On the battlefield of the Han family's back hill, Han Shizi cut his opponent back several steps with a red tassel gun.

After the opponent stabilized his figure, he gave a salute to Han Shizi: "Shizi, I lost!"

Han Shizi was sweating and panting slightly. He threw his red tassel gun to the bodyguard and said, "step down, remember to heal."

"Yes

The Han family's dead man who fought with Han Shizi left the martial field with the help of two bodyguards.

A long attendant came forward with a clean towel.

Han Shizi took the towel and wiped the sweat on his face. He turned to the middle-aged man who had been watching the war and said, "second uncle, how about it?"

The man Han Shizi called second uncle is Han Yong, the second master of the Han family.

Han Yong came over with his hands behind him: "it's better than last month."

Han Shizi soon breathed smoothly. He was obviously not very satisfied with the result. He continued to ask, "how was Bi xuanyuansheng then?"

Xuanyuan Sheng, the eldest son of Xuanyuan's family, is a famous martial arts genius in six countries. He is well-known for Xuanyuan Lizhen's biography and is known as the only one who can catch up with Xuanyuan's God of war.

Han Yong had been under xuanyuansheng.

Han Yong pondered for a moment and said, "you are still young. If you practice martial arts more frequently, you may not be able to reach the height of xuanyuansheng."

"So I still can't surpass him." Han Shizi's bodyguard with the red tassel gun held out his hand.

The bodyguard gave him the gun with both hands.

Han Shizi practiced another round of marksmanship.

After practice, he was not satisfied with it. He frowned and said, "it's not as good as xuanyuanli's magic weapon."

Han Yong smiles and says, "you don't have to worry. Xuanyuansheng doesn't necessarily have your skill at your age. He went to the battlefield early and was killed among the dead. What you are short of is just some experience opportunities. "

Han Shizi once again threw the red tassel gun to his bodyguard.

The red tassel gun was too heavy. The bodyguard staggered for several steps and almost missed it.

Han Shizi said, "are there any new masters in Shengdu recently?"

Han Yong said: "are you talking about the underground arena? Not yet. I'll let you know when I have one and let you go to the contest. In fact, the dead men of the Han family are also good, but unfortunately they are not the most suitable opponents because of their different ways. "

No matter how high or low the martial arts of the dead are, they are not the most suitable companions. Fighting with them only stimulates the instinct of killing people, not the benefits of martial arts.

Han Yong then said: "in Shengdu, you are hard to meet opponents. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Ah, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you something. "

Han Shizi said, "second uncle, please say it."

Han Yong said: "the birthday of the monarch is coming. Your concubine has sent a message from the palace to invite your two brothers to the palace for dinner."

Han Shizi paused and said, "Cher is so hurt that I'm afraid I can't go."

Han Yong said with a smile, "you can go."

Han Shizi didn't say whether to go or not. Instead, he asked, "isn't the monarch long overdue? Why did you have a birthday party all of a sudden? "

The birthdays of the monarch and the grand daughter are on the same day. Since the grand daughter colluded with the Xuanyuan family for rebellion, the birthday of the monarch has never been arranged any more.

Han Yong smiles, sighs and shakes his head: "who knows? Our majesty is the most moody and eccentric. No one can guess what he thinks

"My son!"

While they were talking, two experts who were sent to watch came back. They were all close bodyguards of Han Shizi, one was Sun Feng, the other was Zheng Hai.

It was Sun Feng who had his wallet stolen.

They both saluted Han Shizi.

Han Shizi looked at their disheartened appearance and asked, "why did you come back so early? What about the people you want to talk to? "

Two people looked at each other, sun Feng hard scalp arched back: "with, with lost."

"Lost it?" Han Shizi was slightly surprised, "can you two still lose people?"

The two men were ashamed.

They are Han Shizi's confidants and bodyguards. They are not small. They seldom fail to help Han Shizi before and after. Today is their carelessness.

"Sun Feng's purse was also stolen." Zheng Hai said.

Sun Feng glared at Zheng Hai: "don't I ask you not to mention it?"

How can the Han family's bodyguard let a thief follow his purse? Is it shameful to talk about it?

Sun Feng has understood that the purse was carried by the little girl.

But Rao is so, he and Zheng Hai did not connect her with the boy to be followed, after all, one is a woman, the other is a man.

Han Shizi took a cold look at them: "go down and get the punishment yourself."

"Yes

They bowed down.

Han Yong asked: "who is so powerful that he threw away all your people?"

Han Shizi said lightly: "a student who came to China has some ability to defeat cherl. I want to see if there is anyone behind him to direct him."

"Oh? It turns out that cherl was injured by a Chinese Han Yong is angry and funny, "bullying the legitimate son of the Han family, isn't that the groundbreaking of Taisui's head? In Shengdu, there are few people who have the courage to do this. They are either Mu family or Nangong family. "

The Mu family is old, and the Nangong family is fighting for military power.

Han Shizi looked at the flowers in the garden and said, "he's really a classmate of Mu Qingchen, but mu Qingchen won't do it. Mu Qingchen will only rush at me when he has something to do, and he won't attack cherl."

Han Yong touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "then there's only Nangong family left."

Han Shizi frowned slightly: "Nangong family?"

Han Yong nodded and said bluntly, "yes, the Nangong family has always wanted our Heifeng riding, and we have always been greedy for the military power of the Nangong family. Sooner or later, it's a matter of time."

Han Shizi pondered for a moment and said, "why do I think it's not the Nangong family?"

Han Yong said: "besides the Nangong family, who else will come to deal with the Han family? Wang family? The Wangs don't have that in mind. "

He said, seeing that his nephew was still thinking deeply, he said with a faint smile, "don't you think he has the courage to challenge the Han family? Not to mention that he is just a descendant, even the son of the aristocratic family of shangguo has never been able to compete with the whole Han family on his own. As long as he is not crazy, he will not do so. "

"What's more, don't you think it's a strange thing that Zhaoguo suddenly has some students? The Academy of Yan has never had any students of Zhao. "

Han Shizi frowned: "you mean they were originally from Nangong family?"

Han Yong added: "do you remember that general Nangong was killed by the bandits?"

Han Shizi said, "I remember."

Han Yong sneered: "general Nangong didn't go back to his hometown to worship his ancestors, but went to Zhao secretly. His arm was not hurt by the bandits at all. I don't know exactly what happened. However, shortly after he returned to Shengdu, these Zhao people came. Do you think it's a coincidence? "

……

After Gu Jiao returned to her house, she told her family about Gu Chengfeng's visit to Shengdu.

The family were surprised.

"He has no guide. How did he get here?" Nanshi Niang asked, "it can't be..."

Gu Jiao said, "I've made a slave mark."

Nanshi Niang took a breath.

Gu Xiaoer is also too cruel. In order to make the capital prosperous, he would not hesitate to mark it as a slave. This mark will be with him for a lifetime.

"Is he OK?" Asked Nanshi Niang.

Gu Jiao said: "found a suitable hiding place, nothing for the time being."

"This child..." Nanshi Niang doesn't know what to say. Gu's children are more and more stubborn. They will do whatever they decide, such as treating Gu Changqing of Gu Jiao and Gu Yan of Gu Jiao.

Now there is another Gu Chengfeng.

However, this is not a bad thing for Gu Jiao and Gu Yan. They have no relatives in Sheng. It's always good to have more helpers.

Two days later, Gu Jiao went to yanshanjun's residence. The little princess was still afraid to mount her horse. She was still caught by Gu Jiao impolitely and finished the riding lesson in a burst of wailing.

"The next few days... ER! You don't have to... "

The little princess cried and burped, but when she got off the horse, she stopped crying.

"Take your time." Gu Jiao said.

"I'm slowly... ER!" The little princess belched again, feeling that it was better to make a long story short in her own state, "I can't have class... ER! My king and uncle want to... ER! Longevity... ER! My father is not here... ER! I want to... ER! Go to dinner for him... ER! "

In fact, it's still a while before her Majesty's uncle's birthday party, but she has to live in the palace ahead of time, so she can't attend class for the time being.

This is exactly what Gu Jiao wants, because Gu Jiao is about to prepare for the next batting competition, and probably has no time to teach her.

"We'll learn to ride again when the little princess is finished."

"Ladou."

The little princess immediately covered her mouth.

She is famous for her eloquence and eloquence, but she is too young to speak a different word very well.

Gu Jiao bent the corner of her lips, stretched out her fingers and did not mention her pronunciation.

The little princess also stretched out her little finger and hooked Gu Jiao.

On the night before the game, Wu Fu Zi took Gu Jiao and his party to the inn as usual.

When Muchuan entered the inn, he couldn't help muttering: "didn't we win last time? Why do you live in such a shabby Inn? "

Isn't that because of the tight budget?

To be honest, the Academy did allocate a little more money, but this year, the price of the tavern went up again and again.

Wu Fu Zi patted his chest and said, "I promise you that as long as you win this game, I'll pay for a better hotel for you in the final."

Muchuan turned his lips, obviously not believing it.

Wu Fu Zi looked at the other students again, and the other students also looked suspicious.

Wu Fu Zi said, "what's wrong with this inn? There's a lantern party tonight! It's near here! I'm a special inn! I'll allow you to... Go and see the lanterns tonight! Come back before the hour of the sea

This is the biggest concession wufuzi can make.

Muchuan suddenly came to Gu Jiao's side and went upstairs with her: "Hey, LIULANG, you haven't visited the Lantern Festival in Shengdu, have you?"

"Well." Gu Jiao steps upstairs.

Muchuan said with a smile, "go and have a look later?"

"Good." Gu Jiao should go down.

Muchuan looked back at mu Qingchen behind him: "are you going, fourth brother? Forget it, you won't go for sure. " His fourth brother is not interested in lanterns.

Several people came to the second floor, mu Qingchen pushed open his door, looking to Gu Jiao's direction: "see you at the door."

Muchuan a Leng, four elder brothers this is to want to go of meaning?

I'll see you for a long time. Does his fourth brother go to the lantern fair one day?

Zhao Wei and Yuan Xiao have nothing to do. They gather at the door together.

Master Wu is here.

Muchuan's smile froze: "Master Wu, what are you doing here?"

Wufuzi said, "I think about it. I'll stay with you, or I won't be at ease."

Muchuan

Wufuzi didn't deceive them about the lantern. It's really near the inn. Just walk a hundred steps ahead and turn a corner.

Along the long street, the light market is like a rainbow. On both sides of the street are stalls with lanterns. The peddlers are doing lanterns while shouting. Pedestrians have already poured in, and the crowds are crowded.

But the streets are busy but not chaotic, noisy but not noisy, crowded but not crowded, and orderly.

Not all of the lanterns here are bought with silver. There are also lantern riddles or poems.

Gu Jiao likes to be lively.

It's like a child seeing a toy.

Although she is essentially a quiet person.

"Childe, buy a lantern!"

On the side, an old lady said kindly to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao stopped and looked at the lantern handed over by the eldest daughter-in-law. She blinked curiously.

good-looking.

Seeing that she liked it, the old lady picked up another one: "this is my wife's new lotus lamp. Buy it together. It's ten Wen cheaper!"

The lotus lamp is also beautiful.

Gu Jiao's eyes swept.

Oh, and peach blossom lamp. Peach blossom lamp is good-looking!

Mu light dust looked at her strangely: "you don't want to buy a lamp, do you?"

What kind of lantern does a big man buy? Just go for a walk.

Buy is also gifted gift beauty, where there are men staring at their own?

"Alas." Gu Jiao sighed and touched the peach blossom lamp in front of her. She couldn't buy the lantern, especially the pink one.

She put the lantern back in pain.

All of a sudden, a slender hand like jade came over, and the fingertips of jade carving clamped a silver naked son and put it on the stall. Then, a clean and low voice sounded slowly on Gu Jiao's side: "I want this peach blossom lamp."

Gu jiaoshua turned her head.

The other was wearing a silver mask, covering most of his face, revealing only his soft lips, delicate chin and deep eyes.

The night wind was blowing from his side, and the familiar breath on him came to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao was stunned.

Mu Qingchen has a good view of Gu Jiao's reaction. He frowns unconsciously. He looks warily at the young man who suddenly appears and is about to call Gu Jiao to leave. Just at this moment, the old man who sells lamps hangs up some newly made lanterns, but he doesn't stand firm. The whole man pours on the stall and the lanterns fly out.

Seeing that Gu Jiao is about to be hit, mu Qingchen reaches out to block the lantern.

And almost at the same moment of his hand, the young man also raised his hand to block the lantern. The difference is that his other hand hugged Gu Jiao in his arms.

And Gu Jiao didn't resist, so she jumped into his arms.

It was an illusion or something. Her little head rubbed against each other's chest.

"Are you all right?"

Mu light dust hears the other side light voice to ask.

"Nothing."

He heard Gu Jiao answer softly.

It's not the usual cold or uninhibited tone, but a feeling he can't say.

Just for a moment, they separated.

"Thank you for your help." Gu Jiao said politely.

Xiao Heng picked up the peach blossom lamp in his hand and said politely, "with a little help, my little brother and I are as good friends at first sight. This lantern will be given to my little brother."

"Obedience is better than respect." Gu Jiao took the lantern and said, "I'll give you one, too!"

Xiao Heng nodded with a smile: "good."

Gu Jiao bought a pink lotus lamp, which she liked: "here you are!"

This kind of lantern that women will like, mu Qingchen won't want, he thinks the other party won't either.

But Xiao Heng accepted it without hesitation, and sincerely said, "thank you for the lantern, little brother. Since you and I are familiar at first sight, we also exchanged gifts. It's better to go together."

Mu Qingchen: no way.

"Good!" Gu Jiao said frankly.

There are jugglers in front of us. Several people in Muchuan have already gone to watch the fun.

Mu light dust three people walk slowly in the long street.

Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng are carrying a lantern. They seem to have a very right feeling.

But it's all men. I'm in the mood of light dust.

"What about the clearance?" Gu Jiao asks Xiao Heng with her eyes.

Xiao Heng said in a low voice, "I've been called to make up lessons by my master."

Mu Qingchen said, "are you from Shengdu?"

Xiao Heng's language talent is at a high level, and Sheng Du's accent is more fluent than that of the local people.

"Yes." Xiao Heng said.

Mu Qingchen said: "I don't know your name."

Xiao Heng said, "dragon one."

Mu Qingchen: what's the name?

Xiao Heng ignores mu Qingchen's eccentricity and turns his head to ask Gu Jiao, "are you hungry? The dumplings over there are very good. "

"Hungry!" Gu Jiao said.

Three people went to sell bean flower stall, found an empty table to sit down, Mu light dust and Xiao Heng face to face.

"I'm not hungry, you eat." Mu light dust said, Mu family's son can't eat the things from roadside stall.

Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng each asked for a bowl of dumplings filled with cabbage and meat.

Then something strange happened again.

Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng reach out for the seasoning on the table at the same time. Gu Jiao takes vinegar and Xiao Heng takes spicy oil, but Gu Jiao puts vinegar in front of Xiao Heng and Xiao Heng puts spicy oil in Gu Jiao's hand.

Mu Qingchen
