The Ouyang family is the head of the four hidden families, because they have extremely outstanding people in both their background and each generation. Especially the Ouyang family's heavy martial arts, in the face of absolute force, any conspiracy is useless, not to mention that although the Ouyang family is heavy on martial arts, they are not reckless.

With the continuous improvement of the strength of the Ouyang family, the young people of this generation have been given the best resources from their birth families, and they have developed the posture that some of them are above the top.

Especially when she broke the rules of the Ouyang family and accepted two outsiders as apprentices, many young people expressed their dissatisfaction with this, and they felt that people outside were on a par with people in the family.

In fact, to put it bluntly, I just feel that people outside can't compare with them, and their qualifications are too poor. But Ouyang Qianru wants to break these and let them know that the outside they look down on now is also a very talented child, and he is better than them.

The hermit family lives in seclusion and never cares about the outside world. She agrees with this, but she doesn't agree that the younger generation has been confined to the valley, they should go to the outside world, and if they don't enter the world, they should also know the outside world.

Lin Zhuohua was a little distracted when she saw that the beauty master didn't know what she was thinking, and she and Feng Shuhui didn't say anything after they looked at each other.

Ouyang Qianru came back to her senses and said with a smile: "So, you don't have to let the younger generation of the Ouyang family go, as long as you don't kill anyone, you can beat it casually, and if something happens, the master will give you a top." ”

The two smiled when they heard this, and then pulled the topic away.

"Master, we haven't visited the valley yet, can we go out for a walk?"

Their martial arts are already okay now, and they don't plan to detain them, so they nodded: "Bring Yunting Yunyu, they are familiar with the valley, and they don't dare to find fault with others." Remember to come back at noon, and I'll ask Mama Tang to prepare your favorite meals. ”

Yunting Yunyu is the big girl who has to be used by her side, whether it is the master or the people below who will give some face when they see it.

"Okay."

The two of them left the courtyard with Yunting Yunyu, walked out of Ouyang's mansion, and walked all the way in the valley. There are two maids, naturally know where the scenery is the most beautiful, along the way to no one to find fault, but the eyes that fall on them are different, there are surprise, jealousy and envy, to no resentment.

"Miss Ziqiao, you see that is the eldest lady next to the eldest lady, and they should be the apprentices accepted by the eldest lady, right?"

The girl in a purple dress with her hair in a simple bun raised her head when she heard the words and looked at Lin Zhuohua and Feng Shuhui.

Because the distance is a little far, I can't see the appearance of the two, and the temperament is good.

"My aunt is very cruel to these two apprentices, and they haven't been seen for so many days, so it's rare to come out for a walk today, let's go over and take a look."

Ziqiao raised her chin slightly, and a touch of arrogance flashed in her beautiful apricot eyes. This haughty touch darkened her pretty and charming little face a little, and she put away the long sword in her hand and walked over.

There are a lot of people around her, most of them are some young ladies and young masters from the side branches. In their generation, most of them are young masters, especially in the line of Changzhi, only Ziqiao is such a young lady, although she is a girl in the second room, but she is also more favored.

There are a lot of people who talk to her on weekdays, and she has good talent, so she is a leader in the younger generation.

"This lake is the most beautiful place in the valley, especially at night, when the moonlight shines on it and sparkles......"

Yun Ting was talking to the two of them about Mirror Lake, and when he saw Ouyang Ziqiao approaching from a distance, he hurriedly saluted: "The slave maid has seen Miss Ziqiao." ”

"Yunting and Sister Yunyu, hurry up, these two are the apprentices accepted by my aunt, right?"

When they got closer, they naturally saw the appearance of the two of them. One is heroic, the other is bright and dazzling.

When she saw Lin Zhuohua, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes. This face has not yet opened, and people can't take their eyes off it, but imagine what kind of posture it looks like after opening.

Lin Zhuohua was also looking at the girl in front of her, and naturally the jealousy that flashed in her eyes was also in her eyes. The corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and she whispered.

"Little girl Lin Zhuohua, I've seen Miss Ziqiao."

"The little girl Feng Shuhui has seen Miss Ziqiao."

Feng Shuhui saw Lin Zhuohua like this, and she also opened her mouth a little perfunctorily. She didn't like the girl in front of her, and the contempt in her eyes was undisguised.

Zi Qiao's eyes were a little contemptuous, and she nodded perfunctory. Then his eyes fell on Yun Ting and Yun Yu, and there was a little more smile on his face.

"Sister Yunting, is my aunt free now? Ziqiao hasn't seen her for a long time, and she misses her very much. ”

If this is replaced by others, they are afraid that they will be angry, and the other party is so polite and friendly to a maid, but they are very contemptuous of them, which is simply a clear bullying of them.

A hint of mockery flashed in Lin Zhuohua's eyes, it seems that this Miss Ziqiao is nothing more than that. There is no courage that a young lady from a hidden family should have, but it makes people feel that there is a sense of a small family in handling things.

Most of the nobles in Beijing are not happy in their hearts, and they will make a face. Just like she was disgusted with Lin Youran at the beginning, but in front of outsiders, at most she just ignored her, and she wouldn't show such contempt for the other party at all. Unless, of course, the other party provokes himself first.

"Yunting, Yunyu, Shuhui and I are a little tired and go back, it's almost time to accompany the master for lunch."

Yunting Yunyu nodded when he heard this, and then looked at Zi Qiao, whose face was not too good, with a respectful tone, but his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant.

"Miss Ziqiao, the eldest lady has spoken, except for Miss Zhuohua and Miss Shuhui, no one is allowed to disturb her yard. If Miss Ziqiao has nothing to do, the slaves and maids will take the two young ladies back first. ”

Ziqiao was unhappy when she heard this, and her face showed a few points. Especially with so many people watching, she couldn't get off the stage. Just as she was about to have a seizure, the person who followed her tugged at her sleeve.

suppressed the displeasure in her heart, and a somewhat stiff smile appeared on her face: "Then Ziqiao won't bother, it's just that Sister Yunting will also bring a good message to my aunt for me." ”

Yun Ting nodded, then turned around and walked back with Lin Zhuohua and Feng Shuhui. The mood of visiting the valley today has been ruined, and it is natural to go back.

On the way back, Feng Shuhui was a little curious about the identity of the girl just now, so she asked, "Yunting, who was that young lady just now?" ”

"That's the daughter of the second room of the Ouyang family, there is only one girl in their generation, and she has good talent, so she is very favored."

Yun Ting briefly introduced, even if she is the maid next to the eldest lady, she has a bit of face, but it is not easy to say the rights and wrongs of the master's family. It's just that I don't like that Miss Ziqiao very much in my heart, that is, a spoiled young lady.

The best thing in the world should be hers, and everyone must spoil her. As soon as there is a disappointment, he loses his temper. In the past, the second room was spoiled by the family, and the big room and the third room were for the sake of such a girl, as long as they didn't do anything out of the ordinary, they would indulge.

Several people left and returned to Ouyang Qianru's courtyard with laughter, and she was slightly surprised to see them come back so soon.

"Why did you come back so soon?"

Yun Ting and Yun Yu told them about meeting Ziqiao, and then they retreated and went to the small kitchen to help Mama Tang.

Ouyang Qianru's face was a little unpleasant, and she asked the two of them to sit down before she spoke: "Don't pay attention to her the next time you see her, it's just a spoiled eldest lady." ”

Every time she heard her family say that she was very similar to herself, she felt embarrassed. It's just because the younger generation is such a girl, and everyone is rare.

Lin Zhuohua and Feng Shuhui could see that the beauty master didn't like the girl named Ziqiao very much. The two were reluctant to mention this person more, so they changed the subject.

"It's just an irrelevant person, what did Mama Tang do for us at noon?"

looked at the gluttonous faces of the two of them, like little gluttonous cats. Ouyang Qianru gave the two of them a roll of their eyes, but still told them what to eat at noon.

It's all the food that the two of them like to eat, which instantly makes them look at the unhappiness just now.

The three of them sat together and chatted for a while, and Mama Tang put lunch on the table.

"You go and spread a word, don't allow Ouyang Ziqiao's girl to come to my yard in the future."

Mama Tang was slightly stunned, and said with some hesitation: "You are afraid that there will be trouble in the second room." ”

Ouyang Qianru sneered: "It's just that my father's subordinates are begging for a living, do you really think you are a character?" How much has the second room done over the years through his father and the Ouyang family, it should be about the same. There is also Ouyang Ziqiao, Brother Cheng, they don't care about her, and they indulge her more, so they think that the people of the Ouyang family are going to spoil her, and if they continue like this, they may cause some trouble. ”

The Ouyang family is the head of the four hidden families, but the strength of the other three is not much different, not to mention that the three families are two families working together to deal with the Ouyang family, then the Ouyang family is afraid that it will be difficult to deal with it.

Mama Tang moved the corners of her mouth, and finally nodded: "The old slave will go and pass the word." ”

In the main courtyard of the second room, the second lady personally sent Mama Tang away. He returned to his room and smashed the teacup on the table to the floor. The original smiling face became gloomy, and the frightened maids in the room lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound.

"It's too much of a deception! Ouyang Qianru, how dare she ......"

The second lady's hands trembled angrily, and the grandmother next to her hurriedly stepped forward to help her sit down, softly comforting her.

"Madam, the most important thing for us now is to find out what the young lady has done to provoke the eldest lady."

The second lady sat down with the old lady's hand, suppressed the anger in her heart and said, "Go, bring the young lady over." ”

Rubbing her eyebrows, the second lady took the tea handed over by the old lady and took a sip. She knows what her daughter's temperament is, but she still can't tolerate others to say a bad word.

As soon as Ouyang Qianru's words spread out, Ziqiao's status in the Ouyang family would definitely be affected. She didn't want to see her daughter like this, and she had to find a way to get back into the game.

As soon as Ouyang Ziqiao returned to her house, she saw the maid next to her mother coming over to invite her over.

"What's the matter with Mother?"

The maid couldn't say clearly, and Ouyang Ziqiao didn't bother to ask again, so she took her maid and walked with her.

She walked into the room briskly, and wanted to throw herself into her mother's arms as usual, but was stopped halfway.

"Sit down."

Hearing her mother's cold voice, Ouyang Ziqiao realized that the atmosphere in the room was not quite right. She put the smile on her face and sat down obediently in a chair to the side.

"Mother, did anyone upset you? Daughter going to be angry for you? ”

The second lady looked at her daughter's well-behaved appearance, and said such a thing again, and her heart instantly softened.

She sighed and pulled the person to sit down beside her: "What happened today?" ”

Ouyang Ziqiao was stunned when she heard this, and shook her head: "No, as in the past, my daughter went to practice with Xiaoru and them." ”

Seeing her daughter's confused face, the second lady touched her head: "Have you met someone next to your aunt?" ”

"When they met Yun Ting and Yun Yu, they took their master's two apprentices to walk around the valley. When the daughter saw them, she went over to say hello, and the two apprentices that her aunt had taken in were not very good. ”

Thinking of those two, Ouyang Ziqiao had a bit of contempt in her eyes. In her opinion, those two people will definitely not be able to catch up with the people of the Ouyang family, let alone herself. I really don't know what my aunt thinks, but she actually accepted someone outside as an apprentice.

When the second lady saw her daughter like this, what else didn't she understand. It must be this girl who embarrassed the two of them and let Ouyang Qianru know, that person is the most protective. No wonder she turned her head and let people spread the word.

"Did you embarrass those two today?"

Hearing her mother's words, Ouyang Ziqiao was a little weak-hearted, her eyes didn't dare to look at her, and she whispered: "I didn't do anything, but I didn't talk to the two of them." ”

That is to ignore people directly, and the second lady really doesn't know what to say. Anyway, that is Ouyang Qianru's apprentice, and the status of this identity in the Ouyang family is not low. If the two of them can enter the top ten in this competition, they will be eligible for the resources of the Ouyang family.

"Have you forgotten what your mother taught you on weekdays? No matter how much you don't like each other, you can't show it, at least maintain the harmony on your face. ”

"Mother, my daughter remembers, next time it will definitely not be like this." Ziqiao saw that her mother was really angry, and hurriedly grabbed her arm and coquettishly.

"Do you know what your aunt said when they went back?" The second lady couldn't get angry at all because of her daughter's coquettishness, and nodded her forehead.

"What?" Ziqiao suddenly felt uneasy in her heart, she knew that her aunt was the most protective of her shortcomings. And she heard that her aunt was very precious to these two apprentices, and she didn't even see the head of the family who wanted to see it.

The second lady said the words that Mama Tang had come to pass on, looked at her daughter's little face and turned pale instantly, and hugged her into her arms in distress.

"Your aunt can't figure it out, those two girls are outsiders, and they are doing this to their nieces for the sake of outsiders. When your father comes back, let him talk to the head of the house about it. ”

Zi Qiao felt very uncomfortable, she had always been said to be the most aunt-like person, and she was most likely to be accepted as an apprentice by her aunt, but who knew how she was not angry when two people from outside suddenly appeared to occupy this position.

It's just that she ignored the two of them, and her aunt actually fell on her face like this regardless of family affection, and at this moment Ouyang Ziqiao hated Ouyang Qianru too.

A glint of resentment flashed in her eyes, she must let everyone know that her strength is much stronger than those two in this competition, which makes her aunt regret not taking her as an apprentice.

"Well, this is a lesson for you. Remember not to show it even if you don't like the other person, you know? ”

The second lady clapped her hand, and her face showed love.

Ouyang Ziqiao nodded and said obediently: "Well, my daughter has remembered her mother's teachings, and it will definitely not be the case next time." ”

"Okay, since you're here, let's stay and have lunch with my mother."

The mother and daughter chatted affectionately again, and neither of them mentioned the previous incident again, as if it had never happened.

Border Pass, Long Rui.

After a period of hard work, Hua Xiren and Li Zeyi finally gained the trust of King Long Rui. Now the two of them can directly guard the door of the study, and occasionally they are ordered to do something, of course, it is not too confidential, and it is not of much help to them.

On this day, the two returned to their house after duty, and Hua Xiren suddenly asked, "I remember that you said that the third son of King Longrui was captured by you?" ”

Li Zeyi nodded, now the people are still being detained in their barracks, and there are many prisoners.

"But we have been here for so many days, and we haven't seen King Long Rui send someone to save his son, you say you won't give up on the third prince, right? I see that King Long Rui has many sons, and he is not bad for that one. ”

Li Zeyi was silent for a moment when he heard this, and then spoke: "That's not it, I inquired that the third prince is very favored in front of King Longrui." Although we have gained some trust when we first came, the rescue of the third prince should be relatively confidential and will not be told to us. ”

"You mean that King Longrui has already sent someone to rescue him secretly?" Hua Xiren touched his chin, remembering that a few days ago, King Long Rui saw his generals very frequently, maybe he was discussing the rescue of the third prince.

Li Zeyi nodded: "Almost, I took a few days off with King Long Rui today, and I am going to take the pill that restores my body, and this time depends on you." ”

Hua Xianren was stunned for a moment, and said with some concern: "Do you really want to take it at this time?" ”

"Yes, I've decided."

"Okay." Hua Xiren knows Li Zeyi very well, and I am afraid that only the little girl can change what he decides, and others will not let him change his decision.

Li Zeyi took out the pill and put it in his mouth, only to feel a heat slowly spreading from the dantian to his whole body.

He immediately meditated cross-legged, using this heat to mobilize his internal strength and turn his whole body.

Seeing him like this, Hua Raider consciously guarded for him, so as not to disturb anyone.

Thanks to Li Zeyi's leave of absence, it took him five days to absorb the pill.

When he opened his eyes again, the dark eyes were as deep as an ancient well, and the cold light flashed.

Hua Xianren could feel a power emanating from him, which was terrifying. He was stunned for a moment before he could find his voice.

"Holy! You're perverted! ”
