Chapter 925: Chapter 925-Life Is Too Big
Less than an hour after Liu Yun left, the Xie Residence was already surrounded by the 200 guards sent by Xie Xian.
Such a flamboyant move was made so quiet that it did not alarm the people in the residence.
The secret guards in the residence had long received the news. Xie Xian’s arrangement was to observe the area within a mile radius of the residence. If there was anything unusual, they had to know at the first moment. Not to mention the 200 over guards, they were trembling as they walked.
###
No one dared to break into the Xie family’s house that night.
It wasn’t that they didn’t, but the guards really didn’t like them. Although they didn’t make any noise and didn’t alert the Xie family, they were still in the open outside. It was as bright as day, and they were the brightest star in Jiankang City.
It was really eye-catching, but no one dared to barge in.
It was one thing to not be afraid of death, but it was another thing to force yourself to die even though you knew you were going to die. That was suicide without responsibility.
They fled in all directions. The pursuers behind them had already caught up. They did not fight in the Xie Manor, but outside the Yang Manor. The only fruit of victory for the two of them was to injure a guard. Then, a hole was pierced through their thigh. Before they could bite their tongues to commit suicide, their jaw had already been cleanly removed.
When the other assassin saw this, he smashed his head to the ground and died like a bloody gourd. He really had the courage to die.
Damn it, he was splashed with blood!
The living assassin wanted to die.
In his heart, he was cursing the other brother to death. If you have the will to die, you should have chewed the poison in your teeth. If it really splashed into his mouth, you should have thanked him for taking him along.
He really wasn’t afraid of the pain and kowtowed to death.
It was useless to splash the fishy smell in his mouth. It could only disgust him!
Bah!
However, his chin had been dislocated and he could not spit it out. He could only wait for the blood to flow out on its own.
She had never been so disgusting in her life!
“Splash all over me. This guy is really f * cking fierce.”Someone among the guards spat.
The butler of the sheep manor, who had long heard the sound, had never seen such a scene. At that time, he had let out a roar and walked over.
“What is it?” Someone had sharp ears and eyes.
There were also people who were even faster and rushed towards the Yang Manor’s main gate. They were afraid that assassins would enter and really hurt people. It would be bad if they did not do their job properly. Although they were not from the Xie family, it was not good to say.
Butler Yang peeked out through the crack in the door. The door was locked, and before the guard could kick it open, someone immediately jumped over the wall and saw Butler Yang on the ground. Before he could go forward, the guards in the Yang manor had already rushed over. They did not see the official uniform, but the first thing they saw was the gleaming knife.
“Who dares to trespass into the Yang Manor!” As he spoke, he raised his voice. The ten of them drew their sabers and rushed over.
” I’m in the zone
“F * ck!”
“A man from the Department of Guards!”
Before the people of the Yang Manor could put down their sabers, the guards outside the manor had already heard the sounds of fighting. They all stepped into the manor and raised their sabers to attack.
The ruckus lasted for the time it took to brew a cup of tea before it finally ended. Yang Fengming had also been alerted and came out.
After listening to the whole story, Xie Xian was not angry. That fellow protected his own family and used public tools for private use. He prevented even a fly from flying in. Instead, his family was the one who suffered.
If it wasn’t for the fact that their guards were capable, would they have been killed?
He was the General of the Central Army!
He was the one!
“Who did Xie Xian transfer?” He exploded.” What right does he have to mobilize the army? You have to tell me about the transfer of troops, right?” He was unwilling to join forces with Xie Xian and had left early. Who knew that such an explosive incident would actually happen later on.
The guards didn’t dare to offend their superiors, nor did they dare to offend Xie Xian. Naturally, they could only pretend to be a coward.
“Lord, you don’t care about this lowly one’s past. The person beside Xie Pushe has a token, so this lowly one doesn’t dare to disobey.”
“Token? What license?”
“A wooden token with the words ‘General Wei’s token.”someone replied.
Yang Fengming was stunned. Where did this General Wei come from? He had been replaced decades ago, so why did he bring up the General of Guards?
Since he could not get anything out of him, Yang Fengming changed into his official robes and rushed to the Central Army Office.
That’s right, she even took over his government office.
Yang Fengming’s anger had already reached the top of his head, but it was not visible on his face. His face was only a little longer than usual.
The Central Army’s government office was brightly lit. The people coming in and out stunned Yang Fengming.
Only when he saw his trusted subordinate ask did he know that not long after Yang Fengming left the banquet in advance, Emperor Yong Ping had given Xie Xian another promotion while he was slightly drunk. He was promoted to General Wei and was in charge of the capital’s northern and southern armies. He was a second-grade official and could even set up an official residence!
In the past, although Shangshu Pushe was the actual prime minister and was put in an important position by the emperor, his official position was only the third rank.
Now, with just a few cups of wine, he had drunk the emperor into a daze and promoted him to a higher position. Now, he was riding on his head!
It was as if he had eaten a live fly. Disgusting.
“He hasn’t even issued an imperial edict and he’s already giving orders here.”The subordinate could not help but shake his head. Even the token was written with his own hands. He was really in a hurry.
“Currently, three assassins have been captured. One is dead, and it is said that the other person is missing. Our General Wei has ordered a strict house-to-house search. Anyone who harbors or resists the law will be punished with the same crime.”
“How impressive!” Yang Fengming said coldly.
“What are you doing?”
“They’ve already called my house. I’m here to ask what’s going on.”Yang Fengming said as he walked in,” The Xie Manor is surrounded by our guards. That assassin ran into my manor…”
“You’re not injured, are you?””
“I’m lucky.”
Yang Fengming was obviously unhappy. He was stopped by someone if he continued to walk in. When he looked again, he still recognized him. It was the city gate captain Cai Guang, his subordinate.
“Are you stopping me?” Yang Fengming’s heart turned cold.
Cai Guang was twenty-three or twenty-four years old. He had a straight nose and a wide mouth. He was the most loyal. “General Wei has ordered that no one is allowed to enter. General Wei is currently investigating a case.”
Yang Fengming now knew who his superior was and who he was loyal to.
“Then go and report it to me.” General Yang Fengming requests an audience!”
Cai Guang hesitated for a moment before he finally relaxed.”General Wei has ordered, but…I’ll report it now…”
Yang Fengming’s face was dark, and he could no longer maintain his composure.
The courtyard was filled with people coming and going, and no one was stopping them. Was he the one who was trying to stop them?
Cai Guang’s words were passed on, and after waiting for a full hour, Yang Fengming was invited to the west hall to drink an entire pot of tea before he finally saw Xie Xian.
He was still a gentleman, but no matter how Yang Fengming looked at him, he felt disgusted. His life was too big. So many people wanted him dead, but why couldn’t this person die?
“Due to the urgency of the matter just now, I didn’t have the time to see you in time. I hope you won’t take offense.”
