A few days later, Qingping, late at night.

Hua Baiqiao looked at the person who was still sitting at the table and drawing something, and asked, "Miss Qingzhi, what did you ask Wu Qianyan to do?" When I saw him the other day, he looked incredulous. ”

Qing Zhi stopped writing and replied with a mysterious smile: "You will find out in a few days." ”

"You're not afraid he'll tell the general?"

Qingzhi raised her eyebrows, sighed lightly and said, "He shouldn't have asked, otherwise he wouldn't have agreed." ”

"Huh?" Hua Baiqiao scratched her head and heard it in a fog.

"You don't have to stay up all night with me here, go and rest." Seeing that she yawned again, Qingzhi quipped.

Hua Baiqiao covered her lips and chuckled, pretending to be mysterious: "Miss Qingzhi, during this time, I have discussed with Lianqi, and I must not leave you an inch, in case the enemy has a chance." ”

"You guys, don't be so nervous, if it's the same murderer, after killing three people in a row, I guess they won't do anything in the near future..."

"That's... What if it's not the same murderer? ”

Qing Zhi put down the pen, put the things on the table into the medicine box one by one, thought for a moment and said: "If the murderer is not the same person, it can only mean that the two murderers are secretly connected, and they should think about how to get out now, and they will not kill again." ”

Hua Baiqiao frowned and said: "In this way, Lian Qi and I should not slack off, girl, don't forget, you are the best bargaining chip for the murderer to get out." ”

Qing Zhi glanced at her and nodded, "Yes, I'm their best bargaining chip, but..."

Hua Baiqiao thought she was scared, and hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, girl, even if Lian Qi and I die, we won't let the enemy succeed, besides, the general must have thought about it a long time ago, otherwise he wouldn't have sent four people to take turns guarding outside the camp a few days ago." ”

"You, don't be so flustered, you and I can think of a method, will the murderer use it?"

"Huh? I'm so bad at Lianqi martial arts, why don't you use the murderer? Are you afraid that you can't bear the general's wrath? ”

Hua Baiqiao snorted coldly and continued: "The murderer must be at the end of his rope, before he dies, he can't catch a few people and go to hell together, don't you have to jump a few more times?" ”

Qing Zhi agrees with this, "Your analogy is good, but I don't think the murderer will tie me up as a bargaining chip for him to escape." ”

"Why?" Hua Baiqiao asked, but suddenly remembered something, looked at her with some horror and asked, "Hey, no, why do I think the girl knows the murderer very well!" ”

Qing Zhi was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "I don't know why, but I always have this intuition..."

Hua Baiqiao looked her up and down, and said, "I know, the girl must have made up a statement that she wanted me to go back to rest, right?" ”

"Hahaha, I... I didn't. Qing Zhi laughed and waved her hand to explain.

"General..."There was a sound outside the tent, and Hua Baiqiao walked out in a panic.

"Hmm" Suo Huai Xiu entered the tent, and the person opposite lowered his head a little weakly.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" He asked, walking over and taking her hand.

Qing Zhi lowered her head and replied, "I'm ready to sleep..."

Hearing him chuckle, "I just heard you laugh, can you sleep?" ”

Qing Zhi blinked, looked up at him, did she smile just now?

"I don't go to bed until late every night, are you reading a medical book?" He asked, looking at the medicine box and medical book on the table.

"Hmm"

"Do you have sword practice?"

"Uh... Occasionally... bar. ”

He sat down, took her to his lap, stared at her reddened little face and shouted, "Little lazy cat? ”

She looked up unconvinced and said, "I... But I'm diligent, it's just... There are too many medical books, and when I look at them, I forget about sword practice. ”

"Three days ago, you went to the secret passage alone, are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid, I'm just going to finish the rest, by the way...."

Suo Huaixiu waited for her to follow, but she didn't say anything, only to see her scratching her head, he frowned and took her hand down, "What kind of bad habit is this?" ”

Qingzhi pursed her lips and said tentatively: "If I say it, you won't blame me, right?" ”

"Then I want you to talk about it." The ambiguous answer made her pout.

He smiled helplessly, leaned over and kissed her pouted little mouth, "What did you find in the granary?" ”

Seeing that the purpose of her going was discovered, she said with an embarrassed face: "When I went, it was the third day of the incident, and even if there were traces, they were erased by you or the murderer..."

He raised an eyebrow and looked at her, "Is Zhi'er blaming me?" ”

"Don't dare, but I guess Yuan Chongming should have been moved out of the granary by the murderer after he was killed."

"Oh? How so? “

"When Wu Qianyan and I inspected the granary, I knew about the furnishings in the warehouse, especially the places I inspected, the poisonous ones had been transferred by Wu Qianyan..."

"And that day, it was a coincidence, Li Meng and Yi Gui wanted to find fault, saying that I had something to do with the earth, and I had to go to your account to ask for an explanation..."

"Wu Qianyan and I had no choice but to agree, and when we left, we deliberately put one of the bags of poisonous grain and grass there."

"But the strange thing is that on the night Yuan Chongming died, Wu Qianyan said that the bag of grain and grass was gone..."

Suo Huaixiu stroked her hair and asked, "You suspect that Li Meng did it." ”

Qing Zhi nodded and said, "Well, because the only suspicious people who went there that day were Li Meng and Yi Gui." ”

"But both of them were killed one after another..."

Qingzhi frowned and said: "Yes, Yuan Chongming was killed, exposing the matter of grain and grass in front of the soldiers, and planting a seed of uneasiness in the hearts of the soldiers..."

"Suo Huaixiu..."

"Hmm..."

"Do you say that the deaths of Li Meng and Yi Gui were the catalyst for this incident?"

"Catalyst?"

Qing Zhi nodded and explained: "It is to expand the situation, and at this time, the enemies in the capital are probably thinking about how to pull you off the horse." ”

Suo Huaixiu hugged her tightly and asked, "Then are you afraid?" ”

Qing Zhi glanced at him, buried herself in his arms and said, "I'm afraid..."

"Afraid? Then dare to go to the secret passage alone? Zhi'er knows that the more she knows, the more dangerous it becomes. ”

I saw her drooping little face and said, "That's better than dying in vain, right?" ”

Suo Huaixiu frowned and flicked on her forehead.

"Hey, you... Why are you playing me? ”

"Don't say the word 'death' in the future!"

"Birth, old age, sickness.... Hmm..."Knowing that she would not be obedient, a certain general kissed her presciently.

"You... Aren't you cheating? Qingzhi buried himself in his arms and didn't dare to raise his head, let alone openly mention the word 'death' again to provoke.

"I... I'm just afraid of you..."

"Zhi'er, this incident has nothing to do with you, don't think nonsense."

"But... Before Lord Yuan died, he was still looking not far from my tent. ”

"Needless to say, Li Meng and Yi Gui, everyone knows what happened outside your tent a few days ago, and others must have thought that I couldn't tolerate them, so they killed them..."

Suo Huaixiu glanced at her and said, "You, Yuan Chongming was killed, and his body was moved outside the granary, leading the matter to the fact that the grain and grass were poisoned..."

"But this matter was suppressed by me, and I thought about going back to Beijing to ask for guilt after a while, but it seems that the people in the shadows did not give me this opportunity..."

Qing Zhi frowned and asked, "That's why he killed both Li Meng and Yi Gui?" ”

Suo Huaixiu nodded, "That's right, do you know who Li Meng is?" ”

"Could it be that it has something to do with Yuan Chongming?"

"Li Meng and Yuan Chongming are both confidants of Gu Ye, the secretary of the Ministry of War..."

Qing Zhi's eyes widened and asked, "Gu Tingzong's father?" ”

"That's right."

Qing Zhi sat up straight, and the uneasiness in her heart became bigger and bigger, "This... Is this trying to kill you? ”

Suo Huaixiu frowned, and the latter was stunned for a moment, realizing that he seemed to have said the word "death" again just now.

"Uh, I didn't mean to." Then she covered her mouth with her hands and buried her in his arms in a flattering manner.

"You..."

"That's why my father is in a hurry to return to Beijing..."

Qing Zhi looked at him and asked, "Are those people who have been grudges for a long time?" ”

Suo Huaixiu leaned over to look at her and said, "It's time for you to know about the Suo family." ”

"What... What..."Qing Zhi panicked, actually stammered a little, and muttered in a low voice, "How did I get into the habit of stammering with Lianqi..."

Suo Huaixiu pinched her little face and said, "Why did you still pull Lian Qi?" ”

"When did you see me not stammering?"

"Ahem..."Qingzhi smiled unkindly, "I.... No. ”

"Then I'm going to compile a list of the quotes you stuttered when you and I were together..."

"How dare you—" She was ready to pounce on her like an enraged kitten.

"Thinking about those things in the past, I always feel that I am lucky to have met you first, otherwise, at this time, you..."

Qing Zhihu looked at him suspiciously and answered: "It's someone else's bride? ”

"Shhh You tap! As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that his face was cold, his waist was tight, and he almost strangled himself to death.

Outside the tent, Hua Baiqiao's face turned red, this... The general is not going to rest in the tent, is he?

"Zhi'er can't marry anyone but me."

Listening to his dangerous voice, Qing Zhi nodded, buried herself in his arms and said, "Suo Huaixiu, then you must be careful in the future and bring more people with you." ”

"Okay, you are the same, whether it is Yanling Pass or Qingping, there are our enemies lurking in the shadows."

"You... Do you know who is in the shadows? ”

"I know some, but they don't seem to want to show up in the light yet..."

Qing Zhi only felt that he was not clear enough, and asked: "Could it be that all these days, you have been playing against the people behind the scenes, fighting psychological warfare?" ”

Suo Huaixiu shook his head and said, "It's not a game, but I want to know how deep their roots are." ”

"Do you see that?"

"I probably know a little, but his influence is too wide-ranging, and I can't compete with it alone."

Qing Zhi subconsciously said: "That can let Feng Muya help..."

Suo Huaixiu glanced at her and asked, "How do you know that he is not a bad person?" ”

"If he is an enemy, how can I escape when I am in Rongcheng?"

glanced at him, and asked the doubts in his heart: "You and him... Did you make any transactions in the shadows? ”

"It's not a deal..."

Qing Zhi pursed her lips and muttered quietly, "Well, okay." ”

Suo Huaixiu saw that she was not very interested, pinched her little face and asked, "What does Zhi'er want to know about the Suo family?" ”

Hearing him say this, Qingzhi was not very happy in his heart, and the words he said were like farewell words before leaving.

"I don't have anything to know, I think you'll tell me later."

Hearing this, a ripple rippled in his heart, and after she said, he hugged her tightly and said, "Okay, then later, when we return to Qingyun Pavilion, I will tell you everything, is Zhi'er willing to tell me all your things?" ”

Qing Zhi was stunned for a moment, inexplicably panicked in her heart, and thought a little weakly, "Didn't he send someone to check my affairs?" Could it be..."

"Grunt" in his heart, "Could it be that Gan Tang told everything to Fengmuya?" And then the wind curtain told him everything? ”
