"Then there will be General Lao Wang." Princess Xinyi did not dare to look at Wang Junlin, she lowered her head and said shyly.
Wang Junlin also found that it was inappropriate for him to stare at a princess who was about to get married, so he lowered his head and said, "This is what a humble job should do."
Pause for a while, and then said: "If the princess has nothing else to do, I will go down and prepare the medicinal materials first."
After speaking, Wang Junlin cupped his fists and bowed, turned and left.
Princess Xinyi stared at Wang Junlin's back in a daze, until the maid closed the door, then looked away, holding the prescription handed over by He Shanggong, her eyes brightened for a while, and there was a strange light flowing in her eyes, for a while Then he said: "Mommy, is he really that poisonous general? Why..."
After He Shanggong saw that Princess Xinyi actually met Wang Junlin, he became more energetic, and he was not as melancholy as before. , the rumors are not credible."
Princess Xinyi was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Mum, you said that if General Wang wiped out the Western Turks completely, would I not have to marry a savage from the Western Turks? .The old Turkic Khan died, and he wanted to marry the old Khan’s son, and the old Khan’s son died, and he wanted to marry his younger brother or grandson.”
He Shanggong stared at Princess Xinyi, with a look of relief and worry, and said: "Your Highness is right, if the Western Turks are destroyed, the princess does not need to marry the savages of the Western Turks. But , It is not easy to destroy the Western Turks."
Princess Xinyi did not answer, Wang Junlin's burly figure and reassuring eyes appeared in her mind.

Changsun Sheng was already past middle age, he had traveled a long distance and was already very tired, so he went down to rest after saying a few words. After Yu Juluo called Wang Junlin aside and made a serious confession, he brought two thousand soldiers back to Jincheng County that day. After all, he was the commander of the army in a state, and there were nearly 100,000 troops in the counties and counties under his command. Maybe stay in Gaotai City for a long time.
In the evening, Wang Junlin was going to have a banquet for his eldest grandson, father and son, but his eldest grandson Sheng refused to come because he was old and tired, so he only sent his son, eldest grandson Wuji, and several other officials to the banquet. Just about to get in touch with Changsun Wuji in depth.
The banquet was held in Chunyi Building, the largest brothel in Gaotai City. Except for Changsun Wuji, the civil and military officials of the other missions were either fearful, apprehensive, or sneering. , Zhou Hu, Wu San, Wu Si, Jiang Mulang, and Su Changqing, five captains, accompanied the wine. Wang Junlin also asked people to invite more than a dozen of the best girls from Chunyi Building, except for Wang Junlin himself and Changsun Wuji. , everyone has a girl next to them to entertain these people, and there are also singers in the field to accompany them.
There are no girls around Wang Junlin, it's not that he doesn't want to, but that whenever any girl approaches him, he will turn pale with fright and tremble when he speaks, as if his whole body is poisoned, which is really meaningless.
As for Changsun Wuji not wanting girls to accompany him, Wang Junlin didn't know the reason. Maybe it was because he saw that there was no girl around him, so he refused out of politeness, or maybe he didn't like this kind of tone at all.
"My virtuous brother seems to be very curious about me!" After the two gradually got acquainted, they began to address each other as brothers, and Changsun Wuji began to ask about last year's war, led by Wang Junlin, to destroy the city of Longxi. The course of the three battles of the night attack on the Turkic food and grass camp and the burning of Shuiquanguan. Wang Junlin was not exaggerating, nor was he modest, and told the eldest grandson Wuji the truth in a very plain language.
Changsun Wuji said with a smile: "Brother Wang doesn't know something. In today's world, who has never seen Brother Wang, who is not curious, after all, according to the rumors, you have blood-red eyes all the year round, you have fangs, and you are taller than you are." You are so tall, you have to drink a bowl of human blood every day. There are even rumors that the reason why the imperial court did not allow you to serve as a general in the hinterland of Guanzhong was because they were afraid that you would drink the blood of their own people, so they allowed you to be stationed at the border, just so that they could continue to harm the Turks. people and Tuyuhun people.”
"Hahahaha... This is really the first time I've heard these words." Wang Junlin couldn't help laughing out loud.
Changsun Wuji also laughed twice, and said: "There are many rumors about Brother Wang, and there are many more exaggerated than this. If Brother Wang is interested, I can tell you some more. "
Wang Junlin shook his head and said: "Forget it, let's not talk about it. Rumors only stop at the wise. Those who believe these rumors are just ignorant people who lack the ability to judge."
Changsun Wuji had a strange look on his face, and said: "It's good that rumors only stop with wise men, brother Wang's words are very reasonable."
"Come on, for this sentence, I offer a glass of wine to Brother Wang."
Wang Junlin, who was used to drinking liquor of fifty or sixty degrees in the later generations, had no feeling at all about the wines of more than ten degrees.
Changsun Wuji also has a good capacity for alcohol. After drinking the wine in the glass, he said: "Brother Wang has read books."
Wang Junlin said with a smile: "I have read it for a few years." He has spent more than half a year learning the ancient characters of this era, and even looked for the books that scholars like to read. Combined with the extra thousand years of historical knowledge of later generations, apart from not being able to compose poems and lyrics, whether it is experience, profound knowledge, or the logic of thinking about problems, it is far from the majority of people in this era. Can compare.
"Dare to ask who your brother Wang is from, but he doesn't say that he is a master of both civil and military skills, but he is still a master of poison." It can be seen that Changsun Wuji is extremely curious about Wang Junlin, and he wants to find out the details of him with all his heart.
Wang Junlin said: "I lived a secluded life in the mountains with my master since I was a child. The master is a strange person, so I learned a lot of things. Apart from martial arts, I read all kinds of books. In addition, the master has a He didn’t teach me the Poison Sutra. I learned it by myself while I was idle in the mountains. After my master passed away, I went out of the mountain. By chance, I joined the army and became a soldier in the Sui Dynasty. I have never tried it before. Using the power of poison, I didn’t want to try it out last year, and accidentally poisoned more than 10,000 enemy troops, broke Longxi City, and made great achievements.”
Wang Junlin casually said what he said to Yu Juluo before very skillfully, Changsun Wuji expressed emotion and longing, and said: "Brother Wang's master is really an unborn master."
That's right, Wang Junlin saw yearning in his eyes, and then he remembered that this guy was the ruthless person who planned the change of Xuanwu Gate.
"Oh! By the way, after the master left, I found a secret poison recipe from the master's belongings, but I don't know the words on it. Brother, learn from the ancients and the present, why don't you help me look." King's Landing said.
Changsun Wuji suddenly became interested, and said with bright eyes: "Young brother is respectful, it is better to obey, brother Wang, why not take it out now, let the younger brother have a look."
Wang Junlin took out the content copied from the animal skin scroll from his bosom, and handed it to Changsun Wuji. After the latter read it carefully, he lost his voice: "It turned out to be Zhong Dingwen. Could it be that Brother Wang's Poison Sutra is Antiquities handed down from the Zhou Dynasty?"
Wang Junlin was ecstatic when he heard the words. He has questioned all the scholars who have passed by Gaotai City for more than half a year for various reasons, but no one knows this kind of characters. It turned out to be the characters of the Zhou Dynasty, no wonder I didn't know a single word.
"My dear brother, do you know what these characters are?" Wang Junlin tried not to show himself too excited.
Changsun Wuji said: "What's so difficult about this, my younger brother can translate these characters into Chinese characters now."
The so-called Chinese characters are the characters that have been used since the Han Dynasty. Until the appearance of simplified characters in modern history, they basically did not change. Therefore, it has been called Chinese characters since then.
Wang Junlin immediately asked him to bring the pen and ink, and personally wrote the pen for Zhangsun Wuji. translate it.
Wang Junlin didn't look at it carefully, he took it up and dried it happily, and then called the guard at the door to put it away carefully.
The translated words were obviously messed up, but Changsun Wuji thought it was natural. After all, this was the secret of Wang Junlin's sect, so how could he show it to outsiders at will.
…
…
"Zhou Tian carried Dafa? What is this? It doesn't look like a secret method for practicing martial arts." Wang Junlin muttered to himself.
After the banquet, all the officials of the mission went back to the post to rest, and Changsun Wuji was also drunk by Wang Junlin, forcing a young girl to serve him. When Wang Junlin returned to his mansion in Gaotai City, he specifically asked no one to disturb him. He eagerly took out the animal skin scroll in the study and studied the contents of the animal skin scroll according to Changsun Wuji's translation.
"Dan is single, and one is single. There is no right way, so it is called Dan. The sky can be cleared, the earth can be peaceful, the valley can be full, and people can live forever. .”
"What kind of **** is this?" Wang Junlin was speechless after reading the first paragraph. How can he understand such specious, ambiguous, and abstract words? Even if he can understand what it means, he doesn't know how to cultivate at all.
"Maybe I'm thinking too much. This is not a way of cultivation at all." Wang Junlin was extremely disappointed. These two people can't forget what they cultivated. Now it seems that this kind of profound secret method may really exist, but it is not so easy to obtain.
Putting these unrealistic thoughts aside, Wang Junlin began to think about the possible dangers he and Changsun Sheng might encounter this time on their mission to the Western Turks, and how to deal with them. He had a plan and countermeasures in mind in advance.
Although he also thinks that Changsun Sheng's analysis is very reasonable, but there are accidents in everything. Who knows if those Turkic people will go crazy, so he has to make thorough preparations.
