"Hello, please help me inform your Miss Xiaoxin, I want to see her." Li Shinian stood at the back door of the Cui family and said to the gatekeeper.
"Miss Shinian, our Miss is not at home recently. You should come back another day. "The gatekeeper had a fawning smile on his face. Li Shinian and his Miss Xiaoxin had a good relationship, and the two often saw each other a while ago. These gatekeepers all knew Li Shinian, so their attitude towards her was friendly and polite.
"Not here? How could she not be here? She and I had an appointment to meet today. "Li Shinian said angrily. "Go in and inform her again. If not, tell Little Red or Little Green to come out and see me. "
"Miss Shinian, our Miss is really not here today, please don't make things difficult for us servants." The gatekeeper said with a troubled face.
Li Shinian stared wide-eyed at the two gatekeepers. "Are you hiding something from me?"
"No, no — —" The two desperately shook their heads. "How could we hide anything from Miss Shinian?"
"You are the gatekeepers of the Cui family, I am the Miss of the Li family, it's natural for you to hide something from me — — Why are you explaining so nervously?" Li Shinian looked puzzled at the two people. "Guilty conscience."
"Miss Shinian, we really have nothing to hide from you."
"Yes. Miss Shinian, please don't make things difficult for us servants. If we let you in, both of our legs will be broken … "
"Huh?" Li Shinian was extremely clever, and immediately discovered some clues from their words. "Why would someone break your legs when I go in? Who wants to break your legs? "
The two exchanged a glance, and kept silent. They were afraid that Li Shinian would find out something wrong with them.
"Forget it." Li Shinian generously waved his hand. "If you don't let me in then so be it. I'm too lazy to go in. "
After that, Li Shinian turned around and walked towards his carriage.
"He left just like that?" The first gatekeeper had a look of disbelief on his face. They all knew of Miss Shinian's reputation. She was not someone who could be provoked or compromised at will.
"There must be a trap," the gatekeeper said.
Li Shinian got into the carriage and said to Li Muyang, who was waiting inside, "Brother, they won't let me in. Said that if I went in, someone would break their legs. It seems like the Cui family knew that you might come to look for Sister Xiaoxin, so they specially ordered the people in the mansion to intercept you. "
With a solemn expression, Li Muyang nodded and said, "I heard it."
"Brother, it's fine if you really want to go in. There are only two guards at the door. I'll go over and slap each of them, knocking them unconscious. After that, you can barge in. "
Li Muyang forced a smile and said, "What do you think the Cui family is? How could he charge through just like that? Besides, even if he broke in, it would inevitably alarm the guards in the mansion. They've been chasing me all the way, even if I see Xiaoxin, what can I say? "
"Then don't say anything, just do what you want to do." Li Muyang blinked his innocent big eyes and suggested sincerely.
Li Muyang was taken aback for a moment. "What do I want to do?"
"How would I know?" Li Shinian stomped his feet in anger. "You're clamoring to see Sister Xiaoxin, but you haven't even thought about what you want to do. What are you doing here?"
"I — — I just want to see her and talk to her." Li Muyang said.
"Idiot."
"— —"
Li Muyang lifted the curtain and said aloud, "Let's go. It seems that we can't see her this time, come back next time. "
"Just go like that?" Li Shinian said unwillingly, "Or, I climb the wall and help you shout?"
"Don't." Li Muyang hurriedly dissuaded his sister's crazy idea and said, "Even if you shout yourself hoarse, you still can't go in. And aren't you making things difficult for Xiaoxin by doing this? "
"I'm not making things difficult for Sister Xiaoxin. I'm making things difficult for Sister Xiaoxin's family." Li Shinian stared fiercely at the Cui family's door and said, "Brother, our door will be higher than the Cui family's in the future."
"Okay, our house is built on the mountain, and the door is higher than the Cui family's roof." Li Muyang nodded.
"Hmph. I don't want to live on the mountain. "Li Shinian pinched his brother and said with a smile.
Li Muyang knew his sister's mind. He reached out to touch her head and said, "Let's go. We're now living in the Lu Family, and every word and action represents the Lu Family. There are some things that can't be done casually. Since we can't see him today, we'll come back tomorrow. There's always a chance to see him — — "
"Brother — —" Li Shinian looked aggrieved at Li Muyang.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Li Shinian shook his head.
He thought to himself, I hope brother doesn't know about the marriage between the Cui family and the Song family. It is said that the Song family's' Jade Tree of the Song family ', Song Tinyun, has returned to Tiandu. He came back at this time, it should be for the marriage, right?
However, this matter can't be hidden forever. Once the news of the marriage between the Cui and Song family spreads out, it will certainly cause a sensation throughout Tiandu, and even the entire West Wind Kingdom.
Brother is about to fight against that old man Shisui, he must not be affected by this matter.
Li Muyang looked at the flash of worry on Li Shinian's face, saying: "Come, accompany me to a place."
"Where?"
"The Song family."
"Song family? Which Song family? "
Li Muyang was a little embarrassed. "Miss Chenxi of the Song family begged me to draw a picture for her, and I agreed. Since I'm free today, let's go and fulfill this promise. In the next few days, I'm going to practice in seclusion, if — — "
Li Muyang did not finish his words, worried that Li Shinian would be upset if he heard it.
For the next period of time, he would wholeheartedly cultivate and prepare for the duel with Mu Dingyi.
If Li Muyang won, there was still a chance to fulfil his promise. If he lost, he would have to break his promise.
Li Shinian's pupils widened, like a puppy that had seen a bone, sweeping his eyes over Li Muyang. Li Muyang was that bone.
Li Shinian sneered, "Li Muyang, you know Song Chenxi of the Song family? I have been in Tiandu for so long, but I have never seen the mysterious Miss of the Song family — — You just came back for a few days, and you already know her? And you were invited to the Song residence to paint? "
"Yes." Li Muyang nodded. "I just happened to meet her on the road."
"Li Muyang, you won't turn around and pursue the Song family just because the Cui family gave you the cold shoulder, right?"
"There's no such thing, Miss Song and I — — are just ordinary friends. No, they couldn't even be considered ordinary friends. She invited me to paint a picture for her, do you think I can refuse? "
"Pei." Li Shinian spat. "There are so many women in Tiandu, if everyone asks you to paint a picture, you won't be able to refuse?"
"No, Miss Song is not the same as other women — —"
"Of course not the same. She is the Miss of the Song family, and one of the three bright moons of Tiandu, how could she be the same as other women? "
"Then are you coming with me or not?"
"Of course I'm going." Li Shinian said with his head held high. "If I don't go, who knows what you'll do?"
"— —"

Cui family. In the small courtyard.
Cui Xiaoxin was sitting in front of the charcoal fire reading an ancient scroll when there was a soft knock on the courtyard door.
Taohong glanced at the Miss and saw that her mind was still on the book, so she ran straight over to open the courtyard door.
"Madam." Taohong saw that it was the Miss's mother standing at the door, and hurriedly bowed.
"What is Xiaoxin doing?" Cui's mother asked, and said aloud to the handsome youngster behind her, "Tingyun, please come in. Xiaoxin is a good child, but she likes to be quiet and does not like to move. She stays in the small courtyard all day reading and practicing calligraphy. Every time she goes out for a walk at my urging, and gets impatient after a while. "
"Madam, Miss is reading in the room." Taohong said aloud. She stole a glance at the youngster in white standing next to the madam, and thought to herself, why is he back? Could it be that that matter is really near?
"I don't know what Miss is thinking, I'm afraid she's not very happy. She has been thinking about Li Muyang, and last time she invited her to the plum garden to enjoy the plum blossoms. She should treat him differently, right? "
Of course, such a matter was not something that a maidservant like her could interject.
"Xiaoxin is a model of a noble lady. Tingyun has long known that she is knowledgeable and has a noble character." Song Tinyun said with a smile.
"Tingyun is flattered. It's not easy for you to come back, and you two haven't seen each other for some years. This is the right time to have a good chat. "Cui's mother looked at Song Tinyun meaningfully, with a happy smile on her lips.
It had to be said that anyone would be happy to see Song Tinyun.
Among the influential families, except for the princes of the royal family, there was no man in the whole empire with a more noble status than him.
He was handsome, elegant, and elegant. His appearance and temperament were impeccable. They were all the best choices. He and Xiaoxin could be said to be a match made in heaven.
He was also a genius in cultivation, and his strength was among the best of the younger generation. Now that he was recruited by Starry Sky Academy, his future was limitless.
If such a person could become her son-in-law, Cui's mother would be willing.
She didn't know why, but Cui's mother thought of Li Muyang again.
"I heard that his sister, Li Shinian, came to knock on the door today. She must have sent a message to her brother, Swan Goose. Fortunately, I was prepared and kept her out of the door. Otherwise, if she took Xiaoxin away, Tingyun's trip would have been in vain. "
Cui's mother did not like Li Muyang, and did not want Cui Xiaoxin to become a second Cui Xinci.
"Yes." Song Tinyun bowed and thanked her politely.
