Zhu Huichan gushed endlessly, and actually said more than ten names in one breath, including the head of the "Central Plains Seven Major Sects", and there are also famous figures in the rivers and lakes.

I heard Zhu Huichan say again: "There is also a very great swordsman, named Yu Qianli, when he was only twenty years old, he took the sword against Chu Changting, the chief scoop of the underworld in the Yu Realm. That Chu Changting ranked fifteenth on the 'Black Wind Record', he was a very vicious robber, Yu Daxia killed him to eliminate harm for the people, and others called him the 'Sword God', which is also very admirable. ”

It turned out that the name of the senior brother was also known to the princess Chitose, and Li Hu was even more surprised, and said: "You can tell the names and deeds of so many swordsmen, but I have to admire them!"

Zhu Huichan said: "What is this, I still know a lot! Usually I have nothing to do all day in the palace, so I will ask Lan Dutong to tell me everything on the rivers and lakes, which is much more interesting than reading and watching plays!"

Li Hu said: "Lan Dutong, does he know the things on the rivers and lakes very well?"

Zhu Huichan said: "Of course, Lan Dutong not only knows a lot of things, but also has a high level of martial arts, so he is still my senior brother?"

"Your senior brother?" Li Huqi said, "Have you ever worshipped Master?"

"I haven't worshiped Master," Zhu Huichan said, "But I have a brother Duyun, who is the senior brother of Lan Dutong, so he is also my senior brother." They all practiced a martial art called 'Vientiane Silk Sword', which is very powerful, but unfortunately I can't learn it. ”

Hearing the names of "Brother Duyun" and "Vientiane Silk Sword", Li Hu's heart moved, and he immediately knew that she was talking about Cao Duyun, and the young man with strong swordsmanship who met when he hijacked the car in the city at noon must have been the Lan Dutong in Zhu Huichan's mouth, and it turned out that he was Cao Duyun's junior brother.

Zhu Huichan saw that Li Hu was silent, and said, "After saying so much, do you agree to pass on my martial arts?"

It's hard to imagine that this Princess Kunyi is actually a fan of the rivers and lakes, so interested in the things on the rivers and lakes, and she is also very keen on practicing martial arts.

Li Hu smiled: "Okay, since you promised to reward me with a lot of gold and silver treasures, and guaranteed me to be the inner guard, I will teach you martial arts." ”

Zhu Huichan was overjoyed, but then said: "But we have to make it clear first, if the real kung fu you taught me can work, and I can beat the bad guys, I won't learn those fake ones!"

Li Hu said: "Of course, I won't teach you those fancy tricks that don't work." But you just said that there are two conditions, and what is the other one?"

Zhu Huichan said: "The second condition is that you have to take me out of the palace to play often." ”

Li Huqi said: "Why do you need me to take you out of the palace to play, does someone lock you up in the palace?"

Zhu Huichan said: "You don't know, it's not easy for me to go out of the palace, I used to go out of the city with my father to hunt, and I can still have a few opportunities a year, but in the past few years, my father has been busy with political affairs and rarely goes out hunting, so I have to be stuffy in the palace." I asked the Ouchi guards to take me out to play, but none of them would agree. ”

As a princess, Zhu Huichan does not have much freedom in her behavior, and even if the inner guards in the palace have great courage, they dare not take her out of the palace without authorization, and abducting the princess is a big crime to destroy the nine clans. In fact, this Duanyang Festival went to Tianqiao Street to watch the lion dance, and Zhu Huichan still hid in her younger brother Zhu Cihong's residence and secretly mixed up.

According to the information of "Heavenly Punishment", the troika that was the target of the assassination had only one person in each carriage, but there were two people in the car they were riding, and this is precisely the reason.

Li Hu said: "It seems that it is not good to be a princess, you can't get out of the palace locked up, and it's similar to being in prison." ”

Zhu Huichan said: "Who says it's not! So you have to promise, when you become a guard in the palace in the future, you will definitely take me out to play from time to time." ”

Li Hu frowned and said: "If I enter the palace as a guard, I have to abide by the rules of the palace, and it will be a big crime to take you out of the palace without permission." ”

Zhu Huichan said: "You even dare to hijack the palace driver, you are originally a lawless bull demon king, what crimes are you afraid of? I don't care, you must agree anyway!"

Zhu Huichan was born very beautiful, at this time, her mouth was flattened, and she reached out and pulled Li Hu's sleeve with coquettishness, which was not much different from the coquettish pleading of ordinary little girls, and it was so bright and moving, which made people completely forget her identity as a princess.

It was Li Hu, who had seen countless beauties, and his mind couldn't help but be in a trance at this moment.

After a while, he came to his senses and said, "You like to go out to play so much, why are you in a hurry to go back? In my opinion, you might as well not be a princess, and I will take you with me to go to the rivers and lakes in the future!"

Hearing this, Zhu Huichan was stunned, and said after a while: "But in this case, my father and queen mother will definitely be worried, and they will send many people to arrest us." ”

Li Hu grinned and said: "It doesn't matter, we went to the Hu Barbarian village where there is no royal law, and the officers and soldiers sent by your father can't help us, you can go back after ten days and a half of play, and they won't be too worried." ”

Zhu Huichan's heart has actually been yearning for freedom and freedom in her heart, but this is just a dream, she grew up in the deep palace, and she never had the luxury of living this kind of life one day before.

What Li Hu said really made Zhu Huichan a little moved, she pondered for a long time before she said, "But, what about my brother?"

Li Hu said: "Of course they follow us." I hijacked the car this time, in fact, I have another purpose, so I can't send you back to the capital for the time being. ”

Zhu Huichan said: "What is the purpose, you tell me!"

Li Hu said: "My purpose is to eliminate an organization called 'Heavenly Punishment'. ”

"Is it the number one killer group in the rivers and lakes?"

This princess Chitose knows a lot about things on the rivers and lakes, and it is not surprising that she will know "Heavenly Punishment". Li Hu no longer concealed it, and said roughly about the fact that he was ordered to infiltrate the "Heavenly Punishment", in order to find out its leader, the monarch father, in order to crack the entire killer organization.

Li Hu's true identity and the purpose of infiltrating the "Heavenly Punishment" were originally important secrets, and he had always kept his mouth shut, even when he was tortured by "scaling" to extract a confession that day, he did not say a word. However, Li Hu is not a person who does not know how to be flexible, after getting along with Zhu Huichan for half a day, he has learned that this little princess has a simple personality, and is full of yearning for Xingxia Jianghu, instead of coercing and persecuting, it is better to simply tell her the truth and win her cooperation.

Zhu Huichan listened to it with relish, especially when she knew that the Bull Demon King was the junior brother of the "Sword God" Yu Qianli, her eyes opened wider, and her eyes became brighter.

Li Hu originally only planned to briefly recount the story, but Zhu Huichan kept asking, killing Envoy Cui in the Xu Ji pork mill, the battle on the official ship of the Yujiang River, she asked all the details clearly, Li Hu told her again, she was still unsatisfied, as if she didn't enjoy listening enough.

Fighting the sword to eliminate violence and peace, and cracking the evil killer group, these are the things that this little princess desires the most.

Sure enough, as Li Hu expected, after listening to everything, Zhu Huichan clenched her fists and said: "This princess has already decided, she will not return to the capital for the time being, and she will go to Humanzhai with you tomorrow!"

Li Hu said: "This trip may be dangerous, aren't you afraid?"

Zhu Huichan said: "Aren't you the Bull Demon King, with you staying by the side of this princess, those killers and beasts will definitely not be able to hurt me, right?"

Li Hu said: "You help me crack the 'Heavenly Punishment', and I will try my best to protect your safety." ”

Zhu Huichan said: "Then I'm not afraid!"

Li Hu said: "What about your brother?"

Zhu Huichan said without hesitation: "Of course it's with us." Ahong, don't you say?"

Although Zhu Cihong is the crown prince, he is young after all, and he is very dependent on Zhu Huichan, and when he heard his sister ask like this, although he hesitated, he finally nodded.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ Humanzhai is located in the northeast of the capital, two hundred and sixty miles away, which is not too far, but it has reached the border. If you go further north and go out of the Great Wall, you will be within the territory of the Manchu Qing Dynasty outside the Guan.

Since Emperor Yongle moved the capital to Beijing, it meant to take Beijing to defend the border, and Humanzhai was located between the capital and the border.

Humanzhai is called Zhai, but it is actually a city, built on the bank of the Luan River. The river flows around the city from the southeast, while the west side of the city leans against a towering mountain called Yu'er Cliff.

Adjacent to the mountain and water, the terrain of Hu Manzhai can be described as dangerous, the only way to enter the city is along the side of the Luan River, a zhang Xu to wide, as long as ten miles, with the mountain stone paved horse road, is called "stone throat road".

Hu Manzhai is a place where there is no royal law, and the key criminals who have been rewarded by the government can show up here without worrying about being arrested. In fact, there were already many rogues and outlaws from all over the country in the Hu Man Village, who had no place to stand elsewhere, but they could live a good life here.

Most of the outlaws have some money on them, but the wealth of Hu Manzhai does not only come from these people, but from trade. This city is the largest trade market in the northern part of the Ming Dynasty, where you can trade almost anything, from all kinds of ordinary goods to rare items that can only be bought and sold on the underground black market.

Grain, cloth, handicrafts and utensils transported from various borders, furs, medicinal herbs, and weapons produced in the north were all sold and exchanged in the Human village, and there was also an important commodity, that is, slaves.
