Chapter 860: Everything is a Conspiracy
This is the divine water from the mountaintop. Every villager who comes to the temple for peace will drink a small cup of it, seeking the protection of the goddess.">Xiao Yu's heart skipped a beat, sh..."Secret Passage!"
Both exclaimed almost simultaneously!
Then Qian Tingxuan went to the palace to consult with the emperor.
Xiao Yuge decided to go to Qianji Pavilion to ask Ye Wuhuan for help in finding the Grand Tutor. She always felt that even if the Grand Tutor used secret passages to escape, it would be almost impossible to take so many people out of the city. Unless there was an inside man at the city gate, her people were limited, but almost everyone in Qianji Pavilion had knowledge of every mechanism. With Ye Wuhuan's help, things should go twice as fast.
Just as Xiao Yuge left Qianji Pavilion and was about to return home, she suddenly saw a familiar figure dashing past. Without much thought, she leaped after it!
As she arrived in a deserted place, she quickened her pace and flashed before the man, blocking his path!
"It's really you!" Looking at the person in front of her, Xiao Yu Ge shook her head sadly. She never thought it would actually be her!
"Looks like you know everything now." The newcomer casually tossed last year's ceremonial hat aside, and it was none other than Lu Xiangwan!
"From our first meeting, these past few months, I've treated you well, and considered you a true friend. But I never expected that you would deceive me for so long." Xiao Yuge looked at her, her eyes filled with more regret than anger. She didn't make friends easily, but once she did, she was truly devoted. Lu Xiangwan had indeed made her sad.
Lu Xiangwan pursed her lips: "You and I serve different masters, I have no choice..." Perhaps in the past few months of getting along, even if she tried to get close, she also had some feelings for Xiao Yuge.
"So, it was all a game from the beginning, wasn't it" Xiao Yu Ge also felt relieved. Since they couldn't be friends, then let them be enemies: "But I'm curious, the day we met, I hadn't even decided which mountain to go to for herbs myself, how did you know"
After thinking for a moment, I suddenly understood and laughed: "You have people at all four city gates. So no matter which palace gate I leave from, you can precisely track my whereabouts. What a brilliant plan!"
"...." Lu Xiangwan didn't speak, as if she had acquiesced to her words.
"You went to such lengths to get close to me, it couldn't just be because of Qing Luo and Xiao Yu Fu, could it Your biggest target is me, isn't it" Putting together all the previous speculations, Xiao Yu Ge might have already guessed something.
"Yes, you are the lucky one. That's why from the beginning, my target was always you!" Lu Xiwan also admitted it frankly.
"I just don't understand, you had plenty of opportunities to take me down secretly. Why didn't you" Xiao Yuge looked straight at her, equally puzzled. After all this time, she had been by his side, and he had never guarded against her. Why hadn't she made a move
Lu Xiangwan pursed her lips and said nothing.
"You know I once doubted you, but thinking about everything we've been through, I dismissed all my suspicions. A person who would risk their life to save me, no matter what her motives were for approaching me, I would consider her a friend. But you absolutely shouldn't touch my Qingluo!" Xiao Yuge wasn't without his doubts, but in the end, he chose to believe her.
"I'm approaching you for this very day!" Lu Xiwan had a complicated expression. This was also the reason she never attacked Xiao Yuge, because Xiao Yuge had once saved her life as well.
"No beating around the bush! You brought me here today for more than just to expose you, right Come on, tell me where Qing Luo and the others are" Since she was already here, Xiao Yuge didn't have time to be cautious anymore.
"If you want to see them, just follow them!" At that moment, Lu Xiangwan gently patted her side, and two people walked out.
Xiao Yu's song glanced at the two, a slight upturn of her lips: "Do you think they could take me away" Not to mention just the two of them, even if Lu Xiangwan was added, she wouldn't necessarily be their opponent.
"My lady, I urge you to cooperate for Qing Luo's sake. After all, by the time calculation, it has already been a day, and her blood should be nearly drained!"
"What did you say You actually dare to hurt my Qingluo!" Xiao Yuge was instantly furious after hearing that. It was fine if they hurt her, but hurting her Qingluo was absolutely unacceptable! Her figure flashed, and in a blink of an eye, she appeared before Lu Xiangwan!
Lu Xiangwan was startled and immediately tried to block, but how could she be a match for Xiao Yuge who was enraged In just a few rounds, Xiao Yuge choked her by the neck!
"Take me to see Qing Luo!" If anything happens to Qing Luo, she will make the Grand Master and Lu Xiangwan pay!
Lu Xiangwan was choked until her eyes bulged, and the two subordinates beside her didn't dare to step forward rashly. They could only stand anxiously by, perhaps knowing that even Miss Lu wasn't her opponent. If they attacked, it would be useless.
"Miss, if I die, you will never know where Qingluo is!"
Xiao Yuge gritted her teeth, her eyes turned cold, and with a sudden flick of her hand, Lu Xiangwan was flung out, crashing heavily to the ground!
"If anything happens to my Qingluo, I will make you all pay with your lives!" Even if she had to dig three feet into the ground, she would make them pay the price!
"Then, let's go with them!" Lu Xiangwan panted heavily. She had always known that Qing Luo was Xiao Yu Ge's weakness. Grabbing Qing Luo meant grabbing Xiao Yu Ge. This was a risky move, but also a winning one.
"If Qian Tingxuan finds out I'm gone, do you think you can stop him" Xiao Yuge snorted coldly.
Lu Xiangwan gritted her teeth and stood up, smiling faintly: "Although the Dragon God's Skill of Your Highness is powerful, rest assured, my lady, Your Highness won't find out that you are gone."
Xiao Yu Ge slightly furrowed her brows, as if she had understood: "You want to disguise yourself as me to hold him back"
"My lady, I've been by your side for so long, I understand your every word and deed perfectly. No one would suspect a thing, nor would the king!" Lu Xiangwan was quite confident. She had been observing Xiao Yuge's words and actions, she was confident she could play her well. As long as they got through tonight, her foster father's plan would be successful. So all she had to do was deceive Qian Tingxuan tonight.
After hearing Xiao Yu's song, she couldn't help but laugh: "Lu Xiangwan, oh no, I should call you Miss Ye."
"You actually guessed my identity I truly underestimated you!" Lu Xiangwan was slightly surprised.
"To make the real Lu Xiangwan lose all her memories and her martial arts, and to switch identities with you, in order to gain my trust. This move is indeed brilliant. Even if I were more capable, I wouldn't suspect your identity." It's a pity they overlooked one thing: she knows medicine, and she can help the real Lu Xiangwan recover her memories and martial arts.
"It's too late for you to know now." Lu Xiangwan no longer concealed her identity; she was the true adopted daughter of the Grand Tutor, Ye Lin!
"How do you know it's late now" Xiao Yuge raised an eyebrow, full of confusion. "I just don't understand why you went to such great lengths."ed his earlier disheveled appearance and said in a serious manner."You, you, you!" The Emperor almost choked when he heard this: "You are a member of the imperial family, the carefree King of our Lan...
