Chapter 26: "The Truth Revealed"

Qiao Yiling also heard the excited shouts of the little disciple, and said happily: "Brother Sheng is back!" Then he took the strip of cloth in Ruoyan's hand and wrapped it hastily, and pulled Ruoyan: "Let's go, let's go and have a look."

If you put it in the ice cellar, your steps seem to weigh a thousand pounds, and it is difficult to move one step. Qiao Yiling saw that her face turned white, tested the temperature of her forehead with her hand, and said anxiously: "Ruoyan, what's wrong with you, don't scare me."

Ruoyan's eyes were full of mist, and she pursed her lips to endure her grief, "Sister Qiao, I want to go back to visit my aunt, Qi'er is still waiting for me to go back and play with him!" ”

"It's so good and sad again." Qiao Yiling took her hand, "When the matter is dealt with here, I will ask Yan Lan for a favor, and then you can take me to meet the lovely Qi'er, okay?"

"Hmm." Ruoyan tried to pull out a smile, "Sister Qiao, I really envy you, you can be compared to Brother Sheng." ”

Before Qiao Yiling understood the meaning of Ruoyan's words, Ruoyan withdrew his hand, "Okay, go and see your big brother Sheng, I'll make you tea." Then he shuffled with heavy steps towards the teahouse.

Qiao Yiling always felt that Ruoyan had been strange in the past two days, and what she said was inexplicable, but she was so busy seeing Sheng Lingyun at the moment that she didn't have time to think about it, so she ran to the lobby.

Halfway through the run, Sheng Lingyun appeared from around the corner and rushed over, "Brother Sheng! Qiao Yiling stopped his pace and smiled at him.

"Girl, are you alright?" Sheng Lingyun walked over quickly.

"I'm fine! Brother Sheng, how are things going? ”

"All the best, what if you say?" As soon as Sheng Lingyun finished asking, he looked up and saw a figure shrinking behind the wall, and then remained silent, "You didn't look for her today?"

"She heard you come back and made you tea." Qiao Yiling didn't notice anything unusual.

"Let's go to the lobby first." As long as you make sure that Ruoyan is still in the Flame Knife, everything will be easy.

The two disappeared around the corner along the corridor.

Behind the wall, Ruoyan blushed, as if smiling with satisfaction and despair.

In Qinghui Hall, Yan Lan was sitting in danger, Xu You and Ling Su were sitting on both sides, there were vacant seats next to the two, and other senior uncles and disciples sat down along the vacant seats, which was specially reserved for Sheng Lingyun and Qiao Yiling.

Xu Yousaw Sheng Lingyun and Qiao Yiling walk in and exchanged glances with Ling Su. Sheng Lingyun hooked the corners of his lips almost imperceptibly, and sat beside Ling Su as if nothing had happened.

"Where did the boss go this time, and what kind of business did he do?" Xu opened his mouth in a strange tone.

"Uncle Shi, I have my own arrangements for where to go, so you don't have to worry about business." Yan Lan was unceremonious and didn't treat him as an elder at all.

Xu You's face was hard to see, and he was muffled, holding back the fire.

"Senior brother left this trip, and he didn't bring a letter to the door, the big guys are very worried, and the senior uncle is always worried about your safety." Ling Su said such beautiful words, and Qiao Yiling secretly cursed hypocrisy in his heart.

It happened that Ruoyan and the maids came to serve tea, interrupting the conversation of several people.

Ruoyan respectfully began to serve tea from Yan Lan, walked past Qiao Yiling, Qiao Yiling smiled at her friendly, Ruoyan nodded slightly and left with the maids.

"Ruoyan just stay here, I'll see the guests later, and let the others bring in tea."

Yan Lan's voice was cold, Ruoyan's eyelashes trembled, "Yes", and stepped aside in a low voice.

Qiao Yiling realized that something was wrong, and raised her eyes to look at Sheng Lingyun, Sheng Lingyun gently shook her head and motioned for her to wait quietly, and Qiao Yiling began to feel uneasy.

"Oh, there's a guest, who's that?" Xu You put down the teacup and asked curiously.

"I'll know when I come to Uncle Shi, in short, I gathered everyone today for one thing." Yan Lan looked at Xu You coldly, and then looked away, "Everyone has been complaining about me recently, I can understand, after today's major events are dealt with, I will give you an explanation." ”

The bottom began to guess Yan Lan's intentions today, and Ruoyan rubbed his hands nervously behind him.

After a while, the disciples outside came to report, "Master, Master Jiang Lao, Master Nie Zhuang and the others are here." ”

Everyone was surprised, and they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Yan Lan's gourd.

Jiang Xiaotian and Nie Changnan led the major factions of Yanyu Villa to the Flame Knife together, and Yan Lan got up and led everyone to greet each other at the door. Sheng Lingyun turned his head to look at Ruoyan, Ruoyan's face was pale and stunned like a puppet.

"Senior Jiang, Master Nie Zhuang, I've worked hard all the way." Yan Lan politely and respectfully invited the group into the lobby, and everyone consciously moved back and moved out of the guest seats.

Chartered Feng stepped into the lobby and saw Ruoyan standing there, angry, and his eyes were eager to cut holes and sores on her body.

But it is not appropriate to make a move at this time, otherwise there will be no three hundred taels of silver here, and the charter wind sat next to Sheng Lingyun angrily, Sheng Lingyun took the tea that the maid changed and handed it to the charter wind, "The door master is angry." ”

"Humph! Sheng Gongzi is a good means, I am a gentleman and a gentleman, and I am also a villain. The charter was exposed, staring at Sheng Lingyun.

Sheng Lingyun didn't care, put down the tea and moved it to the side of the charter wind, "Door master, if it weren't for the last resort, I wouldn't have made this decision." It's just that the owner of the door is not careful and falls into the handle. ”

The charter wind was too lazy to talk to him, so he turned his head with a "hum" and stopped talking.

"Yan invited you here today for the sake of the death of the family teacher." After everyone took their seats, Yan Lan walked to the middle of the lobby and said in a deep voice.

Xu You and Ling Su secretly screamed when they heard the rumors, Yan Lan and Sheng Lingyun went to investigate the case, so that they disturbed the hearts of the people, but it was difficult to shake it.

"My master passed away a month ago, and my disciples did not investigate the real cause of Master's death because of grief that day, so they misunderstood the master of the Zhangmen and pursued the immortal capital relentlessly. Yan Lan clenched his fists and bowed to the charter wind, but the charter wind ignored it. He knew that the good drama was ahead, and Yan Lan just did enough of his courtesy, filial piety, benevolence, and righteousness.

"It's good to clear up the misunderstanding, the two families shake hands and make peace, and how good it is to be harmonious." Shangguan Hai thought that the matter was over, and wanted to take advantage of a peacemaker.

"Uncle is righteous, the little nephew hasn't finished talking yet." Yan Lan said this lightly, and just slapped Shangguan Hai's face, Shangguan Hai's face was red and white for a while, and he tilted his head.

"It's good if Master Yan has something to say, as long as the truth is clarified, Yanyu Villa will uphold justice for you." Jiang Xiaotian saw that everyone was a little unable to sit still, after all, the residual temperature of the golden lotus had not yet passed, and everyone was in the recuperation period, so he hurried to the flame knife after receiving the order of Yanyu Villa, not to see Yan Lan selling Guanzi, so he urged.

In addition, a few days ago, Xu Yunxi and Xiao Ziyan rushed back to Yanyu Villa overnight, and Nie Changnan issued a summoning order to gather in the flame knife, saying that Yan Lan had found out the truth about Shen Shiyi's death, and emphasized that he must be optimistic about the constitution in advance...... The time is urgent, and I didn't have time to elaborate, but from this point alone, it is certain that the charter wind and Shen Shiyi are inseparable, so Yan Lan's politeness must be deceitful.

"Okay, then today's little nephew wants to ask the master of the Zhangmen a word in front of all the senior heroes." Yan Lan stood in front of the charter wind, his hands hanging down, but he could see that he was trying his best to hide his trembling, as if he was very angry.

The charter wind raised his head lazily, Yan Lan saluted first and then soldiers, although in the end he was charged alone, everyone would not be too harsh on the behavior of the flame knife to besiege the immortal capital, but also praised him for distinguishing between right and wrong, and understanding the general situation.

"Master Yan, so many people are watching, the old man will accompany you to do a full set of tricks, ask!" There is no violent atmosphere, and he has no intention of being angry, and he is just unwilling to come to this field.

"What is the relationship between you and my disciples!" Yan Lan suddenly stepped forward, pointed at Ruoyan, and her muscles burst out.

Ruoyan was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground.

Qiao Yiling's hands suddenly helped him on both sides of the stool, "Ruoyan, is it really you?" Qiao Yiling looked at Ruoyan on the ground in shock, sad and disappointed......

The disciples present at the Flame Sword Sect were dumbfounded, including Xu You and Ling Su, who did not expect Yan Lan to suddenly accuse Ruoyan of being weak, restrained, and powerless.

All kinds of surprises and speculations spread among the crowd, and he stood up with both hands on the armrests of the chair, "What is the relationship, Master Yan, don't you have the evidence, what relationship you say is what the relationship!" ”

Yan Lan and Feng Feng looked at each other directly, did not show weakness to each other,-for-tat, and the atmosphere froze.

Nie Changnan discussed with Jiang Xiaotian in a low voice, and then Jiang Xiaotian coughed twice, got up and said slowly: "Master Yan, don't worry, talk slowly, talk slowly."

Yan Lan sneered at the charter wind, "Yes, I have evidence." Then he turned to face everyone, "Ruoyan is the tea girl of Shanqin Tea House, because my master likes to taste tea and is friendly with the owner of Qin Zhuang, the owner of Qin Zhuang assigned Ruoyan to the Flame Knife to serve my master." However, it turned out that Ruoyan had another identity, her parents had chartered a merchant ship from Xiandu to ship, but unfortunately died, and owed a large debt to Xiandu. Ruoyan's family property had already been sold, and he and his aunt's family went to Wuyi to avoid debts, and then they were pitifully recruited by the owner of Qinzhuang. The little tea girl can have a few dollars of silver in a month, not to mention that she has only worked for three years from Wuyi to Yandao, and she has to support her aunt's family, but it is incredible that she actually paid off all her debts last year! ”

The more Yan Lan spoke, the more excited she became, and she walked up to Ruoyan and dragged her to the center of the hall, "Come, you say, where did you get such a large sum of silver." ”

Everyone present was at a loss, and they didn't know that they were so scheming.

"Master, I'...... I ...... "If you keep weeping because of fear, you can't speak clearly."

The charter wind slowly squatted down, and everyone thought that he was going to make a move on Ruoyan and take a breath, but he didn't expect him to just say softly: "Ruoyan, I also want to know, where did you come up with this large amount of money."

If he only cares about sobbing, he will not answer anyone's words.

Feng finally couldn't stand Ruoyan pretending to be pitiful, and pinched her shoulder like crazy, "Say, you say, didn't you help them frame me?" You say! ”

Sheng Lingyun and Yan Lan pulled the two away together, and Qiao Yiling also hurriedly came over to protect Ruoyan, Ruoyan curled up on the ground and trembled like chaff, still stubbornly not speaking.

"It's okay, Master Zhangmen, there's another letter here." Yan Lan took out the account book from his arms and presented it to Nie Changnan together with the letter, and Nie Changnan took it to Jiang Xiaotian.

"It just so happened that Gongzi Xu asked the villa to invite a pharmacist, so he asked the pharmacist to help me see what the problem was with this tea recipe." Yan Lan looked down from top to bottom with contempt.

Wang Heng couldn't stand the humiliation of his master on the side, so he came over to help him up, "Master Yan, my master rarely drinks tea, and he rarely has contact with Miss Ruoyan, so why do the two collude." ”

"That's right, your master doesn't like to drink tea, so the tea that Ruoyan gave him was untouched, but Ruoyan didn't want to give him tea, but to tell him the means of poisoning!" As soon as Yan Lan's words came out, Wang Heng was stunned, and everyone was shocked.

"That's right, the real cause of my master's death was poisoning! Master's food and drink are with us, and Ruoyan is close to Master's tea! Yan Lan's eyes were scarlet, suppressing the murderous aura that was about to erupt against the two of them.

The pharmacist took the tea recipe that Ruoyan wrote to the charter wind, and there was nothing wrong with it, and after reading through the letter, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he whispered in Nie Changnan's ear.

After listening to the pharmacist's words, Nie Changnan's face was solemn, he slapped the table and stood up, and angrily reprimanded: "Master Zhangmen, you have a good trick to hide!"
