Invincible at the beginning: I seek the world in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 43, Guarding the West Wing Alone

In Tianwang City, there is a desolate path, the westerly wind blows suddenly, black crows cry, the shops on both sides are covered with dust, most of the houses and courtyards are dilapidated, and there are few people.

Day after day, only the watchmen give this place a rare human touch.

In a mansion, the high courtyard walls are piled up with yellow mud, and a big locust tree that is about to wither and die sticks out its head.

It looks lifeless on the outside, but in fact there is a universe inside.

The ground is paved with blue bricks, and the courtyard is full of bamboo, wintersweet, ponds, and lotus, which are full of vitality and spring.

Cyan glazed tiles, scarlet pillars, two eunuchs guarding the gate, five or six court ladies who are deaf and aphasic shuttle back and forth.

Huang Mengjue was imprisoned here by the Prison of Li, practicing swordsmanship and internal strength every day, hoping to break through the ninth rank as soon as possible and break out of Tianwang City.

In the past few days, she had been thinking hard, and only His Majesty could get the Chief of Rites to take action.

Now, even her father can't save her, so she can only strive for self-improvement and take her relatives away.

After all, Huang Mengjue didn't know about the marriage contract.

Jiang Wangsheng went to the edge of the city and met Cui Ke and the members of the Cui family who survived the disaster.

Zuoyou, a doctor from the Ministry of War, visits Jiangfu.

The moon is white and the wind is clear, and everything is silent.

Huang Mengjue was cultivating his internal strength, when his ears moved suddenly, he heard a sound at the door, and hurriedly picked up the Mercy Sword.

She was certain that someone of great status must have come to tell her something.

As soon as that person entered, she held her hostage with a sword and forced them to let her go.

Pushing open the door, the sword's edge strikes straight through the door.

Jiang Wangsheng's long hair fluttered, and the hairpin fell to the ground, spreading over his shoulders like a waterfall of black silk like ink.

The tip of the sword stayed three inches before the bridge of the young man's nose.

"You, why are you here?"

Jiang Wangsheng gently moved his sword away and said, "Follow me."

"Okay." Huang Mengjue did not hesitate.

The two went outside the city.

Jiang Wangsheng said, "To make a long story short, you have been spotted."

"what?"

Jiang Wangsheng coughed and said, "Beili proposed a marriage alliance with Xichu. The marriage partners are you and Yun Yuyan. Your Majesty wants to facilitate this."

"Why? Why did you fall in love with me? I don't know that group of people!" Huang Mengjue shouted softly, poking his neck.

"Maybe he fell in love with the sword armor old man." Jiang Wangsheng speculated.

Huang Mengjue looked bewildered, and murmured: "How could this be?"

"Don't talk so much! You go east now and live in the nearest city temporarily." Jiang Wangsheng asked.

"Aren't you afraid of His Majesty's punishment when you come to save me? Then the Jiang family will die." Huang Mengjue hesitated to speak, his eyes widened.

She suddenly thought of something in her heart, and she couldn't help feeling a little moved and a little nervous.

Jiang Wangsheng said: "I went to see the old prime minister and got permission. You leave quickly, I'm afraid you have been discovered by now."

"Aren't you with me?" Huang Mengjue subconsciously grabbed his sleeve.

Jiang Wangsheng was stunned.

As the evening breeze passed by, time passed quietly, as if at this moment, she had fallen into an eternal reincarnation.

Jiang Wangsheng adjusted his breathing and heartbeat, and hurriedly said: "I still want to take Yun Yuyan away."

After finishing speaking, he added another sentence: "It's the old prime minister's entrustment."

"Oh, yes." Huang Mengjue blinked, her long eyelashes shaking, as if expressing her dissatisfaction.

Royal Palace
Jiang Wangsheng changed into night clothes and was about to go to Yun Yuyan's palace, but he met an old acquaintance on the way.

The eldest princess, Yun Jinyi.

She was still as lazy and relaxed as ever.

Jiang Wangsheng's eyes were complicated, his heart was beating continuously, one face after another flashed in his mind, the first one was that woman - He Wenzhou.

Jiang Wangsheng was thinking, not missing.

Negligently, he actually forgot to hide his footsteps.

Yun Jinyi didn't turn her head back, and said, "It's been a long time, and I've been thinking about who He Wenzhou is."

Jiang Wangsheng felt as if spring thunder exploded in his ears, he frowned, stared at her back, and asked, "How do you know it's me?"

"In the whole world, you are the only one who is so bold. Coming to the harem is like looking into a garden." Yun Jinyi sneered.

Jiang Wangsheng didn't shy away from it, and sat beside her, "It's a girl I knew when I was young."

"When you were young? How old are you this year?" Yun Jinyi joked.

"Uh..." Jiang Wangsheng was a little embarrassed.If it were someone else, he would have already said a few words.

But when he faced Yun Jinyi, he always felt guilt and self-blame in his heart, so he always pay attention and be careful every step of the way.

Yun Jinyi said: "You came here for Yuyan, right?"

"Yes." Jiang Wangsheng said bluntly.

Yun Jinyi murmured: "My brother, what is he thinking now, I don't know anymore."

"You like that woman named He Wenzhou very much?" Yun Jinyi asked.

Jiang Wangsheng replied: "Once"

"Then you went to find Yu Yan, what are you doing here?" Yun Jinyi asked.

Jiang Wangsheng pursed his lips and refused to speak for a long time.

"You'd better forget what happened back then forever." The eldest princess said in a gloomy tone, full of murderous intent.

"Sorry, I was."

"I don't blame you, I was plotted against." The eldest princess closed her eyes, thinking in her mind.

Jiang Wangsheng wanted to say something else, but the eldest princess immediately said, "Let's go!"

Strong tone.

Jiang Wangsheng could only leave angrily.

He thought, since they are all here, why not take a look at Yunwenxi by the way.

The harem is remote.

This place is still as usual, empty and lonely.

The lonely Yun Wenxi has only one loyal maid who keeps her company.

Yun Wenxi opened his eyes, "He's finally here."

"What?" The maid froze.

Yun Wenxi turned around, just in time to look at Jiang Wangsheng who had landed on the ground.

"Bold!" The maid assumed an offensive posture and was about to make a move when Yun Wenxi held her down.

Yun Wenxi explained: "He is my good friend."

"Friend? Your Highness, when did you have such a friend?" The maid was surprised.

Yun Wenxi smiled faintly.

Jiang Wangsheng said, "I haven't seen you for such a long time, and my complexion has improved a lot."

"Yes."

Jiang Wangsheng stepped forward and breathed out a ray of true energy for him.

Yun Wenxi's eyelashes trembled slightly, "It seems to be stronger than before."

"Yes, there has been a breakthrough." Jiang Wangsheng answered honestly.

An earthen jar was placed on the table, which was very strange.

Jiang Wangsheng asked: "Is this a custom in your family?"

Yun Wenxi shook his head, "It's my cat."

Jiang Wangsheng couldn't help but glance at her.

The maid said angrily: "His Royal Highness raised a very kind cat a few days ago. When he was in a better mood, his condition naturally improved a lot. As a result."

The maid pouted and stopped talking.

Yun Wenxi chuckled, "He was killed, thrown into a crock pot that was on fire, and cooked alive to death."

Jiang Wangsheng clicked his tongue, not knowing what to say.

"Since you are His Highness's friend, then help her." The maid hurriedly said.

Yun Wenxi waved his hand, "No need."

After a while, she continued, "It's a group of court ladies with little knowledge, so don't pay attention to them."

Yun Wenxi stroked the crock lightly, and whispered the cat's name.

If it was an ordinary person, at this moment, I am afraid that I am crying in grief, gnashing my teeth, vowing to avenge my beloved pet.

But Yun Wenxi was terribly calm.

Do not erupt in silence, but perish in silence.

"Your Highness, Your Highness?"

"Didn't I say it? Here, you don't need to be called by any respectful title, just call me by my name." Yun Wenxi suddenly showed a playful look, "You must have forgotten my name."

"How could it be. Wenxi, I'm sorry." Jiang Wangsheng squeezed out a few words like jumping beans.

Yun Wenxi stared at the earthen jar, with his back to Jiang Wangsheng, his eyes were extremely cold and murderous.
