Compared to what the girl once paid, what are the little things he is doing now?

After she left, the "loyal ministers" who had been pestering him to avenge his father also disappeared. The girl had once again protected him by his actions.

Eight years ago, after the death of Emperor Taizu, all news of that girl was cut off. At that time, there were many fewer people around him overnight, and he finally understood that she was actually protecting him no matter where he was.

Until she's really gone.

He was not in the slightest blood relationship with the girl, who was only ten years older than him, but she took care of him for eight whole years from the time he was born.

It was she who told him with her actions what benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and purity are.

Relying on the moonlight hidden in his heart since he was a child, he did not grow into a hateful person under the malicious indoctrination of the people around him.

If she can do this to a person who is not related to blood, why would he fight with his sister?

On the battle platform of Nan Chuji's School Palace, Ying Xun raised his head and calmly looked at the restless people around him and the examiners whose patience seemed to be about to reach the limit.

"Former Qin stepson! A quarter of an hour at most! End the battle quickly! The examiner shouted.

"How's your rest?" Ying Xun looked down at Ying Baoyue on her lap, "Don't listen to him, the eight-person battle is not limited, and I can delay it for a while." ”

"A quarter of an hour should be enough, and if you drag it out any longer......" Ying Baoyue looked at the other cultivators in the audience with expressions that couldn't be explained, "If we drag it out any longer, someone is really going to drive us down." ”

"That's good, but it really takes time and you don't need to be polite, since you have achieved this level, your brother is ready to be shameless." Ying Xun is a serious way.

Ying Baoyue took a deep breath, she still wanted to say something, Ying Xun reached out and covered her eyes, "It's the last quarter of an hour, this time is not easy to come by, you can rest well." ”

Ying hugged the moon's lips and moved, and finally closed her eyes.

Feeling the slight itch brought by the girl's eyelashes to the palm, Ying Xun quietly looked at the back of her hand.

He had to cover her eyes, and looking at those eyes, he always had the illusion that he shouldn't have.

It was an extremely short and extremely long quarter of an hour.

A quarter of an hour later, a moment before the examiner angrily walked onto the stage, Ying Baoyue opened her eyes.

"Are you alright?" Ying Xun asked.

"Hmm," she nodded.

Feeling that the breath on Ying Baoyue's body had indeed calmed down, and her cheeks had recovered a trace of blood, Ying Xun breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to help her up.

The examiner, who walked up to the stage and was about to have a seizure, looked at the two people who were facing each other again, and was stunned, and then retreated to the edge.

The loud crowd around them also stopped, staring at the two people on the stage with wide eyes.

"How? Are these two finally going to fight? ”

Ying Xun reached out and grabbed the long sword inserted in the crack of the stone slab on the ground, and the audience cheered again.

However, the boy only quietly brushed the spike on the hilt.

"This spike ......," Ying Baoyue looked at him and paused.

"I lost it once when I was a kid," Ying Xun said with a smile and looked at her, "but my father picked it up for me." ”

Ying Baoyue was stunned when she heard this.

A complicated smile appeared at the corner of Ying Xun's mouth.

On the night of her last birthday with him, after driving her away, he drove away all the palace people who came to coax him, and squatted in the corner alone.

And at this time, a voice came from beside him, "Don't you want this sword spike?" ”

He turned his head and looked at the tall figure and said in surprise, "Dad? ”

"Give it to me if you don't want it," the man behind him crossed his long arm over his shoulder, picking up the sword spike he had thrown in the corner, "You don't know how hard it is for her subordinates to want one, it's worth a lot of money to sell it or give it to others." ”

"Sell...... Sell?! His eyes widened, stretched out his little arms and legs and jumped to grab them, "Don't sell it, don't give it to others!" It's ......"

"What? Didn't you say you didn't want her stuff? And looking at his appearance, the expression of the man in front of him suddenly turned cold.

"I, I was angry for a while, they all said she was ......," he defended himself.

"They? Who are they? The man in front of him lowered his head and looked at him fixedly, "As a child of the royal family, I won't listen to my own judgment, and it's useless to ask for these ears, so it's better to cut them off." ”

"Daddy......" The young man was so frightened that he covered his ears violently, and looked at the man in front of him in amazement.

"I'll ask you one last time, do you want it or not," the tall man looked at the sword spike in his hand and looked at him quietly, "If you can't cherish the kindness of others, you might as well stay away." ”

"Don't see her again until you can't talk properly."

"I ......" He looked at the sword spike in the man's hand and was speechless, although he was angry, he didn't want to see her again......

"Dad, I'm just ......," he muttered, but the man in front of him looked calm.

"As I said, it has nothing to do with her. I'm sorry for your mother, and I'm the one who wants to marry her," his father looked at him quietly, "I'm the one you want to hate, not her." She's been involved by me, and she doesn't need to care about you. ”

"So you are the one who is at fault for today's events."

The tall man looked at him quietly, "If you don't even have the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, you will only harm more people in the future as a royal child." ”

"I won't allow anyone to take advantage of her tenderness, including you."

He stared at his father with wide eyes, and finally reached for the spike in his hand.

"Figured it out?" The man asked.

He nodded, then heard the man in front of him say, "Then swear by it." ”

Swear.

Ying Xun let go of the sword spike in his hand and looked at Ying Baoyue on the battle platform.

"Didn't you ask me if I hated my mother?"

Ying Baoyue, who was about to draw her sword, was stunned when she heard the words and looked up at him.

"My father made me swear that I would never harm her for the rest of my life. No matter what happens, don't hate her. He said quietly.

Ying Baoyue's heartbeat stopped for a moment.

That man......

The next moment, she pulled out her sword and looked at Ying Xun with a complicated expression, "Cousin......"

Ying Xun raised the sword in his hand, and the two of them faced each other.

"I don't mean anything else by telling you this," Ying Xun looked at Ying Baoyue and said, "It's just that someone has protected me so much, and let me protect the person I can protect once." ”

It's his turn to protect her.

The next moment, under everyone's gaze, Ying Xun let go of his hand.

The sword in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp thud.

"Former Qin stepson Ying Xun admits defeat," he looked at the examiner who was standing on the side, "My lord, ring the bell." ”

The people in the audience looked at each other, and Ying Baoyue looked at the person in front of him in a daze, "You ......"

"I know you're always going to be upset," Ying Xun looked at her, "That's it, in the mid-level ceremony, I'll let you come back, and you will take me three more moves, is this acceptable?" ”

It is too difficult to convince her, and Ying Xun is helpless in her heart.

You must know that three moves in the master battle are enough for one life.

Ying Baoyue took a deep breath and nodded, "Okay." ”

Ying Xun finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the examiner quietly, "My lord? ”

"You, you, the former Qin stepson, have you thought about it?" The examiner's eyes widened.

"Think about it, if you don't ring this bell again, I'll ring it myself," Ying Xun said coldly.

The examiner took a deep breath and finally lifted the hammer in desperation.

The bell rang at the end of the high platform, and there was a dead silence in the audience, and the next moment suddenly broke out into a huge noise.

"Top four, Qianqin, win the moon!"

It's just that at this moment, in the last round of the Southern Chu Beginner Ceremony, he was the first to rank among the top four cultivators.

It was born.
