Lan Jing raised her face, looked at her for a long time, and then snorted: "Are you like that kind of person when I am Lan Jing?" "Don't look over your head and don't look at her anymore.

Jian Huaizhen knew that she was concerned about Jiang Shaoheng's safety, so she didn't say anything more, and said slowly: "This trip is really dangerous and abnormal. Don't say anything else, just Uncle Qin, I'm afraid that I, Brother Jiang, and Brother Fang combined, will barely be her opponent. It's even harder for others to deal with. Why don't you do it like this? Brother Jiang, when the time comes, please deal with Chen Chaoli. Brother Fang, please deal with Nangong Dieyu. Yan'er, you lead the people of the confession door against the people of 'heaven and earth'. Lan Jing, how about I ask you to take over the Candle Shadow Shake Red and fight against the people of Ling Xiao Pavilion? I'll deal with it. As for Uncle Qin, none of us are her opponents, so we can only take one step at a time. ”

Lan Jing raised her eyebrows, looked at Jian Huaizhen with some annoyance, and said, "Jian Huaizhen, why are you making fun of me?" Candle Shadow Shake Red is one of the four major organizations in the rivers and lakes, are you willing to entrust me so easily? I won't be like the master of Nangong, willing to listen to you in everything. ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled slightly: "The candle shadow shaking red was originally Xin'er's hard work. I don't want it to go down like that. The people in the palace are now fighting each other, and someone must take care of it. As for other thoughts, I don't have them. ”

When the moon was in the sky, the snow-like moonlight passed through the window lattice, leaking low on Lan Jing's cheeks. She is no longer young, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes are fine and dense, like the traces of wisps of time. She didn't expect Jian Huaizhen to entrust such a huge organization to her, and she would trust someone who had drugged her so much. For a moment, she was a little embarrassed, but it was inconvenient to reveal it, and she still said firmly: "Since this is the case, it doesn't hurt to try." It's not what I want to take care of, it's you who entrusted me. Although her mouth was still stiff, her tone of voice involuntarily softened.

Jian Huaizhen still smiled lightly, and his smile was as clear as moonlight: "Well, everyone here has seen it, I entrusted it to you." I'll go and tell the emperor tomorrow that we'll leave in two days. Tomorrow, I will go with Lan Jing and Jiuzhong to the Nanjing headquarters where the candle shadow is red. On this side of the palace, there will be Brother Lao Jiang and Brother Fang. ”

Jiang Shaoheng said kindly: "Zhen'er, don't worry." Fang Xiao also let out a soft "um" to show his reply. Jian Huaizhen knew in his heart that his family and ten clans all died at the hands of his father, and even though decades had passed, it was inevitable that there would still be resentment in his heart. Now that he is willing to protect the emperor, he is already very righteous. As for the rest, it was barely possible. Therefore, she nodded to him.

After the deployment, there was no word all night. Early the next morning, Jian Huaizhen took Lan Jing and Nangong Jiuzhong to the headquarters of Nanjing Candle Shadow Shake Red.

Nanjing was the capital of the Ming Dynasty. After Zhu Yuanzhang was proclaimed emperor, he changed it to Yingtianfu. Later, in the sixth year of orthodoxy, Yingtianfu was renamed Nanjing.

The general tribe of candle shadow shaking red Xia Palace is located in the northeast of Nanjing, at the foot of Qixia Mountain. Luoxia Palace, formerly known as Qixia House, was originally an ordinary house. Later, Shangguan Mingfeng took power, and after Jian Huaizhen returned to seclusion, she ordered people to repair Qixia Ju, build a palace-style house with three entrances in the east, west, north and south, build a glazed tile roof, paint the pillars with bright yellow colors, and use gold in the center of the palace to shape a colorful phoenix, the golden light is shining, and the sky is long singing, in order to show her honor. And Qi Xiaju was also renamed Luoxia Palace by her.

In fact, the headquarters of Candle Shadow Shake Red was originally in Suncheonfu. Shangguan Mingfeng always felt that the place where Jian Huaizhen was in Beijing was uneasy all day long, so he privately moved his headquarters to Nanjing. She usually cares most about her maid background, and hopes to erase this pen forever, because usually in the palace, she never mentions Jian Huaizhen's name, and the disciple of the candle shadow is red, only knowing that there is Shangguan Mingfeng but not knowing that there is Jian Huaizhen.

Later, Jian Huaizhen issued an order to the rivers and lakes, and ordered Candle Shadow to shake red and confess the door to track down Yu Qian's news. The disciples in the palace knew that there was a palace master above the original palace master. Shangguan Mingfeng was unwilling, so he colluded with Shi Heng to cause the disaster behind.

Shangguan Mingfeng's favorite thing before her death was the little disciple Shangguan Shock, and now she died suddenly, leaving no will to assign the next palace master. The eldest sister in the palace, Lu Manxue, was ambitious, and she was determined to be the person at the helm, and she was afraid that Shangguan would be shocked and would cause obstacles to her accession, so she chased and killed her everywhere.

Last time, after Lu Manxue chased and killed Shangguan and was shocked, she was seen hiding in Huaiming Garden. She knew that there was a peerless master Jiang Shaoheng living in seclusion in Huaiming Garden, so she took people to guard outside for a few days, but found nothing. She was frightened by Shangguan, so she took people back to Nanjing. Today is a good day for her to ascend the throne of the palace master.

Lu Manxue was dressed in a vermilion splendid ornament, with a high Wangxian bun on her head, and a bright hairpin ring around her hair, standing on the throne. On both sides of the main hall, the disciples with red candle shadows stood solemnly, waiting for the ceremony to begin.

"I invite the senior sister to offer incense to pay tribute to the master." A young woman in a turquoise lake silk shirt shouted. All the people shouted in unison: "Senior sister, please go to the incense to pay tribute to the master." ”

Lu Manxue held back the smile on the corner of her mouth, took the high incense in the hand of the blue-shirted woman, stood up, and walked to the front of Shangguan Mingfeng's ranking. In her dark gray eyes, there was an unstoppable pride.

"Wait!" Suddenly, someone shouted. Lu Manxue and everyone in the palace turned their heads to look. A woman in snow-white clothes slowly walked out of the crowd.

The candle shadow shook the red, and there were originally three thousand disciples and palace people, and there were two long rows standing in the main hall. Although Lu Manxue is a senior sister, it is impossible for everyone to know her. She also decided that Shangguan was afraid of her, and she didn't dare to come out of Huaiming Garden. Therefore, it is safe to boldly take the position. Unexpectedly, it turned out that Shangguan Jingran had already sneaked back to Nanjing, blended in with the palace people and disciples, and prevented Lu Manxue from ascending the throne.

"Sure enough, it's you dead girl!" Lu Manxue was a little frightened in her heart, she was not afraid of Shangguan being shocked, but she was afraid that she would bring any helpers, so she looked around. When it was certain that she was going to the meeting alone, she couldn't help but laugh wildly, and the laughter was wanton and high, and the whole person stood on the temple, like a delicate flower with trembling branches.

"Shangguan is shocked, you rebellious traitor. You have betrayed Master and taken refuge in Jian Huaizhen. Do you dare to come back and die? Come on, hack her to death with a sword! Lu Manxue's eyebrows, a blood-red beauty mole was like a red blood droplet, dazzling.

Shangguan stared at her fiercely, and said with a little sadness: "Senior sister, we are born from the same root, why are we in a hurry!" Do you need to kill people so quickly? I rushed back today to prevent you from ascending to the throne of the palace master. Master, just a few days after her old man died, you took someone north to kill me. I have also heard that several of the senior sisters in the palace who disobeyed you all died at your hands. You kill your fellow disciples indiscriminately, and you are not worthy of being the head of the candle shadow shaking red. ”

"Shangguan is shocked, don't lie here to confuse the public! Why don't you kill this traitor for me? It was she who colluded with Jian Huaizhen to kill her master! If anyone kills her, who will be the big brother and sister of the candle shadow in the future! Lu Manxue shouted loudly, her eyebrows were raised, and her eyes seemed to be about to cry and bleed.

As soon as these words came out, sure enough, twenty or thirty disciples came out at that time and surrounded Shangguan in the center. They all held sharp swords in their hands, and the sword light was awe-inspiring and cold.

Among the three thousand disciples in the palace of Candle Shadow Shake Red, most of them were very dissatisfied with Lu Manxue's actions and her flamboyant and domineering character, but they all dared to be angry and did not dare to speak. Seeing that Lu Manxue ordered someone to kill Shangguan and was shocked, most of the people didn't dare to squeak and waited to see what happened. There are also more than a dozen people who are either good friends with Shangguan Mingran on weekdays, or who are heartfelt to Shangguan Mingfeng and know her intentions well, and walked out to protect Shangguan Jingran's side.

One of them is Shangguan Mingfeng's henchman Yuluo's mother-in-law.

Lu Manxue didn't expect that even the respected mother-in-law Yuluo was on the side of Shangguan's shock, and she was furious and said hatefully: "Mother-in-law Yuluo, I, Lu Manxue, respect you as an elder, but you are against me everywhere, you are a good elder!" ”

Mother-in-law Yuluo slammed the dragon head crutch in her hand on the ground and said, "Lu Manxue, the old woman follows the palace master every day, don't I understand the palace master's thoughts?" The palace master is bent on spreading the news that it is definitely not you Lu Manxue. It's not that I'm shocked to be the head, there are many disciples with benevolent hearts and chivalrous bones in the house in the candle shadow shake red, and it's not your turn to be a vicious little demon girl! ”

"Good, good, good!" Lu Manxue said three "good" words in a row, and after speaking, her color suddenly changed, and she took out the green Shen Sword of the Treasure of the Town Palace with a candle shadow shaking red from the altar, performed light skills, and stabbed straight at Yuluo's mother-in-law. Yuluo's mother-in-law didn't expect her to suddenly hurt people with her sword, so she was taken aback, and hurriedly lifted the dragon's head cane to meet her.

Who knew that Lu Manxue's sword was halfway stabbed, and suddenly turned around, and turned to stab Shangguan in shock.

Lu Manxue started early, was scheming, and was extremely attentive to practice, so her martial arts far surpassed those of her fellow brothers and sisters. In addition, the Green Shen Sword is an ancient sword, sharpened like clay, extremely sharp, allowing Lu Manxue's martial arts to be brought into full play.

Shangguan was shocked that he likes to play on weekdays, and his martial arts are not as good as Lu Manxue. When she saw the blade stabbing at her, she panicked. Seeing that he couldn't hide from it, he closed his eyes and waited for death.

Lu Manxue's sword was about to pierce Shangguan Jing's chest, and at this moment-

With a "snap", the sword in her hand suddenly fell to the ground. Her arms, as if suddenly they had lost their strength, fell heavily. She was unsteady on her feet, stumbling and falling to the ground. This sudden change, don't say it's someone else, it's Lu Manxue herself, and she doesn't know what happened.

Fang Cai, seeing that she was about to succeed, and she would be able to get rid of Shangguan Shocking immediately, but she felt as if something had touched the sword of the Green Shen Sword, and the whole sword fell to the ground, and her own tiger's mouth was also shaken and numb. Her face suddenly became three points whiter than the snow in the mountains: what happened? Could it be that the master has manifested his spirit? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look around in horror.
