First Lady of the Crown Prince

   Chapter 670

  On the martial arts field of the Han family's back mountain, Han Shizi slashed down with a red spear, knocking his opponent back several steps.

  After the opponent stabilized his figure, he bowed his hand to Han Shizi and said, "Shizi, I lost!"

  Han Shizi was sweating profusely, panting slightly, he threw the red spear in his hand to the guard aside, and said: "Get out, remember to heal."

"Yes!"

  The Han family deceased who was facing Han Shizi left the martial arts field with the help of two guards.

  A long follower holding a clean towel walked forward.

  Han Shizi took the towel and wiped the sweat off his face, turned his head and said to the middle-aged man who had been watching the battle: "Second uncle, how?"

  The man called the second uncle by Han Shizi is the second master of the Han family, Han Yong.

  Han Yong walked over with his hands behind him: "I have made progress compared with the previous month."

  Han Shizi quickly eased his breathing. He was obviously not very satisfied with the result, and he continued to ask: "How is it than Xuanyuansheng back then?"

  Xuanyuan Sheng, the eldest son of the Xuanyuan family, a famous martial arts wizard in the six countries, has won the true biography of Xuanyuan Li, and is known as the only person who can catch up with the Xuanyuan God of War.

  Han Yong used to be under Xuanyuansheng’s command.

  Han Yong pondered for a moment, and said, “You are still young, and if you continue to practice martial arts, you may not be able to reach the height of Xuanyuansheng.”

   "So I still couldn't surpass him." Han Shizi's guard with a red spear stretched out his hand.

  The guard understood, and handed him the red spear with both hands.

  Han Shizi practiced another round of marksmanship, and every move was murderous.

  After training, he himself was a little dissatisfied, frowned, and said, "Is not as good as Xuanyuanli's magic weapon."

Han Yong smiled and said: "You don't have to worry, Xuanyuan Sheng is not necessarily as good as you are at your age. He went to the battlefield early and was killed in the dead. What you lack is also what you lack. It's just a chance for some experience."

  Han Shizi threw the red spear to his guard again.

  The red gun was too heavy, and the guard staggered for several steps, and almost missed it.

  Han Shizi said: "Are there any new masters in Shengdu recently?"

Han Yong said: "Are you talking about the underground martial arts field? Not yet. I will notify you when I have it and let you go to the martial arts competition. Actually, the dead men of the Han family are also good, but it's a pity that they are not the most suitable opponents because of their different paths. "

  The martial arts of the dead are not the most suitable opponents for training, regardless of high or low. Fighting against them only stimulates the instinct of killing, not the advancement of martial arts.

  Han Yong continued: "In Shengdu, you already have a hard time meeting an opponent. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Ah, yes, I almost forgot to tell you something."

  Han Shizi said: "Second uncle, please tell me."

  Han Yong said: "The monarch’s birthday is coming. The concubine and the empress let someone take a message from the palace and let your two brothers enter the palace for a banquet."

  Han Shizi paused, and said, "Cheer was hurt like that, I'm afraid I can't go."

  Han Yong smiled and said, "You can go."

  Han Shizi didn’t say whether he was going or not, but instead asked, “Isn’t the monarch late to live? Why is there a birthday banquet all of a sudden?”

  The birth dates of the monarch and the prince are on the same day. Since the prince’s collusion with the Xuanyuan family to rebel, the birth of the monarch has never been recklessly managed.

  Han Yong sighed and shook his head: "Who knows? Our majesty is the most moody and weird. No one can guess what he is thinking."

   "My son!"

  As they talked, the two masters sent to stalking came back. Both were Han Shizi's close guards, one named Sun Feng and the other named Zheng Hai.

  It was Sun Feng who had his wallet stolen.

  The two saluted Han Shizi together.

  Han Shizi looked at the two people's gray-headed look, and asked faintly: "Why did you come back so early? Who do you want to follow?"

  The two looked at each other, and Sun Feng bit his scalp and arched his hands in reply: "Follow, follow me lost."

   "Did you follow me?" Han Shizi was slightly surprised, "You two can still lose people?"

  The two were ashamed.

  They are Han Shizi’s confidant guards, and they are not small in their ability. When helping Han Shizi seldom miss, it is their carelessness today.

   "Sun Feng's purse was also stolen." Zheng Hai said.

  Sun Feng glared at Zheng Hai: "Didn’t you tell you not to mention this?"

  Dignified Han guard let a little thief go in his purse? Isn't it embarrassing to say it out?

  Sun Feng already understood that the purse was taken by the little girl.

   But this is the case. He and Zheng Hai did not associate her with the kid to be stalked. After all, one is a woman and the other is a man.

  Han Shizi gave them a cold look: "Go down and receive the punishment by yourself."

"Yes!"

  The two bowed out.

  Han Yong asked: "Who is so good that he dumped all of your people?"

  Han Shizi said indifferently: "A student who came from the country has some ability to defeat Cheer. I want to see if there is anyone instructing him behind him."

"Oh? It turns out that Che'er was injured by a subordinate man." Han Yong was angry and funny, "bullying the Han family's son, isn't this too old to break the ground? There are very few people who have the guts to do this, not Mu. Home is the Nangong family."

  The Mu family is grieving, and the Nangong family is fighting for military power.

  Han Shizi looked at the flowers in the garden, staring at him and said: "He is indeed Mu Qingchen's classmate, but Mu Qingchen will not do this. Mu Qingchen will only rush to me if something happens, not against Che'er."

  Han Yong touched his chin, thoughtfully: "Then only Nangong's house is left."

  Han Shizi frowned slightly: "Nangong family?"

  Han Yong nodded, and said bluntly: “Yes, the Nangong family has always wanted our Black Wind Cavalry, and we have always been eyeing the Nangong family’s military power. Sooner or later it will be a matter of confrontation.”

  Han Shizi pondered for a moment, and said, “Why do I think it’s not the Nangong family?”

  Han Yong said, "Apart from the Nangong family, who else will come to deal with the Han family? Is the Wang family? The Wang family has no such thoughts."

As he said, seeing his nephew still looks contemplative, he smiled lightly, "Don't you think he has the courage to provoke the Han family? Don't say that he is just a descendant, that is. The prince of the country family has never been able to contend with the entire Han family on his own, as long as he is not crazy, he will not do this."

   "Besides, don't you think it is a strange thing that a few students from Zhaoguo suddenly came here? We have never had students from Zhaoguo in our academy in Yanguo."

  Han Shizi frowned: "You mean they got it from the Nangong family?"

  Han Yong said again: "Do you remember that General Nangong was cut off by the bandits?"

  Han Shizi said: "Remember."

Han Yong sneered: "General Nangong did not return to his hometown to worship his ancestors at all, but went to Zhaoguo in secret. His arm was not injured by the bandits at all. I don't know what happened. However, it was not long before he returned to Sheng. These Zhaoguo people are here, do you think it is a coincidence?"

  ……

  After Gu Jiao returned to the house, she told her family about Gu Chengfeng's coming to Shengdu.

  The family members are very surprised.

   "He doesn't have a guide, how did he get here?" Nan Shiniang asked, "It won't be..."

  Gu Jiao said, "I've been marked as a slave."

  Senior Nan took a breath.

  The second child of Gu's family is too cruel, and he will not hesitate to be marked as a slave in order to Laishengdu. This mark will accompany him for a lifetime.

   "Then he is okay?" Nan Shiniang asked.

  Gu Jiao said: "I found a suitable hiding place, nothing is wrong for the time being."

"This child..." Madam Nan doesn't know what to say. The children of the Gu family are really more stubborn than the other, and they have to do things that they recognize at all costs. For example, Gu Changqing who wants to heal Gu Jiao, and for example, he wants to heal Gu Changqing. Gu Yan's Gu Jiao.

  Now there is another Gu Chengfeng.

  However, this is not a bad thing for Gu Jiao and Gu Yan. They are unaccompanied in Shengdu, and it is always good to have multiple helpers.

  Two days later, Gu Jiao went to the residence of Lord Yanshan. The little princess was still afraid to mount the horse. Gu Jiao still grabbed the horse unceremoniously, and finished the riding lesson in a burst of crying.

   "The next few days...er! You don't need to...er!"

  The little princess cried so much that he hiccups, and even stopped crying after dismounting, the hiccups still didn’t stop.

   "You speak slowly." Gu Jiao said.

"I'm slowly... uh!" The little princess burped again, thinking that it would be better to make a long story short in his own state, "I can't go to class... uh! Uncle Jun in our country wants to… uh! Longevity… uh! My father is not here...er! I want to...er! Go to the banquet for him...er!"

  In fact, there is still some time before the birthday banquet of your majesty uncle, but she has to live in the palace ahead of time, so she cannot attend classes for the time being.

  This is exactly what Gu Jiao wants, because Gu Jiao is about to prepare for the next kicking match, and there is a high probability that there is no time to come and teach her.

   "Then we will learn how to ride horses when the little county king is finished."

   "Pull the pocket."

  The little princess immediately covered her mouth.

  She is notoriously eloquent and talkative, but she is too young to speak a few words very well.

  Gu Jiao bends the corners of her lips and stretches out her fingers, not to mention her pronunciation.

  The little princess also stretched out his little finger and hooked Gu Jiao.

  The night before the kicking game, Master Wu took Gu Jiao and his party into the inn last time as usual.

  Mu Chuan couldn’t help muttering bitterly when he entered the inn: “Didn’t we win last time? How come we still live in such a shabby inn?”

  Isn't this because of the tight budget?

   Honestly speaking, the academy did allocate a little more money. However, this year's kicking game was extremely hot, which caused the price of the inn to rise again and again.

Master Wu patted his chest and said: "I promise you that as long as you win this game, I will pay you out of my pocket and give you a better inn in the finals!"

  Mu Chuan pouted, obviously not convinced.

Master Takeshi looked at the other students again, and the other students also looked suspicious.

  Master Takeshi said: "What's wrong with this inn? There is a lantern festival tonight! It's around here! I'm a specially chosen inn! Allow you to... go shopping for the lanterns tonight! Come back before Haishi!"

  This is the biggest concession Takeshi can make.

  Mu Chuan suddenly became interested, and got close to Gu Jiao, and went upstairs with Gu Jiao: "Hey, Liu Lang, you haven't visited the Lantern Festival in Shengdu, right?"

   "Yeah." Gu Jiao stepped upstairs.

  Mu Chuan smiled and said, "Let’s go and see it later?"

   "Okay." Gu Jiao responded.

  Mu Chuan looked back at Mu Qingchen behind him: "Fourth brother, are you going? Forget it, you will definitely not go." His fourth brother is not interested in lanterns.

  A few people came to the second floor. Mu Qingchen opened the door of her room and looked in Gu Jiao's direction: "See you at the door."

  Mu Chuan was taken aback, the fourth brother meant to go?

  See you after a long time, his fourth brother also went to the Lantern Festival one day?

  Zhao Wei and Yuan Xiao also had nothing to do, and gathered at the door together.

  Teacher Takeshi also came.

   Mu Chuan's smile froze: "Master Wu, what are you doing here?"

   Master Taker said with a serious face: "I thought about it, I'd better be with you, otherwise I'm not at ease."

   Mu Chuan: "..."

  About the lanterns, Master Wu didn't lie to them. It was indeed near the inn. Just walk a hundred steps forward and make a bend.

  A whole long street, the lamp market is like a rainbow, and it is full of brilliance. On both sides are stalls with lanterns. Vendors are making lanterns and shouting vigorously. Pedestrians have already come in, crowded, and shoulder to shoulder.

  But the streets are busy but not chaotic, noisy but not hustle and bustle, there are many pedestrians but not crowded, and the order is in order.

  Not all the lanterns here are bought with silver. There are also lantern riddles or poems as gifts.

  Gu Jiao likes lively.

  There is a very novel feeling when I look at it, like a child seeing a toy.

  Although she is essentially a very quiet person.

   "My son, buy a lantern!"

Next to   , an old lady said kindly to Gu Jiao who was passing by.

  Gu Jiao stopped, looked at the lantern handed by the old lady, and blinked curiously.

good looking.

   Seeing that she liked it, the old lady picked up another one: "This is the new lotus lamp made by my wife, buy it together, it's ten cents cheaper!"

  Lotus lights are also beautiful.

  Gu Jiao's eyes swept away.

  唔, there are also peach lanterns, and peach lanterns are also beautiful!

   Mu Qingchen gave her a weird look: "Aren't you going to buy a lamp?"

  What lantern does a big man buy? Just shopping around.

  Buying is also a gift to a beautiful woman. Where is a man staring at him?

   "Oh." Gu Jiao sighed and touched the peach lantern in front of him. The artificial design cannot collapse, the lantern can not be bought, especially the pink and tender lantern.

  She reluctantly put the lantern back.

Suddenly, a slender jade-like hand came over, and a silver naked child was clamped by the jade-like fingertips and placed on the stall. Then, a clean and low voice sounded slowly on the side of Gu Jiao: "This peach lantern, I want it."

  Gu Jiao turned her head around.

  The other party wore a silver mask, covering most of the face, only showing soft lips, delicate chin, and deep eyes.

  The night breeze was blowing, blowing from his side, and the familiar aura from his body enveloped Gu Jiao faintly.

  Gu Jiao stared blankly.

Mu Qingchen watched Gu Jiao's reaction in full, his eyebrows frowned unconsciously, he looked at the young man who appeared suddenly, and was about to call Gu Jiao to leave. At this moment, the old man selling lamps will make a new job. A few of the lanterns hung up, but he couldn't stand firm and fluttered towards the stall, and the lantern in his hand flew out.

Seeing that Gu Jiao was about to be hit, Mu Qingchen hurriedly stretched out his hand to block the lantern.

  Almost the same moment he shot, the young man also raised his hand to block the lantern. The difference was that his other hand held Gu Jiao in his arms.

   But Gu Jiao didn't even resist, so she threw herself into his arms.

  Is it an illusion or something else? Her little head still rubbed against the opponent's chest.

   "Are you okay?"

  Mu Qingchen heard the other party ask softly.

   "It's okay."

  He heard Gu Jiao answer softly.

   is not a cold or uninhibited tone on weekdays, but a feeling he can't say.

  Just one click, and the two separated.

  "Thank you, son, for helping me." Gu Jiao said politely.

  Xiao Heng picked up the peach lantern in his hand and said politely: "With a little effort, my little brother and I hit it off right away, and this lantern will be given to the little brother."

   "It is better to be respectful than fate." Gu Jiao took the lantern, "I will give you one too!"

  Xiao Heng smiled and nodded: "Okay."

  Gu Jiao bought a pink and tender lotus lamp, which she also likes: "Here!"

  This kind of lantern that women would like, Mu Qingchen would not want it, and he felt that neither would the other party.

  I don’t know that Xiao Heng accepted it without hesitation, and sincerely thanked him: "Thank you, little brother, for the lantern. Both you and I have seen each other and exchanged gifts. It is better to travel together."

   Mu Qingchen: No way.

   "Okay!" Gu Jiao said readily.

  There is a juggling in front of him, and a few people in Muchuan ran to watch the fun.

  Mu Qingchen and the three people walked along the long street unhurriedly.

  Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng each carried a lantern, and they seemed to have a very right feeling.

  It's obviously all men, Mu Qingchen said in his heart.

   "Where is the clearance?" Gu Jiao asked Xiao Heng with her eyes.

  Xiao Heng whispered: "I was called by the master to make up the lesson."

   Mu Qingchen said, "Your Excellency is from Shengdu?"

  Xiao Heng's language talent is at full level, and Shengdu's accent is more slippery than the locals.

   "Yes." Xiao Heng said.

   Mu Qingchen said again: "I don't know your surname."

  Xiao Heng said: "Long Yi."

   Mu Qingchen: What is this name?

  Xiao Heng ignored Mu Qingchen's weirdness and turned to ask Gu Jiao: "Is it hungry? The dumplings over there are very good."

   "Hungry!" Gu Jiao said.

  The three of them went to the bean curd stall, found an empty table and sat down, Mu Qingchen and Xiao Heng face to face.

   "I'm not hungry, you guys eat." Mu Qingchen said, Mu's daughter can't eat from the roadside stall.

  Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng each ordered a bowl of dumplings stuffed with cabbage.

   Then something strange happened again.

  Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng stretched out their hands to get the spices on the table at the same time. Gu Jiao took the vinegar and Xiao Heng took the spicy oil, but Gu Jiao put the vinegar in front of Xiao Heng, and Xiao Heng put the spicy oil by Gu Jiao's hand.

   Mu Qingchen: "..."
