Chapter 72

Seventeen covered his swollen cheek with the naked eye and asked, "does the engagement of the eldest lady have anything to do with whether I can be her escort?"

Seventeen admitted that when he heard that the eldest lady was engaged, he was a little disappointed.

However, it doesn't seem to affect him to be a guard!

"You're not..." commander Hu said, and he didn't know how to go on.

"I what?"

To tell the truth, Hu Tongling's slap was useless, but it still made seventeen's head a little confused.

Even LAN Yanming realized that something was wrong!

Do you want to be his sister's guard?

It seems not necessarily?

He stared at Hu Tongling, because he found that his thinking seemed to be distorted by Hu Tongling's slap just now!

"Why do you want to be Yanlin's guard?"

"It was the eldest lady who took me to Lan Fu. I admitted and promised before that I would protect her as her escort in the future!"

LAN Yanming asked, "when did it happen?"

"About... It seems ten years ago!"

"Well, I see. Go down!" LAN Yanming waved his hand and motioned for the two to step down, "I will seriously consider your request."

Out of the attic, the two were silent for a long time. Hu Tongling asked, "seventeen, does your face still hurt?"

"No pain!"

"You have a good rest!" Commander Hu was always embarrassed to say sorry.

The first snow in winter in Yiyang city came unexpectedly.

Stepping on the snow layer and looking at the flying snow falling like goose feathers, seventeen entered the eldest childe's attic again.

Looking at the eldest childe, seventeen felt uneasy. He went back and stroked it carefully. Finally, he found that his request was a little rash.

But now that he has said everything, he will not regret it.

After all, that was his promise.

"Seventeen, you can be Yanlin's guard!" The eldest childe said bluntly.

Through the report of his subordinates, LAN Yanming has probably understood the reason why Shiqi wants to be his sister's escort.

Seventeen was a little excited: "really? Eldest childe?"

"Do I need to lie to you?" LAN Yanming asked in reply.

"Thank you, young master!"

"Don't thank me first. I'm conditional. Listen before you make a choice!"

"Good!" Seventeen tried to suppress his excitement, "eldest childe, please say!"

It was beyond his expectation to become the escort of the eldest lady so smoothly.

"With your talent, if you just act as the guard of Yan Lin, you are really overqualified. If you are known by people in other families, you will laugh at our blue family for destroying a genius!" LAN Yanming looked at seventeen and said seriously, "I hope you join the blue shadow guard!"

Blue shadow guard?

This is the second time I heard of LAN Yingwei.

"What is the blue shadow guard?"

"The blue shadow guard is a semi secret force of our blue family, and few people know it. In addition to defending the safety of the blue family, the blue shadow guard also needs to eliminate all enemies that threaten our blue family!" LAN Yanming whispered, "Lan Yingwei only obeys the orders of the owner. In recent years, my father slowly handed over LAN Yingwei to me. You are very suitable to join."

"Will you?"

"Subordinates are willing!"

LAN Yanming nodded with satisfaction. At least seventeen was his man.

"Later, the new moon will take you to get three sets of clothes and waist tags. After you change them, she will take you to Yan Lin, and she will tell Yan Lin that I arranged you." LAN Yanming handed a jade pendant to seventeen, "don't forget to take this jade pendant to Chuangong Pavilion today to get a yellow level top-level skill and Xuan level bottom-level martial arts. I've talked to the steward of Chuangong Pavilion, and I'll just give the jade pendant directly to him. As for you entering the blue shadow guard, someone will come to you tomorrow evening."

Before leaving, LAN Yanming said, "seventeen, Yan Lin's marriage was decided by my father himself. You should protect her when she is still in the blue house."

Seventeen understand the other meanings contained in the eldest childe's words.

Crescent moon is the servant girl I saw in the attic yesterday. She has a high position among the servants in the blue house.

Seventeen had a good impression of her. She thought she was very warm-hearted. She didn't have the arrogance of being LAN Yanming's personal servant girl at all. She always had a smile on her face. Looking at her made people feel very cordial.

Along the way, she introduced the general situation in the blue mansion and the place name route that needs to be remembered to seventeen, and seventeen silently remembered it.

The blue family's protective clothing is black, and there is a set of black skin armor on the upper body.

After putting on the protective clothing, Xinyue looked at seventeen with a smile and said, "wearing this clothes, it looks very manly!"

Seventeen didn't know how to answer.

"Seventeen, is there a girl you like in the blue house? If so, you can tell your sister that she has served the eldest childe for several years, and she still has some face in the blue house!" Crescent whispered, "even if you like a girl from the LAN family, my sister can help you matchmaking! How about something you like?"

"Sister crescent, I'm still young."

"Is it small? Where is it?" Crescent tone slightly jokingly said, "you are almost fifteen, not small. My sister told you that if you meet a girl you like, you must start quickly, or the beautiful ones will be picked away by others!"

Seventeen can only bow his head in embarrassment.

Crescent smiled and stopped talking about it. Seventeen was still young and thin skinned. He might be angry if he said it.

"It's easier to work as an official with the eldest lady, because the eldest lady has been in poor health since childhood and seldom goes out. You should continue to practice hard in your spare time!"

"OK!" Seventeen promised.

"That's good!" Crescent continued, "in recent years, there are not many young martial artists who can be favored by the eldest childe. You should not live up to his expectations of you."

"Yes!"

Seventeen thought for a moment and asked, "sister crescent, can I ask the eldest lady why she is not in good health?"

Crescent whispered, "it is said that the inborn meridians are imperfect, and there is basically no medicine to cure it. However, the eldest lady has a good temper, treats people kindly, and will not be harsh on servants. Many servants in the blue house respect her very much."

"Who is the fiance of the eldest lady?"

"The eldest young master of Chen family in Mingjian city!" Crescent whispered with some dissatisfaction.

Ming Jiancheng, seventeen, has heard of it. In Nanyun country, Ming Jiancheng, like the LAN family, is also a famous top aristocratic family.

The eldest young master of Chen family in Mingjian city?

Thinking of the eldest son LAN Yanming, seventeen had to admit that the other party should match the eldest lady very well!

The yard of the eldest lady should have been full of flowers and plants before. Unfortunately, when winter comes, most of them have become withered branches and leaves, covered with a layer of snow.

Only in the corner, a plum blossom blooms alone, emitting a faint fragrance.
