Chapter 31 Pen and Sword

Along the way, Zhong Li deliberately avoided various towns in the Great Zhou territory and only stayed in Luobei City for a moment. In addition to avoiding the eyeliner of the Supervision Office to avoid unnecessary trouble, he also wanted to make several people closer to nature and use the vastness of the world to cleanse the students' ordinary hearts. So after a month, several teenage children were in the sky and slept in the open air, with a little more dust than the first time they were on the road, but they were clearer.

Originally, Zhong Li thought that Zhao Xifeng and others would inevitably be novel in the pavilions, towers and charming characters in the city when they first entered the capital. However, after the battle at Concaojian Valley, everyone's mind belonged to cultivation. Although they occasionally paid attention to the prosperous street scene outside the window, they did not take it very seriously.

Among the few people, the most relaxed person was Zhao Xifeng, who had just woken up from the divine concentration. He changed his state of enlightenment in the trance a few days ago. He was lazy and didn't even look at Long Yabi in the corner of the carriage, as if his strong desire to draw the sword was fake. Only Zhong Li could see that Zhao Xifeng's eyes were wandering around, but he was avoiding the direction of the sword. Obviously, he was still jealous.

So Zhong Li pinched Long Yabi and stuffed it into Zhao Xifeng's arms, and the latter's body immediately stiffened.

"Do not escape when practicing," Zhong Li said solemnly, "Faced with it."

Zhao Xifeng hesitated for a while, nodded slowly, reached out to hold the hilt of the sword, and his whole body returned to a trembling state.

At some point, four middle-aged men in yellow clothes were around the car that was originally walking alone. Looking at the outfit, it was no different from the Huangji Sect in the Drum Tower in Panlong Town. It was obviously a disciple of the Zhong family.

These four people were exhausted, and although they had a look of fatigue in their eyes, their figures were still upright. It can be seen that these people must be the secret guards of the people of Panlong Academy when they were traveling eastward. There should be more such people along the way. They did not show up until then. Until the carriage ran at full speed, they did not care about hiding their bodies and followed them with their body skills. From this point of view, even if Cao Xiyun did not take action, he was confident that he would escort Zhong Li back to the capital safely. Who would be Zhong Zhichen? How could he allow his daughter's safety to appear even if there was a trace of theoretical difference.

After entering the city from the west, the carriage did not turn to Huangji Sect, but instead circled around the city, bought some clothes for Zhao Xifeng and others, and then left the city on the same road, came to an inn outside the western suburbs, and arranged a few people to stay.

After several people settled down, Zhong Li said goodbye to the four of them, saying that she was going to inquire about the news in Beijing now, and after there was confirmed information, she would inform Zhao Xifeng.

Zhao Xifeng's room is on the second floor of the inn. Looking down from the window, you can see a restaurant opposite the street. There are two bare peach trees downstairs. On the branches is a woman in a crimson long skirt. The hem of the skirt flutters back and forth with her legs, adding a touch of bright color to the winter capital.

"I think this building is not very good, it is similar to the original one of the old Sun family. Look at that woman, who climbs trees in broad daylight and is not much better than the women in the northwest." Dong Erpang, who was in the same room as Zhao Xifeng, looked around and curled his lips. The meaning on the surface was probably to express his disdain for this world-class city by despising Shengjing's restaurant. In fact, he was dissatisfied with the fact that he had not seen Zhong Zhichen, the leader of the Five Great Masters.

Zhao Xifeng ignored him, closed the window and sat back on the bed, looking at Long Yabi in his hand in a daze.

Ada, I'm here to save you.

After each court meeting, Pei Yuanhou would sit in Shunhezhai for a while, drink a cup of soy milk and eat two plates of side dishes. At this time, the prime minister of the dynasty would never talk about official business.

But today's situation is somewhat exceptional. There was a person sitting opposite Pei Yuanhou for the first time. Moreover, the man's big horse golden sword had an indifferent smile on his face. In fact, he was no less than the prime minister of the dynasty who was under one person in the Great Zhou Dynasty!

A six-foot long sword was thrown at the table where Pei Yuanhou puts soy milk and side dishes on weekdays. Who could actually meet Pei Yuanhou with a sword?

"Some people say that during the past twenty years of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are three main reasons why I have been able to keep my initiative in the process of fighting wits and powers with the grassland barbarians. "A sword, a picture, a pen, a sword, is naturally the one I am Zhong, the picture is Mr. Chun's star map, and that pen is naturally the Spring and Autumn Pen that governs the world with Chinese in Pei Xiang. What does the Prime Minister think of this statement?"

The swordsman who has such a momentum and qualification to sit against Pei Yuanhou, of course, is Zhong Tiaochen, the first of the five great masters in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Pei Yuanhou looked at the huge sword placed on the table calmly and said calmly: "Mr. He supported the backbone of the Great Zhou century with one sword. It is no exaggeration to praise this. Tianqingsi Town National Star Map has a reputation for the past century. As for me, I am just doing some errands to repair and repair, and I am as famous as Master Zhong and Mr. Chunhao."

Faced with the prime minister's reverence, Zhong Tiaochen nodded and said without hesitation: "I also think so, it's only been more than 30 years since you Pei Yuanhou's journey to his prime minister. For more than 70 years before that, the Great Zhou Dynasty had me, Tianqingsi, the four army in Zhenbei, and the royal family's green blood, who defended the country for the people and resisted barbarians in the north, and never weakened the momentum."

"What the sir said is." Faced with Zhong Tiaochen's humiliation in person, the face of Pei Xiang's follower had already changed, but Pei Yuanhou still looked calm and spitted on his face.

Zhong Tiaochen laughed a lot, reached out and patted the sword on the table. After pondering for a while, his expression suddenly became cold and said, "Since that's the case, my daughter Zhong's daughter came back from Panlong Town to study and return to the east. You ordered the Supervision Office to obstruct it repeatedly and even use engineering crossbows. Is this a matter of intention? Do you really think that my sword can't be broken and your pen?"

The air in Shunhezhai instantly condensed. Zhong Tiaochen obviously had no power, but the two masters of the Zhiwei Realm around Pei Yuanhou felt that the Yuanling in his body had been suppressed and almost frozen. It was difficult to even raise his fingers. They had no doubt that if Zhong Tiaochen had the intention to kill at this time, as long as he looked up at them, they would die.

At the center of all pressure, Pei Yuanhou, who was obviously just an ordinary person, was still calm, as if the person in front of him was not the number one swordsman of the Great Zhou on the surface, but just an ordinary old friend who lost his temper. After pondering for a moment, he whispered: "People are among the dragons and phoenixes, and Pei dared not move lightly, but if he continues to get entangled with the wanted criminals in the Supervision Department, if there is any accident, Pei will be sad that the Great Zhou will lose a pillar in the future."

Once these secret threatening words were spoken, the two escorts behind him were frightened. If Zhong Tiaochen drew his sword to kill people at this time, no matter how powerful Ren Pei Yuanhou was, he would not be able to stand the sword in front of him.

Before it was over, Pei Yuanhou continued: "Have you ever thought that thirty years ago, the Northern Barbarians could not cross the south. If there was no one day in the Great Zhou Dynasty, I, Pei, might be able to protect the mountains and rivers forever?"
