Jing Shao so confused, half-push, half-accepted with the king of Huainan worship. The three and the green bamboo small building sat for an afternoon, a look of hate to see each other. From the sword about the art of war, from the food about the good, from the street gossip about poetry and song, until the setting sun slanting, only to say goodbye to each other, Gu Huaiqing told them that they live in Pingjiang City these days Shibui Garden, so that the two of them have the time to go to find him.
Looking at the back of the two left, Gu Huaiqing stood with his hands, gradually convergence of the smile on his face. This Cheng Wang Fu Fu two each have their own strengths, separate from perhaps not enough to worry about, but together is a nearly perfect combination, a text and a martial arts, a courage and a strategy, if it is the enemy with these two, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome.
"Your Highness, are you still returning to Danyang tomorrow?" The guards led their horses over and asked.
Danyang City was the main city of the Huainan Fiefdom, not far from Pingjiang, but not close either.
"Not back, pass the message back," Gu Huaiqing stretched out and put on a smile again, "It's not a hundred thousand urgent matters, all let them make up their own minds."
The guard sniffed and choked on his saliva, not a hundred thousand urgent are letting the ministers dispose of themselves, then if it is a hundred thousand urgent things naturally can not wait to send the news to Pingjiang! When Huai Xiang Da hears this news, it is estimated that he will be angry and faint again.
Jing Shao with his own princess back to walk, come when do not feel, go back only to find that the road is really long. The day is late, there is no place to hire a sedan chair, two green stone path walked for a long time, Mu Hanzhang some tired, Jing Shao touched his face, squatting down to carry him away.
"Quickly get up, properly, let the back be in order." Mu Hanzhang looked around, the street vendors had all closed their stalls, the road was empty, only the song house on the other side of the river was still bustling with activity.
"Get up here or carry on." Jing Shao said as he was about to stand up and pull him.
Mu Hanzhang was unable to do so and had to lie down on his back. At first, he felt very awkward, and was a little overwhelmed by wrapping his arms around Jing Shao's neck.
Jing Shao wrapped the pair of slender legs, stood up, the setting sun under the light of the green stone path slowly walking, the afterglow reflected aside the clear water river, quiet and peaceful. Put on the back of the upward pawing, patting his butt to show comfort.
With that shaky pace, Mu Hanyang gradually relaxed, warm body temperature passed through the soft material of the clothes, his shoulders were very broad, resting his chin on them was very comfortable. Mu Hanyang lay on top of it, cozily swaying his feet slightly.
"Say, what does the King of Huainan mean with the bonding?" Mu Hanzhang looked sideways at the sparkling water and said thoughtfully.
"That one of his is the most elusive." Jing Shao inclined his head and rubbed the cheek on his shoulder, "Being spontaneous and flipping his face as fast as a book, he might just be having fun."
"Hmmm ......" came a vague response over his shoulder, seemingly still thinking.
"See anything?" Jing Shao shook his back.
Mu Hanyangzhang deliberated on the wording, "Knowledgeable and capable. And he seems to get along well, often with a smile on his face, such tends to be very good at enlisting hearts."
Jing Shao nodded, the king of Huainan that, indeed worthy of the eight words "knowledgeable, outstanding ability".
Southwest and southeast has been pacified, although the king of Huainan seems to have been peaceful, so that can not pick any faults, but to Hongzheng emperor's nature, the withdrawal of the clan is sooner or later. And this time the war went so well, I'm afraid that the court will be born some pride and arrogance, at most one year, will certainly order the withdrawal of the clan. If we can cooperate with the king of Huainan, pretending to fight, will delay the war, on the one hand, can retain the military power, and on the other hand, can take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune, so as to give Jing Chen ascension to the throne of the silver.
"It's better to be careful with a tiger." Mu Hanzhang knew Jing Shao's intentions and reminded him at the right time.
"Will grasp the proportion," Jing Shao nodded, the danger can win, and Gu Huaiqing teamed up with him a long time ago, that although sinister and fickle, but a great wisdom, and then smiled and said, "The tiger is not necessarily hurt, look at Xiao Huang."
Mentioning the little tiger, Mu Hanzhang couldn't help but laugh softly, that stupid thing as long as it was given jerky, it must be very willing to offer up its fur to him as a blanket.
The setting sun shines on two of them, pulling out a long shadow on the green stone path.
The next day, the two went to the Shibui Garden, taking with them a precious sword brought from the Southeast King, and leading the little tiger.
The little tiger was not willing to go out, the weather is so cold, should stay in the house around the furnace to sleep, Mu Huanzhang scratched the little yellow head, this guy on the carriage on the wilting, must be afraid of the cold.
"Such thick fur, where would it be cold?" Jing Shao pinched the fur on the little tiger's neck, it was smooth and thick, would he be cold?
"I've heard that lions are afraid of the cold, I'm sure that King Huai Nan's beast garden will be very warm." Mu Hanzhang stroked the little tiger head, the reason why they brought Little Yellow with them was because yesterday Gu Huaiqing said that he had raised a lion in Shibui Garden, which was just bought from a seafaring merchant this year, and they were going to return to the capital in the next few days, so they had to discuss it with King Huainan beforehand, and Little Yellow was an excuse to make an appearance on the doorstep the next day.
Shibui Garden was the largest garden in Pingjiang City, with pavilions inside, not to mention, most importantly, there was a hot spring.
"This is the tiger cub we raised?" Gu Huaiqing smiled and welcomed him out, reaching out to touch Little Yellow's head.
"Woohoo!" Yellow yelped indignantly, baring her teeth at him and not giving a touch.
"Growing quite strong," Gu Huaiqing smiled disinterestedly and led them inside, "The lion that was raised was afraid of the cold, so it was put in the warm pavilion."
Said warm pavilion, in fact, is a small courtyard with a shed roof, full of grass, flowers and trees, a pool of warm water in the center, foggy, very warm, just not far from the door is fenced, not allowed to go in. A small yellow with almost the length of the small lion is sleeping inside, a few rabbits far away to hide aside to eat grass.
"Putting them together, I'm afraid they're going to fight." Mu Hanzhang looked at the tiger cub that was picking at the fence and probing curiously inside, and then looked at the lion cub that was closing its eyes and pretending to sleep, and always felt that his own tiger was going to lose in a fight.
"It's small, it won't fight to the death." Jing Shao was curious to see how the two would react to the encounter, grabbing the little tiger and throwing it in.
"Woohoo!" The little tiger was thrown down cold, startled, staggered a few times, and curiously crouched down to look at the little lion not far away.
The young lion opened his eyes, noticing the foreign intruder, and slowly raised his head, but didn't get up, staring warily at Yellow.
"This kind of thing still needs to be raised wild, otherwise it's no fun to raise it as a house cat." Gu Huaiqing led them to another warm pavilion for tea.
"We will be departing for the capital the day after tomorrow." Mu Hanzhang said in a warm voice.
Gu Huaiqing in front of a full set of tea set, not fake hand, steep, punch, smell, enjoy, a set of action flow, coupled with the practice of martial arts of the flexible approach, looks pleasing to the eye. Will two cups of tea to the two front, heard the words of Mu Hanzhang, hand movements have not paused: "this time to pacify the rebellion made a great achievement, we must be careful to return to the capital."
The two pairs looked at each other, made a big achievement but asked them to be careful, this kind of saying, is to show good intentions.
"Big brother," Jing Shao was silent for a moment, and cheerfully called out to his big brother, "Since we have worshipped, some words will be said directly, now that the Southeast and Southwest have been overthrown, does big brother have any plans?"
Gu Huaiqing lowered his head to make a cup of tea for himself, smiled at the words, the corner of his lips hooked up a light smile, did not answer but asked, "The Empress holds the harem, the fourth prince is arrogant, what are the plans of the second brother?"
Talking to smarts just saves time, and the three can't help but smile at each other.
"Although this Huainan is small, but the ancestors have been operating for many years, there is still a fight," Gu Huaiqing said, turned his gaze to Mu Huanzhang, looking at his handsome and gentle face could not help but smile badly, said and began to be immodest, "The capital is not peaceful nowadays, Dixu if you can not get by, why don't you come to join us. "
Jing Shao sniffed and heavily knocked his cup on the table, "Didn't you have enough fights yesterday?"
Gu Huaiqing rubbed his still bruised chin, but smiled.
"If big brother can't get by, he can also come to the capital to join us." Mu Hanzhang said with a gentle smile.
