bastard returns

Ning Yi turned to one side, dodging Jing Yi's arrow point, then folded the fan together, and knocked the fan bone towards Jing Yi's wrist.

Ning Yicai has always shown himself as a gentle and refined civil servant outside, very few people know that he is actually capable of martial arts, when the two fight, many people around are stunned, including Ning Zhongkun who came with him.

After learning from the emperor that it was going to be a martial arts competition, Ning Zhongkun knew that he was useless. Even if he was not proficient in writing, he still knew a little bit, but he knew nothing about martial arts. Can't get up.Of course, while thinking that he is useless, he is also not optimistic about the two brothers Ning Yicai. Even if Ning Lie practiced martial arts, he is not very good. In addition to his status as a concubine, he is completely different from Princess Wanyi. .

Therefore, after seeing that Ning Yicai was able to fight Jing Yi who had defeated Sikong Xuan, Ning Zhongkun almost dropped his jaw.

Ning Zhongkun is a miraculously selfish person, usually as long as he can't get something, he will have a mentality that others can't get it, but sometimes this mentality will change because of who the object is, for example, now, instead of Letting that guy Ning Yicai win the championship and the toad eat the swan meat is not as good as Jing Yi's victory, at least in terms of status, Jing Yi can barely afford it.

Jing Yi soon discovered that Ning Yicai's kung fu was actually not as good as his own. He was able to entangle himself with him for so long, most of which seemed to have taken advantage of his quick and dexterous movements. Gradually slowed down due to exhaustion of physical strength, Jing Yi took a deep breath, suddenly seized an opportunity, and swung his sword across, wanting to knock out the folding fan in Ning Yicai's hand and win.

But at this moment, a sneer suddenly appeared on Ning Yicai's face, he didn't even hide, instead he shook his folding fan and came towards the wooden sword blade.

The person who wants to use a paper fan blade against a wooden sword blade is stupid. Jing Yi was wondering, but at the moment when the fan blade and the sword blade came into contact, there was a sudden change, and Jing Yi's pupils shrank. Seeing that a metal blade suddenly protruded from the bone of the folding fan in the opponent's hand, it was so sharp that it gave off a cold light, the cold light only flickered twice, and the wooden sword in Jing Yi's hand broke in two.

"Patta" the broken sword body fell to the bluestone ground, and the movements of the two people also stopped.

"Young Master Jing, you lost." Ning Yicai stood up again, and said with a smile: "Master Jing is very skilled in martial arts, Yicai is purely a fluke, let me let it go."

Jing Yi's eyes seemed to burst into flames, and he was about to reprimand Ning Yi for cheating with hidden weapons, but when he took a closer look, the folding fan in his hand was still that folding fan, which was nothing special, where did the blade come from.

"I'm afraid Mr. Ning made a mistake. The hilt is still in my hand, the weapon is still in my hand, and the victory or defeat is not yet determined. Please don't get too complacent." The sword attacked again.

Ning Yicai thought that breaking Jing Yi's sword would make him give up, but he didn't know that the opponent was still so persistent without half of his weapon. Ning Yicai couldn't help but feel a little tricky when he learned how to dodge his fan blades, and the two of them fought hard for a while.

No, I'm not good at martial arts, if I continue like this, I might lose.Soon, Ning Yicai felt that his physical strength was not enough. He came here today with ambitions. Marrying Princess Wanyi is a hundred miles away, no matter for his status or career. He will definitely win today. Seeing that Jing Yi was still careful with the folding fan in his hand, Ning Yi rolled his eyes, and suddenly pretended to be weak and staggered, and then a large empty door appeared in front of him.

After all, Jing Yi was a little less experienced in Jiang Hu, so he immediately showed joy, and did not suspect fraud, and swung his broken sword towards Ning Yicai's empty door.

A good opportunity, this is the moment Ning Yi was waiting for, when Jing Yi got close, the wrist of the hand holding the folding fan turned in an arc, and the fan blade cut towards Jing Yi's forearm impartially.

Since you can continue to compete while holding a broken sword, I will hurt your hand so that you can no longer hold the sword, Ning Yi's eyes flashed coldly, and the speed was a little faster.

"Oops!" At this time, Jing Yi discovered Ning Yicai's plan, but it was too late to get away from it now, he gritted his teeth, and simply kept doing nothing, with an attitude of hurting both sides, the broken knife in his hand The sword slammed into Ning Yicai's chest relentlessly.

"Admit defeat!" Ning Yi let out a low laugh, and at the same time as the fan blades moved towards Jing Yi's forearm, he activated the mechanism hidden in the fan bone.

There was a click, the sound was small and crisp, it was the sound when the mechanism was activated, Ning Yi was full of confidence, and he was waiting for the appearance of Jing Yi's arm hurting and throwing away the wooden sword in his hand, but in an instant he sensed something was wrong, the mechanism was clear It has been activated, but nothing popped out from the fan bone!

But at this time, Jing Yi's broken sword was already very close to his chest. With Jing Yi's voice of "You lost" and Ning Yicai's unbelievable eyes, the broken sword slammed into his chest , This blow was so powerful that even if it was impossible for the wooden sword to pass through the chest, it knocked Ning Yicai until he spit out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards.

"Okay!" Seeing Ning Yicai's ugly loss, Ning Zhongkun couldn't help but patted his thigh heavily.

Ning Huayang stood up abruptly, rushed out to help Ning Yicai who was on the ground, and after carefully inspecting his injuries, he glared at Jing Yi and said, "What kind of enmity is there between Mr. Jing and Yicai, that they want to hit him so hard! "

"Bah! You're really shameless when you say that!" Ning Yicai was almost defeated by Ning Yicai's hidden weapon, and Jing Yi was also furious, and the heavy and calm appearance he had been trying to put on from the beginning until now was also broken. Pointing at the tip of Ning Huayang's nose, he cursed: "Why don't you first ask what kind of tricks this young master of yours has played to hide hidden weapons in his fan. Why should I show mercy to such an unscrupulous person!"

The people around heard that Ning Yicai actually hid a hidden weapon in the fan, and there was a lot of discussion.

Ning Huayang's face was very embarrassed, and he also noticed the displeased gaze cast by the emperor, and immediately shut up obediently, helped Ning Yicai to pick up the folding fan again and slumped down.

"Father, I shouldn't have lost, but the mechanism of the fan suddenly failed..." Ning Yicai was leaning on Ning Huayang, dressed roughly, his pale face full of doubts.

"It doesn't work?" Ning Huayang was also very surprised. The reason why he had confidence in Ning Yicai was because he used the mechanism on the fan as his trump card, "That mechanism was obviously newly made by a skilled craftsman, how could it be so broken?" So fast, could it be that those craftsmen are cutting corners?"

"Maybe it was just an accident." Ning Lie interjected at this moment: "Brother is injured, it's better not to get angry and rest at ease."

"That's right, Mr. Jing really doesn't know the severity of his actions. If something goes wrong with you, I will definitely fight with Duke Jing's mansion forever." Ning Huayang took out some golden sores from his bosom just in case. The medicine was fed to Ning Yi with water. Seeing that the two of them didn't need him for a while, Ning Lie faintly showed a subtle sneer, sat upright again, and continued to enjoy the competition in the arena.

After Ning Yicai, no one played for a while. Seeing this, the emperor thought that Jing Yi had won, and laughed loudly: "Okay, okay, it's really a hero born a boy. Back then, Jing Guogong was a hero in the army. Now The son is also so outstanding, it really is a tiger father without dog son!"

Jing Yi blushed because of the emperor's praise, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee to salute. The emperor glanced sideways at the eldest princess, and saw that the eldest princess nodded in satisfaction. Princess Wanyi spoke about the marriage gift, but the words came down to her throat, and she was suddenly interrupted by a long burst of laughter, "Jing Shizi is very skilled, would you like to learn from me?"

The voice was clear and clear with a heroic air, and it was long and straight. It could be heard that the speaker had some inner strength. For a moment, many people turned their eyes to the source of the voice, and saw the corridor not far away. There are three figures walking slowly.

Walking in the front is an old man with thick eyebrows and long beard. The old man has white beard and hair, but he walks vigorously. It can be seen that he must have been a fierce general when he was young.The old man was followed by a middle-aged woman. The woman had plain makeup and simple clothes. She had high cheekbones and a pair of eyes that looked calm and calm, as if she was not interested in anything. As for the woman, there was a group of A young man in a white robe, tall and tall, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, fair skin, and an even more handsome face. His long black hair was simply tied into a ponytail behind his head, swaying with his steps, It looks very chic.

It was this young man who spoke just now. After seeing the young man's appearance clearly, the civil servants present looked puzzled, but the generals all stood up and greeted politely.Ning Yuan originally heard the voice familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while, but when he saw the appearance of the woman next to the old man, he immediately understood it, so that he saw the young man's face clearly and glanced at it again. With a stiff expression on Jing Yi's face, he couldn't help shaking his head.

"It's really lively. In addition to Jing Shizi, the other hero of the army, General Zhao, is also here." Xie Changqing said in Ning Yuan's ear, "Now there is a good show."

"So that young man in white is one of those two heroes in the army that Brother Xie just mentioned?" Ning Yuan turned his head and asked.

"I also worked as a treasury historian in the Imperial Academy. I only found out after reading the recent military establishment documents in my free time. That General Zhao is the grandson of the old General Zhao in the capital. He was originally sponsored by the old General Zhao. The army was only a centurion at the beginning, but this man is good at strategy and quick at practicing martial arts. Therefore, many civil servants do not recognize him, and this seems to be the first time he has returned to Beijing since he became a partial general."

Ning Yuan rubbed his nose, not knowing what to say for a while, originally he wanted to tell Xie Changqing about his relationship with the young man in white, but now he heard what Xie Changqing said, he was also from the Marquis of Wu'an. One is already a general, and the other has won the Juren and ended up being unable to refer for life in the end. It is really embarrassing and embarrassing to talk about.

He turned his eyes to the young man again. Originally, he only heard rumors that Ning Mo changed his surname after returning to his mother's house with the second wife, but unexpectedly it was true. When he was "Ning Mo'er" in the past, it was very easy to dress up as a woman. Slim and beautiful, now that he has changed back into men's clothes, except that his facial features are still marked, he can't find the obsequiousness he deliberately pretended before, but he is really a heroic young general.

The old General Zhao, who came late over there, took the Zhao family to salute the emperor and sat down, but Zhao Mo walked straight into the venue, with his hands behind his back, and raised his eyebrows at Jing Yi, "How dare you, Mr. Jing, compare with me?" Pass?"

"Why are you here?" Jing Yi said firmly.

"I haven't seen my mother for a long time, so I went back to Beijing to visit my mother and grandparents. I heard that today is the coming-of-age ceremony of His Highness the Sixth Highness, so I followed along. I wanted to see the world, but I didn't want to bump into such fun things as martial arts competitions. Naturally. There is no reason not to participate." Zhao Mo spoke very simply, "Of course, if Jing Shizi doesn't want to fight with me, I have no problem voluntarily admitting defeat."

"You really are a rascal!" Jing Yi shook his wrist, as if remembering something, his face suddenly turned red, "You did it on purpose!"

Then Zhao Mo only raised his eyebrows and didn't speak.

Jing Yi snorted, and knew that it was useless to talk too much. They had been fighting in the army for a long time. Giving up, he drank a drink to embolden himself, he took a step forward, and took the initiative to raise his sword.

Ning Yuan became interested, wanting to see what skills Zhao Mo had developed, and to be able to confront Jing Yi a few times, but soon, his face full of interest turned into a wry smile and shaking his head.

One move, just one move, Zhao Mo moved very quickly, he didn't even take the weapon, Jing Yi only felt a flash in front of his eyes, and the wooden sword in his hand disappeared, and when he regained consciousness, Zhao Mo had already appeared behind him , was taking the wooden sword from Jing Yi's hand, and was putting it on his neck.

"You lost." The three clean and decisive words made Jing Yi's face turn pale.

This competition can be said to be the competition that started the fastest and ended the fastest since the emperor said that he would enforce the drinking order. It seemed that the winner was already determined after drinking a glass of wine, and the big guy hadn't even had time to issue the drinking order. Note, Jing Guogong's son, who was still invincible before and won consecutive victories, has become the defeat of others.

"General Zhao, you really have a good grandson." Seeing Jing Yi winning, the emperor was about to follow along, but Zhao Mo suddenly appeared, and he was stuck there for a while, but he didn't know what to say. , only exclaimed with a haha, while continuing to look sideways at the eldest princess.

Seeing the eldest princess shaking his head slightly at him with a solemn expression, the emperor's eyes darkened, and he suddenly felt that he had made a wrong decision.

They agreed that they would choose a good son-in-law for Princess Wanyi through a martial arts competition. It was not without reason, but obviously this trick was not very successful. The emperor always felt that as long as he was a nobleman in Huajing City, as long as he had good skills and good conduct , are suitable for referring to Princess Wanyi as her husband-in-law, but he missed Zhao Mo.

Zhao Mo, a young general, is impeccable in appearance and ability, but what can be faulted is his background.

Although he is now the son of the only daughter of the veteran General Zhao, the only heir to the General's Mansion, his background is not low, but anyone with some influence can find out that Zhao Mo used to be in the Ning Mansion of Jiangzhou That experience led him to abandon his Ning family surname and change his surname to Zhao. Although there should be nothing wrong with him, but with such experience and history, he is definitely not suitable to be the quick son-in-law of the princess.

After all, as the princess, if someone talks about the princess's husband being a monster disguised as a woman in the future, what will happen.

Especially now that the Eldest Princess has clearly expressed her opposition. It seems that the matter of finding a husband-in-law for Monarch Wanyi can only be discussed later. If it is impossible, Jing Guogong will be invited to the palace. Forget about the marriage, since Jing Yi jumped out today and said that he was going to have a competition, he figured it out after thinking about it, he won't run away with oil on his feet.

Seeing the emperor, everyone at the scene just laughed and took the matter away. They didn't mean to mention marriage at all. Those who understood the inner cause showed a clear expression, and those who didn't understand the inner cause only thought that the emperor suddenly changed his mind. He breathed a sigh of relief, at least it proved that they still had a chance to marry Princess Wanyi in the future.

The drinking order ended in this almost cold atmosphere, followed by singing and dancing as usual. Seeing that Xie Changqing was drinking vigorously alone, Ning Yuan quietly got up, left the stage very unobtrusively, and went to the quiet place outside in the garden.

After walking two steps, he suddenly noticed that someone was following him, and the sound of footsteps sounded very familiar, so he couldn't help but turn around and said, "Why are you following me?"

Seeing that he had been discovered, Hu Yanyuanchen appeared in front of him, but pretended to be innocent, "I didn't follow you, but I just happened to walk the same way with you, let alone you want to go to the theater, but It's really unreasonable to leave me alone."

Ning Yuan's face froze, and seeing that he couldn't answer, Huyan Yuanchen showed a smug smile on his face, "Those two people are walking in this direction all the way, don't hurry up, and be careful not to lose them."

After speaking, he walked forward on his own.

Ning Yuan stroked his forehead lightly, and suddenly felt that he didn't really understand Huyan Yuanchen - when did he become such a gossip?

The Sixth Prince's Mansion was originally the Shu family's natal family, and it already occupied a huge area. After the renovation, Sikong Xu abruptly expanded the area to the outside, and built an extremely luxurious garden, rockery, pavilions and pavilions in the backyard. The waterside pavilion is comparable in size to the royal palace. Of course, the size of the place has its advantages and disadvantages. Although it can show the grandeur and wealth of the host's family, when there are not so many servants, walking on the complicated path can make you feel awkward. It makes people feel desolate and secluded.

"I lost my follower." Standing in front of a three-way intersection, Ning Yuan looked around, unable to determine the direction, "Even if those two guys have something secret to say, just find a quiet place, why hide it?" to such a deserted place."

"With Jing Yi's personality, he wouldn't hide in such a place. It's probably thanks to your elder brother." Compared with Ning Yuan, Huyan Yuanchen obviously has much more experience in the tail-line, and I don't know why. It wasn't that he had followed Ning Yuan quietly too many times before. He bent down, put his ear on the stone pavement, listened quietly, then got up and took Ning Yuan's hand, and chose a way to go, "This way .”

Ning Yuan was inexplicably ashamed when his hand was pulled in a hurry. In fact, he really liked the feeling of Huyan Yuanchen's arm, which was warm and powerful. As he walked, he felt the rough skin on the other's palm, and the surrounding black paint The environment of lacquer made Ning Yuan feel a little imaginative for a moment. He recalled some embarrassing scenes in the private room of the teahouse in his mind. Because Huyan Yuanchen had no experience, they could do things with each other's hands except for the last step. Almost all of them have been done by hand, and he clearly remembers Huyan Yuanchen's stunned expression when he saw the mess on his fingertips after he couldn't help venting in his hands, as if seeing him for the first time. Seeing such a scene, I lost all concentration, as if I was frightened stupid.

"Pfft." Although it was a very embarrassing scene, Ning Yuan couldn't help laughing when he thought of Huyan Yuanchen's expression at that time.

"Shut up!" As a result, he was only halfway through his laughter when Huyan Yuanchen covered the wine cup with one hand, and at the same time his body tilted, and the whole person was hugged by Huyan Yuanchen and quickly nestled into the bed by the side of the road. Grass.

"Who is there?" He pulled away Huyan Yuanchen's hand that was covering himself, and whispered.

Huyan Yuanchen raised a finger and gave him a silent expression, then pointed to his ear, signaling Ning Yuan to listen carefully.

Ning Yuan sank his mind, and after a while, he really heard something, like someone was panting quickly, but his mouth seemed to be covered, and he could only hear a very small muffled sound, and he couldn't pay attention if he didn't concentrate. arrive.

Both of them had internal skills, and they both locked on the direction of the sound, which came from a gazebo not far from the grass.

But looking from this direction, there was no one in the gazebo.

They moved cautiously towards the gazebo. Although there was no one in the gazebo, because the gazebo was built on a rockery by the bank of a pond, the sound came from the other side of the rockery.

Because they didn't know what was going on, and in order not to startle the snake, Ning Yuan and Huyan Yuanchen used the grass to cover up their figures and quietly moved to the vicinity of the rockery. When they got to the place where they could clearly see the source of the sound, they took a closer look. , but they both froze immediately.

On the other side of the rockery, there was an open space due to a depression. In the open space, Jing Yi was lying on his back, and Zhao Mo was lying on top of him. Both of them had their upper body intact, but their lower body was completely naked. Jing Yi's legs were still covered by Zhao Mo. Carrying it on the shoulders, the two of them followed each other, doing things that any grown man can understand, and the voice Ning Yuan heard before came from Jing Yi's mouth.

He bit his fist hard, his expression couldn't tell whether it was pain or pleasure at all, only the flush on his cheeks was particularly obvious under the moonlight.
