Chapter 109 Self questioning and HonestyThat's

What kind of thing?

Lv Xian sat opposite Xie Wei, and those few words were not very neat. He struggled to read them and couldn't help but lean forward to lean his head over and look closely. "What was written, what code was left behind?"

However, just as he leaned his head towards Xie Wei, Xie Wei lifted his eyes and gave him a faint glance.

Under my hands, I naturally collected the stack of silver bills that had been pieced together.

Lv Xianmu was stunned.

Xie Wei explained, "It wasn't written for you."

"..."

A hint of suspicion suddenly appeared on Lv Xian's face, and he secretly glanced at the neatly reorganized silver banknotes.

With a frown, he exclaimed astonishingly, "You Fangyin wrote a love letter to you?"

"..."

A dog cannot spit out ivory from its mouth.

The haze that had previously enveloped Xie Wei dissipated with a smile that melted like ice and snow. Xie Wei's whole body seemed to have returned to its former independent and calm demeanor, only saying, "No, it's not."

L ü Xian said, "I guess not. Even Miss You is getting married, and she doesn't have any interaction with you, so she shouldn't be writing anything for you at this time. So, which girl wrote a love letter to you?"

Xie Wei frowned slightly and said, "What kind of love words are not?"

L ü Xian's gaze did not shift away from the stack of silver bills that he still held in his hand, and a sharp look of scrutiny appeared in his eyes: "It wasn't written for you by the girl, it's of great significance. Why can't I read it?"

The 50000 silver banknotes found on the Tianjiao secret pile that directly obeyed Gongyi Cheng contained the 15000 taels he had previously paid to You Fangyin. These fifteen 1000 taels of silver banknotes stacked together actually contained hidden characters.

The whole matter is related to the safety of the Marquis's Mansion of Courage and Perseverance.

After reading this message, Xie Wei seemed to have calmed down, as if the matter was under control and there was no big deal.

However, Lv Xian's feeling was exactly the opposite of Xie Wei's.

It was not this incident itself that made him feel too scared, but what made him feel uneasy and alert was the state that Xie Wei had just revealed in that moment, a state he felt should not have appeared in Xie Wei.

Xie Wei was really stopped by him.

This kind of handwriting, this tone, and the little rascal he had seen before, even without a single signature, he knew who left the word and who was behind You Fangyin, so he finally felt relieved.

Anli said that he should show this matter and this word to Lv Zhaoyin.

However

He didn't actually want to.

With both eyes raised, Xie Wei met the gaze cast from the opposite side without bias. Xie Wei was also a keen person, so as not to be unaware of the underlying meaning of Lv Xian's words just now.

Lv Xian said, "Do you know what I admire the most about you after knowing each other for so many years?"

Xie Wei has not spoken yet.

L ü Xian tugged at the corner of his lips, but there was not much smile in his eyes: "It's not your cleverness, nor is it your humiliation - it's because you don't get close to women."

However, Xie Wei went through it from beginning to end and didn't feel that he had done anything wrong. Ning Er was his student, but neither the character nor the painting was very impressive.

And

Ning Er is different from others after all.

He only wanted to explore the truth and falsehood of this little girl, and also wanted to restrain her and teach her not to lead her astray. He asked himself that he had no ulterior motives, let alone any sexual desires. When she was a student or a junior, he felt that Lv Xian was a worrisome person.

Xie Wei pressed the stack of silver bills on his hand, but still had no intention of returning them to Lv Xian. He said, "But a little trick, it's not worth playing around with. It would be a big laugh to show it to others. You have to worry too much."

Lv Xian couldn't help but judge the truth of this statement.

But looking at Xie Wei's expression, there was nothing unusual about him. At that moment, he began to suspect that he was being petty and suspicious. "However, it's better to think more than to think less. It seems that the trouble this time has been solved, but did you see who the letter fell into, or did the other party express it in the message? If it was the latter, did you inform others in advance of our actions?"

"..."

Xie Wei's fingers, pressed against the silver note, froze for a moment as if they were not there.

Upon seeing it, Lv Xian immediately raised his eyebrows.

He had known Xie Wei for quite some time, so much so that he could tell at a glance at the subtle expression on the other person's face that he had probably poked something, but the wise man should have stopped at this point.

Looking out the pitch black window, Lv Xian said, "You should go back now."

Xie Wei stood up to bid farewell.

Before leaving, he also took the 15000 taels of silver with him.

Lv Xian didn't stop and delivered it to the door.

However, as Xie Wei boarded the carriage back to the mansion, he leaned back in the carriage and stared at the ink stains on the stack of silver bills in his hand, thinking for a long time.

When he arrived at the entrance of the mansion, he got off the car.

Dao Qin noticed that his expression was somewhat off.

Xie Wei lowered his eyes, but he didn't know what was on his mind. Suddenly, he smiled and said, "Tomorrow, go to the Jiang Mansion and ask Ning Er to come and learn the qin. Although you don't need to go to the Fengchen Palace, you must not neglect your studies."

*

Zhou Yinzhi felt horrified.

Jiang Xuening managed to gather enough money for the afternoon, and it's hard to be willing to give such a large sum of money directly to others. Moreover, these people are still hidden stakes left by the secret of the Heavenly Sect. Even if they can't intercept this money, they can still make a difference by catching them.

So when revealing the news to Xie Wei, she also made secondary preparations.

Trading with the other party in the evening was intentional.

The ambush in the city was too conspicuous, so he asked Zhou Yinzhi to find another name and mobilize some Jinyiwei to ambush outside the city gate. They even released the two Tianjiao rebels they had arrested earlier. They just waited for this group to come out of the city and intercept them to see if they could have the luck to retrieve these 50000 taels.

After waiting all night, no one left the city.

The next morning when Zhou Yinzhi arrived at the yamen, he heard his colleagues mention that the city gate guard had shot and killed several members of the Tianjiao Rebellion last night. It seemed that they had paid the guard to get out of the city, but they didn't expect that the city gate guard was deceiving and waiting for them to fall into the trap.

During those days, Zhou Yinzhi had dealt with the chaotic party.

The Jianghu people are loyal but shrewd. They know that their eyeliner have been caught through clues. Then they take half a letter to force them to obey and talk about a bold business. How could they fall into the trap of buying the gate guards?

Unless the person they are in contact with is someone they trust!

But there was a twist in it.

The other party betrayed them and instead tricked and killed them.

The things involved inside must be complex, and Zhou Yinzhi's understanding of the internal workings of the Heavenly Sect was not clear enough. However, upon hearing this news, he was able to perceive it clearly. Behind this matter, besides his planning with Jiang Xuening, there seemed to be a thick and unpredictable shadow.

Larger and more secretive.

It has to be said that at that moment, what he thought of was what Jiang Xuening had instructed him to reveal the news earlier: would it be related to the renowned Master Xie, whom he had never dealt with before?

Zhou Yinzhi once again felt that in this misty and turbulent capital, he was just a small wave stirred up by the surging sea, no different from the sand particles carried away by the waves lying on the shallow beach.

Entering the world reveals the vastness of the world.

After becoming a wealthy member of the Royal Guards and establishing a firm foothold in the yamen, he had actually begun to consider what else a insignificant little girl like Jiang Xuening could bring to him after the downfall of the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion?

However, this time he found that——

Even this little girl seems to have not yet reached the true bottom.

Zhou Yinzhi once again arrived at the Jiang Mansion, but he put aside his airs in front of his subordinates, just like when he first arrived in the capital and was still working at the Jiang Mansion, appearing humble and patient.

Jiang Xuening didn't wait for news from Zhou Yinzhi last night and was still worried this morning.

Unexpectedly, just as he was thinking, he came over.

She asked, "How are you doing?"

Zhou Yinzhi recounted last night's situation and what he heard in the yamen this morning.

He observed Jiang Xuening's expression.

Surprisingly, Jiang Xuening did not seem as solemn as he had imagined. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief as expected. However, later on, he frowned again, as if adding a hint of hidden worry while letting go of his worries.

Zhou Yinzhi tentatively asked, "Do you want to investigate secretly?"

Jiang Xuening supported the corners of the carved rosewood table and slowly sat down, shaking her head almost immediately. "Don't investigate," she said

At this time, the more you do, the more mistakes you make.

She said, "I already know the situation. You go back and don't care about anything from now on."

However, Zhou Yinzhi felt that her speech today was more profound and unpredictable than any previous one, to the extent that he exhibited rare hesitation.

Jiang Xuening said, "Is there anything else?"

Zhou Yinzhi finally restrained his mind. Although he wanted to ask what was hidden behind this matter, he remembered that she had also inexplicably revealed her intention to infiltrate the Yongyi Marquis's mansion that day. She was a bit afraid of the little girl in front of her, and was afraid of making her unhappy with her voice. He said, "It's nothing, just a little unexpected. Then I'll go back first, and the second girl will send someone to find me. If I'm not in the government office, I can find Wei Xi."

Jiang Xuening remembered the blushing young man she saw in Zhou Yinzhi's mansion that day and thought to herself that he was a good candidate. She nodded and said, "I understand."

Zhou Yinzhi said goodbye now.

As soon as the other person left, Jiang Xue sat quietly for a long time before suddenly slamming her head onto the table and saying, "It's really him, it's about to end!"

That's fifty thousand taels!

She exchanged so many things that Yan Lin had given her, posted her own feelings, and even sold the silver stocks of Ren's Salt Field, which had risen just in time, at a low price. It was only then that she finally managed to make ends meet.

Despite being coerced by these people from the Heavenly Sect, I still feel a bit uncomfortable in my heart.

And she was also worried that these people would eat black, so she had to make three preparations.

Firstly, it is important to give money honestly on your end, and it would be great if you could receive the letter smoothly;

In fact, this has worked.

The other party is indeed quite trustworthy, or perhaps they feel that they are willing to contribute money to the affairs of the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion. They should also be loyal and trustworthy people, and they really handed over the letter to her.

Secondly, Zhou Yinzhi was sent to ambush outside the city gate, just in case. Whether it was blocking the letter or intercepting the money, it was a credit.

This did not work.

This is related to the third point.

Thirdly, she also instructed to secretly reveal the information, so that Xie Wei could detect any clues and get involved in this matter, which can be said to add the last layer of security to the overall situation.

Because she dare not say that she can be foolproof in the first two points.

This is a major matter related to the survival of the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion.

===Kunning Section 141===

Losing money, even exposing oneself, becomes insignificant and insignificant in the face of this major event.

Jiang Xuening cannot afford the risk of failure.

So she took a gamble——

Bet that Xie Wei, whom she knew in her previous life, was secretly a powerful and terrifying person. Bet that this person would have the ability to control the overall situation as long as they knew the news, and also bet on his care for the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion, or rather, bet

The speculation that You Fangyin had never been confirmed by anyone in the previous life!

However, Jiang Xuening did not know whether to say it was luck or misfortune, and this speculation was almost confirmed by her own self in this life!

May I ask, Xie Ju'an was born in Jinling and grew up in Jiangnan. He had never had a deep friendship with the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion, and teaching Yan Lin was just a passing lecture during the Wen Yuan Pavilion's scripture banquet. He had no personal interests, let alone a deep sense of mutual benefit. However, when he received a bit of catching news, he was willing to sacrifice his strength and risked his life to set up a killing plot inside the city gate. The ruthless methods and benefits of his actions were chilling, How could it be that there is really no connection with the Marquis's Mansion?

In the previous life, Jiang Xuening also knew a secret.

That is to say, Xiao Dingfei, who later returned to the Xiao family and became extremely angry, was not really the Crown Prince of Dingfei!

At that time, this person was drunk.

At first, both the court and the public believed deeply in whether this person was the true crown prince. After all, he knew everything about the past, but over time, he always felt that such a good person from childhood could grow up like this, and there was no criticism in secret.

She also has some ideas about it.

So, taking advantage of that moment, he cleverly asked him about his past experiences of being "exiled".

As a result, the promiscuous person swayed and approached her while no one in the pavilion saw her, deliberately taking advantage of her. Her lips were almost pressed against her earlobe, and she said, "Madam, you think I'm drunk and I might say some 'truth', right?"

Jiang Xuening was startled and wanted to retreat.

Unexpectedly, this person forcefully grabbed her sleeve, pulled open the corner of her lips with a sinister aura, and locked her eyes with a burning gaze. "If the empress is willing to sleep with me for a while, I will tell you that I am indeed not that 'definitely not the crown prince'."

He said he is indeed not the Prince of Dingfei!

This surprised her.

However, Jiang Xuening was surprised by the boldness of this person's actions.

She didn't expect the other party to dare to be so reckless in the palace, so she suddenly turned cold and shook off his hand and retreated.

Xiao Dingfei's feet were a bit shaky and he didn't stand steadily, but the smile on his lips not only didn't diminish but also deepened. He even placed the finger that had just pulled her gorgeous palace sleeve under his nose and sniffed lightly.

The eyes were engraved with the infuriating Meng Lang.

Jiang Xuening's gaze turned cold and he said, "You're looking for death!"

Xiao Dingfei raised his eyebrows and didn't pay much attention. Instead, he pressed his index finger on his lips, burned a kiss, and chuckled lightly, saying, "I think it's because the Empress doesn't know her situation. She keeps prying into things she shouldn't know. If that person knows what you heard from me today, even if he doesn't want to settle accounts with me, he'll have to kill her first."

The palace maid who came to fetch her cloak returned at this moment and was startled to see Xiao Dingfei.

She closed her mouth and stopped talking.

Xiao Dingfei, however, did not have a proper posture. He bowed to her crookedly and then withdrew from the pavilion, probably returning to the banquet.

From then on, Jiang Xuening couldn't help but think: Who was the "person" mentioned by Xiao Dingfei, and who was "him"? And perhaps he doesn't intend to kill himself yet, which proves that the other party has at least such ability

But after much thought, there is no clear idea.

But everything that should have been known by the true Prince Dingfei, no matter how big or small, was known by Xiao Dingfei. Therefore, the only thing she could be certain of was that if there was someone behind the scenes who was planning, there must be a great connection with the true Prince Dingfei! I can't say for sure, it's the real Prince Ding Fei himself!

However, until he self destructed the Kunning Palace, he still couldn't break through his secrets.

Now

Jiang Xuening, whose forehead was knocked against the carved lacquer table, suddenly lifted her head again and said, "How could it be?"

Her eyebrows furrowed, she was truly puzzled.

If this person is Xie Wei, according to Xiao Dingfei's words, how could he not want to kill her?

No

It is not yet certain that this person is Xie Wei.

Perhaps no one else has intervened in this matter in the capital. Perhaps it was the group of people from the Heavenly Sect who accidentally exposed their own actions and were caught with flaws?

The key lies in those fifteen silver bills.

If the person behind the scenes is indeed Xie Wei and Lv Xian is present, the other party will definitely recognize the origin of these fifteen silver tickets. Upon a brief inspection, you will find the words written on the silver tickets by the rider, and then know her identity!

Jiang Xuening was afraid that the person behind her would be Xie Wei, so she thought for a long time and wrote that statement on the silver note.

Because she doesn't have more time to exchange silver bills.

Even for exchange, such a large amount of money can still be found.

If the person behind her is not Xie Wei, of course it doesn't matter. Even if others find out, they don't know what this means. For her, it's nothing more than doing idle work and losing 50000 taels of silver; If it was indeed Xie Wei who intervened and intercepted the person, but did not see the letter after seeing the silver bill, he must have put in a lot of effort to check the whereabouts of the letter.

Paper cannot contain fire.

Moreover, how can she be compared to Xie Wei in terms of being alone and powerless?

To be on the safe side, it's better to bow down and admit your mistake first, because she did not have any ill intentions and even helped the Duke of Yong Yi's mansion a lot. If Xie Wei finds out on his own, it will be too late to admit his mistake, which inevitably leads to suspicion and fear from the other party.

And

She was still hoping that if Xie Wei did, she might not be able to get back 50000 taels.

So, to whom did those fifteen silver bills go?

Jiang Xuening's eyelids inexplicably jumped up.

Tang Er, who had just gone out to receive her monthly payment, returned at this moment, but with a hint of caution on her face, she said to Jiang Xuening, "Miss Er, there is someone in the front hall who said it was Master Xie's order to ask you to go and learn the piano. Anyway, you cannot miss your homework."

Jiang Xuening: "..."

An ominous premonition struck.

She pressed her eyelids and said, "Okay, I'll go another day."

Tang'er trembled and said, "That person said, 'We can't reschedule. Thank you for your busy schedule, young master. You need to go as soon as possible today.'"

Jiang Xuening: "..."

Is she in such a hurry to finish teaching her piano and go to reincarnation? So those fifteen silver bills really fell into the hands of someone surnamed Xie!
