Chapter 299: The Passion of Silence
When the maid found the body of the eldest princess, it was already dusk, and all the bones in the princess’s body were broken.
Princess Yingmo was also unconscious on the side. Fortunately, her head was only injured.
Six doors immediately blocked the scene.
In order to prevent heated discussions and panic, all the maids and servants in the house were confined to the courtyard and were not allowed to go out.
Soon after, the residences of several ministers and even the emperor's relatives were attacked by mysterious assassins. For a time, the situation was aroused and people were panicked.
Prince Zhen’s Mansion.
After Princess Yingmo regained consciousness, the Six Doors Dragon and Tiger Department conducted detailed questioning on her before leaving.
In the room, the pale-faced Princess Yingmo watched the officials from the six gates leave, and the fearful and uneasy look on her face immediately disappeared and turned into indifference.
The rich-looking King Zhen and his wife returned to the room after seeing off the guests.
Seeing the appearance of her "daughter", the princess who was crying before did not dare to cry anymore and stood aside timidly.
King Zhen was uneasy and rubbed his hands from time to time.
"You guys did a good job."
Princess Yingmo... To be precise, Nightingale casually tore off the bandage on her forehead and said lightly, "The most beautiful thing in the past two days has been... It’s better not to leave the house.”
“I understand, I understand.”
King Zhen and Princess nodded repeatedly.
Although he is a relative of the royal family, King Zhen is more like an ordinary wealthy businessman with no power and power. Sometimes the emperor even forgets that he has such a younger brother.
When Kowloon seized the throne, he did not end up with the fate of death or imprisonment like other brothers.
The reason why he survived the power seizure and liquidation was because of the big boss Zhuge Xuanji.
To a certain extent, King Zhen is more like a pawn of Zhuge Xuanji.
It was Zhuge Xuanji's instruction that allowed them to adopt Mo Ruye's daughter.
No one would have thought that the remnant of the Mo family would be adopted by his brother under the eyes of the emperor in the capital.
At this time, a breeze blew.
In the blink of an eye, an old man wearing a Taoist robe appeared beside the bed.
"Mr. Zhuge."
The two kings of Zhen quickly handed over their hands.
Zhuge Xuanji stroked his beard and smiled: "This girl has caused trouble for you."
"No, no." King Zhen waved his hand.
Realizing that Zhuge Xuanji wanted to talk to his apprentice, King Zhen tugged on his wife's sleeve, and the two of them exited the room.
Zhuge Xuanji looked at the injury on his apprentice's head and said with a smile: "You girl acted too impulsively. No matter how much you hated the eldest princess, you shouldn't have taken action at this time. It hurt me, I hired a killer to cover up for you.”
"I couldn't hold it back."
Nightingale was still angry, "That woman deserves a beating."
"Just to avenge Jiang Shouzhong's brother?"
Zhuge Xuanji shook his head and sighed, "Children love each other, children love each other. Compared to Ran Qingchen, you are the one who worries most.
The reason why Jiang Wan married your mother in the first place , just want to take advantage of your Mo family's natural ruthlessness and plant the ruthless sword in Ran Qingchen's body to prevent that girl from being emotional
It's a pity that Jiang Wan still failed. As I said, everyone has his own destiny, and no one can truly control the destiny of himself and others.
But if you are emotional, the consequences will be more serious than being caught in a light dust.
Why did the imperial court execute everyone in the Moh family? Isn't it because they were afraid that the "heartless death" of the Moh family would spread and bury the entire capital and even the world with it? "
Nightingale sneered and said: "It's just an excuse. It's not because my mother refused to tell the clues about the remains of the First Emperor. "
"You girl, don't let the wind be the wind and the rain be the rain. ”
Zhuge Xuanji looked helpless. "The relics of the First Emperor are all lies."
Nightingale stretched, then picked up the teapot next to her and took a few sips, then curled her lips and said: "I don't care anyway, the court will kill you My Mo family is the truth, I will let this continent go to hell."
Nightingale glanced at Zhuge Xuanji: "According to the plan, the second prince of Shu can take action at most. , and has promised me to cooperate.”
The second prince that Nightingale mentioned was Zhou Zong.
After the death of the former prince Zhou Huan, Concubine Lan was also thrown into the cold palace, and the little princess was killed on her way to the Yin and Yang Gate.
The second prince was sent to Shu as the vassal king.
But from this point of view, Zhou Hao's wisdom is not low, but he deliberately hid his clumsiness in front of his eldest brother Zhou Hao.
"He promised that you won't be surprised."
Zhuge Xuanji popped out a copper coin, landed it in his palm, and said with a smile, "The temptation of the throne is too great. As long as there is a chance to fight for it, I will never let it go.”
“What hexagram?”
Nightingale asked casually.
Zhuge Xuanji picked up the copper coin between his fingers and spit out two words: "Big disaster."
The nightingale sarcastically said: "Charlatans, big disaster is the big disaster. Anyway, I can't wait any longer. At worst, I will die." . If it succeeds, give the throne to my little brother Jiang.
Don’t whine about the inadequacy of love between children. During the time we were together, we slept in the same bed several times. This time, I was touched by him, and I will be his for the rest of my life."
Zhuge Xuanji said: "This hexagram is not calculated for you, but for Jiang Shouzhong."
Nightingale was stunned and frowned: "Is there danger in Huoyun Mountain?"
Zhuge Xuanji smiled and said: "Sometimes, the safer a place feels, the more dangerous it is."
——
As a well-known sect in Jianghu, although Huoyunshan is difficult to compare with sects with representative orthodoxy status such as Zhenxuanshan and Wanshoushanchuan, it is still considered a major sect in the hearts of Jianghu people. Holy place.
The main reason is the founding master who was once called the "Evil God" - Ancestor Huoyun.
This person and the founding emperor of the previous dynasty were brothers.
After helping his brothers to seize the throne, he devoted his life to the world, and his fists were almost invincible in the world.
He also personally built a pair of iron armor called "Heavenly Tribulation", which was invincible.
This person acts unruly and does not distinguish between good and evil.
Whenever you meet someone you like, you will call them brothers. The most famous mantra is: Since you and I are so destined, why don't we sworn brothers.
For a person with such a personality, there are naturally many ways to look for his successor.
The current leader of Huoyun Mountain is named Zhang Kuangtu.
This guy is an old drunkard. He keeps disappearing all day long, and his behavior is quite absurd. At first, he caught a rooster from nowhere and said that he and Brother Chicken would become brothers and give up the position of leader to Brother Chicken.
So the affairs of Huoyun Mountain are mostly handled by the great elders.
At this time, the Great Elder of Huoyun Mountain looked at Li Nanshuang, who was soaking in the large wine jar and in a semi-conscious state, with his frosty white brows frowning.
"Although Nan Shuang's life was saved, most of her body has lost consciousness, and her lower limbs are completely petrified. Even our thousand-year fire wine from Huoyun Mountain cannot cure her."
The Great Elder sighed. , looked at Shi Luoxia, "Luoxia, I'm afraid Shuang'er will have to live in a wheelchair from now on."
Pa!
As soon as the great elder finished speaking, he was slapped on the back of the head.
Yan Xishi put his hands on his hips and cursed angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, what a wheelchair, what no rule of law, believe it or not, I will cut you off? My Shuang'er will have another baby in the future."
The elder was also helpless towards his junior brother, the fierce Hedong lion wife, and cast a look at Shi Luoxia asking for help.
Shi Luoxia coughed dryly and said to her daughter-in-law:
"What senior brother means is that Shuang'er's condition won't be cured for a while. We have to think about it in the long run. If we act rashly, Radical treatment will worsen her injuries."
The elder nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that's right." Yan Xishi stared at her eyes: "How should I treat it?"
The two senior brothers stared at each other, not knowing how to answer.
Seeing that her daughter-in-law was about to have another attack, Shi Luoxia quickly said:
"We will wait for the master to come back in a few days and then we will think of a way. The master will definitely have a way. Let that kid do it in the next few days. Accompanying Shuang'er can be considered as cultivating more feelings, right?"
Yan Xishi's face softened and asked: "What about the kid? He won't be knocked unconscious by you again."
Shi Luoxia rolled up her sleeves and snorted coldly: "As soon as this kid wakes up, he'll be yelling about going to the capital to find a wife. I'll just tie him up with a sky spider web in the bamboo forest in the back mountain. Out of sight, out of mind."
"This is a good man, it proves that he is infatuated."
Yan Xishi said.
Shi Luoxia suddenly smiled and said: "What Madam said is that this is a good man, just like me."
Yan Xishi rolled his eyes: "I will persuade that boy , you guys think about how to treat Shuang'er."
"Daughter-in-law, I will go with you."
"Get out."
Yan Xishi kicked and headed towards the bamboo forest behind the mountain.
When I came to the bamboo forest, I saw Jiang Shouzhong tied up in a large spider web, like spider food.
“You brat, are you hungry?”
Yan Xishi took out an egg like a magic trick and tossed it in his hand.
Jiang Shouzhong turned his eyes weakly and said helplessly: "Mrs. Yan, can you put me down first?"
Through these two days of getting along, Jiang Shouzhong had a general understanding of these people in Huoyun Mountain. I was especially impressed by Yan Xishi, who had a fierce personality and was a master of master Luo Xia.
This woman is not very beautiful, at most delicate. She has a bad temper and even lower cultivation level.
I don’t know how the boss’s master likes her.
Yan Xishi sneered: "What? You still want to go to the capital? Do you know that Shuang'er is no different from a dead person now? She can't move. She became like this because of you."< br>
Jiang Shouzhong looked guilty and said softly:
"Mrs. Yan, whether you believe it or not, I will take care of the boss for the rest of my life. However, I have some urgent matters that need to go to the capital now. I will wait until I finish this matter." I will come back to pick up Nan Shuang."
"Is your urgent matter more important than Shuang'er?"
Yan Xishi was furious and said coldly, with his hands on his hips, "Jiang Mo, from the capital. I have understood the situation. Now go to the capital. Do you think you will be able to see your wife alive? Do you think the court will watch you running around in the capital?
Your wanted order has been issued now. If you dare to leave Huoyun Mountain, the inner guards will come to arrest you
Over in the capital, I will send someone to explain the situation to your wife. Don't think about leaving, Shuang'er has been implicated by you, and you have to take on this responsibility no matter what.
What's more, you are injured like this now, and most of your meridians are damaged. Whether you can practice in the future is another matter. "
Jiang Shouzhong remained silent.
Yan Xishi told the truth. After he arrived in the capital, the first person he faced must be the internal guards, not Ran Qingchen.
It can be said that when he went to the capital, he threw himself into a trap
It's just... he really needs to meet Ran Qingchen and explain clearly.
Three days have passed since the wedding, and I don’t know how the Ran family is doing.
What's more serious is that Ran Qingchen and Qu Hongling's sworn relationship with Jinlan has also been exposed, and they are afraid that the court will be angry with Ran's family, which will be detrimental to Ran Qingchen.
The center of Jiang Shou was in chaos.
What bothered him even more was that Hong'er's whereabouts were unknown.
At Li Nanshuang's request, Shi Luoxia went back to the desert to look for Qu Hongling, but found nothing.
I only knew that Sha Nu, who was fighting with Qu Hongling, was seriously injured.
"Boy, I'm leaving my words here. If Shuang'er can really only sit in a wheelchair in this life, then you must marry her and stay with me in Huoyun Mountain for the rest of your life!"
Yan Xishi’s tone was domineering, leaving no room for negotiation.
Jiang Shouzhong said bitterly: "Then can you put me down first? I am a useless person and I can't run away even if I want to. At least let me see the situation of the leader."
Yan Xishi hesitated for a moment and waved gently.
Plop!
Jiang Shouzhong fell to the ground.
Yan Xishi threw the egg to the man and said calmly: "First fill your stomach, take a shower and change clothes. Over in the capital, I will send someone to investigate and explain."
said After that, the woman turned and left.
After just a few steps, the woman ran back in a hurry and slapped the man on the back of the head:
“If you dare to run, I will break your legs and let you spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair with Shuang’er. !”
“I understand, I understand.” Jiang Shouzhong said with a smile.
Yan Xishi snorted coldly before leaving the bamboo forest.
Jiang Shouzhong got up from the ground, sat on a bamboo pole, looked up at the sky in a daze.
"Qingchen, will you forgive me?"
......
After bathing and changing clothes, Jiang Shouzhong came to the small courtyard where Shi Luoxia lived.
In the courtyard, the famous Shi Luoxia was sitting at the door sewing clothes. Jiang Shouzhong was stunned by this scene.
Inexplicably, he thought of Master Luoxue again.
In the wine vat next to him, Li Nanshuang was lazily yawning after waking up.
The girl only showed one head.
Looks rather strange.
Seeing Jiang Shouzhong appear, the girl's beautiful eyes lit up: "Stew noodles!"
"Boss."
Jiang Shouzhong walked to the wine vat, looked at the girl's current appearance, felt a pang in his heart, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, boss, it's all my fault."
Li Nanshuang still had that sunny expression, shaking his head. He smiled and said: "It has nothing to do with you. In fact, it's a miracle that I survived. I think the braised noodles must be secretly blessing me."
"Haha."
Luoxia, the master at the door Let out a taunt.
Yan Xishi, who was cooking in the kitchen, came over, scooped a spoonful of wine into the wine vat, and handed it to Jiang Shouzhong: "How does it taste? My Shuang'er's bath wine."
"Master's Wife!"
The girl's face turned red and she glared at the woman fiercely.
Jiang Shouzhong didn't care. He opened his mouth and drank it. His abdomen immediately felt hot, but the wounds on his body miraculously healed a lot.
Yan Xishi nodded with satisfaction, whispered in Jiang Shouzhong's ear: "This girl may have peed in the wine vat."
"Ahem, cough, cough..."
Jiang Shouzhong choked.
Of course, he knew that the mistress was joking, but he always felt that it was weird for a woman to say this to him.
The next words from his wife made him unable to calm down.
"You guys can get married tonight."
