In the previous life, it was the Yongyi Hou Mansion that Zhou Yinzhi "checked".

Later, Shen Jie ascended the throne to rehabilitate the Yongyi Hou Mansion.

Later, Zhou Yinzhi was shot dead by Xie Weiran's arrow and his head was nailed to the palace gate.

It can be seen that he has never done anything good.

This person is dedicated to power and high position, and always uses unscrupulous means to achieve his goals, but he is cautious and cautious in doing things, and it is difficult to be caught wrong.

This is the reason why Jiang Xuening used him smoothly in the last life.

It's just that she doesn't even want to enter the palace in this life, and if she has too deep a relationship with this person, it's tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger. But at the moment, the other party is the only channel for her to know about the situation of Yongyi Hou's mansion's involvement in Pingnan Wang's old case, and there is also Xie Wei who doesn't know when he will decapitate her, so he has to contact him even if he doesn't want to.

I hope that in this life, I can get rid of the worldly troubles and get the kind of "freedom" that You Fangyin said.

She sighed inwardly, got back into the carriage, and said, "Go to the Sky Tower."

By this time it was getting dark.

In late autumn, swan geese appeared.

There are not many people drinking at the top of the building.

Chen Ying, who was promoted to be the servant of the Ministry of Justice half a year ago, was playing with the wine cup filled with fine wine. He was idle, but said: "Jin Yiwei has always only obeyed the command of the Holy Majesty. I am afraid that the investigation of the Yongyihou's mansion is also the intention of the Majesty. Those Pingnan Wang Yidang Remnants, I have been detained in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice for several days, and they can't find anything out. Today, I asked me to go out of the mountain to make a fuss, to see if I can pry things out of their mouths. Your lord, You are always by your side, can you point to the officials, what does the Holy Majesty want to know from them?"

Chen Ying is a well-known cruel official in recent years. The methods of torture prisoners are very cruel, even inhumane. But because of this, he has solved several big cases, and his achievements at the local level are very good.

This even includes the big event of killing the followers of Tianjiao in Jiangsu.

It's just that he also likes to figure out the thoughts of the people above.

Working under the eyes of the emperor, sometimes it doesn't matter what the truth is, what matters is what the emperor wants to hear.

The man sitting across from him neither had a feast today nor entered the palace, so he was only wearing a simple white robe with long sleeves, without any extra decorations, and even wore a bare hair on his head. Ebony hairpins of any shape are tied together.

At this moment, he didn't look up at Chen Ying.

There was a newly-made piano on the table, which had gone through the first eleven processes. The paint was as bright as a mirror, and the feet were full of geese. But he lowered his eyes, pulled the strings, and carefully plucked the strings one by one. Wear it up.

Chen Ying's eyes flickered, and he said again: "Our Majesty looks generous, but Chen must feel in his heart that His Majesty is too suspicious."

Xie Wei threaded the first string, and then wrapped it around the goose foot on the right side of the back of the piano.

Chen Ying couldn't help but look at his expression: "Like you, Master Young Master, how can you say that you were also a hero who assisted the Holy One to ascend the throne? But right now, you are just a 'Master Master' without a real job, and you are not a 'Great Master'. You have to worry about it, there is the truth of the emperor's teacher, but not the name of the emperor's teacher. But Luo Shizi is actually a monk Yuanji who has never done anything. The Holy One not only made him a national teacher, but also let him be in charge of the Ministry of Rites, from the official to the minister. Chen If you have a tenth or two of your ability, you can't bear this kind of thing. Is it true that the young teacher is not even half-hearted?"

Xie Wei's fingers are born to play the piano.

The nail cover is clean and transparent, showing a sense of warmth.

He didn't stop putting on the strings, but said: "Chen Shilang is careful. The Holy One is the Ninth Five-Year Honor, how can the emperor's mind presume? Kuang Wei is a scholar who only knows how to talk on paper. Master Yuanji was in the past When the Holy Majesty was in the mansion, he sat in danger and talked about Taoism, and his Buddhist attainments were not in vain. The Holy Majesty appointed him as a national teacher, which has its own reasons. Thunder, rain and dew are all benevolent, why not fair?"

Chen Ying laughed, seemingly disapproving: "The government and the public know whether it is fair or not. You just give pointers, how should the lower officials interrogate this person?"

Xie Wei said: "Trial as you want."

Chen Ying frowned: "If you don't want to go through the trial?"

Xie Wei said: "Master Chen can't judge, I feel that I can judge someone to take over."

Chen Ying's heart trembled suddenly, and he was already thinking about it, so he immediately put down the wine cup and bowed: "Mr. Xie give advice."

Xie Wei continued to put his head down on the strings, and occasionally plucked it lightly to test the sound.

The sound from upstairs was intermittent.

The setting sun in the west cast a soft glow on him, but it couldn't change his color at all, it could only lengthen his figure behind.

Chen Ying knew that he had made this violin for three years, and cherished it very much. Now when it was time to string the violin, being able to talk to him in a few words was enough to save face, so he naturally saved his modesty, so he didn't want to keep any more. He bowed and said goodbye. , go downstairs.

After Chen Ying left, Jian Shu, who had been standing beside him with his sword in his arms, frowned. He had a young face, but he was not impulsive. After thinking about it for a while, he hesitated and said, "Sir, let them check like this." ?"

Xie Wei said: "If it wasn't Chen Ying, there would be others."

Jianshu was silent.

After a while, a waiter came up from downstairs with a lacquered plate full of food and wine: "My lord, your order has arrived."

Jianshu said: "Why did our husband order anything?"

The waiter looked surprised: "Didn't the master who just went down ordered it for you?"

This Xiaoer looks like an ordinary person, but he looks very strange, and he speaks with a little Wuyue accent.

When did layer Xiaolou have such a mistress?

Jianshu suddenly sensed something was wrong, raised his eyebrows abruptly, drew his sword out of its sheath, and shouted: "Sir, be careful!"

"Wow!"

When the sword book made a sound, this "little two" knew that he had been exposed, and the innocent and flattering face he had pretended before immediately turned ferocious and fierce, and he directly pushed the lacquered plate of wine and vegetables towards the sword book, from the chessboard. He pulled out a one-and-a-half-foot short knife and attacked Xie Wei!

"Die!"

Xie Weifang stood up holding the qin, the man's dagger had already arrived, only the sound of "Zheng" was heard, and the four strings that had just been threaded were broken by the tip of the knife!

There is also a knife mark on the body of the piano!

His calm and warm expression just now turned cold.

Xiejie Hutong is not too far from the building, Jiang Xuening felt that Yan Lin should arrive anyway, so he just asked the car to park on the side of the road diagonally opposite to this building, and ordered the driver to go to the building to invite someone.

But she never expected that a moment after the coachman left, a black shadow came from outside!

There was only a flash of bright knife light, and the short knife was pressed against her neck. Tang'er, who was also in the car, had no time to scream, but was slapped on the back of the neck by this man, lost consciousness, and fell at Jiang Xuening's feet!

At this moment, feeling the coldness coming from her neck, Jiang Xuening only had one thought in her mind——

Get a thousand knives!

The one surnamed Xie really wanted to kill Bengong to silence him!

However, she soon realized that something was wrong: there seemed to be a sound of shouting from the opposite building, someone was yelling to search the inside and outside, and then there was a burst of chaotic footsteps.

Someone reported back that no one was seen.

Jiang Xuening couldn't see what the person who held her hostage looked like, but could only feel a slight tremor in the hand holding the knife, as if he had just experienced a fierce fight, and seemed to be as nervous as himself.

Soon, footsteps approached the carriage.

One person stopped in front of the car.

Jiang Xuening listened to that voice and asked, "Is the second girl Ning in the car?"

Only Xie Wei would call her "Miss Ning Er", even if she didn't recognize the voice, she could tell who it was speaking!

There was a sudden heartbeat.

The one with the knife on her neck is probably an assassin;

Xie Wei wanted to arrest this person;

The other party didn't make a move, presumably judging from her car that the identity of the person in the car was at least not ordinary, and wanted to take her as a hostage;

On the surface her life was threatened by a man with a knife, but...

Outside the car is a more terrifying devil!

This situation is much more terrifying than simply meeting Xie Wei and wanting to kill her to silence her!

Because Xie Wei can kill her together in the name of killing the assassin or the rebel party, and then push it to the rebel party; or allow the other party to hold her as a hostage without satisfying any conditions of the assassin, deliberately waiting for the assassin to kill her !

This saves even cover-ups and explanations.

There is no more worry-free and more worry-free way of death in the world, which can completely dissociate Xie Wei from her death. At most, he can say "I can't do it", and no one can be harsh.

As long as Jiang Xuening thought about it, her scalp became numb, and she didn't dare to look back at the assassin with the knife. After the opponent pushed her, she immediately said with a trembling tone: "It's me."

Xie Wei outside said again: "Only you?"

Jiang Xuening couldn't figure out what the assassin was thinking, so she didn't dare to answer.

The assassin smiled sullenly: "Of course she's not the only one."

Just now the servant beside Xie Wei reacted too quickly, so that he failed in the assassination, and people around immediately rushed to arrest him, thinking that when this Xie Wei went out, there were many people secretly protecting him.

As a last resort, he escaped, and only this carriage was the hiding place.

Since Xie Wei was able to assist the immoral dog emperor to ascend the throne, he had a bit of insight, so it was not unusual for him to guess that he was in the car, so there was no need for him to hide it. On the contrary, he vaguely heard that Xie Wei actually knew the girl in the car.

In this way, there is something to talk about.

Touching Jiang Xuening's neck with a knife, he asked her, "Do you know the person surnamed Xie?"

Compared with the one outside, this assassin is actually not the most dangerous.

Jiang Xuening had already shown his flaws in front of Xie Wei once, fearing that he would see something else this time and take the opportunity to kill herself, and she was also afraid at first, so she said in a trembling voice: "I know, I know. I saved Xie Wei four years ago. Mister's life. Although I don't know who the hero is, but I have something to say, please don't be impulsive..."

This is not only for the assassin, but also for Xie Wei.

I think at the end of her life, in order to keep Zhang Zhe and return his reputation for the rest of his life, she used the favor from many years ago; now it has only been a few days since she was reborn? Obviously know more than the previous life, and do it smarter than the previous life...

But I didn't expect to take out favors so early to save my life!

Xie Wei stood outside the car, separated from the people in the car only by a hanging curtain.

He was not surprised to hear the assassin's voice.

On the contrary, Jiang Xuening's remarks made him twitch his eyebrows slightly after hearing what he said, and he felt something interesting.

There wasn't a single pedestrian around, and the streets were filled with death.

Jian Shu looked at the car with a cold face.

Xie Wei, however, glanced at another young man next to him, who was wearing a tight sleeve and carrying an arrow on his back, waved his hand slightly to signal him to go, and then said to the inside of the car, "That's right. The second girl Ning Wei has the grace to save her life, and her father is on good terms with Wei. A strong man is dissatisfied with the court, which is considered a matter of concern to the world; now he is kidnapping a girl who is not familiar with the world, and he is suspected of hurting innocent people. Taking the rebels and To save a benefactor, you should choose the latter. Even if you think about it, you don’t want to die here. If you are willing to let the second girl Ning go, I can order someone to fetch a letter, so that someone can open the city gate for you, and send you out of Beijing safely."

What nonsense!

Jiang Xuening didn't believe a word.

It's just that she is controlled by others and cannot speak rashly. And in front of Xie Wei, he didn't dare to say this.

The assassin didn't expect his luck to be so lucky, he just ran into the carriage and grabbed Xie Wei's former savior, so he laughed loudly: "It seems that God has given me a chance to escape. I only heard that Master Xie Concentrating on Taoism, not close to women, unexpectedly there will be times when you feel sorry for her. Since you said that this is your savior, and you want her to be safe, it is easy, why don't you come and replace her! Wouldn't it be better for me to take you out of the city? ?otherwise…"

His voice paused, but it was suddenly extremely vicious.

"I'm killing this **** now!"

Cold sweat broke out on Jiang Xuening's back, and he cursed this assassin in his heart for being a fool! Otherwise, in the previous life, no matter whether it was King Pingnan's rebellion against the party or the rebellious party of the Heavenly Religion, it was all in the hands of Xie Wei, this pig's brain is too far behind!

Can you believe what Xie Wei said?

He even counted on using her as a threat to let Xie Wei take her place!

If Xie Wei is willing, she can take off her head and walk with it in her hands!

There was a dead silence outside.

The assassin was impatient: "I'll say dozens, if you haven't thought about it—"

"There is no need to count."

Xie Wei's calm voice interrupted him.

Jiang Xuening's heart rose to her throat.

Immediately afterwards, I heard him say: "Your Excellency, please send the second girl Ning out, I can replace you."

Jiang Xuening: "..."

No matter what she thinks, the assassin is overjoyed, only that the legendary emperor teacher Xie Wei also got confused, just thinking that people want to live, and even negotiated terms with him.

Little did they know that since he made a move, he didn't want to go back alive today.

Asking Xie Wei to replace this woman is just a cover, taking the opportunity to kill someone when the exchange is close is his real purpose!

"You, open the curtain."

He ordered Jiang Xuening in a vicious voice, and the knife rested on her neck without moving away.

Jiang Xuening then moved slowly, leaned forward, stretched out her hand, and slowly opened the car curtain.

The reddish sky suddenly poured in.

Then he saw that Xie Weichang was standing three zhang away in front of her car, with indifferent eyebrows and deep eyes, wearing a wide robe with big sleeves, clean from dust. The facial features are extremely good-looking, but at the first glance, everyone will always notice the restrained demeanor of this body, Yuan Tingyue Zhi, calm and calm, but also faintly thick. It reminds people of the high mountains, the sea, the saints who chanted in ancient times, or the hermits picking weeds in the mountains.

His eyes fell on her across the void, peaceful and profound.

Jiang Xuening shivered.

She suddenly remembered: besides Xie Wei, besides a swordsman who is good at swordsmanship, there is also a taciturn swordsman who is good at bows and arrows.

Taking another look, you can see that there is a high-rise building outside...

I'm afraid, when the assassin leaves the car and appears in sight, that's when he dies!

It's just that I don't know if Xie Wei will deal with her "by the way"...

The assassin behind her also took a glance, and only said to Xie Wei: "Everyone who told you to retreat to thirty feet away!"

All the people with knives and swords looked at Xie Wei.

Xie Wei then waved his hand to them, then looked directly at the assassin and said: "Please rest assured, Wei dare not put the life of your benefactor and friend's beloved daughter in danger, a gentleman promises, if you are willing to let people go, you will never hurt your life."

Everyone retreated, leaving only Xie Wei in place.

The assassin said: "You come forward."

Xie Wei stepped forward.

When he was only six feet away from the car, the assassin told him to stop, and then pushed Jiang Xuening who was restrained by him. Jiang Xuening really didn't want to go down, God knows if an arrow would go through her head after going down.

But the knife was right on his neck, and he had to do it if he didn't.

At this time, I had no choice but to go on.

The assassin held her all the way, and then slowly approached Xie Wei.

Jiang Xuening was trembling all over.

She felt that Lord Yan had already stood outside and knocked on the door.

Unexpectedly, when he finally got close to Xie Wei, the assassin pushed her without warning, and directly raised his knife to slash at Xie Wei!

Xie Wei's expression didn't change.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Xuening felt that this was an opportunity, and immediately rushed towards Xie Wei without hesitation—she didn't believe it, with Xie Wei behind her back, the bow-drawer upstairs dared to aim at her!

A sweet and cold fragrance rushed towards his face, Xie Wei counted the assassin's move, but he didn't count that Jiang Xuening would "fall over", the corners of his eyes twitched slightly for a moment, fortunately he didn't react slowly, when she threw himself down Before, he stretched out his hand to support her, and also separated the distance between the two of them who had shortened rapidly!

At the same time, there was a sharp "whoosh" in the air, and there seemed to be a bowstring reverberating in the quiet and dangerous air!

On the tall building, arrows shot like lightning!

At this moment, Jiang Xuening's pupils shrank sharply, thinking that she was going to die.

However, the next moment, a piece of white snow blocked her eyes.

It was Xie Wei who frowned, Ping Ping raised his hand, and raised his wide sleeved robe to block her.

Jiang Xuening was startled, unable to see ahead.

In my ears, I heard the sound of an arrow piercing through a human skull, like piercing through a crispy watermelon. Then, a few red shadows of blood splashed out and landed on the clean sleeve robe.

shocking!

The assassin's knife was only two or three inches away from Xie Wei, and the ferocity on his face hadn't faded away, a feathered arrow had been inserted between his eyebrows, the root penetrated into the skull, and the arrow pierced out from the back of his head!

It can be seen how terrifying the archery force is!

He was brought down by the arrow, and when he took his last breath, there was still some disbelief in his eyes.

Xie Wei's face was indifferent, he only glanced at it, then let go of the hand holding Jiang Xuening's arm, and lowered the hand that raised the sleeve robe.

Jiang Xuening stood firm by herself, without the cover of her sleeve robe, only then did she see that the assassin was indeed killed by the arrow. Looking up to the nearby skyscrapers, a young man in blue with a quiver on his back had put away his bow by the railing and retreated into the shadows.

Red and white splattered on the ground, with blood and brains.

If it wasn't for the thank you just now, these things would definitely be all over her body.

Standing aside, Jiang Xuening felt sick to her stomach just by smelling the **** smell, and her face turned pale, so she turned away and dared not look again.

All the guards who retreated earlier rushed back at this moment.

Someone went to check on the assassin.

Jian Shu walked directly to Xie Wei.

Xie Wei's left sleeve was already covered in blood, and even his slender hand, which was as clear as a bamboo, was also stained a lot.

When he saw it, he took out a clean brocade handkerchief from his sleeve and offered it with both hands: "Sir."

Xie Wei took it, but turned his eyes, and his eyes fell on Jiang Xuening's ear.

He looked at it for a moment, then only handed out this brocade handkerchief.

Jiang Xuening was stunned for a moment.

Reluctantly raising her hand, her fingertips felt a little sticky, and when she lowered her hand, it was the few bloodstains that splashed onto her earlobe.

There was a moment of horror.

She was terrified of Xie Wei. But she didn't succeed in rushing at him just now, and no arrow landed on her, and now seeing him handing out the brocade handkerchief, she was secretly shocked and panicked.

After hesitating for a long while, her thick eyelashes trembled, she carefully stretched out her hand, took the brocade handkerchief from Xie Wei's hand, and said in a low voice, "Thank you sir."

Just now it was forced by the situation.

But now...

Because she was embarrassed by being called "self-respect" by him in the previous life, she was very cautious.

He only holds a brocade handkerchief, but his fingers dare not touch his palm.

However, the brocade handkerchief was white and soft, made of top-grade silk, when she took it away, a corner fell down, and it passed through Xie Wei's palm seemingly without a trace.

Xie Wei curled his long fingers slightly like a spasm, and at the same time saw the shallow scar on her wrist when she stretched out her hand, and faintly felt the **** smell of a certain year's desperate situation coming out of her mouth.

He withdrew his hand, put it behind his back, and held it weakly.

At this time, he looked at her and said, "You surprised Miss Ning Er."

Jiang Xuening wiped away the blood on her ear.

The jinpa was stained with blood.

She lowered her eyes: "Fortunately, I met an adult, and I know that you will have a way to save me, so it's okay."

"Really?" Seeing her wiping the blood and holding the brocade handkerchief in her hand, Xie Wei stretched out his hand to her, but said calmly, "But just now I heard the second girl Ning mention her old kindness in saving lives in the car , it seems more like he is afraid of danger and will do nothing to save him, it seems that danger has more intentions."

Hearing this, Jiang Xuening was almost scared out of his wits, and tried to calm down: "I dare not answer the assassin's question. I lost my mind for a while, and I was afraid that he would kill me at will if he thought I was ordinary. Yes, I was wrong. ?"

After she finished speaking, she saw him stretching out his hand, so she hurriedly handed back the brocade handkerchief.

Xie Wei took back the brocade handkerchief from her hand, and with the blood-stained white silk, slowly and carefully wiped his blood-spattered left hand, he lowered his eyebrows and closed his eyes, without saying a word.

The silence made Jiang Xuening's heart pound.

Seeing this, Jianshu at the side glanced at Xie Wei, and silently put away the brocade handkerchief that he was about to hand out.

After a while, someone came to report: "My lord, Yan Shizi is outside the street and wants to come in."

Xie Wei stopped wiping, looked up at Jiang Xuening, and said, "Jianshu, send Miss Ning over."

Jianshu responded: "Yes."

Jiang Xuening held her breath, bowed to Xie Wei, didn't dare to ask her what happened to the maid in the car, just followed Jianshu across the long street, to Yanlin's side.

After the two left, Dao Qin came down from upstairs.

He held a piano in his arms.

Xie Wei took it, raised his hand to caress the broken strings, and the knife mark that went deep into the belly of the piano, his face was expressionless, and after a long time he said: "Send the corpse to the Ministry of punishment, and ask Chen Ying to see it." I."
