Chapter 120 I will go and save her myself
"Master." Qingshan knelt down and said with a sob, "Master, you don't have to live such a hard life. You have to live for yourself."
Chu Xiwang looked at him straight: "Qingshan, you want to control me too?"
"No, I just feel bad seeing my master like this."
Chu Xiwang fell silent again. Qingshan saw that the corners of his lips were cracked and pale, so he quickly got up, poured a glass of warm water and handed it to him.
"Master, the world is in turmoil. No one knows who will be the winner tomorrow, but the sun still rises from the east." Qingshan said sadly, "There is no need to accommodate some people and things all the time. Master, let's clean up the mess once."
Over the years, many people's hearts have grown, but some people have never recognized themselves clearly.
The master was born with a heavy responsibility. His mother was taken away from him at birth, and he was arranged by those people to compete with his 10 half-brothers. At the age of 5, he could not cry, laugh, complain or feel pain. At the age of 10, he had defeated all his brothers.
Sihai Pavilion was handed over to the master, but the people did not entirely belong to the master.
Everyone says that they have suffered a lot in their "beautiful country", but Qingshan knows that the suffering that can be expressed is not enough.
"A big event is imminent, and people's hearts are divided. This is a big taboo! Master, there is no need to hide your incompetence any longer!"
Chu Xiwang lowered his eyes and put away his edge, but he did not mention the matter of cleaning up the sect again. Instead, he said: "Someone gave the Cross Gate an order to kill Miss Xie. The Cross Gate did not accept the order, so the other party went to the Northern Palace to recruit mercenaries."
Recruiting mercenaries, also known as recruiting soldiers, does not distinguish between nationalities or races, and does not care about ethnic stance or national justice. All they care about is naked profit, and they value money more than lives.
Qingshan did not interrupt and waited quietly for his next words.
"I will go and rescue her myself."
"Master, you can ask Lao Cai to arrange people. It's too difficult to recruit mercenaries. Master, don't confront them."
Chu Xiwang kept looking at the green mountains. After a while, the temperature in the room became even lower.
Qingshan couldn't stand it anymore and begged, "Master, Qingshan has been with you for 12 years. My martial arts skills are not as good as yours, but it is not a problem to deal with scattered soldiers like the mercenaries. Please let me go?"
"No, I'll go."
Chu Xiwang left no doubt.
She is a light in the dark night, and he wants to protect this light.

This time they came to Chang'an, and no one knew when the next time would be. Xie An accompanied Xie Yanyan to stroll through the streets and alleys of Chang'an City. It was a rare opportunity for the father and daughter to have such leisure time.
When they arrived at the horse market at the end of Chang'an Street, Xie Anfeng heard the horses snorting. He felt itchy and said, "Yan'er, how about going to the horse market?"
The reason why a military general likes horses is the same as the reason why a man in the previous life saw that a car couldn't move.
She wants to see it too.
The horse market at the end of Chang'an Street is very large, and horse dealers from Western Rong, Northern Di and other countries all trade here.
Seeing them coming, a horse dealer immediately came up to Xie Anfeng and asked, "Sir, would you like to buy a horse? What kind do you want?"
Xie Anfeng said: "I want to take a look first. I don't want an old horse. It's better to be about one year old and without any serious illness."
"May I ask what you want to do with it?"
“Cycling.”
"We happen to have ten red-eyed half-red horses here, but the price is quite high."
"Dayuan horses?" Xie Anfeng's breathing became rapid.
The red-eyed half-red horse, also known as the Dayuan horse, has another common name: the Ferghana horse.
Dayuan horses only became popular during the Han Dynasty, and are now a legendary existence.
No matter how legendary it is, it is just a riding tool. There are many of these horses among the Western Rong and northern nomadic tribes.
Xie Anfeng was an expert in horse identification. When he looked at the ten horses, he found that they were not red-eyed half-red horses of authentic pedigree, but their endurance and toughness far exceeded that of ordinary war horses in the Central Plains.
"How much is the price?"
"You really want them? Then I'll give you 300,000 coins each. If you want all ten, I'll charge you 250,000 coins per horse."
At this time, there was not much silver, but more big money.
One horse costs 250,000 coins, and 10 horses cost 2.5 million coins.
If one tael of silver is equal to 250 coins, the equivalent of silver is 10,000 taels.
"Only 10?" Xie Yanyan asked calmly.
The horse dealer then looked at Xie Yanyan seriously. Although the little girl was very young, she spoke in a very arrogant tone.
There are only 10 red-eyed half-red horses?
He is already a very powerful horse dealer, and others can hardly get such a good horse.
"If you want it, I can still get it, but you just have to wait a few more days."
"We can't wait. We'll leave early the day after tomorrow."
The man gritted his teeth and said, "You really want a lot? Cash?"
"Cash! 250,000 coins per horse, which is only 1,000 taels of silver," Xie Yanyan said, "How much can you get in two days? Remember, it must be of authentic bloodline."
Xie Anfeng shouted, "Yan'er, what do we need so many good horses for?"
"Play, just watch them kicking around and having fun."
The horse dealer looked at Xie Yanyan in amazement.
[This person is either a princess or a lunatic]
[The princess doesn't dare to spend money so lavishly]
[Must be a madman]
Xie Yanyan: "I'm not crazy."
"I didn't say you were crazy," the horse dealer said immediately, as if he had been seen through, "How about you take these 10 horses away first?"
"Someone will come to find you later. Go find another good horse as soon as possible. It doesn't have to be a red-eyed half-red horse. As long as it's a good horse, the price can be negotiated."
The horse dealer asked her if she wanted to pay a deposit.
Xie Yanyan said: "Someone will pay the deposit later, but I don't have the money."
What's the point of talking if you have no money? You're crazy!
Xie Anfeng came out with Xie Yanyan. He actually didn't expect to bring back a good horse, but, what military general doesn't like a good horse?
"If father likes it, I will get you one, but not for now. We are still exiles."
The father and son slowly went back and bought a lot of things on the street, including lacquerware, bronzeware, and other high-quality items. The prices were a little higher than the current prices, but the quality was good and they represented the highest level at the time.
Xie Anfeng was very happy while eating and playing. The child looked cold, but she was very much in his heart. She was not like other boudoir girls, but was more generous than men.
As they walked, they were about 3,000 meters away from the horse farm. Xie Yanyan found two sacks from the space and filled them with silver ingots.
Ten red-eyed, half-red horses entered her three-dimensional space.
Just in case, she placed the bag of silver directly in front of the horse dealer.
The horse dealer was tripped by some silver bags for no reason. He was about to curse at someone for putting things in the wrong place when he suddenly saw that two large sacks were not tied.
Silver ingots?
I slapped myself hard, I was not dreaming!
I grabbed a silver ingot and took a bite. Really, it was silver! !
He hurriedly called out to his brother: "Who, who put it here?"
The four brothers all said they didn't notice.
"Brother, the horse is gone!" a horse dealer suddenly shouted.
The horse dealer looked at the empty horse farm and then at the silver ingot in front of him. He had an idea and quickly asked his brother to weigh the silver. The full scale showed exactly ten thousand taels.
"Brother, am I dreaming? Is it really silver? Usually I collect a lot of copper coins, who would take out silver?"
"Stop talking, take the silver away quickly. Isn't it better than copper coins? We need several carts to carry the copper coins."
(Xie Yanyan: Actually, I have copper coins if you want them.)
On the way back to the inn, she was attracted by an exquisite and tall shop.
There are six big characters written on the antique sign: Huangfu’s Rice Shop.
