Chapter 41: Two Birds with One Stone

The night was as cold as water, and Yan Temple had been standing in front of the window with Shen Jiangli for a long time, until a cold wind blew and Yan Temple shivered, and Shen Jiangli turned back slightly.

"Yansi, how long have you been with me?" He spoke suddenly, as cold as the night wind.

"It's been three years." Yanji replied honestly.

"In the past three years, you have been by my side all the time, and you should know my temper best." Shen Jiang left the road.

"Yanji is clear." Yanji replied.

"Why?" Shen Jiangli frowned slightly, his eyes indifferent.

"Door master, Yansi doesn't understand." Yansi lowered his eyes, and his heart was already clear.

"Yesterday morning, Qiu Chulin sent a letter, I went to find Zhuo Qinglime, and she was with me during that time." Shen Jiangli closed the window and looked back at Yan Temple, with some doubts in his eyes, "In Yuqiong Pavilion, you are the only one who can do something under my nose." ”

"The door master, the temple has nothing to say, please punish the door master." Yansi knelt on his knees and did not defend himself.

"How?" Shen Jiang frowned tightly from the peak of his eyebrows, his eyes became more and more puzzled, he had never been so patient and asked, "Don't want to say?" ”

"Yan Temple knows that he is sorry for the door master, no matter how the door master punishes, Yan Temple has no complaints." Yanji Road.

Yan Temple's attitude of not talking about this matter made Shen Jiang angry, "Go to Jinnan, replace Wei Jiu, when do you want to say it and come back!" ”

"Yes." Yansi hung his head, his eyes moist.

On the sixth day of the first month of August, the new emperor ascended the throne, personally sacrificed to the heavens and the earth, personally worshiped the main hall, wore a crown dress and sat on the royal car, and was congratulated by the civil and military officials and called the ministers, changed the name of the country to Zongshuo, and granted amnesty to the world.

On the viewing platform, Ke Zhifeng's face was solemn, and his eyes fell on the bright yellow figure in the distance, thoughtful.

"Ying'er is very sick this time, you have to move faster." Ke Zhifeng's gaze did not drift when it fell on the bright yellow, but his gloomy voice still fell into Xiu Yi's ears word for word.

"Yes, Uncle Shi." Xiu Yi lowered his eyes and replied very respectfully.

"The return trip is a good opportunity, kill two birds with one stone, don't miss it with a soft heart." Ke Zhifeng's face did not fluctuate, but his voice was cold and a little dissatisfied.

"Please rest assured, Uncle Shi, I will leave tonight." Xiu Yi nodded, his attitude still respectful and sincere.

After the enthronement ceremony, it was close to the Mid-Autumn Festival, Su Yan in order to thank the countries who came thousands of miles to watch the ceremony, specially left the mission in the capital to spend the festival together, and the missions of all countries gladly accepted Su Yan's invitation, including Hongxia Yike, who had been eager to get rid of Qiu Chulin, because the most important task of his visit to Su Yan had not yet been completed.

Suyan Imperial City, Shanqing Pavilion.

"Cousin, you have to help me, help me is help yourself." Hongxia Yike sat slumped on the chair, the pastries placed in front of him were not moved, but the tea had already bottomed out.

"This is your family matter, I won't help you." Fang Jinyue was correcting the twists and turns, and he didn't even raise his eyelids, but the warning in his words was very meaningful, "Also, no matter how you toss it, people can't die in Su Yan's realm." ”

"Killing Qiu Chulin is equivalent to cutting off one of Yan Qiyang's arms, and it is also beneficial and harmless to you, cousin." Hongxia Yike didn't hear the warning in Fang Jinyue's words, but Fang Jinyue's refusal, which made him very puzzled, "Why don't you help me and take this opportunity to unload this arm?" ”

"It's a good opportunity for you Shuo Chu, but not for me Su Yan." Fang Jinyue finally raised his head and warned, "What I said, you can remember, if Qiu Chulin dies in my Su Yan's realm, don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless. ”

"Fang Jinyue! You ......" Hongxia Yike took the case, and the other party was extremely dissatisfied with Jinyue's warning.

"If you can kill Qiu Chulin, you can be regarded as helping me, and I will not stand idly by in the future." Fang Jinyue changed the book and said calmly, "If you want me to help you, you have to show the strength that is worthy of my help, Hongxia Yike, what I mean, do you understand?" ”

Hongxia Yike was angry, and did not appreciate the deep meaning of Fang Jinyue's words, and threw up his sleeves and left.

Fang Jinyue frowned slightly, her eyes were gloomy, and then she summoned Lu Ren, the deputy commander of the forbidden army.

"See the Emperor." Lu Ren knelt on the ground with his fists clenched and said loudly.

"After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the missions of various countries will return one after another, you go and arrange it, and be sure to escort the missions of various countries to leave Suyan safely." Fang Jinyue paused and added, "Shuo Chu's mission, you personally lead the troops to escort you. ”

"Obey." Lu Ren received the decree and immediately withdrew from the Shanqing Pavilion. He didn't ask much, because he knew what was at stake.

Qiu Chulin and Hongxia Yike, whoever has an accident in Su Yan will bring war to Su Yan. The emperor entrusted him with such a heavy responsibility, and he would never give up.

The moon stars are scarce, and the moonlight of this year's Mid-Autumn Festival is very beautiful.

After returning from the night banquet in Suyan Imperial City, Qiu Chulin sat alone at the stone table under the tree, looking at the full moon like a silver plate, and thought of her.

What is she doing at the moment? Is he admiring the moon like him? Do you think of him?

The moon-white broke into his eyes, Qiu Chulin looked back, and the person's moon-white clothes were extremely conspicuous in the night.

"I didn't expect you to come to me in person, but it saved me from going to the imperial city at night." Seeing the comer, the corners of Qiu Chulin's lips curled up and stood up to greet him.

"Where's the lime?" Fang Jinyue got straight to the point and didn't say much, "If you want to get my help, you have to show sincerity and return the lime to me." ”

"She's safe." Qiu Chulin's smile stiffened slightly, as if he was a little reluctant.

"Where is she?" Frowning eyebrows, Fang Jinyue asked coldly.

"No comment." The smile on Qiu Chulin's face disappeared completely, and his expression became cold.

"That's the attitude of the regent?" Fang Jinyue held the folding fan tightly, her fingertips turned white, and her eyes flashed with danger.

"No, that's my attitude." Qiu Chulin's attitude was tough, and he did not back down at all, he said loudly, "What we are talking about has nothing to do with lime. She has the right to choose to stay, not an item that can be traded, the reason why I don't take her into Beijing is that I don't want her to get involved in this right and wrong, and I ask the emperor not to involve her again! ”

As soon as Qiu Chulin's words came out, the courtyard immediately fell into a dead silence, and the cicadas under the moon seemed to have become cautious because of this tense atmosphere.

Fang Jinyue has taken too many risks in this half of his life, he can fall off a cliff of thousands of feet, he can bathe in bloody battlefields, and he can put him to death and come back to life. But she can't, she shouldn't run for the truth, she shouldn't plan for him......

In short, it shouldn't be what it is now.

He couldn't shelter her before, but now that he has the ability to shelter her, he should keep her by his side and stay away from every danger from the outside world.

But he clearly knew that his slender was not a caged bird, not a canary, and he did not need to be carefully protected.

Yiwangfu has always had a backbone.

Xu is Qiu Chulin's firm attitude and maintenance of lime made Fang Jinyue unconsciously shaken.

Perhaps, he can protect her.

After a long silence, the tense atmosphere between the two was finally alleviated by Fang Jinyue's regression, "Qiu Chulin, Shuo Chu is definitely not a good place for her, if you can't protect her, return her to me as soon as possible." ”

"Fang Jinyue." The corners of Qiu Chulin's lips were lightly raised, his eyes flashed with confidence, as if he had declared war, and said word by word, "You have no chance, unless I die." ”

Fang Jinyue was slightly stunned, and then understood what Qiu Chulin meant, did she regard him as a rival in love? Well, I don't mind adding to him, "Lime has been with me for so many years, how can she easily empathize with me?" The coming day is long, let's see. ”

Qiu Chulin's face froze when he heard this, but he didn't continue the topic, he retracted his hostility, and his tone was calm, "The most important purpose of Hongxia Yike's trip is to get Su Yan's military assistance to fight against my father-in-law. He came to you to play the emotional card and make up a story to persuade you to send troops to help. What I want to do is to debunk their stories and tell you the truth, and what happens after that is up to you. ”

"Are you so confident that I'll believe the truth you're saying?" Fang Jinyue said.

"The fake can't be real, and the real can't be fake. If this is the case, I am naturally confident. Qiu Chulin poured two cups of tea and invited Fang Jinyue to sit at the stone table, "It seems that you are not satisfied with their story, otherwise you would not have come to me." ”

"There are a lot of questions." Fang Jinyue picked up the tea cup and brought it to his mouth, but he didn't drink it, he frowned, and put it back again, "The tea is cold." ”

Qiu Chulin also frowned, but drank all the tea in the cup, "What's wrong with it......"

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the envoys of various countries set off for China one after another under the escort of the generals and troops under the emperor's personal command.

Hongxia Yike originally planned to set up a bureau in Su Yan to kill Qiu Chulin, causing Yan Qiyang to retaliate against Su Yan, so Fang Jinyue had to stand on his side and deal with Yan Qiyang with him.

But apparently Fang Jinyue had already expected this, and directly sent Lu Ren over to stir up the situation, leaving him with nothing to do.

Now, though, the problem seems to be solved.

Hongxia Yike picked up the hairpin in the letter, and the arc of the corner of his lips gradually became ruthless.

A few days later, in the early morning, Hongxia Yike and several of his cronies left the mission abruptly and without warning, leaving only a hairpin and a note.

When Qiu Chulin saw the hairpin, his eyes suddenly burst into flames, it was the crescent moon of the lime.

Lime didn't know how long she had been unconscious, or where she had been taken.

When she woke up, her hands and feet were tied, her whole body was weak, and she couldn't pick up half of her strength, so she only relied on the water and some food that had been sprinkled with cartilage to replenish her strength every day.

It wasn't until three days later that she finally broke through the suppression of Toad's internal force and gradually alleviated the medicinal effect of Cartilage San.

In the first few days after waking up, there were always pursuers behind him, and he caught up with them many times, but he failed to rescue her due to his lack of strength. I think Shen Jiangli has received the news that she has been kidnapped and sent someone to rescue her.

That day, Shen Jiangli received a secret report and left Yuqiong Pavilion in a hurry.

Since then, the defense of the Jade Qiong Pavilion has been fully doubled compared to usual, but even so, she was still taken out of the heavily defended Jade Qiong Pavilion.

After many disguises and disguises, they finally shook off the pursuers behind them. The carriage went all the way east, and it was not until the foot of the Muman Mountain that they abandoned the carriage and entered the Muman Mountain with the limes.

She hadn't seen the face of her captor, but she always felt familiar with him.

On the second day of going to Mu Man Mountain, she met Qiu Chulin.

He abandoned his horse and went into the mountains, accompanied by less than ten cronies. There were a few blood marks on his body, and his face was full of fatigue, but his eyes were extremely resolute.
