Chapter 70 Sparrow God
[40 years old. You have been married to Fu Xuan for nine years. During this period, you still stay in the courtyard. The couple has a harmonious relationship. Fu Xuan has gradually taken over more of Luofu's affairs and has become a reliable master of fortune-telling.]
But An Ming was still a little confused as to why his wife acted as cute as a little child after returning home. He always had the illusion that he was the senior brother and Fu Xuan was the junior sister.
Fu Xuan always liked to bask in the sun with him under the peach tree, and even complained: "Isn't basking in the sun a leisure activity that only old men like? At such a young age, you have already saved yourself 30 or 40 years of detour."
When Fu Taibu was sometimes unable to go to Yuque in time, she would call on Qingque to deliver letters for her.
Qingque was naturally very unhappy when she came to see An Ming for the first time. There were obviously more quick and convenient options, but she chose the slowest Qingque Logistics.
But she has never been to Yuque, so it would be nice to just treat it as a funded tour.
Qingque might not be good at other things, but he was first-rate at regulating his emotions. He soon arrived at Yuque and met his master under the famous peach tree.
Although An Ming himself did not know it, the peach blossom sword in the Jade Palace had already become a legendary story passed down by word of mouth among the people of Xianzhou. Whenever the tragic Third War of the Fertile People was mentioned, An Ming could not be avoided.
No matter how the world judges, An Ming's contribution is beyond doubt. If there is doubt, he can just ask calmly: "Why don't you try to catch an arrow from the Emperor's bow?"
This is really a case of death if you try it. Except for An Ming, no one has been able to come back alive from the great grace of the Emperor Bow.
"I, Qingque, would like to greet Master Jianshou."
The bluebird's cute eyes looked curiously at the tall figure under the tree. It was not as majestic as imagined, but instead surprisingly made people feel at ease.
Is this the reason why Lord Taibu asked her to write leave notes every month?
Qingque is on the verge of collapse after these years. She is still just a child, yet she has to think about how to make up new reasons to ask for leave for Fu Xuan. The general is not so easy to fool.
At first, Qingque would copy some flowery sentences from the book, and combine them with hexagrams, astronomy, Luofu situation, and major alliance events to create a perfect fake note that was so perfect that even Fu Xuan doubted whether it was true.
[The hexagrams fluctuate, the yin and yang change, now Luofu is uncertain about its future, I will go to Yuque to find a way out]
Until Qingque wrote 89 leave notes in one month——
The content of the leave note gradually evolved into: [Dating, leave], [Yuque, leave], [Wedding anniversary in xxx days, understand?], [leave].
The sparrow god is ready.
The old lady was in love, so why was she the one who got hurt? This is not right!
She couldn't have come to Taibusi just to write a leave note!
No, sister?
She and Taibu are very close, but Taibu treats her like a beast of burden!
Is this how one can become Luofu Taibu? Then she can have sex with her!
"Just call me An Ming."
An Ming looked at Qingque and seemed to see his past self in a trance. What was Jingtian thinking when he saw him at that time?
Qingque took out more than 30 letters from the package, tied them up neatly with red ropes, and placed them on the stone table next to the tree. "Sword Master... Lord An Ming, these are the letters that the Grand Astrologer asked me to bring."
"Thanks a lot."
"No, no, it's just a piece of cake~"
Qingque scratched the back of her head, feeling that this master was much easier to talk to than she had imagined. He would not suddenly assign her a mountain of homework like Fu Xuan did.
Well, Master is a good man!
"We can't let you make a wasted trip. Since you are Xuan'er's apprentice, it's quite appropriate," An Ming said as he threw a wooden sword over. Youth has no price. Que Shen blinked his eyes and was hit on the head by the sword. He felt dizzy and almost fell asleep.
"Wait...I'm a civilian!"
Qingque covered her red and swollen forehead, wanting to run away with tears in her eyes, but no one told her that she would be beaten for delivering a letter here!
"It doesn't matter. Xuan'er was also a civilian at the beginning," An Ming also raised a wooden sword. The aura of his whole body changed instantly, like a sharp blade ready to burst out with a shocking aura at any time.
In this way, Qingque would be caught to practice sword skills once or twice a year when he delivered letters. He was a civil servant in the Taibusi, but An Ming trained him into a half-cloud rider.
The first time Qingque discovered the results of his training was during a card game with Emperor Huan Qiong Yu after skipping class. With an excited “Win!”, the card table was slapped into pieces by the God of Birds.
The card players around her all looked at Qingque, the weak girl, as if they had seen a ghost. This card table...isn't it made of marble? How can it be broken?
Later, the famous Mahjong God was able to smash the skull of the evil creature into pieces with just a piece of mahjong.
Using cards as swords is a good story.
But that’s all in the past. Right now, Qingque is just a little girl who has not yet officially joined the Taibusi.
An Ming did have the idea of accepting a disciple, and Qingque had also been recognized by Fu Xuan, so as the master of Yuque Sword, he would bestow some of his inheritance on Qingque.
As for what level of enlightenment one can reach, it depends on Qingque himself.
An Ming just wanted to leave some traces.
"Long time no see, An Ming. Regarding the Tai Shi Yan you mentioned to me before," outside the courtyard, Jing Yuan leaned lazily against the door and knocked on it, holding a pot of sake in his hand.
"Xuan'er won't let me drink."
"Fu Qing is not here again, now it's just you and me."
Jing Yuan sat at the stone table with a smile on his face, and as he looked at the peach tree, he sighed, "More than 20 years have passed in a flash."
An Ming took out the wine bottle and put it on the table, then took some salted peanuts, glanced outside the door to make sure that Fu Xuan was not there, then took the bottle and poured two glasses.
Xuan'er won't say anything if you have a drink occasionally.
"How is Taishiyan?"
"【Sui Huang】 is naturally qualified to be the core of Zhu Ming," Jing Yuan took the wine bottle and recalled the results obtained a few days ago, "I'm afraid you will have to go to the Zhu Ming Engine Center in person."
"... step out of this courtyard?"
An Ming was silent for a long time, then he looked towards the bamboo forest outside the courtyard, "What's your opinion?"
"Of course I promised it, but it can't be discovered by outsiders," Jing Yuan certainly got Hua's instructions, otherwise it would harm An Ming.
"Thank the Marshal for me."
An Ming raised the wine bottle and clinked it with Jing Yuan's. In the end, they both just took a sip, just to celebrate this hard-earned moment.
Before leaving, Jing Yuan left behind his credentials for traveling to Zhu Ming, which were naturally forged to provide a reliable identity. He also only gave An Ming one month.
Regardless of the outcome, An Ming must return to this courtyard in one month, which is also the minimum requirement for Huawei to maintain the verdict.
