The moonlight is gentle.
Jun Bubai, dressed in white, swept towards Ye Xianzi. There was wind in the ground, and her red clothes looked a little thin.
Ah sneeze! Fairy Ye rubbed her cold nose, her face flushed, and she looked at Jun Bubai who was flying close as tenderly as a wounded deer, and leaned over.
Jun Bubai was stunned, the concern in his eyes instantly dissipated, a knife intention flew out from his fingertips, and a long sword grew out of his feet. He used the force to fly to the distance, distanced himself from Fairy Ye, and said with murderous intent: "Who are you!"
The sword's intention was just a test. Ye Xianzi rolled up her sleeves to dodge the sword's intention. Her soaked red clothes whirled around, turning the water vapor into countless silver needles and smashing them at Jun Bubai. Her true face was revealed. The man smiled brightly and raised his voice to say sweetly. , "I wanted to subdue you through your love and affection, but I didn't expect you to see through it. I don't know where my change went wrong."
The man turned around and looked up and down, but didn't see any flaws.
The person who came was holding Ye Xianzi's face, saying frivolous words and doing frivolous things. Jun Bubai was so angry that he no longer suppressed his inner strength, and all his inner strength poured out. Ten feet of sword intent surged from his fingertips, and the wind in the cave Squeezed by the sword intent, the silver needle turned into water vapor disappeared without a trace. It could split open the Shen family's study room and split the ground into two. He raised the sword intent with one hand and said with a gloomy face: "If If you hold that face again, this place will be your burial place."
"I don't believe you are willing to chop her." The man mocked, standing there without moving a step, closing his eyes tightly, opening his arms and waiting for the knife to fall.
She was not her, so how could she hesitate? The knife slashed across the roof of the cave, and a few pieces of gravel fell from the top of her head and landed in the spring.
Bai Xiaosheng walked out of the thatched cottage on crutches and shouted loudly in front of the firewood door: "Bu Bai, that's one of our own."
Having touched Jun Bubai's bottom line, it was impossible to calmly stop. The sword's intention had not stopped, it was raging when it rose, and it was still raging when it fell.
The man noticed that the sword's intention had not stopped, opened his eyes, changed his appearance, and had a face that was not white in appearance. His appearance was the same, and even his voice was exactly the same. He said in a strange manner: "You don't want to know what happened to Fairy Ye!"
The sword's intention was slightly off-center, and passed by the right side of the man. The bluestone under the man's feet cracked into a slender opening, twisting and turning, swallowing the falling gravel, and accompanied by water flowing into the gap.
Grasping Jun Bubai's weak spot, the man smiled happily, transformed into Shen Qinglan's appearance, tightened the fox fur around his body, strode towards the thatched cottage, turned around and said: "Don't worry, I'm not going to do it with your face. The one who was looking for her was beaten out by Fairy Ye as soon as he entered the yard."
Approaching the thatched cottage, she fiddled with the Qiansi Broken Soul of the Jiang family in the thatched cottage a few times, pushed open the firewood door, walked into the courtyard, tilted her head, put her index finger to her lips, and added: "However, half of my original face If the old lady of the Shen family sees her, and if that old lady talks too much and tells Miss Lin from the Sihai Escort Agency that Miss Shen's appearance was disfigured by Fairy Ye, I guess Lin Qiu will cause trouble for Fairy Ye."
Bai Xiaosheng raised his crutch to stop Shen Qinglan and said doubtfully: "You were seen when you came down."
Shen Qinglan shook his head and walked into the thatched cottage. There were two other people in the thatched cottage.
There's no need to worry, Fairy Ye. Jun Bubai flew toward Chai Fei, stopped in front of the door, and asked, "Who is she?"
Bai Xiaosheng pointed at Qiansi Duanhun with his crutch, and the Chai Fei opened silently. His eyes signaled Jun Bubai to come in, and he replied quickly: "The second-ranked killer in Mingyue Tower, Shuangyue. Since you are here, there are some things you want to do. Listen."
Qiansi Broken Soul was opened, and Zhu Sanhuai, who was watching under the green plum tree, flew over with Qinggong and squeezed into the courtyard.
Zhu Sanhuai's coming here must be Luo Qing's instruction. Bai Xiaosheng asked, "Did Granny Luo ask you to come?"
Zhu Sanhuai nodded.
Bai Xiaosheng showed off his pretense as the owner of Guinong Villa and said: "Stay outside, I have important matters to discuss with him in secret."
Bai Xiaosheng returned the broken soul of Qiansi to its original place, turned around and walked into the thatched cottage, followed closely by Jun Bubai.
Zhu Sanhuai, who had been ordered by the owner of the village, was guarding the courtyard. He was bored by himself. He caught a glimpse of the flowers and plants growing in the courtyard, broke off one and looked at the watery ones, smacked the sweet taste in his mouth, and walked back and forth.
Jun Bubai finally walked into the thatched cottage and closed the door.
The thatched cottage is not big, with two rooms, the main room and the inner room. The two rooms are separated by a bead curtain strung with pebbles. The inner room was pitch dark, and only the doorframe could be seen.
There is a memorial in the main room, and there is a mahogany tablet with no name or words. The freshest tribute fruits under the festival are enshrined on the memorial tablet on a white porcelain plate. Two pairs of red candles complement each other.
In the middle of the hall, there is a square table. Shen Wanjing, the head of the Shen family, is sitting in front of the hall. Shuangyue, who has transformed into Shen Qinglan, is sitting on his left side, holding the wick of the exquisite palace lantern on the table.
In the corner of the door, the mute slave was eating roasted suckling pig. The mute slave was there, so the position at the door naturally belonged to Bai Xiaosheng.
Bai Xiaosheng pointed to the remaining position and motioned for Jun Bubai to sit down.
Square table, one person per person.
There are some things that you have to listen patiently to understand the reasons. Jun Bubai sat down, and the atmosphere on the table was strange.
Shen Wanjing, who was pale and breathless, stood up from the table, swaying, pointed at Shen Qinglan and asked: "Li Sanlang, what do you want to do? Who is she? Has Qinglan been taken to Chang'an!"
Bai Xiaosheng threw away his crutches, crossed his legs and sat up straight. He took out a bottle of green plum wine from under the table and drank it alone. "Who could she be? She is your daughter Shen Qinglan. It's true."
Shen Qinglan took the wine glass from Bai Xiaosheng's hand and took a sip of green plum wine. The green plum wine was too sweet. She stuck out her tongue and returned the wine to Bai Xiaosheng, still holding the lantern.
Shen Wanjing's eyes turned red and he said sarcastically: "My daughter, Li Sanlang, do you know what you are doing!"
Shen Wanjing turned back and pointed to the unmarked tablet, "My eldest sister followed you before she left the palace, and she didn't even have a tablet after her death. Qinglan is the only flesh and blood she has left in the world. You have to do it for your bullshit Chang'an." Send her to this endless road to hell, have you forgotten the promise you made to my eldest sister back then!"
Shen Qinglan is Bai Xiaosheng's daughter. This news is somewhat unexpected. Jun Bubai suddenly realized that Shen Qinglan's destiny was not similar to that of the Empress of Chang'an, but that she was the orthodox bloodline of the emperor and could endanger the existence of the empress.
He had fallen a little deep into the waters of Guinong Villa. The eldest sister should have known the pros and cons, so she told him to stay away from Guinong Villa, stay out of the situation, and protect himself. However, knowing that Shen Qinglan's life experience is such a huge matter, it is already too late to withdraw at this time.
Bai Xiaosheng put down the green plum wine, looked at the unmarked tablet, and laughed at himself: "I am not a good husband. Because of Chang'an, I let your eldest sister bury myself. I have practiced swords for twenty years, but I can't protect her." , even her name can’t be left for her, and after her death, she can only build a tomb underground and never see the light of day, don’t you think it’s ridiculous.”
Those unknown swordsmanship traces in the cave turned out to be from Bai Xiaosheng.
Jun Bubai cast his gaze out the window, as if he saw an energetic young man practicing his sword in a cave under the green plum tree. Later, the boy's beard and hair were pale, his expression was slumped, and there was no light in his eyes anymore. He sat slumped under the green plum tree, polishing pebbles with his sword. The three-foot-long sword was sharpened into a dagger, and the dagger was sharpened into a dagger. In the end, only the hilt remained. When the hilt was gone, the sword was polished by hand, and the pool of clear water dripped with hot bright red.
How can an unsheathed sword be sharper? Later, he went to Chang'an, broke a leg, and was unable to recover. He abandoned his original name and became a lonely man.
Bai Xiaosheng was still talking, his voice feeling ashamed: "I'm not a good descendant either. Tens of thousands of people in the Li family have acquired this inheritance. After all these years, I still haven't been able to step into Chang'an. I really feel ashamed of my ancestors." .”
Drinking alone is the most depressing thing, so you picked up the jug and took a big sip. The wine was slightly sweet and the green plum was slightly sour.
Bai Xiaosheng took the jug back and held it tightly in his hand. It was his thing and no one could take it away. His eyes were firm and he said, "But I want to be a good father."
Shen Wanjing flicked his sleeves and sneered, "What a good father. Without you, Qinglan would have been so happy these years."
Then he said boldly: "As long as she is the daughter of Shen Wanjing, the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, I can carry it for her if the sky falls. If people from Chang'an come to take her away, I can scatter thousands of taels of gold." Please ask someone to stop her, so she can still have food and clothing, no family hatred and national hatred, and live a peaceful life."
Shen Qinglan, who was in charge of the job, was stared at by Shen Wanjing and his back went cold. After all, he was a fake. He calmed down and sat on the bench.
Bai Xiaosheng crushed the jug and wrote the word Chang'an on the table with wine. Every stroke was penetrating. "Now that Chang'an knows her life experience, how many people in this world dare to go against Chang'an."
What is more important between the majestic Chang'an and the Shen family in a corner of the Yangtze River, Shen Wanjing knows very well. Back then, the Shen family was in decline and unable to compete with Chang'an. But now, under his care and support, the Shen family has become the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River. , the eyes are all over the country, the rich can communicate with ghosts and gods, so why fear Chang'an.
Shen Wanjing, who had been lying on the bed for three years, had no trace of his sickly demeanor. He was full of energy and clenched his hands into fists. "It's just a city of Chang'an. What can you do to me? If you are afraid, go back to your home as soon as possible." Go farm and raise birds in Nongshan Villa. I raised Qinglan. If Changan is aggressive and takes advantage of the entire Shen family, I can protect her well. I will never break my promise to my eldest sister. "
Bai Xiaosheng disagreed. The piles of pebbles under the green plum tree reflected the sadness deep in his heart. He said sadly: "If she loses, she will end up like your eldest sister."
Shen Wanjing lowered his head and replied in a low voice: "With your Guinong Villa infiltrating among the people, it will not be easy to hide someone."
Bai Xiaosheng felt sad at first, and then helpless. Then he summoned all his strength and said: "I have been hiding for a lifetime, and I can't let her hide like me for a lifetime. In the future, she will get married and have children, and so will her children." Hidden for a lifetime, never to see the light of day.”
When he received the news from Chang'an for the first time, Bai Xiaosheng was nervous at first, thinking that as long as he brought Shen Qinglan to him and used the power of Guinong Villa to hide her for the rest of his life, it would be the best arrangement.
In Suzhou City, he met the escaped killer Shuangyue from Mingyue Tower, and he had a more thrilling plan. After hiding for a lifetime, her daughter is still feared by Chang'an. If she remarries and has children, her children will definitely be feared by Chang'an. When will the end of this cycle begin?
He wanted to take a gamble and set up a chess game to subvert Chang'an, so that his daughter could walk openly under the warm sun, look down on the world, overlook all living beings, not be influenced by anyone, and live a peaceful life.
Bai Xiaosheng's first move was the double moon on the right. He twitched the corner of his mouth and said confidently: "Yesterday, there was news in Guinong Villa. Qinglan is still in Shen's house. Those thieves from Chang'an will definitely think that she has been kidnapped. It's just that her shadow will definitely come back. At that time, all she has to do is switch her contract with Qinglan and clear all obstacles for Qinglan to go to Chang'an. When everything calms down, with the financial resources of the Shen family and the planning of Guinong Villa over the years, we can support Qinglan. It was easy for Qinglan to take over Chang'an."
Shen Wanjing smashed his fists on the table. He was so whimsical that it was simply ridiculous. He pointed at Shen Qinglan who had turned into two moons and cursed: "I don't agree. You actually let an outsider who doesn't know the details influence the situation. If there is a slight deviation, Qinglan will ….”
Shen Wanjing restrained his emotions and stopped talking. The eldest sister's fate was vivid in his mind and he could not let Qinglan follow in her eldest sister's footsteps.
A trace of sadness fell in Bai Xiaosheng's eyes, and then he returned to calm. He held a piece of broken porcelain in his hand and pressed it into his flesh. He stared straight at Shen Wanjing and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, "Why don't you give it a try? For Qinglan, for the sake of your daughter, you really plan to make your daughter a maid for the rest of your life and not recognize her!"
The word "daughter" touched a painful spot in Shen Wanjing's heart. He shook, his face became paler, he coughed a few times, and coughed up blood. He wiped the blood around his mouth with his sleeves, and sat down slowly while holding on to the corner of the table.
