After walking for a while, Yu Ran and Jiu Anlan borrowed horses. Originally, Jiu Anlan was still asking if Yuran needed to borrow a carriage or was willing to ride with him, but Yuran turned over neatly and got on the horse, and Jiu Anlan suddenly shut up.

Along the way, the two avoided the main street with many people, and walked directly through the remote mountain forest.

A few days ago, they had taken a break at the inn in the evening. But later, they entered a deserted countryside after leaving the gate of Tianbai City, and only sometimes could they see a few people passing by on the road, so the two of them thought about it and slept in the wilderness for one night.

The next day, they rode some distance again, and when they passed the stream, they turned over and dismounted, ready to rest by the stream.

"I really didn't expect that Ayu's riding skills are so good, you don't look like a woman at all!" Jiu Anlan sat directly on the ground, touched his hair and smiled.

Yuran sat on a relatively smooth gravel, she was half bent, one elbow propped on her knee, the other arm hanging down naturally, and a white jade folding fan in her hand.

Yuran's posture was chic, and her expression was a little casual, and she asked with a smile: "You say I don't look like a woman?" ”

"Ah...... No, Ayu, you know I didn't mean that. As soon as Jiu Anlan saw Yuran's expression, he secretly felt that something was wrong, so he laughed a little wryly, "Okay, Ayu, don't be angry, you know, I'm a person who is sometimes straightforward...... Oh no, it's the ...... Well, how do you say that? ”

Yu Ran raised her eyes, she looked at Jiu Anlan's entangled appearance there, and laughed unceremoniously at all, and a smile gradually rose in her eyes, she opened her lips and said casually: "Forget it, I'm not angry." ”

"Really?" Jiu Anlan cautiously asked again. After getting along for the past few days, he found that Yu Ran was simply a person who hid a knife in his smile, which really felt exactly the same as the feeling his fourth brother gave him!

"Really." Yu Ran nodded, and then said, "By the way, Jiu Anlan, have you been hanging outside all these years?" ”

"Just call me Anlan." Jiu Anlan first shouted, and then answered: "Ah yes, because the family is really boring, and there are a few brothers before me, my father can't control me at all." So as soon as I have a free time, I will run out of the house, and the sky outside looks more beautiful anyway! Jiu Anlan said as he stretched out his arms.

Yu Ran raised his eyebrows, and the tip of the folding fan in his right hand lightly touched his chin, and there was a somewhat cunning look in his phoenix eyes, "Eh, it's really a leisurely thing that only the children of your son's family can enjoy." ”

"Ayu, you can't say that, can you? Just like Ayu, you do look like a young lady at first glance, but if you stay with you for a long time, you will find that you are not everyone's beautiful personality at all. Jiu Anlan said very naturally.

"Sounds interesting." Yu Ran raised his chin, and a pair of phoenix eyes were lightly picked, but there was no sense of life in them.

"All in all, in my opinion, Ayu, you are like my good brother. Well, that's what it feels like! Jiu Anlan clenched his fist with one hand and said with a smile.

"Good brother?" A strange look flashed in Yuran's eyes.

"Yes, good brother. Don't you think that the way we chat like we have now is very much like the kind of conversation between the brothers in the rivers and lakes? Ah, it's been a long time since I've had such a good time. Jiu Anlan said, his body suddenly leaned back, his hands were propped back on the ground, and his handsome face was full of excitement, which seemed to be really free.

Yu Ran suddenly stopped talking.

She stared at Jiu Anlan, good brother? Is it a good friend?

That's a very special word.

In this world, there are still people who regard her as a "brother" and think that she is a person who can be like-minded with him.

Maybe it was because she had been in another heavy environment for a long time, and she would feel that the situation she was in was so special, and she would actually talk and gossip with someone who didn't know where she came from, and she was called "brother".

"Ayu, let me ask you a question." Jiu Anlan picked up a dead branch on the ground and gently poked at the fine gravel and weeds on the ground as if he were playing.

"You say." The jade dye eyes are clear.

Jiu Anlan grinned, "Ayu, do you have a special admirer in this world?" ”

"Someone who is particularly admired?" Yuran's eyes widened slightly, then she seemed to really think about it carefully, and then she shook her head and said, "There shouldn't be." ”

"But I have." Jiu Anlan said with a grin.

Yuran's eyes showed a little interest, and she chuckled and asked, "Who?" It can't be the brother you mentioned, right? ”

"No, no, no. She, like Ayu, is a very special woman! Jiu Anlan's index finger swung from side to side, and then said very mysteriously: "Her name, you must be as excited as I am when you hear it." ”

"Tell me about it." Tamarin yawned, then scooped up his kettle to the ground with his left hand.

Jiu Anlan blinked, and then began to say with a sparkle in his eyes: "Her name is called Helian Yu!" ”

"Poof-" For a moment, the world seemed to be quiet, only the water that Yuran had just swallowed in her mouth was sprayed and choked by her.

"Ahem...... What are you talking about? I don't seem to hear you exactly who you just said you admire the most. Yuran kept adjusting her breathing, hoping that the discomfort in her throat would recover quickly.

Seeing Yu Ran choking, Jiu Anlan got up and came to Yu Ran with some concern, he gently patted Yu Ran's back, and then said in his mouth: "I said that the person I admire the most is Helian Yu, that is Helian Yu, the regent of Ningguo." Ayu, you really choked because you were so excited to hear this name, right? ”

"No......" Yuran instantly felt that her head might be a little dizzy, and she responded weakly.

"Eh, what's going on?" Puzzled, Jiu Anlan returned to where he had just been sitting.

Yu Ran let out a long sigh of relief, and then her expression gradually returned to normal, but at this moment, there was a little more intriguing feeling in her phoenix eyes.

Who did Jiu Anlan say he admired the most? The most admired Ning Guo Helian Yu?

In other words, the person he adores is ...... I?

Yuran shook his head in his heart, and then smiled as much as he could: "How can you worship Helian Yu?" Although I haven't asked before, Anlan, you're not from Ningguo, right? ”

"I'm not, I'm Chinese, I forgot to say it if you don't ask me." Jiu Anlan felt that it didn't matter if he said his country, "As for how can you worship Helian Yu...... Isn't that something obvious, commonplace? Don't you think Helian Yu is really a very powerful person? Since she was a child, she dressed as a man, and then after returning from her travels, she directly established her authority in the court and the world, and after being named the prince, she turned the tide several times with her own strength, and won the love of Ning Jun Helianqing at that time. Moreover, when Huaguo, Anguo, and Shang all attacked Ningguo, Helian Yu could successfully block the enemy without retreating.

"And recently, Helian Yu was pregnant for eight months, and as a result, he was able to stop Huaguo, and he was willing to take revenge on Shangguo for his confidante, how can I say it, it's too powerful and touching! Helian Yu is really a person who values both love and righteousness, and is talented, so I respect her so much! ”

When Jiu Anlan said that later, the more he talked, the more excited he became, which made Yuran, who was sitting not far in front of him, a little embarrassed.

How do you say how Tamazen feels now?

It's just that there is a person who talks in front of you, and you know that the person he is talking about is you, but you have to pretend that you don't know. And then that person inexplicably praised you seriously in front of you, and it is getting worse, which is a very strange thing, right?

"Haven't you heard the rumors of Helian Yu*, and the ruthlessness of the killing?" Tamarin finally interrupted, her voice sounding unusually calm.

Jiu Anlan heard this, then nodded and said, "I've heard of it." ”

"Then why do you still think Helian Yu is very good?" Yuran couldn't help but be surprised.

"A person's romance and talent can't be said together, right? Everyone in the world has a love for beauty, so what's wrong with Helian Yu? Moreover, I think the appearance of a smart person like Helian Yu in front of everyone's eyes is not necessarily true, Helian Yu can always deceive people with the appearance of people, so the other three kingdoms, including Ning Guo's own courtiers, will be played by Helian Yu, right? Jiu Anlan paused slightly, then raised his eyes and continued to speak, his expression looked particularly serious at the moment, "There are also those rumors that Helian Yu killed ruthlessly, even if this rumor is true, there is nothing strange, right?" Who is Helian Yu, she is the regent of Ning Kingdom. If a person really has the heart to aspire to the world, then decisiveness is what she must have. I'm afraid that Helian Yu is actually a person who thinks too much about the people around him, so it's really easy to be caught by others. ”

Jiu Anlanwu held his chin and finished speaking, and when he turned his head to look at Yu Ran, he saw that Yu Ran was looking at him a little distractedly.

"Ayu, what's wrong with you?"

Yu Ran listened to Jiu Anlan call herself, and then came back to her senses. She pursed her lips, her eyes drooped lightly, the smile on the corners of her lips was like nothing, and her expression suddenly looked as vague and uncertain as a distant mountain.

"I didn't expect you to understand Helian Yu's style so well." Yu Ran spoke softly, and his tone seemed to be particularly sighing.
