Chapter 55: Confusion.

"Literally. Xia Feng sneered lightly, and looked up at the Wei family's lofty doorframe: "My mother went early, and she didn't even have time to come home to see me. Since I was a child, I have thought that when I grow up, I must kill all the foreign enemies in the distant city. The officers and men of the Northwest Army must not die under the swords of their own people. "

My poor daughter," Old Lady Wei remembered something, and suddenly she was full of grief, "Daughter, I sent a white-haired person to a black-haired person, an old bone that has survived for so many years, just waiting for the day to go down to see her."

This is the main gate of the Wei Mansion, and the Xia family army suddenly sent heavy troops to besiege it, which has already caused a lot of discussion among the surrounding people. Now the old lady is crying in front of the door to make those who hear it sad, and those who see it cry. In the eyes of those who don't know the truth, it seems that Xia Feng is bullying the weak.

Xia Feng was familiar with all the strange eyes around her, only looked at her coldly and cried, as if smiling: "It's all in front of the door, and my grandmother won't invite me in and sit?" "

Come in, please come in. Old Lady Wei stumbled, was supported by the grandmother behind her, and led Xia Feng into the main hall of Wei Mansion.

Xia Feng walked into the main hall, neither sitting nor paying attention to anyone, and watched coldly as the old lady beckoned the lady and lady in the mansion to come in as a companion.

She bowed slightly to the guards, signaled to surround the hall, slowly rubbed her sword with her fingers, and stood under the hall like a ruthless statue.

"Girl, so decent, why did you suddenly think of your mother? The old lady wiped away her tears of sorrow and spoke, as if afraid of her.

After waiting for a long time, seeing that Xia Feng didn't mean to speak, she pushed away the grandma beside her and slowly stepped forward, taking care of herself: "She left early, don't you have much impression of her?" Like you, your mother didn't like girls' pollen rouge, and she longed to go out and do big things like men.

Xia Feng did not answer this warm and affectionate words, but instead asked an unexpected question: "When my mother married my father, the phoenix crown was also purchased by you, right?"

"Yes, it is the most appropriate dowry that every mother prepares for her daughter." Old Mrs. Wei's sagging eye bags pulled out a little upward trend, and she stretched out her brown hand to grab Xia Feng, but stopped three inches away from her cold iron armor.

"Dowry? Xia Feng chewed these two words carefully, glancing coldly at everyone in the hall, and the ladies and ladies who were usually pampered were scared like quails. They had never seen this battle, and they came not so much to accompany them as to tremble.

Xia Feng did not have the habit of embarrassing women and children, and waved his hand: "You are in the inner mansion, I don't know what is happening outside, I don't want to embarrass you." Let's go out if you have nothing to do, I'm not here as a guest, I don't need to be accompanied. When

Old Mrs. Wei heard this, her cloudy eyes narrowed slightly, and seeing that no one dared to get up and leave, she said with a smile: "Let's all go out." I thought that you hadn't seen Feng'er girl, so you could talk more, but it was impossible to talk like this.

Xia Feng watched her guide and act coldly, until the people were gone, and suddenly she pulled out her sword and stabbed at Old Lady Wei's neck.

With a "sonorous" sound, metal sharp weapons collided, and several black-clothed people were like ghosts, and they rushed straight down from the beam.

Old Mrs. Wei dodged in horror and fell to the ground. Didn't get up for half a day. She looked at the man in black who was entangled with Xia Feng, and she was puzzled, so frightened that she couldn't say anything.

After struggling for a long time, her hoarse and slurred voice finally broke through her throat: "Come on, catch assassins, there are assassins!" However

, there were Xia family's soldiers guarding outside the hall, and the Wei Mansion servants couldn't approach the main hall for half a step. And Xia Jiajun has no boss to summon, and will never move easily. Old Mrs. Ren Wei shouted hoarsely for a long time, and no one called in.

The four men in black cooperated tacitly, but they were still not Xia Feng's opponents, the lineup was repeatedly broken and interrupted, and blood splattered everywhere.

Old Mrs. Wei trembled with fright, and a mouthful of phlegm choked into the lung tube, and she coughed in the dark.

Xia Feng dealt with the four assassins while paying attention to the old lady's condition.

The Wei family's back was confused, and it was difficult for her to determine who was the final hand. Since the Wei family is a big family, it is impossible for the noble style to be passed down in the slightest. However, everyone has suspicions, and everyone has their own calculations.

She does not care about that little bit of blood affection, no matter who the collaborator is, she will not show mercy to her subordinates. But the problem was that Xia Feng suspected everyone, but he couldn't catch anyone's evidence.

Just like the old lady Wei in front of her, the purpose of the man in black guarding the hall is clearly to protect her, but she looks like she doesn't know anything, and Xia Feng can't tell whether she is superb in acting or really ignorant.

All four men in black were killed, and Xia Feng turned to look at Old Lady Wei, who was shrinking. She stood against the light, her face unreal, and blood was still dripping from her blade.

After a long silence, Xia Feng threw away his sword, stepped forward to help Old Lady Wei, and asked, "Grandmother, who are these people?"

"I don't know, I don't know... I don't know. Old Lady Wei muttered, shaking her head constantly.

After a moment of intense panic, she stretched out her hand to hold Xia Feng's cold iron bracer and looked up and down with concern: "They... Are they all dead? Girl, how are you, is there anything wrong? Did they hurt you?

"I'm fine. Xia Feng helped the old lady to sit down and poured her a cup of hot tea: "I noticed these people last time I came to Wei Mansion, and they have always been by your side." Do you really, don't know anything? "

I, I..." Old Lady Wei sat restlessly, fighting diligently and without any demeanor. She seemed to have encountered great fear, and wanted to say something, but she did not dare to say a word.

Xia Feng sighed: "If you don't want to say it, forget it." I heard that my mother's boudoir before marriage is still there, can you show me around?

"You, your mother's... Good, good. Old Mrs. Wei was stunned for a moment, and then held Xia Feng's arm, stood up with difficulty, and walked out of the main hall step by step.

Wei Yu, who was outside to win people's hearts and was very busy, heard that Fuzhong was besieged by Xia Feng's troops, hurried back, and was immediately escorted by his own soldiers to wait under the corridor.

He was waiting outside, and he suddenly heard the old lady's harsh exclamation, so anxious that he wanted to break in regardless of the Xia family guards around him, but he was restrained by someone and could only wait.

The surrounding guards seemed to have practiced closed-mouth meditation, unable to say a word, and Wei Yu heard that there was suddenly no movement in the hall, and he was sweating profusely. Until he saw the carved wooden door open, Xia Feng helped the stumbling old lady out slowly.

He hurriedly rushed forward, but was instantly caught by the guards, and had to shout: "Shuai, mother, she is old and does not know anything." If you need anything, your subordinates are willing to do the work of dogs and horses.

Xia Feng ignored him and only concentrated on helping the old lady down the steps.

In front of the courtyard before Xia Feng's mother came out of the pavilion was a pond, with dead lotus leaves, lonely and quiet, connected to the outside world by the nine-curved corridor bridge. The northwest is short of water all year round, but there is such a scenery in the south of the river in the Wei Mansion, which must have been smashed out of real money.

The small yard is very exquisite, and autumn chrysanthemums bloom under the Taihu stone rockery. Life everywhere. The Duchess of Guo was married more than twenty years ago and died more than ten years ago, but the courtyard was as clean as if it had always been inhabited.

Ignoring Old Lady Wei's concealed hesitation, Xia Feng directly brought his own soldiers into his deceased mother's former residence and sent people to guard on all sides.

Fortunately, she saw the face of her mother, and still left two points of respect for this yard, and did not directly let people enter and search.

She had rarely put on such a big posture when she went out before, and today she was unusual, not only because the Wei Mansion was unfathomable, but more importantly, the phoenix crown that made people do tricks and feet at the time of the wedding had a great impact on her heart.

Xia Feng couldn't be sure how that thing worked and how long it would affect him.

the source of the strange song has not been searched so far, Xu Shi rummaged through Huaiyuan City in one day, but did not find any suspicious Qiang instruments. Only the Wei family, the courtyard where the Duchess of the Kingdom lived in front of her, no one dared to enter and search it.

"Has there always been people living here? Xia Feng asked.

"No one lives, only the next person will come to clean from time to time. When Mrs. Wei came to her daughter's former residence, she felt and was very reluctant. As if she hadn't come out of Fang Cai's shock, her pupils suddenly contracted violently, and she shivered unconsciously: "I... I rarely come over, afraid to see things and think about people.

"The deceased is gone, and my mother must wish you well-being." Xia Feng comforted her casually and helped her towards the main room.

The closer she got to the room, the stiffer Old Lady Wei became, as if she couldn't take a step, and was half-supported and half-forced by Xia Feng to the door.

There is nothing special in the room, the pear blossom wood furniture has become darker and deeper over the years, the colorful weaving has faded, and the drapery has been washed white.

Old Mrs. Wei stopped outside and refused to enter again, so Xia Feng placed her aside and sat down, and walked into the inner room by herself.

The spacious interior is separated by a splendid screen, which is both ordinary and eerie. Xia Feng did not have the slightest intention of mourning his mother, and used the scabbard to open the bedding wardrobe dresser and searched it carefully.

There was no trace of anyone living in the room, but it always made people instinctively feel that something was wrong, and Xia Feng himself couldn't tell where it was.

She opened the bottom drawer of the wardrobe, and inside was a Qiang pipa. Four phases and thirteen products, four silk strings, is Haobis.

The matter of Feng Guan was still palpitating, and she did not rush to touch this pipa, but used the end of the scabbard to lift it out. The heavy lute was flipped over onto the thick pole, making a muffled sound.

The fragile Zhang silk string slammed to the edge of the wardrobe, and the "zheng" broke with a sound.

The old lady waiting outside hurried into the inner room and saw the broken lute incredulously. She seemed to shrink a little in grief, standing by the screen and not daring to step forward: "Feng'er girl, this... This is the lute left by your mother.

"What? Xia Feng looked at the broken pipa on the ground, and all kinds of tastes surged in his heart, and he was stunned for a long time.

For a long time, she found her voice: "This is not something from the Central Plains, I have never heard of my mother's musical instrument, why should she keep a lute here?"

"Come out, girl, you come out first, don't touch it." Old Mrs. Wei seemed to be unsteady on her feet, holding the screen and beckoning to her: "Don't be inside, come out... Come out and I'll tell you. "
