Chapter 109 Conspiracy
"What nonsense are you talking about... If Situ Xiayan wasn't caught and beaten, I would have thought that Liuli Palace was showing mercy." Qin Shuxue was obviously very nervous herself. As she read on, she pretended to be calm to hide her emotions.
However, she soon understood the significance of this letter, because it listed in detail the entire plan of Liuli Palace, which was to bring Situ Xiayan to ruin.
The first one to bear the brunt is that Situ Xiayan will kill a Liuli Palace disciple in the ring tomorrow. That disciple will hide poison on his body, just waiting to be hit and die immediately.
I thought that the Liuli Palace led by a woman would not be so sinister. The Liuli Palace disciples Qin Shuxue met were also very nice. It turned out that no one would be vague about issues involving their own interests. I don't know if this plan was made by the Liuli Palace Master alone, or if all the major sects participated.
Qin Shuxue was a little confused: "But if we investigate, won't we know how he died? This crappy plan is not as detailed as the one I made."
Ying Yong's expression did not improve: "You are wrong. Power is above everything else. Only people without background would go to great lengths to think of a perfect method to commit a crime. They don't need to be too meticulous. As long as it is not exposed, who else do you think will defend Situ Xiayan except us?"
No wonder it is necessary to establish a legal system in modern times. Although crimes continue to occur despite repeated bans, Qin Shuxue has just realized that without laws, ordinary people like them would not have a say at all.
They want justice, they want a good reputation, they want to get away with it, they want it to be as it should be, but they want Situ Xiayan to be condemned by thousands of people and be infamous for eternity. They confuse right and wrong, and ignore right and wrong. Is this human nature?
Since they are so blatant, the best way is to not let Situ Xiayan come from the beginning. Qin Shuxue was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat. She couldn't bear to read the words behind. She grabbed the corner of Ying Yong's clothes and said anxiously: "Let Situ Xiayan admit defeat in the competition tomorrow, or just not go. Let's send her back to the sect!"
Ying Yong quickly comforted them, "They don't know yet that we know the plan. Let's go find the headmaster and ask his opinion, and send Situ Xiayan away at night."
Qin Shuxue nodded with tears in her eyes. She was afraid that she would forget to take out the plan, so she fumbled for a long time and put it into Ying Yong's pocket.
The two of them lost the mood to play and left in a hurry. Ying Yong suddenly pulled Qin Shuxue and said, "I always feel that something is wrong. Who gave us this information? Isn't she from Liuli Palace? Why is she helping us? Is it possible that this is actually... a trap?"
Although Qin Shuxue couldn't figure it out, she felt that no matter how many tricks she had, she would not be able to use them if she stayed away from the trouble. She replied to Ying Yong, "I think it's better to leave first, or we can go and ask the headmaster for his opinion."
The two men hurriedly found Ju Jifeng, who was playing with a jade flute and making sounds of admiration as he played.
Is this leader really reliable? Qin Shuxue looked at Ying Yong in a daze as he saluted, and quickly followed suit. Fortunately, Ju Jifeng didn't care about these red tapes. Although he was obsessed with other things, he still took the time to look at the two of them: "What's wrong with you two?"
No, big brother, please don't use that tone, it makes you sound like my instructor.
Ying Yong recounted what had happened in detail, but his words were encrypted using a magic weapon. Qin Shuxue couldn't hear a word and could only stand there anxiously.
Ju Jifeng's expression changed. It was mainly about power. No other sect could compare to Chongyun Sect. What should these sects do to be united against the outside world, without even one person who had a different intention? If this goes on, wouldn't Chongyun Sect be tortured into confessing? He immediately showed some anger on his face, but because he doubted the source of the information, he didn't say anything, but kept knocking on his forehead with his hand.
"Like this. You guys pretend to send her away first, and I'll leave her alone and then quietly leave. It's okay if someone tries to stop you."
Ying Yong just handed the magic weapon to Qin Shuxue and asked her to listen to it. Although doing so would make the Chongyun Sect seem guilty, it seemed that Ju Jifeng wanted to take full responsibility. It would depend on whether other sects were willing to let him go. If they were determined to kill Situ Xiayan, then everything they did would be in vain.
The two nodded and went to find Situ Xiayan with heavy hearts.
At this time, Ying Yong was not in the mood to talk about love. After all, Chongyun Sect was like a talent selection place for their royal family. Although Situ Xiayan could not show up in public, it was also good for her to come here to be a secret guard. He was unwilling to lose such a master. People from other sects were prone to treason, and they did not know Chongyun Sect well enough, so he did not dare to take the risk.
Situ Xiayan was still reading leisurely. Qin Shuxue thought about it and didn't tell Yu Feiling. She had a hunch that this person was up to no good, so she dragged Situ Xiayan away while she was away.
"What's wrong?" Situ Xiayan was puzzled and was pulled out of the door by Qin Shuxue. She saw Ying Yong and Heng Li standing there. She felt as if something bad was going to happen.
Qin Shuxue whispered to her, and Situ Xiayan's expression became worse and worse. She stiffened her neck and said unconvincedly: "I killed him before he took the poison."
"Okay, stop talking angry words. The most important thing is to stay alive." Qin Shuxue quickly calmed her down and pretended not to see Situ Xiayan's slightly red eyes.
Although Situ Xiayan was sad, she still felt warm in her heart. Her family had no ability to protect her, so she could only rely on everyone in Chongyun Sect. It would be a lie to say that she was not moved that the Sect Master cared so much about her.
Situ Xiayan discussed the time with everyone, and in order to pretend that nothing had happened, they went to the cafeteria to eat together. A rich menu was specially set up to welcome the various sects, but in the eyes of everyone, it was just a way to please other sects to join forces to attack Chongyun Sect. No one could eat it, and they all felt very disgusted.
Qin Shuxue picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks and put it into Hengli's bowl. She smiled and said, "Try the dishes from Liuli Palace. Learn a few dishes and cook them for me."
Aren't you good at acting? Act now, why don't you act now? The ground is full of people from Liuli Palace, you can't look at people with such angry eyes! Qin Shuxue almost wanted to cry, why do you have to be on guard against everyone wherever you go? Being a spy is better than this.
Heng Li pretended to taste it, then hummed and said, "This dish tastes extraordinary. I also liked it the most when I came to Liuli Palace the last few times. But I'm afraid they won't give us the secret recipe. You can pack some when you go back, or we can come back anytime you want. Do you think this is okay?"
