Chapter 403: Two Peach and Three Soldiers
"Sixth Master, after all, the Lord of the Willow Gate is the Lord of the Shocking Gate, you do this...... It's a bit impersonal. ”
"Stop!" Before Liao Chuan's words fell, Huang Yulang's face suddenly sank, and he scolded, "When will it be your turn to speak here?"
After that, Huang Yulang cast his sharp gaze straight at Liu Xunyi, who was hesitant, and said word by word: "Liu Xunyi, don't toast and don't eat and drink......"
"Wait a minute!"
Suddenly, Luo Ningyu's voice came from outside the crowd. Immediately after, she and Lin Fang hurriedly pushed away everyone and squeezed closer.
"Miss?" Huang Yulang was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously, "Why are you here?"
"Uncle Huang Liu, why are you making things difficult for Liu Xunyi?" Luo Ning asked without answering, and his tone was very blunt.
Huang Yulang frowned, and said unhappily: "It's not difficult, it's just an order." ”
"Uncle Huang Liu, don't blame me for being disrespectful. Luo Ningyu said indignantly, "Dad asked you to purge the traitors, so that the disciples of the Xianwang Mansion can be close to each other, and they have a deep brotherhood." It's not for you to make the house a miasma, and the chickens and dogs are restless. You will try this today and that tomorrow, and there is not a single piece of ironclad evidence, but the number of disciples who died unjustly is increasing day by day. Now, you actually pointed the finger at Liu Xunyi, do you know that he is the most important person in my father? Dad has intended to promote him to the black fan, and take charge of the next three doors, but you are looking for trouble with him, what do you mean?"
Seeing that Huang Yulang's face was getting more and more gloomy, Lin Fangda hurriedly grabbed Luo Ningyu's arm and said in a low voice: "Ningyu, don't say a word......
"Isn't what I said wrong?" Luo Ningyu shook off Lin Fangda's hand and said bluntly, "Di Mo is guilty, and it's not a pity to die." But we should not treat everyone in the house as a spy because of a traitor. Put the cart before the horse, because of the small loss of the big, if you continue to check like this, the Xianwang Mansion will be in chaos!"
Huang Yulang looked at the angry Luo Ningyu meaningfully, and then looked at Liu Xunyi, who was full of gratitude, and suddenly realized: "Speaking of which, Miss wants to keep Liu Xunyi......"
"Yes!" Luo Ning said bluntly, "If you want to check him, check me first!"
At this point, Luo Ningyu ignored the dissuasion of Lin Fangda and others, and quickly rushed to Liu Xunyi's body, opening his arms to protect him.
"Whispering ......"
Liu Xunyi looked at the thin and firm back in front of him, and his gratitude was speechless.
"This matter is my father's fault at all, and I will never let him be wrong again and again. Luo Ning said without looking back, "Don't worry! With me here, no one dares to touch a single hair of you today." ”
"Miss, don't embarrass me!" Huang Yulang said angrily.
"Sixth Uncle Huang wants to deal with Liu Xunyi, unless he steps over my corpse. Luo Ningyu was resolute and refused to give an inch.
Huang Yulang was entangled in his heart, set his eyes on Liu Xunyi, and said in a deep voice: "Liu Xunyi, a manly husband should stand up to the sky and dare to act." If you really have a clear conscience, don't hide behind the young lady and be a turtle with a shrunken head. ”
"Uncle Huang Liu, you don't want to force him to ......"
Before Luo Ning finished speaking, Liu Xunyi's hand suddenly put on her shoulder, and said softly: "Ning Yu, I understand your kindness." But the sixth master is ordered to do things, and you and I, as people from the Xianwang Mansion, no one can ignore the rules. I asked myself if I had done anything to be sorry for the lord of the house, and I believe that the sixth master will definitely return my innocence. ”
"But ......"
"Don't worry!"
Without waiting for Luo Ning's words to persuade again, Liu Xunyi had gently pushed him away. took the initiative to unload his sword, and under the complicated and helpless gaze of everyone, he let the black-clothed disciple step forward and tie him up.
"Count you as acquaintances!" Huang Yulang snorted coldly, "Take it away!"
"Wait!" Luo Ning exclaimed, "I'm going to intercede with my father now and ask him to come forward to stop this farce." Before that, Uncle Huang must not torture Liu Xunyi!"
"This ......"
Luo Ningyu said again: "Please Uncle Huang Liu, for the sake of me being the daughter of King Beixian, and agree to this matter." ”
"Okay!"
Huang Yulang nodded reluctantly: "I promise Miss that I will not punish Liu Xunyi before sunset." If I have not received the order from the lord by the time it gets dark, I will follow the rules. At that time, I hope that Miss will not be difficult again. ”
"It's a deal!"
Luo Ningyu happily agreed, and then walked to Liu Xunyi's side, a pair of big watery eyes full of affection and righteousness, Qianqianyu gently stroked Liu Xunyi's chest, and said word by word: "I swear, I will never let you have anything." Wait for me!"
In the face of Luo Ningyu's deep affection, Liu Xunyi's thoughts were surging, and he had mixed feelings. He didn't answer, but nodded slightly.
"Lin Fangda, let's go!"
With a greeting, Luo Ningyu couldn't wait to go straight to the backyard.
......
There was no word for a while, and it was nearly dusk.
Luo Tianjin turned a deaf ear to Luo Ningyu's repeated requests to see her, and she knelt down outside the back hall, kneeling down from noon to evening, motionless for three hours, and her legs had long been unconscious.
During this time, Lin Fangda kept kneeling beside her, also not moving at all, not saying a word.
During this period, Xie Xuan, Su Tang, Luo Qi and others took turns to persuade her, but Luo Ningyu's stubbornness was deep-rooted, and even though others wore out her mouth, she was still unmoved.
In the back hall, Luo Tianjin, who was stunned, sat quietly at the table, holding a volume of poetry in his hand, his eyes were misty, and his face was full of sorrow.
This collection of poems was written by Luo Hongxuan when he was a child and was given to Luo Tianjin as a gift. Although the handwriting is twisted and crooked, it is extremely untidy, but Luo Tianjin has always regarded it as a treasure, and whenever he sees this collection of poems, he will think of Luo Hongxuan's cute appearance when he was a child.
In the past, Luo Hongxuan, who was alive and vigorous, has become a living dead who never wakes up.
His eyes were closed, he was couched, he was getting thinner and thinner, and he was lifeless. In just two months, Luo Hongxuan has become skinny and skinny, almost no longer human-shaped.
Every time he thinks of this, Luo Tianjin is like being trapped in an infernal hell, ten thousand arrows pierce his heart, thousands of ants eat his bones, and the pain is unbearable.
Moreover, at the Dragon Boat Festival banquet, the heroes dispersed unhappily. Although the various sects and factions didn't say much, Luo Tianjin could clearly feel that their relationship with the Xianwang Mansion was no longer as close to each other as before, and there was more or less estrangement between them.
Blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not singular. At this time of internal and external troubles, how could Luo Tianjin not be preoccupied and full of sorrow?
"Squeak!"
With a soft sound, the door opened, and Xie Xuan, who was physically and mentally exhausted, slowly walked into the back hall.
"Mansion master, the young lady has been kneeling outside the door for a while. No matter how much we tried to persuade her, she would not leave......"
It seems that Yu'er is really affectionate to Liu Xunyi. Luo Tianjin replied softly, and then asked, "How is the progress of the purge?"
"Yulang has screened almost all the people up and down in the house. Xie Xuan replied, "Anyone who is suspected will inevitably die." It's just that ......" As for this, Xie Xuan couldn't help but look embarrassed, and he stopped talking.
Luo Tianjin raised his eyebrows and asked, "But what?"
However, after a month of purging, there are very few conclusive spies, and most of the disciples who have been executed are just suspicious. Xie Xuan said bitterly, "Among the spies found, most of them have secret communication with the Mongols, and very few have colluded with other sects. refused to investigate, these 'spies' were all motivated to make money and betray the news of the Xian Wang's Mansion to the outside. Came prepared like Di Mo...... Hardly. ”
"Hardly?" Luo Tianjin heard the clue in Xie Xuan's words, and said suspiciously, "What is almost?"
"There is no one who has conclusive evidence. Suspicious ...... But there is one. ”
"Who?"
"Liu Xunyi. Xie Xuan smiled bitterly, "From the first day he entered the Xianwang Mansion, the mansion master was wary of him. Therefore, the suspicion of Liu Xunyi is actually a repetition of the same old tune, and the key lies in ...... The meaning of the lord of the house. If the lord of the house believes him, there is no suspicion. If the lord of the house does not believe him, he will be suspicious......"
"Heh!" Luo Tianjin chuckled lightly and laughed at himself, "Originally, I already believed in him, but Di Mo's betrayal made me have to re-examine everyone around me. The previous black fan was a mole, and I don't want the new black fan to repeat the mistakes of the past. ”
Xie Xuan's eyes moved, and he said clearly: "That's why the mansion master deliberately cast Liu Xunyi's crime in the merit box, in order to let Yulang check him again?"
"Nope. Luo Tianjin's eyes were sly, and he shook his head and said, "I have repeatedly tested Liu Xunyi, if he would show his feet, he would have been exposed a long time ago." There are only two reasons for this result, one of which is that Liu Xunyi is a gentleman who is frank and has no problems. Second, Liu Xunyi's city is extremely deep, and the camouflage is seamless. No matter which one of them, Yulang could not get any valuable news from him. ”
"In that case, why did the mansion master design to investigate him?" Xie Xuanfei explained, "Could it be that the mansion master doesn't believe Liu Xunyi?"
"If I don't believe him, why bother with it? ”
"That'...... The lord of the mansion believes him?"
In this regard, Luo Tianjin still shook his head.
Seeing this, Xie Xuan was confused and muttered to himself: "I believe it, but I don't believe it...... Believe it or not?"
"I don't know what to do. Luo Tianjin said, "Therefore, I threw this problem to another person and asked her to decide for me whether Liu Xunyi lived or died, whether to go or stay." ”
"Another person?" Xie Xuan frowned and said thoughtfully, "What the mansion master said...... Miss?"
"Exactly! Now Xuan'er has ......" As for this, Luo Tianjin's eyes darkened suddenly, and he changed his words, "Now, I only have one flesh and blood left to be worthy of a big responsibility, and the Xianwang Mansion will definitely be entrusted to her in the future." Therefore, I had to choose for her a husband who was both wise and brave and capable of becoming a great man. In this way, I can keep the family business that I have worked so hard to build. However, before I could decide on a husband for her, she had to reveal her heart as it was. After all, emotional matters should be about fate, not forced. ”
"The mansion master deliberately took the opportunity of the purge to test Miss's heart for Liu Xunyi?" Xie Xuan suddenly realized, "If Miss is infatuated with Liu Xunyi, the mansion owner will reuse Liu Xunyi." If the young lady is indifferent to Liu Xunyi, she will be killed quickly. ”
"That's just one of them. Luo Tianjin said faintly, "Second, I want to take this opportunity to let Liu Xunyi see Yu'er's heart for him, and let him owe Yu'er a great favor, which can be regarded as a match." ”
"If there is a woman who is willing to sacrifice her life to save her, what more can her husband ask for?" Xie Xuan nodded and said, "Liu Xunyi will definitely be moved by the true feelings of the young lady, and then breed feelings." The lord of the mansion kills two birds with one stone, it is really powerful!"
"Not only that, but there are also thirds. Luo Tianjin waved his hand and said, "After more than a month, my goal has been achieved, and it's time for this farce to end." Therefore, I took the opportunity of kneeling and begging to come forward to end the purge, so that everyone in the house would be grateful to her. In this way, it can be regarded as taking on important responsibilities for her in the future and accumulating prestige in advance. ”
"The lord of the mansion is far-sighted and takes precautions, Xie Xuan admires it!"
"Don't worry!" Luo Tianjin's eyes quietly flashed a hint of treachery.
Seeing this, Xie Xuan looked surprised and said in surprise: "What......? And the fourth?"
"Since there is a good thing to promote language and clothes, there is one person who has to guard against it. Luo Tianjin said secretively, "Fourth, I want to take the opportunity to test Xun Qin's attitude towards Liu Xunyi, to see if she cares about Liu Xunyi's life or death, and whether the two of them are as rumored...... Love over time. ”
