Chapter 447: Peeling Back the Cocoon

In the study, Pei Jiao shook his head in disappointment, blaming himself for being too indulgent to his son on weekdays, making Pei Yukou an arrogant and empty embroidered pillow.

"Are you going to just have a birthday banquet next?" But for the safety of the family, he had to break it up and crumple it and tell Pei Yukou to listen: "We are trying to win the world!" The difficulty is much higher than that of the Xiahou valve, let you be the valve owner, pick this head, can you do it? ”

"No......" Pei Yukou lowered his head in despair.

"Finally, I'm still a little self-aware." Pei Jiao's face turned slightly pale, and he sighed lightly: "Doing extraordinary things in extraordinary times, the valve owner knows that he is old and weak, and he is overwhelmed by his heavy responsibilities, so he will take the initiative to abdicate and make way for Xian." And if you want to seize the world, you can't do it, if you look at me Pei Valve, I can't, you can't, only Pei can take on this big responsibility! ”

"The child understands, and it will be converged in the future." Pei Yukou knew that the general trend was irreversible, so he could only reluctantly give up and wanted to compete with Pei Du.

Since yesterday, as soon as it was dark, it began to snow in the city of Luodu.

The snow fell for a night, and at dawn, from the fifth floor of the Shang family's head office, I pushed the window out, and the pavilions, streets, and houses of the entire city of Luodu were covered with snow, and the sky and the earth were covered in snow. The goose-feather-like snowflakes still fluttered and fell from the lead-colored sky, without the slightest intention of stopping, and looked extremely blurry.

Taking a deep breath of cold air, Shang Luojia, who had long hair and a shawl and a plain face, tightened the cloak on his shoulders, and Frost hurriedly came over and closed the window.

"Miss, why did you leave the window open? What should I do if I freeze my body? Frost helped Shang Luojia and walked to the flower pavilion with a warm cage.

In the warm cage, the silver silk tribute charcoal was running with a faint blue flame, without a trace of smoke, but Shang Luojia covered his mouth and nose for a while before he whispered: "Wait for me to dress up, there are distinguished guests coming to the door today." ”

"Yes." Hearing the fate, Shuangshuang went into the lady's bedroom, brought out a dressing utensils, and helped Shang Luojia dress up in the flower-filled flower pavilion.

Looking at the pale face in the mirror, Shang Luojia pointed to his cheek and said, "Here is some rouge, it looks more energetic." ”

"Got it." Seeing this, Shuangshuang also breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Miss is in the mood to dress up, otherwise how should I spend this year?" But it's going to make people sad to death. ”

It's the middle of winter, and it's reasonable for Shang Luojia to nest upstairs all day, but he can't not show up during the New Year, right? You have to report the business situation of the next year to Shang Yun in person, right? You have to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with an old snack, right? You have to pay New Year's greetings to some important people, right? None of this can be run.

But it's all in the wax moon, and Shang Luojia is still depressed all day long, not eating, drinking, or grooming, but the frost is in a hurry.

"Don't worry, I'll cheer myself up." Shang Luojia looked in the mirror, under the dress of Shuangshuang, she gradually regained her former demeanor, a gleam flashed in her eyes, and she sighed faintly: "The matter has come to this, I can't be blindly depressed anymore, I must do something to make myself reconcile...... Better than some. ”

"Now the slave can be regarded as relieved." Seeing that Shang Luojia had finally passed this hurdle, Shuangshuang was also overjoyed, and finally opened the conversation and asked: "Miss, I heard that the girl was very cold that day, and she never accepted any invitation, but someone came to the door to meet her, and they all went to eat and closed the door." Will you really accept Miss's invitation this time? ”

"Of course she'll come." Shang Luojia stretched out her hands, put on a water-green overskirt like a green wave, and slowly stood up. Just listen to her tone and say firmly: "Because we have a common enemy......"

Shang Luojia really guessed correctly.

Just after the hour, a girl holding a paper umbrella and wearing a white cloak appeared in the snowy North City.

Before coming to the head office of the Shang family, the girl stopped, looked up at the five-story mansion, and couldn't help frowning slightly. She didn't like the feeling of being on top of the mountain, just like she was on the hidden peak of Mount Taimuro.

Under the hat, the beautiful face of the goddess is revealed.

She doesn't like to look up to others, and she doesn't like others to look up to her. But during this period of the Heavenly Master's Mansion in the capital, especially after the master defeated Sun Yuenlong, this feeling of being looked up to was especially strong......

"Finish the task earlier and leave the city of Luodu...... the Celestial Maiden couldn't help but miss the days when she ran around and followed the footsteps of the Holy Maiden. Although that short experience was hard and embarrassing, no one knew her identity, which made her feel more comfortable than ever.

'Then I didn't go back to Taimur Mountain, so I said that I wanted to travel and practice, and Master shouldn't object......

The Heavenly Maiden secretly made up her mind and stepped up the steps of the Shang family's head office.

The guards guarding the door had already been instructed, and as soon as they saw the Celestial Maiden, they hurried to open the door and lead her upstairs.

When she went up to the fifth floor and saw the hanging garden full of flowers and small bridges and flowing water, the Heavenly Maiden was taken aback again. At this time, she is used to seeing the luxurious and wealthy life of the Luodu Gate Valve, but she has never seen such an amazing scene. This is on a five-story building, to create such a small garden, without millions of taels of silver, don't even think about it!

Only the richest businessman in Daxuan can have such a big deal.

"The Heavenly Maiden arrived, and the humble house was shining." Shang Luojia's refreshing and pleasant voice sounded at the other end of the bridge.

The heavenly maiden said in her heart, are you a humble house? There is no place in the world where people can live. But she has always been quiet and will not tell what she thinks to a person who is only a one-sided friend.

The Heavenly Maiden nodded slightly at Shang Luojia, which was considered a courtesy. "Miss Shang has lost a lot of money since the last time we met."

"Alas, they were all harmed by that demon girl...... Shang Luojia sighed faintly, and almost shed tears again.

"Oh? So, have you really dealt with Su Yingsleeve? The Heavenly Maiden's eyes lit up, the reason why she came to see Shang Luojia was naturally because the other party swore that she had the information of the Holy Maiden of Taiping Dao.

"Please move inside, and I'll tell you slowly." Shang Luojia invited sideways, the Celestial Maiden nodded, handed her hat cloak and paper umbrella to Frost, and followed Shang Luojia to the flowery flower pavilion.

Frost brought the cloud tea, and the Heavenly Maiden glanced at Shang Luojia through the water vapor, and asked simply: "The whereabouts of the saintess you are talking about, are you referring to the Cui family?" ”

"Yes, Cui Yingzhi's only daughter Cui Ning'er." After a while, Shang Luojia figured out the temper of the Heavenly Maiden, and knew that she was a simple and direct girl, so naturally she would not go around in circles with her, so as not to make the Heavenly Maiden unhappy.

Shang Luojia has never suffered such a big dumb loss in his life, of course he won't just forget it. She kept an eye on Cui Ning'er, and let people check it out, who knew that the demon girl was very meticulous, and with Cui Valve as a cover, Shang Luojia found that she really couldn't do it, so she attacked Cui Ning'er directly.

But during the investigation, she found that the people of the Heavenly Master Dao had also been staring at Cui Ning'er, and even the Heavenly Maiden had personally gone to Cui Ning'er - the purpose of the Heavenly Maiden coming down the mountain was not a secret, and Shang Luojia certainly knew that she was coming for the Holy Maiden of the Taiping Dao. So even if Cui Ning'er is not Su Yingsleeve herself, she must have a lot to do with Su Yingsleeve!

So she turned her gaze to the Celestial Maiden......
