"Father, how good is brother Huai's sword dance?" It was still Mingda who coquettishly walked from his seat to Minghuang's side, pulling his father's cuff to act coquettishly.

Only then did Emperor Ming rejoice, and said: "After Da Niang, the number one sword weapon is your brother Huai."

"Then Daddy will get a great reward." Mingda smiled innocently, but didn't mention Princess Gucheng at all.Emperor Ming looked at Lang Huai, and he liked this young man more and more in his heart, but he had to watch more for the experience he should have.

"After the new year, the Tubo envoys will come to Chang'an." Ming Huang said casually: "Lang Huai, you have been in Anxi for a long time and are familiar with them, so I will reward you as a chief envoy so that you can do things well."

Lang Huai raised his eyebrows slightly, and replied respectfully: "My minister obeys the order."

At the end of the banquet, only Gucheng looked resentful, but was dragged away by Li Qianqiang.

"Brother, I really don't know what you think. How much face do I give her, I accompany the song myself, and I don't even say thank you." Gu Cheng lost his temper, and Li Qian could only apologize.

"Good sister, keep quiet!" Li Qian frowned, and waited until there were no more people around him, and then explained in a low voice: "Father now values ​​Lang Huai so clearly. The matter of the Siyi Pavilion is casually handled on weekdays." Can a general take over? What's more, her temper and talent are really the best in Chang'an City. This is the only son of Duke Mu, how noble is your status when you marry?"

"However, brother is not as vain as it is serious. Tell me honestly today that you really don't mean anything to her? If not, brother will never mention this matter again, and will not pave the way." Li Qian vowed, looking at My sister's expression gradually changed, her cheeks were still blushing, and she was extremely proud.

"I just feel that such a cold person is too boring." Of course, Li Qian understood what she meant, and said, "My sister doesn't understand men, my brother told you..."

Now that he has returned to the Hunting Palace, he naturally lives here.Lang Huai put on light armor and led the way in front of Ming Da.

"Brother Huai, I'll play the music some other day, and you can dance for me again, okay?" Knowing the girl's heart, she can say whatever she wants, regardless of the fact that it's an act of entertainment. For Lang Huai's status, Quite wrong.

"Mingda, Lang Huai's sword is for murder, not for show." Li Yu knew what she meant, and apologized for his sister: "I made things difficult for you today, who would have thought that fourth brother would be so blatant."

"It's okay," Lang Huai said in a muffled voice, unable to hear any emotion or anger, "I'm a subject. Your Majesty wants to, so naturally I can't refuse." As he walked, he arrived at Li Yu's residence first.

"Hey, don't worry, the fourth brother has a good plan, but how can the father agree." When parting, Li Yu even comforted her.

After walking two steps, Lang Huai turned around and said, "Do you want to learn swordsmanship?"

Li Mingda was overwhelmed with surprise, his brows and eyes were full of undisguised joy: "Can I learn?"

Lang Huai slowed down and only asked, "Do you want to learn?"

"That's natural."

"Then I will return to Chang'an in Kaichun, and I will teach you on behalf of the master." Lang Huai said with a smile: "Your figure is light and leaping, so it is suitable for practicing this sword technique. It is best to use it to strengthen your body."

"Can the Gongsun family agree?" You must know that the concept of family status is extremely important in the Jianghu, so Mingda asked this question.

"Master said when he taught me that the most regretful thing in her life is that she didn't find a good seedling who can really pass on the mantle." Lang Huai thought of those years of martial arts practice, and a smile crawled on the corner of his lips, which made Cai Cai unhappy The smoke cleared.

"Brother Huai, don't you count?" Ming Da was curious, just now that Lang Huai had an amazing sword weapon, Ming Da was really envious.

Lang Huai looked at her and explained with a smile: "Master said that I was destined to fight on the battlefield. I can't comprehend the aura of spirituality in the sword. She once told me that if you meet a suitable child, And if you are willing to practice, you can teach it on her behalf."

Lang Huai stood still, looking at her bright eyes, he couldn't help feeling a warm current in his heart. "Do you want to learn?" She felt that there was a trace of uneasiness in her voice.

"Of course!" After Mingda finished his answer, he bounced forward, turned around again, and said with a smile, "Brother Huai, I really want to go back to Chang'an as soon as possible!"

Everything around is dark, the fire fox in the girl's arms is sleeping peacefully, and the scarlet cloak is against her cheeks, this scene will always be engraved in Lang's heart, and after years, it will remain fresh forever.It wasn't until she set off again to meet the appointment and rushed to Yangguan that the thought about Mingda first appeared in front of her eyes, and it was also at this time.

The moment his heart was pierced by the sharp sword, Lang Huai looked down subconsciously, and saw his own blood overflowing, dazzling red.All the memories rushed in, the red sandalwood plaque in his heart seemed to be shattered and rubbed into his heart.

If I break my promise, can you forgive me?

The last picture is this year, red clothes and white snow, the world is vast, and Chang'an.

Mingda naturally returned to the backyard, ready to take a shower and fall asleep.Lang Huai couldn't. After the arrangements were made, she called Tao Jun and asked in a low voice, "How is it?"

"The king of Shu these two days used the reason that there were few birds and beasts in the place where he went, explaining that he is at the bottom of the ranking." Tao Jun looked around, and lowered his voice: "But there is no change at all in King Huai's place."

The fourth child and the sixth child always wear a pair of trousers, but this matter is so abnormal, Lang Huai can only detect the abnormality, but can't think of any changes.

If it was just Li Jin, Lang Huai would not be afraid.Li Jin is honest and straightforward, not as much as Li Qian.Lang Huai paced back and forth, clasping his fingers on the scabbard, rattling.

"Master, does the King of Shu have such thoughts?" Tao Jun pointed to Emperor Ming's bedroom, with fear in his words.

"He doesn't have the guts." Lang Huai shook his head, no matter how prestige Ming Emperor had in the army, Li Jin couldn't influence him.Want to assassinate?Unless he can kill all his brothers at the same time.

Since he couldn't think of it, Lang Huai naturally didn't think about it. "You keep an eye on people, and report back immediately when the situation arises, so there must be no mistakes." In today's plan, it is always good to respond to all changes with the same.

After finishing the business, Tao Jun smiled and said, "Master, you don't like Princess Gucheng, do you?"

Lang Huai looked at him amusedly, and said, "How is it possible?"

"The little one can rest assured." Tao Jun thought simply, Princess Gucheng is recognized as domineering, if she enters the mansion, how hard will it be to serve her?

"What's the point of worrying about this all day long." Lang Huai scolded, and looked at the defense of the entire other courtyard before returning to his corridor room, changing clothes, washing up, and getting ready to rest.

The ugly time passed, Lang Huai stood up, got up from the simple bed, and listened carefully.

Someone stepped lightly on the eaves.

Lang Huai lifted Chun Jun, and went out through the open window without a sound.Tao Jun was standing outside, seeing his head shaking, he was about to fall asleep, Lang Huai held back his smile, patted him lightly to wake him up, and made a gesture.

After fighting for five years, how can the tacit understanding between Lang Huai and Tao Jun be compared with the guards of the Imperial Forest Army?He immediately made a clear meaning, turned around and disappeared into the night.

Lang Huai took advantage of the darkness of the corridor and quickly moved in.Except for a few maids, there was no one else in the small courtyard.At this time, they all sat down against the pillars and fell asleep misty.

Lang Huai heard that the man was trying to open the window with all his strength, so he didn't dare to delay any longer, stretched out his hand and pushed it to make sure that the door of Mingda's house was not locked, so he felt relieved.After waiting for a while, there was only a "click", Lang Huai muttered twice, and pushed the door open, Chunjun's sword pointed directly at the assassin's neck.

The person who came obviously didn't expect to be discovered, but fortunately, he was also a master, and his reaction was extremely fast.He should change his tactics first and use offense as defense.Lang Huai didn't dare to be careless, for fear of hurting Mingda in some accident, besides, it was really inappropriate for two men to stay in her boudoir.

Relying on the sharpness of the Chun Jun sword, she secretly used her strength to cut off the assassin's weapon with one sword. The sword moved lightly, but it was a cover, and subdued the assassin with only three moves.

Before he could speak, Lang Huai raised his elbow and knocked him out.Squeezing the assassin's jaw open, it was indeed poisonous.

With such a big movement, Mingda woke up early.Fortunately, she was calm and did not yell.Lang Huai untied the belt of his outer robe, and while tying him up, comforted him, "Don't be afraid, it's all right."

These four simple words calmed Mingda's beating heart.At this time Li'er also woke up, but she was taken aback. She wanted to light the lamp, but Lang Huai stopped her.Lang Huai patched the back of the assassin's head twice, and threw it on the ground at will.

"Li'er, go to the door and wait for Tao Jun." Lang Huai sat outside and said in a low voice, "I'll watch here, don't worry."

Mingda had already put on his long coat and was sitting on the bed.Some inexplicable fear came up, and he couldn't help saying: "Brother Huai, come in."

Hearing this, Lang Huai heard her uneasiness, so he had no choice but to let go of those worries, went over with his sword in hand, and simply sat by the bed.

"How could there be an assassin?" In the darkness, Ming Da leaned into her, leaning on Lang Huai's shoulder as he did in childhood: "Who would want to kill me?"

Lang Huai remained silent. She believed that this smart girl knew such an obvious answer.Huai Wang Li Qian, you have really tried your best to strengthen the city.Lang Huai cursed secretly in his heart, but he had no choice but to comfort him: "It's okay, with me here, I won't let you lose a single hair."

But jue Mingda's thin body hugged his right arm, Lang Huai had no time to think, he had already pulled out, and pulled the girl into his arms.Her hair smelled of flowers after bathing, and she patted Mingda's back lightly with her rough hands, but she had already forgotten that such a move was not only abrupt, but also extremely dangerous.

Lang Huai's neckline was loose, exuding a faint sandalwood fragrance.Fortunately, her corset was tightly tied, Mingda leaned on her chest, and didn't notice it.She was full of nervousness and shyness when she was getting close to a man for the first time, but she couldn't help wrapping her arms around Lang Huai's waist.

"Sister Gucheng seems to like you a little bit." For some reason, Mingda said this sentence.

"I don't like her." Lang Huai blurted out without thinking.

"Then you, then you are happy..." Mingda didn't finish speaking, only heard the knock on the door.Lang Huai hurriedly stood up, cleared his throat, and said, "Come in."

"My lord, the four members of the party, except two of them committed suicide by taking poison, the others were captured and kept in the corridor." Tao Jun followed Li'er in, and Lang Huai then ordered to hold the lamp.

Mingda's face was flushed, he stepped on his shoes, and said in a low voice: "Although he was caught alive, he shouldn't be able to ask any questions."

Lang Huaiqiang calmed down and nodded in agreement: "That's right. Since they dared to come, they must hold back. But I still have to ask, I'm always a bit unwilling not to ask." She turned around and kicked the assassin on the ground.With that kick in the heart, the man immediately curled up, but also woke up.

"Who sent it?" Lang Huai didn't want to talk nonsense, so he cut straight to the point.

"Skills are not as good as people, just kill them." The man wanted to resist, but Lang Huai was not so impatient.The means in the military are not inferior to those prisons in Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment.Lang Huai picked up the assassin's dagger, deliberately let Tao Jun block Mingda's sight, and broke the assassin's hamstring.

After screaming, Lang Huai said fiercely: "I don't want to listen to your nonsense, and I will give you a good time if I say it. Otherwise, don't blame the general for being ruthless!"

"Master..." Tao Jun was a little apprehensive, after all, he was still in Mingda's room, so doing this was really disrespectful.

"I don't know who the employer is, I'm just here to kill people!" The assassin said sadly, but Lang Huai ignored him, raised his hand and cut his throat: "Then I'll give you a good time."

Even Tao Jun never thought that Lang Huai would kill someone in front of Mingda.Li'er covered her mouth and exclaimed, but Mingda's flushed face suddenly turned pale.

"Carry it out." Lang Huai's voice could not hear any emotion, just now they hugged each other in the dark room, giving her an absolutely dangerous aura.She had to do this, and only by deliberately imprinting on her that she was not a reckless man, could Mingda's feelings emerge.

There were only three people left in the room, Lang Huai didn't care about the blood stained on his hands, turned around and said: "This matter can only be suppressed, if it is reported to His Majesty, I'm afraid it will be bad for everyone if it gets worse."

Mingda nodded, looking at Lang Huai with a calm face.It was only then that she realized that the person in front of her was different from when she was a child—she was the Captain of the Mounted Cavalry who fought on the battlefield and killed countless enemies, not the cold-faced but gentle child.

"Brother Huai, I'm tired, you can deal with it." After Ming Da finished speaking, Lang Huai nodded, and told Li'er twice before leaving.
