"Qingqing?" Hearing the word 'Qingqing' and connecting it to the meaning of the poem, how could Song Qingshu not understand who was playing the flute? He quickly changed his direction and walked toward the lakeside.
Sure enough, not long after, Song Qingshu saw Xia Qingqing, dressed in plain white silk, leaning against a big tree. Her long skirt brushed the ground and her clothes fluttered in the wind. There was a small white flower in her hair, and between her eyebrows there was endless sorrow.
The snow-white Xia Qingqing looked like an otherworldly fairy. It was unknown whether it was because of the rising sun or her blushing cheeks, but half of her pretty face was really as beautiful as a spring peach.
"Mrs. Yuan." With outsiders present, Song Qingshu did not want to ruin her clean reputation, so he did not dare to be too rash and called out from afar.
Hearing his voice, Xia Qingqing turned her head in pleasant surprise. When she saw the beautiful young woman behind Song Qingshu, her countenance changed slightly, but she quickly concealed it. "Finally you are here."
Li Yuanzhi looked at the delicate and pretty woman in front of her, and then turned her head to look at Song Qingshu. Her expression was very strange. She thought, "This woman is dressed in mourning clothes. Listening to the meaning of her flute song just now, she must be missing her recently deceased husband. But those two people's expressions and tone just now, clearly … clearly there is something going on between them. "
Song Qingshu did not know that Li Yuanzhi had already regarded the two of them as adulterous husband and wife. He quickly looked at Xia Qingqing and asked, "Mrs. Yuan, did you stop Gui Xinshu and his wife?"
Xia Qingqing shook her head. "I traveled day and night, and finally I found them before they made their move. With great difficulty I managed to delay them for several days. But yesterday, for some reason, they suddenly decided to enter the palace to assassinate Kangxi. My martial art skill is not as high as theirs, even if I wanted to stop them, I could not. Thinking that you will be here in a few days, I decided to stay here and wait for you, to see if you have a way to save them. "
In the original work, Song Qingshu hated Gui Xinshu and his wife very much. They were extremely narrow-minded and very protective of their own people. Later on, they even killed Wu Liuqi in The Deer and the Cauldron. Song Qingshu was too lazy to save these two people. But now that Xia Qingqing was begging him, Song Qingshu's heart softened. "When did they enter the palace yesterday?"
"Last night at zishi, they seemed to have kidnapped your friend Jue Ye and forced him to bring his family into the palace." Xia Qingqing replied, "I was worried that Wei Xiaobao would see my appearance and harm you later, so I have been hiding in the dark."
"Wei Xiaobao is a clever man. He must have led them in circles in the palace. We should still be able to make it in time. Let's enter the palace together and see if we can stop them in advance." Who would have thought? "she asked." Wei Xiaobao is not afraid. "Wei Xiaobao is, he is Is is is is is. is. is."
Song Qingshu smiled calmly. "Take me into the palace? Aren't you afraid that Dongfang Bubai will see us?"
Song Qingshu smiled calmly. "Don't worry, the battle is imminent. Dongfang Bubai must be in closed-door training to build up his strength. Before the night of the full moon, he will slowly adjust himself to his peak condition. How could he care about these trifling matters?"
Xia Qingqing nodded. Suddenly, she turned her head around.
"Then what about her?" she asked, staring at Li Yuanzhi. When the two of them mentioned the big matter of assassinating the Emperor, Li Yuanzhi was scared witless. She had thought that Song Qingshu was an imperial bodyguard. Who would have thought that he was actually in contact with these traitors? Seeing the two of them turn around and stare at her, Li Yuanzhi smiled awkwardly. "You two go and do what you need to do. Don't worry about me." Seeing this mischievous young girl scared out of her wits, Song Qingshu was full of smiles. "How can I do that? You heard us plotting, and you are the daughter of an official, how could I let you go …"
Li Yuanzhi retreated and explained in panic, "Song Dage, we are all so familiar with each other. Don't joke around. I promise to keep my mouth shut about today's matter … Don't come over. Are you Tian Di Hui or Red Flower Society? I am very familiar with the leaders of the Red Flower Society. I also know the people of Tian Di Hui … Wu, wu, don't kill me."
Song Qingshu had a faint smile on his face. "You are the daughter of an official, yet you are entangled with these anti-Qing, restoring Ming organizations. Aren't you afraid that I will report you?"
"Aren't you the same …" Li Yuanzhi mumbled.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you. I just need you to enter the palace with us. I promised your father that I would bring you to the capital, so I don't dare to leave you alone in the capital. If you were to be fancied by some good-for-nothing disciple and be taken back to the mansion as a concubine, wouldn't your father come after me with all his might? "Song Qingshu said.
Li Yuanzhi was secretly pleased with herself. 'Hmph, men are so easy to deceive. I just need to pretend to be pitiful and pass the test …'
"Madam Yuan, is the imperial bodyguard uniform ready?" Song Qingshu asked.
"It's ready." Xia Qingqing pulled Li Yuanzhi's hand and said, "This young lady, please follow me into the room and change into the imperial bodyguard uniform."
After a while, the two women came out. When Song Qingshu saw them, his eyes lit up and he praised, "Petite and exquisite, with soft and smooth skin. If you were thrown into the army camp, such a handsome and pleasant little soldier would definitely be swallowed up without any residue left."
Xia Qingqing was already familiar with Song Qingshu's style of speaking, so she didn't find it strange. Li Yuanzhi, on the other hand, blushed when she heard it. She felt that his words were too bold and explicit.
When they arrived at the palace gate, they saw that the guards all had serious expressions. Song Qingshu stepped forward and asked, "What happened in the palace?"
"So it's Lord Song. I heard that three highly skilled assassins came to the palace. Chief Steward Duo ordered everyone to strictly guard their posts." An imperial bodyguard examined the waist tag and said quietly. Suddenly, he looked at the two people behind Song Qingshu in confusion and asked, "These two brothers look very unfamiliar. Which shift are they on?"
Song Qingshu casually replied, "I helped the emperor search for young experts from various sects to strengthen the imperial bodyguard team." In this era, no one dared to falsify the emperor's oral orders. Once discovered, it would definitely be a serious crime that would result in the execution of nine generations. However, as a transmigrator, Song Qingshu didn't fear the imperial power that much. He thought that the other party couldn't possibly confront Kangxi, so he didn't have any misgivings and opened his mouth.
As expected, the imperial bodyguards' expressions tightened. They didn't dare to ask any more questions and let the three through the palace gate. Chapter 106: Two Secret Departments
"Brother Song, according to what they said, Senior Brother seems to have been discovered." Although Xia Qingqing had never liked these two rude and unreasonable Senior Brother and Martial Sister-in-law, she still felt quite anxious when she thought that they had forced their way into the palace to avenge her husband.
The Forbidden City was too big. Song Qingshu didn't know where to go to rescue them. After hesitating for a moment, he pulled over a passing imperial bodyguard and asked, "Where is the assassin now?"
The guard saw that it was Song Qingshu, a famous expert in the palace. He saluted and hurriedly said, "Reporting to Song daren, I heard that the assassin has already been captured and is being escorted to the imperial study by Chief Steward Duo. His Majesty will personally interrogate him."
Song Qingshu recalled that in the original work, Gui Xinshu was lost in the palace. He couldn't find any trace of the emperor, so he pretended to be captured. When he was brought in front of the emperor, he suddenly launched an attack.
"I really can't let Kangxi die at this time." Song Qingshu was anxious. He had done so much political speculation and didn't want to fail at the last moment.
Song Qingshu hurriedly went straight to the imperial study. He had just run a few zhang when he turned his head and saw the two women standing where they were. He hurriedly ran back. Holding the two women's shoulders, he used his qinggong to run to the imperial study.
Being in such close contact with Song Qingshu, Xia Qingqing was fine, but Li Yuanzhi was rather uncomfortable. However, she also knew that time was of the essence, so she had no choice but to bite her red lips and endure it.
From far away, they heard the sound of swords and sabers clashing in the imperial study. Song Qingshu was anxious and quickened his pace. The three of them had just arrived at the entrance of the imperial study when they saw Gui Xinshu's family of three had been hacked to death.
"Ah!" Xia Qingqing cried out in alarm and almost fell down. Fortunately Li Yuanzhi had sharp eyes and quick hands; she caught her.
Hearing the cry, Kangxi raised his head and saw that it was Song Qingshu. Still in a state of shock, he said, "Turns out Song Shaoxia has returned. If you had arrived earlier, these three assassins wouldn't have been so arrogant."
"Song Mou came late to rescue Your Majesty, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." Song Qingshu was taken aback, and promptly took the opportunity to apologize.
Doron and the others knelt on the ground, cold sweat dripping down their backs: "We were unable to protect Your Majesty and have frightened Your Majesty."
"Forget it, forget it. This time, it was fortunate that Xiaobao blocked their sabers with his body. Drag them away. Xiaobao and Qingshu stay, the rest of you go out." Kangxi waved his hand.
Seeing the corpses of Gui Xinshu's family being dragged out like dead dogs, Xia Qingqing's lips trembled. Her eyes were filled with hatred as she looked at Kangxi. Song Qingshu promptly patted her hand and quietly said, "I will get their bodies back. Believe me, you guys go outside and wait for me." Finished speaking, his finger touched her body and restrained all the zhenqi in her body. Seeing the other glaring at him, Song Qingshu used secret sound transmission to say, "I'm afraid you'll do something stupid … Miss Li, take good care of her."
Li Yuanzhi nodded and supported Xia Qingqing out.
"His grandpa, do you think laozi's Imperial Palace is a public toilet? You can come and go as you please!" Seeing that everyone had left, Kangxi cursed.
"Your Majesty, your anger will subside once you've scolded him." Wei Xiaobao patted Kangxi's back. Chapter 106 – Two Secret Departments
She passed a cup of tea to him.
"No!" Kangxi pushed away the teacup in front of him, turned to look at Song Qingshu and asked, "How was your trip to the various sects?"
Song Qingshu saw that Kangxi was cursing and swearing in front of him, not only was he not afraid, he was instead filled with gratification. It seemed that the other party had regarded him as one of his own. Hastily he replied, "When the heads of the various schools heard that their sons and nephews had the opportunity to become the Imperial Bodyguards, not only did they not resist, they were all overjoyed and wished that they could get a few more places."
Only then did Kangxi's countenance turn for the better. "Most of the Imperial Bodyguards in the Palace are the Eight Banners' disciples who have rendered meritorious service, their martial art skill is really not good enough to be seen in public," he said. Last time, I sent them to escort Xiaobao. Coupled with this assassination attempt, I finally understand that they are unable to withstand a single blow from a true expert. "
Song Qingshu replied, "Most of the Imperial Bodyguards are Bannermen. Their martial arts are more focused on killing enemies on the battlefield. It is indeed somewhat unsuitable to deal with Jianghu people."
"That's right," Kangxi stood up, "That's why I've decided to have Dolong select the martial arts experts from the Imperial Bodyguards to establish a secret department called 'Flying Guillotine', specifically responsible for dealing with this group of Jianghu fugitives."
"Flying Guillotine?" Song Qingshu was shocked.
"Qingshu, it would be a waste for such good martial arts to be left idle. I've decided to have you train the disciples recruited from the various sects and establish another secret department. As for the name, hmm," Kangxi muttered to himself for a moment, then said, "Let's call it the Stick Department. On the surface, it will be responsible for catching cicadas in the Imperial Palace, but in reality, it will help me monitor the movements of Jianghu!"
After a feeling of confusion and absurdity, a wave of ecstasy followed. Song Qingshu hurriedly tightened his face, "This subject accepts the decree!"
"By the way, I heard that on the fifteenth of this month, a person with very high martial arts skills will come to the Forbidden City to duel with Sect Leader Dongfang?" Kangxi's expression was a little unsightly.
"Replying to Your Majesty, it is an expert of the Huashan Sect who has lived in seclusion for several decades. He is known as the 'Number One Sword in the World', Sword Saint Feng Qingyang. I'm afraid it's because Yuan Chengzhi, whom Sect Leader Dongfang killed, was a disciple of the Huashan Sect." Song Qingshu answered.
"You really think that my Imperial Palace is a martial arts arena!" Kangxi's face twitched. He said hatefully, "In the future, when the Great Qing unifies the world, I will definitely remove the Huashan Sect from the Wulin world."
Listening to Wei Xiaobao's immediate flattery, Song Qingshu did not dare to say anything bad. If word of this were to spread, Xia Qingqing would tear him apart.
After a while, Kangxi suddenly asked, "How is that Feng Qingyang's martial arts compared to Sect Leader Dongfang's?"
"That's hard to say. The odds are fifty-fifty." Seeing that Kangxi's expression was even more unsightly, Song Qingshu hurriedly said, "However, the Forbidden City can be considered as Sect Leader Dongfang's home ground. He has the advantage of time, place, and people. In a fight between experts, victory and defeat is only a matter of one line. In this case, it seems that Sect Leader Dongfang has a higher chance of winning."
Kangxi's expression finally eased a little. He said, "According to the spy's report, a large number of people from the Wulin world have come to the capital. In order to witness the unprecedented battle between two peerless experts, they must be thinking of ways to sneak into the Imperial Palace. During this time, Qingshu, you and Dolong will be responsible for the safety of the Imperial Palace. Don't let random people sneak into the Imperial Palace. Our Great Qing Imperial Palace is not a vegetable market. "
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Song Qingshu's expression turned bitter. He thought that if he did this, he would probably offend a large number of people from the Wulin world. Why was Kangxi not as open-minded as the Emperor in Lu Xiaofeng's novel, who allowed some people from the Wulin world to enter the Imperial Palace … Of course, these were only his thoughts. From Kangxi's point of view, there was indeed no reason for him to allow people from the Wulin world to enter and leave the Imperial Palace at will.
"Qingshu, you must be tired from rushing all the way here. Go and rest first." Kangxi said softly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Before leaving, Song Qingshu glanced at a shadowy corner of the Imperial Study before slowly retreating.
Seeing that Song Qingshu had closed the door of the Imperial Study, Kangxi's expression darkened. He lowered his voice and asked, "Xiaobao, have you investigated Song Qingshu's background?"
"Your servant deserves to die. Because of the disturbance caused by those assassins, I almost forgot the proper business," Wei Xiaobao hastily said, "It has been investigated. Song Qingshu was originally Wudang's third generation chief disciple. Unfortunately, because he mistakenly killed Seventh Shishu Mo Shenggu, he was expelled by Wudang. Later on, he married the Sect Leader of Emei School, Zhou Zhiruo. At the Shaolin Temple's Lion-slaying Assembly, he was severely injured by his Shishu, Yu LianZhou. According to the rumors in Jianghu, he has already died. But I did not expect that not only did he not die, his martial art skill is far better than before. "
Kangxi seemed to be deep in thought. He could not help but reveal a trace of a smile. "Killing a Shishu, an abandoned disciple of Wudang, is not tolerated by the righteous path of Wulin world. Nowadays, in troubled times, people should be based on their ability. Someone like Song Qingshu is just right for Zhen to use … "
After a sense of confusion and absurdity, a burst of wild joy followed in his heart. Song Qingshu hastily tightened his face. "Your subject receives the Emperor's decree!"
"By the way, I heard that on the fifteenth of this month, a person with very high martial art skills will come to the Forbidden City to duel with Sect Leader Dongfang?" Kangxi's expression was a little unsightly.
"Your Majesty, it is an expert of the Huashan Sect who has lived in seclusion for decades. He is known as the 'Number One Sword in the World', Sword Saint Feng Qingyang.

"You really think that Zhen's palace is a martial arts arena!" Kangxi's face twitched. He said hatefully, "In the future, when the Great Qing unifies the world, Zhen will definitely remove the Huashan Sect from the martial arts world."
Listening to Wei Xiaobao's flattery, Song Qingshu did not dare to say anything bad. If word of this were to spread, Xia Qingqing would tear him apart.

After a sense of confusion and absurdity, a burst of ecstasy followed. Song Qingshu quickly tightened his face. "Your subject receives the decree!"
