The prince is very fierce

After breakfast, Chen Sining came to the room, opened the incubator, and fed two little snakes that could not hibernate.

Chen Sining was a little distracted with the hangover from last night. She didn't even pay attention to the little sparrow holding a pebble in her hand and stuffing it into Ah Qing's mouth, causing Ah Qing to hide away in horror.

Cui Xiaowan was still relatively weak, but lying down for a long time was not good for her health. In order to recover early and not worry Xu Buling, she stood up and walked around the room to stretch her hands and feet.

Seeing Chen Sining's appearance, Cui Xiaowan sat down in front of him and said strangely:

"Sining, what are you doing?"

"Um?"

Chen Sining was stunned, looked down, and found that the rations in her hand had turned into pebbles. She quickly took her hand back and said awkwardly:

"I accidentally lost my focus and made Sister Cui laugh."

Cui Xiaowan brought the troublesome little sparrow over, rubbed its furry head, and said seriously:

"If you want to call me aunt, you must not mess with the seniority."

Aunt...

After Chen Sining found out about the relationship between Cui Xiaowan and Xu Buling, she couldn't help but scream, but she was an elder, so she couldn't be too presumptuous, so she could only change her words:

"Okay, aunt."

"Yeah, be good."

"..."

Chen Sining pursed her lips and was speechless.

Cui Xiaowan has a clear mind and no distracting thoughts, which makes her seem innocent, but in fact she understands everything deep down. She glanced at Chen Sining and asked seriously like an elder:

"Sining, do you like Xu Buling?"

Chen Sining's expression froze, and she raised her hair hanging down by her ears, looking slightly embarrassed:

"Auntie, what are you talking about? I...Xu Buling and I are friends in the world. You also know what happened in South Vietnam. He and I...well, we can't even say we like each other."

Cui Xiaowan petted the little sparrow and shook her head:

"I thought the same way before. I came out just to chat with interested friends; but later I discovered that when I took the first step out of Peach Blossom Valley, I was destined not to go back again. Lao Jia understood it at the time, but I was the bureau The middleman can’t see through.”

The little sparrow chirped twice, apparently saying, "Look, what do you mean by someone coming here?"

Chen Sining just met Cui Xiaowan yesterday, and she didn't understand Cui Xiaowan's speaking style. She seemed to understand the words, and thought Cui Xiaowan was talking about her past. She hesitated, not knowing how to answer, so she just nodded and smiled.

Cui Xiaowan saw that Chen Sining didn't understand, so she stopped helping Xu Buling abduct her daughter-in-law, and just sat next to her and played with the sparrow.

Chen Sining was originally very talkative, but facing Cui Xiaowan, who was older than her, it felt wrong to talk about any topic. In addition, because of the drunken incident last night, she felt quite embarrassed, and the two of them fell silent for a while.

After waiting for an hour in the inn, at noon, Xu Buling and Zhu Manzhi came back from outside.

After finding out that Zuo Qingqiu had come to Liangcheng, Xu Buling knew that the trap was almost ready. After returning to the inn, he started to pack his bags.

Chen Sining packed up the little snake and went to the next room. When she saw Xu Buling sitting on a stool and putting on soft armor, she walked over and helped tie the rope on the side of the soft armor.

Seeing this, Xu Buling opened his arms, asked Chen Sining to help, and asked with a smile:

"Miss Chen, after drinking so much wine last night, does your headache feel better?"

"It's been fine for a long time."

Chen Sining fastened her soft armor tightly, raised her eyes and glanced at Xu Buling, hesitated slightly, and asked casually:

"Mr. Xu, did you hear anything strange last night?"

Xu Buling knew what Chen Sining was worried about, shook his head and said with a smile:

"Nothing happened. It's just that the quilt was too thick. You were a little hot while sleeping with your clothes on, so you threw your clothes around. It's nothing else."

Chen Sining secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked again:

"I...I didn't say anything yesterday, right?"

Need to ask? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...

Xu Buling blinked, pretending not to know anything, and asked doubtfully:

"say what?"

"..."

Seeing that Xu Buling's expression didn't look fake, Chen Sining finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled:

"It's nothing, I'm just afraid that talking in sleep and making noise will disturb you. By the way, what are Mr. Xu going to do next?"

After Xu Buling put on the protective gear, he put on his outer robe:

"You're going to do something big. Don't you want to meet the masters in the world? I'll take you to see them all."

"Um?"

Chen Sining was a little puzzled, but Xu Buling didn't explain.

After packing their things, the four people left the inn and left Liangcheng in a small carriage...

-------

The next day, a sudden blizzard swept across the Mobei wilderness.

Between the vast sky and the earth, two battalions of Liangcheng soldiers and horses guarded the envoy's convoy heading towards Mazhao Ridge.

Mazhao Ridge is located on the border of Liangcheng County, and is also the border of the jurisdiction of Prince You. After Mazhao Ridge, you will reach the grassland, which is under the jurisdiction of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

The envoy from Dongyue came over to meet with the Northern Qi monarch. According to precedent, he was just passing through Liangcheng. Prince You was not responsible for contact and negotiation. It was only because he met an assassin in Liangcheng that he sent troops to escort him along the way.

This escort will naturally be sent to Mazhao Ridge at most, and then the imperial court will come over to take over and welcome the envoy team back to Yancheng.

In order to make everything look reasonable, Xu Buling took the bait and came to step on the thunder. Zuo Qingqiu arranged everything in an orderly manner and even chose the weather well.

There was a sudden blizzard, and the weather on the grassland was so bad that it was difficult to move. The team that came to greet them would inevitably be late, and the escort team would leave when they reached their destination. During this period, the envoy team's protection was at its weakest. In order to successfully seduce Xu Buling, even the bait was placed at the front of the envoy team.

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, heavy snow falls.

Han Xianchu, who came to the Northern Qi Dynasty as an envoy, was wrapped in a thick fox fur and rode slowly forward on his horse. Although his nose was almost frozen due to the cold, he still pretended to be gazing at the wind and snow, reciting poems and composing poems.

Han Xianchu was a counselor under King Wu Song Siming, and he had met Xu Buling. As long as Xu Buling's purpose in coming to Northern Qi was to sabotage the peace talks, it was impossible not to find an opportunity to take action after seeing Han Xianchu.

Next to Han Xianchu was Sui Jinshan, one of the nine ministers of the Northern Qi Dynasty. He was also wrapped in a fox fur and shivering from the cold. , Sui Jinshan's face was still calm and calm, and he was chatting with Han Xianchu.

Han Xianchu knew why he was riding outside in the snow. At this time, he tried not to look around with his eyes and asked in a low voice:

"Is the news from Mr. Sui serious? This ice and snow is a target. It really attracts the wolf. As long as I can catch it, I will give up the one hundred and ten kilograms of meat. But if there is no such thing, I will be frozen from here. I'm afraid my body won't be able to bear it when I return to Yancheng."

Sui Jinshan was confident and pointed at the carriage behind him:

"Don't worry, Mr. Han. As long as the wolf dares to come, it can't escape even if it has wings. It won't hurt Mr. Han in the slightest."

Han Xianchu also thought that going to the Xu family would hinder the alliance, but he didn't expect that Xu Buling would come in person. After learning the news from Beiqi, he still didn't believe it. At this time, he chuckled:

"If we can catch that little wolf king, the dilemma between you and me will be solved. If that person has some brains, he will not be involved in danger. But Sui Gong is so confident, I will trust Sui Gong. In fact, as long as he dares to come, The guards I brought are enough to catch the wolf without the help of those in the carriage."

Sui Jinshan knew what kind of terrifying beings Han Xianchu had brought with him this time, so he did not question these words. He just smiled at each other and walked side by side into the boundless wind and snow outside the Great Wall...

-----

Two days later, it’s New Year’s Eve.

Xu Buling took advantage of the darkness and climbed to a high ground near Mazhao Ridge. He took out his binoculars and looked at the activities in the town.

The small town under Mazhao Ridge was almost buried in the heavy snow. Red lanterns were hung on the streets, and some children set off fireworks in front of the door, giving the small town outside the Great Wall a bit more of a New Year atmosphere.

Outside the inn in the center of the town, several carriages were parked outside. The escorting soldiers and horses had turned back, leaving only their entourage to guard them.

Because it is the only place to go to Guiyan City, even on the eve of the New Year, there are some passers-by in the town, but the number is much smaller than usual.

After looking at it for a moment, Xu Buling put down the telescope and turned around and said:

"You guys wait here, I'll go over there to do some errands. If something goes wrong, ride away immediately. I'll catch up later."

On the snowy slope, the wind-chasing horse was tied up in a shelter. A small sparrow and two small snakes were watching nearby. The three girls lay side by side on the ground, covered with white quilts as camouflage.

Zhu Manzhi followed the convoy all the way, and could see that this team was not simple, and his eyes were a little nervous:

"Mr. Xu, be careful. Why don't you bring Sining with you? She is very powerful."

Chen Sining also meant the same thing. She was very good at martial arts and cooperated with Xu Buling. She was not afraid of any master in the world. Even if she couldn't help, she couldn't escape. Seeing that Xu refused to go alone, she said:

"I'll go with you. There's a helper here, so you always have to be safe."

Xu Buling shook his head: "Just protect Xiaowan Manzhi. I can solve it myself. No matter what happens, don't make your own decisions and come to help."

Cui Xiaowan was lying between the two of them. She was very confident in Xu Buling and waved her hand:

"Screw you, leave early and come back early, New Year's Eve will be tomorrow, and you still have to find a place to cook New Year's Eve dinner."

"good."

Xu Buling curled his lips, and without further delay, he led the black wind-chasing horse over and walked slowly down the snow slope...
