Chapter 4: Behind the Assassination
Chapter 4: Behind the Assassination
Looking at Wang Wuji's appearance, Fan Zhixiang had a feeling of furiousness in his heart: "What are you doing?" ”
Wang Wujian sighed: "Should you say that you are like like things, or should you say that you are influenced by someone?" It seems like you're getting into trouble at a level that is close to someone's. In Chang'an City, you actually provoked others to kill you, and besides, one killer is not enough, and you sent a group of people pretending to be people from Chang'an Mansion to kill you, who did you offend? ”
After Fan Zhixiang heard this, he smiled: "I think, this should be what your Fuya is going to do, right?" Look, I've been kind enough to leave you alive. Try hard, pry what you want out of his mouth! Otherwise, I guess you'll have to keep busy. After speaking, he yawned a lot: "I'm sleepy, I'll go home first, if you have anything to ask, I'll go to Fuya tomorrow." ”
Seeing Fan Zhixiang leave like this, Wang Wuqian was so angry that his nose was almost crooked, but he couldn't get angry, so he could only kick the assassin who had just woken up hatefully: "It's all you guys, so I can't rest so late!" The kick happened to hit the man's nose, and suddenly the man fainted in pain.
Wang Wujian was not interested in how to interrogate the prisoner Fan Zhixiang, in addition to guessing, the head catchers also needed evidence, and he only needed to deduce who did it himself.
Back in the house, Fan Zhixiang's attack was already known to his family, and as soon as he returned to the house, he was immediately called to the side hall, where Fan Yuan and Mrs. Fan, as well as Fan Zhiluo, the son of the Fan family, had been waiting for him for a long time.
"Daddy, mother, big brother!" After Fan Zhixiang saw the three of them, he saluted respectfully and stood aside: "You haven't rested so late?" ”
Mrs. Fan pulled him to her side: "Zhixiang, what's going on tonight?" I've heard that a lot of people are going to kill you, are you hurt? ”
Fan Zhixiang smiled and shook his head: "Mother, don't worry, it's just some gangsters asking for money, those people are not children's opponents, and now the people in Chang'an Mansion have locked them up." It's not early, my mother's health is not very good, let's rest early! ”
"Alas, you look like this, how can I rest in peace!" Speaking of this, Mrs. Fan couldn't help but cough a few more times.
Seeing Mrs. Fan's appearance, Fan Zhixiang frowned slightly: "Mother, when Ling'er comes back, let her take a look for you!" This disease is not a way to drag on like this all the time! ”
Although Mrs. Fan still wanted to refuse, Fan Yuan had already spoken: "It's okay to ask Miss Wu to come and take a look for you, your body is more active, and people are more relaxed." It's not early, you should rest early! ”
It was indeed not early now, so Mrs. Fan got up and went back to the back hall.
After Mrs. Fan left, Fan Yuan asked, "Do you know who did it tonight?" ”
Fan Zhixiang shook his head: "The other party's plan is very thorough, if it weren't for me to hide my strength usually, they would definitely succeed today!" After speaking, he told Fan Yuan what he had encountered tonight.
After listening to Fan Zhixiang's words, Fan Yuan's brows furrowed, and after a while, he turned his head and asked Fan Zhiluo beside him: "Luo'er, what do you think?" ”
"The assassination of the third brother should not be the strength of any faction in the capital, but if Zaiyi's matter was not done by the King of Chu, the assassination of the third brother should not be done by the King of Chu!" Fan Zhi analyzed it a little and said: "This way, on the bright side, seems to be aimed at Cheng Xun, in order to weaken his strength, but in fact, people who are familiar with Cheng Xun know that whether it is strategy or martial arts, Cheng Xun is not inferior." What's more, the saint has always been very fond of Cheng Xun, and plans to use Cheng Xun to balance the prince and the king of Chu, if anyone cuts off Cheng Xun's arm, in exchange for the anger of the son of heaven, neither the prince nor the king of Chu will do such a stupid thing. ”
Fan Zhixiang nodded: "So, I suspect that there is another secret force planning something." Maybe that force is not the power of our Tang Dynasty, once it succeeds in provoking the relationship between the three princes, it will definitely be those foreigners who will benefit in the end. ”
Fan Yuan stroked his beard and looked at Fan Zhixiang with some satisfaction: "Not bad!" This possibility is not out of the question! Especially now that he is preparing to start a war with Beidi, if there is civil strife in the Tang Dynasty at this time, it will be a great opportunity for Beidi. ”
"This expedition, I'm afraid it's not that simple. Maybe...... Third brother, it's time to write a letter to remind you of righteousness! Fan Zhiluo looked at Fan Zhixiang and said: "The Holy Lord sent Zaiyi to go out with the army, but he did not use the hussar general, which proves that the Liu family will be in the past tense." The Nangong family is only afraid that they are going to come out. In order to combat the arrogance of the hussar general's subordinates, I am afraid that General Nangong will take Zaiyi. Or will send him to the front line, after all, the Liu family still has a Zairen, even if something happens to Zaiyi, he is not afraid of the Liu family's despair. Fan Zhiluo said this, and looked at Fan Zhixiang with some concern, his third brother has played with Li Chengxun and Liu Zaiyi since he was a child, and his feelings are like brothers, if something happens to Liu Zaiyi, he will definitely not be able to stand it.
Fan Zhixiang thought for a while and said: "As long as it is not deliberately aimed at Zaiyi, I think that with Zaiyi's skills, there should not be any danger." Even if General Nangong wants to target Zaiyi, he doesn't dare to be too presumptuous, just like we know, Zaiyi is a person who has been labeled as Cheng Xun, and if the saint wants to use Cheng Xun to balance the prince and the king of Chu, it will be impossible for people to break off Cheng Xun's arm. No matter how strong Cheng Xun is, he is just one person, and he always needs something to help take care of by his side. Before Cheng Xun didn't go to Dongyue and ran his own team, Zai Yi and I were Cheng Xun's right-hand men. Even if General Nangong wants to carry righteousness, it will not be too much. ”
"It's for the best! If Zaiyi has any accidents, it will not be good for Cheng Xun, and it will also be a big trouble for the prince. Fan Yuan nodded and said to Fan Zhixiang: "Until the real murderer of your assassination is found out, you'd better go outside." Stay at home and read at the academy with peace of mind! ”
"Yes!" Fan Zhixiang went back to the academy in two days, and he also agreed with Xiao Ming that all the information about Ling Er would be sent to the academy's guard hall in the future, after all, if he was in the academy, it would be impossible to go to the courtyard once every three days to get the news.
Seeing that things had been sorted out, Fan Yuan said to Fan Zhixiang: "You ...... tomorrow Tell Cheng Xun about these situations and ask him to send someone to investigate the situation of those foreigners in Chang'an City. ”
Fan Zhixiang nodded: "The child knows!" ”
After Fan Yuan left, Fan Zhiluo stood up and patted Fan Zhixiang's shoulder: "Be careful in the future, this time they failed, next time, they will definitely send more powerful people over!" Maybe...... The people of the Dark Pavilion will also ...... In short, be careful yourself! ”
Facing the eldest brother's worries, Fan Zhixiang knew slightly: "Don't worry, eldest brother, I will be careful!" ”
Knowing that his younger brother was not a reckless person, Fan Zhiluo was also much relieved: "Okay, it's night, rest early!" ”
"Well, big brother should rest early!"
Back in his yard, Fan Zhixiang asked someone to prepare a little, and then came to the hot spring bath. Chang'an has a benefit, that is, there are many hot springs, Fan Zhixiang may be because the body is a turtle, so he has a special love for water, especially after awakening, Fan Zhixiang returned home, every night will go to the hot spring pool to take a dip. You must know that his real strength is the power to control water, and as for the power of the earth, it is the true strength of the little snake, but because the two people are symbiotes, they can completely borrow each other's strength. This is equivalent to two people cultivating one power each, but they can use two powers.
Immersing himself in the water, Fan Zhixiang carefully sorted out the recent events in Chang'an, and after a while, another thing came to his mind, that is, what Wu Ling'er said before, the queen's epidemic is too strange. There is absolutely no problem with the fruit that is given to the emperor, let alone the fruit that is directly paid to the emperor. Although Wu Ling'er destroyed all the fruits because she was worried about the spread of the epidemic in the palace, Wu Ling'er could also be sure that it was indeed an epidemic cloth and not poisoning at that time. But Wu Ling'er still felt very suspicious about these epidemics.
Fan Zhixiang thought about it carefully, if the palace had problems because of this epidemic, the entire Tang Dynasty would become turbulent, in this case, would it be somewhat the same as the current situation?
Although Li Qian can avoid this epidemic because of the evil bead, the palace is also the spiritual pillar of a country, if something happens to the people in the palace, the panic will definitely spread throughout the country, and the Tang Dynasty will definitely be in chaos.
