Chapter 203: Alliance Failure (Medium), Ask for Subscriptions, Ask for Collections
"Thank you, Mr. Qian...."
Before Ning Wuji's words landed, Lu Taiji sneered from the courtyard, "Our Tianxianglou didn't agree, we want to go to Southern Xinjiang with your Jinyiwei." When the two people in the room heard the voice, they looked at each other and hurried out to greet each other.
As soon as the day dawned, Lu Taiji sent the disciples in the building to the Jinling Dart Bureau, and he wandered around the mansion, but as soon as he came out of the courtyard gate of Beiyuan, he vaguely heard Ning Wuji and Qian Wansan discussing the matter of the Eight Great Sects going to Southern Xinjiang.
Cao Haotian hadn't caught it yet, and the whereabouts of the lord of Murong Mansion were unknown, so Jinyiwei was in a hurry to let their eight major factions enter the miasma-filled southern frontier, and in Lu Taiji's heart, he had ill intentions and bad intentions. Before they could explain the situation, he rushed through the front yard of the main hall guarded by brocade guards.
"It turned out to be Elder Lu," Qian Wansan hurriedly greeted him, and hurriedly explained, "The old man didn't know what it was about, but Ning Commander Envoy personally came to the door to ask for it, and he had to..."
Lu Taiji snorted coldly, walked straight into the main hall, glared at Ning Wuji coldly, and said lightly, "What are you trying to do, you might as well say it directly, you don't have to hide it." ”
Ning Wuji laughed loudly, "Elder Lu is thinking too much, this matter is already related to the entire martial arts, and this official is just trying to make a contribution." "The undercurrent of the barbarians is surging, and all factions are deeply affected by it, especially the eight major factions and Tianxianglou who exterminated the barbarian king together back then, they are bound to be the target of their revenge. Ning Wuji was facing the head of the Six Swords of Tianxiang at the moment, and he hoped that he could take care of the overall situation.
Lu Taiji turned around, with a hint of indifference in his eyes, and said sharply, "The eight major factions act above board, and they will never have anything to do with your brocade guard eagle claws. You'd better go back. ”
Ning Wuji smiled bitterly in embarrassment, glanced at Qian Wansan beside him, and motioned for him to step back first.
"Two... The two of us chatted first, and I went to order someone to prepare some breakfast. Qian Wansan coughed dryly, arched his hand to the two people in the hall, and slowly withdrew from the main hall.
After Qian Wansan went out, Ning Wuji looked embarrassed and smiled bitterly, "Elder Lu, everyone is from the rivers and lakes, why bother to divide the court and martial arts." This time, the barbarians secretly infiltrated the Central Plains, and we should work together so that we can protect the people from poison. ”
Lu Taiji's expression was calm, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he said lightly, "Commander Ning, you are not a simple Jianghu person, you are the emperor's pro-army commander." Besides, the barbarians poisoned the people? There seems to be no evidence for this. ”
"Elder Lu, even if I am the commander of the Jinyi Guard now, Ning is also a member of the Easy Sea, and now that the great enemy is coming, how can you stand by like this. Ning Wuji was very puzzled, he had received the news a few days ago that in order to provoke disputes in the rivers and lakes, the barbarians specially ordered people to pretend to be the disciples of the Shaolin and Emei factions to sneak attack the disciples of the Wujian Villa.
Lu Taiji threw off his robe, sat down on the wooden chair opposite, slapped the wooden case on the side, and said coldly, "Ning Wuji, what do you want to say, you might as well say it directly." However, you have to hand over Cao Haotian first, otherwise please go back. ”
"This, it's not a secret, Cao Haotian disappeared after he arrived in Jinling. Ning Wuji looked disappointed, he didn't know that Su Yue and the others would bring Cao Haotian to Jinling, and secretly colluded with King Qing. But he couldn't tell Lu Taiji directly at the moment, otherwise with the people of the Eight Great Sects, if he rushed into the Qingwang Mansion, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Missing?" Lu Taiji frowned slightly, looked disbelieving, and whispered.
Ning Wuji hurriedly stepped forward and explained, "Yes, and the group of people who brought him back are all dead. ”
"Dead? wouldn't it, Ning Commander is going to kill people and kill people?" It is not uncommon for Jin Yiwei to secretly kill people, and it is not impossible to deliberately get rid of people who have come into contact with Cao Haotian. Lu Tai snorted extremely coldly, not listening to the explanation at all.
Ning Wuji hurriedly shook his hand, he shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and sighed, "No, no, no.... They were killed in my house, and in such a similar manner that I suspect the same person did it. ”
"Who?" Lu Taiji frowned, and looked at the other party as if he was lying, so he asked curiously.
Ning Wuji said in a low voice, "Cao Haotian." He didn't believe it himself, it was Cao Haotian who personally infiltrated Ning Mansion and killed Su Yue and Chai Wuming, after all, it was they who escorted him to Jinling, but the unique fragrance of the scene. Later, Yu Tassel and Ye Lin have mentioned it, and it has some connections with Luoyang Tianxianglou.
Cao Haotian ?.... Hahaha... Commander Ning, but is it easy to deceive me?" Hearing this explanation, Lu Taiji raised his head and laughed. He couldn't believe that a person could kill someone who had saved him, but Cao Haotian might be an alternative. Lu Taiji stared at each other tightly and nodded slightly.
"Never, because there is a unique fragrance residue of Tianxianglou at the scene of death. Ning Wuji's expression was firm, if he acquiesced to the internal murder of Jinyiwei, it would undoubtedly push the matter of forming an alliance with the eight factions into southern Xinjiang to a desperate situation, and it was no longer possible.
"Do you suspect that someone from our Tianxiang Mansion infiltrated your Jinyi Guard and killed you..."Lu Taiji asked lightly, he glanced out of the hall door out of the corner of his eye, and a man in a moon-white robe was slowly walking over, and was stopped by the Jinyi Guard in the courtyard for questioning.
Ning Wuji sat aside, he leaned his head against the wooden case, leaned it to Lu Taiji's ear and whispered, "No, I just suspect that Cao Haotian killed people." ”
"Commander Ning's implication is that Cao Haotian killed Jinyiwei's people in order to extinguish his mouth?" Although Lu Taiji guessed this, he was still stunned for a moment, he didn't want to believe that this person was so ruthless, and he refused to let go of even the person who saved his life.
Ning Wuji attached his right hand to his mouth, his eyes were already fixed on a Wudang disciple walking quickly to the door of the hall, and he whispered in a low voice, "Yes, the old man has been secretly investigating recently, but there is still no whereabouts of Cao Haotian. ”
"Are you my three-year-old child?" Lu Taiji suddenly burst into anger, how could there be anyone in Jinling City who Jinyi Wei couldn't find, unless he didn't want to find it, or he already had a target but didn't dare to break in.
Song Lingbing, who was wearing a moon-white robe, coughed dryly at the door of the hall and said respectfully, "Disciple, Wudang sent Song Lingbing to meet Elder Lu. This.... This must be the Ning Commander of the Jinyi Guard. He had just met the little banner of the Jinyi guard in the courtyard, and learned that Ning Wuji was in the main hall, and Song Lingbing was a member of the eight factions, so the little banners did not dare to stop him.
Although Song Lingbing's injuries had not healed, Lingxu Zhenren still asked him to thank Miss Murong of Tianxiang Building. He went to the courtyard in the east of Beiyuan early in the morning, and learned that Elder Lu Taiji had gone to the main courtyard of the Qian Mansion, so he asked the guards and attendants in the mansion along the road before coming to the main hall of the Qian Mansion.
