Chapter 15

"Don't the king of Dongyang have to entertain the guests in front of him?" Bu Qingyi was calm and calm.

"It's enough to have a distant book to greet things on the scene." Pei Zan walked slowly into the pavilion, passed Bu Qingyi, and stood facing the lake. He was a little silent, and when he opened his mouth, he had a taste of vicissitudes: "some words, I always don't know how to open my mouth. The purpose of inviting the princess here is to break the deadlock. "

Bu Qingyi didn't respond rashly. She stood quietly behind Pei Zan, and the short sword in her sleeve was ready to go.

"Ningxiang Lou Yuanshu had a dispute with the princess. Although Mo GUI and Yuanshu never mentioned it, I learned about it from other people, so I felt more hopeful and felt that the princess was the one I had been looking for." Pei Zan turned around slowly and looked at Bu Qingyi. His eyes were red, and he seemed to be so excited that he was about to cry.

Bu Qingyi shrugged: "if I knew that was the little prince of Dongyang king, I would not do anything."

"No, no, it's the right move, so I can guess..." Pei Zan became more and more excited, and his voice trembled. "You are Qingyan, aren't you?"

The fingertip hidden in the sleeve moved, but the dagger didn't move.

Pei Zan's performance is different from Bu Qingyi's expectation. His expression is not fear and tension, but emotion. It's not like a traitor's expression.

When Bu Qingyi hesitated, the excitement in Pei Zan's eyes had turned into tears. He has clearly identified Bu Qingyi as Qingyan of that year, with long sleeves covering his face and sobbing.

"Thirteen years. Thirteen years have passed since that day. Do you know how I survived the past ten years? During the day, I have to hold on and try my best to live in this dark capital, just to protect the remaining children in the pavilion. I always wake up at night by nightmares, dreaming of that day I was helpless that day. From the accident to now, I have not a day without the charge of disbanding Luan Xue Ge, and even have to endure the suspicion of many people. Nevertheless, I'll try my best to find you and the Lord of the Pavilion... "

Bu Qingyi's heart was shocked and he blurted out: "is the Lord still alive?"

"I'm not sure whether I'm here or not, but I don't want to admit that the Lord has died after I haven't seen his body for a day." Pei Zan sobbed a few times and wiped his tears. "At that time, I was waiting for the victory of the cabinet leader in the pavilion, but I didn't expect to wait for the news that you were ambushed on the way. Later, the LORD came back with a blood letter, saying that he couldn't show up because he was betrayed by a traitor. He also said that girl Bu was seriously injured and frozen in the cold cave Since then, I have been looking for you and the Lord, but he has not heard from me

Pei Zan also said many words of remorse, but bu Qingyi didn't listen to them.

Gu Chaoxi did not die in the rebellion, he may still live in a corner of the world. The news made her feel sad and happy for a moment, and she didn't have the heart to think about other things - he may still be alive, which is naturally the best news; but if there is no news for many years, does it mean that he is not in good condition? Is he so badly hurt that he can't even go back to luanshuege?

Bu Qingyi, who is determined to take revenge, thought that after a long period of ice, she had developed a heart of stone. But unexpectedly, just a little clue about Gu Chaoxi made her in a mess.

The man who once represented her is still her.

It took a long time for bu Qingyi to calm down. He asked: "do you have any other clues about the whereabouts of the cabinet leader? Who betrayed the cabinet leader in those years? Can we trace it? Why did vice president Pei dissolve Luan Xue Ge and go to the imperial court? "

"I've never given up looking for the owner of the pavilion these years, but there is a vast sea of people, and then there is no news. I really can't help it." Pei Zan sighed and looked sad. "Girl Bu knows better than anyone that Luan Xue Pavilion is built on the bones. In the past, all the sects did not dare to be enemies with Luan Xue Pavilion because they were afraid of the leader of the pavilion. After the leader of the pavilion disappeared, those sects who hated Luan Xue Pavilion came to seek revenge one after another. Our children were badly injured. I had no choice but to take refuge in the imperial court. The Lord is gone. At least I have to keep those children who follow us

Bu Qingyi frowned slightly: "after the accident, are you the only one busy? What about vice master Mo? "

"Mo Changting? He... " As if he had been touched by the pain, Pei Zan gasped for breath and continued for a long time, "girl Bu asked me if I had found the traitor. Mo Changting is my answer."

This day, bu Qingyi was shocked for the second time.

Is mo Changting the traitor who betrays Gu Chaoxi? How is that possible?!

Under Gu Chaoxi, there are two vice cabinet leaders, one is Pei Zan, the other is mo Changting. Pei Zan is many years older than Gu Chaoxi, and has always been respected as an elder. Mo Changting is similar to Gu Chaoxi in age, and they are quite similar in temperament. However, Mo Changting got married earlier, lost his pursuit of fame and wealth, and devoted himself to helping Gu Chaoxi manage the affairs in the cabinet.

It can be said that Gu Chaoxi, who is always suspicious, has only two people who believe in him. Bu Qingyi is one of them, and then Mo Changting. Because of this relationship, Mo Changting is the only one in charge of luanxuege that Bu Qingyi has ever met. Mo Changting is responsible for not only the affairs in the pavilion, but also Gu's daily life. He has never made any mistakes in more than ten years.How can such a man who is commensurate with Gu Chaoxi's brother be the real murderer of betraying him?

"I don't know what kind of grudge there is between the pavilion leader and Mo Changting until now. After the disappearance of the cabinet leader, I spent half a year investigating the children in the cabinet one by one. One of the traitors was guilty and worried that the cabinet leader would retaliate when he came back, so he told me the whole story of Mo Changting's conspiracy. Seriously, it's hard for me to accept the result. I always feel that I always feel that the pavilion owner's affection for Mo Changting is much better than that for other people. "

Pei Zan sighed repeatedly, as if he had forgotten that there was Bu Qingyi beside him. He looked at the lake and whispered to himself. Bu Qingyi did not interrupt him, just stood in the cold wind in the evening, like a white jade statue.

"After learning the truth, I immediately took people to catch Mo Changting. Maybe he knew that he would die. Before we came to his house, he set the house on fire and burned it alive with his wife. When he died, why he betrayed the leader of the cabinet? If there was anyone else behind the scenes, everything would be buried under the Loess with him, and no one would know. I lost the pavilion leader and a deputy leader in just half a year, and I couldn't support the snow Pavilion alone, so I...... "

Speaking of later, Pei Zan couldn't go on any more, leaving a sigh in the wind, blowing away and dissipating.

Bu Qingyi pondered over the process he narrated, but did not find any loopholes. However, she still had some reservation, did not completely believe what Pei Zan said, just temporarily put away the dagger and killing intention.

The family's words are not enough to be based on. She has to trace them in person.

"I've been working really hard these years, Mr. Pei." The dynasty Pei Zan slightly a jaw head, the step green dress pretends to trust, "say, since the Pei vice Lord suspects that the green jade princess that marries is me, how don't directly come to me to explain? I had a misunderstanding before. I almost thought that vice Lord Pei was the one who betrayed the Lord. "

Pei Zan shook his head and wry smile: "few people know about the fact that girl Bu is not dead. I don't dare to contact them rashly. First, I'm afraid that I'll recognize the wrong person in case I get wind of it or it's bad for Miss bu. Second, I'm afraid that Miss Bu might suspect me. If she takes the initiative, it might lead to misunderstanding. Girl Bu, you are the closest person to the Lord. I didn't protect the Lord well in those days. Now you must not be in danger. So, please understand my concealment. "

Well said, I don't know if I really think so.

"I know everything. I have to go back and think about some details. I won't disturb you today." When it was dark, bu Qingyi got up to say goodbye and pretended to be casual. "By the way, how come I didn't see my son at the banquet? These days, he always comes to contact me on behalf of Mr. Pei, and he becomes more familiar with me. "

Pei Zan's face was slightly stiff, and he immediately said, "let me send him to the ancestral hall to copy the Scriptures. I really don't understand what he thinks about Mogui. It seems that he doesn't like me as a father. I want to cultivate, so I'm more strict with him, but he is always willful and does not listen to orders, and he has no reason to guess that I'm partial to books. I'm really worried about what he'll do one day. "

Bu Qingyi smiles faintly and leaves the waterside pavilion with a slight snowflake.

Full of guilt and loyalty, the deputy leader of luanxuege and the suspicious, jealous and self playful son?

Or the crafty, good at acting Dongyang king and see through the truth, the heart of the opposite son?

Can the truth in Pei Zan's mouth and Pei Mo's return of the secret that he didn't have time to tell correspond to it?

After Pei Zan showed her loyalty, bu Qingyi's doubts did not decrease, but increased. She needed more clues to judge who she could believe and who was the one who disturbed the muddy water to hide the truth.

Now that the goal has been achieved, it is meaningless to continue to stay in Guangling palace. Bu Qingyi did not return to the banquet, but left the palace.

When he returned along the original road, he passed the remote courtyard where he talked with PEI Mogui during the day. Standing at the door for a moment, bu Qingyi saw the snowflakes filling and smoothing the traces on the snow, as if nothing had happened.

She was stunned and turned to leave.

Even though he has been wandering in the rivers and lakes for many years, bu Qingyi is a commoner cloth clothes after all, and he doesn't know much about Zhumen deep house. Therefore, she did not find anything wrong with the water tank in the corner at the other end of the yard. Naturally, she would not find that there was a secret door on the ground behind the water tank, which led to the secret room below 10 feet through the deep corridor.

The secret room was empty and cold. It was lit by only a dozen candlesticks. The puddle, which occupied more than half of the secret room, reflected the dim yellow candle light. It felt like a nightmare. In the middle of the puddle stands a cross shaped iron wood. A ragged man is fixed on the iron wood. His wrist bound by shackles is festering and stinking. It is obvious that he has been bound for a long time.

On the edge of the puddle, the black figure stood silent, and a thin silver needle between his fingers covered with cold awn.

The only prisoner in the water prison raised his head slightly, but his voice was hoarse but indifferent: "I haven't seen him for a while, Mo GUI."

Pei Mogui gave a sound and stepped into the water, slowly approaching the prisoner who was enveloped in darkness.

"Today, bu Qingyi came and talked to me in the upper yard. It's a pity she didn't find you here - no wonder she, who would have thought of it? The man imprisoned in the dark water prison is mo Changting, the deputy leader of Luan Xue Pavilion who is said to have died. "
