"Li Yi..."

In the Lin Family Courtyard, an angry voice exploded like thunder. The killing intent suffused from within, captivating one's mind.

Outside the courtyard, a group of servants knelt there, shivering and sweating, not daring to speak at all.

Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing heavy clothes slowly walked over. He looked at the group of people outside the yard and said, "All of you, get up!" "Go busy yourselves."

"Yes, Patriarch."

All of them felt as if they had been released from a heavy burden. They relaxed before leaving in a hurry.

In the courtyard, the Forest Pavilion's expression was hideous and gloomy. It was extremely unsightly, and the Qi within his body was extremely chaotic, as if it was a volcano that was about to erupt.

The middle-aged man frowned, "He's already in his twenties, but he still can't control his emotions?"

Hearing his father's voice, Lin Zizai's mood relaxed quite a bit. He turned around, and said with an unwilling and angry tone: "Father, I've failed, and this child is truly not willing to accept this. The descendant of a Divine Guardian Beast, can't even take up a single letter?"

The man squinted his eyes. "Tell me about it."

Lin Zizi's heart was filled with sorrow and anger, and he immediately told her everything about the banquet.

The Lin Family Master's eyes narrowed, "Are you saying that the Princess left Li Yi behind in the end?"

"I saw with my own eyes that outside the door, the princess' maidservant stopped him." He tightly clenched his hands. He was truly unwilling to accept this outcome.

The Lin Family Master said after pondering for a long time: "Don't mention this matter. Also, don't go out for the next two months."

The one in the palace had already made his choice. He believed that there would be a terrifying collision between the Red Star Academy and the palace, and regardless of the outcome, none of these were things that their Lin Family could come into contact with.

Fifth Institute.

Li Yi laughed heartily: "Senior brother, when will you teach me my sword techniques?"

Qin Meng said expressionlessly: "After tonight."

Li Yi nodded and without saying a word, he left immediately.

Night gradually descended. A cold wind blew across the land, bringing with it traces of coolness.

In front of the Fifth Institute entrance, Qin Meng tightened his clothes, looked at the wine jug on his waist, and then left in large strides.

What was different from usual was that he had changed into a new set of clothes. The white plain clothes were simple and clean, and the sparse stubble on his chin was also shaved clean. He looked much more energetic and young now.

At the same time, in the depths of the princess' residence, the beautiful person was currently in front of a mirror, frantically changing her clothes. The set of green colored clothes on her body was the eleventh one she had changed into.

"Xiao Qi, do you think this set is good? Would it be too obvious? "

"Xiao Qi, I should wear something simpler, right?"

"What about this one?"

"Xiao Qi? Don't sleep, help me take a look! " She was usually dignified and mature, but at this moment, she appeared to be a young girl. Her face was full of happiness, and she no longer had her usual elegance and calmness. What replaced it was nervousness and nervousness.

"Princess, this is already the fifteenth set." Xiao Qi said helplessly, "Princess looks like a fairy. She looks good in anything."

"Hmm, it seems to make a lot of sense." Xia Xiaoxiao was startled, then nodded his head, his expression was serious, then he spoke: "Then what about my clothes? Let him see the different me? That's not right! We haven't seen each other in years. I don't know what kind of person he likes. Xiao Qi? Xiao Qi. "

What he said made sense?

Xiao Qi was speechless, her smile was even uglier than crying.

Half an hour later, the great princess finally made her choice. In the words of Xiao Qi, this was the most difficult choice the princess had ever made in her life.

At least for now, not after tonight.

The sky was getting darker as ten thousand lights emerged one after another. From high up in the sky, it looked like beautiful stars dotted the entire land. It also looked like the bustling night scenery of the capital.

The capital had three arched bridges, the most famous of which was the one at the east gate.

Under the bridge was a very wide river, about a hundred meters wide. The river wasn't too fast, and the moon could be vaguely seen reflected in the water. From afar, it looked like a pearl hidden deep within the water.

In May, the weather was good.

People came and went on the bridge, and the river was even more so. The boats came and went, and the lights flickered, and many people admired the moon with their loved ones, watching the night scenery. Occasionally, someone would play a zither and recite a poem.

That's right, this was the well-known Bridge of Seven Nights. It was also the favorite place for female scholars.

Here, there was no killing, no grudges, only the scent of books, the sound of the zither, and the laughter of the talented girls.

The Seventh-night Bridge had been famous for a long time. Flipping through the records of history, one would be able to see the beautiful scenes of talents falling in love one after another here.

Ten years ago, there was another story that was spread far and wide.

The protagonist of the story was Shang Kingdom, the current Princess Xia Xiaoxiao. It was rumored that ten years ago, when she was ten years old, she climbed over the wall and left the palace, running all the way here only to meet with a few drunkards blocking her way.

Coincidentally, the sky was filled with drizzling rain, and the people on both sides of the river were few and far between. The princess who fell into the water screamed and screamed with all her might; no one could hear her.

The drunkard on the bridge also seemed to know that he had made a big mistake and hurriedly fled.

At this moment, a white-clothed youth jumped down, saving their Shang Kingdom's princess.

Only after the two had landed on the shore did the female scholars and scholars realize what had happened. They quickly surrounded the youngster and praised him. Thereafter, there were many good things that happened.

Of course, if it was such an ordinary method of saving someone, it would definitely not be a good story. Most importantly, she was a princess, and after her identity was exposed, she became a good story.

At that time, she had said to that youth, "When I grow up, can I marry you?"

What made people speechless was that the youth directly refused, "No." He even seriously told her that she was too young or something like that.

In fact, a difference of five or six years was very common in Gods and Devils Continent, but thinking back carefully, it was fortunate that the youth did not agree! Because she was the princess that they thought was too high and mighty!

The good news had been passed down throughout the entire city. Other than the princess, no one else knew the identity of this young man, because only the princess would pay attention to him, and no one else would.

As for what happened afterwards, no one knew.

When she was ten years old, because she escaped from the palace, not long after she returned, she was sent into Yaoguang Lake.

In that short period of time, the two of them had met, come into contact, secretly send letters, and shared their feelings. However, the youth did not know of her identity until the day she left.

Afterwards, she had come back at least seven or eight times, but the youth had never seen her or even replied to her letter.

But even so, the infatuated princess didn't give up. She kept silently watching the young man, and in the blink of an eye, ten years had passed. She understood the young man, but she had never met him.

Until this moment, she was very happy and very nervous.

The bright moon tonight wasn't really that beautiful, but to Xia Xiaoxiao, it was the most beautiful night.

"Little Seven, you can go back now!" She smiled brightly, her face beaming, her eyes unfocused.

"But... Miss, are you alone? " Xiao Qi was stunned and a little worried.

"Then find a place to stay. You are not allowed to come close, and you are not allowed to peek." She smiled.
