Chapter 887: Paying Off
Wei Youqing was stunned, and immediately understood who Mi Li'er was talking about "Ye Jietuo". His eyes became even colder, and he sneered:
"So what? Does it matter who wins and who loses? Isn't it important that Li Xuan defeated Zhu Liang? ”
Mi Li'er sighed and said, "But it's a generation late." My Zhu Xie family was originally a relative of the Li royal family and a trusted person of the emperor, but because of this failure, I lost control of the patrol department, and my grandfather lost his life. Later, the patrol division went its own way, and its strength was worse day by day. ”
Wei Youqing sneered disapprenousively: "So you have your eyes on the Ye family." ”
"The Ye family?" Mi Li'er's brows were slightly raised, revealing a mocking smile, "You are wrong, Youqing, there is no one in the Ye family for a long time." ”
Wei Youqing raised her eyebrows, understanding the meaning of his words. Shi Wen'er is Ye Qiguang, and Ye Qiguang is the person on Li Xuan's must-kill list. If the secret of Shi Wen'er is Ye Qiguang is revealed, people will continue to die.
Mi Li'er's words are a kind reminder that Shi Wen'er is just Shi Wen'er, a person who was killed by people for revenge in order to eliminate the Persian pirates, and now His Majesty has made the decision to redress his grievances.
Shi Wen'er is the long history of King Yun's Mansion, the elder brother of Princess Yun, and the chief treasurer of Pin Tingju...... Shi Wen'er is still the father of Hou Wei Youqing in Jiangnan, and even His Majesty today has to call him "uncle".
In a word, as long as Shi Wen'er is just Shi Wen'er, those close people around him will continue to have glory and wealth in Li Xuan's dynasty, and Pearl Island will continue to prosper.
Wei Youqing sighed softly in his heart, understanding that his father-in-law's death could not be put on the official face no matter what, and he could not even mention it in private.
He glared at Mi Li'er hatefully and sneered, "Why are you here today?" What is the sin of leaving his post without permission as a soldier? Although I have never been to Hedong Town, I know that this must not be Hedong. ”
Mi Li'er glanced at Wei Youqing with a strange expression, and asked strangely, "Are you on Pearl Island these days?" Didn't anyone show you the newspaper? The Praetorian Guards had already been transferred back to Luoyang from Hedong Town. ”
Wei Youqing glanced at Mi Li'er in surprise, and then looked at the vast yellow sand outside, and had a strange thought in his heart. I only stayed in the Ice and Fire Realm for one day, but one day in the sky and one year underground......
It's just that Wei Youqing, the person in front of him, really couldn't believe it, he asked with a smile, "Is that so?" So where did Guanlan go? ”
Mi Li'er said: "Guanlan wants to stay in Hedong Town, Your Majesty is approved." He glanced at Wei Youqing strangely, his eyes narrowed, "Not only did you not read the Di newspaper, but you didn't even read your son's letter?" Mi Li'er hesitated, "Do you know anything else?" ”
Wei Youqing "chuckled" in her heart for no reason, and had a bad premonition. He actually left Pearl Island for a full year at such a delicate time of danger. Hua Shengze also arrived in the Ice and Fire Realm, although he should have no worries about his life, but he didn't know if he could return to Pearl Island.
Wei Youqing glanced at the person in front of him, he knew that this commander of Shen Chengwei had many methods that he didn't know, and he also knew secrets that many other people didn't know.
If it had been placed in the past, Wei Youqing would not have expected Mi Li'er to help him, but now Mi Li'er owes himself. And Mi Li'er took the initiative to mention the past, and it seemed that he was deliberately coming to repay his account.
Wei Youqing said honestly: "I have encountered some things in the cultivation world this year, and I can't help myself. Did something happen? ”
Mi Li'er glanced at Wei Youqing with compassion and said, "Youqing, your wife ......"
Wei Youqing suddenly felt her heart and liver tremble, "What's wrong with Tao Yao?" She, she must have given birth, right? Wei Youqing's heart kept sinking, her uncontrollable voice trembled, and when she thought of An Lan again, her bowels turned blue with regret, "Is An Lan okay?" ”
Seeing that Wei Youqing was so nervous, Mi Li'er eased her tone, and first said something that reassured Wei Youqing, "An Lan wants to study, and Lord Yun will take him to Guangzhou." ”
Wei Youqing exhaled softly, and listened to Mi Li'er continue: "Tao Yao her, she is gone, it has been nearly a year now, and she has not seen anyone alive or dead. ”
Wei Youqing's face suddenly turned pale, and he stood up and walked out of the door in a daze. Mi Li'er followed closely behind him, and was about to say something, Wei Youqing suddenly turned around and said to Mi Li'er:
"Mi Li'er, you're waiting for me here, just to tell me this kind of news? You know what happened to Tao Yao, right? ”
Mi Li'er sighed: "That's natural, it's just that you're running too fast......" Seeing Wei Youqing's face gloomy again, Mi Li'er shut up with interest, stretched out his right hand, and as if he was juggling, a small round compass appeared in his palm.
This compass is very simple, the plate is carved with ancient patterns, the center of the disk is a scarlet gem, the gem is not bright, it looks a little dull, and the surrounding of the disk is slightly blackened due to a long time.
Wei Youqing guessed that this kind of compass should be that kind of life chart, which can determine the direction and count life and death.
Mi Li'er turned the compass, it turned out that the compass was divided into two circles, inside and outside, and Mi Li'er was now rotating the outer circle. There is a small faint hand on the outer ring, and when the hand points to the ruby, the rice grain stops.
Wei Youqing looked at Mi Li'er silently, knowing that he was deducing calculations. Looking at the man in front of him who was as cold and hard as a stone, Wei Youqing found for the first time that there was also a fire-like enthusiasm in this person's ice-like eyes.
"Youqing, I can only tell you that Tao Yao is still alive."
This sentence was enough, and Wei Youqing was suddenly overjoyed like a child. With tears in his eyes, he held Mi Li'er's hand and said in a trembling voice: "Tao Yao is still alive?" That's great...... Where is she? With whom? ”
Wei Youqing was excited, and almost said a question in his heart, where is Hua Ciyang? But then he thought that Hua Ciyang was a person with unknown whereabouts in the official family book, and immediately swallowed this sentence back.
Wei Youqing was still thinking about Ru Xin, Mrs. Hua, and Brother Yi...... Although they don't live in the temple, they can't just watch things happen to the temple. can think that Hua Shengze is gone, and their most important thing is naturally to find Hua Shengze, so they put these people down.
Mi Li'er looked at Wei Youqing with some embarrassment, and tried to turn the compass again, he walked back to the desk, ordered someone to remove the table aside, and took out a pair of fishbone cards, and put strange shapes on the desk.
After a long time, with a crisp sound, the two chess pieces in the fishball actually collided together. Mi Li'er shook her head lightly and sighed, "Youqing, I really can't launch a very specific location, I can only tell you that she is in the south." ”
