From the beginning to the end, the King of Jing An, Zhao Heng, never mentioned the princess consort Pei Nanwei.
It was true that nobles were emotionless and thinner than paper.
After Hsu Fengnian dismounted, he approached the corpses of the Beiliang light cavalry and the wounded. He stuck the spear into the ground and walked to a young cavalryman whose wound had been personally bandaged by Yuan Meng. He squatted down and took over Yuan Meng's work. All the light cavalry could clearly see that His Royal Highness's movements were skillful, especially when he lowered his head and bit the knot tightly. Even Great Halberd Ning Emei was moved. They had some understanding of His Royal Highness's nature on their journey. He had risked his life to save people at the gates of hell, but after that, he had never been courteous to anyone on the ship. Later on, during the battle with the Qingzhou navy, he had led the charge. Did he shrink back at all and damage the spirit of the Beiliang army? Even the King of Jing An's son was thrown into the water like a drowning dog! Who would dare to say that if he had been there, he would have hung the Deputy Commandant of the Eastern Forbidden City from Gu Jiantang's old subordinates on the city wall?
Today, not to mention how domineering he was when he used his blade to save himself, the Phoenix battalion was shocked by his amazing blade skills. Just now, he had personally led 80 cavalrymen to face 600 heavy cavalry and even stabbed the Qingzhou general to death with his spear!
Before the battle, he only said that he was going to draw his blade. After the battle, he only said that he was going to withdraw his blade. How similar was this temperament to the King of Beiliang?!
And now, he was silently bandaging the wounds of a small cavalryman whose status was thousands of miles away. When did he say anything pretentious?!
Hsu Fengnian stood up and said softly to the cavalryman whose eyes were red, "I know your name. You are Wang Chong. When I was practicing my blade skills at the bow of the ship on the Spring God Lake, you were on guard duty."
Hsu Fengnian paused for a moment and said, "At that time, the one who was on night duty with you was called Lin Heng. He died in battle, stabbed to death by Wang Mingyin's halberd. I remember when you were quietly arguing with him at the bow of the ship, Lin Heng spoke up for me, saying that I didn't practice the saber for show. It's a pity that he died."
Hsu Fengnian stood up and took out the Instant Spear. He walked towards the carriage and said calmly, "I hope I won't die again."
More than ninety white horses were loyal to him. Regardless of whether they were injured or not, they all knelt down and said in a deep voice, "The Phoenix Battalion is willing to fight to the death for His Royal Highness! Don't retreat! "
In the distance, Princess Jing 'an Pei Nanwei's face was pale and her expression was complicated.

At the edge of the scattered cottages in the reed marsh, an old man stood up and left. He grabbed a handful of grass that could be found everywhere and used for divination. This was a lost ancient divination method. Grass could be picked anywhere, but not everyone could use divination to see the secrets of heaven. Therefore, among the eight ancient treasures, including the tortoiseshell, divination was the easiest way to get started, but the hardest way to get the Dao. The old man who looked like a scholar seemed to casually tear the grass again and again, throwing it all over the ground. As he walked out of the reed marsh, he coincidentally bumped into a young man who was walking out of the dense reed from another place. Behind him was a talisman general in red armor who looked like a celestial soldier.
The young man was neither angry nor happy, only muttering something to himself. When he saw the old man, he was not on guard at first, but he was afraid that the puppet behind him would scare the unrelated people. After carefully sizing him up, he let out a sigh of relief and smiled brilliantly, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. He seemed harmless. He stopped, obviously wanting to let the old man go first. It was hard to say whether he loved the young, but he was full of respect for the old man. The old man did not seem to take it to heart. When they brushed past each other, he said softly, "Zhao Kai, did your mother tell you that before she gave birth to you, she dreamed that the sky opened up and four celestial beings arrived with the sun in their hands? Believe it or not, when you were born, This Old Man saw with his own eyes that the red sun rose in the night and the red light surrounded the room. As for the white snake you killed when you were six years old, it was rumored to be the young son of the White Emperor, but it was fake. It was just to prove that the Red Emperor of the Imperial Astronomer killed the white dragon. This Old Man deliberately teased that old fool Nan Huaiyu. "
Zhao Kai was dumbstruck with his mouth wide open. He then trotted behind the old scholar and asked with a smile, "Old Mister, you know my mother?"
The old man chuckled and joked, "Don't worry, I'm not your grandfather."
Zhao Kai did not know whether to laugh or cry. He waved his hand to hide the red armor that could defeat four golden armor. He was not the least bit afraid that the mysterious old man had ulterior motives. He said shamelessly, "It's good that you're my grandfather. Old Mister, why don't you tell me about my mother's past? "
The old man did not stop walking and shook his head, "It's full of sad and tragic events. What's there to say and what's there to hear? Stories are stories of the past. It's useless to talk about them. "
Zhao Kai flattered, "Hey, Old Mister is really knowledgeable. No wonder the Southern Supervisor was deceived. This explanation of the story is really interesting! "
The old man laughed and scolded, "You little brat, you still don't know that Nan Huaiyu's surname is Nan Huai and not Nan. That old guy couldn't wait to give his granddaughter to you."
Zhao Kai exclaimed and blushed with shame, "I really didn't know that the Southern Supervisor's surname is Nan Huai. There's such a strange surname?"
The old man waved his hand and said bluntly, "Stay away from This Old Man. You little brat, your aura is too strong. Don't make This Old Man unable to play chess in the future. In the past twenty years, only a little girl with the surname Jiang can surpass you in terms of Providence in the world. "
Zhao Kai still acted as if he did not have any ulterior motives. He shamelessly followed behind the old man as if he had picked up a treasure on the road.
