Xiangyang City calmed down temporarily.
The door of Lizhengtang was closed. I don't know if it was a coincidence or because the Ye family's money played a role. In the next two or three days, no people came to the entrance of Lizhengtang or made trouble in front of Ye family.
The Ye family settled down. As the prefect of Xiangyang, Tong Zhiyang was in trouble at the moment.
"What, the madam and the young master are missing?" Tong Zhiyang shot the case.
He and the Madam Tong in the mansion, his married wife looked like "respect each other like a guest", but the people in Xiangyang City knew he was afraid. Tong Zhiyang is even more aware that if it weren't for his wife's maiden promotion, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to do it now. Therefore, for many years, Tong Zhiyang did not dare to defy his wife's order.
However, he couldn't restrain his loneliness. Although he didn't go to the flower house, he kept an outer room on the edge of Xiangyang City. The outer room is cute and lovely, gentle and considerate, much cuter than the tigress at home. In private, Tong Zhiyang also asked his subordinates to call the outside room "Mrs." On the contrary, he is kind and righteous to this outer room. For so many years, he has taken such a big risk to keep him by his side, especially since the main house of the mansion did not give birth to a son, but the outer room gave birth to his incense. Tong Zhiyang was even more reluctant to leave them behind.
He has hidden the mother and son very well, except for his trusted followers, no one else knows. Otherwise, it would not have been hidden from the world for so many years, and now suddenly heard the news of the missing mother and son, and almost didn't call it out in shock.
"What's the matter? Did He find it?" He was the wife of the prefect, thinking of this, Tong Zhiyang was sweating coldly all over his body. If the femme fatale learned about the existence of the mother and son, let alone the outer room, even his son might be killed.
That is his only incense!
The cronies quickly shook their heads and denied: "No! Master, I don't know who the other party is, but he left a letter saying that he borrowed the wife and the young master for a few days and returned it later."
"Unreasonable!" Tong Zhiyang was furious, "What is he who is my person? Is the goods not made?" Tong Zhiyang asked sharply: "What are they looking for? Begging for money? Or are there complaints?"
"This..." The cronies couldn't tell why. If you ask for money, there is no mention of money in the letter. If it is for revenge, kill it on the spot, why keep it. It's like a threat, but I don't know what the threat is. The most important thing is that the existence of the mother and child is so hidden, how did these people find out? Could it be that there is a high-density traitor
"Catch people on my land, I think they are impatient!" Tong Zhiyang snorted and ordered: "Search! Dig the ground three feet, and I will find the lady and the young master!"
The cronies took the order, and saw Tong Zhiyang pause for a while before continuing: "Move down, don't let He's find out."
In the end he throws a rat avoidance device.
…
Jiang Li learned that Tong Zhiyang's outer room, Ruan Suqin, mother and son had settled down, he knew from Ye Mingyu's mouth.
Ye Mingxuan and Ye Minghui still failed to return home, but I don't know if it was because Jiang Li moved out of Jiang Yuanbai's name, Tong Zhiyang didn't dare to treat them bluntly. When Guan and Zhuo went back, the guards who guarded the gate no longer crossed their eyebrows and asked them to go in to see Ye Mingxuan and Ye Minghui.
Although Ye Minghui and the two were in the cell, they were considered clean and not injured. After asking about what happened these days, I was surprised to know that I was sitting next to Jiang Li. I thought that an official Jiao Miss did not ask about world affairs and did not expect the crisis, but it was Jiang Li who saved the Ye family. The precautions and distancing from Jiang Li in the past took most of the time.
The two confessed that the Ye Family should not act rashly these days, just wait for the people from the Weaving Room Ling to come to Xiangyang, but they should prevent someone from behind making calculations. If the Ye Family was really calculated this time, that person would definitely not let it go, and would look for opportunities again.
After the Guan and Zhuo came back, they told the Ye family about these things as they were, and conveyed to Jiang Li the gratitude of the Ye Minghui brothers. Jiang Li smiled and accepted it. It was about seeing the truth in adversity. He had the experience of carrying out things together. The attitude of the Ye family towards Jiang Li was much more affectionate.
Even Ye Rufeng no longer shook his face at Jiang Li, but he was not as amiable as Ye Jiaer.
But because the Ye Minghui brothers were no longer there, Jiang Li's meeting with Mrs. Ye could only be put on hold. It would be even worse if Mrs. Ye learned that Ye Family was in a dangerous situation now, and it would be worse if she was exhausted.
After Ye Mingyu and the others had dispersed, he looked for an opportunity and secretly said to Jiang Li, "The matter has been settled."
"Uncle Ming Yu may promise that he will never be caught by Tong Zhiyang?" Jiang Li asked.
"Of course." Ye Mingyu said, "How can I find my Tibetan skills? Besides, Tong Zhiyang is afraid that his wife will know about this and dare not look for someone with a big fanfare. This is more convenient."
Jiang Li smiled and said, "Then thank you Uncle Mingyu."
"Thank me for what I'm doing," Ye Mingyu said, "This was originally the Ye family's business, but we said that the Ye family should thank you."
"It's all a family, you don't have to be polite." Jiang Li smiled.
This made Ye Mingyu's heart press very hard. Yes, such a clever and outstanding little girl is the niece of their Ye family, and I feel fortunate to think about it. Otherwise, why doesn't he have such a well-behaved niece in Tong Zhiyang Mansion? It's a fate.
The two talked and walked to the gate of the mansion. Ye Zhai was originally located on the most expensive land in Xiangyang City. This street is the richest family in Xiangyang, so there are very few houses on a street, but for large houses, It is very spacious and occupies a lot of space.
At this moment, there was a faint sound of babbling and singing.
Jiang Li said, "Are there still theater troupes here?"
Ye Mingyu spoke to the wall of a nearby mansion courtyard: "The new ones have not seen their owners, but they should be a play idiot. I have seen someone listening to the play in the past few days. Probably his own. Let's be a habit." Ye Mingyu is not surprised. He has been in the world for many years, and he has not seen any eccentric people. It is already commonplace to listen to the opera troupe singing in the house.
When Jiang Li heard this, her heart moved. I thought of it immediately.
Ji Heng is now in Xiangyang. He loves to listen to dramas, and he has no money to afford the house here. It is mysterious and unpredictable. Is it Ji Heng
Let alone Ji Heng, Jiang Li stared at the blue stone bricks on the courtyard wall and sighed in his heart. She was sure about all the time. The new master Ye Mingyu said was Ji Heng.
Even if this is the most expensive land in Xiangyang City, Ji Heng does not have to move here. With his status, no good house can be found. It happened to be separated by a wall of Ye family, it was really hard not to think that Ji Heng came for her.
Does this person want to monitor himself
There was a sudden anger in Jiang Li's heart. So far, she knows that Ji Heng and You Xiangcheng are not like the seemingly drawn swords, and they have an unclear relationship. But Ji Heng didn't clearly state which side she would stand on. Her future enemy was Cheng Wang Wu Di. If Ji Heng was on Cheng Wang's side, her chances of winning were small and pitiful.
Why is it that they will always be suppressed by greater power, even if they become the first assistant of the dynasty, they still have to bow their heads and have to forsake their plans? Or is it that all the traitorous officials in the DPRK are all embarrassed and embarrassed
Her heart was cold, and her eyes were astonishingly bright.
Ye Mingyu didn't notice Jiang Li's fault, only stretched his waist and said to Jiang Li, "I have to explain something to my brothers, A Li, you can just walk around the house. If you are boring, go to Jia'er. , You two little girls, you have a lot of congenial conversations."
Jiang Li nodded.
After Ye Mingyu left on horseback, Jiang Li did not return home immediately. She stood at the door, fixedly staring at the courtyard wall for a while, listening to the looming opera sound floating from the courtyard wall, and took a slow step.
…
Unlike Ye's house, where the atmosphere is bright, the door of this neighboring house looks strangely solemn. The color is mainly black and white, and there is no lantern at the door. Jiang Li walked to the door and saw that the doorkeeper was a pretty little brother.
When he saw this little brother's face, Jiang Li was able to conclude that the owner was indeed Ji Heng. Otherwise, whose concierge could have such a beautiful appearance, and such a beautiful appearance, placed in the small hall, would be one of the best.
Seeing Jiang Li coming, the concierge opened the door without saying anything, and said "Miss Jiang Er" as if he had known Jiang Li would come to visit. Needless to say, this is Ji Heng's explanation again.
Jiang Li doesn't like people who play with people's hearts, like Ji Heng, who controls everything between applause, she doesn't like the enchanting evil that can penetrate people's hearts. Therefore, instead of feeling the joy of being regarded as a guest, I feel a little uneasy.
After entering the door, another beautiful maidservant came to lead the way. Jiang Li saw that the house was surrounded by no decorations, black bricks and white stones, and was extremely murderous. It's hard to imagine that such a charming and charming person like Ji Heng would live here, but when I thought about it, it seemed to match. The color of his appearance can make poppies bloom out of the suicide. If the beauty is added to the beauty, it will be like ten miles of red dust, and it will be slightly frivolous.
When I walked to the courtyard, I saw from a distance in the square courtyard, there was a high platform, and there was a wave of eyes on the stage. But there was only one spectator in the audience. The young man in red was leaning on the bench, his back was falling, and he was sipping tea in a leisurely manner.
The maidservant smiled and said, "My lord, Miss Jiang Er is here."
Jiang Li stepped forward slowly.
Ji Heng didn't look back, as if he was addicted to the scene, and waited until Jiang Li walked up to him.
"Duke Guo listened to the play and heard that Xiangyang was coming." Jiang Li smiled, wondering if it was a mockery.
"They came by themselves." Ji Heng smiled nonchalantly. Jiang Li looked at the stage, and saw that although Hua Dan's face on the stage was painted with oil, it was difficult to distinguish her appearance, but her slim figure and soft singing voice. You can see that it was the little Taohong who sang "Jiu'er Case" when Jin Mantang sang in the first place.
How did Jin Mantang come to Xiangyang? Jiang Li glanced at Xiao Taohong on the stage. She kept singing with the nipples around her, but the affection in the corner of her eyes was undoubtedly facing Ji Heng.
Jiang Li suddenly realized that Ji Heng could allow Jin Mantang to sing in a place like Wangxianlou, and Ji Heng could also hold Hongjinmantang, a troupe that had just taken root in Yanjing. For the people of Jin Mantang, it is much faster to hold Ji Heng's thigh firmly than to sing well and work hard. As for the little pink, such a powerful gold master, such a young and beautiful girl, it is always easy for girls to fall.
But... Jiang Li felt a little bitter. Before they decided to lean on the big tree Ji Heng, they probably forgot what kind of person Ji Heng was. They would not make such a hasty decision if they had ever inquired about how the Acacia Banquet, who was well-known as Yanjing, fell.
Ji Heng is not a kind-hearted person, he is cruel and unfeeling, wicked. If anyone is thinking about his calculations, he may not be able to cry even if he finally cries calculated by him.
Xiao Taohong on the stage sang "Jiange Hearing Bells", and she was singing: "It is the heartbroken people who hear the heartbroken sound! It is like this not beautiful ringtone, not beautiful rain. How can I cut off the constant lovesickness, the constant cut Love. The window lattice knocked on people and my heart was broken, and the sound of shaking and falling wood made my dream difficult. When the screams and horror sounded from the eaves, the cold was born from the bottom of the bed..."
Jiang Li looked at Ji Heng and said, "Guo Duke seems to like to listen to tragedies."
There was "Jiu'er Case" before, and "Jiange Wenling" afterwards. These are so miserable and miserable scenes. Could it be that Ji Heng couldn't understand others, and didn't even listen to the scenes.
"I don't like to watch comedies." Ji Heng played with the folding fan in his hand and smiled: "Too fake."
Jiang Li stared at him, not knowing what to say for a while. Ji Heng thinks that comedy is too fake, and some clues can also be glimpsed in this sentence.
What kind of person is he
Throwing away all these crazy thoughts in her mind, Jiang Li said again: "I just didn't expect that Grandpa Guo would live near Ye's house," she said with some jokes: "I don't know, I thought it was for me. ."
"If I say, I am here for you?" Ji Heng asked rhetorically.
Jiang Li was stunned.
There is still a relaxed smile on the corner of his lips, and his eyes are like deep and shallow amber, passionate and thin, more attractive than gold, jade, pearl and stone, which makes people want to stop.
"Then I can only stay away." Jiang Li said lightly.
Ji Heng laughed silently. He propped his chin with a fan handle, with an evil innocence in his eyes. He said, "Ms. Jiang Er knows the principle of wise protection."
"The weak are always frightening every step of the way to survive."
"Second young lady don't need to be presumptuous," he narrowed his eyes. "The weak will not set traps to lead the emperor into the urn."
Whenever I was with Ji Heng, they always played against each other. This was not easy, and Jiang Li was also very confused. He obviously had nothing to do with his own life, but because of a series of blunders, he was repeatedly caught together. Now it was impossible to avoid it—he had begun to doubt himself.
Gotta go step by step.
Jiang Li smiled and said, "After talking for so long, isn't Grandpa Guo tired? Xiao Taohong's voice is hard to find, so don't let it down."
She turned her head very rough and blunt, but her attitude was natural and gentle, as if she didn't realize it. Ji Heng couldn't help but glanced at her more, then turned his head with a smile, and said, "It's very true."
Seeing that Ji Heng finally stopped talking to Jiang Li, the little Taohong on the stage turned to her, and immediately sang more vigorously.
Jiang Li looked at it and found it funny, saying that the most brilliant actor sang a good show, and he had to enter the show before he could get affection, but Xiao Taohong was singing the show in her mouth, and her eyes were clearly Ji Heng. It can be considered absent-minded, but the girl is full of hearts, I am afraid that she will become muddy, because she does not know this beauty in red, who is used to only watching theaters and never enters the theater.
"Poor your fragrant soul scattered with the wind, but it made my blood and tears flow like rain. I was in danger, staring staring eyes with squeaky teeth, trembling jade body's bleak face."
The little pink babbles and sings, and the wind brought by the sleeves also carries a bit of miserable meaning. Jiang Li heard a bit of killing intent.
She thought she had heard it wrong. This is a tragedy like a fake replacement, and her miserable singing is true. But Jiang Li probably feels especially the subtle emotions of people now, so from this misery, Feel a trace of coldness that is not easily noticeable.
She raised her eyes to Xiao Taohong.
Little Taohong still indifferently gave Ji Heng's tender and sweet eyes, those eyes were full of movement, so pitiful, but Jiang Li felt that Xiao Taohong locked Ji Heng like a wild beast.
Her spine couldn't help being straightened, and her fingers curled up in her sleeves, as if she had smelled some kind of conspiracy.
"Watching you can neither save you nor help you, how can the grief be rewarded and how can I treat Qing. The saddest one is once a year, and I will see Ewha a miserable situation from now on."
When the last sentence of "love" was sung, Xiao Taohong's voice suddenly became sharp, and people couldn't help frowning. Jiang Li's heart tightened. Before she could react, she saw the little pink in a white costume suddenly jumped up from the stage, his sleeves fluttered, a silver light in his palm, and came straight toward Ji Heng!
It was the assassin who assassinated Ji Heng!
Jiang Li didn't have time to exclaim, he saw Xiaosheng Lao Dan, who was playing with Xiao Taohong on the top of the stage, suddenly all appeared from all directions, all of them were fierce and evil, where there was the vivid appearance of just singing.
This Jin Mantang turned out to be a facade made by an assassin. People who wanted to come and knew Ji Heng well enough. Knowing that Ji Heng watched and listened to an opera, he formed such a troupe, but what he sang was a Hongmen Banquet.
It's really a disaster!
Assassins rushed in from all directions, and the murderous little peach rose on the face. Jiang Li was inevitable. Even if she was not the other party’s target, Jiang Li knew that once Ji Heng died, the other party would not forgive him. Pass her. Besides, the sword has no eyes, which means that Ji Heng is not dead, but it is possible to kill her by mistake.
She was born again, step by step, but not because of such a ridiculous misunderstanding, she died here!
Jiang Li suddenly touched the whistle in his sleeve, but the little pink was actually a martial arts beyond imagination, and saw that there were several daggers hidden in the sleeves, and it was already close to his eyes!
at this time.
The eyes lit up, and from the diagonal thorns, a peony suddenly bloomed.
The dagger was immersed in the gorgeous peony, and it seemed to be amazed by this peony, and he didn't go any further.
Jiang Li glanced intently, that was not a peony, it was Ji Heng's folding fan. He unfolded the folding fan and blocked Xiao Taohong's blow.
The next moment, she felt her body lighter, Ji Heng held her back and brought her back. The beautiful gold wire folding fan stretched across her chest, revealing a stunning and complete pattern.
Xiao Taohong was also taken aback.
Her sharpened iron dagger was easily blocked by that gorgeous folding fan, as if her attack could not withstand a single blow. And the peony on the gold wire folding fan, the petals curled and stretched, so beautiful, as if laughing at her insignificance.
Jiang Li was in shock.
Rao is how calm and calm she is, the moment of life and death, especially the inexplicable situation of today's robbery, how can she not smile as before.
The one who smiled right was Ji Heng.
He folded the fan horizontally in front of him, and the bright red robe hit the floor, sprinkled beautifully. In the dark outside sunlight, it seemed that he was getting brighter in this dark color, and even the peony on the folding fan was in full bloom.
His hand was emptied behind Jiang Li. Jiang Li was not as tall as him. In this way, when he looked from a distance, he seemed to be held in his arms. As long as he lowered his head, his chin could touch the top of Jiang Li's head. However, he did not look at Jiang Li at all, with a pair of long and narrow phoenix eyes with a light smile, with endless squiggly colors, looking at Xiao Taohong.
Jiang Li turned his head to look at Xiao Taohong.
The woman whose face was covered with ink naturally couldn't see her expression, only her eyes were as cold as iron, and she was fascinating when she was singing when she was no longer seen.
"Who sent you?" Ji Heng asked softly.
His voice is also very soft, as if he is facing a friend, or can't bear to disturb a beautiful woman, with infinite pity.
Little Taohong didn't speak.
"I don't know if you don't tell me." The smile on the corner of his mouth, with a strange bewitching, said: "Speak out, I will let you end a bit easier."
Jiang Li felt a chill in her heart, saying such terrible words in such an intimate tone, this person is really terrifying.
At this moment, watching the actor approaching around him, Jiang Li suddenly realized one thing, why there was no guard in such a big mansion. She would definitely not believe that Ji Heng had no guards.
Just thinking about it, Xiao Taohong snorted coldly, and rushed towards Ji Heng together with the other actors around!
There are powerful enemies in all directions. It's not running away, neither is staying. Jiang Li's heart slammed, and simply rushed to Ji Heng's side. She believed that a cunning person like Ji Heng would definitely not wait to die on the spot. There will always be a way, but she can't hold Ji Heng and leave her back to Xiao Taohong. If Ji Heng is pushed out as a meat target, that would be too wrong!
In a daze, Ji Heng seemed to laugh, and Jiang Li felt that her body was also moving with Ji Heng suddenly. She saw Ji Heng behind, a white-faced actor was raising his sword and heading behind Ji Heng. Stabbed.
"Be careful!" Jiang Li exclaimed.
This was not because she couldn't bear to see a red heart, but because of her own sake. If Ji Heng died here, she wouldn't be able to live. Just as he was about to put his hand into his sleeve again, he saw that the white-faced man holding the sword suddenly stopped, as if he had been tapped in an acupuncture point, a red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he slowly fell on his back.
A silver long arrow passed through his chest.
"Silling." Jiang Li looked up in the direction and saw that on the eaves of the four corners of the house, there were guards in black at the corners of the house. They were holding bows and arrows, their faces were expressionless, and their men kept on, just "swish swish". Of the arrow.
The house yard suddenly sounded one after another screams.
But this scream was much smaller than that of ordinary people, so no neighbors around had noticed it. Jiang Li guessed that the people in Jin Mantang were all dead men, and those who had received special training had less movement before dying than those next to them.
Xiao Taohong wanted to assassinate Ji Heng. She never expected Ji Heng's arrangement outside. Seeing her friends fall one by one, she was uneasy, but she also got red eyes and rushed towards Ji Heng desperately.
Jiang Li sighed in her heart.
I can't see Xiao Taohong's expression, but from her behavior, Xiao Taohong's heart is upset. However, no one really thought that the people from Jin Mantang came to assassinate Ji Heng's dead man. Xiao Taohong did a scene of exquisite exquisiteness, but Ji Heng had never thought that Ji Heng had seen a lot of scenes. The truth was still false, and she could see it very clearly.
The people of Jin Mantang thought they were doing a play for Ji Heng, and Ji Heng really regarded Jin Mantang as a play.
The beautiful, tired and coquettish young man, his movements were extraordinarily graceful, not as quick and swift as the little pink, but like a hunting beast, he approached the prey unhurriedly. Jiang Li didn't even see them fighting, but felt that Ji Heng easily used the gold wire folding fan to split the dagger in Xiao Taohong's hand.
He did not hesitate to interrupt Xiao Taohong's limbs and remove her chin.
Jiang Li only felt cold all over her body.
Even if she died once, even if she was tortured by Princess Yongning and Shen Yurong, she felt nothing like Ji Heng, and even enjoyed being in such a bloody environment. Jiang Li couldn't be like him, she just wanted to leave.
Xiao Taohong was restrained, like a jade beauty, at this moment, she collapsed to the ground without an image, like a pig and dog that was slaughtered. With the situation in front of her, she couldn't even commit suicide.
Ji Heng took two steps forward and walked in front of Xiao Taohong. Xiao Taohong's body was covered with blood and mud, but Ji Heng's gorgeous robe corners did not touch the slightest dust.
He is still aloof, still a spectator who can't eat the fireworks in the world.
"I gave you a chance." Ji Heng leaned over slightly, as if very pitying, and said softly: "Unfortunately you refused."
A trace of fear flashed across Xiao Taohong's eyes, and Jiang Li could see clearly.
Even for the dead, the final reliance is because there is no fear of death, but no fear of death does not mean that there is no plan for things other than death. When they lose their last trump card—the end of their lives arbitrarily, what they have to face is something ten thousand times more terrifying than death.
This is the truth since ancient times.
Jiang Li recognized that the guard named Wen Ji came over and said to Ji Heng: "My lord, there are ten people left."
The fear in Xiao Taohong's eyes is even worse. Under such circumstances, Ji Heng can still leave ten live mouths intact. This is really terrifying. The most important thing is, what ten live mouths mean. It means that there are more opportunities to take advantage of, and human nature cannot withstand the test. The same ten dead men enter the private prison, and there are far more truths that can be pried out by the same ten dead men entering the private prison.
Ji Heng will not let go of this opportunity.
"You guys sing well." Ji Heng smiled, "It's a pity."

Only the true color of peony can move the capital when the flowers bloom!
I really like the grandfather of the country using the peony gold wire folding fan as a weapon! handsome!
