"Yun Mo, you're finally out? "You …" Following the blinding sunlight, the last stone door was opened. Lu Sobbing's voice rang out, but when the owner of the voice saw Zhao Qingyan, he was stunned as if he had seen a ghost.

Zhao Qingyan placed Tao Zhe on the ground and raised a hand to shield his eyes, "Who tore down this pavilion?"

Tao Zhe just lay there on the ground, not moving at all. The crowd, who had not seen the light for many days and were extremely tired, immediately laid down on the ground after walking out of the dark tunnel, covering their eyes to bask in the sun. Even Prince Huan ignored his image and walked a few steps away before lying down on his back with a big yawn.

Lu Sobbing rubbed his nose. "I heard you were only taken away after the Ming palace was cleaned. Didn't you realize the pavilion had been demolished?"

Zhao Qingyan wiped her tears away with the back of her hand and mumbled, "I didn't notice. I was unconscious when Tang Xiao took me away, and I didn't see it. "

Lu Sobbing saw him blacking out his originally clean face, and couldn't help but laugh. "How did you do that? I'm covered in mud. " He handed him a handkerchief. "Wipe your face. If you continue to rub your face with that hand of yours, your entire face will be smeared black."

Zhao Qingyan took his hand off his face and did not take the handkerchief. "Forget it. I'll go take a shower and change my clothes. We'll talk later if there's anything to say. "

Lu Sobbing looked at the people on the ground, then asked with a low voice, "Then should I call some people to come and rescue them?"

Zhao Qingyan said, "Then I'll leave it to you. I'll be leaving first." He didn't want to wait any longer and prepared to leave.

Weeping Lu replied, "Yes, I'll come find you in a while."

"Yun Mo, can I go in?" Lu Sobbing lightly knocked on the door twice. Although the door was slightly ajar, she still asked about it.

"Go on in."

Lu Sobbing pushed the door open and walked in. Only after looking around did she see Zhao Qingyan, who had a worried expression on his face. She smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhao Qingyan pointed at the medicine on the table and said with a bitter face, "Tang Xiao Ai has reduced my dose again. It's twenty percent less than before."

Lu Sobbing was stunned for a moment. "What do you mean?"

Zhao Qingyan said, "Maybe it's because of the turmoil in my heart recently, but Zhu Yan's poison is stronger now. Tang Xiao wouldn't let me use so many drugs. Otherwise the next time I get a disease, it'll be even worse."

Lu Sobbing forced a laugh. "That's why I said I should take it out to recuperate."

Zhao Qingyan pouted. "No."

Lu Sobbing laughed and asked, "How come there isn't any?"

Zhao Qingyan shifted his gaze away from the bottle and looked at Lu Sobbing, "How is the Light Wind Palace?" Seeing that the other party was about to sit down, Zhang Xuan pointed to another table not too far away. "I've brewed some tea. Can I help you with that?"

Lu Sobbing went to give Zhao Qingyan the teapot and the teacup by the teapot. She then found a cup for herself and sat down opposite Zhao Qingyan, smelling the tea floating in the air. Didn't you say that you don't drink green tea? "

Zhao Qingyan said, "These are the best tea leaves in this inn and I didn't bring them myself." He reached for the teapot, poured two cups, and picked up one for himself.

Lu Sobbing took a sip, looked at Zhao Qingyan who was gulping down water, and laughed: "Why are you drinking so fast? Are you getting nervous again? "

Zhao Qingyan smiled and said, "No, I'm just a little thirsty after taking a bath."

Lu Sobbing looked at his obviously flushed cheeks, and couldn't help but laugh. "It seems that it's a wise decision for me to wait two hours before coming back. If I come early, I'm afraid you won't have finished bathing."

Zhao Qingyan touched his face that was in pain and said with a wry smile, "You're too ruthless. The skin on your arm is all torn."

Lu Sobbing gloated and laughed, "That's why cleanliness is a serious disease. You have to treat it properly."

Zhao Qingyan decisively ignored his words and naturally asked about something else: "How is the situation with the Qingfeng Palace? Is there any problem? "

Lu Sobbing frowned, but stopped joking around. "I wanted to ask you just now, but you made me hold back again. I only went to the Light Wind Palace a long time after you left the capital. Based on my calculations, you should have already been in the Vermillion Bird Palace by then. How did you know I went to the Light Wind Palace? "

Zhao Qingyan sighed, "Do you even need to ask? Tang Xiao, of course, told me.

"Tang Xiao Ai?" Lu Sobbing thought back to the few people that had followed them far behind on their way down to the Light Wind Palace. "So it was him."

Zhao Qingyan said, "That might not be the case. Maybe you don't cry?"

Lu Sobbing's face froze for a moment, and she decisively changed the topic, "Jiang Wuyan is also in the Light Wind Palace. I told them about what happened this time. Jiang Wuyan also sent a letter to Bewitching Butterfly Town. There shouldn't be any danger." He took out the piece of paper that he had shown to Jiang Wuyan and Ran Xingchen from his bosom and handed it over to Zhao Qingyan.

"To make an example out of everyone, to cut the grass at the root …" Zhao Qingyan held the paper in his hand and read it over and over again, muttering to himself, "Besides crying and Tang Xiao Ai, the forces of the Dark and Light Palaces are actually equal. Even if Luo Changxiu can defeat the Dark Palace, he is not a disciple of the Dark Palace. He was glad that he was able to stabilize the position of the Dark Palace under such a situation. Would he really be so stupid as to give such an order to the Division? "

"If he dares to threaten and frame you, what else wouldn't he dare to do?"

Zhao Qingyan came back to her senses. "Me? So what if he threatened to frame me? I couldn't come up with anything to prove he was involved. If I hadn't known of Luo Xiuxiu's plans from Tang Xiao, I could have endured it, couldn't I? "

Lu Sobbing smiled and said, "Yunmo, I don't think you need to think that way about Director Luo. As far as I know of him, he has a little bit of intelligence, but he stubbornly wants to fight for things that are beyond his ability. At the end of the day, he was just a proud, reckless person with a high eye. It's fine if you're my third brother, but how can someone like Tang Xiao be measured by common sense? You're half of Tang Xiao's disciple, aren't you afraid Tang Xiao would go back on his word? Didn't that mean he'd chosen to work with Tang Xiao and his imbecile friends? "

Zhao Qingyan pointed to the paper on the table. "First of all, you can't be sure who this order is directed at. Secondly, even if they were really targeting me, I don't think that he would dare. "

"What if it's that guy's idea?" Tears Lu asked.

Zhao Qingyan pursed her lips and then slowly said, "She doesn't dare either. The Puppet Palace was a martial arts sect, and it was also a sect that could not be easily eliminated. To work with the Puppet Palace, that was the same as asking a tiger for its skin. It was very likely that Luo Changxiu did not know the identity of that 'person', but it might not be the case if he did it again. I do not doubt that she will continue to target me, but she will definitely not cooperate with the Puppet Palace again. "

Weeping Lu asked, "Are you sure?"

Zhao Qingyan nodded. "I'm sure."

Lu Sobbing took a deep breath, raised her hand and said, "Don't say anything for now. Let me tidy up a bit."

Zhao Qingyan shrugged to show that he could do as he pleased and then poured himself a glass of water to drink.

Lu Sobbing asked, "Do you mean that Luo Changxiu has other intentions for this order?"

Zhao Qingyan said lightly, "That might not be the case. "Maybe what you're holding is not an order from the Ming Palace at all, but from some important division?"

Lu Sobbing asked, "That is to say, no matter what this piece of paper represents, as long as we can confirm that Luo Changxiu is dead, there will be three results." First, Luo Changxiu's order against you was cancelled after his death. Secondly, Luo Changxiu had no idea who the target of his plan would be. Third, this wasn't an order from the head of the Ming Palace, but from the rest of the branch chiefs. It doesn't matter if Luo Changsheng is dead or not, this has nothing to do with us. "

Zhao Qingyan thought for a while and nodded, "That should be the case."

Lu Sobbing threw up his hands, "So, we just need to know that Luo Changxiu is still alive and this matter is over."

Zhao Qingyan slapped her forehead and said, "Yes."

Lu Sobbing saw that he suddenly became agitated, and asked in a daze, "What's wrong? You have a headache? "

Zhao Qingyan picked up a porcelain bottle and poured two pills into his mouth. He then poured some tea into his mouth and said, "A little." "If you have anything else to say, please say it. After that, I would like to rest for a while."

Lu Sobbing said, "It's not that important, it's just that I came over to tell you about it. "Alright, I'll be going now. Have a good rest."

Zhao Qingyan, who was lying on the table, hummed in a low voice.

Lu Sobbing bitterly smiled at him, then got up and left.

Zhao Qingyan hesitated for a moment between "take a few steps and lie down on the bed" and "lie down for a while before going to bed" before choosing the latter. After that, she slowly fell asleep due to the heavy sleepiness.

"What kind of person is Tang Xiao Ai?" The ten-year old child slightly raised his head and looked at the handsome man beside him, his eyes were filled with confusion.

The man looked at him, but did not directly answer. "Why do you ask that?"

The child tilted his head. "Maybe it's because my father and the rest said Tang Xiao is an unpardonable sinner, but they want to send me over. It's strange."

The man put down the book in his hand and touched his hair. "You don't want to go?"

The child was stunned. "No." If my father asks me to go, I will. "I'm just a little curious about him …"

"Curious?" The man mumbled to himself, then smiled and said, "How about this, you go first. I wrote down my opinion of him on a piece of paper. Don't read it. Three months? If you think you already know what kind of person he is after you've been with him for three months, then read the letter I wrote you. "

The child nodded and looked straight at the man with his ink-black eyes. His eyes seemed to be filled with sadness.

The man was puzzled. "What's wrong? "Are you not feeling well?"

The child shook his head, then pursed his lips and whispered, "I'm scared."

The man took a few sheets of Xuan paper, and a pen into his hand. He smiled and said, "Write it down. It's the same as before. If you're afraid, write it down." When you have finished writing, your fear will be taken away by another and you will forget the fear that is tormenting you. After many years, when you feel you can face up to the fear of the past, take out what you have written. When you're done reading, you'll realize that the fear that once caused you so much pain and suffering is no longer worth mentioning. "

"Give it to the future?" The child lowered his eyes and tried to reveal a smile. In the end, it all turned into bitterness. "Qingfeng, I'm afraid that I can't do it. I'm afraid that I won't be able to face those times."

The man suddenly didn't know what to say. A long time later, he let out a long sigh. "It was still too forced on you."

The child didn't know if he could understand his sigh. He raised his head and looked at him seriously. "What should I do? "I'll do it."

The man faintly smiled and said, "No need, it's good enough."

That's good enough...

To make a child sensible was to strip him of his right to mess around and deprive him of the happiness of his youth. This was too cruel.

Since she couldn't give him a peaceful and calm ten years, she had to at least give him some comfort in terms of being able to do something that was limited, so that he wouldn't be too lonely, too helpless, and too desperate …
