Sitting in the carriage, Xi Duanhong and Qian Shengxue couldn't get over the shock of what Zhang Wanjin just said for a long time.
"Why is this man so rich?"
Qian Shengxue's expression didn't change much, but she felt a little proud, "Calm down Xi'er, we Dongli people are all very rich."
After saying this, Xi Duanhong felt bad all over, but that was not the point. "He is also from Dongli?"
Qian Shengxue picked up a piece of pastry and put it in her mouth, "Of course, you can still hear the accent no matter how hard you hide it, and Jia Ping just told me."
"Speaking of how you and Jia Ping reached cooperation when I was away, did he make things difficult for you?"
Qian Shengxue looked a little proud of this, "You said, who dares to embarrass a princess, right? Okay, okay, don't worry."
Since Xue'er has already said this, he naturally won't say anything more, but he just wants to tell her about the letter.
As soon as they arrived at the house, Xu Zhi stepped forward and said with cupped hands: "Miss, Mr. Jian invites you to come over. I heard that there is a letter from Beijing."
"Okay, I'll go over right away," he said, looking at Qian Shengxue, "Xue'er, go back first. I'll find you when I'm done."
"good."
Xi Duanhong followed Xu Zhi to the back courtyard. Jian Xingshang frowned and didn't know what he was thinking about.
"Ah Sui, what happened?"
"You're here, come, take a look at this letter," Jian Xingshang said, pushing the letter in front of Xi Duanhong, "This letter is for Gu Ziang, and my people intercepted it. This is Xu Lingxiang's private seal. , it seems that the secret collusion between her and the Gu family is true."
"This letter alone can't explain anything, and the thing she wants to investigate was done by a descendant of her Xu family. So, I think there may be a gap between them."
"If we want to overthrow her just based on this letter, it is simply impossible. We have to break her arm first." Xi Duanhong looked to the south with a smile, "Since she can't wait any longer, then we will kill her Bring it back to her, now everything is under your control, but I have to take the first step."
How could Jian Xingshang not understand, "All the formalities and evidence will be delivered to you within three days, but this will make it difficult for you to escape in the future."
"It's not important, but I have to trouble you to stay here a little longer and arrange for someone to replace me. I can't let them know that I left Jiangnan."
"rest assured."
Xi Duanhong leaned close to Jian Xingshang and whispered something in his ear.
——Three days later
At night, a carriage passed by outside the city and headed towards Kyoto. There was a woman sitting in the carriage. She was dressed in blue and had a high ponytail, looking like a chivalrous woman. She had a sword in her hand, and the woman sitting in the carriage was Opposite is Gu Ziang, who was kidnapped and escorted back to Beijing.
The coachman was disguised by Xu Zhi, "Miss, sit tight! Drive!"
"Xi Duanhong, you will pay the price for what you have done!"
Xi Duanhong was too lazy to pay attention to this person. She hadn't used a sword for a long time. She just hoped that no one would block her way along the way.
It's a pity that she just thought that, and the carriage suddenly shuddered forward and stopped.
Gu Ziang was shaken and slipped from his seat, "What happened!"
"Miss, there is a sneak attack!" Before Xu Zhi could finish his words, an arrow passed through the carriage and almost injured Gu Ziang.
"Ah ah ah ah ah, help, damn, Xi Duanhong, please untie me!"
Xi Duanhong pulled him impatiently and jumped out of the carriage. When an arrow came towards him, Xi Duanhong immediately blocked it with the sword in his right hand and threw Gu Ziang behind him.
"Shut up if you don't want to die." As he said this, Xi Duanhong drew his sword and faced him, the sword light flashing.
Gu Ziang was stunned, but he quickly reacted and crawled to the side. Xi Duanhong naturally knew this, but she couldn't get away from so many people in front of her.
"Miss, be careful behind you!"
Hearing this, he swung his sword with his backhand and stabbed the person behind him to death. Xi Duanhong stood in front of Gu Ziang with a long sword in his hand, his cold eyes full of murderous intent, "Who else is coming, I guarantee you will never come back."
A group of people looked at each other and rushed forward. Xi Duanhong sneered, "Seeking death."
There are also more and more killers on Xu Zhi's side, "Miss, there are too many people. You take him away first, and I will break up the rear!"
"It doesn't have to be like this. There's no need to cut anyone off, just kill him." After saying that, he waved his sword again and faced him.
"Fuck, Xi Duanhong, hurry up and untie me, oh, oh, help, help!"
Gu Ziang crawled around and grabbed a knife from the ground to grind off his own rope. He held the knife in front of him and danced wildly.
Just when everyone was fighting, Gu Ziang ran back while shouting. Xi Duanhong didn't rush to save him. For a moment, everyone froze on the spot.
Gu Ziang knelt on the ground and covered his mouth with trembling hands. Blood couldn't stop flowing out from the seam of his hands. Xi Duanhong eliminated the killer in front of him and came to Gu Ziang. He held his sword in front of him and looked at him warily. of these killers
When these people saw this, they did not take another step forward and left immediately. Seeing the killers leaving, Xi Duanhong quickly helped Gu Ziang up and came to the carriage. Xi Duanhong checked Gu Ziang's wounds. Gu Ziang was already fainting from pain. passed
"Miss..." Xu Zhi held up a bright red tongue with a handkerchief, "I'm afraid there's nothing I can do about Mr. Gu's mouth."
"Stop his bleeding first," Xi Duanhong stepped out of the carriage and stretched, "I haven't moved my muscles and bones for a long time. Today's fight was quite enjoyable. Xiao Zhi'er, please don't tell the adults about this, you know."
"Don't worry, miss, I won't say a word more."
This time it was Xi Duanhong driving a car. She really liked this feeling of pleasure, but since the affairs of the court had been assigned to the court, she couldn't interfere too much.
The news of my return has not spread back to Kyoto. The Lord probably didn't know that I would go back. When I left, he said that he would be able to take care of things there when I returned. I don't know if it will disrupt his plan now.
——In the Pavilion of Sacrifice, a white dove flew back and landed on Ouyang Zhu's shoulder. He took down the letter tied to the dove's leg.
After reading the letter, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips. Chen Shuli, who was sitting opposite, saw him say something like this: "What's wrong? Is there news about your little girl?"
"Well, this girl is extraordinary. Her martial arts is at least level three and above. She's so deep." Even so, the worry in his eyes was genuine.
"No matter how deep she hides it, she won't let you know, but since she doesn't want us to know, you'd better pretend." Chen Shuli took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Ouyang Zhu, "Sir, Tan Yanqiu's gambling game has begun, I'm just waiting for Miss Xi to bring someone back to join the game."
He took the letter and tore it into pieces without even looking at it. "His bureau boss doesn't bother to join. As for other candidates to join the bureau, the Gu family has priority, and the rest depends on the choices of those who serve as staff."
"Li, go and draft a letter and give it to the person in the palace, saying that what she wants is now in Xi Duanhong's hands."
Chen Shuli was very puzzled by this, "If you do this, Miss Xi will be in danger. If it were not for you in the court, she would not be able to gain a foothold in the court. If you do this now, she will only have more enemies in the court. Are you really relieved?"
"Nothing will happen to her as long as I am here. I will help pave the way for her. She only needs to follow the path arranged by me."
Chen Shuli didn't say anything more, he just shook his head helplessly. No one would be happy to have his life arranged like this, but he couldn't say anything more. After all, what they were planning was far more important than this.
