The sun rises in the east, and the morning glow begins to dew.

Heavenly Master's Mansion Dao Residence, the rolling thunder was stirring, Shen Ning was dressed in white and Shengxue, and was practicing the "Yang Thunder Nine Turns Breathing Method" left by the Taoist Ancestor, the movements were flowing smoothly, and the slightest electric light was circulating around him, which was very strange.

After a week of operation, the spirit yuan of the whole body returned to the cave heaven in the dantian.

Shen Ning slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, and a light smile appeared on his handsome face.

In the past few days, he first helped Gu Yanwu solve the accommodation problem, bought a small courtyard in the suburbs of the south of the city, and spent more than a hundred taels of silver.

The only thing that puzzled Shen Ning was that he could be sure that it was Zifu Lingyue who saved him that night, but he didn't know why she wanted to save herself, and why she would save herself, with her hatred of the demon clan, it should be the best choice to abandon herself at that time.

However, all this had an answer when Shen Ning took Gu Yanwu to meet Ying Qin.

"You're talking about Tsing Yi Si Zifu girl, right?" Ying Qin reclined on the couch, a red mole on his eyebrows, and his expression was lazy, "Xian Hui can't rest assured of you, let me send it to protect you." ”

Shen Ning was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't say anything.

"I heard that you brought back a remnant of Taiyi Shangqingmen?" Ying Qin talked about business.

Shen Ning nodded, "Still waiting outside the door." ”

"Taiyi Shangqingmen has guarded Nanxiang for me for decades, and when it was destroyed, the imperial court didn't even have time to lend a hand." Ying Qin sat up, "Speaking of which, the court is still ashamed of him, so let him follow me as a guard first, and if he is quite talented, he will be promoted more in the future." ”

Shen Ning gave up his hand and thanked Qin for Gu Yanwu.

Ying Qin waved his hand, "You, you have never been so polite to me, go out, there are still people waiting for you in my house, and I will meet this Gu Yanwu first." ”

Hearing that someone was still waiting for him, Shen Ning was relieved, and left Ying Qin's study without saying more.

Gu Yanwu was then called in.

"Shen Gongzi, come with me." A maid in the prince's mansion led Shen Ning to a pond in the backyard and retreated.

In March, lotus flowers bloom all over the pond, and under the bright sunshine, a young woman is feeding the koi fish in the pond under the warm sun, and the sparkling water reflects her beautiful face, which is incomprehensible.

The woman obviously didn't notice Shen Ning's approach, until, "Shen Ning, meet Her Royal Highness the Princess." At this time, she turned around suddenly, and when she saw that the person who came was Shen Ning, she couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes, and no longer seemed to call "A-Ning" in front of Ying Qin, but shouted briskly: "Brother Ning, are you back?" ”

"As soon as the Nanxiang demon is eliminated, the subordinates will return to the Heavenly Master's Mansion." Shen Ning replied.

Needless to say, the woman is naturally the eldest princess of the Great Jin Dynasty and wins Xianhui.

"Brother Ning, the peach blossoms in Peach Mountain are blooming, can you accompany me to take a look?" When Ying Xianhui saw Shen Ning, the smile on her face was like a crescent moon, which made people unable to refuse.

Shen Ning agreed.

There are three wonders in Shenjing City, in addition to listening to the tide pavilion where the tide is heard and the rain falls, the Jokhang Temple in front of the Buddha for a long time, the most beautiful is the peach mountain where the peach blossoms bloom in March and the sun is like fire.

There are not a few people who come to Taoshan, and the etiquette of Dajin is quite cumbersome, but it is not as harsh on women as in later generations, so Ying Xianhui can wear the clothes of an ordinary daughter to play in Taoshan, and it is unknown how many guards she secretly followed.

The warm breeze is blowing, the red, pink, and pale white petals are paved with muddy paths, and the merchants of Shenjing City who smell business opportunities are pushing large and small wooden carts full of all kinds of snacks and shouting here, and the scene is quite prosperous.

Peach Mountain was still a royal place of worship hundreds of years ago, and ordinary people were not allowed to approach, but when the queen said: "The mountains and forests under heaven should belong to the people of the world, and such a beautiful scenery cannot be wasted." As a result, the usual restrictions on the people were lifted, and in addition to the annual sacrifice day, the people could also come to Taoshan to go out.

Shen Ning and Ying Xianhui stayed away from the noisy noise at the foot of the mountain, and came to a peach blossom on the mountainside that covered the sky and the sun, enjoying the beautiful scenery in front of them.

"Brother Ning, do you remember the first time we met?" Ying Xianhui squatted on the ground, tilted his head, and quietly glanced at Shen Ning.

Shen Ning nodded, "That's the first time I've tasted pastries when I first came to Shenjing." ”

"At that time, I thought Brother Ning was so stupid and stupid, he was obviously very hungry, and he didn't dare to take anything to eat." Ying Xianhui smiled, "Later, the imperial brother went to the Heavenly Master's Mansion to practice Taoism, and I often went with him, so I became familiar with Brother Ning." ”

In addition to practicing the way of governing the country, the prince of the Great Jin Dynasty also has to practice magic, and Li Xuanji, who Ying Qin also worships, is his teacher, if he really talks about it, Shen Ning has to call Ying Qin a senior brother.

"I remember that at that time, Brother Ning was always the one who practiced the hardest, and it was like he had a great desire in his heart, and he was working hard for it." Ying Xianhui said to herself, "I really want to be able to practice with Brother Ning." ”

Shen Ning looked at the peach blossoms all over the mountains and fields, and said slowly: "Actually, since I was a child, you have been accompanying me to practice. ”

Ying Xianhui picked up a petal on the ground, showed memories on her face, and said softly: "When my mother was seriously ill, Brother Ning found me here." ”

Shen Ning nodded, it was not that Ying Xianhui was born unable to cultivate, but that the queen was seriously ill at the beginning, and she was too sad when she was still young, and she lost her essence, so she was unable to practice.

After the queen died of illness, Ying Xianhui often went to Taoshan to sit all day, because this was the favorite place of the eldest grandson queen during her lifetime.

Every time Ying Xianhui misses her mother and comes to Taoshan, Shen Ning will also come to accompany her, and the two of them can stay here for a long, long time without saying anything.

"Brother Ning, do you know? I often dream of my mother at night. Ying Xianhui buried her face with her hands around her knees, and said softly: "I dreamed that she taught me the etiquette of a woman, and I dreamed that she took me to visit Peachshan, and sometimes I would ...... I dreamed of you, Brother Ning. ”

Shen Ning was stunned, he was not a fool, Ying Xianhui had already said it so explicitly, it was impossible for him not to understand it.

But Shen Ning couldn't respond, he didn't know how many times he would encounter a situation like Nanxiang's nine deaths and a life in the future.

Compared with others, Shen Ning would prefer to win Xianhui to be happy and spend her life peacefully.

For a long time, Ying Xianhui didn't hear Shen Ning's voice, she chuckled in her heart, she had asked the imperial brother to test Shen Ning before, although the answer she got was unsatisfactory, but she always thought that it was the reason why she didn't say it herself, until this time, she suddenly realized that maybe her brother Ning was just like he said, he had always just regarded himself as a sister.

Thinking of this, a line of tears flowed on her delicate face, she was originally more shy, that sentence was said with a lot of courage, and now the more she thinks about it, the more she feels that Shen Ning just treats her as a sister, and her heart suddenly seems to be half empty, and tears can't stop flowing down.

"I think of you a lot, too." Seeing Ying Xianhui's appearance, Shen Ning's heart felt like it had been pricked by a needle, "But Xianhui, you know, my life is nine deaths, and I don't want to delay you." ”

When Ying Xianhui heard this, she raised her head, and her appearance of crying was pitiful.

"It's not a delay, Brother Ning, I like you, I liked you when I was very young."

In the face of naked love words, Shen Ning had no choice but to refuse, reached out to wipe away the tears on Ying Xianhui's face, and said softly: "Me too." ”

Her Royal Highness the Princess, who was still heartbroken, looked at Shen Ning aggrievedly after receiving a response, and asked seriously: "I will come to me in a few days, will Brother Ning come to me?" ”

"Yes."
