Chapter 35

Chu Li pondered, and then said again: "There is also the little soldier next to him, who seems to be quite skilled at a young age, you should also check it out."

"Yes," Xu Quan said hastily: "Yesterday, the clerk reported to me that this soldier was transferred from the Green Camp, but the general of the Green Camp was transferred to northern Xinjiang, and the organization was a bit chaotic for the time being. His transfer order has been submitted, and I will go to urge him in a few days."

"After all, Wang Ling is old, and he has been slack in doing things. It's time to retire and return to his hometown." Chu Li said lightly, his voice was in the air, and there was a chill that was colder than the ice and snow in winter, "Lin Mubai is a man. Loyal, capable in dealing with affairs, the most rare thing is that he is loyal to the country and has no selfishness, he is not a pioneer, but a conservative talent, enough to be the clerical management of the Privy Council."

"Yes!" Xu Quan knew that just a few short words would establish a generation of upstarts in the Southern Chu Kingdom, and said in a deep voice, "I will handle this matter. Presumably Wang Taiqing is also willing to retire and return to his hometown to enjoy the rest of his life."

Chu Li walked to the side of the long table and sat down. There was a huge map on the long table. Chu Li held up one hand and carefully groped for the huge territory on the map, slowly falling into thought.

"Your Highness! The person sent by Concubine Dan has been waiting outside all night, are you still missing?" Xu Quan said tentatively in a low voice.

Chu Li raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, looked coldly at the personal attendant who had been with him since he was a child, and said in a cold voice: "If she doesn't leave, I will lead soldiers out to break her legs."

"Yes!" With just one glance, cold sweat trickled down Xu Quan's forehead.He followed Chu Li since he was a child, from being a hostage in Qi State to returning to Shengdu to face the enemy at every step, and now holding a lot of power and holding a high position, he still can't figure out the heart of this master.After carefully exiting the gate, he gave some instructions to his subordinates, and the soldier quickly pulled out a war horse and got on it.

After a while, he came to the gate of the military aircraft camp, and said a few words to a girl in pink palace attire. The girl left quickly with a pale complexion, and returned to the palace of Chu State after a while.

Concubine Dan leaned against the beauty in a leisurely manner. She was dressed in white butterflies and golden gown, which made her skin as white as snow and her eyebrows as picturesque. After hearing the maid's report, she smiled lightly and said: "It's not that I concealed it, It's His Highness who doesn't want to hear about this woman. It's God's will, so I can't blame anyone else."

"Sister," a woman sitting on the warm couch, whose appearance was seven or eight points similar to Concubine Dan, frowned and said cautiously, "If His Highness knows that we have detained the guards of the Green Army who went out to report, I'm afraid Long Yan will be furious. .”

"Is Longyan furious?" Concubine Dan smiled faintly, and said coldly: "He still doesn't dare, the thirteen princes have deep roots, and even if they collapse, the Huainan County King will be there to support them. Within three years, the political situation in Southern Chu Not stable, without the support of my Zhu family, Chu Li, the emperor, will not be safe. Our Highness is a person with the world in mind, how could he always be nested in the poor mountains and rivers in the south, and his eyes are in the north. "

With a click, a pomegranate was pushed away, revealing the crystal clear fruit inside. Dan Fei's knuckles were white, and she pinched hard on a bright red pomegranate, the juice splashed, but she didn't seem to notice it, her eyes were cold Looking ahead, he said in a deep voice: "The fire in Fulu Palace last time didn't burn this bitch to death. This time, I see where she wants to go!"

Outside the window, the scorching sun hangs high, under the bright sun, it is the coldest winter in Southern Chu.

Walking all over the cold snow in Mobei, millions of soldiers and horses worship Yan merchants.

In the 260th and seventh year of the Guangming calendar, people all over the world remembered the feast of gluttonous feast in the Southern Chu of Shu, located on the border of the mainland.Since the Great Qin split a hundred years ago, this is the first gathering of leaders from various countries in many years. In the prosperous capital of Chu State with a strong cultural and historical background of thousands of years, the kings of troubled times put their immature hands together for the first time. , and together with Lang Xiao said that they want to end the chaos and truce, and return the common people of the world to a peaceful paradise.But behind the scenes, they are dispatching troops and generals to investigate secretly. The soldiers' blades are polished in the dark, only waiting for the day when they drink blood on the battlefield.

For a time, in the capital of Southern Chu, black-clothed spies shuttled everywhere, and night ghosts filled every corner.In the territory of Southern Chu, which was already on the verge of saber-rattling, there are more and more guards at every ten steps and one guard at every hundred steps.If you want to sneak out of the gate of Shengdu silently, it is almost impossible to escape.

Qing Xia hid in the shadow of the imperial city, dressed in tight black attire, covered her face with a black cloth, wrapped around her waist with shackles, and wore soft boots, like an elf in the dark night, her eyes gleamed seductively in the darkness.

Running away now is already inopportune, and within only five days, such a big change happened, which made Qingxia secretly hate that this so-called enthronement ceremony disrupted all her plans.

Four days ago, Yan Hui, General Xishang of Xichuan Township, came to Nanchu suddenly. He came one month in advance to congratulate Chuli on the throne of Nanchu, and brought a large number of personal guards to live in Nanchu Ganquan Palace. In order to ensure the safety of the city, the defense of Shengdu was intensified, and all the soldiers and horses from the outer city of the General Aircraft Camp were transferred back to the headquarters of the inner city camp.It was already over when Qingxia received the notice, she had no choice but to go back to Shengdu with the brigade, and walked into this huge cage again.

What happened afterwards was even more unexpected for Qingxia.

Never expected that Wang Taiqing of the Privy Council would be so stupid.It doesn't count if he didn't check the documents of the Privy Council, not only did he not go to Qing Xia to secretly investigate and make up for it, but the old man even copied the personnel list of the Green Battalion Army according to the existing army establishment.The most abominable thing is that Qing Xia was included in it, and even made up a detailed background of her life experience, with eight generations of ancestors all traceable.It almost made Qing Xia think that his name Xia Qing was not made up, but that he really existed.

In order not to smear his official career before retiring and returning to his hometown, Wangling Taiqing forged the roster and gave Qingxia a legal official status.Chu Li wants to recruit talents for the enthronement ceremony in January.In this way, Qingxia, an abandoned concubine who escaped from the cold palace, unexpectedly became Chuli's personal bodyguard by mistake, and issued the black-clothed guard's document token, and became the highest-ranking special soldier in the empire.

It becomes more difficult to escape.However, this is not enough to trap Qing Xia in this square inch.It wasn't until Qi An appeared that Qing Xia really knew that something was wrong.

Following the subordinates of Southern Chu's southern border states, Qi State, another one of the four great empires in the Chinese mainland, also sent envoys to Southern Chu.These two countries, which have been enmity for many years and have been constantly entangled, met in a strange way on the streets of Shengdu in Chu State.The people of Chu State stood on both sides of the road in grief and indignation, staring at the ruler of this powerful country who had fought against Chu State for many years, their eyes almost burst into flames.

On the other hand, Chu Li and Qi An seemed like old friends they hadn't seen for many years. They talked affectionately and walked side by side. Only when their eyes turned occasionally could they see a potential undercurrent.

After Qi An entered the Supreme Harmony Palace, the city defense of Shengdu became dozens of times tense in an instant.It's not just the intervention of the national army, even local martial arts halls and ordinary people are spontaneously paying attention to strangers acting strangely.The number of guards at the Sifang City Gate has more than tripled. There are secret sentries in every corner to monitor secretly, and copper pipes are used to monitor. The post roads, inns, and stables outside the city are all guarded, and even the mountain trails have been closed.The huge imperial city suddenly fell into a tense situation, and it was even more difficult to escape.

Naturally, Qingxia would not like to be trapped in the city like this, besides, staying in the barracks for a long time is not an option.Although she and Yang Feng are still the lowest black-clothed guards and are only responsible for the defense of the outer city, there is no guarantee that Chu Li will not see them through one day.For this man, she has always been extremely careful, for fear of being caught by him if she shows a little bit of a tell.

Hiding in the shadows, holding a roll of silk cloth in her hand, Qing Xia huddled in a corner like a civet cat, observing all around with sharp eyes.From time to time, something was drawn on the wounded silk cloth, time passed slowly, about three hours later, the shift distribution of the sentry at the East City Gate was roughly drawn, Qing Xia turned her head and looked in the direction she came from, that It came out that two strong men who seemed to be drunk were still staying in the wine shop.But from Qingxia's eyes, it can be seen how sober these two are now.

With a swipe of the hook and lock in her hand, she hung on the big tree silently and steadily, Qing Xia grabbed the rope, quickly climbed up like an ape, and within a while, she was already hidden among the leaves.

She has never seen the legendary lightness kung fu, but with the corresponding tools and vigorous skills, she can completely do it.In the darkness, one could only see a shadow flying over the eaves and walls of each house, and disappeared at the end of Suzaku Avenue after a while.

Qing Xia bent down, hugged a huge pillar, slipped in a circle, and landed firmly on the ground.

This is a deep alley, empty of people, across two streets, it is Qingxia's current landing place - the military aircraft camp.But those two streets were full of blades, full of gunpowder.There was no need to get involved, Qing Xia looked at the dark high wall at the end of the alley, and thought to himself, it seems that he can only take this way back to the camp.

Inside the high wall is the Nanchu Prison that Qingxia took care of at the beginning, this sky prison where Qi An was imprisoned is now abandoned, only a few idle soldiers are guarding it.Because of the tense situation in Shengdu, all the prisoners were transferred to Jinghua City, the neighboring capital.

After a busy night, Qing Xia was also a little tired, silently counting Yang Feng's time on duty, Qing Xia quickly ran towards the high wall.However, at this moment, a burst of vigilance suddenly rose, almost without any warning, Qing Xia stopped in an instant, leaned back, landed on her back, and kicked her right foot out with a bang, He kicked someone hard.
