Chapter 891: Self-inflicted

On the fifth day of October, Luoyang City.

"I've seen the Breeze Alliance Master!"

In the morning, more than a dozen carriages slowly stopped in front of King Xian's mansion. When the guards saw the dusty breeze coming out of the carriage, they all lifted their spirits and hurried down the steps to greet each other respectfully.

Xianwangfu and Wudang have always had a close relationship. In the past, Qingfeng was both Luo Tianjin's master and his father-in-law, so he kept coming and going all year round. Now that Luo Tianjin is not here, Xie Xuan is nominally in charge of the overall situation in the Xianwang Mansion, but in fact, Ling Xiaoxiao is the master behind the scenes.

Because of this, the relationship between the Xianwang Mansion and Wudang has become even closer, and Qingfeng's status in the mansion is even more transcendent than when Luo Tianjin was alive.

In fact, there have long been rumors in the rivers and lakes that the nominal owner of the Xianwang Mansion is Xie Xuan, and the controller behind it is Ling Xiaoxiao. But in fact, the people who can really influence the life and death of the Xianwang Mansion are ...... But it is the breeze far away in Wudang.

When you think about it, it makes sense. After all, after Luo Tianjin's death, the reason why the Xianwang Mansion did not go into decay was because of Qingfeng and Wudang's backing.

"Where's Madame?" said Yan Bugui, who came out of the carriage behind him and asked the guards, "Is it in the mansion?"

"Usually at this hour, the lady is in the childe's room. Su Tang spoke first, "Qingfeng Alliance Master, do you want me to send someone to ......?"

"No need, the old man also wants to see Xuan'er. ”

After saying that, Qingfeng did not wait for everyone to respond, nor did he need others to guide the way, he stepped up the steps and strode into the Xianwang Mansion. Looking at his commanding posture and familiar posture, it seems that he has regarded the Xianwang Mansion as his own territory.

Murong Bai, Deng Quan, Luo Qi, Lin Fangda and others rushed to hear the news, Qingfeng greeted them, but they didn't even say hello, they hurriedly walked through the courtyard and disappeared into the inner house without looking back. Leaving a group of disciples of the Xianwang Mansion who were at a loss to stand in place, looking at each other, so not embarrassed.

"Bang, bang, bang......"

"Squeak!"

Knocking on the door perfunctorily, before the people in the room could answer, the breeze had pushed the door in, turned around and slammed the door tightly.

"Bastard! who...... Daddy?"

Seeing the breeze, Ling Xiaoxiao, who was about to be angry, couldn't help but be stunned, and spit out half of the reprimand and stopped abruptly.

At this moment, she was sitting on the edge of the bed wiping the cheeks of the unconscious Luo Hongxuan.

Today's Luo Hongxuan can almost be described as "out of phase", he has been in a coma in bed for more than a year, and he has long since lost the grace and grace of the year, and the jade tree is in the wind. Today, he is skinny and skewed, with a face like ash, bloodless lips, and even his hair has become a withered and sparse "weed". The appearance of the "living dead" who lingers and breathes like a gossamer makes people feel compassion and can't bear to look at it directly.

"Xiaoxiao ......"

After the breeze entered the room, he walked slowly and softly, walked to the side of the bed with a solemn face, looked at the skinny Luo Hongxuan and the haggard Ling Xiaoxiao, and a pair of old eyes couldn't help but have a strong sense of sadness.

Seeing the breeze, it was like seeing her own backbone, Ling Xiaoxiao, who was at peace in front of people and silently drinking tears behind people, couldn't help but have a sour nose, and her eyes were gradually covered with a layer of tears.

"Xiaoxiao, Xuan'er...... How is it?" Qingfeng stared at Luo Hongxuan, who was motionless, with a frown, and said in a low voice, "For the thousand-year-old Lingzhi that my father sent last time...... Can it be used?"

"Of course it works, it's just ...... Recovery doesn't happen overnight. Ling Xiaoxiao put the wet wipes in her hand back into the basin and squeezed out a smile towards the worried breeze, "A few days ago, I saw Xuan'er's eyelids trembling, and Lang Zhong said that maybe it was a precursor to waking up, let's add some ginseng supplements in time to help him nourish his essence and accumulate blood, and strengthen his foundation." ”

"This is a great thing!" Qingfeng said happily, "For my father, I will immediately order someone to send some more heavenly treasures, you don't have to save, just take the essence and use the best." ”

"Thank you, Dad......"

Looking at the loving breeze in her eyes, Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't hold back the sourness in her heart anymore, and got up and threw herself into his arms and sobbed, whimpering incessantly.

"Silly girl, you are my father's dearest person in the world, what are you being polite about?" Qingfeng caressed Ling Xiaoxiao's back, sighing again and again, "Xiaoxiao, you and Dad have a heartfelt word, now you ...... Do you regret your decision......? Cannibalism with Tianjin?"

Just this word, Ling Xiaoxiao's body trembled suddenly, with tears in her eyes, but her attitude was still stubborn: "I didn't regret it before, I don't regret it now, and I won't regret it in the future!" At that time, I was like fire and water with him, and there was no room for maneuver, so I could only strike first, otherwise, ...... My fate will only be worse than today's. ”

"Tianjin is dead, Xuan'er is so ill, and Yu'er is depressed, you are struggling to support the huge family business of King Xian's Mansion, it's really ...... Not easy. ”

"I want nothing more than Xuan'er to heal quickly. Ling Xiaoxiao wiped away her tears and choked up, "I am now guarding the family business for him, no matter how hard and tired it is, it is worth it." When he is healed...... So I gave him the mansion of the virtuous king. At that time, I will be able to live a little easier and more comfortable. ”

"I hope Xuan'er wakes up soon. The breeze came from it, and the tone was extremely bitter, "so as not to ...... Extraneous branches. ”

"Extraneous branches?" Ling Xiaoxiao noticed a hint of strangeness through the breeze's melancholy eyes, and said suspiciously, "What is Dad worried about? Could it be that there are still people who refuse to give up and dare to attack the idea of my Xianwang Mansion?"

"The world is impermanent, and my father is not worried about external enemies, but only about disasters. ”

"This ......," Ling Xiaoxiao was stunned, "What does Dad mean...... Is there someone in the Xian Wang's Mansion plotting against him?"

"What happened in Lin'an, you must already know. Qingfeng avoided Ling Xiaoxiao's doubts, and his words became more and more indignant, "This time I went out for my father and joined forces with the court to deal with Liu Xunyi, I thought it was foolproof, but the result was ...... But let him escape death again. Do you know who is the person who rescued Liu Xunyi in Lin'an?"

Looking at the unwilling breeze, Ling Xiaoxiao frowned slightly and shook her head slowly.

"It's Xun Qin!"

"Xun Qin?" Ling Xiaoxiao was taken aback, "How can it be ......?"

"To be exact...... It was the King of Shaoqin who sent someone to rescue Liu Xunyi. ”

"This ......" Qingfeng's bluntness made Ling Xiaoxiao uneasy, "Xun Qin has already fled back to the Western Regions, how can she appear in Lin'an? Even if the King of Shaoqin ordered her to go and return, she shouldn't be involved with Liu Xunyi......

"When the Privy Counsellor told me everything, the Father was equally confused. I even suspect that the King of Shaoqin rescued Liu Xunyi for ...... Get revenge on us. ”

"Take revenge on us?" Ling Xiaoxiao puzzled, "Why?"

"Because we ...... Tianjin," Qingfeng suddenly felt that Ling Xiaoxiao's eyes darkened, so he hurriedly changed his words, "We indirectly sabotaged the plan of the Shaoqin King to rebel in the Central Plains, and it is normal for him to have a grudge against us. ”

"This ......," Ling Xiaoxiao hesitated, "Even so, what does it have to do with Liu Xunyi?"

"On the seventh day of the lunar month last year, Liu Xunyi witnessed us with his own eyes...... Do everything. And he is also one of the few people who knows the truth, but is not of the same mind as us. ”

"Wait!" Ling Xiaoxiao's mind changed and she hurriedly interrupted, "No! Before rescuing Liu Xunyi, how could the Shaoqin King know about the seventh day of the lunar month last year? If there was another person who revealed the news, and the Shaoqin King already knew everything in advance, why did he bother to rescue Liu Xunyi again? Do you want to find one more witness...... Pointing out that the King of Shaoqin is not an official government, why does he need all the human and material evidence? Thinking about it in this way, it is simply superfluous and unnecessary for him to take the risk of rescuing Liu Xunyi. Unless...... King Shaoqin counted on Liu Xunyi to avenge himself, but this was a big joke. Don't forget, Liu Xunyi is now a street rat that everyone shouts and beats, and it is difficult for a mud bodhisattva to cross the river himself, so how can he have the leisure to help the Shaoqin King? Even if the Shaoqin King wants to cultivate his own power in the Central Plains, he should also find some hermits who are inconspicuous and do not show water, how dare he look for Liu Xunyi who is on the cusp of the storm?

"Well said!" Qingfeng cast an approving glance at Ling Xiaoxiao, "This matter has been pondered repeatedly by my father, and I think that the reason why King Shaoqin rescued Liu Xunyi is definitely not to explore the truth about the seventh day of the lunar month last year, nor to take revenge and vent his anger. ”

Ling Xiaoxiao looked at the pretended profound breeze with a blank face, and said in disbelief: "Is it possible...... What is the little-known relationship between King Shaoqin and Liu Xunyi?"

"That's right! There is something to do with it, but not with the young Qin king. "Qingfeng Dao," said another person when the father met with the privy councillor. This person's name is Qin Wei, and he has known Liu Xunyi since childhood and has a great friendship. As a father, he learned from him that Liu Xunyi had a lot of private affairs. There are some of them...... Ling Wei's father has a lot of thoughts, and his heart is extremely unsteady. ”

"What's the matter?"

"I remember that when Tianjin was alive, he repeatedly sent people to find out the details of Liu Xunyi. Qingfeng recalled, "The results were checked and checked, and they were all fake. ”

"At that time, there was a court behind Liu Xunyi's cover, and Brother Jin was also ...... Helpless. ”

"Qin Wei told me that Liu Xunyi has nothing to do with Jiangling Fanhumen. The place where they live is called Xinglin Village, which was hit by a plague more than 20 years ago. The whole village died and fled, Liu Xunyi and Qin Wei escaped by luck, and they have been wandering around, begging for food to make a living, and finally met by Zhao Yuan on the streets of Qianzhou, and brought back to Tianji Pavilion to raise adults. ”

"I see. Ling Xiaoxiao suddenly realized and sighed with emotion, "No wonder Liu Xunyi is loyal to Zhao Yuan, no matter how Brother Jin treats him, he can't shake his will......"

"What's interesting is that it wasn't only Qin Wei who wandered with Liu Xunyi at the beginning, but also ...... A girl. ”

"Girl?"

Qin Wei told me that the girl's name is Liu Xunyu, and she is Liu Xunyi's own sister...... Twin sisters. When the word "twins" was spoken, Qingfeng deliberately accentuated his tone and said secretly, "Originally, the three of them depended on each other and wandered together, but when they arrived in Luzhou, the girl accidentally got lost. Liu Xunyi, who lost his beloved sister, has been looking for many years like crazy, but Liu Xunyu has evaporated like the world, and there is no news. Until Liu Xunyi infiltrated the rivers and lakes on Zhao Yuan's secret order, a 'clue' related to Liu Xunyu...... Fang has just gradually surfaced. ”
