People always think I'm a broken sleeve

Qiu Qingxi stood there silent for a while.

After a while, he said, "Huating."

Fang Huating replied, "Yes."

Qiu Qingxi said: "Send someone to invite Mr. Zhuang over."

Fang Huating was startled for a moment, then quickly recovered, "Yes."

Inside the room, Xuan Yue's attitude was contemptuous, with a look of indifference.

His fingers gently caressed the fireplace in his arms, and his slow and elegant movements made his whole person look graceful and luxurious, which made people daunting.

Xuan Yue caressed the stove lazily, and never looked at Qiu Qingxi from the beginning to the end, as if he didn't pay attention to Qiu Qingxi at all.

Oh no.

It should be that Qiu Qingxi was never taken seriously.

Qiu Qingxi stared at the scene in front of him, his face became more and more gloomy.

He clenched his fingers.

If it weren't for Qiu Qingxi's strong self-control, he might have been unable to hold back the hatred and anger that was about to burst out, and rushed into the house to attack Xuan Yue.

Even though Qiu Qingxi knew that he was definitely not Xuan Yue's opponent.

Qiu Qingxi will never understand.

——How can Xuan Yue treat human life as nothing so lightly!

the other side.

The people sent by Fang Huating soon arrived outside the Zhuang mansion.

The man knocked on the door, and after the doorman opened the door, the man said: "Master Fang sent a villain here, and I want to invite Lord Jiuqing to..."

Halfway through the conversation, the doorman closed the door again without hesitation.

That person:? ? ? ?

Inside the mansion, Yan Ruyu, who was passing by the main courtyard, caught a glimpse inadvertently, and said with a clear heart: "Are you here again to invite your lord to come to the mansion?"

The doorman nodded obediently.

Yan Ruyu clicked her tongue in disgust.

Yan Ruyu frowned and said, "Why are these people still so wicked? How could my lord be so easy to invite? At the very least, I have to send over 3 taels of silver first."

Yan Ruyu snorted coldly.

The people standing outside the door had no idea that they were being regarded by the doorman as those sleazy gentlemen who wanted to curry favor with Su Bian. When the doorman suddenly closed the door, they thought they were going to call Su Bian.

As a result, he stood outside the door and waited and waited, but the door never opened.

After about an hour, he suddenly realized that he was not going back to invite your lord, it was simply refusing him outside the house.

Realizing this, the man tried knocking on the door again, but there was no answer.

There was no choice but to return to the Xuanfu where Qiu Qingxi was located in desperation.

Looking at Xuan Yue's 'imminent death', they were extremely rampant, and they didn't pay attention to Qiu Qingxi at all.Qiu Qingxi's mood at this moment was extremely gloomy.

Qiu Qingxi was in a bad mood, and her usual patience disappeared in an instant.

He suppressed the outburst of anger and waited for an hour in Xuanfu.Unexpectedly, what he waited for was to return without a problem.

If it wasn't for Qiu Qingxi's rationality, Qiu Qingxi might have dismissed him on the spot.

Qiu Qingxi asked coldly, "Where is Mr. Zhuang?"

The man stood aside, lowered his head, and whispered, "Master Zhuang...he didn't come."

Qiu Qingxi's face darkened.

The man trembled and explained: "The young one went to the Zhuang Mansion and knocked on the door, and the servant opened the door. The young one just finished speaking halfway, and the servant closed the door again for some reason. The young one thought that

Ask Mr. Zhuang to go, but the little one waited and waited, but the door never opened..."

Qiu Qingxi's face had already turned black.

Qiu Qingxi asked, "What did you say?"

The man replied obediently: "The little one said to the servants, 'Lord Fang sent a villain here, and wants to invite Lord Jiuqing to Xuanfu'. Before the little one could say the word Xuanfu, the door closed.

It is. ”

Qiu Qingxi frowned.

This sentence was very normal, and he didn't see anything wrong.

Qiu Qingxi knew very little about Su Bian, except that he knew about Su Bian's past... oh no, it should be Zhuang Duxin's past events that made people despise him when he mentioned them, he didn't know anything else

, never understood.

After all, I don't have any good feelings about this life, and I certainly won't try to understand it deliberately.

As for the past, Zhuang Duxin's mansion raised a bunch of male favorites, and as the county magistrate, they bent the law for personal gain.There are also indulging in lust, inaction and so on.

Qiu Qingxi didn't know why the door boy closed the door suddenly, but Xuan Yue knew it was impossible.

Qiu Qingxi only heard Xuan Yue in the room let out a muffled laugh, and said, "As expected, Lord Jiuqing..."

Xuan Yue suddenly caught off guard with a muffled smile, the words he said, and the unsurprised look on his face, obviously he knew why Su Bian would stay behind closed doors.

Thinking of a certain possibility, Qiu Qingxi's face suddenly lost all color.

what.

……Ha ha.

He was so naive.

He believed what other people said.

When someone said that he and Xuanyue were not on good terms, he really believed it.

He really forgot the scene of Xuan Yue repeatedly defending someone in the court hall.

I also forgot that Xuanyue is not an extraordinary person.

If it weren't for the extraordinary relationship, how could it be possible to rescue him in the court.

Three days ago, An Heqing handed over the case to Zhuang Duxin.

However, for some reason, after the other party glanced at it, he let it go and did not deal with it, delaying it until the day he returned to Beijing.

Then he waited for him to discover the case, and then lost his mind and presented the case to the court.When the ministers objected, he would pretend to defend him and intercede for him.

It's no wonder why he treated him like this in the past, it's fine if he doesn't hold grudges, but he still uncharacteristically rescued him and interceded for him.

……I see.

Now that I think about it, I'm afraid Master Zhuang deliberately let An Heqing find out about this case, and then asked An Heqing to hand it over to him.

Let's just say that Xuanyue used to be so quiet, it would be very difficult to catch his cheating feet.

He waited for this position in Jiuqing for four full years, but he couldn't wait.Let’s just say that when Xuan Yue killed people, his hands and feet were always clean, so no one could find any clues, but this Zhuang Da

The person had only been here for a few months, and this case popped up suddenly.

…………I see.

and so.

All of this was directed and performed by Zhuang Duxin and Xuan Yue, in order to provoke him, or to provoke all the courtiers in the court who were dissatisfied with Xuan Yue?

In other words, Xuan Yue wanted to make an example of others?

And he is the chicken?

In fact, if you think about it carefully, what Qiu Qingxi thought just now has many loopholes.Some just don't make sense.

But Qiu Qingxi, who thought he could finally get revenge, has completely lost his mind after discovering that he was just 'played' by Su Bian and Xuan Yue.

Qiu Qingxi turned around with a sullen face.

Fang Huating, who was behind him, noticed Qiu Qingxi's strangeness, and said hesitantly, "...My lord?"

Qiu Qingxi said coldly: "Give me the sword."

Qiu Qingxi was completely out of reason at this moment, and he didn't even say anything to the official.

Fang Huating was stunned for a moment, then slowly took off the saber from his waist and handed it over.

Qiu Qingxi took it, turned around and left.

Behind him, Qiu Qingxi was stunned, "...My lord, where are you going?"

Qiu Qingxi didn't answer.

Qiu Qingxi held the sword and went directly to the Zhuang Mansion.

Qiu Qingxi had a murderous look on his face, and there seemed to be a thick cloud of black air on his head.

Those who passed by saw him, and immediately backed away in fear, fearing that they would be implicated.

Qiu Qingxi went outside the Zhuang mansion.

He knocked on the door.

Hearing the voice, the door boy opened the door. Just as he was about to say something, he found that the person standing outside the door was not the same person as before, so he asked, "What's the matter, my lord?"

Qiu Qingxi glanced at the doorman coldly, and rushed in directly.

Qiu Qingxi came in a menacing manner, and it seemed that he was someone looking for trouble. The door boy was flustered, and hurriedly stopped Qiu Qingxi, "My lord, what are you doing? This is the Jiuqing Mansion, and outsiders are not allowed."

Anyone who broke in casually... Young Master, you should go out quickly, if you are seen by adults, you will be punished by adults..."

Qiu Qingxi didn't even raise his eyes, and walked past the doorman.

The doorman wanted to stop him again, but it was too late.

Su Bian had already seen it.

Su Biangang was quietly in a dark corner of the mansion, poured out the bowl of black porridge made by Zhong Liang, which was so unpalatable that it could be called poison, and was about to put the bowl back, when he raised his eyes, he saw

Not far away, Qiu Qingxi looked ugly.

Qiu Qingxi suddenly appeared in the mansion, Su Bian raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised.

Qiu Qingxi actually came to the mansion to look for him?This is strange.

Seeing Su Bian appear, the doorman lowered his eyes in despair.

The door boy was afraid that Su Bian would blame him, so he hurried forward and explained, "This young master broke into the mansion suddenly, and the younger one didn't stop him..."

Su Bian's expression was calm, "It's okay, step back."

Seeing that Su Bian didn't blame him, the door boy was relieved.

He hummed aggrievedly, and stepped back obediently.

After the doorman stepped back, Su Bian turned his attention to Qiu Qingxi again.

Su Bian asked: "Why did Master Qiu come to the Zhuang Mansion all of a sudden?"

Qiu Qingxi had no expression on his face, and quickly drew his sword, and the sharp blade with a cold light touched Su Bian's neck.

Qiu Qingxi exerted a little force with his hands, his voice was as cold as if it had been covered with ice.

He sneered and said, "Master Zhuang should know why I came here?"

Su Bian narrowed his eyes, his expression slightly condensed.

Su Bian stood on the spot, standing still.

A trace of warm red liquid fell down the silver blade, smashing a flower of blood on the ground.

Su Bian glanced nonchalantly, the expression on his face was extremely calm.

Su Bian said lightly, "I don't know."

Unexpectedly, when the blade touched his neck, Su Bian was so calm and calm, Qiu Qingxi's breathing became stagnant, and his expression became a little ferocious.

Qiu Qingxi clenched the sword in his hand, and said, "Does Lord Zhuang think that the current appearance of the lower official looks extremely ridiculous?"

Su Bian didn't answer.

Qiu Qingxi: "I didn't expect that with just a few words, I could fool the officials around and jump into your trap. The dignified Shaoqing of the Taiqing Academy, who has been the Taiqing Academy for four years, unexpectedly

This is so stupid. "

Su Bian still didn't speak.

Because he couldn't understand a word.

However, just because Su Bian stood there without saying a word, Qiu Qingxi's expression became even more gloomy.
