Chapter 380 The Sect Master of the Gate of Life and Death, Sikongyu!
In front of Jun Lingyun and the others, there is a valley surrounded by mountains, green mountains, green waters, and thousands of flowers. The houses are built according to the terrain. There are tea gardens, farmland, and water wheels turn to introduce streams into the fields.
There are adults working in the fields and children playing.
Occasionally, there is the sound of "ding ding" of forging iron, the sound of children reading aloud, and the sound of haha practicing martial arts. It becomes a paradise of its own.
Chu Yunxi was moved by this scene and almost shed tears. Isn't this exactly what Jun Lingyun yearns for and the world he wants to create?
"Who are these people?"
"A poor man who was framed and abandoned by the court, but was saved by the master of the sect."
Jun Lingyun felt a pain in her heart when she heard the words "being framed and abandoned by the court" spoken by the mask.
People who serve as officials muddle along, not seeking merit, but seeking no faults. What should have been done by parents as officials, but Sikong Yu, a man who was hurt by the royal family, did it for him.
As a result, the imperial court not only failed to realize its mistake, but also wanted to destroy them, which is so sad.
"Please."
The masked man led the way. Chu Yunxi knew that he would see Sikong Yu soon, and felt a little excited.
When they walked to the field, a little girl of four or five years old ran up to Chu Yunxi and raised her fleshy face.
"Beautiful sister, where are you from? Can you play with me?"
"I……"
Just when Chu Yunxi didn't know how to answer, a woman came over, bowed to the four masked men, then picked up her child and ran away.
This only happened in an instant, making Chu Yunxi almost think that he was hallucinating.
She shook her head, and after taking a few steps, she saw another half-grown child, trying to jump down from the top of a tree three people high. She was so frightened that she lost her soul. She jumped from such a high height and still broke her body.
Legs?
"Ling Yun, go catch him quickly."
Jun Lingyun raised his eyes and looked at the child. At such a young age, he already had muscles, which showed that he had worked hard.
The masked man is not surprised either.
"It doesn't matter, you can't fall."
Sure enough, Chu Yunxi watched the child stretch his arms in the air, take a few steps in the air, then land firmly on the ground, and turned his head to smile triumphantly at them.
Chu Yunxi patted her thumping chest. The women here are good at martial arts, and so are their children.
She turned her head and glanced at Si Qi again. Even Si Qi had dabbled a little. It turned out that the most useless person present was actually herself.
Chu Yunxi, who had doubts about life, had no choice but to lower his head, ignore what was going on outside the window, and concentrate on walking.
Not long after, the masked man stopped in front of a small courtyard. There were stone tables and benches in the courtyard, as well as a row of wooden shelves where some rare herbs were dried.
The masked man actually took off his mask at this moment and showed his true face.
Jun Lingyun's eyes flickered, and it turned out that it was them! When he was passing through Li City on his way to Nanyan Country, he was reminded of the haunting of his fellow escorts in the forest!
A person who travels as a escort will naturally not be suspected by others. This level of identity is really wonderful.
"I wonder what you call the four of you?"
The four of them clasped their fists one after another.
"Si Shang", "Si Shan", "Si Ruo", "Si Shui".
"Water is good for all things and does not compete with all things. It's a good name."
Jun Lingyun's opinion made the four of them have a better impression of him. It's rare for a prince to be humble and polite, so he was a little more polite to Jun Lingyun.
"Your Highness, please wait in the courtyard for a moment. Our sect master wants to see the Crown Princess alone."
Jun Lingyun glanced at Chu Yunxi and saw her nodding before letting go of her hand.
Chu Yunxi was full of expectation and nervousness, and finally walked to the door of the room, mustered up the courage, raised her hand and knocked on the door.
"Come in."
The magnetic voice sounded, and after so many years, it was still so refreshing.
Chu Yunxi pushed the door open and closed it.
The man in front of her stood upright, with black hair hanging around his body, and a white robe, spotless.
Time does not seem to have left too many traces on Sikong Yu's face. He still has deep eyes and a high nose, but he has lost a bit of his former sharpness and added a bit of freedom and ease.
Chu Yunxi couldn't help but blush when she thought of the days when she followed her husband and read word by word.
She knelt down and worshiped solemnly.
"Student Chu Yunxi, I bow to you sir."
The figure approached, put a hand on her arm, and helped her up.
"I would like to thank you as a teacher. Without the supervision of a teacher, I have grown into such an outstanding person."
Chu Yunxi's nose was slightly sour.
"Sir, Xi'er is now the crown princess of Yunxiao Kingdom. I can help you with whatever you want, sir."
Sikong Yu smiled happily.
"I just hope that you can be a good mother to the people. I don't see you just to ask you to help me."
He paused briefly and said something that made Chu Yunxi's heart tremble.
"Rather, I want to sever the master-disciple relationship with you. From now on, there will be no connection between us, and there is no need for you to interfere in my affairs."
Chu Yunxi looked at Sikong Yu in disbelief, but in the next moment, she realized the deep meaning of her teacher's actions. He was probably ready to make a desperate move.
If things don't work out, I don't want to implicate her. Does he, his mentor, want to kill the king?
Chu Yunxi calmed down and held back the tears that almost burst into her eyes.
"Sir, do you know that Dongfang Huize has recognized me as a senior sister? How many more entry-level disciples have you accepted? You might as well tell me. Since you don't want to be a teacher anymore, no matter how many junior brothers and sisters there are, I, as the senior sister, will
They will all be covered together.”
Sikong Yu shook his head helplessly, Chu Yunxi was even more unreasonable than when he was a child.
"My energy as a teacher is limited, and you only have this one junior brother."
"Oh, well, if I encounter trouble in the future, I will definitely learn from your teacher's teachings and sever ties with my junior brother first, so as not to implicate him."
Sikong Yu suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness welling up in his heart. He had not felt this feeling for many years.
"Xi'er, you have things you must do as a teacher, and you also have a family you have to protect."
"Sir is also a member of Xi'er's family."
Chu Yunxi said it was natural.
"Sir, I know your pain and what you are thinking in your heart, but there is something I want to tell you, sir. Can you decide what to do after you hear it?"
Sikong Yu didn't think that anything could be worth the sins the emperor committed against the Sikong family and change his decision, but after all, Chu Yunxi was the disciple he cared about most.
"What do you want to say?"
Chu Yunxi paused for a moment before speaking.
"About the death of Queen Yin."
Sure enough, she saw Sikong Yu's expression change.
She knew that Queen Yin was the scar in Sikong Yu's heart, but she still had to tell her. She didn't want her mentor to misunderstand that Queen Yin watched the destruction of the Sikong family with cold eyes. How painful would that be for her mentor?
It is better to uncover the scar, remove the abscess, and then heal properly.
Sikong Yu suppressed the trembling in his voice.
"Didn't she die of postpartum hemorrhage?"
In the courtyard outside the door, Jun Lingyun pricked up his ears and listened carefully to what was going on in the house. But what annoyed him was that such an ordinary-looking house was actually soundproof?
Si Shan brought tea.
"Your Highness, don't waste your efforts. Save some internal energy so you can return."
Jun Lingyun didn't say anything, just silently put away his inner strength, thinking about this place, and it was better not to bring Xi'er here again.
He was anxious when the door finally opened. Chu Yunxi closed the door from the outside again, her eyes red.
