Chapter 64: Door-to-door gifts
Qingfeng sat up from the bed and asked, "Say, do you have anything to do with me this time?"
The man in black sat at the table and poured himself a cup of tea: "Last time I took you into the Imperial City, you were quite high-profile, and you made such a big move, even General Lan was alarmed." ”
Qingfeng Lan thought for a while and asked, "No, I didn't alarm General Lan last time, from the time I went in to the time I came out, I didn't feel his existence, and today is the first time we have met." ”
The man in black sneered: "I also happened to see it, after you went to the palace of the ninth princess, I had nothing to do, so I quietly followed, just when you entered the palace, General Lan stood in the distance and watched you." It's a good thing you didn't do anything out of the ordinary, otherwise I'd have been going to incense you next year and now. ”
Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, constantly recalling what happened that day in his mind, but he couldn't remember that someone was looking at him, and he didn't even feel a trace of it.
Seeing Qing Fenglan's face, the man in black comforted: "It's okay, General Lan is the strongest man in the empire after all, it's normal that you don't notice it, after all, it's a man standing at the extreme." ”
Qingfeng: "Since General Lan is watching me from a short distance, why haven't I noticed you?"
The man in black: "Why didn't you notice me?" As soon as I took a step, he looked over and saw that it was me who was a little minion, and he ignored it. ”
Qingfeng Lan asked curiously, "Then do you know what General Lan's realm is?"
The man in black raised his head and thought for a moment and replied, "I don't know, but I heard that the pavilion master of the Kyushu Sword Pavilion came to challenge him before, and with just one sword, the pavilion master was repulsed. ”
Qingfeng opened his mouth wide in surprise and looked at the man in black in front of him in disbelief.
The man in black smiled after seeing Qing Fenglan's expression: "You don't have to be so surprised, after all, this kind of person is a heaven to eat, and mortals like us can't compare." ”
Qingfeng sighed and muttered quietly: "It seems that there are really mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people, and my previous self was still too frivolous." ”
The man in black said a few more words to Qingfeng Lang and then left, looking at the wide open window, Qingfeng Lan smiled and lay back on the bed. Although this guy didn't say anything, it can be seen that he just came to see if he was injured, and he seems to be a good person, but he doesn't know if he has a family, and his sister is old.
Not long after lying down, Xuan Yue walked in with a food box, smelling the fragrance of the food from a distance, Qingfeng Lan couldn't control his mouth at all, grabbed the food on the table and sent it to his mouth frantically.
Xuanyue saw Qingfenglan's eating appearance, and the corners of her mouth twitched, originally these foods belonged to two people, but it seems that it is good to be able to eat Qingfenglan alone.
Watching the breeze inhale the food on the table like a whirlwind cloud, Xuanyue retreated with interest.
After eating, Qingfeng touched his slightly bulging belly and lay happily on the bed, and he didn't wait long before there was a shocking snoring sound from the room.
Nothing was said all night.
The next day, knowing noon, Qingfeng Lan walked out of the room with his eyes rubbed, and Qingfeng Lan who came out stretched his limbs vigorously.
When she was doing stretching exercises, Xuan Yue walked in from outside the door and saw Qingfeng Lan doing some strange movements, so she didn't bother, standing aside and waiting quietly.
Qingfeng Lan raised his head after doing it all and saw Xuanyue, and asked with a smile, "Good morning, when did you come?" ”
Xuan Yue stepped forward and stood opposite Qingfeng Lan and said, "I also just came, I went to the martial arts academy this morning, and Chief Chen personally came to announce the decree. ”
Qingfeng: "Well, oh, what's the matter, what do you need me to do?"
Xuan Yue smiled: "It's nothing, it's just that this will overlaps with your previous thoughts." ”
Qingfeng tilted his head to look at Xuan Yue and asked, "Overlap?"
Xuan Yue: "Yes, because of the Nine Princesses' competition to recruit guards, several neighboring countries have also sent missions, but it is for the purpose of harmony, although this is not in line with Your Majesty's intentions, but these countries have not been very stable in recent years, so Your Majesty means to let our martial arts academy send people to participate in the competition, and strive to just select guards, and not let the princess marry far away." ”
Qingfeng Lan nodded, but there was some anger in his heart, are these nearby countries looking for someone to knock and knock? Why do you dare to think about anything?
After Xuan Yue finished speaking, she paused and said: "I still don't know, why does the princess have to recruit a guard in a martial arts competition? There are countless strong people in the imperial city, and the martial arts academy can train several strong people every year, and the child next to her doesn't seem to be a good stubble, why bother so much effort to find someone to be a guard among the people? I really can't figure it out, does this nine princesses have a husband in the people? This is to justifiably take the husband to his side?"
Qingfeng Lan was standing on the side and was thinking about how to knock on the surrounding countries, when he was suddenly spurted out by Xuan Yue, a mouthful of old blood spurted out, and he coughed wildly while holding on to the pillar.
Xuanyue was also frightened by Qingfeng Lan, and hurriedly stepped forward to pat her back.
Qingfenglan, who had finally eased up, looked at Xuanyue and asked, "Don't you all shy away from the affairs of the royal family?"
Xuan Yue thought for a moment and said, "This is our house, and there is no one around here, don't worry." ”
Qingfeng swallowed his saliva and said: "This may not be the request of the Ninth Princess, in case it is Your Majesty's intentions, it is just under the banner of the Ninth Princess." ”
After hearing Qingfeng Lan's explanation, Xuan Yue nodded slowly and said: "That's right, in case it is His Majesty's illegitimate son, now this competition is just right for him to enter the palace, and then he can stay by the side of the Ninth Princess and take care of the Ninth Princess, which is also a possibility." ”
Qingfeng Lan knew that this guy just had a gossip heart, and it was impossible to be corrected, so he didn't say any more.
After a while, Qingfeng Lan stopped coughing and asked, "When is the martial arts competition?" I heard you say that it was the Ninth Princess who said to stop, but now that she has joined the mission of another country, there should be some changes in the rules." ”
Xuan Yue nodded: "Well, yes, the rules have changed now, and the final champion is determined by the audition, the preliminary examination, the re-examination, and the written examination." ”
Qingfeng opened his mouth and looked at Xuan Yue and asked, "Why is there a written test?
Xuan Yue: "There is no way to do this, the few countries that came this time are all barbarians in the north, and their personal combat effectiveness is obviously much stronger than that of the people in the imperial capital, but the written test is not so good, so Your Majesty is also to brush a few more people from the mission." ”
Qingfeng Lan nodded suddenly in understanding, but immediately frowned into a pimple.
After seeing Qingfenglan's expression, Xuanyue asked cautiously, "You can't be sure about the written test, right?" ”
Qingfeng sighed and hummed quietly.
Xuan Yue stood aside and looked at Qingfeng Lan without being mistaken: "No, you are so powerful, why are you not sure about the written test?"
Qingfeng Lan said sadly: "I have followed my sister and master since I was a child, although my combat power is good, but I have not gone to school much, I have not studied systematically at all, and now I am also taught by my sister to read and break, I don't know if she taught me correctly, so when do you think I have written?"
Xuanyue looked at Qingfeng Lan embarrassedly, and Qingfeng Lan had no love on her face.
The two of you look at me, I look at you, and neither of them speaks.
After a while, Qingfeng suddenly asked, "What are the rules of the competition?"
Xuan Yue shook her head and said: "No, the audition will be conducted first, only two hundred people can enter the preliminary examination, and the preliminary examination will be conducted in two rounds, the first round of two hundred into one hundred, the second round of one hundred into fifty, and then the remaining fifty people will take the retest, and the requirements for the retest will be more complicated, rotation and challenge." ”
Qingfenglan: "Rotation and challenges?"
Xuan Yue nodded and continued to explain: "The rotation is actually very simple, it will be divided into five groups at that time, and everyone in each group will have to play nine games, and the person with the most wins in each group will enter the candidates. Those with fewer wins can challenge the other forty-nine people, and after the time is over, the five people with the most wins will be selected to enter the written test. ”
Qingfeng Lan thought for a moment and asked, "That originally won nine games, and the people behind were frantically challenging each other, so what is going on?"
Xuan Yue shook her head and said: "I don't know about this, Chen Junyi also asked this question this morning, but President Chen said that there are too many ants, and they can also bite elephants to death." ”
Qingfeng Lan thought for a moment and suddenly smiled and said, "Have you ever heard of Wen Wu first, Wu Wu second?"
Xuan Yue nodded: "Of course I heard it." ”
Qingfeng grinned at the corner of his mouth: "There are too many ants, and they can bite the elephant to death, but can there be more ants that can bite the god of death?"
Xuanyue thought for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?"
Qingfeng stretched his waist: "I know how to do the written test, so I'll let you see what it means to be a god." ”
Xuanyue looked at Qingfenglan's back, and couldn't understand what he was thinking at all, and she didn't understand what Qingfenglan was talking about, what kind of god.
Now that he has made up his mind, Qingfeng Lan happily went shopping on the street.
Xuan Yue followed Qingfeng Lan and asked, "Are you here to buy something?"
Qingfeng Lan picked up a kite on the side of the road and looked at it: "I just want to buy something that looks hard and soft when pinched." ”
Xuan Yue thought for a moment and asked, "What are you buying this kind of thing for?"
Qingfeng took a deep breath: "Of course, I went to see President Chen, after all, he was the one who saved our lives, of course we can't go empty-handed." ”
Xuan Yue thought for a while and almost burst into laughter, and after stabilizing her mood, she said: "Then let's go buy some frozen food, and when we get to Chief Chen's house, it will almost melt away, it looks the outside, but it is very easy to crush." ”
Qingfeng nodded in affirmation.
Then the two of them looked for frozen food on the street, and finally stopped at the door of a tofu shop, and the two looked at each other and asked at the same time, "Shopkeeper, do you have frozen tofu here?"
The shopkeeper looked up at the two people, and hurriedly took out a wooden box from the cabinet, opened the wooden box and saw that there was a large ice cube inside, and a piece of tofu could be seen frozen in the middle of the ice cube, Qingfeng smiled: "Shopkeeper, I bought it, Xuanyue, pay." ”
Xuanyue paid the money quickly, picked up the wooden box and followed behind Qingfenglan.
After walking for a while, Qingfeng turned around and asked, "Look at what tofu looks like now?"
Xuan Yue opened the box and took a look: "Now a small piece of tofu has been revealed." ”
Qingfeng Lan nodded and glanced at the sun in the sky, "Let's go, it's time to go to Chief Chen's house for dinner." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and walked towards Chen Hong's house.
As soon as the two of them walked to the door of Chen's mansion, they saw Chen Junyi about to go out.
Chen Junyi saw Qingfeng Lan and Xuanyue in the distance, she couldn't believe it, rubbed her eyes and looked at it again, and after confirming that it was the two of them, she hurriedly greeted them.
Approaching Qingfenglan, he asked, "Are you going out?"
Chen Junyi: "No, I just came out for a stroll." ”
Qingfeng Lan and Xuan Yue glanced at each other and asked, "Is your family so small? Do you still want to come out for a walk? If it's too small, my family has a spare room, you can move over." ”
When Chen Junyi heard that she could move over, she asked excitedly, "Really, can you really move over?"
Qingfeng smiled generously: "That's a must, you can move here whenever you want, and you are welcome at any time." ”
Chen Junyi immediately blossomed, but after a while, she pouted: "But my father won't let me go to live with you, so I'll just live at home." Qingfeng smiled and said, "It's okay, when you are free, come and play at any time, we are all welcome." ”
Chen Junyi smiled even more happily. Then he looked up and asked, "Where are you going?"
Qingfenglan: "Didn't you say that you were too tired yesterday, today we will prepare a generous gift, thank Lord Chen for his life-saving grace, and then come to have a meal." ”
When Chen Junyi heard that he was here to eat, he hurriedly invited him home, for fear that the breeze would leave.
Qingfeng followed Chen Junyi to the mansion, and as soon as she came in, she saw Zhou Nianning sitting in the courtyard enjoying the shade.
Hearing Chen Junyi's voice from a distance, Zhou Nianning closed her eyes and said, "Junyi, didn't you go to Qingfeng's house, why did you come back so soon?"
Chen Junyi quietly glanced at Qingfeng Lan behind her, and saw that Qingfeng Lan was talking to Xuanyue, patted her chest with confidence and shouted loudly: "Mother, Qingfeng Lan and Xuanyue are here to eat." ”
Zhou Nianning bounced up directly from the recliner after hearing Qingfenglan's name, and saw that Qingfenglan didn't notice his side, so he quickly covered his mouth and whispered to Chen Junyi: "I shouldn't have heard it." ”
Chen Junyi shook her head with a helpless expression.
Zhou Nianning hurriedly diverted the topic: "Qingfeng, why are you here?"
Qingfeng Lan turned his head to look at Zhou Nianning and said with a smile: "Isn't this missing you? I was so tired when I came back yesterday, I came to the door today with a generous gift to thank Mr. Chen, and I came to eat by the way." ”
Zhou Nianning smiled: "Come on, and bring gifts?
Qingfeng hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, I have always regarded you as a relative, if it weren't for Chief Chen this time, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to come back, this kind of life-saving grace, I must thank you again." ”
Zhou Nianning said with a smile: "Isn't it right for him to save you? In the future, in the martial arts academy, if someone bullies you, you tell me, and I will let her father come to you to teach him a lesson." ”
Qingfeng almost jumped up happily, and then asked, "Where's Chief Chen, haven't you come back yet?"
Zhou Nianning: "He's coming back soon, and after being away for so many days, he has some things to deal with." ”
