Rick snorted, "Wechen hasn't met Archbishop Cherokin, so he doesn't dare to say anything. ”

"Although the appearance of the Cherokin surprised me, it does not prove that those who attacked were the people of the Temple of War."

Rick said in his heart: You are a strong word. However, he had already made some statements, so he took the queen's words and said: "One of Wechen's subordinates was at the scene of the accident at the time, and she felt that there was a faint aura of war in the moves of those attacking warriors, and besides, according to Wechen's speculation, the whole story was probably related to the identity of Lei Du's new daughter-in-law, Fu Yina. ”

"What about the other than that?" The queen asked without relaxation.

Rick smiled wryly and said, "The following sentence is not for me, but I think it makes sense." ”

"What?"

"Sectarian warfare!"

The queen was slightly stunned, and the smile on the corner of her lips bloomed like a flower. Seeing this smile, a strange light exploded in Rick's eyes, and the strange light flashed away, and Rick quickly lowered his head.

The queen pondered for a moment, and then seemed to gossip and asked, "How many guards has been recruited in the Duke's Palace?" ”

"Back to His Majesty, a total of forty-five."

"How can it be so little?"

Rick smiled confidently: "Weichen is relatively poor, so he took the trouble to find some masters, one for five." ”

"But I've heard that you're a 'rich man.'"

Rick shouted injustice: "Your Majesty is clearly observing, the minister is really clean and poor. ”

"Are you really that poor?"

"Yes." Rick bites the root of his tongue and perseveres to the end.

The queen seemed to be interested in the topic, and asked step by step, "What do you use to feed so many women around you?" ”

Rick was slightly stunned and exclaimed, "Your Majesty really knows everything. But there's something inside. Please let me know. Most of the women around the minister are friends of the minister. They don't have to worry about their lives. ”

"You mean you don't have to spend money?"

"Yes!"

The queen phoenix showed a puzzled look in her eyes, she really couldn't see anything special about the man in front of her, which attracted so many women to flock to him. However, at this point, there is no need to continue asking. With a wave of her hand, the queen motioned for Rick to step aside. Rick hurriedly got up and patted his knee habitually, as if he was afraid of getting dirty. This action made the queen feel angry and funny. Just as Rick was about to step out of the study. The queen's voice suddenly came from behind her: "Count Xia Hua, I will go hunting in the western suburbs pasture the day after tomorrow, you go with me, in order to save your life, I allow you to bring some masters with you--"

Before the queen could finish her sentence, Rick suddenly stumbled and fell outside the study.

Whether it was a fall or a hunt, it was an absolute accident for him.

Rick touched his head and left, in the imperial study. The Blue Moon Queen said to Concubine Ji Xue behind her, "He seems to think that going hunting with me is a chore. ”

"He's so weird, and it's this weirdness that makes him that carefree." Concubine Ji Xue said with a smile.

The queen looked back at Concubine Ji Xue strangely. "Your smile is very strange, as if you know him very well." ”

Concubine Ji Xue's heart was shocked, and something was gradually becoming clear in her heart. She smiled reluctantly: "Weichen doesn't know either. ”

The queen said displeasedly: "When you are alone together, you don't have to be a minister in front of me, and I don't have to be called me, I have already said it." ”

Concubine Ji Xue lowered her head slightly, and there was a strange silence in the imperial study.

Rick fell, a little confused, so he touched his head all the way to the palace gate. After walking a distance, he came to a bend in the corner, and suddenly, something hit him head-on, and he hurriedly dodged to the side, but somehow, he still bumped into a soft thing. He was so weak from wrestling that he couldn't hold his feet at all, so he threw himself forward by inertia. Fortunately, he felt that he did not touch the hard slate ground, on the contrary, he felt that the place where his hand was supported was soft and elastic, and before he had time to look closely, he couldn't help but pinch a few handfuls. But these pinching were also exchanged for a slap in the face, "pop--", and the sound was so long and loud. Rick immediately sobered up, and then he saw clearly that his hands were propped up on the crisp breasts of a court maid, who was lying on his back on the ground, and was looking at him with burning eyes at the moment, and the second slap had already been swung out, but fortunately he was quick, and quickly got up and retreated, and finally avoided it.

"Where did the madman come from? Dare to be presumptuous in the palace. Another court maid standing on the side said.

Rick thought to himself, this is a big disaster. These court ladies stayed by the Queen's side all day, and with a slight blow in the Queen's ear, their pretended earl's head would say goodbye to the body. He hurriedly apologized again and again: "I'm sorry - I'm sorry - I just fell in the imperial study, I was a little dizzy, and I accidentally bumped into two beautiful young ladies, I really deserve death." ”

The maid lying on the ground stood up, calmed down, and said, "Since you didn't mean it, forget it." ”

Another maid hurriedly said, "Zhaoxian, how can you spare him lightly?" --" The maid known as Zhaoxian shook her hand slightly, motioned for her to stop talking, followed her gaze, and fell on Rick and said, "You fell in the imperial study?" Could it be that you are the Count of Permon? ”

Rick bowed his head slightly and said, "Miss is right, but it's okay to call me Xia Hua - I really didn't mean to do it just now." ”

"No one said you did it on purpose, but your actions were hateful." Zhaoxian's companion couldn't help but say again. Her words reminded Rick of the touching scene of pinching Zhaoxian's crisp breasts, and the feeling was still lingering in the palm of his hand, which made his heart warm. He couldn't help but raise his head to look at Zhaoxian, and the other party's appearance made him slightly stunned - not amazing, but accidental, with a hint of sigh and regret. Zhaoxian was beautiful, nearly thirty years old, most of the skin on her face was smooth, but there were fine wrinkles like leopard prints at the corners of her forehead and eyes, and she seemed to have a tendency to extend to her cheeks, and her hair was quite dry and yellow, as if it was about to wither, which was very inappropriate for her age. Another suspicion baffled Rick, as far as he knew, the average court maid would be sent out of the palace at the age of twenty-five at the latest, allowing them to marry and have children freely, but this maid named Zhaoxian broke this rule.

Zhaoxian saw Rick looking at her intently, and her cheeks flushed slightly, but when she saw Rick's gaze with a hint of sigh and regret, her eyes suddenly dimmed. After a salute, he hurried away. Rick also turned around and continued to walk outside the palace, but his mind always hovered around Zhaoxian's face, and he couldn't forget it for a moment.

People are so strange, it is possible to face someone for a lifetime, and when she dies, you can't remember what she looks like, but sometimes just one look at someone is enough to remember it for a lifetime.

Back at the Duke's Palace, Rick wanted to find Chrissy and Alva, but he couldn't find them, and when he asked the next person, he learned that they were all in the martial arts training ground to watch the little girls of the Tianxiang team and the Tianfeng team practicing on muddy water stakes. He walked to the martial arts training ground, which was already filled with the joyful laughter of the girls. The scene in front of him was quite surprising, and the little girls made progress faster than he could have imagined. Some girls can occasionally use one or two beautiful movements when running on the stake, and their legs and feet are no longer vain, looking a little calm, and some girls can step across three stakes, showing the rudiments of light body kung fu. Among the girls, the fastest progress is the captain of the two teams, Zi Su Ye and Lu Yuyi, especially Shi Su Ye, whose mental cultivation skills far exceed those of his peers, and he is occasionally unstable under his feet, and he is not quite flustered like other girls, but his body is emotionally immovable, and his spirit is close to the realm of "immovable as a mountain". Rick secretly wondered, although he knew that Shiso Ye was very talented, but in such a short period of time, according to common sense, there should not be such great progress. He hurriedly asked Chrissy, who was walking towards him at the moment, and Chrissy smiled, "You'd better ask Ling'er, she knows." Rick hurriedly asked Ao Ling'er, but Ao Ling'er didn't want to hang his appetite, and told him about the process of accidentally seeing Shiso Ye sneak into the backyard and meet Ada. When Rick heard this, he patted his head and blamed himself, "I actually forgot about her." I really don't know what to do with her. I can't let it go, it's not good to keep it closed all the time, what should I do? The last sentence was for Chrissy.

Chrissy frowned slightly and said, "We'd better ask her for her own opinion." Whatever we think, we need her cooperation. ”

Rick thought about it, and as soon as the topic changed, he roughly talked about his trip to the palace, and finally described the strange appearance of the court maid named Zhaoxian, and then asked, "How can a woman become like that?" ”

Chrissy thought about it for a long time to no avail, when Alva came over and threw the question at her. After hearing this, Alva's face changed slightly, but she didn't seem to be sure, and hurriedly beckoned Qinglu, Caifeng and several other nearby guards to come over, and several people discussed carefully with Chrissy for a while, and after a while, they pulled Rick and asked Zhaoxian carefully, and even asked the reason why Rick met her, and even the feeling when Rick pinched her chest did not let go. At the end, Alva said worriedly, "It's probably phantom beast blood." ”

Rick asked confusedly, "What is phantom beast blood?" ”

"Phantom beast blood is a flickering bloodline in legends, its history is unknown, and it is extremely rare. The reason why it is called 'Phantom Beast Blood' is because it represents a strange transformation power that the human race can have, and whether it is related to 'Phantom Beast' or not, no one has verified. It is said that a person with the bloodline of a phantom beast has a huge power lurking in her body, and this power can only be used by herself under the guidance of the correct method, if she is not guided or guided by the correct method at a certain age, the power will backfire on her body, and the result is rapid aging and inhuman form.
