Chapter 10: Assassination

The crying noise made Jiang Yu feel extremely uncomfortable. Quickly swipe your thumb back and forth between your index knuckles.

Suddenly, her senses froze, and Shen Yanxi's fingers touched the back of Jiang Yu's hand.

A hint of coolness from the nails comes down the skin, making the irritability in people's hearts lighten.

Jiang Yu looked up in confusion.

The owner of the finger didn't look at it, and Shen Yanxi said to Jiang Zhihe: "Before the reason is found, any suspect should be postponed for interrogation." ”

Jiang Zhihe immediately understood and beckoned someone to come over: "Escort her down first." ”

The woman suddenly jumped to her feet: "If you don't catch the murderer, what are you doing with me!" ”

"I guess you also hope that the cause of your husband's death will be revealed as soon as possible, so please cooperate. However, at the time of the murder, you happened to be not at home, and your suspicion was very great, and you should be postponed for questioning. Take it down. Jiang Zhihe said in an unquestioning voice

The crying sound faded away, and Jiang Yu's tightly pursed lips loosened.

Shen Yanxi patted Jiang Yu's hand soothingly.

Jiang Yu retracted her hand and said, "I'll go back first." ”

Shen Yanxi smiled angrily: "You are the one who came, and you were the one who left first." ”

After that, he sent her to the house: "Good life sent people into the house"

Jiang Yu wanted to say no, but before she could say anything, she was interrupted by someone who told her.

Qiang said, "Miss, please." ”

Jiang Yu nodded, followed Qiang Ji all the way out and got into a carriage.

The carriage squeaked, and when it reached the corner of the second alley, Jiang Yu suddenly made a loud noise.

"Go to Wanderer's Street."

Qiang Ji didn't mean to stop the carriage at all and said, "Miss, it's the best choice to be alone." ”

Jiang Yu said: "How to choose is my business, you have two choices now, either send me there, or you continue to walk without stopping, I will jump down." ”

Qiang Ji listened to Jiang Yu's undoubted voice, and felt helpless: "Miss, don't embarrass me." Let's go back. ”

If she could go back, it wouldn't be her.

She likes the feeling of being in control and doesn't want anything to be left in the dark.

His intuition told him that the tragic death of the cross-meat man must have something to do with those homeless people.

Jiang Yu was about to jump, but Qiang hurriedly pulled him back, "Oh, my aunt, can't I send you there?" ”

How dare Qiang Ji let her alone, if there is any mistake, the master must pick his skin.

In fact, Jiang Yu wanted to go alone, but Shen Yanxi didn't know what was crazy, and she had to look at her everywhere.

Anyway, it's better to have a coolie than nothing. It can also come in handy.

The carriage drove all the way to the street of the homeless, and suddenly, an arrow feather broke through the wind and nailed to the horse's front leg with a clatter.

The horse was frightened and stopped with a wail.

Qiang Ji immediately drew his sword and shouted: "Miss be careful, don't move, there are assassins." ”

Just as Qiang Ji was about to resist a wave of attacks, there was no movement around.

Worried about fraud, his muscles tensed, mobilized the mental power of his whole body, and listened carefully to the sound.

Jiang Yu stayed in the carriage away from the window and sat in the dead corner.

He waited for a long time, but the archers didn't seem to have any intention of continuing the attack.

Qiang jumped out of the carriage neatly, stroked the horse with one hand to appease, and then neatly cut off the feathers with his sword.

At this time, Jiang Yu's voice sounded, "Continue to walk in the direction of Liumin Street." ”

Qiang Ji carried a sword in one hand and led the horse forward in the other.

Within ten steps, the arrow feathers shot diagonally to the side.

He immediately drew his sword and swung it down.

"Don't stop, keep walking." Jiang Yu ordered quietly.

The further you go, the more arrows you shoot.

Qiang could also see that the Assassins seemed to be trying to stop them from advancing.

His mind raced, thinking about it. He alone must not go after the assassin, and he must protect Jiang Yu's safety.

He immediately turned his horse's head and went back.

At this moment, he keenly sensed a different aura coming from the wind.

He immediately waved his hand and stabbed it with his sword, and a man in black flew into the air and fell down to the door.

Qiang Ji defused the offensive and shouted: "Who is coming? ”

A fierce fight came from outside the carriage.

Lift the corner of the curtain and look out.

The man in black was not tall, and his reaction was far less rapid than Qiang's, but every blow was precise and ingenious.

After a few moves, knowing that it was not an opponent, he turned around and was about to flee.

Qiang Ji chased a few steps and immediately stopped and turned back, knocking on the wooden edge of the carriage: "Miss, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, I'm not going to Wanderer Street for the time being, let's go home"

Qiang Ji secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Jiang Yu had dispelled the idea of going to Liumin Street.

He pulled out a few arrows from the carriage, took out a handkerchief and put it away.

Simply treated the wound on the horse's leg, and he was able to walk.

Two streets away, a figure chased after the man in black just now.

After returning to the mansion, Jiang Yu sat in her yard and took a small hammer, basking in the sun while knocking on walnuts.

When Shen Yanxi came back, he stood at the gate of the courtyard and watched quietly for a while.

Then he went back to his courtyard and changed his clothes before going to find Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu looked at the slender and handsome man walking against the light in a daze, and the warm light shrouded his figure, including it.

As he got closer, his eyes seemed to be deep as if they were hiding a pool of spring water. looked at Jiang Yu carefully.

"What are you looking at?" Jiang Yu asked, while picking up a small hammer and knocking a walnut to eat.

As soon as his hand touched the edge of the hammer, he was taken away by Shen Yanxi, and Chun Tao moved the chair he had prepared when he stepped into the courtyard gate.

Shen Yanxi sat next to Jiang Yu and knocked on walnuts: "I'm looking to see if you're hurt, why do you want to go to Liumin Street?" ”

Jiang Yu smiled indifferently, her eyes bent into crescents: "Didn't you go?" ”

Where Jiang Yu arrived intuitively, Shen Yanxi could naturally think of it.

"Go." After identifying the death and interrogating the confession by the way.

Not only did he personally go to the street of the homeless people, but he also observed the beggars on the side of the street along the way.

Jiang Yu asked, "Did you find anything?" ”

Shen Yanxi put the crushed and peeled walnut kernels on Jiang Yu's mouth.

Jiang Yu thought about it for a while, but chose to open her mouth and be fed.

"Yes, several beggars with red arms have been captured." Shen Yanxi said.

Preliminary observations show that the cause of the tragic death of the crossmeat man is either poisoning or infection.

Either possibility cannot be easily ruled out.

Shen Yanxi felt that she would continue to ask, such as the background of the characters, life experiences, enemies and recent contacts.

He didn't want Jiang Yu to be involved at all.

Jiang Yu reversed the topic and asked Shen Yanxi: "What about Qiang's disease?" ”

There are few times when he doesn't follow Shen Yanxi's sides, and there is always a difference between the guards and the secret guards.

"I've been punished."

Jiang Yu couldn't bear to say: "Actually, don't blame him, he has done a good job in that situation." ”

Shen Yanxi fed a walnut kernel into Jiang Yu's mouth and said, "If it were your person, wouldn't you punish him?" ”

Jiang Yu chewed the walnut kernel in her mouth without saying a word.

Jiang Xiaoyu is not a "person".

Silence is also an acknowledgment in disguise. If Jiang Yu makes a mistake in the middle of what she ordered, even if she has 10,000 excuses, she will be punished.

Jiang Yu's eyes fell on Shen Yanxi's slender hands, and her beautiful and powerful index finger clicked on the handle of the small hammer.

The finger stopped abruptly, and then pointed to the walnut shell on the ground, "How much did you eat in the afternoon, confiscate." ”

“……”

"It's not the prince's walnuts, I ordered the spring peaches to buy them."

"No one is allowed to eat any more, and the stomach is reserved for dinner."

Jiang Yu was dumbfounded.

In the evening, I went to the courtyard next door to rub a delicious dish, and I didn't eat for free, so there was no need to get along with the food.

Night.

A figure fell from the dark room.

Jiang Yu had a premonition, and collapsed on the bed without raising her eyelids and said, "Did you catch someone?" ”

Lou Canxue's voice sounded: "The subordinates are incompetent, I wanted to capture this person alive, but I chased him to the wilderness and let the man be rescued, only hurting his waist, abdomen and right arm." ”

Jiang Yu said: "It's okay, this person is prepared." ”

Strange, so weird. came prepared, the purpose was not Jiang Yu's life, and he could escape.

Who is it?

"Go and check the little beggar who went to Zujiangyue to grab food that day, and be careful not to expose it. Shen Yanxi should have sent someone to investigate. If necessary, you can borrow his hand and investigate the information. ”

"You can check it out for yourself." Jiang Yu added again.

"Yes." Lou Yanxue said: "Then do you still need to send someone around you?" ”

Jiang Yu pondered for a moment: "No need." ”

She could feel that when she went out with Shen Yanxi now, Qiang's attention was also on her, and she was more inclined to protect her.

And there are inevitably many of his secret guards all around.

Lou Canxue can still pick people to come and go when there are few people, and the replacement may alarm him.

Lou Yanxue got the order to do it immediately.

Jiang Yu was left alone in the dark room, so quiet that even the sound of her own breathing could be wirelessly amplified.

She touched the little rabbit next to her pillow and relaxed, and fell asleep.

The boundless loneliness spreads along the night, devouring everything.

Outside the hospital, Qiang was lame and endured the pain after the punishment, and walked back step by step.

Suddenly, I felt the flowers behind me tremble.

He jerked around, ignoring the pain in his body.

Nothing.

"Strange." Qiang scratched his head and muttered, "I heard a noise here." ”

The muscles of the whole body relax, and the pain returns in an instant.

After screaming a few times, Qiang endured the pain, tensed his face, put one hand to his mouth and blew a dark whistle.

Two secret guards with the Regent's Mansion sign came out of the horn without knowing it.

Qiang asked in a majestic voice, "Is there anything unusual tonight?" ”

"Nope." The two Dark Guards said in unison.

"Are you sure you haven't?" Qiang squinted, "If you get distracted, let your heads fall to the ground!" ”

The two guards still said in unison, "There really isn't. ”

Qiang Ji glanced back and forth at them for a moment: "Got it, go back and keep staring." Twelve points of vigilance are not allowed to let go of the movement of a single grass and tree. ”

"Yes."

Two Secret Guards disappeared.

Qiang Ji stared thoughtfully at somewhere, and for a moment he grinned and secretly screamed: "It hurts me to death." ”
