From the mouth of the old servant of the Xie family, Chenguang only heard one important news, that is, the wife of the owner of the Famous Sword Villa in Shucheng is likely to be Yan Ying's fiancée, and this lady's maiden family, Wanren Villa, had a close relationship with the Yan family, and even was destroyed in the end.

"I didn't expect that Yan Ying actually has a fiancée." Chang Xi repeated it to Chenguang in a casual tone.

Chenguang hugged the big cat and didn't say anything.

Yan Ying never mentioned to her that he also had a fiancée...... Well, this kind of thing is not usually mentioned.

"If you go and inquire about Yan Ying's previous marriage contract, if it is a marriage between the belly, many people should know about it. I will recuperate for three days before leaving for Mingjian Villa. ”

"Yes." Chang Xi was not surprised by her decision and responded.

The information I heard after that was similar to the information I knew, Yan Ying did have a fiancée who was married when she was a child, that is, the second lady of Wanren Villa, although this marriage was not public, but it was not deliberately concealed. It's just that people who know about this marriage are sure that the second girl of Wanren Villa was dead as early as when the imperial court surrounded and suppressed Wanren Villa.

So, the wife of the owner of the current Sword Villa, is she really Yan Ying's former fiancée?

If so, what kind of connection does she have with Yan Ying now?

If not, why did the Famous Sword Villa suddenly restart the sword-casting industry, is it really just because the new emperor ascended the throne?

Chenguang made all sorts of speculations about this.

……

Tree City is located in the southern part of Cangqiu Country, where the vegetation is more lush than that of Yicheng, and it is completely covered by forests from inside the city to outside the city, and it is green as far as the eye can see. In the hot summer, there is no lake around, but there is a burst of moistness and coolness, as well as the unique freshness of plants.

Mingjian Villa is located in Tree City.

Si Qian walked around the city and didn't find any empty rooms in the inn, and now the inns in the whole city are full, and there is not a single empty room. Helpless, Chang Xi had no choice but to rent a fairly beautiful courtyard in a village on the outskirts of the city, clean it up, and give it to Chenguang to live temporarily.

After living in the small courtyard, Chang Xi and Si Qian went out to find out why there were so many more people in Shucheng all of a sudden.

Si Qian said that many of the people living in the inn were all full of rivers and lakes, and there was only the Famous Sword Villa in the Tree City, and those people were likely to come to the Famous Sword Villa. He also said that those people seemed to be lively and lively, and they should not have come for some strife. Chenguang was even more curious, so he asked Chang Xi to go out to investigate.

The two of them came back in the middle of the night, and after listening to their report, Chenguang finally knew that Mingjian Villa was going to hold a meeting in two days.

The assembly of the martial arts people rarely appeared after the Wanren Villa was destroyed, and this time it was convened by the always low-key Famous Sword Villa, which was even rarer.

The news that Si Qian found out is that the reason why the Famous Sword Villa held a rally is to show the first batch of swords that have been freshly baked since the resumption of the sword casting business in the Famous Sword Villa. Anyway, everyone who is interested in the swords of the Famous Sword Villa basically comes.

There are a large number of people coming, which has a second purpose, the eldest lady of Mingjian Villa, and the sister-in-law of the current owner's wife, Jin Menglan, known as the "first beauty in martial arts", probably has not found a suitable family since last year, and this year she will take this opportunity to openly compete to recruit relatives.

"The first beauty in martial arts?" Chenguang asked in surprise.

"Yes, the first beauty in martial arts." Chang Xi said with a smile.

Chenguang frowned: "Will there be a little more of this 'first beauty'?" Who sealed it? ”

"There is no 'martial arts beauty list', it should be self-styled. Your Royal Highness, these days, if you don't push out the name of 'the first beauty', a girl will not be able to marry a wishful husband. Chang Xi smiled and explained seriously.

Chenguang thought for a while, nodded and said in a sympathetic tone, "That's really hard for them!" ”

"There are so many people coming to Shucheng, not only to come to the Famous Sword Conference to watch the newly cast famous sword, but also to recruit relatives for the eldest lady of the Jin family." Si Qian frowned and said in a deep voice.

"What's that for?" Chenguang asked curiously.

"A few months ago, a sudden vision occurred in the middle of the night on the snowy peaks of the mountain behind Mingjian Villa, and many people saw a red phoenix with a roaring neck in the night sky. Legend has it that there are treasures in the back mountain of Mingjian Villa, and the establishment of Mingjian Villa is to protect the treasures of the back mountain. At that time, there was a warlock who calculated a hexagram for Mrs. Jin, and the hexagram showed that if she ignored it and caused trouble for the famous sword villa, Mrs. Jin was even more afraid, so she summoned martial arts people and wanted to gather more capable people, and everyone went to the back mountain to explore and see what was going on. Those people in the martial arts liked these strange things, and as soon as the news that there was a strange treasure in the Famous Sword Villa came out, they all came. ”

"Red Phoenix?" Chenguang's heart sank slightly, and he frowned.

"This is it." Si Qian took out a piece of paper from his arms, unfolded it, and outlined a fierce red bird with a red pen on the paper, Lin Qian and the deer, the head and fish tail of the snake, the back of the dragon turtle, and the beak of the swallow-jawed chicken, like a phoenix, but it was obviously more ferocious than the phoenix.

This bird is not like a phoenix, but more like the guardian beast of the phoenix kingdom. The Yujia Beast will not be drawn on the pattern of the royal family of the Phoenix Netherworld, the pattern of the royal family of the Phoenix Netherworld is the main phoenix, and the Yujia Beast is a more noble existence than the royal family of the Phoenix Netherworld, and the pattern of the Fire Sect, the state religion of the Phoenix Netherworld, will be printed with the pattern of the Yujia Beast, which is a divine beast that accompanies the goddess to serve the god of fire.

"When did this come about?" Chenguang pondered for a moment and asked in a low voice.

"It was probably when His Highness just received the invitation from the Five Congresses."

"I always think it's a little strange, but I can't say what's wrong." Chang Xi pondered for a moment and frowned.

"Famous Sword Conference, how do you participate?" According to the time given to her by Si Qian, Chenguang thought back and forth several times about this time period, but failed to find any useful information. If she doesn't go into the tiger's den, she plans to take a trip herself.

"There must be an invitation post, probably to recruit relatives and go to the back mountain to explore treasures, this time the famous sword conference is very strict with the people who participate. Time is too tight, the famous sword conference will open in three days, and this is the tree city again, if it takes a little longer or is in another place now, I can still think of a way, but those who come to the tree city are all coming for the famous sword conference, and it is easy to cause a commotion if it is robbed, and it will be difficult for His Highness to get out at that time. Chang Xi said embarrassedly.

Morning light rubbed his chin and groaned.
