Chapter 966: Remembering the Old Grace
"Bang!"
When Xie Xuan revealed the secret buried in his heart to Murong Baihe, Murong Bai, who heard the book of heaven, was shocked beyond words, and his shock was beyond words. I felt that my brain was blank, my eyes were gorgeous, my scalp was numb, my back was cold, my abdomen was tight, and my legs were weak...... One staggered back in his chair, staring blankly ahead, unable to respond for a moment.
"Do you understand now why Qingfeng and Ling Xiaoxiao are suspicious of me, and why do I keep being perfunctory about chasing and killing Liu Xunyi?"
Under Xie Xuan's questioning, Murong Bai, who was in a state of ape, gradually woke up from his trance. The complicated and tangled eyes stared at Xie Xuan, whose face was sinking like water, and he wanted to speak countless times, but he couldn't resist the shock in his heart after all, so he didn't say a word.
"In the past, I didn't tell you the truth because the time had not come, and I was worried that you would be impulsive and bad. Now that great things are ahead, I need your help. The top and bottom of the Xianwang Mansion were squeezed out by Ling Xiaoxiao and bought by them, and only a few people were still thinking about the old favor of the mansion master. Xie Xuan said indignantly, "Among these people, there are people who are really worthy of my trust and have the ability to help me...... It's just you and Deng Quan. ”
"This ......"
"Murong Bai, I'll give you a chance to choose now. Xie Xuan's thoughts were solemn and righteous, "No matter how you choose today, I won't blame you." But...... Limited to today. Because once you make a choice, there is no room for turning back. ”
"What choice?" Murong Bai, who was unable to give up, subconsciously answered.
"Or, we'll be in the same boat with me, life and death. Do everything you can to bring down Qingfeng's father and daughter and avenge the lord of the mansion. Or, you kill me now and hand over my head to Ling Xiaoxiao in exchange for the glory and wealth of the rest of my life. Xie Xuan said without humility or arrogance, "If I die in your hands, I Xie Xuan...... Regrets. ”
"Since you know my character, why do you bother to use such a childish agitation method?" Murong Bai's eyes froze, and Xie Xuan looked at each other, and said word by word, "I only ask you one thing, Liu Xunyi him...... It's really the flesh and blood of the lord of the house......"
"What? Don't you believe me? Xie has followed the lord of the mansion for more than 20 years from birth and death, when did he ever have selfish intentions? This matter is not trivial, how dare I play with it? Besides, what good will it do me to lie to you and make enemies of Qingfeng and Ling Xiaoxiao? If I am willing to bow down to them, I can sit comfortably on the throne of the lord of the Xianwang Mansion and live happily, and I will have fine clothes and food for the rest of my life, so why should I risk life and death to do such an extreme thing? I did this because I thought of the past kindness of the lord of the mansion, and I didn't want him to be unable to rest under the Nine Springs......"
"You swear!" Murong Bai was expressionless and aggressive, "Swear poison!"
"Xie swore to the sky, if there is half a lie just now, teach me to cut off my children and grandchildren, five thunders will hit the top, there will be no corpse, and the stench will be left for 10,000 years!"
"Shhh
Seeing Xie Xuan make a poisonous oath without hesitation, Murong Bai's heart seemed to be clutched by someone, his eyes suddenly changed, and he gasped at the same time.
"This ...... How is this ...... How could it be ......"
"Bang!"
After muttering for a long time, Murong Bai, who realized it later, was furious and smashed the teacup on the table with one palm.
"It's really 'knowing people and knowing faces, but not hearts', ma'am...... Ling Xiaoxiao seems to be virtuous and virtuous, but she is as ruthless as a snake and scorpion in her bones. She...... She dared to murder her husband, it was simply unhumane, and it was not as good as a pig and a dog. I...... I, Murong Bai, swear to the heavens, if I don't end this hatred for the lord of the mansion, I swear not to be a man!"
With that, Murong Bai, who was full of murderous intent, suddenly got up and strode towards the door.
"Where are you going?"
"Kill people to pay for their lives, and repay debts! I want to avenge the lord of the mansion and be ashamed of the 'young master'......"
"Stop!"
Seeing that Murong Bai was arrogant, Xie Xuan hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed his arm, and reprimanded: "Regardless of whether you can kill Ling Xiaoxiao or not, even if you let you succeed...... You can't rehabilitate Zhaoxue for Liu Xunyi, but instead bear the charge of killing the lord in vain. After all, Ling Xiaoxiao is the widow of the mansion lord and the daughter of the Central Plains Martial Arts Alliance, if you dare to touch a single hair of her now, it is tantamount to being an enemy of the Central Plains Martial Arts, which will inevitably lead to death. ”
"I'm not afraid of death, and I don't care about those false ......"
"Don't be angry!" Xie Xuan's face sank, and he said angrily, "Listen to what you mean, am I greedy for life and afraid of death? Do I care about false fame? Hugh must forget that Ling Xiaoxiao is not only the widow of the mansion master, but also the mother of Hongxuan and Ning Yu, and the master mother of the disciples of the Xianwang Mansion who respect the gods like gods." You just want to be happy for a while, in case there is a big mess and the Xianwang Mansion is disturbed, what face do you have to face the mansion master under the Nine Springs? What face does you face Hongxuan and Ning Yu? What face does you face the disciples of the Xianwang Mansion? What face does you have to face the people of the world?"
"This ......"
Xie Xuan's words were so affectionate that Murong Bai, who was dizzy, gradually calmed down: "What you said makes sense, I ...... You can not kill Ling Xiaoxiao for the time being. But Liu Xunyi is in danger right now, and we can't just watch him have an accident......"
"You sit down first!"
Xie Xuan dragged the worried Murong Bai back to the table and patiently explained: "Liu Xunyi will be handed over to me, and I promise that nothing will happen to him." As a matter of urgency, I have two more important things for you to do. ”
"What's the matter?"
"First, he personally went to the Sanyi Gang and told his three righteous brothers the truth about the murder of the mansion master, so that they could immediately lead people to come. When the heroes of the world gather in the Xian Wang's Mansion, I hope they will stand up and uphold justice in the name of 'Brother Xian'. ”
"It's not difficult to do this!" Murong Bai agreed without thinking, "What's the second thing?" v3 Academy
"Second, find an opportunity to tell Deng Quan about your and my conversation today. He is as deeply favored by the lord as we are, and I believe that black and white will not be confused. Xie Xuan groaned, "I remember that the lord of the mansion ordered the two of you to secretly train the 'Imperial Forest Army', and I planned to join forces with the young Qin king when I started the army, but unexpectedly...... I would like to ask, where is the 'Royal Guards' you trained in the beginning?"
"This ......" Murong Bai was stunned for a moment, and hesitated, "After the mansion master's accident, the 'Imperial Forest Army' group of dragons had no leader, and they were scattered as birds and beasts. ”
"That'...... Is there a way for you to reconvene them?" Xie Xuan asked reluctantly, "If you can, how many people can be recalled?"
"At that time, there were indeed many people who were reluctant to leave, and there were also many people who made a promise that they would return if they were recalled. Murong Bai frowned and recalled carefully, "But you also know the actual situation, on the night of the mansion master's accident...... none of the eight hundred most elite soldiers in the 'Royal Forest Army' were spared, and all of them were killed in battle. As for the others...... I expect it will be very difficult to recall 30%. ”
"Sancheng?" Xie Xuan pondered, "Is it about a thousand people?"
"Almost. ”
"That's it!" Xie Xuan made a decision on the spot, "Three achievements and three percent are better than being isolated." ”
"What do you mean......"
"Let Deng Quan do everything possible to recall the 'Royal Forest Army' and secretly settle down on the outskirts of the city. ”
"It's easy to recruit people, but it's ...... to raise people A lot of money is needed. Right now, the account books and gold books of King Xian's Mansion are all in the husband's ...... Holding it in Ling Xiaoxiao's hands, we can't take out a penny. ”
"Lei Zhen has brought countless gold and silver treasures from outside the gate, you can ask him for help. ”
Murong Bai asked suspiciously, "This Master Lei...... Is it reliable?"
"He is a person from Xun Qin, and Liu Xunyi has repeatedly escaped death thanks to Xun Qin. Xie Xuan replied, "I'm not sure if he's reliable, but at least...... He won't harm Liu Xunyi now, and he is in the same camp as us. ”
"I understand!" Murong Bai rubbed the pieces of the teacup repeatedly with his hand, and couldn't help but sigh again and again, "Until this moment, I still can't believe that the ruthless person is actually the closest person around me, but the one who rescues him is an outsider who I don't know......"
"Not only do you not dare to believe it, even the lord of the mansion has suffered from it......" Recalling the past, Xie Xuan couldn't help but feel sad.
"When are you going to Luzhou?" Murong Bai discarded distracting thoughts and changed his words.
"Three days later, Yan Bugui and I led people to Luzhou. As long as I leave the Xianwang Mansion, Ling Xiaoxiao's precautions against you will definitely be relaxed. When the time comes, you and Deng Quan will see the opportunity to act. ”
"You don't have to worry about us, you should worry about yourself. Murong Bai said worriedly, "The wild goose does not return is the eyeliner that Ling Xiaoxiao has placed beside you, and she will definitely do everything she can to find out the truth after arriving in Luzhou." ...... the Gan family's side"
"Don't worry! I sent someone Pegasus to report the news last night, and Master Gan and I are like brothers, and I believe that it will be arranged properly. Xie Xuan soothed, "The turbulent times are turbulent, and tigers and wolves are rampant. However, in the rivers and lakes of intrigue and profit...... There are still some 'old antiques' who have always stood up for morality. ”
"That's very good. ”
"It's rare that Ling Xiaoxiao is very fond of Huan'er, you have to make good use of it. Xie Xuan smiled slyly and teased, "For so many years, she has been obsessed with you, which is extremely rare." It's a pity that the falling flowers are intentional, and the flowing water is ruthless. How could the famous 'snow-clothed silver Jiao' fall in love with a girl who pours tea and water?"
However, in the face of Xie Xuan's ridicule, Murong Bai turned a deaf ear. But seeing him get up slowly, he left Xie Xuan with a meaningful look, and turned to walk towards the door.
"Go to Luzhou, be careful. ”
"It's the same with you, I know your mind is messy at the moment, but remember not to show it to outsiders. ”
"I heard that Miss has been ill for a long time, so I ...... I want to see her. After all, she's the most innocent ......"
"The most innocent, but also the most helpless. At the mention of Luo Ningyu, Xie Xuan couldn't help but look dark, and said bitterly, "Although I feel very distressed about Ning Yu, ...... I still want to persuade you, it's best not to see her. ”
"Why?" Murong Bai stopped in front of the door and asked without looking back, "Are you afraid that I will have compassion for Ling Xiaoxiao because of her?"
"No, I'm afraid you'll be seen by her and her judgment will be affected. ”
"How do you say this?" Murong Bai was confused and didn't know what it tasted like.
"Ning Yu is thoughtful, and he often understands people's hearts, even me...... I can't hide it from her. Xie Xuan said helplessly, "She has been ill for a long time because her heart knot has not been resolved, and the root cause is that she doesn't know who she should help. In fact, this kind of result is undesirable for us. After all, it is impossible for us to force a girl with a good nature to murder her own mother and grandfather. Therefore, she could not have been more neutral for the time being because of her depression, which could not have been better for us. If you rush in, I'm afraid you'll upset her inner balance. What if it shakes her mind...... Haven't we fallen short?"
"Xie Xuan, Ning Yu was kind enough to save you, but you calculated her everywhere, it's really ...... Cruel and ruthless. ”
"I admit that I am cruel and ruthless, but in order to avenge the 'first master', and to help the 'young master' rehabilitate Zhaoxue, let him smoothly inherit the mantle of the mansion master, so that the incense of the Luo family can continue. I'm Xie Xuan...... Even if the bones are broken, the stench will not be hesitated for 10,000 years. ”
