34. Competing Arts in the Back Mountain (1)

Before you know it, it has reached the eighth day of the first lunar month, and everyone is intoxicated with the joy of the New Year.

At this time of the day, Qin Chuan and Yi Wanyu gathered in Mu Qinglan's room to discuss where to play. Mu Qinglan said: "Xuzhou City is so big, the fun places are overwhelming. Brother Chuan, let's recommend another one!"

When Qin Chuan lowered his eyebrows and pondered, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, and Nian Ping, the maid who served Qin Chuan's daily life, came from outside the door as if a gust of wind was also coming quickly, and said: "Fourth young master, the eldest young master sent someone to look for you, and asked the slave maid to inform you not to go out today." Don't stop and go to the council hall to discuss!" She paused and hesitated: "I heard the messenger say that it seems that there is something wrong with the uncle and nephew surnamed Tang!"

Qin Chuan nodded and said, "Okay, I know the truth." ”

Nian Ping blessed Yi and Mu Ernu with two blessings, and turned around.

Qin Chuan said to the second daughter: "You two go play first, do you want me to find someone to accompany you?" Yi Wanyu smiled: "No need, I've been crazy and tired enough to play in the past few days of the New Year, I want to rest." Mu Qinglan also said: "Brother Chuan, you are busy with serious business, leave us alone." Wait a while, I'll play against Yumei Fuqin. ”

Qin Chuan smiled and said: "It's okay, the two sisters are both talented women, and the jade sister is a master of Yidao, I have already learned it." Let's see your duel, who will kill the deer? Then I'll go first!" Yi Wanyu caught up and whispered, "Brother Chuan, since Mr. Tang Er's uncle and nephew have something, don't forget my words!" Qin Chuan was startled and said, "Since the Chinese New Year's Eve, I haven't seen his uncle and nephew show up, and Butler Xu and Senior Brother Zhao both said that the two of them have been following the rules and have not seen any changes. ”

Yi Wanyu frowned slightly, and muttered: "Could it be that I guessed wrongly, the two of them really just came to visit Uncle Qin, and by the way, they are celebrating the New Year?"

Mu Qinglan said, "Brother Chuan, Sister Yu." According to my guess, most of the Tang uncles and nephews took refuge in Gale Fort to avoid my father!"

Qin Chuan and Yi Wanyu glanced at each other, skeptical. Yi Wanyu said: "Sister Lan, how can you see it?" Mu Qinglan muttered: "Although my father used force to subdue the major gangs, in fact, he couldn't really make the factions wholeheartedly follow. Some are just wise to protect themselves from destruction. For example, the Qingcheng faction, although the head of Zhukong has handed over the 'Heavenly Silkworm Divine Whisk' to my father, he is still unwilling, and my father has only moved to kill him. Yu Fei Gongzi is to save his uncle. promised my father to exchange his life for his life, and then he was forced to kill Dongfang Daoist. ”

Yi Wanyu couldn't help but be moved, thinking of Dongfang Quan's death, she sighed secretly, and said, "In this case, could it be that Mr. Tang Er is the same as Zhukong Dao Chang, and he is also unwilling to coerce, and the yang is in defiance of the yin?"

Mu Qinglan nodded and said, "Very likely!" Xiang Qin and Yi glanced at each other, frowning slightly. A hint of hesitation flashed on his face, and he continued: "I remember that night, I heard a voice in the Dengfeng Inn, and someone secretly came to my father's room to talk to him secretly. I peeked out the window. After a while, a figure emerged from my father's room and went up to the roof. Now that I think about it, most of that figure is Mr. Tang Er. I woke up the next day. Yu Fei and Tang Jian disappeared, I asked my father, but he smiled and didn't answer. Later, I was asked urgently. He just said that he had sent the two of them out on errands. He also said that he would personally protect the safety of me and Aunt Yang in the past few days! It wasn't until I arrived at Dafeng Castle and saw Tang Gongzi's uncle and nephew, and heard you talk about what Yu Fei did, that I felt that something was wrong. Brother Chuan, Sister Yu, guess what the Tang family's uncle and nephew are up to?"

Yi Wanyu muttered: "It seems that letting Yu Fei die on the way must be your father's idea later." Thinking about it, he became suspicious of Mr. Tang Er's uncle and nephew, afraid that he would really take refuge in Gale Castle. As long as Yu Fei dies, Brother Chuan naturally suspects Mr. Tang Er's intentions in coming to Gale Castle! In this way, the uncle and nephew of the Tang family have fallen into a dilemma, even if they want to defect and help Gale Fort deal with the Heavenly Dao Alliance, I am afraid that everyone in the fort will also be suspicious of the two of them!"

Qin Chuan frowned and thought about it, feeling that Yi Wanyu's speculation was indeed very reasonable.

When Xiao County was attacked by Liu San and others in Tiecha Village that day, with Mr. Tang Er's skills, it was really easy to rescue Yu Fei in the carriage. Afterwards, Qin and Yi pondered the reasoning carefully, guessing that either he didn't expect Liu San to really kill Yu Fei, or he deliberately let Yu Fei die in front of Qin Chuan.

However, what the true intentions of the Tang family's uncle and nephew were, Qin Chuan was always puzzled.

At this moment, he heard the words of the second daughter, his heart moved, and he thought: "If what the two of them expected is good, then Mr. Tang Er came to vote for my father, most likely he really intended to join forces with the Great Wind Fort to fight against the Heavenly Dao Alliance." However, his uncle and nephew captured Yu Fei, why did he let someone kill him on the way? Could it really be as Yu Mei said, it was Mu Changfeng's conspiracy and trickery, which Mr. Tang Er did not expect!"

Mu Qinglan sighed and said, "What Sister Yu guessed is very reasonable. In fact, my father's original intention was indeed to make Mr. Tang Er take Yu Fei to Gale Castle to pretend to surrender, intending to find out the truth in the fort, so as to act as an internal response. But with his suspicious nature, he must be afraid that Mr. Tang Er will fake the show, and want to use the power of the Great Wind Castle to get rid of his manipulation. Therefore, he killed Yu Fei halfway, making everyone in the castle suspicious of his uncle and nephew. Alas, it is difficult to guess whether this matter is true or false. I think Mr. Tang Er's uncle and nephew are probably also at both ends of the first rat, and they are hesitant. ”

Qin Chuan suddenly said: "Yes! If his uncle and nephew want to follow Mu Chang...... Mu Senior's plan to deal with Gale Castle is only afraid that everyone has already taken precautions, but if they want to turn against the Heavenly Dao Alliance, because of Yu Fei's death, he will not be able to escape suspicion, and we will not believe them. "I think that Mr. Tang Er lived in a simple house after coming to the castle, and he rarely showed up even during the New Year, most of which was because he knew that he was in an embarrassing situation.

Qin Chuan said to the second daughter: "Two sisters, tell me, where will Mr. Tang Er go?"

The two daughters said in unison: "Leave the Great Wind Castle!"

As soon as these words came out, the two daughters looked at each other and smiled.

Qin Chuan pondered for a moment, and his heart suddenly became clear: "Mu Changfeng's plan is so good that it is difficult for Mr. Tang Er to ride a tiger, so he can only leave the Great Wind Castle obediently! I don't know what thoughts are turning in Mr. Tang Er's heart?" His eyes turned on the second girl's face, and he sighed: "The two younger sisters are really ice and snow smart, and they are like gods, admire!"

At that moment, he said goodbye to his second daughter and came straight to the outside of the conference hall, but saw that Qin Yang and others were drinking tea and talking with Mr. Tang Er's uncle and nephew, so he immediately entered and saluted with everyone.

Qin Yang said: "The fourth brother came just in time. Senior Tang has something at home, and he is about to resign and go back to Sichuan!"

Qin Chuan said in his heart: "Sure enough, Yu Mei and Lan Mei guessed correctly!" Then he turned to Mr. Tang Er and smiled: "Senior Tang rarely comes to the castle, why don't you stay for a few more days?

Mr. Tang Er smiled slightly, stroked his beard, and said, "Where did the fourth prince come from? Hehe, these days, my uncle and nephew are eating and drinking in the house, and the eldest son, Steward Xu and Zhao Xu, the two elder brothers, take turns to invite each other, and play in the mountains and rivers, which is really very comfortable. To be honest, I, Tang Er, really don't want to leave!" After a pause, he breathed a long sigh of relief and said with a wry smile: "Why is it that the old man has been away from home for a long time, and all the mundane affairs in the portal are to be taken care of." Now seeing that Ling Zunyu's body is out of harmony, everyone in the house is worried, and the old man can't help, and he is deeply ashamed. Seeing that the weather is fine today, it is time to hurry, so I will resign to the ranks!"

Qin Chuan persuaded a few words, and Mr. Tang Er was very strong, but he didn't say anything about thanking him.

Qin Chuan wanted to wait for another word to stay, but before he could say it again, Qin Yang said: "Brother Chuan, since Senior Tang has made up his mind, you don't have to persuade him anymore." I hope that the seniors and the Tang brothers will have leisure in the future and often come to Xuzhou as guests!"

Mr. Tang Er smiled: "That's nature. I hope that Brother Bin Wang will have recovered by then, and our old brothers and sons will have a good time to talk about the Deed, and be drunk and rest! I also hope that you can have time to go to Sichuanzhong and drive to Tangmen, and have the opportunity to let Xiao Lao'er be the east!"

Everyone sent Mr. Tang Er's uncle and nephew to the outside of Gale Castle.

Tang Jian, who had been silent, suddenly pulled the corner of Qin Chuan's clothes. The two of them came to a few pines and cypresses far away from everyone. Tang Jian sighed and said, "Brother Qin, I, I have a few words I want to ask you to tell Miss Mu!"

Qin Chuan said: "Brother Tang, please say, I will definitely bring it!"

Tang Jian's face turned red, and he lowered his voice and said, "Please tell Miss Mu that I know that she has always thought that I am not a good person like Yu Fei, and she looks down on me from the bottom of her bones, and is his father's accomplice." Alas, people are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. Although I admire her very much in my heart, I also know that she only has Brother Qin in her heart, and Tang Mou has no thoughts? Alas, I just hope that she can understand that I Tang Jian is not a bad person in the future, and I will be satisfied!"

Qin Chuan was stunned, he didn't expect him to say this. I saw that his face was gloomy, and he muttered: "I'm ashamed, I wanted to make a difference in the rivers and lakes with the identity of the heir of the Tang Sect, but I didn't expect to follow Mu Changfeng by mistake, and followed him to do a lot of unsightly deeds, and now it's too late to regret it." This time, the second uncle took me back, but I was afraid that I would never have the chance to see Miss Mu again. Brother Qin, you gentleman is frank, please tell her about this piece of heart. Anyway, as long as she doesn't see me as a bad person anymore, I'll be blind to death!"

Although Qin Chuan couldn't fully understand the meaning of his words, he also knew that he had a deep affection for Mu Qinglan, so he sighed secretly and said, "Brother Tang, I will definitely tell Miss Mu what you said, please rest assured!"

Tang Jian was relieved in his heart, his face showed gratitude, and said, "Thank you!" After a pause, he let out a long sigh and said with a wry smile: "Yu Fei's death shocked me the most. Although he has done something wrong, he has always been with my brother. Alas, I am also sorry for him when I say it! The rivers and lakes are sinister, and people's hearts are unpredictable, and if they fail to control themselves, they will inevitably fall into the devil's path in the end. Brother Qin, you are so self-conscious. ”

He said just turn around. Qin Chuan shouted: "Brother Tang!" Tang Jian turned around with a wry smile and said astringently: "Brother Qin, you are a good man, you dare to resist death and refuse Mu Changfeng, I only hate myself for turning the wrong mind in the first place." Miss Yu and Miss Mu chose you, it was the two of them who had vision! Brother Qin, there will be a period in the future!"

Without looking back, he walked towards Mr. Tang Er. (To be continued......)
