Painter

The letter was sent by Yuan Li, and it was a complete statement of Bai Qian's plan in line with his duty.There was no concealment in Bai Qian's thoughts, and there was no such thing as "leaking secrets".

Tianshu just made up an excuse, seeing Jingxi sweeping away the previous depression and looking at him expectantly, he couldn't bear it anymore.Ye Ming blushed on the side, seeing Tianshu couldn't help but wink at himself, so he could only bite the bullet: "This is just Ah Li's reward, why don't we wait for a while and see what Mu Yueguan has to say?"

Jingxi shook her head: "No, you have to make plans early!"

Tian Shu rolled his eyes and threw the question back: "What are you going to do?"

Jingxi pondered for a moment: "Go on the road first, go directly to Guigu."

Ye Ming asked slightly worried: "Aren't you waiting for the official document from the Mu family?"

Jingxi's attitude is very firm: "You wait at the lotus wine. Tianshu, bring more people this time. Follow the official path, don't shy away."

It was rare that Tianshu didn't immediately lower his face to express his dissatisfaction, and when he restrained his playful thoughts, he also became nervous.

Ye Ming was still worried: "Should I ask some skilled people to help me in the dark?"

"No." Jingxi clutched Yuanli's letter. He had weighed it for a long time before making this decision, "All good skills are on the bright side. The mansion will work hard for you. If there is danger, remember It's important to save your life."

Ye Ming smiled sweetly, and with his slightly red cheeks, he had a gentleness that he had never seen before: "What can be the matter? You are out of the house, just take care of yourself."

Jingxi remained silent, Ye Ming suddenly remembered something, and asked seriously: "Tell me the truth, is the injury on your back healed?"

Ye Ming stared closely, Jingxi hesitated for a moment, and replied honestly: "It will be soon."

Ye Ming didn't know whether he should persuade him, so he sighed after a while: "Be careful yourself!"

Tianshu ordered people with good skills in the mansion, and the whole group did not hide it, so they went on the road in an upright manner.There are not many rumors in the territory of Hejiu, and as you go south and get closer to Guigu, you hear more and more rumors.

Jingxi held her teacup and said nothing, her face was the same, but she was actually listening carefully to the conversation of the people at the next table.It was just time to drink tea, and I heard three groups of people discussing Minglian back and forth. It seemed that the momentum had already grown.

Tianshu took a sip of tea and knew what Jingxi was thinking by looking at Jingxi's expression.Putting down the teacup and turning around, Tianshu struck up a conversation with the person at the next table, and the conversation was lively.At the end of the gossip, Tian Shu asked curiously: "Why do I feel that this road is not smooth? People look panicked!"

The merchant at the next table smacked his lips: "Didn't you hear about it, little brother?"

Tianshu pretended to be confused: "What did you hear?"

The merchant clicked "tsk" twice, and explained to him: "Ms. Mu's family was kidnapped by Ming Lian a few months ago, and the son-in-law of the Mu's family came to rescue her after a lot of effort. This time, the uncle will be brought to justice." I got angry, and the new and old grudges must be settled together. Then I issued a notice, and made an appointment in Guigu on the third day of the next month."

Tianshu suddenly realized, and nodded slowly: "So that's what happened!"

The merchant signaled that he hadn't finished speaking: "Originally, Minglian's subordinates committed crimes and set up secret workshops in order to plot rebellion. The emperor issued a hunting order. Ms. Mu's husband's family was a little more thoughtful, and they went to the emperor and invited the other three families to sit together. No, there are people everywhere along this road."

Jingxi paused when he raised his glass, Tianshu accepted his color, and continued to chat with the businessman: "No wonder! It's eighteen today, so Guigu is so lively now, isn't it?"

"That's not it!" After the merchant drank all the tea, Tianshu continued for him with great eyesight. The merchant smiled with satisfaction and continued, "Go to the emperor to issue an edict first, and those who can offer Minglian's head will be sealed." Guan Jiajue! Anyone with a little bit of ambition in Huai Yuan is rushing here!"

"Then everyone is here now?" Jingxi finally couldn't hold back, and asked herself.His complexion was not good, and his tone was not very kind, which attracted the merchant's frequent glances.Tian Shu hurriedly interrupted, a little embarrassed: "My two brothers rushed to Guigu to seek medical treatment. Who knew this would happen. Don't go into the city, there is no place to stay."

When the merchant heard that the two of them were ill, he shrank back immediately.Tian Shu interrupted him with a smile: "My brother-in-law's legs and feet are not good, and she heard that there is a famous doctor in Guigu who can cure her, so she came all the way here. Brother, what's the situation in the city?"

The merchant relaxed a little: "If you seek medical treatment, you should withdraw as soon as possible! Ever since the Minglian rebellion, Guigu is simply not a place for people to stay! Fanxi has a simple and honest folk style, and without the Mu family, there will be no chaos. .Where is Guigu? Can it be done without Minglian sitting in the town? Everyone has run away, and those who are left are fighting every day, and the number of people is getting smaller every day."

I asked for a long time and said a lot, but it was of no use at all.Yuan Li stated in the letter that Jing Xi knew much more than this uncle.

After the time when Mu Yueguan disappeared, Bai Qian had been depressed and said little.Then one day, Mu Yueguan disappeared again, but he disappeared for a long time during the day, and Bai Qian was terrified again.Afterwards, he couldn't fall asleep. After half a month, he called Yuanli and confessed that he didn't want to endure this suffering any more.

Bai Qian told Yuan Li that he wanted to get rid of Ming Lian.It doesn't matter the power of the Ming family, they want to kill Ming Lian first.

Before Yuan Li recovered his senses, Bai Qian asked a lot.Minglian's habits, Minglian's consistent style, Minglian's domineering heart.

All the information related to Minglian was integrated, and Bai Qian asked Yuanli: "After his goal of becoming an emperor is shattered, his goal will be transferred to other patriarchs, right?"

Yuan Li didn't know if Bai Qian's behavior was considered good, but instinctively he was a little afraid.The gentle Bai Qian was gone, leaving behind an almost paranoid lunatic.This kind of change is not upward, Yuanli worries that Bai Qian is actually not strong enough to bear it.

Bai Qian asked Yuan Li: "Then gather all the city lords together and let him kill him, will he appear?"

Yuan Li was silent, and asked after a while: "Tell me your plan."

There is no way to stop him, he has come to a dead end, unless the wall is broken, there is no way out.Then I can only help him, help him break down the wall, and help him find a way to move on.

"The light is in the dark, so let's fight in the light."

Yuan Li disagreed: "You also said that he was in the dark, how could he fight head-on. Minglian has always been vicious..."

"In Guigu." Bai Qian interrupted Yuan Li's words and added expressionlessly.

Guigu is Minglian's old den.In doing so, Yuan Li couldn't think of any other possibility except to put all his eggs in one basket and fight back at the last chance.

Yuan Li obeyed his arrangement, what he needed to do was to find a suitable reason to convince Mu Yueguan, and then convince the world.

These were all mentioned in the letter, word by word, Yuanli told Jingxi everything.Jingxi hid the letter in her bosom, as if she had put a fireball on her body, and her chest ached from the heat.

Jingxi raised her hand to touch her chest, and finally couldn't hold back her temper, and asked directly, "Has Ning Baiqian arrived yet?"

Hang Shang blinked, confused by the sudden turn of the question, and took a while to answer: "Who is Ning Baiqian?"

Tian Shu hurriedly explained with a smile: "The one in Mu's house, that one..."

The merchant slapped his forehead: "You mean Miss Mu's husband-in-law, the lame painter?"

These words reached Jingxi's ears, making him uncomfortable.Tianshu stopped him from below, signaling him not to be impulsive.

The merchant shook his head: "Not yet. I have been walking all the way, and I heard that he was ill on the way. Alas, what evil did the Mu family do, and it was so unlucky. Once the fire burned down, there was only one girl left. Miss, she even married a crippled sick child. Heavens have mercy..."

Before the words were finished, the merchant felt a chill on his neck and stopped his mouth.Looking sideways slightly, he couldn't help shouting: "Oh my god! You—"

There was a knife around his neck, with a cold light shining, and the other end was held in the hand of the cold-faced young man in black.

Tian Shu hurriedly stood in front of the merchant, and pushed the merchant aside with his backhand.Hang Shang fell to his knees and crawled to the side using both hands and feet.Crying for father and mother, I heard the icicles falling from the young man's words: "Keep your mouth shut! Get out!"

The merchant scrambled and ran out, and heard the lively young man behind him complaining: "Look at you, when you get angry with yourself, you blame others. Isn't Bai Qian just lame? Isn't he just a sick man now? He's not happy yet." Someone said... Don't stop! I'll shut up!"

The merchant ran outside the teahouse covered in dust, still shivering.That young man looked at himself horribly, as if looking at a dead object.

Someone bumped his shoulder and hurried to the teahouse.The nature of a businessman will never change, anyway, the lively young man will stop him, and he will not be hacked to death.The merchant muttered and stood still in front of the door, secretly listening to the people inside.He wants to see, this person doesn't wear brocade silk and jade ornaments, but which family comes from this expensive and cold temperament!

The one who bumped into him earlier looked like a guard, and when he saw the young man in black, he saluted immediately.The merchant couldn't hear what the man said, but he watched the young man in black and heard a few words, then immediately got up and ran out.The lively and kind-hearted young master also stood up, and called out from behind: "Jingxi!"

Jingxi!The head of the Dutch wine scene family!Hey, it's said that this character is a cold-faced god. It's a blessing that he didn't cut off his head just now.I still don't get involved, let's go.

But what did I say wrong?Why did the Patriarch of the Jing family suddenly get angry?The merchant didn't understand, shook his head and walked away dejectedly.

In the teahouse, Tianshu stopped in front of Jingxi: "Don't be impulsive!"

Jingxi gritted her teeth tightly, her canthus cracked.

Tianshu touched his nose and took a step back: "Well, I know it's hard for you not to be impulsive. Bai Qian is seriously ill and dying. It's really not good news. But! But! Don't move, there are buts!"

Tian Shu was forced by Jing Xi to take a few steps back, but he still blocked his way: "Don't you think it's strange? Just now the merchant also said that Bai Qian was sick and couldn't get up. Who is Bai Qian? Why is he so sick? , Do you know who you know or not?"

Jingxi turned around in a circle impatiently, threw out "I don't know", and still wanted to leave.

Tianshu took another two steps back, stretched out his hand to push him, but kept a distance from him: "Calm down! At this moment, any doubts can't be let go! Think about it, if you miss this opportunity, Minglian will continue to be happy , you suffer the most? It is obviously Bai Qian! Not to mention that he provoked this duel now, so I can’t explain it to everyone. What if Minglian bites us in turn? You have all legs and feet, and you can run if you say so. Minglian can't beat you if you don't run away. But Bai Qian can't! Besides, Bai Qian's painting skills are special, so you can't guarantee that Qi Minglian has the same thoughts as Dijun. Jingxi, you should think about it, one wrong step, one wrong step!"

Tian Shu said so much without stopping, because he was afraid that Jingxi would rush out if he got a free time.It can be delayed for a while, it is best to delay until he calms down!

After hearing Tianshu's words, Jingxi only retorted with one sentence: "The news came from Yuan Li."

Tian Shu had nothing to say, and sneered dryly: "Even if it's Ah Li...hehehe... maybe it's fake!"

"Yuan Li said that Bai Qian is seriously ill and dying." Jing Xi insisted.

"This way came over, did it go astray?"

Jingxi stared at Tianshu: "Don't stop me."

If not, I want to see this side of Bai Qian.Or, the last side.
