Chapter Twenty-Five: Falling Overboard in Distress

However, most of the grandstand are female guests, and this place should have been taken care of by the hostess, but it is said in this book that the heroine's father and mother died early and died on the battlefield, and the elders in the family have only one old marquis.

There is only one heroine Xie Ninghua in the hostess's family, but she has left home since she was a child, where can I find someone to entertain guests in the entire Xie Mansion.

Naturally, this Xie Shizi is busy with work, and everyone does not doubt him, and even sympathizes with Xie Jing, after all, Hou Ye's body is not good, his sister is sick, and this Xie Shizi, who supports the Xie family, has been infected since he was a child and fell ill.

This tragic situation, today's saints do not want to let go of the slightest intention.

The Xie family is really a bit miserable!

In a short time, the feast began! Since it is a birthday, it is natural to have a banquet!

In addition to holding banquets in the mansion, there are also righteous porridge and meals outside the mansion to help the people, which is considered to be a virtue for the old marquis!

But this banquet did not dare to be too pompous! Everyone knows the situation of the Xie family at this time, where can they dare to make a big fanfare!

This banquet is arranged by the water pavilion, and the Xie family is a thousand-year-old family, and there is a living water as a pool at home, which is connected to the moat in Beijing, which is really spectacular.

Shu Jin sat in the banquet, which was considered to be in the front, after all, his identity was here.

Here the men and women are seated, Shu Jin hangs a gauze curtain in front of him, and looking at the opposite men's seat, he can't see it very clearly.

Alas! How is this, what a sassy operation! I don't even have the opportunity to see a beauty, and the sad thing is that she is a princess, she has to hold a shelf, abide by the rules, and look like everyone is beautiful and reserved on her face, and she doesn't squint, actually! I don't know where the drops have gone!

"Host, look at the back three rows to the left!"

"What?" Shu Jin heard the prompt sound of the artificial intelligence, and couldn't help but reflex and looked in the direction he said.

Sitting in that direction was none other than Ye Hui.

Looking at Ye Hui through the window screen, he sat quietly in his seat, ignoring others, obviously in the lively banquet, but he looked very lonely.

His status is not low, the concubine of the ninth prince of Northern Qi, ranked as a prince, naturally golden, but now he has fallen into Southern Qin, which is comparable to a phoenix with falling hair, and is not as good as a chicken.

He had an extremely difficult time in Southern Qin.

And when he was supposed to come to Southern Qin, it was the second prince of Northern Qi, but in the end, he replaced the second prince.

The person who recommended him was none other than his father, the Nine Emperor Uncle of Northern Qi!

Qi Heng, the uncle of the Nine Emperors of Northern Qi, was originally the most promising candidate to win the throne of Northern Qi in the battle for succession, but he lost the world because of a woman, and that woman finally married his imperial brother, that is, Qi Ming, the current lord of Northern Qi.

It can be said that the beauty is lost in the world.

But he is still very important in Northern Qi, and he still admires the current Queen of Northern Qi, that is, Murong Lan.

This is also a capable woman.

However, the second prince who was supposed to come to Nan Qin to be a proton was her own son, and in the face of Nan Qin's coercion, Qi Heng pushed Ye Hui out without hesitation.

She thought Ye Hui must have been very sad at that time!

He was only four years old, and he went to another country and suffered terribly.

But there has never been anyone who can let him rely on, and he has survived all these years!

Ye Hui on the opposite seat was far away, and through the screen window, it was not so easy to see clearly, but she felt that the expression on Ye Hui's face was also slightly painful.

Ye Hui also seemed to feel the gaze of the other side staring at him, like a conditioned reflex, with a little sharpness, probing the past, but saw the red-clothed man opposite.

Through the curtain, he could see her white and beautiful hands through the cracks in his head.

Ye Hui hurriedly withdrew his eyes, lowered his gaze, and sat quietly, not daring to look up again.

And Shu Jin on the other side just recalled a little bit of the original plot, where could she think of Ye Hui's emotional change.

If she wants to taste it, the only conclusion she can probably come to is that Ye Hui looks good! It's really stunning, even the beauty of the world can't be compared.

But falling in love with a villain, the cost is too high, the cost is too great, no matter how you talk about it, she doesn't have that virgin heart, and she doesn't plan to wade into this troubled water.

Shu Jin retracted his gaze and no longer looked at Ye Hui's side, and Ye Hui raised his head slightly at this time and quietly looked at it, and his gaze was no longer looking at him!

Maybe it wasn't looking at him in the first place! It's just that he's thinking too much!

Shu Jin ate the dishes quietly, toasting wine from time to time, fortunately, the wine prepared for the women's table was not too strong, just some fruit wine, but it was not intoxicating.

I thought that this old marquis would be able to see the second son, that is, the male protagonist, but now that I look at it, I don't seem to have any hope!

The second prince doesn't seem to have any intention of coming at all, and the scene mentioned in the book is also the scene he secretly entered the old marquis's room to ask him to marry the heroine! I don't think so!

The male protagonist didn't come, but the second male came, and there was Lord Shen who delivered the medicine!

In addition, there is also an assassination that Shu Jin did not expect!

Halfway through the feast, arrows suddenly fell from the sky, and the peaceful atmosphere in the banquet became tense, and there were more shouts.

This paragraph is not mentioned in the book, and Shu Jin didn't expect this one, and he couldn't tell the bad luck, why did he have an assassin inexplicably.

This is the foot of the imperial city, and you dare to make such a mistake, it's just tired of it! Shouldn't it be like the routine of ordinary novels, recharge your energy and attack again? It's outrageous!

But compared to this, life is more important in the end.

The guests at the head of the women's table were already frightened, or their legs were weak, and they didn't dare to move at all.

And the elite guards in this Hou Mansion immediately gathered to fight these assassins.

That Xie Shizi stood in the first position to protect the old marquis, and her cheap royal brother, that is, the second male also protected the old marquis, this is a good time to be courteous, so naturally she can't let it go.

Rather than being afraid, Shu Jin felt that she should be more excited in her heart, she should think that this is a game, and she won't really die if she dies anyway, so she has no fear, but she doesn't take it seriously!

And at this time, the arrow feather came and landed at her feet, Shu Jin didn't feel scared anymore, but also frightened, and suddenly she thought, although she didn't have to die, it seemed to be very painful, if she was really shot, and then she didn't die with an arrow, wouldn't it hurt for a while.

Thinking like this, Shu Jin was suddenly afraid!

I'll go, it's very painful! No, no, you can't just die!

If you want to die, you have to have a comfortable way to die.

Shu Jin stepped back, wanting to avoid these arrow feathers, but this assassin was menacing, there were so many people, and this arrow feathers were overwhelming, and they didn't have long eyes, and suddenly a long arrow flew towards her face, and Shu Jin didn't have time to dodge it!

She reflexively closed her eyes, but the arrow did not come at her, only the sound of a "bell" was heard, and the arrow slammed into a sword and shot towards the ground.

And it was Shen Yan who blocked the arrow for her.

"Are you alright?" Shen Yan asked with some concern.

Shu Jin shook his head a little unexpectedly.

But she kind of wants to roll her eyes, it's too much like a TV series routine!

You really have time to ask me if it's okay for such a dangerous plot, so you better kill the assassin quickly!

Shen Yan was relieved to see that Shu Jin was fine, only to see that several assassins in the stands stabbed towards the old marquis, and Shen Yan immediately flew over with a light tiptoe.

And Shu Jin said to the system: "Mentally retarded, hurry up and give me an idea, think of a way!" I can't be a target here! ”

"Okay, host!"

This time, this artificial person resisted the matter, and he didn't bring anything to hide!

"You take one step to the right, two steps to the left, and then you go further...... Here's a calculation of where the arrow will fall! ”

"This is awesome!" Shu Jin couldn't help but want to applaud the artificial retardation! Finally, I've tried to open the plug-in!

But what made Shu Jin unhappy for a long time was that the arrows were all shot towards her as if they had eyes (this is an exaggeration of the host)!

Artificial intelligence must not be able to calculate all at once, not to mention that this system is a half-ass!

Unreliable, too unreliable!

Facing death for the second time, Shu Jin felt that he had become calmer!

However, she was not shot, but was pushed into the pool beside her.

In this cold autumn season, this Xie Fu leads to living water, and it is not cold, and as soon as it falls, she will freeze and cramp.

And it was Ye Hui who pushed her down.

How could she get involved with him again? Shu Jin felt that his brain was extremely clear at this time.

Obviously, the system cheated her, and she thought back and forth, what was wrong!

Not to mention the front, just talking about this falling water, the men's and women's seats are far away, and Ye Hui is even farther away, how can she come to the men's seat step by step, and at the critical moment, she can't calculate the foothold!

This is a serious situation! She doesn't want to play with villains!

And the person in the pool seems to have fainted, he doesn't seem to know how to be watery, Shu Jin is a modern person, she doesn't know if the original owner can swim, but she can swim!

The first time was strangled to death and then thrown into the river! This time is naturally different.

She met Ye Hui's thin lips with some resignation, and sent a little breath to him, and after a while, Ye Hui opened her eyes.

He was very vigilant.

However, the two of them were still close to their lips, and their eyes were facing each other.

The eyes of the person on the other side widened, and Shu Jin was so frightened that he hurriedly let go of him.

Shu Jin dragged him ashore!

This villain really doesn't seem to understand water, and since he helped her dodge arrows in front of her, Shu Jin felt the need to help him once.

Shu Jin is not a big deal, but the villain bass is not so good, he is lying on the shore, supporting it with one hand, and covering his mouth and nose with the other hand and coughing badly, he is choking on water!

And Shu Jin was half sitting on the ground, she still raised her hand to help him smooth out, but when she looked down, she found that her wrist was firmly grasped by the villain.

Feeling Shu Jin's hand, he found that he was still holding his hand, Ye Hui hurriedly let go of Shu Jin, and the hand shrank into the sleeve, and the coughing sound became softer.
