Zhang Gu twirled his beard and said: "According to the reports from Qunying Pavilion spies, Ye Han led the two thousand soldiers of the war camp to have already arrived at Huxiao City, which is the closest to Yangnan. Huxiao City is only a few dozen miles away from Yangnan.

It's only half a day's journey, but Ye Han hasn't made any move since he arrived at Tiger Roar City. I'm thinking..."

Li Luo glanced at Zhang Gu and said, "What are you thinking about?"

Zhang Guying said: "In the battle of Dongfeng City that shocked the world, Li Gan died. Although the leader that time was Sun Yixiao, one of the six famous generals, as far as I know, Ye Han also acted in this battle.

It has played a decisive role."

"Under Ye Han, there was a team named Youying. Each of them had superb martial arts skills and were good at assassination. In that battle, Youying was the first to enter Dongfeng City and killed the soldiers guarding the city.

Opened the city gate."

"This time, Ye Han was originally ordered to take over Sun Wei. After Sun Wei died, Ye Han's mission was actually over. However, Ye Han did not return to the court with his troops, but went straight to Yangnan."

"In my opinion, this person is not a good person. I am worried that Ye Han will repeat his old tricks and send shadows to deal with you, the prince."

Xiao Chen leaned back on the recliner and said with some uncertainty: "The mastermind behind Sun Nuo's murder is Bai Qi. Besides, we are well-known teachers. He can't attack me before Emperor Qian gives the order, right?"

Zhang Gu shook his head and said: "Obviously he doesn't dare, but if Youying takes action, he will not admit it at all. Just like the great scholars who died outside the post house before, they were nominally killed by the bandits, but

What about reality?"

Xiao Chen took a breath of cold air. If according to Zhang Gu's statement, Ye Han had stayed in Huxiao City for so long, and he might have already sent the shadow into Yangnan City. Maybe even outside the post house at this time,

There are countless pairs of eyes watching every move of his.

Xiao Chen didn't want to die, so he hurriedly asked: "Grandpa Zhang, if the shadow is really coming, can our Qunying Pavilion guards stop those assassins?"

Zhang Gu shook his head and said: "The shadow is extremely mysterious. It took me several twists and turns to find out about the existence of this team. As for how strong the people in the shadow are, I don't know."

"But what I can confirm is that the masters outside the Great Wall who kill horses and swordsmen belong to the shadow."

Xiao Chen, who knew nothing about martial arts, asked: "Is this stream very strong?"

Zhang Gu nodded and said: "It's very strong. Xiang Liu has lived outside the Great Wall since he was a child. He has killed many heroes with his horse-killing knife. Later, for some unknown reason, Xiang Liu joined the Shadow.

.”

"I only know that when Xiang Liu joined the shadow, his strength had already reached the realm of true self. Five years have passed in the blink of an eye. With Xiang Liu's qualifications, I am afraid that he has at least stepped into the realm of Yihua. It can be said that,

Among the people who traveled to Qunying Pavilion this time, except for me, no one is Xiang Liu’s opponent."

Xiao Chen couldn't help but open his mouth. Xiang Liu alone was so powerful. Who knows if there was Liu Liu or Zhang Liu in that shadow?

"Grandpa Zhang, otherwise, let's go back to Yong'an. It seems like Yangnan can't stay here any longer." Xiao Chen rubbed his hands and said.

Zhang Gu rolled his eyes at Xiao Chen and said, "It's too late. I just want to get up and leave now. What were you doing before?"

Xiao Chen smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm tired from the journey and want to take a rest in Yangnancheng."

With a slight snort, Zhang Gu shook his head in disbelief and said, "Don't lie to me. Although I didn't grow up watching you, I know you are not an ordinary playboy after getting to know you over this period of time.

I believe you have your reasons for staying in Yangnan. I don’t want to ask, and you don’t have to tell me. But what I have to tell you is that if Youying really takes action, then staying in the post house at this time would be more harmful.

It’s the safest option.”

"To act rashly without authorization will make it easier for Shadow to take action."

Xiao Chen nodded extremely seriously. Xiao Chen still had great trust in Zhang Gu regarding these matters in the world.

It's just that it's not a problem for me to hide in the post house all the time. If I say it out, wouldn't it be a coward?

He had to find a way, Xiao Chen looked thoughtful and depressed. Never for a moment had Xiao Chen so wished that there would be more omnipotent martial arts masters around him.

Counting over and over again, I found that Xue Wuwei and Zhang Gu were both capable, but Zhang Gu was old and Xue Wuwei was the commander of the Black Armored Army, so it was very inconvenient to mobilize them.

There is still Ouyang Xu, but after all, this Ouyang Xu is not his. After all, he has no one to use.

Zhang Gu took a deep look at Xiao Chen, who had a solemn face. Although he knew Xiao Chen's troubles, he had no good solution at the moment. He could only cup his hands and comfort him: "Your Majesty, the matter has come to an end. Please relax, Your Majesty.

I will definitely throw a group of heroes and the guards of the pavilion will swear to protect the safety of the prince."

Nodding, Xiao Chen looked at Zhang Gu with a concerned look and said: "Grandpa Zhang, I have been lucky to you during this time. You should go back and rest first. As for how to deal with Youying, let me think about it again."

Zhang Gu responded and slowly stepped back.

In the small courtyard, Xiao Chen was alone and unhappy. Li Luo, the king of Huainan, had blood guards under his command, who looked like magic soldiers on the battlefield. Ye Han, the Marquis of Anping in Guizhou, had shadows under his command, killing people in the dark night.

What about yourself? There is a huge group of heroes, but no one can defeat it.

The most critical point is that the heroes who were originally supposed to fight in the arena have been polished off by the gentle and gentle countryside of Yong'an Palace, and it is difficult to pick out a strong person who can stand alone.

They are like a group of domesticated hunting dogs. They usually have no problem catching chickens and rabbits, but when they are really facing a fierce tiger.

Even if he could kill it with a numerical advantage, he would definitely suffer heavy losses. Fortunately, his honest and honest father had left him such a small foundation after working hard for most of his life. Xiao Chen didn't want to kill it all in one go.

This is not a situation he wants to see.

"Master...where the hell can I find a master?" Xiao Chen muttered to himself.

It's a pity that he knows almost nothing about Jianghu affairs, and he couldn't come up with a result even after thinking about it.

But Xiao Chen's ability to adjust his mentality is second to none. If you can't think of it, then just don't think about it. Wouldn't it be better to go and have fun with those pretty girls?

Just do it, Xiao Chen got up and left the hospital, and went straight to the courtyard of the three girls.

Pushing the door open, the courtyard of the three women was empty. Only Du Yingying was dancing in the garden holding a long sword.

Xiao Chen's voice was not loud, and Du Yingying didn't seem to notice, so she continued to wave the long sword in her hand.

When holding a sword, Du Yingying has a different kind of grace. If we say that Du Yingying in normal times is like a rose with thorns, then when dancing with a sword, Du Yingying is like a snowy plum blooming in the cold winter. That touch of free and easy style

, what can ordinary women possess?

Xiao Chen leaned against the entrance of the courtyard and couldn't bear to interrupt this picturesque scene.

Xiao Chen has seen many people's swordsmanship, such as Wuchenzi's aloofness, Xue Wuwei's bravery, and Ouyang Xu's fierceness.

When it comes to martial arts attainments, this Du Nuxia, who has just entered the martial arts world, is naturally not considered brilliant, but just the word "beautiful" has already surpassed the world's heroes in Xiao Chen's eyes.

The sword light in the courtyard was like water. Xiao Chen was a little crazy for a moment and couldn't help but praise: "How can this sword not break the waist of the world's heroes?"

Xiao Chen's voice finally caught Du Yingying's attention. She put away her long sword. Du Yingying's beautiful, picturesque eyes gave Xiao Chen a hard look and said, "You are a prince after all, why can't you change your habit of peeking?

"

Xiao Chen rubbed his hands shamelessly and said: "I am obviously standing at the door and watching openly, why do you call me a peeper?"

Ignoring Xiao Chen's glib words, Du Yingying walked to the table, sat down and poured two cups of tea. She picked up a cup and took a satisfied sip. Then she looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Would you like some tea?"

Seeing Du Nuxia, who had always refused him thousands of miles away, inviting him to drink tea, Xiao Chen nodded hurriedly and said: "Drink, you must drink it, even if it is poisonous tea, I will be willing to die."

"It's not formal." Du Yingying muttered, but she couldn't help but have a shy smile on her lips.

The contact during this period of time greatly changed Du Yingying's impression of Xiao Chen. From the former playboy who did not do his job, to the current prince full of sadness and helplessness, and Xiao Chen was indeed very good to her, Du Yingying was also thinking about it.

I wonder if I want to settle the feud with Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen didn't know what Du Nuxia was thinking. He only knew that Du Nuxia treated him to a rare cup of tea, which was more fragrant than the most beautiful wine in the world.

He picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp. At this time, Xiao Chen had long forgotten the tea tasting method that Ji Wushuang taught him.

The tea was good in nature, not to mention that it also had a faint fragrance unique to women, which made Xiao Chen reluctant to leave.

Looking at the intoxicated Xiao Chen, Du Yingying wanted to laugh a little. She originally wanted to ask Xiao Chen if he had dealt with those troublesome things, but when the words came to his lips, after several hesitations, it turned into a cold inquiry.

"Are you here to see Sister Diexiang or Sun Simiao? They are both taking a nap."

After finally seeing Du Yingying's attitude change, Xiao Chen quickly waved his hand and said, "I'm just here to find you."

"Looking for me?" Du Yingying looked at Xiao Chen with disbelief, as if she wanted to see the truth in Xiao Chen's eyes.

Feeling Du Yingying's appraising gaze, Xiao Chen quickly straightened his spine and looked at Du Yingying seriously, fearing that he would reveal any flaws.

After looking at it for a moment, Du Yingying couldn't see any sign of Xiao Chen lying. She felt even happier, but she still said reluctantly: "What do you want from me? I don't know how to say nice things, and I won't help you either."

Is it possible that Prince Xiao is not happy to come here to solve problems?"

The corner of Xiao Chen's mouth twitched, and his mind was running wildly. He originally said it casually, but he really wanted to find a reason, but he couldn't think of any.

Suddenly, Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows as if he thought of something, and a look of indifference appeared on his face...
