Lu Jinghong was not surprised by this strange way of appearing, this should be the shadow guard of the father who was close to Murong Bai mentioned. It's just that the strange thing is that the face of this shadow guard dressed in black also looks blurred, as if shrouded in a layer of ethereal mist.

As soon as the shadow appeared, he knelt on the ground: "My subordinate is Lone Yan, I have seen the Fifth Highness." ”

"Hello Lone Smoke...... Thanks to you, in fact, I don't need personal protection, and you don't need to call me Fifth Highness, call me Gongzi Hong. Lu Jinghong was very unaccustomed to others kneeling and bowing at every turn, so he thought about it and added: "I don't have to kneel when I see me in the future." ”

Gu Yan still knelt on the ground and said, "My subordinates dare not go against His Majesty's instructions." ”

Lu Jinghong thought to himself that this was a headache, there was such a person lurking around him from time to time, wouldn't it be that Mao Tuan and Xiaoxue couldn't communicate casually, even if they talked and drank with the wine pig and Li Bai, there was always someone around him who was hiding in the dark and eavesdropping, so how could he talk?

As if sensing Lu Jinghong's hesitation, Gu Yan said in a low voice: "Your Majesty ordered, from this time on, your subordinates will only listen to the orders of Gongzi, and except for Your Majesty himself, no one can issue orders to his subordinates." ”

Lu Jinghong thought to himself, this is not what I am worried about, but this also reminds Lu Jinghong, if there is such a person lurking around him at any time, wouldn't all secrets be seen by him? In this way, he also knows all the secrets of his father? Since his father can send him out to protect himself, he must have absolutely no worries about leaking secrets.

Thinking about it like this, his fingers flicked lightly on the table a few times, and he muttered: "I don't want to embarrass you, but since you follow me, what you see and hear, naturally I can't hide it from you......" frowned, and his heart was still very awkward This feeling of being stared at at any time was still very awkward, but he knew that he couldn't help himself at present, so he frowned and said: "How long will my father tell you to protect me?"

Gu Yan bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty entrusts me to follow my son in this life." ”

Lu Jinghong couldn't help but hold his forehead for a while, and a fluttering sentence decided a person's life? Could it be that he would always have such a tail behind him from now on? Sooner or later, he would have to leave this country, and at that time, would he still go out with such a shadow?

I thought it would be better to put some words to the fore. simply said: "Guyan, I won't hide it from you, I will definitely leave this country in the future and wander the world, you don't need to protect me for so long, when I leave, you will return to your father's side, or, when the time comes, I will arrange another place for you." ”

Gu Yan still lowered his head and said, "My subordinates dare not disobey His Majesty's instructions. ”

Lu Jinghong is really out of line now, he can only take one step at a time. sighed and said, "Then, since we will spend a lot of time together day and night in the future, at least let me see your true appearance." ”

Gu Yan's body trembled slightly, as if he was hesitating, but finally made up his mind and raised his head.

It was a very ordinary-looking face, not very old, with a slight beard at the corner of the mouth, and it looked like it was in its thirties, probably because he had been hiding in the shadows all year round, and his face was a little pale.

Lu Jinghong looked at Gu Yan's face blankly, it was a lifeless face, it seemed that in this world, there was nothing to worry about. However, behind this expressionless face, there must be a lot of stories. He sighed and said, "How long have you been with my father?"

Lone Yan was stunned, as if he didn't expect Lu Jinghong to ask this question, seeing that Lu Jinghong didn't say anything else, and habitually covered his face, Fang lowered his head and said: "Sixteen years." ”

Lu Jinghong sighed again in his heart. Sixteen years, judging from the face of Lone Yan less than forty, I am afraid that he began this shadowy career in his teens and less than twenty. Teenagers, this is the most youthful years of people. For more than ten years, he can't get married and have children, he can't fall in love, and he will always guard a person to protect his safety.

Well, since you follow yourself, even if you want to leave, you can let Lone Yan experience that in the world, in addition to being alone, there can be other interesting things. For example, to fall in love, to find a wife, thinking of this, there is no resistance to Lone Yan, but the corners of his mouth show a hint of a smile, and some bad scenes come to mind in his heart.

Seeing that Lu Jinghong didn't know what to think, the expression on his face changed unpredictably, and that meaningful smile made Gu Yan shiver subconsciously, and a trace of uneasiness faintly rose.

Lu Jinghong waved his hand and said, "You go down, you don't have to stay by my side at any time." When Gu Yan's body loomed and was about to disappear, Lu Jinghong suddenly said: "Remember to keep your beard as a small mustache, so that it looks more free." ”

The figure of Lone Smoke froze, almost stumbled, and then disappeared from the room.

Lu Jinghong thought about it, I haven't talked to Mao Tuan for a long time, Xiaoxue has talked well, it's rare to have this free time, anyway, I can't hide it from Lone Yan, so I walked to the window and whistled, and beckoned the two children to come over.

After a while, two small ones appeared on the windowsill, one gray and one white. The hairy group type has not changed much, Xiaoxue is getting longer and more snow-white and cute, the coat color is oily and smooth, and it seems that the hairy group has taken good care of Xiaoxue during this time.

I haven't gotten along privately for more than ten days, and Lu Jinghong also misses this pair of little living treasures, as soon as she appeared, Xiaoxue couldn't wait to jump into Lu Jinghong's arms and rubbed it quite coquettishly. The hair ball also came over and squeezed and rubbed, sniffing around Lu Jinghong. Lu Jinghong laughed angrily: "Stinky boy, what are you sniffing, do I smell like a female cat?"

Mao Tuan rolled his eyes: "What's the meaning of a female cat, even if it's a tigress,...... That's a lot of noise, too. But you do smell strange, stranger. ”

"Have I seen fewer strangers this day?"

"Not like that, this smell is like the one we had when we tracked it, someone was around!"

As he spoke, the hair stood up all over his body, and his small paws were exposed, like lightning rushing to the corner of the house.

I only heard the sound of magnetic sound like broken gold, and the lonely smoke showed his figure from the corner of the house, and he didn't know when there was a short sword in his hand, and the sword light was gray, and his whole body was on guard, and his face was shocked.

Mao Tuan roared, and wanted to pounce, Lu Jinghong screamed urgently, but saw the figure of the lonely smoke flashing, and the lightning and flint dodged the Xiaoxue that was quietly touched at his feet. It seems that the two children have not been idle in the wild these days, this cooperation, tsk, they all know how to pull hatred and sneak attack.

After hurriedly drinking for two hours, Lu Jinghongfang said to Gu Yan: "This is the first thing you can't disclose, about Xiaobai, Xiaoxue's existence." ”

He said to Mao Tuan and Xiaoxue again: "This is Lone Yan, he will be with us for a while in the future, get to know each other, come, shake hands, everyone is friends." ”

Mao Tuan looked at Lu Jinghong suspiciously, but still jumped in front of Lone Yan and stretched out his little paws.

The look of shock on Gu Yan's face had faded, but in the face of this little paw stretched out, he looked a little overwhelmed, hesitated for a moment, and then squatted down and shook the little fluffy paw.

Xiaoxue also jumped over and stretched out her little paws, Guyan also shook it, with a strange expression on her face, nodded at Lu Jinghong, and her figure gradually disappeared into the air.

Lu Jinghongfang turned his head and said to the two novels: "Tell me about what you have seen and heard these days, and then talk about tomorrow's arrangements." ”
