Volume 2, Swallowing Mountains and Rivers Chapter 72 The Imperial Family

Li Qianqian deliberately let everyone visit the Li family, and did not arrive at the reception hall until half an hour later.

At this moment, there were already several figures sitting in the hall. Li Qianqian led everyone in, and they got up one after another.

"I've finally waited for you all. A man smiled and spoke, his tone a little helpless. He looked very young, wearing a blue robe, holding a golden paper fan in his hand, and exuding a gentle and elegant temperament all over his body. He was none other than Zhao Yuan from the Zhao family, who was also a student in the Imperial Academy like Sun Jiu.

"Didn't I read it wrong? Zhao Yuan, who is known as a habit of being late, actually arrived so early?"

Sun Jiu was the first to speak up, and she said in a joking tone: "No wonder I didn't meet you on the way here, I actually arrived at Li's house early." ”

"Sun Jiu, don't make fun of me. ”

A helpless look appeared on Zhao Yuan's face, and he said with a wry smile: "Do you think I look like such a positive person? I just wanted to hide from a tigress, so I came to the Li Mansion early to avoid the limelight." ”

Hearing his words, everyone couldn't help but feel some curiosity. Zhao Yuan is a leader of the younger generation cultivated by the Zhao Mansion, and he is also a well-known demon-level figure in the imperial capital, who else can make him have to leave home early to avoid the limelight?

"Tigress?"

Li Qianqian also couldn't help but wonder, if that big man knew that Zhao Yuan called her like this, I am afraid that most of the imperial capital would be angry and would cry and jump.

"Zhao Yuan, you are getting bolder. Sun Jiu smiled knowingly, guessed that it was that character and didn't say it, looking at his embarrassed face, he couldn't hold back his pretty face.

Zhao Yuan shook his head, sighed, and didn't say much. He noticed Liu Yang next to Sun Jiu, and a hint of surprise appeared in the depths of his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

When everyone came into the hall, he smiled slightly and said, "Let's come early and taste a lot of good tea and water from Miss Li's house, so you can sit down and taste it." ”

"I've heard a lot of good tea in the Li Mansion for a long time, and I have to try it today. A man laughed, without any politeness.

"When you come, you should treat it as if this is your home, don't be polite. Li Qianqian's voice is like a warbler's cry, crisp and pleasant, which makes people feel very kind when they listen to it.

"Sit. ”

"Please"

......

Everyone sat down, and while they were talking, there were neatly dressed subordinates who served tea and pastries, obviously making some preparations.

"Hundreds of years of oolong tea is really good tea. ”

Someone picked up the teacup and couldn't help muttering. Tea leaves of these years are already very precious, and even tea ceremony lovers are willing to pay thousands of dollars to buy them, and even the children of the powerful are reluctant to buy these famous teas on weekdays. I didn't expect the Li family to entertain them with such treasures, which shows that they are full of skill.

"The tea was really good. Feng Dao nodded, although he was a martial arts maniac, he usually enjoyed life more than more people. He smiled and said to Li Qianqian: "There are a lot of tea leaves in the city that are fifty or sixty years old, but there are almost no tea leaves for hundreds of years, where did Miss Li buy them?"

"Can't you see that Brother Feng actually likes tea so much?" Zhao Yuan put down the teacup and couldn't help but laugh softly when he looked at the former.

"My father loved tea, so he wanted to give him a taste. ”

Hearing this, Li Qianqian's eyes flowed. After pondering for a moment, he said slowly: "Later, I will ask someone to send some tea to Brother Feng, and you will have to go to trouble to save it." ”

"Thank you, Miss Li, but I'm disrespectful. Feng Dao arched his hand and thanked him politely. He was originally from the Feng family, and his side line was not as prominent as other people, and his parents did not have much power, so he accepted this favor like this.

After a while, everyone relaxed after tasting the tea. Seeing that the timing was just right, Li Qianqian slowly spoke: "It is an honor for our Li family that everyone is invited to come today. ”

"Please come over mainly to visit the fragments of the Emperor's Sutra together, if you can have any gains, please be able to share the harvest with my Li family. ”

"This is natural, the Li family gave me such a good opportunity, and if there is a harvest, of course I will share it. ”

Echoing the words was a young man named Haoyang, his eyes were bright, his blonde hair was very wild, and his tall and strong body made people know that his physique was extremely powerful at a glance.

"Miss Li, don't worry, we are measured. ”

"I'm afraid that I won't be able to understand any mysteries, so don't blame me when Miss Li comes!"

......

Some people nodded in praise, and some joked haha. Everyone is not stupid, and the Li family agreed to let them participate in the fragments of the Emperor's Sutra this time, so they naturally wanted to know the mystery. Both sides are just swapping things like business.

Liu Yang was silent, the main reason why he came to the Li Mansion this time was to try the swordsmanship that Li Qianqian used last time.

"Feng Tiegun, you drink and take, and you have to make more efforts to come out later. Sun Jiuwan smiled and couldn't help but joke.

"This ...... I'm absolutely giving it my all. "Even if Feng Dao is confident in his talent, but what is the Ancient Emperor Sutra? Even some supreme powers are difficult to comprehend, let alone a character like him.

While everyone was chatting, a subordinate came into the door in a panic. He said to Li Qianqian: "Miss, someone from the imperial palace is here." ”

"Imperial Palace?"

"Could it be royalty!"

Hearing the news, everyone got up. Their faces were a little surprised, the people in the imperial palace generally did not easily contact people outside the palace, how could they come to the Li family.

Hear the words. Li Qianqian didn't have much surprise, but she looked at Zhao Yuan and said softly: "Zhao Gongzi, shouldn't I be looking for you to find here?"

On the side, Sun Jiu also stared at Zhao Yuan with a smiling expression.

Zhao Yuan's face was like ashes, and he regretted it in his heart. He smiled awkwardly, unnaturally in his smile. said, "Perhaps." ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's go and meet the people in the palace. With that, Li Qianqian led everyone to walk outside.

"No need. ”

A cold voice sounded, and I saw a bunch of figures walking in the distance outside the hall. Even though they were far away, they could still feel the powerful and terrifying qi fluctuations coming from this group of people.

Liu Yang stood behind everyone, a hint of surprise in his eyes. The person who came did not restrain his own qi, if he was ordinary, it might be normal, but it was a bit rude to come to the big family's mansion as a guest.

As he pondered, six figures had entered the hall. The leader was a woman, who fell on Zhao Yuan with a fire-breathing gaze as soon as she entered the hall.

"See the Ten Princesses. ”

Li Qianqian took the lead in saluting, the person in front of her was not an ordinary person, but the tenth daughter of Emperor Qian, named Shangguan Hui, because she had not yet reached the age of eighteen, so she did not have a title. People other than the imperial family are naturally called the ten princesses in order.

"Why are you here?"

Zhao Yuan's face turned a little pale, and he didn't expect that this person would really chase after the Li Mansion. His head was a little big, and he originally thought that he could avoid this crazy woman by leaving the house early, but he didn't expect to leak his traces.

"How am I here?"

Shangguan Hui glanced at him, and said in a very unkind tone: "Naturally, someone told me that I came." ”

"Deliberately hid from me and hid in Li's house. Zhao Yuan, you are so bold!"

Hearing this, Zhao Yuan's face was full of helplessness. He looked at Li Qianqian with a pleading gaze, hoping that the other party would say something to help him excuse himself.

Li Qianqian sighed, and then said slowly: "Ten princesses, it's all my fault." Some time ago, I invited Brother Zhao to participate in today's appointment, but I don't want him to miss the day I will meet you. ”

"Agreed?"

"What agreement?"

Shangguan Hui is about twenty-two or three years old, with a brighter skin and picturesque eyebrows, and she is a stunning beauty. However, his style of acting was quite compulsive, and he said in a cold voice: "He is my fiancΓ©, what is your intention in agreeing for him to come to the Li Mansion without authorization?"

"You are mistaken. ”

Li Qianqiandai frowned slightly, she had heard that the tenth princess was unreasonable, but she didn't expect that her real temper was a few points worse than the rumors. After pondering for a moment, she said slowly: "Today is the day when my Li family invites many young talents to participate in the fragments of the Emperor Sutra, so Zhao Gongzi was invited. ”

"Huh?"

Shangguan Hui only noticed the others in the hall at this time. She raised her eyebrows slightly, her personality was already rude, and now she was angry, and said deliberately: "It's all some waste, the fragments of the Emperor's Scripture are just what they can understand? ”

Hearing this, everyone's faces changed slightly. And Li Qianqian's eyes were even more sinky, although she had a very good heart, she couldn't help but be a little angry at the moment.

"Shangguan Hui, shut up. ”

Suddenly, Zhao Yuanli drank. His eyes were slightly cold, and he said in a deep voice: "You can mess around with me, but you can't be so rude?"

"What did you say?"

"Am I rude?"

Shangguan Hui's voice raised a few points, and she screamed: "Zhao Yuan, you dare to talk to me like this! Don't forget that you are my fiancΓ©! Don't think I don't know, just to find a chance to come to the Li family to see this woman!"

As she spoke, she pointed her fair and slender fingers at Li Qianqian. In an instant, the scene became quiet.

Liu Yang shook his head, he could see that this imperial princess liked the suave Zhao Yuan, but the latter didn't have much thought, so he made a fuss today. However, it is a bit too much for this tenth princess to be so unsightly.

Although Emperor Qian's martial arts are extremely extraordinary, the eight great families in the imperial capital control huge energy like behemoths, even Emperor Qiandi does not dare to have any slackness in the face of this level of power, and a princess cannot be so disrespectful even if she is noble, which is a little unwise.

"Okay, don't you want to participate in the Emperor Sutra? This princess also wants to participate in enlightenment, your Li family will not let me participate in enlightenment if others can participate in enlightenment, right?"

Shangguan Hui stared at Li Qianqian, with undisguised provocation in her eyes.

"The princess atoned for her sins, and there were only ten places to enter the forbidden land, and now they are all full. Li Qianqian shook her head, the other party was so rude and maliciously slandered herself, how could she let the other party go to the fragments of the Emperor Sutra.

"You mean them?" Shangguan Hui sneered, pointed at everyone and said, "In that case, I will defeat them all, and the quota will naturally be given to me." ”

"Shangguan Hui, don't be unreasonable. ”

Seeing her aggressive, Zhao Yuan couldn't help but warn again.

"Zhao Yuan, do you really think that your strength and talent are outstanding? Today, this princess will let you see that the people of our imperial clan are not so easy to bully. ”

"What do you think?" The other party is the princess of the imperial family, and Li Qianqian can't offend her. So he turned to the crowd and asked.

In the face of such a rude and rude princess of the imperial capital, everyone was already angry, they were all talented people in their own family on weekdays, and who dared to point their noses and scold them for being a waste. In particular, Feng Dao and Sun Jiu are both demon-level figures, and they have never been humiliated like this.

"Since the tenth princess wants to teach, of course we will accompany her. Feng Dao's iron gun shook, causing the ground to shake a little, and he said coldly: "If you want to fight, I will be the first to appear." ”

"It is said that the people of the imperial clan are very strong, and I really want to see it. Sun Jiuwan smiled, although he was beautiful, he had a wild temperament.

"It seems that you are very dissatisfied with this princess?" Looking at everyone's eager looks, Shangguan Hui continued to sneer, she said: "You don't need my own son to make a move, the five guards behind me can defeat you all, don't say that I bully you, they are not more than twenty years old." ”

"Shangguan Hui ......"

"Shut up. ”

Zhao Yuan was about to open his mouth when he was interrupted by the other party. He clenched his fists and said no more. Although he was born in the Zhao family, the imperial family is the veritable number one force in the entire empire and the imperial capital, and if he turns his face against the other party because of today's incident, the family will definitely be terribly suppressed.
