Travel Notes of Tianlong

Because Tang Hao conveyed the message, the diplomatic talks between Xixia and Dali went extremely smoothly. The group of Xixia main war envoys who originally thought they would use both soft and hard tactics never expected that the Dali royal family was so easy to talk to. This made them prepared. All those threats and inducements are of no use.

However, although Dali showed cooperation, it only agreed to provide food and supplies to Xixia instead of sending troops. This matter was not considered an alliance between the two countries, but at most a friendly agreement, so it did not establish a letter of credence. Emperor Shangyi deliberately acted extremely courteous and courteous at Tang Hao's suggestion, and gave many valuable gifts privately to the envoys as bribes, so this situation might have turned into a quarrel between the two. The exchanges between the two countries turned into a harmonious and friendly appearance under the secret operations of the Dali royal family, Tang Hao and Xixia General Helian.

One month passed in the blink of an eye, and the Xixia delegation had already returned home happily. Brother Xiao also tied the knot with Shuang Fei and became the first consort of Dali. On this day, several brothers who were originally in Dali and their third brother Xuan Xuzi, who had come all the way from afar, were drinking in the backyard of the Prince Consort's Mansion."Brother, I will leave for Tubo tomorrow." Tang Hao raised his glass and toasted to Brother Xiao,"Brother, take care. I am also preparing to take Fei'er to bid farewell to my mother and concubine and return to Daliao to resign." Brother Xiao, in addition to resigning from the Liao Kingdom, also has the purpose of inquiring into the military and political affairs of the Liao Kingdom.

""Two brothers, have a safe journey.""After Xuan Xuzi placed his mother in Lingjiu Palace, he rushed to Dali to attend his eldest brother's wedding. During this period, he heard about the Murong family's activities that brought trouble to the world, so he sent a letter back to Lingjiu Palace to inform his subordinates to keep an eye on Xixia.

"Brothers are all busy, and I can’t fall behind you, little brother." Mr. Duan finally raised his glass,"Hahaha, when you go to the Song Dynasty, don’t think only about Miss Wang!"Tang Hao burst into laughter. The three families that the Murong family wanted to unite with were all being watched by their brothers. However, no one made a trip to the Song Dynasty. After some discussion, they decided that the fourth brother would go and inquire about the Murong family in the Song Dynasty. information

"How many of you!"Suddenly a girl in purple clothes burst into the courtyard. It turned out to be Brother Xiao's sister-in-law Xue Qing,"Everyone is leaving me, I don't care! I want to go with you!"How could she, who is restless, be willing to stay in the Dali Palace and be a princess?

"Hehe, who do you want to go with?"Tang Hao asked. This question actually stopped Xue Qing. It would be most enjoyable to talk to her master Tang Hao. After all, Tang Hao's character was the worst for her. But this child got along well with her sister and brother-in-law. Going to Daliao It's fun to gallop on the imperial horse, not to mention that she is the eldest princess of Liao Dynasty who was personally conferred by Emperor Yelu Zhengde of Liao Dynasty.

On second thought, it would be good to go to Piaomiao Peak with Xuan Xuzi. The scenery there is like a fairyland on earth and the scenery is unparalleled. It is very close to Xixia, and Xue Qing has never been to that place.

In addition, even if she followed the prince brother to the beautiful mountains and rivers in the Jiangnan area of ​​the Song Dynasty, Xue Qing was very excited. When Tang Hao asked him like that, she originally just wanted to run away. She was in trouble when she went out to play.

In the end, Tang Hao gave her some pertinent advice. First of all, he was a bug himself and did not need help from others. Brother Xiao was also accompanied by the alert and clever Shuang Fei, even if he went It is not difficult for the Liao Kingdom to get some information. Xuan Xuzi has the support of the powerful Xiaoyao Sect and a group of small sects attached to Lingjiu Palace, so there will be no mistakes.

Only Mr. Duan, who is kind and generous by nature, makes people a little worried. , Xue Qing following him is undoubtedly the best complement, so in the end it was decided that the two brothers would be mainly responsible for inquiring about information in the Song Dynasty, especially in the Jiangnan area. After the brothers knew their goals, they had a good farewell drink and went their separate ways. The journey started.

Tang Hao came to the portal hall in a quiet courtyard in Dali City. He wanted to go back to Fengyi Villa to explain to Xiaoxi Jingkui and the others before going to Tubo.

"Xiaoxi! Xiaoxi!"In just a moment, Mr. Wu Feng returned to his home,"Oh! ? Lord Wufeng, you are back!"Hearing Tang Hao's shouting in the study, Xiao Xi rushed over quickly,"Well, you didn't encounter any accidents on the way back to the village, right?"Before going to Shaolin, Tang Hao sent Xiao Xi and the others back,"No, Lord Wufeng," Xiao Xi made tea for Tang Hao,"Where are the girls?"Some of the women who were harmed by Tie Jiu and others did not want to face their families anymore, so Tang Hao ordered Xiao Xi to take them back to the manor.

"It's okay, I arranged for them to live in the villa, and they can just do odd jobs."Xiao Xi acted like the manager of the villa, which is exactly what Tang Hao expected.

"However, Sir Wu Feng, a letter arrived two days before you came back, and Brother Kui put it on the desk."Since the last time Tang Hao killed everyone in front of the villa, the number of people coming to the villa to challenge has dropped sharply, so Jing Kui has a lot of leisure, but just two days ago, a messenger from the Jianghu power came respectfully. A letter personally signed by Wu Feng

"oh? Let me take a look." Tang Hao had not gone to the bookcase to read it when he came back. After receiving the letter from Xiao Xi, he quickly browsed it. Apart from the polite and thoughtful greetings, the content of the letter was to invite Wu Feng. The gentleman personally went to the Jianghu power called"Xizhai" to talk about it

"Hehe, this is the first time I heard about this place." Tang Hao called up the system and checked. A place covered by fog on the world map is now clearly displayed. That is the location of the so-called"Xizhai".

"Sir, are there any scammers? You don't have to pay attention to them, right? Jing Kui, who was called by Xiao Xi, also arrived,"Since the other party has sent someone to deliver the letter to their doorstep, wouldn't it be impolite if we didn't respond?"" Tang Hao said with a smile

"Besides, look,He also took out a small black iron sign from the end of the letter,"I've even prepared a token for entering the stronghold." Tang Hao didn't care at first. There were people in the world who wanted to have a relationship with him. More, but now the Xizhai is quite close to the Tubo Kingdom, so why not drop by and have a look?

"Then we will go with you," Xiao Xi said

"Yes, Ximei is right, this place is mysterious and full of evil," Jing Kui nodded in agreement.

"No need, just take good care of the house." Tang Hao was still not at ease with the villa without him. If those two powerful assistants were left, at least there would be few people in this world who would act wild on their own, so he simply Rejected their proposals

"I have something important for you to do when I come back this time," but it's not like Tang Hao doesn't need their help.

"Please give me your orders!"The two of them knelt down together.

"After I left, you first sent people to ambush around Mantuo Villa and secretly assist my fourth brother."After all, Tang Hao was still worried."If he is in danger, we must keep him safe at all costs."

"Yes, I will definitely choose shrewd subordinates to live up to your trust," Jing Kui was responsible for all secondary action NPCs in the villa, and he readily agreed.

"Second, Xiao Xi, please contact Mr. Su from Bianliang in the near future and ask if there is anything unusual in the court. Once you get a reply, you will send a letter to me as soon as possible."Tang Hao is an old acquaintance with Master Su. He is also one of the few non-martial arts people who knows Mr. Wu Feng's true identity.

"My lord, yesAre you worried about changes in Bianliang because of the Shaolin incident?"Xiao Xi's strength and intelligence are both outstanding, so she quickly thought of these

"Yes, I think the Murong family must have insiders or allies in the government and the opposition," Tang Hao nodded,"But these things have not been confirmed yet, let's confirm it first."

After Tang Hao finished explaining these things, he spent the night at the villa and used the portal again to return to Dali the next day. Since he had not been to the Tubo capital yet, he could not go there directly.

"Phew! The scenery in Dali is still so pleasant." Tang Hao stretched greatly,"Let me see how to get to that Xizhai."He opened the system map and looked for the best route to his destination.

Xizhai, a mysterious mountain village located at the junction of Dali and Tubo. It was built by a group of martial arts people who rarely appeared in the world. It was built by mountains and rivers. After many years of operation, this place not only has the main village where the management class is located, but also has gathered many ordinary people due to the years of development. The entire village has become bigger and bigger, and it has become a paradise that is not under the jurisdiction of any force.

"Let me see where the Wangyou Building is." Tang Hao has arrived inside Xizhai. Although the streets here are not spacious, there are various shops and stalls on both sides. The people who make a living here are people of all ethnic groups from all over the world. It was as if all ethnic groups were integrated into it.

The Wangyou Tower that Tang Hao was looking for was the main village of"Xizhai", and the person who invited him should be waiting for Mr. Wu Feng's arrival there.

"Please stop!"Arrived in front of Wangyou Tower, several guards blocked Tang Hao's way. It seems that this place is not usually accessible to people casually.

"Please look," Tang Hao took out the sign sent with the letter and handed it to the guard,"It turns out that Mr. Wu Feng is here. Please forgive me!"The guard took the sign and immediately greeted him with a smile. It didn't look like he had been in a closed environment for a long time. On the contrary, the etiquette was quite thoughtful.

Soon after, Tang Hao was invited to a quaint yet wild room," Sir, please wait a moment. My master will be here soon."The receptionist bowed out respectfully.

Tang Hao sat in the room and looked around. It didn't look like anything special. The display was more in the style of the Song Dynasty, but instead of calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, became animal skin hunting equipment

"Hahahahaha, I don’t know why I’m so disappointed in you, sir, for your great visit, so don’t blame me!"A cheerful voice came from outside the door. Tang Hao looked up and saw a man wearing coarse linen clothes and a turban on his head walking in,"I'm so annoying, how dare you blame me."Tang Hao has never been in contact with anyone in Xizhai, and he doesn't know how to address them, so he can only stand up and greet them first.

"Sir, you are indeed an extraordinary person. I am the fourth eldest son in Wangyou Tower. My surname is Feng, my name is Tao, my nickname is Huasou. If you insist on calling me, I am Lao Feng."The other party introduced himself

"It turns out to be Fourth Master Feng. Nice to meet you!"Of course Tang Hao will not lose his etiquette. Looking at the man's dress, he does look like a gardener.

"Hahaha, sir, you're welcome. Unfortunately, my brothers are out on inspection, and I've sent someone to invite them. I can introduce them one by one in a moment." Hua Sou Feng Tao turned around and ordered people to bring wine and food, preparing to eat and drink with Tang Hao first.

During the dinner, Tang Hao listened to Feng Tao's introduction and got a general understanding of the composition of the Wangyou Tower in Xizhai. Unfortunately, the four of them had similar interests, so they lived in seclusion and established Xizhai in this place where the rights of various countries were blank. Brothers The four of them each have their own hobbies. Tang Hao already knows that Liang Tao loves gardening. The other three are the eldest drunk fairy Qi Lingbai, the second eldest Moyin Bi Chaosheng, and the third eldest scholar Cheng Jindan.

Just as he was talking, there was a commotion outside the door. It seems that the other three posters have arrived,"Mr. Wu Feng is here to visit us. My brothers and I didn't entertain you well, so I still hope Haihan!""The speaker's voice was like Hong Zhong's, smelling of alcohol. Naturally, it was Qi Lingbai, the boss of Wangyou Tower.

"Boss Qi, you're welcome." Tang Hao cupped his hands,"Hahaha, it wouldn't be a pity if Yale wasn't there to take care of this situation!"Needless to say, the one carrying the guqin with him is undoubtedly the second oldest, Bi Chaosheng.

"Second brother, please play. My younger brother is very popular in poetry. I would like to write an inscription to accompany your music!"The third child, Cheng Jindan, is known as the master of calligraphy and writing, and he likes to copy the calligraphy and paintings of sages.

"Two brothers, sir, I will slowly play the music and write the inscription here. Let’s pay a toast to Mr. Wu Feng first!"It was the fourth brother Feng Tao who interrupted the leisurely elegance of the two people.

"Yes, yes, I am rude, sir, don't blame me," the two men then stopped and raised their glasses to toast Tang Hao with the eldest brother and the fourth brother.

Although they couldn't figure out the other party's direction, at the momentAlthough they were still very polite, Tang Hao certainly would not fail to show respect to the other party, so he raised his glass and drank it down in one gulp.

After three rounds of drinking, the boss Qi Lingbai started to order the people outside,"Come on, bring me my jar of Guanwai Baijiu and ask sir to evaluate it!" Known as the Drunken Immortal, this Qi Louzhu naturally has a good collection of fine wines from all over the world. Using the extremely spicy Guanwai Baijiu shows how addicted he is to alcohol.

"Sir, I bought this jar of wine from the owner of a wine shop outside the customs." Zui Xian breathed out the smell of wine."It is said that the owner has been collecting it for thirty years and has never opened it. I spent a full ten years to get the owner to part with me. The two gold coins have been saved for another twenty years. Today, Mr. comes, and we will not return until we are drunk!"The fine wine that has been collected for fifty years is in front of me. I have to say that Tang Hao wants to taste what it tastes like.

Seeing Qi Lingbai peeling off the red paper and linen sealing layer by layer to reveal the thick sealing mud, Tang Hao Hao realized that the drunken immortal seemed to want to take it apart with his bare hands.

But seeing that he didn't make any big movements, he simply spread his fingers and grabbed it on the sealing mud, and then used his strength to tear away the dusty fifty-year-old man. The sealing mud of the year was caught at once

"oh! Good job, brother!"The scholar cheered loudly.

Tang Hao glanced at it and said,"The Eight Drunken Immortals' Sanshou," he relied on the system's prompts to understand the skills of the Drunken Immortal.

"Sir, please!"As soon as the wine seal was opened, a wild and mellow fragrance instantly filled the whole room. Zuixian first filled a bowl of wine for Tang Hao

"I'm so disrespectful!"Tang Hao raised the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp,"Good drinker!"Everyone cheered in unison.

On the first day after arriving at Wangyou Building in Xizhai, except for the warm hospitality of the four building owners, they did not mention any reason for inviting him to Tang Hao.

That night, Tang Hao was planning. No matter what the other party's purpose was, he only stayed in Xizhai for three days. If the four people still ignored him, he would go straight to Tubo and no longer care about the things in this village.
