Chen Yan
Chapter 218 Will Never Happen Again
Once a fight broke out and someone got hurt, everyone's attention would shift to the elders fighting.
Compared to Xiao Feng Yun and Qu Shan Shan's scandalous affair, the disciples were often more interested in the grudges of their elders.
In this way, naturally no one would pursue the matter of Xiao Feng Yun.
As for Qu Shan Shan, now that her body was injured and her face ruined, they could send her away with any excuse, and the matter would be glossed over.
Without her, no one would discuss Xiao Feng Yun anymore.
But… she wondered how Qing Qing would be dealt with?
Probably, her ending wouldn't be much better.
"Take Qing Qing down and lock her up."
While Yu Qing Wu was lost in thought, Master Xiao Rong Qi's voice came again from the hall.
The next moment, Yan Qing Qing was taken away by two female disciples.
They said that Yan Qing Qing's words were inconsistent, and they suspected that she had instigated it, so they wanted to detain her and interrogate her later.
However, when Yan Qing Qing was dragged away, her face was full of despair, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Xiao Rong Qi was a bit fearful.
When she was dragged to the door, she kept looking at Yu Qing Wu.
Qing Wu naturally understood that she knew where she was going and was asking her for help.
She reached out, wanting to grab Yan Qing Qing, but was pulled back by Xie Jin Yan.
Taking advantage of the chaos, he directly pulled Yu Qing Wu out of Zi Yun Pavilion.
"Your Highness, why didn't you let me take Qing Qing away?" At this moment, Yu Qing Wu was both anxious and annoyed. Seeing Xie Jin Yan pulling her, she immediately became angry and snorted coldly, "What elder being rude, elders fighting."
"It was all arranged by Master. Your Highness saw it just now, didn't you?" Yu Qing Wu's eyes were red, and she struggled in Xie Jin Yan's arms with some anger. Meeting his calm eyes, she asked in a deep voice, "You just now… you saw Master's intention, didn't you?"
"Since you saw it, why didn't you stop it, and deliberately said those words to me? Now Qing Qing doesn't know where she's going to be sent. Even if she's not sent away, I'm afraid she won't have a good ending."
Thinking of Qing Qing, Yu Qing Wu felt sad and annoyed.
If she had seen Master's intention just now, she might have been able to stop it and take Qing Qing away.
Even if she couldn't take Qing Qing out of the sect for the time being, if she let Qing Qing eat and live with her, she could prevent Master from attacking.
"Senior Sister, do you think that if you had stopped the chaos just now, you would have been able to take Yan Qing Qing away?"
"Or do you think that if you and Yan Qing Qing lived together, you would have been able to stop Master from taking her life, or giving her away as a gift to others?" Yu Qing Wu's eyes were red with self-blame, and the man's low voice came to her ears.
She raised her head. At this time, Xie Jin Yan's handsome face no longer had the playfulness he had just had. Instead, it was full of coldness. He reached out and pulled her, saying, "Alright, I said, I'll think of a way."
"Today, Master's actions are considered a compromise compared to other methods. First, we don't have to put the blame on you and me. Second, we can muddle through and take the opportunity to let Xiao Feng Yun go. Now, what others are discussing more is probably Xiao Yu Cheng framing a female disciple for having an affair with his master, as well as Xiao Yu Cheng making a scene in Zi Yun Pavilion, and Qu Shan Shan protecting her master and being disfigured by Zhai Ying."
"In this way, no one will say more about Xiao Feng Yun's matter. Since the limelight has passed, Master naturally doesn't need to take Qing Qing's life immediately, or send her away or something. It is estimated that he is just knocking her to keep her from talking nonsense in the future."
As he spoke, Xie Jin Yan put Yu Qing Wu in his arms again, lowered his eyes and looked at her eyes that were still full of anger, and said softly, "Alright A Wu, I have already said that I will definitely think of a way. If you are really worried, shall we go see Qing Qing in a while?"
Xie Jin Yan's tone was gentle, and his expression was extremely peaceful.
Looking at the man's gentle eyes, and his helpless expression, Yu Qing Wu felt a little complicated.
She didn't know when, but the positions of her and Xie Jin Yan seemed to be reversed.
When they were young, she was the one who coaxed him and accommodated him.
Now, he was the one who coaxed her.
Even if it wasn't his fault, he would still coax her gently.
But she, once she touched the safety of her junior brothers and sisters, seemed to lose her mind.
Thinking of this, Yu Qing Wu's emotions gradually calmed down, and a look of guilt appeared on her face. She said in a low voice, "Your Highness, I'm too anxious. I also know that this matter is not easy to solve, but when I think of Qing Qing, when I think of those junior sisters, I..."
She lowered her eyes, and her red eyes were a little sour.
Looking at the woman like this, Xie Jin Yan was not angry, but felt distressed.
He knew very well why Yu Qing Wu was like this.
In the end, it was because when she was young, her mother was forced to be a concubine for Prince Ning, which left her with severe psychological trauma.
Therefore, she resisted being his concubine at the beginning, and tried her best to protect those junior sisters who might be sent out by her master as pawns.
Gently gazing at the woman in his arms for a moment, Xie Jin Yan smiled lightly, reached out and pulled her, saying, "Alright, I know."
"Moreover, I am very happy that you are now willing to lose your temper with me like this, and are willing to rely on me."
"Because this shows that you have completely trusted me in your heart, and completely trusted your husband."
Xie Jin Yan's thin lips raised, and he glanced at Yu Qing Wu's still red eyes. As if deliberately easing the atmosphere, he immediately added with a deliberate displeasure, "However… trust is trust, but if you let me sell my looks again, I will still be angry..."
"Pfft..." Hearing this, Yu Qing Wu couldn't help but laugh.
Her eyes were still filled with tears, but her peach blossom eyes were curved like crescent moons.
She gently pushed Xie Jin Yan in the chest, and said娇嗔, "I will never do it again in the future, but if you change your mind and have other people in the future, I will no longer trust you, and I will still let you sell your looks."
Yu Qing Wu's cherry lips slightly hooked, and it seemed that her mood had improved a lot.
Seeing that she was finally no longer frowning like she had been just now, Xie Jin Yan's mood also relaxed a little. He smiled, and quickened his pace, saying, "Alright, since you're not angry anymore, let's get down to business."
"I think that Junior Sister Yan shouldn't have gone far yet. We can still catch up if we follow now. The Xiao family has nothing more than firewood rooms, except for the big firewood room, there is our Zi Yun Pavilion's small firewood room. If it doesn't work, we can look for them one by one, and we can find them. After this scandal, in order to maintain Xiao Feng Yun's reputation, Master is unwilling to let too many disciples know, so naturally it is impossible to lock people in private prisons."
"What you said is true, then let's hurry up." Reminded by Xie Jin Yan, Yu Qing Wu realized how much time she had wasted being so pretentious just now.
So, she also quickly quickened her pace.
The two of them searched through the firewood rooms where people were most often locked up, and sure enough, they found Yan Qing Qing in the most remote one.
Also imprisoned together was Qu Shan Shan.
