Hooves, hoofs, hoofs, hoofs...

Several followers followed the carriage and drove along the long street to Wanbao Tower in the city. They didn't say much along the way, but everyone had a bit of surprise and admiration in their eyes, and they glanced at the carriage from time to time.

In the carriage, Hua Qingzhi was sitting beside the chessboard, seemingly still studying the end game, but her mind was not on the chessboard at all. She looked like a good girl who got into trouble and was caught by her father, biting her lower lip from time to time.

He looked down at his father, who was sitting across from him, and quickly turned his gaze back.

Luzhu, on the other hand, was a little timid, so she hugged Niaoniao and ran outside the carriage to sit down.

Hua Junchen leaned against the carriage, and had not yet recovered from the shock. He looked at his daughter who had always been well-behaved not far away, and felt mixed emotions in his heart. He was heartbroken that a good cabbage had been snatched by a wild boar king, and he also felt that his daughter had failed him.

There is nothing left to do.

After all, he doesn't have to know Ye Dayan, and it's impossible for Qingzhi not to know him. When he first arrived at Tianlang Lake, he vaguely expressed his appreciation for Ye Jingtang.

Ye Jingtang is talented and has a high position. It is normal for him to be favored by the little girl's family. Although he has thought about the possibility of entanglement between the two in the future, he is just thinking. They are thousands of miles apart and live in two dynasties. How can they get together?

Together.

But he never expected that the Night Demon, who had gained a great reputation in the Southern Dynasties, was actually a love interest. He ran all the way to the north regardless of the dangers, and even deigned to become a small servant in Washington regardless of his status.

No wonder Qingzhi brings Ye Jingtang with her wherever she goes these days. The two of them are secretly meeting behind his back and letting him take the blame as a father...

"well……"

Hua Junchen was very upset. As a father, he should have disciplined his daughter for having random boyfriends because of this incident.

But the girl is a bit too powerful, with martial arts, appearance, status, and background all-around perfect. The only slightly worse life experience is not that she was born badly, but that King Tianlang is gone. Otherwise, she would be a serious Wang Ting.

Prince.

Under these conditions, he even felt a little superior when seducing his daughter. If he didn't praise his daughter for being capable, it would be a good thing. What reason could he have to say that her daughter was not?

This is to blame, and it is also his fault as a father. If he were the Martial Saint of Beiliang, how could he be suppressed by his son-in-law...

The father and daughter sat in silence for a long time.

Hua Qingzhi guessed that her father should have discovered Mr. Ye's identity, but she didn't know what her father was thinking. She thought that her father was worried that the Hua family would be implicated in Ye Jingtang in the future, so she finally spoke softly:

"How about I tell Hua An and tell him not to come as an errand tomorrow, and draw a clear line between himself and the Hua family from now on..."

Draw a clear line?

When Hua Junchen heard this, he wanted to poke his daughter on the head twice and ask her what she was thinking.

After all, after he knew Ye Jingtang's identity, he asked his daughter to break up with her. Why shouldn't Ye Jingtang bear a grudge against him and the Hua family for this?

Not to mention how overbearing the Demon Lord of the Night is, he is already a hero among the people, enough to influence the situation of the two dynasties, and will only become more powerful in the future. It is impossible to unify the north and the south and follow the old path of Wu Taizu.

Now such a big opportunity is before the Hua family. As long as he makes the right bet, the Hua family will prosper for another three hundred years. If he chooses to draw a clear line and turn against him, his father will beat him half to death when he returns home.

Hua Junchen also knew that he had no control over this matter. Believing in the wisdom of future generations was the best choice at the moment, so he could only sigh softly:

"We're already at home, what's the point of letting people go out again? You're not young anymore. You have your own rules for these things. You don't have to worry about it as a father."

When Hua Qingzhi saw that her father did not send Ye Jingtang away, she was naturally happy in her heart. She pursed her lips and smiled, and did not add anything more.

Gulu gulu...

Soon, the carriage entered the alley on the side of Wanbao Building.

Ye Jingtang kept walking in front of the carriage. When he arrived at the door, he got off his horse and picked Hua Qingzhi off.

Hua Junchen walked out of the carriage and looked at Ye Dayan, who was still a little pleasant to his eyes. He wanted to chat a few words, but he felt that nothing was appropriate. In the end, he just jumped out and walked to the door:

"Send the young lady back to her room to rest. Let's all go and have a rest."

After Ye Jingtang watched Uncle Hua go in, he moved the wheelchair down and placed it behind the threshold.

Hua Qingzhi was helped out of the carriage by Luzhu, and sat down in the wheelchair. After her father disappeared, she asked in a low voice:

"What happened in the alley today?"

Ye Jingtang asked Niaoniao to go back to Aunt Fan to beg for food, pushed Hua Qingzhi towards the back house and said:

"It's not a big deal. Two thieves suddenly appeared. Uncle Hua couldn't beat them. I helped them. The matter has been solved."

Hua Qingzhi was walking on the road just now, but she heard the rumors that were spreading in the city. However, Ye Jingtang said that it was nothing serious, so it shouldn't be serious. She didn't ask any more questions, and just whispered:

"I feel like dad is overthinking. The way he looked at me just now, um..."

The green bead has been sticking to the back of Ye Jingtang's buttocks. Seeing this, he added in a low voice:

"There is no place for women to stay in college."

"..."

Hua Qingzhi sat up a little straighter and wanted to say a few nonsense words to Lu Zhu, but the look in her father's eyes seemed to mean that.

Ye Jingtang knew that Uncle Hua had misunderstood, so he said:

"Just now in the alley, Uncle Hua asked me if I was here for the young lady. I couldn't explain my purpose, so I gave an ambiguous response..."

"ah?"

Hua Qingzhi turned around and looked at Mr. Ye behind her, her eyes slightly shy and anxious:

"I'm just telling you, Mr. Ye, how can you joke about this kind of thing..."

Ye Jingtang also knew that this was wrong and coaxed with a pleasant expression:

"It's only because of the situation. Don't worry, I will make this clear when I leave."

Hua Qingzhi was thinking about what her father had just said, and she felt that her father had already acquiesced in this marriage. If this was delayed in the future, it would get darker and darker.

She wanted to run and explain it to her father now, but in this case, she could not explain the purpose of Ye Jingtang coming to Hua's house. After struggling repeatedly, she still made a resentful look:

"That's all. Anyway, Mr. Ye is very skilled in martial arts. I am a weak woman and can only be at your mercy. I can do whatever I say."

"well."

Faced with this tone of voice, Ye Jingtang didn't know how to respond. He was secretly mulling over words when he saw Hua Ning, who had sent Prince Wang off early in the afternoon, walking out of the aisle.

Hua Ning had just heard the shocking news that the master had been crowned Grand Master. He knew that the master must have been wronged. He didn't dare to show up in front of the master just now. At this time, he took a box and quietly came to Hua Qingzhi:

"Miss, Mr. Wang wanted to send frozen Yanshuang at noon to express his gratitude. I declined on behalf of the young lady. As a result, just now Mr. Wang sent someone to send frozen Yanshuang. He said that he was apologizing for what happened at the banquet on behalf of Mr. Wang, and asked the young lady to convey it on his behalf.

One sound."

When Hua Qingzhi was on the street, she heard that his father killed two people when he went out and Wang Shilang was so frightened that he hid under the table.

Seeing this scene, she guessed that Wang Jiwen was instructed by Wang Shilang to come here to smooth things over. She sighed softly and took the things:

"You take a good painting and give it to Mr. Wang as a return gift. By the way, I would like to convey that my father did not take the drunken jokes to heart and left the meeting early today. I hope Mr. Wang will not take it to heart."

Hua Ning nodded and accepted the order, turned around and ran to the study.

Lu Zhu followed behind, and after Hua Ning left, she lowered her head and looked at the box in the lady's hand:

"Is this the Dongyanshuang that Xijiang pays tribute to? Is it as good as the one we bought in Langxuan City last time?"

"They should all be the same, just the boxes are different."

Hua Qingzhi opened the beautifully decorated wooden box, and there was a painted porcelain box inside. The surface was inlaid with gold and jade. The box alone was probably worth a lot of money. It looked like a tribute from the palace. After looking at it for a few times, she did not open it.

, but handed it to Ye Jingtang:

"Last time I went to Langxuan City, I bought a box of frost cream and gave it to my aunts and sisters to kiss them. There is still a lot left and I can't use it all. You can give this to the one you love, it will definitely please you."

Ye Jingtang shook his head at this and said: "I've already troubled you so much, how can I have the nerve to take your things again."

Seeing this, Luzhu cleverly took the porcelain box and stuffed it into Ye Jingtang's arms:

"The lady is giving it to you, just take it. Why are you so polite? I will send the lady back to her room first."

Saying that, without waiting for Ye Jingtang to respond, he pushed the wheelchair and ran away.

Seeing this, Ye Jingtang felt a little helpless. He took out the porcelain box and looked at it. Because it was not an expensive item and he was not too polite. After watching Hua Qingzhi leave, he returned to the small courtyard.

Fan Qinghe and Zhe Yunli, who didn't go out with them today, probably went shopping together, have now returned to the house.

Ye Jingtang returned to the side house alone. When he walked to the door of Qinghe, he could see that the door was open and the steps were covered with warm yellow lights.

The bird that came back first was jumping around on the veranda with a little stuffed tiger in its mouth. When it saw him, it started to shake its head, obviously to show off.

In the room, there were two female voices:

"We agreed to take me with us next time, and it turned out great. I didn't even look at the appearance of such a powerful old monster as Mu Yunsheng..."

"Today was an accident, and I didn't mean not to take you with me. If I hadn't heard the news today, I would have thought Mu Yunsheng would have died long ago..."

"Is this a bit too big for me?"

"It's not big. You are growing. Now you are looser. You will be full in two months..."

"Why do I only have chest but not height? It feels like it's getting in the way of practicing martial arts..."

"Oh, I don't know how blessed I am when I am surrounded by blessings. Look at your Aunt Shui'er. She is as beautiful as a country. Her chest is almost the same as that of a little girl like you. I want to pinch... cough..."

"What's the catch?"

"Uh... I can't even clamp a sword."

"What is Aunt Lu doing with the sword on her chest? A new move?"
