What should I do if my junior brother becomes a bad old man?

At this moment, the sky had already started to darken, although it was not really dark yet, the Bai Ruxie mansion was already full of lights, illuminating the whole mansion brightly.Ren Zhen followed Immortal Guichen to the home of Great Elder Qing Kui before, and he remembered that the mansion was a bit old, spacious and grand, with very simple and elegant decoration.The Ninth Elder's house is not as spacious as the First Elder's house, but they are all newly built pavilions, exquisite and extraordinarily gorgeous, and one can see the owner's style.

In such a house, there must be quite a few servants inside, but since Ren Xun entered the gate, he has never seen a single servant, and there is silence everywhere.It seemed that Bai Ruxie was worried that the servants' rough hands and feet would disturb the distinguished guests, so she refused to let the servants show up, but personally guided him through the veranda to the flower hall where the banquet was held.

The courtyard next to the veranda is obviously well-designed. There are lotus flowers planted in the pond, and various seasonal flowers are scattered around the pond. Under the reflection of the lanterns at dusk, they appear hazy and charming, and they are somewhat dreamlike. .There is a dark fragrance surging in the night, the smell of some unknown flower, enveloping everything in an inexplicable atmosphere.

Bai Ruxie was in front of Ren Xun, keeping a step and a half away from him all the time, leaning sideways and raising her hand to guide her, her eyes lowered, as if she didn't dare to look up at him.The patterns on his clothes reflect the water waves and the light of the lanterns, showing an amazing flow of light.When he raised his eyes slightly in order to see the path ahead, he could see his slender phoenix eyes flashing light, which complemented all these, and it was an indescribable harmony.

At the end of the corridor, through a hanging flower door, there is a small flower hall. The flower hall is not big, but it is very delicate. There is a small table inside, which is suitable for two people to sit. It seems that it is only used for entertaining close guests.There was no one in the flower hall, but the food and wine on the table had already been set, and the dishes were still steaming. Apparently, there were servants counting the time when they came over, and after preparing everything, they quietly retreated out, leaving only The host personally entertains the guests.This kind of hospitality not only made people admire the well-trained servants in his house, but also brought a bit of mysterious and weird atmosphere, which made people feel uneasy.

After leading the guests to the flower hall, Bai Ruxie raised his head at this moment, only to see that his cheeks were slightly flushed and his face was full of spring breeze, which was completely different from the expression at the banquet last night.He asked Ren Xun to sit at the head first, then picked up the jug and poured wine for the two of them, raised his glass and said:

"I'll respect Mr. Ren first."

Ren Zhen nodded in greeting, raised his wine glass to touch him, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.I don't know what flower petals are used to infuse the wine, besides the aroma of the wine, there is also a sweet and soft floral fragrance, which is easy to enter the throat, after drinking it, the aroma fills the mouth, it is really interesting.

Bai Ruxie also drank up the wine, and refilled the wine cups for the two of them, then sat down at the second seat, without saying anything else, only said:

"Although this table is crude, it was made by the cook who gave up with all his strength. Please use it."

Ren Xun looked at the dishes on the table, although there was no dragon liver and phoenix marrow, they were full of rare and rare ingredients. Although the number of dishes was not too many, it was obvious that a lot of work had been spent on each dish, not to mention the taste, just from the In terms of shape, it feels really beautiful. "Rough" and so on are obviously just modest words from the master.To prepare such a banquet, I don't know how much manpower and material resources will be spent. Although Bai Ruxie, as the Ninth Elder, is considered to be a high-ranking person in Qingqiu Kingdom, it may be too expensive to be able to organize such a banquet in such a short period of time. I did my best.

Ren Zhen has been in the world for a long time, he has dealt with all kinds of people, and was treated as a guest by high officials and nobles, but he has never received such treatment.During the palace banquet last night, he already saw that Bai Ruxie treated him very special, but he did not expect that he actually put his heart into it.In Ren Zhen's view, if friends meet for many years, no matter how careful they are, it is not too much, but at this time, he is receiving such an exaggerated warm reception from a stranger like Bai Ruxie, which makes him feel strange and uncomfortable.

He bowed his head in thought for a moment, and decided to ask the doubts in his heart directly:

"Although I met the Ninth Elder once before, it was only a quick glance at the station, and we had no relationship at all. Why did the Ninth Elder specially invite me today?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ruxie smiled slightly and said:

"Mr. Ren regards me as a stranger, but I have known Mr. Ren for a long time. It is confusing for me to say this. Fortunately, I have enough time today. If Mr. Ren is not too annoying, please listen to me tell these stories one by one. Come together."

Ren Sha nodded, and Bai Ruxie said:

"Young Master Ren probably knows a little bit about my origin. Although I come from the white fox clan, I am only a side branch. My parents have no talent in cultivation and died early. Only my sister and I are left to depend on each other. Later, the elders They said that my elder sister's fate is unspeakable, so they sent her into the palace as a concubine, leaving me alone outside."

Bai Ruxie's tone was pathetic and pitiful, with a melancholy rhyme.Rao Ren Xun's heart was as hard as a stone, and he was slightly moved, only to hear him say again:

"I was still young at that time, and I didn't have any parents to discipline me. Once my sister left, I felt even more lonely. Although there was only my sister in the palace at that time, the king of the country never made any false remarks to her. My sister was not valued in the palace. The elders in the clan didn’t take me seriously. I thought staying in Qingqiu was not interesting, so I just left Qingqiu to travel. At first, I just wandered aimlessly, and then I came across your portrait by chance. I heard the story of you subduing the green dragon while fishing on the seashore, and I admired you very much, so I deliberately searched for your traces. Hard work pays off, and I have found many legends and traces of the old times in the world. It can be regarded as heaven Blessings, I followed the traces all the way, and once I met your original body, even though it was just an accidental glimpse in the clouds, it made me dream about it for a long time."

When Bai Ruxie said this, he turned his eyes and looked at Ren Sha, only to see a look of surprise in Ren Sha's eyes.He smiled, lowered his head and said:

"Later, my sister gave birth to a prince for the country's lord, and her position was stable, so she called me back to the country. I wasted in the country for decades, and when I came out, I couldn't find you. At that time, I was already considered a For some status, I sent people to search carefully, and it was only after decades that I learned that you lived in seclusion near the capital during that time. I hurriedly followed the direction reported by my men, and finally met you once at the post station. But at that time I I was a little thin-skinned, so I didn't dare to talk to you after all. I regretted it for a long time, and said that I would never have the chance to see you again in this life. I didn't want you to come to Qingqiu country this time, and finally fulfilled my dream for many years. "

After listening to Bai Ruxie's words, Ren Sha felt baffled.

It was the first time he met someone like Bai Ruxie, although Bai Ruxie's words just now seemed to explain his special attitude towards Ren Zhen, but after hearing this, Ren Zhen felt even more confused.He has seen mortals worship practitioners or dragons and phoenixes as gods, and Bai Ruxie's attitude is somewhat similar to that of Bai Ruxie, but mortals worship gods to ask for blessings, but Bai Ruxie doesn't seem to ask him for anything; He had also heard Gu Xunzhi's silly words, which seemed to have something in common with Bai Ruxie's words. However, Gu Xunzhi was raised by him since he was a child, and he was completely different from Bai Ruxie.Therefore, after hearing this, Ren Sha didn't know how to react.

When Bai Ruxie saw that Ren Sha remained silent, her heart beat a little, but she said with a smile on her face:

"It's my fault for saying so many meaningless things, which made the food cold, and I should be punished with a glass of wine."

Having said so, he took a full drink.Ren Xun didn't intend to blame him for talking too much, so she also had a drink with her, and took a few mouthfuls of food with her chopsticks.He thought about it, and said:

"Your Excellency's situation when you were young is truly deplorable. But now that Your Excellency is the mother-in-law of the country's lord and the Nine Elders of Qingqiu Kingdom, it is extremely valuable to respond to everyone, and there is no need to take things about when you were young. "

Bai Ruxie smiled:

"That's natural. I came from an ordinary family. I was very lucky to be able to sit in the current position. I have nothing to complain about. I have forgotten everything about my youth. It is just my longing for Mr. Ren. No matter how long it takes It will not be obliterated. I have already inquired that Mr. Ren came to my Qingqiu country to send the prince off, and he will leave after the prince's sister recognized by the outside world canonize the princess... I wonder if you can look at me, in Qingqiu How long does the country have to stay?"

Ren Sha shook her head and said:

"Before, we were only planning to send the prince here and leave, but the prince's sister is our good friend, so we decided to stay here for a while. Things like conferring a princess will take a few months, and we are here Staying for several months has far exceeded the original plan, and it is impossible to stay any longer."

Bai Ruxie's heart and eyes were full of Ren Sha, at this moment Ren Sha said "we", and then he vaguely remembered that there was a master and a younger brother who came with him, and he couldn't help feeling a little depressed:

"I heard that your younger brother has some illnesses. You are in a hurry to leave because of your younger brother, right? Speaking of this, I really don't understand. You are a unique existence in the world, why do you worship such an ordinary earth fairy?" To be a teacher, to be worthy of a male senior brother who is not even a practitioner? How can a person like this be worthy of being with you?"

Ren Zhen was very upset when he heard Bai Ruxie's contemptuous words.That's fine with Guichen Immortal, but he actually touched Ren Xun's nerves by mentioning Gu Xunzhi in such a tone.He glanced at Bai Ruxie and said coldly:

"You said that my master and younger brother are not worthy of being with me, so is it possible that you are worthy?"

When Bai Ruxie saw that Ren Sha was angry for those ordinary people, the arrogance in his heart surged, he stood up from his seat unknowingly, and said loudly to Ren Sha:

"Of course I don't deserve it, but I'm not an ordinary fox, so I'm supposed to be two points more qualified than those dubious guys."

The author has something to say: Bai Ruxie's character is really annoying, at first he was very respectful, but after a few more words, the personality of a megalomaniac emerged.

Today's writing is much smoother, and the state is very good.

See you tomorrow.
