Chapter Eighty-Four: Night Talk
At the beginning of the day, the general's mansion was silent, but every courtyard was lit with candles, and the lanterns in the eaves of the candlesticks in the courtyard were not extinguished all night, which was a habit that Mrs. Qi retained during her lifetime, and now it continues in every corner of the mansion.

Qi Yu and Ye Ying came out of the inner room and walked towards the Lotus Garden in the moonlight, and in the next few days, Lin Luo and the three of them will live in the three bedrooms of the Lotus Garden. Now that the weather is cold, the pond has long been full of residual leaves and withered lotus, and there is no fresh color, and the scenery is gone anyway.
"Major General, are you sure about this?" Ye Ying asked beside him.
Now the king has begun to suspect Hua Ning, and has installed many people to enter Mei Yuesi and follow her travel. I guess when she came out of the palace today, it is estimated that someone followed her to the Shuiyun Pavilion. ”
"The key is that Qiao Bing is coming, and the king has to be suspicious of her, after all, she is not a small person in Qiao Jiang."
"That's just one thing." Qi Yu glanced at him, "Since the day she entered the palace, the king has been wary of her, but she has always been useful, and she must not be offended." Now I have evidence of the secret connection between Shuiyun Pavilion and Qiao Jiang, but I don't know the identity of the other party, so the king wants to send someone to Qiao Jiang to do a secret investigation. ”
After hearing this, Ye Ying frowned and pondered for a long time, and suddenly laughed loudly: "The major general's method is really perfect, in this way, it is equivalent to you giving that Hua Ning a set, and she has to jump in!" And you have gained trust at the same time at both the king and Hua Ning, which is really-"
"Shh Qi Yu interrupted him lightly and said with a smile, "It's too much for you to say that, how can I set her up, she is herself...... Draw the ground as a dungeon. ”
"Haha, yes, yes." Ye Ying said with a smile, and suddenly remembered something, "But, Major General, how did you get evidence of their dealings with Qiao Jiang?" All the women in the Shuiyun Pavilion are exquisite, rigorous and trained, and it is impossible for Hua Ning to inform you of this, you are ......"
I only heard Qi Yu chuckle and sighed: "The so-called Yiren, where are you on the water side, where ......" After saying that, he walked forward and quickened his pace. Leaving Ye Ying alone to stop in place, thinking about his words but still couldn't understand, he shook his head in confusion and hurriedly followed.
In the hall of the Lotus Garden, the three of Lin Luo had already gathered here, and in the afternoon they had all rested for a while, and they were full of energy. Not long ago, a maid came to inform them that Qi Gongzi would come over to discuss important matters with them, so the three of them came to the lobby early and sat and chatted for a while.
After Qi Yu arrived at the Lotus Garden, he left Ye Ying outside the door and walked in alone. Without the politeness after a long absence, and without the restraint when Qi Zhao was there, at this moment, the night was thick, and the three people in the room saw Qi Yu come in, and they were all relaxed, and the etiquette was much less.
Tang Guxi learned from Lin Luo's mouth that Qi Yu had a way to let them enter the palace, but the three of them didn't know what the specific method was. When they were chatting, the three of them thought that Qi Yu must have come to discuss this matter this time.
After Qi Yu sat down, he first glanced at Lin Luo, thinking about what his father had said during the day, and wanted to look for something on her face, but he stared carefully and found that he couldn't recognize anything. This action attracted Tang Guxi's attention, she raised her eyes to look at Lin Xun, and found that he was also smiling slightly, so she was more sure of what she thought in her heart, so she smiled and said, "Young Master Qi, what are you looking at?" ”
Qi Yu came back to his senses, glanced at Tang Guxi, and said with a smile: "I'm thinking, there is no one in this world who will really see each other at first sight." ”
"Hit it off at first sight?"
Qi Yu nodded and lowered his gaze, "Or, is it the fate of cultivation in the previous life, and the fate can be continued in this life...... Lin Luo, what do you say? ”
Lin Luo had been sitting quietly on the side, and when he heard him say this at this moment, he was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "I don't know what Qi Gongzi wants to express?" We don't have much time, so I think you'd better stop talking and get straight to the point. You tell me? ”
"yes, okay." Qi Yu smiled and nodded.
"Brother Qi, what you said last time, has it been achieved now?" Lin Xun turned his head and asked.
"If not, I still have the face to see you?"
When Lin Xun heard this, his heart suddenly changed, and he laughed loudly: "I know that Brother Qi is the most powerful, so we have a chance to enter the palace?" ”
Qi Yu sighed lightly, his eyes fell to the ground, and he said slowly: "Three days later, I will enter the palace to see the king, and it is estimated that within half a month, the king will summon you." ”
"I want to know what you said to make the king want to see us." Lin Luo looked at him.
Qi Yu was silent for a moment, then raised his head to look at them: "Do you remember Hua Ning?" ”
At the mention of this name, Lin Xun and Lin Luo glanced at each other, and they naturally remembered it. Only Tang Guxi was still confused, and when she was about to ask, Lin Xun suddenly said, "Brother Qi, does that woman also have anything to do with this matter?" ”
"It's not related, it's quite related."
Seeing that the three of them still didn't know why, Qi Yu continued: "If you want to enter the palace, you must gain the trust of the king, this is the first step, otherwise it is impossible to get close to what you want." It just so happens that recently, the king wants to secretly check Hua Ning's identity in Qiao Jiang, you know, the border is not very stable now, and Hua Ning's own identity is secret. Therefore the king needs you. ”
"Need us?"
"Exactly."
"How did the king learn about us? And why use us to investigate her identity? Lin Luo asked.
When Qi Yu heard this, he smiled lightly and said eloquently: "When I competed with you every day, the news naturally reached the ears of the king. He is now in dire need of someone like you, who has neither a name nor a family, but also an extraordinary skill, and of course, coupled with my advice, the king will naturally want to see you two of you. ”
After Qi Yu finished speaking, he picked up the tea on the table, he didn't drink it, but just used the tea lid to slightly scrape the heat in the cup, and his expression was peaceful.
Lin Xun nodded thoughtfully: "It turns out that you insisted on competing with your sister at the beginning, and you had other plans!" No wonder...... No wonder you had to call some princes and sons to watch, and you also called the leader of the forbidden army in the palace, I thought that Brother Qi just wanted to show off! Now I understand! Lin Xun's mind was immediately sober, and he couldn't help but admire it in his heart.
"Haha." Qi Yu laughed twice, "You're pretty smart. ”
After listening to Lin Xun's words, Lin Luo couldn't help but be secretly taken aback in her heart, she didn't expect Qi Yu to think about it so thoroughly, and he had already started planning since they told him about it. At the beginning, there was a secret in the daily competition......
Listening to their remarks, Tang Guxi finally understood what Qi Yu meant. He used another person to make Lin Luo and Lin Xun get the attention of the king, and then delegate important tasks to them, and after Lin Luo and Lin Xun completed the important tasks, the king would naturally appreciate them. At that time, if you want to reward meritorious deeds, then the jade talisman will be in hand, and it will be a matter of course.
"Who is that Hua Ning you just said?" Tang Guxi asked.
Qi Yu put down the teacup and asked with a smile, "Miss Tang is also interested in this?" ”
"Tell her." Lin Luo said suddenly, and turned to look at Tang Guxi, "She was puzzled about the jade talisman along the way, and now I'm afraid she has already wanted to hear about it." ”
Qi Yu nodded and said, "She is the master of the Mei Yue Division in the palace, she is proficient in the art of alchemy and is good at raising Gu. was originally from Qiaojiang, but later the king sent me to Qiaojiang to bring her back, and she has been serving in the palace. Over the years, whether it is the concubines in the harem or the ministers in the former court, almost all those who disobey the king will be given poisonous substances. Most of these people were tortured by the poison Gu to the point that life was worse than death, and finally committed suicide, and almost none of them survived. ”
After listening intently, Tang Guxi felt a chill all over his body, and a cold meaning came from his feet, and he hung his head slightly and stopped talking.
"Miss Tang doesn't have to worry." Qi Yu saw her worries, "In this matter, I don't think Miss Lin and Lin Gongzi will involve you, you are far away from your homeland, it is not easy to come with them this time, how can you let you fall into the sea of fire?" ”
"No way!" Tang Guxi raised his head suddenly and said, "I want to follow them, since I have left my homeland, and I am determined to follow the two of them, then life and death will go together." I will go wherever they go, I will also jump into the sea of fire when they jump into the sea of fire, not to mention that Lin Luo is already my master, watching the two of them go on adventures, how can I be safe? ”
After Tang Guxi finished speaking, the hall was quiet, and the three of them didn't seem to expect her to be so excited, nor did they expect her to say this, so they all looked at her in a daze, dumbfounded for a while.
"Good!" After a while, Qi Yu clasped his palms together and looked at Tang Guxi with a smile, "Miss Tang has a good temperament, and she is considered to be ignorant and narrow-minded, girl, please don't mind." ”
Tang Guxi smiled faintly, and asked with a little worry: "But Young Master Qi, if this important task is revealed, then what should ......?"
"You can rest assured, with me, even if the matter is revealed, Hua Ning will not dare to do anything to you." He paused, and then said with a smile, "Besides, you go to Qiao Jiang this time, and I will accompany you." ”
"What do you mean?"
"Lead the army to the expedition and pacify the western border." His gaze moved to Lin Luo's face and said word by word.
When Lin Xun heard this, his face was full of excitement and said, "So, we can go to Qiaojiang with Brother Qi?" ”
Lin Luo laughed lightly, turned his eyes to Qi Yu, and met his gaze: "Even if we go to Qiao Jiang together, Qi Gongzi is in the military camp, and we are in the neighborhood, we are also from the same country but different places." ”
The curvature of the corners of Qi Yu's mouth deepened slightly, he turned to look at her sideways, and said quietly: "If Miss Lin wants me to accompany you, I will immediately go to the king for instructions, and I will not slack off." ”
"Childe's kindness is well understood, I don't think it's necessary."
"Brother Qi is still safe to lead the army, visit and investigate this matter, and it will be on us." Lin Xun leaned forward and said in Qi Yu's ear, "Don't be left behind by someone when you arrive, it's not good to be left behind as 'only looking at the red face and not looking at the soldiers'." Don't worry, I will protect my sister and will not let her have an accident. ”
Qi Yu turned his head to look at Lin Xun and said softly: "I see, it's almost as good as your sister protecting you." ”
"Brother Qi," Lin Xun looked displeased, "I'm all set on you." ”
"Okay, good, I also understand your kindness." Qi Yu said with a smile, looked back at Tang Guxi and Lin Luo, stood up, and said, "The hour is not early, you guys rest early, you don't need to work hard these days, just take care of your spirits and go to meet the king in the future." ”
After Qi Yu left, Lin Luo and the three of them went back to their respective rooms and rested early.
"Ye Ying, come with me to the palace tomorrow." On the verandah back, Qi Yu said to Ye Ying.
"Didn't the Major General say that he would go in three days?"
"No, I'll go tomorrow."
Ye Ying had no choice but to nod: "Okay." ”
"There is no need to inform the three of them about this, just let them rest at home for the past two days, and don't bother."
"Well, my subordinates know."
A friend advised me to change two times a day, and more than 2000 words per chapter is also okay. I said give it a try, so that the click might go up. But the manuscript is still there, and it's still 3000+ per chapter, so it's sent first. Haha, as long as you're all the time~
