Youshi.
As Chu Qinghe and others returned to the inn, just when Chu Qinghe sat down, the waiter of the inn arrived at the door of Chu Qinghe's yard.
"Guest, guest, sir, Eunuch Cao from Dongchang is outside. He said he wants to see you, sir."
When speaking, the waiter's voice was somewhat stuttering, and his voice was full of fear.
During the whole process, he didn't even dare to raise his head.
Facing what the waiter said, even Qu Feiyan and the girls were not surprised at all, let alone Chu Qinghe.
After chuckling in his heart, Chu Qinghe said slowly: "Excuse me, second brother, please send a message and let Eunuch Cao come in!"
"It should, it should!"
After two nervous and uneasy responses, the waiter quickly responded and quickly turned around and ran away.
A moment later, when the waiter in the shop lowered his head to lead the way, two figures slowly walked to the door of Chu Qinghe's yard.
One of them has white silk hair, a slightly fat figure and a rosy complexion. He is wearing a red eunuch's men's clothing with black dots.
The smile on his face as he walked seemed to be the result of long-term flattery.
Who else could it be if it wasn't Cao Zhengchun?
The other person was dressed like a Dongchang stall, with a little rouge on his face like a woman, making him look neither yin nor yang.
After arriving at the entrance of the courtyard, Cao Zhengchun did not step directly into the courtyard. Instead, he stood at the entrance of the courtyard and said with a smile: "Cao Zhengchun of Dongchang came uninvited. I hope you don't take it personally."
There was a bit of sharpness in the feminine voice, and a bit of hoarseness due to age.
But the voice is loud and clear, giving people a feeling of confidence.
Facing Cao Zhengchun's behavior at this time, Chu Qinghe couldn't help but said slowly: "Eunuch Cao, please come in."
"Thank you, sir."
With that said, Cao Zhengchun raised his hand to signal, waved away the Dongchang stall beside him, and then entered the courtyard of Chu Qinghe alone.
After approaching, Cao Zhengchun gently raised his hand and clasped his fist slightly, "Cao Zhengchun has met the young master, met several girls, and met this little brother (after Qu Feiyan changed his appearance)."
Seeing Cao Zhengchun's greetings at this time, Jellyfish Yinji took it indifferently and nodded slightly in response.
Next to them, Qu Feiyan, Xiao Zhao and Lin Shiyin obviously didn't expect that Cao Zhengchun would greet them, and they were stunned for a moment before responding one after another.
Chu Qinghe raised his hand politely and said: "Eunuch Cao, please sit down."
Hearing this, Cao Zhengchun slowly sat down with a smile.
When Qu Feiyan walked up to Cao Zhengchun with a tea cup, Cao Zhengchun stood up slightly and took the initiative to take the tea from Qu Feiyan.
"Excuse me."
Perhaps he didn't expect that Cao Zhengchun, who had great power and was in the late stage of the Grand Master realm, would be such a humble and polite person.
As a result, Qu Feiyan couldn't help but look curiously at Cao Zhengchun in front of him.
After Qu Feiyan retreated and walked to Xiao Zhao and Lin Shiyin, Chu Qinghe said: "This tea is not very good. I hope Eunuch Cao doesn't blame me."
Cao Zhengchun responded with a smile: "Young Master's words are really embarrassing to our family."
While talking, Cao Zhengchun picked up the tea cup and drank a little.
When the tea was in his stomach at this point, the true energy began to flow in the body in an instant.
After confirming that there was nothing unusual about the tea, Cao Zhengchun took a few sips with confidence and then put down the teacup.
After quietly glancing at the women, Cao Zhengchun cupped his hands and said with a smile: "My subordinates were confused and were accidentally taken advantage of. They accidentally recruited the Iron Rust Sect to Dongchang's banner, but let the young master see it." It’s a joke, but fortunately the young master’s heart is like a clear mirror, this is why he failed to let others take advantage of him, we admire him.”
Obviously, after the news of the Rust Gate reached Dongchang today, Cao Zhengchun immediately asked people to investigate the situation of the Rust Gate, and thus understood Zhu Wuwu's plan.
After some deliberation, he also understood the warning that Chu Qinghe ignored Zhuge Yang when he left the token of Dragon Protection Villa on Zhuge Yang. "
Facing what Cao Zhengchun said, Chu Qinghe chuckled and said, "Eunuch Cao's words are too profound, which makes me a little confused."
Seeing that Chu Qinghe was pretending to be confused, Cao Zhengchun did not expose it. Cao Zhengchun still had a smile on his face and said: "This time, our subordinates are confused, so when our family learned about these things in the afternoon, it was already close to The idiot who agreed to block the Rusty Gate under the East Factory Gate and the remaining people in the Rusty Gate have all been dealt with."
When they learned that Cao Zhengchun had killed all the people in the Rusty Sect, the girls were a little startled.
Here, after a slight pause, Cao Zhengchun continued: "In addition, if the young master has other requests, please feel free to put them forward. If our family can do it, we will definitely spare no effort to express our apology."
Chu Qinghe chuckled and said, "You're welcome, Eunuch Cao. I'm just here to watch the duel this time. Why should Eunuch Cao bother so much?"
Cao Zhengchun said with a smile on his face: "Master, don't blame our family. Our family feels at ease now. We can sleep peacefully when we go back soon."
Later, after the two chatted in the courtyard for nearly a while, Cao Zhengchun took out a gold medal from his arms and placed it on the table.
"This is the token of Dongchang. Not only in the capital, but also in various towns of the Ming Dynasty, this token may be of some use. If the young master needs our help in some place in the capital, he can also use it This token goes to the East Factory."
After saying that, Cao Zhengchun slowly stood up and cupped his hands and said, "It's getting late, so we won't bother you anymore."
Hearing this, Chu Qinghe chuckled and said, "Eunuch Cao, walk slowly."
Seeing this, Cao Zhengchun said "goodbye" with a smile and then slowly walked outside.
Ten breaths later, after standing at the entrance of the courtyard and making sure that Cao Zhengchun was gone, Qu Feiyan quickly returned to Chu Qinghe and the others.
After sitting down again, Qu Feiyan put his chin on his hands and said, "I didn't expect the notorious Cao Zhengchun to be so polite."
Hearing Qu Feiyan's words, Xiao Zhao and Lin Shiyin couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Last night, Zhu Wuli walked to the entrance of the courtyard under the guidance of the waiter and stepped directly into the courtyard.
But at this time, when Cao Zhengchun walked into the courtyard, he felt an extra courtesy.
At this time, after entering the courtyard, they also greeted Qu Feiyan and the other girls.
And from the beginning to the end, Cao Zhengchun always had a smile on his face. Whether it was his tone or the words he used, he always had a sense of humility and courtesy.
Especially the orchid fingers that were pinched unconsciously gave Cao Zhengchun a bit of eunuch elegance.
It is worthy of being able to live in the palace for so many years, and still be able to reach the point where he is now in power.
In terms of etiquette, Cao Zhengchun has definitely reached the top of the eunuch industry.
Even when facing Chu Qinghe and others, this etiquette and respect was sufficient.
Cao Zhengchun's polite appearance before, if he wasn't dressed like a eunuch, anyone would look like a kind elder in the family.
If he had a simpler mind, he might have already had a favorable impression of Cao Zhengchun.
Chu Qinghe said slowly: "To be able to step up in the palace and now be so powerful, do you think it's just luck?"
After hearing what Chu Qinghe said, Qu Feiyan thought for a moment and said, "That's right. The emperor is not a fool. If a treacherous minister looks like a traitor, no emperor would reuse him."
Afterwards, Qu Feiyan glanced at the gold medal left by Cao Zhengchun on the table and said with a bit of surprise: "I didn't expect that Cao Zhengchun is really a member of the Qinglong Club."
When these words came out, Chu Qinghe and Jellyfish Yinji's expressions did not change at all, but Xiao Zhao and Lin Shiyin both looked at Qu Feiyan.
Lin Shiyin was even more puzzled: "Feiyan, how did you know that Cao Zhengchun is also a member of the Qinglong Society?"
Qu Feiyan held up half of his face with one hand and said, "If he wasn't from the Qinglong Society and didn't know our identities, how could Cao Zhengchun not take the initiative to ask about the identity of the young master from the beginning to the end? Unless he himself is We already know the identities of the young master and us."
Xiao Zhao and Lin Shiyin recalled quickly and found that during the conversation between Cao Zhengchun and Chu Qinghe, they did not name or identify Chu Qinghe.
Previously, Xiao Zhao and Lin Shiyin thought that Cao Zhengchun didn't know Chu Qinghe's identity, but now it seems that Cao Zhengchun didn't know Chu Qinghe's identity.
It's just that I didn't mention it on purpose.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhao suddenly said: "No wonder the content of the conversation between Eunuch Cao and the young master later was about which food in the capital is delicious or where the scenery is beautiful. Was it to deliberately delay time for Zhu Wuwu to see?"
Lin Shiyin next to her shook her head and said, "I didn't expect that Cao Zhengchun and Zhu Wuwu were both members of the Qinglong Club."
Faced with what Lin Shiyin said, Qu Feiyan sighed and said: "And judging from the current situation, neither Cao Zhengchun nor Zhu Wuwu knows that the other is a member of the Qinglong Society."
Jellyfish Yin Ji echoed: "A hundred years ago, the strength of the Qinglong Society was the strength of the Qinglong Society itself. I didn't expect that the Qinglong Society, which has turned from bright to dark after a hundred years, will feel even more terrifying."
At any time, although the enemy on the surface is awe-inspiring, there are traces to follow.
But those like the Qinglong Society who secretly plan their plans are often the scariest.
Just like now, Cao Zhengchun and Zhu Wuwu have been fighting for more than ten years, and even for the two of them, countless people have died in the past ten years.
But in the end, both of them were just pawns of the Blue Dragon Society.
If you think about it, even the jellyfish Yin Ji would feel shuddering.
Not to mention Jellyfish Yin Ji and the other girls, even Chu Qinghe felt a little sad after understanding the identities of Cao Zhengchun and Zhu Wuli.
Although Chu Qinghe knew that Qinglonghui and Bai Xiaosheng could play, he didn't expect that they could play to this extent.
It turned out that the secret layout began more than ten years ago.
The plan behind the Qinglong Society fully demonstrates how deep the water in this river and lake is.
At this time, after his mood eased a little, Qu Feiyan looked at the gold medal in his hand and said as if he had thought of something, "Huh? That's not right."
Immediately afterwards, Qu Feiyan quickly turned his head and looked at Chu Qinghe: "Sir, the token you left on Zhuge Yang's body today, isn't it also poisoned?"
After hearing this, the other three women looked at Chu Qinghe with deep curiosity in their eyes.
Facing the eyes of the women, Chu Qinghe said casually: "They have all been taken advantage of, isn't it natural to teach them a lesson?"
"really!"
After hearing Chu Qinghe's response, Qu Feiyan, Jellyfish Yinji and the other girls all had expressions of astonishment on their faces.
Qu Feiyan even shook his head and said, "I knew, Master, that you wouldn't just let it go so easily."
After saying this, Qu Feiyan asked with curiosity on his face: "Sir, what is the effect of the poison you put on the token today?"
Chu Qinghe said calmly: "I guess I will just vomit a few mouthfuls of blood today to give him some pain."
"Eh?"
After learning about the poisonous effect that Chu Qinghe had given to Zhu Wuwu, the girls all felt suspicious in their hearts.
This time, not to mention Qu Feiyan, even Xiao Zhao immediately noticed something was wrong and said, "How could the poison you administered today be so light?"
When the voice reached his ears, Chu Qinghe said angrily: "It seems like I have poisoned people before."
However, after saying these words, Chu Qinghe couldn't help but think about it and found that except for a few women, when he poisoned other people, he basically wanted to kill the other person to avoid future troubles.
In response, Chu Qinghe shook his head, and then said: "Although I just vomited blood today, after Zhu Wuli successfully used his true energy to force out the poison, during the process of forcing out the poison, the toxins in his body will combine with the true energy." Qi is latent in the upper Dantian.”
Knowing that there would be a follow-up, the women stared at Chu Qinghe motionlessly with their eyes flickering. Their curiosity was clearly visible even when they were disguised and wearing masks.
Qu Feiyan was the first to ask: "Then what?"
After rolling his eyes, Chu Qinghe continued: "Under the influence of these poisons, when he enters the Heavenly Realm, these poisons will take effect, and then three days later, the hidden veins around his upper Dantian will gradually re-close. , so that his cultivation level will fall from the original heaven-human realm to the perfect state of the grand master realm."
"Hiss~"
After understanding the effect of Chu Qinghe's poison on the token today, the women couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
The Heavenly Realm can be said to be a level in a warrior's life.
Being able to enter the realm of gods and humans will not only increase your strength greatly, but also increase your longevity.
The attraction to anyone is unimaginable.
But the poison of Chu Qinghe caused Zhu Wuwu, who had just broken through to the realm of heaven and human beings, to fall back to the perfection of the grand master realm.
Any warrior who changed this would probably have his mentality exploded.
I'm afraid it would make Zhu Wuli feel more uncomfortable than directly injuring Zhu Wuli or even killing him.
In response to this, Qu Feiyan couldn't help but murmured: "Master, if you inflict such poison, aren't you worried that Zhu Wuwu will directly hate you?"
Cutting off someone's money is like killing one's parents.
And destroying a person's cultivation is more serious than destroying a person's money.
After this incident, the relationship between Zhu Wuli and Chu Qinghe may be difficult to ease.
Seeing this, Chu Qinghe yawned and said slowly: "What's there to worry about? My poison will be lurking in the upper Dantian after he vomits blood. There won't be any poison before he enters the heavenly realm. Abnormally, when he enters the Heavenly Realm, there will be nothing strange around his upper Dantian except for the leakage of true energy and the sealing of hidden veins."
"When the toxin attacks and his Qi is re-closed, he will at most think that there is a problem in the practice of "Absorbing Power", instead of thinking about the poison I used."
While speaking, Chu Qinghe was also helpless.
That's the trouble sometimes.
It was clear that Qinghe didn't intend to openly conflict with anyone when he came here this time.
I just wanted to watch the show and then secretly poison him.
As a result, there will always be restless people who give it a try.
You have to suffer a loss before you can survive.
It's clear that he won't be obeyed until he's beaten.
"Um?"
Listening to these words, Qu Feiyan couldn't help but be startled, then scratched his head and said: "It seems to be the same."
The current Zhu Wuwu is not in the realm of heaven and humanity, and what Chu Qinghe said is that the poison itself is divided into two stages.
Even according to what Chu Qinghe said, Zhu Wuwu wanted to absorb the power of a master of the Heavenly Realm in the palace and then break through to the Heavenly Realm on the night of the full moon nine days later.
After such a long time, it was impossible for Zhu Wuli to suspect Chu Qinghe.
Thinking of this, Qu Feiyan couldn't help but shook his head and said: "It's so good, but I have to blame the young master. Now Zhu Wuwu is unlucky."
Jellyfish Yinji and the other girls nodded in agreement.
Taking into account the reactions of the women, Chu Qinghe remained as casual as ever.
Since he dared to administer this poison, Chu Qinghe had naturally calculated everything.
Otherwise, instead of forging a grudge against Zhu Wuli today, who might be retaliated against by Zhu Wuli at some point in the future, Chu Qinghe might as well just kill Zhu Wuli with medication today.
Afterwards, Chu Qinghe said calmly: "Okay, don't think about this anymore. It's time to play and recharge your batteries. With this incident, you can calm down for a while."
After hearing Chu Qinghe's words, the other women did not continue to delve deeper.
Anyway, with Chu Qinghe here, Chu Qinghe would consider anything immediately. For Jellyfish Yinji and Qu Feiyan, there really was nothing to consider.
….
Time flies.
In the next few days, Zhu Wuwu, Cao Zhengchun and Chu Qinghe seemed to have reached a tacit understanding invisible. Although they were both in the capital, neither Zhu Wuwu nor Cao Zhengchun took the initiative to find Chu Qinghe.
Chu Qinghe was also happy to see this, and he simply went out with a few girls every day as the sun rose and the moon came back.
As the time for the decisive battle between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue got closer and closer, more and more warriors gathered in the capital.
Almost walking on the street, if you look up, you can see several warriors with swords in their hands.
There are even some gambling stalls in the capital that offer bets on the outcome of the decisive battle between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue.
Many people flocked to place bets.
Until this August 15th, when night fell and the bright moon quietly jumped above the sky, almost 80% of the warriors in the city quickly moved towards the direction of the palace gate.
However, at this moment, at the gate of the imperial city, there was no longer the coolness and solemnity when night fell in the past, but instead there was constant noise.
