Chapter Seventy-Two: Capturing the Cloud Banner Alive

Juanxiang held a knife and cut the man's pulse, the knife was withdrawn from his body, Juanxiang's center of gravity was unstable, and the whole person fell backwards, the scabbard fell to the ground, and the person who fell was quickly swallowed in the water.

All you can see is the splash of water.

……

Xiao Huaijin on the other side didn't know what kind of danger Wanxiang encountered, just because Wanxiang's departure became lonely and inevitable. Just now, I was full of joy waiting for Liang to pick a day, and now people are no longer in the house.

Liang Cuo brought the medicine jar: "Lord Wang, take the medicine." ”

"No, you don't." Xiao Huaijin picked up the jade wolf on the corner of the table and wrote calmly, thinking about her in his heart.

"Lord, the days ...... Still picky? ”

"Pick."

"But now we don't know where Aka will go."

She was suspicious, even if she was her brother, she wouldn't easily believe him if she hadn't seen him for more than ten years. Except for Beixun, she has nowhere to go. ”

"The subordinate came back to her."

"Don't, tell her to calm down. You have something else to do. ”

……

Since Xiao Huaijin came back, Ling Zhao has not seen any trace of Xiao Huaijin. Early in the morning, I heard that Wanxiang left overnight last night, so I hurriedly went out to see King Yi.

After lingering, Ling Zhao asked King Yi: "Have you caught it?" ”

"I was caught, but I accidentally killed me."

Ling Zhao hurriedly turned over and sat up: "Dead?!" Didn't you say leave me alive?! ”

"Be quiet!" King Yi also turned over and sat up: "It's just to keep you alive, do you know how many people have died of me?" ”

"What about the corpses?"

"Fell into the river and disappeared."

"Gone? Xiao Huaihui, you must be too hasty, I don't know if she is completely dead......"

"The knife was inserted so deeply, and it fell into the fast-flowing Fengjiang River, even if it didn't die, it would be drained."

"What if the blood doesn't drain?" Ling Zhao asked anxiously, and King Yi patted her hand to signal her to reassure: "Even if the blood doesn't drain, it won't survive." ”

"Don't you understand the truth that you want to see people alive and see corpses when you die?" Looking at King Yi's impatient face, Ling Zhao suddenly thought of something: "It can't be that you fell in love with that cheap maid and deliberately let her live, right?" ”

"Nothing. Knowing that you will be angry, I have dealt with the people who went to catch the incense last night. ”

"What's the use of them dying? It must be that the incense is dead. I can't settle down, I don't care how you and your brother plan to deal with Xiao Huaijin, Wanxiang must see the corpse. ”

"Okay, okay, I'll send someone to find it when I get back."

Ling Zhao then lay back on the bed peacefully, stared at the curtain and was distracted, and asked for a long time: "How did you make Wanxiang run out of the Pingnan Palace?" ”

"Thanks to the Cloud Tribulation, I've been planning this for two years."

"You recognized Ayaka two years ago?"

"That's not true, it's just that two years ago, Yun Zheng and Wanxiang fought each other, and found out that one of their descendants was a knife, thinking that it might be his sister. How can you not seize such a great opportunity?

Not to mention that they are really brother and sister, even if Juanxiang has nothing to do with Cloud Tribulation, I have to find a way to get them to have a relationship. took advantage of their relationship to turn Wanxiang and Xiao Huaijin against each other, so that it would be done once and for all. ”

King Yi held Ling Zhao in his arms, "Why doesn't Xiao Huaijin have any intention of driving you away?" ”

"What do you mean? I wish Xiao Huaijin would kick me out of the house, right? ”

King Yi hurriedly reassured Ling Zhao: "Where do I mean that?" I'm just afraid that Xiao Huaijin will be suspicious, and I didn't act because I wanted to keep you doing something bad. ”

"Bad things?" Ling Zhao chuckled: "Is there anything worse than what you are doing now?" ”

Saying that, King Yi stepped forward and sniffed at Ling Zhao's side for a while: "Sister-in-law, are you still nostalgic for Xiao Huaijin now?" ”

Ling Zhao turned his head uncomfortably and looked away: "At the beginning, you said that you couldn't take me back to King Yi's mansion, what?" Afraid that I will not do my best in Pingnan Palace? ”

"How so?"

"Compared with you, a villain, Xiao Huaijin is more worthy of trust than you. But his mind is no longer on me. Saying that, Ling Zhao stroked King Yi's back: "Since we have been tied together, don't think about that." ”

Except for King Yi and Ling Zhao, everyone else thought that Wanxiang had left the imperial city and gone to Beixun. Xiao Huaijin waited for Aunt Hong to send a message to her, waiting for the news that she arrived in Beixun safely.

But three days passed, and there was no news.

Looking up at the dying trees outside, Xiao Huaijin couldn't help but lose his mind, and the chess pieces in his hand fell on the chessboard and smashed the two white pieces next to him.

Liang Cuo heard a voice and walked in: "Lord Wang." ”

Xiao Huaijin indifferently picked up the chess pieces that fell on the couch: "It's okay." ”

"Beixun...... hasn't written yet, and Juanxiang has been gone for three days. ”

"Hmm."

"Nothing will happen, will it?"

"Send someone to find it."

Where else can this man go?

Xiao Huaijin speculated about where Wanxiang could go, Xiao Huaijin thought of Liyun Banner, Qingyuefang, and even the General's Mansion.

He thought of many possibilities, but he didn't expect Liang Cuo to come back with the sheath of the incense. Liang Cuo knelt on the ground: "Lord Wang, this seems to be the scabbard of the incense." ”

Xiao Huaijin took the scabbard and took it in the palm of his hand to look at it carefully, every pattern was carefully seen, this was definitely the dagger that Wanxiang never left an inch.

"Where did you pick it up?"

"On the low cliff by the Fengjiang River, there are two new places in the forest in front of them, and when they are dug up, they show that they are two corpses that have been poisoned and died. The body has been brought back. ”

Xiao Huaijin closed his eyes and clenched the scabbard.

"Lord Wang, the blade is no more."

"No, not really. Keep looking, and look wherever you can. Every place in the lower reaches of the Fengjiang River cannot be spared. ”

He didn't believe that Wanxiang's life was so big, and he would be plotted so easily.

Everything is going according to King Yi's thoughts at the moment, and Wanxiang is no longer by Xiao Huaijin's side, which means that Xiao Huaijin has lost an eye and a deaf ear.

and then arrange someone to frame him to raise the dead, and ask Yun Zheng to put the evidence into the Pingnan Palace, even if Ling Zhao is reluctant to expose Xiao Huaijin at that time, he has a way to bring the matter to the front of the saint.

King Yi calculated everything just right, just waiting for Xiao Huaijin to anger the saint and force him to rebel, so that he would die without a place to be buried.

But King Yi only missed his subordinates Yun Zheng, and only wanted to kill Xiao Huaijin while his sister was away. The so-called long nights and many dreams, this truth is very clear from Yunqi.

At the same time, Xiao Huaijin also burned incense and meditated in the East Courtyard, trying to calm himself down. The tea bowl in his hand rippled slightly, Xiao Huaijin reached out and picked up the tea bowl and swallowed it gently, then closed his eyes.

After a while, someone came in, holding a knife exactly the same as Wanxiang in his hand, and the bright blade of the knife stabbed Xiao Huaijin fiercely.

Xiao Huaijin reached out and grabbed Liyun Qi's wrist, Liyun Qi was shocked because Xiao Huaijin was not poisoned, Xiao Huaijin had already stretched out his hands to press him to the ground and broke his arm.

The speed was so fast that before he could react to the cloud flag, Liang Cuo heard the voice and brought someone in to take the cloud flag in Xiao Huaijin's hand.

In the dark, Xiao Huaijin got up unhurriedly and walked to the lamp: "Don't think about killing yourself, Wanxiang only has a relative like you." Off the cloud flag. ”

Saying that, Xiao Huaijin lit the lamp and made the room as bright as day. Looking down at the scars on Liyunqi's eyes, he didn't see that he really returned to the front of the case with Wanxiang: "Xiao Huaihui sent you?" ”

Liyun Qi, who was called by name, suddenly understood that Xiao Huaijin only lit a candlestick and did nothing, just waiting for himself here, and he knew everything: "......"

"Are you curious, why I wasn't poisoned?"

"You obviously drank tea, it is highly poisonous, it is impossible to do nothing. Unless ......"

"Unless I didn't drink at all, I didn't even touch the cup. Your methods are very clever, but the light gong is much worse than the incense, and it is difficult to step on the tiles and not hear it. ”

"There's nothing to say, life and death are up to you. Don't want to use me to threaten Wan'er to marry you, even if you die, I won't let Wan'er marry you! ”

Liyun Qi gritted his teeth and looked at Xiao Huaijin, Xiao Huaijin didn't care about his appearance, and sat there and said indifferently: "You still think too highly of yourself, Wanxiang does things according to her own will, she doesn't care what brother is not a brother." ”

"And what do you want?"

Xiao Huaijin's big hand slapped heavily on the case, leaning forward and staring at Yunqi: "Where did you hide the incense?" ”

"I don't know."

"Wanxiang is naturally smart, how can there be such a stupid brother as you? Xiao Huaihui can easily coax you with a fake secret edict, which is really unexpected stupidity! ”
