Enemies on a Narrow Road   

Su Li quickly control the heart from frightening, it does not seem to: “Martial arts. I look at the others such practice, how can I do, it seems not right.” having say that she raise her head,  meet Wan Xin sharp eyes, with a slight degree of observation. Lisu did not avoid looking and welcoming her. As she expected, Wan Xin is not an ordinary servant girl, and the martial arts, deep internal forces.

“Why did you suddenly think of martial arts? Before I teach you how, and you have refused to learn.” Wan Xin puzzled asked.

Su Li hanging eye replied: “In the past, I think the protection from you is enough; not learning is doesn’t matter. But this time I’m almost…… “   Here, she suddenly paused, it seems sad to not continue. Quietly looked, saw Wan Xin eyes of different colors across, fleeting. Like remorse, yet also seemed apologetic. Su Li bow, the corner of her mouth is not clearly seen a hook, half feel sad, and a half firmly said: “I do not want to be bullied like this, so I want to have the ability to protect myself.”

Wan Xin nod to approve, looking quietly pleased, “You finally figured out! I already told you, only you change to be strong, and have ability to live with dignity. Tonight you take a break, starting tomorrow, I’ll teach you to practice. “

Su Li was overjoyed: “Good!”

Wan Xin did not go back the next night, not only taught her internal strength heart formula, also impart relatively simple but very practical moves. Su Li is gifted in this respect, perception is extraordinary, and has many years of martial arts, no matter what moves now, learning is simply possible. For the Heart, after pointing slightly, first practice is rapid progress. Wan Xin is amazed, even praise: “In the past I did not see it, you’re a martial arts genius!”

Su Li was hesitate, worried that her performance is too much. Quickly look up; to see Wan Xin, it does not seem strange, she said: “Since my decision is to learn, of course, I have to heart.”

Wan Xin nodded, “That’s good. I can not always keep at your side, you can excel at a day early, and as early as the day I feel at ease. I hope that every day, you do not let me down. “

With a little look in the eyes, sparking emotional heart Su Li. She straightened himself firmly replied: “I’ll try.”

As if eyes are like stars brightly shines, emit the will to fight, as well as the force of self-confident.

Wan Xin slightly froze for a moment, staring into her eyes and said: “You’ve changed!”

Su Li replied: “People always change. Especially after experiencing life and death. I used to think, always be patient, always in exchange for quiet, but actually I am not. Good people are being bullied, the more you are timid, and more of people will step on your head! It would be better to find ways to make yourself become stronger, but still you can retain dignity for yourself even if in the future is death. “

This is her truth. Before returning to Xiang fu, she thought of disguise, in a coward surface, to hide the true nature, so it won’t cast a doubt. However, in front of Wan Xin rather than to disguise, she might as well do it herself calmly, more likely to be trusted.

This world, the strong respect.

“Do you think it is a good thing.” sharp eyes gradually fading,  Wan Xi in deep tone said: “But remember, before you stand in the Prime Minister’s palace youhave to be sure that you have enough secure to foothold, you must not easily reveal the martial arts!”

This is natural. More than anyone she is more aware of this.

This night time is very fast. Along with Wan Xin, and gradually it becomes natural. And each night thereafter, there are progresses, within a few days, Su Li torn feel the body infuriating swing surplus, which made her amazed. To her knowledge, common internal organs Heart, attend at least several months, in order to have this effect. She do not know Wan XIn teaching, exactly what kind of internal strength method, Su Li in such poor physical fitness, but the turn out is also can actually so rapid!

Early morning the sun shines brightly with person, shabby small courtyard, tiny gra.s.s drilled from the crevice of stones, look tenacious and blooming.

Early in the morning Su Li called Mo Xiang to accompany her to go out. This Xiang fu, although not as big as the Regent Palace bizarre, but also has a complex terrain, numerous courtyards, if she is not much familiar, lost in their own house in the future, it may be justified

In a circle around the backyard and they found out that today’s garden is exceptionally quiet, the only crowded is kitchen. Dozen numbers of people are busy; it is like the emperor or from the Royal family will come to visit.

“Today our residence has guest? You know who is?” Walking in the garden path, Su Li asked, puzzled.

Mo Xiang want to talk, she said these things, quickly replied: “I heard that today Master invite w.a.n.g Zhenning for dinner, now the entire Xiang fu people talking about First Miss can possibly go to marry w.a.n.g Zhenning Palace!”

At one step she stop, Su Li inside of her mind emerge a handsome and exquisite face, an honorable man but unmatched momentum……

Dongfang Ze kind of man, he can possibly marry Su Qin to be w.a.n.g Fei ? Su Li slightly surprised, turned around and asked: “My father, when he came back?”

“Last night.” Mo Xiang in low voice, in front someone shouted right away:“Hey! Who is this?”

The sharp high-pitched of female voice, breaking the quiet garden. Su Qin in a red dress, colorful. Waist swing, in hand is cattail-leaf fan lightly shaken, since believe graceful, twisting all the way over. Face carefully painted over, it is also regarded as sort of pretty, but compared to Su Li, but far worse. Without that birthmark……

Su Li unconsciously brows wrinkled, truly the fate is unfavorable, casually walk to go, but also caught by demon personifying pestilence. She does not want to cause trouble, so she intends to avoid. To see Su Li indifferent look, not like the past she saw her feel fear. Sudden heart unhappy, head denounced: “The lady talks to you too! How dare you ignore!”

The fan in hands unceremoniously comes to hit her face.

Su Li vision sank; subconsciously want to seize Su Qin’s hand, but Mo Xiang pulled her back. Su Qin hit failed, fires flee from the heart is approaching, she cursed: “d.a.m.n girl!” Toward winking, the two maidservants’ immediately stepped forward behind Mo Xiang to grasp both arms and severely slapped Mo Xiang face continuously.

With enough effort.

Ray of bloods leaking from mouth, and soon both of her cheeks is swollen such as bread. Mo Xiang did not say anything, obviously accustomed to being bullied. Su Li is not used to, the two men frown on that snapped: “Stop!”

Such cold voice with great power and influence. It shook the two maidservants to stopped the action, extremely surprised to look up to see the pair of eyes of her  such as  cold as an ice , all of there body flick, unexpectedly unaware they stop to continue and withdraw.

Su Qin also intimidated, opens mouth, she is like watching a stranger. Since the last time this girl woke up, it seems not the same as before! Actually dare to talk to her! Su Qin round eyes stare angrily said: “A few days gone, you seem to have changed much! You have some guts? Dare in front of the lady to speak with this tone, what do you want to do? “
