Silence was like an unsettling factor, clogging everyone's throats, and for a few minutes no one spoke, no one was there. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

I don't know how long it took, when this uneasiness almost solidified, I heard Ye Shengtian speak: "I heard that King Cang does things without leakage, and this time it can be regarded as a lesson." ”

He also knew that the chance of wanting to reflexively strike was very small, and even if he could save Niu Jin, it would be difficult.

Yue Wuxian sighed slightly: "Yes, King Cang does things, and he does not leak at all, and he was born back then-" As he spoke, he couldn't help but shake his head.

Yue Qisheng's death was like a sharp thorn stuck in his throat, if it weren't for Yue Qisheng's sudden death, his Yue family would never have fallen into such a situation. Although the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, it was only compared to the horse, and what Yue Wuxian really cared about was those lions that stood tall above.

King Cang, Lu Boxian, and Lu Jingzong hidden behind the crowd.

Ye Shengtian glanced at Yue Wuxian and sighed: "The matter has come to this, I won't hide our intentions, I heard that the ancestor of the Yue family once designed the entire Canglan City, I need the design drawings of the Canglan City Cangwang Mansion." ”

Yue Wuji's slightly closed eyes opened suddenly, and two cold lights shot out of his eyes.

"Who did you listen to this?"

"Isn't it?" Ye Shengtian sneered, "This kind of thing can't be hidden from someone with a heart." ”

Yue Wuxian didn't admit it, didn't deny it, and didn't even express any opinion on it, maybe he felt that there was no need to express an opinion at all, just like what Ye Shengtian said, this kind of thing can't be hidden from someone with a heart.

After a while, Yue Wuxian smiled and said, "I have the drawings, but why should I give them to you." ”

In a word, it shows the strength of the great elder of the Yue family, the Yue family can decline, but it will never lose its dignity, let alone become a pawn in the hands of some strength.

Based on his experience, of course, he could see that the matter at this moment was not actually about Ye Shengtian's business, but just a struggle between Lu Boxian and King Cang.

King Cang made a move, Lu Boxian did not respond, but waited, waiting for more people to enter the game, and this first entrant was Ye Shengtian in front of him, even if he tried his best to reject, he even took the initiative to resign from the position of Yunying Marshal for this reason, but he still couldn't escape the whirlpool.

If it was a few decades ago, when the Yue family was at its peak, Yue Wuxian might not hesitate to join it, relying on the power of the Yue family to stir up some movement, but now, the Yue family is already weak, and he can't withstand any big storms, although he Yue Wuxian has never been arrogant, but he will not be blindly arrogant, he knows very well what the situation he is going to face.

It can be said that the farther away from that whirlpool, the safer the Yue family is, don't you see that even if Lu Boxian ordered the Yue family to lead the murder of Yue Qisheng, wouldn't the Yue family have made any big moves?

Therefore, Yue Wuxian almost did not intend to enter this whirlpool, although it was not that he did not want to hand over the drawings to Ye Shengtian, but he must not hand them over for no reason, there must be a reasonable reason that he could not refuse.

Gu Ruzhi is this reason.

Daddy Gu is not a stupid person, as soon as he saw Yue Wuji's eyes, he knew that it was his own appearance. Before they came, they had already expected that Yue Wuxian would not hand over the drawings so easily, so they had already thought of their rhetoric.

"Elder Yue, the Ming people don't say secret words, this matter is something that Gu Ruzhi asked you to take out the drawings. ”

Yue Wuxian's eyes narrowed into a narrow slit, and two glimmers of light shimmered through the gap.

"If it were someone else, I would definitely not give it, but if you Gu Ruzhi, I can give it to you, because this is what the Yue family owes you. ”

Father Gu was slightly stunned, revealing a bitter smile.

"That's right, it's your Yue family who owes me, as long as you give me the drawings of the Cangwang Mansion, then from now on, the Yue family will not owe me anything, and the thirty years of grievances will be written off. ”

"Okay!" Yue Wuxian was waiting for this sentence, compared to other things, the last thing that the Yue family was willing to owe was human favors.

If one is not handled well, I am afraid that it will be difficult to pay it off in the rest of his life, but he cannot but repay the favor, especially for a family like the Yue family.

Yue Wuxian was very aware of this, so he took this opportunity to settle the grievances with Father Gu.

"Come on!!" he shouted.

After a while, a small guy sent a red brocade box, the surface is carved, and the production is exquisite, so that people can see its preciousness at a glance.

But this is just a box, no matter how expensive the box is, it is just a utensil used to hold things, compared to the box, the real value is the contents of the box.

Yue Wuxian opened the brocade box in front of the two of them, and a roll of old sheepskin lay quietly in the box.

The Yue family is like this, but all important drawings will be written in sheepskin, after special treatment, can be preserved for many years, only those that do not need to be saved, or unimportant things will be written on paper, paper is more convenient to write than sheepskin, the cost is also lower, but if it is preserved, at most it is only a hundred years.

Sheepskin, on the other hand, will not decay even after a thousand years of special treatment.

Just like the sheepskin lying in this brocade box, Canglan City has existed for hundreds of years, and this sheepskin has also existed for hundreds of years, compared to its appearance back then, it just looks a little old.

Yue Wuxian didn't open the parchment roll, but handed him over directly to Father Gu.

"This is the drawing you want, to this day, there may be some differences between the drawing and the real thing, but I can assure you that this is the drawing kept by my father-in-law's family. ”

Gu Ruzhi held the sheepskin in his hand and did not open it. Since Yue Wuxian said so in his heart, it is absolutely impossible to be wrong, if he says that he is wrong, it can only be a change in the landscape, and what he cares about is not the buildings on the ground, but the underground.

It is a criss-crossing underground palace hidden deep under the Cangwang Mansion, and it is a thing that cannot change in any way because of time.

"That's it, thank you. Gu Ruzhi said.

He was a little unwilling, a little unwilling, and a little bitter that he had been suffering for thirty years to change to this sheepskin, but he was willing, willing, and happy to change to this drawing.

At least, Han Chuang wouldn't take a risk just because he didn't have the drawings.

Yue Wuxian sighed and said: "Old man Gu, let me remind you, even if there are drawings, the underground palace of the Cangwang Mansion is not a good place to enter, there are many organs inside, and there are many dangers, and if you are not careful, you may be doomed."

"I know," Daddy Gu smiled, "I'm not the one who is taking the risk anyway." ”

Yue Wuxian pursed his lips and thought in his heart, "It's because it's not you that I'm worried." But he said, "Then you tell Han Chuang and let him be careful." ”

"I know. Daddy Gu smiled.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Gu Ruzhi and Ye Shengtian said goodbye, and when they walked out of the Yue family's mansion, Ye Shengtian couldn't help but sigh: "If it is really the first family of Canglan Mansion, this kind of background is by no means comparable to Lu Boxian and Cangwang, I'm afraid they can't imagine that there are still drawings of their house in the Yue family." ”

"Yes," Gu Ruzhi sighed, "I'm afraid they can't imagine that they are always in danger." ”

Don't underestimate this drawing, such as the drawing of the Imperial Palace, there will be many hidden roads, and even Lu Jingzong may not know all of these secret passages, let alone Lu Boxian.

With these things, all you need is an elite army to go straight to the palace and control the emperor. Although the drawings of the Cangwang Mansion are not so exaggerated, there is not much difference, if Lu Boxian gets this drawing, he will definitely directly send troops to take the Cangwang Mansion with a thunderous force.

Of course, neither Gu Ruzhi nor Ye Shengtian was going to let this drawing be interviewed, all they needed was a location in the drawings, a place hidden deep underground and isolated from the world.

Lu Jingzong glanced at the sky, it was dim.

The moon seemed to be hiding in the clouds again.

"Okay, the time is gone, Han Chuang's kid should go back, I'm afraid he will return in vain this time, if we don't bring back a little something, he will definitely go crazy." ”

"That's right. ”

Thinking that Han Chuang might go crazy for this kind of thing, Father Gu couldn't help laughing, "This makes this kid do things in a hurry and has no plan, if he can calm down and listen to us, maybe he won't have to bother a lot." ”

Ye Shengtian nodded and agreed: "Who said it wasn't? This guy just doesn't make people worry." ”

"When did he let us worry?" Father Gu laughed, "But it is precisely because he never let us worry that he will do many unexpected things." ”

"But no one knows if those things are good or bad. Ye Shengtian answered: "I only hope that Niu Jin can be rescued safely and steadily this time, by the way, there is also the matter of Lu Jiang." ”

As soon as Lu Jiang was mentioned, Ye Shengtian hated itchy, you said that you are a third prince, why are you so lustful? Even if you are lustful, you will bully the head of the General's Mansion, even if you bully the General's Mansion, he can bear it, but he didn't expect to bully Gu Xi'er.

Not to mention Han Chuang, even Ye Shengtian himself couldn't help it, if it wasn't for Han Chuang's early move, he would probably have killed the Third Prince's Mansion.

Don't underestimate him, a great general who has no real power, if he really starts a fire, it is not something that a small heir to the throne can resist.

But now it's okay, I don't have to get angry, but I have a headache.

Of course he had a headache, because Lu Jiang died.

He couldn't wait to get angry before Han Chuang and kill the Third Prince's Mansion. Engulfed by his anger, Lu Jiang was beaten at most, and now he is fine, and he dies directly.

It's not enough to be dead, but he still leaves a mess for him Ye Shengtian to clean up, Ye Shengtian interrupted, the one sitting in the palace now must hate Han Chuang to the point that his teeth itch, but there is no way, he will not retaliate at all.

As an emperor who puts interests first, he will not take revenge on a mid-stage warrior of soul melting because of a dead son, let alone risk offending the great general and oppose the general's mansion.

But it is impossible to say that he does not have the slightest mustard in his heart.

After all—it was his son who died.

Father Gu was also silent, and after a long time, he spoke: "Is there really nothing wrong with Lu Boxian?"

Ye Shengtian smiled bitterly.

"It's okay, it's just not showing. ”

Hatred does not manifest itself does not mean that there is no hatred, but it is hidden in the heart, behind the heart.

One day in the future, it may only take a small trigger to erupt, and the outbreak at that time will be irresistible.

Ye Shengtian began to think about his own retreat.

"But don't worry, I understand Lu Boxian, although he has a lot of hatred for Han Chuang, but the two are now in a cooperative relationship after all, and the whole thing was provoked by his son, so I'm sure he won't have any excesses, at most-"

He pondered for a moment and said, "At most, I don't say anything about this matter." ”

"Don't make a statement?" Father Gu frowned, "No matter what, it doesn't matter how much he controls Yunying?"

Ye Shengtian smiled bitterly: "I have calculated that we can solve this matter, so I will not make any statement." ”

Father Gu was silent, and it took a long time before he spoke: "Sometimes, I really don't understand you people in the court. ”

Ye Shengtian laughed and said, "Sometimes I can't understand people like us, but there is no way, there is something you are in that position, you have to do this." Maybe Lu Boxian also hopes that he is just an ordinary person, he doesn't have to think too much, he can mention killing people in a fit of anger. ”

Imperial Palace, Taiqing Palace.

Lu Xiang'er had already left, but there was still a woman standing next to Lu Boxian.

Concubine Xu, or call her Xu Yu.

Concubine Xu represents her identity, and Xu Yu is the real her, a woman who is incredibly smart. Sometimes, Lu Boxian will feel sad, because there is no one in the Manchu Dynasty who reassures him, only Xu Yu, this pillow person will never harm him.

The reason is also simple, their interests are one.

Sometimes, things are so simple, common interests make each other close, differences of interests produce contradictions, and then fall apart, and the most intimate relationship will eventually fall apart one day, but at least now, Xu Mo and he are still grasshoppers tied to a rope, whether it is Xu Mo or himself, they will not betray each other, because betraying each other is equivalent to betraying themselves.

So when Xu Yu proposed to stand by and watch, Lu Boxian was not angry, but just pretended to be calm and asked, "Why do you want to stand by and watch." ”

"It's not the time for a head-on confrontation. Xu Yu replied like this.

This made Lu Boxian feel a tingling, not aimed at Xu Yu, but at himself. He thought he was in control of everything, but in the end he found that he was being played by Lu Jingzong and Lu Ping, which made it difficult for him, who had always been arrogant, to adapt.

"Just sit by and watch?"

Xu Yu shook her head, the flickering lights reflected her face, there was no coquettishness before, only calmness, and it could even be said to be cold.

Lu Boxian suddenly had a strange feeling, only thinking that if Xu Yu was not a woman, I am afraid that he would be more suitable to become the king of Canglan Kingdom.

"Establish Lu Xiang'er as the heir. Xu Yu suddenly spoke, but said something that made Lu Boxian dumbfounded.

"This is impossible!" he immediately retorted, "everything else can be negotiated, but this is the only one, which is absolutely non-negotiable." ”

Lu Boxian doesn't like Lu Xiang'er, because Lu Xiang'er's existence is completely a mistake, he and Lu Xiang'er's mother don't have any love at all, but they secretly married and gave birth to Lu Xiang'er.

He didn't want to admit this daughter, and he didn't even want her to continue to exist, if it weren't for the too much pressure on him from that woman and Lu Jingzong, he would have already made the "daughter" disappear.

This is not ruthlessness, but the imperial mind as he understands it.

Smile.

Xu Yu was smiling bitterly.

As Lu Boxian's pillow person, how could she not know Lu Xianger's identity is embarrassing, if you want to make her heir, you must recognize her identity, which is tantamount to a huge blow to Lu Boxian's already inglorious reputation.

Sometimes reputation isn't important, it's something for the people below, but sometimes it's important because it's a real person.

Lu Boxian is at a crucial moment in his reputation, and it can be said that once Lu Xianger's identity is recognized, it will be a heavy blow to him.

Therefore, he was unwilling, unwilling, unwilling, unyielding, trying to avoid this issue, trying to delay this issue, but at this particular time, he was brought up again by his own arguer, and the anger in his heart can be imagined.

Xu Yu smiled bitterly: "This is the only way I can think of, Lu Jingzong and Lu Ping have given you a game, but these two are in an antagonistic relationship, so we can use this antagonistic relationship between the two to make some articles." ”

"Then there is no need to recognize Lu Xiang'er's identity, let alone make her the heir. Lu Boxian said in a rare serious tone: "Other things are easy to discuss, but this matter is impossible." ”

He was determined, like a rock at the moment.

Xu Yu shook his head and said: "What is in front of you now is two cups of poison, one will die if you drink it, that is the Cangwang, as long as he controls the cloud camp, I am afraid that in a year at most, he will make some moves, when the time comes, do you think a Royal Forest Army can resist him?"

"He dare!" Lu Boxian glared at Xu Yu angrily, "I am the Son of Heaven, and I am orthodox!"

Xu Yu sighed and said, "King, it would be a big mistake for you to still have this kind of thinking at this time. She took a deep breath and said softly: "There is no so-called Son of Heaven at all, when my father passed the throne to you, but allowed King Cang to open the mansion, it is to let the two of you fight, let the two of you rob, whoever wins, whoever wins, who wins, who is the final victor, the last king, so there is no so-called orthodox unification theory at all." ”

Lu Boxian was silent, it wasn't that he couldn't see this, he just didn't want to admit it.

Xu Yu continued: "Father's cup is a cup of chronic/poison, and I feel that although it is a poison, it is better to say that it is a test for you. ”

"Test?" Lu Boxian sneered, "Isn't Manager I've tested enough, do you still need him to continue to test?"

Xu Yu restrained his smile and said solemnly: "Of course, the king has experienced many tests, but this is from your and my point of view; ”

Lu Boxian's anger was like a thunderbolt that had been accumulated for a long time, and finally broke through the clouds: "Xu Yu, you are bold!"

His eyes were staring at Xu Yu, and his lips trembled as if he was saying something.

Xu Yu knew what he wanted to say, she understood him, just like if he understood her, whenever someone committed a crime, he would not hesitate to ask someone to drag the person who committed the crime out and cut him down. It seems to be a little violent and a little lawless, but Xu Yu knows that he is maintaining his own little dignity.

She used to be just a cold bystander, but now she is the one who does the following.

The restless silence floated in the air, and after a long time, Lu Boxian finally spoke: "Xu Yu, aren't you afraid of death? ”

Xu Yu bit her lip and said in a deep voice: "Of course, it is easy for the king to kill the concubine, and the concubine also believes that the king has the courage, but this sentence still has to be said that the king should appoint Lu Xiang'er as the prince." ”

"Bastard!" Lu Boxian threw a piece of music on the platform, and glared at Xu Yu with angry eyes: "Xu Yu, how many heads do you have, do you know what you mean by saying this?"

"Of course I do. Xu Yu smiled: "But compared to my own life, I care more about the life of the king." ”

"You-"

In one sentence, Lu Boxian was speechless, he didn't know that Xu Mo was good to him, nor did he know that Xu Mo was good for him, but there were some things that were indeed unbearable for him, as if admitting Lu Xiang'er.

Whenever he saw Lu Xiang'er, he would think of that woman and how she resolutely left him. His heart was as bad as being cut by a knife.

Heavy breathing echoed in the Taiqing Palace, and the previous shouts had already alarmed the warriors outside the hall, and there was a noisy footstep at the door.

"Get out, get out, no one is allowed to come in without my order!" Lu Boxian roared.

Shi Shiran, the guard who had not yet entered the hall, walked away, walking cautiously, without causing any noise.

The hall returned to calm, but it was Lu Boxian's heart that was not calm, he looked at Xu Yu coldly, his face was cloudy.

Xu Yu didn't speak, let alone lowered her head as usual, she looked up at Lu Boxian, her eyes were full of silence.

Lu Boxian finally sighed and said slowly: "Xu Qi, Xu Qi, I don't know what to say about you, say that you are stupid, you are smart, you are smart, and you are acting so murderously now, what if I am carried away by anger?"

When Xu Yu heard this, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, she understood that her fate had been saved.

"The king, I will not be carried away by anger, in my heart, even if the king is angry, he will retain a trace of reason, and a trace of reason will let me save my life. ”

"So you are unscrupulous?" Lu Boxian once again took out the majesty of the emperor and stared at Xu Yu coldly.

Xu Yu smiled, just like the blooming peony in the imperial garden, which made all the famous flowers around it lose their luster.

"The king will tolerate my unscrupulousness, won't he?"

Lu Boxian didn't speak, but just looked at Xu Qi deeply, and after a long time, he finally spoke: "What else can I do except canonize Lu Xiang'er as the crown prince?" ”

"No more. ”

"Really?"

"For the sake of today's plan, the king can only have a glimmer of life if he unites with his father. ”

Lu Boxian sighed, if he said what he was most taboo about, it was his father, no one knew what Lu Jingzong was thinking in his heart, just like no one could have predicted that he would suddenly abdicate and pass the throne to Lu Boxian, just like no one could have expected him to pass the throne to Lu Boxian, but he still supported King Lu Ping to open the mansion, just like he suddenly appeared at this moment and appeared in front of everyone.

Lu Boxian was still hesitating, but he had to say that he had already wavered, and he had been shaken by Xu Yu's words.

"But, but didn't you say that my father would be impartial, why would he stand up and unite with me at this time? Isn't this against his principle?" Lu Boxian was in his own doubts.

If Lu Jingzong really wants to help him, King Cang has no possibility of victory at all, although King Cang controls the army, but don't underestimate Lu Jingzong's prestige in the army, even if he has made great achievements now, Ye Shengtian, who is in the middle of the day, may be less than one percent of Lu Jingzong's prestige in the army.

Lu Jingzong is the military god of Canglan Country, he is an invincible god, and the worship of the army soldiers has even deepened him, even if King Cang controls the army, as long as Lu Jingzong says a word, he can easily take it back.

Lu Boxian's words are very reasonable, why would a person who usually remains neutral suddenly turn to the side, is there any ulterior secret in this?

Maybe other people will think so, but Xu Yu definitely won't.

"If I'm not mistaken, cooperating with you is not Lu Jingzong's plan, but Lu Xiang'er's plan. ”

"She?" Lu Boxian snorted coldly, "Without Lu Jingzong behind her, is she worthy of cooperating with me?"

Xu Yu shook her head, knowing that Lu Boxian's arrogant temper had come up again, so she could only sigh and say: "It doesn't matter if she is worthy or not, it is her father who is standing behind her, this is undoubtedly confirmed, and judging from her performance just now, even if everything is what she meant, she has also been approved by her father." Therefore, in the eyes of my father, this was not a favoritism, but an accident. ”

"Accident?" Lu Boxian sneered: "Since it was an accident, why should I agree." ”

Xu Yu said: "It's just because it was an accident, so the king has to agree." Lu Xiang'er suddenly jumped out, which was something that his father did not expect, although he didn't know why, he didn't stop Lu Xiang'er, but if he didn't stop it, it was a tacit acquiescence, as long as we agreed, it would give King Cang an illusion. ”

"An illusion that we have reached an agreement with Lu Jingzong?" Lu Boxian finally smiled, a playful smile.

"Not bad. Xu Yu also smiled, "It's an illusion that we have reached an agreement with our father, and I'm not afraid that King Cang won't be fooled, because it is impossible for him to ask his father for verification, and even if he does, his father will not tell him the inside story, because his father is impartial." ”

If Lu Boxian was only shaken before, after listening to Xu Qi's words, the wavering became a complete bias, and he was already completely biased towards Xu Qi.

"It seems that tomorrow, I will go to see Lu Jingzong in person. He whispered.

There is a dilapidated courtyard in the palace, which is really a dilapidated courtyard.

The grass in front of the door was overgrown with weeds because it was untended, and the two tall sycamores, which had long since lost their leafy branches, were now only bare trunks.

The yellow leaves fell to the ground, which was the most superficial layer, and under the yellow leaves on the surface were rotten leaves mixed with silt, and if someone approached, they could easily smell a decaying smell of decay belonging to the decay of plants and trees.

Behind the plane tree is a mound, not high, not big, at least compared to ordinary tombs, not too high, not too big, and not even the grandeur of a royal mausoleum, just a small tomb, small can not be smaller.

No one knows who is buried in the grave, because there is no tombstone, I don't know if the tombstone has disappeared because of years of corrosion, or if this kind of thing never existed, in short, there is no trace of a tombstone next to the grave now.

The annex was a house that looked like it had four rooms, but there was only one door, a dilapidated wooden door, which was hidden enough to keep passers-by out of sight.

No one dared to look inside, since Lu Jingzong lived in seclusion here, there was no trace of eunuchs and palace maids and guards here, it was like a dead land, completely dead.

And now, there is a palace girl, Shi Shiran came over, this girl is none other than Lu Xiang'er, she just came back from the Taiqing Palace, and she couldn't wait to return to this thatched house, she may be the only person in Canglan Country who can enter and leave the thatched house at will.

Without knocking on the door, he walked straight in, and Lu Jingzong was sitting in the middle of the hut.

The thatched hut looks very big from the outside, but it is very small inside, but it is more than enough for two people.

It was a very simple hut, with nothing but two futons made of withered grass and a sword hanging on the wall that had been unattended for a long time.

The futon was placed in opposite directions, and Lu Jingzong sat cross-legged on a futon in the middle, with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was paying attention to Lu Xiang'er's intrusion.

Lu Xiang'er looked at this old man who was famous in Canglan City, and looked at his face engraved with the glory of his life, but now his face was full of wind and frost, and a feeling rose in her heart that even she couldn't say.

She didn't know what to say, so she just sat quietly cross-legged on the futon, not saying a word, not a word.

It's been a long time, and I don't know how long it took, until Lu Xiang'er felt that her feet were numb and she could barely sit still, that Lu Jingzong spoke: "You are here." ”

A simple sentence, like a greeting, but more like a reproach.

Lu Xiang'er lowered her head and said softly, "The granddaughter is here." ”

Lu Jingzong's voice is very special, at first glance, it sounds like an old man in his twilight years, chewing for a while, and then feeling like a young man, until it settles into his heart, and the idea of a middle-aged man comes out.

The voice was muffled by his age.

In fact, Lu Jingzong was about seventy years old, which was extremely old for an ordinary person's age, but from the perspective of a Soul Melting Stage martial artist, he was just a middle-aged man.

So you can say that he is old, or you can say that he is not old, and it is impossible to tell whether he is old or not.

But whether he is old or not, he is Lu Xiang'er's grandfather, although Lu Xiang'er does not recognize Lu Boxian's father, but he recognizes this grandfather, Lu Jingzong can be said to be the only person in the Lu family who is good to her.

As soon as she thought of this, the corners of Lu Xiang'er's mouth pursed a rounded arc.

"Grandpa, I have already informed Lu Boxian. ”

Lu Jingzong opened his eyes slightly, he was wearing a gray old Taoist robe, sitting cross-legged in the center of the futon, impartial, like a hermit in the world.

When Lu Xiang'er came into contact with his gaze, her heart suddenly trembled, and what she wanted to say was swallowed alive.

After a long time, Lu Xiang'er finally lowered her head and said calmly: "Grandpa, I'm very sorry, I still went." ”

There are not many people in Canglan Country who are qualified to talk to Lu Jingzong, but Lu Xiang'er is one of them, and he is also the one with the lowest status.

Lu Jingzong looked at her, his eyes were full of sighs: "You still went after all." ”

In a word, I can't hear joy and sorrow, only sighs, endless sighs, as if all the sighs in the world come out together.

In a word, it is not a compliment, nor a reprimand, but the tone hides the grandfather's love for his granddaughter, although it is only a little bit obscure, but it is enough.

Among Lu Boxian's children, there are not many people who can be favored by Lu Jingzong, and Lu Xiang'er is the only one among those who are not much.

When people are old, they will pamper their grandchildren, which is called intergenerational relatives, but obviously, Lu Jingzong is not such a person, it can be seen from his dislike of Lu Jiang.

But for Lu Xiang'er, he has a special favor.

"Nothing to be sorry about, it's your choice. ”

Lu Xiang'er's eyes lit up, and she said, "Grandpa doesn't blame me?"

"Blame you?" Lu Jingzong smiled, "Why should I blame you." ”

Yes, he has no reason, anyone has the right to pursue their own life, even his own granddaughter.

Lu Xiang'er sighed and said, "But didn't Lu Boxian agree?"

Indeed, although she said conclusively when she left, she was not very sure whether Lu Boxian would allow it, after all, the old feud between her and Lu Boxian was too deep, and it could never be resolved simply.

Lu Jingzong smiled and said, "Don't worry, Boxian will agree." ”

Lu Xiang'er didn't answer, but Lu Jingzong continued his words and said: "Boxian, although he is not a qualified emperor, he is not stupid, he will see the benefits of promising you." ”

Lu Xiang'er frowned slightly and said, "Will he put down his old grudge and support me?"

Lu Jingzong shook his head and said, "He will support you, but he will not let go of his old grudge." ”

Lu Xiang'er frowned and said, "I don't like guessing puzzles. ”

This was an extremely unfriendly sentence, and it could even be said to be presumptuous, but Lu Jingzong did not have the slightest intention of blaming, but explained: "Lu Boxian will already think that I am standing behind you, and for the sake of his throne, he will definitely agree to make you the crown prince." ”

Lu Xiang'er smiled and said, "Aren't I a fox and a fake tiger?"

Lu Jingzong shook his head and said: "It's not about the fox and the fake tiger, after all, from beginning to end, I didn't come forward, you just took advantage of the situation." ”

Situational?

Lu Xiang'er smiled bitterly, "So that's the case, whether grandpa supports me or not." ”

Once he said this, the hut immediately fell into silence, and the restless silence floated in the air, for a long time, Lu Jingzong sighed and said:

"I'm not going to support anyone. ”

"What if it's because of my mother?"

Lu Jingzong glanced at Lu Xiang'er deeply, "Neither will it either." He shook his head.

Lu Xiang'er smiled dismally and said, "It turns out that I am in your heart, and it is better to have a principle." ”

"It's not a matter of principle. Lu Jingzong said.

"What's that?" Lu Xiang'er chased after her, if she felt that she had no hope of getting Lu Jingzong's support at all, then she wouldn't say anything at all, because no matter what she said, it would have no effect.

But now she can clearly feel Lu Jingzong's support for her, and she hopes that he will show this support.

Well, she admits that she is selfish, and even inferior, she will calculate an old man who is good to herself, but in order to survive, she has to do this, she understands that if she does not obtain a certain status before Lu Boxian or Lu Ping gains authority, she will die.

And these two people, to themselves, are enemies.

Lu Jingzong sighed, but still said, "I can allow you to take advantage of the situation, but I can't support you." ”

"Why!"

"There is no why. Lu Jingzong said, "There are many things in this world that have no reason, and this is just one of them. ”

At this point, he suddenly spoke again: "Boxian should come to my side tomorrow morning, and you will come with me, I believe that this time, you will get what you want."

Lu Xiang'er didn't speak, but just looked at Lu Jingzong deeply.

It was night, no one was sleeping, Han Chuang got rid of Li Suyan, and was meeting Father Gu and Ye Shengtian returning home, as soon as the three of them met, they skipped the greetings and started to communicate directly.

"I met a person from the Snowy Sword Sect, and she also visited the Cangwang Mansion at night. ”

"We found the map of the Cangwang Mansion, and there are dungeon patterns in the map. ”

Two very different expressions appeared on the faces of the three people.

Father Gu and Ye Shengtian were puzzled, they wondered why the people from the Snowy Sword Sect would visit the Cangwang Mansion at night, but Han Chuang was overjoyed, because of the map.

"Show it to me!" Han Chuang didn't give anyone a chance to continue asking, and said directly.

Father Gu handed the sheepskin to him and said, "How did you meet someone from the Snowy Sword Sect?"

Han Chuang was puzzled, "Do you know this sect?"

Ye Shengtian also looked at Daddy Gu with a puzzled expression, in his opinion, Daddy Gu should not have anything to do with this kind of sect.

Seeing the disbelieving expressions of the two, Father Gu smiled slightly and said, "You two really don't believe it, I do have something to do with the Snowy Sword Sect." ”

Han Chuang's eyes lit up and said, "What does it matter?"

Father Gu said, "My master is the pharmacist of the Snowy Sword Sect back then. ”

Han Chuang continued to wonder, and after Father Gu's explanation, it gradually became clear that the Snowy Sword Sect was not good at medicine, so the status of an external pharmacist was equivalent to that of an elder in the sect, but he did not have the rights of an elder. Daddy Gu's master was a pharmacist of the Snowy Sword Sect back then.

"Then what is the strength of this Snowy Sword Sect?" Han Chuang asked again, he would not forget what Li Sumei had said when he left.

Father Gu and Ye Shengtian glanced at each other, and finally Father Gu spoke: "The Snowy Sword Sect is considered to be the top sect in the northwest, as far as I know, the elders in the sect all have the strength of the middle stage of soul melting, and even the peak of soul melting, why, did you offend that girl from the Snowy Sword Sect?"

"Not really. Han Chuang smiled, "Don't look at me like this, there really isn't." ”
