Chapter 181: Crisis Comes
At this moment, Hua Long also saw the beautiful girl.
The moment their eyes met, Hua Long clearly knew that this Bechyna, who was wearing a gorgeous long dress, was the Tianxue who stopped him that night, but why was she Bechyna? Could ......it be the daughter of Duke Winke?
Hua Long frowned slightly, at this moment, the worry in his heart was greater than his surprise!
What exactly is she here for?
Last time, she was to cover Hua Yun, right? So she should be on Hua Yun's side, but if that's the case, won't her identity be exposed?
If it's exposed......
If his younger brother Hua Yun knew about it......
Hua Long didn't dare to think down, and he didn't want to think down, he seemed to vaguely feel the fate that the crazy old man said, this invisible silk thread has been entwining him, he can neither resist nor escape, he can only go down with the established fate.
Is this the fate of rabbits? never able to soar?
Damn it!
Hua Long's fists clenched, but at the same time, he also felt that the Tianchi acupoint began to ache faintly again. This is the sequelae of forcibly rushing through the border.
......
"Yes, of course!"
The sound coming from the study on the second floor was loud and scary, and it was not difficult to judge the degree of surprise of Count Auno from the tone, and soon the butler ran down from the upstairs, "Young Master Huayun, the master told you to go to the study." β
Then he walked up to Beckina's front and said respectfully, "Your father, Duke Venk, asked me to take you to the study, please come with me." β
After a few breaths, under the gaze of the nobles, Hua Yun and Becina stood together and walked side by side towards the second floor.
"This kid has a good life. β
"Became a Commander, Now ......"
Some people started to get jealous.
On the other side, when Betcina walked past Hua Long, she didn't stop, but she used voice transmission to say something to Hua Long, "Are you scared?"
When Hua Long came back to his senses, Betkina had already walked up the stairs with Hua Yun.
Are you afraid? Hua Long repeated this sentence in his heart, yes! How could he not be afraid! If he could still maintain his composure under such circumstances, he would probably only be a dead man.
......
In the hallway leading to the study.
Hua Yun suddenly stopped and pushed aside the butler who was leading the way, and Becina also stopped, and the two of them stood for a moment in this strange atmosphere.
"Tianxue?" asked Hua Yun softly and tentatively.
Betchyna replied lightly, "Is there something wrong?"
"Is it really you?" Hua Yun was a little happy, and could even be said to be happy, "I've been inquiring about you since that day, but ......"
"I said I would make you the overlord, and I won't leave until then. Bechyna's voice was cold and piercing, and she was almost like her in the hall before, but this was also the "Tianxue" that Hua Yun knew, the "Tianxue" that gave him hope.
Unconsciously, Hua Yun's heart developed a dependence on Tianxue, although it was still very slight.
"And you this time?"
"Strange about who I am?" asked Betchyna.
Hua Yun nodded, "As far as I know, Duke Wenke did have three sons in his early years, but they all died, but I never heard that he had a daughter, and he still ...... now" He wanted to say that Yin was beautiful, but he didn't know how to speak.
"You just have to listen to me, you don't have to think too much. Becina continued in the direction of the study, "Don't stand, you'll be suspected." β
"Huh?" Hua Yun was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ponder Tianxue's words in his heart. Listen to her?
......
In the study.
Count Onno kept laughing, and that smile was full of satisfaction and affirmation, especially holding the statue of the pure gold goddess of light sent by Duke Wink, Count Onno's heart almost blossomed.
"You're such a waste of money. β
Weighing this large amount of gold statue, Count Auno conservatively estimated that it was worth at least more than a million gold coins, and such a valuable thing could be given away, it seemed that Duke Wink was very serious about what he said before.
"Anyway, I haven't come to visit before, but this time it's just a small gift to show your heart, and the Earl doesn't have to mind too much. Duke Wink laughed, looking like he could afford to put it down, "What do you think of my previous proposal?"
"Of course I'm fine, but I need to hear about this kind of thing......"
As Count Onno spoke, there was a knock on the door of the study, and soon Hua Yun and Becina walked in and saluted the two elders, and then sat down separately.
There was a brief silence in the study.
The two of them, as elders, didn't seem to know how to speak, but in the end, it was Duke Wink who opened the conversation.
"Huayun. β
"Huh?"
Duke Wink smiled and asked, "What do you think of my daughter Betchina?"
He asked Hua Yun stupidly, does he want me to marry Bechyna? Hua Yun looked at her sitting opposite and felt a little uneasy, in fact, he admitted that Bechyna was the most beautiful person he had ever seen, but Hua Yun had always liked Jingyi, and he was the same as Hua Long, he couldn't let him marry a woman other than Jingyi, and he didn't even want to marry a princess.
"Duke Wink asks you. Seeing his son's rudeness, Count Auno hurriedly reminded him.
"It's beautiful. Hua Yun lowered his head and said softly.
"Will you marry my precious daughter, then?" said Duke Wink, looking reluctant.
"Huh?" Although he had already predicted this result, Hua Yun still subconsciously let out an exclamation, but when he saw Bechyna's indifferent gaze, he hurriedly changed his words: "Of course I would be willing to have this opportunity." β
It's just, is he really willing? Even Hua Yun himself couldn't figure it out, on the one hand, he wanted to see her, and on the other hand, he felt that she was a little scary.
Duke Wink immediately smiled with satisfaction, and Count Aono laughed as well, and it seemed that they were both satisfied with Hua Yun's reply.
"As for my daughter, I appreciate your talent very much, so I intend to marry you, you also know, we are a duke family, and it is a good match for royal relatives like you!" Duke Wenke's words seemed to be how much Hua Yun took advantage of, "Of course, I also know that you and the princess have a verbal marriage contract, however, I might as well make it clear that the princess's health is deteriorating, and it is probably not possible for you to marry her, and my family's Becina is outstanding, whether it is etiquette, poetry, Quyi is proficient in everything, if you marry her, haha......"
Duke Winck seems to be the posture of the old king selling melons, but what he said is true, not to mention that the Earl of Aono is also in favor.
"I won't force you, but you can marry Betschna as a concubine first, if you ...... in the future," he didn't finish the sentence, because it was taboo, "How about you make my daughter the main concubine when the time comes, my request is not excessive, is it?"
After a moment of silence, Hua Yun nodded, "I'm honored." β
......
On a moonlit and starry night, Hua Long stood on the terrace outside the bedroom and quietly peeked at the vast starry sky.
My younger brother is going to marry "Tianxue"!
He knew the news three hours ago, and until now, Hua Long could still feel the shock caused by the news, his brain continued to buzz, and his mind couldn't calm down no matter what.
After all, Tianxue knows her own business, and at the same time knows that her mentor is Ryatt, Hua Long thought about it and made all kinds of possible assumptions, is Tianxue a person? Unlikely! Because she is very young, but she already has a very high cultivation, which means that there must be a person or an organization that spares no effort to teach her, if there is indeed such an organization or individual, then it can explain why her mentor Ryatt's meridians will be shattered by people!
Wait a minute!
Hua Long suddenly remembered one more thing, it was about the Four Tiger Guards of the former Northern Governor's Mansion.
After having his own intelligence channels, Hua Long once went to investigate the whereabouts of the four tiger guards, but the news he got surprised him, the evil pupil, the head of the four tiger guards and known as the third master of the underworld, was forced to commit suicide by a mysterious person wearing a white robe not long after leaving the Cold Moon Imperial Capital, and the most significant feature of this person is that the white robe is embroidered with a crimson divine dragon, which is strikingly similar to the white-robed man Hua Long saw in the Northern Governor's Mansion, what kind of organization can have such a strong strengthοΌ
And after these two clues were linked, Hua Long seemed to feel that he could see some people standing behind Tianxue, although there was still a thin sand, but the figure of that person was already recognizable.
He frowned slightly, and stood with his hands folded over his chest for so long......
......
In the bedroom with the lights on.
After an hour in the rose petal bath gel, Xue Ya changed into her pajamas and sat down at the dresser to fix her hair, smiling at this time.
Sasna, who was busy cleaning up the bed, noticed Xueya's "abnormal" behavior, usually when it was almost time to rest, it was when the young lady's nerves were the weakest, and she always lost her temper for no reason during this time period, but today......
"Miss?"
"What's wrong?"
"You seem happy, huh?"
"Is there anything wrong with me being happy?"
Sasna didn't dare to ask again, because if she asked again, she would probably scold herself again, and thinking of this, she spread the changed futon on the bed and prepared to leave.
But at this moment, Xue Ya did call out to her, "Sasna." β
"What's the matter, Miss?"
She didn't want to scold me, did she? Sasna lowered her head and prepared to withstand Miss Xueya's verbal "attack", but what she didn't expect was that Xueya didn't have the same kind smile as usual.
"You go and get a pillow, it's harder, and by the way, it's a blanket, preferably the vanilla-scented kind, a light one. β
Sasna knew that Hua Long had been sleeping in the study all the time, and at the same time, she also knew that Xue Ya had thrown the pillow that "belonged" Hua Long out of the window, and she did this just to let Hua Long sleep on the bed, but what was going on today? Why did Miss Xue Ya do this?
"What are you doing in a daze?"
"Oh! I'll go. β
In fact, Xueya's doing this was completely a secret taught to her by the Countess of Auno, and she told Xueya that she could try to be nice to Hua Long, care about him, and most importantly not lose her temper, if she could do this, then her relationship with Hua Long would develop further.
"Further?" Xue Ya's cheeks flushed again, and then she laughed silly, "Further!"
Soon, the night was already deep and it was time to rest.
Xue Ya had already gone to bed and lay down, but she didn't sleep because she wanted to see Hua Long's reaction, and soon, Hua Long walked in and took off his clothes and fell asleep.
After a long wait!
"Nasty guy!" After waiting for a long time and not seeing Hua Long's reaction, Xue Ya had to get into the quilt angrily, "Don't pay attention to you anymore!"
