Chapter 43 The heart is unwilling to seek revenge
Shi Li consciously understood Director Wang's eyes, so he prepared a banquet and sent someone to the post station in the evening.
And Director Wang was also waiting for Shi Li's invitation, and as soon as he saw someone coming, he immediately went happily.
As soon as Shi Li saw Director Wang, he took out a look full of apologies: "Wang Qiuzi came to Jianye this time, and Shi Li is inconvenient to give Qiuzi a good reception, I'm really sorry!" ”
After speaking, he gave Director Wang a glass.
After three rounds of drinking, Shi Li said the question in his heart: "In front of the hall today, Qiu Zi stopped Shi, what do you mean?" ”
"Lord Shi, today I stopped you from defending yourself because it was really unintentional. Our Langya Wang family and the Shi family have always had a very good personal relationship, and this is also for the sake of Lord Shi! ”
"What does Qiu mean?"
"The story of Huaiyin's loss of food must be the truth, right?" When he said this, Director Wang's expression was serious and quite unpolite.
Shi Li was slightly embarrassed when he heard this, and a dry smile appeared on his face.
The corners of Director Wang's mouth rose slightly, and he said with a smile:
"It is not uncommon for the grain to be collected by officials in previous dynasties, and the court has long known it, but this time it is related to the war in Beijun, and the means of corruption have really been. If Lord Shi continues to defend himself, he will only argue more and more clearly, and more and more evidence will be submitted, so will Lord Shi have any benefit? ”
Director Wang paused when he said this, glanced at Shi Li, saw Shi Li nodding secretly, and continued unhurriedly:
"King Langya was ordered to investigate the case, so he naturally had to give an explanation to the court, and now that Li Zhao is dead, King Langya has completed the purpose of this trip in public and private. Compared with Lord Shi, as long as there is a dispute in the case, presumably my brother Lord Shi Chong and Lu Guogong will definitely intercede for you to exonerate your guilt, why should Lord Shi fight for tongue at this time? ”
Shi Li sighed when he heard this: "What Qiu Zi said is very true, what Qiu Zi said is very true, he is in a hurry!" ”
"I heard that the Xie family in Wuyi Lane has a lot of friendship with Lord Shi, and when King Langya first came to Jiangnan, the Xie family arranged a banquet, and the Asian year is approaching, presumably this Jiangnan is different from the capital Luoyang!"
"Qiu Zi is still thoughtful, I will arrange it, and the Yasui Xie family feast."
.........
This Yi Xue returned to the post house, and after dinner, she changed into a night outfit, and was about to go out with Zhou Rong, but there was a knock on the door.
Zhou Rong couldn't help but look at Yi Xue nervously, the two of them looked at each other, and no one was ready to open the door.
"Senior sister, it's me, open the door!"
Yi Xue nodded.
Zhou Rong opened the door, and Murong Jia and Qinghu entered.
Seeing Yi Xue and Zhou Rong dressed up like this, Murong Jia half-jokingly said, "Senior sister, don't you want to go to the Assassin's Mansion at night?" ”
"What do you say?" Yi Xue saw that her senior brother was teasing herself, and her face was unhappy.
Seeing that Yi Xue was a little unhappy, Murong Jia put away his immodesty and said solemnly:
"Senior sister, if you want to solve it yourself, senior brother advises you not to, the Assassin Mansion is heavily guarded, and this method is not advisable!"
"Then the prince and the eagle will come with us!" Zhou Rong said.
"Why do we have to do it ourselves?"
"So what should I do? Could it be that your Murong clan still has hidden power in this Jianye? Yi Xue couldn't help but feel a little angry.
"Not really!"
"I won't let Shi Li leave Jianye alive, without him and Shi Chong, how could Gao Ba become Li Zhao back then, not to mention that Shi Li almost killed his father with one arrow for Gao Ba back then!"
Yi Xue thought that Murong Jia wanted to stop her, and with hatred on her face, her silver teeth clenched.
Seeing that Yi Xue was in a hurry, Murong Jia hurriedly explained:
"Senior sister misunderstood, this dog official, just based on what he did, he deserves to die, but I'm afraid it's hard for us to be sure, I mean that if we don't need to take action, you can still take the life of this dog official, isn't it better!"
"You don't need us to do it, what does senior brother mean by others?"
"That's right, girl, we can ask Lord Gu's Suyi Sect for help!" Zhou Rong seemed to suddenly realize.
"No, Lord Gu is an official of the imperial court, and his Suyi Sect is not a secret, once there are traces left, I am afraid that Lord Gu will be implicated, and even King Langya!"
Although Yi Xue was eager for revenge, she didn't want to affect others.
"What does the prince mean by foreign aid?"
Murong Jia saw that Yi Xue didn't think about it, so he reminded: "Senior sister, don't forget, when we left Huaicao Chief, Pang Qing gave you something!" ”
"That's right, girl, didn't you say that Master Pang Zhuang gave you a token, and you can ask him for help if you need it?"
Zhou Rong also remembered that when this token Yi Xue was handed over to her for safekeeping, she explained to her in person: "If you need it, you can go to the door property of Luofeng Villa, just give the token to the guy surnamed Guan!" ”
"Yes, Zhou Rong, tomorrow we will go to Jianye City to find a Xiangfeng Inn and see if Pang Qing can help with this matter." Yi Xue agreed.
Although she really wanted to kill Shi Li with her own hands, but for her, revenge is not a brute force, when she killed Li Zhao, she handed it over to Yang Zheng, because she knew that this was Yang Zheng's wish for many years, and it was also her wish, as long as the enemy died, who would not make a move?
Yang Zheng had already returned to Luoyang in advance, he was sent by Yi Xue to spy on Jia Mi, and now the most trustworthy person, except for Zhou Rong, is his senior brother Murong Jia.
Yi Xue knew that Murong Jia was different from King Langya, Sima Jingwen's heart for her, she didn't understand, but he had too much to consider, but Murong Jia was different, as if Murong Jia could understand what she wanted to do.
"Okay, I'll go with the girl tomorrow!" Zhou Rong replied.
"It's better for me to go with you, anyway, Jingwen will go to close the case tomorrow, and a few of us will go to visit this Jianye City again." Murong Jia showed his big white teeth again.
Early the next morning, after Sima Jingwen, Wang Dao, and Gu Rong went to the Assassin Shi Gongfu, Murong Jia, Mu Yixue, Qinghu, and Zhou Rong also went out.
Although Jianye City is much larger than Jiangdu, Xiangfeng Inn is really not difficult to find.
Just near the wine shop where they first met Long Si, several people found the Xiangfeng Inn, but when they came for the first time, everyone didn't pay attention.
"Yo, a few nobles, are you going to be a tip or a hotel?"
The guys at Xiangfeng Inn were still enthusiastic, and they couldn't help but make Yi Xue think of Guan Xiaoxing and Guan Xiaoman.
Yi Xue smiled and was about to speak, but heard Murong Jia speak: "We don't fight sharp, and we don't live in the store." ”
The guy was happy: "Yo, nobleman, you don't come to our inn to be sharp, and you don't live in the store." How? ”
"Come here to answer questions."
"What questions do you have to answer when you come to our inn, and what confusion do you have to solve?"
"Answer when you know the doubt, know the phoenix and solve it!"
When the guy heard this, his eyes quickly looked at Murong Jia, and he asked with a smile, "The mountains are high and the waters are long, where did they come from?" ”
"From where you come from, from where you go!" Murong Jia couldn't remember the rest of it, so he said something casually.
The guy saw that what Murong Jia said was not the secret words of Luofeng Villa, it was a slight sign, and then he said with a smile on his face: "The noble person is neither sharp nor does not live in the store, is this nothing to make fun of the villain?" ”
Hearing this, Yi Xue couldn't help but laugh, her senior brother was always so unserious.
"Little second brother, may I ask if there is a guy surnamed Guan in your store!"
Seeing that the son who asked him was good-eyed and had a good fate, the guy smiled and said, "The little one is surnamed Guan." ”
"Oh, then please pass this on to your master!" Yi Xue took out the token that Pang Qing gave him.
When the man saw it, he immediately became submissive: "Several, wait a minute, my master is at the inn, come with me." ”
Hearing that Pang Qing was at the inn, several people looked at each other quite unexpectedly, and then followed the guy.
In the Xiangzi No. 1 guest room, Pang Qing was leisurely drinking tea.
"Pang Qing, aren't you going back to Jiangdu?" Murong Jia didn't even say a greeting, and asked directly.
Pang Qing glanced at Murong Jia innocently, ignored him, and said to Yi Xue with a smile: "Thinking that the stone calendar is not easy to deal with, so take a look here to see if Miss Mu will come to me." ”
"Yo, you still have the ability to be an unpredictable prophet!" Murong Jia looked disapproving.
How did Murong Jia know that Pang Qing was not an unpredictable prophet, after coming out of Cha Yongna, he was indeed preparing to return to Fengshan Villa, but his heart was inexplicably relieved that Yi Xue would not fall, he was expecting Yi Xue to come to him, so he waited at this Xiangfeng Inn.
Yi Xue didn't bother to listen to their gossip, and said her thoughts and requests straight to the point.
I saw Pang Qing smile slightly: "In this Jiangdong, what is it to kill a stone calendar, if I am willing to Luofeng Villa, even the emperor Lao'er will not be compensated." ”
