Chapter 753: Door-to-door visits
Yin Chuyu was telling everyone some news circulating in the palace, and the servants came to report it, saying that Nie Jinglong, the leader of the Eagle Guard, was visiting.
Everyone felt strange, there was not much contact between Xia Yi and Nie Jinglong, what was the matter with this guy coming to Xia Yi?
Xia Yi himself was also very strange, but if it was strange, wouldn't it be clear if he called Nie Jinglong in and listened to his intentions? So Xia Yi sent someone to invite Nie Jinglong in.
Nie Jinglong stood outside the gate of the Xia Mansion, and when he saw that Xia Yi did not come to greet him in person, but only sent a servant to guide him, he immediately felt very unhappy in his heart.
No matter how famous Xia Yi is, no matter how famous the "Xia Junzi" is, at least nominally he is a court official and the leader of the Eagle Guard, and he doesn't even come out to greet him in person, which is simply too unpopular!
Nie Jinglong's mood was very unhappy, he was beaten by His Majesty in the palace, he was beaten by Qin Song, the right minister when he left the palace, and came to Longxiang Courtyard, and he had to look at Xia Yi's face, all kinds of unhappiness made his mentality at this time on the verge of exploding, if it weren't for Xia Yi's scruples and use value, just if he didn't go out to meet this in person, Nie Jinglong would have to fight Xia Yi to the end.
Walking in the Xia Mansion with a little flame of hatred in his heart, Nie Jinglong followed behind the servant, wondering in his heart whether to find some excuse to be angry with Xia Yi, otherwise he would be too embarrassed and panicked.
From the front yard to the back yard, this idea was settled without too many worries, but when he saw Xia Yi for the first time, he dismissed the idea of finding fault.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, I didn't expect you to be here. "Nie Jinglong suppressed all the unhappiness, no matter how powerful he was, he didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Princess Shanyang, this is His Majesty's favorite daughter, there is no one.
Also, Princess Shanyang is here, Xia Yi naturally doesn't have to greet him in person, taking care of the princess is the most important thing.
Yin Chuyu saw Nie Jinglong's courteous expression, nodded reservedly, and maintained the demeanor of a princess.
"I heard that you have been listening to the training in the New Year Palace before, you came to find Xia Yi when you left the palace, what, did your father ask you to convey any will?" Yin Chuyu asked with a hint of anxiety in her reserve.
The biggest knot in Yin Chuyu's heart is the conflict between her father and Xia Yi, although she also knows in her heart that the contradiction between the two of them is difficult to reconcile, but she is still struggling to find a solution. During this period, she was most worried about the growing conflict between the two.
Nie Jinglong had been in the Prayer Palace before, and after leaving the palace, he came directly to Longxiang Courtyard to find Xia Yi, which made Yin Chuyu's heart beat wildly, for fear that Nie Jinglong would bring some bad intentions.
Nie Jinglong was also clear about the matter between Xia Yi, Yin Chuyu and His Majesty, and noticed the anxiety in Yin Chuyu's tone, he secretly speculated in his heart that the relationship between Xia Yi and Princess Shanyang was really good, and at the same time, he was also glad in his heart, fortunately he endured it at the door and did not directly knock over the servants who came to greet him, otherwise, wouldn't he have offended Princess Shanyang again in vain?
Hearing Princess Shanyang's question, Nie Jinglong hurriedly replied: "It is not Your Majesty's will to return to Her Royal Highness the Princess, the minister came to Mr. Xia to ask for something." "Let's do it
Nie Jinglong felt this bitterness in his heart, he was angry everywhere, he couldn't vent it anywhere, and he could only swallow his own bitterness and tears in his heart.
When Yin Chuyu heard that it was not her father's will, she let go of most of her heart, but when she heard that Nie Jinglong came to Xia Yi for help, her mind flashed, and she immediately thought of one thing.
"Are you looking for Xia Yi for the affairs of the Mysterious Land?" Yin Chuyu knew that Nie Jinglong was now in charge of investigating the affairs of the Mysterious Land, and he came to Xia Yi for help, so this was the only thing that could connect the two people.
"Exactly. Nie Jinglong replied respectfully.
Yin Chuyu wanted to help Xia Yi refuse this matter, she knew what Xia Yi had experienced in the mysterious place, but there were many secrets that could not be told, in order to avoid these secrets being leaked, it was best for Xia Yi not to provoke this matter. However, she didn't know what Xia Yi really thought in her heart, so she gave Xia Yi the decision and let him make the decision. If Xia Yi was unwilling to go to the mysterious place, it would not be too late for him to refuse Nie Jinglong.
Xia Yi listened to the conversation between the two of them one by one, and he was already impatient, seeing the eyes handed by Yin Chuyu, Xia Yi understood, and then chatted with Nie Jinglong.
As soon as he came up, he asked a question that made Nie Jinglong sweat wildly: "You did the two conscriptions against the Xia family before, right?"
How could Nie Jinglong not sweat, he came to Xia Yi this time with the intention of saluting first and then soldiering. First invite Xia Yi to help explore the mysterious place, and if Xia Yi does not agree, then use the Xia family to threaten Xia Yi. It is said that the last time the Xia family came to Longxiang Courtyard to look for Xia Yi's brothers and sisters and was driven back, Nie Jinglong didn't believe that Xia Yi would really give up the Xia family, so he planned to threaten Xia Yi in person.
It's just that he didn't expect that he would meet Princess Shanyang as a guest here in Xia Mansion, and it was too coincidental for Nima to rush to the ground! Princess Shanyang was sitting here, how dare he threaten Xia Yi? Wouldn't that have to offend the princess completely? In his experience, offending the princess's little lover was to some extent more terrifying than offending the princess herself.
Nie Jinglong scolded his mother in his heart, and with a smile on his face, he moved out of the reasons he had thought of earlier, and responded to Xia Yi's question: "This is indeed my final decision, and I hope that Mr. Xia can understand it, the casualties in the mysterious place are too high, and our Eagle Guard does not have so many martial artists, so we can only recruit martial artists from major families, as for the two conscriptions of the Xia family, it should be caused by negligence, you can rest assured, I will find out this matter when I go back, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer." But this time I'm looking for ......."
Nie Jinglong was about to take the opportunity to persuade Xia Yi to help, when Xia Yi raised his hand and interrupted him.
"You don't have to give me face, if you want to target the Xia family, you can target the Xia family, even if you recruit all the warriors of the Xia family to explore the mysterious place, I don't care. Xia Yi responded generously.
Nie Jinglong's whole body was blindfolded, and he looked at Xia Yi blankly, unable to believe that this kind of words came out of his mouth.
Xia Yi was called "Xia Junzi", naturally because he acted decently and conformed to the image of a "gentleman" in everyone's minds, but what he said was really deviant, ignoring the Xia family, and even bewitching the opponent to target the Xia family.
Nie Jinglong couldn't believe that this was what Xia Yi said, but looking at Xia Yi's serious eyes, it didn't look like he was joking. Also, no matter how much you like to joke, you can't make this kind of joke, it will make others misunderstand.
Unable to make up his mind, Nie Jinglong's eyes looked at Princess Shanyang next to him, this was the first time he was happy that Yin Chuyu was here since he came to Xia Mansion.
