The fierce fighting in the Wei Mansion naturally alarmed the whole city of Anyi. Sima, who led the army, and the guards finally breathed a sigh of relief when they discovered that the Taiwei was safe and sound.

But then everyone was stunned by the brutality of the scene. There were forty or fifty people from the Wei Mansion's domestic slaves and guards lying on the ground, most of them lifeless. There were also a dozen people in black lying in the yard, some of them were

Some of those killed by Wei Tong and others were severely injured and unable to walk.

That Sima quickly asked people to come forward and tie up those men in black who were still alive. These were important witnesses.

In the Prefect's Mansion, Prefect Yin De recently took in a new concubine. After working hard on her tonight, as soon as he lay down, he heard a rapid knock on the door. Yin De sat up from the bed and asked:

"What's up?"

"Master Fu, something big has happened!" A man's urgent shout came from outside the door.

Yinde listened carefully and saw that it was his family member Wang Cheng, so he stood up and opened the door to the person in the dark and asked: "What's the matter?"

"The villain is sending a message to the Taiwei's Mansion, asking the master to come over quickly."

"What's going on?" Yin De was a little unhappy. Although Taiwei Wei Su was an important minister and the Wei family was a famous family in China, Wei Su resigned after all. Yin De was also the prefect of a county, so he came to disturb people in the middle of the night.

Qing Meng, he also said that he should go to the palace quickly, but the servant who sent the message was obviously very ignorant.

Wang Cheng's face turned a little pale. He knew why his master was angry, but things in the Wei Mansion were too big, and the messengers came and went in a hurry!

"I don't know much about it, I just heard that there was an assassin who assassinated the Taiwei."

Yin De was startled and asked hurriedly: "How is the Taiwei?"

Wang Cheng's face was sweating more and more, and he held back a few words for a long time: "The Taiwei is fine. I don't know whether the second son, Wei Xuan, is alive or dead."

Yin De breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the first half of the sentence, but immediately became anxious after hearing the second half. He hurried back to the room, put on his clothes and quickly came out.

Seeing his master come out, Wang Cheng also breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly took a few steps to the boy waiting at the door and ordered: "Hurry and prepare the car."

Yin De didn't even look back: "What kind of car should you prepare? Prepare horses!"

Wang Cheng was stunned and replied: "Yes."

The prefect, dressed in civilian uniform, galloped around Anyi City in the middle of the night, which really caused a sensation. Rumors spread all over the city for a while. Some said that the prefect came to Beijing with a secret order, while others said that rogue bandits were causing trouble. The most outrageous one said that Heishan in the east

The army is about to reach Anyi City.

Although the assassin was repelled, Wei Su had no intention of checking the scene. After the man in black escaped, he came to the study as soon as possible and saw his second son Wei Xuan lying on the ground, covered in blood, with multiple wounds on the ground.

There was a pool of blood. With tears in his eyes, Wei Su knelt down beside him and tried it on the tip of Wei Xuan's nose with his hand. He was furious. Then he reluctantly grabbed his son's hand that was cut by the sword, but felt a cold feeling in his hand.

!

"Lieutenant, please go and rest in peace. Leave the second son to Xiaodao."

Just when Wei Su was grief-stricken, a Taoist priest who was about thirty years old suddenly stood next to him. Wei Su glanced at him and said nothing. He didn't recognize the person, but this person knew the Wei family very well.

The son of the Three Lords, Wei Su was once a Taiwei, one of the Three Lords. His son can naturally be called the Young Master. What surprised Wei Su even more was that this man seemed to have arrived here before him. He just cared too much about Wei Xuan and didn't pay attention.

Yeah, if this person is an accomplice of those assassins...

At this time, the middle-aged man who used the gun followed him to the study. He had already taken off the black cloth and said: "Captain, it will take some time for the doctor to arrive. Why not let him try? The common people will also listen."

I hurriedly came from the Northland after receiving his divination, but I didn’t expect that it was still a step too late.”

Hearing that the little Taoist priest came with his savior, Wei Su's face looked better. He let go of his son's cold palm, stood up and bowed to the two of them and saluted: "Thank you both, Su has nothing to repay.

, Dare I ask who you two are?”

The two of them, a charlatan and a charlatan, dared to accept his great gift, so they quickly jumped aside.

"Caomin Tong Yuan, he is Zuo Ci..." Tong Yuan was obviously more experienced than Zuo Ci, and he quickly announced his family name before Wei Su asked again.

"It's important to save people, it's important to save people. Fortunately, Xiaodao brought the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill today. Lieutenant, please relax, the young master will be fine." Zuo Ci seemed to have recovered from his previous nervousness.

Wei Su looked at the little Taoist priest very suspiciously, but thinking of Tong Yuan's skills, it was not easy for the little Taoist priest. His second son Wei Xuan was stabbed three or four bloody holes by the man in black earlier, and he lost a lot of blood.

I was so angry that I couldn't delay any longer. So I made a gesture of invitation and stepped aside.

The meeting hall of the Wei Mansion is brightly lit at the moment, and everyone is gathered together. On the right are Yin De, the governor of Hedong, the Ling of Anyi, the Cheng of Hedong County, the meritorious officials of the county, the county soldier Sima and the Anyi county lieutenant are leading people to search for assassins in the city.

On the left are Wei Le, Wei Tong, Wei Ning, Wei Zheng and other Wei family members. Although Pei Sheng is the lord of Hedong, he is also standing on the left at this moment. He is obviously telling the Hedong officials in the hall that his Pei family and Wei family

It's one piece!

Such a big thing happened tonight, and everyone felt very heavy. It was not until Wei Su, who was sitting in the upper position, finally seemed to calm down and told everyone to sit down. Then everyone in the hall bowed to Wei Su again and sat down.

Wei Su glanced at his son Wei Tong and said, "Tong'er, go and ask Mr. Tong to come."

Wei Tong stood up from his position and nodded towards the back hall. Tong Yuan was the first among the living people to fight against the leading assassin in black. At this moment, everyone in the hall was naturally discussing how to catch the assassin and how to deal with the aftermath.

Taishou Yinde stood up again and bowed to Wei Su: "Taiwei, what happened is because of your incompetence. Please punish me, Taiwei!"

Wei Su glanced at him and waved his hands, understanding that he wanted to retreat in order to advance. With the power of the Wei family and the Pei family in Hedong, and the reputation of Wei Su, it was not difficult to ignore him, a prefect from other places. The system of the Han Dynasty

Most of the local governors were transferred from other places, while the vast majority of the officials' subordinates were recruited within the territory. Most of the prominent families with the right surname in Hedong attached themselves to the Wei family and the Pei family, not to mention that the assassin's target this time was the former Taiwei!

Tong Yuan had been watching how Zuo Ci was treating Wei Xuan. Wei Tong went to invite him and arrived a moment later. When he saw everyone in the hall, before Wei Su could speak, he took a few steps forward and came to Wei Su and whispered: "Captain, the assassin can catch him."

Just count them, there is no need to go into details in public. The common people will report the details to the Taiwei later."

Wei Su was a little surprised. Not only was Tong Yuan good at martial arts, but he also seemed to be very understanding of people. Since Tong Yuan said he couldn't investigate in public, it was obvious that he might know the assassins and know where they came from.

In fact, Wei Su also had a vague suspicion in his mind. The Wei family was a famous family not only in Hedong, but also in Sili and even at home. He and his family members were considered to be honest officials. If he had offended anyone in recent years, he would have to kill someone.

Just the eunuchs in the palace!

Thinking of this, Wei Su coughed twice and turned to Yin De and others: "Ming Mansion, county magistrates, please go back and wait until dawn to see the results of the arrest."

Yin De breathed a sigh of relief. He used this topic because the old man lost his beloved son. He could write to the court to denounce the eunuchs and relatives, and he could also write to the court to comment on the governor's incompetence in governing the place!

Now it seemed that the Wei family knew about some assassins, and he did not want to continue sitting here, so he stood up and bowed to Wei Su again: "Then, Lieutenant, please rest. If there is news tomorrow, I will report to Lieutenant Ming as soon as possible."

." After saying that, he turned around and looked at Jun Cheng and Gaoyi Ling. After confirming their eyes, they left one after another.

After the main officials of the Hedong County Governor's Office and Gaoyi County Government left, except for Tong Yuan, all the people in the hall were members of the Wei family. Wei Le looked at his brother and didn't understand why he let go of these local officials so lightly.

The other Wei family members, including Pei Sheng, also looked at Wei Su almost at the same time.

Wei Su looked at Tong Yuan who had stepped aside. That means you can finally say it now.

Tong Yuan had no choice but to step forward again and said: "Lieutenant, the leader in black who fought against the grassroots before is none other than the famous knight Wang Yue, the current master of the Broken Sword Sect!"

Wei Su frowned, and the others also looked confused. Most of them had never heard of Wang Yue's name, and they knew nothing about Broken Sword Sect. But this was certainly not the reason why those parents left.

So they all looked at Tong Yuan.

Tong Yuan smiled bitterly: "Wang Yue became famous at a young age, with superb martial arts and many disciples. He even outnumbered ordinary people in the world. But in the past few years, for some unknown reason, Wang Yue began to be willing to be driven by others and do some dirty work for others. Later,

It was because of his pursuit of fame and wealth that he entered the palace and became a palace guard."

At this point, many people began to understand that this king came from Luoyang! Everyone here is not simple. No one would think that the current emperor is so stupid that he would send the best guards in the palace to assassinate a returning Taiwei.

!Wang Yue was extremely utilitarian, and the only people who could offer enough temptations were not only the emperor but also the ten constant attendants around the emperor! The same people in Luoyang were the only ones who could command Wang Yue.

It makes sense that Wei Su was assassinated by palace guards sent by Shi Changshi because he frequently wrote to Cao Ting. Although Wei Su was okay, a son died. This spread that Shi Changshi was not afraid of others' comments, which was a great disadvantage to the Wei family.

And if the Wei family wanted to openly use a few officials from the county and county to investigate the matter, it would be a bit like targeting the court and the emperor.

It was obvious that all the Wei family members here were unwilling to let the Wei family give up. Tong Yuan also saw it, so he even apologized and left, saying that he was going to see how Zuo Ci was doing!

After Tong Yuan left, the Wei family fell into silence. The target of the assassin was Wei Su. This was already a mortal enemy. The Wei family had lost a second son and many loyal slaves, so they couldn't do anything! But

The reason why the Wei family became a wealthy family in Hedong was because of the protection of the Han Dynasty. They could not blatantly target the palace guards. For a while, they really couldn't think of a way. Finally, Wei Tong said, "Let's go see the second brother." Everyone felt heavy.

Rush to the study room.
