Xiahou Ninghan's tone was very gentle, but Murong Xue and Shan Tingxian stopped in their ears, but they couldn't help but look at each other, their faces full of embarrassment. Both of them are well-informed old rivers and lakes, and they have never encountered any scenes, but at this moment, they were stunned by the girl in front of them.

Murong Xue twisted her body slightly, and said slightly apologetically, "Please also ask Miss Xiahou to forgive her sins." As you might expect, we ...... We are indeed all officials of the imperial court, and we are going to Bianzhou this time because we have official business. Well...... It is inconvenient to disclose my identity, and I hope for understanding. What this single brother said just now is true, but those who attacked us halfway should not be ordinary thieves, but killer assassins who came specifically against us. ”

Xiahou Ninghan was a little satisfied when he saw that he was willing to tell part of the truth, and bowed his head slightly: "That's right." Mr. Murong and Mr. Shan, please rest assured, although my small villa does not have a resounding name and status in the rivers and lakes, it is still within my power to provide you with a place to shelter. You cultivate here, and when Li Gongzi's health is better, then make plans. ”

Shan Tingxian was a little uneasy and said: "Girl, it's not that Shan Mou is too careful, I am a straight person and speak straight, please don't be surprised." The people who want to deal with us are not ordinary good people. When they see us escaped, they will not give up. It may not be long before we find this place, and by then...... At that time, I am afraid that you will also be affected, and whether you can protect yourself is a question. ”

Hearing this, Xiahou Ning Han first smiled slightly, then was beautiful and light, and his beautiful eyes were faintly evil, and he said proudly: "Ning Han doesn't understand the grievances and disputes between you and those people, and he can't tell which is right and which is wrong. However, since the three of them were rescued by me, they were my guests. I can't control what happens outside, but if someone wants to go wild in Xianxia Villa, they must first weigh their father's temper. ”

Murong Xue was slightly stunned, and couldn't help asking, "Oh, by the way, haven't you asked the old sect master's name yet?" ”

Xiahou Ninghan replied indifferently: "Those of you who are big officials, you may not have heard of your father. My father's single name is a plum character. ”

"May? Xiahou ...... Plums? Murong Xue and Shan Tingxian glanced at each other in surprise, and then exclaimed in unison: "Three friends of the cold year, Xiahou Mei?!" ”

It is no wonder that Murong Xue and Shan Tingxian's reaction was so great.

More than 30 years ago, the three friends of the cold year: pine and cypress, green bamboo, and cold plum, that is a famous person all over the world and famous in the rivers and lakes. At that time, these three people were the most dazzling stars in the Holy Tang Dynasty, talented and heroic, and their legends are still widely praised and talked about today.

What's even more rare is that the three of them are still friends in distress, and they once treated each other with all sincerity, working together to punish adultery and eliminate evil and show justice for the court and the people.

Among them, the "pine and cypress" headed by him was the official worship of Shangshu Zuo Servant, and later served as the Taifu, leading the Nian Jinsong of the Holy Religious Covenant. The second-ranked "Qingzhu" is the sect leader of the Taoist sect - Qingzhu Daochang.

And "Hanmei", who can shoot with Shangshu Zuo and Taoism, is just a civilian with no official or position.

He is Xiahou Ninghan's father, Xiahou Mei.

Xiahou Mei was originally born in a famous family, and her ancestor was Xiahou Jing, one of the twelve heroes of the founding of the Holy Tang Dynasty. Two hundred years ago, the Central Plains scholars crossed eastward, and many wealthy families marched into the fertile land of Jiangzuo, but the bloodline of Xiahou Meizu did not follow the flow and always insisted on developing in the north. Later, after several generations of changes, with its profound family heritage, it stood tall and was known as the four wealthy families in the north together with the Cui family in Jinzhong, the Liu family in Xiangzhou and the Chen family in Bozhou.

Xiahou Mei has been gifted and intelligent since she was a child, and she has stood out among the children of the same sect before she was a weak crown, and has won the love and respect of the elders of the family.

One of the biggest characteristics of this person is that he has a wide range of interests. I'm curious about everything, I like everything, and I want to dabble in everything. And what's even more surprising is that this guy is so smart, no matter what, he can almost learn it as soon as he learns, and he will be good at it after a while, so that those teachers who teach him often feel ashamed, and he has been working for half a lifetime but he can't compare to the level of half a year, which can be described as a real genius.

When he was twenty years old, Mei Gongzi was deeply fascinated by legends such as rangers and heroes, so despite the dissuasion and opposition of his family, he gave up the imperial examination to seek fame, and resolutely left his hometown and began to ride alone in the sword world.

Xiahou Mei searched all over the famous mountains and rivers, visited the martial arts masters from all over the country, learned while walking, practiced while learning, and fought while practicing, and gradually integrated the kung fu of each school in actual combat, and became a vein of its own. It took seven or eight years of hard work to really make him famous.

By chance, he got acquainted with Nian Jinsong and Qingzhu Daochang, who were about the same age as him, and the three of them were like-minded and became irreversible friends, and then they joined forces to solve several shocking cases that shook the government and the opposition.

Xiahou Mei, who has become famous, did not feel fluttering because of this, because he saw all the ugliness of the rivers and lakes, he slowly lost the yearning for the heroic life when he was a teenager, so when he was nearly forty years old, he chose to retire to Linquan.

However, not long after retiring, Xiahou Mei, who "couldn't be idle for a moment and liked to toss blindly", suddenly became interested in the Taoist technique of ascending to immortals. He began to question it, but gradually turned to in-depth pondering and research, and finally turned to conviction and unswerving.

So, in this secluded manor of the Xiahou family, Xiahou Mei created the "Flying Immortal Sect", and called a group of young people who like to play and have excellent foundations, and accompanied him to practice the method of ascension all day long.

This is where the name of the suzerain comes from.

More than a year ago, the old sect master Xiahou Mei had just passed his fiftieth birthday, but he didn't expect the imperial capital to suddenly hear the bad news that Taifu Nian Jinsong had died of illness. The loss of his best friend made him feel very sad, and the usual practice of "free and easy" was also left behind by him. Xiahou Mei silently packed her bags and explained to the disciples of the sect, and in the future, her daughter Xiahou Ninghan inherited her great cause of becoming an immortal, and he was going to the imperial capital to bid farewell to his old brother Nian Jinsong, and then went to Zhongnan Mountain to find Qingzhu Daoist, and pulled him to travel all over the world, looking for immortals and visiting saints.

Xiahou Ninghan knew that his father was depressed because Uncle Nian died of illness, so he wanted to go out for a walk, so he didn't stop him, and happily took over the responsibility of "Flying Immortal Sect".

Nearly two years have passed, and Xiahou Mei has not heard from him, and he doesn't know when he will come back. Maybe another two years to wait, maybe tomorrow.

Because of Murong Xue's relationship with Nian Jinsong, she also knows more about the affairs of the three friends of the year. When Nian Taifu was alive, he would often tell Murong Xue some anecdotes about the three of them back then.

Therefore, in Murong Xue's opinion, Xiahou Mei is like an uncle of his, although he has never met, he has a natural sense of intimacy. Today, by mistake, he met Xiahou Mei's daughter here, and he couldn't help but feel emotional, and said: "Miss Xiahou, it's really not a secret, if you discuss it carefully, we are really very related." Next...... can be regarded as a disciple of Nian Taifu. ”

Because Shan Tingxian was present, Murong Xue did not reveal his true relationship with Nian Jinsong, and said that he and Nian Taifu had a master-apprentice relationship.

When Xiahou Ninghan heard him say this, his eyes flashed with a sparkling light, and he asked in disbelief, "You...... You can't be a member of the Xishu Murong family, right? Ling Zun is Murong Qianqiu's predecessor? ”

Murong Xue was slightly stunned and wondered, "How do you know?" ”

Xiahou Ninghan pursed his lips and smiled: "I said, when I heard your name, I felt a little familiar, but I couldn't remember it for a while." Murong Xue, your matter, naturally, Uncle Nian wrote to tell my father, and my father told me about it. ”

Murong Xue suddenly realized, and at the same time, she knew in her heart that his true origin, Nian Jinsong would probably not hide it from his best brother, so Xiahou's father and daughter should already know. Murong Xue smiled happily: "In this way, Taifu really mentioned it to the old sect master of Xiahou, and he is ashamed and ashamed." I didn't know that this was the manor of Xiahou's predecessors, which was really rude. ”

Because of the relationship between the three friends of Sui Han and the cold, Xiahou Ninghan and Murong Xue immediately lost a lot of strangeness and vigilance.

Xiahou Ninghan asked Murong Xue about her current situation and whether she was still serving in the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry of the Forbidden Army, and Murong Xue told her truthfully, saying that she had stepped down from her military post and been transferred to the East Palace Office shortly after the death of Nian Taifu.

As soon as his words fell, Xiahou Ninghan was surprised: "Ah? So, that Li Gongzi is ......"

Murong Xue and Shan Tingxian said at the same time: It's over, I originally planned to keep the secret of the prince's identity, but in front of this smart and clever Xiahou sect master, it is not enough to say at all. As soon as you talk about the beginning, she can guess the end, and she guesses very accurately, do you say that people are angry or not?

Murong Xue looked at Shan Tingxian helplessly, her eyes full of apologies. Shan Tingxian looked more free and easy, and bowed slightly towards Murong Xue, meaning that he would just say it, fortunately, the other party was not a bad guy of unknown origin.

Xiahou Ninghan looked at their expressions and instructed Siyun beside him, "You go and fetch the red sandalwood in my room and smoke some." ”

Siyun said softly and obeyed, then got up and left the pavilion.

Watching Siyun walk away, Xiahou asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?" Under the dignified East Palace, why was it robbed and killed by assassins? ”

Anyway, he had already told the other party the most important part, Murong Xue simply let go completely, from the time they left for Bianzhou to participate in the river sacrifice ceremony, to the time they were suddenly attacked by Zhongfu on the way, 1510 told Xiahou Ninghan.
