"Oh, is that?" Xu Yungui asked curiously.

"Of course, that's the case." Niantong said.

"Xingfen's death... do you need an explanation for his brother?"

"It has nothing to do with me at this time, so why should I explain it? I mentioned everything I should say in my letter. Xing Buren died, and I was also very sad."

"How do you prove that what you said to me is true?" Xu Yungui asked.

Niantong frowned and said, "If you insist on not believing, you can announce it to the public. I, Niantong, will be your Hongxiu Villa from now on."

Xu Yungui raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little surprised that she would say so.

"That's what you said, but how do I know if you have colluded with those people?"

"Without collusion, wouldn't you know what they react at that time?" Niantong was confident about this. Except for Qu Yiran, she didn't tell anyone that those people would definitely regard her as an enemy and a traitor. In this way, the people of Hongxiu Villa will dispel some doubts about her, and she will act better. "What's more, you don't need to doubt people, and you don't have to use people. This is the truth that the owner of your dignified Hongxiu Villa should know more than me, a little girl?"

Xu Yungui nodded: "Yes, you are right. You don't need to doubt people. If you use them, then as you said, I will appoint you as the right deputy envoy of Hongxiu Villa."

"Right Deputy Envoy?! Isn't that Yu Chen?" Nian Tong asked in surprise.

"He has not made any contribution in Kunlun, and he is not capable of himself. Now he has abdicated and given up the wise. I believe you are the candidate with this strength." Xu Yungui said.

"Then, as the right deputy envoy of Hongxiu Villa, am I qualified to ask the owner of the manor a question?" Niantong said.

Xu Yungui nodded and expressed his approval.

"Do you know someone named Hongxiang?"

"I don't know." Xu Yungui said.

Niantong looked at his expression and didn't seem to be lying. She was a little confused, but continued, "Then, do you recognize the person with the surname Qu? Well...especially, a man."

"The surname is Qu?" Xu Yungui didn't ask Niantong why he asked these questions. He really thought about it very seriously, "I was the owner of the Hongxiu Villa ten years ago. Over the years, I really don't remember a disciple with the surname Qu. Why, what do you ask about this, is it important?"

Niantong said: "It's not very important, if you can think about it, tell me if you can't remember it, then forget it."

Niantong thought to herself that since the "Hongxiang Notes" written by Qu Yiran's mother Hongxiang will be here, Qu Yiran's father will have some connection with Hongxiu Villa. She saw that Xu Yungui was reasonable in some things, so she asked him.

"Well, I have another thing to tell you to do."

"What?" Niantong asked.

"Mu Yun was originally Yu Chen's subordinate, and now he is dispatched to you. He is now developing a poison. Although you don't understand medical principles, you can occasionally see him and report to me how he has refined it."

"Mu Yun?" Nian Tong said in surprise, poison...

Could it be that it has something to do with Ashkun's blood?

Niantong asked: "Can the owner tell me what kind of medicine is that poison, and he pays so much attention to it?"

"Xiyan poison." Xu Yungui said.

......

Niantong walked towards the Pill Palace in silence. What Xu Yungui said made her suffocate, but she tried to be calm in front of him so that he would not see any flaws.

Xiyan poison, it was clearly developed for a long time, and Tang Xi was also infected with this poison. It was she who got the medicine from Yun Weichen that detoxified him. Now Xu Yungui said that Mu Yun was developing Xiyan poison. Could it be that Tang Xiyan poison was not Xiyan poison at all? But Jisheng had no reason to deceive them, or was Xu Yungui deliberately saying this to test her?

Niantong calmed down and continued to walk towards the Elixir Hall.

The Pills Hall was empty at the moment, as if they were preparing for Mu Yun’s Xiyan Pill. In the hall, there was only Mu Yun and a little boy.

Niantong walked forward, and Mu Yun said respectfully: "Right Deputy Envoy." In his eyes, there was no resentment towards Niantong.

Niantong nodded and asked, "What poison are you developing, Xiyan Poison?"

"It's Xiyan Poison."

Niantong asked: "I heard that this Xiyan poison was made by Yuyanmen, Ruoyanmen, and it was finished many years ago. Since that's the case, what are you doing now?"

"I don't know, I'm just doing it on order."

"Mu Yun, have you ever blamed me for your brother's death?"

"I dare not." Mu Yun fell down his head, but Nian Tong was able to capture a hint of forbearance in his expression. This is human nature, and she didn't say much.

"Okay, I understand, you can go and do it first." Niantong said.

Mu Yun retreated in response, and Nian Tong looked at the Elixir Hall again. The time I came before was at night, and I had never carefully observed the facilities inside. She walked around and found that the decoration design was indeed wonderful. I have to say that there is indeed a reason why Hongxiu Villa can compete with the court again.

Niantong looked at the scenery outside the window and sighed. I wonder if Tang Xi and the others already knew that she had become the right deputy envoy of Hongxiu Villa.

Of course, this kind of news always spread particularly quickly. In addition, Xu Yungui was interested in promoting it. Within half a day, the exile was spreading when he saw his heir Nian Tong defect to Hongxiu Villa. Tang Xi and the others were already looking for Nian Tong's traces, but they were shocked when they heard the news.

Tang Xi was most excited. He knew the character of his apprentice. She would never do such a thing, and he didn't believe it. However, this news was indeed heard after Niantong left without saying goodbye. He didn't believe it, but everyone else was talking about it. Coupled with the unknown note left by Niantong, the rumors could no longer be stopped this time.

A Chen was beside him and said softly: "I said that at the beginning, but no one believed me. Now the matter is really coming out..."

Qu Yiran looked at her, her eyes soft but also warned: "You know what Niantong treats you normally, don't talk nonsense for a man whose heart is not on you."

Ah Chen didn't say anything more.

At this moment, Qu Yiran and Jisheng's calmness seemed particularly irritable. He asked: "Is this news accurate? My apprentice cannot do such a thing. They must have framed her."

But, at the moment, no one dared to speak in silence.

"...I'll go find her in person!" Tang Xi gritted her teeth and said.

Qu Yiran stepped forward quickly, but was stopped by Jisheng. Jisheng walked up even more calmly, grabbed Tang Xi, and shook his head: "Don't go."

Tang Xi took a deep breath, looked at Jisheng, and said, "Jisheng, you and I are friends and confidants. You won't know what I'm thinking at this moment, right?"

"It is precisely because I know that I want to stop you even more. You like Niantong, you believe in her, you are afraid that others will misunderstand her. If it is useful for you now, I will never stop you. Niantong is my friend, and I believe in her. But if she really does this, you go, it is just a witness to this fact, which makes her leave embarrassed and confirms her crime. If she was wronged, you will not be able to find her during this trip and wash away her grievances."

Jisheng said it very well, but Tang Xi was still as irritable.

"Then you say, what can I do? Can I sit back and wait for death?"

Jisheng nodded: "It's true that you have to wait for death, but that's not called waiting for time." Jisheng patted his shoulder, "How is Niantong's swordsmanship now?"

"..." Tang Xi was stunned for a moment and replied perfunctorily, "I'll count on waiting."

"Will that be fine? She has the ability to protect herself. If not, can the blood curse between your master and disciple help? So, only when you are well can you help Niantong when she is injured. Do you understand?"

Tang Xi gritted his teeth, looked at Qu Yiran, who looked worried, and then looked at the gossip and chatting around him. He was very angry. Not only was he angry that he was powerless, but he actually felt that what Jisheng said was right.

Tang Xi was a little helpless, and seemed to wave his hand a little crazy in front of others: "I want to go back and think about it first, don't come here."

Jisheng looked at his left back and felt inexplicably uncomfortable. He turned around and saw Qu Yiran walking up.

Qu Yiran said: "Is it really good for us to lie to him like this..."

"Thinking about the overall situation, I think he will understand it in the future." Jisheng said.

Qu Yiran looked at him without saying anything, thinking in his heart, what if it were her? Would he say this with peace of mind? Take into account the overall situation...

She was a little chilling.

At night, A Chen brought a bowl of sweet date porridge and knocked on Tang Xi's door. Because no one opened the door and no one responded, A Chen was a little worried and used some effort to push open Tang Xi's door.

I just saw Tang Xi sitting on the chair with a dull look on her face. She had known Tang Xi for so many years, and at most, when she was drunk and furious, but she had never seen him lose his mind like this.

She smiled bitterly. He was drunk and got angry, as if it was because of Niantong, when he was in Yangzhou that time.

Her fearless brother Tang Xi, who doesn't care about anything, is where is she now? It's Niantong, the friend she is the best and first met, and has changed the senior brother Tang Xi she likes.

Ah Chen didn't think much about it, put the sweet date porridge on the table, walked to Tang Xi, squatted down, and shouted with concern and helplessness: "Brother Tang Xi."

The same thing as she expected was that Tang Xi did not answer her, and even did not even turn her eyes.
