Chapter 37: Stopping the Assassination
I don't know who Warm Heart wants to kill, but it's not right to kill, she is a famous woman on the rivers and lakes, how can she become a killer who cares about human life by doing chivalrous deeds?
Grass Kan human life, I think this word is also appropriate for her, last month, she killed three people by accident, no, it was four, Qin Zhen was obviously killed.
And this morning, she is still preparing to ...... She wounded my eye and chased after me with her sword, if she didn't know me, would she have drawn it?
She said that I was voyeurizing, and I admitted that my actions were indeed misunderstood, but I had no malice at all, I just heard Wang Jiajia and them laughing, and I just wanted to take a look. Talking to Wang Jiajia on weekdays, the same is true.
If Warm Heart kills me because of this, and then charges me with a thief, then I am not unjustly killed? I really don't know if this confused woman has killed a good person by mistake in the past few years.
"Brother Jianghu, I feel like my heart is up and down." Wang Jiajia clutched her chest, her face full of anxiety: "I have a feeling that the person Sister Nuanxin wants to kill must not be simple, she has lived in my house for almost a month, and she will go to the street with me every day, I started to think that she was looking at things, and later found out that she was secretly looking for someone." That person must also be uncertain, so it's not easy to make a move. β
I looked out of the house, and Ah Niang was sifting soybeans in the yard, and a few yellow leaves were falling down, bringing a faint autumn breath.
Yes, it's been a month, the hottest month is finally over, did the warm-hearted enemy go out to escape the summer, so she couldn't find his trace?
"Jiajia, every time you go out with Nuanxin, where do you usually go shopping?" I asked, hoping for something to be gained.
Wang Jiajia thought for a while: "It's the street in front of the Assassin's Mansion, and then walk to the Jianghu Inn, then pass through the intersection on the east side of the inn, go to Xiangzhou Academy, and then go to the market in the west." β
I thought about the route she said, and I was suddenly surprised: "In other words, you actually walk around the Thorn Mansion every day?" β
"Hmm." Wang Jiajia nodded, and suddenly became nervous: "Brother Jianghu, what do you mean, do you ...... Are you saying that Sister Warm Heart is going to kill someone in ......"
"Do you remember? We suggested that Nuan Xin report to the official a long time ago, but Nuan Xin said that Xu County's order could not be controlled. Does she mean that Xu Countyling's official position is smaller than that of her enemies, and people are soft-spoken? β
"That'...... Could it be that the person Sister Warm Heart wants to kill is Meng Sima? Or a history of thunderthorns? Or maybe ......"
"Chincha!" I had an ominous premonition in my heart: "I heard Long Yuhan mention that Qin Cha has always been uncertain, and Qin Cha is very afraid of heat, every time in the hot season, he will always find a shady place to hide, and he will not come out until he has no choice, and he will not show up until the autumn and the weather is cool." β
"Ahh That...... So what can I do? Wang Jiajia was so anxious that she circled around the house: "There must be a master guard around Qincha, how can Sister Warm Heart get close to him?" Besides, the assassination of Qin Cha is a capital crime, and Sister Warm-hearted......"
"Okay, now that it's over, we can't hide it for her anymore, Jiajia, I know you've gotten along well with Nuan Xin in the past month, but there are some things you have to calm down. If the person you want to kill is really Chincha, then she is no longer your friend. She may be a killer, or indeed a meticulous work! β
"No, how could it be? How can Sister Warm Heart be a fine work? Wang Jiajia shook her head, but tears flowed down her eyes.
"Remember Wang ...... Forehead...... Did Master ask me to go to the mass grave to dissect the corpse on the first day of my birthday? I put my arm on Wang Jiajia's shoulder and asked: "That person's name is Zhu Jiang, that is, Tubo Xizuo, he pretended to flee, had nowhere to live, lived in Long Yuhan's house, called Long Yuhan brothers, and entered the Tianyan team." β
"You mean, Sister Warm Heart too...... No, Sister Warm Heart is different, what can't we help her? How could she possibly take advantage of me? β
"A woman wandering around the Thorn Mansion alone, it's easy for people to notice, if the two of them are playing together, and you are still the daughter of Wang Fatzi, will others still suspect it?"
"However, she is a chivalrous woman, and she told me a secret, she is the heroine Baiyun Fairy." Wang Jiajia argued: "She has told me a lot of stories about her chivalry and righteousness, which are even more wonderful than what Uncle Fang told." β
"Jiajia, in fact, there is one thing I didn't tell you, I am now a candidate for the Tianyan secret agent, and I am still in the assessment period, if I pass the assessment, I will be an elite secret agent, and I will be directly loyal to Qincha."
"Agent?" Wang Jiajia looked at me and was silent for a moment: "Brother Jianghu, I know what you have done is a good thing, just a warm-hearted sister...... Can you go find her, and let's go and convince her to give up the assassination, okay? β
I know that this girl's idea is still too naΓ―ve, if the warmth is really careful, how can we persuade it in a few words, but looking at Wang Jiajia's sad appearance, I still nodded, and grabbed a few copper plates from the box: "Okay, I'll go and think of a way, you accompany your mother at home, and I'll be back soon." β
I ran to the mouth of the alley next to the Jianghu Inn in one go, looked left and right to see that there was no one, and put a copper coin under the floor tiles according to Xiao Mu's words.
But after putting it away, I wondered again, will that little Mu come here? How often does he come to check? Where do I need to wait? What if someone else passes by and picks up the copper coin?
I think Xiao Mu's method is still not very reliable, if it is not urgent, it is feasible, but if it is urgent, it is not easy to meet.
"Put things down and go, what are you still wandering around here? Are you afraid that others will not know that you are a secret agent? Just knock the gong and call me out to see each other. β
I turned around and looked, overjoyed: "Xiao Mu! β
Xiao Mu had already picked up the copper coin I had put away, wiped it on his shirt, and put it directly into his cloth bag.
"You ......" I felt a pain in my heart, I really regretted using copper coins as a code, and if I went on like this, every time I saw him, wouldn't it mean that I had to pay a penny?
"What's wrong with the eyes? Was peeking at someone's little lady taking a bath and getting beaten? Xiao Mu smiled.
"Fall...... Fell. I also smiled: "There is a particularly urgent matter, but I don't know if my inference is correct, after thinking about it, I think it is necessary to report it to you." β
"Say."
I cleared my throat and told me everything about heartwarming.
Xiao Mu crossed his hands on his chest, leaned against the courtyard wall of the Jianghu Inn, closed his eyes, and didn't know if he was listening to me carefully, or if he was already asleep.
"That's all." I suddenly felt a sense of relief: "Last time in the teahouse, I stopped you and said that a person was a little suspicious, which meant a warm heart, but I promised not to reveal her whereabouts, so I hid it from you." β
Xiao Mu smiled contemptuously: "Didn't you say, 'A gentleman's word, a horse is difficult to chase'?" If you promised someone else, why did you tell me? Righteous annihilation? β
I pursed my lips: "I know that Brother Mu is resourceful and will definitely be able to find a way to stop her." If the person she was going to kill was really Chincha, it would be a capital crime. She is a friend that Jia Jia just met, that is, my friend, and I don't want her to go astray. And she may also be the heroine Baiyun Fairy, a hero who has been admired by the people in the past few years, and I hope that Brother Mu will find a way to save her life for the sake of her chivalrous deeds. β
Xiao Mu finally opened his eyes, took out a fan from his cloth bag and shook it: "Do you want to hear a story?" β
I was stunned: "What story?" β
"A story of sisterhood."
"Can you be serious, I'm about to burn my eyebrows, can't I tell a story later?" I was really anxious: "Haven't you already recruited some spies?" Inform them, let them find the whereabouts of Warm Heart, and then we will go to her together and ask her to understand, if the person she wants to kill is really Qincha, maybe there is some misunderstanding between them? Let's just explain it, right? β
Xiao Mu didn't seem to hear what I said, and asked, "Have you heard of King An?" β
"King An?" I was stunned: "You mean the king An who has passed away?" I heard that Qin Cha had a very good personal relationship with him when he was in Chang'an, does this have anything to do with what I said? β
"King An was the most favored prince of the Emperor Taishang back then, three years ago, when King An was weak, the notice of choosing a concubine was all over the world, which shows that the Emperor Taishang loved this son very much.
There are more than 60 children of the emperor, and there are favored, of course, there is no shortage of jealous and hateful people. is the most ruthless emperor's family, what brothers and sisters, for the throne, for power, it has always been common to fight openly and secretly.
On the day of King An's wedding, Princess An disappeared mysteriously. Qin Cha was invited to the palace to help King An investigate the disappearance of the princess, and had a good conversation with King An, became close friends, and won a gold medal, so that he could enter and leave the palace freely.
There are two palace maids in King An's bedroom, the elder sister's name is Su Xin, and the younger sister's name is Nuan Xin. Both sisters and their parents died, and they depended on each other in the palace. β
What? Heartwarming? I held my breath and listened to Xiao Mu continue:
One day, Qin sent to King An's bedroom for a nap, and found that Su Xin was acting in a panic, so he pretended to be in love and made a little unruly behavior towards him, but in fact, it was for body search. Sure enough, a bottle of broken intestine grass was quickly found from her. β
"Broken Intestine Grass!" I was taken aback: "I heard Wang Fatzi say that this poison is highly poisonous. How could it be on King An's palace maid? β
"Yes, Qin Cha was also shocked at the time, but he didn't make a noise, and secretly took the poison out of the palace and threw it away. After that, Qin Cha kept an eye on that Su Xin, and finally discovered a conspiracy. β
"What conspiracy?" My heart also rises to my throat.
Xiao Mu still looked calm: "Someone used his heart-warming life to threaten Su Xin to poison King An, and the time was set on the day of the cherry feast." Because all the people with the title of the gold list entered the palace that day, even if King An was poisoned and died, it would be difficult to find out the murderer.
Qin Cha was not yet an official at that time, but for the sake of King An, he resolutely gave up the opportunity to show his talent in public, found an excuse to leave the Calyx Tower, and went to King An's bedroom again to check Su Xin's whereabouts. β
I couldn't help but ask, "Does that stop Su Xin from poisoning?" β
Xiao Mu smiled coldly: "What about you?" Can you stop the heart-warming revenge? β
"We ......"
"Hey, it's worthy of being a sister, and their tempers are all the same!"
"Su Xin made a move?"
