"I won't leave, I won't leave." Xia hugged her husband tightly and cried bitterly: "I just recognized him."
"Ajian, can't you take big brother back with you?" Shen Heng wiped away her tears.
Xie Jian said in a stern voice, "No." Big brother died to protect them. If those people couldn't find Big brother, it would cause him more trouble in the future.
Xia looked at Xie Jian in disbelief: "Ajian, he is your eldest brother."
"Dawei, take my sister-in-law back." Xie Jian didn't dare to look at his sister-in-law's eyes.
Dawei had no choice but to cruelly separate Xia and the eldest brother of the Xie family.
"Sister-in-law, Ajian has other plans, let's listen to him first." Shen Heng choked and said.
Looking at her husband lying on the ground, Xia felt heartbroken and her whole body ached. No matter how hard life was, she had endured it. She had endured it. She could have lived well and the family could have been reunited.
After the eldest sister-in-law and Ah Heng left, Xie Jian knelt before his eldest brother again, the murderous intent in his eyes no longer hidden: "Come here."
Three assassins came out from the darkness and knelt on the ground waiting for orders.
Xie Jian looked at the three men, who he had trained over the past two years to be his sole assassins. "Erase all traces of our presence. Keep an eye on their every move."
"yes."
An hour later.
Chen Heng didn't know how she and her sister-in-law got home. They hurried on their way, feeling nervous but full of anticipation as they went to look for the eldest brother of the Xie family. However, they ended up facing a life-and-death separation. Li Hu and Da Wei escorted them back to the city. When they entered the secret passage, her sister-in-law fainted from excessive grief and has not woken up since.
Shen Heng waited by her sister-in-law's bedside for Xie Jian to come back.
At this moment, there was a violent knock on the door.
At this sound, Chen Heng's face suddenly changed, and she hurried back to her room.
As soon as Liu Gang opened the door, several imperial guards rushed in. Ouyang En went in and saw Liu Gang winking at him, so he knew that Xie Jian had not returned. This was bad, he could not delay him.
Delaying for a while is better than delaying for a while. Ouyang En stopped a few people and said, "Brothers, this Lord Xie is at least a fourth-rank official of the Central Secretariat. We can't be too casual."
"The Duke of Yu is still the Duke, what's the fourth rank? There are too many fourth-rank officials in the imperial capital." said a royal guard.
"Stop talking, it's important to get down to business."
At this time, Shen Heng came out wearing a coat.
Nanny Feng also came out of her room. Seeing this scene, her heart sank, but she didn't show it on her face. She just said, "I wonder if you gentlemen have any business at this late hour?"
"Where is Lord Xie?" The leader looked around.
Just as Chen Heng was about to insist he was still asleep, she heard Xie Jian's voice from behind: "He's going to the toilet. It's the middle of the night. Why are you coming to my house instead of arresting the criminal?"
When everyone looked, they saw Xie Jian walking out from a corner of the ear room. He was only wearing inner clothes and an outer shirt, and he looked sleepy.
Chen Heng felt relieved, she finally caught up.
The leading Imperial Guard frowned. His mission was to see if this Lord Xie was at home. Since he was, there was nothing to investigate. He put on a smile and said, "Don't blame me, Lord. Such a murderer has appeared in the imperial capital, so we are conducting a routine investigation. I see that there are many people at home, so I think the murderer can't hide here. Sorry to bother you, Lord. I will leave now."
