But ask the people

After coming out of the trial tower, Jiang Yi didn't mention the bead that Shen Chaosheng took out to anyone.

The next day, Shen Chaosheng came to look for her, followed by Bu Rulian.

"Today and tomorrow are holidays, do you want to go out with us?"

Shen Chaosheng didn't enter the door. She saw a shadow in front of the window, who seemed to be writing something, so she stood outside the window and talked inside.

The window hadn't been opened, Jiang Yi put down the pen in his hand after hearing the sound, leaned forward slightly, leaned in front of the wooden window, stretched out his hand and pushed it up, after the window was opened, Jiang Yi saw the standing Very close to Shen Chaosheng.

Shen Chaosheng also seemed to be surprised that Jiang Yi would open the window directly. She was taken aback for a moment, but a smile soon appeared in her eyes, and she said lightly, "Jiang Zongyue, good morning."

At this time, the morning light was twilight, and Shen Chaosheng and Bu Rulian came here on dew, so there would inevitably be moisture on their bodies, and the ends of her hair were stained with mist, and one corner was slightly raised, which was extremely vivid.

Shen Chaosheng's appearance was fully seen by Jiang Yi, and Jiang Yi felt his heart skip a beat. Did he even forget to step back, or did Shen Chaosheng see her not moving for a long time, so he naturally changed the subject: "What are you writing about?"

"It's nothing."

Jiang Yi answered briefly, she was just supplementing Jiang Zongyue's notepad, and she annotated some details that she needed to pay attention to with a red pen.

Jiang Yi then asked, "Where are you going?"

Bu Rulian at the side spoke at this time, still in the soft tone: "It's the capital of Zhongzhou. Father heard that the school is taking a rest. I hope I can go to Qianzhou."

Shen Chaosheng went on to say: "Although she is a princess, she still has to participate in the battle between the crown princes. Her father asked her to study in Xiuxian Mountain Realm, and she was originally asked to avoid this matter."

"Bu Rulian didn't want to stay in the capital, so she asked the emperor for a comfortable place, which probably counts as a fiefdom."

"So you want to come with us?"

"it is good."

Jiang Yi couldn't be away from Shen Chaosheng for too long, not to mention she saw new handwriting appearing in the notebook.

I went to Qianzhou with Wen Yuzhi and Bu Rulian, but I didn't expect to be summoned to the capital directly. When Bu Rulian put on a beautiful dress, she was the real princess of a country, but she was like a prisoner. Bird, very depressed, Wen Yuzhi and I both found out, and tried to make her happy, so we built a bamboo house in Qianzhou when we brought her back, and told her that apart from the imperial power, we were by her side.

We will probably see each other, even though we will say goodbye after a month.

……

When they walked out of the school, they saw an extremely luxurious carriage with brilliant decorations and high-quality Yunzhou wood, which could hold five or six people.

Unlike Jiang Yi's carriage used to lead the Shen family, the clan pays attention to status, but this carriage looks like a favor.

Bu Rulian is probably very favored.

But she looked pale, and she didn't have much joy. She opened the curtain of the car with her bare hands, turned to look at them, and smiled: "Let's go."

It took them half a day to arrive in Qianzhou, but the carriage didn't stop.

Bu Rulian seemed to have expected it a long time ago, she put down her hand to open the car window, and said to Jiang Yi and Shen Chaosheng: "Father probably wants me to go back to attend the banquet in the middle of the month and treat the imperial city as an amusement, I will take you for a walk Good for shopping."

The two had no objections, Jiang Yi nodded according to Jiang Zongyue's usual idleness, Shen Chaosheng didn't seem to care, but just used his spiritual power to transform into a butterfly and sent out a letter, which should be to inform the Shen family.

The three of them just arrived in Kyoto at dusk. The carriage drove through the busiest street, and the people gave way one after another. They looked at the carriage with admiring and respectful eyes, as if they knew that the most popular person in court was sitting in the carriage. Princess.

Only then did Bu Rulian's gaze turn gentle, and he waved slightly at them.

They got off the car outside the imperial city, led by the maid carrying the lamp, and walked towards the illuminated palace. There were not many people seated in the palace, but there were quite a few court ladies going back and forth, as if they were busy arranging for the banquet.

When they entered, there was only a man with a blue crown sitting on the table talking to the people beside him. When he saw Bu Rulian coming in, he immediately called out: "Second Sister Huang, are you back too?"

"Yeah." Bu Rulian's voice was much lower than this man's volume, but the man didn't care, he seemed to be used to it, and reported to Bu Rulian: "The great emperor... Brother Huang is also back There is no need to keep guarding the imperial mausoleum, it looks as if..."

He still wanted to say something, but when he saw Shen Chaosheng and Jiang Yi beside her, he stopped silently.

The three of them sat down at a table not too far away, and Shen Chaosheng, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, "Bu Rulian, don't you like banquets?"

After Jiang Yi heard it, his eyes turned to Bu Rulian, who looked as usual, but the loneliness in his eyes was quickly caught by the two of them.

The banquet was full of guests very quickly, at this time the emperor came late, he glanced at Bu Rulian, before he could say anything, Bu Rulian stood up and bowed gracefully.

"Father."

The emperor's eyes were loving, he nodded, and ordered the people around him to issue an imperial decree to Bu Rulian.

After Bu Rulian took it, he put it away without even looking at it.

"What is it?"

"It's the fiefdom of Qianzhou."

After the banquet started, it was nothing more than Yingying Yanyan's singing and dancing that dazzled everyone's eyes in the hall. Wen Yuzhi was not interested in these until the end of a performance, and a man in a fancy dress sitting diagonally across from her said wantonly: " Royal sister, is this the classmate you brought back?"

Originally, it was a coincidence, and the emperor didn't ask about it. After he mentioned it, the emperor had no choice but to open his mouth to express his concern.

"Ru Lian, are they your good companions?"

"Yes, Father."

The emperor nodded, but the man who spoke first didn't give up. His eyes drifted away from Shen Chaosheng's face, and he said, "Being the playmate of the imperial sister, he must also have a skill."

"How about performing a dance in this Yongqing Hall?"

After the words were finished, the silk and bamboo orchestras in the hall were silent, and many heavy eyes fell on Shen Chaosheng's face, but Shen Chaosheng still smiled as always, and stretched out his hand to pour himself a glass of wine.

"Bu Huamo, you are presumptuous!"

Bu Rulian didn't wait for everyone to react, and took the lead in smashing the wine cup on the table. The originally delicate beauty frowned and stared at her brother.

"She is my guest, how can you be so rude!"

But Bu Huamo was not frightened by her, and said without any politeness: "Bu Rulian, I think you are the one who is presumptuous and rude. Not only did you not call me brother, but you slapped the table and yelled in front of everyone. Did you take your father seriously?" Are you here? Do you take the imperial power seriously?"

"you……!"

Bu Rulian looked at her arrogant and unreasonable elder brother who had returned from exile for many years, and wanted to stand up and reason with him, but the emperor suddenly interrupted her: "Rulian, what your elder brother said is right. With the emperor's prestige, how can ordinary people refuse?" .”

……

After all, the emperor, even though he favored Bu Rulian, would not favor an outsider, so he allowed Bu Huamo to make things difficult for Shen Chaosheng to show his supreme imperial power.

Bu Rulian felt cold, she lowered her head and clenched her fists, and made a decision: she would take them away.

She was about to stand up, but Shen Chaosheng suddenly raised his hand to hold her down, raised his eyelids and glanced around and said, "It's okay, Rulian, it's just a dance."

"Furthermore, except for you Zhongzhou, no one pays attention to these things."

Bu Huamo's face was smug, he got the emperor's arrogance, and arrogantly agreed: "That's right, so how does the beauty plan to dance."

Jiang Yi couldn't bear it anymore, and asked sarcastically, "Do you know who she is?"

Bu Huamo laughed loudly when he heard the words: "What about the identity, under Zhongzhou, what identity is there..."

Before he could finish his sentence, a sword energy suddenly swept across his face, so powerful that his subconscious fear instantly climbed densely to the back of his head.

Shen Chaosheng was wearing a hollowed-out robe carved with Suiyu flowers. He stood up at some point, holding a long sword and staring at Bu Huamo with a smile in his eyes.

"Since I'm a guest, it's not easy to reject Ru Lian's invitation, so why not dance for her?"

"It's just that I don't know if the eldest prince can afford my dance."

When Shen Chaosheng said the last sentence, he mentioned the eldest prince, but his eyes turned to the emperor sitting in the center.

The emperor felt a little unnatural at her glance, and felt a little apprehensive in his heart. He himself was born as a grand prince, and he always felt that Shen Chaosheng's words seemed to be speaking to him.

Before everyone could speak again, Shen Chao became vivid.

Wen Yuzhi, as the fiancée of the young master of the Shen family, naturally learned to dance, but she had never danced in front of others.

As for Shen Chaosheng, although he is proficient in everything, he is not good at dancing.

But now, Shen Chaosheng is like a graceful fire butterfly, holding a sword in the center of the splendid hall, his movements are coordinated and smooth, dancing round after round.

Her eyes became exceptionally beautiful, as if a dancer from a foreign land was born for this purpose.

In the end, she stepped lightly on the lotus step, stepped on the table beside her and jumped into the air, like a bird falling down.

Jiang Yi, who had been watching her all the time, became nervous instantly. She subconsciously got up and stepped forward, trying to catch Shen Chaosheng, but Shen Chaosheng turned over and landed on the ground steadily. The moment he threw the sword, he looked back at Jiang Yi, and then pulled Then she walked towards Bu Rulian.

"what--!"

The thrown sword hit Bu Huamo's hand in front of him, and he was fascinated by Shen Chaosheng just now, and he couldn't help leaning forward, as if his heart and soul had been taken away by Shen Chaosheng.

The emperor was furious and ordered the guards to surround her, but Jiang Yi followed Shen Chaosheng with a sword and opened the guards who came forward, and his spiritual power shook the hall instantly.

Zhongzhou does not allow the use of spiritual power, which is the capital of this group of people who have been promoted to the throne, but at this time it has become the most threatening thing to them. They are constantly looking for dignity from monks, trying to cover up their humbleness when they climbed to the throne. Also forget that not everyone can tolerate them.

Among them, Jiang Zongyue and Wen Yuzhi were not among those who followed the rules.

Seeing Jiang Yi's actions, Shen Chaosheng smiled unsurprisingly, walked out of the hall like a practice, and no one dared to speak at this time.

When Shen Chaosheng called the sword back, he turned the sword around on purpose, and finally slashed across Bu Huamo's head and flew back into her hand.

"Emperor, your Bu family not only received the favor from Xiuxian Mountain Realm, but also us."

Shen Chaosheng unabashedly used his devilish energy in front of the emperor.

"Let's pay him back with his life first."

……

Bu Rulian walked out with the two of them, instead of caring about the situation inside, he said to them, "Sorry..."

Seeing her like this, Shen Chaosheng couldn't help laughing: "Why are you apologizing, I obviously caused this banquet and killed one of your elder brothers."

Seeing that Bu Rulian was a little disappointed, Jiang Yi immediately said, "I'm sorry."

Bu Rulian shook his head: "That person was called back to the capital by the emperor, and he just found a reason to kill him. He is wanton and arrogant, and he deserves to be killed."

"I have been restrained for many years, and the only time I chose to study in Xiuxian mountain world by doting on me."

"It just seems that you can't change your situation."

She raised her eyes and looked at the two of them, like a puppy with nowhere to go: "When I succeed in my studies, I will leave with you, but I will be alone again."

Shen Chaosheng patted her on the head, and comforted: "You have already obtained the fiefdom, so you won't come back at the worst."

"Why don't we go to Qianzhou now? After all, we have to pass by when we go back."

"We're going to find a clear place for you, so that it won't be known by outsiders. If you want to in the future, why not meet us there."

"it is good……"

Bu Rulian subconsciously agreed, and instead of making a carriage, they drew a teleportation array and went to a bamboo forest in Qianzhou.

Shen Chaosheng said: "It's the place I've marked. I see that it leads to seclusion, and it's perfect for a place to hide from the world."

Jiang Yi and Bu Rulian looked at the bamboo house in front of them, both were a little surprised, but they heard Shen Chaosheng say: "Jiang Zongyue built this. Although it was my idea, I'm not good at it after all..."

Just as Jiang Yi wanted to say when he did this, a memory suddenly appeared in his mind as usual.

-

Wen Yuzhi suddenly pulled Jiang Zongyue one day: "Hey, I have a roommate, she is a bit weak..."

Jiang Zongyue said bluntly: "I may be interested in you, but I can't protect a delicate little white flower..."

Wen Yuzhi interrupted her: "Tsk, then you go out with me today."

"Where?"

"Give me a job and build a house."

Jiang Zongyue smiled angrily: "Wen Yuzhi, what do you think of me as a coolie?"

Wen Yuzhi had no choice but to explain, not knowing how to convince Jiang Zongyue in the end.

It is probably because she said: "She is also a person who yearns for freedom" touched this inheritor of common people's kendo.

Jiang Zongyue had never met Bu Rulian before bumping into her, but was coaxed by Wen Yuzhi to prepare a surprise for Bu Rulian with her.

……

"Happy birthday, step by step."

At some point, Shen Chaosheng took out two jugs of wine from the side of the bamboo house, put them on the stone table outside, and took out a packaged knife.

"I also have a gift for you. This is a knife that I forged with my own hands."

"Although you are so weak that you shouldn't use a knife, I still hope you can take it."

"Just as it is, it cuts all the threads that bind you."

Bu Rulian looked at the woman who was not as tall as her in front of him, and couldn't help but chuckled: "You are also a weak woman."

"Okay, I remember."

I will always remember.

The three women drank together, although Bu Rulian didn't want to drink at first, but after all, he couldn't resist Shen Chaosheng's various entreaties.

And Jiang Yi seemed to know that he couldn't escape from the beginning, silently picked up the wine glass and sipped slowly.

This drink lasted until midnight.

Bu Rulian had already buried her face in her arms and fell asleep. When the cool wind blew, she subconsciously buried her face deeper. Jiang Yi suddenly stood up and walked towards the red place with her hands and feet.

Jiang Yi didn't expect that in the illusion, she was actually Jiang Zongyue's drinker, and she didn't expect that the current Jiang Zongyue couldn't even drink a glass.

Her consciousness kept stretching, slowly and vaguely. In the dream, she didn't know what she did, but she just seemed to feel that she was going to experience a lot with Shen Chaosheng.

Relying on detached restraint, she woke up.

As soon as Huanmeng woke up, she subconsciously wanted to find Shen Chaosheng.

Shen Chaosheng suggested drinking, but in fact she didn't drink much. As Wen Yuzhi, she needs to be as rational as possible. She bears the mission of the demon clan and the promise to Shen, so naturally she won't fall into a drunken dream easily. Only today, she seldom indulged in drinking.

In a trance, Shen Chaosheng opened one eye, as if the moonlight cast from the sky was too bright, and soon she blocked it with the back of her hand, leaving only a small gap, through which she vaguely saw Jiang Yi in front of her, confused He spelled out a sentence: "Jiang Zongyue, you are blocking my moon."

"yes."

Jiang Yi asked lightly, she was actually a little unstable, and she wanted to come over and take a look at Shen Chaosheng out of consciousness. All along, Jiang Yi thought that she was clear enough that this was just a long-term memory. She was a bystander and absolutely Not the person in the painting, but it is too real.

Jiang Yi felt a little lost, she didn't know what kind of ending was worthy of such a story.

She stopped looking at Shen Chaosheng, and was just about to step back when Shen Chaosheng, who was originally dazed, grabbed her wrist.

"...?"

Jiang Yi turned his head in a daze, and Shen Chaosheng didn't know when he sat up on the stone bench.

"I always feel that you are in a trance, unlike Jiang Zongyue."

"……what?"

When Jiang Yi was told by her, she instantly sobered up a lot, but Shen Chaosheng continued to talk.

"Jiang Zongyue... the first time I saw her, I thought she was extremely arrogant, even more arrogant than me."

"Arrogant, domineering, clearly pinched my face when we met on the fourth day."

"Why do you suddenly feel that something has changed?"

Shen Chaosheng raised his eyes and looked into Jiang Yi's eyes, one pair was messy and the other pair was clear.

Then Shen Chaosheng chuckled: "It hasn't changed."

"Your eyes... are arrogant."

"No matter how deep it is hidden, it is still the same arrogance."

She folded her arms on the stone table, her sleeves were pressed under her arms, and she didn't feel the cold. She looked elsewhere, as if she was complaining unintentionally.

"But I also don't think I'm Wen Yuzhi."

"I seem to be someone else."

"If that's the case, what's your name?"

Jiang Yi couldn't help but admire Wen Yuzhi's intuition.

Such intuitions, whether they come from illusions or not, are also very rare.

Such words must come from an incomparably sober mind.

Shen Chaosheng spoke the last words very lightly, as if she was about to fall asleep again after exhausting all her strength, she slowly closed her eyes, but her hands seemed to be still wanting to reach for the ginger.

Only then did Jiang Yi relax her vigilance. Under the bright moon, bamboo shadows were whirling, her fingertips were still cool, and she slightly touched Shen Chaosheng's slightly hot cheek.

"I am Jiang."

"I won't see Shen Chaosheng's Jiang for the time being."
