Chapter 135 Chapter Twelve

Passing through the corridor and coming to the outer hall, Qin Qing's slender and graceful body is standing by the window, staring at the garden outside, thoughtfully. Xiang Shaolong couldn't help coming behind her, and said softly: "What is Mrs. Qin thinking about?" Qin Qing should have known that he would pass by this place, did not show the slightest surprise, and did not turn around, said indifferently: "Master Xiang, would you like to know?" It's just this sentence, it can be seen that she is very ruthless towards Xiang Shaolong, because the meaning of the words has surpassed the boundaries of ordinary conversations between men and women.Especially for a person like her who has always rejected the opposite sex, the situation is even more unusual.

Xiang Shaolong was taken aback, but he couldn't let it back down, and he really liked being close to her in his heart, so he said bravely, "Hey! If I'm not interested, I won't ask." Qin Qing turned her delicate body around quickly, and Xiang Shaolong's icy pretty face was within reach of Xiang Shaolong's hands, with a sharp look in her beautiful eyes, and she said calmly: "Qin Qing is thinking, when Master Xiang knows Qin Qing is here, will he Will you take a detour?" Xiang Shaolong couldn't stand it immediately, and said with a dry smile: "Teacher is too caring, eh! Have you seen Yanran and the others?"

The staunch and persistent beauty refused an inch and said: "Don't talk about him, Qin Qing hates the treacherous people who harm the master and deceive the emperor the most; the second is you who are self-righteous and use protecting women as a cover for yourself The younger generation is actually a man who treats us women like nothing, am I wrong about you?" Xiang Shaolong had already experienced how powerful she was, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that in Taifu Qin's heart, the younger brother is not much better than Lu Buwei. Alas! I apologized a long time ago, but I just said something wrong about asking Taifu to accompany Mrs. Huayang in Bashu Come on! Are you still refusing to let the villain go?"

Qin Qing was in front of Xiang Shaolong, I don't know if it was the beginning of that trip to develop the habit of conditioned reflex, she couldn't help laughing, her pretty face persisted for less than a few blinks, Yurong thawed, "Puchi" Laughing, he gave him a hard look and said, "Yes! I'm not convinced, no matter how much you apologize, you won't be able to make up for it." It was the first time that Xiang Shaolong encountered her willing to flirt, his heart felt hot, and he was about to speak when footsteps came.Knowing that it was the prince Chu, the two hurriedly separated.

Xiang Shaolong hastily saluted and bid farewell, but Qin Qing's demeanor that seemed to be acting like a baby to his lover just now has been deeply engraved in his heart and cannot be erased. ◇◇◇◇◇◇ Supported by the Eighteen Iron Guards, Xiang Shaolong rode up the imperial road leading to the outer palace gate. It happened that Lord Changping was dispatching a battalion of guards who were in charge of guarding the palace gate. He cut him aside and said in a low voice: "Yan Nu is really brilliant!" Xiang Shaolong had no choice but to answer vaguely. Mr. Changping was young and good, and asked: "Miss Lu Xiang is really beautiful, and unexpectedly she is good at swordsmanship. When I wake up to this day, I still have her waist of a water snake flashing in my head. Hey! What is the relationship between her and you?" ? Did you use false tricks to test your reaction?"

Xiang Shaolong had a warm feeling, just like the chats with his teammates in the 21st century, which were always inseparable from the topics of women, fighting and scolding the officer, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid this is called a big tree attracting the wind!" Jun Changping smiled and said: "Well said, your newly invented words are very suitable for Mr. Xiang. So after my naughty girl knew that we were familiar with you, she pestered us to capture you back Let her have a look." Xiang Shaolong felt a big headache and said, "Can we talk about this later? You should know how busy I am recently."

Mr. Changping smiled and said: "You can't escape her clutches anyway, just let her show some prestige, as a way of showing face to our two poor brothers. Otherwise, she will definitely teach you how to look good when you are hunting." Xiang Shaolong asked in surprise, "Does she also participate in field hunting?" Lord Changping said: "That is her big day, when the women's army led by her will come out empty-handed, Ying Feiyan will leave, I don't know how majestic it will be." Xiang Shaolong said in astonishment: "Women's Army!" Lord Changping sighed: "That's the team of delicate girls like Shemei in Xianyang City. They usually go to compete with people who are good at swordsmanship. Even Wang Jian is scared by them. I think this kid slipped away to defend the northern border. , mainly for this reason. If you hadn’t been hiding in the pasture all day, I’m afraid you would have suffered as well.”

Only then did Xiang Shaolong understand a little bit, and when he couldn't help but laugh, Lord Changping said: "Guxi, this little devil is going to guard the East Gate tomorrow, my two brothers are close friends with him, and we have decided to have a farewell party for him tonight, so you can come too! By the way! Play Ying Ying a bit more perfunctory." Firstly, Xiang Shaolong had a good impression of Mr. Chang Ping, a military dignitary who had no airs at all and was of similar age, and secondly, he was supposed to see An Guxi off, so he agreed with a smile.Only then did Mr. Changping happily let him go.

Back at the Duqiwei Station, he was intercepted by Jing Jun, pulled aside and said, "There are three things! Ah!" Then he yawned. Xiang Shaolong stared at him and said, "Have you been busy all night?" Jing Jun said as if nothing had happened: "I followed Zu Sange's orders, spent half the night to comfort her, and the second half of the night to treat her kindly, of course my eyes are a little sleepy." Xiang Shaolong was furious over it, and there was nothing he could do about it, so he said bluntly, "Quickly tell me! What are the three things?"

Jing Jun said seriously: "The first thing is that the three sisters-in-law want you to go to the Qin Mansion to accompany them to have lunch if you have time. Xiang Baoer also misses you very much, I think it's best for you to go there tonight Sleep with them." Xiang Shaolong glared at him and said, "Xiaojun, why are you so talkative today?" Jing Jun pretended to be modest and said: "How dare Xiaojun, it's just that I see my third brother smiling a lot these days, so I can't help but want to see more." At the end, his eyes turned red and he lowered his head.

Xiang Shaolong deeply felt the deep brotherhood between the two, he put his arms around his shoulders, hesitant to speak. It may be because the death of King Zhuang Xiang fully aroused his fighting spirit, so the serious trauma caused by the tragic death of Zhao Qian's daughters was also forgotten.After all, that was a year ago. Jing Jun said: "The other two things are that Lord Longyang is waiting for you in the lobby and Tian Dan sent someone to ask you to meet him at his hotel if there is something urgent." Xiang Shaolong felt a lump in his heart, why did Tian Dan want to see him?With his supernatural powers, he should have heard the rumors that he and Lu Buwei were at odds.If he wants to maintain a good relationship with Lu Buwei, he should avoid him. Thinking of this, my heart couldn't help shaking violently a few times. ◇◇◇◇◇◇ After sitting down with Mr. Longyang in a small side hall similar to a lounge, Mr. Longyang congratulated: "Congratulations, brother Xiang, for taking up the position of commander of all cavalry that everyone envies." Then he said with a gloomy expression: "Just thinking that one day I might face you on the battlefield with Shaolong, I feel heartbroken. Why are there so many helpless things in life?" Xiang Shaolong said sincerely: "Don't worry! I will try my best to avoid that kind of situation. In this era of separatist regimes, even fathers and sons and brothers can go to war. Please be more careful, Your Majesty." Jun Long Yang said with full of emotion: "Recalling that when we first met in Daliang, we were incompatible, but now Shaolong has become the most daring friend of my family. Thinking about leaving tomorrow, there may be a day when we will never see each other again , it is difficult to solve the depression, and there are thousands of emotions, and there is no way to dispel them." Xiang Shaolong was stunned and said, "Your Majesty, don't you leave after hunting?" Murderous intent flashed in Long Yangjun's eyes, and he said disdainfully: "Lv Buwei is now clearly linking up with Qi Chu to deal with our San Jin. Staying a few more days is just a bit more staring, I am not so stupid." Xiang Shaolong knew that this was the truth, and he was even more unwilling to lie to him.Thinking of Zheng Guo's construction of the canal, he said: "Your Majesty, don't worry so much for the time being. In ten or eight years, Qin State will not be able to invade eastward on a large scale. As long as you can continue the strategy of cooperating, you should be safe and sound during this period. There is a small loss in the territory!" There was a sharp light in Long Yangjun's eyes, and he said, "Why does Shaolong say such a thing?" Xiang Shaolong sighed, and couldn't help but tell about Zheng Guo's construction of the canal. Lord Longyang was moved and said: "Shaolong is willing to tell this day's big secret to my family, and my family will definitely keep it secret, even the king will keep it from it, to show my gratitude to Shaolong." Xuan said suddenly: "No wonder Han Chuang is so proud of himself , When I was so worried that I didn't think about eating and drinking, he went to spend time and wine, play songs every night, and never let go of love. It can make Lu Buwei lose face." Xiang Shaolong smiled wryly, "I don't want the people of Qin to hit Daliang so quickly either!" Lord Longyang thought for a while, and said: "There is one thing that I didn't intend to tell you, but I feel ashamed to see Shaolong so confiding in my family." Then he gritted his teeth and said: "That bitch Han Jing is completely innocent. Regardless of the general situation, I don't have to keep a secret for her." Xiang Shaolong asked in surprise, "What's the matter?" Lord Longyang said in a deep voice: "You have seen that Pang Nuan. This son is Han Jing's face and confidant. He is very knowledgeable in tactics and eloquence. This time he came to Qin, he really has bad intentions. Recently he frequently Contacting Gaoling Junying, you can guess that it will not be a good thing!" Lord Gaoling is Zixi who took the throne from King Zhuang Xiang. He has always refused to accept this matter. It is inevitable that he intends to rebel, but he did not expect to collude with the Zhao people. Xiang Shaolong realized that after Longyang Jun knew about the conspiracy of the Koreans, he let go of Qin's worries about a large-scale attack, and at the same time he hated Zhao Guo's Queen Mother Han Jing, so he shot her in the back.If Pang Nuan falls into Xianyang, Han Jing will be the one who will suffer the most. Politics is so intricate and dark.There is an open struggle, and there is a secret fight.Each show their ingenuity, until the end, I don't know who will win. Although this law does not have full effect on Xiang Shaolong who can predict the future, the outcome of his personal struggle is still confusing and unpredictable, for example, he does not know whether he will be defeated by Lu Buwei. After Xiang Shaolong thought for a while, he said, "Tian Dan wants to see me, does your lord know the reason?" Lord Longyang said in astonishment: "Is there such a thing? According to my opinion, there should be a secret agreement between Tian Dan and Lu Buwei. This is mutual deception, but it is beneficial to both parties in a short period of time, so the two are now inseparable. It is really puzzling that he wants to see you." Xiang Shaolong knew he couldn't find out what happened elsewhere, he said goodbye and sent him out of the guard, then brought him with the Eighteen Iron Guards to see Tian Dan. ◇◇◇◇◇◇ The hotel is heavily guarded. Danchu greeted him at the main entrance with a solemn expression, only speaking politely. When he was introduced to the inner hall where Tian Dan was, the outstanding statesman of the Qi Kingdom was playing the guqin intently. The sound of "Xianweng" was like gurgling water, filling the entire hall. The pair of Liu brothers who were inseparable from him stared at Xiang Shaolong covetously.Dan Chu took two steps back, but did not leave. Xiang Shaolong knew it was wrong, but no matter how bold Ren Tiandan was, he would never dare to plot against him in Xianyang.However, if Tian Dan was ordered by Lu Buwei and really wanted to kill him, he and the Eighteen Iron Guards would never think that any of them could leave alive. Tian Dan suddenly stopped halfway, and laughed loudly: "Don't come here without any harm, Ma Chi." Then he stood up and turned around, and a pair of sharp eyes like eagles shot at him like arrows. Xiang Shaolong already knew that he could not lie to him, but he also knew that he was not sure, so he lied to him. No matter how close Lu Buwei is to him, the former should not be so stupid as to tell him this secret, because this was planned by Lu Buwei, Tian Dan was so tired that the plot failed, and he lost his army and lost his general, and slipped back to Qi State in embarrassment. Pretending to be stunned, he said, "I'm sorry if you don't understand Tian Xiang's words." Tian Dan came over confidently, and when he got closer, he said, "Unexpectedly, Xiang Shaolong, who is so famous all over the world, would not have the guts to admit what he has done. Although you can hide it from others, how can you hide it from me, Tian Dan?" Then An inscrutable and profound smile escaped from the corner of his mouth, and he waved his right hand and said, "Let me show you something wonderful." Dan Chu came to the side of the two by order, took out a scroll of silk painting from his arms, and unfolded it.The Liu brothers came to both sides of Tian Dan at the same time and put on a posture of guarding against Xiang Shaolong's surprise attack. The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Xiang Shaolong looked at the silk painting, his hands and feet were cold at once, and if he fell into the ice abyss, his whole body shook violently. On the silk painting is the face of Shanrou, which is seven or eight points similar, but the eyes are a little strange, giving people a feeling of weakness, which is completely different from her usual strength. Tian Dan sneered and said, "Needless to say, Brother Xiang should also know who this woman is. She dared to assassinate Tian and was captured by me. I heard that she was once the wife of Dong Ma's idiot. Will Brother Xiang still say that he doesn't know?" What about this?" Xiang Shaolong felt that he was absolutely at a disadvantage, but he felt something was wrong, he just remembered that Shanrou had fallen into the enemy's hands, and his heart was already in a state of confusion, and his brain could not function effectively. Tian Dan said indifferently: "It's just a woman, it doesn't matter if Tian sends her back to Brother Xiang, as long as Brother Xiang is willing to do something for Tian, ​​this woman can return to Brother Xiang's arms immediately." A flash of light flashed in Xiang Shaolong's mind, and he suddenly grasped the key point of the problem, and an irresistible sadness surged in his heart.He guessed that Shanrou committed suicide because of the failed assassination, so the painter could not vividly express the eyes of a pair of dead people. Flames of hatred shot out from Xiang Shaolong's eyes, and he yelled wildly: "Needless to say, if Tian Dan can return to Qi State alive, I, Xiang Shaolong, will write these three words backwards from now on." Under the dumbfounded gaze of Tian Dan and the others, Xiang Shaolong was filled with grief and indignation, and left without hesitation.Now he finally had the best reason to kill Tian Dan.
