Genius Demon Empress

"What a great Lord Long Jiu. He dares to speak nonsense. He wants my Yue family to be slaves and maids, and he is not afraid of killing him." In the garden of the Duke's Palace, Yue Jinghua's voice was cold and threatening. Deyue Minzhi couldn't help but look sideways.

In the Dragon War Empire, names are given by parents and cannot be changed easily.

There are two situations where the surname can be changed. When a woman marries, she will take her husband's surname. When one is entered as a slave, one also has to change his name and adopt the master's surname.

Long Jiuzun allowed Yue Minzhi to enter the palace of the general who protected the country, and changed his surname and owner. Such behavior was a great shame and humiliation for the Duke's palace.

At this time, the shadows in the garden were slanting, and the moonlight reflected Yue Jinghua's face, and the murderous aura was clearly evident.

There is only one man left in the Duke's Palace, Yue Min. If he is greedy for wealth and honor and really marries into the General's Palace, he will undoubtedly be the queen of the Duke's Palace.

"Now you should understand why you are requesting to break off the engagement for the Brotherhood. My personal marriage is a big deal, but the glory of the Duke's Palace is a big deal. I want to prove to Long Jiuzun that even without the Protector General's Palace, I He can also become a dragon knight." Yue Min was still at a young age, so Long Jiuzun's words undoubtedly touched him greatly.

"Brother, I don't object to you becoming an outstanding dragon knight with your own strength, but you shouldn't implicate the innocent Long Rui because of Long Jiuzun's one-sided words. Dad said that a good man should learn to stand upright. But I I think that a real man should first learn to face his true heart. Although the public's opinions may be shining brightly, when a man is born and is loved, he should have the courage to face thousands of people with cold eyebrows." Yue Jinghua said every word. said.

The deep and powerful voice was like a sharp blade piercing into Yue Minzhi's heart.

His originally agitated mood was extinguished instantly as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him.

Yue Jinghua patted Yue Minzhi on the shoulder, "No matter what decision you make in the end, my mother and I will stand by your side."

"It's too late," Yue Minzhi paused, with a gloomy expression, "I have already told Long Rui my feelings, 'I have never had any love for her.' Right now, I'm just afraid that the house of General Protector is already in a mess. "

Yue Jinghua's eyes narrowed, and after a long while, he sighed faintly, "Brother, this time, you are wrong."

Yue Minzhi rubbed the center of his eyebrows helplessly and smiled forcefully: "Hua'er, why do you think that things have changed since you came back from Shang Kingdom? I remember you said earlier that you don't like Long Rui. , Her temperament is too arrogant."

Yue Jinghua's eyelids twitched and she laughed a few times.

"Brother, I was young and ignorant at that time, and I couldn't speak a lot. When it comes to arrogance, I would take second place, and no one would dare to take first place. It doesn't matter if I like it or not, as long as you like it, that's it."

Yue Minzhi hesitated, "Hua'er, actually, the eldest brother doesn't want to get married. The eldest brother has already made a plan. If he passes the Dragon Trial this time, he will join the Dragon Riders, make contributions to the empire, and reorganize the Duke's Palace. . But if I fail the dragon-slaying test, eldest brother, then I will leave the imperial capital and go find my father’s whereabouts.”

"Brother, you will definitely pass the dragon-slaying test. Besides, Uncle Hong has been looking for daddy all these years, but there has been no news about him. The world is so big, where can you go to find him," Yue Jinghua He shook his head and did not agree with Yue Minzhi's idea.

"Wait until this dragon-pulling attempt is over before we make any plans. It's already late at night, so you should go back to your room to rest early. The house is still grateful to you for now," Yue Min persuaded as he saw that he was more serious. Yue Jinghua went to rest first.

After watching Yue Jinghua leave, Yue Minzhi took out a piece of animal skin paper from his arms, and saw a few words written with cinnabar on the paper: "Zhulong Heart Sutra."

Fumbling with the piece of animal skin paper, Yue Minzhi's eyes became sharper.

A certain wealthy family in the Ottawa Imperial City, the entire courtyard was shrouded in darkness, and the courtyard was deep.

Many servants from the General Protector's Mansion, as well as several elders from the Long family, all gathered outside a boudoir.

This evening, Long Ruirui had been locked in her room since she came back from the Dragon Rider Preparatory Camp.

Her personal maid was also kicked out, and from time to time a burst of sobs could be heard from the closed door.

"What did the young lady say? Break off the engagement, she doesn't want to live anymore," the personal maid had to tell the truth about Long Rui being behind closed doors in front of everyone in the general's mansion.

"What? That boy Yue Minzhi was so cowardly that he dared to say that he wanted to break off the engagement." The palace of the General Protector of the Country is a typical example of Yang rising and Yin declining.

Among Long Rui's generation, only Long Rui is a woman, and the children from the other houses are all men.

In addition, Long Rui had been cute and sweet-mouthed since she was a child, so she was loved by the elders of the other houses. Now that they heard that their precious niece had been annulled, the elders all rolled up their sleeves and prepared to go to the Duke's Mansion. Drag out Yue Minzhi and chop him into pieces.

"Isn't it true? From a family as low-down as the Duke's Palace, if Rui'er hadn't fallen in love with the boy, she would have broken off the engagement eight lifetimes ago," the female relatives said to each other.

Only Long Jiuzun, who was standing behind the crowd, did not say a word.

He was right. After hearing what he said, Yue Minzhi couldn't help but proposed to Long Ruixian to break off the engagement.

Hearing the commotion outside and the threats from the elders about beating or killing, Long Rui opened the door with a "squeak".

The eldest lady's eyes were red and swollen, and she shouted to everyone: "No one is allowed to go to Yue Minzhi. I will worry about whoever goes to find him."

After saying that, he slammed the door shut.

Everyone was speechless for a moment.

Then the door creaked open again, and it was Long Rui again.

"No one is allowed to tell grandpa what happened today, otherwise, I will drag him (her) out and chop him or her into pieces." After saying that, she stamped her feet and closed the door again.

"Everyone should leave now. Don't go against Rui'er's wishes for now, lest it affect her performance in the dragon-pulling test. I'll write a letter to grandpa later to see what he decides." Long Jiu Zun waved his hand. He was a young genius. Although he was a junior in the Long family, he was quite prestigious.

After he spoke, everyone left quickly.

After everyone left, the crying in Long Rui's room gradually became quieter. Long Jiuzun said to himself: "If grandpa knew that people from the Duke's Palace dared to regret their marriage, I'm afraid he would rush back immediately and kill him with his own hands. It’s Yue Minzhi. Poor Rui’er, it’s better if you don’t get married. If you do, I’m afraid you’ll be a widow at such a young age.”

After saying that, Long Jiuzun turned around and blended into the darkness.

In the house, after Long Rui was tired from crying, she lay on the bed and stared at the dark roof, lost in thought.

Recalling the time he spent with Yue Minzhi these days, a line of tears fell from the corner of Long Rui's eyes.

She murmured, "Yue Minzhi, if you don't love me, why did you risk your life to save me that day?"
