Zhutian: My skills are not serious

Chapter 715: I have killed several emperors, let alone the prince?
Near noon, southeast of Yingxiang City.

The autumn wind blows across the hills, half of the city's reeds are white and the other half are yellow.

Chu Pingsheng's conspicuous chartered carriage was stopped by a soldier from the Feng Camp. Everyone in Lingzhou City knew about Prince Beiliang's carriage.

Huanggua, who was sitting near the door, took the letter and handed it to Chu Pingsheng.

"What's written on it?"

Green Ant asked, and Zhao Fengya also pricked up her ears to listen like a curious baby. Even Xu Weixiong, who was stretched out by Chu Pingsheng's legs in his arms and ravaged from head to face to buttocks, had a strange light in his dazed eyes.

"Xu Fengnian said that with the help of Beiliang's spies, my cousin Lin Xiao avoided Zhao Heng's troops and went north along the Yanzi River. When she was about to enter Yongzhou, she was kidnapped by a group of bandits. In order to curry favor with King Qingcheng, the leader offered Lin Xiao to the Shenxiao Sect. Now he has rushed to Qingcheng Mountain, hoping that Wu Lingsu can release her for King Beiliang's sake. He asked us to speed up and meet up at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain. If we are late, the consequences will be disastrous."

Cucumber said: "What consequences can there be?"

Chu Pingsheng handed the letter to Green Ant and explained, "King Wu Lingsu of Qingcheng has a bad reputation. He is the best at the secret technique of taking Yin to replenish Yang. He got the title of King Qingcheng because of this technique and won the favor of Zhao Chun, and was given the title of King."

Zhao Fengya said: "Qingcheng King Wu Lingsu is so bold that he even dares to arrest your people."

Huanggua pinched her little face, which had gained a little weight recently because she hadn't been hungry. "You didn't take the comments of passers-by seriously at all along the way. Who is more famous, you or Qilin Zhenren?"

"Of course it's Qilin Zhenren."

Qilin Zhenren is the national teacher of Beimang and a big shot of Daode Sect. Her Highness Princess has some common sense about this.

"In the battle of Lingzhou City, ordinary people could not tell who was who, but they must have been deeply impressed by the Fire Kirin who set fire to the city. Li Yishan had people deliberately exaggerate the importance of Kirin Zhenren in this matter. No matter how much the outside world thinks highly of the young master, they would not think that Kirin Zhenren was his follower."

"So what you mean is that Wu Lingsu doesn't take the young master seriously at all?"

"I suspect he probably doesn't know who Lin Qing is. A guy who studies sex techniques every day and has a bunch of female disciples around him, how could he have time to do anything else?"

While talking about Wu Lingsu, Cucumber's pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes squinted again and again, making Green Ant feel very uncomfortable. Because before leaving, she pressed her master to sleep in the room for a whole day. The next day, Cucumber chased and beat her, asking her if she had gotten addicted to it and was afraid that she would not have the chance to eat alone on the road, so she might as well eat herself a lot before leaving so that she wouldn't want it for a month.

As maids in Wutong Garden, Green Ant, Huanggua, Baigan and others talked about men in private and talked about those things without restraint. As Princess Liyang, Zhao Fengya found it difficult to understand the maid culture and tried very hard to fit in and avoid being excluded.

"Anyone who dares to touch the young master will be in trouble."

Chu Pingsheng said: "I'll say it again, you three are my people, Lin Xiao doesn't count."

Cucumber raised her thin eyebrows slightly and was no longer jealous of the green ant. Her heart was filled with sweetness and she was chewing candy in her mouth, looking forward to the arrival of winter. When winter came, she would have the opportunity to warm her bed.

Zhao Fengya asked stubbornly, "Why doesn't Lin Xiao count? Isn't she your cousin?"

Chu Pingsheng did not explain his relationship with the Qingzhou Lin family. He withdrew his feet from teasing Xu Weixiong who was curled up in the corner of the carriage, laid his head in Lu Yi's arms, and glanced at the faint autumn mountains outside the window.

"Zhao Fengya, you've been hiding food again, haven't you?"

Princess Suizhu bit half of her lip, frowned, and slowly took out a yellow paper package from her wide sleeves. Inside was half a pound of dragon beard crisps that she bought from the Thirteenth Square, which had been open for nearly a hundred years, while passing through the main street of Yingxiang City and sneaking into the street while urinating.

"I... I didn't hide it. I just saw a lot of people gathered in front of the shop. I've never seen this before, and it looks delicious, so I bought half a pound for everyone to try."

She was so nervous that even Huanggua blushed for her: "Zhao Fengya, I'm curious, where did you get the money to buy this?"

Princess Suizhu went to Wudang Mountain with Han Diao Si, so she didn't need to bring money with her. When she came down from the mountain, her two night-light pearls were confiscated and handed over. Her daily work was to bathe and change clothes for her master, massage her legs and back, and she had no chance to leave Wutong Garden to go to the city to purchase. This arrangement was to prevent her from escaping. This morning, when she passed by Yingxiang City, she said it was convenient to get off the car. Huanggua wanted to follow her, but her master suddenly decided to buy two buns to feed the dog, and said that Zhao Fengya couldn't run away, so she was allowed to do what she wanted. Who knew that she would be hungry for nine meals in three days at the foot of Wudang Mountain, and she had a shadow in her life from then on. The Nizi who hid the reserve food everywhere in Wutong Garden actually hid her private money.

"The silver was given to me by the second cook and the servant in the kitchen." She was very honest and told the whole story.

"Have you also learned to accept bribes?"

The Flying General destroyed half of the palace, and Xu Xiao, Xu Fengnian, Li Yishan and others moved to the military camp outside the city. They no longer needed the facilities such as the kitchen, tea house, and layout, but they did not dare to withdraw. They had to pay more silver to appease those people and serve the moody Master Lin in Wutong Garden. The fate of the tea house clerks was there. Even if they were paid a lot of monthly silver, they had to live to spend it. Once they were not satisfied, they would provoke the demon star to be furious. Beheading was a small matter, but killing nine clans was a big matter. With such a premise, it was easy to understand that the servants of the palace bribed Zhao Fengya, a heartless rookie maid, with silver to collect intelligence.

"Is this considered bribery?" In Zhao Fengya's eyes, the gold bars and jewelry packed in large wooden boxes were considered bribery. Silver was not considered bribery, and even the smallest copper coins were not considered money. If she had not been kidnapped by Lin Qing, she would have treated it as garbage and walked around it if she saw it on the street.

Zhao Fengya glared at him with her peach blossom eyes, and quickly raised her pink little hands, tilted her head and closed her eyes to accept the punishment.

"Alright, let's remember her mistakes and let her make amends."

Chu Pingsheng's words brought the lawsuit to an end. Zhao Fengya raised her eyes slightly, blinked seductively, and knelt in front of her master, pinching the dragon beard pastry with one hand and holding it with the other hand.

Chu Pingsheng opened his mouth and took a small bite. It was soft and dense, sweet but not greasy, and had a layered texture when chewed. It was really good. He thought to himself that no wonder it dared to call itself a century-old store and there was a circle of people gathered at the door.

"That's enough, eat it yourself."

Zhao Fengya looked at the dragon beard pastry that he had bitten off in his hand. In order not to waste food, she naturally put it in her small hand and raised it to her mouth. She ate it all in no time, and a layer of white glutinous rice flour was stained on her lips.

Chu Pingsheng reached out his hand and wiped off the powder next to the teardrop mole at the corner of her eye, in exchange for a flattering smile. Huanggua was amazed in private. During the days in Wutong Garden, she had assigned Zhao Fengya a lot of heavy work, such as washing clothes, mopping the floor, wiping the table, fetching water and burning firewood. She was exposed to the wind and sun, getting up early and going to bed late. As a result, she became more and more beautiful. Her hands, face and body did not look like a maid at all. If she was said to be a princess, few people would believe it, but a lady from a wealthy family would definitely not doubt it.

Of course, Cucumber didn't know that Zhao Fengya always had leftovers after serving her master, and she didn't mind eating his leftovers with the attitude of not wasting anything but food. This made her radiant and youthful.

Green Ant was also puzzled at first, but later he saw his master making an elixir and mixing the dandruff that Zhao Fengya rubbed off during bathing into the medicine powder. Then he gradually understood the changes in his body. People in Lingzhou City called him the big devil, which was very one-sided. He was right to say that he was a doctor who saved the dying and healed the wounded, because he himself was a walking elixir of good fortune. Xu Weixiong volunteered to be a dog for Lin Qing. He occasionally had some bad tastes, such as asking her to lick the dust off her feet. It seemed to be humiliating her, but for people with serious illnesses who could not be cured, it was no less than a reward for a new life.

"Xu Fengnian, Wu Lingsu, Zhao Yutai, huh..."

Chu Pingsheng pushed the bamboo mat open a little and said to the driver, "Old Xu, hurry up and try to get to Qingcheng Mountain by evening."

"Yes."

The old man, who had put on a sheepskin coat before winter and wrapped his calves with two layers of cotton cloth, shook the reins, and Zhao Yebai raised his black hooves that had been trimmed before departure, swung his tail, raised his head, neighed, and galloped forward. The rapidly turning copper and silver shafts raised a circle of yellow dust.

Hey.

The carriage sank into the horizon. Suddenly, a dark shadow appeared from below the clouds and tore the gyrfalcon flying north into pieces. Its feathers and flesh were blown away by the wind. A small piece of paper fell and floated away.

……

evening.

At the foot of Qingcheng Mountain, on the stone steps leading to Qingyang Palace, there stood a dozen female disciples of the Shenxiao Sect wearing white long skirts inside and blue gauze clothes outside. Each of them had her own beauty and would be one in a hundred in Yingxiang City. Now, holding long swords, they looked murderously at the two carriages that were getting closer and closer on the sidewalk. The black carriage in front had been parked at the intersection for almost half an hour, and the bronze and silver luxury carriage behind had just arrived.

Just like before, Huanggua first led Xu Weixiong to the front of the carriage as a stepping stone, and then Chu Pingsheng walked out of the carriage and stepped on her body to get off. There was no movement in Xu Fengnian's carriage. It was unknown whether he was not there, or he knew that he could not take back his second sister who was humiliated every day, so he simply hid in the carriage like a turtle.

Ning Emei, dressed in military uniform, stepped forward with repressed anger and told him that His Royal Highness had just negotiated with the people of Shenxiao Sect, asking Wu Lingsu to release Lin Xiao for the sake of King Beiliang. King Qingcheng Wu Lingsu ignored him and did not show his face. Li Yufu was so angry that he rushed in with a sword, and was forced back by the female disciples of Shenxiao Sect standing on the long steps. At this point, His Royal Highness could do nothing to help. Chu Pingsheng said it was okay, dismissed the people, put his hands behind his back, and told Huanggua to lead Xu Weixiong to follow, and climbed the steps step by step, walking towards the magnificent mountain gate with carved beams and embroidered pillars in front.

Xu Fengnian's carriage shook, and the blue cloth curtain opened a crack, revealing half a person's face in the dim light. A gaze filled with hatred moved up little by little with his footsteps.

Li Chungang sat diagonally opposite, with his legs stretched out, his big feet protruding a lot from his straw sandals, rubbing his big toe and second toe, rubbing off a bunch of grayish-white dandruff. The space in the car was limited, and the veil had been taken off. He held a reed in his mouth, which he pushed up, looking very relaxed.

Yu Youwei and the white cat in her arms were not relaxed but very nervous. They could still tolerate the one-armed old man's slovenliness, but the problem was that his face covered with scars was too scary. She remembered the first time she saw him, Wu Meiniang's body was covered with thorns and her ears were folded backwards. It took her a long time to comfort him before he felt better.

"At that time, Hao said that he didn't care about the lives of the Lin family, but it turned out to be a lie."

Xu Fengnian removed his fingers, and the green cloth shook, blocking the sunlight. He planned and implemented the incident in which Lin Xiao was kidnapped by bandits and presented to Qingcheng Mountain. Li Yishan's task for him was to stir up conflicts between Lin Qing and Zhao Heng as much as possible when he arrived in Qingzhou, and the bigger the better, and try to drag the Zhao family of Liyang into the water, and use the whole country's strength to get rid of this big devil.

As the Prince of Qingcheng, Wu Lingsu was a nail planted by the imperial court in the southeast of Beiliang. His duty was to cooperate with the Qingzhou Army of Prince Jing'an to monitor the movements of Beiliang. Now, with a little trick, he could use Lin Qing's hand to pull out this nail.

Yu Youwei stroked the white cat's back and said, "Lin Qing, just go ahead and break through the formation. Why did you bring your second sister up the mountain?"

Only then did Xu Fengnian realize that Lin Qing only brought Huanggua and Xu Weixiong out of the car, while Lu Yi and Zhao Fengya were still in his luxury car. He didn't know what he was thinking about, his face changed, and he lifted the entire green cloth curtain and looked at the green stone steps.
