Chapter 171: Sword Qi Condenses into Frost
As soon as he was reminded by Youwen, the thief monkey, Ye Qinglin suddenly reacted, Qingran's death was not the hand of the people in the house, but the people who had been secretly staring at him.
What worries him still appears.
Ye Qinglin didn't speak, walked out of the main courtyard, went to the front yard, walked slowly back and forth in the courtyard for a long time with his hands behind his back, seemed to be pondering, and then paced into the hall, re-entered the study, and closed the door.
Du Jian and You Wen stopped when they followed to the courtyard of the front yard, crowded each other and hid in the dark part of the eaves, and did not dare to speak, not knowing what their master was planning, according to their understanding of Ye Qinglin, it was estimated that they would come out soon, and then tell them to do things.
A few people waited outside for a long time, and they didn't see Ye Qinglin come out, which seemed to be a little abnormal.
"You say, the eldest prince won't fall asleep in the study, right?" You Wen asked in a low voice with round eyes.
"Do you think the eldest prince can sleep like this?" Junshan retorted to him.
"I said that I didn't kill Laifu, or someone killed him, but at that time, I didn't have a clue, and now it's okay, that woman was also killed, but it can be regarded as innocent."
"Dead people, you still applaud, what kind of people!" Jun Shan glanced at Youwen.
"Don't talk, come out!" Du Jian shouted at the top of his voice.
Sure enough, I heard the sound of the door opening, and then a white dress appeared at the door of the hall, the light behind his back was too dim to see Ye Qinglin's face clearly, but it was not a sudden shout, and he could obviously hear the cold: "Du Jian!" ”
"Yes, yes! The eldest son, the subordinates are here! Du Jian hurriedly ran out of the shadows.
Youwen and Junshan also followed.
"Go! Bring someone to bring the second son back to me! Ye Qinglin's cold voice.
Bringing someone? Go please?
Du Jian understood! quickly shouted people out of the house.
Youwen continued to have round eyes, only Junshan looked confused.
But in the blink of an eye, Du Jian actually came back, according to the calculation of the hour, Du Jian has grown wings, and he has not yet flown to the county guard's mansion.
Youwen was about to step forward and ask if anyone didn't bring enough, when his round eyes saw Ziyu outside the door and a group of people in black.
Ziyu came by herself!
The group of black-clothed people were left outside the mansion gate, and Ziyu entered the front yard alone behind Du Jian.
Ye Qinglin turned around and entered the hall, and when he saw the people who came in from the door, he walked out again,
He had two swords in his hands.
Ye Qinglin slowly walked down the stone steps, Du Jian saw the murderous aura of his body, and immediately waved his hand to let his subordinates disperse, leaving Ziyu alone in the middle of the courtyard.
About ten steps away from Ziyu, Ye Qinglin stopped, flicked his right hand outward, and threw a sword towards Ziyu.
Ziyu had just picked it up when he heard Ye Qinglin's sword drawn.
Du Jian and the guards around him did not dare to approach without Ye Qinglin's order, and Youwen and Junshan had already hidden behind the pillars.
They thought that the second son would definitely be picked out of the mansion by the eldest son's sword, but they didn't want to, but the next moment, it was the second son who drew the sword and jumped up first.
With only ten steps away, Ziyu instantly jumped in front of Ye Qinglin, swung his sword and slashed down, and Ye Qinglin blocked with his sword on the spot.
At this moment, it was not Du Jian and Youwen who were stunned, but Hua Weeping, who heard Tianyue running from the house to the front yard in a hurry, hiding under the tree and covering her mouth and not daring to cry.
She couldn't believe it.
That Zi Yu, who is noble and elegant, gentle as water, and always has a warm smile on his face, actually has such a profound martial arts!
In the middle of the courtyard, two swords collided with each other, and the "ding" sound was like slashing on her body and in her bone marrow.
She has been with Ziyu for a long time, but she has never seen Ziyu hold a sword, she has always thought that Ziyu's hands are used to hold a pen!
Trying to recall it, it doesn't seem to be without warning.
That year, when she knew that Ziyu was Ye Hanlin, she secretly mixed into Tai'an Academy, squatted in the green bushes behind the pavilion, and listened to Ziyu and a few classmates chatting.
The six arts of a gentleman, including martial arts!
At that time, I didn't think about it.
Maybe she has always put her heart on Ye Qinglin and hasn't learned too much about Ziyu.
However, at this moment, Ziyu and Ye Qinglin were fighting with their swords.
She didn't want to see this picture, and she didn't have the power to stop it, although she didn't know how deep the grudge between their brothers was, but she knew that those two people, if they didn't lie down, they didn't want to stop.
She was distressed, she was afraid.
"If you dare to keep your hand, you will regret it!" Ye Qinglin's voice, his sword slashed towards Ziyu's body.
"Don't worry, big brother, I won't keep my hand, don't hesitate!" Ziyu swung his sword to meet him.
Sparks splashed everywhere, and both of them swung their swords with great force, and they were bounced away in an instant.
Before Ziyu could stand firm, Ye Qinglin landed on the ground with one foot, turned over, and stabbed straight ahead, Ziyu didn't have time to block, only turned his body to one side, dodging Ye Qinglin's sword stabbed in front of his chest, but cut through the wide sleeves on his arms, and on the sleeves with blue stripes on a white background, a touch of dark red seeped out.
Zi Yu didn't care about the scratches on the wall of his left hand, he raised the sword flat on his chest with his right hand, his eyes did not leave Ye Qinglin, others couldn't see his steps clearly, but in the blink of an eye, Zi Yu appeared behind Ye Qinglin, before the sword arrived, Sen Han's sword qi had already pierced the cold wind and slashed at Ye Qinglin's back.
Ye Qinglin didn't have time to turn around and parry, so he simply raised his sword with his backhand and opened Ziyu's sword, and then turned around, with the murderous intent on his face, everyone in the cold courtyard shuddered.
The swords of the two came together again.
"You did it!" Ye Qinglin's voice.
"It's me!" Ziyu replied.
After a question and answer, it bounced off again, and after being hit hard, both feet scratched the ground and both retreated, and the two were several feet away.
Ye Qinglin quickly jumped up again, and as the dead leaves in the courtyard fell to Zi Yu, Zi Yu flipped upside down in the air, and the sword qi suddenly swung out countless sword shadows, spilling towards Ye Qinglin who was coming straight towards him, such a fast and dense sword shadow, no matter how much he dodged, it was difficult to dodge.
With a "ding" sound, Ye Qinglin actually accurately found Ziyu's flaws in the countless sword shadows, and unexpectedly bumped into the sword blade and collided together.
"I haven't killed you for so many years, but you have been plotting against me behind my back, everyone thinks you are a gentleman, only I know that you are not!" Ye Qinglin's voice came out again, as if he was panting.
"You have bullied my mother for so many years, what is wrong with me protecting my mother!" Ziyu's voice was also panting with coldness.
Both of them had frost on their faces, and they knew in their hearts that tonight would be a bleak night.
"You killed Qingran!"
"Yes!"
"You killed Laifu, you are the master behind him!"
"Yes!"
"The man in black who assassinated me at night outside the imperial capital a year ago was your man!"
"Yes!"
Ye Qinglin clenched Jian Bing with both hands, and with a strong push, the two separated and took a few steps back.
Immediately, a cold light went straight to Ziyu's throat, and the sword peak flew away, and the sound of breaking the wind rose, and the compelling sword qi urged the dead leaves on the trees not far away to fall.
Zi Yu's right arm shook in the wind, swept past the sword qi Feihong, and at the moment when he blocked Ye Qinglin's sword blade, both of them were numb with shock, Zi Yu felt Ye Qinglin's anger, but he was not afraid at all, and immediately counterattacked Ye Qinglin, the power of the sword collided with the sword body that Ye Qinglin slashed from, and the sound was loud enough to dissipate the hearts of others.
"Father tricked my wife Yin'er to help you in your official career, this is your attention!"
"Yes!"
"Du Jian, archers prepare!" Ye Qinglin's anger completely flew up.
The two of them were surrounded by the people under Du Jian's hands, holding crossbows in their hands, and just waiting for Ye Qinglin's order, they fired ten thousand arrows at Ziyu.
However, Ziyu did not have the slightest fear on his face at this moment.
Because on the wall of the front yard, there were dozens of black shadows standing, also holding crossbows in their hands, and those were the black-clothed people brought by Ziyu.
Du Jian saw that the situation was not good, and immediately led a team of people to the roof, holding two things in his hands, a bamboo tube in his right hand and a fire fold in his left hand.
If those black shadows on the wall dare to shoot crossbows, Du Jian's people will throw firearms there!
It seems that no one can please anyone, and the two sides begin to confront each other!
The silent crying of the slow flower, seeing this scene, has already fallen under the tree.
At this time, it seemed that playing with the sword again would be like a child's play, he didn't want to kill Ziyu, but he only heard Ziyu admit that he had united with Ye Yanqing to deceive Yin'er into abandoning her husband and son, so he made the decision to go to war.
Qingran was killed by Ziyu, if it is said that Laifu and Qingran are both dead, it is inexplicable, but as long as the deaths of the two are linked, it will be easy to unravel.
Ziyu is smart, talented and learned, not only has the six arts of a gentleman, but he can also make his own secret weapons.
His secret weapon is so dark that if he doesn't try to look at it, he won't think it's a murderous thing, that thing is just a homemade small bamboo thorn, thin and short, like the tip of an embroidery needle, but only one and a half minutes long, repeatedly soaked in the potion and then dried, and then installed in the mechanism of the imitation arm crossbow, buckled on the wrist, a few steps away can shoot to the target, in case of blood, it will flow along the blood in the body, straight into the viscera, stuck in the viscera, the person who was shot died of cardiac arrest.
Laifu deceived Youwen in the Kawaguchi Post Station to go outside the city to worship his deceased mother, that is, he knew that the Chuankou Post Station would pass by the county government when he went out of the city to the river, and after a short time at the gate of the county office, Laifu made a code that only they could understand, so he thought about waiting for Ziyu to save him, but after Ziyu sent someone out of the city, he did not go to save Laifu, but waited in the dark for Laifu who was going to get into the carriage after burning the paper, and shot bamboo thorns at him the moment he passed by.
The bamboo thorn needs to flow into the subtle blood meridians in the viscera to be stuck and not moving, or slow down the flow, and the medicinal properties on it can start to corrode when the blood heats up, so after Laifu was taken into the carriage by Youwen, he was like no one else, just like Qingran, he met Ye Qinglin and Ziyu in the garden After chatting, the moment Ziyu glanced at the quilt, Ziyu gave her one, but she thought that she was just bitten by mosquitoes and could walk back to her residence.
How these complex secret weapons killed two people, Ye Qinglin didn't know, he just knew that Qingran had only met him and Ziyu in the garden, and then died on her own bed with just a stick of incense.
Thinking about it carefully, Ziyu did not use the secret weapon to kill Laifu and Qingran to assassinate Ye Qinglin, but chose to let Laifu trick him into going to the imperial capital, wanting to kill him with Xue Jinwu's hand, probably because the secret weapon is too dangerous and may hurt himself, and he can't use it as he wants, for fear that if he doesn't succeed once, he will be exposed.
He didn't need to care about how Ziyu killed people at all, as long as he knew that it was him.
Ye Qinglin threw the sword on the ground, turned around and came to the stone steps, sat there, stared at Zi Yu who was still standing in the middle of the courtyard and said, "You killed Laifu to kill the mouth, but why did you kill Qingran?!" ”
"That woman wants to hurt Yin'er, naturally I won't let her live!" Ziyu came prepared, originally to defend herself, but seeing Yin'er's fear of Qingran, she used it on Qingran without thinking about it.
