Chapter 290: What a name

This high-grade palace maid can also get half a decent house, and Qilan is just a small maid, no matter what status she has in the Nine Heavens Xuan Palace, when she arrives in the palace, she has to act according to the rules of the palace.

Therefore, this room is not big, at most only half the size of the inner room of Gaowei Lake, the tables and chairs are all piled up in it, and the space to move around is really pitiful.

"Qilan? You ......"

Hush!

Before Gao Yuhu finished speaking, his mouth was covered by a pair of cold hands, and he was dragged directly into the large cabinet on the side without struggling.

There are only a few palace maids' clothes in the cabinet, and there is a faint fragrance of jasmine on them, which is Qilan's favorite taste on weekdays, and the clothes are steamed with flower petals every day, and even Gao Weihu's body has some fragrance.

"Qilan, what are you doing here?"

"My eldest sister is here."

She had been hiding inside for a whole hour, not because she was afraid of her sister, but because she didn't want to take a picture at this time, after all, it would make the two of them even more embarrassed.

And Qixiu was like an ownerless wandering spirit, wandering around in the palace all night, and Qilan didn't know what her purpose was!

"County Lord, I know a little bit about the master."

Qilan did not resist the truth as Gao Weihu imagined, but said everything more bluntly, "The eldest sister suddenly betrayed the Nine Heavens Xuangong and became the new master of the secret gate, which is really a bit too strange, so I have been secretly investigating, and sure enough, the eldest sister has been in contact with the master." ”

She lowered her voice and said, her hands tightly grasped Gao Weihu's wrists, the environment was too dim, and she couldn't see the other party's expression at all, but the eyes that were shining with golden light were extremely clear.

"Qilan, since you already know about this, why didn't you tell the county lord earlier?"

hurriedly pulled out the camp and left the wolf city, if he could retreat with his whole body, it would be nothing to say, but whenever anyone was implicated because of this, Gao Weihu didn't know how to face Qilan who was hiding everything.

Although this girl has her own hardships, after all, she has grown up beside the palace master of the Xuangong Palace since she was a child, and she has long regarded her as her mother.

Now that the relatives around him, one after another betrayed the original intention, it is good that Qilan has not collapsed, and now that he is willing to say all this, Gao Weihu feels comforted in his heart.

It's just that......

"Qilan, if the county lord can take care of it for you, even if you directly smash that mess on the head of the county lord, the county lord can take it on for you."

Gao Weihu deliberately increased the volume of each word, although Qixiu would come to the door at any time, but this word still had to be said clearly, "But have you ever thought about it, if the county lord can't catch it, what will you do?" ”

After going through two lives, Gao Weihu in the previous life was indecisive and finally threw his life away in the palace.

And now, Gao Weihu doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past and make himself stronger, and it is the only way to get out of the predicament, but even if he is a strong person, he has difficulties that he can't do.

Ay......

Qilan sighed heavily, and the hand on Gao Weihu's wrist became harder and harder, as if a cold air was drilling into her muscles and bones, "County Lord, one person does things and one person is responsible, I understand the truth that one life is worth one life." ”

"Even if you die, will the Xuan Palace Palace Master and your sister be able to stop what they do?"

Gao Yuhu said helplessly, and then held Qilan's hand again, "If the county lord is you, you will definitely not be vague about this matter, and you will definitely tell you everything you know." ”

There is no need to ask carefully, Gao Weihu can be 100% sure that Qilan must have something to hide, and the explanation just now is just perfunctory.

This girl's scheming is deep, not as straightforward as Xiaoqing, maybe it's because she came out of the Nine Heavens Xuan Palace, and everyone has more eyes than the people outside, and it can be regarded as the ability to protect herself.

"Qilan, the ...... of the county lord"

"I said."

Before Gao Weihu could finish speaking, Qilan said straightforwardly, "A story, is the county lord willing to listen to it?" ”

It's a story again!

Gao Weihu is completely rooted in the pile of stories today, Qilan has said this part, she can't refuse, and she can only nod her head.

With the permission of the county lord, Qilan's golden eyes became longer and longer, as if she had returned to the day of the year.

"Xiu, are you really determined to advance and retreat with my master and me?"

The voice of the palace master of the Xuangong Palace came out of the stone gate intermittently, and Qilan calmed down cross-legged, pricked up her ears, and listened carefully to the sound inside.

"Master, you saved the lives of my sister and me, no matter what choice you make, I will always be on your side."

"Xiu, from now on, I will only believe in you as a teacher, but you also have to remember that once you make up your mind, you will become the demon girl referred to by Qianfu, can you think clearly?"

"The apprentice understands."

"For my sake, my sister willingly became the master's right and left hand, which should have been an extremely honorable thing, after all, if you want to become the palace master of the next Nine Heavens Xuan Palace, you must please the master."

Halfway through the story, Qilan's face became more and more ugly, and by the light of the torches in the hands of the Imperial Forest Army outside, he could vaguely see the wry smile on the corner of his mouth.

"But who knows, what my sister wants to do revolves around the word betrayal from beginning to end, if I had known earlier, I would never have let her sacrifice for me."

Qilan's idea was too simple, she thought that the conversation behind the stone gate was just to train her sister to become the next palace master of the Nine Heavens Xuan Palace, but in fact, it was just a beautiful prayer.

But because of his own innocence, he watched his sister step by step into the abyss of no return, and this self-blame has tortured that fragile heart to the point of losing half a point of temperature.

"County Lord, do you remember the night the assassin carried out the assassination?"

"Qilan, don't tell the county lord, you already knew."

"Yes."

Qilan actually wants to tell everything and everything, there is nothing worth hiding, "I overheard it from my sister, I know that someone will pretend to be Concubine Qi to assassinate, but I can't tell this matter." ”

"Why?"

"If the master's plan is broken, she will definitely take all her anger out on her sister."

In the entire Nine Heavens Xuan Palace, there are hundreds of people up and down, and only Qixiu knows what the Palace Master thinks.

If the assassination suddenly failed that day, the palace master of the Xuan Palace would definitely suspect that Qixiu had secretly leaked the news, and by that time, even if she had a hundred mouths, it would be impossible to tell.

There is no room for sand in the eyes of the palace master of the Xuan Palace, if anyone dares to betray her, she will make the traitor disappear from this world at any cost.

"County Lord, I can't let my sister lose her life, that's my only relative in this world."

"Do you know how many people have almost been killed because of your selfishness?"

Gao Weihu did not care about his own life and death, and admitting the identity of the daughter of the phoenix meant that everything was involuntarily.

But......

"If your sister can really turn back, even if you don't do anything, she will definitely find a way to climb out of the abyss."

Whether or not to get rid of the control of the palace master of the Xuan Palace depends on the woman's own thoughts, now that there are Gao Weihu and Beitang Jinyu as backers, even if the power of the Nine Heavens Xuan Palace is too huge, it will not be able to defeat the royal family after all.

But in fact, Qixiu did not seek help from Gao Weihu, and even kept hiding the truth from her biological sister, obviously this woman was willing to stay by the side of the palace master of Xuangong, even if she was doing crazy things.

"If a person's heart has already been blackened, even if you want to shake off her faults, it can only be a fantasy."

Every word that Gao Yuhu said in his mouth was like a sharp knife, poking hard into Qilan's heart.

Although this language is too sharp, if you want to wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep, you must make a lot of effort to let her know that it hurts, so that she will not continue to pretend.

"Qilan, now that it's time for you to be sober!"

The sound of choking echoed in the small cabinet, and Qilan's body trembled more and more, "That's right...... I'm sorry. ”

Gao Weihu's words were like a mallet, smashing her confused head, making her muddy thoughts clear a little bit.

"County Lord, it's all my fault that I'm small-minded, and I only care about whether my sister is dead or alive, which hurts everyone."

"Luckily, no one has been hurt by this, and you don't have to blame yourself too much."

She patted Qilan on the shoulder, and then carefully pushed open a crack in the door, and looked out along the gap, only to see a woman in red flashing outside, as if she had discovered their existence.

It's really a pot that can't be opened, and the woman in red, who disappeared for a while, suddenly appeared at this time, and Gao Weihu really wanted to eat her alive.

Boom!

Knock knock!

The footsteps approached the cabinet little by little, but just as her hand closed the cabinet door, the woman in red suddenly took her hand back.

"You're here!"

The woman in red turned her head abruptly and looked at Gui Wan who was standing in front of her, "Godmother, calculate the time, we must not have seen each other for three or four years, right?" ”

"Don't call me Godmother, I don't have anything to do with you."

Gui Wan said angrily, then pulled out the long sword at her waist again, and pointed at the woman in red in front of her, "You are not my opponent, if you don't want to die here today, it's best to get out of here quickly." ”

Her kung fu is superb, and she is by no means worse than the palace master of the Xuangong Palace, especially the light skills of the eaves and walls, which is even more jaw-dropping.

"Haha...... Godmother, your martial arts ability is not given to you by your godfather? ”

The woman in red laughed disdainfully, not taking Gui Wan in front of her seriously at all, "Before I came to Wolf City, my godfather had already instructed me to tell me where your life was, but if I want your life, just hook your fingers, and you will go down below to have tea with Lord Yama." ”

"If you could really touch a single hair of me, you'd still talk this nonsense here?"

What the woman in red said was indeed right, this kung fu came from that bastard, Gui Wan didn't want to admit it, but after all, she couldn't deceive herself.
