Chapter 353
There was obvious doubt and dissatisfaction in Le Zhengqingfeng's words. It was obvious that he was dissatisfied with Le Zhengqin's handling of the matter this time, and also dissatisfied with his trust in Mu Xin and others.
He was reserved about the "spy" theory, thinking that the information obtained from Fang Yuan was inevitably biased, and even thought that this was an unwarranted suspicion and attack on the people within Le Zheng.
This tense atmosphere spread throughout the warehouse, and everyone had different expressions on their faces.
Le Zhengqin knew that every word he said at this moment could affect the judgment of everyone present, and even affect the future of Le Zheng as a whole. Moreover, although Yunxiu and others did not explicitly ask him to keep it a secret, their words and deeds also expressed the intention of keeping it a secret.
The reason why I didn't say it explicitly was because I felt that he could realize that the risk involved was the survival of the entire Lezheng, and I was sure that he would not tell it easily.
Le Zhengqin tried his best to make his tone sound calm but firm: "Brother Qingfeng, I understand your doubts. But at this critical moment, we must act cautiously and unite to face the outside world. We must not let Le Zheng fall into an irretrievable situation because of a momentary negligence."
He paused, frowning even more tightly, and continued, "I believe that everyone here is a loyal person of Le Zheng, and is willing to give everything for the future of Le Zheng. Because of this, we cannot be lax or careless in the slightest. The existence of spies is a serious threat, and we must eradicate it completely to ensure the safety of Le Zheng."
Seeing that Le Zheng Qin was so sure that there was a spy within Le Zheng, he didn't understand what the spy he was talking about was targeting. Then, looking at the reactions of the other people, it seemed that they had already had doubts.
Besides, she originally wanted to get away with it cleanly tonight and didn't want to come here. Le Zheng Sihui's words "I can't live without you" were particularly harsh to her ears at this moment. She couldn't help but suspect that the target tonight was not Le Zheng Qin but herself.
It was always Le Zheng Sihui who started things first, and then Le Zheng Ningsi would follow her lead and talk about things. Tonight, she had an intriguing smile on her face, so Le Zheng Ningsi had to step forward first. As long as one person agreed with her, she would be successful.
"Brother Qin is right. We really can't let our guard down. But then again, we can't kill each other just because of some groundless speculation. I'm afraid that by doing so, we will fulfill the wishes of some people, right?"
She knew that Le Zheng Qingfeng was unhappy with Mu Xin and others' intervention in Le Zheng's affairs, and she said this deliberately to stir up conflict between the two sides.
Sure enough, when he heard the word "certain people" that she deliberately emphasized, Le Zhengqingfeng's expression changed. After all, she was the one sleeping beside him. Le Zhengningsi knew that he had succeeded.
Le Zhengqin nodded, expressing his understanding: "Junior Sister Ning Si is right. We certainly can't just casually doubt just because of speculation. But we must be sufficiently vigilant and prepared to deal with any situation that may arise. Junior Brother Qingfeng, what do you think?"
Le Zhengqingfeng was silent for a moment, his expression and fists relaxed, and he finally nodded: "Brother is right, we can't forget the existence of danger because of temporary comfort. But how do we confirm the identity of the spy? It can't be confirmed just because others say so, right? The same is true for the elders, right?"
Le Zheng Qin knew that he had something against the people in Fang Yuan, just like he did in the past, but he could see clearly tonight that Mu Xin and the others were not only concerned about Le Zheng, but even more, although he didn't know what it was specifically.
"They only mentioned the matter of the East Sea Pavilion. The matter of spies was my idea, and none of them mentioned it."
As Le Zhengqin finished speaking, the atmosphere in the warehouse gradually became solemn.
The affairs of Donghai Pavilion, even if not known to everyone, at least everyone present understood it clearly.
The actions of the Tuoba clan, spies, traitors and the Taoist Alliance were all the culprits that led to the Nangong clan being withdrawn from the Donghai Pavilion.
Although there are not many families that Jimen Pass wants, there are some. Moreover, the matter of Le Zheng's treason is still choking in the throats of many people. Therefore, if the Taoist Alliance wants to deal with Le Zheng again like they dealt with the Nangong family, it is not impossible.
Although they were unable to explain the matter of the Immortal Realm and Gongsun, at least Le Zhengqin could feel that they believed it to some extent.
Although Le Zheng Ningsi's provocation briefly intensified the atmosphere, her plan did not succeed. In addition, Le Zhengqin glanced at her deliberately, which made Le Zheng Ningsi's heart tighten.
If it were in the past, she would not be so nervous. She did not know whether it was because she had stayed in Le Zheng for too long or because she had witnessed how powerful the three men were, but Le Zheng Ningsi felt more and more guilty.
"Although Miss Mu intervened in the elders' matter, it was indeed their own fault. I wonder if you have been to the underground palace to take a look?
Although I have always known that there is such an underground palace in Lezheng, which was built in the past and has a tunnel leading to other places inside, it was a retreat left by our ancestors for everyone just in case. However, they treated the underground palace as a dungeon and the mistakes they made are simply too numerous to list. This is why I agreed with Miss Mu and sent the three elders to the underground palace, because they must face their past mistakes and repent deeply.
It doesn't matter if we don't know about these things. We have all witnessed the elders studying forbidden techniques. Elder Feng even wanted to take all of Le Zheng Yuhua's skills for himself, and this is not the first time they have done this. Fortunately, they only know a little about the Star Absorbing Technique, otherwise, how could they have gotten it?
As for the matter of Peach Blossom Valley, due to its special nature, this matter really shouldn't be brought to the surface. But regarding your misunderstanding of Miss Mu, I just want to say something fair.
The four elders have indeed lived for hundreds of years. Over the years, they have been using their identities as selected descendants to constantly deceive us. I was one of the people they chose this time. Later, they took a fancy to Hongjun, Yuhua, Qiming and Uncle Master Li.
The younger they are, the less times they have to change their identities, and the less risk they have to take. As for those whose identities they have taken over, there are many who end up in the palace, you can go and take a look.
Back then, the four elders accidentally entered Peach Blossom Valley, and the people of Peach Blossom Valley did not abandon them. They took them in and treated their injuries. Their only request was that they not leak the matters of Peach Blossom Valley to others. That’s not too much, right?
As a result, the four elders used this matter as a threat to force the high priest of Taohua Valley to hand over the secret of immortality. The high priest had no choice but to provide him with medicine for many years.
They were still not satisfied with this and threatened the high priest again and it was definitely the last time. The high priest had no choice but to develop an elixir of immortality for them.
What was the result? Ha! The so-called last time was just when the guardian of the high priest sent them the elixir, they sold Taohua Valley to Tuoba clan, so that the whole Taohua Valley was slaughtered by Tuoba clan. They killed some and captured some, turning a picturesque Taohua Valley with spring-like seasons into a place of terror.
Such an ungrateful and treacherous person is actually one of our Lezheng, and a respected elder. How unfortunate. We should have cleaned up the mess ourselves, but we have to rely on a few juniors and the bride. Speaking of this, we have to thank them for not making this matter public. It's a shame, everyone.
But in the end, there is nothing we can do! We are all too weak. If he is like Nangong, how can he protect himself? What about the people in the city? Have you ever thought about it? It turns out that it is so difficult to have a clear conscience. "
