Forty: Little tricks
Xu Fan shook his head slightly and said with a smile, "If you two adults ask about Diaoyutai Lu Baihu, I really have no news here."
The girl in the fiery red unicorn robe glared at Xu Fan coldly, "You must be hiding something from us. I advise you to recruit the truth. Once, once..."
The girl could not casually say that Mu Yunliang was about to arrive in Jinling, so she could only turn to Yinya and snort coldly.
Xiao Yun, the white-faced scholar, had a happy smile on his face and patted the arm of the girl in the fiery red unicorn robe. "Little Princess, okay, okay. I'd better ask."
Xiao Yun came here this time to observe closely the current head of the Xu family, a prominent family in Jiangnan Road. Xu Fan, a sixteen-year-old boy.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and two rays of light slowly swept over Xu Fan. He coughed slightly and said a little weakly, "Master Xu, please don't be offended. Our little princess has such a temperament."
"I wonder what Master Xu thinks of the Yin Yang Gate?" As he spoke, there were some subtle changes in Xiao Yun's eyes.
If Xu Fan was just an ordinary sixteen-year-old boy, he would never be able to escape.
At this moment, Xu Fan was sitting across from the two of them, with a somewhat demented look on his face, as if his mind was controlled by some voice, and he made intermittent sounds, "The Yin and Yang Sect is a traitor appointed by the imperial court. They are cruel and ruthless, and they will kill me."
Almost everyone in the Xu family was slaughtered."
"When the Yin Yang Gate burned down the Xu Mansion, where was Lu Baishan?" Xiao Yun's eyes narrowed and his voice suddenly turned cold.
Xu Fan's breathing on the opposite side was a little rapid, and his voice became increasingly erratic, "Lu, Mr. Lu is here, in the Xu Mansion."
"What is he doing in Xu Mansion?"
"Lu, Mr. Lu is outside the Xu Mansion."
"doing what?"
Xiao Yun's cold voice rose a little higher, and he tightly grasped the arm of the girl in the fiery red unicorn robe with his right hand, subconsciously adding some strength.
The girl groaned in pain. Listening to the conversation between the two, she was shocked. She didn't expect that Mr. Xiao from the palace could really read minds.
At this time, Xu Fan frowned, his face gradually turned pale, his breathing became more rapid, and his voice was intermittent, "Here, waiting."
After saying these three words, Xu Fan fell down on the round table nearby and passed out.
"Sir, he..."
The girl in the fiery red unicorn robe exclaimed with surprise. They were here to investigate the Xu family. If the young master of the Xu family died during their interrogation, then the trouble would be a bit tricky.
The white-faced scholar took out a brocade handkerchief from his arms and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said slowly, "Don't worry, he is just unconscious."
The Yin Yang Gate burned down the Xu Mansion, but Diaoyutai Lu Baishan was waiting.
Xiao Yun got some clues from the few words Xu Fan said, and initially believed that Lu Baishan was colluding with the people from the Yin Yang Gate Jiangnan Road branch.
In this case, their goal is very clear, that is, Xu Mansion's industries in various places in Jiangnan Province.
In the guest room, Xiao Yun's eyes were cold. He really didn't expect that the hundred households in Diaoyutai in Jinling would cooperate with the Yin and Yang Sect, let alone that their cooperation failed.
Looking at the unconscious Xu Fan across from him, a flash of thought suddenly flashed through his eyes, but it was fleeting.
Just a moment's thought caused a huge wave in Xiao Yun's heart.
"Let's go." Xiao Yun stood up slowly, her eyes always staying on Xu Fan's body. The moment she walked out of the room, the complex and solemn look in her eyes did not disappear.
The girl in the fiery red unicorn robe who was following him looked at the uncertain look on Mr. Xiao's face and murmured in her heart, "If this young man really has a problem, just take him back to the Six Gates of Jinling. What's so embarrassing about it?"
The girl didn't know that it was easy to deal with Xu Fan in Xiao Yun's heart, but it was really difficult to completely grasp the Xu family's properties in various places.
Such actions by a householder from Yin Yang Gate and Diaoyutai had already aroused the vigilance of Shenjing, otherwise Mu Yunliang, the governor of Diaoyutai, would not have hurried southward.
Emperor Longxing would not order the vassals in various places to supervise each Taoism. This was also to keep the vassals wary of each other.
In Jiangnan Road, Qin Ruhai even sent out soldiers to guard various important places. It was obviously to encircle and suppress the Yin Yang Gate rebels, but the real purpose was not to prevent the vassal king from sending troops to cross the border.
At nightfall, Xu Fan got up leisurely and took a look at the empty room. Only a basin of charcoal fire gave off a faint light, making the room much warmer.
He was also covered with a fleece quilt. This was after Xiao Yun and the others left. Zi'er entered the room and saw his young master sleeping, but didn't want to wake him up, so he covered him with a fleece quilt and let the young man sleep.
A charcoal basin was added to the room.
All this did not escape Xu Fan's notice, but in order not to let the nails left behind by the six doors notice, he could only continue to pretend to be asleep.
When Xu Fan pushed open the door, he saw two detectives with six doors outside the corridor, glanced at him, and then left in a hurry.
Looking at the two six-door catchers, the sneer at the corner of Xu Fan's mouth disappeared briefly, "You actually used a little trick like mind reading on me. Since you want to connect the Yin and Yang Gate and the Diaoyutai, I will
Just push the boat along."
At this time, Zi'er, who had been nodding sleepily at the door, felt a gust of warm wind blowing from the door, her body trembled, she looked up, a dazed face showed a touch of joy, and said happily, "Master, you're awake!
"
Xu Fan stretched out his hand, rubbed Zi'er's head again, and said with a smile, "You stupid girl, why are you guarding the door?"
"I, I..." Zi'er subconsciously glanced at the two figures who were about to disappear at the end of the corridor, and took a deep breath, "I am protecting the young master."
Xu Fan laughed heartily, "My Zi'er is the most concerned about me. Are you hungry? Let's go find something to eat."
"Okay." Zi'er smiled brightly, revealing two small dimples, and followed Xu Fan towards the courtyard where everyone in the Xu family rested. She no longer had the dejected look of the previous few days.
After dinner, Xu Fan asked Zi'er to go back to the room to relax, while he returned to the inner room.
Not long after, a white figure flashed in and appeared next to Xu Fan's bed. His face was indifferent and his eyes were cold. He glanced at Xu Fan, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, and said softly, "People from Nan'an Prince's Palace are looking for you."
What's the matter with you?"
Xu Fan was invited to question by the people from the Six Gates, and Bai Luohe naturally noticed it.
At this time, the Prince of Nan'an, who was originally hiding in the dark, came to Xu Fan on the eve of everyone in the Xu family entering Jinling City, and came in the name of the Six Gates of Jinling.
The hidden meaning in it can’t help but make people think deeply.
The room was dark, with only the faint moonlight pouring down from the window. There were two people in the room, one sitting in meditation on the bed, and the other standing quietly beside the bed.
For a moment, the room was extremely quiet.
There was no reply. After a while, Bai Luohe asked again, "Xu Fan?"
"Wait a little longer." Xu Fan said with his eyes still closed.
At this moment, the qi in Xu Fan's body that wandered through the meridians all over his body returned to the cyclone orifice in Zifu. This raging qi was different from any other qi in the past. It was infected by Xiao Yun's mind-reading ability.
, in order to pretend to cooperate with the other party, Xu Fan had to seal off the meridians in his body at that time.
At that time, the flow of Qi was blocked, but when it was opened again, it caused the Qi to run wild. It was as if a giant beast that had been shut down for a long time was finally released.
A faint sound of swords sounded in the Zi Mansion, suppressing the violent energy.
After more than half an hour, Xu Fan took out a heavy breath of turbid air with blood mist, raised his head and wiped away the cold air and frost that had escaped from his forehead.
"What's wrong with you?" There was a hint of worry in Bai Luohe's beautiful eyes, and his cold voice had a touch of softness unknowingly.
Xu Fan flicked his sleeves and robe, got up and went to the square table next to the bed. He filled another cup of peach blossom wine, drank it "Gurgling", and then breathed a long sigh of relief.
"It's considered a plot against someone. It's not a big deal."
Bai Luohe understood that the Nan'an Prince's Palace came under the guise of the Six Gates in order to secretly attack Xu Fan and completely establish the collusion between Diaoyutai Lu Baishan and the Yin Yang Gate.
In this way, they can take advantage of the situation to suppress the Yin-Yang Sect, and even try to control the Yin-Yang Sect secretly.
Bai Luohe sneered, "Nan'an Palace wants to take advantage of you?"
"It's considered mutual use. I just told him what he wanted to think of. It's just mutual benefit."
Xu Fan drank another cup of peach blossom wine, looked back at the white figure standing behind him, frowned slightly and said, "Are you worried about me?"
Bai Luohe snorted coldly and looked away, looking out the window at the dark night. "I'm worried about you! Stop being so pretty!"
"Okay, it doesn't matter if you don't admit it." Xu Fan waved his hand casually, loosened his left hand, clenched it tightly, and then loosened it again. As a result, a trace of Qi bulged in the palm of his hand was slowly discharged from the body.
"It's not a big deal. The Prince of Nan'an suspects that the Yin-Yang Sect is colluding with Lu Baishan from Diaoyutai. Since they are colluding, I will let them believe that what he suspects is the truth."
"Also, how come Nan'an Prince's Palace is mixed up with the Six Gates of Jinling? I've never heard you mention it before." Xu Fan turned sideways, looked at Bai Luohe's cold figure, and asked casually.
"The Six Gates of Jinling are no better than the Six Gates of Shenjing. Although they both belong to the Sanfa Division, the Six Gates of Jinling have long been infiltrated by the Five Kings and Ten Dukes, including some people from major families in the south. Their arrangement is just for the sake of thinking.
Find out all kinds of information through the six doors." Bai Luohe glanced at Xu Fan lightly, as if looking at an idiot.
Xu Fan met Bai Luohe's gaze and could only shrug his shoulders angrily. As if he didn't see the hidden meaning in those beautiful eyes, he just said "oh" softly.
"Since the little princess can enter the six doors, can you too?" Xu Fan asked with a smirk on his lips.
"Do you want me to die?" Bai Luohe's eyes turned cold, he jumped up and disappeared into the room.
"Hey~ I forgot that you are from the Yin and Yang Sect." Xu Fan tapped his fingers on the table and shook his head slightly.
Now that he has come to Jinling, he is always being watched by all parties. He needs someone to help him find out all kinds of information to prevent things like Guangling Mansion from happening again.
At least he could make some preparations, otherwise he would be surrounded by people in the mansion, and he would still be at the mercy of others in the Court of Waves.
