Everyone present was stunned by Li Qianxiao's sudden words, including Yun Ruoyan of course.

Impossible, obviously so far away, obviously no one saw her face! How could the prince recognize her? !

"His Royal Highness, Ruoyan doesn't understand what you are saying, what kind of masked woman?"

Although Yun Ruoyan was shocked in her heart, she didn't show it at all on the surface.

She frowned slightly, and looked at Li Qianxiao with doubts in her autumn pupils that looked like water.

Li Qianxiao's hand was still pointing in mid-air, and Shangyun Ruoyan's clear and lingering eyes couldn't help but be dazed again.

He has seen a lot of beauties, fat and thin, with all kinds of styles, even his girls are also outstanding.

But the woman in front of her didn't seem to exist in this world. Such clear and bright eyes should only be possessed by the mortal fairies of the Nine Heavens.

"His Royal Highness." The servant behind Li Qianxiao reached out and pushed Li Qianhan lightly behind Li Qianhan, only then did Li Qianxiao come to his senses, and withdrew his hand pointing in mid-air.

"His Royal Highness, who did you say the little girl was?" Yun Lan, who was walking beside Li Qianxiao, asked puzzledly, "What's the meaning of that masked girl who broke into the forbidden area?"

"Oh, my father and I went hunting in Hades Mountain yesterday, and met a masked woman in the hunting ground. Just now, I felt that Ling Qianjin looked like her."

Li Qianxiao tilted his head slightly to answer Yun Lan's question, but his gaze was still looking at Yun Ruoyan probing.

Yun Ruoyan's gaze met his, and she immediately assumed a daughter's shy gesture, lowered her head in a panic, and her hair fell down to cover most of her cheeks.

Ever since seeing Yun Ruoyan's masked image in a pink gauze in the forbidden area of the hunting ground yesterday, Li Qianxiao has never forgotten her stunning beauty, and often fantasizes about how shocking her face under the veil should be. people.

Just now he suddenly saw Yun Ruoyan's beautiful face with tulle, as if the vague fantasy that existed in his mind suddenly jumped in front of his eyes, he blurted out without thinking.

However, after that momentary feeling passed, Li Qianxiao himself felt that his thoughts were a bit absurd.

Ah Da said that the woman's cultivation had already reached the peak level of the seventh-level sword master, and the prostitute daughter of the Yun family was rumored to be a good-for-nothing ugly girl.

But... Li Qianxiao couldn't help squinting his eyes when he looked at Yun Ruoyan. Yun Ruoyan was dressed in embroidered clothes and knelt down in front of him dignifiedly, looking like a noble lady.

It seems that the rumors are wrong!

But the cultivation at the peak of the seventh level is impossible for her at this age.

The crowd had no way of knowing what Li Qianxiao was thinking at the moment, they just saw his eyes wandering over Yun Ruoyan, as if he was very interested in her.

Seeing this, Yun Lan's deep gaze moved involuntarily.

However, Mrs. Liu looked at Yun Ruoyan with some anxiety, thinking, she must have really entered the forbidden area of the hunting ground, right? !

But after thinking about it, she also felt that it was impossible, with Yun Ruoyan's current cultivation level, how could she get out of the forbidden area intact!

"His Royal Highness, you must have identified the wrong person?" Liu said, "There is no emperor who allows trespassers to be killed in the forbidden hunting grounds. As officials and family members, we naturally know this rule, so how dare we trespass."

"Naturally." Li Qianxiao finally looked away from Yun Ruoyan, and said with a smile, "That woman is so powerful, even the twenty or so royal guards are no match for her, so naturally Miss Yun cannot be her. "

As Li Qianxiao said, he stretched out his hand to help Yun Ruoyan up, and said softly, "I was being reckless, didn't I scare Miss?"

Yun Ruoyan still lowered her head, shook her head slightly and did not speak. The broken hair on her temples swayed from side to side as she shook her head, making her even more exquisite and lovely.

Li Qianxiao looked at Yun Ruoyan with a stronger smile in his eyes.

"His Royal Highness, please come inside." Yun Lan said with a smile on the corner of her mouth, her eyes swept across Yun Ruoyan meaningfully.

A group of people came to the hall in a mighty manner with Li Qianxiao in their arms.

The Crown Prince sits at the head of the throne, Yun Lan and Liu Shi are accompanied by two sides, An Shi sits at the bottom, and the three Yun Ruoyao sisters can only stand at the back.

However, Yun Ruoyan was led by Liu Shi and stood by her side.

Yun Lan and Li Qianxiao chatted a few words, and after a while, three or four maidservants filed in, and An Shi got up and offered the celadon lotus teacups on the tray one by one.

"His Royal Highness hasn't come here for a long time, try this candied red bayberry soup to see if it's still delicious." Yun Lan picked up the teacup on the wooden table and said to Li Qianxiao.

A long time ago, when Li Qianxiao came to visit Yun's house, he accidentally tasted this candied red bayberry soup and praised it very much. From then on, Yun Lan ordered people to make preparations every day in case of emergencies.

Li Qianxiao took a sip of the tea cup and praised: "The taste is even better than before. In terms of refreshments, Master Yun's family is the best among all the aristocratic families. It seems that in the future, if you want to have a full mouthful, you still have to come to Master Yun's house often .”

"Then His Highness the Crown Prince will come here often. In the past six months, the two girls Ruoyao and Ruoyu have been whispering in my ears, when will the Prince's brother come?" An said with a smile: "I hope that His Highness the Crown Prince will come now." coming."

"Mother." Yun Ruoyu said coquettishly, "How could we!"

Seeing her like this, everyone laughed.

When Yun Ruoyan saw that Yun Ruoyu, who had always been domineering, showed the appearance of a little daughter, she couldn't help but feel moved. It seemed that she, the third younger sister, was attracted to Prince Li Qianxiao.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help sweeping her eyes over Yun Ruoyu and Li Qianxiao, and with such a casual sweep, she met Li Qianxiao's smiling eyes.

As a human being in two lifetimes, Yun Ruoyan, who has experienced both what should be experienced and what should not be experienced, suddenly understood the meaning in Li Qianxiao's eyes.

She couldn't help but secretly sighed badly, and turned her eyes away to look at the ground hastily, looking at her nose with her eyes and her heart with her nose.

At this time, Yun Ruoyan heard Li Qianxiao say: "I was a guest at Yun's house before, and I have been playing with sister Ruoyao and Ruoyu all the time. I rarely see sister Ruoyan. So I am not very familiar with sister. Just now I'm so sorry that I only slammed words at the door!"

Yun Ruoyan was still looking at her nose with her eyes and her heart with her nose, as if she didn't hear Li Qianxiao's words.

"Ruoyan." Mrs. Liu pulled Yun Ruoyan's arm, "The crown prince is talking to you!"

"Huh? Oh!" Yun Ruoyan raised her head and glanced at Li Qianxiao, and said, "It's okay." Then she lowered her head again.

Liu turned her head and glanced at Yun Ruoyan, with some doubts and dissatisfaction in her eyes.

What happened to the child today

Why did she keep her head down all the time, as if she didn't dare to see people, it wasted her effort to dress her up well, why did she change back to the timid and timid look at the critical moment.

Yesterday, where did the energy to deal with the sisters go when I taught the servant girl a lesson

"hehe."

Li Qianxiao was mistaken, thinking that Yun Ruoyan was also shy, but he laughed out loud, "Sister Ruoyan is generous and doesn't blame me, but this prince can't pretend that nothing happened, so I will definitely bring a gift some other day." Apologize to my sister."

"hehe."

Yun Lan also smiled and said, "His Royal Highness, you are being polite. My daughter has been ill in the past and rarely sees her in the inner courtyard, so she is a bit reserved. Your Highness, don't blame me."

"how could be."

Li Qianxiao hurriedly said, and then looked at Yun Ruoyan with concern, "I have also heard some rumors outside, and know that sister Ruoyan is not in good health, how is she recuperating now?"

"Everything is fine." Mrs. Liu continued, "Not only is the body healed, but the cultivation base has also improved a lot. I have passed the trial of the Kongming Academy, and I am waiting for the admission notice."

"Oh." Li Qianxiao's eyes lit up, he didn't expect Yun Ruoyan, who looked small and weak, to pass the trial of Kongming Academy.

He has also experienced the trials of the Kongming Academy. The royal family's ancestral training, if the royal family and nobles want to enter the Kongming Academy, they need to pass the secret realm trial just like the children of ordinary families.

However, the ancestral teachings are back to the ancestral teachings. For Li Qianxiao, it is just a formality. He brought a few high-level sword masters, alchemists and summoners with him for a ten-day tour in the secret realm. Can.

However, he has seen the power of monsters in the secret realm before. It was the last night of the trial in the secret realm. They suddenly encountered a giant-toothed tiger, and all of them worked together to finally kill the giant-toothed tiger. However, more than half of the warriors were killed or injured.

"I didn't expect sister Ruoyan to look so delicate, she's quite amazing." Li Qianxiao praised.

Yun Lan smiled and said, "It's just that I don't see many customers, and my temper is too reserved, which makes His Royal Highness laugh at me. If the Prince doesn't dislike it, please come and help me **** this daughter."

'Help me **** this daughter. '

As soon as Yun Lan said this, Li Qianxiao's heart skipped a beat.

When he saw Yun Ruoyan with black hair loosely pulled back, dressed in a bright red dress, standing there dignifiedly, he couldn't hide his brows.

"Sister Ruoyan really sees too few visitors." Li Qianxiao said, "Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many false rumors about my sister."

After finishing speaking, he seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and continued: "In a few days, it will really be summer. Every year at this time, the queen mother will hold a flower viewing feast. At that time, some children from aristocratic families will be invited into the palace to enjoy the flowers together." Hua, I have never seen Sister Ruoyan at a banquet in the past, this time I will send an invitation to Sister Ruoyan in advance as a surrogate mother."

When Li Qianxiao mentioned the flower viewing feast, everyone's eyes lit up except Yun Ruoyan.

Because, that is called the Flower Appreciation Banquet, and it is actually a talent contest for the children of the aristocratic family. Dou Xiuwei, dou martial arts, dou talent, dou appearance, dou conversation, dou clothing.

There is nothing in a person that cannot be used for fighting, and all these competitions are for the queen to see.

There are eight princes and five princesses in the royal family, none of whom are formally married, and the object of marriage will be selected among the children of these families.

All the children from the aristocratic families in Liguo squeezed their heads into the flower viewing banquet. Even if they couldn't be selected, it was still an opportunity to show their talents and gain insights.

"That's a good relationship." Mrs. Liu was all smiles, and Yun Lan also rushed to say hello.

Yun Ruoyan also became interested at this time.

In her previous life, she was quite curious about this famous flower viewing banquet. Although she was a legitimate daughter, she could not enjoy the rights she should have, which also hit her quite hard in her previous life.

Since, this life has the opportunity to make up for the regrets of the previous life, why not do it.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, Ruoyan." Yun Ruoyan finally showed a positive smile to Prince Li Qianxiao.

"Sister Ruoyao, can I go to this flower feast this year?" Yun Ruoyu asked softly, and Yi Qianying also came over.

There are restrictions on participating in the flower viewing banquet, such as not being too young, not too poor in appearance, and being the first son of the first wife.

Last year, Yun Ruoyao went there with Yun Ruoyan's quota, and when she came back, she described what she saw and heard to Yun Ruoyu and Yi Qianying, making their mouths drool with envy.

So when Li Qianxiao mentioned this matter, both Yi Qianying and Yun Ruoyu became calm.

"It's hard to say." Yun Ruoyao whispered: "Didn't you hear His Royal Highness said that the quota has been given to Ruoyan? I performed well last year, so I can go directly this year. Generally, two quotas for a family is the limit."

"Then it's not like we have no chance." Yi Qianying sighed.

Yun Ruoyu didn't speak anymore, but her eyes shot at Yun Ruoyan with hatred in her eyes. She was unwilling to be reconciled to being robbed of her spot by Yun Ruoyan! She must take back this spot that belongs to her! !
