Chapter 396: The Verge
Wei Nanqi pondered for a moment, then gently raised his hand and patted Sun Changxi's shoulder, signaling that he was not at ease, and then walked to the gate of the Zhou Mansion with a smile on his face.
At this moment, there is only a one-person-wide crack in the door of the Zhou Mansion, and inside the crack in the door, many family members of the Zhou Mansion are holding school sticks in their hands, looking out of the door with nervous faces, as if they are on guard against the officers and soldiers rushing in at any time.
"Shizi, why is that?"
Wei Nanqi bowed to Zhou Yangfeng very respectfully, looked at both sides of Zhou Yangfeng very politely, and smiled and learned.
Zhou Yangfeng looked at Wei Nanqi in front of him, with a smile on his face, it was just that he didn't stretch out his hand and didn't hit the smiling face, Zhou Yangfeng naturally didn't want to speak coldly to Wei Nanqi anymore, besides, Sun Changxi didn't have any brains, but Wei Nanqi was a famous adviser by Feng Yewu's side.
In addition, Wu Xuanluo, the king of Kangchuan, has also met Wei Nanqi and even Wu Duxue in front of Zhou Yangfeng several times, these two people are not fuel-efficient lamps, so try not to offend them at the moment.
"Lord Wei is polite, although my Zhou Mansion is not a famous place, but it is not something that anyone can enter casually if they want to."
Zhou Yangfeng nodded lightly at Wei Nanqi, then sneered slightly, looked at Sun Changxi behind Wei Nanqi, and said the second half of the sentence coldly.
When Sun Changxi heard this, he was even more annoyed, but now that Wei Nanqi came forward to negotiate, he naturally would not be reckless to the point of ossifying the situation.
Facing Zhou Yangfeng's cold words, he just snorted in a muffled voice and turned away.
"Today, Lord Sun is a little reckless, and I ask Zhou Shizi not to be surprised."
Wei Nanqi politely saluted Zhou Yangfeng again, which was regarded as apologizing to Zhou Yangfeng on behalf of Sun Changxi, and at the same time giving the Zhou family a face.
After all, the king of Huainan is also the king of the current domain, the princely generation, even if there is anything, Sun Changxi and he are both commoners, and these etiquettes must not be forgotten.
"Master Wei is serious, even if I have no officials, I also know the word upbringing, so naturally I won't embarrass my father."
Zhou Yangfeng's words were still full of provocation, but after saying this, he saw that Sun Changxi, who was standing behind Wei Nanqi, did not have the slightest reaction, and couldn't help frowning, and muttered in his heart.
Apparently a little puzzled that his attack had no effect.
Wei Nanqi looked at Zhou Yangfeng's expression, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, secretly saying that Zhou Yangfeng had overestimated Sun Changxi's brain.
If this kind of turn is made, where would Sun Changxi think of himself.
"I don't know if Zhou Shizi can make it convenient for me and others, right now there are many things in Kyoto, Your Majesty has an order, I don't dare to disobey as a courtier, in fact, I am just going through the motions."
Wei Nanqi was polite to Zhou Yangfeng, but today in the Zhou Mansion, he must go in.
"This..."
Zhou Yangfeng didn't expect that this Wei Nanqi was more polite than Sun Changxi on the surface, but he still didn't give up his intention to enter the palace, and looking at Wei Nanqi's respectful and smiling face, it made Zhou Yangfeng feel even more embarrassed to refuse.
Now, the Zhou Mansion has already been surrounded by Sun Changxi's officers and soldiers, and in the Shizi's Mansion, Wu Xuanluo, the king of Huainan, is still there, and he can't get out at all, once he comes in, I'm afraid that the news of Wu Xuanluo's presence in Kyoto will leak out.
Zhou Yangfeng immediately refused Wei Nanqi's request, but helplessly, Wei Nanqi's words had already moved out of Feng Yewu's name, if he refused to enter the mansion to search again, he was afraid that even if Wei Nanqi did not inform Feng Yewu, he would personally take the token of Dali Temple and forcibly enter.
At that time, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult for me to step down.
"Lord Wei, look at the four times, the servants are here, and the neighbors in the nearby streets are also under the noise of Lord Sun, and they have learned about this, if I will let you in, where is the face of my Zhou family."
Zhou Yangfeng thought carefully for a moment, then smiled embarrassedly and said to Wei Nanqi.
"Hmph, if you don't stop me, I'll argue with you again?"
When Sun Changxi heard Zhou Yangfeng talk about his own affairs, he was immediately unhappy, his face turned cold, and he retorted.
But right now, Zhou Yangfeng didn't care about arguing with him, but continued to whisper to Wei Nanqi:
"Lord Wei, you also know that my father is actually not interested in the power of Kyoto at all, and what about me, you were also present in the original situation, and I will naturally have nothing to do with officialdom in the future, and now our Zhou family has this little face left, my father has not completely retired now, after all, he is also a vassal king, you say that you have to let our Zhou family live on this face."
Wei Nanqi listened to Zhou Yangfeng's soft words, but his face did not change, he was still smiling, and after Zhou Yangfeng finished speaking, he opened his mouth and asked: "Zhou Shizi is right, but we are also acting on orders, if we are empty in your Zhou mansion, in the eyes of others, it is not to give His Majesty face, don't make it difficult for us." ”
"No, no, no!"
Zhou Yangfeng waved his hand with a smile and explained to Wei Nanqi: "I think so, Lord Wei will retreat with this group of people today, at least let my Zhou Mansion have a decent face, and then as many people come tomorrow, I Zhou will not stop me." ”
"What does Zhou Shizi mean, I'll retreat first today?"
Wei Nanqi heard Zhou Yangfeng's suggestion, pretending to be contemplative, bowing his head slightly, raising his hand to touch his chin, and asked rhetorically, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he was even more sure in his heart that there must be some secrets in the Zhou Mansion.
Maybe it has something to do with the murder of Chen's house.
And right now, Zhou Yangfeng is dealing with everyone in time, after all, all around are strictly guarded, and this secret must be in the Zhou Mansion.
Thinking of this, Wei Nanqi immediately straightened up, and no longer entangled with Zhou Yangfeng, but immediately took a few steps back, gave way to the distance of the gate, and said to Zhou Yangfeng:
"Zhou Shizi, please forgive Wei for offending today, this Shizi Mansion, Zhou will be settled today!"
Wei Nanqi raised his hand and waved, and the surrounding guards suddenly drew their long knives, seeing that they were about to break into the gate of the Zhou Mansion.
"You!"
Zhou Yangfeng didn't expect Wei Nanqi in front of him to change his face so quickly, he was very angry in his heart, and he even stammered when he spoke, and his fingers kept pointing at Wei Nanqi and didn't say a word.
"Shizi, please stay away, otherwise the swords of Wei's men will have no eyes after all, and it will not be good if you are on you."
Wei Nanqi smiled and warned Zhou Yangfeng, and then waved his hand left and right, signaling a direct attack.
"Break the door for me!"
With Wei Nanqi's order, a refreshing sound of a long knife coming out of the sheath suddenly sounded around, and the confrontation between the two sides was about to break out.
And at this moment, suddenly a voice called out to everyone, "Slow! ”。
