All the people in the hall were frightened, and they all looked up and looked around, but they did not even see a single figure. But he heard someone rushing in, and said in a panic: "Senior sister, Senior Uncle Nangong is here." ”

"Where?" Lu Manxue has been helped up, her hair is messy, the rouge on her face is floating, and her eyes are sharp like ghosts.

"It's already in......" The person who came raised his finger, and sure enough, he saw Nangong Jiuzhong walking in with Jian Huaizhen and Lan Jing. Lu Manxue's face changed in shock. And everyone in the palace knows Nangong Jiuzhong, but few know Jian Huaizhen and Lan Jing. They knew that Nangong Jiuzhong had always been good friends with Shangguan Mingfeng, and they were not surprised that she had come to congratulate Lu Manxue on her accession to the throne.

Lu Manxue's heart turned a thousand times. Last time, she led someone to assassinate Shangguan Jingran and failed, and Shangguan Jingran was also rescued by Jian Huaizhen. At that time, she knew that Jian Huaizhen's martial arts were unfathomable, and he might even be above Nangong Jiuzhong and Shangguan Mingfeng. Therefore, when I saw them coming, I only thought that Shangguan was shocked and brought them here, and I was very frightened for a while.

"What are you here for? The family matter of the candle shadow shaking red has nothing to do with you outsiders! Lu Manxue forced her composure, glared at Jian Huaizhen viciously for three days, and bit her lower lip and said.

Nangong Jiuzhong smiled calmly: "You said that the candle shadow shaking red has nothing to do with my Nangong Jiuzhong, but that's it." You said that it has nothing to do with my young lady, which is very wrong. The candle shadow shakes the red and the confession door was established by my young lady back then, and later entrusted me and Mingfeng to take care of it. Now, although it has been a long time, how can it be said that the family affairs of the candle shadow shaking red have nothing to do with the young lady? How did the young lady become an outsider? ”

Nangong Jiuzhong smiled at the corner of his mouth, and his words were soft and indifferent, but in Lu Manxue's ears, it was like five thunderbolts. She was furious and said, "Nangong Jiuzhong, you are joking." Our candle shadow shakes red three thousand disciples, who doesn't know that Jian Huaizhen and my master Shangguan Mingfeng have a common hatred? My master died at her hands, and Jian Huaizhen is our enemy who shakes the red candle shadow! Senior brothers and sisters, are you just letting Master's murderer go unpunished? Haven't you ever thought about avenging Master? ”

The people in the candle shadow shaking red really thought that Shangguan Mingfeng died in the hands of Jian Huaizhen. Lu Manxue's words suddenly made them feel surging. Lu Manxue took the opportunity to say: "In this case, the matter in our palace will be solved another day, and we will deal with Jian Huaizhen together today, what do you think?" ”

"Good! Just listen to the senior sister! I don't know who took the lead in shouting, and the rest of the people shouted one after another, and the crowd was excited for a while.

When their voices faded a little, Shangguan stood in the center of the crowd in shock, with a slight doubt in her eyes, and her voice was a little difficult: "Actually...... Actually, Jian Huaizhen is not as you say, maybe Master..... Master's death had nothing to do with her. But her voice was quickly drowned out.

"I don't know what to live or die!" Lan Jing's face was quite disdainful, and she said loudly: "Do you want to rebel? Even the emperor's aunt and grandmother have to be killed? It seems that the imperial court should send someone to extinguish the candle shadow and shake the red. ”

When the people in the hall heard that Jian Huaizhen was actually the emperor's aunt and grandmother, they couldn't accept it for a while, they stood on the spot in a daze, and they all raised their eyes to look at Lu Manxue. Lu Manxue was also quite stunned, she never dreamed that Jian Huaizhen was actually a member of the royal family, and she was the emperor's aunt and grandmother, and the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty. I couldn't help but feel secretly annoyed in my heart, targeting the wrong person, but it was difficult to recover, so I had to be stunned there.

Nangong Jiuzhong took the opportunity to say to Yuluo's mother-in-law: "Yuluo, when Mingfeng died, you were also there. How did she die, have you forgotten? Do you want to let Shi Heng get away with it, and let the young lady be wronged? I, Nangong Jiuzhong, am the master of a dignified faction, and I will never say anything. ”

"Yes!" Mother-in-law Yuluo suddenly turned her face, opened her cloudy eyes, looked at Nangong Jiuzhong, the expression on her face became very hideous and terrifying, and the crutches in her hand rattled: "It was Shi Heng who did the sin!" But Princess Huaizhen, don't you have any responsibility at all? Twenty or thirty years ago, you handed over the candle shadow to the palace master, and handed over the confession door to the Nangong master. You went away alone and lived in seclusion, never asking about the gang again. It was the palace master who worked hard to hold it up, and the candle shadow shook red. Over the years, she has done her best to shake the candle shadow and carry it forward. But what about you? What have you done? Now as soon as you come back, you want to snatch the palace master's candle shadow and shake it red. If it weren't for you, how could the palace master die? Manxue is right, you are the culprit who killed the palace master! ”

It turned out that after Shangguan Mingfeng became the palace master, he quickly exiled the old people in the palace one after another, and accepted many new disciples, so many people in the palace did not know Jian Huaizhen. Now when I hear the truth of the matter, I can't help but be surprised.

Nangong Jiuzhong smiled lightly: "The rain falls, your words are wrong." If it weren't for Ming Feng's dissent, how could he end up like this? At that time, the young lady established the candle shadow and confession door in order to deal with the traitors in the court and the adulterous concubines in the palace. Now, the candle shadow is shaking red, but it has become an organization for Mingfeng to compete for power. Who is right and who is wrong, won't you know who is wrong? Ladies and gentlemen, this time we have come to shake the candle shadow red, and it is about the palace master. The position of the palace master was originally supposed to be taken over by the disciple who shook the red candle shadow, but unfortunately the old people in the palace were scattered, and among the new disciples, Lu Manxue had the best martial arts. Although Shangguan was shocked, he was pure-hearted, but he did not do anything more. Therefore, the palace master whose candle shadow is red will be replaced by Lan Jing. ”

Everyone looked up and saw a woman with an extremely ugly appearance and an age similar to Shangguan Mingfeng coming forward. She was dressed in a lake-blue shirt, with an ordinary bun on her head, and there was arrogance between her eyebrows, but she never saw anything unusual about ordinary people. As a result, everyone's eyes showed injustice.

Nangong Jiu saw that everyone was not convinced, and said softly to Jian Huaizhen: "Miss, Lan Jingyuan is not a person who shakes the red shadow of the candle, and rashly takes over as the palace master, but I am afraid that the disciples in the palace will not obey."

Jian Huaizhen pondered for a moment, and said slowly in a very calm tone: "Since this is the case, you should stop fighting with force." ”

Lan Jing glanced at Jian Huaizhen and said coldly, "You want me to kill them all?" Such a ruthless thing, I Lan Jing can't do it. ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled silently, and Nangong Jiuzhong couldn't help but laugh a little and said: "Thousands of disciples in the candle shadow shaking red, how can you kill it with a single Lan Jing?" What our young lady means is that you want to find the person with the highest martial arts or the oldest qualifications to come out to fight, and if you beat them, wouldn't you be able to sit on the throne of the palace master? ”

Lan Jing said repeatedly: "This is a good idea. I can see that in fact, they are not very opposed to me being the palace master, only a few people look at me unpleasantly. After speaking, Lang Sheng said: "Since you are not convinced by my Lan Jing, so let's do it, you send a few people with the highest kung fu to compete with me." If I lose, I, Lan Jing, will leave immediately. If I win, what do you think? ”

The so-called world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. The disciples of the Candle Shadow Shake Red sect heard that Jian Huaizhen was originally a princess in the royal family, and the Candle Shadow Shake Red was originally created by her, and now she wants to take it back, of course, it is justified. It's just that they saw that Lan Jing didn't seem to be outstanding, so they were a little unconvinced. Therefore, Lan Jing volunteered to compete with the person with the highest martial arts in the palace, which was in their arms.

Of course, not everyone thinks that way. Lu Manxue wanted to be the palace master, but now she has a halfway way to bite the gold, she looks old and ugly, and her personality is reckless and impulsive, so she is naturally unwilling in her heart. And Yuluo remembered Shangguan Mingfeng's affection for her at the beginning, and she was unwilling to let the candle shadow shake red and return to Jian Huaizhen's hands.

"So, which of you wants to come out and compete with me?" Lan Jing asked with a grin. Her martial arts were originally good, but in the past twenty or thirty years, after Jiang Shaoheng's mention, she has naturally improved by leaps and bounds. She saw a net bottle on the altar in the palace, and a few willow branches were inserted in the net bottle. Then a harrier turned over, stepped forward slightly, folded half of the willow in his hand, and folded it back with a smile.

She was a little smug and said, "I will use this willow branch as a weapon to teach you a lot." After all, I want to be your palace master, of course I have to let you. Her casual two sentences, but the disciple who taught the candle shadow to shake red had a very good impression of her.

Although Lu Manxue wanted to fight for the head of the family and was not angry about the power, she never knew how high Lan Jing's martial arts were, so she didn't dare to fight rashly, so she said to Yuluo coldly: "Mother-in-law Yuluo, don't you claim to be loyal to my master?" Now that the foundation she worked so hard to build is about to fall into the hands of others, don't you even care? ”

Yuluo has a fiery temper, and is loyal to Shangguan Mingfeng, hearing Lu Manxue's few words of agitation, he was really angry, and said: "The old woman is definitely not the person who has no courage in your mouth. In that case, let the old woman learn your skills. After speaking, he didn't say anything anymore, raised the dragon head crutch in his hand and smashed it at Lan Jing.

Lan Jing hurriedly stepped forward, and the two of them fought together. Yuluo's mother-in-law's martial arts were originally far inferior to Lan Jing, but in this battle, she had already made up her mind to die, so her gestures were all fatal. Her dragon head crutch is made of thousand-year-old fine iron, and it is very strong, and Lan Jing is only half a willow stick, and she has already suffered a big loss in weapons. In addition, she didn't want to hurt Yuluo's mother-in-law's life, so she showed mercy everywhere, so the two of them became inseparable.

The two of them fought for more than 20 moves, and the situation was a little bad. Mother-in-law Yuluo has already gained the upper hand in momentum, and Lan Jing has less confidence the more she fights. For a while, only silver light was seen in the battle group, and everywhere you looked up, it was the shadow of the rain falling on the mother-in-law's dragon head crutches.

Jian Huaizhen frowned slightly, silent in thought. Nangong Jiuzhong whispered beside her: "Miss, if you continue to fight like this, within ten moves, I'm afraid Lan Jing will be defeated." ”

Jian Huaizhen nodded slightly, sighed, and said, "Did you see it too?" But I never thought that Yuluo's mother-in-law would be so heartfelt to Mingfeng. Her kung fu is far inferior to Lan Jing, and I am afraid that there is still room for maneuver in the dispute between the two. It's just—it's just that if Lan Jing uses all her strength, Granny Yuluo will definitely be seriously injured. If she didn't use all her strength, I'm afraid it would be difficult for Lan Jing to get out of the way. ”

"What Mademoiselle said is very true. What should be done now? Nangong Jiuzhong's eyebrows were full of worry and asked.

Jian Huaizhen pondered slightly, and with a slight movement of his fingers, a plum blossom needle as thin as a gnat quietly came out. The plum blossom needle is impartial, and it hits the dragon's head crutch of the mother-in-law who falls on the rain. Mother-in-law Yuluo was fighting bravely, but she suddenly felt that she couldn't use her strength in her arms, and the whole crutch seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. She thought it was her advanced age that she had exerted too much force, so she sighed and raised her crutches again. And in this sigh, the momentum on her body has dissipated.
