Chapter 250: The Assassination of the Third Prince
Qi Shu paused, and her eyes suddenly lit up: "So, you promised me!" ”
Qi Yan said: "Like them, you also have to redeem your deed of sale." ”
"Good! Good! Qi Shu nodded hurriedly, "I'll redeem it!" I redeem! Qi Yan, how much do you want! ”
Qi Yan said: "Not much, one hundred taels." ”
"One hundred taels is not much!?" Qi Shu's eyes widened, "One hundred taels can be spent by ordinary people for a year!"
Qi Yan was categorical, and there was no room for negotiation: "One hundred taels." ”
Qi Shu stared at Qi Yan, and seeing that Qi Yan was expressionless, she gritted her teeth fiercely and said, "Okay!" One hundred taels is one hundred taels! You wait! I'll find a way for you! When the time comes, you have to talk the talk! ”
Qi Yan replied lukewarmly: "You can make up enough for a hundred taels first." ”
Qi Shu stood up, bit her lower lip, stomped her foot hard, and left.
"Young lady......" Full Moon looked at the direction Qi Shu left, turned to Qi Yan, and said, "You really want to give her the deed of sale?" ”
Qi Yan nodded: "One hundred taels of deed of sale, I don't lose." ”
Luo Twelve put his hands around his chest and said, "I think it's too cheap for her!" ”
Qi Yan said: "People don't kill the heavens and the earth for themselves!" Now the Xie family is like this...... If Xie Fuyi really lost, there was no need to drag such a pair of people to accompany the funeral. ”
"What about you?" Luo Twelve asked suddenly.
Qi Yan was stunned: "Me? ”
"That's right!" Lo XII said, "Just as you say! If the Xie family can't escape this catastrophe, what will you do? ”
Qi Yan said: "It's not up to me to have the final say. ”
As she spoke, she shrugged her shoulders lightly and continued, "I am the titular young lady of the Xie family...... So, even if I wanted to, I couldn't. ”
"What if, you can run?" Luo Twelve asked
Qi Yan didn't think about it, and said, "Then I will naturally leave!" ”
"Really!"
"Of course!" Qi Yan coughed, "But it's useless to talk about it now...... I haven't separated from Xie Fuyi yet. ”

At this time, on the side of Dali Temple, after Jiang Ren left Xie Fuyi's cell, he had just returned to his room before closing the door......
"Lord Jiang, are you back?" A man stood in the middle of the room, silently. If he hadn't suddenly spoken, Jiang Ren wouldn't have noticed his existence at all.
Jiang Ren was a little frightened and looked at the people waiting in the room.
The man smiled in a low voice and said, "Master Jiang, don't be so surprised, I came to you not once or twice." ”
"However, you are so elusive every time...... Jiang Ren said, walking to the man's side, "Guard Liu, can you remind me next time you come." ”
"If others see that I have come to you openly, things will be in trouble."
Leo Yi said.
Jiang Ren looked at the person in front of him speechlessly, who would have thought that the person in his room now was the emperor's imperial guard?
Liu Yi is not very old, about thirty years old, he looks extremely ordinary, and belongs to the kind of person who will not attract attention if he is thrown in the pile.
He is not only inconspicuous, but also inconspicuous, even if the emperor has ears and guards in front of him, but he is not noticeable, the emperor never seems to have paid attention to the guard beside him, and Liu Yi has always played a low-key and obedient appearance in front of people.
He, the guard, is a dispensable existence......
Jiang Ren used to think the same way.
Until the emperor called him to the front of the palace and told him something.
…………
…………
A few days ago, Jiang Ren, the Dali Siqing, looked at the Ninety-Five Emperor behind the imperial case, looking respectful.
He struggled to put his belly away so that he didn't look so pot-bellied.
The emperor didn't care about Lord Jiang's figure, he finished the book and slowly raised his head.
"Aiqing, sit down." The emperor's voice fell, and immediately the little eunuch moved a chair.
Jiang Ren hurriedly thanked Lord Longen, and sat down with some trepidation, he didn't know what the emperor was thinking for a while......
This Dali Siqing, he has been doing it for some years, and he has always done his duty, without merit.
Although the emperor sometimes talks to his ministers, he rarely finds Jiang Ren.
This time, the emperor suddenly summoned him, and Jiang Ren was not only uneasy, but also uneasy.
"Here, I have something that you need to do." The emperor looked at Jiang Ren and spoke.
Jiang Ren hurriedly stood up: "What's the matter, the emperor just orders." I will do my best to do it! ”
The emperor nodded with satisfaction and said, "Actually, things are not difficult. ”
After speaking, he clapped his hands, and then Liu Yi, who was guarding outside the house, walked in.
The emperor pointed at Liu Yi and said to Jiang Ren: "This is Liu Yi, these days, you have temporarily obeyed his orders." ”
Jiang Ren paused, looked at Liu Yi on the side, and Liu Yi bowed his hand to Jiang Yi: "Lord Jiang." ”
Jiang Ren didn't know why, but since it was the emperor's order, he naturally wouldn't resist, so Jiang Ren gave up his hand and saluted: "Guard Liu." ”
After greeting Liu Yi, Jiang Ren couldn't help but look at the emperor.
Dali Siqing thought that the emperor would explain more or less and let him know what was going on, but the result was ...... The emperor looked at the two of them and said, "Do a good job, I believe in you." ”
Liu Yi saluted and replied respectfully and seriously: "Yes!" ”
Jiang Ren also hurriedly followed and saluted, and replied: "The minister obeys the order." ”
…………
…………
"Lord Liu, what are you thinking?" Liu Yi in front of him pulled back Jiang Ren's thoughts, he came back to his senses, waved his hand, and said, "No, it's nothing ......"
Liu Yi smiled in a low voice, and then said, "By the way, how is Xie Fuyi's side?" ”
Jiang Ren shook his head and said, "He doesn't admit that he has anything to do with Xiao He. ”
"Expected." Leo said, shrugging his shoulders.
Jiang Ren hesitated for a moment and said, "In my opinion...... Xie Fu Yi really doesn't seem to have anything to do with Xiao He......"
Liu Yi's eyebrows raised and said, "That's Xie Fuyi's performance." ”
Jiang Ren looked puzzled and said, "According to what you say, are you sure that Xie Fu Yi has something to do with Xiao He?" ”
Leo shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands.
Jiang Ren continued: "Since you are so sure, why did you let me ask? Aren't you afraid of startling the snake? ”
The man stretched out his finger, shook it, and said, "This is not to scare the snake, this is called to lure the snake out of the hole." ”
"Lure the snake out of the hole?" Jiang Ren was puzzled and looked at Liu Yi.
Liu Yi said: "You don't need to know so much about specific things, just do what I say." ”
Jiang Ren opened his mouth, and finally let out a long sigh: "Okay, I know." ”
"Also, give me something." Liu Yi said, stretching out his hand towards Jiang Yi.
Jiang Ren paused, for a while, he didn't expect what it was.
Leo reminded: "Letters. ”
"Oh! Right! Right! Jiang Ren hurriedly took out the letter in his arms, which was the letter that proved that Xie Fu Yi had collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country.
Jiang Ren took it out.
"What is this?" Liu Yi looked at the other piece of paper handed over by Jiang Ren, on which was a small poem written by Xie Fuyi imitating Lord Yan.
So Jiang Ren told Liu Yi about it.
Liu Yi looked at the little poem written by Xie Fuyi, smiled, and said, "Little trick." ”
Jiang Ren was surprised: "Little trick? ”
Liu Yidao: "As long as the calligraphy and painting skills are good enough, just imitate them upside down......"
"You know that, too?" Jiang Ren was surprised.
Liu Yi smiled slightly and did not continue.
Jiang Ren saw that he didn't say anything, and he wouldn't take the initiative to continue to ask, this was his advantage, and he could restrain his curiosity very well.
"Later, do you have any other orders?" Jiang Ren asked Liu Yidao.
Lewy said, "Wait for now." ”
"Okay." Jiang Ren completely regarded himself as a marionette, and since the emperor handed over his puppet line to Liu Yi, then he would honestly obey Liu Yi's orders.
"My lord! My lord! While the two were talking, there was a knock at the door.
Jiang Ren glanced at Liu Yi.
Lewi understood and hid.
Jiang Ren immediately opened the door, and standing outside the door was an ordinary official of Dali Temple.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Ren asked.
"Oh no, my lord! Something is wrong! ”
Jiang Ren frowned: "What's the big deal?" ”
"Three princes! The three princes were ......" the voice of the yacha trembled, "The three princes were assassinated in the street!" ”
"What?!"
…………
…………
The news of the assassination of the three princes exploded in Yujing.
It's like throwing a huge stone into the calm water, and all the mud at the bottom of the water is smashed up!
For a while, the capital was boiling, you must know that more than ten years ago, the eldest son of the emperor was assassinated on the street! Now, now the three princes are going to be assassinated on the street, and it is almost the same drama.
The third prince was assassinated in the street, and even if the royal family wanted to hide it, it was too late.
The people of Yujing have a good mouth, and they have long spread the news of the killing of the third prince all over the city.
There is only one exception.
Xie family.
Because of Xie Fuyi's "rebellion", the Xie family was surrounded at this time, and the people inside couldn't get out, and the news from the outside couldn't get in.
Of course, at this time, the servants of the Xie family were still busy with the deed of sale, and even if the news could come in, they would not have time to take care of it.
When Old Lady Xie learned the news, it was already the next morning.
The news was brought in by Qi Yan, the third prince was killed, and she saw it with her own eyes.
…………
…………
The words started when Qi Yan left the Xie family, and after sending Qi Shu away, Qi Yan walked out of the Xie family.
Because of Ren Yuanyang's relationship, Qi Yan left the Xie family smoothly.
Luo Twelve followed her with Full Moon, and after the three of them came out, Luo Twelve took the lead and said, "Next, what are you going to do?" ”
Qi Yan thought for a while and said, "Let's go to the south and west of the city first." ”
As for why she went to the south and west of the city, Luo Twelve didn't ask, and Qi Yan didn't answer.
So a few people got in a carriage and went south of the city.
"Gurgling ......" the full moon's belly sounded.
The little maid covered her stomach a little embarrassed, Qi Yan looked at the sky, and said to the coachman, "Let's go to Anren Street." ”
There is a shortcut there, and there is selling food at this time.
So, the coachman drove the car in the direction of On Yan Street.
"Young lady, you can't go ahead." As soon as the carriage reached the corner of Anren Street, he said to Qi Yan in the car.
"Why?" Qi Yan said, lifting the curtain.
I saw that there were guards outside, sounding gongs to open the way, and it seemed that the dignitary was going to cross the street.
The coachman said, "It looks like the third prince." ”
Qi Yan said: "When you leave, we are ......"
Before the word "go" was spoken, there was a sudden change outside!
I saw that the carriage that the three princes were riding suddenly caught fire, and when Qi Yan came back to his senses, he saw several arrows with fire shooting on the carriage of the three princes' ears, and when he boarded, the carriage was shocked!
More than a dozen people in black appeared around the carriage of the three princes in unison, as if they were doing tricks!
When he arrived, a group of masked black-clothed men fought with the guards around the three princes.
It's a mess on the streets!
At this time, a figure passed over Qi Yan's head, the other party moved too fast, Qi Yan didn't see it clearly at all, and only felt a shadow flash above his head.
When she looked at it,
The three princes didn't know why, but they poked their heads out of the sedan chair!
Qi Yan's eyes widened!
Because she could see clearly that the masked man in black was standing on the roof of the third prince and raised the sword in his hand!
The sword in his hand fell, and the blood of the three princes was splashed on the spot!
After the man in black killed the third prince, somehow, he suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of Qi Yan!
Qi Yan's gaze suddenly collided with the other party, her mind was blank, and she didn't react for a while!
By the time Qi Yan came back to his senses, the black-clothed masked man was gone!
The group of black-clothed people who came out before also retreated!
A group of assassins assassinated the three princes on the street and retreated!
Qi Yan sat in the carriage, frightened.
Luo Twelve shook his finger in front of her eyes: "Are you okay?" ”
Qi Yan said: "It's okay. ”
"Scared?" Luo Twelve asked.
Qi Yan shook his head, nodded again, and then shook his head again......
Luo Twelve was confused: "Scared stupid? ”
"The man in black just now ......," Qi Yan said, frowning slightly.
"Assassins, you say?" Luo Twelve said, "What's wrong?" ”
"No, ......I don't know," Qi Yan said, recalling the scene just now, except for the scene of the third prince's blood splashed on the spot, she couldn't help but think of the masked assassin.
After he killed the third prince, his gaze seemed to stay on her for a moment...... This may also be her delusion......
The time was too short, the scene was too chaotic, and when Qi Yan recalled it, it was messy.
"Don't know?" Luo Twelve was puzzled, "But, looking at you, it seems that you know something." ”
"Familiar ......" Qi Yan muttered to herself, this sentence was simply said by intuition, and when she realized what she had said, she was also surprised.
"Familiar?" Luo Twelve swallowed lightly and said, "Familiar with what?" ”
Qi Yan shook his head: "I don't know ...... either"
"You're fooling me." Luo Twelve patted Qi Yan's shoulder and said, "It's not a good thing, bloody hula, I don't want to!" ”
