"You've always been like that." Qin Xin shook his head slightly, "There are no scruples about doing things, think about it, this Admiral of the Nine Gates--" After a pause, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, we won't talk about this." Thank you for running twice a day. ”

Zhang Tan smiled bitterly: "When have you been so polite to me." But--" Zhang Zhi said with a straight face, "You should go and see the old general, he is your father after all." ”

Qin Xin's face changed and said, "Let's not talk about this." Zhang Zhi knew that he had talked about the sore spot of the piano's heart, so he didn't mention it again.

As soon as Zhang Yuan left, Rick walked out from behind the hall, he walked to Qin Xin's side, and whispered: "Sister-in-law, I didn't expect you to have a father, or a general, so I have the opportunity to introduce you." ”

Qin Xin immediately said angrily: "You dare to eavesdrop on us." ”

"Nope! I just happened to be passing by. ”

"You're passing by too coincidentally." Qin Xin sneered.

Rick laughed, "It's more coincidental than this that happened to me, what else is impossible." ”

Qin Xin bit her silver teeth, she knew that Rick's skin was thick, and she didn't expect it to be so thick. Seeing that she stopped talking, Rick laughed and left the hall. For some reason, he was so happy that he could make Kotomi angry, and it seemed to have become a pleasure in his life.

On January 16, 2051, Rick had just finished breakfast and was chatting with Chrissy and Yuludong. He felt that the pleasure he could find here was running out, but luckily teasing Chrissy and Gyokuro was still one of the few pleasures he had. In particular, the jade dew, which bears the rain and dew at the beginning of the Huoyun Desert, is more and more cold and compelling. But. Icy is for others. Rick is the only one who can enjoy her tender side.

After the cutlery is removed. The heron walked in. Ever since she lost herself to Rick in the Firecloud Desert, she has maintained a subtle and exciting distance from Rick, as if a single look can make the other person feel soul-destroying. The heron is not like Gyokuro, and Rick can openly stay in Gyokuro's room, but not her. However, the Nymphs are also women, and although they are born of the aura of heaven and earth, their bodies are no different from those of humans. They have seven emotions and six desires, love and hatred, but because they have experienced thousands of years, they just look at one qiē lightly.

Qinglu saw that Rick, Chrissy, and Gyokuro were laughing, and there was a little strange in her eyes, but she quickly returned to her original state, and she said, "Childe, someone sent an invitation just now. With that, he handed Rick a gilded invitation.

Rick opened it and saw a few lines of words dancing inside. actually invited Xia Hua to attend the banquet held at Bishui Villa tonight. There is no payment under the invitation, only a plum blossom mark is printed.

Rick stared at the invitation in amazement. Don’t know whether to wind a watch or bark at the moon. He didn't know where the Blue Water Villa was, nor who the person who invited him was, so what was he going to do. Luckily, it just so happened that Kinshin and Farri walked in, and they were nervous when they heard that Rick had been invited to the party. Qin Xin carefully looked at the mark on the invitation, pondered for a while, and said, "Farley, you will go with the young master tonight." ”

"Why did you let her go with me?"

"Because the person who invited you is hard to deal with, and without Farley by her side to remind you, you'll be exposed." Qin Xin said coldly.

"Can I bring some more?"

"Yes, but it must be a subordinate of the house."

"Forget it. What does this plum blossom mean? ”

"The Mei family - the Mei family that has an in-law relationship with the current prime minister and has the hereditary title of second-class duke, this plum blossom is the family crest of the Mei family."

Rick didn't expect the other party to be so big, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Why did he invite me?" Could it be that someone in the Mei family knows Xia Hua? ”

"Please call Xia Hua 'me' in the future." Qin Xin said unceremoniously, "But don't worry, no one in the Mei family knows you, but it is also the most likely to see through you, when your brother was alive, he intended to let you marry Mei Xing'er, and then you didn't agree to it, so this family business is just that." However, the Mei family may know you better than you know you. ”

Rick couldn't help but laugh when he heard her last sentence say so awkwardly, "I found that if you continue to desperately put me in Xia Hua's role like this, maybe one day I will really forget who I am." ”

"I have one more question." Rick changed his tone and asked, "Who is that Mei Xing'er?" ”

Qin Xin glared at him angrily, as if he blamed him for not asking other questions, but focusing on this Mei Xing'er, this was the first time that Qin Xin did not look at Rick with hostile eyes. Even Farri, who was beside Qin Xin, felt that there was a "problem" in her master's eyes. Rick certainly had a more lustful sense of soul-granting, but it wasn't obvious to him on his expression.

Qin Xin said: "Mei Xing'er is the daughter of Duke Mei's sister, and everyone in the Mei family calls her Miss Cousin. ”

"She's not going to live in Mei's house, is she?"

"You're right, she has indeed been living in Mei's house, but she traveled to the country of Velvet last year and shouldn't have come back yet."

Rick secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he had always had a worry in his heart, thinking that impersonating Xia Hua was very dangerous, so he was extremely reluctant to get close to those who had seen Xia Hua before. But tonight's banquet must not be missed, and he dare not think about what will happen then. Now he can only find out the situation, hoping that he will be able to hide it from the world when the time comes.

Seeing Rick's worried face, Qin Xin said slowly: "You don't have to worry, you can deal with it as usual, there will be no problem." ”

Rick thought about it, too, it was useless to deal with unknown difficulties. He stretched and stood up, and suddenly walked up to Qin Xin, and said with a strange face, "I want to ask you a personal question." ”

"You say." A hint of vigilance flashed in Qin Xin's eyes.

"Are pregnant women moody?"

"You--"

Rick laughed, suddenly put his face in front of Qin Xin and said, "I forgot to tell you, you have become fat." After speaking, he ignored Qin Xin's stunned appearance and strode out of the room.

That night, Rick and Farley ride in a gorgeous horse-drawn carriage to the Blue Water Villa in the west of the city, driven by a fisherwoman, who Rick does not expect to be a good driver. However, it was not Rick's intention to let her drive, but Jean's idea.

Although the Villa is located to the west of Boyent, it is directly north of the Duke's Palace, so the carriage travels north through a quiet alley. Rick wore a black dress with gold filigree patterns, and the cut style was compared to the most popular style in the imperial capital, and it was worn on his majestic body, which was heroic and upright. Farri wore a women's close-fitting evening gown tonight, with her chest open discreetly. She has short hair that is naturally curled, her eyes are dark blue, and she looks like two beautiful diamonds in the night, and with two crystal clear sapphire earrings on her earlobes, she shows both girlish style and mature charm. However, Rick was very dissatisfied with her outfit, especially the evening dress, and after boarding the carriage, he made a special comment on it, from women's aesthetic dress to the way men look at women. Farri listened patiently to him, then smiled softly, "This was chosen for me by Madame, and she said it was specially made to prevent the eyes of a certain pervert." ”

Rick was speechless.

The sound of wheels and horses' hooves echoed in the silent alley. There was a turn in front of him, and a cold light flashed in Rick's eyes, and he nudged Farley, signaling that she was alert. No, Erli was ready, and it could be seen that she had also noticed some unusual aura from the outside world. Rick was secretly strange. As far as he knew, Farri didn't know martial arts at all, and it was impossible for her to have super ear power similar to that of a skilled martial artist, but how could she find out about the outside world, Rick was secretly suspicious in his heart. However, he didn't have time to care about these things now, and dealing with the strong enemies outside was the most important thing. The speed of the carriage slowed down at some point, and Rick secretly thought in his heart: there were still two zhang, one zhang five, one zhang - at this moment, the wheels rattled, and the carriage stopped.

At the same time, countless hidden weapons suddenly flew out from the rooftops on both sides of the alley, and they went straight to the carriage. Rykra took Farri's hand and flew out of the carriage with a lightning bolt. At the same time, the hidden weapons suddenly seemed to hit something half a foot away from the carriage and fell to the ground one after another. Rick's eyes swept over the rooftops on both sides of the alley, and he was secretly frightened to find a cold light shining everywhere. At this moment, several screams suddenly sounded on the roof on the left, and at the same time, countless lightning and wind blades suddenly appeared in the sky above the roof on the right, and the targets of the attacks were all mysterious people lying on the roof. Rick thought it was Farri who was using magic, but found that she was also at a loss, and couldn't help but wonder secretly.

The people who ambushed them did not give up their efforts, and a few black-clothed people on the roof on the right suddenly gave up resisting the magic around them, and rushed to this side desperately, Rick did not give them a chance, the long sword was unsheathed, and the "moon like a thin willow and long wind attacked" in the rotating sealing technique, a gust of wind blew in the flat ground, and the long sword of Sen Han swept through the throats of the two black-clothed men like a touch of autumn water in the reflection of the moonlight. Rick's move did not pause, and after landing, he quickly turned around, and with another "Wind Attack", he slashed the other two men in black under the sword. Killing four enemies in two moves boosted his confidence, and he wanted to rush to the roof and kill. But he ignored one point, if the attacker only had such a little ability, how could he come to send him to death, in fact, the four men in black just now were just bait, and the real killing was the other two men in black hiding in the dark. Just as Rick's longsword was retracted and ready to pounce on the roof, a palm and a long sword suddenly stretched out from the darkness behind him. The palm of his hand hit the back of his heart, and there was a sound of wind and thunder in his palm; The long sword slashed straight at his neck, fast, whether the two of them were out of their palms or swords, they were as fast as lightning. Rick had never felt it this way - death was so close to him, and the Hades' mouth seemed to blow in his ears. At this moment of life and death, his mind was very clear, and it was too late to withdraw the long sword to block the enemy, so he simply gave up retracting the long sword, and switched back to the forward send, and at the same time his body miraculously twisted out, he knew that although he could dodge that palm, it was impossible to dodge the long sword, and the current shape could only be as good as possible, and it was better to be injured than dead.
