In front of the government is a wide street, there are no trees and trees, and it is scorching in the sun, and there are few people gathering here every day, of course, not because of fear of heat, but because the government is heavy, and people are not allowed to approach. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time today, many people gathered in all directions, and their eyes were all looking at the open space square in front of the palace, where a man held a large flag in his hand and a large knife in the other.

"What's wrong?"

"What is this?"

The newcomers buzzed with questions.

"He said it was the assassin murderer last night. He replied loudly, one step earlier.

Although last night's incident happened outside the city, the entire Chang'an City was searched in the middle of the night, and the people were also alarmed, and the specific matter was not clear, but they only knew that it was a very terrible murderer, and this was the murderer? The people surged forward on tiptoe one after another to see if it was a fierce god with three heads and six arms.

It is a pity that the murderer is no different from ordinary people, he is twenty-three or four years old, dressed in black, messy and broken, covered with bloodstains, his face is dark, and his expression is blank.

But he is such an ordinary person, but he makes the officers and soldiers like a great enemy.

"Put down your weapons!"

"Tied up!"

They shouted chaotically, holding the weapons in their hands little by little, but always keeping a distance.

The young man just stood still, like a clay sculpture.

After a while, there was a commotion on the side of the officers and soldiers: "The prefect is here." Giving way to a road, Li Guangyuan hurried under the crowd of people.

Li Guangyuan wanted to approach the man, but was stopped by his subordinates.

"Be careful, sir. ”

"Adults can't. ”

"I don't know how many people are in the same party. ”

After some blocking, Li Guangyuan stood not far away, looked at the man and shouted in a deep voice: "Bold murderer, you can't be arrested before you tie your hands." ”

The young man looked at him and said, "I'm not a murderer. He looked at the knife in his hand, "I didn't even know how to hold a knife, I'm just a scholar." ”

Scholar?

Li Zhifu shouted: "Since you are a saint's child, why do you still do such a heart-wrenching thing!"

The young man took a step forward suddenly, pointed the knife in his hand at Governor Li's mansion, and said, "That's what you corrupt officials forced me to do!"

His actions made the officers and soldiers in front of him nervous, and Governor Li was also escorted and retreated, not that everyone was too timid, but the thieves who killed Zong Zhou had to be guarded.

Governor Li broke away from the encirclement of his subordinates and said: "If you have a grievance, you will avenge it, and what kind of hero is it to commit murder wantonly." ”

The young man laughed, pointed the knife to the sky, and said: "Avenge the grievances, I Zhong Shisan have been avenging the grievances for three years, but the family is ruined, since there is no one to avenge me, then I will do the right thing for the heavens, you don't ask about the crime of Zong Zhou, I will personally kill him." ”

The onlookers were in a commotion, and it was not until this moment that they knew who last night's incident was aimed at, and this kind of civilian's confrontation with the big officials always made people inexplicably excited.

The reaction of the surrounding crowd seemed to excite the young man, who shook the flag in his hand.

"Zong Zhou's heart is ruthless and corrupt, in the name of choosing a palace maid, he snatches the people's daughters, and asks for bribes..."He shouted loudly, the banner fluttered under the scorching sun, revealing the bright red characters on it, line by line, like blood splashing, "I was originally a son of the Gaozhou Zhong family, and I only read the sage books, because I refused to choose the younger sister of Zong Zhou, my Tang Zhong family's century-old clan was persecuted and fragmented by him..."

The young man's voice echoed violently, telling of the tragic story of the destruction of his family, which caused more and more people around him to become more and more chaotic.

"Stop him, sir. "An official proposed that this man scolded the heavens and the earth, and the court was also disgraced.

Governor Li shook his head and said, "Let him say... The clearer it is, the better, it has nothing to do with my Chang'an Mansion. ”

The people around understood that if Zong Zhou had an accident in Chang'an Mansion, the court would definitely be furious, and Chang'an Mansion would have to be in trouble, and now if the murderer can be caught, the punishment can be reduced.

Li Zhifu said: "You must catch it alive." ”

When he said this, he saw that Zhong Shisan was getting more and more excited, and waved the big flag in his hand.

“... You don't have to arrest anyone else.... These are all heroes invited by me Zhong Shisan, collect money to do things, and I do things by myself..."He said, laughing again, "The emperor is not worthy of it, Zong Zhou is dead, and one hundred and twenty people of the Zhong clan can be blinded... The emperor is dead..."

He held a flag in one hand and a knife in the other, looked up to the sky and laughed, and the big knife fell on his shoulder....

"It's not good!" Governor Li shouted, stretching out his hand and pointing, "Take it down, don't let him kill himself." ”

With his order, a crossbowman who had been waiting for a long time released the bowstring with a click, and the feather arrow flew straight towards Zhong Shisan, accompanied by the exclamation of the onlookers, the feather arrow hit Zhong Shisan's hand holding the knife.

It is indeed a scholar, the weak hand Zhong Shisan screamed in pain, the flagpole fell, the big knife fell to the ground, he bent over with his hands, and the officers and soldiers around him took the opportunity to rush up.

"Take it, take it. ”

"Take it away, take it away. ”

The shouts and shouts were chaotic, and soon Zhong Shisan was tied up and carried towards the mansion, and Li Zhifu and others naturally followed, and in a blink of an eye, only the big flag that fell to the ground and was trampled in front of the mansion was left, and the people around rushed up to surround the flag, you push me.

"Hurry up. ”

"Let the literate come. ”

Then different voices rang out, large and small, reading the blood book on the flag.

Zhang Liantang didn't listen to the noise anymore and turned around and walked out of this side.

A small servant approached from the side and said: "Ask clearly, three years ago, Zong Zhou went to Gaozhou, Zhong's poetry and books, Zong Zhou was ridiculed by his children for writing poems at Zhong's family banquet, Zhong had three daughters who were selected, and they died in the water before leaving Gaozhou, Zong Zhou said that he committed suicide, Zhong said that he was assassinated by Zong Zhou, and the two parties fought a lawsuit for this, and Zhong also went to sue the royal court. ”

Zhang Shuangtong shook his fan and said, "So the Zhong family was destroyed and wiped out?"

The little servant responded, and said: "The Zhong family runs a bookstore, and it was found that he printed a collection of books that were disrespectful to the first emperor, and asked about the crime of disobedience, and the family copied and beheaded... From the white-haired old man to the toddler, a total of 123 people... There is indeed a descendant named Zhong Shisan, who is the eldest grandson of the third room, who was away from study at that time and was able to escape, and then disappeared. ”

Zhang Shuangtong put away the fan and slapped it in the palm of his hand, and said, "It turned out to be a green forest." After talking for a long time, he didn't see Zhang Liantang speak, but just stared forward with his eyebrows, "Brother Liantang, this person is very powerful." ”

Zhang Liantang sighed and said, "This." He looked back and frowned slightly, "It's like acting... Scholar. ”

Zhang Shuangtong said: "What's wrong with the scholar? Xue Qing still carries an iron rod with him." ”

Zhang Liantang retracted his gaze and said, "That's why is this strange, why did you say he went to see Young Master Chunyang with a weapon?"

Zhang Shuangtong said: "Of course, it is indispensable to defend against people. ”

Zhang Liantang shook his head and said: "Unlike him, he is the one who solves the Keju matter on the Keju field, and the bet will naturally be settled by betting." ”

Zhang Shuangtong grinned and said, "Then is he carrying a weapon to kill people?" After saying that, he laughed first, and then lowered his voice, "For what?

The neighbor's little sister was selected to enter the palace and take away, and Xue Qing was very concerned.

Zhang Liantang didn't laugh, seemed to groan, and said to himself: "If he can, he should be." ”

It's just that of course he can't, how can it be.....

Zhang Shuangtong shook his head and said: "Now I don't want to say whether I can dance with a knife and a gun anymore, and whether I can still hold a pen and write with my right hand..." sighed, thinking of Xue Qing's injury, it's a pity.

"Is there a good doctor to please? ”

"It's an injury, not a disease, and sometimes the doctor can't help it. ”

The two brothers whispered and walked along the street, and some people on the street were still calling friends to run to the government office, knocking the two brothers who were going in the opposite direction into a crooked place, and the guys in the store also closed the door and ran to see the excitement, but not all of them were curious.

In front of a fresh fish shop, the shopkeeper leaned against the door wrapped in a headscarf and watched the crowd running on the street, but she did not have the slightest curiosity, but was listless, perhaps because the customers who bought fish had run away, there were always people who remembered the most about things related to themselves, as for Zong Zhou, whether it was revenge or hatred, it was actually something that had nothing to do with their lives.

Zhang Liantang walked over with a frown.

Although Zhong Shisan voluntarily surrendered, the government would not stop there, after all, this matter was not something he could do alone, the murderer still had to continue to pursue and suppress, and the scope of the pursuit had been expanded to the periphery of Chang'an City, and a curfew was imposed in Chang'an City at night.

The city gate is closed, the lively night market in the past is also rare, only occasionally there are pedestrians who return late in a hurry, restaurants and tea shops are also closed, the night is thick and there is only one shop open on the whole street, and you can see that this is an iron shop when you get closer.

The fire was still burning, but the blacksmith did not swing his hammer to work, but sat by the fire, and his face became more and more black and red from the flames, and his hair and beard were a little scorched, but the blacksmith seemed to be unaware of it, and just looked at the fire like an old monk.

There are few people on the street, and both the high gate and the small house are closed, but the houses that are closed are still their daily routines, and they are more lively than in the past, and it is naturally the assassination of Zong Zhou, which is a rare event, enough for the people of Chang'an City to be said for a long time.

However, not everyone will talk about it, such as the Guo family.

"Then the Liu family still doesn't plan to give an explanation?" Guo Huaichun shouted angrily.

Steward Wu bowed his head and responded.

Mrs. Guo sighed on the side and said: "Master, what can you say about the dispute between these children? People insist that Xue Qing did it first, but the weapon is his, saying that Liu Chunyang has no reason to do it." ”

Guo Bao'er was busy on the side: "Yes, there are some, Xue Qing and Liu Wu'er have a gambling contract to get married, and Liu Chunyang is annoyed..."

Guo Huaichun said angrily: "Get out." ”

Guo Bao'er was quite unconvinced, Mrs. Guo hurriedly got up and pushed her out, and said, "Your father is upset, you go to Zi'an Ziqian to play." ”

Guo Bao'er snorted a few times and ran to find Guo Zi'an, Guo Ziqian was sitting in the room sighing and talking about Xue Qing's injury.

"I don't think it's saved, it's hopeless. He said, pointing to his arm, "This is penetrating, useless." ”

Guo Zi'an sneered: "It's really a bad thing, it's so good to beat us, but it was abolished by Liu Chunyang, who hasn't practiced martial arts for a day..."

Guo Bao'er said: "Doesn't that mean that we are not as good as Liu Chunyang? ”

Guo Ziqian nodded and said, "I have to avenge my eldest brother." ”

Guo Zi'an snorted, Xue Qing was a big brother, he only felt irritable, "I don't care about him, I will take revenge myself." ”

If you want to take revenge, you have to get better first, the last time I was injured and fainted, but there was no such bloody limb mutilation, it would be good if the person could wake up and raise for a few days, but this time it didn't hurt the head, and the person woke up quickly, but the limb injury is not to say that it can be raised well.

Everyone knows this truth, Xue Mu knows, Xue Qing also knows that she woke up at dawn today, but she kept pretending to be unconscious, first, she didn't want to speak, and second, she didn't want to face Xue Mu's tears, but despite this, Xue Mu's crying didn't stop for a day.

The medicine I took had a calming effect, but I couldn't sleep steadily, and the wound was too painful.

In this era when there is no painkiller, the flesh injury is really guilty, Xue Qing woke up in a daze with Xue's mother's cry, and when he woke up again by the burning pain, the room was already covered in night, Xue Mu lay on the table and seemed to be tired of crying and fell asleep, and the room was faint in the room where the oil lamp jumped.

Xue Qing couldn't help but let out a long sigh, it stands to reason that she should say what she thinks now, but she doesn't have any ideas, there is absolutely no regret, what she Xue Qing wants to do must be a choice from her heart, and she will never regret it, and then be afraid...... It's not to talk about it, killing people is unpredictable in the first place.

The only regret is that she is not thoughtful enough, she didn't find out that Zong Zhou was a master, and she thought she was really a eunuch who liked to compose poetry, but she couldn't find out in such a short time, she really didn't plan to kill Zong Zhou at first, she just wanted to take away the cicada clothes, until she met Zhang Bao, she didn't move the murderous intention, especially Zong Zhou said that she had already found her by the lake, so you have to live and die.

In the end, she still won, although she paid the price of an arm, but without Zong Zhou, her life will not be affected, and she can still teach with her left hand.

There was a snort in the room.

Xue Qing tensed up for an instant, but relaxed again the next moment.

"Look at your face, are you quite happy?" said Mr. Four Brown's voice from the corner of the room.

Xue Qing said: "Sir, you are back, of course the students are happy to see you." ”

Mr. Si Brown came out of the corner, the dim light shone on his elongated face, and said, "Don't tell me nice things, I'm not a fool." ”

Xue Qing looked at him sideways on the bed and said with a smile: "It's true, I'm really happy to see Mr." ”

I'm really happy.

"I don't know, I think I miss you a lot. Xue Qing said.

The pale young man lying on the bed had a shallow smile on his face, as quiet as ever, and his words were as simple and peaceful as everyday, but Mr. Si Brown couldn't help but have a sour nose, but fortunately the darkness of the room covered up.

"Put away this gesture, I won't feel guilty if you get hurt. ”

"Sir, it's not right for you to do this, as the saying goes, if you don't learn well, your teacher is lazy. ”

"What the hell is the saying! It's your saying again. ”

The room resounded with the voices of an old and a young, annoyed and peaceful.
