Just like last time, Liu Yan walked into the door in the wall and walked through the narrow passage to a secret room.
This time there were many people in the secret room. As he opened the door and came in, everyone looked over.
Liu Yan looked beyond these lines of sight and saw the woman sitting at the table looking at an album.
Qixing also raised his head and met his eyes.
"Master Liu is here." She stood up and said.
There were low murmurs in the room.
"Is this Liu Yan?"
"Liu Yan!"
"It was him who came to Bailou Town last time."
Along with the discussion, the eyes showed surprise and hostility.
Liu Yan didn't care. He walked directly to Qixing and asked, "Have you revealed your identity to Huo Lian? What promise did Huo Lian make to you?"
Qixing nodded and shook his head: "Huo Lian knows my identity, but he didn't make a promise to me."
How could he let her go like this? Let her go to the north? What Liu Yan wanted to say, Qixing spoke first.
"Master Liu, please listen to me first." She said, "This matter has nothing to do with Huo Lian, it is my Momen's business."
After that, he called Chen Shi.
"Tell Mr. Liu the situation of the Great Wall in the north."
Liu Yan saw a dark-skinned young man standing over. The man looked at him with an unkind expression and said, "Little girl, why did you tell him?"
"He and my mother are old acquaintances." Qixing said softly, "After Mr. Liu recognized me, he took good care of me and believed that I, Mo Clan, are not evildoers."
Hearing what she said, Chen Shi's expression softened, and the others also felt relieved, and their eyes looking at Liu Yan became kind.
What does it mean that he believes in Momen? He just believes in Yun Yan. Liu Yan frowned even more, but this was irrelevant and he did not correct it.
Chen Shi no longer hesitated to talk about the condition of the Great Wall in the North over the past few years.
"The Northern Navy has not been able to apply for military funding for repairs, and the Beitang ink craftsmen have also been separated. The few of us who survived have no way to repair it. The northern defenders can only rely on their flesh and blood to fight against the barbarians, causing casualties and injuries.
Tragic." After Chen Shi finished speaking, he sighed, and immediately became excited and excited, "Now that we have a new leader, with an order from the leader, the ink workers will gather together, and we will definitely be able to repair the Great Wall in the North and secure the border defense."
Liu Yan looked solemn: "It is true that you built the Great Wall in the North, but after it was completed, it became an important defense area for the imperial army. Now that you want to repair it, have you reported it to the imperial court?"
Of course there was no such thing, and the atmosphere in the room was stagnant.
"You are breaking the law if you touch the important weapons of the imperial court without reporting them." Liu Yan said, looking at Qixing, "Has the leader thought about the consequences?"
Qixing nodded: "I have thought about it, so I asked Mr. Liu to help me in Momen."
Liu Yan said calmly: "What I can help you is to report it to the court and let your Majesty make a decision."
As soon as he said this, the originally kind eyes in the room suddenly changed and surrounded him like a strong wind.
"The Beihai Navy has been reporting for so long to no avail." Chen Shi gritted his teeth and said coldly, "What does this mean? Mr. Liu, an official, you don't know, right?"
It means that the emperor doesn't care at all.
But if Mr. Mo went to the Northern Navy, the emperor would definitely take care of it immediately.
What is in charge is not the Great Wall of the North, but the collusion between the Northern Navy and the Mohists.
"I knew he was unreliable."
"These officials are not good at all."
Others also sneered.
Mr. Wei looked calm and told everyone not to worry.
"Master Liu has come in. He won't go out until he thinks clearly." He said.
These words were a threat, and Liu Yan's expression remained calm.
Qixing signaled everyone to be quiet, and then said to Liu Yan: "Master Liu, I understand your concerns."
Worry... Liu Yan said in her heart that she only regarded his words as worry, not a threat. The woman's voice continued to come to her ears.
"After the Great Wall of the North is delivered, it becomes the property of the imperial court, but that doesn't mean that we, the Momen, can't take care of it. We, the Momen, believe in integrity and will not abandon the things we make. As long as they are broken, no matter how long it takes, they will still be there.
Warranty.”
"We are not doing this for the imperial court or to gain any credit, but for the hard work and reputation of the ink workers who built it."
"In the eyes of the world, Momen is guilty, but the things built by Momen should not be guilty. Please let them be put to their full use."
"Now that we are burdened with charges, no one is willing to listen to our wishes. We can only ask your Majesty for your enlightenment."
"Even if we want to report it, please do it after we finish building the Great Wall in the North."
At this point, she bowed to Liu Yan, looking calm and fearless.
Liu Yan looked at the girl in front of him and suddenly asked: "What is your name?"
This sudden question made everyone in the room stunned for a moment, and then they became alert and asked the leader's name. Do you really want to file a complaint?
Qixing was not wary at all, but was slightly puzzled. Didn't Liu Yan know her name?
"Seven stars." she said.
Liu Yan looked at her and said, "It's also nine needles."
Qixing looked stunned. He wanted to say something, but seemed to not know what to say for a moment. Liu Yan had already smiled and turned around.
It doesn't really matter what it's called, and there's no need to think of a good name in the first place.
There are rules and regulations, starting from the first and ending at the ninth.
Even if this daughter is not called Jiuzhen, she still practices the Nine Needles way.
In other words, he has inherited her way, condensed her essence, and her ambition will be passed down in the world forever.
Mr. Wei watched Liu Yan walk out, and then saw that Qixing didn't stop him and didn't say anything anymore. His usually calm face seemed a little absent-minded.
What's wrong?
Liu Yan didn't say anything just now, he only said it was nine needles.
What are nine needles?
Code word?
"Miss Qixing." He called.
Following this call, the woman's eyes condensed and returned to their previous state, and she said to Mr. Wei, "There is no need to worry about Mr. Liu."
After saying that, he lowered his head and picked up the seal and put it on the paper on the desk. It was an ink knot with the word "Qixing" in it.
She handed the paper to Wei Dongjia.
"Please inform all the other sects of the sect leader's order."
Mr. Wei stood upright while rocking the wheel, took it with both hands and shouted yes.
Qixing looked at Chen Shi: "Palace Master Chen, the Momen in the North has been separated. Is the old library still there?"
Chen Shi loudly said: "The person is gone, but the library is still there. The drawings of the Great Wall in the North are ready, waiting for the ink workers."
Qixing looked at Chief Meng Xixing again: "Please tell all the Mohists to escort the Mohists from all over the country to the north."
Meng Xi clenched his fists and answered yes.
Qixing looked at a boy again, this was sent by Gao Xiaoliu.
"Tell Xiao Liu to open a treasury and drain all the land in the north."
The young man leaned down and said loudly: "Young master, I will obey the order of the master!"
Shopkeeper Lu watched from the side. He had never seen how the head gave orders back then. At that time, when the Mo Sect was in its prime, there were prosperous Mo Sect places everywhere. Where the head was, countless people came to him.
It's not like the simple secret room like now, with only a few people around.
But he didn't feel sad at all. In front of him, he was like a new bud growing on the ruins. Although it looked thin, it would one day grow into a towering tree, with deeper roots and more luxuriant leaves.
But Qing Pheasant was a little sad.
As night fell, she carefully packed the lady's luggage.
We haven't seen each other for such a long time, and before the joy of the young lady's sudden return has dissipated, the young lady is leaving again, without taking her with her.
Qingzhi paused his hands and looked at Qixing who was sitting aside and looking at the drawings.
"Miss," she called, "just let me go to the north with you, and let Hua Ling and Shopkeeper Lu stay to look after the store."
Before the order from the head of the family spread, the Wei Dong family had already mobilized manpower and personally led the craftsmen from Xitang to the north, including Hualing.
Qing Pheasant and Shopkeeper Lu stayed in the capital to look after the store.
"Hua Ling doesn't know how to embroider." Qixing said, "And it can be said that Linglongfang was built under your own watch. If you stay here, you can run the store very well."
After saying this and waving his hand, Qingzhi hurriedly came over.
Qixing took her hand.
"I know you have always had doubts, thinking that this store is just for a place to stay, not for making money."
Qingzhi nodded, yes, what the lady has done all this time has not been to really open a store, but the lady has always valued this store very much. Even if it is closed in Duchasi, she will let the errand boy come and take care of the business.
"I didn't open this shop to make money, but to be a craftsman." Qixing said, looking down at the hand holding Qing Zhi's, "What I do is what I want to do, and what she wants to do is just a craft.
people."
Qingzhi was confused when he heard this, but he was not too surprised. The young lady had also spoken in such confusion before, saying that she and I were indistinguishable, as if one person had become two people.
"How skillful I am at my craftsmanship, Qing Pheasant knows best." Qixing raised his head and looked at Qing Pheasant and said.
Qingzhi nodded heavily. Yes, she knew it when she was in the Lu family. After leaving the Lu family, she knew even more how many miraculous things the young lady's hands had done.
Qixing shook her hand: "So you are the one who knows Miss best. You should keep an eye on this store until one day..."
How about waiting for one day? Qing Zhi looked at Qixing, and the lady under the lamp had a smile on her face, but she didn't say any more.
Qing Pheasant stopped asking and nodded solemnly.
"Okay, I will keep an eye on this store and wait for the lady to come back!"
