At night, the courtyard of the Minister of War's house is as bright as day, the water of the fountain in the pool is like a golden flower in full bloom under the illumination of the light, and the marble walkway covered with red carpet extends from the door to the base of the central circular pool, one on each side of the trail, a total of 12 star lanterns as embellishments, 12 months is a year, symbolizing a hundred years of harmony.

The beams around the room are decorated with red satin, which is particularly conspicuous against the background of the luxurious costumes of the guests. The pianist's fingers fluttered on the keys, and the cheerful rhythm attracted the onlookers, who even forgot to pick up the balloons that the old butler had blown up, the pastry chef complained that the bartender had almost knocked over his carefully framed seven-tiered wedding cake lace, and the bartender scratched his head and apologized and asked the maids to bring their rum on a plate and hand it to the guests.

One of the plates was served next to the parents of both sides, and Xian Mo'an and his wife toasted Zhao Kai with goblets in both hands, and then drank the rum in one gulp.

"Thanks to the governor's assistance, the dog was saved. On the big day, our two sons and daughters tied the knot together, and we hope that the adults will not be responsible for the past mistakes. Xian Mo'an winked at Zhao Kai, then looked around to find his son's figure, and when the other party looked at him, he showed a smug look.

Zhao Kai smiled bitterly, indicating that he forgave Xian Mo'an for having a stalemate with the thieves and asking him to clean up the mess, while Xian Mo'an beckoned and let Xian Cheng, who had a cheerful face, come over.

Xian Cheng bowed respectfully to Zhao Kai, and said in a sonorous voice: "See father-in-law!"

"Don't be in a hurry to drink yet, listen to me finish. Zhao Kai suppressed the corner of the cup that Xian Chengzheng was about to raise, pointed to his chest, and glanced at Xian Mo'an, "My daughter was born pampered, you have to treat her well, if you let me know that you dare to bully her, you have to be careful." ”

"Father-in-law, rest assured, having this beautiful wife is the greatest joy in my life, and I will protect her for the rest of my life. Xian Cheng didn't raise his head to answer, and used a smile to hide his disgust for Zhao Kai in his heart.

His mother made a round for him and asked where the bride was, and he claimed that Zhao Cuiying was a little unwell and was staying in the house.

"It's really a worrying child, go find her quickly, your wedding ceremony will start soon. ”

He was glad that his mother's order did not allow him to continue to behave diligently and cordially in front of Zhao Kai, in his eyes, the marriage arranged by his father for him was very stupid, and Zhao Kai's previous attitudes were even more arrogant. However, the duty of filial duty as a son was to help his foolish father to hold on to power, even though he knew that his father would henceforth be subject to others.

Wine is a good thing that can easily make people forget their troubles, and after a few glasses, Xian Cheng was in a much better mood, he came to the pianist who had just played the music, leaned on the closed key lid, shook the wine glass in his hand, and praised it.

"Thank you for the compliment!" The pianist turned his face sideways, and Xian Cheng was taken aback when he saw this person's face, this person was Mu Yunxi.

"I can't imagine that you can play the piano, I have the impression that the investigators do some rough work to punish and eliminate evil, and few people have such a cultivated hobby as music. ”

Mu Yunxi gently stroked the lid of the piano and said with a smile: "Childe smiled, it's just that a friend of mine was very talented in music, and then we lost contact, during the police academy, out of longing, I composed this piano version of "Star Prayer", I remember that this was her favorite song before." ”

"Hopefully, one day, your friend will be able to hear this song. Xian Cheng whispered, "When it comes to music creation, I think of a person, the internationally renowned composer Yan Wensha approached me a month ago and asked me to fund the 'Idol Project' she founded. She graduated from Ilanises Royal Academy, and she talked to me about you that time, and although your former student council president later transferred, she was very concerned about you. ”

"Is there such a person? Why don't I have any impression at all? The murderer of the Hergrilla Monastery has not yet been identified, and I don't have that much to worry about. ”

"Whatever you want. Xian Chengyu said sarcastically, "I want to admit frankly that your creation is really far worse than Yan Wensha, and I can't identify with people who only regard music as a hobby." ”

As soon as Xian Cheng finished speaking, Song Zixi, who was dressed as a bartender, took a bottle of rum and came over and said: "Then the people who can get your approval are nothing more than two kinds of people, talented celebrities, or successful people who have attracted worldwide attention." Piano-playing investigators like us, bartending adventure travelers are undesirable in your eyes. ”

"That's right! That's what it means!" Xian Cheng's face flushed, and he puffed his palms twice, "Don't think that I will change my opinion of you just because you saved me, the narrow-minded common people are really annoying." He pointed at Mu Yunxi, and then at Song Zixi, and asked the other party to help him fill the wine, and then drank it all, "You are the former student union president of the Ilaniss Royal Academy, and you are the former student union president of the Purple Mist Spell Academy, you are both presidents, and your personalities are diametrically opposed, and you will definitely not accept anyone in the future, which is so interesting." "Say goodbye and leave.

"It's really unpleasant for people who know too much, right?" Shao Yan, who was dressed as a pastry chef, stepped forward and sneered after Xian Cheng left, "What should I praise you for? Gee, if only I could do that. You still have the leisure to chat with him, and you forget about business, and you don't pay attention to whether there are suspicious people mixed in at the scene. ”

Most of the guests attending the wedding were rich businessmen or nobles, in order to prevent them from becoming the target of revenge for the remnants of the Blood Shadow Troupe, Jiang Jianfei formulated detailed security work, he ordered Mu Yunxi to closely monitor the situation in the mansion and report to him at any time, but Song Zixi, who loved to join in the fun, also followed, just to prove that he was better than Mu Yunxi, but he was reprimanded by Shao Yan, and the two had to patrol the courtyard separately.

At the moment when the three of them were arguing, Xian Cheng, who was full of drunkenness, left their line of sight, staggered to the bride's room, and slowly pushed the door open with a knock.

Zhao Cuiying, who was wearing a pure white wedding dress, sat at the head of the bed, the expression on her face was like waiting for the trial, her wedding dress was designed by a famous artist, the lace softened the characteristics of the Junlong nation, and the precious diamonds on the top sparkled, making her thousands of times more beautiful than before, like a fairy bathed in holy light, Chu Chu was moving.

Xian Cheng let out a burst of piercing laughter, sat next to Zhao Cuiying and hugged her shoulders, but she pushed her away and shouted: "Don't touch me!"

"Let me do the math, you're my first fiancée. Xian Cheng hiccuped and brushed his fingers away, "Okay, the second one, the other one is my childhood sweetheart from before, hey! My father's fate is hard to disobey, it seems that I can only fail her." Even if you don't want to, after tonight, you will be my wife. ”

Zhao Cuiying sneered: "But we all hate each other, this marriage will not be happy." ”

"We are all chess pieces in the hands of others, I advise you to give up resistance and be content with the status quo like me, do you remember what happened to your sister back then? Her wisdom, beauty, cultivation and even everything is above you, but unfortunately, if that incident hadn't happened at the beginning, the title of the most beautiful woman in the world would never have fallen on your head, don't think that I married you because I coveted your beauty, I am pitying you, even if you put in more effort, you will never be able to compare to your sister. ”

"Don't say it...... Besides, believe it or not, I killed you!" Xian Cheng's drunken words made Zhao Cuiying's cheeks flush, and her nails were deeply embedded in her skirt, but fortunately, Xian Cheng really didn't continue, he leaned on the side of the bed and fell asleep.

Just as Zhao Cuiying stood up and wanted to get rid of this man, she smelled a burst of aroma wafting from the window, and then her vision began to blur and she fainted.

The two masked black-clothed men who broke in outside didn't say a word, and pulled up Zhao Cuiying, who had fainted, and came to Xiao Yong, who was disguised as a VIP, and Xiao Yong immediately waved his hand to let them take people away.

At the same time, several bandits in disguise in the courtyard revealed their true colors, took out their hidden muskets and fired indiscriminately at the crowd, killing several guests on the spot, causing a great commotion, and the crowd fled in all directions, looking for cover around.

Seeing this chaos, Mu Yunxi immediately fused his sword out of its sheath and blocked several bullets for the fleeing crowd, Song Zixi on the side rolled around for a week, and the phantom feather arrows shot by Zhang Gong knocked down several attacking bandits, Shao Yan summoned a spell ball to cast a forbidden spell on the rest of the bandits, making their guns collectively dumb.

Seeing that the situation was about to be controlled by the three of them, who knew that Xiao Yong, who appeared in the courtyard, easily took the phantom feather arrow shot at him by Song Zixi, and his knife was on the neck of a trembling *, leaving the three of them helpless.

"Hello, Captain of the Langtian Adventure Group, I haven't seen you for a few days, but your arrow spell is still so powerful, and the wound on my leg is still faintly painful, thanks to you. Xiao Yong laughed and smashed the transformed arrows, and then turned to Mu Yunxi, "And you, Mr. Investigator, you and Jiang Zhifei killed my eldest brother and destroyed our cottage, how should this account be calculated?"

This is a grudge between you and me, it has nothing to do with others, you are about to let that child go. ”

"Uncle Ben hates you the most about being a search officer with a strong sense of justice, so you can try it if you have it. As he spoke, the knife in his hand moved.

"You ......" Song Zixi sensed that the spiritual power in Mu Yunxi's sword hand was getting stronger and stronger, and hurriedly suppressed the other party with the same spiritual power, so as not to make impulsive actions.

At this moment, the spaceship of the Blood Shadow Regiment arrived in the sky of Xian Mo'an's mansion, and the strong air flow stirred by the engine made people unable to open their eyes, and in a panic, Zhao Kai found that just behind Xiao Yong, two thieves were kidnapping the unconscious Zhao Cuiying and running in the direction of the courtyard upstairs, and the spaceship happened to be docked on the roof of the building behind the courtyard, shattering the surrounding bricks and tiles.

"You bastard, give my daughter back. Zhao Kai was so anxious that he rushed towards Yu Yong, but he kicked him away.

"Governor, you're doing it to yourself! Who made you enemies of our Blood Shadow Clan at every turn. Seeing Shao Yan go to help Zhao Kai who had fallen to the side, Xiao Yong smiled wickedly, thinking that the time was right, and threw * at Mu Yunxi with a shake of his hand, and quickly ran onto the roof with his wings.

Song Zixi stretched out his hand to take it*, and Mu Yunxi went to chase the escaped Xiao Yong, when he reached the roof, Zhao Cuiying had already been taken into the spaceship, and in order to buy time, Xiao Yong let the spaceship immediately rise into the air and lower the rope ladder for himself to climb onto the spaceship. But he didn't expect Mu Yunxi to be so fast.

The two started a chase on the rope ladder, and even Mu Yunxi had reached Xiao Yong's ankle, but unfortunately it was just a little bit worse, he couldn't stop Xiao Yong from cutting the rope in time, and fell from the air and was slightly injured.

Mu Yunxi got up and vented his emotions on the rubble. I thought to myself, this time I let this thief escape again.
