Xiao Qian looked suspicious, but she still subconsciously bent down to help the veteran, looked at it carefully, and asked, "Are you ...... Do you recognize me? ”

"No matter how old and dizzy the little old man is, it is impossible not to recognize the third young lady, you are the life-saving benefactor of the little old man's family. If it weren't for the third lady interceding for our family in front of the Hou Ye, my family of seven would have been buried outside Yuzhou City a long time ago, how can we still be today......"

Saying that, he seemed to be afraid that Xiao Qian would still not be able to remember himself, so he hurriedly said: "Ten years ago, Xiao Lao'er lost the grain and grass in the army because of his ineffective work......

"It's you, Uncle Li!" Xiao Qian finally remembered the past and recognized the other party, her face was full of surprise, "Haven't you always been on an errand in Yuzhou?" How did you get here? ”

The veteran also smiled, and the life-saving benefactor finally recognized him, so he hurriedly replied: "Didn't I make a big mistake back then, although I can avoid death, but I will be punished after all." So Hou Ye sent me to Baishui Pass, and this guard is ten years.

"But I don't have any resentment, I deserve it. And Master Hou is also very important to my two sons, and he didn't deny them a chance because I made a mistake at the beginning, and now they are adjutant generals in the army......"

The veteran was very excited, and he babbled a lot, and even had the meaning of truthfully explaining the situation and changes in his family in the past ten years to his benefactor.

Xiao Qian could only listen quietly, but a pair of wonderful eyes couldn't help but glance at Sun Ning, and there was already a bit of weakness in her eyes.

Sun Ning also kept quiet, with a smile on his face, and kept looking at Xiao Qian.

The two of them "flirted with each other", but in fact, they didn't take the trivial things that the veteran said to heart too much.

In the end, the veteran finished everything and made a summary: "If it weren't for the third young lady to intercede for me, my family would be completely finished." So I've always wanted to repay you...... By the way, Miss Three, how did you come to such a remote place as Baishuiguan? ”

"That's how I got into Shu."

"Are you going home? I think Master Hou should miss Miss San very much. ”

"Maybe. By the way, Uncle Li, you should have an errand with you, is it good to delay here? ”

Xiao Qian's sentence was a reminder of the other party, and he sighed and said, "What the third lady said is that I really forgot about business." Say goodbye today, and thank Miss San in two days. ”

With that, he bowed again, and then hurried away.

At this time, Xiao Qian couldn't take care of him, but peeked at Sun Ning on the side, and met his eyes full of meaning: "You...... What do you mean? With a weak heart, she can only attack first.

"The third lady of the Hou family...... If I'm not mistaken, now the land of Sichuan and Shu can be called the Hou Ye, only the Dingxi Hou family, right? Sun Ning continued to look at her with a smile and said, "But didn't someone keep emphasizing that he just happened to be surnamed Xiao and was an ordinary woman from the Sichuan and Shu families?" ”

Xiao Qian was speechless for a moment, and after a while, she suddenly asked again: "By the way, what did you want to tell me just now?" What do you say you are the emperor? ”

"This ......" Sun Ning was interrupted just now, but he was easily plucked up, and now he is really a little hesitant.

But after thinking about it again, the identity of the other party is no longer an ordinary woman in the rivers and lakes, and she has nothing to hide, so she said bluntly: "I said that I am the Emperor of Dayue, do you believe it?" ”

"You are the Emperor of Dayue?" Xiao Qian's face was full of disbelief, and she pouted and shook her head, "How can there be an emperor like you?" ”

"Then what do you think the emperor should be like? At a young age, you still have to follow the rules in everything you do, just like a wooden man? ”

"This ......" Xiao Qian was speechless again, has she ever seen the emperor, how do you know what it should be like?

But in an instant, she remembered the statements she had heard before about how mediocre and absurd the current emperor was, which of course could not be compared to the man in front of her.

But there is one thing that can be compared, and that is age.

The emperor seems to be about the same age as Sun Ning, and he is also surnamed Sun, but ...... He's not ridiculous.

Well, the adventure of snatching the knife on the plank road today is actually quite ridiculous, but this absurdity is quite different from the absurdity of the legendary faint king.

It's just that when she looked at Sun Ning again, she found that his expression was surprisingly solemn, and his eyes were staring at herself for a moment, which made Xiao Qian feel that his heart was beating faster, and at the same time, she also felt that his words were true.

"You...... You say you're really the emperor? ”

"Well, my name is actually Sun Ning, and Sun Changan is just a pseudonym. As for the Emperor, a few years ago he may have been, but now, he is just a fallen monarch who has not even been able to stand in the land......"

Xiao Qian looked at Sun Ning with a complicated expression, and couldn't say anything for a long time.

The impact of this identity is too great, it is the emperor, even if it is the original emperor, the identity is unimaginable to her.

In particular, his family is still loyal to the Dayue court, and he can be regarded as his courtier.

She stopped talking, but Sun Ning continued to speak: "What about you? Are you really the third lady of the Dingxi Hou family? ”

"Well, my name hasn't changed, but my identity is indeed hidden."

"Then why did you get into the rivers and lakes? And you have always said that you have been learning swords in Kunlun for more than ten years......"

"That's true, too. I have been favored by my master since I was a child, and then my father only paid attention to a few elder brothers, but he allowed my daughter to go to a distant place, so I went. ”

Sun Ning sighed softly, in this era, the status of women is indeed not high enough, even if they are the daughters of noble families, they will be despised.

Sun Ning, who didn't want to be unpleasant anymore, quickly changed the topic: "No wonder you knew so much about the affairs of the Tang Sect before, this can be regarded as a family history, right?" ”

The Xiao family is based in Sichuan and Shu, so they naturally have to have some friction with the Tang Sect, which is also rooted here, and they know a lot about them.

At the same time, Sun Ning finally understood why Xiao Qian was willing to accompany her to Sichuan and Shu, although her father was not very good to her, but after all, she was a family. She is naturally hostile to the Tang Sect who wants to seize control of Sichuan and Shu, so she wants to eradicate them.

Xiao Qian nodded and agreed with Sun Ning's statement.

Then the two of them just like this, you look at me, I look at you, fell into a short silence.

The relationship between the two is actually very good, and they are only a little short of agreeing with each other.

And this time, the two found out that the other party actually had such an important thing to hide from them, which was actually quite amazing, both angry and funny......

Finally, after being silent for a long time, Xiao Qian suddenly burst out laughing, and then Sun Ning also laughed and said, "This time I hid it from you, and you also hid it from me, so it can be regarded as everyone's evenness, right?" ”

"yes, it's ...... flat"

Xiao Qian nodded, looked at each other, and suddenly Sun Ning took a step forward and hugged Xiao Qian into his arms.
