Chapter 407: The Handle

Wei Shutong's face was blood-red, his eyes were like eating people, his fists were clenched, and his whole body trembled. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Hua Xiangrong said with a smile: "It looks like a man like this, but it's a pity that it's useless, and it's still a waste in his bones." He seemed to disdain to say anything more to Wei Shutong, looked at Qi Ning, and said with a smile: "Jin Yihou, do you think Wei Shutong doesn't know that I don't know where I came from?" He doesn't even want his wife for me, what do you think he can't do? ”

Qi Ning sneered: "Who are you?" ”

"I want to tell you, too, but if I tell you, you will surely die." Hua Xiangrong sighed: "Actually, I don't want you to die yet, but I don't care if others want you to die." ”

Qi Ning smiled indifferently and said, "You want me to die, do you have that ability?" ”

As soon as Qi Ning tried his skills, he immediately understood in his heart that although this Hua Xiangrong's light skills were extremely high, and there was even a strange kung fu that made him lose his mind, but other than that, this young woman's fist and foot kung fu was not very good.

Hua Xiangrong smiled and said: "Don't worry, Master Hou, if one day I really want to take your life, you won't be able to run." Suddenly, his arms stretched out, and he jumped off the wall like a cloud.

Qi Ning took two steps forward, but Wei Shutong had already shouted: "Someone is coming, ......!" ”

"Stop shouting." Qi Ning stopped in a deep voice, "What if people come?" Master Wei thinks your men can catch up with her? ”

Hua Xiangrong did a good job, but it was late at night, and it was really difficult to catch up with her.

Wei Shutong gritted his teeth, his eyes leaked a fierce light, Qi Ning snorted coldly, and said, "Master Wei, where did this woman come from, you shouldn't know it, right?" ”

Wei Shutong's face was ugly, but he still arched his hand and said: "Master Hou, the lower official...... Hey, it's hard to put into words! ”

Qi Ning smiled faintly, turned around and walked into the house, Wei Shutong hesitated, and followed.

After entering the house, Qi Ning sat down by himself, didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly, "What is her origin?" ”

Wei Shutong hesitated for a moment before he said, "Back to the Hou Ye, in fact, ....... In fact, she is a dramatist. ”

"Drama?" Qi Ning frowned, secretly thinking that this world is actually a lot of tricks, staring at Wei Shutong, Wei Shutong explained: "Last year, when the official celebrated his birthday, many officials came to congratulate him, and the king of Shu also went to the mansion to say goodbye...... Xia Guan knew that the king of Shu liked to listen to operas, so he .......! ”

Qi Ning smiled: "Lord Wei is good at doing what he likes. ”

"Master Hou, that Li Hongxin is the head snake of Xichuan, although he nominally retreats behind the scenes, he is still a tree with deep roots in Xichuan." Wei Shutong shook his head and sighed, and sat down on the side: "The lower official is in Xichuan, and he said that it was the history of Xichuan's assassination, but if Li Hongxin made it difficult for him, many things would be difficult to do." After a pause, he continued: "At that time, I found a random drama troupe, and this flower wanted to be among them, and the lower officials were also confused for a while, so ...... So leave her behind. ”

As soon as his words fell, he heard a "bang" sound, Qi Ning slapped his palm on the table, Wei Shutong was startled, but saw Qi Ning's arm stretched out, and the gold medal had been shown in his hand, and sneered: "Wei Shutong, in front of Ben Hou, you are still vague, Ben Hou asked you, Pu Jia Pavilion assassination, are you involved?" ”

"Xiaguan...... Xiaguan didn't ......! Wei Shutong changed color.

Qi Ning said coldly: "Pujia Pavilion assassinated, Li Hongxin made a bitter plan, the ultimate goal is Ben Hou, Ben Hou did not die, are you very disappointed?" ”

"Master Hou..... Why did Master Hou say this? Wei Shutong's pupils constricted.

Qi Ning said lightly: "You are young when you are the marquis, so you can deceive at will?" Stared at Wei Shutong: "What is the truth about the throat stabbing incident?" ”

Wei Shutong frowned and said, "Master Hou, the lower official..... Xia Guan really doesn't understand what you mean, Throat Stabber...... The Throat Assassin is the ...... of assassins who have recently been rampaging in Chengdu! ”

"The Throat Assassin is just a story he made up for the assassination." Qi Ning said lightly: "You don't have to say that you don't know. Lord Wei, Ben Hou has already reminded you before, you are a person sent by the imperial court, there is only a cloud on your head, that is the emperor, and there is only a big tree behind you, which is also the emperor. ”

Wei Shutong hurriedly said: "Xiaguan understands. ”

"You don't understand." Qi Ning shook his head: "If you understand, you won't be embarrassed by Li Hongxin." Wei Shutong changed color and said: "Master Hou, the lower official .......!" Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Qi Ning raised his hand to stop and snorted coldly, "You don't have to argue, Ben Hou came to Xichuan this time to save you." ”

"Help me?" Wei Shu was stunned.

Qi Ning leaned back in his chair and said slowly: "Actually, Master Wei knows better than me in his heart that you are already standing on the edge of the cliff. The first emperor asked you to come to Xichuan, which proved that Master Wei was a smart person, since he was a smart person, many things should be very clear. His eyes were cold, "I was stabbed in the Pujia Pavilion the night before yesterday, you are close at hand, don't say that you can't see the clues." ”

Wei Shutong broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead, and his expression was a little flustered.

He is a member of Xichuan, and he should be sophisticated, but at this time, facing a young man like Qi Ning, he feels that this young man's eyes seem to have seen through his heart and liver, and he is a little infiltrating.

"I only want to ask you, what will happen to Lord Wei after leaving the court and the emperor?" Qi Ning smiled faintly: "Master Wei, no matter where you and Li Hongxin go, whether you are using him or he is using you, or you are using each other, you know one thing, your status comes from the imperial court, Li Hongxin values your value, maybe it is also this, if you leave the imperial court, you are nothing, and you will lose the use value of Li Hongxin...... Don't think he'll treat you as one of his own. ”

Qi Ning's words were like an awl, piercing Wei Shutong's heart, Wei Shutong's face twitched, his face looked a little pale, and his forehead was sweating, but he still tried his best to appear calm, and asked softly: "Master Hou came to Chengdu this time, is it ...... Does the emperor have any other secret decrees? ”

Qi Ning picked up the teacup and asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" ”

Wei Shu was stunned, and suddenly said: "Master Hou, the lower official...... Xia Guan has actually done his best, and some people want to...... wanted to attack Heiyanling before Xiaguan, but Xiaguan kept delaying and tried his best to resist, so he waited for Hou Ye. ”

Qi Ning frowned and asked, "Are you deliberately delaying?" ”

"Can't you see it?" Wei Shutong smiled bitterly, "I don't know if Master Hou has seen the excerpt presented by the lower official." ”

Qi Ning bowed slightly, and said, "What the excerpt says is not clear, you did it intentionally." ”

"Master Hou is right." Wei Shutong hesitated, stopped talking, and finally asked: "When Master Hou saw the excerpt, did he think the Xichuan Black Rock Cave incident was strange?" ”

Qi Ning said: "Lord Wei, you are like that, obviously you have something to say but it is not easy to say it, the emperor Shengming, how can you not see it." Seeing Wei Shutong's eyebrows tightly locked, with a complicated expression, he frowned and said, "Master Wei, so far, you know your situation. In fact, I can also see that you are in a predicament now, and if you hesitate a little, you can think of the consequences yourself, so I said that I came to Chengdu this time to save you. ”

The corners of Wei Shutong's eyes twitched, he lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said, "Master Hou, the lower officials have a negative grace and a negative imperial court, it is really ...... It is a sin that deserves death. ”

When Qi Ning left Beijing, he had already keenly felt that there must be something strange in Xichuan Assassin Shi Wei Shutong, this trip to Chengdu was to explore the truth, at this time, I heard Wei Shutong say this, and knew that the matter was already eyebrows, but he still said calmly: "Are you guilty, whether you deserve to die, Ben Hou will not judge, but as long as you tell the truth, have the heart to protect the court, and have the intention of defending the emperor, some things may not be irreparable." ”

Wei Shutong sighed: "It is difficult to escape the blame of the lower officials, I just hope to ...... I only hope that in the future, the court will punish the crime, and the Hou Ye will be able to intercede with the emperor for the lower officials and let go of the lower officials' families in the capital. ”

"Oh?" Qi Ning said: "Lord Wei's family is still in the capital?" ”

Wei Shutong smiled bitterly: "Xiaguan's mother and two children are now in the capital and are taken care of by the imperial court. In fact, I have a history of local assassination in Dachu, and I have families who stay in the capital. "I didn't say much.

Qi Ning already understood that the family members who stayed in the capital were actually hostages.

Soon after the little emperor ascended the throne, of course, this was not done by the little emperor, everything could only be the will of the first emperor.

In this case, leaving the family members of the local officials in the capital, called taking care, is actually a hostage, and using this as a means of controlling the local officials is also a kind of powerful skill.

"Master Wei, I want to know, you just said that someone wants you to attack the Black Rock Cave, is that person Li Hongxin?" Qi Ning's gaze was compelling, "The rebellion in the Black Rock Cave, are it all you and Li Hongxin who are planning to blame?" ”

"It has nothing to do with the lower officials." Wei Shutong immediately said like a curse: "Master Hou, the lower officials don't dare to deceive, Bai Tangling went to the Black Rock Cave, and the lower officials didn't know about it, and then the news of Bai Tangling's killing came, and the lower officials were also surprised, so they were ready to send someone to find out what the reason was." ”

"Then why wasn't it found out later?" Qi Ning said in a deep voice: "Bayali, the master of the Black Rock Cave, said that he was worried that the government would misunderstand, so he specially sent someone to send a letter over, explaining in the letter that Bai Tangling was not dead. But you still sent troops to besiege the Black Rock Cave. ”

"This ...... This is the confusion of the lower officials. Wei Shutong's voice was a little soft, "That letter, the lower official did see it, but ....... Li Hongxin suddenly came over at that time and told Xia Guan that Heiyan Cave was going to rebel and that he must immediately send troops to encircle and suppress him, and Xia Guan handed him the letter, but he only glanced at it and said that the Miao people were treacherous and changeable, and he couldn't believe it. ”

"You have been in Xichuan for many years, don't you know the habits of the Miao people?" Qi Ning snorted coldly, "Li Hongxin's words can make you lose your mind and easily send troops?" ”

Wei Shutong's face turned a little pale, his hands trembled slightly, he hesitated, and finally said, "Master Hou, don't hide it, Li Hongxin...... Li Hongxin held the handle of the subordinate in his hand, and he ....... Although he didn't say it explicitly at the time, his tone was already threatening, and if the subordinate did not send troops, he would ...... It's going to get the ...... out there! ”

"Handle?" Qi Ning frowned and said, "What handle?" ”

"It's my lady, he'...... He knew how my wife died. Speaking of this, Wei Shutong leaned softly on the chair as if he had collapsed.
