Only senior brother is amazing

After the three of them had breakfast, they rushed towards the opposite direction of Fengyu Mountain without stopping.

Shen Xiu was raised with a golden spoon in her mouth, drank fine nectar and jade liquid, and was properly raised. She had never walked the mountain road in person.Especially ones with a high degree of difficulty like Fengyu Mountain.About one-fifth of the way, I screamed desperately that my feet hurt.During the interval, I took off my shoes and saw that there were several big blisters on the soles of my feet.

Because of Shen Xiu, the three of them only reached the halfway up the mountain at noon, and He Bei's patience was also worn out.

Shen Xiu was so tired that her legs were weak, her eyes were dim, and she was trembling all over. She sat down on the stone pier at the gate of the post station and refused to get up.

Facing the warm winter sun at noon, He Bei was covered with a thin layer of sweat. He took off his outer robe again and again, while teasing Shen Xiu: "Boss Shen, your physical strength is not good enough."

Shen Xiu's face showed bitterness, and she really felt humiliated in her heart: "I'm getting older, and I'm not as agile as you young people."

He Bei snorted coldly, unable to deny it.

After letting Shen Xiu rest for half an hour, He Bei said impatiently: "It's almost there? Boss Shen."

Shen Xiu's face was full of worry: "Well... it should be almost the same."

He Bei whispered two words: "Pretentious."

Xie Juan understood that Shen Xiu was not a martial artist, so it was really hard for her to bear the journey.He cared: "Boss Shen, why don't we change our shoes. Your shoes are too thin and not suitable for mountain climbing."

After hearing these words, Shen Xiu was a little moved, he hesitated and said: "This is not good."

Xie Juan looked softer, and said: "It's okay, for me, the thinner soles don't have any effect."

Shen Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, with a grateful face: "Thank you, Xiaoxie..."

When Xie Juan was about to take off his shoes, He Bei held his arm and stopped him abruptly.He Bei frowned and began to take off his shoes: "Let's change with him, my size should be about the same as his."

There was a smile in Shen Xiu's eyes, and she knew He Bei's thoughts well.

After changing the shoes, He Bei found that the size was not too bad.He bent down to tie the shoelaces made of shark beads, looked up and smiled: "Boss Shen, your shoes are really fancy but not useful."

Shen Xiu looked at He Bei, the luxurious boots inlaid with gold and jade and embroidered with dragon patterns were worn on his feet, and there was no sense of disobedience.

He Bei looked at the road ahead, and frowned: "Okay, let's go on, it would be nice to be able to return to the village before dark."

"En." Shen Xiu stood up slowly while supporting his waist. Even though his legs were still sore, he thought optimistically that this was quite a meaningful experience for life.Walking through places by myself, the impression left by the scenery along the way is much more profound than when passing by in a soft sedan chair.

Every time Shen Xiu walked through a special scene, she would freeze it in her mind with her heart, thinking that she must paint these mountains and waters by hand when she had time.

Shen Xiu found that the scenery became more and more beautiful as she went to the top of the mountain, so she felt less tired.

As the evening approached, the glow in the sky was like a beautiful brocade woven in the sky, and the floating clouds were misty, stained with a thin layer of purplish red, which made people intoxicated.Across hundreds of floors of jade steps covered with gorgeous sunset light, he saw a tall old tree covered with fresh snow from a distance.

Countless red ribbons hung on the ancient trees are swaying in the north wind, which is particularly conspicuous.

Shen Xiu's eyes were polished by the scenery in front of her, and the steps of climbing the stairs seemed to be less heavy.

When he finally came to the stone tablet engraved with the words "Fengyu Jianzhuang", he let out a long breath.

"Brother, drink some water." He Bei handed the water bottle heavy at his waist to Xie Juan.

Xie Juan took the water, unscrewed the lid of the pot, took a few sips in a gentle manner, and moistened his throat.

He Bei looked at the lights gradually lighting up in Jianzhuang, and said, "It's just in time for dinner."

Shen Xiu's stomach growled a few times very cooperatively, and she smiled awkwardly: "It's true that I'm a little hungry."

He Bei raised his eyebrows lightly: "I feel wronged, Boss Shen wants to eat simple meals with us."

Shen Xiu said contentedly at this moment: "It's fine to have a stutter."

At this moment, the soft white snow on the ancient tree followed a violent tremor, falling down and falling on He Bei, Xie Juan and Shen Xiu.

He Bei brushed the snowflakes all over his head, and turned to look at the figure behind the old tree.After seeing who the attacker was, he shouted: "Niannian! Find a beating!"

Qi Nian happily emerged half of his head from behind the tree trunk, his face was flushed by the cold wind, his black eyes were bright, and there were two cute dimples when he smiled.

He Bei's heart softened.He bent down and picked up a handful of snow from the ground, formed a round ball in his palm, and threw it towards Qi Nian.

Qi Nian turned sideways and said with a smile, "Brother, go out to play and don't take me with you! I hold grudges!"

He Bei said solemnly: "Go out to play? Your senior brother and I are going down the mountain to do business, why go out to play."

Qi Nian curled his lips, apparently not believing it: "Liar, what's the business?"

He Bei made up random nonsense: "Go to Songzhou City to pick up a distant cousin of mine. He came to live in our Jianzhuang for a few days. There was a fire in my cousin's house, and he lost everything overnight. Zhuang works as a handyman to earn some money." He Bei said, pushing Shen Xiu in front of him with a smile on his face.

Shen Xiu shook her head fiercely: "Nephew, that's not what you told me at the foot of the mountain. You said that you would take me to Jianzhuang to enjoy the blessings. How come I want to work as a handyman?"

"Your distant cousin?" Qi Nian looked suspiciously at Shen Xiu from head to toe, rubbed his chin, and said, "When will it be your turn to take care of your relatives?"

"My father is far away in the southwest, so I don't have to take care of it. My uncle used to be very rich. Let's take him in for a few days, and he will be paid in the future." He Bei winked at Qi Nian.

After Qi Nian understood, he immediately went forward and held Shen Xiu's hands, with an earnest expression on his face: "Uncle, are you tired? My name is Qi Nian, and I am He Bei's junior brother. The uncle of the senior brother is my uncle. Come to our Jianzhuang You're welcome, just treat it as your own home. Tell me anything."

Qi Nian saw that Shen Xiu's luxurious attire, which was full of dust and dirt, was indeed not what ordinary people could wear.

Shen Xiu was amused by Qi Nian: "Okay, then I will not be polite. When my uncle makes a comeback in the future, I will definitely benefit from you."

Qi Nian stared intently at the excellent jade lock on Shen Xiu's chest, and smiled brightly: "Uncle, talking about those things will make you feel bad."

He Bei watched Qi Nian fully display his flattering skills, and couldn't help but sneered: "Niannian, don't gossip about uncle, he doesn't want to be disturbed for the time being."

Qi Nian nodded vigorously to express his understanding.

Xie Juan looked at the sky getting late, and said: "Old Shen...Uncle Shen, I will take you to Lanzhu to rest for a while, change into cleaner clothes, and then go to the dining hall to eat."

"Okay." Shen Xiu straightened her back, and her sluggish spirit suddenly recovered a lot of vitality.

After returning to Lanzhu, Xie Juan found that the lights in Jinglian's room were on, so he decided to take Shen Xiu to see Jinglian first.

Jinglian and Shen Xiu are old acquaintances.

When Jinglian opened the door and saw Shen Xiu who was in a state of distress, she was slightly taken aback.She murmured: "Shen Xiu..."

Shen Xiu parted her lips and gave a stiff smile: "General Lian..."

Xie Juan interrupted the delicate atmosphere between the two: "Master, it's a long story."

Both Jing Lian and Shen Xiu were former members of the Li Kingdom, and they share too many memories in common. Those memories are not good, but a deep confrontation in which you fight for each other and the dark tide surges.

Now everything is different, and Jing Lian couldn't help being covered in a mess of complicated emotions. She sighed and waved to Shen Xiu: "Come in and talk."

—

Xie Juan will tell Jing Lian a complete account of the ins and outs in the future.

Jinglian listened, her expression became more serious.

He opened his mouth and cursed directly: "Yu Yingxian, this bastard actually wants to attack my apprentice? Let him come, and he will die if he comes." Jinglian looked at Xie Juan, and her vicious eyes immediately turned into kindness: " The Eldest Princess entrusted you as a teacher, and as a teacher, I will not let anyone hurt you in the slightest."

Xie Juan's heart warmed, but he was also a little surprised: "Master, at the beginning, it was my mother who entrusted me... to you?" Before, Jinglian and him did not make it so clear, he always thought it was Shaoning He didn't intend to take his life into consideration.

"As soon as you were born, the emperor wanted you to disappear forever, and my teacher managed to rescue you... At that time, the battle in Taiziling had just started, and my teacher had to take you south. Although the battlefield was dangerous , but the palace is even more dangerous, Princess Shaoning had no other choice, when she was imprisoned, she tried every means to escape, and wanted to come to Prince Ridge to join my teacher, but it's a pity..." Jing Lian touched Xie Juan's head , comfortingly said: "Your mother loves you, she never wanted to abandon you, it's just that your identity is too sensitive... Fortunately, you survived."

Xie Juan nodded, the tip of his nose was sour.

For this overly sensible child, Jinglian loves him very much, and almost treats him as her own child and raises him up.Before meeting Xie Juan, Jinglian was a person who couldn't even take care of herself.After the battle in Taiziling, the child she desperately saved huddled into a small ball in her arms, neither crying nor fussing, arousing the so-called "maternal love" that should not exist in her heart, and letting her know that she actually Can "feed" a person, a living person.

Later, when He An entrusted He Bei to her, she didn't feel any difficulties or difficulties, and she was even handy with experience.

Jing Lian looked at Shen Xiu sharply: "Boss Shen, I didn't expect your Shen family to be so bold as to take away the coffin key of the eldest princess. Your Shen family hasn't received enough favors? Why can't you eat people without bones?" Leftover." Jing Lian became more and more annoyed as she spoke, her apricot eyes widened, and a layer of rosy annoyance floated on her face.

Shen Xiu innocently explained: "General Lian, my mother gave me the coffin key, and I don't know the specific reason. You also know that when I was young, I was just a dude. I never understood or participated in these power struggles." .”

Jing Lian sneered: "Not to participate? At the beginning, when I promised you to His Royal Highness, I didn't see you refuse, but I was very happy."

Xie Juan's eyes probed: "It turns out that Boss Shen's fiancée is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Only then did he understand why Shen Xiu said that he and his fiancée were somewhat similar.His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is considered his own uncle, which makes sense.

Xie Juan thought that since he had talked about this, he wanted to ask clearly. Some things were not because he pretended not to care, so he didn't want to know..."Master, my father...you know he is who?"

Jinglian's face darkened: "Fuyi, there are some things that you should not know. Your father is just a useless bastard, so don't mention it. He betrayed your mother. He died long ago, so you don't have to worry about it."

Xie Juan didn't ask any more questions.The original words that Jinglian said for the first time were "having an affair with the guard." No matter what, he was an unexpected existence.

"The most important thing right now is that Fuyi's identity must not be known to others." After Jinglian said that, she immediately wrote a letter.The letter was written to He An.

Then he said: "Yu Yingxian comes here as soon as he comes, I'm afraid he won't succeed if I'm really an old lady. I just broke through, and I just need a few practice hands."

Xie Juan was overjoyed from the bottom of his heart: "Master, have you entered the Grandmaster Realm?"

Jinglian smiled and said: "Isn't it a matter of time? It's a bit of a fool to enter after the age of forty." In fact, she was seriously injured in the battle of Taiziling, so she has been hovering in the ninth rank, unable to break through.Resting for ten years can be regarded as making up for the vitality lost before. Now that the mirror is broken, it is too late, but it has also fulfilled her long-term wish, and it can be regarded as death without regret.

Xie Juan's face was full of uncontrollable joy: "Master, you are the first master of Fengyu Jianzhuang in ten years, and you are a role model for the world, and you are a hero."

Jinglian pinched Xie Juan's cheeks, and said dotingly: "Our Fuyi is good at complimenting people."

Then his expression changed again: "Boss Shen, you should avoid the limelight in Lanzhu these days. The forces behind Yu Yingxian must be investigated clearly, but I would like to ask Boss Shen to mobilize more connections."

Shen Xiu nodded: "I will try my best. I can't protect myself now...I'm afraid there will be no peace in the future. Before long, the whole world will know that I hold the coffin key in my hand."

Jinglian's eyes were sharp: "By the way, the coffin key. Boss Shen, how about leaving it to me for safekeeping?" Jinglian's tough tone did not mean any discussion.

Shen Xiu smiled helplessly: "It's not that I won't give it to you. I don't have the key with me now?"

Jinglian raised her brows, "Huh?"

Shen Xiu said helplessly: "Your precious apprentice is keeping it for me, why don't you go with him?"

Xie Juan immediately added an explanation: "Master, I handed it over to Han Chuan for safekeeping last night out of desperation."

To Shen Xiu's surprise, Jing Lian lowered her head and rubbed the center of her brows, and said lightly: "Well, let him hold it first."

Shen Xiu immediately retorted: "Pfft—it's not good to give such an important thing to a junior."

Jinglian said: "There is nothing wrong with it. After all, they have grown up and should bear some responsibilities. It doesn't matter who gets the key."
