Shi Qingzhou asked the reason, but Zou Qingyuan smiled instead of saying the reason.
Shi Qingzhou was about to say something more, but Zou Qingyuan said: "Brother Shi will understand later."
"Okay." Shi Qingzhou was not a person who could force others to make things difficult for him, so he didn't ask any questions immediately after Zou Qingyuan didn't want to say anything.
The news of Yupei has been obtained, Shi Qingzhou did not stay any longer, and left with Long Xiaoyuan.
Zou Qingyuan escorted them all the way to the gate.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the door, a somewhat gorgeous carriage stopped outside.
Shi Qingzhou, Long Xiaoyuan and the others looked there instinctively, and then they were all taken aback for a moment.
A beautiful woman got out of the carriage, dressed in fresh and refined white clothes.
Zou Qingyuan immediately ran over after being slightly taken aback. "Miss?"
The person who came was Wu Xiangyuan, the lady from Tianjilou.
Wu Xiangyuan smiled at Zou Qingyuan. "Guardian Zou."
Zou Qingyuan immediately smiled and said, "Miss, why did you come here alone? She didn't even bring a guard."
Seeing how close Zou Qingyuan and Wu Xiangyuan are, it is obvious that the relationship between the two is very good.
Wu Xiangyuan smiled slightly. "It's okay, it's not that you don't know my martial arts, don't worry, ordinary Xiaoxiao don't want to do anything to me, I came all the way from Jiangnan, I didn't even bring my maid, but I was exhausted."
"Miss, please come inside, let's rest inside." Zou Qingyuan said immediately.
Wu Xiangyuan nodded, but when she was about to turn around, she saw Shi Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan in her sight.
Long Xiaoyuan raised his vigilance when he heard Zou Qingyuan calling Miss, and his heart skipped a beat when he saw Wu Xiangyuan looking towards them.
In the world of that novel, his Qingzhou family was with this woman.
Damn it, it couldn't be that this woman fell in love with his family's Qingzhou at first sight, so she picked medicine and followed her shamelessly, right
While thinking so maliciously, he didn't expect that the woman actually came this way.
"Guarda Zou, who is this?"
Obviously, Wu Xiangyuan's eyes were looking at Shi Qingzhou, so it was Shi Qingzhou who asked the question.
And Long Xiaoyuan? Maybe she just ignored it!
Depend on! Is this the law of protagonists? Damn, you can't see who I am, can you? Long Xiaoyuan cursed in his heart, and there was a trace of displeasure on his face.
"Miss, this is my good friend, Brother Shi." Zou Qingyuan said.
"Ah, is Zou Hufa's good friend?" Wu Xiangyuan looked very interested in Shi Qingzhou, and Long Xiaoyuan really wanted to say something, women, are you educated? Do you know of such an obvious interest? How did your mother educate you!
Long Xiaoyuan was very upset, so he directly pulled a stone light boat and hid the person behind him.
Everyone present was stunned by Long Xiaoyuan's sudden movement.
Even Shi Qingzhou was stunned.
Zou Qingyuan was even more so. He wanted to continue his introduction but was stopped because of Long Xiaoyuan's introduction.
And Wu Xiangyuan narrowed her eyes slightly, and her eyes finally settled on Long Xiaoyuan.
It was as if he had just discovered Long Xiaoyuan.
"Girl, we still have something to do. Let's say goodbye." Long Xiaoyuan uttered these few words forcefully, then pulled Shi Qingzhou and turned around to leave. This attitude can be said to be very impolite.
Shi Qingzhou paused for a moment, but he didn't refuse, and was dragged away by Long Xiaoyuan.
When the backs of Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou were gone, Wu Xiangyuan looked at Zou Qingyuan.
"Guarda Zou, who was that person just now?" Long Xiaoyuan was the one who asked the question.
Zou Qingyuan smiled wryly. "I don't know about this person...but...Brother Shi's identity is a bit special. That person took Brother Shi's hand so naturally, but Brother Shi didn't refuse. With some messages from the court, the identity of that person...
... It's not hard to guess. "
When Wu Xiangyuan heard the words, "Oh?", she said directly, "Tell me about the identities of those two people."
"The present majesty and empress." Zou Qingyuan raised his hand, which was respect for the emperor.
Wu Xiangyuan gasped. "Today's son is named Long Xiaoyuan... that friend you mentioned, Brother Shi... is that the queen?" "That's right." Zou Qingyuan nodded with a wry smile. "However, when I made friends with him, I didn't actually know the identity of the other party. I didn't know until later."
Wu Xiangyuan's eyes flickered slightly.
"Miss?" Zou Qingyuan saw that Wu Xiangyuan's expression was not quite right, so he called out.
Wu Xiangyuan lowered her head slightly. "It's okay... I'm a little tired. Go in and rest first. The driver outside is hired by me from Jiangnan, not from my building. You pay the money."
"Okay miss, no problem, I'll take care of it."
Wu Xiangyuan nodded, said nothing more, and walked inside...
That person turned out to be Shi Qingzhou, his elder brother Shitou... My first impression was correct and familiar, but... elder brother Shitou has long since forgotten her, right
Wu Xiangyuan pursed her lips, feeling a little bitter.
Shi Qingzhou was dragged away by Long Xiaoyuan, and Long Xiaoyuan's speed was so fast that it was not at all the same as when he came.
Shi Qingzhou was a little puzzled. He felt that the other party had become a little strange since he entered the Zhuangzi with him, and the current painting is even more so...
Shi Qingzhou waved his hand, making the two shadow guards hide their figures.
Then, looking at his tightly held hand, Shi Qingzhou said, "What's wrong with you?"
Long Xiaoyuan stopped abruptly, with Shi Qingzhou's skill, it would be impossible for him to almost hit Long Xiaoyuan, so Shi Qingzhou also stopped naturally.
Then, Long Xiaoyuan looked at Shi Qingzhou fixedly, and suddenly asked: "Qingzhou, tell me, is that woman beautiful?"
Shi Qingzhou: "..."
At this moment, Shi Qingzhou almost thought that he heard it wrong.
But Long Xiaoyuan obviously misunderstood Shi Qingzhou's astonishment and astonishment. "You really think she's pretty? No way
I think that's the case, the most beautiful woman in the world, it's just nonsense, I think Concubine Shan and Concubine Rou in the palace are prettier than her! "
Shi Qingzhou's face darkened slightly. "Concubine Shan... looks good?"
"That's not the point." Long Xiaoyuan said immediately.
Shi Qingzhou was speechless again.
Long Xiaoyuan hurriedly said: "Qingzhou, do you really think she is beautiful? How come, I think she is just average, you..."
"Does it matter to me whether she is beautiful or not?" Shi Qingzhou finally interrupted Long Xiaoyuan.
"Eh..." Long Xiaoyuan suddenly stopped.
Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan's appearance and really felt that the other party was very strange.
"Whether she is beautiful or not has nothing to do with us, does it?" Shi Qingzhou said again.
Long Xiaoyuan blinked, blinked again, and then suddenly smiled. "That's right! What does it have to do with us!"
Even if the woman in the novel is Qingzhou's wife, so what, hum, the ending has changed a long time ago!
Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan suspiciously, as if he had suddenly figured it out. "You...why ask this question?"
"Of course I'm afraid that Qingzhou will be fooled by her beauty." Long Xiaoyuan said as a matter of course.
Shi Qingzhou: "..."
Long Xiaoyuan grabbed Shi Qingzhou's hand. "Qingzhou doesn't believe it? Isn't this normal? Suddenly a beautiful woman comes to you, it seems that she has made friends with you and has taken a fancy to you. Of course I have to take precautions. We must have a woman who sticks to the door like this. Stay far away!"
Shi Qingzhou: "..." He really couldn't laugh or cry, suddenly he didn't know what to say!
At this time, Long Xiaoyuan continued: "Qingzhou doesn't have any feelings for her, does she?"
"I don't even know her, how do you feel?" Shi Qingzhou said helplessly.
"Well, if you don't know her, it's good if you don't know her! Qingzhou doesn't need to know her at all!"
Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan and couldn't help sighing, "You seemed a little strange when you entered Zhuangzi. At that time, the woman didn't appear. Tell me, what's wrong with you?"
"Well... this one." Long Xiaoyuan touched his chin, a little embarrassed. "It's nothing."
"Nothing?" Shi Qingzhou squinted, obviously not believing it.
Long Xiaoyuan coughed. "It's really nothing... Well, in fact, I just... suddenly feel that I don't know Qingzhou very well."
Shi Qingzhou froze for a moment, then suddenly thought of what he had done just now. "you… "
Long Xiaoyuan blinked, with an innocent expression on his face.
Shi Qingzhou said lightly: "If you make friends outside, if you are from the rivers and lakes, you must not make friends with your own heart. Do you... mind?"
Long Xiaoyuan shook his head. "It's not a question of whether you mind or not, Qingzhou. I just think that you seem to be very happy just now. I just wonder if you are bound by my side."
Shi Qingzhou's heart softened when he heard the words, and he was very moved by the man in front of him. "Why do you think so?"
"It's normal, isn't it? I see that you seem to have a good time talking with people, and people often laugh, but in front of me, Qingzhou has always looked like a modest gentleman... In the palace, you have to pay attention to every move, you can't Doing something that doesn't fit your status makes life really depressing... "
"No." Shi Qingzhou interrupted Long Xiaoyuan suddenly.
Long Xiaoyuan wanted to say something more, but was stunned when Shi Qingzhou interrupted him. "What?"
Shi Qingzhou shook his head. "No."
Long Xiaoyuan still looked at Shi Qingzhou puzzled.
Shi Qingzhou stared fixedly at Long Xiaoyuan, and then explained softly: "It's not that I've suppressed my nature, I don't like to make noises, and some people in the rivers and lakes do things for a purpose, it doesn't mean I like the life in Jianghu, I was born in the Shi family since I was a child, and you should know that my nature is like that... In your words, I am a gentleman."
Long Xiaoyuan hugged Shi Qingzhou fiercely when he heard the words.
Shi Qingzhou smiled slightly. Although there were no other people passing by on this road, at this moment, he didn't want to push the person holding him away at all.
But fortunately, Long Xiaoyuan is not indiscriminate, and won't keep hugging him forever.
After hugging for a while, I let go of Shi Qingzhou, feeling relaxed in my heart as if a big stone had fallen.
"So, the light boat I usually see is the real light boat. Just now, it was just because of need, wasn't it?"
"Yes." Shi Qingzhou's eyes are extremely soft.
Long Xiaoyuan happily held Shi Qingzhou's hand. "Qingzhou... I'm afraid it's my own fault that restrains you too much."
"No, I'm very happy with you, every day." Shi Qingzhou said lightly.
"Is this... is Qingzhou's sweet talk?" Long Xiaoyuan stared at Shi Qingzhou with wide eyes.
Shi Qingzhou's ears turned slightly pink, and Long Xiaoyuan almost turned into a pervert and pounced on him... Fortunately, he knew that now was not the right time for him to be in heat, so Long Xiaoyuan restrained himself.
The two went back hand in hand again...
But that's where the peace ends!
When he felt the killing intent coming, Shi Qingzhou, who had been prepared for a long time, just took Long Xiaoyuan's waist and flew away from the spot. The hidden weapon flashed sparks under their feet, and it was formed by friction at that time.
Then, more than a dozen shadow guards appeared beside Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou, and more than ten shadow guards guarded Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou in groups.
Moreover, the other twenty or so shadow guards met the attacking assassins.
There are also more than ten assassins, and they all seem to have high martial arts skills.
The expression on Shi Qingzhou's face was very indifferent. He was still holding Long Xiaoyuan's hand at this moment, and his eyes were fixed on those assassins.
Long Xiaoyuan turned his head, seeing Shi Qingzhou's expression, he couldn't help shaking his hand slightly.
Shi Qingzhou turned her head away, saw the comfort and worry in Long Xiaoyuan's eyes, and smiled. "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Long Xiaoyuan shook his head. "I'm not worried about the assassin, I'm worried about you."
"Me?" Shi Qingzhou raised his eyebrows.
"Well, I hope you don't take it too seriously." Long Xiaoyuan said seriously.
Shi Qingzhou softened his heart again, so it seems that this person always has a way to soften his heart and make himself... not at all like before.
For feelings, he has never expected it. In the past five years or so, he just endured it, but he didn't feel sad.
However, this person's sudden change...
From doubt at the beginning to the fall of a heart, I finally know the taste of love...
The mood is really ups and downs, a bit complicated...
However, no matter how complicated it is, it can't hide the joy in my heart...
Without this love, how could you be as happy as you are now
When Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou looked at each other affectionately, the assassination on the other side of the field was about to come to an end.
Naturally, a dozen assassins were no match for the siege of more than twenty shadow guards.
Those assassins were taken down without bothering Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou.
But when those assassins were all dead, Zou Qingyuan also brought some people there.
This kind of assassination almost happened at the gate of their villa, and in addition to Shi Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan's special identities, it would be a big deal if he didn't bring anyone over!
"Brother Shi!" Zou Qingyuan exclaimed.
Shi Qingzhou looked over and smiled reassuringly. "Brother Zou, don't worry, it's just for the younger generation, it's fine."
Zou Qingyuan didn't think at all that an assassin with high martial arts skills was the younger generation, but since people said he was the younger generation, then he was the younger generation!
Although he had already guessed Long Xiaoyuan's identity, but he didn't point it out, so he naturally pretended not to know!
After Shi Qingzhou negotiated with Zou Qingyuan, Shi Qingzhou let the other party leave.
Not all of those assassins were killed by shadow guards, some were just taken down but they all died. It can be seen that these people are all trained dead fighters.
"Well, it's a pity that the people of the Eastern Ye Kingdom look the same as us, but the people of the Northern Kingdom are slightly different from us. Otherwise, at least we can know whether these assassins came from the Eastern Ye Kingdom." Long Xiaoyuan Sighed.
Shi Qingzhou paused, but said: "There is a way to know whether these people come from Dongye Kingdom."
"Huh?" Long Xiaoyuan looked at the other party. "What way?"
"If you can't know their news from the right way, then go from the rivers and lakes." Shi Qingzhou said slowly.
Long Xiaoyuan had just come out of the Tianji Tower, so he naturally understood Shi Qingzhou's meaning, but his brows frowned.
"Tianji building?"
Shi Qingzhou found that Long Xiaoyuan still had a vague resistance to Tianjilou, so he changed the topic. "It's not necessarily Tianjilou, there are other Jianghu organizations."
Long Xiaoyuan pursed his lips and said suddenly: "Where's the Tianji Building?"
"Maybe there is a way." Shi Qingzhou said cautiously.
Long Xiaoyuan pursed his lips, "Qingzhou..."
Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan.
Long Xiaoyuan scratched his head and stopped talking.
The shadow guard and others disposed of the corpse on the spot, and the solution was cruel.
Two big trees were cut down, and then those dead men were piled up together, with a special kind of burning fat, even water can burn, let alone two trees.
Soon, all those corpses were disposed of.
This period of time lasted for a full quarter of an hour, but no one else appeared on this non-official road.
It seems that there are other shadow guards in front of them...
Looking at the burning fire, Long Xiaoyuan sighed softly after a while.
"The confrontation between the superiors is accompanied by the price paid by human lives."
Long Xiaoyuan's shallow sigh made Shi Qingzhou silent for a while, and then Shi Qingzhou said softly: "Once the general is successful, all bones are dead. When I was young, I didn't understand the meaning of this sentence. After I really went to the battlefield , to understand the meaning of this sentence.”
"Qingzhou..." Long Xiaoyuan shook the opponent's hand. "let's go."
Shi Qingzhou nodded. "good."
Long Xiaoyuan lost his initial leisurely mind, but the pace of walking while holding Shi Qingzhou's hand did not speed up much.
The two returned to the palace in a dangling manner.
Back at Kunning Palace, Shi Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan went to change clothes.
It was already afternoon when they changed their clothes, and they hadn't eaten lunch yet. Both of them didn't have much appetite, so they casually settled the late lunch.
After that, Long Xiaoyuan went to the Imperial Study Room, and Shi Qingzhou was also in Kunning Palace to deal with other matters...
