The moment Qin Xiao's figure appeared at the staircase, Xiao Hou Ye couldn't help but take a step back, but behind him was the railing, unless he jumped from the fifth floor, there was no way back.

Qin Xiao was drenched all over his body, holding a knife in his right hand, and the blade was dripping blood downward.

Raised his eyes and swept over, swept over the little marquis and Jiang Qianxing, and finally landed on Qiu Niang's face, and suddenly grinned, this young man's smile was like a spring wind, Qiu Niang's eyes were red, and tears had rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

Qin Xiao didn't walk over immediately, walked to the antique round table in the middle of the room, put the bloodstained big knife on the table, sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, drank it in one gulp, seemed to feel that his mouth was still a little dry, poured another cup, and seemed to exhale with satisfaction after drinking it.

Qin Xiao's terrifying strength made this little marquis already understand at this time that he had done an extremely stupid thing today.

"Many years ago, an old man taught me how to stand in this world." Qin Xiao sat on a chair and looked up at the little marquis and Jiang Qianxing on the verandah, and said calmly: "He told me that all living beings in this world are like stars in the sky, everyone has their own way of living, and in order to survive, everyone's way of living is not necessarily wrong. It's just that a man wants to live up to the sky, and he only needs to remember four words, that is, there are clear grievances. ”

Jiang Qianxing clenched his hands into fists and stared at Qin Xiao with a cold expression, not acting rashly.

The little marquis couldn't help but lean towards Qiu Niang's side.

Jiang Qianxing suddenly laughed, nodded and said, "That old man is right, the grievances are clear, and it is indeed what a manly man should do." ”

Qin Xiao removed the letterhead from his arms, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it away, Jiang Qianxing took it with his hand, Qin Xiao had already said: "Tsing Yi Lou has a banquet, you must arrive before the time, I have already arrived." ”

The corners of Xiao Houye's eyes twitched, his lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't make a sound.

"If others treat you well, you have to keep it in mind, because in this world, there will never be too many people who treat you well, and everyone who treats you well should always remember that if you have the opportunity, you should double the reward, because these people deserve to treat him well." Qin Xiao said slowly: "But if someone wants to harm you, don't be polite, don't let anyone who doesn't want you to live, don't let him have a chance to live." Whether it is revenge or revenge, do not have fear, and do what you have determined without scruples, even if you are broken, you don't have to be afraid. He stared at the little marquis in brocade, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "I have always remembered the words of the old man, and I will never forget them in my life." ”

Jiang Qianxing smiled and said: "Contemptible Jiang Qianxing, Tsing Yi Tang sitting uncle, this post is from a contemptible person, but the one who wants to meet Qin Lingzhi is the little marquis!" ”

"Little Marquis?" Qin Xiao's eyes fell on the little marquis in brocade, the little marquis concealed the panic in his heart, deliberately straightened up, thinking that Qiu Niang was still in his hands, he still had some confidence, and sneered: "Yes, it is Ben Hou who wants to see you." ”

"You've arrived."

"But I still don't know, who is the person who invited me to come over?" Qin Xiao sat on the chair, calm as water: "Now that the matter is over, it is time for the master to stand up." ”

"There are indeed many marquis in Kyoto." Jiang Qianxing smiled faintly and said: "But the contemptible can guarantee that all the marquis in Kyoto City combined, they are not as noble as the marquis of Huaiyang." He glanced at the little marquis as if intentionally but unintentionally, but the little marquis frowned slightly, and he didn't know if it was because he was dissatisfied with Jiang Qianxing for revealing his identity, or because Qin Xiao's attitude made him very unhappy.

"Huaiyang Hou?" Qin Xiao sighed, "I've never heard of it before. ”

Qin Xiao had something

Si, he was silent for a moment, and finally said: "I just arrived in Kyoto, and I don't know how many marquis there in Kyoto." It's just that I don't seem to have met the little marquis, I don't know which little marquis you are, why do you want to meet me in such a way? ”

Qin Xiao lowered his head and was silent, the rain outside had not stopped, and there was a hidden thunder in the sky, after a long while, he saw Qin Xiao bowing slightly, with a look of sudden realization: "Understood, I see!" ”

"What do you understand?" The little marquis of Huaiyang frowned.

Jiang Qianxing said with a smile: "You have never heard of Prime Minister Xiahou?" Huaiyang Hou is the little son of the Prime Minister! ”

Qin Xiao was stunned for a moment, and when the little marquis of Huaiyang saw Qin Xiao's expression, he thought that he was suppressed by his identity, snorted coldly, and raised his head slightly.

"Qin Xiao, what evidence do you have that Ben Hou is greedy for military spending?" The little marquis of Huaiyang was a little anxious, and said angrily: "You spew blood." ”

Qin Xiao said lightly: "With this strength and this courage to plan the case of embezzlement of military spending, there are not many people in the Manchu Dynasty, and the little marquis is of course one of the few people." Maybe someone has noticed this matter, but because of the fear of the identity of the little marquis, no one dares to cause trouble, more things are better than less things, they are all blind. He shook his head and sneered: "The case of embezzlement of ink military expenses was only revealed yesterday and yesterday, and today you are going to put me to death, the reason is very simple, the little marquis knows that the case of embezzlement of ink is related to me, so he hates me to the core, and wants to kill me and then quickly." ”

Qin Xiao smiled faintly: "There are a large number of broken knives stored in the warehouse of the Ministry of War, involving three yamen, I have always wondered, these three yamen, no matter which one of them has the strength to carry out such an amazing act in secret, who is planning behind the scenes, using the three yamen to embezzle military expenses." Staring at the little marquis of Huaiyang, he said: "Until just now, I still couldn't guess who the master behind it was, and now I finally understand that the one who planned all this behind the scenes was, of course, for you, the little marquis." ”

The corners of Huaiyang's little marquis's eyes twitched, and Qin Xiao sighed: "The Prime Minister of the State is in a high position in the middle of the court, and the officials of the six yamen are all respectful in front of the Prime Minister of the country, not to mention the chief officer of the three yamens. It's just that the prime minister of the country is highly respected and the pillar of the empire, of course, it is impossible and disdainful to do such a thing. The little marquis is the son of the prime minister, of course the chief officer of the three divisions of the yamen does not dare to offend the little marquis, if the little marquis asks them to do something, because of the prime minister, they dare not do it. ”

"What do you mean?"

Qin Xiao said lightly: "Connecting the three divisions, greedy for military spending, and filling your own pockets, this matter is simple to say, it is not easy to really do it, not only do you have extraordinary courage, but you also need careful deployment and superb skills, but the little marquis has the guts, but whether it is wisdom or skill, it is really worrying." You don't even do bad things, how can you control such a well-thought-out thing? Using the market gang to kill me, this method is really not clever, I am curious, behind the little marquis's operation of the greedy ink, is there another master to guide me? ”

The little marquis of Huaiyang stared at Qin Xiao with a cold face, and finally said, "Yes, what if everything is done by Ben Hou?" Do you really think that the saint will punish Benhou for this? It's you, who actually ruined the matter of Benhou and made this matter known to everyone, this is damned! ”

"You want to kill me, I can understand that." The corners of Qin Xiao's lips flashed with a slight smile: "However, the little marquis of the dignified Xiahou family actually kidnapped a boat lady and used an innocent woman to force me to throw myself into the net, this method is really flattering." He looked the little marquis up and down and sighed, "I suddenly doubt my own judgment again now." ”

After a while, Qin Xiao raised his hand, took the bloody big knife from the table, and said slowly: "You are the Hou Ye of the Xiahou family, you are born rich and noble, and a toe is worth more than us little people, and our two lives should be no different from the two ants on the ground in the eyes of the Hou Ye." ”

"Your humble lives are worthless!" Xiao Hou Ye sneered.

"Qin Xiao, you shouldn't have come to Kyoto." Xiao Hou Ye smiled coldly, moved his steps closer to Qiu Niang's side, and said, "Aren't you here for her?" Now her life and death are in the hands of this marquis. He snatched the big knife from the hand of a strong man in green clothes on the side, put the blade on Qiu Niang's neck, and said sharply: "Ben Hou can slaughter her with one knife now." ”

Qin Xiao looked calm and calm, and said with a smile: "Little Marquis, do you know why I dare to come over today when I know that Tsing Yi Lou will set a trap?" The reason is simple, I didn't want to get out of here alive today. ”

Her eyes became firm, and she was not afraid, but turned her head to look at the little marquis, and looked directly into the eyes of the little marquis of Huaiyang, although she couldn't speak, but the look in her eyes was clearly saying, I am not afraid of you.

"Little Hou Ye, have you seen it?" Qin Xiao let out a hearty laugh, pointed at Qiu Niang, and then pointed at the little marquis with his finger, and said sarcastically: "She's not afraid of you, she's really not afraid of you!" ”

Qin Xiao nodded and said, "So it's worth exchanging our two lives for the lives of the little marquis." By the way, there is also this Uncle Jiang of Tsing Yi Tang, plus your life is even more worthwhile. Little Hou Ye, you can do it now, as long as you kill her, I guarantee that you and Uncle Jiang will definitely be thrown down from the fifth floor, although the Prime Minister will definitely kill me to avenge you afterwards, but I have no regrets about exchanging my cheap life for your two lives. He looked at Qiu Niang and asked, "Sister Qiu Niang, are you afraid of him?" ”

Qiu Niang is so smart, knowing that if Qin Xiao really doesn't care about his life, he will not go into the Longtan Tiger's Den alone, at this time, he is nothing more than threatening each other with the little marquis, as long as he shows the slightest fear, it will be very disadvantageous to Qin Xiao.

The little marquis of Huaiyang was extremely angry, and he wanted to kill Qiu Niang with a knife, but he also knew in his heart that if he really did something to Qiu Niang, the little monster in front of him would never let him go, and this Tsing Yi Building would become his burial place.

Jiang Qianxing didn't say anything for a long time, and finally said at this time: "Qin Xiao, you take it away, the matter is over, let's treat it as if nothing happened." ”

"Nothing happened?" Qin Xiao smiled disdainfully, stared at Jiang Qianxing and said, "Uncle Jiang, there is something I almost forgot to ask you, not long ago, several assassins attacked and killed me in the middle of the night, but I don't know if it has anything to do with you?" We are all men, what we have done, don't be without the guts to admit it, I just want to know an honest answer! ”
