Chapter 620: The Younger Sister of the Manor Owner’s Wife
Chapter 620: The Younger Sister of the Manor Owner’s Wife
Nian Susu clicked his tongue and had to remind him, "Qingyu, I am the new disciple of the owner of the manor, not your master. Don't follow me around anymore. Come up."
It was Qin Junyu who asked Qingyu to take her around, but now Qingyu was just following her aimlessly.
Qingyu was stunned for a moment, then said "Oh" and took two big steps forward to be on the same level with her, "Is this ok, young lady?"
She nodded helplessly. Forget it. Qingyu was also a stubborn person. It would be better not to make things difficult for him.
He remembered his mission, thought for a moment, and began to introduce the surrounding scenery and the uses of the palace, more dedicated than a tour guide.
Nian Susu had no interest in the historical background of the ancient building. She listened absentmindedly. When she passed a group of people carrying wooden stakes towards the square, she asked casually, "Qingyu, will tomorrow's new member recruitment meeting be dangerous?"
She was still frightened when she recalled the incident two years ago when Qin Junyu was ambushed by the Wen Linghui at the martial arts competition. Such events where martial arts masters gathered together to show off their skills with swords and guns always resulted in bloodshed.
What if someone attempts to assassinate us again? Wouldn't we be worried again?
Qingyu didn't think too much and answered truthfully, "There are risks, so the master has specially sent more people to protect us in secret today. If we encounter an enemy attack, we can minimize casualties."
We can only minimize casualties, but we cannot avoid them...
Nian Susu's face was gloomy and he let out a long breath.
The more she experienced with Qin Junyu, the more she feared accidents would happen. All uncontrollable factors would make her extremely anxious.
She even wanted Qin Junyu to take her back to the palace right now. As long as they were away from dangerous places, there would be no danger.
Seeing that she was worried, Qingyu finally realized that he had said the wrong thing.
If the master is here, he will definitely say: "Don't worry, I'm here, there will be no danger."
Unfortunately, he is stubborn and inflexible, which makes the Queen very worried.
Qingyu tried to make amends and change the subject: "Miss Nian, how did you become the master's apprentice? Now the brothers in the villa are very interested in you, the little apprentice sister."
"The master has never accepted a disciple. You are the first one, and... you look like you can't lift anything with your hands or carry anything with your shoulders."
"Everyone is wondering whether Madam knows about this." After saying this, Qingyu also showed an expression of watching spectators online.
Nian Susu's mouth twitched. "Although I am weak, I have a good brain. Who says that you must teach martial arts to become a disciple? Can't you also teach the art of strategy?"
"Yes!" Qingyu suddenly realized, "Next time someone asks me, I will answer him like this!"
Nian Susu raised his eyebrows and thought of a good way to dispel the rumor without having to do the legwork himself.
She stared at Qingyu with a sly smile on her face.
This time when Qin Junyu returned to Tianxuan Villa, he only brought Qingyu but not Axuan. The disciples of Tianxuan Villa were curious about her but did not dare to ask Qin Junyu in person, so they could only ask the person closest to him, that is, Qingyu.
She could use Qingyu's mouth to spread her origins and background, so that no one would question her identity in the future.
Nian Susu waved to Qingyu.
Qingyu leaned over and whispered.
"If anyone mentions me or asks you about me in the future, just tell them that I am actually the younger sister of the manor owner's wife, and I followed your manor owner through the back door. Do you understand?"
"Is that it?" Qingyu couldn't believe what he heard.
"that's it."
Appropriate blank space can trigger people's imagination. In this way, there will be countless versions of the story passed down by word of mouth. People don't know which one is true, so they dare not confirm her identity. They can only secretly speculate whether she and Qin Junyu are really just sister and brother-in-law.
Qingyu nodded: "I understand, please rest assured, Madam."
"Tsk...here it comes again." Nian Susu was very disgusted.
-
New member conference.
The sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly. It is a great weather today.
Those who come to Tianxuan Villa to attend the new member reception will be blindfolded when they are a few miles away from Tianxuan Mountain. They will be sent to the foot of Tianxuan Mountain by a special person, and after randomly circling around a few times, they will be taken to the correct passage up the mountain. Then they will climb up Tianxuan Mountain blindfolded before they can reach the gate of Tianxuan Villa.
Giving up or quitting midway will be considered a failure.
Those who could come to participate were either masters with extraordinary talents or people who made up for their shortcomings with hard work and strong will. Naturally, they would not be defeated by the small Tianxuan Mountain. Not a single one of the thousand people arrived at the gate of the villa.
They stood under the huge plaque of "Tianxuan Villa" and marveled at this villa hidden among the sea of clouds and high mountains.
No wonder few people know where the headquarters of Tianxuan Villa is located. Anyone who sees this "Yunding Palace" at the foot of the mountain will stay away from it. In addition, the entrance is extremely hidden, so naturally no one can come up.
Talented and ambitious people from all corners of the world, speaking with different accents, entered the villa together, chatting and laughing.
Because they had the same goal and were both heroic people, they quickly got to know each other, and some of them felt like they had met too late and they became close friends from the first sight.
The gate of Qingxuan Palace.
Qin Junyu stood with his hands behind his back, the golden butterfly mask dazzling and domineering, showing his noble status. He stared at the crowd pouring into the square below with a deep gaze.
Nian Susu stood beside him, tiptoeing to look down curiously.
They were on the platform in front of the palace gate. Because the base of the Qingxuan Palace was extremely high, about four or five meters above the ground, they could see the entire square from their perspective.
There was a sound of footsteps coming from the stone steps on the right.
The two of them looked sideways and saw that it was Qingyu who came with the ministers.
There are a total of seventy-two departments in Tianxuan Villa, and only the heads of twelve of them came today. Their ages vary, some look only in their twenties or thirties, while others have gray hair and are over sixty.
This was Nian Susu's first time attending such a formal occasion, so he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
Among the twelve people, she only knew Qi Yao, the head of the Xingxiu Department whom she had met yesterday.
Qingyu held the sword and bowed, saying, "Master, the ministers are all here, and all the applicants are here, so we can start."
Qin Junyu nodded, turned and walked towards the fourteen armchairs neatly arranged behind him. The carving and materials of each chair were of excellent quality. He sat on the middle one without thinking, and then winked at Nian Susu, indicating that she should sit on his right.
Nian Susu didn't dare to move. He glanced at the ministers who were standing upright beside him. Each of them looked straight ahead, but their expressions actually changed subtly.
How could a new apprentice be on equal footing with a minister? And he was sitting next to the owner of the manor. This was neither reasonable nor logical. No one dared to refute Qin Junyu's words, but that didn't mean they had no objections.
There were fourteen chairs in total, and one was obviously prepared for her by Qin Junyu. Refusing would seem artificial and counterproductive, so it would be better to hide aside and become an invisible person.
