Thought

Xue Yi soon arrived at the foot of the Mushen Academy, looked at the mountain road in front of him, and felt that people were not allowed to be carried up by sedan chairs. He said that he was hardworking, without the help of external forces, to sharpen his heart.

fart!

But exercising is real.

A guard walked up and said something in Xu Xu's ear. Xu Xu struggled for a moment, then walked to Xue Yi's side, "Master, something happened to Mu Nian."

Xue Yi's eyes sharpened, and his tone was dangerous, "I told you to protect people, have you already protected your stomach?"

The dangerous atmosphere enveloped Xu Xu instantly, as if he would be decapitated in the next moment.Xue Yi quickly withdrew his momentum, and changed his previous life, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't have such a subordinate.

just now...

Xue Yi's lips parted slightly, "Let's go to Mu Nian's house."

Xu Xu's body went limp for a moment, and when he realized it, he immediately went to drive Xue Yi's carriage.

After some rapid wind and lightning, Xue Yi and the others came to Mu Nian's house.It's just that the inside is empty, and the marks of swords and swords on the ruined walls are clearly visible.

Especially the large pool of dried blood in front of the house is particularly eye-catching.

Looking far away, the whole village is equally dilapidated.The burnt smell of the fire, and the dark brown blood scattered on the ground.Let people know what happened at a glance.

There were several white flags floating in the air, and occasionally there were ghost coins in the shape of copper coins being blown over by the wind, and the sound of a woman howling mournfully was heard from a distance.

Xue Yi looked ugly, Xu Xu didn't dare to relax, so he asked the guards guarding Mu Nian's home to inquire, only then did he learn that today is the day of Mu Nian's mother's burial, he turned around and told Xue Yi the information he had received.

After getting the result, Xue Yi got on the horse, unhooked the horse, stomped the horse's hooves, and kicked up a cloud of yellow dust.

When I came to a hill, it was said to be a hill, but it was actually just a dirt bag, and several families on it were crying for mourning.Xue Yi reined in his horse and stopped with a "wow".

The soil was not big, so Xue Yi scanned it quickly, and saw a thin figure kneeling in front of the grave in the corner.Xue Yi got off his horse and walked over. Rough stones stood upright, and there was another one beside them, accompanying each other.

Mu Nianmu had a blank face, his eyes were empty.

Xue Yi put his hand on Mu Nian's shoulder, said nothing, but quietly knelt with Mu Nian for a long time.

Mu Nian knew that someone was coming beside him, and also knew that a hand fell on his shoulder. The warm feeling lingered on his shoulder all the time, and then rushed all the way into his heart.

Twisting his stiff neck, Mu Nian pressed his cold cheek against Xue Yi's warm arm, even through the clothes, Xue Yi felt

My whole body warmed up a little, and I said hoarsely, "Xue Yi, my mother is dead, so she blocked me because I..."

"Mother, there is a hole in her stomach, the wind is blowing in, and the blood is rushing out. I can't stop it, no matter how I cover it." Mu Nian put his face on Xue Yi's arm and called out. People cannot see emotions.

"I'm so scared, so scared." Mu Nian's voice was hollow, "Mother is still dead."

Xue Yi's hand hesitated for a moment in the air, then slowly landed on Mu Nian's head, a trace of distress flashed in his eyes.The next moment, he quickly caught Mu Nian who was tilted to one side.

Xue Yi sighed, picked up the man horizontally, and put him on the horse.

In the bedroom, Mu Nian was lying on the bed with a white scarf on his forehead, his face was pale, and he was muttering to himself.Xue Yi was watching carefully on the bed beside him, and Ma Xun was sitting on a small bench beside the bed, frowning tightly.

Ai Zhi and Pang Feng came late, Xu Xu went out to make arrangements, Xue Yi left a servant to guard, got up and went to the next room.

"What did I say before I left?" Xue Yi sat on the red sandalwood chair, touched the pattern on the armrest, and said softly, "Please repeat it to me, shopkeeper Ai and Pang Feng, so that I know what I know."

Ai Zhi yelled in his heart that it was not good, and immediately cried out how miserable he was, "Master doesn't know, those little bastards have lost their minds, and they really fell into the matter of Xishan. The subordinates have tried every means these days Solve it, I neglected Master Mu Nian for a while."

Xue Yi nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, Shopkeeper Ai, it's just that you haven't answered my question yet."

"This..." Ai Zhi's face turned ugly, "Master, Wanxin Trading Company is the old master's hard work, how can the subordinates have the heart to let everything be destroyed? Do you want to destroy the old master for a person who has no relatives or relatives? painstaking effort..."

With a "bang", the splattered porcelain fragments interrupted the indignant Ai Zhi,

Xue Yi casually took the teacup on the other side, with a calm attitude, as if it wasn't him who threw the teacup just now, but someone else, "Master Ai still didn't answer my question."

Ai Zhi stared at the broken tiles on the ground, barely able to see the original shape, his heart felt chills, he felt for a moment that Xue Yi was throwing the teacup at him.

After not seeing an answer for a long time, Xue Yi turned his gaze and landed on Pang Feng who was silent at the side.

Pang Feng knelt down on one knee, "Everything is based on Mu Nian's safety."

"Everything is based on Mu Nian's safety." Xue Yi repeated, smiling, "Then tell me, how did you do it?"

"Master, please punish me." Pang Feng knelt on the ground and admitted his mistake.

Xue Yi got up and walked to Ai Zhi and Pang Feng, "One of you secretly mobilized Xu Xu's subordinates and Pang Feng's secret guards for Xishan's affairs, and the other knew his mission, but let others transfer you without orders. Your own dark guard."

"You guys are really promising." Xue Yi said emotionally, his eyes were full of "appreciation", "I am impressed."

Ai Zhi had lingering fears in his heart, but instead he felt dissatisfied, "Could it be that what the subordinate said is wrong? The master clearly wants to ruin the old master's hard work for Mu Nian."

"A man named Mu Nian didn't know what kind of ecstasy drug he gave the master, which made the master lose his mind." Ai Zhiyou couldn't understand his hatred, "A son of a small peasant family, I don't know what the master is looking for in him? "

Instead of being angry, Xue Yi smiled, "So, you disobeyed my order, but it was for my own good."

"Master Mingjian." Ai Zhi cupped his hands perfunctorily.

"People, it's important to have self-knowledge." Xue Yi smiled, "A long time ago, I told you to unravel the idea of ​​​​Xishan, so don't leave any traces."

"Presumably, after you went back to check, you were moved by the huge interests inside, wishing to think that you could fish in troubled waters and make a fortune while taking advantage of the chaos.",

Xue Yi looked at Ai Zhi with a half-smile, "It's just that I didn't expect the Governor of Xuzhou to come so quickly. Not only did he not get the gold, but he also got his feet stuck."

"I have no choice but to second Xu Xu and Pang Feng's subordinates, so I can barely escape." Xue Yi kicked away the broken porcelain at his feet, "So, the people guarding Mu Nian were transferred away by you for seven days. Seven or eight, there are only three or two kittens left."

"You didn't expect the bandits to appear in Mu Nian's village suddenly, you were caught off guard and exposed everything." Xue Yi backhanded the long sword from Xu Xu's waist and put it on Ai Zhi's neck.

"The most important thing is..." The long sword in Xue Yi's hand approached, and there was a red mark on Ai Zhi's neck, with traces of blood oozing, "The master is weak and the servant is bullying, and he has turned his back."

Ai Zhi carefully looked at the long sword in Xue Yi's hand, "What do you mean, master?"

"What do you mean?" Xue Yi teased her hand intentionally, and she saw Ai Zhi's tense body, "I coveted something that is not my own, do you think you want to be pressed to death in the cradle as soon as possible?"

Ai Zhi had a smile on his face, "Master's words are very true. His subordinates have been in charge of Wanxin Commercial Bank for decades, and they have worked hard without credit."

"So you take Wanxin Commercial Bank as your own." Xue Yi was not threatened or confused by Ai Zhi at all, and tore off Ai Zhi's fig leaf without hesitation.

The smile on Ai Zhi's face disappeared, replaced by a sinister look, and he stretched out his hand to push the long sword around his neck away, "I have worked hard for Wanxin Commercial Bank, from a small shop to its current scale."

"After a lot of suffering and tiredness, I finally had to hold Wanxin Commercial Bank in my hand, and suddenly a freeloader appeared..." Ai Zhi looked at Xue Yi contemptuously, "Pointing fingers, who do you think you are?" ?”

Before Xue Yi could get angry, Xu Xu had a gloomy face, "If it wasn't for the general, do you think you would have survived to this day? The general took care of your food and drink, and sent you to study. I didn't expect you to repay your kindness with revenge."

Ai Zhi sneered, "I have worked hard for him for more than ten years, isn't it enough to repay, maybe he saved me and you just because of a few coolies."

Xu Xu wanted to say something else, but Xue Yi stopped him, "It's useless to say more, a violation is a violation, and the rebellion that has arisen cannot be suppressed."

"You can't get out today."

Ai Zhi sneered, "Do you think I'm unprepared?" As soon as the words fell, there was the sound of swords clashing around the yard, "Soon, you will be reunited underground, including Mu Nian, whom you care about, master."

"The subordinates will definitely arrange the things left by you, master."

Xu Xu looked at Ai Zhi with a complicated expression, took the long sword thrown by Xue Yi, and wanted to take down Ai Zhi.It was just that two people rushed in from the door and blocked Xu Xu's attack.

Seeing the two familiar faces, Xu Xu's expression changed drastically, "You buried a nail under my hand?" Pang Feng on the other side did the same, and his expression was even uglier.

Through the opened door, people wearing the same clothes killed each other, and even because he and Ai Zhi were closest on weekdays, the consequences could be imagined this time, and the loss was heavy.

"Don't worry, it will be over soon."Ai Zhi laughed crazily.

Xue Yi smiled lightly, "I think so too."

"You are still stubborn when you are about to die, but I don't know if your head is also so stubborn." Ai Zhi stared at Xue Yi, as long as this person died, it would be justifiable for him to take over Wanxin Commercial Bank.

"I don't know if my brain is hard or not, but we will soon find out whether yours is hard or not." Xue Yiruo said pointedly.

But Ai Zhi didn't believe it, he just thought it was Xue Yi who refused to admit defeat, and asked a few people around him to protect him to go out, and the rest went to chop off Xue Yi's head.

"Master, what should we do?" Xu Xu protected Xue Yi while dealing with his former subordinates.Pang Feng also behaved in the same way. It was just a face, which was already dark, but now it was so dark that he couldn't see it.

Xue Yi looked at Xu Xu with a smile, and Xu Xu's back felt cold, his hands and feet felt weak.

Weak hands and feet?Xu Xu looked in horror at his suddenly unable to use his hands and feet, and fell to the ground softly, and Pang Feng was in the same situation as him.

Although the few people who attacked didn't know what happened?But the great opportunity should not be missed, and immediately approached Xue Yi with a knife.
