265. Qinglou reunion adventure
Lord Li persuaded and explained: "Where is your opponent, if the blood is splashed on the spot, wouldn't it ruin your feast, and if you have a happy birthday, you can be happy every day, why bother with idle people." ”
Chu Lingxi thinks that what he said has some truth: "I will barely give you a face, and I won't see Xiong Chong for the time being~"
At the age of fifteen, she stood out in martial arts among her peers, but she was no match for the Lord of the Li Kingdom.
Fortunately, the lord of Li Guo was willing to make green leaves to set off, which made her stand out, and the sword dance of the banquet was rumored to be a good story.
The relationship between Chu Lingxi and the Lord of Li has gradually changed from simple to complex, with both gratitude and trust, as well as vigilance and use.
Lord Li cared too much about his status and identity, so he had to hide his habit of breaking his sleeves, and he also needed to marry a princess who was the most beneficial to the overall situation, so he locked his eyes on Chu Lingxi.
All political marriages are transactions, born in the emperor's family, rich and hard-working, he has no right to pursue personal happiness, and thinks that Chu Lingxi is the same.
From a utilitarian point of view, among all the noble children of the ten states of the demon clan, the conditions of the lord of the Li country are indeed the best, for Chu Yunhao, the fact that his sister becomes the princess of Li means that he has the support of Li Zhou behind him, even if the lord of the Chu state is heavy and light, he does not dare to easily mention the deposition of the dignity of the children of the concubine.
Since ancient times, a woman's marriage must follow the orders of her parents and abide by the words of the matchmaker, Chu Lingxi and her father do not agree, and their marriage should be decided by her brother Chu Yunhao.
Lord Li cares about Chu Lingxi, and the reason behind it is not simple.
Everyone in the world knows that Chu Yunhao is an out-and-out favorite sister madman, and in order to form an alliance with the army under his command, the lord of the country Li chose Chu Lingxi as a breakthrough.
In addition, Li Guozhu prefers male style and does not like ordinary women, but Chu Lingxi's personality is very similar to a tomboy, and he usually loves men's clothing, as if he was a good match specially arranged for him by God.
He grew up in a deformed and distorted original family, he didn't know what Qin Se and Ming were, he didn't know what it was, from childhood to adulthood, the women in the deep palace he saw were all tragedies, or turned against their husbands, or failed to die in the palace fight, or spent their days in the cold palace desolate.
Lord Li doesn't love Chu Lingxi, but he has a similar brother and sister like, he believes that the two can become a model pseudo-couple who respect each other like guests and raise their eyebrows, except for the joy of Wushan Yunyu, he is willing to meet all her requirements.
He originally thought that Chu Yunhao would not have any objections to this, the emperor and prince heirs are ruthless, the road to the throne is mostly paved by the blood and flesh of relatives, the women of the royal family are born to be pawns in political strategy, how many princesses have been sent to foreign races and relatives thousands of miles away, and they will never be able to return to their homeland for the rest of their lives.
However, to the surprise of Lord Li, when facing Chu Lingxi's lifelong event, Chu Yunhao was not the crown prince of Chuzhou, but the elder brother who hoped that his sister would be happy.
After learning that the lord of the Li country was hiding Longyang's fetish, Chu Yunhao immediately made a decision not to allow his sister to be alone with him anymore, and angrily reprimanded him for his sinister intentions.
The three passages he said will never be forgotten by the lord of the country-
"High-sounding words can't hide your ugly selfishness, lies will only destroy you, not achieve you!"
"If you marry any woman, it will be a disaster, and the end can only be to harm others and yourself!"
"Lingxi will not sacrifice for Chuzhou, nor will she sacrifice for me, she only lives for herself, she has the right to choose her own life, she is qualified to pursue her own happiness!"
It was Chu Yunhao who made Lord Li understand that true family affection is not selfishness, but selflessness, and that a true hero has a heroic and righteous spirit, and will not be confused by worldly utilitarianism.
Under the protection of her brother, Chu Lingxi became the unique domineering princess of the demon clan, free and chic.
The friendship between Lord Li and Chu Lingxi has been interrupted for nearly a hundred years, and the reunion is in the mixed flower street and willow lane.
The harem of Lizhou has been empty for a long time, and the states of the demon clan have taken turns to send envoys to discuss relatives, and the lord of Li is annoyed, and he does not hesitate to destroy his reputation, and deliberately walks around the flower building in his spare time, pretending to be a prodigal son who has no intention of getting married, and at the same time can also cover up his real habits.
He had no interest in women, and after listening to a few pipa songs, he sent the singer and his attendant away, bathed alone, and washed away the turbidity around him.
Chu Lingxi happened to be in the same green building as him, dressed in sassy men's clothes, and was drinking and having fun with several generals in the army, when he raised his eyes and found that his brother was coming with a black face, he immediately threw down his wine glass, and fled through the window with ease.
Chu Yunhao did not allow his sister to mess around in the land of three religions and nine streams, and often led people to surround and intercept her, and the brother and sister seemed to be playing a high-level cat and mouse game.
As the saying goes, the road is one foot high, and the magic is one foot high, Chu Lingxi practiced and escaped from the Heavenly Divine Skill, and repeatedly broke his brother's encirclement.
However, there are countermeasures, and the upper will strengthen the policy, she just wanted to jump down from the second floor, and found that there were more than ten familiar figures standing under the window, which were under her brother's henchmen, obviously a tactic to catch turtles in the urn, and wanted to trap her in it.
Chu Lingxi immediately made a decision, changed his strategy, and got out of the roof.
In order not to alarm the people downstairs, she was cautious, and planned to get closer to the roof step by step, and first flew up and jumped diagonally, pausing on the balcony outside the room on the third floor.
Unexpectedly, a flying knife infused with powerful mana broke out of the window, but fortunately, she was clever and flashed quickly, so there was no blood splashed on the spot.
"Friend, calm down, I'm just borrowing a way and leaving immediately!"
At this time, there must be no conflict with people, Chu Lingxi while maneuvering with the people in the room, while lowering his eyes to look at the flying knife that pierced into the golden nanmu, there are two maple leaves carved on the delicate handle, which is quite familiar.
Most of the weapons of the demon men are decorated with fierce beasts or auspicious rui, and there are very few people who carve flowers and plants, and there is only one person who carves maple leaves, so she boldly asked: "Brother Kai?... Is that you?"
She had curiously asked Lord Li why there was a maple leaf-shaped decoration on each weapon, and the reply she received was-
"The maple leaves are drunk with red autumn colors, and in the sunset of two or three rows of geese, it is my favorite beauty. ”
Such a poetic and unaware expression is a profound mystery that she cannot understand.
The only person in the world who calls him Brother Kai is Chu Lingxi, the lord of the country immediately dressed with spells, and when he opened the window, he saw the old man, and the little girl in the past grew up and grew taller, but the fox-like smart and cunning eyes have never changed.
At this time, she heard the sound of tiles rustling on the roof, and she had to enter the room first.
Lord Li was puzzled: "Could it be... Is there an enemy chasing you?"
"My brother won't let me come to play in such a place, and if he finds out, I will be scolded and punished again..."
Chu Lingxi's ghost clever eyes rolled, and after thinking about it, he resorted to the coquettish Dafa: "Brother Kai, help me cover to escape this catastrophe, and save my helpless, poor and lovely sister, okay~"
Lonely men and widows are living in a room in the Qinglou, and it will be a shocking scandal if it is spread out, and the only way for the lord of Li to hide her is to go.
Chu Lingxi had already spotted a good place, and the bath full of rose petals was just hiding.
"Brother Kai, you are really a delicate and beautiful man, and the baths are all petal baths!"
She vaguely felt that it was not normal, but she didn't have time to think about it.
