Chapter 85: Aboard Xiao Wuxin's Pirate Ship(1/2)
Ever since she came to this world, Xiao Wuxin has found that she seems to have an extra hobby. She always likes to pick up some random people, no matter whether you are fainted or awake.
It is another beautiful day, but only for Xiao Wuxin. In the eyes of others, this day will be a day that overturns the past.
Xiao Wuyan completely lost her voice. I don't know if she thought she was defeated or because she had other plans. Long Zhan passed by during his inspection and told Xiao Wuxin that Xiao Wuyan came to see him and left.
Little did they know that Xiao Wuxin now knew exactly what was happening in the entire Xiao Mansion.
The secret guard sent by Rong Jue was so powerful that he knew what she needed without her even needing to speak.
The second lady, who had been silent for a long time, was finally ready to make a move. Just as Xiao Wuxin initially predicted, she intended to use Xiao Wuyan's hands to achieve her own goals, and Xiao Wuyan seemed to have reached some kind of agreement with her and acquiesced to this use.
The rumblings in the capital did not gradually relax with the quietness of Xiao Mansion, and there was actually another reason why these people were talking about it and clinging to it.
"If the Xiao Mansion belongs to the imperial court, then the Xiao family belongs to the family lineage. An alien who is half aristocratic and half imperial family is still one of the three major families. Many people have long been uncomfortable with this kind of position of trying to please both sides."
Gu Qingyang, who had brought a lotus pod to Xiao Wuxin, was sitting in the courtyard chatting with Xiao Wuxin. There were two deck chairs, under a tree, and a lotus pod in each person's hand. Lotus seed shells were everywhere on the ground.
"So as long as dad remains in his current situation, this kind of exclusion will always exist. The emperor cannot tolerate a family that cannot fully submit to him to monopolize power in the court, and those cultivating families cannot fully tolerate an official who works for the emperor among them.
, this side is like a thorn in the eye, a thorn in the flesh.”
As he said that, he threw the lotus seeds in his hand into his mouth, and the crisp and sweet smell overflowed between his lips and teeth. Xiao narrowed his eyes in unintentional enjoyment.
Gu Qingyang nodded, he sighed and said: "That's what it says, but don't worry, girl. That guy Rong Jue is also the regent, the emperor's brother! As long as he is here, the emperor will not touch you..."
A trace of melancholy flashed across his eyes, and he clicked his tongue and said: "As an emperor, you have an innocent heart at first. If you have been influenced by power for a long time, you will inevitably become jealous."
This is to explain to Xiao Wuxin why the emperor did not express his position immediately after the incident in Xiao's house but just watched on the sidelines. Xuanyuan Tian could not avoid all the common faults of emperors.
"Rong Jue is still blaming himself for this. It's okay that Xuanyuan Tian and he are brothers. Now that he sees Xuanyuan Tian becoming like this, he always thinks that it is because of his original decision."
"Actually, he just likes to worry about it. You and I agree with this kind of thing. Besides, Xuanyuan Tian also had that idea back then, otherwise he would not have accepted the imperial edict!"
That's why he was angry, but most of what he said to Rong Jue was nonsense that went in one ear and out the other. How could he advise Rong Jue to relax? This person would simply ignore him!
"So you found me." Xiao Wuxin glanced at him with a hint of disdain and disgust. Just because of this matter, it took him an hour to hold it in, and it was as if he was constipated when he spoke.
Despised again.
Gu Qingyang handed her a lotus pod in disgust, shook it, and said in a low voice: "Can you help me? You can't eat Rong Jue's lotus seeds in vain!"
The corner of Xiao Wuxin's mouth twitched as he just stretched out his paw, and finally snatched it away.
"You make arrangements, and I'll cooperate." In order to eat, I also worked hard.
Gu Qingyang's face cleared up in an instant, the smile on his face gradually spread, and even his tone of voice became much lighter: "Then it's settled, don't let me go!"
"Cuckoo..." She can fly any pigeon, as long as she wants to, she will be the king of pigeons.
Gu Qingyang's smile disappeared instantly: "..." Ahhhhh, these two are going to make him angry to death!
However.
Not long after, the two of them were stunned again, and even looked at each other in unison.
"Do you understand?" Gu Qingyang said dumbfounded.
Every time he said this to others, they were always confused, and some even said they didn't raise pigeons.
This was the first time he communicated so smoothly, even though the other party was a little girl...
Xiao Wuxin opened her eyes wide, as if she had encountered something incredible: "You also know?"
"I don't know. I have a friend who knows, and I learned it from him." After I learned it, no one understood it. It was so sad.
Xiao Wuxin couldn't suppress the slight ripples in her heart. She didn't even know when she sat up. When she came back to her senses, she lowered her eyes to hide her thoughts and said softly: "Well, I also heard from a
I only found out about it after a friend told me about it.”
"What a coincidence!"
Gu Qingyang suddenly became excited and couldn't wait to ask: "Which friend is it? Where is she? Can I meet her?"
"she……"
Xiao Wuxin was slightly ashamed. In fact, she didn't have any friends. It was just her random words.
"She has left Yulan Country. I don't know where she is now. Maybe I won't see her again in the future." Forget it, anyway, the person sitting here is Gu Qingyang, not Rong Jue, so that shouldn't be the case.
will arouse suspicion.
Gu Qingyang, who had no idea that he had been kicked into the dust by being despised, suddenly realized what he said, and then nodded, with an undisguised look of regret on his face.
What a pity.
Otherwise, Xiao Wuxin's friend could be allowed to meet that guy. Maybe they are from the same place.
Xiao Wuxin breathed a sigh of relief, pursed her lips and smiled: "Is there anything else?"
"I can't find you when I have nothing to do? You little heartless kid, do you know that I was almost ordered to find you by that guy Rong Jue because of your trivial matter? You just treat me like this..."
Gu Qingyang said that he was very hurt and covered his heart, but his handsome face was smiling brighter than anyone else. It was obvious that he had long been accustomed to this kind of life of being kicked back and forth, although it hurt his heart every time.
Before Xiao Wuxin could say anything, Gu Qingyang stood up on his own.
He patted his sleeves, brushed off the lotus seed shells on them, cleared his throat, folded his arms, and said with a smile in his eyes: "That's it, I'll come see you another day."
"...As you wish." Xiao Wuxin, who has written the words "walk slowly without giving up" on her face, doesn't think there is anything wrong with burning bridges by crossing the river. The first time she does this kind of thing, she will feel guilty, the second time she will hesitate, and the third time
His face does not change color.
The Nth time - invulnerable!
Gu Qingyang, who was stumbling on his feet, rolled his eyes at her dejectedly, snorted, and disappeared from his place with a slight sway.
I don't even want to leave the door anymore.
Xiao Wuxin put the lotus pod in her hand aside, and when she sat up, she looked sideways at the back of the house, chuckled, and said in a loud voice, "Okay, the person has left, so you don't have to hide and come out."
Behind the house, Chu Tianqi poked his head out with a troubled face. After making sure that Gu Qingyang had left, he slowly stood up and walked over.
As he walked away, he said, "You, Uncle Gu, are so good at talking. I was almost embarrassed to death from hiding behind my back, but he still lay down and continued chatting!"
"He's just worried about me, so he talks more..."
Her eyes suddenly wandered around him, and there was a hint of amusement. Xiao Wuxin raised her lips and said: "Besides, with his cultivation level, he can easily detect your existence. Why are you hiding?"
Gu Qingyang definitely knew that there was a third person in this courtyard. Although Xiao Wuxin didn't know what level of cultivation he had reached, the feeling he and Rong Jue gave to Xiao Wuxin was completely different from the feeling Chu Tianqi gave Xiao Wuxin.
.
The former's aura was close to nothingness, but Xiao Wuxin, who had always been extremely sensitive to unfamiliar auras, was unable to lock onto them. Even not long after getting along, the two people seemed to be easily removed from her mind.
As for Chu Tianqi, Xiao Wuxin could tell the depth of this person from the first moment they saw him. Although his cultivation level was higher than hers, his mental power was much weaker than hers.
Yan Ling once said that her mental power is still at the peak of the Golden Core Stage, which is equivalent to the ninth level of the Spirit King in this world!
Therefore, Xiao Wuxin can be sure that Chu Tianqi's cultivation level should be at the spiritual master stage, not exceeding the spiritual king.
"What did you say?!" Chu Tianqi suddenly felt as if he was struck by lightning, and his voice reached a high pitch.
He knows that man...
It's over.
Feeling dizzy for a while, Chu Tianqi squatted silently on the ground holding his head, his whole body shutting up.
He is just like a fool, and he thinks he is hiding it well, but everyone knows! He is no longer alive, it is shameless to live, and it is embarrassing...
"Don't be like this. It's not a big deal. Don't worry, he won't take it too seriously. You can go back and talk to the people around you." Xiao Wuxin came over and comforted her.
What did you say?
Of course there is a silly boy in her yard.
Chu Tianqi, who was not comforted, said that he was even more desperate...
"What should I do?" Chu Tianqi burst into tears, and he didn't dare to see anyone anymore.
Xiao Wuxin: "..." I have never done anything like comforting anyone in my eight lives, so why did it happen to her?
"Cold salad!" came the ruthless voice, and a certain woman turned around and left expressionlessly.
Comforting?
Sorry, I came here in a hurry and forgot to point out the passive conscience and active skills empathetic.
"Hey..."
What kind of devil on earth has he followed!
Just last night, Xiao Wuxin, who had successfully tricked people into serving tea and water at his door, started his own deception plan, forcing Chu Tianqi to realize that without her, he would probably continue to live on the streets and continue to be subjected to people like those
He is harassed pervertedly like a fat woman and may even be caught by his family and never come out again.
Then.
Chu Tianqi, who was successfully frightened by Xiao Wuxin, hugged her thigh tightly and said in horror: "Help me! You can do anything you want me to do, but I can't go back, my father will break my legs!"
Sneaking out, he could already imagine how dark his father's face was. If he was caught, he shouldn't beat him to the point of losing half of his life!
At least, you have to lie in bed for half a year, and then stay in confinement for a few years. It is called self-cultivation.
Anyway, for them, a few years just passed by in the blink of an eye, not enough time at all, but for Chu Tianqi, it was not the case. Half a year in bed was enough to drive him crazy, and a few more years in prison would not make him crazy.
To be continued...
