Chapter 234
After an intensive search, the possibility of assassins lurking in the paddock was finally ruled out. Emperor Xingwen finally ordered the prince to escort everyone back to the palace, and let the fifth prince and King Jin be responsible for arresting and investigating the escaped Western Region remnants.

Compared with the thrilling scene in the paddock, the place where ordinary people live in the capital is calm and calm. However, on the street, two tall men in ordinary clothes are hurrying.The frantic pace didn't stop until they came to the outside of a tall courtyard.

The two men looked at each other, and one of them immediately stepped forward and knocked on the door.The doorkeeper lazily opened the door, frowned and said, "Who are you? What's the matter?"

"We are Mr. Xie's business guests, and we are here today to discuss something important."

"Our master is out today, if you have anything to do, come back tomorrow!"

"Little brother, we are in a hurry and we can't wait until tomorrow. If it is possible, can you let us wait at the mansion for Mr. Xie to come back? This is our greeting card. Mr. Xie once said that if there is something Looking for him, but go directly to An Yihou's mansion to discuss."

"Fuping, let them in! These two are indeed father's friends, how can you be so negligent when you come to visit your distinguished guests?"

The girl's crisp voice rang out, but it was Xie Xinqin who had just returned from her trip.It was a coincidence that because she couldn't attend the court banquet, she went out to Xie's jewelry store in the morning, and ran into Song Qingwu who was looking for Xie Anhua.It was only during the conversation that the two Nanyang people who were doing business with Xie Anhua had urgent matters and would leave early tomorrow morning.Before leaving, he had to sign a cooperation agreement with Xie Anhua.Who would have thought that Xie Anhua went to the court celebration banquet today and was not at home at all.

Song Qingwu was also very impatient, and was about to visit the door in person, but met Xie Xinqin.As the second young lady of the Xie family, she naturally has the right to know about this matter.Unexpectedly, just after she came back from the jewelry store, she happened to meet two Nanyang people who came to her door.These two people, Xie Xinqin, did have an impression, she had seen them appear in a jewelry store before, and they were the distinguished guests of her father, Xie Anhua.

"Yes, Second Miss! The two of you please!"

Xie Xinqin opened his mouth, and the servant naturally had no reason to keep people out, and welcomed him in himself.After all, Xie Xinqin is a female family member, so it is not convenient to talk to outsiders, so in the end, she can only leave the matter of entertaining guests to the housekeeper.

The guard at the door didn't know about these two Nanyang people, but the housekeeper knew very well that he was by Xie Anhua's side and also handled the business of the Anyihou Mansion for him, so he naturally knew that these two people in front of him were big clients of his master.

"It turns out to be two gentlemen. The master has already explained. If the two come, they will go to the study and wait for the discussion. However, the younger one does not know when the master will come back today. I am afraid that the two of you will have to wait a little longer." .”

"It doesn't matter, we have something urgent to discuss with Mr. Xie. Today we have to meet him no matter what. We can wait no matter how long it takes!"

Outside the gate of An Yi Hou Mansion, in a remote dark alley not far away.

"how?"

"It's already gone in, notify the master, and act immediately!"

Song Qingwu looked at the house not far away, with a meaningful smile on his face, the building was about to collapse, and there was no point in keeping this place any longer.

"Master, there's news from the Blood Moon Guard that it's time to do something."

"Very good, let our people prepare immediately, and arrange two copies of the evidence, just in case. This time, I will make the capital no longer have the Xie family in the Anyi Hou Mansion!" The deep and cold voice gradually dissipated in the wind.

A carriage slowly stopped at the gate of An Yihou's Mansion. Thinking of everything that happened today, Xie Anhua still had lingering fears in his heart.Although he didn't witness it with his own eyes, his most valued eldest daughter almost suffered a random disaster, which was enough to make Xie Anhua terrified.

"Yue'er, I am afraid that the matter of the remnants of the Western Regions will not be resolved for a long time. In my opinion, this year's court celebration banquet may not be able to continue. From now on, we should stay at the house honestly and prepare for it with peace of mind. Your marriage to King Jin."

"What the father said is that the daughter also feels that the recent turmoil has continued, and it is better to be more peaceful."

Xie Xinyue nodded, with an unconcealable tired look on her face. Seeing this, Xie Anhua didn't intend to ask any more questions. A group of people entered the mansion and decided to take a good rest.

"Master, there are two distinguished guests who have been waiting for you for a long time. The younger one invited them to the study. Master, they are the two guests from Nanyang." The housekeeper took a step forward and told Xie Anhua about it in a low voice.

"Oh? Wasn't Song Qingwu in charge of entertaining them? Why did I suddenly come to visit in person?"

"I heard that something happened. These two Nanyang people decided to leave the capital early tomorrow morning. You need to negotiate and sign the contract yourself, Mr. Song. You can't decide."

"So that's how it is. I see. I'm going to meet guests in the study." Xie Anhua nodded knowingly. Naturally, he had to personally intervene in the final implementation of the business.If Song Qingwu made the decision without authorization, Xie Anhua would have to be wary of him.

In the study room, there was a faint smell of blood. As soon as Xie Anhuafu entered, he found two tall foreign men who stood up suddenly and rushed towards him in surprise.

"Reporting to your Highnesses, the whereabouts of those two assassins have been found! Commander Tan has already led the troops to rush there!"

The military and horse divisions of the five cities are divided into southeast, northwest and central, and each has a command envoy for management.And the person the guard mentioned was Tan Yi, the commander of the soldiers and horses of Dongcheng.This person was born as a commoner, but his personality is extremely cold, basically he doesn't give anyone face, and he is known as a cold-faced commander.But no matter what, this person had already found a clue, Mu Yunshen and the fifth prince did not dare to neglect, and immediately let the guards lead the way to follow.

However, looking at the familiar street, Mu Yunshen's expression sank, and an ominous premonition emerged in his heart.

An Yihou Mansion.

"Master Xie, you must save us! This operation failed, we were discovered, and now we must leave the capital immediately to save our lives!"

"Yes, sir, please act quickly, otherwise, our entire army will be wiped out this time!"

The distinguished guest who was supposed to be treated with respect by him suddenly turned into a younger brother who begged him for help, without the slightest reserved and noble appearance at the beginning. This scene made Xie Anhua a little confused.He suddenly felt that his brain seemed to be a little insufficient. What the hell are these two people talking about?
"Two, what do you mean by that?"

"Master, something is wrong! People from Wucheng Bingmasi suddenly ran over and surrounded our Hou Mansion!"

At this moment, the butler rushed in in a panic, with a look of horror on his face.Xie Anhua frowned, turned around and looked at the butler: "What's going on? What are the people from Wucheng Bingma Division coming to our Xie Mansion for?"

"Master Xie, something is wrong, they are already chasing you! We must hide immediately!"

The two Nanyang people turned pale with shock, and following their words, Xie Anhua was even more at a loss for a while.I saw that one of the Nanyang people directly touched the mechanism Xie Anhua hid in the study. With a bang, the stone wall was opened, and the two of them ran in immediately, obviously wanting to hide.

"You, you."

Xie Anhua opened his mouth tremblingly, his eyes widened in disbelief. This secret room is the most secret place in the Anyihou Mansion, and only the previous Patriarchs knew about it.These two Nanyang people obviously came to Xie's house for the first time, how did they know the existence of the secret room?

Before Xie Anhua recovered from the shock, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, a tall man in military uniform with a serious expression rushed in with a team of guards, and said with a sullen face: "Come on, catch him!"

"Master Tan, what are you doing? I am also an imperial official, and my rank is even higher than yours. Why do you arrest me?" The guards rushed forward, and it was Xie Anhua who was arrested.At this moment, his face turned purple and blue, and he glared at Tan Yi angrily.

"The escaped assassins from the Western Regions, I have traced them all the way. They clearly fled into the Marquis of An Yi's Mansion! Mr. Xie, I advise you to be more sensible and hand over those two remnants of the Western Regions. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude. !"

"Assassins from the Western Regions, what nonsense!" Xie Anhua retorted uneasily, but his heart sank to the bottom in an instant. How could this happen? What is going on?

"Harboring assassins, but still refusing to admit it, if you find someone, Mr. Xie can still be so confident, I will obey you! Come, search for me! No one is allowed to enter or leave the Anyihou Mansion, not even a fly." Let it go!"

Tan Yi snorted coldly, and the guards immediately searched the house.The butler was already trembling with fright, and lay limp and exhausted. In comparison, Xie Anhua was not much better.In the chaos, he finally figured out the crux of the matter, and his face turned pale!
Those two men are now hiding in the back room of his study, Xie Anhua can only pray secretly, and they must not be discovered.Otherwise, he would not be able to speak clearly even if he had ten mouths.This is a serious crime of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and the crime of harboring the remnants of the Western Regions, the Anyihou Mansion simply cannot afford it!That's the fate of ransacking the family and exterminating the clan!

Thinking of this, Xie Anhua's forehead was covered with cold sweat, no, from the very beginning, these two foreigners came for him!Sudden visits, weird calls for help, failed actions, even knowing the secret room of his study, and, moreover, the key that he only had...

Oops!

If these two people came here for the Marquis of An Yi, how could they easily let him go?I'm afraid, they will even take the initiative to show their feet and be discovered, so as to achieve the purpose of framing him!
How to do?What should he do?
Xie Anhua's expression was pale. At this moment, it was as if a god of death raised a scythe behind him, and he could clearly feel the danger coming.

Tan Yi didn't pay too much attention to Xie Anhua, his sharp eyes carefully examined the room, and finally fell on the wall in the middle of the study.Xie Anhua followed his gaze, and his heart skipped a beat, as if it was about to jump out of his throat in the next second!
"What is this?" Tan Yi's eyes shrank, and he walked quickly towards the wall. At the same time, Xie Anhua discovered that there was a small piece of clothing exposed in the middle of the wall!The color of the corner of the clothes is clearly the same as that of the two Nanyang people just now!It should be because I was too anxious to close the mechanism when I was hiding, but I didn't have time to get out of my body, leaving this small piece of clothes behind!
