Chapter 102: That Man, Lotus Gongzi

A sect, some people do face, some people want to be inside, the sword qi volley hall is in the sword sect, it is no different from the secret guard mansion in the imperial court, and the demon suppression hall is in the daomen, all of which are doing secret and private things, which is the so-called linzi.

After Wu Yu left, Xu Beiyou was still standing outside the Liuli Pavilion, and after a while, Yujia, Xuanyi, and Ghost Ding hurriedly arrived.

Just a few days ago, Xu Beiyou handed over a secret order to the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall, and it was almost completed today.

Speaking of Li Qingping, it was Li Qingping's incident that sounded a wake-up call to Xu Beiyou, there are too many female disciples in the Sword Sect today, and it is a little difficult for young women to grasp the balance of love, Li Qingping even dares to turn his back on the family for the sake of a lover, so the more than ten years of cultivation of the sect may not be able to defeat a few sweet words from the lover when the love is strong.

Xu Beiyou had already heard Xiao Zhinan mention the matter of the peony, so would the Secret Guard Mansion, which was in the same vein as the peony, also use this method? Xu Beiyou felt that it was necessary to take precautions, so he secretly ordered the three of them, including Yujia, to secretly investigate the sword sect, so as not to catch fire in the backyard when he went to the imperial capital.

As a result, the three of them really found out some clues, but this time the problem was Li Qinglian.

During the period when Xu Beiyou left Jiangdu, it was an extremely indulgent period for Li Qinglian, and if you really want to sum it up, there are probably only two things: reading and playing, as for how to deal with the affairs of the sect and cultivate the way of the sword, it is irrelevant.

Li Qinglian first borrowed two tomes from the library building of the East Lake Courtyard, one is the biography of the immortals, and the other is the "Qinglian Sword Sutra", the result is that the biography of the immortals was read by her, and the "Qinglian Sword Sutra" was completely shelved after reading the first chapter hastily.

In the eyes of her, the eldest lady who has never lacked cultivation secrets, this Qinglian Sword Sutra, which has been coveted by countless monks, may not be much more precious than half a tael of silver.

In addition, it is to play around, anyway, she is not short of silver, since Xu Beiyou took charge of the Sword Sect, she has raised her example of silver upwards, and it has reached 15,000 taels of silver per year, which is a lot higher than the annual salary of the vassal king of a place, although Zhang Xueyao will "deduct" most of it and help her accumulate it as a dowry, but there are still about 5,000 taels that can be obtained, which is enough for her to squander, in fact, during this period of time, Li Qinglian did not even spend 1,000 taels.

Jiangdu City is the world of the three Lafayettes, or the territory of Xu Gongzi, in short, Li Qinglian can be rampant, after no one is controlled, Li Qinglian can be regarded as doing everything she wanted to do but did not dare to do before, and even disguised herself as a man to go around the courtyard, so she also got the nickname of Lian Gongzi, and also met a lot of friends, there are children of the sect who have traveled here, there are noble sons from the eight great families in Jiangnan, and there are also many fairy heroines, almost all of them are quite family figures, half a bucket of water is not satisfied and swaying, Xu Beiyou, A young man of Qi Xianyun's level disdains to go, and Xiaoyu and Xiaoxiao can't get in if they want to.

This is the leisurely time of a son-in-law who is protected by the sect and elders.

The key is that there was a not very harmonious episode in this leisurely time, a Confucian student who cultivated and read the heirloom met Li Qinglian by coincidence, this person can be said to be a gentle and courteous gentleman, and his temperament is still a good gentleman, and he is the most restrained Li Qinglian's eldest lady's temper, and there are some signs of something wrong when he comes and goes.

Ghost Ding saw a little strangeness from the process of the two of them getting acquainted, although there was no real evidence, but he still subconsciously believed that there were traces of man-made.

The so-called coincidences are nothing more than deliberate.

Xu Beiyou has always regarded Li Qinglian as half a younger sister, and he was furious when he learned about it, he didn't mind that Li Qinglian and the young man had feelings for each other, but he didn't want to see someone make a fuss about Li Qinglian.

Xu Beiyou originally wanted to make this person disappear unconsciously, but after thinking about it, this move was a bit too arbitrary, so he asked Yujia and Xuanyi to bring it to see what kind of details he was, if he was really a virtuous person with an innocent background, then he would severely punish the ghost Ding to make amends for his crimes, even if he recognized this brother-in-law generously, it was not impossible, but if it was a person with ulterior motives, it was still that sentence, he never hesitated to kill.

Xu Beiyou asked, "Where is the person I want?"

Yujia said softly, "Please come with me, young master." ”

The group quietly walked out of the East Lake Courtyard and came to a small courtyard not too far from the East Lake Courtyard, this small courtyard actually has a cave, there is a secret passage down in the main hall, and at the end of the secret passage is a dungeon located deep underground.

Under the guidance of the royal armor, Xu Beiyou walked into the secret passage.

First, there is a winding passage, made of bluestone, like the passage of the emperor's mausoleum, with torches inserted in the walls. Then the road began to extend downward obliquely, about seven or eight hundred zhang away, and it had already gone out of the range of the small courtyard, and I don't know where it led.

Xu Beiyou walked for half an hour with the twists and turns of the imperial armor, walked through three or four forks, and finally walked out of this road, the eyes suddenly opened up, the lights were bright as day, there were more than a dozen large and small cells, and in the middle of the cells was a spacious open space, where a row of shelves and various torture instruments were placed, as the place of the criminal trial prisoners.

But now there was only one prisoner in the cell, a young man dressed as a scholar, lying on his back on a pile of thatch in the left cell, motionless.

Yu Jia personally moved a chair and placed it behind Xu Beiyou, and after Xu Beiyou sat down expressionlessly, the two sword qi swordsmen guarding here pulled the scholar out of prison.

Xuanyi stepped forward to take the scholar, then waved his hand to the two of them, signaling them to stand back.

Xu Beiyou raised his chin slightly, and the ghost Ding stepped forward to wipe it lightly in front of this person, and then retreated to Xu Beiyou's side.

The Confucian scholar woke up slowly, and was then put on a chair by Xuanyi.

The two sat opposite each other, and Xu Beiyou opened his mouth and asked, "Do you recognize me?"

The Confucian shook his head, stared at Xu Beiyou for a while, and hesitated, "Young Master Xu?"

"If only you knew me. Xu Beiyou said calmly: "Then you should also know Li Qinglian." ”

There was silence in the dungeon, and the Confucian scholar looked blank and helpless.

Xu Beiyou said calmly: "You don't know Li Qinglian, then you should always know Lian Gongzi, right? It is the Lian Gongzi who traveled with you in Houhu, as far as I know, the reason why you were able to meet Lian Gongzi by chance on the shore of Houhu Lake was actually to buy off a friend of Lian Gongzi and learn about her itinerary in advance. ”

The Confucian scholar was still blank and said, "What does Xu Gongzi mean by this?" I don't understand......

Xu Beiyou's eyes flashed a gloomy, and he said softly: "Since Your Excellency doesn't understand, then I'll help Your Excellency understand." ”

As soon as the words fell, Xuanyi suddenly made a move and pinched the scholar's spine.

The scholar's face, who was already not a high cultivator, suddenly became extremely hideous, and cold sweat the size of a bean oozed from his forehead.

Xu Beiyou lowered his eyes slightly and asked, "Do you understand?"

The scholar raised his head, the green tendons on his forehead and neck burst out, and said with difficulty: "I have no grudges and no hatred with Xu Gongzi below, why should Xu Gongzi be embarrassed, if Xu Gongzi is unwilling to associate with Lian Gongzi below, then it is straightforward." ”

Xu Beiyou said a good word with a smile, and instructed the ghost next to him: "Continue to torture until he speaks, as long as you don't let him die, you can do it by whatever means." ”

After the ghost Ding received the order, he stepped forward with a cruel smile, while Xu Beiyou got up from the chair, didn't look at the cruel scene behind him, and walked out alone.

Now he can be sure that there is something wrong with this man.

In fact, the reason is very simple, he is too flawless, which is the biggest flaw.
