Chapter five hundred and seventy-ninth infatuation
Before Helian Changji finished speaking, there were already many people in the audience praising the old village owner for his unparalleled qualities. The old lady on the round table looked livid, and did not immediately accept the paper scroll Ye Cai offered with both hands, but turned her head to look at it.
A glance at Yuwen Lingfeng.
Yu Wen Lingfeng understood, stood up and took the paper scroll with both hands, then squeezed out a smile and said to Helian Changji: "The common people thank your Majesty for your kindness."
"Young master, there is no need to be polite, but I hope you will pay more attention to the contract." Helian Changji took the opportunity to remind him again.
Before coming to Jiange, the old lady had been at odds with Helian Changji for a long time, because she didn't know whether to carve those four characters in front of the mountain gate, but the insidious Helian Changji actually made it clear in front of many masters who came to compete in martial arts to find a bride.
Speaking out, Hanjian Villa was forced to act according to Helian Qingfeng's wishes.
As for the bet, the old lady did not want to renege on the debt. She just wanted to include in the proportion those who had left the villa and entered the officialdom over the years. However, the tactful Helian Changji refused to agree, saying that he wanted to ask the emperor for instructions.
As soon as possible, the villa will select two out of ten men of suitable age to serve the court and the army.
Hanjian Villa has a promise of nine tripods. People in the Zhou Dynasty have always believed in this, and its reputation is a hundred times better than that of the royal family. Therefore, the old lady is not willing to deny the bet signed by her husband. At this time, she saw Helian Changji
Taking this opportunity, he once again reminded him. He couldn't help but get angry and said to Helian Changji in a deep voice: "Is Your Highness doubting the credibility of Hanjian Villa?"
"The old lady misunderstood, I didn't mean that." Helian Changji said with a smile.
"If you don't mean it, please don't say anything. I'm feeling a little unwell, so I'm sorry to be with you." After saying this, the old lady immediately stood up and walked away.
"Minzhi, send mother to rest." Yu Wen Lingfeng motioned to his wife to accompany her. Since the news of her father Yu Wen Chongxiao's death came, her mother Deng could not bear the blow, and her body bones suddenly became much weaker.
"Old madam, I'm sorry, it was Changji who made a mistake." Helian Changji hurriedly apologized to the old man and bowed, but when he lowered his head, a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Everyone, please have a meal. I have a good rest today, and I will go on stage to compete tomorrow. Your Highness, please also invite me." Yuwen Lingfeng no longer gave Helian Changji a chance to speak to everyone.
"Young Master, please." Helian Changji immediately restored his smile, and there was no trace of the old lady's apology on his face.
After three drinks, some people had the courage to propose a toast to the prince and the young owner, but Cang Qiong and Linghuye didn't seem to have the slightest intention of currying favor with the prince. They raised their glasses in the distance as a gesture, then left the banquet and went back to the room, saying goodbye.
Didn't even bother to say anything.
He Qizhou was about to leave when he heard a drunk man shouting: "We are all here for Miss Qi, why don't we see her show up?"
Suddenly, many people started making noise again, clamoring to see Miss Qi.
He Qizhou just raised his buttocks and slowly sat down again. He looked at the table where the commotion was the loudest, and was surprised to find that the Hu brothers were among them, but there was no one with similar stature to Helian Changying among the people at that table.
"Junior sister Xi Jing hates this kind of scene the most. If anyone can win three games in a row, she will come forward. Please don't yell anymore." Yu Wen Lingfeng said in a deep voice.
"This is Hanjian Villa! Did you think it was a wine shop or a teahouse? If you don't shut up, you won't be rude!" Helian Changji said angrily to the Hu brothers.
"Prince, please calm down. You must be here because of Miss Qi, right? Why don't you come out first and see your true appearance." Hu Kun stood up and contradicted her because he was "drunk".
"Bold slave!" Ye Cai stood up and shouted at Hu Kun.
"Aren't you a fucking slave?" Hu Kun didn't buy it and pointed at Ye Cai and cursed loudly. Now that the third prince and the eldest prince are likely to join forces to deal with Helian Changji, Helian Changying does not have the confidence to do so.
Weak, as a personal bodyguard, Hu Kun would not let go of this opportunity to show his loyalty.
"You..." Ye Cai was about to attack, but was interrupted by Helian Changji who glanced at Shen Tinggu: "Stop the quarrel and don't disturb the tranquility of the Villa."
Although Shen Tinggu was a close confidant of the emperor, he was also a disciple of Wu Shi. Helian Changji was obviously quite afraid of this leader of the Fire Hall, and was unwilling to use this place as a place for a battle with Helian Changying.
"Everyone should go to bed early after dinner. Don't walk around at will or fight in private at night. If you offend my mother, don't blame me for being unkind." Yu Wen Lingfeng suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice.
Since Helian Changji and the three Chengzong masters who accompanied him lived in the next room, He Qizhou, who originally wanted to visit the villa at night, finally resisted. The only courtesy the villa offered to the prince was that only the four of them were accommodated in one room.
. Surrounded by evil wolves, He Qizhou stayed awake almost all night on the earthen bed.
Although He Qizhou let Luo Yu sleep on the edge of the earthen kang, the little girl could not fall asleep with seven men on the same kang. Amidst the constant snoring, Luo Yu tossed around He Qizhou almost all night. Fortunately, it fell into the night in the mountains.
It was quite cold later, and none of the people living in the same room would sleep naked, otherwise Luo Yu would not know how to deal with himself.
He Qizhou had been lying on his back with his hands on his hands, but his heart was in turmoil:
I don’t know how many of these people who came to compete were from the Northern Zhou Dynasty. If I exposed my identity in order to recruit relatives for the competition, would it implicate Xiaoxue and Luo Yu? Would Hanjian Villa be in trouble? And in the future
Shen Tinggu and Helian Changji are very familiar with him. As long as he meets a stronger opponent, he will definitely be seen through by them!
Helian Changji has brought so many masters, as well as Helian Changying and Cullen, and the forces in Xuanzhou. If Hanjian Villa also joins the ranks of arresting him as a "key criminal", then there is almost no possibility of his escape.
!What’s even more frightening is that he has been using the pseudonym Zhou Qi, and Helian Changji knows this very well!
But if the person recruiting the bride is really Xiaoxue, can he just watch others succeed in snatching the bride? He Qizhou felt that his head hurt like never before.
…
"Brother, how are you? Do you see clearly?" Yuwen Lingyun asked Yuwen Lingfeng who had just returned from the banquet. Also waiting anxiously in the study was Xu Muxue, who was dressed in elegant clothes.
"There is no resemblance to the person in this portrait." Yu Wen Lingyun pointed to the wanted portrait spread out on the desk and continued: "The hair is also black, and the name 'Zhou Qi' is too common. It should be someone with the same name.
.”
"Miss Xiaoxue, we looked at each other from a distance on the bamboo tower during the day. We are close in stature, but our faces are indeed very different. Could it be that we are disguised?" Yuwen Lingyun said.
"It doesn't look like he's having trouble." Yuwen Lingfeng didn't notice the strange look on He Qizhou's face.
"He really has no face, otherwise Zhou Ting wouldn't be able to draw this wanted poster. But I still want to take a look. I should be able to tell the difference by listening to the voice." Xu Muxue was extremely disappointed, but still had a trace of fantasy. She was
I know that He Qizhou used the pseudonym Zhou Qi.
Yuwen Lingfeng shook his head and said: "The imperial court has sent so many people here this time, so we'd better be careful and let's talk about it tomorrow. By the way, does He Qizhou have any apprentices? I asked my fourth uncle specifically before dinner, and he said
This Zhou Qi has an apprentice who is sixteen or seventeen years old. He is very good at the Zhongzhou Changquan, and he can hold up six moves in the sword formation."
Xu Muxue was even more disappointed and said, "I've never heard of him accepting disciples."
"Oh, by the way, the fourth uncle also said that this Zhou Qi was extremely accurate with his hidden weapon. Without looking back, he threw a stone with his backhand and hit a rude spectator from a distance of ten feet. He believed that this person definitely had three consecutive victories.
The strength of the field." Yuwen Lingfeng said again.
"Fourth uncle said that it is rare for him to have such a strong Seven Meridians in his life. I guess he should be able to fight against Monk Jiali." Yuwen Lingfeng said.
"Ah? Forget it, don't look at it. He Qizhou's second meridian has been severed, and it is impossible to reach his seventh meridian." The glimmer of hope Xu Muxue had just ignited was instantly extinguished. The rumor that He Qizhou's meridian was severed has long been confirmed by many aspects.
.
"Then wait a little longer. As long as He Qizhou is still in the Zhou Dynasty, he will definitely come after hearing the news." Yuwen Lingyun advised.
"Well. I'm going back first." Xu Muxue lowered her head and left the study sadly.
"What are you still looking at? Everyone has left." Yu Wen Lingfeng said softly to his younger brother who was looking out the door: "You, I still hope that He Qizhou will not come. Then it will be logical to keep this arena and marry Miss Xiaoxue.
After that, you can stay in Zhuangzi with peace of mind and accompany your mother."
Yu Wen Lingyun slowly shook his head and said: "What is really touching about Xiaoxue is her infatuation. She will not marry anyone except He Qizhou, so I will not challenge her."
"But what if someone really succeeds in the challenge? Now Xiaoxue is considered a disciple of my Hanjian Villa. We at Hanjian Villa must practice what we say. If we refuse the marriage then, let alone me, my mother and those uncles will not agree.
!" Yuwen Lingfeng looked solemn.
Yuwen Lingyun gritted his teeth and said: "Except for He Qizhou, I will not let anyone else succeed!"
"Alas, they are all the result of infatuation." Yu Wen Lingfeng sighed softly and walked away.
…
At this moment, the sun slanted through the pine forest, like strands of golden threads shooting towards the pool under the lonely peak. Fang Ming, who was full of energy, was still unable to meet his third opponent. The second opponent only took two moves.
Unable to hold on, he was knocked into the water.
After that, four people successively chose to reschedule the fight to tomorrow or give up the fight. Bi Hanyang, who lived in the same room as He Qizhou, finally decided to stand and watch the arena match for a day without any injuries. The huge gap in strength cannot be overcome by hard work.
The fifth person also postponed an attack the day before yesterday and was hesitating whether to go on stage to give it a try. Fang Ming, who had been waiting for a long time, could no longer bear his temper and shouted at the fifth person who was about to abstain: "Hey, you think
Not considered a man? Are you here to compete in martial arts to find a bride or are you here to watch the fun?"
After he yelled like this, the man had no choice but to bravely go up. After a few moves, he was knocked off the stone platform and walked out of the pool with a sad face.
"No rest, please ask Miss Qi to come up with a question!" Fang Ming shouted with great enthusiasm without waiting for Yu Wenchan to ask questions. This chapter has been completed!
