Chapter 110 Little Scammer, Desperate for Money

Feeling unwilling and unwilling, Jiang Xuening still tidied up and carried the qin she had brought back to the Xie Mansion.

It was just a recent visit, and the servants in the mansion seemed to remember her.

Take her all the way in from the door, straight to the Zhuo Qin Hall.

On the edge of the courtyard, there are still green asparagus trees planted, and the withered lotus in the pond is covered with a layer of unmelted white snow. Green fish are swimming under the lotus leaves occasionally.

A courtyard resembling a water town in Jiangnan.

This is not commonly seen in Beijing and is very exquisite.

However, at this moment, Jiang Xuening had no intention of appreciating. Her mind was filled with Xie Wei's eyes swaying with a hint of scrutiny, until the servants told her "it's time" before she woke up and quickly said thank you.

Xie Wei was at ease in the hall, holding a cup of tea and standing by the window. He had been waiting for a while.

Jiang Xuening is dawdling outside and doesn't really want to come in.

Xie Wei gently placed the cup of tea on the windowsill and said without looking back, "I dare to intervene in such a big matter. Calling you to learn the piano at this moment is like being bitten by a worm. If you don't come in, are you asking me to come out and invite you?"

Jiang Xuening's face turned slightly blue, but she finally gritted her teeth and cautiously crossed the threshold. She walked in and bowed to Xie Wei, saying, "I have seen you before, sir."

Xie Wei just turned around to look at her.

The little girl hugged Zhang Qin, not even daring to lift her head, burying her head down. Her eyes seemed to be fixed on her own toes, leaving him with a head on his head, which looked like a timid and restless young lady.

Unfortunately, I am not very obedient.

He was at home today, wearing a loose green robe. He pointed to the empty piano table next to her and gestured for her to put down the piano first. Then he asked lightly, "Do you know you're wrong?"

Upon hearing these words, Jiang Xuening understood everything.

Isn't that what she wrote on the silver note earlier!

Xie indeed took his own money!

Jiang Xuening shouted in her heart, but she didn't dare to sit down even after putting down her piano. She just stood upright beside her and honestly said, "I know I'm wrong."

A good attitude is always to admit mistakes, and no matter what, don't argue.

Xie Wei said she was wrong, she was wrong!

However, to his surprise, Xie Wei's next sentence was: "Oh, what's wrong?"

Jiang Xuening: "..."

She vaguely felt that she would die tragically if she didn't admit her mistake first, but if she really had to say what she was wrong, upon careful consideration, it would be difficult for her to say: after all, she didn't think she was wrong either.

Xie Wei threw the stack of silver bills onto the desk and also threw them in front of her. The few ink marks on each of the bills appeared in front of Jiang Xuening.

Her eyelids twitched as she watched.

Xie Wei said, "Isn't this done very well? Even the gentleman is in your dark."

Jiang Xuening only felt that this person's speech today carried a hint of teasing, which made her want to retort. However, considering the strength of the enemy and the weakness of us, she still dared not admit it.

She said in a muffled tone, "The matter is so big that students dare not believe anyone else."

Xie Wei only asked, "How do you know that I got this silver bill?"

Jiang Xuening was very honest and didn't dare to conceal anything: "It was the rumor that I entrusted Lord Zhou Yinzhi, a thousand households of the Jinyi Guard, to reveal. I know the master knows, so I guess it's the master."

But she still used a little ingenuity.

Not to mention "I sent Zhou Yinzhi", nor to directly call Zhou Yinzhi by name, but to say "Lord Zhou Yinzhi of the Thousand Households of the Royal Guards", try to separate oneself from Zhou Yinzhi and avoid making Xie Wei feel that she has secretly cultivated her own power.

After all, she realized that she was scheming with Zhou Yinzhi.

If Xie Wei holds a grudge against him again for this, wouldn't it be unjust?

Xie Wei said again, "So why did you spread rumors to me?"

Jiang Xuening suddenly became somewhat speechless.

Xie Wei's gaze fixed on her face, and she quietly lifted her eyes and bumped into them. She felt that there was some sharp scrutiny in her dark eyes, and then she was so scared that she buried her head in fear. She hurriedly said, "I don't know anyone else except Mr. Xie. I always think if Mr. Xie knew, he might think of a way to become a living horse doctor."

===Kunning Section 142===

A dead horse treated as a living horse doctor?

Is that all?

Xie Wei walked around her for two steps, then suddenly gave a sharp smile and said with interest, "Do I look like a good person?"

Jiang Xuening dared not say that she was trying anything out, nor did she dare to say that she had any other plans. She went all out and continued to talk nonsense, saying, "Mr. Xie is also a teacher of Yan Lin. And at that time, he even gave Yan Lin. The Marquis's Mansion was wronged, but he was loyal and kind. If there is a turning point in the situation, I believe Mr. Xie can help, so as not to stand idly by and let alone fall into trouble. In that case, why not give it a try.". Now it does not prove that you, sir, have a kind heart and are you a good person

Xie Wei said, "The little scammer speaks better than he sings."

With just a small mouthful, he poured enchanting soup into people, afraid of boasting that they would find the north. His black and white eyes cleverly turned around, and his face still wore a sweet and pleasing smile, but he couldn't believe a word he said!

Standing in front of him, Jiang Xuening was extremely restrained, feeling inexplicably pricked all over. She always wanted to move her feet and hands, but she had to hold back and didn't dare to move, feeling uncomfortable.

Upon hearing Xie Wei call her a "little scammer," she dared not refute.

I pursed my lips and pondered hard on how to get out of trouble.

Xie Wei said, "I'm afraid you can't be sure if it's me, but if it's me, you're afraid of being exposed by me after the incident. It's better to write it down in advance. The person holding the silver note is not me, and others can't understand what you wrote. If the person holding the silver note is me, then you've made the right bet, no matter what."

What he said is entirely accurate.

Xie Wei is just too clever, so scary.

Jiang Xuening's biggest fear was standing in front of him, and now he had been poked open. He had to grit his head and admit it, whispering, "Mr. Xie is very observant. You can see through any student's carelessness, I dare not say it's not."

At this moment, it's quite honest to recognize it.

Although Ning Er doesn't like Yan Lin, the feelings of the person from the past cannot be forced. It can't be said that if Yan Lin likes her and treats her well, she also needs to repay the same feelings. With Ning Er's past domineering and cunning actions, it is extremely rare to be able to remember Yan Lin's past feelings and spare this 50000 taels of wealth to save people and the Marquis's Mansion.

Even if Xie Wei had a heart of stone, he wouldn't have done anything to her.

She lowered her gaze and reached out to her, "Did you bring the message?"

Previously, Jiang Xuening was approached by his people to "learn the piano". He had a vague idea of what would happen, but at this moment, he didn't dare to say a word. He took the letter out of his sleeve and respectfully handed it over to Xie Wei.

At first, half was given, and later half was given again.

She put it all together and put it all in one envelope.

Xie Weishen picked up the letter and quickly read it once.

Long time without words.

There was a faint change in the expression of a face, sinking a lot, and even a moment of unconsciousness and trance.

Jiang Xuening secretly looked at him.

He remained silent and focused on folding the letter, asking her, "Have you read it?"

Jiang Xuening suddenly felt a tingling sensation on her scalp. God knew that what she was most afraid of before coming was when Xie Wei asked this question. Now that she had indeed asked, she knew that if she said she had not seen it, even ghosts would not believe it. She had to admit it and said, "I have seen it."

What is stated in the letter is that the brave Marquis Yan Mu voluntarily proposed to conspire with the Heavenly Sect!

It can be said to be a shock to the world!

Xie Wei then said, "You said earlier that you thought the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion was a loyal and virtuous family, so you didn't want to see them suffer and be wronged. However, after reading this letter, do you still think they were wronged?"

What terrifying question is this!

Jiang Xuening almost broke out in a cold sweat on her forehead.

Who in the court and the public still thinks that the Marquis's Mansion has been wronged after reading this letter? If she feels that the Marquis's Mansion has been wronged, what is her conscience? But if you think that the Marquis's Mansion is not being wronged, the person in front of you is Xie Wei. Saying it is not seeking death?

Just

Jiang Xuening's heart suddenly quickened a bit, and she struggled to hold back the unease in her heart. She stuttered and said, "It is precisely because of this that the students want the teacher to distinguish between one and two. Perhaps there is any misunderstanding between them, and once it is credible, it cannot be retrieved from the court. The court situation is so complex that the students dare not."

"I don't know if there's anything else you dare not do," Xie Wei said calmly, putting the letter back without any intention of returning it to Jiang Xuening. "What kind of misunderstanding could there be in between?"

Jiang Xuening boldly glanced at him and said, "I heard that there are some rumors in the court. The Marquis wanted to investigate the whereabouts of Prince Dingfei, who should have died with three hundred righteous children twenty years ago. He was willing to take a strange risk and have correspondence with the Prince of Pingnan who rebelled against the party. If it were that day when the sect was sinister and used it as bait, the Marquis pretended to be deceitful and wanted to know the whereabouts of the Crown Prince under the pretext of conspiracy, but it is unknown."

"..."

In that moment, Xie Wei's gaze became extremely cold and fell straight on her, as if he wanted to pierce through her in the midst of lightning and fire!

Jiang Xuening's whole body trembled with fear, but she looked puzzled as if she didn't understand why Xie Wei suddenly looked at her like this. She was quite confused and spoke nervously, "The students were just speculating randomly..."

Her appearance made Xie Wei realize his mistake.

Yeah, how could Jiang Xuening guess?

He shouldn't have shown such obvious behavior, so he calmly averted his gaze and said, "You're willing to find a reason for the Marquis's Mansion. You don't mind keeping this letter with me, do you?"

Jiang Xuening dares to have a ghost's opinion!

She is just more worried about her own life.

As Xie Wei placed the letter on the desk, she cautiously approached and said, "What's that? Although I have read the letter, sir, rest assured that it is of great importance and I will definitely not reveal it to anyone."

The implication is, can we not kill people and silence them?

Xie Wei had no intention of killing anyone or silencing her, let alone facing her at this moment. However, the meaning in her words seemed extremely scared, so suddenly he felt that she was a bit noisy.

Turning around, I want to say: If you keep talking nonsense, someone will pull out your tongue.

However, her gaze turned back and she saw the young girl behind her with a pair of wet eyes that looked pitifully at her. Her cherry lips were slightly open, with snow-white teeth and a hint of bright red on the tip of her tongue, floating with a bright color. It was pressed behind her teeth and soft in her mouth.

In a blink of an eye, the ghostly depictions on the walls of the wild temple in the mountains flashed through my mind.

Xie Wei suddenly remembered the words of Lv Xian.

However, this fleeting thought came and went quickly, and he didn't have time to catch anything. It was just a slight impatience that had just appeared when he put it away, saying, "I didn't mean to."

Jiang Xuening finally let go and breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on her lips, saying, "Thank you, sir!"

Xie Wei pointed to the piano table and said, "It's been a long time since I left the palace. Let's see how my homework is."

This is asking her to play the piano.

Jiang Xuening's expression was slightly dull, as she looked at Xie Wei and hesitated to speak.

Xie Wei looked back and frowned, "What's going on?"

Jiang Xuening nibbled lightly on her lips, looking extremely hesitant. However, when she thought of her 50000 taels of silver, she finally had the courage to speak hesitantly, "Sir, have you forgotten something?"

Xie Wei said, "What did I forget?"

Jiang Xuening's heart stiffened and she said, "I spent 50000 taels of silver on the letter I gave you earlier, and now all the silver bills are in your hands. Do you think so? Is it... is it still..."

At this point, she raised her eyes and met Xie Wei's gaze.

His eyes were filled with a cold winter night moonlight.

She was so scared that she swallowed the words behind her.

Xie Wei already understood what she was going to say. He lowered his eyes and glanced at the silver banknotes on the table, then lifted his eyes to gaze at her and said quietly, "You reach out."

Is this for her?

Jiang Xuening's eyes lit up slightly, although she hesitated a bit, she still reached out her hand.

"Pop."

Xie Wei reached out and slapped her.

It hurts a bit.

Jiang Xuening immediately withdrew her hand and raised her eyes, looking at the dignified person in front of her with disbelief. She was both surprised and afraid, and even harbored a little timid anger. Her eyes turned red, and she held onto her palm, but dared not speak in anger.

Xie Wei said calmly, "Speaking of which, I haven't asked yet. Where do you come from, little girl? Why do you use it?"

Jiang Xuening: "..."

Xie Wei lightly curled his lips and smiled, "You reach out and I'll give it to you."

Jiang Xuening quietly carried both of her hands behind her, afraid to extend any further. She was afraid that Xie Wei would ask her again where the money came from and what the reasons were. She dared not answer or explain clearly, so she quickly smiled and said, "No, no, it's all for Mr. Xiaojing."

Xie Wei raised his eyebrows lightly, looking quite upright. "This bundle is too expensive, sir, I dare not accept it. Don't worry, it will still be returned to you. But it depends on how well you study."

He pointed to the piano table.

Jiang Xuening: "..."

Suddenly, I feel like swearing.

She held her breath in her heart, although she dared not express herself in front of Xie Wei, and sat silently at the piano table. Thinking about it, she played "Chasing the Moon with Colorful Clouds" taught by Xie Wei before.

However, she has indeed become unfamiliar in the past month.

Although I still remember the fingering technique, I was very unfamiliar when playing the piano, and I played several wrong keys one after another.

Xie Wei stood by the windowsill drinking tea again. She played a wrong tune, and he turned to look at her.

The more he looked, the more nervous Jiang Xuening became.

I couldn't play anymore at the end, so I pushed the piano and felt suffocated.

Xie Wei smiled and said, "Don't want the money anymore?"

Jiang Xuening couldn't help but want to give in and shamelessly said, "I've been a bit unfamiliar these days. How about you teach me again and I'll give it a try?"

Xie Wei put down the tea cup and said, "Okay."

However, when he leaned over and came to Jiang Xuening's side, he lifted his slender finger and was about to lay it on the piano when he saw the transparent nail cap on his finger.

Not long ago, a scene of bloodstained fingers that could not be washed away suddenly piled up in my mind.

Xie Wei's movements stopped, his fingers hanging above the strings, but he didn't fall.

Jiang Xuening was waiting for him to fall on the fingerstring, and suddenly felt a bit puzzled. She couldn't help but turn her head to look at him.

Xie Wei's expression was somewhat unpredictable with ups and downs.

She tentatively asked, "Does Mr. Xie also have a time when he doesn't want to play the piano?"

Xie Wei turned his gaze towards her.

The girl looked at him with some caution, but seemed to be expecting him to play the piano as a demonstration. He wanted to withdraw his fingers to stay away from the strings, but somehow, his heart softened and he fell.

Just as the sound of the qin accompanied Xie Wei's answer sounded, Jiang Xuening was a bit distracted.

She suddenly felt that he was deeply affectionate at the moment and had seen him somewhere before.

After thinking for a long time, I finally remembered.

It was a palace banquet in the previous life.

===Kunning Section 143===

At that time, when Shen Jie was not yet lingering on her sickbed and she was still being favored, it was inevitable that she would be a bit forgetful. The musician who played the piano during the banquet made a mistake and felt anxious.

She clapped her hands and joked, saying it was better to ask Mr. Xie to play.

During the banquet, all the officials changed their faces slightly.

Xie Wei seemed to furrow her brows, but she didn't have much fear even when she was drunk. In a daze, he seemed to take a glance at himself, with the same expression as at the moment.

Did you play it in the end?

Jiang Xuening only remembered being very tired, and soon his eyes were drunk and drowsy. He vaguely remembered the sound of the qin lingering in his ears, but it was not the qin that Xie Wei touched later that left no impression.

After retelling the finger technique, Xie Wei turned his head and asked her, "Do you understand?"

Jiang Xuening was startled by the words and then regained consciousness, instinctively turning her head.

The two faces suddenly drew closer and almost collided.

Four eyes facing each other, breath intersecting.

The girl had a sweet fragrance of gardenia on her body, her thick and long eyelashes pressing against her clear pupils, her Qiong nose fluttering, her sandalwood lips slightly lifted, and two ruby carved earrings hanging on her snow-white earlobes, resembling two ripe red cherries adorned with thick green leaves, ready for picking.

Like a bud like girl, with a fresh and tender luster.

Jiang Xuening has never had a dignified appearance. After entering the capital, she gradually shed her green and astringent appearance. She grew and twitched, with a slender neck and a delicate figure. Her skin exposed outside her clothes was fragile, as if covering her five fingers would leave a red mark.

Xie Wei saw a little red tip of her tongue again.

So suddenly, he had an unprecedented clear understanding: even though he thought Ning Er was the little girl who had not yet grown up in his heart, it had already been four years. In the first month of the lunar new year, it would be her birthday, and in another year, it would be time to reach her hair. She has grown up. Such a beautiful appearance with bright colors is enough to make many men in the capital flock to her and cling to her dreams.

I have no sexual desire for Ning Er.

Xie Wei suddenly caught something that he had not been able to catch in the previous moment of thought and stood in front of her, slightly stiff.

Jiang Xuening felt that something was wrong with Xie Wei at the moment, and after retreating, she stood there watching as she remained motionless.

I called twice, but Xie Wei didn't respond.

She reached out to tug at Xie Wei's sleeve robe and tentatively shouted, "Mr. Xie?"

Unexpectedly, Xie Wei glanced at her and gently withdrew his arm. He raised his finger to press down on the sleeve robe, avoiding suspicion and not letting her touch it. He didn't take any closer, only saying, "You're just a little rusty, you haven't forgotten your finger technique. Try playing it again."

Jiang Xuening found him strange.

But as soon as he heard him say he was playing the piano, he stopped thinking about what he had just missed, and turned to playing the piano seriously.

She played twice and finally finished without any mistakes.

His eyebrows were tinged with a hint of joy.

Jiang Xuening turned her head happily and smiled brightly, "Sir, money!"

On the desk is that stack of silver bills.

But Xie Wei didn't take those, instead he opened a box next to him, which was filled with silver bills.

Jiang Xuening was immediately filled with anticipation.

However, what was handed to her next moment was not a dozen, but a piece of paper!

Only a thousand taels!

Her happy expression immediately froze.

Xie Wei said, "No?"

Saying a pretense means retracting it.

Jiang Xuening quickly grabbed it and said, "Yes!"

After retrieving the silver ticket from Xie Wei's hand, she was filled with anger and felt deceived: "Didn't you say you would return the piano to me after playing it?"

Xie Wei raised his eyebrows and looked at her indifferently, "What I'm saying is it depends on how well you do your homework. The day is long, why are you panicking?"

Jiang Xuening almost jumped and said, "Is it worth it when I play?"

Xie Wei stood far away from her, turned around and closed the box filled with silver bills. With a gentle tug at the corner of his mouth, he only replied to her, "Playing like this, switching to another place, even if it's a tip, I won't listen."
