At the end of the year, the capital finally emerged from the haze of the disaster, and the prosperity of the past was gradually restored both inside and outside the city.

New Year's Eve, New Year's Eve.

Daqian has a rule of keeping the year old, so after dinner, Zhao Yu took Erha and Jiang Yuyan to keep the year old together.

These days, there are no gala parties or other entertainment projects, so staying up late has become a very boring thing.

The cold wind was raging outside, and the charcoal fire inside the house was red.

People who have had enough to eat and drink are most likely to feel sleepy in this environment.

Fortunately, Zhao Yu had the foresight to make a pair of poker cards with sticky rice paper and teach Erha and Jiang Yuyan to fight the landlord together.

Of course, this Doudizhu statement needs to be slightly modified.

Otherwise, if the few maids who were inserted around him heard about it, they would have to accuse Zhao Yu of treason!

"One to two!!"

Zhao Yu held the only remaining card in his hand and stared happily at Jiang Yuyan, who was frowning slightly across from him.

Although he was a novice at this thing in his previous life, he was more than capable of dealing with these two novices in front of him!

Jiang Yuyan looked at the cards in her hand and then shook her head.

"I explode?!"

Just when Zhao Yu wanted to throw away the last card in his hand and win the victory, Erha on the side came directly with a divine assist!

"We are in a group, why are you blowing me up? What's wrong with me?!"

Zhao Yu widened his eyes and stared at the four 2s thrown by Erha, his head buzzing with anger!

"..."

Erha took the shot and looked at Zhao Yu, who was blushing and thick-necked, feeling a little at a loss for a moment.

Boom!

Just when a few people were having fun, Lianxing, who was waiting outside, suddenly fell to the ground limply.

Erha, who was still looking embarrassed at first, suddenly changed his color, then moved his nose slightly, stood up suddenly and said: "Toxic..."

Before he could finish his words, he fell directly to the ground as he stood up.

As Er Ha finished speaking, the surrounding maids and Yao Yue all fell to the ground.

Jiang Yuyan clasped her hands back, holding her palms at her Dantian, and then started to activate her internal energy. After a moment, she nodded vaguely to Zhao Yu, then pretended to be poisoned and fell to the ground.

Zhao Yu also calmly circulated his inner energy, but his body slowly fell down.

At the same time, outside the house, in the cold wind and light snow, a slim figure came holding an umbrella.

The visitor walked outside the room where Zhao Yu and the others were staying, gently stretched out his hand, and opened the door of the room in front of him.

The man closed his umbrella and walked slowly into the room. Only then could he clearly see that the person who came was a young woman with a veiled face.

The woman walked into the room, looked around, and walked straight towards Zhao Yu who was lying in the middle of the inner hall.

"haven't seen you for a long time……"

The woman looked at the unconscious Zhao Yu, murmured softly, then took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms, and reached out to put it towards Zhao Yu's face.

Whoosh!

At this moment, the woman's whole body was shaken and she slowly fell down.

Jiang Yuyan, who had a frosty face behind her, slowly stood up and stared at the uninvited guest in front of her.

"You weren't poisoned?"

The woman looked at Jiang Yuyan who appeared in front of her with some surprise. Her sad breeze was brought by her master from Xixia.

Not to mention ordinary martial arts warriors, even top-level masters with strong inner strength cannot resist it.

When she first met Jiang Yuyan, she was just a weak woman similar to herself, but in just a few months, she was no longer afraid of this strange poison!

Thinking of this, the woman looked at Zhao Yu, who was lying on the ground and staring at her.

Jiang Yuyan stepped forward and ripped off the woman's veil!

"It's you?!"

Jiang Yuyan was also surprised. She didn't expect that the person who poisoned them on New Year's Eve was an acquaintance!

"Yuyan, unlock her acupuncture points!"

Zhao Yu stood up, pulled up a chair, sat directly opposite the woman, looked at her condescendingly and said to Jiang Yuyan.

Not to mention, if you look at it from another position, your vision and mentality are really different!

Zhao Yu spoke, and even though Jiang Yuyan didn't like the woman in front of her anymore, she still reached out and brushed her back and untied her acupuncture points.

"Miss Miaoxuan, are you okay?"

Zhao Yu looked at the current Miao Xuan with a smile, and then said again without waiting for her to speak: "Or, should I call you...Hokusai now?"

Since entering the mansion, the woman's expression had not changed at all even when she was restrained by Jiang Yuyan. After hearing Zhao Yu's words, her expression changed drastically.

"You...how did you know my current name?"

This name was given to her by that person after she met him.

Logically speaking, other than that person, no one else could know that she had changed her name to Hokusai.

"Haha, is there anything in this world that Jin Yiwei doesn't know about?"

Zhao Yu sneered, and then said: "Tell me, why are you here late at night?"

"My master wants to see you!"

Hokusai stood up, put on his veil again, and said to Zhao Yu in a calm tone.

"Now?!"

Zhao Yu was shocked, he naturally knew who the master Beizhai mentioned was.

"Yes, and only now will my master take the risk of inviting you for a chat..."

Hokusai nodded naturally.

Zhao Yu thought about it for a moment, and realized that it was just like Hokusai said, that there was no more appropriate time than today to meet him.

"Then they..."

Zhao Yu pointed at Erha and others who fell asleep on the ground and frowned slightly.

"You must not let others know about your meeting with the master. When you come back, I will naturally give you the antidote!"

After Hokusai finished speaking, he walked towards the door first.

Jiang Yuyan moved and stood directly in front of Beizhai.

In Jiang Yuyan's view, as long as Zhao Yu doesn't say anything, no one can even think of leaving the room!

"I'll come back as soon as I go, you guard them."

Zhao Yu waved his hand to Jiang Yuyan and said softly.

Since Hokusai has already come to visit, there is nothing wrong with meeting the future Emperor Daqian.

"Son..."

Jiang Yuyan wanted to stop him, but didn't know what to say.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen!"

Zhao Yu stepped forward with a smile, reached out and pinched Jiang Yuyan's handsome face.

Although Jiang Yuyan now obeys her words, this kind of intimate behavior is something Zhao Yu only dared to do recently.

"Um."

Jiang Yuyan's cheeks blushed slightly when she faced Zhao Yu's intimate gestures, and then she turned around and looked at Beizhai from head to toe with cold eyes.

Although he didn't say a harsh word, even Hokusai felt that under this woman's gaze, a cold air rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

"Let's go!"

Zhao Yu stepped out of the room in one step, followed closely by Hokusai.

What is supposed to come will definitely come.
Chapter completed!
