Daqin Zhentiansi

Chapter 94 Aren’t you afraid that your sword-drawing speed will slow down?

Ying Luo, the prince of Guwang Mansion, is of the same generation as Zhao Yu.

King Gu and King Zhao were both stationed in the northwest border of Great Qin, and they were recognized by their descendants at reunions.

"Prince, isn't it Princess Fengming who came from Prince Zhao's Mansion?" The middle-aged warrior standing behind Ying Luo showed surprise on his face and looked towards the waiting area of ​​Yuntai Garden in front of him.

"Could it be——"

Ying Luo nodded, his eyes gleaming.

"Amazing! They say King Zhao is a rare wise man among the royal family, and his actions are difficult for outsiders to understand. Now it seems to be true."

"Princess Fengming is in the light, while Princess Yuruo is in the dark."

“Those who accomplish great things must be willing to make sacrifices and be bold.”

He heaved a sigh of relief, a look of emotion flashing across Ying Luo's face: "Compared to King Zhao, my father and I are not magnanimous enough."

Watching Zhao Yu leave, a trace of determination appeared in Ying Luo's eyes.

"You go and find out where Princess Yuruo lives. I'll go see Xiao Tonglin."

"The Zhenbei Army came here to destroy the alliance between Prince Zhao's Mansion and the Ouyang family."

"They will definitely take action."

"Even if they are unwilling to take action, a relic is enough to make them do so."

……

Yuntaiyuan, backcourt position.

Fenglan was sitting next to the dressing table, holding a wooden comb in her hand.

Qi Yue, holding a long sword, stood guarding the door, while Qin Yuqing, wearing a green long dress, stood in front of the dressing table.

"Major General Ouyang Xu of the Ouyang family sent someone to deliver the news of the meeting."

"The day after tomorrow at noon, Dingyang Tower in the south of the city."

Qin Yuqing looked up at Feng Lan and whispered, "Princess, I will send people to guard the streets and alleys around Dingyang Tower tomorrow."

"I will accompany the princess to meet Ouyang Xu at that time. If anything happens, I, Black Ice Platform, will escort the princess out of the city as quickly as possible."

"The Black Cavalry outside the city will escort the princess back to Luyang Prefecture."

Feng Lan's expression was complicated as she nodded. "If we can get the Ouyang family to surrender, there will be no more wars in Luyang Prefecture, and at least hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians won't have to sacrifice their lives."

"For this purpose, it doesn't matter if I, Ying Fenglan, die in Toyota County."

Feng Lan looked at Qin Yuqing and said softly, "Sister Qin, thank you for your hard work."

Qin Yuqing's face was solemn, and he clasped his fists and said, "It is my duty, and I will do whatever it takes."

Qin Yuqing and Qi Yue retreated out of the door, and Feng Lan's expression gradually became solemn.

"Gu Changshi, please go and see Xiao Tonglin."

"Just say that the conditions originally agreed to by Prince Zhao's Mansion remain unchanged. In addition, a golden body and jade bones will be given as a gift."

Tongyue Inn.

When there was a knock on the door, Zhang Yuan's aura instantly changed, transforming into that of a mid-stage post-natal realm.

When I opened the door, I saw Zhao Yu outside with a gloomy look on his face. He was holding a wine jug in one hand and two wine glasses in the other. The waiter next to him was holding a few plates of snacks.

"I know you didn't come downstairs for dinner."

Zhao Yu walked into the room, asked the waiter to serve the dishes, sat down and filled two wine glasses.

Zhang Yuan and Zhao Yu also had dinner together, but they didn't drink.

He never drinks and has never seen Zhao Yu drink before.

Zhang Yuan sat down opposite Zhao Yu. Zhao Yu picked up the wine glass, saw Zhang Yuan didn't move, and shook his head: "You don't drink."

"You said drinking makes you slower at drawing a sword."

Zhao Yu raised his head and drank the wine in his glass, then stuck out his tongue.

"So wine is so spicy..."

Zhang Yuan sat there without saying a word, while Zhao Yu drank and ate by himself.

"Brother Zhang, have you ever hated your origins?"

Zhao Yu stopped the bamboo chopsticks in his hand and looked at Zhang Yuan.

"With your talent and means, if you were born into a large family, your future would be limitless."

"If you were in the county government, you would definitely be practicing martial arts now."

"In Luyang Prefecture, you don't have any chance."

Zhang Yuan knew that what Zhao Yu said was true.

In Luyang Prefecture, he was able to become the acting captain of the Wuwei Yamen, which was something he had never dared to imagine before.

In fact, he should have been just an ordinary black robe guard, a military guard for his whole life.

"Then, Master Zhao, have you ever hated your own background?" Zhang Yuan spoke softly with a calm expression.

Zhao Yu trembled all over, and tried to pick up the peanuts with his bamboo chopsticks, but he couldn't.

Zhao Yu slammed the bamboo chopsticks on the table, his palms trembling slightly.

"Countless soldiers of the Great Qin shed their blood on the borders, and countless people of the Great Qin supported this world. What right do I have to resent it?"

“Who among us doesn’t have our own responsibilities?”

"I just, just..."

Zhao Yu didn't know what to say, so he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Zhang Yuan didn't say anything.

The future of a princess is mostly about marriage, right?
Fine clothes, delicious food, glory and wealth will eventually have to be exchanged for yourself.

Picking up the wine glass on the table, Zhang Yuan clinked it against the glass in Zhao Yu's hand.

Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Aren't you worried that your sword-drawing speed will slow down?"

She slammed her wine glass against Zhang Yuan's glass, then drank it all in one gulp.

Zhang Yuan brought the wine glass to his lips and took a sip.

Very spicy indeed.

"Brother Zhang, I'm leaving tomorrow."

Zhao Yu looked at Zhang Yuan and whispered, "Go back to the county government."

Return to the county government?
Zhang Yuan nodded.

There are many things he doesn't need to know.

After a pause, Zhao Yu spoke again: "Brother Zhang, if you come to the county government someday..."

Zhao Yu paused and shook his head: "Actually, it might be a good thing for you to stay in Luyang Prefecture."

“Sometimes, I really envy you.”

"Outsiders respect you for your righteousness, and the brothers in the yamen obey your orders. Luyang Prefecture may be just a shallow pond, but there are no waves in this pond."

Zhao Yu obviously couldn't hold his liquor very well, and his speech was a little crazy.

Zhang Yuan turned his head to look towards the door of the room, stood up and helped Zhao Yu up.

When I opened the door, Aunt Wu was standing outside.

Zhang Yuan sent Zhao Yu out, and Aunt Wu hugged her and helped Zhao Yu turn around and walk away.

After taking only two steps, Zhao Yu, who had been lowering his head, suddenly struggled free, turned around and grabbed Zhang Yuan's arm and sleeve.

"Brother Zhang, I have a favor to ask of you."

"If, if my aunt is in danger, you must save her..."

Aunt Wu pulled Zhao Yu away and looked at Zhang Yuan: "Master Zhang, my son's drunken talk is just for your listening, don't take it seriously."

"If you go to the county government, remember to come to the Zhao family."

Zhang Yuan nodded and watched them return to their room before closing the door.

At this time, it is already the time to light the lanterns.

Looking at the scattered peanuts on the table, Zhang Yuan was a little dazed.

With his status, it would be impossible for him to have any intersection with a princess in his entire life.

The time Zhao Yu spent in the Wuwei Yamen of Luyang Prefecture made him realize that the royal family is also human.

There is no one in this world who is born superior. Everyone has seven emotions and six desires, and has joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.

This kind of feeling is nothing to others.

But for Zhang Yuan, it is extremely real.

His path of cultivation was too smooth and his level of cultivation improved too quickly.

His life is not something that outsiders can guess.

Today I met a master, fought with him and exchanged sparring skills, and also drank with Zhao Yu, who came from a royal family.

All this is both unreal and real.

People are just people.

Zhang Yuan could feel that his understanding of cultivation had reached a deeper level.

"Grandmaster realm is not far away..."

Standing in front of the window, Zhang Yuan looked towards the north of the city.

Over there is the location of Xiao Tonglin and his Zhenbei Army spies.

Bai Yu and the others, will they take action tonight?
Also, who is the little aunt Zhao Yu mentioned?

He drew a trace of spiritual energy from the fake pill in his dantian, and transformed it into a faint green halo lingering around his body. Zhang Yuan moved his body and stepped out of the window sill like a green cloud, disappearing into the night.
