The affection of the county lord of Kiki for him is self-evident, and the sentence "How good would it be if you were the prince of the Buddha" is not clear enough? The reason why she was so resistant to marrying the prince of Buddha this time must be because she had him in her heart.

Anyway, he had to help her this time. Although it will be difficult, he can't shirk the affection of Lord Qiqi for him. After making up his mind, Shen Tianye returned to the room, but found that Honglian was still there, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Why didn't you go back with them?" ”

Honglian bowed and saluted: "The county lord has promised the red lotus to the son, and the red lotus will be the child's person in the future." Childe didn't leave, and Red Lotus naturally couldn't go. ”

"Uh......" Shen Tianye was a little confused: "When did the county lord promise you to me?" ”

Honglian said: "Before the prince came here, the county lord had already decided. ”

Shen Tianye waved his hand and said, "I'm used to being free and comfortable alone, and I don't need anyone to serve, so you can go back." As soon as the words were finished, Honglian knelt on the ground and said: "Honglian has been helpless since she was a child, if Gongzi doesn't want Honglian, Honglian will only live on the streets and fend for herself, please have mercy on Gongzi, don't drive Honglian away." ”

Shen Tianye stepped forward to help her up and said, "You get up first." It's not that I don't accept you, it's that I'm really inconvenienced. Okay, you stay for the time being today, and take me to the palace tomorrow to find Lord Qiqi. I'll make it clear to her, and you'll follow her in the future. ”

Honglian bowed her head and was silent. However, I heard that Shen Tianye would not drive her away for the time being, so he took advantage of the situation.

On the second day, Honglian took Shen Tianye to the Yongwang Mansion of the Guirenfang. Like Princess Xiangxiang's birthday last time, this time Princess Qiqi's birthday is also full of guests and lively. When Shen Tianye and the others arrived, there was already a lot of traffic in front of King Yong's Mansion, and the street in front of them was almost blocked.

When the two came to the gate of the palace, Shen Tianye selected a pair of necklaces and a low-level magic weapon to offer, which was regarded as a congratulatory gift given when they entered the door. Unexpectedly, when the butler who welcomed the guests saw that he didn't have an invitation, he immediately stopped him and said, "I'm sorry for this prince, this time the palace is holding a private banquet, if the prince has no invitation, please stop." ”

Shen Tianye didn't expect this to happen, and said, "It was your county lord who invited me here." ”

The housekeeper said: "If the county lord invites, there will definitely be an invitation post." ”

Shen Tianye said depressedly: "I was in a hurry yesterday, she didn't give it to me." ”

Although the butler was still smiling, his face was a little cold, obviously not believing his words. At this time, Honglian stepped forward and said: "Steward Li, this Shen Gongzi is indeed a guest invited by the county lord, he is the champion of the Imperial Young Disciple Selection Contest last year, and he is now a disciple of the Baiyun Guan Thunder King Palace, and he is a close friend of our county lord. Yesterday, the county lord specially asked Honglian to go to Baiyun Temple to invite Shen Gongzi over, Steward Li, please get out of the way, don't offend the distinguished guests. ”

Steward Li saw that it was Honglian, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Shen Gongzi, there are many offenses below, please forgive me, please come in." ”

Shen Tianye secretly praised the red lotus for being alert in his heart, the expression on his face remained unchanged, and he entered the palace with the red lotus proudly. At this time, the banquet should not have started yet, Shen Tianye was not familiar with the Yongwang Mansion, so he asked where the county lord of Red Lotus Qiqi lived?

Honglian said: "Miss lives in the West Chamber, please come with me." ”

"Okay."

The scale of Yongwang's Mansion is not small, Shen Tianye followed the red lotus around, and finally walked to the West Chamber, but he didn't want to meet him head-on, but he happened to bump into Li Zhou and his wife coming out of the West Chamber.

When Li Zhou saw Shen Tianye, his face suddenly sank, and he shouted, "Why are you here?" ”

Shen Tianye couldn't dodge, so he had to bow his hand and say, "The kid is here to celebrate the county lord's birthday." ”

Li Zhou said coldly: "You are not welcome here. Come on, blast this person out of here. ”

Two minutes later, Shen Tianye and Red Lotus were blasted out of the gate by the people of the palace. Steward Li looked at Honglian angrily and said, "It turns out that he is not a guest invited by the palace, and you actually deceived me, it is really unreasonable." ”

Red Lotus said: "Red Lotus is also for the county lord, don't blame Steward Li." I wonder how the county lord is doing now? ”

Steward Li said: "Don't worry, with the eldest princess here, the county lord will be fine." Okay, you two go quickly, don't embarrass the old man. ”

The two of them reluctantly walked aside, and Honglian said worriedly: "I didn't expect to meet the little prince, and I was blasted out without even seeing the face of the young lady, how is this good?" ”

Shen Tianye was also depressed in his heart, but his expression was quite calm, and he said, "It's okay, it's just that we were kicked out, let's find a way to go in again." Now that Steward Li has recognized the two of us, I am afraid that it is impossible to get through the customs like before, but there are other entrances to the palace? ”

Honglian said: "There is a back door in the backyard of the palace, but it is generally not open there. ”

Shen Tianye said: "Let's go over and take a look." ”

The two turned to the back of the palace and saw that the back door was closed. Shen Tianye Lingzhi poked out and checked it, and found that there was actually a formation at the back door of the palace, whether it was forcibly broken or sneaked in, it would be immediately detected. Fortunately, this formation is not complicated, and it is not difficult to break it, but it will take a long time.

Shen Tianye said: "You are here to help me get the upper hand, I'll take a look." ”

Shen Tianye learned a lot of formation knowledge during this time, and the level of formation has increased. The formation set up by the Yongwang Mansion at the back door is not profound. It took Shen Tianye more than an hour to finally break it, and then, beckoning Red Lotus to sneak in.

After entering through the back door, you will cross a courtyard wall and arrive at the back garden of the palace. After passing through the back garden, you will arrive at the inner house of the palace, which is the residence of the ladies of the palace.

The two slipped in like thieves, and there were many formation traps along the way, but fortunately, Shen Tianye was alert and avoided them one by one. Finally entered the West Chamber again, this time Shen Tianye didn't dare to be careless, and after asking the room where the Red Lotus Qiqi Lord was located, he immediately opened the charm cloak and sneaked over. Red Lotus was arranged by him to hide in a rockery.

Shen Tianye cautiously came to the door of the county lord of Qiqi, and without knocking on the door, the secret luck mana secretly unloaded the room bolt, and then pushed the door open and entered in a flash. Because of the use of mana, the effect of the phantom cloak disappeared immediately, but fortunately he had entered the room of the county lord of Kiki, and it didn't matter if he was hidden or not. It's just that as soon as Shen Tianye's figure entered, he immediately heard a coquettish reprimand: "What person? ”

Shen Tianye hurriedly said, "It's me." Belch...... How are you? ”

I saw a stunning woman in white in the room jumping up from the bed, but what was the lord of Qiqi, it was Princess Xiangxiang, who had not been seen for more than half a year.

"Brother Shen." Princess Xiangxiang was also shocked: "Why are you ......?"

Shen Tianye said with some embarrassment: "Isn't this Qiqi's room?" Why are you here? ”

Princess Xiangxiang smiled gently and said: "This is indeed Qiqi's room, but her coming-of-age ceremony has ended, as the protagonist of today, now with King Yong and others in the hall banquet, I stayed there a little boring, so I went back to her room alone to rest for a while." When did Brother Shen come over, why didn't he come in and say hello, but acted like a thief? ”

Kiki's bar mitzvah is over, so soon! I want to come in openly, but the little prince Li Zhou doesn't allow it! Shen Tianye said in his heart, but he said: "Oh, I just came, and I didn't see Qiqi outside, so I came here to find her, but I didn't want to meet you, the princess." I haven't seen you for a long time, but everything is fine with the princess. Hey, you've advanced to the middle of the Yuan Infant Pull! ”

Princess Xiangxiang said: "It's just a fluke breakthrough." In fact, Xiangxiang was also forced to be helpless, so don't talk about it. How is Brother Shen doing, how is he doing in the Thunder King Palace? ”

Shen Tianye knew what she was talking about, it seemed that Lord Qiqi said that she had taken the risk of stimulating the emperor's bloodline in order to refuse to marry into the Buddha Kingdom, otherwise, she would not have been able to break through to the middle stage of the Yuan Infant so quickly.

Princess Xiangxiang, who was promoted to the middle stage of the Yuan Infant, is more elegant and refined than before, and she looks more confident and calm in her gestures, dressed in white and better than snow, and her style and temperament are better than in the past, at first glance, she is really charming. Shen Tianye secretly praised in his heart, and replied, "I'm fine." Thank you princess for your concern. ”

Princess Xiangxiang said with a blank face: "Why do you call me princess again?" Didn't you see each other for months, and Brother Shen became estranged from Xiangxiang again? ”

Shen Tianye's heart was indeed rusty, but he naturally couldn't say this, and said: "Although Tianye knows the princess, he is just a grass people, how dare he be disrespectful when he sees the princess?" ”

Princess Xiangxiang sighed and said, "Didn't Brother Shen say that he regarded Xiangxiang as a friend before?" But I haven't seen each other for months, so why did I see it like this? ”

Shen Tianye said: "Friends also have to pay attention to etiquette. Xiangxiang is the princess's maiden name, how dare Tianye trespass? ”

Princess Xiangxiang said: "That being the case, then why did you call your cousin Qiqi just now, but you called me a princess?" Aren't you afraid of trespassing by calling your cousin's maiden name? ”

Shen Tianye was speechless.

Princess Xiangxiang sighed lonely and said, "I thought that Brother Shen really regarded me as a friend, but I didn't expect it to ......"

Shen Tianye hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, can't I be wrong?" If I keep going any further, I feel like I'm going to be a sinner for the ages. ”

Princess Xiangxiang smiled, the loneliness on her face suddenly disappeared, and she was beautiful for a while: "It was Brother Shen's fault." She invited Shen Tianye to sit down with her and said, "I don't know what Brother Shen is looking for Qiqi?" ”

Shen Tianye said: "I heard that the royal family intends to marry the Buddha Kingdom and let Qiqi marry a prince of the Buddha Kingdom, and the reason why the prince held a coming-of-age ceremony for Qiqi today is to announce this matter in public." I wonder if it's true? ”

Hearing that this was the case, Princess Xiangxiang sighed gloomily and said, "It's true." Speaking of which, I hurt her. Princess Xiangxiang glanced at Shen Tianye as she spoke, and said, "Presumably Brother Shen has also heard that the royal family originally wanted to marry me to the Buddha Kingdom, but I desperately refused, and finally asked the emperor to come forward, so I changed it to Qiqi." ”

Shen Tianye said: "Since the Great Emperor has already come forward once, why don't you just refuse again?" ”
