Chapter Fifty-Seven: A Shocking Conspiracy?

Xiao Moli said in a low voice: "The more the merrier, no matter whether it is good or bad, no matter the means? This is not the style of the imperial court, and it is not allowed." Could it be that Yunzhai is one of their targets?"

Su Xiyao nodded and said, "I think it's very possible, and I estimate that this secret order was not only received by the people of the Liu family, but there should also be some forces that have taken refuge in Qiongfeng County." ”

Xiao Moli asked, "Then Miss Su, your injury?"

Su Xiyao said: "I was surprised when I heard this, and my breath was suddenly exposed. After that, Liu Haiyun and the people who conspired with him chased me all the way, and I don't know how far I ran, until I escaped to Qingyang Mountain and lost consciousness, and Xiao Gongzi also knew what happened after that. ”

Xiao Moli nodded and said: "Qiongfeng County Guard ordered to solicit people and money, I know that there is a constant war between the two countries now, but it is only the southern border, and it is not enough to involve Qiongfeng County, at this time, it should not be ordered by the imperial court to recruit people and collect money." Moreover, such an unscrupulous approach will not be done by the imperial court, although the royal Xia family is not a Ming monarch, but they will not do such a practice that is easy to cause public anger. ”

Su Xiyao asked, "What does Xiao Gongzi mean that Qiong Feng did by the county guard?"

Xiao Moli shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, if he did it personally, then he might have something to do, maybe he will find a way to remedy it afterwards." If it wasn't his own doing, it means that there are people above him who ask for this, then the matter is big, maybe the other party's plot is not small. ”

For the two speculations, Xiao Moli believes the latter more. Because Xiao Moli suddenly thought of the tragedy of the Qi family back then, and suddenly felt that after so many years, maybe the Yuxia Dynasty was really going to make a storm.

Xiao Moli rubbed his thumb in his hand, and always felt that the conspiracy of the Qi family's extermination incident at that time might be related to the current situation, but he couldn't find the key to it for a while.

Su Xiyao looked at Xiao Moli thinking for a long time, and her face was not very good, so she asked, "What did Xiao Gongzi think of?"

Xiao Moli came back to his senses when he heard this, smiled at Su Xiyao, and said, "Oh, it's nothing. By the way, Miss Su came to talk to me about this, but what do you need my help with?"

Su Xiyao said: "Tell Xiao Gongzi about this, I still want to give Xiao Gongzi a direction, I want to wait for Xiao Gongzi to join the Feather Sword Sect, I can have more contact with my Su family, I always feel that things are not simple, I am afraid that it will affect the Su family." And I am in the Xunwu faction, it is estimated that when I go back, there will be many people watching me, and even Liu Haiyun will not let me go. When the time comes, I hope that Xiao Gongzi can find a way to keep the Su family. ”

Xiao Moli smiled and asked, "Miss Su believes in me like that?"

Su Xiyao said solemnly: "I believe it!"

Xiao Moli said: "Okay, I promised Miss Su, but I also asked Miss Su to promise me one thing." ”

Su Xiyao said, "Childe, please speak." ”

Xiao Moli said: "I also ask Miss Su to protect her safety in the Xunwu Sect." ”

Su Xiyao's hand that was about to pick up the teacup suddenly stopped in the air, and then withdrew her hand, looked at Xiao Moli's eyes and said, "I...... I try my best. ”

Xiao Moli nodded, and then asked, "Miss Su, with all due respect, since Liu Haiyun did this, then why did you want to go back to the Xunwu faction?"

Su Xiyao sighed and said: "Even if I have no feelings for the Xunwu faction, I must take care of the Su family, if the Liu family makes a move against our Su family, but after all, it is across several cities, and my Su family can still deal with it." But if I escape from the Xunwu faction here, I am afraid that the Xunwu faction will treat me as a defective disciple, and then the Xunwu faction will attack my Su family. ”

Xiao Moli said: "Didn't Miss Su expect that even if you went back, the Xunwu Sect would still treat you as a defector disciple?"

Su Xiyao was stunned when she heard this, and asked, "What does Xiao Gongzi mean by this?"

Xiao Moli said: "Since Liu Haiyun has already returned to the Xunwu faction and wants to get rid of you, then after he returns to the Xunwu faction, he will inevitably accuse you of betraying the Xunwu faction. ”

Su Xiyao sighed and said, "I don't know, it's just that if I don't go back, the Xunwu faction will ask my family for someone at that time, and it will be the Su family who will be in trouble." ”

Xiao Moli said: "Miss Su, why don't I accompany you back to Su's house." ”

Su Xiyao glanced at Xiao Moli suspiciously, and said, "Young Master Xiao?"

Xiao Moli said: "If the Xunwu faction wants someone from the Su family, it is estimated that a deadline will be given, we can go back to the Su family first to see the situation, and then think about what to do." ”

Su Xiyao shook her head and said, "There is no way, this is a desperate situation." ”

Xiao Moli looked at Su Xiyao and said, "There is still a life after nine deaths, there is no real desperate situation in the world, but I can't think of a way." If Miss Su believes me, let me help you this time. ”

Su Xiyao looked at Xiao Moli blankly when she heard this, and nodded after a while.

........................

Lin Youtian propped his head in the lobby, his eyes closed, as if he was taking a nap. However, he held two pieces of paper firmly in his hands.

"Lin Family Master!"

When Lin Youtian heard the voice, he slowly opened his eyes, then looked at the person who came, and said, "Young Master Xiao is here, please take a seat." ”

Xiao Moli nodded, and after sitting down, he looked at Lin Youtian and asked, "What clues did the Lin family master find?"

Lin Youtian nodded and said, "Well, I found some of them, but there should be a lot of things in them, but Qiushui Commercial Bank refused to tell me." It stands to reason that Qiushui Commercial Bank is engaged in intelligence business, and since there are customers who come to the door, there is no reason to refuse to tell it, which is really strange. ”

Xiao Moli took a sip of tea, and then said: "I think the news that the Lin family master has detected is amazing enough, as for the reason why the Qiushui Commercial Bank did not tell it, it should be the purpose of the Lin family master to explore the forces that destroyed the cloud village, right?"

Lin Youtian was shocked when he heard this, and asked, "How did Xiao Gongzi know? Could it be that Xiao Gongzi knows something?"

Xiao Moli said: "I don't know what I can't tell the Lin family master for the time being, behind this matter, if it is not surprising, there should be a shocking conspiracy." Knowing that it is not good for us, it will be a disaster of killing and exterminating the clan, I hope the head of the Lin family will not mind. ”

Lin Youtian looked at Xiao Moli, nodded after a while, and said: "It seems that Xiao Gongzi should have also gotten the information in the afternoon, although I don't know the source of Xiao Gongzi's information, but I think what Xiao Gongzi said should be true." ”

Xiao Moli said: "I don't know what information the Lin family master has found?"

Lin Youtian looked at the two pieces of paper in his hand, sighed after a moment, handed the two pieces of paper to Xiao Moli, and said, "Xiao Gongzi take a look for yourself." ”

Xiao Moli took the two pieces of paper handed over by Lin Youtian suspiciously, and looked at them bit by bit.

Lin Youtian said: "Three years ago, Li Ying, the owner of the village, went to Lianyun City many times, and every time Li Ying arrived in Lianyun City at night, the Li family of Lianyun City and the city lord of Lianyun City would go out and return home very late. ”

After Xiao Moli read the information on the two pieces of paper, he put them down, and then said, "What is the overall strength of Lianyun City?"

Lin Youtian said: "Lianyun City's adult strength is much stronger than Fengyan City, just one Li family is not something that my Fengyan City can deal with." ”

Xiao Moli nodded, and then asked, "Li Ying, this person is the big boss of Destroying Cloud Village, right?" What does he have to do with the Li family?"

Lin Youtian said: "I know this, the three brothers Li Ying were originally the children of the Li family who were exiled ten years ago, and they became adventurers after being banished. Not so much an adventurer, but a private mercenary, mainly to take on tasks, half a year after being a private mercenary, the three brothers single-handedly founded Destroying Cloud Village. ”

Xiao Moli was puzzled when he heard this: "I was exiled ten years ago? A month ago, the Liu family only received the task of recruiting people to collect money, if Destroying Cloud Village was really the person recruited by this secret order, how could it be that he was exiled ten years ago? Unless...... Unless he really made a mistake ten years ago and was banished. It's just that it has just been recruited in the past few years. But why did he still have contact with the Li family three years ago?"

A large number of questions quickly flashed through Xiao Moli's mind, but the more questions there were, the more clueless they became.

Xiao Moli shook his head, and then said: "There are a lot of suspicions, it seems that if we don't contact Li Ying or the Li family, we won't know anything." The head of the Lin family doesn't have to care about the attitude of the Qiushui Commercial Bank, I think the Qiushui Commercial Bank wants to protect the Lin family. Presumably, this matter involved should not be something that the Lin family master can solve or understand. ”

Lin Youtian nodded and said, "I know this, I don't care, but now that I know what forces Destroying Cloud Zhai is in contact with, then do we still want to do anything to him? ”

Xiao Moli nodded and said, "Destroying Cloud Village must still be uprooted." It's just that the family power is no longer convenient to make a move, and it should still be handed over to an individual, or to the city lord's mansion. It's okay for the family to get involved, but the person who takes the lead in destroying the cloud village must be the city lord's mansion. ”

In fact, there is a reason why Xiao Moli said this, the first point is that if the family forces make a direct move, the Li family will definitely take action against the family headed by it afterwards, so if the city lord's mansion comes out, the anger of the Li family will be forcibly suppressed. The second point is that if the Destroying Cloud Village is really related to the secret order of Qiongfeng County Shou, then use this to find out if there is a city lord's mansion in the four cities that obeys this secret order, and then let the imperial court forces fight among themselves. If it is big, it will inevitably attract the attention of the court, and if the other party doesn't want to make a big fuss, the matter will be suppressed at that time, and destroying Yunzhai will be equivalent to sacrificing in vain.

Lin Youtian nodded and said, "Indeed, then I'll go and talk to the city lord tomorrow." ”
