Chapter 131

"Big brother, I was already in trouble yesterday, and I'm no longer a child!" Li Li raised his head and said confidently, realizing that his voice was too loud, he secretly glanced at Situ He, and immediately lowered his head. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Li Shu was shocked by her oath, stretched out his hand and touched Li Li's head happily, and said with a smile: "Hahaha, yes, my little fox is all gone!" Immediately changed color, pinched her cheek vigorously, and hummed: "In the eyes of the eldest brother, she is also a little girl, and she talks a lot!" Hurry up and eat! ”

"Oh." Li Li rubbed his pinched face, but he did not refute it obediently, and buried his head in eating obediently and gently.

Li Shu poured a glass of wine for Situ He and himself, picked it up, squinted his eyes and said: "General He, your old man has been very stingy, this is the first time you have been treated to a treat in these years, it is not easy to drink your wine, come, the little one will toast you!" ”

Situ He picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Uncle Guo's Mansion is not bad for these wine money, right?" If you really don't have any wine to drink, isn't the son of Shengjing's No. 1 Wine Shop your best friend? What kind of wine can't be drunk? ”

"Hehe, General He, are you jealous of the little me, or are you jealous of Du Gongzi of the first wine shop? You found that the charm of the master is endless, right? Li Shu smiled cheaply, quite proudly, drank the wine in the cup, and happily "sizzled", and said strangely: "Hey! This wine is good! I said, does the proprietress of Bibo Pavilion look down on the master, why don't you see this kind of good wine on weekdays? I haven't drunk it all these years, so I have to ask her! ”

Situ He picked up the wine jug and added a glass for him, laughing at his lack of knowledge: "This is the 'forget the sorrow and drunk' paid tribute by the Beijun Government, rewarded by His Majesty, I heard that the stamina is great, and the two glasses that are not good for the amount of wine are poured." ”

Li Shu's eyes widened, and he drank another glass indignantly and said: "I'll just say, the best things in the world have been given to your Situ family, and no matter how rich my family is, I can't buy 'forget my worries and get drunk', it's not fair, alas, it's really unfair!" ”

Saying so, he was angry and angry, but Li Shu's eyes were not a little jealous, he was extremely frank, and he asked after eating for a while: "What's wrong today, I remembered to drink with my master?" ”

Li Li was eating on the side, listening to them talking, without interjecting a word, occasionally giving Li Shu a dish, after a while, he sandwiched it three times, as if he didn't want to go, and sandwiched a piece of sauce elbow for Situ He, seeing that Li Shu and Situ He were looking at her, Li Li hurriedly explained: "Hehe, this dish is quite delicious, big brother, you ...... Taste it. ”

As she spoke, she buried her head in the bowl, and the longevity lock hanging from her chest hit the edge of the table with a crisp sound.

Situ He didn't eat much food all night, just drank, looked down at the sauce elbow in the bowl, although Li Li strongly recommended it, he still didn't move his chopsticks, and replied to Li Shu: "I'm going back to the northwest border tomorrow, I don't know when I will come back, let's have two more drinks with you before leaving." ”

The chopsticks in Li Li's hand fell with a "snap", which attracted the attention of the two again, she bent down awkwardly to pick it up, and after getting up, he smirked: "I...... I'll go and ask Xiao Er to change his chopsticks. ”

Li Shu frowned: "Little fox, so many things!" Go, go, go! His gaze then turned directly to Situ He: "You said you were leaving?" Yesterday, I entered the palace to see the queen's mother, and I want to leave tomorrow? I don't understand the war at the border pass, isn't there something going on? ”

Situ He's phoenix eyes were calm, and most of the big pot of forgetting worries and drunkenness had been drunk by him, and his voice was smooth and unwavering: "I made a mistake and was even demoted to three levels, but I still stayed in the capital and greedy for pleasure, my father has already presented a recital to His Majesty, and asked me to go back to the northwest to make meritorious contributions." ”

He smiled again: "Accustomed to the wind and sand in the northwest, I actually feel a little dissatisfied with the water and soil of Shengjing, the price is not very comfortable all day, and even the 'flying sand' is fat, and if it goes on like this, I may not be able to travel thousands of miles a day, so it is good to go back early, people and horses have to grind." ”

Situ He talked a lot to himself, Li Shu listened and slammed the wine glass on the table, and the smile on his face disappeared: "Situ He, if you want to go, just leave, explain a fart!" Jiangnan, who gave birth to you and raised you, has lived for so many years and still says that you are not adapted! Don't think I don't know what's going on in your heart, I thought you were okay the last time I came out of the 'Little Place', and I won't be confused anymore! Oh, even if you ask the master to come out and drink something, it won't solve your worries, if you want to say goodbye to that dead girl, you can go to Zuo Xiangfu, she really can't see you? What is the hatred that refuses to see you?! ”

Hearing this, Situ He's face also changed, and he got up and said, "Li Shu, you are too far-fetched, but you are just a few words, you think too much." After waiting for a long time, it's getting dark now, and I'll have to go back and pack up, and I'll be out of town early tomorrow morning. ”

Where could Li Shu stop him, Situ He stepped out of the threshold in three steps and two steps, and turned around to see Li Li leaning against the door, with a petite figure and red clothes...... He didn't stop, but he whispered as he passed her, "Goodbye." ”

Li Li's eyes chased all the way to Situ He's back, she had been in the mood for a whole afternoon, she didn't dare to say the secret things, she only had time to do some small actions to hide, and she hadn't gotten along with him much, and the young man in red clothes and black hair said goodbye to her gently.

Suddenly, a chaotic sound of "crackling" woke up Li Li, and she ran into the private room to see that her eldest brother was already lying on the table, with the black gauze hat aside, and the wine jug containing "forgetting worries and drunk" was broken, and there was no wine left in it.

The next day, just after dawn, Situ He and a group of guards got on their horses, came out of the marshal's palace, and went straight to the city gate. Sheng Jing woke up from his slumber in the early morning, the people in the bazaar became lively little by little, approaching the city gate, Situ He heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, turned around, and saw a red figure galloping towards him, he was ecstatic, immediately tightened the reins, and the mount "Flying Sand" under his crotch hissed, and hurriedly raised his hooves to stop.

The members of the personal guard looked over curiously, and the captain Zhou Cheng saw that the corners of his general's lips were curled, and he was even about to drive his horse to greet him, but when the red shadow was getting closer and closer, and the outline became clearer and clearer, the smile of his general faded little by little, his eyes were dim, and the original happy colors all disappeared.

Not Princess Jing.

It's not Jing Xiaobai.

It's a girl who looks a lot like her.

The body shape, the clothes, the rampage while riding, all very similar.

But, it's just like it, not her.

Li Li's jujube red horse stopped in front of Situ He in a hurry, she didn't get off the horse, her face was red from the wind, and she gasped urgently: "General He, I'...... My eldest brother is drunk and can't come to see you off, the border is far away, you are careful all the way, and the battlefield is dangerous, you ...... Take care. ”

She stammered, took something out of her bosom and handed it over: "This, this is my ...... My eldest brother gave you a birthday gift......"

Situ He's dark and handsome face did not see waves, and the phoenix eyes were fixed on the birthday gift without focus, did not take it, turned the horse's head and said, "Thank you for me, big brother, goodbye." Drive! ”

It is worthy of the good horse "Flying Sand", and in the blink of an eye, it ran out of miles away, stepping out of the thunderous sound.

More than a dozen soldiers in military uniforms and armor galloped on the official road, and the suburbs of the city in May were lush and green, but a cloud of dust rose in the air, which blinded people's eyes.

It was in this misty dust that he watched the young general go away, without blinking an eye, his dark iron armor, his big red cloak, his handsome face...... Every time they met, they gave her a different shock, such a tough and mighty general, heroic and affectionate, which met all her expectations for her partner.

After a long time, when the sound of the horse's hooves had passed away and the dust had cleared, Li Li took the gift back into his arms and drove the horse back to the city. She came to send him, not the eldest brother, she secretly came by herself, and the gift was not given by the eldest brother, she secretly sent it herself.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't accept it, she hasn't done well enough, and it's not too late to send it in the future. However, after going to the Great Northwest, how long will it take for him to come back? How can her patience and perseverance make him know? Could it be that he will never come back for the rest of his life?

Li Lili rode on horseback, wandering aimlessly through the streets, no longer having the rush of the first time when she returned to Shengjing from the floating mountain, she met a carriage head-on, blocking her way, she had just raised her whip and was about to question, a slender hand lifted the curtain, and a woman's beautiful face was revealed behind the curtain.

When Li Li saw the man, he was slightly surprised: "Cousin Luo." ”

The woman in the carriage had a silver lock pearl hanging from her forehead, and she smiled gently: "Tanuki? Why are you here so early in the morning? ”

Li Li's heart was in turmoil, of course she refused to tell the truth, but she would not lie, and said secretly: "Oh, I ...... I'm just strolling around. Mother is still waiting for me to eat, cousin, I won't talk to you. Drive! ”

So saying, he turned his horse's head and went on another road.

Baililuo felt strange, looked at the direction in which Li Li had just come, and asked the people around him: "Where is this road going?" ”

"Out of the city, go north."

"Out of town?" Baili Luo frowned, puzzled, and muttered to himself: "What are you doing out of the city?" ”

As soon as she lowered the curtain and the carriage started again, she heard someone talking on the street: "Early this morning, I saw a general go out of the city, and the black horse was running so fast, the general's red cloak disappeared in the blink of an eye, I don't know if there is another war!" ”

"I heard that the border pass is very chaotic, and the Turks have to go south every year to wreak havoc, but fortunately, Shengjing is southerly, and it will not be affected by the war for a while."

"I can't say that, my two sons are in the northwest, and it is my duty to protect my family and defend the country, even if the war can't reach Shengjing, I can't ...... it."

The people of Shengjing who have a little insight like to discuss state affairs in private, and they suddenly became enlightened after listening to it, the general in red and black horses, except for Situ He, is there no one else, could it be that the sweetheart that Li Li never forgets is Situ He?

Baililuo suddenly curled the corners of his lips, if this is the case, it is also interesting.

"Princess, it's here."

The voice of the maid Chuncui came from outside the curtain, the carriage stopped again, and Baili Luo walked out of the carriage with the support of Chuncui, looked up, and looked at the plaque above his head, which read, "Rugui Restaurant".

"Princess, they have all arrived and are waiting for you upstairs."

Baili fell to the second floor, and sure enough, she saw three people waiting for her in the private room, two of them she knew, namely Cao and An, the sons of two scholars, young and gorgeously dressed, and the other was a middle-aged man about forty years old, dressed in simple green clothes, calm and relaxed.

When the three of them saw her coming, they all stood up, and Cao Gongzi said to the middle-aged man, "Mr. Mu, this is Princess Luo." ”

The middle-aged man saluted respectfully.

Baililuo smiled kindly: "No need to be polite, this is ......"

An Er Gongzi invited Baili to sit down, and introduced: "Oh, this is Mr. Mu, a good friend of my father, and a talented master, he has traveled to famous mountains and rivers, and edited the secret anecdotes of local customs and customs into a book, named "Mu Laosuo's Travels", which has been circulating in the market in recent years. Xiao Sheng thought that since Princess Luo was so interested in Shanchuan Zhi, and it happened that Mr. Mu was passing by Shengjing, he invited Mr. Mu to be our staff officer for this book revision. On a whim, he discussed with Brother Cao that it would be better to invite Princess Luo to get together, maybe he could solve Princess Luo's long-standing doubts, and it could be regarded as a complete expression of Princess Luo's affection for Xiaosheng. ”

Hearing the words of praise, Mr. Mu twisted his beard and said with a smile: "Don't dare, don't dare." Although he is modest, his tone is quite leisurely, and he is very confident.

Baili Luo was overjoyed, and hurriedly got up and saluted: "Please also ask Mr. Mu to teach more." ”

Mr. Mu showed appreciation: "The princess of a country is so humble and studious, it really makes the old man ashamed." I don't dare to teach it, but the old man has indeed traveled to many places in the past few decades, but all the famous mountains and rivers have been involved in the old man. ”

Baililuo looked at Mr. Mu quietly, and said with a smile: "I heard that the floating mountain in Lingnan is a good place to go, but the palace has been trapped in the palace and cannot travel, can you tell me about the customs of the floating mountain?" ”

Mr. Mu nodded, and said eloquently: "Floating Mountain, the old man went to it ten years ago, the place in Lingnan is as warm as spring all year round, many flowers, plants, vegetables and fruits have never been seen in Jiangnan and the Central Plains, and the fresh lychees that are paid to the imperial court every year are produced in Lingnan, I don't know if Princess Luo likes it?" ”

Baililuo smiled: "I like it very much, I didn't expect that lychees are actually produced in Lingnan." ”

"Yes, the lychees transported by the fast horse are still not very fresh, if Princess Luo has tasted the freshly picked lychees, she will understand what the fresh taste is. The place in Lingnan, in fact, is not very big, and there are some small sects entrenched in the rivers and lakes, especially represented by Fuyou Mountain. However, it is also very novel, there are martial arts competitions in other places every year, and the various major factions fight to the death, and they must distinguish the winner and loser, but Lingnan is an exception. The old man once observed their martial arts competition, which was really eye-opening, but it was not a martial arts feast, just a competition and a relationship, that kind of excitement, but it was no worse than the martial arts competition in other places. But ah, because of this, for a long time, when Lingnan is mentioned and Fuyou Mountain is mentioned, there is only a reputation for swaggering and deception, and those larger martial arts sects look down on them, feeling that they are empty, and they have no courage or knowledge, which has ruined the atmosphere of martial arts. Haha, but there are also benefits......" Mr. Mu bowed his head and smiled: "The dark tide of Lutai Mountain, which specializes in martial arts wizards, is turbulent, but Fuyou Mountain has never been in trouble, and the relationship between the disciples is harmonious, which is due to the atmosphere of Lingnan, if you don't fight, you won't lose." ”

"Lutai Mountain?" A hint of strangeness flashed in Baililuo's eyes, and a slight smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of her lips, originally she mentioned the floating mountain was just an introduction, but at this time, Mr. Mu himself talked about Lutai Mountain, so she pretended to be curious and asked.

The three people present listened carefully, Mr. Mu took a sip of tea, and continued: "The location of Lutai Mountain is strange, and the terrain is also strange. ”

"Oh? What's the difference? Baililuo asked at the right time.

"Say something that might upset Princess Luo......" Mr. Mu smiled, and his smile was meaningful.

"Sir...... But it doesn't hurt to say that. Baililuo maintained a gentle smile.

"The princess is still young, maybe she doesn't know that this Lutai Mountain was the place where the King of Jin sealed Zen hundreds of years ago, at that time, the world was unified, the four seas returned to the heart, Daxing Country was not surnamed Baili, and Xiqin was not surnamed Jun...... In other words, there is no ...... between these two countries," Mr. Mu said with a smile.

Baililuo was taken aback, she really didn't know these historical facts, no one had ever told her about them since she was a child, and then, she heard An Ergongzi say: "Mr. Mu! Don't talk nonsense! ”

Grand Prince Cao also looked at the entrance of the private room very nervously, and said in a low voice: "Be careful that the partition wall has ears!" It's hard to kill your head! How can you be so confused, sir! ”

Mr. Mu laughed loudly: "You young people, you are timid! What do people live for? It's for the sake of solving puzzles! For the old man, if he can tell more people what he sees and knows, or just those who want to know the truth, then after a hundred years, he will feel worthy of his heart. Today's saints are not so narrow-minded, and they have to cut off the old man's head for such a trivial matter, besides, as a monarch, he should be clear about these old things in the past, so what is the old man afraid of? ”

Baililuo immediately got up, picked up the teacup and said: "Mr.'s words have benefited Baililuo a lot, and Baililuo toasts Mr. with tea instead of wine!" ”

Such a respectful attitude surprised An Cao and the others, Mr. Mu still looked calm and relaxed, and said in his mouth: "Don't dare, don't dare, Princess Luo's bearing is really extraordinary, she deserves to be an emperor's daughter, her heart is so broad-minded, and the tiger father has no dog girl......

Baili Luo said: "Mr. has won the award." Turning his head to look at An Cao and the others, he smiled slightly: "The palace just remembered that the two sons still have official business, and the hour is not early, don't delay the business......"

An Cao and the others were afraid of causing trouble, although they were extremely curious about what Mr. Mu said, they really didn't dare to stay here anymore, Baili Luo gave them excellent steps, and they immediately went down: "Thank you Princess Luo for reminding them, Xiaosheng will leave first!" Mr. Mu, I must come to the cold house another day, my father is very worried. ”

"Princess Luo, Xiaosheng retires!"

After An Cao and the others left, Baililuo asked the maid Ding Tongtong who came with him to guard the door, personally poured a cup of tea for Mr. Mu, and said with a slow smile: "I have stayed in the palace for too long, and my knowledge is like a frog at the bottom of a well. Mr. Bu said that my husband was taught by Lutai Mountain, which is also quite fateful, so I have always been quite curious about Lutai Mountain, and it seems that I heard that Lutai Mountain is the middle place between Western Qin and my great rejuvenation country, but since it is an important border defense area, it does not intervene, and I really don't know the reason. The princes in the palace are very pedantic and refuse to solve their doubts, so I want to ask Mr. for advice today. ”

Mr. Mu stroked his beard and nodded: "It turns out that Princess Luo's husband is from Lutai Mountain...... The old man has not met such a like-minded person as Princess Luo for many years, alas, the insight and courage of the sons of the two old men are actually inferior to the woman, which really disappointed the old man. ”

Then he finally got to the point: "Speaking of the unification of the world hundreds of years ago, the King of Jin then sealed Zen in Lutai and sacrificed to heaven and earth. More than 100 years later, the royal family declined, the three families were divided, and later, after a hundred years of war, there was a situation in which Western Qin and Daxing divided the world. However, the Jun family and the Baili family were grateful for the kindness of the King of Jin, so they set Lutai Mountain, where the King of Jin was enshrined, as the middle place between Western Qin and Dongxing, and all states and counties were not allowed to interfere with the freedom of Lutai Mountain. Since it is a forbidden place, there will naturally not be too many records in the history books and local chronicles, which is why many people do not know the details of the bottom of Lutai Mountain. ”

Although Baililuo understood these words, she didn't quite understand, thinking of the ancient tomb that Lin Cenzhi had mentioned, a thought unconsciously came to her mind: "Since the location of Lutai Mountain is so important, why are Xiqin and Daxing so laissez-faire?" ”

She said, smiling slightly: "According to the personality of the ancestors, I'm afraid I won't ignore Lutai Mountain, and then look at the consistent style of the Western Qin Emperor, it doesn't seem like he would retreat casually, more than ten years ago, didn't Western Qin and Daxing still go to war because of the border dispute?" It is an indisputable fact that the border battle has always been fought for every inch of land, and the two countries easily let go of such a large area as Lutai Mountain? Don't you think it's strange, sir? Isn't there a secret hidden? ”

When Baili Luo said this, her tone gradually became resolute and almost forced, and she unconsciously broke the gentle attitude that Fang had been holding, but she herself was unaware.

Mr. Mu listened carefully, his eyes showed a look of approval, and he was quite surprised: "Princess Luo's opinion has opened the old man's eyes, and his heart and mind are not inferior to any man, and the old man really wants to be impressed by the princess." ”

After complimenting, he drank tea leisurely, as if he had no intention of continuing, and did not want to answer her questions, until Baililuo was in a hurry, he raised his head and said with a smile: "The secret that the princess said, but the ancient tomb under the cliff of Lutai Mountain?" ”

Baililuo straightened up abruptly and asked in surprise, "Sir knows about that ancient tomb?!" ”

Mr. Mu still had the same unhurried attitude, drank all the tea in the cup, got up, casually dusted off the dust on the simple green shirt, and said: "Princess Luo, the old man is a little tired today, so go back to rest first." When people get old, there are many problems. When I was young, I suffered too much, and when I was old, I couldn't stand it. ”

As he spoke, he really took a step and walked out, Baililuo also got up, and just wanted to hold him, but Mr. Mu turned around and said as if unintentionally: "I only heard that the King of Jin will never forget Lutai Mountain after sealing Zen, maybe it will be buried in Lutai Mountain after a hundred years, and it is not impossible." Otherwise, the old man really doesn't know. ”

This sentence made Baililuo's eyes widen in shock, and his footsteps were fixed in place, but he heard Mr. Mu laugh again, and there was no rise and fall between his eyebrows: "Dare to ask Princess Luo's husband's surname?" ”

"Han ......" Baililuo had not yet recovered from his surprise, and blurted out.

Mr. Mu nodded as if he understood, turned around, and muttered to himself, "That's it." ”

Baili lost his soul and stood firmly on the table, the King of Jin buried his bones in Lutai Mountain, and there happened to be an ancient tomb there, could it be the tomb of King Jin? Xiqin and Daxing set Lutai Mountain as a forbidden place so tacitly, just to cover up this matter?

If this is the case, then what did Han Ye go to Lutai Mountain for? As the prince of the vassal king, he spent four years concentrating on martial arts, and he could neither win the master of the martial arts alliance nor be the champion of martial arts, wouldn't he have done all the useless things? Han Ye hasn't been stupid enough to do this......

From this point of view, there must be something he wants on Lutai Mountain, and that thing will be in the ancient tomb?

seems to have solved the puzzle, and seems to have fallen into a deeper mystery, but she is finally clearing the fog little by little, originally just wanted to take the opportunity of revising the mountains and rivers to let Cao and An help her find clues about Lutai Mountain, but she didn't expect the two of them to be so enthusiastic and invite Mr. Mu to introduce her to her, wouldn't God help her?

Thinking of this, Baililuo hooked the corners of his lips, walked out quickly, and said to the maid Chuncui and the others who were waiting outside: "Go to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
