After wearing lotus essence

Three thousand soldiers from the Shooting Battalion marched into Shenshui City. Qin Ting twitched his eyebrows and felt that if the prince of the Southern Dynasty lied to him, he might become a sinner who let the enemy go deep in the history of the Great Merchants.

The personal experience of this southern prince Rong Mu is too legendary. He was raised by his majesty in the East Palace earlier, and was despised by the court officials for his status. Suddenly, he became the younger brother of the king of Nandai.

Who is the king of Nandai?

The king of the Southern Dynasty holds the power of the Southern Kingdom. He is a young monarch who is about the same age as his majesty. Not only are his soldiers good at riding and archery, but he is also a marksman who is unique in thousands of miles. Water conservancy irrigates the farmland. Although the soldiers of the Nandai are not as many as their big merchants, the grain of the Nandai can be harvested twice a year!

There are two full crops of summer and autumn!Unlike Dashang, where the climate is dry, it can only be harvested in autumn a year.

What big merchants are most afraid of in war is food consumption, but Nandai is not like this. I heard that their soldiers eat three bowls of rice a day, and their stomachs are round.

Thinking of this, Qin Ting couldn't help feeling a little jealous.

What do those officials know? Now look at the "sympathy" between the prince of the Southern Dynasty and His Majesty. Maybe they can use this connection to purchase military rations from the Southern Dynasty... Qin Ting thought of this, and felt that this It's not impossible, he watched Rong Mu pass through the center of Shenshui City, every soldier's horse's buttocks had heavy bags of dry food, so much, they all spilled out from the mouth.

It's really rich... It's a pity, but it can't be snatched.

Looking at the accompanying guards and military equipment, the Nandai Wang really dotes on his younger brother, who is a direct relative. I don't know if those court officials who used to look down on Rong Mu will tremble in fear when passing through the Jingdu Guard with such a posture.

Qin Ting was right. Rong Mu went through more than a dozen cities without any hindrance, and finally arrived at the transfer station, Dashang Capital. He is very familiar with this site. Within the scope of Kyoto, there is a familiar group of people not far away.

It was Li Suichuan who came after hearing the letter, followed by several court ministers.

Rong Mu's king's car stopped in front of them steadily, and the ten-mile straight road in the suburbs of Beijing still looked the same, but when autumn came, it was not as full of vitality as in early spring, which added a sense of bleakness.

One thing is different, Rong Mu stretched out his hand, and the leader of the Shenshe Battalion at the side helped him out of the carriage.

"How are you, Major General?" Rong Mu said with a smile.

The journey was smooth, and even the master and the soldiers didn't feel tired. On the other hand, the officials of the host, the big merchants, felt a little embarrassed on their faces, and they had to bow down to salute, which they didn't bother to do before. matter.

In this era when the royal aristocracy is the top of the class, a higher rank can really crush people to death.

Li Suichuan was very calm, but there was emotion in his words: "His Royal Highness, I have been dreaming these days. When I reunited with Your Highness, I couldn't understand the double-petal lotus picture on your clothes. I got it, this is the imperial costume of the royal family of the Southern Dynasty, but it was a bit late, and His Highness suffered some grievances in Dashang."

The officials behind him were even more ashamed.

Rong Mu waved his hand, and said quickly: "It's a small matter, thank you for coming to greet me, I'm in a hurry so I won't go into the capital, now you help me find Mi Kong, just say I want to protect you The king lotus petal from the National Temple, if you get it, send it to me as soon as possible, it will be of great help."

Li Suichuan: "..."

Seeing that Li Suichuan didn't move, Rong Mu asked suspiciously: "Why, don't you want to go?"

A group of sharpshooters behind him cast their gazes over.

Li Suichuan: "..."

"It's not that I don't want to go, but this petal should not be in Min Kong's hands long ago."

Rong Mu frowned: "What did you say?"

The abyss and huge pit dug by His Majesty, why do you have to fill it up like a fool?But now Li Suichuan had to face Rong Mu's doubts and the three thousand sharpshooters behind him.

He said with difficulty: "Before Yinyi told me that the lotus petals in Huguo Temple had already been taken away."

Rong Mu: "???"

Li Suichuan: "Don't you know? When you and His Majesty came out of Huguo Temple, His Majesty had already taken it away."

Rong Mu: "..."

Shang Cizhou, you dog!Sure enough, I have already started to doubt it!

He took a deep breath: "Are you sure he took it?"

Li Suichuan nodded: "It's definitely Your Majesty, otherwise no one would dare to touch this thing."

Rong Mu: "Then do you know where Shang Ciri put that thing?"

The few ministers behind Li Suichuan all twitched when they heard him call the Son of Heaven so directly, but this man is not a powerless pet, he is a serious royal family. This younger brother even set aside the magic shooting battalion!

The eyes of everyone in the Shenshe camp were like arrows, and Li Suichuan said under great pressure: "I don't know about that, I'm afraid only His Majesty knows where this thing is."

Rong Mu closed his eyes, feeling the urge to beat wolf dogs thousands of miles away.

Brother Wang's guess is right on this point, Shang Cizhou has long suspected his relationship with Wang Lian, but he has never disappeared suddenly in front of Shang Cizhou, and he has always pretended to be like a person, that's why he is called Didn't quite think of it.

...But this is not something that should be worried at the moment. Since I can't get the Wang Lian petals from earlier, I can only get a fresh emergency from Bi Jiangxue.

It's just that Wang Lian Bi Jiangxue wanted to suppress Nandai's hematemesis, so he didn't bring it with him on this trip. Anyway, he was close to Shang Cizhou, and he could also stabilize his figure... But when the time comes, he might have to cut his hair as a lure and transform into flower petals .

Rong Mu felt that thanks to Shang Ci Zhou, he was very innocent towards him, but if he replaced his love brain with a conspiracy mind, it would be hard to say whether his precarious vest could be covered or not.

In Jingdu Wei did not get the lotus petals, Rong Mu could only set off overnight, and because he was stingy when he left, he gave his sharpshooter battalion soldiers a lot of bags of Jingdu's grain supplements.

It is already amazing to bring soldiers from other countries to the big merchants, and to raise soldiers with food from the big merchants. The officials under Shang Cizhou dare not speak out, and the discerning ones even open warehouses to release grain. In order to show favor.

Rong Mu was not that harsh, he frightened them a few times and walked away from Jingdu Wei.

Li Suichuan rode a horse and followed him for a while, and said through the beaded curtain of the luxurious car: "Your Highness, His Majesty will be so pleasantly surprised to see you!"

Rong Mu propped his forehead and said lazily: "I hope he still remembers that he is alone, but I heard that Shang Cizhou went mad in Xiyue territory."

Li Suichuan stopped talking, and continued: "Eunuch Lang heard that you were passing by but didn't come in. It was a miserable cry. He bluntly said that the palace without you and His Majesty is as cold as an ice cellar."

Rong Mu: "If you are old and idle, tell Lang Xi to take a few more apprentices if you have nothing to do."

Li Suichuan said again in a muffled voice: "...Your Majesty has always been alone, and with the help of Nandai's sharp arrows on this trip, I think it will be even more powerful."

Rong Mu smiled happily: "Okay, don't flatter me, go back quickly, Jingduwei can't do without a general who defends the city, don't leave all the work to Xia Houyan, lest he ask me to provoke me again."

Only then did Li Suichuan smile brightly: "It's just that I don't feel at ease. Even though so many people are following His Highness, I still feel that I have to give it to each other."

Rong Mu lifted the curtain, raised his eyes and smiled at him: "Alright, win it, let's go back, when Shang Cizhou and I come back, I'll play cuju with you."

Li Suichuan froze on the spot, then watched Rong Mu wave his hand at him, and gradually drifted away surrounded by the sharp shooter battalion.

...has he remembered it all?

Back then in the East Palace, His Majesty took great care of him, even for trivial matters such as kicking Cuju, he had to consult him in advance, and asked Rong Mu to be the final big winner to make him smile. The days at that time were so fast... Blink of an eye In the meantime, the person who was protected behind has grown up, not only became the prince of Nandai, but also commanded and moved so many sharpshooters who only obeyed the orders of Nandai King.

But Li Suichuan was not surprised at all.

Rong Mu is such a person, he is liked by people wherever he goes, at first he likes his appearance, and later he likes his interesting soul, that is an indescribable personality charm... and the bloody deterrent of His Majesty's natural emperor star It's different, this His Highness is a kind of extreme goodness that is in peace with the world.

It seems that anyone who gets close to him will be put into those beautiful eyes and treat each other sincerely.

Li Suichuan stepped on the stirrups, cupped his hands and said in a loud voice: "My subject, Li Suichuan, I respectfully send His Royal Highness King Mu!"

The king's driving ring and jingling bells did not affect the speed at all. The sweaty BMW led the noble master forward, and the dry leaves were slightly curled up in autumn. Li Suichuan stopped in place and repeated in a low voice: "Mr. Respectfully send His Royal Highness King Mu to the imperial capital..."

In the seventh city of Xiyue, Lianyu pitifully bit a piece of lamb leg that was not infected with the disease. The lamb tasted so strong that he almost spit it out in one bite, but it was already a rare cooked food.

Those big merchant soldiers who had just entered the city were so hungry that they would eat their hair and drink their blood. Ernuo is a bastard, and Lianyu would wonder if he died in a corner directly, dragging a quick battle forcibly It's autumn.

The grain transport officer has been avoiding Shang Cizhou for the past few days. If it weren't for Shang Cizhou's method of fighting and slaughtering wherever he went, it is hard to say whether the Dashang army can persist until the seventh city.

"I heard that the rations are already on the way..."

"That's right, it was transported directly from the border city... By the way, the medical officer said whether the disease can be cured? I'm almost dying of worry, brother is still lying on the blanket vomiting and diarrhea!"

"It seems that His Majesty is already torturing the captured Xiyue soldiers... It's just that it's hard to cure it. If Xiyue can cure this disease, why are you still tortured for hundreds of years?"

"...Mother, these dogs have really hard mouths, what kind of brains did Ernor give them!"

"What kind of brains... The brains of parents and wives are all pinched by Ernu! The royal family of Xiyue is so incompetent, no wonder His Majesty looks down on them."

Lianyu listened to them talking and walking. Not long after, a general hurried back from outside: "Your Majesty! Urgent report!"

Lianyu almost spat out a mouthful of mutton leg, and saw the general hurried into the camp. He squatted outside, and vaguely heard a voice coming from inside——

"The food...is missing...the food delivery officer is also missing, the messenger soldier is going to...to investigate..."

Lianyu: "..."

If you dare to rob Shang Cizhou's food, who the hell is looking for death!

Unknowingly...it couldn't be Earl, could it? !

Does this person have itchy feet if he doesn't step on Shang Cizhou's bottom line for a day? ?

Lianyu was suspicious in her heart, and saw Li Lun also hurried back from another direction, with an obvious excited expression on his face, Lianyu followed him in this time, and heard Li Lun say to the superior: "Your Majesty, I found out why Ernu wanted Wang Lian petals!"

Shang Cizhou hummed, closed his eyes and propped his forehead with one hand: "Say."

Li Lun excitedly said: "The king of Xiyue is dead, and Wang Lian will definitely not be used by him. As expected, this bastard is for himself! Your Majesty, Ernu is suffering from a strange disease, and he fears he will die soon!"

Shang Cizhou opened his eyes: "Is he going to die?"

Li Lun nodded: "Exactly! The prince's attendant who escaped from the royal court said that Ernuo has been bleeding from his mouth and nose since the year before last, and he couldn't stop it. This time provoking me is no less than dying." fight!"

"No wonder you're going crazy..." Shang Cizhou said in a low voice, "I couldn't get Wang Lian to save my life, and I didn't forget to feel disgusted and lonely before I died. I just feel sorry for the people of Xiyue, who were scared to death by the lonely along the way. .”

Pitiful?The corner of Lianyu's mouth twitched, I really didn't see how pitiful you are to these people.

"If you want to see people, if you want to see dead bodies, you can't listen to one person's words. You have lost so much food alone, and you have to ask for an explanation from him," Shang Cizhou stretched out his hand and touched the terrain. Picture, and said again: "I heard that there is a water mine in Xiyue, and there is a century-old amethyst growing in the hole under the mine. Is there such a thing?"

Li Lun scratched his head: "There seems to be such a rumor, but it is said that this mine vein is near the Xiyue Royal Court..."

Shang Cizhou said: "Then go to the vicinity of the Xiyue King's Court and ask the garrison to station here first, and take some troops to go and have a look."

Li Lun was curious: "Your Majesty...why do you want this?"

Lianyu slandered: What are you doing? It's not just to please his master with the purple tip... Shang Cizhou's black heart lotus seems to have some true feelings for him.

At this time, I can still remember the master's preferences.

A few people were about to lead their horses, when Li Lun was talking about whether the underwater hole was good or not, at this moment, a captured Xiyue soldier ran out from nowhere, and when he saw them, he knelt down and begged for mercy: "I know where Prince Ernor is! I know where he is! Forgive me!"

Shang Cizhou stopped and turned around. The soldier who was not guarding effectively knelt down to plead guilty with a panicked face. He waved his hand: "It's nothing, let him talk."

The Xiyue soldier glanced left and right in panic and said: "The prince is hiding...in the royal tomb to the east!"

Shang Cizhou said slowly: "Say it again, where is the royal tomb?"

The Xiyue soldier didn't dare to look at the killing god at all, he just nodded his head and said: "East, east!"

Shang Cizhou: "Is he in the tomb of the royal family of Xiyue?"

"Yes Yes!"

Li Lun calculated the map: "Your Majesty, the location of the Xiyue King's Mausoleum seems to be in the opposite direction of the Amethyst Water Mine..."

Shang Cizhou tilted his head, looked at the Xiyue soldier who suddenly jumped out and said, "This costume should be Ernu's personal soldier?"

Li Lun glanced at him: "Exactly, this person is sneaky, and he was caught before he had time to torture him."

Shang Ciri let out a long cry, and suddenly took two steps forward, lifted the head of the Xiyue soldier with his toes, and looked at it carefully with downcast eyes.

Lianyu had a bad premonition, and as expected, the next second, the emperor stepped on his toe and broke the opponent's phalanx.

The scream came instantly, Lianyu closed her eyes tightly, and silently said "Master protects the body from all evils".

Shang Cizhou said in a slow tone: "Gu ask again, where is Ernu?"

"The king, the tomb of the king—"

Shang Cizhou shook his head and sighed, and pulled out a short dagger from his waist: "You say you have to make it difficult for Gu, don't you? How can Gu have so much time to play with your prince..."

"Where is he?" The tip of the knife pierced the Xiyue soldier's ribs.

The man bit blood out of his mouth, facing Shang CiZhou's approaching every step of the way, he repeated anxiously: "East, Wang Ling!"

Shang Ciri raised his knife and said quickly, "Is the royal tomb in the east or the water mine in the west?"

"Royal Tomb—"

Shang Cizhou repeated three times to ask if Ernu was in the royal tomb, and each time a large piece of flesh and blood fell down. Just when Lianyu thought he was going crazy again, he suddenly heard the emperor smiled softly and changed his words abruptly. Said: "Tell Gu, is he right in the water mine?"

The Xiyue soldier was already out of shape, his eyes were empty, and when he heard this sudden change of voice under extreme fear, the defense line in his heart collapsed in an instant, and he even had a feeling that if he told the truth, he would The strange feeling of being able to hear the gentle voice in the ear again.

"he is……"

Shang Cizhou lowered his eyes and wiped the stain on the dagger, and said softly: "Yes, tell Gu that he is in the water mine, isn't he?"

With horror in her eyes, Lianyu saw the Xiyue soldier spitting out blood, and said with a strange smile: "Yes... yes, in the water mine... at the bottom of the water mine... in the hollowed-out cliff cave."

Shang Cizhou nodded: "That's right, Li Lun."

Li Lun woke up like a dream: "The minister is here!"

Shang Cizhou: "Give him a good time."

Li Lun: "...Yes, Your Majesty."

Lianyu didn't even react to Shang Cizhou's series of interrogation techniques, and when she came back to her senses, she thought carefully and shuddered with fear.

The big merchant iron cavalry has already approached the royal court of Xiyue. No matter how deep Ernu hides, they can't withstand such a country-destroying advance search. They may have been extremely close to Ernu. Just now, they almost fell for Ernu. The trick of turning the tiger away from the mountain.

Shang Cizhou sensed that something was wrong, so he used his plan to attack his heart, and drove the Xiyue soldier crazy to ask the real answer. It is estimated that Ernuo didn't expect it. He was caught by Shang Cizhou just the first time he went out of the cave to test Bastard tail.

"It's true that wicked people have their own grind... Ernu killed the people in so many territories just for his own selfish desires, and he probably never expected to meet such a ruthless person as Shang Cizhou... He has committed so many crimes, but in the end he was not planted here In the hands of the evil star, Shang Cizhou can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people."

Shang Cizhou stepped on Wuchai, Lianyu is a koi fish born with good luck, at this moment his heart skipped a beat and he said: "Hey!"

The emperor turned back: "What? You want to go too?"

Lianyu's face was delicate: "I don't want to go with you, just to remind you one thing, the grasshopper after autumn is also a grasshopper, and the teeth of the rabbit can bite people, you should bring more soldiers, Earl is treacherous, more than you I am more familiar with the terrain of the water mine... You are well, and it is also for the peace of mind of my master."

Only then did Shang Cizhou smile sincerely, "Okay... Lianyu, do you think Ting Zhi will like amethyst?"

Lianyu's eyes were complicated: "The master is noble, so he will like such a beautiful little thing."

Shang Cizhou lowered his head and smiled: "Well, Gu will get him some more, and the chalcedony lotus will be carved soon."

Lianyu looked at Wu Zhui and swept his tail, Shang Cizhou was about to leave the garrison camp.

There was a red light in his eyes, and he suddenly said loudly: "Your Majesty!"

The Golden Crow was just rising, and it shone thinly on Shang Cizhou's side face, and there were freshly stained blood drops on it.

He said, "What's the matter?"

Lianyu pursed her lips, but still couldn't help reminding slightly: "The grass around the water mine is soft, and the hollows inside are mostly eroded. Some of the interior areas are huge and can accommodate people, and some places are dead ends that cannot be turned back. If you encounter danger, The choice is to choose a place with a thick water column and a large space, and never approach a narrow and narrow place, where the water flows backwards, and entering is a dead end."

Shang Cizhou paused almost imperceptibly, and nodded: "Understood."
