Chapter 19: A Hundred Miles of Turmoil

When the line is not long, a wisp of piano sound comes with the wind, slow as a stream flowing spring, crisp as a pearl falling on a jade plate, ding ding dong ethereal and qualitative. The pen and fun pavilion www.biquge.info gradually cleared up with the sound of the piano, but a trace of singing was sad and tossing, refreshing people's hearts:

"People are autumn, the moon is autumn, the leaves hate the flowers from the water, the green silk turns into white heads......;

The singing voice is slow, sad and invincible, but I don't want the sound of the piano to suddenly turn from slow to fast, to sad to happy, and the song is also full ......of joy: "The concubine picks the east tea mountain and the south mountain, the south mountain meets the king and kills the trouble, and the disaster is all the way to kill the king, why should he return since he goes?"

At this point in the song, Mo Shaoying yearned, and secretly said that he didn't know which hero and knight only envied the beautiful talk of mandarin ducks and not immortals, but halfway through the song, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and then reinstated: "Who would have thought that the remnant candle was cold and lonely, and where to find the hairpin oath alliance." At the beginning, I didn't hear that Jun had no intention, why did he tell his heart in the middle of the night, Jun Xingyuan, the concubine was full of tears, the rain outside Taisufang did not stop, and the tide of the river head had calmed. ”

After the song, the four of them also happened to arrive at Luoxia Xuan, and vaguely saw a woman in blue sitting in the pavilion, getting closer, only to know that this woman was wearing a hundred flowers silk clothes, the wooden hairpin slanted into the cloud temples, the jade face did not apply powder, the eyes were sad and obsessively looking at the pond surface, a few strands of green silk hung down to the chest, and a pair of shaved fingers like spring onions stroked the strings, but there was no music to hear.

This person is Zhuo Yuqing, the owner of Taisu Fang. Seeing her like this, Zhangzhen motioned for the three of them to wait around the corner, and he walked up to the pavilion quickly, reminding him loudly as he walked: "Why do you play this kind of song that hurts your body and hurts your body? ”

Zhangzhen and Zhuo Yuqing are like sisters on weekdays, every time I see her play this tune, I naturally know who she is thinking about, but after all, she does not have such an emotional experience, so she has to let her not play these sad tunes. And Zhuo Yuqing accepted his good intentions, and he couldn't argue and could only hide the sadness between his eyebrows, with a seven-point smile on his face, and a slight anger, and said: "Yes, I know, Sister Zhangzhu, I'm just idle and have nothing to do to play the "Lonely Yueming" left by the owners of the past generations to see if I can have some understanding." ”

"I say that every time, but every time I ...... That's it, your precious apprentice is back, she..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Zhuo Yuqing Huo Ran get up, went down to the pavilion to look around the corner and was surprised, because there were actually two men who came with Bai Suyi, and one of them looked very much like an old friend who looked like an old friend who was also looking at him uncontrollably.

I saw him step forward, and said with his hands slightly: "Don't come to the owner's place." This song "Lonely Moon Ming" has nine points of the old owner's level in both singing skills and piano skills. ”

After speaking, the person also happened to walk to Zhuo Yuqing's sideways and let go of his gaze and continued: "Qi Mou introduced to the owner that it is Mo Zhongqing, the senior disciple of the head of the Cloud Trace Sect, who is good at divination, and he is half an apprentice after learning some medical skills from Qi. Zhong Qing, come and meet Master Zhuo. ”

This Mo Zhongqing was immersed in the tune of Fang Cai, he never heard Qi Yanzhi's call, Bai Suyi beside him couldn't help but feel anxious for him, looked at the palm needle standing behind the owner and couldn't see this side, couldn't help biting his thin lip, stretched out his hand and secretly pulled Mo Zhongqing's sleeve, his eyes were still looking forward and whispered: "Mo Shaoxia, Keqing called you to come over to see you." After speaking, he immediately bowed his head solemnly, respectfully, as if nothing had happened. Zhuo Yuqing saw this little trick in his eyes, and looked at this handsome young man, his eyes lit up slightly.

Besides, Mo Zhongqing came back to his senses after being dragged by this, and hurriedly stepped forward to apologize slightly: "Yun Trace sent Mo Zhongqing to see the owner of Zhuofang, and he only cared about recalling the music played by the owner of the workshop, and hoped to forgive his sins. ”

"Hmm. ”

Zhuo Yuqing's soft voice should be regarded as an answer, a jade face seemed to be smiling, but a pair of eyes were staring at Mo Zhongqing up and down, as if he really had to see a flower to be satisfied. But in fact, Mo Zhongqing not only had no flowers on his body, but even a trace of crepe on the corner of his clothes was quickly smoothed out by him, and said: "In the next rush along the way, I haven't had time to tidy up my clothes, and I hope the owner will forgive me for the abruptness." ”

Mo Zhongqing thought that this was said safely, but he never thought that Zhuo Yuqing was "poof" chuckle, his eyes showed cunning, and he said in a witty tone: "I see that you are Keqing's apprentice, but you are not bad-looking, and your mind should be transparent according to reason, but I never thought that you were also a stupid donkey." ”

Mo Zhongqing's heart froze, he knew that he would be wrong, but he couldn't turn back after the words were spoken, so he had to be vague, only promised, and the embarrassment was overflowing.

Zhuo Yuqing couldn't help but smile even more happily when she saw it, completely ignoring the majesty that the lord of the first place should have, until she heard the deliberate cough reminder of the palm needle behind her, and then she reined in and said: "You idiot still sit on the side with Keqing and communicate slowly, and wait for me to ask how Suyi is doing and then come to entertain the two." Suyi, how about going to Gangneung?"

Zhuo Yuqing said to herself, Qi Yanzhi was not annoyed, pulled Mo Zhongqing to sit on the stone platform on the side, and listened to Bai Suyi narrate the matter as it was, and when he finished speaking, not only did he frown deeply, but even Zhuo Yuqing frowned frequently, and sighed: "It is also expected that Linglong Pavilion Shangqiu Ying will not accept the discipline of the inner fang, but the encounter in that flower valley is unexpected, if you don't hear it with your own ears, you would think that the demon clan has long disappeared." ”

At the end, I saw her walk to Qi Yanzhi's side, and Ying Ying saluted: "Zhuo Yuqing, thank you Keqing for taking care of the apprentice all the way, but I don't know what Keqing is doing this time." ”

Qi Yanzhi looked at him, paused deliberately, and then said, "If it's okay, can't you come to see the owner?"

Zhuo Yuqing is a delicate mind, seeing him in such a tone, Qiu Bo turned around, and said: "Zhangzhu, you go down to get busy first, Su Yi also took this Mo Shaoxia around and arranged the accommodation of the next two by the way, I still have something to say with Keqing." ”

Seeing that Zhangzhen and Mo and Bai left one after another, Zhuo Yuqing returned to the pavilion and sat down next to the stone table and put the sideburns behind his ears.

"It's not good, pretending to be crazy and stupid to buy drunk all day long. ”

Qi Yanzhimu was expressionless and said truthfully.

Zhuo Yu Qingyu's fingers trembled slightly: "Why is he so hard, no, I need to think of a way to break his thoughts." ”

Qi Yanzhi didn't answer, a pair of eyes looked at Zhuo Yuqing lightly, until she was a little blushing by herself, and then she said solemnly: "If the owner really thinks like this, I, Qi Yanzhi, can help on my behalf." ”

Saying this, he took out a white jade porcelain bottle and said in a deep voice: "The owner knows that I know some medical skills, and this medicine can make people forget all the things in the past quickly, as long as they take it for a few days in a row, within three or five months, the past will soon be erased, even if it is unforgettable, it will be forgotten completely." After stopping the drug, his memory will return to normal within three to five days, and then he will meet other women and have their own children with other women... As for everything about you, it will be forgotten forever..."

Hearing this, Zhuo Yuqing hurriedly interrupted: "Don't say it... You know I didn't mean that..."

Seeing Qi Yanzhi put the medicine bottle in his arms, Zhuo Yuqing still stared at the medicine bottle without turning around, and said softly: "Will you ......?"

Qi Yanzhi intercepted: "No, it is a three-point poison, and the forgotten drug has some side effects, not to mention that heart disease still needs heart medicine, and the bell must be tied to the bell." ”

Zhuo Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly: "After many years, Keqing still likes to joke. ”

Qi Yanzhi straightened up, paced two steps forward, and responded: "But this time I came to laugh, but I didn't come to laugh......

As he spoke, he said, "Bai Suyi is your own?"

Zhuo Yuqing didn't expect him to ask this question, and he was slightly stunned when he was caught off guard, and hurriedly affirmed: "Yes." ”

"Is it his?"

"It's not. ”

"Well, that's not it. ”

"Huh?"

This question and answer without an end is very abrupt and short, which makes people feel quite inexplicable, even the person concerned, Zhuo Yuqing, has just reacted that he has been tricked, and when he saw that he had said it, he simply said with three points of displeasure: "What does Keqing do so much about Suyi's life experience? Yes, she was not born to me, but eight years ago, I took her back from the snow to raise her with my own hands until now, even if she is not my own child, it is better than my own child, and it is not an exaggeration for outsiders to say that she is my own daughter." ”

Qi Yanzhi said: "So you just admit it?"

Zhuo Yuqing raised her eyebrows and said: "Not only do I admit it, but I also want to hand over the position of the owner to her, this time I let her go to Jiangling alone to increase her experience so that she can succeed me in the near future." ”

After Zhuo Yuqing finished speaking, she deliberately glanced at Qi Yanzhi, as if to say: "I'm just so willful, what's wrong." ”

Even if she was angry, such a ruthless attitude should not have appeared on the owner of a square, but Qi Yanzhi knew that this was Zhuo Yuqing's truest side, and of course she had the right to do so, even more excessively.

Qi Yanzhi naturally knows this, and he always knows more than ordinary people, so he is not surprised at this moment, but slowly paced to the pavilion, sat opposite Zhuo Yuqing again, looked into Zhuo Yuqing's eyes and said: "Bai Suyi's matter can be ignored, but the outer fangs in various places have gradually fallen out of the control of the inner fang in recent years, but the inner fang has turned a blind eye, and as usual, he just assigned disciples to patrol around, presumably this plan to catch big fish with a long line was prepared early in the morning, when are you going to start?" ”

When the last few words fell on Zhuo Yuqing's ears, I saw that her face changed suddenly, and she picked the strings with one hand, hooked and released, and with a "boom" A wave of invisible sword qi immediately soared towards Qi Yanzhi, causing the moon-white robe around him to sway, and the placket of the placket had broken a hole with a "hiss", and the laurel tree not far behind him was broken at the waist.

In the face of such a sudden killing intent, Qi Yanzhi looked as usual and said, "Why bother to act if the princess obviously won't hurt the killer?"

Zhuo Yuqing's eyes were cold and starry, staring at Qi Yandao: "Sure enough, it is the guest of the old owner, and he can't hide anything, when did Your Excellency know the identity of this palace." ”

Qi Yanzhi thought for a moment and said slowly: "Not only do you know it, but the old owner also knows it." Taisufang is getting bigger and bigger, and the imperial court has only two ways to go: one is to destroy Taisufang, and the other is to take it for its own use. Princess Xuanzhen tried to worship in the inner workshop, and won the favor of the old owner in just over a few years, the meaning of this court is not obvious.

Zhuo Yuqing was listening, but her face was still not very good-looking at the moment.

Qi Yanzhi said to himself: "Five years ago, the old owner originally wanted to pass on this position to Zhu Jianqiu, but his old man knew that with Zhu Jianqiu's upright temperament, the lower end of the dispute between the inner and outer squares was not cheap, so he finally passed the position to Her Royal Highness the princess who was exquisite. Of course, the old owner also has his own selfishness, and if the driving force behind the dispute between the inner and outer squares is the imperial court, then this multi-year disaster will be eliminated. However, if it weren't for the princess's outstanding talent and pure nature, even if the court put a knife on the old owner's neck, she would not have been able to do so. ”

When Zhuo Yuqing heard this, his eyes calmed down and said: "Then now that Keqing sees that the palace is ignoring the internal and external disputes in Taisufang, does he want to take back the real power of the owner of this workshop and regain power as a guest secretary?"

Qi Yanzhi smiled freely, "How can it be, the cold lips and teeth are related, Her Royal Highness the princess is a smart person." ”

Zhuo Yuqing's eyes froze, and he said with a slight hint of cunning, "This palace has found that Keqing is becoming more and more mysterious, you must know that Taisufang never accepts men, let alone let a man take the position of Keqing." Of course, even if this palace is curious, it will not ask your Excellency how to become a guest secretary of Taisufang, just like the guest secretary will not reveal the identity of this palace to others. ”

Qi Yanzhi stroked his palm and agreed: "I won't talk too much, Her Royal Highness the princess can rest assured." ”

These two people come and go, their faces are generally pleasant, but the words of the exit are competing, and after a while, they tacitly reached some kind of agreement, Qi Yanzhi got up and stepped out of the pavilion, and a dispute without gunpowder was about to end, only to see him just take a few steps and suddenly turned around and asked: "When the princess picked up Bai Suyi, how old was she." ”

Zhuo Yuqing said with a smile: "How can this palace know, it's just that she doesn't walk very steadily." ”

"Well, thank you princess for telling me and retiring next. ”

After that, Qi Yanzhi walked away.

......

The scenery of Jinling is picturesque, it is really unforgettable, whether it is like the Taisufang of the fairyland of the world, or the Qinhuai night tour painting boat, the Jinling bridgehead leans on the railing and looks, as long as there is a place where Bai Suyi is there, Mo Zhongqing is not willing to be happy.

Shu Yao and Qi Yanzhi are also willing to be foils. And what the ancients said about being happy is about the truest portrayal of Mo Zhongqing these days. It's just that he has never forgotten that the second senior brother also has a good impression of Su Yi. He didn't forget that he was "watching" Su Yi for the second senior brother, but he didn't know when this feeling changed, and he finally realized what it means to be "can't help it" but can't express it directly.

On this day, Mo Zhongqing waited for Bai Suyi to lead him and Qi Yanzhi out to play as usual, anxiously looking forward to not saying much, but fortunately, Bai Suyi came as promised, but his face was panicked, and he came into the door and hurriedly faced Qi Yanzhi: "Keqing, something happened, the owner called you to discuss." ”

Mo Zhongqing had never seen Bai Suyi so anxious, so he said casually: "What's wrong?"

Bai Suyi replied: "Sister Nayun has an accident, let's talk about it when we go to the Hundred Flowers Hall, you can come too." ”

The three of them came out of the Yunzhu Pavilion on the island and went straight to the Taisufang Hundred Flowers Hall, which is usually used when receiving distinguished guests and announcing important matters, which is enough to show that this matter is very important, and it is not allowed to be sloppy.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Wu Shuyao, Zhu Jianqiu, and Zhuo Yuqing, the owner of the workshop, who had been waiting for a long time, and everyone's faces were covered with gloomy clouds, only Zhuo Yuqing saw Qi Yanzhi coming, and his color was a little dark, so he stepped forward lightly, handed over a letter to Qi Yanzhi's hand, and said in a deep voice: "Keqing will take a look first." ”

Qi Yanzhi opened the letter, but what caught his eye were five big characters that had been dark red and dry, and the book said: "Songyang County has changed"

Qi Yanzhi's eyes sank, his fingers gently rubbed the handwriting, and Fang stepped forward to sniff deeply, and said firmly: "It's human blood." ”

Hearing this, the girls were even more eyebrows locked, and Su Yao became more and more anxious: "What can I do about this, Sister Nayun has not returned yet, I'm afraid I'm afraid it's ......."

Seeing this, Zhuo Yuqing hurriedly stepped forward to reassure her: "Sister Nayun's ability to turn evil into auspicious and kill Cheng Xiang is obvious to everyone, and the blood book is not necessarily true. ”

Although Zhuo Yuqing persuaded him like this, he was already very uneasy in his heart, his eyes glanced at Qi Yanzhi, and then said: "But the letter was sent back with a carrier pigeon, and this carrier pigeon was specially brought by Nayun when she left, and now the carrier pigeon flies back, no matter who the blood book comes from, Nayun is probably in a bad situation, dare to ask Keqing what is his opinion?"

Qi Yanzhi said unhurriedly: "Although Qi is a guest of this workshop, he has not returned to the workshop once for many years, and he is not clear about the matters in the workshop, so such a major decision is still left to the owner of the workshop." ”

This statement was originally expected by Zhuo Yuqing, and she responded: "Regardless of whether the blood book is true or not, Nayun has not returned for a month is the first thing, and someone must be sent to check it." But everyone in the outer square knows that I am the same sister as Sixiu, so from this point of view, Sister Lu, the owner of Qunfang Pavilion in Songyang County, is afraid that she wants to meet me, the owner of the inner square. ”

Zhuo Yuqing bit the last four words very hard, showing that she knew that the outer fang was no longer under her control, and she was afraid that it would be a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, and there would be more than luck.

Zhangzhen listened to it, and immediately cut it off: "No, since you know that it may be a conspiracy by all the outsiders, then the owner can't go." It's up to me to take my sisters to question Nayun's sister's whereabouts!"

This Zhuo Yuqing intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Qi Yanzhi, who was motionless, and responded: "Sister Zhangzhu, don't worry, I didn't say that I would go in person, Sister Zhangzhu also needs to stay and stay with me to play a play." ”

As he spoke, he took out a scroll from his cuff, and when he saw that the expression of this thing changed, he heard Zhuo Yuqing say in a deep voice: "Bai Suyi listens to the order, the owner of this workshop is now handing over the 'Taisu Xuanjing' to you to take care of, why don't you come up and receive the scroll?"

After that, in the stunned eyes of everyone, she personally stepped forward and put the scroll in Bai Suyi's hand, seeing that she was stunned and looked at her in disbelief, she couldn't help blinking and said, "I want you to go to Songyang County in my appearance." ”

"Taisu Xuanjing" records all the essence of the inner fang, and at the same time contains some ancient humanities records and the experience of the owners of the past dynasties, which can be said to be the token that the owners of the Taisu Fang never left their bodies.

Holding such a heavy volume, Bai Suyi said in a panic: "The owner of the workshop is too child's play, if you want to pretend to be you, you should also be in charge of the needle or Sister Su Yao, as for this "Taisu Xuanjing" in the hands of the disciple, I am afraid that it is powerless, and it cannot be fully protected, so it must not be handed over to Suyi to take care of." ”

Zhuo Yuqing saw that Bai Suyi refused to accept it, and said patiently and pleasantly: "Why can't you?" First, you follow me on weekdays and know everything I say and do, and then the sisters who come to the outer square don't come to this inner square on weekdays are not very familiar with my appearance, they only know that the "Taisu Xuanjing" never leaves the owner of the workshop, and it is more convincing to have this thing to prove, so it is most suitable for you to pretend to me." ”

After a pause, he said: "In addition, when you go to Longtan Tiger's Den, most of them are dangerous and abnormal, and when you come with this thing, you can hand it over to Lu Bujia in exchange for your sisters and your own life, and secondly, you can also participate in research and research on your own on the way, in addition, I will let Shu Yao and dozens of sisters in the inner square go with you, and there are many people." ”

Without waiting for Bai Suyi to answer, Zhu Jianqiu took a step forward and replied: "The Taisu Xuanjing is a token of the owner, and it must not be exchanged, or I will go for Shu Yao." ”

Zhuo Yuqing shook his head and said: "It's not proper, you have been practicing in the inner fang for many years as a palm needle, and no matter how good your martial arts are, you can't resist the sinister hearts of the people, plus Shu Yao is in charge of foreign affairs as a dancer all the year round, and this contact with the outer fang is also handled by her hands, and sending her with her will not make people suspicious, not to mention that this inner fang still needs you to sit with me." If the expected change in Songyang County is true, then the inner square will never be stable. ”

At the end, I saw her change her words and said leisurely: "It's just that going to Songyang here is really dangerous, and I'm still a little worried." ”

Wu Xiu said: "Please also ask the owner to be relieved, I will definitely bring the sisters back one by one." ”

Zhuo Yuqing nodded but didn't answer, but looked at Qi Yandao: "Keqing, I don't know if the little sister has arranged it properly?"

This inquiry was meaningful, as if I had wanted to ask it in the morning. How could Qi Yanzhi not understand the meaning of the words, I saw him calmly replied: "It's proper, it's so proper that you even have to help your subordinates." ”

Zhuo Yuqing saw that he had seen through his little tricks, but his face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he saluted respectfully: "Thank you Keqing for your success, with Keqing's resourcefulness to rescue Nayun and ensure that the sisters are thoughtful, it should be no problem, I hope Keqing will take care of it more this time." ”

"Thanks to the love, I will go here to prepare and prepare, and I will go to Songyang County with you tomorrow. ”
