Chapter 94 Chapter 6 Different Hearts

In the early morning of the next day, Shan Rou, who had just tasted the forbidden fruit, kept her promise and took Zhao Zhi to the garden to practice swords as if nothing had happened. Jing Jun remembered the beautiful village girl and went back to the pasture just after dawn. Feng accompanied Xiang Shaolong to have breakfast. Wu Guo came in at this time and said: "Marquis Pingshan sent a message, please come to his residence in the afternoon." Xiang Shaolong's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately realized that it was not Han Chuang who was guarding the city but Queen Jing herself, otherwise Han Chuang would not be able to get an appointment with Zhao's first lady so easily.

Thinking about it carefully, this is also reasonable.Now all the generals in Handan belong to different factions, but he is the only one who has not yet been related to the major factions. If he is sealed off to guard the city, he will naturally develop a heart of understanding towards Queen Jing.In the future, when King Xiaocheng passed away and Queen Jing became the queen mother in power, he, Xiang Shaolong, would become her most powerful confidant and general. But why did she fall in love with herself? Wu Guo saw that he was silent and didn't dare to disturb him, and was about to step back, so he called Xiang Shaolong back and asked, "How's the situation outside?"

Wu Guo Gongli reported: "It's much calmer, but there are still Zhao soldiers intercepting pedestrians everywhere on the street, and King Xiaocheng posted a notice again, not allowing residents to take in any strangers for accommodation, and Zhao soldiers are checking all hotels." Tian Zhen and Tian Feng both had a good impression of Wu Guo, seeing his respectful appearance, they couldn't help laughing, Wu Guo would also wink at the two women whenever Xiang Shaolong was out of sight, which made the two women even more happy. Xiang Shaolong suddenly said: "Wuguo!"

Wu Guo was taken aback, and quickly responded. Xiang Shaolong said: "Find someone for me to inform Cai Cainv that I will formally visit her at dusk and hope to have dinner with her." Wu Guo took the order and went. Zhao Zhi and Shan Rou came back dripping with sweat, and sat on both sides of Xiang Shaolong, while the Tian sisters got up to wait on them. Xiang Shaolong thought of Shanrou's touching body and wild and alluring beauty last night, and said sweetly in his heart: "Don't you guys want to take a bath first?" Shanrou was noncommittal, but Zhao Zhi happily said: "I'm so hungry!" He ate and said: "Sister Rou's footwork is much slower today, and I can keep up with it."

Naturally, Xiang Shaolong understood the reason why his footwork was slow, and he almost spat out the steamed buns in his mouth. Shanrou blushed, and twisted Xiang Shaolong's poor thigh fiercely. Zhao Zhi was stunned for a moment, but Xuan seemed to realize something, his pretty face turned red, and he ate silently with his head bowed. The atmosphere was extremely awkward. Xiang Shaolong was amused in his heart, he patted his stomach and stood up after imitating each of the two women for several times, and said: "I also want to go out for a walk, exercise my muscles and bones."

Zhao Zhi said "ah" and said, "Wait for me! I almost forgot that the master asked me to take you to the martial arts hall." Xiang Shaolong sighed: "Are you really going?" Zhao Zhi held a steamed bun in each of his left and right hands, and said with a smile, "Of course! Uh! I want to go to the bathroom." Xiang Shaolong smiled and said, "Is this an invitation?" Zhao Zhiqiao's face turned red, she glanced at him and said: "Your feet don't grow on me, who cares where you go." With a sweet smile, she gave him a wink, and then went.

Xiang Shaolong said to Shanju who bowed his head and chewed: "We'll wait for sister to come!" Shanrou was furious, and swept over with her foot. Xiang Shaolong laughed and walked away, "You are so soft, did you think your footwork was as good as last night, and you almost killed me by pestering me?" Shanrou was so angry that the seven orifices were filled with smoke, she picked up a steamed bun and threw it at the face.Xiang Shaolong took it with one hand gracefully and calmly, bit his mouth by the way, and said thoughtfully, "It's not as delicious as Elder Sister Rou."

Before Shan Rou jumped up like a mad tiger, he followed Zhao Zhi and slipped into the bathroom. ◇◇◇◇◇◇ That morning was spent at the samurai guild, Zhao Ba asked about "Long Shan", Xiang Shaolong pushed that he had gone to the ranch. When Zhao Zhi directed more than 50 female soldiers in the guild to practice in the training field, Zhao Ba pulled Xiang Shaolong aside and said kindly: "The king called me into the palace last night and asked about you .” Xiang Shaolong was stunned and said, "What's the matter?" Zhao Ba whispered: "It's mainly about how you and your noble servant Long Shan beat Li Yuan that day. Of course I can't praise you enough!"

Xiang Shao Wang Long quickly thanked him, but he was muttering in his heart. Xiaocheng may not be as shrewd as to detect his suspiciousness, but Guo Kai is a cunning and wise person who might become suspicious of their group of horse herders.Of course, King Xiaocheng may just want to arrange a suitable position for him, so he consulted the head coach of Zhao Guo.Hearing Zhao Ba's tone, Xiaocheng seemed to ask him some other things, and he will definitely teach Zhao Zhi to ask about it later. For the sake of everyone's safety, I really want to win over Zhao Ya so that I can detect Guo Kai's conspiracy. Anyway, Zhao Ya has lied to him, and he lied back to her, so this slut has no choice but to accept her fate.

After lunch, Xiang Shaolong left Zhao Zhi in the guild and went to Han Chuang's place alone. The atmosphere in Handan has generally returned to calm, and the number of pedestrians has decreased significantly. From time to time, when I meet soldiers patrolling the city, they all salute and salute him, and he is more dignified than when he was a guard officer. The surrounding area of ​​Han Chuang's residence is even more formidable, full of Zhao soldiers, Xiang Shaolong guessed that Queen Jing came one step ahead of him. Why is she so concerned about herself?It can be seen that she must have a plan, so she urgently needs a cronies to seize the military power in Handan City for her, and he, a newcomer, is the most suitable.

Remembering the quarrel between Queen Jing and Zhao Ya during the banquet, and further thinking that if Queen Jing recommends other people, Zhao Ya will definitely object. If she recommends Dong Mazhi, Zhao Ya may have a completely different attitude. After the notification, Han Chuang went to the hall to meet him, led him into the side hall first, and said solemnly, "Be careful what you say later, my sister Wang is very powerful, if you make a mistake, your job as city guard will be over." Xiang Shaolong couldn't help but asked: "Isn't it well known that Queen Jing met me like this?" Han Chuang said: "I come to Handan this time, and I have another task, which is to escort the Seventh Princess of our country to marry the prince. Queen Jing will come to visit her under the pretext, and she will never raise suspicions." Xiang Shaolong suddenly realized that this political marriage must be facilitated by Queen Jing, and it can be seen that in the Six Kingdoms, Zhao people are very close to Han people. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiang Shaolong asked about He Zong, and Han Chuang said distressedly: "It's not that Tian Dan and Li Yuan took advantage of Yan State's affairs to make a big fuss. Dangerous threat. Both Ji Zhong and I suspect that the main emissaries who attacked you and Lord Longyang are the two of them, and they want to kill Lord Longyang and get rid of you." Xiang Shaolong was stunned. In fact, after Zhao Ya reminded him, his confidence in the person who initially guessed that the attacker was Lord Xinling had begun to waver.Although Tian Dan wanted to win him over, it was just another way to "get rid of" Xiang Shaolong.In this day and age, those who can't use it are simply killed, so as not to make others cheaper. At this time, someone came to report that Queen Jing could see him. Xiang Shaolong followed Han Chuang through two courtyards, passed through a large garden, and saw the First Lady of Zhao State at Neixuankou. After saluting, Queen Jing winked at Han Chuang, and the latter and the servants and guards all retreated, and the remaining two sat opposite each other. With the beautiful clothes and decorations, this country is even more graceful and luxurious, and the beauty is dazzling. Xiang Shaolong secretly compares her with Mrs. Ping Yuan, each is good at winning, it is hard to tell the difference. Queen Jing looked at him with burning eyes, and said indifferently: "Mr. Dong, do you know why the empress is meeting you today?" Judging by her tone, Xiang Shaolong was more sure that it was she who fell in love with him, not Han Chuang. The latter was only ordered to thread the needle, and he replied respectfully: "Han Hou said that Queen Jing is kind enough to know you. In the future, even if You must pay back for your heart and brains." Queen Jing was not moved by his express loyalty at all, and said coldly: "There are two reasons why I think highly of you, sir, do you want to know?" Xiang Shaolong raised his head in astonishment, and wondered to himself, could this beautiful woman who guards the imperial confinement alone have taken a fancy to his "masculinity"? Queen Jing looked at him with beautiful eyes, and said slowly: "The first reason is because Tian Dan also thinks highly of you, so you Dong Kuang should never be sent anywhere." Xiang Shaolong showed a dazed look, and at the same time his curiosity arose, and he asked, "Dare to ask Queen Jing what is the other reason?" Queen Jing sighed softly: "Because I saw the shadow of another person in you, he is also like you, the kind of person who is not afraid of the sky and the earth. It's a pity that the timing is not coincidental, and he will never be able to do it for me. Used." Xiang Shaolong's heart was shocked, he naturally knew that the person she was talking about was himself. Seeing that he was silent, Empress Jing asked in surprise, "Mister, don't you want to know who that person is?" Xiang Shaolong said frankly: "Seeing Queen Jing is full of emotions, I dare not ask about it." Queen Jing nodded slightly in satisfaction with his understanding, and said in a cold tone: "What is the relationship between you and Zhao Mu? Why did he try to do everything possible to transfer the Tian sisters who have already given away to you?" Xiang Shaolong knew that at this moment he must not have the slightest hesitation, nor should he answer her like he answered Zhao Ya.Shrugging his shoulders, he said, "Julu Hou has been favored by me since I came to Beijing. As for the reason, I don't know." Queen Jing glared at him for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "From today onwards, Dong Kuang, you can only be loyal to the king and this queen, otherwise you will be in trouble. No wonder this queen didn't mention you. With Mr. Wisdom, You don’t need to explain it later, you should understand what’s going on!” Xiang Shaolong secretly screamed loudly, this woman carried King Xiao Cheng out to stand side by side with her, it was really hard for him to tell the real from the fake.On the one hand, she used Zhao Mu, but at the same time, she also guarded against Zhao Mu. Queen Jing asked again: "Has Juluhou said anything particularly important to me?" Xiang Shaolong thought for a while, then said: "Juluhou seems to be very displeased with Li Yuan, and often asks me how to deal with him. Nothing else special." Queen Jing nodded in satisfaction, and changed the subject: "Does Zhao Ya come to pester you often? Isn't she beautiful? Why do you always treat her so indifferently?" Xiang Shaolong knew that she was asking about such private matters to test his loyalty, so he snorted and said, "I don't like women who are always in a hurry." Empress Jing smiled and said: "The Empress is very happy with your straightforward character, but if you want to ascend to the position of city guard, you must make a deal with Zhao Yaxu. This should be regarded as the first order of the Empress to you!" Xiang Shaolong pretended to be distressed, and said apologetically, "Please forgive Dong for being a rough person, it's really hard to intentionally deceive others. If Queen Jing ordered me to go to the battlefield to fight the enemy to the death, I would never frown at all. " This is called advancing with retreat. If he completely violated his usual style for the sake of the city guard, he would make this vicious and ruthless woman look down on him. Sure enough, Queen Jing didn't feel disobedient at all, and said with a charming smile: "I knew that Mr. Dong is not this kind of person. But sluts are more likely to attract men; this empress is not forcing Mr. to lie to her, but just wants you to be a little masculine to her. With a flirtatious nature, just treat her as a diva that comes to your door. Xiang Shaolong saw her flirtatious, his heart was swayed, and he deliberately teased her with a smile: "This is also reasonable, but I know my own family affairs, and any woman who is happy with me will find it difficult to leave me afterwards." Queen Jing stared at him fiercely, but Xuanze Huazhi laughed tremblingly, gave him a meaningful look and said: "Why do you men always like to boast about your ability to deal with women, how can you teach others?" Do you know who is the real one?" Xiang Shaolong really wanted to say that since he had doubts, why not give it a try, but in the end he didn't dare to say it, he laughed dumbly and said, "After hearing what Queen Jing said, I realized that other men also like to boast like this." Queen Jing's pretty face suddenly turned red, knowing that she had missed the point, didn't she tell the other party clearly that she had had hands with many men? Xiang Shaolong suddenly thought of Cheng Xu who was close to the water, this ungrateful boy, maybe he also took advantage of Queen Jing's relationship to skyrocket, but why Queen Jing didn't guarantee him to be the successor of the city guard, but chose himself instead?Then it suddenly dawned on her that if this ambitious woman had her followers both inside and outside the court, it would be easier to manipulate the political situation. For a while, the two were relatively silent, and the atmosphere was awkward. Queen Jing stood up, her face returned to her inviolable expression, and she said coldly: "I'm leaving! You must not tell anyone about this, otherwise the empress will never forgive you." Xiang Shaolong cursed in his heart, but on the surface of course he tried to flatter her, until he sent her out respectfully, he was relieved. When bidding farewell to Han Chuang, Han Chuang pretended to be an old friend and insisted on looking for Tian and him to go to the official brothel to take advantage of the excitement, so he let him go. ◇◇◇◇◇◇ Xiang Shaolong had nothing to do, so he went to find Ji Yanran early, and saw Tian Dan's motorcade marching into the Liu Mansion where Ji Yanran lived, and was so frightened that he turned around and left, first going back to the mansion. Sister Shanrou and Tian's sisters were not there, and after asking, she found out that Shanrou was going shopping, so she dragged her sister along. Wu Guo accompanied him to the door of the dormitory, and asked in a low voice, "Le Cheng's head has been transported to the ranch. The uncle asked the third master what to do with it." Xiang Shaolong said: "Brother, please figure it out! After a few days, when the wind is not so tight, I will send the traitor's head back to Xianyang to Lu Xiang, and then he will hand it over to Queen Ji. It is very important for them not to let it out. news, otherwise everyone will know that we killed Le Cheng." Wu Guo took the order and went. Xiang Shaolong went back to his room and fell asleep for two hours before rushing to Liu's residence, Shan Rou hadn't come back yet. At sunset, the city looks even more gloomy because the residents are afraid to go out if they have nothing to do. Xiang Shaolong was overwhelmed with emotion, and secretly thought that this was all caused by the foolish King Xiaocheng.But this is more likely to be an arrangement of fate, otherwise there is no hope that Xiao Pan, the future Qin Shihuang, will appear. well!This may be what Zou Yan called the destiny. When they arrived at Liu's Mansion, Ji Yanran was waiting for him, and asked someone to take him directly to the small building to meet him. Zou Yan was also there, and the three of them faced each other with some joy. Ji Yanran prepared a table of exquisite wine and dishes, and when the three of them sat down around, this pretty woman poured wine for the two of them herself, and after they drank a glass, she complained: "I haven't heard from you until today, it's too tiring to think about it." There are a few more gray hairs." Zou Yan laughed and said, "If your hair is really unbelievable, I will punish you on behalf of all the men in the world." The two clinked glasses and drank it all. After Xiang Shaolong apologized to Ji Yanran, he gave the beauty a wink. The latter understood and waved away the two servants who were serving. Xiang Shaolong lowered his voice and said: "You should know about the big event that happened in Handan last night!" Ji Yanran was slightly shocked and said: "You really did it. It's amazing. More than two hundred people died or were injured in an instant. Not only did it shake the whole city, but even Tian Dan and Li Yuan were horrified and paranoid." Zou Yan frowned and said, "However, this also exposed your Xingzang. When Tian Dan came to visit Yanran just now, when he mentioned this matter, he expressed suspicion that Xiang Shaolong did it." Xiang Shaolong was slightly stunned, knowing that even though he could fool King Xiaocheng and Zhao Mu, he would never be able to fool this generation of heroes. Fortunately, he still had Teng Yi's secret game, which was enough to confuse him, so he nodded and said: "He came to find Yanran." What else is there for?" Ji Yanran was concerned about his safety, so she didn't answer him, instead she said: "What should we do? What if he really suspects you?" Xiang Shaolong smiled and said: "Don't worry, everyone in Handan City is suspicious of each other now, King Xiaocheng and others suspect that Tian Dan and Zhao Mu have joined forces to do it, and I have a plan, which is enough to make the enemy exhausted and make them all soldiers." Zou Yan smiled and said: "All grass and trees are soldiers? This sentence is very appropriate for Handan. Yan Ran and I have also studied the murder of Le Cheng, and thought it was you who did it. Firstly, because you have too few people, secondly, we think you are not good at it. Before capturing Zhao Mu alive, he will come to such a blow to startle the snake." Ji Yanran was confused when she was concerned, and complained: "Shaolong! You are too reckless." Xiang Shaolong sighed and said, "I made this decision after much deliberation. I took advantage of the time when I was injured in a fierce battle, and no one would suspect me, so I took action." Then he said not to kill The reasons for the inability to enjoy the ride, and the consequences that follow. At the same time, he said: "If someone investigates afterwards, they will find that there were only a hundred people in my mansion at that time, and Long Shan, the number one subordinate, was not in the city. Who would believe that we have the ability to do such a thing. And the next morning, this group of people was left intact. Going out of the city and returning to the ranch, it is even more unexpected that they are the people who attacked Lecheng." Ji and Zou stared at him in disbelief.Who would believe that a hundred people can deal with two hundred people without losing a single soldier?It's just this point, even if he is as shrewd as Tian Dan, he shouldn't suspect them. Ji Yanran breathed a sigh of relief, and added more wine for him: "You are always able to do what others can't, which is amazing. Sigh! I don't see you for a day, and Yanran also feels sad!" Xiang Shaolong said apologetically, "But today I came to look for Yanran, but I wanted you to separate from me for a while, and go back to Xianyang first." Ji Yanran's slender hands trembled, she poured the wine on the table, her expression changed, "Why can't I agree to you, this matter was not discussed, and I won't listen to any reason." Xiang Shaolong looked at Zou Yan begging for help, and the great philosopher could only smile helplessly. After filling Zou Yan's wine glass, Ji Yanran smiled sweetly and said, "I can't help but be unreasonable once." Zou Yan helped, "Why does Shaolong want us to go to Xianyang first?" Ji Yanran picked up a chopstick of dishes and put them in Zou Yan's bowl, and said slightly annoyed: "No one is allowed to bring up this matter in the future." Xiang Shaolong surrendered and said, "Okay! I'll give up on that! Is the talented girl satisfied?" Ji Yanran glanced at him affectionately, her beautiful talking eyes seemed to say "Forget you!".Xiang Shaolong and Zou Yan could only look at each other and smile wryly. The latter said: "Handan is not a place to stay for a long time. What new plans do you have?" Xiang Shaolong said: "If you can really ascend to the position of city guard, many things can be solved easily, otherwise you have to trick Zhao Mu to go to the ranch and capture him back to Xianyang by force." Ji Yanran said: "Let's not talk about whether Zhao Mu has the guts to leave the city, even if he is willing to leave the city, without one or two thousand people guarding him, he will never step out of the city gate, and he will take every step of the way, so this is just a down-to-earth Of the policy." Xiang Shaolong snorted coldly: "Now I am racing against time. The problem is that Zhao people are waiting for the day when my non-existent relatives and livestock arrive in Handan. It seems that I must force Zhao Mu to rebel in a short time. If he changes If you are isolated and helpless, it is not just letting me eat and drink, the biggest problem now is still time." Both were troubled by him. Xiang Shaolong thought of Tian Dan, and asked again: "What is the purpose of Tian Dan's visit?" Ji Yanran blushed slightly and said, "What's the good thing, he formally extended an invitation to Yanran to be a guest in Qi." Xiang Shaolong secretly thought that Tian Dan was straightforward, and said, "How should Yanran answer him?" Ji Yanran said: "I told him to think about it for a few days, because I have to ask you before replying to him." Xiang Shaolong pondered for a while, and said: "Looks like only Mr. Longyang guessed the relationship between you and me. This situation is of great benefit to us. Although we still don't know who the person who attacked Mr. Longyang was, he indirectly helped us." A big favor, I got rid of the threat of Lord Longyang sending someone to monitor you." Ji Yanran said happily: "I don't care about it, I will definitely go to you tonight, because I have a lot of things on my mind and I want to talk to you!" Xiang Shaolong wondered, "What's on your mind? Can't you talk about it now?" Zou Yan smiled and said, "Do you want me to avoid it for a while?" Ji Yanranxia burned her jade cheeks, stomped Xiang Shaolong's foot several times, and said shyly, "Mr. Zou is also laughing at him." Suddenly, Xiang Shaolong realized that the so-called worry was just a grandiose word for Zou Yan, but in fact he couldn't hold back his spring thoughts, and wanted to come and have sex with him. Xiang Shaolong looked at the time and said with a smile, "Then Dong will wait for Miss Ji to drive tonight, oh! Do you know when Le Cheng's funeral will be held?" Both shook their heads. He pondered for a while, and asked about Li Yuan's situation. Ji Yanran said: "He comes to hang out with people every day, listen to his tone, this time he and Guo Zong have a very close relationship, it seems that Guo Zong's marriage to him is a foregone conclusion." After Xiang Shaolong sighed for the future fate of this lovely beauty Guo Xiuer, he took his leave and left. There are many things that are urgent and can't be rushed at the moment, the only thing to do is to see if the position of city guard will fall on him.
