Half of the information provided by Du Shu matched what Caiwei said, so Lu Hanjiang immediately went to Caiwei that night to explain the matter.
The two matched up the information, and the identity of the Taoist priest matched up. The information about the Xiaoyao sect disciples did not seem to be fake. At least in Lu Hanjiang's view, this sect was the most suspicious.
Lu Hanjiang even joked: "Speaking of which, I am also a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect. Miss Caiwei has no doubt at all?"
Caiwei seemed a little absent-minded, stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses and said seriously: "I believe Mr. Lu."
"Miss Caiwei is so trusting, which makes me a little embarrassed."
Then, Lu Hanjiang had a detailed chat with the other party, and then saw that it was getting late before leaving.
When returning to his room, Lu Hanjiang bumped into the maid Vanilla in the courtyard. She was holding a plate of snacks and poking her head towards the front door. It would be an understatement to say she was suspicious.
However, Lu Hanjiang went to pick up Wei first, so he returned from a side door this time, and went around to the other party's back.
He looked at the maid who was looking expectantly into the distance, and then looked at the brightly lit bedroom. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that he had not finished reading the little book he bought last time. He made up his mind, so he turned and entered directly. bedroom.
Amber, who was waiting outside, was stunned when she saw Lu Hanjiang come in. When she quietly stepped forward to change his clothes, she looked outside the door, and then she saw the stupid man who was still standing at the courtyard door. vanilla.
Alas - Amber couldn't help but sigh. After Lu Hanjiang entered the inner room, she went over to pour hot water, then turned out of the room and walked toward the courtyard door in small steps.
"Sister Amber?" Vanilla heard the movement, turned around and saw it was Amber, and called out.
Amber knocked the other person's head with his hand and said angrily: "The master has already returned to the house."
Vanilla was shocked: "How come, I didn't even see it!"
Hu Huo held his forehead, pointed to the side door and said: "The master just met the guests and came back from the side door. If you want to show your courtesy, go in now."
Vanilla's eyes lit up, but the light immediately dimmed again. She timidly said, "But, Madam, you must be in the room too."
"You still know that Madam is here," Amber lectured in a tone of hatred: "Since you still remember your identity, you should give up those thoughts that you shouldn't have earlier!"
Vanilla lowered her head softly and muttered something like "It's just natural."
Amber simply turned her body to one side and let the way to the house. She snorted softly and said: "Since you want to show your face in front of the master so much, then go ahead."
Vanilla was so shocked by Amber that she couldn't get off the stage, so she simply lost her temper and angrily carried the plate and walked into the room: "Go ahead!"
Amber was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that the other party was so aggressive and actually went there. She hurriedly wanted to catch up with the other party and pull him back, but there was no way she could stop him in the distance of two steps.
Vanilla rushed into the house with a groan, but as soon as she stepped inside, her anxious mood immediately calmed down. She was a little scared and was already riding a tiger, and finally had to bite the bullet and enter the back room.
"master."
Vanilla timidly came to Lu Hanjiang and presented the pastries: "I listened to the master last time. After I returned home, I have worked hard on my cooking skills and specially made these pastries. I hope you can taste them."
After saying this, Vanilla wanted to bury herself in the ground. Wouldn't it be better to honestly say, "I saw that the master was worried about business, so I made cakes to relieve your fatigue."
What she said now seemed like she was angry about what happened last time.
Here, after hearing what the other party said, Lu Hanjiang also raised his hand to move the small book in front of him. His gaze turned to the side and fell on Vanilla's face with bright eyes and white teeth.
After a moment, Lu Hanjiang suddenly said: "Are you Amber?"
"Sir, this slave is Vanilla." Vanilla's nose felt sore again, but she swallowed back the tears well. At this point, it would be a pity to give in anymore.
"oh."
Lu Hanjiang responded, then picked up a piece of bear pastry and put it into his mouth. He smashed it in his mouth, closed his eyes and tasted it, and then said, "Well, it tastes okay."
Vanilla surface was as happy as if the sky had cleared up after the rain, and then Princess Yongle, who heard the commotion, also came out.
She caught a glimpse of the bear pastry held by Vanilla, and her eyes immediately widened. She stepped forward and picked up a piece and put it into her mouth, with a look of joy on her face.
"Vanilla, your cooking is so delicious." Yongle praised her first, but before Vanilla had time to show her joy, the princess's second sentence made her feel like she had fallen into an ice cave.
Yongle stared at Lu Hanjiang and said with some amusement: "Why do you only do it for the consort and not me?"
This was originally a joke from Yongle, but hearing it was like a bolt from the blue to Vanilla's ears. She froze on the spot and hesitated, not knowing how to answer.
Fortunately, Amber rushed in. She grabbed Vanilla's shoulders and told her not to collapse to the ground. At the same time, she smiled at the two masters and said, "Forgive me, madam, Vanilla was originally made for you two, but she is stupid and said It’s just a distraction.”
"Oh." Yongle didn't think much, nodded and let the matter pass.
Amber, who was amnesty, hurriedly pulled the dull Vanilla and left the house. Lu Hanjiang glanced at the pastries left on the table and said to Yongle: "If the princess likes it, then eat more."
Yongle, who had already stuffed two or three pieces into his mouth, puffed out his hamster-like cheeks, looked at Lu Hanjiang in surprise, and said vaguely: "Don't you like it, Prince Consort?"
Lu Hanjiang turned his attention back to the small book in his hand, tilted his head and said, "Well, the taste is too bland. I like something sweeter."
After hearing this, Yongle happily picked up the entire plate and ran away.
The story that happened in Lu Hanjiang's yard was just an episode. Just when the Jinyiwei's power gradually began to lean towards the Miao land, and they were preparing to focus on dealing with the Lingyue clan, the wind in the rivers and lakes suddenly blew up a very unusual mountain. The feeling of impending rain.
In the same month that Lu Hanjiang went south, the Xuantian Sect from the North counterattacked, but strangely, they did not focus on the righteous knights returning south, but instead went towards a woman with an unknown reputation.
The man was a swordsman named A Lan, and it was rumored that he was a descendant of Hongchen Guest.
At the same time, just as Lu Hanjiang led Jin Yiwei and his entourage to conduct a manhunt in Miao Di, both openly and secretly, another shocking news came.
Shaolin in the north and south were attacked at the same time!
The attacker who invaded Southern Shaolin was another Taoist priest. His intention seemed to be to rescue Huangfu Lingyun who was imprisoned in the pagoda, but in the end he was repelled by the five masters of Southern Shaolin, including Abbot Lingkong.
But although the thieves had retreated, Huangfu Lingyun, who had been meditating on Buddhist scriptures in the pagoda for many years and was considered by Southern Shaolin to have a righteous heart, actually took advantage of the chaos to escape.
But this time, Northern Shaolin was attacked by a group of foreign monks whose origins were unknown, and the losses were very heavy. Because they did not see the sinister intentions of these foreign monks beforehand, they were allowed into the temple, and they were deceived by the center.
This group of monks were not afraid of life and death, just like being raised to die, causing the blood of countless eminent monks in Northern Shaolin to splash into the Buddhist hall.
As for their purpose, there seems to be traces. After the battle with Wudang Xuantian Sect, Qingping was rescued, but Qing Xian'er, who fell into the hands of Zhengdao, did not regain her freedom.
Because she had contact with the Xuantian Sect and was suspected of plotting against the evil inside and outside, she was eventually sent to Northern Shaolin. It is said that Master Lingwu planned to let her read some Buddhist scriptures to eliminate the hostility in her body.
People in the world all suspected that it was this move that allowed the group of monks to sneak attack on Northern Shaolin in order to save people, because when the battle was scheduled there, these monks were obviously helpers of the Xuantian Sect, and they came to rescue their own people at this moment. Nothing could be more normal.
The Northland, North and South Shaolin, were in chaos at the same time.
Just when Jin Yiwei was worried about these chaos, Lu Hanjiang suddenly saw a strange connection in this series of events.
If the tragedy of the Lingyue tribe in Miao territory is also included, the core figures in these conflicts seem to have an unusual connection.
Let’s not talk about Qing Xian’er from Northern Shaolin for the moment. The only remaining ones are Saint Caiwei from Miao Territory, A Lan from Northern Shaolin, and Huangfu Lingyun from Southern Shaolin. These three people seem to be from different places and have nothing to do with each other. In fact, they are all related to the Secret Treasure of Immortality. important person!
Behind this chaos, I am afraid it is not a coincidence, but someone is deliberately manipulating it!
Front row reminder, there will be no update tomorrow, everyone enjoy a happy weekend! :-D
