Xiaoyaozi came out of the gambling house and went to the prefect's yamen in person.

The governor and the prefect were suddenly arrested overnight, and the prefect's yamen suddenly became a pot of porridge.

Xiaoyaozi grabbed a servant and asked about the situation of the prefect and the governor. The officials didn't know what was going on. I only know that a man and a woman from Beijing have taken away the governor, the prefect, and the president of the salt merchants' association.

The man also took out the emperor's token and took away a group of people from the prefect's yamen. It is said that they are going to be escorted to Jingshi.

After listening to this, Xiaoyaozi talked about the appearance of Xiong Wei and Xia Yun again. The official nodded repeatedly.

Xiaoyaozi once again confirmed the idea in his heart. He looked at the official again and asked, "Is there another Lord Wang who came from Beijing to live in the prefect's yamen?" Where is he now?"

The official said tremblingly, "Lord Wang has been in the room since he was sent back. ”

"Take me to see him!" said Xiaoyaozi solemnly and eagerly.

The official hurriedly took Xiaoyaozi to Wang Dong's room.

Wang Dong was still lying on the bed with bandages wrapped around his shoulders.

"You go out first!" Xiaoyaozi said coldly as he looked at the servant.

Wang Dong saw that Xiaoyaozi asked the official to go out, and he also felt a strong murderous aura coming from Xiaoyaozi's body.

When he saw Xiaoyaozi coming, he recognized it as Xiong Wei's master at a glance, and a very terrifying expression appeared on his face, he thought that Xiaoyaozi was here to kill him. He propped himself up from the bed and held his golden whip in his hand.

People's survival instinct in times of crisis is vividly expressed in Wang Dong's body at this time.

"What are you doing here?" Wang Dong covered his chest with one hand, and his eyes stared at Xiaoyaozi.

"Don't worry! You don't have to be so nervous. I'm not here to kill you now. Although, I was trying to kill you before. But I can't kill you right now. ”

Wang Dong frowned, he couldn't understand Xiaoyaozi's words, and asked suspiciously, "Then what are you doing here?"

"I don't have time to explain that much to you right now. I just want to ask you, is the queen going to kill Xiong Wei?"

"How do you know this?" Wang Dong was even more curious when he heard him ask, and thought to himself: How could he know about such a secret thing.

"You talk a lot of, do you know that the prefect and governor, as well as the salt merchants, have all been arrested by Xiong Wei?"

"I know, but there's nothing I can do about it. Your apprentice didn't know where this musty smell came from, I didn't feel it when I fought with him, and now I'm in pain all over. ”

When Wang Dong heard Xiaoyaozi's words, he estimated that he had come to ask about the salt tax and relaxed his vigilance. The activity moved his arm and looked at Xiaoyaozi with an unhappy expression.

"Oh?" Xiaoyaozi didn't pay attention to Wang Dong's injury just now, but now seeing him like that, he couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard him say it again. sighed in his heart: Qi'er's sword qi is so powerful. It's terrifying!

"When will you be able to move?" asked Xiaoyaozi again.

"At least three or five days, at most ten days and a half moon. ”

"What, ten days and a half months? ”

"What the hell are you going to say? Say half and leave half, it's really embarrassing. ”

Xiaoyaozi looked at Wang Dong and said solemnly and calmly: "I have to do two things now, one is to go to Donglin Academy, and the other is to chase after Qi'er. It is said that they took the prefect and the governor to Jingshi. However, the direction of Donglin Academy is opposite to that of Jingshi. I had to find someone reliable to help me get there. ”

Wang Dong listened to Xiaoyaozi's words in a fog, this person is obviously his enemy, how can he meddle in his own internal affairs now. Who the hell is he? It came too suddenly, and it was better to be careful.

"Why are you telling me this, why am I a reliable person?" Wang Dong planned to test Xiaoyaozi again to see what he wanted to do.

"I don't have time to explain so much nonsense to you. It's too late to tell you any more. You can only rest for three more days. Immediately go after the bears and trap them. It is not known whether they are on a waterway or a dry road. ”

"What about after the chase?" Wang Dong continued to ask.

"After chasing......" Xiaoyaozi hesitated, they knew too many things. With Xiong Wei's temperament, he must find out all of them. It would be even worse if someone else was implicated again.

"Kill them, let them write a confession before they die. Then give their families a consolation payment. ”

"Why should I listen to you? Wang Dong asked with his mouth open.

Xiaoyaozi looked at Wang Dong and paused, and said very seriously: "Because you and I have the same purpose." We all wish the crown prince a smooth succession. ”

When Wang Dong heard this, he was even more puzzled, and he asked excitedly, "Who are you?"

"There is no need to tell you who I am. You remember to do what I told you. I'm going to Donglin Academy now. ”

After Xiaoyaozi finished speaking, he walked straight out of the door, walked a few steps and then came back to look at Wang Dong and said, "If you can't catch up." You hurried back to Beijing and told the queen all this. Let the queen figure it out. ”

"Okay! I'll do it tomorrow. Wang Dong also came to his senses when he listened.

"Your ...... hurt," Xiaoyaozi hesitated.

"It's almost healed. I was just afraid that you would attack me, so I said it on purpose. ”

Xiaoyaozi smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, this guy is really like his sister, he has a lot of eyes. "If only you could go early. ”

After Xiaoyaozi finished speaking, he turned around and went out, found a fast horse in the prefect's yamen and ran towards Donglin Academy.

The sun is shining on the ground, and Yangzhou, which has rained several times a few days ago, is exceptionally sunny today. Not only that, but the sun after the rain is poisonous and spicy.

Xiong Wei raised his head and looked at the sky, wiped the sweat beads from his forehead with his hands, and had been walking with them for most of the day.

He turned his head to look at Xia Yun and said, "Yun'er, where is the front?"

Xia Yun got up and looked at the front and said, "There is a small town in front, and after the town, you can reach the dock by walking dozens of miles to the east." Do you choose the waterway or take the dry road. ”

Xiong Wei paused for a moment and looked behind him. All three prisoners were kept in prison vans, and it was inconvenient to travel by water. "Take the dry road. It is also inconvenient for so many people to take the waterway. ”

"Take the dry road? Okay, listen to you. Xia Yun inquired about the process, and she was about to start planning where and how to kill these people.

Yangzhou to Jingshi thousands of miles, although the time is still long, but can not be negligent. Xiong Wei is now ordered to escort people back to Beijing, and if the prisoner is killed on the way, Xiong Wei will not be able to escape responsibility. If the prisoner is taken to Beijing, it will be even more difficult.

These three are not the most important people, though. When the time comes, just let the news out and let them kill whoever kills. There are three more people in the main one. That is the backbone of the Donglin Party. Now Xiong Wei wants to escort these three people back to Jingshi, so what should the other three people do?

"Let's rest for a while!" Xiong Wei shouted at the people behind him.

Xiong Wei's shout interrupted Xia Yun's train of thought. Xia Yun whispered, "Xiong Wei, let's go over there." ”

Xiong Wei nodded, he knew from Xia Yun's appearance that Xia Yun had something to tell him.

The wind whistled the weeds, and the air was mixed with the scent of earth.

"Xiong Wei, there are still three important people on the emperor's list who have not been eliminated. What do you think?" Xia Yun couldn't help but speak, she had to understand Xiong Wei's true thoughts before she could make the next decision.

Xiong Wei frowned, his head lowered, he had been thinking about this matter for a long time. At the moment, these three people didn't say anything, saying that they were wronged, and they didn't speak until Jingshi. It is estimated that they have already arranged everything in Jingshi, waiting for exoneration.

"I've thought about that too. However, there is no evidence to arrest them at the moment!"

"I do have an idea? I don't know what you think. Xia Yun stopped and looked at Xiong Wei.

"You say?"

"Let's go to Donglin Academy first, and all three of us are currently lecturing at Donglin Academy. We directly said that when the case was being tried, the prefect also told them out. ”

"This ......," Xiong hesitated, "isn't this a frame-up?"

"It's not called framing, sometimes you have to use some extraordinary means to get the results you want. If they don't do anything bad, they will never admit it if you say this. If they really do something bad, it might trick them out of doing so. ”

Xiong Wei looked at Xia Yun's indifferent eyes, and his heart "chuckled". He knew before that Xia Yun had a lot of vicious methods. I didn't expect to really see it this time, but I felt a little uncomfortable.

However, what Xia Yun said is also right. Sometimes there are things that require some extraordinary means.

Xia Yun saw Xiong Wei hesitating and added: "The most important thing is not that they have any crimes, but that the emperor wants them to die." The king's ministers died, and the ministers had to die. ”

Xiong Wei shrugged his eyebrows, took a deep breath, and sighed: "Yes, this is the main reason!"

After a pause, he continued: "But what about these prisoners, what if there is no escort to them?"

"Let's go to the next county seat and hand them over to the county magistrate, let him find someone to be responsible for escorting them back, and then we will go to Donglin Academy. ”

Xiong Wei nodded. "That's fine. However, I am curious that none of them are officials in the court, why did the emperor kill them. ”

Xia Yun knew that Xiong Wei still couldn't make up his mind, and said, "Why you want to kill is the emperor's own business." As a killer, a good killer, you should never ask your buyer why they want to kill this person. All we have to do is kill this man by all means!"

Xia Yun's words reminded Xiong Wei of Xiaoyaozi's words, once upon a time, Xiaoyaozi also said something similar to himself. He sighed again: "Yes, we don't need to know why we kill. Just know how to kill people better and faster. However, I don't know the reason, and my heart is always empty. ”

"Yun'er, every time you kill someone, what do you think in your heart?"

Xia Yun was stunned, she didn't know why Xiong Wei asked this question. She said in a slur manner: "Godfather will kill me if I ask me." Anyone who can't get along with Godfather and Concubine Zheng Guifei will be killed. That's why. ”

Xiong Wei sighed in his heart again: Yun'er killed because her godfather asked her to do this. The master killed people because he looked at the portrait and killed this person if he was not happy. So what am I human for?

The more Xiong thought about it, the more empty his heart felt.

Xia Yun looked at Xiong Wei's expression, and reminded him again: "Xiong Wei, don't forget. These people were asked by the emperor to be killed. If we don't kill us, we won't be able to pay the difference when we go back. ”

Xiong Wei hugged Xia Yun's shoulders, smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and said, "Okay, let's go to the next county seat and hand over these prisoners to the county order, and we will go to Donglin Academy." ”

"Okay!" Xia Yun thought, and had another plan in her heart. Xiong Wei is not responsible for escorting, and if these people die, it has nothing to do with Xiong Wei! Anyway, there are many people who want to kill these people. As long as Xiong Wei is transferred, these people will die.

The wind was whistling, and it ruffled the hair on Xiong's forehead. He looked at the mountains in the distance and looked in the direction of the Kyoshi.

He repeated Xia Yun's words in his heart: The emperor let him be killed.

He suddenly felt that he had found a reason to kill in his heart, and the emperor asked him to kill. Even if he can't be ruthless, the emperor will send someone else to kill.

He slowly recalled that everything he did was ordered by the emperor. Although some things were not ordered by the emperor himself, they were also conveyed by Qianlong. In this way, the emperor also asked him to kill.

He affirmed again: Indeed, these people he killed were all ordered by the emperor to kill them.

If Xia Yun killed people because of Wei Zhongxian and Zheng Guifei. Master kills people because of his own nature. Then he killed himself because of the emperor. The emperor wants to kill people, of course, for the sake of the country.

The more Xiong thought about it, the more he felt better.

He took a deep breath and said, "Let's go." It's time for us to go after so long of rest!"

After speaking, Xiong Wei walked to the front of the group.
