Li Congyao's face did not change: "That is nothing more than an expedient measure." ”

Jun Qinglan narrowed her eyes, what does expediency mean? The woman's beautiful eyes shone like jewels, more dazzling than the stars in the sky, staring at Li Congyao for a moment, as if there was a kind of perseverance and tenacity that would not give up without getting an answer.

Li Congyao sighed softly: "I did suffer from coughing up blood before, my ......." ”

He raised his eyebrows slightly: "My father and brother did die of coughing up blood. However, when Uncle Liu appeared, my coughing up blood had slowly healed. Only then did I know that the so-called stubborn disease and death disease are simply man-made disasters! ”

There was a faint hint of hatred in the man's narrow phoenix eyes, and a flash of hatred. Jun Qinglan could see the change in his expression clearly, and she couldn't help but tremble in her heart. Could it be ......

The so-called hemoptysis of the Mo Fei Duan Wangfu is actually ...... Chronic poisoning?

Li Congyao took a deep breath: "Uncle Liu received the favor of his father in his early years, and when he heard that Duanwang's Mansion was plagued by coughing up blood, he made up his mind to see it with his own eyes. It's a pity that my father and brother had bad luck after all, and they didn't last until Uncle Liu arrived. ”

"Yes......." Jun Qinglan's voice trembled slightly: "Is it poisoning?" ”

Li Congyao's breath condensed: "...... Kindness. Although the residual poison in my body has already been cleaned up, for the sake of expediency, I have not declared it to the public. Duanwang, who is frail and sickly and has a short life, is even more popular in Yanjing. ”

Jun Qinglan frowned slightly, and did not ask who poisoned her. Duanwangfu has a high position and power in Yanjing City, and Duanwang in the past dynasties is quite respected, who else has the courage and ability to poison Duanwangfu? And the object is so obvious, only for the men in the house!

Looking at the entire Yanjing, and even the imperial court of Northern Xia, who else has this qualification?

"But ......." The worry in Jun Qinglan's eyes did not subside: "But at that time, you were clearly cold and piercing, and there was no blood at all, did you really clean up the residual poison?" ”

Illness can be faked, but Li Congyao's state every time he gets sick is true. It seems that the blood around the body has been drained, how can things that are obvious to all be faked?

Li Congyao hooked the corner of his lips: "You come and touch my palm now." ”

Jun Qinglan stretched out her hand when she heard this, and she felt a piercing coldness when her skin touched. Li Congyao's pale skin is becoming transparent at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he can clearly see the blue and white blood vessels under the skin. And that hand was held, where was there still the warm touch of the human body, and it was clearly a piece of ice that was so cold that it was held in the palm of the hand.

"This ...... This....... Jun Qinglan's eyes widened, and she couldn't express her feelings at the moment in words.

Li Congyao withdrew his hand: "This is nothing more than an exercise I have practiced. ”

He raised his eyebrows before opening his mouth again: "Coughing up blood is a kind of heat poison, which is not easy to remove. No matter what method is used to clean up, it will hurt the roots, and even if all the toxins are removed, it will cause irreversible damage to itself. From now on, he will remain sick and will not be able to live in good health for the rest of his life. ”

Jun Qinglan frowned, there is such a sinister and vicious poison in the world? It is no wonder that the Northern Xia Emperor was never worried about the fact that Duanwangfu found out about the poisoning, because even if they found out, there was nothing they could do. After all, it won't last long.

"Uncle Liu has traveled all over the world all year round and is well-informed. He said that there is a place in the middle of the world that has been covered with ice and snow all year round, and has accumulated 10,000-year-old ice that is difficult to melt in the scorching heat over the years. Mining Xuan Ice is cast into an ice room, and when the poison occurs, people are placed on the ice, and the heart is protected by internal force. You can slowly remove the heat in your body in extremely cold places. ”

Li Congyao's voice paused: "I lived in the ice room for five whole years, and finally survived, and I was blessed by misfortune and realized a new set of exercises. ”

As he spoke, he spread his palms out. The palm that was as white as jade suddenly condensed, and there was a white mist. The mist gradually became thick and solid from the initial thinness, turning into clear ice, and in the blink of an eye, an ice lotus bloomed in the palm of the palm. Li Congyao smiled slightly, gently held his palm into a circle, and when he spread it out again, the ice lotus in his palm turned into a dagger that was inches long and crystal clear.

Li Congyao's fingers shook slightly, and the dagger condensed by ice gas turned into a handful of fine needles and flew out of his palm. Jun Qinglan only had time to see a faint halo flash, and the next moment, those thin needles disappeared into the gap in the carriage, and half of them were gone.

She was distracted, but Li Congyao's palm had already been handed to her eyes. The man was like a jade, and his long fingers were clearly pinching a blooming magnolia flower, a magnolia flower made of ice.

"This, for you."

Jun Qinglan took the magnolia flower from his hand, only to feel the coldness to the bones. Before I could take a closer look, the flower turned into a mist and disappeared in an instant. Jun Qinglan didn't come back to her senses for a long time, and what she saw in front of her was breathtaking. Of course, she wouldn't be stupid enough to think that Li Congyao was playing tricks.

If it is really a trick, it is also a terrible trick that can kill people silently and invisibly. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, who would have thought that he would be able to cultivate such a subtle technique in such a harsh environment while struggling on the verge of being tormented by pain and death every day?

Li Congyao is a genius, no one can match!

It's no wonder that the dark guards who came out of the ghost camp and experienced life and death in Duanwangfu were so impressed by him. Such a person deserves the admiration of the people of the world.

"Lord Wang......."

"Shh Li Congyao pointed and gently pressed on the woman's soft lips: "This is a secret, I only tell you." Since then, my life has been entrusted to you. ”

Jun Qinglan: "......." ”

It would have been a joy to have someone who had such trust. But...... How does it sound like entrusting one's life to one's life, and what does it always feel strange? But there is little opportunity to explore this question again.

Yanjing City is far away from Guanzhou Mansion, and in the following days, Jun Qinglan will focus all his attention on the genealogy of the Qin family. The Qin clan in Guanzhou Mansion has been established for hundreds of years, and the family of the Zhong Ding family, the family tree has accumulated a thick stack, but Jun Qinglan can almost recite the family tree from front to back.

However, no matter how carefully she looked, she could not figure out why the date of the deposed emperor Gaozong was adopted on the page of the ninth day of the third month of the 36th year of Taihe. Even in the records of the 12th day of April on the 9th day of the 3rd month of the neighboring month, the year used in the writing is the Qianyuan year of Emperor Yingzong.

Why is that?

Of course, this will not be due to negligence, which is enough to wipe out the race. Jun Qinglan believed that the people of the Qin clan would never make such a low-level mistake. After all, since the Qin clan was deposed by Gaozong, although he has become a feudal official, and his power and wealth have been in full swing for a while, he has also borne the infamy, and his life is difficult and not very comfortable. Let's ask, how could such a cautious family allow itself to make such a fatal mistake?

"Have you made any new discoveries?" Li Congyao stomped out of the woods and slowly sat down on the bonfire beside Jun Qinglan.

Jun Qinglan sighed softly and closed the family tree: "No." ”

She didn't hide the sadness in her eyes. Getting closer and closer to the Guanzhou Mansion, she had fantasized about returning to her hometown countless times to clear up the grievances of her father and brother. However, now they are at a loss, and there is no clue at all. In such a state, even if you go to the state capital, what can you do? After all, neither she nor Li Congyao is suitable for staying in the same place for too long.

The sound of horses' hooves rang out from the dense forest, mixed with the sound of wooden wheels pressing against the road, and faded away.

Jun Qinglan only raised her eyes slightly and swept towards the forest, but she didn't see anything probable. The corners of his lips were slightly hooked: "Is there another team of people going out?" Why did you leave so late today? I'm afraid I'm going to have to travel overnight. ”

"Yes." Li Congyao responded lightly: "Although no new secret agents have been discovered in the past two days, we can't take it lightly. When the mountain rain is coming, the wind is often full of buildings, and the desire to be calm is more unusual. Traveling overnight is more in line with the characteristics of those of us who have fled, isn't it? ”

"That's what I said." Jun Qinglan groaned slightly, and finally sighed: "There are more and more people leaving these days, and there are fewer people you bring with you." Lack of manpower will inevitably lead to more dangers. ”

Jun Qinglan's worries are not unreasonable.

Since leaving Yanjing, Li Congyao has set up suspicions and confused his true whereabouts, and has allocated some of the men and horses he brought with him every once in a while to move in different directions, so that the enemy can never figure out his true intentions, so as to ensure that he arrives at Guanzhou Mansion safely.

Counting the days, the emperor should have discovered the secret in the tiger talisman a long time ago, and I am afraid that he would have long hated Li Congyao and Jun Qinglan's corpses to be broken into thousands of pieces to solve the hatred in his heart. Therefore, he will definitely continue to send secret agents to find the whereabouts of the two, and then do it. After all, the two of them are far away from the court at the moment, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and no one knows if they die, let alone calculate this account on the emperor's head.

Now is the perfect opportunity to kill people.

At this time, it is necessary to set up a suspicious array and hide your whereabouts. However, the number of people left by his side must not be less, who knows how many people the emperor will send to intercept them?

"Huh." Li Congyao looked at Jun Qinglan's worries, and lifted the corners of his lips indifferently: "If my life needs to be protected by others to keep it, I really don't deserve to survive in this world for so many years." ”

Jun Qinglan pursed her lips. Li Congyao's words are extremely arrogant, but they are also indisputable facts. Even the poison that caused the illusion of coughing up blood could not kill him, and this person was probably tossed by others to death.

However, with such an identity, how can the two of them investigate the case?

"Your most important task now is not to worry about me, but to think carefully about where to start with the Qin family's case."

Jun Qinglan frowned fiercely. In the past six years, she has taken over no less than 100 cases, even Xiao Wan's unbelievable cases can be clearly understood by her. However, the Xiao family's case made her helpless. Really, I can't find the slightest irrationality.

She buried herself in the genealogy again, and slowly rubbed the page that found the case. What mysteries are hidden in this special era?
