Chapter 109: Ask yourself frankly

Chapter 109: Ask yourself frankly

That is…

WTF?

Lu Xian was sitting opposite Xie Wei, the words were not very neat, he read them with great difficulty, and couldn't help but leaned forward to bring his head closer for a closer look: "What is written, is there some kind of code left? "

However, just as he moved his head closer to Xie Wei, Xie Wei raised his eyes and glanced at him lightly.

Under his hand, he took the stack of bank notes that were put together very naturally.

Lu Xian was dumbfounded.

Xie Wei explained: "It's not for you."

"..."

Suspicion suddenly appeared on Lu Xian's face, and he secretly glanced at the bank notes that had been neatly put together again.

She frowned, and said surprisingly: "A love letter from You Fangyin?"

"..."

A dog cannot spit ivory out of its mouth.

The haze that shrouded Xie Wei before also dissipated with the smile that melted the ice and snow. Xie Wei seemed to have regained his former indifferent and independent attitude, and said: "No."

Lu Xian said: "I don't think so. Ms. You is about to get married, and she doesn't have any contact with you, so she won't be able to write for you at this time. Then which girl wrote you the love story?"

Xie Wei frowned slightly: "What love words are not love words?"

Lu Xian's eyes did not move away from the stack of bank notes in his hand, and there was a bit of scrutiny in his eyes: "It's not written by the girl, it's very important, why can't I read it? "

The 50,000 silver bills seized from the Tianjiao hidden post who directly obeyed the orders of Gong Yicheng contained the 15,000 taels he had paid to You Fangyin before, and these fifteen thousand taels of silver bills were stacked together There are secret words hidden in the spelling.

The whole matter is about the safety of the Yongyi Hou Mansion.

Xie Wei seemed relieved after reading the message, as if the matter had been brought under control and it was no big deal.

However, Lu Xian's feeling was exactly the opposite of Xie Wei's.

It wasn't that the matter itself made him so afraid, but what made him feel uneasy and vigilant was the state that Xie Wei showed at that moment, a state that he felt should not appear on Xie Wei.

Xie Wei was really caught by his question.

This kind of handwriting, this tone of voice, and the little **** he had seen before, but there was no sign of a word. He already knew who left the word, and he also knew what was behind You Fangyin. Who is it, so I feel relieved.

Anli said that he should show Lu Zhaoyin both this matter and this word.

However…

He didn't want to.

Raising his eyes, he met the gaze from the opposite side impartially. Xie Wei is also a perceptive person, so he couldn't fail to notice what Lu Xiancai was saying.

Lu Xian said: "Do you know what I admire most about you after knowing you for so many years?"

Xie Wei didn't speak for a while.

Lu Xian twitched the corners of his lips, but there was not much smile in his eyes: "It's not your wit, nor your patience—it's because you're not close to women."

However, Xie Wei went through it from the beginning to the end, and he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong. Ning Er was his student, but neither the word nor the painting was very popular.

and…

After all, Ning Er is different from others.

First, he wanted to find out the truth of the little girl, and second, he wanted to restrain her and teach her not to lead her on a wrong path. He asked himself that he had no selfish intentions other than this, and he had no sexual desires from men and women. She is a junior, so she is open-minded, and feels that Lu Xian is worrying unfoundedly.

Xie Wei put the stack of bank notes in his hand, still didn't intend to return it to Lu Xian, said: "It's just some small tricks, they won't stand out when they play around, and it's ridiculous for people to see, you don't worry too much. "

Lu Xian couldn't help but decide whether this statement was true or false.

But looking at Xie Wei's expression, there was no difference. At this moment, I really suspected that it was my villain's suspicion: "But it's better to worry more than to think less. It seems that the trouble this time has been solved, but Did you see who the letter fell into, or did the other party make it clear in the message? If it's the latter, did you tell others about our actions in advance?"

"..."

Xie Wei's fingers pressing on the bank note froze for a moment.

Lu Xian raised his eyebrows when he saw it.

He and Xie Wei have known each other for quite a long time, so that he could tell by the subtle expression of the other party that he had probably hit something, but a wise man should stop here.

Glancing out of the dark window, Lu Xian said, "You should go back."

Xie Wei got up to say goodbye.

Before leaving, he also took the fifteen thousand taels of silver notes with him.

Lu Xian didn't stop, and sent it to the door.

But boarding the carriage back home, Xie Wei leaned in the carriage, staring at the ink on the stack of bank notes in his hand, really thinking for a long time.

When he reached the gate of Defu, he got out of the car.

Daoqin saw something wrong with his expression.

Xie Wei lowered his eyes, but he didn't know what he thought of, he suddenly smiled and said: "Tomorrow, I will go to Jiang's Mansion and ask Ning Er to come over to learn the piano. Although I don't need to go to Fengchen Palace, I must not miss my studies."

Zhou Yinzhi secretly felt horrified.

Jiang Xuening collected enough money in the afternoon, so he couldn't be reconciled to giving such a large amount of money directly to others, and these people were still hidden piles left by Tianjiao's secrets, so they couldn't intercept the money. Helping people can also make a difference.

So when she revealed the news to Xie Wei, she also made second-hand preparations.

It is intentional to trade with the other party in the evening.

The ambush in the city was too eye-catching, so he asked Zhou Yinzhi to find another name and mobilized some Jinyiwei to ambush outside the city gate, and even released the two rebels from the Heavenly Religion they had captured earlier, just waiting for this group of people to come out of the city So he intercepted and killed him to see if he could get the fifty thousand taels back by luck.

But after waiting all night, no one left the city.

When Zhou Yinzhi arrived at the yamen in the early morning of the next day, he heard his colleagues mention that the guards at the city gate shot and killed several rebels from the Heavenly Church last night. False and submissive, just waiting for them to throw themselves into the trap.

Zhou Yinzhi, who was a rebellious party of the Heavenly Religion, had dealt with them before.

People in the Jianghu are loyal but very shrewd. They can know through clues that their eyeliners have been arrested, and then take out half a letter to force them to submit. How can they fall into the link of buying the guards of the city gate to negotiate a bold business?

Unless they are contacting someone they trust!

But something went wrong.

The other party betrayed them, but instead killed them.

The things involved in it must be complicated, and Zhou Yinzhi's understanding of the inside of Tianjiao is even less clear, but he can clearly perceive the news after hearing the news suddenly. Apart from his and Jiang Xuening's planning, there seems to be a shadow behind this incident. Layers of thick, unpredictable shadows.

Bigger and more secretive.

It has to be said that what he thought of at that moment was the matter Jiang Xuening had ordered him to reveal the news earlier: could it have something to do with that young master Xie who he had never dealt with but was known for his holy name?

Zhou Yinzhi once again felt that in this treacherous capital city, he was just a small wave stirred up by the turbulent sea, not the same as the grains of sand lying on the shallow beach that were carried away by the waves. Make no difference.

Once you enter the world, you will know how big the world is.

Ever since becoming Jinyiwei Qianhu and gaining a firm foothold in the yamen, he has actually started to think about what Jiang Xuening, an insignificant little girl, can bring to him after the fall of the Yongyihou Mansion.

But this time, he found—

Even this little girl, she seems to have not found the real bottom yet.

Zhou Yinzhi came to Jiang's Mansion again, but put away his airs in front of his subordinates, just like when he first came to the capital and worked in Jiang's Mansion, he appeared humble and forbearing.

Jiang Xuening didn't wait for news from Zhou Yinzhi last night, and was still worried this morning.

Unexpectedly, just as he was thinking, he fell down.

She asked, "What's going on?"

Zhou Yinzhi narrated what happened last night and what he heard in the yamen this morning.

He observed Jiang Xuening's expression.

Surprisingly, Jiang Xuening didn't seem to be as dignified as he thought, but as expected, she breathed a sigh of relief, but then frowned again, as if she was relieved, but also added a little bit of faintness. worries.

Zhou Yinzhi tentatively said, "Do you want to investigate secretly?"

Jiang Xuening supported the corner of the carved mahogany table, sat down slowly, shook her head almost immediately, and said, "Don't check."

At times like this, the more you do, the more mistakes you make.

She said: "I already know the matter, you go back, and don't care about anything from now on."

However, Zhou Yinzhi felt that her speech today was more profound than any other speech in the past, revealing a kind of unpredictability, so that he showed a rare hesitation.

Jiang Xuening said, "Is there anything else?"

Only then did Zhou Yinzhi regain his composure. Although he wanted to ask what was the hidden story behind this incident, but remembering that she had unreasonably revealed her intention to infiltrate the Yongyi Hou's mansion that day, she was a little jealous of the little girl in front of her, and she was also afraid that she would let her go. She was dissatisfied with her own voice, and said: "It's nothing, it's just a little unexpected. Then the official will go back first, and the second girl will send someone to find me. If I'm not in the government office, you can find Wei Xi."

Jiang Xuening thought of the blushing young man she saw in Zhou Yinzhi's mansion that day, and thought that this is a good candidate, so she nodded: "Got it."

Only then did Zhou Yinzhi take his leave.

As soon as he left, Jiang Xue sat quietly for a long time, then suddenly bumped her head against the table: "It really is him, he is going to die!"

That's fifty thousand taels!

After exchanging so many things that Yan Lin gave her, posting her own body, and selling the silver shares of Ren's Salt Farm that was rising just in time, it was finally possible to get it all together.

For no reason, he was coerced by the Tianjiao gang. Although it was spent wisely, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

And she was also worried that this group of people would be cheating, so she had to make three preparations.

The first is to honestly give money from my own side, and it would be great if I can get the letter smoothly;

In fact it worked.

The other party was indeed quite trustworthy, or maybe they felt that they were willing to spend money for the affairs of the Yongyi Hou Mansion, so they should be loyal people who kept their promises, and they really handed the letter into her hands.

Second, Zhou Yinzhi was sent to ambush outside the city gate, just in case, whether it was blocking the letter or intercepting the money, it was a credit.

This didn't work out.

This is related to the third point.

Thirdly, she also ordered the news to be revealed secretly, so that Xie Wei could detect the clues and get involved in this matter, which can be said to be the last layer of protection for the overall situation.

Because she didn't dare to say that she was safe from the first two points.

This is a major event related to the survival of the Yongyi Hou Mansion.

Losing money, or even exposing yourself, become small and not worth mentioning in front of this big event.

Jiang Xuening couldn't take the risk of failure.

So she took a gamble—

She bet that the Xie Wei she knew in her previous life was secretly a powerful and frightening person. She bet that this person would have the ability to control the overall situation as long as she knew the news. She also bet that he cared about the Yongyihou Mansion, or in other words, it was a bet...

In the last life, You Fangyin's guess that has never been confirmed by anyone!

However, Jiang Xuening didn't even know whether it was luck or misfortune. This guess was almost confirmed by herself in this life this time!

May I ask, Xie Ju'an was born in Jinling and grew up in the south of the Yangtze River, and he has never had a close relationship with the Yongyi Hou's Mansion, and teaching Yan Lin was just incidental when he hosted a lecture at the Wenyuan Pavilion, and he has no personal interests, and there is no retribution for adversity Deep friendship, but only got a little bit of rumors, so he was willing to give up a lot of effort, willing to take risks to set up a killing bureau inside the city gate, the methods are ruthless, and the benefits of the actions are frightening, how can it be true that there is no such thing as the Marquis Mansion? Little relationship?

In the previous life, Jiang Xuening also knew a secret.

That is, that Xiao Dingfei who later returned to the Xiao family to play the role of a fool and make the whole Xiao family furious was not really Ding Fei's son at all!

The man was drunk at the time.

At the beginning, the ruling and opposition parties were convinced whether this person was the real son. After all, he knew everything about that year, but after a long time, he always felt that such a good person when he was a child grew up like this. over criticism.

She also has a lot of ideas about it.

So, taking advantage of that time, I thoughtfully asked him about his previous experience of "living outside".

As a result, the rascal staggered, taking advantage of her intentionally taking advantage of her while no one was in the booth, and leaned close to her, his lips almost pressed against her ear, and said, "Your Majesty thinks I'm drunk, I don't know." Will you tell the 'truth'?"

Jiang Xuening was startled and wanted to back away.

Unexpectedly, this man grabbed her sleeve with all his strength, pulled the corners of his lips evilly, and locked her with a burning gaze: "If your mother is willing to sleep with me, I will tell you, I am indeed not the one." He must not be the son of the world'."

He said that he was definitely not the son of the world!

This startled her.

However, the boldness of this person's behavior really surpassed Jiang Xuening's surprise.

She didn't expect that the other party would dare to be so presumptuous in the palace, she immediately turned cold, shook off his hand and backed away.

Xiao Dingfei's feet wobbled a little, and he couldn't stand firmly, but the smile on his lips not only didn't diminish but deepened, he even put the finger that had just pulled the sleeve of her gorgeous palace dress under his nose and sniffed lightly.

The irritating Meng Lang was carved in his eyes.

Jiang Xuening's eyes turned cold: "You are courting death!"

Xiao Dingfei raised his eyebrows and didn't take it to heart, instead he pressed his index finger on his lips, kissed him lightly, and said with a light smile: "I think it's because the empress doesn't know my situation, and keeps spying on things I shouldn't know. If that person knows what you heard me say today, I'm afraid that if he doesn't want to settle accounts with me, he must kill Niangniang first."

The palace servants who had gone to fetch the cloak for her came back at this time, and they were startled when they saw Xiao Dingfei.

She shut her mouth and said no more.

Xiao Dingfei was out of shape, he bowed obliquely to her, and then retreated from the pavilion, probably returning to the banquet again.

From then on, Jiang Xuening couldn't help but think: Who is "that person" Xiao Dingfei mentioned, and who is "he"? And maybe he doesn't intend to kill himself, then it proves that the other party has at least this ability...

But after thinking about it, I have no clue.

But Xiao Dingfei knows all the things that should be real Dingfei Shizi, no matter how big or small, so the only thing she can be sure of is: if there is a planner behind it, there must be a great relationship with the real Dingfei Shizi connect! Maybe it's the real Dingfei Shizi himself!

However, until he committed suicide in Kunning Palace, he could not break the secret.

now…

Jiang Xuening, who had her forehead on the carved lacquer table, thought of this, and suddenly raised her head again: "How is it possible?"

Frowning, she was genuinely puzzled.

If this person is Xie Wei, according to what Xiao Dingfei said, how could he not want to kill her?

No…

It is still not certain that this person is Xie Wei.

It may not be that there is no one else in Beijing to intervene in this matter. Maybe it is true that the Tianjiao gang accidentally exposed their actions and were caught by others?

The key lies in the fifteen silver notes.

If the person behind the scenes is indeed Xie Wei, and Lu Xian is there, the other party will definitely recognize the origin of the fifteen banknotes, and after a little inspection, they will find the words written on the banknotes, and then know her identity!

Jiang Xuening was afraid that the person behind it was Xie Wei, so she thought for a long time before writing those words on the bank note.

Because she didn't have more time to exchange the banknotes.

And even if it is exchanged, such a large sum of money can be found if you want to check it.

If the person behind it is not Xie Wei, of course it doesn't matter, even if other people find out, they don't know what it means. To her, it is nothing more than doing too much idle writing, and fifty thousand taels of silver was wasted; but if it is indeed Xie Wei Cutting people in and killing them, seeing the bank notes and not seeing the letter, they must have made every effort to check the whereabouts of the letter.

Paper can't contain fire.

What's more, how can she be compared with Xie Wei when she is alone and lonely?

Just in case, it's better to bow your head and admit your mistake, because she really didn't have any malicious intentions, and on the contrary, she helped the Yongyi Hou's mansion a lot. If Xie Wei finds out by himself, it will be too late to admit his mistake, and it will inevitably arouse the other party's suspicion and fear.

and…

She was still counting on that if Xie Wei would get the 50,000 taels back.

So, who actually got the fifteen banknotes?

Jiang Xuening's eyelids twitched inexplicably.

Tang'er, who had just gone out to collect the monthly money, came back at this time, but her face was a little cautious, and she said to Jiang Xuening: "Second girl, there is a person in the front hall, saying that Master Xie gave orders, please go and learn." Qin, no matter what, the homework must not be left behind."

Jiang Xuening: "..."

An ominous premonition struck.

She pressed her eyelids: "Okay, I'll go another day."

Tang'er tremblingly said: "The man said, there can't be another day, Master Xie is busy, you have to go as soon as possible today."

Jiang Xuening: "..."

In such a hurry, is he rushing to reincarnate after teaching her the piano? So the fifteen banknotes really fell into the hands of the surname Xie!
