Asking hexagram 20 taels

Before Yuan Xiao came in, Tang Yuan was leaning on the head of the bed in the big tent, with a pot of charcoal fire beside him, nodding his head and dozing off.As soon as he came in, Tang Yuan woke up suddenly, and opened his mouth to say: "Did something happen?"

"No one will tell about the North Pass, don't worry." Yuan Xiao took off the cloak on his body and shook off the snow on it.

"Oh..." Tang Yuan's voice gradually dropped again, his head was lowered, a strand of hair slipped from his shoulders and dangled dangerously on top of the charcoal fire.

Yuan Xiao hung the cloak on the wall, saw him walking over quickly, squatted down and stretched out his hand to smooth the strand of hair that was about to be burned by the fire behind his ear: "If you want to sleep, why don't you go to bed?"

Tang Yuan rubbed his eyes, stretched out two arms to hang on him, half-closed his eyes and said in a daze, "I don't want to sleep... I just want to rest for a while."

Putting his hands on Tang Yuan's waist and picking him up, Yuan Xiao whispered in his ear half-persuading and half-coaxingly: "Okay, okay, rest for a while, go to bed and rest, okay?" One foot kicked up and landed on the ground rolled the blanket twice to cover Tang Yuan, put his arms across his waist and held him in his arms, "I'll accompany you."

Tang Yuan nestled in Yuan Xiao's arms, his little snoring was bubbling, and he heard Yuan Xiao talking while he was half asleep and half awake.

"You rest first, and I'll talk. The promise to take you to see the lights on the fifteenth day may not work now. I just gave an order to withdraw from the gate. I think the sky in Chaotang is about to change."

"Well...he changed him, it's none of our business." Tang Yuan babbled twice, turned around and fell asleep completely with Yuan Xiao's hand on his pillow.

"That's right, it's none of our business." Yuan Xiao looked down at Tang Yuan who was already asleep, his face was a bit blurred under the dim light in the tent, his brows were stretched in his arms, sweet and sweet It made people feel at ease, affected by Tang Yuan's drowsiness, Yuan Xiao pulled the blanket over his body and closed his eyes, "I will not accept the military orders abroad..."

Thousands of miles away, the peach blossoms in the Peach Blossom Valley have sprouted new buds, and the spring breeze blows in through the narrow valley mouth, like a gentle hand caressing the delicate new buds of the peach blossom tree, and also caressing the corner of Wang Chengqian's clothes.

Sitting on the bluestone board under the tree, Wang Chengqian was stroking the broken Chenggan sword with both hands. He stared blankly at the grass sprouts that had just sprouted on the ground, and asked after a while: "I really used this kind of sword before." something?"

Even if the sword is broken, you can still feel the sword energy that is so sharp that it will cut the skin of a person. This kind of weapon that is not ordinary at first glance is actually the one I have used before. ?

He sat cross-legged on the bluestone board again, put his hands flat on his knees, closed his eyes and calmed down, trying to find the internal force in his dantian enough to control this divine weapon.

But I can't find it, no matter what.The dantian was empty, and there was nothing worth seeing in the meridians, just like his memory, which was blank and nothing to write about.Hearing about the "top ten masters of the rivers and lakes" and "the young master of Bafeng Mountain Villa" from other people's mouths is like listening to a story from heaven, and it seems to have no connection with his life.

"Wang Shaoxia, are you doing well today?" Shen Duan's junior brother Gao Shiyu carried a medicine basket on his back, poured the medicinal materials he had just dug from the mountain on the medicinal sieve, and knocked on the edge of the sieve to sift some of the soil on the medicinal materials.

"It's okay." Wang Chengqian stood up, brushed off his clothes, walked to him, and stood awkwardly holding the hem of his clothes, "That...Master Gao, let me help you."

"No need," Gao Shiyu held the edge of the sieve with one hand, turned around Wang Chengqian, reached out and put the sieve on the shelf, "Wang Shaoxia, you can take care of your wounds. ——And don't call me little master, I'm not Shaolin disciples, just call me Shiyu."

"Oh..." Wang Chengqian sat down again, "Then Gao Xiao... no, Shiyu, then don't call me Wang Shaoxia, just call me by my name."

"That's not going to work, I can't bark at random. Just call the names of the seniors in Jianghu casually, the big brother will teach me."

"Senior Jianghu? Am I really a senior Jianghu?"

"Of course," Gao Shiyu replied while picking out the sun-dried herbs one by one from the sieve, "Wang Shaoxia will naturally remember you when you recover your memory."

"Can I really restore my memory..." Wang Chengqian murmured, "I don't have any memory at all."

As he was saying this, he suddenly heard Gao Shiyu's voice, and suddenly became high-pitched: "Hey, big brother, you are here."

He also raised his head and looked in the direction of Taniguchi, wearing a blue shirt with a smile on his brows and a sword on his waist, it really was Taohuagu Senior Brother Shen Duan coming.

He stood up again, straightened the corner of his clothes, and said with a smile: "Hero Shen, you are here."

Shen Duan was carrying a cloth bag behind his back. He walked to the front of the house, opened the cloth bag, took out a bag of food and handed it to Gao Shiyu, saying: "I brought it from the main hall in Luoyang, you and Wang Chenggan should share it." .”

Gao Shiyu took it over and unwrapped the hemp rope, and sure enough, it contained the most famous pastry in Luoyang Peach Blossom Valley - Peach Blossom Crisp.This peach cake is made from the brightest peach petals in the season in Peach Blossom Valley, the best honey and flour, and made by the most skillful girls in Peach Blossom Valley.Usually, money is hard to buy, and Gao Shiyu seldom eats it. The most common ones who have this kind of food, except for Shen Duan, the senior brother, are the only patients who are lucky enough to catch up.

"Hey, Senior Brother Xie." Gao Shiyu said this, and walked into the door with his bag, leaving only Shen Duan and Wang Chengqian who was at a loss outside the door.

"Sit down, how are you feeling recently?" Shen Duan asked gently.

"I'm... not bad," Wang Chengqian replied, "I just... still can't remember."

"Well, that's normal. After the Chenggan sword was broken. You forced the Chenggan sword so that you went crazy, and Peach Blossom Valley took a lot of effort to drag you back from the brink of death." Shen Duan moved over from the side. The little stool also sat down, looking like he was going to have a long talk with Wang Chengqian, "Your memory is probably sealed up by yourself, and the medicine stone in Peach Blossom Valley can't do anything about it, it all depends on your own wishes." .”

"Then I must have been a bad person before."

"No, no, you were a very famous swordsman before you got mad. It's more famous than famous. One of the top ten masters in the Jianghu, the famous name is like thunder. It's just that the sword is connected with your blood, and the sword is broken. As a swordsman born for the sword, he will naturally be affected by it."

"Then it's better for me to remember, or not to remember?" Wang Chengqian looked puzzled.

Only then did Shen Duan look at him seriously, this kind of expression is really rare on Cheng Jinjin's face, it's better to say that he has never seen it before.When did the young owner of Bafeng Villa, a swordsman who became famous at the age of 16, show such an expression?What is there to make him wonder?

Maybe people lose their memory, because they are not the same person before.The young swordsman who became famous at a young age in fresh clothes and angry horses actually died long ago with the shattering of the Chengqian sword.

Shen Duan tried his best to save Wang Chengqian's life. He thought he had successfully resisted the destiny, but in fact he finally found that the destiny cannot be violated.Taoist Tianji's original order for Wang Chengqian "live for the sword, die for the sword" is indeed correct.

Wang Chengqian is dead.

In the first spring of March, for ninety days, Yuan Xiao excused the unstable situation in Gubei City and led the Yuan family army to stay in Gubei City without leaving the city. When they needed food and grass, they would go to Beikoukou Granary to rob them, and sometimes they would go out of the city to fight the remaining big ones. Wan Jun.

No matter how dissatisfied the current emperor is with the Yuan family army, he would not dare to do anything to the Yuan family army at will when the Seven Kings are staring at him.On the contrary, the seven kings had no fear, and attacked from all sides in the court to gather forces.

Rumors have also spread among the people that "the current Holy Majesty is not of royal blood".In fact, such rumors had been rampant as early as a few years ago, but at that time, the Holy One was in power and directly punished the people who spread the rumors to the Nine Clans.He also directly issued an order to kill the source of the rumors - Laifengzhuang. The battle that made Yuan Xiao famous in the first battle was an order to cover up the truth.

How can the seven kings let this go if they want to seize power now?

Today's Holy Majesty, I don't know whether it is arrogance or greed, he tried to intervene in the Central Plains martial arts, and it is not arrogant to drive the nail directly into the Wuwei Pavilion, and the owner of the Wuwei Pavilion, Xie Sanchuan, almost died at the hands of the emperor's personal guards.

Xie Sanchuan is a smart person, smart people will always find smart people to cooperate in doing things, there is no doubt that Seven Kings is the best candidate for cooperation.

The Wuwei Pavilion has great influence among the people, and the network of relationships is like the root of a big tree, which is deep and wide. Even if the emperor has the help of the new faction in the cabinet, he still cannot fully understand the bottom of the Wuwei Pavilion.Xie Sanchuan was different, he was originally the son of the old pavilion master, and he knew everything about the affairs of the pavilion. He contacted these low-level forces in the Wuwei Pavilion in private, and promised to make a lot of money without worrying about no one doing things for him.

It's just a rumor that Xie Sanchuan can do it just by raising his finger.

With the aspirations of the people, the Seven Kings will naturally get twice the result with half the effort, and it is only a matter of time before the ruling and the opposition change.

The nails laid by the Seven Kings in the early years finally came in handy, and the dangerous figure of the eunuch serving food finally came to the front of the stage

The people in the eunuch's room reported the death of the eunuch serving food early in the morning, and then something happened in the imperial hospital - the current emperor has been poisoned not long ago.

This poison theory is not surprising, after all, it is much more common than drinking poison to quench thirst mentioned by Tang Yuan, but this poison is common, but the poison enters the meridians, and the medicine stone has no cure, even if the gods are alive, it is difficult to save.

On that day, the Supreme Hospital was ordered to die. This matter must not be revealed, but there is no impenetrable wall in the world. After a few days, it spread all over the government and the public. It won't be long before the punishment is ordered.

Youyou's mouth was like a sharp sword, and the courtiers were in an uproar.The emperor was hijacked and abdicated, the young emperor took the throne, and the seven kings served as regents, above ten thousand people.

The fall of the emperor is not as good as nothing, and he is locked up in the deep palace waiting to die. The seven kings even come to him often to reminisce about the old days, and they don't know whether they really want to reminisce or show off.

The last time the Seven Kings came to him was to tell him that he would ascend the throne tomorrow.

"The young emperor was weak and unable to cope with state affairs. As the regent, I took orders in the face of danger."

He laughed maniacally and said nothing else.

Instead, the Seven Kings looked at him strangely and asked, "What exactly do you want?"

"I want this world." He suddenly fell silent.

"You already owned the world before."

"I hold the power of the world in my hand, but I have always been uneasy. Am I not good enough to be a prince? Why do I have to compete with you for the throne? Am I not good enough to be an emperor? Why is everyone talking about me after dinner? The mother and concubine's nonsense? If it's not your family's seed, can you not get involved in the throne? Hahahahahahahaha, he laughed wildly, but I just want to sit on your family's throne, mess up your family's world, and kill you One by one is orthodox, one by one is dragged to hell, when I dream back in the middle of the night, it is the face of the late emperor, and you don’t want to dream until dawn at night." He laughed crazily, even if the Seven Kings had already left. have no idea.

what do you want?

Want the world...

Does it have to be the world?

no……

You want the kite on the tree in the imperial garden, the inkstone that was overturned by the Imperial College, the Liuxin mooncakes in the small kitchen on August [-]th, the grapes from the Western Regions on the desk, you want to smile often, you want to live a long life, and you want good weather. We want peace and prosperity for the country and the people.

It doesn't matter if you don't want the world.

But he could never say those words.
