The medicinal fragrance in the house has not completely dissipated, and you can see the furnishings of the inner room by bypassing a plain white screen.

It's still the same simple and low-key, but the furniture is not ordinary, and it has a bit of a role to ward off evil spirits.

Qin Youhuan was lying on the innermost peachwood beast bed, motionless, as if he was dead. Qi Yuan sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the gray face, this was the first time she had looked at it so seriously in a few days, and the soft eyebrows and eyes gradually merged with a childish face in the depths of her memory.

The bottom of her heart exploded like a volcano, and the hot magma flowed all over her body, but it made her feel cold in an instant.

The figure of the boy in her memory gradually became clearer, but she couldn't remember many things clearly, the only thing she remembered was that Xiao Youhuan was sitting on the grass in Chixia Town covered in blood, raising a pair of clear eyes and begging her to let him go.

And what the reason is, she can't remember it herself, and no one else can tell.

I only know that she probably did something wrong and caused him to be seriously ill for 12 years.

I can't explain the reason for the debt.

Qi Kite stretched out his hand to force out a wind-sheltering pill from his body like he did in the mass grave, which was a good medicine to dispel evil spirits, and it was refined with the bones and blood of Phoenix Immortals. However, she has consumed too much recently, and the golden light can't gather at her fingertips, so she finally withdrew her hand and sighed helplessly.

A cool breeze hit, and Li Cheng turned out to be in autumn. There was a faint familiar fragrance in the breeze, which made Qi Kite grit her teeth.

The wind behind him was fast, only to hear a deafening "bang", the plain white screen fell to the ground in response, and a green shadow rushed straight to the bed in the loud noise.

"Demon!" I heard the woman shout, and reached out to hold the dagger in the man's hand, and with a little force, it turned into a pile of silver powder.

The man was frightened and turned to escape, but Qi Yuan stepped forward and grabbed him by the back collar, threw him to the side of the bed like a chicken, and tore off a tent rope to tie him up.

This series of actions was completed almost in a breath, and it was not until the people in the courtyard rushed in that person reacted, but he was already struggling and powerless.

The one who came in was the big man who was going to pick up a knife to cut Qin Youwei before, and there were four people behind him, all of them with big shoulders and round waists, and there was a heroic righteousness tumbling in his chest, which looked like he had practiced.

The big man stepped over the broken screen and walked in scolding, seeing the wind in his palm, when he stopped, he just grabbed the man's face and dragged it down, and scolded: "Zhanyan raised you son of a bitch, are you tired once a year?"

The face towel pulled out a delicate face, which looked less than the weak crown, but a trace of demonic energy faintly wafting out of the fragrance that filled the house showed that his cultivation had been at least five hundred years.

But seeing that his eyes were dull, and he didn't dodge or dodge when the palm wind hit, Qi Yuan pushed away the big hand that grabbed his collar with one hand, and groped with the top of his head with the other hand, and after a while, he pulled out a filament.

The big man was also stunned, and exclaimed, "Puppet line?"

Zhan Yan seemed to be in extreme pain, began to struggle, and even attacked Qi Yuan, the big man stepped forward to hold him down, and only stopped when Qi Yuan pulled out five filaments from him, Zhan Yan was already sweating profusely in pain.

Although it hurt, his consciousness gradually cleared.

When he saw the people around him and the mess in the house, Zhanyan seemed to be about to cry, and shouted with a crying voice: "Sanxing, I made a mistake again?"

Sanxing is the big man, and he said while untying his rope: "When did you kid be tied to a puppet line? If this girl hadn't made a move, you would have caused a big disaster today." ”

After speaking, the six of them knelt on the ground together, and kowtowed heavily to Qi Yuan: "Thank you girl for saving Your Highness in danger many times, great kindness, Xianyi Mansion will be remembered for generations." ”

Qi Yuan remembered the broken memory of his childhood, and said in his heart that after you know who I am, don't shout and shout to kill, on the surface, he still had a polite conversation with these people, and said that he would not stay in the palace for a long time.

After all, the longer you stay, the more you will know about what you shouldn't know.

The people of the palace will not allow such a person to appear, even if they have saved His Highness's life.

A few more greetings, the big man led his subordinates away, and when he was about to go out, Zhan Yan turned back and said, "I see that you have different thoughts about Your Highness, I don't know if there is a request, whether the girl is willing to accept it." ”

Qi Yuan asked, "What's the matter?"

Zhan Yan said: "His Royal Highness's friend General Gu entrusted a person to His Highness before he set out on the expedition. ”

Qi Yuan knew about this, and on the wedding night, she must have entrusted the bride to Princess Banzhi.

Unexpectedly, Zhanyan shook his head and said: "The princess's daughter is noble, naturally someone protects her, and what General Gu entrusted is the personal maid of the original princess, Xiao Jiu'er, the trial maid of this wedding." ”

This little Jiu'er was carried into the general's mansion two days earlier, and it was originally a small trial marriage maid, but it was the process of carrying a sedan chair eight times. Everyone knows that today's princess is bent on ignoring Hongchen, this little Jiu'er is now, maybe it will be the identity of the main mother in the future, and it can be regarded as a princess who gave an explanation to the general's mansion, and it is also a royal dismount.

The emperor wanted to use this to block Gu Xianqing, but he didn't expect people to really fall in love with this little girl.

But there was a dark tide surging in Li Cheng, and Gu Xianqing was not worried about the little beauty, so he entrusted it to his friend Qin Youhuan before leaving, but he didn't want Qin Youhuan to almost lose himself for him.

In any case, the trust of friends cannot be disappointed, and the people in the palace discussed and felt that it was safer to take Xiao Jiu'er to the palace, "But the palace is full of five big and three rough men, and it is not good to say it when you go to rob other people's daughters-in-law." Zhan Yan said.

Qi Yuan was relieved and agreed to invite Xiao Jiu'er, but when he came to the General's Mansion, he turned the mansion upside down and didn't see any brides.

I caught a sneaky girl and found out that Xiao Jiu'er had run out of the house two days ago and went to Southern Xinjiang to find General Gu.

The people of the palace gritted their teeth.

Not to mention whether she can go to southern Xinjiang, even the goblins on the way, there are also her drinkers. ”

"It's a pity that our Highness, I'm afraid that we will be infamous for treachery. ”

"It's not so serious, Your Highness values righteousness, and it will definitely be uncomfortable after waking up, and I don't know how to get through this hurdle. ”

“......”

“......”

The subordinates say a word to me, Qi Yuan knows that this is for her, and she can leave it alone. But after all, she felt guilty, waved her hand and signaled everyone to shut up, and then said lightly: "I'll go find it." ”

Everyone really smiled immediately, only Zhanyan showed a sad face, and wanted to open his mouth but was stopped by the person next to him.

It wasn't until after Qi Yuan left that Zhanyan stood up: "Xiao Jiu'er is a woman, isn't that a girl......?"

"Shut up!" the old butler walked out, he flashed his waist before, holding on to his crutches and trembling, but his voice was full of anger, "What do you know? That girl has boundless magical powers, and God has sent her to help His Highness get through this hurdle...... Also, aren't you kneeling on the gravel path?

"I ......"

"Hey, okay, okay," Sanxing hurriedly stood up and grabbed Zhan Yan, who wanted to defend himself, and pulled him towards the stone road as he spoke, "You have been missing for half a month and don't know a lot of things, so you go and continue to kneel, and I will sit in front of you and talk to you slowly." ”

"Okay, don't eat melon seeds. ”

"Hahahaha, what are you talking about, brother, am I such an unrighteous person?"

"And what do you put in your sleeve?"

Sanxing took out two egg-sized walnuts: "Pecan, Liu Niang gave it to me, hehe, I'll just say that she is devoted to me." ”

Zhan Yan glanced at him and said, "She's asking you to make up for your brain." ”

At night, all the guards of the palace were transferred to the courtyard of Qin Youhuan, and the inner and outer three layers were impassable.

Twenty years ago, the demon clan was divided internally, and the human race violated the regulations of the Three Realms to participate in it, and formed a bond with one of them.

And it is rumored that some of the origins of this are related to Qin Youhuan.

So every July, people with lofty ideals who are eager for the peaceful reunification of the demon clan come to the palace to find out, and even if they can't find anything, they have to "easily" kill Qin Youhuan, hoping to solve the demon clan's troubles.

But they will all be arrested, at least they haven't escaped in the past ten years.

Most of the people who were arrested committed suicide, and some were killed by Qin Youhuan, and a very few of them were left to be small guards because they were likable, like Zhanyan.

Thinking back to the past few years in the palace, Zhan Yan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, he likes it here, he has food and drink, and he is not tired of work, Qin Youhuan is still spoiled, he has not been so relaxed and comfortable in the demon clan for more than four hundred years.

And just knew that he assassinated His Highness because he was tied to a puppet line, and in the end he was not to blame for all this, if it weren't for that girl, he would still think that he had gone crazy in practice.

The girl......

Speaking of which, I don't know her name yet.

Zhan Yan looked around, got up secretly, and disappeared into the night.

At the very least, ask her name.

At this time, Qi Kite was surrounded by a bunch of people in a bamboo forest, facing the biggest difficulties since birth.
