Chapter 189: Asking the Guilty Side

Duanmu Xiaoxian sat on a wooden wheelchair again, and was gently pushed out of the "snow tire plum bone" by Yingli. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the long street, the cold moon shines.

Xue Wa'er got up from Duanmu's lap, leaned her head on the woman's shoulder and looked back.

The big round eyes looked straight at the small building of Zhu Mei behind the wine shop...... It seems to be reluctant.

Duanmu felt its movements, and gently stroked its warm body with a slightly sideways head, looking lightly stunned.

The long street was long, the cold moon was hanging, and the person in the chair heard the ferret "cluck", and then looked back.

Different directions, the same blank and empty scene.

I sighed for some reason, silent, inexplicable, scattered in the night wind.

"Sir. Turning the corner of the long street, Yingli suddenly stopped: "The Yuanhuo lava lamp brought by Mr. has fallen, can you go back and get it with Yingli?"

Duanmu was stunned.

After a moment's pause, he said: "This lamp was originally the thing of the Mei Pavilion Lord......

It was late at night, and the long street was empty.

Looking back, I saw the lights shining brightly, dotted in the eaves and windows.

Yingli looked at the person in the chair and said in a straight voice: "Since Childe has lent the lava lamp to Mr. for seven years, this lamp will be Mr.'s property within seven years, and it should be taken and returned to Mr. After a pause, Yingli looked at the woman even more: "Sir, let's go back with Yingli and get it." ”

Duanmu looked stunned and didn't respond for a long time.

Unconsciously, he muttered. "Fourteen years. More than seven years...... Borrowing seven years ......" The hand on Xue Wa'er's back gradually slowed down, Duanmu Xiaoxian's eyebrows tingled slightly, and he whispered: "...... Why?"

"Because ......" Yingli's hand on the wooden wheelchair tightened.

"Master. ”

The white shadow galloped closer, the green clothes flowed in the wind, and the blue shadow fluttered. At the end of the long street, Yun Xiao and Lan Suwan called in unison.

Yingli looked up at the two people who were striding towards in a daze.

"Master, you came back a little late, Senior Sister was not at ease, so she ordered Xiaolan and Senior Brother to come out to pick you up. Lan Suwan said softly. After that, he called the woman in red: "Yingli." ”

"Yingli has seen Miss. The woman in red bowed her head.

Lan Suwan had worries between her eyebrows, and said softly: "Brother Mei's injury is okay, I want to visit Brother Mei, I don't know if it's convenient now?"

Yingli lowered her head: "Mr. Duanmu is no big deal, and it is convenient for Miss to explore." ”

Lan Suwan smiled lightly and looked down at the woman in the chair: "Master......"

The man in Tsing Yi approached and said, "Master and I will go back to the palace first, and the second senior sister and Yingli Protector will go." ”

Yingli glanced at the white wolf beside Yun Xiao's legs, let go of the wooden wheelchair, and took a step back. “…… In this way, the Yuanhuo lava lamp that Mr. Duanmu fell could be retrieved by the young lady. ”

The woman in the chair lowered her eyes and bowed her head slightly. "Xie Yingli protects the Dharma. ”

Yingli lowered her eyes when she heard this, and her voice was extremely soft: "Mr. is polite...... In this way, Mr. Duanmu asked and Yunxiao Gongzi to escort him back to the house, and Yingli took Miss to see Gongzi. ”

Duanmu sat quietly in the chair and bowed his head slightly.

The man in Tsing Yi stretched out his hand and pushed through the wooden wheelchair, signaled to Lan Suwan and Yingli, and walked away slowly.

Lan Suwan and Yingli stood in place and watched for a moment, then turned around and walked to the other side of the long street.

"My master has changed his clothes?"

Yingli said calmly: "Miss Hui, yes." Mr. accidentally wet his dress, and Yingli found Mrs. Maid's clothes before her death and changed them for Mr. ”

"That's right. Lan Suwan thought for a while and said, "It seems that when I was a child, I saw Aunt Mei pass through, and I thought it was very beautiful." Now it's on my master......" After a pause, she said, "I remembered that Master is also a beautiful woman. ”

Yingli chin: "Mr. Duanmu's eyebrows and eyes are plain, his temperament is dusty, and it is really difficult to feel his appearance when his body is not dyed with bright colors, but he feels alienated and difficult to approach." ”

Lan Suwan nodded softly when she heard this. "Master is used to passing away, and he never cares about the world's affairs...... Fortunately, there are still a few of our disciples on the side, and Fang Yu has a trace of popularity. ”

Yingli nodded silently when she heard this.

……

The people in Tsing Yi were silent all the way, and when they returned to the palace annex, they saw Ye Luye standing at the door waiting for them.

"I'll send Master back to my room. Ye Luye took the wooden wheelchair and pushed the woman to the inner courtyard of the annex.

Yun Xiao nodded, looked at the woman in the chair with her back to her, and gradually walked away.

His eyes flickered.

The hand holding the sword tightened tightly, and it took a long time to let go.

Then he went to the kitchen, and after a while, he stood at the door with a bowl and called out in a flat voice, "Master." ”

Ye Luye stepped forward to open the door, saw him bring ginger soup over, and turned sideways.

"Senior sister. ”

Ye Luye nodded: "Let's take it." ”

When the man in Tsing Yi entered, he saw the woman's long hair hanging down behind the chair, almost dragging it to the ground, sitting quietly in the chair, and contemplating herself.

"Master drank some ginger soup to get rid of the cold, I have been wet for a long time, and I am afraid of typhoid fever. ”

Duanmu stretched out his hand and took the bowl: "It's been a long time since I was a teacher, and I have worried you." ”

Ye Luye said: "Since the master knows, he should return early." ”

Duanmu drank the ginger soup and handed the bowl back to Yun Xiao. "Hmmm......"

Ye Luye silently walked back behind the woman, took the dry towel and continued to wipe the woman's long hair.

The man in Tsing Yi set the small bowl aside, cleaned his hands in the basin on one side, took a dry towel, stood behind the chair, and wiped the woman's long hair.

Ye Luye twisted his eyebrows slightly and said, "Why did Master change his dress?"

The woman in the chair was almost imperceptible for a moment, lingered for a while, and said, "...... Because of the wet clothes, the Yingli Dharma Protector found this one on his body and changed it with his teacher. ”

Ye Luye twisted his eyebrows even more: "Why did Master get his clothes wet?"

Duanmu Immortal's expression was even more sluggish, and he only said for a long time: "...... The miasma in the main body of the Mei Pavilion is eroded, and it is difficult to get rid of it, so the teacher uses cold and warm baths to remove the miasma for him, and accidentally wets his clothes during the process. ”

Ye Luye said again: "The cold bath and the hot bath should be Mei Shuying's place, why did she get the master's clothes wet?"

Duanmu Xiaoxian stopped talking.

"Master will change back into clothes tomorrow, and return this dress to Brother Mei." The man in Tsing Yi didn't stop between his fingers, and said coldly.

Duanmu Xiaoxian also bowed his head. "His mother's relics should be returned. ”

Ye Luye said coldly: "The white-clothed red plum has always been the impression left by the master of the Amazing Cloud Pavilion, Mei Shuying, on the rivers and lakes. The skirt on the master's body is as white as pure snow, embroidered with cinnabar and red plums, and the style is unique. It is too similar to what Mei Shuying wears on weekdays, if you wear it together and let people in the rivers and lakes see it, I am afraid that there will be a misunderstanding. ”

Duanmu Xiaoxian was stunned.

"Lu'er, let's find a change of clothes for Master. Ye Luye turned around and walked out.

The door was shut, and only the young man in Tsing Yi and the woman in the chair were left in the room.

The wick on the candlestick flickered, and the man in Tsing Yi suddenly said, "Master, why is the color of his lips as bright as blood-stained today?"

There was a moment of silence in the room.

The woman bowed her head slightly.

The man in Tsing Yi stood behind, and saw that the woman's ears were slightly dyed with a little powder.

Duanmu Xiaoxian Huo Ran turned his head and coughed.

Yun Xiao was stunned.

In the next moment, I heard the woman snort softly.

The man in Tsing Yi suddenly came back to his senses, only to realize that the woman's long hair was a little tighter on the dry towel in his hand.

Yun Xiao immediately let go, reached to the back of the woman's head and rubbed the root of the long hair that had just been straightened. "Does it still hurt?" Xiao Er was distracted......

Duanmu shook his head: "It's okay." ”

The man in Tsing Yi did not speak again, lowered his head and pursed his lips, and carefully wiped the woman's long hair inch by inch.

The woman in the chair seemed to feel that the air around the young man was a little colder. After a pause, he asked, "Why is Xiao Er distracted?"

Yun Xiao raised his eyes and glanced at the woman from behind, but did not speak.

Xue Wa'er stretched on the woman's lap, curled up her long tail again to cover her head, and then fell asleep.

The people in Tsing Yi also said indifferently: "I'm thinking about the master's entry into the palace tomorrow." ”

Duanmu Xiaoxian was quiet when he heard this, and raised his eyes to look into the distance. The eyebrows were slightly locked.

After a while, the woman said calmly: "In today's court, the left phase is a faction, and the right phase is a faction, and the general's mansion is sandwiched between them, holding a neutral posture. Master Wen has been imprisoned for a long time, and the left-wing faction must have been crushed by the right-sided, and its momentum is scattered, and it is difficult to compete with the right. ”

The people in Tsing Yi twisted their eyebrows when they heard this: "What is the reason for the emperor to invite Master over in such a situation?"

Duanmu said slowly: "The emperor has the heart to save Lord Wen. It's just that it's inconvenient to be openly biased, and to be unfair to people...... Let the teacher go, it should be in the hope that the teacher will admonish and resign in front of the courtiers, so as to alleviate the situation of the right faction and delay the army. ”

"What's the use of slowing down like this?"

Duanmu nodded: "Xiao Er is right, it is not a way to slow down again and again." ”

"Since Master wants to save people, why not clear the blame for Master Wen?"

Duanmu shook his head: "The imperial court decree is clear and the evidence is conclusive, and Lord Wen has admitted it before, this crime is difficult to wash. ”

The man in Tsing Yi thought for a moment and asked, "Why did this happen?"

Duanmu said: "The left and right ministers have been fighting for a long time, and this matter is ostensibly the head of the household department to the emperor, bringing conclusive evidence to ask Lord Wen for the crime, causing Lord Wen to be imprisoned. ”

"Actually, this household secretary must be the right minister?"

Duanmu jaw head.

Yun Xiao suddenly said, "Master, have you ever thought about it...... When you ask about sin, someone asks about it, and you are guilty. ”

There was a hint of comfort between Duanmu's eyebrows, and he nodded. "As a teacher, you are the same as you think. If you want to save Lord Wen, for the sake of today's plan, the only way to let the right faction retract the momentum of coercion, or even refer to the words of the book...... Otherwise, under the express order of the imperial court, Lord Wen's guilt will be difficult to remove. ”

"Isn't it inconvenient for the emperor to put pressure on the right minister's faction?"

Duanmu nodded again: "The left and right factions, the emperor needs to pretend not to know." So the court is safe. ”

"Master's admonition for Lord Wen as the Sect Master of Qingyun is still not enough to make the **** gather momentum and stop?"

Duanmu looked straight ahead, and his voice was worried: "For the teacher to inherit Qingyunjian, between the rivers and lakes and the temple, although the affairs of the court can be said to be one or two, but there is no momentum, not enough to form a potential pressure." After a pause, Duanmu continued: "Today's plan, one is to protect the left prime minister and the other faction, and the right minister and the other faction will take the initiative to withdraw the trip to participate in the original questioning. He sighed softly: "Otherwise, there is no other way." ”

Yun Xiao twisted his eyebrows when he heard this. After thinking about it, he asked: "Since the right minister has the intention to defeat the left minister's faction, it should be difficult to take the initiative to withdraw the act of questioning...... I wonder if the General's Mansion can be expected to say a thing or two?"

Duanmu was calm: "The current head of the General's Mansion has never interacted with the ministers, the right faction is not close, and the left faction is not close, and it has been the same for several years. ”

Yun Xiao's eyes were shining when he heard this: "Since he is the head of the General's Mansion, it should not be easy to avoid the situation in the court and not participate in the affairs of the court, and he will hold it for several years...... Does Master know this person?"

Duanmu said: "I haven't seen it, I only know its name, Wuya Zhiyun." ”
