My house was confiscated and I was exiled. I emptied the emperor's warehouse and fled.

Su Yunwan noticed the light in the cave and used her mental power to move towards the cave.

In the cave, Qingxuan was holding a cane and mercilessly slapping the kneeling man on the back.

Every time the rattan was applied to the body, a new swelling mark appeared on the back, and a few drops of blood oozed out.

The entire back of the kneeling person was already covered with such scars, which was shocking.

Suddenly, Qingxuan rounded his arms and exerted all his strength, waving the cane and falling diagonally.

The place where the rattan bites the body overlaps with all the horizontal scars before, and a deep blood mark is instantly drawn.

"Yeah!" The kneeling man jumped forward and put his arms on the ground to stop his fall. A trace of bright red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

When he raised his head, Su Yunwan was shocked. It was him!

"Who!" Qingxuan suddenly shouted, his sharp gaze directed at the entrance of the cave.

Ling Qi, who was on the side, immediately pulled out his long sword and chased him out to investigate.

Wu Shaohan also stood up immediately, not caring to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and took a few steps forward to block Qingxuan in a defensive posture.

Soon, Ling Qi's surprised voice came from outside the cave: "Young madam, why are you here?"

Su Yunwan, who was wearing a crimson cloak, teleported here, with a frosty face, "Where is Qingxuan?"

"The commander is in the cave, please come with me." Lingqi reached out sideways and noticed that her dress was not stained by any rain or mud.

There is no place in the mountain forest that is not wet after the heavy rain. Even if you have great Qinggong skills, it will inevitably be stained with moisture. How did she get here?

Su Yunwan walked quickly, her shoes and skirt quickly got wet, and it didn't take long before she arrived at the cave.

"Young Madam." Qingxuan bowed his hands.

Su Yunwan's face was cold and she glanced at Wu Shaohan, who was standing quietly with his head bowed.

At this time, Wu Shaohan had wiped away the blood and cold sweat, but his face was still slightly pale.

She looked away and asked coldly: "Why did you summon Wu Shaohan in the middle of the night?"

Qingxuan's eyes flashed and he just said vaguely: "Business."

Su Yunwan did not chase after him to ask about any official business, but said coldly: "Is it done now?"

"It's over."

"Then Wu Shaohan, you go back to the temple first." Su Yunwan turned around and said.

Wu Shaohan noticed her hidden anger, so he could not rest assured that she was alone with her master. He only said: "I am waiting outside the cave, waiting for you to come back together."

"No need." Su Yunwan refused coldly.

Wu Shaohan did not insist anymore, bowed and exited the cave, but did not leave there. Instead, he hid in the dark and eavesdropped on the conversation in the cave.

His master was someone who dared to violate the old prince's prohibition. Facing the young lady's accountability, he might not do anything.

At this time, Su Yunwan saw Ling Qi exiting the cave and immediately asked: "Will all the shadow guards of the Qin family be driven by you for life?"

Qingxuan's posture was respectful, but what he said was exactly the opposite: "This question involves the secrets of the Shadow Guard Camp. Please forgive me for not being able to tell you."

"If you are in charge of the rewards and punishments of all shadow guards, including the master's personal shadow guards, wouldn't it be easy for you to overthrow the Qin family?" Su Yunwan sneered.

Qingxuan's nerves tensed up instantly and his face darkened, "You want to separate me from the master?"

"Separation?" Su Yunwan crossed her arms and said arrogantly, "Then guess, can I succeed?"

Qingxuan stared at Su Yunwan with dark and sharp eyes, his mind changing.

Su Yunwan met his gaze without fear, her eyes were very deep.

She is not Baosi, and Ziyuan is not King You of Zhou. There is no possibility of Feng Huo playing tricks on the princes.

But you still have to show off the momentum you should have.

Unexpectedly, the next second, she would break through.

Qingxuan locked his eyes with her and said, "Do you want to control the Shadow Guard Camp?"

"Ha!" Su Yunwan was confused, why did he think of this?

She really wants to have a group of thugs. If she has money and leisure, she can form one by herself. There is no need to instruct the Qin family's shadow guard camp.

In order to prevent unnecessary internal friction, she said directly: "I just want to know whether your punishment of Wu Shaohan has exceeded your authority."

Su Yunwan has been with Qin Junyi, and she is very sure that he did not give the order.

If Qingxuan can really make all the shadow guards around Qin Junyi obey his orders, then he will be a real and unnamed master, and this power will be too much!

Qingxuan frowned when he heard that she was complaining about Wu Shaohan: "You are here for Xiao Wu? Does the master know?"

"You haven't answered me yet." Su Yunwan avoided answering.

Qingxuan faced off for a few seconds, then straightened his back and said, "I am his master."

Su Yunwan's beautiful eyebrows jumped in surprise, "Don't the Shadow Guards only obey the orders of the family master? Can they also be apprentices?"

As the saying goes, "Once a teacher, always a father." If Qingxuan rebels, where will Wu Shaohan go?

Qingxuan still refused to answer on the grounds that it was confidential.

In fact, the leader of the Shadow Guard Camp does have great power. In addition to the Shadow Guard Camp, he also controls all the other Shadow Guards who have left the camp except the master.

Of course, all the previous commanders were people who were absolutely trusted by their masters. They spent their whole lives without wives and children, burning their lives for the Qin family.

It is precisely because of this that whenever the master is optimistic about the candidate for the next leader, he will order him to worship the leader as his disciple to show his inheritance.

In other words, it was Qin Junyi who asked Wu Shaohan to worship Qingxuan as his teacher, so there was no hidden danger of loyalty.

In order to cultivate qualified successors, successive leaders were extremely strict with their apprentices, and Qingxuan was no exception.

Whenever Wu Shaohan makes a mistake, no matter how big or small, he will be investigated and punished more severely to prevent recurrence.

This time the situation was special and foreign enemies needed to be resisted at any time, so he only fined him thirty canes so that Wu Shaohan could remember the lesson without affecting the use of force.

Su Yunwan didn't know all this, and she mistakenly thought that they were a normal master-disciple relationship.

It is only natural for a master to punish his disciples.

But she didn't back down: "Even if you are his master, you should put the overall situation first. Wu Shaohan wants to protect Ziyuan, and if you hurt him, you will indirectly weaken Ziyuan's guarding power."

When Qin Junyi was mentioned, there was an imperceptible tenderness in her eyes.

This was precisely caught by Qingxuan. His face brightened slightly, and he leaned over and said, "Yes, I will definitely pay attention to it in the future."

Su Yunwan then gave up, "Remember your words, I'm going back."

"Ling Qi, escort the young lady well." Qing Xuan sent her to the entrance of the cave and ordered Ling Qi.

"Yes." Lingqi leaned over to accept the order.

Su Yunwan said: "No need, I can just go back by myself."

After saying that, she twirled her cloak and turned to leave.

Ling Qi looked at her back disappearing into the forest, feeling lost in her heart.

"come out!"

Following Qing Xuan's order, Wu Shaohan emerged from the darkness, walked to him with his knees on the ground, and waited silently for his resignation.

Contrary to his will and eavesdropping on conversations are taboos, enough to cost him half his life.

However, Qingxuan asked: "Why is the young lady so interested in you?"

"The disciple doesn't know."

As soon as Wu Shaohan finished speaking, the rattan carrying his inner strength came out of the air.
