"Protect the master!"
When Xiaodao saw that the two men in green were drawing their bows and arrows, he rushed over without hesitation.
As soon as the frightened cry of the knife came, Xin Laoqi pulled out the long knife and drove his horse to Fang Xing's side, ready to block in front of him.
Fang Wu's action was half a beat slower. When he saw the two people loosen their hands, he just felt that their blood was frozen. He couldn't help shouting, "bow and arrow!"
"Master!"
The arrow looked slow and fast. Xin Laoqi drank violently and cut off one arrow with a knife, but the other could only watch Fang awake.
"Master..."
Fang Wu shouted fiercely.
When he heard the shouting, the little knife pulled out his long knife. He vowed to cut the two assassins into meat sauce today.
At this time, the sky was slightly dark. Fang woke up and squinted at the direction of the arrow. He didn't move, as if he was scared silly.
Then there was a sneer from the corner of his mouth.
"Ding!"
The arrow shot into the chest and did not pierce as usual. After making the sound of metal collision, it fell powerlessly.
"Kill!"
The knife rushed to the assassin's body and waved the long knife, but it was strange to find that the assassin's face was wearing a relieved smile.
When the long knife swept over his neck and his head flew up, the assassin saw that the arrow he shot was not inserted into Fang Xing's chest as expected, but fell.
Stunned and disappointed, these two emotions appeared on the face of the head, and then he was grabbed by the knife, and the blood soared.
"Master!"
Xin Laoqi and Fang Wu were scared to death. Seeing Fang awake, they couldn't help looking at his chest.
Fang Xing slapped his chest with a smile and made a dull sound.
"After I came back from Yangzhou, every time I went out, I put a steel plate in my chest. Ha ha! Sure enough, I waited!"
Although Fang Xing was laughing, his eyes were full of yin and cold.
After thinking about it, old Xin said in surprise, "Sir, aren't all the salt merchants taken? How can they drive people to assassinate?"
At this time, the knife had killed two assassins and came back. Seeing that his eyes had wet marks, Fang Wu shouted, "master, it's all right again. Why are you crying!"
The knife said shyly, "I, I thought the master..."
Fang Xingwen said, "it's all found by a knife today. Go home and let Hua Niang make you stewed pig feet."
Xin Laoqi and Fang Wu went to drag the two bodies over and asked Fang Xing what to do with them.
Fang woke up and said, "it doesn't have to go through the Yamen. Fang Wu went to find Jia Quan and asked him to investigate privately."
"Also, don't tell your family about it. If anyone leaks, practice calligraphy for a month!"
Back home, Fang woke up and had dinner as usual, and then discussed business in his study.
After hearing Fang Xing's assassination, Xie Jin frowned and said, "Dehua is sure it's the pen of the salt merchant?"
Fang woke up and said, "the assassination was completed by the dead, and it was not far from Fang's villa. It was obviously an action that had no return."
Although the last operation in Yangzhou blocked the salt merchants, some of their families in other places escaped and disappeared everywhere.
Huang Zhong agreed: "uncle, I think it should be the work of salt merchants. Only they can raise such dead men. As for the royal guards... I don't think it's the way."
Fang Xing said, "yes, Ji Gang will not assassinate me in this way unless he is desperate."
"How brave!"
Xie Jin could not help but be shocked by the boldness of these salt merchants' families, which was provoking Zhu Di and awakening the provocative side.
At this time, Hua Xiaoxiao had been asked by Jia Quan.
"Have your servants increased or decreased recently?"
Jia Quan's voice had no emotion. It was even gloomy against the background of several Zhu Zhanji bodyguards.
Hua Xiaofu said, "the servants in the little girl's family have a fixed number, and they haven't changed in recent years."
Even in the face of royal guards, Hua Xiaoxiao was still not afraid, which made Jia Quan's curiosity greatly increased.
"Today, someone is lurking in your grove and plotting against the law. Dare you say you don't know?"
Hua Xiaowen said: "the little girl has been doing seedling business for several years. If she is premeditated, surely adults don't believe it?"
At this time, a bodyguard came in and brought Fang Xing's words.
"Xing and Bo said that this matter has nothing to do with the Chinese family."
ok
Jia Quan got up and took a deep look at Hua. "If you think of anything, go to Xinghe Bo's house and report it. If you don't report it, the whole family will copy it!"
Hua Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "little girl knows, but dare to ask adults, but has something happened to Xinghe Bo?"
"Huh?"
Jia quanmeng, who had just turned around, stared at Hua Xiaoxiao with Falcon like eyes and said indifferently, "take care of your mouth. Don't ask if you shouldn't ask!"
Hua Xiaoxiao was frightened by the look and tone. She regretted her curiosity. She quickly said, "yes, I know."
Just after Jia Quan left China, he received bad news.
"My Lord, Jin Shangshu was assassinated!"
"Lord Jin was assassinated?"
When Fang Xing received the news, there was no more speculation about the people behind the matter.
Fang woke up and said, "I have to go and have a look."
It was not destined to be peaceful tonight. Just when Zhu Di was angry and ordered a thorough investigation of Jinling City, Fang Xing also took advantage of the wide open gate of the city and came into the city with a sign.
The atmosphere in the streets tonight was tense. It was not a long way. Fang woke up and met more than a dozen groups of sergeants on patrol.
When he arrived at Jin's house, there were more than ten bodyguards outside the door. Fang woke up and recognized two of them, who were around Zhu Di.
"Xinghebo!"
Fang Xing arched his hand and said, "Fang wants to go in and see the old man."
The leading bodyguard looked at Fang Xing indifferently, "Your Majesty is inside, xinghebo, offended."
Then two bodyguards came forward and searched. Fang Xing calmly stretched out his hands and let them do it.
The purse was opened and the purse was opened. When he touched his chest, the guard stepped back fiercely and shouted, "what's in it?"
"Zheng Zheng..."
In the sound of drawing a knife, Fang woke up depressed, lifted up his clothes, patted the steel plate and said, "it was this iron plate that saved my life."
"Poof!"
The lights were bright in front of the door of the Jin family. Fang woke up and saw the steel plate in front of his chest at a glance. A bodyguard couldn't help laughing.
The head guard twitched his cheek a few times and said in a stuffy voice, "Xing Hebo, please come in."
Fang Xing put down his clothes and went into the gate depressed. Then he heard a snickering sound behind him.
When he was led inside, Fang woke up and found that he didn't go to the bedroom, but to the front hall.
Did Lao Jin go?
I didn't hear the cry!
When he got to the front hall and saw Jin Zhongzheng and Zhu Di talking, Fang woke up and was stunned. The salute was half a beat slow.
Zhu Di said in a deep voice, "after Jinzhong was assassinated, you are the first to visit."
Is this saying that I value friendship? Or I'm inviting people!
Fang Xing said with a wry smile, "Your Majesty, the minister and Lord Jin were assassinated before and after. This is a pity for each other!"
Zhu Di snorted coldly, "I'm as timid as a mouse to get a steel plate on my chest!"
