Chen Jianzhai's long silence made the man with the saber laugh. He no longer had the patience to continue waiting. He turned his head and told the woman to go. He squeezed the horse's belly and the two of them rode past Chen Jianzhai. Chen Jianzhai did not stop them from leaving. He slowly turned his horse around and stared at the two figures who were heading into Liangzhou.
They were Hsu Fengnian and Jiang Ni, who had just entered Youzhou from outside Ji Bei Pass.
Jiang Ni glanced at Hsu Fengnian without showing any expression. There were many versions of the Fish-dragon Gang's sudden appearance in the Jianghu of the Central Plains. She knew that when he went to Beimang, he seemed to have come out with a group of Fish-dragon Gang members.
Hsu Fengnian, who had guessed her thoughts, smiled and said, "When I was young, I didn't have to worry about life and death. When I was younger, I often heard my mother telling me that the girls in the world were cute and pitiful, and that I should take care of them. So, I always thought, why wouldn't I like such a good girl? If I could have her, why wouldn't I? In the past, I really liked to collect the ancient people's rare calligraphy. For example, I spent a lot of money to collect the 'Ten Li Spring Breeze Calligraphy', 'Heavy Rain Relieving the Summer Heat Calligraphy', 'High Branch Autumn Cicada Calligraphy', and 'Early Clear Snow Calligraphy', this set of calligraphy of the four seasons. Even the 'Frost Descends Calligraphy', this set of calligraphy of the 24 solar terms, was only three short. At that time, I only cared about liking the women I liked, and they had to like me. I hoped that they would be like those precious and exclusive copybooks, all in my Wutong Courtyard. That way, the copybooks could be preserved well, without wind, rain, and insects, and the women could live without worries, without being homeless. "
Jiang Ni clicked her tongue and said, "I think Gu Jiantang was secretly happy when he wanted to help you become the Emperor. Once you become the Emperor, you will be able to have three palaces and six courtyards. The officials will cry and beg for help in finding concubines, and then they will say that this is inappropriate and happily accept it. What four seasons and twenty solar terms posts? Even a hundred posts are too few. "
It was rare that Xu Fengnian did not argue with her. He raised his head and squinted his eyes, as if he was feeling the coolness of the hazy drizzle. He said to himself, "Later, I found that all the women in the world who are worthy of my affection can live well without me. Perhaps they can even live better without me. No matter how chaotic the world outside Wutong Courtyard was, it was not necessarily worse than that small courtyard with no wind or rain and walls on all sides. How could the notes of those inanimate objects? How could he confine them to Wutong Courtyard or Qing Liang Mountain like a pavilion? Tidehark is big, but Jianghu is even bigger. It was only later that I realized that if I could start over again, I would probably still like them in my heart, but I definitely wouldn't flirt with them anymore. For example, Xuanyuan Qingfeng of the Great Snow Plains was living a carefree life. Yu Youwei was also living a carefree life as Teacher Ji Shang in Shangyin Academy. But there are some people I do not regret. For example, I brought Chen Yu to Beiliang and saved Zhao Fengya from Great An City. I did not have any bad thoughts about them. I just wanted them to live for themselves. "
Jiang Ni said angrily, "You are right. But I know that I can't outtalk you!"
Hsu Fengnian quickly changed the topic. He sighed, "If your Chessman Waiting for the Imperial Edict could have held real power in Da Chu's army earlier, instead of staying in a corner south of Guangling River, my father might not have been able to win the Battle of the Western Wall. At that time, both sides were fighting to see whose last breath was gone first. If Cao Changqing took over Ye Baikui's position, Da Chu's last breath would still be there. This time, my Master, Cao Zhangqing, and you were the reason why I was able to come to an agreement with Wang Sui and finally connect the entire Liao, Northern Ji, Northern Liang, and Western Regions together. The three of you have contributed greatly. Under this situation, Jiaodong Prince Zhao Sui, Huai Jiedushi Cai Nan, Administrator Han Lin, and Ji Zhou's Deputy General Han Fang will also become important figures. Of course, there are also Yu Luandao, Kou Jianghuai, Xie Xibian, Xu Huang, and other foreigners from Beiliang. As for the Fish-dragon Gang, maybe they will play a role in the future. But if the battle reaches the point where the Fish-dragon Gang needs to go to the battlefield after the young adults in Liuzhou, it means that both sides in Liang Mang have suffered great losses. "
Jiang Ni did not have time to mourn the death of his Chessman Waiting for the Imperial Edict. He said worriedly, "There are so many barbarians in Beimang."
Hsu Fengnian laughed involuntarily. "Yes, there are many. But it's not like I don't have a backup plan in Beimang. Just you wait. As long as Beimang can't take Beiliu City in one go, I can set their backyard on fire. "
As a result, Jiang Ni asked an irrelevant question. "That Chen Yu, is she very beautiful?"
Hsu Fengnian grimaced and pretended to be stupid. He did not answer this question. Some words were wrong the moment you opened your mouth. The more you spoke, the more mistakes you would make.
Jiang Ni seemed to be talking to himself. "How beautiful is this woman who was called a beauty by Yan Zhi who was hiding a mistress in a golden house? If I have the chance, I must pay my respects to her. Alas, I'm afraid I'll feel ashamed when the time comes. "
Hsu Fengnian suddenly turned his head and said, "Although I know this request is too much and you won't be happy when you hear it, I still have to say it. If one day I'm not here, you take them away from Beiliang. The farther the better."
Jiang Ni's face was full of anger. He said bluntly, "I can't do it!"
This answer was completely within Hsu Fengnian's expectations. As a result, he did not show any strange expression.
Hsu Fengnian rubbed his stubbled chin and said self-mockingly, "When I think about how if I die on the battlefield, I won't be able to see you guys again, I feel very depressed."
After teasing, Hsu Fengnian's expression gradually became serious.
Wherever there were shining spears and armored horses, there would inevitably be corpses.
After this year's spring, at most there would be a relatively peaceful summer. When the autumn wind gradually rose, there would probably be people dying outside Liangzhou Pass and all of Liuzhou. It would be too late to collect the corpses.
Of the four grandmasters of martial arts, apart from the carefree Peach Blossom Sword God Đồng Thái, West Chu had Cao Changqing, Beimang had Tuoba Bodhisattva, and Beiliang had Hsu Fengnian.
The last three were all people who would die if they lost a great battle.
At this time, Hsu Fengnian heard the little mud man say something that he would never have thought of even if he cracked his head.
Her words were not very auspicious, but her tone was very resolute.
"If that day really comes, then wherever Hsu Fengnian's corpse is, I will stand there!"
