"Don't think about interceding for others first, tell me first, why don't you want to go out of the palace with me?"

"Listen to me explain to you." I held Wuxian's hand and said slowly, "Over the years, Chen Heng has fought with your father several times because of the matter of defending the country. Next year, the prime minister will send Kuai Shen back to defend the country and seize the throne. Wei is a small country, and the army surrounds it for a month or a half, and Wei Jun may have surrendered. But it was impossible for the Qi State to watch its most important ally being pulled away by the Jin State. Qi Hou and Kan Zhi are only thinking about getting rid of Chen Heng now, and they may not be able to take care of the affairs of defending the country. However, Chen Heng has always been tough in power, and he has always had the ambition to dominate the Central Plains for many years. When the time comes, the prime minister will lead the troops into the guard, and he will definitely not sit idly by. But once the three kingdoms of Qi, Jin, and Wei go to war, I don't know how many soldiers will die and how many old mothers and widows will be added. Now, Chen Heng and Kan Zhi are undecided, and I want to stay in the palace and find an opportunity to negotiate with Qi Hou on terms. ”

"Do you want Qi Hou to promise not to participate in Jin Wei's affairs?"

"Hmm."

"Little fool, that's what you were thinking. Okay, hurry up and go back with me before dawn, Si'er is still waiting for you at home! "As soon as the corners of his mouth bent, he wanted to pick me up.

"Why not? Isn't that bad? ”

"Kan Zhi is loyal to this person, and he can also be called virtuous, but his methods are too far behind Chen Heng. Qi Hou Lu Ren has only been on the throne for four years, and his and Kan Zhi's foundations in Qi are too shallow, and even if they are in a group now, they can't compete with the Chen family. Lu Ren is a monarch who wants to make a difference, but unfortunately his ability is poor. Although he has the heart to get rid of the Chen family, he is destined to be powerless. In my opinion, the victory or defeat of the Qi State has already been decided, and you and I join the war at this time, it is better to go back to the Jin State first, and think carefully about how to resist the Qi army for the Qing Father next year. ”

"A soldier who surrenders without a fight, and a good man who is good. Rather than send you to war a year later, I'd rather take a gamble at this time. Kan Zhi and Qi Hou can't fight Chen Heng, but don't forget the two tigers who retreated to the north bank of Shishui after the Battle of Ailing. ”

"What you're talking about - the Gao clan and the Guo clan of the Qi country?" The shirtless eyes sank.

"Exactly! The people we really want to talk about the conditions this time are not Qi Hou, but them. Let Chen Heng deal with Kan Zhi, when the time comes, we just need to hold the Hou of Qi in our hands, and then unite the Gao family and the Guo clan to bring down the Chen family, the most powerful Sanqing in the Qi State will be in chaos, and they will not be able to manage the affairs of the Jin State and the Wei State if they want to. Hongyun'er, I can't do this alone. The affairs of the Gao and the country have to be discussed by you. ”

"I knew I shouldn't have listened to you. Just now at Dianjiangtai, I should have knocked you out directly. "Shirtless clenched his fists and rose to his feet,

"Isn't that bad? No wars, no deaths. You let me give it a try, and after half a month, if it doesn't work, you can take me out of the palace again, okay? ”

"No, it's too dangerous here. Qi Hou's affairs, I will arrange for others to do it. Today, you have to come with me. Without saying a word, he bent down and carried me up.

"Red Cloud! I've already started to do it, I ......."

"It's a good plan, but I'm not going to let you do it. You can take this risk, I can't afford it! ”

"I have prepared a way back for myself, you listen to me first......"

"Shhhh Shirtless suddenly covered my mouth.

Who? Who will come to Qilan Pavilion at this time?

Gripping my shirtless clothes tightly, he led me up to the second floor and into a living room.

Through the half-closed window, I saw a red gauze lamp floating in from outside the courtyard. The people who came were very light, with their heads down, looking like temple people in the palace. I leaned up to the shirtless and whispered, "Go away, it's bad if you're discovered." ”

Wuxian looked out the window, his eyes suddenly cold: "I can't go, Chen Cheng is here." ”

My heart tightened, and I looked up, the temple man with the lantern had short eyebrows and white faces, it was the temple man who sent Ah Su back to the room tonight, and the one standing behind him at this time was Chen Yi who was dressed in green clothes.

Oh my God, why did he get here? If he bumps into Wuxian, there will be a fierce battle in this Qilan Pavilion tonight.

In the darkness, Wuxian quietly watched Chen Yi who was getting closer and closer downstairs, and the hand that was originally on my waist was now on the hilt of the sword. The room was filled with a compelling aura of slaughter. Your Excellency Qilan, Chen Yi also had a solemn expression, he unsheathed his saber and held it in his hand, and raised his head suddenly, his eyes were like torches.

One up and down, one light and one dark, one static and one moving, watching a vicious battle break out!

Here in the Qi Palace, no matter which of the two of them is strong or weak in swordsmanship, the situation is by no means conducive to Wuxi.

"Don't do anything with Chen Wei here, they're here to find me." I pressed my shirtless hand and whispered.

"No way!" As if he knew I was going to get up, he twisted his wrist and squeezed my hand.

I smiled at him, and he frowned and shook his head at me.

"Three days later, it's nightfall, wait for me here." I gestured to Wuxian and silently said our next appointment.

Downstairs, the sound of heavy footsteps came from the shabby wooden steps, and I pulled out my hand, which was tightly pinched by the shirtless, and quickly pushed the door and flashed out.

The footsteps of the temple people were getting closer and closer, and I only felt that my hands and feet were a little numb with tension.

The second room to the west is here!

I pushed open the door, took out the flint, and quickly lit the oil lamp on the windowsill. A small flame swished to ignite, and the footsteps downstairs suddenly became urgent. I took off my robe and threw it aside in the shortest amount of time, and sat on my knees in the center of the room, wearing only a white undershirt.

Dressed in white with black hair, a bean candle flame, lightly opening the red lips, chanting a witch song to send the soul.

Before the footsteps of the temple people reached the door, Chen Wei had already lifted the window lattice and jumped in on the green tile.

"What are you doing here?" He approached me, and his tall figure instantly enveloped me into darkness.

I glanced up at him, bowed my head and continued to sing my unfinished soul-sending song.

With a "bang", the wooden door behind him opened, and the temple people rushed in with red palace lanterns.

"Girl......"

"Vi, you let her finish singing." The temple man Bikankan only shouted two words, and was stopped by Chen Wei raising his hand.

Chen Wei knew what I was doing, and he stood silently with a sense of respect for the deceased, quietly waiting for me to sing a soul-sending witch song to the end.

After groaning, I bowed down and knocked on the ground with my forehead, then patted my knee and stood up calmly.

"Girl, I've found you. It's so late, how did you get here? When the temple people saw me get up, they immediately rushed up.

"Why are you here too? Didn't you ask you to send the girl back? Why don't you stay there and try the new powder? I bent down and picked up the robe on the ground, looked at the temple and smiled.

"I've only been sitting at Miss Su's for a while, and I won't see you when I come back. In the middle of the night, how did you get to such a place? Fortunately, Chen Ye helped, otherwise I would have died in a hurry! ”

"It's just a few unjustly dead souls, what are you anxious about? I won't put on my wings and fly out of the palace. ”

"Sending the dead?" The temple man shook his hand, turned his head to look around, and an arrow stepped on me, "Isn't this the house where the dead man lived?" Oh, my girl, what are you looking for! ”

"Your girl was born to do this kind of bad thing, didn't Chen Ye and Miss Su tell you?" I slung my robe over my shoulders and walked to the candlestick, "I'm going to blow out the lamp, you're too angry for fear of colliding." Go down and wait for me! ”

"Put your clothes on, it's windy outside." Chen Wei didn't look at me either, only said coldly, and then took one of the temple's arms and pushed him out of the door.

Did they believe it? Did Chen believe it? I took one last look in the direction where the shirtless was hiding and gently blew out the candle.

On the steps of the Qilan Pavilion, the temple man greeted him with a lantern: "Girl, it's late at night, let's go back quickly!" ”

"Hmm." I replied softly and glanced back at the Qilan Pavilion behind me. I know that there is a person who is silently watching me at this moment, and I covet the warmth of his body, but I can't stop for him, stop for him.

"Now that it's been delivered, don't think about it anymore!" Chen Wei patted me lightly on the back, and I wrapped my robe tightly and stepped on the shadow of the lamp swaying in the wind and walked out of the courtyard gate, out of the shirtless sight.

On the way back, the temple people asked a lot of questions, but Chen Yi only walked silently beside me with his sword.

What I did in the Jin Kingdom, Ah Su seemed to know very well, and I believe Chen Wei had also heard about the matter of the Zhifu soul extraction. He didn't question too much about the scene in the Qilan Pavilion, but the two peaks that rose between his eyebrows along the way never calmed down. I couldn't help but wonder, did he already find something?

"Master Chen, we've arrived. Tonight, thank you! In front of the terrace, the temple people carried the red gauze palace lamp and saluted Chen. I bowed slightly, turned and stepped up the stairs.

"Wait a minute!" Chen Wei, who had been silent all the way, suddenly took two quick steps and grabbed my wrist, "Bi, you go up first, I have something I want to ask your girl." He turned to the temple man.

The temple people looked at me, and then at Chen Rui, with a puzzled expression.

"Go ahead! Boil me a pot of hot water, and I'll come up later. "I said to the temple people.

"No!" The temple man handed me the yarn lamp in his hand and went up to the terrace step by step.

On the dark blue sky, with a bright moon in the sky, I put down the red gauze palace lamp and sat on the stone steps facing the terrace. The silver-white granite shimmered with dazzling stars in the moonlight, and the pair of ink-colored brocade shoes embroidered with moire patterns on Chen Wei's feet walked back and forth between the twinkling stars. After a long time, he finally stopped in front of me.

"The dead souls in the Qilan Pavilion, the girls have all sent them away?" He asked.

"Hmm." I nodded, but didn't look at him, just gently wiped the condensed dew from the steps with my own hands.

"If the girls don't go tonight, will they stay there forever?"

"Man has a soul, the soul is the spirit, and the spirit is the form. After death, their souls return to heaven, and their souls enter the earth, and they die unjustly, and their grievances will blindfold them, so that they cannot find the way to heaven. I saw them wandering and crying in Qilan Pavilion every night, and I couldn't bear it, so I made a guide for them. Chen Ye asked me to stay, just to ask this? I asked as I lifted the dew from the ground with one hand.

Chen Wei looked down at my eyes, and a brownish-purple scar on his forehead was particularly obvious under the reflection of the lamp: "What about the war spirits, what about the souls of those warriors who died in a foreign land, can they return to heaven safely without the guidance of a sorcerer?" ”

I looked at him, and finally understood why the mountain between his eyebrows rose tonight, and why it was so difficult to calm down......
