Zhou Tian's voice gradually became louder, his face turned as yellow as wax, his lips turned white, and his eyes sunk deeply into the sockets, like a pair of fire beads, stared straight at Lao Xu.
When Mo Xuan saw this, he thought to himself that this was a matter between him and Lao Xu, and it was inconvenient for him to interfere, so he walked to the door and said to Lao Xu: "Senior Xu, Junior Brother Zhou Tian is still very weak now, it's up to you...
.”
After that, he closed the door and walked out.
Xu Qingnian looked at Zhou Tian's angry look and smiled: "Hey, young master, there is nothing to be angry about. I understand what you said. I don't tell you because I want you to concentrate on entering the tower. If I tell you in advance, other than Qian Ling
There are other things in the tower, and according to your temperament, you know what you will do."
Zhou Tian was originally reasonable, but after hearing what he said, it seemed that everything was as it should be, and he frowned and opened his mouth.
"I...."
Xu Qingnian wiped his hands and walked to Zhou Tian. His eyes trembled and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"Master, if I let you know everything, would you be able to enter the tower with such peace of mind? Not to mention that you would use all your strength to subdue Lu Wu. You would have come out long ago... wouldn't you?"
After that, he turned around and walked out the door.
"I'm going to wash my hands. The oil stains on this scallion pancake are too sticky. You have to rest in the room. We'll leave tomorrow."
Zhou Tian didn't wait to reply, Xu Qingnian walked very quickly and walked away from the door.
"Hmph, regarding Senior Brother Mo Xuan and the tavern, just say it's according to my temperament... Let's see how long you can keep talking like this."
Then, he lay back on the bed, closed his eyes still angrily, and fell asleep.
After about three or four hours, Zhou Tian was trembling in his sleep and sweating all over, when suddenly a knife shadow passed through...
"Uh...huh...it turned out to be a dream!"
Zhou Tian stood up and his eyes widened. The sweat on his forehead looked like he had just washed his face. He gradually narrowed his eyes and muttered casually: "Dad..."
"Uncle Zhou, after you left the house three days ago, you came back again and never said why? You have been in the house for three days now, can you tell me?"
It turned out that Zhou Liting wanted to return to Ye Mansion three days ago to discuss how to deal with Haotian Pavilion while the elders of Xuantian Sect were there, but who knew that after three days in a row, most of the people who expressed condolences were the descendants of the elders, which made him very upset.
Puzzled.
For the past three days, he would come to Ye Wensheng's mourning hall early every day. The sight of these heirs made him very sad.
"Youyou, when Brother Ye takes the position of clan leader, don't any elders come to celebrate?"
Youyou lowered her head and thought for a moment, then cast a doubtful look at Wanwan behind her.
"Mr. Zhou, in our Ye family, since I took the position of clan leader, only Elder Xuanyuan and Elder Wang have been here, and the others...have never been seen."
After Zhou Liting heard this, he shook his head: "Why can't we celebrate and condolences? Why..."
Listening to him talking to himself, Youyou walked to the ancestral hall and said mockingly: "Humph, my father most wanted to get the position of clan leader when he was alive. Now that he has got it, he has also been rejected by the elders of the sect. It's really ironic...
..It is better to let Uncle Zhou continue to be the patriarch, maybe dad will not die."
Ye Youyou expressed such emotion for no reason, and Zhou Liting quickly stepped forward and whispered in her ear: "It's okay not to mention the matter of the clan leader, but you must not talk like this."
Maybe it was because the sarcasm Youyou just said to herself was a little loud, so the lady who had calmed down heard it and rushed out of the room like crazy again.
Angrily, he went straight to Youyou. "You white-eyed wolf, I loved you so much when I was alive, but after my death, you let this girl slander you like this. It's been three days, three whole days, and you still let Zhou Liting live in our house. You let me
How can your father close his eyes and let your father's spirit in heaven be at peace!"
As he said that, he was going to give her a slap.
Wanwan stopped her in time and said anxiously: "Madam! Madam, please don't be angry. The young lady only said this because she felt that the master was not worthy..."
"Let go. Since when did you have a personal maid to take care of Ye Mansion's affairs? Let me go!"
"lady!"
Seeing this, Ye Youyou shouted sternly: "Wanwan, you and the other maids, get out of here!"
"Miss?"
Wanwan was afraid that the madam would hurt the young lady, so she was a little worried.
"Back off!"
Youyou yelled again, Wanwan had no choice but to listen as a maid, so she had to retreat slowly.
The madam raised her hand with utter anger, ready to give Youyou a slap.
But Ye Youyou stretched out her face and said sharply: "Hit me! Beat me!"
"When my father was still alive, he was unreasonable to the Zhou family. Because of his father's few words, in order to clarify his innocence, Uncle Zhou abandoned his cultivation and died."
"Brother Zhou Tian, let his father step on his soles, and let other elders insult him. What did the Zhou family say? Although brother Zhou Tian said he wanted revenge, what did he do to harm our Ye family this year?
?”
"Knowing that my brother Zhou Tian and I were childhood sweethearts, they asked me to marry someone I didn't like just because Uncle Zhou had lost all his cultivation. What happened in the end? In the end, Uncle Zhou repaid his grudges with kindness and agreed to hand over the position of clan leader to his father. He got his wish, but
What about you? How did you do it?”
"Now that my father was killed in a strange way, almost none of the elders of the Xuantian Sect have come. Only Uncle Zhou still remembers the past friendship and came to express his condolences. He stayed there for three days. Why? Isn't it just to see the orphans and widowers in our Ye family?
People take care of you!”
"Mom! Wake up. Don't you still know what your father did? Are you still pretending to be crazy?"
Madam listened to Youyou's words and had no reason to refute. She also knew what the master had done when he was still alive, but she was still unconvinced. Why did she finally wait until the day when she came out to be in such a situation?
She put away her arms, stamped her feet in anger, turned around and returned to the room while wiping away tears.
Zhou Liting looked at the Ye Mansion full of servants wearing sackcloth and wearing filial piety, and saw Madam and Youyou arguing just now. He felt that it would be inappropriate to continue to stay in Ye Mansion, so he bowed and saluted: "Youyou, then Uncle Zhou will resign.
Please forgive me for causing trouble in the house these days."
After that, he turned around and left.
"Uncle Zhou?"
Youyou actually didn't mean that. She still wanted Zhou Liting to stay at the house for a few more days.
"Today is the fourth day. There are still three days left before the first seven days. If a large number of elders come during these three days, they must go to the Zhou Mansion to find me. I have something very important to discuss with the elders."
Ye Youyou saw that Zhou Liting had decided to leave, so he saluted and said, "Youyou made a note of it, here you go! Send Uncle Zhou off."
After sending Zhou Liting away, she had been feeling uneasy and confused. If she was really taking care of her, why did she leave again? Could it be that she was really driven away by her mother's harsh words? Absolutely not. A year ago, Zhou Liting was killed.
I was not afraid of such humiliation, let alone a few gossips.
The more she thought about it, the more things were wrong. She was filled with doubts. She knelt in front of her father's coffin, thinking...
Unknowingly, it was already afternoon. Youyou hadn't eaten much in the past few days, and her body had not fully recovered, so she felt a little dizzy and weak.
Sitting on the felt on the ground, his eyes were dull and his mind was empty.
"Miss? Miss?"
Wanwan was worried about Youyou's body. Seeing her back so depressed, she shouted a few words.
Youyou calmed down and turned around to look: "Wanwan, how is my mother?"
"Madam, it's okay. I just have a headache these days. I went to bed after lunch."
Ye Youyou felt that she would be suffocated if she continued to stay in the house. She wanted to go out for a walk, but was blocked by several servants.
"Miss, it's not convenient for you to move around before the first seven days. Please don't break the rules."
When Wanwan saw it, she was furious. She stepped forward and put her hands on her hips and shouted: "What are the rules and regulations? This is the Ye Mansion. You are the slaves of the Ye Mansion. The words of the young lady are the rules. How dare you bully the young lady? Why?"
?Now that the master is gone, do you even dare to bully others?"
The servants didn't mean it that way originally, but they almost knelt down after being told Wanwan.
"Okay, okay, these servants were all my father's servants during his lifetime, and they are all loyal and filial people. What they said is right. Just go back."
After that, Youyou dragged her frail body towards her room.
"Miss!"
Wanwan couldn't help but follow closely.
At the same time, in Xuanyuan Mansion, Xuanyuan Qing has been feeling uneasy. Ever since he went to Ye Mansion a few days ago, Ye Youyou seems to have seen some clues, which makes him very anxious, like an ant on a hot pot, his heartbeat speeds up.
Make yourself feel as if you are suffocating.
"Dad, what's wrong? I see that you have been depressed and irritable since you returned to the house, but what's the matter?"
Xuanyuan Tuoba was also very worried, with his eyebrows twisted into twists.
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm going to the study."
"Tell your mother not to come to me in the study easily. I have something to consider carefully and cannot be disturbed."
Xuanyuan Qing spoke with a serious expression and cold eyes, but Xuanyuan Tuoba smiled and said: "Ah, I understand, father is going to retreat?"
When Xuanyuan Qing heard this, he angrily threw his sleeves and pointed at his nose and cursed: "Why should you shut up? Just now I saw that you still felt sorry for me. I thought you had become more capable and sensible. I didn't expect you were still so stupid. Just remember."
Stay here and don’t allow anyone to come even half a step closer to the study!”
"Understand?"
Then, he strode away angrily.
"I really don't know what evil I did in my previous life to give birth to such a stupid child, ugh..."
After arriving at the study, Xuanyuan Qing immediately started studying ink in front of the desk.
I don't know what he wrote on the paper afterwards, but it can be seen that his expression is very nervous, and his eyes are full of coldness.
Not long after, I dried the finished letter and placed it in a bamboo tube as big as a fingernail...
Because Xuanyuan Qing's study is very special, opening the window leads to the alley behind Xuanyuan Mansion, which is usually quiet and no one passes by.
He put his finger to his mouth and whistled, and suddenly a white eagle flashed across the sky.
"what is that?"
After Xuanyuan Tuoba saw it, he was a little curious as to why the eagle passed by his yard.
"Haitongqing?"
Mrs. Xuanyuan seemed to see something. When she looked again, her heart sank: Haidong Qing was the communication object of Haotian Pavilion, so why did it fall in the master's study room.
After thinking about it, I just wanted to take a look.
Xuanyuan Tuoba took a cold look and immediately shouted loudly: "Mom! Dad said that he has important matters to deal with in the study and no one is allowed to enter."
