The guards heard Wei Ji's voice from a distance just now, but they didn't hear it clearly, and when they learned that Yu Zhi had fallen off the cliff, everyone's faces changed, and they were immediately divided into two teams, one side to protect Sima Pi, and the other side whistled to call the rest of the guards.

This group of guards are all Yu Zhi's own soldiers, led by a burly young man, since he heard that Yu Zhi had an accident, a face was as dark as iron, personally went to the cliff side to explore the environment, and when he came back, he hugged his fists and said: "Your Highness has seen with your own eyes that the king has fallen, and there are other people on the cliff at that time."

Sima Pi glanced at him coldly and said, "Hearing Wei Xiaolangjun shouting, I realized that Yu Lingjun had stumbled and fell. ”

Wei Ji's heart chuckled, Sima Pi said this, clearly intentionally clearing himself and pushing her out.

The leading guard immediately looked at Wei Ji, his gaze as sharp as a knife.

Wei Ji seemed to be frightened, stared at a pair of red eyes, and said nervously: "I saw someone standing on the edge of the cliff, and I saw that the figure was exactly what I saw today, he seemed to be watching the scene, and after a long time, his figure shook, and it was like this...... Vanish into thin air. ”

The guards held torches, and the light shone on Sima Pi and Wei Ji. Wei Ji is young, and she knows from her appearance that she is a pampered scholar Xiao Langjun at home, her tone is nervous, but her eyes are bright and open, and the first guard stared at her for a long time, judging in her heart that it is normal to behave like this, if this Xiao Langjun is calm and self-controlled, it will be suspicious.

A moment later, a group of people quickly arrived.

In addition to the guards of the Assassin's Mansion, there were also the guards brought by Sima Pi, the servants held torches in their hands, and many scholars from Yuzhang City also came, all of whom rushed to hear the news. Zhao Lin saw Sima Pi and Wei Ji together, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The guards of the Assassin's Mansion asked Wei Ji a few more questions, and Wei Ji replied vaguely, only saying that the incident happened suddenly, and he didn't see it very clearly, anyway, falling off the cliff was just an instantaneous thing, and he said it too clearly but deliberately.

"Yudu." Xie Xuan's voice came from the side.

Wei Ji turned her face away, only to see Xie Xuan coming over with his servants, and came to her in a few steps, "Fortunately, you are fine, you didn't say that you were going to rest in the ox cart, why did you come here?"

Wei Ji was about to get rid of the guard's repeated inquiries, and said softly with tears in her eyes: "I took the wrong way to get here, and I saw Yu Envoy Jun falling......

Since the two met, Xie Xuan had seen her cold appearance, who had ever seen her so helpless, and his heart softened, "Don't be afraid, I'll send you down the mountain." ”

The head guard recognized people, and he was embarrassed: "Xie Langjun, I still have something to confirm with Wei Xiaolangjun here." ”

Wei Ji said: "The incident happened suddenly, and I didn't see it too clearly. ”

The guard asked with a serious expression: "How did Xiao Langjun and His Royal Highness King Langya meet?"

Wei Ji had already thought of the answer just now, "I was afraid to scream, and His Highness rushed over from the mountain road when he heard the news." ”

Sima Pi was not far away, and when he heard what she said, he glanced at it quietly, and said in his heart that this little liar was clever, and it was exactly what he said just now.

After Wei Ji finished speaking, she immediately came to Xie Xuan's side, her face was full of fear, and she looked like she wanted to rely on.

In Xie Xuan's heart, although he was not married to the Wei family, he didn't know whether it was his eyes or anything else for Wei Xuan, so he naturally felt close. So he deliberately protected him, and said to the guard: "The Wei family Xiaolangjun is just a boy, if you can know something, it is important to go to the bottom of the mountain to find the envoy first." ”

The guards had a straight face, just now they saw that the cliff was bottomless, and it was difficult to survive. It's a pity that this can't be said clearly, and in the final analysis, Wang Xie Huanyu is now the most declining Yu family, he has no intention of arguing with Xie Xuan, and after thinking about it again, he feels that Wei Ji is indeed young and careless, and there is nothing suspicious, so he made a gesture to the two, turned around and sent more people to search the mountain overnight.

The scholars who stayed on the mountain heard that Yu Zhi had fallen off the cliff, and they were all shocked. In particular, the three surnamed scholars of Yuzhang all know that Jiangzhou is a dangerous place, Yu Zhi is dead, and the history of the next assassin is extremely important, and it is also the most important thing for the local scholars at the moment.

Crowds or groups of people whispered down the mountain.

Wei Ji disappeared for a while, someone was extremely concerned, Luo Hong and Luo Huan's brothers came to look for her, and seeing that she was fine, Luo Huan beckoned her to go together. Xie Xuan said: "Yudu was frightened, and I sent him down the mountain." ”

Luo Hong knew that Xie Wei's two families had a marriage, so he smiled and said a few words before leaving.

Wei Ji followed Xie Xuan's side, and when she turned to leave just now, Sima Pi looked over thoughtfully, but she didn't even look at him.

Leaving Zhangshan, even if this matter is understood, it has nothing to do with this madman, Wei Ji thought to herself.

When I came to the many waiting ox carts on the mountain road, it was dark, and the attendants were leading the way with lights in front of them.

Xie Xuan suddenly stopped.

The author has something to say:

Chapter 46: Peers

A neat and tall figure walked briskly up the mountain road, standing not far in front of Xie Xuanwei and Wei Jiao.

"Uncle Dao brother," Xie Xuan greeted first, "You have just left the mountain, how can you go and return?"

When it was dark, Huan Xin was about to leave, and other scholars might have to wait for the end of the Assassin Shi Yuzhi's speech before leaving, but Huan Xin did not have such scruples, he was not in high spirits today, and he had not climbed high with other scholars to recite poems and compose, and said that he wanted to leave and got on the ox cart and left.

I didn't expect to turn back at this time.

Huan Xin's eyes were dark, and his gaze swept over Xie Xuan and fell on Wei Xuan, who was one step behind, "I just arrived at the foot of the mountain and heard the guards whistle, what happened?"

Xie Xuan told him about Yu Zhi's stumbling and falling off the cliff.

Huan Xin frowned. Yu Zhi's death will affect the future belonging of Jiangzhou, and he knows this very well as a member of the Huan family.

Xie Xuan and Huan Xin are both from the four surnamed gates, they are of the same age, they know each other, but they have different personalities, and they can't be called friends. ”

Wei Ji waited for the two of them to talk just now, her back hurt faintly, her neck was also uncomfortable, and the place where Sima Pi had pinched her fiercely was extremely uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Xie Xuan finished speaking quickly, and she walked forward.

Just as he passed by Huan Xin's side, the corner of his eye swept over, and suddenly his eyes sank, and he took a diagonal step and stopped in front of Wei Xin, "What's the matter with you?"

Wei Ji quickly rushed to Xie Xuan's other side.

Xie Xuan looked at Huan Xin with a strange expression, "What does Uncle Dao mean?"

Huan Xin's voice was cold and stiff and asked: "You can't be blind, you didn't see that her clothes were rubbed with dirt, and her hair was combed again."

Before Xie Xuan could answer, Wei Ji had already spoken first, "I fell when I got lost, what's so strange, and what does it have to do with you?"

The tone of these words was not good, and Huan Xin was stunned when he heard this, and stood in place with his face drooping and not moving.

Wei Ji was also impatient, so she simply bypassed Xie Xuan and walked straight towards her ox cart.

The servants of the Wei family have been waiting anxiously for a long time, and just now I heard that Xiao Langjun of the Wei family has not seen anyone for a long time, and when he saw Wei Ji coming back, he almost burst into tears. Wei Ji helped the wood to get into the car, and suddenly her wrist was grabbed by a big hand.

She turned her face sideways and met Xie Xuanjunxiu's face, his eyes were complicated, and he stopped talking.

Wei Jiao's face was about to turn cold, but thinking that he had come to the mountain to relieve her from the siege just now, she was a little more patient again, "There is still something to do."

Xie Xuan's eyes fell on a few broken hairs on her sideburns, and they went down, and there were some dirt chips on the fur collar of her cloak, which should have been sorted out, but they were not careful enough, and there were still some traces. Xie Xuan was worried, but he just fell and rubbed the dirt behind him

His expression became a little complicated, and then he inadvertently glanced at Wei Jiao's neck, and a small piece of the originally tightly covered area was exposed due to Wei Jiao's turning movement, and his skin was slightly red and swollen.

Xie Xuan's expression was solemn, "What happened to you on the mountain?"

Wei Ji turned her wrist, but Xie Xuan seemed gentle, but her gesture was firm, she couldn't break free, frowned and said: "What you saw has been said just now, you still have to listen to it again."

Xie Xuan hesitated for a moment, and quickly said, "Yudu, if you encounter any difficulties, you can tell me directly, and I will try my best to help you." ”

Wei Ji looked straight over, and seeing a trace of worry in the depths of his eyes, she pursed her lips, then laughed, and asked rhetorically, "What happened to you and me?"

Xie Xuan was speechless for a while.

The smile on the corner of Xiao Langjun's mouth was full of sarcasm, the lights on the side shone on her face, and the porcelain white skin seemed to contain dazzling brilliance.

Xie Xuan only felt that the places swept by her gaze were slightly hot, and he couldn't help but let go of his hand.

The words I asked her just now were all from the bottom of my heart without thinking about it, but Xie Xuan only realized at this time, why did he unconsciously become nervous when he saw her coat and the marks on her neck, what was he worried about

A wave of enthusiasm rushed straight to his brain, and Xie Xuan suddenly realized that this little Langjun was born too well, so good that it made people reverie.

Wei Ji pouted and said, "You think I have something to do with the envoy's fall from the cliff."

Xie Xuan immediately shook his head, "I don't mean that." ”

Wei Ji said: "What I said on the mountain is true, it is getting late, I am afraid that my family will worry, I will go back first." After speaking, he didn't wait for Xie Xuan to respond, he got into the car directly and closed the door.

Xie Xuan smiled helplessly, the weakness on the mountain just now was only a moment, and this little Langjun returned to his previous cold appearance, but he could clearly feel that Wei Ji was not arrogant and ignorant of etiquette, whether it was getting along with Yu Zhang's disciples, or dealing with the guards on the mountain just now, she showed a sleek and cunning that did not match her age.

Xie Xuan watched the coachman drive the ox cart down the mountain, the lights and shadows swayed, not slow, slowly disappeared in the mountain road, he was slightly distracted, and only came back to his senses after being reminded by the servant, he sighed lightly, and suddenly realized that he was not too concerned about Xiao Langjun of the Wei family, even if Xiao Langjun was almost about to become his brother-in-law, but now that he has no in-laws, he always pays extra attention to him.

Xie Xuan frowned, too many things had just happened, he should be thinking about how to inform his family of Yu Zhi's death at the moment, and persuade his uncle to take this opportunity to join the government to fight for the position of Jiangzhou assassin. But when he thought of Yu Zhi, his brows furrowed, and he couldn't help but think of his habits that didn't go on the stage-Xie Xuan's heart suddenly sank, suspecting that Wei Ji's appearance tonight had nothing to do with Yu Zhi, and even ......

There was a sudden upset in his heart, Xie Xuan didn't think about it deeply, at this time, there was the sound of the guards' footsteps behind him, he turned around, and saw several guards walking around Sima Pi.

As the caller of this Yaji, Xu fell off the cliff because of the inexplicable assassination, Sima Pi did not squint all the way, and his face was solemn.

Xie Xuan turned sideways slightly, swept his gaze and froze, and after a hurried glance just now, he saw two shallow scratches on Sima Pi's cheeks, as if something had scratched them, such as fingernails

Xie Xuan lowered his eyelids and hid the complicated and shocked look in his eyes.

It was dark, and the coachman drove the ox cart slowly. As soon as Wei Ji got into the car, she couldn't stand it, she lay on the mattress and loosened her neckline slightly, her neck hurt like a fire, as well as her back and limbs, the pain continued, and her muscles and bones seemed to be pinched again. Just now, he didn't show it all the way, and there were no outsiders at this time, and the corners of Wei Ji's eyes were red, and he couldn't even move a finger.

She closed her eyes and was about to take a break.

The bullock cart stopped suddenly.

Wei Jiao's eyelashes lifted slightly, and her voice was extremely hoarse when she spoke, "What's the matter?"

It was not the coachman who answered outside the door, but the voice that made her deeply impressed and her scalp tingle.

"Wei Xiaolangjun was frightened today, and this king will send you all the way." Sima Pi said loudly.

Wei Ji woke up instantly, opened her eyes, her body straightened up suddenly, she gasped for a "hiss" in pain in her back, and immediately replied after she recovered: "Your Highness Lao is worried, this is the official road to Yuzhang, there is no obstacle on the road, please Your Highness first." ”

Her words were low and hoarse, caused by the choking of her throat just now.

When Sima Pi heard this, he smiled at the corner of his mouth, and deliberately asked, "Why did Xiao Langjun's voice become like this, but where did it hurt?"

Wei Ji scolded secretly in her heart, coughed and said, "Maybe there is too much mountain wind, just go back and rest." ”

Sima Pi got out of the carriage and came to the Wei family's ox cart, the coachman had no master, and he didn't know what to do. Sima Pi didn't sweep his eyes, and opened the door directly from the outside.

Wei Ji was already alert when she heard footsteps approaching outside, and quickly pulled her neckline and wrapped her cloak tightly.

Sima Pi saw Wei Ji lying still in the car, and only raised his head slightly to look over, his face was pale and his eyes were bright.

"How did you become like this" He felt that Wei Ji's appearance at this time was a little funny, and he suspected that she was deliberately selling pity. Reached out and grabbed her shoulders to lift her up.

Wei Ji was in pain, gasped and said, "...... Hurt. ”

Her voice was shady and heavy at this time, her breathing was unsteady, and her breathing and intonation had changed, but it gave people a charming reverie and illusion.

Sima Pi retracted his hand sharply.

Wei Ji fell back into the car, and the mattress under her still made her feel pain. Her eyes were full of suspicion, and she thought to herself that this King of Langya had rushed up to kill people

Sima Pi looked at her for a moment and said lightly: "I dealt with it well just now, I remember." ”

Wei Ji secretly gritted her teeth, but there was a grateful expression on her face.

Sima Pi sneered, slammed the door and left.

On the road, the guards obeyed the order to slow down, and the Wei family's ox cart slowed back and forth, and only separated when they entered Yuzhang City.

Wei Ji didn't dare to relax along the way, holding on to her spirit to pay attention to the movements outside. When she returned home, her face was pale and blue, which made Hui Niang startled.
