As soon as the day dawned, Ye Qian got up early and began to be busy, according to Qingyin's habit, every fifteenth month, he would take out the paulownia wood piano that looked old and play a few songs, the sound of the piano was curling, and the aftermath was lingering. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Doctor Info will never miss the middle of the month, he will come as soon as Yaqu opens the door, and sometimes he will sit for half a day. Ye Qian chose this good opportunity today, making dried apricots, making refreshments, picking dew to make tea, everything was packed up, just waiting to open the door to welcome guests.

"Sister, the jade pendant will be returned to you." Ye Qian wiped his hands, took out the jade pendant from the wide cuffs and handed it back to Tian Shu, pursing his lips a little ashamedly, "I'm really sorry, I didn't remember where I saw it...... Didn't help my sister. ”

"Where are the words?" Tian Shu looked down after taking the jade pendant, frowned and sighed, and then held the jade pendant tightly in the palm of his hand, the glimmer of hope that had just ignited in his heart was also extinguished, he took a deep breath and comforted Ye Qian with a smile: "It's okay, you are willing to help, my sister is very moved, thank you!" ”

"Sister, don't be discouraged, we still have hope!"

"Hope?" Tian Shu raised her eyebrows and looked at Ye Qian with surprise and confusion.

"That's right!" Ye Qian smiled playfully, "Otherwise, why does my sister think I have to prepare for so long!" Today, Dr. Jimo will come, he has a wide range of knowledge, and he has also made friends with many nobles, I think he should know this jade pendant. Ye Qian thought about it for a long time, although she knew about Tian Qin, but after all, the person concerned was not her, even if she wanted to help, she had no position and no reason to come forward. After a while, when Dr. Jimo comes, my sister can ask him in person. He is a kind and kind elder. ”

What is the identity of Dr. Jimo Tian Shu naturally knew it, she never expected Ye Qian to know such a character, she was a little excited, and she held Ye Qian's hand tightly and said, "Little sister, my sister really doesn't know how to thank you." ”

"Okay, you're welcome!" Ye Qian tied the long skirt in a knot because it was inconvenient to do work, and bent down to tidy it up at this time, her beautiful and vulgar face was flushed, her long hair was a little scattered, and there was a little sweat on her forehead, she wiped it with a handkerchief at will, and she also felt a little embarrassed to describe it, pointed to the direction of her room, and said with a slight smile: "Sister, wait for me to clean up, and we will open the door when we come back in a while." ”

Tian Shu tried to calm down her overly excited emotions, nodded, and said, "Okay." ”

Ye Qian had just turned around to leave, when he heard the sound of the door opening, reflexively looked up at the second floor, and sure enough, he saw Qingyin walking out slowly. Because of the awkwardness, she hadn't seen Qingyin for several days, and now she was surprised and happy to see Qingyin, and hurriedly called: "Master?!" ”

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Tian Shu also looked towards the second floor, only to see that at the end of the stairs, a man in white was standing tall, but she only had a vague outline of Ye Qian's master's appearance, and she couldn't depict his appearance, but a sense of awe arose. Tian Shu was puzzled for a while, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and only after returning to his senses did he realize that he was rude, and bowed with a red face.

Qingyin is still a silver-white robe with dark embroidered moire, the black hair is loosely tied up by a jade-colored hairband, the eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, noble and elegant, Ye Qian has grown up in the past ten years, but the years have left no trace on his handsome face that is enough to overwhelm all beings. Qingyin looked at Ye Qian, who was smiling, condescendingly, and sighed helplessly, there are countless people in the world who are pitiful and lamentable, and there are even more unjust grievances, where can I manage it? And where can she manage it? He only hopes that Ye Qian will not get involved in right and wrong, just live an ordinary life, and now how can he let her be contaminated with this pool of troubled waters! His eyes swept over Ye Qian, looked at Tian Shu, frowned, bowed slightly, turned his gaze to Ye Qian, and explained in a clear voice: "Don't open the door today, close the door for a day." ”

Originally, it was already ready, if it didn't open the door, I didn't know how many more days it would take, Ye Qian was anxious, frowned, and looked straight at Qingyin: "Master, why?" ”

Tian Shu was also a little surprised by Qingyin's decision, but because people were the host and she were guests, no matter how eager she was, she couldn't say much in her heart. Pulled Ye Qian's sleeve and whispered: "Little sister, listen to your master!" ”

Ye Qian was still standing there, stubbornly looking up at Qingyin, unmoved.

Qingyin didn't answer, just frowned slightly and looked at Ye Qian, his deep and calm eyes were faintly angry, and he turned around and wanted to go back to the house. Okay, she really grew up and can make her own decisions, so she has to disobey him in everything?

"Master......" Looking at Qingyin's back as he turned around, Ye Qian's heart hurt fiercely, is Master angry and disappointed in himself? But she really didn't mean to contradict her master, but the voice in her heart urgently reminded her to solve Tian Qin's matter. He took a deep breath, tears rolling in his eyes, "Master, I'm sorry...... It's all shallow's fault, don't be angry! With his head down, he clutched the sleeve of his shirt that hung tightly in the palm of his hand.

Qingyin's hand pushing the door paused, did not turn back, sighed lightly, and there was a bit of helplessness in his clear voice, "Shallow, you come up." ”

"Huh?" Ye Qian hurriedly raised her head, but Qingyin had already entered the door and left only the closed door, she didn't care about Tian Shu beside her, rubbed her eyes indiscriminately, trotted a few steps, and went upstairs with her skirt.

"Little, little sister......"

In the lobby, only Tian Shu was left standing there stunned and a little puzzled, the master and apprentice were awkward? But that's weird! She had never seen someone like Ye Qian who dared to openly disobey her teacher's orders? I've never seen a master who would compromise with his disciples! Sure enough, after living for a long time and going to more places, you can see everything.

The furnishings in the house are very simple, the windows are ajar, and there is a cool breeze blowing. There is a low couch near the window, and there is a lacquer table on the couch, and the lacquer table is a guqin with a green tong as the face and the golden silk nanmu as the bottom, and the faint fragrance on the Qingyin body comes from the aroma of the golden silk nanmu at the bottom of the piano.

Qingyin sat on the edge of the low couch, looking down intently at the guqin on the lacquer table, her slender and beautiful fingers gently stroking the strings. After Ye Qian entered the door, she stood far away from the low couch, Qingyin didn't speak, and she lowered her head and didn't say a word.

After a long time, Qingyin turned her head and looked at Ye Qian with warm and clear eyes, looking at her bowing down and bowing her head with a look of admitting her mistake, Qingyin couldn't cry or laugh for a while. He knew that Ye Qian's admission of mistakes was entirely because he was angry when he saw him, not because he realized that she had indeed done something wrong, how could he not understand her personality? On the surface, she looks gentle and weak, but in her bones she is stubborn and admitting death, and she is so strong that it makes people feel distressed, and she can go all out for what she thinks is right, even if she breaks her head and bleeds, she will not necessarily stop. If you want to convince Ye Qian, if there is no convincing reason, it is basically a waste of words.

Qingyin's expression froze, and he didn't see half of his smile, "But I still remember that Master once told you that although you can see things that others can't, it doesn't mean that you have the ability to match them, and you have the divine law that is above all things." When the Heavenly Dao is still strong and insufficient, you should do everything according to your ability, and do not act recklessly. ”

Ye Qian nodded, and immediately understood what Qingyin was going to say. pursed her lips, but she was indignant in her heart, and narrowed her eyes slightly, okay, Rhubarb actually sued her!

"You don't have to complain about Chenghuang, I don't need to go through him yet."

"Huh?! How could Master ......" Ye Qian suddenly looked up at Qingyin, she had always felt that Master had great powers, but she didn't expect that he would know what she thought in her heart. Facing Shang Qingyin's profound gaze, Ye Qian bit her lip, only to realize that she didn't admit herself, "Master, I didn't want to be strong, it's just, it's just ......" She didn't say a reason for a long time, in fact, she knew in her heart that she was reckless, and she shouldn't take it for granted and agreed to Tian Qin. Suddenly walked up to Qingyin and knelt on his knees, and asked very reverently, "Master, I really want to help them, can you tell me what I should do?" ”

Qingyin always smiles warmly in front of Ye Qian on weekdays, looking elegant and vulgar and approachable, but now she is smiling and frowning slightly, full of solemnity and majesty, which makes people feel awe.

"You get up first."

"Master......"

"Just for those few irrelevant people?"

"They are not irrelevant people, yes, they are ......" Ye Qian met Qingyin's unangry and arrogant gaze, because his heart was pounding with nervousness, and he didn't know how to describe it for a while, so he simply closed his eyes and said firmly: "That's not only Tian Qin's wish, but also a shallow long-cherished wish, and I hope that Master can fulfill it." ”

They are not related to her, when did the obsession of the remnant soul become her long-cherished wish again? Qingyin flicked her sleeves, turned around and stopped paying attention to Ye Qian, she knelt if she was willing to kneel! Ye Qian's temperament is ignorant of the world and too enthusiastic and persistent, I am afraid that she will suffer in the future, he can indulge her, it does not mean that others will tolerate her unconditionally.

The slender fingers plucked the piano a few times at will, and then Qingyue's voice flowed tactfully on the fingertips, as if the rushing spring water hit the drift ice blocked by the river, and it seemed to be the stream flowing happily in the mountain stream, and finally all the sounds fell silent, as if it was an ice lotus silently placed on the top of the snow-capped mountain, Ling Ran was arrogant.

The sound of the clear piano revealed three points of loneliness and coldness, and seven points of dust, which made Ye Qian's heart very uncomfortable. Should she stand by and watch? Maybe she really shouldn't care about it, and she doesn't have the ability to take care of it, but she doesn't know what's wrong with her, she wants to be so persistent, and she wants to make the master angry. Ye Qian thumped his head in annoyance, sighed, knelt on the ground and slowly moved over, looked up at Qingyin's side face, gently pulled his sleeve, and his tone was much softer, "Master, don't be angry!" I know it's wrong, and I'll listen to Master in everything from now on! ”

Qingyin turned his head and glanced at it lightly, neither happy nor angry, Ye Qian was at a loss for a while, his bright and clear eyes said innocent loss, like a little beast afraid of being hurt, pulling Qingyin's sleeves and shaking it gently.

Qingyin frowned slightly, but she still couldn't bear to blame her with too heavy words, reached out and touched Ye Qian's head, and sighed lightly, "Master is afraid that you are in danger, the forces involved in this matter are too huge, and eleven years have passed, where are you going to find out the truth?" He helped Ye Qian up from the ground, motioned for her to sit on the other side of Qi Ji, and continued: "There has been a contradiction between Qi and Yan for a long time, if Tian Qin's identity twenty-three years ago was the fine work sent to Yan by King Qi Xuan, then he knew some secrets, and after his identity was exposed, he fled back to Qi from Yan State, and was not killed in the territory of Yan State, and Qi State was not attacked all the way, why did he die outside Jimo City?" ”

Ye Qian was stunned for a moment, and looked at Qingyin in surprise: "What does Master mean...... Doctor Jimo, he also participated in the assassination of Tian Qin back then? He pursed his lips and suddenly realized, "That's why Master won't let me ask him?!" ”

"He may not have been involved in the assassination, but he must have been given an order to cover up the traces and clean up the aftermath, otherwise there was a murder outside Jimo City, how could there be nowhere to investigate?"

If Ye Qian wanted to ask Dr. Jimo about the origin of the jade pendant, and after listening to Tian Tan's words, he would inevitably mention the incident eleven years ago, and if Doctor Jimo saw the jade pendant, he would understand Tian Qin's identity after only a little thought, after all, assassinating a nobleman is not a trivial matter, how could he not be alert? Qingyin's thoughts are precisely here, the deceased is gone, the past is like smoke, he doesn't think that Dr. Jimo will offend the powerful people who are like the sun for the old things. Mortals will always make bigger mistakes one after another to cover up small mistakes, even at the cost of innocent lives to save themselves.

Ye Qian was still puzzled: "But, but isn't Tian Qin a nobleman of the Qi Kingdom?" ”

"Who and what can prove his identity?"

was asked by Qingyin, Ye Qian was suddenly dumbfounded, yes, since the identity of the fine work must be secret, only a few people know that twenty-three years ago, Tian Qin was ordered by King Qi Xuan to go to Yan Kingdom, and twelve years later, he has already changed the ruler, and the person who knows his identity may be long gone, and even the only jade pendant that can prove his identity was given to Ji Wei by Tian Qin as a token.

Qingyin didn't give Ye Qian much time to think, and continued to ask: "Qianqian, think about it, who has the right to order Doctor Jimo to cover up the facts?" And Dr. Jimo is not a mediocre person, it is impossible not to notice, why did this person behind the scenes risk that the matter might be revealed? ”

"The official position is above Dr. Jimo, and the secret that Tian Qin knows threatens him."

Qingyin guided Ye Qian's train of thought little by little, "The secret that Tian Qin got from Yan State will threaten the magnates of Qi State, which shows that this person is connected to Yan State, and it is not difficult to guess who it is." ”

Ye Qian went through the people whose official positions were above the Jimo doctor one by one in his mind, most of the magnates of the Qi State were hereditary nobles, and they had no reason to harm their own interests to serve the King of Yan, and the only noble man from the poor family was the guest secretary who once held the seal of the six countries, and now the prime minister of the Qi State is above 10,000 people under one person. Ye Qian was frightened by his own speculation, and asked uncertainly: "Prime Minister Su Qin came from Yan Kingdom eleven years ago, could it be him?" ”

Qingyin bowed slightly, Ye Qian was a little smarter, and such a keen was beyond the reach of ordinary politicians.

"So the secret that Tian Qin knows is Su Qin's identity?" Although Ye Qian was surprised, he still roughly understood, "Su Qin is a fine work sent by King Yan to the Qi Kingdom, right?" ”

"But it is more useful than fine work, as the prime minister, he directly influences the decision-making of King Qi. Su Qin is in the Yan State, which can make Qi not seek Yan, and can make Qi and Zhao hostile, and in the past eleven years, he has built a lot of buildings, separated the monarchs and ministers, and constantly reduced the national strength of the Qi State. The Qi State now looks strong on the surface, but in fact, its strength has long been weakened, and I think the day when the King of Yan will take revenge on the Qi State is not far off. ”

"Revenge?" Ye Qianxin was shocked and asked rhetorically. National strife, political conspiracy, she doesn't understand these very well, but she knows that as long as the war is together, there will be bloodshed and sacrifices, and by then more than one Tian Qin will die tragically, not only the tragedy of Ji Wei's family, I don't know how many families will be ruined. Could it be that the accumulation of white bones is just for revenge, for shame?

Seeing Ye Qian's frowns, Qingyin naturally knew what she was thinking, touched her head, and comforted: "Qianqian, peace is only a temporary stability, war can never be avoided, this is a fate that cannot be changed, not only human beings, even the gods who created all living beings cannot escape." ”

Qingyin's voice sounded calm and indifferent, Ye Qian felt a little strange in her heart but didn't have time to think about it, what she was most concerned about now was not the war but Tian Qin's affairs. "Master, I was wrong, I didn't expect things to be like this." If Tian Shu finds out the truth of the matter, it will undoubtedly push their mother and daughter to the abyss of death, because her reckless behavior will really harm others and herself, and now she is willing to keep this secret forever. Frowning slightly, "But is it really just a matter of standing by like this?" ”

"Or else?"

"But, but my aunt, her time is running out, do you really want her to die with regrets?"

"Who will admit the truth without evidence, and who will believe it?" The deep eyes looked at Ye Qian, and asked lightly.

"That's right." Ye Qian sighed, lowered her head in frustration, only to feel that her chest was dull, and she couldn't breathe. Frowning, what to do, how can I help them? Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, raised his head, and looked at Qingyin with clear and bright eyes full of expectation, since the conventional way is dangerous and unworkable, then think of some other way. "Master, is it possible for the eldest lady to see Tian Qin's ghost?" Blinking his eyes, the more Ye Qian spoke, the more excited he became: "Or let Tian Tan's ghost possess me." ”

"Nonsense!" Qingyin was really stunned by Ye Qian, and her own soul would be damaged when she was leaned over by a ghost, so she could think of such an unreliable idea.

The more Ye Qian thought about it, the more he felt that this method was very good, he looked at Qingyin with his face in his hands, and continued: "Wouldn't it be good for us to let Tian Qin tell the truth about the year in person, and also ask the eldest mother to promise not to pursue this matter again?" ”

"Shallow, why bother yourself about things that have nothing to do with you?"

"Doesn't Master often say that things should have a beginning and an end? I just listened to Master's words too much, so I was so persistent in helping others to the end! Ye Qian shook Qingyin's arm and began to be coquettish like when he was a child, "Master, let's help them, okay?" ”

In the end, it was his fault? Seeing that Ye Qian was serious and reasonable, Qingyin smiled helplessly, and knocked her forehead heavily with her bent finger.

Ye Qian was pained and frowned, but said with a hippie smile: "Master smiled, that is, he is not angry?" ”

"Don't meddle in the rest of the matter, just leave it to Master, but you also have to learn a lesson, and you must not act rashly in the future." If Ye Qian can stop here, Qingyin doesn't want to pay attention to mundane things, but right now, if he doesn't care about her, maybe something will happen, and in the end, he has to clean up the mess.

"Got it—"

"Dare to make trouble in the future?" Qingyin's expression froze, and he said solemnly: "It's just this time, don't you take it as an example, understand?" ”

"Well, thank you, Master!" Seeing that Qingyin was no longer angry and pursued, Ye Qiancai rubbed his somewhat reddened forehead with a bitter face, and complained: "Master is so heavy!" ”

"If you don't focus on it, you won't have a long memory!"

"I promise! I promise that I will never cause trouble for Master again! ”

Although Ye Qian didn't know what Qingyin was going to do, she knew that since Qingyin promised to help, he would definitely do it, because in her heart, he was like a god in the world, omniscient and omnipotent.
