…… When Ruan Qingyan rushed back to the village courtyard again, although it was still raining, the east was already white.

After a day and a night of hard work, even if he was in the prime of life, his face was already full of colorlessness at the moment, and his eyes were bloodshot. But his eyes were still bright, and in the depths of his pupils, there seemed to be a flame burning.

He walked into the main room while undressing his clothes, and the two guards behind him dragged a man covered in flesh and blood, not even a coat, the rain mixed with blood, from the threshold to the house, all the way crimson.

"Give me the peace of the road, and I will let the three of you leave Beijing safely!" When he arrived at the door of the inner room, he took the handkerchief handed by Chun Ran tremblingly, wiped his face, and said expressionlessly.

He had been talking about his Qiubo with the two swingers with a "Ruan Qingyan" before, but at this moment, he stood up, bowed to him, and said, "Son's great grace, his subordinates are toothless and unforgettable!" But Brother Nie, he has been studying hard with you for many years, and it is easy to get the title of the gold list......"

"You're late." Ruan Qingyan's tone was emotionless, "Let Qiu Nie raise his head!" ”

When the guards holding Qiu Nie heard this, one of them grabbed Qiu Nie's hair bun and forced him to show his face!

Autumn waves and swings let out an exclamation at the same time!

I saw that on Qiu Nie's face, there were several vertical and horizontal knife marks! In the deepest part, you can already see the cheekbones! Because only a little medicine was sprinkled along the way, the wound was soaked by the rain and turned white, which made it even more hideous!

"You want me to give her a few knives?!" How can you continue to be an official at this point?! Qiu Bo gasped and sat down, but Swing gritted his teeth and put a dagger against Qiu Tuolan's cheek, and shouted angrily!

Ruan Qingyan looked at her for a moment, then suddenly reached out and pulled out the long knife on the guard's waist, pointed obliquely at Qiu Nie's crotch, and said word by word: "I remember that you only have this one brother, and the bloodline of your branch is all counting on him to inherit it?!" ”

Swing's face changed, and he said angrily: "Don't forget that we ...... with you"

"To change or not to change?!" Ruan Qingyan shouted, "Think clearly, he can't die if he goes down with this knife!" ”

Swing took a deep breath: "This one can't die with a few slashes in his face!" ”

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Qiu Bo coughed: "Don't be like this, Qian'er." He saluted Ruan Qingyan again, "Childe, subordinates and Brother Nie, and Qian'er, I'm sorry for you this time." But, 'Tianya' belongs to the Xihe Palace, not yours alone, right? ”

Before her words fell, Qiu Yulan, who looked aggrieved, suddenly raised her head! If it weren't for Qiu Bo who quickly pulled the wrist of the swing when he saw the opportunity, he would almost be picked by the dagger!

It's just that Qiu Yulan didn't care about these at all, and looked at Ruan Qingyan in amazement!

Ruan Qingyan's expression was complicated for an instant, and then he suppressed his distracting thoughts and returned to indifference: "If you want to withdraw, you can tell me, why did you calculate it on Lu Lan?!" Swing, what did you just want to say? Don't you forget that you and I are both of the Qiu bloodline? So that's what you think of when you hold your cousin hostage now! ”

Qiu Yulan only feels that the nine thunders are hitting the top now! She turned her head to look at the swing nearby, and the sweet and cute girl also turned her head and smiled at her: "Reintroduce ...... Silly sister, my name is Qiu, Qiu of the Xihe Wang Qiu family, my biological father, is the one you should call the second uncle, but he has already gone! ”

Seeing Qiu Lulan turning to look at Qiu Bo again, the corners of Qiu Swing's mouth twitched: "She is not our Qiu family!" ”

"Mei Xue, a subordinate of the son, was originally a child's person, and was ordered by the son to take charge of the 'end of the world'. In order to hide people's eyes, Fang changed his name to Qiubo, and as the sister of Nie Brother, he entered Beijing with his son successively! Qiubo, no, it should be said that Mei Xue owed her a debt and said respectfully, "The prince didn't allow it before, so he didn't reveal his identity to the county lord!" ”

"Cousin...... No, you're going to kill me, brother! Hearing this, she no longer knew who Ruan Qingyan was, Qiu Lulan could go directly to die, she wailed again and again in her heart, "You said that since you are my own brother, you are so good to me, why are you hiding it from me?" You've already explained the details of the autumn waves and swings, maybe I don't have to be cheated at all! What now? ”

I only heard Swing say angrily: "Fortunately, he didn't tell me this stupid sister in his heart!" Otherwise, our brother and sister, and Sister Mei, how can you have your life?! ”

She glanced at Ruan Qingyan, who was expressionless, that is, Qiu Jinglan, the former prince of Xihe, who had taken refuge thirteen years ago, and said hesitantly, "If you want to withdraw, I'll tell you...... You say it well! Our brothers and sisters grew up in the 'end of the world' since childhood, and they know the details of the 'end of the world' well; Over the years, you have studied martial arts and literature, and you have been busy with the imperial examination to return to the court, and the 'end of the world' has been handed over to her to take care of - if the three of us want to leave, you can rest assured if you don't kill us?! ”

He also said, "That Qiu Feng is just a close friend of the former Left Protector, and he only entered the 'end of the world' for the sake of the former Left Protector - just because of his martial arts skills and great reputation in the rivers and lakes, after the death of the former Left Protector, you actually concealed the news, falsely claimed that the former Left Protector was harmed, and lied to him to give you his life so far, and you refused to tell him the truth about the death of the former Left Protector!" Do you dare to say that we can still die as long as we show a little intention of leaving?! ”

Qiu Jinglan looked at her coldly: "Did the former Left Protector die of illness, or did Qiu Nie, the Right Protector, do it, in order to let Mei Xue monopolize the power...... You really don't know?! ”

Swing was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "Oh? You know? But you haven't told Autumn Breeze yet! In the final analysis, it's because you didn't notice Mei Xue's betrayal, the three of us still have value for you, no matter how much Qiu Feng has done for you, you always refuse to tell him who killed his close friend! Think about the fact that the former Zuo Protector was really wronged, he was loyal to you when he was alive, but when he died, not only did you not avenge him, but even his friends wanted to seek justice for him, but they were used by you! and even lifted up the man who had killed him...... That is, the Xihe Palace's consistent constraints on the 'end of the world' are layered on top of each other, even if you usually have no time to ask, it is difficult for us to get out of your control! Otherwise, you are also worthy of being in charge of the 'end of the world'?! ”

"I had no intention of being in charge of Tianya in the first place." Qiu Jinglan said hesitantly, "The predecessor of this organization was Da Rui Dingqian, and the ancestors of the Qiu family followed the ancestors of the Chu clan to spy on the news when they conquered the world, and then they were worried that the birds would be hidden, so they secretly stayed to retreat...... It's just that you look at the descendants of the Qiu family, which king of Xihe has invested a lot of effort in it? It exists to assist the King of the West River, but the King of the West River does not exist to run it! ”

Swing said: "No wonder you handed it over to Sister Mei so easily...... No, you're talking about the origin of 'Tianya' - you're stalling for time?! She suddenly became alert, grabbed Qiu Yulan's throat, and shouted, "Don't play tricks!" Will you let us go free?! ”

Qiu Jinglan said coldly: "Give me back the trail, you can leave at any time!" ”

Swing sneered: "This is your only sister, she is worth our three lives?!" Since you are not uncommon to 'Tianya', then 'Tianya' also gives us - it is not too much to ask for the safety of your pearl in your palm, right? ”

"No!" Mei Xue suddenly spoke, "We can't want 'Tianya'!" ”

Swing was stunned: "Why?" ”

"Look at your brother!" Mei Xue looked at the dying Qiu Nie distressedly, "Don't you understand?" Even though Childe didn't interfere much in the operation of 'Tianya', he just didn't bother to spend too much thought, not that he wouldn't! This time, Childe saw the flaw, and the order of the purge must have spread all over the world - do you dare to ask for such a 'world'?! Are you afraid that you won't die fast enough? ”

Swing bit his lip and said, "Then we want silver!" There are still tens of millions of taels of silver in the account of 'Tianya', and we want at least half of them! ”

"No!" Before Qiu Jinglan could answer, Mei Xue actually stopped her again, and she said in a deep voice, "Qian'er, you really want money and don't want to die - without the 'Tianya' as a cover, now that Brother Nie's appearance is damaged, he can't be an official, even if we defect to the Empress Dowager Gu, can we keep such a huge amount of money?!" ”

Swing said angrily: "Stupid! Can't you take it and dedicate it to the Queen Mother?! ”

"That can indeed win the favor of the Queen Mother." Mei Xue said calmly, "But have you thought about it?" The Queen Mother is not the only one we please! What will the other people who can't afford to pay five million taels of silver to pay homage do?! ”

Swing froze.

Qiu Jinglan hesitantly: "Idiot! Do you know why Mei Xue is in charge of the 'end of the world' on my behalf, and you don't even have my permission to do anything to her? In terms of thoughtfulness, you little thing is far behind! ”

"Sister Mei, what do we want?!" Swing's eyes flashed with resentment, and he said coldly!

Mei Xue took a deep breath: "Silver, we only need 100,000 taels." Brother Nie and Qian'er are the blood and blood of your second uncle, and your second uncle can't be raised in the palace due to illness, so it's not much. ”

"What else?" Qiu Jinglan asked noncommittally.

"You have to swear by the safety of Lord Ningyi - you will not harm us in any way! Give us back complete freedom! After Mei Xue said this, her body shook slightly, obviously, she was extremely nervous!

Swing dared to scold Qiu Jinglan, one is that she is Qiu Jinglan's cousin; The second is that her understanding of Qiu Jinglan is far less in-depth than Mei Xue! The so-called ignorant are fearless...... Mei Xue knows Qiu Jinglan's methods and ruthlessness, although she has been planning for today for many years, she can't help but panic when it comes to the end!

After a long time, Qiu Jinglan smiled, and her smile was cold: "Then you are free to take revenge on me?" ”

"We'll swear no enemies of you!" Mei Xue said busily.

Qiu Jinglan said calmly: "Back then, you also swore to be loyal to me forever!" ”

“…… Then you swear by the safety of the county lord of Ningyi, and let us enter the Guangyang palace safely! Mei Xue sighed in her heart, the result she hoped for the most was that Qiu Jinglan cared about chaos and was willing to agree to the oath in front of her. But although Qiu Jinglan did take Qiu Jinglan very seriously, she was much calmer than she imagined, so she could only retreat to the second.

This time, Qiu Jinglan immediately replied: "Yes!" ”

Mei Xue became more and more vigilant when she heard this: "Then please swear!" ”

"I ......" Qiu Jinglan just said one word, and in the brick wall behind Mei Xue and the swing, suddenly two black lights shot out silently!

"Be careful—" Qiu Nie, who had only one breath left, tried his best to remind him - but before he could finish speaking, Mei Xue and Swing had both been hit and fell to the ground!

The swing is also considered tenacious, and the tip of the arrow has been exposed to his chest, but he still tries hard to grab the dagger and continue to hold Qiu Yulan hostage. However, she stretched out her hand forward, and her slender five fingers had been stepped on by Qiu Jinglan!

"Hold them down, don't let them die!" Qiu Jinglan exerted a slight force, and a crisp bone cracking sound immediately came from the sole of the boot - the swing screamed, and he fainted directly in pain!
