Lanke Chess Edge

At this moment, the door of Xiao's guest room was closed, only Xiao's father and son and Du Changsheng were inside, while Xiao Du and Xiao Ling slowly explained the matter.

"During the founding of this dynasty, was it the ancestors of your Xiao family who killed the heroes?"

Du Changsheng was a little surprised when he heard this. It's not that the history of killing people has never been circulated to the outside world. It's just that those who were killed had corresponding "crimes", but those who have the wisdom to know right from wrong know what's going on. However, Du Changsheng was a little surprised that the Xiao family was the sword of the emperor.

"The national teacher should refrain from saying this outside..."

"Of course I know, what happens next?"

Xiao Du eased his emotions before continuing.

"Actually Xiao didn't know much about what happened after that, but the dream a while ago made us understand something..."

Following Xiao Du's narration, Du Changsheng's demeanor became more and more wrong the more he listened, and when Xiao Du finished speaking, Du Changsheng already had goosebumps and looked at Xiao Du with disbelief.

"You, your ancestors actually put the candles from the house of the condemned minister on the Chunmu River... This breaks the path of people's practice, breaks the foundation of people's enlightenment! And this monster is still alive..."

Du Changsheng took a deep breath. This happened almost two hundred years ago. If Xiao Du's description is true, the monster's ability was not small two hundred years ago. Now that the monster is still alive, I don't know how powerful it is. .

"call……"

After a long time, Du Changsheng exhaled and looked at Xiao Ling.

"Then what about you, why did you offend Lady Ying?"

Xiao Ling also had nothing to hide, so he directly told the events of that year in detail.

"It's a long story, but it starts when I fell in love with Wan'er bitterly..."

When Xiao Ling mentioned that Ying Ruoli came to the door, and there was a gentleman surnamed Ji with him, Du Changsheng immediately interrupted in shock.

"Wait! Mr. Xiao, you said that there was a gentleman surnamed Ji who came here together?"

"Yes, apart from being curious about the matter between Wan'er and me, that gentleman is mainly because of the woman who gave me the spell. It seems that the other party escaped from him. Judging from the reactions of Ying Niangniang and the other man, the woman who escaped He is a great demon, by the way, Mrs. Ying and that man called Mr. Ji 'Uncle'."

Du Changsheng was breathing tremblingly, he felt that he seemed to know some of Mr. Ji's secrets, he was a little excited and a little apprehensive, then he suddenly thought of something, looked at Xiao Ling with a serious expression and said.

"The woman who gave you the evil spell, did you give you anything else, or made any promises, or cast some spells that made you uncomfortable, or..."

Speaking of this, Du Changsheng suddenly stopped talking. He originally thought that he could escape from Mr. Ji. Empress He Ying has come to see it in person, if there is something wrong, can she not see it?

"Uh, national teacher, that evil girl..."

"You can't wait to know too much about this matter. You only need to know that Mr. Xiao and your Xiao family, and even don't know how many people have walked through the gate of hell because of this matter. If you don't meet an expert... Forget it, this matter You don't need to know too much... well, this matter still needs to be kept secret, don't tell anyone!"

"Yes!" "Xiao knows!"

Du Changsheng calmed down his emotions, looked at Xiao Ling carefully again, and felt a little strange in his heart, since Xiao Ling was able to keep this secret for so many years without even telling his father, it is logical that he is not a person who would break any promise.

"Young Master Xiao, besides what happened just now, do you have any additional agreement with Lady Ying?"

Xiao Ling thought about it for a long time, but still shook his head.

"There should be none."

"That's weird..."

Du Changsheng pondered for a while, then stood up straight away.

"Du also knows about this matter. I need to go back and think about it. I will use the altar to figure out how to solve this matter. It's not too late. Du will leave today. It's best for the two of you not to go out frequently recently!"

"Master, let's go now, I will see you off!"

Du Changsheng opened the door of the living room by himself, stood outside and cupped his hands facing the inside.

"No need, Du Mou left by himself, let alone traveling, and will come back when we have news."

Du Changsheng didn't have the intention to stay in the Xiao's house for a long time, so he left the Xiao's house without saying a word, then entered the crowd on the street outside, managed to get away with a trick to prevent anyone from following him, and then went straight to the Yin's house.

As soon as he approached Yin's mansion, Du Changsheng's own blindness started to become unstable. Du Changsheng just walked to an alley, and before he even stepped on the road, he hadn't realized it yet. He was taken aback.

"Hao Ran's righteousness is really strong. If Xiao Yin puts aside his suspicions for a long time, as long as he stays with Yin Xiang, no evil spirits may dare to seek revenge, and any gods will have to sell Yin Xiang some face!"

But this is just thinking about it, Du Changsheng threw away his thoughts, and walked directly to Yin's residence. He now has a high reputation in Yin's residence, so he entered the residence without hindrance, and came to Ji Yuan's courtyard.

This time, Ji Yuan had already woken up. When Du Changsheng arrived, he saw Ji Yuan playing with the chessboard alone in the courtyard, so he respectfully saluted outside the arch.

"Du Changsheng pays respects to Mr. Ji!"

"Good morning Du Tianshi, oh, it's time for Ji to change his name to be a national teacher, congratulations."

Du Changsheng smiled shyly.

"Whether Mr. Ji said anything, I, Du Changsheng, would not be where I am today without my teacher's advice and instructions."

While talking, Du Changsheng walked into the courtyard, came to the stone table, glanced carefully at the chess game on the table, but didn't see anything special, seeing that Ji Yuan didn't speak, he lowered his voice and whispered.

"Mr. Ji, I went to the home of Mr. Xiao, the imperial historian..."

Du Changsheng told Ji Yuan unreservedly what he heard and saw. Ji Yuan didn't have much reaction, but just listened quietly without interrupting. Said thoughtfully.

"So Xiao Ling is sterile now?"

"Exactly, I heard that the young master of the Xiao family has married multiple concubines, and recently he plans to marry another concubine. When many wives failed to give birth to children, Du just took a look and realized that this might be the concubine of Tongtianjiang Ying." s method."

"Um."

Ji Yuan nodded, and dropped the chess piece in his hand on the chessboard. After waiting for a long time without seeing him speak, Du Changsheng couldn't help asking again.

"Mr. Ji, should I take care of this matter or not?"

Ji Yuan looked up at him.

"Are you referring to the old grievances between the Xiao family and the old turtle, or Tongtian Jiangying's punishment of Xiao Ling?"

"Uh, both of them... Please enlighten me, sir!"

Ji Yuan put down a chess piece again, glanced at the chessboard, stood up, and took the chessboard away with a lift of his sleeves.

"How about this, since you have met the Xiao family, you should also meet the other two parties, so that you can make your own judgment, whether it will be successful or not depends entirely on you."

"The other two parties?"

Du Changsheng was slightly taken aback, and before he could ask any more questions, he saw that Ji Yuan was already walking towards the outside of the courtyard, so he had no choice but to follow up quickly. After leaving the Yin Mansion, his pace was slow but fast, and he walked through the streets and alleys and finally left the city. They arrived at a remote place by the Tongtian River.

In front of him was the vast Tongtian River, and the rolling river was flowing, which made people feel a sense of openness, but this did not include Du Changsheng, because he thought of who he would meet.

At this moment, in Ji Yuan's arms, a small paper crane squeezed out of the kit, then spread its wings, flew around Ji Yuan a few times, and got into the Tongtian River with the master's nod.

Ji Yuan looked at Jiang's face, as if he was thinking about something, but Du Changsheng didn't dare to disturb him, and stood aside without saying a word.

About half an hour later, there was splashing water on the surface of the river, and a huge old turtle broke through the waves and swam towards the shore. Du Changsheng became a little nervous, but what surprised him was that it was not the fiery monster in his imagination. , Although this old turtle has a strong demonic aura, it is not evil.

The old turtle went to the river, stood up on the waves, and bowed his hands to Ji Yuan.

"Wu Worship met Mr. Ji! I met Master Dazhen!"

Du Changsheng hurriedly returned the gift, and asked in a surprised voice.

"You, you know me?"

The old turtle smiled.

"Hehehe, old turtle, I am good at divination and calculation, and I can know some trivial things. I even knew the national teacher in Chunhui Mansion."

As soon as the old turtle finished speaking, the water waves on the river suddenly spread out from left to right, and a wave of water appeared carrying a beautifully dressed woman with a floating streamer. It was Ying Ruoli who had just returned to Tongtian River.

"Ruoli met Uncle Ji."

Ying Ruoli only saluted to Ji Yuan, but only nodded to Laogui and Du Changsheng. Even so, the latter two were a little flattered, and hurriedly saluted the Tongtian Jiangjiang God.

Of course, Ji Yuan first satisfied his curiosity and asked Ying Ruoli directly.

"Xiao Ling's infertility is your trick?"

Ying Ruoli was taken aback when she heard the words, then Ying Ruoli counted her fingers and suddenly smiled.

"Well, it can be regarded as Ruo Li's hand. The four-bedroom concubine's room is hard enough. It's good that the Xiao family is unprecedented..."

Originally, Ying Ruoli didn't bother to say anything, but because Ji Yuan asked, she explained to Ji Yuan.

"Uncle Ji, seeing that the woman surnamed Xiao and the woman surnamed Duan looked more affectionate than Jin Jian in front of me back then, Ruo Li let him go, but the promises of ordinary people are sometimes untrustworthy, so she also kept a hand , Ruoli doesn't care how many difficulties he has, he was in a hurry to marry a concubine before his vitality recovered, and now he wants to add another house, Uncle Ji, do you think this counts as Ruoli hurting him?"

Hearing Ying Ruoli's words, Ji Yuan seemed to think that someone in Ji was here to speak for Xiao Ling, so he hurriedly separated the relationship.

"Of course it's not that you're harming him, and Ji doesn't have much interest in it. This time, he just brought this national teacher here. Du Guoshi, the two righteous masters have arrived, you can talk to them yourself."

After Ji Yuan finished speaking, he walked to the side, flicked his sleeves and released the chessboard again. This time there was an extra table, and began to continue the previous self-playing stage, showing an attitude of not getting involved.

I? Talk to them yourself? Du Changsheng subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and glanced at the kind old turtle. As for Empress Jiang Shen, who had a smile on her face, he, Du Changsheng, didn't remember anything about Xiao Ling.
