Even though he said many reasons and excuses for refusing in advance, when he really answered, Ding Yi still said the word willing.

Li Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, the palm clenched in his sleeve was easily opened, and the two knew each other that the reason why Ding Yi chose this way had nothing to do with anything.

Neither the friendship of the Northland nor anything else.

He was loyal to the Tang Emperor, but even more loyal to the Tang State.

Emperor Tang retreated, and the entire Tang Dynasty did not retreat at the slightest point in Li Xianyi's hands, and was even able to control the situation under the persecution of the queen and the princess, this is the ability.

No one wants Tang Guo to be in chaos, so Li Xiu will gamble his life to do a lot of things.

The same goes for Ding Yi.

Li Xianyi is good enough, and he does it well enough, so it is best for him to continue to be the prisoner, Li Wenxuan may not be bad, but there is no need.

At some point, order is the best way to do it.

"Who are you going to kill?"

Since a consensus has been reached, there is no need to hide it, Ding Yi picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea, and stretched out his hand to signal Li Xiu to sit down beside him.

Since he was clearly waiting for him tonight, it was not surprising that he could guess this step.

Li Xiu didn't rush to speak, there was still a period of time before dawn, and tonight was destined to be a sleepless night, so naturally we had to talk a little more.

So he asked rhetorically, "Who does Master Ding think I will kill?"

Ding Yi glanced at him, and snorted twice disdainfully, the hairy boy who has not dried up also wants to test the old man?

"According to the old man, Jiang Manquan should be killed. ”

Li Xiu picked up the teapot and filled it with a cup, and praised: "He is worthy of being an old man, and his eyes are vicious." ”

It is easy to kill Jiang Manquan, but the difficult thing is how to kill it in a righteous and bright way.

"Boy, I have a very close relationship with your father, so I also love you and Wu, forget it, these clichés are not mentioned for the time being, then Jiang Manquan is not easy to kill, not only to die, but also to block other people's mouths, so that Qi Qin and the queen can't interfere if they want to, and everyone thinks that he deserves to die, only in this way can he never suffer in the future, and leave no handle." ”

Ding Yi took the teacup and took a sip, then said: "Before you came, I thought of several ways, but none of them could be perfect, since you dare to do it, you must be sure, the old man is very curious." ”

Jiang Manquan is now a person in the queen's lineage, and if he wants to kill him, he will definitely be blocked, especially Qi Qin's prestige among the hundred officials is second to none, if he gets in the way, maybe people will not only not be able to kill, but will be bitten back.

So the plan has to be perfect, at least absolute.

"Let me sell it, and it will be clear tomorrow at noon. ”

Li Xiu looked out the window and didn't answer directly.

"Fault!"

Ding Yi slammed the teacup on the table and snorted coldly, but he didn't continue to ask.

......

......

Tonight is like a transition, the sky is not yet dawn, but countless people are completely sleepless tossing and turning in their respective homes.

Among them, Jiang Manquan is the worst.

Ever since he got Li Xiu in the Taiwei Mansion and walked around Xuanhua Street, his heart has become very uneasy, and he always feels that something will happen, but the outside world is very calm, and the news from the countless spies released is the same.

Nothing happened.

Even the news brought by the spies of the Taiwei Mansion was the same.

"Wait and see, don't worry. ”

Looking at the eight words written on the white paper, Jiang Manquan's body that had been walking back and forth in the room without stopping finally relaxed, and he sat on the chair, and even his back seemed to be wet in a trance.

It was the word of the captain, so he was relieved.

After all, everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, and it is not good for each other to die anyone, not to mention that he is still in charge of such a big gap in the household department.

He leaned back in his chair and looked out the window, with a sneer on his face: "Even if you Li Xiu, what can you do? It's still far from killing a first-class master, not to mention that there are still queens and eunuchs standing behind me now, I really want to see how you plan to deal with me this time?"

The uneasiness in his heart gradually dissipated, Jiang Manquan sat on the chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, quietly waiting for the dawn to come.

The next day, the sky was late in the morning, and even though the streets were already crowded with pedestrians, the sky was gray and gray.

The top of the head was gray and a little depressed, and many children gathered together to look up at the sky, smiling on their faces and jumping around happily.

The first snow of the winter is coming.

Just like the leaves of late autumn, the first snow of winter is also beautiful and memorable.

The cloudy day didn't last long, and flakes of snow fell from the sky and landed on the ground.

The first snow is usually not too violent, and the delicate and narrow snowflakes slowly sway and fall from the heights, but in an hour, the entire Chang'an City is spread into a snow-white patch.

The weather was slightly cool, with a chill, and the flint in the house burned vigorously, and the silent flames went straight up.

There was a knock outside the courtyard door, Jiang Manquan's brows furrowed slightly, and he immediately opened his eyes.

The housekeeper who had been guarding the door hurriedly explained: "Master, the snow is thick in front of the door, and the guards went to fetch ski equipment, but they haven't come back yet, do you want to wait?"

Jiang Manquan took a deep breath and said lightly: "No need, go and invite people in." ”

"Yes, sir!"

The butler answered and walked out, and in a moment the door opened.

Jiang Manquan's eyes were cold, and he thought that he had really come.

There was a slight sound of footsteps coming from the courtyard, the sound was very soft and a little peculiar, and he knew that it was the sound of stepping on the snow.

His face was a little solemn, because he heard the sound of armor crashing in the footsteps, it was bright yellow armor.

The Chang'an pro-army and the prince's six rates are unique to the Ming and yellow armor.

The housekeeper of the Jiang Mansion stopped in front of the door, stretched out his hand to open the door and made a gesture, and said, "General, please come in, my master is waiting in the house." ”

The man walked into the house, and the snowflakes on his body evaporated the moment he stepped into the house, leaving no trace.

The door behind him was closed, and the butler had retreated.

In Jiangfu, he can do today's position, he knows very well what he should know and what he can't.

The man's footsteps did not stop, and walked straight towards Jiang Manquan, and then sat down in the lower seat.

Jiang Manquan squinted his eyes and looked at the person in front of him in surprise, and his heart gradually became puzzled, and he was a little unsure of what Li Xiu was going to do.

"General Ying is here, what's the matter?"

His heart raised his guard, but he let down his vigilance.

Ying Zi'an, as the prince's closest confidant, knows this, since he came, it represents the prince's meaning, it is the meaning of the official, but why did the prince send the dignified Zuo Wei to lead the general?

So he was on the lookout.

But since it is an official matter, it is much easier to deal with, so I let down my vigilance.

Ying Zi'an looked up at Jiang Manquan and said with a smile: "The last general wants to invite the adults to have a drink, I don't know what the adults think?"
