Chapter Forty-Nine: Poisoning of the Fire Lin

"One of you two brothers is close to me, and the other is my beloved, and I have always been in a dilemma, I don't know whether I should tell you about the Qilin Order.

In fact, now that the first emperor has passed away, some grievances should also disappear with the smoke, and those love and hate in the past have nothing to do with you. What's more, the secret decree about the Qilin Order has also been burned down with the palace.

I just heard that you have thought about giving up the Qilin Order more than once, and my sister is embarrassed by Qing everywhere, I can't help but be a little worried, so before leaving, it is better to tell you honestly, so as not to think about it enough in the future and suffer a big loss. ”

I hugged the master tightly and refused to let go, knowing that in the tug-of-war between me and the Queen Mother, the master's emotional weight had obviously been biased towards me, so I brought up the old story again, so it vaguely reminded us that we should be careful of the suspicion of the Queen Mother and the emperor, and know how to protect our lives, and what happened to Lan Yinger at the beginning was a lesson from the past.

Xia Chu quietly walked into the courtyard and whispered goodbye to the cold: "The emperor and Gonggong Guo are coming here." ”

Liang Ci frowned slightly: "He didn't eat and drink in the front hall, why did he think of chasing here?" ”

The master stood up unhurriedly: "That's just right, I don't have to go to the palace to say goodbye to the emperor and Gonggong Guo." ”

As soon as the words fell, the emperor's bright purple 'colored' tall figure had already turned over the shadow wall, entered the courtyard, and said extremely unhappily: "The host's family doesn't entertain guests, but he ran here to hide himself, which seems a bit unreasonable." ”

"I was in a hurry to leave, so Qing and Qi Wang Ye left the guests and made a special trip to see me off." The master explained first.

"Aunt is leaving? Why are you in such a hurry? Chang'an still wants to take you into the palace to enjoy the blessings. The emperor was a little stunned when he heard this.

The master smiled and shook his head: "The emperor's rule of peace, the four seas are singing, and my aunt is blessed wherever she is." ”

The emperor frowned, and it seemed that his face was not shocked, but I could feel the turbulent "waves" contained in it: "Is it because the queen mother doesn't want you to stay in the capital?" ”

The voice was cold, containing strong dissatisfaction.

The master hurriedly shook his head and denied: "It's because I'm not used to being here, I just want to go back to Yunwu Mountain." ”

"Auntie, you lied to me again! You once told me that wherever there are relatives and lovers, there is a home everywhere. Chang'an is here, Qingye is here, what are you not comfortable with? Do you have to go back to the desolate Cloud Mountain, alone? ”

When the emperor faced the master, he was like two people with Ping Su, and he obviously became emotional, and every word, every word with stubbornness and willfulness, all 'revealed' his thirst for family affection.

His remarks made the master speechless, and he didn't know how to explain it.

"Or, auntie, are you blaming me? You still won't forgive me and the queen mother? ”

The emperor's mood was a little 'agitated'.

The master shook his head again and again: "Chang'an, those things have passed, and time is the best healing holy 'medicine'." The person I hate is gone, and you and your mother are my closest relatives in this world, what else can I be angry about? I was in a hurry to leave, just to find an antidote to the poison of the tarsal bones as soon as possible, and to save those who were harmed by the poison. ”

"I've heard from King Qi about the poisoning of Huolin, I have my own arrangements, and I don't bother my aunt." The emperor said indifferently.

Fire Lin poisoning? I couldn't help but wonder, how come I had never heard of this? I suddenly remembered that on the way back to Chang'an in Jiangnan, Mu Lin and Shui Lin and others had heavy expressions on their faces, and when I asked them, the two of them looked left and right about him, and a sense of foreboding suddenly rose in their hearts, and they turned to Liang Ci and asked, "What happened, what poison did Huolin get?" Why are you hiding it from me? ”

Liang Ci looked down at me, his eyes blazing: "It's not a big deal, it's just that we don't want you to worry, so we didn't tell you." It was Huolin and a few people, in order to hide their identities, so they voluntarily got poisoned by the tarsal bones. ”

I staggered back two steps when I heard this, and my mind went blank for a moment: "Isn't it, is it the person who escaped from the water prison in the first place?" ”

Liang Ci nodded: "That person was scheming, he actually found the leader of the Bodhi Sect, and in order to make meritorious contributions, he accused Huolin's identity. Fortunately, the news came out in advance, and Huolin and the others were prepared. Several people broke the kettle, and they were willing to be poisoned by the tarsal bones, and then they were resourceful and escaped this catastrophe. ”

In an instant, my heart was like turning over the river and the sea, and my intestines were green with regret. If it weren't for the fact that I was clever at the beginning, and was taken captive into the Bodhi Sect Capital Branch Altar by the fake Tianyuan Old Man, Huolin would not have 'revealed' his identity because he saved me. If I had been more alert that day, that person would not have fled from under his nose and brought danger to Huolin and the others. Taking a step back, if I hadn't been lucky and had some bad ideas for Huo Lin and the others to sneak into the Bodhi Sect at the beginning, but had resolutely opposed it, Huo Lin and the others would not have risked their lives and put them in the situation they are in today.

Liang Ci stretched out his hand to support me, and comforted me with kind words: "When Huolin and the others infiltrated the Bodhi Sect, they had already made such a determination, you don't have to blame yourself." ”

"How can I not blame myself? At the beginning, Huolin placed so much hope on me, firmly believing that I could develop a way to fight the poison of tarsal bones, so I did not hesitate, but I failed them, only cared about the love of my own children, comfortable and enjoyable, and forgot the responsibility on my shoulders. ”

"Su Qing, this matter is my responsibility, we shouldn't put all the heavy responsibility of cracking the poison of the tarsal bone on your head because of your excellent medical skills, it's not your fault, it has nothing to do with you." Liang Ci frowned into a pimple, and patiently persuaded me.

"Yes, Qing, what Lord Qi said is very right, the tarsal bones are difficult to solve, and they are by no means transparent overnight. Although you can bear such pressure and turn it into motivation, you must not blame yourself and be sad. The master also stepped forward to persuade.

I smiled bitterly, and the guilt in my heart was like a rough and blunt knife, and this feeling could not be dissolved in a few words.

I said firmly to the master, "Master, I want to go with you." I also want to go to Miao Jiang and use the Candle Dragon Order to open the Emperor of Ten Thousand Gu. ”

"Open the Emperor of Ten Thousand Gu? Easier said than done. Qing, this is not something that you can accomplish as a weak 'girl'. The emperor immediately dissuaded.

I shook my head stubbornly: "I'm not acting in a moment's righteousness, nor am I doing it on a whim." Only by obtaining the Emperor of Ten Thousand Gus can easily crack the poison of the tarsal bones, and besides, I heard that the Emperor of Ten Thousand Gu can command the hundred Gu of Miao Jiang, and the Bodhi Sect has a big reliance, which is not enough to worry about, and it is just around the corner to crush their 'yin' schemes. Therefore, Miao Jiang and his party, I am determined to win. ”

"It's because this Emperor of Ten Thousand Gu can command a hundred Gu, do you think the Miao people will let you take it out smoothly and pose a threat to Miao Jiang? But as far as the seedlings and insects are concerned, can you get through it? Liang Ci couldn't help but persuade, and secretly reached out and pulled my sleeve: "Qing, the emperor has his own plans for this matter." I am Chang'an Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger, and there will inevitably be people who are 'fine' in Gu poison to go to Miaojiang, and you and your aunt can just rest assured about this matter. ”

How can I not understand the good intentions of cool words? But let me continue to stand idly by after learning that Huolin and others were poisoned, I can't do it. I shook off my cold hand, walked to the emperor, knelt down on my knees, and begged word by word: "The Candle Dragon Order was originally the treasure of Miao Jiang, even if the Miao people fought openly and secretly, it was understandable to obstruct it in every way." I implore the emperor to give Master Miao a letter of cultivation, promising that I will temporarily borrow the Emperor of Ten Thousand Gu, and after the poison of the tarsal bones is lifted and the Bodhi Sect is annihilated, it will be returned immediately along with the Candle Dragon Order. The young man is soft-spoken, and the emperor's words are definitely stronger than the green thousand words. ”

The emperor was silent for a while, and his face was dark and uncertain.

"Your Majesty, I implore you to think about the people who have suffered from the Bodhi Sect, and let Qing go to Miaojiang to borrow back the Gu Emperor." I slammed my head on the ground and pleaded bitterly.

"This is to talk about the poor mountains and bad waters of Miaojiang, and there are many dangers, but if the Bodhi Sect hears the rumors, it will not be peaceful along the way. In this matter, I will naturally send others to go as Lord Qi said, and you and your aunt will just stay in Beijing and wait for news. "The Emperor rejected my request very dryly.

"I ......"

"I have made up my mind, no need to say more!" The emperor said resolutely, leaving no room for turning, and stretched out his hand to me: "I know that the Candle Dragon Order is now on your body, and it will be 'handed over' to me." ”

I took two steps back on my knees and shook my head repeatedly.

"'Hand' it over, Su Qing, do you want to resist and disobey the order?" The emperor looked at me condescendingly, and an invisible coercion pressed over me.

I reluctantly took out the token from my waist and held it high above my head, my eyes were already red, and I felt very aggrieved.

The emperor withdrew the candle dragon order, looked at me word by word, and said extremely sternly: "I, you are absolutely not allowed to do anything without permission. ”

After speaking, he turned back coldly and said to Guo Gonggong: "Drive back to the palace." ”

After that, he brushed his sleeves away, and I was not allowed to say a word more.

I was still kneeling on the ground in a daze, and Liang Ci stepped forward to support me: "Qing, this time I went to Miao Jiangzhi, you just listen to me, don't 'interfere'." ”

I angrily shook off his outstretched hand and lost my temper: "Even you don't want to help me, and you still help him talk." ”

"Ao!" The master said angrily: "Lord Qi, this is also for your good." ”

"If I can't remove the Gu poison on Huolin and the others, I will be uneasy for the rest of my life. Besides, the insect once told me that the Gu Emperor is the most domineering, but he is also the most squeamish, if ordinary people don't understand, they can't bring the Gu Emperor back to Chang'an safely from Miao Jiang. I don't dare to take the risk of pinning my hopes on others, so I must go to Miaojiang in person, otherwise how can I be at peace in my heart? ”

I have always been stubborn, and what I recognize is always not to hit the south wall and never look back. The master knew my spleen and nature best, so he stopped persuading me.
