"Is this the place with the best scenery near Jiangling City?" Xiao Jing looked at Li Xingchen and Shen Zunyi suspiciously. The two people standing in front of her had serious expressions. Only then did Xiao Jing understand that she heard correctly, "
Why do you ask this?"
"Just tell me, where did all this nonsense come from!" Another voice sounded. Xiao Shilian strode in and said coldly, casually slapping the sword on his waist on the table, "Let's ask
You already think highly of you, otherwise I would let him ask you!"
Li Xingchen shook his head helplessly. Obviously Xiao Shilian still remembered the grudge. The reason why Xiao Shilian was not with them before was because he went to several shops on the street to inquire about the old Jianghu there, but now it seems that the effect is not very good.
, otherwise he wouldn’t be so angry when he walked in.
Xiao Jing immediately shuddered. He was not a desperado. When a scholar encountered soldiers, he could not explain why. He could not guarantee whether this familiar-looking guy would come up and give him a knife.
After all, the most humble people in Jiangling City now are the royal relatives of Xiliang. Without him, Li Xingchen could still catch a lot of people from the prison if he changed hands.
Li Xingchen looked at Xiao Jing with a smile and made a gesture of invitation.
Xiao Jing did not refuse this time, and walked straight forward, pointed at the map and said: "In these years of war, many places of interest and historic sites in Jiangling have been burned by the flames of war. However, there are many that remain, including Zhang Hua outside the city.
You can visit the temple, but the one I like most should be Huarong Dao."
Li Xingchen raised his eyebrows: "Huarong Road?"
In his impression, the reason why Huarong Dao is famous is because Cao Cao was defeated and took Huarong Dao in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". In history, although Cao Cao also escaped from Wulin with his life, did he take Huarong Dao and were there any mistakes in the process?
It is unclear whether Guan Yu interpreted Cao Cao, and later historians have no conclusion on this.
In this way, Huarong Taoism is still very famous in this era.
Although Xiao Jing didn't know why Li Xingchen was surprised, she just thought that this reckless man had little knowledge, so she nodded and said: "Yes, Huarong Road connects Jiangling City and Wulin. It has high mountains, narrow roads and dense forests. It is most dangerous, but the scenery is amazing."
Jia, although it is a remnant of Jingshan Mountain, but I think that the most beautiful place I have walked through in Jingshan Mountain is Huarong Road."
After a pause, Xiao Jing pointed at the map: "What's more, if you go to Wulin through Huarong Road, the opposite side is Chibi, which was burned through by Zhou Lang in the fire. Therefore, although Huarong Road is narrow, there are many literati and poets coming and going.
But it’s not much at all. If you come to Jiangling and don’t take Huarong Road to Wulin to see it, it’s not in vain!”
Li Xingchen, Xiao Shilian and others looked at each other with solemn expressions.
They had heard about this Zhanghua Temple before. Although it is located at a high place, the surrounding area is wide. As long as people are deployed layer by layer, even if they want to hide their troops, they cannot hide them. But this Huarong Road is different. The mountains are high and the forests are dense.
The road is narrow and no one knows what the situation is.
If it were someone who was familiar with the surrounding area, I am afraid that even if Li Xingchen and others had made arrangements in advance, they might be able to find the omission.
More importantly, with Chen Shubao's keen "sense of smell", none of the scenic spots around Jiankang Prefecture were caught, not to mention Huarong Road, which is still somewhat famous in Jiangling?
"What should I do?" Xiao Shilian looked at Li Xingchen.
"Please invite Brother Xiao down first." Li Xingchen said lightly, "I'll take care of you and give Brother Xiao a new place to live."
Xiao Jing snorted: "It doesn't have to be like this. I dare you to let me come here just to ask this. I still think it's a big deal. I didn't expect that you, Li Xinchen, would also have a headache for flattery. It's really ironic."
"Presumptuous!" Xiao Shilian's eyes suddenly widened and he slapped the table hard.
And Shen Zunyi's face also darkened. The young man had a bit more temper, and his fists were clenched tightly. As long as Xiao Shilian made a move, he would definitely pounce on this guy and beat him up hard.
"Okay," Li Xingchen waved his hand, "Brother Xiao is still angry, Li Ping, please take care of me."
Although Li Ping also had anger on his face, he still nodded and stretched out his hand to tug Xiao Jing: "Prince Xiao, please come here."
Xiao Jing raised her head and followed Li Ping. Li Xingchen calmly focused his attention on the map again, his voice still calm: "Shizhong, Zunyi, why do you have to argue with the prisoners? They are just a group of toothless dogs. That’s all.”
Xiao Shilian and Shen Zunyi immediately looked at each other and smiled. That's right, if a dog bites you, you can't bite it back, right?
Although Li Xingchen's voice was dull, the volume was not low. Li Ping, who had already reached the door, couldn't help but burst into laughter. Xiao Jing stumbled and turned around suddenly: "Li Xingchen, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated!"
Li Xingchen glanced at him coldly: "You are not a scholar at all now."
Xiao Jing choked immediately. She struggled to say something, but finally gave up.
Li Xingchen looked at Xiao Jing's lonely back and felt no pity in his heart. In these troubled times, everyone has his or her own way of life. No matter what Li Xingchen does, it's not your turn to tell her what to do. More importantly, now The road you are walking on is better than the road you were walking on in confusion before!
What right does the loser have to bark at the winner?
Turning his head, Li Xingchen reached out and tapped the map as if nothing had happened: "In that case, let's decide on these two places first. There are no enemies around Jiangling who are eyeing them. We can respect His Highness the Crown Prince's hobbies, but we cannot condone them. .”
Xiao Shilian and Shen Zunyi looked at each other and nodded slightly. Li Xingchen's words sounded a bit presumptuous, as if Chen Shubao was the puppet they controlled, but they had to admit that this sentence was correct.
Everyone risked their lives to give Chen Shubao the opportunity to indulge, but this indulgence also had limits.
"Zhanghua Temple has deployed manpower in advance to ensure that nothing goes wrong." Li Xingchen said in a deep voice, "The only ones left are Huarong Dao and Wulin..."
"Wulin used to be an important ferry from the north to the south of the Yangtze River. Opposite the famous Red Cliff," Xiao Shilian said with a frown, "I heard Uncle Yu say before that nine years ago, Wu Sikong led his army to the west and crossed from here. Dajiang. However, after that battle, the Wulin Ferry was completely abandoned, and now I am afraid only the ruins are left."
"Regardless of the ruins, it is still open after all. As long as we occupy a high place, we can have a panoramic view of the entire ferry," Li Xingchen said with worry in his voice, "So when it comes to worry, I am still worried about Huarong Road."
Xiao Shilian was startled for a moment: "Shizhong, do you mean where those guys will start?"
