Zhu Liangxin learned from the spies raised by the Zhu family that there were really a few mountain villas hidden around the suburbs of Beijing, all of which had changed hands recently, and the people who lived there were also some outsiders.

Zhu Liangxin listened to the news with a cold face, and he was very sure that there were people from Tongtian Pavilion in these Zhuangzi.

"You go back and tell your general, keep an eye on these Zhuangzi carefully, and report any changes immediately. If it's too late to deliver the news to the palace, it's okay to strike first. These rebellious ministers and thieves, everyone will be punished, even if we cut them first and then play, the saint can't say anything. ”

"Yes, the little ones will go back to the adults." The spy immediately took the order to retreat and left under the guidance of the palace people.

"Niangniang, if the young master really does what you say, will there be too much movement," Mama Kong reminded at the right time.

Zhu Liangxin stood up, put his hand on Mama Kong's arm, and the two walked out of the secret room side by side and sat down in the brightly lit Jichang Palace. Zhu Liangxin frowned and looked at the palace lamp in front of him, and inexplicably felt that today's candle flame was extremely dazzling and uncomfortable.

"I don't know what this palace does, but if I don't cut through the mess quickly, what else can this palace do. Only by tying up the remnants of the Star Picking Pavilion and the people of Tongtian Pavilion can we let the saints borrow our help to prevent future troubles. ”

In the end, they are a couple who have shared the same bed for many years, although they have been separated for a long time, Zhu Liangxin knows very well what Xiao Wusheng is most taboo, what he dislikes the most, and what he is most afraid of mentioning. As long as anyone or thing can be related to Tongtian Pavilion, they will be disgusted by Xiao Wusheng, which is also the final effect she wants.

Zhu Liangxin squinted slightly, staring at the flickering firelight, and fell into deep thought: she was thinking about what she should do next, and getting rid of obstacles at the moment was secondary, and the most important thing was to get Xiao Zhan and Tongtian Pavilion involved. In this way, she can kill two birds with one stone, and destroy these two scourges that keep her awake at night together.

……

Xiao Zhan took advantage of the night to come to the Nameless Mountain Villa, and Feiyun had been waiting in the main room for a long time.

"How's it going?" Xiao Zhan entered the room, took off his cloak, looked at Feiyun and asked.

"Caught one, let one go. Just like we originally planned," Feiyun paused for a moment and said, "Now that person is in the secret room, do you want to go down and take a look." ”

Xiao Zhan shook his head and said with a smile: "I won't go and watch it, let's just act according to the plan." Is the person you lobbied from the Tsutenkaku really willing to do things for me? ”

"They won't betray me, and naturally they won't betray you." Feiyun said very firmly, Xiao Zhan looked at him, smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Master, what should the apprentice say about you. After going through so much, haven't you seen it yet? Nothing is set in stone," Xiao Zhan finished speaking, seeing Feiyun silent, he reminded in a serious tone: "Since they can betray Tongtian Pavilion, they are naturally likely to betray you and me. ”

Feiyun looked up at him and replied solemnly: "Childe, don't worry, these children, like you and me, have a common enemy. Before the great revenge is avenged, there will be no dissent. ”

"That's good," Xiao Zhan lowered his eyes and sat aside, "Who is the person who made this human skin mask?" Can you do it? This time, we are sending people to infiltrate the Zhu family's army, but don't show our flaws. ”

"No, this person's skills must be reliable," Feiyun looked at Xiao Zhan with a somewhat complicated expression, "Speaking of which, you also know this person, it is the maid Ah Jiu who served Miss Ah Jin before." ”

Xiao Zhan was stunned, he didn't know what he thought, and his expression was stunned, "It turned out to be her...... Then I'm relieved. ”

After that, he stood up and put on his cloak again, "It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, master, don't pass the apprentice, and ask the master to be careful during this time, and be careful to hide the traces." ”

"I will, don't worry. I don't dare to die until I achieve great things. Feiyun replied respectfully and sent Xiao Zhan out of the villa. By the time he re-entered the room, Ah Jiu was already sitting in his room drinking tea, and there was a chic brocade box in her hand, from which a faint smell of blood wafted out.

"The man has already solved it?" Feiyun walked over with his hands in his hands, stood still beside Ah Jiu, and asked softly.

His throat had long since been smoked, and even if he softened his tone, the sound he made was still terrifying.

Ah Jiu glanced up at him, lowered his head and drank tea, "It's been solved, that person confided a lot of things before he died, I don't know if it's useful or not, it's all written on a piece of paper, you look at it slowly." It will take five days for the human skin mask to be made, and then you can have people wear this to return to the Zhu family...... It's just that this person has disappeared for five days for no reason, and he can still regain the trust of the Zhu family? ”

"Yes, as long as he brings back some useful information and makes up a convincing reason. These spies and killers raised by the Zhu family were lost in half as early as when they were in Huainan County, and now that they are employing people, how can they refuse a person who has died all his life to report back to report the news. ”

Feiyun's words sounded a little ambiguous, and Ah Jiu had no interest in them. She finished her tea, holding the brocade box and about to leave Feiyun's room.

Feiyun turned his head and stopped her, "Ah Jiu".

"What's the matter," Ah Jiu asked, tilting his head.

"Have you ever thought about going back to your girl?"

When Ah Jiu heard this, his expressionless face finally gained some popularity. She was silent for a long time, shook her head, and said, "Don't go back." Even if I go back, the girl won't want me like this. I know her temper. You don't have to test me like that, it's boring. ”

Feiyun didn't answer, and it wasn't until Ah Jiu left that he looked at the floor in the room again.

Actually, it was not a temptation, it was a genuine inquiry. This is not only asking Ah Jiu, but also asking himself.

Feiyun sat down slowly, and Ah Yin's immature face appeared in his mind again.

That young man in white really looks like his biological mother. The moment his identity was confirmed, Feiyun was really a little scared. Today's Xiao Zhan is no longer the gentle young man he used to be, if Ah Yin becomes a stumbling block on his way forward one day, Feiyun is not sure whether Xiao Zhan will show mercy to his former brotherhood.

Feiyun thought of this, and the hand on the table couldn't help but clench his fists.

"Ayaro, Ayaro, how did things come to this......" he muttered to himself, "I didn't expect him to be alive, I just wanted to avenge you...... It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous......"

……

Ah Yin was stunned when he saw the person who came to take over, and the other party was also stunned. Before he could speak, the man knelt down.

"Young master."

Ah Yin held the broken star in his arms, looked down at the young man trembling in front of him, and said after a while: "You are no longer a person from Tongtian Pavilion?" ”

The young man listened to Ah Yin's words, and his body trembled even more. He knew very well that even if the shattered star was not out of the sheath, the young master's sword qi alone could still cut him into a pulp.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Ah Yin said again, "Get up." I'm not going to kill you. ”

After receiving such a promise, the boy stood up tremblingly. He looked at Ah Yin, his eyes were a little red, "Young master, I ......"

"You don't have to explain. Since this is the path you have chosen, you must be steadfast in your path. In the future, you won't be able to go back to Tsutenkaku. ”

Ah Yin said, looking back at the hut where the smoke was rising, he wanted to say goodbye to Ren, and he also wanted to say goodbye to Qiqiao. So he turned back to Ah Yin and said, "Since you are here to take over my wife's protection, you must protect them." If they make a mistake, don't talk about your master, I'll ask you about your sins. ”

The young man listened to Ah Yin's words and hurriedly responded, Ah Yin listened to his answer, and then turned his head and walked towards the courtyard.

Ren sat in the courtyard embroidering as usual, and when he saw him coming, a gentle smile immediately appeared on his face, "Ah Yin is here, sit down quickly." Later, Qiqiao will make dinner, eat and then leave. ”

“…… Good. In fact, Ren didn't know that he was leaving, she thought that he was going back to the tree as usual.

Ah Yin responded, and his eyes unconsciously fell on Qiqiao, who was busy coming in and out. He looked at the dexterous little body, and couldn't help but think that if he left here, he would never be able to eat such a delicious meal again.

At this moment, Qiqiao turned his head, and Ah Yin immediately staggered his eyes, as if he had never looked at her.

"Ah Yin, my aunt wants to embroider a purse for you, and I don't know if you like this pattern or not." Ren said, holding the embroidery sample in front of Ah Yin.

Ah Yin glanced at it and found that it was a phoenix flower, so he nodded and said, "I like it." ”

When Ren heard this, he happily took the embroidery sample back and embroidered it stitch by stitch, "If you like it, I plan to embroider two of this purse." One for you, one for you, for your fourth brother. ”

When Ren said this, he was afraid that Ah Yin wouldn't know who she was talking about, so he added, "It's my son, Xiao Zhan." When you were a child, the fourth brother often took you to play, maybe you don't remember it. ”

Ah Yin didn't say anything, because he really didn't seem to remember much, and he seemed to vaguely remember some. 's impression of Xiao Zhan is like his impression of his mother, always vague, unable to grasp or erase.

Seeing that he was silent, Ren raised his head and touched his head lovingly: "It's okay if you don't remember, the current Ah Yin is very good." ”

In this way, Ah Yin felt that his nose was a little sour, he pursed his lips and nodded, but he didn't dare to make a sound. I'm afraid that if I open my mouth, tears will flow.

Don't be so ashamed.

Qiqiao's hands and feet were still so nimble, and it didn't take long for the meal to be put on the table. Ah Yin glanced at it and found that today's meal was unusually rich, he raised his head to look at Qiqiao, and found that the other party was also looking at him with a smile.

"Ah Qiao, why do you still make meat dishes?" Ren saw the fried lotus fish on the table, and couldn't help but nag a few words, "Buddhism is pure, how can you kill." ”

Qiqiao stuck out her tongue, knowing that Ren loved her, so she said coquettishly: "Don't take it as an example, Madame tastes it, but I still like it." ”

After that, she gave Ah Yin another chopstick. There are only two fish in total, so she doesn't have one point by herself.

Ah Yin glanced at the fish in the bowl, pinched half of his body with chopsticks and returned to the Tangram bowl. Qiqiao didn't refuse, but at the same time as his face flushed, his eyes were also red.

At that moment, Ah Yin was very sure that Qiqiao knew that he was leaving. Suddenly, he also felt a little bad in his heart, and this meal was not as delicious as he imagined.

When Ah Yin left, he was still sent by Qiqiao. It's just that this time the destination is not under the phoenix tree, Qiqiao lowered his head and followed behind Ah Yin. Ah Yin walked for a while, looked up and saw the mountain gate, then turned his head to Qiqiao and said, "Go back, just send it here." ”

Qiqiao nodded, with tears in his eyes, but forced himself to smile brightly: "Childe is precious." ”

"Hmm." Ah Yin looked at her like this, his heart hurt slightly, he wanted to tell her that he might come back to see her and his wife, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything.

Ah Yin turned around and walked towards the mountain gate without looking back. He could feel that, all the while, there was a tender, warm gaze watching him go, and looking forward to him looking back.

……

Liuli and Ah Jin met in Lan Yin Ji, and the first sentence was to report Ah Yin's whereabouts.

"Ah Yin returned to Green Willow Villa last night, but I saw that he seemed to have something in his heart and was not very happy."

Ah Jin looked at Liuli with some surprise, and replied unceremoniously, "Senior Sister is worthy of being Senior Sister, and she can actually see the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of that Bing Tuozi." He was brought up by me, and I don't always know it. ”

"It's not that I'm so powerful, it's just that Ah Yin came back this time, and there are a lot of fireworks on his body, and he is not as unkind as before." Liuli ignored Ah Jin's ridicule, and said seriously: "I'm always worried about whether he has encountered some untieable knots, you also know that there is no way to communicate between the pavilion master and him, he has always confided in you, if you are free, go back to Green Willow Villa, ask him what's wrong, save him from drilling the horns alone." ”

"Okay." Ah Jin listened to Liuli's description and felt that it was necessary to take this trip, so he readily agreed.

"Also," Liuli put down the teacup, looked at Ah Jin and said, "I installed a person in the Zhu family's spy, and every full moon night in the future, that spy will go to the forest on the outskirts of Beijing to deliver news to me." He was injured before I caught him, so he was supposed to have been spotted while spying on the others...... He also said that outside the royal capital, there is an unnamed mountain villa, which is full of people from the rivers and lakes. Senior sister, you said who the person hidden in the villa would be. ”

Ah Jin listened to Liuli's words, frowned and muttered, "It won't be so coincidental that he is the one who picks the Star Pavilion." How do I think, this news came too easily, and I feel like I am invited into the urn......"

"So I didn't dare to ask our people to find out...... This matter may have to trouble you to think of a way. Ruri looked at Ah Jindao apologetically.

Ah Jin glanced at her and said, "Senior sister, I don't like to hear this." Although I am already married, my mother's family is still in the Tsutenkaku. The affairs of Tsutenkaku are my affairs. If Tsutenkaku is used by some people with a heart, my life will not be easy. Therefore, if I have to do such a thing, I am duty-bound to say that it is not troublesome. ”

Liuli listened to her words and was obviously relieved, "You can think so, Senior Sister is very pleased." I think the master and the pavilion master will be very relieved and happy. ”

Ah Jin pursed his lips, picked up the hot tea on the table and took a sip, and then said, "The affairs of that nameless villa are not in a hurry, we have to think about it in the long run." It's Lotten's side...... Recently, he has been going crazy to find out the news of Tongtian Pavilion, and it feels less like he is investigating a case, but more like a ...... Looking for someone. ”

Ah Jin said, and looked at Liuli meaningfully, but saw Liuli eating and drinking tea unmoved, as if he hadn't listened at all. Ah Jin sighed and said, "What do you think, senior sister, are you willing to tell your junior sister." ”

Hearing this, Liuli gently put down her chopsticks and said, "When I first entered the royal capital, I met him once on the street. He didn't recognize me as Purple. ”

As he spoke, Ruri reached out and touched his face, "He looked at me as if he was looking at a stranger, although I would feel heartache, but think about it...... Such...... It's good. He was safe, and I was relieved. ”

Ah Jin frowned, always feeling that Liuli had other meanings when he said this, but he couldn't think of a reason, "Then you...... I came with him this time, just to make sure he was safe? ”

"Well, that's all. Me and him...... Impossible. Ruri said, picking up the chopsticks again and eating them with relish.

Ah Jin pursed her lips and looked at Liuli for a long time without speaking, she naturally understood how difficult it was for Liuli and Luo Teng to want to be together, and she never thought of promoting the marriage between the two of them.

It's just that...... According to her understanding of Liuli, she always felt that she gave up too simply, Ah Jin looked at Liuli's seemingly unabnormal every move, and suddenly said: "Senior sister, there are some things, I hope you don't hide it from me." ”

"What can I hide from you? Let's eat the vegetables, it's going to be cold. Liuli was stunned when she heard this, and then laughed.

Ah Jin moved his chopsticks at the urging of Liuli, but the doubts that lingered in his heart were never solved.
