son, don't mess around

Chapter 339 Miss Zhao takes the initiative to come to the door

early morning.

It's just dawn.

It's extremely cold on the streets of Beijing.

The frost and snow do not melt, the sky is gloomy, and the cold wind blows on the face, causing the skin to ache like a bone.

The streets were sparsely populated, and the sky in the distance was gray.

As the New Year approaches, there are already some signs of the new year in Beijing.

Spring couplets have been pasted on the bustling places, restaurants, teahouses, and romantic places in the capital, and red lanterns have been hung on both sides of the streets, which is quite festive and dilutes the desertedness after the heavy snowfall in the capital.

During this heavy snowfall, countless people froze to death outside the city, and the number of people who froze and starved to death continued to increase. The court continued to suppress the news, but still could not hide it.

Quite a bit of turmoil even broke out in several remote places outside the capital. Although it was suppressed in time, the news still spread to the capital, causing heated discussions among the people in the capital and casting a shadow on the minds of officials in the DPRK and China.

Everyone vaguely expected that this year might not be easy!

His Majesty has been in seclusion for more than half a year and there has been no news from him. His Royal Highness the Prince who oversees the country is seriously ill and weak. The forces in the DPRK and China are complicated, and the Daning Dynasty is on the verge of collapse.

In addition to the relative stability in Beijing, the various states and localities in the Daning Dynasty have already received a lot of intelligence news. The states and counties are also ready to take action and are in a wait-and-see state.

Undercurrent is surging!

Under the imperial city.

Covered in snow, Mitiansi's vermilion-black door stands tightly closed, giving people an inexplicable sense of depression.

The snow on the eaves has not yet melted, but the front door of Mitiansi is in a mess. There is no snow, leaving countless hurried and chaotic footprints.

Mitiansi has been extremely busy these days.

Mi Tiansi mobilized almost all the available people in the capital to search for the whereabouts of their protectors.

The dignified Dharma protector of the Mitiansi was actually attacked in the street. This was undoubtedly a slap in the face for their Mitiansi.

This news had also spread in Beijing and reached the ears of many ministers.

Hearing this news, most people applauded and were very happy!

On weekdays, this Mi Tiansi relied on the order of the Emperor's personal guard, and was ordered to kill first and report later, so he would do whatever he wanted in the capital. Ordinary ministers would not dare to offend, and dare not speak out in anger.

Now that something happened to Mitiansi, everyone was naturally relieved. But there are also some thoughtful people who realize that what is going on is not simple. The courage of the murderer to dare to assassinate the protector of Mitiansi on the street in the middle of the capital is really extraordinary.

And those who can do this...

Not too much!

For a time, there were a lot of discussions and speculations in Beijing.

At this moment, it was just dawn and the sky was bright.

The door of Mitiansi Yamen was slowly pushed open, and two Mitiansi in black robes walked out. As soon as I stepped out of the door, there was a smell of blood.

The expressions of the two men immediately changed slightly. Mi Tiansi has been dealing with people in the world all year round and has many lives under his command, so he is particularly sensitive to the smell of blood.

Where does the smell of blood come from outside this Mitiansi?

The two of them opened the door cautiously, and the next second, they both froze in place.

The cold wind was howling fiercely, and a body was hanging under the eaves in front of Mitiansi Yamen.

The body was in tattered clothes and was almost unrecognizable.

But the two of them recognized at a glance that the corpse was wearing the brocade robe of their Mitiansi.

what happened? !

Their people from Mitiansi were killed, and they were hung up at the door of Mitiansi? !

The murderer is so deceptive! !

The two of them were furious, and just when they were about to go back to report, one of them came slightly closer, and soon he saw the face of the corpse under the messy hair.

The next second, his whole body was as cold as ice, as if he was falling into the abyss.

"Chen, Protector Chen?!!"

"..."

The atmosphere in Mitiansi was dull.

The silence was a bit eerie.

Chen Changqing quickly walked through the front courtyard pavilion and came to the front hall.

At this moment, many Mitiansi masters had already gathered in the front hall, and everyone gathered around the front yard without saying a word.

There was a lot of discussion on weekdays, but today there was a strange silence.

Even the air seemed frozen.

"Chief!"

In the crowd, a path separated.

Chen Changqing walked into the front hall. At this moment, a body was lying on the ground in the front hall. The body was in a messy state, covered in blood, and the blood solidified quickly in the winter.

Incredible!

Just one glance can make people feel psychologically uncomfortable.

But Chen Changqing still saw it at a glance...

Chen Feiyang!

It's him!

he died!

At the moment when he saw Chen Feiyang's body, Chen Changqing's heart felt like some lingering mood had finally settled.

Although he had known for a long time that Chen Feiyang would definitely die and had received a definite answer from Prince Lin, his feelings were still different when he saw it with his own eyes.

This is an indescribable feeling of pleasure.

Chen Changqing took a deep breath, concealed the excitement in his eyes, raised his head and glanced around, and said in a deep voice: "What's going on?"

"Chief, early this morning, when I went out on patrol, I found the body of Protector Chen, hanging outside the gate of Mitiansi..."

"No trace was found outside the door, and the other party did not leave any clues..."

As soon as these words came out, it caused a commotion in the surrounding area.

Many people had looks of shock and anger on their faces.

Deception is too much!

From the day Guardian Chen was attacked and his whereabouts were unknown, many people had vague expectations... Guardian Chen was probably killed!

But they never expected that not only would their protector Chen be killed, but after the murder, his body would be hung directly at the gate of Mitiansi by the murderer.

What does it mean?

Demonstration?

provocative!

This is a naked provocation!

It was a serious provocation to Mitiansi and an absolute contempt for the imperial power!

After killing their protector, he was so arrogant as to hang their body outside the door.

If this news spreads, how can Mi Tiansi still have face in the capital?

How can there be any dignity in the future? How to gain a foothold in Beijing?

This is clearly a murderous attack on Mi Tiansi!

"That's unreasonable!"

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Chen Changqing's gloomy eyes burst out with strong anger.

"They are provoking us and provoking the imperial power. They must not be leniently spared!"

Chen Changqing said coldly: "Send my order to blockade the streets in the city and search for any suspicious persons... I would rather kill by mistake than let him go!"

"Yes!"

In Mitiansi, Chen Changqing stood there with a look of sadness on his face. He quietly looked at the corpse on the ground for a few times and said in a deep voice: "Send Protector Chen down. After I report to the Great Protector, I will send him down again." Protector Chen, give him a good burial!"

"Yes!"

Afterwards, Chen Changqing straightened his clothes, slowly raised his head, and walked toward the backyard.

……

Capital City, Zhao Mansion!

The snow in the courtyard is gradually melting, and Zhao Xi, wearing a light-colored green skirt, is standing quietly under the eaves, admiring the color of the snow in the courtyard.

She rarely goes out on weekdays, and rarely wears such thick and formal clothes as she did today.

Her waist-length blue hair is slightly coiled up, supported by a delicate white jade hairpin, and she has a snow-white, elegant and delicate face with melon seeds. She is so beautiful that every frown and smile seems to be pleasing to the eye.

As the eldest daughter of the Zhao family, Prime Minister Zhao got a daughter in his later years. This Miss Zhao has been doted on since childhood, and her aura that seems to be innate is indescribable.

She was wrapped in a thick mink velvet coat, blocking the cold winter wind. Occasionally, she could catch a glimpse of her long legs wrapped in a long skirt between the coat.

Although the real shadow is not visible, you can still see the extraordinarily slender figure. Stepping on a pair of cyan embroidered shoes, they were wrapped tightly.

Zhao Xi stood quietly under the eaves, the cold wind blew her face slightly red, and her snow-white and delicate skin was like a winter plum.

There was no emotion on her face, and she looked at the courtyard in front of her calmly.

The snow on the swings in the courtyard has melted, the trees and vines have withered, the bridge is covered with ice and snow, and the stream under the bridge has long been frozen into ice.

In the depth of winter, spring is no longer the scene.

After an unknown amount of time, a figure suddenly appeared on the outer wall of the courtyard. He climbed over the wall with agility, landed quietly in the courtyard, and approached under the eaves.

"Miss, I have sent Chen Feiyang's body outside the gate of Mitiansi!"

Zhao Xi glanced at her: "How did Mi Tiansi react?"

"Mitiansi is furious and is preparing to blockade the capital and search for the murderer... It seems that they want to make the matter bigger!" "Block the capital?"

Zhao Xi sneered, with a slight scorn in his beautiful eyes: "They really think so. Do they really think that their Mi Tiansi has already covered the sky with one hand in the capital? If they want to block the capital, they have to see if other people agree."

"Miss, do you need me to tell the master?"

"No need!"

Zhao Xi shook his head lightly: "There is no need for my father to take action in this matter... let's wait a little longer."

"Since they want to make a fuss, let them make a fuss!"

Zhao Xi slowly recovered his thoughts and glanced at the figure under the eaves: "You should step back first and pay close attention to the movements of Mitiansi. If there is any abnormality, report to me at any time!"

"Yes."

After the figure disappeared, Zhao Xi stood under the eaves for a while.

At this time, Xiaoyue's voice came from behind: "Miss, it's cold outside, do you want to go back to your room first?"

Zhao Xi came back to his senses and shook his head gently: "I want to go out for a walk today."

"Go for a walk?!"

Xiaoyue was a little surprised that the young lady wanted to go out for the first time?

She opened her eyes in excitement: "Miss, where do you want to go? To the south of the city or to the north?"

"neither!"

Zhao Xi shook his head slightly, as if he thought of something, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Go to the west of the city!"

"Chengxi?"

Xiaoyue was stunned, what is there to do in the west of the city?

The west side of the city is populated by officials from some powerful families. When it comes to entertainment, it is not as good as the south and north of the city.

How can the young lady go to the west of the city without any problems?

and many more……

Xiaoyue quickly remembered!

Jiang Mansion seems to be on the west side of the city...

Xiaoyue suddenly realized why her lady was dressed so formally today? !

"Miss, are you looking for Prince Lin?"

"Is there a problem?"

Zhao Xi glanced at her: "Prince Lin has helped me so much this time and has shown such a great favor. Do I have to thank him properly?"

Zhao Xi's beautiful eyes turned and she chuckled:

"Since he doesn't want to come to me, then I have to... I take the initiative to find him!"

"..."

Capital, West Gate.

At noon, the sky gradually improved, the gray sky gradually faded, and the sky and the earth gradually became clear.

There was a lot of noise inside and outside the city.

At the gate of the city, the city defense soldiers were strictly checking the people entering and leaving the city, and among them there were many Mitiansi figures.

Lin Jiangnian was sitting in a teahouse opposite the city gate, drinking tea and quietly looking out the window at the city gate scene.

I don’t know how long it took, but a familiar aroma came from my nose. Then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a familiar figure dressed in red.

"coming?!"

Lin Jiangnian raised his head, landed on this increasingly familiar cold and beautiful face, and chuckled: "I thought you would let me go!"

"I never break my promise!"

Liu Su snorted lightly.

Sons and daughters of the world are never sloppy in their speech.

Lin Jiang young smiled: "Would you like to sit down for a while?"

Liu Su did not sit down or move. She stood quietly in front of Lin Jiangnian and looked at her condescendingly. A complicated look suddenly appeared in her beautiful eyes: "Have you really made your decision?"

"What a coincidence, I never break my promise!"

Lin Jiangnian smiled at her.

Liu Su snorted again, moved his head, and looked outside the city gate not far away. His eyes were a little complicated, and he was silent for a moment: "In that case, let's go, don't waste time!"

"Row."

Lin Jiangnian drank the last cup of tea in his teacup and then slowly stood up.

"Let's go, your leader... must be waiting impatiently, right?"

"..."

The two of them left the teahouse and the capital, rented two fast horses outside the city, and headed west. About half an hour later, they arrived at a small town.

The town can be considered prosperous, with people coming and going along the way.

However, when Liu Su came to the town, her mood obviously changed a lot.

"what happened?"

Lin Jiangnian noticed her change and asked.

Liu Su sat on the horse, took a deep breath, and turned to look at Lin Jiangnian: "Have you really made your decision?"

"how?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at her quietly and chuckled: "Are you worried about me?"

Liu Su lowered her eyes slightly and said nothing.

But, it’s considered acquiescence!

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Lin Jiangnian naturally knew what Liu Su was thinking. He raised his eyes and looked at the town ahead, "We've come here, but we still have to meet... What if your leader likes me very much and decides to make friends with me? Am I right?"

Liu Su said coldly: "It's already this time, are you still in the mood to joke?"

"if not?"

Lin Jiangnian asked back and sighed softly: "You were not like this before... Didn't I learn this from you?"

Liu Su was a little angry. What was the situation before?

What's the situation now?

How could she relax when it was about his life?

However, seeing Lin Jiangnian's nonchalant look, Liu Su couldn't help but said angrily, "Whatever you want..."

"If something unexpected happens later, don't blame me if you die!"

After saying that, Liu Su entered the town with a cold face.

Seeing Liu Su's angry expression, Lin Jiangnian had to sigh. Even if Liu Su didn't admit it, Liu Su's subconscious had indeed changed a lot in front of him...

He followed Liu Su into the town, got off his horse, and walked through several alleys along the street.

When they were about to reach the end of the alley, Liu Su, who had been keeping a cold face and not talking to Lin Jiangnian, finally couldn't help it. She glanced at him coldly and gritted her teeth and said, "Wait a minute, don't talk nonsense. Just do what you said before." If your plan comes, everything will be obeyed by me, you know?"

"Once anything goes wrong, you should find a way to leave as soon as possible... I will help you, and you must leave as soon as possible, understand?"

Looking at Liu Su's cold face and full of anxiety, Lin Jiangnian's heart warmed slightly, but he did not continue to joke and nodded: "Don't worry, I will listen to you."

"Absolutely no messing around!"

Liu Su breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, took a deep breath, and continued walking forward.

Not long after, a few more figures suddenly appeared quietly from the surroundings, blocking the way in front of the two of them.

"Saint!"

A low and respectful voice sounded, and at the same time several eyes were fixed on Lin Jiangnian behind Liu Su.

"he is?"

At this moment, Liu Su was dressed in a fiery red dress, with a cold temperament. There was no emotion on her cold face, and there was a chilling coldness on her face.

"On the order of the leader, Prince Lin has been brought here to meet the leader!"

……

ps: I wish you all a happy New Year’s Eve and a great new year! !

"..."
