Zhong Niangzi Wanfu

Chapter 48 Kill Wen Yi

一
The investigation leads to the crown prince. Regardless of whether he is the crown prince in the end or not, if these people want to continue, they will inevitably fight against the crown prince who is far below one person in the capital and more than ten thousand people. The gap in status is so huge that it is a crime to slander the crown prince. It can save them from eternal disaster.

For the next few days, the three of Zhong Yan remained silent.

In fact, Wen Yi wanted to continue investigating. He wanted to know who the Crown Prince was.

If the Crown Prince is really the mastermind behind Luoxia Village, the previous kidnapping of Zhonglan, the tragic death of the Jiang and Shi family, and the indulgence of the One-Eyed Eagle over the years were all really his fault.If Beizhao inherits this man's hand in the future, what will happen to the people in each state?

He wanted to figure it out, but Zhong Lan asked him what he could do after he figured it out.

He didn't speak.

Zhong Lan sighed, asked him to think about the Wen family and Wen Shu, and advised him to think about it again.

The always impulsive young man finally fell silent and remained silent all day long. Except for occasionally visiting Jiang Shi, who was sometimes confused and sometimes clear, he spent the rest of the time immersed in reading countless files.

In the end, Zhong Lan asked anxiously, and Wen Yi just said to Zhong Lan dullly: "I understand what sister Lan said, please give me a few days to think about it. Maybe this time when eldest sister comes back from Dongchang, I will just let her go back without any further trouble."

Different from Wen Yi's entanglement, Shen Feng seemed much calmer.

But Zhong Lai understood that Shen Feng's stubbornness was no longer superficial but deep inside: he had his own way.He would consider the Shen family and himself, but he could not force himself to walk through the path in his heart.

At night, Zhong Yan huddled in Shen Feng's arms, listening to his deep breathing, looking at his long, slightly frowned eyebrows, sighing, and reaching out to cover his eyebrows.

Shen Feng didn't open his eyes, but stretched out his hand to hold Zhong Lan's cold hand in front of his chest, and held the person in his arms tighter with his other hand.

"Not only have you been taking care of the yamen's affairs these past few days, but you've also been interrogating One-Eyed Eagle. Are you exhausted?"

"I'm fine." Shen Feng shook his head.

"You and Wen Yi, what are your plans for the future?"

"If it were just us, we would fight for the truth. But we are not unrelated people. We can't bring you into it." Shen Feng's deep voice came from above Zhong Lan's head.

"Besides, you are worried about our comfort and don't want us to continue investigating, right?"

Zhong Lan hugged Shen Feng's waist: "I'm sorry, I'm scared."

Shen Feng didn't reply, just buried his head in her neck and sighed silently.

"Sir! The one-eyed eagle is dead!" Jiang Liu's anxious voice came from outside the door.

The two people on the couch suddenly opened their eyes and stood up wearing their clothes.

Shen Yan put on his outer robe and went out and asked, "What's going on?"

"Shen Zheng was fine when he was released from prison. When he was checked at night, he was found dead in the prison. News from the county prison said that there was black blood left in his seven orifices, so he must have been poisoned."

"Let Jiangchuan call the widower over."

"It's gone."

The voices of the two gradually faded away.

Zhong Lan was sitting on the couch with his clothes on and his eyes slightly closed.

"Girl." Chang Huan lit the lamp and quickly poured a cup of tea for Zhong Lan, "This is a terrible thing, girl, please drink some tea to get rid of the bad luck."

Zhong Lan took the tea cup: "Chang Huan, if you are bitten by an ant crawling on your hand, what will you do?"

Chang Huan didn't understand why Zhong Lan asked such a question, and replied: "Of course it's a pinch."

"What if the ant survived the first disaster from you?"

"If you can't squeeze it to death, then squeeze it again?" Chang Huan was even more confused, "Why does the girl ask like this?"

Zhong Lan gave a bitter smile: "If you can't squeeze it to death, then squeeze it again. You have to wait until it is finished. Have you never thought of letting that ant go?"

"Girl, those ants are so small, there are as many as you want, they are like the soil on the ground, what are you doing pity for them?" Chang Huan curled his lips, stepped forward and took Zhong Yan's hand to examine carefully, "Did you get bitten by ants? "

Zhong Lan gently brushed Chang Huan's hand away: "Silly Chang Huan..."

Suddenly, the sound of fighting with sharp blades came from outside the room, and the two were shocked.

"Quickly send someone to go to the county government through the small gate." Zhong Lan quickly turned off the lamp, put on his clothes, picked up Shen Fie's sword, got up and went out to investigate.

Chang Huan, who had followed Zhong Lan over the years, no longer looked as hurried as before. He calmly asked Chang Xi in the courtyard to report to Shen Fie, and then quietly walked out of the door while protecting Zhong Lan.

The sound came from the direction of the guest room. Wen Yi and Jiang Shi were now living in the guest room. Zhong Lan was so scared that she chased them all the way.As soon as they passed the archway, they saw Wen Yi and his Yun Zi generation guarding the door of Jiang Shi's room, fighting with a group of men in black.

Zhong Lan looked carefully at the group of men in black: black robes and black robes, and under the robes that were inadvertently fluttering, one could vaguely see the golden pattern of four-clawed flying fish.

She knew that she didn't know martial arts, so she didn't dare to go forward to make trouble for Wen Yi, but she looked around but saw a long-term worker and a barrel arrow leaning on a stone table beside her, so she quickly picked it up.

The man in black was skilled in martial arts and forced everyone in Wen Yi to lean towards the door.

Seeing a man approaching Wen Yi's gate with a sword, Zhong Lan took aim with his bow and shot an arrow.

She was strong but not accurate enough. She only hit the sleeve corner of the man in black, but the man in black was obviously taken aback.

Wen Yi seized this opportunity and stepped forward with his sword, removing the veil from the man in black.

Zhong Lan was startled: "Mao Xun?"

Mao Xun's eyes flashed coldly and he ignored Zhong Lan who was not far away. He just stared at Wen Yi: "Kill Wen Yi."

two

After receiving the order, everyone aimed their swords at Wen Yi and launched a stronger offensive.

Wen Yi was covered in paint and had knife wounds on both legs. He was leaning in front of Jiang Shi's door with difficulty. While struggling to fend off several people's deadly swords, he smiled sadly: "We are old acquaintances." Right? Is my life, Wen Yi, so valuable? Is it worth you spending so much effort to kill me? "

Yun Lang and others were held hostage by Mao Xun's men in black, and Wen Yi was exposed alive in front of Mao Xun.

Mao Xun stopped talking nonsense with Wen Yi, raised the sleeve arrow in his hand and aimed at Wen Yi's chest: "It's my fault that you blocked the way of the saint."

"No!" Zhong Lan was horrified and rushed forward with his sword.

That was the brother Wen Shu had been waiting for for three years. If something happened to Wen Yi, it would not be an exaggeration to say that Wen Shu would risk the entire Wen family.

Mao Xun shot an arrow, and it went straight to Wen Yi's heart.

Just as Wen Yi struggled to raise his sword to block it, the door behind him was suddenly opened: the mute woman stepped out of the door and blocked Wen Yi.

Seeing the sharp dagger penetrate the mute woman's thin body in front of him, Wen Yi's eyes widened with shock.

The mute girl still couldn't speak, so she only struggled to support Wen Yi's arm and slowly fell down. She opened her mouth to speak. For a long time, she couldn't make any sound, and she could only shed tears in pain.

Wen Yi's eyes were full of shock, and tears couldn't stop pouring out of his eyes.

Mao Xun only frowned slightly, loaded another arrow, and pointed it straight at Wen Yi.

"Mao Xun, do you really think that people like us are just born to swallow our anger!" Zhong Lan put aside the knife of the man in black and stood in front of Wen Yi and Jiang Shi.

"Why do you think that the person behind you can do whatever he wants because he is in a high position! We are the living people of Beizhao, not ants on the ground or lambs to be slaughtered!"

"We didn't do anything wrong, why should we suffer this unreasonable disaster!"

Zhong Lan was so angry that his whole body trembled, and he pointed at his heart: "If you want to kill Wen Yi, kill me first; if I don't die, I will fight with you until death!"

Mao Xun only thought that Zhong Lan was one of the thousands of people he had seen dying and struggling. With no expression on his face, he aimed the arrow in his sleeve aimed at Wen Yi at Zhong Lan.

Suddenly, several sharp arrows came through the clouds, and several unsuspecting men in black were hit by the arrows and fell to the ground.

"Kill!" Shen Feng arrived with the county soldiers and started fighting with the man in black.

Mao Xun didn't have many people with him. Even though he was very skilled, he still couldn't gain the advantage in numbers.

Jiang Chuan's archery skills penetrated Yang at a hundred steps, and shot through Mao Xun's arm with one arrow.

Mao Xun was in pain and had to lead his men to escape: "Escape!"

Zhong Lan lost his strength and fell heavily to the ground with his eyes blank.

Upon seeing this, Shen Feng stepped forward and picked him up. Seeing that he was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay."

"It will be okay, Shen Feng." Zhong Lan shook his head fiercely and looked at Jiang Shi who was killed by an arrow and Wen Yi who was seriously injured not far away, "It is impossible for us to live in peace. The current situation is that We are living against the current, and if we don’t go upstream, we will have no choice but to be slaughtered by others.”

"Let's investigate. At the very least, give justice to Miss Jiang and Wen Yi." Zhong Lan held back tears and held Shen Feng's hand tightly, his knuckles turning blue and white.

"You don't regret it even if you die?" Shen Feng asked steadily.

"We won't die. Those who care about human life should be damned!" Zhong Lan's face was pale, but his eyes were particularly cold.
