People are floating in the rivers and lakes

The spring breeze is warm and the peach blossoms are in full bloom.

The stalls on the street can't be seen at a glance, shoulders rubbing against each other, and people are buzzing.

After several days of rushing, they finally arrived at a bustling town.Qi Zhen stepped into the private room of the largest restaurant in the city, ordered a table of dishes domineeringly, and ordered a pot of peach blossom wine.

The dark guard watched him silently.

There are five must-pass roads to go to Yunzong Mountain Villa, and this is one of them, and it is also the closest place to them after the young prince made his decision at that time.

In order to come here as soon as possible, these days they spared no expense to eat and sleep in the open. What is surprising is that the little prince didn't complain at all, and there was no trace of dissatisfaction on his calm face, until now he ordered a lot of dishes without blinking. , they can think a little bit about "the little prince didn't live very comfortably a few days ago".

It's just that they are used to his occasional arrogant appearance, they didn't expect that the little prince still has a resolute side, it seems that he has grown up in the blink of an eye.

Before the food was served, the room was a little quiet.

The dark guard saw that he didn't have much joy of having a big meal, but looked out the window, so he couldn't help but also took a look. He saw Wanbi Lake not far away, and there were many literati and elegant guests gathered in the gazebo, which was very lively. : "I heard that there is a flower viewing party here, young master, don't you want to go and see it?"

Qi Zhen said, "No."

The dark guard looked at him again.

Most teenagers at this age like to be lively, and the little prince is so calm and calm, he has really grown up... Tears filled their eyes, they were both happy and proud, and there was also a trace of inexplicable distress, mixed together, it was complicated and difficult to distinguish.

Qi Zhen turned to look at them, angry: "What kind of eyes are you looking at? I won't go if I don't want to go!"

"..." An Wei said, "Yes, yes, no."

The few people wiped off their sweat and almost forgot, because the invitation card has not been obtained so far, the little prince will be irritable occasionally and cannot be messed with.

In fact, they don't quite understand why the young prince attaches so much importance to this matter, isn't it just a birthday banquet, if it doesn't make it this time, there will be a next time.Although it is necessary to make more friends in order to be the leader of the martial arts, but there must be many guests that day, the little prince is not famous at all, who would care about him?What difference does it make if you go or not?

But as a secret guard, it is his duty to share the master's worries, and at this moment, there are only seven days left before the leader's birthday.

One of them said: "Master, regarding the invitation card, why don't we guard it on the road, as long as we see the single person who is going to Yunzong Villa, grab it."

"What are you robbing?" Qi Zhen stared, "The person's identity is there, and he can still go to Yunzong Villa after being robbed. If I am exposed on the spot, will my reputation be lost? Besides, if I don't know the identity of the other party, I will do it rashly. What if you get into trouble?"

"...Didn't you say you want to get an invitation card?"

"I thought that if I could find a chance to take a look halfway, I would make a fake one. Anyway, there are so many people, and the other party may not be able to remember everything, just get in." Qi Zhen sighed, "But then I understood one thing. .”

"what?"

"They usually don't take out this invitation card casually."

Dark Guard: "..."

"Besides, I don't know who will go to the banquet. Even if someone is standing in front of me, I don't know that he has an invitation card, so I can only change it."

The dark guard humbly asked for advice: "...then we?"

Qi Zhen hooked his fingers, and said mysteriously: "Find someone from a small sect, and beat him up."

Dark Guard: "..."

Isn't this about grabbing!

"Then I jumped out to stop you, beat you to pieces, fucked up, and cried for your father and mother."

"..." The dark guard felt that it was not good to listen to too much storytelling. Look at the word used, they looked at him suspiciously, "How to fight?"

"With internal strength, you don't need me to teach you how to do it?"

Well, pretending to be beaten badly, the dark guards nodded together: "What's next?"

"After I rescued him, he must be grateful to me. I will walk with him in the name of dropping by. I will go to Yunzong Villa on the last night of the card, and then escort him there in the name of worrying. They can't force us to leave at night. This will not only save my reputation, but also allow me to stay naturally."

The secret guard looked at him adoringly, feeling that it made sense, and after a while someone thought about it: "Master, what if he meets an acquaintance on the way of escort and wants to go with him?"

Qi Zhen immediately stared at him fiercely.

"..." An Wei said, "No, I'm just joking."

Qi Zhen snorted, he naturally knew this, but now there is no good way, so he can only do this first.

After a while, Xiao Er came in with the food and placed them on the table one by one.The secret guard watched him leave, and said cautiously: "We don't know anyone, where can we find people from the small sect?"

Qi Zhen didn't answer, but waited quietly, and when he saw Xiao Er came in with the remaining dishes, he ordered the hidden guard to close the door, looked at Xiao Er and said, "The business of the restaurant is so good, people in the Jianghu also like to come?"

Xiao Er said proudly: "No, our restaurant is the best in the city..."

Qi Zhen interrupted: "Then how many people have come here recently?"

Xiao Er was startled, looked at this noble guest, and said cautiously: "It's...not bad."

Qi Zhen took out a piece of silver and put it on the table. Seeing his eyes wide open, he asked him if anyone from the small sect was passing by.Xiaoer tried not to look at Yinzi, and reluctantly said regretfully: "Master Hui, I don't know, people from this small sect are unlikely to come to our store."

"There is no news?"

Xiao Er thought about it, and regretted even more: "No."

Qi Zhen slowly put another ingot, Xiao Er stared at them with a painful look, Qi Zhen glanced at him, and put another ingot, Xiao Er immediately covered his heart, as if he was about to suffocate, and said hastily: "Mr. , let’s inquire now, little one!”

"Well, I'll give you two days, remember that you must be a member of the small sect who is going to Yunzong Villa, and you can't talk about this matter, otherwise..." Qi Zhen looked at the dark guard, who understood , pinched the chopsticks and poked it easily, piercing the table instantly.

Xiao Er's face turned pale.

Qi Zhen raised his eyebrows: "Understood?"

Xiaoer hurriedly said: "I understand, understand, don't worry, grandpa, I will definitely not say anything!"

Qi Zhen responded and waved him out.How many years has he been an idle prince in his previous life? He knows that the mistresses in big restaurants are all eye-catching and well-connected. This small sect has no background, but he is rich, so it is clear at a glance how to choose the mistress. He is not worried about the other party. Will break my mouth.

After lunch, they asked for a few rooms in a nearby inn, and stayed there to wait for news, but after two days in a row, Xiao Er made no progress at all, and now there were only five days left before the leader's birthday.

As usual, the dark guard accompanied Qi Zhen to sit in the restaurant. Seeing that the sky was getting darker, he couldn't help secretly looking at the young prince. Seeing that he became more and more silent, he couldn't help but said, "Why don't we find that Meng Lian to go with him? They should go. It’s also this road, if we delay for a while on the road, let’s hurry up, maybe we can meet each other.”

Qi Zhen refused.

They just met, not to mention that he had already said that he was going to Pancheng, and after a few days, he said that he wanted to go to Yunzong Mountain Villa with them, which was obviously inappropriate. He said seriously: "They might think that I have some other purpose. what to do?"

Dark Guard: "..."

With your temperament and strength, it's okay to keep your reputation for a short time, but for a long time... I'm afraid it's hanging?

Qi Zhen took a look at the sky, decided not to wait, and said in a low voice that he still has two options, the first is to let the hidden guards beat him up, he lay dead on the road he must pass, and was rescued by the hero.The hidden guard was terrified, and shook his head: "If you want to deceive the hero, the injuries on your body are real!"

"I think I can take it."

"Subordinates dare not!" The hidden guards continued to shake their heads wildly, and one of them caught the point, "Young master, you were beaten so easily, spreading the word would damage your reputation!"

Qi Zhen was silent.The other three people immediately sent grateful eyes to their colleagues, while the previous person wiped off his cold sweat and waited for the second solution.Qi Zhen hesitated for a moment, then took out a piece of round jade.

"this is not……"

"Well, it was given by someone I met in the capital," Qi Zhen said, "You said he might be a master, if he also mixed in the rivers and lakes, he should have some reputation, but I don't know if it's Zhengxie..." His idea was very simple, Just take this piece of jade to visit the leader and ask the other party if he knows the owner of the jade. If the man is an evil sect, he will say that he has some festivals with him, if not, then he will say that he is a friend.Anyway, as long as you can get in.

But there are also risks, one is that the housekeeper is not easy to get along with, or the leader is too busy and has no time to take him to the side hall to hang out for a day and miss the birthday banquet, and the other is... if the man is a devil and the jade pendant will Donating to others, causing the leader to feel that this is a clue and not hesitate to detain them to extract a confession, the trouble will be big.

The hidden guard hesitated: "...Do you want to stop thinking about it? Or buy another jade?"

Qi Zhen shook his head, the pattern of this piece of jade is special, it looks like it was made to order, but to be able to get into the position of the leader of the martial arts, his eyes must be very vicious, if he uses the jade sold outside to fool him, he may guess that they want to Mix in, but if you find a store to do it now, I'm afraid it's too late.

He didn't have any other ideas at the moment, so he decided to choose the second method and took them away. At this moment, Xiao Er ran into the door from the outside and whispered that he had found it.

Coincidentally, it was the Kongshan faction that had been arranged by the storyteller. Qi Zhen almost wanted to laugh up to the sky, and praised: "Good job!"

After rewarding Xiao Er, he set off immediately, and arrived outside the city to hide after half an hour.

The other party has already left the city, there are only two people, one is a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, and the other is dressed as a servant, who seems to be a guard.After listening to the narration of the dark guard, Qi Zhen was very excited: "Do it!"

The secret guard said yes, two people were separated, disguised and flashed into the woods, and jumped out to rob when the other party passed by.

Qi Zhen blinked his bright eyes and hid quietly in the distance, secretly watching them bully others, until he felt that it was almost time to step out, and shouted: "Stop! What do you want to do in broad daylight?"

The dark guard snorted coldly: "Little baby, this is none of your business, if you are sensible, get out!"

Qi Zhen smiled playfully calmly, and stepped forward holding his fan: "I'll take care of this matter."

As he was talking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something in front of him, and stopped suddenly, his whole body was cold, snake, snake, snake...how could there be a snake?I am most afraid of this thing!

Seeing him pursing his lips, the dark guard seemed to be stiff, he couldn't help but startled, and had a bad premonition, the play had already started, and he had to continue singing, "My lord, come and hit us!"Hurry up!

What's wrong?Are you too nervous to go to the toilet?

Ouch, I'm so sad, what should I do?
