135. Death, light as a goose feather
The west of Jingzhou City is not like being snubbed by Hong Jipeng. Finally, Chengfeng Hall still recognized Yang Wentian, and led him to the living room of Chengfeng Hall without confiscating the entrance fee.
The old servant went to report, but no one served or served tea. Yang Wentian looked at the small and simple room and smiled secretly in his heart. In any case, this is the last time, and from then on, he Yang Wentian has nothing to do with the Hong family, Jingzhou, and Nangong clan.
Hong Jipeng came late, as if he hadn't woken up.
"Hall Master Hong is so interested, he can take a nap until Shen Shi." Yang Wentian scoffed.
Hong Jipeng didn't take his words at all, sat lazily on the chair, and yawned, "Lao Tzu is not free for you." The second master is not a good person to serve. ”
Yang Wentian smirked, "Second Young Master, is this a good errand?" ”
Hong Jipeng glanced at Yang Wentian proudly, "It's really a chore, the Zhuangzi outside the city has to make a lot of trouble." I was not satisfied with it twice and insisted that I made it vulgar. Lao Tzu will call the painter to come to the door tomorrow to paint, and how he says how to paint, this is always good. ”
Yang Wentian nodded, with a clear look, "It turns out that Hall Master Hong is busy." No wonder, he didn't even know that the second young master was investigating Xiaoye Village. ”
Hong Jipeng was stunned and sat up straight, staring at Yang Wentian, "What Xiaoye Village?" After a while, he said in a foul language: "His grandmother's, that matter has nothing to do with my Hong Jipeng!" Suddenly, he laughed, "Hmph, the second young master is checking Xiaoye Village, are you anxious?" Completely ignoring Yang Wentian's frowning brows, "Thirty thousand taels!" For so many years, I, Hong Jipeng, have never sat on the ground to raise prices, you should give this money. ”
Yang Wentian said coldly: "What nonsense are you talking about?!" “
"Lao Tzu is talking nonsense? Hmph, even Nangong Jin said that I was an honest person, since he checked Xiaoye Village, what would you say if I went and said something to him? “
Yang Wentian sneered, "He didn't tell me, and he didn't tell you when he wanted to, but let the surnamed Qin check, what do you think will happen?" ”
"Cut, what am I afraid of!" Hong Jipeng laughed at Yang Wentian, "Lao Tzu is not afraid, you kid is afraid, hahaha......." ”
Yang Wentian shook his head, "I came here to remind you for the last time in Master's face. Nangong Jin is not a fuel-efficient lamp, if you want to live, it's best to think of a way by yourself. He will investigate Xiaoye Village, I don't believe he will not suspect the cause of Master's death. He stood up and arched his hand, "Farewell, I, Yang Wentian, am righteous to you, Hong Jiaren." ”
Hong Jipeng blocked Yang Wentian, who was about to go out, "Are you not giving money?" Don't forget, you also have a part in my old man's affairs! ”
Yang Wentian glared at him fiercely and didn't say a word.
"It's useless to stare at Lao Tzu." Hong Jipeng laughed evilly, "The second child is very good to talk to Lao Tzu now, you want to think clearly." ”
Yang Wentian suddenly laughed, "I don't care, what can I do if I tell him?" Do you still think that your second master will really believe you? ”
Hong Jipeng roared into the sky, "Boys, it's skinned!" Out of nowhere, some people ran out one after another, slowly surrounding Yang Wentian.
"Want to do it?" Yang Wentian stared at Hong Jipeng coldly.
"I still have a fucking account with you!" Hong Jipeng also took two steps fiercely, almost facing Yang Wentian, "Isn't it you, who deducted Lao Tzu's Jiangling satin!" Let Lao Tzu lose money! Hmph, a total of 50,000 taels, otherwise, don't want to go! ”
Yang Wentian was motionless and sneered, "I don't want to kill you, I don't want to stain my hands." Before I came, I gave the evidence of your killing of Master to the Second Young Master, what do you think he will do? Also, these people can't stop me, do you really think I'll come alone? ”
Hong Jipeng suddenly shot a palm and hit the vital point, Yang Wentian took a few steps back to dodge, "Fuck, you slept with Jia's family, you killed Ye Hui, you killed Xiaoye Village, and it was Lao Tzu's bird matter!" My old man, you dare to say that you didn't do it?! ”
"Of course I didn't. It's you from start to finish. Yang Wentian did not show weakness.
There was shouting at the door, getting louder and louder.
Yang Wentian smiled, "Heard? Staring at Hong Jipeng, "I'm leaving, you play slowly." A few steps out of the living room. For him, from today onwards, there will be no more Chengfeng and Leshuitang.
Hong Jipeng wanted to stop him, but he was stopped by the hall members who rushed in through the back door, "Hall master, Leshui Hall, the people from Leshui Hall have come in!" ”
Half a moment late, Yang Wentian had already disappeared.
**********
The shouting and killing in the west of Jingzhou City lasted from afternoon to evening. After receiving the news, Lord Pan of Jingzhou Mansion immediately found Nangong Jin. The result was that the government came forward to seal off a piece of the west of the city, preventing ordinary people from entering and leaving, and Nangong Jin asked the Iron Knife Hall to maintain order on the surface, and secretly cooperated with the people of Leshui Hall to kill the Light Chengfeng Hall. But what is really hiding in the shadows is the hundreds of people in Qifengzhuang led by Cheng Zhaofeng, with only one purpose, after the first chaotic battle, cooperate with the side with the largest number of people to kill the other party.
Cheng Zhaofeng only understood at this time that in this game, Yang Wentian didn't care about Leshuitang at all, he just wanted to find a reason to fight cleanly, and according to Nangong Jin, he retreated. It wasn't until the last order that I realized that Nangong Jin didn't really trust the Iron Sword Hall, and if they didn't have the strength to protect themselves, it would be impossible to give up.
**********
It was getting late, and Yang Wentian walked on the wilderness path alone, and in a few quarters of an hour, he could get out of Jingzhou. It is not unreasonable to choose to do it today, because a few days earlier, a letter from home said that he had negotiated with Jingwangfu, and as long as he left Jingzhou at this time, someone from Jingwangfu would take him to De'an.
De'an has always been a place outside the world, and since the official inauguration of King Jing, the fourth prince of the Holy Lord, De'an has been out of the control of the imperial court and has almost become a country within a country.
To be able to catch King Jing's Mansion, I should really thank Ye Hui. Back then, everyone thought that Ye Hui was blowing nonsense, but Yang Wentian believed him. The reason is very simple, because everyone in the capital knows that the Holy Lord has not set up a prince, and the fourth prince King Jing is more favored by the Holy Lord than the third prince Yuwang and is more likely to inherit the unification! Because of this, Yang Wentian and the Ye family have been secretly in contact.
It's just that Ye Huiniu brags too much, in fact, he has never seen King Jing at all. After Ye Hui took him to meet King Jing's subordinate officials a few times, everything seemed to be over, except for some people who claimed to be subordinate officials of De'an from time to time, who came to ask for money and people. At that time, he questioned Ye Hui, but who knew that his neck was crooked, and he insisted that if he was there, he would not introduce him to King Jing. Therefore, Ye Hui is gone.
Yang Wentian only learned that he was bragging, and he spent a lot of money and time to officially replace Ye Hui's position in King Jing's mansion, although this status was not very good. Of course, these are to be run by yourself. If the master could have listened to him at the beginning, as long as he belonged to the Nangong clan on the surface and secretly obeyed the dispatch of King Jing's mansion, he would not have to come to this point.
As for the Jia family, Yang Wentian has nostalgia in his heart. When they met, they were already married. He really didn't expect that on the day the matter was revealed, in order to protect him, Jia insisted that he was bullied by Hong Jipeng.
But it's finally coming to an end! If it weren't for the money, how could he put up with the Nangong clan for so many years? The armament business in Beijing has an eyebrow, and the items that the other party wants have already been produced with drawings, and he is about to become a guest of King Jing's curtain. If King Jing needed it one day, he could give these weapons to King Jing first. At that time, the Yang family was from the dragon's work. What is Nangong Clan? It's just a joke.
**********
In the wilderness, a lamp and a small stove boiling water are particularly visible. Nangong Jin sat cross-legged under the tree, fiddling with the tea set on a small table in front of him, and his movements were smooth, as if he was only prepared for himself.
Yang Wentian's first reaction when he saw him was to bypass, but this person would wait for him here, and he was afraid that he would be able to bypass it if he didn't want to, so he simply stepped forward slowly.
Nangong Jin didn't look up, and took a sip of tea, "I'm sorry, I wanted to invite you to a cup of tea, but unfortunately when I passed by the west of the city, I broke a cup." ”
Yang Wentian stood still, "The matter in the west of the city, is the second young master still satisfied?" ”
"Ugh." Nangong Jin looked up at him, "Second time, what should I say?" You know, that's not how I arranged it. ”
Yang Wentian laughed, "The effect is better, isn't it?" ”
Nangong Jin didn't answer, but asked, "Are you going to De'an?" However, King Jing is not a good match. ”
Yang Wentian is like a thunderbolt from the sky, how could he know about this kind of thing?
Nangong Jin looked at his expression, as if he was very satisfied, and pretended to shrug his shoulders casually and said, "You know that the Hong family is crazy, so they have a relationship with Ye Hui very early. Then, from that time on, you had an affair with Jia. Right? ”
Yang Wentian calmed down, the matter is a foregone conclusion, and none of this is important. So, he applauded Nangong Jin, "Second Young Master has good means, this can be checked." ”
Nangong Jin smiled helplessly, "I only mentioned 30,000 taels of silver, and Hong Jipeng said it." ”
"Do you believe him?" Yang Wentian asked rhetorically.
"Don't you also say that he killed his father? Alas, I am a man of good talk, and I believe whatever you say. ”
Yang Wentian laughed a few times, "Nangong Jin, you are just looking for a reason to kill someone, I have done you such a favor now, so that you can even save the effort of finding a reason." I don't expect you to thank you, but at least give way. ”
"Alas, I just said that King Jing is not easy to get along with. Don't you know that King Jing doesn't take you people seriously at all, so how can he send someone to answer you? Or do you think that there will be people in King Jing's Mansion who will dare to make decisions without going through him? Nangong Jin said with a smile.
Yang Wentian's face changed, "What do you mean?!" ”
Nangong Jin leisurely poured another cup of tea for himself and took a sip, "The feeling of making tea is still a little worse, and you should really drink wine if you want to pretend to be." Holding a teacup in his hand, he looked up at Yang Wentian and said slowly: "There is something you may not know." A day ago, your whole family, well, explain, the whole family means, including your father, mother, brothers, wives, concubines, and grandchildren, as well as maids and servants, all went to prison. He was charged with fornicating with an enemy country and stealing ordnance. What's even more unfortunate is that it is Jinyiwei who checked you. Of course, it wasn't to check on you, but earlier in the day, the Tartars hit Shunyi, not only did someone report the news, but also found that there were our Ming standard ordnance. So the adults in the military department threw you away for self-preservation. ”
"You think I'm going to believe it?!" Yang Wentian sneered.
"I didn't want you to believe it, I just stated a fact. In addition, because your family copied out the silver ticket that the Nangong clan had marked. As the main family, I also have to go to the capital to confess my sin, alas. He shook his head as he spoke, "I haven't been to the capital for a long time." In any case, deal with you first, and there will be less loss. ”
Yang Wentian took a step back, stared at Nangong Jin vigilantly, and said in a low voice, "A day ago? What happened a day ago didn't spread so quickly, did it? Suddenly thinking that he had mentioned King Jing, a wave of fear struck, and he took off the long knife on his horse, "Who are you?" ”
"Huh? It's strange to ask. The head of the three halls in Jingzhou and the second son of the Nangong family. Nangong Jin added with a smile: "My mother taught me since I was a child, don't lie to people." ”
Yang Wentian looked serious, took out his long knife and pointed at Nangong Jin, and took two steps back.
"Do you want to take a false shot, get on your horse and escape?" Nangong Jin shook his head, "I advise you to forget it, it's better not to retreat." ”
Before Nangong Jin's words fell, Yang Wentian heard a sound of "porphyry", and then seemed to smell the smell of steel and blood mixed together, looked down, and saw a long sword piercing his body from behind, revealing a bloody sword body on his chest, at this time, the huge pain instantly spread throughout his body.
Nangong Jin never moved, watching him fall.
"Didn't you say that he was an apprentice of Honglai and had good skills? It's too easy, too. After Yang Wentian fell, Xiao Ying's figure was revealed behind him.
Nangong Jin said helplessly: "No way, maybe I'm too famous, he always thought I would do it." However, your stealth skills are getting better and better, almost imperceptibly. ”
Xiao Ying bent down and checked, and added another sword. "Okay, you owe me one more time."
Nangong Jin finally threw the teacup and stood up, "Okay." Back in Jingzhou, please drink. ”
Xiao Ying nodded, endured it for a long time, and finally asked, "Xiao Ye has been gone for so many days, you don't look for her?" ”
"I'm in trouble. When her master came, she always had to talk about the past. Anyway, she didn't leave Jingzhou. "It's very arbitrary.
