Li Danqing didn't seem to be in a good mood. He asked Scarface for a bottle of wine, sat alone at the wine table, and drank by himself.
"I know this sword."
"To be precise, this is not a sword, but a scabbard."
"It is not a mortal thing. Just like that extremely evil weapon, it is something that should not appear in the world."
"Now this sword is connected to my little friend's heart and cannot be cut off. If it is forcibly cut off, it will actually kill me."
"Fortunately, the person who made this sword was smarter than me. When he made it, he gave it a sheath that could suppress its edge."
"But just as flaws cannot hide a beauty, there will eventually come a day when the sword cannot hide its edge. Children must be mentally prepared for the day when the sword is unsheathed."
"Although I have realized the Sword Intent of Celestial Elephants through my practice, my state of mind is unstable and I am far from perfect. I gave you a wisp of Sword Intent to my little friend, just to let you understand it. Maybe one day, you can use this sword to control it."
.”
…
What Zhou Jue had just said to him appeared in Li Danqing's mind. In fact, Li Danqing had realized the extraordinary nature of this sword from the beginning, but he just didn't want to think about it, and he really couldn't understand it.
On the contrary, after Zhou Jue solved his doubts, he became worried and uneasy.
"After all, there is no reason in this world for me to harm my son, right?"
"If this young master really dies and goes to hell because of this piece of shit, I will definitely call my 18th generation ancestor and give you, this old bastard, a good beating."
Li Danqing said secretly in his heart, thinking about the scene of a dozen gray-haired old men surrounding Li Mulin, punching and kicking him, and he felt a little better.
There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, forget it, don’t think about it!
Li Danqing said this and simply dropped the matter.
Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps not far away. Prince Li looked back and saw Xu Lian and Xia Xianyin walking side by side from the wing upstairs. The two seemed to be talking about something.
Prince Li, who was in the corner of the hall, didn't notice. He walked down the stairs and walked side by side to the outside of the house.
"In the middle of the night, a man and a woman alone, what are you doing?"
When Li Danqing saw this, he subconsciously wanted to follow him to see what was going on, but he felt that this was inappropriate, so he didn't take a look, feeling uneasy again.
"Xu Lian is born with a sly look, he looks like a beast in his clothes, and he has an affair with the Palace of Eternal Life. Xiao Xianyin is a simple-minded girl, and I will be deceived if I don't protect myself. I have been determined to hoe the strong and support the weak since I was a child, and stop such evil deeds.
Naturally, it is our duty to do so.”
Therefore, the clever Prince Li quickly prepared himself mentally.
He said to himself like this, and felt that this move was quite reasonable. He no longer hesitated at that moment, leaned forward and followed the two of them quietly.
…
This is probably due to the weird nature of the residents of Painted Halberd City. Even if there is really something sneaky, they don't have to wait until night to act. It is estimated that even if they kill the other party, the other party will smile and nod. So in the evening,
The entire streets of Huajicheng were deserted.
This made Li Danqing increasingly feel that it was necessary for him to follow the two of them.
After all, there was no one on the street. If Xu Lian had evil intentions, Xia Xianyin would call the sky and the earth for help. It would be safe to have a righteous person like him, Prince Li, to be vigilant.
As Li Danqing thought about this, he felt more and more that his behavior was justified, and he quickened his pace a little, getting closer to the two of them, but only three or four feet away.
But despite this, Li Danqing still couldn't understand what the two men said.
"What's so shameful that you have to say it so quietly?" After listening for a long time, Li Danqing, who had no clue, couldn't help but cursed secretly in his heart.
Li Shizi's heart was scratching like a cat, and he was so curious that he simply gathered his courage, took a few steps forward, and listened hard.
But I only vaguely heard words such as: getting married and the future.
Li Shizi was startled and a little amused, so he walked a little faster, wanting to get closer so that he could better understand the stage of their marriage discussion.
Li Danqing is also good at prescribing the right medicine to disturb such a marriage.
But as they got closer, the voices of the two became quieter. In the end, there was no sound at all. Li Shizi, who had his ears tilted, frowned and looked forward, but he happened to be facing the two of them who looked back.
His gaze.
Even though Prince Li was as thick-skinned as a city wall, his face felt hot at this moment.
He stood up straight, smiled coquettishly, waved to the two of them, and said awkwardly: "You two are also coming for a walk..."
Then he raised his head and looked around seriously, murmuring in his mouth: "Well, the night in Huaji City is indeed beautiful. Look at the people coming and going on this street, it's so lively..."
Xia Xianyin and Xu Lian looked at the deserted street, and gained a new understanding of Prince Li's ability to tell lies with his eyes open.
"It's hard work for Prince Li to follow him all the way. Since you want to listen, why not just go with him." Xu Lian said with a smile as he looked at Li Danqing, who had poor acting skills.
Hearing this, Li Danqing blinked his eyes and said shyly, "That's so embarrassing."
Although he said this, Li Danqing's body was extremely honest. He stepped back to the side of Xia Xianyin and Xu Lian, and then squeezed directly between them, separating Xia Xianyin and Xu Lian.
Seeing how shameless he was, Xia Xianyin couldn't help but roll her eyes, but Xu Lian didn't care and took a step back with a smile.
"You continue, I will listen." Li Danqing said enthusiastically, without any intention of disrupting the interest of others.
Xia Xianyin's thoughts were disrupted by Li Danqing's appearance, and she didn't know what to say for a moment. Xu Lian, who was standing beside him, smiled and asked, "The prince also lives in Wuyang City. I wonder what impression he has of Mr. Yingli.
"
"Ying Li?" Li Danqing was stunned, "Is he the eldest son of the Ying family? I'm quite familiar with him. We've had drinks together and been to brothels together. But that kid can't do it. He only takes half a quarter of an hour at most.
Surrender is a famous embroidered pillow."
"What's wrong? Brother Xu wants me to intercede for you? This matter is easy to handle..." Li Dan spoke loudly and without restraint.
Xu Lian said: "Xu committed a serious crime of treason. I don't want to implicate the prince anymore. I understand the prince's kindness."
"But there is something that the Crown Prince may not know yet. Young Master Yingli was engaged to Xianyin a few months ago. The wedding date is in the autumn solstice, so it only takes seven months..."
"This matter..."
"What!"
Prince Li immediately realized something was wrong. His voice suddenly became a little louder, and he turned his head and looked in disbelief.
When he turned to Xia Xianyin, he saw that Xia Xianyin was lowering his head and did not dare to look at her.
Li Danqing hurriedly said: "That kid can't do it. He is a famous silver gun wax head. He is neither attractive nor useful. This thing can't be done..."
Li Danqing's slightly panicked look fell into Xu Lian's eyes. Xu Lian glanced at Xia Xianyin who was standing aside and said, "You see, Prince Li also feels that this matter is inappropriate."
"After leaving Wuyang City this time, Xu can't go back. Xian Yin is involved in these things, and I'm afraid she will encounter something unexpected when she goes back. I want to persuade her to leave, but Xian Yin has no relatives or friends in this world.
Where to go, I just don’t know if the prince is willing to take her in."
"Huh?" Li Danqing looked strange when he heard this.
He originally thought that Xu Lian was an enemy who wanted to seize people, but he didn't expect him to be an ally who was willing to help others.
After a brief period of confusion, Li Danqing came to his senses and was about to agree.
"I will not leave Wuyang City!" But at this moment, Xia Xianyin's voice suddenly sounded.
Li Danqing and Xu Lian were stunned at that time, and both looked at Xia Xianyin.
"I want to reverse the case for my father and the Qing family of the Xia family. If I escape, the world will only say that the daughter of the guilty minister cannot be reused, and that our Qingxia family will only produce rebellious ministers and traitors. My father and Uncle Qing are the leaders of the Wuyang Dynasty.
Working hard, they shouldn’t have such a reputation!”
Xia Xianyin faced the two men's gazes and spoke firmly.
"I know that Brother Xu brought me to Huaji City to protect me and to give me a chance to choose. I won't ask Brother Xu what he wants to do, but I also ask Brother Xu, don't worry about Xian Yin.
When it comes to planning my life, I have my own way to go."
Xia Xianyin's words made Xu Lian a little stunned. He said, "But you are not happy."
Xia Xianyin was stunned, and her tone was a little lower: "In the past, I thought that as long as I could reverse the case of the Xia Qing family, I would pay any price, but since I met certain people..."
Speaking of this, she paused and looked at Li Danqing aside: "At least there is some price I can't pay. After I go back, I will cancel my marriage to Ying Li... That's not what I want."
"Leaving Wuyang City without permission, and canceling the marriage has offended the Ying family. Both crimes are punishable. You will have a difficult time in Wuyang City in the future." Xu Lian narrowed his eyes and said meaningfully.
"But that's the path I chose and the path I want to take."
"No matter how difficult it is, I will keep going." Xia Xianyin said firmly.
Xu Lian was stunned for a moment, then smiled. He looked at Xia Xianyin and said sincerely: "You have grown up."
Xia Xianyin also smiled, then he looked at Li Danqing and asked: "What about you? You will let me go back, right?"
Li Danqing shrugged his shoulders and said: "My prince has never liked to force others to make things difficult for them. This matter is only interesting if it is based on your own will."
"As long as you remember that we have to give birth to a hundred children, time is very tight, so don't delay too long."
Xia Xianyin's face turned red when he heard this, he rolled his eyes at Li Danqing, and was about to scold him.
clang!
clang!
clang!
But at this moment, the sound of iron was heard in my mind.
Her head was in a trance, and she said with a stunned expression.
