For a while, the three people in the room were silent.

After a while, Li Sheng changed his voice and said, "Auntie is back, you don't have to think about these things. I heard that my uncle will come back after a while."

Zhou Fei finally heard some good news, her eyes lit up: "Really, he's going home?"

Li Sheng didn't see Kai Huai very much, he nodded perfunctorily, then frowned and said, "I'm afraid there's going to be a war."

Even though many people think that the Cao family's name is not right, they still stand firm in the northern half of the country, so they don't know any other skills, and they are sure to be able to fight. When Emperor Jianyuan went south, he was just an ignorant young man, but now he is in the prime of his ambitious years. With the dedicated efforts of Liang Shao and Zhou Yitang, his power has gradually grown. He radically reformed the administration of officials and the tax system. Presumably not for the sake of peace.

Although the two years between the north and the south are still peaceful, everyone knows that there will eventually be a battle between the two sides, and there is a reason for it to be triggered.

In the last battle, the two sides took Hengshan as their base.

This time, forty-eight villages became the man who ignited the pào fire.

Will the fire of war burn to the middle of Shu?

Zhou Fei couldn't help but think of the empty secret passage on Hengshan Mountain, and felt that many things in the world seemed familiar, and every piece seemed to be a replica of what happened before.

If the big boss came back a little later, wouldn't there be only one empty mountain left here?

Will the 48th Village become another Hengshan where every family is closed during the day?

and also……

The rest of Zhou Fei didn't dare to think about it.

Wen Yu came up at this juncture, although he almost blocked Cao Ning, and his success was down, but it was too coincidental.

Behind this General Feiqing is Zhou Yitang, not the Cao Ning who made her want to stab her to death as soon as she met her. She couldn't neutrally analyze the good intentions and malice behind her.

"Miss Wu and the others are back." Li Sheng said again, "I wanted to see you together, but just now she was invited by my aunt to speak. I heard that Senior Brother Chenfei..."

Zhou Fei sighed.

Li Sheng's thumb-pinching action suddenly accelerated by three points. After a long while, he exhaled very lightly and restrainedly, and said, "Understood, you can rest."

After he finished speaking, he slammed Li Yan away like a sheep. Li Yan was originally reluctant, but her brother glared at him and reprimanded him, "Have you practiced yet?", and immediately ran away in despair.

I don't know how long this chaos will inspire her.

However, Li Sheng paused for a moment at the door. He stretched out his hand to hold the door frame and turned his head against the light. For a moment, he seemed to have broken some taboo, and blurted out to Zhou Fei, "Your knife is very good."

Zhou Fei was stunned for a moment, and thought he was talking about Wangchūn Mountain, and the phrase "take it if you like it", which is accustomed to xing, reached the tip of her tongue. circling in.

Unexpectedly, Li Sheng said in the next sentence: "Your aptitude and understanding of qigong practice are indeed stronger than mine. For so many years, I have been chasing after them hard, but I can't always catch up. I am very unwilling."

Zhou Fei: "..."

Li Yan: "..."

The two of them stared at Li Sheng like a ghost in one door and the other outside. The hero saw the same thing and thought that Li Sheng might have taken the wrong medicine.

Li Sheng waved his hand impatiently, as if he wanted to turn those annoying gazes away, and said bluntly to Zhou Fei: "But thinking about it, in fact, there are so many unwillingnesses, except for self-deception, it's useless. The only useful thing is to practice hard. You don't have to be too proud of what you said today, but now you are ahead, but it may not be ten or twenty years from now."

He spit out the words that stuck in his heart in one breath. Although there was a kind of strange joy, he also had a kind of shame that he had stripped away in public. The last sentence and every word flew out with wings. After flying, Li Sheng He couldn't stay any longer, he turned around and left, giving Zhou Fei no room to answer.

Li Yan was afraid that she would know too much and be silenced by Li Sheng, so she also ran away.

The unreliable siblings didn't even close the door for her.

As a wounded, Zhou Fei stared lonely for a moment with the small courtyard outside the door, which was stained with autumn colors, and was shivered by Xiaofeng. With crutches, move it step by step to go to the gate in person.

As soon as she reached the door, she heard a flute.

The flute is not good, the high notes can't go up, the low notes can't go down, and the turning points are a bit hoarse, but the chuī flute master has two brushes. In the hand, it can also turn corruption into magic, holding such a shoddy thing, occasionally playing a few tricks with ease, revealing a little innocuous slickness.

Zhou Fei leaned against the door frame, looked up, and saw Xie Yun sitting on the top of the tree, leaning against a branch very relaxedly, automatically following the wind, very comfortable.

Zhou Fei waited for him to finish a piece of music in its original place, and then asked, "What piece of music?"

"Li hate is born in the building of hate." Xie Yun smiled, "How many times have I heard people sing on the road, why do you ask?"

Zhou Fei pondered it carefully, and it seemed that it was indeed a passage from "Lie Hate Tower", but when other people played and sang it, it was a bittersweet parting, but when it came to him, the tone was brisk, and the endings were even very playful. So it's not like "Li Hate", it's a bit like "Get out", she didn't hear it for a while.

Xie Yun looked at Zhou Fei with a smile and asked, "I'll see you, will you let me in the girl's boudoir?"

Zhou Fei: "No."

Xie Yun heard the words, jumped down from the tree, folded up his long sleeves with a smile on his face, and gave a fake bow: "Alas, I have a bad ear tone recently, and I have been listening to people's words and missing words - since the girl has invited me, I will be disrespectful. Yes, thank you very much."

Zhou Fei: "..."

Under her astonishing gaze, Xie Yun entered the room in a grand manner, grabbed the long knife in Zhou Fei's hand by the way, pulled her wrist to the side of the room, and said to the guest: "Lie down and lie down, let's take the two of us. jiāoqíng, why do you have to greet me at the door?"

His mouth was mean, but his eyes were quite orderly, and he didn't look around at random—although there really wasn't anything to look around in Zhou Fei's house.

Zhou Fei observed silently for a moment, and suddenly found that he has a very interesting characteristic. The more troubled and uncomfortable he is, the more he likes to play with his own face. On the contrary, he can say a few serious words when his heart is relaxed. human words.

Xie Yun noticed her gaze: "What are you looking at me? I'm so handsome and handsome, I'll be paid for seeing too much."

Zhou Fei said, "I don't have any money, so you can see for yourself."

Xie Yun was stunned by her counterattack that was in line with her own style: "You..."

"You" for a long time, he didn't pick up the words, he couldn't help laughing first.

Immediately, his smile faded away, and he gently rubbed his flute: "Is there anything you want to ask me?"

Zhou Fei wanted to ask too many questions.

For example, why does Cao Ning look like he is very familiar with him? What about the "Pushing Cloud Palm" in Gu Tianxuan's mouth? Since he is extremely talented, how could he have been chased by a group of Jianghu Xiaoxiao before? He is investigating. What the heck is a sea and sky?

However, these words poured into her mouth, and she swallowed them one after another. She could see that Xie Yun asked this question, but she couldn't hide it. In fact, she didn't want to say it. The nonsense was waiting for her to be blinded, and she asked for nothing.

After a long time, Zhou Fei asked, "Are you going to fight?"

Xie Yun's obscure eyes fell on her, as if shocked that she had asked such a question. After a while, he said, "Cao Ning is not the son of the queen."

Zhou Fei: "..."

Xie Yun answered the question, she did not understand the cause and effect relationship for a while.

"Cao Zhongkun was usurping the throne. He didn't pay much attention to it before. He accepted a son to be the outer chamber, and only when he was pregnant with Cao Ning did he take him back as a concubine. This is quite disgraceful. That woman died after giving birth to Cao Ning. This Cao Ning was sick in the womb, and his body and appearance were different from ordinary people since he was a child. You can see it. Is it because his life was not good, or someone moved his hands and feet back then? I don't know." Xie Yun said, "It is said that because of his background and appearance, Cao Zhongkun has not been liked since he was a child, and Cao Zhongkun himself does not want to admit this son... But this person is not mediocre. He resigned his biological father at the age of 21 and asked to go to the army to practice. Cao Zhongkun didn't like him, and he probably wouldn't feel bad about him when he died, so he let him go. Who knows that although this son can't practice martial arts, he is quite good at the art of war. China's prestige grows."

Zhou Fei was still at a loss as she listened to these palace secrets with difficulty.

"Cao Ning got into Cao Zhongkun's eyes with military merit," Xie Yun said, "Cao Zhongkun knows how he came to power, and has always held military power firmly in his hands. He is not afraid of his son's military merit, but the prince is afraid - you remember a few years ago when Has there ever been a rumor that Cao Zhongkun was seriously ill? At that time, Beidou took the opportunity to attack, and the Northern Dynasty court was also cleaned. Everyone knows that it was just a test by the fake emperor, but I doubt it is true. The age of the fake emperor is there. , that he can ascend to the honor of ninety-five, does not mean that he can live forever - if you are the prince and have a younger brother who is full of military skills, what would you think?"

Zhou Fei finally vaguely understood something: "You mean..."

"The prince can't tolerate him. Conversely, Cao Ning may not have no idea about the prince. Cao Ning seems to have returned in vain when he sent his troops south to Shuzhong, but after this battle, if the north and south start a war on this, right For him, it is a great benefit." Xie Yun said, "On the contrary, it is Dazhao. Although he also wants to recover the northern land and return to the old capital, it may not be a good time to start at this time, because the new policy has achieved initial results. It's time to gather strength. Second, once Cao Zhongkun dies and the new emperor of the old capital takes over, there will be an uproar in the north. Wouldn't it be more secure to take advantage of it? Mr. Gan Tang used to use chūn's means of weathering the rain, rather than To start a war across the board, he is more willing to wait for the opportunity to provoke civil strife in the Northern Dynasty."

Zhou Fei pursed her lips.

Xie Yun was too smart, she just asked a question, and he saw clearly the doubts in her heart. At this time, he said it, and in a few words, he pushed the stone from her chest away.

Zhou Fei asked, "Don't you think I think too much?"

Xie Yun laughed quietly: "Kou Dan and Ma Jili betrayed one after another. You are still willing to entrust me with those things even though you are seriously injured... I think you think too little."

He said, took out the small silk cloth bag that Zhou Fei had stuffed into her hand that day, and put it by her pillow: "Okay, I can finally retire and return the thing to its original owner, so I'll bring it to you quickly. , so you won't be able to replace it when Miss Wu comes over."

After Xie Yun finished speaking, as if he had left a burden, he stood up and wanted to go: "When I asked your name, your brother was not happy. If I disturb your rest again, he is going to come and bombard me, so let's go."

Zhou Fei stopped him subconsciously: "Hey..."

Xie Yun took a step and lowered his eyelashes, his eyes were almost gentle for a while.

Zhou Fei didn't want to let him go, because there were still a lot of unfinished questions. For example, even if he was a master, why did he keep hiding it all the time, why did he suddenly reveal it that day?

To save her?

The phrase "I can actually take you away" in the sword, light and sword shadow, and the finger that chūn printed on her cheek when she returned to the town...

Zhou Fei looked at Xie Yun and suddenly felt a little aggrieved, because she really didn't know how to speak, and Xie Yun's grandson seemed to be planning to pretend that nothing happened!

Xie Yun: "What's the matter?"

Zhou Fei held it back for a while, and then said, "Where are you staying?"

"The guest room in your village." Xie Yun said with a smile, "Your land is really beautiful, and it is very comfortable in autumn and winter. I plan to stay for a while. Hurry up and heal your wounds, and show me the scenery of the middle of Shu."

☆、Chapter 95

Zhou Fei stared at Xie Yun with a very strange look.

Xie Yun asked, "What happened?"

Zhou Fei hesitated for a while, and felt that she had probably been lying down for a long time, and the sun still twitched in pain: "I always feel that this is not like what you would say."

Xie Yun laughed: "Then what would I say? Hurry up and fatten up a bit, come over and be the princess of Duan for me?"

Zhou Fei: "..."

Xie Yun walked out while laughing, holding his broken flute in his hand and carrying it behind him. For a moment, Zhou Fei suddenly felt that the tips of his fingers were reddish, but there was a morbid smell on the back of his hand. It was bluish white, as if it had just been taken out of the ice water.

Zhou Fei blurted out, "Brother Xie, are you all right?"

I don't know if it was her illusion, Xie Yun's footsteps seemed to stop for a while.

She held onto the pillar and stood up top-heavy: "And I haven't finished, you told me the other day that there is something very important in this cloth bag, it's the key to 'the sea and the sky', what's the matter."

"Anyway, this matter has been deliberately exposed, it's okay to tell you," Xie Yun said lazily, stepping on the threshold with a bit of perfunctory, "There should be something with water ripples on it. The water ripples are the sign of 'the sea and the sky'."

The more Zhou Fei listened, the more she felt that something was wrong, and calmly asked, "Which one is it?"

Xie Yun put on a dignified face, as if he had never written yín/ciyan/qu, and replied, "How can I rummage through the things in the girl's house? You can find it out by yourself."

Zhou Fei took a step by step and said: "But haven't you been tracking down 'Hai Tian Yi Se'?"

Don't even look at it?

Xie Yun: "..."

He suddenly found that she has grown a lot in the past few days, and she has learned to slap on the side!

Zhou Fei: "And..."

She hadn't said anything else, when a flower suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, Xie Yun came to her in a flash, raised her hand unexpectedly, and swept her sleepy xué rightly.

Zhou Fei struggled to stand still, unable to dodge in time, and she lacked defense against him. Her eyes widened in astonishment, and then she finally closed weakly, and was brought down by him without any resistance.

Xie Yun gently caught her, carefully picked Zhou Fei up and put it back, muttering: "There are so many 'bear children', I thought you could hold back for two more days."

He wanted to reach out and scratch Zhou Fei's nose, but when he stretched out his hand, he froze in the air again, because he found that his hand was shaking involuntarily. To form a fine layer of frost.

The smile on Xie Yun's face also slowly condensed. He withdrew his frozen blue hands and held them together. Like a traveler who was traveling in the open air on a snowy night in the north, he sighed in the palm of his hand. Rub back and forth.

However, it didn't help, because he found that even his breath was starting to turn cold.

It was in the afternoon, the warmest time of the day. The pouring sunlight escaped the old wood in front of the window, pierced the window lattice, and rushed in, but it seemed that all of them had passed him by, not even a trace of warmth could bear him.
