Chapter 400 Interrogation
The sword light came again behind him, this time, he couldn't dodge it, he suffered the sword, and then, he had already lightly stepped on the flower branch under the window, and landed safely, covering the wound on his arm with one hand, he raised his head to go When he looked up, he happened to meet the eyes of Ye Xinyi who was looking down from the window.

However, when their eyes met, he lowered his eyes and ran into the dark night without stopping.

At this time, the entire Wanlv Pavilion was alarmed, someone shouted that there was an assassin, and further away, the noise of people was so loud that the guards could already be heard coming.

Ye Xinyi stood by the window, squinting at the direction in which the man in black fled, with a cloud of suspicion on his face.

An Xiang also moved closer to her, and looked in the direction where her gaze fell, but saw nothing.

The din outside the house is gradually approaching, and tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

Because of one assassin, the entire Xia Mansion was alarmed.

By the time Anyang and Shen Yue hurried over from the outer courtyard, the entire Wanlv Pavilion had been heavily surrounded by Xia Mansion's guards, and Mrs. Xia had already arrived.

Her hair was only pulled up in a random way, no makeup was applied, it was obvious that she was woken up from her sleep and came here in a hurry.

Shen Yue and An Yang entered the house, their eyes were wandering around the house, but they didn't see the person they were looking for.

On the contrary, Mrs. Xia saw them and went up to meet them.

The two quickly gathered their minds and saluted her.

Mrs. Xia naturally knew that they were worried, so she said, "Anxiang and the others are fine, changing clothes inside now."

When she finished speaking, there were footsteps on the stairs, and she turned her head to look over, and there were two figures walking down, and they were An Xiang and Ye Xinyi.

Both of them seemed to be unharmed, but Shen Yue was still worried, and fixed her worried eyes on her face until she shook her head and smiled at him slightly, reassuring him, Only when the restless heart fell to the ground.

God knows that he had just walked back to the guest courtyard, returned to the room and changed his night clothes, and before he could lie down, he heard the noise in the inner courtyard, saying that the Banlv Pavilion was assassinated, at that time he only felt that there was an explosion on the top of his head. Remembering the thunder, he got up and rushed out without thinking.All the way here, my heart has been hanging in the air. I never thought that with Ye Xinyi's skill, there are not many people in the world who can easily hurt her.

It wasn't until he confirmed with his own eyes that she was safe and sound at this moment that the atrium in his chest was able to beat normally again.

Here, the husband and wife have exchanged their thoughts silently, and the tacit understanding does not require words.

Over there, Anyang finally confirmed that Anxiang was unharmed, and he calmed down a little. He breathed out lightly, and when he turned to look at Mrs. Xia, there was a two-pointed look in the eyes of Xia's family. With a sharpness that had never been shown in front of him, "Mrs. Xia, what is going on?"

In this sentence, there is an obvious meaning of accusation.

After all, they were guests in the Xia Mansion, and An Xiang was assassinated in the inner courtyard of the Xia Mansion. How could the Xia Mansion give them an explanation for this matter.

They want to marry the Xia family, but it doesn't mean that they have to beg in a low voice. After all, if this marriage can be achieved, it will be of great benefit to the Xia family. It is really not a win-win situation for them. Don't wait for the dwarves.

Mrs. Xia obviously understood very well, she put her posture extremely low, and smiled apologetically, "This matter is still under investigation, none of us expected such a thing to happen, logically, the guards in our mansion shouldn't It is easy for people to break in... However, no matter what, this matter is still our negligence, I have already sent someone to report to the general, he will definitely come back, and personally explain to the two of you."

As Mrs. Xia said, she squatted down and bowed deeply to the two of them.This is considered a great gift in a daimyo, and with the status of Mrs. Xia, it can be said that it is not unreserved.

Anyang's face softened slightly, and just as he was about to say something, a deep voice suddenly came from behind him, "What's going on?"

They all looked back and saw Xia Changhe coming at the pace of a dragon, with his armor still on his body and his military boots making loud noises. In addition, Xia Changhe's face no longer had the hearty smile when they first met, but his face was serious. Holding the handle of the knife at his waist with one hand, as he walked, he seemed to be carrying a strong evil spirit, keeping strangers away.

Brother and sister Anyang and Anxiang stepped aside and saluted him.

Ye Xinyi and Shen Yue naturally hid behind them.

Xia Changhe entered the hall with his face sinking like water, and his eyes fell on Mrs. Xia, asking silently.

Mrs. Xia was not in a hurry, she took a step forward and said, "I don't know exactly what's going on, I just happen to be back, so let the general ask!"

Xia Changhe nodded, looked at An Xiang, softened his eyes slightly, and said with a slight smile, "Niece Xian is not injured, is she?"

An Xiang imitated the etiquette of the Han people, bent her knees and blessed Xia Changhe, then shook her head and said, "I'm fine, although the assassin came fiercely, but I have practiced some fists and kicks, and I am not completely powerless to fight back. , Ye Niang beside me is capable, and she arrived in time to prevent the assassin from succeeding. It's just that the general is always busy, and I have to trouble you to rush back from outside, so I really feel sorry."

"You don't have to feel sorry for it. You are a guest in my house. If something happens, I can't explain it to your father." Xia Changhe smiled, but his eyes were momentarily deep, "You said just now, the leaf next to you Mother?" His eyes had passed An Xiang, and he looked behind her.

After all, this is the only person An Xiang brought.

An Xiang's eyes glanced slightly behind her.

When Ye Xinyi made the move, she had already expected such a time, but at that time, she had no way to hesitate, and now, she can only use soldiers to block it, and the water will cover it up.

Shen Yue beside him still kept his eyes half down, looking at his nose and heart, and Ye Xinyi also took a step forward quietly, squatting down towards Xia Changhe.

"You are Ye Niang?" Xia Changhe's eyes no longer looked soft and slow when he looked at An Xiang, but when they fell on Ye Xinyi, they looked very sharp.

Ye Xinyi remained silent from beginning to end, and replied softly, "It's the servant girl."

"You know martial arts?" Xia Changhe's gaze was still fixed on her, deep and sharp.

"Knowing some superficial kung fu, it's not so superb, it's just a fluke, but it's just a lot of energy, thinking that no one can hurt my girl no matter what."

"General Xia!" An Yang listened for a while, frowning more and more tightly, and finally couldn't help raising his voice, "Isn't the most important thing now to track down the assassin? Why do you keep questioning my people here? If this Ye Niang hadn't been able to do some kung fu, I wouldn't have put her next to An Xiang for personal protection."

The displeasure in these words has not been concealed, and there is no longer the modest attitude of the juniors earlier, this moment Anyang is showing his sharpness.

Finally revealed the power and influence of the successors of the two-point family.

Xia Changhe and Mrs. Xia glanced at each other, and Mrs. Xia immediately stepped forward and sang red-faced, "Nephew and niece must not misunderstand, my general can't speak since he came, I must have misunderstood you."
