Chapter 21 Zhu Xie Si
Why me?
This question is not only puzzled by others, Liang Yue himself is also puzzled. Compared with those high-rollers, his painting is already very good without being ridiculed, but it can still be selected?
There is an inexplicable feeling of authority.
Compared with the so-called "intention", he even believed that it was because of his handsome appearance.
But no matter what, since he had chosen it, it was hard for him to refuse.
Liang Yue could only follow the maid's guidance and go to the quiet room in Qinxiang Garden under the envious eyes of everyone.
The scent of sandalwood lingers in the quiet room, separated by a screen. Behind the screen sits the graceful figure.
The red candle lights are warm, and the beautiful lady is here.
With a little anxiety, Liang Yue walked around the screen, and then saw a beautiful figure. In surprise, his pupils shrank slightly.
It's not a lie to look like a fairy.
Behind the screen is a spacious wooden couch with a small case on it. The woman sitting behind the case is wearing a peach red wide-sleeved skirt, with gold patterns embroidered on the collar and cuffs. Wearing a dazzling gold hairpin and bun with clouds, peach red and red gold complement each other to reflect a snow-white and translucent face.
With such a bright color, even the slightest flaw on her cheeks will be extremely obvious, but this woman not only held it, but also made it look as bright as fire. Her water-rimmed eyes, flowing eyes, slight hump on the bridge of her nose, and her crimson lips were all perfect.
But what surprised Liang Yue was not her beauty, but that he had seen this face before.
This person is none other than Zhu Xie Si Xingxing, Wen Yifan!
How could Miss Wen, whom I had met once on the street, become a musician in the Miaoyin Pavilion?
The white clothes and sword of that day, the flaming red dress of today, what has changed is the style, but what remains unchanged is the peerless appearance and the faint indifferent light. Such a bright face, without any expression, reminds people of that sentence, as beautiful as a peach and plum, as cold as ice.
Change your outfit and the feeling will be completely different.
"Sit." Wen Yifan raised his hand and pointed to the opposite side.
"Miss Wen..." Liang Yue sat down cautiously, looked left and right, and asked, "What's going on?"
Of course, he would not think that the other party was working part-time after get off work. He immediately thought that Zhu Xie Division might have some secret mission in Miaoyin Pavilion.
Sure enough, I heard Yifan reply: "I will tell you slowly, don't act too panicked, there are people outside, don't show your flaws."
"Yes." Liang Yue nodded lightly. Although his eyes were clear, his body suddenly relaxed, as if he really came to meet the beautiful woman.
"What are you doing here?" Wen Yifan asked first.
Everyone else would be stunned when hearing this.
This is a brothel. What else can you do here besides find good girls?
But Liang Yue immediately understood that the other party must have seen that his clothes and demeanor did not look like a scholar who came to have fun, and his face was righteous and awe-inspiring. He must have had another purpose here.
"It's unlikely that the salary you get from serving as a guard is for entertainment, right?" Wen Yifan said again.
"..." Liang Yue was silent for a moment and replied: "There is not much peace in our community recently. I am accompanying my colleagues to inquire about the news."
"Very good." Wen Yi Fan nodded and asked without delay: "Can you do me a favor later?"
Want my help?
Liang Yue was slightly hesitant. In his eyes, this girl Wen was synonymous with great powers. What could the other party need his help for?
However, he quickly responded: "Miss Wen, if you need my help for anything, it's okay to ask."
Since the other party has spoken, he must feel that he is competent, and there is no need for him to pass this point. Think more.
Wen Yifan cast a satisfied look, and then asked: "Do you know the origin of Zhuxiesi?"
...
"Is it to eliminate the Nine Martingale spies?" Liang Yue replied.
There are many rumors about the origin of Zhuxiesi.
It is said that after the Battle of Tianxia 26 years ago, the Jiu Yang tribe was defeated and willing to surrender to the Yin Dynasty. At that time, the Yin Dynasty was exhausted from long wars and the southern border was uneasy, so it agreed to end the war.
The Yin Dynasty suffered a tragic victory in this battle, and the battle was riddled with holes. The two sides entered a period of peace that continues to this day. However, the Jiu Yang tribe was so ambitious that they were unable to defeat the Yin Dynasty in a direct war. Shortly after the peace negotiations, they started a secret and huge spy plan.
They sent thousands of elite spies into the land of Kyushu to secretly understand and destroy the Yin Dynasty.
After decades of infiltration, some of these spies run shops, some enter various academies, some join Jianghu gangs, and some even become high-level officials of the court. They exist in various guises, looking for Yin Chao All weaknesses in the country. Whenever there is an opportunity, they will show their fangs, instigate officials to rebel, steal secrets, and incite rebellion.
Anything that can cause chaos in the Yin Dynasty is their goal.
And their organization is very tight. Sometimes even if some spies are exposed, it will not affect the actions of the others. It was not until ten years ago that the Yin Dynasty was fully aware of this huge infiltration plan.
Although the imperial court immediately began to eliminate them, these spies had penetrated too deeply. Any organization up and down the court might have hidden spies. The action plans were often known in advance. After several years of hard work, the results were still not great.
After taking office, Left Prime Minister Liang Fuguo proposed a plan to introduce Xuanmen immortal officials.
Xuanmen cultivators live in seclusion in the world and have been practicing on the Immortal Mountain. Their numbers are few and they are an organization that Jiu Yang spies can never infiltrate. If we can bring in their help, we can have an absolutely clean blade.
In the past history of the Yin Dynasty, Taoist cultivators were also invited to come down the mountain and were honored as "immortal officials". However, it was because of the riots of the monster tribes in the four seas and they were invited to eliminate the monsters in Kyushu. In this regard, the Qi Refiners had to be more professional.
It has never been done before to ask Xuanmen cultivators to deal with the Jiu Yang tribe, and I don’t know if they will be willing to help.
Liang Fuguo personally climbed to the Yujing Peak of Sanqing Mountain to meet Chen Yandao, the contemporary Zhangxuan Master, and finally invited Chen Yandao's direct disciple Chen Su.
Chen Su took over the important task of the Immortal Official and recruited people from the eight branches of Xuanmen to form the current Zhuxie Yamen. It has only been two and a half years.
For example, Wen Yifan's official position is "walking" and there is no formal rank. This is because they all come to help the court temporarily and must return to Yunwai Fairy Mountain sooner or later.
Seeing that Liang Yue knew about this, Wen Yifan did not waste any time on it, so he continued: "The Yu Wenlong you saw a few days ago is the one we dug out in the past two and a half years. The highest-ranking spy in the hall, he should have many secrets, but he died the night he entered the Zhuxie Division. "
"Dead?" Liang Yue was a little surprised.
The Zhuxie Division should have many ways to prevent the prisoners from committing suicide. In this case, Yu Wenlong will die. Could it be that the infiltration ability of the Nine Yang spies is so terrifying that they have already entered the Zhuxie Division that was just established two and a half years ago?
"Well, he died of poisoning." Wen Yifan didn't say much, and continued: "We didn't dig out any information from him, but his return speaks for itself."
"That's right." Liang Yue frowned and thought, "He had already escaped, but he still had to spend so much effort to return to the capital of God. There must be something he had to do. Is it to inform his comrades that he had been exposed? No, An organization like theirs must have a way of knowing who is in trouble. He should have something more important when he comes back, and this thing may only be known to him! Even his accomplices don't know about it... or they can't get it." br>
"You are very smart." Wen Yifan seemed a little surprised that this Congwei's mind was so flexible, and said along the way: "Our guess is the same, but Yu Wenlong's clue has been broken. Let's investigate All his actions in Longyuan City were tracked. Except for official dealings, the person with whom he had the closest contact was one of his best friends in Miaoyin Pavilion, named Fengdie."
" Oh..." Liang Yue suddenly said, "Miss Wen, you came here just to get close to that swallowtail?"
"Yes." Wen Yifan said: "I have been in Miaoyin Pavilion for two days, and I have not seen her interacting with anyone suspicious. It should not be Jiu Yang spies. But he secretly sneaked into her Shuibo Pavilion to search secretly. , and I didn’t find any items that might be related to Yu Wenlong. I suspect that Jiu Yang’s spy may also be keeping an eye on Fengdie. If Zhu Xiesi comes into contact with her directly, he might alert the enemy.”
“Fengdie. I have been staying behind closed doors for the past few days, and it is difficult for me to get in touch with her. Today, I originally planned to choose one of our people as the person to talk to, and then we would have a quarrel and use some pretext to drive him to Shuiboting to talk to Fengdie. , see if I can find some clues."
"But when I was playing the piano, I scanned the whole place with my consciousness in the sound of the piano, and found two suspicious people who seemed to be staring at our people. I'm afraid that he has been exposed. If he comes into contact with Fengdie again, he will still alert him. I happened to see you at this time, because you made a contribution when arresting Yu Wenlong, and it is impossible for me to collude with Jiu Yang's spy. I want you to help me complete this task."
Wen Yifan slowly explained how she chose Liang Yue.
But Liang Yue raised his head, feeling a little confused: "Me?"
He felt his shoulders sink inexplicably.
Is this a major matter related to the undercurrent between Yin Dynasty and Jiu Yang that I can do?
"Don't worry, if you wear this traveling jade talisman on your body, I can hear every word you say. If necessary, I can also directly transmit your voice to your spiritual consciousness and tell you how to answer. "Wen Yifan handed over an exquisite white jade talisman with complex formation patterns engraved on it.
Liang Yue took it. This small jade charm felt warm and cool to the touch, and seemed to have a fragrance.
Is this the legendary fairy weapon?
He held it, and suddenly remembered something. He took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it out: "I washed the handkerchief that Miss Wen gave me the elixir last time, and I was thinking of returning it to you when we meet again. I'm thinking of giving it back to you. I thought it would be rare to have a chance, but I didn't expect to see him again so soon."
Wen Yifan lowered his eyes and glanced at the square handkerchief folded in his palm, shook his head and said, "No, I'll give it to you. . ”
Good morning.
