sword

Added a touch of reproach.

"But in case something happens in the mountains, and you don't have someone absolutely reliable by your side, I don't worry." Yang Xiao pulled up the quilt for Madam Yang. The habit of covering Mrs. Yang with a quilt anytime and anywhere.

"Brother Xiao, the older you get, the more confused you become. Who am I? I'm your junior sister, the swordsman Meng Huan." Mrs. Yang patted Yang Xiao lightly.

"Yes, I even forgot that my A Huan is a Jianghu swordsman, he is old and old." Yang Xiao laughed.

"Brother Xiao, don't make me worry." After a while, Madam Yang's voice floated over with warmth.

"I'm just taking Xiao Liu, let's sleep," Yang Xiao said slowly.

The next day.

Chu Jiangqiu was drinking medicine and Xiao Shi ran in and said, "Senior Brother Six, Master said that he will take you and senior brother to Hexi in two days, and asked you to prepare in these two days, and leave when you recover from your injuries."

Chu Jiangqiu frowned. What was going on with Liu Shichen? He wanted to ask Master to go to Hexi by himself. He asked, "Did Master say something?"

"It seems to be treating his younger brother. I don't know the details. I overheard what the master and his wife said, but I didn't hear it clearly. The younger brother of the master, isn't that our uncle? Why have I never heard of it?" We still have a master uncle like this." Xiao Shi stretched his arms and began to eat Chu Jiangqiu's candied fruit again.

"You are a child, why do you have so many questions, and you still eavesdrop on what Master and Mistress are saying, see if I don't tell Master." Chu Jiangqiu snatched the candied fruit from Xiao Shi's hand.

"Didn't you ask me?" Xiao Ten felt aggrieved.

"Go back to your courtyard, you will know to eat my candied fruit, this is for me..." Chu Jiangqiu growled and realized something was wrong, so he stopped talking.

"Hmph, Senior Sister has senior brother preparing candied fruit. I don't need you. I saw them hugging each other yesterday. You should give up. Also, if Master didn't let me come, I wouldn't bother to talk to you. Goodbye, I even made an appointment with a beautiful woman." Brother playing together" Xiao Shi put Hot Wheels on his feet and disappeared in a flash.

Chu Jiangqiu sighed inwardly: I have been with my junior sister for so long, and I have never even held her hand.

When Chu Jiangqiu arrived outside the gate of Liu Shichen's courtyard, he heard Xiao Shi's cheers. He stood outside the door and saw Liu Shichen dancing his sword through the crack of the door, while Xiao Ten was sitting on a small stone bench next to him and applauding.

Liu Shichen changed into a dark blue shirt today, and his complexion became fairer. He didn't look like a martial arts practitioner. Chu Jiangqiu looked at his dark and rough arms and muttered silently.

"Brother beauty, your sword dance is so beautiful, it's like dancing, and your sword moves are perfect," Xiao Ten cheered.

Liu Shichen smiled lightly, licked his dry lips, and said, "Xiao Shi, I don't have enough internal energy, this sword move is useless no matter how well I play it."

"Brother Beauty, you have practiced martial arts since childhood, how could you lack internal energy?" Xiao Ten was puzzled.

"My body can't store internal strength." Liu Shichen also sat down and said with a slight smile.

"What kind of disease is it? I'll go to Master to help you find out," Xiao Ten hurriedly said.

Liu Shichen shook his head, and pushed Xiao Shi who had stood up back onto the stool.

"Then you teach me, I will always protect you after you teach me." Xiao Shi looked at Liu Shichen with bright eyes.

"Okay." Liu Shichen patted Xiao Shi's head.

"Cough cough cough..." Chu Jiangqiu felt that it was necessary to let these two people know that someone was coming.

"Brother Chu is here." Liu Shichen, who had been smiling brightly just now, resumed his faint smile.

He was obviously smiling so happily just now, this person must be a chameleon, Chu Jiangqiu snorted coldly in his heart.

"Senior Brother Six, why are you here?" Little Eleven looked disgusted.

"Since you're here, sit down, Brother Chu has something important to do?"

It's okay so I can't come?Chu Jiangqiu thought to himself, but on the surface he said: "I will go to Hexi with Master in two days. What happened to your Master? Why is the disease so serious that Master needs to go to Hexi by himself?"

Liu Shichen glanced at Chu Jiangqiu, and said slowly, "The limbs are gradually freezing."

"It's not that you haven't cultivated a complete heart..." Chu Jiangqiu just said, when he found that Xiao Shi was still looking at him and Liu Shichen with a confused face, he immediately said: "Xiao Shi, you go back, I have something to discuss with Brother Liu, adults talk to children No onlookers allowed."

"I'm not a child, I won't go back." Xiao Shi suddenly stood up, pouted.

Then Chu Jiangqiu stretched his muscles and bones, sharpened his fists, and asked, "Are you going back?"

"You are bullying the small with the big, and the weak with the strong," Xiao Shi walked away cursing.

"I'll bully you, don't come here again, do you hear me?" Chu Jiangqiu shouted loudly.

"So your master took away half of the Heart Sutra back then, and those who haven't practiced the complete Heart Sutra, without Master Xuedan's body protection, will become quadriplegic and bedridden after a long time," Chu Jiangqiu said in a low voice.

"En." Liu Shichen looked at the glowing sunset in the west and responded.

"You know their stories now?" Chu Jiangqiu asked.

"That's right," Liu Shichen replied.

"Can you tell me?" Chu Jiangqiu looked up at Liu Shichen.

"No, someone suitable will tell you." Liu Shichen's voice suddenly became erratic.

"Master?" Chu Jiangqiu did not give up.

"Maybe, maybe not," Liu Shichen said with a faint smile.

Duan Wangfu.

"My lord, there's news from Qingcheng Mountain that they're leaving on the first day of October, do I need to follow up?" Qiao Mu reported while hugging his sword.

"No, I have my own arrangements. You and Qiao Song can stay here. I need you to do something else." Chu Yu shook his hand.

"Yes" Qiao Mu backed away after finishing speaking.

After a while, Butler Wang knocked on the door.

"My lord, madam is making trouble again, and she said that she will divorce your new concubine," Wang Butler said through the door.

Chu Yu sighed and said, "Go down, I'll deal with it."

When Chu Yu entered the bedroom, there were pieces of debris on the floor, not even the porcelain pillow was spared. He said in a deep voice, "Have you had enough trouble? I've had enough trouble and I'll call someone to clean it up."

"No, you haven't seen me for half a month, and you married a concubine yesterday, do you really don't want me anymore?" Qin Yi started sobbing after shouting.

Chu Yu pulled Qin Yi's arm around his waist abruptly, and said, "Can you stop making trouble for no reason, the last time the emperor rewarded my dancer girl, you sold it out the next day, you are as good as me Where is it, where is the emperor's brother?"

"I don't care. I don't want you to look at other women. You have already taken in a concubine. I can bear it. If you still want to take in, believe it or not, I will send her out tomorrow." Qin Yi couldn't stop crying.

"As you wish," Chu Yu said and walked out.

Steward Wang then followed.

"My lord, I have ordered someone to tidy up the bedroom. Just now, my wife told me to send out the one you newly adopted tomorrow. Look?" Steward Wang glanced at Chu Yu's expression from time to time.

"Let her go, or she'll give me a headache." Chu Yu rubbed her temples, and said slowly, "I won't go to sleep in the bedroom today, you can tidy up the study for me."

"Then madam?" Butler Wang hesitated.

"I am the master of this house or she is the master. She is in charge of where I sleep. What else can she do besides having a backer who keeps pressing me down?" Chu Yu said angrily.

Tai Chi Temple.

"Your Majesty, there is news from the mountains that they are leaving on the first day of October." Eunuch Li stepped forward and handed Chu Jing a note.

Chu Jing glanced at it, then put it down.

"Where's Prince Duan's Mansion?" Chu Jing asked casually while lying on the couch.

"Today King Duan took a concubine, and Mrs. Duan made a big fuss, and she quarreled with King Duan again, saying that she would send this concubine out tomorrow." Eunuch Li knelt down for Chu Jing and began to pinch his legs.

"How does Prince Duan react?" Chu Jing closed his eyes and rested.

"Prince Duan was disturbed so badly that he had to go with her. After all, Taifu Qin was once the teacher of the late emperor, and he was deeply respected by the late emperor. Although he didn't like Taifu Qin's daughter, he didn't dare to neglect her, but the relationship was tense. Today, King Duan also said that Taifu Qin's daughter is useless, except that she has a backer." Eunuch Li laughed, but his subordinates kept on going.

"Really?" Chu Jing suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Eunuch Li with a smile in his eyes, but fell into the cold cave.

Eunuch Li's back felt cold, and he said with a sneer: "That's true", thinking in his heart: It's really the heart of an emperor, immeasurable.

"Your Majesty, the empress is here." A little father-in-law outside opened the curtain and came in to report.

"Please come in quickly." Chu Jing suddenly smiled brightly, without a trace of chill.Seeing this, Eunuch Li quietly retreated.

"Your Majesty" Li Yujiao heard his voice before seeing him.

"Why is Jiaoer here?" Chu Jing pulled Li Yujiao to sit on her lap, and covered Li Yujiao's hand in her own.

"Your Majesty will come naturally if you think about it." Li Yujiao rubbed against Chu Jing's arms.

"Did Cheng'er and Xin'er bother you?" Chu Jing asked with a smile.

"Cheng'er has become much better in the past few days, and she is becoming more and more like a big brother. Xin'er is not clinging to me anymore, she only knows to look for her brother every day." Li Yujiao looked sad.

"It's enough for you to have me." Chu Jing kissed the corner of Li Yujiao's mouth.

Li Yujiao giggled.

"Jiao'er, why are you looking for me so late?" Chu Jing asked.

"My second brother has been helping His Majesty to solve problems since he served as the salt transport envoy, and the national treasury is getting fuller day by day. However, the prince Taifu wrote a letter the day before yesterday saying that my cousin was reselling private salt, and that he would strictly investigate. You know he has been at odds with my cousin. Deal with it, so I'm afraid he has selfish intentions." Li Yujiao put his arms around Chu Jing's neck.

"I have seen Wang Zhi's memorial, and I am also aware of Li Zhan's contribution. There is indeed something strange about this matter, and we will discuss it at court tomorrow." Chu Jing looked at Li Yujiao and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Yujiao shyly kissed Chu Jing's forehead.
