Chapter 717

The wind was cold and snow was flying.

In front of the Shenwu Gate.

Li Zhong was wearing old and faded eunuch clothes, with white hair, standing alone in the wind and snow, like a stone sculpture.

His head, shoulders, and clothes were covered with white snow.

The gate guards and soldiers behind him looked at him with suspicion.

Although these young guards and soldiers did not know him, as warriors, they could clearly feel the difference of this old eunuch.

He stood there, without any warrior wind around him, and without any protective gas shield to isolate the wind and snow outside. He looked thin and old, but his figure was as solid as a rock, without even the slightest tremor.

Anyone, including warriors, would tremble a little no matter how they stood as long as their heart beat.

Moreover, he was old and had been standing in the wind and snow for so long.

The warriors' eyesight is very sharp. At such a close distance, they can clearly see any of his movements.

But they didn't see it after several hours.

What made them even more incredible was that in this kind of weather, each of them would exhale a faint white breath from their noses when they breathed, but this old eunuch stood in the wind and snow for so long without exhaling any breath.

All these situations show that this white-haired old eunuch is not simple.

The guards and soldiers did not dare to be careless.

It was not until the princess's sedan chair appeared that they looked condensed and immediately tightened their weapons in their hands to prevent the old eunuch from doing anything terrible.

But what surprised them was that the old eunuch had bent his head and lowered his head the moment he saw the princess's sedan chair. He had no momentum at all, as if an old tree bent by the strong wind would break and fall down immediately, which was quite sympathetic.

The cold wind sobbed.

The white snowflakes flew in the wind, swirling on the ground, refusing to fall into the dust, but they finally struggled and fell down, being crushed into pieces.

The fiery red sedan stopped in front of Li Zhong.

Both sides were silent.

The guards and soldiers at the city gate immediately bowed and saluted.

There was a long silence.

The cold voice of the eldest princess came from the sedan: "Li Zhong, are you waiting for me here?"

Li Zhong lowered his head and said respectfully: "Yes."

The eldest princess said: "What's the matter?"

Li Zhong said respectfully: "After I went back last night, I took a short nap and dreamed of the late emperor. The late emperor told me to take good care of His Highness and His Majesty. So, I came here early in the morning to wait for His Highness. I am just a lowly servant, I can't care about other things, I just want to let the late emperor's Ling looked at the family in harmony and reunion. "

"Your Highness, can you do it?"

There was silence in the sedan chair for a while, and the tone was cold: "I can do it. But I don't know about others."

Li Zhong bowed deeply and said, "As long as Your Highness can do it, I will feel relieved."

After that, he bowed and stepped aside, and said, "Today is New Year's Eve. I hope Your Highness will come back early and have a reunion dinner with the Queen Mother and His Majesty."

No more words were spoken in the sedan chair.

The guards surrounded the sedan chair, stepped on the snow, and went out of the archway.

Li Zhong bowed again and stood in the wind and snow for a while, until the princess' sedan chair went away, and then slowly straightened up.

"Woo--"

The cold wind whistled.

What surprised the guard and the soldiers was that the old eunuch who was standing in the wind and snow just now disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The fiery red sedan chair was particularly eye-catching in the snow.

In the sedan chair, Nangong Huoyue slowly spread her long and straight legs, letting him withdraw from under her skirt, and said indifferently: "He really discovered you a long time ago."

Luo Qingzhou said under the soft couch: "He also discovered it just now?"

Nangong Huoyue said: "Of course."

Luo Qingzhou's heart trembled, and said: "Is the Grandmaster realm so powerful?"

Nangong Huoyue looked far away and said: "When you cultivate to the Grandmaster realm, you will naturally understand. Although the Grandmaster realm and the late stage of the Great Martial Master realm are only one breakthrough away, the skills and strength of the two are worlds apart."

Luo Qingzhou's heart surged immediately, he should be almost there too!

After a pause, he said, "Your Highness, what he said just now should have other meanings, right?"

Nangong Huoyue was silent for a moment, and said lightly, "He is asking me to promise that no matter what happens in the future, don't..."

At this point, she suddenly paused, kicked him with her foot, and said coldly, "There is no inspection ahead, you can come out."

After hearing this, Luo Qingzhou immediately wanted to get out from under the bed, but after thinking about it, he shrank there and did not move, saying, "Your Highness, let's wait until we enter Prince Duan's Mansion, and then I will go directly underground."

The sedan chair is not very big. If he comes out at this time, he can neither sit with her nor stand, but can only squat at her feet...

Besides, where is he looking?

It's already very awkward now. If he goes out and looks into the eyes of this eldest princess, wouldn't it be even more awkward?

At least now the two of them don't have to look at each other, which slightly eases the awkward atmosphere.

Nangong Huoyue moved her long legs from under her skirt, tugged at her red skirt, looked down at him, and said, "Why, you don't want to come out?"

Luo Qingzhou said quickly: "Of course not. It's better to be safe here, so as not to have to get in again if there is an emergency later."

Nangong Huoyue put down her skirt and said coldly: "Whatever you want."

The sedan chair swayed gently and moved forward slowly in the wind and snow.

They left the palace unimpeded and headed towards Prince Duan's Mansion.

When they arrived at Prince Duan's Mansion, Prince Duan had already received the news and was waiting at the door with his family in advance.

Seeing the eldest princess's red sedan chair coming from the alley, Nangong Xiaorui immediately ran over happily and shouted crisply: "Sister Huoyue, what good things did you bring to Xiaorui? If Xiaorui doesn't like it, Don’t want Xiaorui’s Xuantian Jade Girl Shu Chenlu.”

Nangong Huoyue was sitting in the sedan, and just as she was about to speak, Nangong Xiaorui had already run up to her and said excitedly, "Sister Huoyue, Xiaorui also wants to sit in your sedan, is that okay?"

Nangong Huoyue's face stiffened slightly, then she moved her legs to the middle position, pulled open the hem of her skirt, kicked the lower part with her feet, then with a slightly red face, she gently separated the feet and calves of the red skirt.

Luo Qingzhou, who was hiding underneath, immediately understood and quickly got into her red skirt again, holding back his breath.

"Wow!"

Just as he was hiding, the sedan curtain suddenly opened.

Nangong Xiaorui, dressed in the wind and snow, entered the sedan with a cheerful smile.

From behind came Prince Duan's doting scolding: "Xiao Rui, why are you so rude? Your sister Huoyue hasn't agreed yet."

Nangong Huoyue could only say: "Uncle Wang, it's okay, this sedan can seat two people."

Nangong Xiaorui sat directly next to her, twisted her butt, and exclaimed: "It's so soft and comfortable."

Then he stretched out his head, sniffed her body, and said, "Sister Huoyue, you smell so good."

Nangong Huoyue smiled faintly and said, "Are you ready for Morning Dew?"

Nangong Xiaorui tilted her head and said, "So, has Sister Huoyue prepared the gift for Xiaorui?"

Nangong Huoyue said: "Of course I'm ready."

Nangong Xiaorui smiled and said, "Of course Xiaorui is ready."

Prince Duan said with a smile on his face: "It's windy and snowy outside, Huoyue, please come into the house and talk."

Yueying led several guards, surrounded the sedan chair, went up the steps and entered Prince Duan's Mansion.

Then, the sedan chariot was placed in the front yard.

Nangong Xiaorui twisted her buttocks a few more times on the soft bed, then took Nangong Huoyue's hand and said, "Sister Huoyue, let's go, Xiaorui will take you to see something nice. Daddy just brought it back to Xiaorui." .

Nangong Huoyue paused, then gently kicked the fallen man with her feet under the red skirt, telling him that she was leaving.

Luo Qingzhou hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his finger and lightly touched her foot as a response.

The moment his fingers touched his feet, Nangong Huoyue's body suddenly trembled.

Nangong Xiaorui blinked her big eyes and asked in confusion: "Sister Huoyue, what's wrong?"

Nangong Huoyue stood up and said as usual: "It's okay, it seems a little cold outside."

Hearing this, Nangong Xiaorui said with surprise on her face: "Is Sister Huoyue also afraid of the cold? I heard from my father that Sister Huoyue's whole body has been hot since she was born, and she has never been afraid of the cold."

Nangong Huoyue opened the curtain and walked out, saying, "I'm not afraid of the cold, but I can feel the cold."

The two sisters talked and gradually walked away surrounded by Prince Duan and others.

There was soon no sound around the sedan chair.

Luo Qingzhou waited for a while, and then took out the jade rat. Just when he was about to activate his earth-bending skills, a cold voice suddenly came from outside: "There are people following you outside. It's best to leave the city before coming out from the ground." .

Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment and said, "Thank you Miss Yueying."

After a pause, he added: "I didn't mean to offend you last night, but please don't take it to heart."

Yueying held the sword and stood alone in the wind and snow outside. Her eyes moved when she heard this, and when she was about to speak, she said in the sedan, "Farewell."

After saying that, they left the sedan and emptied it.

Yueying was stunned for a while, then walked up the front steps and stood under the eaves, motionless.

Luo Qingzhou used the Jade Rat to quickly enter the underground and began to shuttle quickly out of the city.

He encountered some formations along the way, but he passed through them easily.

When passing through the inner city wall, he found that there were people guarding the ground. He spent some effort and passed through other places.

As for the underground of the outer city, it is naturally unobstructed.

When he left the gate of the outer city, he was very fast. When he was at the ten-mile pavilion outside the city, he came out of the ground.

At this time, night has fallen.

The sky is gray, snowflakes are falling, and there is white everywhere.

He felt relaxed and happy as if he had been reborn.

It's finally out!

Tonight is New Year's Eve. There must be many people waiting for him at home by the Yunwu River.

His figure flashed and he walked out without leaving a trace on the snow.
