The degree of elegance Chapter 24: The mountain of hairdoves, Jingwei fills the sea

The purpose of arresting Wednesday was to complete the task assigned by the sect, and in the end, it was necessary to inform the court of the relevant situation.

Therefore, Su Mu felt that it was not a big deal to hand these people over to the imperial court directly. They could just use this to end the matter and return to Shushan.

As for Zhao Zhitang's concern about whether Yu Zun might also be colluding with some officials in the DPRK to collude with a cult, that should be impossible.

This impossibility was naturally not what Su Mu said. He did not have the confidence to say such a thing.

It was Mo Qianyu who said this. In Mo Qianyu's view, as early as when they planned Zhuang Ance to involve the eldest princess in Anlingyi, their plan to arrest Wednesday was probably known to the eldest princess.

"Your Highness ordered me to tell you that Zhuang Ance has escaped in Anlingyi, and Wu Xuan is dead."

Yu Zun ordered the generals to take Wednesday and the others into custody.

"Dead?"

Su Mu frowned and asked, "How did you die?"

"Wu Xuan's body was obtained from his apprentice Wu Yan,"

Yu Zun said seriously: "Wu Yan used his teacher's corpse as a guide and was able to escape. After investigation, it was found that Wu Xuan died from his own Nightmare Curse Killing Technique."

Uh...what a great master-disciple relationship.

"Fairy Mo,"

At the end, Yu Zun looked at Mo Qianyu and saluted: "His Highness said that I have not seen you for many years and miss you very much. I hope you can come to the palace to talk."

"Is this her order?"

"Of course not."

"Since it's not the case, then it won't be convenient for me to go."

Yu Zun was stunned immediately.

Seeing his troubled expression, Mo Qianyu thought that the general was just sending a message, so he softened his tone slightly and said, "As far as I know, the palace is not a place to reminisce about the past."

"What does Fairy Mo mean?"

Mo Qianyu's expression was still as indifferent as snow-capped plums, "General, please tell her that if she really wants to reminisce about the past, she can wait for me at No. 127 Douhua Lane tomorrow."

"Okay," although Yu Zun thought this location was very strange, he didn't ask so many questions.

...

The next day's Chaoge performed, and there was a bit of coolness in the air.

The collapse of the teahouse did not cause much ripples in the city.

There was only a rumor among the people that bandits made trouble last night, and the Kyoto government officials sent out to fight with the thieves. There was no other theory.

Among the bustling streets and alleys in Chaoge Outer City, a relatively remote alley was drowned in the noise.

Mo Qianyu today wore a very elegant and simple dress, her hair was casually let down, with only a simple blue hairpin on her head.

"You don't know that this store has changed its owner a long time ago, and now it sells Teppanyaki," thick smoke and smoke emanated from the store behind the eldest princess. She stood under such inspection,

Wearing an underskirt worn by ordinary people, she doesn't have any airs or temperament of a princess.

If Su Mu were here, he would be somewhat surprised. The eldest princess at this moment simply looks like a village girl, without any elegance.

Mo Qianyu was very satisfied with what she was wearing today and said in a little girl's tone: "I'm not like you who have always lived in this prosperous place and know everything, even if a touhua fish shop in a remote alley goes out of business.

Know."

"Keluo, are you making insinuations?"

The eldest princess smiled and approached Mo Qianyu and said, "A new bean curd rice noodle shop opened not far away, and it's also very good."

Mo Qianyu did not reject the order she mentioned, nor did he object to the eldest princess taking her arm. He just said, "No matter how many insinuations I make, you can still hear it."

The girl used chopsticks to stir the small bowl of bean curd rice noodles in front of her evenly, then picked up a large piece and put it into her mouth. After tasting it for a while, she felt that it was very good.

"Why did you let Zhuang Ance go on purpose?"

The place where they ate was not in the private room, but close to a small window. The breeze blew through the window, but it could not take away Mo Qianyu's questions.

The eldest princess's eyes were very beautiful, and she seemed to be very honest, "He went to Shushan with the emperor's decree. I can't arrest him directly."

"If you had arrested him in that environment last night, there would have been enough reasons," Mo Qianyu said calmly.

The eldest princess took the peas out of the bowl and put them into Mo Qianyu's bowl. She knew that she had liked to eat them since she was a child. Although they hadn't seen each other for a long time, she still remembered, "Don't you also want to know what Zhuang Ance and Xilin are plotting?"

"You can find out if you catch him."

"But there's no way of knowing how many people are hiding behind him."

"I don't want to know now."

"It's not because Zhuang Ance has murderous intentions towards you, but because he has murderous intentions towards Su Mu, so you don't want to know, do you?" The eldest princess looked at her with a half-smile.

Mo Qianyu lowered his head and ate rice noodles and said, "It doesn't matter, I will take action this time."

"Gluoluo,"

The eldest princess laughed out loud, "I really didn't expect that Fairy Mo, who has the Dongyou Dharma Eye, would sometimes avoid other people's eyes."

In this regard, Mo Qianyu did not answer directly, but said: "You always like to take things that have nothing to do with you and put them on your shoulders."

"Did I?"

Of course the eldest princess understood what Mo Qianyu wanted to express, and said: "I am in the royal family, how can it have nothing to do with me?"

Mo Qianyu looked at her in trance, and said with a hint of persuasion: "I am glad that I went to Shushan, and you are still glad that you did not return to the fiefdom."

You could have left, but you chose to stay in Chaoge in the center of the whirlpool.

This is what Mo Qianyu wanted to express.

The eldest princess understood and fell silent. She didn't know how much time had passed before she slowly said: "So what if you went to Shushan? You are still destined to never be able to become the little girl in this alley. You are destined to bear the responsibility.

Is it missing?"

Whether it's Chaoge or her fiefdom, it's the same.

The corners of Mo Qianyu's eyes drooped slightly. She felt that she had done nothing in vain again. She decided not to continue this topic, "Since you took Wednesday away, you don't need to tell us anything if you ask. We have completed the tasks assigned by the sect.

We will return to Shushan soon."

"I don't think I can do what you want,"

The eldest princess looked at Mo Qianyu with a smile and said, "A few days later, the three major sect generals headed by Mo Sect will gather at Fajiu Mountain. Don't you want to go?"

"Fajiu Mountain?"

Mo Qianyu was slightly surprised. This mountain is located in the north of Chaoge. There are many eucalyptus trees growing on this mountain, which is the source of Zhang River. Maybe there is nothing special about it, and it is not easy for people to remember this mountain.

However, there is another bird on Fajiu Mountain with a white beak and red feet, called the Jingwei.

Yes, Jingwei, the daughter of Emperor Yan.

The story of Jingwei's reclamation of the sea is well known to everyone. According to legend, the battle between Gonggong and Zhurong caused the Tianzhu Mountain to collapse, causing the land to sink to the southeast, and the water of Guixu poured out. The Kyushu continent ushered in another major disaster from the Innate God War.

Emperor Yan's daughter Jingwei filled the sea with rocks in her hands to stop the water flowing back to the ruins, but Jingwei stayed in the depths of the East China Sea forever.

But not long after, a bird appeared on Fajiu Mountain where Jingwei lived. When they sang, their voices sounded like they were chanting Jingwei's name, so they were called Jingwei birds.
