Shen Hanxi's words can be described as heart-wrenching. Song Ran looked at Yan Shining, only to see that his lips were pursed and his eyes were full of wavering, but soon, he became tough again: "When the old man enters this officialdom, he is like a speck of dust, and since he has been swallowed up by huge sand, the old man has no choice but to deal with it safely." Now, the old man's family is the world in the old man's heart. It's not as good as Lord Shen......"

Shen Hanxi lowered his eyes for a long time before he said, "Yes, Lord Yan is not like a person like Shen." A person like Shen, for the sake of glory and wealth, can bear the infamy of the world, after all, Shen has no father and no mother, and he is alone in this world, so what if he is scolded by the world? After that, he raised his eyes to look at him and asked in a tone, "So, does Shen deserve to die?" ”

Song Ran's fingers trembled at his words, and Yan Shining also froze in place for his question, and was silent for a long time before he said: "The gentleman has something to do and something not to do, Lord Shen, turn back to the shore." ”

Shen Hanxi's tone was a little impatient: "Shen is not here to listen to your kind words and persuasions. He smiled meaninglessly, "And this sentence, Lord Yan should say to himself." How did Zhou Zicheng die, doesn't Lord Yan know better than anyone else? What this official wants to know is, who is the person who instructed you to destroy the Zhou family? ”

Yan Shining didn't expect that he had already found out to this point, and in an instant, it was as if he was choked by a pair of hands, and it was difficult to make a sound. Soon, a sense of powerlessness came over him. Yes, he is facing the Ting Wei Division, whose eyes and ears are all over Dajing, how can he escape today.

At the beginning, Zhou Zicheng came to him for consultation because of the private salt case, although he no longer had the jealousy and hatred of his youth, but when he thought that the salt policy was related to the national economy and people's livelihood, he was unwilling to turn a blind eye. After a few months of secret investigation, I thought that Xu Dongting's head would be found at most, but who knew that the more I investigated, the deeper the water of this case became, and the person involved behind it was even more of a dignitary that he couldn't touch. By the time he realized it and wanted to get out, it was too late.

The other party has long been aware of their movements.

He bitterly persuaded Zhou Zicheng to leave the Salt Division, no longer meddle in the case, and submitted his resignation himself, preparing to return to his hometown.

Who knows, Shen Hanxi will send deputy envoy Wang Zhuo to Zhejiang at this juncture - a slight and inconspicuous move, but it touched the tense string in the dignitary's heart.

The other party threatened his family and forced him to kill Zhou Zicheng with his own hands, so that he also got on the same boat.

Even if Shen Hanxi checked, he could only find his head.

With such a deep scheming and such a vicious method, compared to the Ting Wei Division, it is not far behind.

He didn't expect that his Qingming Dynasty would end up in such a late season today.

The old man calmed down and looked at death as if he were at home: "Old man...... No comment. ”

Shen Hanxi straightened his sleeve folds: "Lord Yan is so bold, Shen admires it." ”

Yan Shining's old face showed a hint of a smile: "The legendary King Shen Yan has already come to the door, how dare the old man hope to get out of this door alive." Zhou Zicheng's family was designed and killed by the old man. But the old man's family is innocent, and he asked Lord Shen to let it go. ”

Before he could make a move, Shen Hanxi suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed his wrist, and shook the knife around his neck to the ground with a shock of internal force.

Yan Shining looked at him in amazement, and the muscles on his face trembled slightly.

"Lord Yan, you did the thing, you deserve to die under the guillotine, that is your last dignity. Besides, you haven't hugged your grandson yet, how can you just die like this? ”

Song Ran was shocked by this sudden change and looked at them blankly.

She really didn't expect that Zhou Zicheng would be killed by the person in front of her.

Yan Shining seemed to be touched by Shen Hanxi's words, his lips trembled slightly, and then he loosened his whole body and collapsed to the ground, as if he had aged ten years in an instant. He raised his head weakly: "If you want to kill or chop, you will come at me......"

Shen Hanxi stood in front of him: "Does Lord Yan want to die like this?" The official can promise you that as long as you confess the person who is the leader, the official will ensure the stability of your family for a day in this official position, and now, it depends on whether Lord Yan believes in the official. ”

Yan Shining's eyes, which were already desperate, lit up with this sentence.

Wang Zhuo stepped forward, helped him up from the ground, tidied up his messy robe for him, and said, "I heard that Lord Yan named his unborn grandson Zhaohua, the sun and the moon are Zhaohua, rich and glorious, but it is really a good name. He will have many blessings to enjoy in the future. ”

Because he was blocked by Wang Zhuo, Song Ran couldn't see Yan Shining's expression, but he seemed to see his body stagnating slightly.

Then, he opened his mouth and said, "Can you give the old man a cup of tea?" ”

Wang Zhuo saw Song Ran standing at the table, so he said, "Trouble Miss Song." ”

When Song Ran heard this, he hurriedly poured a cup of tea, walked to Yan Shining's side, and handed it to him.

Yan Shining took the opportunity to take the teacup, held Song Ran's hand tightly, and said: "The girl has just arrived in Hangzhou Mansion, if you have the opportunity, you must listen to Guimengyuan Liu Erlang's "Splendid Notes", so that it is worth the trip." ”

Song Ran's eyes flickered, and he looked for his unclear words, but he had already let go of his hand and drank the tea. After drinking, he suddenly raised his hand and smashed the empty cup to the ground, his voice was as loud as a bell: "Shen Hanxi, the old man confessed his sins and bowed his head today, and now I will go to hell to see how long you can make waves!" It's still the same sentence, and it's ...... to look back."

Halfway through his words, his eyes suddenly protruded, his face distorted, and his mouth let out a roar that did not resemble a human voice, and then he fell to the ground in spasms, looking extremely painful.

Song Ran exclaimed: "Lord Yan! The picture was so tragic that her face turned pale. Shen Hanxi's face also changed, he walked in front of her, raised his sleeves, covered her gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Wang Zhuo." ”

Wang Zhuo immediately stepped forward, pressed the man who was twitching, and called in a low voice: "Lord Yan, Lord Yan? ”

In less than a moment, the man foamed at the mouth, and his soul was gone.

Wang Zhuo probed his neck, got up, and shook his head at Shen Hanxi: "My lord, it's hopeless." ”

Song Ran's shoulders trembled, and after a long time, a trace of blood regained on her delicate face, Shen Hanxi maintained the movement of raising her sleeves to protect her, and suddenly smiled desolately: "Miss Song, you see, this official didn't give him a chance." ”

She couldn't see his expression, she was distracted by his laughter for a long time, and before she could answer, his usual tone sounded in her ears again: "Deputy Envoy Wang, go and prepare a confession, press a handprint, and say to the outside world that Lord Yan suddenly fell ill and unfortunately died suddenly." As for how to be round, you figure it out yourself. ”

Wang Zhuo sighed silently, in this way, things that are obviously reasonable will not be taken advantage of again.

If those officials knew about it, they should say that their own adults had bent into tricks and forced people to death.

However, this is the only way to do this in this meeting.

He called the attendants outside the door and came in to deal with Yan Shining's body.

Shen Hanxi put his arm down and said, "Miss Song, this official is not in a very good mood right now. ”

Song Ran comforted in a low voice: "He bit the poison himself, don't blame the adult." ”

He suddenly held her hand and said, "Go out for a walk with this official." Without saying anything, he walked out of Yan's Mansion with her hand, walked to the shore of Xizi Lake, and asked her as he went, "Miss Song, what do you think, tell me." ”

Her hand couldn't be broken, so she had to let him hold it, settled down, and said: "Your Excellency suddenly sent Deputy Envoy Wang to Zhejiang two months ago, maybe it made some people nervous, he was afraid that the Lord would continue to investigate the case of illegal salt, so he started to kill Lord Zhou, who had the secrets of this case, and just in time for Liu Ming to have a grudge with Lord Zhou, he did everything possible to lead the trouble to Lord Liu's head. It is possible that the assassins who chased and killed the adults on the road were also in the same background, but it was also possible that other forces that were hostile to you took advantage of this east wind. ”

Her words coincided with Shen Hanxi's thoughts.

She suddenly asked again: "I don't know how the adults found out about Lord Yan's head?" ”

He seemed to be deliberately trying to test her, and said, "If it's Miss Song, where will you start to investigate?" ”

Song Ran had simply heard him say the facts of the case before, sorted it out in his mind, and said: "Liu Ming first broke into the Zhou Mansion to make trouble, and the Zhou Mansion happened to be destroyed that night, things will not be so coincidental, it must be instigated by someone." On the same day, Liu Ming first drank with people in the restaurant. If it were me, I would follow this clue and look it up. ”

Shen Hanxi commented: "Miss Song is so smart and clever, why do you have to pretend to be stupid on weekdays? He added, "There was a person who drank at the same time as Liu Mingxian that day, and he didn't have anything to do with him before, but he often mixed with him during that time. The official let Liuniang admit it, and it was really the one who made Chen Cripple commit perjury. Following his vine, he found Yan Shining. ”

Song Ran nodded: "In just a few days, the adult will solve the case, and it can be regarded as a success." It's just that as soon as Lord Yan committed suicide, the clue was broken again. ”

Shen Hanxi looked a little indifferent and said, "This is not something you should consider. Do you remember the last words he said to you? ”

Song Ran also remembered, frowned, and said, "Lord Yan said, let me listen to Guimengyuan Liu Erlang's "Splendid Story". ”

Shen Hanxi said: "Liu Erlang was once famous, and Guimengyuan is also hard to find because of his fame. But he had already passed away three years ago. ”

Song Ran was stunned by this sentence: "The immortal has passed away...... That, what Lord Yan means ......"

Shen Hanxi also frowned: "I don't know about this official, probably I'm old and confused." ”

Song Ran couldn't help but look at him in a daze, and then remembered that his hand was still in his palm, and he felt that his palms were itchy, and there were some itches in his heart.

He didn't realize it, and pulled her along the West Lake to walk back slowly. Visitors are like weaving, there are no less than hundreds of boats in the lake, all carved railings and painted arches, and the line is like flat ground. The wind blowing on the lake seemed to blow away some of the haze in my heart.

His voice sounded in the wind: "Miss Song, this official lives in the shadow of swords and swords, and every day he thinks about how to calculate others and how to guard against other people's calculations. Only when I am with Miss Song can I have something else to think about in my heart. ”

Song Ran's heart was beating wildly for his sudden confession.
