When Emma saw Rick, she took the boy's little hand and ran to Rick, and called out sweetly, "Brother Rick." ”

The boy looked at Rick curiously, but when he saw that Emma's other hand was already holding Rick, he immediately called out obediently, "Brother Rick." ”

At this time, Fiya Kaidi also came closer.

Rick touched the boy's head, looked up at Fia Cady, and asked softly, "Are you still used to living here?" ”

"The sisters here treat me very well, thank you." Fia Cady nodded, and although her eyes were full of gratitude, Rick saw a trace of sadness in her eyes.

Rick sighed and said, "The past should be forgotten as a passing wind!" ”

Fiya Kaidi's eyes quickly dimmed, she glanced down at the boy, and when she raised her head again, her gaze was already full of determination, "Call me Hua Yufei in the future, this is my real name."

"Hua Yufei." Rick smiled with relief.

Although Fiya Cady didn't say it, Rick already knew that since she said "Hua Yufei", she said that she had decided to forget the past and start a new life.

Looking at Fia Cady's relieved smile, Rick couldn't help but think back to the situation a few days ago.

As soon as he arrived at the palace of the Duke of Permon with the army that day, Emma, who had been waiting for a long time, threw herself into his arms and begged him to save her brother's life with tears in her eyes. After careful questioning, he realized that before he returned, the commander of the Leopard Shadow Legion, who led the troops to quell the turmoil in the Blue City, had successfully quelled the chaos in the Blue City, and escorted many rebels and their families back to Bo Yingte.

When the Leopard Shadow Legion escorted a group of people to Queen's Road, Emma happened to be passing by and unexpectedly found it. His long-lost brother Xue Xiaolong. He was also among those who were escorted. Later, she inquired about the location of his detention through the forces of the Duke's Palace. At the same time, he learned that there was a girl in a cage with him, that is, Fiya Kaidi. She also learned that Xue Xiaolong's identity at this time was actually Warney Caddy, the righteous son of the rebel Pat Cady. After Orson recaptured the Blue City from the rebels, it was soon confirmed that Pat Kedi, the richest man in the Blue City, was one of the initiators of the rebellion, and because his people had been killed by the rebels when the Leopard Shadow Legion entered the city, Warney Kaidi and Fia Kaidi, as family members, were immediately arrested and escorted to Bo Yingte.

Emma, who was originally ecstatic to see her brother again, learned from Qin Xin that the act of rebellion in the empire was going to punish the nine clans. I was so sad that I could barely speak. The crowd had to comfort her, and when Rick returned to plead with the queen, her brother would be saved. Seeing hope, Emma begins to anxiously wait for Rick to come back to rescue her brother.

When Rick learns of this, he immediately goes to the palace to meet the queen, hoping that she will be able to open up. This was not a big deal for the queen, so she gave him a favor and pardoned Xue Xiaolong and Fiya Kaidi at the moment.

Rick had been settling Xue Xiaolong and Fiya Cady in the Duke's Mansion for three days, but he hadn't had time to comfort them. Xue Xiaolong is still just an ignorant and unknown child. Now that he is meeting his sister who depends on him for his life, infinite joy has almost filled his little heart. So there's nothing to worry about. It's Fiya Cady, he knows that she must have left a big shadow in her heart after this change.

Although he hadn't had much contact with her in the past few days, and he didn't even have a good impression of her, when he saw her, he still felt guilty because he hadn't given her any comfort or help. However, Fiya Kaidi, who is weak on the outside, is strong on the inside, but he is not expected.

Rick relaxed slightly, and couldn't help but think of Rosie and Shiso Leaf. They are strong children, too! He decided to visit the seriously injured Rosie and Shiso Ye first, and then go to Qin Xin to apologize.

After making up his mind, he kissed Emma's little face and said softly: "Brother still has something to do, Zhizhi will take his younger brother and Feiya...... Oh no, Sister Yufei is playing around. ”

Emma responded obediently, and then pulled Xue Xiaolong and Hua Yufei and walked away. Seeing them go away, Rick turned around and headed straight for Rosie and Shisoleaf's residence.

After learning from the mouth of the four phoenix servants that after he left, the mansion was attacked and suffered heavy losses, and Rosie and Shiso Ye were seriously injured, Rick was very angry.

Before he returned to Bo Ying, Grand Duke Singo, the leader of the Tianluo Sect, Otulu, and the Nine Gate Admiral Bandorf and other cadres had been wiped out by the palace guards, and his power in Bo Yingte had completely collapsed.

Alas, the families of the two cronies, such as the Grand Duke Singo, the Admiral of the Nine Gates, Bandorf, and Treya, were killed by the queen's order yesterday because they colluded with Otulu, the leader of the Tianluo Sect who infiltrated Boying, to collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, otherwise he could have personally corrected the law to avenge the casualties in the palace! Rick thought a little afterthought.

Under the careful care of Long Lan, Ida and others, Rosie and Shiso Ye's injuries gradually improved. Now Shiso Ye has been able to get out of bed and walk around, and Rosie has basically returned to normal, except that her body is still a little weak. Seeing that the enemy had been subdued, and that the two were fine, Rick's anger calmed down slightly. But the two of them suffered this catastrophe at such a young age, and Rick couldn't help but be concerned about their recovery.

Especially Rosie, Rick became even more reticent when he heard about her. According to Long Lan, she was like this, mostly because of that strange beast egg. Thinking of Tang Zhaoxian's advice, in the past few days, Rick has also persuaded her to give up continuing to hatch beast eggs, but her attitude is extremely resolute. Everyone tried to forcibly take the egg, but it seemed to grow on her body, and it did not move a bit, and the Nymph Divine Guard tried all his means in vain. Thinking of this, Rick's worries were even worse, but there was nothing he could do.

At this moment, before Rick entered the courtyard where Rosie and Shiso Ye were, he was stopped by Farley, saying that there was a distinguished guest. Seeing her rush look, Rick knew that it would not be easy for someone to come, and immediately followed her towards the living room. Along the way, he even asked who it was, but Farri was secretive and refused to say anything, which made Rick wonder.

After entering the living room, he finally saw the visitors who were dominating and sitting firmly on the main seat, and Rick suddenly felt bad in his heart. The person who came was none other than the Duchess of the Mei family. Mei Xing'er stood beside her, and when she saw Rick, a rare floating cloud floated on her face, and then she quickly looked away and lowered her head.

Rick saw Mei Xing'er's sudden appearance of a little woman's shy demeanor, and shouted in his heart My mother! Mei Xing'er's unusual look made him immediately link it with the conspiracy. This little girl is so pretentious, she must not be at ease. He finally understood why Farri wouldn't say anything along the way, this old and young man was indeed difficult to deal with.

Farley quietly pushed him behind him, and Rick sighed inwardly, and said, "Little nephew Xia Hua, see the Duchess." ”

The Duchess's kind face was full of smiles, and she beckoned to Rick, "Come to me." ”

Seeing the Duchess's kind face, Rick breathed a sigh of relief and walked carefully in front of her.

The Duchess looked Rick up and down, and said distressedly: "This child, I haven't seen him for a few months, and he has lost so much weight." You must have suffered a lot outside, right? ”

Rick was horrified by her, and thought she knew he was an impostor. After hearing the meaning of the other party's words, he put his mind at ease, and at the same time felt a wave of emotion in his heart. The Duchess's warm words reminded him of his childhood when he was a child under his mother's knees. ”

He gave the Duchess a warm smile back and said softly, "You bothered, the little nephew is very good, and he didn't suffer much." ”

The smile on the Duchess's face quickly expanded, obviously very satisfied with Rick's attitude at the moment, she took Rick's hand affectionately, and said with a smile: "I just found out now that you are very much like your brother, just as sensible and capable. Xing'er will be handed over to you, and I will be relieved. ”

"But......" The warmth receded quickly like a tide, and Rick was secretly shocked, he didn't expect the Duchess to bring up the old things again, he glanced at Mei Xing'er who was standing beside the Duchess, Mei Xing'er was wearing a jade collar at the moment, looking at him with a shy face, as if expecting him to give a positive answer. Conspiracy, definitely conspiracy! Little Nizi, how did I offend you, why did you hurt me like this? Rick lamented in his heart, but he didn't know how to deal with the Duchess this time.

"Asking you to marry Xing'er, is it your life? Do you know that the people who proposed to her are about to break the threshold of Meifu, why has it become so difficult for you to come here? Before Rick could say anything, the Duchess sighed with a straight face.

"No...... It's not like that, I'm ......"

Mei Xing'er's expression was already gloomy at the moment, and she was dripping.

Farri behind Rick gave him a fierce look, as if to blame him for not being able to eat and understand the amorous feelings. Even Rick himself has to decide that his rejection of her is simply a matter of intolerable nature. But the more this is the case, the more Rick thinks Mei Xing'er is hateful. He decided that Mei Xing'er was taking revenge on him for his predecessor, the real Xia Hua's refusal to marry, and making her lose face. In order to retaliate, this little girl is willing to spend such a large amount of money, which is really vicious.

"It's done, it's done, it's done! The queen has given marriage, do you want to resist the decree? The Duchess could not say anything more, and waved him off.

While speaking, the Duchess got up and said goodbye with Mei Xing'er's support.

When they went out, Rick faintly heard the Duchess say to Mei Xing'er: "I've seen enough, you can rest assured that you can wait at home for this child to propose!" (To be continued......)
