scheming beauty online dress up poor

Yin Xiaokuang still hasn’t changed much. He squats in the yard during the day and kneads mud. At night, he starts going crazy as soon as he enters the house after eating something, shouting “Why don’t you kill me and kill Qin Xiao?” When shouting this sentence, it means that the consciousness is clear, but it is confused during the day.

But Qi and Sheng were a little confused, it would be better to immerse themselves in their own world when they were awake.

Cheng En Palace suddenly brought a large amount of purple sand mud from outside the palace. When Qi Ce looked at the materials transported in the palace, he found that the number of purple sand mud suddenly increased. He was surprised and asked the minister of the Ministry of Industry what happened?Zisha mud is a rare item, with only a small annual output, and after collection, it needs a lot of manual processing before it can be sold on the market.Even if the royal family wants purple sand clay products, they need to spend a lot of money to buy them several months in advance.

"Hasn't Yu Sheng been in charge of the verification of Zisha Mud all the time? He didn't say anything when he looked over Zhezi?" Qi Ce threw the material transportation account book at the feet of Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry quickly knelt down, bowed his hands and said to Qi Ce,

"His Majesty,"

"The person who bought purple clay in large quantities is officially the Fourth Prince of the Cheng'en Hall..."

Qi Ce summoned Qi and Sheng to go to Chengqi Hall together, and as soon as Qi and Sheng entered, Qi Ce smashed the purchase account book of the purple sand mud on Qi Yusheng, and asked him why he was crazy?Zisha clay is a rare item, but you, as a prince, buy these luxury items in a big way, how will the common people think of it!

Qi and Sheng knelt on the ground dumbly, no matter how furiously Qi Ce scolded him, they pursed their lips and said nothing.Qi Ce said that he was tired, but Qi Yucheng didn't even open his mouth. He took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and suddenly realized that his precious son was extremely haggard.

"Yu Sheng..." Qi Ce sat down, realized that Qi and Sheng might have encountered something, eased his attitude, and said earnestly, "What's the matter?"

"Over the past year, you have changed too much. Where has my son who was swift and decisive in his actions and calm and decisive in everything he encountered before? Look at your current appearance, how can you still have the slightest attitude in the past?"

Qi and Sheng lowered their heads and said sorry wearily.

Qi Ce sighed, and said to him that you are not sorry for me, but that you are willing to degenerate yourself!

"It's not that I can't handle the official duties you had before, and you are not a prince."

"But Yu Sheng, after all, you are at an age of high spirits, and you should work hard to train yourself and polish yourself. Even if you don't want to be a prince, a man has ambitions everywhere. Seize the moment and let yourself shine. It is a test of your own personality. To improve, to say that growing up is also to make a contribution to my big cum... And look at you now, every day you look hopelessly tired, I don't want you to become so powerful, I just don't want you Wasted the years that should have been fighting..."

Qi and Sheng finally bowed their heads and kowtowed deeply to Qi Ce, saying that he would take care of everything.

Zize didn't ask too many questions.

Leaving the Hall of Chengqi, passing by the Hall of Cheng'an on the way, the East Palace has lost the Crown Princess, and the hanging white curtain has not been removed for a long time.In the crack of the door, Qi and Pei were hugging their little Highness, sitting at the round table under the big tree in the yard, looking into the distance in a daze.

The evening wind blew through the willow trees in the palace city, and those emerald green branches and leaves swept the red city walls. The ministers in crimson official uniforms hurriedly entered and left from their respective office halls. When they saw Qi and Sheng, they would respectfully bow their hands.The Daji Dynasty is thriving, and the society is developing towards a better tomorrow with the joint efforts of everyone.

And who would want to go back to the troubled times at the end of the Yin Dynasty where not a single blade of grass grew?

Qi and Sheng received a letter from Yue Jiangliu's cronies, saying that Chi Yuezong's carriage would arrive at Ling'an City tomorrow, and asked Yin Xiaokuang to pack up all his things.Sending Yin Xiaokuang away was done in secret, and they couldn't put it on the bright side. Qi and Sheng looked at the words on the light-colored rice paper, but no matter how they looked at them, they couldn't print them into their minds.

Yin Xiaokuang was holding a clay bird made out of a pile of purple sand mud, and he wiped such expensive things all over the place like this. Qi Yusheng raised his head and saw Yin Xiaokuang standing by the door, finally there was some flesh on his thin face. Suddenly, I understood the tricks of the troubled times, the foolish emperors, and the flames of the princes who made me scoff when I read the history books.

If they are just two wealthy families of ordinary people, and the grievance between the two is just that his father killed his family for some reason, then Qi and Sheng are willing to pay back with their entire wealth to make up for the fault of the son of the enemy , he is willing to hand over everything, as long as it can make Yin Xiaokuang happy.

But he is not an ordinary person after all, and the Liang family behind Yin Xiaokuang and their Qi family are not simply feuding with each other. Between them, there are two dynasties that have changed from old to new.The end of Yin was brutal, and how many people died because of the stupidity of Emperor Yin Ai. In the absurd violence/chaos, corpses were strewn all over the ground, blood staining every street and every alley in Ling'an City.

Qi Yusheng loves Yin Xiaokuang, but he is also the prince of the founding king!

Yin Xiaokuang walked in front of Qi Yusheng, his face was not red, and his eyes were not bloodshot, he stared at Qi Yusheng for a long time like a cat, and suddenly pulled out the smallest one from the pile of small mud birds in his arms, Press it in front of Qi and Sheng.

"Big bird!"

Qi Yucheng stretched out his hand, wanting to touch Yin Xiaokuang's head, the little fool's hair was scattered among the shoulders, and mud still stuck to it.But just as he raised his hand, he suddenly remembered Yin Xiaokuang's resistance to him before.

The hand stopped in mid-air and fell down silently, Qi and Sheng made a self-deprecating smile, what stand do they have for kissing Yin Xiaokuang now?

He also didn't know why he hid Yin Xiaokuang in the Cheng'en Hall for the last days together, taking care of him bit by bit.

In the evening, Qi and Sheng came to the Nuan Pavilion to tidy up and salute Yin Xiaokuang.It was rare for Yin Xiaokuang not to go crazy at night, but he was still foolish. He hugged the mud bird and asked Qi Yusheng why he threw away his clothes. The pair of skirts, the outer cover and the inner lining, are sorted one by one, folded carefully and orderly, and put into different boxes.

There are also pastries made by the Imperial Dining Room working overtime overnight, which are Yin Xiaokuang's favorites, and they are all neatly stacked in boxes and labeled.

"Go to Chiyuezong, eat well." Qi and Cheng closed the suitcases, pushed them to the corner one by one, and then sat by Yin Xiaokuang's bed, looked at the boy pulling mud, and said softly, "Wear more clothes in winter." Clothes, don’t play outside all the time, it’s easy to freeze... Eat sweets in moderation, otherwise your teeth will be broken..."

What he said was incoherent, but Yin Xiaokuang, who was squatting on the bed covered with mud, completely ignored him, as if the person who was going to leave tomorrow was not him but someone else.Qi and Sheng said a lot of words of advice, but Yin Xiaokuang just stretched out his hand and pushed Qi and Sheng when he accidentally touched the mud bird.

Qi and Cheng were taken aback for a moment, and suddenly realized that in fact, how could Chi Yuezong not consider these things that they ordered?Zi Linlu loves Yin Xiaokuang so passionately, he can't wait to hold Yin Xiaokuang in his heart.He had seen Zi Linlu treat Yin Xiaokuang kindly, which he could never achieve in his life.

That's right... After all, the young lord of the Chiyue Sect will never have the hatred of killing the whole family and destroying the whole dynasty!

Tired of playing, Yin Xiaokuang lay down on the bed and fell asleep. Qi Yusheng waited until Yin Xiaokuang fell asleep and finally could touch his body. At this time, Yin Xiaokuang did not resist him. This should be the last hug in his life him.

The moonlight was quiet, and Qi Yusheng, who was sitting by the bed in the Nuan Pavilion, couldn't hold back his drowsiness. He lay on his arms and closed his eyes. His breathing sounded evenly in the room. Flames burning in the yard.

The world fell into darkness in an instant, and in the silence, Yin Xiaokuang who was lying on the bed quietly opened his eyes.

He got up, bypassed Qi and Sheng beside him, and reached out to Mige under the desk in Cheng'en Palace.

The next day Qi Yusheng woke up early in the morning, rubbed his aching head, saw that Yin Xiaokuang was still sleeping, he settled down, turned around and went to the locker room, and found out that only when his father ascended the throne was he still alive? There is a dress that the prince only wore when he was sealed.

Yue Jiangliu came to meet Yin Xiaokuang in person, and was surprised to see Qi and Cheng dressed so grandly, waving his fans.The bamboo forest in the back hill outside the imperial palace is unusually secluded, hardly anyone comes and goes on weekdays, the bamboo leaves are rustling in the wind, Qi and Sheng's hair is blowing in the wind, facing Yue Jiangliu's eyes full of surprise, he just smiles bitterly .

"Really... have you considered it?" Everyone can see that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is absolutely reluctant to part with this little fool, Yue Jiangliu closed the fan in his hand, pointed at the carriage Yin Xiaokuang was sitting in, and said unceremoniously together Sheng, "Let me just say it first, this young master Yin has gone to my Chiyuezong, and for the rest of his life, he will have nothing to do with your Ling'an City Qi clan!"

"My son Zilinsun, the fourth son also knows that he likes young master Yin to death. As Zilinsun's father, I will definitely not let my future young lady of the Chiyue Sect flirt with other men. If Young Master Yin is willing, I will use potion to erase all his memories, so that he will completely forget about you, Fourth Young Master."

Qi and Sheng took a deep breath, nodded solemnly,

"it is good."

"As long as you can treat him well."

Yue Jiangliu waved his hands, Qi Qi and Sheng said goodbye and got into the car to go on their way. After all, they entered Ling'an City secretly, so they couldn't stay for long.The wheels of the carriage began to slide, rubbing against the sand and dust on the loess.

The carriage Yin Xiaokuang was sitting in moved out of the city little by little, gradually leaving the place where Qi and Sheng were standing.

Qi Yusheng suddenly chased after him, slapping Yin Xiaokuang's carriage while running, and shouted, "Xiao Kuang—Xiao Kuang—!"

Yin Xiaokuang tore a little bit of the car curtain from the window.

Qi and Cheng were holding on to the window frame. The moment they saw Yin Xiaokuang's bewildered face, they were suddenly speechless. The driver in front heard the movement behind and gradually slowed down the carriage.Yin Xiaokuang looked down at Qi Yusheng outside the car window, tilting his head as if looking crazy.

"Xiao Kuang..." Qi Yucheng's voice was choked with sobs, he stretched out his hand, wanting to touch Yin Xiaokuang's face, just like in the past, and finally touch his cheek.Yin Xiaokuang's shoulders trembled a little, as if he was afraid of the pale man in front of him, but when Qi Yusheng's fingertips touched Yin Xiaokuang's lower eyelids, Yin Xiaokuang didn't dodge.

"From now on...be good." Qi Yusheng finally rolled down a tear, Yin Xiaokuang's pupils suddenly constricted, he left Qi Yusheng's hand, lowered his head and rummaged through the bundle on his lap for a long time, and found a small Small purple sand clay bird.

"Here you are." Yin Xiaokuang stuffed the clay bird into Qi Yucheng's palm, "Goodbye."

Qi and Cheng held the mud bird blankly, Yin Xiaokuang put his head back into the carriage, lowered the curtains, and the carriage began to slide forward again, gradually heading into the distance.

When the wind blows, a piece of green bamboo leaves is raised.

There have been a lot of cases in Ling'an City recently, big and small, all kinds of cases.The officials of the Ministry of Punishment are either on the way to accept the case every day, or they are in the carriage rushing to the scene. Many cases have occurred in the past, but some cases do not need to be solved so vigorously.

The one who made them exhausted non-stop, of course, was His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince who was in charge of the lifeline of the entire Ministry of Punishment!

Strange to say, it has been more than a year, Qi and Sheng don't get involved in the sudden cases in the world, most of them are handed over to the Ministry of Punishment for their own handling, and they will be directly reported to His Majesty immediately after they are dealt with.Earlier, when Qi and Sheng were still in charge of the progress of the case, the people in the criminal department complained time and again that the Fourth Highness was too terrifying. Not only was he a workaholic, but he also treated criminals without batting an eyelid. The methods of execution were as cruel as possible cruel!Finally, this year, he finally let go, so that the officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice can get a chance to breathe and adjust the progress of the case.

Who knows, just a few days after the good times, the Fourth Highness, who had almost disappeared, suddenly returned to the investigation system, and personally intervened in all the cases of the previous year, as well as all the recent cases.Qi Yusheng was wearing a pure black cloak, and the cuffs were no longer embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns. They were much thinner than before, and their complexion was also much worse.

But the way the whole person handles affairs is more ruthless than before!

The Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple went back to running errands with trepidation. The people in Ling'an City found that the speed of the local officials' handling of the incident had doubled, and they were all very happy. After a month in a row, the efficiency of the officials' work has improved by leaps and bounds. After breaking through, the emergencies in Ling'an City also dropped to the lowest point after the founding of the country.Driven by Qi and Sheng, there was a positive atmosphere across the country, and everyone said that it was all thanks to the Fourth Highness!

"The fourth prince who is calm and unfazed, and who is decisive in dealing with things is back!"

Qi Ce was very happy. Seeing that his most precious son had finally returned to the right way, he not only sealed him with jade beads, but also handed over the six departments to Qi and Sheng to manage. Qi Ce didn't want to force him, but luckily Qi and Sheng supported him.

Marshal Wu Dian looked at the hall of Cheng En every day, Qi and Sheng turned on the lights to deal with all kinds of opportunities, and they worked harder and harder, and their conversations gradually changed back to the silence they had before Yin Xiaokuang appeared earlier, as if they often asked Marshal Wu Dian a few words in the previous year The Fourth Highness who all seventeen or eighteen little boys like to do and play has never appeared.

Qi Yusheng has to review a large number of documents every day, and he has to drink the strongest alcohol to fall asleep. Tiredness can only prevent him from thinking about Yin Xiaokuang during the day. There is always a day when the work is finished, but the thoughts are endless black holes .

At the beginning of June, the Ministry of Criminal Justice suddenly received a very bizarre case, which happened on the hillside of Nanshan in the outskirts of Ling'an City.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice touched the square box, which was interspersed with red, blue, yellow and crooked threads. The texture of the thread could not be named, and there was a small black square in the center, which flickered strangely. Red number sticks.

The picture on the number stick is still beating and changing regularly!

The Minister of the Ministry of Justice has a big head, and he has never seen such a weird thing.If you can't figure it out, you should report it to the Fourth Highness.He just ordered people to quickly find a wooden box, put the things in it, and send a piece of on-site inspection records to Cheng'en Temple urgently

boom--!

The square box wrapped with colorful threads suddenly exploded violently!

The entire Criminal Department was razed to the ground in an instant!

The sound of the explosion soared into the sky, disturbing the entire Ling'an City. Cheng'en Hall knew immediately that it was the Ministry of Punishment that had exploded. Qi Yusheng immediately ordered Marshal Wu Dian to lead the officers and soldiers to the rescue, but it was too late because the explosion was too violent. No survivors!

This matter spread all over Ling'an City for a while, and Qi Ce ordered a thorough investigation. He dared to carry out such a large terrorist attack at the feet of the emperor. No matter what, he had to investigate!If the murderer is caught, he must be beheaded!The officials who were killed by the bombing and the people affected by the bombing also arranged generous pensions. Qi and Sheng were busy day and night, arranging every procedure properly by themselves.

When investigating the cause of the explosion, they discovered something incredible.

According to the current records of gunpowder, it can directly blow up a five-story building that is tightly built and occupies several miles to nothing, and also smash the ground into a large pit with a depth of more than ten meters. !Such an explosive, there is no way to make it in Big Cum!There must be none in the imperial court. If someone from the people can create such a peerless explosive, not to mention that he has the strength to destroy a country, even if he just transports the explosive to the target location, he will have to go to war.

And the carriage transporting explosives/explosives must have an abrupt shape, and it is even more impossible not to be checked after entering Ling'an City!

All kinds of theoretical basis deduced the result of this explosion as "impossible", but in fact it happened, and the Ministry of Justice did explode into an unbelievable appearance.Qi and Cheng vaguely had some eyebrows in their minds, but they couldn't grasp the specific shape.

Three days after the explosion, shocking news of a riot suddenly came from the north west of the Daji border!

It is very common for nomadic riots to occur in the border areas every year. Every year, when there is a slight sign of the riots before the riots are about to appear, Qi Ce will send the general Zhenjiang with tens of millions of troops to go there. flat pressure.Last year, it was General Ji Yuhan who was sent, but a while ago, General Ji suddenly disbanded and returned to the field, and wrote a letter of resignation.Of course Qi Ce was not allowed, but Ji Yuhan went to talk with Qi Yucheng all night.

Qi and Sheng went out in person to persuade Qi Ce to let Ji Yuhan go.

Fortunately, Daji will never lack heroes with both civil and military skills, and those who go to suppress the northern and western borders will be finalized immediately.The army set out from Ling'an City, led the Daji army flag, and rushed to the place of violence/chaos.

However, on the second day after the Daji suppression army arrived at their destination, another military report suddenly came

The suppressing army was actually completely wiped out by the rioters!

It was so shocking, the news made Qi Ce jump up from the dragon chair on the spot, shouting "Absolutely impossible! How could they all be wiped out?!", and it was still within less than a day!You must know that from ancient times to the present, even in a battle with the greatest disparity in strength between the two sides, it will take at least two days from the start to the end.As for the transmission of the results of the war, it took half a day to pass the letter quickly, and it took at least three days to go back and forth from the end of the battle to the Ling'an City Palace to receive first-hand information.

This time, excluding the half-day for Suge to send the letter, if you calculate from the exact time when the suppressing army arrived at the place of violence/chaos, it took less than half a day for the suppressing army with tens of thousands of troops to be wiped out!

Absolutely... Impossible!

It's really no wonder Qi Ce didn't believe it, and even Qi Yucheng didn't believe it at all when they heard the news.The suppressing army is led by General Shen, who has the most outstanding military achievements in the current imperial court and has been known as the lion on the battlefield for 15 years!According to the statistics of previous years, the number of rioters/chaos was more than [-] at most. How could it be possible to kill the entire suppression army in less than half a day with less than one-thousandth of their strength? !

Before they figured out what was going on here, a huge earthquake suddenly occurred in the border area!

The eruption of this earthquake is not limited to the northern and western borders, but even the southward and eastward seas are shaking again and again.The highest mountain in the world at the southernmost tip of the Daji territory collapsed several kilometers in this unprecedented earthquake, and a quarter of the surrounding Daji territory was implicated, tens of thousands of lives were instantly annihilated by the permafrost ice and snow; while in the east Along the coast, due to the eruption of hot rocks on the bottom of the sea due to the earthquake, the sea area used by the fishermen to raise seafood in the east turned into boiling water. Fierce waves of more than hundreds of meters rushed towards the coastal areas overwhelmingly!

The whole Daji was in chaos, natural disasters and man-made disasters came together, even the weather above Ling'an City in the Central Plains began to be unpredictable, the yellow sand storm blowing today will drop egg-sized hailstones tomorrow, and the crops are in full swing in June To grow vigorously, a hot day and a cold, let all the crops die in the rice field in an instant.

Everything is messed up!

The palace city, which is at the political center of the entire Daji, collapsed completely in the face of a sudden catastrophe that would never happen in a thousand years. All the civil and military officials of the dynasty went to the forefront of the disaster as soon as possible, and Qi Ce personally took charge of the command center. , without rest for a moment every day, and make emergency plans for the constant bad news.

Qi and Sheng were so busy that even Qi and Pei, whose inner wounds had not yet fully settled, mustered up their energy to deal with the disaster in an all-round way.The people in Ling'an City and the surrounding areas saw that the country was in great trouble, and did not degenerate and let God's will deal with it. In recent years, Shao Chengxian, He Yunzheng and others have spread the belief in science, making the people's thoughts more positive and superstitious. The bad customs have been greatly improved.

Everyone is willing to contribute to the country with their own efforts, and work together to tide over the difficulties when the country is in crisis.Therefore, they spontaneously donated their family’s food to the soldiers who were fighting outside, and the big families with sons even called on the men in the ten-mile neighborhood to jointly write to the imperial court, requesting to join the army going to the front line!Qi and Sheng are busy issuing various orders every day, arranging the new army, directing the soldiers to attack the disaster outbreak site, and dealing with the emergencies reported from various states and counties as soon as possible.

He was so busy that he forgot the pain of losing Yin Xiaokuang, but still thinking about Yin Xiaokuang's safety, he took the time to send a letter to the eyeliner planted around Chiyuezong, asking how Yin Xiaokuang was doing there.

But there was no reply from Chi Yuezong's eyeliner. At the beginning, Qi and Sheng had too many things to do, and it was too late to notice that there was no news from Chiyuezong's eyeliner. Later, in a certain evening, he was heading to the southern border with the newly organized army. Gao Feng's order for rescue from permafrost landslides suddenly disappeared from the jade seal in his hand.

Qi and Cheng flipped through the desk full of thick papers, and went to look for the red ink. They were a little anxious at first, so they moved a little too much

Whoa!

A large pile of white paper fell to the ground in an instant.

Qi Yucheng hurriedly bent over to pick up the papers, sorting them one by one, but at the moment when he was about to put the neatly arranged stack of papers back on the table, when he looked up, he suddenly saw Cheng En The hidden compartment on the wall of the Diannuan Pavilion opens the switch.

The switch obviously didn't have any abnormalities, it was still the same as the last time he hid the half jade pendant left by Qi Yuji inside, Qi Yucheng stood up, walked to the side of the dark compartment, and gently turned on the switch of the dark compartment .

patter

Half of the drawer popped out from the lattice, and a faint sandalwood fragrance was instantly exuded from inside.

The half jade pendant that was supposed to lie quietly at the bottom of the dark grid,

Gone.

All of a sudden everything is connected like this!More than a month ago, he had sent elite troops to the northern border of the Great Desert State to investigate the mysteries of the previous Linghe Land, and he had indeed suspected that this jade pendant was a switch to turn on something!

Those people never came back!

So many things happened later that he actually forgot about it!

Qi Yusheng slapped himself on the forehead, scolding himself for being stupid!I was just going to report to my father to direct all my energy to the northern border, because the northern desert state should be the place where the disaster originated!

Before Qi Yusheng could leave the gate of Cheng'en Palace, Marshal Wu Dian suddenly ran all the way and broke in with a solemn expression.

"Your Highness—it's not good!"

Qi Yucheng paused, coughed and asked him what's wrong.

Wu Dianshuai knelt on one knee, his face full of anxiety, it looked like something really happened.

"Your Highness!" Wu Dianshuai said,

"The suzerain of the Chiyue Sect suddenly appeared in the center of the downtown area of ​​Ling'an City, and bloodbathed all the officers and soldiers in the yamen behind the execution ground in the downtown area!"

"what?!"

Originally, the weather was cloudy and cloudy, and the cold wind passed through the border in the evening, and it suddenly snowed. In June, the streets and alleys of Ling'an City were covered with white snowflakes. Piercing through the swirling goose feather snow, the entire streets of Ling'an City were filled with a strong fishy sweetness!

Qi and Sheng asked Marshal Wu Dian dozens of times, were they sure it was the Patriarch of the Chiyue Sect, Yue Jiangliu, who did it?Are you sure you read that right!Wu Dianshuai said that he also heard the report from the people who came to the scene, if His Highness the Fourth Highness doesn't believe it, he can immediately go to the scene and ask the witnesses.Not long before the end of the killing, there must be witnesses who haven't left yet!

The people of Cheng'en Hall quickly went to the execution ground in the busy market, and they were first rushed to the forehead by the smell of blood. Qi and Sheng had been working tense these days, and their bodies were seriously overwhelmed. When they suddenly smelled the strong fishy sweetness, they immediately The stomach is turned upside down.

Holding down his twitching stomach, he stepped on a thick pool of blood to the execution ground platform where the corpses of officers and soldiers were piled up. He leaned over and inspected the wounds of those people. Suddenly dizzy, two eyes turned black, unmistakable, this is Chi Yuezong's unique way of killing people!

There were still some spectators at the scene, and Marshal Wu Dian called several women who had been staying here all this time, and asked them to explain clearly to Qi Yusheng in person.

"Ah, it is indeed the suzerain of the Chiyue Sect!"

"Your Highness doesn't believe it? But everyone heard it. That man killed all the officers and soldiers in the yamen, and finally declared his family in front of all the people in the city with a loud voice—"I am Yuejiang, the lord of the Chiyue Sect." flow'!"

"Oh yes, that Yue Jiangliu also hijacked the county heir of the yamen, and I don't know where he hijacked it, alas! It seems that the suzerain of the rivers and lakes has a grudge against our local county yamen in Ling'an... all at once. All the people in the yamen were killed, God, please suffer..."

Qi and Sheng couldn't figure out why Yue Jiangliu would suddenly kill the government. Jianghu had never mixed with the court, at most it was business.A yamen in a small local county in Ling'an City has very low power, how could it be connected with the largest gang in the world like Chiyuezong!

Marshal Wu Dian transferred to Qi Yusheng all the materials of all the officials, officers and soldiers in this yamen, as well as the criminals executed by the yamen.They were all deeds that had nothing to do with Jianghu. Qi and Sheng searched all the officials' materials three times, but they couldn't find Yue Jiangliu's intention to kill people!

The wind blows in from the window and floats up the pages of the "Summary of Yamen Execution Cases" placed on the top of the case table. that side

[In the 12th year of Jianhe, on April [-]th, the prisoners were executed: Qin Xiao, Xu Qianqian,] [The executioner——Quxian Cheng. 】

Qi and Sheng put on their overcoats and shawls, pushed open the door of Cheng'en Hall and went out.Marshal Wu Dian was carrying materials to Cheng'en Hall. Seeing the heavy snow outside, His Highness the Fourth Highness was about to go out without opening an umbrella. He immediately went forward and asked His Highness where are you going?Do you want my subordinates to help you prepare your horse?

Qi and Sheng waved their hands, saying no, they just went out for a while,

"You...don't need to follow!"

His attitude was very firm, Marshal Wu Dian was stunned in an instant, he hadn't seen his Highness burst into oppression for a long time, the last time was because Yin Xiaokuang broke into the palace to save Wu Yue.

Qi and Sheng left the palace unimpeded all the way through the snow-covered streets and alleys of Ling'an City. Nowadays, natural/natural/disasters/disasters occur frequently. Even if people's hearts are twisted together again, facing the power of nature, they still There will be fear.

Weeds are still overgrown on the hillside of Nanling. Qin Xiao was buried here after his death. Together with the fake princess, in order to prevent people from intruding indiscriminately, Qi and Sheng quietly ordered people to install hidden weapons in this area.

Holding the lantern, Qi Yucheng groped up the mountain and found the wilderness where Qin Xiao was buried. When he arrived, it was already dark, and there was no bright starry sky on a snowy day.

In the pitch-black weeds, there seemed to be a faint light of fire dancing faintly.

Qi and Sheng's breathing stagnated, and the weeds under their feet were inadvertently dragged by him to make a little friction sound, which was not very ear-piercing, but the flames that were jumping in the wild jungle were suddenly extinguished.

"—"

Whoa-!

The surrounding area was instantly illuminated, and dozens of torches rushed into sight from the depths of the grass, and gathered in front of the wordless tombstone erected on the cemetery where Qin Xiao was buried.The flames became more and more concentrated, and some masked men in purple fairy gowns could be seen.

In the center of those flames gathered, a red figure stood quietly in front of Qin Xiao's tombstone.

Qi Yucheng's pupils dilated suddenly, and the man Youyou held one hand behind his back and the other held a extinguished lantern, as if he had sensed Qi Yucheng's existence, he turned around slowly.

Qi Yucheng saw Yin Xiaokuang looking at him with a smile in his eyes, raised his arms behind his back, and greeted him leisurely, "Ah, dear~"

【One month ago】

"Wu Yue..." Yin Xiaokuang grabbed Wu Yue's sleeve, his eyes were sober, Wu Yue was startled, but he quickly reacted, lowered his voice and asked Yin Xiaokuang, "Are you stupid...?"

Yin Xiaokuang gave a wry smile, grasping Wu Yue's sleeve with increased strength, he opened his mouth, and explained to Wu Yue in a very weak tone, "It's only been a few days since I woke up, before... I was confused all the time."

"Sorry...for making you worry."

Wu Yue quickly said that it's all right, just wake up.In a low voice, he asked Yin Xiaokuang what to do next, if he didn't take revenge, would he find a way to take him out of Ling'an City?

Yin Xiaokuang paused for a moment, then let go of Wu Yue's sleeve, and while Wu Yue was puzzled, he took out a rusty iron hairpin from under the pillow, and pressed it on Wu Yue's palm.

"This is...?" Wu Yue picked up the hairpin, looked at it and asked.

Yin Xiaokuang said calmly, this is something from Chi Yuezong.

"However... it was found from Qin Xiao's relics."

"I was lucky enough to see it once when I was a child. The first time Qin Xiao met me, he had this hairpin on his head, but he never wore it again... The last time he was in the Chiyuezong, he and Zilinshang ran into it by mistake. Mig, the suzerain of the moon, has seen the same branch inside."

"Zilin Xun told me that Chi Yuezong originally had two children, and he originally had an uncle who was about ten years older than him..."

"Zilin Xun is 20 years old this year, and Qin Xiao is just [-] years old this year."

Wu Yue took this hairpin with him and went directly to Chiyuezong after leaving Ling'an City.As soon as the head of the Chiyue Sect heard that Yin Xiaokuang had sent him, he immediately invited him in.

In early May, Yin Xiaokuang left the Central Plains.After getting into Chi Yuezong's carriage, Yue Jiangliu who was sitting on the opposite seat suddenly handed him something, the hairpin that he asked Wu Yue to bring to Yue Jiangliu.

"...Does Sect Master Yue have anything to ask?" Yin Xiaokuang put away Qi and Sheng's silly looks, although he was still weak and his voice was hoarse, but his eyes were very clear, and his tone of voice returned to the old one. cold.
