Wudingfu, the head of the study.

Mei Wuhen stood in front of the table, watching Gulan write a letter to Zhai Xia solemnly, probably to ask him to come to Wuding Mansion to discuss with her before going to Beichen Mountain.

Xi Xiao gave five days, and now three days have passed, Gu Lan has arranged everything within these three days, no matter what Mei Wuhen said, she has not given up on going to Beichen Mountain in person thought.

At this time, Mei Wuhen mentioned again: "Master, I didn't tell you, Xi Xiao is in Beichen Mountain, he must have already laid a net, just waiting for you and Zhai Xia to go up."

Gu Lan sealed the envelope, but obviously didn't listen to a word, she summoned a disciple and asked that disciple to spread the letter as soon as possible.

"Master, why don't you take oil and salt? It's such a dangerous time now. We should protect ourselves wisely, so that we won't drag Beichenshan down, and we won't implicate ourselves. It's a comprehensive method." Mei Wuhen was anxious. say.

She didn't believe that her master didn't understand such a simple and plain truth.

She was also worried about Chenli, but it would not be a good thing if the two sects were stuck in the quagmire.

"Wuhen, you can't protect yourself when it comes to some people and some things." She didn't go back to the table, but sat down at the long desk on the other side.

There were two chairs on the left and one on the right of the long table. Mei Wuhen knew that Master wanted to talk to her, so she sat down beside her patiently.

Gu Lan nodded in satisfaction, raised her head and drank the tea that Mei Wuhen poured down earlier, it was already cold.

"Master, this tea is cold..."

Gu Lan put down the cup, pointed to the pot of herbal tea and said, "What is the difference between our current situation and this herbal tea?"

Hot tea is always full of fragrance, and you can smell its diffuse tea aroma before you get close to it, and the taste is mellow, while the cold tea has no smell at all, and even the taste of the mouth has changed.

I don't know whether the righteous way in the future will come to this point. If they are unable to turn the tide, they can only be thrown away like this pot of herbal tea. When the dynasty changes in the future, I don't know who will come on top.

"Master, since you understand everything, why do you still go to Beichen Mountain?"

"Although the four sects of ours do not move around much, we are indeed all prosperous and the other is lost. Now that Cangyou Pavilion is surrendering to the enemy, if anything happens to Beichen Mountain, it will be impossible for Zhai Xia and I to stand up. So this No matter what, Zhai Xia and I must go."

"What if... was wiped out all at once?"

Gu Lan didn't even blink her eyes: "Then it's worth it to dissipate with two old friends."

Even if Gu Lan and Zhai Xia don't go, it will be their turn soon. Instead of shrinking, it's better to fight bravely.

What's more, these years, there has always been a relationship between them, it is impossible to turn a blind eye and let Beichenshan suffer.

"Wuhen, is your bell ringing?"

Gu Lan turned the subject a little too quickly, Mei Wuhen didn't react for a moment, when she understood what Gu Lan was talking about, she nodded unnaturally: "Yes, yes."

After all, she was the one who said she would never like her before, and she is also the one who is moved now.

"Do you like that person?" Gu Lan asked.

Mei Wuhen lowered her head, and blushed a little at the thought of Chenli: "I like it very much, Master."

"Who is it?"

"Master, why do you still have time to ask these questions?" Mei Wuhen said angrily.

"I don't ask these questions. Whoever asks these questions, I can rest assured if you make it clear. I won't have to worry about your life's important events when I turn around and die in a fight."

"Master, what nonsense are you talking about? It's... Beichenshan's big disciple, Chenli."

Chenli has a good name, and Gu Lan has heard about it, and she has seen him before. Although she is relieved, she is still somewhat surprised: "How did you fall in love with him?"

"Who can say things like affection clearly." Mei Wuhen murmured.

"Who can say something like affection..." Gu Lan looked at the books on the shelf. Someone had said this to her before.

When the love was strong, he desperately kissed and hugged her, said that he wanted to marry her home, and that he wanted to be with her forever.

After the fun was over, he vaguely said that he didn't like her anymore.

Gu Lan couldn't believe that such a warm affection would disappear so quickly, like a flood came, swept her heart and ran away.

He was generous, he said that he couldn't explain his affection at all, so they should get together and leave each other, and return each other to the sea of ​​people.

Those were the most disgusting words Gu Lan had ever heard in her life. The sword in her hand pierced straight into the tree next to him. She used [-]% of her strength, and the sword went straight through the tree.

He was so frightened that he sat down on the ground, afraid that Gu Lan would kill him.

Seeing him like this, Gu Lan suddenly felt funny and pitiful. She pitied herself for giving this scum her love when she was young. She cut his arm with a sword. Walk.

As far as that scum is concerned, the wound on the arm will heal soon, but the wound on Gu Lan's heart has not healed for so many years, and sometimes it still bleeds.

She also knew it wasn't worth it, but she couldn't stop thinking about it.

"Master, master, what's the matter with you?" Mei Wuhen felt that Gu Lan's face was not right, and after shouting twice, Gu Lan came back to her senses, "Master, if you feel uncomfortable..."

"No." Gu Lan shook her head, "I'm not uncomfortable, I just want to confess to you, you must see the person clearly."

Mei Wuhen finally understood what the master was thinking just now, the past has passed for so long, and the master still can't let go.

She had heard Master's story before and decided she would never like people.

Later, she met Chenli, but she was moved in an instant, and she realized that not only her fate was beyond her control, but her heart was also beyond her control.

What she said might not be the same as what she did later, and she also understood why the master resolutely took action in the first place, but still kept it in his heart for so many years.

"With the bell that Master gave me, who can fool me." Mei Wuhen stood up and took Gulan by her arms.

Gu Lan patted her hand and told her to go down and continue preparing.

Imperial City.

The imperial city is worthy of being an imperial city, where all the prosperity of the world gathers here, and there are countless things to eat, play and see.

On the high platform, there are still beauties half-covering their faces, exposing their slender waists and dancing happily on it.

Qian Feng and Ji Shutao plunged into the crowd, and found two guards with knives standing on the left and right under the wall, and there was a notice posted on the central wall behind them.

I wrote to the palace that strange things have been happening recently, the emperor is uneasy, fearing disasters to the people, specially recruiting capable people and strangers to enter the palace, to appease the world, those who succeed will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold, and officials will worship five grades.Anyone who wishes can enter the palace by taking off this notice.

Of course Qian Feng and Ji Shutao wanted to reveal it, and when they were pushing forward to reveal the notice, they heard someone whispering beside them.

"What do strange things mean?" a young scholar asked.

The old woman holding a piece of cloth in her arms looked around uneasily, and lowered her head sadly: "It's just haunted, it's a crime."

"Is the palace also haunted?"

"They didn't know how many Wenren clans they killed, and the palace is not haunted by ghosts." The middle-aged man chattered endlessly, dragging the young scholar away, quite a bit taboo.

Ji Shutao and Qianfeng understood a lot when they heard this, Ji Shutao asked: "Could it be that this ghost is from the royal family of Wenren?"

Qian Feng pondered and said: "Anyway, I should have enmity with the Yan family."

It has disturbed the palace's peace, there must be a grudge, and the grudge is not small, Ji Shutao was thinking about it, but was suddenly pushed against the wall by Qian Feng's palm.

Ji Shutao smiled awkwardly at the two vicious guards, and quickly took off the notice.

The guard obviously didn't expect that the little girl would have the guts to take down the notice, and the one on the left warned: "You understand this? This is not a joke, or you will be beheaded."

Sure enough, people can't be judged by their appearance. They look fierce and evil, but they have a good heart.

Ji Shutao leaned in front of the two of them, lowered his voice and said, "Our family's ancestors have been doing this for generations. My sister and I heard that the emperor was disturbed, so we came all the way here, hoping to relieve the emperor's worries."

"Which one is your sister?" asked the guard on the right.

Qian Feng happened to come over at this time, and said with a beaming smile, "I am her older sister."

This was all decided in advance, and the two of them pretended to be sisters to avoid suspicion.

The guard looked at the two of them, they were both young girls with good looks, and they really couldn't get close to such a thing.

But I heard that people with such abilities are the most youthful. Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem too strange.

No matter what, the two of them did reveal the notice. His Majesty was still furious in the palace this morning, and dragged people out to ask for execution. He had to bring the two of them into the palace if he could, or he had to bring them both into the palace if he couldn't.

The emperor met Ji Shutao and Qianfeng in the study room, and when he saw the two of them, he was obviously taken aback. After giving the seat, the emperor closed his eyes with a headache. His throne was indeed won by him bit by bit.

"I don't know what you two can do?" The emperor smiled and eased his majesty a little.

"Your Majesty, there is always a reason for what happened. Please tell me what happened in detail." Qian Feng said.

These two people didn't rush in front of him at all, they looked like people with real skills, unlike the previous ones who only bluffed and deceived.

Thinking of those from the past, the emperor gritted his teeth secretly, and said: "It's like this. Around the beginning of the month, many people in the palace said that they could see white shadows floating in the sky at night. The queen didn't believe it, so she stayed there all night. In the end, I was frightened and fell ill, and many concubines in the palace were also ill. In the past few days, even several important officials have been unable to go to court."

Neither the harem nor the former dynasty is peaceful, no wonder the emperor is so upset, the dynasty has just been established and is not yet stable, and now something like this has happened, I heard that the people have already spread the word that their Yan family is plotting to usurp the throne, angered God, so now I have been punished for such rumors.

Rumors are passing like wind, if they are not stopped in time, I am afraid that the world that the Yan family has managed to conquer will be wiped out.

"Is it just a white shadow?" Ji Shutao asked, "Is there nothing else?"

When a ghost makes a move, blood is bound to be seen. Now it's just that someone is sick from fright, so it's unlikely.

Ji Shutao was in a panic, fearing that she would miss the day by fetching water from Qianfeng Bamboo Basket.

The emperor was indifferent, and reluctantly mentioned: "There are also some insignificant people who died."

"An insignificant person?" Ji Shutao frowned, she originally had a good impression of the emperor, but at this moment she was brought back to reality by his words.

It really is the emperor, the emperor has never been ruthless.

"There are still a few people from the Wenren royal family left, all of them are locked in the cold palace, they were supposed to be dragged out and killed, but unexpectedly, they all died overnight."

"how many people?"

The emperor lowered his eyes, probably unable to remember, and the waiter who was waiting at the side immediately responded: "21."

21, it doesn't matter if it comes out of his mouth, Ji Shutao resisted the urge to curse, but couldn't be respectful anymore.

Qian Feng patted her on the back secretly, and continued to ask: "How did you die?"

"It seems to be scared to death," the waiter replied, "The guards said that they didn't find any wounds, but their faces were hideous, as if they saw a ghost."

When talking about ghosts, the emperor gave him a sideways glance. He thought he was useful, so he opened his mouth. Thinking about it now, he turned pale.

"Where are those people now?"

"Throw it to the mass grave."
