Chapter 52: Waves Again
Time flies really fast, April is coming to an end, and May is coming.
Wei Shaoguang's life is still the same as studying, to be honest, this effort is harder than when she took the college entrance examination that year.
Let's put it this way, at that time, there were many people who worked hard together, knew the type of problem, and practiced countless times; And the imperial examination, a person's struggle, I don't know what to test, there is no practice materials, and it is maddening to prepare.
Besides, she can't fail yet, because there are really not many chances to complete all the exams for two consecutive years, and if she misses it, she will have to stretch the long line, and she has no time to waste.
Therefore, she has been in this state all year round, and to do those few things well, it is necessary, she has been reading books and writing articles here.
It's been a fulfilling year to imagine the future.
I don't know how the top talents in ancient times were tested, admire, really admire!
After reading a book for a day, her eyes were sore, she stood up and walked back and forth in the house, moving her old arms and legs, and finally felt that the scenery outside was more attractive, she leaned on the window, lazily looking at the leaves outside.
Just as she was very relaxed, she suddenly caught a glimpse of someone downstairs pushing the door and walking in in a panic.
It's Xiahou Ming.
Did something happen?
Wei Shaoguang straightened up and became serious, and his mind had already begun to guess what would happen.
After ruling them out one by one, she set her sights on the affairs of the Zhao family.
So, is there something wrong with the Zhao family?
Before she could come up with anything, Xiahou Ming had already gone upstairs, half-knelt on the ground, and spoke hurriedly, "Childe, Zhao Baiyi is dead." ”
"Dead?" Wei Shaoguang asked him in surprise, "When?" How did he die? ”
Is this who is going to meddle?
The atmosphere in the study became solemn.
"Just now, Zhao Baiyi was found dead in Wenfang Building."
Wen Fang Lou? He's an idiot! If she dies at this time, she will really make trouble for her, it is already a sure thing, as soon as Zhao Baiyi dies, the balance between the Shen family and the Zhao family will be broken, won't the Zhao family be ruined?
Broken!
"Xiahou Ming, you go to the Shen Mansion now and pass a word to Shen Jinghong." Wei Shaoguang thought of a possibility, and quickly asked Xiahou Ming to meet Shen Jinghong, "Let's just say that it was very pleasant to get together in Wenfanglou last night, and I will send a pot of black tea to express my gratitude." ”
"There you go."
Xiahou Ming stood up, "Yes, Childe." ”
Xiahou Ming turned around and left, Wei Shaoguang stood at the window thinking about it, she patted the window, and the angry look floated on her face, and quickly faded.
"There are still two brushes, I thought the Zhao family was like this?" Wei Shaoguang sneered, looked at the sunset on the horizon and whispered to the air, "However, I must bring you down, Zhao Wenhao." ”
Clenched his fists, Wei Shaoguang gritted his teeth, "Zhao Baiyi is dead, it's really ruthless." ”
She stood at the window and thought for a long time, and only when Xiahou Ming came back from the Shen Mansion did she turn around and sit back in her chair.
"Childe, my subordinates didn't see Shen Gongzi, and the family member of the Shen Mansion said that Shen Gongzi went out this morning and never came back." Xiahou Ming was obviously aware of the problem, and he added, "This is what the Shen Mansion told his subordinates, but the expressions of the subordinates looking at the Shen Mansion were a little strange, and when the subordinates proposed to see Shen Gongzi, they seemed to be very resistant. ”
Xiahou Ming glanced at Wei Shaoguang, and finally concluded, "This is just the personal opinion of my subordinates, I hope I can help you." ”
"Okay, thank you, I know, you go down to rest first, and go out with me in the evening." Wei shook his fingers lightly on the table, thinking about things slowly.
Seeing this, Xiahou Ming gently withdrew from the room and went back to rest and recuperate.
In the room, Wei Shaoguang sat on a chair, thinking about this in her heart, although she had already expected that the Zhao family would have a follow-up, but the attitude of the Shen family was beyond her expectations, and she made the worst assumption: the Shen family defected, or a fourth person joined the game, then it would be tricky.
In any case, she needs to visit the Shen Mansion at night tonight.
In the evening, in the dead of night, she put down the scroll in her hand, got up and looked out the window, walked over and stood at the window, looked around, and then waved her hand to extinguish the lights in the room, and she jumped down from the second floor with one hand on the window lattice.
Falling lightly on the grass, Wei Shaoguang turned around and walked to the back of the small building, met Xiahou Ming, who was already waiting there, the two nodded to each other, and then jumped up, stepped on the wall and the ridge of the roof out of Hengdi Alley, and went to Jinxiu Street.
There are a total of three families living on Jinxiu Street, it is the Li, Zhao, and Shen families, because Li Baijing died unexpectedly on Qingxia Mountain, and the internal struggle for power and profit has led to the gradual decline of the Li family, and the remaining Zhao family and the Shen family will not miss this opportunity, and will definitely pull the Li family off the horse by any means and become the leader of the entire Jiangdong County.
Yes, what capital does a family have to become the lord of a county? If you want to explore the source, you need to go to the Qi State to keep up with the founding, Qi State implemented a county "one family and one state" system, the court relied on the power of the family to seize the world, and after the founding of the country, the alliance with the family formed today's situation.
It is often the family that dominates, and the officials of the imperial court are secondary.
It is precisely because of such a system that it led to the struggle between the Zhao family and the Shen family, and Wei Shaoguang came in with a very simple purpose, she wanted to fish in troubled waters.
The more the water in Jiangdong County is stirred, the better, and what happened on this land fourteen years ago has made her need to carry a weight forward now, which is why she must come here after leaving Qingxia Mountain.
The wind at night is getting cooler, blowing on the face will make people sober a little, there is no moon and stars on this night, she taps her toes on the ridge of the roof, without making a sound, the speed is extremely fast, leaving an afterimage in the wind, throwing off Xia Houming a long distance.
After two breaths, the light gently fell on the roof of the Shen family, and the tiles under his feet were burned by mixing fine stones and soil, and there would be a sound when he stepped on it, which was very unfavorable to action.
However, Wei Shaoguang's light skills are not practiced in vain, she is the person who ranks first in light skills and second in martial arts and swordsmanship.
Standing on the ridge of the roof and looking around, he found a room that was still lit, passed quietly in the night, and then climbed down the eaves and landed under the window, listening intently to the movement inside.
"How's it going?"
"Still no, I've been in a coma for a day."
"How so? Surprise him, alas! ”
"Zhao Wenhao! I slaughtered him! How dare he, how dare he ......"
One of the voices was the voice of Shen Jinyi, the head of the Shen family, and the other she couldn't distinguish.
But this information is enough.
Shen Jinghong really had an accident, and it was related to the Zhao family.
Have these two already played each other?
Wei Shaoguang lightly hooked the corners of his lips, there is a way.
Keep listening, the conversation inside is choppy.
"Is Zhao Baiyi really dead?"
"Yes, I saw him poisoned and died."
"Damn, just like this, he Zhao Wenhao dares to beat my Hong'er half to death, I will never spare him!"
"Do you still want to cooperate with that little friend of Li Zhengyuan?"
"Yes, Yan Yuheng is not a simple character."
Hearing this, Wei Shaoguang basically understood what had happened, and she didn't interrupt to continue to listen to the two old men inside saying bad things about herself, so she got up cautiously, jumped out, and went to see Shen Jinghong.
