The autumn scenery is bleak, and the golden fallen leaves are spread all over the mansion of the General Protecting the Nation.
Long Rui sat alone in the garden, the tea on the stone table beside her was completely cold, her fingers caressed a ring on her finger.
Xu Yang tested the competition ring, for this ring, Long Rui almost tried his best.
She, Long Rui, wants to shut up those villains who poke at the back of the General's Mansion.
If it had been half a year ago, no one would have believed that the General's Mansion, which used to be so beautiful in the past, would have been reduced to what it is today. It was so desolate that even the best ring in the world's Xuyang test could not be obtained. Long Rui had no choice but to participate. Only after the additional knockout rounds did he obtain this precious competition ring.
Since Long Jiuzun's death, Long Ao has only appeared once, and there has been no news since then. It is rumored that Long Ao failed to advance and died in Sixiang City.
Princess Longxue was also lukewarm towards the General's Mansion, those people who originally relied on the General's Mansion saw that the general's mansion was gone, they all showed despicable faces and turned to others.
From being supported by everyone in the heyday to being deserted today, everything is like a ghost of an old dream, which is still in sight. This is undoubtedly a huge blow to Long Rui.
"Miss, Little Duke Yue is asking to see you outside the mansion," the maid reminded her.
After the maid finished speaking, she carefully looked at her young lady.
Long Rui couldn't help tightening her fingers when she heard the name that she both loved and hated.
He still came, Long Rui was not surprised, when she signed up for the selection of the Imperial Capital Xuyang Examination, she had already expected that Yue Minzhi would definitely intervene.
So she deliberately kept it from Yue Minzhi, and begged Xiao Jinnuo to help secretly, until the list of contestants was handed over to Princess Longxue, even if Yue Minzhi objected, it was already too late.
"Invite him to come in. Nowadays, there is no one in the imperial capital who would dare to neglect the people of Yuefu," Long Rui said with a bit of sourness.
The situation of the Duke's Mansion and the General's Mansion is completely different.
A double master, in just half a year, the Xueying Duke's Mansion dazzled the eyes of the entire imperial capital just like the blood cherry blossoms in spring.
Yue Minzhi, a double-dragon knight rarely seen in the empire for hundreds of years, is one of Princess Longxue's most admired right-hand men, and Bloomberg. Jin Nuo is also known as the Empire Double Show.
His younger sister, Yue Jinghua, was awarded the title of lifetime knight, and she is also the captain of the empire's first mercenary squad.
The two brothers and sisters can be said to have been favored for a while, but in comparison, the General's Mansion is like a dusty pearl, bleak and dull.
This can't help but make Long Rui's heart sour, and his words become sharp.
Behind him, there was a fine rustling sound of feet stepping on fallen leaves.
Long Rui's heartbeat couldn't help but beat a little faster. Her love for Yue Minzhi has penetrated deep into her blood. Even if she doesn't look back or look into his eyes, she can still feel that inside her body, in her blood vessels, between her viscera, That kind of throbbing that was almost like an electric shock.
This feeling became even stronger after the "artificial respiration" incident occurred between the two.
"What are you here for? To see the jokes about the General's Mansion?" Long Rui's words were a little annoyed.
"The General's Mansion has experienced it, and the Blood Cherry Duke's Mansion has experienced it. How can we tell a joke?" A good man of the empire who stands up to heaven and earth.
He sighed softly.
"You shouldn't take part in the Xuyang test this time," Yue Minzhi stared at the girl under the setting sun.
These days, in order to prepare for the Xuyang test, he has not seen Long Rui.
She seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and her waist was already too thin to hold.
Long Rui suddenly turned around, her brows were full of anger, she clenched her lips, and stared at Yue Minzhi, "Why shouldn't I participate? Don't I, Long Rui, deserve to participate in the Xuyang Examination, Yue Minzhi, don't you You are too arrogant, you are a dragon knight, and I am also a dragon knight, I am not inferior to you, and you are not necessarily better than me."
Even with the setting sun behind his back, Yue Minzhi could still see clearly the face of the girl whom he had not seen for several months.
Sure enough, she lost a lot of weight, her originally round cheeks had become thinner, and her beautiful eyes were full of anger and unwillingness.
This not only did not reduce her beauty, but added a special sense of beauty to Long Rui.
"Rui'er, I didn't mean that, I mean...it's too dangerous," Yue Minzhi was not as eloquent as Yue Jinghua, under Long Rui's gaze, he felt his tongue was as stiff as a stone, and suddenly After a few pauses, he finally expressed his true thoughts.
Too dangerous? Is he worried about himself
Long Rui's eyes turned red, since grandpa left, it has been a long time since no one cared about her.
Her parents died early, and the relatives of the General's Mansion spoke sarcastically to her because of her marriage.
How long has no one cared about her basic necessities of life, worried about her safety.
"This time the Sunshine Trial has the largest number of participants over the years, and I believe it is also the most competitive. According to the practice of previous years, the Sunshine Trial will choose a dangerous place as the competition location. In the past six months, the venue of the competition was announced, but this time, it is an exception. Up to now, the competition party has not announced the venue of the competition." The Canglong Continent is the continent where the human race is most active. all over the continent.
But even so, there are still many places on the mainland that the human race has never explored.
Those places are often regarded as forbidden places.
The early Sunrise Exams were held in those forbidden places.
"I don't need you to worry. With Lake King Dragon here, I can protect myself. Besides, what right do you have to care about me?" Long Rui said sweetly in her heart, but she still had a young lady's temper on her mouth.
As soon as she said it, she regretted it.
Yue Minzhi is not a person of that kind of power, as he said, he has experienced all the things and warmth of the general's mansion when he was young.
But the words have been uttered, as if flooded with water, Long Rui secretly scolded himself for not having a brain, but at the same time blamed Yue Minzhi for being a piece of wood, if he hadn't been going to participate in the Xuyang Exam, how could she have followed him all the way.
"I proposed to your grandfather," Yue Minzhi thought about it, and finally decided to tell Long Rui what happened.
"You!" Long Rui's eyes widened, and now she stuttered, "Who, who allows, allows you, please. You, you don't want me, okay?"
After she finished speaking, she blushed and stomped on the ground for a while, trampling the leaves in a mess.
"Your grandfather didn't agree. He said, 'Unless I get the top three in the Xuyang test, I won't betroth you to me,'" Yue Minzhi scratched his head in embarrassment.
"You are stupid, you agree to such harsh conditions, Grandpa is too confused," Long Rui said anxiously.
Yue Minzhi watched from the side, his face gradually calmed down, he walked forward, hesitated for a while, finally raised his hand, and hugged Long Rui tenderly, his voice was low and in Long Rui's ear Side echoed: "You are worth my risk."
Long Rui's body trembled slightly, her yearning for many years came true at this moment, she only felt a roar in her head, and her whole body was submerged in the tide of joy.
Tears dripped down on the ring, and at this moment, the competition rings on the two fingers lit up.
