Life on Langya Mountain is relaxed and leisurely, and more than two months have passed in a flash.
During this period of time, Zhou Chen has been studying various miscellaneous studies with his master, Lao Pavilion Master Lin. However, he has not had much contact with miscellaneous studies such as Qimen Dunjia and Five Elements Bagua before, and he has no martial arts knowledge in this area.
He is extremely talented, and even though his mental attributes are already very high, it is still very difficult to learn.
This is not beyond the expectations of Pavilion Master Lin. He has lived for so many years and has seen countless geniuses, but even a genius cannot be good at everything.
Although he has been staying in Langya Mountain, Zhou Chen and Gong Yu have been exchanging letters, and he also knows that Gong Yu is doing well recently, so he can stay in Langya Mountain with peace of mind.
In the study, Pavilion Master Lin put away the slips.
"Xiao Chen, I think you have been restless these past few days and are not suitable to continue studying. That's the end of today's lesson."
Zhou Chen replied sheepishly: "I'm sorry, Master, I've really been a little absent-minded recently."
More than two months have passed, and Gong Yu is not far away from giving birth. Even though Zhou Chen has been a father many times, he is still nervous and worried this time.
In addition, Li Gang and others sent news that as the weather got colder, Mei Changsu's health was also affected, and the situation in the capital was also changing.
Pavilion Master Lin nodded and said: "I can understand your thoughts. During this period of time, I have basically taught you almost everything. The rest needs to be understood and learned by yourself slowly. You
If you want to go down the mountain, you can go now."
"Master, are you planning to go to sea after the new year?"
"Well, I made an agreement with Lin Chen to spend the New Year in the mountains before leaving."
Zhou Chen said: "Master, I will see you off when the time comes."
Pavilion Master Lin showed a gentle smile. At this age, he has taken a clear view of many things, but he still cares about his son and apprentice.
Zhou Chen went down the mountain without much fanfare. He just said something to his master, Lao Pavilion Master Lin, and his senior brother Lin Chen, and then quietly went down the mountain.
On the way to Jinling City, he went to the Qinhuai River and stayed with Wan Bo for a few days.
Zhou Chen likes ancient times very much. In this era, as long as you have the ability, even if you have many women, no one will call you a scumbag. Three wives and four concubines are the norm.
Just say that among the high officials of the imperial court, even the so-called Qingliu, which one does not have several concubines?
Wan Bo is still as gentle as before. No matter when Zhou Chen passes by, she will serve Zhou Chen wholeheartedly.
Zhou Chen also likes Bang Bo very much, and enjoys having fun with Bang Bo and exchanging piano music...
A few days later, there was only more than a month left before the Chinese New Year. After Zhou Chen said goodbye to Wan Bo, he rode his horse and walked slowly towards Jinling City along the official road.
When he was less than ten miles away from Jinling City, Zhou Chen suddenly heard a violent sound of horse hoofbeats. From the sound, it seemed that there were at least dozens of horsemen galloping.
Looking back, he saw dozens of people and horses galloping towards him from behind. As they approached him, their speed suddenly slowed down.
Zhou Chen saw the person on the lowest horse at a glance. The other person obviously saw him, so he immediately slowed down.
"His Royal Highness Prince Jing."
"Mr. Chen."
That's right, the dozens of horses galloping towards us were none other than those led by Prince Jing.
Zhou Chen was very surprised to see Prince Jing here, and Jamel Xiao was equally surprised to see Zhou Chen.
Jamel Xiao was the first to ask: "I heard from Mr. Su that he went to Langya Mountain a few months ago. Did he just come back?"
Although he did not know the true identities of Zhou Chen and Mei Changsu, he also knew that Zhou Chen and Mei Changsu were good friends and were on the same path, so he did not hide his acquaintance with Mei Changsu in front of Zhou Chen.
.
Zhou Chen said: "It is true that he has returned from Langya Mountain. His Highness, Prince Jing, has been full of troubles all the way. He has also just returned to the capital from other places?"
When he left the capital, the prince had already fallen. The current Daliang court should be the moment when Prince Yu and Prince Jing were facing each other. Logically speaking, Prince Jing would not leave the capital at will at this time.
Jamel Xiao said: "I was ordered to go to Yuezhou and other places to control the famine. After finishing the matters there, I returned to Beijing. I didn't expect to meet Mr. by such a coincidence."
He was very polite to Zhou Chen, because Zhou Chen was not only a good friend of Mei Changsu, he had also rescued the Empress Dowager, and he was a top expert in the world. For someone like him who was born as a military general, even if he had a noble status, he still
I have a strong admiration for people with strong martial arts skills.
Hearing Jamel Xiao's words, Zhou Chen suddenly felt something in his heart. He has been studying on Langya Mountain for more than two months. Although he will also receive messages from Gong Yu and Li Gang, there is a delay, so for the situation in the capital,
, and don’t know much about it.
I remember that there seemed to be a section in the plot where when Prince Jing left the capital, Prince Yu and Xia Jiang teamed up to target Prince Jing.
'However, Wei Zheng has my warning, so he shouldn't be caught by Xia Jiang like in the plot, right?'
In order to cooperate with Mei Changsu's plan, Zhou Chen had already sent a letter to Wei Zheng before they came to the capital, asking Wei Zheng not to leave Yaowang Valley while they were executing the plan.
Wei Zheng is a smart man and should understand what he means.
As long as Wei Zheng is not caught, Xia Jiang will have no reason to threaten Prince Jing and Mei Changsu, and it will be even more difficult to sow discord between them.
"Sir, you also want to return to the capital, shall we come together?"
"OK."
Zhou Chen did not refuse Jamel Xiao's invitation and followed them into the city, which was much more convenient.
With Prince Jing leading the way, Zhou Chen entered the Jinling City Gate very easily this time. When he was at the gate, he said goodbye to Prince Jing.
"Your Highness Prince Jing, I will take my leave now."
"Sir, go slowly, I have to go to the palace to return to my life."
Zhou Chen and King Jing had just separated and hadn't gone far when they suddenly noticed Lie Zhanying hurried to King Jing's side. But before Lie Zhanying could speak to King Jing, King Yu led his people to meet King Jing.
Making him frown.
He left immediately and quickly without stopping for more.
Originally, he was planning to go back to his mansion directly, but after seeing this scene, he decided to go to the Su Mansion first to find out what major events had happened in the capital recently.
Su Mansion!
Mei Changsu had a cold attack due to weather conditions, so he had to recuperate for several days. He only recovered a little in the past two days.
After the men sent out told Mei Changsu the information they had gathered, his expression suddenly changed.
Zhou Chen did not enter the Su Mansion openly, but sneaked in quietly. When he arrived at the Su Mansion, he found Mei Changsu gathering with everyone.
As soon as Zhou Chen approached Mei Changsu's room, Xiao Feiliu suddenly rushed out.
"who?"
Fei Liu's exclamation attracted the attention of Mei Changsu and others in the room, and they all stood up involuntarily.
Fei Liu was about to take action when he suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"Xiao Feiliu has made some progress again."
I saw Zhou Chen slowly falling from the roof.
The moment they saw Zhou Chen appear, Li Gang and Zhen Ping both shouted excitedly: "Sir, you are finally back."
Mei Changsu's solemn expression also revealed a smile: "Did you just come back?"
Zhou Chen nodded to Mei Changsu and said: "Li Gang and the others sent me a message saying that you were not in good health. They were worried and asked me to come back and have a look. It happened that Gong Yu was about to give birth, so I came back.
, I just entered the city with Prince Jing, and it looks like something big happened?"
As he spoke, he looked at the silver-haired old man beside him.
"Master Su Lao Valley, why are you here? Could it be that something happened to Wei Zheng?"
Although Su Lao Valley Master was older and had a higher seniority, he still had an embarrassed look on his face at this time.
"Oh, it's our fault that we didn't listen to your warning, sir, and that's why Wei Zheng was caught by the people from the Xuanjing Division."
Zhou Chen suddenly raised his eyebrows: "What's going on? Didn't I specifically tell you not to let Wei Zheng leave Yaowang Valley within one or two years? With the natural dangers of Yaowang Valley, even Xia Jiang himself
Even if we take action, it’s impossible to capture Wei Zheng, right?”
The master of Su Lao Valley was even more embarrassed. It was Mei Changsu who came to the rescue: "Xiao Chen, you can't blame them. Recently, there was a big deal in Yaowang Valley that could not be refused. Wei Zheng had no choice but to take action. Who knew that by such a coincidence, he was
People from the Xuanjing Division were ambushed."
"Okay, don't stand outside and talk. Come in first. Now that you are back, we will have more choices."
Mei Changsu greeted everyone into the room. After everyone sat down, he spoke again.
"Wei Zheng was arrested. This is a result that no one wants to see. But now that it has happened, it is useless to talk about anything else. The most important thing is how to rescue Wei Zheng."
