Chapter 359: News of the Assassins

Li Ke, the king of Wu, led his troops to guard the periphery, and the news that the Marquis of Dongshan took the Jinyi guards of the Shenhou Mansion to inspect the inside of the Chunqiu examination room spread from the court in this way, but it prevented those who wanted to go through the back door to stuff people into the Chunqiu examination room in advance.

But in this way, it is embarrassing, there are so many people who have already received the benefits from others, and it is taboo to just collect the benefits without doing anything, so there are still people who have a glimmer of hope and hand over the post, wanting to visit Xuan Shijing.

It's just that all the replies I got were that there was a happy event in the Dongshan Hou Mansion recently, and before the Spring Festival, the Hou Ye suspended all official duties.

This is naturally an excuse, Gao Jun's marriage has been almost prepared inside and out, and Xuan Shijing can't help much, finding such an excuse is nothing more than to avoid these embarrassing human contacts.

Isn't it just a spring girl, if you have the ability to get into it by yourself, if you don't have the ability to have a family background, if you don't even have a family background, you can find a relationship with yourself to come to the Shenhou Mansion to intercede, and you still have an official errand?

To put it bluntly, I have the idea of wanting to sneak into the palace to try to meet His Majesty Li Er, and fantasize that if he performs well in the palace, it will undoubtedly be a shortcut, and he can be favored by His Majesty Li Er, and he will soar in the future, just around the corner.

Xuan Shijing, who was entrusted with an important task, was hiding in Xuanwu's arms at this time to enjoy this moment of peace.

It's a pity that the heavens don't fulfill people's wishes.

"Master Hou." Yijin Yiwei went up to the fifth floor and found Xuan Shijing: "Miss Jiang said that there is movement on the Zheng family's side. ”

"Oh?" Xuan Shijing straightened up from his chair, and this news aroused Xuan Shijing's interest. "There is news of those assassins who have been exiled outside by the Zheng family?"

"Exactly, last evening, a person dressed ordinary, but his behavior was very mysterious, entered the house through the back door of the Zheng family's mansion, and our people paid attention to it, and then notified Miss Jiang, and when the person left, Miss Jiang followed alone." The brocade guard said: "Later, I learned that those people have been hiding in Wannian County, Master Hou, should we send someone over......

"Has Jiang Muqing ever exposed her whereabouts?" Xuan Shijing asked.

The brocade guard shook his head: "That's not true, Miss Jiang was very cautious all the way, didn't get too close to that person, knew that she chased into Wannian County, and probably learned the location of those people, and then brought the news back to the Shenhou Mansion." ”

Xuan Shijing sat on the chair, touched his chin and thought, it stands to reason that it shouldn't be, in this place of Wannian County, the Xuanjia Army has also searched for it, and there are a lot of assassins who are a big target, so suddenly appeared in Wannian County, the local people will not know, why didn't the Xuanjia Army detect anything abnormal at that time? Even if the Xuanjia Army ignored it before, the spies sent out by the Shenhou Mansion would not even be able to inquire about this little bit of news.

If you think like this, it is estimated that this group of assassins was not in Wannian County at all before, but ran out to avoid the limelight, and after a few days, as soon as the rumor passed, they returned to Chang'an to contact the Zheng family, and now that the Spring Festival is about to begin, the center of the entire court is all tilted towards the Spring Palace, and the people of the Shenhou Mansion have also been ordered by His Majesty Li Er to be responsible for the inspection of the Spring Palace, so naturally there will be no manpower to search for them.

Taking this opportunity to contact the Zheng family, the risk can be said to be the smallest, but it is a pity that they underestimated Jiang Muqing, a stubborn girl.

"Although the news is very useful, Jiang Muqing's actions are too reckless." Xuan Shijing sighed and said: "If you are accidentally discovered on the way, the consequences are unimaginable, go back and pass my words to Jiang Muqing, if you encounter this kind of thing in the future, and you must not be reckless, the first thing to ensure under the premise of investigating the case is your own safety, if you can't do this, don't stay in the Shenhou Mansion." ”

The brocade guard was stunned when he heard this, and then hugged his fists and responded: "My subordinates understand." ”

Xuan Shijing waved his hand: "Go back, tell Chang Le, take people out of the city before the gate of Chang'an City is closed this evening, and attack Dongshan County in a hurry on the third watch, be sure to talk about those assassins, and catch them all, this news must be blocked strictly from the outside world, especially the Zheng family, don't let them see any clues, otherwise, the Zheng family will send someone to ventilate and report the news, and we will be exposed." In the end, Xuan Shijing gave an important instruction.

"Yes, Master Hou." The brocade guard answered, then turned to leave.

Xuan Shijing watched the brocade guard leave, his eyes only looked at the staircase, and gradually became confused.

Zheng Jia...... This retribution is really coming quickly...... But it's best that the matter has been solved early, and at the end of the month, it is Gao Jun's marriage, and then go to see blood, how unlucky, now that it is solved, it can be regarded as a matter of heart, that is, the Zheng family, I am afraid that I will not be able to live in peace.

As for Chunqiu, Xuan Shijing has the opportunity to come to the scene to see what this ancient official examination is like, but he didn't enter the examination room as a candidate, and he is really a little disappointed to think about it.

Today's Xuanwu Building is temporarily back in the hands of the money pile, Long'er is now in the Hou Mansion, ready to marry with peace of mind, at this time the Wang family will not let Long'er come out to show her face, the girl's family wants to marry, there are always a lot of rules.

Xuan Shijing has not returned to the Dongshan Hou Mansion for several days, either in the Shenhou Mansion or in the Xuanwu Tower, if he wants to return to the Dongshan Hou Mansion, it is estimated that he will have to wait until after the Spring Festival.

Although they are all in Chang'an City, but the current situation, Xuan Shijing is not at all like letting the Dongshan Marquis Mansion be disturbed by those ministers from the court, if there is anything, just go to the Shenhou Mansion to find it, the Shenhou Mansion can't find it, if you can think of the Xuanwu Building, you can go to the Xuanwu Tower, and if you can't think of it, then you will consider yourself unlucky.

Therefore, even if Xuan Shijing is in Xuanwu Tower, he can occasionally receive a letter of worship from some people in Chang'an City, but Xuan Shijing only takes a general look and puts it on the shelf.

What is the most difficult in the world, the dilemma is the most difficult, although Fang Yiai told Xuan Shijing about the human relations in Chang'an City on weekdays, but this time, Xuan Shijing's task seems simple, but behind him, there is His Majesty Li Er standing watching all the time, besides, even if these people can find some loopholes from Xuan Shijing's side, what about Li Ke, the king of Wu on the periphery, the Xuanjia Army is the pro-army of His Majesty Li Er, and the five hundred Xuanjia Army led by Li Ke is not vegetarian.

So after thinking about it, Xuan Shijing began to reply to some people who handed him posts for the first time, explaining in detail the specific matters of this Spring Festival, not that he was unwilling to be accommodating, if this was stabbed in front of His Majesty, no matter you and me, we would all suffer.
