Shen Congqian glanced at Cuizhu, and his tone was not distinguishable from joy and anger: "I just finished teaching you a lesson, and you forgot about it again? Do you think you are a matchmaker, and you are here to match." ”

Cuizhu felt that the master was in a very bad mood today, so he didn't dare to say a word. Shen Congqian was really uncomfortable today, and she thought that the trip to Pingcheng would solve a major matter on her mind, but she didn't know if she had solved one thing and had another.

When they arrived at the Zhenbei Palace, it was already dusk, and Ji Hongxuan and his party were bound to rest in the palace. There was a row of houses in the palace for the soldiers to rest. Ji Honghuan took people to arrange accommodation, Ji Hongxuan was worried about Nalan Jinxiu, and went straight to the Star Picking Tower.

There were so many people coming back from the palace at once, and the Star Picking Tower had already heard the movement, and Nalan Jinxiu couldn't tell the situation, and was standing on tiptoe on the second floor looking out of the courtyard.

Ji Hongxuan saw her as soon as she entered the courtyard, she stood tall, her plain dress was dyed golden by the dusk, her long black hair fluttered in the breeze, and the scene was beautiful like a dream. He suddenly remembered Luo Shenfu: it seems to be like a light cloud covering the moon, fluttering like the snow of the wind.

Nalan Jinxiu was condescending, and naturally saw him, she waved her hand at him excitedly, and shouted, "Sixth brother!"

Ji Hongxuan was really afraid that she would accidentally fall, looking at her dangerous movements, he didn't even dare to stop it, for fear that she would be distracted and her feet would be uncertain. He strode upstairs, looking anxious.

Nalan Jinxiu looked at him in three steps and two steps, and inexplicably wanted to laugh. She knew what he was worried about, but the Star Picking Tower was particularly strong, especially these railings, not to mention that she was a weak woman, even a dozen strong men might not be able to fall.

She is a little childlike now, and looking at Ji Hongxuan's anxious appearance, she thinks it's fun to scare him. She didn't go any further, just stood still, laughing and laughing. Mu Li stood behind her, just within reach. He is used to guarding the county lord, so he is always close to her so that when she is in danger, he can take action in time.

Ji Hongxuan ran up to the second floor, with a cold face, and in an instant, he was in front of Nalan Jinxiu. Nalan Jinxiu couldn't help laughing louder when he saw that his face was so long, and pointed at him and said, "Sixth brother, you go and look in the mirror yourself, and see that your face is longer than that horse's face now." ”

Ji Hongxuan was originally going to reprimand her with a straight face, but when she heard her compare him with a horse, she immediately laughed angrily. Reaching out and rubbing her forehead, her tone was not gentle: "This is a two-story building after all, you shouldn't be so close to the railing, what if you fall down?"

Nalan Jinxiu didn't care about what he said at all, and retorted confidently: "I live here, and I am very familiar with the Star Picking Tower, how can I fall down?"

"There are accidents in everything, you have to prevent them before they happen, you don't understand!"

"Prevention is right, but it doesn't need to be prevented at all. ”

"Xu Jinsheng!" Ji Hongxuan shouted at her, she really couldn't see her standing here, and reached out to pull her.

He has been baptized on the battlefield for so long, and now he is calming his face, and he shouted her just now, no matter how you look at it, it is very cold and majestic. Nalan Jinxiu was stunned by his yelling, and forgot to yell back.

Mu Li saw that Ji Hongxuan stretched out his hand to pull the county lord, and reflexively pulled Nalan Jinxiu over and protected him behind him. At the moment when he called the county lord's name just now, Mu Li was very unhappy, his county lord usually smiled, and he was so gentle to everyone, who dared to say a heavy word to her up and down the star picking building? What if Ji Hongxuan was her cousin, the county lord couldn't take his turn to discipline him!

Ji Hongxuan looked at Mu Li's movements, his face stretched longer, and his dark and clear eyes were full of anger that was about to come. Nalan Jinxiu felt that the atmosphere was abnormal, and she didn't smile anymore. She first looked at Ji Hongxuan, and then at Mu Li, these two people were very oppressive, one was indifferent and silent, and the other was angry.

She thought that maybe her joke was a little big, so she wanted to break the cold scene, she smiled and said, "What are you two doing, staring at each other with big eyes, are you not blinking for longer than anyone else?"

The two of them still didn't move, and she said helplessly: "Okay then! I'll be the referee for you." ”

As she spoke, she walked up to Mu Li and saw that he didn't pay attention to herself. ran to Ji Hongxuan again, and he also looked like he ignored her. In the past, when he was in Jifu, he and her played together every day, and there was never such a serious time. Looking at his deep appearance now, I couldn't help but make a grimace at him. Ji Hongxuan couldn't hold back any longer, and laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, sixth brother, you lost to Mu Li. ”

Ji Hongxuan glanced at her, and his tone was quite calm: "I didn't compete with him, why did I say that I lost?"

"I'll take it to you anyway. ”

Ji Hongxuan was helpless, reached out and rubbed her forehead hair again, and said dotingly: "Think whatever you want to be happy!"

Enough of the joke, Nalan Jinxiu approached him and asked, "Are you escorting the princess?"

"You know all this?"

"That's nature, I'm so smart, how can there be something I don't know?"

Ji Hongxuan looked at her proudly, and couldn't help laughing again. Although Nalan Jinxiu has been in Northern Xinjiang for a while, after the battle in Pingcheng, Ji Hongxuan went with the king of Zhenbei, and they didn't see each other a few times, and they didn't even say a few words. I haven't seen him for so long, and Nalan Jinxiu still cares about what he has gone through, and he has become the big face he is now.

"So you're going to stay today?"

Ji Hongxuan nodded: "It's not easy to walk at night, and the brothers also need to rest and set off tomorrow morning." ”

"How long will the battle of Heijo last?"

"It's hard to say right now, it's quite complicated. ”

"What do you mean?"

"You don't understand, what does a girl do with so many questions?"

Nalan Jinxiu was speechless by his words, she looked at him, and muttered in a low voice: "Isn't it that I came more than a year earlier than me, and I know a little more things, look at your spirit." ”

Her voice was not loud or small, but Ji Hongxuan, who was standing in front of her, heard it clearly. After he came to Northern Xinjiang, he grew up very quickly, and when he looked back at the past, he actually had a feeling of youth and frivolity. Although it has only been more than a year, his mentality has changed a lot, unlike her, except that she has grown taller and thinner, and she is still like a child in other places.

"Are you so hospitable, you keep letting me drink the northwest wind here, and you don't invite me to sit in the house?" Ji Hongxuan said.

Nalan Jinxiu smiled, and was about to speak, when he heard Mu Li say: "It's getting late, and no foreign men can enter the county lord's residence." ”

Ji Hongxuan is quite calm on the battlefield, but after all, he is still a fifteen-year-old boy, no matter how calm he is, his anger is also very heavy. His face sank, and he said to Mu Li: "I am talking to the county lord, when will it be your turn to intervene as a guard?"

Mu Li also looked at Ji Hongxuan, and his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant: "I am the county lord's guard, and I must protect the county lord's safety at all times, and I have the right to stop everything that may threaten the county lord." ”

Mu Li is not a person who talks a lot, and he usually asks him to death, and he only tells you a few words. It was the first time Nalan Jinxiu had heard that he and a stranger could talk so much in one breath. She looked at him in surprise, and always felt that something was wrong with him today, as if he was extremely angry?

Ji Hongxuan wanted to hit someone, he took another step forward, looked at Mu Li at eye level, and said coldly: "You tell me clearly, why did I threaten the safety of the county lord?"

"If you don't conform to the rules, it's a threat. ”

"You, you, you, Ji Hongxuan was so angry that he couldn't hold it back, and his fist exhaled to Mu Li's face.

Mu Li's skills are among the best among all the shadow guards in the palace, and looking at the entire Chiyang City, and even the entire northern frontier, almost no one can beat him. He didn't take Ji Hongxuan's movements seriously, and only reached out to hold his wrist when his fist was about to reach his face. He was going to directly throw Ji Hongxuan to the ground and scare his sharpness.

All this was in an instant, and when Nalan Jinxiu reacted, Ji Hongxuan had already fallen to the ground. She was startled, stepped forward and pushed Mu Li away, half-knelt on the ground, and went to pull Ji Hongxuan.

Mu Liben didn't guard against her, and when she pushed her like this, she shook her body and took two steps back. He looked at Nalan Jinxiu in disbelief, did she just push him hard, this county lord, who was usually very gentle to everyone, had never been so emotional. Is this person important to her?

The reason why Nalan Jinxiu reacted so much was because she knew Mu Li's skills, and ordinary people were thrown by him, and she was afraid that she would have to lose half her life. How old Ji Hongxuan was, she was really worried that she would break him, so she rushed to him and said anxiously: "Sixth brother, are you okay?"

Ji Hongxuan was indeed thrown lightly this time, and he felt the blood in his chest surging for a while. This person is very strong, he admits that he can't beat him, and is silently reciting in his heart, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and he saw Nalan Jinxiu turn around and say to Mu Li: "Who told you to do it?"

Mu Li didn't know why, his face turned white all of a sudden. He looked at Nalan Jinxiu in a daze, bowed his head and saluted, and said lightly: "My subordinates know that they are wrong, please punish the county lord." ”

Nalan Jinxiu is really a little angry this time, she is usually very conniving, but this does not mean that she does not have a bottom line. He started beating someone, could she not say a word? Who is he showing him now, is she really helpless to treat him?

"If you hurt people without my permission, I will punish you with ten military sticks, do you have any opinions?"

Mu Li raised his head, only glanced at her lightly, then turned his eyes to the side, and still replied in an undulating voice: "But it's up to the county lord to deal with." ”
