Chapter 43: The Future of Xia Yu
When he learned that Wei Han was the deputy pavilion master of Tingyu Pavilion, Xi Yutang was not shocked in his heart. Or, when she realized that the deputy pavilion master might be someone she knew, she expected that there would be such a day - wasn't Wei Han also someone she knew?
She and Wei Han had a friendship with a sword, and then killed Han Wenyan in front of him, and when they met again, they didn't know whether they were friends or enemies.
The only thing that makes people's hearts chill is probably Wei Han's Jinyi Division's identity.
Who is this person?
If it is a pure lackey of the court, does that mean that Tingyu Pavilion is also a court?
If it is said that the largest killer organization in the rivers and lakes has a royal background, it is actually reasonable. Listening to the rain pavilion originated at the end of the previous dynasty, it was the stage before and after the Si clan raised the army, and it was understandable to hold the power of the rivers and lakes in his hands.
But listening to the erratic position of the Yu Pavilion, no one has suspected that the other party has a court background for so many years, even Yue Qingfeng, who is now hand-eyed, also showed surprise when he learned of Wei Han's identity as the deputy pavilion master, obviously he didn't expect it.
After confirming the biggest doubt in his heart, Xi Yutang was not in a hurry.
Now that Jiangnan Wulin is in turmoil, everyone is still in a state of confusion, busy cleaning up the mess, competing for fame, and taking advantage of the opportunity, but it is Xi Yue and the two who started it are completely idle.
Although there were casualties in this game, in the final analysis, they won. There is still a month left before Xi Yutang set the day for herself to go to the Qinggu Valley of the Listening Rain Pavilion, and this month is enough for her to heal her injuries, and by the way, she will integrate the Changyin Sword Technique, and leave the rest to Xue Yang and the others.
Jiang Qiantong was secretly sent back to Qiuyu Villa, Mo Jin's life was also saved by Shen Qi, and the Zheng family's seizure of the throne continued, but it is said that the second young master of the Zheng family showed favor to the Yue family, Wei Han and Lin Yuan are still expanding the scope of the search, Shaoguang is still avoiding the limelight, and Si Li has finally arrived in Hangzhou.
The house in the east of the city was destroyed, and there was no way to go back to live for the time being, and after more than ten days of farewell to Yanyutai, Xi Yutang lived in a separate courtyard with Yue Qingfeng again.
The young master of the Yue family did not show it on his face, and his heart was already happy.
Others don't know, but Si Nian knows, his master used the public for personal gain, and when he sent him to help Xue Yang on the night of the assassination, he easily destroyed the house in Xuantian Jiangnan Hall in the east of the city, otherwise why didn't Sect Master Xi go back to live and live in their other courtyard?
But Xi Xiao's sect leader lives in, it's really a good thing for you, I'm good, everyone's good, at least the young master won't pull weeds anymore, Qiu Yuan doesn't have to sigh all day long, he also has opponents to practice swords...... So although Si Nian despised his master in his heart for a while, he still happily welcomed the return of Xuantian and the others.
The young master does not have neuropathy, and all of them are like promotions and salary increases.
Sect Leader Xi Xiao can finally recuperate from his injuries and practice his sword with peace of mind.
The young master of the Yue family can finally carry a small stool every day to watch his sweetheart practice swords.
All the members of Yanyutai said, Han Wenyan, it's good to die!
After a few months of absence, Si Li finally arrived in Hangzhou, and in addition, he also brought a helper - Leng Yi.
Leng Yi tracked Sang Nian for several months, went around in a big circle, and finally caught up with Jiangnan at the end, and met Si Li halfway. At that time, the worried Hall Master Lu Zheng was still having a headache with Yingqiu who to send to the sect leader, and after knowing that Leng Yi had also arrived in Jiangnan, he immediately said happily, Hall Master Leng Please stay with the sect leader, don't come back if you have nothing to do.
So far, except for Yingqiu, three of the four secret guards left by Xi Yutang in the past have come to her.
Shaoguang, Xue Yang, Yingqiu, Leng Yi, Leng Yi has the highest martial arts among the four, and everyone is relieved to have him by the sect leader's side. After all, no matter how powerful Xue Yang and Shaoguang are, they are only two people, and once they both go out to do things, the safety of the sect leader himself cannot be guaranteed. In their hearts, the younger the Lord is an outsider after all, so they can't put such a big bet on him, right?
So when Leng Yi appeared on the Yanyutai, Xue Yangbiao showed unusual enthusiasm. This wooden man was about to give the Leng Hall Master a hug - after all, Leng Yi was worried about the sect leader's safety, and he could have more time to accompany his sweetheart, right?
…… Only the less the Lord, was very depressed for a few days.
After leaving Shaoguang Jiang Qiantong, came to Si Li Leng Hall Master, these four people picked out one of them at random, and they all stuck to the little sect master, leaving aside the others, Yue Qingfeng clearly remembered that he was the first time he saw Leng on Wushan, and this hall master unceremoniously let him stay away from his family master.
Why!
Why should his sweetheart stay away!
The less the main heart is stuffed.
But Xi Yutang didn't care about him, and greeted Si Li and Leng Yi happily. As soon as the three of them met, Si Li pounced, and was about to pounce into the arms of his sect leader, but suddenly someone grabbed him by the collar. Si Li turned his head angrily, just in front of the expressionless zombie face.
Si Li: "...... Who are you? Let it go! ”
Si Nian: "Sect Leader Xi is injured. ”
Si Li: "Oh yes? Do you think I don't know? If you don't let go, don't ask for your hand! ”
Si Nian: "......"
Looking at his black and blue hands expressionlessly, Si Nian's expression became even colder. Qiu Yuan on the side almost laughed, his little face flushed, and Yue Qingfeng sighed helplessly, remembering the first time he and Si Li met.
This right Dharma protector really spares no effort to poison every outsider who approaches his family leader......
In the end, Si Nian still let go, and the right protector successfully threw himself into Xi Yutang's arms, seemingly reckless, but in fact he was cautious, seeing Xi Yutang crying and laughing, he rubbed his little face, and ordered him to detoxify Si Nian.
Si Li threw a pill over with an unhappy face, and Si Nian took the pill without hesitation under the smiling gaze of Sect Leader Xi.
Qiu Yuan was stunned on the side, and the more Qingfeng looked at Si Nian twice, he suddenly felt ...... It seems that the people around me like Xi Yutang very much......
Looking at the pale but smiling man who was surrounded in the middle of the courtyard, the young master of the Yue family was extremely aggrieved - why does everyone like the master's sweetheart?
I want to get all the qaq
Finally seeing his own sect leader, Si Li pulled Xi Yutang and chattered about his longing, and by the way, he reported the things he thought were important. However, Leng Yi didn't say anything more than to say goodbye to his master, and he didn't look at him until Xi Yutang stabilized his boss and left.
The Leng Hall Master was born handsome and resolute, a pair of Danfeng eyes always flashed with cold light, thin lips were pursed, and he spoke less than Xue Yang, which was diametrically opposed to Qin Xuan's Qin Hall Master's personality, and he was one of the most difficult people in the Xuantian Sect to deal with.
Si Li didn't have much friendship with Leng Yi, and he was about to suffocate him with an ice cube along the way. In the hearts of everyone in the Snow Mountain, only their own sect leader can chat with Leng Yi, and this is one of the reasons why Si Li breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xi Yutang.
"Good work." Xi Yutang smiled at Leng Yi.
The latter shook his head, pulled out a stack of materials from his sleeve and handed it over, which was the result of his summary of tracking Sang Nian in recent months and the results of his investigation along the way.
Xi Yutang took it, but he didn't look at it, urging the two of them to take a bath and rest, and talk about it the next day.
Si Li obediently responded, but stared at Yue Shao Master with a cold gaze a few times, and then left without saying a word.
The younger master was inexplicably stared at, confused, and had to look at Xi Yutang aggrievedly. The latter rolled his eyes, took out the chessboard, and beckoned him to sit down.
Play chess.
Naturally, it's not Go.
Except for Qin Xuan on the snow mountain, no one can play Go.
The younger the master, naturally, also accompanied Xi Yutang to play the backgammon that everyone in Xuantian was good at.
Although it was early autumn, Jiangnan was still as hot as a steamer. Two people who are weak and injured and are not afraid of heat play chess, drink hot tea instead of herbal tea, put cold water instead of ice cubes, and suffer Qiuyuan who is waiting next to him.
Seeing that this kid was sweating profusely, Xi Yutang envied his good health, and waved his hand unbearably, "Go and rest in Qiuyuan." ”
Qiu Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at his master with hope, the latter glanced at him coolly, and Qiu Yuan immediately bowed his head obediently.
After a while, I heard Yue Qingfeng say slowly, "Don't you want to go?" ”
…… Qiu Yuan immediately ran away, shouting as he ran, "I'll go and decoct the two of you!" ”
In the past, when Xi Yue and the two played chess, they always discussed conspiracies and tricks while playing, but this time, the discussion that should be discussed is over, and the discussion that should not be discussed is not said, and they simply chatted while playing chess, and the atmosphere is good.
Yue Qingfeng wanted to know what was written on the report handed over by Leng Yi, but when he remembered that Xi Yutang said, 'It's not the time to pull you into the game', he was a little discouraged, and saw that she was in a good mood, so he had to look at the dishes and say lightly.
…… After all, backgammon is really not technically difficult.
"On August 15, I went back to my old house in Suzhou." Yue Qingfeng said lightly, "The fire grass has already been given to Shen Qi." ”
"Thank you." Xi Yutang snapped and put down a mellow cold jade chess piece, "What am I doing on August 15?" ”
Yue Qingyun didn't raise his head, "Chengdong recuperates." ”
“…… Oh. ”
Xi Yutang thought about putting down a chess piece next to the white chess, and wrote lightly, "I forgot about August 15...... It's time for Xue Yang and Shaoguang to go out for a walk. ”
They don't have any concept of festivals. A group of singles, no family, no father, no mother, no brothers, the four secret guards are all orphans, two hall masters, Zou Qing's family is dead, Si Li's background is unknown, and a high-level Shen Qi has long since left the Shen family and the Medicine King Valley...... Thinking about it, it is not easy to have such a unified life experience.
"Next time I have the opportunity, I can take them to the West Lake to put lanterns." Yue Qingfeng pursed a faint smile on his lips, "It's very lively at night, but it's a good place for pastime." ”
Xi Yutang raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, and put another one, "Next year and next year...... Who knows if you and I will live next year. ”
Yue Qingfeng's hand paused and slowed down before slowly putting it down, "Win." ”
Xi Yutang glared, and immediately pouted, "It's really annoying to play chess with you, it's better to play mahjong, at least you can win some pocket money." ”
...... "What the hell is that, and you lack pocket money to ask me!"
Before Yue Qingfeng could speak, Xi Yutang returned the chess pieces and put a black chess piece in the center of the chessboard by himself.
"How can there be no next year?" He followed, "The thing is not done, are you willing?" ”
"Of course not." Xi Yutang played with the chess pieces slowly, "But it can also happen, right?" You're sick, I'm in a demon, and the two short-lived ghosts are still thinking about the future, which is funny. ”
The chess pieces in Yue Qingfeng's hand did not fall for a long time, and after a while, he directly threw the white son into the pot, and the person leaned on the soft cushion behind him, half-supported his upper body, and looked at her angrily and with a smile, "Can you play chess well?" ”
Xi Yutang also knew that his words were discouraged, so he grinned at him flatteringly, simply put together the chess pieces, and lazily lay on the chessboard, "Okay, if you don't play, you can't win anyway." ”
The kiss at the last banquet of Qushui made the relationship between the two fall to the freezing point for a while. But with Han Wenyan's death and Xi Yue teaming up again, both of them wisely stopped mentioning the incident as if nothing had happened.
However, it's not like it hasn't happened.
"Su Xi ......" Xi Yutang leaned on the chessboard with his forehead pressed against the back of his hand, and his voice came in a muffled voice, "Don't you really think about what I said that night in the drunken flower building?" ”
Yue Qingfeng was stunned and did not speak.
"You don't talk to me when you acquiesce?" Xi Yutang raised his head, revealing only a pair of eyes.
"You dare." Yue Qingfeng's face was expressionless.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Yue Qingfeng lowered his eyes first, "Xi Yutang, why does it have to be black and white?" Since I don't know if I'll be here next year, why can't I go ahead and see? Do you have to divide it now? Am I going to give up if I have a clear answer? You ......"
Before he finished speaking, he couldn't help coughing.
Xi Yutang heard the anger in his words, and hurriedly sat up straight, "Okay, don't talk about it, don't be angry with yourself...... Give, tea. ”
Yue Qingqing pushed back the tea handed to him without raising his head.
Silently glancing at the rejected teacup, Xi Yutang was helpless, "I'm not forcing you to give up or anything, it's just ...... Hey, let's not talk about it. ”
She couldn't explain clearly, and she couldn't say anything better, so she lost her temper herself, so she simply put down the teacup and buried her head back on the chessboard.
After a while, I heard her muffled voice, "I didn't think that I would live a long life, I just wanted to do what I had to do in a limited time, my life is very long, but my life is short...... Otherwise, I'm going to try to find a way to solve the problem? ”
On the other side, Yue Qingfeng finally stopped coughing, and suddenly heard such a divine sentence, the whole person froze for a moment, and looked at the person lying lazily in front of him in surprise, "...... What did you say? ”
Xi Yutang simply turned his head and looked at the courtyard without saying a word.
Cicadas chirp and insects chirp, the hot wind blows, and the smoke and rain platform in the afternoon seems to fall into a deep sleep. Yue Qingfeng stared at the deliberately silent person in front of him, and he didn't react to what he had just heard for a long time.
He subconsciously straightened his back, "You just said ......"
"Master, master, the medicine is ready!" Qiu Yuan rushed into the courtyard with the food box all the way, "You and Sect Leader Xi have all the medicine, drink it while it's hot!" ”
Yue Qingfeng: "......"
Seeing Qiuyuan delivering medicine, Xi Yutang got up from the chessboard slowly, and looked over with a light smile, "Qiuyuan, do you have any candied fruit?" ”
…… The expression was as natural as if nothing had happened just now.
"Take it, don't worry!" Qiu Yuan came over with a smile, put away the chessboard first, and then opened the food box and carefully took out two bowls of black medicinal juice, "The above one is my master's, and the following one is yours, Doctor Shen said, the medicine must be drunk while it is hot, and it must be drunk, you can't drink half and pour half, let me supervise it." ”
The lively and cheerful young man wiped the sweat from his forehead, and finally conjured a small plate of candied fruit from the food box and put it between the two, "Okay! ”
As he spoke, he looked back at Yue Qingfeng, "Master, you ......."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly silenced, Qiu Yuan was stunned and met Yue Qingfeng's cold and ruthless gaze, seeing that his master's face was extremely bad, obviously he was extremely angry, and for some reason, he was actually chilled on a hot day.
The young man's hairs were about to stand up, he turned his head to avoid his master's sight, shivered excitedly, and asked Xi Yutang for help with the corner of his eye.
Xi Yutang looked at Qiu Yuan, and then at Yue Qingfeng with a black face, and couldn't help laughing anymore, and the whole person fell on the soft cushion, covering the wound while laughing and shouting Ouch, it hurts......
"Autumn Far ......"
Yue Qingfeng's voice came coldly, Qiu Yuan suddenly trembled, and grinned stiffly, "...... Yes? ”
"Three years."
“……”
"Ouch, don't, don't," Xi Yutang laughed so hard that his wound hurt, "Don't fine the monthly money, and then punish this kid for almost a lifetime of day work, how can he marry a daughter-in-law hahaha......"
Qiu Yuan wanted to cry without tears.
Yue Qingfeng took a deep breath, and saw the person opposite smiling like that, and his face was even worse. Xi Yutang kicked Qiu Yuan, "This seat has pleaded with you, and you will run away if you don't see it?" ”
…… Qiu Yuan immediately jumped like a frightened rabbit, turned around and ran out.
After a while, Xi Yutang laughed enough, and when he saw that the person opposite was still looking angry with a tense face, he couldn't help but tap the bowl with his fingers, "Okay." ”
Yue Qingfeng looked at her with an aggrieved expression.
Xi Yutang picked up the medicine bowl, this time the medicine was too bitter, it had to be dried in one mouthful, Shen Qi's anger was not a joke.
"Come on, after this bowl of medicine, we're not angry."
“……”
"Hurry up." She urged.
The younger lord reluctantly picked up the bowl and gently touched the edge of her bowl.
"May the people around me have many next years." Xi Yutang is serious.
Yue Qingfeng stared at her for a long time, then sighed, broke the can and said, "I hope that at this time next year, I will still be here, without drinking medicine, year after year." ”
Xi Yutang suddenly smiled, "Well said." ”
As he spoke, he raised his head and drank the medicine.
The same goes for the person opposite.
The two of them put down the empty bowl at the same time, and they were so bitter that they couldn't speak because of the medicine that Shen Qi had changed the prescription, and they both reached out to take the candied fruit, and it took a while to dispel the bitter taste in their mouths, and they looked at each other for a moment, and laughed.
I never thought that drinking a medicine would also make me proud.
I only wish you and me, with great ambitions, and endless years.
