Shen Cuttlefish frowned slightly, and whispered in her ear: "Bringing a monk by your side is a burden, how can you break into the rivers and lakes? How can I take revenge?" Bai Xing smiled softly and replied: "You are the eldest son of the Shen family, are you still afraid of a monk? You can't even tolerate him, how can you gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes?"

After that, he turned his head to look at Na Mingjue, and said with a smile: "There is one more thing, we are a horse, we can only bear the foot strength of two people, if you want to walk with us, you can only rely on walking, are you willing?" Bai Xing Tears did not mean to make things difficult, firstly, this is a fact, and secondly, it can also be tempted to test his light skills.

Who knows that Mingjue smiled when he heard this: "It's okay, it's okay, the little monk is not used to riding a horse, and walking is also a kind of practice, and the little monk is willing." The three of them should not be lazy, they are about to set off, who knew that as soon as they turned around, a familiar voice came from behind them: "Everyone, slow down, I don't know if you can take me." ”

Bai Xing Tears turned the horse's head, Mingjue also turned around, Shen Cuttlefish saw the person's appearance clearly, and exclaimed: "Pei Jingnian, Pei Zhutou!" Bai Xing Tears was also slightly stunned, but Mingjue, his face did not change, and he had already bowed down. Pei Jingnian also smiled politely: "Shen Gongzi doesn't have to be like this, I'm no longer a head catcher, so you can still call me Jingnian." ”

"What does this mean?" Bai Xingxian asked cautiously, his eyes full of hostility towards Pei Jingnian. Shen cuttlefish saw that Pei Jingnian was really not wearing the official mansion, only wearing a pitch-black round-necked brocade robe, tied a red belt, and his head full of green silk was also tied behind him with a red rope, carrying an ordinary knife, carrying a heavy burden, leading a white horse, and standing in front of the three of them.

I don't know if it's because Pei Jingnian hid the broken sword and the Golden Lotus Flying Needle in the baggage and handed it over to Shen Cuttlefish, or because of what, Shen Cuttlefish has always had an inexplicable good impression of her, although he didn't believe what she said, but he didn't deeply doubt it.

It turned out that after Shen Cuttlefish Pegasus left the Anhuai Mansion, Na Yan Jie returned to the inner hall to study the five "snow scrolls" left by Shen Cuttlefish. But although he is not a person who practices martial arts, the more he looks at it, the more he feels that something is wrong, so he summoned Pei Jingnian, handed her the pieces of paper and said: "Jingnian, you are a person who practices martial arts, and come to see this scroll in the snow, can you understand one or two?"

Pei Jingnian read the five densely packed "secret notes" written, his face changed slightly, his willow eyebrows tightened, he pondered for a moment, and finally put down the pieces of paper and said: "Forgive my subordinates for bluntly speaking, maybe the subordinates are not skilled in martial arts and lack of qualifications, and the secrets written on them are obscure, extremely awkward, and look meaningless, there is no way to move and luck at all, it is not like a martial arts cheats at all." ”

"Hey. Yan Jie sighed, looked at it carefully for a while, slammed the table, and said angrily, "What a Shen cuttlefish! Dare to play this mansion!" Pei Jingnian hurriedly persuaded: "My lord is angry!"

But Yan Jie trembled with anger, far more indignant than when Shen Cuttlefish hijacked him, his left hand was behind his back, his right hand pointed at the few worthless pieces of broken paper, his beard also trembled, his eyes widened, and his face turned red and said: "This mansion has just seen that this Shen cuttlefish is obviously playing tricks on me! You take a good look, the words separated by a few lines are disassembled and reorganized, what kind of martial arts secret book is there, it is clearly the three-character scripture, the disciple rules and the thousand-character text! He is clearly writing nonsense, distracting us and others!

Pei Jingnian wanted to speak and stopped, his lips moved lightly, but Yan Jie looked at him, so he asked: "Jingnian, what do you want to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Only then did Pei Jingnian pour out the doubts in his heart: "Please forgive your subordinates for bluntly saying that your lord is the Yin of Anhuai Mansion appointed by the Holy Lord today, not a person in the rivers and lakes, why are you obsessed with the snow scroll?"

As soon as these words came out, Yan Jie's face changed drastically, and her cold eyes immediately looked at Pei Jingnian, she was busy talking, knelt down and pleaded: "It's a subordinate who is talkative! "Yan Jie's deal with the Chiyan Valley Lord no one knew except for the two of them, and even Pei Jingnian, who was his confidant, never mentioned a word, just to be careful.

Yan Jie sighed and said, "The blame for this matter is not yours. The government that should tell you will not hide it from you, and if you don't tell you, you don't have to ask more, you just need to know that the snow is very important now, the stakes are very important, and the government must be cautious, if you take a wrong step, it will be an abyss. At that time, it will not be as simple as a black gauze hat, but I am afraid of the life of this mansion, and it will ......"

After that, he put on a sad face again. Pei Jingnian saw it, and immediately said: "Jingnian is willing to be born and die for the adult, in order to repay the adult's kindness! Please command!" Although Pei Jingnian wants to be for the people and the world, he also knows that Yan Jie has secretly done many shady things, but fortunately, he is not hurting people's lives, so he also turns a blind eye.

Besides, Pei Jingnian is a woman after all, if it weren't for Yan Jie's promotion, she was afraid that she would have to pour out her ambition to serve the country on the brocade embroidery in the deep pavilion, and she would regret it for the rest of her life. She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, in order to be able to do something for the people of the world one day, but this is not overnight, she wants to protect herself in the officialdom, get out of the mud without staining, and persist for a long time, sometimes it is inevitable to learn to be flexible.

Otherwise, even if he is a spotless Qing official, he is upright and upright, and he would rather bend than bend, in today's situation, he is afraid that he will not be able to wear a black veil for a few days and will not be able to do much practical work. Pei Jingnian was well aware of this, so he had to follow Yan Jie. Moreover, it is also to repay Yan Jie's kindness.

Yan Jie pondered for a moment, then hurriedly turned around and said: "The snow scroll must still be hidden in the body of the Shen cuttlefish, it has not been burned at all, in the mirror year, this mansion needs you to play a bitter trick, blend into the side of the Shen cuttlefish, deceive his trust, and then find another opportunity to steal the snow scroll." If this happens, the government will reward you heavily!"

Pei Jingnian hugged his fists and bowed: "Please make it clear! Jingnian will never give up! I will definitely complete the task, otherwise I will never come back to see my lord!" Yan Jie hurriedly helped Pei Jingnian up, patted the back of her hand and said earnestly: "I really deserve to be the henchman of this mansion." In this way, you immediately send someone to search for the trace of Shen Cuttlefish, see in which direction he is going, and catch up with him quickly. ”

"Then how can Shen cuttlefish trust me to stay by my side?" asked Pei Jingnian.

Yan Jie thought for a while, stroked his palms and smiled: "You said that when Shen Cuttlefish hijacked the mansion and escaped from the mansion, your guards were unfavorable, and you failed to catch Shen Cuttlefish, and tried to exonerate him, and punished him for several crimes. ”

Yan Jie gave a little order, Pei Jingnian took the order and left, packed his bags, took off his official clothes, changed into regular clothes, and rode a white horse to chase outside the city. But before he could go far, he heard a noise, and seeing that the Bai family seemed to be chasing something, he had a premonition that it might be related to Shen cuttlefish, so he turned over and dismounted, and slowly followed behind them.

Later, I saw the Bai family's blue nose and swollen face, and they hurriedly ran back with a few fainted brothers, and then met the three Shen cuttlefish who had been entangled for a long time and were about to leave.

"Hey, it's a long story, but now I'm cornered, I don't know if the three of you can count me as one more, and we can go through the rivers and lakes together, so that we can take care of it. Pei Jingnian's face was full of sincerity, and he said with his fists clenched. There seemed to be a hint of grief hidden in his eyes.

It's just that Bai Xingxian still didn't want to believe it easily, his eyes rolled up, and he said with a sneer: "I'm afraid that this is not good, Pei Zhutou is a person in the government after all, how can he walk with me and other grass people? Besides, if we don't make it clear, we don't dare to trust Pei Zhutou easily." Please Pei Zhutou Hugh to be surprised, when you go out, you must guard against people. People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. ”

The words were full of hostility, and seeing the two women fighting each other, Shen Cuttlefish couldn't help coughing lightly, and relieved the atmosphere: "Ahem, cough, Pei Zhutou, it's not that we don't believe you, it's just that why you are no longer a headcatcher, I still want to tell." After all, not long ago, you and I almost fought in the Anhuai Mansion. ”

Pei Jingnian smiled when he heard this: "This is natural, if you don't give up, there is a small tea stall in front, for a while, let me explain the ins and outs of this matter to you." Bai Xingxian snorted softly, turned his horse's head proudly, and walked forward. Shen Cuttlefish asked angrily: "Hey, little orange, Pei Zhutou is also from the Yamen, why are you so rude?

"First, she has no clear background and no clear purpose, so how can she be easily believed? Second, she is Yan Jie's confidant, so how can she be easily dismissed? And why do you have to go with us to go through the rivers and lakes? As the so-called desire to harm others, you must not have the heart to prevent others. Third, you said that she was a member of the government, and you also said that you had almost a fight, maybe it was the bitter trick of that Yanjie that sent her to deceive your trust to arrest you! Fourth, if you call Miss Ben a little orange again, believe it or not, I will kick you down!"

Bai Xing's tearful apricot eyes were slightly angry, his face was peachy, his teeth were clenched, and he glanced back at the Shen cuttlefish. Shen cuttlefish agreed with the first three points very much, and nodded again and again. When he heard this fourth point, he laughed out loud and said deliberately: "I don't, I can call you whatever I like to call you, what can you do to me?"

Bai Xingxian took advantage of the moment when he was proud, and suddenly hit a backward elbow blow, the force was extremely heavy, and it hit Shen Cuttlefish's heart, almost knocking him off the horse, coughing again and again, the posture was like vomiting a few taels of blood, and the two hands fluttered weakly twice and rushed forward, hugging Bai Xinghua's shoulders tightly.

The warm embrace behind him clinged to the delicate body, and there were bursts of blush on Bai Xing's tearful pink cheeks, as if she was about to drip blood, biting her lower lip, unable to speak, so she had to let the Shen cuttlefish hold it intentionally or unintentionally.

And Pei Jingnian, who was behind him, also turned on his horse, glanced at Mingjue, who was walking slowly in front, and said politely: "Little Master, why don't you ride a horse with me?"
