Chapter 811 – How Deep Is the Affection of the People in the Courtyard?

Within the quiet and secluded courtyard, man and woman embraced, the depths of their affection for each other unknown.
Across from them was an ancient scholar tree that still had a few leaves, even in the winter. Underneath the tree stood a blue-clothed person.
This person wore a copper mask on their face that made them look like a ghost.
Mu Jiushi rested her head on Bie Tianxin's shoulder and calmly looked at this blue-clothed person.
This was a very bizarre scene.
Bie Tianxin was completely unaware.
The blue-clothed figure shook his head, and the shadows cast by the leaves of the scholar tree on his mask slightly moved.
Mu Jiushi slightly creased her brow and then closed her eyes, no longer looking at that person.
Bie Tianxin noticed this and he suddenly felt a little hot. He wanted to stretch out his hand, but he didn't dare.
After some time, the cold wind blew against the scholar tree, causing it to rustle. With a reluctant heart, Bie Tianxin left the courtyard.
Mu Jiushi walked under the ancient scholar tree and stared into the eyes peeking out from behind the blue-clothed person's mask. She asked, ”Why didn't you let me kill him?”
The blue-clothed person's voice was rather gravelly. ”You should understand very well that killing him is just a method, not our goal.”
Mu Jiushi's voice turned sharp, brimming with anger. ”It was no easy feat to make Chen Changsheng meet with that trash. How can we miss this chance!”
The blue-clothed person replied, ”Even if you kill Bie Tianxin, we can't place the crime on Chen Changsheng.”
Mu Jiushi sneered, ”Is the breath of the Black Frost Dragon not enough proof? After all, in the entire continent, only he has one at his side.”
The blue-clothed person replied, ”The problem is that Zhusha is not at Chen Changsheng's side today.”
Mu Jiushi was startled, then asked, ”Then who is that girl with him right now?”
The person replied, ”I don't know. Someone is currently investigating the matter.”
Mu Jiushi thought of that scene from just a few moments ago, her beautiful face revealing an expression of absolute loathing. ”Then how long will I have to endure?”
After a pause, the blue-clothed person answered, ”Nobody knows when the best moment will come. We must continue to wait.”
Mu Jiushi sneered, ”So then we just have to watch Chen Changsheng enter Wenshui City?”
The blue-clothed figure affectionately rubbed her head and said, ”Even if he enters Wenshui City, he can't affect the situation within the city or the general situation beyond it in the slightest. The vast majority of people living in that city have the surname of Tang. Not even Tianhai or Yin were able to deal with it, so what can he do? Of course, to avoid any surprises, quite a few people, including me, will attempt to keep him outside.”

In the flourishing and warm south, a bushy and messy beard might incite a few fearful and repelling gazes, but in the north, on the border that had been irrigated by blood and fire for so many years, it would actually offer many advantages. For instance, one could curse and snatch someone else's bowl of alcohol from the tavernkeeper's hand, but nobody would dare say anything about it.
It was just that it was rather inconvenient when drinking.
Whether one was just taking a sip or heroically gulping it down, it was very easy for alcohol to wet the beard.
