Luoyang City

In this prosperous thousand-year-old city, a retro-style restaurant has been built in the eastern part of the city, with a height of 49 floors, reaching straight into the sky, and the momentum is magnificent. This restaurant named "Moonlight" seems to be born close to the moon, every night, the restaurant will naturally absorb the essence of the stars and the moon, making the whole restaurant shine, which can be called a blessed land.

In this rich city through the ages, being able to build such a skyscraper is enough to show the powerful chaebol of Moonlight Tower, and its strength and power can be seen.

Even the city lords of Luoyang City, as well as the dignitaries of Luoyang, also have a deep and unfathomable sense of the Moonlight Tower. Five years ago, a pair of strange people in the cultivation world, known as the "Soft Sword King", visited the Moonlight Tower at night, but they still ended up with hatred and were forced to act as the guards of the Moonlight Tower.

From this, it was also concluded that the Moonlight Building was a force in the cultivation world.

On the forty-fifth floor of the Moonlight Building, in the spacious hall, there were antique tones everywhere, and on a chair sat a young man, who was the top young man in the cultivation world.

At the bottom of him sat several young men and women, two of whom were the dwarf youth and Pethrin.

"Childe Qiyu, there is a message from the mighty horse farm that Xiao Xiangshuai and You Jingdi have disappeared in the Western Regions. The second manager of the Moonlight Building, a middle-aged man with a big belly, walked into the forty-fifth floor, and he bowed down to Ji Wuming and saluted.

"Missing?" Ji Wusheng's brows furrowed, he had already felt the resistance in advance for the mighty horse farm to enter the Western Regions, so he would send Xiao Xiangshuai to test it first.

Is it the Marshal of the Western Regions Ling Hudong?

Or the Marquis of the Western Regions, Ximen Ao?

Or maybe it's the Dragon Gate Inn?

Extraordinary forces flashed in Ji Wuming's heart, even the horse thief gang in the Western Regions also had the strong strength to destroy Xiao Xiangshuai.

"Also, there has been a young man in the Western Regions recently, and his fame has increased for a while. The second chief manager of the Moonlight Building spoke again, and took out a thick letter from his bosom and handed it to Ji Wuming.

This stack of letters was sent from the Western Regions, Ji Wuming opened the letter paper, scanned all the letters with an indifferent expression, and after a long time, he gently spit out four words - "Desert wolf".

This stack of letters records some recent events in the Western Regions: the destruction of the horse thieves in the Black Wind Village overnight, and the forced entry of 6,000 horse thieves into the Devil's Valley.

These two incidents are inevitably related to Chen Jiadong, and the name of "Desert Wolf" is in full swing in the Western Regions.

In the letter in Ji Wuming's hand, in addition to the recent incidents in the Western Regions, the rest is some information about Chen Jiadong.

"Desert wolf?"

Just this name suddenly made the sleepy young people who were lazy on the side come to their senses, including the dwarf youth and Pei Selin, these invincible young people were all beautiful people in the cultivation world, and they were all unruly.

"Desert Blue Wolf" has the momentum of becoming a legend in the Western Regions, which makes people involuntarily feel their blood boiling.

Ji Wuming glanced at several young people, he could understand the mood of several people, but at the moment he couldn't rush to the Western Regions, he raised his head and said to the second fat manager: "The second manager immediately contacted the 'coyote' in the Western Regions Scorpion patrol, and asked him to secretly find the whereabouts of Xiao Xiangshuai, remember not to act rashly, after Qingzhou's 'Hanmen Performing Arts', I will go to the Western Regions in person." ”

"Yes, Childe. There is also an invitation letter from the lord of Luoyang City, taking advantage of the approaching New Year, to invite the prince to go to the city lord's mansion for a gathering. The fat manager took out a gold-inlaid invitation from his arms again, handed it to Ji Wuming, and said.

"Well, I see, you go get busy first. ”

......

The line of sight enters Nalan Province

The four seasons have entered the middle of winter, and today the sky is overcast and the cold wind is howling. However, in a forest loft in Nalan Mansion, the fire here is burning, warm and comfortable.

In a room on the second floor, the air is fragrant, the setting is elegant, delicate but dignified, this is the boudoir of Nalan Rongqing, quite beautiful and beautiful, a few potted plum blossoms and buds, so not pleasing people.

In front of the dresser, Nalan Rongqing was dressed in mink fur and rested quietly on the table. However, her beautiful forehead is slightly locked, but it indicates that her inner world is not peaceful.

In Nalan Rongqing's dream:

A little girl of seven or eight years old, innocent, she sat in front of a guqin, ten fingers skillfully plucked the strings, the beautiful sound of the tinkling dong spread out one by one, some flowers around her bloomed, and colorful butterflies fluttered when they heard the sound of the qin.

The little girl is beautiful and moving, with bright big eyes that are clear and refreshing, full of agility and intelligence.

"Grace...... Rong Qing ......" rich in emotional voice, affectionately called in the little girl's ear, one after another.

"Brother Xiaoxiao, is that you?"

The voice ringing in her ears made the little girl feel a wave of tenderness, like water as gentle as water to contain her body and mind, only her own smiling brother can make her feel this, she is calm, and her spirit is quiet.

"Brother Xiaoxiao, what's wrong with you?"

With a bang, the strings of the guqin snapped, and the sound of the piano stopped abruptly. The little girl's fingers trembled, she raised her head, and saw the young man in front of her, but her face turned pale in an instant.

In front of her stood a heroic young man, but the young man was in rags, he was injured, and his cheeks were bloody and unrecognizable, and he could not see the handsomeness and chic he should have.

"Brother Xiaoxiao...... Brother ...... smile, "The little girl's big eyes were full of water, and she ran to the young man in a panic, wanting to grab the young man's arm, wanting to share his pain and compassion...... However, the figure of the young man gradually drifted farther and farther away.

Although the young man's face was blurred and she couldn't see her true face, the little girl could still be sure that the young man in front of her was her smiling brother, and no one could give her a sense of peace of mind except him. She cried out, fell and got up again, she stretched out her hands, trying to grasp the figure, but the young man still drifted farther and farther away.

It was like a mysterious world force, pulling the young man away and gradually moving away.

"Brother Xiaoxiao, don't you go...... Brother ...... with a smile."

"Grace...... Graceful ...... Wait until I get back......"

Knock, knock, knock!

The sound of war drums suddenly sounded between the heavens and the earth, and the little girl was horrified to find that the sky was dark, the battle clouds were thick, and a team of soldiers would chase the figure into the distance......

"Brother ...... smile"

Nalan Rongqing, who was lying on the table, screamed from her sleep, and she suddenly got up from her chair...... When she was fully conscious, she realized that the mink fleece on her body had already slipped to the ground.

A dream, a dream like this, made Nalan Rongqing fall into sorrow again...... The knock on the door woke up Nalan Rongqing, and her eyes flashed with a strange light: it turned out that the sound of war drums in the dream was caused by the knocking on the door!

Dreams, hallucinations, reality, whether there is a connection between the three, she can't tell.

"Miss...... It's me, I'm in. Gui Mo outside the door never received a reply from Nalan Rongqing, and the previous scream also made her feel strange, so after knocking on the door to no avail, she greeted and walked straight open the door.

A veil was attached to Nalan Rongqing's cheeks, blocking the change in her expression, but Gui Mo could still feel that her breath was unsteady, Gui Mo walked closer, picked up the mink fleece jacket from the ground, and put it on Nalan Rongqing's shoulders again.

"Miss, what's wrong?" Gui Mo watched Nalan Rongqing grow up since she was a child, and naturally cared for her meticulously, like a close relative.

"Aunt Gui, I dreamed of Brother Hanxiao, he encountered a change and was unrecognizable...... He also said he would come back. Nalan Rongqing's intentions have never been hidden from Gui Mo, she raised her head and whispered sadly in her eyes.

"Smiling boy?"

Gui Mo sighed in her heart, after Hanxiao's accident, Nalan Rongqing felt more and more sad when she grew up, these Gui Mo saw it in her eyes, but she couldn't do anything, no one could say what happened to Hanxiao more than ten years ago.

"Miss, don't worry, the smiling boy is definitely not a person, he will definitely turn evil into good fortune. Do you know what the outside world says about the smiling son, that is 'the most outstanding son brother in Qingzhou', I think the most outstanding person will not die so easily. Gui Mo said hopefully.

"Is this really the case, but more than ten years have passed, can he really come back?" Nalan Rongqing's eyes moved, how desperately she wanted to see the former person again, in order to wait for him to come back, for the love of heaven and earth, she had endured too much.

"It's true!Miss, the 'Hanmen Performing Arts' once in thirty years, this time, Hanxiao Gongzi will definitely come into being. Miss, we can see him in the future, but the current matter is difficult to delay any longer, and the seventeenth prince has come to propose marriage again. ”

Nalan Rongqing has already reached the age of waiting to marry out of the pavilion, and many sons of the family, handsome and talented people, all look forward to her, although Nalan Rongqing covers her cheeks with a veil, but there are still good people to judge: the beauty of her face is almost impeccable, and she can be selected as the top ten in the world.

The beauty is waiting to be married, and its attraction is amazing.

Although there is Qingzhou Hanmen, as well as the deterrence of Nalan Mansion, many matchmakers, amorous scholars, prodigal sons, cauliflower thieves and others dare not act rashly, but there are still huge forces of the prince who are not afraid, and the seventeenth prince of the royal family is a door-to-door proposer.

"Alas...... Where are the people, let's go and see. ”

A sigh contained Nalan Rong's deep helplessness, the royal family had established a dynasty in the world, and it also had an extremely large power in the cultivation world, even if it was as powerful as Nalan Mansion, it could not be easily offended.

The seventeenth prince relied on Dingtian's family background, ignored the marriage contract between Hanxiao and Nalan Rongqing, and repeatedly came to the door to propose marriage, and his behavior was helpless.

Nalan Rongqing and Gui Mo walked out of the attic and came to the front hall of Nalan Mansion, and then the two of them followed a eunuch out of Nalan Mansion and rushed to the largest teahouse in the capital.

The color in the fragrant building is elegant and ancient. However, there are no extra tea customers in today's Xiangmanlou, just because the seventeenth prince of the royal family is staying here, everyone else will retire.

The slightly quiet teahouse made Nalan Rong unhappy, she frowned slightly, and still followed the leading eunuch into the teahouse.

In the hall, a young man in brocade clothes sat on the main seat, accompanied by a gorgeous woman, a woman, and a father-in-law and the shopkeeper of the incense building, standing aside, waiting for the dispatch.

Seeing Nalan Rongqing coming in, the seventeenth prince showed an eager gaze, he immediately stood up from the chair, hurried to greet him, and said, "Miss Rongqing has a beautiful demeanor, thank you for appreciating the light." ”

The seventeenth prince has a family background and a noble status, and no one will easily disobey his will on weekdays, but only this incident makes him unable to overpower others.

Nalan Mansion, an ancient family that was friendly with the royal family, enjoyed the hereditary duke title, and the "Shangfang Sword", which made all the forces in the dynasty jealous. There is also the ancestor of Nalan Mansion who is still alive, this two-hundred-year-old man once called the founding emperor of the dynasty brothers, and his residual power silently shocked the entire government and the opposition.

The seventeenth prince came to the door many times to propose marriage, but he did not dare to be presumptuous in Nalan Mansion, and even felt deeply depressed, so he ordered someone to invite Nalan to accept his affection.

"Little sister, you're here, your temperament is better. ”

The young gorgeous woman who sat with her, she was Nalan Rongqing's cousin, she had already married into the royal family, and she was the ninth sister-in-law of the seventeenth prince. And that woman, she is Nalan Rongqing's aunt and the biological mother of the gorgeous woman.

In Nalan Mansion, it was their mother and daughter who supported the proposal of the Seventeenth Prince the most.

"Graceful and Saint-Ann. The eunuch and the shopkeeper of the teahouse stepped forward and saluted.

"Father-in-law?" Seeing this eunuch, Gui Mo's body beside Nalan Rongqing stiffened, she was on guard in her heart, and approached Nalan Rongqing quietly.

Father-in-law's expression was calm, he glanced at Gui Mo and nodded.

In order to invite Nalan Rongqing this time, the seventeenth prince not only invited Nalan Dieyi and her biological mother to accompany him, but also ordered Xiangmanlou to prepare a table of first-class delicacies. Now that Nalan Rongqing has arrived at Xiangmanlou, it is the best time to have a banquet, as long as the banquet is not dispersed, Nalan Rongqing naturally cannot leave early according to etiquette.

This was planned by the Seventeenth Prince a long time ago, and he only needed one chance...... But the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, and just when he was about to greet the shopkeeper of the teahouse for a banquet, Nalan Rongqing said:

"The seventeenth prince Wanfu Jin'an, the prince invited, and he should obey the feelings, but today is unfortunate, the Taixu real people on the Zhongnan Mountain came to Nalan Mansion to discuss health with the ancestors, and the ancestors were very happy, and they came to Xiangmanlou to purchase Jade Guanyin...... Seventeen princes: Sorry. ”

Belch...... All of a sudden, everyone's faces were stunned, and they were about to leave as soon as they came, what kind of thing is this!

This excuse is too sharp, the people in the entire capital know that Nalan Ancestor likes Jade Guanyin, Nalan Rongqing uses this as an excuse, who dares to stop it!

"The ancestor wants the Jade Guanyin, the shopkeeper, hurry up and prepare, and pack the best Jade Guanyin!"

The expression of the seventeenth prince changed sharply, and finally his expression barely returned to smiling, but anyone could feel that he suppressed a chill - he came to the door several times to propose marriage, was Nalan Rongqing's style too ruthless!

"Good...... Okay, little one...... This is going to prepare, it must be ...... Delivered to ...... in person Naran Province. The shopkeeper of the teahouse trembled, and fled from this place like a wasteland, and the prince was angry, and ten shopkeepers were not enough to vent his anger!

Nalan glanced at the Seventeenth Prince, she nodded slightly apologetically, and then turned around and walked out of the hall.

has been married to Hanxiao since she was a child, and now Hanxiao has changed, and she has endured too much.
