"So, is there anything else you need to explain? Mr. Xuanyi. In the black flames, the woman smiled. Xuanyi Wujian subconsciously avoided her gaze, and stared at the letter in her hand, and then told him repeatedly: "This letter, please ask Sect Chief Yin, be sure to deliver it to the hands of Ao Chun, the lord of the Xia Kingdom." ”

Yin Ci was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Mr. Xuanyi, is this worried, is Ao Chun, the lord of the Xia country, unwilling to agree to the request made in this letter, or is it ......?"

The woman doesn't say it thoroughly, she always says half of it, keeps half of it, and leaves the other half for others to guess, and takes pleasure in it. That's why Xuanyi Wujian is so unkind to see her, and he doesn't even want to have anything to do with her.

After adjusting his emotions slightly, Xuanyi Wujian bowed his hand to the patriarch of the Black Heaven Sect's "Charm" Sect and said respectfully: "Now, Sect Leader Yin Porcelain is the national teacher of the Xia Kingdom. If you were to say a few kind words for me in front of Ao Chun, the lord of the Xia Kingdom, I think Ao Chun would pay more attention to the relevant requests mentioned in this letter. ”

Between the words, Yin Ci slowly picked up the letter in his hand and took a cursory look. At the end of the black flame, Xuanyi Wujian waited quietly with a smile, and when Yin Ci's eyes touched the request conveyed by Xuanyi Wujian through a thousand feathers of smoke and clouds on the letter, Yin Ci raised his eyes suspiciously and looked at Xuanyi Wujian: "Sir, this is going to survive with a broken tail?"

Xuanyi is innocent: "There is no other way. ”

Yin Ci smiled: "You are going to sacrifice the small self and achieve the big self! Actually, Mr. doesn't know anything." Long before the invasion of the Xiji Thousand Thunder Kingdom, Ao Chun had already sent an army to the vicinity of Mingyue City. ”

Xuanyi Wujian said suspiciously: "What Sect Chief Yin said, but the second son of Ao Chun, the lord of the Xia Kingdom, the blood tiger cavalry led by Ao Ye who went to the Shu Kingdom to welcome his relatives?"

Yin Ci shook his head with a smile: "What Mr. said is from before. And what I'm talking about now is just a short time ago. ”

Xuanyi Wujian asked curiously: "What kind of army is this, why did the Imam suddenly mention this matter at this time?"

Yin Ci asked rhetorically, "Sir, have you heard of the ghost tiger riding?"

Xuanyi Wujian frowned: "I haven't heard of it." ”

Yin Ci smiled slightly: "This is the latest masterpiece of our Holy Sect, specially designed to deal with the six thousand armor Chiyan warriors who are now entrenched in Bright Moon City. ”

Xuanyi Wujian was puzzled: "According to what you mean, now Ao Chun has cooperated with our Black Heaven Sect?"

Yin Ci smiled slightly: "Yes and no." ”

Xuanyi Wujian was puzzled: "How do you say this?"

Yin Ci explained: "In Ao Chun's eyes, I am just a mystic master who is proficient in all kinds of thaumaturgy. In fact, he doesn't know my true identity, but is the Imam of the Black Sky Sect. In the eyes of outsiders, this is just a lord of the country, who has been guided by a powerful mystic, and has since led a country to become strong, but in fact, our strength has also slowly infiltrated the Xia country in this process. ”

Xuanyi Wujian looked at the woman in front of him in surprise, and didn't know what to say for a while, but he heard the woman continue: "I understand that Mr. seems to be trying to survive by breaking his tail to save the face of the Mexican Kingdom in Dongji, as well as the lives of those Mexican soldiers stationed in Jibei, and then preserve the strength of the Mexican State." But in fact, I actually want Xia Guo and Shu Guo to compete for power in Jibei because of Yaoguang and Liuyun. ”

Xuanyi is innocent: "As far as I know, the Xia Kingdom has coveted the territory of the country for a long time and has been waiting for the right opportunity. Now that the Mexican Kingdom has gone in the north of Jibei, it is better to send Xia Guo a favor. ”

Yin Ci asked, "Sir, do you think Ao Chun will take it?"

Xuanyi is innocent: "Why does Sect Chief Yin ask that?"

Yin Ci: "Twenty-one years ago, if there was no help from the Shu country, Xia and Han would have been razed to the ground by the Chiyan warriors. Such kindness can be compared to reconstruction. Mr. is not worried that the two cities of Yaoguang and Liuyun will be given to Xia Guo when the time comes, and as a result, Xia Guo will give them to Shu Guo to be a favor?"

Xuanyi asked with a smile: "If the Xia Kingdom really intends to help the Shu Kingdom, why not when the Mo Kingdom invades the Shu Kingdom, but when the last city of the Shu Kingdom is about to die?

Yin Ci explained: "Ao Chun doesn't want to offend the Mexican country. ”

Xuanyi is innocent: "Ao Chun is just waiting." ”

Yin Ci was puzzled: "What is he waiting for?"

Xuanyi Wuji: "Wait for a suitable opportunity." ”

Yin Ci: "And then?"

Xuanyi is innocent: "Then, shame before the snow!"

Yin Ci was silent for a moment, and then asked, "How do you say this? Could it be that there is a grievance between the Xia Kingdom and the Shu Kingdom that I don't know?"

Xuanyi Wujian smiled: "I have to ask Yun Fan about this." ”

Hearing this, Yin Ci understood: "What does Mr. mean is that Ao Chun's target is not the Shu Kingdom, but those Chiyan warriors?"

Xuanyi is innocent: "Yes! This is the guilt of Huaibi!"

Yin Ci frowned: "In other words, Mr. intends to convey the news of cooperation to Ao Chun by offering Liuyun and Yaoguang City, right?"

"Exactly. Xuanyi Wujian sneered and continued, "What Xia Guo wants is just those Chiyan warriors. This coincides with the Holy Religion. If Ao Chun insisted on asking Yun Fan or Shu Guo to ask for these Chiyan warriors, Yun Fan would definitely rise up and resist. ”

Yin Ci understood: "These Chiyan warriors are the greatest possibility for Yun Fan to regain the lost territory of the Shuguo. There was no way he could give up. For him, the kingdom of heaven is like a pack of wolves, and this Chiyan warrior has now become his sword armor, protecting the last territory of the kingdom in Jibei, Mingyue City. ”

"And what I want is the death of the kingdom and the death of Yun Fan, as for the Thousand Feather Yanyun, what she is most worried about now is the sister who is in Bright Moon City," Xuanyi Wujian sneered and continued, "So, whether it is the Holy Sect or the Xia Kingdom, or the Mo Kingdom, or the Thousand Feather Yanyun, our purpose is the same." ”

Yin Ci listened to it and fell into deep thought.

But he heard Xuanyi Wujian continue: "Therefore, as long as Sect Chief Yin successfully delivers this letter to Ao Chun, as long as he is not stupid, he will definitely be able to understand the benefits and losses. As for the "Chiyan Rebellion", the kindness given by the Shu State to the Xia State was repaid as early as when the Mexican State was besieging the city, and the Xia State broke the siege with a marriage strategy. Now this game has begun to stand again. If Ao Chun agreed, he would repel the Xiji Thousand Thunder Kingdom, and the two cities of Yaoguang and Liuyun would be divided into the territory of the Xia Kingdom. At that time, Ao Chun will gain fame and fortune, why not?"

Yin Ci: "What if Yun Fan asks him for it during the period?"

Xuanyi is innocent: "And let Ao Chun ask Yun Fan to hand over those Chiyan warriors, and then it's not too late to talk about this." ”

Yin Ci: "It's impossible for Yun Fan to hand over these warriors." ”

Xuanyi is innocent: "If he dares to make friends, the army of the Mexican Kingdom will set foot on the land of Jibei again." Without these Chiyan warriors, Yun Fan would not be able to hold the huge kingdom of Shu. ”

Yin Porcelain: "If he doesn't hand it over, the Xia Kingdom will completely seal the Shu Kingdom, and the only way out for the Shu Kingdom is to face the Gulong Pass facing the north, and call the barbarians in the Northern Desert brothers." ”

Xuanyi is innocent: "At the right time, the entire Shu Kingdom will fall into a huge encirclement, which is incompatible with the Dongji countries. ”

Yin Ci: "Then, Mr. only needs to wait for the right opportunity to label the Shu Kingdom as a betrayal of the Chinese people, so that the kingdoms of the world can rise up and attack him?"

Xuanyi is innocent: "And the premise of all this depends on Ao Chun's attitude, what it is." And what he will do. ”

Between the words, Yin Ci's eyes suddenly became sad: "There are no eternal friends, and there are no eternal enemies. ”

Xuanyi Wujian reminded: "Everything is based on the Holy Sect. ”

Hearing this, Yin Ci sneered.

I thought to myself, "You are unsullied, as the humerus of the Blood-Coated Elders, but you only care about the interests of the Mexican Kingdom, and you still want to talk about the interests of the Black Heaven Sect at this time?

After a moment of silence, Yin Ci, who was already a little sleepy, turned to ask, "So does Mr. Xuanyi have anything else?"

Xuanyi said lightly: "That's all." ”

Yin Ci lifted her forehead hair, and said a little tiredly: "Then let's do this first, and then if there is anything else, then contact us." ”

Xuanyi handed over his hand: "Wait for the good news." ”

But as soon as Xuanyi's words fell, the burning purple-black lotus base on the table, with twelve blue characters, began to dim one by one after the black flame was extinguished. The surrounding "time stream" gradually regained its original speed during this period.

When the last character is bleak.

The dust settled, and the candles on the table burned out.

And then the darkness that was sealed was darkness. Xuanyi stood silently in the dark, quietly listening to the sound of his heartbeat, and then grinned.

......

Dongji Shuguo, Mingyue City, late at night.

Qianyu Fenghua looked at the flying snow outside the window, not knowing what to think. Not long ago, Lu You had just been arrested, and out of caution, she hadn't gone out for several days.

But seeing that at this time, Duan Nian slowly pushed open the door and brought delicious food. Since coming to Mingyue City, Qianyu Fenghua's food, clothing, housing and transportation are basically in charge of Duan Nian.

In such a city that is extremely unfamiliar to Duan Nian. Duan Nian, who came from the south, instinctively watched out for everything. Except, of course, for the Thousand Feathers. Before the delicacies on the plate were brought in, Duan Nian had tried them for Qianyu Fenghua first, and they were not poisonous.

Between the flickering candles, the man who didn't talk much put down his meal. Then silently turned away. His steps were light. If it weren't for the moment when the doors and windows were opened at the same time, causing the cold wind to flow, Qianyu Fenghua would definitely not have realized that Duan Nian was coming.

Qianyu Fenghua is just a female streamer, and Duan Nianke is a martial artist who has experienced a hundred battles. Therefore, Duan Nian could easily be silent, but if Qianyu Fenghua wanted to detect him, it might not be a very easy thing.

In the blink of an eye, he looked at the back of Duan Nian quietly leaving. Qianyu Fenghua was suddenly a little reluctant, so he stopped him: "Recently, something important has happened in the city. Why is it that the city is full of snow a few days ago, but people have taken to the streets and cheered. ”

Duan Nian stopped and turned around.

He first bowed and waved his hands, and then recalled with Qianyu Fenghua: "Back to the master, about ten days ago. Xiji Qianlei Kingdom entered the country and sent a hundred horsemen to engage in a fierce battle with the army of the Shu Kingdom outside Mingyue City. It is said that the prince of the Thousand Thunder Kingdom was also captured by the Frost Sword in the process. ”

While thinking about it, Qianyu Fenghua's eyes fell on the window.

But in the wind and snow, a familiar face was stepping on the night and the snow, and his steps were hurried without hesitation. Maybe it was too cold at night, or maybe she was worried that someone would hear what she and Duan Nian were going to talk about next. Thousand Feathers Kaede slowly closed the window, as a result. At this moment, Meng Jian subconsciously raised his eyes to look at Qianyu Fenghua's residence, and it turned out that Qianyu Fenghua also happened to meet at this time.

After staring at each other for a moment, Meng Jian, who originally planned to go back to the restaurant, decided to stand outside the restaurant and stop for a moment. The snow is still falling, and it hasn't stopped. The wind that comes from time to time makes people shiver. Qianyu Fenghua smiled slightly, and then nodded lightly to say hello, Meng Jian's face was slightly red, and he bowed and waved his hands in the snow.

Unexpectedly, this scene happened to be seen by the shopkeeper He who was just about to close, so he urged Meng Jian not to come in again, I am afraid that he can only spend the night in the wind and snow. Of course, Shopkeeper He was just joking with Meng Jian. It wasn't really possible to shut him out.

As for Qianyu Fenghua, he slowly closed the window door during this period, and continued with Duan Nian: "Did the Chiyan warriors participate in that battle?"

Duan Nian said respectfully: "In the past few days, I have heard the passers-by in the restaurant talk about the frost sword, the Sabu Shuofeng Iron Horse, the Chiyan Samurai and the Mingguang Armor all participated in the battle that night. ”

Thousand Feather Kaede: "Sounds like the battle is quite fierce?"

Duan Nian pondered: "In that battle, if the Mingguang Armor, the Sabe Iron Cavalry, and the Chiyan Warriors did not participate in the battle, I am afraid that the Frost Sword that went at that time would have to be wiped out." ”

Qianyu Fenghua: "In other words, because of the addition of Mingguang Armor, Sabe Iron Cavalry, and Chiyan Samurai, the battle situation ended up being one-sided, right?"

Duan Nian: "Exactly. ”

Qianyu Fenghua pondered: "Then do you know how many troops they invested in this battle?" ”

Duan Nian said embarrassedly: "I really don't know about this. ”

Qianyu Fenghua sighed: "I thought that the information you had was very complete. But that's okay, I'll figure out the rest. ”

Duan Nian raised his eyes and looked at Qianyu Fenghua suspiciously, but saw Qianyu Fenghua roll up his long sleeves, and then slowly sat down at the table. The slender and white hands, when picking up the dishes and chopsticks, are elegant and noble. Ling Duan Nian was a little distracted for a while.

After a moment of hesitation, Duan Nian realized that he was not suitable to stand here, so he bowed and waved his hand: "If the master has nothing else to do, the servant will retire for the time being, and he will not disturb the master here and enjoy the delicious food of this table." ”

But I saw Qianyu Fenghua slowly raise his eyes, and whispered: "This time has been hard for you." Don't rush to leave, I still have some things to ask you. ”

As she spoke, the elegant woman motioned for Duan Nian to sit down and have dinner with her. As a result, he saw Duan Nian's face panicked: "Master, this is not appropriate, Duan Nian is from a humble background, how can he sit at the same table with his master." ”

Seeing that Duan Nian was so restrained, Qianyu Fenghua rolled up his sleeves and got up, pulled him to sit in his place, and personally served him vegetables. Since there was only one pair of chopsticks, Qianyu Fenghua gave up his chopsticks to Duan Nian, and was so frightened that Duan Nian practiced and shirked: "Master, you can't do it, you can't do it!"

At this time, he saw Qianyu Fenghua slowly detouring behind Duan Nian and put a hand on his shoulder. The refreshing fragrance ran down the woman's sleeves and lingered in Duan Nian's nose. Duan Nian, who was originally a little flustered, immediately quieted down, not knowing what to say.

Qianyu Fenghua smiled, didn't say anything, and instead sat down opposite Duan Nian. For Duan Nian at this moment, she is like a gust of wind, a summer breeze in winter, making it impossible to figure out what she is thinking, or what she plans to do next.

In silence, Qianyu Fenghua once again signaled Duan Nian to enjoy the delicious food at this table and not waste it. After repeatedly shirking, Duan Nian finally compromised, and gradually understood what it meant to be gracious.

So, he blushed and was very embarrassed to start eating in front of Qianyu Fenghua. On weekdays, in order to be in a hurry, Duan Nian basically gobbles up food. But today, he eats like a "young lady of the family" who is "waiting for the word boudoir".

In fact, Qianyu Fenghua did this without other meanings. It's just that she feels that during this period of time in Mingyue City, for the sake of prudence, many things need to be handled by Duan Nian for her, so just thinking about it feels like a bad treat for this servant who has been following her, so Qianyu Fenghua plans to treat him to a good meal.

After all, there are many things that need his help in the future. After thinking about it, Qianyu Fenghua slowly spoke: "In the future, what I eat, what you eat." ”

Duan Nian, who was eating, heard this, and burst into tears for a while, he wanted to say something, but he heard Qianyu Fenghua add: "I have made up my mind." ”

Between the flickering candles, Qianyu Fenghua didn't give Duan Nian a chance to refuse her, and took advantage of the moment when Duan Nian was moved and silent, and continued: "Let's continue to talk about what we haven't said before. I just heard you mention that the captured prince of the Thousand Thunder Kingdom, according to his level, he should be locked up in the "ice prison" of the Guang Yuan at the moment, right? ”

Duan Nian nodded and said, "It is said that this prince of the Thousand Thunder Kingdom has not come out since he entered the Guangqi Courtyard, and it seems that it should be as the master guessed." ”

Qianyu Fenghua pondered: "Is there any movement on Lu You's side recently?" I heard that his son Lu Ming seems to have run away when he was arrested, and his life and death are still uncertain. ”

"I heard that Lu Ming is dead. Duan Nian responded, "And it seems that he is still starving to death." ”

Qianyu Fenghua frowned: "Where did you get this news?" ”

Duan Nian: "I heard it from the frost swords who often eat here, but I don't know how much authenticity there is. ”

Qianyu Fenghua: "If that's the case, it's a matter of heart." ”

Duan Nian said worriedly: "By the way, now that Lu You has been arrested, the master is not worried about Lu You in order to survive." A bite back at the end?"

Qianyu Fenghua smiled: "Lu You knows too many things. There are too many people in this city who are faster than we want to get rid of him, but we haven't been able to find the right opportunity. Now, here's your chance. What he knew, the secret of our Thousand Feather Clan, would certainly not be told to those who tortured him. Those past events, except for Yun Ji, only Yun Fan is qualified to know. However, I don't think that the current Lu You can live until the day when he sees these two again, although now that Yun Fan has returned, he will have more important things to be busy with next. And Yun Ji also has troubles to deal with. ”

Duan Nian pondered: "So what is the next step, what is the master going to do? Is there anything Duan Nian can do to help the master?"

At this time, there was the sound of Meng Jian's footsteps passing by outside the door.

Qianyu Fenghua smiled slightly, and only said, "Wait." ”
