Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 1236
In the main room of the cave mansion, Tangning was practicing the Tianyan Sword Art one move at a time. The stone door was pushed open and Liu Ruhan walked in gracefully.

"Ruru, what's the matter that Huang Qing is calling you here at this time?" Tangning put away the Golden Thunder Sword and walked towards her. Huang Qing is the leader of the team, so he sent someone to call her in a hurry. Said that there was something important to discuss.

Liu Ruhan took his hand and sat down beside him, and said in a low voice, "The Sima clan sent someone here, and Huang Qing asked me to ask about the situation."

"Ah? Sima, what are they doing here, and what does it have to do with you?" Seeing her like this, Tangning knew that she must have something to hide from her. A flash of light flashed in her mind, and she suddenly asked, "Are you looking for trouble with Sima?" gone?"

"Ah."

"Didn't I tell you that this matter is over, why are you still going to trouble them?"

Liu Ruhan rested her head on his shoulder: "They bullied my husband, and caused her to be demoted by one level. I couldn't get angry, so I found some trouble for them."

Tangning held her hand and put it in her arms, "My demotion is irreversible, so why bother with them? If your master knows about this, you must have been instigated by me to use you to vent Revenge for personal anger. Even if it spreads to other people's ears, the influence will not be good, it seems that we are relying on your master's power, just like not forgiving others."

"Who told them to bully your husband? If you don't give them some color, they think we are easy to bully. Maybe they will make things difficult for your husband next time."

Tangning smiled, "You're like a dandy second-generation ancestor now. Who else knows about this matter except you? Does your senior brother know?"

"I asked the following disciples to do it. The Sima family has a shop in Lishi. I asked them to find fault. They arrested the son of Sima Nan, who was in charge of Sima's affairs in Donglai County, and detained one of their merchant ships. Sima's shop Block it."

"Why didn't you tell me."

"Your husband knows, you will definitely not let me do it."

Tangning shook her head helplessly, "Who did the Sima Clan send here?"

"It's Sima Nan."

"Is he here to protest or to intercede? Have you seen him?"

"No, he probably didn't know who was behind them, so he came to find out the situation. First, he found Wei Xin, the deputy captain of the direct column, and then Wei Xin called Huang Qing over."

"When did you tell the disciples of the alliance to do it?"

"After Husband told me, I wanted to deal with them and vent my anger on Husband. After the discussion that day, I summoned the captain of the first brigade directly under him. He used to be the apprentice of the senior brother. I secretly ordered him to do it."

……

In the majestic and majestic cave, a white-faced middle-aged man stepped in, bowed to the white-haired old man sitting cross-legged in the inner room, and saluted: "Disciple pays homage to uncle."

"Have you checked it out? What's going on?"

"The disciple has made it clear that the actions of the disciples of the first brigade of the headquarters are under the direct command of Junior Sister Liu Ruhan. Zhang Ziyuan, the first captain of the headquarters, received an order from Junior Sister Liu to go to Donglaili City to find trouble with Mrs. Sima. All orders are under the orders of Junior Sister Liu. No one else in the headquarters knows what one person said." Huang Qing, the captain of the fourth regiment directly under the column, replied.

Wei Xin frowned slightly: "Why did she bother Sima? Is there any conflict between them?"

"I asked Junior Sister Liu, and she admitted that she ordered the operation of the first brigade. I asked her the reason, and she said that Mrs. Sima was too deceitful and needed to be beaten. I think there must be some personal grievances between the two. But the disciple again When asked further, she refused to speak again. My disciple thought, could it be?"

Seeing his hesitant expression, Wei Xin naturally knew who he was referring to. The relationship between Liu Ruhan, the inspector of the fourth regiment, and Su Yuanhua, the inspector of the directly subordinate column was well known, and it was the fourth who carried out specific tasks. Zhang Ziyuan, the captain of the first brigade of the alliance, was born as a disciple of Su Yuanhua's entourage, so it has to be suspected that it was Su Yuanhua who gave the order.

"You go first! Don't spread this matter."

"Disciple knows. Disciple leaves." Huang Qing retreated in response.

Wei Jie pondered for a while, then got up and left the room, and came to Su Yuanhua's cave. Soon, a disciple inside led him into the inner room.

"Junior Brother Su, I'm sorry to bother you." Wei Jie smiled and went to Su Yuanhua, who was sitting in the main seat.

"Brother Wei, please sit down."

"Junior Brother Su, I won't hide it from you, this time I'm bothering you about something."

"Brother Wei, please tell me."

"Sima Nan came to look for me. He offended Junior Sister Ling for some reason. Other things are easy to talk about. He just hopes that Junior Sister Ling will be lenient and let his son Sima Guan go."

"Sima Nan?"

"Does Junior Brother Su not know about this?"

"I really don't know, what's going on?"

"It's like this. Mrs. Sima offended Junior Sister Ling for some reason. The former, Junior Sister Ling ordered the First Division of the Fourth Regiment to go to Lishi to trouble them. First, they arrested Sima Guan, the son of Sima Nan, and then seized a merchant ship of theirs. For this reason, they sealed off their store in Lishi. Sima Nan found me because of this, and he doesn't know the specifics of the situation, he only knows that our disciples directly under the column did it."

"Oh!" Su Yuanhua nodded calmly: "I really don't know about this matter, Senior Brother Wei, I will give you an answer after I understand the situation first, what do you think?"

Wei Xin smiled slightly: "Junior Brother Su, don't get me wrong. I didn't come here to inquire about the crime. I thought you knew about it, so I came to ask about the situation and see how I should answer Sima Nan. But having said that, the Sima Clan is exterminating I also put in a lot of effort during the rebellion, so that no matter what conflicts my junior sister has with them, I personally hope that the big things can be turned into small ones, and small things can be turned into good things."

"I see. Thank you, Brother Wei, for letting me know. Otherwise, I would have been kept in the dark about this matter. My junior sister has stayed with the master for too long, and the master dotes on her, so I do things a little as I like. Except for the master, even I can't handle her much."

"Junior Sister Ling has been in the headquarters for so long, and she hasn't had any troubles. She has always behaved well. I think she got angry this time. I don't know why Sima Shi has provoked her. I'm not saying good things for Sima Shi. I just hope that it will not cause a big friction between the two sides."

The two chatted for a few words, Wei Xin left and left, returned to the mansion, summoned a follower disciple, wrote a letter to him and said: "You take this letter to Sima Nan."

"Yes." The disciple immediately responded and left.

……

"Brother, did you come here for the Sima family's business?" Liu Ruhan asked as soon as the husband and wife sat down in Su Yuanhua's cave.

"Simanan came to the headquarters. Wei Jie also came to me just now, and he is still waiting for my answer. Junior sister, tell me how to answer them." Although Su Yuanhua asked Liu Ruhan, his eyes kept wandering. On Tang Ning.

Apparently, he thought that Liu Ruhan was instigated by Tangning, and that's why he attacked Sima. Of course, he couldn't blame him, anyone would think so.

"Brother is blaming me for not causing trouble with the Sima family?" Liu Ruhan asked coldly.

"You can't do something to others for no reason! Now they have come to the door and want to give an answer for brother, but brother has been kept in the dark, and I don't know what happened. Junior sister, do you think it is appropriate to do this? ?”

"Brother, what do you mean that I have troubled you? If senior brother is afraid of the Sima family, just hand me over to them and let them come to me directly. No matter what the consequences are, I will bear it all and never drag senior brother down. "

Facing Su Yuanhua's implicit accusation, Liu Ruhan pointed the needle at Maimang. As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room became a little dignified. The two looked at each other, and they never gave in.

Tangning didn't expect that Ruru, who was always gentle, would be so strong in front of Su Yuanhua, and her attack power was immediately full. These words had already cornered Su Yuanhua, forcing him to take sides between the two.

"That's right, Senior Brother Su, my wife did this for me. You know the conflict between me and Mrs. Sima. My wife asked Sima to make trouble for me. The reason why I didn't tell you is that I was afraid that you would stop this matter, I didn't expect that Sima would directly find you, this matter is because we didn't think carefully, I hope Senior Brother Su will not blame you."

Tangning saw that the two of them had already reached the point of tit for tat and swords were on the verge of breaking out. She was really worried that Su Yuanhua would tear her face apart because of this, so she opened her mouth to ease the tense and silent atmosphere, and took the responsibility for it.

Unexpectedly, Su Yuanhua smiled slightly, and shook his head helplessly: "Junior Sister! Brother, I really can't do anything with you, just tell me! How are you going to end up?"

"Then it depends on which side the brother is on. Senior brother, you are not ignorant of the grievances between the Sima family and my husband. Now that things have happened, are you going to side with the Sima family against us? You also want to side with us against Sima family?" Liu Ruhan refused to let it go, and tried to force him to clarify his attitude and position by taking advantage of the slope.

"Junior sister, why bother to ask, how could brother be on the side of Sima's family? Brother Wei came to you just to understand the situation and hear your plans. Junior sister must be at odds with the Sima family. Of course, brother supports you, but having said that , is it necessary to do this? Do you have to make a fuss so that the fish will die and the net will be broken?"

"The Sima family knew about the relationship between your husband and us, but they still wantonly insulted your husband. It shows that they don't take Master seriously, otherwise they wouldn't do this. Shouldn't we teach them a lesson? Senior brother, can you tolerate their behavior? Disrespecting the master's behavior? If we don't show them the color, the master will be disgraced if the news spreads, what will outsiders think? We were bullied by Mrs. Sima, and we dare not even fight back. Isn't it a joke?"

Liu Ruhan spoke incessantly and questioned her repeatedly.

It was only then that Tangning realized that she was so eloquent and sharp-tongued. When the two of them were together, she was not so eloquent. But thinking about it carefully, she would never argue with herself.

Her words can be said to have grasped Su Yuanhua's lifeline, and directly bound her face with Nangong Muxue's face. It was well-founded, and if Su Yuanhua did not support it, she would be ignoring Nangong Muxue's face.

This is Su Yuanhua's only weakness. As Nangong Muxue's eldest disciple, he must try his best to maintain Nangong Muxue's face, both externally and internally. This is his insurmountable bottom line.

Sure enough, when Su Yuanhua heard this, the smile that had been hanging on his face slowly froze, and his expression became a little dignified. He had only two choices now. First, he did not recognize Tangning's own identity.

Second, support the attack on Sima and retaliate.
