Yi Fei waited for quite a while before hearing Qiu Jiang say calmly: "Who knows."
"Then I'm not leaving!" Yi Fei said, took a step back, slammed the door shut, turned around and sat down on the couch, and shook the rest of the wine, "It's such a good wine, it can't be wasted. "
Once the door is closed, the wind and rain are cut off, and those ominous things seem to be blocked out of the door. All that was left for Xiaolou was the unusual silence.
Qiu Jiang stretched out her hand to brush away her messy hair, revealing a pair of dark eyes. Yi Fei felt like a passer-by who strayed into the dense forest by mistake at night, and was stared at by night owls on the treetops.
He had to take a big sip of wine to resist this disturbing stare, and then said: "Your injury needs to be rested, it takes so much effort, but it will damage your lifespan."
"There's always something to do."
"Can't wait for the first half of the year?"
"I've wasted five years. Five years ago, the dust should have settled."
"I don't understand." Yi Fei put down the jug and looked straight at Qiu Jiang, "I really don't understand. You are a bird that has escaped from the cage, why do you want to go back to the cage? We all want to smash it It wants you to be free."
"Because..." Qiu Jiang turned his gaze to the gate, "There's no escape."
The door closed by Yi Fei creaked and opened again, and the wind and rain rushed in, throwing a wet figure on the ground. The man stood at the door, his cloak from head to toe, looking very bloated.
The next moment, the cloak opened a thread, and a person came out from inside, glaring at Yi Fei provocatively.
Yi Fei saw that it was red jade! As soon as Hongyu came out, the cloak immediately lost weight.
Hongyu squatted down to wipe off the water droplets on the boots for this person, then stood on tiptoe to untie the strap of the cloak, and pulled it neatly, and the cloak was immediately folded and hung on her arm snugly.
It was only then that Yi Fei saw the appearance of the person who came. It was a young man in his twenties, wearing white clothes and a pair of green gloves. His skin was extremely white and he looked thin.
Where did this onion come from?
The more Yi Fei thought about it, the more he felt that the metaphor of onion was wonderful. This person is tall, thin, white and tender, and with those green gloves, doesn't he look like an onion? While thinking about it, he laughed softly: "Yo, in such a hurricane day, there will still be guests."
"I'm not a guest." The man smiled, his eyes were soft, and he was naturally kind.
"Are you the master?"
"My lord Zhu Xiaozhao, I have met His Highness the Third Highness."
Yi Fei was startled, he was really the master!
Hongyu grinned at him and said, "Didn't expect that? If you don't go to heaven, there is no way to hell, so you have to live here!"
Yi Fei sighed: "You tipped the news?"
"Wrong!" Hongyu's eyes sparkled, full of malice, "I'm not so capable. It's a letter from your good friend Qiu Jiang."
Yi Fei looked at Qiu Jiang and sighed: "I've been watching you these days, how did you do it?"
Qiu Jiang said: "You shouldn't ask Jiang Wanyi to see a doctor for me."
"What does it have to do with him?"
"A doctor, a famous doctor, there will always be many people paying attention to his whereabouts."
Hongyu giggled: "After all, he is the Yuguan that many people miss."
Yi Fei also laughed, and simply went back to the couch and sat down, continued to drink and said: "It makes sense, if it makes sense, let's have a drink."
Seeing that he was still so calm at this time, Hongyu felt very dissatisfied. She likes to see people suffer. If the other person is not in pain, she is in pain. Therefore, she turned her head to look at Zhu Xiaozhao and said, "You still don't do anything?"
Zhu Xiaozhao said with a smile, "No rush."
"Why don't you rush? Both of them are treacherous and cunning, and they will change if they are late!"
"Madam has three questions for me to ask the Seven Lords, and I will leave after asking."
Hongyu was very dissatisfied, but had no choice but to suppress her anger: "Then ask!"
Zhu Xiaozhao walked up to Qiu Jiang, but he stretched out an index finger with his left hand and made a salute with three fingers in his right hand.
Qiu Jiang's pupils began to shrink: "You, the new Si'er?"
"yes."
"Dong'er and the others were you killed?"
"Donger?"
"The three maidservants of Xue Caifu."
Zhu Xiaozhao showed a look of surprise, and said with a smile: "Yes."
"Why?"
"Madam heard that the Seven Lords were not dead and appeared in the Baize Mansion in Bi Country, so she sent me to look for them. But when I arrived, I couldn't find you. I left a token, hoping that you will come to me and return to Ruyi Gate as soon as possible. "
From this point of view, the wind chime was indeed deliberately left in Xiangxiang's hands by this person. She was looking for him, and he was looking for her. It's just that she lost her memory at the time and didn't understand his intentions. But by accident, in order to avenge Dong'er and the others and find memories, she still embarked on the way back.
After being silent for a while, Qiu Jiang said lightly, "You can start asking those three questions."
"First, Mr. Pin betrayed. Did you know?"
Qiu Jiang's eyelashes trembled slightly.
Mrs. Ruyi became obsessed with martial arts and had to go into seclusion. Mr. Pin and Ruyi Qibao are in charge of matters in the door for the time being. Five years ago, in the center of Cao Mu, she set up a trap to kill the Three Treasures, and even lost her memory. As a result, Ruyimen lost four responsible people all of a sudden.
It's a big deal. Mrs. Ruyi was supposed to come out to preside over the overall situation and reorganize the plan, but she didn't. She kept a strange silence, allowing the two plans to move forward.
Among the two Chunchun plans, one is for Yishu and Luo Zi to join forces to poison the bow and control the court of Cheng Guo, and in the name of King Cheng's birthday, invite He Yi, Lord of Yi State, Zhang Hua, Lord of Yan State, and Marquis Dongbi of Bi State, to come to Cheng. Banquet, took the opportunity to launch a mutiny, and pushed Yishu to the top.
Qiu Jiang knew this plan from the very beginning. Although there were many twists and turns in the middle, it finally succeeded at the end of June.
Another plan for playing the spring is to use Xie Changyan to lure Zhanghua to the sea, assassinate him, and then help Zhanghua's twin brother Xie Zhiwei to take the position, and replace Zhanghua without anyone noticing.
Mrs. Ruyi didn't tell her about this plan, she vaguely guessed it, but because of amnesia, she was forcibly separated from it.
When Yujing's Zouchun plan was in full swing, in July, Ruyimen's base camp was destroyed; in August, Bai Zehou Jiying died in an accident, and then, the Zouchun plan failed.
It can be said that Ruyimen has suffered a crushing defeat so far.
Qiu Jiang clenched her palms tightly, and at this moment, all the things she couldn't figure out in the past had been answered——
Why was there no one to pick her up on New Year's Eve at Caomuju?
Because, it was Mr. Pin who originally agreed that the praying mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole would be the one who would bring her head back to the Kingdom of Cheng.
Why did Mrs. Ruyi not look for her after she was sent to Yunmeng Mountain for so many years?
Because Mrs. Ruyi was in retreat, Mr. Pin controlled everything and did not let the wind leak to Mrs. Ruyi's ears.
Why did Cheng Guo's plan to play spring succeed?
Because this is the headquarters of Ruyimen, in order to numb Mrs. Ruyi and relax after the carnival, Mr. Pin still let Yishu take the position according to the plan. But Yishu is no longer the Yishu that Madam had her eyes on back then. After this beautiful snake transformed into a dragon, the first thing she did was to turn her head and bite fiercely at the Ruyi Gate.
As a result, the katydid mountain fell and the base camp was destroyed.
But the reason why Mrs. Ruyi is Mrs. Ruyi is that she still escaped.
She found Mr. Pin's betrayal, escaped, and then hibernated, waiting for the opportunity.
She allowed Yan Guo's plan to play the spring to fail, and let all her hard work go to waste little by little. Finally, the news of Qiu Jiang's reappearance came.
"I don't understand..." Qiu Jiang's voice became hoarse, "Mr. Pin, why did you betray?"
"People's desires are endless, so the reasons for betrayal are naturally various." Zhu Xiaozhao didn't take it seriously, "So, the Seven Lords don't know?"
"I don't know. Hongyu has been following me, which can prove that I am also a victim."
Hongyu immediately poohed: "Who knows if you are acting as agreed with Pin Congmu?"
Zhu Xiaozhao smiled and said, "Are you referring to the incident where Deng Xiong blew up the boat and tried to burn you to death?"
"You knew already?"
"My people stopped him on the shore and confirmed from a girl named Zifu that you are on his boat."
Hongyu still muttered dissatisfiedly: "Maybe everyone in that boat is in collusion with her."
Zhu Xiaozhao ignored her and continued to ask: "The second question, why did the Seven Lords save the Third Highness?"
Yi Fei, who was drinking at the side, thought to himself, but he finally asked this question. He couldn't help but hold his breath and looked at Qiu Jiang.
Qiu Jiang replied quickly: "As you said, Mr. Pin has betrayed, and Yishu is not available. Ruyimen needs to find a new host to restore its vitality."
Hongyu immediately looked at Yifei and said, "I told you earlier, she just wants to use you!"
Yi Fei smiled brightly: "As long as it allows me to be the emperor, use it as you like."
Hongyu was too angry to speak.
Zhu Xiaozhao still had a kind smile on his face, such a gentle and friendly appearance, it was difficult to associate with the person who tortured and killed Dong'er. "Then the third question, how does the Seven Masters prove that they are still loyal to Ruyimen?"
Qiu Jiang was silent for a long time this time, before he opened his mouth and said, "How do you prove that I am not loyal?"
Many, many years ago, a person once said to her: "What is fine work? It means that everything you do can be both black and white. If you want to be black, you can be black, and if you want to be white, you can be white."
She's done a good job at this point so far.
Everything she did can be explained: after all, Feng Letian was really beheaded by her; and she really wanted to go back to Ruyimen with all her heart; and Mr. Pin was indeed chasing her.
Mr. Pin and Yishu are in the same group, so she brought Yifei back to get everything back.
Yi Fei seemed to be sipping the wine in his glass leisurely, but his heart was heavy, weighing heavily on him. Although both Zhu Long and Jiang Wanyi may have fallen into Mrs. Ruyi's hands, we learned from this conversation that Ruyimen is now in conflict, and Mrs. Ruyi needs to use herself to deal with Yishu if she wants to get back the scepter from Pin Congmu. . Therefore, as such an important pawn, at least he is safe.
From the fact that Zhu Xiaozhao came in this time, he was not in a hurry to arrest him, but instead invited him to drink.
But why did Qiu Jiang choose Mrs. Ruyi between Pin Congmu and Mrs. Ruyi? Wouldn't it be good to get rid of Mrs. Ruyi in one go with a borrowed item? Then, wouldn't it be better to deal with Pin Congmu after defeating Yishu? Why do you have to go back to Mrs. Ruyi persistently?
After losing her base camp and having to go into hiding, what else is there for Mrs. Ruyi that is worth plotting for her?
What the **** are you thinking?
Is your heart really never open to anyone?
Whether it's Feng Xiaoya or me, such a life-and-death friend, you can't really trust me?
Just because you carried me to the fishing village with bleeding ears that day, I can cooperate with any of your plans. Why do you still keep it from me?
The wine in his mouth became sour and bitter for some reason, making it hard to swallow, Yifei finally put down the glass.
But at this time, Qiu Jiang's eyes turned to his face: "Besides, I brought back both His Highness and Hongyu, which is enough to express my sincerity."
Hongyu said angrily: "I belong to Madam, but you arrested me and locked me in the woodshed..."
Qiu Jiang interrupted her: "First, I didn't know that you belonged to my wife. What if you act carefully? Second, I just locked you up. I didn't beat you, didn't scold you, and even made Jiang Wan Yi went to treat you because he was merciful for the sake of his fellow disciples; thirdly, if I hadn't spread the news through Jiang Wanyi's whereabouts, the fourth brother would have come back early and released you as soon as possible?"
Hongyu was left speechless by the question, so she could only curl her lips in resentment and said, "Your voice, fourth brother, is quite smooth."
"It's easy to say. If you are also Qibao, I can also call you sister."
Hongyu's eyes almost burst into flames: "You clearly know why I can't be Qibao!"
"Oh yes. I remember someone told me that she would get back the name 'Agate' one day. It's a pity that if I don't die, you won't be able to take over." Qiu Jiang laughed, with such a dull face Once the face has an expression, it looks very charming, "Even if I have been missing for five years and my body is not found for a day, the Onyx can't be replaced for a day."
Hongyu bit her lip, for some reason, the anger on her face faded, and turned into another kind of deeper resentment: "I went to Yan to look for you."
Qiu Jiang raised his eyebrows.
"Pin Congmu said that your plan in Yan State failed. You, Er'er, Wu'er, and Liu'er are all dead. I don't believe it. I went to Yujing to dig up Wu'er's body and found that he was killed by someone. He smashed the sky spirit cover with one palm and died. But before he died, he was poisoned by your drug, his limbs were stiff, and his leg bones were broken. Moreover, I only found the bodies of the three of them, without you and Dao Dao. I was in Dao Dao was found in the cell, and I learned from him what happened on New Year’s Eve. Therefore, I insist that you are not dead, but just hid.”
Qiu Jiang smiled, noncommittal.
Zhu Xiaozhao suddenly added from the side: "Hongyu came back to report to Madam, and Madam began to suspect Mr. Pin, but she was obsessed with practicing kung fu at that time, and she couldn't take care of herself, so she could only tell Hongyu and me not to startle the snake, but to spy on Mr. Pin secretly."
Hongyu snorted coldly: "Pin Congmu is very cunning, he didn't show any abnormalities, he continued to take care of the family affairs diligently, and carried out the Chunchun plan step by step. Neither Yishu nor Xie Fanyi seemed to have any problems .I can't find evidence, and I can't find you."
"Afterwards, Yishu succeeded in proclaiming himself emperor, and his wife recovered almost. When he was about to leave the customs, Mr. Pin brought a kind of gunpowder from Yan Kingdom to blow up the Katydid Mountain."
Hongyu said dissatisfied: "Why do you still call him Mr. that guy? He is Mr. Shit!"
"He didn't teach me anything! He only favors Qi'er!" Hongyu gave Qiu Jiang a jealous look at first, but then became happy again, gloating, "Unfortunately, it's all fake. Isn't he going to kill you now? "
Qiu Jiang smiled noncommittally again.
Zhu Xiaozhao continued: "I have been monitoring Pin Xian... well, Pin Cong Mu, waiting for him to do something, so that night, I found out that something was wrong in advance, rushed into my wife's retreat, and told her Pin Cong Mu betrayed, but It's too late."
Hongyu was recalled, and she also had lingering fear on her face: "Si'er and I escaped from the secret passage with my wife, but because of the use of internal strength, my wife went mad again, almost paralyzed, so I could only hide. We hid in the temple , making a living by stealing. One day when I went to the town to steal rice, I heard everyone saying that Bai Zehou Ji Ying had died. I went back and told my wife about it, and she coughed up blood that night and almost died of illness."
Qiu Jiang's expression didn't change, but Yi Fei felt keenly that her breath had changed.
what happened? Why did she pay so much attention to Ji Ying? Madam Ruyi too? Why did I hear that Ji Ying would vomit blood even after death?
"Madam burned for three days and three nights, and when she woke up, she told Hongyu that whoever can kill Pin Congmu will leave the Ruyi Gate to him."
Qiu Jiang snorted, and looked at Hongyu with a half-smile: "So you two are competitors now?"
Hongyu said coldly: "You don't need to provoke my relationship with Si'er. We have agreed, we each rely on our own abilities, and we are willing to bet and admit defeat."
"Then it looks like neither of you has won so far."
Zhu Xiaozhao sighed and said: "Although Pin Congmu doesn't know martial arts, but he is very wise and close to monsters. I don't have much confidence in dealing with him. So, this year I just pretended to go to Yiguo, avoiding my eyes and ears, but actually hibernating and observing. "
Yi Fei thought that this person hadn't left, no wonder he showed up in this hurricane weather and caught them by surprise.
"You are all afraid of him, but I am not afraid!" Hongyu said with a straight face, "I think he must have gone to Yan State to carry out the Yan State's Chunchun plan. Unfortunately, when I arrived, that plan failed .Yan Wang is not dead, the person who died was his younger brother. Pin Congmu has disappeared since then and has never appeared again."
Yi Fei and Qiu Jiang glanced at each other subconsciously, seeing surprise on each other's faces.
Pin Congmu is also missing? That is to say, Mrs. Ruyi and Pin Congmu have turned light into darkness and are hiding in the dark?
"Madam heard that Pin Congmu had disappeared, so she asked Hongyu to contact the old department to see who else could be transferred. At this time, we met Xie Fanyi and learned from her that you are indeed not dead. Feng Xiaoya didn't kill you, but Lock you up on Yunmeng Mountain, but when I arrived at Yunmeng Mountain, you had escaped."
Hongyu said angrily: "Madam heard that you didn't die, and you recovered from your illness, and told us that we must find you. We found out that you were hiding in the Baize Mansion after we found Bi Country all the way. I insist that your fake death back then was Colluded with Pin Congmu, and wanted to take the opportunity to escape Ruyi Gate. But Madam said, you won’t.”
Qiu Jiang's eyes flickered, he didn't know what he was thinking.
"I don't trust you, but Madam believes in you. I can't say no to Madam, so I decided to monitor you to see what's going on."
"So you appeared at San'er and said that you wanted to kill me to avenge Wu'er, so as to test my relationship with Yi Fei? Did you know that he wasn't San'er then?"
Hongyu sneered: "Ding Sansan is a pervert, he didn't touch me every time he saw me. Yifei didn't even dare to look at me."
Yi Fei touched his nose and couldn't help smiling bitterly.
"I followed you all the way from afar, and saw that you boarded Yun Xingxing's boat. I knew she was going to attend the Happy Banquet, so I went to the Jiuxian to wait for you."
"Hu Jiuxian has Ruyimen disciples around him. From him, you know that Yun Xingshan is on the invitation list, and through his arrangement, he became one of the three items won by the trick."
"right."
"who is he?"
Hongyu smiled and said, "Then I can't tell you."
Qiu Jiang couldn't help thinking: There are indeed two nails beside Hu Jiuxian, one is Hu Zhiren, and the other is still hidden in the dark. Could it be Ai Xiaoxiao?
"I was caught by you, and I heard the confrontation between you and Feng Xiaoya with my own ears, so I am sure that you really have amnesia." Hongyu continued. That day, she was called Xiao Yu'er, and Qiu Jiang threw her into the dark room. She seemed to be unconscious, but she was actually awake. When she heard their conversation, she was not happy at all. Instead, she was very angry. .
When Qiu Jiang heard this, she smiled at Zhu Xiaozhao and said, "Now, I have asked all the questions I should ask, and I have answered all the questions I should have answered. Can you take me to see your wife?"
"No hurry." Zhu Xiaozhao said with a smile, "Madam still has something to ask His Highness the Third Highness."
Qiu Jiang frowned slightly.
Zhu Xiaozhao walked up to Yi Fei, poured the wine for him again like a hospitable host entertaining guests, and said, "Madam said, does Your Highness want to see her?"
"Think about it day and night, haunt your dreams!"
Zhu Xiaozhao smiled slightly: "Then, use the light knife on your waist to slash Qizhu's face five times."
As soon as this statement came out, all three of them were shocked.
Hongyu's eyes widened all of a sudden, she was overjoyed and said, "Madam really said that?!"
"The madam said that the seven masters lost their memory and delayed the past five years. Although it was the fault of the quality and purpose, it was also caused by the incompetence of the seven masters. Therefore, if you want to return to the wishful door, you must first lead the wrong one. One sword a year, leave a mark face, to show vigilance."
Zhu Xiaozhao's smile was still so kind, and his voice was still so soft, but in Yifei's ears, every word pierced his heart. He couldn't help but look at Qiu Jiang, who lowered her eyes, and her long eyelashes cast a shadow on her face.
Hongyu clapped her palms and said, "As expected of Madam! You can test people's hearts better than me. Come on, Third Highness, do you want the support of Ruyimen, do you want to see Madam? Then do it quickly."
Yifei actually knew the intention of Mrs. Ruyi's move. He walked with Qiu Jiang all the way, helped each other through wind and rain, shared life and death, and unwittingly established a deep relationship. It would be a good thing for Mrs. Ruyi if Qiu Jiang was still Qi'er from before. But because of the disappearance and amnesia during the Qiujiang period, and the betrayal of Mrs. Ruyi, she became more and more suspicious. Both want her to come back, and worry about her coming back. So, if Qiu Jiang returned in a false sense, then, let him ruin her face. This is undoubtedly the most terrifying thing in the world for women. Even if they are really affectionate, it will cause a gap.
Yifei thought through all this in an instant, shook his head and said, "Isn't that good? Although she is average-looking and not a beauty, she has cheated many infatuated men with her face in the past and completed many tasks. If I ruin her appearance at this moment, how can she perform secret missions in the future?"
Zhu Xiaozhao said: "Third Highness, don't worry about this. Seventh Lord, don't complain too. Madam said that as long as you pass the test, after she sees you, she will officially pass on the position of Mrs. Ruyi to you. From now on, you naturally don't have to perform any task."
"What? I don't agree!" Hongyu immediately objected, "Madam clearly said that whoever kills Pin Congmu will pass on the position to him!"
"That's because we all thought that the Seventh Lord was dead before. Now that the Seventh Lord has returned, that position is naturally still hers."
"Why? She has been happy and happy for five years, but we are desperately fighting. The katydids are falling. If it weren't for us, my wife would have died! In terms of merit, you and I are far better than her. Why pass it to her?! "
Zhu Xiaozhao sighed and said: "This is Madam's order. If you don't accept it, go and mention it to her."
Hongyu was angry and wronged at the same time, glaring at Qiu Jiang fiercely, and finally said bitterly: "I will go back and ask! But now, I want to see you disfigured!"
Qiu Jiang finally raised his head, but his plain face was calm, and he said to Yi Fei, "Let's do it."
Yi Fei's heart trembled: "Qiu Jiang!"
"My heart for Ruyimen is a lesson from heaven and earth. A mere face is nothing, and life can be taken away at any time." After finishing speaking, Qiu Jiang took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, **** his messy hair, and revealed Face, kneeling and sitting in front of Yi Fei.
Yi Fei stared at this face that was close at hand, but felt that it was getting farther and farther away from her.
what's on your mind?
why?
Why do you want to go back to Mrs. Ruyi regardless of everything?
There are many ways to kill Mrs. Ruyi, why choose this one? Or... you never thought of killing her at all. All you did was to return to her, win her favor again, and inherit her mantle?
Hongyu urged: "Do it! Why don't you start? Are you reluctant?"
After a moment of silence, Yi Fei drew the Bo Xing Sword from his waist, the thin blade reflected the candlelight, like two flames, jumping in each other's eyes.
The point of the sword stopped half a cent away from Qiu Jiang's cheek, Yi Fei turned his head and said, "That, or I won't see Mrs. Ruyi."
Hongyu waited with bated breath, seeing him repent halfway, she was furious: "What did you say?!"
"I thought about it, let's forget it. Madam Ruyi is so noble and powerful in your eyes, but in Xiao Wang's eyes, she is nothing more than that. She can't even fight Mr. Pin who doesn't know martial arts, and she even fell out with Yishu Yes. If I get involved with you, I might still lose. Forget it..."
Hongyu sneered and said: "Prince Cheng, the third prince, really cares about Xiangxiang and cherishes jade very much. He is not willing to scratch her face? Then I will scratch your face first!"
Seeing that Hongyu pulled out a dagger and was about to rush forward, Zhu Xiaozhao hurriedly stopped her.
"Let go of me! He doesn't know what to do, I'll teach him a lesson!"
"Don't worry, don't worry..." Although Zhu Xiaozhao's voice was still slow and limp, the movements of his hands were not slow at all. Hongyu was blocked by him, but she couldn't move, her face turned red with anger.
"Yi Fei, let me tell you, today you have to scratch her face, there is no other choice!"
Yi Fei turned to ask Qiu Jiang: "Why does she hate you so much? Just because you killed her man?"
"She has a lot of men, Wu'er is not that important." Qiu Jiang looked at Hongyu who was furious, and smiled, "She thinks I stole her name."
"what name?"
"Onyx. Her original name was Onyx."
Yifei suddenly realized, and looked at Hongyu in surprise: "Yo, do you still remember your original name?" As far as he knew, children like Jiang Jiang who were sold into Ruyimen at the age of nine were a minority, and most of them The disciples were not more than six years old when they started, and they had been retrained and reformed, so they basically didn't remember their names. For example, Qinjiu, Mangosteen, Songzhu, and the others knew nothing about their origins.
Hongyu seemed to be stopped by this question, her whole body froze, all her movements stopped, and she said in a hoarse voice after a while: "None of your business. Do you want to move or not?"
Yi Fei leaned back, folded his arms and smiled: "No."
Hongyu got angry again, turned her head and asked Zhu Xiaozhao: "Didn't Madam say what to do if he doesn't do it?"
Zhu Xiaozhao smiled slightly: "Madam said so. If the Third Highness doesn't do it, let him leave. In such a troubled time, one more friend is better than one more enemy."
Hongyu screamed: "What? Just let it go?"
Yi Fei raised his eyebrows, also very surprised.
Then Zhu Xiaozhao changed the subject, looked at Qiu Jiang and said, "But the Seven Lords will have to take some trouble."
"Can you finish the sentence in one breath? I'm so anxious!" Hongyu jumped.
"Don't worry, don't worry..." Zhu Xiaozhao said with a smile, "Didn't you always want to be an onyx? After the third highness left, you will fight against the seventh master. If you win, the number of onyx will be yours."
Hongyu's heart tightened: "Really? Life or death?"
"Yes. Madam said, if the Seven Lords can't beat you and die by your hands, then it's her incompetence."
"It's not fair!" Yi Fei stopped, "Qiu Jiang was seriously injured."
Zhu Xiaozhao said with a smile: "So, her life is actually in His Highness's hands."
Yi Fei thought to himself: As expected of being the leader of the most evil organization in the world, Mrs. Ruyi is far more vicious than anyone he has ever seen in his life.
At this moment, two paths were placed in front of him: one, scratch Hua Qiujiang's face, go back to Ruyi Gate with Qiu Jiang, and see what she will do next; two, leave alone regardless of Qiu Jiang's life or death.
Yi Fei clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves, loosened them, and repeated the cycle, a thin layer of sweat broke out in his palms.
Hongyu's eyes were burning, and she was eager to try.
There was a violent storm outside the window, and the hurricane seemed to tear off the roof. The animal skins nailed to the window lattice could not completely block the wind, and the icy air flowed in all directions. It was like he was sitting in a maelstrom and couldn't keep his composure any longer.
He looked at Qiu Jiang, and Qiu Jiang nodded to him, the meaning in his eyes was very clear: come!
She really didn't take disfigurement as a big deal at all.
Yi Fei couldn't help but think of other girls he knew: his own sister, Yi Shu, was the kind of maid whose head would be beheaded if she brushed off a single hair of hers; After leaving Chengjing, it returned to its original state. Especially on the boat back, because she was traveling with Ji Ying, whom she admired, she dressed herself up every day, just asking Ji Ying to take a look...
He had never seen a woman who didn't care about her looks—except Qiu Jiang.
Qiu Jiang never dresses up, and often disappears from the crowd, and adjusts her appearance according to the needs of the task at any time.
She is like a painting, all the color lines are added, but the real her is only pale.
So at this moment, she accepted the unbearable things in his eyes.
Yi Fei closed his eyes and let out a long sigh. Then, when he opened his eyes again, he picked up the Bo Xing Sword again.
Hongyu at the side pursed her lips tightly and stared wide-eyed, fearing that he would regret it again, and hoped that he would regret it again.
I saw Yi Fei flicked his wrist, and the paper-like blade of the sword straightened immediately. In his hand, it was like a pen, and it fell gently on Qiu Jiang's face.
Qiu Jiang felt a chill on his forehead and a tingling pain, and immediately after, a drop of blood slid down, right between his eyes, and slid down the bridge of his nose. The blood bead is very small, and it disappears when it slides halfway. But Yi Fei had already put away his sword and smiled: "Okay."
Hongyu on the side immediately jumped up: "This can't be counted!"
"Why not? I made five sword strikes, and I saw blood." Yi Fei stared at Zhu Xiaozhao, and said with a low face, "Could it be that you want to deny it?"
Zhu Xiaozhao wanted to laugh a little, but he still wanted to hug the angry Hongyu, and comforted him: "Don't worry, don't worry... this, well, let's take it home first, let the madam decide."
Qiu Jiang suddenly got up and went to the side to take a bronze mirror to check, and found that there was a flower on the center of her eyebrows: five petals, shaped like a butterfly, although the color was blood red, it could be seen that it was a **** flower.
Yi Fei actually tattooed a flower on her face!
No wonder Hongyu is so angry, because this flower is very beautiful, on her face, it adds highlights to her dull and ordinary facial features.
Qiu Jiang stared at herself in the mirror, and for a while, all kinds of emotions were mixed in her heart. Yi Fei's swordsmanship is really good, but what's even better is his shameless shamelessness. When Mrs. Ruyi came up with the question, she must have never thought that he would take advantage of the loopholes.
Hongyu was so angry that her eyes were red: "This doesn't count! You bastard! Qi'er, you have the guts to compete with me!"
Qiu Jiang put down the bronze mirror, turned to look at her, and replied, "I'm sorry, I've always been pretty clueless."
Hongyu could no longer speak a word.
Qiu Jiang's gaze met Yi Fei's, and Yi Fei blinked at her.
Talking about shameless shamelessness, Qiu Jiang thought, in fact, I am not bad.
