Chapter 65 Chapter 65 Confused

Wu Zhuang blushed, but he was generous, and said with a sweet smile: "Brother Duan, as a 'little prince', you are willing to take such a big risk for us. You are a man of chivalry. I hope you can find a wife you like, and we will definitely welcome you when you come to Xiaojinchuan." The "we" she said, of course, included Liu Kang.With these words, she admitted her relationship with Liu Kang without any trace, and solved the emotional entanglement between Duan Jianqing and her. Duan Jianqing naturally only had a wry smile in his heart. Duan Choushi said: "Everyone has a place to go, now it's my turn to ask you, Jian Qing, what are your plans?"

Duan Jianqing hesitated for a moment, then said: "Although no one has come to investigate the yamen in Dali until now, I'm afraid that today's incident cannot be concealed for a long time. I think it's better for me to leave home temporarily." Duan Choushi said: "You can avoid the limelight temporarily, where do you want to go? Well, Xiaojinchuan is also a good place, but—" Duan Jianqing said: "I haven't mastered martial arts yet, and I can't help you in Xiaojinchuan. Uncle, I can learn some skills by traveling with you. Are you willing to take me with you?"

Duan Choushi said: "I'm going to Culai Mountain. The journey is difficult and dangerous. Can you endure the hardship?" Duan Jianqing said: "I'm already tired of living this kind of life as an anointed son. Uncle is willing to take me out to practice. I am willing to suffer any hardship." Duan Choushi smiled and said: "Okay, if you have the determination, I will take you there. When you arrive at Culai Mountain, maybe I can find a famous teacher for you." Miao Changfeng said: "We should go too." Immediately, he and Yun Ziluo bid farewell to uncle and nephew Duan Choushi.

Duan Choushi said: "I have to stay at home for one more day, and I can go to Culai Mountain with Jianqing tomorrow. Don't worry, Yunnv Xia, I will take care of your son." Miao Changfeng and a group of six people left Duan's house and walked for a while. When they arrived at a three-way intersection, Miao Changfeng said suddenly: "We should break up here too, Nephew Duan, you and your sister have Uncle Cheng as your companion. I am very relieved. When I see Liu Kang, please send my regards to him." Wu Duan was taken aback for a moment, and said: "Uncle Miao, won't you go to Xiaojinchuan with us?" He always thought that Miao Changfeng and Yun Ziluo would of course also go to Xiaojinchuan, so he was quite surprised.

Miao Changfeng smiled and said: "Originally, I should officiate the wedding ceremony for your sister. Fortunately, I have a good friend Meng Yuanchao in Xiaojinchuan. When you get there, you can ask him to ask Leng Tieqiao, the leader of the rebel army, to officiate Zhuanger's wedding ceremony." , that would be much more face-saving than me hosting it." Wu Duan said: "I'm not worried about my sister's wedding, but, Uncle Miao, why don't you go?" Yun Ziluo said: "I have something to do, and I need your uncle's help." Wu Zhuang gave his elder brother a wink, and said: "Since this is the case, we don't have to force the uncle. Let's meet again in Xiaojinchuan after your business is over."

When the backs of Miao and Yun could not be seen, Wu Zhuang said with a smile: "Brother, you are so confused!" Wu Duan asked in amazement, "Why am I so confused?" What is the relationship between Uncle Miao and Aunt Yun? Maybe we can drink their wedding wine first. But I was too embarrassed to laugh at them just now.” Wu Duan suddenly realized, and said, “Yes, Lady Yun and Yang Mu have divorced. No one can criticize Mr. Miao. If it really becomes a fact, it will be a good thing!" Wu Zhuang said with a smile: "There is no doubt about this good thing. It will definitely succeed. If you don't believe it, just wait and see!"

Although Yun Ziluo couldn't hear what the Wu Duan brothers and sisters were talking about, she could guess it. After seeing their backs disappear, she smiled wryly and said, "Changfeng, I really feel a little sorry for you, I shouldn't have made you feel bad." Miao Changfeng sighed: "Ziluo, you don't hesitate to wrong yourself in order to help others, so I feel sorry for you. Actually, why are you doing this?" Yun Ziluo drooped her pink neck, and said: "I just feel that I can't live with you, and that you have given you a false name." Miao Changfeng said: "We are not only brothers and sisters with different surnames, but also close friends who treat each other with sincerity. Our friendship will never change, will it?"

Yun Ziluo said: "I think pure friendship is the most precious, and sometimes it even surpasses the relationship between husband and wife, the relationship between lovers. Maybe others can't understand our friendship, so it's up to others to say. I think I'm right Your friendship will never change." Miao Changfeng said: "Okay, then listen to my advice." Yun Ziluo was taken aback for a moment, and said, "What do you want to persuade me?" Miao Changfeng said: "Go to Xiaojinchuan and meet Meng Yuanchao." Yun Ziluo lowered her head and remained silent.

Miao Changfeng said slowly: "Knowing each other is precious. Ziluo, I know what's on your mind. Yuan Chao is the only person you have ever loved in this life, and you will never treat another person like this again in the future." Feelings, am I right?" Yun Ziluo sighed: "I will restrain my own feelings. If I make a mistake once, I can't make a second mistake. Yes, he is the only person I have ever loved, and I will always miss him. But in the future I can only treat him as a good friend of mine, and I must not let him know the secret in my heart." Miao Changfeng sighed: "Why do you do this! It's not your fault that you married Yang Mu. It was a helpless thing in troubled times. At that time, you were pregnant and thought he was dead. Your body Marrying Yang Mu, your heart still belongs to Yuan Chao. Your love for him is still pure. Now that you and Yang Mu are divorced, why should you keep worrying about the mistakes of this marriage? Yuan Chao He is a heroic man, can't he forgive you?"

Yun Ziluo said: "He forgives me, but I can't forgive myself. What's more, we have been separated for ten years, things have changed, people have changed, and the old vows have long passed. I love him in my heart, and I can't increase his emotional turmoil." Miao Changfeng said: "I know you did it for Lin Wushuang's sake. I don't agree with you giving Yuan Chao to her." Yun Ziluo said: "Wu Shuang is like a lily in the valley, pure and flawless, I like her like a younger sister. I know that she has true feelings for Yuan Chao, but she doesn't know that I love Yuan Chao too. I would rather be sad than Frustrating her."

Miao Changfeng shook his head and said, "Even if you make up your mind, I still advise you to go to Xiaojinchuan to meet them. You shouldn't avoid Yuan Chao!" Yun Ziluo smiled wryly, "Then why bother?" Miao Changfeng said: "At least you still regard them as good friends. Isn't it? Why can't good friends meet? If the three of you can get together, maybe there will be a better way to untie your kudzu vines." .” Yun Ziluo shook her head and said, "But I don't want to do this. Now I just want to go to Tianshan to meet my godfather." Miao Changfeng said: "I will go to Tianshan to meet your godfather for you, don't forget that you have promised to make your youngest son my apprentice, and you can rest assured that you will be taken care of by me and your godfather." ?" Yun Ziluo said: "It's not that I'm worried about my child, but—" Miao Changfeng said: "There's no need to say 'but' anymore, you go to Xiaojinchuan to meet Meng Yuanchao. Speaking of the child, you should also tell Yuanchao about Hua'er!" Under Miao Changfeng's persuasion, Yun Ziluo's determination wavered a little, but she still hesitated. Suddenly the sound of hooves was heard, and two horsemen were going up the mountain.They were walking on a rugged mountain road, and they were turning into a valley at this time. They heard the sound of hooves, but they could not see anyone.Of course the two knights couldn't see them either. The horse walked very slowly on the rugged mountain road, and only one person said: "We are really unlucky. I thought that when we arrived in Dali, we could rely on the promotion of Sami Yuan to become a real-time officer. If we can make some military achievements, we will be rich and honored." Don't worry, who knows that when we arrive in Dali, we will send him a funeral!" The other said with a smile: "It's a blessing in disguise, how do you know it's a blessing? To be honest, I was really a little scared when I went to Xiaojinchuan with Shamiyuan. Meng Yuanchao is there, maybe our teacher's wife is there too. If they run into each other Ah, hehe, maybe I can still keep the guy who eats, but you may not be able to keep it!" Miao Changfeng quietly asked Yun Ziluo, "One of them seems to be Yang Mu's great apprentice, Min Chenglong?" Yun Ziluo said: "That's right, the other one is Yang Mu's second disciple, Yue Hao." Miao Changfeng said: "Min Chenglong is the worst kid. He is the one who got Beigongwang to work as a spy in the Zhenyuan Escort. This time it's in our hands, don't let him go." Yun Ziluo said: "Listen to what else they have to say." I only heard Min Chenglong say: "Hmph, you still recognize that prostitute as your teacher's wife, our master has long since abandoned her. I am not afraid of her! As the saying goes, the evil can outshine the good. She scolded the bloody dog!" Yue Hao said with a smile: "Actually, the way you deal with her is enough for her. I don't know if she knows it?" Min Chenglong said: "I know I'm not afraid. Now I'm an officer of the Imperial Forest Army, what can she do to me?" Yue Hao smiled and said: "You can't talk so full. If we are in the imperial forest army in Beijing, of course we don't have to be afraid of her. But if we meet suddenly, can you scold her and dismiss her? So I say it's not right this time." Serious military officers who lead troops, how can they know that they are not lucky?" Min Chenglong said: "You are really worthless. As a small captain in the Royal Forest Army, when will it be our turn to take the lead? Of course, it is better to be sent out to be a high-ranking officer in command of the army. Of course, if you want to get rich and famous, you have to be prepared to take some risks. In fact, how could such a coincidence meet such a whore as Yun Ziluo? You are worrying blindly!" Before the words were finished, suddenly there was a thud, Yun Ziluo appeared from the mountain, stopped their horse's head, and said with a sneer, "Min Chenglong, open your dog's eyes and see who I am?" Min Chenglong's shock was no small matter, he whipped Yun Ziluo down, raised the rein, and wanted to rush over. How could Yun Ziluo allow him to escape from the palm of her hand, she turned her back, grabbed the whip, pulled him off the horse, grabbed him and threw him up the hillside.At the same time, there was only a "gudong", Yue Hao didn't wait for Miao Changfeng to come and catch him, he was already terrified and fell off the horse. The rugged mountain road can only allow one horse to pass. The two frightened horses rushed forward, huddled together, kicked each other, and fell over in an instant.Miao Changfeng tied up the two mounts, then turned around and grabbed Yue Hao, and walked into the woods.Yun Ziluo had already escorted Min Chenglong into the woods. Yun Ziluo reprimanded: "What do you mean by being evil beyond righteousness? Are you willing to be the minions of the Tartars, and dare to be brazen and pretend to be an upright gentleman? Hmph, Min Chenglong, tell me, how are you going to deal with me?" Min Chenglong was frightened She was trembling, and was speechless for a while. Yue Hao just wanted to relieve himself, and quickly argued: "Master, this is none of my business. It was Min, Senior Brother Min who dragged me into the Imperial Forest Army. In fact, I just want to make a living, and I don't dare to hope for fame and wealth. This He forced me to come this time. How can I have the guts to fight against the rebels?" Yun Ziluo said: "What bad things did you do on the way, tell the truth!" Yue Hao said: "Min Chenglong did it all by himself, I dare not insult my wife." Yun Ziluo originally wanted to ask what they did to harm the rebel army, but she was startled when she heard him say that, and said, "What did he do to offend me? Tell me!" Yue Hao said: "He knew from Aunt Yang's place that you and Mr. Miao were together, and he circulated copybooks along the way, making up rumors about you. Say, talk about you... well, I dare not be rude to my wife, he, I, I can't say his foul language." Although he didn't dare to say it, Yun Ziluo understood it in her heart.With a sneer on her face, she thought to herself: "The big deal is that brother Miao and I are adulterers and prostitutes! It doesn't matter that he ruined my reputation, it's just that brother Miao was so tired that he was innocently slandered for me." Thinking to this point , couldn't help being filled with grief and indignation, and stared at Min Chenglong coldly. Min Chenglong peeped at Yun Ziluo's expression, and only said that she was determined not to spare his life.Immediately, he put his mind to one side, and simply braced himself to pretend to be a hero, and said with a sneer, "Yun Ziluo, kill me to silence you!" Yun Ziluo sneered and said, "You thought you would squirt blood, so I was afraid of you?" Min Chenglong said, "What is blood spitting? Isn't it eloping with a wild man now? Hehe, your 'good thing' 'It happened to happen to me, and if you don't kill me to silence me, I forgive you for not being able to rest in peace." Miao Changfeng said angrily: "This kid is trying to provoke you to dare not kill him with words, but I just ignore you!" He raised his palm and slapped him on the forehead slowly. He hadn't hit him before. It already made him teary and dizzy. Min Chenglong pretended to be a hero, but when he was about to die, he was so frightened that he trembled all over. He originally wanted to say "I will be a hero again in twenty years", but he couldn't say it. Yun Ziluo sighed suddenly and said, "Forget it, let him go!" Miao Changfeng said, "Let him go?" Yun Ziluo said: "We just want to be ashamed of our hearts, this kid is not worth our haggling with him." Miao Changfeng said: "Okay, capital crimes are forgiven, but life crimes are hard to forgive!" With a light slap, Min Chenglong felt as if countless sharp needles pricked his body, and the acupuncture points all over his body felt dull pain, and suddenly he spun and fell to the ground. Miao Changfeng said coldly: "I have already confiscated your capital for making Eagle Claws. From now on, if you use force with others, you will lose your life as soon as you use your true energy! Well, it all depends on whether you live or die. You are on your own, get out of here!" Enduring the pain, Min Chenglong got up, hugged his head and ran, Yue Hao chased after him to help him.Min Chenglong scolded: "You only want me to die to satisfy you, and now you're here to pretend to be courteous again." Yue Hao said awkwardly: "Brother, I have to say that just now." Min Chenglong became even more angry and said: "Just now you only asked yourself to get away, and you still have me as a senior brother in your eyes?" Yue Hao suddenly recalled what Miao Changfeng said just now, and said with a sneer, "Min Chenglong, don't put on airs like your elder brother, you are useless now, do you think I'm still afraid of you? Hehe, I treat you kindly, but you scold me, okay, then we will go our separate ways, I don't want to curry favor with you!" They hadn't reached the foot of the mountain yet, the noisy voice was still faintly audible, and Miao Changfeng was annoyed and amused when he heard it.Looking back, I saw Yun Ziluo's blank expression. Miao Changfeng said: "Ziluo, what are you thinking?" Yun Ziluo turned her face away, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said, "It's nothing, a grain of sand was blown into my eyes by the wind." Miao Changfeng laughed and said: "It's good that they left these two horses, we should go too." The two rode together, Yun Ziluo was depressed and did not speak along the way. Miao Changfeng couldn't help but said: "Ziluo, didn't you just say that we want to be honest, why bother to be annoyed by Min Chenglong?" Yun Ziluo said: "I'm not annoyed by him." Miao Changfeng said: "Then why are you so unhappy?" Yun Ziluo said: "I am annoyed by myself." Miao Changfeng sighed: "Ziluo, don't think about it, I advise you to go to Xiaojinchuan to meet Yuanchao." Yun Ziluo didn't say anything, but suddenly saw two more horses coming towards her, on the horses were two teenagers who seemed to be less than twenty years old, when the two teenagers saw her, they suddenly said "Ah!" , turned the horse's head and ran. These two teenagers are Yang Mu's two youngest apprentices, Song Pengju, who is ranked fifth, and Hu Liankui, the "closed disciple" who is ranked sixth.Among the six apprentices under Yang Mu's sect, these two are the youngest and the most innocent, and Yun Ziluo has always liked them better. Yun Ziluo was stunned for a moment, she hurried to catch up with them, and said, "Why are you hiding from me?" Hu Liankui said: "Master, oh, I don't know if I should still call you Mrs. I, I..." After saying two words "I", he gritted his teeth suddenly, burst into tears, and said, "I, I can not say!" Yun Ziluo said softly: "Although your master and I have broken up, you can still treat me as an elder, right? Have you heard some bad things about me?" Song Pengju said: "Master, we have always respected and loved you, but why did you break up with Master?" Hu Liankui said: "Master, I didn't believe the bad things that senior brother said, but, but..." Yun Ziluo said: "You believe it now, don't you?" Hu Liankui said: "Master, you should go back to Master. When you are with others outside, even if you behave properly, gossip is always unavoidable. Master, your reputation is damaged. We are apprentices. It’s not glorious either.” Yun Ziluo felt sad and a little angry at the same time, she thought to herself: "So they blamed me for making them lose face! These two children were originally pure and kind, but it's a pity that they have been nurtured by Yang Mu's family, and now Gradually, I only think about myself. But they are much better than Min Chenglong, and I can't just blame them." Hu Liankui was anxious and said: "Master, I am young and ignorant, if I say something wrong, don't mind." Yun Ziluo sighed and said: "You are still young, some things are difficult for you to understand. However, I can still tell you the reason why I broke up with your master. The biggest reason is that he and I It's not the same path." Hu Liankui and Song Pengju looked at the teacher's wife with blank and confused expressions on their faces. It seems that they haven't really understood the meaning of Yun Ziluo's words. Yun Ziluo said: "Let me ask you first, who is your master in your mind?" Song Pengju said: "Master is a famous martial artist in Jizhou, everyone we know respects him." Yun Ziluo said: "That's right, he is a very famous martial artist, but he has another identity, I'm afraid you don't know about it." Hu Liankui said: "What identity?" Yun Ziluo said: "A spy of the Qing court!" Song and Hu were taken aback, and shouted at the same time: "What, you say, you say Master is a spy?" Yun Ziluo said: "I will never speak ill of him just because I broke up with him!" Song and Hu looked at each other in blank dismay and kept silent. Without asking, they still couldn't believe Yun Ziluo's words. Yun Ziluo said: "What are you doing in Dali?" Hu Liankui said: "Brother asked us to come." Yun Ziluo said: "What does he want you to do?" Hu Liankui said: "He wants us to do things with him." Song Pengju seemed very dissatisfied with her cross-examination of "breaking the casserole" and said, "I don't know. I believe my brother will always arrange for us." Yun Ziluo said: "Does your master know about this?" Song Pengju said: "Of course we told Master, and Master encouraged us to come." Yun Ziluo said: "You don't know, but I do. Min Chenglong wants you to be like him, to be lackeys of the Qing court!" Song Pengju's expression changed, and he said, "Master, do you have evidence for what you said?" Yun Ziluo said: "Min Chenglong and Yue Hao have long been officers of the Yulin Army. If you don't believe me, you can chase down that road. It won't take long before you can see them. They are still wearing the uniforms of officers." After hearing this, both Song and Hu were dumbfounded. After a long while, Song Pengju murmured: "Why did the senior brother lie to us? Didn't he expose his deception as soon as we arrived in Dali?" Hu Liankui said: "He made an appointment to wait for us in Dali. And he's not in the city?" It seemed that they still had doubts about Yun Ziluo's words. Yun Ziluo said: "He thought that when you arrived in Dali, you fell into his hands and could only obey his orders. At that time, in the Tartar's 'General's Mansion', were you afraid that you would know his identity?" Hu Liankui was taken aback, and said, "What's in the 'General's Mansion'?" Yun Ziluo said: "Min Chenglong was ordered by Bei Gongwang, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, to come to Dali to assist the Qing court's 'General Dingbian' in leading troops to Xiaojinchuan to fight. Bei Gongwang's most powerful officer, a novice Yuan is also in the 'General's Mansion', this novice is also Min Chenglong's backer in Dali. Are you willing to give your life to the Qing court to fight the rebels?" Hu Liankui gritted his teeth and said, "Of course not!" Yun Ziluo said: "I'm just afraid that you will fall into his trap and find it difficult to extricate yourself. But fortunately, a big event happened in Dali last night, and the trap he set up is already indestructible." Hu Liankui was startled and asked, "What's the big deal?" Yun Ziluo said: "His backer Sha Miyuan, and Sha Miyuan's chief 'General Dingbian' were killed last night. He and Yue Hao escaped from Dali. Well, now I have said Now that you know, are you still going to Dali?" Song and Hu stayed for a while, then said: "Thank you, Master, for your guidance. Of course, we won't fall into the trap. Let's go home immediately." Yun Ziluo said: "You can take a small path over there to go back, and you can meet your senior brother and second senior brother on the way. Yue Hao is not too bad, he has already fallen out with Min Chenglong, you see Let your second senior brother go back with him." Hu Liankui choked up and said, "Master, you are a good person, but I have something that may be childish to tell you, please don't be offended." Yun Ziluo said: "Just tell me." Hu Liankui said: "Master, you should go home too. I dare not persuade you to get back together with Master, but it's fine if you go back to your mother's house. Oh, you are a good person, I understand, but I'm afraid others don't understand!" Yun Ziluo understood what he meant, and couldn't help smiling wryly in her heart, thinking: "He doesn't want to see me with a man who is not my husband, for fear that I will cause people to gossip, but he doesn't know that I have long since lost my mother's family." Song and Hu's horses had gone far away, but Yun Ziluo was still in a state of confusion, as if her heart had been trampled by a horse's hoof, and she was in pain.Miao Changfeng walked slowly to her side and said, "Zi Luo, you should be happy, why are you sad again?" Yun Ziluo said: "I'm not sad! Although I have nothing to be happy about." Miao Changfeng smiled and said: "You saved two young and ignorant children from going astray, isn't that something to be happy about? However, if you say you have nothing on your mind, you are probably lying to me." Yun Ziluo said: "There are things on my mind. But I'm not as sentimental as you imagine." Miao Changfeng said: "Ziluo, you are not an ordinary woman, I know you can withstand the blow. But I still want to ask you." Yun Ziluo said: "Speak!" Miao Changfeng said: "They I heard everything they said, did you feel moved by what they said?" Yun Ziluo sighed slightly: "Our friendship is beyond their comprehension." Miao Changfeng said: "I'm not afraid of gossip, but I still want to advise you to see Yuan Chao." Yun Ziluo sighed: "Yes, we should also break up now." Miao Changfeng said happily: "Okay, then you promised me to go to Xiaojinchuan?" Yun Ziluo said blankly: "I don't know where I want to go. But the world is so big, I think I will always have a place to go." Miao Changfeng frowned, but after a while, he put on a smile again and said suddenly: "Zi Luo, look at the primroses blooming. Once the flowers bloom, spring will come." Yun Ziluo was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Spring is here, so what?" Miao Changfeng said: "Yuan Chao once told me that primroses bloom very early in Xiaojinchuan. If you go to Xiaojinchuan, you can just catch up with spring. I hope that the haze in your heart will come out in spring." It all dissipated in the sun." Yun Ziluo said: "Thank you for your kindness. But I think there will be spring everywhere, and I hope you can find your spring too." Miao Changfeng smiled wryly, "Ziluo, what you said is very good, I will remember what you said." The emotions of the two were very complicated, and they separated with hope and regret. Yun Ziluo watched his back, gradually drifting away, and finally disappeared. "Should I go to Xiaojinchuan and see Meng Yuanchao again?" The primroses on the roadside swayed in the wind, as if nodding and smiling at her.She still can't make up her mind.
