When those killers saw that it was me, they were stunned.
"Miss?!"
I looked at him coldly and said angrily: "Get back!"
He was so scared that his hands shook, and the knife fell to the ground with a clang. Several people around him hurriedly came forward to support him. Someone picked up the knife on the ground and looked up at me: "Miss?"
"I won't retreat yet!"
“…”
They hesitated, but when they saw me standing at the door, they really didn't dare to go over me and moved forward. They could only slowly retreat. The people who were going to rush up from under the stairs were also suppressed by them.
After a while, the person was gone.
Only a mess was left, and a few shadow guards covered in wounds.
Su Su seemed to have reacted at this time, and hurriedly ran out and grabbed me, looking up and down to see if I was injured. I waved my hand lightly: "Don't worry, they don't dare to touch me yet."
After saying that, he turned around and walked back.
The pearl curtain kept shaking, which made people feel upset. When I turned around and walked in, I saw Pei Yuanhao sitting there, and there were two shadow guards next to him at some point.
It took only a blink of an eye since I just got up and went back to now.
However, when I looked at the open window, I understood. I thought that, how could he really dare to enter Chengdu with just a little people? Naturally, he had to be fully prepared.
Su Su was also shocked by the two people who suddenly appeared. I reached out and patted her hand, indicating that she didn't have to be afraid, and then sat down. Pei Yuanhao's face was somewhat surprised. He looked at me for a while before saying, "So, this is how you looked when you lose your temper."
I sat down and said coldly: "Those who do not know the overall situation are not wise, and those who do not know the great realm are incompetent. Such people who are not wise and incompetent can be cursed by a few words."
"Those who do not know the overall situation have no wisdom, and those who do not know the great realm are incompetent..."
He murmured and repeated the sentence, and I looked up at him and said, "But they have left, there is no need to pursue this matter anymore. Please show mercy to your Majesty."
“…”
He looked at me for a while, then turned his head and said in a deep voice: "Let them not chase after me anymore."
The two shadow guards took the order and immediately flashed out.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief when I heard him say this.
The restaurant has been like this, so there is no need to stay any longer. The remaining shadow guards escorted us downstairs carefully. As soon as we got downstairs, we saw the owner of the restaurant and several waiters hiding at the counter, trembling. We were so scared that we were no longer happy. I was too lazy to ask what role they played in this. I only asked Su Su to compensate them for some money and walked out.
The entire street was empty at this time.
Su Su took a lantern from the restaurant and walked carefully in front of us. The shadow guards hid in the dark again. Pei Yuanhao and I walked slowly, and the footsteps spread far on the empty streets.
He said, "These are the people who are coming to assassinate me?"
"Maybe, just part."
"oh?"
“It’s still a better part.”
"What does the better part mean?"
"It means that if I lose my temper, they will retreat."
Pei Yuanhao turned to look at me: "In other words, there are still some, even if you are here, they still have to take action?"
I sneered, "Maybe, I'm here, they have to do it more."
Pei Yuanhao thought for a while and said, "I still want to ask you, what's going on with the fire in Xishan Academy?"
He was keen. I just mentioned it, and he actually thought of this so quickly.
So, I slowly told him the fire in Xishan Academy. Pei Yuanhao listened and said nothing, but the lantern in front was shaking slightly, and the faint light reflected his eyebrows, with the hanging needle pattern very deep.
He said, "So, your fifth uncle has already colluded with Pei Yuanxiu?"
"Yes."
"Now they do things completely for Pei Yuanxiu?"
"Yes."
"Ha," he chuckled: "It seems that he is still the one who fights me here."
"If Your Majesty thinks this way, then he's probably wrong."
"oh?"
"The water in Xichuan is much deeper than what you want from Your Majesty. If Your Majesty wants to have a peace talk with Xichuan and the peace talks are successful, it is best not to ignore anyone or anything here."
“…”
"Sometimes do you think that when you walk into a cave, you should be careful of the jackals, tigers and leopards inside?"
“…”
"Maybe, that cave is the mouth of a wild beast."
“…”
He didn't say anything, but his eyes flashed slightly, looking at me intently.
We continued to walk forward and walked to the inn where he was staying. Only then did we realize that the place had been booked by him.
I was so amused and laughed: "Are you afraid that you are not attracting attention enough?"
He smiled faintly: "Are you afraid no one knows that just happened?"
I didn't say much, just let Susu pass the message, transfer all my people around, and then followed him into the inn.
This place is not a good one, but it is better to be quiet. The room is also simple and cleaned. After he booked this inn, the waiter inside only had to concentrate on serving us, which was much more convenient than other places.
After entering, because I was a little scared just now, I sat down and drank a cup of hot tea.
Pei Yuanhao looked at me and said, "You really don't plan to tell me why Liu Qinghan didn't come with you?"
I shook my head and said, "This is a matter between me and him, I don't want to mention it anymore."
He said, "But you just told me that in Xichuan, you cannot ignore any person or anything here. For me, you two and your affairs are something I cannot ignore."
“…”
"You really don't want to say it?"
“…”
I was silent for a long time, and I struggled for a long time, and finally said, "It's about his father."
“…”
This time, Pei Yuanhao frowned. I glanced at him before saying, "Liu Shizhou, Lord Liu."
He raised his eyebrows slightly again.
Qinghan's life experience has always been unclear before. Even now, Wei Ningyuan has already recognized his ancestors and Qinghan has already recognized Liu Li. In fact, I can't tell whether he is really from the Liu family. Pei Yuanhao may not be able to tell clearly, maybe only God knows.
Pei Yuanhao hesitated for a moment before saying, "Liu Shizhou?"
I said, "Your Majesty should still remember that when Lord Liu was assassinated in Yangzhou, the people were heartbroken. After Qinghan learned about his life experience, he wanted to figure out one thing - who ordered the assassination of Lord Liu."
Pei Yuanhao glanced at me and said, "Actually, I once thought this was strange."
I looked at him in confusion: "What's strange?"
"I was a prince at the time. The officials sent by the imperial court to Yangzhou - I actually know what they are. Yangzhou is rich and famous all over the world. If you are not in good self-control, the honest officials will gradually become corrupt officials. Not many people can close their eyes in front of gold and silver."
I hurriedly said, "But Lord Liu Shizhou is a clean official."
Although I have never seen him with my own eyes, his official reputation in Yangzhou is very good, and even Huang Tianba praised him very much, and even felt very sorry for his death. It was precisely because of his death that his suspicion of the actions of Changmingzong had a rift with the life of Changmingzong.
Pei Yuanhao said: "Of course I know that he is a clean official. If I don't know, I wouldn't have sent his son to Yangzhou. It's a pity-"
Unfortunately, Liu Yi also died in Yangzhou.
I asked, "What is that strange about His Majesty?"
Pei Yuanhao looked up at me: "Those assassins assassins assassinated corrupt officials - although they were detrimental to the court, I may not be able to see it in my heart. However, Liu Shizhou is a clear and honest official, why do they still assassinate him?"
“…”
"Killing corrupt officials is beneficial to the people; what is the meaning of killing innocent officials?"
I was stunned for a moment.
I have never thought about this problem before.
What Huang Tianba said at the time was that Mo Tieyi and the others were hostile to the court, so they would take action as long as they were officials of the court.
However, after all, they are not free killers, but people from Changmingzong. Their actions are controlled and controlled by others.
To put it another way, if it was my father who really ordered it—
Then why did he order the assassination of a honest official?
I know that my father is not a headless and mindless man who only knows how to move his fists. On the contrary, he is well-read and knowledgeable. Even though there are not many students in Xishan Academy now who can surpass him.
It is impossible for him to order a killing without knowing the other party's falsehood, but if he knows that the truth and truth and knows that Liu Shizhou is a clean and good official, it is even more impossible to kill him.
This is the key to the problem.
I suddenly felt something coming out of my mind, but I felt like I was dragging that thought down with all my might. I frowned and thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out. I could only look up and look at Pei Yuanhao: "Why?"
Pei Yuanhao shook his head and said, "This is something I didn't think clearly when I was a prince, but later, too many things happened, and I never paid attention to this case. Now I think that if Liu Qinghan really wants to investigate, this is what he should investigate."
“…”
"Instead of taking revenge blindly, for tooth to teeth, for blood to blood."
“…”
This sentence felt particularly uncomfortable when he said it, but I frowned and couldn't relieve my god for a long time.
If Pei Yuanhao's words are really correct, is that Liu Shizhou's death not an ordinary assassination?
If that's true, then cold-
