The short-lived ghost of the Xie family has lived a long life

Chapter 112
It's a moment.

The sky was still dark.

In the sound of the monk's morning sermon chanting, the six energetic people left the Guanyin Temple on horseback.

And this moment.

The first stick of incense for the faithful men and women has not been lit yet!

According to Mr. Pei's knowledge, if you grit your teeth on the five-day journey, you only need to rest two or three times and you can finish it in one breath.

Unexpectedly, there are almost no flat official roads on this road, and we need to climb over mountains and ridges. The speed cannot be increased at all, but it is even more tiring.

Look at Yan Sanhe's master and servant again.

Not to mention the non-human Li Daxia, Yan Shenpo was obviously not feeling well, but she climbed up the mountain with flying colors.

Not human either!

The leader of the monks was named Zhitong. He thoughtfully took out a handwritten copy of the Diamond Sutra from his arms and said, "If you are tired, you can relieve your fatigue by reading the Diamond Sutra."

Return the Diamond Sutra?

It’s useless even if you give me diamond pills.

Pei Xiao rolled his eyes and continued to climb the mountain on crutches.

His horse was still being held by Huang Qi.

Li Buyan was the first to climb to the top of the mountain and shouted: "Master Zhitong, how many other mountains like this are there?"

Zhitong said, "Miss Li, after climbing over seven such mountains, we will reach Dongxing County."

Pei Xiao's legs went weak and he almost rolled down the mountain.

Seven seats?

Grandma, you are planning to kill your precious grandson!

Yan Sanhe turned to look at Pei Xiao, then at the sky, "If you don't say anything, you go down the mountain first and find a place to stay."

"it is good."

Li Buyan ran away without a trace.

Xie Zhifei's eyes flashed and he crawled to Yan Sanhe's side, "Are you tired? Do you want to rest now?"

"It's safe to spend the night down here."

Yan Sanhe turned to look at him and wrote lightly: "I'm fine."

Due to blood loss, her face was pale and there was thick sweat on her forehead and the tip of her nose.

I couldn't describe what I felt in my heart, I just felt overwhelmed.

The two young ladies from the Xie family came to Kwai Shui and just stayed in bed. Several maids served attentively in the room, and the soups and soups in the small kitchen were changed every day.

The ancestors said that daughters should be pampered, and the young ladies raised in this way will be extremely delicate and precious.

Xie Zhifei silently took two steps forward and stood firmly in front of Yan Sanhe.

Going down the mountain is fast, but it is also easy to slip. He stood in front of her...

Yan Sanhe looked at him for a moment, said nothing, and breathed out softly.

We went down the mountain in two hours, and it happened to be dark.

After a night's rest, continue on your way...

When they reached the last hill, even Li Buyan slowed down.

Mr. Pei collapsed on Astragalus's body, like a dead fish, only taking in air but not letting it out.

It’s no wonder that after my grandmother came to Beijing at the age of 16, she never returned to her parents’ home.

How can I get back to this ghost place?

When no one was paying attention, Huang Qi secretly said in his master's ear: "Master, I will carry you when we go down the mountain in a while."

Pei Xiao secretly glanced at Yan Sanhe: "Go away, I don't want to lose face!"

Yan Sanhe was actually gritting his teeth and holding on.

Whoever tries to climb mountains and ridges in Kwai Shui for five days knows what it feels like, but she is not used to shouting, and no one will care if she does.

What kind of concubine from a wealthy family...

What kind of family is not inferior to the Ji family...

Just because of my hard-working spirit, I am not from a high background.The wise monk saw that everyone was either pale or dying. In order to cheer people up, he climbed to the highest point, pointed to the bottom of the mountain, and said loudly:

"Sir, Third Master, come and see, Dongxing County is right under our noses."

The adult is half buried, and the third master is still panting, but he is panting like a cow.

He struggled to stand up, and when he looked up, he found that Yan Sanhe was already standing next to Zhi Zhi.

When Zhi Zhi saw it was her, he quickly gave up his position.

In the past few days, he has finally figured out that Miss Yan, the most taciturn among the six, is actually the boss who speaks her mind.

Yan Sanhe raised his eyes and looked into the distance.

A river stretching for thousands of miles split the vast world into two parts. Even though it was so far away, she could vaguely feel the breadth and rapidity of the river.

"Master Smart, that river is the Beicang River?"

"Yes."

The smart hand pointed further away.

"On the other side of the Beicang River is the old street of Daqi. Girl, you can see that the houses on both sides are different."

"Great Qi Kingdom?"

A look of surprise appeared on Yan Sanhe's face.

In such a hurry along the way, she actually forgot that Xie Daozhi once said that Da Qi was related to the destruction of the Zheng family.

"So Beicang River is equivalent to the border?" she asked.

"It's not considered a border line. The imperial court has set up a chief envoy here, who can directly submit letters to the emperor."

As the warm breath fell, Yan Sanhe turned around and found Xie Zhifei standing beside her.

Probably because of the stubble growing out, his face looked a little more weathered than usual.

Yan Sanhe rolled his eyes, "It is now, which means it wasn't in the past. Can you tell me more specifically?"

"Interested?" He followed her example and bent his eyes.

Why should you learn from me?
Yan Sanhe took half a step back calmly, "Interested!"

"Actually, Da Qi has been the territory of China since the Qin Dynasty to the Han and Tang Dynasties. After several wars after the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, it broke away from the rule of China and became a small independent country."

Xie Zhifei looked into the distance.

"Although it is a small country, it has always been dependent on China. It can be regarded as a vassal state."

Yan Sanhe didn't understand and asked, "What is a vassal state?"

"The so-called vassal state is the relationship between you and Li Buyan. You say that Li Buyan is your friend and companion, but in fact she is very obedient to you. If you ask her to go east, she will not go west."

Xie Zhifei turned to look at Li Buyan.

"If she has any good things, the first thing she thinks of is giving them to you; and if Li Buyan is in any danger, you are the one who can ask for help."

Li Buyan listened with both ears pricked up and didn't miss a word. He thought to himself that it's a shame that Mr. Xie could think of this analogy.

"And you, if you see something happen to her, you will never do nothing to save her. Do you understand?"

"One thing I don't understand is that I leave it up to Li Buyan to decide on her own; who is in charge of the internal affairs of the vassal country?"

Beautiful question!
Xie Zhifei: "In the internal affairs of a vassal state, small matters can be decided by oneself, while major matters can be decided by the dependent big country."

He has his own princes and generals, his own army, and his own people, but he still has to obey the orders of the big country...

Yan Sanhe frowned slightly, "Third Master, continue."

Xie Zhifei was silent.

"In his early years, the late emperor enthroned Chen, the emperor of Da Qi. The Chen family paid tribute to China every year and often sent officials to China for study and exchange. The relationship between the two countries was very harmonious."

No one else noticed what he said, but Yan Sanhe heard some hidden meanings.

The so-called big things are big things like who will be the emperor of a vassal country. Others have no say, but the emperor of the big country has the final say.

"In the late years of the late emperor, an earth-shattering event quietly happened in Da Qi. Emperor Chen's nephew Wu Guanyue sought power and usurped the throne."

Xie Zhifei's voice suddenly dropped: "Because the two countries are far apart, the late emperor kept it in the dark until his death. No one in the country knew about it."

Wu Guanyue?
Yan Sanhe's heart trembled.

Xie Daozhi said that this man and his son were the main culprits in the massacre of the Zheng family.
