"Wait! ”

"Wait!"

The two words of cheering sounded at the same time, Hua Xiyan turned his head and looked at the person who came in and walked in at the door and said the same thing as himself.

The visitor's eyes stayed on Huaxi's smoke for a moment, then turned away, turned his head to look at the man sitting at the table, and said softly: "Old man, you are messing around again!" ”

The noble boy dusted his feet on the chair on the side, leaned lazily against a table behind him, and said with some disapproval: "Third brother, I just want a woman, is it possible that you still want to block your brother?" ”

"Humph!" The person who came snorted coldly, waved his right arm slightly, and flicked his wide sleeves lightly, and the man who was still lazy and extremely amorous at the last moment sat directly on the ground, showing a somewhat embarrassed posture.

"Third brother!" The noble boy blushed and spoke with some dissatisfaction.

The person who came didn't look at him, but turned to look at Hua Xiyan, and said very sincerely: "Brother is rude, offended Miss, I hope Miss won't be surprised!" ”

"It doesn't matter if you hit me, but this is a good noodle restaurant......"

When the people heard this, they looked around, only to see that there were people in the hall turned over on their backs, tables, chairs and benches were scattered all over the ground, the only counter also collapsed most of them, the account books and abacus beads were all over the ground, and the two women were snuggled in the corner of the wall and shivering, which was really a mess.

If you say it, the only thing that is intact is the table in front of Huaxi Yan.

"The loss of this noodle restaurant will naturally be compensated for the younger brother, and if the two girls have any damage, it will also be counted on the next head." The person who came opened his mouth slightly, and said a very compromise solution.

Seeing Hua Xiyan nodding, the person who came walked up to the five people just now, took out a few ingots of silver, and said in a soft tone: "This little meaning should be regarded as a shock to everyone!" ”

No one looked at each other, wanted to take it but didn't dare to take it, hesitated again and again, and then slowly took it.

The smile on the lips of the sitting boy showed a hint of sarcasm, and he played with the folding fan with one hand, trembling his legs, quite disapproving.

"Go back with me." The man asked the squire to put a money bag on the collapsed counter, and said coldly to the noble man.

The man reluctantly stood up and staggered out with the man, and when he walked to the door, he turned his head to look at Hua Xiyan and said, "Beautiful young lady, we will have a meeting later!" ”

Hua Xiyan watched silently as the group of well-organized people disappeared at the door of the store, and then withdrew his gaze.

Wen Xia had already helped Ru Niang to come over, and Ru Niang's face was a little pale.

"But you're hurt?" Hua Xiyan asked with concern.

"No, Miss don't worry." Ru Niang rubbed her waist slightly and said with a smile.

"That'll be fine." Hua Xiyan nodded, looked at Wen Xia, "Then let's go back." ”

"But ......"

"Why don't you stay and take care of Ru Niang?" Hua Xiyan interrupted Xia with a smile.

Asked Xia Yi was stunned, and quickly shook his head.

"I'm fine, where do I need to take care of anything, Miss and the girl hurry back while it's still early." Ru Niang stood up and said with concern.

Wen Xia held up the umbrella and walked out of the noodle shop with Hua Xiyan.

When night falls, the lights are on, and red lanterns are hung on both sides of the street, adding a bit of warmth to the drizzly autumn leaves. The lantern flickered in the wind and rain, and the light gradually fainted, like the last faint light of a broken candle, and perhaps the next drop of rain would make it instantaneous.

The footsteps of the two made a shallow sound on the slightly waterlogged stone road, echoing in the silence of the rainy night, extremely quiet. Hua Xiyan gathered the white Guangling acacia gown on his body, looked up at the blue and black night, and his eyebrows were light.

When he returned to the inn, Wen Xia put down his umbrella without saying a word, and then turned around and went out.

"Ask Xia." Hua Xiyan called her out.

Wen Xia stopped, and said with some anger: "The slave goes out and continues to receive the punishment of the young lady." ”

Hearing this self-claim, Hua Xiyan knew that it was definitely uncomfortable to ask Xia.

Whether it is the predecessor or her, they are very good to ask Xia, and they have hardly said anything serious, and they don't blame her for being cold in today's situation.

Hua Xiyan sighed softly, like a drifting feather slowly falling, his voice was extremely shallow, and there was no sound of landing: "You come here, I'll tell you." ”

Asked Xia turned his head, and saw that under the faint yellow oil lamp, Hua Xiyan's eyebrows and eyes were soft, and her demeanor was soft, where was there a half-minute look like talking to her for a few days? Looking at this face, the resentment and sadness in Wen Xia's heart involuntarily lightened a little.

"Do you know why I punished you today?" Hua Xiyan stared at Xia and said gently.

"Didn't Miss say it, it's because I interjected?" Asked Xia pouted and replied.

Hua Xiyan chuckled: "You usually don't interject much?" Did I punish you? ”

Asked Xia to be silent.

"You saw the way that boy behaved today, what do you think would have happened if he had been unhappy at that time?"

Although Wen Xia is simpler, he is not stupid after all. Hearing this, I instantly understood Huaxiyan's intentions.

One of the five men today was seriously injured after just saying a word. If she interjected at that time, if that noble son was unhappy and suppressed her, it would be really difficult to recover. That's why the young lady took the lead and disposed of her, so that the noble son couldn't find any reason to deal with her.

"That's really arrogant for your son, and he will do it when he says it. And looking at the situation, it's not a matter of a day or two, and I'm not afraid of being impeached? After figuring out the reason, what Wen Xia said was not too resentful and dissatisfied, but a little more uneven.

Hua Xiyan stood up, walked to the table to the side and poured himself a glass of water, and drank it slowly: "They are not saints, so naturally no one will impeach them." ”

The tea that had been cold slowly flowed down her throat into her inside, bringing a cold and silent cold.

"Aren't they saints?"

Hua Xiyan nodded: "They are from Xiling." ”

Xiling is a neighbor of Shengtian in the west, standing side by side with Shengtian, and there is another country in the north that is Beirong. If you put it in detail, Shengtian is famous for its small land, then Xiling is famous for its rich national strength. Shengtian Chongwen, Xiling Xishang, Beirong Shangwu. By virtue of their own advantages, the Three Kingdoms ruled several small states under the four countries.

Seeing that Xia's face was still puzzled, Hua Xiyan further explained: "The civil official meeting has ended in Shengzhou, and the next game is Jinzhou, and the home field is Taiyuan. The civil official meeting is related to the fortune of the country, which is an extremely important matter, and this Xiling will send people to see it every year, and this year, it must be these people. ”

"Then they are ......"

"They are the third prince and the eighth prince of Xiling."

"Boom", asked Xia just felt that her head was about to explode, who did she almost offend today?

On the square table of mercy in Hua Xiyan's hand, there was a crisp clear sound, which made Wen Xia can't help but feel excited.

"There are many princes of Xiling, but the most outstanding is the three princes He Lanze, according to legend, this person is quite good at being an official, being alert and modest, a corporal of etiquette, and a large number of Qingke, the momentum is better than His Royal Highness the Prince of Xiling, but in fact, he respects the prince and does not have the slightest trespass, so the prince is also treated with courtesy and brotherhood."

If you ask Xia to be with her in the future, there will definitely be no less contact with her. But her simple and straightforward nature is a big obstacle, and what's more, she doesn't know anything about some things, such as today, she almost offended the eighth prince known as the "smiling Hades". So she had to give her a good lecture from time to time to avoid a big disaster.

"From this point of view, this third prince of Xiling is really a not simple character."

"yes." Hua Xiyan nodded, "And the Eighth Prince, Helan Hao, how do you think the title of 'Smiling Yama' came from?" ”

"Then he has his eye on Miss, how is this good?" Wen Xia suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem, and covered his lips and said lightly.

Hua Xiyan was not worried: "It's okay, with the three princes here, this matter can't be done." ”

These two are brothers of the same mother, according to what she has heard of He Lanze, this person is extremely cautious, and will not let He Lanhao take a holy woman back to be a wife, unless it is a concubine of the Chu Pavilion of the Red Mansion.

"I'm telling you this in the hope that you will learn to judge the situation in the future, and don't be strong, so as not to offend people who shouldn't be offended and cause trouble."

Wen Xia nodded, pursed his lips and said, "I know, I will definitely think twice in the future." ”

Hua Xiyan also learned the identities of those two people by accident today. Because the totem of Xiling is a vermilion bird, and the cuffs of the two people's brocade robes outline a few small vermilion birds. The totem of a country is naturally not available to ordinary people, and then I think of the rumors about those two: the three princes of Xiling, the text is in the face, and the attack is in the quality; The eighth prince is smiling and sexual. That's when I guessed the identity.

"I saw that person plotting against Miss today, I didn't think about it so much, and I almost caused trouble to Miss, it's really damned!" Asking Xia to say this, there was a rare self-blame in his words.

Hua Xiyan knew that Wen Xia was very concerned about herself, and her tone was a little softer: "I know your good intentions, besides, there are those few people, and you don't need to come forward." ”

When she left Yi County, she borrowed some elite guards from Wen Xuanhou. Yun Qi's subordinates were not eating dry rice, and it really took some effort for her to escape. And Wen Xuanhou was afraid that she would have something, so he sent the secret guard to her to help, so she was so fearless along the way.

Just as he was thinking about it, someone knocked on the door outside, and it was the Dark Guard Wind.

"Miss, a letter from Master Hou!" As soon as the wind spoke, a thin piece of paper flew in through the doorway and landed firmly on the table.

Hua Xiyan opened the letter and looked at it carefully, and the smile on his lips became deeper and deeper. It's not because Wen Xuanhou wrote something that made her extremely happy, but because of the casual care revealed between the lines, which made people feel more warm.

"Miss, Master Hou is so good to you, it's better for you to go to the Hou Mansion with you, it's better than running around like this......"

It's not that she's cowardly, but Miss and all women, and it's really hard to avenge the destruction of the entire Hua family. They have been out for more than two months, but they have not found the slightest clue. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to take revenge even if I delay it for a lifetime.

Hua Xiyan's face was still soft and stubborn, faintly revealing an extremely tenacious rumor light, and in a trance, Wen Xia heard her insincere whisper: "Do you know what your mother said to me before she died?" ”
