Chapter 70: The Reason
Ziya snorted coldly and left, not even bothering to look at her.
Xiyan praised him, "I like it with personality!" ”
Although she said this, Qing Li knew that Xiyan would not really attack Ziya.
First, she wasn't really interested in Ziya, she just wanted to joke, and secondly, Ziya was her personal guard, and Xiyan would never come to dig her corner.
There is silence in the painting boat, and from time to time a breeze blows through the curtain, and you can vaguely see the scenery on the river.
Qing Li sat leisurely and casually, holding fragrant tea in his hand, not in a hurry to speak, so pure that he could almost fade away, as if he would float away in the river breeze in the next second.
Xiyan suddenly remembered the allusion to the Wangxian River.
Legend has it that many years ago, there was a master of the Tao when he was boating on this river, he penetrated the avenue of the world, and finally broke through to become an immortal.
Isn't it, what morality did Li also understand at this time?
Xiyan was suspicious, staring at the peaceful and smiling face, but in the eyes of the other party, he had never seen anything other than light.
Helplessly, she once again leaned back on the soft couch in a boring manner.
I have always known that Li is an indifferent and indifferent person, and there are only a few people who can make her take it to heart, and this trip must be for that Jingxuan!
Xi Yan yawned a little sleepily, took off a string of prayer beads on his wrist to play with, and said casually: "Li, if you don't say anything about me, I'm going to go back." "Do you really think you have nothing to do all day?
Qing Li smiled lightly and tilted his head to look at her casually. "Didn't you guess? The purpose of my trip. ”
Picking up a piece of mung bean cake in front of him, Qing Li took a bite, sweet but not greasy. Soft and crunchy, you know she'll enjoy it!
Xi Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he snorted coldly, "You're so sure that I will help you!" ”
Wujimen sells news for a living, and the information it gets is indeed reliable and accurate, but not every news will be sold, such as what Li wants now......
"You will." Qing Li said with a smile.
Since she provided drug resources. From the moment Xiyan was promoted from a girl who was chased by the clan to the position of the master of the Wuji Gate, they were already united.
Over the years, Xiyan has helped her a lot, even if it is difficult. In the end, they will all compromise.
Everyone in the world knows that today's Wuji Gate Master is not close to people, but in fact, she is the most important person. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the grace of dripping water that springs to reciprocate, not to mention that what she gave to Xiyan is a life-saving grace......
Xiyan gritted her teeth. Stared at the breezy woman.
This woman. will always grasp the most critical point and let everyone work for her!
If others dared to do this to her, they would have known what to do with her! But for Qing Li, she always had some awe.
No one knows what kind of posture Qing Li will appear in the next second, and how peaceful and gentle he will be frightening. It's like the battle for the master three years ago, if there is no help from Lai. She's been dead a thousand times a long time ago!
Turning his head aside, Xiyan sighed heavily. "If you ask me to do this kind of errand in the future, I will definitely ignore you!"
Qing Li held back the smile on the corner of his mouth and slowly spit out: "Okay." "Say that every time, and not every time you are willing to help her?
In fact, she doesn't want to be embarrassed, but there are some things that she really has no heart for.
Xiyan straightened his color, got up and sat in front of Qing Li, frowning slightly, "What you want to ask is the reason why Xichuan chose Hua Manlou, and his intention to implicate the Jing family." ”
Nodding, Qing Li waited for her next step, but saw that Xiyan suddenly pouted, very disdainful, "Where does he Gu Shaojue want to involve the Jing family, his purpose will not be so simple." ”
After a pause, Xiyan looked at Qing Li's eyes, and suddenly hooked his lips and smiled, "Now the stronghold that has been exposed is Huamanlou, and next, it will be Jiuhua True Flavor Pavilion, popular rice shop, and ...... Nanshu Wine Workshop! ”
Every word is loud, every time Xiyan says a shop, Qing Li's face is a little gloomy, until the last one says it, Qing Li finally understands a little.
The Jing family's Huamanlou, the Duan family's Jiuhua True Flavor Restaurant, the Lu family's popular rice shop, and the Qing family's Nanshu Wine Workshop!
If these strongholds are exposed one after another, when the time comes, all the four major families will fall, and the ink economy will be almost paralyzed!
Without such livelihood protection, no matter how macro deployment is made, it will be difficult to achieve results in the short term. The people are complaining, the court is in chaos, Xichuan is eyeing the tiger, and under the internal and external troubles, the future of ink painting is worrying!
Seeing Qing Li's shocked expression, Xi Yan knew that she had figured it out.
This is originally a matter between countries, but her Wuji Gate belongs to the rivers and lakes. The Jianghu court has always been that the well water does not interfere with the river water, and she will never deliberately investigate those matters between the royal family, so as not to offend others. That's why Qing Li was so embarrassed when she asked about it!
Qing Li pursed his lips and thought about it, a little extremely puzzled, "Since Xichuan has been hiding in ink for so many years and has not moved, why has he made such a big move recently?" "There doesn't seem to be any conditional factor that directly contributes to interests, why is he in such a hurry?
Xi Yan raised her forehead, knowing that she would ask more deeply! I can't make it clear today!
Stretching out two fingers, Xi Yan gestured: "Two reasons." First, more than 40 years ago, Haoyue ink painting had a political marriage, which was also considered an ally, but now that the battle for Haoyue's throne is intensifying, if Xichuan makes a move on ink at this time, Haoyue will not help him, so this is the weakest moment of ink painting. This second ......"
After a pause, the thief laughed, "The second reason is because of Ling Yichen!" ”
It's him? "Why?" Qing Li blurted out subconsciously, not even realizing that there was anything wrong.
Xi Yan smiled, it turned out that Li's mood was also affected by someone......
Deliberately procrastinating not to answer, Xiyan was satisfied to see that Qing Li's eyebrows were getting deeper and deeper. Finally, she still didn't let her continue to be uneasy, and Xi Yan smiled: "After you got married, didn't the prince take the order to investigate Xichuan's spies?" That's when the grass startled the snake! ”
Ling Yichen knew very well what Gu Shaojue was capable of, and let him investigate, his years of deployment would fall short sooner or later! Since this is the case, it is natural to act in advance, not to mention that the time is ripe at this moment......
Xiyan laughed, "Speaking of which, your dear husband is really unlucky!" Approaching Qing Li's side like offering a treasure, Xi Yan teased: "Do you remember what Ling Yichen has been investigating about Emperor Min Chen of the previous dynasty?" ”
was still embarrassed by her sentence of "kissing her husband", and suddenly heard Xiyan talk about Emperor Chen, Qing Li was stunned.
She even found all of that? How many people are arranged?
Ignoring Qing Li's suspicious eyes, Xi Yan said happily to herself, "The person who broke into the library to steal the file was not from Xichuan at all, but an illusion deliberately forged by Ling Qianmo. Your family accepted this errand, but it turned out to be the real Xichuan spies, isn't it unlucky? ”
Xiyan laughed regardless of the image, leaning back and forth for a while, and was extremely happy. A simple trick by others turned a group of pretentious people around, and the third prince is also a character!
Qing Li's brain short-circuited for a while, and when he thought about what Xi Yan had just said, his face slowly changed.
She remembered that Ling Yichen had mentioned to her that the black-clothed people who had been burglarized in the Library Pavilion were all wearing thick-soled riding boots, and she also felt strange at that time, why Xichuan's spies were so careless!
But it turned out that the people were not from Xichuan at all, but were sent by the three princes to confuse the public!
Therefore, Ling Yichen was ordered to track down Xichuan's spies, which inadvertently aroused Gu Shaojue's vigilance, and only then did the Criminal Department break into the spies and be arrested, commit suicide by taking mandala poison, and a series of accidents such as Hua Manlou......
The source of a qiē turned out to be just a trick of the three princes to "plant blame"?
The corners of Qing Li's mouth twitched, and he felt that something was not quite right, "Then the treasures of the Flower and Emperor Min on the other side, and Yan Yitian showed me a piece of Heavenly Silkworm Cloud Brocade, these are all fake?" ”
Xiyan spread his palms, "I don't know about Emperor Ming's treasure and the flowers on the other side, it is said that it is written in the dossier, there is no way to verify whether it is true or false, and it is also a piece of silkworm cloud brocade......"
"Li, you are so smart, why can't you turn the corner at this time?" She covered her mouth and smiled for a moment, "Although the Heavenly Silkworm Cloud Brocade is rare, it is not nothing, and it is not difficult to forge a piece at will!" That statement was clearly communicated with Ling Qianmo, but it was just to increase the credibility of this matter! ”
After all, with Qing Li to confirm that the six princes of Haoyue also had the intention of probing the treasure, this Xichuan also coveted the treasure and then broke into the library pavilion! Gradually, the follow-up development is logical.
To say that Ling Qianmo's purpose at the beginning was probably just to want Xichuan to make some trouble, and under the conditions of external troubles, he could make some peace in the court, and then take the opportunity to get rid of the prince and take the heir himself.
But he probably didn't expect that Gu Shaojue was a ruthless character, and making such a big move at one time completely disrupted his original plan.
The imagination is very beautiful, but the reality is very cruel, and he is a smart person!
Xiyan shook her head speechlessly.
If these people can come together, why should a country worry? But they all want to be the supreme commander, but they are unwilling to be in a safe corner, so they have a lot of moths.
Qing Li couldn't have imagined that he had already become a pawn in someone else's game!
Seeing Xiyan's clear look, she couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Is this a fan of the authorities and a clear observer?
Fortunately, now that the ins and outs have been figured out, if you want to get Jing Xuan out, you can only break these Xichuan strongholds one by one and wash away his suspicions.
At that time, without these chess pieces that could be manipulated, Gu Shaojue couldn't do anything more! (To be continued......)
