56. [Zhuxia] Chapter Fifty-Five
Chapter 56 [Zhu Xia]
Hua Mian woke up and opened her eyes. When she found that she was covered with a cloak, she sniffed it like a dog. She was sure that it was mysterious. She held the cloak and hesitated for a while. When she remembered that she should kneel down and admit her mistake with Wugui, Qingque outside had already pushed the door and walked in, and said that she would take Hua Mian to the competition venue.
Hua Mian thought to herself, she could not escape from the master's nose and dared not act rashly. It seemed that it was okay to bully a maid.
So he got up from the couch with "Oh" and lifted up his skirt to confirm that the injury on his leg had healed. As soon as his feet fell from the couch, he heard Qingque say, "Fortunately the girl is still there. The master said, if you lose the person, Qingxuan and Qingque will be punished."
Huamian: "…"
Hua Mian suddenly felt that her master seemed to be more like a fox than the fox of the fox clan. He had a good plan for everything, and it would be fine if she could escape. Even if she was soft-hearted, she was most afraid of dragging others down. That would be really annoying.
After thinking about Qingxuan's guard, although he talked a lot on weekdays, it was not annoying. He couldn't cheat others for no reason. Fortunately, he nodded obediently, looked at the blood on the hem of the skirt, asked Qingque for clean clothes, and then followed her to the competition venue.
When Hua Mian walked to the competition venue wearing the maid's clothes, there were already crowds of people. The fox prince Shangguan Yanyang leaned against the VIP seat, and a slender hand was dragging his chin, looking lazily at the competition platform not far away.
On the competition stage, two slender figures, one black and one white, were fighting hard to part with!
Xuan Ji held an ordinary soft sword in his hand, with the sword as if it was astonishing as a terrifying geese and a swimming dragon. Each move was calm and motionless like a flowing cloud. The sound of the sword's edge breaking through the wind forced another person to the edge of the competition platform in a few strokes.
This person is Shangguan Zhuoyue.
Surprisingly, the second prince of the Fox clan, who is famous for his literary and martial arts, is no problem with his own hands. He is now forced to a dead end by Xuan Ji's sword technique. He is not anxious and smiles always on his handsome face. When the soft sword is handed to him, his slender index finger and middle finger are tied together, and he leaps gently, and then jumps for life. The next second he returns to the middle of the competition stage, which immediately causes violence and cheers!
Xuan Ji was only seventeen or eighteen years old at this time, and his swordsmanship was already famous in Zhuxia Continent. Now, seeing Shangguan Zhuoyue can take so many moves under him, even Hua Mian was a little scared.
He subconsciously looked at Shangguan Yanyang, the first general of the fox clan. Although his eyes were lazy and smiling as he looked at his brother giving the fox clan leader's face, he actually didn't know if the smile had reached the bottom of his eyes...
I heard that the fox clan is good at pursuing power, and even if it is their own brothers, they will always fight to the death at critical moments.
Hua Mian stopped far away with Qingque, looked at it with her sleeves for a while, and muttered in a low voice as if she was talking to herself: "...How long have you been fighting? Are you endless?"
It was very noisy around. After Huamian stood in a lie, she would never have thought that her voice would make two men on the martial arts competition stage pause at the same time. However, Zhuoyue had a bigger reaction. She turned her head and looked at Huamian who was standing there in the maid's suit. A trace of doubt flashed in her eyes-
With just one or two seconds of time difference, Xuan Ji was the first to come back. He swept his feet and put Zhuo Yue down. Zhuo Yue was caught off guard and fell to the ground in a mess. The next second, the soft sword in Xuan Ji's hand wiped his face and penetrated it deeply into the competition platform, leaving a crack.
Xuan Ji stood up, narrowed his eyes slightly, turned his head to look at Hua Mian, then withdrew his gaze, bowed and said slowly: "Your Highness the Second Prince."
Shangguan Zhuoyue also got up from the ground, patted the dust on her body, ignored Xuan Ji, but turned her head and smiled at Hua Mian. When she looked at her, she said to Xuan Ji: "I shook my eyes in an instant. When I saw you, Wuliang Palace maid, I thought I had seen an old friend."
Xuan Ji raised his eyes and looked at Hua Mian in his eyes.
After a moment of salvage, he seemed quite cold and said, "That maid is the daughter of my slave in Wufutu Island. Since she was born, she has never left Futu Island. The Second Prince is afraid that his prince has recognized the wrong person."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Zhuoyue didn't understand what Xuan Ji was doing and said lies, so she simply "um" and ignored his words.
Fortunately, there was a person who saw the scene, named Qingxuan. Qingxuan guard walked out and smiled and said that the time was almost done. The dinner was already ready. Please let all the adults move. Hua Mian heard this and was a little empty. She thought of one thing: Why is it another dinner? I will be anxious if anyone lets me drink tonight.
Perhaps because Hua Mian's purpose was too clear, Xuan Ji walked over directly, stood in front of her, bent down and swept the dust that did not exist on Hua Mian's shoulder with his hands...
Then he said in a voice that only Huamian could hear: "Follow Qingque Marquis. If you have the courage to run, you must have the ability to not be caught by me."
Huamian was threatened before she could be a husband, her face turned slightly red, and she took a step back: "I won't run."
Xuan Ji curled his lips without laughing.
Hua Mian thought for a while and asked, "...Master, are you unhappy when you won the competition?"
Xuan Ji: "?"
Hua Mian: "... Otherwise, why are you suddenly so fierce?"
Xuanji: "..."
Xuan Ji was a little helpless.
I don’t know what is magical about the water and soil of the Buddha Island. I have raised such a simple and straightforward little guy like a mentally retarded person... If I release the Buddha Island, I may not be able to survive for three days outside.
"I'm in a good mood," Xuan Ji glanced at her lightly, "Fuck Hao Qingque, don't run around. The fox prince seemed to be interested in you too. He caught him and took him alive and I don't care about you."
"……………………………………” Devour alive? Hua Mian widened her eyes slightly and stuttered, "Everyone is all fairies, why are they too anxious to fight each other?"
Xuan Ji stood up straight: "Then you try."
After saying this threatening and open nature concluding remark, the man turned and left.
Hua Mian had no choice but to tiptoe and looked at the direction where Xuan Ji left. At this time, Qing Que called out. Hua Mian had no choice but to shrink her neck. While uneasy about Xuan Ji's words, she followed Qing Que's butt and left behind in shame.
...
The dinner here was about to start, and Qingque was busy arranging the orders. When the two arrived at the kitchen, Huamian followed Qingque stupidly at the beginning and watched Qingque shouting at the kitchen's inventory plates, placing cold pastries, and couldn't help anything. Finally, she sat upright beside her in a daze, looking at the chef and maid who were busy holding the plates, with a paralysis in her mind, all over her mind.
Or run away.
Or run away.
Why don't you run away?
Wugui's sword sheath had no sword soul, as cold as a dead object and fragile, it was possible that Xuan Ji would fall to the ground without holding a firm hand and smash it into two... Hua Mian had never left the sword sheath body for so long, and Wugui was definitely angry.
…………………………………… The more I think about it, the more I become scared.
Hua Mian stood up, and while Qingque was furious with an unwiped plate, he closed his sleeves and lowered his body, and quietly walked out of the kitchen. He pinched an invisibility decision the first second when his feet fell on the ground outside. He let out a long breath and walked back, thinking about how he rolled around and admitted his mistake when he saw Wugui, and escaped.
Thinking that things were so fascinating, he bumped into a strong chest in the corridor as soon as he turned around. Hua Mian took a few steps back while covering the tip of the nose that was hit. Then he heard someone sneering in his ears. The laughter looked quite familiar. He looked up and looked at him with a pair of smiling fox eyes. He was now looking at him.
Huamian: "…"
Looking at the entire Wuliang Palace, the only one who could see her hidden figure was Shangguan Zhuoyue.
Hua Mian thought of the way he was fucked to the ground by his master in the morning, so she felt a little embarrassed when she met. She closed her sleeves and lowered her head and said "I can't see" to herself, and wanted to escape like an ostrich-
As a result, he was naturally dragged back with his neck.
"Why," Zhuo Yue's voice sounded from behind his ears, with a hint of joking, "I just lost the competition, I was embarrassed in front of everyone, and the royal family was disgraced. When I saw me, I was like a mouse and a cat. Could it be that I was guilty?"
Hua Mian moved her lips and turned around and looked embarrassed.
After looking at Zhuoyue, she was wearing a white coat that seemed extremely expensive. At this moment, there were some signs of wear and dust on the hem. After careful consideration, it must be what he encountered when he fell to the ground just now... Hua Mian lowered her eyes: "My master is the best in the world in Kung Fu. You can't beat him. What does it have to do with me?"
As soon as I finished speaking, I felt that I had said the wrong thing.
Sure enough, the scene was in an awkward silence. Then when Hua Mian had time to apologize with the fox prince, the man sighed and said "It's really ruthless", raised his hand and raised Hua Mian's chin... Seeing her raised her face obediently, he bent down to her lips, sniffed her fair and perky nose, and her slender fingertips rubbed against Hua Mian's chin.
Hua Mian, who accompanied him narrowed his eyes slightly, like a kitten with his chin scratched.
Shangguan Zhuoyue saw her well-behaved look and felt itchy again, and her lips were not far from Huamian: "Have you done the kiss I mentioned last night?"
"Um."
"With someone else?"
"Um."
"People you like?"
“…”
"Yi Xuanji."
“…”
Hua Mian showed a hesitant expression and did not answer Shangguan Zhuoyue quickly. However, the man smiled slightly, not looking angry at all that he had done a dowry for others... Looking at the little girl in front of him with a confused look on his face, he knew that she had no idea about "like" and was eager to get close to Yi Xuanji, but because he was her master.
It's still time to do it.
After letting go of Huamian, Shangguan Zhuoyue quickly thought about it in her heart—
When he became an adult, the Fox Emperor, his father, approved him forty-two cities, three of which were surrounded in a half-moon shape on the edge of the Western Wilderness. Among them, the Black Moon City was the richest, because the human businessmen had to go north to do business and had to pass through the city, and the annual tax was a large amount of income...
——Yi Xuanji cannot be moved by this city.
What's more, if all three cities are given up, the Western Wilderness human race can send troops on the edge of the city with confidence, expanding the human race territory for more than ten miles...
Which race has more land, rich or poor land? It doesn't matter to Shangguan Zhuoyue at this time. He knew that Yi Xuanji must have cared, so he had some calculations in his mind: He didn't know that Hua Mian was the sword sheath of Wugui Sword, and he was willing to exchange three cities for her a maid, so how could there be a more cost-effective business in the world?
If the Fox Emperor knew that, he would probably be so angry that he would have been bald.
Yi Xuanji's mouth is about to be upset, okay.
Thinking of this, Shangguan Zhuoyue is already confident about this matter.
So his eyes turned around in his sockets, and he pulled La Huamian's hand: "Little Sword Scabbage, if your master doesn't want you, would you like to go with me? I will naturally treat you well."
Hua Mian was puzzled when she heard this: "Why would he not want me?"
Shangguan Zhuoyue saw her for granted, and when she saw that Xuan Ji wanted her, she felt a bit perverted pleasure in her heart when she thought of what expression she would be when she was abandoned for a while...
That's better.
The more sad you are, the more you will be, the more you will be. It is best to pinch it while the buds are just emerging...
