Master, stay safe

Chapter 8 Confession
After the beginning of spring, spring rains often come every few days. This time, I went to Cangcheng and traveled for half a month. There was a patter of spring rain for seven or eight days.As dusk was approaching, we didn't hurry and stopped at a nearby post station.

As soon as I got out of the car, the wind and rain came, and it was a little cold. I shivered and rubbed my arms subconsciously.

I held up the bamboo bone umbrella, glanced ahead, and pretended to be my winter peach was being rushed into the post station.Jun Qingyan's voice sounded beside his ears, "Don't look, just go in."

I nodded, and looked at Jun Qingyan indistinctly from the corner of my eye.

I was holding an umbrella, but when the rain came, it was inevitable that my body would get wet.But although a small half of Jun Qingyan's body was exposed outside the umbrella, there was no trace of getting wet.

Master is very careless, if someone with a heart finds out Master's secret, he will definitely make a big fuss.

"Look at what?" He asked suddenly.

I quickly retracted my gaze and said, "No, it's nothing, Master, let's go in quickly."

After reaching the eaves, I put away the bamboo bone umbrella.Just as I was about to cross the threshold, I suddenly felt a chill run down my spine, as if someone was staring at me coldly not far away.I turned my head and looked, but I didn't see anyone suspicious.

I thought about it, maybe it was just my illusion.

Qiutao brought me clean clothes, but when I got out of the carriage, I accidentally wet my lower clothes.After I changed my clothes, I asked Qiutao to go back to Dongtao's place instead of waiting on me.I used to keep Qiutao by my side, but now I don't trust them anymore.

Zhou Yunyi came over and said a few words to me, I dealt with it and dismissed him.

Not long after Zhou Yunyi left, Jun Qingyan also came over.He was holding a plate in his hand with a small bowl on it, and when he approached us, he smelled ginger soup.He said: "Drink the ginger soup."

I startled slightly.

He said: "You are not in good health, just now it rained again, now drink ginger soup to get rid of the cold."

I bent my eyebrows and smiled: "Okay."

With a bowl of ginger soup in my belly, my body warmed up, and even my heart felt warm and sweet.Just as I was about to say something, another chill ran down my spine suddenly, and I turned my head quickly.

Jun Qingyan asked me: "What's wrong?"

I was puzzled and said: "I always feel that someone is staring at me from behind."

Jun Qingyan looked around and said: "There is no one around, maybe you are tired, you should rest earlier." After hearing Jun Qingyan's words, I also felt relieved.Jun Qingyan is an expert, if he says he doesn't have it, he means he doesn't.

After nightfall, I took off my clothes and lay down on the couch, and took a rest after a while.In the middle of the night, I felt that cold gaze again in a daze. I was awakened with a little sweat on my forehead.

I got out of bed and lit a lamp.

At this time, there was a strange noise outside the window, and I strode to the window, pushed it open suddenly, and shouted: "Who is sneaking around?"

A red shadow flashed past, too fast for people to react.

I was shocked.

A patrolling guard rushed in, I breathed a sigh of relief, and said to them, "It's nothing, it's just a nightmare."

My spirits were not good the next day.

Zhou Yunyi probably heard about what happened last night. When I got into the car, he asked me: "Did the princess have a nightmare last night? Did she not get used to sleeping?"

I shook my head: "I'm fine."

After sitting firmly in the car, Jun Qingyan also asked me: "Did you have a nightmare last night?"

My palms are sweaty.

I nodded vigorously, afraid that Jun Qingyan would not believe me, and even made up a terrible nightmare.After hearing this, Jun Qingyan rarely showed a smile, and said, "It's just a dream, don't worry about it."

"Ah."

I wiped the cold sweat off my forehead without a trace.

Actually, I didn't have a nightmare last night, I just... saw Bai Wan.

Every day after that, I lived in fear, for fear that Bai Wan would suddenly appear in front of Jun Qingyan and tell him that she was Wan'er.I also thought about expressing my heart to Jun Qingyan first, but after much deliberation, I still couldn't say it.

But since that day, Bai Wan never appeared again, and I never felt the cold gaze from behind.

This relieved me a little.

It was already mid-April when I arrived in Cangcheng. Cangcheng is located in the south of Da'an, and the customs and customs are slightly different from the capital city, and the weather is much hotter than the capital city.When I arrived in Cangcheng, I took off my spring shirt and put on a summer silk one.

The news of Princess Mingyu's coming to Cangcheng has already spread, and the place where I stay, the prefect Wei Chuqing of Cangcheng, has already made arrangements.

Only in May will there be a spring of blood to see, and now it is half a month away from May, just in time for me to slowly look for the Chen family.I screened Qiutao and Dongtao away, and I was the only one left in the room.

I took out a palm-sized brocade box with royal blue winter jasmine patterns from the cage, and opened it carefully.

Inside was a very common mahogany hairpin, which was generally woody. Such mahogany hairpins can be seen everywhere in the stalls on the ground in the capital, and you can buy one for two shillings.But such a mahogany hairpin is very important to me at the moment.

Before leaving the capital, I went out once, to the mansion where the former wife Chen lived.

I didn't go there secretly, but I made it clear with Brother Huang that I would go and have a look, and I just wanted to go and have a look for no other reason.Whenever I emphasize that I want to go or what I want to do, Brother Huang will basically agree to me, even if he doesn't agree, he will find ways to make me happy afterwards.

I took Qiutao and Dongtao to look at Chen's mansion for half a day, asked the steward in the mansion, and also asked the maid who used to serve Chen's, and finally got this one to confirm the last person who touched it It is Chen's mahogany hairpin.

Just like looking for the man in black last time, I need Jun Qingyan's Lost Tracking Gu.

Cangcheng is not small, and looking for a woman in the vast sea of ​​people in half a month is no less than looking for a needle in a haystack. Besides, I can't look for it openly, I have to avoid Zhou Yunyi, otherwise the clue will be cut off before I find her.

After I got rid of Qiutao and Dongtao, I went to look for Jun Qingyan with the sapphire brocade box.

I have mentioned it to Jun Qingyan in Che Yu before, and Jun Qingyan has already prepared the Lost Tracking Gu.When I saw the Misty Gu, I felt a little sad in my heart. Since the last time the Misty Gu failed, I have never raised the Misty Gu again. When I wanted to raise the Gu, I would raise the Green Insect Gu. Now I have enough Green Insect Gu Fill a cage.

Xu Shi noticed my expression, Jun Qingyan said: "Don't be discouraged, I will find a solution for you as a teacher, and one day you will be able to raise the Lost Tracking Gu."

I pulled my lips and smiled.

Jun Qingyan asked: "Did you bring the hairpin?"

I nodded, and added: "The guards at the back door were all controlled by Qingworm Gu, Qiu Tao and Dong Tao were also dismissed, and all the hidden guards were eliminated."

Everything was ready, Jun Qingyan and I walked to the back door.

I opened the brocade box, Jun Qingyan released the Lost Tracking Gu, and the two of us cooperated perfectly.The Lost Tracking Gu stayed on the peach wood hairpin, after a while, it spread its wings and flew to the east.

Jun Qingyan stepped forward to follow.

Just as I was about to follow, I noticed the eyes staring at me in the station that night again.I couldn't help being startled, but I didn't turn my head, pretending I didn't feel anything, I strode after Jun Qingyan.

The Lost Tracking Gu didn't fly very fast, it took about an hour before it stopped.

I subconsciously looked at the ground.

Jun Qingyan said, "No one can be buried here."

I coughed and said, "Why did the Lost Tracking Gu stop here?"

Jun Qingyan said: "It hasn't completely stopped yet, it is estimated that Mrs. Chen has been here before, and stayed here for a long time, so the aura is stronger, and the Lost Tracking Gu will be confused."

I looked around, and not far away was the city gate. There were no residents or shops for miles around here, and there was only one teahouse nearby.What is Mrs. Chen doing here?
Just as I thought this way, the Lost Tracking Gu started to move again.

Jun Qingyan pulled me who was in a daze, and I quickly followed after I regained my senses.I kept staring at the Lost Tracking Gu, and when a pedestrian bumped into me by accident, I didn't have time to dodge. Fortunately, Jun Qingyan caught me, otherwise I would definitely fall on my back.

After I stood up, I frowned.

The passerby said in a panic, "Hold... sorry, I was distracted just now, girl, it's my fault..."

He looked at the sapphire brocade box on the ground.

Just now I was bumped so badly that the brocade box in my arms fell to the ground, half of the mahogany hairpin was exposed.As soon as I was about to pick up the brocade box, he picked up the mahogany hairpin, wiped it vigorously with his sleeve, and then smiled brightly at me.

"Girl, wipe it clean."

I froze immediately, presumably the expression on my face at this moment was extremely ugly.Jun Qingyan said: "Leave it alone, go and chase the Lost Tracking Gu."

It's a pity that Cai Cai was delayed for a while, the Misty Tracking Gu has long since disappeared, and the mahogany hairpin was touched by the person just now, and he can no longer use the Misty Tracking Gu.After Jun Qingyan and I came back, the pedestrian disappeared.

I was so angry that my seven orifices were smoking.

Today is really unlucky!The Lost Tracking Gu can no longer be used, now looking for the Chen family is really looking for a needle in a haystack!

"Master, is there any remedy?"

Jun Qingyan sighed: "If you lose the Lost Tracking Gu, there is no way to recover."

I also sighed in disappointment.

At this time Jun Qingyan said again: "But..."

Listening to Master's tone, there seems to be other ways?I was overjoyed and said expectantly: "But what?"

Jun Qingyan said: "Although we lost Mizong Gu, Mizong Gu also told us something." He pointed to the place where we were standing just now, and said: "Mr. Chen often stays there, just pay attention to it." , it is not difficult to find traces of Chen."

My frown relaxed slightly.

I said, "I can only sit back and wait."

Thinking of the pedestrian just now, I said angrily again: "It's all the fault of that pedestrian, it's just a distraction from walking, it's unnecessary."

Jun Qingyan said: "Forget it, Mrs. Chen is still in Cangcheng, at least what Xiaoer said is true."

I said: "That's right." Thinking about the best, at least the clues are still there.As long as you find Mrs. Chen before the people behind the scenes.

After returning to the mansion, I separated from Jun Qingyan.Brother Huang doesn't like me getting close to Jun Qingyan very much. I reckon that Brother Huang knows how I feel about Jun Qingyan. He wants to match me with Zhou Yunyi, so naturally he doesn't want me to get close to Jun Qingyan.

On this trip, if I hadn't sent Qiutao and Dongtao away, as long as Jun Qingyan and I spent more than a stick of incense alone, someone would always disturb me.

So now that I'm back in the mansion, I don't dare to spend more time with Jun Qingyan.

The courtyard where Jun Qingyan lives is also one south and one north from mine, but Zhou Yunyi's courtyard is very close to mine, only about ten steps away.When I went back to my own courtyard, I had to pass Zhou Yunyi's courtyard. Because I ran out sneakily, I didn't dare to pass by the front door openly, so I could only sneak through the back door.

As soon as I returned to my courtyard, Qiutao appeared.

She asked: "Where did the princess go? The servants have been looking for the princess for a long time. The pastries are ready, do you want the princess to eat now?"

I said: "I sat in the garden feeling bored, so I walked for a while. Bring all the pastries, I'm a little hungry." Then, I casually asked: "Has Zhou Yunyi come over?"

When I went out with Jun Qingyan to find the Chen family, I thought I would let Jun Qingyan control Zhou Yunyi, but Zhou Yunyi disappeared early in the morning.

Qiu Tao said: "Returning to the princess, Lord Zhou seems to have met an old friend in Cangcheng, and brought him back half an hour ago, and now he is in Lord Zhou's courtyard."

After hearing that, I breathed a sigh of relief.

There is an old friend pestering him, and he has no time to pester me.

Qiu Tao said again: "My servant took a look at it from a distance. It was a girl's family. She was very good-looking and wore red clothes. But don't worry, the princess. The servant saw that Mr. Zhou didn't have any affection for that girl. Mr. Zhou's heart is on the verge of death." Only the princess."

My heart suddenly tightened.

Good looks, red clothes, and Zhou Yunyi's old friend, who else but Bai Wan?

The gaze I noticed when I was at the back door before was really not my illusion, it really was Bai Wan!
I can't help but feel a little overwhelmed.

Qiutao kept talking good things about Zhou Yunyi in my ear, but I didn't listen to a word.I forced myself to calm down.Suddenly, I thought of something, and I felt chills.

When Jun Qingyan and I were at the back door, we used Lost Tracking Gu, and Bai Wan was there at the time.

Bai Wan is a Gu master, and if my guess is correct, Bai Wan is also the one who ate Lin, and Jun Qingyan used the Lost Tracking Gu, she must know what it is.And the pedestrian who hit me before, I always felt that something was wrong.

The brocade box fell on the ground, shouldn't ordinary people pick up the brocade box and peach wood hairpin together?But he only picked up the mahogany hairpin, and rubbed it vigorously.Besides, Jun Qingyan was walking in front of me at that time, if he was really distracted, he should bump into Jun Qingyan first.

But he bumped into me in the end, and knocked off the brocade box in my arms so accurately.

That pedestrian was clearly aiming at the mahogany hairpin in my arms!
Bai Wan and Zhou Yunyi knew each other, if Bai Wan told Zhou Yunyi that I was looking for someone, and Zhou Yunyi followed the vines to get ahead of me...

I stood up abruptly, startling Qiutao.

"Princess...Princess..."

Dong Tao also said: "Why is the princess's complexion so ugly all of a sudden? But what's wrong? This servant is going to call the imperial physician."

I looked at the two of them, and then at the palace servants standing outside the door, and I sat back in the grand master's chair weakly.It was the first time I realized one thing, although I am the princess of Daan, even though the emperor dotes on me, but at the critical moment, I found that there is no one around me who directly obeys me and is only loyal to me .Now I can't even send someone I trust to guard the tea shop near the city gate, but Zhou Yunyi is different.

The only people I can rely on are myself and Master.

I began to have doubts about what Brother Huang once said, Brother Huang... is he really doing it for me?Or do I have to show my every move in front of the emperor?

"Princess...princess?" Qiu Tao called again.

I stopped Dongtao who was going to call the imperial physician, and said: "No need."

I stood up again and said, "I'm going out for a while."

Qiutao said: "My servant called someone to prepare the car."

I said: "No need, I go out alone, none of you are allowed to follow, the same goes for the hidden guards outside."

"But...but..."

I said sharply: "No, but, are you a princess or this princess now? I can't even go out alone if I want to? Or is it that Bengong has indulged you too much in the past few years? So much so that you have forgotten your identity The duty of a servant?"

After all, I slam the door and leave.

Since I was a child, I have always been easy-going, and I have never said such a thing in such a tone.I will remember what Brother Huang told me. At worst, I will go back to the palace and be punished. No one can take the Chen family away from me now.

I immediately called Shangjun Qingyan.

At this moment, the only person I can rely on, alone and helpless, is Master.

I hastily explained to Jun Qingyan, and also told Jun Qingyan that a female Gu master from Southern Border had appeared, but I didn't tell him that the female Gu master's name was Bai Wan.

After Jun Qingyan heard this, his face became serious.

He said: "Go to the tea shop immediately."

There are many hidden guards following along, but I have no time to take care of them at this time.I have a bad premonition, as long as I take a step slower, I will never be able to see Mrs. Chen again.

After noon, the number of people at the city gate gradually increased.

I stood alone under the big tree, and the light yellow silk clothes on my body were particularly eye-catching.I'm not afraid that others will see through my identity, what I want now is to be conspicuous.

Chen can let Xiao Er find me, he must have something to say to me.

Now that everyone is here, if Mrs. Chen sees me, she will definitely try her best to get close to me.

About the time after touching two sticks of incense, a trembling figure appeared in the place where the Lost Tracking Gu stayed before. She was dressed in tatters, and after looking around nervously, Fang squatted on the ground and took a look from her arms. Take out a rice bowl.

I recognized Mrs. Chen.

Jun Qingyan not far away gave me a look, and I understood immediately.

I walked up to Mrs. Chen and said in a deep voice, "Mrs. Chen, do you know who I am?"

Chen Shi trembled immediately, but her sallow face became excited, the rice bowl fell and shattered to the ground, she tightly grasped my hand, her parched and pale lips trembled: "Grand...princess... ..."

But before she finished speaking, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, her eyes widened.Unknowingly, there was an extra arrow feather on Chen's back, right at the center of the mouth.

I was shocked.

Jun Qingyan strode up to me, at the same time, Zhou Yunyi came on horseback, several guards knelt down in front of me in unison, Zhou Yunyi dismounted and said: "I am late to save you, please forgive me, princess."

Where is the rescue!

I frown coldly, and said angrily: "You..."

Chen's angry voice came: "Yes..." Her lips moved, as if she had said a few words, but I only heard the first word clearly.I didn't care about Zhou Yunyi anymore, and I didn't care about my manners. I lay down on the ground and said, "Say it again? Who is it?"

"Yes……"

The voice stopped abruptly.

As soon as it came into view, Zhou Yunyi's leather boots stepped on Chen Shi's palm, cutting off Chen Shi's last breath.

I glared: "Zhou Yunyi, what are you trying to cover up!"

Zhou Yunyi said: "I am only afraid that the thief will hurt the princess."

He simply has no silver 300 taels here!I sneered and said, "A thief? Master Zhou lied and didn't make a draft? You have met the Chen family, and you clearly know that she is the Chen family! Master Zhou, you killed my son-in-law, right? Wei Qing was just you. The black pot, you are the one behind the scenes. Chen's corpse is the best proof!"

He was silent for a while.

I thought he would argue and explain everything, but he didn't.

He actually admitted it.

"Yes, I killed them all."

I never thought that Zhou Yunyi would be so frank, so that I was stunned for a long time before uttering three words: "Why?"

The city gate is originally a place where people come and go, and now more and more people come here.I gritted my teeth and ordered: "Come here, tie up Zhou Yunyi and take him back."

The surrounding guards hesitated.

I shouted, "What are you doing there?"

Zhou Yunyi smiled softly: "Princess, don't worry. Since Yun Yi has confessed to the princess, she will naturally not run away. But if the princess is worried, then tie Yun Yi up." He nodded to the guard beside him, and the guard He took out the hemp rope and tied Zhou Yunyi.

From the beginning to the end, he looked at me with calm and gentle eyes.He obviously killed so many people, including court officials, but he didn't care at all, as if he just crushed a few ants to death.

After returning to the mansion, I personally interrogated Zhou Yunyi.

I pushed back everyone, leaving Zhou Yunyi alone, the rope on his body was not untied, and now he is kneeling on the ground.I sat on the pear wood chair with a teacup in my hand, and after taking a sip slowly, I carefully looked at Zhou Yunyi in front of me.

I don't know how many noble ladies in Beijing are looking forward to becoming Zhou's wife, but he has never promised anyone, and has always been devoted to his duties. Is there anyone in Beijing who doesn't know Dali Temple Secretary Zhou Yunyi?
I don't understand, extremely puzzled.

Why did he kill my son-in-law?

I put down the teacup, still the same three words: "Why?"

Zhou Yunyi stared at me with tenderness in his pitch-black pupils, and he said, "Princess, does Yun Yi have a wish in his life?"

I sneered and said, "Kill all the consorts of this Palace?"

He shook his head and said, "Yun Yi wants to call the princess Ah Wu."

I couldn't help but startled.

He continued: "The princess saved Yun Yi seven years ago. Yun Yi knew that it was a trivial matter to Princess Yu, but to Yun Yi, it was unforgettable in his life. Since then, Yun Yi has wanted to become famous all over the world. Become a person worthy of the princess as soon as possible. But Yunyi has not yet become famous, but the princess is about to get married. Yunyi can't bear the fact that the princess has any man besides Yunyi, so he tried every means to kill the princess. A son-in-law, every time the princess gets married, Yun Yi is very distressed, and later on in the capital, Princess Kefu is passed on, and Yun Yi knows that no one will dare to marry the princess, except Yun Yi."

... Madman, big madman!
All five son-in-laws died in his hands!

He continued: "Yun Yi was about to marry the princess, and His Majesty agreed to Yun Yi. Unexpectedly, the Chen family and the Su family noticed it and intended to tell the princess the truth. Yun Yi had no choice but to kill again."

I said, "The man in black last time..."

He said: "Yes, that's right. Yun Yi knew when he saw him that if he could solve his words, the matter would be exposed one day, but at that time the princess had already become suspicious, and Yun Yi also knew that if the truth didn't come out, the princess would one day sooner or later." The suspicion came to Yun Yi's head, so Yun Yi arranged a play, step by step to lure the princess to jump down, pretending to let the princess get clues, and then find out Wei Qing."

I was shocked and said: "You also arranged for the thief who snatched my sleeve bag outside the Xinghua Building?"

He nodded: "Mr. Chen asked Xiaoer to find the princess, and Yun Yi used his tricks to lure Wei Qing out. The truth has already been settled, but the princess still doesn't believe in Yun Yi, she still doubts Yun Yi." He sighed: "It was also Yun Yi who was careless. After looking for Xiao Er and Chen Shi for so long, in the end, the princess took the lead."

All of this turned out to be a trap set by Zhou Yunyi.

Presumably the family members of the third son-in-law and the fifth son-in-law wanted to tell me the truth, so they each sent someone to tell me.The third son-in-law's family is the second son of Xinghua Building, and the fifth son-in-law's family is the man in black outside Mingyu Villa.

I finally understood what was wrong with the thief who followed my sleeve back then.Zhou Yunyi killed the man in black. What he heard outside Mingyu Villa was the fifth son-in-law, so the thief he sent only knew about the fifth son-in-law, not the third son-in-law.

It was I who slipped my tongue and brought up the note from the third son-in-law, that's why Zhou Yunyi and the others found out about Mrs. Chen by following the vine, and they went after Xiao Er.

As for the people who know Xiao Er, besides me, there are also my two maidservants.

I couldn't believe it and said: "Qiu Tao is your man?"

Zhou Yunyi smiled slightly, but he did not deny it.

No wonder...

At that time, I felt that Qiutao couldn't be so careless, chasing a thief can also chase the wrong person, so it was intentional, and I just waited for me to chase it myself.I was immediately chilled. Although I was mentally prepared, I still felt a little uncomfortable when I heard it with my own ears.

I ordered Zhou Yunyi to be imprisoned, but Xuequan had no intention of rewarding him, so he set off for the palace the next day after giving the order.For Qiu Tao who betrayed me, after all, I had a master-servant relationship with her for nearly 22 years. I didn't take her life, but sent her directly.

I don't want to see her again in this life.

When I think of the fact that the five sons-in-law died at the hands of Zhou Yunyi for no reason, and also caused me to bear the reputation of Kefu for several years, I can't help but sigh in my heart.

I asked the servants in the mansion to bring me two jars of wine.

I sat at the stone table in the courtyard with the wine jar in my arms, and I didn't want to use the wine glass anymore. As soon as the wine jar was opened, I just held the cow to drink.Huadiao poured down my throat, it was so hot that I almost choked my tears.

Jun Qingyan appeared in front of me at some point, snatched the wine jar from my hand, and blamed him: "What kind of liquor do you guys drink?"

I touched my chest and said, "Master, Ah Wu feels uncomfortable."

Jun Qingyan sat down beside me and said, "The truth has been revealed."

I said: "But Ah Wu still feels uncomfortable. Why did Zhou Yunyi kill so many people for his own selfishness? If he really likes me, why didn't he take the initiative to ask the imperial brother for an order? The third son-in-law came from a poor family, and the imperial brother agreed. Did you get married? With his reputation at the time, as long as he asked, the emperor would definitely agree. But..."

I had a belch, and my nose was a little sore.

"Master, do you know what he said? He said he wanted to stop all men from marrying me. How can there be such crazy people in this world!"

Jun Qingyan sighed: "It's all over, and it won't help if you think about it."

I glanced at the wine jar in Jun Qingyan's arms, Jun Qingyan turned his body and said, "Don't drink any more, I will make you a candy figurine. What kind of candy figurine do you want?"

I asked, "Master, do you have any utensils for making sugar figurines?"

Jun Qingyan said: "No, but you can borrow it. As a teacher, I have already asked someone to borrow it."

From this point of view, Master came prepared.I said: "But Ah Wu doesn't want to eat sugar man now."

Jun Qingyan stared at me: "What do you want to eat?"

I looked at the wine jar again, and he said: "Except for wine, I can satisfy you as a teacher."

I swallowed, staring at his lips.

"really?"

Jun Qingyan said: "Really, when did I lie to you as a teacher?" After a pause, he said: "The pheasant chicken in Cangcheng is extraordinarily sweet, why not..." Before I finished speaking, I had already leaned forward, Kiss his lips.

Before, I always wanted to find a suitable time to express my heart to Jun Qingyan, but I found that the best time is when I am emotional.

His lips moved.

After a while, we let go of him.I lowered my eyes and grabbed the corner of my clothes with my hands, feeling a little shy.

"Master promised Ah Wu, whatever he said would satisfy Ah Wu. Ah Wu didn't want to eat candy man, nor pheasant meat, but only wanted to eat... Master's mouth. Ah Wu's heart is pleased with Master, not the relationship between master and apprentice. It's about love between men and women."

My chest was throbbing and my ears were burning hot.

I am waiting for Jun Qingyan to respond to me.

But I waited for a long time, but I didn't hear Jun Qingyan's response, and my heart suddenly became cold.I raised my head, and when I was about to say something, what caught my eyes was Jun Qingyan's pale complexion, and his lips were bloodless. He was leaning weakly on the stone table, panting heavily.

"Master... Master, what's wrong with you?"

Don't just kiss me, am I so scary?

Jun Qingyan's eyes were closed tightly, as if he couldn't even speak.I was a little flustered and didn't know what to do.Jun Qingyan obviously did this after drinking alcohol, but he didn't drink alcohol or eat meat just now...

Suddenly, I realized something.

No, Jun Qingyan drank the wine from my mouth.

The maidservants and guards in the courtyard have long been shunned by me, and now there is no one in the courtyard to order.The distant water cannot save the near fire, so I had to use all my strength to drag Jun Qingyan into the house.

After he lay on my couch, I wiped the hot sweat from my brow out of breath.

At this time, Jun Qingyan's cheeks were already flushed, and when I touched them, they were astonishingly hot.Fortunately, I have encountered this situation before. I rummaged through boxes and chests to find the flute, and played a Jiangnan minor tune for Jun Qingyan.

After the song was over, the blush on Jun Qingyan's face gradually faded, but he was still very weak.

Jun Qingyan's eyes narrowed a slit, and his lips moved.

I leaned down and asked, "Master, what did you say?"

"cat……"

This time I finally heard clearly, but where can I find a white cat in a while?Just when I was worried, there was a cat meowing, I turned my head in surprise, and it was really a white cat that caught my eyes.

But standing behind Mao'er was a girl I didn't want to see. She was dressed in red and had black hair. It was Bai Wan.

Bai Wan looked at me and said, "Are you looking for the white cat?"

I said stiffly, "No."

Bai Wan knelt down and patted the white cat's head lightly. The white cat rubbed against her palm, as if it connected with her heart, jumped onto the couch with a whimper, and slipped into Jun Qingyan's arms.

Although Jun Qingyan was in a coma, his body subconsciously hugged the white cat tightly, and his frown that had been tightly frowned before gradually relaxed.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and turned back to look at Bai Wan.

I said, "What do you want to do?"

Bai Wan said, "Let's talk about it."

Bai Wan and I walked out of the house, and stopped at the stone table where I was talking and drinking with Jun Qingyan just now.At this time, the night was deep, and there were cicadas chirping from time to time on the tree. Bai Wan stood under the tree, looking at me with burning eyes.

I don't know what Bai Wan wants to talk to me about, if she wants to harm me...

I looked around without a trace.

Bai Wan said: "The hidden guards nearby have been controlled by me. But you can rest assured, I just have something to tell you."

I said: "Why do you keep following me? You have been following me since you left the capital, right? You told Zhou Yunyi that I was looking for someone, didn't you?"

She didn't deny it, but said: "I know everything you have done these days, including the confession you made to him just now."

As soon as I heard it, my ears started to feel hot again.

"You..." I was about to stare angrily, but suddenly realized something, I narrowed my eyes and said, "You knew I was lying to you, didn't you?"

Bai Wan said casually: "I want to look for Jun Qingyan, since I'm here in the capital, why don't I inquire about it? How can I not know that Princess Mingyu recognizes Jun Qingyan as her teacher? I can also see that you are pleased with him He, I just wanted to see you rejected by him from the beginning to the end."

My heart tightened.

"Master will not reject me, he also has me in his heart."

Bai Wan snorted softly, and said: "He told you, right? You and Wan'er are very similar, and you have Wan'er's aura on you. If you don't have Wan'er's aura on you, do you think he would still be like this? Treat you? He has always regarded you as Wan'er's substitute."

So, Bai Wan is not Wan'er?
I frowned slightly, and said with a sneer: "Don't come here to provoke dissension, you can see that I am fond of him, and you pretend that I can't see that you are also fond of him? I also know that you are also the one who ate the scorpion, Like Master, I don't know how many years you have lived, but after all these years, Master has no interest in you, no matter how hard you stalk, you can't win my position in Master's heart."

Seeing Bai Wan's complexion change, I snorted in satisfaction.No matter what you say, you can't lose your momentum.I said again: "It doesn't matter whether the master treats me well because I look like Wan'er or because I have Wan'er's aura in me, he still treats me well anyway, this time it's because of me that he followed me all the way to Cangcheng. "

Bai Wan stared at me, for a long while, she showed a clear expression, and she said: "You never have a bottom in your heart."

I raised my chin and said, "No matter how important Wan'er is in Master's heart, one day I, Rong Wu, will completely occupy Master's heart."

Bai Wan said disdainfully: "You should give up your heart. I have followed him for so many years, and he and Wan'er have experienced so much. He has always only had Wan'er in his eyes."

When I heard this, I was taken aback, and said, "Wan'er...she also ate the bacon?"

If Wan'er really ate Zhelin, wouldn't she be like Jun Qingyan, immortal for ten thousand years, and already out of the body of a mortal.So... Who else in this world can be more right than the two of them?
"Is it so easy for you to become a baelin?" Bai Wan said, "You haven't lived for a long time. You must not know that there was a legend about a "Jade Man" a long time ago."

I was slightly startled: "Jade man? What is a jade man?"

Bai Wan said: "There is a kind of person in this world that is extremely rare, that is, jade people. Such people are even rarer than Zhelin. If it is said that Zoulin only raises one in a thousand years, it is difficult for a jade person to be born in ten thousand years."

"The jade man is a bug?"

Bai Wan glanced at me and said, "It's a human being. The appearance of a jade woman is the same as that of ordinary people, but once she reaches the age of 25, her limbs will become stiff and her limbs will become stiff, and she will turn into jade in just a few days. Its bones are ground into powder, dissolved in water and added to ink, and a wish can be fulfilled after being written down."

At this... at this time, there are still such people?
I was surprised and said: "What does that have to do with Master?"

Bai Wan said: "He was just an ordinary person when he hadn't eaten the linden. He knew the legend of the jade man, and he worked hard to find the jade man, and put him in a loving care. He wanted to wait until the jade man turned into jade at 25 o'clock to make a wish Unexpectedly, he fell in love with the jade man. When the jade man reaches the age of 25, he will definitely die. He, for the sake of the jade man, eats the scorpion. Every time the jade man reaches the age of 25, he personally grinds his bones to let the jade man rest Resurrected again and again."

I suddenly remembered what Jun Qingyan said.

He said he had raised a baby girl.

My heart trembled, and I said, "Wan'er...is she a jade man?"

Bai Wan nodded.

I asked: "Then... now the jade man is gone?"

Bai Wan said: "Yes, I haven't seen you for more than 20 years. Jun Qingyan has been looking for it for a long time. If you haven't found it before the jade man turns into jade, Jun Qingyan will never have a chance with Wan'er again."

She added: "Although I don't know why you have Wan'er's aura, you are not Wan'er, maybe you can find Wan'er through you, which is why Jun Qingyan stays by my side."

I said in a daze, "Why did you tell me this?"

She said: "The two of us are just sympathetic to each other. Jun Qingyan has always only had Wan'er in his eyes. I have worked so hard for so many years, and he doesn't even know who I am."

I gritted my teeth and said, "I don't believe it."

Bai Wan said, "It's up to you to believe it or not, that's all I've said."

After Bai Wan left, my mind was full of Yuren and Wan'er.If what Bai Wan said is true, Jun Qingyan has really been so stubbornly looking for Wan'er for more than 20 years, and waited for her to grow up again and again in order to stay with her forever, and then in Wan'er's best years He buried her with his own hands, year after year, day after day, for the sake of being together for a short time.

So... so... what should I do?
There are so many 25 years between Jun Qingyan and Wan'er, but there are only a few short years between me and Master, how can I compare with Wan'er like this?
But there was a voice in my heart that said quietly: "Maybe what Bai Wan said is all false? She is just jealous of me, so she made up such a bizarre story to deceive me..."

I pursed my lips.

I didn't close my eyes all night and sat in the courtyard all night.Until it was almost dawn, we called someone to fetch water, and after washing our face, we went into the house.Jun Qingyan had already woken up. When I entered, he had just sat up from the couch. The white cat in his arms was still asleep, its ears were moving, and it looked really cute.

I thought about it all night last night, and after thinking about it, I always felt that escaping is not the way to go, I have to ask Qingjun Qingyan.

I, Rong Wu, am a person with integrity, Jun Qingyan treats me well only because I am Rong Wu, not because I have the aura of Wan'er in me.I said, "Master is awake? Do you remember what happened last night?"

He frowned and said, "Mingyu, you..."

I said: "Seeing Master like this, I think I remember it."

I cut to the chase and said, "Master approached Ah Wu first, because Ah Wu has Wan'er's aura?"

"you……"

I said: "Master just needs to answer Ah Wu yes or no."

He said, "Yes."

I felt a little pain in my heart, and I asked again: "Master treats me so well, making sweets for Ah Wu, worrying about Ah Wu, and even eating for me because I have the smell of Wan'er on me? No matter what Master does to me, Is it all because of Wan Er?"

Jun Qingyan asked: "Who did you hear what? Is it the female Gu master?"

I said, "Master just needs to tell Ah Wu, is that right or not?"

"……Yes."

I couldn't stop the pain in my heart.Bai Wan didn't lie to me, what she said was true.It turned out that it was just my own self-indulgence from beginning to end.I held back the tears that were about to fall, and said calmly: "Thank you, Master, for telling me."
