Chu Tiankuo entrusted the cigarette to Lu Hao to take care of, and was going to say goodbye to the cigarette in person, but who knew that the cigarette was poisoned and passed out. It's time to find a way to detoxify.

He performed light skills all the way, left Fengwei Mountain, arrived in Fengcheng City, bought a horse, bypassed Baihua Street, and went straight to Juyi Villa. Don't dare to delay for a moment on the road.

If his inference was correct, the Lord of the Ji League was a masked man. Let's hope everything goes well, otherwise the cigarette will die, and she won't last much longer. He was in a nervous mood and galloped on his horse.

The sunset is sinking in the west and approaching dusk, and the sky is full of colorful glow reflecting the mountain village.

He finally arrived at Juyi Villa just before sunset.

A tall, majestic and antique manor came into Chu Tiankuo's eyes. Covered with black tiles, the wall is built into undulating waves, a red lacquered door in the middle is hidden, the sound of the piano comes faintly from inside, and the black plaque on the door reads 'Juyi Villa' four gilded characters.

Chu Tiankuo's voice was hoarse and said, "May I ask if this is the Lord of the Ji League?" ”。 He did not turn over and dismount, but through the crack in the door, he saw the doorman napping at the door.

The doorman was woken up by him, turned his head suddenly, and glared at the uninvited guest: "What are you looking for my master?" ”

Chu Tiankuo breathed a sigh of relief, turned over and dismounted, walked to the door, and said with a smile: "This little brother, please inform me, the young man with a fan asks to see me." ”

The doorman looked at him with a look of embarrassment, and waved his hand: "My master is receiving guests." Please come back another day. ”

"I have something important and must see him immediately, please report it to the little brother." Chu Tiankuo slapped the fan with his left hand, looking anxious.

Chu Tiankuo saw that the doorman ignored him, so he walked to the door, pushed open the door with a squeak, and was about to go inside.

The doorman spread his hands, blocked his way, and shouted in his mouth: "What a big courage, Juyi Villa is also a place where you can go wild." ”

Chu Tiankuo stopped and took a cursory glance from outside the door, Juyi Villa was like a big palace, with eaves and green tiles, pavilions and pavilions, carved beams and paintings. The courtyard is full of beautiful trees, strange flowers, a small pavilion is located in the corner of the courtyard, the sunset afterglow falls on the pavilion, as if inlaid with a layer of gold edge.

There was a girl in the pavilion who was bowing her head and stroking the piano.

When I looked closely, the girl seemed to be familiar. Chu Tiankuo turned his mind and thought about it. She was the Xia He who was going to plot against him before. How did she end up here? Could it be that she is the daughter of the Lord of the Ji League?

He stood at the door, greeted Xia He from a distance, and opened his throat and said loudly, "Miss Xia." ”

Xia He followed the voice, instinctively turned around, and saw the man standing at the door. She put down the piano in her hand and walked over to him. When he got closer, he saw his handsome face clearly, with a look of surprise on his face, and a smile on the corner of his mouth, looking at her.

Xia He was ashamed and happy, like carrying a rabbit in his arms, blushing and heartbeating: "It's you, Master Chu." How did you get here? ”

Chu Tiankuo didn't answer and asked, "Miss Xia, why are you here?" ”

Xia He smiled and shook his head: "I don't have the surname Xia." ”

Chu Tiankuo's eyes were suspicious, and he asked with a smile: "Your surname is Ji, and you are the daughter of the master of the Ji League?" ”

"Huh, how do you know?" Xia He was stunned and full of apologies: "Young Master Chu, I wanted to plot against you before, but you actually let me go." It's that I can't live with you. ”

If Xia He is the daughter of the leader of the Ji League, then she came to plot against herself, obviously at the behest of her father. It's just that why did the leader of the Ji League do this? When did you offend the leader of the Ji League?

Xia He saw that Chu Tiankuo was silent in thought, thinking that he was blaming her, and sighed: "Young Master Chu, I'm sorry." ”

Chu Tiankuo retracted his thoughts and smiled heartily: "Miss Ji, don't mention the past again." I was badly wounded, and if you had made a move, I might not have been able to beat you. I have to thank you. ”

Xia He's good impression of him couldn't help but rise. Chu Tiankuo not only acted above board, but also regardless of his past suspicions, he was magnanimous. What an amazing hero. blamed himself for being confused for a while, so he believed his father's nonsense and wanted to plot against him.

Seeing that Xia He was silent, Chu Tian smiled generously: "Miss Ji, I don't know if you are willing to make this friend?" ”

"It's my honor to be a confidant with the fan. How could I refuse. My name is Ji Wenxuan. If you don't mind, just call me Wen Xuan. Ji Wenxuan said with a red face.

Chu Tiankuo remembered what was going on, frowned and said, "Wen Xuan." I have something important to ask your father, can you introduce me on my behalf? ”

"Young Master Chu, if you don't say it, I forgot. Got you standing outside this for so long. Come in and sit down. ”

Ji Wenxuan instructed his subordinates to tie up their horses and lead Chu Tiankuo into Juyi Villa. The courtyard is huge, turn left and right. Although it is not as good as the corner of the Prime Minister's Mansion, it is much more generous than Bixiang Villa. It can be seen that the owner's family is rich.

Ji Wenxuan introduced to him as she walked, it was a wing room, and it was a study. Take a few more steps down the study corridor to the lobby.

The hall is decorated with antique tables and chairs, and the walls are hung with calligraphy and paintings of ancient and modern celebrities.

Ji Zheng was sitting in the hall, and the guests below were sitting in two rows, discussing things. Ji Zheng has always doted on her daughter, spoiled her lawlessness, she didn't have so many scruples at all, in order to please her sweetheart, regardless of the occasion, she brought Chu Tiankuo here.

The people in the room were stunned for a moment when they saw Chu Tiankuo, and their eyes looked at him.

The strongest reaction was Ji Zheng, his face was a little blue, a green tendon on his forehead swelled out, his eyes widened, his mouth was closed, and he bit his lip. There was a strange smile on his face, very forced, tense.

Before, when Chu Tiankuo was walking the rivers and lakes, he had also seen Ji Zheng once or twice. Looking at it again today, the more I feel that his figure and movements are eight points similar to the masked man who attacked him that day, plus Ji Wenxuan's accusation that he wanted to plot against his stubble, Hua Yingying, and the shocked expression he saw just now. Chu Tiankuo was already ten percent sure that he was the one who gave the palm.

"Fan boy?" There were a few lonely people in the hall who were unsure and asked aloud.

Although Chu Tiankuo is famous for martial arts, not everyone has seen him with their own eyes. However, the Qingyun fan in his hand that identified himself was recognized by everyone. The fan that had been with him for more than ten years before was cut off by the masked man's sword, and he rushed to make it again. For him, the fan was not only a weapon, but also a status symbol.

Chu Tiankuo nodded and smiled.

The people in the hall Chu Tiankuo generally recognized that most of them were people in the rivers and lakes.

For a while, the guests were busy getting close to Chu Tiankuo.

Ji Zheng was shocked at first, and then angry, so angry that his face turned purple and his face turned purple, he bared his teeth and grinned, he couldn't speak for a long time, and his face became more and more ugly.

Ji Wenxuan didn't care so much, pointed to an empty stool, and said to Chu Tiankuo enthusiastically: "Young Master Chu, please take a seat." ”

He sat down next to Chu Tiankuo's seat.

The scene was awkward.
