A Lady’s Tranquility - Chapter 223

“I was going to go immediately after I got the order. Just going to listen to the following people, Zhou Yinzhi went to the princess’s long room and talked for a while, as if what she had returned. Dao Qin half knelt down and buried his head under the steps. His fingers on the handle held tightly, as if trying to endure something. But he still red his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, “tell them to continue to pay attention, then go to find Zhou Yinzhi. But when I go, when I go… ”

When he went, Zhou Yinzhi was already in you Fangyin’s house, holding a knife to hold people.

How important is you Fangyin? How can he not know?

Zhou Yinzhi is invincible when he has hostages. Of course, Dao Qin is excellent in martial arts. He wants to do it again and again, but because you Fangyin is in the other party’s hands, he often goes out of danger for fear of hurting others.

Those who throw a rat into a trap are bound.

It’s not mediocrity that the other side can climb to the position of deputy commander of the royal guards all the way. In a fight, Dao Qin almost cut off his head with one of his knives. Fortunately, he retreated in time and just scratched his face.

However, it was this retreat that gave Zhou Yinzhi an opportunity.

At that moment, this man’s ruthlessness and unscrupulous means were incisively and vividly reflected –

he mercilessly stabbed you Fangyin in the back of his heart.

The blade of Xiuchun, dyed with blood, ran through her body sharply.

Dao Qin was cold all over at that time. All she could do was rush to catch you Fangyin, press her wound in a hurry, and try to call the doctor for help. Zhou Yinzhi, on the other hand, took advantage of this opportunity to escape and turned out along the wall of the backyard.

The scar between Xie Wei’s waist and abdomen has not been completely healed. He should have been resting in the room, but now he is standing in the kitchen, slowly putting a small plate of newly made peach cake into the food box.

It was afternoon outside.

The sun shines lazily, but it makes people feel no warmth.

Jiang Xuening has been alone in the house for a whole day.

On the night when you Fangyin had an accident, she hugged her cold and stiff body. No one could persuade her to pull her away. Finally, Yan Lin came back and knocked the man unconscious before returning to the room.

The whole mansion was in chaos.

The most treacherous thing is that there was no trace of Zhou Yin after the city was sealed. It wasn’t until midnight that he checked the soldiers who had been on duty at all the gates before that he found out a group of people who had been bribed by Zhou Yinzhi. It turned out that after leaving the general’s residence, Zhou Yinzhi did not delay any time and went straight out of the city to escape.

People are dead.

The killer didn’t catch him.

The next day, the news of Shu and Jiangnan finally came late. It was reported that as early as half a month ago, Ren’s salt factory and Jiangnan related chambers of commerce were all jailed for participating in treason. If there were any rebels, they would be killed first to make an example. On the one hand, the other side was too quick and hard, so few people were left who dared to get information; on the other hand, Zhou Yinzhi ordered the besieged city to be on guard, so as to seize the official road and almost cut off the news to the northwest; on the other hand, there was a long way to go. If we didn’t send a letter by the imperial post office in an urgent way, it would take at least a month for ordinary news to reach Xinzhou.

And Zhou Yinzhi knows all this.

The investigation was left to the royal guards and the government, while he came to the capital alone and played a good role in vain. He waited for the opportunity to attack you Fangyin and take away the seal letter, so as to obtain the rest of Wanguan’s money stored in the major banks and ticket houses.

It’s Zhou Yinzhi’s method, but it must be supported by the emperor.

Jiang Xuening can wake up, after listening to the return, just a wooden: “I know.”

She drove the others out, only closed the door, no one wanted to see, no news. Even to the door of the food, have been cool, but did not see her out once, more did not move half chopsticks.

Xie Wei didn’t look up at Dao Qin, but just looked up and said, “before Zhou Yinzhi started, he expected that you would give up the former and choose the latter between chasing him and saving you Fangyin. It is not surprising that this man is more vicious than you. ”

Dao Qin doesn’t think so.

The knife wound on his cheek was still fresh, and he could hardly resist the reddening of his eyes: “if you had gone down earlier or later, you would not have been poisoned by him. I’m the one who did the trick, and I’m the one who did the harm to you… ”

Although Dao Qin has been with Xie Wei for a long time and has seen a lot of things, there are few things in her life that she is sorry for, let alone such a girl’s family?

He is still a bit of a teenager after all.

Anger and guilt poured in, so that he could not lift his head and shed tears. He didn’t care to wipe hard again. There was only a repressive force in his action. He looked very embarrassed.

Xie Wei raised Mou to see him one eye, lightly sighed tone, but way: “you are not wrong, don’t kneel.”

The sword book beside him is not used to his rare coward.

He stepped forward and tried to pull him up. He frowned and said, “what’s there to cry about? Can crying save people? ”

Xie Wei only said: “the way to make up is to arrest the murderer and sacrifice the dead.”Dao Qin refused to get up. She only bit her teeth and said, “Dao Qin is willing to die for you!”

Xie Wei closed the cover of the food box, and no matter how they tossed about, he took the food box and walked slowly from him. He only said faintly: “wait for some time, wait for Ning Er to explain.”

However, when we go out for two steps, we can’t stop.

He turned around and asked, “how is LV Xian?”

Sword book a Zheng, after a moment just low voice way: “looking at nothing son appearance, all day long bury in the room manage military expenses account.”. Yesterday, there was an accountant at the bottom. He made several miscalculations. ”

Xie Wei was silent and did not ask again.

Jiang Xuening took his food box to the yard.

The injury has not recovered, the pace is not big and fast.

In the corridor outside the courtyard, I saw Shen Zhi’s clothes. Although

was saved, she could not return to the royal highness of the capital for the time being. She was wearing a pale plain plain dress, standing quietly under the flower stand of the sprout sprout and looking towards the courtyard.

Xie Wei stopped.

He also looked at the courtyard and said, “Your Highness, don’t you want to have a look?”

Shen Zhi clothes see him, silent for a long time, way: “dare not.”

Xie Wei said: “in order to save the princess, Ning Er came to the border. You Fangyin followed Ning Er, but now he is gone. Your highness is not happy, so you dare not see her?”

Shen Zhi Yi actually heard a prick from this.

She gazed at Xie Wei.

Xie Wei is very insipid, life and death things do not seem to mind, just said: “if Xie is your highness, will toss and turn can not sleep.”. But standing here doesn’t change much. If your Highness has nothing to do, you’d better not stand here to blow the wind, so as not to hurt yourself. ”

He went down the steps.

Shen Zhiyi looks at his back and doesn’t know if that little bit of hostility is her own illusion. However, at this time, she doesn’t want to know what identity Xie Wei is.

So he asked frankly: “is Mr. Xie jealous of me?”

Xie Wei didn’t smile and didn’t answer. He took his eyes and went forward.

All the servant girls are waiting outside in fear that Jiang Xuening will be summoned inside.

The food on the table has been cooled.

But the door was still closed tightly, there was no sign of opening, and it was very quiet inside.

In fact, the door wasn’t locked or tied from inside.

But no one dares to disturb her.

Xie Wei didn’t need to look at the servant girls to know what was going on. He took his lunch box and pushed the door open.

In broad daylight, the room was very dark.

With the creaking sound of the door opening, a dazzling light gradually expanded and fell on the cold ground.

A cold voice came from a dark corner: “get out of here.”

When Xie Wei heard this, he was not angry. He just walked in and closed the door.

He carried the food box and traced the sound to her.

Jiang Xuening leaned against a wall and sat on the ground in a dark corner, with his arms loose and his knees bent up. When she heard the approaching footsteps, her face without any expression suddenly crossed a deep sense of hostility. She raised her eyes and was about to attack.

However, it is Xie Wei’s figure.

Her cheeks were almost transparent, her body was thin as if it could be blown away. Her bloodless lips were fragile, but her eyes were astonishingly dark because of her thin cheeks, like the light of a knife at night, which could pierce into people’s hearts.

Jiang Xuening looked at him: “what are you doing here?”

Xie Wei put down the food box on the table, took the dish of peach slices and put it in front of her, saying, “have something to eat.”

He wanted to sit in front of her.

But the wound between the waist and abdomen had not yet healed, so he couldn’t sit down. He gently stretched out his hand, pulled a chair from the side, sat down beside her, and said to her, “Zhou Yinzhi has run away. I’m afraid he can’t catch it for a while. If you starve to death first, it will be a joke.”

Jiang Xuening noticed his action, which was a bit more stagnant than before, and said calmly, “you’re not going to die.”

Xie Wei said: “Ning Er, sometimes it’s not a person who wants to stand on the top of a mountain and climb a cliff. It’s only when he comes to the end that he knows it’s a cliff. The world is the wind behind you. Either stand where you are and let it devour you, or be forced to close your eyes and jump into the abyss. Even if you want to, there’s no other choice. ”

Jiang Xuening blinked: “Why me, why her?”

Xie Wei raised his hand, touched her cheek with his fingertips, and put a wisp of hair on the side behind her snow-white auricle.

But the sound is like the mountain after the rain, there is a kind of water mist hazy quiet.

He said: “one’s life is to lose constantly. It’s not like that. It’s like that. You can’t hold on to what you’ve lost, it will make you lose what you still have. “At this moment, Jiang Xuening is so fragile.

As if falling on the ground will fall to pieces.

His movements were so careful that he didn’t even stir the dust in the air.

She felt like a porcelain vase full of hatred and anger, unwilling and Pathetique. It was clear that there was a collision inside, but it was as cold as ashes on the outside.

There are many things in the world that are confusing.

She looked at Xie Juan, but she thought of the past at an inappropriate time. Then she asked, “that day I said you killed me. Why didn’t you ask me what happened?”

Xie Wei looked at her with his eyes and said slowly, “I don’t want to know.”

Jiang Xuening faintly smile: “you are really smart.”

In fact, that sentence is not fair to Xie Wei. She knows, but it’s beyond her control. Because she is Jiang Xuening who has experienced two generations. What happened in the past can be wiped out in other people’s hearts, but it can’t get rid of the scars in her heart.

Xie Juan is always a sharp man.

Many things are aware of the clues, can guess a general, but not necessarily to break, ask in the end.

As the saying goes, it’s hard to be confused.

He is different from Zhang Zha. Zhang Zhe thinks that if two people want to be together, if they have secrets, they can’t last long. But Xie Wei is too clever, so he is willing to be confused. To him, having secrets doesn’t hinder him, even it’s a trivial matter.

He only asked her softly, “do you want to say it?”

“I don’t want to say that,” Jiang said

She leaned back slowly, leaning against the cold wall behind her head and blinked. However, she was in a trance and thought of a long time ago, so she quietly said to him, “in fact, since I was young, I hated you the first time I met you. You are wearing a white dress, holding the piano, and you look very sick. You are despised, but you are not like those people at all, and you are not like me. The most annoying thing about you is your eyes. It seems that you know everything and everything. I even feel that you are pitying me. You let me know how different people are, and let me stand on this side of the chasm. I am nothing. The closer I am to the capital, the more afraid I am, and the more I hate you. Later, I really thought that if I were given another chance to go back to that time, I would take your knife, throw your piano, leave you in the wilderness, and let the jackals in the mountains eat you. ”

A tear rolled from the corner of her eye.

Xie Wei slowly stretched out his hand to hold her, let her lean on his leg, low way: “you should have done that.”

Her tight body finally began to quiver.

After all, Jiang Xuening showed all her weakness in front of him, but only looked at a fixed point in the void and said, “you are a very bad, very bad person.”

Xie Wei said, “I am.”

Jiang Xuening cried for a long time.

Xie Wei also listened for a long time, and then slowly said: “sometimes if you can’t be a good person, you can be a bad person, and there’s nothing wrong with it. You have to feel that you can become a different person in order to really become a different person. Break the fence that you set up for yourself, believe it first, and then do it. You’re either crushed or you’re coming. Luck always belongs to a few people, and God won’t care for us so much. Ning Er, hatred, is sometimes a good thing

Just as he hoped, she could believe that they could be together.

To break that fence.

Jiang Xuening raised her eyes and looked at him. When she bent her lips, there was no irony. But after that, there was only deep sadness and floating sorrow left. She asked, “Xie Juan, is that how you came here in your life?”

Xie Wei nodded gently: “well.”

He lowered his eyes and thought, this is how he used to come here.
