Gui Gongzi [Green Snake]

Enduring all the way, being frightened and not talking, and being looked at by others, using it as a shield to be related to relatives, the scholar felt aggrieved when he thought about it, and his evaluation of Xie Xin became harsh.

However, just as he was about to get rid of the relationship, suddenly, he felt two sharp knives swishing at his back.

At first glance, Ah Si, who was driving the car, was staring at him. In the end, he ground his teeth and showed his sharp canine teeth. In an instant, his cute and cute face turned into a fox-like animal face, so scary!

The scholar swallowed the words again, and after a while, nodded very spinelessly, then stopped talking again.

Huluo Pingyang was bullied by dogs, not to mention that he was just a scholar with no money and no power, and he was still sitting in someone else's car... Let's skip a few words.

Princess Xihe is a reliable guide.

First, they led Xie Xin and his party through the purple bamboo forest of Lianhua Mountain. There was a small tea house in the land of green bamboo and green grass. Everyone drank green tea and had refreshments. After a short rest, they continued their journey in the afternoon and walked up to Qiyun Mountain.

"Qiyun Mountain has a beautiful scenery. The king once built a hunting ground here, but after a long time, he felt that it was a spiritual place, and it was inappropriate to hurt the creatures here, so he withdrew the hunting ground and built several palaces for the royal family. I live here when I play and rest with my cronies." The princess knows the customs and landforms of this place very well, and arranged the work and rest time properly.

Xie Xin sat on the carriage, looked around, and said: "The mountains and rivers control people's fortune, Qiyun Mountain surrounds the imperial capital, and naturally shares the land with it. If the vegetation on the Lianhua Mountain is lush and watery, the imperial capital will prosper and the people will be healthy, my lord." I know Feng Shui fortune very well, and I have bothered to govern the country."

"Haha, although your majesty is swift and resolute, he is meticulous in this respect. Sometimes I wonder that such a mysterious thing is really so magical that it can affect a person's fortune?" Xi He shook his head, with a pair of beautiful eyes. Faint disapproval, "I only know that people should be upright and work hard. If you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about crooked things. You can fight openly and beat him without leaving a piece of armor! Let's see who dares to touch my country!"

"His Royal Highness was born as a general, while Xi He is a wonderful woman with both civil and military skills. The tiger father has no dogs. Xie really admires him." Xie Xin looked at Xi He's heroic figure, and his eyes, which had always been indifferent, had a different expression .

That sound of Xi He moved the Princess' heart.

Ah, the face seems to be a little hot...

Immediately shaking his head, the princess said: "In this way, my father is also resting in this mountain, why don't we stay at the place where he lives tonight, the servants' belongings are all ready-made, and there is no need to prepare them again!"

"All under the arrangement of the princess."

So, a group of people went to Linchuan Xiaozhu and decided to get there before sunset.

Nie Fanchen was holding a teacup when suddenly the door was pushed open.

He shook his hand, spilled a little tea, looked up again, and found that it was an acquaintance.

"My lord, I failed to stop him..." The servant rushed over from the outside tremblingly, seeing the panting appearance, it was true that he didn't stop him.

Nie Fanchen waved his hand to tell people to close the door, put down his teacup, and said to the visitor, "What are you in a hurry for?"

"He Rushi is dead." That's what Huangfu Jixun said.

Nie Fanchen frowned, and said, "He's about the same age."

"Just last night, in Dingguo Temple, the skull was torn off, and the brains disappeared." Huangfu Jixun said, looking around nervously, "If someone kills, who will take the brains?"

"...Nonsense!" Nie Fanchen scolded lightly, "It's been so many years, and you're still as cowardly as a soldier!"

"You still don't believe it! He's back!" Seeing the other party's undeniable attitude, Huangfu Jixun's nervousness and panic were fully exposed. His eyes were bloodshot. It seemed that he hadn't slept soundly all night. "These years I've always thought that those surnamed Xie's crimes are still unfinished, and sure enough, they came back just after the 30th anniversary of their death!"

The more flustered Huangfu Jixun was, the calmer Nie Fanchen became.

He has always been like this. In the past, they fought together in the killing field and were besieged by the enemy in Daocheng.

Huangfu Jixun was the first to panic, and even wanted to open the city gate at one point, leading the cavalry to fight out of the encirclement and flee, but this bastard just didn't think about it, once the city gate opened, despite his superhuman powers, before taking a step, the enemy The army will come in first.

At this moment, he had to keep calm, so that he could take Huangfu's share into consideration.

"If people kill people, it's okay to pretend to be a ghost. Have you ever seen any ghost that can kill people in a Buddhist place?" Nie Fanchen said coldly, looking at Huangfu Jixun as if looking at a fool.

Forget it, Huangfu Jixun was indeed brave and unparalleled on the battlefield, but his brain was not enough. Once he was at a disadvantage, he would always take the lead in panic, fearing that he would not be able to hold a knife steadily.

It's no wonder Boss Xie asked him to march with Huangfu Jixun at the beginning, he had seen through Huangfu's recklessness, he was full of strange strength!

"You mean..." Huangfu was startled, he had never seen the murder scene with his own eyes, and when he learned of He Ru's tragic death, his first reaction was that there were ghosts behind him, but after hearing Nie Fanchen's words, it seemed that this was not the case.

"Everything is linked to monsters, and it always seems difficult to control. I'm afraid the murderer just wants to take advantage of this to make us confused first." Nie Fanchen's old eyes flashed a hale and shrewd light.

Huangfu Jixun's restless heart also gradually returned to calm. He walked back and forth a few times with his hands behind his back, and said to Nie Fanchen, "If it's artificial, who could it be?"

Nie Fanchen couldn't figure it out either.

The 26 members of the Xie family, including their servants, were all slaughtered. Their heads were cut off and hung on an old tree in the garden. Then they were set on fire, and nothing was left.

Only, Xie Yu's two children were detained by Nie Ganhai, but they both died 30 years ago, and he even saw You'an's body...

"When Xie Yu traveled the world when he was young, he would definitely make friends with some chivalrous people. If the other party accidentally learned of the cause of Xie Yu's death, it would be understandable for them to come to revenge and complain. They usually carry guards with them, so be careful," Nie Fanchen said. Looking at the hulking Huangfu Jixun again, he sneered and said, "Besides, with your body, who can get close to you? Live in peace."

What did Huangfu Jixun want to say, at this time, the servants outside the door reported: "My lord, the princess is back!"

Hearing that Xi He had returned, Nie Fanchen had no desire to continue chatting with him, so he put down his teacup and straightened his clothes.

"Don't disturb your father and daughter's reunion, I'm leaving!" Huangfu Jixun didn't want to pester, he waved his hand and walked to the back hall, thinking that he wouldn't go through the main entrance, and he wouldn't have to take a photo with Xihe.

Huangfu Jixun also lived in Linchuan Xiaozhu, and he knew the way when he came and went. Nie Fanchen went out through the front door, and he went through the inner hall to go to the back door.

The inner hall is now converted into a small study by Nie Fanchen. Several rows of sandalwood shelves are placed there, and there are rare antiques and classic books. On the central table, there are ink, paper and pens, and some books.

On a whim, Huangfu Jixun stepped forward, picked up the few post books, and glanced through them.

Seeing this, he was instantly furious.

"The garden flowers have thanked the old people, and Xiao Xiao Dongfeng hates to part. The lonely sycamore is locked in the courtyard, how can the country return?" Holding the book, Huangfu Jixun's face was ferocious, and his eyes were full of violence and fright. "Xie family boy You still regard the sentence as a treasure, and you copied it and recited it? Bah! What a piece of shit, I think you are that traitorous bastard!"

Nie Fanchen had already left the house to pick up his daughter, who knew what Huangfu Jixun was thinking in the house.

The old man rolled up the post, hid it in his sleeve, strode away from Xiaozhu, and drove back to the imperial capital on a fast horse.

"Daddy, I'm back!" As soon as Nie Fanchen walked to the courtyard, Xi He, who rushed in from outside the door, jumped into his arms.

Xihe hooked Nie Fanchen's neck. At this moment, she was not a princess, but a little girl who was acting like a baby with her father: "Does Daddy want Xihe?"

"Silly girl, you ran all over the mountains and fields, and didn't know to tell daddy, which made daddy worry!" Nie Fanchen scolded, but still hugged her daughter tightly with both hands, fearing that she would fall.

"Dad, don't worry, I'm taking Shang Yun and Shang Bai with me, they will protect me."

Behind Xi He, two silent guards stood with their swords in their hands. They were both the same age as Xi He. Nie Fanchen saw them pick them up and grew up with Xi He. They were all instilled with the idea of ​​"protecting the lord". Their thoughts have only one criterion, to protect Xihe, even if they are doomed.

Looking at his daughter's carefree and lovely face, Nie Fanchen was neither relieved nor worried. At this moment, he noticed that there were outsiders here.

"Who are these?" Nie Fanchen looked behind Xi He, his eyes fixed on one of them.

"This is a friend I met on the way. We had a great conversation! They are going to the imperial capital, and I thought it would be inconvenient to travel at night, so I invited them to stay at Chuan Xiaozhu for one night and continue on the road tomorrow." Xi He said without intuition Fan Chen jumped off, pointed at them and said, "This is Xie Xin! This is his younger brother, and the one holding the luggage next to him is their servant Si!"

After finishing speaking, Xihe turned his head, only to find that Nie Fanchen didn't answer him, his gaze was still on Xie Xin, his face was cloudy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Daddy?" Xi He asked strangely. In his impression, her father was very kind, and he was calm and generous when dealing with things. This was the first time he saw such a absent-minded appearance.

Hearing his daughter's call, Nie Fanchen blinked, not realizing that his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

He straightened his back, pretending to be calm and said: "It turns out that they are Xi He's guests, Ade, lead them to the guest room, and let the kitchen cook a few more good dishes tonight."

"Father, let me take them for a stroll here~" Xi He responded, and walked towards Xie Xin again.

Seeing this, Nie Fanchen subconsciously grabbed his daughter.

"En?" Xi He looked at Nie Fanchen's hand holding his arm, and at his father's familiar face, a little puzzled as to what he was going to do.

"This... Mr. Xie? Have we met somewhere?" Nie Fanchen stared at Xie Xin, looking for some clues from the young man's indifferent face.

However, the young man is still safe: "I have never met the prince."

"Oh...that's it." Nie Fanchen let go of his hand dejectedly, and said in a low voice, "Xi He, don't play too late, come back for dinner in time." To Shang Yun, Shang Bai said, "You follow and protect Miss well."

The guards took orders, and Xihe smiled sweetly and said, "Don't worry about Daddy, Xihe won't go far away, and will be back in a while."

"Yeah." Nie Fanchen waved his hand and walked into the room again.

Xi He looked at his father's back, feeling a little confused.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but the tall and resolute seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, as if he was carrying some heavy weight and was slumped.
