Jade Emperor Mountain, Wu Wang Mansion.

The black sky covers above Xizi Lake, and fishing fires appear and disappear in the wind and snow.

The study room of the royal mansion built by the lake is brightly lit, the doors and windows are closed and the stove is burning, mixed with a faint smell of Chinese medicine.

King Song Siming of Wu was so angry that he sat on the couch and scolded in a deep voice:

"...I asked you to arrange someone to change the jade pendant. Who asked Xue Chengzhi to run to fight with Xu Buling? You won't say anything politely? Can you fight with a low attitude and chat well? It's better to fight, you haven't fought yet..."

Han Xianchu and Wang Zouyin stood up, exchanging eyes with each other, with a little disbelief on their faces.

They didn't expect that the only Wu Kui in Jiangnan would be beaten down by Xu Buling. They asked Xue Chengzhi to go over, intending to let Xue Chengzhi rely on his martial arts to force and induce him to exchange the jade pendant. They didn't expect that Xue Chengzhi really dared to hit Xu Buling, but fortunately he hadn't beaten, otherwise he would not be able to end.

There is also the Hongshanshui Village that was secretly recruited by the royal palace a few months ago to accumulate available soldiers. If he had known Xu Buling to make trouble in Hongshanshui Village, Xue Chengzhi should have appeared in advance to stop him. Even if he could not defeat him, he would be able to protect Hongshanshui Village.

But now it is obviously meaningless to say this. Now that the water village has been burned and the jade pendant has not been replaced, this matter has obviously been ruined.

Waiting for King Wu to finish his anger, Han Xianchu took a step forward to explain:

"I didn't know that Xu Buling would go to Hongshanshui Village in advance, and Xue Chengzhi didn't know the background of Hongshanshui Village, otherwise he would definitely stop him. As for fighting with Xu Buling... Xue Chengzhi has a high status in the Jianghu and has a bad temper, and Xu Buling has a bad temper. He was expected to fight with a disagreement..."

The King of Wu was too lazy to listen to this explanation, and frowned and said coldly:

"Even Xue Chengzhi failed, how can I get the jade back now?"

Wang Zouyin thought about it: "Why would Li Hansheng send someone or try it out in person?"

Han Xianchu raised his hand gently to stop him: "Xue Chengzhi's move has already alarmed the enemy. If he sends another Wu Kui over, everyone will know that it is us who are planning behind the scenes, which is not advisable."

Wang Zouyin thought about it, and the only one who could convince Grandmaster Wu Kui to go and grab the jade pendant was the only vassal kings who had the territory. He thought about it:

"Why don't you wait for the birthday party to get Xu Buling drunk..."

"Xu Buling is in Chang'an, in order to resist the cold poison, he drinks the strong wine as water and does not get drunk..."

"Is the beauty scheme feasible?"

"Beauty Scheme..."

Han Xianchu hesitated and looked at the King of Wu.

The King of Wu rubbed his forehead, looked at the two strategists who had all had bad ideas, and said coldly:

"Xu Buling, the prince of a vassal prince, hasn't seen any woman before, and has a beauty trick. Do you think he is the idiot Song Yu?"

Wang Zouyin and Han Xianchu smiled awkwardly. They had no choice but to say that there were all kinds of things. Strategymen are not gods, and clever wives cannot cook without rice. They cannot use force and background in the royal palace. How can they seize jade from Prince Su, who is skilled in martial arts?

After discussing for a while, the King of Wu had no idea, so he had to raise his hand;

"Forget it, don't act rashly anymore. Let's talk to him when Xu Bu Ling comes to Hangzhou. I will talk to him in person."

Han Xianchu and Wang Zouyin breathed a sigh of relief and bowed back quickly...

--------

Two days later, Xiaoxue stopped for several consecutive days.

The city of Jinling is still singing and dancing. Without Yang Yingxiong, the local snake, it seems that even the air is a little cleaner. The people on the streets and alleys are talking about the rumors about Prince Su.

In just a few days, I came to Jinling City, killing Yang Yingxiong, destroying Hongshan Lake, and fighting Xue Chengzhi. The three major events that happened in a row have pushed Xu Buling's reputation to the top. Words like "General Xu Lie have successors" are emerging one after another. The elderly began to recall the glorious years when the Xu family army opened up in the troubled times.

However, although killing bullies and destroying water bandits can inspire people, the impact of floods cannot be completely erased by killing a few people.

As snow fell, Jiangnan entered an unprecedented cold winter. More and more refugees were hungry and cold. For the sake of public security, the government has banned refugees from entering the city and only built porridge sheds outside the city to provide assistance.

At dusk, Xu Buling arrived at the city of Jinling on a chasing wind horse. Seeing the refugees shoulder to shoulder in front of the porridge shed outside the city, he could only sigh softly. After all, this place is not Suzhou. The people who suffer from disaster can only rely on the King of Wu and the government. All he can do is kill a few of them to harm the people.

After entering the city, Xu Buling asked Nightingale to report safety to Xiao Qi and could set off for Hangzhou, and he returned to the Lu family mansion on the south bank of Wende Bridge.

Just as I walked to the alley, Xu Buling saw Aunt Lu, who was standing at the entrance of the alley, dazed in a daze. Her water-green skirt outlined her figure quite gracefully, with a shawl on her shoulders, and her long hair was tied up with a red hairpin. She was dignified and gentle, very noble. However, she might have stayed up late last night. At this time, Xueneng's cheeks were a little tired, her eyes were red, and her hands were folded on her waist and clasped together.

Xu Buling tidied up his clothes and confirmed that nothing was wrong. He showed a bright smile and led the horse to the front:

"Aunt Lu?"

Lu Hongluan shook his whole body slightly and turned around suddenly. The fatigue on her face disappeared, turning into anxiety and worry. She ran to her, raised her hand and touched Xu Buling:

"Damn kid, you ran out to fight and kill again. You are the prince of a vassal prince, and you can't show off your hero alone, so you can't bring more people..."

As he said that, he felt aggrieved and was about to cry.

Xu Buling couldn't resist it, but his heart was still warm. He raised his hand and tweaked the hair in Lu Hongluan's ears:

"Aunt Lu, don't worry, I'll go out and stroll around..."

Lu Hongluan didn't hide, raised her hand to grop on Xu Buling, and her eyes were still a little anxious:

"You are still lying to me? I know it. It is said in the market that Prince Su went into Hongshan Lake alone, and was hit by nine swords and twenty-eight arrows to fight a bloody path. When he went out, he met Wu Kui and Xue Chengzhi. He was shot thirteen times in a row and turned defeat into victory'..."

???

Nine swords, twenty-eight arrows, thirteen guns...

Xu Buling's mind was filled with questions and calculated silently: "There are more than fifty holes that have not died, I am really lucky... I can't believe the rumors in the world, I'm really fine..."

After Lu Hongluan found that she had not made a hole, she felt a little more at ease. She put her chest in Xu Buling and smelled it. A faint smell of medicine came, so she wanted to untie Xu Buling's robe:

"Where is the injury? Is it serious? Let me see..."

Xu Buling was a little helpless and held Lu Hongluan's arm and walked into the alley: "How to take off her clothes outside? Let's talk about it when you go back."

Lu Hongluan was worried about Xu Buling's body, and did not ask too much, and quickly took Xu Buling back to the Lu family.

The noise in Hongshan Lake was very loud. The elders of the Lu family came to express their condolences, but they were blocked by Lu Hongluan. They were like treating the dying wounded. Xu Buling lies down in the room, and then called the doctor to look carefully and ask if he had any internal injuries.

The doctor is a famous doctor in Jinling City. He saw that Xu Buling was slightly injured, but he had been treated almost the same and would recover in a few days. Mrs. Lu felt a little relieved when she learned about this.

The incense lingered in the wing room, and the maids were driven out. Xu Buling was forced to lean on the bed, with bedding on his back, and blankets on his legs, comforting with a smile:

"Aunt Lu, I'm fine..."

"I said it's okay, I'm all injured..."

Mrs. Lu sat in front of her side, preventing Xu Buling from getting up, and raised her hand to unbutton her white robe. Seeing the faint bruise on Xu Buling's chest and the bandages bandaged under her ribs, her heart tightened again, and she didn't dare to shake Xu Buling anymore. She touched her carefully for a few times and said softly:

"How long have you forgotten that you were dying when you were in Chang'an City. King Su handed you over to me. If you knew something happened to you..."

Xu Buling had no choice but to see that there was no one around the room, he plucked up the courage to carry Lu Hongluan into her arms and patted her back with his hand: "Okay, stop making trouble, I know the right way..."

"you……"

Mrs. Lu was caught off guard and fell directly to Xu Buling's chest. She stopped nagging. She glanced at her left and right, and then she felt relieved after seeing that there was no outsider. She raised her hand and wanted to hit Xu Buling a few times, but she was afraid that it would hurt Xu Buling's wounds. In the end, she did not struggle. She lay honestly in Xu Buling's arms and complained:

"Ling'er, let me go, you have any injuries..."

Xu Buling finally calmed down his ears, so how could he let go? In order to distract Lu Hongluan, he raised his hand and started to untire the lace of his skirt. He even said anxiously:

"Aunt Lu, I've been suffocating to death these days..."

!!!

Lu Hongluan is a lady from a wealthy family. She has never heard of such dirty words, but it was said from her baby's mouth. She looked down at Xu Buling and untied her clothes neatly. After a while, she realized that her eyebrows were frowned and raised her hand and hit Xu Buling's shoulder:

"Ti Ling'er! Why are you like this? Like... the gangsters on the street..."

After being interrupted, Lu Hongluan forgot what he said after several days of interruption. Her face gradually became hot. She pinched the corners of the peony bellyband to cover it. She looked at the doors and windows with a little guilty voice, and she could hardly hear it.

Seeing this, Xu Buling naturally became bolder and smiled a little:

"You are my aunt, what are you afraid of..."

"I'm gonna-"

Lu Hongluan was embarrassed, and almost got angry when she heard this. She twisted her shoulders and thought to get up: "Okay, okay, I'm your aunt, you scum, don't touch me... I'm dead..."

Xu Buling naturally refused to let go and wanted to continue teasing Auntie. The sound of footsteps and the sound of the nightingale came from outside the room:

"Young Master, the ship is ready long ago. Miss Xiao asked you to leave tomorrow or leave now?"

Mrs. Lu was startled when she heard the sound and closed her shirt quickly.

Xu Buling was still a little impressed and looked at Aunt Lu who was tidying up her dress.

After seeing that Nightingale had not run in, Lu Hongluan breathed a little relieved and did not dare to be with Xu Buling anymore. She whispered: "It will take some time to go to Hangzhou. Let's set off early and just take a few days to recuperate on the boat. I...I'll go and say goodbye to my mother..." After that, he ran out with his head down...
