The cold wind blowing in the air is no joke at night.

The Nine Immortal Cities are all near the mountains, and it is extremely cold in the morning and evening, so you need to add clothes.

When Su Pei returned to the mansion in a sedan chair, the Silver Bell cavalry had already left Jiang's mansion for about half an hour.

Because it was a secret letter to the Jiang family, the Silver Bell cavalry came and went without making extra stops, which made many people wonder in their hearts.

So in the past half an hour, the cronies in the Nine Immortals' old ministers' mansions have come to the door one after another to inquire whether there is a change in Shengjing, and whether they can understand a little bit of their will, and they have a good idea.

Jiang Changyuan did not show up, and the steward replied euphemistically one by one.

As soon as Su Pei turned into the courtyard, he saw his son standing tall and kneeling, his shirt was taken off and tied around his waist, and there were several red marks on his back, which was punished.

Hearing the footsteps behind him, Jiang Tingye didn't look back, his eyebrows were frosted, his fists were clenched and placed on his thighs, but his eyes were still extremely firm and sharp, as if he wanted to see a hole in the closed door of the opposite side that was transparent but closed.

"Beaten?" Su Pei stood next to Jiang Tingye.

Jiang Tingye didn't speak, and snorted.

Su Pei took out her right hand from the gauntlet, lifted Jiang Tingye's ear and twisted it to her side: "Stinky boy, the old lady is talking to you!" ”

Jiang Tingye sighed three times, grinning to the root of his ears: "It hurts, it hurts!" Mother! Hurt! ”

The ears were red from the cold, and being twisted like this was more like dripping blood, Jiang Tingye screamed miserably, Su Pei let go of his hand, and glanced at Jiang Tingye, who was covering his ears and rubbing them: "What are you doing again?" ”

It's okay not to ask, this question, Jiang Tingye's hand movement stopped, he immediately knelt down in the position just now, and when Su Pei looked over again, he saw that Jiang Tingye's eyes were completely red when he stared hard.

Something happened to Sheng Jing.

Su Pei didn't ask any more, patted Jiang Tingye's shoulder, and said, "Wait." He strode toward the room up the stairs.

Before she entered the door, she handed the gauntlet to the maidservant next to her, and then suddenly reached out and pushed the door - the door threw a large arc and hit the back of Jiang Changyuan's head who was standing next to her.

Jiang Changyuan hissed and endured, raised his hand and touched his head, without waiting for Su Pei to ask him what he was doing here, Jiang Changyuan had already pulled Su Pei to his side, and closed the door with a kick.

He put his finger on his lips: "Shhh ”

Su Pei took a deep breath: "What's wrong?" ”

Jiang Changyuan was stunned for a moment, then frowned, and after a long sigh, his eyebrows pulled and his eyelids went up, blinked, and after half a sound, he deliberately lowered his voice and said in a dumb voice: "The Silver Bell Cavalry has come." ”

"And then?" Su Pei stared at Jiang Changyuan, clasping his hands together and unconsciously clenching tighter.

"Yes. The queen is dead. After Jiang Changyuan said this, he almost didn't hold back, he subconsciously reached out and held Su Pei's arm first, "The emperor wrote it himself, saying that he committed suicide." ”

"Suicide?!" Although Su Pei was prepared, she never expected that things would be so bad, she gritted her teeth and laughed, mother and daughter were heart-to-heart, how could the pain of this instant backlash be easily bearable, "My good daughter followed him to Shengjing, but for three years, why did she commit suicide?!" Did he Qi Ying make it clear?! ”

Su Pei's voice was very loud, and the last sentence was already nasal, and the tears fell without warning, and Su Pei wiped them away.

Jiang Changyuan didn't stop saying anything that he couldn't call the emperor by name, he withdrew his hand behind his back, and took two steps back and forth, as if he was thinking about something, very entangled, Su Pei closed her eyes and took a deep breath, and when she opened her eyes again, she was already calm for two minutes, she sat down next to her, pinched the handle of the chair and asked, "Why is Ye'er kneeling outside?" You hit the wounds on your body? ”

"He's going to Shengjing." Jiang Changyuan said.

Su Pei slammed the table: "Let him go!" ”

Jiang Changyuan turned around: "The emperor did not summon him. ”

"My daughters are dead, do you still care about the broken imperial order?! I'm telling you, I don't believe what anyone in Shengshangkyo says! We can't move, we have to let Ye'er go in person, how Wan'er died, let me find out clearly! Commit suicide?! My daughter is not such a fragile person, we are far away, I don't know what happened in the palace, how much she has been wronged, and how desperate she is to commit suicide?! Who gave her the grievances?! Find them out one by one, and kill the old lady one by one! Su Pei gritted her teeth, her heart and lungs were burning painfully, she hated so much that her eyes were dripping with blood, this punch smashed down, directly smashed the sandalwood table, and the wooden slag didn't hurt when she cut her hand, "Who dares to stop it, the old lady will sacrifice the knife now!" ”

Jiang Changyuan hurriedly walked over, took Su Pei's hand and looked at it carefully, and said distressedly: "Look at you, every time you are in a hurry, you don't care about anything, what are you anxious about!" I said there was no summons, and I didn't say I wouldn't let him go, Ye'er just had a temper with you, and he was too anxious, and when he met Wan'er's affairs, he messed up, and all the cleverness on weekdays became reckless. It's ugly, what is the emperor's face? If you really want to be angry with Ye'er, not only is the matter not clear, but there may be how many people secretly want to mix up this pool of water, and rush to deduct two pots of on our Jiang family, think about it carefully, Wan'er is dead, and now there are so many eyes, where are they staring? ”

Su Pei narrowed her eyes: "Where are you staring?" The power of the queen? ”

"Not bad." Jiang Changyuan raised his hand and pointed outside the door, "Beat him to the Silver Bell Cavalry!" Since he wants to go to Shengjing, he can't leave the handle, the stinky boy fell into the emperor's will and almost stepped on it, and he was not wronged by a few boards! I told him to go back, and he was going to kneel in the courtyard! Dare to threaten him, Lao Tzu and me, you can talk about it. Hmph, it's okay to kneel, and then calm down your mind later, so that you can listen to the words! ”

Su Pei also snorted: "You are hard-mouthed, so what were you doing sneakily by the door just now?" It's not that I feel sorry for my son! ”

was exposed, Jiang Changyuan hurriedly interrupted Su Pei's words and pressed her to sit down: "This matter, you have to come back to discuss." ”

"Have you figured out how to go to Shengjing?" Su Pei was angry and stared at Jiang Changyuan.

Jiang Changyuan bowed his head and glanced sideways at the middle of the room: "A good knife with a scabbard, the long night and the bright moon, since you are going, how can you miss the lady?" ”

Su Pei's eyes trembled, she took a deep breath, she didn't know whether she was excited or sad, and said, "Okay, well said, let Ye'er come in!" ”

The door was wide open.

The warm light shrouded Jiang Tingye's body, and he raised his head and clearly saw his father and mother sitting in the main seat.

He heard Supe's voice coming: "Get dressed, come in and talk." ”

There was a lot of movement in the room, and when the door was opened at this time, the two must have made a decision.

Jiang Tingye quickly put on the clothes that were frozen into ice lumps, and he didn't care about the pain of the wound, stood up straight with his stiff and sore knees, and strode into the room.

He stood with his hands down, stubbornness written on his face, and said, "I want to go to Shengjing!" ”

Jiang Changyuan was angry, kneeling in vain, and the stinky boy's brain didn't think of anything at all: "What if you won't go?!" Are you still going to kneel all the time?! ”

After speaking, seeing Jiang Tingye looking at him with blazing eyes, Jiang Changyuan choked and coughed, bastard, he really planned like this!

"Night." Su Pei beckoned to Jiang Tingye, and when Jiang Tingye came to him, he said with a cold gaze, "Remember the black iron box you have always been curious about?" ”

Jiang Tingye nodded: "Remember, my father hid like a baby, locked five layers, and I couldn't open it." ”

Su Pei patted his arm: "Tomorrow, open the box for you." ”

The light in Jiang Tingye's eyes brightened by two points, but it dimmed and firmed for a moment: "Mother, I don't want a box, I want to go to Shengjing!" ”

Su Pei's eyes were filled with tears, and she clenched Jiang Tingye's arm: "The box is going to be opened, and Sheng Jing is going to go, but now you have to listen to your mother." Go back first. ”

.

Following.

Xiong Ge stood by the second long pillar of the corridor, and saw that Jiang Tingye had been sitting here all morning with a violent face, and he didn't dare to approach.

Normally, when Jiang Tingye shows this kind of face, it is best to stand farther away, so as not to be thrown out as a sandbag, thinking like this, Xiong Ge touched his waist, and there was a faint pain.

Due to the frequency of probes, Jiang Tingye, who was restrained on the edge of the rampage, turned his head and glanced at him: "Standing so far away, you serve me or I serve you?!" ”

Xiong Ge shrunk his neck, and immediately ran over and squatted down the steps, looking up at Jiang Tingye: "Master, Madame went out early in the morning, don't worry, you will definitely come back before lunch, and the little one will go to you to listen and listen?" ”

Jiang Tingye raised his foot and kicked him up: "Hurry up." ”

"Run!"

Xiong Ge shouted yes, and he ran away as soon as he slipped through the smoke.

He just disappeared from Jiang Tingye's sight for two seconds, and then came back again, following behind a servant girl's ass.

It was the person next to Su Pei, Jiang Tingye got up at once, and walked quickly to the maidservant: "What about my mother?!" ”

"Back to the young master, the slave maid is here to bring a message to the lady." The maid spoke in a very soft voice, "Madame said, please go to the Earl's Mansion after the young master has dinner, walk the wall, go east, deep in the bamboo forest, there are people waiting." ”

After speaking, Wei Yi blessed his body and retreated.

Jiang Tingye pondered for two seconds, he didn't understand, he didn't understand anyway, he still pondered a fart! Copy guys!

Xiong Ge stepped forward, followed Jiang Tingye's footsteps to the room, saw Jiang Tingye tinkering in the room for a long time, turned out two boxes and tied them tightly on his back and was about to go out, and hurriedly asked, "Master, what are you doing here?" ”

One of the boxes was Jiang Ting's iron box for money at night, which Xiong Ge recognized.

The iron box has never seen the world, and it has never left Jiang Tingye's bed, but now it has been turned out, and it has to be taken out, but it is a big surprise.

Jiang Tingye raised his eyebrows: "Are you deaf?" Of course, it's to go to the Earl's Palace. ”

Xiong Ge: "Madame let you have a meal, and the small one will be prepared for you?" ”

Jiang Tingye rolled his eyes: "What else are you eating?!" Don't follow! Go by yourself! ”

After speaking, he jumped up, and now he was so anxious that he didn't even leave the door, he stepped directly on the wall, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Out of the gate of Jiang's mansion, Jiang Tingye glanced left and right, remembered the advice to walk the wall, and chose the path to go.

He often passed by the Earl of Yiyong's Mansion, but he never entered it once, Yiyong Jue is a lady, Jiang Tingye knows it, and has a good relationship with his mother, but it does not hinder Jiang Tingye from being unfamiliar with Yiyong Jue.

There is nothing special about the east wall, neither higher nor shorter than other walls, Jiang Tingye glanced outside, and decisively entered the mansion with his strength.

As soon as he landed, before he had time to turn around to see where the bamboo forest was, a hidden weapon suddenly flew in the air, and it was there in a moment with the sound of the wind.

Jiang Tingye maintained a tilted head posture, his ears were hot, and his eyes were staring at the "secret weapon" that was plotting against him-a chopstick that was still trembling up and down in the back half.

Chopsticks?!

Being able to use bamboo chopsticks with such power can be regarded as a very high level of control over one's own skills.

Jiang Tingye squinted his eyes and scolded excitedly: "! Good Kung Fu! ”

After scolding, he glanced back.

The east courtyard entered the wall near the path, and ten steps into it was the bamboo forest, and he looked around and didn't see any figure at all.

One chopstick was thrown out, but the other did not follow, indicating that this person was extremely confident in himself, either the person who came did not have enough kung fu to dodge, and knew that he could not fight and fled in the wilderness, or the person who came did a good job of dodging, and the second attack was even more missed, and the effort was in vain.

Jiang Tingye was very curious, how to eat with a chopstick? !

Thinking like this, he couldn't help but speed up his pace and walk towards the depths of the bamboo forest, which was not as deep as he thought, nor as mysterious as he thought.

At the end of a pavilion, three or two stone piles are piled up into a rockery, and the smoke of the stove floats out of a layer, but there is a sense of dust.

It's just that there is no one in the pavilion, Jiang Tingye took two steps forward, and found that there was a half-eaten lunch on the stone platform in the pavilion, and there was really only one chopstick next to it.

He's a ruthless man!

He loves it!

Jiang Tingye hooked the corners of his mouth, this bamboo forest was so quiet that something was wrong, he reached out and probed the edge of the bowl, and it felt warm to the touch.

The person who threw out the chopsticks was still eating here, Jiang Tingye withdrew his hand, suddenly untied the knots of the burden, grabbed a corner and turned around to resist, the iron box collided with the long sword slashed behind him, and made a sonorous sound.

Jiang Tingye sent his strength to pull the burden back, took advantage of the situation to carry it to his back and tied the burden again, and the person who took two steps back on the opposite side and regained his body and put the long sword behind him with his backhand was also looking up at him.

It's a guy in white.

The eyebrows and eyes are delicate, and the fairy wind is bone.

From Jiang Tingye's point of view, he is also a handsome son, like a fairy.

He looked at Jiang Tingye, obviously the first to attack twice, but he showed a gentle smile that made people suspect that he had a problem, and his voice was like a spring breeze, which was so good: "Yegongzi came at the wrong time." ”

Jiang Tingye clenched his burden: "Do you recognize me?" My mother said that there are people waiting for me in the bamboo forest, is it you? ”

The man in white tilted his head and smiled: "It should be." ”

Jiang Tingye sighed, and after listening to his answer, he took off the burden on his back again, turned out the black gold box, and handed it to the man in white: "Mother said that someone can help me open this box, can you open it?" ”

The white-clothed boy glanced at the things in Jiang Tingye's hand, took out a handkerchief to wipe the sword in his hand, and said quietly: "The night boy came, didn't you ask who I was?" ”

After speaking, he raised his eyes, and there was a look of asterity in his eyes.

Jiang Tingye pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled evilly: "The master of the Earl of Yiyong's Mansion is the Lord of Yiyong, who once led the three armies of Yiyong to capture the fortress of Chang Qiang, opening up a new road for the Jiang clan to break the Genggu Pass for a hundred years. ”

"Volunteers, women's soldiers. The spear is now, and the five levels are shocked. ”

"Lord Yiyong has never been married in his life, it is said that he rescued a child from the wolf's mouth on the bank of the Huai River, raised by his side, regarded as his own child, and the huge Earl of Yiyong's mansion is a girl's family, do you ask this question and look down on me?"

The white-clothed man on the opposite side was amused by Jiang Tingye's tone, and no longer wiped his long sword, but lightly retracted it into the sheath and walked in the direction of Jiang Tingye.

Passing by Jiang Tingye's side, he put the long sword on the small platform of the pavilion, and before he turned around, he heard Jiang Tingye say: "It is rumored that the adopted son of the righteous and brave lord is weak and has never practiced martial arts, it seems that the rumors are always untrue, and it is better to see it is true." ”

The boy in white chuckled: "Avoid strife, helpless, although the mother is only a woman, but there is a man can not reach the transparency, but unfortunately, the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, mother said, today, the young can also fight, for the way of confusion in their hearts, to go their own way, from the night boy and I to meet, this road has begun, this is not also why the night boy came here?" ”

Jiang Tingye turned sideways and looked at his back: "Why did you abandon the spear and learn the sword?" ”

The boy in white also turned around: "Why did the young man know the emperor's decree and not believe the emperor's decree?" ”

"My sister won't die."

"The essence of martial arts, different paths to the same end, guns and swords, there is no difference."

The four looked at each other, and saw the same resolute gaze.

After a while, Jiang Tingye finally chuckled: "Qingfeng Mingyue, to prove the heart of the minister, the righteous and brave lord has high hopes for you, Mingyue Chen." ”

"Yegongzi praises falsely." Ming Yuechen raised his hand and made a slight series.

"Box, open it?" Jiang Tingye held the black iron box and shook it in front of him.

The corners of Ming Yuechen's eyes bent, and he felt out the long rope hanging around his neck, and a black iron key appeared in front of Jiang Tingye.

Jiang Tingye's eyes lit up, and he suddenly turned around and hugged the iron box on the ground.

Ming Yuechen tilted his head to look at him, and said suspiciously: "Night Boy? ”

Jiang Tingye didn't seem to hear it, and opened the iron box by himself, and the bright silver inside almost shook Ming Yuechen's eyes.

Jiang Tingye stuffed the iron box into Ming Yuechen's hand, and Ming Yuechen was stunned: "Ye Gongzi, who are you?" ”

"Here you go." Jiang Tingye clapped his hands, reached out and took off the rope hanging from Ming Yuechen's neck, he shook the key, "The key, mine." ”

Ming Yuechen was embarrassed: "Ye Gongzi, the box was meant to be opened, this is my mother's order, what are you going to do with the silver?" ”

Jiang Tingye was busy opening the box, where did he have the heart to reason with him, and said perfunctorily: "This silver is originally stored in Shengjing secretly!" You helped me open the box, I can go to Beijing, so naturally I have to pay you! ”

Ming Yuechen blinked: "But... I'm going to go with the night boy, and besides, the money has been given to me, if you go by yourself, will you still be entangled? ”

Jiang Ting's action of opening the box paused at night, and he looked up at Ming Yuechen.

This guy has a harmless face of humans and animals.,But when you fight, you're very ruthless.,It's really。。。 The contrast is too great.

However, his words reminded Jiang Tingye, Jiang Tingye raised his hand to close the iron box, took it back from Ming Yuechen, and muttered: "Don't pull it down!" Then he locked it and put it back on his back.

Ming Yuechen raised his finger and pointed at the black iron box: "Night Boy, the five locks need to be opened with five keys, if you take a key like this and want to open the five locks." It can't be opened. ”

He squinted and smiled, and calmly pulled out another bunch of keys in his sleeve.

Jiang Tingye looked at his smiling face, and suddenly felt the urge to punch him down.

However, the key was in someone's hand, Jiang Tingye still endured it, gritted his teeth and took a deep breath and squeezed out a smile: "Then why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

Ming Yuechen still squinted and smiled, and reached out to take the black iron box and unlock it: "Ye Gongzi didn't ask." ”

Jiang Tingye let out a sigh of relief, for the sake of him opening the box, he was not angry.

As the last lock was opened, Jiang Tingye and Ming Yuechen's eyes converged on the last palm-sized black iron box.

Ming Yuechen raised his hand to open the lid of the box, Jiang Tingye stepped forward to take a look, and then looked at Ming Yuechen, and said in unison: "What is this?!" ”

.

Meanwhile.

In the back garden of the Earl's Palace, Su Pei was drinking tea with Mingyi.

Lunch had just been served, and it was the time to be lazy and tired, but the two of them were in good spirits at this time, talking and laughing happily.

Su Pei glanced at the sky and said softly, "The children should have met." ”

"In a place like Shengshangjing, let them break in." Minghua put down the teacup, her eyebrows were sharp, "Save them from thinking that the Jiang family and my lady really have no successor!" ”

Su Pei clenched his fists lightly: "I always feel that my daughter is not dead." ”

Hearing this, Ming Yan immediately reached out and held Su Pei's hand: "You have to believe that no one in this world can kill Wan'er, if she is alive, she will definitely be found, if she commits suicide, what does it matter if I go back to Shengjing with you?!" In short, there must be a reasonable answer, the founding queen, how can you allow sluts to be presumptuous?! ”

Su Pei was relieved: "There is always you with me." ”

The two men clasped hands tightly and did not let go until a moment later.

"Since you want to go, not only do you have to go openly, but you also have to go with great fanfare! Not only should the old ministers of the Nine Immortals know, but also the people of Shengjing should know! Minghua squinted his eyes slightly, and his voice was very powerful, "I thought this thing could be locked here for a lifetime, who knew that it was only three years, and it forced this thing to appear in the world, it was really a troubled time and could be united, but peace beckoned ghosts, I want to see who is so bold and ambitious!" ”

The black iron box contained the golden knife cast from the golden laurel crown of the emperor and queen of the Southern Huai Dynasty at the time of the founding of the country.

There are only two in the world.

One is in the palace, held by the emperor himself.

One is in the Nine Immortals, the Jiang family is guarded, the iron box is sealed, and the key is grasped by the righteous bravery, which is for the gram.

Only when the Jiang family and the righteous warrior stand up at the same time can they open the iron box and take out the golden knife.

This knife is supreme right.

It's a sharp blade.

The power is too great, the imperial power is suspicious, if it weren't for Jiang Wan, this knife might never be taken out.

Now.

The golden knife is in the world, and the situation in Beijing is about to change!
