Chapter 230 knocks on the mountain and shakes the tiger

It was too late when Fang Xie returned to the courtyard where Wang Wei was captured, and when he was secretly observing, he found the figure of Qin Liuqi, the steward of Prince Yi's Mansion. Fang Jie, who was hiding in the big tree on the side of the road, didn't dare to expose it easily, because he wasn't sure if Qin Liuqi was a person with advanced cultivation.

From Fang Xie capturing Wang Wei to coming back, the period was only about an hour and a half. Qin Liuqi appeared here so soon, and there were obviously some things in this courtyard that could never be known by outsiders. Fang Xie had to secretly say that he was lucky, and it happened that there was no one else in this courtyard when Wang Wei was captured.

It wasn't until Qin Liuqi left that Fang Xie cautiously slid down from the big tree and returned quickly. Qin Liuqi left people in the courtyard, and Fang Xie wanted to see if they would transfer anything from this courtyard. But the sky is already slightly bright, and if you stay any longer, it will be easy to be discovered.

Back in the shop, the bloodstains and corpses had been disposed of. Fang Xie didn't ask her where she had left Wang Wei's body, he trusted Shen Tianfan's meticulousness.

"There's not much real progress."

Fang Xie changed his night clothes, washed his face with cold water, and said to Shen Tianfan: "Except for knowing that Luo Yao's Great General Mansion has a wizard, I haven't asked anything else. Wang Wei really didn't know what was hidden in that courtyard, and with his identity, he was just a marginal figure in Prince Yi's mansion. But it can also be seen from this that even people like Wang Wei have to be wooed by Prince Yi's Mansion, how many people he has collected over the years is only a terrible number. ”

Shen Tianfan was silent for a moment and asked, "Want to enter the palace?" ”

Fang Xie shook his head: "When Wang Wei dies, I will enter the palace immediately, and it will inevitably be suspected." Since the emperor asked Su to contact me, there will naturally be a way, I just wait. ”

He looked at the sky outside and said, "When I go out to eat something, I should go to the Martial Arts Academy, you have a good rest." ”

Shen Tian Fan snorted, and after Fang Xie changed into hospital clothes, the two of them went out for breakfast together. The couple selling hot noodle soup not far from the door had already left the stall early, and they were already very familiar with Fang Jie. I have a very good impression of this little lady, the boss and his wife. They felt that Lord Xiaofang did not have the frame of a nobleman, and he was polite and sincere. It's like the younger generation of the neighbor's family, and it doesn't look like an official person at all. They like this kind of offspring, especially if Fang Xie is still a child of a poor family, it makes people feel more cordial.

So when Fang Xie and Shen Tianfan walked out, the old couple greeted each other warmly. The two of them looked at the pair and felt in their hearts that this was the real match. The man is handsome and has a bright future, and the woman has a beautiful figure and looks like a gentle type.

"Xiao Fang, it's early."

The boss beckoned: "Still the same?" ”

Fang Xie nodded and smiled: "Lao Wang, you are not earlier, you are still the same." ”

As he spoke, he noticed that there were already people eating at the stall, but Fang Xie didn't pay attention at first. When I walked in, I realized that this person had actually seen it more than once. It was the young man who came to greet him in Prince Yi's mansion last time and nodded to him, wearing a Confucian shirt and looking like a gentleman.

The young man sitting at the noodle stall eating glanced back at Fang Xie and nodded with a smile. Fang Xie also nodded, and then sat down with Shen Tianfan across the table from the man.

"Lord Xiaofang, it's hard to go to the martial arts academy so early every day."

Lao Wang said as he skillfully underneath.

Fang Jie's attention was on the young man, but he didn't show it, he said with a smile: "With our identity, we are naturally more nervous if we are lucky enough to enter the Martial Arts Academy, and other people's starting points are much higher than mine, if you don't work harder, won't you be thrown a few streets away?" ”

Lao Wang said: "This is not right, who doesn't know that Lord Xiaofang is a genius that is rare to see in our Great Sui for a hundred years?" The nine exams of the Martial Arts Academy are excellent, except for the general Li Xiao more than a hundred years ago, who can compare? You are too humble, in the opinion of my old Wang, no one can compare to you, Lord Xiaofang, if you push forward a hundred years or backward a hundred years. As for now, let alone that. Famous young boy, others are too far behind you. ”

Hearing this, the movements of the young man's hands who bowed his head and ate noodles seemed to stiffen slightly, but they quickly returned to normal, and no one noticed that his eyebrows were raised, and he seemed to be quite disdainful.

He quietly finished the noodles in the bowl, then paid and left. It doesn't seem to be in a hurry to go anywhere, and the pace is very slow.

Fang Xie looked at his back, was silent for a while, and said in a low voice to Shen Tianfan: "This person is Prince Yi's person, maybe it is the person who replaced Wang Wei to guard that courtyard." It's just that I don't know why he's here, if it's on purpose...... Could it be that Prince Yi is suspicious of me? ”

Shen Tian fan: "Why don't I follow him to have a look?" ”

"Don't ......"

Fang Xie shook his head: "There was nothing wrong with what happened last night, it shouldn't be possible for Prince Yi to think of me so quickly." The presence of this man here doesn't mean anything, and although he seems mild-mannered, I always feel that he seems to be quite hostile to me...... If he comes with a purpose, sooner or later he will show his feet. ”

Shen Tian snorted, and recalled in his mind that he remembered the young man's appearance.

Half an hour later, Fang Hatshui slowly walked into the courtyard where Wang Wei was captured. I went all the way to the backyard, looked carefully at the window, then walked to the wall and jumped up, squatted on the wall and looked carefully for a while, and then jumped out of the wall, seemingly aimless, but in fact I kept looking for traces.

Soon, he walked to the big locust tree where Fang Xie had left Wang Wei, looked up after turning around the tree twice, and then jumped up the big tree. Because it was still early, no one noticed him on the street.

After about two minutes, he jumped down from the big locust tree, looked around, and finally chose a rooftop to jump on.

Sure enough, he found very faint footprints on the roof tiles.

……

……

Qin Liuqi glanced at Fang Hatshui, and said coldly: "You said that the person who kidnapped Wang Wei is Fang Jie, what evidence is there?" ”

Fang Hatshui pinched a fruit and threw it into his mouth, and said while chewing: "You should know that I was born to catch fast. And I'm sure I'm the best catcher in Jiangnan. If I hadn't been in such a remote county, but in the county or the capital, I would have a great reputation. Naturally, I have my own means of investigating the case, so I naturally have reason to suspect that Fang Xie has something to do with this matter. ”

"Then give your reasons."

Qin Liuqi glanced at Fang Hatshui lightly: "I know that you have always wanted to kill Fang Jie, but the prince does not allow you to kill him." Fang Xie is a very important part of the prince's next plan, if there is any accident, you should know that no one can resist the prince's anger. So don't speak in that tone, if there's evidence, just say it. ”

Fang Hatshui stretched his body lazily and said, "If I say it's related, it's definitely related." ”

Bang!

Fang Hatshui's body was hit by a strong force in an instant, and his body flew backwards like a cannonball, and was fiercely embedded into the wall. Shattered masonry and dust fell, and the air in the room suddenly became cloudy. Fang Hatshui coughed a few times, and subconsciously looked down at the hand stuck in his neck.

Qin Liuqi looked at him and said coldly: "Don't think that you are invincible in the world with some cultivation that you don't know how to obtain, and I won't say it a second time...... When you talk to me in the future, if you make a gesture like this again, I will kill you directly. Now can you tell me the basis for your suspicion of the solution? ”

He let go of his hand, dusted off the dirt, and walked back to his chair and sat down.

A trace of fear flashed in Fang Hatshui's eyes, he really didn't expect Qin Liuqi's cultivation to be so profound. In front of him, he didn't have the slightest power to fight back. The unexpected cultivation made him think that he was already very strong, but now he realized that he had indeed overestimated his strength.

He coughed a few times and swallowed the fishy sweetness that came up.

"The person who arrested Wang Wei was very smart, and when he went out, he walked on Wang Wei's footprints. But this person is not very good, and some traces can still be found on the street. I followed the footprints to find the place where Wang Wei had been discarded, and then his captors left. Another person took Wang Wei away and walked from the roof. It snowed in Chang'an City a few days ago, and although the snow has completely melted, you know that the snow is not as clean as it seems, and after the snow melts, the roof that no one cleans will always leave a very dirty trace. The person who took Wang Wei away was much more clever than the first person, but carrying a man of more than 100 catties made his figure sink slightly, so he left shallow footprints on the roof. ”

After calming his breath, he continued: "I followed the footprints to the outside of East 23rd Street, and the footprints were gone. And Fang Xie lives in the East Twenty-Three Articles...... I didn't have much to do these days, and I got up early every day. The guy selling hot noodle soup not far from Fang Jie's shop is very skilled, and I like to eat breakfast there. Because I always leave early after eating, he didn't know that I often went there. ”

"I have observed Fang Jie's living habits in the past few days, so I know that today he went out earlier than usual for about half a pillar of incense. And every day he eats breakfast alone, and today he came out with his woman. I suspect that the two of them didn't sleep at all last night. ”

After listening to Fang Hatshui's analysis, Qin Liuqi's brows furrowed a little: "This is just your speculation, and the masters who live on East Twenty-three Avenue are not only the woman next to Fang Jie." But I will mention this matter to the prince, you will honestly guard this courtyard from now on, if the person who captured Wang Wei was not because he had a personal grudge against Wang Wei but against the prince, he would definitely come again. for I took nothing with me, that I might bring the man a second time. ”

"Your cultivation is indeed good, but if you don't have any credit at all, how can the prince pay attention to it?"

Qin Liuqi got up, walked to Fang Hatshui's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "It's good for young people to be competitive, and it's better to be smarter." But to be self-aware, that's the best. ”

After saying this, Qin Liuqi left here. Fang Hatshui watched Qin Liuqi's back disappear, raised his hand and touched his neck, his eyes were cold.

After Qin Liuqi returned to Prince Yi's mansion, he boarded the boat and told Yang Yin the original analysis of Fang Hatshui. But contrary to Qin Liuqi's expectations, Yang Yin didn't seem to be surprised at all.

Qin Liuqi asked in surprise that the prince didn't seem to care? Yang Yin smiled and beckoned, "Come, you can tell Steward Qin about last night." ”

The old bustard of the Crescent Moon Building came out from behind, lowered his head and said to Qin Liuqi: "Fang Fang put on makeup and entered the building last night, although the dress was very fine, but the slave still recognized it. When he came in, he lowered his head, obviously afraid that others would see it, so when he entered the door, he ordered a private room and a clear person. I didn't leave until after the ugly hour, because I drank too much wine and couldn't break the body of the clean man. But he really didn't leave until he was ugly, and the slave can be sure. ”

Qin Liuqi was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "I have a beautiful wife at home, but I still can't help but steal it." Now the subordinates understand why Fang Xie and Shen Tianfan seem to have not slept all night. ”

Yang Yin smiled and said, "The young man is romantic...... Since this is the case, then Lone will be a favor, and use a sedan chair to send Zhuang Die to Fang Jie's shop for a while, and Lone wants to see how the Shen Tilting Fan with great cultivation can drink this jar of vinegar. ”

"Knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger?"

Qin Liuqi praised: "The prince's clever plan! ”
