"They. Just went in so openly? ”

The courtyard is bare, surrounded by sycamores, and the snow falls with the yellow leaves, and a pool of clear water ripples in the cold wind is dotted with a little warm yellow that spreads from the hall.

The main hall without a door was cut off by an embroidered phoenix screen, and the hall was pitch black, only a little firelight was cast from the inside, and a bewitching silhouette holding a file was gently hit on the screen, and a lazy and charming female voice came from within, spreading like a snake and scorpion to the man who was half-kneeling in the courtyard:

"It shouldn't be difficult for you to find out with his cultivation, so he did it on purpose to show me?"

The man covered his face in a burqa, dressed in black, and saw his eyes, half-kneeling on the snow in the courtyard, hanging his head:

Subordinates dare not speak falsely."

The woman's voice behind the screen was soft, smiling, but cold:

"I didn't ask you either."

The words fell, and the woman behind the screen was speechless for a while, and the snow courtyard was silent for a while.

The black-robed man didn't say anything, but he didn't dare to leave without the woman speaking, and honestly half-knelt in the snowy courtyard.

As time passed, a little white gradually piled up on the black clothes in the courtyard, but he did not complain, he still knelt meticulously, and his body did not shake in the wind and snow.

He knew very well that the women in the hall would not leave him here for no reason.

I don't know how long it was, but suddenly there was a faint sound of the door opening from the gatehouse of the huge silent courtyard.

The man's drooping pupils shrank slightly.

There was no notice, not even a knock on the door, who would dare to be so bold and directly break into the General Affairs Mansion of the Black Scale Guard in Guangyang City?

Although there were doubts in his heart, he still knelt honestly.

"Squeak—"

"Squeak—"

The sound of stepping on the snow came from behind, and the footsteps were very light and slow.

Chief Lou won't let him go. It should be for this person.

Although he didn't dare to probe the person who came, after strict training and cultivation, he still let the man judge that the other party's cultivation was not high from the footsteps of the person.

After a dozen breaths, the person who came had already walked to his side.

The man in black lowered his eyes and saw a pair of precious Liuyun Horn Boots, and the other party paused slightly as he passed by him, as if he glanced at it, and then continued to walk towards the house.

There was still no announcement, not even a greeting, and the footsteps walked directly behind the screen.

Then there was no more sound.

Looking at the dimly lit hall, Xu Yuan casually turned out a fire lamp and placed it on the desk, leaned on the desk, and looked at the woman opposite:

"Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you miss me?"

The woman is none other than Lou Ji.

Lou Ji was wearing a light-colored silver-trimmed blouse today, with a water-fug. gauze belt reaching her waist, and the smoky hibiscus tail waist-cinching long skirt lined her slender waist even more than she could grasp.

Of course, the corset is more choppy.

But the clothes are closed, and the ravines are gone.

Taking a light breath, Lou Ji raised her eyes and glanced at him coldly, and her tone was gloomy:

"It's useless for my sister to think about it, if you don't go to the branch to find you, I'm afraid that we won't even come to say hello to my sister and leave."

Xu Yuan walked behind Lou Ji with a smile, gently pressed her white shoulders and neck, and argued:

"My sister can't help anyone to show me the way, and I can't find you."

As he spoke, Xu Yuan pressed Lou Ji's soft shoulders and asked:

"When I entered the city today, I watched Guangyang City from the air and it was really lively, is there something going on?"

"What do you say?"

Lou Ji glanced back at the little ghost behind her, leaned lazily on the back of the chair, closed her eyes, and enjoyed the press of the other party's fingertips:

"I've been so tired lately that I've been so tired that I'm going to die, huh. The technique is good, you can use a little force. ”

"Okay." After Xu Yuan got the order, he directly started the exercises.

"A little harder." Lou Ji's beautiful eyes were half-narrowed, and her blue eyes were like washing.

"Hmm."

"You didn't eat today? Hard. ”

"Great."

"Long days."

"Huh?"

"With so much strength, do you need your sister to give you some medicine?"

“.” Xu Yuan.

It's broken, and it's going to be scolded.

As soon as the thought came to mind,

Lou Ji sat up straight with a gentle posture, turned her eyes, the green silk of her sideburns swept between her lips with the wind, and her green eyes stared at him with a slight chill:

"Changtian, sister, I'm curious, how dare you insist on staying in Beifeng at the beginning?"

Here we go

Looking at each other for a while, Xu Yuan grinned:

"Sister, I think I can handle the matter of the North Lockdown."

"Bang!!"

Before the words fell, Lou Ji directly raised her hand and slapped it on the table.

The soft waves swayed, and the solid wood table was directly pressed with a handprint.

Lou Ji stared at Xu Yuan's eyes, and a sneer appeared on Dan Ying's lips:

"You think I'm talking about it? No matter how well you handle it, what can you do? Before I left, I should have told you that you would rather not do it than show your edge, Xu Changtian, what about you? Do you really think that no one will dare to kill you because of your identity?!

"I can tell you, if you show your edge, everyone in this world will let you die!"

"No, where did you tell me about it before you left?" Xu Yuan whispered: "Don't you just let me choose whether to go with you?"

"Bang !!"

This time, the entire desk was shattered into powder.

Lou Ji's airtight broad-mindedness fluctuated with her breathing, and her eyes were full of fierce light:

"If I don't say it, you don't understand?!"

"Yes."

Xu Yuan was simply direct and continued to whisper: "It's just that life is unsatisfactory nine times out of ten"

Wow –

Lou Ji stood up, her high-heeled lotus boots allowed her to look at Xu Yuan at eye level, reached out and grabbed him directly by the collar, pulled him closer, and forced her to look into his eyes:

"I haven't seen you for a few months, and now we've learned to talk back."

"No back-talking."

Xu Yuan stood upright, feeling the touch on his chest, raised his head, and did not squint: "It's just telling the truth, and sister, didn't I come back alive?" ”

Lou Ji was not angry and laughed:

"Surviving is only the beginning."

Xu Yuan blinked his eyes, suddenly held Lou Ji's wrist with both hands, and said with a smile:

"Sister, don't be angry, in fact, I already have the object of suspicion."

“.”

Looking at his smiling face, Lou Ji took a deep breath to calm down her anger, pushed hard and let go of the hand that grabbed his collar, and snorted coldly: "I need your suspicion?" ”

“.”

The huge force that came directly made Xu Yuan take more than ten steps back, and finally sat on the ground uncontrollably.

The surprise in his heart made Xu Yuan not rush to get up, and looked at her standing in the hall, slightly surprised:

"Do you know who did it?"

Lou Ji glanced at him coldly, sat back in the chair and leaned back on the chair, and cocked Erlang's legs and folded his hands around his chest:

"Li Zhaoyuan."

“.”

Xu Yuan got up, patted the dust on his buttocks, trotted back behind Lou Ji, and asked softly while continuing to serve the old aunt:

"My father knows too?"

"I know, but because there is no evidence, Li Zhaoyuan was saved by the emperor." Lou Ji's eyes were cold.

She was unhappy with the decision.

Xu Yuan's movements in his hand stopped slightly, and he muttered, "Is this so?"

Lou Ji snorted coldly when she heard this, and said with a slight yin and yang:

"Changtian, you can rest assured, if you really die, my sister can also send Li Zhaoyuan down to accompany you without evidence."

Xu Yuan smiled wryly and continued to knead her soft shoulders:

"Well, forget it, I don't want to die."

"It's up to you now, and if he leaks the matter, you'll not be at peace in the future."

"Li Zhaoyuan is a smart person, he shouldn't do this."

Xu Yuan's eyes showed a hint of thought, and he shook his head slightly: "Well, at least he won't do this until he returns to Beijing." ”

Li Zhaoyuan's cultivation is much higher than him, and the cultivation of the pseudo-first-grade allows him to face most assassinations calmly.

Even if you die, you can leave traces on the assassin.

But since Lou Ji said that she could make Li Zhaoyuan disappear quietly, she would definitely be able to do it.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan suddenly had a question.

No, does Li Zhaoyuan know about this?

If Li Zhaoyuan didn't know that Lou Ji could make him disappear, then now his information.

“.” Xu Yuan looked at the cloud sideburns on the back of her head.

Lou Ji sighed and said:

"Rest assured. I have warned him about this. ”

Yes, she deserves to be a reliable big sister.

Xu Yuan smiled when he heard this, and pressed his hand even harder.

Lou Ji snorted lightly, and a smile appeared on Dan Ying's red lips:

"So, Changtian, you can tell my sister about it, where have you been in the past few months?"

Xu Yuan's eyes flashed, and his tone was light:

"It's nothing, it's just that he was teleported to the extremely dark land with the barbarian king, and then together with Li Qingyan, he killed the sanctified barbarian king through the Beifeng army array."

Lou Ji frowned slightly:

"Slay the sanctified barbarian king?"

"Yes." Xu Yuan's head.

Lou Ji wrapped her soft fingertips around her arms, thoughtfully:

"The exploits of slaying the holy barbarian king. It seems that Wu Yuan's girl's attitude is becoming more and more important for the imperial city to win the heir in the future. ”

"Sister, I killed the barbarian king with her."

"Poof"

“.” Xu Yuan.

Silence for a moment,

Lou Ji exhaled and stifled a smile, directly skimmed the topic, turned the chair, looked at him and laughed in a low voice:

"Changtian, sister, I heard that you went south on this trip, and you also met the holy woman of the Heavenly Prison Pavilion?"

“.”

Xu Yuan saw the smile in the other party's eyes, and the dissatisfaction in his heart immediately dissipated.

It's broken, and the fun people want to see the fun.

The water that has finally been stabilized may not be spoiled by this fun.

Without any hesitation, Xu Yuan directly changed the topic:

"Yes, but why does she have my uncle's token in her hand?"

"Well, how do I know about your mother's uncle's temperament, sister?"

Lou Ji crossed Erlang's legs, and the high-heeled lotus boots hooked by her white toes shook back and forth, supporting her side cheeks, and directly rounded the topic back:

"But long God, sister, I don't seem to have seen that saint girl yet, why don't you bring her and Wu Yuan together this time to introduce your sister?"

Xu Yuan's face remained unchanged, and he chuckled and said the manuscript directly:

"Actually, I want to do it too, but the two of them are not like me as idlers, one is going to the barracks, and the other is going to see the people of the sect."

I didn't pinch Li Qingyan when I first saw Lou Ji in Beifeng City before, but this time it wasn't necessarily, not to mention that there was the stupidest washboard saint next to her.

Meet?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

The water is too deep, and he, a soul condensation powerhouse, can't grasp it for the time being.

Lou Ji's slender index finger tapped her cheeks, slightly boring:

"Really? Then forget it for the time being, anyway, you can see you in the imperial capital after the matter in the north is over. ”

Xu Yuan's heart was relieved when he heard this, and he suddenly remembered something and looked out of the screen.

A one-way screen allows him to see from the inside to the outside.

The man in black was still half-kneeling in the snow, and the snow on his shoulders had already increased an inch.

After a moment's pause, Xu Yuan asked softly:

"By the way, sister, the person outside."

"He is in charge of monitoring Li Zhaoyuan, and he will come back from this trip to report information." Lou Ji replied casually.

"Oh?" Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows.

Lou Ji said with a smile:

"What, Changtian are you interested?"

"Naturally interested, after all, this guy wants to kill me."

Xu Yuan's eyes flashed with a flash of sharpness, and after a moment's pause, he asked, "But it should be easy for Li Zhaoyuan to discover this black scale guard, right?" ”

When he passed by the man in black earlier, he swept around the other party with his spiritual vision.

The breath was unfathomable, but they were still a little weaker than the washboard saints.

"Yes, that is, to put a piece under his nose to disgust him." Lou Ji's lips snorted.

Xu Yuan hesitated lightly and asked:

"In that case, I don't think there's any useful information."

"There's one thing."

"What?"

“.”

After staring at each other for a while, Lou Ji said in a low tone: "He has a private meeting with the people of the sect alliance in the prince's courtyard tonight. ”

Xu Yuan thought for a moment, without the slightest surprise on his face, and shook his head with a chuckle:

"It's something he can do."

Seeing his calm reaction, Lou Ji asked a little strangely:

"Aren't you surprised?"

"What's surprising?"

Xu Yuan stared at the flying snow in the dark night through the screen: "Sister, do you think that Li Zhaoyuan secretly colluded with the sect in the past, does the saint know about it now?" ”

Lou Jiliu's eyebrows were slightly raised, and a touch of interest flashed between her green pupils, looking at his side face:

"It should be known, I know a thing or two about this kind of thing, sister, there is no reason for the saint not to know now, after all, Li Zhaoyuan has already made it clear that he wants to grab the position of the prince, and there are only a few ways to go."

"Yes, since the emperor and his old man know about this, he forgave him for assassinating Qingyan, and he also saved him in front of his father."

Xu Yuan sighed softly, and his tone carried a touch of murderous intent: "Then it can only mean that he has become the next candidate for the Ninth Five-Year Plan."

"What I can think of, Li Zhaoyuan himself can't think of.

"If I were him, such an important matter would definitely be revealed to the sect and tell them that it was time to raise."

“.”

Snowy nights are silent.

Lou Ji's eyes narrowed slightly, and her voice was very soft:

"Now that the Northern Sect has not been extinguished, and the Sect Alliance is also pressuring, the emperor and his old man can tolerate Li Zhaoyuan and him contacting the sect at this juncture?"

Xu Yuan shook his head lightly when he heard this, looked back and smiled:

"I don't know very well about this matter, after all, what the current saint thinks in his heart, maybe even my father doesn't know.

"Does he want our prime minister to die, or the death of the sect, or before he dies, to completely provoke a war between the sect and the imperial court."

The situation is tense right now.

If the Zongmeng wants to destroy the three continents in the north, it will inevitably exert pressure in other places, and if you don't pay attention to it, a black swan event will occur.

Thinking of this,

Xu Yuan took a deep breath, collected his thoughts, and chuckled softly at Lou Ji:

"Sister, it's still too far to say this, I want to see Li Zhaoyuan now."
