The study was also rummaged through in a mess, even the paperweight on the table, pen wash were ransacked.
Mu Hanzhang walked to the wall hanging before a pair of calligraphy and painting, will be broken place to correct, to be clear about what is painted, can not help but great pity: "turbid water dispersed people's paintings of thousands of gold is hard to find, but was trampled on this way."
Jing Shao put over to see, but it is a landscape, can not see what is special, mu hanzhang see him do not understand, then warm voice explanation.
Turbid Water Scatterer was one of the sixteen scatterers in the former former dynasty, at that time, the respect for calligraphy and paintings reached the highest since ancient times, and the sixteen scatterers were the best of them, they often studied paintings together, but due to the war at the end of the period, these paintings were preserved very little.
Mu Hanyang took off the scroll that was already rotten, carefully rolled it up, and went back to find a connoisseur to stick it up, perhaps it can still be restored as it was: "This painting can be much more valuable than jewelry, why doesn't the Southwest King bring it with him?"
"This generation's Southwest King is an illiterate one, follow me." Jing Shao pulled his own princess towards the small cubicle in the study.
The study of a large family will have a small compartment, which puts the bed couch for resting on weekdays, this study is no exception, but this compartment is really a bit on the small side, can only put down a bed. The bed and couch is messy, even the jade piece on the pillow has been gouged away, it looks quite miserable.
"I'm sure the slaves in the Southwest King's residence have all taken quite a few things as well." Mu Hanzhang looked at the lanyard on the tent curtain that had been removed from the golden hook and said.
"Rats in a sinking ship, everyone has to find a way to live isn't it." Jing Shao laughed and ripped off the entire tent with one hand, revealing an uneven wall.
Jing Shao jumped onto the bed and couch and said to the person behind him, "Junqing, back off a bit."
Mu Hanzhang complied and exited the cubicle, just to see Jing Shao lift his leg and kick hard against the uneven wall.
Rumble, the wall was kicked out of a big hole, wood stubble splash, Mu Hanzhang only then saw that the wall is actually made of wood, just the surface of a layer of thin brick. When the dust cleared, through the inside seems to be a house, just darkness can not really see.
Jing Shao took out the fire folders he had brought with him and lit the candlestick on the small table with his hand, took the lead and dug in, quickly lighting the candles in the hut and reaching out to fetch his own Wangfei in.
Mu Hanzhang looked at the small room in front of him, there is no window, it should be a secret room, there is a five-foot high black Buddha statue on the high platform, there are several futons underneath, there is a bronze square tripod in the center of the room, there are wooden shelves all around, many of the things on it are already gone, but there are still four or five scrolls in the ceramic barrels, and there are several long boxes on the wooden shelves, and there are some scattered jewels and broken beads and broken jades all over the place in the bronze tripod.
Jing Shao took the lead to walk towards that wooden shelf, flipping through a few long boxes, all of them were very ancient boxes, which contained various colors of delicate daggers and long swords, only one pressed at the bottom, the box was very worn out, opening it up, inside was a weapon that had rusted on the outside, it seemed to be a narrow blade, and also seemed to be a short sword. Seeing this object, can not help but lightly relieved breath, fortunately re-lived a life, the southwest king is still that illiterate southwest king.
"Spoon, come see!" Mu Hanzhang's voice was quite excited.
Jing Shao will box the old knife up, come over to look at the scroll in the hands of his own princess, is a strange picture, above the flowers, birds, insects and fish all kinds of complete, but each style is different, put together a picture is quite strange: "What is this?"
"Sixteen Fugues of the Nine Songs! This is the combined drawing of the sixteen scattered people!" Mu Hanzhang was overjoyed, the sixteen scatterers only painted this one picture throughout his life, a real heirloom treasure, which had disappeared in the previous dynasty, and surprisingly landed in the Southwest King's Palace, and was also abandoned, "This painting is also worth a thousand taels of gold."
"The King of the Southwest has to flee for his life, so it's not good to bring calligraphy and paintings with him," Jing Shao laughed as he rolled up the picture that looked ugly to him and took the rusty knife out of his hand, "Look at what this is."
Mu Hanzhang took it, the rust on it was very obvious, the knife couldn't be pulled out, the handle seemed to be rusted together with the sheath.
Jing Shao took his hand and pressed it gently against the side of the sheath, clicking the clasp open and slowly drawing out the blade.
The red-colored blade surface, resembling gold rather than gold, resembling jade rather than jade, resembling onyx, even in the dark room, still as colorful as Danxia.
"So beautiful." Even though Mu Hanzhang was not a lover of blades, he still couldn't help but admire it, there was no carving on the blade, just the smooth and moist blade alone was beautiful enough.
Jing Shao smoothly took one of the fallen hairs on his own princess's shoulder and put it on the blade: "Come blow on it."
Mu Hanzhang glanced at him and laughed, "Blowing hair is just a rumor, do you think there is really such a blade in this world?"
"Then why don't we make a bet, if it's really possible, what's the prize?" Jing Shao smiled and came to his ear.
Seeing his certainty and curiosity, Mu Hanyang seriously blew on the fallen hair.
"Hey, we haven't even talked about the lottery!" Jing Shao hurriedly retracted the knife, but still couldn't come in time, the falling hair touched the thin blade and immediately snapped into two, slowly floating down.
"Really is a treasure knife!" Mu Hanzhang surprised, the world really have such treasures, turned his head to look at Jing Shao, but saw that the man puffed up and glared at him, could not help but lose his smile, reached out and pinched his face, "How with a child like."
"Hmph! This knife not only can't help to blow off hair, but also cuts iron like mud!" Jing Shao didn't get the benefit and was furious, he took the treasure knife and slashed at the base of the blackened Buddha statue, with a brush and pull sound, a petal of the lotus pedestal was chipped off, the two of them froze on the spot.
Wrapped in a black shell is a golden solid interior, this five-foot-tall Buddha statue is actually cast in pure gold!
Golden Buddha is so huge, Southwest King can not move away, the two of them naturally can not be swallowed, called the soldiers will be Buddha carried away, together with the ancient bronze tripod, immediately escorted back to the capital.
Although there was no more actual gold, those ancient paintings and the precious sword could be taken away secretly.
"I heard the right guard said, you will make the sword." Jing Shao pulled his own Wangfei out of the secret room, so as not to look at that big Buddha meat pain, he is now considered to realize the mood of the southwest king when he fled, knowing that this valuable belongings are placed here, just can not move away, no wonder the first grandchildren are also forgotten, is really difficult to peace in the heart.
"I only know some moves, no internal power, just self-preservation in times of crisis." Regarding his own little bit of kung fu, Mu Hanzhang didn't think it was much practical.
"You will carry this knife with you from now on." Jing Shao wiped the sword clean and hung it on his own princess's waist.
"The precious sword is mostly useless in my hands, so why waste its life of fame." Mu Hanzhang rubbed the ancient hilt of the sword and pursed his lips slightly, this sword he really loved, but in the hands of him, a person who only knew a little bit about sword techniques, it was a pity.
"This blade should have been yours." Jing Shao smiled, this time he came to the secret room just to find this knife. It resembled jade, not gold, and was as colorful as Danxia, and in ancient times, there were the Treasure Nine Weapons, and this knife was named Huanzhang!
Not long after, the small soldier who carried the Buddha came to report in a hurry, "Your Majesty, underneath that Buddha is a secret passage!"
Jing Shao frowned, the Southwest King of the last life was beheaded by him on the way to escape, so he has never studied where the secret passage is exactly, this time the Southwest King escaped early and did not know the trail, searching for this secret passage when it can be known.
Immediately with people along the secret track tracking to see, the secret road is narrow, traveling slowly, until dusk Fang has news, the secret road straight to the east of the city ten miles away from a dry well, the Southwest King when it is carrying something heavy, the rutting of the road is very obvious, straight to the east.
"I think he must have gone to join the Southeast King, the things in that car should be gold, silver, and jewelry." Mu Hanzhang speculated.
"Your Majesty, I will take 1,000 light cavalry to go after them, and I will definitely bring that old pimp back alive!" Zhao Meng leaped forward and said.
Jing Shao pondered for a moment and raised his hand to stop Zhao Meng's words, "There's no need to chase after him."
"Your Highness, why is this?" Zhao Meng was unsure, now that the Southwest King didn't have many people with him, it was easy to kill him, "Your Highness, if you don't get rid of the roots of the grass, you'll be left with future problems."
"If the Southwest King doesn't die, once he escapes into the Southeast, he is letting the tiger return to the mountain!" Hao Da Dao, who had arranged the army, walked in carrying the little tiger cub.
"Woowoo!" Little yellow heard let the tiger return to the mountain immediately agreed, a pair of big eyes but half did not leave Hao Dazhou waist of the cloth bag, but also in the deed and not give up stretching claws.
Mu Hanzhang picked up Little Yellow and stroked the fluff on top of its head, "That mountain is not owned by the King of the Southwest, the ancient saying is that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers."
Hao Da Dao nodded, "Then let him go?"
"This king has his own decision," Jing Shao didn't intend much, waving his hand to let them go down, "There are many courtyards in the mansion, you guys go pick one to rest on your own."
The right guard sniffed, immediately ran out in a hurry, those small bamboo baskets in the backyard looked very interesting, he could not sit still for a long time. The left guard looked at his back expressionless, and silently followed him out.
When the crowd dispersed, Jing Shao immediately took out a pen and paper and wrote a three-thousand-mile expedited folding, and reported the news of the capture of Cloud City and the Southwest King's flight to the southeast as soon as possible.
Mu Hanzhang quietly watched him write, the little tiger cub in his arms was comfortably touched by him, lying on his back in that warm embrace and huffing and puffing. Jing Shao this kind of behavior, Zhao Meng they do not understand, but he knows. Southwest king is now already treasonous and rebellious, the southeast king if he is to accept him, is with him together with the rebellion, the army morale is flourishing, just swing southeast. Only ......
"Why are you in such a hurry to attack Southeast?" Mu Hanzhang looked at the heavy hints in the folders, Emperor Hongzheng read this 3,000 li expedited, he will definitely send another 3,000 li expedited holy decree for him to attack southeast directly. Jing Shao's many behaviors are very strange, others don't know, he is with them day by day naturally see clearly, just like that secret room today, if not know in advance, how to directly seek?
