"I would like to promise to the Queen that if I make this matter public, I will be struck by thunder and will never be favored again!" Concubine De was the first to stand up and stepped forward to swear. Listening to the oath, everyone present was stunned.

They were all shocked, but they were convinced the most. So one after another, the concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines and concubines also followed suit and swore a solemn oath.

"Everyone is serious, I am just saying it casually." Seeing their expressions change, they flashed sinisterly, and said quietly, "But I also want you to make a vow. If I

If you leak this matter, how about I die a miserable death without a burial place?"

The corners of his lips curved, and his cheeks were filled with smiles. The sound of the oriole in the empty valley originally attracted people's attention, but the words he spoke were like huge rocks falling from the sky, which shocked people's hearts. As a human being, the most important thing is death.

She has a place to live in the future. But now she has sworn such a vow. People have to sigh: her ruthlessness is indeed beyond all people. However, this kind of vow has strengthened their hearts and made them

More convinced.

"Well, in that case. Then the first auction will be the day after tomorrow, giving everyone more than a day to prepare. The time of each subsequent auction will be announced at the previous auction meeting. Okay, I'm exhausted. You all go back

Let's go." He waved his hands tiredly and said lazily.

"Yes, my concubine, please retire." The concubines stood up and resigned, and walked out of the palace door elegantly. However, the moment they walked out of the palace door, they immediately lost their image, put on their feet, and ran towards their own palaces.

The palace maids and eunuchs on the road were so frightened that they mistakenly thought that all the ladies in the harem were crazy.

In Fengqi Palace, after everyone had dispersed, Yaya and the others quickly opened the windows for ventilation. But Shangguan Qi changed her clothes alone and sneaked out of the palace.[

Walked into Bihen Building through the back door specially prepared for employees to enter and exit, and then went straight to the room where Qiuyun and Chunhe were. The two of them happened to be looking at the recent account books in the room, and they all looked happy when they saw Shangguan Qi coming out alone.

"Sex". After listening to their report on today's work and looking at the account books and pointing out a few deficiencies, Shangguan Qi took Chunhe and Qiuyun out of Bihen Tower and went straight to the slave market.

The slave market was the place that Chunhe recommended to Shangguan Qi after she had the idea of ​​cultivating her own powerful people. Because the people sold in the slave market were those who voluntarily sold themselves into slaves because of poverty or who had to sell themselves into the slave market because of their poor family circumstances.

There are all kinds of slaves here, and another advantage is that all slaves have their memories erased by their slave owners after they are sold, and it will take thirty years to recover their memories. Therefore, people who buy slaves don’t have to worry about themselves.

What are the evil intentions of the slaves who were bought back, because their memories are as clean as a piece of white paper, just waiting for their masters to paint on them. Even if the slaves recover their memories thirty years later, after so many years of transformation and washing,

Well, even those who happen to have hatred will be worn away by such a long time.

As soon as the three of them entered the slave market, people immediately surrounded them like stars over the moon, recommending their own products to them, because judging from their clothes and demeanor, they knew that they must be from a wealthy or wealthy family.

people.

"Master, he is so pitiful." Chunhe saw a little boy of five or six years old curled up and sitting on the ground dirty, with his hands and feet still chained, and he couldn't help but feel pity. Looking at the little boy

Black eyes and distressed words called to Shangguan Qi who was walking in front.

"Huh?" He raised his eyebrows and turned around. At Chunhe's signal, he also saw the little boy. Seeing that he was still chubby and the scars were still new, he knew that this must be a new slave. And the little boy

Although they were young, their demeanor could still be seen vaguely between their brows. It must have been that one of the family members was in trouble, and their children and grandchildren had no choice but to be sold into the slave market.

"Sir, this is the new one. Why don't I bring it over for you to have a look at." Seeing that Shangguan Qi and his party were focusing their attention on the new little slave, the slave owner with a big belly couldn't help but grinned and approached him.

.

"No need." She raised her hand to stop his movement. Then she raised her legs and walked towards the little boy. "What's your name?" She knelt down and looked at him.

"I...I don't know." The little slave had never seen such a beautiful man before. He was stunned for a moment. Then he stuttered and spoke. There was no fear in his dark eyes, only Shangguan Qi was dressed in red.

A fairy-like figure.

"Boss, how do you sell it?" Attracted by the child's clear eyes, Shangguan Qi decided to buy him back with his own money. Then he slowly trained him. After all, after experiencing so many things, a pair of eyes can still be as clean as water.

It is rare.

"Back to you, sir, thirty taels." The boss rubbed his hands and looked at Shangguan Qi with salivation.

"Huh." He sneered, opened the fan in his hand, and looked into the distance with deep eyes. "He is just a child. I bought him back. He can't work or warm the bed. I just look at him.

Only when you are pitiful can you feel pity. The boss is so open-mouthed, it seems he doesn't want me to take this kid back."

"No, no, look at what you said. How dare you?" The boss wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Shangguan Qi with fear in his eyes. The smile on his lips just now actually made him feel

He felt the awe-inspiring aura, so he said a lot of respect. "But Master, this kid is not bad looking. When he grows up, he will also be a seductress!" There are also people in Xuanyuan Kingdom who are popular in the Longyang aura in private. The boss saw that

Shangguan Qi was so beautiful in his red robe that he didn't look like a real person. She thought he was good at this, so she spoke.

"Oh? Do you think he can grow up in your hands?" He glanced sideways at him, then looked into the distance again, "Fifty taels of silver. You can figure it out yourself."

"Five...five taels!" The boss immediately grimaced. He looked at the child on the ground and sighed. In fact, what he said was right. If it were placed in his hands, the child might not live long.

Maybe he will get weak and die before he is fattened up. And raising him up and raising him well is probably another expense. Because no one will buy a person with scars all over his body to warm his bed.

You can't fight him, you can't starve him, and it's still unknown whether he will survive for a long time. Thinking about it carefully, it's better to sell it now. "Five taels, just five taels!" Even if it's a companion business, and it's in front of you.

The young master's eyebrows are full of majesty, and he will never suffer a loss if you follow him. Maybe he can fish for a big fish in the long run and get a big owner.

"Qiuyun, give the money. Chunhe, take him away."

"Yes." The two of them had long felt sorry for the child, and now after hearing Shangguan Qi's words, they hurriedly rushed to ask for him. Chunhe didn't mind that he was dirty, so he asked the boss for a cleaner blanket and wrapped him in it.

He picked up the child's almost naked body and left. The child seemed to understand that he was out of the sea of ​​suffering, and a smile appeared on his dirty little face. His eyes were full of admiration and gratitude.

He looked at Shangguan Qi in front of him.

Along the way, Shangguan Qi bought five more slaves. Four boys and one girl, all of whom were slaves and looked ten years old. The oldest was only twelve years old. The reason why Shangguan Qi bought them was also very simple. First, because they

They have strong bones and are suitable for martial arts training. Secondly, they have the same thing in their eyes, unyielding and tenacious. Although their bodies are dirty and their clothes are not decent, they all walk behind Shangguan Qi with their heads held high.

, looking forward. Although their small bodies were covered with scars, they could not hide the light in their eyes.

From now on, they have a master! And their master is not like those lustful people, but a handsome young master like an immortal! And when the young master just spent money to buy them, he didn't bargain at all. This

It made them feel warm in their hearts, and they gradually developed a sense of loyalty and loyalty.

"From today on, I am your master." In the inn, Shangguan Qi looked at the six little guys after taking a bath, and raised the corners of her lips with satisfaction. It seemed that she still had the potential to be a talent scout, so she bought these few

All the little guys have beautiful features, red lips and white teeth. They must have grown up to be handsome and extraordinary figures.

"I've met the master!" A child's voice, either strong or childish, sounded in the room, making the three of them laugh at the same time. However, Shangguan Qi only slightly curled his lips, because he knew that this meant that they accepted her. If

If she smiles too cheerfully, she will break their hearts.

"Well, from today on, you will be called Yuhun, Yuying, Yupo, Yumo, Yuxin, and Yuluo." His eyes swept over them one by one, and then he said. "You are still young now.

So I will send teachers to give you skills for you to learn. When you grow up, I will arrange things for you. So in the past few years, you can just study with peace of mind."

"Yes!" Several people said in unison, not caring at all what Shangguan Qi wanted them to do.

"Well, let's eat first. You are all very hungry," he said with a smile when he saw their eyes glancing at the food on the dining table.

"I..." Several little guys looked at each other and did not dare to come forward. Only the youngest Yupo walked towards Shangguan Qi with gleaming eyes, tugged on his clothes, and asked innocently, "Master, can I really eat it?"

What?" He is so hungry!

"Haha, of course." Seeing that the dirty little boy had become so beautiful in an instant, Shangguan Qi couldn't help but happily picked him up and put him on his lap. Then he picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it on his lap.

In his mouth. "Does it taste good?" Seeing his little mouth moving, he asked softly.

"Yes!" Yupo nodded. Then he picked up his chopsticks and started eating. When the other children saw this, they also gathered around, picked up the bowls and chopsticks that Chunhe and Qiuyun had prepared long ago, and started to eat happily.

"In a moment, you take them back to Bihen Tower first. I have some important things to do." Shangguan Qi turned around and told Chunhe and Qiuyun.

"Yes, please be careful, Master." The two of them bowed, then walked up to the table and served dishes to the little guys.

After eating, Shangguan Qi said goodbye to a few people at the door of the inn, and then walked around the imperial city alone, waving a fan, hoping to find some talented person. But after wandering around for a long time, he didn't find what he liked.

So I was ready to go back home and try my luck again the next day. But as soon as I turned around and entered a sparsely populated alley, I was shocked by the scene in front of me.

A man in black was standing alone in an alley with a sword in his hand. Beside him, several men in black were standing with swords in the same clothes. The two sides seemed to be confronting each other. Then, there was a flash of sword light, and the man holding the sword

The man cut one person's throat in an instant, and then several people started fighting.

The man holding the sword had the upper hand at first, but due to the large number of opponents and his excellent martial arts skills, he soon became passive. Shangguan Qi's sharp eyes caught the blood stains on the man's back. Although he was wearing black clothes,

But with her excellent eyesight, she still spotted it at a glance during the day.

"Tsk, tsk, your martial arts skills are so good even after being injured. If this man doesn't turn back, he would be really sorry for his ancestors." Hidden in the dark, looking at the man who was still fighting, Shangguan Qi shook his head and sighed.

"Who?" At this time, the man holding the sword had killed most of the people on the other side, and only one was still resisting him. Perhaps Shangguan Qi's sigh was too loud, so the man holding the sword twitched his ears and turned his head sharply.

He looked towards the corner where Shangguan Qi was hiding. This distraction gave the opponent an opportunity to take advantage. The only man left immediately jumped up and stabbed him with a sword. The man holding the sword was shocked and thought

He wanted to use his sword to hold it back, but there was so much blood behind him that he couldn't hold himself up and half-knelt on the ground.

"Whoosh -" the sound of an object tearing through the air came. There was only a sound of flesh breaking, and the man in black fell to the ground. His eyes were huge, obviously not believing that he had died like this. But in his mind

On his forehead, a carved suet jade hairpin stood proudly.

"I hate sneak attacks." Shangguan Qi walked out with a smile while shaking his paper fan. He looked at the corpse on the ground, then pulled out the hosta on his head and took out a clean silk handkerchief from his arms.

Wiping off the blood on the hairpin, he then turned to look at the man who was half-kneeling on the ground, leaning on his sword.

"It's for you." Although it was wiped clean, Shangguan Qi still thought it was dirty. He didn't want to carry it on his head anymore, but it would be a pity to throw it away, so he had to give it to this... cool guy in front of him.

The smooth and white face exuded an angular and cold look; the deep black eyes were filled with a condensed gaze; the sword-shaped eyebrows were set into the temples, the nose was high, and the knife-like water lips looked pale and weak due to lack of water. He was dressed in black.

The night clothes fit tightly against the body, and one can see that the strong figure under the clothes exudes a hint of wildness. His face looks slightly pale due to excessive blood loss, but he still looks like a handsome man.

.

"Who are you?" He ignored the hosta and looked at the man in front of him coldly, with ice appearing in his eyes. If he hadn't made a sound that disturbed his mood just now, then he wouldn't have...

"Is this the tone you use when treating your benefactor?" He put away the hosta, turned the fan in his hand, and finally landed on the man's head. Seeing the sword in his hand move, he sneered, "What? He became so angry that he wanted to kill him.

Did you kill me?"

Facing the purple eyes of the man in front of me, I lost my soul for a moment. He has wandered around the world for many years and killed countless people, but he has never seen a pair of eyes that can be as beautiful as this, or as deep as this.
To be continued...
