Li Bushang looked at Wang Shuxing and Sun Jia with a gloomy face, and remained silent.
And the expressions on the faces of these two students were also very disturbed. Although they were stiff-mouthed just now and refused to admit that it was the people from the academy who did it, but think about it carefully, if such a thing happened in the academy, can there be anyone else
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside.
"what happened?"
When they heard this, they hurried over and opened the door, only to see Jian Ruocheng walking in with a few students carrying lanterns.
Sun Jia hastily leaned over and saluted: "Master."
Jian Ruocheng walked in, looked at Qian Xiuwen on the bed, and said, "What are you doing? Why are you making a noise?"
Sun Jia said: "Master, someone wanted to kill Qian Xiuwen just now."
"What!?"
Jian Ruocheng was startled, and hurried to the bedside to take a look, Sun Jia hurriedly said, "But he's fine."
"oh?"
"It was Mr. Li who saved Qian Xiuwen. The murderer used this hidden weapon."
He pointed to the dart on the table.
Jian Ruocheng was relieved to hear that he was fine, and then glanced at Qian Xiuwen on the bed, then turned around, and saw the dart on the table, his brows were furrowed.
Wang Shuxing said: "This dart is poisoned."
The students around were all taken aback: "What's going on?"
"Someone wants to assassinate Qian Xiuwen? Who is it?"
"this is too scary."
While everyone was terrified, their eyes fell on Li Bushang again, and Jian Ruocheng slowly walked in front of him, his eyes looked complicated: "It was you who saved Qian Xiuwen."
Li Bushang glanced at him, but said nothing.
But Jian Ruocheng said: "Thanks to you this time—"
However, before he finished speaking, a cold voice suddenly came from the door: "Are you sure, he is saving people?"
Upon hearing this voice, Zhu Chengxuan frowned.
When everyone looked back, it was Xia Fuxiu who came over with a few students, carrying lanterns in their hands, and they were patrolling the night.
Jian Ruocheng said: "Xia Fuxiu, what you said just now meant—"
Xia Fuxiu came in, glanced at the darts on the table, sneered, then turned to look at Wang Shuxing and Sun Jia: "Which of you saw the murderer with your own eyes?"
"I-"
The two of them looked at each other, suddenly at a loss for words.
Indeed, neither man saw any killers.
Seeing that they were speechless, Xia Fuxiu asked again: "Tell me again, what happened just now, and what did you see?"
Wang Shuxing hesitated for a moment, and then said: "It's getting dark, and we are all a little sleepy. At this time, I heard this Mr. Li asking 'who is it', and when we woke up, we saw——his hand stopped took this dart."
Xia Fuxiu immediately sneered, and said, "So, you don't actually know what happened. It's possible that he took out the dart himself and pretended to be intercepted by him, and then shouted for you to see." When he arrives, he becomes a hero who saves people, let you no longer be wary of him, right?"
"this-"
Wang Shuxing and Sun Jia were immediately speechless.
When the students around heard these words, they suddenly realized: "No wonder—"
"I just said, how could he be so kind."
"Yeah, they are obviously going to kill Qian Xiuwen during the day, how can they save him?"
Hearing Xia Fuxiu's words, Zhu Chengxuan hurriedly said: "Brother Li is not such a person, so he wouldn't do this!"
Xia Fuxiu said coldly: "You think that this little trick can deceive us into trusting you, and then let you do whatever you want. You think too simply."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to Jian Ruocheng and said, "Master, it seems that it is not good to let young students do this. They have too little experience and are easily deceived."
"..."
Jian Ruocheng was silent for a while, and said, "Then you mean to minor."
Xia Fuxiu said: "What I mean is, let the older people do it. Mr. Su Er, Xie Weisheng, you come to guard this place."
As soon as the words fell, two students walked in.
Although he is a student, he obviously looks much older than the students around him, and he is tall, more like a martial artist than a student.
They saluted Xia Fuxiu and Jian Ruocheng, "Yes."
Jian Ruocheng looked at them, and then said, "That's fine. Wang Shuxing, Sun Jia, you guys go down and rest."
The two of them hesitated, but they couldn't help it. They could only bow their heads and say, "Yes."
After speaking, he backed out with the other students.
Jian Ruocheng took another look at the people in the room, including Qian Xiuwen who was on the bed, and said, "You two should be more careful, and don't have any more accidents."
"yes."
After saying this, he also left with Xia Fuxiu.
Zhu Chengxuan frowned, anxious. He wanted to say something, but before he left, Xia Fuxiu turned his head and showed a cold smile at them. Immediately, he swallowed everything he wanted to say went back.
Looking back, seeing those two students, I just felt uneasiness welling up in my heart.
The door was closed.
In the room, there was only one wounded unconscious on the bed, and the four of them. They were relatively silent, but there was an indescribable murderous aura, which slowly grew out of this silence.
Zhu Chengxuan became more and more uneasy.
At this moment, another gust of wind blew in from the window, and suddenly blew out the candlestick on the table.
Suddenly, the whole room was plunged into darkness.
|
The noisy wind also made people on the other side of Jinling City unable to sleep.
Outside the gate of the main hall of Yikun Palace, the lanterns under the eaves were shaking, reflecting Zhu Feng's deep eyes even more cloudy and cloudy. Jin Yiwei, who knelt in front of him and reported the situation, lowered his head and did not dare to say anything .
That oppressive aura is really terrifying.
Zhu Feng was silent for a while, and then said: "So tonight, they were also attacked?"
"yes."
The Jin Yiwei said in a deep voice: "Twice accidents happened in the room where King Wei and Commander Li were. The first time seemed to be a false alarm, but the second time, someone really did something."
"Who are you going to kill?"
"It looks like they want to kill the injured student to silence him."
"..."
"However, the emperor can rest assured that with the protection of Commander Li, His Royal Highness King Wei is safe and sound."
Zhu Feng didn't speak, just put his hands behind his back and looked at the darkness in front of him. The heavy night seemed to hang a thick black curtain in front of his eyes, making it impossible to break free.
It seems that Nanyan is right.
The target of those people was not King Wei, or in other words, the target of their actions was not King Wei.
Killing a student would cause more harm to oneself than assassinating the King of Wei, and it would be easier to stir up unrest in the entire Jinling.
He was silent for a while, and then said: "Then, what about them now?"
