Xiao Qianye looked around, and walked out of the back door of his house after making sure that there was no one, but before he took three steps, he was dragged to the corner by a strong hand, and before he could see who it was, the other party had already sighed in his ear, and directly stuffed a half-empty wine jug into his arms.

He looked at it again, there were more than a dozen empty wine jars in the corners of the wall, and Marshal Si Tian squatted on the side of the wall and retched a few times, it seemed that he should have really drunk too much this time.

Yun Xiao was next to him, and she was dragged over by Si Tian just after she went out, she bent down and patted the other party's back, and persuaded: "Uncle, do you want to go into the Tianzheng Mansion and rest first?"

"No, no, I'm not drunk yet. Si Tian wiped his mouth and pressed down the nausea that surged into his throat, shook off her hand, held on to the wall and tried to stand up straight, his face was so pale that there was no blood, his lips were slightly bruised, and the wine stains were stained all over his clothes, he smiled bitterly, stepped forward and put his hands on Xiao Qianye's shoulders, a little hard, his voice trembled and was on the verge of despair, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't expect her to die, it's just a token, I really didn't expect to kill her......"

He let go of his hand and looked up at the sky, as if his soul had been drained, and his eyes became extremely confused, which also made Yun Xiao's heart tighten, and he wrung his hands and lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

Si Tian glanced at the woman beside him, unceremoniously raised his hand and pinched her cheek, but comforted: "Why are you sad, it has nothing to do with you, don't take everything on yourself." ”

Yun Xiao opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

Si Tian shook his head and muttered: "Siniang and I are actually not friends, we are a friend of wine and meat, we often bump into each other in Los Angeles, and she has invited me to drink a few times, I always knew that she was doing something unseemly, but I don't care...... Haha, hahaha, isn't it funny, anyway, I'm unofficial and light, I live a free life, and I don't bother to care what others are doing, she wants to invite me to drink and chat a few words, and if she doesn't want to, pull it down, it's always been like this. ”

"Your fourth aunt, she has such a bad temper. Si Tian groaned for a while, and the hand on his shoulder couldn't help but exert himself, and let out a low laugh, "She not only loves to drink, but also dragged me to gamble a few handfuls when she was finished, and her luck was very poor, she lost a lot every time, and then she relied on her every time, and asked me to help her pay off her gambling debts, she is a famous female overlord in Los Angeles, and anyone who sees it can't wait to take a detour, what an unlikable woman." ”

"Not only does she drink and gamble, but she also likes to go to prostitution! Si Tian sighed silently, his eyes were clearly extinguished, as if he remembered something, and said strangely, "But she likes to buy some gadgets from all over the world, and often takes them out to show off to me, I asked her if she wanted to return the treasure and refused to give it, saying that it was to give it to someone......"

Halfway through the words, Si Tian paused for a moment, feeling that his heart was suddenly heavy, and his heart was a little astringent.

After being silent for a long time, he raised his eyelids and looked at Xiao Qianye, and found that the other party just didn't change his face, like a serious listener, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Do you say she has a sweetheart?" After all, a woman's family, when she is old, is she not married, so she runs around aimlessly every day with a Wahuang sword, is it that the person she likes doesn't like her, so that woman makes herself look like this decadent?"

Xiao Qianye's face was gloomy, thinking of a person.

Si Tian's drunken head was already a little delirious, and his speech began to be illogical, and he said: "When she showed off those things to me, her eyes were really full of anticipation, don't you say it's strange, she is a woman who is looking for fun everywhere, does she really have a heart?"

He looked at Yun Xiao inadvertently, grinned, grabbed her hand and muttered: "I don't know you women very well, tell me, when women really like someone, will they be like Siniang, who is still thinking about preparing gifts all day long when they are old?"

"Hmm. Yun Xiao just nodded and let out a long sigh, with complicated emotions in her eyes.

The person Feng Siniang likes in her heart is undoubtedly the male pet Ah Zheng of the Night Moon Pavilion, who would have thought that a woman with such a bad reputation as her would really be sincere to a male pet in the land of Fengyue?

And what did you get in the end with such sincere dedication?

Si Tian looked at Yun Xiao's reaction, in fact, he could guess most of it in his heart, but he didn't say it directly, but changed the topic in a sinking tone: " The village in the East Ming is what I care about the most, because I like the wine brewed there, and I drink a sip and the body is warm all night, as if I am soaking in a hot spring, which is very comfortable, after the village was slaughtered, the half of the sandalwood order was found in the cellar, and the cellar has their formation that ordinary people can't approach, but I know the patriarch, and the patriarch knows that I like the wine they brew, so he privately taught me how to go in. ”

At this point, Si Tian's eyes suddenly brightened, and he kicked the wine jar on the ground with a heavy kick, and his tone finally calmed down: "When I found the half of the sandalwood order in the cellar, I knew that this matter had nothing to do with Siniang, just laugh at me, I actually investigated this matter for the sake of my favorite wine, I didn't care about what Siniang was doing for so many years, but this time I ......"

He lowered his head and laughed self-deprecatingly, shaking his head in disbelief: "But this time I want to join in the fun, since it is such an important thing, why didn't she pick it up at that time? Even if there is a formation to obstruct it, she can do it if she really wants to pick it up, right?"

Si Tian's thinking gradually became clearer, and his tone became fierce, word by word: "That means that if half of that thing is lost, it can be repaired, but if the entire sandalwood order is lost, something may happen, right?"

Xiao Qianye nodded, turned over his hand and took out the sandalwood order, looking at the thing in his hand, there was a strange gaze circulating: "Siniang once told me that there are three sandalwood orders in the dark department of the forbidden army, and if they are combined with the keys in the hands of the wardens of the prisons in various places, they can open the experimental base hidden in the depths." ”

"What?" Si Tian was shocked, and subconsciously snatched the sandalwood order in his hand, his eyes couldn't stop trembling, "This thing...... This thing is so important, no wonder Siniang was assassinated, is it ......?"

"Siniang was not killed because she lost the sandalwood order, someone deliberately used her death to deal with Gao Chengchuan. Xiao Qianye reminded in a cold voice, "No matter how important things are, they can be abandoned as long as Gao Chengchuan gives an order, why kill Siniang for this reason and make people criticized?"

Si Tian bit his lip and couldn't speak for a moment, but he already understood what the other party meant in his heart, and endured the shock and asked the biggest doubt in his heart: "It's not Gao Chengchuan's order, then you...... Why did you kill him?What is the matter with Master Feng?" Latest

Without waiting for Xiao Qianye to reply, Si Tian's face turned pale in an instant, as if he had exhausted all his strength, took a heavy breath and leaned against the wall, and held his forehead: "Oh, I understand, that's the case, killing Feng Siniang was originally to blame Gao Chengchuan and cause hatred between you, but Siniang's death can't completely anger you, so Master Feng is also involved, can I understand that someone wants to borrow your hand to get rid of Gao Chengchuan?"

"So the marshal doesn't have to blame himself, Siniang's death has nothing to do with you. Xiao Qianye comforted her, but Si Tian was depressed, and his shoulders felt very heavy, "But it's really embarrassing for you, and you are charged with venting your anger and personal vendetta." ”

Xiao Qianye shrugged, stuffed the half-pot of wine jar in his arms back into his hand, and grinned.

Si Tian reluctantly shook the wine jug, and sighed earnestly: "Drinking and making a mistake, if you hadn't been drunk by me and slept groggily for an afternoon, maybe there would be a turnaround in this matter, hey." ”

"Then quit. Xiao Qianye shook his head disappreciatively, Si Tian half-squatted on the ground, and most of the wine woke up, muttering, "Quit it? That's not good, they all say that wine can eliminate sorrows, you quit this thing, what will you use to eliminate sorrows in the future?"

After that, his eyes flashed, as if he had made some kind of firm determination, wiped his mouth, and said seriously: "I want to ask you one last thing, who killed Siniang?

Xiao Qianye hesitated for a moment and blurted out: "Marshal, it's better not to interfere, that person...... Most of them have taken refuge in others. ”

"Take refuge?" Si Tian repeated these two words, the corners of his mouth became sharper and sharper, he could assassinate Feng Siniang quietly, and then blame Gao Chengchuan, and he could also force Xiao Qianye to do it himself, he could only think of one person with this status.

Thinking of this, Si Tianyun smiled lightly: "He can betray a high-ranking and powerful minister like Gao Chengchuan, who else is worth taking refuge into?" Could it be ...... Is it to take refuge in the Holy One today?"

The two tacitly exchanged glances, and Si Tian bowed slightly, feeling a little headache.

He only agreed that Xiao Yibai would stay in the imperial capital to protect someone, but in a blink of an eye, he felt that person didn't need his protection at all.

The Governor's Mansion is tightly guarded, and it is guarded by His Majesty Mingxi's cronies personally, from Xiao Qianye's entry into the Governor's Mansion to the news of Gao Chengchuan's murder, no one knows about it for such a long time!

Si Tian's expression was complicated, and after linking everything together, he reluctantly came to the final conclusion in his heart - this was clearly deliberately open to defense, it was Mingxi, who wanted Gao Chengchuan to die.

"Marshal, I have something to ask for. Xiao Qianye abruptly interrupted the other party's thoughts, and there was a solemn look between his eyebrows, "I hope you can stay in the Imperial Capital City for the time being......"

"Oh?" Si Tian frowned slightly, for some reason his heart jumped, he didn't expect this person to suddenly say exactly the same thing as his brother, and couldn't help but wait patiently for him to continue.

Xiao Qianye took a deep breath, stepped forward, bowed deeply to the former marshal of the military pavilion, and pleaded word by word: "I hope you can take care of my eldest brother Xiao Yibai for the time being." ”

Si Tian's eyes changed, knowing that a person like him must be thoughtful before he speaks to himself, and such a request must hide a bottomless crisis.

"Heh......" The two looked at each other seriously, Si Tian was the first to laugh, the gloom of his brows was swept away, and he threw the half pot of wine in his hand back to him with a smile, "You drink the rest of the wine, I will promise you." ”

"It's a deal. Xiao Qianye took the wine, didn't think about raising it and drank it all, and in an instant the liquor entered his throat, his face quickly turned red, and in an instant it turned blue and white, and fine sweat appeared on his cheeks.

"Hey, this is also a strong wine, don't sleep to death after a while......" Si Tian looked at the other party with satisfaction, only to see Xiao Qianye holding on to the wall, and soon the wine was a little unsteady on his feet, but he still turned the wine jug upside down with a calm demeanor, and the light in his eyes was bright and sharp, "There is not a drop left, and the marshal must also speak and count." ”

Si Tian's eyebrows tightened, his fist tapped on his shoulder, and promised in a low voice: "I have been to the Central Plains, and the people of the Central Plains always like to say a sentence, called 'A word is difficult to chase', I promised you, I will take a good look at him, you can rest assured to do your own thing." ”

Xiao Qianye looked at the marshal dumbly, and he didn't know what kind of emotion he was in his heart - the other party seemed to have noticed something, but finally chose to be silent.

The next moment, Si Tian scratched his head, strode out, and chattered endlessly: "Let's go, let's take a shower and change clothes first, and Meimei will sleep first." ”

After his back disappeared, Xiao Qianye covered his mouth, and there was a feeling of nausea in his throat.

"Are you okay?" Yun Xiao helped him nervously, "Do you want to go home and rest first?"

"No, follow me. Xiao Qianye reluctantly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled mysteriously.
