[The seventy-first year of the Great Qiankang Dynasty, March 25, noon, south of Chang'an City, under Jinding Mountain]

After Li Qi came to Tianbao Pavilion, after some hard work, he finally persuaded Murong Huan to go to Jinding Mountain to hunt demons with her.

Hearing that the second brother was going to hunt demons, naturally, Murong Yan also had to accompany him, and when the three of them went to the left of Meixuezhai, Li Qi called Yiqing by the way, so the man and the three women gathered together in a group of four people, riding three high-headed horses, and ran to Jinding Mountain in the south of Chang'an City.

Among these four people, Murong Huan's brother and sister are very good at riding, but Li Qi's riding skills were learned hard from her third brother in the palace, and they are not very proficient, while Yiqing has always grown up in the south, but he can't ride a horse.

So, Yiqing had to sit on Murong Yan's horse, the two women were light people, and the yellow horse under Murong Yan's crotch was the best horse in the Tianbao Pavilion, so he didn't feel tired of carrying the two of them.

At this time, Li Qi, who was originally like a master and apprentice with Yiqing, had already ridden side by side with Murong Huan. On the contrary, Murong Yan and Yiqing, who had just met for a short time, had to ride a horse together and follow behind. Yi Qing was puzzled as to why Li Qi was so familiar with Murong Huan, but Murong Yan had always known it, she saw it in her eyes and smiled in her heart......

At this moment, Murong Yan looked at the second brother in front of her and Li Qi talking and laughing together, and walked forward, and her thoughts couldn't help but go back to ten days ago......

In the past ten days, Li Qi has been idle almost a day, and she has to come to her Heavenly Treasure Pavilion every day.

On the evening of March 14, after Murong Huan stopped Murong Yan, Li Qi and Yiqing late at night, at that time, although he first took Murong Yan back to his Tianbao Pavilion, he immediately went out again and came to the south of the city again, at this time, Yiqing was escorting Li Qi back to the palace.

Originally, Yiqing wanted to take Li Qi back to Meixuezhai, but the two only had to walk back more than 100 steps to get home. It's just that Li Qi promised her mother that no matter what the reason, she would not stay overnight, so Yiqing had to escort Li Qi all the way to the north. The Daming Palace they are going to is located in the northeast of Chang'an City, and it is still a long way away.

The two women were frightened by the ghost of the wind just now, and they were hurrying at this time, and there was no one in the silence in the four corners, and the two of them still couldn't help but feel uneasy in their hearts. Although both of them are not afraid of heaven and earth, but when it comes to the critical moment, they still show the heart of an innocent girl at a glance.

The two of them each held a sword in their hands, and walked lightly on their feet. Although they pretended to be calm on their faces, they were already panicked in their hearts, and when Murong Huan suddenly appeared again, Li Qi couldn't help but scream in shock.

Murong Huan said coldly, for the sake of the two of you being his third sister's friends, he specially came to escort him. At that time, Li Qi couldn't care about being angry with the "barrel bowl", so she obediently followed behind Murong Huan......

Under the escort of Murong Huan, Li Qi returned to the palace safely, and Yiqing also went home along the way, and there was nothing to do all night, and everyone was fine.

On the second day, Li Qi rushed to Tianbao Pavilion again.

On the surface, Li Qi came to visit Murong Yan, and also brought a lot of palace delicacies to enjoy with Murong Yan. However, in fact, Li Qi wanted to thank Murong Huan, how could Murong Yan not know this?

So, Murong Yan called the second brother, and the three of them sat together under an old banyan tree in the courtyard, eating and drinking, and chatting casually. Li Qi inadvertently hugged his fist to Murong Huan as a salute, which can be regarded as expressing his gratitude, of course, Murong Huan immediately smiled at Li Qi, and he accepted this thanks.

Murong Yan watched from the sidelines, and couldn't help but be amazed in her heart. She thought to herself, I have known my second brother for almost 20 years, and I have almost never seen him treat people with such patience, not only is he willing to spend such a long time chatting with her, but also no matter what the other party asks, the second brother is willing to answer carefully.

As Murong Yan thought, Li Qi and Murong Huan, two people who had no intersection at all, would sit together at this time because of fate, chatting more and more happily and happily.

Li Qi asked Murong Huan about the origin of the cat demon, what kind of magic skills she practiced, and how to catch demons, and Murong Huan answered them one by one. Later, Li Qi even asked about all kinds of rumors in the rivers and lakes, and even the difference between shemales, as well as the so-called "List of Heavenly Treasures" and other issues, but he never thought that Murong Huan could still be patient and explain them to Li Qi one by one...... 89 Literature Network

So, after lunch, without waiting for Li Qi to open her mouth to invite, Murong Yan was the first to propose that she and her second brother go out to look for demons, and Murong Huan readily agreed.

Li Qi's original purpose in coming to Tianbao Pavilion was to drag Murong Huan to catch demons, but when she saw that Sister Xiao Yan had rushed to say that Murong Huan had moved, she winked at Murong Yan again and again to show her gratitude......

Not only that day, but every day after that, Li Qi would almost come to the door to visit, naturally, every day, the three of them would go out together, looking for traces of the cat demon everywhere.

For ten days in a row, Murong Huan went out with Li Qi and Murong Yan every day, sometimes going out of the West Gate to Balin Plain, sometimes going north to the edge of the imperial city, sometimes going south to Qiushuiyuan, and sometimes riding east to Yushan......

For ten days, although they did not find a single hair of the cat demon, they had a great time every day.

In fact, it is not so much that they are working together to find demons, but that they are playing together. At this time, it is the early spring season, the trees in Chang'an City spit green, the flowers are blooming, and the spring is bright and bright, the warm breeze is slightly drunk, so at this time, the three of them step into the spring together, watch the sunset of the Ba Forest, see the evening of the autumn water, watch the sunrise of the imperial city, and the moonset of the Yushan Mountain...... It's a lot of fun.

Maybe it's because Murong Huan is extra free these days, maybe it's because Murong Huan suddenly changed his temperament, anyway, in Murong Yan's heart, he really feels that the second brother is like a different person these days. In my memory, the second brother's cold and arrogant expression has never been seen. In front of Li Qi, the second brother was unexpectedly good-tempered. Not only is he personable everywhere, but he is even more polite in his gestures. Many times, Li Qi still "barrel bowl!" and "that...... Barrel" called him like this, and the second brother was not angry at all!

"Barrel...... "Murong Yan never dreamed that one day her second brother would be called such a strange name, and when the second brother heard it, instead of being angry, he was very happy!

The world is the most unpredictable, Murong Yan saw that the second brother's temperament had become so gentle since she met Li Qi, she naturally decided that the second brother should have really moved her heart this time. When she saw that her second brother was finally able to find her beloved, she naturally felt happy for him from the bottom of her heart.

However, Murong Yan would never know that in the past ten days, for several nights in a row, her father would come to Ding Courtyard every night to meet her second brother, and they had only one topic to talk about - the seventeenth princess.

Murong Yan would never have thought that an important reason for her father to persuade her second brother to have a relationship with the Seventeenth Princess was precisely to protect her.

Murong Yan has long forgotten that a few months ago, Li Ci, the king of Jin, proposed to Tianbao Pavilion several times, in order to marry Murong Yan, Li Xi even put on the position of the princess of the palace, which can be described as full of sincerity, however, Murong Yan still ruthlessly refused, and for Li Ci to ask to see several times after that, she didn't even give the other party a chance to meet.

As the eighth prince of the current emperor, Li Xi, the king of Jin, has five princely beads on his head, and he is deeply favored by the emperor. It is reported that there are countless ministers attached to him by the party, and there are friends of the "eight masters" everywhere in the DPRK and China.

Murong Yan couldn't guess her father's thoughts at the moment, Tianbao Pavilion has been sitting big for many years, and it has been ranked among the "three pavilions in the world", and its momentum is like a mountain in the martial arts, however, in the eyes of the emperor, will there be a suspicion of "the tail is too big to fall"? Even if the Tianbao Pavilion is powerful, it will be difficult to compete with the imperial court, if the emperor really wants to do it, for Tianbao Pavilion, it will be a catastrophe!

"Look! There is Jinding Mountain in front of you......" Murong Yan was contemplating and pondering, and suddenly heard Li Qi shouting in front.

Murong Yan lifted the reins of the horse in his right hand, and the yellow horse under his crotch understood, so he slowly slowed down his steps, Murong Yan raised his eyes and looked, and saw a mountain in front of him, although the mountains were not very high, but the peaks gathered together, stretching horizontally, looking from a distance, there was also a momentum of surging waves......

"Sister Xiaoqi, are we here so soon? you can't be mistaken, right?" Yiqing, who was sitting behind Murong Yan, asked.

"Don't worry, Sister Yiqing!" Li Qi said: "This Jinding Mountain, it's not like I haven't been here......"

After saying that, Li Qi glanced at Murong Huan beside him embarrassedly.
