A month has passed since Xin Zhen's study, and the time has entered late autumn, which is about a little abnormal in the climate, and the first snow fell in late autumn.

Although Zhao Zhongyan asked people to make warm clothes for Xin Zhi, Xin Zhi was worried that Xin Qiji would not be able to take care of himself, and said that he would go back to have a look.

Although Zhao Zhongyan was funny in his heart, he was also willing to fulfill Xin Zhen's filial piety, and he was instructed to be careful, and sent a coachman to send Xin Zhi back, but Xin Zhi said that he hadn't gone out for a long time, and he wanted to take a good look at Jiangyin City after the snow.

Zhao Zhongyan also went with him.

Xin Zhi was wearing Zhao Zhongyan's customized winter clothes, with Zhao Zhongyan's consumption habits, clothes are naturally a good thing, and Zhao Zhongyan's nutrition for eating here is very sufficient.

Xin Zhi looked left and right, looking at Jiangyin City after the snow, and his heart was quite rare, he was a southerner in his previous life, and he hadn't seen much snow in the south, so this snow was still quite rare.

There will be a creaking sound when stepping on the snow, and the snow on the bamboo leaves will suddenly tilt down, and he will be covered with snow, and even snow particles will slip from his neck into his back, and immediately turn into a cold under the warm body temperature, he will not think it is angry, and even take some and lick it with his tongue.

For him, it is indeed new and interesting.

There were a few laughs in the bamboo forest.

When Xin Zhi heard this, he was immediately a little ashamed, thinking that someone was laughing at him for not seeing the world.

The next moment, a few people came out from the depths of the bamboo forest, all of them were stout men, their faces were not kind, and they had a mole on their faces, looking at him with a playful smile.

Xin Zhi was suddenly shocked, looking at the situation, these people were coming for him, but he didn't know if he was prepared or the path cutting thief.

Xin Zhi immediately turned around and ran, he hadn't gone deep into the bamboo forest, as long as he ran out of the bamboo forest, there would be pedestrians on the avenue outside, and these people would not dare to be too rampant.

But after running a few steps, he could only stop, because the exit had been blocked, Xin Zhi observed the bamboo forest, wanting to see that there was no way to escape, and the strong man with a mole sneered and said: "Just tie your hands, you can't run." ”

Hearing this, Xin Zhen's heart sank.

This isn't a path-cutting thief, it's for him!

Xin Zhen's head was running quickly, trying to find a way to get out, seven or eight strong men approached together, Xin Zhi asked, "You want money?" ”

The strong man smiled: "Someone wants to take the lives of your father and son, understand?" ”

Hire a murderer!

Xin Zhen's heart sank suddenly.

It's just that he didn't think about who the Xin family had offended, he didn't offend anyone on his side, it was probably his father's side, but Xin Qiji's side didn't seem to have done anything recently, even if he did something, it wouldn't be so intense to hire a murderer, right?

Seven or eight strong men are fast After all, Xin Zhi couldn't help despairing in his heart, even if he was an adult, in the face of seven or eight strong men, it would be impossible to escape, not to mention that he was just a child, how could he resist it.

Xin Zhi is a person who knows the times very well, and he raised his hands and said, "I won't resist, please be lighter." ”

A man laughed: "It is said that Xin Qiji is a man, why is his son so?" ”

The strong man who took the lead smiled and said, "It can be regarded as his knowledge of current affairs and less suffering." ”

The rest laughed scoffingly.

The strong man waved his hand and said, "Plug your mouth and put it in a bag!" ”

Xin Zhi did not resist, but they still tied their hands and feet and gagged his mouth, but the cloth that gaged his mouth was rough and had a fishy smell that made him almost nauseous, and then he was put in a bag and thrown into a carriage, and the chariot driver walked for an unknown amount of time before he was picked up and taken into a room.

Coming out of the bag, the strong man just removed the cloth from his mouth, but his hands and feet did not let go, let it be tied, and locked the door and went out.

Xin Zhen looked out from the window, it seemed that it was already dark, and he sighed.

There are naturally anxious, worried, and afraid of these emotions, but more often they feel troublesome, and they are obviously coming for their father and son, but they don't know who the person behind them is, what the purpose is, and why they use such means.

Now that they don't start, they can guess that Xin Zhi can guess that their real purpose is Xin Qi disease, Xin Qi Ji will not die, and it will be useless for him Xin Zhi to die.

So, now they should send a message to their father, and then the father will confirm that he is missing, and then follow their script.

I just don't know how my father will deal with it, whether he came alone or with officers and soldiers?

Xin Zhen feels troublesome, not the current situation, but the next will be very troublesome, the people who are exposed in front now are obviously not the main masters, even if these people are taken down, there are many things behind, very troublesome, the world is like this, as long as you want to do something, it will inevitably hurt the interests of others, and others will come with knives and guns.

Just as Xin Zhi did, Xin Qiji had already received the information.

As soon as he returned home from the Yamen, he saw a piece of paper on the table, on which it was written: Xin Zhi is in our hands, if we want to save his life, we will go to the evening pavilion by the river in the west of the city tomorrow morning.

Xin Qiji frowned, went out across the horse and rushed to Zhao Zhongyan's house, Zhao Zhongyan had not rested, and when he saw Xin Qijian who came in a hurry, he knew that there was something urgent, and asked, "You'an, what's wrong?" ”

Xin Qiji said: "Mr. Zhao, is Xin Zhi there?" ”

Zhao Zhongyan exclaimed: "He went back today, didn't you see him?" ”

Xin Qiji handed the note to Zhao Zhongyan, and Zhao Zhongyan said angrily after reading it: "Who dares to touch my disciples of Zhao Zhongyan, they are looking for death!" You'an, immediately mobilize people and horses to General Xu of the Jiangyin Army to encircle and suppress the thieves! ”

Xin Qiji hurriedly stopped Zhao Zhongyan: "Mr. Zhao, they are threatening the lives of the dogs, if they rashly use the officers and soldiers, I am afraid they will kill the dogs." ”

Zhao Zhongyan frowned and said: "They are coming for you, if you go, your life will not be saved, and Xin Zhi will not be able to live." ”

Xin Qiji nodded and said: "That's the truth, but now it's indeed a rat trap, if they see us using officers and soldiers, they will indeed tear up the ticket, now the time is too urgent, I don't know where they are hiding people, otherwise I can directly hit the thief's nest and rescue Xin Zhen." ”

Zhao Zhongyan frowned and thought for a while: "I want to find a way, I do have some power at hand, but these forces should not be exposed......"

Xin Qiji hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhao, if it is not suitable, forget it, I will solve this matter." ”

Zhao Zhongyan shook his head and said: "No, Xin Zhi is my only disciple, I can't watch him die, you can stay here first, I will inform you if there is news." ”

Xin Qiji shook his head and said: "I'd better go back, I'm afraid that they have some news to inform me, if they can't find me, I'm afraid that something will happen to Xin Zhi." ”

Zhao Zhongyan suddenly came to his senses: "Okay, then you go back quickly, I will send someone to protect you secretly." ”

Xin Qiji said gratefully: "Mr. Zhao, thank you. ”

Zhao Zhongyan patted Xin Qiji's shoulder and said, "Don't worry too much, these are just ghosts, they don't dare to see the light, they will only hide in the shadows and make small moves, they can't do anything." ”

Xin Qiji smiled bitterly: "These villains can't do anything, but they are very bad." ”

Zhao Zhongyan snorted coldly and said, "Then it depends on whether they can bear it!" ”
