Rui Xiaozhu did not deceive Song Qingqing.

The candied osmanthus cake in that pastry shop is indeed delicious, and it is not a loss that it is from the master's handwriting.

Both the appearance and the taste are impeccable.

But at this moment, Song Qingqing, who was sitting in the pavilion in the inner courtyard, was extremely remorseful.

She was holding a pair of chopsticks in her hand, and she was constantly poking the half of the osmanthus cake in front of her, even if the cake had been mashed, she still had no intention of stopping.

Her eyes were fixed on a candle-lit room not far away, and two figures could be faintly seen close together.

After dinner, everyone was assigned their own rooms, and Rui Xiaozhu took Chu Qingxiao to the room, which had not come out for half an hour.

Thinking of his own sword kui and the old woman who was alone in the room with Brother Qingxiao on the left and Brother Qingxiao on the right, Song Qingqing felt that his heart was like a cat scratching, and the nest was on fire to the extreme.

"Now you know you're in a hurry? When I just ate osmanthus cake, I thought you were very happy? ”

"Huh? Is it tasty? That's for your brother Qingxiao! Chu Zhaozhao on the side glared at Song Qingqing coldly, and said angrily in his mouth.

Song Qingqing knew that he was at a loss when he heard this, and rarely did not refute Chu Zhaozhao, but muttered a little stiffly.

"The money in the hanging mountain this day is all ill-gotten gains, that woman is already better than me, she has so much money in her hands, if she uses it to buy some elixir, wouldn't we be even more opponents!"

"I spent her money, you look like I'm gluttonous, but in fact I'm trying to waste her money and weaken her threat......"

The more Song Qingqing said that he couldn't stop being confident, and in the end, his voice was weak, and his head lowered unconsciously, obviously not daring to look at Chu Zhaozhao.

At this moment, the night is dark, the brothers and sisters of the Meng family have returned to their respective rooms to sleep, Lu Sandao is drinking alone in the outer courtyard, Xu Dangren is enjoying the shade in the distance, Liaoyuan seems to have a great interest in human books since he feasted on books in the library pavilion, and he also flipped through books in his room.

Only Chu Zhaozhao, Song Qingqing and Xue Sanniang were at the pavilion.

However, compared to the nervousness of Chu Zhaozhao and Song Qingqing, Xue Sanniang looked leisurely, just sorting out the herbs while talking to the two of them.

She glanced at the two of them with nervous expressions, and said with a smile: "You too, Miss Rui and Chu Gongzi are old acquaintances, and they finally met, so naturally they have to catch up with the past, what are you doing so nervously, you can't always tie Chu Gongzi to your body in the future?" ”

"Renewing? Sister Sanniang, didn't you see that Rui Xiaozhu looking at Chu Qingxiao? The water in those eyes is going to flow out! Looking like that, I want to eat her. Chu Zhaozhao said.

"Yes! That old woman has bad intentions and has to be guarded against! Song Qingqing made a surprising choice to stand on the united front with Chu Zhaozhao.

Looking at the excited appearance of the two, Xue Sanniang couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle: "Even if that's the case, why are you so excited?" Could it be that you are jealous? ”

Both of them turned red.

"I ...... I didn't, I just received an order from Uncle Xiao to bring him to Uncle Xiao, if someone intercepted him halfway, I couldn't explain to Uncle Xiao! Chu Zhaozhao found a lame reason.

"Brother Qingxiao is the sword leader of my Sword Yue City! He is tasked with revitalizing Jianyue City! I was worried that he was bewitched by a woman, and since then he has fallen into the gentle country and lost his ...... Lost heart! Song Qingqing found a more lame reason.

Xue Sanniang looked at the hard-mouthed two, and couldn't help but shake her head, secretly feeling that the two little girls were very interesting.

And at this moment, the corner of Song Qingqing's eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of the two bodies in the room

The shadows seemed to be glued together.

Her heart suddenly tightened, and she pointed to the place and exclaimed, "Not good! That old woman is getting started! ”

……

"Brother Qingxiao, don't worry, that guy Xiang An said it well, but even if he really had those evidences, he wouldn't dare to report it to the sect and the imperial court."

In the room, Rui Xiaozhu raised his hand and poured a cup of tea for Chu Qingxiao, and handed over the tea while whispering.

She was very close at the moment, half of her body was close to Chu Qingxiao, and Chu Qingxiao could clearly smell the faint fragrance coming from her.

Chu Qingxiao couldn't help but feel a little distracted, he hurriedly stepped back, and his face was a little flustered.

And such a look naturally fell in Rui Xiaozhu's eyes, and the corners of the woman's mouth rose slightly, revealing a smile, but it was not broken.

Chu Qingxiao's face flushed slightly, perhaps to alleviate the embarrassment, he asked, "Why doesn't he dare?" ”

"Brother Qingxiao is confused, have you forgotten who else you know in Hanging Mountain this day?" Rui Xiaozhu glanced at Chu Qingxiao coquettishly and said.

Chu Qingxiao was stunned: "You mean Nianshuang?" ”

"Naturally! Nian Shuang is now a Tianjiao who is about to enter the Nine Realms. ”

"At such an age, with such cultivation, not to mention Great Xia, it is the whole world, counting three hundred years in front of you, and three hundred years in the future, it is estimated that there is only one person who can compare with King Wu."

"Brother Qingxiao, you and she are childhood sweethearts, Xiang An is saying righteousness and awe-inspiring righteousness, but in his heart he is full of his own glory and wealth."

"How can such a person not be afraid of the Heavenly Hanging Mountain Sect in the future?"

"So, before Zhao Nianshuang's position is clear, he will never be unfavorable to you. The threat just now is probably the limit of what he can do at the moment. ”

Chu Qingxiao heard the meaning of Rui Xiaozhu's words.

His face sank, and he looked at Rui Xiaozhu and said, "Then what do you think Nianshuang's position will be?" ”

The smile on Rui Xiaozhu's face froze, she was silent for a while, and then said, "Brother Qingxiao wants to hear the truth, or is it a lie?" ”

"Nature is true." Chu Qingxiao said.

"I really don't know." A hint of loneliness flashed on Rui Xiaozhu's face.

"Twelve years is enough to change a lot of things, just like Xiang An, I thought he was the same person as you, but it turns out that people can change."

"Zhao Nianshuang has been even more so over the years, I rarely have the opportunity to see her, and even if I see her most of the time, she is cold. I couldn't guess what she was thinking, let alone what she wanted. ”

After Chu Qingxiao walked out of Wuling City, he met several old people, and Chu Qingxiao naturally felt their changes, and he could understand the meaning of Rui Xiaozhu's words.

But he was still puzzled: "I don't understand. ”

"I understand that they were all victims of what happened back then, and I don't hate them, after all, if I were in their situation, I probably wouldn't have done better."

"But to find out the truth and return the swords and armor to a clean slate, why are they so resistant to Xiang An or Li Zaishan, and they even don't hesitate to fight for their lives......"

Rui Xiaozhu sighed a little helplessly: "Brother Qingxiao, ......"

"Haven't you thought that when Wuling City was surrounded by the north, outsiders couldn't enter at all, and what happened inside was only known to those who came out of it."

"Someone wants to convict the sword armor in Wuling City, who should corroborate everything that happened in this to be the most convincing?"

Chu Qingxiao was stunned for a moment, and also remembered what Li Zaishan had told him at that time.

"You're saying they committed perjury and were afraid of being exposed......"

“

And that's not all. Rui Xiaozhu said: "We were indeed forced by the sect to sign the testimony in desperation. ”

"But that's just a desperate attempt to make ends meet."

"What really makes Xiang An and them worried because of your appearance is ......"

Rui Xiaozhu paused when he said this, as if he was thinking about how to describe this matter.

"If Brother Qingxiao, you are the initiator behind all this."

"You threatened Xiang An and others to testify for you, and you can't kill these disciples who are valued by Tianhang Mountain, you want them to stand on your side forever, what do you think is the best way?"

This question is too scheming, and it is really difficult for Chu Qingxiao, he frowned, thought for a while, but could only shake his head helplessly.

Rui Xiaozhu didn't care, and continued: "Naturally, I want to find a way to make them become a person with you, give them some benefits that they can't refuse, and let everything be bound to you." ”

"One wins, one loses, so you never have to worry about being betrayed by them......"

Hearing this, Chu Qingxiao's heart trembled, and all the confusion in his heart before was solved at this moment.

He finally figured out why Xiang An and Li Zaishan were so afraid of his appearance, and why they would do everything to prevent him from finding out the truth back then.

"But what are those things?" Chu Qingxiao couldn't help asking.

Rui Xiaozhu shook his head: "When I first arrived at Tianhang Mountain, my talent was extremely poor, and all the gods and peaks looked down on me, they almost regarded me as a transparent person, and even signed and painted the perjury back then, without my participation, and later I learned about it, and I had a quarrel with Xiang An." ”

"I don't know who they came into contact with or what kind of benefits they received."

"It's just that in a few conversations, I've heard them mention the name of the master......"

Speaking of this, a look of worry appeared on Rui Xiaozhu's face, she looked at Chu Qingxiao and said, "So, Brother Qingxiao, if you want to find out the truth of the past, or correct the name of the Xizhou Sword Armor, you have to act carefully......

"If you can let the Heavenly Hanging Mountain Sect participate in it, no one can say who else is planning together."

Chu Qingxiao had already realized that there were extremely powerful forces behind the events of the past, he nodded, and said, "Xiaozhu, don't worry, I won't be reckless." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at Rui Xiaozhu with some concern: "But Xiang An now knows my identity, even if he doesn't dare to make things like Sword Slave City public because of Nianshuang, it shouldn't be difficult to tell the people behind me about my existence......

"Xiaozhu, you are too close to me, I am afraid that you will be implicated."

Rui Xiaozhu looked at the genuine concern and worry in Chu Qingxiao's eyes, her heart warmed, the autumn water in her eyes surged, and her gaze towards Chu Qingxiao became more and more tender.

"Xiaozhu is not afraid."

"In the past twelve years, I have regretted every day why I left Wuling City in the first place, why didn't I die there with Brother Qingxiao."

"Now God has given me the opportunity to see Brother Qingxiao again......"

"No matter what Brother Qingxiao does, Xiaozhu will help you."

"And ......"

Speaking of this, Rui Xiaozhu was stunned, and two red clouds appeared on his cheeks.

Her body fell directly into Chu Qingxiao's arms, her head was on the young man's chest, and she said in a soft voice.

"Moreover, Brother Qingxiao said that as long as he walks out of Wuling City alive, he will marry me......"

"Xiaozhu is my brother's wife, and naturally her husband sings with her ......"

"No regrets."
