The military department?

Xie Wuyi was overjoyed, she originally wanted to ask Xiao Wei before, but she was disturbed by his temper and forgot about it. She was just about to get out of the screen, and immediately thought that Xiao Wei would take the opportunity to blackmail her into revealing her true identity at this time?

In a dilemma, a bony hand pulled her out of the screen. Xie Wuyi asked for clues from the Ministry of War, so Xiao Wei dragged her to stop in front of him. His breath was so close that she could even see her own shadow in those moon-light eyes.

He's just a joke and no sense of proportion.

For the sake of the case, endure it again.

Xiao Wei hooked Xie Wuyi's jaw, and the clear breath flowed between his lips and teeth, and his voice was as tight as a mountain stream.

"But there is one condition......

"I refuse." Xie Wuyi replied without thinking.

"Oh?" Xiao Wei's eyes had a hint of playfulness, "Don't you allow Ah Nian to cook food for you, do you mind so much?" ”

What a thing.

Xie Wuyi frowned, and was just about to get out of Xiao Wei's confinement when he saw Feng Da jumping into the house.

"Your Highness—"

Seeing that the two were sticking together, Feng Da turned his back and raised his arm to cover his eyes.

Xiao Wei was also stunned, Xie Wuyi quickly took advantage of the situation to knock off his hand and stand aside. Xiao Wei sat at the table, took a few chess pieces back to the chess box, and said expressionlessly: "Turn around and talk about things." ”

"Yes!" Feng Da immediately agreed and turned around, bowed his head and handed over a famous post, "Princess Chu invites Madame to go to the Leaning Moon Hall to talk about it." ”

Xiao Yu's princess?

Xiao Wei took the name card and slapped Feng Da on the back of the head with his backhand, "Call the princess!" Madame, is that what you call too? ”

Feng Da covered his head aggrievedly and didn't dare to say anything, Xiao Wei didn't bother to pay attention to him, and kicked him out.

"The Leaning Moon Hall is the front hall of Zhao Jin Terrace, and it is also the place where Zeyang publicly worships Wu Jin, and the twelfth day of each month is the time for the royal ladies to worship, and it is reasonable for the five sisters-in-law to post." Seeing that Xie Wuyi's expression was a little solemn, Xiao Wei patiently explained.

"I'm hurt, can I refuse?"

It's the royal family again, Xie Wuyi is really afraid of dealing with the royal family, these people all have 10,000 hearts, and she really can't cope with it. What's more, she is now anxious about Qiao Chun's case, how can she have time to talk to Princess Chu, who is not familiar with her at all?

Not to mention the bereaved family members of the rebels, what is even worse is that Xie Wuyi, the witch, is fake from beginning to end, Si Wu is in retreat in Zhaojiantai, isn't she killing herself in the past now?

Xiao Wei looked at Xie Wuyi with a smile, "I suggest you don't." ”

Xie Wuyi was stunned for a moment, and quickly realized.

Pinglin Garden!

Yes, maybe Xiao Yun invited her over in the name of Princess Chu.

Xie Wuyi summoned into the spring mud, asked her to comb her hair in a bun that could meet guests, put on a coat and went out. Xiao Wei watched Xie Wuyi's fiery footsteps with interest, and glanced at Cheng Cheng again. Cheng Zhizhi understood, like an invisible man silently following behind the carriage.

Zhao Jin Tai is located in the center of Zeyang, the golden roof red gate, glazed blue tiles, there is the oblique moon hall for people to worship in front, and there is the Luanxing Pavilion where the witch lives in the back, the two complement each other, it is more gorgeous and solemn than the imperial palace. Along the way, there were already guards along the way. When they saw the carriage of the Yan Palace, they also said that only Xie Wuyi was allowed to enter the door.

Xie Wuyi walked into the Leaning Moon Hall, and a woman wearing a moon-white satin skirt was kneeling and praying in the main hall, which at first glance looked like a clear and ethereal lotus flower in the pool.

Princess Chu was born in Jiangmen, and her father Shen Guogong also went out with the emperor to quell the rebellion, and is now guarding the eastern border of Dayu. Princess Chu is dignified and dignified, and she does not see the style of a martial artist at all, which is completely different from Zhong Yue, who jumped out.

Xie Wuyi stepped forward to greet her, but Princess Chu was concentrating on praying and ignored it. Thinking of Yu Ren's reverence for Wu Jin, Xie Wuyi had no choice but to wait a little farther behind her, hanging his hands.

In a moment, a waiter walked out of the back of the hall and stood directly in front of Princess Chu and Xie Wuyi.

"Why don't you worship?"

Xie Wuyi looked at his purple robe and the butterfly on his crown, and his heart couldn't help but be shocked.

Along the way, Guang was worried about the clues of the military department, and almost forgot that she was still in the name of the Great Yu Witch, and this attendant was most likely sent by the mysterious Si Wu to test her.

Such a great opportunity cannot be wasted.

The corners of Xie Wuyi's lips raised slightly, and he replied solemnly: "The witch enters the door, and she doesn't worship Wu Jin before she cleans her hands." ”

The "entrance" here is not only the meaning of entering the door, but also the first time the shrine maiden came to see Wu Jin in person.

The waiter nodded in satisfaction, took three steps back, and asked for a pure bottle as white as jade.

Xie Wuyi knew that this was preparing to officially verify her shrine maiden identity. She pulled out the smoke and held it to her fingertips, lifted the hem of her skirt with her other hand, took three steps forward, and then knelt on the ground and stretched out her right hand. The waiter dropped the water in the bottle on Xie Wuyi's hand, and when the water ran out, Xie Wuyi exposed his forearm, pointed the water in his palm with his little finger, and sprinkled it all on the butterfly-like phoenix pattern on his left forearm.

The pattern on the shrine maiden's body is called "witch tears", which represents the gift of witch Sumire's love for the world.

Xie Wuyi kissed the butterfly wings lightly, knelt on the ground, spread his hands flat, and quietly waited for the waiter to ask.

Sure enough, the waiter's voice rang out in the empty hall.

"Where did the shrine maiden come from?"

This was a very important step in the witch ceremony, and Xie Wuyi straightened up and placed Qingdie's hand in the palm of the waiter's hand.

"The wind and clouds are moving, and the heavens are sending fire gaps."

It means that there are variables in the world, and Wu Jin ordered her to be born from the fire.

"Butterfly?"

This is to ask the witch's butterfly if she has awakened, and if she is ready to go to the gods and order the wind and rain. Xie Wuyi's right hand went straight to the center of his eyebrows, and replied, "It's like a violet", indicating that according to Wu Jin's meaning, she was ready.

The waiter withdrew his hand, stepped back and stood beside Xie Wuyi, clasping his hands together.

"Please sacrifice it."

Each shrine maiden must be recognized by the witch, and the new shrine maiden must be sacrificed to the highest standards, and if the witch agrees, the bell will be ringed to tell the world. Xie Wuyi straightened his waist, held his breath, and said in his mouth:

"Wu Jin'an.

Today, with the message of the cangmu, the ode of smoke and clouds, the female Yi worships the violet, and sacrifices to the body:

The sun and the moon are shining, and the night is bright in the east;

Qiankun is looking forward, and the north is in the dark.

……”

After the sacrificial words were recited, Xie Wuyi knelt motionless, waiting for the arrival of the "oracle".

Xie Wuyi is indeed a fake witch, but these process rituals are well documented. She once worshipped Hua Feidu's best friend Ti Jiang as a teacher, and Ti Jiang taught her things about divination and sacrifice and how to pretend to be a witch. However, Ti Jiang is mysterious and her whereabouts have always been erratic, and Xie Wuyi has not heard from her for a long time.

She closed her eyes and thought about Tijiang's appearance over and over again.

"Xiaowei, do you know, the world looks bright everywhere, but there will always be dirt where the sun doesn't shine."

"Some people chase the light, there will be people who chase the darkness, and the folk temples are all the same, they come for profit, and they disperse for profit. And Wu Jin just wants to dispel the darkness and return the world to light. ”

"Xiao Wei, if you want to be a shrine maiden, you must remember this. Thy smoke may only be a martyr of light. ”

……

There was a heavy sound of gold and stone above the Leaning Moon Hall, Xie Wuyi hurriedly stood up, and the waiter bowed down to her. A deep and distant voice resounded through the hall, as if it came from the ethereal sky, and as if it was about to rush to the vast sea.

"Sumire Ann."

Xie Wuyi stroked the smoke in his hand and replied, "Wu Jin Rong'an." ”

The bell rang thirty-six times, and the waiter bowed to her again.

"Please come and go freely."

Waiting for the waiter to leave, Xie Wuyi exhaled slowly.

She passed this level, and from now on, she is a witch recognized by Wu Jin and Da Yu Siwu.

The hall was filled with cool incense, which seemed to be able to condense in Xie Wuyi's eyes, like a sweet spring for a while, like a bright moon for a while, and her eyes were always looking ahead despite the fire behind her.

During the whole process, Princess Chu knelt on the ground motionless. After a short time, after she finished worshipping, she stood up and exchanged a few words with Xie Wuyi, and then made a "please" gesture and led her into an inner room in the side hall.

Xie Wuyi's feet froze, but he didn't expect Xiao Yu to be inside.

Before going out, Xiao Wei gave Xie Wuyi a hint, and she thought that Xiao Yun was not good at speaking directly, so Princess Chu invited her.

Also, if Xiao Yu wants to see her, it is logical for Princess Chu to come forward to meet her. It seems that the ceremony of acknowledging the shrine maiden just now was his acquiescence.

He's helping her, why?

Before Xie Wuyi could salute and greet her, Xiao Yu bypassed her and shook Princess Chu's hand comfortingly. Princess Chu smiled faintly and retreated.

Only Xie Wuyi and Xiao Yu were left in the room, and Xie Wuyi was about to speak when he raised his hand to stop him.

"According to the laws of our dynasty, witches can not worship the royal family."

Just like when he was in Jingzhao Yin's Mansion, Xiao Yu's pale face could not show any expression, but Xie Wuyi already understood what he meant. She bent her knees and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness invited him in the name of Wu Jin, so naturally he will allow Wu Jin to test the identity of the concubine first." It's just that if His Royal Highness wants to know something, he can be summoned directly, and the concubine doesn't dare not answer, so there is no need to meet in Zhaojiantai. ”

Xiao Yu smiled rarely, "Why, is the witch very afraid to come to Zhao Jintai?" ”

Xie Wuyi frowned slightly, and suddenly felt that his head was big.

One by one, can't you talk well?

Before Xie Wuyi could find a suitable reason, Xiao Yu's next sentence came immediately.

"This king is just following the witch's way." Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Actually, you can also see Fan Keyu directly, there is no need to trick him into the temple." ”

Xie Wuyi was standing with his sleeves closed, and when he heard this, the fingers in his sleeves couldn't help but twist together fiercely. In an almost natural movement, her right thumb pressed against her left wrist.

He knew about the Guanyin Temple and knew that she had met Fan Keyu.

Did Xiao Wei tell him?

Xiao Yu looked down at Xie Wuyi condescendingly, and said coldly: "For the sake of the sixth brother, give up what you have to do." ”

Hearing him point out his purpose so bluntly, indicating that there was still room for bargaining, Xie Wuyi was not so nervous. She looked at Xiao Yu without fear, and smiled calmly: "Your Highness's words are not understandable. ”

Those eyebrows and eyes are so clean, but the more you look inside, the more people feel that there is an abyss hidden inside, and the bottom is unreachable.

It was clear that he and Xiao Wei had nothing to do with each other, but Xiao Yu suddenly felt that the two of them were very similar.

The same deviant, the same against the sky.

Xiao Yu's eyebrows moved slightly, and he turned around and said, "Come and play a game of chess with this king." ”

The topic turned abruptly. Xie Wuyi was not good at playing chess, but Xiao Yu had no choice but to speak, and she couldn't refuse. The two sat at the table opposite each other, and Xiao Yu settled down first and did not let her.

"In July of the 27th year of Tianwu, a fishing boat capsized on Yu Shui, and because the war did not stop, there was no time to search and rescue, and two women on board fell into the water and disappeared.

"In January of the 28th year of Tianwu, a clerk in the rear military camp of Qiongchuan disappeared for a whole day, and after being found, he had no memory of what happened on this day.

"In August, Hezhou reported that the two snitches broke into the Assassin's Mansion and retreated, and nothing was lost in the Assassin's Mansion.

"In June of the twenty-ninth year of Tianwu, Xie Jiuniang, who had been ill for a long time in Luzhou, recovered from a serious illness, and the sixth brother was attacked in the Guanyin Temple and was rescued by Xie Jiuniang, who was very skilled.

"In July, Xie Jiuniang encountered a kidnapper on the way back to Beijing with her brother, saw through the trick and outwitted the two."

"This king has always had a question, I don't know if the witch can solve this king's doubts." The chess pieces in Xiao Yu's hand clicked on the chessboard, and Xie Wuyi's heart trembled inexplicably.

The second time, she sincerely hoped that Xiao Wei could be by her side.

Xiao Yu didn't see it, and his voice turned extremely gloomy, so that the candlelight in this room was dimmed, "Why did Xie Jiuniang, who should have died a long time ago, suddenly change her temperament, why are more than a dozen dead soldiers who can blend into Pinglin Yuan not her opponents, and what did she do to the princess of the sixth brother?" ”

Xie Wuyi listened to Xiao Yu tell her and Hua Feidu's whereabouts in the past two years and the identity of Xie Jiuniang, and even knew how many assassinations she had encountered, and her palms were sweating. But she still held on, her face did not change, and her hands were not messed up at all.

Xiao Yu quietly observed Xie Wuyi's expression, and couldn't help nodding in approval: "Being able to roam the rivers and lakes for so many years, and still being able to run around with the stigma of conspiring against the crime of rebellion and the case of my father, the witch is really a character." ”

He paused, squeezing the chess piece with two fingers and slicing it past his cheek.

"Or, this king should call you - Qiao Wei."
