Seeing her nervous look, Zu An couldn't help but hug her into his arms: "Haha, you really still care about me. You were so cold to me some time ago, which made my heart go cold."
Speaking of this, Bi Linglong felt itchy again: "Who told you to do that to me last time!"
"That's not because you are so beautiful." Zu An smiled and kissed her again.
Bi Linglong knew that he deliberately changed the subject by praising her, but she was still very happy, and she was soon ecstatic by the kiss.
After a while, she suddenly trembled and couldn't help but hit him with her pink fist a few times. This bastard really knew how to take advantage of the situation.
…
Not knowing how long it had been, Bi Linglong lazily pushed the man next to her: "It's almost dawn, you should go."
"Don't leave." Zu An muttered and buried his head in front of her.
"Stop making trouble, the ladies are getting up soon." Although Bi Linglong was also very reluctant to leave, she still maintained her rationality.
Zu An had no choice but to say goodbye to her: "I'm leaving for Yunzhong County today. I'm afraid I won't be able to see you for several months."
Bi Linglong's eyes were full of tenderness. While helping him tidy up his clothes, she warned: "Be careful along the way. It doesn't matter even if you can't find out the truth of the case. Ensuring your own safety is the first priority."
"Don't worry, the emperor has given me an imperial edict. If there is a crisis, I can call on his power to take action." Zu An comforted.
Hearing what he said, Bi Linglong breathed a sigh of relief. Of course she knew how powerful the emperor's imperial edict was, but she was a little surprised. Generally speaking, the emperor would only give the imperial edict to his trusted embroiderer, but he actually gave it to him. ?
But then I thought about it, the other party had shown enough ability in the secret realm of the academy before, and helped the prince pass the exam and won the emperor's trust. This makes sense.
Zu An looked down at her peach-blossom face with a smile on his face: "You sound very much like what a wife would say to her husband before he leaves."
Bi Linglong spat and hurriedly pushed him into the secret passage. Then she returned to the bed and lay down. Thinking of her identity, she couldn't help but sigh.
After a while, there was a movement outside. Rong Mo knocked on the door and whispered, "Mother, it's time to get up."
Bi Linglong subconsciously pulled the quilt to cover the hickey on her neck. Only then did she realize that the other party couldn't see her, so she said lazily: "I feel a little tired today. I need to sleep a little longer. Don't disturb me."
It was all because of that bastard, who had tormented him most of the night. At this time, his whole body felt like it was falling apart, and he couldn't remember anything.
After all, she is the master of the East Palace, and she does not need to work like the emperor, so she still has some freedom.
Rong Mo was a little surprised. You must know that the Crown Princess has been very diligent in these years. The Crown Prince does not care about anything. The Crown Princess handles the official documents in the East Palace, so she is extremely strict with herself. What happened today?
However, she didn't say much. It seems that the princess' longevity was damaged in the secret realm, and now her mental strength is not as good as before.
It's all because that bastard Zu An didn't protect the Crown Princess!
…
"Sneeze!" Zu An on the other side sneezed heavily, wondering which girl is missing me?
After he came out of the East Palace, he obviously didn't have much time to sleep. He ordered the troops in the palace and left the palace with a hundred Habayashi Lang.
Habayashi Lang is a member of the palace imperial army. Each one has undergone rigorous training, and each one has at least a fifth-grade cultivation level. They may not be able to compete with some martial arts masters alone, but they are proficient in formations and combined attacks. , against the same number of masters of the same level, it is basically a complete victory.
Even against some masters whose level far exceeds the fifth level, they still have the power to fight.
The number of people is enough. If you want to deal with Habayashi Lang with a hundred people, you have to send out several times the army, but this time they represent imperial envoys, which is tantamount to rebellion.
If the enemy intends to rebel, there is no difference between a hundred Habayashiro and a thousand Habayashiro.
It didn't take long before I met Sang Hong's people at the dock on the outskirts of the city. Although this world has developed spiritual practices and various rune formations have greatly improved transportation convenience, it is still far behind the technologically advanced airplanes and trains of the previous life.
After all, the rune formation method requires the consumption of Yuan Stone, which is too expensive. Generally, only a few people can afford it, and when there are more people, it cannot be used.
Therefore, just like previous generations in ancient times, it is definitely more convenient and less troublesome to travel by water.
The Suidan River stretches for thousands of miles from north to south, passing right through the capital.
The tributaries along the way were dug and expanded, forming a convenient water conservancy network. For a city as big as Beijing, the consumption of various bulk items such as grain, wood, ore is staggering, and most of them are transported by water.
The envoy team will go north along the Suidan River, and then disembark halfway and take the land route, heading west to Yunzhong County.
After all, the Suidan River does not pass through Yunzhong County.
This time Sang Hong was the imperial envoy, and some officials came to see him off on behalf of the court. Even the emperor sent eunuchs to read out the imperial edict to build momentum.
Zu An yawned. Fortunately, Sang Hong could handle all this, otherwise it would have annoyed him to death.
Suddenly he noticed a few familiar figures in the crowd, and couldn't help but be surprised and happy: "Why are you here?"
The two young men have impressive looks, and their styles are obviously different from those around them.
One of them has a square face and looks upright and serious, giving people a sense of reliability.
The other person is gloomy and handsome, and at first glance he looks like a young man with psychological problems.
The two people were clearly Gao Ying and Pei You.
Seeing him, Gao Ying's serious face also showed a smile: "Going to Yunzhong County this time is a golden opportunity in the eyes of major families. Many people are vying to come. We were chosen because of your glory. ah."
Pei You no longer looked like a cold and handsome guy, he lowered his voice and laughed: "I have heard for a long time that northern girls are tall and have long legs. I have always been fascinated by them. Now I finally have the opportunity to see them in person. How can I miss them?"
Zu An looked weird. This guy looked like a withdrawn young man in front of outsiders, but he was very coquettish in front of his acquaintances. There is a word to describe it. Yes, it was called Mensao. Many of his classmates in his previous life were This makes him feel particularly friendly.
"This trip to Yunzhong County may not be smooth sailing." Zu An couldn't say many things directly now, so he could only remind him vaguely.
Gao Ying replied: "Brother Zu, don't worry. We are not playboys either. We will not hold you back. Maybe we can even help."
Zu An thought the same thing. These two people were both sixth-grade peak masters, already the best at their age. What's more, they had the Liu family and the Pei family behind them, which were powerful assistance no matter how they looked at it.
"Brother-in-law!" At this time, a crisp young man came from not far away. A handsome young man was waving to Zu An.
Zu An smiled knowingly and hurriedly greeted him: "Youzhao, why are you here?"
Seeing Murong Qinghe on the side, he also smiled and nodded to her: "Hello Qinghe."
"Hello, Brother Zu." Murong Qinghe responded generously, but his attention quickly returned to Chu Youzhao, thinking that Brother Chu was so handsome that no other man could compare to him.
Gao Ying secretly poked Pei You: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are being compared to others."
"Miss Chu attracted the admiration of many princes and grandsons when she came to the capital. With such a stunningly beautiful sister, how can she be a bad younger brother?" Pei You didn't take it seriously. "Not to mention a manly man. Since when did face win?"
Gao Ying had a sour look on his face, thinking that if you are handsome, of course you don't have to worry about it. We ordinary-looking people have a lot of troubles.
However, he is also an open-minded person and recovers from negative emotions quickly.
On the other side, Chu Youzhao's eyes were like crescent moons: "Brother-in-law is going on a long journey, so of course I have to come to see him off. Now, these are the thick clothes I prepared for you. It's cold in the north, so you should wear more clothes; these are from Desheng Building. Pastries, if you get hungry on the way; these are..."
Watching her stuffing herself with various things, Zu An felt warm in his heart. It felt good to be cared about.
"Thank you, but this doesn't suit your temperament?" However, Zu An quickly realized something was wrong. Although Chu Youzhao is a woman, she was raised as a boy since she was a child. She is very carefree. How can she be so careful? .
Chu Youzhao looked a little unnatural, but finally told the truth: "Qinghe helped me prepare many things, such as the size of your clothes..."
Murong Qinghe's face turned red: "I'm just helping Brother Chu."
Zu An couldn't help but be a little surprised. Murong Qinghe, a little girl, didn't expect to have such a careful side. It seemed that girls were girls after all. In comparison, Chu Youzhao was just a fool.
"Anyway, thank you. When I come back from Yunzhong County, I will bring you some fun things there." As soon as he said these words, Zu An wanted to slap himself twice. It felt like planting a flag. Bah, bah, bah, Tong Children's words are unbridled.
"Okay!" Chu Youzhao looked excited, but Murong Qinghe didn't care. She was happy when Brother Chu was happy.
On the other hand, Gao Ying was a little confused: "Didn't the old man of the Murong family lose his official position because of the brothers? It seems that the eldest daughter of the Murong family has a good relationship with the brothers."
"Brother's charm is extraordinary. Even the courtesan in the capital like Miss Nanxun favors him, not to mention a little girl from the Murong family." Pei You was filled with envy when talking about this matter. At that time, they were Witnesses at the scene felt that the impact was too strong.
"I think Murong Qinghe is also quite beautiful. Although she is a little darker, she is obviously a beauty. In a few years, she may not be worse than Nan Xun." Gao Ying stroked his chin and commented.
When is it easiest for men to get closer?
Of course when talking about women.
The two had experienced life and death together in the secret realm before, and had gone to Red Sleeves to recruit each other several times together. Now they are really close buddies. The two would never talk like this in front of others, but there is no need to talk to each other in private. He maintained his usual appearance in front of him.
"Huh?" Pei You touched his arm and looked cold, "I didn't expect you to be such a person."
Gao Ying was startled at first, and then got angry: "Asshole, you know that's not what I meant. What I like is the kind with big breasts and a perky butt. We have gone to Red Sleeves together several times. Don't you know my preference yet? !”
Pei You reminded him: "Keep your voice down, your reputation will be completely ruined if someone hears it."
Gao Ying looked around and saw someone calling, and couldn't help but blush.
At this moment, Pei You suddenly whistled: "Hey, is there a beauty?"
"Where?" Gao Ying also followed his gaze and saw Pingting, a woman in a green skirt coming from a distance. She wore her hair in the most dignified and beautiful bun. She had a gentle and gentle temperament all over her body.
Abdominal poetry and gas from China!
For some reason, this sentence came to both of them at the same time.
The other party's appearance was nothing more than that. Although it was very beautiful, the young masters from aristocratic families like them were used to seeing beautiful women in the capital. The main reason was the lingering and bookish aura of the other party, which was really refreshing to both of them.
"Such a woman is suitable to marry and take home as a good wife." Pei You couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes." Gao Ying had the same feeling. Although the women in the brothel were charming and coquettish and happy on weekdays, compared with this woman, they instantly felt boring.
"I don't know which lady she is from." The two of them saw that although the other party's clothes were not luxurious, their quality was extraordinary. Coupled with this special temperament, she was definitely not a peasant girl.
"Why does it feel familiar to me? Have you seen it somewhere before?" Gao Ying asked doubtfully.
"I thought I was the only one who felt this way!" Pei You was a little surprised. "Hey, he came this way. Could it be that he was attracted by my extraordinary temperament today?"
After finishing speaking, he deliberately straightened his waist and quietly adjusted his uniform.
Today he was officially on an official mission, and he looked more upright than usual.
Gao Ying thought to himself that this guy looked like a dog. He knew that this woman could not come to find him, but he refused to admit defeat: "Just brag, if they really want to find her, they will come to find my ancestors."
Pei You raised his eyebrows and was about to say something harsh, but his eyes widened in the next scene, because the woman indeed walked straight towards Zu An.
"Brother Zu," the gentle woman called Zu An gently.
"Daoyun, why are you here?" Zu An was surprised and happy. The person who came was naturally Xie Daoyun.
Chu Youzhao on the side frowned. He didn't see the fellow villager's joy at all, but felt a sense of crisis.
"Brother Zu is going to travel far, so he asked the teacher for half a day's leave to come and see you off. Originally, my younger brother was also coming, but now that he has reached a critical stage in his cultivation, his teacher will not allow him to leave, so I apologize to you on his behalf. I hope Brother Zu, don't be offended." Xie Daoyun's voice was like rainwater dripping into a lake, making people feel a sense of peace involuntarily.
"How could I blame him? Of course cultivation is more important." Zu An replied.
"By the way, now that winter has arrived and it's bitterly cold in the north, my little sister specially..." As she spoke, she put her hand into the storage bag, and suddenly her eyes fell on the clothes on the side, her expression slightly frozen.
At this time, Chu Youzhao on the side shouted: "Oh, my sister has prepared a lot of winter clothes for my brother-in-law. Could it be that Miss Xie has also prepared clothes?"
Murong Qinghe beside her had a strange expression, thinking that Brother Chu said this deliberately. Could it be that he thought that Miss Xie and his brother-in-law might have something?
Oops, it's just like the house fight between two aunts and three aunts at home. It's really boring.
But Brother Chu is doing it for his sister, well, that’s understandable.
"Of course not," Xie Daoyun quickly recovered, changed the direction of his hand in the storage bag, and took out another thing instead, "It is bitterly cold in the north, and the people of Yunzhong County are even more sturdy. This talisman belt It’s also an extra layer of insurance on your body.”
Zu An recognized the talisman in her hand as the first glimmer of life talisman at a glance, and couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Thank you so much, sister Daoyun. Last time in the secret realm, I saved a life thanks to this talisman. Now that I have it, I feel better." Feeling at ease.”
After hearing that what she was giving was life-saving things, Chu Youzhao's hostility towards her instantly decreased. On the contrary, the more he looked at her, the more he liked her.
Xie Daoyun was a little apologetic: "It's a pity that the conditions for making this talisman are very harsh. With my current level of cultivation, I can only successfully make one in this time. Otherwise, it would be nice to draw a few more for Brother Zu."
"Sister Daoyun, don't blame yourself. I am also a practitioner. Naturally, I know how precious something like this that almost gives someone another life is. How can it be so easy to make? I can't thank you enough for getting one." , I don’t even know how to repay you." Zu An originally wanted to flirt with her and promise her, but in front of other people, he was worried about being rude to the other party.
Xie Daoyun smiled slightly: "Brother Zu, you are serious. I like the poems and music scores you gave me last time."
Chu Youzhao on the side was furious when he heard this. Brother-in-law secretly sent love poems to other women?
They haven’t even sent me any poems!
The anger value from Chu Youzhao is +288+288+288...
Zu An was startled, wondering why this little girl was so crazy.
At this moment, Xie Daoyun said softly: "I have been out for a long time. I have to go back to practice. Brother Zu, take care of me all the way."
There were too many people on the pier, and she was not used to being in public like this.
"Sister Daoyun, please take care of me too. Don't exhaust yourself from practicing." Zu An waved goodbye.
Xie Daoyun's face turned red, and he nodded slightly to him before drifting away.
"You've come this far, and you're still looking at it." Chu Youzhao muttered sourly.
Zu An was about to answer when a wisp of fragrant wind suddenly came from beside him, and a soft and charming voice rang out: "That just now seems to be the daughter of City Lord Xie. I met an old friend in a foreign country, but it's a pity that we didn't have a chance to chat."
Gao Ying and Pei You, who were staring at each other from a distance, had their eyes widened: "Why are there two more beauties?"
"That seems to be someone from the Sang family." Gao Ying remembered that the two girls seemed to have come from Sang Hong's side just now.
"There have always been rumors in the capital that the daughter-in-law of the Sang family is very beautiful. Because she became a widow just after she passed away, she has attracted countless prodigal children in the capital to climb the walls and take a peek. When I saw her today, she turned out to be even more beautiful than the rumors said." Pei You couldn't help but He praised that with his harsh eyes, it would be difficult to find fault with Zheng Dan.
She has both the amorous feelings of a brothel girl and the dignity of a good family girl. It is really unexpected that someone can perfectly mix these two completely different temperaments.
Finally, thinking of the other person's life experience, he couldn't help but sigh: "It is really a pity to be widowed at such a young age."
"I advise you not to have any ideas about her." Gao Ying said in a low voice.
"I'm just sighing for beautiful things," Pei You hurriedly defended, but couldn't help but ask, "Why?"
"Didn't you notice that her face was so radiant and gorgeous? There was no trace of the misery of a widowed person? What's more, I heard that she and her ancestral brothers were escorted to Beijing together, and they even rode in the same car. The carriage..." Gao Ying gave him a knowing look.
"You mean?" Pei You was surprised.
"The way you look at her, she stares at Brother Zu with a smile on her face when she talks." Gao Ying cooed in that direction.
Pei You looked intently and saw that Zheng Dan's eyes were smiling when he spoke, and most of the time he was looking at Zu An: "That's true, huh? Why is it that Miss Sang looks at him the same way?"
Even Gao Ying was shocked. He looked carefully, and sure enough, he noticed that although Sang Qian hid half of her body behind Zheng Dan, she often looked at Zu An from time to time. There was something in her eyes.
"Miss Sang is also a great beauty." Pei You sighed. Unlike Zheng Dan, Sang Qian is a completely different kind of beauty.
If Zheng Dan represents the charming young woman, then Sang Qian represents the young girl. The reason why the two of them discussed Zheng Dan more before was mainly because there were many disputes in front of the widow.
His expression became strange: "You said that my brother-in-law is criticizing the two sisters and sister-in-law...!"
Even Gao Ying, who has always been upright, couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Zu is really a role model for our generation. I must seek more advice from him on the next journey."
Of course, the two of them didn't think that Zu An had any substantial relationship with them, but it was shocking enough to win the hearts of two women.
However, the protagonist they envied now was in the Shura field at the moment. Chu Youzhao quietly pinched the flesh of his waist and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law has quite a lot of sisters!"
Zu An's head was extremely heavy. Fortunately, at this time, Sang Hong's doubtful voice came from the distance: "Hey, where is the gold medal master, why hasn't he arrived yet?"

Are you a little taller today?
