step on mountains and rivers

Tang Qingfeng and Li Zhenwu were sitting in the hall drinking, Li Zhenwu asked him suspiciously:

"Brother Tang? Do I really look so weak?"

Tang Qingfeng glanced at him carefully, and replied seriously:

"Zhenwu is not weak, but beautiful."

"Brother Tang......" Li Zhenwu was speechless.

"Well, Zhenwu has never been weak. The appearance is not important, but the heart is important." Tang Qingfeng said.

After Tang Qingfeng finished speaking, Wu Xing'er and the others came over.

After hearing Tang Qingfeng's words, she looked at Tang Qingfeng with disbelief:

"Tang Qingfeng, you are right. Appearance is not important. If Li Daochang was born with a rough appearance, would you still think so?"

"Wu Xing'er, you will die if you don't speak?" Tang Qingfeng said angrily.

"Tang Qingfeng, do you dare to admit it?" Wu Xing'er asked forcefully.

Jiang Ling looked at the two fighting spirits, and said to Lu Qing:

"Lu Qing, it's too noisy here, let's drink somewhere else."

"En." Lu Qing nodded, and Jiang Ling walked to the table next to him.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Lan Mo and Li Zhenwu pulled them apart and sat at different tables.

Tang Qingfeng drank a glass of sake and said seriously to Li Zhenwu:

"Zhenwu, you are you, even if you are big and thick, I will always be the same."

"......" Li Zhenwu imagined his own image of five big and three thick, and he really couldn't accept it, let alone let Tang Qingfeng accept it.

So he said slowly:

"Brother Tang, if that's the case, I can just concentrate on practicing swords, and I must not delay others."

Tang Qingfeng listened to his words, and smiled softly: "Zhenwu, I didn't expect you to like my appearance."

"Brother Tang, I'm not, I mean..." Li Zhenwu explained, and then said softly, "Brother Tang, whatever you do, it's fine."

"Really?" Tang Qingfeng asked.

"Yes." Li Zhenwu nodded.

"Why is Zhenwu so biased?" Tang Qingfeng asked.

"Huh?" Li Zhenwu asked.

"Partial to me." Tang Qingfeng said with a slight smile.

"........." Li Zhenwu was speechless.

"Zhenwu." Tang Qingfeng said.

"Yes." Li Zhenwu replied.

"Me too." Tang Qingfeng said softly.

"Brother Tang..." Li Zhenwu was speechless.

After the two finished talking, they drank for a while and went to rest.

On the second day, Zhuge Qingyuan woke up and asked everyone to stay in Jiyuan to wait for the news, while he took Tang Qingfeng and Li Zhenwu to the mansion of the lord of Pingjing City.

On the way, Zhuge Qingyuan looked at Li Zhenwu who had changed back to normal attire, slightly surprised.

"Uh, I've seen countless people, but I was wrong last night." He complained to Li Zhenwu as he spoke, "You say you're a man, what are you doing pretending to be an oiran? Looking for trouble."

"........." Li Zhenwu was speechless.

"Senior, you are old and dim-sighted, no wonder Zhenwu. Besides, if Zhenwu doesn't pretend to be an oiran, senior must have run away early." Tang Qingfeng replied.

"..........." Zhuge Qingyuan was speechless.

The three were silent, and Li Zhenwu saw the awkward situation, so he asked:

"Senior, what kind of person is the City Master of Pingjing City?"

Seeing that Li Zhenwu changed the subject, Zhuge Qingyuan quickly replied:

"The lord of Pingjing City is an empress named Sachiko Oda. Like the Holy Emperor, she is talented, decisive, ruthless, and good at reading people's hearts. She is a powerful woman."

"A person who can rule a country, regardless of gender, must have some ruthless methods." Tang Qingfeng sighed.

"En." Zhuge Qingyuan nodded.

"That's the case, why did senior say she was weak before?" Li Zhenwu asked puzzled.

"Although she has a strong brain, her military strength is very weak, and she still wants to fight the enemy with a knife. Do you think she has a nervous problem?" Zhuge Qingyuan replied.

"Uh... the junior doesn't know." Li Zhenwu said speechlessly.

While chatting, the three of them walked to the city lord's mansion without knowing it.

Zhuge Qingyuan stepped forward, stood at the door, and shouted to the warrior:

"Go and tell Sachiko Oda that Zhuge Qing, whom she has been looking for, has seen her."

"Zhuge Qingyuan!!!" The samurai was shocked and ran into the mansion.

The three of them waited for a while, and a middle-aged stunner dressed in gorgeous Yingzhou costumes came slowly from the courtyard with several handsome warriors.

When she walked to the door, she saw Zhuge Qingyuan standing outside the door at a glance, so she greeted with a smile:

"Master Zhuge, why did you come in person?"

"Empress, haven't you been looking for me? Just in time, the old man also has something to look for you, so I'm here." Zhuge Qingyuan replied.

"Oh? Why is the craftsman looking for the emperor?" The queen asked with a smile.

"Let's go in and talk about it." Zhuge Qingyuan replied.

The queen looked at him, then at the two handsome young men behind him, nodded and said:

"Okay, please come in."

After the queen finished speaking, she led a few people into the mansion.

Several people walked through the courtyard and came to the house. The queen glanced at the warriors and signaled them to back down.Then he glanced at Zhuge Qingyuan again and said:

"Master, since we have important matters to discuss, it is not good for outsiders to be present."

"They are not outsiders." Zhuge Qingyuan replied.

"Okay, who are these two?" the Queen asked.

"Next to Tang Qingfeng." Tang Qingfeng replied.

"Poverty Li Zhenwu." Li Zhenwu replied.

The Queen nodded, and Zhuge Qingyuan continued:

"Empress, haven't you always wanted to destroy Takeda? This time I did it for this matter. Before that, the two of them are very powerful, and they can help you."

After hearing Zhuge Qingyuan's words, the queen looked at the two of them, and said with some doubts:

"Takeda Genichiro's martial arts are extremely high, the two of them, okay?"

"You don't have to worry about that. I came here this time to cooperate with you. You know my purpose. I want to kill Fujiwara, and you want to kill Takeda Genichiro. Our common goal is Takeda Castle. So, Empress, will you accept my proposal?" Zhuge Qingyuan asked.

The queen thought for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Spiritual craftsman, it's not impossible to cooperate, but, what do you think about the magic sword?"

"Queen, it's not that I don't want to." Zhuge Qingyuan said after a pause: "With your force, ordinary long swords are enough, you don't need magic swords."

"Great craftsman, how can the power of ordinary long swords compare to magic swords?" the queen said.

Zhuge Qingyuan looked at her and sighed:

"Queen, it's easy to hurt yourself with a weapon that doesn't match your strength."

"I will naturally pay attention to this, so I don't need to worry about it." The queen replied with a smile.

"Okay, I have one last question." Zhuge Qingyuan agreed.

"Spiritual craftsman, please tell me." The queen replied.

"I want to ask you, why are you so obsessed with the magic sword?" Zhuge Qingyuan asked puzzled.

"Master craftsman." The queen smiled slightly: "Only the strength in your hands belongs to you."

"So that's the case." Zhuge Qingyuan said to her clearly: "Okay, I promise you."

"Thank you, Master Craftsman. Then we will settle this matter." The Queen smiled.

"Well. There are still many details that need to be discussed. Before the matter is settled, I will stay with the empress to facilitate my actions." Zhuge Qingyuan said.

"Okay, then I will arrange accommodation for a few of you." The queen agreed.

"Empress, we still have a few companions, please arrange them together." Tang Qingfeng said.

The queen glanced at the handsome Tang Qingfeng, and nodded:

"Okay, how many other companions does Mr. Tang have?"

"Four people." Tang Qingfeng replied.

"Well, okay, I will send someone to make arrangements. You can bring them over first, and we will discuss the matter of attacking Takeda Castle in the evening." The Queen said.

"Okay, thank you Queen." Tang Qingfeng said.

"Mr. Tang, you are welcome." The queen smiled and said, "Then I will go first, and you gentlemen will chat slowly." She got up and walked out the door.

Seeing the Queen leave, Zhuge Qingyuan said to Tang Qingfeng and Li Zhenwu:

"I'll pick them up, you wait here."

"Okay." The two nodded.

After Zhuge Qingyuan finished speaking, he got up and left the room.

After watching Zhuge Qingyuan leave, Tang Qingfeng picked up the exquisite dessert on the table and handed it to Li Zhenwu:

"Zhenwu, what do you think of this queen?"

Li Zhenwu took the snack, took a bite, thought for a moment and said:

"Perseverance is so strong, forbearance and determination are indeed talents for governing the country."

"In just a few moments of conversation, Zhenwu has seen so much." Tang Qingfeng said with a smile: "Zhenwu, I always thought you were smart, but you just didn't want to show it."

"Brother Tang..." Li Zhenwu said speechlessly.

"Well, I know that the real martial arts will be like this, just because they don't want to fight for their fame." Tang Qingfeng said softly.

Li Zhenwu nodded slightly: "Fame and fortune are fleeting, but they are not what I want."

"Zhenwu is right. Zhenwu doesn't want fame and wealth, but wants to be with me. I'm very happy." Tang Qingfeng laughed.

"........." Li Zhenwu's face gradually turned red when he heard Tang Qingfeng's words.He withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and ate his snack silently.

Seeing Li Zhenwu like this, Tang Qingfeng felt very cute, and he felt dark in his heart, and wanted to make fun of him more and more.

Just listen to him whispering:

"Zhenwu, what do you think the empress looks like?"

Li Zhenwu, who was eating snacks silently, heard Tang Qingfeng's question, thought for a while, and said seriously:

"In terms of appearance, it's on par with Ms. Nami."

"Oh? So what does Zhenwu think of Ms. Nami's appearance?" Tang Qingfeng asked with a smile.

Li Zhenwu thought for a moment and replied:

"The hibiscus comes out of the clear water, and the carvings are naturally removed."

"I didn't expect Miss Nami to be so pure and beautiful in Zhenwu's heart." Tang Qingfeng smiled lightly.

Li Zhenwu looked at the smiling Tang Qingfeng, and suddenly realized that he didn't seem to be discussing the woman's appearance with him, so he hurriedly explained:

"Brother Tang, what I said just now is just stating the facts, not..."

"Zhenwu, I know." Tang Qingfeng replied with a smile, and then continued to ask:

"Zhenwu thought, how do I look better than them?"

Li Zhenwu listened to his words and looked at him seriously. From his smiling eyes, Li Zhenwu saw full of love.

His face turned slightly red unconsciously, and he turned his eyes slightly sideways, but the corner of his eyes accidentally caught Tang Qingfeng's delicate collarbone.Above the collarbone, the white and slender neck seemed to be emitting a slightly sweet breath.

Li Zhenwu looked a little stunned, and before he recovered, Tang Qingfeng saw through his thoughts.He smiled slightly and asked Li Zhenwu softly:

"Zhenwu, where are you looking?"

Li Zhenwu was so startled by his words that he hurriedly withdrew his eyes and thought to himself: "What's wrong with me? Why are you so frivolous?" Thinking of him, he forced himself to calm down and said softly:

"Brother Tang, you are a man, but you can't compare with them."

Seeing that Li Zhenwu changed the subject, Tang Qingfeng didn't continue to ask about it.He looked at Li Zhenwu and smiled and continued:

"Zhenwu, let's talk about appearance, what do you think?"

Li Zhenwu looked at him and said slowly:

"Baiyujing in the sky, twelve floors and five cities, the immortals supported me on the top, tied my hair and gave me longevity."

He paused as he spoke, and said seriously to Tang Qingfeng: "Brother Tang, you will be the immortal who bestows longevity on his hair."

Listening to Li Zhenwu's answer, Tang Qingfeng looked at him with a smile on his face and said:

"Okay, I will tie up with Zhenwu, and we will live together forever."

"Brother Tang." Li Zhenwu stared at him blankly, then lowered his head, and said softly:

"it is good."
