Chapter 397: Moonlight
The elders were very efficient, but one day, the five elders had sent someone to pass the message, saying that traces of poison had been found in the tea leaves in the clan room, and that kind of tea was the favorite tea of the Qinglong clan, and there were not a few people who drank it every day, and the six elders immediately led people to inspect all the clansmen after getting the news, and finally found that nearly half of the clansmen were infected with this poison, and because the poison had no effect on the body for the time being, many clansmen expressed disbelief, thinking that the five elders and the six elders were playing with them.
This includes the third elder Qingci, after the second elder disappeared, he became the eldest elder in the Qinglong clan, and the flavored tea is also something he often drinks, he said that his body is not abnormal, and rejected the request of the five elders to take his pulse, and also reprimanded the five or six elders for making this scene, which made the people of the Qinglong clan panic.
The fifth and sixth elders are still investigating this matter, from purchasing tea to sending it everywhere, everyone who can be touched, this involves the eighth elder Qingying, who is responsible for the collection and materials within the clan, the eighth elder and the fifth and sixth elders are the same people who were taught by the seventh elder, and they have a good relationship with Qingkui Qingge, and they also respect the seventh elder very much, and after the accident of the seventh elder, he also spoke for him many times, so that the seventh elder did not suffer.
As soon as this matter was discovered, Qing Ying cooperated with the six elders and the five elders to investigate, saying that if it was really the people under his command who were not clean, he was willing to hand them over to let them go, and the contrast was obvious to the people of the three elders, because the three elders did not believe that there was really this kind of poison, and they were very uncooperative. The same is the same as the Nine Elders, speaking of the security issues in the clan should be searched by the people, and now the six elders are snatched away without saying a word, and he is not good to take people directly to do it against him, in case this poisoning is true, wouldn't he become a sinner, so he only gritted his teeth to put up with this matter for the time being, and also ordered his subordinates to cooperate with the six elders as much as possible to investigate, but the attitude of cooperation was not very good, so there were many disputes between the people on both sides.
In such a mess, Ah Lu and the four of them moved to the small courtyard of Qilin Xianjun, Huang Dou Xianjun was busy checking the diet sent and studying the antidote all day long, Hongdou could still go out, busy inquiring about the news, Ah Lu was ordered to rest because of various problems on his body, and Ah Sheng was arrested by Qilin Xianxian Jun to practice because he had nothing to do all day.
The moonlight is like water, and the bored Ah Lu is lying by the window admiring the moon, and there are bursts of medicinal fragrance coming from the room of the soybean fairy next to him, which makes people feel comfortable. The pale moonlight sprinkled on the cold bluestone road, like a pool of stagnant water, on both sides is a tall bamboo, in the distance is a mottled broken shadow, someone stepped on the moonlight, brushed away the falling slender bamboo leaves, step by step.
Dressed in red, he is as warm as fire, but his beautiful face is often cold and alienated, and a pair of peach blossom eyes that should be graceful and tactful are also a little cold, making people dare not approach easily.
The red bean brushed away the green bamboo leaves that fell on his shoulder, and through the moonlight, he saw that Ah Lu was watching in his direction by the window in front of him, and couldn't help but speed up his pace, wanting to walk over before she closed the window.
A gust of cold wind swept the remnants of the leaves and flew by, and Ah Lu came back to her senses, and the red bean had stopped in front of the window, looking at her.
Ah Lu laughed dryly: "You're back, what can you ask?"
"Qing Qiu's death still can't be investigated, and there is no news from the second elder, the third elder has been a little too active recently, the fifth elder and the sixth elder probably support each other, and it is not clear who supports whom at the moment, the seventh elder is very safe, the eighth elder seems to be the same as before, and the ninth elder is still competing with the sixth elder, but it seems that he wants to snatch the job of finding the second elder from him. ”
"Is that all, is there a way for the five poisonous elders of those clansmen?" Ah Lu simply leaned on the window, staring at the red bean.
Hongdou took a step closer to her: "No, it is also temporarily raised with warm medicinal herbs first." ”
"It's not okay to go on like this, if someone takes advantage of the ...... now" This is something that Ah Lu has always been worried about, although she also understands that there are people from the other three clans here, no one will dare to come and offend easily.
"The matter over there in Jiankang is settled, Wu Gui is coming over soon. When Hongdou said this, his voice was a little cold.
Ah Lu was a little strange: "What did he tell you?
"After the demon was accepted, Mrs. Yuan died of illness, some old accounts of the city lord's mansion were discovered, the imperial court took back some of the privileges of the city lord's mansion, and the Kang family became an ordinary rich and noble family in Jiankang, and after the decree was promulgated, the city lord of Jiankang jumped off the city wall and died, and Lu Bai, who originally wanted to propose marriage, had to wait for another three years, waiting for the filial piety period. Red Bean recounted these things in a calm tone, obviously he didn't care about these things.
Thinking of the bright and sunny girl, Ah Lu couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know how Kang Nian has to suffer this." ”
Hongdou said: "She has been pampered for sixteen years from birth to Jiluli, and even now there is a Lubai and two brothers who are taking care of her and accompanying her, compared to most people, she is already very lucky." ”
After a moment of silence, Ah Lu smiled: "You're right. ”
"We were also lucky. Hongdou suddenly spoke, Ah Lu looked up at him, and saw that his face was a little unreal under the moonlight: "It is the greatest luck that we can meet the Divine Monarch." ”
Ah Lu was slightly stunned, only felt that his eyes were a little sour, and lowered his head and nodded vigorously: "Yes, I have never felt that I was unlucky." ”
Hongdou looked down at her, he remembered that since he decided to go down to the mortal tribulation, he seemed to have rarely seen Ah Lu laugh, he didn't know the reason before, from the time he secretly went down to the mortal again and again, he began to gradually understand what she was worried about, so he felt that they needed to talk about it, but Ah Lu has been very evasive, like tonight, it is the first time to be alone with him for so long, and now may be an opportunity between them.
"Do you have time to listen to me say something now?" asked Hongdou tentatively, even though he was calm on the surface, his heart was already tangled, and his fingers in his sleeve trembled slightly.
Ah Lu's heart beat fiercely, in fact, she didn't resist these things very much since Qilin Immortal Jun told her those words, but when she heard him say this, she couldn't help but feel restless in her heart, and the peace she had been trying to maintain was gradually collapsing, and she understood that she could no longer continue to escape, so she nodded.
After getting the answer, Hongdou breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he couldn't say a word in front of him after thinking about it for a long time, he always felt that there was a problem with this, and there was a problem with that, so he just stood there staring at Ah Lu in a daze, and finally heard a chuckle, Ah Lu sat down on the window, he stretched out his hand in a panic, and felt that the soft body was thrown into his arms.
