Chapter 110: Tyrant (3)
Shili Ginkgo, Pearl Jade Soup, Jinyu Mantang Shrimp... A series of dishes that were completely unimaginable from the name were brought up.
"I've been frail and sick since I was a child, and I haven't gotten better after many years of raising my body. I haven't traveled far. Can Young Master Yu tell me the story of Jianghu?"
Chu Yanyun didn't know if he was really curious or just casually testing it, but Xia Yu didn't care, just smiled slightly.
"Miss Chu can just call me Yuxi, Jianghu people, it's not that particular. If you're curious, it's okay to talk to you."
"The extreme west is no better than the Central Plains. The martial arts there are chaotic. It is not like Daqin who lives and works in peace and contentment. Every day in the extreme west, there are vendettas in the rivers and lakes. Because of the grievances and grievances of the rivers and lakes, there are tragedies in the whole family."
"I am lucky. The palace owner of Fengyue Palace is my mother. I grew up in Fengyue Palace since I was a child. I have heard many dirty things, but I have not seen much."
"It's martial arts. In fact, many people only know how to do three-legged cats, but there, as long as they can survive and kill each other, it's enough. This has spawned a lot of gangsters who specialize in indiscriminate methods."
Xia Yu is not afraid of her going to the extreme west for verification. She only mentioned a place in the extreme west. Could Chu Yanyun send someone to go to the extreme west to verify it?
"Our Fengyuegong is also very quiet in that area. We rarely deal with them. We only go down the mountain when we buy supplies when we live in the deep mountains."
"The land of the extreme west is very far from Daqin, right?"
"Yes." Xia Yu said: "Ninety-nine percent of people have never left there in their lives, let alone this Daqin. I was also angry with my mother, and this is why I came to Daqin day and night."
Chu Yanyun was surprised: "Ah"
Xia Yu looked annoyed, took a bite and said, "I can't get into her eyes, so she loves my junior sister, the woman who listens to her everywhere, and wants to pass on the position of the palace master to her. I don't like my junior sister, But she insisted that I marry her, and I couldn't stand her favoritism and left Fengyue Palace alone."
"This, this..." Chu Yanyun looked at Xia Yu in front of him with a look of shock, and he didn't know how to comfort the distressed person in front of him who had escaped marriage.
Family is important, but if she is forced to marry someone she doesn't like, she will probably resist.
Chu Yanyun secretly said in his heart.
But fortunately, her two brothers doted on her very much. They almost gave what they asked for. She had never been urged to marry, and she even hoped that she would consider this kind of thing later.
"Cough cough..." Chu Yanyun coughed suddenly, and the snow-white face became flushed because of the violent cough.
"Miss Chu, are you alright?"
"Cough... I'm sick, it's alright." Chu Yanyun coughed with his back to Xia Yu, and returned to her with a bit of tiredness when he was better.
Xia Yu touched her chin: "Has Miss Chu considered cultivating the inner strength method?"
"Practice martial arts" Chu Yanyun shook his head gently and said, "My foundation is too poor to supply the qi and blood needed for cultivation, nor can I take great tonic medicines."
"I understand." Xia Yu said embarrassedly, "I'm talking about the kind of inner strength that is gentle and healthy."
Chu Yanyun was stunned and looked at her puzzled.
"On the way to Daqin, I accidentally got a incomplete exercise. The one I got in my hand is the ice muscle and jade bone. It is a health exercise for recuperating the body and regulating qi and fitness."
She said: "This exercise is easy to get started with, the only trouble is that it is too little money, and it requires a lot of rare medicinal herbs to supplement the medicated bath. It is a fate to see it today. If Miss Chu is interested, I can write this ice muscle jade bone chapter by default. Coming down can also be regarded as a thank you for your big meal, Miss Chu."
In the ice muscle and jade bone chapter, the effect is indeed the same as what Xia Yu said. If you practice to a high depth, the ice muscle and jade bone, and the skin is more than an adjective.
This partial practice method was obtained by chance in her first world. After she retired, she discovered it by accident. Because she thought it was strange, she might use it later and write it down.
Although Chu Yanyun knew that it might be useless, he couldn't help but get excited: "What you said is true"
Her sick body has been bothering her for too long.
"Miss Chu can ask an expert to verify." Xia Yu said generously: "As Miss Chu, it shouldn't be difficult to ask one or two people in the martial arts to help identify the true and false?"
Chu Yanyun's face became straight: "If the method is effective, you are my benefactor!"
"You don't have to be a benefactor, it's just a thank you. Miss Chu doesn't need to be so polite." Xia Yu said indifferently after drinking and eating food.
Chu Yanyun just saw her familiar, and remembered that Xia Yu had just summoned her to talk about it. She never thought that there would be such a gain. When she had hope, she couldn't help thinking that Xia Yu was really her lucky star.
But then I remembered that Xia Yu died two years ago, and the bright eyes dimmed.
"Yu…xi, where do you live now?"
"At Tongfu Inn." Xia Yu replied casually.
Chu Yanyun nodded, looking at Xia Yu's handsome face, the more he looked at it, the more happy he felt, and he said, "If you don't have a place to live, you might as well live in my house, the Chu mansion is very big."
Xia Yu took the chopsticks and said hesitantly, "Is it inappropriate?"
"No money."
"Then I'll trouble you!" Xia Yu subconsciously agreed, but after speaking, she was stunned for a while, and looked at Chu Yanyun, who seemed to be smiling, pretending to be distressed, and continued, "I'll stay in the capital for a few days, take a look Just leave in a few days."
"Yeah." Chu Yanyun nodded and said, "I also suggest that Yuxi leave the capital, the right and wrong place, early. Your Majesty's eye lines are all over the capital, and you and Xia Xiang are somewhat similar in appearance, which is definitely disliked by His Majesty. "
Hearing this, Xia Yu leaned over a bit, lowered her voice, and said, "I came to Daqin not long ago, can you tell me why Your Majesty doesn't like Xia Xiang so much? When I was in Jianghu, I heard a lot of people Praise Xia Xiang."
Chu Yanyun: "..."
She lowered her eyes and pursed her lips, her good mood was suddenly destroyed, and she could no longer be happy.
"Ah, if you're embarrassed, you don't have to say it, I'm not that curious."
"I can't say who is more and who is wrong. They just did what they would do in that position, either Your Majesty or Xia Xiang..."
Xia Yu was a little surprised by Chu Yanyun's evaluation, but she also agreed with what she said. She really couldn't say anything right or wrong in this kind of thing.
Xia Yu wanted to fight Qin Mingyue for the mission, but Qin Mingyue, an idealist, was so well protected before ascending the throne that the late emperor died before he could teach her how many imperial tricks.
Qin Mingyue is not a piece of material to be an emperor. Xia Yu knows this better than anyone else, because Qin Mingyue was put on the shelves by her.
Chu Mansion is notoriously luxurious in the capital.
Xia Yu followed Chu Yanyun into the Chu Mansion, and her eyes were filled with amazement that the **** had never seen the world. Eighty percent of the fake and two true, because the world of the Chu Mansion had more than doubled in two years.
When a minister, especially a high-ranking minister, can't show that he has no desires or desires, he is an idealist, saying that I don't want anything, I just want to throw my blood for Daqin.
This kind of person will only attract the suspicion of those in power. You don't want anything and you are so hard at it
The emperor is suspicious, it seems ridiculous, but it has been staged a lot in history.
Sometimes the emperor is not afraid of what you want, but is afraid that you will not want anything, and the thief likes to make great contributions. In this way, when you come to Feng Wufeng, how should the emperor treat you?
This is a kind of power.
"Your family is really big." Xia Yu turned her head and said to Chu Yanyun, "It's the first time I've seen such a big, exquisite house, only the palace can be more luxurious than yours, right?"
Chu Yanyun smiled and didn't answer.
Leading Xia Yu to a courtyard of Chu's house, Chu Yanyun stopped and said, "You live here, right? It's quiet here. If you want to go out and play, you can leave the house by walking to the left."
"It's really big!" Xia Yu sighed with emotion, and then said: "Do you have a paper, ink, pen and inkstone? I'll write the ice muscle jade bone chapter for you now, so you can show it."
Chu Yanyun did not grumble: "Okay."
When the next person brought the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Chu Yanyun watched from the side, and was silent for a long time when he saw Xia Yu's indescribable words.
"Yuxi."
"Eh"
"Shall I write?"
"..."
There were five thousand words in total, and Xia Yu's mouth was dry after speaking, but she couldn't help but admire Chu Yanyun who had finished writing in one breath.
With so many words, Chu Yanyun's hands froze after thinking about it.
"I won't disturb your rest today." Chu Yanyun looked at the exercises he had just written, sorted it out and smiled at her: "If you have any questions, you can ask someone to come to me. By the way, my second brother I'll be back at night, if it's at night, Yuxi, you better not walk around, my second brother has a bad temper."
"I know!"
Chu Yanyun nodded in satisfaction, took the ice muscle jade bone chapter she contributed and left in a hurry, because she was in a good mood and her spirit was much better.
Xia Yu shook her head and said to herself, "It's really not like before."
She remembered that the first time she saw Chu Yanyun, Chu Yanyun was still a little girl, she was thin and weak, and she was timid when she saw people. She even touched Chu Yanyun's head at that time.
It's so big in the blink of an eye.
After sneaking into Chu's house, Xia Yu's mood was finally much better, and she felt that she had finally taken the most difficult step, and after taking this step, the rest of the road would be much easier to walk.
Xia Yu was in a good mood now, but she didn't know that she was being watched all day long, and she disappeared when she came to the Chu residence for monitoring.
Although she has martial arts, but her martial arts in this world is not high, and the hidden skills of those secret guards are top-notch, so she did not find out about it.
But what she did today, coupled with her meeting with Chu Yanyun, finally settled in Chu's mansion, but was reported to the empress in every detail.
Qin Mingyue!
Qin Mingyue in Ziwei Palace listened to the report of the dark guard, and there was a lot of playfulness in her heart, and there was also a trace of anger.
The Chu brothers are the sharpest knives in her hand. Of course, she will not sentence the Chu family to death just because the deliberate person contacts the Chu family. After all, she only suspects that the woman is from the Xuanji Pavilion, and she is not completely sure. .
Qin Mingyue's dark guards are all new recruits selected from the army. They don't know what Xia Yu, who died two years ago, looks like, because after Xia Yu's death, Qin Mingyue went crazy and destroyed everything about Xia Yu. Not even a picture was left.
Although it had only been two years, the only people who remembered Xia Yu's appearance were those who knew her well.
But this familiarity has now been almost killed by Qin Mingyue.
