The vast mountains that lie still in the night are like sleeping beasts at the gates of hell. The boundless silence is like a net that pulls the heavens and the earth, intimidating all the desires between the heavens and the earth. In front of the winding mountain road, there is a faint phosphorus fire flickering, and the black shadow is longing, like a group of carnival ghosts floating.

Liu Qi's comfortable and spacious carriage slowly leaned towards the dark mountain pass, like a weak lamb, approaching the huge beast's mouth.

Qin Nanxi leaned down slightly, leaned against the narrow window, and was just about to raise his hand to pick up the curtain, when he heard Liu Qi on the opposite side say gloomily: "Miss Qin, in this dark sky, no matter how good your eyesight is, you can't see the mountain road clearly." ”

Qin Nanxi's outstretched fingertips froze in response to the sound, hanging in the air, and slowly retracted for a long time. She turned around and sat upright, and said without fear or anger: "Mr. Bo Gu is familiar with the present, and he should know that "there is no doubt about employing people, and only talents are appropriate"? Since Mr. dares to entrust Brother Yi's life, why should he be suspicious of our benevolent and weak people? ”

Liu Qi snorted lightly, and the corners of his lips hooked: "Benevolence? Miss, is this sarcastic for being unkind? ”

"Mr. is multi-hearted, the so-called benevolent, gentle, good life, happy to love others, Mr. Asouf saves the life and helps the wounded, sacrificing his own safety, which can be described as benevolent. And the so-called weak just means that Xiaofei and I are both weak women. Three of us, why should Mr. want to use it and defend against it? ”

Hearing this, Liu Qi on the opposite side straightened up and let Ren's dark eyes be like vines, densely wrapped around Qin Nanxi's face. He pondered her-for-tat words carefully, and on the corners of his lips that were originally hooked, a strange deep smile suddenly appeared, and then he shook his head and said to himself: "Sharp teeth, it still hasn't changed at all." ”

"What?" Qin Nan was startled and asked sideways.

Liu Qi was slightly stunned, his smile dissipated in an instant, and he said lightly: "I once heard Mu Yun say that Miss Qin is clever and obedient, and today can be regarded as knowledge." Don't let the young lady be curious, it was for the good of the young lady. Since I was treated as a villain, I might as well make it clear. ”

Six years ago, Muyun built a secret camp in the mountain, in which he trained the cavalry battalion and the guard, three years ago, when we built a new camp, we found that there was iron ore in this mountain. Since then, I've spent half of my time supervising the construction of mines in the mountains......"

"Secret training guards? Private iron mines? You, how could you and Brother Yi ...... What are you guys going to do!? Before Liu Qi's words were finished, Qin Nanxi's eyes widened in shock. The back of her stiff neck was covered with a thin layer of cold sweat.

Liu Qi was not surprised at all to stare at Qin Nanxi's eyes full of surprise, avoiding her question, but teasing him: "In the next way, I told you the secrets of the Northern Army, but you are still right?" Such a desire to use without doubt, can it be regarded as the benevolence that Miss Shang said? ”

Qin Nanxi looked at him in shock, speechless, and Xiao Fei and Assufu on the side were also shocked when they heard it. Secret training of personal guards, private construction of iron mines. Any one of them is enough to punish Situ Yi for the crime of plotting against the death penalty.

Xiao Fei was the first to come back to his senses, pulled Qin Nanxi's sleeve, and whispered in horror: "He told us this, wouldn't it be to kill people and kill people?" Although she was born in the people, she also knew that according to the law of Da Chu, it was a capital crime to build an iron mine privately, Liu Qi took them into the mountain, and told them such a secret, if he had the heart to kill Situ Yi after his injury recovered, the three of them really had little way to live.

Qin Nanxi's mind was confused for a while, and before he could reply, Liu Qi on the opposite side had already received all the whispers of the two in his ears, and said unhurriedly: "The secret training is a personal guard, but it may not be Mu Yun's own guard." It is not false to build an iron mine, but it is not necessarily a private construction. Mu Yun has the secret decree of the first emperor in his hand. Originally, our preparations in the past five or six years were already on the bow, and we only waited for Zhou Huan's wolf ambition to be exposed, and the Northern Army could immediately go south in the name of King Qin. If that is the case, Gyeonggi Province, the internal guards can be wiped out. It's a pity, it's a pity! It's a pity that Mu Yun was confused for a while, and his trace of children's affection not only put him in danger, but also made everyone's hard work in vain, and made the prince ...... And all of this is because of you, Miss! In the end, Liu Qi's gnashing teeth were clearly discernible, and a cold glow shot out from his dark and bottomless eye holes, reaching Qin Nanxi's heart.

The scorching summer air in the car, glanced at by his cold gaze, instantly froze, Qin Nanxi avoided his gaze with difficulty, clasped his already cold hands, and hung his head speechless. She knew that because of her own carelessness, Situ Yi was imprisoned by the new emperor Zhou Huan. didn't know that Situ Yi's imprisonment was a great change...... If not, there was a letter written in her name, if it weren't for Situ Yi's reluctance to give her up, I am afraid that now, it would not be Zhou Huan who was sitting on the golden throne of Qianning Palace, and her father would not be in the sick house......

Qin Nanxi suddenly understood that Liu Qi's so-called peace revealed that it was actually not about trust, he just wanted her to know how deeply she hurt Situ Yi.

As soon as she thought of this, Qin Nanxi only felt that her heart was cut by a knife, and the huge and intense pain in her chest forced her to clench her eyes, and in the dark, she saw Situ Linlang walking over gently covered with blood and sweat, and her bloodstained hands, one left and one right, were led by Mo Dan and Cheng Mama, who were full of feather arrows...

"Sir......" Qin Nanxi opened her tired eyes, the corners of her pale lips were slightly curled, and her mouth was open, but she couldn't spit out a word of grievance.

Liu Qi raised his head and saw the tears in her eyes, he was suddenly stunned, quickly turned his head away, and after a while, he persuaded in a low voice: "That's it, Miss Qin doesn't need to blame herself so much." Although the first emperor and the crown prince have been planning for a long time, in the end, it is also up to the sky to succeed, and now such a scene is afraid that it is difficult to disobey the destiny of heaven. Besides, if it weren't for Miss Niang's reminder, I really wouldn't have guessed Prince Changping's thoughts, and I wouldn't have been able to rescue Mu Yun so smoothly. ”

Xiao Fei saw that Qin Nanxi was already in tears, so he hurriedly leaned forward, gently wiping the tears on her cheeks, and staring at Liu Qi in confusion. This person who is as cold as a ghost, he seems to hate Qin Nanxi for his unsuccessful plan to harm them, and he can see her tears, but he is inexplicably relieved. This Liu Qi, when yin and sometimes yang, what is he thinking?

The four of them were thinking about their own thoughts, and there was no more speech, and the car fell silent for a while. After walking for a long time, I felt that the carriage under me slowly stopped. I only heard the sound of fine footsteps outside the car, which rushed up like the wind and withered leaves, and the black-clothed guards, who had always been silent like a shadow, heard the footsteps, and retreated to the outside of the zhang.

The curtain of the car was lightly lifted, and I saw a delicate glass wind lamp hanging outside the car, a dim halo, and a timid jump in front of me. A Luo's soft voice came from the halo: "Sir, the general has been awake for a long time and is waiting for Mr." ”

Hearing this, Liu Qi bowed slightly, raised his hand, and made a slight gesture to Qin Nanxi, so he got up by himself, grabbed the arm that Ah Luo came up to support, and got out of the car.

Qin Nanxi got out of the car behind him, and Xiaofei followed closely behind her, holding her arm with righteousness and thoughtfulness. Qin Nanxi understood, raised her eyes and smiled gratefully, shook her head, and signaled that she didn't have to worry. Although Liu Qi treated them very detachedly, he was somewhat polite. People gather in groups, Situ Yi and Liu Qi are like-minded, and with Situ Yi's personality, it can be inferred that his confidant and friend Liu Qi must not be a small person who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge. He just hated Situ Yi for being obsessed with his children's private affairs, which caused them to have no plans.

Assuf stood behind several people, looking around curiously, and beside him, there were still two tall guards guarding him, one on the left and one on the right.

The three of them followed behind Liu Qi and Ah Luo, and with the traction of the dimly jumping wind lantern, they went to the depths of a path hewn out of a mountain stone, zigzagged for about half a cup of tea, and then bypassed a stone wall head-on, and suddenly opened up in front of them.

Not far away, the halo of three or five o'clock was warmly cast through the prism window, but on the tips of the ears, it was the wind howling in the mountain col swept by, even if it was the scorching heat of June, and the night in the deep mountains, it was still very cool.

Xiao Fei shrunk his neck, looked at the cliff abyss less than three feet away, and held Qin Nanxi's fingers almost embedded in her arm flesh.

Qin Nanxi looked around for a long time before he vaguely saw clearly. In front of me is a small courtyard built on a mountain clearing. The small courtyard is about concave in shape depending on the terrain, backed by a mountain and stone cliff, facing an abyss, and only a narrow stone road can lead inside and outside. Situ Yi, who was seriously injured, was hidden in the vast Amiri Mountains, and recuperating in such a top-secret place, it was indeed the best choice at the moment.

"Miss, the general is invited." Ah Luo's soft voice called Qin Nanxi back to her senses, and I don't know when, she had put down the wind lantern, Shi Ran worshiped in front of Qin Nanxi, and was ordered to invite.

When Qin Nanxi heard this, her thin body trembled slightly, as if a withered leaf was in the wind, and the sadness of leaving the branch could no longer be contained. The heart that was tired and alert all the way suddenly wrapped around the flexible thorns, and the tighter and tighter they were, the tighter they were, the more painful they became.......
