Chapter 27 Fighting Eagle Tower
After a riot in the evening, the birthday party of Prince Zuo's mansion had long since dispersed. Jiang Yan, who had been on birthday today, was so angry that many generals and counselors were silent. Curfews began in the black city, and the streets were full of officers and soldiers searching for the impossible enemy bandits.
In front of the Wangfu Street, Chang Shi Jian and Wu You came out of Prince Zuo’s Mansion and returned to the restaurant together.
Wu You, wearing a Taoist robe, had a deep gloom in his eyebrows. Little Taohua's father died at the hands of the wolf guards. Although it is natural to kill the thief, he should still be repaid. The cause of the chaos in Renyitang was that someone assassinated Xu Buling and leaked the news. No one was blamed for his ideas in the world, but this blood hatred was naturally considered Xu Buling, but he had just seen Xu Buling's skills, and the ten martial masters in the world were just like this.
Back at the restaurant, Wu You sat down at the wine table by the window. After a moment of silence, he put his personal grudges in his heart and looked at Chang Shi Jian opposite him. Seeing that Chang Shi Jian kept pressing the hilt of the sword and sighed softly.
After Wu You escaped from Chang'an City, he took his brothers, wife and daughter to Jiangnan for a long distance, and found a suitable master for Xiao Taohua. While visiting everywhere, he met Chang Shi Jian who was walking around Jiangnan.
Changshi Jian is a person from the Central Plains "Dragon Eagle Tower" and has been recruiting talents in Jiangnan all year round.
As for the details of the "Eagle Tower", Wu You was not very clear, but he could guess a few points based on his name alone. Ten years ago, the imperial court's "Iron Eagle Fighting Deer" was destroyed, and countless people in the martial arts world were destroyed in this catastrophe. Of course, there were also people who escaped by chance, who were burdened with deep hatred in the sea of blood and tried every opportunity to act.
The Eagle Tower appeared after the Iron Eagle and Deer Fighting. It was not the most popular among all the rebellious forces. However, because of its cruel methods, there were many masters under the sect, and it shook the court as soon as it appeared. The poisonous soldier Li Hansheng in the Eagle Tower ranked first among the gangsters wanted by the Investigation Department for many years. The remaining gangsters were also famous and were the only wolf guards in the jianghu that they wanted to hide when they saw it.
Wu You had great skills in light, and his brother was chased by the wolf guards until he died and had a blood feud with the court. After encountering Changshi Sword Queen, he was naturally taken into the Eagle Tower.
As a newcomer who just joined the gang, Wu You didn't know how many people there were in the Eagle Tower and where the nest was. He just followed Chang Shi Jian and walked around the world. This time he came to Heicheng thousands of miles away to make the jade pendant in the hand of Zuo Prince Jiang Yan, and through Chang Shi Jian's connections, he found a suitable master for his niece. At present, it seems that this trip was a waste of time.
"Brother Chang, Xu Buling took away the jade pendant. It is hard to get it back. What should we do next?"
When Chang Shi Jian heard Wu You’s inquiry, he frowned and thought for a while:
"The jade pendant must be brought back, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the above. Xu Buling... Alas, seeing his skills just now, I am afraid he is about the same as the senior in the building. I will definitely not be able to get it back alone, so I still have to go back and report my life before making plans..."
Wu You nodded: "I have some grudges with Na Xu Buling. If I can use it, Brother Chang will just speak."
Chang Shijian thought for a while: "The masters under King Su are free and the other ones, and Xu Buling himself, we have no choice but to do it for the time being. I can go back alone to report my life. You can send your niece to the capital of Northern Qi first. If Zuo Gong is willing to take it, I will find a way for you if I don't want it."
Wu You raised his hand to express his gratitude and thought for a while: "The Zuo Guoshi of Northern Qi is indeed a contemporary strange man, but he is far away from the enemy country in the north of the desert. I am afraid that Xiao Taohua will not be used to life on the grassland... I heard that there is also an old senior on Yuelu Mountain, I don't know Brother Chang..."
Chang Shijian raised his hand gently: "The old god in Yuelu Mountain has a strange temper. I don't know which side he stands on. And he always looks for someone, and no one wants his share. If it weren't for this, we would have visited him long ago and carried him back to the building to offer him."
Wu You nodded slightly when he heard this. It was not easy to meet a famous teacher. He could not speak much at the moment...
--------
On the west side of Heicheng, Suzhou City, 600 miles away, is still calm. It may take a few days for the earth-shaking feat to be passed back.
The vast palace in the city was brightly lit, and maids and servants came and went. Under the supervision of the nanny Dingxiang, they carried out various treasures of mountains and seas from the warehouse, recorded them on the gift list, and placed them on the carriage.
It was a long journey from Suzhou to Jiangnan. In order to make Xu Buling and Mrs. Lu feel more comfortable on the road, the housekeeper had already gone to Lanzhou to prepare a large ship, as well as the betrothal gifts she carried, daily food and clothing, etc., which could not be sorted out in less than ten days or half a month.
The courtyard of the back house is also similar in the scene.
Mrs. Lu, who had just lived in Suzhou for less than a month, began to pack up the items she carried with her again.
Women in this world, whether it is poor people or royal families, it is not easy for women to travel everywhere, and only those unruly and polite heroes have the opportunity to go around.
Mrs. Lu lived in a high-walled courtyard since she was a child. She went to Chang'an after she grew up and had a lot of knowledge in books. She might have gone to Chang'an once when she really went on a long journey. She still rushed on the road and had no free time to stroll around.
This time I went out with my baby, and I could travel around the mountains and rivers on the way, and the end was my hometown that I had not returned to for many years. Mrs. Lu was in a very good mood and couldn't wait.
In the boudoir, Mrs. Lu folded her bellyband and underwear in front of the cabinet and put it into the box, humming a popular little song among the neighborhood. She just took a shower and was wearing only a close-fitting lotus-colored little dress with hair draped over her back. She occasionally bowed and picked up the clothes under the cabinet. The thin pants were tightly stretched and full of tension, which made people jealous.
Xiao Xiang'er didn't get up to clean up, lay lazily on the soft couch, her eyes stayed at Mrs. Lu's lower circumference. She didn't know what she remembered. She looked down at herself, then slightly put away the skirt around her waist and looked behind her, then looked at Mrs. Lu a few more glances and gently cut it.
Mrs. Lu was packing things in a gentle manner. When she heard Xiao Xianger's slightly mocking tone, she turned around:
"Xiang'er, what's wrong?"
Xiao Xiang'er shook the round fan listlessly and said casually:
"Hongluan, you will suffer a lot in the future."
Mrs. Lu was naturally puzzled, frowned for no reason, and turned around and continued to pack up:
"What a bitter end?"
"If you don't tell you, you'll know then."
Xiao Xiang'er looked like a "members who came here", sighed softly, and then turned her eyes elsewhere.
Mrs. Lu folded her clothes, opened the cabinet next to her and continued to clean up. After thinking about it, she asked softly:
"Where has Ling'er been? I haven't seen anyone for several days, and it seems that there is nothing serious about the royal family."
