Chapter 91: sword test
In front of the Qingyu Hall, everyone had already set out wine and drank it while ordering it.
Jiang Xuening's alcohol capacity was really average, and she was twisted by Shen Zhiyi to drink a little.
As soon as she touched the wine, her cheeks were stained with a thin red, which was really beautiful.
Shen Zhiyi couldn't help clapping her hands, pointing at her and asking everyone: "Look, is Ning Ning pretty?"
Many of the friends present were Yan Lin's friends, and they were all young at heart.
It was because of the difference between men and women that it was not good to look at the girls, but when Shen Zhiyi asked, many young people, including King Yanping, quietly raised their eyes to look at her. His face was also thin, so he blushed.
Only Yan Lin looked at it calmly and seriously, and smiled with curved lips: "It looks good."
Jiang Xuening was speechless.
She originally blushed when she had been exposed to wine, but now her thin red cheeks were a little redder because of these two simple words, turning crimson, more eye-catching, bright and charming.
Everyone was laughing and making noises. Once they drank wine and talked, they seemed to have forgotten everything, and even their troubles were left behind.
When Xiao Shu and the others delayed their arrival for a while, what they saw was such a scene.
In the corridor, she stopped in her footsteps, and the other companions who were walking behind her and another young man in a fancy dress also stopped in their footsteps.
Shen Zhiyi had just raised the wine glass to ask King Yanping to drink, but when she looked up and saw someone coming down the corridor, she was startled for a while, and then laughed: "Ah Shu, you guys are here too. Hey, isn't this Xiao Ye? He even came too .”
The boy standing behind Xiao Shu raised his jaw a little higher.
Hearing Shen Zhiyi call him by his first and last name, his lips pursed a little, but because the other party was a princess with a high status, and he was not easy to get angry, he could only forcefully smile and said: "Xiao Ye has met His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess. "
Xiao Ye.
When Jiang Xuening heard the name, she turned her head to look.
The young man was eighteen or nineteen years old, his facial features were very similar to Xiao Shu's, he was wearing expensive Tianshui blue brocade and cloud satin, and there were many sachets and jade pendants around his waist, and he also wore a sword scabbard inlaid with precious stones long sword. Although he was saying hello to others, he didn't look at others, and his expression was a bit arrogant.
This is the current son of the Xiao family.
Dingguogong's continuation, the younger brother of Xiao Shu's mother's compatriot, was rumored to be a dragon and a phoenix, which aroused the admiration of Beijing, and if there were no accidents, he would soon be named Dingguogong's heir. Inherit the huge Xiao family.
With such a precious status, it is no wonder that he is a little arrogant.
only…
After two years of Xiao Dingfei's appearance, he still needs to be able to be arrogant and laugh, that would be his real ability.
Jiang Xuening looked away.
Shen Zhiyi beckoned and said, "We are drinking under the wine order, you come too."
Xiao Shu drew back her body and bowed: "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders."
Yan Lin watched quietly, neither making a sound nor objecting.
When Xiao Ye came over, he sat down carelessly, then glanced at the table, curled his lips lightly, and said, "What kind of wine are you drinking?"
King Yanping replied foolishly: "Old apricot blossom wine."
Xiao Ye shook his head: "What's so delicious about this?"
Everyone looked at him.
He also brought a gold-painted folding fan with him today, he lifted it up and knocked on the table, saying: "If I knew you all came so early and wanted to drink here, I would bring you our purple gold altar. Sent by a group of people from the south of the Yangtze River, the wine is the best."
Yan Lin smiled and did not speak.
Xiao Shu frowned and glanced at Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye touched his nose, as if he had realized something, but there was still some disapproval in his eyes, he picked up the glass of wine in front of him, and said: "Of course, apricot blossom brewing is also good, old wine, good Wine, you can drink it in the future."
Everyone was drinking happily, but after hearing what he said, they felt very disgusted.
Which one of you here is not a noble son?
Even the Xiao family is prominent and superior to others, but who can have few jars of good wine? If it wasn't for today's Yan Linguan ceremony, I'm afraid he would walk away immediately, and he wouldn't bother to talk to him.
After all, he was still a good man, Wang Yanping, seeing that the atmosphere was not quite right, he quickly came out to smooth things over, took a glass of wine, stood up, held it up to Yan Lin, and said: "Today is Yan Lin's birthday, everyone finally got together, how about everyone Let's toast him together and congratulate him on his birthday, how about it?"
Shen Zhiyi immediately said: "Okay!"
Of course, everyone had no objection, they all stood up and served the wine, and held it high to Yan Lin.
One said: "I wish Yan Shizi a blessing like the East Sea..."
Yan Lin smiled: "Fuck you."
One hurriedly pushed the previous one away, and said: "I will come, I will come, of course it is to be as constant as the moon, as rising as the sun, as..."
Yan Lin sighed: "Vulgar."
When it was Xiao Shu's turn, she pondered for a moment, raised her glass and looked at Yan Lin and said, "I'm also vulgar, so I wish Prince Yan every year to have today and every year to have today."
Every year has today, every year has today.
In the ears of others, this is wishing Yan Lin a long life.
However, Jiang Xuening's ear became extremely harsh. The moment she heard Xiao Shu say these words, her complexion changed abruptly, her eyes suddenly became sharper, and she looked at Xiao Shu.
There was a faint smile on the corner of Xiao Shu's mouth, as if she really said these words out of sincerity.
She couldn't judge whether she was unintentional or intentional.
Yan Lin was sitting opposite Jiang Xuening, and raised his head to look at Xiao Shu when he heard the words, but his face did not change, showing a kind of calmness beyond his age, and even thanked: "You can win Xiao Shu!" Congratulations from Miss, Yan Lin should remember it for a long time."
Xiao Shu said, "You're welcome."
Yan Lin turned his head to look at Jiang Xuening, his plain gaze just now softened a lot, and said, "What about you, what do you wish me?"
Jiang Xuening didn't expect that Yan Lin would take the initiative to call her, and she was still thinking that there were so many people present, that it wouldn't be possible for everyone to say a word, and that she and the others would just muddle through.
This time Yan Lin touched her, and everyone looked at her.
She opened her mouth, but her mind was blank.
Seeing that her slender fingers were holding the wine glass, Yan Lin froze on the spot, as if she didn't know what to say, couldn't help but smiled, and stretched out her hand to lightly touch her wine glass with his own wine glass, saying: " If you can’t think of words, let me wish you well.”
Jiang Xuening stared at him blankly.
The young man stared at her, and said very seriously: "May you be accompanied by the bright moon and the breeze always, so that you will be relieved of all worries, and all difficulties will be overcome."
After saying that, he straightened his head and drank the wine in the cup.
Everyone cheered in unison and drank the wine in their glasses together.
Jiang Xuening was slow for a moment.
It wasn't until Yan Lin put down the wine cup to look at her that she felt that her heart was sore and swelled by today's strong wine, and she also raised her head to dry the wine in the cup, and her eyes were stained with water The light is shining, bright and moving.
Today Yan Lin is the master, everyone talks around Yan Lin, and drinks with Yan Lin.
Xiao Ye, who was born in Dingguo's mansion, asked himself that his status was no lower than Yan Lin's, but since he sat down, no one paid attention to him, so the more he sat down, the more he felt depressed, so he simply put down the wine cup and stood up in the courtyard of Qingyutang Look around.
The sword box with the sword hidden in it that Jiang Xuening gave Yan Lin earlier was placed beside it.
He saw it when he walked over, picked up the sword out of curiosity, held it up to the sky and looked at it, and shook his head: "This sword looks too simple, too heavy to hand? People say that the sword is light, why? Such a sword also appeared in the Hou Mansion?"
When Yan Lin, who was talking to someone, turned his head, his eyes turned cold.
Even Shen Zhiyi frowned tightly.
Yan Lin walked over, and said: "Some swords are light, some are heavy, the swords are different, the way is different, please return this sword to me, Mr. Xiao."
Then he took the sword from Xiao Ye's hand.
Xiao Ye heard his calm words, but he didn't feel that this man put himself in the bottom of his eyes, and he was always well-clothed and raised by others. He didn't know what restraint was, so he sneered suddenly: "My son's sword was taught by Mr. Liu Xie, a well-known swordsman in Beijing. What does Shizi Yan mean by what he said?"
The ranger's sword is not the same as the general's sword.
But Yan Lin didn't want to explain to him, he just said: "You are right."
It's okay if he is not like this, the more he is like this, the more Xiao Ye feels that he is contemptuous, and the arrogance and dissatisfaction that had been suppressed suddenly burst out. Seeing Yan Lin holding the sword and bending over to put the sword back into the box, unexpectedly He directly pressed his hand on his waist, and immediately pulled out the sword on his body!
With a flick of the Qingling sword, it landed on Yan Lin's sword!
He laughed: "Why are you in such a hurry to hide the sword in the box? I heard that Lord Yan's swordsmanship was taught by Lord Yan. Mr. Liu Xie also praised Lord Hou's sword a lot. Today coincides with the meeting, and Lord Yan got a new sword. I don't know if I can ask for advice?"
Xiao Ye's sword is like snow, long, narrow, and even soft.
Yan Lin's sword is three fingers wide, and the blade is made of meteorite, with a black-green brilliance.
He still maintained the previous posture of putting the sword back into the sword case, lowered his head, and lowered his eyes, and easily saw his own eyes reflected on Xiao Ye Xueliang's sword.
Sullen, chill, cold.
So with a slight frown and a flick of his wrist, Yan Lin raised his sword and shook it without even changing the expression on his face. He actually turned the sword held by Xiao Ye upside down and almost flew out of his hand!
Xiao Ye was caught off guard and was taken aback.
Yan Lin was holding the long sword upside down, pointing at the ground slantingly, just now Jiang Xuening was holding the long sword that was difficult for both hands, but he didn't feel any weight when he was carrying it, she had a natural attitude, and said with a smile: "'Ask for advice' Don't dare to do it, since Young Master Xiao has the heart to test the sword, it is harmless to compare."
Xiao Ye's complexion immediately darkened.
He is conceited that he learned swordsmanship from a famous teacher, and he really doesn't pay attention to people like Yan Lin who learned swordsmanship from the elders, and seeing that Princess Leyang and Jingzhong Xungui's children are there, he intends to show off his skills and make everyone look at him with admiration , so without even thinking about it, he yelled: "Okay! Look at the sword!"
When the voice fell, the man had followed the sword.
Everyone didn't expect them to say bibibi, and they were shocked.
Jiang Xuening also got up from her seat at once.
On the contrary, Shen Zhiyi became excited: "Ah, this is fun!"
Yan Lin's feet didn't move, he just lowered his eyes, turned sideways, and got out of the way of the sword.
The long sword brushed against his shoulder.
Xiao Ye frowned and wanted to turn back his sword and strike again, but Yan Lin's heavy sword was turned upside down in his hand, and the heavy sword drew an arc and hit Xiao Ye's sword. For a moment, there was a feeling of sparks flying everywhere. Under the huge shock of the sword, Xiao Ye almost lost his grip on the sword, and turned around quickly to draw the sword to be able to stabilize it.
As soon as he fights, he suffers a loss, and he can't hold back his face.
Gritting his teeth, he picked up the long sword and used all kinds of dazzling sword moves according to the master's teaching, but Yan Lin didn't move the sword, and the sword often hit the vital point.
"when!"
"when!"
"when!"
…
Yan Lin was dressed in a dark blue brocade robe, and the sleeves seemed to be carrying a strong wind. At the beginning, he gave Xiao Ye some face, and wanted to see how deep he was. But after a few tricks, he found that this person was just flamboyant, and after learning a little bit of superficiality, he became self-righteous, and his hands became heavier.
A sword is as fast as a sword, and a sword is as heavy as a sword!
Xiao Ye felt his tiger's mouth go numb, and he couldn't stand on his feet, but Yan Lin had one hand behind his back, and slashed at him with sword after sword as if he was strolling in the garden. Every time the sword struck, Xiao Ye took a step back, and finally retreated under the cherry tree!
"Zheng!"
There was a sharp beep.
Yan Lin had no expression on his face, and the cold, hard and heavy long sword in his hand directly hit Xiao Ye's wrist, and with another pick, the light and snowy sword flew straight out of Xiao Ye's hand like a ray of light streaking across the road!
When it fell, it landed on the bluestone steps, and there was a "clang".
The people watching in the corridor suddenly gasped.
Xiao Ye's face turned red and blue.
He didn't save any face at all!
Yan Lin has followed his father to study hard since he was a child. Although he is also a son of an honored son in Beijing, he can be placed in the two big camps of Tongzhou and Fengtai, and he can even compete with the top fighters. Tend to be practical and direct!
If you can't defeat the enemy on the battlefield, you will be the one who dies.
This also made his sword look extraordinarily cold and cold, even carrying a bit of chilling majesty!
After knocking down Xiao Ye's sword, he turned his wrist, held the hilt with both hands, and held the long sword upside down. Even his expression was the same as when he was at the beginning, without any change. He just stood tall and clasped his fists to the opponent: gone."
Xiao Ye's jaw was still numb, he gritted his teeth and said, "You!"
Yan Lin's brows were stained with a little frost, and the coldness that had been suppressed before was finally completely revealed, and there was even a sharpness that no son of Jing Zhongxun could ever have: "How?"
Xiao Ye looked at him for a while, then took a step back, and said with a sneer: "Forget it, a savage martial artist, he only knows such a little thing."
Shen Zhiyi immediately walked down, stared at him and said, "What did you say?"
Yan Lin didn't get angry, but just looked Xiao Ye up and down, smiled flatly, and said: "If Ding was not the son, I'm afraid he wouldn't be such a waste."
Definitely not the son of the world...
Few people in Beijing have heard of this name.
But in the end it is related to the secrets of the two big clans of Xiao Yan, there are still rumors behind the scenes: Xiao Shu and Xiao Ye are both born of Xu Xian, and the first wife of Duke Dingguo is the younger sister of Hou Yi and the aunt of Yan Lin, Originally the one who would inherit the Xiao clan was the first wife's eldest son, Dingfei's eldest son. If it hadn't been for the unfortunate death of Dingfei's eldest son twenty years ago, Mrs. Yan and Li returned to the Yongyihou Mansion. ? I'm afraid I don't even have the chance to be born.
Yan Lin's words seemed plain, but they were powerful.
Everyone's eyes fell on the Xiao siblings.
Where did Xiao Ye think that Yan Lin would bring up this topic without warning?
As soon as his face changed, he was about to burst into anger.
At the critical moment, Xiao Shu shouted coldly: "Shut up!"
Xiao Ye was choked up, with hatred in his eyes, but he didn't dare to speak after all.
But Xiao Shu came out, but she could still maintain a little composure, but her face was not very good-looking, she bowed to Yan Lin, and said: "My brother's recklessness and careless words have offended Prince Yan, Xiao Shu is here to help Yan Lin. He made an apology. I heard that Dingfei's elder brother is talented and intelligent. However, it has been nearly twenty years since this matter happened, and my father still sighs with sadness. He is gone, and the old things are hard to recover. Why should Prince Yan mention it today? Aggressive?"
Yan Lin looked at Xiao Shu, walked up to the railing, put the sharp and icy long sword firmly into the sword box, and said indifferently: "Yes, after all, the Si people are gone, and the old things are hard to get back. If such a person is lucky enough to be alive, it would be a terrible thing, and how many people would be worried and sleepless at night."
