The fact that one of the servants has withdrawn from the decision-making center of Huaidu is naturally unknown to the world.
They didn't see any joy on the face of an adult walking in the dusk.
On the contrary, whether it is Shangshu Ling, Zhongshu Ling, or the Ministry of Personnel.
There was an extremely solemn look on their faces.
The move of Water in the Bottle did not make them feel relieved. On the contrary, everyone had a kind of worry caused by the sudden change.
When the world saw the expressions on the faces of those adults, they felt more and more that their Lord Attendant seemed to be doing something that was embarrassing for everyone.
It was May 19th, one thousand and four years in the calendar of Dafeng.
The wind in Huaidu is still blowing.
Dali Temple interrogated a certain scholar who had contact with the Siwu Demon Mansion several times, and also arrested some Siwu guards who were wandering around the Siwu Demon Mansion.
This may be some kind of signal.
Public opinion in Huaidu was ignited in an instant.
People began to talk about whether certain lords in the palace were really going to fall.
There may be some excitement in his expression.
After all, during the year when the servant was in power, the world was on fire. No matter how you looked at it, it was inseparable from the series of decisions made by such a master.
Gu Xiaoer was also a little excited, but when he forgot to leave the rag on his shoulder in the noodle shop and hurried to the alley to find Zhu Congwen, Gu Xiaoer, who was standing in the alley, suddenly fell silent again. .
It seems that such a thing is not good news for Zhu Congwen.
Of course Gu Xiaoer knew that Zhu Congwen was innocently involved.
But for the world, this may not necessarily be the case.
The waiter at the noodle shop stood in the alley in a very troubled manner.
If the Lord Attendant really falls, it will naturally be a great good thing for the people of Huaidu.
But for that scholar, he would probably be involved in the liquidation.
Gu Xiaoer had a headache and sat down on the steps at the corner of the alley with a rag on his back.
After a long time, the scholar who walked out of Dali Temple for the fifth time came back very tired.
He left the alley in the early morning and finally returned to the alley in the evening.
The scholar who thought he could study in peace felt very melancholy and thought that it would be better for him to be imprisoned directly in the Dali Temple Prison.
At least we don't have to run back and forth from south to north.
When Gu Xiaoer saw the tiredness on Zhu Congwen's face, he put down those tangled things and looked at him with some uneasiness and asked, "What did Dali Temple do to you?"
Zhu Congwen shook his head and said softly: "No, I'm just drinking tea today."
This sounds a lot like some perfunctory prevarication.
But what the scholar said was the truth.
He took him to Dali Temple in the early morning. The young minister of Dali Temple who was looking for trouble brought two Siwu Demon Guards, asked him some questions perfunctorily, and then let him stay in Si Yazhi. It was probably May. I was worried that the scholar would be hungry and thirsty, so I prepared snacks and tea for him.
It was not until after noon that he was released together with the two Siwu guards with bull-headed bench legs.
Relatively speaking, Zhu Congwen was actually quite lucky. It was said that the two Siwu guards had committed malfeasance because they had made trouble for a Taoist from Qingtian Dao, and they were intercepted outside Dali Temple by people from the Ministry of Punishment. Taken to the Ministry of Justice.
When the scholar looked there, he couldn't say that he was in the same boat, he was just very melancholy and didn't know when such days would end.
When the scholar thought of this, he took out a paper bag from his arms and handed it to Gu Xiaoer.
The latter looked at the paper bag and asked cautiously: "What is this? Do you really have evidence of the crime of Lord Attendant?"
Zhu Congwen said silently: "I'll give you a taste of the snacks from Dali Temple."
When Gu Xiaoer heard this, he forgot about what happened just now and took over and ate it.
After all, Dali Temple can be regarded as a government office that is unreachable to ordinary people. It is comparable to the six departments. Gu Xiaoer is naturally very curious about what snacks they will eat.
Perhaps it is indeed very exquisite and delicious.
Zhu Congwen didn't feel much, after all, he didn't have the intention to care about such things.
Gu Xiaoer, who was eating snacks there, saw Zhu Congwen's tired and sad look on the side, but he was not in the mood to appreciate it. He hurriedly swallowed the snacks in his mouth, not caring about choking. , looked at him and said seriously: "It seems that the Lord Attendant is really going to be finished. Will you be implicated then?"
Zhu Congwen leaned against the alley wall in silence, and after a long time he said softly: "Maybe."
The scholar probably never thought that the human story would turn so suddenly.
After that incident happened one night, everything began to fall out of control.
After the end of the Heavenly Prison Reign, the Siwu Demon Mansion regained the right to be one of the three regents.
But it seems difficult to hold those things anymore.
Especially these two days.
Even during the Siwu Period, there were still many voices in the world discussing those things.
The actions of Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment were certainly the trigger, but in the final analysis, it was because Tian Yu took over Huaidu for a few days and isolated the Siwu Demon Mansion.
This made people in the world begin to have a lot of speculations.
It's just that they still didn't talk too much about some things after all.
After all, Heavenly Prison has been very peaceful these days.
Except for the occasional appearance of jailers from outside Huaidu on the streets, there were no major movements.
On the contrary, there seem to be some real people from Qingtian Dao in Huaidu.
It's just that the affairs of Qingtian Dao are often too far away from the human world. They are matters of the cultivation world, and it is naturally more difficult for the world to figure them out.
Gu Xiaoer thought about the recent rumors in Huaidu, and was silent for a long time, and then said softly: "Over there in the Heavenly Prison, could it be...?"
This may be a bit wishful thinking.
Naturally, it is impossible for Heavenly Prison to speak out against these things.
Even if the officials came forward, it would probably be more practical than the Heavenly Prison.
So Gu Xiaoer stopped talking midway through.
Zhu Congwen remembered the story outside Tianjing Alley that night.
In fact, not only did he not understand the idea of water in a bottle, he also did not understand Liu Qinghe's idea.
Both seem to be saying something the same - loyalty to His Majesty.
Zhu Congwen sighed softly and said nothing.
Gu Xiaoer also sighed and said: "So for you, the best thing is that the Lord Attendant does not die."
Zhu Congwen smiled helplessly and said: "These things are not something you and I can decide. Those who should be finished will naturally not last long. In other words, in fact, you also really hope that Mr. Shizhong will step down. If the story does not take decisive action, I am afraid that even the north will not be able to settle down..."
What the scholar said is, of course, irrefutable evidence of the water in the bottle.
It starts from Nanyi City facing the 800,000 Huangliang garrison sea guards and Daze witch ghosts.
This Lord Attendant is doing things that the world cannot understand.
Gu Xiaoer fell silent.
The scholar said nothing more, smiled, and walked deeper into the alley.
"In life, of course it is impossible for everything to go as planned."
The scholar said softly, but he didn't know what he was thinking of. He turned back and looked at Gu Xiaoer seriously.
"I want to eat a bowl of noodles, Brother Gu."
Gu Xiaoer sighed and naturally knew what Zhu Congwen meant. He stood up with his knees and walked out of the alley.
"I'll get it for you."
Zhu Congwen stood quietly in the alley.
The wind stopped talking about young people and began to talk about scholars.
Naturally, he was also afraid that everything would lead to an irreversible situation.
The noodle shop was not far from here, so Gu Xiaoer hurried away and returned before the sunset.
The scholar waiting at the entrance of the courtyard looked at Gu Xiaoer, who not only took a bowl of noodles, but also brought a bag of things, and was a little confused.
"What's this?"
Gu Xiaoer handed the bowl to Zhu Congwen and unfolded the cloth bag in his hand, which contained some persimmons stored last year.
"Yes, it means Shishi Ruyi."
Gu Xiaoer said seriously, took one, sat down to eat, and handed the rest to Zhu Congwen.
The scholar stared blankly at the persimmon in his hand, and then at Gu Xiaoer beside him.
Just said nothing.
Everything goes well.
Persimmon persimmon wishful thinking.
Of course it is a very good wish.
...
Xu Chunhua still went back to that alley.
After all, in a certain sense, Mei Xiyu is still a guilty person.
Those who have committed crimes can wear shackles and walk, but they cannot be too wanton.
While the Qingtian Daoist was sitting quietly in the courtyard of Siwufang, someone knocked on the door of the courtyard.
I thought it was Xu Chunhua, but when I opened the door, the Taoist stood there in surprise. Then he came to his senses and bowed respectfully.
"Uncle Master."
The person standing at the door is a Taoist.
The sword mark between his eyebrows has faded a lot, but it is still clearly visible to the Taoist.
Qin Chu came.
And the sword cultivator who swept the snow from his eyebrows was now on the oblique platform. Naturally, Qin Chulai did not go there, but came directly to Siwu Square. Seeing this person might be the next generation. A disciple of Qingtian Taoist Temple Master.
Qin Chulai nodded slightly, looked into the courtyard a few more times, and then said slowly: "How are you doing with your nephew in Huai?"
Mei Xiyu gave way to the courtyard door, led Qin Chulai towards the courtyard, and said softly: "Everything goes well."
Naturally, everything in the story of Huaidu cannot go smoothly, but Mei Xiyu is naturally not a child who wants to sue after being wronged. What's more, there is some very close connection between Qingtian Dao and Huaidu. The things that Taoists did for Heavenly Prison may also be taken for granted.
As Qin Chulai walked on the courtyard road, he smiled softly and said, "Your master cares about you very much in the mountains. He specially entrusted me this time to come and see you."
Mei Xiyu was silent for a while and said softly: "Thank you for your concern, uncle and master, Xiyu is fine."
Perhaps it is sometimes difficult for the world to imagine that a gloomy Taoist like Qin Zailai would have a master-disciple relationship with this rather indifferent Taoist.
It's just that he is gloomy all the time, or he just doesn't like to talk, but he may not necessarily be a gloomy and cruel person.
Qin Zailai may really care about this disciple.
When he first saw some possible opportunities, he decisively put forward some ideas to Bai Yuyao.
Although Mei Xiyu didn't really want to get involved in these stories, she did understand Qin Zailai's good intentions.
Qin Chulai stopped in the courtyard.
Mei Xiyu followed quietly, looked at him and asked, "I wonder why Uncle Master came to Huaidu this time?"
Qin Chulai was silent for a while and said softly: "Some things happened in the temple. The owner of the temple is not allowed to pry, so he can only come to Huaidu to look for some clues."
Mei Xiyu frowned, probably not understanding why the matter of Qingtian Dao required ordinary clues from Huaidu.
Qin Chulai suddenly turned to look at Mei Xiyu and asked a very strange question.
"Have you ever been to the depths of the temple and seen those white temples?"
Mei Xiyu looked at Qin Chulai in shock. The matter of Bai Guan was always something that Qingtian Dao never wanted to mention. However, Qin Chulai asked it directly. This Taoist may have also realized that Guan Zhong What happened was a bit unusual. I thought about it seriously for a long time, and then said: "Baiguan has always been a forbidden place in the temple. Xiyu has never been there. Uncle Master, what happened in the temple?"
Qin Chulai never thought about getting any answers from Mei Xiyu. He probably just asked casually on a whim. After all, Mei Xiyu couldn't touch things from twenty years ago.
The Taoist with sword marks between his eyebrows shook his head and said, "Nothing."
The small courtyard of Siwufang fell silent.
After a long time, Qin Chulai said softly: "There is one more thing you need to pay attention to."
Mei Xiyu said solemnly: "Uncle, please speak."
Qin Chulai said slowly: "Your Majesty is recovering from his injuries and will return to Sophora Capital soon. I would like to remind you that if there is any trouble in Sophora Capital, it needs to be resolved as soon as possible."
Mei Xiyu was not too surprised when he heard the news.
Your Majesty will naturally return to Huaidu. After all, Qingtian Dao is not the imperial capital on earth.
So he just said seriously: "Xi Yu understands."
Qin Chulai stayed in the courtyard for a while, and then he was about to leave. Mei Xiyu looked at Qin Chulai's back and asked with some confusion: "Where are you going, uncle?"
Qin Chulai said calmly: "Tiangong Si Guanxing Yamen."
As a place that represents the height of the great wind in the human world, the Tiangong Division is naturally more than just some mechanical skills.
What Liu Qinghe said to a certain boy under the umbrella was certainly not an exaggeration.
Hangu Temple, Mojian Cliff, and Tiangongsi in today's world have extremely far-reaching significance in the entire history of the world.
Mei Xiyu didn't ask any more questions, and walked all the way to the door, saying softly: "Uncle, walk slowly."
The Taoist left calmly.
Mei Xiyu was about to leave, but she saw the figure of a man in white walking slowly down the long street.
The story is very similar to the first scene when the Taoist came to Siwufang.
It was just a drizzle that day, and everything was gloomy.
But today the dusk is very peaceful and peaceful.
As a servant, Shui Zaiping seemed to have a different feeling for Mei Xiyu today.
The big demon in white walked slowly through the long street of Siwufang, stopped not far away, and looked at the dusk in the world.
"Your Majesty is coming back."
Water in the bottle said softly.
This is not a question, but a statement.
Tell the story of everything to come.
Mei Xiyu was silent for a while and said softly: "Yes."
Shuizi Ping didn't feel panic at all. Instead, he smiled softly and said, "For you, this is indeed a rare good thing."
Mei Xiyu said nothing, just stood there quietly.
Shui Zaiping turned around and looked at Mei Xiyu for a long time, and then asked him another question.
"Do you know why you got involved?"
Mei Xiyu raised her eyebrows and looked at the waiter in white, and then asked, "Why?"
Shui Zaiping said calmly: "Because Bai Yuyao is Empress Dafeng."
Mei Xiyu stood there in a daze.
Such a thing is indeed something that such a Taoist has never thought of.
Many questions that have been lingering in this Taoist's mind have finally been answered.
It seems that some older stories also have answers.
For example, why when Bai He and Beitai came with 300,000 Qingjia, Huaidu didn't drive them all away.
So some things have always been the emperor's family affairs.
How can water be mixed into the bottle?
This young and unknown servant stood there quietly, calmly telling the story of Bai Fengyu fifty years ago.
During the chaos on the twelfth floor of Qingtian Dao, Cong Ren's sword came from the years and cut off the Taoist's hopes.
Naturally, it is impossible for Tian Yu and His Majesty to turn a blind eye to the affairs of such a Taoist leader who is right next to Huaidu.
Bai Fengyu was seriously injured, and civil strife began in Qingtian Road.
In those stories, Jiang Shanxue's great uncle was beaten until he survived like an evil ghost.
In fact, the world has never been able to understand how the young Xie Chaoyu and Li Shanhe Bai Yuyao, who were still young in the world, calmed down the war in such a huge Taoist sect.
Maybe now we finally have the answer.
Behead the leader with a sword.
Huaidu intervened in the internal disputes in Qingtian Road.
At this point, the Qingtian Road was divided into three, and Li Shanhe and Xie Chaoyu broke away. One of them established a mountain and river view in the northwest of Huai'an, near the land of Luming, while the other went far to the East China Sea, and created the missing mountain on the vast sea. One door.
Mei Xiyu stood there for a long time, even though this Qing cultivator actually had a similar suspicion in his heart.
But when such a story was really revealed in an understatement by Shui Zai Ping, he still couldn't calm down.
After Han Gu Guan disappeared, it turned out that Dao Sect had really been living in the shadow of Jian Zong.
He seemed to be able to understand why when Li Shi and the others were doing what they did, the first thing they provoked was the conflict between the Human Sword Sect and Huaidu.
The sword sect is not in chaos.
The Taoist sect will never be in chaos.
Just like what happened to He Zong in the past.
Chen Qingshan was walking safely in the East China Sea, but he was pinned down by a sword cultivator named Zhong Saoxue who jumped out of nowhere.
Some stories have different meanings when viewed from the back to the front.
Shui Zaiping stood quietly in the dusk, turned to look at the Taoist who didn't know what he was thinking, and then said slowly: "You said you would come to the house for an appointment before, but I have been very busy and have no free time. Now that I’m probably not busy anymore, I wonder if Master Mei would be interested in coming to the house to have a talk?”
Mei Xiyu came back to her senses and looked at the servant who seemed sincere for a long time. Where the Taoist originally planned to go naturally no longer matters.
When Shui Zai Ping said something like this at this time, he naturally didn't want Taoist people to wander around anymore.
Mei Xiyu was silent for a while and said softly: "Okay."
