Chapter 40 Incomprehensible Customs
In Yuyuan Mansion in the north of Huyue Prefecture, in the exquisite study room on the second floor of a reading courtyard in the south, a middle-aged man with a white face and a long beard sat upright reading a book, and someone outside the door said: "Master Jingtang, Liu Qi asks to see." β
The white-faced, long-bearded man put down the scroll in his book and said, "Let him come up." β
Without hearing the sound of footsteps on the stairs, a tall and thin man appeared in front of the door and bowed to the white-faced man with a long beard: "See the master of Jing Hall under the willows." β
The middle-aged man known as the Jing Hall Master had a serious expression and said, "Come in and talk." β
Liu Qi walked into the study, stood in front of the Jing Hall Master's desk, bent down and whispered: "Hall Master, the fourth elder of the Yue family and the second miss of the Yue family are about to enter the state city, Meng Qingchen is dead." β
The Jing Hall Master raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Why did Meng Qingchen die, and he didn't let him make a move!"
Liu Qidao: "The thirteen people we sent and Meng Qingchen are all dead, so what happened is still unclear, and only Yue Xiangzhi and Yue Zi are left in the Yuefu convoy, as well as two guards, and the rest are also dead." β
The Jing Hall Master's eyebrows couldn't help but move, and he said for a while: "Find a way to find out what happened from those two guards, how could Meng Qingchen die?"
After Liu Qi withdrew, the Jing Hall Master called another person and asked, "Isn't there any news from Jing Chu yet?"
The man said, "I sent a message back a few years ago, saying that the sender had been found, and I would be able toβ"
"I know that. Lord Jing interrupted the man's words: "It's May now, and there has been no news?"
The man replied, "Yes." β
The master of Jing Hall was silent, and said for a while: "Send a few people to investigate in the area of Fuliang Mountain and Zixia Mountain to see if there is any accident in Jing Chu? β
After the man withdrew, the study was quiet, the master of Jing Hall looked at a map of Tiger Leaping Prefecture on the wall, frowned, and things were frustrated one after another, with Jing Chu's skills in the seventh layer of Tianchong Realm, there was no news for half a year, could it be that the letter turned out to be a trap, a trap set by Yu Yichen, no wonder the vine green wolf sent by the Heart Demon Sect to intercept and kill Yu Yichen has not been heard from so far!
Thinking like this, the Jing Hall Master broke out in a cold sweat.
The master of Jing Hall, whose name is Jing Zhongtian, is the hall master of Longmen Hall, the largest hall in Yuyuan Mansion, and is a great master who has condensed into the tenth layer of heavenly souls, and is second only to the lord of Beigong in Yuyuan Mansion in terms of strength and status, and since last year, Beigong Huang has condensed the soul pill and has deviated, and he has been in retreat so far, I don't know whether the situation is good or bad, Jing Zhongtian wants to replace Beigong Dark.
Jing Zhongtian looked at the map on the wall and thought for a long time, and finally made up his mind.
......
Before noon, Xie Danzhu took the little fox Lan'er to follow the Yuefu convoy into the city of Huyuezhou, which has a population of one million and is the largest city in the southeast of Dayuan Kingdom.
Yuefu is one of the few wealthy households in Tiger Leap Prefecture, and the mansion occupies a whole street, if it was before, the convoy that traveled far away returned, it was very joyful, but Yue Xiangzhi obviously did not have the slightest joy when he came back this time, more than 50 people died in Yuefu's coachman, healthy servants, and guards, and these people's funeral pensions were a huge amount of money, of course, these are nothing to the Yue clan on the rich side, the problem is that now I can't figure out who is going to deal with them Yue clan, why did Li Qingchen, who is an elite disciple of the Golden Sword Sect, go undercover and defect?
Yue Xiangda, the head of the Yue family, greeted the fourth brother and his beloved daughter in front of the mansion, he had learned the news in advance, it was a disciple surnamed Xie from Qixia Mountain who saved his fourth brother and tilting, so when he saw the fourth brother Yue Xiangzhi accompanying the young man with hearty eyebrows, he immediately hurried up to greet him, and asked, "This is Senior Brother Xie?"
Yue Xiangzhi hurriedly introduced, welcomed Xie Danzhu into the main hall of the mansion and sat down, Xie Danzhu was not used to such formal occasions, so he didn't talk much, the more Xiang Da was understanding, and immediately ordered the steward to lead Xie Danzhu's brothers and sisters to the guest house to rest, and he discussed with the fourth brother.
After Xie Danzhu bathed and cleaned, the servants brought wine and food, as well as two baskets of spiritual fruits, one cherry and the other fragrant pear, which should have been prepared by Yue Zitian to the servants.
Xie Danzhu used lunch to help Xiaohu Lan'er peel fragrant pears with a mang's knife, Xiaohu Lan'er sat on the side and ate cherries, at this time Yue Zitian came over, and did not bring a maid, this girl changed into a set of light blue dresses, beautiful and graceful, in her own home, she looked much calmer, and asked with a smile: "Senior Brother Xie said that there is something to tell me to do in Huyue Prefecture, I don't know what is going on?"
Xie Danzhu handed a peeled fragrant pear to Xiaohu Lan'er, and said with a smile: "Miss Yue Er said that she was laughing, how dare I say that I want you to help." β
Yue Zitian smiled: "Well, Senior Brother Xie, please speak." β
Xie Danzhu hesitated and said, "I want to ask Miss Yue Er to help me introduce Beigong Ziyan, I have something to look for her." β
Yue Zi was stunned, and then she felt very uncomfortable, she had a good impression of this young man who saved her life, but this Xie Danzhu obviously didn't take her to heart, and she opened her mouth to see Beigong Ziyan, well, Beigong Ziyan is a famous beauty in Tiger Leap Prefecture, and she Yue Zitian is naturally incomparable-
Xie Danzhu saw that Yue Zi didn't answer, he still didn't understand the amorous feelings, he didn't understand the girl's thoughts, and asked, "What, isn't it convenient?"
Yue Zi said with a strong smile: "How come, I have to help Master Xie do whatever Senior Brother Xie ordered, there should be news tomorrow." Then he took his leave and went out.
Xie Danzhu also felt that Yue Zitian suddenly became a little cold, inexplicable, and asked Xiaohu Lan'er: "Lan'er, did my brother say something wrong, why is Miss Yue Er suddenly a little unhappy?"
Xiaohu Lan'er only cared about eating fragrant pears, and her two little hands were pear juice, and when Xie Danzhu found a wet cloth to wipe her hands, she saw that her hands were clean, without any moisture of pear juice, and her little skirt was also snow-white and clean.
The little fox Lan'er can always be clean, and sometimes it is spotless in the blink of an eye when it is dirty, which makes Xie Danzhu very envious, Lan'er's realm is high.
In the evening, Yue Zitian sent a maid to report, saying that Beigong Ziyan was not in the city, and she had gone to visit her father outside the city, and she would not be able to come back until three days later, so she asked Xie Danzhu to wait patiently.
At night, the more Xiangda and Yue Xiangzhi brothers invited Xie Danzhu brothers and sisters to a banquet, and during the banquet, it was said that Liu Donghai, the deputy master of the Golden Sword Gate, wanted to see Xie Danzhu, but Xie Danzhu said: "I don't see outsiders, please ask Mr. Yue to refuse on my behalf." β
Yue Xiangda and Yue Xiangzhi The two brothers looked at each other, smiling bitterly, Liu Donghai, the deputy master of the Golden Sword Gate, is a master of the ninth layer of the Earth Spirit Realm, and they are all extremely powerful figures in Tiger Leap Prefecture, such a famous person wants to see Xie Danzhu, Xie Danzhu actually said that he can't see it, which makes him very embarrassed for the brothers, although the Yue clan is rich, but if it is not sheltered under a big sect, it will be difficult to survive, the Golden Sword Gate is the backer of the Yue clan, this time the elite disciple of the Golden Sword Gate Meng Qingchen suddenly rebelled and died inexplicably, Liu Donghai naturally wanted to find out.
