Chapter 30: Reckoning

However, he said that since Liu Wenfei obtained the qualification to enter Tianyi Pavilion, the guilt in his heart was far greater than his excitement, After all, he usually had a good relationship with Duan Feng, Han Qing and others, and originally wanted to follow Duan Feng to participate in the selection, but it turned out to be such a thing.

He knew Yun Tianlong's personality, but under the pressure of his brother, in order to be able to enter Tianyi Pavilion, he still sought Yun Tianlong's help, and Yun Tianlong seemed to be very willing to get acquainted with this young master of the Liu family.

Yun Tianlong's relationship with Duan Feng on weekdays is obvious to everyone. Everyone speculated that if it weren't for the power of the Duan family, I am afraid that Yun Tianlong would have attacked Duan Feng a long time ago, after all, the strong financial resources of Qingshui Villa were enough to compete with most of the officials in the country.

Moreover, since Yun Tianlong obtained the qualification, he has become more arrogant and domineering in the Qi Control Hall, except for Liu Nanchun, he does not take anyone in his eyes, although he still does not dare to openly provoke the authority of the Duan family, but his words are full of disdain for Duan Feng, and Duan Feng only turns a blind eye to this, which further fuels Yun Tianlong's arrogance.

On this day, Liu Wenfei was depressed and sleeping in the room with his head covered, when he suddenly heard a knock on the door, and the voice was very urgent.

"It's a wind!"

Liu Wenfei's first reaction was Duan Feng, because Duan Feng knocked on the door differently from others, he always knocked on the door with two hands, and the strength of the two hands knocking on the door was not the same, and familiar people could hear it as soon as they heard it.

Liu Wenfei hurriedly climbed down from the bed, rubbed his eyes and opened the door to see that it was indeed Duan Feng, and he immediately came to his senses.

"Wind ······ Brother Wind!"

"What, won't you invite me in?" Duan Feng joked as he looked at Liu Wenfei's surprised expression.

"Oh-please come in!" Liu Wenfei hurriedly let Duan Feng into the room, and then followed behind Duan Feng crampedly, as if this was someone else's room.

"What's wrong with you?" Looking at Liu Wenfei's cramped appearance, Duan Feng asked.

"No······ It's nothing. ”

Seeing Liu Wenfei's self-reproachful look, Duan Feng just smiled slightly, patted him on the shoulder, sat on the stool, and didn't say anything to blame.

"Actually, you don't have to, you are different from Yun Tianlong, we all understand, and you haven't done anything to be sorry for us. ”

"But Sister Su ······" Liu Wenfei lowered his head reproachfully.

"It's okay, Miss Su's injuries have stabilized, and it has nothing to do with you, all of this was done by Yun Tianlong, you just happened to team up with him temporarily, didn't you?"

"When······ Of course, I never considered him a friend. ”

"That's it, so you don't have to feel guilty. Duan Feng smiled and said, "We have always treated you as a younger brother, and no one will blame you." ”

"Thank you, Brother Feng. Liu Wenfei nodded gratefully.

"But······ I'm here to ask you for a favor. Duan Feng said after hesitating for a while.

Liu Wenfei looked at Duan Feng suspiciously, and it could be seen from Duan Feng's embarrassed face that this was extraordinary, but he was sure that there should be no danger, Duan Feng would never let others take risks for him, and he still understood this.

"Brother Feng asked me to do whatever I wanted, I will do my best. ”

"That's good! I'll thank you first. ”

Then Duan Feng explained his intention, and after listening, Liu Wenfei was a little hesitant in his heart, although he really wanted to help Duan Feng, but this matter did take a certain risk, and he was likely to put himself in it if he was a little careless.

"Since Brother Feng came to me, this matter must be very important. Liu Wenfei asked.

"It's about seven lives," Duan Feng affirmed.

Liu Wenfei hesitated for a moment, thinking to himself, even if he failed, he would not be able to enter Tianyi Pavilion, anyway, he had no intention of pursuing a career, and he could be regarded as carrying the black pot for Duan Feng, and it would be an excuse to prevaricate his brother at that time, even if he was angry, his brother's anger would not be able to reach him.

"Okay then! I promise you!" replied Liu Wenfei.

The two discussed some specific details, and then Duan Feng left satisfied.

The next day, Duan Feng took advantage of the fact that Duan Tiande accompanied Ouyang Zhen to inspect the city defense, and took Liu Wenfei to Duan's mansion and found Duan Yun directly.

At this time, Duan Yun was practicing in the bedroom, the door was closed, although he didn't know what the eldest brother was practicing, but outsiders never dared to disturb, Duan Feng once tried to peek, but was discovered by his father, and was locked up for half a year, since then, as long as the eldest brother practiced behind closed doors, Duan Feng would obediently wait outside the door.

Duan Feng and Liu Wenfei waited outside the door for about an hour before they were allowed to enter.

Liu Wenfei saw that Duan Yun didn't salute and said directly: "Brother Qing, I want to meet the envoy." ”

Duan Yunpan sat on the bed, his face was flushed, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, as if he had gone through a fierce battle, his eyes were slightly closed, and he said, "Why?"

"I have something to report to the envoy. Liu Wenfei said according to the plan, and kept looking at Duan Feng's eyes next to him.

"What's the matter?

Liu Wenfei looked at Duan Feng, the two exchanged a look, and said, "I want to give up the quota for entering Tianyi Pavilion." ”

This made Duan Yun startled at first, opened his eyes suddenly, and then asked calmly, "Give up? Are you sure? This is an opportunity that you have worked so hard to get." ”

Liu Wenfei glanced at Duan Feng again, his heart sank, and said, "I'm sure." ”

Without waiting for Duan Yun to ask, Liu Wenfei preemptively said: "In terms of qualifications and ability, I think Brother Feng is more qualified than me, so I want to give him the opportunity, and I hope that Brother Duan can say a few kind words in front of the city lord." ”。

Liu Wenfei's words really made Duan Yun feel shocked, and he didn't speak for a long time, but looked at Duan Feng next to him suspiciously.

Duan Feng carefully observed Duan Yun's expression beside him, when he heard that Liu Wenfei was going to give up the quota to himself, Duan Yun's expression suddenly turned to the side, and he seemed to be very nervous, although Duan Yun tried his best to hide it, but he was still looked at by himself, seeing this, Duan Feng was even more convinced of his guess.

Liu Wenfei saw that Duan Yun didn't speak, and wanted to continue to add.

"No!" Duan Yun said categorically.

This frightened Liu Wenfei not daring to say more, but secretly looked at Duan Feng.

Duan Yun noticed that he was a little excited, so he said calmly: "How can this kind of thing be changed casually? Besides, this is the special envoy's decision, and Feng'er is at fault first, according to the rules, he can't participate in the selection, even if it's a member of the Duan family, he can't break the rules." ”

Duan Feng saw that there was a drama in this matter, so he immediately added: "Big brother, please help me." Just tell your dad about it, your dad usually trusts you the most, and entering Tianyi Pavilion is also a glorious thing for our Duan family, and it is also a glorious thing for the lintel. ”

Duan Yun was unmoved, looked at his younger brother coldly, and still insisted on his decision.

Duan Feng couldn't see that it was soft, and said directly: "If the eldest brother doesn't agree, then I'll go directly to my father to talk about it!"

While speaking, Duan Feng pulled Liu Wenfei and was about to leave, and just as the two were about to go out, Duan Yun hurriedly said: "Stop! ”

Duan Feng turned around and said, "Then I'll go directly to the envoy, anyway, I have to enter Tianyi Pavilion." ”

Duan Yun's face sank, his sword eyebrows straightened, and he blurted out: "You are looking for death!"

Then, Duan Yun knew that he was speechless, and immediately said: "You don't need to ask about this matter anymore, my father will definitely not agree." ”

"Why? Won't I be able to give it a try?" Duan Feng asked discouragedly.

Duan Yun resolutely rejected Duan Feng's request, he was worried that once his younger brother went to Ouyang Zhen to intercede, an unexpected situation was likely to occur, although Ouyang Zhen acquiesced in his father's behavior of preventing his younger brother from entering Tianyi Pavilion, but if his younger brother had to enter, then I am afraid that Ouyang Zhen would change his decision.

But he can't tell his younger brother the truth of the matter, with his own understanding of this younger brother, once he knows the truth, he will inevitably do something out of the ordinary, I'm afraid, the secret of the emperor's tomb will no longer exist, and when the time comes, Ouyang Zhen will play his father's book in the court, and the Duan family will not be able to eat and go around.

After grinding at Duan Yun for about half an hour, although Duan Feng did not find out the truth of the matter, he also understood eight points in his heart, and if he continued to ask, he was afraid that it would arouse the suspicion of the eldest brother. So Duan Feng took Liu Wenfei and prepared to leave.

Finally, when the two of them walked to the door, Duan Yun stopped Liu Wenfei again and added, "Fei'er, if you really don't want to enter Tianyi Pavilion, then quickly withdraw from it." ”

From this sentence, Duan Feng was even more convinced of his suspicions, that is, these seven people were by no means prepared to enter Tianyi Pavilion as Ouyang Zhen said, but to send them to death.

After returning to his residence, Duan Feng called Han Qing to his room and told Han Qing his guess.

Han Qing did not express the anger that Duan Feng was expecting, but was very calm, which made Duan Feng a little disappointed.

"What do you think I should do?" Duan Feng asked.

Han Qing looked at Duan Feng coldly, and after a while, said, "Wait and see." ”

"Wait and see?" Duan Feng shouted anxiously, "They're going to die soon!"

"So what? It's not up to us to decide, and even your father is probably powerless to change it. ”

"We can't watch them die, can we?"

"It's their fate. Han Qing's eyes were full of melancholy, "Everyone has their own fate, which cannot be changed by human beings." ”

In the face of Han Qing's fatalism, Duan Feng was a little disappointed in his heart, he thought that Han Qing was a resolute person who refused to admit defeat, and would definitely support him to make changes, but he never thought that he would accept this unfair arrangement so easily.

"I don't accept this fate, and I won't let my friends die. Duan Feng said.

Han Qing looked at Duan Feng's righteous and awe-inspiring expression, and shook his head with a helpless smile.

While the two were talking, Liu Yuwei pushed the door from outside and walked in, followed by Su Yanjun.

Since Han Qing expressed her good impression of Su Yanjun, Liu Yuwei immediately gave up her hostility towards her, and instead was keen to match the two from time to time.

After coming in, Liu Yuwei sat directly on Duan Feng's bed and said, "I saw someone lying in front of your door just now eavesdropping, what did you say?"

Duan Feng was taken aback by this question, and hurriedly ran out to take a look, but the person had already run away.

"Do you see who it is?" asked Han Qing.

"It seems to be Bai Jingrui. Su Yanjun replied.

"Is it? Isn't he from Yun Tianlong?" Han Qing said, Han Qing continued, "If it's really him, then it's bad. Yun Tianlong will definitely know about this as well. ”

"What are you talking about?" Liu Yuwei got off the bed, walked over to Han Qing and sat down.

Han Qing looked at Duan Feng, who was still thinking about the question with a serious face, and did not answer Liu Yuwei.

Duan Feng looked at Han Qing and said, "Maybe, things won't be so bad. ”

Han Qing looked at Duan Feng and immediately understood what Duan Feng meant, he wanted to tell this secret through Yun Tianlong's mouth.

This made him feel worried, he knew Yun Tianlong, this person was despicable and shameless, and he was quite scheming, and he wanted to use him, and if he was not careful, he would probably set himself on fire.

Duan Feng said again: "I understand your worries, although I don't like Yun Tianlong either. Although Yun Tianlong is hateful, his sin does not lead to death, and the others are also innocent. ”

The conversation between the two made Liu Yuwei and Su Yanjun confused, and seeing the puzzled expressions of the two, Duan Feng said: "Don't get involved in this matter, you will know when the time comes." ”

The four of them chatted for a while, and then went back to their lodgings.

As Han Qing expected, Bai Jingrui told Yun Tianlong the truth what he heard, and Yun Tianlong was furious when he heard it. What he was angry about was not that he would be used as a sacrifice, but that Liu Nanchun didn't tell him about it.

Yun Tianlong thought that he was Liu Nanchun's person, at least they were in the same boat, and he took such a big risk for him, but he didn't expect Liu Nanchun to be so ruthless to himself.

But after calming down, Yun Tianlong plans not to turn his face to Liu Nanchun for the time being, and he still needs Liu Nanchun's help, not to mention that with Liu Nanchun's smuggling of black iron, he can put him to death, and he is not in a hurry, now that he knows the truth, he will be more careful with Liu Nanchun in the future.

Yun Tianlong thought about it again and again, and decided that this was an excellent opportunity to deal with Duan Feng, if he was lucky, it was likely that he would clean it up together with Duan Tiande, it would be even more perfect, at least he could kick the Duan family's forces out of the Qi Control Division, and then gradually insert the people from Qingshui Villa in.

Thinking of this, Yun Tianlong felt a burst of joy in his heart, so he sent someone to call Liu Wenfei to his room.
