Lin Guanlan saw Xiang Yunshan's absent-minded appearance, and immediately guessed that Xiang Yunshan was waiting to answer, he flashed to Xiang Yunshan's window, and said to Xiang Yunshan vigilantly: "What is Xiang Yunshan looking at?"
"What do you have to do with it?" Xiang Yunshan looked at Lin Guanlan angrily, she knew who Lin Guanlan was, Lin Guanlan was a friend of Mu Qinyi, Prince Su, and Mu Qinyi was a protective figure to that fake princess, so this Lin Guanlan, most of the time, was not a good person.

"It has nothing to do with me?" Lin Guanlan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "It really has nothing to do with me, but for the Xiang family, it has a great relationship, Xiang girl, turning back is still the shore, you are only one step or two wrong, Xiang Old Madam may be able to redeem it for you, but if you are wrong for a thousand steps, ten thousand steps, even if the Buddha speaks, no one can save you." โ
"Why do I need you to save me? Xiang Yunshan suddenly grinned, and suddenly, a puff of smoke rose outside, as if someone had attracted the miasma in the Lingnan dense forest, and instantly shrouded Xiang Jia as if in the depths of the Heavenly Palace.
Xiang Yunshan saw that he was going to take advantage of the chaos to escape, but he was caught by the red sleeves first, although the red sleeves are also women, but they have practiced martial arts all year round, and their strength is much greater than that of Xiang Yunshan, once they catch Xiang Yunshan, Xiang Yunshan will not be able to escape at all, but Xiang Yunshan is also a ruthless woman, she suddenly turned her wrist, revealing the originally smooth jade bracelet in her hand to the side full of blades, and cut it directly at the wrist of the red sleeves.
Red Sleeves originally wanted to be braced, but the wrist is a fragile and densely veined place, and it didn't take long for the blood to flow down along the fingertips of Red Sleeves, drop by drop, Lin Guanlan wanted to chase it out, but found that Xiang Yun's shirt had disappeared into the fog without a trace.
Being able to create such a big fog in such a short period of time, and also help Xiang Yunshan escape, this person is definitely not simple, Lin Guanlan glanced at the injury of the red sleeves, and then looked at Song Ning, Song Ning didn't say a word, just let the red sleeves follow him to bandage.
Old Mrs. Xiang was choked by the thick fog, and was helped aside by Xie Shi to rest, while angrily scolding Xiang Yunshan's name, only calling her a bad animal, Lin Guanlan did not comment.
After all, why Xiang Yunshan appeared in the capital, it was indeed that the old lady Xiang wanted to borrow Xiang Yunshan to offset the marriage between the Xiang family and Beiliang, just like Xiang Yunshan said, it was just to find a scapegoat for Mu Chenghuang, and now, this scapegoat has become powerful, and it has eaten up to Mrs. Xiang herself, this old lady Xiang, who has always only won and never lost, naturally can't bear it.
However, Xie Shi kept thinking about what Xiang Yunshan said just now, and timidly asked in the ear of Xiang Yunshan: "Old lady, do you think what Xiang Yunshan said is true or false?"
"Nonsense," Xiang said to the old lady with a sneer, "This girl, now she is blinded by lard, in order to excuse herself, she can't think of any reason, Mu Chenghuang is the concubine's own child, if it is not her own child, why should the concubine treat her like this, is it not her own daughter, concubine Ru can't judge? I still can't recognize it? Am I blind, or is this world blind, who can pretend to be a golden branch and jade leaf, it's really a dream, it's really infatuated." โ
Every word of the old lady is like an iron ball thrown on the ground, generous and powerful, irrefutable, and I don't know if she is dead and only recognizes the granddaughter of Mu Chenghuang, or can't accept that her own granddaughter will be out of the house for fifteen years, but now, it has become such a ruthless appearance.
Let her accept this result, she would rather admit that the current fifth princess, Mu Chenghuang, is her own grandson.
Since the old lady spoke like this, Xie didn't dare to say much, but just ordered the family members around him to go out and search quickly, and if they found any suspicious people, they would all bring them back.
Lin Guanlan only waited for the old lady to calm down a little, and only then did he propose the main purpose of his visit this time, and waited for the people to be gone, so that he could tell the old lady and Pan about the difficulties of the Shen family and Shen Ke's current situation.
"Are you asking me to come forward in person?" Although the old lady Xiang had just gotten up from the sickbed, she was frightened a lot, she should have been recuperating, but Lin Guanlan mentioned this matter is not trivial, if she doesn't talk about it today, I'm afraid she won't be able to sleep.
"That's right, only by personally intervening with you, old lady, can we solve this tricky matter. Lin Guanlan told the old lady about his plans and intentions.
The moon stars are scarce, and at the same time, Xiang Yunshan's situation is not much better, she is tired, riding a horse, like a lost dog, she doesn't dare to stop for a moment, as if as long as she pauses for a while, the people sent to Xiang Yunshan's family will catch up and escort her back, parade through the streets, tell everyone how vicious and ruthless she is.
Is she vicious? Probably a little.
Is she ruthless? Maybe.
But wasn't all of this forced out by this situation? If she hadn't been outcast, if someone hadn't always taken her place, would she have become what she is now?
Xiang Yunshan quickly whipped his horse, although he was not good at riding, but when he ran for his life, he couldn't care so much, and there was someone in front of him to lead the way, although the person walked fast, but the faster he was, the more Xiang Yunshan dared not relax.
After a while, I came to a small temple, which was dilapidated and seemed to be deserted, but inside, there was a steady flow of heat.
Xiang Yunshan arrived at the door, dismounted cautiously, glanced around, and the person who came with her said a little impatiently: "I have already checked around, and there is no one else, you can rest assured, the master is already waiting for you in the house." โ
Xiang Yunshan nodded solemnly, just about to go in, but he listened to the person who led the way and added a sentence without yin or yang: "Things are done like this, if I were you, I would have no face to see the master a long time ago, and I would kill myself directly." โ
This sentence made Xiang Yunshan, who had no bottom in her heart, feel like she was soaked in ice water, she took a deep breath and stepped into the threshold, inside, a bonfire was burning, and the warm fire swayed the face of the person sitting on a stone statue of the Buddha's head.
He folded his hands, close to the fire, silently roasting the fire, and sat firmly on the head of the Buddha, who was supposed to be high above and admired by all people, as if these things related to the Buddha were just some unsightly little things to him.
Seeing Xiang Yunshan coming in, this person raised his head slightly, but he didn't speak, just glanced at it, but it made Xiang Yunshan kneel down like a stunned stud, bury his head down, and dare not speak.
"It stands to reason that you should have brought up your head to see you. The man's voice was cold, he raised his head, a few strands of broken hair on his face fell on the tip of his eyebrows, and he lowered his head again, "Keep your life, but it depends on your identity, you have to know that your identity, whether it is worth or not, it all depends on me, in other words, for the emperor, for Mu Xiangbai, your value is far inferior to that of Mu Chenghuang, who replaced you." โ
"Why!" This is the last thing Xiang Yunshan likes to hear, if he says this to the old lady and the Xiang family, forget it, after all, they already have a preconceived idea that Mu Chenghuang is the golden branch and jade leaf, but this person clearly knows that he is the real one, why should he slander himself like this.
"Because, the identity of the five princesses, anyone can be, there is not much trouble to Dashun, but the identity of the medicine primer, only the people of Tianchi can be, Tianchi country, is said to be a descendant of the ancient fire god Zhurong, but after Pangu opened the world, one of the twelve witch ancestors who turned into the twelfth drop of blood, because of mistakes, was relegated to the extreme north, and sealed the monstrous fire of Zhurong with the bitter cold of the extreme north, the legend is a legend after all, but the blood of the people of this Tianchi country can really make the dead wood bloom and the dead tree sprout, which is why, the emperor Mu Yuan'an, has to put so much effort into letting the little princess of the Tianchi country take the place of your five princesses by Su NuanSince he was able to abandon your own daughter back then and lead Su Nuan into the palace to take blood to continue his life, how can he expose everything he did back then and admit that you are his biological daughter for you? You think too much of your so-called father. โ
Xiang Yunshan still couldn't believe what the person in front of her said, she opened her mouth and said, "But Heavenly Master didn't mean ....... โ
"This time is different from the past," this person slowly raised his head, the thin moonlight outside sprinkled in the corners of his eyes, the fire in front of him jumped and thought, like a dancing ribbon, this person is no one else, it is the former Dragon and Tiger Mountain Heavenly Master Guo Tianli who has disappeared for a long time, "What I once said to you, it may not be possible to achieve it today, you think too much." โ
This Guo Tianli, Mu Chenghuang and Mu Qinyi are looking for him, Mu Xiangbai is looking for him again, even Mu Yuanan, who is trapped in the palace, also wants to do everything he can to find him again, but he didn't expect that he was in this small broken temple in the south of the Yangtze River, although there was no one around him, but he was followed by some cronies' disciples, and his life was not comfortable, but it was much better than those displaced people.
He knows very well that his current situation is definitely not inevitable, one day, he will return to the capital, return to Longhu Mountain, and return to the peak of his original power, he thought that Xiang Yunshan was his bargaining chip for a comeback, he thought that with Xiang Yunshan's ability and identity, it would be easy to get the entire industry of the Xiang family.
But he didn't expect that at this critical time, he would kill a Lin Guanlan and Song Ning, and ruin his own plan, but it doesn't matter, even if he doesn't have the Xiangjia industry as a springboard, what he Guo Tianli has, the real talent and status, can't be bought by no amount of silver.
"But there's news from the west, when will King Qin's army enter the Central Plains?" Guo Tianli asked a small disciple beside him.
