The Book of Troubled Times

Suzaku never thought that one day he would work with other women, let alone compete on the same stage. If someone had said this to her a few years ago, she would have been torn in half alive.

But if she must choose one, then maybe she can only accept Sanniang.

Because since Chi Chi's mother passed away, Sanniang has been Suzaku's best and only friend.

When Suzaku debuted, she was just an underage girl. At that time, Sanniang was well-informed, skilled in martial arts, sassy, ​​and a girl with a story. She was cold-blooded about everything and was too lazy to fight, which was very suitable for Suzaku.

At that time, the previous generation of the Sixiang Sect was a loser. The main reason was that the followers were basically a garbage shelter where the remnants of the overthrown dynasty gathered. If you imagine the level of Nanming, you will know that the previous generation of the Sixiang Sect was roughly At what level, including Chi Chi's mother, a former princess, her ability and IQ can only be considered above average, and she is already considered the top leader within the Four Symbols Sect.

Suzaku is the most special. Huangfu Yongxian was a former general of the previous dynasty, but his family of generals on the border of the town was very different from those of those people. At that time, he had returned to Daxia and had no involvement with others, and he did not agree with the teachings of the Four Symbols Sect. However, after a few years, I finally felt that Xia Longyuan was not very good, so he just turned a blind eye and watched his little girl being "deceived into religion", pretending not to know, and leaving a way out.

It is conceivable that the addition of Huangfu Qing, a tiger girl like the general, is simply outstanding in the Four Symbols Sect with tutoring and talent, and she will soon add all kinds of responsibilities. When Fela's unbearable older generation gradually died in rivers and lakes battles or court purges, and the White Tiger Saint, who had high hopes for her, died in Luojiazhuang, the burden on Suzaku's young shoulders became heavier and heavier, and she was under a lot of pressure.

Sanniang's joining gave Suzaku a shot in the arm, one for advancement, one for defense, one for war, and one for internal affairs. Both of them had no selfish intentions. They were a perfect match, twin stars shining brightly. The Four Symbols Sect has overcome obstacles for more than ten years and has emerged as the top demon sect in the world. This is not due to Suzaku alone. Sanniang seems to have no outstanding achievements in it and is of immeasurable value.

She said she was showing off, but most of the time she didn't really show off. She just didn't like to get involved in power disputes and just did her own thing. The money alone was worth ten Suzakus. What's more, Sanniang's martial arts are not obvious, but she is higher than Suzaku. Once she becomes serious, she will shock the enemies every time, and she has saved the sect from countless crises.

Over the years, from a cardamom girl to a young woman in her thirties, whenever Suzaku is alone and confused, the first thing that flashes in her mind is Sanniang, who can be called the golden bridge she relies on most in her heart. The word "stable" is perfectly suitable to describe Xuanwu in Suzaku's heart.

God knows that this Jiahai Jinliang is becoming like this day by day... When Zhuque beat Sanniang in the morning, he really gritted his teeth. He didn't know whether he was more angry at her for cooperating with the man to subdue him, or at her for robbing him. .

Come on now, we all work together as one husband. Suzaku found that he was more emotionally accepting of this result than expected. He was more talkative than with Chi Chi, and much more accepting than with Tang Wanzhuang... At the same time, he also understood what Sanniang's fun was. .

It’s really interesting to see the smiling Sanniang, who usually doesn’t care about anything, moaning gracefully when a man makes her...

Suzaku couldn't help but stretched out his hand and touched Sanniang's trembling place.

I knew clearly that this might have bad consequences... but I couldn't help it. Sure enough, the man mistakenly thought that he was releasing a signal, and the next moment Suzaku Xuanwu was stacked on top of each other.

The good sisters who have been together for more than ten years faced each other, biting their lower lips and tilting their heads at the same time.

…………

"My venerables, are you happy?" After an unknown amount of time, Xia Chichi slowly walked onto the high platform with small square steps, her hands behind her back.

That posture still retains the template of having the center of gravity backward and ready to run. It is obvious that the one who is least willing to be with the master now is Xia Chichi.

That is not only the master, but also the queen... The master has not been worshiped openly, but it has its essence; the queen is not real, but it has its name. No matter how evil the little demon girl is, she has some taboos under the superposition of these dual attributes, and this stinky master is still a thief after his parents.

The refreshing feeling of serving tea has passed, but I still get angrier the more I think about it.

Fortunately, the battle at this moment has long ended, and the indescribable verbal service of the left and right sages has ended. Zhao Changhe was talking about business with the two sages. When they saw Xia belatedly coming over, the three people's faces were not red, and their hearts were not beating. Everyone said: "Is it too late to finish the ceremony?"

Xia Chichi took half a step back and took a defensive posture vigilantly.

"Ahem, what kind of expression is that..." Zhao Changhe said helplessly: "We are all dressed seriously..."

"Isn't it easy to take it off? You are so skilled."

"...I'm not a tough guy."

Xia Chichi's face was expressionless: "Really? Then I have to tell you a shocking news - not only have I completed the Four Elephants Ceremony, I have even completed the morning dynasty."

"..." The three of them looked at each other, almost burying their heads in their chests.

Zhao Changhe resolutely stopped talking and went straight to the topic: "We are discussing that Qing'er wants to break through the imperial realm. This kind of hunting cattle across the mountains is still a little short of the best. It is best to go to the extreme south to see it in person. But Now that big things are starting to happen and a lot of bad things are happening, we are considering whether Qing'er can go away... The deterrence brought by a imperial realm is not comparable to what it is now. It is worth delaying some things for this. You can measure what is important... "

Xia Chichi said: "No."

Suzaku asked curiously: "Why? In the early stage, I have finished the control of the inner palace and the reform of academic affairs. Now I feel that there is not much that needs to be done by me. Compared with other things, breaking the imperial guard is more important, right?"

"Because it is Chang He and his uncle who need to leave." Xia Chichi sighed: "In the past few days, Chang He has been forging knives and swords, and controlling the secret realm of the Ancestral Temple. These are all important things. To put it harshly, even if it depends on you Longque came to stabilize our relationship with Tang Wanzhuang. This was a huge contribution. It was regarded as the most important thing, not really playing. So Tang Qing and I...oh, Tang Wanzhuang, we didn't bother, I’m happy to see it come to fruition.”

Zhao Changhe: "..."

Suzaku blinked his eyes. Listening to this, why do you and Tang Wanzhuang belong to the same country now?

Well, for an emperor... indeed.

All I can say is that people's butts change so quickly... Suzaku has no doubt that it is not unusual for the emperor to deal with the "Four Elephant Ministers" one day in the future... But it is unlikely that this situation will evolve like this for everyone, because In essence, the person with the highest authority is Zhao Changhe, both within Sixiang and Tang Wanzhuang.

Xia Chichi didn't know what was going on in his master's mind, but he still introduced the situation: "In fact, we are in a precarious situation outside, and the situation of the barbarians in the north has always been the biggest haze in my mind and that of Tang Wanzhuang. Master has been in Huangshaji for a long time, and he is very concerned about the situation. There are a lot of things happening outside the Great Wall, and I still hope that I can take charge of it."

Sanniang: "Uh...don't you rely on Batu and Uncle Huangfu for this? How can I help?"

"General Huangfu is uneasy behind his back. Two days before Jinzhong, troops actually came to the capital, but Shao Zong fought them back. The current situation is worse than when Shanxi merchants sold grain and grass privately. And looking further west, Li Gongsi died here , what is the reaction of the Li family? Can the Hu people make a long detour after breaking through the pass and plundering? These things not only require news from Mobei in Huangshaji, but I also hope that my uncle can contact Ying Wu, who is in the northwest Have a foundation.”

Sanniang was silent.

Xia Chichi sighed and said: "There are two things that can make you feel at ease. One is that Bo's forehead was injured, and the relationship with Timur was instigated by the Book of Troubled Times. They are not very peaceful. The other is that it is snowing heavily in winter, so it is not suitable to mobilize troops. But this cannot be regarded as a direct conclusion, and we need to beware of surprise soldiers... There has been no movement in the past few days, which may not mean that there is really no movement. It may be that the intelligence is lagging. After all, we have watched the commotion for so long, but in fact it was not long and we did not have time. It’s normal to receive intelligence... Worst case scenario, they have already moved, maybe Batu’s head is gone.”

Zhao Changhe: "..."

"In addition, not to mention that General Huangfu is uneasy after his death, so are we. The Cui family in the south is uncomfortably silent, and they haven't even checked in yet. What should we do after the Wang family is defeated back to Langya? Further south... …”

"Stop, stop, stop..." Zhao Changhe pinched his head: "I know, I really should go to the Cui family."

Xia Chichi said: "If Master Uncle and Chang He have left, then only Tang Wanzhuang is the only strong man in charge of the capital, which is not enough. On the one hand, people like Lu Jianzhang are not completely reliable, and on the other hand, Chang He has been The unknown gods and demons shot back by the arrows may come back. The Reverend Suzaku has a long-standing reputation, and he is the closest to Yu Yu at this time. He is our sea-fixing needle and cannot be separated for the time being. If the Reverend feels free, what he should do is to investigate who the gods and demons are. What is its nature and where is it hiding?"

The three of them looked at Xia Chichi up and down with their hands folded. It was hard to imagine that this was a clear-headed being who was robbed of a man by his master and still laughed and was punished. But at this moment, the three of them suddenly remembered Xia Chichi's words before he decided to take over Jiangshan.

——Not only do I have to do it, I also have to pay off his debt.

She may really be the most suitable person for this position, a hundred times more suitable than Zhao Changhe himself.

But what Zhao Changhe was thinking about at the moment was the dragon chair when he drew the card. It was a position card, which meant that the starting position of the time travel was related to the throne. I originally thought it was because Chi Chi was of Xia Longyuan's bloodline, and many things after his debut revolved around this position, but now I discovered that this card seemed to refer to Xia Chi Chi himself.

If so, can the blind man who sent himself to Chi Chi really see the future?

Xia Chichi was saying: "If you want to go out, you should go find Tang Wanzhuang before leaving. She is not your target, but the Great Wall of this empire."
