"I'm curious about the identity of that holy woman!" Jiang Xiaoyu held her chin and said, "According to Zhuang Hu, this woman was brought by the Cardinal Sect Leader a few months ago, but she was valued by the Sect Leader and directly became a saint, with a status above the three incense masters, so what is her identity?" ”

After a pause, she continued: "Also, Du Tong has joined the Cardinal Sect for more than two years, but he has never seen this mysterious sect leader, so I don't know what his identity is? How true and how false are the rumors about the treasure? ”

Zhao Yan raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Xiaoyu: "Let's talk about your thoughts!" ”

"I've been wondering before, Your Majesty's eyes are so wide, it is impossible for him not to be aware of what is happening in the northwest, knowing that I only heard about the treasure when I came here, you say, will Your Majesty also wait for this so-called treasure to appear?" Jiang Xiaoyu squinted his eyes slightly and said, "I think this is the only way to explain Your Majesty's motives, if Your Majesty is really interested in this treasure that has not yet been determined to be true or false, will it have an impact on our next actions?" ”

"I didn't expect you to care about that!" Zhao Yan smiled faintly, "I thought you would only be interested in the identity of that saint and sect leader!" Whether or not this treasure exists, it will have no effect on us, after all, my mission is only to solve the affairs of the Cardinal, not to find the treasure! ”

"Whether it's our own spies or from Du Tong Zhuang Hu's mouth, we can't get the detailed information of those two, in this case, if we want to know their identities, unless we get close to them!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "You have to think of a way to blend into the Cardinal Sect to have this opportunity!" ”

"I've been running around for a day, rest early today, and find a way tomorrow!" Zhao Yan put on his clothes and said calmly and confidently, "No matter how arrogant the Cardinal Sect is, as long as it is on the ground of the Great Zhou, it will never lose control, as you said, we don't know what the specific plan of the father is, we don't know how many things the father knows, whether there are eyes and ears in the Cardinal Sect, I don't plan to guess, I don't plan to use these powers, I just need to know that some things are under the control of my father, and all I have to do is to do what he tells me to do well!" ”

"Let's hope everything goes well!"

As the night grew darker, the silver moonlight came in through the window, Bai Shan put her hands behind her head, glanced at the moon in the sky, glanced at Bai Mei who was resting with her eyes closed, and asked in a low voice: "Do you say that the sect leader really has evidence that Old General Bai was framed?" ”

"How would I know? The leader said that there is, and the leader said that there is, and if the leader says no, there is none! Bai Mei said lightly, "We just have to do what the sect leader tells us, why bother to get to the bottom of it?" ”

"The power of the traitorous ministers of the sect leader court is too great, and if he fights alone, he will not be his opponent, so he has to use the power of the people to force the court, I am thinking that if the people really follow the cardinal sect to do this, I thought that it was a good thing to benefit the country and the people, and finally the court compromised, but the sect leader can't produce evidence, what should I do? Have these people all become anti-people? ”

"That's not necessarily, the law doesn't blame the public!" Bai Mei said lightly, "With so many people, do you think the imperial court will really kill them all?" Besides, those people are not related to you, why should you care about their lives or deaths? ”

She lowered her eyes and continued: "I just want to know what is the condition of my son, will that woman really want to kill him?" I heard that the woman sent Jiang Ming, Jiang Ming is strong in martial arts, ruthless, and has never missed, but I can't remind my son to be careful, and I can't live and die with my son, it's really sad! ”

"But these people followed the Cardinal Sect because of their feelings for the old general Bai, and in the end, if they found out that they were being used, wouldn't they hate the old general? At that time, the old general will not only not be able to sink his grievances, but will also make matters worse, if even the memories of the people have changed, how will future generations evaluate him? Bai Shan didn't listen to Bai Mei's complaint at all, bit her lip and said, "If that situation really happens, I will be an accomplice, and I will go to hell in the future, how should I explain to the old general and the young general?" ”

Seeing Bai Shan pick up the sword and stand up, Bai Mei hurriedly asked, "What do you want to do?" Do you know that the two of us are now the focus of supervision? Don't mess around, don't hurt me! ”

"I must know if the sect leader has any tangible evidence in his hands! If there is no evidence to want the imperial court to retry the old general's rebellion, it is impossible, unless Emperor Zhou has to do it! And now, even if all the northwestern people join the Cardinal Sect, they can't really push Emperor Zhou into a desperate situation! Bai Shan said, "I can't let this happen, I must know if the sect leader is using us!" ”

"Do you know what you can do?" Bai Mei hurriedly stopped her, "Do you still want to break away from the Cardinal Sect?" Don't forget the fate of betraying the Cardinal, how does the Cardinal Sect deal with traitors, don't you count it in your heart? ”

"I can't care so much anymore!" Bai Shan said, "Even if I die, I can't let myself do anything irreparable!" ”

She thought of Jiang Xiaoyu and added: "It's still too late!" ”

"You won't be the Sect Master's opponent, so why bother to send you to death?" Bai Mei knew that he couldn't persuade Bai Shan, so he thought about it and said, "If you want to go quietly, just go quietly, while the sect leader is busy dealing with the imperial court now, why do you have to send him to death?" ”

"I've never been afraid of death!" Bai Shan said, "I don't expect you to help me, I just hope you don't betray me!" As she spoke, she slammed her palm on the back of Bai Mei's neck, and Bai Mei rolled her eyes and fainted.

It's not that she didn't believe her when she knocked Bai Mei out, but she didn't want to hurt her if she failed, so she helped Bai Mei to the bed, and Bai Shan walked out of the door. The guard on duty outside the house nodded to her, and although she and Bai Mei were watched, they were not ordered to be treated as prisoners, and they were still free to move.

After passing through a few courtyard gates, Bai Shan quickened her pace, and obviously felt that the people in charge of monitoring her were following, she suddenly disappeared in the shadows, and the people who monitored her found that she was missing, and immediately divided into two ways to search.

In the darkness, a sharp eye flashed with murderous aura, the long sword was unsheathed, and the two watchmen must have fallen to the ground silently, Bai Shan hid the corpse, and before the other two watchmen found the body, he sped up and walked towards the location of the sect leader.

The sect leader likes to be quiet, and the entire mansion is heavily defended, but the courtyard where he is located is only a few sporadic henchmen, and the rest of the people don't dare to approach the courtyard for half a step, which also gives Bai Shan an opportunity to take advantage of.

There was no light in the room, she didn't know if the sect leader was inside, she just carefully touched the window and cautiously glanced inside, but she didn't dare to act rashly, the sect leader had deep internal strength, and the sound of breathing was very slight, sometimes it was impossible to judge whether there was anyone inside, she waited for a while, and sure enough, she heard a slight sound of footsteps, followed by the sound of opening and closing the door.

There can't be other people in the sect master's room, this person must be the sect leader, he went out, if he didn't guess wrong, he should be looking for the saint at this time. Bai Shan was overjoyed in her heart, she didn't expect the sect leader to go out at this time, she immediately climbed in through the window and began to look for it on the bookshelf.

"It's so dark, do you need to light it?"

A gloomy voice sounded from behind, Bai Shan stiffened, only to feel that the blood began to flow backwards, she stiffly withdrew her hand that was flipping through the book, turned around, and said in a tight voice: "Sect Master? ”

The man didn't answer directly, a dark shadow in the dark room walked around like a ghost, he lit the lamp, walked towards Bai Shan, handed the lamp to her, and smiled gently: "It's too dark, it would be better to light the lamp, right?" Need my help? ”

Bai Shan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and looked at the man in front of her with some horror, looking about thirty, with a gentle smile between his eyebrows, but she knew that his actual age was far more than that, and when she saw him a few years ago, his appearance was basically unchanged from now, and he didn't seem to age.

"It turns out that the sect leader has always been there!" Bai Shan smiled self-deprecatingly, "With the sect master's internal strength, how could he not find out that I was secretly approaching?" I was so nervous that I neglected such an important matter! ”

The red-clothed sect leader put down the oil lamp, the bean lamp dragged his shadow for a long time, he replaced Bai Shan's answer with silence, he casually flipped through the books on the bookshelf, and asked, "Can you tell me, what are you doing?" ”

"Evidence? The sect leader said that there was evidence that the traitor had framed the old general, I didn't want to steal it, I just wanted to see if there was really such a thing! After Bai Shan's initial fear and panic, her heart calmed down a lot, "I've only heard the sect leader talk about it all these years, but I've never really seen it!" ”

"Oh?" There was no anger in the red-clothed sect leader's gaze, only a trace of doubt rose, "Why did you suddenly have this idea?" Is there or not a big difference? Isn't the final purpose all about avenging the Bai family? ”

"Is that really the case?" Bai Shan stared at the man in front of her with red eyes and asked, "Is that really the case?" Is the sect leader really for the Bai family, and doesn't he have other purposes? ”

"I didn't expect you to think of me like that! Bai Shan, you disappointed me! The man closed his eyes and shook his head, "What about now?" How do you want me to be nice to you? ”

"I know I'm no match for the Sect Master!" Bai Shan smiled mockingly, "Since you have chosen to take this path, you have already made sufficient preparations, if you want to kill or chop at will!" ”
