Chapter 8: The Magpie (I)

Among all the fellow disciples who came to feed him, the one who stayed the longest time each time was Chang Wanying. She almost never went anywhere else whenever she had time, and as soon as she came to the back mountain, she could have the effect of clearing the scene, which made other fellow disciples immediately find various excuses to say goodbye.

Ning Yanzhang was thin-skinned and felt quite guilty about this, but Chang Wanying disagreed. Seeing that the boy was full of apology every time, he couldn't help but scold him in a low voice: "They all treat you as your junior brother, and they will leave five points of strength before taking action. How can they teach you well? If you want to give it a trick, of course I have to do this. At least I can do it ruthlessly. If you dare to be lazy, you will be able to get beaten up!"

"This, is this your strength?" Ning Yanzhang was so amused and crying, but he had no place to make sense. He was far better than a girl in terms of body shape and strength. However, he was far behind in terms of flexibility in advance and retreat and skillful moves. He was not a desperate attempt to practice. Some ruthless moves that both lose and lose can't be used at all. Whoever has a flexible movement or skillful moves will naturally gain an absolute advantage.

"Why, don't accept it, right? If you don't accept it, start to compete. When will you win a move and half a stance, I will disappear from your eyes immediately!" Seeing that he always treats his kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, the girl glared at her apricot's eyes and frowned and questioned.

"Pretty, patience, the junior sister is very skilled in martial arts. Ning can get your guidance, which is a blessing from the previous life!" Ning Yanzhang was respectful and afraid of the girl, so he quickly lowered his eyelids to apologize.

In the spring sunshine, Chang Wanying's skin was as bright as jade. It made him dare not look at it too much, but his eyes were often uncontrollable. Therefore, he could lower his eyelids and speak so that he could control the desire in his heart as much as possible. Otherwise, he would really not know when he would be out of control.

However, Chang Wanying refused to let him go, forcing him to fight with him for three matches. Every time he used a branch to make him run away in panic, he could not wait to find medicine to wipe his swollen arms and forehead, and explained apologetically: "Don't blame me for being too serious, I'm also trying to save you. The letter to my father and the King of Han has been sent out for several days. There has been no reply yet. To be honest, if it weren't for escaping to someone else's territory, the same result would have been the same. I would have taken you to escape, and I wouldn't have been delayed until now!"

"Actually, it would be better if you ask your master to hand me over earlier! Haven't you also inferred that no matter whether I am the second prince or not, the King of Han would not have been able to kill me openly in the near future. After dragging on for a while, you and Master can think of other ways, which is better than being forced to do with him!" Ning Yanzhang made a very frank suggestion after hearing him speak seriously.

The same result was the same when escaping to other people's territory. This is the biggest problem he is facing at the moment. It is almost unsolvable. As long as the throne of the Central Plains is not settled for a day, the second prince Shi Yanbao can still play the role of "using the emperor to command the princes". The princes in all sides may have the same virtue as Liu Zhiyuan. Even if he can find that many parts of him are incompatible with the royal bloodline, he would rather pretend to be confused and dress him up as the second prince and then take control of his own hands.

However, Chang Wanying scoffed at his suggestion. "You don't know Liu Bo... and don't know that Liu Zhiyuan. If you never appear in front of him, he will not remember you easily. And once you are sent to him, the first thing he thinks about will definitely be forever. Then there are naturally a group of advisers below to give him advice, first drain your useful value in the shortest time, and then find a thousand ways to make you die just right."

"Then I can't implicate you!" Ning Yanzhang was anxious when he heard this, and shouted in a low voice with a blue face.

Chang Wanying smiled and shook her head stubbornly, "It's not a problem at the moment. Master is holding Liu Zhiyuan's life-saving prescription in his hand. My grandfather is also somewhat handsome in Liu Zhiyuan. So even if he caught him and got his personal stolen goods, our master and apprentice will only be left behind. But you, I'm afraid it will be difficult to be as free as today!"

"Then, then..." Ning Yanzhang certainly didn't believe that the consequences would be so relaxed, but for a moment, he couldn't find any more reasons to convince the other party, so he could only stare at the wide open and breathe heavily. When Chang Wanying saw it, she picked up the branch and smiled and invited her, "Don't think about it, you can't think of it. Leave the matter outside to my senior sister, just practice literature and martial arts well. Come on, have you had enough rest? After you have enough rest, let's fight again. Let me see if your fight just now is in vain!"

As he spoke, he used the branches as his sword and made tricks. Ning Yanzhang could not stand still and get beaten, so he had to pick up the spear made of the trunk and stand up to fight.

The two fought from the middle of the sun to the sunset, and they were temporarily on standby. The next day, there was a new opportunity and continued to "fight to death". As such, the days passed day by day, Ning Yanzhang's ability increased day by day. There was also good news outside that the Changfu family generals came up the mountain, allowing Chang Wanying's forehead to stretch and her smile to relax day by day.

"The famous doctor in the Han Palace has tested the medicine sent by the second lady in the name of the Taoist priest, and is regarded as a life-saving pill!"

"The King of Han officially established himself as emperor and his country was named Dahan. From now on, officials from all over the country were prohibited from plundering money for the Khitans, otherwise they would be severely punished."

"The King of Han issued a general amnesty edict, and any local civil and military officials who voluntarily drove out Khitan officials and led their troops to surrender, the past actions of surrendering the enemy will not be investigated, and the official positions will remain the same!"

"The King of Han issued an edict to personally lead a large army of 400,000 to attack Bianliang. Khitans, regardless of military and civilians, must voluntarily retreat to Yanyun prefectures before the army arrives, otherwise they will be killed and will not forgive me!"

"King of Han..."

Liu Zhiyuan was appointed as emperor, and the importance of Shi Yanbao, the puppet, was greatly reduced. As the war was about to go to war, he probably didn't have much time to think about how to deal with the second prince. So as long as he dragged through the past ten days and dragged the army to leave, the chances of "Shi Yanbao"'s life will increase greatly. In the future, Liu Zhiyuan will have less and less time to remember him.

No matter which minister Liu Zhiyuan handed over the affairs of the second prince to execute before going to the expedition, with the power of the Chang family and the influence of the Taoist sect in the north, "Shi Yanbao" may not have the chance to fake death and escape after surviving the first three or five years.

As the hope grows bigger, Chang Wanying's mood is certainly getting better and better. Unconsciously, the time to "beat" Ning Yanzhang is shortened. Correspondingly, the time to urge the latter to read and read has also increased exponentially.

As he was "painful" and happy, Ning Yanzhang gradually got used to the existence of a pretty figure around him. If Chang Wanying came late one day, he would be a little unsteady. He knew that something was wrong with him, and even if he cleared the suspicion of the "second prince" in the future, there would be no possibility between him and the other party. However, every time he made up his mind to draw a clear line with the other party, and when his eyes met Chang Wanying's eyes, he instantly lost all his courage.

On this day, the two of them had just finished practicing martial arts and studied the Book of Songs. They were reading "Life and death are in harmony, and they are talking to you. Hold your hand and grow old with you...", and when they felt that these few sentences should not appear in the war song, suddenly a large group of birds passed by like clouds above their heads.

"The wind is a bit strong today!" Ning Yanzhang snatched the ground with one hand, holding the spear and jumped up quickly, and now he quickly looked towards the direction where the birds were flying.

I saw a dark figure running quickly under the hillside. Everyone was holding swords and guns, and the bright blades shining on the sun made the cold.
