Chapter 16: 16

Chapter 016 Attacked

　In the last life, it was the mansion of Yongyi Hou, who was "checked" by Zhou Yinzhi.
　　Later, Shen Jie ascended the throne and was rehabilitated by Yongyi Houfu.
　　Later, Zhou Yinzhi was shot to death by Xie Wei's arrows, and his head was nailed to the palace gate.
　　As you can see, he didn't do anything well.

　　This person is obsessed with power and high positions, and always uses any means to achieve his goals, but he is careful and cautious in his work, and it is difficult to be caught by others.
　　This is the reason why Jiang Xuening used him easily in his last life.
　　It's just that she doesn't even want to enter the palace in this life, and having a deep relationship with this person is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger. But at the moment, the other party is the only channel for her to know the situation of Yongyi Hou's mansion involving Pingnan King's old case, and there is also Xie Wei who doesn't know when to pick her head, even if he doesn't want to contact him, he has to contact him.

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

　　She sighed in her heart, got back on the carriage, and said, "Go to the Xiaolou."

　　*

　　At this time it was getting dark.
　　In the late autumn, there are traces of geese.
　　There are not many people left drinking at the top of the floor.

　　Chen Ying, who was promoted to the minister of punishment half a year ago, played with the wine cup filled with fine wine, and said, "Jinyiwei has always only listened to the dispatch of the saint, and I am afraid that it is the meaning of the saint to investigate Yongyi Hou's mansion. Yu Nie has been in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment for several days. They can't find out anything. Today, I specially asked me to go out and toss it out to see if I can pry something out of their mouths. Young Master, You are always by your side, can you point out the officials, the sage wants to know something from their mouths?"

　　Chen Ying is a well-known torturer in recent years, and the means of torturing prisoners are very cruel, even inhumane. But because of this, he has broken several big cases, and his local political achievements are very good.
　　This even includes the big event of taking away the Tianjiao believers in Jiangsu.
　　It's just that he also loves 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 had neither the feast day nor the palace today, so he only wore a simple white robe with large sleeves, and was not worthy of any extra ornaments, and he even wore nothing but a hair on his head. Ebony hairpins of any form are tied up.
　　He didn't look up at Chen Ying at this moment.
　　There is a newly made qin on top of the table. After the eleven previous steps, the lacquer is as bright as a mirror, and the geese's feet are full. He lowered his eyes and closed his eyes. Wear it up.

　　Chen Ying's eyes flickered, and he said, "Our sage looks kind and generous, but Chen Mou feels private, the sage is too suspicious."
　　Xie Wei put on the first string and then wrapped it around the back of the piano. On the goose's foot on the right.
　　Chen Ying couldn't help looking at his expression: "Like Master Young Master, how can you say that you were also the hero who assisted the sage to ascend to the throne? But now you are only a 'young master' who has no real job, and you are not a 'grand master', if true To care about, there is the real teacher of the emperor, but there is no name of the emperor. But the monk Yuanji, who has never done anything, was not only named the national teacher by the sage but also made in charge of the Ministry of Rites and the official book of Shangshu. If you have one or two of your skills, you can't bear this kind of thing. Is there really no injustice, Master Young Master?"

　　Xie Wei's fingers were born to play the piano.
　　The nail caps are clean and transparent, showing a warm and moisturizing effect.
　　He didn't stop piercing the strings, he just said: "Chen Shilang speaks carefully. The Sage is the rank of Ninety-five, how can the emperor's mind be guessed? In a situation where a scholar is in danger, he only knows how to talk on paper. Master Yuanji used to be there. When the sage went up to the residence, he sat in danger and discussed the Tao, and his Buddhist attainments were by no means a false name. The sage named him the national teacher, and he had his own reason.

　　Chen Ying laughed and seemed to disagree: "I know whether it is fair or not. You will give pointers. How should this person be tried by the subordinate officials?"
　　Xie Wei said: "What should be judged?"
　　Chen Ying frowned: "Why don't you get it out?"
　　Xie Wei said: "Master Chen can't get it out, so I think I can get it out and take over."

　　Chen Ying's heart suddenly froze, and he was already worried, so he put down the wine cup and bowed: "Mr. Xie's advice."

　　Xie Wei continued to wear the strings with his head buried in them, occasionally plucking it slightly, and slightly auditioning the sound.
　　The sound from upstairs was intermittent.
　　The setting sun of Xizui covered him with a soft glow, but he couldn't change his color, only stretched his figure behind him.

　　Chen Ying knew that he had made this violin for three years, and he cherished it very much. Now that it was time to wind the violin, it was a good thing to be able to answer him in a few words. Naturally, he saved a lot of money, so he didn't stay any longer. He bowed and said goodbye. , go downstairs.

　　After Chen Ying left, Jianshu, who had been holding his sword and stood beside him, frowned, his youthful face was not impulsive, he really thought about it, and then hesitantly said: "Sir, let them investigate like this. Is it?"
　　Xie Wei said, "If it wasn't for Chen Ying, there would be others."
　　Jian Shu was silent.

　　After a while, a junior came up downstairs with a lacquer plate full of wine and vegetables: "Master, your order has arrived."
　　Jian Shu said, "Have our husbands ordered anything?"
　　The little Eryi was Surprised: "Didn't the lord who just went down help me order it?"

　　This little boy looks like an ordinary person, but he looks very face, and when he speaks, he speaks with a little Wu Yue accent.
　　When did Xiaolou have such a second child?
　　Jian Shu suddenly felt something was wrong, raised his eyebrows abruptly, drew his sword out of its sheath, and shouted loudly, "Be careful, sir!"

　　"Wow!"
　　When Jianshu said, this "little Er" knew that he had been exposed, and the innocent face he pretended to be ingratiatingly turned into a ferocious and vicious one, and he directly threw the lacquered plate of wine and vegetables at Jianshu. Push, pull out a short knife of a foot and a half from the bottom of the chessboard, and attack Xie Wei!
　　"Death!"

　　Xie Weifang got up with his qin in his arms. The man's dagger had already arrived, and the four strings he had just put on were smashed by the tip of the dagger!
　　There is also a knife mark on the piano!
　　His calm and warm expression just now turned cold.

　　*

　　Xiejie Hutong is not too far from the layered sky building. Jiang Xuening felt that Yan Lin should have arrived, so he just parked the car on the side of the road diagonally opposite this building, and told the driver to go to the building to invite someone.
　　But she never expected that a dark shadow came from outside before the driver left for a moment!
　　I saw a flash of sharp knife light, and the short knife had been pressed against her neck. Before Tang'er who was in the car had time to scream, she was slapped on the back of the neck by the man, lost consciousness, and fell to Jiang Xuening's feet!

　　At this moment, feeling the coldness coming from his neck, Jiang Xuening only had one thought in his mind-
　　kill a thousand knives!
　　Xie Wei really wants to kill himself!

　　However, she soon realized that the situation was wrong: there seemed to be a sound of shouting and shouting from the building opposite, someone was shouting to search the inside and outside, followed by a clatter of footsteps.
　　Someone reported back that they were missing.
　　Jiang Xuening couldn't see what the man who held him looked like. He could only feel that the man's hand holding the knife trembled slightly.

　　Soon, footsteps approached the carriage.
　　One person stopped in front of the car.
　　Jiang Xuening heard the voice and said, "Is Ning Er girl in the car?"

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

　　A sudden heartbeat.

　　Most of the people who had the knife on her neck were assassins;
　　Xie Wei wanted to arrest this person; the other party didn't do anything, presumably because she judged that the identity of the person in the car was at least not ordinary, and wanted to take her as 　　a
　　hostage;
Her life was threatened by the knife-wielding man, but...
　　there were even more terrifying devils outside the car!

　　This kind of situation is much more terrifying than simply encountering Xie Wei and trying to kill her!

　　Because Xie Wei could have killed her in the name of killing the assassin or the chaotic party, and then pushed her to the chaotic party afterward; or let the other party take her hostage without meeting any of the assassin's conditions, and deliberately waited for the assassin to kill her!

　　So even cover and explanation are saved.
　　There is no more worry-free and more worry-free way of dying in the world, which can completely separate Xie Wei from her death.

　　Jiang Xuening only had to think about it, her scalp became numb, and she didn't dare to look back at the assassin with the knife. After the other side pushed her, she immediately said, "It's me."
　　Xie Wei outside said again, "It's only you. One person?"
　　Jiang Xuening couldn't figure out what the assassin was thinking, so he didn't dare to answer.

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

　　Just now, the servant next to Xie Wei reacted so fast that he failed to assassinate him. Immediately, people around him rushed to arrest him. When he wanted to come out, there were many people protecting him.
　　Had no choice but to flee, only this carriage was the hiding place.
　　Since Xie Wei was able to assist the Wude Dog Emperor to ascend to the throne, he had some insight and guessed that it was not unusual for him to be in the car, so he didn't need to cover up. On the contrary, he vaguely heard that Xie Wei knew the girl in the car.
　　So, there is something to talk about.

　　He touched Jiang Xuening's neck with the knife, and asked her, "Do you know your surname, Xie?"
　　Jiang Xuening knew that her life was in the other's hands, so she should stay low and hesitate for an hour, and answered honestly: "I know. And four years ago, I saved Mr. Xie's life. Although I don't know where you are, Mr. Xie has the name of a sage in the world. I also ask strong men not to be impulsive and have something to say.
　　" Said the assassin, but also said to Xie Wei.

　　Thinking that at the end of her life, in order to protect Zhang Zhe and return his reputation, she only used the favor from many years ago; it has only been a few days since she was reborn. He clearly knew more than in the previous life, and he acted smarter than in the previous life... But I
　　didn't expect that the favor would be taken out so early to save one's life!

　　Xie Wei stood outside the car, separated from the occupants by a hanging curtain.
　　He was not surprised to hear the assassin's voice.
　　On the other hand, Jiang Xuening's remarks made his eyebrows move slightly, and he felt something interesting.

　　There were no pedestrians around, and the streets were chilling.
　　Jian Shu looked at the car with a cold face.
　　Xie Wei glanced at the other young man next to him, who was wearing a strong suit with sleeves and an arrow on his back, and waved his hand slightly to signal him to go, and then he was facing the inside of the car and said, "That's right. Second Miss Ning Yu Wei has the grace to save his life, and her father is on good terms with Wei. The strong man's dissatisfaction with the imperial court can be regarded as a public affair that concerns the world; now holding a girl who is ignorant of the world, it is too much to hurt innocent people. To save the benefactor, choose the latter. If you want to come here, you don’t want to die here. If you are willing to release the second girl, you can order someone to fetch a letter so that you can open the city gate for you and send you out of the capital safely.”

　　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 open his mouth.

　　But the assassin didn't expect his luck to be so good. He casually broke into the carriage and grabbed Xie Wei's former savior, so he laughed loudly: "It seems that God has favored me and will let me live. I only heard that Master Xie was Devoted to Taoism, not close to women, I didn't expect that there would be times when you would love Xiangxiyu. Since you said that this is your savior, it is easy to want her to be safe. Why don't you 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 bitch now with one knife!"

　　Cold sweat broke out from Jiang Xuening's back, and he scolded the assassin in his heart for being an idiot! Not to mention that in the last life, whether it was King Pingnan's rebellion against the party or the chaotic party of the Heavenly Sect, it all fell into the hands of Xie Wei, this pig's brain is too far behind!
　　Can you believe what Xie Wei said?
　　He also expects to use her to threaten and let Xie Wei replace her!
　　Xie Wei wants to be willing, she can take off her head and carry it in her hands to walk!

　　There was silence outside.

　　The assassin was impatient: "I've called dozens of times if you haven't thought about it-"

　　"No need to count."
　　Xie Wei's calm voice interrupted him.
　　Jiang Xuening's heart rose to his throat.
　　Then I heard him say: "Please send Ning Er girl out, I can take your place."

　　Jiang Xuening: "..."

　　No matter what she thought, the assassin was overjoyed, only that when the legendary emperor Xie Wei was confused, he negotiated conditions with him just thinking that everyone wanted to live.
　　As everyone knows, since he moved his hand, he didn't want to go back alive today.
　　Asking Xie Wei to replace this woman is just a pretense, and taking the opportunity to kill when the exchange is approaching is his real purpose!

　　"You, lift the curtains."
　　He ordered Jiang Xuening in a vicious voice, but the knife holder didn't move from her neck.

　　Jiang Xuening then moved slowly, leaned forward, stretched out his hand, and slowly opened the car curtain.
　　The reddish skylight suddenly poured in.
　　Then I saw that Xie Wei was standing three feet away in front of her car, with indifferent eyebrows, deep eyes, and a wide robe and long sleeves, which were not dirty. The facial features are extremely good-looking, but at first glance, everyone will always notice the restrained bearing of this body. It reminds people of the high mountains, the sea, the saints who chanted in ancient times, or the hermits who harvested the flowers in the mountains.

　　His gaze fell on her across the void, peaceful and far-reaching.
　　Jiang Xuening shuddered.

　　She thought about it for a moment: In addition to a sword book and a good sword beside Xie Wei, there is another sword and piano who doesn't like to talk, who is better than a bow and arrow.
　　I glanced at it again, and there was a high-rise building outside...
　　I am afraid that when the assassin left the car and revealed himself in the sight of others, it was when he died!

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

　　The assassin behind her also glanced at it, and only said to Xie Wei: "Everyone who asked you to retreat to thirty feet away!"

　　All those with knives and swords looked at Xie Wei.
　　Xie Wei waved his hands to them, then looked directly at the assassin and said, "Please don't worry, Your Excellency, don't dare to put the lives of benefactors and friends' beloved daughters at risk, a gentleman promises, if Your Excellency is willing to let him go, he will never let him go. It will 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 shoved Jiang Xuening who was restrained by him and got out of the car with the person, pressing the knife on Jiang Xuening's neck all the way without moving it, and then slowly. Slowly approached Xie Wei.
　　Jiang Xuening was shaking all over.
　　She felt that Lord Yama was already standing outside knocking on the door.

　　Unexpectedly, when he finally got close to Xie Wei, the assassin pushed her without warning and directly raised his knife to cut Xie Wei!
　　Xie Wei's face didn't change.
　　In this flash of lightning, he only pulled Jiang Xuening, who pushed him aside, to his side and behind him.

　　Only a sharp whistle could be heard in the air, and the quiet and dangerous air seemed to have the sound of a bowstring reverberating leisurely!
　　An arrow above the tall building shot like lightning!
　　Jiang Xuening's pupils shrank sharply.
　　Xie Wei raised his left arm peacefully and calmly, and the wide sleeve robe just blocked her, leaving only a piece of snow in front of him. In my ears, I heard the sound of an arrow piercing through a human skull. It was as easy as passing through a watermelon. Then I saw a few bloody red shadows sputter out and land on this clean sleeve robe. shocking!

　　The assassin's knife was no more than two or three inches away from Xie Wei at this time, and his face had not retreated. A feathered arrow had been inserted between his eyebrows, the whole root penetrated into the skull, and the arrow pierced from the back of his head!
　　It can be seen how terrifying the archers use!
　　He was dragged backward by the arrow, and when he took his last breath, there was still a bit of disbelief in his eyes.

　　Xie Wei glanced indifferently, then lowered his hand.
　　Jiang Xuening blinked, and without the cover of his sleeves, he saw that the assassin was indeed killed by the arrow. Looking up at the next floor, a blue-clothed youth with a quiver on his back had put away his bow by the railing and retreated back into the shadows.
　　Red and white splashed on the ground, blood, and brains.

　　She smelled the bloody smell, her face turned pale, and she felt nauseated.

　　All the guards who had retreated earlier rushed back at this time.
　　Someone went to check on the assassin.

　　Jian Shu walked directly to Xie Wei's side.
　　Xie Wei's left sleeve robe was already stained with blood, and even the slender hand like a clear bamboo was stained a lot.
　　When he saw it, he took out a piece of clean cloth 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 watched for a moment and only handed out a piece of clean cloth.

　　Jiang Xuening was stunned for a moment.

　　After realizing it, she raised her hand, and her fingertips touched a little sticky. When she put her hand down, it was a few bloodstains that had splashed on her earlobe.
　　Creepy momentarily.
　　She was terrified of Xie Wei, but just now the other party didn't take the opportunity to kill her, which made her confused, and now he handed out such a piece of cloth, which made her even more panicked.

　　After hesitating for a long time, her long eyelashes trembled, and she reached out her hand carefully, took them  from the hand handed out by Xie Wei, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, sir." Unbearable memory, so she is very careful at this moment.
　　She only took a piece of clean cloth, but her fingers did not dare to touch his palm.

　　However, the was snow-white and soft, made of high-quality silk. When she took it away, one corner fell down, but it was in Xie Wei's palm, and it seemed to be scratched.
　　The long fingers curled up slightly like a spasm.
　　He stared at him, retracted his hand, and said, "Miss Ning isn't frightened."

　　Jiang Xuening wiped the blood on his ears.
　　That piece of clean cloth was stained with blood.
　　She lowered her eyes: "Fortunately, I met an adult, and I know that you must have a way to save me, so it's okay."

　　"Really?" Seeing that she wiped off the bloodstain and held that piece of clean cloth in her hand, Xie Wei stretched out his hand to her, but said lightly, "But just now I heard Miss Ning mention her old kindness to Danger in the car. , it's more like being afraid of danger and doing nothing to save it, it seems that danger is too much."

　　Jiang Xuening almost lost half of her soul when he heard this, and when she saw him stretch out his hand, she subconsciously handed him that piece of clean cloth back and forced himself to calm down: "That was deliberately told to listen to the assassin so that he could have a little hope. Not to kill me."

　　Xie Wei took that piece of clean cloth back from her hand, lowered his head, and carefully wiped his left hand, which had just been splattered with blood, little by little, but didn't answer half a word.
　　The silence made Jiang Xuening heartbeat.
　　Jianshu on the side saw this, glanced at Xie Wei, and silently put away the other party piece of clean cloth that was about to be handed out.

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

　　The blood stains on the hands are not easy to wipe off.
　　Have to go back and wash again.
　　Xie Wei wiped the action for a while, looked up at Jiang Xuening, and said, "Jianshu, send Ning Er girl over."

　　Jianshu responded, "Yes."

　　Jiang Xuening held her breath and bowed to Xie Weiyi, and did not dare to ask what the situation of the maid in her car was. She just followed Jianshu across the long street and went to Yanlin's side.

　　After the two left, Daoqin came downstairs.
　　He held a piano in his arms.
　　Xie Wei took it, raised his hand, and stroked the broken strings, as well as the knife mark that went deep into the belly of the piano, his face lost expression, and after a long time, he said: "Broken a good piano. Send the corpse. The Ministry of Punishment, ask Chen Ying to come and see me."
