Chapter 187: The Alien Yue Tianci in Hengjian Villa
The peaceful villa seemed more solemn today, and there were even more guards standing at the gate of the villa.
Yue Tianci came down from school in a horse-drawn carriage. As soon as the horse stopped, he rushed into the door impatiently.
The book boy behind him followed closely with his writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone, "Master! Master! Slow down!"
"Hurry up! Lady Xiaolou is here at my house! She must have won! I want to hear her tell me in person how she won!"
Yue Tianci was overjoyed, "I wasn't detained today, it must be God's favor, and he wanted me to come back early!"
The guard at the door just glanced at him and didn't greet him, just treating him as if he was nothing.
Yue Tianci seemed to have gotten used to it. As soon as he entered the door, he hurriedly asked someone, "Where does Miss Xiaolou live? Where is my sister?"
The servant who was asked was stunned, and did not react to who the "Xiaolou Lady" was, but Yue Tianci's next sentence was,
"It's the new guest today! On the way back, I heard the driver say that a guest had arrived. It must be her!"
The maid pointed in a direction in confusion, and Yue Tianci ran towards it, holding up the corner of his clothes.
The young man was as thin as a bamboo pole, his loose student uniform, the ribbon behind his hat, and his long hair fluttered as he ran.
He didn't care at all that the servant behind him was panting like an old cow.
When his figure disappeared, the servant finally realized what was happening.
The new guest at the villa, isn't that...
Got it!
At the gate of Yanchang Courtyard, Er Liu used the sword in his hand to stop Yue Tianci who was rushing over recklessly.
Yue Tianci was born in Hengjian Villa, so how could he be afraid? He even raised his head and asked Erliu in a rough voice,
"Is Miss Xiaolou here? I'm here to find her!"
Er Liu was about to reject her when Lou Xiao's voice came from the courtyard, "Let him in."
Yue Tianci glanced at him proudly, pushed aside Er Liu's sword and rushed in.
Yanchang Courtyard was the place where Hengjian Villa entertained distinguished guests. He had been there several times and soon found the "Heroine of Xiaolou" sitting by the koi pond in the courtyard.
At this time, Lou Xiao had just calmed down the restlessness of his body, restrained his murderous intent, and sat on a stone with a peaceful expression as he ate.
Yue Tianci strode to her side and sat down with a thud, panting,
"Shui! Shui! I just got back from school. I heard on the way that you won! Tell me quickly, who are the heroes who went there today?"
His familiarity was very natural. Lou Xiao raised her hand to pour him a cup of tea and asked slowly,
"You came back without visiting your elders first, and now you come to me?"
Yue Tianci drank it all in one gulp, wiped the water stains around his mouth with his sleeve, and then wiped the sweat from his head and face.
He said disapprovingly, "No, I'm not popular anyway. They get upset when they see me, so I won't make them angry."
He picked up the snacks on the table and said, "You are so generous. Yiyunliang Tea is so precious. I use it all to treat you. You must be very impressive today! Let them be convinced!"
He urged again, "Tell me quickly! What kind of expert came today? How did you win?"
He is so anxious!
Lou Xiao was calm and composed, "Today there was a very powerful person named Chong Ding, but I don't remember the others.
You are from Hengjian Villa, you have seen many people in the martial arts world, do you need me to tell you something?"
Yue Tianci is an outlier in Hengjian Villa. Others hold swords and are loyal to the underworld, but he wears a student's uniform and is covered with the scent of ink.
"They don't tell me anything and don't let me participate in family affairs."
Yue Tianci sighed, "My elder sister was planning to send me to Canglu Academy, saying that Yunsu City was too tempting and that was why I was restless. If I went to the academy in the mountains, I would have no choice but to study hard because of the lush greenery everywhere.
But if I go to Canglu Academy, I won’t be able to come back for several years. Sister, do you really want me to take the imperial examination? I’m really not cut out for it.”
Lou Xiao was curious, "You are not good at studying, but your sister still let you study? You are the youngest child of the old owner, so even if you don't know anything, it doesn't matter, right?"
Yue Tianci, with something stuffed in his mouth, spoke unclearly, just like Lou Xiao did when he was extremely hungry before.
She pushed the hot tea in front of his eyes, hoping that he wouldn't choke to death in front of her.
"I heard someone in the academy say that the royal family values the eldest son, and the common people love the youngest. It's all fake! I am, and so is Bai Shusheng.
But at least I still have my sister. Bai Shusheng is worse off than me. He only has his father left, and he is not treated well. "
Realizing that he had strayed from the topic, Yue Tianci continued nonchalantly,
"I know you want to know why I am not welcomed. According to my sister, my mother died after I was born. She thought I was the one who killed her."
Yue Tianci refused to even call him father. He was in his rebellious period and had a clear distinction between love and hate.
He revealed the secret to Lou Xiao without any hesitation.
"He had so many wives in his life, but none of them lived for more than a few years. He still has the nerve to blame me... Could it be that all the wives before him were killed by me before I was even born?"
He also had hatred. The old owner of the manor disliked him, and his brothers and sisters, relatives of all clans, and even all the people related to Hengjian Manor treated him as invisible.
If it weren't for his elder sister's love for him, he would have suspected that he was picked up.
"In a family with many children, it is inevitable that there will be some favoritism. Even ten fingers are not the same length." Lou Xiao patted his thin back and asked him to swallow the snack with tea.
"Your sister loves you very much."
Lou Xiao had a good impression of Yue Pengyu. The old owner had so many children, but the only two she had seen were Yue Pengyu and Yue Tianci.
Hearing her mention this, Yue Pengyu said, "I heard that they are calling people back. Hengjian Villa has many industries managed by different people, and they gather together every year to report the progress to the old man.
This year is so strange, what big thing happened that requires you to come back early?"
He did not get involved in family affairs and did not know that they came back to attack the two powerful imperial courts.
And one of them was right in front of him.
Lou Xiao said, "Oh," and said, "I'm coming back."
----
When Yue Pengyu and his men hurriedly rushed to Yanchang Courtyard, they were stopped by Er Liu again.
"Please inform me that I am a naughty boy who doesn't know etiquette. Please allow me to take him back."
Er Liu stood still with his sword in his arms, "Be quiet and wait."
Yue Pengyu was about to say something, but Shi Qing pulled his clothes and shut him up.
She looked at the sword that Erliu was holding. That was the weapon that the Duke of Zhenguo used in the competition to almost severely damage the heavy tripod.
It seems familiar, and seems to be a product of Hengjian Villa.
But he didn't dare to ask more questions, as Yue Tianci didn't know the identity of the Duke of Zhenguo yet.
He doesn't have much brains and is afraid of accidentally saying something that might offend others and break a taboo.
She had already had a brief fight with the Duke of Zhenguo, so even if she was the first to offend,
But Yue Tianci was young and frivolous, so he was afraid...
I’m afraid that he has no tact, and that he might fall in love with the Duke of Zhenguo.
After all, that person saved him in Luoyang Houseboat.
