Hidden Blade Chapter 5: Changan uneasy
Then everyone embarked on the road to Chang'an.
The road is still smooth, but what makes Xu Han a little depressed is that everyone looks at him with strange eyes.
There are all kinds of teasing, sigh, and envy, which makes Xu Han feel uncomfortable.
Qin Keqing avoided Xu Han everywhere, unable to tell whether he was angry or sad.
After a while of helplessness, Xu Han had to start to secretly examine his feelings for Qin Keqing and Ye Hongjian.
In life, there must be a decision. If you hold a sweet potato and think about an apple, it will be bad for yourself in the end, and it will be a disaster for others. Xu Han is not an indecisive generation, but this is a matter of men and women, it is really unclear and constant.
Rao is also a little bit distressed by Xu Han.
But yesterday...
Thinking of the absurdity of the early morning, Xu Han sitting on the carriage glared at Xuan'er, who was sleeping soundly beside him, and couldn't say the harshness that came to his lips. He sighed. If he told Ye Hongjian that Xuan'er did not know how to drag him to her room yesterday, he would inevitably be confronted with swords by the other party. With Ye Hongjian's temperament, Xu Han had no doubt that the other party did it. Come to such a thing.
After all, Ye Hongjian is Ye Chengtai’s daughter and half of the master’s disciple. In any case, she can’t get out of the grotesque vortex of Chang’an, but Qin Keqing is different, although the other party has already shown him his own Determined, but Xu Han really didn't want to see the other party in this muddy water.
Thinking of this, Xu Han made a decision in his heart.
He took a deep breath and secretly told himself that after going to Chang'an, he should find a suitable opportunity to discuss the matter with Qin Keqing.
......
The city under the league is only more than 80 miles away from Chang'an.
The group did not rush on purpose, but it was already dusk when they arrived at Chang'an City.
Xu Han arranged for the people to go to Tiance Mansion to take care of everything, and then troubled Mr. Lu to take a trip to Putian Palace, and handed the papers of Ming Ri Mian Sheng. This capital city is no better than those outside towns, the city is densely covered with Zhu Xian's eyes and ears. The news of their return to Chang'an is naturally concealed by Zhu Xian, and Xu Han has no intention of continuing to hide, so he simply explained it to him.
And he followed the agreement with Ye Hongjian this morning to Ningguohou's Mansion.
Of course, the two people's departure is unavoidable, and they attract a lot of teasing eyes from everyone.
......
The streets of Chang'an are wide and well-connected. They are cleaned by specific staff every day and they are spotlessly cleaned.
Although the night is getting dark, the pedestrians on the streets are always happy. The vendors on the streets and the wine shops in the alleys are booming.
It seems that the war in Dahuang City did not disturb this prosperous ancient city at all.
The two people walking in this city of Chang'an have their own thoughts, and the atmosphere is a little dull.
Ye Hongjian lowered her head and used her feet to measure the bluestone slab that paved the streets of Chang'an. She stepped on a strange rhythm, and every time she landed, she accurately landed on the center of the next slab.
Ninety-eight... Ninety-nine...
One hundred...
She counted silently in her mind until she dropped her feet on the hundredth bluestone slab.
The girl sighed. She turned her head to look at the young man beside her, who was still bowing her head. She was inexplicably angry.
"Why, is it so difficult to see my father for you?" Ye Hongjian asked dissatisfiedly.
"Huh?" At this moment, the young man raised his head as if he had just awakened from a dream, and it took a long time to react.
Seeing that Ye Hongjian's face was not depressed, he quickly explained: "No, I'm just thinking about something."
"What is more important than meeting my dad? Is it your Keqing girl? Can't bear it?" Ye Hongjian obviously didn't just let Xu Han's plan go, she said at that time, the question Like a series of cannonballs, Xu Han blasted one after another.
Xu Han looked sideways at the bulging Ye Hongjian. He seemed to have never seen her show such an expression. He secretly thought that she was a little pretty, so naturally he took a second look.
But Ye Hongjian was a little uncomfortable by his gaze, a flush of flush appeared on her cheeks, and she rolled her head in panic.
Xu Han smiled when she saw her doing this.
"I'm just wondering if it's a bit wrong for us to meet the old man so empty-handed."
Hearing the words, Ye Hong was taken aback for a moment, and then the flush on her face climbed upward again, and her ears became crimson in a blink of an eye.
After a while, she muttered in her inaudible voice: "Greasy mouth and tongue."
Then he walked quickly towards the direction of Ningguohou's Mansion.
From beginning to end, Xu Han never let Xu Han see her face at the moment.
But Xu Han believed that Ye Hongjian's face should be as sweet as a ripe apple at this moment.
......
Chang'an City is a place where dragons and tigers live.
A prince who walks out of a courtyard at random may be the son of a certain minister in the court, or a nobleman who has been close relatives with a prince within three generations.
The more prominent officials are more noble, so naturally there will be more taboos.
No matter who can't be offended, no matter where to go, there are always particulars.
For example, the mansion gate made of black wood in front of me is one of the taboos in the city of Chang'an.
The mansion gate is not big, the black wood in the whole body almost blends him with the night, and the looming candlelight in the courtyard does not make this mansion gate a little more of the smell of fireworks, but embellish it like it is. Ghosts are generally deep and terrifying.
This appearance naturally violated some people's taboos.
But in the final analysis, there is only one reason why the kings and suns of Chang'an really avoid them like tigers.
This mansion gate...
The last name is wish.
To the people of Chang'an City, Zhu Xian is a very mysterious person.
Mysterious enough that most people have heard of his name and those wicked deeds.
Some people say that he was born with three heads and six arms, with fire-breathing eyes and sharp teeth in his mouth.
Some people also say that he is a spy of the monster race, a eclipse virgin, and a young boy at night.
Some people even say that he is the reincarnation of an evil dragon, swallowing great luck, and has become a real dragon.
The spread of the people is mysterious, but it is only used for after-dinner talks. Perhaps in addition to more capital for talking with people, Zhu Dashouzuo's greatest reuse of them is to stop crying in the night. Children.
It's just that, perhaps they couldn't think of it, this almost demonized Zhu first seat, seemed to be just a middle-aged man who looked ordinary to the extreme.
At this moment, he is wearing a black python robe. The python has four legs and four claws, which looks like a real dragon. There is a little white snow hidden in the black hair on his head, and there is no lack of wrinkles on his face, which makes him look a little older than he should be.
"Did you find it? Where did Yuwen's dragon gas fall?" His voice sounded at that time, and his low voice almost blended with the night, making it difficult to distinguish the sound from The spit out of his mouth still rose from an unknown corner.
The candle in the mansion gate is not bright, but it is enough to see things.
A Confucian student who also wore a black robe came to Zhu Xian as if he appeared out of thin air.
"The dragon spirit of Emperor Taiyuan was troubled by the defeat of the Dahuang City~IndoMTL.com~ has dropped to a light blue color, but if the situation in Jizhou can be stabilized in time, it may improve. The dragon spirit of King Yu It's still not light yellow. As for the Yuwen clan king of each state, the letter Wang Yuwencheng who sits on half of Qingzhou is not dark yellow. Even adding these together does not make up the almost red dragon gas of the royal family..."
The Confucian student said so, obviously he was also quite puzzled.
"Could it be possible that this dragon spirit can be more out of thin air?" Zhu Xian frowned, his appearance was also very ordinary, without the murderous intent of the emperor's anger, nor the domineering and aggressive when staring at Xiaoxiong. It's more like the farmer who guards his one-acre three-quarters of land, secretly worrying about the harvest after autumn.
"This is naturally impossible." The black robe scholar's expression changed, and he hurriedly said: "I think about it next, I am afraid there is only one reason for this situation..."
Speaking of this, the scholar paused, seemingly worried, but when he felt the gaze cast by the first Zhu Zuo, he did not hesitate, and hurriedly said: "We have missed someone... ."
"Is someone missing?" Zhu Xian repeated this, as if something was ringing at that time, his eyes condensed. "You mean the one more than ten years..."
"But even if he is still alive, how can he have so much dragon energy..." Zhu Xian's thoughts were so careful that he quickly denied the Confucian scholar's guess.
"If someone was lucky enough to survive in the world, he would naturally not have so much dragon energy. But if he did, he did not live, but lived very well, to the point where he could control the situation in the Great Zhou Dynasty. ..." The black robe scholar said softly at that time.
"Huh? You mean..." Zhu Xian's eyes condensed at that time.
He stood up, took a deep look at the scholar, and said in a deep voice: "Go, let me check the hairy boy who suddenly appeared!"
