Sunny Vientiane
Chapter 34
In fact, Jiang Shuihan's alcohol was not completely over. After sitting for a while, he couldn't bear to lie down on the table and fell asleep.Xin Yueming sighed, took a thin quilt from the bed and covered him, then picked up Jiang Qianqian who almost fell to the ground, and gently placed him on the bed.Seeing the two fell into a deep sleep, Xin Yueming quietly walked out of the room, ready to visit Mu Xi next door.
As soon as he closed the door, Jiang Qianqian on the bed opened her eyes, listened carefully to the footsteps next door, and made sure that Xin Yueming was going to visit Mu Xi instead of leaving, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep contentedly.
After the wooden door was pushed open, there was a creaking sound, and Mu Xi, who fell on the bed in a daze, sat up straight suddenly, stared at Xin Yueming with red eye circles for a long time, and then put down his vigilance and lay down on the bed again.
"How is it? Does your head still hurt?" Xin Yueming sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to touch Mu Xi's forehead to confirm that she didn't have a fever, and said softly, "I've already told Qianqian, she knows she's wrong, don't be angry, sleep."
"Actually, I can't completely blame her." Mu Xi said slowly with a heavy nasal voice, "I just couldn't control it for a while."
Xin Yueming patted her on the shoulder, thought for a while, and then said, "Muxi, don't force yourself like this, although I don't know if I'm a friend in your opinion, but if you have any uncomfortable things in your heart, you can Tell me, and I promise to keep my mouth shut."
"No need." Mu Xi got up and blew his nose on Xin Yueming's sleeve, and said casually, "Just take care of your precious junior sister."
Seeing Mu Xi who found a new place to lie down and sleep, Xin Yueming held up her sleeves, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "I'm going out to buy sober medicine, you can sleep for a while."
He sighed, stood up and took off his outer robe, ready to go back to his room and change clothes. When he reached the door, he stopped, "I'm not as good as Song Tingchuan who can carry the entire Wuwei Sect on his shoulders, at least, he can carry the entire Wuwei Sect on his shoulders." Let me lean on you."
Both Jiang Shuihan and Jiang Qianqian slept in their own room, and Xin Yueming had to move lightly to change clothes, but even so, Jiang Qianqian was woken up.
She rubbed her eyes and asked doubtfully, "Little brother, what clothes are you changing?"
Xin Yueming glanced at the sleeping Jiang Shuihan, and said softly, "The clothes are dirty, change them."
Jiang Qianqian thought about it, and hurriedly said, "Little senior brother, you don't mean to run away!"
Xin Yueming helped her forehead helplessly, "No, I'm really just changing clothes."
"I don't believe it." Jiang Qianqian lay on the table and stared at Xin Yueming, "What did you just say to that guy?"
Xin Yueming changed her clothes, sat opposite Jiang Qianqian and said seriously, "Qianqian, why are you so angry with Mu Xi?" In fact, Jiang Qianqian is not a vexatious person, but Xin Yueming clearly sensed her hostility towards Mu Xi.
Jiang Qianqian rolled her eyes a few times, pursed her lips and thought about it, and then asked cautiously, "Little brother, what is the relationship between you and Mu Xi?"
"What's the relationship?" Xin Yueming struggled for a while, "Maybe it's a comrade-in-arms? Sympathy?"
Jiang Qianqian asked anxiously, "Then do you like her?"
Xin Yueming was amused by her, shook her head and said, "Qianqian, you don't think that because I like her, I stay in Wuwei Sect and don't go back to Qingshan, do you?"
He saw Jiang Qianqian bowed her head in silence, and immediately understood that the girl had misunderstood.
"To me, she is just like you." Xin Yueming smiled, "It's a bit like a younger sister."
Hearing this, Jiang Qianqian glanced at Jiang Shuihan, and asked again, "Is it important to me or her?"
"As important."
With a disappointed expression on Jiang Qianqian's face, she sighed, "I'm afraid I'm not as important as her."
"You think too much." Xin Yueming said, "Qianqian, I hope you can live in peace with her."
"I don't want it." Jiang Qianqian looked up at the ceiling and hummed, "Why?"
"Just because she's not as lucky as you."
Jiang Qianqian was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion, "How lucky without me?"
Xin Yueming nodded, and relayed the story Mu Xi told her to Jiang Qianqian.Jiang Qianqian supported her head, which was not fully awake, and was a little confused for a while.
"So, her mother died?" Jiang Qianqian asked cautiously.
"En." Xin Yueming replied, "In the past few years, she only went home to visit her grandfather during the New Year and holidays. I don't know her exact identity. She is probably a relative of the emperor. Although people always call her a princess, but with Compared with you, she doesn't even have the chance to be willful."
It turned out to be like this.After hearing Xin Yueming's words, Jiang Qianqian's original jealousy and resentment towards Mu Xi disappeared in an instant, and she suddenly felt guilty. She was indeed too willful last night. She even made her meat pad on the ground, she should really apologize.
Xin Yueming yawned, stood up and said, "I'm going out to buy anti-alcohol medicine, if you can't sleep, go downstairs and have some breakfast, let Xiao Han and Mu Xi have a good rest."
"I'm not that ignorant." Jiang Qianqian didn't have the confidence to say this. She looked at Xin Yueming's back and raised her voice, "Go early and come back early."
"Hey." Without looking back, Xin Yueming stretched out her hand and waved it, signaling him to remember it.
After a whole night of tossing, the sky had already turned slightly white. Xiaoer only opened the door when Xin Yueming went downstairs. The water on the ground had just been sprinkled once, and it was slowly evaporating in this cool morning.Xiaoer was setting up tables and chairs, and seeing Xin Yueming walking over, he couldn't help but greet him.
"Guest officer, how did you sleep last night?"
Thinking of the trouble last night, Xin Yueming replied without blushing, "Not bad."
"Do you need to prepare breakfast?"
"Oh, just send it upstairs." Xin Yueming asked, "I don't know if there is a pharmacy near here, I'll go buy some medicine to sober up."
The business of this inn was booming, and there were guests coming to stay early in the morning. The waiter simply pointed Xin Yueming in the direction of the pharmacy, and then turned around to greet the new guests.Xin Yueming was just about to go out, but was attracted by the words of the few people sitting nearby having breakfast.His steps towards the outside naturally turned to the side. Xiaoer saw that he turned the direction a little strangely, but following the principle of asking less and doing more, he offered Xin Yueming a pot of tea, and then turned to do his own business.
"Once the Chen Zhuang bandit dies, the Chen family will be completely controlled by Chen Zhuangfu." One of them said, "Chen Zhuangfu is lucky now. Don't worry about having a Chen Zhuang bandit next to him, fighting for power all day long." gone."
"Doesn't Chen Zhuang Bandit have a son named Chen Chuanli?"
"Chen Chuanli is just a yellow-mouthed kid with no hair yet, can he beat Chen Zhuangfu?"
"Indeed, Chen Zhuangfu, Xiao Yuqing, Lin Zhicheng and others have always been on good terms. In the future, the five great families will really unite together. This time, the major factions join forces to destroy the Hehuan Sect. It seems that they will return victorious."
"What is this?" Another person whispered, "Who knows if the Hehuan Sect teamed up with Chen Zhuangfu and did it on purpose?"
"How?" Someone always asked curiously.
"Back when the Xin family was destroyed, it was said that the demon sect was coveting all things, but there were also rumors that the Acacia Sect cooperated with a sect Zhengdao to take away the remnants of all things."
"Here." Hearing all kinds of things, the expressions of the few people changed, "it's better to say less about such things, no matter what, the five great families decided to encircle and suppress the Hehuan Sect for the benefit of the martial arts, so that everyone will not be intruded by the demon sect in the future .”
Xin Yueming raised her brows. Based on the situation, it seems that during the time he left, Xiao Yuqing and the others had already reached an agreement to encircle and suppress the Hehuan Sect.However, that person was somewhat right.Back then, apart from the Hehuan Sect, there was indeed a shadow of the so-called decent existence of the famous sect.However, he has been secretly investigating for many years, and still has no clues, and he has no choice but to cooperate with Xiao Yuqing.
Since it was encircling and suppressing the Hehuan Sect, Xiao Yuqing probably didn't have time these few days. After drinking his tea, he stood up and walked out slowly.Xiao Yuqing sent people to track down Yediexian and Mrs. Nishang earlier, and also wanted to find clues about the person behind them.
That person must have played a role in fueling the flames of this alliance of the five great families. In this case, it is impossible for Immortal Ye Die to not know.So the line is probably broken.
But that's not what he's thinking about now.
Regardless of whether the person who cooperated with Hehuanzong was Chen Zhuangfu or not, at least the appearance of Yediexian and Mrs. Nishang made him suspect that the everything in Hehuanzong's hands had not been lost.
If it is true, as the rumors say, the fragments of the book are missing, and the first person who can't sit still is Meng Qianxun.It is impossible for Mrs. Nishang to poison the Chen Zhuang gangsters to death and then give up. With the usual habits of the members of the Hehuan Sect, how can they not be calmed down unless they turn the Chen family upside down.Before, he suspected that the rumors were true, and he had been in contact with Chen Zhuang bandits all the time, so he wanted to take advantage of the old man's birthday to come to Chen's house to search.
On the way, he saw Yediexian's subordinates of Hehuanzong chasing and killing Chen Chuanli, which made him firmer in this idea, thinking that all things had been stolen by the Chen family.But the death of bandit Chen Zhuang the night before made him start to waver.
So why did Yediexian and Mrs. Nishang go to the Chen family? Did the Chen Zhuang bandit become Chen Zhuangfu's scapegoat?In other words, the bandit Chen Zhuang knew something ulterior, so he was silenced by Mrs. Nishang?But if this is the case, why would someone give him a palm after being poisoned?
He knocked on the door of the pharmacy with a headache, and returned to the inn with the hangover medicine. At this time, it was already bright, and the cries around him gradually sounded, mixed with the smell of breakfast.
"morning."
Xin Yueming stared at the person in front of him for a while, before realizing, "Why are you here again?"
Fortunately, there were people coming and going on the street, and no one noticed him and Xiao Yuqing, so they hurriedly dragged Xiao Yuqing to the inn.I thought that the five great families were discussing the matter of exterminating the Hehuan Sect. As the Xiao family, he should be present, but I didn't expect him to be so carefree.
Xin Yueming couldn't help but said, "In broad daylight, you dare to show your face at this time."
Xiao Yuqing smiled and said, "Second Master Xin dares to take off his mask and wander the streets, why can't I show my face here?"
The two were agile and plainly dressed, and no one noticed when they hurried upstairs.Xin Yueming didn't even think about it, she pushed Xiao Yuqing into her room, called Xiaoer, and ordered the medicine to be decocted and delivered.Turning around and entering the room, I saw Jiang Qianqian and Xiao Yuqing staring at each other.
Xin Yueming couldn't cry, so she laughed quickly, "Well, I just met Young Master Xiao while I was walking, so I asked him to come and have a seat." Then, he pulled Xiao Yuqing up and was about to go out, "Qianqian, you stay here, Xiao and I Let's discuss something, sir."
As soon as he took a step, he heard Jiang Shuihan's voice behind him, "What are you discussing, avoiding me and Qianqian?"
"In that case, let's talk about it here."
Xiao Yuqing sat down and looked at Xin Yueming with a smile, "Mr. Xin, please."
Please, please, Xin Yueming almost gritted his white teeth when he saw Xiao Yuqing who had nothing to do but looked light and unrestrained.Jiang Shuihan and Jiang Qianqian spent most of their time in Qingshan, isolated from the world, why let them know so much and cause more trouble.Ganqing is not his younger brother and younger sister, so naturally he doesn't worry about this.
"Say it." Xin Yueming sat aggressively opposite Xiao Yuqing and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Xiao Yuqing said directly, "My people have found out that the Chen Zhuang gangsters have been secretly transferring property recently. Even Chen Chuanli seldom replied to Xinzhou in recent years, which is also his fault."
Xin Yueming was choked by Xiao Yuqing's words, and she was stunned for a while before saying, "Transfer property? Could it be that the Chen family is going to collapse?"
"No." Xiao Yuqing shook her head and said, "In recent years, the Chen family has joined Jiangnan Dao to monitor the censor, and the private salt business has flourished. I can understand that the Chen Zhuang bandits want to compete with Chen Zhuangfu for sovereignty, but he I just want to pack up the guy and run away."
"So, it should be other things that happened in the Chen family that made him restless."
"When I was investigating these private affairs of the Chen family, I found a very interesting thing."
"Is it related to Chen Zhuangfu?"
Xiao Yuqing nodded and said, "The Chen family is doing silk and satin business in Jiangnan. Nine years ago, they suddenly hooked up with the supervisory censor and started buying and selling private salt. It can be said that in the past few years, the entire salt industry in Jiangnan has almost been controlled. In the hands of the Chen family. The time when the Chen Zhuang bandits transferred their property was around this time."
Jiang Shuihan and Jiang Qianqian shivered. Nine years ago, when the Xin family was destroyed.But Xin Yueming on the side looked indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with him.
"Even if Chen Zhuangfu found out about the private transaction between Chen Zhuangfu and the supervisory censor, the Chen Zhuang bandits shouldn't be scared into transferring property." Jiang Qianqian couldn't help but interrupted.
"That's right." Xiao Yuqing took a sip of tea and continued, "So I suspect that Chen Zhuangfu took possession of the fragmented scroll, as the rumors say."
Jiang Shuihan asked, "Do you suspect that Chen Zhuangfu hooked up with the supervisory censor by using the remnants of all kinds of books?"
"No, it should be that Chen Zhuangfu hooked up the entire imperial court by using the fragments of all kinds of scrolls," Xin Yueming said slowly, "It is not easy to solve the problem of being found selling private salt. The heads of the Chen family are not enough to be chopped off. Since he has the courage It's so big, a Jiangnan Taoist supervisor is not qualified, at least, the emperor should know."
"The 24th Bridge sent people to celebrate the birthday of the old man of the Chen family, which can also explain some problems." Xiao Yuqing said, "The people behind Yediexian probably also know that there are all kinds of scrolls hidden on the island, so they ordered him to come and look for them, but I can't figure out why Mrs. Nishang poisoned her."
"Is there anything in this world that you can't figure out?" Xin Yueming snorted, "Both Mu Xi and I suspect that Mrs. Nishang killed the wrong person."
"Mrs. Nishang killed the wrong person. But if the one she wanted to kill was really Chen Zhuangfu, it means that more than one decent family participated in it nine years ago. Mrs. Nishang is not a person like 24 Qiao who pretends to be a swindler with the reputation of her predecessors. She How could she have given the wrong poison, unless she thought that the one she was going to kill was the Chen Zhuang bandit from the very beginning."
"There are so many things." Xin Yueming put his hand on his forehead and sneered, "Of course it's something that a group of people want to snap up."
"So you'd better wear a mask during this time." Xiao Yuqing said, "The enemy is in the dark, but you are in the light. Excessive exposure will affect too much."
Jiang Qianqian retorted, "What's the impact? We Xiaoyao faction are not afraid of trouble!" She had long wanted to beat Xiao Yuqing, and it just so happened that she had to seize this opportunity.
"Qianqian." Xin Yueming stopped the excited Jiang Qianqian, and said helplessly, "He didn't mean that he was afraid of affecting the Xiaoyao faction. My identity is too eye-catching, and it is easy to startle the snake."
"Oh." Jiang Qianqian froze immediately when she heard this, "I see."
"What are you going to do next?" Jiang Shuihan asked, "Since the other party is in the dark, it's hard to find clues."
"Go to Hehuanzong." Xin Yueming looked at Xiao Yuqing with raised eyebrows, and said, "Since the five great families are taking the lead in encircling and suppressing Hehuanzong, how can we not watch such a good show?"
Jiang Qianqian turned her head quickly, and immediately thought of the surroundings, "I know. If there are people from the five great families who cooperate with the Hehuan Sect, they will definitely show their feet."
"No." Xin Yueming shook his head and said, "Since we have cooperated, that person must have informed Hehuanzong in advance. Mess around."
"Then what are you going to see?"
"Watch a play."
"What's there to see?" Jiang Qianqian muttered, looking at Jiang Shuihan, "Senior brother, what shall we do?"
Jiang Shuihan had been staring at Xin Yueming before, but when he heard Jiang Qianqian's question, he looked away and let out a deep breath, "Let's go back to Qingshan."
"Go back so soon?"
"After being out for so long, Master will definitely be worried." Jiang Shuihan said calmly, "If there is something, I have to tell Master and senior brother."
Xin Yueming's complexion remained unchanged, but he didn't dare to meet Jiang Shuihan's eyes. He was full of guilt. He left Qingshan for so many years and didn't go back. The younger brother and younger sister had to inform the master and senior brother that he was not dead.
What a coward he was.
As soon as he closed the door, Jiang Qianqian on the bed opened her eyes, listened carefully to the footsteps next door, and made sure that Xin Yueming was going to visit Mu Xi instead of leaving, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep contentedly.
After the wooden door was pushed open, there was a creaking sound, and Mu Xi, who fell on the bed in a daze, sat up straight suddenly, stared at Xin Yueming with red eye circles for a long time, and then put down his vigilance and lay down on the bed again.
"How is it? Does your head still hurt?" Xin Yueming sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to touch Mu Xi's forehead to confirm that she didn't have a fever, and said softly, "I've already told Qianqian, she knows she's wrong, don't be angry, sleep."
"Actually, I can't completely blame her." Mu Xi said slowly with a heavy nasal voice, "I just couldn't control it for a while."
Xin Yueming patted her on the shoulder, thought for a while, and then said, "Muxi, don't force yourself like this, although I don't know if I'm a friend in your opinion, but if you have any uncomfortable things in your heart, you can Tell me, and I promise to keep my mouth shut."
"No need." Mu Xi got up and blew his nose on Xin Yueming's sleeve, and said casually, "Just take care of your precious junior sister."
Seeing Mu Xi who found a new place to lie down and sleep, Xin Yueming held up her sleeves, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "I'm going out to buy sober medicine, you can sleep for a while."
He sighed, stood up and took off his outer robe, ready to go back to his room and change clothes. When he reached the door, he stopped, "I'm not as good as Song Tingchuan who can carry the entire Wuwei Sect on his shoulders, at least, he can carry the entire Wuwei Sect on his shoulders." Let me lean on you."
Both Jiang Shuihan and Jiang Qianqian slept in their own room, and Xin Yueming had to move lightly to change clothes, but even so, Jiang Qianqian was woken up.
She rubbed her eyes and asked doubtfully, "Little brother, what clothes are you changing?"
Xin Yueming glanced at the sleeping Jiang Shuihan, and said softly, "The clothes are dirty, change them."

With a disappointed expression on Jiang Qianqian's face, she sighed, "I'm afraid I'm not as important as her."
"You think too much." Xin Yueming said, "Qianqian, I hope you can live in peace with her."
"I don't want it." Jiang Qianqian looked up at the ceiling and hummed, "Why?"
"Just because she's not as lucky as you."
Jiang Qianqian was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion, "How lucky without me?"
Xin Yueming nodded, and relayed the story Mu Xi told her to Jiang Qianqian.Jiang Qianqian supported her head, which was not fully awake, and was a little confused for a while.
"So, her mother died?" Jiang Qianqian asked cautiously.
"En." Xin Yueming replied, "In the past few years, she only went home to visit her grandfather during the New Year and holidays. I don't know her exact identity.

Jiang Shuihan asked, "Do you suspect that Chen Zhuangfu hooked up with the supervisory censor by using the remnants of all kinds of books?"
"No, it should be that Chen Zhuangfu hooked up the entire imperial court by using the fragments of all kinds of scrolls," Xin Yueming said slowly, "It is not easy to solve the problem of being found selling private salt. The heads of the Chen family are not enough to be chopped off. Since he has the courage It's so big, a Jiangnan Taoist supervisor is not qualified, at least, the emperor should know."
"The 24th Bridge sent people to celebrate the birthday of the old man of the Chen family, which can also explain some problems." Xiao Yuqing said, "The people behind Yediexian probably also know that there are all kinds of scrolls hidden on the island, so they ordered him to come and look for them, but I can't figure out why Mrs. Nishang poisoned her."
"Is there anything in this world that you can't figure out?" Xin Yueming snorted, "Both Mu Xi and I suspect that Mrs. Nishang killed the wrong person."
"Mrs. Nishang killed the wrong person. But if the one she wanted to kill was really Chen Zhuangfu, it means that more than one decent family participated in it nine years ago. Mrs. Nishang is not a person like 24 Qiao who pretends to be a swindler with the reputation of her predecessors. She How could she have given the wrong poison, unless she thought that the one she was going to kill was the Chen Zhuang bandit from the very beginning."
"There are so many things." Xin Yueming put his hand on his forehead and sneered, "Of course it's something that a group of people want to snap up."
"So you'd better wear a mask during this time." Xiao Yuqing said, "The enemy is in the dark, but you are in the light. Excessive exposure will affect too much."
Jiang Qianqian retorted, "What's the impact? We Xiaoyao faction are not afraid of trouble!" She had long wanted to beat Xiao Yuqing, and it just so happened that she had to seize this opportunity.
"Qianqian." Xin Yueming stopped the excited Jiang Qianqian, and said helplessly, "He didn't mean that he was afraid of affecting the Xiaoyao faction. My identity is too eye-catching, and it is easy to startle the snake."
"Oh." Jiang Qianqian froze immediately when she heard this, "I see."
"What are you going to do next?" Jiang Shuihan asked, "Since the other party is in the dark, it's hard to find clues."
"Go to Hehuanzong." Xin Yueming looked at Xiao Yuqing with raised eyebrows, and said, "Since the five great families are taking the lead in encircling and suppressing Hehuanzong, how can we not watch such a good show?"
Jiang Qianqian turned her head quickly, and immediately thought of the surroundings, "I know. If there are people from the five great families who cooperate with the Hehuan Sect, they will definitely show their feet."
"No." Xin Yueming shook his head and said, "Since we have cooperated, that person must have informed Hehuanzong in advance. Mess around."
"Then what are you going to see?"
"Watch a play."
"What's there to see?" Jiang Qianqian muttered, looking at Jiang Shuihan, "Senior brother, what shall we do?"
Jiang Shuihan had been staring at Xin Yueming before, but when he heard Jiang Qianqian's question, he looked away and let out a deep breath, "Let's go back to Qingshan."
"Go back so soon?"
"After being out for so long, Master will definitely be worried." Jiang Shuihan said calmly, "If there is something, I have to tell Master and senior brother."
Xin Yueming's complexion remained unchanged, but he didn't dare to meet Jiang Shuihan's eyes. He was full of guilt. He left Qingshan for so many years and didn't go back. The younger brother and younger sister had to inform the master and senior brother that he was not dead.
What a coward he was.
