Marriage Under the Heavens

Chapter 70: Cut off

Anling Prince's Mansion is also located in Jinxiufang, not far from Suxiang Mansion. In front of the mansion is a avenue of elm and willows. It was in March that willow branches were flying in the smoke, soft as the sleeves of a woman dancing.

In the study room of the palace, Anling Wang Yan Su and his staff, Shi Ye Yi Ziling, are playing a game.

Last night, after Xie Dichen caught the assassin who assassinated Xiaoyuxian's father, he handed it over to the Criminal Department. Last night, he was arraigned overnight and finally found out that the person behind the scenes was Liu Li. Because the second-tier officials of the imperial court were involved, Zhu Yuqiu, Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry, had already reported the results of the trial to the imperial court. Qing Emperor was really furious, and Liu Li was removed from office and sentenced to exile, but Liu Laishun was still convicted of beheading.

"His Royal Highness, your chess skills are getting better and better. If this continues, I am afraid I will not dare to play against His Royal Highness." Yi Ziling stared at the chessboard and thought for a long time before putting the black stone in his hand. He was dressed in a plain grey brocade robe, he was about thirty years old, his face was handsome and his eyes were bright.

Yan Su used the tip of his index finger and **** to cling to a white piece, and placed it on the chessboard at a very slow speed. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Ziling is joking again. This king is looking forward to you not playing against me. ."

Yi Ziling sighed, "His Royal Highness, Liu Li, the official secretary, I'm afraid he won't be able to keep it."

Yan Su nodded and smiled slightly, "This king is already ready to insert people. It's just the father's level, I don't know if I can pass it."

Yi Ziling smiled and said: "His Royal Highness, don't worry, the Holy Lord will definitely not arrange for King Kangyang. Then, no matter who arranges the rest, it will not be harmful to His Highness."

Yan Su nodded. Although the expression on his face was faint, a bright color flashed in his eyes. He has seen through the dead spot of the chess game, but the **** in his hand has not fallen. Instead, he raised his eyes and said: "Ziling, do you want this king to give you a chance to allow you to withdraw this move."

Yi Ziling looked down, frowned and frowned, shook his head and refused: "No, I have no regrets."

Yan Su raised his eyebrows slightly, an elegant smile on the corners of his lips, "Ziling is sure not to regret?"

Yi Ziling stared at the chess game for a while. Although he could see that his defeat had been revealed, he finally shook his head and left two decisive words: "No regrets!"

Yan Su picked up the white porcelain cup at hand, took a sip of tea, stretched out his fingers, held the chess pieces in his hand and tapped the table, squinting at the chess game, and said lightly: "Ziling doesn't need to be so serious, but you just play chess. If you don't regret it, this king will be a bit embarrassed in this next step!"

Yi Ziling sighed: "Since it's a dead end, I'll give up when I play. The prince needn't be embarrassed. It is a matter of principle to not regret playing chess. There are many things in this world that you can't regret if you have done it."

Yan Su condensed his brows and slowly said, "Actually, things in the world are never as simple as they seem. Just a close look at this game of chess is actually not a dead end! Why do you give up?"

Yan Su took the white piece in his hand and gently placed it on the chessboard. With just one move, the situation on the chessboard changed the situation that was almost dead, making the two sides evenly matched, and it was difficult to distinguish the outcome.

Yi Ziling glanced at the unpredictable chess game, took a sip of tea, his eyes condensed, and he nodded slightly.

"His Royal Highness, the Kingdom of Yun Shao is going to marry our country. I heard that the three princesses are now staying in the post house. I don't know what your Highness plans to do?" asked Yi Ziling.

Yan Su narrowed his eyes slightly, and said indifferently: "Although the king cannot participate in this lively event, he can't just give others a favor. The only way to do this is to find someone with extraordinary character among the officials to make peace. Yan Min argued."

Yunshao Country is located in the southern part of Dayu Country. Although the country is small, the country is rich in various rare treasures and has made great profits in trade with other countries, so its national strength is relatively rich. Yunshao State is a queen in power, and the two countries have always been in harmony. A small country like Yun Shaoguo poses no threat to Dayu, but if Yun Shaoguo supports her in seizing the progeny, at least it will be smoother.

Although Yan Su had no intention of seeking it out, he didn't want Yan Min to marry the three princesses of Yunshao Kingdom, so that Yan Min could help him out of Tianchen Sect.

Yi Ziling regretfully knocked on the table and sighed: "If the Highness goes down to fight, King Kangyang will definitely not be his opponent. In fact, why should your Highness be like this..."

Yan Su narrowed his eyes, and waves flashed in his eyes, like a breeze blowing across a lotus pond, creating a circle of small ripples.

He knew the meaning of Yi Ziling’s words, threw the chess piece in his hand on the chessboard, slowly stood up, walked to the bed with his hand, raised his eyes and looked at the vastness outside the window, "Ziling, you know my heart, why bother Words."

Yi Ziling sighed slightly, looked at Yan Su's back, and did not speak for a long time.

At this moment, the sky is approaching dusk, and the last soft light of the setting sun shone in shallowly, covering Yan Su’s handsome face, the extremely cold eyebrows, and the soft light at this moment, and the smile on the corner of the lips, Extremely gentle.

It was dusk, and in the post house where Yunshao State lived, a petite figure appeared quietly. It was the servant girl Linger of Yunshao State riding a maroon pony on the street today. With two attendants behind her, she left the post house and went down the street.

On the opposite floor, the loquat, who had been watching the movement of the post house, hugged the sword and went downstairs, followed the figure for a long time, and kept seeing her to the West Market in Lijing City, and said something to the yellow hair in his arms. In other words, Huang Mao was released.

Qin Jiufang had eaten dinner and felt a little tired today, and was about to rest early.

Huang Mao flew back and said to her, "West Market."

Qin Jiu frowned and said with a faint smile: "This little girl can really toss, and it's not too tired just to arrive at Lijing. Huang Mao, you take Axi to the West Market and let him buy a sword."

The West Market is the largest night market in Lijing City. As soon as the night enters, it is filled with various small stalls, and it is extremely lively.

Durian came to Lijing, and on the night of the Spring Festival, he watched the lantern on Tianmen Street with Qin Jiu for a while, and finally ran away like a run away. After that, he never came out to play at night.

Tonight, I don't know why Qin Jiu suddenly showed compassion and asked him to bring Huang Mao to the West Market to buy a sword.

Durian has loved reading since he was a child, but he didn't like martial arts, so martial arts is mediocre. Tonight, Qin Jiu suddenly said to him that if he wants him to buy a good sword in the West Market, she will teach him martial arts.

Durian is actually unwilling. It is said that the martial arts of the demon girl can be improved quickly by practicing with male pets. It is the martial arts of evil spirits. How can he learn from her. But he didn't dare to defy Qin Jiu's will, so he had to take Huang Mao to the West Market.

The West Market is noisy, and there are everything for sale, and the durian is dazzling. After a while, I saw a soldier selling weapons.

When the shopkeeper saw someone coming, he hurriedly sang a tune and said, "You don’t see me, Kunwu Tieye’s flying flames and smoke, red and purple are impressive. Lianggong has trained for several years, and he has made the sword name Longquan. Longquan. The color is frosty and snowy, and Lianggongzi sighs amazing. The colored glaze jade box spits out lotus flowers, and the gold ring is wrongly carved to reflect the bright moon. This son, do you want to see a sword? This sword is very suitable for you."

The shopkeeper said as he handed Durian a beautiful and delicate sword. The durian looked like a sword for women in the boudoir. He waved his hand, pointed to a simple sword and said, "Let me see this long sword."

The shopkeeper originally looked at Durian as a noble boy, thinking that he was just using a sword as a pretender, so the gorgeous and not sharp sword fooled the durian. Now I see him pointing to this sword, stroking his beard and smiling: "The son has good eyesight. This sword is a good sword. It was made by the famous casting master Xiao Ming and has an ancient meaning. The son doesn't know Xiao Ming is okay, he knows Anling. King, the knife in King Anling's hand was made by Xiao Ming. How many treacherous people have been cut by King Anling with that knife. Very profitable!"

Durian originally admired Yan Su, the king of Anling. After hearing the words of the shopkeeper, he asked, "How much silver is this sword?"

The shopkeeper stretched out **** towards the durian and shook them.

Durian asked: "Twenty taels? Well, I bought it."

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "The son will be wrong, two hundred taels."

Durian's eyes widened and said, "The shopkeeper, are you kidding me, a sword is two hundred taels?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "I just said that this is from the famous swordsmith, two hundred taels are already very cheap. So, I think the son really wants to buy it, let you make it up to one hundred and five. Twelve taels, no more pennies will be sold."

Durian hesitated. On the one hand, it was because he had taken a fancy to this sword. When he thought that there was only one hundred taels from Qin Jiu in his pocket, he stretched out a finger and said, "One hundred taels, I'll buy it."

The shopkeeper sighed and said with great regret: "If this is the case, then I will lose money to the son."

Durian felt that the shopkeeper's price was moderate. When he was about to pay for it, he heard a clear voice behind him, "This sword is also worth one hundred tael? What's so good about it?"

Looking back, Durian saw a girl standing behind him at some unknown time. She is wearing a pink dress, her black hair is combed into a double bun, and the bun is wrapped with white rabbit fur, looking cute and cute. Looking closely at her eyebrows, it was the Yun Shao country maid Ling'er that she saw on the street.

Ling'er glanced at durian sideways, ignored him, and just asked the shopkeeper, "What is so good about this sword? It's worth a hundred taels of silver?"

The shopkeeper saw that the deal was about to be sold, but Cheng Yaojin appeared halfway, his face sank, and said: "Little girl, you don't understand, my sword is good."

"The advantages are not good, that is to try." Linger said in a clear voice.

She drew out the sword she was wearing at her waist and said, "I bought this sword with twenty taels of silver. So it's not as good as your sword. I would like to try it."

The shopkeeper was shocked, and before he could stop it, the little girl saw the sword in her hand and fell towards him.

Silently, his sword, including the sword and scabbard, was cut to pieces.
