Chapter 927: Jealous, Jealous, Hate

Pan Shuo raised his chin. You could tell that his relationship with Xie Xian was not ordinary. He would show his true feelings at a critical moment!

Yang Fengming expressed that he couldn’t bear to see this and quickly turned his head away. He could only pray to the heavens to kowtow to this brain of his.

It was healthier to knock.

She was so angry that she did not know what to say.

He wanted to show Xie Xian his might, but in the end, the moment he opened his mouth, he brought up the Emperor to suppress him.

However, he was unwilling to let it go.

“What happened? Did you get anything? Who ordered it?”Pan Shuo suddenly thought of the core of the problem. The key was the assassin, not the annoying Yang Fengming.

Xie Xian:

“It’s almost done. I’ll report it to the emperor tomorrow.”

“So fast? After all, it was Xie Xuanhui.”Pan Shuo sighed,”Who is it?””

It was as if he wanted to get to the bottom of it.

“We’ll know tomorrow.” Xie Xian refused to say anything.

Pan Shuo’s miraculous brain suddenly took a sharp turn as he looked at Yang Fengming. This was the brother-in-law of King Jiang Xia. Xie Xuanhui had kept it a secret, so did it mean that King Jiang Xia was involved in this matter?

He didn’t even need to say anything. Everyone present understood what he meant.

Yang Fengming’s face fell on the spot. In fact, there was nothing else he could do. After smashing his feet for a long time, he was so gloomy that he could squeeze out water.

“What do you mean? Why are you looking at me? Are you suspecting me?”

“If you don’t look at me, how do you know I’m looking at you?” Pan Shuo sneered.”

Xie Xian said,”Please calm down.” Brother Pan, you’re overthinking things. The Emperor has sent someone here to express his concern, so I think we should report it to the Emperor immediately. There were many people coming and going in the general’s manor, and it was inevitable that the walls had ears. It would not be good if news leaked.”

If it wasn’t Jiang Xia King, who else could it be?

Pan Shuo did not believe it.

Yang Fengming snorted.” Xie Pushe has good methods. You solved this case in such a short time. I admire you.” However, I don’t agree with his methods.”

She did not get along well with Xie Xian for a long time. In fact, she could see that Xie Xian really did not want to maintain the superficial courtesy. His words were sharp, and his eyes were icy. It was really meaningless to fight with words.

Now was not the time to use real weapons.

“Since Pushe is willing to give orders in the General Manor, then this Yang might as well give up his position and find a room next door to rest for a while.”

It was already past midnight, and the morning court session would be held in another two hours. It would not be enough for them to go back to Black Clothes Alley.

After Yang Fengming finished speaking, he cupped his hands at Xie Xian and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Pan Shuo sighed.” Tell me, this General Yang is from an aristocratic family. He doesn’t lack money. Why does his clothes feel like they don’t fit him? It’s like he borrowed someone else’s clothes to wear. It’s really big.””

If he hadn’t said it, Yang Fengming would have flipped himself over with that gust of wind if he had used a little more strength.

Xie Xian wisely put the teacup to his mouth and did not drink it when he saw him open his mouth. As expected.

Outside the door, Yang Fengming staggered and sprained his foot. If it wasn’t for the fact that he couldn’t win against two people, he really wanted to turn around and personally tear that idiot apart. This was called fashion, this was called fashion. Don’t you know that this is the trend in Jiankang now?

A boorish man, a scheming villain!

Xie Xian was speechless. She didn’t expect Pan Shuo to say something like that. Why was he so focused?

” To be honest,” Pan Shuo leaned forward with his swollen face and asked softly,””It really isn’t Jiang Xia King?”

“They are from North Wu.”

In front of Pan Shuo, there was no need for Xie Xian to hide anything.

Actually, there was no need to hide it from Yang Fengming. It had nothing to do with him if he couldn’t do anything.

However, Yang Fengming felt that his words did not match, and so did Xie Xian. Their paths were different, and they could not work together. One more word was too much.

” The people of Northern Wu have traveled thousands of miles just to kill you…” Pan Shuo reached out and touched his round chin.””Xuan Hui, a man’s name is like a tree’s shadow. It seems that you are too capable. Even North Wu is afraid of you.”

Of course, it was unrealistic to kill the emperor. The emperor was scared out of his wits, and ordinary people would not take him out of the palace.

As for Sikong Xiao, his martial strength was too high. It was hard to say who would kill who.

Anyway, Pan Shuo had used his own brain to understand Northern Wu’s decision. Killing Xie Xian was obviously more cost-effective. Everyone could see that he was truly talented and highly valued by the Emperor. Pan Shuo was also considered a person in the core of power, so he could see clearly that nine out of ten decrees issued by the Imperial Court now came from Xie Xian. The person with high status and authority was talking about him, and the Emperor’s right-hand man was also talking about him.

It was him, it was him.

“Don’t think too much.” Xie Xian stopped Pan Shuo’s imagination in time.”The mastermind is Yin Qing. The advisor who deposed the Crown Prince. Back then, he was exiled to Guangzhou as a scapegoat for the Crown Prince. Taking advantage of the chaos, he encouraged the governor of Guangzhou to raise an army and respond to the king of Jin ‘an. In the end, he was defeated and went to Northern Wu.

I’m now a servant of North Wu.”

Pan Shuo was dumbfounded. What did he mean by ‘a disaster lasts for a thousand years’? This was it!

“This little thief, he really can live!”

Then, he realized,” Are you saying that he’s taking revenge for the deposed prince?””

“Perhaps.” In reality, Xie Xian did not think so.

“Not maybe.” Pan Shuo didn’t dare to shake his head. His head hurt, his face hurt, and he felt pain everywhere. Not only was his face injured, but he had also been running for his life and had hit his body a lot. Now, his back hurt.

“Of course. I’m jealous of you.”

Xie Xian straightened his back.” Brother Pan, do you want to find a room to rest? There’s still a while before the court session.””

“No need-”

“Then I’ll rest first. I’m tired after a night, and my body can’t take it anymore.”

Xie Xian didn’t bother with Pan Shuo and got up to leave. He can’t stand up, who’s body, who cherishes, his body still has his wife staring at him, can’t make a mistake.

Pan Shuo was left hanging.

However, she wasn’t embarrassed at all and followed him out.”Then I’ll rest too. Why don’t we sleep on the same bed and talk about what’s in our hearts? Talk about what’s on your mind? If you ask me, I’m getting more and more confused about the current situation.”Bla bla.

Emperor Yongping did not sleep the whole night.

His old habit had returned. He had drunk too much of the calming soup before. After that, he didn’t dare to drink too much even if he couldn’t sleep. Moreover, this incident was serious. The assassin of Northern Wu dared to assassinate an important official of the imperial court outside the palace. He had reached out his hand to his neck. He would be the one being strangled at any moment.

How could he tolerate this?

Chao Hui went up with two big dark circles under his eyes.

Actually, there was no need to say anything more. The ministers all knew that Xie Xian had been assassinated. They had been searching every house at night, but they had not indulged these people. Even Yang Fengming was caught outside the residence and couldn’t escape the search after he left.

Everyone in Jiankang City knew that Xie Xian had been assassinated.

Xie Xian didn’t hide it from them and had already instructed them to inform the owner of the house before entering or leaving, so as to avoid unnecessary panic.

The people of Daliang had a deep-rooted hatred for the people of Northern Wu. How could they not forgive him for assassinating Xie Pushe of Daliang? Some passionate patriots would even drag people into their latrines to search if it weren’t for the guards. They wouldn’t let go of any space for the Northern Wu assassins to escape.

Guard: ” I’ve already opened the toilet door and stabbed it a dozen times. I’ve even cut off half of the fly’s leg. There’s really no chance for the Northern Wu assassin to hide!”
