The Empire and the Kingdom

After dinner, Xiaozhu and Xiaoduo guarded Xue Ai, Yushu took care of Yuyan and Mengan, and Cuidie took care of the entire garrison mansion. The others finally had time to sit down and discuss this matter.

"What clues do you have?" Feng Jingsu asked.

Guan Xuejing spread her hands. She knew that this group of people had high martial arts skills just by doing her best, and she didn't find anything else.

Qiao Zhi obviously didn't know either, and turned to look at her master.

Xiao Changyu coughed, and the other three and six eyes all stared at her.

"I know this group of people in white."

Swish!The six eyes are shining.

"You probably haven't heard of a sect called Ghost Gate." Xiao Changyu said.

"Ghost Gate?" Feng Jingsu frowned, "I seem to have heard from Master."

Xiao Changyu nodded, "Your master and the master personally dealt with the ghost sect. The martial arts of this sect are very strange. It once appeared in Yin Kingdom and several surrounding countries. It is very powerful. Later, the master and your master joined forces. Exterminated. I haven’t shown up in the martial arts for more than 20 years. I thought that group of people were dead, but I didn’t expect to appear again in Yunguo.” She paused, “And their martial arts seem to be similar to It’s not the same as before, they don’t seem to be afraid of your Frost Art.”

Both Feng Jingsu and Guan Xuejing noticed this.It was rare for this group of men in white to keep attacking under Feng Jingsu's icy true energy.

"Maybe they have been hiding for so many years to practice the martial arts of not being afraid of the ice." Xiao Changyu smiled, "It seems that they were bullied by your master."

"Aren't there still masters? Will they also be able to resist the master's martial arts?" Qiao Zhi asked.

Xiao Changyu didn't rush to answer, but instead asked Feng Jingsu and Guan Xuejing, "What do you think?"

Guan Xuejing didn't speak, she didn't have the treatment of Feng Jingsu, and she didn't see the master much.

Feng Jingsu shook her head, "The martial arts of the master..." She showed a painful face, "That's not martial arts practiced by living people! How can you resist?"

Xiao Changyu lowered his head and laughed non-stop, "That's right. Only she can practice the martial arts in charge of the academy. You can see that Chen Xu and Hanyou don't practice it."

Originally, everyone thought that a martial arts prodigy like Jiang Fengmin was a once-in-a-century genius, but after seeing Shu Yunci, the head master, everyone knew what a once-in-a-millennium genius is.Shu Yunci is not just a martial arts prodigy, he is a prodigy in every aspect.Others rely on self-discipline to practice, Jiang Fengmin relies on interest in practicing, and practicing in the courtyard relies on breathing.You can learn it in one breath, this is a typical example of people being more angry than others.

Both Chen Xu and Jing Hanyou have actually learned the martial arts of Zhangyuan, but it is not certain how much they can learn, so the Zhangyuan gave them a lot of secret books for them to practice by themselves.

"Jingsu, you should notify the academy about this as soon as possible, and find out if the Ghost Gate is coming for the academy. They will come after you. This is obviously using your wife as a bait to trap and kill you, and they almost succeeded. "Xiao Changyu looked at Feng Jingsu disapprovingly at this point.

Feng Jingsu lowered her head.

Xiao Changyu looked at Guan Xuejing again, and Guan Xuejing quickly lowered her head.

"They're all too young to act on their own will." As the vice head of the academy, Xiao Changyu still wanted to talk about these two disciples.If it is really broken, there will be a big mess.

"Disciple knows his mistake." Feng Jingsu and Guan Xuejing both admitted their mistake.

"You should check the main messenger behind the scenes first. It is impossible for the people of the Ghost Gate to know your whereabouts so well." She stood up after speaking, "Seeing that you have something to do these two days, I will stay with Zhi'er for a few more days. God, you don't need to worry about us, just let us know if you have something to do." Xiao Changyu is here to help, so of course he can't make trouble.She was a former emperor, so she didn't need any ostentation at all, so it was convenient for her to come in and out.

Feng Jingsu and Guan Xuejing looked at each other. Of course, the men in white clothes who were brought back to the barracks had to be questioned about this kind of thing. This kind of thing was handed over to Guan Xuejing. The garrison recognized her, and it was convenient for her to act. .

A day later, Guan Xuejing came back and said that a large number of people in white clothes died, and the few who survived finally said that they were hired.The meeting place is in an inn in the city.When Guan Xuejing said the name of the inn, not to mention Feng Jingsu, even Xue Ai who was lying on the bed showed a clear expression.

Guan Xuejing saw the "I see" expressions on the faces of the two, and asked, "Do you know this inn?"

Feng Jingsu said: "This inn belongs to the former prince."

Guan Xuejing's eyes widened, "So, the person who hired this group of men in white is the emperor..." She covered her mouth all of a sudden, "She wants to kill you!"

Feng Jingsu sneered, "It's not surprising that she wanted to kill me if she was able to attack Xiaoai. I have repeatedly spoiled her good things, and she might have wanted to get rid of me long ago."

Guan Xuejing couldn't help shivering, "If His Majesty knows about this..."

Feng Jingsu shook her head, "She won't. Even if we hand over the evidence of these people to Father, she must have a way to clean up everything. She has been in the harem for so many years, and she has many methods."

Xue Ai, who was lying on the bed, also said: "Even the empress has never shown her face in this matter, just a prince's inn really can't explain anything, but it will startle the snake."

"Then what should we do? Do we also do it secretly?" Guan Xuejing felt that these two people must have a way to deal with the queen.

If you want to do it secretly, it is simple.Feng Jingsu didn't want to do this, wasn't she just playing tricks?Before she officially accepted the government, she just used the queen to practice her hands, to see if the strategy she learned in the master would work in the harem.

"Don't do it secretly, I want to bring her down in an open and honest manner."

In the past two days, Xiao Changyu took Qiao Zhi to wander around the capital, buying some gadgets when he saw them, and going back to the academy to distribute them to the masters.

"Master, look at how beautiful this pair of Ruyi purses are. You bought one and shared it with Master Tao." Of course, apprentices must know what the master thinks.Xiao Changyu and Tao Qingli are also a couple who like to show their love to the sky.

Xiao Changyu also felt that this pair of purses was exquisitely embroidered, different from the craftsmanship in the palace, but very unique.Just as she was about to buy it, the purse was suddenly taken away.

"This pair of wishful purses is really unique!" A beautiful girl snatched the purses, "Boss, how much is this pair of purses?"

Before the boss spoke, Qiao Zhi quit. She is the princess of Lan Guo, how could she have been bullied like this? "Miss, is there a first-come-first-served one? This pair of purses is what I have my eyes on first."

The girl glanced at her, and saw that although she was beautiful, she was only wearing civilian clothes, and her eyes were very strange, and there was only a beautiful woman standing beside her, also dressed in the same ordinary way, she was not expected to be an official lady, so she raised her chin , "This girl, you didn't pay for what you fancy, so how can there be first come, first served?"

At this time, the boss said, "Miss Xue, this pair of purses is a merchant's handicraft, five taels of silver."

This girl is Xue Ying.She has been bored at home recently, and today she came out to get some air.Seeing this pair of wishful purses, she thought that if she put them in the dowry, she would be able to gain a good reputation if she said she embroidered them.

"Businessmanship?" Qiao Zhi couldn't hold back a smile and called out.

"What is this girl laughing at?" The boss was a little dissatisfied.

"That's it? Is this a merchant's craftsmanship? Boss, your purses are indeed worth five taels of silver, but it's too much to call it a merchant's craftsmanship." There is a Shang Qingchen in Feiyejin Academy, who is the most skilled embroidery merchant people.The craftsmanship on this purse is really good, not everyone has Shang Qingchen's craftsmanship, but the merchant's embroidery method is unique, Shang Qingchen has told his disciples that although they don't know how to embroider, they can recognize it.

"Girl, since you look down on this pair of purses, naturally you won't ask for it." Xue Ying smiled and said, "Ru Mei, give me the money."

Rumei paid the money, and the master and servant left with the purse and the smile of the winner.

"Hey!" Qiao was too childish, and wanted to reason again, but was held back by Xiao Changyu.

"Girl, you should stop haggling with Miss Xue. She is the eldest lady of Xiangfu, and she will be the seventh prince concubine in a few days. Who is the seventh prince? The empress's son will be the emperor in the future. This Xue The eldest lady will be the queen in the future, if you offend her, you will definitely suffer in the future." The boss is still warm-hearted, although Qiao Zhi retorted, he still doesn't want to see such a little girl cause trouble.

"Miss Xue?" Qiao Zhi looked at Xue Ying's leaving back, "Then she is Miss Ai's sister?"

The master and apprentice went back to the garrison mansion, and Qiao Zhi jumped to Xue Ai's room. When she entered the door and saw Xue Ai and Feng Jingsu were getting bored together, she hurriedly shouted: "I didn't see anything!"

Feng Jingsu stood up with a smile, "I didn't see you yelling so loudly, do you want to call Master Xiao?" She let Qiao Zhi in, "You chat with Xiao Ai, I have something to do with Master Xiao."

"Oh." Qiao Zhi ran to Xue Ai's side, "Miss Ai, you look much better."

Xue Ai really hit it off with Qiao Zhi.Among the few friends she has been with, she is the youngest. Now that there is a Qiao Zhi who is younger than her, she immediately feels proud of being a sister.

"Zhi'er, what's going on in the street today?" Xue Ai has been listening to Qiao Zhi's talk for the past few days to relieve boredom.

Qiao Zhi hurriedly said what happened just now, "Sister Xiaoai, your sister is so fierce."

"She's always been like that, don't mind." Xue Ai still felt quite embarrassed, after all, it was her own sister.

Qiao Zhi waved her hand, "I don't care."

Feng Jingsu knew that Xiao Changyu would not stay for long, and the purpose of coming this time was to find the apprentice from back then, so after finding out that the incident was the Queen's envoy, she was not in a hurry to get revenge. "Master Xiao, when are you free to follow me into the palace?"

"Tonight then." Xiao Changyu said.

After dinner, after Feng Jingsu coaxed Xue Ai to sleep, she brought Xiao Changyu into the palace.Qiao Zhi was going, but Feng Jingsu was worried about Xue Ai, so Xiao Changyu asked Qiao Zhi to stay and protect Xue Ai.

The two came to the top of Zhiqiong Palace under the cover of night, Xiao Changyu looked at the surrounding environment, "It seems to be here." She asked Feng Jingsu to stand aside, and pushed her palms flat, Feng Jingsu could clearly feel an internal force Spread, endlessly.

Feng Jingsu sighed, these masters usually look quite noisy, but if they really want to get serious, one is more powerful than the other.

Not long after, there was movement in the Zhiqiong Palace. A black shadow flew onto the palace wall. After seeing Xiao Changyu, he was about to come over to say hello, when he saw Feng Jingsu not far away, the black shadow stopped immediately .

Xiao Changyu looked at the black shadow and nodded to Feng Jingsu, "It's her."

Feng Jingsu walked over with a smile, "Should I call you Senior Sister now? Second Sister."

The black shadow took off the veil on his head, revealing a beautiful face, it was Princess Yongning.

"Master, you are..." Princess Yongning couldn't figure out why these two people were together.

"Second sister, it's inconvenient to talk here, let's find a place to talk in detail."

Princess Yongning let the two into the side hall of Zhiqiong Palace, which is her room.

It was the first time for Feng Jingsu to enter the Zhiqiong Palace. After entering the room, she couldn't help but look around. The room was very simple, except for the necessities of life, there was almost nothing else to see.

"Master..." Princess Yongning still wanted to know the answer immediately.

Xiao Changyu glanced at Feng Jingsu, "Jingsu, you can talk to her."

Feng Jingsu described her relationship with Feiyejin Academy and Xiao Changyu's relationship with Feiyejin Academy in detail. After hearing this, Princess Yongning was relieved, "So I came from the same school as my fifth younger sister."

Xiao Changyu disagreed, "Although I taught you martial arts, I never formally accepted you as an apprentice. Since I entered Feiyejin Academy, the academy has its rules and I can't break them, so do you count as a member of the Academy?" , I have to ask the director to find out. Back then you and I made an appointment not to ask your name, not to find out why, but now that it’s been opened, I want to know your name.”

Feng Jingsu couldn't bear to laugh so much that her facial expression twitched a little. The two of them didn't know each other's name before today.

"Disciple Feng Jingxun." Whether Xiao Changyu recognized her as an apprentice or not, she always regarded Xiao Changyu as her master.

Xiao Changyu nodded, "You should start later than Jingsu, but since you are biological sisters, you should be called sisters, so as not to cause confusion." She looked at Feng Jingsu, "What else do you want to ask?"

Feng Jingsu shook her head, no matter how many things she could ask Princess Yongning slowly, there was no need to rush.

But Princess Yongning said: "Master, you haven't come to see this disciple for several years." That appearance clearly looks like a pitiful little one who was abandoned.

Feng Jingsu saw that this was a reminiscence, so she hurried away.On the way, she abducted to Antai Hall, and told Concubine De about what happened in the past two days.

After hearing the words, Concubine De looked Feng Jingsu up and down before saying: "I am really scared to death by you. This is like the empress's approach. She has always been decisive, and she will never hesitate to take action when she thinks it is necessary to get rid of. Before she Miss Xue San was not killed, and she did not kill you this time, she will definitely do it again. Yun Yi, you should think of a countermeasure early."

Feng Jingsu nodded, "I see, Shuangniang."

When Feng Jingsu returned to the defense mansion, Qiao Zhi did not notice Xiao Changyu, "Senior sister, where is my master?"

"Master Xiao is still reminiscing with her apprentice." Feng Jingsu patted Qiao Zhi's head.

"What?" Qiao Zhi was shocked, "Why did you really accept an apprentice?" She grabbed Feng Jingsu's hand, "Is it a senior sister or a junior sister?"

Her voice was a little louder, which woke Xue Ai up.

The two turned their heads to look at Xue Ai who had opened his eyes. Qiao Zhi quickly covered her mouth and whispered, "I didn't mean to."

"Sister Su." Xue Ai sat up slowly, "Zhier, what are you talking about?"

"It's okay, Miss Ai, you and senior sister should rest early, I'll be leaving first." Qiao Zhi hurried away.

"Hey!" Xue Ai looked at Feng Jingsu, "Why did she run away?"

"She's afraid of disturbing us." Feng Jingsu came over and kissed her, "I'm going to wash up, please wait for me to come back."

"Okay." Xue Ai sat on the bed wrapped in a quilt, and straightened her long hair, which was messed up in sleep, so that she would not look too sloppy.

Meng An, who was already healed, heard a sound in the room here, so she hurried over to have a look.

"Meng'an, I want to take a bath." Xue Ai began to dislike herself, how long has she been lying on the bed.

"Miss, you can't take a bath now, you are still sick." Meng An smiled and pressed Xue Ai who was about to get out of bed, "You are weak, you have to be careful, this is what the princess said."

"I'm going to stink!" Xue Ai pouted.

Meng An coaxed Xue Ai out of bed anyway.

Feng Jingsu entered the door, Meng An finally breathed a sigh of relief, the lady is a bit difficult to coax recently.

"What's wrong?" Feng Jingsu waved her hand to let Mengan go out, and she hugged Xue Ai into her arms.

"I'm going to smell bad, I need to take a bath." Xue Ai was furious.

Feng Jingsu lowered her head and sniffed her neck, "It really stinks, so I'm the only one who doesn't dislike you."

Xue Ai knew that Feng Jingsu disagreed, but she still refused to give up. She fought for a long time, until she was breathless from Feng Jingsu's kiss. "What did you and Zhi'er say before?" She was playing with Feng Jingsu's long hair in her hands.

Feng Jingsu told about Princess Yongning, Xue Ai was surprised, "Princess Yongning hides so deeply!"

"That's right, no one knows that she has practiced martial arts in the palace. If I hadn't come back, she might have been able to hide forever."

Xue Ai leaned in Feng Jingsu's arms, "Princess Yongning is also a poor person. Even if she knows martial arts, she can't help the concubine Xian."

Xue Ai just said these words in passing, but it happened to remind Feng Jingsu that why Concubine Xian is still alive after being ill for so many years, it should be Princess Yongning who uses her own internal strength to help Concubine Xian survive.

What Xue Ai thought was that Princess Yongning was Xiao Changyu's apprentice, which meant she was Fei Yejin's disciple, so would she help Feng Jingsu?

"Will Princess Yongning stand by your side?" She raised her head and asked.

Feng Jingsu shook her head, "You also said that the second sister is a poor person, and I don't want her to be involved in my affairs."

Xue Ai nodded, and suddenly smiled and kissed Feng Jingsu's chin.

"What's wrong?" Feng Jingsu bowed her head and kissed her back.

"No, I just think Sister Su is a very kind person." She hugged Feng Jingsu's neck and pressed her body tightly against Feng Jingsu's body.

Because Xue Ai is still ill, Feng Jingsu has been honest these days, now that Xue Ai has no intention of going to sleep, she gently presses Xue Ai, "Do you miss me?"

Xue Ai blushed, but her eyes were extremely bright, she bit her lip, "Think."

Look, the two hit it off so well on this kind of thing.

Xiao Changyu chatted with Princess Yongning about the past few years, and then looked at Princess Yongning's martial arts.Princess Yongning is very smart and has a high talent in martial arts, so she can practice martial arts by herself.Xiao Changyu tried her internal strength, "Yo! Such a high internal strength, how did you practice it?"

Princess Yongning said honestly: "Ever since I made a little success in practicing kung fu, I always input a little internal energy into my concubine to help her survive, which has allowed her to support her for so many years."
