Who is he waiting for?
Not only did I have this doubt, but everyone present saw these three vacant seats, and everyone also had this doubt in their hearts.
I subconsciously glanced left and right and whispered: "Where is Pei Yuanfeng?"
Yan Qingchen looked at me with a smile: "He has already set off."
“…”
"The bride has not been retrieved yet."
My brows couldn't help but frowned: "Have you ever asked someone to intercept them?"
"I asked someone to stop his ship at Sanjiangkou, but I did not send anyone along the way."
“…”
After all, it is for the Florian artillery.
I sighed a long time, turned my head to look at the hall. Although everyone in the faces had different expressions, everyone was the same. Their eyes were restless, and the light was flashing with the urge to move.
Since Pei Yuanfeng has left, Yan Qingchen and the others will definitely not stay for too long. After all, what Yan Qinghan said was that the place where the cannons were hidden was on the sea. If he went out to sea, where would he go to find him?
However, since Pei Yuanfeng has left and there are no other guests, who are the three empty seats for?
Thinking of this, I finally couldn't help asking, "Who else did you invite?"
Yan Qingchen smiled and turned to look at me: "Just count, I'm my sister's junior."
"Friends?"
I was stunned for a moment, and before I could say anything, I suddenly heard the people at the tables next to me stir up. They all looked at us with shocked expressions.
"Look!"
"That's-"
I calmed down and realized that they were not looking at us, but were all looking behind us.
“…”
What is it?
With my doubts in my heart, I slowly turned around and saw an elegant scenery coming into my eyes outside the spacious and huge window. The green mountains and clear waters, the blue sky and white clouds seemed to be reflected by the water, projecting all the images onto the calm lake surface. The warm lake water reflected the green and gentle light, like a large piece of good jade.
And in the middle of the lake, a long ripples broke the calmness of the picture.
It was a small boat, moving forward rapidly in the lake.
I couldn't help but be shocked, and subconsciously stood up. Several people around me also noticed the place and all stood up and looked out.
The boat was getting closer and closer, and then we could see clearly that there was a man standing on the bow of the boat. Although he couldn't see his appearance clearly, he was tall and handsome and black long gown, making him look vigorous and elegant. He was covered with a layer of milky white translucent robe. He lifted up a little corner of his clothes in the wind and passed by the mist on the lake, making it difficult to tell whether it was fog or clothes.
Fog-covered shirt!
I recognized it at a glance, which was the clothes that only students from Xishan Academy would wear.
Then this person is—
I opened my eyes wide, watching the boat getting closer and closer, and was heading towards us at an almost astonishing speed. When the people around me saw it clearly, several of them were already screaming in a low voice.
Because they saw that no one was rowing on the boat, and even the person standing at the bow stood with his hands behind his back, motionless, but the boat seemed to be advancing under the water.
Someone was secretly guessing next to him, could it be that there was a water ghost helping him?
I said in my heart: Of course not.
It is a secret breathing technique taught by Xishan Academy. It is said that it has been preserved. Every morning when students of Xishan Academy hear the morning bell of Tianmu Temple, they will go to the top of Xishan Mountain to practice. Practicing this breathing technique can eliminate turbidity and remove defilements and clean up the foul air in their bodies, but this is only the initial level of practice. It is said that if you practice better, you can sense the trembling of every flower and leaf around you, or even further away, and the wriggling of each person's five internal organs; it will be more effective, which is what we see now, and you can travel under your feet.
The person in front of me is a student of Xishan Academy!
Moreover, the breathing technique has reached this level and is definitely not an ordinary student.
I subconsciously turned my head to look at Yan Qingchen - what did he do when he asked the people from Xishan Academy?
Yan Qingchen felt my gaze and smiled and raised his head to look at me. The gentle curve of the corner of his mouth seemed to have something to say, but before he could speak, Li'er next to him was already in surprise pulling my sleeve: "Mom, look at that person is so amazing!"
I turned around and nodded in response. When I looked again, the ship had already stopped beside the bank under the attic.
The servants waiting on the embankment immediately went to greet them.
And it was already so close that the guests in the hall had seen the man's clothes clearly and immediately understood that this man was from Xishan Academy.
Many people's faces became a little subtle.
After a while, some people suddenly stood up in the hall, walked to the main table, leaned over to Yan Qingchen and bowed: "Young Master."
Yan Qingchen smiled faintly and said, "What's the matter for you guys?"
Several of them looked at each other, then leaned over and said, "Since the people from Xishan Academy have arrived, there is no place for me to wait here. Please forgive me, my son, and I will leave first."
Leaving the table halfway is definitely the thing that makes the host angry the most, but Yan Qingchen was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled with a curved corner of his eyes and said, "It's also because I didn't think it clearly, so I've made you a waste of time. Let's do this, you'll stay at home these days. When this matter is over, I'll invite you to have a drink."
"Thank you for your kind gift."
After saying that, the people bent over and bowed again, turned around and walked through the side door.
As soon as I saw this scene, I immediately frowned.
At this time, the host of ceremonies at the door had already sang loudly: "A guest has arrived in Xishan Academy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure appeared at the gate.
Because I was against the sun, I couldn't see the person's appearance clearly. I just felt that he was neither old nor young, neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, which was just a neutral meaning. A foggy shirt was worn on him, which showed a bit of the character of a student in Xishan.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Even if someone in the hall doesn't know that person, they all know this dress, and everyone stares at him with breathing.
For a moment, the whole scene became quiet.
The man spread his arms and drew a big arc, closed his hands in front of him, clasped his fists, then leaned over and bowed to the person in the hall and bowed: "I'm late, I'll forgive me for your sins."
And just as he leaned over, a cloud of water suddenly rose up around him, covering his whole body just over an inch.
Some people gasped next to them.
I was still not able to react, but saw that the man had already walked into the hall, and the mist finally drifted away in the wind without leaving any trace.
There was no water vapor on the man's body, and the corners of his clothes and the hair hanging on his shoulders were swaying gently in the wind.
He walked to the main table and bowed to Yan Qingchen: "Greetings to the young master."
Only then did we see the person's appearance.
He is indeed not young, not young, about twenty years old, with a pretty face and good skin. He is a quiet and gentle young man. The most interesting thing is that his chin has a deep depression in the middle, which adds an indescribable playfulness to his entire face.
But his expression was not playful at all, but more of a kind of silence that was isolated.
Yan Qingchen glanced at him, but his eyes were a little faint, and he said, "You are the only one here?"
"Young Master forgives your sins."
"What's going on?"
"It was something happened in the academy. The senior brother was busy dealing with it. The third junior brother was also helping him and could not leave. So only the students came and apologized to the young master."
He said this very clearly and simply, but after hearing his words, the people around him obviously changed their faces.
I heard those whispers, and the trembling of fear was already brought to my mind—
"Did you hear it? He is from Xishan Academy..."
"He is the second child!"
"He's that, there's-"
"Shh! Sigh down, you're desperate!"
I subconsciously turned my head and saw that many people in the hall had already looked terrified without any concealment. When the student looked around, the people lowered their heads one after another, and they did not dare to look at him.
Strangely, no matter how this person looks, he is a gentle and kind young man. Why do those people look at him like an evil ghost?
I was just as strange that the man had already saluted Mrs. Yan and others again, and finally bowed to me: "Students pay homage to the eldest lady."
"Do you know me?"
"I was lucky enough to meet the young lady when she was studying in Xishan."
What he said was similar to the Xishan student he met in Jixiang Village before. It seemed that some decent and capable people had appeared in the group of radish heads back then. The shameless one was me who traveled all over the world and saw the prosperity of the times. In the end, I was confined to the firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.
I curled the corners of my lips lightly and didn't say anything.
Then, he leaned over to Liu Qinghan beside him and bowed: "Senior brother."
Liu Qinghan slowly stood up and looked at him with a sense of exploration in his eyes, but he still bowed back to him according to etiquette.
It seems that although he has not recovered his memory, he still accepts his identity as a "student of Xishan Academy".
At this time, Yan Qingchen waved his hand lightly and said, "Since you are here, let's go to the table first."
"Mr. Xie."
The man turned around and walked to the three seats that were empty on the main table and sat in the middle.
As soon as he sat down, some people stood up in the hall.
Not surprisingly, they all came to avenge their crimes and retire.
This man sat there quietly. He didn't even look at those who left the seat, but those who were discerningly sensible already understood that all these people left the seat because of his appearance.
