Xiao Rui and Xiao Yan left the palace and went back to their respective homes.

When Xiao Rui got into the carriage and returned home, he had just walked two streets when he was reminded by Wu Zhanfa, saying that there was a carriage of the King of Chu parked in front of him, and it seemed that he was waiting for Xiao Rui again.

Xiao Rui lifted the curtain and looked over, just in time to see that Xiao Yiheng, the king of Chu, also lifted the curtain and waved his hand at him.

There was no way, Xiao Rui, as a younger brother, could only get off the horse and walk over.

"Second brother, are you looking at the scenery? Sure enough, I want Yaxing. Xiao Rui came to the carriage and asked.

Xiao Yiheng didn't get out of the car, nor did he pay attention to Xiao Rui's jokes, but directly picked out the topic, and said: "In the past, my seventh brother and I didn't move around often, ignoring that there is also a talented younger brother, tomorrow I will have a banquet in the mansion, I don't know if my brother can appreciate his face, go to my mansion to talk?" ”

Xiao Rui already knew that Xiao Yiheng was arrogant, but he just sat in the carriage and talked to himself like this, did he take himself too seriously?

I'm also a prince!

"I'm sorry second brother, the eldest brother has invited me in advance." Xiao Rui said apologetically, he didn't blink his eyes when he lied, so he immediately pushed out Xiao Lie, the king of Jin.

You bite the fight casually, and I'll watch the battle.

Sure enough, as soon as he heard that the eldest prince was one step ahead of him, Xiao Yiheng's face froze.

"If that's the case, that's it." Xiao Yiheng was deflated, and he didn't have the heart to invite, so he said.

Xiao Rui wanted to disgust him, and said, "I'm free tomorrow, why don't you visit my second brother?" ”

Xiao Yiheng was stunned for a moment, looked at Xiao Rui, then nodded, and said, "Okay, welcome the seventh brother then." ”

The topic ended, and the two left separately.

In the carriage, Xiao Rui smiled.

Xiao Yiheng's intentions are obvious, his performance is too good, so he wants to test himself and even win himself over. Therefore, Xiao Yiheng's banquet is by no means a good banquet, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a Hongmen banquet. As for why he agreed to him, he completely wanted to explore the water.

How the confrontation will be tomorrow can only depend on your own casual adaptation.

Having said that, the system has been urinating lately, and it doesn't issue any tasks anymore.

Looking at the 90/100 advent value in my mind, there are still 10 points left to come again, why did it wither?

Oh, so you're such a system!

"Warning, if the host continues to insult the system, there will be unexpected punishment. For example, a certain part is reduced by one centimeter! ”

Xiao Rui immediately shut up, okay, it's still strong.

Although it is far better to reduce the size of one centimeter, after all, the longer the better!

"I'm talking about height!" The system warns.

"I'm talking about height, too!" Xiao Rui replied.

……

In the evening, Wu Zhanfa saw that Xiao Rui was still practicing, and couldn't help asking, "Your Highness, didn't you say that King Jin invited you to come over the mansion for a talk?" When are we leaving? ”

Xiao Rui accepted the invitation and said with a smile: "I lied to the King of Chu." ”

Wu Zhanfa was stunned and asked, "Your Highness, then you are not afraid that the King of Chu will show your stuffing when he asks you tomorrow?" ”

"I only said that King Jin invited me, and I didn't agree to go, and I just didn't tell him." Xiao Rui said with a smile.

Wu Zhanfa gave a thumbs up, admiring the treachery of his Highness.

Xiao Rui wiped his sweat with a towel and asked, "Tactics, how is my cultivation now?" ”

Wu Zhanfa said with a smile: "Doctor Hua has opened up the roots and bones of His Highness, coupled with your hard practice, now it is not a problem to defeat seven or eight brave warriors, if His Highness's sword technique can be further refined, he will be able to enter the realm of second-grade martial artists!" ”

In the second-grade martial artist realm, you can defeat at least ten warriors.

"It's too slow, how do you hone your sword skills?" Xiao Rui said.

The corners of Wu Zhanfa's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but say, "Slow? Your Highness, how do you let other warriors live? It's only been more than three months since you've been practicing martial arts, and this is already a god speed! ”

Xiao Rui said with a smile: "Extraordinary people, naturally do extraordinary things, I still want to enter the second grade realm before the autumn equinox." ”

Wu Zhanfa shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, Your Highness is talented, and it's not impossible. If you want to hone your sword skills, it is no longer possible to simply practice knives, and now His Royal Highness's knife skills are extremely proficient, although he has also killed people, stained with blood, and has a killing nature, but it is far from enough, and he must be tempered by life and death in order to improve in a short time. ”

Xiao Rui sighed and said, "You and Wei Guang are tied, where can I find life and death training?" ”

Wu Zhanfa said embarrassedly: "Your Highness's daughter's body, if it is injured, how can we bear it?" ”

Xiao Rui shook his head and didn't force them, so Xiao Rui thought of Zhuge Liuying.

Hey, this girl dares to take herself to kill bandits to practice swordsmanship, just ask her! Just go, after Xiao Rui took a shower, he immediately went to visit the champion Hou.

The Champion Hou's Mansion is also in the south of the city, so the distance is not far, and in order to keep a low profile, Xiao Rui only takes an ordinary carriage to go.

When I came to the Champion Hou Mansion, I saw a pitch-black stone tablet standing in front of the Hou Mansion, which was engraved with four words: Brave Champion Three Armies!

This is the merit given by Emperor Xia to the champion Hou, and everyone has to dismount before passing by the door to show respect for the champion Hou. The Twelve Military Marquis of Great Xia, the champion Hou guards the north all the year round, deters the Great Qi State, and guards the 5,000-mile border of the Great Xia Kingdom.

Xiao Rui personally dismounted and went to knock on the door of the mansion.

After a while, the side door opened, and an old servant walked out, looking at Xiao Rui dressed in ordinary clothes, and asked curiously, "Childe, who are you looking for?" ”

"I'm a friend of your Miss Zhuge family, please spread the word, and say that Xiao Qirui wants to see me." Xiao Rui used a pseudonym.

The old servant was a little embarrassed, looked back at the house, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Please wait a moment." ”

After speaking, the old servant hurried to report.

Xiao Rui wondered, what happened, he was quite embarrassed?

After a while, the old servant opened the door again, invited Xiao Rui into the house, and said, "Son, please!" ”

Xiao Rui thanked him and followed the old servant into the mansion.

The Champion Mansion's Mansion was not as good as the Prince's Mansion, and it was only a quarter in size, so Xiao Rui followed the old servant through the front hall, through a garden, and around a cloister to a quiet small mansion.

The old servant said, "Childe, please come in." ”

Xiao Rui looked at the back of the old servant leaving in a hurry, and wondered, what the hell is going on?

He entered the small mansion, glanced around, and saw a pavilion in the corner, in which a middle-aged Confucian student was drinking tea, and there was no figure of Zhuge Liuying.

"His Royal Highness King Xian, since you are here, why don't you enter the pavilion for tea?" The middle-aged Confucian said suddenly.

Xiao Rui looked at the middle-aged Confucian and didn't know him, although he was only wearing a cyan linen gown, but he was elegant, this is still second, after practicing martial arts, Xiao Rui could see the spirit of the martial artist, so the middle-aged Confucian in front of him was not only elegant, but also had strong martial arts attainments.

Who's this?

Xiao Rui wondered in his heart, but stepped forward, came to the pavilion and saluted, and said, "I'm bothered, I don't know what Mr. is called?" ”

The middle-aged Confucian got up and returned the salute, and then said with a smile: "It's better to see than to hear, His Royal Highness King Xian is a corporal, and he really deserves his reputation." ”

"Sir?" Xiao Rui asked again.

The middle-aged Confucian said: "I am Liuying's uncle, Zhuge Yuanba. ”

Xiao Rui suddenly heard that the champion Hou had a younger brother, and it turned out to be the person in front of him. It's just the name, it's so domineering.

"It turned out to be Zhuge senior, bothered." Xiao Rui said again.

Zhuge Yuanba stretched out his hand to invite Xiao Rui to sit down, and then said: "It is an honor for His Royal Highness to come here, which is the honor of the Champion Hou Mansion. I heard that His Highness is here to find Liuying?"

Xiao Rui nodded and asked, "That's right, what about her?" ”

Zhuge Yuanba pointed to the main house of the mansion and said with a smile: "Confinement, her father asked me to watch her and forbade her to go out." As for the reason, I heard that His Royal Highness gave her a bad idea, so that she could not form a female barracks, and she groped in the direction of female spying, so she really organized a group of orphan girls and started training. ”

"Uh..."

Xiao Rui opened his mouth, did he hit the muzzle of the gun?
