Yangyue

In the deep dense forest, killing intent is everywhere.

A dozen or so figures passed by like a gust of wind, chasing a vague black shadow towards the woods, and the sound of swords and hidden weapons was endless.The figure being chased rolled his robes, and fell straight into the bushes to avoid a hidden weapon.

Unexpectedly, there was a clear lake hidden by the trees. The man didn't look for it for a while, and fell into the water, causing a sound of water.

Fang Wuzhu floated up from the surface of the water, and the shouts of people from the Huo Qiao sect could be heard faintly in the woods. He was already wounded, and blood seeped down the lake.

Fang Wuzhu turned around and wanted to leave the lake, but his fingers were suddenly caught in a piece of hair that was soft and slippery like fine seaweed.

Fang Wuzhu turned around, only to find that a naked man was leaning sideways on the rock, with wet hair hanging down, covering his face and most of his body. people in this mountain.

Fang Wuzhu only took a quick glance, and all he could see was a dazzlingly white skin. He slightly looked away, and freed his fingers that were entangled in the other's hair, and said, "Girl, I'm sorry. This place is not safe. , girl with icy skin and bones, it's better not to take a bath here."

After saying that, the noise in the woods gradually rose, Fang Wuzhu didn't stay any longer, he went ashore immediately, and disappeared within a few breaths.

The dozen or so people chasing after him came to the lake, but they didn't see Fang Wuzhu, so they split up to look for him.

"Where did Fang Wuzhu go?"

"Four people each in the east, west, north, and south, chase after them!"

After the group left, the person hiding behind the rocks by the lake slowly swam out.This person is not a girl as Fang Wuzhu said, but a boy who is only about 15 years old.

The young man looked at the direction where Fang Wuzhu left, with a sullen crimson color on his face. Few people knew about this lake, so it was inaccessible. He often came out of his master's Taoist temple to bathe here. Unexpectedly, he met such a group of people today. people.

Just now, the young man heard commotions in the woods from a long distance away, he didn't want to get involved in the grievances and fights in the martial arts, so he swam behind the stone and hid.Unexpectedly, a person was thrown directly into the water, and his hair was tied with his fingers.

He couldn't move for a while, so he could only turn his head to hide his face, but the man called out to her, and even teased her.

However, although he didn't see that person's appearance, he just seemed to have heard faintly that those people called that person, Fang Wuzhu?

From that day on, even if Xiao Yangyue hadn't gotten acquainted with Fang Wuzhu, who shared the martial arts autumn equally with Huo Qiao at that time, she already thought in her heart that this person was extremely dishonest.

After the beginning of winter, there were several heavy snowfalls in the capital.

The duckweed pavilion's investigation into the disappearance of Xiankunhou's son-in-law is going on in secret. Most of the people Xiao Yangyue placed in Xiankunhou's mansion are servants, and it is inconvenient to go in and out of the inner room of the Hou's mansion.

Therefore, the emperor ordered Henry Zhang to pick out a few good-looking maids from his mansion and send them to Hou's mansion.

Most of the girls who serve Xiao Yangyue personally in Xiao's mansion are not ordinary people, they all know the method of passing secret orders in the duckweed pavilion, and they are very loyal to Henry Zhangyue, so there are many available people.

There is no one in Hou Ye's backyard. At this time, the identity of a man is always no better than that of a woman.

After thinking about it again and again, Henry Zhang selected two outstanding maids from the maidservants who had been with her for many years, and sent them to the Hou Mansion.

When the two women were sent to Qi Zhu's mansion, the latter knew what was in his mind, so he naturally accepted all the orders, and directly stuffed them into the backyard.

That night, after having dinner, Qi Zhu was wandering in the garden of the mansion, and happened to be by a small fish pond, and saw one of the women that Henry Zhang sent today was bending over to feed the fish, with a light waist and a beautiful appearance. Bright and moving.

Qi Zhu secretly shook his head and smiled slowly, Henry Zhang sent such two beauties, and they looked more like him than him, it was really dumbfounding.

That being the case, he can't bear this title in vain.

Qi Zhu came to the door, called the woman, and asked her name.

The woman bowed to Qi Zhu: "The maid's name is Ji Yun."

Qi Zhu nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Okay, Jiyun, I want to go to the bamboo forest in the back garden to enjoy the night snow, so you can come too."

"Yes, Lord Hou."

Warm yellow lanterns are hung in the bamboo grove in the back garden of the Hou Mansion. The ground of the garden is covered with a layer of soft snow. In the pavilion for enjoying the snow, there is a circle of charcoal fire and thick blankets, which is very warm.

Today, Bai Yu led the order to deliver the letter to the person placed by Xiao Yangyue in the Hou Mansion. When he came, he happened to see Qi Zhu from a distance, carrying Ji Yun, drinking and chatting with her in the pavilion.

Not long after, Bai Yu saw that Master Hou seemed to be embracing that woman, and the two of them were half-dressed.The charcoal fire in the pavilion is burning hot, making you sweaty, even if you take off your clothes, it is not cold, and the scenery outside is so quiet and beautiful, if you really want to use the heaven and the earth as a table to do some happy things, it will be very interesting.

Bai Yu doesn't think Hou Ye really likes her, but as a man, Hou Ye must have some masculine temperament, otherwise he wouldn't always like to go to brothels, this is indeed what the emperor and the pavilion master originally had. the goal of.

Bai Yu lowered his head. He sat for too long, and his whole body was still a little cold. He jumped off the eaves and shook the snowflakes all over the floor.

Seeing that Bai Yu was no longer following him, Qi Zhu let go of the woman in his arms. She drank the wine he had drugged just now, and now she passed out and fell unconscious on the soft blanket.

Qi Zhu leaned down and whispered something in her ear. His voice was as far away as the sound of heaven, but as deep as a lonely whale in the sea. The sound of magic lingered in her ears, forming a beautiful dream.

After Ji Yun fell asleep, Qi Zhu took out the golden snake fetus from his bosom. He was not completely sure what he was going to do next, and he couldn't let others know.

Qi Yiyi clenched his fist, and suddenly injected an internal force into his palm. The snake fetus was shattered into four petals by this internal force. Qi Zhu left one of the petals and took the other three petals back into his pocket.

Ye Xue seemed to have started to fall again, and the surrounding was completely white. Qi Zhu stared at the quarter of the snake fetus in his hand, raised his head and took it into his mouth, and then used his internal force to melt it away in his body.

Gradually, Qi Zhu felt a burst of Qi rushing through his body, and the damaged meridians began to twist and tear. He snorted, and horrible black veins appeared faintly under his arms and chest, as if there was something Living things were about to burst out of his body.

Qi Zhu suppressed this evil internal force, and there was only endless pain all over his body as if he was in the bottom of a frozen lake, and his blood seemed to be frozen by this extremely cold air.

The golden snake fetus is born from the human body, like real gold cast in a raging fire, and relics born in ashes. It has been formed after decades of internal force refining. The internal force and true energy contained in it, as well as its own The effect of building meridians and breaking bones is exactly what Qi Zhu urgently needs to repair his own damaged meridians.

Ordinary snake fetuses tend to be hot in nature, but the internal force contained in this golden snake fetus is extremely cold.

Huo Qiao ordered You Jinlin to collect and give birth to so many snake fetuses, presumably in order to rebuild the bones that he shattered back then.

Qi Zhu must suffer the death penalty.

I don't know how long it has passed, the moment before Qi Zhu felt that his internal organs were about to burst, he opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of almost dark blood, which was mixed with some frozen meat that had been peeled off from the internal organs.

Qi Zhu spat out the petaled snake fetus with blood, and the snake fetus was surrounded by a wisp of black air, which seemed to have become a little smaller than when Qi Zhu had just swallowed it.

Qi Zhu gasped, it was really a risky move for him to use this thing, the power of the golden snake fetus is too strong, relying on him alone, he can only absorb such a small part at a time, if he is too impatient, or if he is controlled by internal force Not good, if you are not careful, you will self-destruct.

However, he has no reason not to.

Qi Zhu breathed slowly and calmly, and the black veins on his body gradually faded until they disappeared completely.

In fact, Bai Yu did not leave, but stood waiting under the courtyard wall of the bamboo forest in the back garden. After more than an hour, he saw Qi Zhutaxue coming out from the path.

Bai Yu immediately climbed up to the eaves and looked quietly, only to see two servants around Qi Zhu holding an umbrella and carrying the stove, Qi Zhu was holding Ji Yun in his arms, she was already asleep in Qi Zhu's coat.

After entering the gate of the courtyard, Qi Zhu handed Ji Yun over to other servants to settle down, and went straight back to his bedroom.

He came to the study room in the side hall of the dormitory, stood in front of the Baibao grid, took down the pastel porcelain pot on one of the grids, stretched out his hand and gently pushed the wooden board behind it, and the wooden board moved back a little, revealing the hidden grid underneath.

Qi Zhu took out a white jade porcelain vase from the hidden compartment, intending to put the remaining golden snake fetus hidden in his sleeve into it, but his hand stopped again.He thought for a moment, then put the snake fetus into his inner bag, put the white porcelain bottle back intact, and closed the secret compartment again.

In the duckweed pavilion official residence, Henry Zhang was sitting in her room, reading a book while lighting a lamp, with an Emei Xueya lamp in hand.

A figure came to the outside of the hall, Henry Zhang knew who it was, and only said "in", Bai Yu knocked on the door lightly, and walked in with a snowy air.

Xiao Yangyue raised her eyes to look at him, and asked lightly: "I only let you deliver letters to the Hou's Mansion, why have you been there for so long?"

Bai Yu: "This subordinate...sees that Master Hou is at home, so he followed him for a while."

"The shadow guards will do these things. You are the envoy of the guards, so you don't have to go in person."

Bai Yu was silent for a moment, and her voice was low: "Seeing that Master Hou likes Miss Jiyun very much, I thought maybe we could find an opportunity to communicate with her and let her inquire more about Master Hou."

The teacup in Xiao Yangyue's hand rippled slightly, he was silent for a while, his untied hair was hanging down, making it difficult for people to see his eyes, but his voice was so cold, it seemed colder than Usually, it is even bone-piercing: "Really?"

"……Yes."

"What did you see?"

"Master Hou was walking in the backyard, and I met Miss Jiyun feeding the fish by the pond, so Lord Hou asked her name." Bai Yu replied quietly, "Afterwards, Master Hou invited Miss Jiyun to the bamboo forest in the back garden. To enjoy the snow."

"and then?"

Bai Yu paused, and replied: "Master Hou was emotionally moved, and we had a good time with Miss Jiyun in the gazebo, so my subordinates waited outside the courtyard. Miss Jiyun had already fallen asleep when Master Hou came out, and I couldn't find a chance to be with her." Speak, and the subordinate will come back."

"In the gazebo?" Henry Zhang said coldly, "Master Hou is really in a good mood."

Bai Yu was silent, and after explaining some necessary things, he took the initiative to resign.

In the morning of the second day, after Qi Zhuchen got up, he saw Xi He, the eldest girl who was serving him, with a sullen expression on her face and a little impatience in her actions, so he asked her what happened.

Xi He pursed her lips, and finally couldn't help but said: "Master Hou, Housekeeper Lin has already settled that person named Ji Yun in the Luoxia Residence in the backyard, and even assigned two maids to serve her. Didn't she just come to serve her?" Well, now she's flying up the branches and turning into a phoenix! I don't think she's a fuel-efficient lamp. No one asked her to feed the fish yesterday, but she took the initiative to do the job herself, because she knew that you were going to go shopping, Lord Hou. In the garden, I deliberately stood by the fish pond to attract your attention! You even took her to the Baizhu Pavilion, it was freezing cold, you..."

Speaking of this, Xi He blushed, and could not continue, presumably everyone in the family knew about Qi Zhu having a good time with that woman in the snowy pavilion last night.

"Okay." Qi Zhu said with a helpless smile, "Butler Lin is afraid of neglecting her."

"Now all the servants in the mansion say that Master Hou is going to take her to be a concubine!" Xi He has followed Qi Zhu for many years, and she is in charge of the girls who serve in Qi Zhu's inner room. Because of this, the servant girl was very angry, and she was a little outspoken, "She is also worthy..."

Qi Zhu knew in his heart that the person was sent by Mrs. Xiao, and there might be the emperor's intentions in it. He couldn't treat her as an ordinary maid, but he didn't need to say this to the people in the mansion, and let the people in the mansion Think he likes her go for it.

Qi Zhu: "Okay, Xihe, don't talk too much."

Xi He had no choice but to shut up, with a dissatisfied and resentful expression on her face, she turned around and went about her own business.

Said that everyone will be there, and after Qi Zhu had lunch, the butler came to pass the news, saying that the master of the pavilion is here.

Lord Hou: Let me take the title of scumbag first.

Lord Hou likes to admire beauties, but there must be only one beauty that he likes~ Unexpectedly, they have met before, but it's a pity that Yangyue didn't see his face, otherwise Master Hou's vest would have been broken!

the day after:

Lord Hou: So you are that girl

Yang Yue: So you are the apprentice

Lord Hou:?
