In autumn, the moonlight is slightly cool, and the red maples in the north have a wandering sadness at night. The Oriental Kite sits alone under the tree, its downcast gaze is like an obscure poem, complex and poignant.
At the beginning of the long night, with the moon above the branches, the footsteps near my ears were getting closer. The Oriental Kite turned its head slightly, and a green and black cloak came into view.
Dongfang Yuan saw the person coming clearly and just nodded coldly without saying anything more.
Lu Hanjiang didn't say anything, tightened his cloak slightly, and then handed over the wine gourd in his hand. Dongfang Yuan frowned slightly: "What does this mean, Gang Leader Lu?"
"It's getting cold. Oriental girls, why not drink some to warm yourself up." Lu Hanjiang smiled like a good person.
Dongfang Yuan shook his head: "I appreciate the gang leader's kindness."
As she said that, she glanced at Lu Hanjiang, who was wrapped in a light cloak, and her eyes moved slightly: "I don't like drinking, Gang Leader Lu can use it for himself."
The season has entered autumn, and the evening wind in the north is naturally colder than in the south. It is strange to say that they are all martial arts practitioners, and the martial arts of the Beggar Clan is still a typical example of martial arts from the outside in. Lu Shiqi can be selected as
The gang leader must be a top-notch expert, why is he so afraid of the cold?
However, Lu Hanjiang bent down and placed the gourd at Dongfang Yuan's feet, and asked as if unintentionally: "This time I went north to Xuehua Palace to eliminate evil, Miss Dongfang is willing to help me. I am very grateful. I wonder what the girl will have in the future."
Intend?"
Dongfang Yuan felt a little awkward about Lu Hanjiang's uninvited visit. She was silent for a long time and then said: "Gang Leader Lu took care of his late father's funeral. I will repay this kindness properly. When the Xuehua Palace is destroyed, you and I will be inseparable."
owe."
Lu Hanjiang took off the water bag from his waist, drank a sip of hot water, and after taking a breath, he said, "I'm sorry for my bold guess, but Miss Dongfang is planning to take revenge?"
The two of them had only met each other a few times, and they were neither relatives nor friends. It was naturally extremely rude for Lu Hanjiang to speak like this. Dongfang Yuan's expression gradually turned cold: "So what."
Lu Hanjiang looked unaware and continued, "I'm just afraid that the girl accidentally went astray."
Glancing at Lu Hanjiang's very rich attire, it seemed as if he thought of something bad. Dongfang Yuan's cold expression was vaguely mocking: "What's your advice, Gang Leader Lu?"
Lu Hanjiang didn't care about the hostility of the other party, and just said lightly: "Does Miss Dongfang know that your father is working for the nobles in the court?"
choke--!
A ray of silver light exploded under the night cover, and the silver hook Dongfang Yuan held in her right hand was firmly pressed against Lu Hanjiang's throat. She squatted down like a cheetah ready to attack.
The place where the two of them were was a little far away from everyone in the Beggar Clan, and no one noticed what was happening here. Dongfang Yuan's pair of beautiful eyes looked extremely bright under the moonlight, and the murderous intention contained in them was constantly spreading.
Lu Hanjiang didn't care at all about the sharp blade that was just a few feet away, but continued to talk to himself: "It seems that the girl knows, then do you know why the Dongfang family is in disaster this time?"
Dongfang Yuan asked coldly: "Why?"
Lu Hanjiang slowly drank a sip of hot water and said slowly and unhurriedly: "Miss Dongfang, why don't you think about how long the Jinyiwei has been looking for you since the Dongfang family was defeated twenty years ago? How many times have they dealt with you? 2
How can something that has made no progress in ten years be able to uproot you overnight?"
Dongfang Yuan looked solemn. What Lu Hanjiang said was something she had doubts about. The Dongfang family had been hiding for twenty years. They didn’t dare to expect to hide forever, but they wouldn’t have been killed by the Jin Yiwei at the door without noticing.
Her father is not such a careless person.
Seeing that Dongfang Yuan's attitude had softened, Lu Hanjiang struck while the iron was hot: "It seems that the girl already knows what's going on, so let me speak frankly. The one who killed your father was not the Jin Yiwei."
"How can I believe it based on your words?"
Dongfang Yuan stood up neatly. Although his voice was cold, the silver hook had already returned to its sheath.
Lu Hanjiang sneered: "Young lady, haven't you always believed my son's words? On that day, there was no one alive in Magnolia Villa except me. Naturally, everyone believed whatever I said."
Dongfang Yuan's face became increasingly gloomy: "What exactly do you want to say?"
Sighing, Lu Hanjiang shrugged and said, "Girl, you should have guessed a long time ago. If the Jin Yiwei had already figured out the details of the Dongfang family, how could they have allowed you to continue to roam freely in the world for twenty years -
Oh, of course they are not the ones who want to kill people."
A few guesses flashed through her mind, and Dongfang Yuan gritted her teeth: "Impossible. My late father has always been able to recognize people. It is absolutely impossible for the person he chose to make..."
"Absolutely impossible?" Lu Hanjiang chuckled and looked at Dongfang Yuan with pity: "Why is the girl so naive? For the sake of the family, what a Jianghu man has done is more than unspeakable. That noble man is in the temple and is so high up.
, you are just a prop in her hand, useless, so why would it be strange to throw it away casually."
Dongfang Yuan glared angrily, opened her mouth but found that she couldn't even say a word in rebuttal.
Lu Hanjiang narrowed his eyes and said softly: "Now that things have happened, why do you still need to deceive yourself? The Dongfang family relied on that highness to escape the disaster. Apart from her, who else can know you so well? Let me tell you straight.
Well, the people who attacked and killed Magnolia Villa that day were the people of Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess."
"..."
Dongfang Yuan gritted her silver teeth. She had been gifted since she was a child. She was valued and taught by her father, and she secretly did a lot of things for the family. Therefore, she had long known about the relationship between the family and the Crown Princess. At that time, she felt that the Jianghu family was meddling with the imperial court.
The matter is to seek skin from a tiger, but Dongfang Huang has made up his mind, and not even her daughter's family can stop it.

They have been hiding for many years, and even had to give up their family name. She was always worried that the Crown Princess would burn bridges by crossing the river. After all, after the Dongfang family was exterminated for assassinating the former Crown Prince, their family seemed to have completed its mission.
Dongfang Huang was also secretive in his work. Dongfang Yuan had no idea that the Dongfang family was raising five hundred masters. In her eyes, the family was hiding like mice. And with such a secret, it was not surprising that the Crown Princess would kill her.
Seeing Dongfang Yuan's expression changing several times, with a look of struggle in his eyes, Lu Hanjiang felt slightly reassured. He bent down and picked up the wine gourd at his feet and handed it to him: "Although drinking to relieve sorrow is nothing to reality.
It has no real effect, but it can make you feel better."
Dongfang Yuan subconsciously took the drink, but she still acted coldly and calmly. Lu Hanjiang came slightly closer and whispered in her ear: "The hatred of destroying the family...Miss Dongfang, don't you want to take revenge?"
?”
Dongfang Yuan stared at him quietly, then suddenly pulled out the sieve of the gourd, raised his head and took a big sip of wine.
"Cough, cough..."
Under the stimulation of alcohol, Dongfang Yuan's face quickly turned red, and her eyes that were originally lifeless seemed to have a faint flame beating at this moment.
"She is a high-ranking crown princess, and I am just a simple person in the world. Revenge is not easy."
Although the words were dejected, Dongfang Yuan was no longer as indifferent as before, but instead had the momentum to explode in silence.
Lu Hanjiang's eyebrows curved like crescent moons: "It's good if the girl has this intention. I will naturally find a way."
Dongfang Yuan stared at him intently and said, "If you are just the leader of the Beggar Clan, how could you possibly know these secret things? Lu Qiqi, who are you?"
"Why should the Oriental girl ask questions knowingly? Who else dares to be the enemy of the Crown Princess?" Lu Hanjiang said.
"You are Jin Yiwei." Dongfang Yuan's eyes were focused and his tone was determined.
Lu Hanjiang smiled slightly: "I wonder if Dongfang girl has heard of the name Xiaoyao Sect Yue Lifeng?"
