After Li Xi, the king of Liang, committed suicide in fear of crime, the Hedong army was ordered by the prince to return to Taiyuan Mansion.

The next day, the crown prince Li Yan, together with the crown princess and the accompanying officials, asked to see the eldest princess of Pingyang outside the Qifeng Valley.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince arrived, and the disciples of the Seven Phoenix Valley all lined up to greet him.

Chi Tang saw the stunning beauty in red in the crowd at a glance, and smiled happily at her.

is worthy of her beautiful Uncle Zhu, who is the most dazzling one wherever she stands!

Zhu Xian also smiled at her, then glanced behind her, and then turned his gaze away as if nothing happened.

At this time, a disciple beside Zhu Xian saluted respectfully: "The family teacher invites the prince and the princess to meet!" ”

Chi Tang was stunned.

Didn't invite Daddy?

Glancing back at my father.

Chi Changting just smiled and nodded at her, looking not surprised or concerned.

Chi Tang had no choice but to follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in first.

It was the middle of winter, and the snow in the valley had not melted, pressing the bald branches and withered grass, and from a distance, it was like a flower blooming.

It wasn't until I smelled the fragrance that I found a white plum tree hidden in the snow branches.

It wasn't until the disciple who led the way bowed down and called "Master" that he was surprised to find a person standing under the tree.

Plain clothes like snow, his face was cold, and his eyes swept slightly, which made Chi Tang unconsciously straighten his back, and his heart was secretly shocked.

The majesty of this princess is really rare.

How could such a person teach Uncle Zhu such a temperament?

Li Yan squeezed her hand soothingly, and gave a junior salute to the eldest princess of Pingyang, calling her "aunt".

The eldest princess of Pingyang bowed back to him with a faint expression, her eyes fell on Chi Tang again, she smiled slightly, and her attitude suddenly became gentle: "The crown princess's nickname is called Tang Tang?" ”

Chi Tang nodded embarrassedly.

In fact, she is called anything, and she has no nickname.

I like to call Tang Tang Uncle Zhu and Uncle He.

"Ah Xian often mentions you to me," the eldest princess of Pingyang said with a smile, "She said that you were very righteous, she was in prison back then, and you deliberately ransomed her as your own property—"

Chi Tang's face froze, and he cautiously glanced at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince beside him.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's eyes turned and he also glanced at her, the corners of his lips moved slightly, and he seemed to smile.

Chi Tang blushed and coughed lightly, and said, "It is also the acquiescence of His Highness......"

The eldest princess of Pingyang said with a smile: "Last year in Lishan, Ah Xian was also taken care of by you——"

"No, no, it's all Uncle Zhu who takes care of me! Uncle Zhu also sacrificed his life to save me! ”

"This time, you sent troops to rescue—"

"His Royal Highness has also transferred troops...... "Chi Tang didn't know that he still had so many points to be thanked.

The eldest princess of Pingyang glanced at Li Yan and said with a slight smile: "The prince is here to save me, you are to save Qifeng Valley, I should thank you on behalf of Qifeng Valley!" ”

After that, he really bowed to Chi Tang and bowed down.

As soon as she bowed, the surrounding disciples also bowed together.

How dare Chi Tang accept her courtesy, he hurriedly hid behind Li Yan and said, "My father is also a disciple of Qifeng Valley, I am a junior, these are what I should do!" With that, he glanced at the eldest princess of Pingyang hintly.

Isn't it time to invite Daddy in?

The eldest princess of Pingyang just smiled and said, "Tang Tang came to Qifeng Valley for the first time, let the uncles take you around to play, and I will say a few words to the prince alone, how about it?" ”

Chi Tang looked at Li Yan instructively.

Li Yan brushed the falling snow on her shoulders and said softly, "Don't be tired of playing." ”

Chi Tang bent his eyes and nodded, took Zhu Xian's hand and left.

The eldest princess of Pingyang looked at her departing figure for a while, and said with a smile: "This group is childish, I really can't see that I am the one who wants to be the queen." ”

Li Yan said lightly: "If you can't see it, it doesn't mean that you can't do it, and no one must have seen that my aunt could command the Xuanjia Army back then." ”

The eldest princess of Pingyang smiled and said, "What Your Highness said is that this is prejudice. ”

……

"How did you get here? Your father and the crown prince have fought a battle? Has King Liang been arrested? Are you going back to Beijing next? ......" Zhu Xian asked all the way.

Chi Tang was a little absent-minded, still thinking about his father who was stopped outside the valley.

After walking a distance, he couldn't help but pull Zhu Xian's hand and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Zhu, my father-"

"Ah Tang!" Before he could say anything, he was interrupted.

Chi Tang looked up and saw his father Lang Lang standing in the mountain path, with a purple robe and black clothes, lined with silver wrapped in the surroundings, looking particularly graceful and elegant.

"Daddy!" Chi Tang happily pulled Zhu Xian and ran over, "Why did you come in?" ”

Chi Changting smiled: "I'm also a disciple of Seven Phoenix Valley, why can't I come in?" ”

When Chi Tang thought about it, it seemed that it was also ...... It's just that the eldest princess of Pingyang didn't invite her father to meet, and she didn't stop him from coming in.

After greeting his daughter, Chi Changting raised his eyes and smiled at Zhu Xian, and said, "Senior Sister Zhu, don't come to harm?" ”

The expression is warm and natural, just like the caring greeting between ordinary brothers and sisters.

Zhu Xian was more cold and reserved, only nodded slightly, and said, "Thanks to the blessing of senior brother, it is okay!" ”

When he spoke, his cheeks were like peach blossoms, delicate and delicate.

Chi Tang looked at this, then at that, and felt that he was going to go out: "Daddy, the eldest princess asked the uncles to take me around to play, do you want to be together?" ”

Hearing her say this, Zhu Xian's face turned even redder.

Chi Changting smiled normally and said, "No need—"

Chi Tang didn't expect his father to refuse ruthlessly, and looked at him in astonishment.

Chi Changting took his daughter's other hand, smiled at Zhu Xian and the other disciples and nodded: "I'll take the little girl to see her ancestor first, and you will be at your own convenience." ”

Chi Tang was about to ask Zhu Xian if she wanted to go with her, but the beauty let go of her hand with a cold and arrogant face, took the lead and turned away.

Chi Changting smiled slightly, and led his daughter in the other direction.

Chi Tang looked back frequently, and said worriedly: "Daddy, you are so cold, Uncle Zhu is angry!" ”

"No," Chi Changting smiled, "she's shy." ”

"Could it be annoyance?"

"Hmm...... It's possible ......"

……

"This is your ancestor!" Chi Changting pointed casually, and Gu Zi sat down, his attitude was a little casual.

Chi Tang is a good boy, so he won't be as casual as him.

As soon as his face is straight, and his knees are bent, he will make a big salute -

"No, no, no!" The blue-clothed ancestor on the opposite side raised his hand and didn't touch her, and Chi Tang felt that he couldn't kneel.

"Kneeling and worshipping like this, it seems that I am very old," Shizu said with a smile, "Don't call Shizu, call me Brother Lan!" ”

This...... Excessive, right?

Chi Tang looked at his father pleadingly.

"Are you trying to call me Daddy?" Chi Changting said lightly.

Shi Zu's smile froze, and then he said angrily: "What bastard words are you saying in front of the child!" Do you understand the respect for teachers? ”

Chi Changting glanced at him coldly, turned to his daughter and explained: "It's okay if you don't call your ancestor, my father didn't apprentice back then, it was this person who cried and shouted and begged me to learn martial arts, at most, he had a long-term job in the Chi family." ”

Chi Tang looked at the ancestor who was so angry that he couldn't speak, and felt that it was not easy to accept his father as an apprentice, so he smiled at him, bowed down, and called sweetly: "Ancestor!" ”

The ancestor suddenly turned his anger into joy, stepped forward to help her with his own hand, and was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth: "This kid ...... That's good! It's so different from your dad! Ouch, and dimples, cute and cute! Your dad doesn't have ......."

Chi Tang saw that his words were amiable, so he smiled and talked to him.

"Master Ancestor is old this year?"

"Not tall, not high, guess?"

"Fifty?"

"I look so old?" The smile on Shi Zu's face suddenly disappeared.

"No, no, no!" Chi Tang hurriedly explained, "Because my father is thirty-three, my ancestor can teach my father martial arts, and he is always older than him, right?" ”

Shi Zu's face turned pale, and he asked, "Then how old do you think I look?" ”

Chi Tang pondered for a moment and said, "It looks like twenty or thirty!" ”

Chi Changting, who was drinking tea silently, couldn't help but sneer and said, "You really dare to say it!" This old man is sixty years old! ”

Shi Zu was furious: "How can I have sixty? I'm only fifty-eight! ”

"Fifty-eight?!" Chi Tang was shocked, "Impossible! I can't see it at all! ”

Shizu turned his anger into joy again: "You kid, haha, it's really sweet, much better than your father, hahaha......"

Chi Tang grinned and said, "It's not!" My dad is amazing! Otherwise, why did the master take in a disciple of my father! At first glance, the master is a person with a high vision! ”

When he was outside the Seven Phoenix Valley before, Chi Tang had noticed this man in blue who couldn't tell his age.

At that time, I didn't know that it was Shizu, but I saw that everyone else was a pile of senior brothers and sisters, so he stood alone.

Chi Tang also wondered how this branch confiscated the disciples, and it turned out that only one of her father was accepted.

"That's it!" Shizu was quite helpful to her words, "I didn't want to accept apprentices, you think!" If you accept an apprentice, you have to dangle in front of your eyes every day, so you can't look good? Also, the apprentice's qualifications can't be bad, how can I say it twice? What should I do if I can't get started after teaching for ten days and half a month? Is it a shame to go out and beat your brother and brother? So, I've lived for more than 50 years, and there are only three people who can get into my eyes! ”

These words made Chi Tang unconvinced: "Who else is there besides my father?" ”

Shi Zu suddenly showed a suffocating look: "There is another one is a small string string——"

"Who's Little String?" Chi Tang didn't react.

"It's the one that looks the most beautiful in Qifeng Valley!"

"Uncle Zhu!" Chi Tang suddenly became happy again, "Uncle Zhu is naturally powerful, Uncle Zhu is still the first in several generations!" ”

"Yes, yes!" Shizu was also very happy to hear her approval, "I like the little string string at a glance, she is good-looking and talented, but it's a pity that she can't snatch her master, hey...... At the age of eighteen, he is the number one master of the fifth generation, but it's a pity that ......"

Chi Tang hurriedly comforted: "It's a pity, don't you still have my father?" ”

The master ancestor glanced at Chi Changting and whispered to Chi Tang: "Why don't you let your father come to participate in the fifth generation disciple competition of Qifeng Valley next fall?" ”

Chi Tang also glanced at his father and whispered, "This is too boring, isn't it?" ”

Shi Zu immediately showed regret.

Chi Tang thought for a while, and comforted: "But Uncle Zhu definitely can't beat my father, they have fought several times, and Uncle Zhu has never won!" ”

Shi Zu glanced at Chi Changting in surprise: "Xiao Xianxian is so beautiful, your father can do it?" ”

Chi Tang thought for a while and said, "In terms of beauty, my father is not inferior to Uncle Zhu." ”

Shizu was stunned and laughed.

Chi Tang didn't have the heart to laugh, and asked urgingly, "What about the other one?" Besides my father and Uncle Zhu, who else? ”

"There is another ......" Shizu suddenly looked melancholy, shook his head and sighed, "There is another one that doesn't mention it......"

How can you not mention it?

"Let's mention it!" Chi Tang was so curious, "Is there another one who is as good-looking as my father and Uncle Zhu?" ”

The ancestor sighed faintly and said, "That's naturally good-looking, can I take a fancy if it's not good-looking?" He's so young, those eyes, hey, they can deceive people......"

"How do you deceive people?" Chi Tang asked.

"He just looks like a good boy, but he actually has a bad stomach!" Shizu was a little angry, "It's completely the opposite of your father, your father looked like a bad boy when he was a child, but he learned martial arts just to climb over the wall to peek at the little girl next door, that kid looks obedient, but he thinks about killing people every day!" ”

Chi Tang's eyes widened in shock: "My dad climbed over the wall to peek at the little girl? Are you sure? He-"

"Ahem...... Chi Changting interrupted Chi Tang's words with a dry cough a few times, and forcibly changed the topic, "So you took in a murderous apprentice?" Is this injury to his fault? ”

Shi Zu sighed and said, "He was chased and killed, I can't ignore him, but I was injured, and he ran away without a word, it's not a thing-"

"How can there be such a person!" Chi Tang was furious when he heard this, "This is ingratitude!" Deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors! Master, you report his name! Let my dad clean the portal for you! ”

Chi Changting, who was named, sneered: "Eighty percent of him covets other people's good qualifications, and he wants to teach others martial arts, and others have not apprenticed, nor have they begged him to save him, what kind of ingratitude, bullying teachers and destroying ancestors?" ”

Shi Zu coughed twice in embarrassment, and said, "You don't know, that kid's qualifications are really good, and I will comprehend the internal strength of the mind method after reading it once——"

"My dad asked you to read it a second time?" Chi Tang was not convinced.

"That's not true," Shizu shook his head and said, "I mean, can I not be impressed by such qualifications?" And when I met him, he had no father or mother, and he was alone, so I thought that this apprentice must be mine! I didn't expect that kid to be a ghost at a young age, and he just refused to apprentice to a teacher! ”

I couldn't help but sigh again: "Little conscienceless!" A child without a father and a mother, I am so good to him, he is not even touched at all! ”

Chi Tang was slightly stunned and asked, "Is he very small?" ”

From the description of the ancestor, she seemed to see a young man who was a genius but had an unfortunate background, withdrawn, gloomy, and extremely intelligent.

It's really a bit pitiful for a fatherless and motherless child to be hunted down and killed......

"I was about ten years old when I met him in Wuxing, and now I ......" Shizu looked at Chi Tang twice, "Anyway, it's older than you!" ”

Chi Tang's sympathy disappeared half of a sudden: "He is from Wuxing? ”

Wu Xing was not a pleasant enemy to Chi Tang.

Shizu shook his head: "No, it's from Jiangdu." ”

"Jiangdu people?" Chi Changting suddenly put down the teacup and looked over, his eyes were gloomy, "What's it called?" ”

The ancestor didn't notice anything wrong, and replied: "Jiangdu Qin Qi, named Qin Gui. ”
