On the day the rain stopped, a carriage drove out of Hanzhong City. The carriage was simple and ordinary, with only one passenger sitting in it—he in a blue shirt.

He was secretly escorted by Xia Sheng, the wife of Yin Maolin, the soldier of Xishu, the Murong Clan, the master of Liuli Mountain, who was ranked among the top ten in the world in martial arts, and three hundred cobweb dead men secretly raised by Xiao Yanning.

No one in the Daliang Temple could have imagined that on this day, this person would leave Hanzhong and enter Tongchuan, which would shock the entire Daliang country in the future.

On the chessboard of Emperor Liang Xiao Yanlie, this person has long been a dead chess.

Rao Tu sat in front of the kitchen door, resting her cheeks in her hands, looking at the sky that was not clear. Over the years, she had learned to swallow tears in her stomach.

Xiao Yanning sat lazily on the lounge chair, with his hands behind his head, looking at the rain dripping from the eaves from time to time, he smiled lightly: "This Hanzhong city is really quiet..."

Rao Tu asked, "Is this bad? Why do you still need Tongchuan?"

"Tongchuan, the old capital of Xishu. It was originally mine, but it's been kept in someone else's place for too long."

"If you don't take your things yourself, you will make a fool of yourself."

Xiao Yanning glanced at her, "I said, as long as I want to, I will take Tongchuan within a month. No matter if there is Shen Zhu. Shen Zhu is going to Tongchuan, not to help me, but I sold him my favor. He also Thanks to me."

Rao Tu frowned slightly.

Xiao Yanning smiled and said, "Before, I didn't understand what Shen Zhu was asking for, but now I see it a little more clearly."

Rao Tu murmured: "With the fire of war, the people suffer the most. Even if you are the son of the old princess of Xishu, even if you have the blood of Xishu on your body, you don't put the lives of the people in your eyes. You are a reckless person. A lunatic, he will definitely use the simplest and toughest method to take Tongchuan. But Shen Zhu...he wants to save the people of Tongchuan."

Xiao Yanning smiled and sighed: "Mad?"

"You are not a careerist, you are just for the thrill of revenge." Rao Tu looked at the sky and said softly.

Xiao Yanning restrained the smile on his face, "Raotu, do you know why I wanted to save you in the first place?"

Rao Tu did not answer.

Xiao Yanning said to himself: "That day you cried heart-breakingly at the mass grave, and I knew at the time that you and I are the same people."

Rao Tu looked at him, "If one day you really take revenge, you won't necessarily be happy."

"But I can die."

Rao Tu was silent, in fact, she understood Xiao Yanning very well, "How many years do you have to live?"

"In any case, I will live to the day of revenge."

When he came back from school in May, he saw Xiao Yanning and gave him a bow, "Your Highness."

Xiao Yanning pointed at May and said with a smile: "He is in Hanzhong, and the luck of Daliang is in my hands."

A faint gloom flashed in May's eyes, which Rao Tu was keenly aware of. She pondered slightly, got up and said to Xiao Yanning, "Get out."

Xiao Yanning said "Huh?" and said in surprise, "Can't I just stay for a meal?"

"cannot!"

Xiao Yanning left angrily, and still muttered, "I've never seen such a bitch!"

Rao Tu closed the door with a bang, turned around and asked May, "What did Mr. Xuetang talk about today?"

May sullenly said, "The Book of Rites."

"What's going on here?"

"Auntie, May's mother is just a lowly palace maid. I have never met Emperor Daliang. Although he is my father, he has brought me endless disasters."

"You are a strong child. Although you don't say it, I know you are very bitter."

May shook his head and said, "My aunt treats me very well, and I am very content. But...but I don't want my destiny to be controlled by others."

Rao Tu held onto his shoulders, "Whatever you want, I'll let you, as long as you're happy."

May said in a low voice, "The value of my existence is that illusory luck. Auntie is the best person in the world, but... but there are too many variables in the future, after the collapse of the beam, how will Xiao Yanning treat me? If I kill him, will Da Liang's luck be really exhausted?"

Rao Tu was a little dazed, she suddenly realized that May has grown up, he is ten years old, and has his own ideas. "May, do you think being the emperor is tiring?"

May shook his head: "The emperor has the supreme power and can control other people's lives. If the world is doomed to fall, May will not be slaughtered, I will fight for rights, because I want to protect my aunt and Hengwen. Hengxiu."

Rao Tu's heart sank a little. For a long time, it was she who ignored May's thoughts. She always thought that he was still the thin child. But one day, the child also had a heavy heart. With the awareness of taking precautions for self-protection, there is a prejudice against imperial power and a kind of obsession that seems to be innate.

She patted May on the shoulder, "These things will be discussed later."

Heng Xiu stuck his head out from behind the door, "Mother, why don't you let me talk to Uncle Xiao?"

Rao Tu said, "Your Uncle Xiao is gone."

"Oh……"

May walked over and held Heng Xiu's little hand, "Don't you want to memorize poetry? Come, I'll tell you."

Heng Xiu is actually not very happy to memorize poetry. Yesterday was only stimulated by Hengwen, and she was angry and said that she wanted to memorize poetry, but she was the least willing to speak in front of brother May, so she had no choice but to work hard. He winked at Rao Tu.

Rao Tu smiled and deliberately asked, "What's wrong with your eyes?"

Looking at Hengxiu in May, Hengxiu immediately widened her eyes, shook her head and said, "It's nothing."

When Rao Tu saw the little girl being brought into the house by May, the smile on her face gradually faded and disappeared. She closed the shop and walked to a small desolate courtyard in the west of the city. The yard was overgrown with weeds and was barren. Rao Tu was knocking on the door, and the old Confucian scholar nicknamed "Ming Qi" walked out of the weeds and said with a smile, "Madam is here, it's a long way to welcome you."

Rao Tu blessed him and said softly, "Shen Zhu explained to me that Mr. Mingqi is a child of the young dragon and phoenix. If there is any difficulty, you can ask Mr.

Mingqi invited Rao into the courtyard, Rao walked through the grass, but saw a large tank on the stone steps covered with moss, with a few swimming fish swimming in the tank, and a huge backflow placed in the house. The incense burner, with cigarettes curling in the furnace, set off the small room elegantly and uniquely.

Rao Tu said warmly: "Sir, there is nothing like a cave here."

Ming Qi brought two chairs and said to Rao: "Madam, please take a seat."

Rao Tu sat down with him, Ming Qi smiled and said, "Let me guess Madam's purpose here, but I'm here to ask Master Shen Tongchuan and his party's fortune."

Rao Tu nodded and said, "This is one of them."

Ming Qi nodded and sighed: "Master Shen is a great sage. The situation in Tongchuan is clear, so madam don't need to worry. The external situation is not a threat to Master Shen."

"Outside?"

"The Tongchuan uprising was suppressed by the imperial court for the sake of foreign affairs."

"Then... what does the internal bureau mean?"

"Sir Shen's body is worrying, the more you think, the more you will be hurt."

Rao Tu said in a low voice, "Did he tell you how long it will last?"

"I don't know either, but Lord Shen is already making arrangements for the game in a year's time."

"One year...one year..." Rao Tu's hands trembled slightly, and her face became pale.

Ming Qi said: "The second thing Madam wants to ask, what is it?"

Rao Tu came back to her senses, "...It's...May."

Ming Qi sighed, "May, that child is not optimistic."

"What do you mean by not being optimistic?"

"I actually don't believe in luck, but if there really is luck, after King Yanning subverted the Daliang Temple, the luck of May would not be accepted. The knowledge is naturally excellent, but I see that there is an air of urgency in his writing, which is not a good state!"

Rao Tu frowned and said, "May is only ten years old."

Ming Qi shook his head and said, "This child has been displaced since he was a child, and he is extremely determined. I can see people all my life, and I can't be wrong."

"In the future, when the world is in chaos, who can pacify the country?"

"Whoever owns Sichuan and Sichuan owns the world."

Rao Tu's body trembled, "Chuanshu..."

Ming Qi was silent.

She was distraught. Heng Wenhengxiu is her own flesh and blood, and May is the child she raised. She must not allow several children to be killed in the future. She didn't want to be an emperor in May, and she never expected that Heng Wenhengxiu would have any great prospects.

A clear voice suddenly sounded outside the house: "Eldest Princess Xunyang, Daliang, please see layman Mingqi."

Rao Tu was startled, looked at Ming Qi, Ming Qi was also a little surprised, and whispered to Rao: "I'm sorry, Madam, please take a break."

Rao Tu got up and walked into the inner room. There was a ringing sound outside. Princess Xunyang said, "Mr. Mingqi learned to be rich in five cars, and now he lives in a remote place. It's really a talent."

Ming Qi didn't get up, just smiled slightly: "I have no moral education, I feel very satisfied to stay in Hanzhong as a small school teacher."

"I am under the order of the emperor's brother to ask the gentleman to follow me to Jinling City. The emperor's brother promised to make the gentleman a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, and if he was built by the former emperor, he would be the emperor's brother in the future. Is barren land and a tiger seeking skin? You are a sensible man, you should know that those who obey the sky will prosper, and those who go against the sky will perish."

Ming Qi picked up the old teapot and poured out a cup of clear tea. He said lightly: "The first emperor once said that in the civil and military affairs of the dynasty, only Shen Zhu can be proud. Can the current emperor Daliang have this kind of bearing?"

Princess Xunyang whispered: "Xunyang dare not promise, but Xunyang knows that the emperor likes loyal and talented people."

Ming Qi smiled and said, "If I remember correctly, the princess is Lord Shen's widow, don't you think that the emperor's handling of Shen Zhu was too tragic?"

Xun Yang's eyes changed slightly, he gritted his teeth and said: "Shen Zhu is to blame himself, a person like him, with such arrogance, never put me in his eyes. No matter how I put down my identity, he can't accept me, since I can't get it. , I won't let anyone else get it."

Ming Qi's hand holding up tea paused slightly, and said softly, "Shen Zhu fell into a floating dungeon back then, and the princess not only did not intercede for him, but asked Emperor Daliang to torture him in every possible way."

Princess Xunyang was silent for a long time before sneering twice, "Mr. Mingqi doesn't need to talk about him, but now I just ask you, do you want to go to Jinling?"

Ming Qi sighed: "Is it your own idea or Xiao Yanlie's suggestion to let me go to Jinling?"

"Nonsense, of course it is the secret order of the emperor!"

Ming Qi closed his eyes, "Daliang has a master, it's dangerous! It's dangerous!"

Xun Yang snorted coldly, "I already knew it was something that didn't know what to do, so I don't have to talk nonsense!" She waved her hand and said with a smile, "I'm killing a scholar who has no name and no point here, it's nothing. A bad thing, right?"

Behind her walked a white-faced and beardless person, who was a little girlish in his actions, and seemed to be the eunuch in the palace. She commanded slowly: "Cut off his head for me."

The eunuch stepped forward and stepped on the moss stone steps to make a footprint. The carp in the water tank jumped up, but Mr. Mingqi drank tea leisurely and remained motionless.

Rao Tu held down the rune dagger and went out to save people. But I heard a lazy voice laughing: "Sister Xunyang, you are still so naughty, how come you don't know how to be safe when you are married, come to your fifth brother to kill people?"

Xun Yang was startled, and turned to see Xiao Yanning who had appeared on the wall at an unknown time. A sneer appeared in her eyes, "Fifth brother, you are here at the right time."

"Why not?" Xiao Yanning smiled and landed in front of Princess Xunyang, "Xunyang, your mother and concubine is a very smart person, how come you are so stupid?"

mother-in-law? Xun Yang took a step back, her heart was filled with endless bitterness, she murmured: "I have to kill you, I have to kill you!"

Xiao Yanning grabbed her wrist and sneered: "Why, your mother-in-law is now a concubine, isn't Xiao Yanlie treating her bad?"

Xun Yang's eyes turned red, "It's okay, don't worry about it!"

Xiao Yanning let go of her hand and sighed: "It's really pitiful, how smart your mother and concubine was back then, and she set up a plan for the late emperor to execute my mother. I thought she could become the queen, it seems that sometimes smart people are not good. end."

Xun Yang pointed at Xiao Yanning and shouted, "Eunuch Wang, go and kill this man with wolf ambitions. I guarantee that you will be the biggest eunuch in the palace in the future!"

Wang Gonggong sneered, "The servants obey."

Flicking his robe, he rushed towards Xiao Yanning. Xiao Yanning smiled and did not move, and suddenly more than ten feathered arrows flew from all directions and shot at the back of the prince. Wang Gonggong waved his sleeves to fend off the feather arrow, and four masked men in black suddenly poured out from the dark, fighting with him.

Xiao Yanning stepped aside and said with a smile, "Don't kill me, I want to live.

Princess Xunyang was horrified, pointed at Xiao Yanning and said, "You...you lunatic..."

"A madman is better than being stupid like a pig. Do you know why Xiao Yanlie wants you to kill Ming Qi, because he has decided that after Ming Qi's death, I will not let you go, he wants you to be the dead chess player. , so that he has a reason to raise troops to attack me. Xun Yang, Xun Yang, you are so stupid, it's really better to die."

Xiao Yanning walked towards her step by step, she stepped back step by step, and finally fell to the ground, looking up at him with a grinning face, "What are you doing? I... I'm your sister anyway..."

"Oh? You still remembered it as my sister. Why didn't you remember when you asked this dead eunuch to kill me just now?" Xiao Yanning took out the long knife around her waist, patted her cheek, and immediately patted a flush of red on the cheek. print.

Princess Xunyang's eyes changed from panic to coldness, and she suddenly smiled lightly, "You kill me! I... I don't want to live for a long time. If it wasn't for my mother-in-law, I should have died with him. Back then The emperor wants to execute him immediately, I shouldn't... I shouldn't beg the emperor to put him in the floating dungeon."

Rao Tu in the house trembled.

Xiao Yanning said lightly, "Okay, then I will fulfill you!" He raised his long knife.

Rao Tu broke out of the house, "Wait!"

Xun Yang turned around blankly, and when she saw Rao Tu, her eyes flashed with resentment, "Bitch! So you are here too."

Rao Tu narrowed her eyes, took out the rune dagger and pressed it against her neck, and said coldly, "Why did Xiao Yanlie put him in the dungeon to suffer?"

Xun Yang snorted, "Born in the family of an emperor, it is my nature to be cool. There is nothing to say."

Rao Tu looked at the stubbornness in her eyes, and suddenly smiled, "So, you want to save him..."

Xun Yang argued: "You are talking nonsense! How could I save him, I wish I could tear him to pieces, he is the only one who dares to treat me like that, what am I inferior to Pei Qingwei, and what is inferior to you, a cheap servant girl? !"

Rao Tu sighed softly, "You told a lie."

A monk fell from outside the courtyard wall and said slowly, "Amitabha."

The monk's name is Xuanzong.

Xun Yang turned a blind eye to him, just muttered and cried, "No! No! I want him to die!"

Xuanzong said warmly: "Princess, have you forgotten that you once begged hard in front of the emperor, and you used to sleepless to save him."

Xun Yang shouted, "Shut up, you bald donkey! I was very happy to see him tortured to death back then. I whipped him to death for 300, how could I want to save him!"

Xuanzong said calmly: "Princess just doesn't dare to admit that even if the man you love doesn't love you, you are willing to give your life for him."

Xun Yang suddenly seemed to have exhausted all his strength and remained silent.

Rao Tu withdrew the rune dagger and said lightly, "Go away!"

Xun Yang raised his head and sneered: "Bitch, I don't need you to pity me! I...I am here in Sichuan, and I have no intention of living any longer!"

She snatched the dagger from Rao Tu and slammed it into her chest, causing a sudden change!

Rao Tu was shocked and looked at the dagger that was completely submerged in her chest, "You... what are you doing?"

A relieved smile appeared at the corner of Xun Yang's mouth. She looked at the sky and muttered: "Mother concubine, I... I'm dead... You can live well..."

Xiao Yanning took a few steps forward to stop the bleeding, and the monk Xuanzong suddenly said loudly, "Very good, very good!" He flicked his sleeves with both hands, as if he didn't move much, then pushed Xiao Yanning away gently, the whole person was like a breeze , And like the cigarettes in the Buddhist temple, it comes and goes freely, wrapping Princess Xunyang in it and leaving floating.

Xiao Yanning's face changed greatly, looking at the direction the monk was going, he said word by word, "Li Xuanzong, the living Buddha."

Rao Tu was going to chase, but Xiao Yanning waved his arm to stop him, his expression was solemn, "Can you chase Murong Yunheng, the master of Liuli Mountain?"

Rao Tu was startled, "Is this monk more powerful than Murong's?"

"The first person in Buddhism. Martial arts can be ranked among the top three in the world."

On the steep mountain road from Hanzhong to Tongchuan City, the monk held Princess Xunyang and ran wildly, and quickly caught up with a sedan. The monk blocked the road and put Princess Xunyang on the ground, "Amitabha, poor monk, please Mr. Shen takes in one person."

Shen Zhu raised the curtain and saw Princess Xunyang on the ground and the rune dagger on her chest. He stepped down from the sedan chair to support Xunyang, and saw that the blood from the wound had stopped.

Li Xuanzong said calmly: "Princess Xunyang begged for her own death, and it has nothing to do with Madam Xu. It's just that I believe that Lord Shen understands the princess's intentions. In fact, she is also a pitiful person no matter in the past or now. This injury did not damage the heart. Please give me a medicine from the master of Liuli Mountain, which can be cured."

Shen Zhu replied softly, "Dare to ask the master's name?"

"Li Xuanzong, a wandering monk."

Shen Zhu's face was expressionless, "I heard from the Master of Liuli Mountain that there is Li Xuanzong in Buddhism today, and there are really angry eyes of King Kong and low eyebrows of Bodhisattvas in the world. I don't know why Master got involved in the world?"

"The poor monk goes down the mountain and asks for a meditation."

Shen Zhu smiled slightly, "Lu Zhiming asked a question, and Li Xuanzong participated in a Zen meditation. The world is going to be in chaos, and the officials in official careers are still confused, but Buddhism and Taoism are both clear and bright."

"There is Shen Yanbing asking for a gift to Jinling City, who said that there is no one in the Confucian family." The Murong Mountain Master did not know when he appeared behind the carriage.

Li Xuanzong sighed: "It's a good greeting, yes, taking Tongchuan and controlling Sichuan and Shu is really like asking for a gift in Jinling City."

Shen Zhu looked at the mist-shrouded mountains, his voice was calm, "I don't know what Jinling City will give back."

Murong Yunheng shoved a Zhu Dan into Princess Xunyang's throat, probed the pulse at her neck, shook her head and said, "It's not a big problem."

Shen Zhu looked at Li Xuanzong, "Please also ask the master to send the princess back."

Li Xuanzong shook his head: "She is a dead end when she returns to Hanzhong, you know it."

Shen Zhu pondered slightly and looked at the Murong Clan: "Take it to Tongchuan first?"

Murong Yunheng smiled: "I have no opinion, I'm afraid your wife is suspicious."

In Hanzhong City, the prince who was captured by Xiao Yanning's subordinates screamed in the dungeon.

Rao Tu and Xiao Yanning were outside the cell, Rao Tu asked, "If you lost Princess Xunyang, how do you explain to Jinling City?"

Xiao Yanning smiled indifferently: "When did you see my plan to explain to Jinling City?"

A person ran over and said a few words in Xiao Yanning's ear, Xiao Yanning changed color slightly, waved his hand to retreat the servant, and smiled at Ratu: "Sir Shen knows that you are worried about me, and specially sent me a gift, let's go. , take a look!"

Seeing his treacherous smile, Rao Tu secretly wondered what Shen Zhu had brought, and followed him to the dungeon, only to see a well-dressed woman in the dungeon, but it was Princess Xunyang!

Rao Tu looked at her in disbelief, "You... how are you..."

The Princess Xunyang looked arrogant, ignored Rao Tu, and just looked at Xiao Yanning.

Xiao Yanning nodded to her and said with a smile, "It's very similar."

Rao Tu suddenly remembered the phantom of the dead man who had disguised her appearance in the Yin Valley, and she said in surprise, "It's the art of disguise."

Xiao Yanning smiled and said, "Sir Shen is really intimate."

Rao Tu was puzzled: "Is it sent by Shen Zhu? How did he know about Princess Xunyang, you told me?"

Xiao Yanning shrugged, "It's not me."

Rao Tu suddenly had a very bad premonition in her heart, Xiao Yanning patted her thigh and suddenly said: "I thought, it must be Li Xuanzong who sent Xun Yang to Shen Zhu, and Shen Zhu remembered his old feelings and rescued Xun Yang and took him with him. Tongchuan. No, I was worried that it would be difficult for me to deal with it, so I sent a fake one."

Rao Tu frowned deeply.

Xiao Yanning smiled on the side, "After all, my sister Xunyang is the princess wife that Mr. Shen is marrying. You know that Mr. Shen is promiscuous."
