All sects work

Chapter 87 The Wind Rises and Ping Moe
Early the next morning, Zhuang Qiqi took a shower and changed clothes, cleaning himself up carefully as if he was going to a battlefield.

She chose a snow-white tunic with wide sleeves from the clothes that were sent to her, and her black hair was randomly tied into a bun with a white jade hairpin.

The maid saw that she was dressed as if she were going to a funeral, and was about to persuade her, but she saw her opening a box of red lipstick, applying the pink lipstick bit by bit to bright red, and then applying the remaining color on her fingertips to her eyes. The tail halo is dyed with a long line.

Shi Xuanying was sitting on the beam, looking down at this scene, she knew that Zhuang Qiqi was imitating the face of High Priest Xi.

Zhuang Qiqi walked to the door, and Shi Xuanying's voice suddenly came from the sea of ​​consciousness: "I can feel the consciousness imprinted before. Yan Chu is in the city, I will go find him first."

The maid saw Zhuang Qiqi's footsteps suddenly stopped and asked in confusion: "Jiang Ji?"

When Zhuang Qiqi came back to his senses, he saw two pots of red camellia flowers blooming just right on the porch, so he picked two hairpins and placed them between his temples.

In the palace garden, the flowers are colorful and colorful, and so are the people.

The princess ordered a banquet to be held under the wisteria gallery, where dozens of beautifully dressed women were having fun.

When he was almost there, Zhuang Qiqi heard from the maid that today was not a banquet for guests, but a gathering of family members in the mansion - that is, a banquet between the princess and the prince's concubines.

Turn around the corridor.

Zhuang Qiqi came into everyone's sight.

Dozens of beautiful women turned back to look at her.

In order to please Jiang Ji, the prince sent all the clothes from Xiao Chen Guo.

Qu Guo's attire is dignified and heavy, while Xiao Chen Guo's attire pursues elegance. Zhuang Qiqi's outfit is extremely plain and gorgeous. Bright and cool collide with each other to create a strange beauty, dancing in this colorful scene. Come out and become the most eye-catching one.

Zhuang Qiqi was eager to give it a try, and was already gearing up to fight it for 800 rounds. As a result, at a glance, all the women looked stunning, especially the princess in the first seat, holding a cup of tea and leaning on the back of the chair. , with a leisurely posture, looking at her with only admiration.

When the princess saw Zhuang Qiqi standing at the corner and refusing to step forward, she winked at the woman in scarlet clothes on her right.

However, the woman in scarlet clothes only focused on admiring the beauty and ignored her. The princess secretly got lucky and kicked the stool under her butt.

"Ouch!" The woman in scarlet clothes fell hard on her butt.

"Giggle!"

"Hahaha!"

A group of women burst out laughing, slapping their hands on the table, without any regard for etiquette, as if the illusion of a group of white swans had been shattered and turned into five hundred ducks in an instant.

"Sister, come in quickly."

The two women on the outermost side stood up to greet Zhuang Qiqi. They enthusiastically pulled her into the flower gallery and introduced each person's identity one by one.

Only then did Zhuang Qiqi realize that in this palace, on the surface, they were all the prince's wives and concubines, but in fact, the princess was respected everywhere.

"A new sister is here. Should we make a round and go out to have some fun?" The woman in scarlet clothes rubbed her waist and hips and said with interest, "Why don't we go to Qingxi to watch? There are good mountains and rivers over there."

The woman in yellow said, "Taoist Master is better."

"Hahahaha!"

The girl in scarlet clothes is named Sai Yanzhi, and the girl in yellow clothes is Fang Qingnu. One was a brothel oiran, and the other was the second head of a bandit village.

This prince seems to have a collecting habit. The women in the backyard have all kinds of identities, including oirans, daughters of scholarly families, queens of generals, female gangsters in bandits, and widows who watch the door. None of them are the same, and now there is "Jiang Ji" "This is the concubine of the king of another country.

The princess was not disappointed, and simply agreed: "Okay, let's pack up first, and let's take the prince to the village over there to stay for a while."

"My sister is so well dressed." The woman in green said with envy.

After Zhuang Qiqi understood the situation, he quickly got involved and said, "Sister, if you like it, how about I help you dress it up?"

"Okay!" The woman in green agreed quickly.

Others also joined in the fun: "I want it too, I want it too!"

What was a nice tea party turned into a collective tailor-made meal in a blink of an eye.

They are also very casual, and they come up with whatever they want. In the words of the princess, "anything is idle anyway."

The rare thing about Zhuang Qiqi's clothes is the material. There is no complicated and time-consuming handwork in sewing. Dozens of embroiderers in the embroidery room can do it at the same time, and dozens of sets can be produced in one afternoon.

A group of women cut out all the moonlight silk, which was one foot and ten gold in the mansion's warehouse, and found that it was not enough. Zhuang Qiqi suggested that the sisters be divided into two groups, one with white hairpins and red flowers, and the other with red hairpins and white jade hairpins. Then Huo Huo Xiaguang silk.

The princess was merciless in spending money and would give whatever the dozens of "gold-eating beasts" asked for.

At first, Zhuang Qiqi thought he was spending the prince's money, but later he found out that the prince's palace was so rich that most of the properties, although they bore the name of the prince, were actually the business of the princess.

If the prince gives up his power to the princess a little, he can let her make money for him and support dozens of concubines for him to spend his money on. The wives and concubines at home are harmonious and life can't be more satisfactory.

At dinner, the wives and concubines put on new clothes to show off in front of the prince. Zhuang Qiqi discovered that these women were sincere in trying to please the prince. They coaxed her down with sweet words and coquettishness, and the prince was so happy that he even agreed to stay with them in Zhuangzi near Qingxi Temple.

Zhuang Qiqi thought to himself, no wonder the prince seems to have a good temper. Living such a life, what trouble can he have?

Originally, Zhuang Qiqi wanted to win the prince's exclusive favor so that he could act in the future, but after learning that the princess was the actual person in power in the palace, he changed his strategy and no longer actively tried to get her.

She moved her eyes to the princess, and when she saw her looking over, she frowned slightly and chuckled, thinking to herself, women are not incompetent...

Yingying Yanyan in this room and Xuan Ying in the other room were squatting on the dense tree in the courtyard of the general's mansion, staring at the woman lying on the bed in the room.

"That's right?" She crossed her arms and frowned.

I clearly feel that the consciousness I have imprinted is here, so how come I can't see anyone?
Shi Xuanying's consciousness has not yet completely broken free from Chenji's suppression, so she can still only find an approximate location. She has already looked at all the people in several nearby houses, and none of them look like Yan De, except for the woman in front of her. I slept all afternoon.

Finally, amid Shi Xuanying's expectation, the woman in the room slowly opened her eyes.

Yan Chu was very weak now. He was still not quite awake after sleeping all afternoon. He calmed down and just sat up holding on to the edge of the bed when a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his mind: "Old Yan?"

Yan Chu froze.

At this moment, countless thoughts surged into his mind, all of them clamoring to run away. In the end, they were all suppressed, and he whispered: "It's me."

When Shi Xuanying heard this, her foot slipped and she fell from the tree.

She slipped into the house through the window, got directly onto the bed, and lowered the curtains on both sides.

"The smell of blood is very strong." Shi Xuanying twitched her nose slightly, "Are you injured?"

"..." Yan Chuan was silent for a moment in a subtle mood, "Yeah."

Shi Xuanying's eyes stayed on his abdomen: "It won't hurt the inner alchemy, right?"

"I don't have the inner elixir now." Yan Chen lowered his voice in embarrassment.

Without thinking too much, Shi Xuanying took out a few porcelain bottles from her arms and threw them to him: "You can take some of the blood coagulation pills, muscle growth pills and qi-entraining pills you took out from Xiaozhuang's storage bag."

Yan Zhi felt happy and immediately poured out the Blood Coagulation Pill and Muscle Growth Pill and threw them into his mouth.

Since Yannan's miscarriage, his lower body was wet and unclean. He was given decoction three times a day, but he could still feel his life flowing away rapidly. Without these elixirs, his death would only take a year and a half at most.

After taking the elixir, my abdomen quickly became warm and my body felt relaxed as never before.

This little confinement, Yan Chu really doesn't want to experience it again for a moment.

"What's going on with you?" Shi Xuanying asked after seeing the color return to his face.

"She has been like this since I became Yan Nan." Yan Jian vaguely mentioned it, and then talked about other things, "I may have discovered the key to the dust core."

As expected, Shi Xuanying's attention was diverted: "Tell me about it."

"The woman I turned into has a close friend named Xiao Hongfan, who will take over the 'Xiao Family Army' in a few days." Yan Chu then told her in detail the origins and background of the Xiao Family Army and the situation in the entire world.

Originally, there were many vassal states, large and small, in this land. After hundreds of years of conquests and annexations, it became one-fifth of the world, namely Xu State, Qu State, Da Chen State, Xiao Chen State, and Lu Chang State.

Now Xiao Chen State has been destroyed and divided by Xu State and Qu State, leaving only four countries.

The emperors of Qu State were fanatical and warlike for several generations, which led to a strong martial culture and strong martial virtues in Qu State. The current emperor is even more prone to militarism.

In just forty years, not to mention how many soldiers died, even the generals of Qu State changed several times.

However, Qu State expanded rapidly in a short period of time, and its borders were lengthened several times. The subjects in the newly conquered territories did not fully surrender, and chaos often broke out. With such internal and external troubles, manpower is increasingly stretched, and then I think of Xiao Hongfan, a fierce general.

In fact, before Xiao Hongfan, many women on the border had gone to battle to kill the enemy, but they were not officially included in the army, let alone female generals.

Yan Chen said: "The woman I turned into is named Cong Yannan. She is resourceful and talented as a counselor. Xiao Hongfan came to invite her to be a military advisor, but she...she was not in good health. Before I took the elixir, I can feel life passing by quickly. I guess, according to the original plan, Cong Yannan will die soon."

Then, Xiao Hongfan will lose a counselor.

Could Yannan's death be the result of Pingmo's rebellion? Cause a subsequent crash?
Shi Xuanying: "Do you think Cong Yannan and Xiao Hongfan are the key figures in this matter?"

"Intuition." Yan Yan said.

A monk's intuition is often a warning, and Shi Xuanying doesn't think there is anything wrong with him trusting his intuition.

Yan Chen and her analyzed the famous armies of several other countries in detail: "There are mountains and natural chasms between Lu Changguo and the other three existing countries. There have been only a few battles over the past hundreds of years, and the possibility of affecting the entire world is small. The remaining Among the Three Kingdoms, the most powerful ones in the Qu Kingdom are the Feiyu Army, the Xu Kingdom has the Xuanjia Army, and the Dachen Kingdom has the Chengtian Army. There are famous generals in these armies. I only know some superficial information at the moment. , we can investigate in depth later.”

"Fortunately, Cong Yannan still cares a little about political affairs, otherwise we would have been blinded, and the women of Xiao Chen State are living a miserable life..." Shi Xuanying stopped speaking abruptly and glanced at Yan Chen.

Yan Zai understood and motioned for her to hide behind the screen.

After a while, the maid came in and said, "Madam, there are officers and soldiers blocking the door, wanting to come in and search for someone."
