There was a touch of coldness on the corner of Jiang Manquan's mouth, and he said lightly: "The dignified Zuo Wei led the general to visit in the snow just to have a drink with the official?"

He looked at Ying Zi'an with sarcasm in his eyes: "Do you think I will believe it?"

The two were officials in the same dynasty and in Kyoto, and they knew each other for many years, but they were never acquainted.

Is there any need to drink alcohol between people who don't know each other?

Naturally not.

These words were very polite, but Ying Zi'an's face was not angry and embarrassed, and he also turned a blind eye to the mockery on Jiang Manquan's face, he untied the knife hanging from his waist and put it on the table, and then said, "I just want to have a drink with you." ”

If the first time you say this, it may be casual, but the second time you say it, it must be true.

The sarcasm at the corner of Jiang Manquan's mouth gradually disappeared, and he asked, "There must always be a reason." ”

Li Xiu didn't tell Ying Zi'an a reason, and naturally he wouldn't say a reason to Jiang Manquan.

After thinking about it, he said, "It's kind of practicing it for you." ”

The expression on Jiang Manquan's face stiffened slightly, and then became colder.

He stared at Ying Zi'an, his face expressionless, but his heart tightened for no reason.

The meaning of the practice is very clear, that is, to send him away, this departure should not be out of the capital, but really gone.

"How?"

Jiang Manquan asked.

Even if Ying Zi'an, the general of the left guard in front of him, is the twenty-third ranked Youye powerhouse on the grass paper, it is impossible to kill him within a few moves, and the guards in the entire Jiangfu will rush over at that time, even if Ying Zi'an is strong, he will die here.

Moreover, such a stupid thing as killing a member of the imperial court should not be able to be done by Li Xiu and the crown prince.

Ying Zi'an just looked at him quietly and didn't speak.

Jiang Manquan sat in his seat and was silent for a long time, then waved his hand and shouted outside the door.

The housekeeper answered.

After only a few moments, the people in the mansion had already sent all the wine and food, and there were only a dozen dishes in total, which was not luxurious, but it was still hot, and it seemed just right in the cold and snow of early winter.

Now that everything has already begun, then this official wants to see how you Li Xiu plans to kill me?

Jiang Manquan snorted coldly, ordered someone to serve two jars of good wine, and did not speak, but drank by himself.

Ying Zi'an's meal is very large, or the amount of food for people who practice martial arts is not small, he ate two large bowls of rice in a row, and felt that the hunger in his stomach was slightly relieved, he looked at the falling snow outside the window, and felt that his heart was unprecedentedly peaceful at this moment.

Over the years, because he grew up in Changlin since he was a child, his heart has been tormented almost every day, on the one hand, he is afraid of his identity being exposed, and on the other hand, he is grateful for the prince's trust.

Until last night, Li Xiu told him that the crown prince had known his identity for a long time, but he pretended not to know and never mentioned it.

So this gratitude became stronger, and at the same time, there was more guilt.

"It has always been rumored in the court that Lord Jiang is greedy for life and afraid of death, and is as timid as a mouse, but now it seems that most of the rumors are really not credible. ”

Ying Zi'an raised his eyes to look at Jiang Manquan and said softly.

Although the two of them are not familiar with each other, and they have never been alone before, it is only in this short period of less than half an hour that they can see that Jiang Manquan is much stronger than the rumored person.

If someone dares to underestimate this person, they will definitely suffer a big loss.

"I'll assume you're praising me, but the official is really curious, what exactly do Li Xiu and the crown prince want to do?"

Jiang Manquan picked up a towel and wiped his hands, not angry, and asked rhetorically.

Ying Zi'an was silent for a while, and then said, "If I say I don't know, do you believe it?"

Jiang Manquan didn't speak, and the atmosphere became quiet and solemn again for a while.

"People can live for many years in this life, and there is no way to choose their origin, but they can choose death, and the process of death can also be chosen, and they can also do many wrong things, but they can't stand in the wrong line. ”

Ying Zi'an looked at it and continued: "What's more, the adult stood wrong twice. ”

One time is enough to kill, but Jiang Manquan's luck is very good, the first time he didn't die, he immediately stood the second time, but he stood wrong again.

This is very fatal, and there is no reason to live anymore.

"What's right or wrong?"

Jiang Manquan was also looking at him, his hands spread out at his side, and asked.

How to define right and wrong?

It's not a moral issue, so it's not that easy.

The crown prince and the king of Wu are evenly matched, so there is no right or wrong.

Ying Zi'an suddenly stopped talking, and Jiang Manquan didn't speak, and the two fell silent at the same time, each waiting for the next follow-up.

Time passed in a hurry, the wine on the table had been warmed twice, and the dishes had already been withdrawn.

A chaotic noise sounded outside the gate of Jiangfu, followed by the shouts of the housekeeper, which sounded like he was asking who was coming, where did he dare to forcibly break into the mansion of the first product of the dynasty?

But there was no answer, and then there was a slight smell of blood in the air, and the voice of the housekeeper disappeared, and the sound of swords unsheathed around him sounded one after another.

The shouts of the guards and the sound of the walls collapsing in the house rang out one after another, and after a while, calm was restored.

Then there was the sound of the neat and uniform grinding of Ming Huangjia, and then the door of the house was pushed open, and the prince led the left guard to lead the deputy general Yang Xueping to walk in.

The two doors were opened together, and from behind the doors you could see the scene inside the courtyard, dozens of Three Realm guards and two Wandering Commanders were killed on the spot, and the butler also died at the forefront, the warm blood stained the snow and the white heat visible to the naked eye floating upwards.

The strong smell of blood entered the house, and the scene was very large.

Countless people had gathered outside the gate of the mansion and stood up, and there was no telling how many spies were hiding in the crowd.

Jiang Manquan sat on the main seat, and when he saw this scene, he did not panic at all, but his originally restless heart was completely relaxed, he looked down at Yang Xueping, and sneered on his face.

The sixth prince led the forced break into the mansion of Shangshu Jiang Manquan in broad daylight, and beheaded dozens of people in the mansion without saying anything, including the housekeeper and his subordinates.

No matter what kind of reasons and excuses, when this matter spreads, even if Li Xianyi's position as the crown prince will not be impeached, it will definitely loosen a lot, but he will definitely not die.

Li Xiu, Li Xiu, do you think that temples are the same as rivers and lakes? If you want to solve the problem with your fists like this, it seems that you have been too high in thought before.

Quickly calculating the cause and effect in his mind, Jiang Manquan's heart became more confident.

He looked at Yang Xueping and was about to speak, but saw that Yang Xueping didn't look at him but walked straight towards Ying Zi'an.

"After finding out that the former left guard led the general Ying Zi'an is a demon in Changlin, today I will come to arrest at the will of the prince, if there is resistance to kill, come to someone, take it for me. ”

Behind him, the prince walked towards Ying Zi'an with a sword in hand.

Jiang Manquan, who was on the main seat, got up, a drop of cold sweat flowed down his forehead, and his face turned pale.

Ying Zi'an did not resist, stood up and looked up at him, and said softly: "This is right or wrong." ”
