Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 1643 Dark River
Seeing this scene, Zhao Guang couldn't help frowning.

Ying Xun is Ying Baoyue's cousin, and his conduct is not bad, and he left a good impression on him in Nanchu.But Huo Zhan's actions at this time made him feel disgusted with both of them.

Ying Baoyue worked so hard to hang the rope up. It would be fine if she told her cousin to go up first, but Ying Baoyue didn't say anything, so why did you grab it?
Of course, in a crisis situation, it is normal for people to lose their composure in their eagerness to survive, but the way Huo Zhan looked at Gui Chen when he snatched the rope from Gui Chen made Zhao Guang very uncomfortable.

"Hey," Zhao Guang stepped forward and grabbed the rope, "Why did you two go up first? Did you make any contribution just now?"

Unexpectedly being questioned, Huo Zhan slightly opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

For him, it is only natural for Ying Xun to come first in everything.

When many people travel, he has long been used to putting Ying Xun first in everything. This point has never been questioned, but it has made him more praised, and it has become the reason why he will always be arranged to stay by Ying Xun's side.

Looking at the other foreigners behind Zhao Guang with unfriendly expressions, Huo Zhan suddenly realized that not all people around him and Ying Xun were from the former Qin Dynasty this time.

This group of people are from different countries and have different identities. When they stood behind Ying Baoyue before, they seemed to make people forget this. They looked like the former Qin survivors who surrounded Ying Xun in Southern Chu They are no different.

After Ying Baoyue left, the group of people seemed sharp again.

Zhao Guang made him unable to get off the stage in public. Huo Zhan wanted to get angry, but his eyes touched the county king Yupei beside the opponent's waist, and the anger in his chest dropped like a punctured blister in an instant.

Even though his words and deeds do not have the slightest nobility and manners of the royal family, Zhao Guang is the county king proclaimed by the King of Soochow after all. In order for Ying Xun to ascend the throne smoothly in the future, he cannot offend the younger brother of the King of Soochow.

Sensing Huo Zhan secretly looking at Zhao Guang, Li Ji narrowed his black eyes and his breath became cold.

When he was with Ying Baoyue, for some reason, her aura softened the aura of the people around him, which made him often forget that in fact, a real family member should be like Huo Zhan.

Sensing that the aura of other people around the rope became bad, Huo Zhan suddenly felt a little helpless.

At this moment, only him and Ying Xun were the pure former Qin people under the ice waterfall. No, there was obviously another one.

Huo Zhan took a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart. He covered the wound on his chest and smiled humbly and helplessly at Zhao Guang.

"His Royal Highness, you are right, I am really ashamed that I did not help much just now."

There were scratches and sword wounds everywhere on Huo Zhan's body, and there was no good place. Zhao Guang didn't think about forcing such a seriously injured person to do anything, and his brows frowned even more upon hearing this.

He glanced at the person standing behind Huo Zhan. Ying Xun's injuries were much lighter than Huo Zhan's, but Huo Zhan's words did not mean to ask Ying Xun to do anything.

If it were at any other time, Zhao Guang would still think that Huo Zhan's loyalty to the Lord is commendable.But looking at Huo Zhan, who was covered in injuries and desperately grabbing the rope, and Ying Xun who was silent behind him, Zhao Guang always felt that something was weird.

This is a kind of awkwardness that I can't feel at all when I'm with Ying Baoyue.

Probably because he himself is an unpopular alien in the royal family, and he has never enjoyed the treatment of being meticulously protected by others.

"I'm not asking you to do something," Zhao Guang said with a strange feeling in his heart, frowning at Huo Zhan, "it's just why you two should go first, can't you just wait?"

Why?Of course, he is the most honorable by virtue of his eldest son status...

Just as Huo Zhan was about to blurt out his words, he caught sight of Yeluhua standing beside Meng Shi.

The corners of Huo Zhan's eyes twitched. Although Zhao Guang is the king of the county, his bloodline is only a bastard in a single round, and he is no match for Ying Xun.

But Yeluhua is the eldest son of the king of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and has been named the crown prince. With Yeluhua here, he really can't confidently say that Ying Xun has the most honorable status.

Huo Zhan secretly gritted his teeth. It was all due to Ying Hanri and his father who killed his brother and usurped the throne for losing the throne. Otherwise, as an orthodox prince, why should Ying Xun suffer such grievances in front of these princes and princes?

Although he knew he was wrong, Huo Zhan felt angry again when he saw Gui Chen standing in front of the rope.

"It's true that I'm not qualified to ask to go first," Huo Zhan gave Gui Chen a sharp look, "but why should he go first?"

Before Zhao Guang could answer, Huo Zhan looked at Gui Chen and said coldly, "Guichen, have you forgotten who you are?"

If it is said that Zhao Guang and the others are from other countries and lack respect for Ying Xun, it is fine, but as a former Qin person, Gui Chen dared to take the lead in front of Ying Xun, Huo Zhan simply felt that it was ridiculous.

Where did you Guichen have such a big face?
Gui Chen paused while holding the rope, and looked back at this strange yet familiar childhood friend.

"Hmph, do you still know how to look back?" Seeing that there was no shame in Gui Chen's eyes, Huo Zhan was furious, and his voice became colder.

"You have lost all the face of Guijia. If the old general Gui is still alive, he will be ashamed of a descendant like you who is disrespectful to the lord!"

Hearing Huo Zhan mention his deceased grandfather, Gui Chen clenched his fists tightly.

Ji Jiashu just let him go first, he was indeed a little panicked, but he knew Ji Jiashu's intentions.I have the lowest state, and it is useless to stay below, so I might as well go up to accompany Ying Baoyue first.

Huo Zhan was seriously injured, if he wanted to go first, Gui Chenben had no objection, but at this moment his gaze also turned cold.

"Master Huo, what you said is wrong," Gui Chen said flatly, "My lord is not here."

Ying Xun was taken aback when he heard this.

Gui Chen looked at the top of the ice waterfall, and said calmly, "My lord is only one person, and he is on the top of the ice waterfall."

"You!" Huo Zhan was stunned. Although he returned home and did not come to Southern Chu with Ying Xun, he has loyally served the person sitting on the throne for generations.

The veterans of the former Qin Dynasty had always been confident that if Ying Xun ascended the throne and returned home, they would definitely surrender. Huo Zhan did not expect that Guichen, as the son of returning home, would dare to deny Ying Xun as the king in public.

"Are you crazy? Even if you are the iron guard of the princess, the eldest son is..."

Huo Zhan didn't believe that Guichen didn't understand what he meant.Gui Chen swore an iron guard oath to Ying Baoyue, so he is the iron guard of the Ying clan, and Ying Xun, as the only male in the long house, is undoubtedly the future head of the Ying clan.

That is to say, from the point of view of patriarchal clan, the person who wins the moon is the person who wins Xun.

However, before he could finish speaking, Gui Chen interrupted Huo Zhan, "I have made it very clear, I am a courtier of His Highness Baoyue, but only her courtier."

The rest of the Ying clan has nothing to do with him.

Even whether Ying Baoyue's surname is not Ying has nothing to do with him.

But he knew that Huo Zhan's head couldn't and wouldn't understand his thoughts, so Gui Chen ignored Huo Zhan, whose eyes were as big as copper bells, and Ying Xun, who was watching him with a complicated expression, and grabbed the rope to look after himself. climb up.

"You villain who committed chaos! Have you learned all the etiquette? You..."

Huo Zhan's cursing stopped abruptly, as if someone had covered his mouth.

Gui Chen didn't look back, he knew that someone below would stop Huo Zhan.If Huo Zhan didn't know how to dare to insult Ying Baoyue, he would only die faster among them.

Regardless of whether Ying Baoyue is Ying Baoyue or not, they will not let her suffer.

"Achen!"

Ying Baoyue's voice came from above, and Gui Chen moved briskly, crawling towards the place where his lord was, but at this moment, there was a crackling sound from below, which was originally quiet.

"Wait, there's a river down here?"

river?
Gui Chen's scalp went numb, and he lowered his head to look down.

　To be honest, under the background of the times at that time, Huo Zhan was considered a normal person. Needless to say, there was a big difference in treatment between Jia Baoyu and Jia Huan in "Dream of Red Mansions". Imperial.For example, Jiashu and Zhao Guang grew up in somewhat unusual environments. Huo Zhan can only say that they were raised relatively normally.
