Chapter 382 Isn’t it wonderful?

In the evening, Yunfeng Mountain.

Xiao Jinxi smiled and said: "That's very good. I like Mr. Ye, a cheerful person. Then I'm all ears."

After a moment, Ye Qing finally said: "That's right. It was Nangong Chu who came to me back then and said that he wanted to arrange for Mei'er to go to Tianqi to get married. However, Mei'er was unruly and perverse by nature and might not be obedient, so she needed my help. What I agree with is that I poisoned Meier and forced her to come to Tianqi to get married, and I gave her the antidote many times, so she had to be obedient and stay in Tianqi."

Xiao Jinxi smiled in her eyes and said: "Well, when the young emperor of Dai Viet ascended the throne, and the Tianqi Qianxing Dynasty was at its peak, the Dai Viet court wanted to ease the relationship between the two countries through marriage. Instead of letting the Queen Mother arrange for others to be unable to control it, Nangong Chu Geng He is willing to choose Princess Mei because he thinks the old gentleman has a way to contain Princess Mei. Nangong Chu's move is understandable."

"But Mr. Ye, why did you agree? What good will this do to you? Besides, with such a big job, will Mr. Ye help Nangong Chu without any request? No, definitely not. Nangong Chu What kind of person is he? Since he wants your help, he is sure to convince the old gentleman. So, what is his reason for persuading the old gentleman? "

Hearing this, Ye Qing chuckled...and remained silent, not answering.

Xiao Jinxi looked at Ye Qing meaningfully and continued to smile: "Why don't you let me take a guess. Old sir, you might as well listen to it. Am I right?"

"When the old gentleman missed the position of clan leader in the Miao territory, he must have been brooding in his heart. He was obviously better at Gu than your senior brother, but he was defeated by him, and finally left unwillingly. This kind of unwillingness is heart-wrenching. ah."

"But if Princess Mei marries Prince Tianqi, the prince will ascend the throne and become Emperor Tianqi in the future, and Princess Mei will also enter the palace and become a concubine. If Princess Mei is lucky enough to give birth to a dragon son, then this dragon son will have the opportunity to become the next Tianqi in the future. The emperor, Princess Mei is the Queen Mother of Tianqi."

"Mr. Ye, if you control Princess Mei, you will have the opportunity to control the Apocalypse Emperor with the help of Princess Mei in the future."

"To fiddle with the wind and rain in the dark and control the emperor of a country is not more majestic than being the head of a clan! Back then, I was depressed in the Miao territory. Wouldn't it be great if I could show my talents to Emperor Tianqi! Mr. Ye, I said That’s right!”

Hearing this, Ye Qing chuckled at the corner of his mouth, and smiled for a moment: "Ha...ha...Miss Xiao is really powerful. That's right, why should I be buried with all my abilities! So what if he snatches the position of clan leader! He Forget it! The emperor has relied on me for a long time, but I am much more powerful than him!"

Xiao Jinxi narrowed her eyes, and sure enough! The only connection between Ye Qing and Murong Xuan is Princess Mei. Naturally, there is no relationship between the two, they are only attracted by mutual interests! Murong Xuan coveted Ye Qing's poison and poison skills! As for Ye Qing, he was proud that one day he could manipulate the emperor! There is also Nangong Chu, who covets the blood jade in Murong Xuan’s hands! These three people secretly colluded for what they wanted! And Tianqi's court, Tianqi's harem, and the people of Tianqi's Dayue have all become victims of their deliberate efforts!

Xiao Jinxi felt murderous intent flashing through her heart, but she still didn't show it on her face. She smiled and said, "Mr. Ye really has great ambitions! Nangong Chu really knows the old man and knows how to persuade you."

"But I'm curious. According to Princess Mei's temperament, would she really agree to marry and be trapped in the cage of Tianqi Palace just because you poisoned me? In my opinion, this is not the case. Princess Mei is more like A fish-or-death attitude."

"Mr. Ye, I'm afraid you are still hiding something, right? Xiao Yun from the Prince's Mansion at that time was probably the real reason that attracted Princess Mei to Tianqi, right?"

"Furthermore, I guess that Nangong Chu didn't know about Xiao Yun in the Prince's Mansion back then. No, it should be said that Nangong Chu didn't know that Xiao Yun was your apprentice. Mr. Ye, am I right?"

"Furthermore, how did Princess Mei know that Xiao Yun was in the Prince's Mansion? No, if Princess Mei had known about it, she would have gone to find it long ago. How could she be coerced by you?"

"Thinking about it this way, the person who knew Xiao Yun was in the Prince's Mansion should be the old gentleman. Mr. Ye, am I right?"

Hearing this, Ye Qing remained silent, chuckled, and looked at Xiao Jinxi...

Xiao Jinxi's voice sounded again: "It seems that what I said is right. But I am curious, how did Mr. Ye know that Xiao Yun was in the Prince's Mansion when he was far away in Dai Viet?"

"Mr. Ye, since we have already talked about it, let's just tell the whole story and don't whet my appetite. Murong Xuan is just a lost dog now, what else should you worry about."

After a moment, Ye Qing laughed and said: "Ha...ha...Miss Xiao is really smart. Why didn't Murong Xuan catch such a smart person! Otherwise, he wouldn't have fallen like this today. It seems like If we can cooperate with Miss Xiao, it will be just around the corner to refine the control Gu! Ha...ha..."

Xiao Jinxi smiled cooperatively and nodded...

Ye Qing's voice sounded again: "I didn't expect that Mei'er has been dead for so many years, and you can actually know Mei'er's temperament based on the information you investigated. Even Nangong Chu never doubted it back then."

"That's right, Nangong Chu only met Xiao Yun when he was a child, and only twice. At that time, he was just a little kid, thin and weak. Nangong Chu had no impression even if he had seen him. His name was not Xiao at that time. Yun, but Ye Xiao. There was no news after this unscrupulous man left. Ha...ha...Meier often waited for him in Fallen Leaf Valley, but never waited for his return."

"You are right. The person who knows that Xiao Yun is in Prince Tianqi's Mansion is me."

"In those years, the late Dai Viet emperor frequently invaded Tian Qi, and trade between Tian Qi and Dai Viet was also scarce. Later, when the late Dai Viet emperor died and the young emperor ascended the throne, the Dai Viet court began to show weakness, the relationship with the Tian Qi court also began to ease, and trade became active. So I sent Zhou Chang to Tianqi to sell Dai Viet’s specialty medicinal materials.”

It turns out that Zhou Da, no, it was Zhou Chang who became active in Tianqi so early! Xiao Jinxi narrowed her eyes, but her face was still expressionless, and she listened with a smile...

Ye Qing's voice continued: "Xiao Yun has often gone to the drug store since he was a child. The clerk in the drug store naturally knows him. Although Xiao Yun is no longer the young man he used to be after many years, Zhou Chang still recognized him."

"On that day, Emperor Zongyuan, who was still the prince, entertained envoys from other countries as usual. Zhou Chang passed by the Honglu Pavilion and happened to see the prince and his entourage arriving at the Honglu Pavilion. He actually saw Ye Xiao's figure beside the prince from a distance. In order to be sure I read it right, Zhou Chang even waited outside the Honglu Pavilion for them to come out, and finally when they came out, this time I really saw it clearly, that person was Ye Xiao."

"Later Zhou Chang inquired secretly, and only then did he find out that his current identity is actually Xiao Yun, the prince's bodyguard."

"Ha...Ha...Xiao Yun thinks that he can break away from the past by just running away and changing his name. It's really ridiculous! It is destined that he will never escape from my grasp in this life! Ha..." Ha ha···"

Seeing Ye Qing laughing wantonly and wildly, Xiao Jinxi felt murderous intent passing through his heart, but there was still a slight smile on his face...

Ye Qing's voice continued: "Later, I received a message from Zhou Chang, and I was still thinking about how to catch that kid. Unexpectedly, not long after, Nangong Chu came to me and discussed letting Meier go and get married. Ha...ha ...At this time, I know that to make Meier obedient and go to Tianqi, simply poisoning may not be effective, but with Xiao Yun, it will be different!"

"Ha...ha...I showed Mei'er the portrait sent back by Zhou Chang, but she was very happy. I told Mei'er that if she wanted to know the whereabouts of her senior brother, she must obey the order obediently. Go to Tianqi for a marriage. One month after she completes the marriage, I will ask her senior brother to find her with the antidote."

"Ha...ha...Meier has been thinking about Xiao Yun for many years. Now there is finally news. She will naturally be obedient, so she who originally ran away from the marriage has gone back to get married according to the order."

"I also warned her that she must not tell Nangong Chu about this matter, otherwise Nangong Chu might secretly kill Xiao Yun for fear of an accident regarding the marriage. I have said so, so Mei'er will naturally not tell Nangong Chu, and she also Go obediently to Tianqi and get married."

"Ha...ha...because I know that even if the two of them meet, even if Meier is desperate and wants to escape from the Prince's Mansion, Xiao Yun will never leave. These two have been childhood sweethearts, Meier The weight in Xiao Yun's heart is not small, Mei'er's life is more important than his own!"

"Back then, he attempted to assassinate me and fled from Dai Viet. He never saw Meier again, and he must have felt guilty. If he knew that Meier was poisoned because of him, he would definitely stay in the Prince's Mansion with Meier and wait for the detoxification. If he had stayed in Now that the prince's residence is over, Mei'er will naturally continue to stay in the prince's residence."

"Ha...ha...Facts have proved that what I expected was correct. The prince ascended the throne, Mei'er also gave birth to a dragon son, and she also entered the palace and became Mei Fei. All of this is finally going in the direction I thought. Development! Ha...ha..."

Xiao Jinxi smiled slightly: "Mr. Ye is really awesome! Everyone has entered your chess game without knowing it. Nangong Chu thought he knew you and could use you, but he didn't expect it and was used by Mr. Ye instead. . And Murong Xuan thought he could use you to ascend to the throne of the emperor, but he didn't know that it was only because the old gentleman wanted him to ascend to the throne of God that he assisted him." "Compared to the old gentleman, I failed much more. Murong Xuan has been deceiving him secretly for so many years. It sounds like today that my daughter really admires the old gentleman."

Hearing this, Ye Qing laughed heartily: "Ha...ha...it's easy to say, it's easy to say, Miss Xiao is so smart, she shouldn't have been deceived, but love hurts others and blinds her eyes. However, Miss Xiao It’s a good thing that the young lady can see clearly as soon as possible, and now that Murong Xuan has been defeated and deposed, Miss Xiao can finally breathe a sigh of relief.”

Xiao Jinxi nodded and smiled: "Well, what the old gentleman said makes sense. Old sir, we have to work together in the future, and you have to help me again. Tell me more about Murong Xuan, although Murong Xuan is now in decline. But I still have a bad tone. If I don't add insult to injury, it will be out of character for me. How are you, old gentleman?"

Ye Qing laughed heartily again and said: "Ha...ha...Miss Xiao is interesting. Okay, I will tell you what you want to know."

Xiao Jinxi praised very cooperatively: "I just like such a cheerful person like the old gentleman."

"Old sir, you have your reasons for helping Murong Xuan. But what about Nangong Chu? Among the princes back then, the sixth prince Murong Xuan was the least helpful. Why Nangong Chu chose to help the sixth prince could not be because of Princess Mei Well. I don’t believe this reason.”

"Ha...ha..." Ye Qing said with a smile: "You are right, naturally it cannot be because of Mei'er. That is because Nangong Chu wants to get the blood jade."

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxi smiled in her eyes and continued: "The blood jade of the Dai Viet royal family?"

Ye Qing was curious: "Oh, Miss Xiao actually knows about blood jade?"

Xiao Jinxi responded: "Blood jade is a treasure, so of course you know it. I heard that blood jade can protect the body, but the old man didn't know. Women in the boudoir love such things very much. Not only that, I heard that it can also heal the body." It’s a pity that the blood jade is owned by the Dai Viet royal family. The old gentleman is saying that Murong Xuan has the blood jade in his hands now, so Nangong Chu will help him? "

Ye Qing smiled and said: "Yes, the blood jade originally belonged to the Dai Yue royal family, but I don't know why it ended up in the hands of Murong Xuan."

"At that time, Murong Xuan asked me to help him contact Nangong Chu. It was the old man who told him that Princess Qi was suffering from a heart disease, but the Huanxincao in my hand could not protect Princess Qi for a long time. The Tianqi land is vast and rich, if he can It is not difficult to find the magic medicine to treat Princess Qi and ask Nangong Chu to help him. Unexpectedly, not long after, Murong Xuan sent a message saying that he had a blood jade in his hand."

Xiao Jinxi smiled and said: "That's it. But this thing is strange. How did the belongings of the Dai Viet royal family end up in Murong Xuan's hands? Didn't Nangong Chu check it?"

Ye Qing chuckled and said: "Of course he has investigated, but he still couldn't find the reason. Murong Xuan naturally wouldn't say anything, and only later did Nangong Chu agree to secretly assist him."

Xiao Jinxi narrowed her eyes, and Nangong Chu couldn't find the reason. It seems like it’s getting more and more interesting here!

Then he smiled and said: "It turns out that even Nangong Chu couldn't find it. Thinking about those years, the old gentleman and Nangong Chu should have secretly helped Murong Xuan a lot, right? At that time, Emperor Zong Yuan's health began to fail, and the princes began to participate in political discussions. . At that time, Murong Xuan would always give some sharp suggestions from time to time, which was quite popular with Emperor Zongyuan. Now that I think about it, Nangong Chu, the source of these messages, must have made a lot of contributions."

"Ha...ha..." Ye Qing chuckled and said: "Miss Xiao is right. Of course, without our secret help, how could Murong Xuan ascend to the throne of God so smoothly."

Xiao Jinxi nodded in response: "It makes sense. But old gentleman, you are helping Murong Xuan like this. Doesn't Emperor Zong Yuan know it at all?"

"You know, Emperor Zongyuan, who was still the crown prince at that time, had a very good relationship with Nangong Chu. But you have secretly helped Murong Xuan plan for his throne from such an early age."

Ye Qing smiled and said: "Ha...ha...yes, the relationship between these two people was indeed good back then. Although Emperor Zongyuan was the legitimate son and the crown prince, his abilities were far inferior to those of the other princes. Naturally, he felt that I was worried and wanted to find help secretly. But time passed and Emperor Zongyuan ascended the throne, so many things were naturally different."

Xiao Jinxi responded with a smile: "Well... what the old gentleman said makes sense. It seems that the old gentleman is quite familiar with the affairs between Emperor Zong Yuan and Nangong Chu. No wonder Emperor Zong Yuan sent Xiao Tianhao there. Get it from Jishengtang Pharmacy and take it from Meiren."

"Beauty disappears!" Ye Qing was surprised: "It turns out that the young man sent by Emperor Zong Yuan back then was actually Xiao Tianhao."

Xiao Jinxi responded with a smile: "Yes, it's a pity that you missed it and didn't have the chance to see it."

Ye Qing chuckled: "Miss Xiao actually knew such a hidden thing. The secret letter I saw back then was not opened, and my reply was also sealed. Besides, Emperor Zong Yuan would never be able to Obviously, there are not many people who can recognize Meirenxiao. Did Xiao Tianhao tell you? Back then, Xiao Tianhao was so young, but he could recognize Meirenxiao? Or was it Xiao Yun who told you?"

Xiao Jinxi responded cooperatively: "Of course it was Xiao Tianhao who told me. Xiao Yun and I don't even have any friendship, so naturally he wouldn't tell me this."

"Back then, Xiao Tianhao was still young and very curious, so he secretly went to his master and asked about it. Only then did he find out that the little thing in the box was called Beauty Xiao."

Ye Qing smiled and said: "Ha...ha...that's it. I'm curious, how could Xiao Yun know about the things Emperor Zong Yuan sent to get, and why he went back to Fallen Leaf Valley just for Beauty Xiao. You know, since After he failed to assassinate me and escaped, he never went back."

"Miss Xiao, since you know so much, do you know who Emperor Zongyuan used that beauty Xiao back then?"

Xiao Jinxi narrowed her eyes, you didn't know? And he gave away the Gu insect so readily? What is the relationship between you and Emperor Zongyuan?

Then he pretended to be surprised and said: "Mr. Ye doesn't know about it? I have investigated this matter, but I haven't found anything yet. I thought that Mr. Ye would know, but I also wanted to ask Mr. Ye. .”

Ye Qing responded: "This old man doesn't know. Emperor Zongyuan wrote that he needed a medicine that can make people run out of energy and can't find out the reason, so I gave him Beauty Killer."

Then he was confused: "Miss Xiao doesn't know either? Since Xiao Tianhao knows that it is Beauty Killer, he also told you. Didn't he tell you who this thing is used on?"

Xiao Jinxi responded with a smile: "Because even Xiao Tianhao didn't know. Back then, he was still young and curious, but also timid and fearful. He was the emperor's secret guard, but he secretly asked his master and secretly inquired about the emperor's affairs. , this is a matter of losing one's head. And knowing that the little thing is so powerful, he is even more frightened. After returning to the palace and handing it over to Emperor Zongyuan, he hid as far away as he could. Therefore, he also did what happened next. Don’t know.”

Ye Qing responded: "That's it."

Xiao Jinxi continued: "It's just that I didn't expect that the old gentleman would give away such a good thing without knowing the reason."

Hearing this, Ye Qing responded: "At that time, there were several Huanxincao plants that were at a critical moment. I wanted to keep an eye on the Huanxincao and couldn't go there, so I asked the waiter to kill the beauty to the visitor. By the way, it was Xiao Tian. Hao, I heard that he took the Gu worm and left. It was just a beauty, it wasn’t a big deal, so I didn’t ask about it in detail.”

In a word, it’s just that beauty disappears, it’s not a big deal! The hands under Mo Yi's sleeves clenched instantly, suppressing the anger and murderous intent in his heart! But Ye Qing, who was looking arrogant outside the pavilion, was completely unaware of this scene.
