different paths

His question was very unreasonable, Yue Chentan frowned, and was about to speak, when he heard a burst of laughter from outside Yaoguang Hall, as the laughter approached, the smell of alcohol became more and more intense in the nostrils.The person who came didn't open his mouth, he burped contentedly, and said, "Brother Jia, long time no see." Then he scanned the circle of people suspiciously, "What are you doing around him? He's my friend." people."

After the words "my people" came out, Yue Chentan's expression became cold, let alone warm.

"Oh, isn't this Elder Qiu?" A pretentious voice sounded, it was Zhuang Kegou.

"Oh, it turns out that Elder Zhuang is here too." Qiu Wanzhan half-opened his eyes in bewilderment, glanced at Zhuang Bugou, then put his arm around Jia Wuchai's shoulder and said, "This is Hunqiu when I was in Longyuan Villa." Newly recruited little brother. He used to be a clerk at the inn. When Yue Shaoxia was ill, he was able to recover thanks to his care. The Shaolin monks have kindly treated us beggars. This time I heard that both the northern and southern sects of Shaolin will come to Hanzan Palace , I asked him to go find Yue Shaoxia first, so that he could take care of him along the way."

"So that's it." Zhuang Bugou showed a not-so-friendly smile on his face, "It turned out that he was walking with Elder Qiu, so it's no wonder that his outfit is also very similar."

Among the beggar gang, the clean-loving people of the Clean Clothes Sect have always looked down on the unkempt and unkempt people of the Stained Clothes Sect. In addition, although Zhuang Bugou and Qiu Wanzhan are both elders of the Nine Pockets, they are far less famous than Qiu Wanzhan outside, so they naturally treat him Secretly hate.Whenever there is a chance, they will find him unhappy.Knowing that this sharp-tongued kid is actually Qiu Wanzhan's subordinate, he naturally brought his hatred for him to the Dirty Clothes Sect. For a while, the disciples of the Slaughter and Cleaner Sects glared at each other, and the atmosphere was a little tense.

Qiu Wanzhan didn't seem to understand his sarcasm, and wiped Jia Wuzhan's muddy face casually, and said with a smile: "I used to think that Brother Jia was good at everything, but his clothes were too decent. It’s a little bit more. Now that it’s like this, I think it’s just right!” As he spoke, he said to Zhuang Bugou, who was dressed decently but had a very unseemly expression at the moment, “Elder Zhuang, what do you think?”

Zhuang Bugou snorted coldly, winked at his subordinates, and stepped aside.

Qiu Wanzhan patted Jia Wuzhan's hand seemingly unintentionally. Jia Wuzhan felt something was stuffed into his hand. He raised his eyes to see that Qiu Wanzhan was walking towards Yi Qingling step by step. up.

"Palace Master Yi, I don't know where Lao Qu is now? He probably hid because he knew I wanted to ask him for some songs." Qiu Wanzhan asked with a drunken smile.

Yi Qingling said with a slight smile: "Just now when I was discussing the countermeasures, I didn't notice it for a while, and it reminded Sister Qu of the sad things again, so the owner of Qu Zhuang took her away first. If Elder Qiu wants to find them, you might as well go to Luofu Look at Feng."

"So that's it." Qiu Wanzhan nodded, and then said carelessly, "Palace Master Yi, from what I've seen along the way, there's something I think you've done that's not authentic."

"Oh?" Yi Qing smiled cleverly.

"I went up the mountain all the way, it was so dull that it was really boring." He glanced at Jia Wujue, "But judging from Brother Jia and Brother Yue, this journey up the mountain seems to be quite interesting, why does Palace Master Yi treat one more than another? "

"There is more than one way to go up the mountain, which one to take is not chosen by oneself?" Yi Qing pointed out in a spirited way.

Qiu Wanzhan let out a "huh" and seemed to be convinced: "It seems that I was unlucky and didn't choose the most interesting one. But as far as I know, brother Yue has a serious illness. I think he His current complexion seems to be very bad."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Shaolin calling "Master Uncle" with full of concern. The Buddha's name rose and fell, and the smile on Yi Qingling's face did not diminish. He blinked and said: "Everyone who comes is a guest. Since Yue Shaoxia If he is ill, I, Hanzan Palace, will naturally not let him leave with illness. In fact, I noticed it just now, but I didn’t have a chance to say it.”

She turned to the two little boys guarding the door and said, "The stars are bright and the moon is bright, why don't you come and help Yue Shaoxia go to Suihan Zhai to rest?" She then turned to Yue Chentan and said, "I have ordered the maids to go to the Zhai to clean up first. Stay at ease. Suihanzhai is on the Lingyao Peak, and the disciples of this peak specialize in medical skills. Later, they will go to Suihanzhai to take Yue Shaoxia's pulse."

When others saw her hospitality, they would never have thought that Yue Chentan and Jia Wujue became what they are now, all thanks to him.Yue Chentan gave her a cold look, but did not answer.

When Fanxing and Langyue walked up to Yue Chentan with smiles, Jia Wujue said to Yi Qingling: "Brother Yue is happy, keep things simple, and it's best not to make any extravagance, unexpected surprises, etc. matter."

Yi Qingling pursed her lips and smiled when she heard the words: "Don't worry, Your Excellency, Suihanzhai is the quietest place, and the servants I sent are also the most sensible servants."

Jia Wujue glanced at her, his restless eyes met each other, and within a short moment, they both understood what the other party had hidden.Yi Qingling smiled interestedly, but Jia Wujue turned his back, walked to Yue Chentan's side and said in a low voice, "Go and rest first, I'll be there later."

Yue Chentan took a deep look at him, his eyes were dim, but in the end he only said two words: "Be careful." Jia Wukai nodded his head in earnest, until Yue Chentan's figure completely disappeared outside Yaoguang Hall, He just looked back.

Luo Fufeng, Zhu Mingzhai.

Qu Zequan bowed respectfully to the visitor and said, "See the king."

The visitor was dressed in brocade clothes and a jade belt, and greeted him warmly, gave him a little support, and walked with him: "We are all a family, why should Brother Qu be so polite? According to seniority, Brother Qu can still be regarded as my brother-in-law What?" The words were sincere, but the person who spoke was a nobleman, so how dare Qu Zequan speak indiscriminately.

He was cautious in his words and deeds, even if someone pulled his arm, he deliberately slowed down and let the other party go first.Having been immersed in the court for many years, Qu Zequan is more like a thoughtful temple man than a free-spirited Jianghu man.

The two walked into the room, and a girl who was in the cardamom was leaning on the rose chair, holding a wet handkerchief in her hand, her eyes were slightly red, as if she had just cried.However, she was born lovely and charming, and now the tears are looming on her face, which is even more pitiful to me.When she saw someone coming, she lowered her head abruptly, two blushes appeared on her snowy cheeks, her white fingers twisted the brocade handkerchief from time to time, she seemed restless and shy.

Although she is from the martial arts world, Qu Hongxiao is a girl in her boudoir after all, and she has not seen many men before. This time, a man with flirtatious eyebrows and eyes suddenly appeared in front of her. It is reasonable for her to have abnormal heartbeat.

Qu Zequan saw that Qu Hongxiao didn't salute the guest but lowered his head like a quail. He frowned and was about to speak when Gu Yiming shook his head at him with a smile, then walked towards Qu Hongxiao and praised him with a smile. Said: "This is my future sister-in-law, right? I really didn't expect that the emperor's sister-in-law turned out to be such a beautiful person."

It's fine if he doesn't say it, but Qu Hongxiao's face turned even redder after saying this.She secretly glanced at him, only to see his long eyebrows tucked into his temples, his plain face like jade, noticing her eyes, his pair of tender and affectionate phoenix eyes immediately looked over, Qu Hongxiao hurriedly lowered her head in a panic, and continued to act Shrunken quail.

"Sister She is introverted and not good at socializing, so please don't take offense." Seeing that her sister was so disappointing, Qu Zequan had no choice but to bite the bullet and apologize.

"It doesn't matter." Gu Yiming said indifferently, "The emperor's sister-in-law is quiet and demure, and she cannot be compared with those women who are good at dancing."

Hearing this, Qu Hongxiao's cheeks became more and more beautiful.

"I don't know why the king is here this time, why?" Qu Zequan asked after serving tea for Gu Yiming.

Gu Yiming looked solemn and said: "When something like this happens to the emperor's sister-in-law, brothers naturally can't stand by and watch. I came here this time to check on the emperor's wife's recent situation for the emperor's brother. If there is a shortage of food and clothing Yes, just open your mouth to me. On the other hand, since this thief dares to provoke my royal family, he should be prepared accordingly." He said sharply, "I heard that many martial arts comrades gathered together for this matter. Do your part too."

After hearing this, Qu Zequan was naturally grateful, if Gu Yiming hadn't stopped him, he would have knelt down and kowtowed to Gu Yiming.After Gu Yiming left, Qu Hongxiao, who had been silent all this time, finally said, "Brother, you said the reason why Wang came here this time is..."

"I'm afraid it was made for the First Prince to see."

"But I'm already like this, yet he still calls me 'Emperor's Wife'..." Qu Hongxiao tightened her handkerchief, paused, and said in a low voice, "Isn't the eldest prince still welcoming me into the mansion?"

Qu Zequan's eyes sharpened, he stared at her and said, "Why, don't you really want to marry the First Prince?"

"No, no." Qu Hongxiao hastily lowered her head, and mumbled, "It's just that something like this happened, I'm afraid no one would be willing to marry a woman like me."

Seeing her sad look, Qu Zequan couldn't help but slow down a bit: "Don't worry, even if the eldest prince doesn't want to, I will..."

So too, but he didn't say it.But in this case, not only did Qu Hongxiao not be comforted, but it also made her face a little sad, or in order to let her brother forgive her, she forced a smile on her face.

Outside Yaoguang Hall, in a secluded corner where few people passed by, Qiu Wanzhan looked at Jia Wuhai and sighed heavily.

"Why are you here?" Qiu Wanzhan said helplessly, "Where there is muddy water, where are you going to step on?"

Jia Wujue also let out a long sigh helplessly: "I'm afraid you won't believe me if I tell you, the flower picker on the reward list looks like me."
