"But only a year later, Emperor Xuan heard a secret report that when the elder brother left the capital, he actually took a child from an outsider's family with him. He also said that he had a child with the female official who escaped during the palace coup. That female official was a nun at Wangji Temple on the outskirts of Beijing. She did not abide by the rules and actually deliberately gave birth to a daughter with the Holy Emperor's grandnephew. Her purpose was to imitate the Holy Emperor in the future and compete with Emperor Xuan for the throne."

"How is this possible? Isn't this fabrication too outrageous?" Brown Yi was dumbfounded and clicked his tongue.

Xue Yi remained silent.

Huang Yi looked at her and said: "When Uncle Qi heard what Monk Yanji said last year, his first reaction was disbelief. 20 years ago, Uncle Qi also heard about the disaster of two brothers of the Wu family who were executed by the whole family, but at that time the government According to the report, all the people in the Wu family's household register have been wiped out, so where is the daughter who wants to compete with Emperor Xuan for the throne?"

"Monk Wei Wei said to Uncle Qi that whether he takes the throne or not has nothing to do with the world, but if the female official really gave the six-coin ginseng to Wu Da, and their daughter really escaped when the whole family was executed, Life, doesn’t Uncle Qi want to find this daughter?”

"When Uncle Qi heard this, he felt itchy and immediately asked, how to find it? The palace is so big and full of women, how to find it? Only then did Monk Wei Wei say that he had no clues and could not find it. However, He could give Uncle Qi an idea: he knew that there was more than one daughter of the Wuhan University who escaped. There was a woman in colorful clothes in the world who liked to cause trouble, named Kujian. He asked Uncle Qi if he had ever heard of it. .Uncle Qi said he had heard of her, she was the girl who wanted to pester Madam Tianyi to become her disciple."

"Monk Yanji said that it is best for the Tianyi Sect to investigate this matter. But if Uncle Qi goes to ask, he will have to tell the whole story clearly. If the secret of the six-coen ginseng beard is exposed, , then Uncle Qi may not be able to get it."

"Monk Yanji said that he had found a way to send a message and called back Pu Jian who had fled to the outer vassal. Pu Jian would definitely let Tianyi Sect search for her sister. However, there is a gap between Pu Jian and Tianyi Sect. They may not be able to talk to each other, but Uncle Qi has an old relationship with Tianyi Sect, and even the Weaver Girl's Golden Needle has been obtained. If Sui Jian needs help in the future, please ask Uncle Qi to help. Monk Yan Wei promised that he will help Sui Jian. After Jian gets the news about that sister, he will tell it to Uncle Qi."

"When Uncle Qi heard this, he nodded in agreement. Then, Uncle Qi asked him curiously, what does this matter have to do with him, and why did he arrange it like this? Monk Wei Wei, Feng Qingyun, smiled lightly and said that it was just his nature He is curious and likes to find out. The more mysterious it is, the more he wants to uncover the truth. After saying that, he walked away and has never returned to Medicine Valley."

The table was quiet for a while, Xue Yi seemed to be deep in thought, and everyone else looked at her eagerly.

Ziyi asked softly: "Sister, how did you guess that Sister Jian's stealing of the golden needle was caused by Uncle Qi's deliberate negligence?"

Xue Yi said: "It's not difficult to guess. When Uncle Qi met the master, he wanted to get the golden needle. The master refused to even show it to him. This is because our master knows that if he shows it to him, the golden needle will not come back. La. In fact, the only thing that can be unscrewed from the end of Weaver's Golden Needle is the seeds of this plant. If they encounter a suitable environment, the seeds will fall off and grow on their own. If not, they will remain like this and will not rot for thousands of years. .”

"Uncle Qi loves planting the most. He knows the key to the Weaver Girl's golden needles and knows how to unscrew them. If you show him, he will definitely use them to cultivate. How can you get the golden needles back? But, the sister in yellow has already Before Monk Weibo went to see Uncle Qi, he had already given the Weaver Girl's golden needle. Logically speaking, he should have planted it a long time ago. Whether it can grow is another question. There is no way the golden needle is still there. As a result, Sister Kuijian was If it was stolen as is, there is no other explanation unless Uncle Qi wanted others to steal the golden needle."

Ziyi opened her eyes wide and said, "It turns out that Weaver Girl's golden needles can be planted. So, eldest sister, can we also..."

"No." Xue Yi glanced at Zi Yi lightly and said, "Isn't Uncle Qi more capable than you? He can't even grow it, but you can grow it?"

Ziyi was stunned for a moment and said to himself: "Yes, why can't he plant it..."

Xueyi said: "Master once told me when he was embroidering the words on the six golden needles. Everything in the world has its most suitable place to grow. The person who found this golden needle once told our master that the Weaver Cactus In fact, it is extremely delicate. It takes a full three years to produce this golden needle, and the rest are ordinary small thorns. And during these three years, if it is disturbed in any way, the Vega Cactus will die."

"So, the seeds of the Vega Cactus seem to have the memory of judging the environment. Unless it is an absolutely safe place, the seeds will not fall off and germinate. In the desert where the Vega Cactus grows, not to mention people, even birds and animals cannot survive there. , a safe place for seeds to remember.”

"Master said that the man accidentally got these six Weaver Girl's Golden Needles because of an adventure, and it was impossible to send them back to the desert. He had no use for them. He heard that our master was very good at making clothes, so he gave them to She. The man told the master not to try to fake the environment to cultivate the Weaver Cactus. After the seeds germinate and find that the environment is not right, they will die because of being deceived. Even for a plant, deception is cruel. "

Ziyi was a little ashamed and lowered his head.

Xue Yi continued: "So, Master embroidered words on those six golden needles, and the seeds were sewn with threads. There must be no sense of safety, and naturally they will never germinate. Uncle Qi is a master of planting, even if he can't unscrew them There are some words on the other end, but there is a silver dot embroidered on the thin round gold piece as big as a grain of rice, which he can always see."

"Uncle Qi doesn't have a thin convex lens, and he doesn't know how to stitch. He can't remove it. Hard cutting will damage the seeds. Therefore, he understood that our master had already taken precautions and didn't want others to plant Weaver Girl's Golden Needles. Since Qi Uncle Qi can't plant it, so why is he still keeping this Weaver Girl's golden needle? It's just that Uncle Qi wants to save face and won't just return it to Huang Yi."

"Obviously, Uncle Qi once showed off to the people in the world that Huang Yi gave the golden needle to Uncle Qi. That monk knew about the friendship between Uncle Qi and our master. He went to Yao Valley to find Uncle Qi just for the sake of First, he laid the groundwork so that Uncle Qi could help Sister Pujian. He must have known about this earlier and deliberately tempted Uncle Qi to feel itchy, so that he would pay attention to Pujian. Later, Sister Pujian came to see me several times, and I Show her the way to ask for the Golden Needle from the Weaver Girl. Monk Yanbi then instructs her to steal it from Uncle Qi. Uncle Qi also met Sister Kujian in his early years, so he would naturally be negligent and let her steal it."

Ziyi suddenly said: "Sister, don't worry, I will never plant it."

Snow-clad jaw.

But Huang Yi asked: "Where did this disgusting monk come from? How can he be so well-informed?"

Lao Che went to take a look at Xue Yi again.

However, Xue Yi said: "I will talk to you in detail about this person when I have the opportunity. It is late today, everyone should rest early. I think that the sisters in Qing Yi and Lan Yi will be back soon."

Sure enough, on the afternoon of the second day, Qing Yi and Lan Yi returned to the courtyard.Brown Yi rushes to tell Lan Yi about Lan Shuo first.

When Lan Yi heard this, she stamped her feet in anger. She confessed to Xue Yi, got on her horse, and headed straight for the Double Sword Alliance.

Qing Yi looked at her back and said with a smile: "I think sister Lan Yi won't have to worry about it much longer. When Mr. Tao comes to visit, someone will help her take care of her brother."

Lao Che said that he didn't want to listen to the young master's business and went to guard the concierge.

All the sisters were anxious to hear Qing Yi's gossip, so they gathered in the main room and sat around to talk.

Brown Yi asked: "Who is Mr. Tao? Tell me quickly, tell me quickly."

Ziyi covered her mouth and smiled: "There is also Mr. Luo, do you want to talk about it first?"

Brown Yi was holding a spatula and was about to knock it, while Zi Yi was busy begging for mercy.

Chiyi helped Ziyi block it, laughing and shouting: "Don't rush to talk about Mr. Luo in advance, I want to listen to Mr. Tao."

Qing Yi asked curiously: "Who is Mr. Luo?"

Huang Yi also interrupted: "I'm not busy, I'm not busy. Mr. Luo is in the neighboring county and can be seen at any time. Please tell me about Mr. Tao first."

Xue Yi sat aside, drinking tea slowly, taking some time to relax.

Qing Yi looked around, his round face full of smiles, and said, "Okay, let me talk first. Following the eldest sister's instructions, Lan Yi and I went to ambush near Cai Jusou's house and waited attentively for a few days. Sure enough, I saw the young master who sent Lan Yi and Chi Yi back from Laoshan."

"We waited for the young master to knock on the door of Cai Jusou's house and call for grandpa, and then we blocked him. The young master was honest and said that his name was Tao Duanping, and he was the eldest grandson of Cai Jusou. The elder sister in blue was Angry, it’s because Mr. Tao deceived her last time and deliberately hid in the teahouse, pretending to come here to investigate too. That Mr. Tao screamed, last time it was clearly the sister in blue who said that he also came to investigate, and That's not what he said."

"Sister in blue carefully recalled the scene of the meeting that night. She admitted that she was wrong. She had a bold temper and immediately apologized. But she still asked, Mr. Tao once said that he stayed here to eavesdrop on the household registration information. , is this sentence true? However, even if it is not the truth, it doesn’t matter. She really broke in here that night. If Mr. Tao wants to trick her into leaving, it is understandable. "

"That Mr. Tao said that from the moment he met the blue-clad sister, he never told a lie. The last time we met at the foot of Laoshan Mountain, the blue-clad sister asked him, but he just didn't answer, and he never told any lies. Originally, he was really afraid of causing trouble to his grandfather and didn't want to expose his true identity, so he didn't dare to tell the truth. The sister in blue never asked him forcibly. But he didn't expect that we could actually come to the door and block him. If so, then he has to say it clearly."

"As soon as the sister in blue heard what Mr. Tao said, she immediately turned into a sullen gourd. I looked at them from the side, neither asking, nor saying anything, just looking at each other. It was almost like they were going to die. I was so anxious, but fortunately, the eldest sister sent me to go with her, otherwise I would have been unable to ask anything, and the sister in blue came back."

When Qing Yi said this, he paused and pursed his lips and smiled.

Xue Yi picked up another tea cup and handed it to Qing Yi. With a smile in her eyes, she said warmly: "Sister Qing Yi, it's been a long time. Come on, have a sip of tea first. You have to tell me in detail, I really want to hear it."

Qing Yi happily took it and drank it in one gulp.He continued very enthusiastically: "Let me speak, Mr. Tao, my eldest sister asked me to ask you, your grandfather was able to return to his hometown to pick chrysanthemums because he used the method of my master Tianyi, so you only met him when you were a child. Only after passing my master can you say that you are an admirer of Madam Tianyi, and you will also try to find out about my Tianyi Sect, right?"

"Master Tao nodded in agreement, but his eyes were only looking at the sister in blue. The sister in blue refused to speak, so I had to ask again: Can you please tell me the details of the old incident? Master Tao said frankly, we already know that he is the Jusou’s grandson, it’s useless for him to hide it, Tianyi Sect can find out anything they want, so it’s better for him to tell us himself.”

"He took us into the teahouse and told us stories about the past: His grandfather was originally the head of the eldest sister's house. However, it was not the one who ordered the massacre 20 years ago, but the one who took over later. That one. The massacre case 20 years ago was quite strange. It was said that the emperor personally ordered the entire family to be executed, but no one has ever seen the imperial edict with their own eyes."

"When the predecessor's office was handing over to Mr. Tao's grandfather, he once revealed a piece of news to him. It was said that the person who came to pass on the emperor's secret order was a Jianghu man. He held the emperor's token, and the predecessor had to believe it, so he immediately ordered all the officers and soldiers. , came to kill people. Although the heads were not counted afterwards, the officers and soldiers who led the team presented the household register, saying that on that day, the two governments were having a banquet together, and everyone was there. Therefore, according to the household register, they were all captured, and all Kill them all."

Xue Yi frowned slightly and murmured: "That day, I should be holding my [-]-day banquet..."

Qing Yi nodded and said: "After the previous Futai executed the massacre case, he was dismissed within a few months and was transferred. The Tao Futai who took over at that time was Mr. Tao's grandfather, now Cai Jusou. He knew this The case was quite strange. Two well-behaved high-ranking families had their entire clan slaughtered in one day. There was neither a declaration of guilt nor an official edict. It was really unjustifiable. After all, they were the descendants of the Holy Emperor and were considered relatives of the emperor. At that time The controversy over matters is fierce and the court cannot suppress it, so a scapegoat must be found."

"The former Futai handed over the things copied by the Wu family to Caijusou. He asked Caijusou for instructions on how to deal with them. Soon, news came, still an oral order, asking Caijusou to burn everything and leave nothing behind. Caijusou The old man was afraid of taking the blame like his predecessor, so he was cautious and saved a small calligraphy written by the Holy Emperor and the household register of the Wu family."

"In the next ten years, Cai Jusou felt that his official career was quite bumpy. He worked hard and fulfilled his official duties, but he was not promoted every time. It was as if he was frozen in this position and could no longer move. Cai Jusou I spent money to inquire about it, and it is said that it seems to be the emperor's intention. In short, it is to let him die in this position for the rest of his life."
