Who says sleep is not spiritual practice?

Chapter 45 Xu Erhu Brings Bad News
Snapped!
Yan Songyu's slap was not heavy.

But Lichun had never practiced martial arts, and his physical body was weak, not even the first grade acquired. After being beaten, his lips were broken immediately, blood dripped, and a large lump was swollen on his face.

But she didn't cry out.

Instead, he stared stubbornly at Yan Songyu, bit his lips, and stretched out the other side of his face:

"Eunuch Yan, if I keep refusing to agree, will he want you to keep fighting?"

Yan Songyu lowered his head slightly to apologize:
"Your Majesty said, the girl is stubborn by nature, one lesson is enough."

"As for the matter of giving the marriage, His Majesty's golden words cannot be changed."

"Ah."

Lichun smiled miserably and asked:

"I don't understand. He has so many adopted daughters for marriage, all of them are well-behaved and obedient, which one is not more suitable than me?"

"Why did you think of me who is far away in Bingzhou this time?"

Yan Songyu took out an externally applied wound medicine from his cuff, and stepped forward to apply the medicine for Lichun by himself:

"Girl, His Majesty attaches great importance to Fan Yu, so he didn't want to fool the adopted daughter with this marriage."

Li Chun's eyes were indifferent, and he retorted:

"Jingxi is also born of him!"

But Yan Songyu smiled lightly and said:

"Girl, this old slave has never called you Your Highness since he entered the door, but in the palace, this old slave had to bow to His Highness Jingxi when he saw His Highness. This is the difference between the two of you."

These words sounded so harsh to Lichun.

She couldn't help laughing at herself:

"That's right, her mother is the Queen of Chu, and her family is the prosperous Murong clan, but my mother is just a remnant of the previous dynasty who has been lurking in the palace for 20 years and wants to assassinate the emperor. point."

At this time, Yan Songyu had finished giving the medicine for Lichun.

I have to say that the medicine carried by the old eunuch was very effective. Within half an hour after applying it, the lump on Li Chun's face disappeared, and the skin was as smooth and tender as before, and even the ruptured wound at the corner of his mouth had scabbed over.

Then, he started chasing people:
"Girl, the old slave is going to rest."

Li Chun turned around and left the room without saying a word.

……

It is undoubtedly a great joy for the entire palace to refuse the North King to accept the golden pill and to continue his life.

The second wife, Jiang Jing, and Dr. Song rushed to King Jubei's bedroom as soon as they heard the news, weeping with joy.

Even the old housekeeper Xu Erhu quietly wiped away his tears, and ordered that each handyman and servant girl be paid an extra month's salary.

The entire palace was filled with the joy of surviving after a catastrophe.

But when the King of Beibei announced that he would choose a son and daughter to be his heir in the Winter Hunting Competition more than a month later, the second wife Jiang Jing's expression was not very good.

Because she saw Jiang Qingyu holding a sword in her hand——

The famous sword Shuoyue.

The famous sword that the King of the North has treasured for a long time is worth as much as the top three magical weapons in the Meteor Pavilion!
At the celebration banquet a few days ago, the second son Jiang Qingjian asked the North King to ask for a reward through the strength of wine. He only made one request, and what he wanted was this sword.

But the North King refused.

Not only refused, but also gave it to the fourth son Jiang Qingyu in a blink of an eye.

Combined with Jiang Qingyu's recent climb to Jiangshan, and the news that the position of the son will be decided in the winter hunting competition, the second wife Jiang Jing can't help feeling a little bit of crisis.

"The position of the son of the world can only belong to Qingjian."

"Whoever wants to fight will die."

……

When Jiang Qingyu returned to Ziyan Courtyard with the servant girl Xiaoman holding the famous sword Shuoyue in her hand, what she saw was Lichun who lied that she accidentally fell and broke her lip.

Jiang Qingyu, who knew Lichun's true origin, vaguely guessed something, and didn't expose her lie, but just glanced coldly at the room where the old eunuch Yan Songyu was.

He couldn't help cursing inwardly:
"Old eunuch, the servant girl of my son is reluctant to punish her, but you have such a heavy hand on the first day of your arrival?"

"Sooner or later, I will chop off your hands too!"

At the same time, Jiang Qingyu stretched out her hand and rubbed Lichun's lips, comfortingly said:
"Where did my sister bump into it? I'm going to order someone to destroy that place."

Li Chun's pretty face blushed, and she didn't dodge it, she just took a few glances at the famous sword Shuo Yue in Xiao Man's hand, and cursed with a smile:
"My lord, there are outsiders in the yard."

Unexpectedly, Jiang Qingyu intensified after hearing this, directly took Lichun's shoulders, and said in a domineering tone:

"What's wrong with outsiders? This is my territory!"

"Come on, I'll take you back to your room and give you the medicine myself."

"Xiao Man, you stand guard at the door, no eavesdropping or peeping is allowed!"

The little girl stuck out her tongue playfully:
"Young master, don't listen and don't look, how can people hold back?"

"or……"

"You knocked me out and took me back to the room to apply medicine. I, I believe in your son!"

Jiang Qingyu snorted coldly:
"Little girl, do you trust my fragile body?"

"Hmph, wait for you for another two years. After two years, I will show you what cruelty is!"

Xiaoman was so frightened that he immediately blocked the sword in front of him, and threatened without confidence:
"My lord, I practiced martial arts before I came to the palace, you can't beat me!"

"..."

Jiang Qingyu was speechless.

……

This day Jiang Qingyu slept very late, because of the presence of the old eunuch, he never dared to swim in the dark, for fear of being spotted by him.

After all, Yan Songyu is the second of the top ten eunuchs of the Chu State, and it is said that he may have touched the fourth rank of congenital.

So Jiang Qingyu spent the whole night comprehending the sword manual sealed in his memory by the old sword master, so that he could attract more sword energy into his body when he went to Qianjian Lake next time, so as to strengthen his physical body to the tenth rank of Houtian as soon as possible.

However, on the second day, Yan Songyu bid him farewell.

He said he was going to Bingzhou to visit some old friends.

But Jiang Qingyu, who personally killed Xu Xiaosi, knew in her heart that the old eunuch probably learned of Xu Xiaosi's death and went out to investigate the truth.

Jiang Qingyu wasn't too worried about this.

The torrential rain that night had already washed away most of the traces of the battle. The death of Xu Xiaosi and Xingsi seemed too coincidental, but it was hard to find any doubts.

As for the underworld...

It is true that ghosts and wild ghosts may leave loopholes in the process of gathering information, but he believes in the servant girl's ability to "Jingzhe" layout, and Yan Songyu will not trace the root cause to himself with just a little loophole.

Ziyan Courtyard.

As soon as Yan Songyu left, the old housekeeper Xu Erhu came outside the gate of the courtyard.

Xu Erhu brought bad news:

In the early hours of this morning, the Qiang cavalry that refused the North King's promise was attacked by a group of bandits a hundred miles away from the king's city, killing and injuring more than [-] people!
Fortunately, the captain of the Qiang cavalry captain who led the team was a congenital top-tier master and was extremely brave. He was still able to do a job well under the siege of three opponents of the same level, killing one and wounding two, which repelled this group of thieves!
Today, this Qiang cavalry is stationed at the foot of a hill outside the east gate, burying more than 100 dead Paoze.

After the king of rejecting the North got the news, he immediately ordered to send the army to escort the military doctor to treat the seriously injured.

But it was rejected by the Qiang people.

All the Qiang cavalry looked at the royal army with anger in their eyes.

The cavalry captain who led the team didn't say a word, but just took out the corpse of the innate first-grade bandit in public——

Someone recognized it.

This person is a lieutenant under the command of Jiang Qingzhu, the third lady of the Wangfu, named Dong Fei.
