Chapter Ninety-Five: When you come, you are unhappy, and when you go, you are sad

In the early spring of 731 A.D., in the Xiyue Pavilion located in the depths of Qiling Mountain, there were lights and laughter.

Today is the birthday of Kong Fanjin, the master of Xiyue Pavilion, and on such an important day, the whole pavilion naturally has to handle it seriously.

However, Kong Fanjin was born in a poor person who likes to be thrifty. Although he is already famous and prominent at this moment, he still does not want to see his subordinates being overly extravagant for this.

When he was young, Kong Fanjin was out of everyone's sight, and then walked slowly to the top of a mountain alone, and not far in front of him was a pavilion.

This situation can't help but remind Kong Fanjin of his wife who has been dead for many years.

Back then, Kong Fanjin and his wife Wang met and fell in love in such a pavilion that was almost the same.

Back then, every time it is today, Kong Fanjin will come here with his wife. In addition to celebrating their birthdays, they also commemorate this place that has a special meaning for the two of them.

At that time, the husband and wife were chanting poems in the pavilion, playing the flute and stroking the piano, how comfortable and happy they were.

But now, the former pavilion has been deserted, and the virtuous wife has left him. Leaving Kong Fanjin alone in the world, if there was no Kong Ruixin, he would have gone with his wife.

In order to commemorate his wife, Kong Fanjin, who has always been infatuated, built a pavilion on the top of this mountain with his memory that was similar to the pavilion of the year, and will stay here for a while every year today.

The right is that the wife is still there, the gazebo is not empty, and you can find the sweetness of the past in your spare time.

At this time, Kong Fanjin seemed to see that he was sitting on the stone steps next to him with his wife, talking and laughing, warm and comfortable.

Seeing this, Kong Fanjin walked forward quickly, wanting to touch his wife's face.

At this moment, Kong Fanjin, who had just woken up from a dream, reluctantly found that all this was just yesterday's scene that he had imagined.

Just as one of Kong Fanjin's feet had just stepped into the pavilion, his subordinates brought some refreshments for consumption.

I think the people here are afraid that he will make a mistake, so they send people to serve and protect him every step of the way.

Seeing this, Kong Fanjin was very depressed in his heart.

Since he took charge of the Xiyue Pavilion, with the continuous increase in power and status, this personal freedom has gradually ceased to exist.

However, although Kong Fanjin was a little uncomfortable, he was not angry with these subordinates who were like brothers, after all, they were also acting involuntarily under orders.

When he was young, Kong Fanjin motioned to everyone around him to retreat farther away, he wanted to be here alone.

When everyone saw this, they did not dare to disobey, so they had to obey the order.

Then, Kong Fanjin sat on the stone bench and drank the tea in front of him unhurriedly.

As soon as he poured the tea from the pot into the cup, and before he could drink it, he smelled a refreshing fragrance emanating from the water.

Seeing this, Kong Fanjin immediately smiled and said, "It's you little ghost again." ”

Yes, this tea is the soothing tea specially brewed by Kong Ruixin for him. In the whole world, only the tea brewed by Kong Ruixin will have this taste.

Just as Kong Fanjin was smiling and wanted to raise his hand to drink tea, but he didn't know why, his expression suddenly became very serious, so much so that he began to frown and sigh without even taking a sip of the tea made by his daughter.

I saw Kong Fanjin slowly put down the teacup, and then came to the edge of the pavilion, holding the pillar next to him with one hand, and repeatedly stroking his already gray sideburns with the other hand.

At this moment, his expression was solemn and sad, and he did not have the joy that he should have on his birthday.

In an instant, this iron-clad man secretly shed meaningful tears.

When clean tears suddenly rolled down from his weather-beaten face, Kong Fanjin immediately wiped it dry with his sleeve, so as not to be seen by everyone that he, as the master of the first pavilion, would have such a moment of crying bitterly.

When he was young, Kong Fanjin, who was preoccupied, wiped away his tears and looked down the mountain with his eyes. But seeing the dust in the distance, the occasional shouting came to my ears.

Seeing this situation, Kong Fanjin's heart became more and more uneasy.

At this moment, the people who patrolled the mountain came to report that a group of unknown people had come to ask for their hall master, what was going on?

It turned out that Li Yuqi's promise to Guo Nianyao that he would release Liu Aodong and Zhang Tianjiao was completely an illusion deliberately created by him in order to achieve his goal.

In other words, Li Yuqi didn't really let the two go. Instead, after Guo Nianyao entered the mansion safely, he secretly sent someone to quickly catch up with them and capture them again.

Because Liu Aodong and Zhang Tianjiao were both injured at that time, and it snowed heavily that day, the road was extremely difficult to walk, so they were already unable to move an inch when they were isolated and helpless.

On the other hand, the men and horses sent by Li Yuqi were chasing after them according to the traces of blood and footprints left by the two along the way.

At this moment, it is getting late. In desperation, Liu Aodong could only carry Zhang Tianjiao to a relatively hidden cave and hide, hoping to get rid of the people of Tianji Hall.

However, as the saying goes, one hundred secrets are sparse. In the end, the two were unable to escape, and they were both controlled by them.

At this critical juncture, Murong Yuping appeared in time and immediately became entangled with the people of Tianji Hall.

However, Murong Yuping alone could not protect the two of them. Fortunately, Kong Fanjin's people heard the news and successfully took them out of danger, and then escorted the two all the way to Xiyue Pavilion.

Seeing that the two of them had escaped, Murong Yuping immediately killed the people of Tianji Hall, and then returned to Paradise Valley.

And when Murong Yuping returned to Paradise Valley, she unexpectedly found that Bai Muyun and Zhang Tianyi, who had been controlled by her before, actually took the opportunity to escape.

Seeing this, Murong Yuping immediately stepped forward to check the situation.

I saw that the ropes used to bind the two had been cut and fell to the ground one after another, and Bai Muyun and Zhang Tianyi had long been nowhere to be found.

Seeing this situation, Murong Yuping's heart couldn't help but have some doubts.

Who rescued them? Where is Mei Jiaxing? Not to mention that my task has not been completed, but I am entangled with the people of Xiyue Pavilion, how can I explain it to Jiang Xinghe?

At this moment, Murong Yuping felt unprecedented panic and uneasiness for the first time. However, like a lonely ghost, she had no other support but Jiang Xinghe, so she could only go back. Fortunately, Jiang Xinghe did not blame her after knowing that he had lost the secret letter, and Murong Yuping finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this.

And Zhang Tianjiao has gradually recovered under the careful care of the people in Xiyue Pavilion, but in the process, some unexpected things have happened.

After Zhang Tianyi learned that Zhang Tianjiao was rescued by Kong Fanjin of Xiyue Pavilion, he couldn't sleep all night, so he simply came to a wicked person to sue first.

He actually lied to the other hall masters in Tianji Hall that it was Kong Fanjin who kidnapped Zhang Tianjiao and used it to blackmail Tianji Hall.

For today's plan, everyone in Tianji Hall should unite and immediately kill Shangxi Moon Pavilion to rescue Zhang Tianjiao.

In fact, the reason why Zhang Tianyi is so eager to find Zhang Tianjiao is because he is afraid that once Zhang Tianjiao recovers, he will expose his ugly deeds in front of everyone, rather than sincerely thinking about Zhang Tianjiao's safety.

Zhang Tianyi's wolf ambition couldn't be clearer in the heart of the hall master of the Nine Halls. He had already reminded Zhang Tianjiao to beware of Zhang Tianyi, but Zhang Tianjiao repeatedly remembered the old feelings and couldn't bear to attack him, which caused today's disaster.

Zhang Tianyi knew that the master of the Nine Halls was by no means of the same mind as him, and if this person did not get rid of him, he would definitely have endless troubles. So Zhang Tianyi took matters into his own hands, and secretly executed him in the name of the master of the Nine Halls secretly colluding with the gangsters of Xiyue Pavilion to wait for an opportunity to harm Zhang Tianjiao. Then, the master of the Nine Halls was replaced by Zhang Tianyi's henchman. In this way, Zhang Tianyi's power in Tianji Hall is a little stronger.

It is worth mentioning that although Zhang Tianyi is the deputy hall master, he has no right to take the initiative to kill and injure people in various branch halls.

But in order to achieve his goal, Zhang Tianyi actually acted beyond his authority without Zhang Tianjiao's permission on the grounds that he was in a hurry to obey his power, and his wolf ambition was already obvious.

However, at this time, the dragons of Tianji Hall were leaderless, and although everyone already knew it, they did not dare to be enemies with Zhang Tianyi, otherwise they would end up with the master of the Nine Hall.

In the past few days, Tianjitang has repeatedly sent people to disturb him, and Kong Fanjin can be said to be overwhelmed.

Today is Kong Fanjin's birthday, and it is really unbearable for these people who don't know whether they are alive or dead to come forward to cause trouble at this juncture.

However, in order to take care of the overall situation, Kong Fanjin still chose to be patient for the time being. After all, in this case, whoever makes the first move will not be reasonable, and Zhang Tianyi will not dare to openly confront Xiyue Pavilion head-on. If not, why bluff here, just hit the mountain.

Just as Kong Fanjin was about to follow the visitor to check the situation, he saw Kong Ruixin running over in a hurry.

Seeing this, Kong Fanjin thought that something had happened to Kong Ruixin, so he hurriedly stepped forward to ask. Unexpectedly, it was not Kong Ruixin who had an accident, but Zhang Tianjiao.

It turned out that Zhang Tianjiao, who was highly poisonous, had already prepared the corresponding antidote with the help of Kong Fanjin, and then his condition gradually improved.

Unexpectedly, recently, Zhang Tianjiao was surprised to find that her body was a little strange.

At first, she didn't take it to heart. But as the condition became more and more recurring, Zhang Tianjiao, who had learned from the past, began to realize the seriousness of the problem.

Just today, Zhang Tianjiao, who was about to recover, suddenly vomited blood. This scene can scare Kong Ruixin, who has been guarding her side, very much.

When Kong Ruixin saw this, she felt that something was wrong, so she immediately ran out to find Kong Fanjin.

After hearing this, Kong Fanjin didn't dare to slack off, even if he put down the matter at hand, and then quickly came to Zhang Tianjiao's residence with Kong Ruixin.

At this time, Zhang Tianjiao had already fallen into a coma, and when Kong Fanjin saw this, he immediately stepped forward to check his pulse.

After Kong Fanjin's meticulous diagnosis, he was surprised to find that Zhang Tianjiao at this time was not only poisoned, but also poisoned.

Seeing this, Kong Fanjin was very puzzled. Could it be that when Zhang Tianyi was poisoned, he deliberately changed the composition of this poison? Or did someone secretly do something in the antidote? Or is there an internal response to the hostile forces in the Xiyue Pavilion?

At this moment, Kong Ruixin on the side told him a crucial news.

In the evening of that day, Kong Ruixin was walking alone in the corridor of Xiyue Pavilion.

Suddenly, Kong Ruixin saw a figure flashing not far away, so she decided to go and investigate.

As a result, just as Kong Ruixin wanted to run over to find out, she suddenly tripped over something, so Kong Ruixin fell in a daze.

After getting up, Kong Ruixin didn't care about herself covered in mud, but ran straight in the direction where the figure appeared.

After arriving here, Kong Ruixin was surprised to find that this place was only separated by a wall from Zhang Tianjiao's residence.

And what made Kong Ruixin feel even more incredible was that she actually saw Qin Menglan here.

Seeing this, Kong Ruixin stepped forward to talk to her. Seeing Kong Ruixin suddenly here, Qin Menglan was a little overwhelmed, so much so that she even became slurred when she spoke.

"Daddy, that new sister is sneaky, stammering, and not a good person at first glance. But she was saved by Aodong's brother, if she is really a bad person, what should we do? Kong Ruixin said to Kong Fanjin a little helplessly.

It turned out that Kong Fanjin had been kind to Liu Aodong in his early years, and Liu Aodong had been secretly doing things for Kong Fanjin, and repaid his kindness in this way.

In this way, Liu Aodong can also be regarded as half of the people of Xiyue Pavilion. It's just that Liu Aodong is arrogant by nature and doesn't like to be controlled, and often does some chivalrous things in the rivers and lakes, so most people don't know the relationship between the two of them, but only regard him as a nosy ranger.

On that day, after Liu Aodong rescued Qin Menglan's family, he took them to Xiyue Pavilion and handed them over to Kong Fanjin to take care of.

After all, in Liu Aodong's opinion, Qin Menglan's family is just ordinary people, and they should not pose a threat to Xiyue Pavilion.

But now it seems that things are by no means as simple as they seem on the surface, could it be that Liu Aodong really lured the wolf into the room?
