Chapter Seventy-Five: Long Xingwei

But I saw a girl dressed as a maid standing there, although she was dressed as a maid, her temperament was not at all like an inferior girl who was used to serving people.

"Thank you for the girl's help, I don't know if the girl is ......"

Liu Shuangli bowed: "I accompanied my young lady to come here unintentionally, but I didn't want to see two adults arresting the assassin, the young lady was frightened for a while, but fortunately, the assassin failed to commit the murder, and the two adults worked hard." โ€

The guard frowned: "The girl knows martial arts?"

Liu Shuangli nodded: "It's been a little bit since elementary school." โ€

"Who's the girl's?"

Liu Shuangli saluted again, turned around and helped Shi Qiong out from behind the rockery.

The uninjured guard looked Shi Qiong up and down for a long time, there seemed to be doubts in his eyes, and he asked a few more questions as usual, seeing that Shi Qiong was just frightened, leaning on her girl weakly, her face was so pale that she couldn't ask much, so she had to let it go first.

The guards didn't say anything to let them go, and Liu Shuangli and Shi Qiong didn't dare to walk away casually, so they had to sit on the stone bench under the pavilion and wait.

I saw that the uninjured guard took out a whistle, and when it blew out, a sharp whistle echoed in the garden. After a short time, several people rushed out from all sides, and when they saw the situation here, their faces immediately changed. The guard whispered a few words to them, two of them turned to leave, and two more stepped forward to salute Liu Shuangli and Shi Qiong.

The two girls were frightened. One of them said, "The situation in the garden is very important today, and the two young ladies have witnessed the situation, so they must stay for questioning, and please forgive me." โ€

Liu Shuangli and Shi Qiong could not have anything to say, nodded and agreed. Seeing this, the guard did not say much, and led the two of them to an empty room not far away, closed the door and locked it, leaving two more to guard the door.

Seeing that there was no one around, Shi Qiong sat down on the chair as soon as she fell, and she couldn't stop beating the armrest of the chair in annoyance, until her hand was red and painful as if it was on fire, she relieved herself, and said to Liu Shuangli angrily while rubbing her reddened hand: "What did you go out just now, you have nothing to do to help those two officials, let them find you, that's it, why did you recruit me out if you have nothing to do." Well, now that we're all locked up here, we can't go anywhere, my reputation has ruined you all at once, and after a good visit, what has become of me is a joke for others. You, how can you let me meet people in Beijing in the future?"

Shi Qiong said sadly, and Qi Qiran burst into tears.

Liu Shuangli listened silently, and didn't know how to reply for a long time, so he could only be stunned by Shi Qiong's continuous accusations.

I don't know how long it took, Liu Shuangli listened to the calluses in her ears, and she was also groggy, and her empty stomach made her lose her energy at all. Hearing Shi Qiong's constant accusations turn into yelling that she was hungry, she straightened up, thinking if she could ask the guards guarding the door for food. Just as he was about to knock on the door and call the guards outside, he heard a noise outside, and it seemed that many people were coming here.

Sure enough, after a while, the door was pushed open, led by a young man, about twenty years old, wearing a blue and green satin embroidered official uniform, as soon as he entered the door, he held his hands and saluted, his sharp eyes swept over the two, and finally fell straight on Liu Shuangli: "Hello two young ladies, I don't know if you can have lunch?"

Shi Qiong was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly wiped away her tears, and shook her head again and again and said no.

The corner of the person's mouth was raised, and he didn't say much, and with a wave of his hand, he sent a bunch of food in.

"Please use it slowly, Xu will come later. Saying that, the visitor took a deep look at Liu Shuangli again, waved his hand, and turned to leave.

Although he was really hungry, Liu Shuangli didn't have much appetite, and after eating something casually to fill his stomach, he stopped moving his mouth, and most of the food sent went into Shi Qiong's stomach.

The man said he would come later, but he really came later.

At this time, Liu Shuangli was holding the water sent by the guards, waiting for Shi Qiong to clean his face, when he heard a sound outside, and the door was pushed open without knocking.

I don't know if this person knows that the people in the house are awaiting trial and has no concerns, or if he is rude and used to it, and he never cares about the woman's boudoir.

Standing at the door, he roared in a loud voice: "Two young ladies, are you full?"

Shi Qiong was startled, and the face towel in his hand fell to the ground.

Liu Shuang picked it up from the busy house, put it in the basin to wash it, and then handed it over to the guards along with the basin, and then Shi Qiong, who was still frightened, responded to the visitor.

"Then please come with Xu. The person who came did not pay attention to the person who came by, but gave an order to the next person, and turned around first.

Shi Qiong was startled: "Where are you going?"

The person who came slowed down his steps, and replied without looking back: "Long Xingwei, Xu Xing." As for where to go, don't ask, Miss, you will know when you go. โ€

"Dragonโ€”Dragonwalkerโ€”"

Shi Qiong was dumbfounded.

Long Xingwei, an intelligence collection and interrogation agency under the emperor's personal jurisdiction, this is the name that even her uncle is afraid of when he hears it, and it is an existence that everyone in the capital is afraid of, from the emperor to the common people.

How did she get into this ......

This is a gamble that her whole family can't afford to mess with!

Shi Qiong couldn't walk at all, so he could only move forward with Liu Shuangli's hard support, and barely kept up with the subordinates who led the way.

You'll know if you really go.

After only half walking, Liu Shuangli recognized that they were being taken to the same pavilion that caused them trouble.

At this time, the pavilion has changed from the previous desertion, there are already more than a dozen men in the same color official uniform as Xu Xing, and in front of the stone table in the middle of the pavilion, there is a person sitting lazily, a young man wearing a red cotton satin official uniform, with a flying fish complement on his chest, and a handsome and cold face.

Seeing them being brought, he just glanced lazily at them, and then withdrew his gaze.

After retreating from the subordinates who led the way, Xu Xing led Shi Qiong and Liu Shuangli to the pavilion, first motioned for the two to kneel down with their hands on the ground, and then took a step forward and knelt down on one knee: "My lord, the person has been brought." โ€

The man in the seat rested his cheek with one hand, his eyes half-closed, and there was no response for a long time.

There were no words on it, and Xu Xing didn't dare to say much, just kneeling on one knee.

For a long time, so long that Liu Shuangli thought that time was going to stand still, only to hear a lazy and long voice from above: "Which one is shooting the stone?"

Xu Xing raised his head at this time and replied, "It's this maid named Yang Qi." โ€

"Maid?" The man sitting in the seat seemed to have just woken up from his dream, half-turned his head, lowered his eyelids and looked down, "There are still maids with such skills in the Zhenguo Mansion, I thought that this kind of thing could only appear in the Jianning Marquis Mansion, and I didn't want the Zhenguo Mansion to learn it." โ€

Xu Xing's face twitched slightly, and he coughed lightly as if unintentionally: "My lord, this Yang Qi is not a maid from the Zhenguo Mansion. โ€

"No, then where did she come from?"

"Today is the birthday of the sixth lady of the Zhenguo Mansion, and I invited some relatives to the mansion to celebrate, and Yang Qi came with her young lady. โ€

"Oh," the man sitting in the seat seemed to wake up at this point, and his eyebrows blinked slightly, "Interesting, where did her young lady come from, Jianning Hou Mansion? I haven't heard that Jianning Hou Mansion and Zhenguo Mansion have a relationship, our Long Xingwei news is ugly?"

Xu Xing coughed lightly again: "My lord, this has nothing to do with the Marquis of Jianning's Mansion?"

"What's wrong? There are even more people in the capital than the Marquis of Jianning?"

"She's not from the capital. โ€

"Oh, where did that come from?"

"The aunt of the Yushi Cheng Mansion, the Shi family, the political envoy of Xi'an. โ€

"Xi'an, Shi family?"

"Yes!"

"It's a great mansion too?"

Xu Xing lowered his head: "It doesn't look like it's powerful." โ€

The man sitting in the middle half raised his eyebrows, and said sarcastically: "Isn't it powerful?" But I heard that this young lady walked around this Suiyuan and the assassin who broke into here, is it because she has a powerful girl by her side, and she is bold. โ€

These words frightened Shi Qiong, at this time, she was no longer familiar with the world, and she also heard the danger in the words of the man sitting in the seat. She raised her head in horror and said tremblingly: "Big--sir, I didn't mean to go here, it was--because I felt uncomfortable and unhappy, so I wanted to find a quiet place-place to calm down, so-that's why I came here unintentionally, Yang Qi, why didn't you speak, you know, I really didn't come here on purpose, you say, say." Believe me, sir, I- I really just got here by chance, not intentionally, sir, I don't know what this place is, my lord......"

The cry like madness made the originally peaceful garden seem to shake, but the man sitting on the pavilion still held his cheek with one hand, not only did his body not move, but even his half-squinted eyelids did not change in the slightest.

Liu Shuangli didn't respond to Shi Qiong's crying, she just raised her head cautiously to look, and after a while, she noticed that the man's other hand had been playing with the smooth pebbles, and the few ordinary sized stones she had shot at the black-clothed assassin before.

Liu Shuangli was slightly puzzled, seeing that this person was so calm and calm, it didn't seem that he had no understanding in advance. His face was so calm, and he seemed to have made up his mind in his heart, so wouldn't his question just now be superfluous? Liu Shuangli didn't believe it, thinking about what kind of origin Long Xingwei came from, and how could he sit in such a high position, how could he be incompetent? Since people have come here, they don't say how long the time is, just look at sitting so steadily in this pavilion, it doesn't seem like it's short, with all this time, they won't figure out where they came from, and they won't come to ask again until they meet someone, this is obvious, it's a complete joke, and it was deliberately said to her and Shi Qiong.

Only Shi Qiong couldn't know, seeing that the people above ignored her, she fell into infinite fear, she didn't know what crime she suffered when she went to Beijing, first she was looked down upon by the second princess in the Zhenguo Mansion, she was ridiculed, she vented and walked around, and she was able to meet assassins to kill people, and now, she was suspected by the spy head Long Xingwei of being related to assassins.

She was afraid, really afraid, in fright, she could only kowtow again and again, crying, while repeating her previous words, saying that no one had told her, had stopped her, she didn't know how to meet an assassin, she didn't know anything, she didn't know!
