Not long after, he was brought into a room filled with all kinds of weapons. There were no less than ten types of swords alone. There were various styles of length, length, weight, weight, and thickness, but none of them had a sharp edge.
He chose a long sword at random, and was taken to another room to wait.
He was not the only one in the room, there were several groups of performers, but everyone was professional, as far as he was dressed or his temperament, he looked like an amateur.
It can't be said that he is an amateur, he is a professional in fighting, but he is a bit amateur in acting.
Groups were invited out, and it took almost an hour for him to turn. He followed the servants out of the room with the unsharp iron sword on his back, and walked around the ridiculously large manor several times before arriving at the gate of the garden.
This is a gathering among women, which is held in a large garden in the open air. There is a large artificial lake in the center of the garden, and several wooden bridges connect the central island. It's an open space, and some clowns are doing acrobatics right now.
Seeing many young women watching the performance with great interest, Ye Chen felt his face getting hot.
He doesn't care about being ashamed. As a descendant, he cares too much about his face. It's hard to get along in each world. The main reason is that he feels bored. With this skill of dancing swords, he can refine that blood pill at home. The pill was injured before. Did not have time to refine.
However, he doesn't have the strength to refuse now. A basic exercise is not invincible. At least in this manor, he feels that there are several masters who are stronger than himself. In order to reduce trouble, he can only be obedient.
Sitting on a rock and waiting for the end of the game, I suddenly heard a clear female voice calling to myself from behind:
"Hey, aren't you the one in the arena? Why are you still here, come with me."
Turning around, she saw a familiar face, it was the pretty maid who gave him Mrs. Mu's handkerchief before, she grabbed him by the hand and walked away, saying as she walked:
"Madam is waiting for you, why are you still here, what's the matter with this sword, Madam is not allowed to bring weapons by her side."
The pretty maid had very little strength, so he didn't dare to use force, so he could only let her pull her away, explaining:
"Didn't Madam invite me to dance the sword for fun?"
The pretty maid froze for a moment, then immediately reacted and said:
"The servant must have made a mistake. Madam invited you to a poetry meeting. You are a guest. How can I let you dance swords?"
Ye Chen: ...
I couldn't help but touch my sweaty forehead, it was an oolong.
But this is a good thing, no need to be surrounded by people.
Following the maid to the small island in the middle of the lake, I saw a group of mandarin ducks and swallows sitting in the pavilion from a distance, and seven or eight beautifully dressed women were chatting in a group. It's Mrs. Mu.
At this time, one of the women just turned around, Ye Chen's eyes lit up with her elegant temperament and charming eyes, just as the woman turned her head to see him, Ye Chen subconsciously blinked at her.
The woman froze for a moment, then covered her mouth with a handkerchief and snickered, the pretty maid behind her urged him to go up to the woman before saying:
"Ma'am, Ye... the young master is here."
"Master Ye?"
A woman in a light yellow palace dress next to her looked up at Ye Chen's height that needed to be looked up at and the figure that held the loose robe tightly, with a look of surprise and confusion on her face.
The surrounding women also covered their mouths and laughed secretly, looking at him for a while, looking at Mrs. Mu for a while, covering their mouths and laughing.
Ye Chen could see the meaning of their snickering, it was nothing more than that he thought he was Mrs. Mu's, he didn't have any interest in explaining, he bowed his hands to them one by one, sat on the stool brought by the pretty maid, wide-eyed Staring at them made them too embarrassed to look at them again.
At this moment, he did know who Madam Mu was, that beautiful woman who was both elegant and charming. To say she was a bit too much, she should be a mature woman.
Chapter 426 Peach Blossom Luck and Peach Blossom Tribulation
Mrs. Mu is a wealthy, powerful and powerful woman, but she is very lonely. From the involuntary echoes in the words of these women around, it can be seen that Ye Chen has been sitting silently beside Mrs. Mu when they chatted, that is, she did not rashly Interrupted, did not eat Hesai nonsense, just sat and listened quietly.
After listening to it for a while, he did have a little understanding of their poem.
Most of them are women in the aristocratic circle of Ningguo, and most of them are married women. However, Mrs. Mu, the initiator of the event, is single and has the highest status. When she is free, Mrs. Mu will launch various activities to call the women in the circle to play , this time it happened to be the night of the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival, so this party named after poetry was held.
It is said to be a poetry meeting, but it is actually a pursuit of elegance. How can they know poetry?
This fact made him a little puzzled, wondering if Mrs. Mu really liked him and wanted him to be the guest of honor?
Do you want to promise or... promise.
He was thinking in his heart, when suddenly a noise came from a distance that caught their attention, Ye Chen sat calmly and heard the sound getting closer and closer, and soon he went to the small island in the middle of the lake, and a hurried and heavy voice approached quickly Before turning around, he felt a wave of anger rushing towards his face.
This anger seemed to be aimed at him.
Ye Chen turned around and saw a middle-aged man in a gorgeous brocade robe behind him. This middle-aged man was a handsome man with white skin like a woman's, and a neatly trimmed goatee with a small section of his chin. Wearing a purple crown on his head, his fingers stretched out and trembled slightly at this time, staring at himself with extremely angry and cannibalistic eyes, and asked Mrs. Mu angrily:
"Who is he and why is he here?"
"Her husband is here?"
Ye Chen looked at Mrs. Mu's beautiful face with a little guilty conscience, a blush appeared on her pretty face, but she didn't panic as imagined, but slowly stretched out her jade arm to him, Ye Chen was a little stunned, and reached out to hold it. The weak and boneless jade hands helped her up.
Mrs. Mu walked in front of the middle-aged man with graceful steps, her sweet and quiet voice was like her elegant demeanor, and she said unhurriedly:
"Whoever this lady invites as a guest, I don't need anyone's permission!"
Her voice was not loud, but there was a peculiar charm in her tone, which seemed to be a kind of firmness that was not allowed to be spoken. The middle-aged man's face became even uglier on the spot, but he didn't dare to turn against her.
Taking a few deep breaths with his chest up and down, his gaze fell on Ye Chen, especially when he saw that he was extremely tall and strong, and he seemed to be holding her white as jade arm, but in fact his palm was too big to hold her arm directly, From the middle-aged man's point of view, it seems that she is lying in his arms, which makes him furious, pointing at Ye Chen and speaking in an extremely cold voice:
"Report your name, this king never kills the unknown!"
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, and was about to answer, but Mrs. Mu got angry, pointing outside and drinking:
"Prince Qi County, this lady doesn't welcome you, please leave!"
Duke Qi's complexion changed, and seeing the deep sadness in Madam Mu's eyes, he put his hands on his chest and said sadly:
"You actually drove me away for another man, don't you know my feelings for you? This is what I have been waiting for you for so many years?"
His tone gradually became colder, and the murderous intent in his eyes gradually became stronger. He looked at Ye Chen with a deadly gaze, squeezed out a sentence from his teeth, and said word by word:
"You are dead!"
"enough!"
Madam Mu suddenly shouted angrily:
"Stop acting, leave here immediately, or don't blame me for being rude."
As soon as she finished speaking, Duke Qi's face changed again, but this time it was not angry, but calm, as it often did, he spread his hands while backing away and said with a smile:
"This king likes it like this, Tieshan!"
He changed the subject and suddenly shouted a person's name, then looked at Ye Chen with dead eyes and said:
"Boy, I know you don't know anything. I'll give you a chance to leave now to save your life. Otherwise, today will be your death day next year."
