Chapter 25: "Brother and Sister Gong"

"Ten Sisters Stay ......"

The voice was smiling, nasal.

Xingchen stood at the door of the courtyard, but did not look back.

There was a hearty laugh from behind him. "The tenth sister can't rub sand in her eyes, but it hasn't changed at all for ten years."

Xingchen sneered.

"The third brother's temperament has not changed for ten years. No matter how you look at this, we should all be brothers and sisters. ”

After she finished speaking, she saw Xu Liancheng, who was still obediently following behind her, and saluted solemnly to the man behind her: "My subordinate is in charge of Xu Liancheng in Beijing, and I will meet the third son." ”

The man waved his hand, glanced at Xu Liancheng, and said with a smile: "I have heard that Captain Xu is young but has the talent to command thousands of troops, and it is very fortunate to see it today." ”

"Okay, put away your smile, you smile so well at him, I'm going to be jealous as a sister."

Xingchen said softly, and then pulled Xu Liancheng into the inner courtyard quite consciously.

The smile on the third son's face did not change, and he followed her into the inner courtyard.

"There is one thing that the third brother doesn't understand." He sat upright in the master's seat, looking like a kind brother, looking at the stars who sat down at the table.

This seat was chosen by Xingchen herself, although her status is now far higher than her brother, who is rumored by the world and does not know the life and death of the frontier. It's just that she knows better in her heart that although her brother has a smiling face, he is a real smiling tiger + careful eyes. She didn't want to be hated by him before she cooperated.

So jokes are jokes, and when she talks about business, she still respects her brother very much.

"What?" She raised her glass, first to Xu Liancheng, and then to Xu Liancheng, and then drank it all.

The third prince calmly accepted the toast, and also picked up the wine glass and drank it all. Seeing the two of them drinking without blinking, Xu Liancheng immediately stood up and drank two glasses of wine, without any breath.

After drinking, he said loudly: "My subordinates are rude and derelict in their duties, I am really ashamed, and I dare not sit at the same table with the two, and I also asked the third prince and the princess to allow me to guard outside the courtyard." ”

Xingchen didn't say anything, just raised his eyes and looked at the third son.

The third prince narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Accurate." ”

Obviously, the two of them spoke and acted very well for him.

After Xu Liancheng left, the third son, Li Zhu, looked at Xingchen again, and couldn't help but sigh while watching.

"When I left, you were only a little bigger, and now you look at it, and you are getting more and more marked."

Xingchen touched his slightly hot face and smiled.

"Everyone in the world praises me for being good-looking, but no one asks me if I'm happy."

Li Zhu saw that her cheeks were a little pink, and knew that because of his personal habits, the hospitality wine in the house was much stronger than that of ordinary people, so he instructed Xiao Shi to replace the wine on the Xingchen table with ordinary low-alcohol wine and some hangover tea.

He himself took another drink.

The wine was strong, but it was right to his heart.

"There are thousands of things in the world that make people unhappy, but a drunken can solve a thousand worries." He laughed and took another drink.

The stars laughed with him.

"The third brother has traveled all these years, and the amount of alcohol is really good."

"It's not just the amount of alcohol, there's so much that's happened over the years......" He glanced down at the stars, then pointed to his hair. Look at me, I'm only ten years older than you, and my hair is half gray. ”

Xingchen was silent, and looked at his hair carefully.

Indeed, there are many gray hairs, and the hair quality is also yellow, which shows that the people in front of them are not living a smooth life and are not rich.

"The third brother suffered."

She sniffed, raised the glass in front of her, and drank it again.

Li Zhu also sighed.

"Well, let's not talk about the past. You should know why the third brother came back this time. ”

Xingchen nodded.

"You've been trapped in this inner city all these years, and it's not easy to live a better life."

Xingchen nodded.

"Then give me the edict, and we will go and kill the witch openly."

After saying this, the smile that Li Zhu had been hanging on his face suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by an extremely cold face. This face is his true character.

Xingchen understands that her third brother has been like this since he was a child, he is violent and ruthless, and he will be retributed, and anyone who offends or despises him will not end well. What's more, her mother, the demon woman in his mouth, humiliated and scolded him in front of the civil and military officials, and even almost pushed him out and beheaded him.

To say, her third brother's life was saved by her.

When I was young, I only felt that the third brother was smiling on weekdays, and he was also quite kind to the sisters and brothers. cried and saved such a life from the empress's knife.

It's just that, she never dared to expect him to remember.

She looked calm and raised her glass.

"If this matter is really so simple, then the demon woman will have no bones left!"

Her face was cold, as if the hatred for the empress in her heart had not diminished in the slightest.

Li Zhu was taken aback.

"For ......," he paused. Again: "What do you say?" ”

For some reason, these two glasses of wine are obviously low in degree, and there is no discomfort in the mouth, but why does she feel that her face is hotter?

Xingchen shook his head, supported his somewhat heavy head with his hand, and tilted his face slightly to look at Li Zhu.

"Does the third brother really don't know, or is he tricking me here?"

Li Zhu's face returned to smile.

"Ten sisters, but it's okay to say."

"Over the years, there have been not thousands of people who want to assassinate, but also hundreds, each skill is one top and one is good, and the information in the dark is also one top and one thorough, but over the years, they have even ...... "Subconsciously wanted to say that the mother emperor, the brain is not bad and complete, so he pretended to snort and continued: "They didn't even hurt a single hair of the witch, why do you think it is?" Are they all stupid? ”

Li Zhu naturally understood the abilities of those people, because over the years, he had searched for masters of the rivers and lakes, and he had really seen their skills, but after being sent to the inner city, he fell into the sea, and he couldn't even enter the empress's body.

Xingchen sniffed again, this wine, what's going on?

She picked up the hangover tea on the side and took a sip. Bitter, unpleasant. Her pampered problem was suddenly committed, and she put the hangover tea back on the table, broke the jar, and toasted another glass of wine.

"So the path of stabbing will not work."

She said.
