Chapter 122 Jin丨Exclusive publication of Jiang Wenxue
Gong Jiu knew that what his elder brother said made sense, but he didn't want to leave Pei Rui and Xue Chen alone.
Pei Rui seemed stupid, but he was actually very scheming. He tricked that man into adopting him as his adopted son, and took advantage of his young age to pretend to be weak and ignorant in front of his brother to deceive his brother's sympathy and provoke the relationship between the two brothers.
He and Pei Rui had just fought, and neither of them could do anything to the other, but Pei Rui deliberately showed a losing position!
If he left, who knows how that little bastard would exaggerate!
But when he met his elder brother's eyes, Gong Jiu knew that his elder brother was determined to let him leave.
Just now, she had to hold his hand to fall asleep peacefully, but after Pei Rui came over, she treated him so coldly...
Gong Jiu reluctantly retreated and came to the outer room. He looked back and saw Pei Rui leaning on his brother's bed through the thin curtains. The two were very intimate.
He must find a way to kill Pei Rui.
Gong Jiu left Xue Chen's yard.
However, the scene in the house was not as warm as Gong Jiu imagined.
After he left, Xue Chen and Pei Rui were lying and sitting, and no one made a sound.
Pei Rui was still transferring his internal energy to Xue Chen. Xue Chen rubbed his head and pinched his face.
Xue Chen: [It's quite tight when pinched, and it's not stiff, so why can't you laugh?]
System: [Facial paralysis.]
Xue Chen: [Facial paralysis should be a disease of the central nervous system?]
System: [No, I mean that Xiaomian's personality setting may be like this.]
Xue Chen controlled Pei Rui's body and smiled. The main body looked at himself carefully: [It's not a setting, I can still laugh, but the smile is a bit fake. This expression doesn't suit him, he should just be a cool guy.]
System: [As for your brother, are you just going to ignore him? Didn't you say you would use Xiaomian to warn him?]
Xue Chen: [I have already warned him.]
System: [? 】
Xue Chen:【In this case, my brother must think that Xiao Mian is saying bad things about him. In order to maintain his position in my heart, he will definitely show his best side and will not make things worse.】
System:【Is this also your PUA trick?】
Xue Chen:【I said I never thought about PUA him, do you believe it?】
System:【I don’t believe it.】
Xue Chen:【Liar, I clearly said that you will believe whatever I say. Liar system.】
System:【……】
-The
medicine that Xue Chen drank was very useful, and with Pei Rui’s help to stimulate the medicinal properties with internal force, his fever subsided quickly.
When he returned home, he did not let the servants alarm anyone. King Taiping did not know that "Xue Lian" had returned. He was working in the army at noon and did not return to the mansion.
Xue Chen and Pei Rui had a meal together, and after taking the medicine, they were about to lie down and take another nap when the servants came to inform him that Zhui Ming had come and asked if he wanted to see him.
System: [Oh no, Xiao Mian was absent from work for no reason, and the boss came to see him in person.]
Xue Chen said gently, "Please let him in."
He called Xiao He over and combed her hair. Xiao He brought a peacock blue robe over, compared it to Xue Chen, put it back, and changed into a red robe.
Xue Chen smiled and said, "Red does make you look better."
Xiao He: "Don't think too much, sir. I don't mean that. I just think it's snowing outside, and red is more suitable."
Xue Chen looked out the window and said with a sigh, "It's snowing in the capital, which is a good sign."
After changing his clothes, Xue Chen came to the room outside, sat on the low couch, and looked at the courtyard through the window.
The snow in the courtyard had been swept clean, and the thin snow on the branches had melted, so there was no snow at all.
Pei Rui sat next to the main body, peeled an orange, and stuffed a slice into the main body's mouth with his backhand.
System: [? ? Did you use the wrong hand? Or did you stuff the wrong mouth? ]
Xue Chen: [It seems so. ]
System: [How can this be wrong? 】
Xue Chen:【I'm lying to you. You don't believe me anyway.】
System:【……】
When Zhui Ming came over, he saw Xiao Mian and Master Xue sitting together. The blind boy looked straight ahead, slightly leaned over, and fed Master Xue oranges affectionately.
Master Xue looked lazy. The room was still filled with a faint smell of medicine, but this time there was no blood or incense. The deathly aura that seemed like a serious illness also dissipated a lot, and the atmosphere became relaxed.
Zhui Ming said: "I'm sorry to come here suddenly. Please forgive me, Master Xue."
Xue Chen's voice was slightly hoarse: "Master Zhui is too polite. Please sit down."
System:【Your brother called him Master Cui! 】
Xue Chen:【Many people in the original book called him Master Zhui. 】
System:【Can you all unify it? 】
Xue Chen:【It's a bit difficult. 】
System: [……]
Zhui Ming sat opposite Pei Rui. Xiao He served him tea. He thanked him and said, "I came here for Xiao Mian. Today is not a day off, but Xiao Mian did not come to the Shenbu Division. He was watching the snow in the wind yesterday. I was a little worried that he was sick. I was relieved to see that Xiao Mian was fine."
Xue Chen looked at the vest next to him: "What's the matter?"
Pei Rui said happily: "Second brother is back, I miss him."
Xue Chen: "Then we have to send someone to the Shenhou Mansion to tell them, so that others don't worry about you."
Pei Rui blinked slowly: "But Cui Ming said yesterday that I can go wherever I want and don't need to care about him."
System: [Do you have to do this? ]
Xue Chen: [This is very important to me! 】
System: [……]
Xue Chen looked at Zhui Ming, who said helplessly: "I did say that, but it's not what Xiao Mian thought..."
Xue Chen touched Ma Jia's head and said, "Xiao Mian doesn't think much, and it will take a while for her to come to her senses. Thank you, Mr. Cui San, for your concern." Zhui
Ming: "..."
Why are you two brothers like this?
Xiao Mian should be the adopted son of King Taiping, not his biological son, right?
System: [Why can't you be consistent?]
Xue Chen: [Ma Jia is used to it and can't change it.]
System: [I don't believe it.]
Xue Chen: [Lie system. 】
System: [……]
With Pei Rui's example, Zhui Ming quickly accepted Xue Chen's address. He watched the two brothers communicate, confused, and said cheerfully; "It seems that the relationship between the eldest son and Xiao Mian has improved a lot."
Xue Chen was slightly stunned, then smiled softly: "Really?"
Zhui Ming: "The last time Cui came, the relationship between the eldest son and Xiao Mian was still a little strange."
Xue Chen pondered and tapped the armrest of the low couch with his fingers.
Pei Rui continued to peel oranges and stuffed them into his original body's mouth without looking back.
System: [Eating too many oranges will cause internal heat. 】
Xue Chen: [I heard that orange peels can reduce fever, and eating more can also supplement vitamins, which is good for colds. 】
System: [Then you can just eat orange peels. 】
Xue Chen: [That's too extravagant, I'm very frugal. 】
System: [……]
Xue Chen said gently: "I have not been in good health. Sometimes I feel very sick and my temper is also a little bad." Zhui
Ming: "I see, has the eldest master been feeling better these days?"
Xue Chen said apologetically: "I caught a cold yesterday. The fever has just subsided and I am not fully recovered yet. Logically, I should not see guests, so as not to get sick. But I have been sick for a long time. Since the chief of the police has come to visit specially, I think he should not care about this, so I came out to receive him. I didn't expect that Mr. Cui San came just for Xiao Mian."
Zhui Ming: "It is an honor for me that Mr. Xue is willing to see me. I am so happy. Besides, it is not right to go to your house without paying a visit to the host."
Xue Chen asked someone to bring some snacks and shared them with Zhui Ming.
Pei Rui also followed suit, eating one bite at a time. He also took a few and handed them to Zhui Ming: "This is delicious, try it."
Zhui Ming: "Okay."
He felt as if there was something wrong, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that there was nothing wrong.
Xue Chen also took a snack, and then found out with worry that the cold seemed to have affected his taste. The food that tasted delicious before was not so delicious now.
He put the snack down and just drank water.
Zhui Ming sat here for a while, then got up and said goodbye.
Pei Rui completed his mission, and did not continue to stay in the mansion. He followed Zhui Ming directly to work together.
Zhui Ming noticed that Pei Rui's hands were empty: "Where is your knife?"
Pei Rui: "It's broken."
Zhui Ming: "Broken?"
Pei Rui nodded.
Zhui Ming: "How could a knife break?"
Generally speaking, a knife will only bend. If it breaks or shatters, it must have suffered a heavy blow.
Xiao Mian's knife was still fine yesterday. How come it broke in less than half a day?
The prince returned to the mansion. In the morning, Xiao Mian should be with the prince and the eldest son. What could go wrong?
Moreover, Xiao Mian said that she didn't go to the Shenhou Mansion to work because she wanted to welcome the prince back to the mansion. In fact, she has no feelings for the prince and is more intimate with the eldest son.
He even drugged the prince...
Pei Rui: "My second brother hit me, I blocked him with a knife and the knife broke."
Zhui Ming: "Why did he hit you?"
Pei Rui said in confusion: "I went to see my eldest brother, and my second brother was unhappy."
Zhui Ming: "Does he still think you stole the eldest son?"
Pei Rui nodded: "My second brother is narrow-minded."
Xiao Mian's words were full of childishness. Zhui Ming laughed, paused, and said: "Since your second brother cares so much about your eldest brother, "Brother, why are you the only one with the eldest son, but the prince is not there?"
Pei Rui: "They had a fight, and the eldest brother chased the second brother away."
Zhui Ming: "Fight?"
Pei Rui: "The second brother hit me, and the eldest brother was unhappy, so they had a fight."
Zhui Ming thought he could find out something useful, but Xiao Mian's brain was like this, he could only understand the simplest things, and he couldn't perceive anything more complicated, let alone tell him.
Zhui Ming gave up asking, and when he saw Pei Rui almost stepped into a puddle, he pulled him and brought him to the side of the road.
He suddenly realized what the sense of incongruity was when he was with Master Xue just now.
Xiao Mian was very comfortable when he was with Master Xue, just like a person with good eyesight, he could get whatever he wanted quickly without having to grope with his hands.
This shows that Master Xue is very careful and has already informed Xiao Mian in advance the location of everything on the table.
But last time, Xiao Mian brought pastries over, but Master Xue didn't show any concern for him.
Master Xue and Xiao Mian, from being strangers, suddenly became close... Could it be that the Master Xue I saw last time was actually the prince of the Taiping Palace who had a bad relationship with Xiao Mian?
But he suddenly fell ill in the middle of the night, and the smell of blood in the room didn't seem fake.
Zhui Ming became more and more confused as he thought about it.
He simply gave up thinking and stopped thinking about this problem.
-The
first floor of Qingyi Building is very mysterious. It has been famous in the world for so many years, but no one has ever known its location.
Lu Xiaofeng followed Yun Heyan to the first floor. He was looking forward to it, but as the scenery became more and more familiar, his mood became more and more difficult to describe.
Isn't this the way to Huo Xiu's place?
The two continued walking, and Lu Xiaofeng saw a familiar building: "Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion?"
Yun Heyan: "Yes."
Lu Xiaofeng: "Come to think of it, Mr. Yan from Zhuguangbaoqige is still my friend. We met once many years ago and got along very well."
Yun Heyan: "Your friends have never been very good."
Lu Xiaofeng: "How is that possible!"
Yun Heyan; "Except Hua Manlou. " Lu Xiaofeng : "
What about
Ximen Chuxue?" Yun Heyan: "Except Ximen Chuxue." Lu Xiaofeng : "Sikong Zhaixing?" Yun Heyan: "Except Sikong Zhaixing." Lu Xiaofeng: "Zhu Ting?" Yun Heyan: "Except Zhu Ting." Lu Xiaofeng: "..." He finally realized that Yun Heyan was joking with him. Lu Xiaofeng tightened her cape: "You learned bad things from Ximen Chuxue." Yun Heyan: "If you need my help, you can shave off your eyebrows and bring them to me. When I see it, I will know that it is a matter of burned eyebrows, and I will definitely come to help as quickly as possible." Lu Xiaofeng: "Should I thank you?" Yun Heyan: "You're welcome." System: [Da Mian and Lu Xiaofeng seem to be performing crosstalk.] Xue Chen: [Do you think you can be any better?] System: [……] Qingyi Building is located in the back mountain of Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion, and the two forces are very close. When Lu Xiaofeng saw the first floor, he was stunned. He seemed to be doubting himself. He had passed by the Pearl Pavilion many times and visited Huo Xiu nearby more than once. Why didn't he think about walking around in the mountains? The first floor looked low-key, but it was not small at all. It was enough to accommodate 108 people. The forest could not completely block it. As long as he walked for another half an hour, he could see the first floor. Lu Xiaofeng saw that Yun Heyan was still going to move forward, so he pulled him back. Yun Heyan looked back in confusion: "What?" Lu Xiaofeng: "I always feel that it's not good to go in like this. If they know I'm Lu Xiaofeng, they might kill me directly to cover up Huo Xiu's identity." Yun Heyan pointed at his beard: "Shave it off?" Lu Xiaofeng: "That's not what I mean!" Yun Heyan took off his hat and put it on his head: "Let's go." Lu Xiaofeng took off his cloak, folded it a few times, stuffed it into his clothes, and tidied his coat, making the cloak more even, making it look thicker at the waist than before, without too much sense of disharmony, then he lowered his hat and followed Yun Heyan into the building. When the people in the building saw Yun Heyan coming back, they all showed shocked expressions. Most of them were distant from Yun Heyan and were full of awe for this bloodthirsty killer. They didn't dare to approach him to say hello. They wanted to walk along the wall to minimize their presence. Yun Heyan also cooperated and looked ahead. He didn't look at anyone and went straight to the first floor. He whispered to Lu Xiaofeng, "Be careful of the trap." Lu Xiaofeng lowered his voice and said, "Okay." Yun Heyan recalled the place where Ye Hai had stepped before, and brought Lu Xiaofeng to a room. He knocked on the door, and Ye Hai, who was half naked, opened the door. His defense and indifference melted away the moment he saw Yun Heyan. "Heyan... are you still alive?" Yun Heyan nodded: "Brother." "Uncle Yun is in heaven..." Ye Hai had tears in his eyes and gritted his teeth and said: "Those villains who do things behind the scenes will never have a good end." Yun Heyan saw the wounds on his body that were still bleeding and cast a puzzled look. Ye Hai said: "You haven't been home for many days, and someone in the building spread rumors that you have died outside. I was so angry that I had a fight with them. After killing a few of them, everything calmed down. But Qiu Jun is still looking for trouble with me... Come in quickly, don't stand outside." He pulled Yun Heyan into the house and quickly closed the door. Lu Xiaofeng, who was about to say hello: "..." Yun Heyan reopened the door, pulled him into the house, and closed the door again. Ye Hai originally thought that Yun Heyan was dead, and now that he was back safely, he was in a very excited mood. He was about to reminisce with Yun Heyan, but he didn't expect a mysterious man wearing a straw hat to come in, and his excited emotions calmed down. Ye Hai asked: "Who is this...?" Yun Heyan didn't say anything. Lu Xiaofeng deliberately lowered his voice: "I am Yun Heyan's friend." Ye Hai's expression was cold. Lu Xiaofeng was a little confused. His identity was special, and it was inconvenient for him to reveal too much. He could only do this for the time being, following behind Yun Heyan and watching him greet Ye Hai. In front of strangers, Ye Hai was reserved. He seemed to want to change the bandage on his wound, and the medicine bottle was placed on the table. But now he had no intention of removing the bandage, but put on his coat. Yun Heyan: "I have killed Yu Heng, and I came back to deliver the task." Ye Hai: "I will report it for you. Do you want to rest next, or continue to go out and kill people?" Yun Heyan: "Who hurt you?" Ye Hai knew that this brother looked cold, but actually cared about him very much. He was moved and replied, "The one who hurt me has died under my sword." Yun Heyan: "Okay." Lu Xiaofeng: "Are you a killer too?" Ye Hai glanced at him coldly, without answering him, and continued to ask Yun Heyan: "If you take on another mission, be careful when you go out. I'm afraid they have made arrangements in advance, which will be disadvantageous to you." Yun Heyan nodded: "I know. " Ye Hai: "It's not safe to stay in the building... After you left that day, someone moved into the room you lived in, slept in it, and never woke up again." Yun Heyan: "Someone next door poisoned." Ye Hai: "Is that so. Since you know it in your heart, I don't think these people can do anything to you." Yun Heyan: "I want to kill them, once and for all." Lu Xiaofeng listened quietly.
Yun Heyan had never told him about what happened in Qingyi Building. He only knew that someone wanted to kill him, but he didn't know what was going on. Now from the few words of these two people, Lu Xiaofeng heard a lot of things.
The people who wanted to kill Yun Heyan used very shady methods.
They seemed to have no suitable reason to kill people, so they could only sneak attack, assassinate, and poison him to death in such a despicable way.
But how could Ye Hai survive smoothly?
Ye Hai said worriedly, "That's too dangerous. If you really attack them, wouldn't that give them an excuse to deal with you openly?"
Yun Heyan: "Isn't it open enough now?"
Ye Hai: "What do you mean? How dare they attack you directly?"
"Brother, those things are all in the past." Yun Heyan didn't want him to know what kind of danger he had faced. He pointed at Lu Xiaofeng and said, "He will help us."
Ye Hai: "Who is he?"
Yun Heyan: "The friend of the chief."
Ye Hai was shocked: "The chief?!"
He had lived in Qingyi Building since he was a child and had never seen the true face of the chief. He was
on the 34th floor before and had no qualifications to contact these people. Now that he was on the first floor, he still didn't know who the chief was.
Many people have seen the chief leader, but the chief leader always wraps himself up very strictly, just like the mysterious man in front of him. It is said that no more than 20 people in Qingyi Building have seen his true face, and Yun Heyan's adoptive father is one of them.
And even if they have seen his appearance, they don't know where this person came from.
Yun Heyan can actually find the chief leader's friend!
Ye Hai felt a little hopeful: "Did the chief leader ask him to help us?"
Yun Heyan shook his head: "He will kill the chief leader."
Ye Hai was stunned: "What?" Lu
Xiaofeng also looked at Yun Heyan suddenly.
When did he say that he would kill Huo Xiu? Don't spread rumors about him while he can't speak freely!
Yun Heyan: "Look, he can't wait any longer."
Lu Xiaofeng endured and endured, and said in a deep voice: "When did I say I would kill him?"
Yun Heyan: "You are against him. If you don't die, he will die. He will never let you go. Will you surrender?"
Lu Xiaofeng: "What you said makes sense, but it doesn't mean I will kill him myself."
Yun Heyan: "I will help you kill him."
Lu Xiaofeng: "..."
Is that very different from me doing it myself?
And what does "help me kill him" mean? Don't you want to kill him yourself?
Ye Hai thought thoughtfully: "If it is this senior who takes action, maybe it can succeed. But this is a matter between the senior and the boss. He Yan is simple-minded and ignorant of the world. He just follows orders and works hard for Qingyi Building. He is not the culprit. Please be kind and don't let He Yan get involved."
Lu Xiaofeng: "..."
Xue Chen: [Wow, he is better than me! ]
System: [You are too humble, Brother Ye Hai is far worse than you. He is the one who really cares about Yun He Yan and is not weird at all. ]
Xue Chen: [I want to learn from him. ]
System: [……] Learn something good!
Lu Xiaofeng thinks that he should not agree to let Yun He Yan come over.
He had foreshadowed it when he was locked outside just now. He should have turned around and ran.
Lu Xiaofeng: "I have no grudge against your leader."
Ye Hai: "Are you here to help Heyan? Why?"
Lu Xiaofeng: "Because Yun Heyan is also my friend."
This sentence could not convince Ye Hai, and even made him more alert. He said coldly: "Heyan has never had any friends."
Lu Xiaofeng: "..."
No wonder this person's attitude suddenly became cold when he just said that he was Yun Heyan's friend.
He looked at Yun Heyan and coughed lightly.
Yun Heyan did not have the memory of the past, and still could not determine Ye Hai's position, and did not dare to reveal Lu Xiaofeng's identity now.
He said calmly: "Brother, he is really my friend."
Ye Hai suddenly saw the Dou hat on the head of this mysterious man: "This Dou hat..."
Yun Heyan: "It's mine."
Ye Hai: "Then he..."
Yun Heyan: "He is my friend."
Ye Hai looked at Lu Xiaofeng: "I believe it now. I was rude before, please forgive me. I wonder when you plan to kill the leader, and how you plan to kill him?"
Lu Xiaofeng: "......?"
Why do I have to do the killing? You two are the killers!
