Beijing, Xie Shiyun's dormitory.

Xie Shiyun looked at the letterhead in her hand, her eyebrows frowning slightly. This was sent to her by Xie Wenxuan, and he wrote in great detail about what happened in Cloud City.

In a city, the people are most afraid that it is not the prefect, but it is a petty official, no matter how you look at it, it is problematic. It's just that what kind of ability does that petty official have to make the people afraid?

And the prefect, won't there be any opinions?

Rubbing her eyebrows, Xie Shiyun only felt that things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface, but just looking at the letter, she really couldn't judge anything.

After thinking about it, Xie Shiyun went to find Shen Sijun. Shen Sijun also got the letterhead, which was the same as Xie Shiyun's thoughts, but because he was limited to a thin piece of stationery, he couldn't see anything, and he couldn't tell what was not simple.

Seeing Xie Shiyun's worried appearance, Shen Sijun comforted: "Xie Wen has always been smart, and nothing will happen." And the guards around him are strong in martial arts, and they will protect him. ”

Xie Shiyun nodded.

said that Xie Wen was in Yuncheng, and he was still a little busy when he first took over the official affairs of Yuncheng, but only a day has passed, and he can handle it in an orderly manner.

Because Xie Wen's actions these days are very respected by the people. They all said that the eleventh prince is the best prince, and he is very popular with the people.

In the capital, Xie Yuan got the news of Yuncheng and was so angry that he dropped something again.

"If it weren't for my father, it would be this palace to win the hearts of the people this time!" Xie Yuan said angrily, but how could he have thought that with his character, if he really went forward, how could he think about the people wholeheartedly?

It is impossible to say that he is justifying the people on the surface, but behind the scenes, he cooperates with the officials of Yuncheng and gets the money obtained from the oppression of the people to expand his power.

In addition to handling official business, Xie Wen also went to the prison to interrogate those officials. But no matter how much I interrogated, I didn't get any useful information, and I kept the same answer over and over again.

Xie Wen frowned and listened to the Cloud City official answer with the same words as before, so he could only give up.

But it was said that the capital.

Xie Shiyun and Shen Sijun have been closely monitoring the Zhou family these days, and because of this, the two feel that the Zhou family is a little abnormal.

These days, the Zhou family is very quiet, and there is no moth at all. It made Xie Shiyun and Shen Sijun uncomfortable, recalling the actions of the Zhou family in the past, the two couldn't help but feel that the Zhou family was holding back some big moves, ready to catch them off guard!

Qinglou.

Baguio looked at the situation outside in the box on the second floor, seemingly careless, but in fact he was listening to the conversation of the people in the building and collecting information.

"Baguio girl, two officials have just come, and I have to wait for Sister Xunxiang, but Sister Xunxiang caught a cold yesterday and is still resting!" The little maid in the building hurriedly came in and said to Baguio.

Baguio has always been tolerant of the girls under him, so if a girl like this is sick, the girl will rest. Baguio won't ask, but the two officials who came here still have to look for incense.

"It's okay, you can go down." Baguio originally wanted to let the girl with the same name as Xunxiang serve her, but she found that the other girls had guests, so she went by herself in desperation.

It was a blessing to be able to see Baguio, and the two officials no longer had to look for incense. asked Baguio to play the piano for them, and chatted while drinking wine.

Baguio stroked the piano for the two officials while casually listening to the two chatting.

"Why is Lord Li so worried? In my opinion, you can ask Prime Minister Zhou for help. "One humane.

When Lord Li heard this, his eyes lit up, "What Lord Wang said is very true!" How did I not think of that? As long as I find Prime Minister Zhou Cheng's help, my unpromising son will definitely be able to hold a position in the court! I can't say it's still fat! ”

"Isn't it? It is said that the youngest son of Lord Zhang ......"

Hearing them mention Prime Minister Zhou, Baguio couldn't help but feel a little more upset, and secretly wrote down their conversations, and after the two officials left, Baguio contacted Feiyu to pass on the news to Xie Shiyun.

After getting the news from Baguio, Xie Shiyun thought of the incompetent prefect mentioned in Xie Wen's letter, and had a faint guess in her heart. She asked people to check the name and surname of the prefect, and learned that it was the same surname as the official Baguio said.

Xie Shiyun wrote a letter, summoned Fei Yu, and asked her to send someone to send the letter to Cloud City quickly.

Cloud City.

At this time, it was already night, and Xie Wen finally finished handling official business with his forehead. He got up and stretched, and after washing, he had to rest. Suddenly, he frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong, but after looking around, he didn't find a problem.

It was getting late, and Xie Wen had fallen asleep.

A man in black sneaked in silently, the long sword in his hand glowing with cold light, and stabbed Xie Wen on the bed.

Because of his martial arts practice, Xie Wen's sleep was not deep, and he woke up when he felt the murderous aura. He rolled over and dodged, his sword stabbing into the quilt.

"Who are you?! Who sent you? Xie Wen shouted while dodging, "Someone! There are assassins! Because there was no weapon in his hand, and the assassin was menacing again, Xie Wen could only keep retreating.

In the post station, hearing Xie Wen's shout, the person in charge of protecting Xie Wen immediately rushed over.

The assassin was not alone, and when he heard Xie Wen shouting, he knew that if he didn't solve Xie Wen before the others arrived, it would be too late, and he would be a little more ruthless.

But Xie Wen learned from Shen Sijun, and in this case, although he couldn't fight back, it was not a problem to protect himself.

His protectors soon arrived and broke down the door.

When the Assassins saw that the situation was not good, they tried to flee. But it's too late!

Because he was worried about Xie Wen's safety, the people who followed him to protect him this time were all first-class masters. In front of these people, the assassins were powerless!

Xie Wen was protected behind him, and while tidying up his clothes, he said, "Keep your mouth alive." ”

"Yes." Knowing that Xie Wen wanted to stay alive for interrogation, his subordinates should be subordinate.

However, the assassins knew that they could not escape, and they killed themselves by biting the poison sacs hidden between their teeth.

"There is no living mouth." After his subordinates checked it, he said.

"Tsk" Xie Wen frowned dissatisfiedly.

His subordinates pleaded guilty and said, "Your Highness, it is your subordinates who are not doing things well. ”

"It's none of yours." Xie Wen said: "These people have made up their minds and will not live for us to catch." ”

After disposing of the assassin's body, Xie Wen said to his subordinates: "Let's all go back and rest, there will be no second assassination tonight." Because this room had been destroyed, Xie Wen had to find an empty room to live in.

On the second day, Xie Wen received a letter from Xie Shiyun to him.

There were not many words in the letter, first a few words of concern for him, and then he wrote down the information collected by Baguio, and finally reminded Xie Wen to focus on interrogating the prefect.

Xie Wenmo held the letter, and thought of what he had found after coming to Cloud City, as well as the content of Xie Shiyun's letter, and instantly understood.
