Half a month later, Xiao Jiu finally received a letter from Gongsun Shanran, claiming that the leader of the Taisi Shadow Sect personally went to Xiangshan Manor to regret his marriage, and his marriage contract with Du Fang was finally dissolved.

In order to thank Xiao Jiu for his friendship, Gongsun Lonely specially ordered someone to find two dwarf pines and a pair of purple jade Ruyi, and sent them to Yinglin Garden.

After receiving the dwarf pine and jade Ruyi, Xiao Jiu hurriedly brought the pair of purple jade Ruyi to Xiyuan, one to Man Xue, and the other to Fang Ying.

"Husband, how is the acting skills of the concubine?"

After taking the purple jade Ruyi, Man Xue hurriedly asked Xiao Jiu.

"Very good! I was stunned for that Du Fang, even my husband, I was almost bluffed by you! ”

"Hey, hey! It's just that I'm really sorry for Sister Du Fang this time! ”

Xiao Jiu knew that Manxue, who was the daughter of the martial arts alliance leader in the past, should have a good personal relationship with that Du Fang, and for her own sake, she still deceived Du Fang.

"Don't worry! Don't worry, Miss Du Fang is so eccentric, she will definitely get through, and I believe there will be other good men who are willing to marry her! ”

He was just to help Gongsun die, not to target Du Fang.

It's just that what I didn't expect was that Xiao Jiu's unintentionality was exchanged for ......

"Alliance leader, it is rumored that Miss Du Fang came to my Yinglin Garden a few days ago...... The cantilever committed suicide ......"

Early in the morning, Xiao Jiu had just drunk the porridge sent by the maid Ah Yang, and Qing He rushed in from outside the door to report.

"What?"

How could a good person commit suicide by hanging himself?

"There are rumors outside, and they all say that Miss Du Fang ...... It's because ...... was so disappointed in Gongsun Gongzi that he ...... in a fit of anger Suicide. ”

"If that's the case, then the deity has done evil this time!"

He didn't expect Du Fang to be so fragile, just a man! There is not only Gongsun Lonely in the world, how can he not think about it so much?

Besides, it wasn't the marriage that people Xiangshan Manor withdrew, so it wouldn't make her lose face, so why did she commit suicide by hanging herself?

Originally, Xiao Jiu didn't care about this matter, but he was silent about Du Fang's death for a long time, but within a few days, things gradually deteriorated.

People on the rivers and lakes all said that Du Fang's death was all because Gongsun Lonely and Xiao Jiu privately taught each other, and they were only hung in anger.

Not only that, but even Master Ehua, the leader of the Taisi Shadow Sect, also threatened to be incompatible with Xiangshan Manor and Yinglin Garden.

Seeing that the people outside were talking more and more ugly, Xiao Jiu's reputation was getting more and more scolded.

Coincidentally, at this time, news came from the villa of the old alliance leader that Shen Tang was poisoned and killed.

All of a sudden, the hearts of the entire martial arts people were in turmoil, and at some point, there were rumors that the old alliance leader was killed by Xiao Jiu.

Originally, Xiao Jiu didn't care, but what he didn't expect was that even people within the Wulin League thought that this matter was related to Xiao Jiu.

"Husband, people outside say that my father has passed away, but is it true?"

There are a lot of people talking about this matter, and even Fang Ying heard some rumors, so she had to ask Xiao Jiu

Ask clearly.

Facing Fang Ying's questioning, Xiao Jiu was speechless for a while.

He didn't know whether to tell her or not.

But now that it has become such a situation, it is difficult to hide the death of the old alliance leader.

"Yes, the alliance leader ...... a month ago He has already died. ”

No matter how difficult it was to speak, Xiao Jiu still said it.

He knew that Fang Ying would be sad and sad after learning the news, but he really couldn't hide it.

After saying sorry to the old alliance leader in his heart, Xiao Jiu stretched out his hand and took the stunned Fang Ying into his arms.

"Cry if you want to! For the husband to know, once you tell ...... You're going to be sad...... But...... You're going to know sooner or later......"

Feeling the constant sobbing of the person in his arms, Xiao Jiu's heart also hurt as if he had been trampled on.

He had promised the old league leader that he would not let his two daughters be harmed, and not to tell them the news of his death.

But it backfired, and things couldn't be hidden after all.

In the Martial Arts League, some of the old troops were silently restless, thinking that Xiao Jiu had killed the old alliance leader, and he had a nose and an eye.

Although Xiao Jiu couldn't find out who was demagogic for a while, he still didn't relax any precautions.

If this matter is expected to be correct, it should be Cao Spy behind the scenes.

Cao's father and son, when they learned that they were not killed by the spirit ruin palm, gave birth to this poisonous plan again.

Now that Shen Tang has also been killed, most of the people in the villa are Cao Zhi's people, and he has a hundred mouths, so I'm afraid I can't tell it clearly.

For the sake of today's plan, only by finding evidence that Cao Zhi's father and son murdered the old alliance leader can he prove his innocence.

But how easy is it to find evidence?

"Uncle Qiu, now there are rumors outside that my father was killed by my husband."

"Does Miss Manxue believe it?"

At that time, Manxue had a resolute face on his face, and his eyes were resolute

"I don't believe it! My husband will never murder my father! ”

Hearing this, Qiu An also responded lightly.

"In this case, the subordinates will do their best to help the alliance leader find evidence to prove his innocence."

"Then please Uncle Qiu."

Originally, she was looking for Uncle Qiu to ask him for this matter, but she didn't expect her and Uncle Qiu to think of one thing.

……

At that time, in Bixi Mansion, Cao Spy was sitting proudly with his third brother under the corridor of the mansion at the moment, playing happily!

"Second brother's chess skills seem to be even worse!"

"Hey, hey! It's all taught by my father! Called to eat! ”

Cao Spy's mood at the moment was extremely smooth, looking at the chess game on the chessboard in front of him, he was proud.

The person who played chess with Cao Spy was not someone else, it was his third half-brother Cao Liang.

Because he is not a son-in-law, Cao Liang is always excluded by the Cao brothers, and only Cao Spy has the best relationship with him.

Originally, Cao Liang planned to fish at home and accompany his little grandson to practice big characters, but he suddenly received a letter from Cao Spy saying that he was invited to play chess at home.

"Alright! The younger brother admits defeat! ”

Looking

In the chess game where the wind always fell on the chessboard, Cao Liang threw the white piece in his hand into the chess box next to him in discouragement.

"Hey, hey! You're not the end yet! Why did you throw in the towel? ”

"Oh, old, old! When you're older, it's not as fast as your second brother! ”

Seeing that Cao Liang was so modest, Cao Spy hurriedly waved his hand

"Eh~ If you talk about scheming, how to calculate, it's not as fast as your brain for a brother!"

From childhood to adulthood, don't look at him, the third brother, is a concubine, but he is the smartest among the brothers.

His father praised him as a living Zhuge more than ten years ago.

It's just that the third brother is too gentle, content with the status quo, disdainful of care, and since he married a wife and took a concubine, he set up his own door.

Over the years, it can be regarded as a comfortable and peaceful life.

"The second brother doesn't want to say that, the younger brother would rather be your stupid third brother, just like this for the rest of his life, the younger brother will be content."

Facing his second brother Cao Spy, Cao Liang is still very clear.

He knew everything he did, for what reason, and what the result was, but he never said it.

Even the purpose of inviting himself today, he understood.

But he didn't want to be a pawn on the chessboard of his second brother, he didn't want it when he was young, and he doesn't want to it now.

"Third brother, you must know that with his father's body, he can't support it for long, and above the court, his father has never missed, but the martial arts ......"

"Second brother! The younger brother doesn't care about any of this. ”

Before Cao Spy finished speaking, Cao Liang had already raised his hand to interrupt.

"Third Brother ......"

"Second brother! You know, my little brother's brain has been funny for years, and it's stupid! Please forgive the younger brother for not being talented and unable to help the second brother. ”

Cao Spy's thoughts are clear to Cao Liang.

He wants to use the secret guards he has carefully cultivated to help him do things, and when the time comes, the credit will be all his, if he fails, he will push himself out to take the blame, don't even think about it.

He already knew what kind of person the new successor martial arts alliance leader was. is even clearer about his father's thoughts.

In his father's life, he was always competitive and competitive, and the previous dynasty was not in his hands, and he still wanted to firmly control the power in the martial arts.

Just because his father is not a descendant of the Cao family, he insists on fighting for this breath. In order to reach his so-called height, I don't know how many people's lives were sacrificed.

When he was a child, he once foolishly thought that his persuasion would make his father give up the obsession in his heart, but in the end, he was beaten again and again.

Gradually, he also gave up his persuasion to his father and reined in his edge.

In this life, he just wants to live a happy life, and he doesn't want to be as tired as his father.

Now that he has reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, there is no wave in his heart.

Not to mention the second brother, even if his father personally stood in front of him to persuade him, he would never be with them.

"Third brother!"

"Okay, the little brother has to go back to the house to accompany the little grandson to practice calligraphy! I won't stay long, and I will take my leave. ”

After finishing speaking, Cao Liang put on a straight face, waved his sleeves, and strode away

。

It wasn't until Cao Liang walked away that Cao Spy finally sneered.

"Master, these three masters are so stubborn!"

"Expected! Even his father can't do anything about him, how can he give in to the old man's words? ”

He naturally knew what kind of temper Cao Liang was, and he just wanted to test him today.

A few days ago, my father also confessed to him.

In just one month at the latest, his father will die violently, and his old man's meaning is that he wants to push this matter to Yinglin Yuan.

If Cao Liang still has some conscience, he should share the same hatred with himself for this reason and deal with Meng Jiu's wild cub together!

If he has no backbone...... Don't blame him for using it strongly!

"By the way, has Yi'er come back?"

A few days ago, he had already written to Yi'er who was far away in the capital, and seeing that his grandfather was dying, he had to let him come back to take a look, even if the affairs of the capital were busy, he should not delay.

"The little boy has already sent someone to pass the word, and he will rush back as soon as he is done with the matter at hand."

"Hmmm! Send someone to clean up Yi'er's yard in advance, and be careful. ”

Speaking of his sons, Yi'er is the most blessed.

The eldest Cao Wenqing accidentally fell into the lotus pond and died when he was three years old, and the second Cao Wenxuan died in the hands of Cao Wenyue three years ago, leaving the third Cao Wenyi.

Now most of his father's forces in the capital are in Yi'er's hands, and he has also made some achievements in the past two years, and he finally did not disappoint himself.

Originally, no matter how much he missed his son, he was still reluctant to let him go home, but now that his father is critically ill, if he doesn't let Yi'er come back, I'm afraid that the grandparents and grandchildren will never see each other again.
