Xiao Dingfei.

The Xiao family is definitely not the son of the world.

What an honorable name?

Bearing it, all the members of the Tianjiao respected him, and it will have indescribable magical effects in the future.

Unfortunately, some people hate it.

I would rather give up this old name and surname and return to the white body, and suffer from all kinds of difficulties and dangers than any glory and wealth.

Compared with Xie Wei, Xiao Dingfei has always been the kind of person who is completely opposite to him.

But it is undeniable that he has been favored by this person.

Therefore, when facing Xie Wei, he never dared to be too presumptuous, and he never dared to be as perverse and unscrupulous as other people facing Tianjiao—even if the leader did a clean job, those people who knew the truth back then Died one after another in "accidents".

Xie Wei was noncommittal to his sarcasm, but said: "I once sent someone to Zui Le Fang to look for you, and the girl in Zui Le Fang said that you went to brew for ten years to buy wine, and when you find the recipe for ten years of brewing I know you didn't go at all."

Xiao Dingfei leaned on the pillow: "Isn't this a panic?"

Xie Wei stared at him.

He smiled wildly: "I heard that Mr. Gongyi disappeared, but I was terrified."

Xie Weibo calmly said: "Mr. Gongyi has been with the head teacher for a long time, and I couldn't stop him when he arrived in Beijing, and I don't know what he did, but unexpectedly died in the court's arrows during the siege of Shuntian Mansion. Now, I was shocked when I heard it all of a sudden. It’s just that the incident happened urgently, and the imperial court had plans, and even Mr. Gongyi’s body was never seen. I’m afraid that the head teacher should be sad when the news spreads back to Jinling.”

More than sad?

I'm afraid I will be furious again.

Gongyicheng has always been advising and counseling for him, and he is the real right-hand man. After going to the capital, he disappeared for no apparent reason. Who would believe it?

Xiao Dingfei stretched out his hand to Jianshu: "Tea."

Jian Shu gave him a blank look, but still poured him tea.

When the tea was handed to him, he said what Xuxu said to Jianshu, "You are so kind", then turned around and muttered: "The capital is your territory, so naturally you can do whatever you say, and I dare not doubt it." You killed Gongyi Cheng."

Xie Wei smiled: "I didn't know when you also grew a brain."

Xiao Dingfei took a sip of tea, and was rarely proud: "It's a pity that he didn't escape, but anyway, he won't suffer if he tries. What if it succeeds?"

Xie Wei said: "But it didn't work."

Xiao Dingfei smiled shyly: "Then what, Mister, you can't be so ruthless, after all, I have made a contribution this time!"

Xie Wei raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

Xiao Dingfei was pretending to be drinking tea, but in fact he was quietly sizing up Xie Wei's expression, without any fear on his face, but he was beating drums in his heart.

All the events of the past few days came to mind.

He also thought of the Tianjiao believers he had known acquainted with in the valley during the day when he was shot to death in the valley, and racked his brains to figure out how to win a chance for himself in this seemingly calm but hidden crisis situation .

He said: "I exposed Zhang Zhe's identity!"

Xie Wei said: "Really?"

Xiao Dingfei said: "Really, and it's not too early or too late, it's today. Who am I and how obedient I am, don't you know, sir? It's been so many years, and it can't be wrong to keep it. From the very beginning they said to go Jie Tian Prison, I felt that this was not quite right. When I saw the man surnamed Zhang brought a girl to the temple and said, "Mountain people live in the mountains", this dog official must be talking nonsense. But at that time When I saw Xiaobao there again, I kept quiet, thinking that you had some secret plan. Until this morning, I saw Xiaobao took the second girl Jiang away, and saw the secret letter you wrote to Feng Mingyu and Wu Feng's two grandsons here , I exposed the one surnamed Zhang."

As for the journey from the capital to Tongzhou this time, the journey is steep and intricate, who can see it most clearly, I'm afraid it must be Xiao Dingfei.

Who let him know both sides?

Some people are both soldiers and thieves, and they also like to play a good show of fighting each other. The soldiers catch the thieves, and the thieves trap the soldiers, making both sides think that the other side is against them, but they don't know that there is another pusher in the middle.

The death of Gongyi Cheng was the beginning of everything.

Regardless of whether he killed this person out of impulse or not, Xie Wei's follow-up plan was meticulous enough.

But it was the first accident that Gu Chunfang recommended Zhang Zhe to step in.

Xie Weiruo sternly refused, which inevitably aroused people's suspicion, so he simply used his plan, the plan was inconvenient, he only put Zhang Zhe into the chess game, and ordered Xiaobao to watch secretly.

I don't want to add Jiang Xuening soon, this is the second accident.

The situation became complicated. If Zhang Zhe was exposed rashly, Jiang Xuening who was with him would be implicated, and I'm afraid it would not end well.

So he invited people to encircle and suppress Tianjiao.

At this time, the third accident occurred. After the fall of the Marquis of Yongyi, the Xiao family tried to obtain the military power of the Fengtai and Tongzhou camps, and was eager to make contributions in front of the emperor. Suppress rebellion.

Three accidents, one overlapping and one heavy.

Xie Wei first wanted to protect Jiang Xuening, second he wanted to get rid of Zhang Zhe, third he wanted to deal with the Xiao family, and fourth he wanted to use the imperial court to weaken the power of Tianjiao. Facing such a complicated situation, after several times of planning, Xie Wei came up with a ruthless plan and a dangerous move.

He deliberately lagged behind Xiao Yuan first, and let him go forward.

Secretly arranged two people, pretending to be a traitor on the side of Tianjiao, and providing Xiao Yuan with top-secret news that Tianjiao settled in Shangqingguan; Those who came back from the capital had the imperial court's eyeliner, and then informed them of the Xiao family's attack, so that they could prepare early and lay ambushes with explosives to lure the enemy deep.

The reason why they didn't directly state that the court's eyeliner was Zhang Zhe was because Jiang Xuening was still there.

Zhang Zhe went deep into the Tianjiao, how could he know how much he would know?

If someone accidentally peeks out the secret for him, I'm afraid he is the one who will die without a place to bury him.

Therefore, Zhang Zhe must be removed.

The fact that someone from the Yongding Pharmacy was responding was originally a lie, it was a deliberate scheming; the intentional mention of the eyeliner in the secret letter was to make Tianjiao suspicious of Zhang Zhe and control his whereabouts, but not to directly attack him, and even implicate him. Jiang Xuening was with her.

When Xiaobao takes Jiang Xuening away, Zhang Zhe can kill him.

At this time, if his identity is exposed again, the Tianjiao will inevitably rise up and take his life. Even if the court pursues it in the future, it will not have much to do with Xie Wei. What's more, it wasn't him who forced Zhang Zhe to go, on the contrary, it was Gu Chunfang, the new minister of the Ministry of Punishments who recommended him, and he couldn't be held accountable if he was to be held accountable.

Therefore, if the plan goes well, Zhang Zhe will die, the Xiao family will fall, and the remnants of the rebellious party of the Tianjiao will be wiped out by him who will come later.

At that time, if Xiao Yuan is not dead, he will suffer a big loss because of his greed for meritorious deeds.

And he who arrived later was the fisherman hiding behind the snipe and the clam, and the oriole hiding above the praying mantis and cicada, and he would be the only beneficiary, the big winner.

A full-scale plan, using strength to eradicate dissidents, can be called seamless!

Who would have thought...

There is Jiang Xuening!

Xie Wei sat by the stove, the bright red charcoal reflected a bit of twilight-like light, falling into his eyes, flickering unsteadily, and said flatly: "So, instead of punishing you, I will reward you? "

Xiao Dingfei shivered, and shook his head: "Don't dare!"

This salivating face with soft bones, without any trace of arrogance, just like a **** rolling in the quagmire of the market, makes people feel disgusted when they see it.

It's just that this appearance happens to be what he likes to see.

Xie Wei frowned lightly, then slowly let go, and said: "You will keep it, you will have a good life in the capital. If you dare to run next time, I will ask someone to break your legs. After all, you will have a good life." This face is enough!"

The coldness hidden in these words is not a lie.

Xiao Dingfei couldn't hold back the sneer on Xiao Dingfei's face when he heard it.

After Xie Wei finished talking to him, he got up and walked outside regardless of his reaction. Jianshu and Daoqin hurriedly held up an umbrella and the other a lantern, and went out with Xie Wei.

There is still some light snow at night, but it is much smaller than at dusk.

The lantern is not really bright, it only illuminates the nearby three or four feet of ground, but there is not much reflected snow light.

Daoqin lowered the umbrella very low.

When the three masters and servants went out from the round door, they saw a somewhat tall and strong figure hovering on the porch outside the door, wearing a satin and brocade robe, his figure was slightly fatter in his old age, his temples were gray, and he was still showing off his might during the day At this moment, his face seemed to be covered with a little restlessness and hesitation, sometimes it was cloudy and sometimes it was sunny, showing a bit of horror.

It is Dingguo Gong Xiao Yuan.

Jian Shu looked back and said something in a low voice, Xie Wei then looked in that direction, then laughed and said, "Why is Gongye here in the middle of the night?"

Xiao Yuan didn't expect Xie Wei to come out from inside, he was taken aback for a moment, quickly put away the expression on his face, looked at the courtyard behind him, and hurriedly said: "Oh, it's nothing, it's just that the gang of rebels from the Heavenly Sect are all dead. , It's a pity that I couldn't get anything out of their mouths. But I heard that Master Xie has arrested a most important person in the Tianjiao, and I'm a little curious."

God knows how Xiao Yuan felt when he heard the news!

He was asking the doctor if Xiao Ye's leg was still recovering. As a result, the soldiers hurried in and reported to him that Mr. Xie had captured a rebel from the Heavenly Sect, named "Xiao Dingfei"!

It's really a thunderbolt!

He caught the soldier and asked him three times before he could believe that he had heard correctly.

Then the eyelids twitched wildly, and all kinds of fear surged in my heart: How could it be, it must be a coincidence, right? How could the child be alive? All three hundred righteous children were buried under the snow!

Such a small child, such a small child...

Xiao Yuan has always known that Xie Ju'an is the best at observing words and demeanor, he was afraid that he would see some flaws, and said again: "I heard that this person seems to be called 'Dingfei'?"

When he said these two words, the back of his head felt cold.

In the deep winter, the snow is cold and the wind is stern.

This Shangqing Temple is built on the mountain, with shadows of trees. When the cold wind blows, the snow falls from the branches. In the silence, it seems that there are ghosts walking quietly in the snow, which makes people tremble.

The corner of Xie Weixue's white robe was blown up by the wind.

The lantern that Jianshu was carrying was shining brightly.

On this snowy night, he stared at the elder of the Xiao family in front of him, and smiled lightly, but it was too good-looking, he didn't know if he was more like a **** in the sky, or a ghost wandering in the dark, he said: "Yes. Everyone called him 'Master Dingfei', but it reminded Xie of the case of Hou Yi's Mansion a while ago. The secret letter between Yan Mu and Tianjiao mentioned the traces of your son, and he seemed to be still alive in the world. "

In the extremely cold weather, sweat broke out on Xiao Yuan's forehead.

His Adam's apple rolled, and he laughed, but he was very reluctant, and he didn't even notice Xie Wei's staring gaze under his confusion, he stumbled and said: "There are so many people with the same name and surname in the world, maybe it's a coincidence."

Xie Wei said: "I just went to take a look. Although this 'Mr. Dingfei' has an ineffective posture, you can see his facial features, but they are three or four points similar to your facial features."

Xiao Yuan turned pale with shock: "What?!"

Xie Wei raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he was a little confused: "Isn't this good news?"

Only then did Xiao Yuan realize that he had lost his composure, and quickly tried to cover it up, but when he wanted to curl his lips to smile, he felt that the muscles on his face were twisted, so how could he smile?

Not only did he not smile, but he looked a bit sinister.

He was flustered and confused, and said perfunctorily: "I just don't dare to believe it..."

Swords, books, knives and zithers were all behind Xie Wei, watching Xiao Yuan's performance full of flaws with cold eyes.

Xie Wei just thought it was ridiculous.

He also really laughed out, clearly seeing fear, fear, murderous intent, guilty conscience and other emotions flashing across Xiao Yuan's face, but Wen Wenran said viciously: "If this is true, it must be true." Congratulations to Grandpa, congratulations to Grandpa. Surely the eldest son survived the catastrophe, Grandpa will have successors, the Xiao family will be blessed at that time!"

Xiao Yuan was very gloomy and irritable in his heart, but under his guilty conscience he didn't dare to show it, laughing was uglier than crying, he just said: "I hope so."

Xie Wei knowingly asked: "Master Dingfei hasn't rested yet, why don't you go in and have a look?"

Before Xiao Yuan could answer, he suddenly smiled and said: "Forget it, even if we haven't seen each other for twenty years, you may be too timid to be close to home. Besides, this person may not be real, it's normal for you to hesitate."

Xiao Yuan could only say: "Yes, yes."

Another gust of wind blew, Xie Wei felt cold and coughed, he raised his eyes to see that the surrounding snowy night was faintly shining light, then closed his eyes again and said, "It's cold and dark at night, my lord, please forgive me. Xie has been suffering from the wind and cold recently, so he dared not stay long, so he left first."

Xiao Yuan said quickly, "Master Xie, go slowly."

Xie Wei didn't ask how long Xiao Yuan was going to stand here, covered his lips and coughed twice, then went down the steps with Daoqin under the umbrella, and walked to his room.

The house is brightly lit, with candlelight shining through the holes.

Xie Wei sat cross-legged on the side of the Arhat bed by the window, a sneer appeared on his lips, and finally turned into a cold expressionless face.

He raised his hand and rolled his eyes.

Jianshu took out a jade bottle from the box he brought with him, poured a pill, brought a cup of warm water, handed it over, and served him and the water to take the pill.

Xie Wei's pale face did not improve.

A volume of Daoist scriptures was casually turned over on the four corners of the kang table, and there were dense vertical rows of typefaces on it. His eyes fell on it, and what he caught a glimpse of was the sentence "Shun is mortal, rebellious is immortal, only upside down in the middle".

Tao pure heart, Buddha few desires.

He is a Buddhist as well as a Taoist, seeing this incomprehensible obscenity, he was disturbed for a while, and he threw his hand into the corner of the wall, making a loud "crash".

Jianshu Daoqin was startled.

Xie Wei rested his elbows on the corner of the desk, and lightly tapped his tense temples with his long fingers, and asked, "Where's Ning Er?"

The sword book said: "After reading it, the doctor said that he fell asleep with a relaxed mind. Half an hour ago, Xiaobao came to report that Fang woke up and ate something. He planned to go and see Mr. Zhang."

Xie Wei's eyelids were closed, and a shadow of prey flashed across the bottom of his eyes.

Can't sleep tonight.

Since he couldn't live in peace, then no one should think about making peace in life, so he said coldly: "Tell her to come and learn the piano!"

When Jiang Xuening heard this, she almost jumped out of bed in anger, she was extremely angry: "What kind of ghost piano are you learning in the snow at night?!"
