21. The chess pieces are on the board, and the show begins

Xiao Yi and Pei Shun were playing against each other in front of the window.

The silk sandalwood is entangled, the white clothes and green shirts sit opposite each other, and there are a few short conversations between the executions.

*

"The chess skills of the second prince have not diminished back then."

"The Fourth Highness is as ...... as always"

"How?"

"Superb."

"Yo, you kid has learned to compliment people!"

"You teach well."

"Come less! I want to be in the ...... back then."

This is where the conversation comes to an abrupt end.

In the next moment, Yun Zhi pushed the door and broke in.

The expressions of the two in front of the window were a little unnatural, but Yun Zhi was in the mood to pay attention, and shouted Xiao Yi when he entered the door.

Xiao Yi was still holding a chess piece in her hand, and when she saw her anxious face, she frowned: "What's wrong?" Running in such a hurry? ”

Yun Zhi jumped in front of him in a few steps and asked anxiously, "Can you help me send a letter back to Luozhou?" I want to ask King Ning about his current situation! ”

With a click, the pieces landed on the board.

Pei Shun suddenly coughed lightly, Xiao Yi glanced at him, withdrew his hand, and looked at Yun Zhi in surprise, "Why do you suddenly care about King Ning?" After a pause, he smiled teasingly, "Conscience found out that you care about your husband?" ”

"Not really!" Yun Zhi shouted and said urgently: "I just met Lu ...... When I met my eldest sister, she said that King Ning didn't protect him by the prince's side at all, and I was afraid that he had already returned to Luozhou, and he would ...... when the time came."

She sighed, her voice unconsciously muffled, "If he finds out that I am not recuperating in another hospital, something will definitely happen!" At that time, it will inevitably affect the Anguo Mansion, and King Ning's methods are vicious and particularly vengeful, maybe even you will be affected by the time. ”

Pei Shun looked at Xiao Yi, "It should be ...... No way? ”

Xiao Yi tugged at the corners of his lower lip, shook his head and sighed, "But he does hold a grudge." After a slight pause, he picked up the chess pieces that fell on the chessboard back between his fingers, and said: "But don't worry too much, I still have some friendship with him, and it is enough to say a favor for everyone." ”

Seeing that he was so confident, Yun Zhi suddenly had a bold idea: "Xiao Yi, since you have such a big face, can you help me get a copy of the peace book?" That way, you don't have to worry about being found out! ”

Before he could finish speaking, the pieces that had just been picked up fell back onto the board.

Pei Shun suddenly laughed.

Yun Zhi looked at him strangely, "What's wrong?" ”

Pei Shun's eyes drifted out of the window, and he didn't squeak.

Xiao Yi was silent for a while, and finally sighed, "I'll try, but he may not be able to listen to me." ”

"I'm sure you can!" Yun Zhi patted him on the shoulder, his eyes full of encouragement: "Come on!" ”

Looking at the anticipation in her eyes, Xiao Yi sighed again and got up to write a letter.

Yun Zhi was satisfied, and used all the praise words he could think of in his life to praise people, but for some reason, Xiao Yi didn't seem to be very happy.

In the evening, Xiao Yi was about to go out.

Qu Shaochen, the master of Qinglong Hall of Qingyi Villa, hurriedly entered the courtyard with a letterbox, hurriedly walked to the side of the young master, took out a piece of paper from the letterbox and handed it over.

Qu Shaochen said in a low voice: "It's been passed from Yazhou, and the matter has come to an end." ”

Xiao Yi took the paper, opened it and looked at it for a while, then carefully folded the paper, and without saying a word, turned around and went back to the room.

Qu Shaochen couldn't help but be stunned.

The young master has been investigating this matter for almost ten years, and now that there are results, he didn't say a word? That's not quite his style!

The master of the hall was feeling strange, and the young master of his family came out of the room again.

He also carried a long sword in his hand.

"......" sure enough.

Qu Shaochen suddenly felt the awe-inspiring autumn wind, and couldn't help but shiver.

At this time, Pei Shun entered the courtyard.

Seeing Xiao Yi holding a sword in his hand, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked, "Brother Xiao, what do you want to ......?" ”

"Oh, go kill someone."

Xiao Yi's eyes were calm, and his tone was plain, as casual as if he was saying that he was going for a walk.

Pei Shun didn't even feel surprised, so he snorted and said, "Pay attention to safety." ”

Xiao Yi nodded, and walked away.

After taking two steps, he stepped back, "Help me take care of Yunzhi." ”

Pei Shun's tone was light: "I don't need you to remind me." ”

Xiao Yi stared at his eyes and said with a smile: "Then please don't think about anything that shouldn't be moved, after all, I still like to be friends with you." ”

Pei Shun's eyes darkened slightly, but he didn't speak again.

Xiao Yi didn't pay attention to him anymore, turned around and strode out of the door.

——

After coming out of Xiao Yi, Yun Zhi was pestered by Lu Yunsheng for an afternoon.

This sister also cared about her sister very much, and carefully asked her how she got out of the palace and how she came all the way to Ming'an.

Yun Zhi made up one lie after another, and finally perfunctory the person.

Just as he was about to slip away, there was a knock on the door of the room.

The person who came was radiant and heroic, his face was like a crown of jade, and his eyebrows and eyes were extremely warm, he was a simple plain white shirt, but he had the temperament of an immortal.

What a pure white jasmine flower-Yun Zhi suddenly had this thought in his head.

Looking at each other, the man's eyes widened for a moment.

"Yunzhi?!" He blinked his eyes and looked at Lu Yunsheng, his expression full of horror: "Why is she here?" ”

Obviously, he knew Lu Yunzhi.

In this villa, there is only one person who can have a little friendship with the Lu family sisters at the same time.

Yun Zhi was busy with surprise, and deliberately lowered his voice: "His Royal Highness the Prince?!" Why are you there? ”

This person is the prince of Dayuan, Huan Chengxi.

He looked at Yun Zhi and then at Lu Yunsheng, and an incredible expression gradually appeared on his face, "You won't also run away from marriage, right?" ”

Yun Zhi only smiled and didn't answer, Lu Yunsheng silently stepped forward, protected his sister, and frowned at him, "What do you want to say?" ”

Huan Chengxi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly waved his hand, "No, Shengsheng, don't get me wrong, I don't mean to question." I'm just worried that Cheng Yao will be sad, he is already ......"

"What's that?" Lu Yunsheng completely lost a trace of the reserve of a noble girl of the family, the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, and he stared at the crown prince Huan Chengxi imposingly, "What is it?" You feel sorry for your brother, I still feel sorry for my sister, I know that such a good girl, why do you have to live a lifetime with a person who can't even hear or speak? ”

Huan Chengxi's eyes were immediately stained with obscurity, "Shengsheng, don't say that about Chengyao, he is not what you think." ”

Yun Zhi was shocked.

What's the situation? Didn't it say that Ning Wang Huan Chengyao poisoned his brother, and the crown prince Huan Chengxi is now weak and sick, all thanks to him? How can this Huan Chengxi still speak for a person who harms himself!

It can't be another rumor, right? In fact, people don't know how many brothers and sisters there are!

Lu Yunsheng snorted disdainfully, and hated that iron could not become steel: "What has he done to you, and you still help him speak!" ”

"Cheng Yao was just young and ignorant at that time, and he didn't mean it." Huan Chengxi said, smiled gently, stepped forward and gently pulled down the corner of Lu Yunsheng's clothes, "Okay, don't be angry, I won't tell others that Yun Zhi is here, okay?" ”

Lu Yunsheng snorted, and his face eased a lot.

Yun Zhi looked at the two of them pulling and pulling, and only felt that there seemed to be something strange, but she couldn't say it for a while.

She watched silently for a while, and then wanted to sneak away, but was caught back by Lu Yunsheng and insisted that she stay to eat.

In desperation, Yun Zhi had a bitter face and was forced to have dinner with the two.

The next day was September 26, and the sword appreciation meeting officially began.

The so-called sword appreciation conference, in fact, is a martial arts competition, every three years, the love of the mountain villa will spend a huge amount of money to create a peerless Qingfeng sword, as long as you win the first place in the sword appreciation conference can get this sword.

This meeting is held every three years, and the ranking of Zhongzhou Jianghu is also updated every three years.

All sects hope that this first place will come out of their own homes, and the younger generations can also see the true faces of many world-famous predecessors here, so people in the rivers and lakes martial arts will rush to this.

At the same time, because of the special geographical location of Ming'an, the sword appreciation conference is also a common event of the three countries, although the three countries are evil, but every time this meeting, the monarchs of the three countries will still send envoys to participate in the meeting.

Standing at the scene of the sword appreciation conference, Yun Zhi's eyes immediately lit up after learning about this from Ah Yu's mouth.

In this way, wouldn't she be able to meet the envoy sent by the Empress of Yanguo immediately? Then there should be a chance to go back to Yanguo with them to see the empress......

But Ah Yu's face was a little strange, Yun Zhi had guessed her background, and he didn't dare to show too much excitement when he saw this, but his eyes began to search everywhere for the location of the female envoy of Yanguo.

The female envoy hadn't found it yet, but her eyes were on Lu Yunsheng and Huan Chengxi.

When the two of them saw her, they immediately walked over the layers of crowds to her side.

When Ah Yu saw it, she was curious about who they were, and Lu Yunsheng was also asking Yun Zhi who the girl next to her was.

There was no way, Yunzhi had to introduce it to everyone.

Prince Huan Chengxi glanced at Ah Yu several times, and suddenly asked, "Have we met where before?" ”

Ah Yu was stunned, smiled coquettishly, glanced at Lu Yunsheng, whose face had changed slightly, and said with a smile: "This way of talking is not new. ”

Huan Chengxi realized that the emotions of the people around him were wrong, and quickly explained: "No, I really feel like I've seen ...... somewhere."

The darker it gets.

Lu Yunsheng glared at him fiercely, turned his head to look at the platform in front of him, and stopped paying attention to him.

Huan Chengxi was anxious, but he didn't know how to explain it again, so he just repeated, "You misunderstood." ”

Ah Yu and Yun Zhi glanced at each other, and they both saw the schadenfreude in their respective eyes, and they smiled in unison.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion behind him, and someone squeezed through the crowd and hurriedly ran to the seat of the envoy of the Three Kingdoms, and whispered a few words to the envoy of the Yuan Kingdom.

"What?!"

I don't know what he said, but the messenger suddenly got up and looked horrified, and this low roar also attracted everyone's attention.

At this time, Qu Shaochen, the owner of Qinglong Hall of Qingyi Villa, also hurriedly ran in, he quickly ran to the side of Xiao Rufeng, the owner of the village, and after a whisper, Xiao Rufeng grabbed Qu Shaochen's wrist, and looked at him as if he was confirming something, Qu Shaochen nodded affirmatively, and Xiao Rufeng immediately frowned.

Immediately, the spies of the major forces of the various sects came to report back to their masters.

Yun Zhi and they were just standing in place, and they quickly heard clearly-

Something happened! Something is wrong! The King of Jin of the Great Yuan Kingdom was killed in his fiefdom!

And it was none other than his half-brother who killed him-

Ning Wang Huan Chengyao.
