Wait a minute, heroine

The sky was getting dark, and the lights in the palace were turned on in advance.

In the warehouse filled with dazzling treasures, the Queen Mother looked dignified and noble, standing in front of the beauty screen, admiring the lifelike paintings.

Hongyu might be afraid that the Queen Mother would learn bad things, so she asked her to polish the mirror when she was bored. Her expression was quite nervous, and she was always looking for novel objects around her, trying to attract the Queen Mother's attention.

Not long after the master and servant were arguing, footsteps and soft chatter came from outside the warehouse:

"Not talking about the common people, the scholars have worked hard all their lives, and all they want is to be 'higher than the princes'. King Wu is a good man and has no luxury in the world. What kind of rebellion can he make..."

"Children of the royal family have been pampered since they were young. It is difficult for them to endure hardships and improve their memory. It is not uncommon for them to do stupid things. If you have such a big palace and three hundred beauties in the back house, wouldn't you even leave the house?"

"well……"

When the Queen Mother heard the familiar clear voice, her expression froze and she wanted to hide the big screen. However, she immediately recalled the offense and atrocities done to her by the Night Terror Hall. She thought about it for a moment and did not hide it. She just trotted to the Big Jade Buddha not far away. In front of the Buddha, put your hands together and worship the Bodhisattva seriously.

Soon, the maid came to the door, and a group of three people entered through the door.

Ye Jingtang looked as serious as an imperial guard. After entering the door and seeing the round and round figure of the Queen Mother, he stepped a little slower and tried to look calm and composed.

Dongfang Liren still adhered to the rules in front of Ye Jingtang, and bowed when he walked nearby:

"My son, I pay my respects to the Queen Mother."

Seeing this, Master Xuanji also bowed, but his attitude was much lazier and it was just a symbolic gesture.

"No gift."

Although the Queen Mother was wearing a house dress, she was very dignified. She turned around slowly and sighed quietly:

"At the beginning of the founding of the Wei Dynasty, the world was in ruins and was waiting for prosperity. Taizu advocated that the clan kings should be frugal and love the people. Just a few years ago, look at Prince Wu's palace. It is even more extravagant than Fushou Palace. There are many things that I have never heard of... …”

Dongfang Liren knew that the Queen Mother was so serious because of her night terrors. She smiled and said:

"What the Queen Mother has taught me is that I will definitely take it as a warning in the future. Has the Queen Mother found something she likes? If so, I will say hello to the courtiers later and take the ship back to the capital."

The Queen Mother led several people through the warehouse, looking around with a scrutinizing look:

"I have lived in the palace for a long time, and I don't have much experience without leaving home. I want to choose some elegant decorations for the palace, but I don't know what is suitable. Lord Ye, you are both civilized and military, can you help me find some?"

"Um?"

Ye Jingtang was watching from behind, and was suddenly called upon by the Queen Mother. Naturally, he subconsciously looked around, and finally raised his eyes and saw a screen not far from the Queen Mother.

On the screen...

? ?

When Ye Jingtang took a closer look, his eyes couldn't help but get a little bigger. He felt that there was something wrong with this place and wanted to take the women elsewhere.

But before he opened his mouth, the Queen Mother followed his gaze and looked surprised:

"Master Ye, does this screen have a meaning?"

Dongfang Liren and Xuanji didn't pay attention to the details of the dazzling furniture around them, but they looked over when they saw the two communicating.

Seeing the erotic pictures on the screen, Xuanji raised her eyebrows, obviously intrigued by this inappropriate thing.

Dongfang Liren's expression froze, then his eyebrows stood up, and he turned to look at the erotic guard beside him:

"Night Terror Hall! 伱..."

Ye Jingtang was very innocent. After all, such a big screen was erected in front of him. He raised his eyes and saw it. He took a second look to confirm that it was normal, and he did not say that he would recommend it to the Queen Mother.

Seeing a bunch of girls looking over, Ye Jingtang's scalp went numb. He quickly stepped forward to block the Queen Mother's view, raised his hand and said:

"This thing is indecent, please move away..."

The Queen Mother looked puzzled, stood on tiptoes, and looked over Ye Jingtang's shoulder:

"Isn't it just a screen with pictures of ladies? Why is it indecent? Lord Ye, can you explain it to me?"

"Well……"

Night Jingtang didn't dare to push the curious baby to look like the Queen Mother, so he could only ask Da Benben for help.

Dongfang Liren was quite annoyed, but after seeing Ye Jingtang's embarrassed look, he finally softened his heart and stepped forward, holding the Queen Mother's arm and walking away to help out:

"The unclean things painted on the screen are unspeakable. I will go back and explain to my mother..."

"Oh, really? When I saw Ye Jingtang staring at him, I thought there was something big going on..."

"He is also a normal man. It is normal to take a second look at something like this..."

…

Ye Jingtang felt grateful to Da Benben, feeling that his cold and extraordinary persona had completely collapsed. When he was embarrassed, he suddenly found Hong Yu next to him snickering. When he saw him looking over, he quickly said, "It has nothing to do with me." The way he looked cleared away any suspicion.

?

Ye Jingtang was not stupid. When he saw this, he understood that the Queen Mother was deliberately teasing him. He felt helpless and couldn't say that the Queen Mother was cheating on him. He could only keep his eyes open and continue to follow silently.

Several people visited the warehouse for a long time. The Queen Mother and Dongfang Liren both picked out a lot of things that pleased their eyes. Master Xuanji was more pragmatic and wanted to take away all the fine wines collected by King Wu.

As a personal bodyguard, Ye Jingtang was naturally not arrogant enough to take things that should be confiscated, and silently followed a few girls while shopping.

Although he only walked for a short period of time, he had to hold all the small objects that he liked. It was not easy to penetrate a few girls while walking, and I have to say that he was indeed a little tired...

——

Eight hundred miles away, Junshan Terrace.

Under the light rain, the seventy-two islands of Junshan are like falling clouds and mist. Hundreds of large and small cruise ships are passing between the islands. In just a few days, nearly ten thousand people from all walks of life have gathered here, waiting for a game. The top battle that will be famous all over the world begins.

Zezhou is located in the heart of the Central Plains, and Junshan Terrace is located at the mouth of the Yunmengze River. Its unique geographical location has tied it to the word "jianghu" since its emergence.

Junshan Terrace was not a name decided by the Xuanyuan family, but a treasured place in the world since ancient times.

There are no less than a hundred sects of various sizes scattered around Yunmengze, and they usually lead each other for decades. Whenever they can no longer hold the position, the overlord of Zezhou will be replaced. Junshantai has always been here, whoever has the ability will win. Occupy this feng shui treasure land.

The hometown of Xuanyuan Chao, the contemporary 'King of Swordsmen', was himself one of the top wealthy families in Zezhou of the previous generation, but his training was relatively complex and he was not specialized in swordsmanship.

The Xuanyuan Dynasty had great talent, but he looked down on the martial arts inherited from his family. He only liked to study unorthodox sword skills, which was considered a violation of the ancestral precepts. For this reason, he left in anger when he was more than ten years old, determined not to break Kuangyazi and never look back. It sounds close to Pei Yuanfeng's experience.

However, the Xuanyuan Dynasty was not very lucky. He did not meet any Master Wu Kui. When he was more than ten years old, he took a boat to the Zhou family and asked the old lady Zhou to help him make a sword. Then he joined the rebel army with one sword and followed the army to fight all over the Wei Dynasty. In the two states, he attacked the city first and captured the king in the field. By killing thousands of people in hundreds of bloody battles, he slowly developed an invincible sword technique.

Although the reputation of the Xuanyuan Dynasty was not very good, in history, only a handful of people who were able to make a prince by relying on personal force could only be counted in a thousand years. Their ability cannot be denied because of their character. It is not enough to scold the people of the Xuanyuan Dynasty in the world. There are many, but none of them say that the knife is not good.

The vast night shrouded thousands of miles of blue waves, on the thousand-foot platform in the center of the Seventy-Two Islands.

The platform itself is a small island, but over the course of thousands of years it was gradually leveled and paved with green bricks, and it gradually evolved into the largest arena in the world. This is where the name "Junshan Platform" comes from.

At the edge of Junshan Terrace, there is a giant monument without words, with dozens of weapons stuck on it. They are all left behind by the frustrated people from the past to the present. There are swords, guns, swords and halberds, because most of them are magic weapons. , after hundreds of years of wind and frost, there is just a little more rust, and some are even as bright as new.

Under the stone tablet, an old man sat.

The old man had long hair and was naked from the waist up. He only wore a black scale armor skirt and a Qilin beast around his waist. He was half wearing a set of Qilin armor from the Great Wei Dynasty.

The old man was over two meters tall, with broad shoulders and a broad back. His arms had an astonishing span, like those of a dragon, python, tiger, and bear.

Against the background of his majestic body, the 1.5-meter broad-backed sword beside him looked like an ordinary warrior's sword, with very harmonious proportions.

The young man standing in front of him was originally of medium height, but now he looked like he came from Lilliput. Standing next to the old man sitting cross-legged, he was only a head taller.

Judging from the back, the old man is like the sun in the sky. From a far distance, you can feel the overwhelming pressure of killing thousands of people with his hands, without showing any sign of his age.

But the old man is already over seventy years old after all. Among peak warriors whose life span is usually over a hundred years old, he can be considered to be at the end of his peak period. There are obviously many wrinkles on his face, and his long hair is also graying. Only His eyes are still as sharp as when he was young, exuding the sharpness of an eagle.

The young man beside the old man is Xuanyuan Hongzhi's eldest son, Xuanyuan Zhe. At this time, his eyes full of sorrow and anger are telling the news that just came from Zezhou:

"...Uncle Yao, Dad, Fan Laoba and others went there together, but they accidentally missed it. There was a disciple from Junshantai in the Zezhou soldiers who secretly sent a letter saying that only Uncle Yao was forced to go to Jianyang, and only the remaining In one breath, all that's left are corpses, I'm afraid..."

Xuanyuan Chao sat cross-legged on the stage, looking at the endless blue waves that he had watched since childhood, without saying a word.

Xuanyuan Chao spent his whole life in the arena and had only two sons. In order to take care of the eldest son, he kept his hand in the ring even though he knew they were enemies, but the eldest son still turned against him and never looked back.

Because Zheng Feng was spared back then, and now the second son died at the hands of the other party's descendants, the only two sons were gone, and even the successor trained by Ning Chanwuque was gone.

For a person of Xuanyuan Chao's age, even if he sees everything in the world, how can he not feel a little disturbed in his heart.

"Grandpa, what should we do? Is it possible that the people who gave Prince Jing a night's sleep can kill members of my Xuanyuan family at will? Grandpa founded the Wei Dynasty and took the lead in fighting more than a hundred battles. Grandpa was the first in Yun'an City. After conquering the city, he retreated after success. He didn't even take the official position given by Taizu to the general of the Zhennan Army. In recent years, the taxes alone, all the Jianghu forces in Zezhou combined, are not as much as my family has paid... "

"It's a matter of jianghu. It depends on the government. Ye Jingtang can't avenge him. If he wants to avenge Zheng Feng, he can only come to Junshantai with a knife."

"What if he doesn't come? What if he becomes a very popular minister one day..."

"When Qiu Tian joins forces, he will definitely come."

Xuanyuan Chao said calmly: "That's how it is in the world. Enemies must be avenged and kindness must be repaid. As soon as this incident comes out, Qiu Tianhe will definitely die when he steps on Junshan Terrace. If he doesn't come, how can he be worthy of the Chilong Sword in his hand."

When Xuanyuan Zhe heard this, the sadness and anger in his heart subsided a bit, and he thought for a while:

"Grandpa, you are already old. When you meet these two people..."

"I have been here for seventy years and have gone through all the storms I have to go through. Whenever I die, I feel happy and sad. What I am afraid of is not that I will die by a sword one day, but that one day I will have a knife in my hand and be afraid to move forward."

Xuanyuan looked at the saber beside him:

"The Xuanyuan Dynasty that can kill me is the replacement of the old and the new in the world. It has completed a reincarnation and has a good death.

"You can't kill me, Xuanyuan Dynasty, but I will be undefeated until death, and I will be famous for thousands of years, and I will also die a good death.

"At my age, I actually prefer the first option. Being invincible until death without meeting an opponent is not a blessing for a martial artist.

"I became invincible at the age of thirty. I have been practicing swordsmanship for forty years, but there is no opponent who can use it with ease. Who can I show this swordsmanship to?

"I'm already standing on the top of the mountain, and I can't see the sword skills and the higher sky. What's the difference between dying at thirty and dying at a hundred?"

Xuanyuan Zhe was not in Wu Kui's state of mind, so he naturally did not understand these words and asked again:

"If something happens to grandpa, what will the Xuanyuan family do?"

"Prosperity and wealth must be defended by the sword in your hand, not by your father or grandfather. If you have the ability, no one can take it away; if you don't have the ability, you should live the life you deserve."

"..."

——

Prince Wu's Mansion.

It was already dark, and the lights behind the palace were brightly lit.

Ye Jingtang carried a lot of messy calligraphy, paintings, literature, toys, and jewelry to the courtyard where the Queen Mother and Benben stayed, and then came to the buildings on the side of the palace.

The Queen Mother had been holding back for many days. When Master Xuanji and Dongfang Liren came back, they must have wanted to visit incognito and go shopping.

As a personal expert, it was impossible for Ye Jingtang to get off work early, so he had to go out with him.

Dongfang Liren was very considerate of Ye Jingtang. Seeing that he was bored following him alone with his bag, he specially asked him to come over and call his girlfriend to go out to play together.

Ye Jingtang came to the building complex and found the courtyard assigned to him. When he entered the door, he saw an aggrieved bird standing under the eaves, looking at the dried meat.

Luo Ning put her hands on her hips and said like a strict mother lecturing her daughter:

"I'm being asked to serve as a sentry. How can you play with someone and forget about business? I was caught red-handed. Now you're still asking me for dinner?"

"Chiji..."

Niaoniao nodded like garlic, indicating that Niaoniao knew he was wrong. When he saw Ye Jingtang coming in, he quickly pointed with his wings.

When Luo Ning saw that Ye Jingtang was back, she gave the dried meat to Niao Niao and came to him:

"Are you done with things in Wuzhou? Why don't we go back to the capital first and stay here..."

Ye Jingtang knew that Ning'er was a rebel leader and it was awkward to live in the palace, but there was nothing he could do about it. He put his arm around Ning'er's shoulders and comforted her:

"I am the deputy commander of the Hei Yamen. It is against the rules to leave alone early, so we have to go together. By the way, the Queen Mother and the others are going shopping, let me call you up."

"What are you calling us for?"

"Private visit incognito. I'm afraid I'll be bored by being a guard by myself."

Luo Ning was already very embarrassed when her 'adultery' was discovered by Xuanji, let alone hanging out with the Queen Mother. If the Queen Mother asked questions, how would she answer?

"Forget it, I won't go. Just take Sanniang with you. In front of the Queen Mother, do you have the nerve to take the two girls and hug each other?"

Ye Jingtang actually felt that it was a bit arrogant to follow him shopping one by one. Seeing this, he did not insist and lowered his head towards Luo Ning's cheek.

Luo Ning was interrupted in the middle of her work last night. In fact, she was still a little too good. When she saw Ye Jingtang kissing her goodbye, she didn't resist. She raised her hand to hook her neck and gave her a deep kiss.

As a result, just after the kiss, I heard the little thief say:

"Wait in the room, I'll be back later, don't worry."

?

Luo Ning's face was slightly cold, she moved away the hand that was squeezing the little watermelon, turned around and left:

"Who's anxious? I didn't sleep well last night. I won't wait for you. Don't disturb me at night."

With that said, he carried Niaoniao, who was secretly planning to follow Night Terror Hall out for a walk, into the house.

"grumble?"

Ye Jingtang knew that Ning'er would definitely be waiting, so he turned around and went to the side room without saying anything.

The lights were on in the wing, and Pei Xiangjun was resting alone on the bed as the injury on his back was not completely healed.

When he heard that he was going to take her out shopping, Pei Xiangjun had already stood up and stood in front of the dressing table changing clothes.

As soon as Ye Jingtang opened the door, he saw that Sanniang was only wearing a goose-yellow bellyband, holding the skirt and gesturing in front of her chest. The side of the bellyband showed a white semicircle, and she looked heavy with a heavy load.

Ye Jingtang came behind and thoughtfully helped Sanniang support the load:

"This dress is very pretty..."

Pa~

Before he finished speaking, his hand was tapped.

Ye Jingtang was startled and turned his head to look at Sanniang's side face, wondering if he had accidentally made Sanniang angry.

Pei Xiangjun's face turned red, he squeezed the somewhat presumptuous Night Terror with his shoulder, and hummed softly:

"Ning'er is here. Indulging you in your arrogance is teaching her how to be a daughter-in-law. Please behave yourself in private."

Ye Jingtang understands the meaning of these words - I took the initiative in front of Ning'er, but privately I am still your aunt and head, so I have to pay attention to etiquette.

Ye Jingtang saw that Sanniang was thin-skinned and naturally restrained in her behavior, so she helped unfold her dress and put it on her body to tidy it up:

"Is your injury getting better?"

Pei Xiangjun tied his belt and blinked:

"What? You want to drag me with you tonight?"

"What can I say? I'm just worrying about your health."

"Hmph~ You're well now, so you don't have to make such crooked ideas. I just read Ning'er's Xianshu, and there seems to be some moves that don't overlap, like Shuang Jiao Xian... Xian what..."

Ye Jingtang didn't mean this at first, but when he heard this, he blinked his eyes. After helping Sanniang put on her clothes, she held hands and walked out the door:

"Let's talk about it when we get back."

When Pei Xiangjun saw Ye Jingtang pretending to be stern, he snorted again, then he opened his umbrella and walked out of the palace...
