Chapter 56: Denunciation
After the daylight, Xie Huazhao woke up with a hangover and had an unbearable headache, but fortunately, Xie Qingning ordered Yanyu to boil the sobering soup to relieve him, and after looking around, he asked in surprise, "Why am I here?" I ...... last night Just resting here? ”
"It's not, the third young master is drunk and unconscious, so the young lady has no choice but to bring you back." Yanyu's answer made Xie Huazhao stunned for a while before jumping out of bed and shouting, "Oh no, if I don't go home at night, my mother won't overturn Xie Mansion, I have to go back quickly." ”
Xie Qingning's voice came from outside the door at the right time, "Third brother, don't worry, the first year of junior high school has already gone back, he will arrange it." ”
Xie Huazhao was stunned before he reacted, sat down on the edge of the bed with a long sigh, pressed his temples hard to relieve the headache, and didn't ask until Xie Qingning slowly walked into the room, "Nothing happened last night, right?" ”
"Why does the third brother ask that?" Xie Qingning waved his hand to signal Yanyu to retreat first, and then heard Xie Huazhao hesitantly answer, "Although I was drunk last night, I smelled blood in a daze, and I also felt murderous, isn't it a dream?" ”
"The third brother is really different, he can still feel the murderous aura when he is drunk like that," Xie Qingning laughed and teased, Xie Huazhao hurriedly laughed, "I'm just more sensitive, but you have to tell me what happened." ”
Xie Qingning straightened his face and explained the besieged by the man in black last night, but did not say the identity of Yufeng, only that he was a righteous man who saw unevenness and drew a sword to help.
"And you can find clues in the man in black?" Xie Huazhao frowned tightly when he heard this, and he was angry.
"Third brother, do you recognize this?" Xie Qingning took out an arrow from his cuff and handed it over, Xie Huazhao's face changed dramatically, and he snatched the arrow and said, "This ...... This is the stuff of Xie Fu. ”
"Are you sure?" Xie Qingning had long recognized that this arrow was used by Xie Fu to report the news, but he deliberately waited for him to say the best.
"Of course, how can I not know the things of Xie Fu? You mean, the people who besieged us last night came from Xie Province? ”
"That's right," Xie Qingning remembered Xie Zhongchun's gaze at the night banquet last night, and held back the smile on his lips and said, "There were people in black hidden in the bamboo forest before, I searched for a picture from them, and I learned that they were the second uncle's people, the second uncle wanted to seize a magic weapon left by my mother, so I made a piece of jewelry according to the picture, and put it on when I went to the banquet last night, which really caused him to panic, you say, if I tell my uncle about this, what will he do?" ”
"Second uncle?" Xie Huazhao was shocked, "You...... Can you really be sure what the second uncle did? ”
"Third brother doesn't believe it?"
Seeing Xie Qingning's face sinking and his face unhappy, Xie Huazhao hurriedly said, "No, it's not that I don't believe you, I just think it's incredible, what magic weapon would make the second uncle covet it so much, and he didn't hesitate to murder his relatives?" ”
"Loved ones?" Xie Qingning sneered, "The third brother treats me as a relative, but it doesn't mean that others also treat me as a relative. ”
Her words made Xie Huazhao silent for a long time, and finally said, "Don't worry, since the second uncle has sent so many people, there are always clues to be found, I will go to the eldest uncle to explain this matter and let him give you an explanation, otherwise you can't deter the people in Xie Fuzhong, there will be endless troubles in the future, and you must cut through the mess quickly." He stood up as he spoke, straightened his clothes and hair and left in a hurry, and when his figure disappeared into the bamboo courtyard, Xie Qingning went to the guest room in the backyard.
Yu Feng had already helped Xie Tan take the bone and heal the injury, but he stood in front of the window and looked up at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Senior brother, do you have something on your mind?" Xie Qingning came in with hot tea and pastries, and asked in surprise when he saw his back.
"Nothing." Yu Feng glanced at her and walked back to the table and sat down.
Xie Qingning put the refreshments in front of him, asked about Xie Tan's injury, and made sure that he would only need to heal for a few more months before he asked with peace of mind, "Why didn't Senior Brother go with Master?" Could it be that there is something else to do? ”
Yu Feng glanced at her, his expression was indifferent, and he didn't say a word.
Thinking of his family affairs, Xie Qingning didn't dare to ask, and the two sat relatively speechless for a long time before hearing Yu Feng speak, "I'm just passing by here, and I'm going to leave tomorrow, since the master has taken you under the door, I didn't bring any gifts as a senior brother, you can keep this bottle of life-saving pill, it may have a life-saving effect in the future." ”
Seeing that he took out a black porcelain bottle from his arms and put it on the table, Xie Qingning had a deep relationship with him in his previous life, so naturally he would not be polite to him, picked up the porcelain bottle and sniffed the elixir, and after confirming that it was the five-grade elixir "Huiling Pill", which was the most important of Yu Fengzhen, his expression was slightly shocked.
She only knew that Yufeng was proficient in medical science and loved alchemy, but she never thought that he was also a Dan Master, if she didn't get the guidance of Fanmo to teach Dan Dao in this life, she didn't understand this Tao at all, if not, she couldn't recognize that the pill in the bottle was actually a five-grade Dan master, could it be that Yufeng was already a five-grade Dan master?
"...... this?" Xie Qingning's mind was agitated and he didn't know how to ask for a while, but Yu Feng took the initiative to answer, "This is the Huiling Pill, and according to the judgment of the world, it can be regarded as a fifth grade." ”
"Reckless?" Xie Qingning was puzzled, Yu Feng took a sip of tea before saying, "I'm still only a fourth-grade Dan Master, and there is still some distance from the fifth-grade pill, but it doesn't mean that I can't refine the fifth-grade pill, but this probability is very small, it can be said to be one of the thousands, and the pill is also divided into upper, middle and lower and the best, my bottle of medicine can only be regarded as a medium grade, not a success." ”
Only then did Xie Qingning understand, thinking of the elixir he had refined last time.
"I still have something to do, so I'll go back to my room to rest first, you don't have to bother if you have nothing to do today, I will leave Beijing tomorrow, and if you have time in the future, you will be in the valley, and we will see you again." Yu Feng put down the teacup as he spoke, got up and left, and didn't look back.
Xie Qingning had no choice but to silently lean over and send him off, waiting for Yufeng's back to be out of sight before sitting down again, drinking tea while waiting for Xie Tan to wake up, by the way, he sorted out his thoughts and reconsidered the matter of alchemy.
When she got up early today, she was ordered to tell her that the Xie clan would reopen the ancestral hall on the third day after tomorrow, and she would be reclassified into the Xie family tree and become the rightful seventh lady, and her mother Xie Lanying could also return to the family to accept the incense offering again, she couldn't say whether she was happy or sad, but she felt that the process was troublesome, and I was afraid that she would have to work for a day, and her heart was very boring.
But sitting quietly at this moment, I think of another question.
In order to save Xie Tan's life that day, she had to ask Xie Huazhao to report that Xie Zhongshu had died, and now that Xie Tan woke up, how should he return to Xie Mansion? And how to explain the funeral on the day?
