The bracelet was separated from the snow-white wrist. In Xu Qi'an's eyes, the ordinary-looking older woman's appearance was like a reflection in the water. After a change, she showed her original appearance, which belonged to her.
Her eyes are round and charming, reflecting the firelight, like a shallow lake soaked in bright gems, crystal clear and moving.
She raised her head shyly and timidly, her eyelashes trembling slightly, carrying a sense of confusing beauty.
Her lips are full and ruddy, and the corners of her mouth are as delicate as engraved, like the most alluring cherry, luring men to kiss her.
She is as beautiful as she is beautiful, but her temperament and grace are even better, just like the fairy ladies on the picture scroll.
""
Xu Qi'an has seen stunning beauties before, and he also knows that Princess Zhenbei is known as the number one beauty in Dafeng, so she naturally has her advantages.
However, Xu Qi'an still felt a strong sense of amazement when he actually saw the legendary No. 1 beauty in Dafeng. A poem naturally came to mind:
? Clouds think about clothes and flowers, and spring breeze blows Revlon.
If you don't meet at the top of Qunyu Mountain, you will meet at Yaotai under the moon.
"Return, give it back to me" She used a crying and pleading voice.
Xu Qi'an looked at her silently, did not continue to tease, and passed the string over.
The princess snatched it away and put it on again. There was another wave of light and shadow shaking, and she became an ordinary old aunt again.
In his early thirties, his facial features are mediocre and his temperament is ordinary.
The princess touched her face, and breathed a sigh of relief, then hid her right hand wearing the bracelet tightly behind her back, stepped back step by step, and looked at Xu Qi'an vigilantly.
She knows that her beauty is an irresistible temptation for men.
In this world, she has only met two men who can resist temptation and ignore her. One is Emperor Yuan Jing who is obsessed with cultivating Taoism and whose longevity is above all else.
One is Duke Huai who is obsessed with martial arts and has other plans for her.
As for Xu Qi'an, in the princess's inherent impression of him, the labels on him are: young hero; womanizer.
It is rumored that this person hangs around the Jiaofang Division all day long, and has deep entanglements with many oirans. Young heroes and unruly romance complement each other, and they are often talked about.
But what the princess is most afraid of is a womanizer.
This is too beautiful, no, it's not a question of whether she is beautiful or not, she is really the kind of rare woman who reminds me of my first love In Xu Qi'an's mind, this one from the previous life appeared stem.
He thinks it's very appropriate, and a princess is beautiful if she is beautiful, but what really makes Xu Qi'an feel struck by lightning is the unique charm on her body, which can touch the softness of a man's heart.
Is this the number one beauty in Dabong? Oh, interesting woman.
Xu Qi'an held the branch, stirred the bonfire, did not look at the vigilant and vigilant princess, looked at the fire, and said:
"This bracelet is the one I won by throwing pots for you. It has the effect of shielding breath and changing appearance."
The princess was slightly taken aback, thinking of the changes before and after she took off the bracelet, thinking that he had deduced it based on this, she nodded.
Xu Qi'an continued: "I heard that Princess Zhenbei is the number one beauty in Dafeng. I was not convinced at first, but now that I see your true face I can only sigh with emotion: You deserve it."
Princess Liu frowned lightly, "Not convinced?"
If other women said so, the princess thought she was jealous, but it was reasonable. But it seemed strange that these words came from a man's mouth.
Xu Qi'an nodded: "Because I think that in my pond the women I know are all outstanding beauties, with different beauty and appearance, just like a hundred flowers competing for beauty. The so-called princess is just an equally delicate and beautiful flower. flower."
But he has to admit that in the alluring appearance that was just a flash in the pan, this princess showed a very strong femininity.
Even though he has been bombarded for a long time, although he is not fascinated, he just had a momentary impulse, the impulse of male instinct.
Hearing this, the princess sneered.
How can this woman who is seduced by a womanizer be compared with her? The oiran in the church is certainly beautiful, but it would be a bit insulting to compare those prostitutes with her.
In the capital, the concubine felt that Emperor Yuan Jing's eldest daughter and second daughter could barely serve as her foil. When the national teacher Luo Yuheng was the most charming, she could compete with her, but most of the time she was not as good.
As for the other women, she had either never seen them before, or they were beautiful but of low status.
The capital city is a mountain, and the princess is Dugu Qiubai on the top of the mountain. With a light glance, she can at most see the heads of Huaiqing and Lin'an. occasionallyHe explained: "This is a county adjacent to Chuzhou and Jiangzhou. There is a dark man trained by a watchman. I want to go to him first to find out information, and then gradually go deep into Chuzhou."
The case of Xuetu Sanqianli is complicated and confusing, and it seems that there are other secrets. Under such a background, Xu Qi'an believes that it is the right choice to investigate the case secretly.
If you are too high-profile, you will put yourself and your companions in a dangerous situation.
The mission led by Yang Yan is a cover on the surface.
? A steady and steady plan The princess nodded slightly, and asked again: "Where did those things go?"
"I want you to take care of it." Xu Qi'an scolded her mercilessly.
The two continued on the road, avoiding official roads, taking mountain trails, field ridges, or directly crossing mountains and ridges.
For a whole day, a certain stingy woman didn't speak a word to him again.
It is also good to take the mountain road. The scenery along the way is not bad, with green mountains, green waters, and long white clouds.
Occasionally, you can see the green pine on the proud cliff, which is as graceful as a cover. You can also see wild flowers blooming on the roadside, simple and tough.
Xu Qi'an is a person who cherishes beauty and beauty, he walks slowly, and occasionally stops, picks a place with beautiful scenery, and rests leisurely for half an hour.
Tell her about your fish farming experience, and often the princess sneers with disdain
After half a day, the mission entered the northern border and arrived in a city called Wanzhou.
Wanzhou is a small state, smaller than Dabi County. The land in Wanzhou is fertile and suitable for farming. It is one of the granaries of Chuzhou.
The architectural style of this place is not much different from that of the capital in the Central Plains, but the scale is not the same, and because there is no wharf nearby, the degree of prosperity is limited.
After Yang Yan presented the imperial documents, the highest general at the city gate, the centurion, personally led them to the post station.
Just after the mission rested at the post station, Yang Yan took a hot bath and was about to sit down and drink tea when the governor of Wanzhou came.
The Zhizhou master's surname is Niu, but his physique does not match the word "Niu". He is tall and thin, with a goatee beard, wearing a green robe embroidered with egrets, and there are two government officials behind him.
"The lower officials don't know how many adults are here, some are far away to welcome, some are far away to welcome"
Niu Zhizhou's attitude was extremely humble. After meeting with the Prime Minister of Dali Temple, the two censors, and Yang Yan, he asked, "Dare to ask, what are the adults here?"
? Yang Yan was not good at official communication, so he didn't answer.
The Dali Temple Prime Minister took out the document that he had prepared long ago, handed it over with a smile on his face, and began to call Zhizhou brother and brother in a few words.
After Niu Zhizhou finished greeting with the Prime Minister of Dali Temple, he unfolded the Chinese book in his hand and read it carefully.
After reading the document, Niu Zhizhou had an extremely strange expression, and even felt that it was absurd. He scanned the crowd and asked tentatively, "May I ask, who is Xu Yinluo?"
The Prime Minister of Dali Temple sighed and said sadly: "The mission was ambushed by the enemy on the way. Xu Yinluo was seriously injured to protect everyone. We have sent people back to the capital."
Niu Zhizhou turned pale with shock: "There is such a thing? Where are the thieves who dare to ambush the imperial mission, it is simply lawless."
The censor surnamed Liu waved his hand and said: "It's okay not to mention this matter, Mr. Niu, I'm here to investigate the case, and I just have something to ask."
Niu Zhizhou hurriedly bowed: "My lord, please."
Liu Yushi said in a deep voice: "How is the battle in Chuzhou?"
Hearing this, Niu Zhizhou sighed, and said: "Last year, there was heavy snowfall in the north, and countless livestock froze to death. Since the spring of this year, they have often invaded the border, burning, killing and looting along the way.
"Fortunately, the king of Zhenbei has many soldiers and generals, and not a single city has been lost. The barbarians did not dare to go deep into Chuzhou, and they only pitied the people near the border."
Not all the people lived in the city, those who were plundered by the barbarians were the people in the villages and towns.
Everyone in the mission looked at each other, and Chen Butou of the Ministry of Punishment frowned and said, "Where did the bloody massacre happen for three thousand miles?"
Niu Zhizhou spread his hands with a wry smile, and said, "This is simply a fantasy. You should know that Chuzhou is only 8,000 miles away. If there is a massacre of 3,000 miles, then the officials can still stand here and fight with each other." adults talk?"
Liu Yushi sneered: "Everyone is a scholar, so Niu Zhizhou don't want to play such clever tricks."
"Three Thousand Miles of Blood Slaughter" is an allusion. It originated from the Warring States period in ancient times.
Later generations cited it as an allusion to describe large-scale killings and cruelty.
Although the barbarians harassed the people on the border, burned, killed and looted, the Tang newspaper sent back to the north by the king of Zhenbei only said that the barbarians harassed the border, but they had been repelled by his troops, and the good news continued.
If the barbarians really committed the atrocities of "blood massacre for three thousand miles", it would be a serious dereliction of duty by King Zhenbei who lied about his military situation
