MTL - Kunning-Chapter 223 hate
"After receiving the order from the master, I was going to go immediately. It's just that when I was about to go, I heard the people coming and going. Zhou Yinzhi went to Her Royal Highness the Princess. After talking for a while, it seemed that he gave something back." Dao Qin He knelt half-kneeling, buried his head under the steps, and clenched his fingers tightly on the handle of the knife, as if he was trying to endure something, but his eyes were still red, and he said in a hoarse voice, "After telling them to continue to pay attention, Fang went to find Zhou Yinzhi. But when I went, when I went..."
When he left, Zhou Yinzhi was already in You Fangyin's house, holding him hostage with a knife.
How important is You Fangyin, how could he not know?
With hostages in hand, Zhou Yinzhi was invincible. Although his knives and zither skills were good, he wanted to do it again and again, but because You Fangyin was in the opponent's hands, he was in danger many times, fearing that he would hurt someone.
Those who are wary of rats are bound to be restrained.
The opponent was able to climb up to the position of deputy commander of Jinyiwei all the way, so he was not a mediocre person at all. In a quick fight, Dao Qin was almost cut off by his knife, but fortunately he retreated in time, and only scratched his face.
However, it was this retreat that gave Zhou Yinzhi a chance.
At that moment, the viciousness and unscrupulousness of this person were fully reflected——
He unexpectedly stabbed You Fangyin through the back of the heart without mercy.
The blood-stained Xiuchun knife pierced her body sharply.
Daoqin was cold all over at that time, all she could do was rush over to catch You Fangyin, hurriedly pressed her wound, and tried to call the doctor for help. But Zhou Yinzhi took this opportunity to escape, and climbed out along the wall of the backyard, disappearing from sight.
The scars on Xie Wei's waist and abdomen hadn't completely healed, he was supposed to rest in the house, but now he was standing in the kitchen, slowly putting a small plate of freshly made peach cake into the food box.
It was afternoon outside the door.
The sun shines lazily, but it makes people feel no warmth at all.
Jiang Xuening had been alone in the house for a whole day and did not come out.
On the night of You Fangyin's accident, she hugged her body that was getting cold and stiff, and no one could persuade her and pulled her away. In the end it was Yan Lin who came back and knocked him unconscious before sending him back to his room.
The whole mansion was in chaos.
The most strange thing is that after the immediate order was sent to seal the city, there was no trace of Zhou Yinzhi. It wasn't until midnight that he checked the soldiers on duty at the various city gates before, and found out those who had been bribed by Zhou Yinzhi. It turned out that after leaving the General's Mansion, Zhou Yinzhi went straight out of the city to escape without any delay.
people die.
The murderer was not caught.
The next day, the news from Shuzhong and Jiangnan finally came belatedly. It was reported that as early as half a month ago, the Ren's Saltworks and the Jiangnan-related chambers of commerce were first imprisoned for participating in the crime of treason. Be an example. It's just that the other party's attack was too fast and too ruthless, and there were not many people left who dared to pass on the news; the other was that Zhou Yinzhi ordered the city to besieged and guarded against death, blocked the official road, and almost cut off the news of going to the northwest; The third is that the journey is far away. If the letter is not sent in an expedited manner through the imperial post office, it will take at least a month for ordinary news to reach Xinzhou.
And Zhou Yinzhi is well aware of all this.
The search was left to Jin Yiwei and the government, while he came to the capital alone, performing a good show of falsehood and deception, waiting for the opportunity to attack You Fangyin and take away the seal, so as to obtain the rest stored in the major banks and ticket offices. Great wealth.
Such a thunderous method is obviously Zhou Yinzhi, but behind it must be the support of the emperor.
But Jiang Xuening woke up, and after hearing the report, she just said dumbly: "Got it."
She drove everyone else out and closed the door. She didn't want to see anyone or hear any news. Even the food delivered to the door had already cooled down, but she never came out once, let alone touched half of her chopsticks.
Xie Wei didn't raise his head to look at Daoqin, but just rolled his eyes and said, "Zhou Yinzhi knew before he did it that between chasing him and saving You Fangyin, you would definitely give up the former and choose the latter. This man has a heart." It is not surprising that it is more vicious than you."
Daoqin doesn't think so.
The knife wound on his cheek was still fresh, and he could hardly hold back the redness of his eyes: "If the subordinate had gone down sooner or later, Miss You might not have been murdered by him. I was plotted by others and restrained, which hurt You girl…"
Although Daoqin has been with Xie Wei for a long time and has seen many things, but there are few things in his life that he is sorry to others, let alone such a girl?
After all, he is still a bit of a teenager.
Anger and guilt surged all over him, weighing him down so much that he couldn't lift his head, and even shed tears. He didn't care about wiping it vigorously, there was only a suppressed ruthlessness in his movements, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
Xie Wei looked up at him, sighed softly, but said: "You are not wrong, stop kneeling."
The sword book next to him is not very used to his rare cowardly appearance.
He stepped forward, trying to pull him up, and scolded him with a frown: "What's there to cry about? Can crying save someone?!"
Xie Wei only said: "Catch the murderer and sacrifice to the dead, that's the way to make up for it."
Dao Qin refused to get up, but gritted his teeth and said: "Dao Qin is willing to serve you to death!"
Xie Wei closed the lid of the food box, and no matter how the two of them tossed about, he took the food box and walked slowly past him, only said indifferently: "Wait for a while, wait for Ning Er to explain."
However, after taking two steps out, the footsteps couldn't help but stop.
He turned around and asked, "How is Lu Xian these days?"
Jian Shu was stunned, and after a while, he said in a low voice: "He looks like he is fine, and he is buried in the room all day long to handle the military accounts. Yesterday, there was an accountant who said that he made several miscalculations."
Xie Wei was silent and did not ask any more questions.
He carried the food box and walked into Jiang Xuening's yard.
The injury has not recovered, and the pace is neither big nor fast.
When he got to the corridor outside the courtyard, he happened to see Shen Zhiyi.
Although she was rescued, Her Highness the Princess, who was unable to return to the capital for the time being, was dressed in a light-colored plain dress and stood quietly under the flower stand that had just sprouted spring buds. Some misty rain like dazed.
Xie Wei's footsteps stopped.
He also glanced at the courtyard, before he said: "Your Highness, don't you want to go and have a look?"
When Shen Zhiyi saw him, she was silent for a while, and said, "Don't dare."
Xie Wei said: "Ning Er came to the border to save the princess, and You Fangyin followed Ning Er, but now he is gone because of this, Your Highness feels uncomfortable, so you dare not see him?"
Shen Zhiyi actually heard a tingle from these words.
She stared at Xie Wei.
Xie Wei was very calm, he didn't seem to care about life and death, he just said: "If Xie is Your Highness, he will toss and turn and can't sleep. But standing here can't change anything. Your Highness It's cold in the spring, so don't stand here to blow the wind, so as not to hurt your body."
He went down the steps.
Shen Zhiyi looked at his back, not sure if that trace of hostility was her own illusion, but at this moment, she didn't want to care about Xie Wei's identity.
So Wei Wei asked bluntly: "Is Mr. Xie jealous of me?"
Xie Wei didn't smile, and didn't answer, he closed his eyes and went forward.
The maids waited outside tremblingly, in case Jiang Xuening would be summoned from inside.
The food on the table was already cold.
The door was still tightly closed, and there was no sign of opening it at all, and it was extremely quiet inside.
The door was not actually locked, nor was it barred from the inside.
It's just that no one dared to disturb her.
Xie Weilai knew what was going on without even looking at the maidservants, he walked forward with the food box and slowly pushed the door open.
In broad daylight, the house was very dark.
With the creaking sound of the door opening, a piece of dazzling light gradually expanded and fell on the cold ground.
A cold voice came from a dark corner: "Get out."
Xie Wei was not angry when he heard it, but after walking in, he turned around and closed the door again.
He carried the food box and traced the source of the sound to find her.
Jiang Xuening was leaning against a wall, sitting on the ground in a dark corner, her arms loosely and half hugging her bent knees. When she heard the sound of approaching footsteps, a deep hostility suddenly flashed across her expressionless face, and she raised her eyes, about to explode.
However, it was Xie Wei's figure that caught his eye.
Her cheeks were so pale that they were almost transparent, her body was as thin as if it could be blown away, her bloodless lips looked fragile, but her eyes had an astonishing darkness due to the thinness of her cheeks, like the light of a knife in the night, Li De could Dive into people's hearts.
Jiang Xuening looked at him: "What are you doing here?"
Xie Wei put down the food box on the table, took the plate of peach slices and put it in front of her, and said: "Let's eat something."
He had intended to sit in front of her.
But the wound in the waist and abdomen hadn't healed yet, so he couldn't sit still, so he gently stretched out his hand, pulled a chair from the side, sat down beside her, and said to her: "Zhou Yinzhi has run away, I'm afraid he will be caught soon." Can't stop, if you starve to death first, it will be a joke."
Jiang Xuening noticed that his movements were a little more sluggish than usual, and said calmly: "You don't want to die."
Xie Wei said: "Ning Er, sometimes it's not a person who has to stand on the top of the mountain or climb the cliff by himself. It's only when he reaches the end that he realizes that it's a cliff. The world's affairs are the wind that blows sand and rocks behind you, and ravages the dead. Either stand in place , let it swallow you up; or be forced to close your eyes and jump into the abyss ahead. Even if you want to, there is no other choice."
Jiang Xuening blinked: "Why is it me, why is it her?"
Xie Wei raised his hand, touched her cheek with his fingertips, and brushed a strand of messy hair hanging from the side behind her snow-white ear.
The sound is like the mountains after the rain, there is a kind of misty silence.
He said: "A person's life is constantly losing. It's not like this, there is also that. You can't grasp those things that have been lost, it will make you lose what you still have now."
Jiang Xuening at this moment is so fragile.
It seemed like it would shatter if dropped on the ground.
His movements were so cautious that the sleeves he passed didn't even stir the fine dust floating in the air.
She felt like a porcelain vase full of hatred and anger, unwillingness and sorrow. It was obviously colliding inside, but the outside looked as cold as a layer of dead ashes.
There are many things in the world that are confusing.
She stared at Xie Ju'an, but thought of the past out of time, and then asked: "I said that day that you had killed me, why didn't you ask me about it?"
Xie Wei looked at her with closed eyes, and said slowly, "I don't want to know."
Jiang Xuening smiled mischievously: "You are really smart."
In fact, that sentence is not fair to Xie Wei in this life. She knew it too, but it was out of her control. Because she is Jiang Xuening who has experienced two lives, what happened in the past can be erased in other people's hearts, but it cannot erase the scars in her heart.
Xie Ju'an is always a perceptive person.
Many things can be detected and guessed roughly, but it is not necessarily necessary to break through and ask to the end.
As the saying goes, it is rare to be confused.
He is different from Zhang Zhe. Zhang Zhe feels that if two people want to be together, if there is a secret, it will not last long; but Xie Wei is too smart, so he is willing to be confused on the contrary. Having a secret is not a hindrance to him, and it is even just a trivial matter.
He only asked her softly: "Do you want to talk?"
Jiang Xuening said, "I don't want to say it."
She slowly leaned back, leaning the back of her head against the cold wall, blinked, but recalled something from a long, long time ago, and said to him quietly: "Actually, since I was young, I hated you when I first met you." You. You are wearing white clothes, holding a piano, and you look like a sickly tuberculosis ghost. You look down upon others, and your behavior is not at all similar to those people, and it is not the same as me. You are the most amazing person in life. What I hate is those eyes. It seems to know everything, and I even feel that you are pitying me. You let me know how different people are, and let me stand on this side of the chasm. I Nothing, the closer I was to the capital, the more afraid I was, and the more I hated you. Then I really thought about it, if I were given another chance to go back to that time, I would take your knife and drop it Your harp, throw you in the wilderness, and let the wolves in the mountains eat you."
A tear rolled down from the corner of her eye.
Xie Wei slowly stretched out his hand, hugged her, let her lean on his lap, and said in a low voice, "You should have done that."
Her tense body finally trembled slightly.
In the end, Jiang Xuening still exposed all her weakness in front of him, but only stared at a fixed point in the void, and said, "You are a very bad, very bad person."
Xie Wei said, "I am."
Jiang Xuening cried for a long time.
Xie Wei also listened for a long time, and then slowly said: "Sometimes you can't be a good person, even if you are a very bad person, there is nothing wrong with it. You have to feel that you can become a different person in order to truly Become a different person. Break the barriers that you set up for yourself, believe first, and then do it. Either be crushed, or come through. Lucky always belongs to a few people, and God will not favor us so much. Ning Er, hatred is sometimes a good thing."
As much as he hoped, she could believe that they could be together.
Go break down that barrier.
Jiang Xuening raised her eyes to look at him, she bent her lips with sarcasm, but afterward, there was only deep sorrow and floating sadness, and asked: "Xie Ju'an, is this how you've been here all your life?"
Xie Wei nodded slightly: "Yes."
He lowered his eyes, thinking, this is how he came here before.
