In late December of the 19th year of Yongzhi, Shi Yuhua arrived at Broken Leaf from the Battle of the Broken Leaf, and Jia Huan had already arrived in the Broken Leaf River, and the Battle of the Poplar River was breaking out in Beiting.

At this time, in Tocharo, from the Shule region, Bahule, who had visited his parents and clansmen in the Green Mountains, took twenty of his men, and the princess of Wanguo, Namin, and her fifty guards set out from the capital of the Yue Clan, Ashu, to Kuzhanti.

The reason why Bahule wanted to assassinate Jia Huan is unknown. His father, Su Tan, killed himself in the battle with the Zhou army. Subsequently, the family wealth was seized. The clan was reduced to slavery and mined in the silver mines of the Green Ridge.

For Namin, the princess of Wanguo, she entered the territory of the Zhou Dynasty from Monan, and traveled from Guazhou and Dunhuang along the way, she saw the strong strength and rich population resources of the Zhou Dynasty. Especially in the Shule area, there is a thriving situation.

I heard Jia Huan's series of proud achievements and tough attitude towards Hu. She was happy to use the hand of Bahule to get rid of this enemy for Mobei.

A group of more than 80 people, in the name of caravan transporting grain, arrived at Kuzhanti on the 15th day of the first month. Jia Huan organized large-scale grain transportation, most of which was transported through the caravans of merchants and nobles from all over the world. Similar to the open method.

When they arrived, Jia Huan was not fighting, but was in the middle of the Broken Leaf River. Here they met Jory Hamadnadi, who had stayed here and drunk his sorrows.

Bahule and Prince Jori are the children of the three major surnames of the Yue clan and know each other. And at the same time pursued Shi Yuhua. It's just that Bahule withdrew, and Prince Jory was in love, escorting Shi Yuhua all the way to the river.

On the 19th, the atmosphere of the Lantern Festival had just dissipated in the city. A light snow covered the houses in the city. Wrapped in silver. On the streets, pedestrians are sparse.

In the five-hall courtyard purchased by Princess Na Min of Wanguo, it is interesting because of the light snow. It was almost noon, in the main hall of the quiet courtyard in the east, the aroma of hot pot base mixed with dishes diffused and wafted in the air.

Bahule is dressed in a bearded suit, wearing a red turban, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a slender and fit posture, and an extremely sunny temperament. The long sword he usually carried on his back had long since been untied. It's too eye-catching to walk down the street.

Zhang Sishui, the general of the Zhou army, sat in Juzhanti. No one dares to make trouble. There was good order in the city.

After a few rounds of drinking, Bahule raised his wine glass, touched a glass with Qiao Li, and said excitedly: "Qiao Li, you listen to the words of Jia Huan's subordinates?" Of course, Jia Huan doesn't want you to appear by the side of the Shi family, but have you thought about what the Shi family's attitude will be? ”

Jory Hamadnadi has fair skin, and at this time he still changed into a gorgeous Hanfu gown, with a slender posture and a gentle bearing. Every move is full of aristocratic demeanor. It's just that the expression is depressed.

Jory Hamadnadi groaned slightly, "This..." Some people say that Jia makes Jun Weiyi, as Tang Anxi makes the envoy.

Even if it's just Yi Junjie talking about him, how dare he touch Jia Huan's hair? He really hadn't thought about this question. He had guarded the Shi family for more than a year, and with the Shi family's character, he would definitely not refuse him if he asked to see him.

Bahule smiled, smiled very brightly, and said: "Qiaoli, as far as I know, Jia Huan has several beautiful wives and concubines in the Central Plains. Shi everyone follows him, what is it? With your infatuation, there may not be no chance. Come with us to Leaf Crushing. ”

The emotions that have been suppressed by him for a long time in Jory Hamadnadi's heart are restored: how much he loves Yuhua! He was moved by the words of Bahule.

At the table of the Eight Immortals, Namin, the princess of Wanguo, dressed as a man, was dressed in a white shirt, her face was as bright as jade, and her eyes were clear as water. Nineteen years old, delicate and incomparable. Quietly drinking wine, eating mutton hot pot, and smiling in his heart.

If you want to describe her demeanor, it is somewhat like the lord of Zhao Min played by Zhang Min, a generation of beauties in the movie version of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer". The picture of her riding on a horse and looking back and smiling is a classic in the hearts of countless people.

Lord Minmin: Very beautiful, three points heroic, three points heroic, graceful and luxurious. Quick-witted, intelligent elf, and strategic.

With the cover of Prince Jory, they can hide better and act more conveniently when they reach Broken Leaves.

…

…

In mid-March, with the financial support of the princess of Wanguo, the caravan led by Prince Jori in the face of the battle was in Juzhanti, trafficking a large amount of grain and carrying other goods, and only traded in Broken Leaf City.

According to the Zhou army's rules, only those who helped the Zhou army carry grain (which could earn a small profit) were eligible to trade in the major cities controlled by the Zhou army.

At this time, Broken Leaf City, just like the same large construction site, is expanding, and according to the planning map, the new urban area is about five times that of the original Broken Leaf City. It can accommodate a population of more than one million. Here, it will be the center of the Western Regions.

On March 18, a few days after arriving in Broken Leaf City, Prince Jori, after inquiring about Shi Yuhua's residence, went to her house in Fengle Fang to ask for a meeting.

In Shi Yuhua's foyer, there are many visitors every day. The nouveau riche of Broken Leaves don't care about the prince of the Moon Clan. Prince Jory did not publicly show off his personal relationship with Shi Yuhua, which was too shallow. However, he waited in the foyer for seven or eight days and received no response. This inevitably made him extremely frustrated.

Yi Junjie escorted Shi Yuhua to Broken Leaf at the end of last year, and had already instructed the housekeeper in the mansion not to let Jory Hamadnadi ask to see Shi Yuhua. The housekeeper will not tell me.

…

…

The grass and trees will return soon, and they will be red and purple in every way.

The broken leaves in late March are undoubtedly very lively and prosperous. On Suzaku Street, people come and go. There are all ethnic groups.

In the newly built East Market and West Market, a large number of business travelers gathered. In the surrounding streets, restaurants, green buildings, casinos, silver horns, etc. have opened. Dense crowds.

And that's just the beginning!

Jia Huan was already in Gongyue City at this time. His executive order arrived in Qiuzi early. The yamen and officials in Qiuzi are preparing to relocate to Broken Leaves. More than 20 yamen, including the Chief Minister, the Judge, the Garrison Division, the Foundry Bureau, the Lifting Division, and the Ordnance Division, all sent people to break the leaves and fight the front station.

The city of Shattered Leaf City is in full swing. A large number of mansions and shops have been sold or rented out before they are fully completed. In addition, the large number of purchases by the Broken Leaf Government has stimulated economic growth, attracted businessmen and people from all over the world, and is gradually forming a virtuous circle!

In the evening, the sun sets. In Yankang Fang, which is adjacent to the West Market, the excitement has not yet dissipated. In the east of the square, in a mansion covering an area of half an acre, the exquisite houses and courtyards are lush with vegetation.

Prince Jory was alone in the house drinking sullen wine. The hope he had raised in the battle was now close to despair.

Why didn't everyone see him?

While he was drinking, an old servant who had been with him for a long time said outside the door, "Your Highness, the guests are here." ”

When Prince Jory looked up, he saw Bahul standing at the door. Looks lonely. Wearing a red turban, his blue hair is quite eye-catching in the sunset. Surprised, he asked, "Bahule, you didn't sell things well in the West Market today?" ”

Bahule didn't answer, walked into the exquisite flower hall, sat down, poured himself wine, and drank a glass.

Prince Jory rarely saw Bahule in this state, and said, "You have a conflict with Princess Min? Although his attention was on the Shi family, he could see that Bahule had a good personal relationship with that princess Min.

Bahule poured another glass of high-grade liquor and said, "I'm in a bad mood, I'm looking for you to have a drink." Jia Huan is about to come back and break the leaves. There are still more than ten days to go. ”

It's not Jory who has something on his mind. He has it too!

As soon as Jia Huan broke the leaves, the assassination was about to be launched. In his heart, he was extremely entangled and contradictory. Love, family affection, how should he choose?
