"What, what do you mean?" Scholar **.

Xiao Yuexi leaned forward and said, "Do you really not understand, or are you pretending to be confused?" If you're worse than you, you'll be a dead soldier. ”

There was a sudden "buzz" in the scholar's mind, and the whole person was stunned.

Xiao Yuexi was not in a hurry, and lowered her eyes to look at her bare nails. There are too many things about her that she is not like an ordinary lady, and not keeping her nails is just one of them.

After waiting for some time, the scholar finally spoke again, Xiao Yuexi only raised his eyes and swept it, and he saw something from his expression - if he just wanted to be with Xiao Yuexi before, then at this time he really wanted to confess.

"You're right, if they wanted to attack my son, they would have done it a long time ago......" The scholar smiled bitterly. Maybe in their eyes, my son is more useful than me, right? ”

Xiao Yuexi smiled and said nothing.

"I have a limited understanding of the master, he has never taken off his mask in front of outsiders, and he can't be the closest confidant, but I do know another thing, I inadvertently saw you Ling Zheng, with another- uh......"

Without warning, a short arrow pierced the back of the scholar's neck, nailing the name he had almost pronounced to his throat. Xiao Yuexi was stunned for a moment, and watched the scholar lying on the ground without even flapping a few times, just dying neatly, only then did he seem to react, his face changed, he opened the small window that had been broken and jumped out, but in the empty backyard, there was not even a single figure.

Xiao Yuexi was extremely angry, and smashed her fist on the window frame, the already crumbling window could no longer withstand such violent treatment, and broke away from the wall and smashed to the ground with a "bang". Chengfeng, who was guarding outside, immediately pushed the door and rushed in.

"Madam...... looked down at the corpse on the ground, and then looked at Xiao Yuexi, who was blue outside the window, and immediately reacted and ordered to investigate the suspicious person.

Xiao Yuexi leaned against the wall with half of her body, her face softened, but her brows were frowning tightly, as if she was thinking about something.

Chengfeng didn't dare to disturb, and took care of himself to investigate the corpse on the ground.

The arrow, shot the back of the scholar's neck from the window, pierced through, and the tail of the arrow was all submerged in the flesh and blood, and the force was extremely strong, so that people didn't have time to speak, and they were killed directly. And looking at Xiao Yuexi's reaction, you can know that when this arrow was shot, the man didn't even look at the result, and ran away directly. Is this too confident in himself, or too jealous of Xiao Yuexi?

Involuntarily, Chengfeng's face appeared in his mind again, and he felt that only he could do this kind of thing, and only he had a reason to do this kind of thing......

"Ride the wind." Xiao Yuexi said suddenly. "Dispose of the corpse, this matter will be put on hold for now."

Chengfeng was stunned for a moment, and he didn't dare to ask questions in his heart, so he had to do it. The only thing he had to do when he came out was to follow Xiao Yuexi's orders.

In the afternoon, Xiao Yuexi personally went to the western fishing village.

"Mrs. Xiao?" Wei Chang looked at her arrival with some surprise, and then deliberately said: "The minister is about to go to tell you, the cellar we have dug for a few days has finally not been in vain, and we have found the secret passage." ”

"Oh? Where does it lead? ”

The two acted in front of everyone, and they didn't know if they could hide the eyes in the dark.

When Xiao Yuexi was talking to Wei Chang, his eyes consciously or unintentionally examined one by one among his servants in the government, and then looked at Zhao Rong who was helping together.

Although the Imperial Forest Army was raised in the capital, he had never seen much bloody army, but the chief and deputy commanders had fought with Xiao Yixuan in the Quartet in their early years, and they rendered the entire Imperial Forest Army with iron and blood. And Zhao Rong is a little less aggressive and ruthless than his eldest brother Zhao Xing, heroic and cheerful, like a big brother who walks the rivers and lakes all year round.

Zhao Rong has been following Huang Lian to borrow people around recently, relying on his friendship with Xiao Yixuan, and he has rubbed a few thin noodles before he came back, and he followed Wei Chang to do the work of digging holes, and when he saw Xiao Yuexi at this time, he smiled at her kindly, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The last time I saw you, you came back from Connecticut last year to resume your life, and in a blink of an eye, you became Mrs. Xiao, it's really ......."

He sighed, not in pity or anything else. Xiao Yuexi said with a smile: "Second Brother Zhao, don't make fun of me, I myself know that my fate is too ups and downs." ”

She still had a smile on her face, but if you looked closely, she could see that the smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes. Her heart was gloomy, and she couldn't come back to her senses in the morning scene.

This man can unknowingly release a cold arrow and then retreat, he must be the one who is most capable of extinguishing his mouth, why didn't he do it in the first place, but instead sent a lame dead man into their hands?

Combined with the whole thing, Xiao Yuexi suddenly understood.

Their ultimate goal was not to kill them, but to make Xiao Yuexi believe in the prisoners in their hands, and to let her listen to the confessions of these people. I don't know what means they used, in short, they were sure that the scholar would not tell the truth in front of Xiao Yuexi anyway, let him divert Xiao Yuexi's attention, and they took the opportunity to do something else.

But unfortunately, the scholar was fooled by Xiao Yuexi's words, at that time, Bacheng wanted to say everything he knew, in order to ensure that his son was thorough, but unfortunately, he didn't have time to finish, let alone tell his son's residence, and he didn't have time to ask Gu ......

Xiao Yuexi had a result from his half of the sentence - Ling Suihan had met with a very important person, and this person also had a head and face among them.

For the first time, Xiao Yuexi remembered that his whereabouts had been controlled since the capital, and he intuitively felt that that person was likely to be here, so he came. But after looking around, I found that no one looked like that person.

Wei Chang is worthy of being a person who has been a Dali temple secretary for many years, and his observation is amazingly sharp, and it didn't take long for him to notice from a few eyes that something was wrong with Xiao Yuexi's trip. He knew that Xiao Yuexi was sending someone to check the bottom of the people in his mansion, not only him, but Zhao Rong and the Imperial Forest Army under him were also checked one by one, and the original suspicions had been cleared, and she suddenly came over, there must have been some new discovery.

Thinking of this, Wei Chang raised his voice and ordered: "You all go and see those cellars, I don't believe it, when the common people flee, there are still those idle people who seal the cellars!" ”

Zhao Rongkong has a martial arts, but his brain is not very bright, so he only said: "Then I will also take my brothers to help, enter the city early after checking it out early, and guard this broken fishing village all day long to smell the sea breeze, my whole person is about to be blown into salt." ”

Xiao Yuexi saluted him, and watched him take people away, and the surroundings suddenly fell silent.

Xiao Yuexi said: "Lord Wei has seen it? ”

Wei Chang: "Mrs. Xiao has made a new discovery?" ”

Xiao Yuexi briefly recounted what happened in the morning, and at the end she said: "Lord Wei also knows that my whereabouts have been closely controlled since I left the capital, so I have always felt that among these people in the Imperial Forest Army or in Lord Wei's mansion, there are their internal responses. ”

Of course Wei Chang knew, but he had never heard Xiao Yuexi explain to him in person, and he didn't know how to interface for a while.

Xiao Yuexi said again: "A team secretly sent by the emperor is one he absolutely trusts, so I asked them to check themselves first, and then check outside, after a round of screening, none of them are like it, and over time I will think that I think too much, but today's matter is ......."

Xiao Yuexi frowned slightly and didn't continue, because she heard a flustered footsteps, from far and near.

"Your Excellency!" The man ran closer only to find that Xiao Yuexi was also there, and hurriedly saluted and said hello, and then said: "My lord, the people guarding the foot of Nanshan came to report that there was an abnormality over there, and a large group of women, children and children were pressed down to the mountain as if they had fallen from the sky. ”

It was Yao Shensong who came in a hurry, he ran too fast, his fair face was slightly ruddy, and his breathing was a little short.

Wei Chang frowned, lowered his voice and spit out the question in his heart: "That secret passage is the same as the barren mountains in the south?" "That's too far, isn't it?

Looking back, Xiao Yuexi was already sitting firmly on his horse, looking down at Wei Chang and said, "I'll take a look." ”

Wei Chang hurriedly grabbed the reins in her hand and said solemnly: "Madam, you didn't bring a guard, do you want to take risks yourself?" ”

"Tsk." Xiao Yuexi glanced at him unhappily, but he didn't refute it when he thought of something, but said: "There is something else to do with the wind, I thought I was just coming around and going back, and I didn't think about bringing someone with me - then let Deputy Commander Zhao take the Royal Forest Army to run errands with me." ”

Wei Chang nodded, Yao Shensong went to pass the word with a very good look, and Wei Chang said again: "It seems that they are frightened, so they will transfer the hostages, and it is not interesting to act in the secret passage, so the ministers should also accompany them." ”

As he spoke, he was about to lead the horse, but was stopped by Xiao Yuexi: "Lord Wei." ”

Wei Chang turned around: "What does Mrs. Xiao command?" ”

Xiao Yuexi Qingyue's voice sounded slowly: "I can trust Lord Wei, this time, we will check in two groups, I will check the Imperial Forest Army, and you will check your own people." ”

“…… Madam?! Wei Chang was a little confused.

Is she going to die again? What if Nei Ying was not on his side, but in the middle of the Imperial Guards?

"Mrs. Xiao!" Zhao Rong's hearty voice sounded, leading his soldiers to come on horseback, with some joy in his tone: "I can finally go out and let off steam!" Mrs. Xiao, you are really the lucky star we are waiting for! ”

Wei Chang's brows were about to twist into a ball, but there were many people at the moment, and it was inconvenient to say a lot of words, so he had to say to Zhao Rong uneasily: "There is Deputy Commander Lao Zhao to take care of it." ”

Deputy Commander Zhao: "Whew! Lord Wei, is this underestimating our Mrs. Xiao? Feel relieved! Mrs. Xiao's ability is amazing, that is Ping Nanhou's sister-in-law! ”

Wei Chang: "......" is unreliable!

However, Mrs. Xiao herself has always had a proper response to unreliable people, she ignored Zhao Rong, and just said to Wei Chang meaningfully: "Don't worry, Lord Wei, it's up to you here." ”
