Chapter 229: Strategy

On the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, a caravan of more than 100 people came from outside Chang'an City, bringing fine mink skins and rare gems and spices. In fact, they should have arrived in Chang'an half a month ago, but this winter's snow was heavy and urgent, and the road was not easy to walk, so they were delayed for a while, but they arrived before the year, and the goods in their hands should still be able to be sold in the last few days.

At noon, the team leader stopped and said: "It's ten miles away from Chang'an City, the big guy has a rest here, eat something, and leave in half an hour, we can enter the city before dark!" ”

As soon as I heard that, I arrived in Chang'an City, and the caravan was already tired, and the atmosphere became lively. As soon as the leader's words fell, the caravan people all stopped in place, tied up the carriages and horses, and then took out food and drink, and gathered in groups to rest and chat.

There were also people who only stayed in the carriage and could not come out, most of them were not caravan people, but women and children who followed the caravan. At this time, if there are people who go far away, but those who are willing to give up the silver, they will ask a few dart masters to follow all the way, and those who can't afford to hire a dart master, and take care of safety, they will inquire if there is a caravan with a good reputation and just on the way, and ask the team leader to discuss it, spend a few dollars, so that you can follow the caravan together, and there can be a lot of care on the road.

Stopped in the middle of the caravan, in a simple carriage, an inconspicuous woman took out dry rations, and the coachman said outside: "Girl, someone is looking for you." ”

Cui Feifei glanced at the woman, the woman quietly put down the basket in her hand, pushed the window and looked out, exchanged a few words with the people outside, and then turned around: "Girl, it's your seventh aunt, it is said that she went out with your uncle to visit friends two days ago, and now she is back in the city, it just so happens that your uncle knows the team leader, chatted a few words, and I don't want to hear that you are here." ”

The woman's voice was neither loud nor small, and through the window of the carriage, the people who were outside the carriage could hear a few words.

Cui Feifei was slightly stunned: "Tang Qigu? ”

She does have a seventh aunt, but she got married twenty years ago, and she has the impression that she has seen it once, and that side has been more than ten years now, and she doesn't even remember what the other party looks like. The reason why she left an impression was because she heard her mother say when she was a child that when her aunt was in the Cui family, she could talk to her seventh aunt for a few words, and her aunt didn't like to deal with other people.

And three days ago, she received a letter from Hua Rong, which said that before she entered Chang'an City, she would ask someone to send her something and let her bring it into the Changxiang Palace, and emphasized that this matter was related to the survival of thousands of people in the Changxiang Palace, and asked her to be cautious and hide her whereabouts.

Cui Feifei has been faintly uneasy in his heart for this, it is related to the survival of thousands of people in the Changxiang Palace? She didn't know if Hua Rong was deliberately making the matter serious, or if the situation in Chang'an had indeed deteriorated to such a point! What could be the thing that Hua Rong asked her to bring into the Changxiang Palace, and it was really so important?

And now that he is about to enter Chang'an City, he has not seen any news of Huarong, but he suddenly met Aunt Qitang here, is it a coincidence? Or is this Tang Qigu the one who sent things as Hua Rong said?

So Cui Feifei asked in a low voice: "Is it Huarong?" ”

The woman nodded slightly, then got up and got out of the car.

Cui Feifei was very surprised in her heart, in her impression, as well as her mother's oral statement, her seventh aunt was the one who didn't like to get involved in such troubles, and fortunately the seventh aunt married well back then, and her husband was willing to support her, so over the years, the affairs of the Cui family, whether good or bad, her seventh aunt was not touched.

But now, the criminal court can invite her seven cousins!

However, surprised and surprised, Cui Feifei immediately spoke: "Please!" ”

"I really didn't expect to meet the four girls of my family here." Cui Feifei's words fell, and a slightly hearty and smiling voice came from outside, Cui Feifei was the fourth among her peers, and when she was young, her elders also called her the fourth girl.

The curtain was lifted, and a woman with a white face and bright eyebrows stepped into the car.

Cui Feifei got up slightly: "Aunt Qitang." ”

Although I don't remember what the other party looks like, as soon as I see that face at this time, the face in the depths of my memory immediately comes to mind.

"The four girls are all so good." After Cui Wenshuang entered the carriage, she looked at Cui Feifei and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for so many years, it's hard for the fourth girl to remember me." ”

Cui Feifei couldn't help but be slightly stunned after seeing Cui Wenshuang clearly, Cui Wenshuang's eyebrows and eyes were a little similar to Cui Wenjun.

Cui Feifei stretched out his hand to help her sit beside him: "It's been many years, you are in good health, look at your complexion is very good." ”

"It's good." After Cui Wenshuang sat down, she took out a small bag of things from her sleeve, put them directly in Cui Feifei's arms, and said in a low voice, "I don't know how much it cost to send this thing to me, and the four girls can put it away." ”

"It's ...... No fragrant flowers!? Cui Feifei glanced at the package in his arms, did not open it, but just checked it with his hand.

Cui Wenshuang raised her eyebrows slightly: "It's really a great incense master, this package is tightly packed, and it doesn't smell at all, you smell it?!" ”

Cui Feifei smiled, but did not answer the question, but continued to ask: "This is sent by Huarong?" Why send this? ”

Cui Wenshuang seemed to be in a hurry, first lifted the corner of the curtain and glanced out, and then said: "This matter is not so much Hua Rong's arrangement, but the chess game set up by Mr. An, of course, thanks to Hua Rong's ability, he was able to borrow the power of our Cui family in such a short time." As for why this thing was given to you, the fourth girl should know what the main function of the unscented flower is. ”

Cui Feifei paused, then his eyes changed slightly, and he couldn't help but sit up straight: "White mosquito!" ”

Her incense world is a fantasy forest, and her forest contains all the flowers, plants, birds, and beasts she knows, so she knows better than anyone the role of unfragrant flowers, as well as the evil and terrible evil of white mosquitoes.

Could it be that the people of Xianggu in southern Xinjiang actually sent white mosquitoes into the Changxiang Palace? !

"This thing is related to the survival of thousands of people in the Changxiang Palace."

Cui Feifei remembered the words passed by Hua Rong again, and suddenly felt a chill on his body.

Xianggu in southern Xinjiang dared to !!

Cui Wenshuang glanced at her, and said: "There is one more thing to tell you, listen, Situ Jing may not believe that you will obediently return to Qinghe to get married, so during this time, he has been letting people stay outside Chang'an City, he should be looking for you, and I heard that he even asked people to bring out the Xiangxiang Gu today, I am afraid that I also guessed that if you go back to Chang'an, you will definitely have no fragrant flowers on your body." ”

Cui Feifei's face was solemn, and there was a faint anger in his eyes: "Now that I have arrived in Chang'an, even if he sees me, he can stop me from returning to the Xiangdian!" ”

Cui Feifei has always been gentle and dignified in front of outsiders, and it is rare that such anger is unexpected, which makes her whole person look like a sword about to be unsheathed, this is the pride and sharpness of the great incense master.

Cui Wenshuang saw Cui Feifei at this moment, as if she saw Cui Wenjun back then, and her eyes couldn't help but show a little relief and amazement.

"You just came back, and you still see the situation in the temple." Cui Wenshuang's voice was a little softer than just now, "The white mosquito has been sent to the Changxiang Hall by him, and the Yuheng Hall has not been spared, in addition, there are still a lot of people in the Xiangdian who he arranged." Although there are still Mr. Liu and the criminal court in the incense hall, if Situ Jing really does it in advance, you are not in the incense hall, and the casualties in the incense hall are immeasurable! ”

Cui Feifei said with a serious face: "If he starts in advance, then the challenge covenant he made before will be invalidated, and he will no longer have a dignified reason to enter the Changxiang Palace." At that time, even if he covets the Changxiang Hall again, unless he really kills all the great incense masters and convinces the Tang State to have a nobleman, he will not want to touch every grass and tree in the Xiangdian Palace. ”

Cui Wenshuang said: "You are right, if you really start in advance, it will do far more harm to Situ Jing than good." It's just that, don't you know that that person is actually a madman without a name, he is not the real high priest Situ Jing, he was originally the shadow of the high priest, and it was the shadow who took the master's place after killing the master, so he is also called Situ Jing. ”

Cui Feifei frowned, she had heard about these rumors about Situ Jing and the origin of her identity before. Because she hadn't thought about getting involved in these things before, she didn't care much about it, but now that the situation has taken a turn for the worse, she heard about it again, and she only felt a chill in her heart.

Cui Wenshuang continued: "If he really gambled everything he had, you would be fine, but do you dare to gamble with him on the lives of so many people up and down the Yuheng Palace?" ”

Cui Feifei couldn't answer, she knew that she couldn't afford to gamble, and she didn't dare to take this bet.

Even if Situ Jing was defeated and died in the end, Yuheng Hall and Changxiang Hall would die because of this...... Mo said that there were thousands of people, even if only one innocent person died, she could not accept it.

"So, what should I do?" After a long time, Cui Feifei spoke, "If Situ Jing really asked someone to bring out the Fragrance Seeking Gu, he would definitely be able to find the Fragranceless Flower, and then he would naturally know that I was back." When I came back like this, he should have understood my attitude on the matter, and he might have done it earlier. And if I don't go into the city, he has arranged for people to guard outside the city, and if you want to bring the unfragrant flowers into the city, I'm afraid it won't be easy. ”

Cui Wenshuang said: "This matter was originally sent in by you quietly, and I didn't let Situ Jing know that you were back, but I didn't want him to think of using the Fragrance Gu." So Mr. An's side also changed his strategy, this no fragrant flower can only trouble you to send it outside the city gate, just remember that when Situ Jing's people found you by looking for incense Gu, you were wronged, concealed your identity, and didn't let them know that you were Mr. Cui. As for the unscented flowers, Mr. An will ask another person to collect them when he arrives. ”

Cui Feifei hesitated: "Could it be that An Lan went out of the city in person?" ”

Cui Wenshuang shook her head: "I don't know about this." ”..
