As soon as he mentioned Tianmu Temple and Zhanzhen's matter, the expression on Pei Yuanfeng's face also became outrageous.

This incident is an indelible sore spot for him, a fierce general who gallops on the battlefield, especially for Nian Baoyu who fights to the death like the cavalry of the Eastern Chahe Division.

So, as soon as I said that, he said, "I understand!"

I nodded.

He said again: "Let's go, I'll send you back first, and then I'll go to transfer people." ”

I nodded, and took Su Su to escort him all the way back to the East Wing.

The peace of this night is destined to have been broken, no matter how difficult it is to put together, not only the people on the west wing, but also the people in the east wing, everyone seems a little uneasy, but at this time, I calmed down, back to my room, Zhao Yuncheng has also sent someone to guard outside our courtyard, Su Su said hello to them, closed the door, turned around and saw me sitting at the head of the bed, with a pale face.

She walked over and said cautiously, "Miss, are you okay?"

I shook my head calmly.

Although she looked at me so calmly, she was even more worried, sitting on the edge of the bed, when she stroked the back of my hand, she was probably stabbed by the cold body temperature, and hurriedly caged both hands on my hands: "Miss, don't be impulsive!"

I looked up at her, "Do you think I'm impulsive?"

“……”

She didn't seem to know what to say, so she hesitated for a moment before saying, "Uncle Tie is like this, I know you are also very uncomfortable, but let's think about it in the long run." ”

"Of course. ”

As I spoke, I commanded, "Pour me a cup of tea." ”

“…… Be. ”

She went down to get busy, and I sat at the head of the bed, my eyes fixed on the candlestick at the end of the bed, and the flickering candlelight flickered in my eyes like a man's gaze.

I thought about the gaze that Ongtai had just looked.

There is also Iron Jade Mountain......

Was the murder directed against him, or against the bid for the mine, or against me?

If it is for Tie Yushan, then he should not do it in this place, he is not a person who lives in a simple place, although he runs a money village, and the money village is indeed well guarded, but the place where he lives is very simple and ordinary, if you want to assassinate, in Chengdu, any place where he haunts, you can do it!

About bidding for mines?

There is also a problem, Tie Yushan has withdrawn from the bidding, although the news has not yet fully spread, but there is also a problem, if it is really a force involved in the bidding, the target should be me, Pei Yuanfeng, and even say, people like Weng Tai - if Weng Tai is innocent. Because in terms of financial resources and strength, several of us are the most likely people.

Of course, if it is someone from these three parties - Pei Yuanfeng, it is impossible!

No matter what task Yan Qingchen gave him, I knew that he would not harm the people around me, let alone use this kind of method to deal with me!

So, Ontai ......

I remembered when I met Tie Yushan, early in the morning on the top of the mountain, Weng Tai had also appeared there, although he didn't say anything, but now that I think about it, the more people who can't see his purpose clearly, it makes me feel very uneasy.

However, if that's all there is to it, it's okay to solve.

What I fear the most is the third possibility......

The next morning, I woke up early, and in a bit of a trance, I found myself still dressed and covered with a thin quilt.

Rubbing my stiff neck and the back of my head that hurt a little, I got up, and Su Su told me that when she came back with tea last night, I had fallen asleep by the head of the bed in a daze, and she couldn't bear to disturb me, so she helped me lie down, and didn't dare to undress me, just covered me with a quilt so that I wouldn't catch a cold.

Fortunately, I slept a little more, and although my neck hurts, my mind is still clear.

Before I had time for breakfast, I went inside to see Tie Yushan first, Second Brother Zhao sent several capable people to guard a few passes inside, which was very tight, but Tie Yushan was still unconscious, and as they said before, if he wants to wake up, he may really need to fight by himself.

Returning from his room, he found the whole courtyard, and the atmosphere became oppressive.

On the side of the West Wing, early in the morning, there were even a few passers-by who had left.

Obviously, they don't want to wade into the muddy waters.

After all, no one knows that a business is not worth exchanging with his life, people like Tie Yushan are almost killed, and Xichuan has more financial resources and power than him, and he can't count too many with his fingers.

When I got back to my room, breakfast was already on the table.

But I didn't have any appetite at all, Su Su persuaded me to eat some, I swallowed two mouthfuls and put down the chopsticks, Su Su was worried, for fear that I would consume a little spirit that I had just raised recently, so I kept nagging in my ear for a moment, I was really noisy by her, so she said: "Okay, you go and get me some snacks, I can't eat these greasy, bring me some snacks." ”

When she heard this, she went away with joy.

I turned my head to look at the food on the table, and I lost my appetite, so I simply poured myself a cup of hot tea and went to sit down at a stone table under a tree in the courtyard.

The air outside was much better, and there was no suffocation in the room, and a cool breeze blew through it, which also cleared my mind a little.

I thought of the most fearful, the third possibility.

This matter is directed at me.

So, who will target me, and it is in the territory of Xichuan?

This is a little smaller than the people who participated in the bidding for the mine, but how many of these people are aimed at me?

Or are they not the people I think they are?

In the midst of the confusion, which had just felt a little clear, I suddenly heard a pleasant chirp, and when I looked up, a white thrush stopped on the treetops above my head, chirping.

However, the melodious chirp seemed to have opened a crack in my chaotic thoughts.

At this moment, Pei Yuanfeng walked in from outside the courtyard, and at a glance saw me sitting under the tree, looking at the thrush above my head in a daze, and he said, "Light." ”

I raised my eyes to look at him: "Yuanfeng, you are here." ”

"Hmm. I just met Su Su, and she said that you refuse to eat, so let me come and persuade her. ”

As he spoke, he walked up to me, looked at the cup of tea on the table, and sighed: "How can you eat and only drink tea?"

I smiled helplessly: "I finally got rid of that nagging ghost, and you're here again." ”

"I nag you when I care about you. ”

As he spoke, he sat down on the stone bench across from me, looked at my face, and said, "Didn't you sleep well last night?"

I shook my head: "I slept well, but my brain was still messy." ”

"What do you think of?"

“……”

"If you think of something, you must sue me, and don't act impulsively. ”

“……”

"You know, I don't want anything to happen to you. ”

Looking at his deep eyes, I was silent and nodded slightly: "Hmm." ”

"Tell me, then, if you think of something," he said, looking at me, "I just saw the way you looked, as if I remembered something." ”

This time, I hesitated.

He didn't rush me, just sat there and looked at me calmly, I was silent for a while, and then said softly: "I also thought a lot last night, who is this happening for?" Is it against Uncle Tie, about this bid for iron ore, or - against me. ”

He looked at me with blazing eyes: "What's your answer?"

I looked up at him, "What do you think?"

He thought for a moment, and quickly said: "Last night, I also thought about these possibilities, and the most likely one is - against you. ”

My heart sank slightly.

Looking at my eyes, he said quietly: "Are you not, this is also the answer." ”

“…… Hmm" I nodded.

Then, he let out a long breath.

If the speculation of the two of us is very probable, then if you continue to think along this line of thought, who will be the person who targets me-

Pei Yuanfeng looked at me and said, "There are a lot of people who target you. ”

As she was talking, Su Su happened to come back with a plate of dim sum and saw that we were both sitting under the tree, so she came over and put the plate in my hand, I saw that each of those dim sum was missing a small corner, and I knew that she had tasted it first, and smiled helplessly.

Su Su turned his head to Pei Yuanfeng and said, "Fifth Master, there are really a lot of people targeting the eldest lady, and along the way, we have escaped from the ghost gate several times." ”

Pei Yuanfeng looked at her with wide eyes slightly, and then looked at me again: "What's the matter?"

I sighed, and then on the road, how did I encounter the attack of those people, and how Nangong Jinhong blocked our way, these things were briefly told to him, the more he listened, the more nervous his brows wrinkled, I omitted a lot of situations, but his shrewdness, he can probably think of many things, not as simple as I said.

"They seem to have a very good grasp of your situation," he said. ”

I sighed, and then said, "Actually, that's what I just remembered. ”

"Huh?"

"When I was in the capital, Yan Qingchen once asked someone to send me a letter. ”

"I know. ”

In that letter, in addition to urging me to hurry back to Xichuan, it also said why I wanted to rush back to Xichuan as soon as possible. ”

"Oh, that's—"

"This time, it's bidding for iron ore. ”

Pei Yuanfeng raised his eyebrows, looked at me with burning eyes, I sighed, and said, "Qingchen said some things about the old lady in the Yan family in the letter, and the two of them are not facing each other very much now?"

Pei Yuanfeng nodded: "Their mother and son didn't turn their faces, but if the situation continues to develop, I'm afraid that there will be a battle within the Yan family first." ”

I shook my head and sighed again: "He told me that there will be such a big deal in the middle of the year, and he needs me to come back and help, because—after all, it is his own mother, and there are many things that he can't do too much." ”

“……”

"And I also went to Liu Qinghan's place to know that this deal was a bid for iron ore," I said, and I sighed: "I also know why he wants me back." ”

Pei Yuanfeng said: "Then what does this matter have to do with that letter?"

I looked at him and said slowly, "That letter, when the rebels attacked the imperial city, disappeared. ”
