Chapter 214: Two Birds with One Stone
Xuanyuan Ye had already been recognized, so he had to go to the City Lord's Mansion first.
After the carriage left, Uncle Qian came up and whispered in her ear.
"Yang Ye has woken up, we didn't let him go, what does Madam want to do?"
"Let it go."
Shangguan Li waved his hand, he didn't want to expose the fact that she was in Baifu when he didn't let Yang Zhu out, but now that the matter is over, there is no point in hiding her identity.
Uncle Qian said "yes" and turned around to do things again.
I didn't ask why, and I didn't inquire about why Xuanyuan didn't come back, and I was still doing things neatly.
Shangguan Li wants to dig Uncle Qian back to her as a housekeeper.
That's right. When she returns to the capital this time, she will almost be able to move out of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Her original goal has been achieved, Shangguan Yue can't threaten her for the time being, and Zhang Yuanniang's status in front of Shangguan Xun has plummeted.
At that time, she will have to put herself in a quiet hall, and when the group is on vacation, she will go out and relax together.
At that time, there will be a great need for someone like Uncle Qian to help take care of it, but unfortunately, the person who can get Shen Baiyu's trust so much should not have a low status, and it is unlikely that he will be poached by her.
Shangguan Li went back to his room, and the subordinates had already prepared the hot water intimately.
She casually took off the clothes on her body, and there were basically no serious injuries, but there were a lot of various abrasions and bruises. I didn't think I saw it, but now it hurts so much that her hairs stand on end.
She quickly took care of herself, and when she reached for her clothes, she drew a flower out of the sleeve of her old clothes.
The whole body is pure white, with only a little black in the center of the stamen.
Twin flowers.
If Xuanyuan's people hadn't arrived in time at that time, she would have used this. The pollen with the Yin-Yang Diagram Gu worms has already spread, as long as the two flowers appear and the fragrance of the flowers spreads, they can survive.
But one flower can only save five people at most, that is, more than a thousand people on that mountain, only five can survive.
Even if Shangguan Li thinks that he is like a murderer, but so many people's lives, it is not said that he can do it.
Xuanyuan's Zhenbei Army......
"Huh?"
Her hand grabbing her clothes suddenly froze.
When she was still in the Crystal Palace, the reason why she proposed to leave there and walk out of the cave was because she knew that even if Xuanyuan Ye's subordinates descended the mountain first, they would definitely be waiting nearby.
Not to mention anything else, Shaguang is absolutely loyal to Xuanyuan Night, and it is impossible for him to leave without confirming Xuanyuan Night's safety.
But when they confronted the people of Nameless Village, Shaoguang and the others did not appear.
In addition, a large army of 1,000 people walked in the mountains, why didn't the people of the nameless village notice it in advance?
They are the people of the mountains, who have lived here for hundreds of years.
Did they carelessly not set up a sentry, or was it because who quietly removed their outposts?
Shangguan Li didn't feel an inch, and felt a burst of cold air rising from the soles of his feet.
Could it be that all this is a game of killing two birds with one stone in Xuanyuan Night? He used the hand of Lihuo to get rid of the people of the nameless village, and personally sent someone to pull out the thorn of Lihuo.
Thinking of his unusual silence after coming out of the Crystal Palace, Shangguan Li felt that this possibility could not be ruled out.
"Really, a man who does it step by step."
She was stunned for a long time, and at the end, she sighed and spat out such a sentence.
On the same day, Xuanyuan Night did not reappear. The city of Linyang is calm, and the only thing that can be talked about by everyone is that the head of the wealthy businessman Liu family doesn't know what happened, and he wants to leave Linyang with his family after returning home in a hurry.
As a result, he was stopped at the gate of the city, and when he heard about it, the face of this usually high-spirited rich merchant was extremely wonderful.
It wasn't until the next morning that Bai Fu calculated a little movement.
Jingliu died and committed suicide by cutting his wrists.
When I left, my expression was unusually stable, and there was only one line written on the table next to me, take me to them.
Shangguan Li was not surprised. In her opinion, Kagami Liukong is a person who is forced to take on the responsibility of lifting the nine-fold lock for the villagers.
Because he took the holy medicine, because he survived. So every step of the way is involuntary.
He was really not a qualified conspirator, and Shangguan Li knew that this person was holding things in his heart almost from the first time he saw him. He knew it himself, so he never considered himself the village chief.
But no matter how unqualified, he also did it for everyone who died. The world is complicated, and the next time he comes again, there will probably be a little girl with a cold expression next to him, catching a snake and playing with him by the window.
But at that time, he was in good health, and the biggest trouble as far as the eye could see was only the whipping of his father.
Shangguan Li found a carriage and took him back to Nameless Village with Xitu.
The last time they visited, it was deserted, but it was still crowded. The only smoke now is probably the ash of incense in the morning breeze in the cemetery.
Shangguan Li squinted his eyes, the cemetery was just in front of the vacant hut they had come to for the first time, the peach trees were half withered, and there were vegetables at the mouth of the well.
There were many stone monuments in the cemetery, and a man stood in front of the cemetery, with a long body and a back like an unbending blade. Even if it was just a back, she still recognized Xuanyuan Ye at a glance.
"Huh? Isn't that the king? ”
Situ also saw it, and of course she recognized it immediately.
Shangguan Li almost forgot that this little girl can still look at bones.
This movement was enough for Xuanyuan Ye to notice them, and he turned sideways, his eyes dark as thick ink. It's like the eyes of the eagle on the Snow Eagle Banner.
"Yo, isn't this the county lord and Xiao Tu'er?"
Recognizing the person, he changed his face in a second and smiled.
"How did you come here?"
"Send someone to the cemetery."
Shangguan Li was too lazy to look at the layers of skin on his face that were difficult to distinguish between real and fake, and pointed to the wooden box road that Xitu was dragging behind.
Xuanyuan Ye was stunned for a moment, and then reacted.
"Mirror Stream?"
"Hmm."
She walked to the front of the cemetery and looked around.
"Shelan's words, here."
Xuanyuan Ye pointed to a stone tablet in front of him.
"Thank you."
Shangguan Li took out a shovel and greeted Xitu.
"Can you be more positive? I'm going back to dinner. ”
Situxin said that if I am active in digging graves, then there is a real problem. But she didn't dare to say this, I don't know if it's a delusion.
She always felt that the atmosphere between the fairy sister and the prince was a little weird.
"I'll help you ......"
"No, you don't."
Shangguan Li turned sideways and dodged Xuanyuan Ye's hand that wanted to come to get the shovel, and smiled.
"How can this kind of thing trouble the prince, you are standing here early in the morning and blowing the wind without fear of freezing your body, go back quickly."
Xuanyuan said strangely.
"Am I messing with the county lord again?"
"Nope."
Shangguan Li told the truth.
"It's just kind of getting in the way."
