The dusk of the imperial capital fell silently, the sunset stretched for thousands of miles like fire, Xiao Qianye was awakened by a string of crisp bird calls, and his brain was still a little chaotic after waking up, faintly painful, he turned his face, and looked at a small sparrow on the white camellia on the windowsill with a strange expression.

He and the bird stared at each other for a few seconds, and the little sparrow tilted its head and jumped up and down on the white camellia, chattering in its mouth.

The quiet room suddenly became noisy, Xiao Qianye subconsciously touched the empty sword in his hand, instinctive vigilance made him jump up from the bed, lightning rushed to the window, the sparrow screamed and wanted to escape, flapped his wings and was pinched in his hand before he could fly.

The sparrow's beak was short and strong, struggling to peck hard at the back of his hand, Xiao Qianye frowned slightly, and with his other hand, he simply pressed the bird's head directly to prevent it from moving, and carefully stared at the bird's eyes to observe-he had been plotted by strange things many times, could this bird be secretly put in by someone to spy on him? Tianzheng Mansion has the protection of the magic left by the eldest brother, not to mention a sparrow, even a fly cannot fly in!

"Hey, hey, what are you doing!" Before he could directly pinch the sparrow in his hand, Yun Xiao pushed the door in, rushed in and snatched the bird with a burst of exclamation, carefully touched the wings that had been broken by him, and looked at him strangely, and reprimanded, "What's wrong with it, it's so heavy?"

"It's not normal. Xiao Qianye still frowned, and sternly pointed to the sparrow in her hand and reminded, "There will be no such small animal in Tianzheng Mansion to break in by mistake, you let it go, be careful of deception." ”

"It's normal, it's you. Yun Xiao looked at him with a funny look and explained, "This is Sister Feng Ji asked me to come over to deliver the message, seeing that you haven't woken up and waited on the windowsill, I've been waiting for you all afternoon, you are good, you broke people's wings when you got up, and insisted that it was not normal." ”

"Messenger?" Xiao Qianye was stunned for a moment, there was still an unconcealable doubt in his eyes, Yun Xiao glared at him, and muttered while checking the sparrow's injury, "Your big bird hasn't come back since it was ambushed by the shadows on the Weeping Snow Plateau before, right?" Before rushing back to the imperial capital last time, my sister promised to help you keep an eye on the whereabouts of the Tianzheng Bird, but it was not easy to find out, and you almost killed the sparrow that sent the message!"

Yun Xiao sighed, put her finger on the top of the sparrow's head, and sure enough, there was an imperceptible firelight there, no wonder this ordinary sparrow could pass through Xiao Yibai's spell and directly enter the backyard of the Tianzheng Mansion!

"Is there a whereabouts of the Heavenly Expeditionary Bird?" suddenly forgot his previous vigilance, Xiao Qianye's eyes flashed brightly, and he asked expectantly.

Yun Xiao nodded, carefully put the sparrow back on the windowsill, and continued: "That day, the Heavenly Expeditionary Bird had been flying south, and it didn't go far before it met another dark member who tried to ambush you, and they injured it with a special weapon, maybe they found that you were not with the big bird, and then they left it and left, it was found and rescued by the White Tiger Fifth Team patrolling later, and the injury was very serious, and it has been recuperating during this time, but it is recovering quickly, and it should not be long before it can come back to you by itself." ”

Xiao Qianye's eyes were bright, and the Heavenly Expeditionary Bird had followed him for eight years, not only was he fast, but he was also very agile in his actions, and he was almost never injured!

But he quickly reacted, his face raised and he couldn't hide his worry, before preparing to return to the imperial capital, they encountered another group of chasers from the dark department in the glacier forest, those people had strange traces of test medicine on their bodies, maybe they were the test bodies of the "second test medicine" recorded in the book of the Water Prison of the Binding King, and the Ordnance Department has also been secretly providing the most advanced weapons for the forbidden army, could it be that something has been newly developed recently, and even the Heavenly Expeditionary Bird can be seriously injured?

Yun Xiao didn't notice the abnormality on his face, leaned over and gently touched the sparrow's wings, and said apologetically: "Don't be angry with him, I will help you heal your injuries......"

The sparrow looked angry and chattered like a spirit, and Yun Xiao folded her hands in front of the bird and comforted her with a good voice.

Xiao Qianye looked at her with a blank face, even since he was young, he often saw Yun Xiao talking to all kinds of birds in Kunlun alone, talking and laughing, and would follow them to all kinds of strange places to play, and the slightly larger ones would even let her ride on her back and fly with her among the clouds, as if she could really integrate into the world of birds, but every time he saw such a picture, he still felt a little incredible, after all, he couldn't understand the bird language at all, and he could only see that the sparrow in front of him had been scolding and scolding, and it seemed that he was really scolding him。

"What is it talking about?" Perhaps out of curiosity, Xiao Qianye asked strangely, Yun Xiao covered her mouth and shook her head and refused to tell him.

Xiao Qianye's curiosity has already been provoked, even if the other party is just a bird, but with such sharp eyes and chattering voice, it is obvious that he is really scolding him, right? With his status in Feiyuan for so many years, even a high-ranking prince and general would not dare to scold him in front of him, and today he would actually be scolded by a sparrow?

"Okay, okay, it's useless for you to scold him, he doesn't understand the ......" Yun Xiao whispered, glanced at Xiao Qianye out of the corner of her eye, and snickered, "You can also come over and apologize to it." ”

Xiao Qianye's eyes suddenly condensed, there was a bright edge, he had never apologized to a sparrow when he was so big, but Yun Xiao opened his mouth and he was not easy to refuse, so he had to reluctantly walk over and continue to look at the noisy sparrow for a while, the sparrow tilted his head and suddenly quieted down, as if he was frightened by the other party's stern gaze, and immediately shut up.

"Hey, you're better! It's your fault. Yun Xiao hurriedly pulled the corners of his clothes, a little embarrassed, and before Xiao Qianye could speak, the sparrow staggered back a few steps in fright, stepped on the air, and his wings were injured and couldn't fly, and he fell straight down from the windowsill.

Xiao Qianye watched the stupid bird fall coldly, and felt a little funny in her heart, Yun Xiao hurriedly ran out and carefully picked it up, holding back her laughter.

"I'll find a place to settle you to recuperate first, and you can stay in Tianzheng Mansion temporarily, okay?" Yun Xiao muttered to herself, raised her eyes and glanced at the backyard, there were no flowers and trees planted in this empty yard, it was full of thick and cold green bricks, it didn't look like there was a place for this bird to live and recuperate, Xiao Qianye followed her out, glanced at the stupid bird in her hand, and pointed helplessly at the study next door," Put it there, I've moved everything in the study to the room, it's just empty, you can just find something you don't use and let it heal in it. ”

"Hmm. Yun Xiao nodded and trotted over.

Xiao Qianye rubbed his eyes, the smell of wine in his throat had dissipated, but there was still a faint nausea gushing out of his chest from time to time.

After a while, Yun Xiao quietly closed the door of the study, and saw him standing alone in the courtyard pressing his forehead, as if he was still a little uncomfortable, and asked: "Are you better?" You are already not strong enough to drink, and you drank so much liquor at one time, and you will be unconscious after coming back for a while, or I will move you to bed and sleep." "There is no mistake

Xiao Qianye glanced at her and found that Yun Xiao had changed into a plain white dress, and smiled at him, his memory was still stuck in seeing the terrifying injuries on her body, and he could only vaguely remember that she said that she was going to find a clean clothes to change into, and then her brain was blank, and there was a long-term fault, and when he opened his eyes, it was already approaching dusk, and he really wasted an afternoon sleeping at home just because he drank three glasses of wine!

He grinned indifferently and raised his eyebrows, no wonder people choose to numb their nerves with wine when they are depressed, he can't remember what happened in the past half a day!

"Are you hungry?" Yun Xiao approached him and asked strangely, "There is no kitchen at home, where do you usually eat when you come back?"

Xiao Qianye was stunned, since he came back eight years ago, because he and his eldest brother did not live in the imperial capital for a long time, and there was no one else in the family, every time it was time to eat, the two would invariably go to the street market outside to find a random place to mingle, although they would occasionally bump into each other, but they would hardly invite each other.

"You shouldn't buy food in the market outside every day, right?" Yun Xiao saw through his thoughts at a glance, and sighed, "I know that you must not take good care of yourself every day, relying on the fact that you are young and in good shape now, and you will feel good in the future, let's go, this morning Ah Xue invited me to go to her at night, Zhuo Fan and his wife also happened to be at home, you can also go with me." ”

"Don't go. Xiao Qianye refused, as if she had thought of something troublesome, and suddenly felt a headache, Yun Xiao dragged him and didn't let go, "No, Mrs. often visited Kunlun in the early years, and I also knew you, and they also brought you a letter from home." ”

"I ......" He still wanted to continue to quibble, but found that it was indeed his own fault, so he had to bow his head sullenly and say nothing.

"Madame complained to me this morning that you didn't go to see her once. Yun Xiao added angrily, seeing that he had a rare overwhelm on his face, he secretly laughed, "Don't let Master know, otherwise I will reprimand you for not knowing etiquette." ”

Xiao Qianye grinned embarrassedly, in this world, he could scold him in front of him and make him unable to fight back, except for the noisy sparrow, as well as his master, Jiang Qing, the head of Kunlun.

Mrs. Ming Qi is indeed a frequent visitor to Kunlun Mountain, and Yunxiao's mother Mrs. Qiushui is a good friend, when she was young, her parents often asked her to bring her some unique pastries from Feiyuan, as well as clothes sewn by her mother, but since he returned from Kunlun eight years ago, perhaps he secretly made up his mind not to mention his master to others again, he has indeed alienated the Ye family intentionally or unintentionally over the years, if it weren't for Ye Zhuofan who happened to be the general of the Blue Bird Legion, he would have almost no contact with the Ye family.

"Let's go. Yun Xiao smiled and pulled him out, and Xiao Qianye had no choice but to follow her.

The Ye family, as one of the three famous magnates in the imperial capital, even after the death of the right minister, has greatly reduced its power, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and now the Ye family relies on a shrewd and capable hostess, almost with the strength of one person to support this long-standing family, because the Ye family Miss has been married to Gongsun Yan a few years ago, Mrs. Ming Qi also took advantage of the trend to start a variety of businesses, although the Ye family is weak in the political arena, but the family has a big business, and there is a great tendency to become a rich party.

"Huh......" Yun Xiao suddenly paused, pulling his hand to tighten it a little, Xiao Qianye came back to his senses strangely, and before he could see clearly what the thing flashed in front of him was, countless sharp arrows shot out of nowhere, directly piercing the blue brick ground!

Likong Jian felt the strange aura around him, the sword qi evoked a sharp cold light, and after a few neat sounds, several strange people landed at the same time, dressed in dark and wide robes, jumped into the backyard of the Tianzheng Mansion, and then knelt down on one knee to make a gesture of greeting.

The two of them raised their vigilance at the same time, and in broad daylight, someone dared to break into the Tianzheng Mansion in such a swaggering manner!?

The next moment, Feng Siniang rushed in with a long sword in a rage, the silver long sword in his hand was shining, and the Wahuang sword pointed unceremoniously at the two of them, his face flushed with anger, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Take it out!"

Xiao Qianye keenly sensed that something was wrong, stretched out his hand to stop Yun Xiao behind him, strode up and said coldly: "What did Siniang say?"

"Don't play dead for me! You know what I'm talking about. Feng Siniang scolded, and the silver long sword struck out a sharp sword qi, cutting along the blue brick ground like a threat, she took a step closer again, and said in a low voice: "No wonder you followed me to the Trailing Pavilion, you were eyeing that thing early in the morning, right?" and deliberately asked a woman to seduce Ah Zheng to distract me, good nephew, I really didn't know that you still had such a scheming." ”

Her face was flushed with anger, and her whole body couldn't help trembling, after finding out that the token was stolen, she secretly searched for it in the Yule Pavilion for the first time, and then learned from Lan's mother that Marshal Si Tian came with Xiao Qianye this morning, and when she went around to find that friend of wine and meat, she found that the other party had long disappeared, and in desperation, she could only take the risk of killing directly to Tianzheng Mansion, but seeing the other party's aggressive behavior, Xiao Qianye was not annoyed or angry, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she naturally knew what she was referring to: "How can the sandalwood order of the forbidden army be in the hands of my aunt, I have never heard that my aunt has joined the forbidden army. ”

"You ......" Feng Siniang was anxious, her mind was even more confused, and her irritable temper suddenly came to her head: "The military pavilion also has its own unique military token, you should know what the consequences will be if that thing is lost." ”

"That's why I'm asking you, why is the Sandalwood Order of the Forbidden Army in your hands?" Xiao Qianye sneered and asked, and the spiritual power of the sword in his hand skyrocketed.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't. Feng Siniang snorted, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, a terrible expression appeared on her face, that year his mother was willful, and the harmful Feng family whispered to make peace with Governor Gao, and now this nephew, who has never been in contact, has secretly stolen the most important token, which is obviously to force her into the fire pit again!

Xiao Qianye looked at her aunt coldly, held the sword spirit hard, and whispered: "Is my aunt really doing something for the dark department?"

"So what?" Feng Siniang gritted her teeth, but there was only a void in her eyes, and muttered, "Since I came, I don't want to go around the bend with you anymore, I have come to this day thanks to your mother, she is happy, her husband loves her son, have you ever thought about how your mother's family has been threatened? Now you have to help outsiders deal with me, hahaha...... It's okay, if you want to continue to stop me, don't blame my aunt for being ruthless. ”

As soon as the words fell, the surrounding circle of people raised their heads in unison, Xiao Qianye restrained the smile on his face, and secretly took a cold breath - faceling!

The nose was cut off, the eyes and mouth were stitched together, what had happened, the faces of this group of people seemed to have been ground into a smooth and terrifying skin by something!
