Section 24 Wu Ming was almost stunned when he heard it now, although Xuanyuan Ling was rough in martial arts, he could barely be regarded as a martial artist. But she is a woman, how can she gain a foothold in this society? How to escape Li Tie's pursuit? Thinking of this, he was even more anxious, and walked around the house several times before asking, "What happened later?" How did you find this place? ”

He was very anxious now, and even his tone was not very good. Xiaobi saw that his face was hideous, and took a step back, and her face was even paler. Dao Yun next to him said: "Later, later Xu is princess was lost, and her little maid was irrelevant, so naturally no one cared." This little girl is also loyal, she ran to the mountain gate alone to ask for help, and the master strictly ordered everyone not to get involved in the internal disputes in the court, and naturally no one cared about what she wanted. So she came to the mountain every day to kneel and please, but since the senior sister went out of the mountain gate, the master was even less interested in kneeling and pleading. The consequences of her doing so can be imagined. In the end, I returned to the mountain gate, I couldn't stand it, and secretly agreed to help, so I gave up. ”

Speaking of this, he let out a long sigh, pulled out the wine gourd and took a sip of wine, looked at Wu Ming and said: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Lord Wu, you owe them the master and servant, it is too much, and the old Taoist can't stand it." He hadn't preached a sermon for a long time, but this sermon horn was shouted in a low tone, dragging a long tail note, obviously the Tao rhyme was also very touched.

Lin Yinghuan said: "Later, I was ordered by Li Tie to send an envoy to the Southern Han Dynasty and met Master Daoyun. I promised him to take Xiaobi to Nanning to find you. ”

Wu Ming's mind was clear. After all, Dao Yun is just alone, Xiaobi is a woman, and it is naturally inconvenient to be with him. And Lin Yinghuan wants to send an envoy to Nanning, with his transcendent status in Cangsong Pavilion, he will stuff a servant girl in the envoy team, and forgive those who are monitoring Lin Yinghuan's forward battalion warriors and dare not say anything. Hearing this, he looked at Xiaobi, only to feel that his whole body was in an ice cellar, and he was shivering all over his body with cold. He pinched Chixiao and slid for a while before he saluted Xiaobi and said, "Thank you, Xiaobi." ”

Xiaobi was frightened by Wu Ming just now, she lost the princess, I thought that Wu Ming would scold a few words, but I didn't expect that Wu Ming gave her a big salute instead, and she was a little at a loss, and after a while, she jumped away and muttered: "My lord, don't say anything about thank Xiaobi, you can think of a way to find the princess." ”

Lin Yinghuan said on the side: "Lord Wu, now the entire north is in Li Tie's hands. Even the prime minister has been placed under house arrest by Li Tie. Fortunately, I have the title of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites and went to Nanning, after all, I look better in terms of face. Otherwise, you can't get out. As for the prime minister, I have to trouble you to tell the mother and ask her to find a way. ”

Wu Mingzheng was upset by Xuanyuan Ling's matter, and when he heard Lin Yinghuan say this, he suddenly stood up straight and said loudly: "Lord Lin, isn't it good for you to tell your mother this in person?" ”

Lin Yinghuan smiled bitterly, and said in a dumb voice: "Now that I'm like this, I ran to find my mother, it's one thing if she can't see me, even if she sees me, whether she can trust me or not is another matter." ”

Wu Ming immediately understood what Lin Yinghuan meant. Now the relationship between the north and the south is delicate, and the former prime minister's faction was arrested by Li Tie and placed under house arrest. Lin Yinghuan represented the north to envoy Nanning, which was already strange. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of Zhu Huai's attitude on Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhu Huai's attitude towards Lin Yinghuan can only be described as indifferent, even if he toasts later, it can only be regarded as perfunctory. Both of them used to be the backbone of the prime minister's faction, and they were never strangers. His appearance definitely made Lin Yinghuan suspicious, no wonder Tao Yu came to the scene later, and ignored him, probably thinking that Lin Yinghuan had already voted for Li Tie's side. Lin Yinghuan is indeed suffering now, but this can't be blamed on Zhu Huai. If he wasn't worried about Xuanyuan Ling, he probably wouldn't have chosen not to believe him, let alone come to the post station at night, not to mention Tao Yu and Zhu Huai.

Speaking of this, he sighed with emotion, and suddenly, he seemed to be much older. Wu Ming looked at him and couldn't help but feel sad. Li Tie's move to send Lin Yinghuan to Nanning can be described as killing two birds with one stone, while showing his intentions to the northern ministers, he also disintegrated the centripetal force of the former prime minister's faction. Lin Yinghuan sent an envoy to Nanning, and even Tao Yu and Zhu Huai would suspect that he had already taken refuge in Li Tie, let alone others? In this way, those who still had illusions about the prime minister and the crown prince in the northern court had to reconsider.

Wu Ming looked at Lin Yinghuan's discouraged appearance, was silent for a while, and then said: "Lord Lin, don't worry, the matter between Xiaoling and the prime minister, even if you don't say it, I will do my best to solve it." ”

Lin Yinghuan nodded, a little lonely and said: "That's the best, Xiaobi handed it over to you, I can be relieved, this time when I return to the north, I will resign from the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and live in peace, which is worthy of the emperor and the prime minister, and live one day at a time." In the future, I will have to trouble you, Lord Wu. ”

Wu Ming looked at him, and felt that this court dispute was turbulent and treacherous, which made him feel suffocated, and he didn't want to talk to Lin Yinghuan about this seclusion, so he changed the topic and said: "Lord Lin, this time to Nanning, how many days are you going to stay?" ”

"According to Li Tie's old boy's meaning, he has to officially write a letter to invite Niangniang, waiting for a reply. Then in Nanning, with great fanfare, entertaining people from all sides, and when all kinds of things are done, how can you wait until after the beginning of spring. ”

Wu Ming was not only silent, it seemed that Lin Yinghuan was also involuntarily, since Li Tie sent him to the south, he would definitely have to take advantage of it to stop, knowing that Tao Yu would not be able to return to Kyoto, but he still had to pretend and make all kinds of etiquette things enough. Thinking of this, he became more and more sympathetic to Lin Yinghuan, he thought for a while and said, "Lord Lin, if you need anything, please tell the boy, I will definitely try my best to help you." ”

This is vaguely a promise.

He is now the acting commander of the guards battalion, and when he says this, he naturally has a bit of weight, Lin Yinghuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately lowered his head, and just said: "Lord Wu is kind, the old man understands it, my whole family is in Kyoto, and it is firmly controlled by Li Tie." Although his heart is towards the prime minister, he has to do things for Li Tie. This suffering is really not enough for outsiders. What's more, even if Lord Wu restores my freedom for me now, it will be difficult for me to gain a foothold in the imperial court. That's it. ”

When he said this, Wu Ming only felt bitter, just staring at the other party, and for a while, he didn't know what to do.

Having said that, there is naturally no need to talk about it further. Xiaobi stayed here with Lin Yinghuan, it was not a good place to go after all. Several people discussed it, and finally decided to let Xiaobi stay with Wu Ming first. Wu Ming thought about it and agreed. He Daoyun returned from the original way, but there were no major twists and turns. It's just that Wu Ming's heart feels even heavier.

After breaking up with Daoyun, it was almost dawn, the morning star was crossed, and the sky was already dewed in the morning. It's just that the twilight before dawn is even thicker, forcing the waning moon in the middle of the head to seem to dim a little. He looked up at the waning moon, and all that echoed in his ears were Xiaobi's words, Xuanyuan Ling's smart and delicate face seemed to be hidden behind the waning moon, secretly crying.

Xiaoling, where the hell are you? He thought as he took the horse tied under the tree. He untied the reins, then rolled over and got on his horse. Gently clamp the horse's belly, and the crisp sound of the horse's hooves sounds, in the silent night, it is like a crisp bead in the ears. It was the middle of winter, and as dawn approached, the ground was covered with hoarfrost, and in the moonlight, it was even whiter. The horse ran faster and faster, and a cold rushed towards him, and he only felt that from head to toe, it was like immersing himself in an ice cellar.

※※※Once Chinese New Year's Eve passes, the New Year is not far away.

Dao Yun really kept his word, and on the second day, he sent Xiaobi to the "Guard Palace". Fortunately, now there are more than 100 people in the entire Guards Battalion. Vacating a house is not a problem. It's just that Xiaobi lives in such a large group of men, which is a little inconvenient after all.

On the second day, Lin Yinghuan put on a grand ceremony and respectfully invited Tao Yu to return to the north. The honor guard is prosperous, blocking several streets, Tao Yu's temporary palace and Zhu Huai's governor's palace is not far away, the day is crowded with people, from the temporary palace to the governor's palace, the black pressure is full of people, so that the traffic on both streets is almost paralyzed. Zhu Xiaolong came to Wu Ming to learn boxing, but he was squeezed out of the back door. However, Tao Yu has already expressed his attitude at the Chinese New Year's Eve party, Lin Yinghuan, to be precise, Li Tie's move, is destined to be fruitless, but the whole of Nanning, now this big thing is not spreading.

Fortunately, the next day, Tao Yu issued an order to calm the people, informing that he did not plan to return to Kyoto for the time being, and Zhu Huai also stepped up patrols, and finally even Dai Yu's naval army stationed outside the city was alarmed, and this farce slowly subsided.

Nanning's New Year's flavor is getting heavier and heavier, but the battle between Persia and Nanban is getting tighter day by day, and both sides use refueling tactics near tidal cities to continuously increase troops. On December 22, the Persian Pegasus commander Jun Hejian led the Persian army to arrive, join forces with the original Persian army, and launch another strong attack. The Southern Barbarians were caught off guard and suffered a big loss, but fortunately, Yulusa led the remaining Mountain Dog Army to fight to the death in front and finally withstood the Persian tide of attacks.

The deadwood monk arrived, and the Southern Barbarian Master Li Mopa had a big battle, and the fight was turned upside down, and finally the two of them fought more and more powerfully, all the way to the Jiyu Forest, in the forest, "strange beasts are everywhere, and the third section is a dog." "Therefore, no one dared to go in to see it, and for a while, the two parties lost the news of the two great grandmasters.

Losing the news of the two great masters, the anger of the Nanban and Persia has not stopped at all, and the two countries have a feud, but now they are even more on fire. The two sides were near Tide City, with a small fight in three days and a big fight in five days.

Compared with the heat in the south, the Eastern Han Dynasty was a little quiet. Except for the fact that there are many more pigeons flying from the Doge's Palace every day, the rest is not much different from before. Zhu Huai has obviously regarded Wu Ming as his own now, and sometimes discusses some important things, and even calls Wu Ming to go. However, Wu Ming himself knows that Zhu Huai's move is probably the majority of the elements that are being wooed, and the real secret, this Jiangnan governor will definitely not let him know, although he is still Zhu Xiaolong's martial arts master.
