Chapter 479: A Difficult Choice
told Baiying eloquently, but Qi Ning had already thought of the picture of that year in his mind, Mrs. Lu was afraid of being sent to the fence when she was a child, but Xiang Baiying took on the role of protector at that time, saying that these two people were childhood sweethearts, and there was really no mistake.

"Uncle Xiang, you left suddenly in White Horse Mountain because of ...... This pattern? Qi Ning understood.
Xiang Baiying said: "When I left Zhuang and went to White Horse Mountain, Shuying took advantage of your lack of attention and stuffed this note into my hand. ”
Only then did Qi Ning understand why Mrs. Lu unexpectedly stayed at breakfast, but it turned out that she wanted to stuff a note to Xiang Baiying.
He recalled that in the morning, there was really a very short gap, and Lu Shanghe was talking to him, but he didn't pay attention to the two of them.
"Mrs. Lu gave you this note, could it be that she has something embarrassing about you and is not able to speak up to you when Lu Shanghe is in front of you?" Qi Ning frowned and said: "She and Lu Shanghe are husband and wife, Lu Shanghe and you are brothers, what is inconvenient to say?" After a pause, he asked, "After you went down the mountain, you returned to the Shadow Crane Villa?" ”
"Nope!" Xiang Baiying shook his head and said: "She said to wait for me in the peach forest ten miles east of Shadow Crane Villa, I don't know what happened, but if she is in trouble, I will not refuse." ”
"Said you went to the peach forest." Qi Ning understood: "Then you can see Mrs. Lu?" ”
Xiang Baiying nodded and said, "I found the peach forest, Sukage is not there, I waited less than an hour before Sukage arrived in a hurry." ”
"She's the only one going to see you?"
Xiang Baiying nodded slightly: "There is only one person, and she has not arrived for a long time, just to avoid her ears and eyes, so as not to be discovered by other people in Shadow Crane Villa." ”
"She's the owner's wife, what are you afraid of?" Qi Ning was stunned for a moment, and then understood in his heart that Mrs. Lu and Xiang Baiying had a relationship after all, and the two met alone, if it was known, it would certainly damage Xiang Baiying's reputation, and even Mrs. Lu's reputation would also be greatly damaged, so she asked: "When Mrs. Lu saw you, she naturally told her what difficulties she encountered." ”
Xiang Baiying shook his head and said, "She didn't encounter difficulties, but I encountered difficulties." ”
Qi Ning was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled, and said to Baiying: "Shuying asked me to leave Shadow Crane Villa quickly, and from now on, don't come back to Xichuan." ”
"This ...... Why is that? Qi Ning was taken aback.
Xiang Baiying said: "I also want to ask the reason, but Shuying doesn't explain, just urges me to leave quickly, the sooner the better." Speaking of this, Xiang Baiying smiled faintly: "Xiang has been walking the world for many years, and she has never run away because she is afraid, not to mention that Su Ying said this, there must be a hidden secret, but I am afraid that even she herself is in trouble, so I have to ask to understand." ”
Qi Ning nodded and said, "Yes, she asked you to leave quickly, of course, there is a great reason for this." Uncle Xiang, can you ask clearly? ”
Xiang Baiying didn't answer immediately, just looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and after a long time, he said, "Someone wants to kill me!" ”
Qi Ning thought to himself, I know this, the previous gang of men in black was going to kill you, and asked, "Do you know where those people came from?" Mrs. Lu already knew in advance that these people were going to kill you? ”
"Shuying told me that Brother Lu invited me to Shadow Crane Villa not to catch up on the past." Xiang Baiying said slowly: "He was coerced to take me into a trap, in fact, in the Shadow Crane Villa, a trap has already been laid. ”
Qi Ning was shocked and said, "You mean that Lu Shanghe wants to kill you?" I was very surprised, secretly thinking that these two people were sworn brothers, and Lu Shanghe was so despicable and shameless that he wanted to murder his sworn brother.
Xiang Baiying shook his head and said, "Shuying told me that Brother Lu has already taken poison, and in a few days, the poison will attack, and if I don't take my life, Brother Lu himself will die." ”
Qi Ning was stunned for a moment, only to feel that it had become very complicated, and frowned: "Who made Lu Shanghe take the poison?" ”
"Just before Brother Lu set off for Thousand Fog Ridge, someone infiltrated Shadow Crane Villa and kidnapped Suying." Xiang Baiying's expression was solemn, "They used Shuying as a threat to force Brother Lu to find an opportunity to take my life, otherwise they would take Shuying's life, and forced Shuying to take poison to threaten Brother Lu." ”
Qi Ning frowned and said, "In this way, Mrs. Lu, she .......!" ”
"Nope." Xiang Baiying knew what Qi Ning was going to ask, shook his head and said, "Brother Lu didn't let Su Ying be harmed, he took the initiative to ask for poison, and under the threat of the other party, he agreed to your conditions. ”
Only then did Qi Ning understand why Lu Shanghe was so enthusiastic that Xiang Baiying had to go to Shadow Crane Villa.
"Uncle Xiang, you are the leader of the beggar gang, who would want to murder you behind your back?" Qi Ning frowned and said, "Go against the beggar gang, don't those people want to live?" Also, with your martial arts, even if Lord Lu Zhuang carefully planned, he may not be able to hurt you in the slightest. ”
Xiang Baiying shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Brother Lu is benevolent and righteous, and he never thought of harming me from the beginning. ”
"What?" Qi Ning was stunned.
"Brother Lu took me to Shadow Crane Villa to hand over the shadow to me to take away." Xiang Baiying said: "From the very beginning, he was ready to die. It's just that he can't worry about Suying, so I went to Shadow Crane Villa, he was ready to find an opportunity for me to escape with Sukage, there are the eyes and ears of those traitors in Shadow Crane Villa, so he must be careful and find a suitable opportunity for us to go. ”
Qi Ning was a little surprised, he never thought that Lu Shanghe would be so benevolent.
"In this way, among the entourage who went to hunt in White Horse Mountain, there were also the eyes and ears of those thieves?" Qi Ning's expression turned cold.
Xiang Baiying said: "Shuying told me that Brother Lu took me to White Horse Mountain to hunt, deliberately making those people think that Brother Lu was looking for an opportunity to attack me, but in fact, Brother Lu wanted to get together with me for the last time before he died." His eyes were a little red, "It's a pity that I don't know anything about all this, and I don't know Brother Lu's hard work." ”
"That'...... How was Uncle Xiang poisoned? Qi Ning wondered.
Xiang Baiying groaned slightly, and then said, "It was Mrs. Lu who made the poison in the five-treasure porridge." ”
"What?" Qi Ning's whole body was shocked, and he almost jumped up.
Xiang Baiying shook his head and said, "I don't blame her, she ..... Hey, she has been married to Brother Lu for many years, and Brother Lu loves her very much, but in fact, Suying's body has always been very weak, in order not to hurt Suying's body, Brother Lu didn't even let her give birth to a son and a half daughter. Brother Lu attaches great importance to love and righteousness, in order to protect Shuying, he doesn't care about passing on the incense, and I can't match the slightest bit of his thoughtfulness and love for Shuying. ”
Qi Ning had already understood, and said, "In this way, Mrs. Lu is here to ..... It's to protect the owner of Lu Zhuang that he is .......! He didn't go on.
Xiang Baiying bowed slightly, and said: "Those thieves have set a trap from the beginning, hehe, if they want to kill me, they also know that it is not easy, so before they start, they must first abolish my martial arts." They gave Shuying a special poison, and after being poisoned, the meridians of the dantian were blocked, and he could not use internal force, which even Brother Lu didn't know. ”
Qi Ning sighed: "Since they know the relationship between the eldest brother and the owner of Lu Zhuang, they naturally have a very clear investigation of your life experience, and they know that in the whole world, if there is one person you don't watch out for, it can only be Mrs. Lu." ”
Although Xiang Baiying was hit hard, he still smiled and said, "This pair is really powerful, and the weakness of Hanako is very clear. After a pause, he sighed: "Shuying and Brother Lu have been married for many years, of course, they can't watch Brother Lu be poisoned and die, so they were poisoned in that five-treasure porridge, and they were forced to be helpless, I don't blame her." ”
Qi Ning also sighed.
Mrs. Lu was caught in the middle, neither wanting to see Xiang Baiying being killed, but also not wanting to watch Lu Shanghe die of poison, and her mood was entangled, which can be imagined.
In this case, no matter what choice she makes, she is not wrong.
"But Sukage is kind by nature, and after being poisoned, he couldn't bear to see me killed, so he ...... Gave me a note, found an opportunity, and met me in the peach forest. Xiang Baiying smiled bitterly: "She asked me to leave quickly, just because I was afraid that I would be killed, but at that time, I had already taken the poison, although the poison had to be dormant in the body for a period of time before it attacked, but how could I leave just like that." ”
Qi Ning asked, "What about ..... And then you stayed? ”
"Although I want to stay, I am threatening my life." Xiang Baiying smiled bitterly: "She was forced to poison me, but she regretted it in her heart, and she was only worried that she would kill me because of it, so she had to leave immediately, if I didn't leave, she would kill herself in front of me, I ...... I couldn't see her like that, so I pretended to say yes. ”
Qi Ning immediately asked, "When Master Lu and I returned to the villa, we saw a disciple sent by Elder White Tiger delivering a letter, saying that something important had happened to the beggar gang and asked you to hurry up. ”
Xiang Baiying frowned and said, "And this matter?" ”
Qi Ning took out a note from his arms, took it from Baiying, and Qi Ning said: "This is the note you left, one for me and the owner of Lu Zhuang." ”
Xiang Baiying shook his head and said, "This is not my handwriting. ”
"This is the one named Lu Sheng from Shadow Crane Villa." Qi Ning frowned and said, "This is not left by Uncle Xiang, naturally Lu Sheng is lying." ”
Xiang Baiying sneered: "In this way, Lu Sheng is the same party of those thieves. A cold light flashed in his eyes: "What is the name of the beggar disciple who delivered the letter?" ”
"It's called Wu Yi." Qi Ning replied, and immediately said that he had undoubtedly disappeared halfway, and nodded slightly to Baiying: "That's it, Wu Yi is not a disciple of the Beggar Gang, but also their person, and they set up this bureau just to lead you out of Shadow Crane Villa." ”
"Lead me out of the villa?" Qi Ning was stunned.
Xiang Baiying said: "The target of these people is me, they are coming to the beggars, you are Jinyihou, they don't want to implicate you." You are a member of the Jinyi family, and you are the Jinyi Hou of the Chu State, representing the imperial court, and these people are worried that they will implicate you and bring trouble. ”
