Chapter 21 Chapter 20 Burning Heart

There was a splash of water, and someone's head came out of the water.Strands of water fell down the hair and flowed onto the slightly pale face. It is autumn wind. No matter how turbulent the situation on the river is, he can always escape, and even the weird Tibetan fire will not burn him to death.Not only did he not die, but he was still firmly grasping a person with his right hand. That man was dressed in black, had no hair, and looked haggard, he was obviously Yao Guangxiao. Qiu Changfeng carried Yao Guangxiao on his shoulders and staggered ashore. When he put Yao Guangxiao on the weeds on the bank, he gasped slightly.Just now he dragged Yao Guangxiao across the river from underwater to the shore with great force, and up to now, he still can't help but be terrified.

The Yunleng River was rolling, and the emerald green fire had already burned far away, until it reached the end of the river. The blue fire and ashes smoke rushed to the sky, bringing a sense of chilling and coldness to the east where the sunset is all over the sky. Although the river is chaotic, in the eyes of Qiu Changfeng, it is undoubtedly much cuter than the green river just now.Looking back, I saw Yao Guangxiao sitting up, also looking at the river, and calmly said: "It's a big fire." Both of them were in a mess like a drowned rat.But Yao Guangxiao never changed his eccentricity, just like Qiu Changfeng never changed his tranquility.

There was a big fire just now, and the moment of life and death, Qiu Changfeng couldn't help sweating, but Qiu Changfeng noticed that Yao Guangxiao was the only one on board who was still as dumb as ever. Yao Guangxiao didn't seem to know that fire could burn people to death, that he had to run for his life, that he might never see the setting sun again. Yao Guangxiao acted as if nothing had happened. Qiu Changfeng always felt that Yao Guangxiao couldn't be more sober, and Zhu Di was inseparable from the great tomorrow and the present Yongle and prosperity, but there is no need to deny that Yao Guangxiao also played an extremely important role in it.

The Yongle Grand Ceremony was repaired, the canal was reopened, the north and south of the Ming Dynasty resumed trade, the scars of the war were repaired, the Tatars and Wacha were conquered several times, the hidden dangers of the Ming Dynasty were eliminated, and the Chinese morality was spread across the West.Through these things, Zhu Di brought peace to the world and raised the national prestige of Ming Dynasty, which is known all over the world, but Yao Guangxiao participated in most of these great achievements. Now that "Song of the Sun and Moon" is coming out, it is very important for Zhu Yunqi to use the power of Dongying to restore the throne. Even if Zhu Di entrusts Zhao Wang and Jin Yiwei with the task of calming the chaos, Qiu Changfeng has long seen that what Yao Guangxiao has to do The matter is far more important than Zhao Wang, and it will definitely be related to Zhu Yunqi.

Zhao Wang and Jin Yiwei went to the East China Sea to calm the chaos, but it was only a temporary solution.Yao Guangxiao's going to Jinshan is the root cause. Jinshan's remaining gatha must be the key to "Song of the Sun and Moon". Because in Zhu Di's view, even the biological prince and the King of Han cannot be completely relied on, only Yao Guangxiao is the most trustworthy person. But why does such a trustworthy person seem insensitive? Thinking of this, Qiu Changfeng couldn't help but wryly smiled, and he also began to believe that there is really a force in this world, called the Hundred Thousand Demon Army.Can Zhu Yunqi command the 100,000 demon army and defeat the Ming Dynasty's millions of soldiers?

How can Zhu Yunqi command a hundred thousand demon army? This was originally like a myth, but Yao Guangxiao firmly believed in it.Qiu Changfeng believed Yao Guangxiao's letter a little bit, but seeing Yao Guangxiao's expression of seeing death as if he was at home just now, Qiu Changfeng's belief was somewhat shaken. Zhu Yunwen is crazy, so all he does is crazy things, Yao Guangxiao also looks crazy, otherwise he is not afraid of death? When Qiu Changfeng thought of this, his meticulous thoughts became confused. He looked at Da Jiangdong and said, "No matter how big the fire is, it will burn out sometime."

The green fire ends, and the sunset glows like fire.That green fire seemed to burn into the sky... Yao Guangxiao smiled contemptuously, and said, "You didn't disappoint us." He used us, as if he and Zhu Di... Qiu Changfeng fell silent, he could understand Yao Guangxiao's words, he knew what we meant, but he had nothing to say, this is one of his secrets. A secret he can't tell anyone now. Looking at the bloody setting sun, what he thought was not the tragedy on the river just now, but suddenly thought of the bloody year. The past is hard to recover, but the past is unforgettable.

He will always remember the dusk when the willow silk was like rain, he held the steamed bun that had long been dry and cracked, and looked at the bridge head infatuatedly. The willow color of Baqiao hurts each year. Under the willow colors, there are pink clothes fluttering, and the jade face is praying, staring at it all day long.But he turned around after all, and sank into the darkness step by step. Sometimes, missing is a lifetime. Sometimes, there is no turning back when you choose. In the season when the willows are soft and the catkins are all over the sky like snow, he takes one last look at the little white jade-like hands holding on to the railing, and walks on a road that cannot be turned back without hesitation. He walks resolutely, because he was still young at the time...

While contemplating, Yao Guangxiao said, "Let's go." Qiu Changfeng put away his thoughts, frowned, and still looked at the river, hesitating a little. There are four people in Xiaozhou, but only two are on the shore now, and Yao Sansi and Wuhun are both missing.On this vast river, no matter how conceited Qiu Changfeng was, he didn't expect to fish the two of them out of the river. At the critical moment of life and death, he can only save his master, he has no choice. In his heart, he felt guilty for Yao Sansi with big eyes and thick eyebrows, but he couldn't do more.He only hoped that Yao Sansi could swim.

But this is the Yangtze River, the waves are rolling, and those who can swim may not survive. Yao Guangxiao stood up, and Qiu Changfeng also stood up. He wanted to ask something, but Yao Guangxiao was already dragging his wet body to the east, so he had no choice but to follow. The two couldn't find the boat, and even if they found it, they probably wouldn't be in the mood to take it.You can only go east along the Yangtze River and go down the river, which is the direction of Jinshan. Obviously, Yao Guangxiao still wanted to go to Jinshan. Although he is old, he still acts resolutely.People who can achieve great things in this world will go on without looking for a goal, and will not easily give up halfway.

Yao Guangxiao is obviously the one who does big things. Qiu Changfeng followed Yao Guangxiao, and his breathing gradually became calm.The turbulent storm passed, although he was walking, his physical strength gradually recovered.He had had seven years of hard training like hell, seven years of patience like insects and ants, and it took him three years to go from a school captain to a thousand households, and even be appreciated by Yao Guangxiao. There is nothing easy in this world. Those more than ten years of tempering made his seemingly thin body contain gushing strength. But Yao Guangxiao's breathing gradually became heavy, and the autumn wind was rising like the sun, but Yao Guangxiao was late.Qiu Changfeng waited for Yao Guangxiao to rest before leaving, when suddenly there were footsteps in the woods ahead. Qiu Changfeng's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't take the visitor seriously.He heard the man's heavy footsteps and gasping for breath. He was obviously not an expert, and he was most likely a villager from the surrounding villages. When he saw the man's face, Qiu Changfeng was a little dazed, knowing that his deduction was wrong. When the person on the opposite side saw the two of them, he also froze on the spot. The clothes on the man's body were also damp, with strands of hair sticking to his forehead, his expression was exhausted, his big eyes stared like lanterns, and after a while, he exclaimed: "Master, swing household, is it you?" That person was Yao Sansi. Qiu Changfeng didn't expect that Yao Sansi would not be drowned by the torrential river, so he was a little surprised and said after a while, "You... are looking for us?" Yao Sansi's face was slightly red, and he was silent for a long time before saying: "Yes..." In an instant he cheered up and said, "Lord Qianhu... Master, what should we do now?" Yao Guangxiao looked into the distance indifferently, and murmured: "As long as you don't die, you will go to Jinshan. Let's go." He stopped talking and walked eastward. Qiu Changfeng took another look at Yao Sansi and thought to himself, if Yao Sansi was looking for us, he would only wait and search along the river instead of leaving the river bank.He was heading back to Nanjing... Could it be that he has the intention to retreat?Alas, I shouldn't have brought him out. He felt somewhat regretful, not because he thought it was useless to bring Yao Sansi out, but because he suddenly felt that the future was dangerous, far beyond his imagination.People like Yao Sansi might die on the road if they are not careful. But he still didn't say anything after all, just followed Yao Guangxiao eastward. Yao Guangxiao was right, as long as he didn't die, he would always go to Jinshan.This is fate, his and Yao Guangxiao's fate! Yao Sansi watched the two of them go away, and suddenly felt extremely ashamed on his face.Indeed, as Qiu Changfeng guessed, he just had the idea of ​​going home.This Baihu, who always yearned for adventure, suddenly thought of his sister who refused to let him take risks at the moment of life and death.He didn't understand before, he didn't understand the pain of life and death in the world.After I understood it, my desire to go back and see my sister was stronger than ever. There were four people on the boat just now, but in a blink of an eye he was the only one left facing the river alone.Not only did he miss his elder sister at home, but he also felt fear like never before.Sometimes adventure is not as fun as imagined. It can be seen that the two people in front of them are steadfast, courage suddenly came to his heart, and finally he followed quickly, and said without words: "Master Qianhu, why are you fighting on the river in that fire-holding meeting and platooning sect? " Qiu Changfeng frowned and thought: "Maybe they are full." Yao Sansi believed it was true, and thought hard for a long time. Seeing Qiu Changfeng's smile with emotion, he came to his senses, "It turns out that your lord is joking." But Qiu Changfeng thought in his heart, this Yao Sansi is too naive, and he is not suitable to be a Jinyiwei.The Huohui suddenly entered the river, aggressive, Qiao Sanqing went eastward, could it be to deal with the Huohui?What is the reason for this sect to suddenly engage in battle?Normally, as Jin Yiwei, he would have to investigate and investigate such a big incident in the Yangtze River, but at this moment his mission is to protect Yao Guangxiao, how can he leave it lightly?Glancing at Yao Guangxiao in front of him, Qiu Changfeng wanted to ask him his opinion on this matter, but finally suppressed the idea. "I wonder if Qiao Sanqing is dead?" Yao Sansi said to himself, but obviously didn't know the answer, so he just looked at Qiu Changfeng.After following Qiu Changfeng for many days, he can be said to admire this Lord Qianhu so much. Qiu Changfeng smiled, "People like you can't die, Qiao Sanqing is a master of rowing, how could he die?" Yao Sansi said: "The holding fire will lose a big ship, and what kind of golden armored gods and drums are used, isn't it meaningless?" Qiu Changfeng said after a while: "They prepared the Tibetan ground fire, of course they didn't want to burn us to death. Although the Tibetan ground fire is powerful, it will never burn Qiao Sanqing to death. The reason why the fire is held like this may be to destroy Qiao Sanqing's platoon !" Yao Sansi was very surprised, "The big row is only a few hundred logs, and the fire meeting is really full, and you feel sorry for the logs?" Qiu Changfeng just smiled, thinking in his heart, back then Qiao Sanqing's Nine Heavens Giant Row was infinitely useful, and Qiao Sanqing's Nine Heavens Giant Row was like a tiger with wings added, and the fire would destroy the giant row, probably to cut off Qiao Sanqing's sharp weapon first, and then deal with Qiao Sanqing .Although he thought so, he always felt that things were not that simple, but of course he didn't need to tell Yao Sansi about these things. Yao Sansi suddenly remembered something, temporarily forgot about the platoon, looked around, and asked, "What about Little Master Wuxing?" Guru, are you waiting for the little master of enlightenment?" Yao Guangxiao murmured: "If you die, why wait? As long as you don't die, you will go to Jinshan." When Yao Sansi heard this, his heart turned cold, and he couldn't speak anymore.He originally thought that the trip to Jinshan was unremarkable, but at this moment he felt that every step forward was a step towards the Hall of Yama. The three of them walked silently, the weeds gradually disappeared, and a village loomed not far ahead. Yao Sansi's stomach suddenly growled again. He was anxious to save his life and forgot to be hungry. Now he was tired and tired, his body was cold, and the hunger revived again. Looking at the master in front of him, Yao Sansi murmured in his heart, even if he met a robber, he would kill him or not bury him. This master not only didn't care about burying him, but he didn't care about killing him.He doesn't care about our life or death at all. If we work with this kind of person, we can only consider ourselves unlucky, let alone expect him to take care of our stomachs. Thinking of this, Yao Sansi looked towards Qiu Changfeng, and if he had hope, he said: "Master Qianhu, it's been a busy day, and the master is hungry." Qiu Changfeng looked at the front and said: "As far as I know, there is a Niujia Village not far ahead. After passing Niujia Village, Gaozi Town is a few dozen miles away, and Dantu is less than a hundred miles away. Jiang went to Jinshan." Yao Sansi felt nauseated when he heard the word crossing the river, and hurriedly said: "Why don't we go to Niujia Village and eat some food first? Look..." Somewhat pleasantly said: "There is cooking smoke over there." Seeing Qiu Changfeng's awe-inspiring expression suddenly, Yao Sansi was startled, and muttered: "My lord, don't be angry if you don't eat." Qiu Changfeng frowned and stopped in his tracks. At the same time, Yao Guangxiao also stopped. The two looked at the village in the distance, but they were silent.It's just that Qiu Changfeng's face began to turn pale again, but Yao Guangxiao's eyes were gray and cold. At this time, the mountain was setting early, but it was not night yet, and the cold wind was blowing in the haze, bringing a sense of coolness. Yao Sansi's drenched clothes were still wet, and now he wished he could light a fire to dry his clothes, eat delicious rice, and then sleep.Seeing the expressions of the two, Yao Sansi asked, "Qianhu, master, are you leaving?" Qiu Changfeng's face turned cold, and he frowned and said, "Your biggest problem is that you ask too much and think too little. There is a problem ahead, can't you see it?" Yao Sansi looked at the village in front of him with little smoke, and said slightly: "Is there something weird about that village?" Qiu Changfeng stared at the village in front of him and said, "Of course it's weird. It's dinner time. How can there be no one cooking in such a big village?" Yao Sansi was puzzled and said, "Why is there no one cooking, isn't there smoke from cooking?" Qiu Changfeng sighed and said: "You must be the young master who has never touched oil on his hands. The cooking smoke is white, and the smoke you see is black, obviously not cooking smoke." Yao Sansi scratched his head, never thought that ordinary smoke could be particular about it. Qiu Changfeng said again: "Nuannuan Yuanren Village, smoke in Yiyixu. Dogs barking in the deep alley, chickens crowing on top of mulberry trees. You must have heard this poem, right?" Yao Sansi said: "Of course, this poem vividly describes the fun of the farmhouse." Qiu Changfeng said: "Then you should know that in a normal village, dogs barking, cocks crowing, cooking smoke, and human noise are indispensable. But can you see the same now?" Yao Sansi looked at the dead silent village in the distance, felt a chill in his heart, his teeth were clenched and he said, "Is there...no one in this village...living?" Yao Sansi's deduction was never accurate, but this time he was right on point. There is really no living person in Niujia Village. The entire village is full of ruins and black smoke.The black smoke that Yao Sansi saw just now was the embers of the burning village. Yao Sansi finally understood the biggest difference between himself and Qiu Changfeng, he was always a foodie, while Qiu Changfeng was always ready to eat people.If someone wanted to plot against Qiu Changfeng, it would be more difficult than climbing to the sky, because this Qiu Changfeng seemed to keep his eyes open even when he was sleeping. The three of them walked on the empty dirt road, and they saw scorched black marks everywhere. Several dead dogs died on the street, and their bodies were scorched black. Qiu Changfeng looked solemn, walked to the door of a house, looked at the charred chaimen, and suddenly kicked it away. With a bang, the chaimen fell straight down. In the yard, there were several corpses lying messily, some old and some young, men and women, but all of them were charred and black with hands and feet curled up. Seeing the tragic situation in the courtyard, Yao Sansi was shocked in his heart, rushed aside suddenly, and vomited.He ran around all day, didn't eat any rice, and vomited for a long time. He was quite uncomfortable, but he didn't vomit anything. Looking up, Qiu Changfeng and Yao Guangxiao had entered the yard early.At this time, the sky was getting dark and the sky was getting dark. Yao Sansi could only feel the air-conditioning whistling. There were countless lonely ghosts wandering in the dark night. They yelled and rushed into the yard. In the courtyard, Yao Guangxiao slowly sat on the steps, as if sitting in Qingshou Temple. He didn't seem to have seen the corpses in the courtyard. Yao Sansi looked at Yao Guangxiao, and felt that Yao Guangxiao really didn't have to be afraid. Yao Guangxiao was really suitable for the corpses in the yard, because Yao Guangxiao looked like a ghost. Finally, he looked away and landed on Qiu Changfeng, who was a bit cold but still somewhat popular.Qiu Changfeng was squatting down, looking at a charred corpse. Yao Sansi really didn't know what was so good about this charred corpse, and the husband started a big fire.At a time like this, what could be more reassuring than firelight? The flames flickered, diluting the ferocity of the night. Yao Sansi finally plucked up the courage to go to Qiu Changfeng, Nuonuo said: "Lord Qianhu, they were all burned to death, what are you looking at?" After all, he followed Qiu Changfeng for a while and learned something. Seeing the corpse's flesh was charred and black, hands and feet curled up, it was obviously a sign of being burned to death. Qiu Changfeng shook his head and said: "People who are burned alive will definitely run and pant, so there will be soot in the mouth, but I have seen the mouths of several people, and there is no sign of this..." Yao San thought for a moment, and immediately asked: "After they were killed, they were burned to wipe out their traces?" Qiu Changfeng nodded, approvingly said: "You guessed right this time. Besides, no one survived the fire in the village. How could this be possible. Obviously, they were killed." As a guard in Jinyi, even though he was on his way and happened to be murdered, he couldn't help but want to find out who the murderer was, so he checked the wounds on the corpse, hoping to find clues. But to his astonishment, if the body was not burned to death, of course there should be other fatal reasons, but he searched for a long time, but found nothing. Although he is not an author, but he has learned Qian Kun, and his experience in autopsy is richer than that of an author with many years of experience. Otherwise, how could he correct the mistakes of Zhen Zuo in the first place?But with his experience, he still couldn't see the cause of death of the corpse. In Qiu Changfeng's eyes, there was an extremely unusual problem with this ordinary corpse. While pondering, his eyes were fixed, and he reached out and grabbed the right hand of the corpse through the skirt of his clothes. When he looked up, he saw that the fingernails on the five fingers of the corpse's right hand were quite green, which did not fade off even after being burned. Qiu Changfeng's heart was shocked, and he secretly called out: "Is it Burning Heart? The one who can hold fire?" He is well-informed and knows that holding fire will take fire as his belief, and he is good at using fire. He has a very powerful method of arson called burning heart.As soon as the burning heart technique is performed, the powder can immediately penetrate the opponent's mouth and nose, directly pressing on the heart.It can cause convulsions of hands and feet, dark skin, and looks like burnt to death.However, the nails of those killed will be a little green. He then looked at the other corpses, and found that without exception, they all had green nails. He confirmed his judgment, but his doubts grew stronger. He knew that the Paijiao was presided over by the Sipai Method, but the Fire Holding Club was controlled by the Three Monarchs of Heaven, Earth, and Man.The Burning Heart Technique was originally used only by the masters of the Fire Holding Society, but the masters of the Fire Holding Society suddenly appeared in this inconspicuous Niujia Village, killing people and setting fire, why did they come here? He knew that the perpetrator deliberately set the fire, but it was to create the illusion that people were burned to death, and to cover up the real cause of death of the deceased. Turning his gaze, he landed on the stove in the hall, only seeing ashes and ashes. Qiu Changfeng walked over and stretched out his hand to test it, but found that there was no heat. He thought in his heart, although the family pot was cleaned, but the rice was not planted, it showed the family The fire has not been lit for dinner, so the murderer should have done it before dinner.At that time, Qiao Sanqing was also on the river, and the Huohuihui and Paijiao suddenly went to war on the river. Could it be that the masters of the Huobaohui stayed here in order to snipe Qiao Sanqing, and killed the villagers in order to prevent leaking his whereabouts? His reasoning was so detailed that it made sense, but he still felt that some key issues had not been resolved, and he couldn't help but fell into deep thought. Seeing Qiu Changfeng go to the stove, Yao Sansi felt very hopeful, but seeing Qiu Changfeng standing still again, he couldn't help being disappointed.Knowing that asking for others is better than asking for oneself, he was about to take a step, and suddenly his whole body became hairy, only to see a haggard face almost stuck in front of him! Yao Sansi felt cold all over, yelled, and almost retreated to the fire. After seeing clearly that the person in front of him was Yao Guangxiao, Yao Sansi wiped off his cold sweat and said, "Master, are you also interested in corpses?" Yao Guangxiao didn't speak, just lit the fire with the thatch in his hand, then entered the hall, passed the thatch into the hearth, raised the fire, put a big pot on it, and covered it. Then Yao Guangxiao sat on the ground, just staring blankly at the stove. The courtyard is full of corpses, it is inevitable that there is a ghostly atmosphere, Yao Guangxiao's every move is even more weird and unpredictable in Yao Sansi's view. After waiting for a long time, steam was rising from the cauldron, but Yao Guangxiao was still sitting there, motionless. Yao Sansi finally couldn't hold back anymore, and asked Qiu Changfeng: "Master Qianhu, is Master...is he casting spells? Our journey is not going well recently, Master must be trying to exorcise evil spirits?" Qiu Changfeng gave Yao Sansi a blank look, "Master is steaming rice." While speaking, he strode to the pot and lifted the lid. There is the fragrance of rice, which brings a sense of warmth in the dark night. Qiu Changfeng washed the bowls and chopsticks, filled a bowl of rice for his master, and unexpectedly filled another bowl for Yao Sansi, and greeted him, "It's time to eat." Yao Sansi couldn't believe his eyes and ears for a moment. He never associated Yao Guangxiao with cooking. In his mind, Yao Guangxiao has almost nothing to do with the word "rice".He also never thought that Qiu Changfeng would serve him a bowl of rice. Picking up the rice bowl, I could only feel a heat coming from my hands to my heart, but looking at the corpses in the courtyard, how could Yao Sansi eat? Yao Guangxiao swallowed the rice slowly, without saying a word.Qiu Changfeng picked up a bowl of rice with just a few chopsticks and wanted to serve it again.No matter when you are full, you will have the energy to do things.The trip to Jinshan now seemed very strange, and he had to work hard. When Qiu Changfeng was about to serve another meal, his face suddenly changed slightly, as if he was listening to something. Yao Sansi was just about to pick up the rice, when he looked up and saw Qiu Changfeng like this, he exclaimed: "What's wrong, there's something wrong with the meal?" As soon as he finished speaking, he heard thunder suddenly in the distance.The stars and the moon are dim, but after all, there are no dark clouds to cover them. How can there be rain at this time? In an instant, Yao Sansi realized that it was not thunder but the sound of horseshoes. Such a late night, such a deserted village, how could someone suddenly pass by on horseback? Yao Sansi thought of this, his hands trembled slightly.At the same time, the sound of horseshoes suddenly stopped in front of the courtyard, and there was no sound.The sound of the horse's hooves changed from movement to silence, and in the dark night, there was an indescribably thrilling meaning. Immediately afterwards, there was a crowd of people, and dozens of people rushed into the courtyard. The leader of the crowd was as handsome as iron. When he saw the three people in the hall, he hurried over to pay homage, and said loudly: "So the master is here. Qianhu Wei Tieyi sees you." The person who came was Wei Tieyi from the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion.He deliberately raised his voice, not because Yao Guangxiao seemed to be deaf, but because he was talking to people outside the hospital. Someone outside the courtyard screamed: "Why, the master is here? Isn't he the murderer?" When Qiu Changfeng heard this, he couldn't help frowning.As soon as the flames shone, Yunmeng, dressed as red as fire, walked in. Seeing Yao Guangxiao, Yunmeng was both surprised and happy and said, "Master, it's really a coincidence to see you here. We are going to go around Jinshan, will Master also go?" Qiu Changfeng sighed in his heart, thinking that Yunmeng came here for a purpose, and it was no coincidence.As he thought about it, his eyes fell on the person next to the princess. The man in green clothes and black hair, with a thin waist and simple clothes, stood not far from the princess, like a rain lotus standing quietly in a lake, looking very weak, it was Ye Yuhe. She was still calm, and seeing Qiu Changfeng looking over, the clear autumn waves passed by Qiu Changfeng without stopping. Yao Guangxiao listened to the princess's question and didn't answer, just nodded slowly and continued to eat the rice. Seeing Princess Yunmeng, she frowned slightly.She did act according to Yang Shiqi's plan as Qiu Changfeng thought. Although Yang Shiqi was reprimanded by Zhu Di, he remained loyal to the prince. He felt that the power of the prince was becoming more and more elusive. If he didn't help the prince to recover from the decline, he might be deposed sooner or later. Now that Zhu Yunqi suddenly made a comeback, it was extremely strange. If this rebellion could be quelled, it would obviously greatly increase the crown prince's weight in the Holy Majesty's mind. Helplessly, the emperor was dissatisfied with the prince and the king of Han, so he sent Zhao Wang and Ji Gang to Dinghai to calm the chaos. Those who value the reappearance of "Song of the Sun and Moon" will probably go to Jinshan to solve the mystery. When the Golden Dragon Jue was first mentioned, King Ning's face changed drastically. He was assassinated later, although he was not injured, but he was bedridden after being frightened. No matter how Yunmeng asked, King Ning didn't mention the Jinlong Jue. , can only give up the idea of ​​knowing the secret from King Ning. Knowing that Yao Guangxiao was going to Jinshan by water, Princess Yunmeng, Wei Tieyi and Ye Yuhe immediately headed for Jinshan, but unexpectedly ran into Yao Guangxiao on the way. Wei Tieyi knew that this village was a dead village. Seeing the corpse in the yard, he couldn't help being shocked, and asked Qiu Changfeng in a low voice: "Brother Qiu, what's going on here?" Qiu Changfeng saw Yao Guangxiao remained silent and looked indifferent to everything that happened, his heart moved slightly, he shook his head and said, "My master and I have only been here for a while, so we don't understand what's going on." Princess Yunmeng said impatiently: "It doesn't matter what they do, these matters will naturally be handled by the Zhenjiang Mansion. Qiu...Qianhu, have you rested?" There was a sudden gentleness in her voice, which is rare Things. However, Qiu Changfeng knew that Yunmeng was a night owl who came into the house and would come for nothing, so he muttered: "Princess Duolao, don't worry, it's okay to be humble." Princess Yunmeng took a peek at Yao Guangxiao and said, "If you rest well, will you escort your master to Jinshan overnight?" Qiu Changfeng immediately understood Yunmeng's intentions, and said hesitantly: "Master is tired and has a surprise encounter. For the sake of the master's body, I am afraid that I will have to rest for a night before leaving. If the princess is in a hurry, you might as well go on the road first. The humble escort comes Teacher is fine." Princess Yunmeng murmured in her heart, Yao Guangxiao is not going to Jinshan, what am I going to do?Turning her eyes, she said with a smile: "If this princess didn't know that the master is here, of course she would go to Jinshan immediately. But now that she knows that the master is here, of course she will escort the master to Jinshan." Feeling that Qiu Changfeng would probably obstruct it, Princess Yunmeng looked at Yao Guangxiao coquettishly and said, "Master, I know, you will definitely not object, will you?" Yao Guangxiao finally finished his meal, put the bowl away, and only said a few words, "Let's go tomorrow morning." After he finished speaking, he got up and spread some straw on the ground, sat cross-legged on the straw, and closed his eyes. Princess Yunmeng thought that Yao Guangxiao agreed, she was a little bit happy, she shouted and shouted immediately, and asked Wei Tieyi to order the guards to rest in shifts to protect the peace of the master. The evening wind is bleak, and the night is like a dream. On the way Princess Yunmeng gave her orders, she couldn't help but cast a sideways glance at Qiu Changfeng with a smug expression. Qiu Changfeng was surprised to see that Yao Guangxiao did not reject Yunmeng's request, but he had no way to object.After pondering for a while, he saw Ye Yuhe standing under the sycamore tree in the courtyard with a cold expression.Seeing that no one was paying attention, Qiu Changfeng finally walked slowly in front of Ye Yuhe, seeing Ye Yuhe turning a blind eye to him, Qiu Changfeng pondered for a long time before saying: "Ye Butou, many things actually have nothing to do with you, you really don't have to. Get involved." Ye Yuhe didn't turn her head, and replied coldly: "I actually have nothing to do with Lord Qianhu, why should Lord Qianhu bother with my affairs?" Qiu Changfeng was not repulsed by Ye Yuhe's indifference, he only said after a moment of silence: "Then how can you quit?" Ye Yuhe turned her head slowly, with a hint of sarcasm in her beautiful eyes, "If Master Qianhu doesn't go to Jinshan, then I can withdraw from this trip." Qiu Changfeng was slightly stunned, and shook his head after a while and said, "I...I can't." Ye Yuhe said coldly: "Since the adults of Qianhu can't control themselves, why do they want to control others? Are you afraid that I will steal your credit and ruin your plan to suppress the prince, so you don't want me to follow?" Qiu Changfeng frowned for a long time, finally sighed lightly, and walked away slowly, but his expression was somewhat dazed. Yao Sansi came up to meet him secretly, and said quietly: "Miss Qianhu was rejected?" Qiu Changfeng said in astonishment, "What nonsense are you talking about?" Yao Sansi snickered and said, "I've been with my lord for a long time, and I know some ways to observe people. My lord went to Ye Butou secretly, obviously there are things that can't be said to outsiders. Of course, there will be no official business between you. The ancients said, a gentle lady is a gentleman, when the adults were in Nanjing, they seemed to be interested in Ye Butou, could it be that he expressed his love to Ye Butou this time?" Seeing Qiu Changfeng's awe-inspiring look, Yao Sansi was even more sure Deduced, smiled and said: "It can be seen that the adult is frowning, the blind man knows that the adult was rejected by Ye Butou." Qiu Changfeng nodded and said, "You're not blind." He thought to himself, what the blind man thinks is still a bit off the mark, and your guess is completely off the mark. Yao Sansi couldn't hear what Qiu Changfeng said at all, and said triumphantly: "Of course I am not, not only am I not blind, but I can also see that Ye Butou was secretly watching you when Lord Qianhu turned to leave. Women are like this, the more they care about you, the more indifferent they will be towards you, so I think Mrs. Qianhu is very funny." Qiu Changfeng suppressed the thought of turning back, and said with admiration: "Then according to what you said, if a woman draws her sword and points at you, she must love you to the bone?" Yao Sansi nodded again and again: "Yes." Then he said with some regret: "In fact, Master Qianhu is not bad, but he just doesn't understand women, and he doesn't understand poetry, otherwise, with your status, if you read a few lines If poetry is for women..." Qiu Changfeng interrupted: "Who says I don't understand? Back then on the Qinhuai River, I touched Yunqin'er's heart with a sentimental poem..." Princess Yunmeng listened to it from a distance, and secretly sneered, but knew that it was not the time to fall out with Qiu Changfeng, so she didn't expose Qiu Changfeng's bullshit. Yao Sansi said with respect and admiration: "I don't know what kind of poems have such power?" Qiu Changfeng chanted slowly: "You have to listen to this poem well. I've been relying on this poem for my whole life—the willow silk makes softness, and the smoke weaves into sorrow. The begonias are not raining, and the pear blossoms are snowing first. Half of the spring break." When he was reciting poems, Ye Yuhe didn't bother to leave, but after hearing a few sentences, he stopped abruptly, although he didn't look at Qiu Changfeng, but his eyes were full of surprise. Yao Sansi couldn't help but said: "Master Qianhu, this seems to be Wing Chun's lyrics, and it's getting thicker now." Qiu Changfeng didn't look at Ye Yuhe, but said: "You are wrong. Poems and songs are just the voice of the heart. It doesn't matter whether it is spring or autumn. The key is whether you have spring or autumn in your heart." Yao Sansi seemed to understand, but finally asked: "Is there anything else to say?" Ye Yuhe's eyes were suddenly filled with astonishment, only to hear Qiu Changfeng read again, "Nowadays it is difficult to recall the past, returning to the Qin Tower in dreams. Lovesickness is only on the branches of cloves and the tips of cardamom." Spring is gone early, but lovesickness is always there, lilac flowers wither, cardamom withers, but if there is lovesickness, why do flowers fade and bloom? After Qiu Changfeng finished reading the words, he looked at the sky, and there were shooting stars falling down, like the starry eyes like a dream.He stared blankly, as if he was in a daze, and didn't notice that Ye Yuhe suddenly turned his head, and was looking at him in amazement, the palm he held was jade-like pale... Princess Yunmeng couldn't help laughing, thinking to herself, this autumn wind is suddenly sour, it's autumn, and she's still thinking about spring, showing off elegance, but not understanding the meaning of the words, what a joke. She didn't know Qiu Changfeng's state of mind at the moment, and she couldn't understand the deep meaning of Qiu Changfeng's words at the moment, but she was surprisingly not mocking.Although she is a bit unruly and headstrong, she has a good heart at last. She only thought that she changed her temper and had a little patience.
