feud

Cen Li stepped into Jiankang Tingwei Temple with his front foot, and Lin Yi stepped into the border of Runan with his back foot.

A plate of peeled lychees was placed on the jade plate, and the jade plate was dragged by a slender hand. The crystal flesh, the high-quality exquisite jade, and the pink and tender hand seemed to be one.

Minglanxuan is the restaurant most favored by dignitaries and dignitaries in Xuanhu City. It is brightly lit at night, men and women flock to the door, and the sound of piano playing and cheering and clinking of wine glasses can be heard in the unique elegant house.

Juice was dripping from the lychee pulp, the ice in the jade plate had already melted into water, and the lychee that was brought in by the beauty was still intact.

Ji Dong brought the golden cup to his lips, pushed away the woman who was about to feed him lychees for the fifth time, and glanced at the silhouette of the screen playing the piano.Putting down the empty wine bottle, Yuan Pinghou smirked politely and "protested" to the person opposite: "The eunuch's hospitality, Ziyou has appreciated it and is very grateful."

Seeing Yuan Pinghou's unintentional beauty, Zhang Taishou, who was nearly forty years old, waved his hand, and the sound of the piano stopped abruptly. The ghosts and ghosts in Yuan Pinghou's eyes gradually withdrew. , It is really Min's crime, and I dare not accept Yuan Pinghou's gratitude."

At dusk today, Zhang Min suddenly received the news that Yuan Pinghou had arrived at the border of Runan, so he rolled over non-stop to meet this big Buddha who didn't collect taxes in the town and went to the border to enjoy the scenery. Clean up the wind and dust for Yuan Pinghou - have dinner.

Runan was destroyed by the state of Chu last year, and regained by Daliang in February this year. The new prefect Zhang Deliang, styled Min, rushed to Runan from Jiankang to take office. However, it was not so peaceful. There were small groups of "rebels" who wanted to suppress them every few days. This kind of hard work fell on Zhang Min's shoulders. The new Runan prefect wanted to reunite the broken Runan County, but There are many difficulties and troubles.

Lin Yi, who was stabbed in the stomach, was injured in Shanyin for more than a month. He could barely walk on the ground, so he bumped the carriage to Jiankang, met the emperor and the prime minister, and saved Cen Li as the prince of the Xiongnu. The rascal's rhetoric of "deserving death" was loyal, and he and Liu Pi never revealed Cen Li's identity in their actions. The attitude of turning a blind eye was fooled by this.

But what he didn't know was that during the more than a month when he was recuperating in Shanyin, Cen Li met Mo Kongwan and other ministers in Runan County. At that time, Cen Li left to go south to Jiankang to seek Wang's illness, and the two of them just passed each other by accident.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Where is it? It's good that there are so many eunuchs and you don't blame Ziyou for being abrupt. The scene here is so big that it really opened Ziyou's eyes. It's the eunuch Zhang who has a heart."

Zhang Min went up for Lin Yiman again, and said with a smile: "I've heard about Yuan Pinghou's young hero, but unfortunately I'm not very useful in Jiankang, and I didn't have the chance to see him. Seeing him today is like seeing General Pingwei's style again."

General Pingwei Sima Ye had a great reputation, but his end was not good. Lin Yi didn't know if Zhang Min meant something, so he had to use his usual self-deprecating method to deal with it. "General Pingwei made great contributions to the unification of the whole country by defeating the state of Wu, and he was the number one hero in the Seven Kings' Rebellion. Ziyou dare not compare with General Pingwei."

Zhang Min continued to flatter loudly, his posture was to praise Zhuge Kongming as a vanguard soldier who raised a knife to kill the enemy, "Where is it, Yuan Pinghou is also a dragon and a phoenix among people, hey! People are finally here, please hurry up. "

The door was pushed open, and a man in armor strode in. There was still blood on the scabbard at his waist, his sword eyebrows flew obliquely into his temples, his eyes were thin and his nose was high, and his complexion was dark. He looked like he hadn't passed his age yet. When you come, you will be surrounded by an invisible oppressive force, with a murderous feeling.

"Weihan Wangshan in the north of Runan, styled Kuang. I met Yuan Pinghou."

Han Kuangchao and Han Kuangchao bowed to each other, which was obviously a very elegant gesture, and Lin Yi thought he was about to draw his sword to kill someone.

In the county, the position of captain is second only to the prefect, and the prefect divides the army and the people. Runan is a border county, and it is also a place where demons dance and live together. The degree of chaos can be imagined, no more than the inland counties with only one captain.This big Buddha is much bigger than the eunuch, and when he came in to salute, he sat behind the eunuch on the left, said "nice to meet you" to Lin Yi with precious words, and then sat like a sculpture, not flattering anyone.

Zhang Min seemed to be accustomed to this, and toasted Lin Yi again.After drinking for three rounds, enough flattering, everyone has arrived, Lin Yi said: "Zi You came here to ask for something, I wonder if Eunuch Zhang can give you some advice?"

"Hey!" Zhang Min breathed out, feeling disgusted by Lin Yi's outspokenness, and said, "I don't dare to be an advisor. If Yuan Pinghou has something to say, I can still talk about it in this land."

Lin Yi said the words that he repeated countless times in his heart, "A dear friend of Ziyou came to Runan about two months ago, but there has been no news from him so far. Ziyou was worried that something bad happened to him, so he came to ask the prefect to help him. I hope the prefect will be successful." Ziyou's unfeeling request."

Finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and besides, he doesn't even know where Cen Li is, so he can only search aimlessly based on that little guesswork and anxiety. He bought Cen Li in Runan back then, and now he thinks it's funny. He will be here.Cen Li is the prince of the Huns. He is destined to return to Pingyang, and there are tens of thousands of roads to the north. Lin Yi is also desperate. He has been disabled for more than a month. What if he has already left or is not here at all? Here, to the north is Chu State, which he can't reach. If this is the case, wouldn't they be farewell forever?

Ten days later, there was indeed news of Cen Li.

Lin Yi has a noble status. He just came out of the prefect's mansion this morning. He has been in Runan for twelve days, plus he spent more than a month recuperating in Shanyin and in the middle of the rush to go to Jiankang and come to Runan. On the second day of March, everything outside Shanyin City is still vivid in his mind, and he and Cen Li have been separated for two months and ten days.

In midsummer, on the twelfth day of the fifth lunar month, the sun was like sparks, and the city of Xuanhu was scorching like a hot furnace, and all kinds of people on the street were sweating profusely.

Lin Yi, who had just come out of the prefect's mansion, the incomparably noble Yuan Pinghou naturally didn't have to walk on his feet, and he was bored sitting in the carriage. The grapes and lychees were all ready-made peeled and iced. He picked up a plump one with his hands. Eat lychees with juice, drink a sip of sweet spring like a traveler walking in the desert.

After waiting for nearly half a month, the prefect finally got news—someone saw the person suspected to be in the portrait provided by Lin Yi at the gate of the city.

Cen Li has already entered Xuanhu City.

There was no news for more than ten days, and Lin Yi was about to give up his plan to stay in Runan. However, the news came in time, and the idea of ​​"capturing" Cen Li revived again.

Lin Yi poked his head out from the carriage, and said to the family of servants accompanying him, "Abbot, you go back to the inn first, Feige sent a message to ask Ah Wu and the others to go back to Xuanhu City, and take the badges to find them with the captain's soldiers. .”

The servant responded, and Cen Li said to the driver in front, "Changing to Baixianglou."

Xiaobei neatly folded the map from Jiankang to Runan, ranging from the high and low terrain outside the city to every street in the city. He followed Cen Li to draw all the way to Runan, and put it to sleep In the cloth bag that you have to look at before.

"Come on, let's eat first." Xiaodong pushed a bowl of green onion noodles in front of Xiaobei, "I have to go back after dinner. Everyone has been exhausted for the past half month. Go back and have a good sleep."

The four of them happened to sit together at a table, so the so-called "going back" they all knew where they were going back. The noodle shop was full of people, and smart and experienced people would not talk about personal matters in this kind of place.

The four of them sucked and ate noodles, and the other five sat at the desk next door, giggling and drinking. On the other side, Cen Li carried the hot noodles and got into the carriage. Inside the spacious carriage was a table. Wang Bing leaned in the corner and looked out the window. The bustling crowd turned their heads when they heard the sound of someone lifting the bamboo curtain.

Ever since there was a hideous scar on his face, when he was talking to people, even if they pretended not to see them, the look in his eyes was different after all.Once when we were eating by the side of the road, Wang Bing’s face scared Xiao Er so much that he even overturned the food served. Since then, Cen Li didn’t let him meet anyone casually, or let others see him, even poking his head Cen Li forcefully snapped him back even if he took a look out of the car window.

Cen Li of Jin Che Zangjiao brought two bowls of chopped green onion noodles, ready to eat as usual, but Wang Bing didn't bring any of the bowls, so he put the noodles in the bowl again when he reached his mouth, and asked, "Not to your liking?"

Finely chopped scallions float on the oil soup, and an egg lies on the golden surface, and the aroma is pungent.Wang Bing shook his head, compared with wild sunflowers, this is simply delicious in the world, how could he dislike it?

"You want to get out of the car?" Cen Li put down the intact scallion noodles, there was no trace of impatience in his eyes.They rushed to Runan at the fastest speed, rarely stayed in the hotel for rest, and it was summer, even His Royal Highness was tanned quite a bit, but the sickness of the king alone was still as white and tender as a piece of tofu.

Wang Bing shook his head. On the way here, Cen Li had already told him what happened in Shanyin and Zhao Guo’s Minister Mo Kongwan arranged for the four Xiaodong brothers to go south with him. Wang Bing knew very well that he was about to go south. Arriving at a Hun's lair, I was still a little uneasy. After all, I had a special status and Xiaobei had a criminal record. I was afraid that he would bring unnecessary trouble to Cen Li, and I didn't know how Cen Li would explain his identity to Mo Kongwan. He whispered: "Why don't you send me to a nearby inn, I won't leave, you can come to me anytime you need something."

Cen Li's face elongated all of a sudden.
