Akiba Bai looked at the movements of the snow slave, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a trace of cold fire flashed under his eyes.

"Aze, are you so picky in the Shingon Palace, I don't know."

Xue Nu sneered: "With a despicable person like you, the national teacher can only be reluctant." ”

Autumn leaves were white but smiled silently, and Yuan Ze glanced at Xue Nu and said lightly: "How can the deity have any special joy, no matter how carefully prepared the things are, in the end it is just a meal and a bedroom." ”

With that, he withdrew his hand from her arms.

Xue Nu felt empty in his arms, and his heart was also empty, and he looked at Yuan Ze with some grievance: "National teacher, Xue Nu has served you for many years, why are you so close and distant?" ”

As she spoke, she glanced at Akiba Bai hatefully.

Yuan Ze said lightly: "Xue Nu, the rules in the palace are strict, you and I are both from the palace, it's best not to exceed the rules, not to mention whether men and women are kissed or not." ”

Xue Nu's face was blue and white for a while, he bit his lip, bowed his head respectfully, and folded his hands: "Yes, obey the oracle." ”

As soon as Xue Nu's words fell, he saw Qiu Yebai suddenly open his arms and said to Yuan Ze: "If you want to say goodbye, Aze would like me to hug me?" ”

When Xue Nu heard this, he immediately raised his head, looked at Autumn Leaf White sneeringly, and said contemptuously: "It's up to you, and you're worthy of ......." ”

Before she finished speaking, Yuan Ze had not hesitated at all to raise his hand and gently hold Qiu Yebai, and said softly: "Little white donor, there will be a period later." ”

Autumn leaves did not restrain at all, only glanced at Xue Nu's green face from Yuan Ze's shoulder, and smiled: "There will be a period later, Aze." ”

As she spoke, she reached out and grabbed his slender waist, and simply made a hug motion, which looked like a clean, neat, and beautiful hug without a trace of impurities from Yuan Ze's point of view.

But......

Akiba Bai showed a smiling expression towards Xue Nu, and the hand holding Motozawa's waist was slightly staggered and buckled on his back, this gesture looked like an intimate hug gesture.

She has never been stingy about giving a letharsh dismount to a tiresome provocateur.

Xue Nu's face instantly turned blue, his light brown eyes glared at Autumn Leaf Bai viciously, and two green tendons burst out from the back of his white hand holding the knife at the bottom of his sleeve.

Qiu Yebai looked at Xue Nu's expression as if she had been stabbed twice in her heart, and she had calmed down a little because of Yuan Ze's bad mood of leaving and a good Mid-Autumn Festival night tour being ruined.

She let go of her hand, looked at Yuan Ze and nodded: "I'll go back." ”

Yuan Ze nodded, watching Akiba Bai turn around and go back to the boat, the people of the Hidden Sword Pavilion on several ships didn't know where they got the news, they were all already standing on the side of the boat in full gear, and there were many people on the side of the boat with longbows in their hands, aiming at the shore with murderous energy.

The big ship that had safely picked up his group immediately set sail and continued to move towards the dark front.

Yuan Ze stood quietly on the shore, watching the figure on the bow of the boat getting smaller and smaller, and gradually disappearing into the night, he sighed softly: "Go back to the palace." ”

"Yes!" Xue Nu immediately nodded respectfully, his eyes swept over the silver shadow of the ship in the distance, and a gloomy and cold color flashed in his eyes.

…… Lao Tzu is a troublemaker, and Guoguo is the shameless dividing line between the innocent and innocent best partner of the crane prison and the shameless dividing line between robbery and getting rich......

Two months later

Autumn is crisp, early in the morning, the warm sun is scattered in a mountain village near Yunzhong County, the capital of Jiangzhong Province, the emerald green leaves on the water droplets glow with crystal light, and the distant fields waft to mix with the aroma of earth and grass.

It was another sunny and good day.

The small village is contrary to the usual tranquility, lively and extraordinary, and there are people everywhere who are beating gongs and drums, shouting everywhere: "It's started, it's started, the final of the big wilderness village dog race is about to start, and look at the world's first evil - Da Chun and the world's first fat - the wonderful duel of the fat dragon, buy and leave, buy and leave, leave the hand to buy, and there is no bet!" ”

The sound of gongs and drums grew louder and louder as they passed by one of the largest houses in the village.

"Bang!"

Xiao Qi finally couldn't help but throw the window shut directly, and said depressedly to Qiu Yebai, who was writing a letter: "I said, Si Shao, do you just let Da Zhuang and Chuanzi make noise everywhere with this broken gong all day long, last night it was easier for the three to be quiet, and early this morning, it was like a conjuring spirit, and let people not live!" ”

Akiba Bai blew the letter in his hand to let the ink dry quickly, and said casually: "I promised them, if they pass the second round of the assessment, let them play a game of greyhound racing and relax." ”

Xiao Qi was depressed: "Si Shao, can you toss a little more serious assessment, we have so many masters in the Hidden Sword Pavilion who train them in light skills and martial arts, not so that they can carry forward the stealing of chickens and dogs, you don't know that Qin Yun and a few of their hall masters are about to vomit blood every time they assess those gentlemen!" ”

He has always known that the master of his family is a player who does not play cards according to the rules, but this time it is really too much to play!

Si Shao poured out his own elite to train a lot of people to watch the wind department, and everyone originally felt that although it was not easy to train people, after all, most of the people who watched the wind department were already adults, and the bone meridians were already hard.

But since they have become teachers, and their own pavilion master has said, whoever can bring people out will be rewarded with good meals cooked by the pavilion master himself!

Who in the pavilion doesn't know the craftsmanship of Autumn Leaf White, and the delicacy that the pavilion owner can make is more desirable than any gold and silver treasure.

But I didn't expect that Qiu Yebai's decision surprised everyone, in addition to requiring the gentlemen to sit down well every day to climb the mountain and carry water to meditate and cultivate the things that consolidate the foundation of the body, for the martial arts, the elites of the Hidden Sword Pavilion are required to carefully teach according to each person's strength, and it is not required that they must not practice a fixed palm or fist technique, but only to be able to protect themselves and escape, even if they can practice some body techniques in order to drill the dog hole faster, it is also good.

Although the elites felt that it was a little awkward for the people taught by the Hidden Sword Pavilion to learn the skills of escaping from the dog cave, they still taught them according to their aptitude and could barely understand it.

Since then, Autumn Leaf White has also used his relationship to get some strange characters from the rivers and lakes who have not seen the head and the end of the dragon to come out to train the gentlemen, this time it is all kinds of things, and there is everything.

What is the 'money claw', what is the 'cave fairy', what is the 'old man who passes through the sky', what is the 'gambling fairy'...... In short, just listening to those names makes people understand that these are the ninth-rate goods on the rivers and lakes.

The money claw is the top thief; The cave fairy is the thief who is the best at digging holes and picking flowers, and it is said that he almost stole the concubine of the emperor's majesty; Tongtian Lao Weng is playing tricks, pretending to be a god and pretending to be a fairy to fool people with money; Needless to say, gambling immortals, of course, gambling made fraud famous and was ordered to be chased and killed; Even the notorious ghost head stable, who specializes in stealing good horses from various gates of the rivers and lakes, has been invited...... All sorts of strange gods came to teach the gentlemen.

This also allowed the people of the Tibetan Sword Pavilion to see that Qiu Yebai followed the former pavilion master Lao Xian all over the rivers and lakes in the past, and the breadth of his travels.

According to their own interests, they must be proficient in one and take several at the same time, but as long as they are elective, they must participate in the assessment of the subject, mainly based on the main score, supplemented by the score of the minor subject, and the three people who score the bottom of each score are unqualified.

The coke is bad now, all of them are interested, and those people's methods are much better than theirs, and Akibabai requires a round of assessment every ten years, and those who fail the assessment will not be useful for a week, and at the same time, they don't have to study anymore, just play in the house for a week.

Originally, the gentlemen didn't care, where is it called punishment, it is clearly play!

But soon they understood the pain of not being qualified, because the subjects were so 'interesting' and 'challenging', and most of them worked hard and spontaneously, so that when the 'gods' were in class, none of the three who could not attend the class could come to the room and talk to them.

Even if someone comes to talk after class, the other party's eyebrows flutter and say what eyes have been opened today, and what strange skills he has learned, so that people who have not attended classes at all are confused, and by the way, their hearts are itchy, but they can only listen, and they can't talk at all, and they can only envy on the side.

No one speaks, and when you speak, your heart is not happy, so it's better to sleep.

But after sleeping like this for seven days, those few who didn't go to class found that they almost fell asleep, dizzy and suffocated all day, and they all secretly swore that they wouldn't do this kind of thing to hang their tails next time!

In addition to practicing the basic skills of martial arts in the morning and evening, the gentlemen learned extremely hard with these ninth-rate masters, to the point of forgetting to sleep and eat!

What's more, the assessment is also extremely interesting, from the very beginning, the single assessment in the hands of the 'gods and goddesses', such as stealing, such as changing the eye, such as gambling, such as soma taming dogs, such as digging holes and stealing incense.

Of course, stealing incense is naturally the 'incense' of the gentlemen who look at the wind department.

By the middle of the second month, the subjects were shifting to cooperative operations...... Although Xiao Qi thinks it's more appropriate to use a partnership to do bad things.

For example, in the middle of the second month, the question of the examination was to go to the official treasury of Yunzhong County to steal the official silver, and then he had to find a way to destroy all the official seals, quietly put it into the silver village, and exchange it for copper coins to be distributed to the people in the slums.

Xiao Qi felt that if this was called robbing the rich and helping the poor, then this assessment would be a bit lacking in morality.

actually stole the sixth aunt of General Lu's family in the middle of the night, and then sent her to the bed of the general's eldest young master without knowing it, framed the two of them, and spread the news all over the streets.

Those ninth-rate gods and lakes are naturally happy to watch the show when they look at their apprentices, but this kind of thing, Xiao Qi can't think of what the use is even if he breaks his head.

"You elm pimple, where can you compare with Si Shao, and don't disturb Si Shao here!" A voice as crisp as a yellow oriole sounded by the door.

Ning Qiu was carrying a food box and came in from outside the door, and she happened to hear Xiao Qi's words as if she was complaining about Qiu Yebai, and she immediately laughed at Xiao Qi unceremoniously.

"It's not just that I don't understand, but even the hall masters of the Qinglong Hall and the White Tiger Hall don't understand either, we are the Tibetan Sword Pavilion with a transcendent status in the rivers and lakes, if it is spread out, let's teach these gentlemen to do some things like chickens and dogs, what will the people of the rivers and lakes think of us!" Xiao Qi muttered unconvinced.

Ning Qiu narrowed his eyes: "What, when will our Hidden Sword Pavilion still act according to the eyes of the Jianghu sect, the reason why the Hidden Sword Pavilion has the Hidden Sword Pavilion today is because the position is never good or evil, don't you know?" ”

Xiao Qi was a little dumbfounded, but he couldn't help but say, "This is different......." ”

"What's the difference?" Qiu Yebai suddenly spoke, and while she slowly folded the letter, she said leisurely: "Is it the people from the White Tiger Hall and the Qinglong Hall who can't figure it out, and instigate you, the stunned Qing, to ask me?" ”

Presumably, these guys under her have been holding back these doubts in their hearts for a long time, and then they feel that Xiao Qi is a close attendant who follows her all the year round, and she will not blame her too much if she says the wrong thing.

Xiao Qi's face turned red all of a sudden, and he said hesitantly: "That...... That one...... The brethren ...... in their hearts. ”

Qiu Yebai took his words lightly: "I know that you don't look down on the Fat Dragon in your hearts, but Xiao Qi, don't forget that the Qinglong Hall and the White Tiger Hall have only sent a few good hands who are better at regulating people, except for you, Ning Dong and Ning Qiu, who I serve closely, no one knows the relationship between these gentlemen and me, and the rat and the fat dragon They don't let alone know what the Hidden Sword Pavilion is." ”

Now the rat and the fat dragon have always thought that these masters around her are the martial artists she borrowed from her friends.

"I need rats and fat dragons to be able to take charge of themselves after they follow me back to the capital, and even take down the entire celebrant for me, they are not useless, although you escorted the old partridge to leave Huainan first to avoid the limelight, but you should also hear from the baby and others that they forced His Royal Highness Regency and the Crane Supervisor to take a step back in Huainan."

Even though he was poked several times by Ning Qiu's knife-like gaze, Xiao Qi couldn't help but mutter: "So what, the mud can't be on the wall, it's not that someone else has put them a yard, if it is our people from the Sword Pavilion, it is not a matter of forcing them to take a step back." ”

Qiu Yebai raised his eyebrows and smiled: "What you said is not wrong, they are mud, I don't expect them to paste the wall, what I want is to let the mud play their greatest role, such as becoming a mud swamp can swallow people alive." ”

Fat dragons and rats were originally chickens and dogs, if you expect them to practice peerless martial arts with the help of gods, just like the master of ceremonies who killed gods in the charm department of the Zhenwu Emperor era, it is better to expect them to be reincarnated quickly.

However, what they did in Huainan that day made her see another kind of power - the power of a 'crooked and evil way'.

The disciples of the market and the cleverness of the people of the market, and the background of these gentlemen in the Ministry of Wind is not low, so their vision is naturally different from that of ordinary people in the market, but they have been mixed with the folk all the year round, but they have learned thoroughly those cleverness and tricks that are not in the stream.

These two points make them destined to be different from ordinary market people, just like when she was in Huainan, she just wanted to hit them hard and make them hurt, so that she could reshape them, but they went off the rails in the confrontation with the Crane Supervisor, but she was extremely surprised, this bias may not be a perfect trick, but it is absolutely wonderful!

So she changed her initial plan and directly decided to follow it completely - teach them according to their aptitude to the end, the people who watch the wind department are all adults, and the youngest Xiaolou is also sixteen years old, and the plasticity is already too weak, so she simply cultivates their strengths that are not in the stream and are looked down upon into the first-class and ultimate in the stream!

Besides, there was no better teacher than interest, so they made rapid progress as she expected.

"If you do anything to the extreme, you will become the most prominent point in a person." Ning Qiu said thoughtfully.

Xiao Qi thought about it, and couldn't help but ask: "But the four young people, even if they have learned the ultimate in cockfighting, stealing, and even fighting crickets, what about it, can they challenge the other two departments of the celebrant with these?" ”

Qiu Yebai said lightly: "Xiao Qi, do you know what kind of existence the essence of the celebrant is?" ”

Xiao Qi hesitated for a while: "It's a spy." ”

And it is a very annoying spies, but people dare not provoke them, monitoring the government and the opposition everywhere.

Qiu Yebai smiled and nodded his heart: "That's right, an excellent spy needs to face people who are up and down the ninth, and it is not just that martial arts are enough, but that he needs a heart that is delicate and flexible and changeable, and he is not ashamed." ”

Xiao Qi was a little dazed, but in his heart, he felt that what his four young people said was very reasonable.

Qiu Yebai looked at him with a confused look, chuckled and flicked his forehead with his fingertips: "This is not what you should think, you just have to tell the people of the Qinglong Hall and the White Tiger Hall, don't treat the gentlemen as their disciples, because they have never been the masters of the gentlemen, they are just a task to perform under my orders, and no one in the rivers and lakes will know about it." ”

She paused and continued: "As for the task I asked them to perform, naturally I have a reason, and you will understand in the future, General Lu is not a good thing, the last time there was a locust plague in the clouds, the imperial court allocated most of the funds by him and the prefect of the clouds, he is such a son, since his son likes his father's concubine to death, and it is not the first time that the two of them sleep in the same bed, I am just a rare kind to fulfill a pair of wild mandarin ducks, and by the way, try whether the gentlemen have the ability to sneak into the heavily guarded military attache mansion It's just a matter of stealing people. ”

Xiao Qi understood this, and nodded, presumably the hearts of the people in the Qinglong Hall and the White Tiger Hall would also be relaxed.

He hesitated for a while, but continued: "They have been tossing and turning for three days in that dog fighting conference, and all the good dogs in Yunzhong County have been stolen by them, which has alarmed the prefect of Yunzhong. ”

"If you show your stuffing, you will show your stuffing, that is also a lesson for them, arrogance, and acting without prudence and thoughtfulness are not good fruits, and they will even lose their lives." Autumn leaves didn't seem to be worried at all, and handed the letter in his hand to Xiao Qi.

"Let people out."

Xiao Qi knew that this was Qiu Yebai, and he would communicate with the capital every ten years to determine what the situation in the capital was now.

After all, she was supposed to solve the case within three months by the overseer of the ceremony, Zheng Jun, and now that it is about to expire, she not only got the account book and witnesses, but also sneaked out of the Mei family's net with the people from the wind department, I don't know what further arrangements the bigwigs in the capital want to prepare for the team, so the news must be kept smooth.

As soon as he received the letter, he went out.

"Si Shao, the other end of the book recently replied that what is the situation in the capital?" Ning Qiu naturally knew that Qiu Yebai would soon have to go back before the deadline for solving the case, otherwise she would be questioned and imprisoned, and secondly, the Wind Department would also be disbanded, so all the four young people's efforts would be in vain these days.

Qiu Yebai groaned: "The Book of Heaven said that it was quite calm, and I didn't hear any special changes, except that the national teacher recently presided over a ceremony to pray for rain. ”

Then, sure enough, on the second day of the festival, dark clouds covered and nectar fell from the sky, alleviating the heat and drought of autumn in the capital, and the prestige of the national teacher and Shingon Palace was greatly improved again.

Ning Qiu naturally knew that the national teacher was Yuan Ze, and while laying out the morning for Qiu Ye Baijiang, he said: "I think Yuan Ze is not the kind of person who is two-faced and three-stabbed, if the fourth young man encounters something that he can't solve in the capital, he might as well go and find the national teacher, I can't say that I can help anything." ”

She knew that she couldn't follow Qiu Yebai to the capital for the time being, and this time the four young people were going to leave, although she was sad in her heart, she could only try her best to plan for Qiu Yebai.

Qiu Yebai nodded, picked up a glutinous rice dumpling and sent it into Ning Qiu's bowl, and gently comforted Ning Qiu, who looked gloomy: "It's okay, if you really miss Qiu'er, it's not impossible to go to the capital to play." ”

Anyway, after she set off, the Hidden Sword Pavilion had to act in a low-key manner and enter the shadows thoroughly, so as not to be affected by her next things, and the people in the sect also entered the period of activities in the shadows, so there would not be too many things.

When Ning Qiu heard this, his eyes widened with joy: "Is it really possible?" ”

Akiba Bai nodded with a smile: "Naturally." ”

……*……*……*……*……

Capital

In the elegant inner hall of the Autumn Wind Pavilion, a middle-aged beautiful woman wearing an indigo embroidered Baifu silk gown, wearing a little emerald and gorgeous, and delicate eyebrows was quietly leaning on the old bamboo couch to close her eyes and recuperate, and the big palace maid on one side was fanning her.

A Mama Dong came in with an ice bowl and opened the curtain: "Queen Mother Lafayette, this is the lotus seed bird's nest ice bowl you want." ”

The Queen Mother opened her eyes and nodded: "Come here, this is the stuffiness of the sky, and the tiger is really annoying this autumn." ”

That Mama Dong glanced at the wind blowing outside, and secretly muttered in her heart, I am afraid that there is something in your heart that makes you feel that this year is not cooler than in previous years. “

But she still had a smile on her face, and stepped forward to serve the Queen Mother while saying with a soft smile: "After the last time the National Teacher prayed for rain, I saw that God has also had a few autumn rains recently, and it must be cool soon. “

Hearing Mama Dong mention Yizheng, the Queen Mother paused when she ate the ice bowl, and sneered lightly: "Lao Luo is a blind person, do you also want to help him bully the mourning family, this is not allowed to eat, that is not allowed to eat, they are all human beings, He Zeng is so squeamish." “

Mama Dong sighed in her heart and said with a smile: "They are all people, but Lafayette, you are the master, we are slaves, this is a big difference, your mother is the world, and naturally the stomach is more delicate." “

The Queen Mother snorted coldly: "Mother in the world? It is the master of Kunyi Palace who really should be the mother of the world, but now people want to be a good wife and mother, eat fasting and pray for the Buddha for their husbands, where can they still take care of the world. “

Mama Dong hesitated for a moment, and then explained: "Don't be angry, Lafayette, the queen mother is your niece after all, and she is still afraid of it now...... The knot of things. “

To put it bluntly, when the current queen was still a concubine, she did a bad thing with the former queen, and when she saw that the previous queen had to die well, she was old and worried in her heart, and she didn't dare to compete for favor by any means as she used to be a concubine. "The mourning family said that Qingyu is not as good as her sister Qingxin, how can the daughter of the Du family be so useless, how many years has Concubine Chen's little fox been dead, Qingxin just died of smallpox, what does it have to do with Concubine Chen, she is good, she just attributed this life-and-death matter to Concubine Chen, and her family was so scared that she ate fasting and chanting Buddha all day long, and she didn't even care about the harem."

When the Queen Mother mentioned this, her brain hurt, and she couldn't help throwing the tea bowl in her hand: "Qingxin died of illness back then, and the mourning family looked at her and looked a little bit like a favorite concubine, and she was Qingxin's sister, so she was raised to be the queen, who knew that it was such a useless one, in the end, it was a concubine, and if she knew this, the mourning family should find another good one from the Du family's daughter-in-law, and it can also cage the emperor's heart!" “

This harem has always been the queen mother's world, where is the queen mother's mother.

This is something that everyone knows, but how dare Mama Dong say this, she only tries to appease the Queen Mother, so as not to annoy her, and none of them will end well. "Queen Mother, when Lord Yizheng gave you the pulse of peace this morning, he said that you can't be angry, and when Lord Yizheng came over tonight, you were annoyed when you saw Lafayette, wouldn't you want to blame the slave again?"

Mama Dong comforted her bitterly, and sure enough, after mentioning the medical center, the anger on the queen mother's face stiffened, and then slowly eased, and after using the bird's nest in the last ice bowl, she suddenly said: "Yes, when it comes to the national teacher, the mourning family thinks that maybe there are some things to discuss with the national teacher in advance." “

Mama Dong looked at the Queen Mother's expression and was suddenly startled: "You want to see the national teacher...... What do you mean? “

The Queen Mother took the Longjing tea handed by the palace maid on the side, rinsed her mouth, and said lightly: "That's right, the country can't be without a queen, and it's time to make a prince, even if the emperor is not in good health, how can a country's government always grasp it in the hands of a princess, and An Neng will not let the world criticize?" “

They were all her henchmen, and she wasn't worried that what she said would leak out.

Mama Dong hesitated for a while: "Didn't you discuss this matter with the lamplighter and come up with the result?" “

The national teacher has always been a fireworks, and he doesn't like to see people, and the queen mother figured out what the national teacher did, and most of them were to let the lamplighter convey the requirements.

The Queen Mother shook her head, and her eyes flashed: "This matter is very important, the national teacher is no longer the little reincarnated spirit child who was powerless and powerless and at the mercy of others. “

Mama Dong nodded and said respectfully: "Slave maid, let people go to the Qintianjian Temple to spread the word." “

The Queen Mother suddenly remembered something, and a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes: "Yes, has Zheng Jun found that kid from the Qiu family?" “

Mama Dong thought about the report she had compiled yesterday and shook her head: "Governor Zheng said that he has stepped up the secret search, and he has clues, and he thinks there will be results soon." "Zheng Jun's old boy said every time that there are clues, there are clues, which time is not a waste of time, the three-month investigation period is coming, if the Qiu family boy comes back, what will be the consequences, he is afraid that ten heads are not enough to cut off the mourning family."

The Queen Mother couldn't help but say angrily, and slapped the sandalwood carved and gold-clad table: "Su Er was injured in the hands of the boy of the Qiu family, the mourning family will never allow him to step into the capital alive, and the mourning family does not plan to search secretly, and immediately sent an official document to Zheng Jun to arrest the sea, and treat the boy of the Qiu family for the crime of colluding with bandits to loot the tribute boat. “

When Mama Dong heard this, she nodded respectfully and said, "Yes." “

……

Qin Tianjian Temple: "Your Highness, I heard that the Queen Mother has ordered Zheng Jun to send an official document to catch the sea!" Shuangbai suddenly strode into the beautiful temple, facing the man who was reading a book boringly.
