Worried, it tastes like chewing wax.

At a family banquet, Liu Xunyi and Ling Xiaoxiao were both worried and worried. Only Luo Ningyu, who didn't know the truth, ate with relish, talked and laughed all the time, trying his best to get closer to Ling Xiaoxiao and Liu Xunyi.

Until Liu Xunyi was "full of wine and food" and left the back hall, Ling Xiaoxiao's voice still echoed repeatedly in his mind.

......

"Looking for clothes, how can you allow others to snore next to the couch? If Xiao Zhirou doesn't die, you and I will have no peace......"

"I have an ominous premonition that once Xiao Zhirou comes to Luoyang City, it is very likely that she will tear her face with us on the spot and force Brother Jin to choose between me and her. According to the current situation, it is very likely that Brother Jin will be confused for a while and let her take my place......"

"If Xiao Zhirou is anti-guest-oriented, the ten disciples of the Xianwang Mansion will be excluded......"

"Pull a hair and move the whole body! Looking for clothes, you must focus on the overall situation......"

......

Ling Xiaoxiao's words, words and deeds have been haunting Liu Xunyi's mind, making him upset and entangled.

Regarding Ling Xiaoxiao's bewitchment, Liu Xunyi neither agreed nor refused, always holding an ambiguous attitude.

It's not that he doesn't have a strong position, but he thinks that he is about to leave the Xianwang Mansion, so he doesn't want to wade into this troubled water again, and at the same time, he doesn't want to make enemies at this juncture.

Once Liu Xunyi returned to Tianji Pavilion, the grievances and grievances in the rivers and lakes had nothing to do with him. As for the rights and wrongs between Luo Tianjin, Xiao Zhirou, and Ling Xiaoxiao, it has nothing to do with him.

Right now, more is better than less. Liu Xunyi devoted himself to preparing for the recruitment plan, and as for other trivial matters, he didn't care about it at all.

"Liu Zhi fan. ”

Just as Liu Xunyi was looking for a horse, a pleasant voice suddenly sounded from behind him, which shocked his spirit, and quickly restrained the sorrow on his face, and at the same time replaced it with a leisurely appearance of doing nothing.

"What's ......?"

When he turned around, Liu Xunyi saw clearly that the person who came was Xun Qin, who he hadn't seen for many days, and couldn't help frowning, and his voice stopped abruptly.

"Is that you?" Liu Xunyi's tone was obviously tinged with caution.

"Why can't it be me?" said Xun Qinliu, raising his eyebrows lightly, and said with a smile, "Why are you so nervous?

Liu Xunyi was quite jealous of Xun Qin, worried that she would make a mistake and be caught by her again, so she didn't want to entangle with her, so she asked straight to the point, "Miss Xun Qin has always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, what is the matter with me today?"

"Shen Dongshan is here, and he is in the middle hall at the moment. ”

"Shen Dongshan?" Liu Xunyi was stunned for a moment and hesitated, "What is he doing here?"

"I want to know too. Xun Qin asked rhetorically, "The lord of Luofu is the leader of the martial arts alliance, and Shen Dongshan is just a businessman, guess what is between them...... What's the matter? By the way, there is another person who came with Shen Dongshan today, his demeanor is proud, his aura is magnificent, and he is not a mediocre person. ”

Xun Qin's words made Liu Xunyi's heart move, and an extremely bold idea quickly flashed.

Qin Wei told himself that the Zhaofu Qincha sent by the imperial court was about to arrive in Luoyang City, and Shen Dongshan came uninvited at this time, could it have something to do with Zhao'an?

Thinking of this, Liu Xunyi couldn't help but want to move, but he didn't dare to show anything strange in front of Xun Qin, so he pretended to be flat and said, "Master Shen and the mansion master are old friends, and every year I will take the time to go to Luoyang City to catch up with the mansion master, but it is just an ordinary exchange of courtesies." ”

"Really?" said Xun Qinhu suspiciously, "the ...... who walked with him?"

"Master Shen is a great Song Dynasty giant, and he naturally has many friends in the business field, and all of them are famous families and high-ranking officials, so it is not surprising. Liu Xunyi said perfunctorily, "What's more, the lord of the mansion is the leader of the martial arts alliance and holds the power of the rivers and lakes, so naturally there are many people who want to get acquainted." It is also reasonable for these people to be matched by Master Shen. ”

"Matchmaking, that's a good point!" Xun Qin said with a weird smile, "I remember that on the second day of August last year, Shen Dongshan also matched the Great Song Dynasty in an attempt to persuade the martial arts heroes to return to the Great Unification. ”

"Shhh

With just one word, Liu Xunyi's heart sank, and an inexplicable nervousness quietly rose from the bottom of his heart.

"Liu Zhifan, you said that Shen Dongshan came here today, will it have something to do with the Great Song Dynasty?" Xun Qin's beautiful eyes stared at Liu Xunyi directly, as if to penetrate his heart, "After all, the relationship between Song and Mongolia is becoming more and more tense, and the rumors outside are boiling and seeming...... The war is not far off. ”

Liu Xunyi looked back at Xun Qin expressionlessly, and said indifferently, "What do you mean by this?"

"As soon as the battle began, with the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty, it was impossible to resist the Mongolian iron cavalry driving straight in. Xun Qin reminded, "And Liu Zhi Fan is ...... Loyal and righteous people should not watch the mountains and rivers shatter. ”

"So what?" Liu Xunyi said undeniably, "But I won't sit idly by, and people with lofty ideals in the world will not stand idly by." ”

"The Great Song Dynasty will also not sit still, and will do everything possible to expand its military strength. Xun Qin looked scheming and confident, and said unhurriedly, "Guess, Shen Dongshan came this time, did he act as a lobbyist for the Great Song Dynasty again?"

"This ......"

At this moment, Liu Xunyi had completely guessed Xun Qin's sinister intentions, and she was clearly taking advantage of Shen Dongshan's visit to take the opportunity to spy on the movements of the Great Song Dynasty.

At the moment, Liu Xunyi must think carefully about every word he says, so as not to be accidentally caught by Xun Qin.

"I don't understand what you mean. Liu Xunyi pretended to be confused, waiting for an opportunity to probe, "Yes or no, what does all this have to do with you......?" You don't want the lord of the mansion to help the Great Song Dynasty?"

"What do you say?"

"If the Great Song Dynasty falls, all Han people in the world will be affected, and the Xianwang Mansion is no exception. If the leader of the martial arts alliance suffers from the pond fish, it seems to be ...... It's not good for you?"

"Liu Zhifan, you and I are both smart people, why be alarmist?" Xun Qin said with a contemptuous smile, "If the Mongolian Imperial Court really wants to deal with the Xianwang Mansion, the ten martial arts alliance masters are not opponents. Luoyang City has been falling for many years, and Luo Tianjin has not been affected, but has taken advantage of the chaos to rise. It can be seen from this that he is a hero in troubled times, and only when the world is in turmoil can his ability be highlighted. If the world is peaceful, it will be difficult to have the opportunity to make contributions. In my opinion, the lord of Luofu was born for troubled times and is destined not to be swayed by anyone. ”

There were words in Xunqin's words, which made Liu Xunyi uneasy and nervous.

"In this way, you want to use the mansion master, but you are also a fool's dream?" Liu Xunyi was not to be outdone, and sneered at each other.

"Wrong!" Xun Qin shook his head, "I'm not like you, only you are the one who is completely exploited." And I've never wanted to take advantage of anyone, everything I do is just take what you need. ”

"Oh?" Liu Xunyi raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, "I don't know what you want from King Beixian, and what can King Beixian get from you?"

"Does Liu Zhifan treat me as a three-year-old child?" Xun Qinwaner smiled and said playfully, "I'm just kindly reminding you, beware of stealing chickens, and eating rice." ”

"You ......"

"Xunyi, so you're here. ”

Suddenly, Xie Xuan's voice sounded from the corridor, interrupting the conversation between Liu Xunyi and Xun Qin.

"Miss Xun Qin is also there?" Xie Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then turned his anxious gaze to Liu Xunyi, who was distracted, and urged, "Xunyi, the lord of the mansion asked you to go to the middle hall to discuss matters now." ”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Xunyi and Xun Qin's eyes changed at the same time. The difference is that Liu Xunyi's eyes are complex and excited, while Xun Qin's eyes are very intriguing and seem to be a little ...... There are vague worries.

"Yes. ”

Liu Xunyi happily agreed, and then glanced at the inexplicable Xun Qin with a look on his face, and then walked towards the middle hall with Xie Xuan.

"Liu Zhi Fan!"

Before Liu Xunyi walked away, Xun Qin suddenly said, "I have already come up with the following poems that you and I discussed just now. It is 'why should the Qiang flute complain about the willows, and the spring breeze is not over' the goose' door is closed'. ”

"Although Miss Xun Qin is a Liao person, she has a lot of research on the culture of the Central Plains. Without waiting for Liu Xunyi to answer, Xie Xuan suddenly interjected, "Although there are occasional flaws, they are also flawed. ”

"Oh, dare to ask Second Master Xie for advice. ”

"It's not that the 'spring breeze does not pass' the goose 'gate', but 'the spring breeze does not pass the jade gate'. Xie Xuan kindly corrected.

Xun Qin pretended to suddenly realize, deliberately aggravated his tone, and repeated, "It turned out to be Yumen Pass, not Yanmen Pass." With the teachings of the second master of Lao Xie, I am afraid that I will not be wrong in my life this time. ”

Xun Qin insinuated and repeatedly mentioned the word "Yanmen Pass", as if threatening Liu Xunyi.

The first time the two met was at Yanmen Pass, and Liu Xunyi at that time was not "Liu Zhifan", but "Lord Liu".

Hearing this, Liu Xunyi's expression stiffened, and his heart was mixed, and the taste of being held by someone was really uncomfortable. At this moment, he really hated to kill Xun Qin.

"The lord of the mansion has summoned you, you can't delay, let's go!"

Under Xie Xuan's urging, Liu Xunyi had no time to entangle with Xun Qin, and under her provocative gaze, she worriedly followed Xie Xuan away.

In the middle hall, Luo Tianjin and Shen Dongshan were chatting happily.

At this moment, in addition to Shen Dongshan's personal guard Kui Qi, there were two other people sitting on the side.

A kind eyebrow and kind eye, more than half a hundred years old. A resolute and cold one, in the prime of life.

When Liu Xunyi and Xie Xuan walked into the middle hall one after the other, Luo Tianjin couldn't help but smile, and then introduced Shen Dongshan and the three of them very enthusiastically, "This is Xie Xuan, who alone supports half of the world in the Xianwang Mansion, is my right-hand man, and is also my friend of life and death, and he is also an old friend with Master Shen." The young man behind him is not simple, his name is Liu Xunyi, he is about to become Luo's son-in-law, and he is also Luo's favorite junior descendant, with both civil and military skills, wisdom and bravery. ”

As for this, Luo Tianjin's expression was full, and he said half-seriously and half-jokingly, "Maybe, Luo's family business will be handed over to him in the future." ”

"Brother Liu is extraordinary, his courage is outstanding, he is really terrifying!" Shen Dongshan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly got up to compliment.

"Looking for clothes, I've seen Master Shen and the two adults quickly. ”

Out of courtesy, Liu Xunyi kept his head down after stepping into the middle hall, not daring to look around.

At this moment, hearing Luo Tianjin's greeting, he hurriedly stepped forward, bowed to Shen Dongshan first, and then cautiously cast his humble gaze on the other two.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, this look made Liu Xunyi's heart shocked, and he almost exclaimed.

In front of him, the young man who did not smile was the young man of Tianji Pavilion, Qiu Han.

As for the other middle-aged man with kind eyes and a lovely smile, he is the mentor who raised Liu Xunyi single-handedly, and he is also his superior, "Tianji Marquis" Zhao Yuan.
