"Father, Master. Zhao Qing saluted, glanced at the man in white next to him, and bowed his head slightly, "Scholar." ”

King Qi asked with a smile, "Have you rested?"

Zhao Qingyan stood up and sat down on the chair brought by the next person: "The road is bumpy, and it is okay to rest for a few hours." Xiang Bai Yaotang smiled apologetically: "I didn't know that the scholar had returned, and I didn't go to see him, so I asked the scholar to be strange." ”

Bai Yaotang smiled lightly: "I'm no longer a scholar, so the prince doesn't have to be so polite." ”

Zhao Qingyan is as kind as flowing: "Uncle Bai is an elder, and it is also a proper etiquette for me to go to visit." ”

Bai Yaotang said: "The little prince has just come back, he is physically and mentally exhausted, it is right to rest early, there is no need to worry about it." ”

Zhao Qingyan smiled slightly: "Then thank you Uncle Bai for not being weird." ”

After their brief greetings, King Qi spoke: "Mo'er, where did you go without saying goodbye?"

Zhao Qingyan said truthfully: "I went to Fengyunxuan. ”

King Qi and Bai Yaotang glanced at each other: "You also went to buy the news of the Trojan Marquis Mansion?"

Zhao Qingyan shook his head: "No." And even if I wanted to buy it, I was bought by Bai Gongzi one step ahead of schedule. ”

King Qi frowned: "No, then what are you doing?"

Zhao Qing blinked incomprehensibly: "What is my father asking for?" Are you afraid that I know something I shouldn't know?"

King Qi glanced at him: "Naturally not, it's just that you left suddenly before your injuries have healed, and I'm a little worried." ”

Zhao Qingyan smiled apologetically: "I was afraid that my father would stop me, so I left on my own initiative, and I asked my father not to be angry." ”

King Qi said: "You tell me what you went to investigate, and then I don't care if I'm angry." ”

Zhao Qingyan said vaguely: "It's just a little thing to worry about, it's not worth mentioning." ”

King Qi snorted and looked at Ran Haoxuan: "If he doesn't say it, you say it." ”

"I ......" Ran Hao was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhao Qingyan, but did not speak.

Zhao Qingyan knew that King Qi couldn't give up easily, so he had to smile helplessly: "Say it." ”

Ran Haoyu saw that the young master was not surprised, so he replied: "Back to the prince's words, the young master is going to inquire about the identity of the person who set the auspicious day for the West Lake Painting Boat this time." ”

Bai Yaotang raised his eyebrows unexpectedly: "Oh?"

King Qi was also stunned: "What is the result?"

Ran Haoxuan hesitated for a moment and said, "It's the day that Master Hou requested." ”

Zhuo Yi asked, "So what? What are you doing here?"

Zhao Qingyan lowered his eyes and quickly raised them again: "The civil strife in the puppet palace, Zhu Yan's change to the world, Ran Tingtong's unjust death, the West Lake bloody case, and the destruction of the Trojan Horse Mansion, these things have all come together, and it is no coincidence." ”

Zhuo Yi was puzzled: "What is it if it's not a coincidence?"

Zhao Qingyan squinted: "It was done on purpose, caused by the Mandate of Heaven." ”

Zhuo Yi's eyes moved slightly: "Haven't you always believed in the destiny of heaven? Why did you start speculating at this time again?"

Zhao Qingyan said: "I don't need to believe it, as long as Hou Ye believes it." As long as Thaksin is in place, there is enough reason to choose such a day for me to rush here early, lest I be absent when the Hou Mansion is slaughtered. ”

Zhuo Yi was about to speak, but Bai Yaotang hurried ahead of him and said: "It's not unreasonable, but it's too far-fetched." ”

Zhao Qingyan said: "The Liquor Hall was implicated in the civil strife in the puppet palace, and the killers in the hall were almost wiped out, and the Yuyin Pavilion disappeared from the rivers and lakes from then on. It was also at this time that Misty Butterfly Town was slaughtered by blood, its vitality was greatly damaged, and one of the forces was almost wiped out. And now, the Trojan Marquis Mansion has been slaughtered. They are all the four poisons of the rivers and lakes, do they really have nothing to do with each other?"

Bai Yaotang asked, "Why are you so speculating? Did Jiang Wuyan tell you?"

Zhao Qingyan shook his head: "No, it's my own guess." If I had to say it, it was Lu Xi's words that made me think this way. ”

The three of them were all stunned: "Lu Wai?"

Zhao Qingyan said: "The West Lake Bloody Case appeared for the sake of Lu Cry and the Blood and Tears brothers. Lu Wei was in the middle of his body, but he didn't know the formula of the antidote. If there is no cure within three years, it will be difficult to escape death, so the people in the puppet palace think that he knows that he has thrown himself into the net, and he must also go over and give it a try. As for the name 'Blood Tears', it is just a blind method, giving those people who were harmed by Zhu Yangai on the rivers and lakes a target to hunt down and kill, bringing invisible pressure to Blood Tears and Lu Wai. ”

Hearing that he couldn't get to the point for a long time, Zhuo Yi couldn't help urging: "So what?"

Bai Yaotang said: "Brother Zhuo, don't worry, the prince has his own reasoning. ”

Zhao Qingyan took their changes in his eyes and no longer dragged on: "Lu Wei said that the reason why the two of them were hunted down like this is not for anything else, just because they may know the whereabouts of the Liquor Hall. The wine hall seemed to be dispatched by Tang Xiaoyu, but in fact, it only obeyed Mo Huaijin's orders. Mo Huaijin and his wife are dead, and the whereabouts of the killer in the wine hall will only be in the hands of Tang Xiaoyu or Mo Huaijin's two older sons. ”

King Qi smiled bitterly: "I don't understand a little, what does this matter you said have to do with the Wooden Horse Hou Mansion?"

Zhao Qingyan smiled and asked: "Father, do you still remember what I said about the West Lake Bloody Case? I said that the puppet palace was because we didn't fight against the puppet palace, so we let me live." But in fact, they let us go because of Jiang Wuyan's identity. ”

King Qi was surprised: "Why have I never heard you talk about it?"

Zhao Qingyan said: "Because I was young at the time, and I can't remember it now, I can't make judgments." But the other day I figured out the connection. Jiang Wuyan and the puppet palace said, 'I know where you want what you want, and when I die, you will have to go to the person whose life and death are unknown." And the reason why he was able to threaten him because the two people who the puppet palace thought would come did not come. And according to the idea of the puppet palace, Lu Wei did not go over probably because he was dead, so they did not have the courage to gamble. ”

He paused and smiled slightly: "And after I met Lu Qi, I heard him say again, 'How could Jiang Wuyan exchange such news that is more than 10,000 times heavier than his life for his own life?

King Qi pondered it carefully and vaguely understood: "So you mean that the three of them, Lu Wei, Jiang Wuyan, and Tang Xiaoyu, were hunted down and killed by the puppet palace for the same reason?"

Zhao Qingyan added: "It is not difficult to hear from Lu Wei's words, he thinks that this news is more important to Jiang Wuyan, far more important than to Tang Xiaoyu. ”

King Qi smiled: "This gap shouldn't be important, right?"

"Not necessarily. Zhao Qingyan also laughed, "Jiang Wuyan is the biological son of the previous master of Misty Butterfly Town, and Tang Xiaoyu is only one of the people loyal to the Liquor Hall, not even the owner of the Liquor Hall. In other words, if the massacre twelve years ago was aimed at the Liquor Hall and Misty Butterfly Town, then Jiang Wuyan must die, but Tang Xiaoyu may not be—so, it should be right?"

A hint of discoloration flashed in Bai Yaotang's eyes, but he quietly looked away from the tea cup in his hand, and naturally reached out to pick up the tea and sip it gently. But Zhuo Yi's face changed very obviously, even if it was timely to converge, his changes inevitably fell in Zhao Qingyan's eyes.

King Qi pondered for a while: "It makes sense to say this. But there is no way to know if it was destroyed for the same reason, and the Trojan Marquis Mansion is unharmed. Just relying on the Liquor Hall and Misty Butterfly Town, plus the Trojan Marquis Mansion that was slaughtered by blood ten years later, it doesn't mean anything. ”

Zhao Qingyan asked rhetorically: "If I can be sure that Yuyin Pavilion will also disappear because of this, then my father thinks my guess is somewhat credible?"

King Qi said: "If this is the case, I will at least six or seven percent believe it." ”

Bai Yaotang put down the teacup and smiled slightly: "But the prince can't be sure, isn't he?"

Zhao Qingyan glanced at him with a smile and nodded lightly: "Indeed, I can't be sure yet." ”

Bai Yaotang said: "However, you guessed correctly, Mu Xiao set the time of choosing the first card and the time of hiring at this time because he wanted you to see him die." ”

Zhuo Yi was stunned: "You are ......"

Bai Yaotang said: "Didn't he already guess it? Even if I didn't say it, he himself would find out sooner or later." ”

Zhuo Yi's expression changed a few times, and he only said, "Then it's up to you." ”

Bai Yaotang looked at Zhao Qingyan again: "The Trojan Horse Hou Mansion is good at prophecy, you should also know very well, Mu Xiao calculated the calamity of the Trojan Marquis Mansion, and also calculated that Mu Qinghan can be spared a catastrophe." But what her fate will be in the future is unknown. In the final analysis, he acted like this, and he was just a father looking for someone to trust his daughter. ”

Zhao Qingyan pursed his lips: "I know what Hou Ye means, I just don't understand that Hou Ye already knew about this calamity, why didn't he tell me?"

Bai Yaotang said softly: "You once asked me what you can do in this world. In fact, manpower cannot prevail over the destiny after all. ”

Zhao Qingyan was slightly moved, as if he remembered the scene from his words, a little pain appeared in his eyes, and he couldn't help but reach out and press his forehead: "I know." ”

Zhuo Yi couldn't hold back any longer, and was slightly angry: "Don't you know how Master Mu treats you? Now his bones are buried in the ruins, and he can't even leave his dignity." And at this time, you are so suspicious of his ulterior motives, and it is really a shame that he has saved you and protected you several times without regard for his life! Are you worthy of him?"

Memories poured in uncontrollably, Zhao Qingyan only felt a dull pain in his brain, his eyes darkened, and his voice was a little pleading: "Master, don't say it." ”

Zhuo Yi reprimanded: "More than 100 people up and down the Hou Mansion can't even keep their faces, and the Mu Hou Ye was buried under the wooden pillar and barely recognized his body by leaning on a piece of jade pendant. His only bloodline is lying unconscious on the bed, life and death unknown, but what are you doing? So ungrateful, you can still talk eloquently, how can you ever reflect on your own words and deeds?"

Bai Yaotang persuaded him, but he couldn't stop Zhuo Yi's outpouring anger.

When he was a child, he was seriously ill, and the Trojan Horse Hou came to visit with medicinal herbs in the snow, and left in a hurry.

When he was a teenager, he was greedy and reluctant to go back to the house, so Trojan Marquis put on a big coat for himself, and then sat beside him and looked at the scenery of the lake together.

Half a year ago, at the palace banquet, he pleaded for himself with holy anger, and a month ago, under the blood-stained sky, in the scorching firelight, he faced himself with a gentle and tolerant smile.

In the past 20 years, how can Trojan Marquis be a passer-by? He is an elder who has paid silently, but never seeks to leave any traces in his heart.

yes, he's still alive, but what is he doing......? What are you doing?

"Ungrateful and ungrateful for gratitude. ”

"Tsk, isn't it just that you don't repay your kindness? It's not an exaggeration to say that you will take revenge. ”

"Poor Trojan Marquis thought to death that you would avenge him, at least take care of his daughter. Haha, not for a month, no, maybe not for three days, you start to suspect that he has ulterior motives, right?"

"Alas, Master Hou is really blind that he is willing to marry his daughter to you, a wolf-hearted and shameless person. ”

"Quack, Shameless! Shameless! Shameless......"

Buzzing in his ears, a taunt from nowhere alternated with Zhuo Yi's heartfelt words that appeared from time to time, his chest was about to tear like a pain, and his body seemed to be no longer his own.

"Don't say it, don't say it, don't ...... Shut up, don't say it!" Zhao Qingyan shook his head vigorously, as if to shake off the sharp laughter, but the sound of ridicule became more and more harsh, as if he wanted to drive himself crazy.

"Hahahahahahaha

"Do you know who you're telling to shut up? You're telling your master to shut up, hahahahaha!"

"Don't you open your eyes and see what your master's expression is now?"

Zhao Qingyan subconsciously opened his eyes, only to see a vague shadow with a stunned face, only to feel a sharp pain in his chest, and then the pain spread to his whole body.

"Young Master!" Ran Haoyan exclaimed in surprise, and hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Zhao Qingyan, who was planted forward.
