The moonlight dissolves, and in the center of the lake are nearly ten two-storey gorgeous painting boats lined up, with brilliant lights and brilliant lights.

The light is reflected in the lake, and the moonlight is reflected in each other, hazy and gorgeous.

In the distance, you can also hear the ethereal singing and music on the painting boat, which can be heard faintly in the moonlit night.

This painting boat comes from the most famous brothels in Yingdu, and each of them has selected the most brilliant lady to compete for the name of the Oiran of the Shangyuan Festival.

Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, dance, music and singing can all be compared.

It coincides with the festive season, and the beauties perform, and those princes and nobles are naturally happy to come here to have fun. As a result, there are quite a few boats on the lake heading there.

Xiao Lingjiang's painting boat left the shore and slowly paddled towards the center of the lake.

This lake is the largest lake in Yingdu, called Jianqiu Lake, the water area is wide, if you want to row from the shore to the center of the lake, it still takes some time.

However, just halfway through, the hull of the ship suddenly shook, and then stopped.

The tea in his hand poured out under the agitation and splashed on Xuan Heng's body, Xuan Heng looked at the water color on his robe, and his eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly.

Xiao Lingjiang raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked loudly, "What happened?" ”

He Zheng came in from outside, bowed down and said, "Back to the princess, it was someone else's painting boat that accidentally bumped into us." ”

Xiao Lingjiang snorted: "What's the big deal?" ”

"The subordinates seem to be fine." He Zheng said.

However, not long after he finished speaking, there was a lot of noise outside, and there seemed to be a quarrel.

Xiao Lingjiang frowned: "What's the matter?" ”

After He Zheng went out to explore, he hurriedly came: "The other party insisted that it was us who collided with them, and clamored to let the princess go out in person to apologize." Do you want to reveal your identity? ”

Xiao Lingjiang didn't want to make a big splash on this trip, plus their painting boat looked ordinary, compared to the gorgeous painting boats of those clans, it was really not conspicuous enough, and I thought that the person was relying on his power to deliberately bully people.

"Oh?" Xiao Ling Jiang raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's obviously my own fault, but I want to beat it upside down." I'm going to see who is so arrogant. ”

She looked sideways at Xuan Heng on the side: "I'll come when I go, you sit first." ”

Xuan Heng nodded: "Okay." ”

Xiao Lingjiang took He Zheng and Qingzhu out of the painting boat, Xu saw her coming, and the noise outside finally calmed down.

But it's too quiet.

Xuan Heng frowned.

This painting boat is not big, and there are naturally not many people on the boat, but it is He Zheng Qingzhu brought by Xiao Lingjiang, two boatmen, and he and the two maidservants around him.

Now that Xiao Lingjiang is taking people out, only he and the maidservant are left.

The freshly brewed tea in the furnace is steaming hot. In the rising white mist, the voices outside seemed to be getting farther and farther away. The small human voices, the ethereal singing on the painting boat in the distance, seemed to be separated by a heavy wall.

"That's not right!"

With a flick of the teacup in his hand, he missed the sword that was coming straight at him.

However, even so, the chilling sword aura still cut off a strand of long hair on the side of his sideburns.

Taking advantage of the moment when L came to carry the sword, Xuan Heng waved his palm on the side of his waist slightly, and the wheelchair under him quickly retreated with him.

At the same time, the two maidservants beside him drew their soft swords from their waists and met them.

can choose the servant girl who accompanies him since he was a child, naturally he is not an ordinary person, and he is also a first-class master in martial arts. The two wielded swords in perfect harmony, and if they were ordinary assassins, not to mention defeated by the two of them, it would definitely be difficult to have the spare strength to take care of the others.

But the masked man in black in front of him was very human, and in one move, he forced the two maidservants to stumble.

With a wave of the long sword in his hand, a servant girl was shocked by the sword qi and flew out, slamming into the wall of the ship. Immediately after a slight turn of the wrist, the other servant girl was scratched by his sword qi before she could react, and the whole person was forced to retreat again and again by the sword blade.

The servant girl gritted her teeth and raised her sword to block it, but saw that the man suddenly retreated, turning into a black streamer and rushing towards Xuan Heng.

"Lang Jun!" The maid's eyes widened.

This sword is aimed at his vital point, carrying endless killing opportunities.

Xuan Heng's eyes shrank suddenly, and his hands slapped on the armrests on both sides of the wheelchair, and the whole person flew up, narrowly avoiding his sword.

The man in black pulled up his sword flower, retracted his sword momentum, and raised his eyebrows in surprise as he looked at him.

I saw that Xuan Heng, who was originally sitting in a wheelchair, was standing on the side so vividly, and his quick reaction was as bad as usual.

Since you can't pretend to it, then you won't pretend it.

Xuan Heng's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he took out two killing talismans from his sleeves and threw them at the man in black.

He has been weak since he was a child, and the martial arts he learned are just the way to escape for his life, but he still has some attainments in the occult arts.

Although he is not as good as Xiao Lingjiang in terms of spells, these two killing talismans to control the enemy are painted by him with all his heart.

No matter how strong the opponent's martial arts are?

His eyes narrowed slightly, but he saw that the other party raised his sword to block it, and at that moment, the momentum around the man in black seemed to change.

In the awe-inspiring sword intent, the killing talisman shattered in response to the anger, turning into ashes and slowly falling under his feet.

Break the law with a sword.

Xuan Heng's eyes shrank, it was Pei You, the prince of Zhenbei!

Sure enough, today's invitation is a game.

When he received Xiao Lingjiang's post, he was slightly suspicious. But he knew that he had always shown that he was quite interested in Xiao Lingjiang, and today he was invited by her but rejected her, which would only make her more suspicious.

And so he came.

When Xiao Ling Jiang mentioned the person who set up the octagonal glass mirror, he suspected that she was tempting. But as long as she doesn't show her flaws, she can only give up if she can't find evidence.

But he didn't expect that Xiao Lingjiang would directly find Pei You to pretend to be an assassin to attack him, forcing him to get up and dodge.

Xuan Heng put away the surprise on his face, and asked with a smile: "Pei Shizi, I don't know where I offended you, and I provoked you to draw your sword against you?" ”

Pei You saw that his identity was exposed, so he simply didn't hide it, he tore off the black scarf and said coldly: "It's not enough to offend." It's just that seeing your face, it's a little unpleasant. ”

Xuan Heng chuckled lightly and touched his cheek: "Could it be that the prince of the world is jealous of my appearance?" My face is good-looking, and I have always liked it by little ladies......"

"Today, it is obviously Princess Yong'an, but the prince suddenly appeared here and drew a sword from me, could it be that he also has something in mind about the princess?"

Also?

Pei You's face was covered with a thin layer of frost, and he snorted coldly: "With your face, you can't be my jealousy." ”

His hand holding the sword moved slightly, as if he was about to pick up the sword again.

Xuan Heng's eyes lit up: "The son of the world is so reckless, he is not afraid of being too clear and obscure, and he is not afraid that the saint will know?" ”
