Xuan Pei's expression changed suddenly, he was so shocked that he took a few steps back, and then his expression changed drastically, as if he was happy and sad, Xiao Shao took in his expression, and slowly frowned.

After a while, Xuan Pei finally came back to his senses from the entanglement, he looked at Xiao Shao, and Xiao Shao suddenly gave birth to an illusion, as if the person standing in front of him was not an immature teenager, but an old man with vicissitudes. The corners of Xuan Pei's curved lips seemed to be relieved, and it seemed to be a wry smile. He looked at Xiao Shao and said slowly, "I want to meet her." ”

Xiao Shao replied in a low voice, "Okay." ”

"Bright moon, rising sun." Xuan Pei suddenly called out loudly, and the two palace maids guarding the door hurriedly came in, Xuan Pei looked at him, and his tone became extremely cold for a moment: "I want to go out of the palace, before I return to the palace, I will do everything possible to keep this matter." ”

"Your Highness can't," as soon as he heard this, Chaoyang said eagerly: "It's a big deal to be found out of the palace without permission, if Your Majesty interrogates you...... How many people in the palace are staring at you, but you can't send the handle up yourself. ”

"Am I the master or are you the master?" Xuan Pei asked rhetorically: "If you can't even do this thing, you won't be better than staying by my side." "There was no room for negotiation at all. Chaoyang suddenly remembered that the young man in front of him had also looked at the personal palace maid who had been by his side for more than ten years with a cane in front of him, and he had never been an ordinary teenager. At this moment, his tone was cold, which made Chaoyang shiver, and he was intimidated by such cruel eyes, and he could no longer speak.

Xiao Shao looked at it coldly on the side, and quietly glanced at Mingyue, and when Mingyue saw it, she said to Xuan Pei: "Your Highness, don't worry, the slaves and maids in the palace will take care of it." "Today's Xuanpei leaving the palace, in the end, is also due to Xiao Shao, Xiao Shao can't stand by and watch, not to mention that it seems that Xuanpei has a lot of relationship with Jiang Ruan, and he can't let Xuanpei suffer because of this matter.

His palace maid obeyed other people's orders, Xuan Pei sneered, grabbed the cloak from the side, and said, "Let's go." ”

……

In the Jinying Palace, Xia Qing had just checked Jiang Ruan's pulse, and she who had drunk medicine always calmed down early this morning and fell asleep. It's just that everyone in the palace has no intention of sleeping, and their eyes are blue. Xia Qing, as a doctor, racked his brains to detoxify Jiang Ruan, but his medical skills were helpless after a night of study, not to mention Jiang Xinzhi, who accompanied Jiang Ruan all night yesterday, although he didn't know what Lu Dao heard from Jiang Ruan, everyone saw his face today, and it was very gloomy, as if he had aged ten years overnight.

Qi Feng was sitting at the gate of the courtyard, with Guan Lianghan and Mo Cong by his side. Guan Lianghan said: "This Jiang family girl looks at such a lively tiger on weekdays, and her scheming is very within her reach, and she doesn't know where she is." was just a little girl at the beginning, how could someone be so ruthless as to attack a little girl? "He is a gentleman and frank, and it is disgusting to talk about these backyard pickles.

Mo Cong has always looked at Jiang Ruan and was a little uneasy, but now he is also quite uncomfortable: "Although I used to think that the third sister-in-law was too strong as a woman, but compared to asking her to lie on the bed so pitiful now, I would rather her be as arrogant as before." He looked at Qi Feng on the side and said, "Fourth brother, why do you look at such a soulless person?" ”

Qi Feng came back to his senses and smiled bitterly: "I'm fine." ”

Seeing this, Xia Qing patted him on the shoulder comfortingly: "I know that with your intelligence, you can't see who the third sister-in-law has suffered, and you have to blame yourself." But I don't blame you for this, maybe the fifth brother will be able to dispense the antidote today, don't be sad. ”

Qi Feng smiled and didn't speak. Xia Qing didn't know what he was thinking, but just looked at Jiang Ruan lying on the bed with a pale face, listening to her heart-pounding words, Qi Feng only felt shocked again. He never liked women crying and crying, and he admired Jiang Ruan before because of her courage. However, when he accidentally saw Jiang Ruan's sad questioning yesterday, he also felt pain in his heart and wanted to comfort her, but he could only watch from afar. He hated himself for being powerless and unable to do anything to help.

Everyone was thinking about their own thoughts, and if they didn't want to, they saw Steward Lin hurriedly walking towards this side with Xiao Shao, and there was a person behind Xiao Shao. Everyone is a little strange, at this juncture, Xiao Shao is still bringing people to the palace, aren't you afraid of getting more and more chaotic? Look at the person who followed Xiao Shao, dressed in brocade clothes and not tall, and when he got closer, he revealed a delicate and beautiful face, as if he was the little son of a family. Inexplicably, it looks familiar.

"Your Highness the Thirteenth!" Mo Cong shouted first, he looked at Xiao Shao, then at Xuan Pei, and said, "Third brother, why did you call His Highness the Thirteenth Out?" He has a free-spirited temperament, and the first thing that comes to mind is not the trouble that Xuan Pei may bring when he leaves the palace without permission. It's just that I'm wondering, Jiang Ruan has an accident, what did he do to call Xuan Pei. Xuan Pei and Xiao Shao can't remember any friendship, and as for Jiang Ruan, it is even more impossible to have anything to do with Xuan Pei.

"You go in." Xiao Shao said to Xuan Pei: "She's inside." ”

Xuan Pei glanced at him and said, "Thank you." This eye was full of all kinds of complex emotions, and the people around him saw it in a fog, but they also felt that this did not seem to be a conversation between an adult man and a teenager, but a commitment between men and men in an equal position.

After Xuan Pei entered, Guan Lianghan finally couldn't help but say, "Third child, what the hell are you doing, what are you calling the Thirteen Princes over?" If the emperor knows the way, you will have a lot of trouble. ”

"He has to come." Xiao Shao said lightly: "There are some things, only he understands what is going on." ”

In the room, Bai Zhi forsythia retreated, Xuan Pei closed the door, he seemed to be a little afraid to approach the bed, just stood a few steps away from the bed. Jiang Ruan slept peacefully and quietly, his face a little pale. Xuan Pei looked at it, and finally took a few steps forward, walked to the side of the bed, and suddenly knelt down with a "poof".

The young man's back was straight, as if he was a truly arrogant nobleman, but his eyes were full of tears, and the tears accumulated too much, and finally he couldn't bear to roll down from his eyes, and the hot tears dripped onto the back of Jiang Ruan's hand. His delicate and beautiful little face was wrinkled, and his old face was full of childishness at the moment, as if the child who had been pretending to be strong saw his mother, and his long-standing disguise was suddenly removed, leaving his stomach full of grievances to vent happily.

"Mother." Xuan Pei choked up: "Is it you?" Mother, are you back? He slowly grabbed the woman's hand on the bed, the hands seemed to be still the warmth of memory, he put his hand on his cheek, and a big smile overflowed: "Do you remember Pei'er?" Pei'er is so happy, mother, when will you wake up? ”

"I'm so scared after so long." Xuan Pei grabbed Jiang Ruan's hand tightly: "I thought I was the only one here, and I was the only one who came back." I want to avenge you, but I don't know what to do, I am slowly gaining a foothold in the palace, and only in this way can I help you. Then I saw you, mother, I thought you were not my mother, you didn't know me at all. It's okay for Pei'er to think like this, let Pei'er protect your ...... this time. He paused suddenly, but slowly, slowly sobbed: "But it turns out that you are still my mother." ”

"It would be nice if I could recognize you earlier, mother, we finally met again in this life, I don't want to leave you, mother, don't leave Pei'er alone, okay?" The young man's humble prayer drifted in the air, and the arrogant and ruthless young man in the palace also had such a vulnerable moment, if he was looked at by others, he didn't know how to feel in his heart. However, Xuan Pei was only immersed in his own sadness and the joy of losing and regaining it at the moment, and he couldn't care about anything.

……

But even after Xuan Pei arrived, things did not get better. On the contrary, Jiang Ruan fell asleep and never woke up again. Everyone was anxious, and Jiang Xinzhi was even more anxious, and his eyes were red. At night, in full view of everyone, Xia Qing finally walked out with his head shrugged, and said dejectedly: "Third brother, no, I can't cure this poison." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was grabbed by the collar by a person, not Jiang Xinzhi, but Xuan Pei, except for Xiao Shao, everyone looked at him a little unexpectedly. Xuan Pei said word by word: "The so-called Jinling Holy Hand, it turned out to be a quack doctor, this hall is now telling you clearly, if you can't cure him, this palace will tell your father, demolish your medical hall, cut off your head, my Dajin Dynasty doesn't need such an unworthy miracle doctor!" ”

His tone was grim, like a trapped beast in a desperate situation, everyone was shocked, Xia Qing was suppressed by this young man's fierce appearance, and he even forgot to be angry, just looked at him blankly. Qi Feng frowned, he didn't know what Lu Dao was about, he always felt a little déjà vu in Xuan Pei's eyes, and he didn't know if it was his illusion now, he always felt that Xuan Pei's angry expression was the same as Jiang Ruan's. Of course this is impossible, Qi Feng shook his head, cutting off any bit of his cranky thoughts.

"Your Highness the Thirteenth, don't push people too hard." But Mo Cong couldn't see it, and came out to fight for Xia Qing: "Although my fifth brother is a miracle doctor, he is not an omnipotent immortal, otherwise no one will die in this world, what do you need so many coffins for?" ”

"I won't talk about coffins!"

"Shut up."

Two voices spoke at the same time, the former was Xuan Pei, who was obviously angry. The latter was from Xiao Shao, he glanced at Mo Cong, and the warning in his eyes made Mo Cong suddenly silent. Jiang Xinzhi suppressed the emotions in his heart, reluctantly squeezed out a smile, and asked: "Dare to ask Doctor Xia, the poison on my sister's body, Doctor Xia can't solve it, but what else can I do?" ”

Xia Qingse shrank for a moment, and Xuan Pei let go of his hand angrily. He glanced at Xiao Shao, met Xiao Shao's cold gaze, and then was embarrassed: "I studied under Mr. Baqi, he is the smartest person in the world, I can't solve this poison, but Master may be able to solve it." If the Master can't solve it, no one in the world can solve it. He looked at Xiao Shao: "Third brother, if you take your third sister-in-law to Canaan Mountain, the master should also be out of the customs now." ”

Xiao Shao was stunned, and suddenly remembered that the last time he went to Canaan Mountain to see Mr. Baqi, Mr. Baqi had asked him if there were any special people around him. At the time, he didn't understand what Mr. Yaki was referring to, and he didn't know what he was talking about. Mr. Baqi said that the man came to take revenge, and he came to repay his kindness, and his life was entangled with him, so he was referring to Jiang Ruan. Yes, Mr. Yaki also said that he would have a relationship with that person, isn't it now?

Jiang Xinzhi saw that the expression in Xiao Shao's eyes was clearly extinguished, but he didn't know what he was thinking, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Lord Xiao." ”

Xiao Shao came back to his senses, glanced at Xia Qing, and said, "I'll leave early tomorrow morning." ”

"I'm going too!" As soon as the words fell, Xuan Pei shouted, seeing that everyone was looking at him strangely, Xuan Pei was stunned, and then covered up: "The palace and the lord of Hong'an are also brothers, if something happens to him, the palace can't stand by and watch, this is also a royal housework, and the palace is qualified to take care of it." ”

This is just a county lord who is a halfway monk, and there is no blood relationship at all, which brother is this? The eyes of the crowd were evident in disbelief. Xiao Shao said coldly: "No." ”

"You-" Xuan Pei was still about to speak, when he heard Xiao Shaoping's words that were not emotionally fluctuating: "You have been out of the palace for too long, and your subordinates can't stand it, and being found will drag her down." ”

As soon as he heard that Jiang Ruan was dragging him down, Xuan Pei fell silent. He clenched his fists and said after a moment, "Okay, I'll go back to the palace, but if there is any news, you must have someone send me a message." ”

Xiao Shao did not agree or refuse, this is the default meaning. Seeing this, Jiang Xinzhi said: "Then I'll follow, I don't have to stay in the palace, I'm Ah Ruan's brother, I can't worry about her alone." ”

"There is an eight-ring formation in Canaan Mountain, you are not a disciple of this sect, and you can't break the formation." Xiao Shao said lightly: "If you go, it will only delay time." ”

Jiang Xin's words were stopped. Qi Feng smiled: "Xia Wu and I will accompany the third brother." Xia Wu understands medical skills, so he can help the master, and I also have some things I want to ask the master. The second senior brother and the seventh senior brother stayed in the capital, and if there was any change, they could at least deal with it. He said, "We will think of letting the third sister-in-law see the master as soon as possible." ”

Xiao Shao glanced at Qi Feng, did not refute, turned around and walked towards the house: "What should I do." ”

……

Mount Canaan is covered with snow all year round, the mountains are high and the valleys are deep, and it is a northern scenery all year round, with broken ice and gurgling water. From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, there are a total of eight bad plum blossom arrays, which are interlocking and exquisite.

The scenery of the green poplar villa at the top of the mountain is different from that at the foot of the mountain, even if it is the wax moon in the depths of winter, the flowers are still blooming, and the warmth is like early spring. The green-skinned parrot at the gate of the villa had already flapped its wings and shouted, and an old man in gray in the courtyard was looking at the chessboard on the stone table and pondering. The green-skinned parrot chirped happily, and the old man shook his head: "Linglong, there are guests here." ”

As soon as the words fell, an eager voice was heard from the gate of the villa: "Master-"

Xia Qing ran in out of breath. Running around without interruption for more than ten days a year, he was a little unbearable. Xiao Shao has been the leader of the Jinyi Guard for so long, and he doesn't care about such a little distance, although Qi Feng is also a little reluctant, in the end, he has also been a scholar with some martial arts, only he has no power to restrain the chicken, he knows the art of Qihuang, but he doesn't know how to strengthen his body. But despite this, Xia Qing is an excellent doctor, adhering to the medical training of the doctor's parents, but he gritted his teeth and did not shout tired along the way.

Mr. Yaqi smiled slightly: "Little Five." ”

Xiao Shao and Qi Feng appeared behind Xia Qing, Xiao Shao was still holding Jiang Ruan, Qi Feng saw Mr. Baqi, and after calling Master, he said: "The third sister-in-law is poisoned, Master, please save her." ”

Mr. Baqi's gaze fell on Xiao Shao, who came later, but after staying for a moment, he stopped in front of Jiang Ruan in his arms, sighed slightly, and said, "This side of the fate has finally come." ”

Xia Qing touched his head: "Master, what are you talking about?" I really can't solve the poison of the third sister-in-law, Master, you see what kind of way this is, human life is at stake, the third sister-in-law has never woken up these days, and it is really not good to look at it. ”

"Carry her to my room." Mr. Yagi said.

After carrying Jiang Ruan to the bed in the house, Mr. Baqi suddenly said: "Little four, little five, you guys are out, I have something to say to Ah Shao." ”

"Master, what do you have to say another day, shouldn't it be to save the third sister-in-law right now?" Qi Feng said urgently. He had always been quiet and wise, and he was rarely so anxious. Now that he has seen that Jiang Ruan's body is getting worse day by day, he is out of shape. Xia Qing pulled him: "What nonsense, the master is here, and the third sister-in-law will never be in danger." Come on. ”

Qi Feng was stunned for a moment, although Mr. Baqi treats his apprentices very gently on weekdays, he actually values the rules of master and apprentice in his bones. It was indeed a bit too much for him to speak like that, and he was a little sneering for a while, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a little anxious." After glancing at Jiang Ruan with some uneasiness, he retreated with Xia Qing.

After Xia Qing and Qi Feng left, Mr. Baqi looked at Jiang Ruan on the bed, the cloth bag he took out from Fang was on the side, but he was not in a hurry to open it, but said, "Ah Shao, do you understand now?" ”

After a moment of silence, Xiao Shaocai said, "Ask the master for advice." ”

"Ah Shao, you are so smart, how can you not understand." Mr. Yaqi didn't look at him, but said, "What the teacher told you at the beginning, you should always understand a little bit today." Do you still have to make this decision until now? ”

"Master thinks I shouldn't have made such a decision?" Xiao Shao asked rhetorically.

"As a teacher, always follow your will." Mr. Yaqi sighed: "What you say, it is." ”

"Okay," Xiao Shao said, "I beg Master to save my wife." ”

Mr. Baqi paused his hand and said lightly: "Ah Shao, I remember telling you that you are not suitable to be a killer. ”

"Master said my blood wasn't cold enough." Xiao Shao replied.

"That's right, Ah Shao, as a teacher, you will definitely make this decision. But Ah Shao, you have to understand," Mr. Baqi had a faint compassion on his face: "Your dust fate should have ended here." If you make this decision today, your destiny will be irreversible. Ziwei Starfall, your emperor's destiny, success and failure. However," he said, "In this life, you will no longer be alone." ”

"I understand, Master, please save my wife." Xiao Shao's expression did not move, and his tone was unwavering.

"If you go against the sky, your life will be damaged, and there will be things that are not good for you. Your life may suddenly be in trouble, so Ah Shao, don't you regret it? Mr. Yagi asked.

"There is nothing particularly cherished in this world," Xiao Shao said lightly: "I want to protect her." The decision I made today, whether it is fate or calamity, I will never regret it. ”

The young man's appearance is peerless, his eyes are indifferent, and his tone seems to be as cold as usual, and he can't even see a trace of affection. However, the resoluteness and commitment revealed in it will move even the most hard-hearted person in time. Mr. Baqi was slightly stunned, his eyes were a little trance, as if he saw someone else through Xiao Shao. Many years ago, he also met a person, and he also said this sentence in the tone of Xiao Shao today, saying that he would never regret it, but it was .......

Mr. Yaqi sighed, he has his own personal marriage, and he said, "Okay, I will save her." Her poison is not difficult to solve, but a kind of poison refined from the poisonous flower in southern Xinjiang, this flower has a psychedelic effect, if there is a knot or a demon, as long as there is a little unhappiness on weekdays, you will endure the torture in your heart every day, and see the most feared scene in your life every day. This poison is harmless to the human body, but it will torture people's hearts, and finally cause people's hearts to fail and die, and they are tortured to death by their own demons. ”

Xiao Shao was slightly stunned, and then frowned: "It's actually Southern Xinjiang!" ”

"She's too much of a demon." Mr. Yaqi said meaningfully: "In fact, now she is the most vulnerable, the answer you want to know the Dao can be obtained by her right now, if you want to know the secret ...... of the Dao." ”

"No need, Master." Xiao Shao interrupted him: "Even if I want to know her secret, she must tell me herself." I don't and don't disdain such a thing. ”

"She won't want to tell you," Mr. Yagi asked, "what if she refuses to tell you this secret for the rest of her life?" ”

"I'll stay with her for the rest of my life." Xiao Shao replied.

Mr. Baqi was stunned, and suddenly said: "Ah Shao, I originally thought that you were not the number one killer in the world, but now as a teacher, I feel that your demons are not less than hers." Her demons are secrets, and yours is her. ”

Once a person with a ruthless face has love, he must be more persistent than anyone else in the world. Xiao Shao is like this now, which makes Mr. Baqi feel more and more impermanent, otherwise why would things happen many years ago again. He thinks that he has seen through the heavens, and his fate has never been impermanent, otherwise why would he not go down to Mount Canaan for the rest of his life, and if he leaked too many heavenly secrets, he would always be punished. Even though there are thousands of things in the world that can be predicted, the only thing that cannot be foreseen is love.

"If she's my demons, I'd rather live my whole life." Xiao Shao said.
