Xie Zhi walked around the Jundu Mountain, and after roughly determining the sketch of the location of the Arsenal and the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Five Armies, the sky was already dark, and it was difficult to see the figure clearly from ten meters away.

He rode his horse and went down the trail of Jundu Mountain before rushing in the direction of home.

Riding his horse all the way, after entering the city, Xie Zhi began to slow down.

Although the sky has been darkened, but there are still vendors in the city, if he accidentally knocks over one of them because of the horses, he has just taken office, and the yamen has not yet been formed, so he will be impeached.

When we entered the city, we passed the bustling street vendors, and when we were about to get home, there were fewer such vendors.

After all, in the place close to Miyagi, except for some administrative yamen, it is the residence of dignitaries.

As for those dignitaries, clothing, food, housing and transportation need to be procured, they all have their own special places to buy, and they will never buy from those small vendors, and those small vendors are naturally rarely close.

However, in order to facilitate the procurement of some palace people in the palace, there will be some markets near the palace, but such markets are fixed and timed, and there is no such time.

Xie Zhi crossed the bustling vendors, thinking that he was about to arrive home, but he never expected that a cold arrow was sent from the alley.

I don't know if it was because the person was not on the right time, or because Xie Zhi was so fateful, Xie Zhi felt that danger was coming towards him, and before he could react, the red horse under his crotch actually fainted and fell to the ground.

That is, he reacted in a timely manner, and when the horse fell to the ground, he reacted quickly and rolled over, so as not to be thrown down hard.

As the horse fell to the ground, Xie Zhi finally saw where the horse was injured.

There are some traces of buckshot in the belly of the horse.

Nowadays, the only thing that can hurt people with this thing is the fire gun.

And the most important thing is that this firearm is not the new one used by Yun Zhongwei, but the old-fashioned one that is distributed to the Shenji Battalion.

After Xie Zhicai saw the reason, three or four masked black-clothed men came to him.

All four of them had that kind of short hammer in their hands, and they were about to ignite it with a hyacinth in their hands.

Although this old-fashioned firearm is much worse than the new one equipped with by Yun Zhongwei, it can be fatal if it hits the body at such a close distance.

Before the fire hammer held by the four of them was launched, Xie Zhi immediately lowered his body and ran to the corner of the wall.

Naturally, if the fuse was lit, there would be no room to return.

Unable to find Xie Zhi's figure, the fire bolts of the four of them hit the wall on the side directly with four sounds.

Their firecrackers failed, and the firecrackers in Xie Zhi's hands were not vegetarians.

After dodging out directly, he pulled the trigger on the four men in black.

The four men in black were also alert, and when Xie Zhi raised the fire, he immediately dodged and hidden.

Xie Zhi took the short gun just to protect himself at a critical time, and self-protection is only one chance, Xie Zhi's fire gun can be fired three times in a row, which is already good.

Originally, if this firearm could be hit, then there would be one enemy left.

It's a pity that the four men in black dodged too quickly, and Xie Zhi fired three times in a row, but he only hit one person's calf.

Not to mention that Xie Zhi is still a literati, and now at this time, it is an authentic military general's family, and no one travels with a sword.

Without any weapons in hand, the firearm in his hand can no longer be effective, in the face of the attack of the three people, Xie Zhi was a little cowardly, he was completely unsure of dealing with these three people!

Seeing these three people coming towards him, at this time, he could only fight to the death if he was not sure.

Facing the butcher knife in the hands of the three people, Xie Zhi was ready to fight with his bare hands.

After the three of them approached, Xie Zhi directly talked about his fist and came face to face with the three of them.

Xie Zhi didn't have any tools in his hand, the only thing he could do was to get up close.

The more urgent they were, the less effective the swords in their hands became.

But those few men in black were not stupid, and they retreated step by step, naturally leaving room for sword fighting.

After a few rounds, although Xie Zhi did not lose his life, he was also injured a few times.

Seeing that he was falling behind more and more, at this time, a team of errand soldiers came running from a distance.

The men in black watched the officers with torches approaching, and without stopping for a moment, they retreated into the distance.

A team of messengers approached, regardless of the pursuit of those people, approached Xie Zhi and shouted, "How can you be the Marquis of Yunzhong?" ”

Xie Zhi felt that he was in unbearable pain all over his body, and after seeing that the person in front of him was Zhou Xian, he didn't care about saying more, and pulled him and said, "Don't worry about me, go and chase the murderer." ”

Zhou Xian didn't say a word, and directly ordered his subordinates to send Xie Zhi home, and then began to personally pursue the three black-clothed men who escaped.

The other injured man in black who stayed at the scene was unable to escape, and was directly arrested.

Now that the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Five Armies has not yet been established, the place where the man in black is detained can only be placed in the Soldiers and Horses Division of Xicheng.

However, under this circumstance, even if the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Five Armies was formed, there was no way to put the man in black there for trial.

After all, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is not like the Three Laws Division, which has the power to examine prisoners.

When Xie Zhi was sent home by the people of the Soldiers and Horses, he happened to catch up with Xie Qian to come back from duty.

"What's going on?" No matter what Xie Qian said, he cared about his son, and when he saw Xie Zhi like this, he immediately asked with concern.

Xie Zhi didn't take it seriously, and replied with a pitiful face: "Dad, my son is going to die." ”

Xie Qian was still worried, but when he saw Xie Zhi like this, he gave him a roll of his eyes, ignored him, and entered the gate directly.

Xie Qian left, Xie Zhi didn't feel embarrassed to stay, and smiled at a few people from the Soldiers and Horses: "Let's go, let's go back." ”

The soldiers of the Soldiers and Horses sent Xie Zhi directly back to his small courtyard.

Zhu Hui did not live in the small courtyard, and when Xie Zhi left Jingshi, Mrs. Xie bought a house outside and arranged for Zhu Hui to live in.

The monthly money is the same as the other rooms of the Xie family.

Not only that, but Xie Zhi was also ordered not to go there casually.

Xie Zhi also knew what his mother's intention was, that is, to protect Zhu Hui, after all, as a woman, it was always a little inappropriate for Zhu Hui to live in her husband's house from time to time before she passed the door.

Xie Zhi also complied, and after returning to Beijing for so long, he had only seen Zhu Hui once.

Zhu Hui is not in the mansion, Xie Zhi is injured, and only Xiangyue is the only one who can see Xie Zhi's injury.

After Xie Zhi was sent back to his small courtyard, Xiangyue gave medicine to his wounds.

Xiangyue was just drugged, and Zhou Xian came, and said with a regretful face: "Yunzhonghou, those three assassins ran away, and they didn't catch up after chasing for a long time." ”

Xie Zhi was not disappointed with such a result, anyway, he caught one, and he was sure who was behind it.

Whoever assassinated him was, since he used firearms, he could still find some eyebrows.

However, the Shenji Camp doesn't have to be that stupid, right? Since he was going to assassinate him, he would use firearms in such a grand manner, because he was afraid that people would not know the identity of the assassin?

Xie Zhi smiled and said lightly: "Run, run!" If you catch it, you can know what you know, and if you don't know it, it's not much use if you catch it. ”

said, and arched his hand again: "I really have to thank Zhou for today's matter, if it weren't for Zhou Yan's matter, a certain life would have been explained." ”

Today's incident is really dangerous, and you really have to lose your life if you are not careful.

Xie Zhi didn't think much about it, he would think more if he couldn't stand Zhou Xian.

After all, as early as before, he said that Zhu Jianze was ordered by the Empress Dowager Zhou to avenge the Zhou family, and Xie Zhi had this incident not long after he went out, and it was easy to suspect Zhu Jianze.

Now that he has put the news of the thorough investigation of the person behind the man in black on himself, he is naturally very surprised.

Just when Zhou Xian was surprised, Xie Zhi opened his mouth and said: "Zhou Zhi don't have to think too much, I feel that the person who retaliates on this matter should not be on King Chong, nine times out of ten it is related to the Metropolitan Procuratorate of the Five Armies, you help me to interrogate, whoever assassinates a certain person at this time will show who has a big problem." ”

Xie Zhi spoke so sincerely, Zhou Xian was relieved, and arched his hand: "Okay, since Yunzhong Hou trusts so-and-so, he must find out about this matter." ”
