Although Wanyan Honglie asked Xiang Nan to go as an envoy to the Southern Song Dynasty, he did not just leave. He had to go through careful preparations. After all, as an imperial envoy of a great country, you have your own etiquette and rules.
Xiang Nan took advantage of this gap and first went to Yunlai Inn to find Guo Jing, and then went to Gaosheng Inn to meet Yang Tiexin.
"Brother Guo, my father will be very happy to see you." He said with a smile.
"Yes, I am also very happy to know that Uncle Yang is still alive." Guo Jing nodded, "If my mother knew, she would definitely be even happier."
"Definitely." Xiang Nan asked, "Is Auntie still in Mongolia now? Why doesn't she enter the customs with you?"
"My mother is still in Mongolia now. She... this... that..." Guo Jing suddenly looked shy and hesitated.
It turned out that the reason why his mother Li Ping did not enter the customs was that he was already the Mongolian Golden Sword Prince Consort and was engaged to Hua Zheng, the daughter of Genghis Khan.
He entered the pass this time to compete in martial arts, to assassinate Wanyan Honglie, and to seek Duan Tiande to avenge his father. After finishing the three things, he will return to Mongolia to get married. At that time, we may even settle down in Mongolia.
In this way, Li Ping naturally does not have to enter the customs and can just stay in Mongolia and wait for him to return home.
But unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the customs, he met Huang Rong. Although they didn't spend much time together, they already cherished each other.
He likes to be with Huang Rong, so naturally he doesn't want anyone to know that he has a fiancée in the desert.
…
Seeing that he was hesitating and speechless, Xiang Nan couldn't help but be startled, and then he understood.
Although Guo Jing is often said to be stupid and dull, in fact he is truly wise and foolish, and even his ability to flirt with girls is much better than others.
He was clearly engaged to Hua Zheng, but he never made it clear to Huang Rong. It was not until he won the engagement on Taohua Island and healed in the secret room of Niujia Village that he could no longer hide it, so he revealed it.
Moreover, when he met Tuo Lei for the first time in Baoying County, he introduced Huang Rong as his adopted sister in Mongolian. Lies can be told so smoothly, it is really not something that a stupid or dull person can do.
However, Xiang Nan couldn't bear to expose this. Seeing that Guo Jing was still hemming and hawing, he quickly pointed forward and said with a smile, "Brother Guo, look, the Gaosheng Inn is ahead."
"Okay." Guo Jing nodded, "Then let's go faster."
…
Arriving at Gaosheng Inn, Xiang Nan knocked on the door.
Mu Nianci came out immediately and blushed again when she saw Xiang Nan.
"How did you sleep last night, sister?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile, and then took out a silver hairpin from his sleeve, "I was walking through the market just now and saw that this silver hairpin was unique in style and matched your face shape, so I bought it without permission. I’m giving it to you, I hope the girl won’t dislike it~”
When Mu Nianci heard this, her heart suddenly felt like a deer.
"I'll put it on my sister~" Xiang Nan said, putting it on her head lightly, "Well, my sister is beautiful~"
Mu Nianci was shy and happy, and said softly, "Come in quickly, dad is waiting for you."
Xiang Nan nodded and pulled Guo Jing into the room, "Dad, do you think I brought him here?"
"He is..." Yang Tiexin was shocked when he saw Guo Jing, feeling that he was somewhat similar to his adopted brother Guo Xiaotian.
"Yes, dad, he is Guo Jing, Uncle Guo's son." Xiang Nan smiled, "Brother Guo, this is my dad."
"Uncle Yang, my nephew Guo Jing kowtows to you." Guo Jing was sincere and kowtowed immediately.
"Oh my God, my God, it's really you!" Yang Tiexin was so excited that he immediately stepped forward to help him, holding Guo Jing's hand tightly, with tears streaming down his face.
Guo Jing couldn't help but wet his eyes when he saw him being so emotional.
…
Yang Tiexin immediately took Guo Jing's hand and talked to him about his experiences over the years.
Yang Tiexin was happy to learn that his sister-in-law was in good health and that he had also practiced martial arts.
While they were busy reminiscing about old times, Xiang Nan quietly held Mu Nianci's hand.
Mu Nianci was startled and wanted to withdraw her hand, but Xiang Nan's strength was far beyond her reach.
Moreover, after her hand was held by Xiang Nan, her whole body went limp, and she had no choice but to rely on Xiang Nan.
…
After lunch, Xiang Nan saw that Yang Tiexin and Guo Jing were still chatting enthusiastically, and he was afraid that they would have to talk all night, so he said to them, "Dad, you and Brother Guo will chat first, while Nianci and I go shopping on the street. "
"Go, go." Yang Tiexin nodded and smiled.
His son and his adopted daughter fell in love at first sight and admired each other. He was also happy to see it happen, so how could he stand in the way.
Xiang Nan immediately left the inn with Mu Nianci, and first took her to the west wall of Prince Zhao's Mansion, "Nianci, stay here, I have a treasure for you."
"What is it?" Mu Nianci asked curiously.
"You'll find out later." Xiang Nan smiled mysteriously, then returned to the house. A moment later, he jumped out of the wall carrying a bamboo basket.
"Come on, let's find a secluded place." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"What's in the basket?" Mu Nianci asked doubtfully.
"A treasure worth a thousand dollars." Xiang Nan said with a smile, and then found a dilapidated house. After taking Mu Nianci inside, he opened the cover of the bamboo basket.
As soon as the lid of the basket was opened, there was a snoring sound, and a big snake as red as blood sprang out of the bamboo basket and rushed towards Xiang Nan's face.
Mu Nianci immediately screamed, her face turned pale, her hands were weak and her feet were numb.
But Xiang Nan didn't panic, pinched it with both hands, and used a dragon claw hand to catch it tightly.
They saw that this snake was as thick as the mouth of a bowl, its body was red, its fangs were like knives, and its long, forked tongue was spitting out extremely spicy medicinal gas.
It twisted its body wildly, trying to escape Xiang Nan's control.
But Xiang Nan's strength is more than a thousand pounds. No matter how it twists, it still can't escape his iron hands.
After restraining it, Xiang Nan immediately said to Mu Nianci, "Sister, why are you still standing there, come here and suck the blood."
"Suck blood?!" Mu Nianci was shocked.
"Yes, this is a precious snake. It has been fed with secret medicine and has been raised for twenty years. Taking its blood can strengthen the body and greatly increase the strength." Xiang Nan explained, "Come quickly, don't miss it. Good opportunity.”
"..." Mu Nianci shook her head and firmly refused.
This snake was so terrifying that she was scared just by looking at it, let alone drinking the snake's blood.
"It can also keep your appearance and keep you young." Xiang Nan saw this and said again, "Come on, after drinking it, you will no longer be afraid of growing old."
When Mu Nianci heard this, she was really moved, "Brother Kang, can you really stay young and immortal after taking snake blood?"
Xiang Nan smiled slightly when he saw this. You know that youthfulness is fatally attractive to women.
"Really, I lied to you that I was a puppy." Xiang Nan nodded.
Seeing what he said, Mu Nianci finally became cruel, took out a dagger from her arms, made a cut on the snake's neck, then put her mouth up and started sucking.
"Brother Kang, it tastes terrible." After taking a sip, she frowned and said.
This snake blood is mixed with the smell of medicine. It tastes bitter and fishy in the mouth, and tastes extremely unpleasant.
"Just think of it as taking medicine. Good medicine is bitter and good for the disease. Keep drinking it." Xiang Nan told her.
Mu Nianci had no choice but to grit his teeth and endure it, and continued to suck. But after drinking less than half of it, her stomach became full and she couldn't drink any more.
