The boat sails across the lake, peeling off the layers of ripples, the koi fish in the lake have avoided, the sun shines on the lake, and you can vaguely see the wild grass at the bottom of the lake, the blue waves dàng) ripple, very charming and beautiful.

There is a young man sitting on the boat, who looks ordinary, but naturally has a somewhat resolute look, giving people a simple and down-to-earth feeling, Cheng Zihao looked at the beautiful scenery on Jiulong Lake and was stunned, this is the first time he stepped into the gate of Qingwangfu, and it is also the first time he has seen the beautiful scenery of Rusi, he has already been intoxicated and lingered, and he did not see Chen Linci in the pavilion on the island in the middle of the lake in the distance.

But Chen Linci recognized him at a glance.

Since the farewell of Yuelai Restaurant in Linxi City, the two have never met, and now it has been more than half a year, when the old people see each other again, they should be full of excitement in their hearts, but Chen Linci looked at the emaciated face of the big brother on the boat in the distance, but he couldn't get excited in his heart.

He didn't know how Cheng Zihao got involved with the eldest prince, but he knew that for the sake of the eldest prince, it was absolutely impossible to look down on Cheng Zihao and take the initiative to make friends, he must want to use Cheng Zihao to do something, so he would spend so much time.

Chen Linci is not a stupid person, and he still can't guess who the eldest prince is coming to, but he really can't figure out what is worthy of such attention from the prince of a country.

The boat didn't sail fast, but Jiulong Lake was such a big place, so it didn't take long for the boat to sail to the island in the middle of the lake.

Cheng Zihao didn't dare to raise his head, and after getting off the boat, he kept bowing his head and holding his fists and saluting outside the Huxin Pavilion, kneeling on one knee and saying: "Cheng Zihao, the halberd of the lowly Imperial Forest Army, meet His Majesty King Qing." ”

The eldest prince laughed and hurriedly said, "Brother Zihao, please hurry up, and see who I invited to meet you today." ”

Hearing the eldest prince call himself Brother Zihao, Cheng Zihao felt a lot of awkwardness in his heart, but more of it was as comfortable as a bathing breeze, he raised his head and slowly looked towards the pavilion, and when he saw the familiar shadow, his face was immediately full of shock.

He rubbed his eyes to make sure that he was not mistaken, so he stepped forward overjoyed and said with a smile: "Chen Linci, why are you also in King Qing's mansion?"

Chen Linci smiled and said, "Brother, since I left Linxi City last year, I have been in Kyoto, and today I am also invited by Prince Qing, so I am fortunate to meet you here." ”

The eldest prince smiled slightly and motioned for Cheng Zihao to take a seat, but he didn't say anything, leaving enough time for the two to catch up.

After Cheng Zihao sat down, his face was still as usual, but his heart was already full of turbulence, and he looked at Chen Linci's gaze and felt a little apologetic.

He also thought that it was the eldest prince who was afraid that he would not be strong enough to join the gang, so he didn't know how to deceive Chen Linci as a chain to bind him, but he didn't know if he guessed correctly, but he confused the primary and secondary relationship of the characters. He has always been just the chain that binds people, not the people who are bound by chains.

Cheng Zihao was afraid that the eldest prince would be unhappy, so he didn't show any discoloration on his face, he smiled and said: "

Brother, it's good that you are also in Yingtian City, your brother and I are now taken care of by Prince Qing, and I am already a dignified Imperial Forest Army Halberd Lang, and I will work hard in Yingtian City in the future, my brother will take care of you, and I will never let you live like the kind of bitterness in Linxi City again. ”

Speaking of this, he also patted his chest, his face was full of joy of reunion, Chen Linci also felt a little warm in his heart, he just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by the eldest prince.

The eldest prince opened the folding fan and shook it, and laughed: "Brother Zihao, I'm afraid you haven't heard of the reputation of Little Brother Chen, but now in this Yingtian City, the three words Chen Linci are absolutely thunderous, he said that it is the second, I am afraid that few people dare to come out and say the first without long eyes." ”

Cheng Zihao smiled when he heard this: "Don't make fun of my little brother, he does have a book that is true, but in a place like Yingtian City, where Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is nothing, Zihao just wants him to live a safe and happy life, where do you dare to expect so much." ”

Chen Linci smiled slightly and didn't speak, and the eldest prince smiled and said, "Brother Zihao, it seems that you don't know much about your little brother." ”

Cheng Zihao saw that the eldest prince had something to say, so he bowed his head and was silent, and did not dare to continue to answer.

The eldest prince continued: "Last autumn, Chen Linci entered Yingtian from Linxi City, defeated many cultivators with the strength of this and was admitted to the Starry Night Academy with the top score in the martial arts list, and then his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, and defeated Shen Haoyuan of the Kaiyang realm at the martial arts conference held in Yuanjiacheng. Brother Zihao, do you think this record is enough to gain a foothold in Yingtian City?"

Cheng Zihao was stunned, looked at Chen Linci on the side in disbelief, and asked in surprise: "What you said is true?"

Chen Linci nodded, smiled and hummed.

Cheng Zihao laughed, didn't care about the eldest prince on the spot, patted Chen Linci's back, and said excitedly: "When I was in Linxi City, I knew that your kid was definitely not an ordinary person, no wonder you were not interested in the work of headcatchers, but I didn't expect you to be so good now, my brother is really happy for you." ”

Chen Linci said with a smile: "Thanks to the care of these old brothers in Linxi City, Chen Linci can have today." ”

"Well, you can't say that. Cheng Zihao sighed and said: "Your brother doesn't have any great skills, I thought that I could take care of you after being a halberd man, but I never thought that you were so beautiful in the capital for only half a year, my brother is ashamed." ”

He sighed, but it was not because Chen Linci was more beautiful than him now, but because he had already understood in his heart that he had become a burden to Chen Linci.

When he was above the gate of Yingtian City, he couldn't figure out why the dignified prince attached so much importance to himself as a small catcher from the border city, and now when he saw Chen Linci, he suddenly realized that his little brother is so good now, and if the prince wants to rebel, he must want to get his support very much, can

If you can take yourself down, you can tie Chen Linci to the boat more easily.

I thought I was the one who was locked in chains, but I didn't expect that I was just that chain, Cheng Zihao's heart was mixed, on the one hand, he was really happy because of Chen Linci's achievements today, but on the other hand, he also had some melancholy and emotion.

The young man who was secretly taken care of everywhere in the underworld of Linxi City back then has grown into such a powerful character, but he is still just a small halberd, and he was tied to the thief ship of the eldest prince and became a burden to that young man.

It's just that in front of the eldest prince, the two of them are very clear in their hearts, and there are many words that are inconvenient to say, and the scene fell into a very embarrassing atmosphere for a while.

Seeing the embarrassment of the scene, the eldest prince coughed lightly twice and laughed: "Little Brother Chen, don't worry, with this king here, Brother Zihao will definitely have a smooth road in Yingtian City in the future, and he will be on a smooth journey." ”

"Thank you for taking care of me. Chen Linci picked up his glass and thanked him.

Cheng Zihao also raised his wine glass awkwardly and saluted the eldest prince together.

Under this light, in this Jiulong Lake, in this Lake Pavilion, the three of them finished their lunch in this very delicate atmosphere, Chen Lin left on the grounds that there was something in the college, and he wanted to talk to Cheng Zihao after leaving the mansion, but he didn't want Cheng Zihao to be left in the mansion by the eldest prince.

This meal said that it was to arrange a reunion of the old people, but I didn't expect that it was really just a reunion of the old people, the eldest prince didn't say anything else, but Chen Linci knew in his heart that he was using the meal to let himself know that Cheng Zihao was completely under his control.

What the hell does he want to do for him?

......

......

After Chen Lin left the Qingwang Mansion, he did not immediately return to the Starry Night Academy, nor did he go back to his small courtyard, but after looking around to make sure that no one was following him, he walked towards the main hall of the Changle Gang.

This is the second time he went to the Changle Gang, the first time he came was when he just entered Yingtian City, under the leadership of Bai Fengxuan, he wanted to join the Changle Gang to eat, and then Bai Fengxuan died in his own hands, Jin Zihui came to seek revenge, but was shocked by the monstrous appearance of the sea, and the Changle Gang also became an industry under his name.

Although he didn't know much about the Changle Gang, according to his experience in Linxi City for several years, he knew very well that the news in the casinos and courtyards in the underworld was no less well-informed than any official yamen, and he needed the Changle Gang to help him find out how many dark tides were surging under the calm surface of the court.

Bypassing more than a dozen streets and alleys in Yingtian City, after half a year, Chen Linci came here again with his memory.

Walking to the door of the Changle Gang General Hall, this time there was no introduction from a character like Bai Fengxuan, and he was naturally blocked from the door.

Looking at the few fierce and sturdy men in front of the door, and thinking that he had never seen the world when he first came here, Chen Linci smiled slightly and said in a low voice: "Let Jin Zihui come out to see me." ”

A few men heard that the kid in front of him didn't know whether to live or dare to call the gang leader by his name, just reprimanded, but was stopped by the big man at the head, Ying Tiancheng is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, the nobleman is like a cloud, he has been mixed in the Changle Gang for many years, and the work is naturally more secure than the next few newcomers, and now the soul of the national teacher has returned to the sea of stars, His Majesty the Emperor is dying of old age, and the capital is in a very sensitive period, he doesn't want to cause trouble for the Changle Gang because of these little things.

So he took a step forward and said with a humble and arrogant attitude: "This little brother, you wait first, and I will go in and report to the helper immediately." ”
