    Chapter 239 I know who it is

    It was almost noon when Fang Jie took Hei Boy out of the Sanjin Houfu. Classes at the Martial Arts Institute were closed, so Fang Jie did not need to report. It was almost February 12th, so he decided to stop by Hongxiu Zhao on his way back.  lock up.  This was the first time that Fang Jie was preparing to start a business after arriving in the capital. He originally planned to give up on this business, but now he had to pay attention to it.

    The Great Sui Dynasty was different from previous lives. The status of merchants in the Great Sui Dynasty was very low.  Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, businessmen were ranked last.  Because of this, businessmen are not allowed to enter the officialdom Fang Jie had already planned before arriving in Chang'an City that he would not do business unless necessary.  But after arriving in Chang'an City, he realized that money is inseparable from everything.

    And among those big men, who doesn¡¯t have a business background?

    Although the salary of the Sui Dynasty was not low, if you had to rely on it to live your life, the adults would probably all live a miserable life.  Ever since he learned about the big people behind Huotong's downturn, Fang Jie became more and more determined to do business.  If you want to take a further step in your official career, it will be impossible without money.

    Setting up a garment workshop is only the first step. Fang Jie has many ideas in his mind.  But the most lacking thing is capital. If the garment business is started, everything else will be easy to take care of.  He didn't want to use too much of Wu Daodao's money, not because he was highly enlightened, but because he was worried that the money would be sorted out sooner or later, and he wouldn't be able to come up with it.

    Hei Xiaozi is like a person who has walked out of the deep mountains and forests for the first time. Everything he sees is new.  And he didn't seem to have the slightest awareness that he was a book boy. Sometimes he ran to the front to look at the seller of rouge and gouache, and sometimes he fell behind and squatted on the ground far away to look at the mastiff puppies.

    Fang Jie didn't bother to pay attention to him, and just walked forward on his own.

    When passing by an alley, I found a lot of people watching the excitement.  Fang Jie took a closer look and saw that there was a couple quarreling inside.  From time to time, bottles and jars were thrown out. Every time something was thrown out, the people watching outside cheered.

    "If you dare to throw away my rouge and gouache, I will throw away your four treasures of the study!"

    The noise was loud, and the onlookers outside shouted: "Throw the desk! Throw the bronze mirror!"

    ??Bronze mirrors are valuable things, and not just anyone can afford them.  Fang Jie smiled after listening for a while, then turned to leave.  At this moment, a long sword suddenly emerged from the crowd like a poisonous snake and went straight to Fang Jie's back!

    People¡¯s attention was focused on the noisy house, and no one noticed this sudden sword strike.  The man holding the sword swam out of the crowd like a spiritual snake, speeding forward with his feet. It looked as if the sword was flying forward with his body.  At this moment, Fang Jie had just turned around and was about to leave, but he didn't see the killing move behind him at all.

    But at this moment, there was a sudden panic among the crowd.  I don't know when the black boy actually squeezed into the crowd to watch the excitement. Just when his sword was about to stab Fang Jiehou in the heart, he suddenly rushed out of the crowd like a bull.  He lowered his shoulders and slammed forward. He didn't know how his skinny body could be so explosive, knocking the crowd to pieces.

    The assassin was startled. If he stabbed with this sword, he might succeed.  But if he didn't dodge, he would definitely get punched by the black boy.

    At the critical moment, he twisted his wrist and turned sideways in mid-air to escape.  He just moved away, and the black boy punched the wall behind him.  With a bang, a big hole was made in the hard blue brick wall.  After the punch missed, the black boy continued to catch up without stopping.

    The assassin turned around and stabbed the black boy in the heart with his sword. Who knew that the black boy didn't dodge or dodge? It looked like he was going to fight the assassin to the death. When the sword pierced his heart, his fist must have hit him.  On the assassin's temple.  The assassin was forced to dodge again by this rogue attack, but when he turned around, he found that Fang Jie was already standing in front of him.

    In front is Fang Jie, and behind is the black boy.

    The assassin was startled for a moment, and suddenly shouted, "Go!"

    With a bang, the wall on one side of the alley suddenly collapsed, and a strong man holding a giant hammer hit Fang Jie on the head!  This man must be at least two meters tall, and the heavy hammer in his hand must weigh at least three to five hundred kilograms.  If he were hit by this hammer, Fang Jie's entire body would be smashed into a puddle of mud.

    This man crashed into the courtyard wall and rushed out. The distance from Fang Jie was exactly the length of the sledgehammer in his hand.

    Fang Jie frowned and stepped back sharply.  Unparalleled explosive power exploded from his feet, and several green bricks were crushed by him.  The hammer came down with a bang and hit the ground hard.  A burst of thick smoke and dust rose up, and a large crater with a radius of half a meter was actually smashed into the solid road surface.

    The moment the heavy hammer fell, the sword-wielding assassin rushed forward.  My feet are floating lightly on the giant hammer that landed on the ground.He stepped on it and stabbed Fang Jie in the face with a sword.

    The black boy chased after the assassin, but was stopped by the strong man holding a heavy hammer.  The sledgehammer swung sideways, making a whistling sound.  If this hammer hit the black boy on the waist, it might be able to send him flying and break through the courtyard wall.  The black boy is thin and small, and the hammer head seems bigger than his upper body.  The strong man holding the giant hammer was strong and tall, and the black boy was barely taller than his butt.

    But what happened next shocked everyone who saw it.

    The black boy still refused to dodge, and suddenly opened his arms to hug the hammer head!  It seemed that if his weak body pressed against him, he would definitely be swung up with the sledgehammer.  In fact, Hammerhead, who was bigger than his upper body, was hugged tightly by him and stopped suddenly!  This is completely against people's common sense. Even if a galloping horse wants to stop, it still has to sprint some distance under the influence of inertia.  But the sledgehammer stopped abruptly in the black boy's arms, just like the picture was frozen.

    The black boy yelled and lifted up with all his strength.

    He actually lifted hundreds of kilograms of heavy hammers and at least two hundred kilograms of strong men together!  The black boy holding the hammer was like a powerful ant lifting a beetle several times larger than him.  The strong man was obviously taken aback. He let go of his hand and fell from the air, turning around and walking away.

    The black boy hesitated for a moment and did not chase him, but rushed towards Fang Jie.

    At this time, Fang Jie's whole body was shrouded in a curtain of light.  It was no longer possible to see where the sword was, and the flowing light covered Fang Jie's whole body.  Apart from retreating all the time, he could not find a chance to fight back.  The assassin drew his sword so fast that it was impossible to tell which one was the sword and which one was the shadow.

    Fang couldn't help but step back, and suddenly stepped hard with his foot.  The green bricks on the ground shattered and collapsed into a pit.  The assassin kept moving forward, suddenly stepped into the pit and tilted his body. The sword light was suddenly messed up, and Fang Jie took advantage of the situation and punched out.  The assassin turned back, pushed his foot on Fang Jie's fist, and flew out like a cannonball. He threw his hand in mid-air, and the long sword flew down and stabbed like lightning.  Fang solution.  Fang Jie only had time to dodge, and the sword cut open the clothes on his shoulders, leaving a trail of blood.

    Looking at the assassin again, he had already swooped away like a hawk.

    The black boy turned around to chase him, but Fang Jie stopped him and shook his head.  At this time, the people who were watching the couple's quarrel came to their senses. They didn't know who shouted first and immediately dispersed and ran away.

    Hei Xiaozi looked at the injury on Fang Jie's shoulder, and after confirming that it was just a puncture of the flesh, his expression gradually softened.

    "Did you bring any medicine for injuries?"

    Fang explained the question.

    The black boy shook his head and smiled, revealing two rows of white teeth: "Medicine? I never need that thing."

    Fang Jie curled his lips, straightened his clothes, then turned and walked back: "Now I finally know why my father-in-law chose you to be my personal book boy. With you I really feel safe."

    The black boy giggled a few times and turned to look in the direction where the assassin disappeared, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.

    ¡­¡­

    ¡­¡­

    News of Fang Jie¡¯s assassination spread quickly, and half an hour later, Feiyupao from the Ouchi Guards Department began to inspect the area.  An hour later, the news reached the East Nuan Pavilion of Tai Chi Palace.  An hour and a half later, Fang Jie was already on his way into the palace.

    With him, in addition to the black boy, there are also the strong man Nie Xiaoju and the scholar Chen Xiaoru.  Of course, there was also Shen Qingfan who was sitting in the carriage next to Fang Jie.

    Prince Yi¡¯s Mansion

    After Qin Liuqi truthfully told Prince Yi the news of Fang Jie's assassination, he stood aside with his head bowed.  Prince Yi, who was spreading fish food into the pond, was stunned for a moment when he heard the news. He looked back at Qin Liuqi and asked, "Who did it?"

    ¡°I don¡¯t know yet.¡±

    Qin Liuqi said: "It's definitely not from the mansion. It's impossible for the Snake Guard to go out without permission without instructions. Fang Henshui has never been out of the courtyard in Xicheng. My subordinates have already asked clearly about this."

    Prince Yi threw the fish food down and landed on the water with a splash.  Those koi carps that had not been frozen to death in the cold season swarmed up, and the water in this small pool started to boil like a boiling pot.  The koi carps compete for fish food, and the scene is quite spectacular.

    Prince Yi clapped his hands, was silent for a while and asked: "Yesterday, when you said that when the people in the court were discussing, someone mentioned that Wu Daodao might have given something to Fang Jie, right?"

    "yes"

    ¡°Could it be that some idiot couldn¡¯t wait any longer and sent someone to find Fang Jie???  "

    Qin Liuqi was startled for a moment, then slowly shook his head: "Probably not. Although they are a little stupid, they are not stupid enough to be so reckless, and their subordinates have already told them that, Your Majesty, you have arranged for people to be there.  If the thing is in Fang Jie¡¯s hands, he will definitely find it.¡±

    ¡°Go and ask!¡±

    Prince Yi waved his hand: "Everyone will ask before nightfall today."

    "My subordinates will do it now."

    "Wait a moment¡­¡­"

    Prince Yi suddenly stopped Qin Liuqi again: "Did you just say that the newly bought book boy that Fang Jie was carrying around had a good level of cultivation? If you just bought a book boy, it would be a big deal.  It is impossible to sell a master who is willing to be a book boy. The three new people around Fang Jie must be investigated to see who arranged it Tell Zhuang Die and let her be careful about those three people."

    "My subordinates understand."

    Qin Liuqi responded, turned around and left quickly.

    Prince Yi turned around, subconsciously picked up the clairvoyant on the table and looked towards the palace.

    "Who is causing trouble at this time?"

    He murmured to himself.

    ¡­¡­

    ¡­¡­

    Tai Chi Palace

    Dong Nuan Pavilion

    The emperor waved his hand and asked the serving eunuchs to go out, leaving only Su Buwei alone.  He asked the saluting Fang to untie himself, glanced at him lightly and asked, "Are you hurt?"

    Fang Jie lowered his head and said, "Skin injuries, don't worry."

    The emperor hummed and looked back at Su Buwei.  Su Buwei quickly lowered his head and said: "We still don't know who did it, but I have already informed Commander Luo and people from Qingya to investigate. The two assassins came very suddenly, without any warning, and they escaped very quickly."  , so the identity is difficult to determine. However, there is a tall man among them. It should not be difficult to find out with such obvious characteristics. People from the Ouchi Guards Department are already searching in the area. If there is any news, it will be reported back to the palace immediately.  "

    "Your Majesty"

    Fang Jie straightened up, sorted out his words and said, "There's no need to check, I know who sent the assassin."

    "oh?"

    The emperor's face changed slightly, he looked at Fang Jie and asked, "Who is it?"

    Fang Jie raised his finger and pointed at his nose: "It's me."
