24. Secret calculation

When Yunshan and Yunzhu arrived, Xiyue had already hidden the small porcelain vase that Yili had given.

Yunzhu saw that Xiyue was safe and sound, so she relieved herself, Xiyue's safety has always been her responsibility, if something happens to her, she is duty-bound. But thinking that she and Yunshan had chased her away, she was afraid for a while, "Miss Xiyue, although this is a deep mountain and old forest, it may be possible to hide the Wei army's fine work, even if there is no fine work, it is extremely dangerous to encounter a fierce beast, next time you must not run so far away from us alone, if you have any accidents, how can I explain to the prince?" ”

Xiyue hid something in her heart, so she only nodded in response. Yuan Mu arrived at this time with his bulky body, and while wiping his head full of sweat, he gasped and said: "Oh, my mother, Miss Xiyue, your light skills are really at stake, just a moment later, I can't stand the toss." ”

Xiyue smiled at him and said apologetically: "I just thought that Jinyun loves to eat Huangling meat, and I can't let it run away, tonight this roasted Huangling Counselor Yuan will eat a few more pieces." ”

When the four of them returned to the camp, Yan Xu had not returned, and Xiyue hid in the tent alone, looking at the small white porcelain bottle in a daze. For Yili, she had an inexplicable sense of intimacy when they met for the first time, so when Zishuo told her that Yili and her relationship with her brother and sister, she chose to believe it.

She could feel the real care and worry in Yili's eyes, and he kept comforting her not to be afraid before leaving, but he didn't know that what she was afraid of was not that she didn't remember the past, but that the more she remembered, the farther away she would be from Yan Xu. At this moment, the small porcelain bottle in her hand was like a hot charcoal fire, scorching her palms.

Should we continue to keep the status quo in confusion and pretend to stay by Yan Xu's side as if nothing happened, or should we swallow the memories of the First Yuan Danhui and make a sober decision? She longs to remember everything, but she also fears that it will be difficult for her to accept the truth when it is revealed.

The more she thought about it, the more chaotic she became, the more she thought about it, the more contradictory she became, and she didn't have to make a decision now, she simply didn't think about it anymore, hid the small porcelain bottle in her arms, took a seat of luck, and began to cultivate the fourth level of the Northern Secret Technique.

Yan Xu originally planned to rush back to the camp before dark, but the terrain of Tiger Hill was complicated, and he was a person who tried to be meticulous and cautious in doing things, so he delayed until dark before starting the return journey, but the weather changed suddenly on the way, and it was a torrential rain, and he set off after avoiding the rain, and it was the early morning of the second day when he returned to the camp.

He was especially cold on his body, as soon as he entered the tent, the cold disappeared, but the person who usually chirped and rushed up to greet him disappeared, and the tent was silent, so quiet that he was a little unaccustomed, but more of an accident.

He had a vague bad thought in his heart, and suddenly turned around and walked out of the account, "What about Yunzhu and Yunshan?" ”

Yun Wen, Yun Shan, Yun Hai, and Yun Zhu are the four leaders of Yun Wei, Yun Zhu has always taken care of Xiyue closely, and he deliberately left Yun Shan before he left yesterday to let him assist Yun Zhu. They are all his right-hand men who have followed him for many years, and they are doing things safely, but just now he entered the account all the way, but he didn't see the two of them guarding the left and right.

The two Yun Wei guarding outside the tent looked dazed, and stepped forward and said: "Hui Shizi, Miss Xiyue hunted a yellow antelope yesterday, and ate barbecue meat last night, Yunzhu and Yunshan Xu were greedy for eating too much, and they had stomach troubles, and they rested early last night, and they were replaced by two subordinates at night." ”

Yan Xumei's heart skipped a beat, and he commanded sharply: "Summoning all Yunwei immediately." ”

An hour later, Yan Xu had changed into a black dress, with a cold expression on her jade-like face, long eyebrows like ink, and bottomless eyes under her eyebrows, looking coldly at the letterhead in her hand.

Yuan Mu knelt softly in the main tent, Douda's sweat continued to drip down his forehead, he looked up at Yan Xu, who was sitting behind the pointer's platform, and his body, which was already trembling slightly, trembled even more. Behind him, there were seven or eight men lying horizontally who were about to die but were not dead, all of whom were stabbed a few times by knives, but not a single fatal one, but only slowly bled until the blood died.

After a while, Yan Xu raised his hand slightly, and the letterhead spun in mid-air, slowly falling in front of Yuan Mu, his fingers tapped lightly on the chair handle, and his voice was soft and slow, as if he was chatting about family life, "What an accident, I usually look at a gentle and virtuous woman, but my mind is so vicious." It's just that...... Although the means are ruthless, but the brain is not bright, she is so naΓ―ve, she thinks that when Xiyue is gone, I will marry her? ”

Yuan Mu only felt that his tongue was almost straight, and said in a trembling voice: "Hua, Hua, Hua Yuan is just confused for a while, she also cares too much about you, she is trapped by love and lost her heart, to, I think that you don't marry her is the reason why Yueji is there, she actually has no bad intentions, you also know her, although she is usually a little petite, in fact, she is not a vicious person, she also deliberately said that she will not hurt her life, just, just send her away." ”

The corners of Yan Xu's mouth hooked, and she seemed to agree with Yuan Mu's words, "The woman who grew up in the back of the deep palace only looked at the small profit in front of her when she encountered trouble, and when she picked a small leaf, she thought that she could also hold the towering tree in her hand. This kind of brainless and jealous woman, if she marries the prince as a concubine, how can she be a model for the harem in the future? He raised his eyebrows, and an ambiguous smile appeared on Jun's face, "By the way, hasn't Counselor Yuan always been fond of Lord Hua Yuan?" In my opinion...... She is also very depressed in the palace these days, maybe she will hook up with a forbidden court guard because of loneliness, once this reputation is broken, the queen mother will naturally not let her marry the prince again, I don't mind the beauty of adults to help Counselor Yuan a favor......"

Yuan Mu panicked in his heart, covered in cold sweat, he knew that Yan Xu would not say such a thing for no reason, since he said this, he was sure to ruin Hua Yuan's reputation, although he loved Hua Yuan, he never had the luxury of asking Hua Yuan to marry him, let alone wanting Hua Yuan to be hurt, especially this kind of reputation injury, which was more torturous than killing her directly. He lay limply on the ground, looking desperately at the man who was staring at him coldly, "Don't, don't do that to her, I say, I say." ”

When he was hunting yesterday, Yuan Mu had been looking for an opportunity to attack Xiyue. Although he lured Yun Shan and Yun Zhu away, he actually didn't think about how to attack Xiyue at all, but later Yun Zhu's words reminded him that there might really be Wei Guo's fine work hidden near this military camp, and he could use this excuse to make an article. So in the evening, when everyone was eating roasted yellow antelope, he secretly made hands and feet on the yellow antelope meat, so that their stomachs were uncomfortable and rested early, and he drugged the wine of Xiyue, and ordered several subordinates to secretly send her out of the camp.

When Yan Xu came back this morning and found that Xiyue was missing, he still pretended not to know, helped search around, and deliberately said something to confuse the public when he found suspicious details nearby, trying to lead Yan Xu to mistakenly think that Xiyue was taken away as a hostage. It's a pity that he underestimated Yan Xu and Yun Wei, as soon as Yun Zhu and Yun Shan came to their senses, they immediately remembered that Yuan Mu had pointed out the wrong direction and let them go a long way during hunting yesterday, and the suspicion turned to Yuan Mu.

Yuan Mu didn't admit it, Yan Xu immediately ordered his subordinates to be locked up, tortured and questioned one by one, but Yuan Mu's people who knew about it were all responsible for sending Xiyue away last night, and the rest didn't know about it, so that they couldn't ask why they were bled in the end.

He originally planned to die and not admit it, as long as the subordinates who were responsible for sending people away were not caught, there was no proof of death, even if he risked his life, he was unwilling to drag Hua Yuan in. It's a pity that he made a lot of calculations, but he forgot to destroy Hua Yuan's letter. He could risk his life, but he couldn't let Hua Yuan be hurt in the slightest.

"There are ten men in all, and I, I command them...... Try to go as far as possible, it is best to sell it to Chu State, Chu State Southern Barbarian Land, she is a weak woman, and she can't come back...... I, I'll give them enough silver taels to tell them not to come back when they're done......"

With a loud bang, Yan Xu raised his foot and kicked the long case in front of him, and the long case flew out, hitting Yuan Mu's chest, and flew out with his slightly chubby body, falling a few feet away. He guarded against outsiders day and night, but he didn't expect that it was the people in the nest who did the bad thing.

Yan Xu got up and slowly paced in front of Yuan Mu, who was lying on the ground foaming at the mouth of blood, and stepped on his pale and frightened face with deerskin boots, "Do you want to protect Hua Yuan?" You'd better pray to God and worship Buddha from now on, and ask the gods to bless my people to bring Xiyue back safely...... Ten deaths is not enough! The soles of his feet rotated slightly, and Yuan Mu's jawbone shattered, "As for you...... Don't worry, I won't let you die, you still have to take care of your most beloved cousin, and you have a long way to go. ”

Yuan Mu was already so remorseful that his intestines were green at this time, he shouldn't have relented and agreed to Hua Yuan in the first place, he was even more wrong because he underestimated Yan Xu's ability, and naively thought that he could cross the sea all over the world. At this moment, he desperately hoped that Xiyue could come back safely, otherwise he could be sure that the second half of Hua Yuan's life would be ruined in the hands of Yan Xu.

However, in the evening, he heard the news that made him desperate, Yunwei's men finally caught up with the men he had sent, but when they found those people, those people were already dead, a total of ten people, one is not many, the only one missing, only Xiyue. Yuan Mu fainted on the spot.

It seems that Yuan Mu's people encountered an ambush on the way to send Xiyue away, and the ambushers killed them and took Xiyue away. Yan Xu constantly sent Yun Wei and the advance army to search around, and he himself led people to the scene where the ten dead people were found to check. Yuan Mu knew that Xiyue itself had a kung fu foundation, so the people sent were not ordinary soldiers, these people had obvious traces of fighting before they died, and the wounds on their bodies were all fatal with one blow. He had wondered if it was the people of Yili or the Great Compassion Temple who had robbed Xiyue, but after seeing those wounds, he dismissed the idea. The people of the Great Compassion Temple are merciful and will never make such a ruthless move.
