After Xiao Rui and Xiao Yan left the palace, they went back to their homes.

When Xiao Rui got into the carriage and returned home, he was reminded by Wu Zhanfa that the carriage of the King of Chu was stopping in front of him as soon as he walked two streets, and he seemed to wait for Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui opened the curtain of the car and looked over, just in time to see King Chu Xiao Yiheng also opened the curtain and waved to him.

There was no other way, as the younger brother Xiao Rui had no choice but to dismount and walk over.

"Second brother, are you looking at the scenery? You really want to be elegant." Xiao Rui came to the carriage and asked, clasping his hands.

Xiao Yiheng didn't get out of the car, and didn't pay attention to Xiao Rui's jokes, but directly pointed out the topic, saying: "In the past, my seventh brother and I didn't move around very often, and we ignored that there is also a talented younger brother. I will take a rest tomorrow, and tonight I will be in There is a banquet in the mansion, I don't know if my brother can do me a favor and go to my mansion to talk about it?"

Xiao Rui already knew that Xiao Yiheng was arrogant, but just sitting in the carriage and talking to him, did he take himself too seriously?

I am also a prince!

"I'm sorry second brother, elder brother has already invited me in advance." Xiao Rui apologized, he didn't blink his eyes when he lied, so he immediately pushed Jin Wang Xiao Lie out.

You fight casually, and I will watch the battle.

Sure enough, Xiao Yiheng's face froze when he heard that the eldest prince took a step ahead of him.

"If that's the case, then that's all." Xiao Yiheng was embarrassed and didn't have the heart to invite him, so he said.

Xiao Rui wanted to disgust him, and said again: "I'm free tomorrow, why don't I visit my second brother?"

Xiao Yiheng was taken aback for a moment, looked at Xiao Rui, then nodded, and said: "Okay, welcome to the seventh brother then."

The topic ended, and the two left separately.

In the carriage, Xiao Rui smiled.

What Xiao Yiheng's intentions were clearly revealed, he performed too well, so he wanted to test himself and even win him over. So Xiao Yiheng's banquet was by no means a good one, and it would not be an exaggeration to say it was a Hongmen banquet. As for why I still agreed to him, it was entirely because I wanted to find out.

How tomorrow's confrontation will be, can only be seen by oneself.

Having said that, the recent system has been pissed, so I don't release any tasks.

Looking at the 90/100 descending value in my mind, I was only 10 points away from descending again, why did I wither?

Oh, so you are such a system!

"Warning, if the host continues to insult the system, it will be punished unexpectedly. For example, a certain part will shrink by one centimeter!"

Xiao Rui immediately shut up, well, it's still strong.

Although it is said that shrinking by one centimeter is far better than others, but after all, the longer the better!

"I'm talking about height!" the system warned.

"I'm talking about height!" Xiao Rui replied.

...

In the evening, Wu Zhanfa saw that Xiao Rui was still practicing, and couldn't help asking: "Your Highness, didn't you say that King Jin invited you to visit the mansion? When are we going to leave?"

Xiao Rui retreated and said with a smile, "I lied to the King of Chu."

Wu Zhanfa was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Your Highness, aren't you afraid that the king of Chu will reveal his secret when he asks you tomorrow?"

"I just said that King Jin invited me, but I didn't agree to go, and I just didn't tell him." Xiao Rui laughed.

Wu Zhanfa gave a thumbs up, admiring the treachery of His Royal Highness.

Xiao Rui wiped his sweat with a towel, and asked, "Battle, how is my current cultivation?"

Wu Zhanfa said with a smile: "Miraculous Doctor Hua has opened up His Highness's bones, and with your hard work, it is no problem to defeat seven to eight brave fighters. If His Highness's saber technique can be further refined, he will be able to enter the second stage." Grade Warrior Realm!"

At the level of a second-rank martial artist, one can defeat at least ten brave soldiers.

"It's too slow, how do you hone your sword skills?" Xiao Rui said.

The corner of Wu Zhanfa's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but said, "Slow? Your Highness, how do you let other warriors live? You have only practiced martial arts for more than three months, which is already amazing!"

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "An extraordinary person will naturally do extraordinary things. I was thinking about entering the second-rank realm before the autumnal equinox."

Wu Zhanfa shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, it's not impossible for His Highness to be very talented. If you want to hone your sword skills, you can't do it simply by practicing sword skills. Now His Highness is extremely proficient in sword skills, even though he has killed people before. , has been stained with blood, and has murderous nature, but it is far from enough. You must go through life and death honing before you can improve in a short time."

Xiao Rui sighed, and said: "You and Wei Guang are bound together, where can I find the training of life and death?"

Wu Zhanfa said in embarrassment: "Your Highness's body, if it gets hurt, how will we bear it?"

Xiao Rui shook his head and didn't force them, so Xiao Rui thought of Zhuge Liuying.

Hey, this bitch dares to take her to practice sword skills by killing bandits, just ask her if she knows! Go as soon as you say, after Xiao Rui took a shower, he immediately went to visit Champion Hou.

The Champion Hou's Mansion is also in the south of the city, so the distance is not far away. In order to keep a low profile, Xiao Rui only took an ordinary carriage to go there.

When I came to Champion Hou's Mansion, I saw a pitch-black stele more than ten feet in front of the Hou's Mansion, with four words engraved on it: Champion the Three Armies Bravely!

This is the feat bestowed upon the champion by Emperor Xia, and everyone who passed the gate had to dismount to show their respect for the champion. The Twelfth Army Marquis of Great Xia, the Champion Marquis, guards the north all the year round, deters the Great Qi State, and guards the five thousand-mile border of the Great Xia State. He is a god of war at the border, so that the Great Qi State does not dare to act rashly.

Xiao Rui dismounted himself and went to knock on the door of the mansion.

After a while, the side door opened, and an old servant came out. Looking at Xiao Rui in ordinary clothes, he asked curiously, "Master, who are you looking for?"

"I'm a friend of Miss Zhuge from your family. Please pass it on and say that Xiao Qirui is asking to see you." Xiao Rui used an alias.

The old servant was a little embarrassed, looked back at the mansion, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Please wait a moment."

After speaking, the old servant hurried to report.

Xiao Rui was puzzled, what happened? It's quite embarrassing to see him?

After a while, the old servant opened the door again, invited Xiao Rui to enter the mansion, and said, "Please, my lord!"

Xiao Rui said thank you, and followed the old servant into the mansion.

The Champion's Mansion is not as good as the Prince's Mansion, only a quarter in size, so Xiao Rui followed the old servant through the front hall, through a garden, around a corridor, and came to a quiet small house.

The old servant said: "My lord, please come in."

Xiao Rui looked at the back of the old servant leaving in a hurry, wondering, what the hell is going on?

He entered the small courtyard, and after scanning for a week, he saw a gazebo in the corner, where a middle-aged Confucian scholar was drinking tea, and there was no sign of Zhuge Liuying.

"His Royal Highness, since you are here, why don't you drink tea in the pavilion?" the middle-aged Confucian scholar said suddenly.

Xiao Rui looked at the middle-aged Confucian scholar, but he didn't know him. Although he was only wearing a blue linen gown, he was elegant. So the middle-aged Confucian scholar in front of him is not only elegant, but also has strong martial arts attainments.

who is this

Xiao Rui was puzzled, but he stepped forward, came to the gazebo and raised his hands to salute, and said: "Excuse me, I don't know how to address you sir?"

The middle-aged Confucian scholar got up to return the salute, and then said with a smile: "Seeing is worth seeing once a hundred times. His Royal Highness King Xian is worthy of his reputation as a virtuous corporal."

"Sir?" Xiao Rui asked again.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar said: "I am Liuying's uncle, Zhuge Yuanba."

Xiao Rui suddenly realized that he had indeed heard that Champion Hou had a younger brother, and it turned out that he was the one in front of him. It's just the name, so domineering.

"So it's Senior Zhuge, I'm bothering you." Xiao Rui cupped his hands again and said.

Zhuge Yuanba stretched out his hand to invite Xiao Rui to sit down, and then said, "It is an honor for the Champion's Mansion to be here with your Highness. I heard that His Highness is here to find Liuying?"

Xiao Rui nodded and asked, "That's right, where is she?"

Zhuge Yuanba pointed to the main room of the house, and said with a smile: "It's in confinement. Her father asked me to watch her and forbid her to go out. As for the reason, I heard that His Highness gave her a bad idea and asked her to form a female barracks." No, she was groping in the direction of the female spy, so she really organized a group of orphan girls and started training."

"Forehead…"

Xiao Rui opened his mouth, did he hit the muzzle of a gun?
