you got on my tail

Chapter 73 Lantern Festival Chapter 23

The author has something to say: I was changing the outline just now, and I accidentally pasted the outline, and pretended not to see what I saw, but now the treacherous minister has jumped back, so there is no suspense...

Rumors spread everywhere outside the city. Some people said that a few days ago, there was a silver dragon leaping outside the Great Wall, which was a sign of the real dragon emperor.

Battle reports came one after another, all about how vulnerable the frontier generals were, and surrendered.

Not only that, but the previously insane general Liu Yan also regained his spirits and organized a group of militiamen to revolt in Lingnan, threatening to avenge the deposed prince.

Those who should come have come, and those who shouldn't have come have also come, which is very lively.

In the imperial garden of the capital, Fu Jiying didn't read the battle report at this moment. He stood in front of a peony with his hands behind his back.

As mid-spring approached, it unexpectedly snowed in the capital, and the newly bloomed flowers and trees were all withered, except for the peonies standing alone.

That peony is extremely coquettish and worth thousands of gold. Beauty Xiao in the palace specially found someone to plant it in an attempt to ease the tension.

"It's only the end of February, and the peonies are already blooming." Fu Jiying smiled softly, stroking the pattern of the sword with her right hand, "My concubine, you really have a heart."

"Yes." Xiao Meiren pinched her throat, "Your Majesty, don't worry, this is a good omen for our Great Zhou."

"A good omen for the Great Zhou? Is it the same as the silver dragon coming out of the water, a good omen for my brother to enter the capital?" Fu Jiying's eyes changed slightly, the sword in his hand was already out of its sheath, and the sharp blade quickly pierced into her embroidery With Narcissus's plump chest, the maids' eyes were wide open, and they knelt softly on the ground.

Fu Jiying slashed at the peony with a sword, and the soil and petals shattered all over the ground, but the palace servants did not dare to approach and clean it up, their eyes slightly hesitant.

"I see you..." Fu Jiying sneered again, raised his sword and looked around, "You all want to die."

"Your Majesty!" Before he swung his sword again, someone rushed to kneel down quickly, ignoring the broken rubble on the ground, and just firmly pressed Fu Jiying's wrist.

"Your Majesty!" Wei Lan yelled again, some bloodstains oozed from his trousers, and the little bloodstains in the white snow instantly soothed Fu Jiying's emotions. He dropped his sword, helped Wei Lan up, and turned around by himself, with a slightly sad expression on his face.

"The slave has something to play." Wei Lan gritted her teeth and knelt down again.

"If something is compromised, there's no need to talk about it." Fu Jiying didn't look back, and waved his hands with a sneer, "King Yan is just a defeated general, a sinister villain, and I will take care of him when he comes to the capital."

"King Yan is despicable, but he is willing to be humiliated, and he is not easy to deal with." Wei Lan pulled his skirt, the expression in his eyes changed slightly, "But King Yan raised troops to clear the king's side, not to make things difficult for the emperor. "

"What do you mean!" Fu Jiying raised his foot, hit Wei Lan's heart, and kicked him three steps away.

"The slave has something to play! It's absolutely true!" Wei Lan continued to kneel and raised his voice sharply, "About Master Bai!"

……

At this moment, the whole country is full of wind and rain, but Bai Xuehe is very happy, it can be said that he is very happy.

Even if the world falls, he can still ransack the house. In the eyes of people like Bai Xuehe, ransacking the house is equivalent to stealing money.

So, after hearing the news that he could copy Prince Yu's Mansion, he once again showed a high level of recovery ability, and quickly recovered his health within half a month. Naturally, it is no problem to get any pearls and gold.

King Yu Fu Jiheng was crazy, wandering around in the yard with a smirk on his face, several clerks and Jin Yiwei kept shuttling, registering the things in Prince Yu's mansion one by one.

It's a pity that Fu Jiheng likes martial arts and doesn't like gold, silver and jewelry. Except for some valuable weapons, he really can't find any valuables that can be pawned and sold. Fu Jiheng sighed, feeling that the trip was in vain.

Fu Jiheng strolled all over the yard, watching others move his things curiously, some of them didn't even look at them, and some of them even came up to grab them.

Bai Xuehe had an idea, and he went to take whatever he thought King Yu was robbing, but King Yu was different from him, what he robbed was not treasures, but junk instead.

"Master Bai, these things were all rewarded by the former emperor and the queen mother." Seeing that King Yu was holding on to him, the old housekeeper of the palace came to smooth things over, "Look, our prince is already like this. These are all belongings of our parents. Just rely on him..."

"Okay." Bai Xuehe raised his eyebrows and waved to Jin Yiwei, feeling that there was really nothing to search here, and signaled everyone to leave as a team.

Fu Jiheng was still sitting on the ground drooling, throwing away all the rewards, holding something tightly in his hands, which seemed to be a box for books.

"Bring it." Bai Xuehe stopped and turned around, narrowed his eyes, and pointed forward.

Jin Yiwei rushed up immediately, and pulled people away. Fu Jiheng immediately sat on the ground, and started crying like a child. Keep touching his head.

Things that can make a fool miss must be extremely important to him.

He is here to investigate treason, even if this thing is worthless, it must be unusual, maybe it can be used to blackmail the relevant people.

So Bai Xuehe walked into the study with the bookcase in his arms, motioned for everyone to go down, and gently opened the bookcase by himself.

What was placed in the bookcase was not books, but some letters, including the imperial decree left by the former emperor and the empress dowager's decree.

Bai Xuehe was a little disappointed at the moment, but still raised his hands and flipped through them. These wishes were all golden, but there was one letter that was different, it was very plain, and its color was sallow and old.

He thought he had finally found some evidence of King Yu's adultery, excitedly took a closer look, and there were four characters written on the cover of the letter, "Lanzi Qingqi".

Bai Xuehe paused suddenly, and then sighed silently. He didn't expect that he would see this name, which he hadn't heard for many years, here.

Bai Xuehe was stunned for a while, although he was curious, he still put the letter away, and then put it into the mess.Perhaps the letter had been left on for too long, and the sealing paste had lost its stickiness, and the letter inside slipped out along the letter and fell to the ground.

"Forget it, you are not born to be rich and honored, and if you collide with the imperial decree, you will fall out."

Bai Xuehe smiled silently, stretched out his hand to pick up the letter, and accidentally saw a few words inside, the title on the paper was very small, but his whole body trembled with fright, and he threw the letter to the ground again.

Then he picked up the letter paper and read it word by word again. The letter was indeed written by King Yu to Lan Ziqing, and it was also about investigating the case in the Liu Mansion in the past, asking him to take care, asking him to be careful, there was not a single word wrong.

It's just that the two have a close relationship, so King Yu called Lan Ziqing by a nickname or an alias, and the two words "Rutong" on the head should be Lan Ziqing's name.

The phoenix rests on the phoenix tree, and the phoenix tree symbolizes noble aspirations and unparalleled wealth and honor. It is an absolutely good word, but it is indeed a coincidence.

A few years ago, the waste prince once painted paintings with his brothers, and they met to sell them on the street to see who could sell them at the highest price. In order not to reveal their identities, everyone's signatures were improvised.

The painting that Fu Jijue once made was signed "Ru Tong".

Holding the letter, Bai Xuehe moved towards the outside of the house step by step, his steps became heavier and heavier, and the wound on his body became heavier.

The sun was shining, and it should be in this study. King Yu regarded Lan Ziqing as a close friend, so he talked with him about how to attack him. King Yu was polite, so he asked him what he wanted.

I and Lan Ziqing are not close friends, not even friends, so I never asked his name, just because it is convenient to investigate the case, and I happened to read the county's documents and files, so he should not remember it wrong. Hong, no number, no word "Rutong" at all.

It must be that when King Yu asked, "Lan Ziqing" standing here was flustered for a moment, and thought of a word at random. After all, he could not have imagined that King Yu would write such a letter that he didn't have time to send.

Suddenly, Bai Xuehe figured out many things.

The first case that brought him into contact with everything was that Xu Lingxiao's dog killed a young man, but the clothes found on the body that day were very rough, not at all like the silk and satin worn by the young man.

But at that time, in order to close the case and rescue Ruan Jianghe, he had to think about that, and had to use this case to threaten the Queen Mother.

Later, I went to see Ruan Jianghe, and Ruan Jianghe handed him the pot of orchids, and instructed him to investigate the mine disaster, dig out Xu Yan, and later forced Xu Yan to rebel.

Since Lan Ziqing is not Lan Ziqing, then Ruan Jianghe may not be Ruan Jianghe.

The corpses at that time had been torn into pieces, and the identification of people was based on the clothes on their bodies. The clothes were rough and rough, which happened to be Ruan Jiang's prison uniform, but Xu Lingxiao's knife was used to obtain this identity. As long as Ruan Jianghe was let out, as long as Give the orchid to yourself.

And the corpse of Ruan Jianghe the second time might be the young lady who has been missing all along.

When investigating the mine disaster, he met Yuyan again, Yuyan wanted to kill someone, so why did he have to wait until he returned to the coal mine again, and let Canghua find out about the mine accident in a complicated way? Because Lan Ziqing needs to disappear, and King Yan needs to appear in the capital.

As for why Jin Yiwei all died in the mine accident, but he was able to escape completely, but Lan Ziqing couldn't even find the corpses.

Or in the mining accident, Lan Ziqing was a scholar, but he was tall and skilled in martial arts, and his body was covered with scars.

Li Lun was guarded by countless brocade guards, but he was able to commit suicide without anyone knowing, forcing Li Yuan to raise his troops.

There was also Xiao Wei's sudden accident, and Wei Lan didn't know who leaked his whereabouts, and the snacks Xiao Wei sent turned into a poison that made him addicted again.

All of these things, twisting around the thread and lifting the thread, it turns out that everything can be solved by a law.

King Yan was placed under house arrest in the mansion, and indeed he could not go anywhere, but it was not King Yan who was in the mansion at first.

Bai Xuehe knew long ago that there are monsters and monsters in the world, who can change into other people at will.

The world is like a play. It turns out that a person can hide many things by changing his appearance.

At this moment, the sun was almost noon, Bai Xuehe suddenly opened the door of the study, the bright sun shone on his face, and his cheeks were obviously warm, but he only felt waves of coldness, which made his heart unable to stop Shivering, and eventually even the shoulders were trembling.

Just as he clearly wanted the King of Yan to raise troops, and wanted to see him descend from the sky like a magic soldier like today, why was he so unhappy and so choked in his throat.

Suddenly there was a commotion outside, it seemed that countless people were approaching, like a good show performed together, you will sing and I will appear on the stage.

A bright yellow figure approached, and countless people surrounded the study room. Bai Xuehe stood for a long time before regaining his senses, and then he knelt down obliquely. He was alone in the crowd, just like in the prison in the past, there were also such a few people, surrounded Looking at him, ready to force him to confess something.

He didn't know what he should confess, so he suddenly grinned the corners of his mouth and laughed very inappropriately. Every time he encountered bad things, he would laugh. It seemed that just by smiling, he could coax himself to accept the present and start over.

Seeing him laughing, Fu Jiying sneered, turned away the crowd, then stepped forward quickly, the sword in his hand was already out of the sheath, and cut obliquely into Bai Xuehe's heart, blood fell, as if it was only a hair's breadth away from life and death.

"Aiqing, you are very powerful." Fu Jiying stretched out his hand and squeezed his chin tightly, "I am ashamed of myself for being able to make good decisions."

Bai Xuehe's body was trembling, but his face was full of smiles. He wanted to stop, but his grin became more ferocious. It turned out that he had been so humble for a long time, and he couldn't even remember which muscle to mobilize and which to move if he wanted to be angry. nerve.

Just now, someone killed Bai Ganoderma lucidum and sent it to Jinyi Guards. Only then did Fu Jiying know that the person who warmly promised him during the New Year that the monarch and his ministers would be one-hearted, had already set up a network of heaven and earth, just waiting to invite you into the urn.

He deliberately didn't go to the Lantern Festival banquet, not because he wanted to make up for the fireworks on the fifteenth day with himself, but to send out the signal to make Li Yuan wholeheartedly plot against him.

"It took me so long to treat you sincerely." Fu Jiying suddenly felt a little dazed, let go of his hands and stood up straight, then smiled coldly, and the sword in his hand pierced another point, "So it's still useless."

"emperor!"

Wei Lan stepped forward to block him, but was pushed away by him.

Reluctantly, Wei Lan stepped forward again and grabbed Fu Jiying's sword sharply. Blood gradually dripped from between his fingers and formed a puddle. Bai Xuehe just knelt straight and did not speak.

"Your Majesty! The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty! You can't punish a doctor!"

After saying this, Fu Jiying's approaching hand finally stopped. Looking at the extremely weak face, he finally threw down his sword and waved his hand as a signal.

Countless people swarmed up and dragged Bai Xuehe away.

Fu Jiying squinted at him all the time, his eyes met each other, and each other's eyes were imprinted with each other's figure.

Maybe the sun was too bright. At this moment, Fu Jiying suddenly felt dazed. He swallowed a mouthful of fishy sweetness deep in his throat.

………………

Tongguan, thousands of miles away, is full of moonlight.

Cang Hua put his saber on his shoulders, took off the armor he had envied layer by layer and put it on the table, and finally disappeared under the moonlight.

Just now in the big tent, Li Ye explained a lot of truths to him, such as Qingjun side is just an excuse, this is the reason Bai Xuehe came up with himself, as long as he can kill the emperor, it doesn't matter if Qingjun side is not.

In the letter, Bai Xuehe asked him to be obedient and not to cause trouble, but Cang Hua still felt uncomfortable, he couldn't hear that Bai Xuehe was a treacherous minister, and he always felt that this trick was confusing.

Now that King Yan can enter the capital and the Emperor will die sooner or later, these schemes have nothing to do with them. Bai Xuehe has fulfilled his wish, so he can fly away with him and leave this world where he is helpless.

Cang Hua started to run wildly against the moonlight, he wanted to go back to the capital alone, and fetch Bai Xuehe out.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the moonlight was gradually buried in the dark clouds, and there was a sound of footsteps of people and horses. Cang Hua suddenly stopped, and looked up to look around.

The four sides were originally flat sand, but after a while someone came out, and those people gathered more and more, gradually surrounding him layer by layer, but there was no other sound except for the sound of footsteps.

Cang Hua raised his head, only to realize that the people surrounding him were not "people", but walking corpses with rotting flesh. These things looked disgusting, but they didn't frighten him.

"Hey!" These things can't move on their own, presumably there are some ghosts and ghosts behind them, Cang Hua is too lazy to fight with them, and anxiously raised his voice: "I'm very busy, come out quickly!"

There was silence all around, more and more walking corpses surrounded, and finally the birds and beasts became silent, Cang Hua drew out his sword, severely chopped off the heads of the two walking corpses, then kicked them flying, along the heads, The heads of a row of walking corpses were kicked off, Gu Lulu turned around, and even slipped and fell with several walking corpses.

This scene was very funny, and Cang Hua wanted to laugh too, but he only had that person in the capital in his heart, and he had no intention of fooling around with them, so he still raised his eyes and shouted: "I said you are sick! Come out quickly!"

Under the moonlight, a person gradually came out. This person was wearing a flirtatious red dress, with long hair and high buns, holding a stack of talisman papers in his hand.

The walking dead swayed to make way for him, Li Ye raised his head, his jet-black hair kept rising under the moonlight, showing off his fair skin and fine features, and his red clothes were neat, vaguely he was the fox demon A Li who told stories in the valley.

Cang Hua's eyes widened, and he felt that his figure was very familiar. What made him familiar was not only the kind A Li in the enchantment of Fangcun Mountain, but also the scene he had seen many years ago.

The fox demon who controls the walking dead, the vines that drill out of the ground, and the huge sea beast, the giant eagle with its wings exposed...

He felt that something was wrong with his mind, so he quickly turned his head away and pointed his sword at Li Ye, "Fox, what are you doing? What's wrong with you!"

"Perhaps you have already discovered that King Yan's aura is very strange." Li Ye spoke softly and slowly, still telling a story, and then simply sat on the ground, "He is obviously a mortal, why is there something wrong with him? Entwined, as if entangled for several lifetimes."

"So what!" Cang Hua was very impatient, "I found out that he was wrong, but I didn't say anything or do anything, did you do something... Oh, anyway, I don't have time to care about your shit, give me Step aside!"

"I can't let you!" Li Yehu raised his voice, his voice was a little sad, and then he smiled wryly, "King Yan is the reincarnation of the demon god, and the countless causes and effects on him are all because of the remnant soul left by the demon god. You fight each other, and your souls are scattered, I sealed your soul in Fangcun Mountain, but his has never been seen, so I searched everywhere until I met Fu Jijue!"

Hearing this, Cang Hua was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly became silent, but the silence quickly disappeared, and the corners of his lips curled up, still showing half of his unruly canine teeth.

"You want to avenge him?" Cang Hua smirked, and simply threw the sword on the ground, "Fox, you come here, I'm not talking, but you can't hurt a single hair of me just by making these junky things!"

"If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't leave your soul in Fangcun Mountain." Li Ye smiled lightly, clearly feeling very helpless, "I am a demon together with you, no matter how much you deny it, you are not Humans are not gods in the heavens."

"I have already said that I am the Dragon God! What exactly do you want?" Cang Hua was completely impatient, and swung his sword to chop down the two walking corpses, "I still have to go to the capital to find Bai Xuehe, don't cause trouble here, maybe I can still let you go!"

"I have the Command Spell of the Demon God, and I have to use all the corpses and beasts in a radius of hundreds of miles." Li Ye held up the talisman, his black hair scattered, and red fire ignited in his eyes, "Cang Hua, can you Enter my demon world once, and now you have half a soul left, can you destroy my demon world again?"

Cang Hua didn't speak, he put the sword across his shoulder, still smiling.

"Well, let's discuss it." The Dragon God was still fearless, with only disdain in his eyes, and the noble light pierced Li Ye's eyes, "When I rescue Bai Xuehe and take him to a safe place, I will come fight with you."

"You are the dragon god, and King Yan is the demon god. Even if he has been reincarnated as a human, you are destined to be incompatible." Li Ye closed his eyes and lowered his voice, "So I will not let you stay in this world, only you Only when I'm truly out of my mind can I feel at ease."

"You think I care about this?" Cang Hua smirked, with an even more disdainful expression on his face, "I'm here to take part in your messy affairs, all because Bai Xuehe couldn't swallow this breath, and wanted to watch King Yan send the emperor to die with his own eyes. Not because of fighting with you!"

Li Ye waited for a long time, and his voice suddenly trembled. He hated the following words, but he had to say and do it.

"Canghua, why don't you understand!" Li Ye took a deep breath, then raised his head, only the darkness of the night remained in his eyes, "I tell you, everything from Ruan Jianghe's death was Bai Xuehe's plan. Kill the emperor! It was the emperor who made him a villain, and let him kill people like a hemp! Why did he have to stay in the world after being hurt so badly? It’s just to avenge him today that he can’t even die in peace!”

Cang Hua whispered, as if he still couldn't bear to hear Bai Xuehe's severe injuries, "I know all about this."

"You don't know." Li Ye also lowered his voice, not daring to meet Shang Canghua's expression, "I'm waiting here, which is also one of his exhaustive plans."
