Volume 1 Chapter 274 The Imperial Palace Courtyard

Ren Tianxiang didn't know what happened in the imperial study after he left, and only a few people who knew about it would connect him with the next major changes in the Star Emperor Kingdom, but the only people in the Star Emperor Kingdom who really knew that Ren Tianxing had been here were only Xingheng, Xing Zheng, Xinglian and Zhang Ying.

Ren Tianxiang wouldn't care about what news Ren Tianxing brought back to Xingheng, after all, he didn't know that Ren Tianxing had come back at all, and he still regarded his body as a royal body.

Of course, even if he knew that Ren Tianxing had come, he wouldn't care too much about the government, and there was only one thing he cared about now, that is, he would be able to see Xing Lingluo soon!

He only has Xinglingluo in his heart, no matter how beautiful the courtyard he and Zhang Ying passed by, he won't take a look, he just wants to see Xinglingluo as soon as possible now, and he doesn't have the heart to appreciate anything else.

Obviously, since he and Xing Lingluo were separated, it had only been a day and a half, but now he seemed to be a little stunned by Xing Lingluo, which even he himself was a little frightened.

However, what about the demons? Ren Tianxiang only cares about the falling stars, and he doesn't want to think about anyone else. At this time, he followed behind Zhang Ying step by step, and his mind was full of the appearance of Xing Lingluo.

Zhang Ying, who led the way in front, couldn't help frowning, Ren Tianxiang had been smirking since he followed him out of the imperial study, and it was the kind that was particularly penetrating - Ren Tianxiang was completely immersed in his own world, and he didn't think about Zhang Ying's feelings at all.

Ren Tianxiang didn't know that Zhang Ying had planted a curse mark on himself in addition to beating himself on the Broken Intestine Cliff, until now he only regarded Zhang Ying as a well-established shadow guard beside the emperor, and he didn't have any resentment, which is also the reason why Zhang Ying is still relatively harmonious in the process of leading Ren Tianxiang to find Xinglingluo.

In fact, Zhang Ying doesn't hate Ren Tianxiang, as one of the people who grew up watching Xing Lingluo, he completely agrees with Ren Tianxiang's love for Xing Lingluo. Moreover, when Ren Tianxiang was stopped in front of the gate of Dragon City, he watched silently from the sidelines.

It was also Ren Tianxiang who passed the threshold of indulgence, and Zhang Ying recognized him, he Zhang Ying is not a fool, he can naturally see that Ren Tianxiang really likes Xinglingluo.

Because of this, he did not follow the emperor's intention to bring Xinglingluo back as soon as possible, but waited for Ren Tianxiang and Xinglingluo to explain clearly that the relationship between the two was reconciled before bringing Xinglingluo back to the palace.

However, recognition is recognition, and whoever follows such a person who only knows giggles will be very awkward!

So in order to protect his good mood, Zhang Ying finally decided to do something. He stopped, turned around, raised his hand and knocked on the head of Ren Tianxiang, who was still walking forward.

was knocked so hard, Ren Tianxiang suddenly came back to his soul. He suppressed his smile, covered his head in pain, and then asked Zhang Ying, "What are you hitting me for?"

Zhang Ying glanced at him and said expressionlessly, "I hate your expression. Even if you have been recognized by Her Majesty and Her Royal Highness the Princess, you should not show such a stupid expression when thinking about Her Royal Highness, this is disrespectful to Her Royal Highness. ”

Ren Tianxiang shrugged indifferently, but still didn't speak. In fact, he really wanted to refute Zhang Ying, he thought that his sweetheart had nothing to do with this guy? If Ren Tianxiang wasn't very sure that he couldn't beat Zhang Ying, he would have gone up to the latter to theorize.

As for now, it's better to bear with it first, and the gentleman will take revenge, ten years is not too late!

And Zhang Ying saw that Ren Tianxing wanted to speak and stopped, and soon understood the latter's careful thoughts. He sneered softly, and quickened his way to Starling's residence.

Zhang Ying walked very fast, and his steps were also huge, which made Ren Tianxiang almost have to trot to catch up with him.

Fortunately, they are not far from Xinglingluo's residence now, and Ren Tianxiang will not lose it if he wants to follow Zhang Ying like this.

When Zhang Ying stopped in front of a courtyard, Ren Tianxiang was only breathing a little short. It's not a big deal, just take a few more deep breaths.

Zhang Ying didn't look at Ren Tianxiang, so he stepped forward directly and knocked on the door knocker.

"Who is it?" As soon as the sound of the knocker fell, a slow, somewhat old voice came from the small courtyard.

Ren Tianxiang's heart suddenly froze--His Majesty the Emperor obviously asked Zhang Ying to bring him to find Xinglingluo, but where did he bring himself? This old voice is clearly impossible for Xinglingluo! So what did Zhang Ying bring himself here for?

Could it be ...... They are going to conspire to kill and destroy people!

As soon as he thought of this, Ren Tianxiang immediately became vigilant.

Because he was beaten on the Broken Intestine Cliff, he always thought that Zhang Ying was very dissatisfied because of the ink tree, and at the top of the Broken Intestine Cliff, he really felt the killing intent from Zhang Ying. He believed that if it hadn't been for Xing Lingluo to stop him that day, he might have been beaten by Zhang Ying.

Of course, Ren Tianxiang is not afraid of Zhang Ying's move now. Xuanyuan Qingtian will let his precious apprentice have an accident in the palace for the time being, don't forget, Ren Tianxiang has an anti-scale necklace on his body! If Zhang Ying really wants to do it, it is still a question whether he can break the magic circle created by the anti-scale necklace.

As for Zhang Ying, how would he know what Ren Tianxiang was thinking, and at this time, all his thoughts were transferred to the old man in the courtyard. After hearing the old man's inquiry, he replied very respectfully: "Nie Lao, it's me, Zhang Ying. ”

Looking at Zhang Ying's low-profile actions, Ren Tianxiang was a little surprised.

He knew what Zhang Ying's identity wasβ€”among the entire shadow guards, there were only a few of them who were absolute cronies of the emperor, and they were all people with high status and powerful strength without exception, and Zhang Ying was one of them.

But now, Zhang Ying actually made a respectful gesture to the old man in the courtyard! So, what should this old man be?

"It's Zhang Ying. The old man in the courtyard laughed twice and said slowly, "I know what you're here for, so let people in." It's not easy for this little guy to be teased by you guys like this. ”

With the consent of the old man, Zhang Ying pushed open the courtyard door, saluted the old man in the courtyard, and said, "Since the old man already knows, then I won't bother anymore." Your Majesty has no one around now, so I have to go back first. ”

After speaking, he saluted the old man again, and then turned to leave, leaving Ren Tianxiang alone standing in front of the door of the small courtyard at a loss.

Until now, without the shield of Zhang Ying, Ren Tianxiang could see the old man in the courtyard.

The old man sat in the gazebo of the courtyard, and on the table in front of him was a wine jug, two small wine glasses, and several plates of appetizers that had already been eaten.

The old man was dressed in a dark blue robe, and although his hair was gray and his face was full of wrinkles, he was in good spirits and did not have the sluggish appearance of an old man.

Looking at the old man's appearance, Ren Tianxiang vaguely felt that he had seen this old man somewhere, but now that he thought about it, he couldn't remember where he had seen this old man himself. The old man gave him a sense of familiarity, and he must not be a small person, but he just couldn't remember.

When the old man saw Ren Tianxiang standing at the gate of the small courtyard, he was not annoyed, but just beckoned to the latter, showing a kind smile: "What are you doing in a daze? Come in and sit down, how about having a glass of wine with the old man?"

Ren Tianxiang reacted at this time, hurriedly trotted to the old man's side, saluted the old man, and said "Hello senior" before daring to sit on the stone bench opposite the old man.

The old man nodded with a smile, in response to Ren Tianxiang. Then, he picked up the wine jug and filled the wine glass in front of Ren Tianxiang with wine.

"Senior, this is ......" Ren Tianxiang was puzzled, he was obviously here to find Xing Lingluo, what did this senior pour wine for him?

Listening to Ren Tianxiang's inquiry, the old man added wine to his wine glass, and said casually: "After drinking this glass of wine, I will allow you to go to see Ling'er." ”

As soon as he heard that he could see the star spirit falling, where would Ren Tianxiang hesitate? Without saying a word, he picked up the wine glass and drank all the wine in the glass.

The old man looked at Ren Tianxiang's posture, obviously stunned for a moment, and his hand holding the wine glass shook unnaturally twice. Then, he put down his wine glass, laughed twice, and said, "Okay, okay! Ling'er is in the bedroom at the back, you can go in and find her by yourself." ”

Ren Tianxiang nodded, saluted the old man again, thanked him, and prepared to walk towards the courtyard house.

But it was only as soon as he walked away that he felt a burning heat in his throat, as if there was a fire burning in his chest. A smell of alcohol rushed from his abdomen to his head, which immediately made his brain blank, and he had to tense the muscles of his legs, so that his legs would not go weak and fall directly to the ground.

Ren Tianxiang was obviously defenseless against this sudden feeling, and a surge of wine made his face red.

Struggling to stabilize his figure, Ren Tianxiang heard the old man say leisurely in the gazebo: "Heh, it's good to be young." I don't even dare to drink this wine. ”
