Su Ling was also surprised. Chen Hai refused to marry Dong Ning on the spot. Dong Ning was too ashamed and angry. How could he send any letter to Chen Hai?
She also wanted to joke that Dong Ning might have smeared evil poison in the letter to avenge today''s humiliation. However, seeing that Chen Hai opened the letter, the whole person was frozen there like thunder. She leaned over in surprise and saw that Dong Ning wrote a few words in the letter: "since you are ruthless, please don''t stay in Meiwu castle for a moment!"
Su Ling also sighed. Unexpectedly, Dong''s proud daughter really liked the reckless goods in front of her. Humiliated by the reckless goods in public, she didn''t forget to send someone to remind him to run for his life.
Chen Hai was frozen there. He really didn''t know what to say. He wanted to turn around and go to Dong Ning to try to recover his engagement with Dong Ning.
However, reason told Chen Hai that it was done, and Dong Shou, the Marquis of Qin Mu, would never accept his repeated humiliation. At this time, he was not qualified to participate in Dong''s struggle to win the line, so he had to leave.
They must also leave immediately before Dong Shou reacts; Before that, they just guessed, but Dong Ning should know her father''s temper best. Then they really can''t delay for a moment.
Chen Hai simply cleaned up, and then ran to say goodbye to his Uncle Chen lie. Taking advantage of the night, he flew directly across the Qiuye river with Wu Meng, Qi Hanjiang and Su Ling, and rushed to fujiaoling on the other side of the river to visit Zhao Rong, who was training his new soldier in the West Garden at this time.
The news hasn''t reached Fu Jiaoling yet, but Zhao Rong is surprised to see Chen Hai''s investment at night, but he doesn''t ask why Chen Hai''s investment at night. When Chen Hai says he wants to see Wen Boyuan, he immediately arranges someone to run to Wen Boyuan''s house for Chen hai to report.
Maybe Wen Boyuan knew what happened at night. Before dawn, he directly arranged for him to take his special chariot and the escort of more than ten Su Wei troops as the middle man of Su Wei army to the west garden to pick up Chen Hai into Yanjing city.
Wen Boyuan is a general of Suwei army. At this time, it can be said that he has become one of the most powerful figures in Yanzhou. However, his residence in the east of Yanran palace is beyond Chen Hai''s imagination.
Wen Boyuan has several residences in Yanjing City, one of which is located in the East camp of the Su Wei army.
Dongdaying is located at the north foot of Shenling mountain. Previously, there were a small number of garrisons, which were only reserved as the standby camp of the Suwei army. However, after the dispute over imperial power came to an end, the Suwei army expanded rapidly, and more than 20000 soldiers have settled in dongdaying.
Wen Boyuan''s residence was in the camp city of the Suwei army, and it could not be specially protected; Many orchid bamboo, pine and plum trees are planted in the secluded courtyard of the three entry pattern. It was just the beginning of winter, and the yard did not try to regulate the weather. At this time, the vegetation withered and the yellow leaves fell, which was a bit bleak after winter.
If this small courtyard were not located in the camp of the Su Wei army, it would look like an ordinary small family in Yanjing city. It would be difficult to be associated with the powerful Wen Boyuan at this time.
There were no slaves around the yard. Chen Hai, Wu Meng, Qi Hanjiang and Su Ling drove into the dongdaying camp of the Su Wei army and then entered the yard. In addition to seeing two old palace slaves cleaning up the fallen leaves in the yard, only the old man who claimed to be in charge of the Wen government sat with them in the hall waiting for Wen Boyuan to come back.
The steward of Wen Boyuan''s house gave his surname Gu, but did not introduce his name. Chen Hai and his family were inconvenient to ask questions, so they had to politely match Gu.
Gu Lao was also an internal official who retired from the palace. When he was young, he even served the former Emperor in the imperial study. When he was old, he retired from the palace, but he had no family or job. He came to Wenboyuan house and lived in the house. He said he was the steward of the house, but Wenboyuan had little contact with courtiers and lived in the camp of the Suwei army. He was really very idle. He should be a pension for the elderly.
Gu laobaijing''s face is full of wrinkles, and there are senile spots on the back of his hands, wrists and face. He should be hundreds of years old -- in terms of his experience of serving the former Emperor, he should be 90 years old -- his eyebrows are also snow-white, but there is a light golden pupil in his eyes. Obviously, he also has profound cultivation in the middle and even later stages of enlightenment.
And then look at the old light golden pupil, the light condenses but does not disperse, which gives people a sense of light and flame, and perhaps has mastered the complete true meaning of the Tao.
Seeing this scene, Chen Hai was very confused.
The life of the xuanxiu in Mingqiao state is between 120 and 150 years old. Since the history of Yanzhou, no xuanxiu in Mingqiao state has been able to live beyond the limit of 150 years.
Therefore, for xuanxiu in Mingqiao realm, once he is over 70 or 80 years old, the physical Qi and blood will decline year by year, but before he is dying, the physical body will not be like this?
There is only one possibility, that is, Gu began to practice when he was 70 or 80 years old. At that time, his face was old, and then he practiced hard for more than ten years and stepped into the state of Mingqiao again.
Qi and blood have long been exhausted at the age of 70 or 80, and the internal officials are all false Yang people who have been castrated. They began to cultivate at the age of 70 or 80, and they can even cultivate into the state of Ming know-how. What kind of divine skill and fairy secret can do this?
Or is there a magic formula, like the sunflower scripture "if you want to practice magic skills, you must first come to the palace", which is only suitable for castrated people to practice?
Chen Haixin was surprised and suspicious. He found that he still knew too little about Yanzhou, Yingshi royal family and Yanran Palace - Yingshi royal family and many sects, including Taoist temple, can be inherited for thousands of years. Naturally, they have an indestructible heritage. Moreover, according to various sects, Wei Ziya, the only land immortal in Yanzhou who lived more than 800 years, was sitting in the Shenling mountain.
Wen Boyuan has something important to do and can''t come back for a moment and a half. Chen Hai sits there chatting with the old Gu. He finds that Gu''s cultivation is not as good as Wen Boyuan, but he has a strong record of knowledge and amazing knowledge.
From astronomy and geography, metaphysical practice, Dan casting, mechanism puppets, palace construction and even troop arrangement, it is said that the caretaker who helps Wen Boyuan take care of the chores of the residence is all familiar, and even the source is clearly remembered, as if it were a living encyclopedia.
If Chen Hai hadn''t integrated the thinking of the two worlds, he often had ideas that others couldn''t reach. Talking about organ puppets and the science of arranging troops and arrays is not the opponent of the manager.
Others thought that Chen Hai had some reservations in writing the actual record of military training, but in fact, in addition to his deep study of the secret form of martial arts, Chen Hai truthfully transcribed his military management ideas of integrating the two worlds in recent years.
It must be said that Chen Hai has reservations about the arrangement of troops. At this time, the management and use of troops are far from mature. He needs to accumulate more knowledge to have room for further improvement.
In addition, Chen Hai has devoted a lot of energy to the study of mechanism puppets in order to study divine aircraft chariots. However, in addition to his very novel ideas and exquisite designs that surpass the people in Yanzhou, he has just stepped on the threshold of many studies on mechanism puppet techniques and the prohibition of FA array itself.
Therefore, in front of Gu, Chen Hai has no special scruples. He can''t wait for Wen Boyuan, and it''s inconvenient to walk around in the yard. He is accompanying Gu to drink tea and chat happily.
Chen Hai rushed to Wen Boyuan''s house in the early morning. After talking about this, he chatted all day unconsciously. When Wen Boyuan came back, the sky was full of stars.
Wen Boyuan, as a general of Suwei army, is one of the commanders of the three armed forces of the Beijing camp. There are still more than a dozen legitimate guards around him to guard security.
These people Chen Hai had never seen before in the Xiyuan army. They were all young officials under the age of 30, wearing purple robes and purple armor, and carrying the same style of spirit swords behind them. They were all sword cultivation in Mingqiao territory. Their advance and retreat steps and breath were very similar. Chen Hai guessed that they could organize an extremely strong sword array to resist the enemy when they met the enemy.
Chen Hai also heard in Tongbei mansion that the emperor was rebuilt into a Taoist pill with the help of a group of officials in Yanran palace. However, he was shocked by the sudden emergence of so many young experts in Yanran palace.
In addition to more than ten eunuchs, there was also a tall middle-aged eunuch who came back with Wen Boyuan. Probably when he entered the yard, he heard that Chen Hai and Gu were discussing the arrangement of troops. When Wen Boyuan entered the door, he laughed and said, "elder brother Gu has been living in the orchid yard for many years. It is probably the first time that he has met a little friend who can talk for so long?"
"You''re back." Gu said he was the steward of the Wen mansion. When he saw Wen Boyuan coming in with another middle-aged eunuch, he didn''t get up to greet him, but just nodded slightly. It was regarded as a return ceremony. He could see that he had very deep qualifications in the palace. He said he was the steward of the Wen mansion, and more accurately, he should live in seclusion here.
At this time, Chen Hai couldn''t take it big. He stood up with Wu Meng, Qi Hanjiang and Su Ling and saluted Wen Boyuan and another person.
"I''m Zhang Zhong, the waiter of the yellow gate," the man said with a smile when he returned the gift to Chen Hai without Wen Boyuan''s introduction, "Boyuan praises you for your talent in using troops. We old people in Yanran palace have a cocoon in our ears. Boyuan also focuses on the Suwei army to promote your method of running the army. He has admired you for a long time and specially came to meet you. I hope Suwei general will not blame Zhang for being too abrupt."
In terms of rank, general Su Wei is equivalent to the servant of the yellow gate, but Chen Hai sees that Zhang Zhong is also a cultivation achievement in the Taoist realm. Standing there gives people a sense of the abyss and unfathomable. He knows that Zhang Zhong must be a direct Minister of Yanran palace who benefits from the trust of the Heavenly Emperor. The emperor''s family is Zhenglong, which is by no means comparable to general Su Wei, who still needs to rely on Wen Boyuan to protect his life.
Seriously speaking, Wen Boyuan was also an official from Yanran palace. He was assigned to King Yingshu as a standing attendant when Emperor Yitian was on the western expedition. He didn''t expect to become a wonderful move for the emperor to finally win the imperial power.
Now, hearing that Zhang Zhong and Wen Boyuan are old people in Yanran palace, Chen Hai thought to himself that although the cultivation didn''t step into the realm of Taoism, Wen Boyuan and Zhang Zhong called each other as "big brother", and they must not be simple people in Yanran palace.
