Chen Zhongheng never thought that he would have a chance to stay away from Bianliang, so when he was sent by Zhao Shu to serve as Shen An's deputy in the mission, he was dumbfounded with excitement.

As an internal servant, he has lost the symbol of a man, but he still yearns for those golden iron horses and the flying snow outside the plug.

"Look at this sun, Lao Chen, there is no snow this season, don't think about it."

The mission walked slowly under the bright sun in the northwest, Chen Zhongheng covered his eyebrows with his hands, squinted at the blue sky, and said in a tangled voice: "This is no different from Bianliang!" ”

"One more time."

The mission traveled another day, and the next day, after turning a mountain, the front suddenly opened up.

"Old Chen, how's it going?"

Shen An asked, pointing ahead.

The front is full of grasslands, as far as the eye can see, and everywhere you can see is green.

"What a place!"

Chen Zhongheng knew that his trip was to supervise the negotiations and to see what the northwest was like for the officials.

He was paying attention to the terrain and people's livelihood all the way, and he didn't have time to enjoy the scenery.

At this moment he put those tasks aside and asked, "Can you get lost here?" ”

Shen An shook his head, "There is so-and-so, I guarantee that you can't get lost." ”

"So...... So and so went. ”

Chen Zhongheng has the heart of a literary and artistic youth, but he is hidden deep in the palace, and after seeing this prairie today, he was in a commotion and out of control.

He rode his horse and rushed out, and some of the guards tried to follow, but he refused.

Literary and artistic young people want to look up to the sky and howl, and they will feel ashamed when they are heard.

Shen An stopped the guards with a smile, and everyone watched Chen Zhongheng disappear in front.

"Let's go!"

There are still two days away from Qingjian City, and Shen An is not in a hurry at all.

Chewing the jerky he bought yesterday in his mouth and putting on his felt hat, Shen An looked at the scenery leisurely like a donkey friend.

"The sky is blue, the wilderness is vast, the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep."

There are people grazing not far away, but the scale is not large, only a few dozen sheep.

"Lang Jun, when the Western Xia people were proud in the past, they had to be careful here."

The days without enemies made Huang Chun feel very difficult, and he couldn't reflect his own value.

"Now they can't get complacent." Shen An couldn't help but laugh when he thought of Li Liangzuo's current life.

Western Xia was originally a fragmented state, and various forces were forcibly pinched together by the Li family, which seemed to be powerful, but the internal struggle made them unable to form a joint force, and no matter how much they developed, they could not become behemoths like the Liao and Song dynasties.

They have been fighting since history, fighting with Liao and Song like a peaceful brother, and they are also fighting internally.

Li Liangzuo is actually similar to Zhao Zhen, both succeeded to the throne at a young age, and Zhao Zhen is worse than him, there is a strong woman on top of his head, a woman who almost became an emperor.

But the Great Song Dynasty has a strong inertia, and the Zaifu and important ministers all abide by this inertia, and even Liu E does not dare to touch this inertia easily, so Zhao Zhen was able to smoothly grasp power.

Li Liangzuo is different, the big and small forces within Western Xia are not convinced that he is a half-old child as the emperor, and there are not a few people who make trouble.

Originally, when Pang was still there, he was able to suppress those opposing voices, and after he was killed by Li Liangzuo, Xixia was lively.

And the Liao people are obviously also eyeing Western Xia, and once they find an opportunity, they will not hesitate to do it.

As long as the Western Xia can be destroyed, the Liao people will show their fangs to the Great Song Dynasty and will no longer be afraid of anything.

The three countries are three points, and when all three points exist, the situation is balanced.

An hour passed, and Chen Zhongheng did not come.

The accompanying guards were a little anxious, so they came to ask for instructions, "Guixinhou, the villain wants to find Chen Duzhi." ”

Shen An shook his head, "Don't care." ”

He is the envoy, and before Zhao Shu relieves him from his position, he is in charge of this trip.

So the guards secretly slandered in their hearts, but they didn't dare to question it.

It wasn't until the afternoon that the embarrassed Chen Zhongheng returned to the brigade.

"I just want to see more of the scenery."

He forcibly defended himself calmly, just eating dry cakes and drinking water in an embarrassed manner, but let Shen An know that he was lost.

"Why don't you go looking for so-and-so?"

Chen Zhongheng was obviously apprehensive, and even blamed Shen An for not caring about himself.

"It is rumored that there is a terrible ghost here, once he finds someone alone, he will pretend to be a beautiful woman to tempt, as long as that person is hooked, she will suck the essence of the whole body...... In the end, it turned into an empty skin. ”

Two horsemen came from afar, but they were village soldiers. They quietly went around from the side and returned to the team behind.

Chen Zhongheng shivered on the horse's back and said in surprise: "No." ”

"What do you say?"

Shen An stopped talking, but Chen Zhongheng was a little panicked, so he went to ask someone.

No one knew this legend, but Chen Zhongheng became more and more afraid.

"Lang Jun, why are you scaring him?" Huang Chun felt that Shen An was playing a prank, but he didn't look like him.

Shen An said in a low voice: "This is the first time Chen Zhongheng has gone out to participate in major affairs, and he is a little too excited, he is asking about relevant matters along the way, and even pointing fingers...... This is human nature, but so-and-so can't sit back and watch him slide into the abyss, so he scares and scares him. ”

There are all kinds of rights, once Chen Zhongheng tastes the sweetness, who knows if he will become a greedy guy in the future, and he will want to interfere in government affairs at every turn.

As an old friend, Shen An felt the need to give him a wake-up call.

Huang Chun was puzzled and said, "Then how do you know that he met with a woman?" ”

"He's got a scent on him, and this road ...... Qingjian City needs a female singer, and he estimates that he has given a lot of money to ask for directions. ”

Shen An thought that when Chen Zhongheng got lost on the grassland and couldn't even find the direction, a small convoy suddenly appeared and asked him to give money to show the way.

Shen An gloated and said: "Lao Tzu called you Wenqing, it's cool." ”

Chen Zhongheng came back and asked calmly: "Anbei, is this matter true?" ”

Shen An nodded, and Chen Zhongheng's cheeks couldn't help but tremble.

At this time, the legend of ghosts and gods was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the people in the palace believed in it.

"That demon will possess a woman...... Once you succeed, you'll be far away. ”

Shen An felt that he was actually not an official, not a businessman, and could support his sister, wife and children with his storytelling ability. For example, if you go to Daxiangguo Temple to tell a story, you are guaranteed to make a lot of money.

Ay!

Brother is so talented, what should I do!

Chen Zhongheng was depressed, and Shen An waited until the afternoon camp before pretending to be concerned and said, "That terrible ghost...... Maybe I didn't come. ”

"You don't have to lie to so-and-so!"

Chen Zhongheng has been made a little haggard.

"I kid you not."

At night, everyone except those on duty was asleep.

"Don't eat so-and-so!"

"Help!"

In the exclamation, Shen An was the first to rush out. He was disheveled, carrying a long black knife in his hand, looking left and right, "Who?" ”

The shouts came from next door to him,

“…… Lao Chen? ”

Shen An felt that he had really done evil.

The next morning, Chen Zhongheng hurried with two dark circles under his eyes and yawned.

"Lao Chen, what is your dream? It's the ideal. Shen An saw him staggering on horseback, worried that he would fall, so he asked a question.

"Dreams?" Chen Zhongheng thought for a while, "A certain dream is to be able to travel all over the world and see the beautiful scenery of the world......"

Huang Chun's face was unbearable......

Lang Jun, Chen Zhongheng didn't want to get involved in political affairs at all, he was just curious. But you scared him like this, it's not kind!

Shen An also felt that he had gone too far.

“…… Last night, the west wind withered the green trees, and I went up to the tall building alone, looking at the end of the world......"

The song drifted in, and then a caravan appeared from the side.

"That's her!"

Chen Zhongheng pointed to the caravan and shouted, and then his eyes darkened, "She is a good person." ”

Your sister! Turned out to be a businessman?

Shen An began to guess that it was a female prostitute, who would have thought that it would be a caravan.

The northwest needs supplies, and the DPRK and China spend a lot of money in Qingjian City every year, and businessmen naturally flock to it.

The leader of the caravan was a woman with some dark skin, but bright eyes and a resolute look.

"Yan Yue has seen nobles."

The woman dismounted and saluted, then glanced at Chen Zhongheng.

Shen An bowed his head and said, "It's very polite." ”

The woman saluted Chen Zhongheng, "Yesterday, the noble man left without authorization, and the slave was worried that you would get lost, so he sent a lot of people to look for it, but unfortunately he didn't find ......."

Lao Chen, Lao Chen, it turns out that you ran away without permission?

Shen An didn't know what Chen Zhongheng was running, and when he saw his twisting appearance, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

Chen Zhongheng pinched the corners of his clothes, lowered his head and said, "I see that you are reluctant to eat dry cakes, so I can't bear to eat ......."

Do you even know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade?

Shen Anxin was happy, and he was ready to watch the excitement.

Yan Yue said with a smile: "There is a lot of dry food, but I don't dare to waste it in such a place, so try to save it." Now that you've returned, say goodbye. ”

Chen Zhongheng raised his head and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

Yan Yue said: "I'll wait to go to Qingjian City." ”

Chen Zhongheng didn't know what he thought, so he blurted out: "So are we, let's go together." ”

Madan!

Where in the mission can outsiders be involved?

Shen An felt that this guy was dizzy.

Yan Yue glanced at Shen An and said, "Thank you, noble, it's just that the slave is not good to bother, so I will leave." ”

She rode her horse back, and the man behind her was tall and burly, looking at her with reverence in his eyes.

This is a powerful woman.

"Anbei ......"

Chen Zhongheng's eyes showed a pleading look, "She likes to sing, you can write a song, ah!" ”

This man actually fell in love with a woman?

Shen An couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and then thought of the chamberlains and palace maids who spent their days together in the palace, as well as those high-level chamberlains who had residences outside the palace and married like normal people, and they were relieved.

Although they have lost their dick, the man's mind is still there!

Chen Zhongheng was probably afraid of what Shen An said, so he didn't dare to get too close to that woman. But asking for words with Shen An is obviously tempting.

Ay! O iniquity!

Shen An felt that he was really a sin.

The people around him were looking at him, mostly expectantly.

Shen An's poems are few, but they are basically classics.

He groaned for a while, and there was a little more melancholy in his eyes, and he recited: "The clouds are tricky, the flying stars spread hatred, and the silver man is ...... dark."

Chen Zhongheng perked up and stretched out his hand to ask for pen and ink in a panic.

Shen An's gaze passed through the caravan and looked to the northwest, thinking about what kind of person that young lady was.

Empress Dowager Liang! There are many legends left in the history books, and he is the shaper of the image of Pingtou in Western Xia......

Shen An really wanted to meet this young lady.

But he couldn't, so he was melancholy.

"As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win, and there are countless people in the world."

“……”

Chen Zhongheng beat his horse and left, shouting all the way: "Yan Yue." ”

Yan Yue turned around, and Chen Zhongheng said excitedly: "There is a song here, for you." ”

As the saying goes, an old house burns fast when it catches fire, and Chen Zhongheng is like this.

"What word?"
