He recalled the fishy smell he had smelled in several houses in the west of the city that day, and always felt that something he had overlooked, but when he wanted to think about it, he could not find it.

I got up and dressed up, and wanted to go to the courtyard to have a look, but suddenly someone came from outside the courtyard.

"The third master asked me to take a look at whether the master has woken up!" The visitor asked urgently through the courtyard gate.

A very low voice replied, "I haven't woken up yet, do you want to wait a while?" ”

I can obviously feel the hesitation of the person who came, "Then I'll wait here, I'm just afraid that I will miss the matter of the third master and the master......"

The person in the door also hesitated, "Why don't I go and take a look?" ”

"Don't, the third master said that the master has always slept lightly, and you will wake her up when you move, I'd better wait!" The people outside the door hurriedly stopped, he had been following the third master for some years, the master had always slept lightly, and his body was not safe, even if there was a big matter, the third master did not allow them to quarrel with the master.

Qin Yan listened to what he said, and put out the idea of going out, but she was afraid of disturbing her rest.

Suddenly, I heard Mu Qingyan's voice calling, "Is it Qufeng City outside the door?" ”

The courtyard door opened from the inside, and the people outside the door stepped into the courtyard and replied in a low voice: "Master, the subordinate is Qufeng City!"

"Come in!" There was a kind of majesty in Mu Qingyan's voice, the kind of majesty that only the head of a big gang and a big faction had, which was different from her at any time.

Qin Yan pushed the door out and calmly walked out of the courtyard. He knew that Mu Qingyan had many secrets that no one could hear, and it was better for him not to know, so as not to embarrass her.

Mu Qingyan frowned slightly as he listened to his departing footsteps, "What did Sanjiu ask you to do, so urgent?" ”

"Master, news from the capital!" Qu Fengcheng reached out and took out an urgent item sealed with fire paint from his sleeve pocket, and handed it to Mu Qingyan with both hands, "The third master went to the Songlin Temple outside the city, and I was afraid that I would miss your business, so I asked my subordinates to send it to you quickly!" ”

This is the person who has been used by Sanjiu for a long time, the secret envoy of the You Long Xin Pavilion, who wanders around the city on weekdays to collect information, and only obeys the orders of 391 people. Mu Qingyan knew his true details, so he called him in.

"How's it going?" Mu Qingyan asked him as he unfolded the letter.

Qu Feng Cheng still bowed, "Back to the master, in addition to the three people who were captured alive last night, there are five people who have returned to Songlin Temple." He raised his head and told Mu Qingyan in the shape of his mouth, "The third master disguised himself as one of the people who was arrested and blended into the Songlin Temple. ”

Mu Qingyan nodded, his eyes did not leave the letterhead, and after reading it, he folded it before asking him again, "There is an urgent item in Beijing these days, you can send it here directly, and you don't have to wait outside the door." ”

"Yes, master!" He respectfully bowed deeply, "Subordinates retire!" ”

Mu Qingyan put the letter back in the envelope, put on his shoes and sat down on the chair next to the table, frowning and thinking about the contents of the letter: all the letters from Anxinlou to and from the capital were intercepted; Liwang's people have been in private contact with the Seven Princesses and Xiang Tianqi; Recently, a group of martial arts experts have been mixed into the capital, and they have failed to break into Shuiyue Villa; No trace of Chu Li has appeared......

When Qin Yan came back, he saw her sitting there in a daze, sat down beside her with a little distress, took her by the way, leaned on her in his arms, and asked her softly, "Why did you start to be stunned again?" ”

Mu Qingyan didn't want to speak, so she stuffed the letter in her hand into his hand and motioned for him to read it for himself.

Qin Yan Zhanxin still pretended to be back, "Although Xiang Tianqi is impulsive and arrogant, he is not an easy person to be persuaded. He held Mu Qingyan's hand into his palm, "What's more, he has made great contributions to the country of Eastern Chu in the southern and northern wars, and he is not greedy for power......"

Mu Qingyan snorted lightly.

"What status did Anzhi Chuli promise him? Power is a thing, only by standing on a high place can there be more greed. Her voice was disdainful, "If Xiang Tianqi is smart, he should know that even if Brother Jue gives up the Eastern Chu River, Chu Li is not a talent for governing the world." ”

Qin Yan nodded, still asking her in a soft voice, "What should you do?" ”

"The little loach also wants to follow the example of Jiang Long?" Mu Qingyan met his eyes, "I just want to see what kind of character he is, if he really dares to meet the inside and outside, then ......" She waved out a hand knife, and a cold smile on the corner of her lips was extremely cold.

Qin Yan grabbed his little hand back into his palm and smiled lightly.

Mu Qingyan slapped him lightly, and the two of them stopped talking, snuggling up to each other, and the room was quiet and beautiful.

Someone from outside the hospital came again.

Mu Qingyan sat up straight, "Come in!" ”

Someone sent a letter again, "Master, Jinguancheng is in a hurry!" ”

Mu Qingyan immediately took it, "It's finally here!" She muttered to herself, waiting until her patience ran out, and finally waited before she lost her temper.

The man looked extremely tired, and his body shook slightly.

"He Xin come in!" Mu Qingyan called to He Xin outside the window, "Send him to the shopkeeper Luo to take a look." ”

The man thanked him, and He Xin helped him staggered out of the small courtyard.

Mu Qingyan couldn't wait to open the letterhead and successfully captured the information she wanted in a bunch of greetings. The eyebrows frowned slightly, but the playful smile on the lips made people unable to guess what they were thinking.

Qin Yan sat and drank tea, not asking or being impatient.

"Qin Yan, is there anything good in that small border city that I don't have in Dongchu?" Mu Qingyan threw the letter on the table, looked at the pool of peonies in the courtyard, and thought thoughtfully.

Qin Yan drank two sips of tea before replying to her, "Yes!" Looking at her line of sight, the bowl of flowers was so bright that it didn't look like something she would love.

"Dongchu lacks a pasture!" Qin Yan's uninhibited voice was full of ambition.

Mu Qingyan looked back at him with a smile, "I only heard that the land is barren and desolate, with no city and no country, but I didn't know that there were such benefits." His eyes were shining, "Qin Yan, you said that if I asked Brother Jue for it, would he agree?" ”

"Yes!" Qin Yan lowered his frost-stained gaze and replied to her indifferently.

His sudden loneliness made Mu Qingyan's heart ache slightly, this was not Qin Yan she was familiar with; The man who was so cold and arrogant that at least he didn't lose himself to anything in the past.

Qin Yan knew that Chu Jue would rather give up the throne in exchange for her for the rest of her life, but her heart had already been promised to Shen Luochen. Now it is different from the past, although Chu Jue is on the throne, he has lost the opportunity to laugh with her. But he is different, this time he said that he would not let go again, even if she had Luo Chen in her heart, she could only be his!

He emotionally stretched out his arms and swept her into his arms, sitting on his side on his lap.

Mu Qingyan's eyes are as big as a pool, pure and bottomless, and there seems to be water waves surging at the moment when he is held in his arms.

"Weiyang ......" His lips burned a string of hot marks on her snow-white collarbone, but he still didn't feel enough, until he heard the chaotic heartbeat in her chest, he gritted his teeth and left, and took her into his arms and hugged her, with both affection and imperative persistence in his eyes.

Mu Qingyan struggled in his arms, and after beating him a few times, he couldn't break free, but his breath was so chaotic that he lost his order.

"Don't move...... Qin Yan's eyes were red, and his soft voice seemed to be begging and coaxing.

He was deeply puzzled why he couldn't control himself like this every time he saw her, and that self-control that had always been proud was useless in the face of her.

"Weiyang, I ......"

Mu Qingyan covered his lips, she seemed to have heard Hua Xun talk about it before, but if she has a skin-to-skin relationship with someone who has a desperate Gu, then she will only be emotional for this person in her life, and if she is good with someone else, she will definitely die of blood. Although there are no Gu worms in his body, but the Gu poison is there, if she dies, he will definitely not survive......

Qin Yan looked at the unprecedented uncertainty in her eyes, and called lightly at a loss: "Weiyang? Weiyang? It took her two calls before she came back to her senses.

Breaking free from his confinement, his face was already as red as blood. She turned away, shaking her hands and arranging her messy clothes.

Qin Yan looked from behind, the shoulders and necks that seemed to be shaved into pieces, and the slender waist that was less than a bunch was trembling slightly. He could sense her panic, but he still couldn't help himself from hugging her from behind, "I'm coming!" He whispered very softly in her ear, his lips already pressed against the blood-colored butterfly that was spreading its wings under the collar.

Mu Qingyan didn't dare to look back, his lips touched the back of her neck with a scorching temperature. Her heart became even more flustered, knowing that he had already discovered the butterfly pattern on the back of her neck. With his supreme intelligence, will he think of the events of Nanzhao that day? She wasn't sure......

Neither of them said anything.

Qin Yan tore off the ribbon around her waist, and as he said, he helped her tidy up her middle coat first, then closed the outer robe, buttoned the hidden button, and tied the silk ribbon back into a knot on her waist. From beginning to end, there is no slackness, meticulous and attentive.

Mu Qingyan was still blushing, walked to the desk in a few steps, and laughed at what he wrote on the paper. Then he put it in an envelope, sealed it with fire paint, untied the jade pendant on his waist, twisted it half a circle, and covered it with uncondensed paint.

"He Xin!"

He Xin hurried in from outside the hospital, "My subordinates are here!" ”

"Send this letter to Phoenix, the sooner the better!" Mu Qingyan solemnly ordered, "I've arranged for you to come to me again, I have important things for you to do." “

He Xin agreed, put the letterhead on his sleeve and hurriedly ran out.

Mu Qingyan still returned to the desk, and Qin Yanli was working hard to write after the case. On the left hand side are two pages of paper that have been written, and the pen on his wrist is still moving.

"You still have to work your people to do this, Chu Li disperses the forces in the capital, and the purpose is not only to provoke the people to riot." As he spoke, he threw the pen into the pen wash, dried the ink on the paper, and said, "He wants to use the plague as an excuse to distract himself and march secretly." ”

Mu Qingyan frowned and looked at Qin Yan's handwriting and nodded, "At first, I thought he would garrison Jinguan City. It turned out that I was wrong, and now it seems that it should be in Liangzhou, Qin Yan, what should I do now? She looked at him.

"Hold your ground!" Qin Yan folded the letterhead she had read into the envelope, "According to their previous plan, Liangzhou City will be in chaos in two days, and he can take advantage of the chaos to pass Liangzhou City." ”

Mu Qingyan pondered, "Chu Li wants to lead troops into Beijing, if he comes from Natsume, he will inevitably pass through Liangzhou City and Longquan Town, then Jincheng is just a dangzi?" She asked herself, then shook her head again, suddenly remembering something.

"Qin Yan, Chu Yue may be the heir of King Ning."

"What did you say?" Qin Yan turned his head violently, immediately walked to her side, and asked her again uncertainly.

Mu Qingyan looked at him fixedly, "I'm not sure, I suspected this matter when I was in Nanzhao, and I ordered someone to investigate, but because of the age, I really couldn't investigate, and in the end, it was over." ”

Mu Qingyan was only two years old when Gongzi asked the trace when he died, and he had no intention of visiting Longxin Pavilion because of the ruthless blood Gu in his wife's body, and in those years, Anxin Lou was rampant, and he didn't want to be involved in the disputes in the rivers and lakes, so he hid and concentrated on solving the Gu for Hua Xingzhu. Almost all of the people used by Youlong Xin Pavilion now are orphans who were snare by the prince in those years, and they were personally taught and cultivated, so as to leave them for future generations to use in the power of Youlong Pavilion.

"Chu Li and Chu Yue joining forces is tantamount to seeking skin with a tiger!" Qin Yan sneered.

Mu Qingyan sighed, "Brother Jue's heart is too soft, he doesn't want to kill his brothers in the same clan, but once those people have enough strength, they will definitely kill him, and they will not show any mercy." ”

"Five years ago, Chu Li absconded from Beijing with his people, and Chu Jue didn't let people look for him." Qin Yan locked his eyebrows and told Mu Qingyan some things he knew, "But Chu Yue was exiled by him." ”

Mu Qingyan bit her lip and masochistically, "It's all my fault!" If I had been watched, I wouldn't be where I am today! She looked annoyed, "Chu Li's lonely palm alone is difficult to speak, although there is An Yuqing, it will not help." Who knew that Chu Yue was added again, although it is inconclusive whether he is the heir of Prince Ning, but the fact that his mother and concubine murdered Brother Jue is true. ”

Qin Yan didn't ask about Dongfang Fengjue's affairs in detail, just relying on his green dragon seal and half a tiger talisman as evidence, he believed what everyone said. He was not an easy person to trust, but he had already heard of the secrets of the royal family. Besides, he was raised by Qilin Villa, who didn't know that Dongfang Yin, Chu Jing and Mu Zheng, as well as the ancestor emperor who had been called the four sons of Eastern Chu, even Emperor Mingze saw the three of them, and he must call out his uncle.

He didn't pursue what happened back then, because he also thought that Dongfang Fengjue had the ability to rule the rivers and mountains of Dongchu and give millions of living beings in Dongchu a place to live. Compared with Chu Li and Chu Yue's generation, how can he change someone to be above the ten thousand people. That being the case, there was no one more suitable than Dongfang Fengjue, although he himself was reluctant.

"You can't be blamed for that!" Qin Yan lightly hugged her shoulder, "My generation is incompetent, and this time it is just a matter of completely cutting off their ambitions." ”

Mu Qingyan nodded, "If Brother Jue can't see through it and insists on keeping the two of them, then it's no wonder I ......" She squinted, pursed the corners of her lips, and said coldly.

"He is not a dull man, and if he is given the opportunity, how can he be allowed to do it again and again?" Qin Yan knew more or less about his intentions, he was always a sibling, it was easy to recover him, but most of the people who could be implicated were innocent. If there is no war, there will be no soldiers, and where there are soldiers, there must be strain. Eastern Chu has been in war for many years, there is a shortage of money and food in the country, and there are many people who are hungry, so how can he bear it.

"If you don't know how to live, you don't have to live!" Mu Qingyan hated his carelessness back then.

Qin Yan didn't answer her words, but there was a little coldness in his eyes.
