Looking to the Thirteen Rivers

"Wan Shu is already on the way back to the palace with Huai Wei," Man Jiangxue said, "When they arrive, they can ask the matter clearly."

Xie Yijun was taken aback again: "Wanshu? Isn't she still in retreat?"

Man Jiangxue said as usual: "I told her to leave the customs secretly, in order to let her secretly check the secret operations in the palace."

Xie Yijun glanced at her, and snorted: "You asked her to leave the customs?" She moved her eyes to look at Wen Chaoyu next to her, and said inexplicably, "Do you really think I'm so easy to deceive?"

Wen Chaoyu fiddled with his hands and said, "Look at what I'm doing? I didn't let her go out."

Xie Yijun said: "Seeing that the day of Wanshu's retreat is approaching, she left the customs early, and even went to Weicheng to investigate the details, and even kept it from me. With a little brain, she can figure out why she is going to Weicheng. You are a traitor, you are harming the palace gate and misleading people's children!"

Wen Zhaoyu said: "I reluctantly admit that I have misunderstood my son, but what is the reason for harming the palace gate? During the years I was in Yunhua Palace, I did not do anything harmful to nature. Why, people from our Ziwei sect can't come to your Yunhua Palace?" Did Huagong learn art from a teacher?"

"Nonsense!" Xie Yijun said coldly, "Of course not!"

"But I've already learned art from a teacher," Wen Chaoyu smiled bluntly, and poked Xie Yijun with his elbow, "At least we are in the same family, don't be so angry, I really didn't do anything to harm the palace. Why don't you just think that I came to the palace to study for a few years? What's the big deal, you've already become the head of the sect, and you're so small, you're not afraid that the juniors in this room will see jokes."

"Shut up," Xie Yijun looked at her, "According to the palace rules, those who defected from the teacher's sect will be exiled to Tianchi Lake on the spot. It's a big evil, I'm only willing to say a few more words to you at this moment, don't push your nose and face, you really want to annoy me, Nangong Min will not come to save you."

Wen Chaoyu said disdainfully: "Then what can you do to me? I want to testify for you that Lu Huaiwei is a spy. Do you understand etiquette for hospitality? If you really don't like me, let me go now, okay?" Talk about it!"

Xie Yijun sneered: "Let you go? You have a good idea. Now Yunhua Palace can't accommodate you, and the Ziwei Sect has already regarded you as a traitor. Wen Zhaoyu, you are not a human being inside and outside, and you still have the courage to shout. Wait until the matter of Huaiwei is over." , you'd better not ask me to protect you."

"Please, what are you doing?" Wen Chaoyu refused to give in to her at all, "I won't beg you even if I beg Man Jiangxue. Besides, if you are rude to me, I will abduct your chief disciple and run away. Where can I go to Yunhua Palace to find another future young master?"

"Drag her down and lock her up!" Xie Yijun finally ran out of patience, and shouted, "Now!"

Bai Ling scratched his head, looked at Man Jiangxue, Man Jiangxue didn't respond, Bai Ling could only wink at a few disciples outside the hall, Wen Chaoyu smiled and said: "Stingy, I don't need you to do it, I can walk by myself. "

After she finished speaking, she followed Bai Ling out of the palace. Seeing this, Xue Tan quickly followed Wen Zhaoyu's footsteps. They left the Mingguang Palace. Bai Ling was still thinking about where to lock Wen Chaoyu, but Wen Chaoyu He suggested to himself: "Let's go, go to Jingyue Peak to have a look."

Bai Ling asked in astonishment, "Jingyue Peak?"

Wen Chaoyu smiled: "That's the place where I used to stay, and I won't lose a piece of meat if I take a look."

After she finished speaking, she didn't care what Bai Ling did, and she led Xue Tan to Jingyue Peak in a familiar way. Bai Ling and his disciples looked at each other, but they couldn't speak to stop them for some reason, so they had to follow Wen Zhaoyu.

Xie Yijun saw Wen Chaoyu and others actually went to the direction of Jingyue Peak, and he had to give up after being furious, and sighed at Man Jiangxue: "Look, she went back to Yunhua Palace, it was like going back to her mother's house, no Those who knew really thought she was some kind of distinguished guest, she said Huai Wei was a spy, can this matter be reliable?"

"At present, it seems that Huai Wei is indeed very suspicious, and it is basically confirmed that it is her," Man Jiangxue said, "What's more, besides Wen Chaoyu, there is another Ding Lianzhen who can testify. We have ordered people to detain Ding Lianzhen earlier. After entering the punishment hall, we can call for interrogation together after Huaiwei returns."

Hearing Ding Lianzhen's name, Xie Yijun recalled for a while, and said, "Is that the Tianyin Peak female disciple who committed crimes a few years ago?"

Man Jiangxue nodded: "It's her, Huai Wei helped her escape from Tianchi, and falsely used the identity of a female disciple of Liuli Peak. The refugee poisoning case in Yao Dingcheng was all done by her and Huai Wei."

Xie Yijun's complexion changed a few times, and he couldn't help saying angrily: "It's really against the sky! How did you raise these hateful things?"

"It's good to be able to find out," Man Jiangxue said, "In this way, half of Zhilan's suspicions can be removed, and senior sister doesn't have to get angry. This is a good thing."

She used the word "half", and Xie Yijun naturally understood the meaning. Since Lu Huaiwei is a traitor, the mask material in Ye Zhilan's room is easy to explain. But regarding the formation of the disciples of the dark guard, Lu Huaiwei has never touched it. Ye Zhilan herself So far, it is still not clear what the beginning and the end are, so Ye Zhilan still cannot be easily excused.

"Then it depends on whether the disciple of the dark guard has something to do with Huai Wei." Xie Yijun pinched the center of his brows, his face was full of tiredness, "If the disciple of the dark guard is also the one behind her, then Zhilan can wash away Get rid of all charges."

"It's not that easy, there's still something I haven't told you," Man Jiangxue said, and then briefly summarized the matter of the Piper, and finally said, "She came after me, that's why Wen Zhaoyu was sent to rescue her." Xiao Qiu, this means that she and the disciples of the hidden guards are not in the same group, besides Huai Wei, there should be another person buried deeper in the palace."

Even though he had heard too many unexpected things today, Xie Yijun was still shocked when Man Jiangxue told about the flute player.

"So according to your speculation, Huai Wei may be an old person from Xiling Country? And the person behind the disciple of the hidden guard is another murderer who destroyed Ruyi Gate?"

The tea in the cup was cold, Man Jiangxue just glanced at it, Yin Qiu poured her a cup of hot tea thoughtfully, Man Jiangxue looked at Yin Qiu and replied, "Exactly."

"A beautiful Yunhua Palace has become a den of thieves!" Xie Yijun was furious, pacing back and forth, "If the master's spirit in the sky sees the current situation, he doesn't know how to scold me. This is really..."

During the conversation between the two of them, Yin Qiu never interrupted hastily, and only when he heard this, he comforted him in a warm voice: "Don't worry, head, things will always come to light one day. I won't blame you either."

Xie Yijun sighed: "Even if Master doesn't blame me, I won't feel better." She looked at Yin Qiu, "It's you, how can you cure the poison?"

Yin Qiu shook his head and said with a smile: "We haven't found a way yet, but we already know that Senior Sister Lu is a flute player. Let's talk about it when she comes back."

"Alright, she must know who the person behind the disciple of the hidden guard is," Xie Yijun pondered. "Anyway, just wait patiently. You're right. Things will be cleared up sooner or later. It's useless to be anxious now."

The three of them chatted for a while, until they had dinner together at noon, Man Jiangxue took Yin Qiu to Jingyue Peak, the two left Mingguang Palace, Yin Qiu offered to propose: "Uncle Wen went to Jingyue Peak, I'm afraid there will be accidents if Bai Ling is alone to take care of her, so I'll go back and watch, I want to go and search Senior Sister Lu's room."

Man Jiangxue said: "Okay, I'll go and touch her acupuncture points before I come to you."

Yin Qiu laughed: "Let's not go. I will revisit the old place after many years. I don't think Uncle Wen will run away so quickly. It's just that she is used to freedom. , she knows how to do her duty to some extent, there is no need for acupoint acupuncture, it will be good for Master Uncle to wait for me in Shen Xing Palace."

Man Jiangxue thought about it for a while, but she agreed. She hugged Yin Qiu in her arms, kissed Yin Qiu's forehead, and said, "The journey has been hard these few days. Go and come back quickly. Don't be too tired." .”

This is the only way to the Mingguang Palace. There are patrolling disciples and walking figures everywhere. Panicked, Yin Qiu hurriedly broke away from Man Jiangxue's arms, looked around cautiously and said, "Master... You have already returned to the palace, you can no longer be as casual as you are at the foot of the mountain, how decent is it to be seen?"

Man Jiangxue understood what she was worried about, but she still asked, "Are you afraid?"

Noticing that the disciples around him were already looking at them, Yin Qiu hurriedly dragged Man Jiangxue away and turned to a quiet and deserted stone path. Yin Qiu said in a low voice: "Of course I'm afraid, but I'm not afraid of anything else, I'm just afraid that my uncle will be criticized."

Man Jiangxue looked at her and smiled slightly: "Who dares to criticize me?"

Yin Qiu showed helplessness, looked at Man Jiangxue and said, "I don't dare to criticize publicly, but in my heart, my uncle is a person admired by thousands of people. I don't want my uncle to become the talk of others after dinner," she said at this point After a pause, he continued, "But Shishu also needs to know that I don't think that people who are shameless have to hide their secrets. I am very happy to be with Shishu, and I really want to get everyone's blessings, but we are like this... After all, there will be many people who can't accept it, so I don't want my uncle to bear those strange eyes, can my uncle understand?"

Man Jiangxue said: "I understand," she touched Yin Qiu's face, and said softly, "But these should be things I consider for you, you don't have to have too many scruples about this, I do too I'm afraid I'll wrong you, so I don't want to cover up one thing or two, if you think it's inappropriate, then I will pay more attention to it in the future, and everything will be up to you, do you think this is okay?"

When she said this, there was no doubt that she was pampering and loving on her face. This feeling of being cared for made Yin Qiu extremely moved. She slowly laughed and said softly: "Of course it's fine. In fact, I... ... I also don't want my uncle to be wronged."

"No one can wrong me," Man Jiangxue said with a smile, "You can rest assured about this."

Yin Qiu blushed slightly, looked around, pulled Man Jiangxue's sleeve and said, "Then now...there is no one left."

Man Jiangxue leaned over slightly, approached Yin Qiu, and deliberately asked, "So?"

Yin Qiu pursed his lips, looked at Man Jiangxue's face close at hand, hesitated for a moment, then stood on tiptoe and kissed her.

But after only touching it lightly, Yin Qiu blushed again and moved her lips away. She lowered her brows and said in a low voice, "It's better not to be too blatant, it won't affect you well."

"Then you still kiss me," Man Jiangxue said, "You have to pretend to be serious and avoid others, isn't it a bit of saying one thing and doing another?"

Yin Qiu said: "That's not what my uncle said. I just don't want to be too close to my uncle in front of others. Isn't there no one passing by now?"

Man Jiangxue said: "Who said no one passed by? Look at who is behind you."

Yin Qiu was stunned for a moment, panic welled up in her heart, but when she turned her head hesitantly, she found that there was no one behind her, Yin Qiu couldn't help but said angrily: "How can uncle lie? You are scared to death me."

"You haven't done anything wrong, what are you afraid of?" Man Jiangxue thought Yin Qiu was cute, and couldn't help teasing her, "There is really someone, you just didn't see it."

Yin Qiu said: "I don't believe it!" She stretched out her hand and pushed Man Jiangxue, then turned around and said, "I don't care about you, I still have to go and see Senior Sister Lu's room."

Man Jiangxue let out a low laugh from behind, and Yin Qiu was caught by her before taking two steps. Man Jiangxue hugged him and did not let go, and asked while kissing Yin Qiu, "Really ignore me?"

Yin Qiu was panting from her kiss, his waist was pinched tightly, and he couldn't stand still. Whenever Yin Qiu wanted to speak, Man Jiangxue blocked her from speaking again. After a while, Man Jiangxue raised his head and returned. He asked again, "Do you still care about me?"

Yin Qiu really had nothing to do with her, so he leaned against Man Jiangxue's arms and said, "Mmm..."

"Hmm," Man Jiangxue hugged him firmly, with a smile in his voice, "Hmm, what is it?"

Yin Qiu buried his face, couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said, "I'll take care of you...can't I take care of you?"

Only then did Man Jiangxue let go of Yin Qiu, and said in a gentle voice: "Of course that's fine, well, it's important to get down to business, you go first, remember to come back early."

Yin Qiu nodded, and reluctantly took two steps back. She looked at Man Jiangxue, stood there for a while, then ran to Man Jiangxue's arms, and kissed her again.

·

The sky was full of wind and snow, and the sky was almost dim. On the rugged and winding mountain road, a carriage passed through the quiet mountain forest, and stopped staggeringly at the side of a stream.

Ji Wanshu lost the reins and drank the last sip of water in the water bag. Lu Huaiwei opened the curtain to look and asked, "Where are you?"

"It's almost Shangyuan City." Ji Wanshu wiped the water stains on his lips with his sleeve, looked at the stream beside him, and said, "Do you still have water? Give me the water bag, and I'll fill some. "

The two days of rushing, Ji Wanshu hardly stopped on the way, Lu Huaiwei was shaking badly in the car, couldn't eat well, couldn't sleep well, and her complexion was very bad, she handed her water bag to Ji Wanshu, look Looking at Ji Wanshu's back, he said, "Why don't you find a place to rest later, I really can't hold it anymore."

Ji Wanshu filled both water bladders, jumped onto the frame again, and said, "How long have you been suffering from the cold, why is it still not getting better, did you bring the medicine?"

With a hoarse cough, Lu Huaiwei leaned against the door and said, "It's been more than a month, I'm always running around, how can I have time to calm down and recuperate?"

Ji Wanshu saw that she looked bad and she was panting, so she took off her robe and put it on for Lu Huaiwei.

No one moved around in the mountains, not even birds, and the surroundings were desolate and silent. Ji Wanshu drove the horse to search for half a day, and finally found a dilapidated mountain temple. She jumped out of the car and said to Lu Huaiwei through the curtain : "You wait, I'll clean up before you go."

Lu Huaiwei answered "OK" in the car, and Ji Wanshu entered the temple alone, made a bed on the floor with the mattress prepared in advance, and picked up some straw and dry firewood to make a fire. After finishing all this, she was about to He opened his mouth to ask Lu Huaiwei to come in, but when he turned around, he saw a few figures flashing in the corner of his eye. Ji Wanshu took a closer look and saw that Lu Huaiwei was being dragged by several people with a cotton cloth stuffed in her mouth and a hemp rope tied around her body. hurry away.

Someone wanted to kidnap her!

"stop!"

Ji Wanshu yelled sharply, and immediately drew out his sword and chased after them. Those people didn't even turn their heads when they heard the sound. Obviously, they knew that Ji Wanshu was not easy to provoke and didn't want to fight with her. Very fast.

After five years of retreat, Ji Wanshu's skills have already increased greatly, and she doesn't pay attention to these people at all. She raised her hand and threw her sword. The silver-white sword light with cold killing intent quickly rushed to Lu Huaiwei. , cut the rope on Lu Huaiwei's body very accurately.

Seeing this, Lu Huaiwei immediately struggled up, pulled out a hand and tore off the cotton cloth in her mouth, but she was sick and weak, so she had no power to resist at this moment, so she had to shout at Ji Wanshu : "Senior Sister! Help me!"

As soon as her words fell, Ji Wanshu had already chased after her. Lu Huaiwei was grabbed by the front of her front, and rushed to Ji Wanshu's chest. The clanging of swords and swords was deafening in her ears.

Lu Huaiwei's breathing became disordered, and her legs and feet became weak from the shock of this sudden situation. Ji Wanshu knew that she had no ability to protect herself right now, so she could only hug her and perform sword moves, not daring to throw people aside. Wan Shu's skills were too strong and difficult to deal with, so he immediately gave up trying to get Lu Huaiwei back, and retreated tacitly, planning to run away.

However, Ji Wanshu didn't give them a chance to escape, and immediately took Lu Huaiwei to the sky, and almost caught up with those people in the blink of an eye. The hot thing splashed onto her face, and when she looked sideways, she saw that the long sword in Ji Wanshu's hand was piercing someone's heart, and Lu Huaiwei's eyes were blood red in that place.

Holding a person in her arms was always a bit restrained, Ji Wanshu killed a person, and immediately threw Lu Huaiwei down. Lu Huaiwei exclaimed, and in the mid-air, she almost urged her true energy to fly to the ground. Before she could stand still, she fell He quickly raised his head again, Ji Wanshu's figure flashed in his sight, and they rushed into the woods and quickly disappeared.

The cold wind howled, and the blood on her face quickly became cold. Lu Huaiwei tried her best to call out to Ji Wanshu, but there was no response for a long time. She took a few handfuls of snow to wash off the blood on her face, and finally helped He stood up leaning on the tree trunk beside him. Fortunately, before he had gone far, a figure in Tsing Yi came slowly from the forest in front of him.Lu Huaiwei showed joy, endured the discomfort and ran for two steps, hoarsely shouted: "Senior Sister! Are you alright?"

Holding a long sword in her hand, Ji Wanshu walked through the forest step by step. For some reason, her brows suddenly became cold, with a chilling murderous intent in her eyes, and a coldness that could not be ignored all over her body.

Lu Huaiwei was taken aback by her appearance, and asked, "Senior sister...what's wrong with you?"

Ji Wanshu stood still in front of her, and only after a while did he say, "Who are those just now?"

Lu Huaiwei looked at her, coughed twice and said, "I don't know, I stayed in the car well, but they suddenly rushed into the carriage and tied me up...Did Senior Sister kill them all?"

"Kill it," Ji Wanshu said in a low voice, "A few worthless rats are not my opponents at all."

Lu Huaiwei breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to tell Ji Wanshu to leave this place quickly, but Ji Wanshu suddenly pressed the tip of his sword to her throat, and said coldly: "They want to kill you while I'm not around, and they want to kill you!" Mouth, tell me the truth, who are they!"

Lu Huaiwei's expression changed, and she asked in surprise, "Senior Sister?"

"Say it!" Ji Wanshu shouted, "I know that I have a bad temper and act impulsively, but I am by no means a stupid person. These people will not kill you for no reason, and based on what I know about you, you will There is no enemy, but they suddenly appeared on the way back to the palace between you and me, which can only prove that you lied to me in Yao Dingcheng before, that you are a spy in the palace, and they are here to prevent you from returning to the palace, right!"

Faced with Ji Wanshu's questioning, Lu Huaiwei's complexion turned pale in an instant, her lips trembled, she looked at Ji Wanshu helplessly and in fear, and tremblingly said: "You...you actually suspect that I am a spy in the palace for this reason? ? I... I don't know them at all!"

"There must be a reason for what happened," Ji Wanshu said in a deep voice, "We have stayed in Jincheng for many days without incident, and it seems that we are about to go to Shangyuan City, and at this time, a group of people came to treat you Start, do you take me for a fool? Have you lied to me!"

Lu Huaiwei staggered two steps, tears welled up in his eyes: "No, no, I don't know them, and I don't know why they want to attack me. Sister, trust me! I didn't lie to you!"

Ji Wanshu gritted his teeth, finally withdrew his sword, and said, "Huaiwei, I have been in the palace for many years. Apart from trusting my uncle, I only regard you as a good friend. If you lie to me, if you come from the Ziwei Sect Once the matter is found out, don't blame me for not remembering the old love. As a big disciple, I will definitely clean up the door. If you can tell the truth now, I can still plead with the head and uncle, and spare your life , so you'd better think clearly before answering."

Hearing her words, it was clear that she had already concluded that she was a spy, Lu Huaiwei couldn't argue with her words, and was disheartened.

"I really didn't lie to you, and I'm really not a spy," Lu Huaiwei burst into tears, "Senior Sister, you must believe me..."

Seeing her like this, Ji Wanshu couldn't help but feel a little shaken in her heart, but it's about a spy, she can't act emotionally, Ji Wanshu was silent for a moment, said "Sorry" in a low voice, and then quickly touched Lu Huaiwei's sleeping point.

She picked up the man and didn't even want the carriage, so she laid Lu Huaiwei horizontally on the horse's back and left immediately.
