The Golden Age Chapter 65: Assassin

The assassin assassinated the old man Qian on the shoulder, immediately drew out the long sword, and then wanted to attack Pan Weixing, but there was no chance.

Although Pan Weixing is not young, he is not slow at all when escaping, and he has already hid behind Qin Xiao even rolling around.

Ma Xingguo's strength is not small, and he rushed over holding the case. Liu Hongju held a big knife and rushed forward bravely. Tonight's banquet, there were many officials, and there were soldiers guarding inside and outside the Qian Mansion beforehand. It was heard from the lobby. The movement came, and soldiers rushed in long ago.

The assassin obviously knew that he had missed the opportunity to assassinate Pan Weixing, but Qin Xiao also reacted, picking up the flask on the table and slamming it at the assassin.

The assassin opened the hip flask with a sword, and with a single kick, the whole person floated backwards.

"Grab the assassin!" Qian Guiting finally reacted at this time, rushed forward, and hugged the old man. Seeing that the old man was injured on his shoulder, the blood was flowing, and he said in amazement: "Father, how about you... ?"

The assassin was quick in his actions, obviously a trivial effort. He ran to the side window of the lobby in an instant and was about to jump out of the window. However, Chen Xi was already walking with him, just a few steps behind the person, and said in a deep voice: " Stay!" The hand grabbed a hip flask and broke it instantly in his hand. With a sharp wave of his arm, the fragments of the hip flask turned into hidden weapons and hit him out. When the assassin jumped out of the window, a fragment hit his thigh.

It's just that the assassin was really tough, he didn't hum, and jumped straight out of the window, and Liu Hongju and his team also jumped out of the window to chase the assassin.

In the lobby, everyone was horrified and their eyes were full of fear. All this happened so suddenly. Who would have thought of attending a banquet at the first family in Suzhou, and with the presence of important officials in Suzhou, there would be assassins suddenly appearing .

The accurate target of the assassin was Suzhou Assassin Pan Weixing. As a local officer of Datang, he dared to assassinate the Assassin. Of course, his background was extraordinary.

Qin Xiao has helped Pan Weixing at this time, and said with concern: "Boss, how are you?"

Pan Weixing's face was pale, still in shock, his lips moved, and he couldn't speak for a while.

"Father, do you want it?" Qian Guiting was flustered at this time, and said loudly: "Hurry up... please doctor!"

The old lady Qian tried to hold on to herself, her face was also pale, she looked at Pan Weixing, and said anxiously: "Master Governor, are you all right?"

Pan Weixing looked at the old lady Qian with a very ugly face, and asked: "Old lady, where did this assassin come from?"

"Does your lord suspect that the assassin was arranged by us?" Qian Guiting's face was even more miserable, astonished.

Don’t drive the guard in Suzhou calmly and said: “Old Mrs. Qian, you’re hosting a banquet today. You took the initiative to fight for it, and the assassin appeared in your house. Don’t you say you don’t know anything?”

The old man was still calm at this time and sighed: "The old man really does not know where the assassin came from, and the old man will never harm the heart of Lord Assassin. It is difficult to argue for a while. When the assassin is caught, you can interrogate on the spot. If the assassin is My money family arranges, the old and the Qian family old and young, are willing to fall for the law."

The lobby was silent for a while.

The assassin appeared at the Qian's family, and the dinner tonight was arranged by the Qian's family, so of course the Qian's family was the first suspect.

After a while, Liu Hongju came back with a look of chagrin, and Ma Xingguo immediately asked: "The assassin caught it?"

"Return to your lord, stab

The guest was so light-hearted that he overcame the wall and walked on flat ground. We kept chasing him, but the assassin was nowhere to be found. "Liu Hongju is a little frightened.

Ma Xingguo said angrily: "A group of trash, a group of soldiers grabbed a wounded assassin, and even let him run away and spread it out. What kind of face is there to meet people? The young master injured his thigh. He has limited mobility and does not run very far. He immediately mobilizes people to search around the Qian Mansion to see if he is still hiding here, and sends people to block the surrounding roads. In any case, the assassin must be arrested and brought to justice. Otherwise, You all go to jail by yourself." Then he turned to Pan Wei and said: "My lord, I am incompetent to subordinate officials. I beg my lord to punish me."

"You did your best." After the assassin appeared, Ma Xingguo and Liu Hongju did not hesitate to take action. Pan Weixing also knew that the assassin's skills were too strong, and it was not that the assassins were incompetent. They glanced at the old man. , Thoughtful.

Wei Tairan said to Ma Xing State Road: "Ma Changshi, immediately transfer people over, first surround the Qian's house, the assassin appears at the Qian's house, and the Qian's family can't shirk the blame."

"My lord, please be honest." Dong Yuan suddenly stepped forward and said: "Everyone has seen the scene just now. The assassin appeared. If it weren't for Mrs. Qian to come forward, he would push Master Shishi away. , I am afraid that Lord Cishi has already suffered from the assassin's poisonous hand. If the Qian family really has the heart to murder Lord Cishi, why would the old lady protect Lord Cishi regardless of his own life and death?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone present nodded slightly, deeply agreeing.

"If an adult is killed in the Qian's house, none of the Qian's will be able to escape." Wei Tairan's face was grim. The dignified governor was assassinated in the Qian's house. He is very serious and of course can't let it go: "Of course Lord Qian can't let the adult be assassinated? "As soon as I said this, I knew it was wrong, and that was tantamount to defending the Qian family.

Dong Yuan nodded and said: "Don’t drive what the Lord said, Master Shi was assassinated here, and the Qian family can’t escape the blame. Therefore, the old lady Qian is confused, and it is impossible to arrange for the assassin to do it here. Dead end?"

The old lady Qian gave Dong Yuan a grateful look, and said, "I would like to ask the governor to observe it."

Chen Xi carried behind his back with one hand and said nothing, but Qin Xiao was thoughtful. At this time, he finally said to Pan Wei: "My lord, Mr. Dong's words are true. The officials also thought that the assassin was instructed to do the assassination. The real culprit was not Old Madam Qian, who didn’t respond to his appointment. Fortunately, Old Madam Qian responded in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous." He paused and said, "Before the assassin was captured, the lord should go back to the Assassin’s Mansion, Ma Changshi, and much more. Transfer people to protect the Assassin's Mansion, so that the assassins should never have the opportunity to approach the adults."

Ma Xingguo thought that I would use you to teach me about this, but Qin Xiao said that there is nothing wrong, he can only say: "Come on, **** the old man back to the house." For now, I don't care about the Qian family, Ma Xingguo. He personally escorted Pan Weixing away. Others saw such a big event happening tonight. They knew that there would be martial law in Suzhou city next, and whether the assassin was still hiding in his ex-husband and did not leave. The land has become a place of right and wrong, and other people left the Qian Mansion one after another without staying.

Liu Hongju did not leave immediately, and still searched the Qian Mansion with some soldiers.

Except for the Qian Mansion, Ma Xingguo helped Pan Weixing into the carriage and led people to **** the carriage like a copper wall and iron wall. Qin Xiao and Chen Xi could not be controlled for a while. The others also left separately. Qin Xiao was about to get on the carriage, but listened behind him. Someone said: "Master Shaoqing wait a minute!"

Qin Xiao turned around and saw Dong Yuan come over and asked, "Is there something going on, Master Dong?"

Dong Yuan looked around and saw that Chen Xi had already taken the lead in the carriage, and the others didn’t care about it, so he whispered: "Master Shaoqing, if I have free time in the past two days, can I go to the cold house for a cup of tea? The cold house is not far away. , It’s only one street away from here."

Qin Xiao did not expect that Dong Yuan would suddenly invite himself to drink tea, but he also knew that things were definitely not as simple as drinking tea. After thinking about it, seeing Dong Yuan looking around, his face was not very good, and he nodded and said: "Master Dong invited, I'm here for myself these two days."

Dong Yuan arched his hands and didn't say much, turning around and walking away quickly.

Getting on the carriage, Chen Xi was already sitting in the carriage, and the carriage moved around, following the vehicle in front to the governor's mansion.

When they arrived at the Cishi Mansion, everyone flocked Pan Wei to the inner hall. Ma Xingguo ordered other officials and soldiers to retreat, leaving only himself and Wei Tairan to accompany Pan Weixing. When Qin Xiao and Chen Xi came in, Ma Xingguo just took a look. Did not speak much.

Wei Tairan poured a cup of tea for Pan Weixing. Pan Weixing was in shock, and after drinking it all, his emotions calmed down a lot.

"Fortunately, I didn't hurt the adults. I am very lucky in misfortune." Wei Tairan let out a long sigh of relief.

Pan Weixing's face is still ugly, and he said: "It's really unreasonable that there should be an assassin assassinating the old man and rejuvenating the country. In any case, you have to arrest the assassin. The old man wants to know who is going to kill the old man."

"Does your lord have enemies here?" Chen Xi asked suddenly.

Ma Xingguo said in a bad mood: "Enemies? Those rebels, of course, regard adults as enemies. Adults have been in Suzhou for more than three years. They have been officials and are well-loved by the people. Adults have always been generous and don’t hold grudges with others, except for conspiracy. Rebel thief, who will be cruel to an adult?"

"So, there are anti-thief in Suzhou, you don't know anything?" Chen Xi said coldly.

Ma Xingguo was stunned, and immediately knew that he was improper. He saw that Qin Xiao was young and his rank was lower than himself, so he didn't have much respect from the beginning, but he ignored that there was a nonsense beside Qin Xiao. The Ziyi Supervisor is a young superintendent.

"Suzhou was peaceful before, so naturally there would be no anti-thief." Wei Tairan hurriedly said: "However, people's hearts are unpredictable, and some anti-thieves are unruly, and they won't write on their faces. Since there are assassins appearing today, naturally If you want to follow this clue, you must wipe out this chaotic party."

Pan Weixing pondered for a moment before he said: "Tranquilly, it's getting late, you can arrange a place for Qin Shaoqing and Qin Shaoqing. If you have news about the assassin, please report to me."

"My lord, don't bother." Qin Xiao immediately said, "I live at the inn for the time being, so I don't need to bother." In his heart, he thought that he had told Sister Rong where he lived. If Sister Rong went to find herself, she would move. Going out, doesn't it mean that Sister Rong is gone.

"Everything at the post house is readily available." Wei Tairan said: "The two can directly live in the post house, without having to live in the inn, otherwise others will think that we are inadequately treated."

Qin Xiao smiled and said: "At the moment, chasing the assassin is the most important matter. We don't have to worry about it." He stood up and said: "Master Governor will take a rest early. If he is not disturbed by the official, he will leave first."

Pan Weixing nodded, Chen Xi didn't say much, stood up, and was about to go out, but heard rapid footsteps outside, a soldier appeared out of the door breathlessly, kneeling down Land, report: "My lord, assassin...The trace of the assassin has been found!"
