MTL - Kunning-Chapter 117 learned that
It was almost midnight.
There is a vast expanse in the mountains, and people from the Tianjiao can be seen outside the dilapidated temple. One is to guard against sneak attacks, and the other is to have some hope for the group of people who went to the east gate before. Maybe they will come back in a while .
But inside the temple, there is only one fire.
Zhang Zhe's eyes met Meng Yang's.
Just by the look on his face, he knew what the other party had misunderstood.
But he didn't explain, just walked to the fire, sat a little beside Meng Yang, picked up a branch next to him, folded it gently, and threw it into the fire. The reddish light of the fire shone on his cheeks, but he seemed to be a bit dazed despite the silence.
At this moment, Meng Yang's hair that covered his face was lifted a lot, revealing most of his face, but there was no viciousness, but a kind of calmness like meditation, it didn't look like he could kill more than fifty people in his family mouth people.
But how many of the truly vicious people in the world clearly have the face of a villain?
There was a little smile on his lips.
His eyes swept over the sleeping people around him, and he was not afraid of being overheard by others, and said in a hoarse voice like a knife grinding his throat: "I heard that when I was not in prison two years ago, Gu Chunfang from Henan Province There is a capable official under his command, who has insight into the details and has the ability to solve cases. Mr. Zhang has a reputation of integrity, and Meng has been admired for a long time. It's just that I didn't expect to meet him in this kind of place. Even people like you are incompatible with Tianjiao Complicity, really..."
He didn't say anything later, but he gave a "tsk", which meant it was self-evident.
Meng Yang held a slightly thicker branch in his hand, waved gently in the fire, and sparks flew up in the heat.
People sat on the side, and the cold air was also dissipated a lot.
Zhang Zhe's eyes fell on the branch in Meng Yang's hand, he heard the other person's words, and he didn't speak for a long time.
It wasn't until I saw that the branch was licked up and burned by the fire after I poked the fire, that I calmly said: "You are from Changping, your family is well-off, and you married a beautiful wife when you were twenty years old. I don't think it's been two years, my beautiful wife So you hanged yourself at home and died twice. Sadly, you went up to the mountain to become a monk and became a monk with the name of "Zhan Chen". Unexpectedly, a few years later, I accidentally heard that the wife was murdered by the family. One was to take her wealth, and the other was to marry the daughter of a high official for you. In a fit of rage, you returned home with the monk's robe still on, carrying the saber used by monks in the temple. In order to prevent everyone from escaping, you first set a fire on the back door, then tied the door, and then forced you in. . Kill any one you see, including your father, brother, and nephew. The elders are sixty-two, and the younger ones are only thirteen. Killed in the middle of the night, only a dog you raised many years ago is still alive. "
"Crack", the branch in Meng Yang's hand suddenly snapped.
The broken piece fell into the fire and burned quickly.
Finally, there was a bit of blood in his eyes, but he smiled with the corners of his lips: "As expected of Mr. Zhang, I know that."
Zhang Zhe didn't think it was a big deal when he talked about it. He had dealt with too many tragedies, even if he had a heart of compassion, he would not feel attached to them. He just said: "You have been imprisoned for a long time. , It was supposed to be executed after the fall, and the dossier happened to pass through the Ministry of Punishment. I work in the Ministry of Punishment, so I have naturally read your dossier."
In other words, Zhang Zhe knew Meng Yang better than anyone else.
This is something Meng Yang never thought of.
He suddenly felt an indescribable danger, and felt a bit of fear that he had never had before, Zhang Zhe, the head of the Cleaning Department of the Ministry of Punishment, who looked ordinary in front of him.
Zhang Zhe seemed to be unaware of this kind of fear, and the fire in the temple was reflected in his dull and cold eyes, and he said as if it were ordinary: "You killed more than fifty members of your family. The crime is true, no matter what happened It's all about love and law that cannot be forgiven. When the file was handed over to the Ministry of Punishment, it drew a picture of you beheaded in autumn. Unexpectedly, someone suppressed it, saying that there are still doubts and discretion in the matter of your sending your wife to hang yourself , I will only send you to prison, but will not be released for the time being. Therefore, the matter has been delayed until now, and it is still pending."
For a person like Meng Yang, ten thousand deaths cannot cover his crime.
Although he was in a dangerous situation, Zhang Zhe didn't hide his love and hatred for him, and finally turned his eyes to look at the other party, and said, "I really want to know who is standing behind you, who has such a great ability?" Can suppress things like Qiu Jue."
Meng Yang was still holding a branch in his hand. Although his peaceful face was a bit dirty, it looked like a Buddha sitting high in a temple reflected by the warm red fire light. , the great monk who shaves me was at the time the dharma name round machine, and he has been studying Buddhism for four or five years, Mr. Zhang is so curious, why don't you guess it?"
White Horse Temple, a circular machine monk.
Isn't that the current national teacher who is personally appointed by the emperor Shen Lang?
The shaving thing is probably true.
But Zhang Zhe stopped talking, because things were not as simple as they appeared on the surface. If Monk Yuanji did this, it would be too revealing, and all civil and military officials in the court would be watching.
After entering the winter, the dawn will be late.
But Xie Wei didn't sleep very well at night, and he was used to getting up early. When he opened his eyes and got up with his clothes on, it was still pitch black outside. He got a bit cold after going out in the snowy night yesterday, and he coughed a little.
Jianshu heard him get up outside, so he asked someone to come in to serve him.
Hearing him coughing, Jian Shu said: "The medicine that Doctor Liu prescribed to you earlier is quite effective, let someone decoct it for you."
Xie Wei frowned lightly and said, "No need."
After washing up a bit, he walked to the desk and flipped through the things that were piled up on the desk, but these were either official documents from the court or secret reports from the Heavenly Church, and all of them were annoying at first glance.
Jian Shuben was ready to report to Tianjiao, but when he looked up and saw Xie Wei sitting in front of the case for a long time, he couldn't help wondering, and said: "The gang who robbed the prison just left, and left a mark at the gate of the city. , It looks like they are heading towards Yanzhuang. The head teacher personally ordered another group of people to go to their temporary foothold to meet them, but they don't know exactly who went there. The subordinates are afraid to startle the snake without asking more questions. Ask?"
Xie Wei ignored him, suddenly asked: "Is there nothing else?"
Jianshu was stunned.
Xie Wei coughed twice again, the light of the lamp shone on his pale face, there was a lingering sickness between the outlines of his eyebrows and eyes, he didn't want to do anything serious, he just pushed the copybook in front of him, Get up and go back to the Qinqin hall in front, walking side by side, saying: "It's the first month after the festival, and it's only a few days away. One thing, you ask someone to find out what the little girls in Beijing like today, A list of proposed birthday gifts is coming up, I'll think about it."
The little girl loves it?
Birthday gift?
Does anyone have a birthday in the first month?
Jian Shu searched in his mind, but he couldn't remember who's birthday was in the first month, but when he thought about the word "little girl" used in Xie Wei's words, he suddenly understood, and he was speechless secretly.
He was not like Lu Xian who dared to bluff in front of Xie Wei, he only dared to bluff in his own heart for a while, but he didn't show it at all on his face, as if he had taken on a heavy responsibility, he said solemnly: "Yes. "
It was still dark in the Qin hall.
Xie Wei walked in and lit the lamp.
The beech boards on the platform in front of the window for making the violin have been made according to the shape of the violin, but they haven't been spliced and painted yet. He put the lamp on the window sill, and rolled up his sleeves to get a carving knife, but when he was about to carve the details, his fingers stopped.
Suddenly it occurred to me—
Although the little girl's qin is an ancient qin, but the old qin is the old sound, no matter how well it is kept, there may be something unsatisfactory. Since ancient times, "the new is not as good as the old" is just a fallacy. It might be a good idea to cut a new piano for a birthday gift, but unfortunately, I am too busy recently, and I am slow in cutting the piano. I am afraid that her birthday will be over before the piano is finished.
Just such a thought crossed my mind.
After a pause, Xie Wei buried his head and went to play the piano.
Looking at Jianshu, he always felt that he seemed to be pretending to be serious, but when did the husband not pretend to be serious? Although the incident in the Yongyi Hou's Mansion was unexpected, it could even be regarded as a clever move, just waiting for the day when it will come in handy. But in the end, he left that mansion and this capital city. The gentleman didn't say it on the face, but secretly he was probably accumulating too much unhappiness.
He didn't dare to ask what to do with the things piled up on the desk.
I had no choice but to wait at the door, not daring to disturb him.
At this early hour, most people hadn't gotten up yet.
It was very quiet all around.
So once there are footsteps, it will become very obvious.
Not long after Jianshu stood up, he heard such footsteps coming from the front yard.
is a servant.
When he came to the Qinqin hall, he whispered: "There is someone outside the door asking for an interview, saying that he has something important to report, please spare your time, the other party claims to be Zhou Yinzhi, a thousand households of Jinyiwei."
Zhou Yinzhi?
I have heard of this man Jianshu, but he didn't leave a good impression.
When he heard it, he frowned: "Did you say what happened?"
The servant said: "No."
Jianshu guessed that Xie Wei was missing, but they had never met this person before, and they didn't dare to refuse directly like others, so they came in again to ask Xie Wei.
Xie Wei really said: "No see."
Officials from the DPRK came to visit him for just a few reasons, and it became tiresome after a long time. If he didn't have something to plan, he always preferred to be alone and didn't like to take care of other people's affairs.
Let alone today.
As soon as Jianshu heard it, he wanted to go out and send Zhou Yinzhi away.
Just as he reached the door, the carving knife in Xie Wei's hand stopped.
He suddenly said: "Call someone in."
Jianshu couldn't understand why he changed his mind again, he was taken aback for a moment before he realized, and ordered someone to lead Zhou Yinzhi inside.
After midnight, Zhou Yinzhi was still wearing the same clothes from last night, and the collar and corners of the flying fish suit were stained with sweat and mist.
Only then came in from outside, Xie Wei saw that he didn't seem to sleep last night.
Otherwise, there is no need for Jinyiwei Qianhu to go to court early, and there is no need to dress like this early in the morning.
He only asked: "Xie Xiang has nothing to do with Jin Yiwei. Zhou Qianhu came to look for him before dawn. I wonder if there is something urgent?"
It was indeed Zhou Yinzhi's first visit to Xie's mansion.
But what happened last night was far beyond his current ability to deal with it. Seeing that Jiang Xuening's whereabouts had not yet been found, he knew that he had to inform others. But should I tell Jiang Boyou first? Zhou Yinzhi really didn't dare. Once the matter is exposed, one is to secretly find a relationship and let someone into the prison to visit Yongyi Hou's mansion, and the other is that the whereabouts of the official ladies are unknown, and he can't afford to go around with any reputation, and it may not be able to solve the problem.
After sitting in that prison cell for half an hour, he became ruthless and simply worshiped Xie's mansion.
Without him, just gamble!
Xie Wei is Jiang Xuening's husband in Fengchen Palace, the girl in her boudoir is young but knows a lot of things in the court, even though he didn't understand Jiang Xuening's intentions in the matter of redeeming the letter from Tianjiao last time, But she could vaguely feel that she had a close relationship with the prince's young teacher Xie Wei.
Anyway, it was one of the "three orphans" of the dynasty.
If Xie Wei is willing to make a move, it will be safer than trying to find a way by himself.
Zhou Yinzhi's brows were dignified like a knife carving, and even a little bit awe-inspiring, bowed to Xie Wei and closed his eyes at the same time, saying: "The Tianjiao chaos party robbed the prison, and the second girl Jiang was in heaven at that time. In prison, his whereabouts are unknown now."
"Crack!"
There was an ear-piercing sound in the silent qin hall. It was the carving knife in his hand that cut a thick mark on the piano board, and sank deeply into the wood board. bleeding.
This piano can't be done.
Xie Wei suddenly had such an idea in his mind, but his gaze stayed on the deep mark for a moment, then he turned his head slowly, stared at Zhou Yinzhi, as if he didn't hear clearly, and asked softly: "Who did you just talk about?"
Also early in the morning.
Everyone resting in the ruined temple also woke up one after another.
The fire in the fire was also extinguished, leaving only a little red embers.
The whitish mist covered the surrounding mountains, turning the distant mountains and near shadows into black, white and gray. However, the sound of horseshoes could be heard in the thick mist.
Those who were watching outside the temple had been waiting for a long time.
Hearing the sound of horseshoes, he said, "Here we come!"
Everyone cheered up when they heard it.
Jiang Xuening had a good night's sleep. Not long after she woke up, she opened her eyes and sat up when she felt a coat slip off her body. Only then did she realize that Zhang Zhe was no longer in the room. The coat she was wearing was clearly the coat he wore yesterday. robe.
There was a little bit of cool air on the robe.
She was dazed for a moment, and gently stroked the fine stitches on the sleeves of the collar of the robe, only to feel her heart throbbing, sore and astringent. In my new life, I am very happy to see him well, but God treats her too kindly, and even allows me to have a chance to share troubles with him...
Jiang Xuening suddenly smiled, although she was sore from sleep, she still got out of bed neatly, folded the clothes twice, and walked out of the room.
But at this moment, everyone was standing outside the ruined temple.
When she glanced over, Zhang Zhe was still standing inside the threshold, but he was also looking outside. Meng Yang, who seemed to have caused a shock yesterday, was still sitting in the corner, even in the same posture, and he didn't know whether he hadn't moved all night or moved and sat back.
Anyway, Jiang Xuening didn't care.
She walked straight past this man and came to Zhang Zhe's side: "Master Zhang, clothes."
It seems that the people from the Tianjiao side have arrived.
Zhang Zhe was thinking about who it would be, when he heard the voice and turned around, he saw that the girl who had just woken up was standing beside him, probably because the bed was uncomfortable last night, her sleeping position was not very good, and there was a scar on the left side of her face. Reddish sleep marks, like a pillow or a red mark on his collar.
He hesitated before taking the robe.
It's just that the robe was smeared with the fragrance of the girl's body. He held it in his hand, but he didn't put it on himself.
In the thick fog outside the temple, the visitor finally appeared.
It was actually a team of capable people.
There were more than 20 riders in a group, and the two riders took the lead, and they stopped in front of the temple at a fast speed.
Huang Qian went up to greet him immediately: "Master Zuo Xiang, you must not be a young master, but I have waited for you."
The first two riders were one old and one young.
The old one, with white hair and chicken skin, was dressed as a quack doctor, and his name was Feng Mingyu. He was sent by the head of Jinling to the Tongzhou sub-rudder to take charge of the affairs of the sub-rudder. Prime Minister Zuo, "Uncle" is a common name in the Jianghu, which shows the high status of this person.
The younger one has a handsome face, outstanding facial features, is dressed in brocade, wears a sword on his waist, and has the attitude of a romantic knight. A pair of peach blossom eyes are soul-stirring, and the brilliance flowing in the corner of the single eye alone makes the girls blush and heartbeat when they see it.
When others saw him, they couldn't help but secretly say, "What a good-looking talent".
Jiang Xuening's complexion suddenly changed when he saw it, and a feeling of chill suddenly rushed up from the bottom of his feet to the back of his head, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitched slightly: "Oops, why is it him!"
The missing one is none other than the Xiao Dingfei she knew in her last life!
Feng Mingyu's position is higher, and his bones are already old. How can he resist the strong horse's bumps? The old bone is still in this dangerous situation. How about it, Mr. Gongyi?"
Only then did he have time to glance around.
However, from this look, it was clear that something was wrong. Apart from the original members of the Tianjiao, many people were still wearing dirty prison clothes.
Huang Qian knew that things were tricky, so he rushed forward and whispered to Feng Mingyu what happened last night.
Xiao Dingfei also got off his horse and stood beside him listening naturally.
Standing beside Zhang Zhe, Jiang Xuening clearly saw that Huang Qian looked towards Zhang Zhe several times when he was speaking, her heart jumped wildly: She knew in her last life that Xiao Dingfei was inextricably linked to Tianjiao Contact, it's unbelievable that she will see it with her own eyes in this life! This person will "go back" to the Xiao family in the future, and his position is so important, so does he know who the real "Dujun Mountain native" is!
After Feng Mingyu finished listening, his gray eyebrows frowned, and he subconsciously looked at Zhang Zhe behind the crowd.
Xiao Dingfei also heard clearly.
but…
Du Junshan people?
His slanting long eyebrows raised lightly, he pressed the long sword at his waist casually, took two steps under his feet, and stood in front of the temple, looking up and down Zhang Zhe, with a cynical and playful smile on his lips , said: "Are you the 'Dujun Mountain man' in our teaching?"
Zhang Zhe frowned when he heard Huang Qian calling "Young Master Dingfei", and then looked at the figure coming out of the thick fog. His words, deeds, and actions were all the same as that later in his memory in his last life. Returning to Xiao's Dingfei Shizi, his eyelids twitched slightly.
How could this person appear in Tianjiao?
Frowning lightly, he wanted to say something, but at this moment Jiang Xuening who was standing beside him grabbed his sleeve without warning and pulled it.
He subconsciously took back what he was about to say.
This movement is not considered big, but it is not considered small when the surroundings are solemn.
Xiao Dingfei stood nearby and noticed it easily.
He couldn't help but glanced to the side, unexpectedly, he didn't know if he didn't look, and saw the "boy" standing next to him, although his face was dirty, his facial features were extremely beautiful, and the short stretched out fingertips were white Yes, the nail powder is see through, and the snowy skin inside the unpressed collar can be broken by blowing, so that people can imagine a bit of ecstasy after tasting it carefully.
woman?
Xiao Dingfei is not a serious person, he put all important matters behind his head when he saw it, a little interest appeared in his beautiful peach eyes, and his eyes fell on Jiang Xuening without turning away: "I didn't expect such a terrible thing!" When you are young, you can still bring a woman. I don’t know what the girl is called?”
Yesterday, someone saw that something was wrong with the person next to Zhang Zhe, either a girl or a boy.
But it's all old Jianghu, and no one is going to break it.
Who would have expected that the "Mr. Dingfei", who had no background in Tianjiao, would directly tell the truth, asserting that the other party was a woman, and even strike up a conversation and ask Fang's name? !
Jiang Xuening suddenly thought: This bad embryo should be sent back to the Xiao family immediately, so that the family will know what "retribution" is!
