The third floor of the Piaoxiang Painting Academy.

On a wooden table, Xiao Han and the woman sat face to face, and Ye Hanxiang sat next to Xiao Han.

Peony and four other women stood behind the woman.

It can be seen that this old man's status in the Piaoxiang Painting Academy is not low.

There are eight dishes on the table, all of which are delicacies from the mountains and the sea.

"The old man is really magnificent, and the silver spent on this table of dishes is probably enough for my living expenses for several years." Xiao Han said with a smile, picking up the chopsticks casually, not caring whether there was poison in the dish at all.

"If the little brother thinks this dish is still to taste, he will eat more, please." As she spoke, the woman picked up her chopsticks and picked up the vegetables.

Xiao Han chewed hard a few times, and then "clicked" his mouth, "It's fragrant but not greasy, and the craftsmanship is good." ”

As he spoke, he tasted all the dishes on all eight plates.

Looking at Xiao Han's gluttonous appearance, the woman smiled slightly, "Little brother, aren't you afraid that this dish is poisonous?" ”

Ye Hanxiang heard this, and his face changed.

Xiao Han's face remained unchanged and looked at the woman, "Peony set the rules on the spot because the two of them insulted Miss Ye, and killed the two, which is really a righteous person." As an elder of Peony, how could he poison me? ”

"The little brother is thoughtful, bold and careful, and the old man admires him."

Xiao Han put down his chopsticks, "There is something unknown below, I want to ask the old man." ”

"Please."

The woman took a bite of the dish and put it in her mouth.

"It's strange that Peony didn't care about their identities before they killed them."

"What's so strange?"

"If those two are relatives of the emperor and the country, wouldn't killing them cause trouble?"

The woman smiled slightly, "The Northern Liang Kingdom has always advertised that the prince broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people. If they are damned people, why care about their identity? ”

Xiao Han didn't see any flaws in the woman's expression, so he could only nod and say, "That's right. ”

After speaking, he picked up the chopsticks and took another bite of the dish.

"Little brother seems to have a lot to ask the old body, right?" The woman asked with a smile.

"Yes! A lot, just like the old man has a lot to ask me. Xiao Han replied truthfully.

"Why don't you ask?"

"The old man left me for this meal, it is not for no reason, if he can tell me, I will say if I don't ask, and if I can't tell me, it's useless for me to ask."

"Little brother, you really impress the old body."

"If the old man has something to say, I am willing to listen to him, and in exchange for it, I will answer the same question as the old man."

"What if the old body tells you that you have no comment?"

Xiao Han gently put down the chopsticks and stood up, "I'm already full, thank you for the old man's hospitality, if I have a lot of money in the future, I will definitely go back to the old man once and say goodbye." ”

The woman didn't stay, but got up and said, "The old body sends the little brother." ”

"I'm tired."

Accompanied by the woman, Xiao Han and Ye Hanxiang walked out of the gate of the Piaoxiang Painting Academy, and said politely, "Old man, please stay, there will be a period later." ”

As he spoke, he walked away.

"Mother-in-law, could this person be related to the mysterious forces that have recently appeared in the capital?"

It wasn't until Xiao Han's figure disappeared around the corner that Peony asked softly.

The woman shook her head, "This person is completely different from their style of doing things, and should be unrelated, but he is even more terrifying." The woman looked at the direction in which Xiao Han disappeared and said in a heavy tone.

"Mother-in-law is also afraid?" Peony asked with a slight frown.

"Can you see what kind of swordsmanship that Miss Ye is using?"

"Peony doesn't know."

"Peony, the soft sword you use is made of the heavenly stone of Yulei Mountain, although it is soft, it is extremely tough, but that woman only used one style of swordsmanship, sealed all your attack paths, and broke your sword into three."

"Peony can indeed sense that her sword has a powerful sword aura."

"Although I don't know what kind of swordsmanship she is using, but in the whole world, there are only two possibilities that can do a little, first, she is a ninth-order martial artist. Second, she is a monk of the Immortal Gate. ”

When Peony and the others heard this, they were all shocked.

"Mother-in-law is saying that the two of them are likely to be from the Immortal Cultivation Sect?"

The woman sighed lightly, "These two are so young, even if they are talented, it is difficult for them to become ninth-order martial artists. I can conclude that they must be monks from the Immortal Cultivation Sect. ”

"Why didn't your mother-in-law ask him?" Peony asked.

The woman smiled slightly, "I wanted to listen from the side, but who knew that this young man was decisive and didn't give me a chance at all." ”

"It's a good thing these two don't look like evil people."

"It's just appearance, and any force that has appeared in Shangjing recently should not be underestimated."

"The monks of the Immortal Cultivation Sect have always only asked about mortal things, why did these two come to the capital?"

"They came to the capital, naturally there is a reason, if I guess correctly, it must be related to the imperial court."

"The one who invited them here must be the Sword Commander." Peony said.

"It is very likely that the emperor's illness is really strange, and Master Qi must have sent someone to the Immortal Cultivation Sect to ask the monk to go down the mountain on the grounds that evil things are causing trouble."

"I don't know if the appearance of these two people is good or bad for us."

"If the two of them are really Xianmen monks, the Northern Liang Kingdom will be saved, which is neither good nor bad for us. Peony, you immediately set off to report to the young master, the Sword Ruling Division is likely to have invited a monk from the Immortal Cultivation Sect. Furong, you inform the eyes of the capital and the counties to find out the true identities of these two, but you must be careful not to alarm them, let alone fight them. ”

"Yes." Peony and Hibiscus responded in unison and left quickly.

"Rose and Yueji, you two continue to secretly investigate the mysterious forces that have recently appeared in the capital."

"Yes." Roses, the moon season to receive orders.

The woman looked at the direction where Xiao Han disappeared again, and sighed lightly, "In the capital, all forces are staggered, it's really stormy!" ”

"Xiao Gongzi, you are really too careless, what if that woman poisons the food?" After turning the corner, Ye Hanxiang said.

"She's not going to poison her."

"Why are you so sure?"

"I've already said the reason at the table. Miss Ye, guess what's they thinking now? ”

"Who are we?"

"You blocked all of Peony's attack paths in one go, and broke her soft sword into three, that old woman must have guessed that we were monks from the Immortal Cultivation Sect."

"I'm just going to kill her majesty, it's too arrogant."

"They are arrogant, and they must rely on it, not only because of their strength, but also because of the forces behind them."

"I'm curious to know who they are now, and if it will have something to do with the affairs of the Imperial Court."

"Don't worry, we'll find out soon." Xiao Han looked at the flow of people on the street and said.
