Chapter 109 The person who broke the halberd and sinks into the sand
At noon.
Yu Chiwan and Ning Jiu looked at the embarrassed Crown Prince in front of them with strange expressions.
Li Danqing's physical cultivation is strong, and his previous condition of bruised nose and swollen face has improved, but some abnormalities can still be seen.
"What is this, Dean?" Ning Jiu, who had just gotten up and finished washing, asked.
"Haha, I accidentally fell down just now..." Li Danqing said with a sly smile and averting his eyes.
Ning Jiu frowned, feeling a little confused.
It was a hard journey and we finally arrived at Wuyang City. Ning Jiu and Yuchi Wan had a good sleep yesterday.
It was almost noon when I woke up, and I was not aware of the "tragedy" that happened in the house.
After listening to Li Danqing's words, Ning Jiu secretly imagined a fall in her heart, with her face landing before her body. Thinking of this, Ning Jiu's body trembled, and she secretly felt that the picture was too wonderful.
However, Yu Chiwan reached out and patted Ning Jiu's shoulder, pointing to the angry people behind Li Danqing: "I think the dean fell into the pile of women, right?"
Li Danqing, whose lies were exposed, was a little confused. He smiled and said: "What time of the day it is, you guys are so sleepy. Please clean up quickly. The dean is going to take you to visit Wuyang today."
city!"
Wuyang City was the royal capital of the Wuyang Dynasty, and its prosperity naturally made it feel like the whole world of Wuyang.
Xia Xianyin, Qingzhu and others were born and raised in Wuyang, so they were not very interested in this, but the eyes of the others lit up when they heard this, and they were somewhat looking forward to it.
"Hmph! As soon as I came to Wuyang City, I owed more than 4,000 taels of foreign debt. How can the prince still want to have fun? Is it really true that the debt is too heavy to bear?" At this moment, Shi Ziju and Lu Shude also came from
Walking out to the side, the old violinist who had never dealt with Li Shizi snorted coldly and said mockingly.
Probably because of his old age, Shi Ziju's sleep has never been very good. He was awakened by the sound at the door of the house early this morning, and he knew everything that happened.
The fiery-tempered master Ziju originally wanted to teach him a lesson, but when he arrived in Wuyang City, he revealed his true colors and let down his disciples. However, he was dragged by Lu Shu and went to the study room nearby to play two games.
chess.
In two consecutive games, Shi Ziju, who lost no less than ten men in both games, became even more angry, so naturally he couldn't help but take his anger out on Prince Li.
"More than four thousand taels of silver!?" Ning Jiu's eyes suddenly widened when she heard this, which was exactly the same as the reaction of Liu Yanzhen and others when they heard about it.
But Prince Li, who had just experienced having no money to pay the wine bill, showed no trace of distress on his face. Instead, he said with a leisurely expression: "It's just four thousand taels of silver, Mr. Shi, don't make a fuss about it."
"There is a saying that my talents are destined to be useful, and they will come back even after all the money has been spent."
Li Danqing's tough-tongued look fell into Shi Ziju's eyes, and Shi Ziju became even more angry. He retorted, "Your Majesty, it's better to take a breather and stop boasting, so that we can save the debt collectors later."
Go to the door and start arguing with them."
Li Danqing laughed when he heard this and took out a brocade inlaid with gold thread from his arms.
Shi Ziju was stunned when he saw this. He thought the thing looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
"Master, someone came from the palace just now. He brought a copy of His Majesty's imperial edict and summoned the dean to the palace in the evening to entertain him. I guess he was going to reward Youyun for his merits." Jiang Yu was at this moment.
Said quietly.
This little girl has now completely turned her elbow to Li Danqing. Even though everyone was chasing Li Danqing for a while, she was not willing to take action. Instead, she kept fighting aside and even whispered for Li Danqing at this moment.
argued.
"The dean said that he has made great contributions and his majesty's reward will be indispensable. When the time comes, it will be more than enough to repay the debt of several thousand taels of silver."
"..." Shi Ziju was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Li Danqing, who had a smug expression on his face, and then at Jiang Yu, who was defending Li Danqing seriously, and suddenly felt angry.
At that time, he sighed deeply and fell silent.
…
Wuyang City is very big.
From the inside out, it is divided into the imperial city, inner city, outer city and attached counties.
The imperial city is naturally the residence of Emperor Wuyang - Shenyu Palace.
The inner city is close to the imperial palace, with the yamen of the three prefectures and nine divisions, as well as most of the residences of the royal family and nobles. It is the gathering place for a handful of the most powerful and wealthy people in Wuyang City and even in Wuyang world.
Of course, in order to cater to the dignitaries here, most of the luxurious restaurants and shops selling valuable items are gathered here. The most famous one is Zhuhua Street, which is known as the collection of treasures in the world.
Here, as long as you have money, there are few things you can't buy.
The outer city is much larger than the two, and most ordinary people live here. There are courtyards where the rich gather, but there are also markets where people and people are mixed.
You can see the young lady in brocade and grosgrain, with a jade on her body.
A pendant, or a hairpin on the head, is enough to buy half of the courtyard that ordinary people cherish. Of course, you can also see beggars who are half-clothed, sallow and skinny, begging everywhere.
From this place, you can have a panoramic view of all the world in Wuyang.
As for the attached counties outside the outer city, they are almost the same as those in the inner city, but most of them are garrisoned by military armor. They are derived from the long-term presence of the royal capital's imperial army. Most of the people are ordinary people. Of course, there are also some in the inner city sometimes.
The rich and powerful built courtyards in those areas, which were used as villas for leisure and entertainment, or as golden houses to hide their darlings.
"We finally came to Wuyang City. Why don't we go shopping in the inner city instead of coming to the outer city?" Walking on the streets of Anman Street, Liu Yanzhen looked at the lively buildings in front of him, but the surrounding buildings were somewhat old.
The streets are somewhat dissatisfied.
Wuyang City is the royal capital of Wuyang. Putting aside the residence of the emperor, the buildings in the inner city are enough to make people jaw-dropping.
The yamen of the nine divisions of the three prefectures include the Qiongyu Tower of Shenyu Si, which is tens of feet high; the Dilong Palace of Tiyusi, which is built underground and is like an underground palace; and the Taixue Pavilion, which is said to have a collection of millions of books.
Every area has a reputation that resounds throughout Wuyang. Compared with Anman Street, which is just a busy street, everyone obviously wants to see those rare things in the inner city.
"What's there to see in those places?" Prince Li waved his hand and said contemptuously.
"The adults of the three prefectures and nine divisions live in those high-rise buildings every day, and are used to overlooking the world. As time goes by, even they forget that they are human beings."
Li Danqing said this, looking sideways at the busy vendors and pedestrians around him, with a slight smile on his lips, and said: "I think, since we are human beings, we have to look at where people live, here
He is the real Wuyang City."
Shi Ziju, who was following everyone, raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Although he was a little reluctant, he had to admit: "This little bastard, sometimes two tusks can really pop out of the dog's mouth..."
Lu Shude, who was beside him, had long liked his old friend's duplicitous character. He brushed his beard and said with a smile: "The prince may appear to be a dandy, but there is a gap in his heart. The so-called person with a beautiful heart is not limited to the appearance, that's it."
reason."
Shi Ziju was somewhat unconvinced. When he heard this, he snorted and turned his head, but surprisingly did not refute.
But when Xia Xianyin, who was walking not far in front of them and knew Li Danqing's thoughts well, heard this, he looked back at the two old men behind him and rolled his eyes: "Don't think too much."
"Things in the inner city are too expensive. He is afraid that he won't be able to pay for meals in the inner city and will lose face."
"..."
"..."
The two old men suddenly fell silent.
…
Prince Li is naturally a well-known figure in Wuyang City.
Even after more than a year, when he came to the streets of Wuyang City again, countless people still recognized Prince Li.
Coupled with Youyun's legendary deeds of defeating hundreds of thousands of troops with almost no reinforcements, and the fact that he was leading a group of beautiful girls at the moment, the sum total of them made it inevitable for Li Shizi and his party to go wherever they went.
It attracted everyone's sideways glances.
Regarding Prince Li's return to power, everyone's mood was very different.
"I never thought that Li Danqing would really be able to return to Wuyang City. When he left, many people in Wuyang City brazenly said that he might have to stay in Yangshan for the rest of his life!"
"It was also his good luck that he encountered Youyun's invasion, which gave him a chance to make a comeback."
"You can't say that. I heard that the Youyun army was coming fiercely. Even the Qingyun army was defeated by them. Yingshui County was in panic at that time. This Li Danqing can defeat the Youyun people. No matter how you say it,
They can all be considered as meritorious service to the Wuyang Dynasty."
"Hmph! How much can you do if you are a barbarian? They pay tribute every year to our Majesty the Mengxun Court, and they treat our Majesty like a courtier. They have always regarded themselves as the King of Wuyang. I guess the invading Youyun Army are just some short-sighted people.
The bandits rebelled against the army, just under the banner of Youyun, otherwise with Li Danqing's ability, how can we expect him to defeat the strong with the weak?"
"Keep your voice down! How do you care how he defeated the Youyun people? At least His Majesty recognized it. He has been recalled to Wuyang City, so there is no reward based on merit. I heard that tonight in the palace
The banquet is prepared for this Li Danqing. Yesterday, the Shenhu Army was almost killed by this Li Danqing in Mangku. You don’t want your life, dare to talk about this in front of him."
"Yes, yes! I have also heard about this. My relative who works at Longxiang Mansion also told me that early this morning, people from the palace went to Longxiang Mansion and took away General Li's armor and Tiance's armor.
Taking out the divine general's seal at the same time, doesn't this make it clear that Li Danqing is going to inherit his father's legacy?"
Pedestrians on both sides were whispering, some were sighing, others were admiring, but most of them were still unhappy and thought Li Danqing was just a bastard who got lucky.
Liu Yanzhen and others listened secretly
An frowned, but Li Danqing had long been accustomed to these things, and his expression was calm.
"These bastards should have their mouths torn off." Song Tong'er said through gritted teeth.
"We should have let the Youyun people attack from the beginning. Let's see if these guys still have the heart to gossip." Liu Yanzhen said angrily.
Although the two of them were the most ruthless when they dealt with Li Danqing, they were also the most angry when faced with the criticism from others - after all, it was not their own people's turn to have such outsiders say anything.
Song Tong'er was quite restrained, but Liu Yan had a really hot temper, and in her world view, she never took a step back to see the world as bright as the sky.
The more Liu Yanzhen thought about it, the angrier he became. When he saw that the people around him were not restrained, he suddenly became furious. He reached out and pressed the handle of the black water knife in his hand, as if he was going to take action against the gossiping pedestrians around him.
Fortunately, Luo Anan, who was on the side, saw this and quickly reached out to stop her: "Speaking of truth, there is no need to be angry with them. The pure will become pure by itself, and the turbid will become turbid."
"Although this woman was born as a military general, she has a beautiful belly and a bit of bookishness. She is very different from ordinary women." Lu Shude, who was following the crowd, looked at Luo Anan with admiration and said, stroking his beard.
There is a lot of appreciation in the words.
The master Ziju beside him also nodded secretly when he heard this: "It is indeed much better than that Li Danqing, and it is not like those girls like Liu Yanzhen who like to yell, neither fight nor grab, but are quite assertive. Such girls are now indeed
Rare."
At this point, Shi Ziju turned to look at the disciple next to him, and said seriously and seriously: "You still want to get close to Luo An Anduo. You have a quiet temper. If you get married in the future, you will definitely be competitive.
However, Liu Yanzhen, Song Tong'er and others have been traveling around a lot with Luo An'an, and with her taking care of you in the future, you won't suffer any loss."
Jiang Yu, who was originally watching the excitement in Wuyang City with joy, heard his master's instructions. At first, he thought it was reasonable, nodded secretly, and was obedient. However, in the second half, he became too out of his mind, which made the already thin-skinned girl.
His face suddenly turned red.
"What did master say?" Jiang Yu said angrily.
"Young men should get married, and female students should get married. What's the big deal? Although I don't like this little bastard, I still can't see your thoughts." Shi Ziju said in a serious tone.
"I..." Jiang Yu didn't know how to refute for a while.
"Okay, I heard your master's advice on these things." Lu Shude also came over at this time, "We are old enough and can't do much else, but we still have the ability to recognize people."
"This Luo An'an has the same temperament as you. You two will definitely get along, but she is a little more fierce than you. In the future, you will not suffer any disadvantages if you get along with her and take care of each other, and you don't have to worry about her being clever and following her.
You are jealous..."
Although Jiang Yu felt extremely ashamed when he heard this, but thinking about it carefully, it was not unreasonable.
It's hard to say what his dean's other abilities are, but his ability to attract bees and butterflies is surprisingly strong. Even with Jiang Yu's quiet temperament, he does occasionally feel a sense of crisis.
Thinking of this, she blushed, nodded, and looked up at Luo An'an.
At this time, after Luo Anan calmed down the grumpy Liu Yanzhen, he stood there and hesitated for a while.
He looked at Li Danqing in front of him who was careless and didn't seem to take the rumors to heart, and then looked at the passers-by around him who were still pointing and whispering.
The girl frowned and remembered her experience in Li Danqing's Divine River - rumors may not be enough to defeat Li Danqing, but no one is willing or should accept such slander.
She wanted to stand with him, which was the promise she made to herself at that time.
Thinking of this, Luo An'an's heart sank, and she stepped forward. Under the astonished eyes of everyone, she reached out and took Li Danqing's hand.
Liu Yanzhen and Song Tong'er were stunned when they saw this - Luo An'an asked them not to teach those bastards a lesson and give it to Li Danqing, but he ran to hold Li Danqing's hand. This...
Song Tong'er suddenly became furious: "The intention is sinister!"
Liu Yanzhen glared angrily: "Bad woman!"
Qingzhu: "This... was beaten first again!"
Xia Xianyin narrowed his eyes: "Each one is more powerful than the other!"
Jiang Yu, however, looked confused. He looked at Luo Anan, who was holding Li Danqing's hand, and then at the two experts who had just given him instructions. He blinked, as if asking: "Is this what Master said?"
Don’t want to rob?”
The two old men, who were defeated again, could only talk about the left and right at this time.
"Ah! Old deer, these flowers look nice."
"Yes! Little Master! This flower is red with white inside, and white with green inside. At first glance, you are the king of flowers..."
A woman who was as wide as a bucket passing by not far away covered the wild flowers on her head. Her face was rosy, she glared at the two old men with a charming look, and cursed tenderly.
