Zeng Cheng set out from the Ministry of Rites early the next morning, put the edict in a sealed red lacquer box, put it on his back, carried more than a dozen soldiers, urged his horses, set off from the capital, and ran straight to Jiangnan.

In Duanqingzhai, Cao Ruifeng had just received the news that the imperial edict that the court had appointed her as the governor of the river had already set off. Originally, the river had a liaison office in the capital. Cheng Xiuyun, the chief of the river intelligence, was always responsible for this work. Therefore, when Zeng Cheng left Beijing, the river had already informed the news and learned the news. There was nothing to hide. Cao Ruifeng had to know in advance and prepare to welcome the edict.

Changfeng didn't know what the court rules were, and he couldn't participate in the discussion. This incompetent military advisor went to the waterfall pool with Qi Lei almost every day to drink and practice martial arts. Qi Lei had Changfeng, a master, carefully guided it. The progress of martial arts can be described as a thousand miles a day. Within three years of hard work, Qi Lei's sword technique will definitely be a small success, and he will also be among the top experts at that time. Changfeng is focused and his martial arts has also improved, but he has not yet been able to break through the bottleneck and go to the next level. Since Cao Ruifeng forced the soft sword to take, he has no weapons to replace it with branches. Practicing sword skills makes the sword technique more elegant and elusive. In Qi Lei's words, Changfeng should be an excellent dance master, not a martial arts master who can kill people with beautiful martial arts.

Because Cao Ruifeng was busy with the things in the village, she restored her image as the cold-faced beauty in the village before. She was even more efficient in handling affairs in the village than when the old village leader was alive. She was decisive and clear that after the old village leader died, many affairs were accumulated and needed to be handled, so she was particularly busy, so it was difficult to take care of the two Changfeng brothers. They also knew that they had the friendship of sworn brothers. They would go wherever they were willing to go, and no longer asked about Changfeng's whereabouts. However, there was one thing that Changfeng had to go back to the backyard every day to have dinner with her. She was so busy every day that she wanted to lean on Changfeng's shoulders and take off her serious face for the whole day, and get a hint of peace and warmth in Changfeng's arms. Changfeng naturally would not refuse such requests. The relationship between the two continued to warm up, and the stage of water melting should come soon, and life would be happy and worry-free.

Lian Teng's actions have become smaller and smaller these days, almost always in a calm state. There are not so many conflicts between the two sides. Even if Cao Ruifeng snatched the entire Moon Wharf, he did not respond at all. This is too abnormal. Everyone knows that there will inevitably be * after the calm state. This is the law of nature and the truth of competition in this world. Both sides know that there will be a war about to break out.

The edict to enfeoff Cao Ruifeng was the fuse for the outbreak of this war!

Even Teng understood this principle, Cao Ruifeng also understood it. Ouyang Zhen saw it more clearly, and everyone was making articles around the edict.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, on the night before Zeng Cheng set out, Li Yuanchao called Lee Hsien Long into the secret room and handed Lee Hsien Long a long bag, and gave Lee Hsien Long a few instructions. Then Lee Hsien Long secretly left the Prime Minister's Mansion and sneaked out of the capital, missing.

But behind Lee Hsien-long, eighteen masked men in black also left the city, and their troops were divided into two groups and disappeared into the night sky.

In contrast, Kou's mansion was much quieter. Kou Tianyun did not take these tens of thousands of people seriously. What could a mob do? He just jealous of the benefits they received, so he quarreled with Li Yuanchao in the court. He was extremely ambitious and could not satisfy this little interest in front of him.

Tengkongzhai, Ouyang Zhen immediately left Hailing Lin's house after receiving the news. When he arrived at Tengkongzhai, Zeng Cheng had already set out for two days and had arrived at Yanhe. He had rested in the small town by the river for one night. He could cross the river tomorrow and reach Xiangping Town, a small town north of Tian'an County in three days.

The matter is urgent. If you don’t attack the carriage and people escorting the edict in Hebei, it will become quite difficult to attack on the south bank. Lian Teng’s forces are basically in the north, and it is indeed not the wisest choice to attack in Jiangnan, so Ouyang Zhen rushed to Tengkongzhai to discuss with Lian Teng.

Lian Teng quietly welcomed Ouyang Zhen into the village. In order to cover up, he took Ouyang Zhen to the small courtyard where Lian Jiao was recuperating. There were no idle people waiting there, so he notified a confidant subordinate and called Wan Yanniang to come with him. It seemed that since Wan Yanniang got pregnant with Lian Teng's flesh and blood, Lian Teng had already expressed his heart to her and trusted her very much.

Lian Teng first asked: "Does Ouyang Manor Master already know what happened in the capital?"

Ouyang Zhen took a sip of the tea ceremony served by the maid: "The owner of the manor has already known that he has received the letter from the prime minister's flying pigeon, and my two apprentices will come to meet me tomorrow, so that they can know the whole plot of the matter at that time."

"That Cao Ruifeng actually colluded with the city lord of Wangyue City, disturbing our plan to control Wangyue Pier." Lian Teng said angrily.

"I also know in Hailing City that you have spent a lot of effort to seize Cao Ruifeng's territory. I almost forced Cao Ruifeng to a dead end. It was bad that no one expected that she would collude with the government." Ouyang Zhen felt that this was a huge mistake on his side. He forgot that they were not colluding with the traitor? Besides, Cao Ruifeng became the governor of the river in one day, and he was also considered an official of the court. How could it be considered a collusion?

"But it still failed. There was also that little girl who actually caused Jiao'er to do this. She still couldn't get out of bed and walk around. Fortunately, God kept my Lian family, so that Yan Niang had my flesh and blood!" Lian Teng hated Cao Ruifeng to the core now.

"Don't be angry at the leader of the village. As long as we bear the momentary anger, then Cao Ruifeng will let you deal with it if you are not alone!" Ouyang Zhen chuckled and smiled sinisterly.

Lian Teng nodded, clenched his fists and said hatred: "Cao Ruifeng, don't fall into my Lian Teng's hands, otherwise I want you to die if you live, and you will suffer forever. Let you be the female slave of our Lian family forever."

A gust of fragrant wind suddenly came, and the two sitting people looked up at the door at the same time. It was the charming Wanyan Mother who was extremely charming. The tiny bells all over her body rang out in a row, and the dazzling headdresses were indeed charming. The evil ghosts in the two colors immediately looked straight. Such a woman is really a rare beauty, and Lian Teng is really lucky. Ouyang Zhen couldn't help but envy this little person who obeyed him.

Ouyang Zhen stood up and said, "This must be Mrs. Lian. It is indeed a hero among women. Lian's village leader's blessing really makes Ouyang Zhen envious."

The Wan Yanniang said with a blessing: "You are polite to the owner of Ouyang. Yanniang's appearance of Pu Liu and Sesame are nothing. The many beautiful wives and concubines in the owner's family are not better than Yanniang."

"Madam Lian is really good at speaking. It seems that the leader of Lian's village must be very caring about Mrs Lian." Ouyang Zhen smiled at Lian Teng, and Lian Teng smiled at Ouyang Zhen.

"The eloquence of Ouyang Manor is also worse than seeing at first sight. Yan Niang has been taught." Wan Yan Niang threw a charming look at Ouyang Zhen, and Ouyang Zhen's bones suddenly became slouched.

"Yanniang, don't talk about it. We have some serious things to talk about when we come to you." Lian Teng could see that Ouyang Zhen became interested in Wan Yanniang, because Wan Yanniang used charming skills to Ouyang Zhen as soon as she came up, so she interrupted their conversation.

Ouyang Zhen also understood that he had lost some inch in his words, so he hurriedly came to his mind and said, "Madam Lian, Ouyang Zhen is planning how to destroy Cao Ruifeng ascends the river governor. Madam Lian, do you have any good suggestions?"

"These things are all our Lian Village Master. Yan Niang will only help from the side. There is no good advice. Ouyang's owner is too embarrassed by Yan Niang." Wan Yan Niang gave Lian Teng a charming look, almost unable to help but pick up the slut in front of him and go in for fun.

Ouyang Zhen couldn't stand Wan Yanniang's charming eyes, knowing that this woman must have practiced charming skills to be so attractive. No wonder she kept walking around her after she came in, so she suppressed her look and said seriously: "Mrs. Madam is the virtuous assistant of the village leader. Some things are not from the mind of the wife. Madam is too modest."

"With our current strength, we are only suitable for interception in the north. If they lose the imperial edict, they will not be able to take the position of the head of the village so quickly, so that we can gain time and disintegrate Cao Ruifeng's camp." Wan Yanniang took back her charming posture just now and said seriously.

"Mrs. Lian really has a thorough understanding of the problem. Even if the court knows it, it will have to investigate it first. If the original imperial edict is really not found, then a new decree will be issued. We are using this time to realize our plan." Ouyang Zhen praised it with great praise.

"The owner's analysis made very reasonable, but where should we choose to start?" Lian Teng asked a key question.

Ouyang Zhen looked at Wan Yanniang and smiled: "I think Mrs. Zun should have a slight slut in her heart, right, Mrs. Lian?"

Wan Yanniang chuckled and said, "The Ouyang Manor Master is indeed awesome. You can see through other people's thoughts at a glance. Yanniang has a place to take action there, but it requires the cooperation of the Ouyang Manor Master to succeed."

Lian Teng ordered someone to get the topographic map. Wan Yanniang pointed to a small town on the map and said, "It's this!" After he raised his head and said, "How do you think the location that Yanniang chose?"

"Didn't your pleasure boat stop at Shuangqin Wharf not far from it in those days? Didn't this make others suspect us?" Lian Teng asked a little inappropriately.

"Who is running Shuangqin Wharf?" Wan Yanniang turned her head and asked.

"It's from Shuangqin Castle, you still need to ask!" Lian Teng answered first.

"You said that I went to Shuangqin Fort to visit the two castle lords that night. Will anyone doubt my head?" Wan Yanniang giggled.

"Good idea, this not only distracts Qin Qiong and Qin Feng from attention, but also makes us act in secret." Lian Teng slapped the table and said loudly.

"But isn't this more suspicious, thinking that you did this on purpose. You are selfless and you will still doubt the leader of Lian's village." Ouyang Zhen's words made Lian Teng feel cold and enthusiastic.

"No, because there will be someone else to be there that day." Wan Yanniang said with a mysterious smile.

"Who?" Ouyang Zhen and Lian Teng asked at the same time.

Wan Yanniang looked at the two men who had lost their minds slightly by her charming skills and smiled happily: "That is my opponent Cheng Xiuyun. Do we still need to worry about it if we have her?"

Ouyang Zhen's concentration was much deeper than Lian Teng, and he quickly returned to his calmness and said, "Mrs. Lian is right. Cao Ruifeng, the girl, will definitely send someone to welcome the edict and the envoy. This person is nothing more than one of Cao Gongqing and Cheng Xiuyun. Cheng Xiuyun is undoubtedly the best candidate. In terms of wisdom and means, she is far above Cao Gongqing. If she goes to Shuangqin Fort, Mrs. Lian will arrive at Shuangqin Wharf and encounters such a big event, she will naturally have to go there. Therefore, if Mrs. Lian goes, it will not only not make people wonder if Mrs. Lian has other purposes, but instead thinks that it is wrong if Mrs. Lian passes through the door and does not enter."

"Yes, Ouyang Manor Master is indeed a master of strategy. In the eyes of the owner of the manor, Yan Niang's little cleverness is just a trick of devils." Wan Yanniang said to Ouyang Zhen with a smile. The trembling branches made Ouyang Zhen feel a little rippling and unable to control himself. This is just a skill of external charm. If the master of internal charming kung fu is here, Ouyang Zhen would have lost his ability to control himself long ago. This is a fatal weakness that lustful people cannot resist.

Ouyang Zhen refused to look at the charming Wan Yanniang and said, "I don't know how Mrs. Lian obtained the edict?"

"This means that Yan Niang has to rely on the power of Ouyang Manor Master. There is no problem with the people in the mountain village to deal with ordinary people, but they are a little helpless when dealing with well-trained officers and soldiers. Only Ouyang Manor Master has the ability to get the edict out." Wan Yanniang's eyes suddenly looked at Ouyang Zhen and said.

Ouyang Zhen dared not look at Wan Yanniang's gaze. The more this was, the more attractive it was. Ouyang Zhen tried hard to suppress the erotic in his heart. He looked away and said: "What Mrs. Lian said makes sense, but Ouyang Zhen only has only three people, and with a master like Cheng Xiuyun, I'm afraid there will be no big chance of success."

"The owner of the manor's martial arts ranks sixth among the top ten masters in the world. The intelligence network of Sunrise Villa covers the entire dynasty. How could the martial arts people not know about this? The guards who accompanied him were just sent by the Ministry of Rites to accompany the special envoys. They are not the opponent of your two disciples at all. Is there anything else that scary? And the owner of the manor, you forgot where Yan Niang is, and where Cheng Xiuyun is. We took action before, how could she predict it in advance? There is a master that cannot play a role. The owner of the manor said, right?" Wan Yan Niang smiled.

"Mrs. Lian is so amazing. My two incompetent disciples are not as powerful as the wife said. And every sentence tells everything that Ouyang Zhen is most proud of. Ouyang Zhen seems to have no reason to refuse the wife's proposal?" Ouyang Zhen modestly for his disciple and agreed with Wan Yanniang's plan.

"Madam is confident of restraining Cheng Xiuyun?" Ouyang Zhen then thought that he could not let himself get out of his body in the end, so he was troublesome, and then asked.

"Don't worry, the owner of the manor, Yan Niang will take care of the owner of the manor and the two masters in everything else. At that time, the owner of the village will ask the master of Tong to assist the two masters. The owner only needs to put in a little effort to command in secret." Wan Yan Niang continued.

Lian Teng nodded and said, "Taoist Tong is steady and smart. Lian Teng trusts him very much and will not make any mistakes."

It is best not to come forward by yourself. It is best for your people to come forward, and the two disciples should not have any big problems. In addition, I have seen the mind and martial arts of Tong Taoist in the competition, and I deeply appreciate it, so I feel relieved: "It is indeed the best candidate to take charge of the situation, so I should be foolproof."

The three of them carefully discussed the details of the action, the time of the action and the contact plan. Lian Teng and Wan Yanniang tried their best to keep Ouyang Zhen. Of course, Ouyang Zhen did not dare to stop. Wan Yanniang's charming skills were too powerful. He was afraid that if he couldn't control himself and had that relationship with Wan Yanniang, he would ruin the big affairs between him and the prime minister.

I don’t know if Wan Yanniang’s charming skills are great, or if her concentration is not deep enough, or if the plan itself is perfect, Ouyang Zhen promised to act according to Wan Yanniang’s plan and seize the edict.

Ouyang Zhen went to see Lian Jiao, who was seriously injured, and then left Tengkongzhai. Yu Yang Zhifang and Zhang Shuhua went to arrange everything in the round.

Lian Jiao was lying on the bed like a dead fish, only breathing out, his face was pale, and it seemed that he had lost too much blood. I'm afraid he would not be able to get out of bed for a long time.

Then they knew that they had missed a person, a person who had fatal damage to them, and at the same time they had miscalculated the real strength of the escort envoy and the guards who had given the edict.

The leisurely person was drinking wine leisurely under the waterfall and chatting with Qi Lei, revealing his strong muscles, which was like a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties. There was no one else here, so there was no need to hide himself deliberately. Happy days were about to pass, and the wind had a premonition.

Sure enough, at night, Cao Ruifeng sat at the dining table, waiting for him with a serious look on her face. Changfeng thought she had encountered something unpleasant and explained: "What's wrong? Everything has passed. Don't keep it in your heart if you have anything to say."

"We may have to be separated for a few days." Cao Ruifeng suddenly said very seriously.

Changfeng thought Cao Ruifeng was going to drive him away, so he was so anxious that he put down the bowl he brought to his hand and said, "It's not been a month yet, are you going to drive me away?"

"No, I want you and Aunt Xiu to welcome the special envoy and the edict." Cao Ruifeng actually didn't want Changfeng to leave him, but the edict was very important to the fate of the entire river. If something happened, the consequences would be unimaginable. Now that Changfeng is by his side, he has the highest martial arts skills, and only he can be sure to protect the edict, so he has to endure the torture of spending a few days apart.

Love is so wonderful. Changfeng has experienced the most ridiculous love in the world and the most unforgettable love. From two people he didn't know, to forced together, love, and then to mutual attachment, and deep love for each other, in just a dozen days, the change is simply unbelievable. The short departure has made Cao Ruifeng so unhappy. I don't know what kind of situation she will be after leaving her for half a year. Changfeng is a little worried.

"When?" Changfeng calmed down and said, he didn't want to talk much, so as not to increase her unhappiness.

"I'll leave tomorrow." Cao Ruifeng squeezed out two words from her teeth.

"I understand, I'll go and have a meal." Changfeng picked up the bowls and chopsticks again, picked up a piece of fish and put it into Cao Ruifeng's bowl.

"Do you have nothing to say to me?" Cao Ruifeng asked in a low voice.

"What do you mean? Wouldn't you come back in a few days? You just went out to do something, not in the first half of the year." Changfeng chewed the rice and said incomprehensible.

"Can you not go to the waterfall to practice tonight? Can you accompany me?" Cao Ruifeng softened and said.

"But I have made an appointment with Brother Qi, so I can't break the appointment." Although Changfeng knew that he had been practicing and drinking with Qi Lei these days and rarely spent time alone with Cao Ruifeng, he agreed to Qi Lei that keeping trust is the most basic principle of a warrior, and he said helplessly.

"Then I can't make an example for me. You will go out tomorrow. We will not be able to see each other for a few days. I'll just ask someone to notify Brother Qi." Cao Ruifeng said in an almost pleading tone.

Changfeng became less and less resistant to Cao Ruifeng's request, so he had to give up his principles and said, "Okay, okay, you ask Xiaomei to talk to Brother Qi."

Cao Ruifeng immediately smiled happily, and ate the fish that Changfeng had squeezed into her bowl and said, "My husband really loves Ruifeng the most!"

"Don't just say it's so sweet. You don't take me seriously in front of others, let alone let us know sooner or later. Think about what your subordinates think, why do their village leaders always close the door and have dinner with the old military advisors who had never seen before? Even if he made great contributions to the copycat, he wouldn't be so polite? Isn't this even more suspicious?" Changfeng smiled unhappily, obviously very happy to call him "husband".

"Why did I hear something different from what you think? I heard the village Ding say that my father had just passed away and the old military advisor just filled my father's position. He wanted to tell the military advisor some things, but he couldn't let others know, so he just closed the door and had dinner. After a long time, when my sadness faded, I wouldn't eat with you, the old military advisor again." Cao Ruifeng pointed at Changfeng's nose and retorted for her own reasons.

"Eat!" Changfeng was not in the mood to talk to her for a long time. Only at the dinner table did Changfeng order Cao Ruifeng. This was one of the three rules.

After dinner, Cao Ruifeng tried his best to pull Changfeng to the waterfall. Changfeng didn't know its intention, so he had to follow her.

It turned out that Cao Ruifeng wanted to take a shower, but she pulled Changfeng to come. I don’t know if she was here to let the wind go, or was going to let Changfeng feast her eyes.

A dazzling snow-white body made different beautiful movements in the pool water below the waterfall. If Changfeng saw it, it was his fiancée's wife, and it was nothing to see it. Turn around, don't you look at it? I feel a pity that many people dream of being with such a beautiful girl under such a beautiful moonlight.

Cao Ruifeng's underwater skills are derived from the true teachings of her father Cao Gongfang. She is so superb. In the water, Changfeng can only be regarded as a frog that can help water, and Cao Ruifeng is a beautiful mermaid in the sea.

When Cao Ruifeng had enough and was tired of roaming, the two of them sat by the pond and snuggled tightly. No one could speak at this moment, because once they spoke, they would destroy this tranquility and peace.

Undoubtedly, Cao Ruifeng was not only his gentle wife in Changfeng's eyes, but also the most beautiful fairy in the sky.

The wind was filled with love, and he hugged Cao Ruifeng tightly in his arms. No one could take this extremely precious treasure from his arms.

Cao Ruifeng gradually fell asleep in Changfeng's arms and made a slight snoring sound. He knew that she was very tired, and now he could only share some of the sorrows of fighting and killing for her. He could only apologize in his heart, and he would definitely compensate her well in the future.

How beautiful the picture of all this is. Changfeng would rather time stop moving forward, so that he would just hug Cao Ruifeng into a fossil, standing quietly by the pool.
To be continued...
