Youxu Hexu

Ji Qinglan stood at the bridge and looked at the sun.

The setting sun hanging in the west is like a person entering the age of seventy, aging, and the light is gradually dimming.Everyone will have such a day, some people are faster, some people are slower, some are destined, and some are deliberate.In fact, they are all the same.

People, after all, cannot escape death.

Throughout the ages, how many unworldly emperors who sit in the mountains and rivers, how many unworldly saints who have both ability and political integrity are the same.

Liu Tan had been standing behind him for a long time.He didn't know how long he would have to stand, he only knew that his legs were numb.But he didn't dare to move, because the person in front of him controlled his life and death.

"Tomorrow is the deadline." Ji Qinglan said softly.

Liu Tan breathed a sigh of relief, and said with an apologetic smile, "Don't worry, my lord, I've put the poison in the green salt. As you said, first check which two rooms have no dust on the tables and floors, and then look at which room is free of dust. If you can't find the box for the antidote, don't take the medicine. If there is only one room that is dust-free, don't take the medicine. I keep it firmly Remember."

Ji Qinglan nodded.

He guessed that with Ji Miaohua's wariness towards him, he would never hand over the antidote easily, so he asked Liu Tan to find the box containing the antidote first after going up the mountain.As long as Duanmu Huichun is by his side, Ji Miaohua will not take that box of antidote too seriously.As expected, he put the antidote in the drawer in the room.In this way, it can be concluded that Duanmu Huichun is in another clean room that often comes and goes.

Afterwards, in order to prove that his judgment was correct, he asked Duanmu Huichun whether Ji Miaohua would give him the antidote, and he got a negative answer.

In this way, Duanmu rejuvenation poisoning will be safe.Even if Ji Miaohua didn't give him the box of so-called antidote, even if Duanmu Huichun didn't take the antidote he gave, the poison hidden in the green salt would still accumulate and slowly kill him!

Green salt is only used to gargle, and the toxicity spreads slowly.If Duanmu Huichun found out that he was poisoned, he would probably think that he had been poisoned by the Zhenxin Pill. At that time, the most likely thing he would do was to take the antidote he gave him or Ji Miaohua gave him the antidote.In either case, it will only hasten the death of Duanmu Huichun.

"My lord, why do you want Duanmu to rejuvenate and die?" Liu Tan endured for a long time, but still couldn't help asking this question.

Ji Qinglan said: "Duanmu Huichun was snatched by Ji Miaohua in front of everyone in the Demon Cult. If he died, the Demon Cult would never give up with Ji Miaohua. At that time, Ji Miaohua would have to join hands with the Holy Moon Sect in order to protect herself. His martial arts and scheming are top-notch, and with him around, I can leave with peace of mind."

Liu Tan said: "Actually, the Devil's Cult once intended to defuse the conflict, why didn't you allow it?"

Ji Qinglan glanced at him sideways.

Liu Tan hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to speak any more.

"Do you think the Devil's Cult is good?" Ji Qinglan said, "Before, because their elders fell into the hands of the Shengyue Sect, they had to be submissive. If Duanmu Huichun returns safely, with Mingzun's personality of vengeance, it will be inevitable. This debt will be recovered a thousand times. The Blue Flame League is a lesson from the past."

Liu Tan didn't dare to say anything else, he said repeatedly: "It's very, very, my son is far-sighted."

Ji Qinglan sighed silently.

It's not that he hasn't thought about cooperating with the Demon Cult, but if the Demon Cult really wanted to fight against the Emperor, with their current strength plus the Huihuangmen, Xueyihou, and King Lingyang, they would have been able to do so long ago.But the Demon Cult has not taken any action, both openly and secretly, which shows that they have no intention of entangled with the emperor at all.Mingzun is not Sinha, he will not go to war because of his few words, so he has no choice but to use Jing Ke's stupid method of assassinating Qin to get close to the emperor.This was the worst move in his plan.

Ah Huan ran out of the corridor in a hurry.

Ji Qinglan looked back at Liu Tan.

Liu Tan sensibly left in the other direction.

"My lord, something is wrong!" Ah Huan rushed up to the bridge and said anxiously, "Ji Miaohua is mobilizing all the forces in the Jueying Peak area to arrest you."

"Really?" Ji Qinglan said indifferently.

Ah Huan said: "He also sent people to Shengyue Sect."

Ji Qinglan frowned slightly and said, "Go to Shengyue Sect?"

Ah Huan said: "I heard that he sent someone to send a message that if Shengyue Cult doesn't hand you over, he will lead people to destroy Shengyue Cult himself."

Ji Qinglan's face darkened!

Ji Miaohua's move is clearly telling him that he is definitely not someone who follows in other people's footsteps and submits obediently.However, Shengyue Sect is half of Ji Miaohua's roots, and he doesn't believe that Ji Miaohua will uproot herself for a Duanmu rejuvenation.

"Young master!" Ah Pei yelled and rushed over, his expression extremely frightened and angry, "I heard that Ji Miaohua said that you poisoned his sweetheart, is that true or not?"

A Huan didn't wait for Ji Qinglan to speak, and slapped her across the face, "Presumptuous!"

A Pei caressed his face, his eyes still fixed on Ji Qinglan stubbornly.

Ji Qinglan said: "If you say Duanmu rejuvenates, yes."

A Pei lost his voice: "Master, why did you kill him?"

Ji Qinglan turned around, walked slowly to the bridge railing, put her hands on the railing, and looked up at the sky.The setting sun was getting dimmer, and the afterglow was like blood.

"Because I want revenge." His tone was so calm, as if the word revenge had penetrated into his bone marrow and blood, becoming a part of his life.

A Pei tremblingly said: "But Duanmu Huichun is innocent."

"There are many innocent people in this world." Ji Qinglan said, "People die every day in the Jianghu, and so do the Yamen. How many of them are really innocent?"

A Pei shouted: "But none of them are Duanmu Huichun!"

Ah Huan hugged her tightly, hugging her shoulders tightly.

Ji Qinglan said: "It can be seen that in your heart, people are also divided into different classes."

Ape was speechless.

Ji Qinglan said: "Me too. So I want to take revenge, either by any means or by any means..."

"My lord!" Ah Huan was shocked.

The corners of Ji Qinglan's mouth curled up slightly, as if mocking but not mocking.

A Pei also seemed to be taken aback, and murmured: "Why bother, my lord?"

Ji Qinglan said: "I not only avenge my master, but also my mother and myself. Since I was sensible, I have lived in hatred, and revenge is my only purpose and hope."

Ah Huan said: "Young master, what do you mean by saying that you want to avenge your mother?"

Ji Qinglan's eyes moved, and he said after a while: "My mother is Concubine Lan. If she is still alive now, she will be the Empress Dowager."

A Huan and A Pei were stunned.

"But isn't Concubine Lan the biological mother of King Lingyang?" Ah Huan asked in shock.

Ji Qinglan nodded, "But I am not a descendant of a dragon or a phoenix. She was over forty years old when she gave birth to me. The first emperor came to the throne, and she was revered as a concubine. I am the child of my mother's misbehavior. Fortunately, my mother is near It was winter when she gave birth, she was wearing thick clothes, and the late Emperor seldom visited her, so she got away with it."

"I heard that the palace is very dangerous, why didn't she fight..." Ape was halfway through speaking, consciously slipping his words, and hurriedly closed his mouth.

Ji Qinglan turned a deaf ear and continued: "But the good times didn't last long. The late emperor came to the throne not long ago, and the country was not yet stable. His biggest thorn in the flesh at that time was King Lingyang. For this reason, he spread eyeliner widely in the harem, monitoring my mother day and night, in case She had a secret relationship with King Lingyang, which was not good for him. Later, the sound of a baby crying in the palace reached his ears. He threatened and lured the maid in my mother's palace to tell the whole story, so he wanted to use me to blackmail my mother , and then use my mother to restrain King Lingyang. At that time, my mother was very strict with him, and he had no chance to take advantage of it, so she wanted to use my master's status as an imperial physician and sent him to steal me out. But the master pitied me for being young, not only did He handed me over to him, and even took me away from the palace secretly. My mother was afraid that the first emperor would become angry and use her to harm King Lingyang, so she committed suicide."

Ah Huan and A Pei were so engrossed that even the sound of breathing became lighter.

"You should know what happened later. King Lingyang thought it was Master who killed my mother, and has been sending people to track down our whereabouts. And the first emperor was also very concerned about this matter. Even after he died, his son would not let him go. Pass us." After Ji Qinglan finished speaking, she let out a long breath of relief.This matter has been hidden in his heart for so many years, except for the master, no one can tell it. Now that he finally said it, it was like venting out the stuffy breath in his chest, and he felt extremely comfortable.

A Pei and A Huan looked at each other.

A Huan said: "We have been with the young master since we were young, but we never knew that there is such a relationship."

Ji Qinglan said: "I'm all about taking revenge, but Master didn't allow me to take revenge. At that time, he asked me to choose between medical skills and martial arts. I chose martial arts, and it's too early to practice martial arts. If I don't know martial arts, I will only hurt Master."

A Pei said: "Young master, I know that revenge is not easy, but why must it be Duanmu Huichun? He came from a demon sect and has nothing to do with the emperor. Can you let him go?"

Ji Qinglan turned her head back, smiling warmly, but her words were extremely cold, "If he chose you back then, maybe I would let him go for your sake, but now, he must die."
