The official with the knife didn't know when he turned around, looking at the fading backs of the three of them, the surprise on his face could no longer be suppressed, until the fine snowflakes dyed the ends of his hair white, he slightly closed his long-open mouth, shook his head and whispered helplessly.

"Xiao Xue... I'm so stupid, isn't this the name of the eldest princess... No wonder I haven't seen the eldest princess in the past few months, it turns out that she went to Yuelu Academy. ”

......

Follow Xiao Xue through the spacious Vermilion Bird Avenue, a few points closer to the direction of the Forbidden City, and after two more turns, he came to the door of a majestic mansion.

In front of this continuous vast, almost as big as two mansions in the outer city, there is a golden plaque on a black background hanging at the door, the word "Xiao Mansion" is written on it, and an unknown red seal is also printed in the lower right corner of the plaque, although I don't understand what it means, but I always feel that it looks like a card.

"Xiao Xue, this plaque in your house is very well maintained." Nie Yun looked up and said casually: "It's like a new one." ”

"Ahh Chinese New Year... Of course, wipe it clean! Ha ha. Xiao Xue's slender jade fingers wrapped around a strand of broken hair around her sideburns, a pair of beautiful eyes wandered around, seeing that Nie Yun was still looking, she simply pulled Nie Yun's back collar directly: "Eh, don't worry about it, come in quickly." ”

"Eh, eh." Nie Yun was dragged by the back collar, the whole person formed a sixty-degree angle with the ground, and his hands waved helplessly, and he was slowly dragged into the mahogany rivet gate... Han Yue, on the other hand, gently stroked her chin and followed.

"Didn't you say that the rules of the family are heavy, and you can't open the middle door if you have nothing to do." After dusting off the snow on his trousers due to being dragged, Nie Yun straightened up and said helplessly: "Why is this just casually opened." ”

"Hey, Miss Ben's family, Miss Ben has the final say." Xiao Xue raised her head slightly, revealing her snow-white neck.

"Hehe..." Looking at Xiao Xue's arrogant appearance, Nie Yun was a little speechless, and simply looked at the ridiculously large mansion in front of him.

The walls, patios, courtyards, and pavilions are all presented in Nie Yun's eyes, and their luxury and exquisiteness can be glimpsed from the wall inlaid with light gilt decorations.

"Let's go, Yueyue, my mother said that she wanted to invite you to a meal, hehe had already said that she would invite you to try my cook's skills." Xiao Xue walked forward while holding Han Yue's hand, and didn't forget to glance back at Nie Yun's expression: "Hey! The dirt bun in the back is almost there. ”

Following Xiao Xue through a winding corridor, her eyes suddenly lit up, different from the towering buildings in front of her, the hall in front of her was extraordinarily small and exquisite, and the dim candle flames were quietly swaying around, adding a bit of warmth to the entire hall.

In the center of the hall, there is a mahogany round table, which is not big, and it can sit around five or six people, and at this time, a beautiful woman is sitting in the first place, seeing Han Yue and Nie Yun, she smiled slightly, and said: "I wanted to invite you to a family banquet last time we met, and now I finally have a chance, sit down." The words are soft, giving people an indescribable sense of tenderness.

The beautiful woman was dressed elegantly, and there was no gorgeous bun on her head, but there was a graceful and luxurious bearing unconsciously exuded between her smile, which made Han Yue and Nie Yun both feel a little restrained, and honestly sat on the side of the round table, while Xiao Xue sat on the left side of the beautiful woman with a smile as if she didn't notice it at all, and then pulled Han Yue out of the corner and sat beside her.

"Mother, I will officially introduce you, this is Han Yue, Yueyue." Xiao Xue finished introducing Han Yue with a smile, then turned her head slightly and glanced at Nie Yun casually, "As for the other one, his name is Nie Yun." ”

In addition, that... Okay, the corners of Nie Yun's mouth twitched slightly, and he said hello to Han Yue together.

As a few people sat down, the exquisite and unusual food was also quickly served, and after a few casual greetings, they began to eat.

Xiao Muyu's fingers moved lightly, every move was in line with the etiquette law, and the standard food was not spoken, but Xiao Xue was not so taboo, pulling Han Yue Nie Yun, who was still a little restrained, talking and laughing about interesting things in Kyoto, commenting on the advantages and disadvantages of food.

Driven by Xiao Xue, Nie Yun and Han Yue also began to gradually let go, and the sound of small laughter echoed in the hall from time to time, and Xiao Xue's mother didn't think it was allowed, with a hint of a smile in her eyes, quietly watching the frolic between the juniors, tasting delicious food.

"There are a few guests at home today." Suddenly, a hearty voice came from outside.

When everyone heard the voice, a tall figure dressed in a dark robe stepped over the threshold and walked in.

"Dad, aren't you in the palace, how did you have time?" Xiao Xue showed a hint of surprise in her eyes, then stood up and hugged her father's arm with a smile. It is normal to be able to live at the foot of the palace and enter the palace, so Xiao Xue is not worried about what Nie Yun will associate with.

"Why are you still like a child?" Father Xiao showed a hint of pampering in his eyes, touched Xiao Xue's head with a smile, and then slightly pressed Xiao's mother, who subconsciously wanted to get up from the main seat, and sat next to Nie Yun casually.

Father Xiao's smile was calm and his movements were casual, but it made Nie Yun inexplicably feel a little stressed. Nie Yun nodded with some restraint and said, "Uncle Xiao is good." ”

"Hehe, hello." Father Xiao nodded with a smile and said, "Your name is Nie Yun, I often hear Xiaoxue mention you, very good young man." ”

"Uncle Xiao praised it falsely." Nie Yun nodded lightly and politely politely.

"Is there nothing going on in the palace now?" Xiao's mother gently put down the chopsticks in her hand, and her translucent beautiful eyes showed a little doubt, around the New Year, but he, the emperor, was the busiest time, and the three palaces and six courtyards were indispensable for greetings, this is the third day of the new year, if it was a day or two in the morning, she, the queen, would not be free to accompany her daughter.

"There was still something going on." Father Xiao shook his head with a smile, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes: "But I think there is something more important, and I need to come over and talk to you." ”

"Oh?" Xiao's mother showed a curious look, her fair cheeks were slightly slanted, and a pair of bright and beautiful eyes that were seven points similar to Xiao Xue looked at Xiao's father without blinking.

"Don't look at me like that, it's not a good thing, anyway, if you know, you'll have to scold me." Father Xiao showed a wry smile, turned his head and glanced at Xiao Xue on the side as if unintentionally and shook his head.

Subconsciously feeling a little bad, Xiao Xue tried to fool and said: "Hehe, since it's not a good thing, don't say it, after all, it's a big New Year." ”

Well?

Xiao's mother's eyes narrowed slightly, her daughter knew that she was afraid that there was something to hide from her in this inexplicable manner, and then her pretty face rose slightly, and she turned her head to look at Xiao's father and said lightly: "Say." The voice was flat and cold, but there was a smell of not being angry and arrogant.

"Ahem, I also learned that Xiaoxue suffered an assassination on the 26th of the lunar month." Father Xiao's voice was a little dull, not as full of breath as just now.

"What?" Xiao Mu stood up directly in shock, ignoring any manners and etiquette, her eyebrows were locked almost instantly, and she turned her head and pulled Xiao Xue's slender white arm to look up and down.

"Mother... I'm fine. Xiao Xue silently lowered her head, and a jade finger curled and curled a strand of hair on her sideburns.

"Shut up for me." Xiao Mu directly interrupted Xiao Xue at this time, and only exhaled a long breath after a while.

"You don't even tell your mother about such a big thing!" Xiao Mu sat back on the main seat, and her pretty face was no longer deliberately stiff, but really cold.

Although Xiao's father is also very angry, he can't help but feel a little distressed when he sees his queen so angry, and hurriedly walks behind Xiao's mother to straighten out her somewhat disordered breath: "Eliminate the gas, eliminate the gas, Xiaoxue, isn't she afraid that we are worried." ”

"And you!" Xiao Mufeng was stunned, turned her head and pointed the finger at Xiao's father: "What kind of father!" It was a week before my daughter was assassinated! ”

"How do I know that there can be an accident in Yuelu Academy..."Father Xiao was also very helpless: "If it weren't for the assassin who escaped from prison two days ago, and the matter went to the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, I wouldn't have known about it now." ”

"What the hell is going on! What assassin, also jailbreak? Xiao Mudai's eyebrows tightened, and her voice was still cold.

"On the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, Xiaoxue and her two friends came back from a mission in the far north, and encountered a group of assassins ambushed on the way, and..." Speaking of this, Father Xiao paused deliberately, glanced aside and sat quietly on the side, trying to reduce his sense of existence, and the senior sister and brother continued: "Then the assassins were all killed, and there was still a living mouth. ”

When he told Xiao's mother, he was afraid that she would worry, so he deliberately concealed the strength of the assassin, but he knew it clearly, one eight-vein consummate martial cultivation plus ten rebirth realm martial cultivators, to be honest, when Shangshu of the Criminal Department had just reported to himself, he almost crushed the ivory pen!

If he hadn't had enough confidence in the life-saving objects he left for Xiao Xue, he would have almost lost his temper and grabbed the collar of Shangshu of the Criminal Department!

However, when he heard that all the assassins were counter-killed, and even left a living mouth, he was rarely stunned, he still had points at what level his daughter had, and it was difficult to deal with an assassin, let alone such a group of assassins, and because of Xiaoxue's own strength, the life-saving means he gave her were basically used to passively defend or escape, like those red fire spirit talismans used for attack, and even Xiaoxue herself can barely do it now.

In other words, this group of assassins was basically solved by his two classmates. And these two classmates are apparently the same as his daughter, who have only been enrolled for one year... This talent, even he can't help but smack his tongue secretly.

"And then?" The knot in Xiao's mother's eyebrows quietly loosened a little, but she still continued: "How do you know now, a busy man?" ”

"Originally, the matter was almost here, Xiaoxue and they notified the local government, although the local government didn't know Xiaoxue... But seeing that it was the students of the University Hall who were assassinated, he did not dare to slack off, so he immediately notified Yuelu Academy and investigated it thoroughly. Father Xiao spread his hands helplessly.

"But these people are all recruited from the dark market, what can be found, the only clue that is quite useful is the appearance of the leader... So the case was put on hold for the time being. It wasn't until the only living mouth suddenly escaped from prison that the case got bigger again, and it was taken over by Shangshu of the Criminal Department himself, and then he saw that there was Xiaoxue's name, so he hurriedly ran to tell me. ”

Although Xiao's mother knew that he really couldn't be blamed for this, after all, even she didn't expect Xiaoxue to have any accidents in Yuelu Academy, but she still couldn't help but sigh angrily: "In the end, it's useless for you to be a father." ”

And Xiao's father can only helplessly respond to Xiao's mother's criticism, the fact is that in the big dry realm, someone dares to do something to his daughter!

As soon as he thought of this, a ray of light burst out from the tiger eyes of the founding emperor, and there was an indescribable majesty and coldness in his plain words: "I want to see who ate the bear's heart and leopard gall and dared to do it to our daughter." ”

And Nie Yun, who was sitting next to Father Xiao, felt the coldness almost up close, and the hairs on his body were uncontrollable and quietly erected...
