The army is advancing, and the speed is indeed fast. Qu is still saying that at that time, he went to the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple with the people in the palace, and he was still wandering leisurely, but now he knows the pain of the march, not to mention that they are not marching at all now, they are just setting off for the suburbs.

Only a quarter of an hour later, the huge army had already reached the outskirts, and Ji Sheng still laughed at Qu still running out of breath.

General Wang, whom I had seen a few days ago, was in front and walked over to the four of them and said, "Although the four are distinguished guests, since they are going to participate in our training, Wang will train like his own soldiers, please understand." ”

All four said they understood.

About 5,000 soldiers, divided into two teams, fought in an open field without any obstacles, but each of them had a weapon in his hand, not a sword, but a branch, so that everyone could not be harmed by their own people.

The four of them learned the martial arts of various factions, and they had a little difficulty fighting with these real swords, but this was not the scene of the big battle after all, and the four of them, any one of them made a move, which could cause dozens of casualties, so they had to fight obediently.

"I don't know what they asked us to do here," he said. ”

Qu still smiled: "Maybe you want us to exercise." The tone was very sarcastic, which made Nian Tong smile.

However, to be honest, the training of these people is very hard, although it is not as formal as in Wanjun Mansion, but they really have a little more flexibility when they fight with branches.

Nian Tong watched, suddenly there was a chill behind her, she frowned, and the moment she took a step back to the side, she also heard Tang Xi's low voice "Be careful".

Nian Tong hurriedly turned his head, and saw a cold light, it was a dagger. The dagger was held by a soldier who had come out of nowhere, shouting, "Traitor, take your life—"

Nian Tong didn't feel anything himself, but Tang Xi wrinkled his brows tightly, extremely dissatisfied with his "traitor", even if he was holding a branch in his hand, he rushed up without hesitation and fought against that person.

Between the four of them, Ji Shengping's usual weapon is a fan, Qu is still a flute, and although Nian Tong uses a sword, he uses sword qi and virtual sword to attack, and his swordsmanship is not very good. And although Tang Xi used a dog-beating stick, the wind and water of the stick were similar, which was similar to the branch. Tang Xi's qualifications were already outstanding, and coupled with his exquisite skills, he subdued that person to the ground in a few moves.

"Say, who told you to come?" Tang Xi stomped him on the ground and said fiercely.

Nian Tong walked over, and the man had a hideous face and grinned in pain.

"This woman took refuge in the Red Sleeve Villa, everyone knows it, why can't I kill her?"

Tang Xi squatted down and stretched out his hand to slap him: "Who allowed you to talk nonsense?" ”

Nian Tong was a little stunned by his slap, and was even more a little weak by what the man said that he had taken refuge in the Red Sleeve Villa.

The crowd also stopped their struggle and gathered around to see what was going on. Qu Yi and Ji Sheng also leaned over.

Qu still went to support Niantong: "Are you okay?" ”

Nian Tong smiled and shook her head, the comfort song was still there, obviously it was not her who was injured, but she seemed to be more nervous than Nian Tong.

The people next to him began to whisper, and General Wang came over and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Ji Sheng stepped forward and replied: "There is a soldier here who came out to assassinate Nian Tong just now. ”

General Wang raised his eyebrows and said, "In these days, there are indeed a lot of these rumors. ”

Tang Xi's eyes were full of murderous aura, and he shot towards General Wang: "You say it again, what do you mean, there are a lot of rumors?" ”

General Wang pursed his lips, as if he was taken aback by Tang Xi's eyes, and did not continue to discuss this issue: "After all, this person is from my Wanjun Mansion, let me deal with it." ”

Tang Xi snorted, kicked his body hard, and then glanced at Nian Tong who was next to him, because of what happened last time, he hadn't spoken to her alone for a long time. These days, he has occasionally heard rumors from others, but this is the first time he has seen this kind of direct assassination.

He said coldly to the people around him: "I don't care where you hear it, if someone spreads rumors about my apprentice in the future, or even hurts people, I will definitely not tolerate it, no matter who you are, I will end you with my own hands." ”

This sentence shook all the people around him. Nian Tong was even more shocked, looking at his eyes, but full of helplessness.

General Wang coughed: "Whatever else you see, go to training." Then he walked over and asked Niantong, "Nothing happened to the girl, right?" ”

"It's fine."

"Then, you can go back today." General Wang said.

All four of them should get down, and then walk in the direction of Wanjun Mansion. Although Nian Tong was not injured, he had palpitations, but it was not for this assassination. To be honest, even if Tang Xi was not present today, she still had the ability to dodge the resistance, but their volume of "traitors" really pierced her heart.

yes, traitor.

Who is she to deny it?

Walking and walking, Qu Ying and Jisheng didn't know when they were walking slower and slower, and when Niantong came back to his senses, only Tang Xi was left by his side.

She looked at him blankly, then lowered her head and said, "Thank you, master." ”

Tang Xi smiled bitterly: "You... Do you care what others say? ”

"No, it won't." I already did it, so how could I care about what others said.

"I believe in you." Tang Xi said.

Nian Tong pulled a smile.

"I believe you are saying that even if you, as they say, take refuge in the Red Sleeve Villa, you have your own difficulties."

Now, it's Niantong's turn to be dumbfounded. Although she believed from the beginning that Tang Xi would support her, at this time, Tang Xi still said this firmly, which really moved her.

But she couldn't tell him anything.

She said, "Thank you." ”

This rusty tenderness stung Tang Xi's scabbed wound that had been stabbed a few days ago. He didn't say a word, just walked beside her.

At this moment, the autumn wind is blowing, and the fallen leaves are fluttering and falling like butterflies, but she thinks it is so beautiful.

......

Finally returned to the room, Niantong felt a little tired, and Qu still followed her in.

"Did you say anything to Tang Xi just now?" Qu still asked cautiously.

"No... I said thank you to him. ”

Qu still nodded: "The matter of your refuge in the Red Sleeve Villa was first said by Chen Mengyun, but she also apologized to you later, so who is spreading the rumors..."

"Ah Chen..."Nian Tong whispered the name repeatedly, as if thinking about some details, "Still, can you do me a favor?" ”

"Well, what?" Qu still has a straight look.

"Please help, in front of everyone, give me a suitable opportunity to meet Starfire."

Qu is still clear, it was originally Nian Tong who was the first to mention the star burning, if the two of them met in private and were found out, then it would really be impossible to wash it away.

At dinner, perhaps because there have been too many things that have happened recently, or maybe the oppressive atmosphere has left everyone speechless, and only the sound of chopsticks and porcelain bowls colliding with dishes can be heard at the dinner table.

Nian Tong gave Qu still a look, Qu was still very embarrassed, but agreed to her thing, so he had to clear his throat and said, "That, Nian Tong, is the burn on your hand healed?" ”

Nian Tong was stunned, then nodded hurriedly and said, "Almost, almost." ”

Qu still patted her on the shoulder: "Then you can't be negligent, wait and get some medicine from me." Oh yes, yesterday's man... Didn't he burn too? When you take it, give him some too. ”

Before Nian Tong could answer, he heard Tang Xi say, "Give it to me, I'll give it to him." ”

Qu still gritted his teeth, but he couldn't pretend to be kind and said: "Niantong is by the way, don't mix it blindly." ”

Tang Xi didn't let go: "At night, men and women have one room, what kind of system does it become?" ”

Nian Tong pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice: "It's like you didn't break into my room in the middle of the night..."

Qu still laughed awkwardly twice, and kicked Ji Sheng next to him under the table, Ji Sheng raised his eyebrows, although he didn't know why she asked him to help her, but...

"Tang Xi, you're not well, I'll show you again tonight." Ji Sheng said.

Tang Xi's face darkened, and he had to respond.

After finishing the meal, Nian Tong followed Qu Yi to get the medicine and walked to Xingyan's room. Qu still looked at her, with worry in his eyes.

A person came out next to him, and he was still startled.

"What are you doing?" Ji Sheng smiled at the corner of his mouth, and looked at Qu Yi almost playfully.

"You're just doing something with a weak heart!" The song still resounds.

Ji Sheng changed his expression of hatred and injury: "When you were eating, you kicked me, but it hurt so much." ”

Qu still felt a chill, she remembered that when she first met Jisheng, he was still a personable and elegant son, how could he become such a scoundrel now. But think about it, I was also a gentle and virtuous girl at the beginning, and now... Well, there are two sides to people.

"Tell me what you want to do." Qu still said.

"Hmm... No matter what idea you have in your heart with Niantong today, I won't care, I also helped you with this, but you have to remember that you owe me a favor. ”

Qu still looked at him suspiciously: "You came to me today just to tell me that I owe you a favor, that's all?" ”

"Otherwise, what do you think I'm here to do?" Ji Sheng smiled, "I won't talk to you more, I will drag your blessings, I have no time to admire the moon at night, and I have to see a doctor for that stinky boy of Tang Xi." ”

Qu still looked at him blankly, "snorted", and hid in his room.
