Tang riddles

Chapter 180

Li Jinyue's 30th birthday was very simple. Fan Yang's current situation is tense. She shoulders the important task of controlling the Xue family army and governing Youzhou. Before the appointment of the sage, she was the highest official of Youzhou.She has no time to celebrate her birthday, but is busy in the military camp, dealing with various important matters.

She hasn't spoken to Yang Yuhuan since she was brought back.It's not that I don't want to, but that I really don't have the time.The little girl seemed to feel guilty, and she had been obediently staying in her tent for the past few days, never showing up.

On the morning of her birthday, Li Jinyue welcomed new visitors—Li Jilan and Li Changyun.Seeing the Li family, Li Jinyue thought of the absurd marriage her father bestowed on her. Fortunately, Li Changxue did not follow the etiquette, otherwise she would be even more embarrassed.But today, the uncle and niece came for the arrested "Blood Pope" Bai Liuniang.

Li Jinyue brought them to Bai Liuniang's prison car, and Li Jilan asked her where Lady Yan was.The Blood Pope laughed out loud. She seemed to think this question was so funny that she couldn't stop laughing wildly and shed tears.

"Are you asking me where is a person who has been dead for five or six years, or where is the person who once wore the skin of Mrs. Yan?" Bai Liuniang finally stopped laughing and said.

Li Jilan's complexion paled instantly.

"Ms. Yan died five or six years ago. She left nothing behind. The only thing left is her identity, an identity that can be used. Li Jilan, in the past five or six years, I'm afraid you have nothing to lose." Maybe you didn't realize it. And that poor Pei Min, who was so in love, turned into nothingness."

"But she... According to the intelligence, she is a fake saint, she..." Li Jilan spoke intermittently, unable to form a sentence.

"Hahahaha..." Bai Liuniang laughed wildly again, "The fake is the real and the real is the fake, the real is the fake, can you make it clear? Hahahaha..."

Li Jilan felt that the world was spinning, she staggered back two steps, and was supported by Li Jinyue.Li Jinyue sighed and said:

"My condolences, Li Daochang..."

"I don't believe it...I don't believe it..." Li Jilan shook her head, "Sister Yi, how could she..."

"She is a useless person. The only useful thing is her identity. What's the point of keeping her? It will increase the chance of exposure." Bai Liuniang said.

"Shut up!" Li Jinyue reprimanded, then called her subordinates to help Li Jilan leave here.Li Changyun stood silently by the side, finally let out a long sigh, didn't say anything, just bowed to Li Jinyue, and left generously.

Li Jinyue sighed in her heart. After sending away Li's uncle and niece, she sat alone in the camp for a long time, ignoring all military affairs and government affairs.She nestled on the camp couch, extremely sleepy, but she could not fall asleep with her eyes open.She thought she would stay awake all the time, but strangely, she still fell asleep, having a dream, and dizzy after waking up.Look at the clepsydra, it's no longer time.

She didn't even eat lunch, she felt empty in her stomach at this moment, got up to leave the tent, and the full moon had already appeared in the eastern sky.Cheng Yan and Xu Jie were waiting outside the tent, seeing her come out, Xu Jie smiled and said:

"Princess, Mr. Bo Zhao and his wife are here and are waiting for the banquet."

Li Jinyue smiled and said, "Okay, I'll change clothes and go."

When Li Jinyue walked into the banquet tent, she saw Shen Suizheng and Zhang Ruohan taking out the food from the food box and setting the table. Hearing the sound of opening the curtain, Shen Sui turned around and said with a smile:

"Maomao, you've woken up. Come on, we made these for you with our own hands, and they are all your favorites. There are also moon cakes, stuffed with jujube paste. You still have military affairs, and we didn't prepare them for you. For wine, Xie Niang made milk tea, it was delicious."

Shen Sui babbled like presenting treasures, but Zhang Ruohan didn't say a word, just kept busy with a smile.Li Jinyue came over to tease Shen Sui and said:

"Nonsense, what did you do with your own hands? It was clearly done by Maid Lotus. I don't know your cooking skills?"

"Hey, hey, you're too much. I came here specially to celebrate your birthday, and you still hate me so much." Shen Sui pretended to be angry, and punched Li Jinyue playfully.Xu Jie and Cheng Yan who followed behind couldn't help laughing.

The delicious food was put on the table and placed on the edge of the tent door. Li Jinyue ordered someone to open the curtain wide, so that the table was half open to the air, and the bright moon in the sky could be seen.Five people sat at the table, watched the moon, ate food, and chatted.

Li Jinyue first asked about the physical condition of Shen Sui and Zhang Ruohan. Apart from being weak, Shen Sui was fine. He was tired recently and needed to rest for a while.Everything is fine with Zhang Ruohan and the child in her womb. The child has grown up very fast, and has grown up a lot these days. Zhang Ruohan can already feel that her lower abdomen is hard and swollen.Now Zhang Ruohan looks more and more calm, and his body is gradually getting fuller. Compared with the thin and thin appearance before, it can be regarded as more reassuring.Li Jinyue only felt that she was getting more and more beautiful, the beauty was soft and gentle, the edges and corners of the past were all hidden, like a beautiful jade returning to its original nature.

Then, Shen Sui talked about the situation of Shen Jin and Qianhe.Shen Jin is not bad. Although she looks weak, she is actually tough and will not be easily defeated.It's just that the matter of Qianhe is really worrying. We must find the location of the cult's main altar as soon as possible, and find a way to get the antidote.

Li Jinyue also briefly talked about the current situation in the barracks, and the situation at the Jiedu Shifu in Youzhou after Xue Chuyu was gone.Xue Chuyu's deputy temporarily took over the Jiedu Mission's Mansion, but this person has no opinions and always consults Li Jinyue for everything, but now Li Jinyue has become the highest military and political officer in Youzhou.

Shen Sui thinks this is a good omen, so he must try his best to keep it.

Li Jinyue remembered what happened to Li Jilan this morning, sighed, and told Shen Sui.After hearing this, Shen Sui said:

"The identity of Mrs. Yan is indeed a good one to use. She is the elder of the Linyan family under my Thousand Feathers Sect. She has access to a lot of resources and information. Although because of personal ability, Mrs. Yan is not my Qianyu. After the case of the strange ape of kindness, the identity of Mrs. Yan was exposed and she lost her role. Our people chased her and lost her, and later there were rumors that someone saw her in Heshuo. Now that I think about it, I always I feel that this is a trap in itself, a trap that led us to go north to Youzhou. And the person who pretended to be Mrs. Yan's identity was so realistic that people who had been close to Mrs. Yan for many years could not recognize it. I believe that even There are very few people with such abilities in cults. Perhaps, this person has been lurking near us since he escaped our pursuit. When the Hanjiacang incident broke out, she took the opportunity to kill the bluebird and sneak into us by pretending to be a bluebird around."

"You mean the person pretending to be Mrs. Yan and the person pretending to be Blue Robin are the same person?" Li Jinyue wondered.

"I'm just guessing, and I can't confirm it." Shen Sui said, "But I have a strong feeling that they are probably the same person."

"Before you said that the senior leader of the cult who gave Bai Liuniang medicine to control Qianhe might be a person pretending to be a bluebird. After thinking about it, it is not easy for her to find an opportunity to give Bai Liuniang the medicine. After all, she has to be by Qin Nu's side all day, where does her opportunity come from?"

"She doesn't need to give it to Bai Liuniang in person, there is someone who can pass it on for her—Tang Shisan. Qian He was originally brought to Fan Yang by Tang Shisan. Perhaps Tang Shisan began to administer drugs and hypnotize Qian He on the way. After arriving in Fanyang, Bai Liuniang took over. Tang Shisan had too many opportunities to get in touch with this person, and he must have had contact with fake bluebirds. At that time, fake bluebirds were not fake bluebirds, and hadn’t sneaked into us yet. around."

Li Jinyue came to a sudden: "My thinking is rigid." After a while, she asked again:

"Speaking of Tang Shisan, do you have any news about him? And that Annayi."

"I'm ashamed to say that I haven't heard from them yet. Ever since Yu Baizhan's inn disappeared, Tang Shisan has disappeared. After Cui Zhenzhi's death, Anna Yi has also disappeared. We have searched here for a long time in Fan Yang. No one has ever seen them before. Maybe Tang Shisan used the secret way to send Qianhe into the underground of Fanyang Yahang, and there is no way to know about it." Shen Sui said.

"Will anyone fall for the trap you set in Huzhou?"

"There is no news yet." Shen Sui said.

Li Jinyue pondered for a moment, and said: "I still can't figure it out. What is the purpose of the cult trying to lure you and me to Youzhou? I sorted out all the things we encountered after we arrived in Fanyang. I really can't understand the purpose of the cult. .Is it just to help you and the lotus maid have a child?"

"I actually think that the children who made me and the lotus maid were just incidental to them. Their purpose is to destroy the Xue family and let you get the Xue family army." Shen Sui said.

"Me? Isn't it Bai Liuniang who wants to control Xue Jiajun? How does this have anything to do with me?" Li Jinyue was puzzled.

"Bai Liuniang is a victim of a fight. When gods fight, she will definitely lose if she gets involved. Fan Yang's trap was set for Bai Liuniang and Xue Shi at the same time. When a snipe and a clam fight, there will be a fisherman who will benefit. This fisherman It's us." Shen Sui said.

"I don't understand..." Li Jinyue's head grew dizzy, "How can a cult do things so unreasonably? And contradict themselves?"

"Mamao, the cult is not monolithic. I have the feeling that there are huge differences within the cult, especially in the strategy against us. I even suspect that this is the contradiction between the Pope and the saint. The six high priests of the cult The twelve popes are assigned, and the six priests must stand in line. Some support the saint, and some support the great pope. The water priest Anna Yi and Tang Shisan are the saints, and they have been guiding me to investigate the events of the year. But Bai Liuniang is not. She should belong to the Great Pope. The Great Pope tried his best to cover up what happened back then. The strange thing is that he never attacked me. I don’t know if it was because he was afraid of the saint or for other reasons. He wanted to take down Fan Yang , It is the Pope who controls the Xue family, but the saint set up a situation to spoil the good things of the Pope, and instead made us fisherman."

"In that case, it's a good thing for us." Li Jinyue laughed.

Shen Sui was not optimistic: "It's hard to say, everything is hard to say."

Seeing their conversation come to an end, Zhang Ruohan said:

"Okay, today is Mao Mao's birthday, so stop talking about it." She picked up a cup full of milk tea and said to Li Jinyue:

"Mamao, I offer you a toast, and to everything."

Li Jinyue smiled, with a gentle expression, picked up the cup, and said, "Respect everything."

The two drank at the same time.

Shen Sui sighed with a smile, inadvertently looked into the distance, but saw a small figure standing in the shadow of the corner of the opposite tent.She greeted a female soldier beside her, and pointed to the distance.The female soldier nodded and walked over. Not long after, she brought back a girl.

"Yuhuan?" Li Jinyue looked at her with a little surprise.

Yang Yuhuan lowered her head and grabbed her dress, looking guilty and ashamed.Shen Sui said gently and authentically: "You're hungry, come and eat something."

Li Jinyue's lips trembled slightly, and her throat moved.After a while, she stepped aside, moved to the side, asked someone to add a mat to her side, and said:

"Come and sit down. When you come, come out openly and hide."

Yang Yuhuan glanced at her timidly, walked over slowly, and sat down carefully beside her.Xu Jie and Cheng Yan looked at the girl with different expressions.Xu Jie frowned slightly, seemingly worried; Cheng Yan smiled, not paying attention.

Li Jinyue took a stack of mooncakes, put them in front of Yang Yuhuan, and said, "Try it, these are called mooncakes, have you eaten them before?"

Yang Yuhuan shook his head and said, "I've only heard of it, but never eaten it."

"Eat, sweet ones, you like them." Li Jinyue said.

Yang Yuhuan nodded obediently, picked up a piece, and took a small bite, but the brows were relaxed, and a smile slowly floated on her cheeks.

"The Mid-Autumn Festival is a very good festival. It can remind those who are parting that there is the same bright moon above their heads, and the pain can be comforted. Anyway, they are still alive, and there are still people who are nostalgic. They are not walking dead. Think about it. After a thousand years, this world will be Usually." Shen Sui said.

"Bo Zhao, what you said is the most unique birthday greeting I've ever heard. My birthday has been explained in this way, and it seems a bit remote and ancient." Li Jinyue laughed.

"There is a bright moon on the sea, and the sky is at this moment." Shen Sui raised his glass, Zhang Ruohan smiled knowingly, this person actually recited her father's poem at this moment, it's really naughty.So he also raised his glass.Li Jinyue, Xu Jie, and Cheng Yan then toasted together and said together:

"There is a bright moon on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time!"

After all, everyone drank the milk tea in their cups in one gulp.

From now on, the Mid-Autumn Festival has become Yang Yuhuan's favorite festival in this life.

……

After August [-]th, for several days in a row, Shen Sui stayed behind closed doors at the villa in the south of the city, seeing no one.Nobody knew what she was doing except the people around her.They knew that Shen Sui was waiting, waiting for a crucial news.

Five days later, on August [-]th, when a black-feathered swift eagle flew into the villa in the south of the city, the long-closed gate of the villa opened, and Shen Sui and his party, who had been prepared for a long time, embarked on the journey again.

They went all the way to the west, and met Li Jinyue who had been waiting here at the Shili Pavilion in the west of Fanyang City.He took over the prison car that Li Jinyue sent to detain Bai Liuniang.Shen Sui said goodbye to Li Jinyue.

"Mamao, it's been so many years, I don't know when we will see you again. Fortunately, I, Qianyumen, are well-versed in letters. I will write to you regularly. If you have any questions, ask me in the letter, and then hand it over to Feng Zijian to forward it to prevent leaks. .”

"I can save it." Li Jinyue nodded solemnly, "You have to pay attention to safety, whether you can find the cult general altar or not, you must cherish it, not only for yourself, but also for many people."

Shen Sui smiled and nodded.

"A few days ago, you sent Ying Niang to detoxify An and Shi, but I don't understand that you want me to use these two in the army." Li Jinyue asked.

"They are profit-seeking people. This kind of people are actually easy to control. They have brains and can be used by you. Especially An Lushan, he has strategies and ambitions. He will be a fierce general if he leads the right way."

"Okay, I see."

"Mamao, Fan Yang will be handed over to you, Yujie, and Cheng Yan. I hope I can hear good news from you."

"must."

"Not much to say, let's say goodbye, take care." Shen Sui clasped his fists and stepped on the horse.

"Treasure, Bo Zhao, you must take care of yourself and everyone." Li Jinyue stepped forward reluctantly.

"Treat Yang Yuhuan better, don't lose him again." Shen Sui finally looked back and joked with a smile, then rode away.

"Shen Bozhao! I'll wait for you to come back!" Li Jinyue stood on the spot and called out loudly.

Then she saw Shen Sui on the horse waving his whip.

Li Jinyue suddenly thought of a line of poem: Wave your hands and go, Xiao Xiao's team is called.

The author has something to say: the moon rises above the sea, and the world shares this moment.The lover complains about the moon, and lovesickness begins at night.When the candle is extinguished, the light is full of pity, and the clothes feel dewy.I can't bear the gift from surplus hands, and I have a good time for sleeping and dreaming. ——Zhang Jiuling "Looking at the Moon and Huai Yuan"

The reason why Shen Sui can read this poem is because she wants to say goodbye to Mao Mao, she comforts Mao Mao, at least they have a blue sky above their heads and share a bright moon.Maomao and Huanhuan will be offline for a while, goodbye, maybe it will be a long time.

Some epilogues are not clearly explained, and will be clarified in the next chapter.Then it will enter the second biography of "Tang Mystery" - "Huang Nirvana", which tells the growth experience of Chi, Lian and Yue after the fire in Princess Taiping's mansion 17 years ago.

I think I should divide "Longxi Ghost Dao: The Desert Chapter" into two parts. This volume is too long.
