When Gong Xiang was a child, she heard the old housekeeper tell the story of "luring the wolf into the house", but at that time she just listened to it as a story, because at that time she didn't know at all, The world's human heart is far more terrible than jackals, tigers and leopards......

Gong Xiang, who adheres to the respect of the guests, and the orderly and orderly rules of the elders and young, will be accompanied by Gao Chen and his party after entering the Taibai Building, although as the daughter of the palace family, the young master of the Taibai Building, but in such a grand and lively martial arts conference, Gong Xiang can not accompany his parents, can only bow to the last seat, so as not to mess up the rules.

Gong Xiang saw everything that happened just now, and what the foreigner who called Zongzan said attracted Gong Xiang's attention.

Gong Xiang involuntarily moved his gaze to Gao Chen and observed his every move......

Is this person really related to the Gong family? Can he really be trusted?

For some reason, Gong Xiang always felt that he couldn't see through Gao Chen, Gao Chen gave people a very contradictory feeling, his elegant and erudite knowledge made people want to get close to him a little involuntarily, but his strategy and calculation made people have to deliberately guard against and keep their distance.

Gong Xiang knew very well in her heart that she invited Gao Chen into Taibai Mansion and must not rely on him to help the four great families survive this crisis, but the person who needed to be wary of more was Gao Chen, because he was not a greedy jackal like Zhao Song, he was a tiger with a smile on his face but sharp teeth and claws!

The current martial arts struggle that was nominally provoked by the grievances between the north and the south was actually the struggle for power between the imperial power of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the governor of the state and town. And the four great families are in this dilemma, and if they are not careful, they will be destroyed.

Thinking of this, Gong Xiang's eyebrows did not feel a little more worried, and he was even more worried about the increasingly difficult situation of the four great families in the future......

During the banquet, Xiao Shaoshuai's piano sound was really far-reaching, wonderful, and had the power to hit people's hearts and cleanse their souls. Gong Xiang listened to the sound of the piano, and the anxiety and uneasiness in his heart gradually calmed down, but unfortunately, most people in the rivers and lakes were more focused on those meaningless competitions.

Xiao Shaoshuai's piano sound stopped, and Gao Chen seemed to be angry.

As soon as he spoke, he pointed directly at Zhao Song, his words were full of ridicule, and he didn't take Zhao Song in his eyes at all.

And his sentence that Zhao Song continued to start the third game made Gong Xiang realize very clearly that she really did a fool who "lured the wolf into the room" this time, but Gao Chen is not a wolf, he is a smiling tiger that is more terrible than a wolf!

And Gao Chen is indeed here for the four great families......

After Xiao Jue stopped playing, he left the table and sat side by side with Gao Chen, obviously sensing that the situation on the field was different, and he was worried that someone would take the opportunity to make trouble, so he took the initiative to sit at the same table with Gao Chen just in case, so as to deal with it.

The guests were disinterested, as the host, they naturally got the condolences and excuses during the banquet, and Gong Xiang went to the banquet to personally pour tea to make amends, and Gao Chen and Xiao Jue are both easy-going and easy-looking people, so they naturally treat each other with courtesy.

"This piano is heavy, the sound is warm and elegant, the aftertaste lingers, exquisite and unparalleled, if you don't guess wrong, this piano should be the piano of everyone in Shuzhong. ”

Gong Xiang showed joy on his face, for Xiao Yu not only knows the rhythm of music, but also is a person who knows the qin, understands the qin, and loves the qin.

"Brother Jue's discerning eyes are indeed Lei's qin. ”

This brother called me so kindly, and I couldn't help but feel a little surprised when I was bored sitting on the side.

"The holy hand of the famous qin should complement each other, but there are some ordinary people in front of me, who do not know how to cherish the form and destroy the heavenly things, and do not know that the precious things in the world are long gone. Do you know that if you want your brother to play a song, how much is it worth? I think back then, only 9,000 gold almost bankrupted my family......

I sighed to myself on the side, speaking of the back, Jue's face changed slightly, seeing that I had not yet restrained the meaning, he quietly moved to my waist, which made me tremble, almost screamed, I couldn't help coughing, and my face was flushed in an instant.

Ahem.

"If you're thirsty, let's drink tea to moisten your throat!"

Jue said with a smile as he personally refilled the tea for me, was he worried that I would talk nonsense again?

Gong Xiang was also stunned when he looked at the behavior of the two of us, and he only felt that the Wen Yiwu in front of him was the same, with similar personalities and complementing each other.

Gong Xiang couldn't help but laugh when he saw that I was embarrassed and embarrassed at this time.

The way this girl smiles slightly is also very cute!

"Girl, I just saw you with a sad look on your face, which is pitiful, or you can also call me brother, brother can solve problems for you?"

I'm even deceiving and coaxing, and my face or something has probably been abandoned by me a long time ago.

Gong Xiang's cultivation is excellent, she didn't move immediately, her expression became light, and she just said that I was taking the opportunity to tease her again, but asked me a rhetorical question, and said:

"If Xiang'er calls your brother, will you stop coming here?"

Oh, what a smart girl!

"No, you can't. ”

My response was also simple and clear.

"Or, you can save your own people in your own way. ”

Gong Xiang's eyes were a little gloomy, but he did not lose the courage to fight.

"The Four Families can be impartial and neutral. ”

Xiang Yatou's words understand that the real cause of this battle still stems from the power struggle within the Northern Wei Dynasty, with such a torch-like gaze, I believe that the future palace family will be able to keep the peace of this life in her hands.

"The imperial court never condones ambiguity, and the so-called neutrality is also to a certain extent unclear, after all, the situation is stronger than people, and verbal promises lack sincerity after all. At this critical juncture, any danger should be guarded against. ”

Looking at my tone without any signs of loosening, Gong Xiang also understood more and more the precipitous situation now, the contradiction between the Northern Wei court and the governor of the state and town has become deeper and deeper, since the Northern Qi has been destroyed, and the border has gradually returned to calm, that is the best time for the Northern Wei Dynasty to purge the government and collect military power.

"Aren't you worried that such an urgent desire will backfire and force the four great families to the opposite side?"

Gong Xiang's tone also had a bit of coercion, and she also took advantage of the trend, after all, the four great families had no intention of falling into the whirlpool of power in the court, because the blood lessons left by the palace family were too much, so there was a □□ that the ancestors explicitly ordered the descendants of the palace family not to enter the court as officials, but this also caused the palace family to break away from the center of power, and the prestige and status were long gone.

was forced to show her hole cards so quickly, and it seems that Xiang Yatou still needs to be honed more.

The corners of my mouth rose slightly, and I asked a rhetorical question lightly, saying:

"Do the four great families dare?"

This sentence alone made Gong Xiang defeated.

Seeing that I was too harsh on the girl, the next to me reached out and pulled my sleeve under the table.

I sighed a little helplessly, and I really like Xiangya.

"Xiang girl, the ancestors of the palace family were forced by the situation, and they have been pursuing the way of Mingzhe to protect themselves for a hundred years, so that the palace family can be safe until now, but now, the general trend of the world has changed again, and Mingzhe has obviously not adapted to the current situation. Do you understand what I'm talking about?"

Gong Xiang's eyes were a little confused, she knew that she should be wary of Gao Chen, and she should not easily believe what he said, but now Gong Xiang knew that what Gao Chen said was right.

The picture is saved, and the palace family really can't just try to be in a corner of peace.

In the face of today's crisis and the current volatile situation, what should I do to keep the palace family?

"Xiang'er understands, but the future is uncertain, and there is still a fog in her eyes......"

Gong Xiang took the initiative to pour tea for me as he spoke, begging me for advice.

This girl is really very smart, she can understand everything!

"Then, call me brother, and I'll help you. ”

I've said that the conditions are so tempting, this girl can't still be so stubborn, right?

When Gong Xiang heard this, his face turned red, and he didn't understand why Gao Chen was so obsessed with calling him his brother, wasn't it because he recognized Xiao Shaoshuai as his brother?

It's too childish, like a child......

As soon as he thought of this, Gong Xiang seemed to have discovered the difference between Gao Chen and others. He was a hateful old fox in politics, but in some ways he was as naïve as a child.

The more the opponent wants to get something, naturally he can't easily let him get it.

"Hmph, are you coercing and enticing?"

Gong Xiang put on a look of swearing to die, it is obvious that this girl's stubborn temper has come up, and it is quite helpless to be stubborn and willful.

I couldn't help but purse my lips and smile, this hand was my anxious, revealing my intentions, and I was caught by this girl, so she refused so simply!

"You'll always be willing to call me brother!"

I said this happily, with a calm and confident face.

For some reason, at this moment, the words that Zong Zan had said resurfaced in Gong Xiang's mind.

Zong Zan not only mistook Gao Chen for a disciple of the palace family, but also called him "Brother Concubine......

Should I ask Gao Chen about the doubts in my heart at this time?

I took a sip from my teacup, then smiled and said:

"Since I drank your tea, I have to repay your favor. ”

Gong Xiang's face was slightly surprised, as if he had not yet understood the meaning of what I said.

At this time, the third competition is about to begin, and as expected, the protagonist of the third finale is the third strange man brought by Zhao Song who does not recognize his true face.

The man in the hooded black robe slowly walked to the midfield, and between the lightning and flint, he pulled out a long sword out of nowhere, and actually practiced the sword move by himself, and everyone was surprised.

But when he saw that the sword move practiced by this person was actually the trick "Flying Star Arch Moon" used by Qin Xuan against Li Ghost, the most surprising thing was Qin Xuan himself.

How could it be? Since it is known as a skill, how can it be so easy to be stolen by others?

What surprised Qin Xuan was not that his own tricks were used by the other party originally, but that this person's martial arts attainments were by no means below him, because this trick was used in the hands of this person, the sword qi was abundant, and the trend was like a dragon.

Such a person doesn't need to steal other people's moves and skills at all!

......

Because I missed the part where Qin Xuan fought against Li Gui, when this person practiced Qin Xuan's special skill "Flying Star Arch Moon" in front of me, for some reason, I felt as if I had received a heavy blow in my heart, and suddenly there was an incomparably strong pain eroding my heart, and there were bursts of pain in my chest.

I couldn't help but gasp, and the teacup in my hand almost fell, and the tea was scattered on the table.

Beside me, Jue took the teacup in my hand in time and put it back on the table safely, and held my pulse with the other, secretly checking my pulse, which showed that she had already noticed my abnormality, and she couldn't help but have a worried look on her face.

I smiled bitterly, looked at Jue and shook my head slightly to indicate that I was fine, and wanted Jue to relax for the time being.

Then he looked at the girl who was a little unclear, and said with a smile:

"Xiang girl, please help me call my steward Ah Zheng, Xue'er is tired after a day, I want him to take Xue'er back to settle first. ”

Gong Xiang also sensed that something was wrong, but looking at Xiao Xue'er who was gradually sleeping in my arms, she didn't say anything more, bowed slightly, and retreated.

Withdrawing her hand, under the cover of the wide cuffs, Jue took the initiative to hold my hand, because she felt my hands trembling involuntarily......

I slowly closed my eyes, recalling memories that I didn't want to remember, and there are some things that you can't forget if you want to.

Yes, I have seen the trick that the man practiced.

"Who is the owner of this sword move?"

When I opened my eyes again, I asked the question coldly.

Jue was silent for a moment, and then slowly said a person's name, and said:

"Qin Xuan. ”
