Descendants of Pangu in the Great Desolation

Chapter 182 Thunder Mountain Journey
"Your Highness, I'm back."

The Marquis Mansion, which was originally quiet, became commotion for a moment with the shout of a man, and the commotion gradually subsided with the sound of the man's hurried footsteps, and the Marquis Mansion returned to its usual silence.

"You're back, did you hear any news?" At this moment, a man in a fine attire came out of the room and asked anxiously.The man who had just entered the mansion bowed his hands to the man in Chinese clothes and saluted: "Your Highness, I have found out something, let's go in and talk about it." The man in Chinese clothes nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work this trip, Meng Si'er. "Then the two walked into the room one after the other, and the one who entered behind closed the door behind him.

These two were Situ Rui and Meng Si'er who escaped from Yunchao Palace two months ago.After the two escaped from the palace, they hired a carriage and headed towards Nanke City.After the two came to Nanke City, they did not rush into the palace to meet the former monarch Liu Yuan, but found an inn to stay temporarily.Half a month later, Situ Rui saw that the news of his escape had not reached the Yuan Dynasty, so he took Meng Si'er into the palace to look for Liu Yuan.After seeing Liu Yuan, Situ Rui didn't hide anything, and told Liu Yuan everything about his escape.After Liu Yuan heard about it, he asked Situ Rui what his plans were in the future. Situ Rui told him that he wanted to stay, but didn't mention anything else.Liu Yuan already admired his talent, and when he saw that he wanted to stay, he nodded in agreement.Three days later, Liu Yuan's early court proposed to take in Situ Rui, not only allowing him to serve as the right servant of the Ministry of Industry, but also rewarding him with a house located in Xida Alley, which is the aforementioned Marquis Mansion .Some civil and military officials disagreed with this proposal.Although the news of Situ Rui's escape did not spread to Nanke City, these officials still heard some rumors, and they originally ignored the rumors and passed away with the wind.But when Liu Yuan said this, some people confirmed the authenticity of the rumor, but some still expressed doubts. Everyone was wondering whether Situ Rui wanted to come to the Yuan Dynasty to plot something under the pseudonym of fleeing.There are also a small number of people who maintain a wait-and-see attitude towards this matter, and plan to see it first.Although the opinions of the officials were different, Liu Yuan still insisted on his own opinion. In the end, the officials reluctantly nodded, and Situ Rui stood firm in Nanke City.

The first thing Situ Rui did after he stabilized was to ask Meng Si'er to go back to Qiyun City, the capital of Yunchao, to inquire about news.After Meng Si'er left, there was no news for more than 20 days.When Situ Rui saw him, he couldn't remember it. "Meng Sier, what news have you found out? Is my wife okay? Is the baby okay?" As soon as he entered the room, Situ Rui hurriedly asked Meng Sier about the current movement of Qiyun City.Meng Si'er said: "I have found out all these. Your Highness, please sit down first and let me speak slowly." Situ Rui nodded and sat down and said: "You can sit down too." Meng Si'er took the opportunity to sit down, Said: "After I returned to the capital, I asked around. Since His Highness escaped from the palace with me that day, the emperor was furious. Not only did the empress go into the cold palace to contemplate her mistakes behind closed doors, but she also stripped Mrs. Sun of her position as prime minister and made her enter the palace." The Imperial Academy took up the position of Taifu, and removed Lord Yu from the position of Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and took up the position of Daotai in Wujun County. Other officials who had personal relationships with His Highness or were close to Lord Sun were transferred, demoted, or demoted. Perhaps no one is spared, His Highness's previous power has been completely removed from the court."

"What!" Situ Rui slapped the table and said in shock: "I didn't expect my father to do it so thoroughly. It seems that my father has long wanted to kill me. If I hadn't escaped with your help this time, I might be decapitated by now." It's over. By the way, how is my wife, has she been involved in anything?" Meng Si'er shook his head and said: "The princess is not involved. I heard that the emperor's favorite little highness did not harm the princess. Now the princess and Your Highness is staying in Prince Ping's Mansion, and everything is fine." After hearing this, Situ Rui murmured, "The lady and the baby live in Uncle Liuhuang, so I don't have to worry about anything. After all, Aunt Liuhuang is the lady's aunt. , will treat her and the baby well." Meng Si'er asked: "Your Highness, what are you going to do next, do you want to take the princess and your Highness here?" Situ Rui waved his hand and said: "Not yet Time. Now we have to do everything possible to gain Liu Yuan's trust. As long as we gain his trust and borrow military power from him, I don't believe that I can't take back everything that belongs to me." Meng Si'er was a little worried when he heard the words "Your Highness, can this Emperor Liu Yuan lend you the military power easily?" Situ Rui narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Then it depends on whether Liu Yuan's heart is big enough?" Meng Si'er scratched the back of his head and asked Said: "Your Highness, what do you mean by this, I don't understand." Situ Rui smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, as long as Liu Yuan understands. Haha..." Meng Sier stood there like Zhang Er The monk was puzzled.Situ Rui then said: "Meng Si'er, go back to your room and rest first, I still have something for you to do tomorrow." Meng Si'er shook his head and said: "I'm not tired, your Highness, just ask if you have something to do." Situ Rui said : "Since you want to gain Liu Yuan's trust, you have to do something to win his trust. Go back to your room to rest and recharge yourself. Tomorrow, I still have a lot of things for you to do. Seeing what he said, Meng Si'er didn't refuse anymore, got up and saluted him, then pushed the door and went back to his room to rest.After Meng Si'er left, Situ Rui got up, sat down in front of the desk, and got busy.

At the foot of Lei Mountain, ten miles outside Xijiang Town, Miaojiang
"Brother Hai, give me one of the Qingxin Pills you made, I can't stand the miasma in this mountain." Xiaoyou pointed to the cloud-shrouded Leishan Mountain and said to me.I took out two Qingxin Pills from the brocade bag at my waist, handed one to him, and put the other on my lips for swallowing.Just as I opened my mouth to swallow the pill, Xiaoyou stepped forward and snatched the pill from my hand.I was taken aback and asked, "Why are you snatching my pills? Didn't I give them all to you?" Xiao Youtuan squeezed the two pills in his hand and said, "You have Yunjinxia clothes to protect your body from all evils. How much can a little miasma poison do. What Qingxin pills are you still taking, what a waste." He said, throwing one pill into the mouth, and put the other away.I scratched the back of my head and said, "This Yunjinxia robe has many benefits, and you are not afraid of miasma poison." Xiaoyou sighed, "This Yunjinxia robe is wearing on you, it is really a waste of the Weaver Girl's work. Alright, let's go Go." Then he turned around and walked straight into the mountains.As soon as I heard that the words were wrong, I hurriedly chased them two steps and asked, "What do you mean by what you said just now?" Xiaoyou looked at me and said, "What do you mean? It means literally. Don't understand? If you don't understand, forget it "After speaking, continue to walk forward.

"Literally?" I stood still and recalled what he said just now, slapped my head and cursed secretly: Damn it!Isn't his trick my best?Could it be that this brain has been useless for a long time, and it is a little rusty, and it can be planted in his hands. "Stop, Xiaoyou! If you dare to play tricks on me, let me see how I deal with you!" I shouted while chasing forward.Hearing my shout, Xiaoyou looked back at me and shouted: "If you want to deal with me, catch me first!" Then she spread her legs and ran forward.Seeing him being so arrogant, I was so angry that I was furious. This was the trick I used to deal with Situ Jing before. When I let him steal it, it was a naked provocation to me. I must not bypass him.But having said that, I have to think of a few more tricks, so that Situ Jing will not learn too well, and it will be difficult to deal with him in the future.

In Qiyun Chengping Prince's Mansion, Situ Jing just walked out of Jingyue Pavilion when he suddenly sneezed.Situ Jing wondered: "Who is talking about me again?" Then he rubbed his nose with his hands and said, "Is it because my little nephew Shui Han misses my uncle? Don't worry, uncle will see you now." , Situ Jing strode towards Xinmengju.
