Chapter 248 How dare you be so rude to him!
Lin Shiqi said:
"Wei Xin, everyone is fighting desperately, but you are just slacking off. This is not the behavior of a good leader! Could it be that you are in Tianxuan Pavilion, but your heart is with Prince Gong's Mansion?"
Her task was actually very easy. She just had to take down a few of the most threatening people. In addition, she was in a high position, which made her very familiar with the situation on the battlefield.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Wei Xin.
Wei Xin couldn't hold back his face anymore.
"What nonsense are you talking about! I also contributed, but none of them rushed in? You are deliberately slandering and trying to sow discord!"
Lin Shiqi sneered.
"They didn't rush in. Is that your credit? How many people did you kill? I saw clearly whether you contributed or not! Of course, I can't control what you do. I just want to remind you that without Tianxuan Pavilion, you are nothing! Even if you want to be a running dog of Prince Gong like Zhou Qinan, he will look down on you!"
"You're looking for death!"
Wei Xin was furious and was about to go and cause trouble for Lin Shiqi, but was stopped by Zhou Lang and Xiao Ya Niang.
Even Jia Yi stepped forward to stop him.
As these people moved, others also gathered around, but there were obviously too few people standing behind Wei Xin.
Jia Er said softly:
"Young Master, don't be impulsive, let's take a long-term view!"
Wei Xin's face was extremely gloomy, but the situation was beyond his control, so he had to turn around and leave.
Seeing that the members of Tianxuan Pavilion were about to split into two factions, Jiayi sighed, but he had no good solution. He ordered the remaining people to continue cleaning up the scene before it got dark. At the same time, they cleaned up the house of the former Pavilion Master and let Zhou Lang and the other two move in.
Back in the house, Wei Xin was still very angry.
How dare an outsider be so rude to him!
A2 and A3 frowned. They had just witnessed the brief confrontation. The number of people standing on their side was much smaller than that on the other side. This was not good.
"Young Master, the current situation is very unfavorable to us. We must take action."
Jia Er sighed and said in a heavy tone.
Wei Xin said dissatisfiedly:
"Of course I know it's disadvantageous! But what should we do? Kill those three outsiders?"
Jia Er was surprised and said quickly:
“No!”
Those three people are not easy to deal with. Their methods are too weird. He instinctively knows that they should not be provoked. Besides, they have the support of Jia Yi.
"Then what should we do?" Wei Xin asked impatiently.
Jia Er considered:
"In fact, although what that woman said was harsh, it made sense. If the Young Pavilion Master cannot get the position of Pavilion Master, then... there is no point in talking about it."
Wei Xin frowned and thought calmly. This was indeed true. However, given the current situation, how could he win the position of Pavilion Master? Many people in the Pavilion were obviously unwilling to support him.
Jia Er frowned and said:
"If we want to reverse this situation, we have to increase our prestige sufficiently. Currently..."
Wei Xin's eyes lit up.
"I'll go kill that Zhou Qinan! In this way, firstly I can avenge the old Pavilion Master, and secondly I can help Tianxuan Pavilion out of trouble. Then they will definitely turn to support me! However, I'm afraid this will anger Prince Gong again."
A2 and A3 all nodded, this was indeed a good idea.
"Young Pavilion Master, please relax. Zhou Qinan is just a newcomer. How much can Prince Gong value him? If the Young Pavilion Master takes the position of Pavilion Master, wouldn't he be much more useful than Zhou Qinan? A dead person is naturally worthless. Could it be that Prince Gong will avenge him? Such a person can see things better than anyone else and will not do meaningless things. However, it is a bit dangerous to kill Zhou Qinan."
Wei Xin felt relieved, and then said fiercely:
"We are assassins, so why should we be afraid of danger? Please lend me a helping hand. When I become the leader of the Pavilion, I will not forget your kindness."
A2 and A3 hesitated. It is a good thing that young people are energetic, but they are not willing to take risks.
Wei Xin's face darkened when he saw this. How could this be possible if these two old guys only wanted to take the benefits but didn't want to put in any effort?
"You two, you are my adoptive father's right-hand men and have always been relied upon. Now that my adoptive father has unfortunately died at the hands of the thieves, how can I not avenge him? This battle is of great importance, and I beg you two to lend me a helping hand!"
Jia Er and Jia San were still somewhat reluctant, but Wei Xin said that as long as they could provide good support, the two reluctantly agreed.
The three of them were still outnumbered, so they found a few good friends, a total of six people, and set out under the cover of night.
Zhou Lang was not wrong in his guess. Zhou Qinan did not return directly to Prince Gong's Mansion, but instead set up camp around the side hall beside the field outside the temple.
Then he went to the abbot of the temple and asked for some soybean oil, intending to make a rocket.
These soldiers were Prince Gong's guards. They had no siege equipment, and the wall of Tianxuan Pavilion was far inferior to the city wall. However, they still could not do anything about it and could only use fire attack.
"Mom, these nights may be uneasy, you have to be alert!"
Before going to bed, Zhou Qinan told his mother Wang.
In his previous life, he had been assassinated by a killer from Tianxuan Pavilion, but that happened after he conquered Tianxuan Pavilion. Some assassins who had escaped the assassination held a grudge against him and sneaked into his house at night. Fortunately, Wang helped him to stop them.
In this life, things have changed. He doesn't know if there are still assassins coming to kill him, but it's always better to be prepared. And keeping her by his side will make it easier for him to take care of her. He is not a completely vicious person.
Under his care, Wang is now more awake, but she has a problem of having trouble sleeping. Her sleep is very shallow and she is easily awakened, which may be due to the psychological trauma she suffered in the past.
"Hey, sleep well, mother will be alert!"
With this son, Wang no longer had to worry about food and drink, and no one dared to take advantage of her anymore. Her life got better day by day, and she just regarded the unbearable past as a dream.
Having this son is enough for everything.
Zhou Qinan divided this room into a suite, and Wang slept in the front room.
Zhou Qinan was sleeping in the back. He also couldn't sleep. The situation was not favorable for him and it gave him a headache. However, he was too nervous during the day and after holding on for a while, he fell asleep involuntarily.
After an unknown amount of time, Wang's exclamation suddenly rang out in the room:
"ah!"
Zhou Qinan woke up with a start and shouted without thinking:
"Someone come quickly! There's an assassin!"
He had guards, but it was impossible for the guards to protect him closely. Just outside the house, several guards were startled by the shouting and rushed into the house.
Zhou Qinan's feeling was correct. There was indeed an assassin in the room, and it was Wei Xin.
Wei Xin was also extremely depressed at this time. With his experience as a killer, he easily determined where the chief officer lived. He entered the house and found the person sleeping. But when he stepped forward and was about to take action, the other party suddenly shouted!
It's already early in the morning, why aren't you asleep yet?
And the sound doesn't seem right?
At this moment, he heard Zhou Qinan's shout. He didn't care about anything else and cut Wang's neck with a knife, then rushed towards Zhou Qinan.
