Bao Ye

Early the next morning, when it was still dark, a very soft voice came from outside the bedroom door: "General, the commander asked you to go to the study. The warden of the No. [-] Prison is here."

Wen Xinyang opened his eyes, but didn't respond, and turned his head to look at Chi Yunfei who was sleeping in his arms.Chi Yunfei slept very restlessly that night, his usual whining and chirping like a piglet disappeared, and he frowned all night, and would wake up with a start if there was any movement.

The last time the two assassins broke into the main tent, they didn't frighten him, but this time, probably because the deceased was someone he knew, and the other party was an undercover agent who had been lurking for many years, the impact on him was so great that he was greatly affected. .

Wen Xinyang sighed inwardly, stared at Chi Yunfei with deep eyes for a long time before slowly getting up, although he tried his best to lighten his movements, he still woke Chi Yunfei up.The man who usually sleeps with his belly exposed is extremely poor and heartless. He opened his eyes suddenly, and his distracted eyes focused for a while before he realized where he was.

"Hush." ​​Wen Xinyang hugged his wife, and gently kissed her on the forehead, "I have something to go out, you continue to sleep."

"What's the matter?" Chi Yunfei woke up and looked at him vigilantly, "Is it related to Yuan Ling? What did you find?"

Wen Xinyang patted him reassuringly: "Father told me to go to the study, it should be because the assassin who was caught before was willing to speak."

assassin……

Chi Yunfei almost forgot about it, raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, and said, "His burn is healed?"

"Skin ulceration, infection, high fever for a long time, almost unable to survive." Wen Xinyang said, "But his life is serious, and the current situation is stable. Fearing that there will be changes in the future, the warden has urgently arranged manual interrogation. Now It should have worked out."

Chi Yunfei nodded: "Go ahead, don't worry about me. I won't sleep, let the kitchen bring breakfast."

"Okay." Wen Xinyang didn't force him to continue to sleep, and rubbed his hair, "I'll tell you as soon as there's a result, don't think too much."

"Ah."

After Wen Xinyang changed his clothes and went out, Chi Yunfei sat in front of the bed for a while. Although he didn't want to recall, his mind was still full of Yuan Ling's appearance before he died.

The other party tried to hold his breath, the unwilling look, the persistent eyes, all carried a deep meaning that he couldn't understand - or he couldn't figure out the real reason why the other party was so persistent and unwilling.And that reason must be something more important than the other party's life.

——He sacrificed for his own ideals, and he got what he wanted.

Thinking of Wen Xinyang's previous words, Chi Yunfei was at a loss, and only recovered when the boy outside the door said he was going to bring food in, and said in a hoarse voice, "Come in."

He went behind the screen to change his clothes, when he came out the servant girl had brought Yang Yang along, and was sitting at the table obediently waiting for him to eat together.

Chi Yunfei was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly: "Yangyang got up so early today?"

The little maid next to her couldn't hold back anymore, and said in a low voice: "Young master always gets up early, it's Master Chi, you...cough..."

Chi Yunfei laughed, lifted the hem of his clothes and sat down, "Then let's eat first."

All the servants who served were surprised. Chi Yunfei rarely talked today and had a quiet meal, which made them very uncomfortable.Even Yang Yang sneaked a few glances at him curiously, but Yang Yang's tutor was very good, so he didn't dare to talk too much, until he put down his chopsticks, he said crisply: "What's wrong, Brother Chi?"

"Ok?"

"Unhappy?" Yang Yang looked at him and said in a daze, "I'll give you Yang Yang's toys, okay?"

Chi Yunfei raised his hand and pinched Yang Yang's face, feeling the heavy depression in his heart a lot better, and said, "Thank you Yang Yang, how about we play together?"

"Um!!"

So after the meal, the servants brought the young master's favorite toys, including bows and arrows, wooden horses, and toy guns—the toy guns were made as if they were real, and they could be disassembled and assembled.

Chi Yunfei played with Yangyang for a long time, holding the bow and arrow in his hand - it was specially made by Wen Xinyang, a toy suitable for children, it has no lethality, and it can be pulled apart without much effort. Also very light.But even so, no less attention has been paid to the details. The head and tail of the bow are engraved with complicated patterns, and the middle is wrapped with beef tendon, which protects the hand very well, and it is also very textured when held.

Chi Yunfei was sitting in the courtyard, looking at the bull's-eye not far away, the distance was not far away, it was a child's play for adults, but it was still a bit difficult for Yang Yang.His bow posture was standard, and although most of the arrows fell outside, the child still had a good time.

Yang Yang stood on the stool, hit the bull's-eye with his last arrow, and jumped down sweating, "It's your turn!"

Chi Yunfei raised his jaw and made a terrific look: "Watch Brother Chi perform a hundred-step piercing for you!"

The little girl next to her covered her mouth and hid her smile: "It's only a few steps away, even a blind man can shoot it."

Then Chi Yunfei performed a miss on the spot.

Yang Yang's face was sullen and serious: "Not bad!"

Chi Yunfei: "..."

Chi Yunfei gave him a funny look: "Is this not bad?"

"It's only a little short!" Yang Yang gestured intimately, and comforted him, "I will definitely win next time! Don't be discouraged!"

Chi Yunfei didn't expect that one day he would need a furry child to comfort him, he couldn't laugh or cry for a moment, put down his bow and sat on the steps, and waved to the child: "Come here, Yangyang."

Yang Yang bounced past, and was pulled into his arms by Chi Yunfei, who gave him a firm hug.

Yang Yang's fleshy face was squeezed in front of Chi Yunfei's chest, and it was deformed. He tried his best to look up at Chi Yunfei's face, and said vaguely: "...Brother Chi...your face...it hurts ..."

Chi Yunfei kissed him hard on the top of his head, relaxed his strength, hugged the child on his lap and sat down, and said, "Thank you, Brother Chi is in a much better mood."

Yang Yang looked at him suspiciously, but didn't ask any further questions, and nodded: "Be happy."

"Ah."

"Brother, Jasmine invited me to go to Jin Fu's class tomorrow to listen to her practice. Can I go?"

After what happened yesterday, Chi Yunfei finally began to take many things into his heart. The days that he once took for granted were not so taken for granted.There were too many dangers lurking in Yuecheng that he didn't understand, so he didn't dare to relax his vigilance, thought for a while and said, "Brother will accompany you."

"Ok!"

When Wen Xinyang came back to have dinner with the senior and the junior at noon, Chi Yunfei had already adjusted his mood.

Wen Xinyang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his smile, but his heart ached a little, he was so contradictory and complicated, he stretched out his hand and pulled him over for a short but sweet kiss, with tenderness, the tip of his tongue traced the soft lips , with deep eyes: "What did you do this morning?"

Yang Yang stood aside and frowned, "Father, Brother Chi did nothing wrong, don't bite him!"

"Play with Yangyang." Chi Yunfei revealed his sweet dimples, and said, "Come on, eat first. Let's talk after eating."

The meal was enjoyed happily, and no one mentioned those bad things.Today is a rare sunny day, the warm winter sun shines on the blue tiles, and the large bamboo forest in the corner sways gently with the wind. It makes people wonder where in the world can there be quiet years that are at your fingertips?It's just that everyone has their own troubles, it's just that everyone learns to strengthen their hearts and work hard to support the world for the people they want to protect.

After lunch, Yang Yang went to take a nap as usual, but was taken away by his servants.

The room became quiet, Wen Xinyang closed the doors and windows, poured two cups of hot tea, and talked about business: "The assassin has recruited."

Chi Yunfei's eyes moved: "Are you sure he is telling the truth?"

"If he wants to survive, he has to rely on our doctor. He is seriously injured." Wen Xinyang said in a deep voice, "His employer can't control him right now."

Chi Yunfei nodded: "How to say?"

"He is indeed hired by a third party. It has nothing to do with the North or those foreigners." Wen Xinyang said, "The employers behind him are the Liu family, the Bai family and the Hong family. We can basically confirm that among the major families in Yuecheng The key figures responsible for lobbying other families and colluding with foreigners are these three families."

"What's the purpose?" Chi Yunfei frowned, "Is there any evidence?"

"The inside story of the corruption in the camp was revealed, and they wanted someone to take the blame. Just like we originally speculated, they would switch the confessions that identified other families and pin all the evidence on the recruiter. This would have been no problem, even if we Suspicion, but because there is no evidence for the time being, there is nothing they can do about it. At most, the Liu family will only admit that they want Zhang Xuzhi to please me and climb up the relationship with the Wen family. Punishment is just a drop in the bucket for them."

Chi Yunfei pondered for a moment and understood: "There was no problem at first, but they didn't expect that I would suspect the Yu family, and saw that the matter might be exposed, so they simply kidnapped me and wanted to plant it on other forces?"

"Yes, they want to frame President Xu in the south and cause conflicts between the Wen family and the south." Wen Xinyang nodded, "The original plan was to hide you, spread news that was not good for the south, and then lure the Wen family to The place where you are hiding. But I didn't expect you to be on guard, so their plan didn't have time to implement."

That group of people thought very well, it was dark under the lights at first—the assassin who had been looking for did not escape at all, but hid in Yuecheng, and was in the home of a wealthy merchant in Yuecheng, which was unimaginable at all.Unexpectedly, Chi Yunfei's intuition was unusual, and he noticed that the Yu family used Yu Datou as an excuse to invite many doctors.

If it was really exposed, they couldn't kill Yu's family members overnight, so in desperation, they had no choice but to kidnap him and try to avert the trouble.But I don't know that the mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind.

"The assassin has the deposit given by the employer in advance and the signed certificate of life and death, with the signatures of both parties on it." Wen Xinyang said, "This group of people live with their heads on their belts, so naturally they must be dealt with first. Afterwards, it is a rule of the Tao to sign life and death certificates after accepting tasks, and once they die, the rewards will be paid to their families."

Chi Yunfei's eyes lit up: "So we have all the witnesses and evidence!"

"Although there are some witnesses, it is impossible for them to accept their fate like this. After all, it is a crime of beheading and implicating the whole family, and they are backed by Zheng Qihong. Even if we want to severely punish them, Zheng Qihong will probably find a way to save their lives. .Otherwise, wouldn’t everything be in vain? Zheng Qihong doesn’t have the patience to do it all over again.”

Chi Yunfei answered, "But your backup has already been laid out early."

Thinking of this, Chi Yunfei showed an expression of admiration, his eyes filled with appreciation, he clapped his hands and smiled and said, "You hid the secret of Bai Huang's death and isolated the Bai family for so long in order to make them suspect each other and fight each other. Now that the time has come, with all the witnesses and material evidence, conviction is a certainty. The assassin even injured Bai Huang's life. The Bai family will not let them go. It's too late."

Wen Xinyang smiled casually: "Exactly."
