Chapter 91: The palace maid dies
Xia Wei stood beside Xiao Changye and paced back and forth, "Xiao Changye, I don't want others to know about this kind of thing." ”
After looking around, I found no trace of the codex.
"Look." Xiao Changye sat quietly in front of the desk, carefully flipped through the letter left and right, took out a piece of stationery, and handed it to Xia Wei, "This, someone has just read it." ”
Xia Wei took it and found that there were dirt fingerprints next to the letter, which fell off when she shook it, which was a trace of freshly stained.
"Xiao Changye, what if Empress Ling's affairs are discovered?" At this moment, Xia Wei was so panicked that she was a little dispossessed, and now she could only be sure that it was taken away.
The codex must be more secret than what is written in these letters, otherwise the man would not have picked anything, but took this one away, and now the most important thing is to get it back and keep his mouth shut.
But if everyone is gathered now, the news will soon break out from this Xiluan Temple to the outside world like a plague, and if it is not gathered, not only will it not be found, but it will be like a time bomb, which may explode one day.
Xiao Changye stood up and asked, "It depends on your will, Weiwei, do you want to continue to get involved in politics and listen to politics?" ”
"I ......" Xia Wei hesitated, living in the temple is worried about its people, and it is far away from the rivers and lakes to worry about its monarch, no matter where she goes, the daily oil, salt, sauce and vinegar or drastic changes, there is always a chaos that can not be dealt with, now anyway, she has adapted to this kind of life, and it may not be impossible to live again, and she has more than ten years of family relationship with Xia Lin's little emperor, she is unwilling to give up, "I want to continue, live in the palace." ”
Xiao Changye's attitude was as determined and religious as before, and he touched her head, "If this is what you want, I will accompany you." ”
I'll accompany you, such an oath sounds far more beautiful and touching than the other three words.
This is a promise to accompany each other, a lifetime to rely on, and a promise that her mother had asked for from that man in her previous life.
Now she got it easily.
In this life, Xia Wei has never thought of being with a man for a lifetime, and she has even lost all confidence in a man, but this man, he insists on giving her confidence, can she accept it?
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, she was afraid, but now, it was only him.
She eventually reached out and hugged him.
"Now we're going to find the lost Codex sooner." Xiao Nagano said, touching her head.
Xia Wei smiled and replied, "Okay." ”
So Xia Wei called Xiaoxing over and asked who the palace maid on duty who was cleaning the courtyard today.
Xiaoxing returned the salute and replied that it was Anan.
Xia Wei asked Xiaoxing to pass Anan.
"Xiaoxing, Anan just went out from the west side gate." Xiao Qing kept looking at this place until Xiao Xing walked out, beckoned Xiao Xing over in the distance, and whispered in his ear.
Xiaoxing turned to the west gate to find Anan.
Xia Wei stood in place with her hands in her hands, and glanced back at Xiao Changye, his injuries were not enough for him to go with Xiao Xing.
Standing and watching was just useless, Xiao Changye sat down, opened the letters and read them one by one.
Not long after, Xiaoxing ran back from the west side gate in a panic, the roots of his legs were like cotton, and he fell to the ground softly as he walked, shouting, "Oh no, no, no!" ”
Xiao Changye lowered his eyebrows and put down the letter in his hand, and at the same time, Xia Wei had already stepped out.
A group of palace maids and eunuchs in the hall flocked to Xiaoxing when they heard the sound, Xia Wei squeezed in from the middle and helped Xiaoxing up, Xiaoxing couldn't use any strength on his legs, his lips faded from blood, and he grabbed Xia Wei and trembled: "Ah, Anan is dead!" ”
Before Xia Wei could recover from her surprise, Xiao Changye took her to the West Gate.
Before he had walked dozens of steps, a burst of blood came to his nose.
The more uncertain she was, as if she wanted to confirm it with her own eyes, she pinched the corner of her skirt and stepped forward, a light purple body looming out from the stacked barren fallen leaves, and the smell of rust was getting stronger and stronger in the air.
A pair of hands wrapped around her at the right time, covering her eyes.
Xiao Changye's voice was not salty or light, it was very indifferent, "A knife wiped the neck, and he died of excessive blood loss." ”
"I've seen death, and I'm not afraid." What could be more terrifying and powerless than seeing one's own mother die in front of oneself?
Xia Wei's voice choked, as if forcing herself to be calm, she took Xiao Changye's hand.
Xiao Changye was stunned, came back to his senses, and instructed: "Don't get close here." ”
Then he approached, crouched down, and swept over her body to check on the injury.
A group of people from the Xiluan Hall rushed over later, screaming and screaming, whispering and whispering, but they all stayed behind Xia Wei, far away from Anan's corpse.
"What's going on?" Xiaoxing has not yet calmed down from his panic.
Xia Wei pinched the corner of her skirt, not knowing how to answer.
"This man is dead?" Approaching a tall woman from a distance, Xiao Changye turned his head, it was Leng Yutong, and he stretched out his hand and made a gesture to tell her to stay away from the place where the crime occurred.
Xiao Changye took out Anan's hand, the death was not ugly, his eyes were closed, he was lying down, his left hand was pressed to his side, there was indeed a lot of mud and dust at the fingerprints, there was blood and skin tissue in the fingertips, and the blood on the neck had not dried up, it seemed that he had just died, and the murderer was still not far away. 33
"It's dead." Xiao Nagano stood up and ordered the guards to go everywhere to see if there were any suspicious people whose hands were scratched by their fingernails.
"Oh? The eldest princess has been having trouble lately. Leng Yuetong said sarcastically.
If it was usual, Xia Wei would definitely use all kinds of caution to go back, but now she didn't say a word, looking directly at the corpse in the barren leaves.
"Tsukiki! Don't be unreasonable! Xiao Changye stopped it.
Leng Yuetong frowned, raised her chin slightly, and said: "This person was wiped from behind and killed with a knife, presumably with a deep skill, but I just saw the senior brother holding her hand, although the dirty marks on the hand are very deep, but the mud on the fingertip is rubbed away, and there is still blood, presumably it grabbed the criminal's hand, the criminal didn't want to kill her at first, but discussed something with her, and finally failed to negotiate and killed her single-handedly, as for what to negotiate, I don't know." ”
"Xia Wei, are you okay?" Xia Yu walked out of the crowd, and directly asked Xia Wei if there was anything wrong, presumably he heard a lot of news along the way.
Xia Wei didn't say anything, Xia Yu was bored with herself, she didn't want to mention any embarrassment or embarrassment with a poker face, she just turned around, her eyes just skimmed over Leng Yuetong, and the two of them blushed in unison, and separated their eyes.
After Leng Yuetong accidentally tore his clothes, Leng Yuetong ran away, and Xia Yu went to change a set of clothes afterwards, which caused the two to come one after the other.
"Sister Huang!" Xia Lin also ran over.
Xiluan Hall is the closest to Weiyang Palace, and as soon as the little emperor heard that something happened to the people around Xia Wei, he hurriedly rushed to this place desperately.
He didn't care too much, rushed forward and hugged Xia Wei, checked whether she was intact, and after the inspection, he hugged Xia Wei again.
"Imperial sister, don't you want me." Xia Lin's soft voice before metamorphosis struck her heart, instantly turning into a puddle of spring water.
Xia Wei choked up, touched his hair, and called "Lin'er".
Xia Lin even shrank in Xia Wei's arms.
Seeing that Xia Lin was so intimate with Xia Wei, Xiao Changye squeezed into the middle of them without moving, separating Xia Wei and Xia Lin, it was good to say in the past, but now their life history has not yet been settled, and no one knows what the result will be, to prevent the East Window incident, he still can't let the two get too close.
And Leng Yuetong saw that Xia Wei and Xiao Changye were so close, and she also silently moved into the little gap between them, Xia Wei felt that Xiao Changye was a little inexplicably pushed in, and hurriedly pushed away the hard body in front of her.
Before she could get in, Leng Yuetong's sleeve was torn over, forcing her to take a few steps back, it was Xia Yu, a pig teammate.
"Cold girl, don't make trouble." Xia Yu said to her with a straight face.
Leng Yuetong couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Senior brother, why was this person killed?" Leng Yuetong asked.
Xiao Changye shook his head.
"Take Anan down, and Yipin will be responsible for the autopsy." Xia Wei gave a deep command, turned around and went back to the room.
"Master Pony!" The guard guarding the door suddenly called out Xiao Changye.
Xiao Changye was about to go back to the room with Xia Wei, when he heard the voice of the guard, he turned around, and the guard saluted him and said, "There are people outside the hall who ask to see him." ”
……
"Why do you think this sect leader wants us to report to the door?" Outside the hall stood two men who looked similar, seven-foot men, with majestic hair.
"Rest easy." The other was a little calmer and called out to his brother.
It's Wei Qing and Wei Zhao.
Wei Zhao was obviously a little anxious and scratched his ears and cheeks, and took a bite directly, "It's okay to be a little impatient about this, brother, what should you do?" Is it the sky falling? ”
Wei Qing only said: "The sect leader's orders are to be obeyed, don't you understand?" ”
Wei Zhaogang wanted to refute again, but when he saw the guards letting him go, the two entered the hall together and came to the study with ease.
Xia Wei leaned on the bench and closed her eyes, Xiao Changye sat beside her, stroked her drooping hair for a while, and held a cup of tea thoughtfully.
After taking a sip, Xiao Changye asked, "Say, what's wrong?" ”
The Wei brothers seemed to be stunned, did the sect leader know that they would go to the Three Treasures Hall if they had nothing to do, and there would be trouble when they came?
"Sect Master, the Tuoba brothers took advantage of our unpreparedness and drugged our wine and food, stunned everyone, and fled with the sword you brought back." Wei Zhao really didn't have much interest in the Tuoba brothers, and he really didn't like Tuoba Lie's stupid appearance, and he said to Xiao Changye accusatory.
"What?" Xia Wei opened her eyes, and her voice was a little raised.
It seems that the two Tuoba brothers really bothered to run to peace for one of her swords, but it was clearly not her problem, it was Tuoba Lie who snatched it first.
"Also, because he has been in Xuanming for a long time, there is something important in his hometown that needs him to go back, so he also got up and said hello and left." The air froze for a while, and Wei Zhao said again.
"Did he leave anything to say to me before he left?" Xiao Nagano said.
"Yes, he said not to look for it, there is a fate to meet." Wei Qing said truthfully.
Xia Wei: "......"
This is not the same as saying nothing.
