Chapter 6

Shi Yan went upstairs with ease, passed the quiet room, waved to Xiao Er who was holding a teapot and asked, "Little Brother, where is my friend?"

The second elder brother smiled and said, "It's good to teach you, this Mr. He ordered food after taking a bath, but he didn't come out of the house."

When Shi Yan knew it, he waved away the outsiders and turned around to knock on the door next door: "Conceived?"

However, the door opened in a moment, and the person was still the same person, but he had changed into neat clothes, and after the blood was washed away, the eyes on his clear and handsome face were still the most attractive, shining brightly.

He Ningwen turned sideways to let Shi Yan enter the room, his usual smile disappeared, he closed the door behind his back and said, "You are in a hurry to go out but things have changed?" The two of them came here for the fake person, seeing the fake person When people were left in Chai Mansion, Yan went out in a hurry.Just now he heard noisy people's voices coming and going again, wondering if something happened to this Young Master Shi.

Shi Yan laughed, "Hey, when Shi Mou first came to Tiandu, he just didn't know how to walk around."

If He Ningwen didn't know that Shi Yan didn't like to be fake, he probably wanted to comment on a rhetoric. Even so, he took another look at Shi Yan, took a teapot, poured a cup of tea, and pushed Shi Yan to bring up this topic: "Tiandu Everyone is in danger, everyone has to be careful." In the end, He Ningwen couldn't help looking up at Shi Yan, Shi Yan didn't seem like someone who could change his behavior for such an external matter.

It's funny to say that his friendship with Shi Yan is not deep but he has drawn many conclusions, but fortunately Shi Yan is not an unpredictable person.

Shi Yan nodded, showing a look of deep approval, and said: "That's true. I heard that many things happened in the court. Princess Taifu will return to Beijing to pay homage to the emperor soon, and the Fuguang Division has changed..." He said in his mouth The secrets of the imperial court that ordinary people dare not tell.

After listening to the conversation, He Ningwen drank the tea in the cup, and said with a smile, "What's the matter with you and me?" After all, the secrets of the court are the affairs of the court, they will not interfere and don't care.

Shi Yan also smiled: "Naturally, it's because I have a lot to do with you that I can confide in you."

What kind of heart-to-heart is this, although He Ningwen has only spent a short time with Shi Yan, she also knows that Shi Yan is not a smooth-talking person, he said so, it must be true.But He Ningwen didn't want to dwell on this, and started talking again: "It's time for us to set off to see that person."

At this moment, there was an abnormal noise in the street, the two walked quickly to the window and opened the window, and the sound of people came in.

"...Nonsense..." "Something went wrong!" "...Killed!"

The crowd was scattered but it didn't stop the buzzing of people. He Ning caught a glimpse of Shi Yan's sideways glance from the corner of his eyes. Before he could meet his gaze, he saw the man in black who had talked to Shi Yan earlier in the crowd.The man also happened to look up and saw the two people in the house. Perhaps it was an emergency situation. Regardless of the surprise of the passers-by, the man climbed up to the window sill with his toes. Shi Yan turned sideways to let him into the house, and asked directly, "What happened to the Chai Mansion?"

"Someone murdered Mr. Chai at the Cleansing Wind Banquet!"

"They designed to frame Mr. He and kill Mr. Chai."

The two voices came to his ears at the same time, Shi Yan's expression turned cold, and He Ningwen scoffed: "I didn't expect mere scapegoats to be the scapegoat."

"Let's go to Chai Mansion first." Shi Yan made a final decision.

The three hurried on, and the man named Jin Lian on the road quickly explained the situation to Shi Yan: "We have found out that it is Li Lanchao who pretended to be Mr. He."

Shi Yan repeated the name: "Jinghu?"

Jin Lian was not in good shape, but he was just able to keep up with Shi Yan and He Ningwen. He nodded: "His aunt asked the young master to do something before."

"Not bad." Shi Yan had an impression after hearing him talk.

The woman's son was killed for no reason, and because he was a student, he was taken over by the court, and then several students were killed one after another, but the yamen did nothing.The woman's natal family was originally from the Jianghu, so she entrusted various connections to seek justice from the Jianghu people in order to give justice to her son, and at worst, the murderer will pay for her life.

It was this matter that He Ningwen had settled in Changzhou earlier. He pretended to be one of the deceased scholars, and led out the mastermind behind the scenes to Shi Yan's people to deal with the aftermath.

Thinking of this, Shi Yan turned his head to look at He Ningwen again, and remained silent. The Jinghu Li family can be regarded as a well-known and decent family, but this son did such a thing of pretending to be someone else's robbery, it was really a waste of effort.

Although he didn't say anything, Jin Lian continued to report: "Chai Gong's maid named Yanliu led him into the side room in the backyard. There was already a waiter waiting in the house. The three of them had a dispute before they entered the house. It didn't take long. They paused again, and then discussed what they were plotting. They were vigilant and careful, and the subordinates could not know the details. The waiter seemed to have martial arts skills, and the subordinates were worried that things would change, so they reported it first. The subordinates dare not act rashly, please forgive me..."

Shi Yan slightly raised his hand, stopped the routine self-effacement pleading, and said, "No need to repeat. The waiter is a child with a double bun and has an old face?"

"Exactly... Aren't they the accomplices of Li Lanchao?" Jin Lian added thoughtfully.

"No." Shi Yan recalled the incident in front of the Chai Mansion, "When I arrived at the Chai Mansion, I encountered that counterfeit fighting with the servant boy. If I hadn't made a move, Li Lanchao would have been restrained. I'm not familiar with Li Lanchao...if that counterfeit...that maid..." Shi Yan stopped talking suddenly, and his gaze once again fell on He Ningwen, who was as elegant as a mist like a crane.

What the maid took away under the name of "He Ningwen" was a counterfeit, and the dispute between the maid and the counterfeit was only about the name "He Ningwen".

Since Li Lanchao was able to reach an agreement with them, it must be to the detriment of He Ningwen.

He Ningwen understood his concerns, and exchanged a glance with Shi Yan, they both raised their breath and flew away, swift as the wind, and disappeared in front of Jin Lian's eyes in a flash.

"Less..." Jin Lian opened his mouth helplessly and hurriedly followed.

……

The Difeng Banquet is located outside the city, but it can be regarded as an important place full of crowds.This matter changed in vain, and the two of them must not take it lightly. When they arrived at the Chai Mansion, the voices were already raging, and Shi Yan followed the impression he had made before noon to go to the backyard of the Moon Cave. He Ningwen was even more sharp-eyed. Seeing Yanliu, he just called Shi Yan out of his mouth, and went straight to the side of the maid without waiting for the other party's reaction.

Yanliu is Chai Wushou's personal maid, she was quite calm at first, but suddenly a big man landed on her side in the clear sky and broad daylight, and in addition to the previous incident, she was terrified.However, the rest of the panicked crowd ignored her even more, running around like headless chickens, so no one cared when He Ningwen "invited" her into the house.

Before she had a seizure, when Shi Yan entered the room, Yanliu obviously recognized Shi Yan's identity, and said with a strange expression: "Master, son, something serious happened to the master."

Yanliu was by Chai Wushou's side, so it was not surprising that she recognized Shi Yan, but her eyes fell on He Ningwen who was silent beside him from time to time.

"I've come all the way to hear about it. Brother Chai and I believe in each other, but I don't want to miss it..." Shi Yan pretended to sigh, followed Yanliu's gaze to He Ningwen, and said, "I'm so tired of brother Qi Zhao's company." I've been through this."

"Qi, Qi Zhao?"

When the maid heard Yan's opening, she looked at He Ningwen consciously, but she was very surprised after hearing it.

He Ningwen looked directly at Yanliu, and said with a warm smile, "Exactly, Qi Zhao at Chiyue Villa."

Yanliu quickly came to his senses, laughed and said, "I've seen Mr. Qi."

Looking at He Ningwen again at this time, Yanliu's expression became the respect that an ordinary maid should have. Shi Yan and He Ningwen looked at each other, and Shi Yan said, "The most urgent thing is what happened to Brother Chai?" , Miss, can you lead me to the place where brother Chai happened?"

Yan Liu looked dignified, nodded heavily, and walked sideways to the backyard: "My lord, please follow me. Since the accident happened to the master, people in the house are not at ease. Since the son is an old friend of the master, the servant girl should do her best to teach that villain to kill. life for a life."

She was obviously very familiar with the Chai Mansion, she walked sideways and chatted with Shi Yan all the way, but she was still able to walk steadily without any accidents.

These words were earnest, and although Shi Yan was wary, he was really worried about his friend who had never met, and he spoke with more sincerity: "It's natural."

Turning around a corridor, walking into the courtyard, you can see a dead body lying in the open room, Shi Yan quickly stepped into the room, but He Ningwen followed slowly behind Yanliu:

"Ma'am, how did you know that the villain who killed Mr. Chai was He Ningwen?"

He didn't say a word all the way, but at the moment when he made a sudden sound, Yanliu was not frightened. She looked at He Ningwen Shi Shiran, as if she wanted to get something from those shining eyes.

But Yanliu only glanced at it, then bowed her head and blessed her body: "Master invited Mr. He into the house for a detailed talk, and the maidservant is right outside the door. Unfortunately, the maidservant has no qualifications, so I can't stop him from treading blood to find plums, so I let the master It was such an accident."

He Ning heard the warm voice and said in relief: "The world is impermanent, it's not the girl's fault."

He raised his head slightly, and met Shi Yan's eyes. Shi Yan inspected it and came out again. Before the two of them had time to talk, the wind suddenly broke out.

The shadow of the whip roared from the eaves, mixed with murderous intent and ruthlessness, the strike was sharp, and it went straight to He Ningwen's neck.

No one made a sound, Shi Yan's palm shook, and the clanking iron fan flew out to block the attack of the long whip with a swish.He Ningwen raised her hand and grabbed the flustered Yanliu and was about to retreat when suddenly the maid grabbed the dagger from her sleeve and was about to stab her in the chest.

Her face became ferocious like a ghost: "The surname is He, pay for your life."

In the shouting, the light of the knife flashed across everyone's eyes like a white rainbow, but He Ningwen didn't move, as if he didn't know how to avoid the blade that was about to die.

Seeing that the white knife was about to pierce into her clothes, Yan Liu felt her hand being held loose, but He Ningwen disappeared in front of her eyes.

Instead, the servant boy lurking in the corner and his long whip slammed fiercely. After all, Yanliu didn't know martial arts, so he threw the dagger in a panic, not wanting to accidentally injure the servant boy.

With a sound of "clang", the dagger fell to the ground, Shi Yan held his folding fan, and the sharp fan bones pointed directly at the servant boy's pupils, and if he was not careful, he would be dripping with blood.He Ning, who was beside her, heard that the hem of her clothes was moving slightly, she stabilized her figure and stared at the two of them.

However, Shi Yan just smiled and said, "Forgive me."

Although he has a good-looking face, he is merciless when he strikes at this moment, even his smiling face is like a threat to Yanliu at this moment.

Seeing that the situation was going downhill, Yanliu gritted her teeth, grabbed the folded fan towards her with one hand, and pushed the servant boy away with the other hand: "Brother, run quickly."

The two obviously had a good understanding, the moment Shi Yan opened his lips slightly, the servant boy flew towards the eaves without hesitation, and He Ningwen raised his eyes to chase after him.

Shi Yan said: "No need, since they are brothers and sisters, she knows a lot."

He Ningwen saw that person disappear from sight and escaped into the silent forest, and she turned her scrutiny eyes back to Yanliu, but she said to Shi Yan: "How do you know it wasn't you who lied to you?" With a look of deep thought, he tapped Yanliu's acupoints and said, "If the two Xiying people want to survive in the sky, they must depend on each other."

Xiying's words made Yanliu's pupils constrict, and she couldn't move due to the acupoints, but the shock on her face had already betrayed everything.

Shi Yan suddenly smiled: "Let me guess, your master didn't know about this either?"

And He Ningwen's eyes turned to stare at Shi Yan, although the latter was smiling, the smile on his face was indifferent.

Xiying was still Dazhao's strong enemy decades ago, and the two countries continued to fight, which can be described as a deep blood feud.Xiying encountered a catastrophe more than ten years ago, and Dazhao pursued and wiped out Xiying in one fell swoop.

It's not a secret, it's just... He Ningwen took a deep look at Shi Yan, and then at Yanliu who was full of hatred.

"It's a pity, you are full of loopholes." Shi Yan smiled lightly and said, "I'm afraid it's because of the rush of time, so you randomly found a dead body to pretend to be Brother Chai?"
