Chapter 61: The Truth
It seemed that everyone heard the unfriendliness in Duan San's tone, and Nangong Yufeng knew that he had misunderstood himself because of Xi Yunjian's death, so he didn't want to deal with him. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info But a man like him, even if he was wrong, he never tried to apologize to anyone, let alone ask him to explain anything in person in such an inexplicable situation. So he just chose to ignore Duan San, and this attitude was already a big concession for him.
"Shaoyan, are you planning to carry Xi Cui to be your aunt?" If not, why do you treat her so differently? He must get a clear answer to this question, if the woman who Xi Yunjian remembered until his death threw himself into the arms of another man when his bones were not cold, then he would never interfere in Xi Cui's affairs even if he violated his oath to Xi Yunjian. I thought she would be different from other women, but I didn't expect that I still looked away......
"What are you talking about?" Wang Shaoyan looked at Xi Cui, and then at Nangong Yufeng, his face turned red, "Why do you think so?" ”
"Why can that ordinary girl be so arrogant in your Wang family?" Nangong Yufeng refers to Xi Cui's making a sedan chair. This kind of Xi Cui made him can't help but think of a past incident that happened in the Liwang Mansion.
At that time, he was eight years old, and he was very close to Shu Juan, the maid next to Princess Li, because the princess treated Shu Juan like a sister, although Shu Juan was just her companion. Later, he had a serious illness, and the princess took care of him day and night for two months, but the first time he went out after he recovered, he saw Shu Juan walking in the palace in a small sedan chair carried by four people. Not long after, Shu Juan was raised to be an aunt, and his mother told him that during the two months of his illness, Shu Juan climbed into his father's bed and became pregnant with a child. It was also this incident that made Nangong Yufeng have a strong sense of rejection towards the maid who served him personally, so there were no more women around him from then on, and they were all replaced by small servants.
Xiao Yi was by Xi Cui's side, he wanted to tell Xi Cui about this, but before he could speak, Xi Cui herself spoke first, she waved her hand to the sedan chair man, "You better put me down first, the prince is here, we won't be able to leave for a while, it's tiring." Without waiting for the sedan chair to land, Xi Cui endured the pain in her knees and wanted to stand up, but as soon as her buttocks left the sedan chair, the beads of sweat on her head began to ooze densely, and the green tendons on her forehead burst out.
Duan San hurriedly stepped forward to help her and looked at her knees, "You don't want your legs anymore?" The doctor said that you will have to recuperate for at least a month before you can stand on your own! Hurry up and sit down......" He said and was about to force Xi Cui to sit down, but before he could make his hand stronger, he was grabbed by Nangong Yufeng.
"Hurt? What hurt? Where is the injury? Nangong Yufeng pushed Duan San away, lifted Xi Cui's arm and looked Xi Cui up and down, and finally found that there was a cold sweat on her forehead, and there was a scar that had not completely faded under Yin Tang. Duan San said you hurt your leg? Which leg? How did it hurt? ”
Xi Cui shook off his clamps hard, and almost didn't fall down with such a cold effort, but fortunately there was a sedan chair behind him. She sat down slowly, not even looking at Nangong Yufeng. This prince of Liwang is really his nemesis, and every time he appears, there will be some inexplicable situations.
Xi Cui still remembered that they had a big quarrel in the barracks because of Qin Niang, but Nangong Yufeng had already forgotten about it, he thought that Xi Cui was angry because of his misunderstanding, but he didn't know that people were now counting new and old hatreds together, and the two were in such a stalemate.
Wang Shaoyan knew that Xi Cui was a little busy with things outside these days, and it was not good to delay it because of these trivial things, so he said to Nangong Yufeng, "Yufeng, what is the matter with you coming to me today?" ”
Nangong Yufeng then remembered that he came to Wang Shaoyan to talk about business, and almost forgot because of Xi Cui. Xi Cui's injury was the same when asked Wang Shaoyan about it. So under Duan San's angry gaze, he turned around in front of Xi Cui and walked to Wang Shaoyan's side. I was relieved in my heart, Xi Cui was different from that Shujuan, she didn't throw her arms on Wang Shaoyan.
He got out of the way, and the sedan chair man lifted the sedan chair and left with Xi Cui.
After their figures disappeared, Nangong Yufeng pretended to smile relaxedly, "This Duan San is actually still following Xi Cui, I thought that according to his temperament, he should personally infiltrate the military camp at this time to investigate the real cause of Xi Yunjian's death." I didn't expect him to be willing to follow Xi Cui like this. ”
"Yu Feng, it's really not a wise move for us to stand here and talk about a master like Duan San. He could hear it......" he said with a low voice and a smile, "Let's go inside and talk." ”
The two entered the study one after the other, and after closing the door, the two sat down, Nangong Yufeng was about to speak, but was stopped by Wang Shaoyan, he pointed outside. Nangong Yufeng is kung fu, Wang Shaoyan wanted to let him hear first if he was sure that there was no one outside. Nangong Yufeng looked at him and smiled, "Shaoyan don't worry, I have already arranged manpower when I came, and even if there are people outside your study at this moment, it can only be my people." ”
"That'll be fine." Wang Shaoyan said on his lips, his face was also smiling easily, but he was unhappy for a while, when will you Nangong Yufeng people in the inner courtyard of my Wang family be able to come and go at will? However, after all, the two are good brothers who have known each other for many years, and even so, he knows that Nangong Yufeng will not do anything unfavorable to him. It's just a little uncomfortable, and it's not enough to hurt each other's trust. "You just said something, could it be that Xi Yunjian's death has another hidden meaning?"
Nangong Yufeng nodded, "I can't say anything about this matter in a few words, I can only tell you what he said to me before he died." Nangong Yufeng was fixed, whenever he made such a move, it meant that what he was about to say was very important, Wang Shaoyan naturally didn't dare to slack off, and listened carefully, "He said that he wanted me to be careful with the Lao family and do everything possible to help the third prince." He asked me to be careful with the Lao family, and I can understand this. Because the whole thing was done by the Lao family. It is true that General Sun died in Xi Yunjian's camp, but it was not Xi Yunjian who was in the same room with him at that time, but me! We were waiting for Xi Yunjian to return to the camp to discuss the military situation, but Xi Yunjian fell asleep after a long time without seeing anyone, and General Sun Lao was alone to discuss the battle strategy before looking at the map and studying. When I was half asleep, I was awakened by the sound of fighting, and when I saw General Sun being pressed to the ground by a person, I wanted to help but found that I didn't know when someone had drugged medicated, and my body was weak and my hands and feet were weak. His consciousness was also vague, and even so, I could still conclude that it was definitely not Xi Yunjian who was pressing General Sun Lao and stabbing him with a sword at that time. Because before I fainted again, Xi Yunjian came back, and he took action to stop the man, and General Sun was still talking at that time, and he was clearly not dead...... When I woke up completely, General Sun Lao was already dead, and the person who intended to assassinate General Sun was also killed by Xi Yunjian. I recognized that person was a slave of the Lao family, and this time he received the title of Zhonglang General with the five thousand elite soldiers of the Lao family to go out with the army, and he didn't use any strength along the way to eat and drink with him, I thought he was just following a military exploit, but I didn't expect him to be a chess piece designed by the Lao family to kill General Sun Lao and blame Xi Yunjian. Xi Yunjian said that the person thought that it was Xi Yunjian who was with General Sun at first, but fortunately he came back, otherwise this black cauldron would have been carried by me. But General Sun died in his tent, and he must not be able to get out of it. Although the real murderer is his domestic slave, this incident is not enough to bring down Uncle Lao, if I tell the truth at that time, I am afraid that it will lead Uncle Lao to suspect that I am an enemy of the Lao family, and I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to me in the end. He said that if he wanted to bring down Uncle Lao, he had to make this matter bigger and suppress it, and once the truth was revealed, the Lao family would die and would be unable to escape the crime. I didn't understand what he meant at the time, and it wasn't until he suddenly committed suicide in front of me that I realized that he was going to take the charge of killing General Sun himself, so that Uncle Lao Guo thought that he had succeeded in his treacherous plan, so that he could proceed with the next step......"
"Are you saying that Xi Yunjian committed suicide? But why did Uncle Lao Guo's recital say that he was killed by Pingnanhou? Wang Shaoyan asked, "This is also deliberately arranged by you?" ”
"Not long after Xi Yunjian committed suicide, Ping Nanhou came to find him, and at that time, I hadn't woken up from the whole thing, and my mind was in a mess, so I could only be arranged by Ping Nanhou. He took all the corpses and found someone to write a report in person, and handed it to Uncle Lao Guo in my name, and I only learned about the contents of the report later. Nangong Yufeng thought for a moment and continued, "Before Xi Yunjian died, he asserted that the Huai'an Hou Mansion was already in a desperate situation, and he might be killed sooner or later, and he only advanced this result by doing so. I didn't believe it, so I secretly went back to the capital a few days ago, and went to the Hou Mansion to see it in person, only to know that what he said was true. Shaoyan, I always feel that the whole thing happened too weirdly, there is a strange smell everywhere, Xi Yunjian seems to know something but can't say it, and this matter is inextricably linked with the Lao family...... The strangest thing is that he wants me to protect the three princes! What's the matter with the three princes here? The thing I don't look down on the most on weekdays is this person, who is idle all day long, and the whole kid! Although the current emperor is a little hypocritical, as long as the third prince keeps to himself, he will not end up with the second prince. What's more, although I am a general, no matter how he is, how can he ask me to protect him? ”
Wang Shaoyan didn't look at him, he lowered his head and looked at his fingers tapping on the bookcase, making a regular light sound, "I heard what you said and I was a little confused, and I couldn't figure it out in many places, but judging from the things that happened in the capital these days, the fall of the Huai'an Hou Mansion and the death of General Sun Lao were all a chess game that someone began to arrange since the first emperor was alive, and it seems that every step is aimed at the Lao family, but I always feel that there are other people besides the Lao family!" If you think about it carefully, what else did Xi Yunjian say? Maybe he already knew the whole truth before he chose to die. ”
Hearing him say this, Nangong Yufeng frowned and thought about it carefully, but he repeatedly recalled all his interactions with Xi Yunjian on the border, and he never remembered any details related to this matter.
After waiting for a long time and not seeing him say anything, Wang Shaoyan knew that what Nangong Yufeng knew should have already finished speaking. But what he said today, in connection with his previous inferences, all the clues were built together in fragments by the core of the Lao family, forming an incomplete picture, although the Lao family is the key, not only the Lao family is the key.
At this moment, the door of the study was suddenly opened, and Duan San walked in with a gloomy face, followed by a man dressed in black, this person should be the person arranged by Nangong Yufeng. Duan Sanyi threw out the black cloth that the man in black was masked, and looked at Nangong Yufeng coldly, "What you said is true?" Did Xi Yunjian really commit suicide? ”
Nangong Yufeng nodded, glanced at the black cloth on the ground, and thought that the person he brought was a brain, but he didn't expect that he was as stupid as a pig at all! Wearing black in broad daylight doesn't this force others to find out?
"If so, who should I seek revenge on?" Duan San muttered a sentence and left.
After Duan San left, Nangong Yufeng slowly walked in front of the man in black, glanced at the extremely eye-catching black clothes on his body, sighed, and then suddenly kicked on the man, almost kicking him out of the door, "Get out!" Later, let me see a black cloth on your clothes, and see that I don't chop you!" ”
The man in black ran out with a roll and a crawl.
Looking at his back, Nangong Yufeng smiled self-deprecatingly at Wang Shaoyan, "Why did you say that I didn't save Duan San in the first place?" Look at it, what a good skill, it was actually wasted on a woman! This kind of thing can only be done by Xi Yunjian. No matter how much I like a woman, I won't value her so much! Then he thought of Xi Cui again, and couldn't help asking, "Oh, by the way, Xi Cui is injured?" How did it hurt? ”
Wang Shaoyan didn't know how to explain, so he could only say perfunctorily that there was an accident to save Yunting.
Nangong Yufeng knew that he didn't want to say it, so he didn't ask anymore, he just said that he wouldn't take women too seriously, he couldn't slap himself in the face like this.
With that said, he prepared to leave.
Although he reminded himself not to care too much all the way, he couldn't help but think of Xi Cui's painful face when he forced himself to stand up, how much hurt he must have suffered, was it really that painful? Since you are injured, why don't you take care of it in the house, and what do you have to run out of? Wang Shaoyan actually allowed her to go out like this, could the maids in the Wang family's mansion go out of the house casually?
He rode on his horse and walked while thinking, and unconsciously reached the door of the VIP building. The sedan chair men who were carrying Xi Cui's feet were sitting in the teahouse opposite and chatting, and they talked about Xi Cui, which attracted Nangong Yufeng's attention.
At this moment, Xi Cui is meeting with Rui Niang in the VIP building with those newcomers recruited from all over the world, they have been doing almost this thing in the past few days, and their eyes are almost dazzled. There are so many names in my ears that sometimes I have to ask the person's name again in the blink of an eye.
There was time in the middle, Xi Cui remembered that Duan San said on the road that he would go back to get something and never followed, and remembered that Nangong Yufeng was still in the mansion, and she was a little worried that the two would have a conflict. So he called Huan Huan Xi Xi to help go back and take a look, who knew that Huan Xi Xi came back in a blink of an eye as soon as he went out, saying that Nangong Yufeng and Xi Cui's sedan chair man were sitting in the opposite teahouse chatting, as if they were talking about something big, Nangong Yufeng's appearance was not quite right.
Xi Cui hurriedly asked Xixi and Rui Niang to help him out of the private room, and walked from the secret door to the back door of the VIP building. Usually Duan San will appear at this time, but at this time she has to stay at the back door and wait for Xixi to call the sedan chair man over.
After a while, the palanquin man came. It seemed that Nangong Yufeng didn't follow, and Xi Cui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Because she was worried about Duan San, Xi Cui explained a few words to Rui Niang and prepared to go back to Wang's house.
But he ran into Duan San on the road.
At this moment, Duan San was holding a large jar of wine in his arms and drinking while walking, and he was very swaggering along the way, and the pedestrians on the road avoided him when they saw him from afar.
Xi Cui asked the sedan chair man to put himself in front of Duan Sanyan, "How can the third brother look like this?" But what did Nangong Yufeng tell you? She didn't know why she thought of Nangong Yufeng at this time.
Although Duan San was a little drunk, his legs began to drift, but he was very clear in his heart, he shook his head and looked at Xi Cui, and shook his head violently, "He said that he actually committed suicide!" I didn't want to believe it, but I still believed it in my heart! How could he kill himself? What should I do if I am called like this? He told me to come here and wait for him, and he said that he would take me to start a new life. But he committed suicide! ”
Of course, Xi Cui knew who he was talking about. Seeing that Duan San was going to continue talking, for fear that he would really say something with serious consequences, he hurriedly called Xixi to knock Duan San unconscious.
Fortunately, Huanhuan also came out of the Wang family, so he dragged Duan San back with Xixi and the two.
They just entered Wang's house, and a few small servants guarding the door hurriedly came up to pick them up, and Huan Huanxi carried Duan San to help them send them to Luju. While walking, he told Xi Cui that General Nangong had rushed into Wang's house in a hurry for some reason just now, and went straight to Luju, this should still be in Luju, tell Xi Cui to be careful, this was not very good-tempered when he was originally the prince of the world, and now that he has become a general, his temper is even more amazing. These little guys are all masters of seeing the wind and steering the rudder, seeing that they are in charge of their own affairs, their mothers are all welcoming Xi Cuiba, of course they have to follow, although these words are a little more talkative, but at least let Xi Cui know that she is concerned about her affairs.
As soon as Xi Cui walked to the door of Luju, he saw a few little girls running out in a panic, and hurriedly grabbed a question, only to know that Nangong Yufeng smashed the big fish tank in the main courtyard of Luju, and now he was still losing his temper, no one dared to stop Luju, and Mother Qi told them to hurry up and inform the master.
What does this Nangong Yufeng want to do? I actually ran to Wang's house to make trouble! Worried that Yun Ting would be frightened, Xi Cui hurriedly ordered the sedan chair man to speed up his pace.
Sure enough, Yun Ting was already crying, and Wang Shaoyan seemed to be saying something, but there was still a clanging sound of collision...... It should be Nangong Yufeng who is still smashing things! (To be continued.) )
