Chapter 51: Door-to-door proposal
Bai Li Xuan's eyes flashed lightly, the corners of his lips were slightly hooked, and he suddenly took a step and walked towards her.
"General Duan, you are too unrighteous, your girl has such ability, if you didn't say it earlier, I will be scared." After the Cloud City Lord came back to his senses, he also followed behind Baili Xuan again and again, but when he looked at Duan Zhengnan with a pair of eyes, there were too many complications.
"I really don't know." Duan Zhengnan was shocked and innocent, he really didn't know that Wan'er had such a ability.
"Hasn't your girl been in bad health since she was a child? When did you practice such skills? I am afraid that few people in the world can do this kind of ability. Yun Cheng saw Duan Zhengnan's expression in surprise, not like a lie, and frowned slightly.
"To say, this throwing knife doesn't need any strength, mainly the control of wrist strength, even if the late child is not in good health, you can still practice, so I remember, when the late child was young, I liked to play with flying knives, and then I was afraid of hurting her, she was not allowed to touch it, maybe she practiced secretly." Duan Zhengnan was stunned and suddenly changed his words.
Bai Li Xuan, who was walking in front, listened to General Duan's words, and his brows moved slightly.
"If it's really a tiger father and no dog girl, this girl is really amazing." The Lord of Cloud City is a smart person, so he doesn't delve into it, anyway, this thing is a good thing, not a bad thing, no matter how the girl is trained, this kind of ability is not awe-inspiring.
"Girls, sooner or later they have to get married, and these things that use knives and guns are not needed." General Duan smiled modestly, but there was obviously a bit of pride in that smile.
His old age did make him proud.
"Yes, sooner or later, Wan'er is going to get married, I heard that the Zhuo family has withdrawn, what do you think of my family's Qing'er? Qing'er is also something you watched grow up, and you understand this child's temperament and temperament. "The Cloud City Lord is a straightforward person, he has long seen that his son likes Duan Qingwan, and because of what happened just now, he is also satisfied with Duan Qingwan, so he directly mentioned the family matter to General Duan.
With Duan Qingwan's ability, this courage is incomparable to ordinary people, Qing'er can marry such a daughter-in-law, that is his blessing.
With such a virtuous helper, it will definitely be of great help to Qing'er.
As for Duan Qingwan's identity in the Duan family, he doesn't mind, the most important thing for a person is his ability, he was originally from a poor family, and he was a beggar when he was young.
What's more, after this competition, if Old Madam Lin really went to apologize to Duan Qingwan's mother in person, it would make Meng Yanlan's identity different.
"Ahem." Bai Li Xuan, who was walking in front, coughed coldly, making General Duan, who was just about to speak, stop.
Regardless of whether His Highness's cough just now was unintentional or deliberate, the two of them didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, just for a while, they were too shocked, too excited, and a little forgetful.
In the courtyard, everyone had already come back to their senses, but no one spoke, and they didn't know what to say for a while, and they didn't know what words could describe their mood at this moment.
Duan Qingwan looked sideways slightly, and saw Bai Li Xuan who was walking towards her, she knew that Bai Li Xuan was in Yun Mansion, and before deciding to compete, she also thought about it seriously, after all, it was really difficult to be able to shock the audience in an instant, and not let Bai Li Xuan directly grab her handle.
Throwing a flying knife is a technical job, you don't need any physical work, practice makes perfect, and with more practice, you can naturally reach the level of precision.
So, even if he doubted it, when the time came, she would be able to explain the past.
However, Bai Li Xuan walked over at this moment, glanced at her, then turned his gaze away, and looked at Yun Zhiqing who was still fixed on the disc with a pair of eyes, the corners of his lips moved slightly, and he slowly spoke, "Are the results of the competition out?" ”
As soon as he said this, Duan Qingwan naturally knew that he must have come early in the morning, but he was afraid that he had clearly seen all the processes, and there were too many people just now, and she had been preparing for the competition, so she didn't find him.
When everyone saw His Royal Highness personally asking, they were even more stunned, and they all thought a little more in their hearts, but as far as the competition just now is concerned, as long as those with long eyes and not those with a clear conscience will choose to win lightly.
Lin Zhu's face was very ugly at the moment, she never thought that it would be such a result, how could she never expect Duan Qingwan to have such a ability?
Wasn't Duan Qingwan sick and weak since he was a child? How can you practice flying knives, and practice so well?
Lin Zhu knew that this time, she lost, completely lost, no matter how good her dancing was, it was never as shocking as Duan Qingwan's performance at this moment, her dancing was just a woman's pleasing talent, and the most she got was only the envy of women and the appreciation of men.
However, Duan Qingwan's real ability, what Duan Qingwan did just now, I am afraid that no one in the field will be able to do it, which will definitely make those men admire and shock.
Lin Zhu even thought at this moment that if Duan Qingwan wanted to be unfavorable to her, just a slight movement of her wrist and a flying knife might kill her.
Of course, at this moment, I am afraid that not only Lin Zhu alone, but also the few young ladies who said Duan Qingwan just now, originally thought that what happened on the last cruise was the master of Duan Qingwan for Duan Qingwan, if there was no His Highness, Duan Qingwan didn't know what a wolf would be.
It's just that today, it seems that even if there is no His Highness that day, they are only afraid that they will not be Duan Qingwan's opponents, it seems that it is best to be careful in the future, and they will not provoke Duan Qingwan again.
Duan Qingwan wanted such an effect, she naturally wouldn't be afraid of them, but she really hated this kind of troublesome thing.
"I excerpt Miss Duan, Miss Duan's performance just now is really amazing, I have never seen such a wonderful and shocking performance when I am so old." Suddenly, someone shouted.
"I'm also an excerpt miss..."
"I'm also an excerpt miss..."
Immediately, everyone echoed, and the cries became louder and louder.
In the end, except for Lin Zhu and Lin Zhu's girl, everyone present chosen
's girl, all of them chose a light night.
"Wan'er, you won, you won, Wan'er, you're so amazing, I really didn't expect you to be so powerful, you won so beautifully......" Yun Zhiqing, who got off the disc, ran to Duan Qingwan with an excited face, shouted excitedly, and as he spoke, he subconsciously reached out to pull Duan Qingwan's hand.
Duan Qingwan's eyes also looked slightly in the direction of Baili Xuan, her astonishing behavior would definitely make him suspicious, so she was secretly thinking about it at the moment, if he wanted to ask, how would she answer.
In addition, her body was already weak now, and she was still a little tired from throwing away the flying knife just now, so for a while, she couldn't avoid Yun Zhiqing.
So, Yun Zhiqing took her hand.
On her side, Bai Li Xuan's eyes turned coldly, staring at Duan Qingwan's hand that was being pulled by Yun Zhiqing, and for a while, the ice and fire in those eyes melted, as if they were going to freeze Yun Zhiqing's hand and then turn it into ashes.
Damn, this kid dared to take her hand.
He doesn't want these hands, does he?!
"What? Haven't had enough? Bai Li Xuan exhaled secretly, and a pair of eyes finally left Yun Zhiqing's hand holding Duan Qingwan, turned to Duan Qingwan, and covered up the danger of ice and fire in his eyes, but there was still a bit of danger in his voice.
Obviously, he said this to Duan Qingwan.
"Evening, I just happened to be going back, so you can go back with you." Duan Zhengnan moved forward again and again, the limelight was too big tonight, and he felt that it was better to take Duan Qingwan away.
"Yes, okay." Duan Qingwan responded softly, avoiding Yun Zhiqing's hand without a trace.
"Miss Lin, you should remember our bet." Duan Qingwan turned to Lin Zhu and smiled lightly, since he had said it before the competition, this bet would definitely be cashed out.
Lin Zhu's already extremely ugly face was even more gloomy, but it was indeed she who promised it just now, and now in front of everyone, she naturally didn't regret it, but let her grandmother apologize to Duan Qingwan's mother, the woman who had no name and no share, how could this be?
"You're still afraid that she won't remember? Is your throwing knife a fake? Bai Lixuan glanced at her slightly, and spoke again, the words sounded strange.
When everyone heard His Highness's words, they only thought that he was suing Duan Qingwan, if Lin Zhu didn't fulfill her promise, she could go directly to shoot the flying knife.
However, Duan Qingwan listened to it in his ears, but it was not like that at all, and there was something in this person's obvious words.
"Miss Lin San, I will give you three days, and within three days, I hope you can fulfill your promise as we agreed before." Duan Qingwan could only ignore him at this moment and looked at Lin Zhu, there was obviously a bit of threatening courage in his light voice, which was impossible to ignore.
Lin Zhu's body stiffened, and the corners of his lips moved slightly, but he couldn't say a word after all.
As soon as Duan Qingwan's words fell, Bai Lixuan had already taken a quick step and walked out, Duan Qingwan secretly exhaled, followed him, and walked out.
It can be seen that this man is in a bad mood at the moment, and he is obviously angry, so next, she should be careful.
Out of the Yun Mansion, his carriage was parked outside the mansion, and it was obvious that his father came in a carriage with him just now, and it was Yun Yan who personally went to the mansion to pick her up, and she came in the Yun family's carriage.
Now, if you want to go back, you can only ride in a carriage with him, but fortunately, my father is still here.
"The throwing knife is a good practice." On the carriage, Baili Xuan looked at Duan Qingwan and suddenly spoke.
Duan Qingwan was slightly stunned, she thought he would ask, but she didn't expect that he would be in front of his father.
However, after understanding, the corners of her lips couldn't help twitching, he was afraid that he was deliberately asking in front of his father, after all, her father was here, and she couldn't talk and lie all over the world.
"Yes." Duan Qingwan lowered his eyes and whispered softly, just a simple thanks, and there was no follow-up.
"It's not easy to practice to this level." Bai Li Xuan naturally wouldn't just let her go, looking at her eyes narrowed slightly, faintly with a little more dangerous aura.
Duan Zhengnan obviously didn't expect that Bai Li Xuan would suddenly ask this question, and he asked such a tight question step by step, it stands to reason that His Royal Highness would not pay attention to this kind of thing.
"Well, if you practice, you will naturally be accurate." Although her father was also here at the moment, Duan Qingwan still said according to what she had thought before, and this time, her words paused, and she added again, "Thank you, Your Highness, for the compliment." ”
Bai Lixuan glanced at her slightly, this woman would really put gold on her face, when did he praise her? She clearly wanted to deliberately change the subject.
"Practiced? How long did it take to reach this level? Bai Li Xuan naturally didn't believe what she said, and continued to ask.
"I've been practicing since I was a child, and when I was bored, I kept playing this, and I liked it while playing, and then I kept practicing, but fortunately, I didn't need much strength in this, my body was weak, and it didn't affect it, but I didn't expect that my level was already so high, and today is a super level performance." Duan Qingwan replied without changing his face, anyway, he couldn't investigate this matter anyway, and at the moment his father was here, he didn't dare to mess around.
"If you have been practicing since you were a child, you can practice like this?" Bai Li Xuan looked at her straightforward appearance, and his heart was angry.
"Of course, otherwise His Highness can try it from Xiaolian." Duan Qingwan raised his head, looked at him, and suddenly smiled, the smile was extraordinarily bright and innocent.
Duan Zhengnan secretly gasped, what did this girl say, His Royal Highness is so old now, how can she try to practice again since childhood.
However, why does His Highness have to hold on to this matter?
Although he also has too much consternation and too many doubts in his heart, he believes what Wan'er says now, although Wan'er is not in good health, he is very smart, if he really only practiced this since he was a child, he would have practiced like this
, it's not surprising to practice at such a level.
As long as a person is attentive enough, there is nothing that cannot be done.
But why doesn't His Highness believe in Wan'er so much?
"Your Royal Highness, Wan'er did like to play with flying knives when she was a child, although the minister stopped her clearly, she must have practiced secretly in private, Wan'er is stubborn, and she will not give up lightly if she recognizes the right things, so although this thing is shocking today, the minister believes it." Duan Zhengnan thought about it, and finally couldn't help but say that his own daughter, he had to protect himself.
"Well, well, Daddy is right." When Duan Qingwan heard Duan Zhengnan's words, he was overjoyed, and nodded again and again, his father cooperated really well this time.
However, she didn't expect that the real Duan Qingwan also liked to play with flying knives before, and it seemed that God really helped her.
Bai Li Xuan saw the joy on her face, her face sank obviously, but the corners of her lips hooked up a chuckle, did she think she would be able to hide like this?
In the General's Palace.
"Queen Mother, I found the Jade Silver Spirit Fox outside the city, Aunt Yingqiu is guarding it, I don't dare to act rashly, let my subordinates report to the Queen Mother." A guard quickly reported forward, with a slight eagerness on his face.
"Found out?!" Qin Ke'er was overjoyed, and quickly stood up, she had been chasing the jade silver spirit fox for a long time, because the blood of the spirit fox was helpful to her mother's body, and the master said that if her mother drank the blood of the spirit fox, she could ensure that the poison in her body would never be released in the future.
All she had to do was catch the spirit fox and let it bleed.
This time, she also chased here because of chasing the jade silver spirit fox, and just in time to receive Xuan'er's urgent letter and asked her to come to the General's Mansion, she came by the way, but Xuan'er didn't know where to go, so she didn't come back for half a day.
The matter of the spirit fox can not be delayed, in case it is allowed to run away again, it will be more difficult to find it next time, so it is better to catch the spirit fox first.
"Let's go." Qin Ke'er thought so, but in fact, he didn't have too much delay, and he had already walked out.
"Mother, you're just leaving?" Baili Rui's eyes flashed, he was still waiting to see the excitement, this big brother hasn't come back yet, why did his mother leave?
"By the way, you don't have anything to do anyway, you also go with me to catch the spirit fox." As soon as Bai Li Rui opened his mouth at this moment, Qin Ke'er seemed to remember him.
Bai Li Rui was directly dumbfounded, he knew that he wouldn't speak, but, seriously, he hasn't been with his mother for a long time, taking advantage of this opportunity, it's not bad to accompany his mother, and the most important thing is that maybe he can take this opportunity to get rid of Li Man.
"Li Man, you should come along." It's just that Bai Li Rui didn't have time to be happy, but Qin Ke'er added another sentence, and suddenly, Bai Li Rui's face collapsed directly.
It's just that he can't ignore his mother's words, so he can only follow Qin Ke'er out of the General's Mansion together.
Not long after Qin Ke'er's carriage left, Baili Xuan's carriage also arrived at the General's Mansion and stopped.
Bai Li Xuan learned that his mother had left, his brows furrowed slightly, he originally asked his mother to come to the General's Mansion just to introduce Duan Qingwan to his mother, because he felt that Duan Qingwan had some unsolvable mysteries on his body, and he felt that these mysteries might be solved, so he specially wrote a letter to ask his mother to come over.
I didn't expect it, but such a thing happened temporarily and I missed it.
"I didn't expect it to be so powerful." After Duan Qingwan left, everyone dispersed, but Yun Yan still couldn't come back to her senses.
"yes, I didn't expect that." Yun Zhiqing still had a little regret on his face at the moment, but he was a little more relieved or proud.
"Qing'er, do you like that girl from the Duan family?" The Cloud City Lord looked at his son's appearance, the corners of his eyebrows were slightly raised, and this kid's appearance was too obvious.
"Father, me? I like to be late, and I don't marry later in this life, and I hope my father can be fulfilled. Yun Zhiqing exhaled secretly, suddenly turned to the Cloud City Lord, and said with a solemn face.
"Ah, whose young lady did my son fall in love with, he didn't marry her!" Mrs. Duan, who happened to return home, was surprised and delighted when she heard her son's words, in the past few years, she has broken her heart for her son's marriage, but unfortunately her son can't look down on any of them.
Today, her son finally has someone he likes, can she not be happy?
"It's the girl of the Duan family." The Cloud City Lord looked at his beloved wife and smiled softly.
"Duan Xinrou?" Mrs. Yun frowned slightly, and her expression was a little complicated for a while, "I don't think Duan Xinrou is suitable for Qing'er." ”
"It's not Duan Xinrou, it's a late child, a late child who only returned to the General's Mansion two years ago." The Cloud City Lord explained again and again.
"Mother, I just like Wan'er, no matter what Wan'er is, I just like her." Yun Zhiqing was afraid that his mother would oppose because of Duan Qingwan's identity, and his expression was obviously a little more nervous.
"Late? I haven't seen that girl, but I've heard something about her in the past few days. Mrs. Yun seemed to be secretly relieved, seeing her son's nervous appearance, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and there was a slight smile on her face, "Look at why are you nervous like this, is your mother the kind of unreasonable person?" As long as you like it, as long as the girl is good, my mother will not object. ”
"Really, thank you." Yun Zhiqing's hanging was finally put down.
"However, didn't Duan Qingwan already make a marriage?" Mrs. Yun suddenly remembered this, and her brows furrowed slightly.
"Madam is talking about the Zhuo family, the Zhuo family has already withdrawn." Seeing that his wife also agreed, the Lord of Cloud City also smiled, the girl in the evening, he really liked it, and today's incident alone was enough to make him look at it differently.
"It's not that last time on the cruise ship, His Royal Highness sent more than 20 young ladies to the government for her, so did His Highness treat her?" After all, Mrs. Yun is a woman, and she is more careful, and that matter has been stirred up, and it is on the Yun family's cruise ship, so she naturally knows.
"Your Highness?" The Cloud City Lord was slightly stunned, and then waved his hand again and again, "That's impossible, Your Highness and the ancient city."
The marriage between His Royal Highness and the daughter of the ancient city lord has been decided a long time ago, just wait for Miss Gu to get married when she reaches the age of eighteen, and the person His Royal Highness wants to marry is Miss Gu, and Miss Gu is the future queen. ”
The Cloud City Lord's words paused slightly, and he added again, "General Duan loves his daughter like his life, and he will never let Wan'er marry into the royal family, and she is destined not to be the queen, our Qing'er is different, Qing'er is the same as me, once it is identified, it will be a lifelong thing, this, General Duan also understands in his heart, in short, I am very satisfied with that girl, it is better for you to pick a good day to go to the door to propose." ”
"Master, there's no need to be in such a hurry, right?" Mrs. Yun looked at her husband and was stunned, this family affair is a joke, how can she be in such a hurry?
"Madam, don't you know, that girl is really powerful, you are not at home today, but you missed a wonderful show......" The Lord of Cloud City excitedly told Mrs. Yun about today's events.
"Is it really that powerful?" Madame Yun listened, and the expression on her face kept changing.
"Of course it's true, I think after today's incident, there will definitely be many people who are in a hurry to come to the door to propose, so we have to hurry." The Cloud City Lord seemed to be in a more anxious hurry than Yun Zhiqing at the moment.
"Okay, then I'll go tomorrow." Mrs. Yun suddenly clapped her hands, and made up her mind directly, Mrs. Yun was originally born in the rivers and lakes, and her personality was already straightforward, listening to her husband talk about Duan Qingwan's affairs today, it was her hobby to play with knives and guns, which was in line with her love.
"Madam, you don't have to be in such a hurry, do you?" When the Cloud City Lord heard her say that she would go tomorrow, he was stunned, could this be too fast.
"This kind of thing, the sooner the better, what if it's too late and someone preempts it?" What Mrs. Yun said was called a righteous one.
"Well, it's okay, then tomorrow we have prepared a generous gift, and I will accompany you to the General's Mansion to propose marriage, in fact, I mentioned this matter to General Duan before, and I am very satisfied with our Qing'er when I see General Duan's meaning, so this family matter should be no problem." The Cloud City Lord nodded in response.
"If General Duan really has intentions, then this matter will be nine out of ten." Hearing her husband like this, Mrs. Yun had a little more smile on her face.
Yun Yan on the side pouted, her father was too cute.
Yun Zhiqing listened to the conversation of her parents at the moment, and she was a little unable to interject, but when she heard her mother say that she would go to propose tomorrow, she suddenly smiled on her face, great, really good.
"Big brother, didn't you buy a hosta in Ainian Yuxing to give to Wan'er? Did you send it? Yun Yan suddenly turned around and asked.
"Oops, I forgot about it." Yun Zhiqing patted his head with a look of annoyance, because of the previous incident, he forgot about it.
"Can you forget this?" Mrs. Yun glanced at her son with some dissatisfaction, "Don't send it yet." ”
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away." Yun Zhiqing responded, turned around and ran out.
Yun Zhiqing arrived at General Duan and did not see Duan Qingwan, and the person who let the person report said that Duan Qingwan was tired and rested.
Yun Zhiqing couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart, and just wanted to leave, but he happened to see Duan Xinrou who happened to pass by.
"Young Master Yun, why are you here?" Duan Xinrou was slightly stunned when she saw him, but she still greeted him again and again, before, when she didn't see His Royal Highness, in fact, she liked Yun Zhiqing in her heart, Yun Zhiqing was gentle, considerate, personable, and gentle, such a man could easily arouse the favor of girls.
What's more, he is the only son of the Cloud City Lord, he wants to have a strong family, he must have good looks, and he must have the ability and ability, Duan Xinrou originally thought that he would marry him.
It's just that the appearance of His Royal Highness made her instantly dispel such thoughts, in Phoenix City, or Yun Zhiqing is the best, but compared to His Highness, it is nothing.
"Rou'er, you're just here." Yun Zhiqing was secretly annoyed that he couldn't give the gift to Duan Qingwan, but when he saw Duan Xinrou, his face suddenly spread with a little joy, he could ask Rou'er to help give things to Wan'er.
"What's the matter?" Duan Xinrou looked at him with some doubts.
Yun Zhiqing took out a very delicate box from his arms and handed it to Duan Xinrou.
"Yun Gongzi, right..."Duan Xinrou was slightly stunned, although she no longer had that meaning for Yun Zhiqing now, but she was secretly happy to see Yun Zhiqing give her a gift, and her vanity was immediately satisfied, and she was just about to shirk her reserve.
"Rou'er, this is a gift I bought for Wan'er, but I didn't come to give it to Wan'er, can you help me give it to Wan'er?"
It's just that Yun Zhiqing opened his mouth at this time, instantly shattering the joy in Duan Xinrou's heart.
Hearing that Yun Zhiqing's gift was actually for Duan Qingwan, he was even more hateful and angry, but in order to maintain his image, he could only endure it and pretend to be indifferent and asked, "What is this?" ”
"It's a hosta, Yun Yan accompanied me to Ainian Yuhang to buy it, Yun Yan said, girls generally like this, I hope I can like it later." The corners of Yun Zhiqing's lips were slightly raised, and he smiled gently, but his eyes at the moment were not looking at Duan Xinrou, but smiling because of another woman.
For a while, Duan Qingwan gritted his teeth with hatred, almost vomiting blood, why? Why?
She has known Yun Zhiqing for so many years, and Yun Zhiqing has never given her anything, but Yun Zhiqing has only seen Duan Qingwan twice, and he actually gave Duan Qingwan such a valuable thing, and he loves the hosta of Yuxing?!
After what happened last time, she deliberately went to Ainian Yuxing to see it, and the jade pieces in it were at least tens of thousands of taels of gold.
Yun Zhiqing bought it so solemnly, but I am afraid that it is more than this price.
Why can't she get something that she is so good, but that cheap girl can easily get it.
For a while, Duan Xinrou hated it to the extreme in her heart, her body was subconsciously tensed, and the hand hidden under her sleeve tightened even more.
"Rou'er, what's wrong with you?" Yun Zhiqing felt that something seemed wrong with her, and looked at her a little strangely.
"It's fine." Duan Xinrou tried her best to suppress the hatred in her heart, hid the strangeness on her face, and tried her best to squeeze out a chuckle, "Didn't you say that you wanted me to help you send you a night gift?" Give it to me. ”
"Okay, Rou'er, thank you." Yun Zhiqing was happy when he saw that she was willing to help, so he didn't think too much about it, and Xinrou's image in front of everyone was indeed too good in normal times, so he didn't suspect anything, but he still added, "Rou'er, you must personally help me hand it over to Wan'er." ”
"Okay, I know." Duan Xinrou responded with a chuckle, only to see that after Yun Zhiqing left, the smile on his face quickly disappeared, and the uncontrollable hatred in his eyes became very terrifying.
"Duan Qingwan, I will never let you go." Duan Xinrou gritted her teeth fiercely, and the words were squeezed out hard, which was terrifying.
Duan Xinrou looked at the hosta in her hand, her eyes were a little more vicious, Duan Qingwan, this time, you just wait for death.
The next day, early in the morning, the Lord of Yun City and Mrs. Yun prepared a generous gift, came to the General's Mansion, and came to the door to propose.
