Chapter 458: Gossip
"Madame, do you think it's easy to come to the Demon Realm? I finally took the opportunity to give the Ninth Master a birthday to come to the Demon Realm, so naturally I want to wander around and have a good time before going back. I can't go to other places, I must go to Yudongling, which is under the jurisdiction of Yu Zifang, maybe I can find a few decent treasures. Fang Shaoyun still has the demeanor of an idle cloud and a wild crane.
"Listening to Elder Fang's tone, could it be that he has some friendship with Yu Zifang?" asked Hong Ningxiang.
"It's not a friendship, it's just that Yu Zifang and Jiu Ye often do some transactions, and I have participated in it, so I am familiar with him. Fang Shaoyun stared at Hong Ningxiang with a mysterious expression, "By the way, did Yu Zifang tell you about Meiqiu? That's why you're so depressed, madam?"
"I'm depressed?" Hong Ningxiang's face changed slightly, and she thought she was hiding it well.
"Isn't it?" Fang Shaoyun touched his nose and glanced at the sky in the distance, "Madam, you see that the weather is so cold, and it is snowing heavily outside, but you are wandering in the garden, looking restless, and I am not blind, how can I not see that Madame has something on her mind? I am afraid that Yu Zifang will gossip with Madame and make Madame unhappy, so I specially came to remind Madame." β
Hong Ningxiang admitted that after hearing Yu Zifang say that Liu Qingming was going to get married, she had been depressed, she should have rushed to Tianhong City immediately, rushed to Liu Qingming's Zihua Palace, and asked him why he did that, but she thought of the advice of the ninth master, and she promised him not to act rashly for the time being, so as not to expose her identity, so she did not leave Yixian Village immediately.
She had been trying her best to keep her composure, but she didn't expect to show her flaws.
However, Fang Shaoyun's words were very strange, how could he think that what Yu Zifang told her was about Mei Qiu?
"Thank you Elder Fang for your kind reminder. Hong Ningxiang wanted to hear if Fang Shaoyun knew something about Mei Qiu, and deliberately replied ambiguously, "Yu Zifang did say something that made me unhappy, but I don't know if what he said was the same as what Elder Fang knew. β
"Don't take his word for it. Fang Shaoyun sighed with a headache, "I knew that guy didn't care about Mei Qiu at all on the surface, and he was still as kind to the Ninth Master as before, but this may not be the case in his heart." After all, Mei Qiu used to be the top killer under him, and he had served him, so it was impossible for him to have no feelings at all. And Mei Qiu is now the Ninth Master's person, no matter how generous Yu Zifang is, he is afraid that he will see Mei Qiu obey the orders of the Ninth Master like this, and he is afraid that he will have to respond a little. I'm worried that he will be dissatisfied with Jiu Ye because of Mei Qiu's matter, but he doesn't show it to Jiu Ye on his face, but takes this roundabout way and says something he shouldn't say behind his back, so that Madame will have a misunderstanding of Jiu Ye and affect the relationship between Madame and Jiu Ye. Looking at Mrs. like this, he must have added fuel and vinegar to say bad things about the ninth master. This guy is really not cleaned up, when I go to Yudongling, I will definitely teach him a lesson for the ninth master. β
"Elder Fang, don'tβin fact, Yu Zifang didn't say that much, not as seriously as you thought. Hong Ningxiang saw Fang Shaoyun's indignant look, only then did she realize that she shouldn't just take his words, Yu Zifang didn't mention Mei Qiu when he talked to her, it can be seen that Yu Zifang is not as unbearable as Fang Shaoyun said, if Yu Zifang was beaten by Fang Shaoyun because of his nonsense, the consequences would be serious, she hurriedly added, "If I hadn't listened to you, I wouldn't have known that Mei Qiu was his subordinate before." β
"Eh, Yu Zifang didn't tell you this?" Fang Shaoyun showed an incredulous expression, "That's strange." If Yu Zifang didn't say these things, then why did the lady have so much to worry about?"
"If Elder Fang really cares about me, and is afraid that I will misunderstand the Ninth Master, you might as well tell me, how did Mei Qiu become the Ninth Master's subordinate?" Hong Ningxiang skillfully changed the topic, lest he discover the flaws in Fang Cai's contradictory words.
"That has to start after the Ninth Master captured the Demon Sect back then......"
Fang Shaoyun breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that his wife was much calmer than he thought, but he made a fuss and said calmly, "At that time, Tingxi City could not be attacked for a long time, and the Ninth Master knew that Yu Zifang was strong in Yudongling, and his subordinates were like clouds, so he wanted to borrow a few of his people to use it, and the Ninth Master promised that as long as he helped him kill the Tingxi City Lord, he would protect Yudongling from the suppression of the Demon Sect." Yu Zifang agreed to this condition, and later sent five top killers, including Mei Qiu, to carry out the mission of assassinating the city lord of Tingxi.
"With the help of Mei Qiu and others, Tingxi City was captured, but the city lord was very cunning and actually took advantage of the loophole and held Mei Qiu hostage. The city lord of Tingxi took Mei Qiu to a mountain forest outside the city to hide, and wanted to find out the person behind the assassination of Mei Qiu, so he released the news that Mei Qiu was arrested, who expected that Yu Zifang knew the news, and somehow did not go to save Mei Qiu, and finally the ninth master personally rushed over, killed the city lord, and also rescued Mei Qiu. It was from that incident that Mei Qiu refused to return to Yudongling, severed relations with Yu Zifang, had to follow the Ninth Master, and asked for an order to take charge of Tingxi City for the Ninth Master. β
Hong Ningxiang frowned, "Yu Zifang just let Mei Qiu go?"
Fang Shaoyun snorted: "At that time, everyone could see that Mei Qiu was already an abandoned son of Yu Zifang, he didn't know how to cherish it, didn't he allow others to pay attention to it? Even if Yu Zifang didn't agree? Mei Qiu was determined to recognize the Ninth Master as the new master." β
"No wonder Mei Qiu is so desperate for the Ninth Master, the Ninth Master not only treats her as a life-saving kindness, but also takes her away from Yu Zifang's ruthless old master, which is equivalent to gaining freedom and new life. Hong Ningxiang suddenly understood what Mei Qiu said that day. Mei Qiu is a killer, and for a killer who licks blood from the knife, having a warm home is probably more tempting than anything in the world.
Fang Shaoyun nodded, and he had the meaning of saying this, "So, no matter what others say about Mei Qiu's gossip, Madame must not be careful, and she must believe in the Ninth Master." How to say that Jiu Ye and I are close friends, and I think I know him better than ordinary friends. β
Hong Ningxiang already didn't have the heart to think about Mei Qiu, even if Fang Shaoyun didn't explain it to Shi Dingfeng, she wouldn't be too entangled in emotional matters like she did in her previous life. After hearing this, I was a little relieved.
After Shi Dingfeng finished sending off the guests and came back, her irritable mood had returned to calm.
After the two went to bed together, Hong Ningxiang wanted to probe Shi Dingfeng's tone and ask him when he would go to Rainbow City.
"I'm in such a hurry to go to Rainbow City, did you hear any news?!" Shi Dingfeng was so shrewd, this woman thought that if she didn't mention Liu Qingming, he couldn't guess what she was thinking.
"You...... Do you know that too?" asked Hong Ningxiang tentatively.
"When I came back, I chatted with Yu Zifang for a while. He said that if I wanted to attack the Demon Sect again, he would help me, and he also reminded me that now the Liu family and the Xu family are busy getting married, if we can stop this marriage, it will definitely cause the relationship between the two families to collapse, so that the internal strife in the Demon Sect will worsen, and we can take the opportunity to start. Shi Dingfeng reached out and twisted the hair on her sideburns, "But even if he doesn't say anything about that bastard, with my intelligence network, it won't be difficult to find out this news." β
"Then will you still attack the Demon Sect?" Hong Ningxiang was shocked, Shi Dingfeng gave up the sect master order because of her, and she didn't know if he was unwilling in his heart.
