He decided to teach Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong a profound lesson, letting them know that the Nangong family was not at their mercy.

But Nangong Jian also knew that if he wanted to deal with Zhao Rang and the Seven Princes, the strength of the Nangong family alone was obviously not enough.

He needs to find a strong ally, an ally that can stand up to the royal family.

And this candidate is none other than Liu Qiansi of the Tiansi Jade Silk Pavilion.

Thinking of this, Nangong Jian immediately got up and went to the Heavenly Silk Jade Silk Pavilion.

Liu Qiansi was sitting on the soft couch in the pavilion at the moment, playing with a string of crystal clear jade beads in her hand.

He had a faint smile on his face, as if everything was under her control.

When Nangong Jian walked in, he raised his head slightly, glanced at it, and then stood up gracefully.

"The head of the Nangong family, a rare guest."

Liu Qiansi's voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, but it carried a power that could not be ignored.

Nangong Jian looked at Liu Qiansi, and secretly admired in his heart, he was indeed a rare ally!

"Lord Liuge, I'm here to negotiate a deal with you."

Nangong Jian said bluntly.

Liu Qiansi smiled slightly, and motioned for Nangong Jian to sit down and talk carefully.

"If the head of the Nangong family has any proposals, you might as well say it directly."

Nangong Jian sat on the soft couch and looked directly at Liu Qiansi.

"Zhao Rang and the Seventh Prince Yuan Mingkong are supporting the Admiralty Dart Bureau behind their backs, intending to be enemies of my Nangong family."

After a pause, he continued:

"I know that the Lord of the Liu Pavilion has cooperated with the Admiralty Dart Bureau, and the content of that agreement, I'm afraid only the Lord of the Liu Pavilion knows best."

When Liu Qiansi heard this, a strange light flashed in her eyes.

He did know the contents of the agreement, and she knew that it was very important to both the Admiralty Dart Bureau and the Tencel Jade Silk Pavilion.

"The head of the Nangong family means ......"

"I hope that the Liu Pavilion Lord can join forces with me to deal with Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong together."

Nangong Jian's tone was firm and powerful.

He knew that his proposal was a huge temptation for Liu Qiansi.

If it can join forces with the Nangong family, then the position of the Tiansi Jade Silk Pavilion in the imperial city will be even more stable.

Liu Qiansi was silent for a moment, as if weighing the pros and cons.

Finally, he spoke slowly:

"I can join forces with you, but I have my conditions."

Nangong Jian was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said:

"Please."

"I want Zhao Rang's head."

Liu Qiansi's tone was cold and resolute.

Nangong Jian was slightly stunned after hearing this, but quickly regained his composure.

"No problem, Zhao Rang's head is yours."

Nangong Jian and Liu Qiansi have already begun to plot how to deal with Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong, and Jin Lu, the new chief dart head of the Admiralty Dart Bureau, is also secretly investigating the contents of the mysterious agreement.

"Young master, there is a visitor."

Fauber's voice came from outside the door.

Zhao Rang smiled slightly, put away the jade pendant, and walked out of the study.

The visitor was a tall man with a resolute face, who was none other than Jin Lu, the new chief dart head of the Admiralty Dart Bureau.

"Zhao Gongzi, I am fortunate to meet you."

Jin Lu arched his hand and said.

"Mr. Kim, please be seated."

Zhao Rang smiled and invited Jin Lu to take a seat, and personally poured tea for him.

Jin Lu looked at Zhao Rang's actions and secretly admired in his heart.

This Zhao Gongzi is extremely resourceful, his martial arts cultivation is extraordinary, and he is already a master of the third-grade grandmaster realm at a young age, and he is indeed a great character!

"Zhao Gongzi, I have already started to investigate the content of that agreement within the dart bureau according to your request."

Jin Lu said after taking a sip of tea.

"Did you find anything?"

Zhao Rang asked with interest.

Jin Lu nodded, took out a note from his arms and handed it to Zhao Rang.

Zhao Rang took the note and looked at it, and it was written on the Prime Minister's Mansion and Prime Minister Li Shenglin.

Zhao Rang told the news brought by Jin Lu to the Seventh Prince Yuan Mingkong as it was.

After hearing this, Yuan Mingkong frowned tightly and pondered for a long time.

"Is there collusion between Prime Minister Li Shenglin and the people of Baiheshan?"

He muttered to himself, his face full of confusion:

"What the hell is going on?"

Zhao Rang also felt that things were quite strange, he shook his head and said:

"It's really puzzling. If they had already colluded, why didn't they join forces at the Spring Festival Night Banquet? Moreover, we all saw the situation that night, and the Prime Minister did not have any privilege in front of Lan Shizi of Baihe Mountain. ”

Yuan Mingkong nodded and said:

"Exactly. If there is any collusion between the prime minister and Baiheshan, that night should be the best time to attack. But they didn't, and why? ”

The two looked at each other speechlessly, and both felt that there must be a bigger conspiracy behind this matter.

"Anyway,"

Yuan Mingkong broke the silence:

"Prime Minister Li Shenglin's identity is special, we need to be cautious, and we must not startle the snake."

Zhao Rang agreed:

"What Your Highness said is very true. This matter should not be publicized for the time being, let alone let Captain Jiang of the Imperial City Soldiers and Horses Division know. ”

Yuan Mingkong sighed:

"Now in the imperial city, there are treacherous waves, and the dark tide of forces from all sides is surging. We need to be more careful. ”

They didn't realize that Nangong Jian and Liu Qiansi of the Tiansi Jade Silk Pavilion had reached an alliance, and they decided to join forces to deal with Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong.

In order to show his sincerity, Nangong Jian made a heavy promise.

Liu Qiansi has an unknown grievance with the Zhao family, and this time he has the opportunity to finish off Zhao Rang with his own hands, so he naturally will not let it go.

Zhao Rang was still kept in the dark, and he was bent on investigating the matter of Prime Minister Li Shenglin, but he didn't know that he had become the target of others.

As night falls, the lights come on.

Liu Qiansi sat alone in the Tiansi Jade Silk Pavilion.

In front of him was a delicate guqin.

Plucked the strings lightly, making a melodious and deep sound, his thoughts drifted back to the past, and those grievances and hatreds with the Zhao family surged into his heart like a tide.

He had vowed to end the feud with his own hands, and now, the opportunity has finally come.

Liu Qiansi knew that the strength of the Nangong family in the Imperial City was not strong, and it had been closely watched by the Imperial City Soldiers and Horses, and it was difficult to make a big move.

Therefore, if he wants to take Zhao Rang's life, he has to do it himself.

Thinking of this, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Suddenly, he remembered the white-clothed young man who had stopped his car frame and attacked and killed him.

The young man's swordsmanship was sharp and swift, and he was deeply impressed.

Perhaps, he can become a pawn in his own plans.

Liu Qiansi decided to talk to him personally to see if she could take him for her own use.

The next morning, the sun shone through every corner of the imperial city.

Liu Qiansi sat on the soft couch of the Jade Silk Pavilion, the sunlight shining through the hollow window, and the mottled light and shadow reflected his contemplative face.

He was thinking about how to use the young man in white, this young man's swordsmanship was outstanding, and if he could use it for himself, he would definitely be able to use it as a sharp sword against Zhao Rang.

"Tsing Yi."

Liu Qiansi called softly.

"I want you to find out where the young man in white is."

When Tsing Yi heard Liu Qiansi's order, he immediately flashed out of the black shadow, bowed down and responded:

"Yes, Pavilion Master."

It didn't take long for Tsing Yi to bring back the news. He whispered in Liu Qiansi's ear:

"The young man in white is now staying in an inn in the east of the city."

When Liu Qiansi heard this, her eyes narrowed slightly.

Tsing Yi suggested:

"Pavilion Master, in my opinion, we should not act rashly. That young man has strong swordsmanship and a withdrawn personality, and if we send someone to contact him directly, I am afraid it will backfire. ”

After hearing this, Liu Qiansi couldn't help but nod in agreement:

"You're right. So what do you think we should do? ”

Tsing Yi pondered for a moment and said:

"We can send a woman who has no martial arts cultivation, looks harmless, innocent and kind, but quite clever to contact him first. In this way, you can get to the bottom of him, but it will not arouse his alarm. ”

When Liu Qiansi heard this, she secretly admired Tsing Yi's wit in her heart. He thought for a moment, clapped his hands, and said:

"Well, let's do it."

So, Liu Qiansi sends an embroidery girl named Fluttershy to the inn.

Fluttershy is young, petite and cute, with big eyes full of innocence and kindness.

She has not practiced martial arts, she is just an ordinary embroidery girl in the Tiansi Jade Silk Pavilion.

But her mind is delicate, which is quite appreciated by Tsing Yi.

With a light step, Fluttershy walks into the inn to the east of the city.

She was wearing a pale pink dress, her hair was gently pulled up, and she had a sweet smile on her face, as pure and lovely as the little girl next door.

Looking around, he soon found the young man in white sitting in the corner.

The young man was alone, with a pot of tea in front of him, and was looking out the window.

The figure looked a little lonely in the afternoon sun, but it revealed an indescribable height.

Fluttershy takes a deep breath, adjusts her mindset, and slowly walks towards the boy in white.

"Childe, do you drink tea alone?"

Fluttershy asks softly, her voice warm to the heart.

The young man in white turned his head, with a hint of doubt in his clear eyes.

He looks at Fluttershy, as if trying to figure out what she meant.

"What's the matter with the girl?"

His voice was aloof and detached, rejecting people from thousands of miles away.

Undeterred, Fluttershy smiled and said:

"I'm an embroiderer and I'm looking for some new embroidery patterns. I look at the childe's dress, and I must have a good taste for clothing. ”

When the young man in white heard this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He obviously didn't expect the seemingly innocent girl to talk to him so directly.

There was silence for a moment before he slowly spoke:

"The girl has won the prize. I don't have much research on costumes, so I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the girl. ”

Fluttershy shook her head slightly, and smiled:

"Childe is too modest. I think Childe's temperament is extraordinary, and he must have a unique insight into aesthetics. Even if you don't know how to wear, you can give some advice. ”

The boy in white looks at Fluttershy's expectant eyes and shakes his heart.

He had never spoken to such a simple and enthusiastic woman, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.

He frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.

Finally, he nodded and said:

"Since the girl said so, then I will do what I can."

Fluttershy smiles when she hears this.

He pulled over a chair and sat down across from the young man in white, and began to talk to him.

The young man in white, named Bai Yi, feels a little helpless in the face of Fluttershy's innocent smile and enthusiastic inquiry.

"Childe, what kind of embroidery do you think can match your temperament?"

Fluttershy asks curiously, blinking her eyes wide.

Bai Yi was stunned for a moment, he had never thought too much about his dress, let alone embroidery. However, looking at Fluttershy's expectant eyes, he can't bear to refuse.

"I ...... I don't know very well. ”

Yunyi was a little embarrassed.

"Perhaps, a simple and elegant style would suit me better."

Fluttershy's eyes lit up and she clapped her hands.

"Simple and generous, this is really in line with the temperament of the childe. It's just that I don't know what color Childe likes? ”

Bai Yi thought for a while and said, "White, white is more refreshing." ”

"White, that's great! I happen to have an embroidery pattern called 'Yun Jin Bai', which is both simple and generous, and Childe will definitely like it. ”

Fluttershy says excitedly.

Bai Yi looks at Fluttershy's excited appearance and can't help but feel a little funny.

He had never seen such a passionate and innocent woman, which made him feel a little strange and a little confused.

"In that case, then there is Miss Lao."

Bai Yi said.

Fluttershy is overjoyed.

She began to talk about her embroidery skills endlessly, as if she wanted to show Bai Yi all her talents.

Bai Yi listened quietly, occasionally nodding in agreement.

Although this young girl is still young, she has such a deep love and dedication to embroidery, which is really admirable.

The two talk happily until the sun sets, and Fluttershy reluctantly bids farewell to Bai Yi and returns to the Celestial Jade Silk Pavilion.

When Tsing Yi sees Fluttershy returning, she asks eagerly:

"How?"

Fluttershy recounts her conversation with Bai Yi today.

After hearing this, Tsing Yi said:

"Good, you're doing well."

"Next, you have to keep in touch with him and get to know him as much as you can."

Less than an hour after Fluttershy returns, the inn's second child hurriedly delivers a letter to the Tencel Jade Silk Pavilion.

On the envelope, there are several big words written "Lord Liuge personally opened", the pen is sharp, revealing a sharp spirit that cannot be ignored.

Liu Qiansi took the letter, opened it and looked at it, there were only a few words on the letter, but the words were like a sword, piercing his heart.

The letter read: "We will eliminate our grievances, and there is no need to bring innocent people into the game." ”

At the end of the letter, it was not signed.

But that unique handwriting, who else can there be besides Bai Yi?

Clearly, Bai Yi has already seen through Fluttershy's identity and the schemes of the Celestial Jade Silk Pavilion.

This made Tsing Yi on the side feel a little surprised.

He originally thought that this plan was seamless, but he didn't expect it to be seen through by Bai Yi.

Liu Qiansi put down the letter, took a deep breath, and a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes.

He originally wanted to use Bai Yi to deal with Zhao Rang, but he didn't expect this young man to be so alert that he would sense something was wrong in such a short period of time.

"Tsing Yi, it looks like our plans need to be adjusted."

Liu Qiansi said slowly.

Tsing Yi nodded in response:

"Yes, Pavilion Master. This Bai Yi is obviously not an ordinary Jianghu person, we need to be more careful. ”

Liu Qiansi pondered for a moment and said:

"Now that he knows our plan, it's going to be hard to pull him in."

"Please make it clear."

Tsing Yi said respectfully.

As the night grew darker, Bai Yi sat alone in the inn room, and there was silence outside the window, just like his mood at the moment.

He already knows Fluttershy's true identity and the Celestial Jade Pavilion's intentions.

This made him feel a little angry, and at the same time a little helpless.

There was a sudden slight knock on the door. Bai Yi frowned, secretly vigilant in his heart.

He walked slowly to the door and asked softly, "Who?" ”

"It's me, Fluttershy."

A familiar voice came from outside the door.

Bai Yi didn't expect Fluttershy to dare to come to him.

A hint of mixed emotions flashed through his heart, but he finally opened the door.

Fluttershy stands outside the door, moonlight shining on her face, reflecting her clear eyes.

She looked at Bai Yi with a hint of apology and helplessness on her face.

"I know you already know who I am."

Fluttershy whispers.

"I'm here to apologize to you, I shouldn't have deceived you."

Bai Yi looks at Fluttershy's sincere eyes, and the anger in her heart gradually dissipates a little.

He sighed and said:

"You go, I don't want you to get involved in this dispute anymore."

Fluttershy's eyes flash with disappointment.

Suddenly took out something from his arms and handed it to Bai Yi.

"This is the Yunjin white cloth I embroidered for you, I hope you can accept it."

Fluttershy says.

Bai Yi took the handkerchief, looked at the exquisite embroidery on it, and couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.

He looks up, but Fluttershy's back is gone.

He couldn't stay out of the controversy himself, and he really didn't want innocent people to be held in any way.

Especially such a little embroidery girl who has no martial arts cultivation.

Liu Qiansi was playing with a jade chess piece in her hand, and an unfathomable smile appeared on her face.

When he heard that Bai Yi had accepted the white handkerchief embroidered by Fluttershy, he had a plan in his heart.

"Tsing Yi, you see, this Bai Yi Gongzi is not a ruthless person who kills innocents indiscriminately."

Liu Qiansi spoke slowly.

Tsing Yi stood aside, bowed his head and responded:

"The Pavilion Master is wise. This Bai Yi son seems to be indifferent, but he actually has tenderness. ”

"In that case, let's use his tenderness to make a game."

Liu Qiansi gently landed the chess pieces in her hand on the chessboard.

When Tsing Yi heard this, his heart moved, but he did not respond immediately.

He knows that Liu Qiansi has many schemes, and this time he must use Fluttershy to contain Bai Yi.

"You use Fluttershy's life to force Bai Yi to bow her head."

Liu Qiansi continued:

"Didn't he want to bring innocent people into the game? Then let him see how his kindness will harm those innocent people. ”

Tsing Yi nodded in agreement, turned and retreated.

He knew that Bai Yi would also become a pawn in it.

At the dawn of the sky, Tsing Yi hurried to the inn, found Bai Yi's door, and knocked softly.

The door opened, and Bai Yi was dressed in white and stood behind the door with a calm face.

"Bai Yi Gongzi, my pavilion master is invited, I invite you to go to the Tiansi Jade Silk Pavilion to taste tea and listen to the play."

Tsing Yi said respectfully.

A hint of determination flashed in Bai Yi's eyes, he already knew the turmoil hidden behind this invitation.

However, since he already has the determination to fight with Liu Qiansi, he will naturally not back down.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

He replied indifferently.

When a person puts life and death aside, the troubles of the world can no longer shake his mind.

This is the case with Bai Yi.

He straightened his clothes, followed Tsing Yi out of the inn, and walked all the way towards the Tiansi Jade Silk Pavilion.

In the Tiansi Jade Silk Pavilion, Liu Qiansi sat on the main seat, smiling.

Seeing Bai Yi coming, he waved his hand, signaled Tsing Yi to retreat, and then personally led Bai Yi into his seat.

"Bai Yi Gongzi, I invited you here today to invite you to listen to a good show."

Liu Qiansi said, clapped her hands, and the curtain on the stage slowly opened.

The play is called "Catching the Thief".

seems to be a simple drama, but there is a hidden shadow of swords.

In full view of everyone, the thief in the play is revealed, and what he stole is a priceless brocade.

The brocade is brilliant, and at first glance you know that it is not ordinary.

At the climax of the play, Liu Qiansi suddenly turned to Bai Yi coldly:

"Bai Yi Gongzi, look at this thief, he buried his future for a brocade. Greed, what a terrible thing. ”

Bai Yi sneered in his heart when he heard this.

How could he not know the metaphor in Liu Qiansi's words?

But his face remained unchanged, and he only responded lightly:

"What Lord Liu Pavilion said is that greed is indeed terrifying. But there are some people who do not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of innocent people for the sake of power and profit. ”

A chill flashed in Liu Qiansi's eyes, but she quickly covered it up.

He clapped his hands again, and saw several guards escorting a trembling girl onto the stage.

The girl is none other than Fluttershy.

At this moment, she was stripped of her outer clothes, leaving only a thin undergarment.

And she was wearing the priceless brocade.

"Young Master Bai Yi, this Fluttershy is the thief of my Tencel Jade Silk Pavilion."

Liu Qiansi said coldly.

"According to the rules, she should be executed on the spot."

Bai Yi's heart tightened, and he looked at Fluttershy's helpless and frightened eyes, remembering the white handkerchief she had given him last night. He knew he couldn't sit idly by.

"Pavilion Lord, Fluttershy is just a weak woman, how can she have the guts to steal your Pavilion's belongings?"

Bai Yi said in a deep voice.

"I'm afraid there's something else going on here."

"Bai Gongzi seems to know a lot about Fluttershy, the embroiderer?"

Liu Qiansi raised her eyebrows and asked.

"I think this needs to be thoroughly investigated. If Fluttershy is really a thief, then there's nothing wrong with following the rules. But if she is wronged......"

Bai Yi paused, and looked directly into Liu Qiansi's eyes.

"So, should the Pavilion Master give her justice?"

When Liu Qiansi heard this, she laughed:

"Bai Yi Gongzi, are you pitying the fragrance and cherishing the jade? However, the rules of my Tencel Jade Silk Pavilion cannot be broken. Unless ......"

He paused deliberately.

"Unless you can do one thing for me."

Bai Yi sneered in his heart, he knew that Liu Qiansi's conditions would never be simple.

But he still nodded: "As long as I can do it, and it doesn't violate moral principles, I promise you." ”

For Bai Yi, who has a will to die, all the troubles in this world are insignificant.

"Bai Gongzi is really fast. So, I'll get straight to the point. I want you to kill a man for me. ”

Bai Yi knows very well that the person mentioned by Liu Qiansi must be extraordinary.

"Who?"

He asked faintly, without a hint of emotion in his voice.

"Zhao family, Zhao Rang."

Liu Qiansi said word by word, as if she wanted to engrave these four words into Bai Yi's heart.

Bai Yi's heart moved, he had already heard that Zhao Rang was inextricably linked with many forces in the imperial city.

Liu Qiansi's move is undoubtedly to borrow a knife to kill people and kill two birds with one stone.

"Why me?"

Bai Yi asked rhetorically, he wanted to know what kind of calculation Liu Qiansi was having.

Liu Qiansi chuckled:

"Because you have the power of Vajra and the heart of a bodhisattva!"
