Sheng Nuan turned around and left. After walking a few steps, she met Su Luan and was dragged onto the street by Su Luan.
There were victims of the disaster leaning on both sides of the street with numb expressions everywhere in Youzhou City. Sheng Nuan and Su Luan scattered a lot of coins along the way, but the victims kept kowtowing behind them to thank them.
The two of them went straight into the best restaurant in Youzhou City without staying any longer, asked for a private room and ordered a few dishes.
After sleeping in the open air all the way, both of them wanted to eat something good.
The girls were sitting together eating and chatting. Somehow the subject of Sheng Nuan's marriage came up. While eating, Su Luan complained vaguely: "I asked you to marry the spiritual throne in place of my sister. Your father is really nothing!"
After finishing speaking, he took another bite. As he was chewing, he suddenly realized something. Su Luan paused for a moment, swallowed the food in his mouth and explained dryly: "Well, I'm not very good at talking."
Sheng Nuan couldn't laugh or cry: "I can see it, but what I said is right."
Su Luan chuckled, then lowered his voice: "You didn't say what kind of man you like last time. I have treated many patients and can help you introduce him."
Sheng Nuan was a little hesitant: "I want a healthy one. Is it okay if I don't choose among the patients?"
Su Luan chuckled: "No problem... tell me quickly, what kind do you like?"
Sheng Nuan coughed dryly: "I haven't gotten the wife release letter yet. Isn't it a good idea to talk about this now..."
Su Luan opened his eyes wide: "It's just a chat, we can prepare first. I like smart and smart people, because my master said that I am lacking in strength, so I have been looking for someone smarter."
Sheng Nuan was amused: "I like good-looking, well-behaved and obedient people..."
Su Luan winked at her: "Okay, I understand."
It's such a coincidence that just when the two of them were about to go back after eating, they passed by a human market, where traffickers sell people, and a figure fell at their feet.
Sheng Nuan and Su Luan stopped together and saw a ragged young man with dirty cheeks but very beautiful facial features.
"Sister, please do me a favor and save me. I don't want to be sold as a shepherd! Please save me. I will repay you like a cow or a horse."
Sheng Nuan and Su Luan looked at each other, and Su Luan smiled: "I bought it..."
On the other side, Xiao Xuanye was sitting in a large box with a group of people.
The box was made up of two square tables put together. He was sitting at the top, and on his left was Youzhou guard Huo Xiao, as well as other Youzhou officials.
The officials had different expressions, but Huo Xiao kept squinting his peach blossom eyes, with an evil smile on his lips, as if he was ready to watch the fun.
Xiao Xuanye raised his wine glass with a gentle expression: "Throughout the ages, Yanyunguan and Youzhou have shared weal and woe. In the future, I hope to be able to help you at Yanyunguan."
After saying that, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
However, among the rest of the people at the table, someone drank with him, and there were five people who did not drink, including Youzhou guard Huo Xiao, and four other officials.
To be precise, they didn't even raise a toast.
The official surnamed Zhou who was closest to Xiao Xuanye glanced at the wine glass in front of him with a scornful expression: "The Xiao family lost the last battle and Yanyunguan Pass was almost lost. Every time I think about this, I feel sleepless and uneasy... 2
Although the young master is young and promising, he has never commanded an army."
Mr. Zhou looked at Xiao Xuanye with an arrogant and confident expression: "How about I send someone to help."
Xiao Xuanye lowered his eyes and smiled, and in the next moment, several Xuanying guards appeared.
It was as if the secret guards who appeared from the darkness were filled with a deep chill. The expressions of the officials who had not drank suddenly changed: "Xiao Xuanye, what do you mean?"
Someone dropped the wine glass directly.
But the wine glass fell to the ground, and the manpower they had arranged outside showed no movement.
Master Zhou, who had just said that he would ask someone to help Xiao Xuanye, gritted his teeth: "Xiao Xuanye, what do you mean?"
Xiao Xuanye lowered his eyes at the wine glass and said coolly: "When I give you a face, you have to take it."
He flicked the rim of the wine glass in his hand and made a tinkling sound: "Let Mr. Zhou drink."
As soon as he finished speaking, a Xuanying guard picked up the wine glass, pulled Mr. Zhou's hair with one hand and forced him to raise his head, and then... directly stuffed the wine glass into his mouth.
Xuan Yingwei's strength was so great that Master Zhou fell to the ground after letting go of his hand. He couldn't help but dig his hands into his mouth to get out the cup, and then he started twitching... Within a moment, he lost his voice.
The rest of the people held their breath and did not dare to speak. The other three who had not drank turned pale for a moment, then gritted their teeth and looked at Huo Xiao: "Huo Xiao, don't you say something?"
"Me?" Huo Xiao smiled and said, "Okay."
Then those few people saw Huo Xiao holding up his wine glass and said to Xiao Xuanye: "I would like to be the commander's vanguard!"
After saying that, he raised his head and drank it all.
Xiao Xuanye helped him: "It doesn't have to be like this between you and me."
At this moment, the other three realized that Huo Xiao was actually from the Xiao family...
Huo Xiao put down the wine glass and drew his sword directly. Cold light flashed and blood spattered.
A string of blood drops splashed onto Xiao Xuanye's face. Xiao Xuanye looked at Huo Xiao expressionlessly, and saw Huo Xiao grinning: "Accidentally."
Taking the handkerchief from Xuan Yingwei, Xiao Xuanye wiped the blood on his face and said slowly to the others: "Sorry to disturb everyone, I have asked someone to rearrange a table in the private room next door. Sirs
Let’s move over and have a meal.”
The officials couldn't wait to go out, not even daring to take a look at the bodies on the ground.
Xiao Xuanye glanced at Huo Xiao, who shrugged and spread his hands: "You go to eat and I will clean, okay?"
Only then did Xiao Xuanye retract his gaze and turn around to go out...
Huo Xiao asked his men to come in and clean up, and walked to the window to open it for some air. When he passed by the leader who had a wine glass stuffed into his head, he cursed and kicked his feet: "You are a bastard!"
I had been favored by the Xiao family in the past, but now I want to get involved in the military power of the Xiao family, without even looking at whether I have that fate!
He opened the window and sat by the window looking out. The next moment, Huo Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then stood up quickly.
He saw two women passing by together under the window, one was beautiful and refined, the other... her eyes and eyebrows were thick and bright, and his mind was disturbed at a glance.
"Hey, girl..."
When he rushed down to the restaurant with a bloody smell, the two people were gone.
Huo Xiao went upstairs dejectedly. Upstairs, Xiao Xuanye was alone in a private room. Outside were officials from Youzhou City who didn't know how to eat.
A Xuanying guard stood beside him. The Xuanying guard said respectfully: "Master, I found out that it was Sheng Nuan, the fifth daughter of the Sheng family, who saved the life... The Sheng family originally wanted to let their legitimate daughter get involved with the Xiao family.
The in-laws deliberately said it was the fourth lady who died of illness."
Xiao Xuanye had already made a guess, but now that it was confirmed, he felt mixed feelings in his heart.
It turned out that it was really her.
But at this moment, a shadow flew in through the window.
"Master, Madam and Miss Su bought a boy and went back."
Xiao Xuanye was suddenly startled, and his face instantly turned dark...
