The Beautiful Land - Chapter 88
Xi Fuwei didn’t hesitate long and decided to go ahead and take a look.
Now this situation is different from last night. Last night, something happened suddenly. There were only three people in this yard, and Shen Thilan could handle it. She didn’t stand up and could say that she knew her martial arts was low and didn’t mess with her boss; now in broad daylight, A group of Jinyi guards are reporting to Chen Thielan, if Xi Fuwei continues to hide, the impression on her colleagues can be imagined!
Besides, if the group of people in front can’t stop her, no matter how good she hides in the back, it’s no use.
Just cautiously came to the front, only to see Tan Lan, dressed in fox fur, standing under the corridor, with Yu Kedi on his side, everyone else was gone, and it seemed that there was nothing to worry about around him?
She was about to inquire, but noticed that the two of them had very solemn faces. They both looked at the front yard wall, holding their breath, and seemed to listen carefully.
After a while, someone over there ran over in blood, it was Geng Zhi: “My lord, it is the assassination of Duke Dingguo!”
“What’s the situation?” Shen Qianlan asked in a deep voice, hearing the words, the haze in his eyes was like dark clouds.
Geng Zhi said: “The Lord of the country is safe, but the left and right attendants were unprepared, and several of them were attacked and killed by crossbow arrows in the alley. Our brother was also injured while supporting.”
Looking down at the blood stains on his body, “The subordinate killed the other two people, and the blood is theirs.”
“Where is A Jingren?” asked Shen Qianlan, “Is he still regaining consciousness in the alley in fright, or did he continue to return to his residence??
Geng Zhi hadn’t answered yet. There was already a shocked voice in front of him, and he said with an aura: “You Qing! What are you saying? Is Lao Tzu such a timid person!”
Then he said, “I think those assassins in the daytime actually hide near your residence. Obviously, they didn’t put you in the eyes of the Jinyiweiwei, and felt uneasy, so I turned back to look at you.”
Shen Pilan gave an “um” and said, “Anyway, you didn’t come back because you were afraid of meeting someone to assassinate you after you go back.”
“…” Xu Jingchang walked through the Chuhua Gate with an ugly expression, and said, “What the **** is going on? Jianwen’s remnant?”
“Investigating.” Shen Pilan was noncommittal, “Did you send someone back to see Miss Xu?”
Xu Jingchang just remembered now, and hurriedly sent someone to pick up Xu Jingyuan.
Xi Fuwei’s face became a little ugly when she heard this, she glanced at her eyes dark blue, bowed her head and said nothing.
I don’t know if he noticed her reaction, Shen Dulan said, “My place is small, and there are differences between men and women. It is not convenient for Miss Xu to come.”
“Does this girl also live here?” Xu Jingchang raised his chin towards Xi Fuwei and said, “I used to be a beautiful lady. What’s the inconvenience! The two girls just came to join Jingyuan.”
“…” Shen Qianlan stared at him without a word.
Xu Jingchang had no choice but to say: “I have come to your site, who would dare to bully your people? If Jing Yuan is ignorant, can he still not understand this kind of humanity? Even if she doesn’t understand, I will look at her, can you? ”
He also reminded, “This Jining is your responsibility. If we make a mistake here, you will not escape!”
Shen Qilan said: “If Miss Xu does something inappropriate after coming, then I can only send her to Yanzhou Mansion or other health centers.”
Xu Jingchang has been pampering him, and he just walked around and was frightened by the sudden assassination. At this moment, he was a little wilted and said: “Youqing, you divide the house and I ask someone to clean it up. Let’s take a break. ”
Then he said, “When Jing Yuan comes, you will surely bring the cook, and you will be exposed by then.”
After they said a few words, Shen Pilan asked Xu Jingchang to settle in the east wing where he lived.
He is calling his subordinates to discuss matters.
Seeing that no one was driving herself, Xi Fuwei followed into the main hall, got an embroidered stool in the corner, and sat down obediently.
The colleagues in the middle looked at her and all went to see Shen Pi Lan, but Quan Dang did not see Shen Pi Lan.
So after a while, the two school lieutenants stayed outside to guard against being heard. Everyone in the room began to discuss the murderer behind the assassination, and Xi Fuwei also participated smoothly.
Everyone did not discuss a few words and decided the approximate target of suspicion.
It’s just that a few of the general and small flags are controversial, because one group suspects Jianwen’s remnants, and the other group suspects King Han or King Zhao.
Those who suspect Jianwen’s remnants are righteous: “The adult is the son of the emperor and his army, and after the hero of Jingnan, he also has a relationship with the crown prince; Dingguo is the loyal son of the patriarch, and his majesty regards it as a nephew. , Why can’t your Majesty, take it for granted to the adults and Dingguo?”
“Jianwen Yuni did have this motive, but don’t forget that whether it was an attack on an adult or a death under the hands of Dingguo, it was all from the other party’s crossbow arrows.” Those who doubted King Han or King Zhao said, “Not a handful Two crossbow arrows, not even ordinary crossbow arrows! We have all seen the momentum, and we have seen the arrows in private, but they are Lianbows! Lianbows are Yuanrong, and they are highly valued even in the army. They are not equipped with elite soldiers. What’s more, they are living in the middle of the world? That is to say, His Majesty King Han and His Royal Highness Zhao Wang, who grew up in the army with his Majesty, are the most convenient to get this kind of crossbow, but there are also reasons to assassinate the adults. The reason for also attacking Dingguo The Eight Achievements are to plant the remnants of Jianwen! But in fact, it has been almost ten years since the battle of Jingnan. Over the years, the remnants of Jianwen have not acted a lot, and the loss is huge. Where can they still get such a family background?”
“Can’t get the bottom of the family? Don’t forget that the battle of Jingnan was not a day or two!” The opponent sneered, “When Jianwen was defeated like a mountain, would he not want to keep a hand? Otherwise, over the years, how did the remnants work tirelessly? Picking things up?”
They fought with each other. Xi Fuwei, because it was the first time to participate in such a discussion, and because she didn’t know much, she didn’t dare to make a sound. She listened silently, and was surprised secretly: “So in the past few years, Jianwen has acted a lot? Did you serve a lot?”
However, the people have always been calm. Even before Yu Kedi said that Jianwen’s remnants would not become a climate, it was as if Jianwen’s remnants ceased to exist after Yongle Emperor ascended the throne.
However, in the mouths of the general banner and the small banners, it seems that Jianwen’s remnant toss has not stopped, and there is a meaning to continue.
Xi Fuwei felt that this shouldn’t be due to the fact that Shandong was not close to Yingtian Palace and the news was not well informed. Eighty percent of it was Emperor Yongle who gave the seal to prevent the world from knowing that Emperor Jianwen and his supporters were acting.
This is also a matter of reason. After all, whether Emperor Yongle was a normal superior or his uncle seized the position of nephew, Emperor Jianwen was not considered mediocre when he was on the throne, at least he did not pit the people much. Many people can’t help but sympathize with this young emperor. .
If everyone in the world knows that the rest of Emperor Jianwen has not given up so far, the consolidation of Emperor Yongle’s throne will inevitably be even more difficult.
They discussed it for a long time, no one could persuade anyone, and finally decided to ask Chen Qianglan’s opinion.
Chen Qianlan thought it was the second king that was more suspicious, because the place where he lived seemed undefended, but in fact, there were several Jinyi guards scattered around, and there were sentries around the clock.
Under this circumstance, if you can touch it in the night without knowing it, it must be an insider.
“Jianwen Yuni has no such ability.” After Shen Thilan said these words, everyone was silent for a while, and they agreed.
Xi Fuwei thoughtfully.
The next step is to arrange an errand for Tan Lan, and be sure to find out the clues of the two days’ assassinations. After having substantial evidence, report to Emperor Yongle.
“Your next errand is to accompany Miss Xu.” After arranging for a lap, there was nothing to do with Xi Fuwei. In the end, he called her to the front and exhorted, “I will talk to Xu Jingchang and Miss Xu herself. Explain, let Miss Xu not embarrass you anymore…I don’t have a maid here. The only female servant under my staff is you. Miss Xu is here, and you can only be held responsible.”
He said, “The study and my bedroom are definitely not allowed to come near.”
Xi Fuwei nodded and said yes.
Of course she was reluctant in her heart, but she didn’t have the confidence to refuse.
After all, even if Shen Thilan does not negotiate with the Xu family siblings, let her greet Xu Jingyuan… What can she do?
“There is a traitor among our people. Be careful when you come and go.” Shen Xiaolan glanced outside and whispered, “I am very busy these days and I have no time to take care of every subordinate.”
Xi Fuwei said: “My lord, since we have a gangster here, why let Dingguo’s brother and sister come to live here? If something goes wrong here…”
Shen Pilan said: “This traitor. Since I dare to speak out in public, I have a sense of measure… The Xu family’s brothers and sisters are highly valued by your majesty. Even if your majesty has given an order to let them go to the north, we can’t take off their safety. It doesn’t matter whether they are in front of us or not. So A Jing is willing to take the initiative to move over, and it saves us the effort of running on both sides.”
He is really busy now, and hurried away without a few words.
Xi Fuwei went to the back and continued to clean up her residence. In the middle of this, several school captains came to clean the courtyard.
But not for her, but for Xu Jingyuan’s stay.
These are all martial artists, and they are very neat to sweep the courtyard, and they are done in a short time, and they come over to ask Xi Fuwei if he wants to help move the furniture or something.
Xi Fuwei didn’t actually have any large luggage, but in order to get closer, she asked them to help move several cabinets, change the layout, and took advantage of the situation to stuff a purse with broken silver as a gift.
She was young and beautiful, and generous in her shots, and soon won the favor of her colleagues.
After moving the cabinet, I went out, and didn’t have to ask her who came out, so I took the initiative to talk about some errands and Jining’s things.
“It is said that Miss Xu is not a good friend.” One of the lieutenants also looked around and told her after a long time. “Fortunately, we are on our site now. If she does anything excessive, you can do it. Ding Guo Gong went over to cry when he was in front of the adults. Adults have always protected their shortcomings and will definitely make the decision for their own people.”
“Don’t cry too often. Keep this hand and use it when you really can’t hold it.” Another said, “Why the lady from the government office is here on our site, you don’t need to hold it too much. . When it’s unbelievable, those methods that don’t hurt others might not be unusable. As long as they do it in a high-sounding style and leave no traces, they are their own people inside and out. Who would turn their elbows outward?”
As he was talking, a young man came over there, saying that Xu Jingchang had invited him.
Of course, Xi Fuwei was invited to speak.
