Wu Sangui flew across the trees like a ferocious cheetah. Suddenly he jumped up, avoiding the two sharp arrows shot from behind, and jumped to the wall.
More than a dozen sharp arrows flew over at the same time, not only aiming at his throat, but also blocking his possible place of stay.
Wu Sangui flipped his arm, took off a two-foot-wide shield from behind, put it on his arm, then waved his arm to break the arrow net, and jumped under the wall
A long sword with serrated teeth slashed suddenly, and the sword and shield intersected. Wu Sangui was knocked back before he landed, and his back hit the wall hard.
Several figures fanned him in the middle, and opposite him was a woman
Wen Qingyu stared at him coldly. It turned out that the Wu envoy under the throne of Marquis Shang killed the man from my Wu Sect. Do you want to leave now?
Wu Sangui laughed and said: I was either killed by me, why am I just watching the excitement? Wu Sect is so domineering that he is not allowed to watch the excitement?
The envoy of Wu sneaked into the mansion and did not appear until this time. Isn’t there any suspicion?
There are many people in suspicion. Can you kill them all? Stop talking nonsense! Wu Sangui shouted: If Wu Zong wants to start a war, Wu will accompany him to the end today!
A big man stepped out of the darkness, and he slapped heavily on the ground with a spear, shouting in a thunderous voice: Who wants to start a war! Come on!
Wen Qingyu raised his eyebrows and stared at the tall man with a tall figure. After a while, he said: Let's go!
The Wu Sect retreated, Wu Sangui put away the dragon scale shield, raised his palm and hit the man hard, then held it together, and smiled and said: Lao Shi, is the Marquis coming too?
Shi Jingtang said helplessly: I'm here, but I haven't seen Master Hou yet
What's going on? Aren't you the ones who protect the Marquis in your own personal care?
I just arrived two days ago and said that I would like to appreciate the scenery of Luodu, so I left only words for us to wait. Shi Jingtang smiled bitterly and said: The Marquis' return to Luodu is like a dragon returning to his hometown. Where can we protect him?
Wu Sangui whispered: What happened in the mansion just now, but the Marquis... Not Shi Jingtang replied simply and said: What is the situation inside?
Han Dingguo is dead
That's good. Shi Jingtang didn't take this matter to heart and said with a smile: Luo is no better than other places. It's dark at night. How many lifangs can make a fuss all night, let's go to have a happy life!
Today's not done. Wu Sangui said: I want to see Young Master Cheng first
That's the case, let's have another appointment
Then that's it!
…………………………… Hundreds of sergeants were running around in the lieutenant's mansion, either tracking, searching, or being alert, but busy but not in a mess, showing the outstanding qualities of the Han army's elite. However, the assassin seemed to have evaporated, allowing them to turn the entire lieutenant's mansion to the sky, without any trace.
The pond is the top priority. The soldiers spread fishing nets and filtered the pond. Except for a few carp and a few remaining lotus, there was nothing else. The last few soldiers with good water dived to the bottom of the water and found that the culvert at the bottom of the pond was opened. They chased the canal outside. There was no trace of people, and there was no clue.
The tower of Xiangcheng Jun Mansion is not a place to stay for a long time. Everyone waited for a while. Seeing that the soldiers had nothing, they immediately left the little bitch and jumped down the stairs for the second time. They never came back. Cheng Zongyang was not worried. Anyway, this bitch would not suffer any loss in Xiangcheng Jun Mansion.
Cheng Zongyang asked Ao Run and others to return to their residence, and he and Lu Jing rushed to Pengyi Club. Before meeting the Xingyue Lake people who came from afar, he told them that the poppy girl stayed in the original place and continued to wait for news from Xiao Zi.
Luodu's curfew was useless for Lu Jing and others. The group passed through the room and crossed the ridge. In less than half an hour, they arrived at Pengyi Club, which was located in the business. Not long after, Wu Sangui also returned to the club and met again.
Wu Sangui explained in detail what he saw in the mansion, but he could not get close to Chiyuan and had never witnessed the assassination of Han Dingguo. It was only from the reactions of the sergeant in the mansion that Han Dingguo was indeed dead. As for who the assassin was, he also knew nothing.
When Wu Sangui mentioned that Shi Jingtang suddenly appeared outside the mansion, Cheng Zongyang remembered that the dead old man had disappeared for five days. Even his only successor to the robe and the Wu Zong had a big fight, he did not show up. I don’t know where he went to wander around again.
Wu Sanguidao: Cheng Touer, what should I do? Just tell us brothers.
Don't worry, Cheng Zongyang said: Let Chiang take you to get to know Luodu in the next few days, especially when you come near the two palaces, let's discuss it together
Yes! Wu Sangui responded with his chest straight
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: Xing Ah Chang Bo, after being with his brothers from Xingyue Lake Camp for so long, he looks like a sergeant. How is Jiangzhou doing recently?
Wu Sangui Road: If Young Master Cheng goes back, he will not be able to recognize that Jiangzhou is now more than twice as big as before. Twenty-seven stone forts were arranged along the city, and three were built in the river, surrounding the most dangerous reefs in the river, setting up two Shuimen North City with military camps, and dozens of cement kilns along the river, and newly set up cargo yards in the south of the city. The cement transported out every day, the iron ingots and grain transported in, and the horses are all in it. Now Jiangzhou and Yunzhou of the Song State, Muyu City in Zhaonan, and several major counties in the east have commercial roads. Caravans travel every day.
Double times larger than before? So fast? Cheng Zongyang said: There will not be too much labor levy, right?
Jiangzhou belongs to Xiajun in Jin State, and its population is not large. Now, after the war, he has been slaughtering labor for the city, which is probably harmful to the vitality.
There is no need for much labor. The city was built by the Song army for us. Wu Sangui smiled and said: When the Song army besieged the city, several high walls were built outside the city. The little marquis took people to see it. He directly reinforced the high walls. The outer layer was built into an outer city wall. The inside was a yard wall. The deep trenches were originally dug, and even the drainage canals were ready-made. Now Jiangzhou has nearly a thousand stones of cement that is polished every day. The speed of building a city is faster than Lao Wu's dream. The labor used is only 20% of the past. Ninety percent of the outer city is the credit of the Song army.
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: Why did the Song army come so many times? It turned out that he was a coolie.
Everyone laughed when they heard this
Cheng Zongyang first settled everyone, then discussed with Lu Jing, found a secret residence, and transferred the high IQ to the boys since they came to the door, they would definitely not give up and hide him first, so as not to cause trouble.
Lu Jingdao: Where is the right place?
It would be better to find a shop in Jinshi and send him quietly, killing two birds with one stone
Cheng Zongyang now knows that most of the shops in Jinshi are in the hands of the powerful people in Luodu. Some of them have been passed down for several generations and are rarely resold. The dead old man opened his mouth and was not afraid of the wind and his tongue flashing. Now it seems that he can only rent one with a lot of money first, which may not be possible.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Cheng Zongyang walked around the lieutenant's mansion, then found a place at the gate and bought some food as breakfast. He originally wanted to ask Jingli and Poppy Girl what happened last night, but the two girls did not show up. Cheng Zongyang was a little puzzled, but he did not have the ability to summon the servants. He had no choice but to go to the West Palace first to inquire about the news.
Xu Huang was in a bad mood, and when he heard about General Jianwei, he felt even worse.
These rats! They are so arrogant! Xu Huang slapped the table hard and said angrily
As Cheng Zongyang expected, Han Dingguo was assassinated and put the court in an extremely embarrassing situation. Last night, Nangong caught fire and closed the palace gate. Chen Sheng did not dare to break into the quota to report the news of Han Dingguo's death. It was not until dawn that he came to the imperial court to apologize and was furious when he heard the news. He immediately asked Chen Sheng to return to his mansion and stand by behind closed doors. Then he passed by Luodu Order and directly ordered the new Sili School Commander Dong Xuanche to investigate the matter. At that time, Tang Heng and others were there. Several Zhongchang servants tried hard to persuade him to change the investigation into secret investigation. At the same time, he concealed the cause of Han Dingguo's death from the outside, saying that he accidentally fell into the water after drinking and died.
At this time, it is not a good idea to openly question the Lü family.
The Empress Dowager is still here, how can Your Majesty not think about filial piety?
A small impotence will cause chaos and great plans. Your Majesty will be prosperous in spring and autumn, and the future will be long... This is generally the case for everyone to advise, but this cannot be passed on to the outside. Even if Xu Huang regards Cheng Zongyang as his own, it is difficult to disclose it.
The Lord is worried about the humiliation of the minister, and the Lord is humiliated by the minister. Xu Huang sighed: It makes the emperor worry, it is not the same as us slaves.
I don't know if the murderer is...
Xu Huang said with a gloomy face: Who else is there except that Zhu Anshi!
Zhu Anshi?
Several assassins who were killed have been checked by others, and they are all Zhu Anshi's disciples.
Those assassins were not the killers invited by Lu Ji, but Zhu Anshi's people? Cheng Zongyang said in confusion: What kind of hatred does Zhu Anshi have with Han Dingguo?
Zhu Anshi was just a missing dog. Xu Huang said hatefully: Those gangs of raids are holding bows and swords, are brave and fierce, call friends and attract people, gather their disciples, are unruly, and interact with princes, and can be called the world's worms!
From Xu Huang's words, Cheng Zongyang finally understood one thing: the court was about to attack Zhu Anshi.
Xu Huang took a breath and asked: The emperor asked you to go to the Dingtao Palace to deliver oral orders yesterday?
I don’t know what Lu Changshi said in front of the emperor if there is such a thing?
What can he say? It's just saying something the emperor doesn't like to hear. Xu Huang said: This matter is important, you go and pass the imperial edict first.
yes
……………………………………… Cheng Zongyang changed into his official uniform and went to Honglu Temple to get the talisman. He went to the Dingtao Palace to mourn the last time. Cheng Zongyang had already been here. This time he was familiar with the passage. When everyone in the royal residence saw Daxing Ling coming, they were shocked and asked him to enter.
Ao Run, the governor of the Honglu Temple, brought a lacquer box and opened it to reveal the white deer skin inside. Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: This white deer skin comes from Shanglinyuan, which is rare in the world. As Zi Yu gave it today, it shows his affection for King Dingtao.
Everyone in the palace couldn't figure out the depth and only wished the emperor a great success.
Cheng Zongyang said: King Dingtao received this reward, so he should come to Beijing to thank him
Everyone in the royal residence changed their faces, and Dingtao Xiang, who came to report the death and was still in the royal residence, asked carefully: My king is still young, and his carriage is exhausted, I am afraid... Cheng Zongyang said: This is the emperor's oral order.
When everyone in the royal palace heard this, most of the faces changed. It was obvious that they thought of a place with Cheng Zongyang. Several others were slightly stunned. Then they were moved and exchanged their eyes quickly. Ding Tao Xiangqiang suppressed his joy and pulled Cheng Zongyang to stay at the banquet with great affection.
The surprise of Dingtao Xiang made Cheng Zongyang quite confused and wanted to make a fuss, but Xiao Zi still has no news. He wished he could split himself into two people, so how could he have the mood to have a banquet here?
After Cheng Zongyang politely declined his gratitude, Dingtao Xiang held his hand and said earnestly: My king will come to the capital in the future, and I will ask Doctor Cheng to take care of him more. If there is any news in the future, I will not forget Doctor Cheng's kindness.
Cheng Zongyang casually responded and waited to get on the car and left the royal residence. Thinking of the sentence Ding Tao Xiang, there will be news in the future. The more Cheng Zongyang thought about it, the more interesting he felt.
The emperor rewarded King Tao and ordered King Tao to come to Beijing to thank him. It was really unreasonable. Ding Tao Xiang and others were surprised first and then happy, which was even more confusing. Could it be a good thing to let a three-year-old baby go to Beijing thousands of miles away? Where did the joy come from?
Cheng Zongyang thought about it, and suddenly felt aroused in his heart and shouted: So that's it!
From Dingtao's overjoyed reaction, Cheng Zongyang finally figured out the intention of the emperor's emperor's fiefdom is only one county, and several Dingtao kings were quite responsible. The newly established Dingtao king was just a three-year-old baby. It was impossible for the emperor to reduce the vassals at this time. Since it was not a reduction of the vassals, Liu Ao summoned the Dingtao king to the capital and had only one intention: establish an heir.
Liu Ao is only in his early twenties. If he was in his time, he would have thought it was too early to get married at this age, but he has been ascended to the throne for more than ten years and has no children yet. The position of the Eastern Palace has been empty. Now even the King of Zhao has been thinking about giving him the Prince Zhao, who is about the same age as him, as his son. It can be seen that Liu Ao's childbirth issue has become a major event that the government and the people are paying attention to.
King Zhao wanted to send his son to the palace as the crown prince. As the person involved, Liu Ao did not have his own plans? Instead of being appointed by the empress dowager as his son, it would be better to choose a Dingtao King's biological father who has passed away and is young enough. He chose him as his heir, which is a hundred times better than Prince Zhao.
No wonder Dingtao was overjoyed. If Dingtao King could inherit the throne, he would be the prime minister's fortunate. So that's it... Cheng Zongyang murmured, leaning against the carriage, but found that the carriage and horses had stopped. What's wrong?
Ao Run said confusedly: Don't Cheng, didn't you let the stop? I knocked it just now.
Cheng Zongyang realized that he was holding a scepter. He had just figured out the matter and knocked it on his own. Unexpectedly, Ao Run misunderstood to let him stop the car
Cheng Zongyang was about to speak, but Ao Run pointed to the alley next to him and said: Cheng Touer, Ban Chao, the last time you asked me to inquire about it, lives in this alley.
Is that true? Or is it a coincidence...
Cheng Zongyang took a look into the alley. The alley was quite dilapidated. It was obvious that no rich people lived here. Last time he met Ban Chao in Lantai, Cheng Zongyang was worried, but he had no time to visit him. He happened to pass by the door now, and it was a pity that he just walked away like this. After all, that was Ban Chao. Let's go and have a look.
Ao Run parked the carriage, Cheng Zongyang got out of the car and walked into the alley.
Seeing an official wearing a hairpin and a crown and wearing a black robe coming in, pedestrians in the alley retreated to both sides, Luodu is located at the foot of the emperor, and the residents in the city were used to seeing high-ranking officials. Not to mention that Cheng Zongyang was only 600 stones, even if two thousand stones came, these residents might not necessarily give face. However, the scepter in Cheng Zongyang's hand represented the king's order. When everyone saw him coming to hold the ritual, they couldn't help but show a look of awe, thinking that he was coming on the order of the emperor.
Seeing everyone's eyes falling on the scepter in his hands, Cheng Zongyang also realized that he had been misunderstood, but he could not put away the scepter. He could only carry the scepter along the way. The scepter was a fine copper stick, golden in color. There was a piece of oxtail called scepter hanging on the stick, and the tail feathers of pheasants were decorated on the top. Since the original scepter was made of bamboo and changed to copper, the body of the scepter was still like a bamboo pole. When Su Wu went to the Huns for 19 years, he was detained for 19 years and was able to keep his scepter, so that the scepter was all gone. The scepter he held was this kind of scepter.
Ao Run turned left and right, and arrived at a door in the alley. He was about to come forward to knock on the door. Cheng Zongyang waved his hand and went forward to knock on the door in person. Can Mr. Ban be at home?
Someone inside laughed and said: A guest came. Then the door opened and a scholar walked out. He was shocked when he saw an official holding a feud outside.
Seeing the person clearly, Cheng Zongyang almost wanted to cover his face with his sleeves, and turned his head and left. The scholar was tall, wearing a Confucian uniform, but his sleeves were rolled up between his elbows, and his hands were wet and holding a rag. It seemed that he was working in the work of tens of thousands of scholars from Luodu, but he knew not many of them, but he had seen this, and it also involved a very sensitive murder case, Yu Fengwen's classmate, Zheng Ziqing of Yuntai Academy.
Cheng Zongyang has seen him twice. The first time in Yique, Zheng Ziqing accused the young man of killing people in the daytime and committing murder in public. The second time was to investigate the truth about the Tangjiao Shop, when he and Lu Jing pretended to be booksellers to find Yu Fengwen. Before they met in the academy, they were just bystanders. The second time they only met him in a hurry, but if Zheng Ziqing recognized him, it would be difficult to explain.
Zheng Ziqing said politely: Are you here to find Mr. Ban?
Seeing that Zheng Ziqing did not recognize him, Cheng Zongyang calmed down, it was
Mr. Ban went to Lantai to copy books and could not come back in the afternoon. Zheng Ziqing said: I wonder what you are doing to find Mr. Ban?
I have heard of Mr. Ban’s name for a long time. I passed by here today. I came to visit me. Since Mr. Ban is not here, I will come again next day.
I would like to ask you for your surname? Zheng Ziqing explained: I and several classmates have been taught by Mr. Bangu. There is nothing wrong with the academy today. I will come to sweep the courtyard for you. I will tell you the next step.
He held a scepter in his hand and wanted to hide his identity unless Zheng Ziqing was blind Cheng Zongyang took out a piece of bamboo from his sleeve and said: My surname is Cheng, now living in the position of the Great Xingling of the Honglu Temple, is my name.
Zheng Ziqing took the Mingtao with both hands and bowed and said: I will report this matter to Mr. Ban.
Cheng Zongyang bowed and said: I'm working hard
The two left the house and saw that there was no one around. Cheng Zongyang handed over the scepter to Ao Run, then took off Jinxian crown, leaving only the square scarf with his hair tied, and then took off his official uniform, making him feel relaxed.
Ao Run rolled the official robe onto the scepter, held it under his armpit, and said: Cheng Touer, I see you wearing a powerful official robe, uniquely elegant
What a mighty Ah, dragging her sleeves to the ground and walking faster, the sleeves are full of wind, I feel like I should fly
When Ao Run heard his interesting words, he couldn't help but laugh: People are not bats, how can they fly?
Why can't I fly? I just fly over. If something had happened to the plane, would I have come to the Six Dynasties?
Nonsense? How can people fly? Ao Run doesn't believe it
When did I deceive you? Cheng Zongyang looked at the sky and pointed to the white clouds above and said: Flying up to the clouds, the white clouds were all under his feet, just like the boundless sea. When the sky was clear, looking down from the sky, the mountains, rivers and fields on the ground could be seen clearly... Ao Run also looked at the sky like him, and said skeptically: True or false? Cheng Touer, Lao Ao has never read a book, don't fool me.
The two walked out of the alley with laughter. After walking for a while, they didn't see the carriage. Instead, the alley became more and more biased.
Ao Run stopped and said with a look around and said: Have you taken the wrong path?
Could it be that I was just watching the sky and was walking in the wrong way? Cheng Zongyang said: I'll ask someone for a question
In a yard on the side of the road, a group of teenagers are playing the show. The content of the play is also very simple, just throwing money, and all three copper baht are the front.
Cheng Zongyang walked over and was about to speak, but suddenly he was stunned, and then anger appeared in his eyes.
A dirty old guy was squatting among the group of half-baby boys. He was now stretching his neck to stare at the copper dumped in the field, muttering: "Zhong!Zhong!"
Three copper zhu fell to the ground, two positive and one reversed, and the old man Zhu patted his thigh, looking disappointed, suddenly his ears tightened and he was pulled up
Cheng Zongyang yelled: Dear girl has no news yet, you old guy is in the mood to bet on money!
Oh... don't pull it, don't pull it...what happened?
The Wu Sect people chased after him and said that the dead girl killed their people and wanted to trouble him.
Old Man Zhu said: What's wrong with Zi Girl?
No news has been heard
Isn't that okay?... It's my turn! It's my turn!
Cheng Zongyang grabbed him, you have been sneaking out for five days and have been gambling all the time?
Who said I was just gambled? Old Man Zhu raised his feet proudly. Look, I won a pair of shoes yesterday
The pair of torn shoes is only left with one side. Fortunately, it is still cloth. If the straw sandals were supposed to be broken up, I don’t know where the old man’s pride was
Cheng Zongyang failed to hold him in a jail, but was squeezed over by Old Man Zhu and shouted: Me! Me!
Old Man Zhu grabbed the Tongzhu and put it in his palm and shook it. This time, let you see the master's skills... As he said that, he blew hard into his palm and threw it to the ground.
A few copper coins were not yet stable, and a doll who was seven or eight years old dragging his nose led a 14 or 15-year-old boy, pointing to Old Man Zhu and said: It's him! I won, he still cheated and owed me money!
Old Man Zhu shook his beard and said: Who has been dependent? Who has been dependent? That handful doesn't count. You are serious. The old man has eaten more salt than rice you have eaten, and the bridge you have walked is more than the road you have walked... The young man was too lazy to talk nonsense to him, grabbed Old Man Zhu's clothes and pushed it to the ground. Old Man Zhu sat in the gray nest like a soil bomb, with dust flying all over his butt
The young man shouted: Come on with the money!
Old man Zhu sat on the ground and hummed and said: Really... I really don’t have money... Whoever has a copper coin on him, who is the grandson... Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: Don’t look at me, I am the youngest of them, and I don’t have copper coins, so I can’t scold me.
The young man asked his brother, how much money does this old guy owe you?
The doll dragged his nose and said: Two words...
The young man spat and said: I don’t want two cents!
Old man Zhu smiled and just as he was about to get up, he heard the young man say: I don’t want money, and I can’t spare him in vain! Let this old guy see a melon!
Old Man Zhu's mouth immediately turned round, and the young men around him were all energetic, clapping their hands and drums and yelling: Here is an old man to see the melon! Here is an old man to see the melon!
The young man picked up Old Man Zhu, put it on the wall, and asked him to squat against the wall with his hands behind his back. Then he pulled open his belt, pulled open his pants, pressed the back of Old Man Zhu's head, and stuffed his head into his crotch.
Old man! Did you see the melon?
Old Man Zhu stuck out his butt and replied in a muffled voice in his crotch: I saw... I saw... Is the melon ripe?
Made... Made...
Has anyone stole melons?
I'm staring...
Be honest and squat! Look at your melon! You will let you go after half an hour of watching it!
Alas... Alas!
The young man took his pants to the back of his neck and tied his head into his crotch. He squatted at the base of the wall and looked at the melon with a bad look. Then he looked at Cheng Zongyang with a bad expression.
Cheng Zongyang laughed and raised his thumbs up and said: "Little brother, this kind of spirit! It's true that he can afford the four words "heroes"! I passed by, but I didn't know him, the old guy, at all. It's really not a thing! That... Little brother, how can I leave the alley?
The young man was praised by him a few words, put away his face, turned right
The two turned right, and soon found the original way when they came. After leaving the alley, they saw a carriage parked at the entrance of the alley from afar.
Ao Run said with concern: Head Cheng, Mr. Zhu... Isn't it just a look at melon? Isn't this good? Cheng Zongyang said: Why don't you go and serve him?
Ao Run's head was shaking like a rattle, you'd better kill me! That shame is thrown to grandma's house, and Lao Ao won't do it even if he dies.
Did you see it? The old guy doesn't even want his face. What else can he be afraid of in this world? Cheng Zongyang said: Don't worry, when he has enough fun, he will go back.
Cheng Touer, are we going back?
Cheng Zongyang thought about it, you go back first, I will go to the lieutenant's mansion to take a look
…………………………………………………………………………………………… The gate of the lieutenant was closed, and the surrounding area was deserted. Cheng Zongyang walked around the mansion, but still did not see Jingli and Poppy Girl. He felt a little uneasy and turned around and walked towards the Xiangcheng Jun Mansion in the neighboring yard.
With the waist sign on his body, Cheng Zongyang successfully entered the mansion, then climbed up to the watchtower's mansion and looked at Chen Sheng, waiting for punishment. There was no trace of a person in the entire mansion.
I would have a telescope... Cheng Zongyang thought to himself, and he was somewhat regretful that he gave the telescope he found in the ancient formation of Taiquan to Xiao Yaoyi. Suddenly, his heart was slightly terrified, and a trace of magic power fluctuation came from the air around him, as if someone was peeking from the void
Cheng Zongyang took a step back and hid his body in the shadow
I once felt this feeling around Lin Qingpu. It was the fluctuation of Shadow Moon Technique. I didn't expect that I would appear here. I remembered the water mirror technique that appeared last night. The identity of the caster was about to emerge. Chen Sheng had served as a minor official in the army for twenty years. Now the Captain of Shooting Sound actually came from the Yingyue Sect.
The fluctuation of magic power gradually disappeared, and Cheng Zongyang was still hiding in the shadow, until a voice sounded behind him, Cheng... Mr. Cheng
Hongyu said timidly: Madam wants to invite the young master to come over
Cheng Zongyang stepped in front of Hongyu, and before she could dodge her, she twisted her face and said with a smile: I'm not a monster, are you so scared? When I first met you, you were still a very powerful girl.
Hongyu seemed to be about to cry, she lowered her head and did not dare to say anything. Cheng Zongyang laughed and stopped teasing her. She followed her through the secret passage and came to the Ao Room where Xiangchengjun was.
As soon as he entered the door, Cheng Zongyang understood why the little maid had that expression just now
On Xiangchengjun's embroidered couch was a girl. Her chin was pointed, her face was like pearls and jade, her red lips were slightly raised, and she had a sly smile, who else could she be except Xiao Zi?
More than a dozen sharp arrows flew over at the same time, not only aiming at his throat, but also blocking his possible place of stay.
Wu Sangui flipped his arm, took off a two-foot-wide shield from behind, put it on his arm, then waved his arm to break the arrow net, and jumped under the wall
A long sword with serrated teeth slashed suddenly, and the sword and shield intersected. Wu Sangui was knocked back before he landed, and his back hit the wall hard.
Several figures fanned him in the middle, and opposite him was a woman
Wen Qingyu stared at him coldly. It turned out that the Wu envoy under the throne of Marquis Shang killed the man from my Wu Sect. Do you want to leave now?
Wu Sangui laughed and said: I was either killed by me, why am I just watching the excitement? Wu Sect is so domineering that he is not allowed to watch the excitement?
The envoy of Wu sneaked into the mansion and did not appear until this time. Isn’t there any suspicion?
There are many people in suspicion. Can you kill them all? Stop talking nonsense! Wu Sangui shouted: If Wu Zong wants to start a war, Wu will accompany him to the end today!
A big man stepped out of the darkness, and he slapped heavily on the ground with a spear, shouting in a thunderous voice: Who wants to start a war! Come on!
Wen Qingyu raised his eyebrows and stared at the tall man with a tall figure. After a while, he said: Let's go!
The Wu Sect retreated, Wu Sangui put away the dragon scale shield, raised his palm and hit the man hard, then held it together, and smiled and said: Lao Shi, is the Marquis coming too?
Shi Jingtang said helplessly: I'm here, but I haven't seen Master Hou yet
What's going on? Aren't you the ones who protect the Marquis in your own personal care?
I just arrived two days ago and said that I would like to appreciate the scenery of Luodu, so I left only words for us to wait. Shi Jingtang smiled bitterly and said: The Marquis' return to Luodu is like a dragon returning to his hometown. Where can we protect him?
Wu Sangui whispered: What happened in the mansion just now, but the Marquis... Not Shi Jingtang replied simply and said: What is the situation inside?
Han Dingguo is dead
That's good. Shi Jingtang didn't take this matter to heart and said with a smile: Luo is no better than other places. It's dark at night. How many lifangs can make a fuss all night, let's go to have a happy life!
Today's not done. Wu Sangui said: I want to see Young Master Cheng first
That's the case, let's have another appointment
Then that's it!
…………………………… Hundreds of sergeants were running around in the lieutenant's mansion, either tracking, searching, or being alert, but busy but not in a mess, showing the outstanding qualities of the Han army's elite. However, the assassin seemed to have evaporated, allowing them to turn the entire lieutenant's mansion to the sky, without any trace.
The pond is the top priority. The soldiers spread fishing nets and filtered the pond. Except for a few carp and a few remaining lotus, there was nothing else. The last few soldiers with good water dived to the bottom of the water and found that the culvert at the bottom of the pond was opened. They chased the canal outside. There was no trace of people, and there was no clue.
The tower of Xiangcheng Jun Mansion is not a place to stay for a long time. Everyone waited for a while. Seeing that the soldiers had nothing, they immediately left the little bitch and jumped down the stairs for the second time. They never came back. Cheng Zongyang was not worried. Anyway, this bitch would not suffer any loss in Xiangcheng Jun Mansion.
Cheng Zongyang asked Ao Run and others to return to their residence, and he and Lu Jing rushed to Pengyi Club. Before meeting the Xingyue Lake people who came from afar, he told them that the poppy girl stayed in the original place and continued to wait for news from Xiao Zi.
Luodu's curfew was useless for Lu Jing and others. The group passed through the room and crossed the ridge. In less than half an hour, they arrived at Pengyi Club, which was located in the business. Not long after, Wu Sangui also returned to the club and met again.
Wu Sangui explained in detail what he saw in the mansion, but he could not get close to Chiyuan and had never witnessed the assassination of Han Dingguo. It was only from the reactions of the sergeant in the mansion that Han Dingguo was indeed dead. As for who the assassin was, he also knew nothing.
When Wu Sangui mentioned that Shi Jingtang suddenly appeared outside the mansion, Cheng Zongyang remembered that the dead old man had disappeared for five days. Even his only successor to the robe and the Wu Zong had a big fight, he did not show up. I don’t know where he went to wander around again.
Wu Sanguidao: Cheng Touer, what should I do? Just tell us brothers.
Don't worry, Cheng Zongyang said: Let Chiang take you to get to know Luodu in the next few days, especially when you come near the two palaces, let's discuss it together
Yes! Wu Sangui responded with his chest straight
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: Xing Ah Chang Bo, after being with his brothers from Xingyue Lake Camp for so long, he looks like a sergeant. How is Jiangzhou doing recently?
Wu Sangui Road: If Young Master Cheng goes back, he will not be able to recognize that Jiangzhou is now more than twice as big as before. Twenty-seven stone forts were arranged along the city, and three were built in the river, surrounding the most dangerous reefs in the river, setting up two Shuimen North City with military camps, and dozens of cement kilns along the river, and newly set up cargo yards in the south of the city. The cement transported out every day, the iron ingots and grain transported in, and the horses are all in it. Now Jiangzhou and Yunzhou of the Song State, Muyu City in Zhaonan, and several major counties in the east have commercial roads. Caravans travel every day.
Double times larger than before? So fast? Cheng Zongyang said: There will not be too much labor levy, right?
Jiangzhou belongs to Xiajun in Jin State, and its population is not large. Now, after the war, he has been slaughtering labor for the city, which is probably harmful to the vitality.
There is no need for much labor. The city was built by the Song army for us. Wu Sangui smiled and said: When the Song army besieged the city, several high walls were built outside the city. The little marquis took people to see it. He directly reinforced the high walls. The outer layer was built into an outer city wall. The inside was a yard wall. The deep trenches were originally dug, and even the drainage canals were ready-made. Now Jiangzhou has nearly a thousand stones of cement that is polished every day. The speed of building a city is faster than Lao Wu's dream. The labor used is only 20% of the past. Ninety percent of the outer city is the credit of the Song army.
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: Why did the Song army come so many times? It turned out that he was a coolie.
Everyone laughed when they heard this
Cheng Zongyang first settled everyone, then discussed with Lu Jing, found a secret residence, and transferred the high IQ to the boys since they came to the door, they would definitely not give up and hide him first, so as not to cause trouble.
Lu Jingdao: Where is the right place?
It would be better to find a shop in Jinshi and send him quietly, killing two birds with one stone
Cheng Zongyang now knows that most of the shops in Jinshi are in the hands of the powerful people in Luodu. Some of them have been passed down for several generations and are rarely resold. The dead old man opened his mouth and was not afraid of the wind and his tongue flashing. Now it seems that he can only rent one with a lot of money first, which may not be possible.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Cheng Zongyang walked around the lieutenant's mansion, then found a place at the gate and bought some food as breakfast. He originally wanted to ask Jingli and Poppy Girl what happened last night, but the two girls did not show up. Cheng Zongyang was a little puzzled, but he did not have the ability to summon the servants. He had no choice but to go to the West Palace first to inquire about the news.
Xu Huang was in a bad mood, and when he heard about General Jianwei, he felt even worse.
These rats! They are so arrogant! Xu Huang slapped the table hard and said angrily
As Cheng Zongyang expected, Han Dingguo was assassinated and put the court in an extremely embarrassing situation. Last night, Nangong caught fire and closed the palace gate. Chen Sheng did not dare to break into the quota to report the news of Han Dingguo's death. It was not until dawn that he came to the imperial court to apologize and was furious when he heard the news. He immediately asked Chen Sheng to return to his mansion and stand by behind closed doors. Then he passed by Luodu Order and directly ordered the new Sili School Commander Dong Xuanche to investigate the matter. At that time, Tang Heng and others were there. Several Zhongchang servants tried hard to persuade him to change the investigation into secret investigation. At the same time, he concealed the cause of Han Dingguo's death from the outside, saying that he accidentally fell into the water after drinking and died.
At this time, it is not a good idea to openly question the Lü family.
The Empress Dowager is still here, how can Your Majesty not think about filial piety?
A small impotence will cause chaos and great plans. Your Majesty will be prosperous in spring and autumn, and the future will be long... This is generally the case for everyone to advise, but this cannot be passed on to the outside. Even if Xu Huang regards Cheng Zongyang as his own, it is difficult to disclose it.
The Lord is worried about the humiliation of the minister, and the Lord is humiliated by the minister. Xu Huang sighed: It makes the emperor worry, it is not the same as us slaves.
I don't know if the murderer is...
Xu Huang said with a gloomy face: Who else is there except that Zhu Anshi!
Zhu Anshi?
Several assassins who were killed have been checked by others, and they are all Zhu Anshi's disciples.
Those assassins were not the killers invited by Lu Ji, but Zhu Anshi's people? Cheng Zongyang said in confusion: What kind of hatred does Zhu Anshi have with Han Dingguo?
Zhu Anshi was just a missing dog. Xu Huang said hatefully: Those gangs of raids are holding bows and swords, are brave and fierce, call friends and attract people, gather their disciples, are unruly, and interact with princes, and can be called the world's worms!
From Xu Huang's words, Cheng Zongyang finally understood one thing: the court was about to attack Zhu Anshi.
Xu Huang took a breath and asked: The emperor asked you to go to the Dingtao Palace to deliver oral orders yesterday?
I don’t know what Lu Changshi said in front of the emperor if there is such a thing?
What can he say? It's just saying something the emperor doesn't like to hear. Xu Huang said: This matter is important, you go and pass the imperial edict first.
yes
……………………………………… Cheng Zongyang changed into his official uniform and went to Honglu Temple to get the talisman. He went to the Dingtao Palace to mourn the last time. Cheng Zongyang had already been here. This time he was familiar with the passage. When everyone in the royal residence saw Daxing Ling coming, they were shocked and asked him to enter.
Ao Run, the governor of the Honglu Temple, brought a lacquer box and opened it to reveal the white deer skin inside. Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: This white deer skin comes from Shanglinyuan, which is rare in the world. As Zi Yu gave it today, it shows his affection for King Dingtao.
Everyone in the palace couldn't figure out the depth and only wished the emperor a great success.
Cheng Zongyang said: King Dingtao received this reward, so he should come to Beijing to thank him
Everyone in the royal residence changed their faces, and Dingtao Xiang, who came to report the death and was still in the royal residence, asked carefully: My king is still young, and his carriage is exhausted, I am afraid... Cheng Zongyang said: This is the emperor's oral order.
When everyone in the royal palace heard this, most of the faces changed. It was obvious that they thought of a place with Cheng Zongyang. Several others were slightly stunned. Then they were moved and exchanged their eyes quickly. Ding Tao Xiangqiang suppressed his joy and pulled Cheng Zongyang to stay at the banquet with great affection.
The surprise of Dingtao Xiang made Cheng Zongyang quite confused and wanted to make a fuss, but Xiao Zi still has no news. He wished he could split himself into two people, so how could he have the mood to have a banquet here?
After Cheng Zongyang politely declined his gratitude, Dingtao Xiang held his hand and said earnestly: My king will come to the capital in the future, and I will ask Doctor Cheng to take care of him more. If there is any news in the future, I will not forget Doctor Cheng's kindness.
Cheng Zongyang casually responded and waited to get on the car and left the royal residence. Thinking of the sentence Ding Tao Xiang, there will be news in the future. The more Cheng Zongyang thought about it, the more interesting he felt.
The emperor rewarded King Tao and ordered King Tao to come to Beijing to thank him. It was really unreasonable. Ding Tao Xiang and others were surprised first and then happy, which was even more confusing. Could it be a good thing to let a three-year-old baby go to Beijing thousands of miles away? Where did the joy come from?
Cheng Zongyang thought about it, and suddenly felt aroused in his heart and shouted: So that's it!
From Dingtao's overjoyed reaction, Cheng Zongyang finally figured out the intention of the emperor's emperor's fiefdom is only one county, and several Dingtao kings were quite responsible. The newly established Dingtao king was just a three-year-old baby. It was impossible for the emperor to reduce the vassals at this time. Since it was not a reduction of the vassals, Liu Ao summoned the Dingtao king to the capital and had only one intention: establish an heir.
Liu Ao is only in his early twenties. If he was in his time, he would have thought it was too early to get married at this age, but he has been ascended to the throne for more than ten years and has no children yet. The position of the Eastern Palace has been empty. Now even the King of Zhao has been thinking about giving him the Prince Zhao, who is about the same age as him, as his son. It can be seen that Liu Ao's childbirth issue has become a major event that the government and the people are paying attention to.
King Zhao wanted to send his son to the palace as the crown prince. As the person involved, Liu Ao did not have his own plans? Instead of being appointed by the empress dowager as his son, it would be better to choose a Dingtao King's biological father who has passed away and is young enough. He chose him as his heir, which is a hundred times better than Prince Zhao.
No wonder Dingtao was overjoyed. If Dingtao King could inherit the throne, he would be the prime minister's fortunate. So that's it... Cheng Zongyang murmured, leaning against the carriage, but found that the carriage and horses had stopped. What's wrong?
Ao Run said confusedly: Don't Cheng, didn't you let the stop? I knocked it just now.
Cheng Zongyang realized that he was holding a scepter. He had just figured out the matter and knocked it on his own. Unexpectedly, Ao Run misunderstood to let him stop the car
Cheng Zongyang was about to speak, but Ao Run pointed to the alley next to him and said: Cheng Touer, Ban Chao, the last time you asked me to inquire about it, lives in this alley.
Is that true? Or is it a coincidence...
Cheng Zongyang took a look into the alley. The alley was quite dilapidated. It was obvious that no rich people lived here. Last time he met Ban Chao in Lantai, Cheng Zongyang was worried, but he had no time to visit him. He happened to pass by the door now, and it was a pity that he just walked away like this. After all, that was Ban Chao. Let's go and have a look.
Ao Run parked the carriage, Cheng Zongyang got out of the car and walked into the alley.
Seeing an official wearing a hairpin and a crown and wearing a black robe coming in, pedestrians in the alley retreated to both sides, Luodu is located at the foot of the emperor, and the residents in the city were used to seeing high-ranking officials. Not to mention that Cheng Zongyang was only 600 stones, even if two thousand stones came, these residents might not necessarily give face. However, the scepter in Cheng Zongyang's hand represented the king's order. When everyone saw him coming to hold the ritual, they couldn't help but show a look of awe, thinking that he was coming on the order of the emperor.
Seeing everyone's eyes falling on the scepter in his hands, Cheng Zongyang also realized that he had been misunderstood, but he could not put away the scepter. He could only carry the scepter along the way. The scepter was a fine copper stick, golden in color. There was a piece of oxtail called scepter hanging on the stick, and the tail feathers of pheasants were decorated on the top. Since the original scepter was made of bamboo and changed to copper, the body of the scepter was still like a bamboo pole. When Su Wu went to the Huns for 19 years, he was detained for 19 years and was able to keep his scepter, so that the scepter was all gone. The scepter he held was this kind of scepter.
Ao Run turned left and right, and arrived at a door in the alley. He was about to come forward to knock on the door. Cheng Zongyang waved his hand and went forward to knock on the door in person. Can Mr. Ban be at home?
Someone inside laughed and said: A guest came. Then the door opened and a scholar walked out. He was shocked when he saw an official holding a feud outside.
Seeing the person clearly, Cheng Zongyang almost wanted to cover his face with his sleeves, and turned his head and left. The scholar was tall, wearing a Confucian uniform, but his sleeves were rolled up between his elbows, and his hands were wet and holding a rag. It seemed that he was working in the work of tens of thousands of scholars from Luodu, but he knew not many of them, but he had seen this, and it also involved a very sensitive murder case, Yu Fengwen's classmate, Zheng Ziqing of Yuntai Academy.
Cheng Zongyang has seen him twice. The first time in Yique, Zheng Ziqing accused the young man of killing people in the daytime and committing murder in public. The second time was to investigate the truth about the Tangjiao Shop, when he and Lu Jing pretended to be booksellers to find Yu Fengwen. Before they met in the academy, they were just bystanders. The second time they only met him in a hurry, but if Zheng Ziqing recognized him, it would be difficult to explain.
Zheng Ziqing said politely: Are you here to find Mr. Ban?
Seeing that Zheng Ziqing did not recognize him, Cheng Zongyang calmed down, it was
Mr. Ban went to Lantai to copy books and could not come back in the afternoon. Zheng Ziqing said: I wonder what you are doing to find Mr. Ban?
I have heard of Mr. Ban’s name for a long time. I passed by here today. I came to visit me. Since Mr. Ban is not here, I will come again next day.
I would like to ask you for your surname? Zheng Ziqing explained: I and several classmates have been taught by Mr. Bangu. There is nothing wrong with the academy today. I will come to sweep the courtyard for you. I will tell you the next step.
He held a scepter in his hand and wanted to hide his identity unless Zheng Ziqing was blind Cheng Zongyang took out a piece of bamboo from his sleeve and said: My surname is Cheng, now living in the position of the Great Xingling of the Honglu Temple, is my name.
Zheng Ziqing took the Mingtao with both hands and bowed and said: I will report this matter to Mr. Ban.
Cheng Zongyang bowed and said: I'm working hard
The two left the house and saw that there was no one around. Cheng Zongyang handed over the scepter to Ao Run, then took off Jinxian crown, leaving only the square scarf with his hair tied, and then took off his official uniform, making him feel relaxed.
Ao Run rolled the official robe onto the scepter, held it under his armpit, and said: Cheng Touer, I see you wearing a powerful official robe, uniquely elegant
What a mighty Ah, dragging her sleeves to the ground and walking faster, the sleeves are full of wind, I feel like I should fly
When Ao Run heard his interesting words, he couldn't help but laugh: People are not bats, how can they fly?
Why can't I fly? I just fly over. If something had happened to the plane, would I have come to the Six Dynasties?
Nonsense? How can people fly? Ao Run doesn't believe it
When did I deceive you? Cheng Zongyang looked at the sky and pointed to the white clouds above and said: Flying up to the clouds, the white clouds were all under his feet, just like the boundless sea. When the sky was clear, looking down from the sky, the mountains, rivers and fields on the ground could be seen clearly... Ao Run also looked at the sky like him, and said skeptically: True or false? Cheng Touer, Lao Ao has never read a book, don't fool me.
The two walked out of the alley with laughter. After walking for a while, they didn't see the carriage. Instead, the alley became more and more biased.
Ao Run stopped and said with a look around and said: Have you taken the wrong path?
Could it be that I was just watching the sky and was walking in the wrong way? Cheng Zongyang said: I'll ask someone for a question
In a yard on the side of the road, a group of teenagers are playing the show. The content of the play is also very simple, just throwing money, and all three copper baht are the front.
Cheng Zongyang walked over and was about to speak, but suddenly he was stunned, and then anger appeared in his eyes.
A dirty old guy was squatting among the group of half-baby boys. He was now stretching his neck to stare at the copper dumped in the field, muttering: "Zhong!Zhong!"
Three copper zhu fell to the ground, two positive and one reversed, and the old man Zhu patted his thigh, looking disappointed, suddenly his ears tightened and he was pulled up
Cheng Zongyang yelled: Dear girl has no news yet, you old guy is in the mood to bet on money!
Oh... don't pull it, don't pull it...what happened?
The Wu Sect people chased after him and said that the dead girl killed their people and wanted to trouble him.
Old Man Zhu said: What's wrong with Zi Girl?
No news has been heard
Isn't that okay?... It's my turn! It's my turn!
Cheng Zongyang grabbed him, you have been sneaking out for five days and have been gambling all the time?
Who said I was just gambled? Old Man Zhu raised his feet proudly. Look, I won a pair of shoes yesterday
The pair of torn shoes is only left with one side. Fortunately, it is still cloth. If the straw sandals were supposed to be broken up, I don’t know where the old man’s pride was
Cheng Zongyang failed to hold him in a jail, but was squeezed over by Old Man Zhu and shouted: Me! Me!
Old Man Zhu grabbed the Tongzhu and put it in his palm and shook it. This time, let you see the master's skills... As he said that, he blew hard into his palm and threw it to the ground.
A few copper coins were not yet stable, and a doll who was seven or eight years old dragging his nose led a 14 or 15-year-old boy, pointing to Old Man Zhu and said: It's him! I won, he still cheated and owed me money!
Old Man Zhu shook his beard and said: Who has been dependent? Who has been dependent? That handful doesn't count. You are serious. The old man has eaten more salt than rice you have eaten, and the bridge you have walked is more than the road you have walked... The young man was too lazy to talk nonsense to him, grabbed Old Man Zhu's clothes and pushed it to the ground. Old Man Zhu sat in the gray nest like a soil bomb, with dust flying all over his butt
The young man shouted: Come on with the money!
Old man Zhu sat on the ground and hummed and said: Really... I really don’t have money... Whoever has a copper coin on him, who is the grandson... Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: Don’t look at me, I am the youngest of them, and I don’t have copper coins, so I can’t scold me.
The young man asked his brother, how much money does this old guy owe you?
The doll dragged his nose and said: Two words...
The young man spat and said: I don’t want two cents!
Old man Zhu smiled and just as he was about to get up, he heard the young man say: I don’t want money, and I can’t spare him in vain! Let this old guy see a melon!
Old Man Zhu's mouth immediately turned round, and the young men around him were all energetic, clapping their hands and drums and yelling: Here is an old man to see the melon! Here is an old man to see the melon!
The young man picked up Old Man Zhu, put it on the wall, and asked him to squat against the wall with his hands behind his back. Then he pulled open his belt, pulled open his pants, pressed the back of Old Man Zhu's head, and stuffed his head into his crotch.
Old man! Did you see the melon?
Old Man Zhu stuck out his butt and replied in a muffled voice in his crotch: I saw... I saw... Is the melon ripe?
Made... Made...
Has anyone stole melons?
I'm staring...
Be honest and squat! Look at your melon! You will let you go after half an hour of watching it!
Alas... Alas!
The young man took his pants to the back of his neck and tied his head into his crotch. He squatted at the base of the wall and looked at the melon with a bad look. Then he looked at Cheng Zongyang with a bad expression.
Cheng Zongyang laughed and raised his thumbs up and said: "Little brother, this kind of spirit! It's true that he can afford the four words "heroes"! I passed by, but I didn't know him, the old guy, at all. It's really not a thing! That... Little brother, how can I leave the alley?
The young man was praised by him a few words, put away his face, turned right
The two turned right, and soon found the original way when they came. After leaving the alley, they saw a carriage parked at the entrance of the alley from afar.
Ao Run said with concern: Head Cheng, Mr. Zhu... Isn't it just a look at melon? Isn't this good? Cheng Zongyang said: Why don't you go and serve him?
Ao Run's head was shaking like a rattle, you'd better kill me! That shame is thrown to grandma's house, and Lao Ao won't do it even if he dies.
Did you see it? The old guy doesn't even want his face. What else can he be afraid of in this world? Cheng Zongyang said: Don't worry, when he has enough fun, he will go back.
Cheng Touer, are we going back?
Cheng Zongyang thought about it, you go back first, I will go to the lieutenant's mansion to take a look
…………………………………………………………………………………………… The gate of the lieutenant was closed, and the surrounding area was deserted. Cheng Zongyang walked around the mansion, but still did not see Jingli and Poppy Girl. He felt a little uneasy and turned around and walked towards the Xiangcheng Jun Mansion in the neighboring yard.
With the waist sign on his body, Cheng Zongyang successfully entered the mansion, then climbed up to the watchtower's mansion and looked at Chen Sheng, waiting for punishment. There was no trace of a person in the entire mansion.
I would have a telescope... Cheng Zongyang thought to himself, and he was somewhat regretful that he gave the telescope he found in the ancient formation of Taiquan to Xiao Yaoyi. Suddenly, his heart was slightly terrified, and a trace of magic power fluctuation came from the air around him, as if someone was peeking from the void
Cheng Zongyang took a step back and hid his body in the shadow
I once felt this feeling around Lin Qingpu. It was the fluctuation of Shadow Moon Technique. I didn't expect that I would appear here. I remembered the water mirror technique that appeared last night. The identity of the caster was about to emerge. Chen Sheng had served as a minor official in the army for twenty years. Now the Captain of Shooting Sound actually came from the Yingyue Sect.
The fluctuation of magic power gradually disappeared, and Cheng Zongyang was still hiding in the shadow, until a voice sounded behind him, Cheng... Mr. Cheng
Hongyu said timidly: Madam wants to invite the young master to come over
Cheng Zongyang stepped in front of Hongyu, and before she could dodge her, she twisted her face and said with a smile: I'm not a monster, are you so scared? When I first met you, you were still a very powerful girl.
Hongyu seemed to be about to cry, she lowered her head and did not dare to say anything. Cheng Zongyang laughed and stopped teasing her. She followed her through the secret passage and came to the Ao Room where Xiangchengjun was.
As soon as he entered the door, Cheng Zongyang understood why the little maid had that expression just now
On Xiangchengjun's embroidered couch was a girl. Her chin was pointed, her face was like pearls and jade, her red lips were slightly raised, and she had a sly smile, who else could she be except Xiao Zi?
