Lu Yi likes to wear a green skirt and stand on the street. She is like a green leaf in winter. It is particularly eye-catching and cannot be seen by others. It is when the city gate is about to close, and there are many people leaving and entering the city.
Miss Lu Yi from Huiyifang is a very famous person, and there are not many men in Chengdu who don't know her.
Su Ren was riding a white horse, holding a whip in his hand. He was high up, and when he lowered his head, he could see through Lu Yi's collar. He was playing in a vacuum. On this cold day, it was not too cold to dress like this.
In order to prevent nosebleeds, Su Ren turned away hurriedly: "It's such a cold day, and the girl is wearing so little, so she's not afraid of getting cold."
Lu Yi noticed that Su Ren kept stealing glances at him. He lowered his head and quickly crossed his arms to his chest with a blush on his face. Being in Huiyifang for a long time, being eaten by others was not a big deal. He calmly said: "Su Shiyi
Since you know it’s cold, why don’t you dismount and find a warm place where we can have a good chat?”
"Okay, this is indeed not the place to talk. Girl, please move to my house. It's also close to your Huiyifang. You can chat as long as you want!"
Lu Yi smiled slightly: "That's fine!"
Su Ren got off the horse, held the horse's rein with one hand, and talked to Lu Yi while walking back. The road was not very far, and with such a beautiful woman accompanying him, the walk was very comfortable. Unconsciously, we arrived.
At home, Leng Yue was crawling at the door and looking out. She saw the green shadow at a glance, her face turned dark instantly, and she slammed the door and entered the house.
Liu Gao shook his head and sighed, then stepped forward to help Su Ren lead the horse.
Shu people do not have the habit of lighting stoves. The winter in Shu is not very cold, and the room is warmer than outside. The guests and the host sat down, Liu Gao took the tea served by the Su family and left respectfully. Leng Jun and Huo Jin
When he was about to leave, he was stopped by Su Ren: "Xiao Jinzi, go and invite Mr. Sima. Miss Luyi has something important to say. Mr. Sima is the most talented person in our family. It would be good for us to let him listen."
Huo Jin agreed and went out. Lu Yi smiled slightly: "Su Shipu is so cautious, is it possible that he is worried that I will eat you?"
"It's hard to say. Since ancient times, beauties have brought disaster. I believe this saying. Many heroes have been ruined in the hands of women. Although I am not a hero, I still feel worried when I stay with someone like Miss Lu Yi."
"Haha! Su Shifu really knows how to tell jokes."
When Sima Xiangru came in, he was not too surprised to see Lu Yi, and he saluted and sat in the guest seat.
Su Ren smiled: "Now, Miss Lu Yi can speak. No matter what you say, I am all ears."
Lu Yi stood up and bowed to everyone: "The little girl is a Bo person. She has been in Shu for several years. She knows something about you Han people. She went back to Bo land once under the orders of the prefect, hoping to bring my people back to the land.
I brought him back to Shuzhong, but unfortunately it backfired. Recently, I want to remind Su Shipu that the affairs of the Bo people are complicated. If he wants to complete the task of the prefect, Su Shipu must be prepared to face trouble."
"Oh? I didn't expect Miss Luyi to be in such a situation. Can you tell me what kind of trouble you have?"
"I'm afraid the mayor has already guessed it, so why say more!" Lu Yi smiled slightly: "Of course, in addition to those reasons, a more important reason is that the Bo people don't believe you Han people. For thousands of years, the Han people have targeted us.
People can only be slaughtered, and it will be difficult for us Bo people to be wary of them for a while."
Sima Xiangru sighed: "Since the Spring and Autumn Period, the Bo people have repeatedly rebelled. Chu and Qin have sent troops to conquer one after another. It is really a river of blood and it is unbearable to look back. It is a harm to both the Bo people and us Han people!
"
"Is that what I said? Without Brother Changqing, I wouldn't know these things! So what should we do this time, as a girl?"
"Nothing but trust! As long as the Bo people completely trust you, everything will be solved. If you want to get the Bo people to trust the market leader, Captain Tang Meng is the first difficulty."
Su Ren thought for a while: "I'm sincere! Don't worry, girl, I already have a way to deal with Tang Meng."
"Oh? Can the mayor tell the little girl?"
Su Ren shook his head: "No! In order to avoid leaking the news, even Mr. Sima doesn't know!"
Lu Yi sighed: "That's fine, since I'm such a young lady, I won't ask. I hope Su Shipu won't disappoint us Bo people."
"Don't worry, girl! May I ask you, girl, what do you think of your servant's death?"
"Hasn't the murderer been caught? In the morning, the prefect's Yamen has asked me to take back the boy's body. Is there any change?"
"What a big change! Don't you know who wants to kill your boy?"
Lu Yi shook his head: "The little girl abides by the laws in Han Dynasty and has no enmity with anyone. I believe that my little servant has prevented the disaster for Su Shi!"
"Does this count as blackmailing me?" Su Ren felt as if he had eaten a fly. He owed a favor for no reason and felt uncomfortable no matter how much he thought about it.
Lu Yi smiled slightly: "Whether it was a mistake or not, anyway, my servant died in front of the city governor, and it has something to do with the city governor. The city governor shouldn't deny this, right?"
"Okay! I'll be honest with you!"
The few people said nothing else, and they all could see that the purpose of this woman Lu Yi's coming this time was the last few words. He was using the death of the servant to trap Su Ren. This woman seemed determined to believe that,
It would be of great help to the Bo people if Su left here.
After sending Lu Yi away, Su Ren asked Sima Xiangru: "Brother Changqing, how much do you think this woman knows?"
Sima Xiangru smiled: "Even if she doesn't know everything, she at least knows the Nine Cities, and it's still the key. But this time she is determined to cooperate with Mr., and really wants to bring the Bo people into Shu."
"Do the Bo people really want to enter Shu?"
"The middle of Sichuan is a plain with fertile land, and Dujiangyan is used to control water, so there is a bumper harvest every year. The Bo people like farming and are hardworking. Unfortunately, the Bo land is mountainous and life is difficult. If we don't enter the middle of Sichuan, with the strength of my big man, I can't use it.
How long will it take for the Bo people to become extinct?"
"Is it that serious?"
"I'm afraid it's more serious than this!" A voice suddenly came from inside the house. Su Ren remembered clearly that there was no one in the house.
Huo Jin and Leng Jun quickly drew out their swords and ran into the house. As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw a flash of sword light and they were forced out. Jingji stood at the door with his sword in hand and stared at Su Ren: "You don't want to see my house.
Elder? My elder is here!"
Su Ren turned around and looked into the room. Right where he was sitting, there was an old man wearing a bamboo hat, with a long beard hanging down to his chest. His back was not hunched, his waist was not bent, and he was sitting on the Taishi chair with a golden sword.
. Holding a cane in his hand, he looked at the people outside the door with a smile.
"It's you?"
The old man chuckled: "Su Shiyi has a good memory. We only met each other once, but we recognized me at a glance. It's not easy!"
The sound of fighting in the front yard alarmed the whole family, and everyone rushed over with weapons in hand. The old man glanced at him and said, "I went to the appointment today. Is this how the mayor of Su treated his guests? I just saw that the mayor treated Lu Yi like this."
"
Su Ren stopped everyone and said with a smile: "It's really not easy for the old gentleman to enter my house quietly. I admire you. Can you let Brother Jingji put away his weapons and let's sit down and talk slowly?"
"Hahaha, what does your family mean? Even if it is Weiyang Palace, I can come in when I want and leave when I want. No one can stop me." He then said to the thorns: "Put away your weapons, we are here as guests tonight.
Don't be so nervous."
Jingji glanced at the people outside, returned the long sword to the sheath, and retreated to the old man's side. Su Ren patted Lengjun's hand and took his hand, and stepped into the room. The yard was tense. Gou Tianming had quietly strung the crossbow and found it.
In one place, aim the crossbow at the thorns standing behind the old man.
The old man nodded: "You have some courage, no wonder you dared to kill Duotong in Yelang!"
"Sir, I'm afraid I have misunderstood. Duotong was burned to death by fire from heaven, and it has nothing to do with me."
"You are so sweet-tongued. This is not good. If you kill me, you will kill me. Let's not talk about it today. Let's talk about the mayor. The mayor should know why I am here."
Su Ren looked troubled: "I'm afraid this is a bit troublesome. When my master was leaving, he repeatedly told me not to tell others about this matter. Why did the old gentleman have to know? To put it bluntly, my master is stingy. If he knew that Mr.
I'm forced to do this, and if I get angry when the time comes, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to my husband."
"Hahaha, I am eighty-seven years old this year, and I only have a few days to live. As long as I can return the country of Daqin to me, what's the harm in burying these old bones in Wenling?"
"Sir, must you know?"
"Must know!"
"Hey!" Su Ren sighed: "Well, since you must know, then don't blame me for not reminding you that my master is not in Wenling now, but in the far north, where there is daylight half the year and half the year
At night, the sky is surrounded by colorful clouds and is dazzling. I am lucky enough to have seen it once and will never forget it. According to my teacher, this is the real entrance to the Heavenly Palace."
"Oh?" The old man's eyes shone: "Are you serious about this?"
"At this time, is it still necessary to deceive Sir? If Sir wants to welcome your King Qin back, I'm afraid there is only one way to go."
The old man raised his head, tears streaming down his eyes, and he fell into deep longing: "Back then, His Majesty's dragon body did not decay for several months. It was rumored that the alchemist had found the elixir of immortality. What Su Shifu said today is definitely true.
, Your Majesty has become an immortal, I must welcome your Majesty back and let all the monsters and monsters in the world die!"
No one disturbed the old man and allowed him to talk nonsense. Su Ren watched the old man going crazy while drinking tea. Everyone outside the house could hear it clearly, and their eyes widened. Who didn't want to live forever? In the past, they always thought it was a rumor.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be true. This was the first time Leng Jun heard Su Ren say this. When he rescued Su Ren, he also had doubts when he saw Su Ren's weird dress. He didn't expect that there really is a fairyland. As a Taoist priest, he was even more...
eager.
"Ahem!" Su Ren coughed, interrupting the old man's reverie: "I would like to advise you again, although it is the entrance to the fairyland, it is also a hell for others. I'm afraid you won't be able to go there like this. Even people like Brother Jingji need to go there.
If you make more preparations and set out next spring, you may be able to come back alive."
"I've been going through fire and water for the sake of the Qin Dynasty. Why would I regret this old life? If I welcome His Majesty back one day, I can repay the merchant's great kindness!" He looked back at the thorns, got up and walked out. (To be continued)
