Chapter 245 Those Stories of Early Summer (1)
Within a few days, the conversation at the Huxin Pavilion spread, and the world was in an uproar. Yan Kingdom suffered heavy losses. It did not participate in the black domain competition for ten years. A princess, this time, Xia Guo's tough attitude shocked the whole world.
The turmoil about Gu Qingci has been one after another, and it is almost numb to people. Of course, after this incident spread, the people of Great Xia were even more proud, because this is the attitude of Xia, and it is also the attitude of all of them. From everyone's point of view, the victory of the Xia Kingdom this time was straightforward, the princess was deposed, the son-in-law was also deposed, and there were various compensations. This was a victory in state-to-state negotiations.
Of course, the rivers and lakes during this time were also very unsettled. The master of Linyuan Dongtian went to the Gu God Sect once, and it is said that when he left, he carried the head of a great practitioner from the Gu God Sect to Qixiufang. It didn’t take long , Another news came out that Linyuan Dongtian left several sects one after another.
Finally, when the reason came out, many people understood that Linyuan Dongtian also gave Gu Qingci a lot of compensation in exchange for Chang'an, where Xiao Yuhe left safely. Finally, it was also reported that Linyuan Dongtian Sword Tomb was opened half a year later. Gu Qingci also got a quota.
This news, to the people of Jianghu, is more sensational than the abandoned princess of Yan State, because the sword mound in Linyuan Dongtian has always been a holy place for martial arts in Jianghu, no worse than the Sutra Pavilion in Daguangming Temple. The sword mound is a sharp weapon of the gods, and a lot of martial arts insights are the foundation of Linyuan Dongtian for hundreds of thousands of years. It is opened every thirty years, and each time there are only a few places.
Entering the Sword Tomb means that no matter how unlucky you are, you can get a rare weapon in the world, and if you are lucky, you may even get the insight of a master. The name of the Sword Tomb is actually the senior of Linyuan Dongtian A place for high-ranking people to sit down.
...
In the evening, Chang'an City is like a river flowing straight down, and the thick clouds of fire are gradually disappearing. The majestic city that has stood for thousands of years is like a giant guarding the most prosperous and proud city in the world. A group of people and horses slowly come out of the city. , a little desolate, but also a little lonely.
This is the Yan State Mission. In that carriage, Meng Qi and Xiao Yuhe were relatively silent. After a long while, Meng Qi spoke slowly, crying, "Husband, can we never see each other again?"
Xiao Yuhe was very desolate, looking at the only flaming red left in the sky, he said: "The royal family has given up on you, we were able to leave Chang'an alive because of Linyuandongtian, the sect has made a big concession this time, I have to accept Follow the rules."
Meng Qi smiled bleakly, with a look of helplessness on her pale face, she had nothing to say, only complaining, he was not complaining about Gu Qingci, nor the royal family of Yan Kingdom, but herself, who wholeheartedly served the royal family of Yan Kingdom She thought about it, but in the end, it was her second-place husband who shielded her from the wind and rain.
Meng Qi lay in Xiao Yuhe's arms, and said softly: "Husband, I was wrong, I..."
Xiao Yuhe hugged Meng Qi tightly, sighed, and interrupted: "Don't talk about the past, I know a lot of things."
In the carriage, there was only a little tenderness left, and there were silent sighs, even a slight sob.
In the other carriage, Gu Qiao sighed softly: "Idiot men complain about women, but, I hope Yu He can become a blockbuster after this experience."
...
On the city wall of Chang'an, there were two people in white Confucian shirts quietly staring at the Yan State mission that was gradually going away, standing against the wind, one old and one young.
Mr. Wu Que smiled slightly and said, "Why, are you not convinced?"
Gu Qingci nodded and said: "Yeah, I do feel a little bit aggrieved. I was almost killed by someone, but I could only watch them leave. If it weren't for you and Daxia to support me, I might not want to do it now." Hiding in Tibet."
Mr. Wu Que patted Gu Qingci on the shoulder and said: "I know that although you are serious, you are not willing to cause a war between Xia Guo and Yan Guo because of you alone. In fact, you don't have to think about it so much. Whether it’s me or Emperor Xia, we all support you.”
Gu Qingci shook his head and said: "It's different, Linyuan Dongtian and Yan Guo have already made great sacrifices. These sacrifices are not for Gu Qingci's face, but for you and Daxia's face. If I really If you insist on killing Xiao Yuhe and Meng Qi, Yan Guo will start a war for face, and Linyuan Dongtian will fight us to the death, and the price will be too high."
Mr. Wu Que smiled slightly and said, "Then what do you think?"
"Within ten years, I will go to Yan Country and Linyuan Cave!"
...
"It seems that Yan's soldiers have retreated."
Wu Yu slowly lit an oil lamp, looked out the window into the dark night, and sighed softly: "Although I knew that it would be impossible to fight, but when Yan Guo and Xia Guo really withdrew their troops, there was still a little bit in my heart. disappointment."
Lu Ming sighed softly: "This is also normal, whether it is the Yan Kingdom or the Xia Kingdom, if there is a war in this matter, it will not be worthwhile for them, not to mention, these two countries have been paying attention to our military affairs. country, and they don’t want us to take advantage of it.”
"Forget it," Wu Yu waved his hand, and said, "This matter has been going on for so long, and it's time for the curtain to come to an end. Our country Wu didn't do anything, and it's not bad to pick up a bargain for nothing. This alliance meeting, Without Yan, we also have one less enemy."
Lu Ming frowned and said, "Your Highness, what are your plans?"
Wu Yu smiled lightly, and said: "Since Yan Guo has withdrawn from the competition, it's just me and Gu Qingci's battlefield now, and other things don't mean much, let's find a time, let me walk with him!"
...
In the palace, Emperor Xia and Mr. Wuque sat facing each other. He said slowly, "Sir, this time, Gu Qingci was a little wronged. However, his choice really surprised me."
Mr. Wu Que shook his head and said: "There is nothing unexpected. The rivers and lakes are facing the pressure of Linyuandongtian, and in the court, Yan Guo has 100,000 troops. Although it seems that they have nothing to do with him, but he is so With a character, if possible, he would rather go alone with a sword."
Emperor Xia nodded and said, "Then, has he mentioned his thoughts on this alliance meeting?"
Mr. Wuque nodded and said: "He may be really tired, and he wants to finish it soon. He is going to go to the prince of Wu Kingdom for a fair fight directly!"
Emperor Xia was slightly taken aback, bent his fingers together, tapped the table lightly, and said, "Is he sure, but don't be the last one. We tried our best, but let Wu Guo take advantage of it."
Mr. Wu Que smiled lightly, and said: "Although the seven mysteries of the world are quite famous, in fact, their real achievements are almost all fixed in the destiny realm. Their strongest is not combat power, but talent. In terms of Gu Qingci's strength , I am afraid that except for that girl Qin Keqing, everyone else should be able to remain invincible."
"Then I'm relieved." Emperor Xia breathed a sigh of relief, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and said with great interest: "Oh, yes, sir, I have always heard about that kid Gu Qingci and Qin Keqing. According to the legend, Gu Qingci won't really abduct the sword riddle of the Tianshan Dao Pavilion, right?"
Mr. Wu Que also showed an inscrutable smile, and said: "It's not too late, Gu Qingci is usually very clever, but when facing girls, he looks like an elm head, Qin Keqing even destroys himself for him. He has recast the way of the sword, and he is basically recognized, but that kid is paying back Miss Qin every day, alas, in his own words, he is betting on his own life!"
"Zhu Gusheng?" Emperor Xia savored these words carefully, smiled bluntly, and said: "These words are well used, but it's a pity, otherwise, I would like to learn from Emperor Yan, Hire him as a son-in-law."
Mr. Wu Que smiled heartily, and said: "If you really do this, I'm afraid that girl will rush into the palace with a sword in her hand and fight for her life!"
Laughed for a while, Mr. Wuque asked suddenly: "By the way, I remember how many people came to Cihang Jianzhai some time ago?"
A trace of gloom flashed across Emperor Xia's face, and he said, "A few people did come, and the leader was a great practitioner, who was so rampant that he didn't report to the six gates!"
...
Chang’an City in the early summer is not too hot, but the sun in the sky is already irritatingly hot, and the bluestone slabs start to heat up in the afternoon, and wisps of invisible and colorless smoke are lingering around.
Rows of big trees were planted beside the lake on the other side, making the stone path and the house very quiet. The lake breeze passed through it, and the temperature seemed to be much lower. Compared with the muggy streets of Chang'an City, it was a completely different world.
Gu Qingci was lying on a grand chair with his head resting on his arm, swaying, rarely free. These days, this lake on the other side was just like when he moved to a new house. Many people came to visit. It is impossible to refuse to meet a guest, but many ministers in the court have come, such as Lu Youjiang from Yushitai and others, it is really difficult for him to refuse.
Princes also came several times. This time, they all came in person. Even Emperor Xia photographed the little **** in the palace to come to greet him.
Gu Qingci turned sideways slightly, and muttered: "If only I could be so leisurely all the time!"
At this moment, a crisp voice came from the side: "It's not good to have no pursuit at such a young age."
Gu Qingci turned over, and two people came slowly across the lake. Seeing those two people, Gu Qingci slapped his forehead, hurried over, and said politely: "Uncle Mu, girl in Tsing Yi, why are you here?"
The girl in Tsing Yi smiled and bowed a blessing, and said: "Young Master Gu is in better health."
Gu Qingci nodded, and said: "I've been fine for a long time, and I said I was injured just because I didn't want to be disturbed, but the girl in Tsing Yi, I think you look much better."
Elder Mu curled his lips and said, "You're fine, so naturally this girl will be fine."
A blush appeared on Tsing Yi's face. Before Gu Qingci could react, he hugged the Tian Mo Qin in his arms and said, "Mr. Gu, I'm here to return your Qin."
Gu Qingci took the Tianmo Qin and said, "Thank you, girl in Tsing Yi, come here, don't stand there, sit down and have a cup of tea."
The sky that leaked through the green leaves of the big tree suddenly became much lighter. Elder Mu held a cup of tea and said: "You have a conscience, I told your guards in advance, if we are still stopped, Then you really should be drawn."
Gu Qingci smiled slightly, and said: "Uncle Shi, you and the girl in Tsing Yi are both distinguished guests of Qingci..."
Gu Qing was halfway through his speech, and suddenly froze, and stood up slowly, a voice resounding all over the world came in:
"Gu Qingci, come out to fight, I, Nie Changliu, are here!"
...
There is a boat on the shore of the lake. Gu Qingci stepped on the boat and waved his hand lightly. The boat cut through the white clouds and blue sky reflected on the lake surface.
On the shore of the lake, Elder Mu and Tsing Yi also slowly boarded a boat. A servant from the mansion sat behind and paddled slowly, followed behind Gu Qingci, and gradually passed a lotus field. At first glance, it looked like a pink lotus with dense lotus leaves. Except for the blue lotus leaves and pink lotus flowers, I can't see anything else.
The faint fragrance is refreshing, but Elder Mu frowned and asked, "Who is this Nie Changliu? How dare you challenge Gu Qingci!"
Gently stroking the smooth jade petals, Tsing Yi said lightly: "Uncle Master, the person who came to challenge Mr. Gu should be Nie Changliu, who ranks first on the Jianghu rookie list. This person has good talent and a good chance. He is a great practitioner."
Elder Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, and when a lotus leaf passed by, she said softly, "Is this Nie Changliu comparable to the Seven Mysteries of the World?"
"It shouldn't be comparable." Tsing Yi said.
"Then why should he challenge Gu Qingci?" Elder Mu said.
Tsing Yi thought for a while and said: "I have heard about this Nie Changliu before. He was just a disciple of a small sect before, but after some adventures, he quickly rose to prominence and became a great practitioner in just a few years. However, this person has a very special personality. Self, acting extreme, always threatening to challenge the seven mysteries of the world, calling himself the number one of the younger generation in the rivers and lakes!"
"The frog at the bottom of the well is just watching the sky from the well!"
The boat passed through the lotus pond, and there was a calm water surface. From a distance, Gu Qingci saw Nie Changliu standing on the shore. Outside the lake on the other side was a continuous mountain peak, and to the east was a dense forest. At this time, many people gathered in these places, and the sound of cicadas proved how hot the weather was, but there were more and more people.
Gu Qingci stood on the boat with his hands behind his back. The breeze on the lake blew up his hair on his forehead. The white clothes swayed gently with the wind. There was a Tianmoqin and an umbrella at the stern of the boat. He watched quietly. Looking at Nie Changliu, he didn't speak.
Nie Changliu was slightly excited when he saw Gu Qingci, and said loudly: "Gu Qingci, you have finally come out. I am here to challenge you. However, if your injury is not healed, I can give you time!"
What's wrong with everyone recently, they don't pay attention to me every day!
