Chief Nie, just as Wei Xi said before, hires such assassins not to kill people, but just to make the killing smoother.
What Wei Xi wanted to do was to clear up the relationship after killing Yi Xiaotian, so he had to consider the issue of acting.
Therefore, people with extraordinary skills like Chief Nie are worthy of trust.

Time came to evening in a blink of an eye.
On the Wei Mansion side, after Lin Lan also led his men to the mansion, they seemed to have made sufficient preparations, and began to invite the scholars one after another to come into the mansion and take their seats.
And here at the craftsman’s workshop——
"Why are you here? I told you not to come to the city during this period..."
Yi Xiaotian looked at the beauties who had appeared beside him at some unknown time, and felt a little at a loss for a moment.
Looking at the worried faces and the big watery eyes, Yi Xiaotian instinctively wanted them to leave this place as soon as possible - and as a result, everyone became even more angry.
Cai Zhaoji walked directly to Yi Xiaotian and pinched the flesh of Yi Xiaotian's waist... There was strength in numbers. The originally aloof gentleman, Yi Xiaotian, was suddenly at a loss when surrounded by beautiful women.
"Sir, what are you talking about? If Ma Jun hadn't told us that you were going to the Wei Mansion for a banquet, we would still be in the dark until now - the Dragon Pond and Tiger's Den in the Wei Mansion, is it a place that you can enter and exit at will?
Sir, do you think they will have some scruples because of your identity?"
Cai Zhaoji took the lead and asked two questions in succession, leaving Yi Xiaotian speechless.
"This... oops... there are some things that I can't explain to you in just a few words. When I come back... when I come back, I will tell you carefully about my husband's considerations. You don't want to..."
Yi Xiaotian reluctantly explained to Cai Zhaoji, but it aroused opposition from Diao Chan, Lu Lingqi, Zhen Luo and others:
"No! Sir, don't try to escape from this topic. It was clearly said by him himself. If there are any important decisions in the future, he will definitely inform us in advance... Everyone is worried about him, and they will not necessarily stop him from doing things... but they were kept in the dark
The feeling in the drum…”
Even the youngest Huang Yueying stood up, but Huang Yueying didn't seem to be as angry as Zhen Luo and the others. She was a little shy and didn't say much. She poked Yi Xiaotian and whispered:
"Sir...please...please extend your hand..."
"Ah...ah?"
Yi Xiaotian was actually a little out of breath under the pressure of several girls. Looking at the crowd, Pang Degong, who had been ready to go for a long time, looked like he was watching a show. Ma Dai because his sister Ma Yunlu was there.
Among them, there was no intention of stepping forward to intervene. He held his head and whistled, making Yi Xiaotian grit his teeth.
However, Yi Xiaotian still reached out his hand subconsciously.
As a pair of gentle little hands wandered over his arms, and there was a click, Yi Xiaotian was surprised to find that there was a small armband on his arm——
"Yueying, this is..."
Everyone had finished scolding Yi Xiaotian, and their eyes fell on Huang Yueying. Of course the girls knew about it, but no one planned to speak——
"Yes... In the past few days, Yueying has been worried about your husband's safety, and has especially improved the crossbow that was used at home in Xiangyang. Now... you only need to hide the crossbow in your sleeve when necessary..."
Huang Yueying explained obediently, and raised Yi Xiaotian's right arm. She gently pressed a buckle on Yi Xiaotian's wrist, and then a crossbow arrow was shot in the direction of the wall——
"Pull the machine tongue, and the crossbow arrows will be fired... Although... although the damage is limited, but... Sir, please pay attention to your safety..."
Huang Yueying suddenly raised her head, stared at Yi Xiaotian closely with her blue eyes, and said with great eagerness and excitement:
"Sir is the support of my sisters and Yueying. We have no intention of blaming you...but...no matter what...please protect yourself...this...this is our greatest expectation..."
Maybe she really knew the dangers of this trip. Huang Yueying was so sensible, so she naturally understood that Yi Xiaotian had his own reasons for doing things. If she couldn't stop him, she would inevitably feel a little sad. She said such heartfelt words, and tears began to flow from her eyes.
——
"ah!"
Huang Yueying screamed and realized that tears were already dripping from her cheeks. She quickly covered it with her sleeves, trying to hide her gaffe. As a result, a pair of gentle and warm hands crossed her eyes and gently rubbed her face, helping her.
She wiped away her tears.
"Thank you, Yueying, sir, your thoughts have been received——"
Huang Yueying blushed and realized that at some point, Yi Xiaotian had already bowed slightly and came in front of her.
He smiled and patted Huang Yueying's head, and under the gaze of everyone, nodded to Cai Zhaoji, Zhen Luo, Diao Chan, Ma Yunlu and Lu Lingqi.
"I have received everyone's thoughts... So... I will never let everyone down this time, and I will definitely return safely... This is, this is my promise."
"That's good... That's good... Sir... walk slowly!"
Yi Xiaotian turned around, greeted Ma Dai and Pang Degong, and walked out of the workshop first:
"Waiting for my good news... let's go."
After boarding the carriage outside the door, Yi Xiaotian's calm but firm eyes came into everyone's eyes through the car window... As they gradually moved away, everyone silently prayed for the safety of Yi Xiaotian and others in their hearts.
——
Starting from Xuanpingmen, passing through the sparsely populated market, turning around several streets and alleys, until reaching the intersection of Luocheng, there is a ceremony being held in the Wei Mansion, which is probably the most eye-catching palace in Chang'an City today.
It was a banquet that everyone in Chang'an enjoyed and admired.
The banquet was not big, but the ceremony was so luxurious that it was inevitably reminiscent of the family banquets of princes and nobles. Some people commented that the rituals and music of the Wei Mansion were suspected of being superior.
But after knowing the origins of the host and guest, the poor scholars who were originally dissatisfied with this and had no qualifications to come to this banquet began to envy the group of scholars who were able to attend this banquet.
Not for anything else, just for the name Pang Degong.
And amidst such commotion and ambiguity, a strange carriage slowly stopped in front of the Wei Mansion——
At this moment, everyone held their breath.
Whether inside or outside the mansion, everyone was nervously watching the movement of the door curtain - until a pair of hands lifted the door curtain first, and two young men got out of the car first, and then, someone walked out of the door.
Finally, everyone exclaimed——
"It's Master Yi of Youjian Villa who is here! According to the rumors, it must be the one behind him!"
Someone was surprised to see Yi Xiaotian. The people of Chang'an City had heard of the dispute between Yi Xiaotian and Lin Wei, but everyone could see that such a banquet, which was in the nature of the Hongmen Banquet, was really unheard of.
Thinking of Yi Xiaotian coming with such a few people.
Some people were impressed, and some were worried - but soon everyone's eyes were attracted to the person behind him, especially when someone mentioned a certain rumor, everyone was sure of that person's identity.
"All the scholars in the world use jade as their support, but I heard that only the famous Xiangyang scholar Pang Degong likes to wear a medicine sickle——"
"Could it be that that person is..."
"Junior has seen Mr. Pang!"
"I've met Mr. Pang!"
When one person started, countless others started, and everyone respectfully paid homage to Mr. Pang De. However, Mr. Pang De's gentle wave of hands, indicating that everyone did not need to be polite, made them even more excited.
