It was pouring rain, and the forest was smoky.

On the muddy path in the forest at the foot of Guan Mountain, two small figures could be vaguely seen.

These two people, one is Xiao Shu'an, Princess Yong'an of Zhou State, and the other is her servant.

A few days ago, Lin Xiu, a hermit in this Guan mountain, suddenly became famous among the five kingdoms.Today is the era of the separation of the five countries.Every country is thirsty for talents, and recruits them one after another, hoping to find a great talent to help them expand their territories and unify the five countries.

Lin Xiu's rise to fame stems from Zhao Cong's attack on the northern barbarians.Since the five kingdoms stood side by side for more than 500 years, Zhao Guo has developed into the most powerful country among the five kingdoms.Zhao Cong, who was in the year of destiny, wanted to give him a vast country before passing the throne to Prince Zhao Duan as his body became more and more tired.

The five countries have stood side by side for a long time, no matter how strong or weak, no one dares to annex anyone easily.Every country understands the reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold.Countries have intertwined allies and complex relationships.It is not easy to unify the five countries.

So Zhao Cong turned his attention to the barbarians in the north. Not long ago, Zhao Cong personally led an army of 30 to attack the barbarians.I thought it would be easy, but I didn't want Zhao Cong to be besieged in Beiai Mountain for seven days and nights by the Barbarian King.

In the end, Zhao Cong was able to return to the country, and he had to thank Lin Xiu, who was in the country of Zhao, for giving an idea to the second prince of the country of Zhao, so that he finally returned to Zhao.

The king of a country was in danger for seven days and seven nights, and even with an army of 30, there was nothing he could do.But Lin Xiuyuan is thousands of miles away, but he can break the siege of Mount Ai, an expert!

Xiao Shu'an came here for this reason, and this trip was only for one person - Lin Xiu.

There is a dilapidated temple at the foot of Guanshan Mountain, which has been in dilapidated condition for a long time.The roof was already covered with cobwebs, and the ground was covered with fallen leaves blown by the strong wind, mixed with year after year of dust, tightly entangled.

It is raining heavily today, and there are guests in the mountains.The dilapidated temple also welcomed visitors.

"I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out." A man who was sheltering from the rain in the temple muttered dissatisfiedly, wringing the rainwater from his clothes with his hands.

"Can't figure out what?" The man in blue standing next to him asked lightly.This person is Zhao Duan, Prince Zhao, and the other man is his entourage.

Zhao Duan turned his back to the door and put his hands behind his back.Even though his brocade clothes were soaked through, and the tick-tock was soaked around him, he didn't care.I just admire the statue of the Bodhisattva in the temple with one broken arm and one foot missing, just like admiring a painting.

"Your Highness, you are still in the mood to look at this broken Bodhisattva. You are not afraid of getting cold in the rain." Zhao Fen, a follower, saw that Zhao Duan was still in the mood to enjoy the scenery, and was a little anxious.

"Where is it so fragile? I am a dignified seven-foot man from the Zhao Kingdom. I am not afraid of killing enemies on the battlefield, but would I be afraid of this thunderstorm?" Zhao Duan still didn't care about the weather outside the house. He walked forward, got closer, and carefully Looking at the Bodhisattva statue.

"You dare to say disrespectful words in front of the Bodhisattva statue, Zhao Fen, be careful that the Bodhisattva is angry with you." After Zhao Duan finished speaking, he smiled towards the Bodhisattva statue, and stretched out his hand to wipe the thick dust off the stone statue.

Zhao Fen frowned helplessly: "Your Highness!"

"You haven't said it yet, why can't you figure it out?" Zhao Duan ignored Zhao Fen's anxiety.

"Hmph." Zhao Fen replied helplessly, "I don't understand why Your Majesty asked Your Highness to invite you to personally invite Mr. Lin out of the mountain. Although he has made some contributions to His Majesty, he is not honorable enough to let you come. Myself It’s raining, and if you get sick again, I think Mr. Lin can afford it.”

"Hey! What do you know?" Zhao Duan chuckled and continued to clean up the ruined Bodhisattva statues. "Father sent me here just for a show. Now the Five Kingdoms are thirsty for talents. I, the prince and corporal, are showing my country Zhao's demeanor and respect for talents."

Zhao Duan turned around: "This is just a play, understand?"

"Hmm... I seem to understand."

"Idiot, you know how to practice martial arts all day long, and read more when you have nothing to do, so you can save yourself from finding a wife."

Zhao Fen was about to refute, but he heard footsteps behind him.Zhao Duan also stopped what he was doing and turned around.

I saw two pairs of wet feet wearing leather boots scrambling through the puddles and puddles in the rain and mist, splashing mud, rushing to the temple.

Zhao Duan looked up and saw a handsome face.The nose is high and narrow, the eyebrows are thick and slender, and the skin is as delicate as the best tofu he has ever eaten.

This man is so handsome.Although the attendants around him were much inferior, they were also very handsome.Zhao Duan suddenly became interested in the intruding duo.

Xiao Shu'an was a little embarrassed by Zhao Duan's looking him up and down with a smile that was not a smile.She lowered her head and glanced at her chest without missing a trace, and calmed down: "It's raining suddenly, so I borrowed the temple to take shelter for a while. Please forgive me for disturbing you."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Shu'an walked to the corner of the temple with his entourage Rufeng, several meters away from Zhao Duan's master and servant.This appearance of not wanting to have an intersection made Zhao Duan even more interested.

"I'm Zhao Duan, dare to ask the young master's name."

Rufeng was about to speak, but Xiao Shuan took the first step.

"Xiao She."

When Xiao Shuan opened his mouth, his voice was clear and calm.Duan Duan has a good face, I didn't expect such a voice...

"Cough cough... Xiao family? Ganzhou Xiao family?"

"It's not that noble, it's just an ordinary Xiao family who is left behind."

Ganzhou, the capital of Zhou State.The five kingdoms were crowned kings by the Han Dynasty, and later became independent states.Therefore, most countries are governed by clans with the same surname.

The Xiao family is exactly the surname of the state of Zhou.

Xiao Shuan denied her identity.Zhao Duan looked at Xiao Shu'an's delicate white dress, the patterns on it could be seen to be embroidered with gold silk.Low-key, but still exudes dignity.

It appears that the person did not wish to reveal his identity.

"You don't ask who I am?"

"Zhao Duan, Prince Zhao." Xiao Shu'an said concisely.As early as when Zhao Duan reported his name, she knew the identity of this person.Thinking about it again, I guessed the purpose of their trip very well.

"Brother is not in the temple, but he is very concerned about the affairs of the temple." This is the first time Zhao Duan has seen such an arrogant person, and no one has ever been so disinterested in him.

"It's you who are too high-profile."

Thinking that the purpose of Zhao Duan's trip was the same as his own, Xiao Shu'an felt a little anxious.Compared with Zhou Guo and Zhao Guo, no one would choose Zhou Guo.The state of Zhao is prosperous and prosperous, the ruler is wise and his ministers are upright, and it is the most powerful state among the five states.

Talented scholars all over the world are proud to be officials in Zhao State, and in Zhao State, talents and knowledge can be stretched.On the other hand, Zhou Guo is the weakest country among the five countries.It is located in a remote place, and the climate is not like Zhao's four seasons are like spring.The Zhou State in the northwest is cold in winter and hot in summer, and the water source is not as abundant as Zhao State.

Similarly, the folk customs of Zhou State are not as elegant as those of other countries.The people are unrestrained and rude, and the four kingdoms are inferior to Zhou.Although there have been many wars among the five countries, communication has never been interrupted.Talents come and go between the five countries.There are many people who serve Zhao today and Chu tomorrow, but no one wants to be an official in the state of Zhou.

One is that they can't stand the environment there, and the other is that Zhou's economy is the most backward, and the living conditions are not as good as those of other countries.Third, it is because Zhou Guo's family style is prevalent, and people other than the Xiao family are very repelled from being officials in the court.

It's not that if you don't have the surname Xiao or the aristocratic family of Zhou State, you can't be an official in Zhou State, but you can't be an official with real power.To sum it up in two words - xenophobic!

drop!answer!drop!Xiao Ruo was thinking quietly, the rain on the topknot of her head fell to the ground one after another.For a while, Zhao Duan was so absorbed that he forgot to refute Xiao Shuan's words.

"How long will it take for the rain to stop? It will take a lot of time to go up the mountain. If it keeps going like this, it must be dark before we can go up." Rufeng looked at the rain outside, a little anxious.

The voices of the master and servant are still in the same tone, and the tacit understanding is outrageous.

"You guys want to go up the mountain? Go find Mr. Lin Xiu. Me too. Seeing the rain, it won't stop for a while. Why don't you spend the night here with my master and servant, and it won't be too late to see Mr. Lin together tomorrow morning."

Seeing Xiao Shuan's delicate appearance, Zhao Duan couldn't help being funny.

"Dengtuzi." Rufeng spat out three words.

"Hey, we're all men, why don't you talk about it. Our Highness doesn't have the wind to break his sleeves!" Zhao Fen refused to accept, Zhao Duan did not speak, and looked at Xiao Shu'an playfully.

Xiao Shuan looked at the unabated rain outside the eaves, frowning tightly, with a serious expression.Glancing at Zhao Duan and Zhao Fen who were not far away, she felt ruthless: "Rufeng, go up the mountain."

After speaking, she leaned forward and ran into the rain. The heavy rain hit her thin back, but it didn't bend it a little.Her figure is firm and fearless.

"Okay!" Rufeng didn't have the slightest doubt, and followed Xiao Shuan into the rain.

In the bustling temple just now, only the master and servant were left with their mouths open in surprise.

Looking at the gradually smaller and smaller figure in the rain, Zhao Duan murmured: "You have to be so serious about acting? This Xiao Shu'an is really a lunatic."

"What, isn't he Xiao She? Xiao Shu'an? Your Highness, should we also go up the mountain? What if Mr. Lin is invited away by them?" Zhao Fen was full of question marks.

"What mountain are you going to, they are crazy, I think you are crazy too! It's raining so much, you can't become a drowned chicken after going up the mountain, and you are in a mess, what image do you have! How do you see Mr. Lin?"

Zhao Duan was irritated by Zhao Fen. As a person, he can do everything without regard to trivial matters.Only one thing - image!

On important occasions, Zhao Duan must ensure that he is a suave and suave young man.Drenched?It is impossible in Zhao Duan's life.

"But Your Highness, are you in a mess right now?" Zhao Fen was puzzled.

"Yeah, I'm in a mess right now, so I won't go see Lin Xiu. Wait until the clothes are dry and find some water to wash them before going. Since I'm going to invite someone, it's not good to smell bad. I'm afraid it will smoke Mr. Lin away. .”

"Your Highness is right. It seems that Mr. Xiao is going to return for nothing. Those scholars are most concerned about their appearance. Presumably Mr. Lin will not go with them, so I don't worry about it." Zhao Fenyue The more I thought about it, the more I felt right, and I couldn't help nodding my head affirmatively.

"It has nothing to do with appearance. He is the most elegant son in Guanshan today, and he won't invite Lin Xiu away." Zhao Duan is not worried at all that the person he wants to invite will be robbed.

"Why? Because Mr. Lin doesn't like sissies?" Zhao Fen scratched his head.

"Hey!" Zhao Duan was foolishly laughed by Zhao Fen, "Because they are from Zhou."

Guanshan, Linglong Valley.

"Xiu'er, someone has gone up the mountain."

--------------------

The author has something to say:

The follow-up text is also the second part of this book "Ancestral Wife Chasing Cheats"

Copywriting: At the age of 16, Tan Yuelin left the grassland and embarked on the road of chasing his wife with a copy of "Wife Chasing Cheats" written by her mother herself.

The daughter-in-law was arranged for her by her mother before she was born.It was Lin Si'an, the daughter of the person her mother could not love back then.

Tan Yuelin confidently took out the cheat book, the first strategy: creating solitude.

Lin Si'an: Tan Yuelin!You actually dragged me into the brothel!

Tan Yuelin looked at the entangled body in front of the two, and blushed: I... I didn't see clearly that this is a brothel...

Tan Yuelin once again confidently took out the cheat book, the second strategy: the hero saves the beauty.

Lin Si'an, who was taking a bath, looked angry: Tan Yuelin!What are you kicking open my door for?

Tan Yuelin blushed again: I...I thought...you were in danger...

..............................

Tan Yuelin humbly took out the cheat book, and made the last plan: to advance by retreating.

Tan Yuelin's heart was empty, she felt that the cheats on chasing wives that her mother gave her were useless.Sister An'er didn't like her, and even scolded her bloody.Now that she's gone and no one is chasing her, she might be a bachelor for the rest of her life.What about Lin Si'an?Will she marry someone else?Why does it hurt so much just thinking about it?

"Tan Yuelin! Didn't you say you want to marry me, who allowed you to run back to the grassland by yourself?"

"Sister An'er!"

Lin Si'an: Although the follower is not very smart, he is confident and handsome for only three seconds, but he is good-looking.A smile on a handsome face almost melts people."Sister" Susu yelled, who can refuse?

Soft, sweet and well-behaved little milk dog *does not eat fireworks and vinegar, exquisite person
