Lan Xun's face changed continuously, "Ruyi, can't you calm down and think carefully? I have been waiting for you for two years, just hoping that you can become calmer, but you are still so paranoid. How are you being nice to yourself? Why can’t you be more rational? The Ruyi I knew before was not like this. Ruyi, we grew up together. I haven't told a single lie. I can swear in front of you that what I, Lan Xun, said are all true, otherwise heaven and earth will perish."
Ruyi froze for a moment, but the anger in her eyes did not calm down at all, "Then what do you mean today? No matter how you say it, I have nothing to do with you. You proposed to the Duke today because you deliberately wanted to insult me. ?"
Lan Xun sighed and said, "Ruyi, why would I think that way? In my heart, you have always held a pivotal position, you are my lover! For more than two years, you went to the frontier to perform missions, and I did not I don't think about you for a day, but I proposed to the Duke because I love you! How can you believe that I am sincere to you?"
Ruyi's heart trembled, looking at Lan Xun's handsome and sincere face, the anger on his face gradually subsided, and she looked at him dully, she couldn't believe it, it was just a misunderstanding at the beginning.
Lan Yu said, "That's enough, you two don't talk anymore, I already understand the matter. No matter how you say it, it is Lan Xun's fault to provoke and hurt Ruyi with words. Lan Xun, you have been with me for so many years. I know my temper. Ruyi, you are wronged, don’t worry, I will vent my anger on you. Let’s do it. Ruyi, from now on. I will accept you and Rumeng as my goddaughter. Lan Xun hurt my daughter, You have to pay the due price, Lan Xun, you don't need to explain anything, Ruyi has gone to the frontier for you for more than two years, and suffered so much, now she has no relationship with you, but, your love for her The damage can never be eliminated, I don't want to say anything else, you can end it yourself."
"What?" Three people exclaimed at the same time, one was Ruyi. The other two are Yu Ruyan and Nian Bing. Yu Ruyan said anxiously: "Brother Yu, Lan Xun can't be blamed for this matter. He has been with you for so many years, don't you understand his temperament? How could you decide to punish him so hastily? Brother Yu "
Nian Bing had already walked to Lan Xun's side in a few steps at this time. He was the one who persuaded Lan Xun to propose marriage to Duke Lan Yu. At this time, such a situation occurred, how could he not be in a hurry? "That's right! Lord Duke, even if Lan Xun is wrong, he won't die, right? How can you be so careless about human life?" Duke Lan Yu's hasty decision greatly reduced his impression of the Duke, and even the entire Duke's mansion. At this moment also disappeared.
A layer of ice-cold frost hung on Duke Lanyu's face, and he said calmly: "Ruyan, I can listen to you for other matters, but not this one. Do you think Lan Xun is right? Indeed, this is a misunderstanding , but, as a man, knowing that it was a misunderstanding but not explaining it to Ruyi, what does this mean? It shows that he has the heart to play with Ruyi, and that he puts his dignity more important than Yi. If he can tell Ruyi earlier Explain, be more patient and enlighten Ruyi, has Ruyi been in pain for more than two years? Ruyi is pitiful enough, and now he is hurt like this, how can you let me tolerate it? Nian Bing, we wronged you before, but This is an internal matter of my Duke's mansion, please don't interfere. Lan Xun, do it."
Duke Lan Yu's tone was extremely decisive, but Nian Bing found strangely that there seemed to be a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes, was it his own illusion? No, definitely not hallucinations. He did smile. The brain was spinning rapidly, and in an instant, Nian Bing understood some of the reasons. He glanced at Duke Lanyu, took a step back in a sigh, and stopped stopping.
Lan Xun raised his head to look at Lan Yu, and then at Ruyi, his face became extremely calm, and he said respectfully: "My lord, Lan Xun was raised by you, my life is yours, your order Lan Xun Xun will never resist, I, I only have one last request before I die, I hope you can agree." At this point, he knelt down on the ground, Nian Bing was greatly impressed by the courage of seeing death as home.
Duke Lanyu said indifferently: "Just tell me. Since you have been with me for so many years, I will try my best to help you."
Lan Xun was not frightened by the imminent death, and a gleam of joy appeared on his face when he heard Duke Lan Yu's promise, "My lord, I really love Ruyi. You are right, it is because I can't let go of my face." The pain that has caused Ruyi for more than two years has left her with an unforgettable shadow. Everything is my fault and I should be punished. My last request is to ask you to take good care of Ruyi and find a new one for her in the future. A good husband, who cares about her and loves her so much, I can rest in peace even if I am underground. Your Excellency, Madam, take care of yourself, Lan Xun is gone, even if I am in hell, I will definitely do it for the Duke Da Cong and Madam pray for safety." With a flash of cold light, the sword came out of its sheath, and Lan Xun didn't even hesitate in his movements. He held the hilt of the sword with both hands, and almost brought it towards his neck with all his strength. Under the light, the long sword shone with a dazzling cold light. Although Lan Xun didn't boost his fighting spirit, everyone could see that he had a strong will to die.
Yu Ruyan closed her eyes, tears flowed down her face, usually Lan Yu listened to him in every way, but if Lan Yu got serious, Yu Ruyan would not object, Lan Xun was the one who watched her Having grown up, she couldn't bear to die like this at this moment, so she raised her right hand quietly, wanting to use her fighting spirit to save her. For her, there is not much difference between opening and closing eyes. However, just when she raised her hand, it was already held by Duke Lanyu's powerful left and right hands. Yu Ruyan struggled slightly, but she immediately gave up struggling, because she knew that time was running out. There was a sudden throbbing in my heart, and the secret passage was over.
"Don't." A tender voice sounded, and Yu Ruyan opened her eyes suddenly, only to see Ruyi holding Lan Xun's hand tightly with both hands, her eyes filled with sadness, "Don't! Don't die."
Lan Xun said dejectedly: "Ruyi. Why are you doing this? You should understand that for us, every word of the Duke's servant is an order. Don't stop me, promise me, and live well."
Ruyi ignores Lan Xun. While holding his hand tightly with all his strength, he turned his head to Duke Lan Yu and said, "Master Duke, oh. No, foster father, please let Lan Xun go."
Lan Yu said coldly: "Ruyi, he hurt you so deeply, why did he let you go, you are my daughter, no one can bully you. You run away. The adoptive father will definitely find you a good husband in the future .”
Ruyi shook her head vigorously, tears scattered in the shaking, "No, no, foster father, I don't want anyone else, I only want Lan Xun, please let him go. He is the only person I love in this life."
A smile flashed again in Lan Yu's eyes, but neither the excited Ruyi nor the depressed Lan Xun who was about to commit suicide didn't notice, "Ruyi, don't you love him anymore? Just now you said you would never marry him You also know that military orders are like a mountain, and I have already issued an order, which cannot be taken back easily."
Ruyi knelt down beside Lan Yu and cried, "Father, what I said just now was out of anger. In fact, I have always loved Lan Xun. I have already figured it out. In fact, all of this is my fault. I blame me for being too extreme. If it wasn't because of my jealousy and persecuting Lan Xun because of my nagging, he wouldn't have said such angry words. Lan Xun was not at fault, it was me. Father, if you want to punish me, please punish me. Please. You, don't kill Lan Xun, he is a good man, he is so loyal to you, even if he doesn't have any credit, he still has some hard work, please."
Lan Yu sighed and said: "However, the order has been issued, but it cannot be changed easily. Well, all the rules are not dead. If you are willing to marry him, for the sake of him becoming my son-in-law, I will accept it." Spare his life, otherwise, he has no reason to live on. Ruyi, are you willing to marry Lan Xun?"
"Yes, I am willing. Father, I am willing to marry him, you don't want to kill him." Ruyi blurted out almost without thinking, Lan Xun loosened his grip on the sword, and the long sword fell to the ground with a clang. With a crisp sound, Yu Ruyan looked at her husband in astonishment, but saw Lan Yu laughing loudly, "That's right, it's good to be kind, you children will make me worry. It's all right now, Lan Yu Xun, I will marry my precious daughter Ruyi to you, you must take good care of her in the future, love her, if you dare to bully her again, hum, don't blame me for being rude."
Although Lan Xun is willing to die for the duke, but ants are stealing their lives, let alone human beings. It is of course the best not to die. Besides, being able to reunite with Ruyi at this time makes everything so wonderful, from great sadness to great joy. The feeling made him unbelievable, but his mind was still clear, and he hurriedly took Ruyi's hand and bowed down to Lan Yu.
"Ouch." The majestic duke just now let out a scream, which scared Lan Xun and Ruyi to jump up from the ground at the same time, but what they saw was Yu Ruyan grabbing Lan Yu's ear with one hand, He said with a bad face: "Okay, Lan Yu, you were all acting just now, right? You even lied to me. Tell me, what should you do if you lied to me so much?"
"Take it easy, Ruyan, take it easy. I know I'm wrong, listen to my explanation! If I hadn't acted more truthfully just now, how could I have let Ruyi show her true feelings? Do you think I would be willing to kill Lan Xun? The two of them Although everyone is at fault, Lan Xun is a man after all, so it would be cheaper for him to be wronged for a while and exchanged for a beautiful wife."
It was only then that Lan Xun and Ruyi came to their senses, they looked at each other, their faces turned red at the same time, they knelt down on the ground again, and said respectfully, "Thank you, Lord Duke, for your fulfillment."
Yu Ruyan let go of Lan Yu's hand, and said, "Are you still called Lord Duke? From now on, I will be called adoptive father and foster mother. I am so happy that you two children can get together, so get up." "
Nian Bing, who was standing behind Lan Xun, felt envious in his heart at this moment, how great it would be if he could also marry Feng Nu with the help of his elders! The Duke of Blue Feather deserves to be the number one person in the Imperial Army of Orlando, and his ability to control his subordinates is unrivaled. If I hadn't seen some clues from his eyes, I'm afraid I would have been deceived. His acting skills are really superb!
Ruyi and Lan Xun stood up, and Ruyi broke away from Lan Xun's hand. At this time, the knot in his heart had been untied, and the original coldness in his eyes turned into a pool of warm spring water. He turned to Nian Bing and said, "Mr. Nian, I'm sorry." , last time I was too impulsive and killed you without understanding the matter, please forgive me. In fact, I can see that you are not that kind of person, it's just that you don't want to admit defeat. I'm sorry. "
Nian Bing smiled slightly and said: "Although it feels uncomfortable to be wronged, but the matter is over, let's forget it. Congratulations to Miss Ruyi for marrying Brother Lan Xun. I don't have anything valuable on my body. Make a meal, and you can come and taste it together, which is also my congratulatory gift to you." Using a meal as a congratulatory gift seems a bit too cheap for ordinary people, and no one in the room cared about it. This is regarded as Nian Bing's goodwill, but how do they know that Nian Bing's meal will be worth incomparable in the near future. Not everyone can taste the craftsmanship of Ice Fire Magic Chef.
Yu Ruyan walked to Nian Bing's side, and said apologetically, "Nian Bing, I blamed you wrongly. Auntie is wrong, can you forgive Auntie?"
Nian Bing shook his head, smiled and said: "Auntie, you are not wrong. After all, we have only met twice, if it were me, I would believe my own words. Auntie, are you still willing to give me the Tianhua card?" Is it?" Facing this beautiful aunt, Nian Bing had no intention of blaming her, but at this moment, he was just thinking, what's wrong with the mother blaming the child
"Of course." Yu Ruyan took out the Tianhua card from her arms and put it on Nian Bing's neck again. The Tianhua card carried Yu Ruyan's body temperature and stuck it to her chest warmly, making Nian Bing's body and mind warm. All extremely comfortable. "Auntie, let me cook for you now. It's time for lunch. Please sit at the table for a while. I'll try to hurry up." He said, walking towards the stove.
Yu Ruyan and Lan Yu looked at each other and smiled. They were also curious about what Nian Bing could do if he insisted on cooking for them. The two of them brought Lan Xun and the others to sit at the table set up by the stove. Come down, Ruyi prepared ten chairs earlier, more than enough at this time.
Lan Yu took Yu Ruyan's hand, Lan Xun took Ruyi's hand, and the eyes of the five were all on Nian Bing.
Taking a deep breath, Nian Bing calmed down his mood. At this moment, his heart became extremely calm. With a pull of his right hand, nine cucumbers appeared from the ring of space and lay flat on the chopping board. For today's meal, Nian Bing not only prepared the seasoning, but also prepared the utensils for serving the dishes. A large plate with a diameter of one meter appeared immediately following nine cucumbers. Nian Bing held the plate in his left hand and pointed it with his right , the Aotian Knife like a Wang Qiushui, with the breath of wind, appeared in his grasp, and smiled at the people in front of the stove: "Aunt Yu, I think you are all a little thirsty, my first dish , is the embodiment of ice, and it is also the best ice dish in my Ice and Fire Jiuchongtian Cuisine—Jiuqing Shenlong Bingyunyin."
The Aotian Knife lifted up lightly against the table, and nine cucumbers flew up at the same time under the action of the blade. Nian Bing put a large plate with a diameter of one meter on the table, and the nine cucumbers fell, exactly the same distance apart. On the plate, the cucumbers were less than one foot long, and the nine cucumbers looked a bit out of place on a large plate with a diameter of one meter. Nian Bing picked up a cucumber like lightning, and just about to move the Aotian knife in his right hand, the sound of hurried footsteps interrupted his concentration, and a knight of the Silver Feather Knights ran in quickly.
"Report." The knight knelt down on one knee, diverting the attention of Duke Lan Yu and others just because Nian Bing reported the name of the dish. Lan Yu said: "Say."
"Report to the Duke, four people came outside, claiming to be acquaintances of the madam, please see me."
"Oh?" Lan Yu glanced at Yu Ruyan in surprise. Normally, few people would come to see his wife. "What kind of person is he? What are his characteristics?"
The knight replied respectfully: "There are four people, two men and two women. The two women are very young, and both have stunning looks, and the two men are old men, who look about seventy or eighty years old. They are all dressed in red, and they feel like flames. The one who spoke is one of the women. They should all be warriors. Everyone is carrying a long sword, so I can’t feel their level. But it shouldn’t be Weak, with a calm demeanor." As expected of a member of the Silver Feather Knights, his answer was extremely concise, but he described all the basic characteristics of the other party.
Yu Ruyan's face changed, and she said to Nian Bing: "It seems that it is not easy to eat your meal, and the time has finally come. Nian Bing, you go to the back to rest first, Auntie has to deal with it." thing."
Duke Lanyu's expression changed at the same time, "Ruyan, do you mean that someone is coming from over there?"
Yu Ruyan had a cold light in his eyes, "Yes, it must be them. Otherwise, who would wear red clothes for seventy or eighty-year-old men? There are four of them. I want to see which four are they. We were the first The daughter was executed by them, and this account should be settled. Brother Yu, let us all retire."
Lan Yu nodded, and said to the knight: "Bring those four people in, and at the same time, pass on my order. Without my consent, no matter what happens in the martial arts arena, no one is allowed to disturb."
"Yes, Your Excellency the Duke." The knight agreed and got up to go. Lan Yu turned to Lan Xun and Ruyi sisters and said: "You are all my children, and you are not considered outsiders. It is also time for you to see what the peak of a warrior is. You and Nian Bing have been retreating to the wall, remember , no matter what happens, don't do it, understand?"
For Lan Yu's order, Lan Xun and the three must be unconditional, so they hurriedly agreed, and Lan Xun pulled Nian Bing, who was still holding the Aotian knife, and retreated to the side of the courtyard. Nian Bing faintly felt that something was about to happen, and he didn't forget to put away his plates and cucumbers before stepping aside. He was determined to come and cook for Yu Ruyan to repay Yu Ruyan's favor, and he would never eat it before it was finished. will go.
The door opened, and after a while, four men in red came in under the leadership of the four knights of the Silver Feather Knights. As the knight said earlier, these four men were all wearing red clothes and carrying long swords. , two old men walked in front, both of them were tall and thin, their white hair matched with the red clothes, they looked very strange, their bodies were straight, and an invisible aura radiated around their bodies. Observation can also see its extraordinary. The appearance of the two of them was 80% similar, they looked like a pair of brothers, their cold eyes fixed on Yu Ruyan as soon as they entered the door.
Behind the two old men are two young girls. The girl on the left has long blue hair, which complements her red samurai uniform and looks very eye-catching. This girl has a special flavor, plus her big dark green eyes, her glamorous appearance is as moving as a breeze, her slender figure is very well-proportioned, her walking posture is very light, and her green hair and red clothes give people a very deep impression. Although she is beautiful, she is quite pale compared to the girl on her right. The girl walking on her right looks younger. Her long pink hair is neatly combed behind her back. She was tied with a blue headband, and her blue eyes, like the blue sky, shone with a moving profundity. Her slender figure and her pair of breathtakingly beautiful feet were almost perfect without any flaws. Among the people present, there was only Yu Ruyan Barely comparable to her, Yu Ruyan has a little more charm, but a little less youthfulness. The four silver-feathered knights led the four men in red into the courtyard and retreated quietly. Yu Ruyan greeted them with a few steps, her beautiful eyes full of murderous intent.
"Feng Nu." Nian Bing's voice full of surprises broke the killing atmosphere in the martial arts arena. The girl in red with long pink hair was shocked. When she saw Nian Bing, she flashed excitedly, almost invisible to the naked eye. She rushed to Nian Bing at a fast speed, and this girl was the phoenix girl who had left the Dragon Cave not long ago, "Nian Bing, is Nian Bing really you?" Her originally calm pretty face was already wet with tears. , the voice choked, both hands held Nian Bing's hand tightly, and the body trembled slightly due to excitement.
Feng Nu was excited, why not Nian Bing? At this moment, he could no longer tolerate anyone in his eyes and forgot everything. He opened his arms violently, and hugged Feng Nu tightly into his arms, that touching delicate body was trembling slightly in his arms. At this moment, Nian Bing felt that his heart was so full. He only had Feng Nu in his heart, and his emotions surged out uncontrollably. He knew that in this world, Feng Nu was the first person he fell in love with. . If his feelings for Long Ling still contain pity, then his feelings for Feng Nu are pure love, love without any reason. After going through the pain of life and death, whether it is Nian Bing or Feng Nu, in their hearts, each other's figure has become clearer, embracing desperately, feeling each other's heartbeat.
Ru Yan said coldly: "It seems that I am not the only precedent in the Feng Clan. The two elders, Feng Xu and Feng Kong, seem to be getting worse and worse in your ability to restrain the clansmen."
The eyes of the elder on the left called Feng Xu by Yu Ruyan were shining brightly, it was a substantial red light, "Feng Nu, what are you doing? Who is he?"
Feng Nu's whole body was shaken, and only then did she remember where she was. She pushed Nian Bing away violently, looked back at Feng Xu, and said in a low voice: "Great Elder, Nian Bing is a friend of mine, listen to me. explain."
The fire in Feng Xu's eyes was bright. "Fengnu, you should remember the family rules. I don't need your explanation. Go ahead and kill him. Pretend nothing happened."
Yu Ruyan sternly shouted: "Feng Xu, don't forget, this is not Fengqi Mountain, but my husband's Duke's Mansion. If you dare to kill people casually here, don't blame me for being rude to the Feng Clan."
Feng Xu said coldly: "Xiao Yan, when your father passed away, you were entrusted to us to raise you. We raised you up and taught you the Feng Clan's unique knowledge, but you betrayed the beliefs of the clan and the Feng Clan. Not to mention that kid today, even you and your husband will not be let go. Feng Nu, why don’t you do it?”
From the moment Feng Nu left his arms, Nian Bing had already come to his senses, carefully observed the situation in the Martial Arts Arena, and after listening to the conversation between Yu Ruyan and Feng Xu, he suddenly understood many things, his respected Aunt Yu Ruyan is obviously a member of the Feng Clan like Feng Nu, she left the Feng Clan because of Duke Lanyu, and at this moment, the elders of the Feng Clan brought someone to trouble her. Then what Elder Feng Xu actually asked Feng Nu to kill him, it was simply too ridiculous, he smiled slightly, and looked at Feng Nu affectionately, "Will you kill me?"
Feng Nu's complexion changed continuously, her figure flashed suddenly, and she came back to Nian Bing again, and a palm was directly printed on Nian Bing's chest. Nian Bing only felt a scorching air enveloping her body, flying away like a cloud and fog Get up, and at the same time, the phoenix girl sounded like a mosquito, "Pretend to be dead, or the elders will not let you go. Our phoenix clan is no better than the fire dragon clan, so don't make any more noise." The body slammed into the courtyard On the wall, Nian Bing's body slowly slid down. At the moment of impact, the scorching air rushed out from behind him, dispelling the momentum like a cushion, leaving Nian Bing unscathed.
Although Nian Bing was surprised, he was smart and did what Feng Nu said. After his body fell to the ground, he immediately closed his eyes and remained motionless.
The silver air flow filled like smoke, Feng Nu suddenly felt suffocated, her heart beat suddenly, Li Tianjian came out without any hesitation, without even a chance to turn around, it transformed into a fiery red light and shadow, trying to resist the blow Almost a mountain attack. Feng Xu's angry roar sounded at the same time, "Bold."
There were several explosions in the martial arts arena. Lan Yu stood in the center of the arena facing the two elders of the Feng clan. The veins in his wrist, Feng Nu surged with energy and blood, and was brought back by the elder Feng Xu, and the faces of the two elders, Feng Xu and Feng Kong, had already changed a little, they were surprised expressions.
Elder Feng Kong frowned slightly, and said: "Xiao Yan, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, your strength has improved a lot!"
Yu Ruyan ignored Elder Fengkong, found that Nian Bing was fine, and told Lan Xun and the three next to him: "Protect Nian Bing, remember what the Duke said, and you must not interfere." Shan returned to her husband's side as if teleporting, "It's true that we haven't seen each other for more than ten years. If our first daughter is still alive, she should be almost nineteen years old now."
Hearing Yu Ruyan's words, Lan Yu's eyes were full of murderous intent, and the bloody murderous intent honed from the battlefield made the two Feng clan elders startled, Feng Xu said coldly: "Unfortunately, she is already dead. Xiaoyan, back then you were hiding for many years and you had another child. Although you are the daughter of the former Great Elder, the clan rules of our Fang clan are not to be violated. Today we are here to solve the problem. As long as you kill the If your man hand over your other daughter, I can not only allow you to return to the Feng Clan, but at the same time, I can also appoint you as the elder of the clan, you should know what an honor this is."
A cold light flickered in Yu Ruyan's eyes, "I do know that when I was a child, becoming an elder of the Feng clan was my goal. But now, all this is not important to me. I only know that you are my female-killing enemies. Since you are cruel From the moment I killed my daughter, there was no relationship between me and the Feng Clan, just enemies. For the sake of raising me up and teaching me the skills of the Feng Clan, I did not seek revenge. , you actually came to the door to provoke again, well, since we want to solve it, let’s solve it together today. The four of you go together, avenge your daughter, brother Yu and I are enough." The slender and white jade hand wrapped around his waist. Touch it, and a silver light appeared like a spirit snake. It was a soft sword about three feet long. The sword body was silver in color. Yu Ruyan's wrist vibrated slightly. , Needless to say, this is also a treasured sword.
Lan Yu also moved, touched his waist as well, it was also a soft sword, but his soft sword was blue, wider than the jade-like silver sword, and the soft sword was straight , pointing to the two elders of the Feng clan in front of him, "Go ahead, don't worry, Ruyan and I will never win with more."
The eyes of Feng Xu and Feng Kong were red, "Since this is the case, there is no need to talk, Feng Nu, Feng Xiang, Jiu Li Chong Tian Jue." The fiery red fighting spirit permeated instantly, Feng Nu and the similar age The scorching Jiuli Dou Qi radiated from the girl's body at the same time, and the two girls gave a light drink at the same time, their delicate bodies soaring into the sky, bringing a shadow of fire. At this time, Feng Xu and Feng Kong also drew out the fiery red long swords behind their backs, and their fighting spirit instantly turned into silver, and at the same time they took a step forward, making a simple forward chop gesture. Although the sword cut a short distance, there was an ear-piercing screeching sound from the sword, obviously the grudge had been raised to the limit.
