Walnuts nourish the brain, red beans nourish blood, and the champion cake is made with walnuts and red beans as the main ingredients, plus some other refreshing foods. When candidates enter the examination room, they often bring something that is easy to eat and refreshing, because to prevent entrainment, this pastry must be cut into small pieces of one inch square when entering the examination room.

There are many vendors selling "champion cakes" near Gongyuan, and there is such a lively person in the crowd that no one will pay attention.

"Porphyry!"

Zhang Jun's legs were slightly numb, he was in a trance and full of chagrin, he didn't pay attention, and took a few steps forward, only then his eyes were dark, his legs were weak, and he fell to the ground all of a sudden. A brocade-clad lieutenant rudely tugged at his collar and shouted, "Pretend to be dead, get up!" As soon as he pulled the collar, Zhang Jun's neck leaned softly, and the brocade-clothed lieutenant looked at it, only to see Zhang Jun's eyes dilated, and blood stains were overflowing from his mouth and nose, and he couldn't help but exclaim: "Master Zongqi, Liu Zongqi, this person committed suicide by taking poison!" ”

Liu Yujue, who was walking behind, rushed to the front with an arrow step, and when he saw Zhang Jun's appearance, his pretty face suddenly turned blue.

Zhang Jun is not dead yet, but everyone can see that he is not far from death.

Zhang Jun, who was dying, vaguely imagined Xia Xun's cold face in his mind: "Don't think that what you do is to eat, drink, and listen to the news, you will be more dangerous than when you charge around Your Highness, on the battlefield, once you fail, you may not die, but in the heart of the enemy, once you fail, there is only one way to die."

I believe that each of you is loyal to His Royal Highness and is not afraid of death, but in this world, there are many things that are more terrible than death, and the eighteen criminal laws of Jinyiwei can definitely make a person who is not afraid of death at all confess everything in order to seek death. Therefore, I will not let any of our people have a chance to fall into the hands of Jinyiwei, including myself. If you don't want to go, take a step back now! No one backs off? Remember, then, that from this day onwards, your lives will be entrusted to me! ”

"It turns out that the boss has arranged someone else here!"

Zhang Jun wanted to laugh, but his muscles were already stiff, and what remained on his face was only a smile that looked like a smile, which looked very weird.

Liu Yujue straightened his waist and swept coldly towards the crowd, crowded, many people tiptoed to look here, and there were people crowding forward behind him, where could he still find the person who did it.

In Jinyiwei's prison, on a large iron bed stained with blood and rust, Zhang Jun's naked body was lying.

This large iron bed is generally used to "scrub" criminals, carrying a large copper kettle, pouring boiling water on the prisoners, and brushing down with an iron brush, so that blood clots and carrion will fall off piece by piece. Sometimes, you can also set up a charcoal fire under the bed, like roasting meat, and tie people to it until the smell of meat wafts out. If the tortured uncles want to have some fun, they can also tie the person up, and then draw the intestines, and use the hook to pull out the people's intestines from the **, and drag the old elders, and the people have not died at that time......

Right now, Zhang Jun is already a dead corpse, and there is no need to torture, and the only use of this multi-purpose iron bed now is to put the corpse aside.

Luo Kedi nodded on the black green place on the thigh of the dead corpse, and said: "Here, it is a poisonous needle that seals the throat with blood!" ”

He muttered: "This person, running the Four Treasures Store of his father's house alone, doesn't even have a ......, well, what can be found in the store?" ”

Liu Yujue on the side replied: "No, even the engraving has been destroyed by him, but the same paper and smoke have been found." Other than that, nothing useful was found. ”

The weak scholar who wanted to cry after being wronged may have been accustomed to life and death, facing the corpse on the iron bed, Liu Yujue's face has not changed.

Luo Kedi smiled coldly and said: "Alone, in the ...... of Jinling, it is difficult to endure loneliness alone, yes, Songzhumei, the people who live nearby, and the traders who often wander here check one by one, and ask this Zhang Jun where he usually goes to eat, and where else he goes, check!" As long as I find a little more clue, I can ask the emperor to let my Jinyiwei take over the case! ”

"Yes!"

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

"Jang Jun was discovered, but... He hasn't had a chance to give anything yet! ”

In the secret room of Jiang Mengxiong, the eldest brother of Confucius Temple, Xia Xun had a calm face and slowly paced.

"Is there any correspondence between Zhang Junping and you?"

Jiang Mengxiong shook his head: "Except for the last time I was summoned by the adults, we don't usually get along. ”

He thought for a moment, then hesitated, "But..."

"Huh?"

Xia Xun's eyes sharpened, staring at him like an arrow, Jiang Mengxiong shrank for a moment, and replied: "Zhang Jun ......, often ...... Flower boat ...... that often go to Xu Shiling"

"Yi Hongfang?"

Xia Xun narrowed his eyes: "Do you also go often?" ”

Jiang Mengxiong's face was a little red, but under Xia Xun's forced gaze, he didn't dare to hide it: "Yes, I'm ...... Zhang Jun and I do ...... a lot, but... However, when we usually go, we just pretend to be ordinary guests and do not have contact with Xu Shiling..."

Xia Xun said: "If you want to find a woman, do you have to go to Yihongfang?" And that Zhang Jun, he is a person who runs the four treasures of his father's house, and he runs it with a small capital, which is comparable to your big brother's wealth? It's actually on the Yi Red Boat! ”

Jiang Mengxiong blushed and said roughly: "We are not an auditor...... Fertilizer and water don't flow into outsiders' fields......", Xia Xun was extremely angry and shouted: "Bastard! ”

It was the first time for Jiang Mengxiong to see him so angry, and he couldn't help but be startled.

Xia Xun didn't care about getting angry with him anymore, and hurriedly said: "Your identity, it's okay to go in and out of Yihongfang, Zhang Jun's body..., I'm afraid Xu Shiling is not safe, I have to notify him to transfer immediately." Wang Guanyu...... Haven't been there, have you? ”

Jiang Mengxiong said: "Yes, Guanyu doesn't like women very much, except for the last time the adults summoned him, he has never gone to Yihongfang." ”

Speaking of this, he said a little unconvinced: "My lord, the imperial court may not be able to find out that Zhang Jun has been to Yihongfang, right?" After his pen and ink shop closes, where he can't go, who will pay attention... Liuxia Xun said angrily: "If people don't know, unless they don't do it!" This time, didn't they just rely on a piece of paper to find Zhang Jun? ”

Jiang Mengxiong said fiercely: "My lord, do you want to use human hands to kill some of them, lest they be unscrupulous." ”

Xia Xun said coldly: "You give me my part, our purpose is not to assassinate a few painless characters, I have something big to do, don't mess up." ”

"Yes!"

Jiang Mengxiong agreed, and when he saw Xia Xun walking towards the door, he hurriedly followed: "My lord is leaving?" If there is an emergency, where can I go to see my lord?

Xia Xun glanced back at him and said lightly: "If there is something, I will look for you." ”

Jiang Mengxiong's heart sank, and he nodded hurriedly, he didn't know Xia Xun's true identity in Jinling City at all. These days, Xia Xun is haunted, and every time he takes the initiative to find them, every time Qiao pretends to be a different identity and wears different clothes.

This time, Xia Xun pretended to be a gambler, and after arriving at this underground gambling house, he also gambled a few bets very seriously outside and lost them all. After a few dozen father's money in the bag, I found a chance to contact him. Jiang Mengxiong has always been a little unimpressed by Xia Xun's caution, but now, he finally realizes that there is no big mistake in being careful, and one mistake is for life. ※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

"Zhang Jun is exposed, you are also dangerous, leave quickly!"

Xu Shiling didn't know who sent him the news, but the secret guard above clearly indicated that it was an order from Boss Xia.

According to Xia Xun's pre-planned deployment, the evacuation and hiding of personnel have been arranged at the beginning of the establishment of various institutions. He could evacuate calmly, if Jinyiwei really found this place, he would have already flown into the shadows, and he didn't know where to go. But he didn't go, he didn't go right away, because he was reluctant.

He was originally just a small colonel in the Yanshan guard, he was alert and capable, and he dared to fight and kill, but overnight, he became a rich man, with fine clothes and food, beautiful women like clouds, such a day is every man's dream. He never thought that opening a flower ship here and listening to the news would be more dangerous than the rain of guns and arrows on the battlefield, and after getting the news, he immediately began to move.

First of all, he transferred all the assets that could be transferred, including the funds allocated by Xia Xun, and the private house he saved after operating the flower boat, and at the same time, he also had to arrange Weilian well.

Weilian is the girl he received when he took over the painting boat, beautiful, generous, gentle, empathetic A knife head licks blood, today I don't know what will happen tomorrow, suddenly met such a lovely woman, how can he not love it? He fell in love with this girl, and no longer wanted her to do some comedy career, living and living together, like a husband and wife, he had decided to marry her. He had to settle Miss Weilian properly so that he could leave with confidence.

Before leaving, he revealed his identity to Miss Weilian, and then took some gold and silver to her, accompanied her to find a house in the city to rent, and agreed with her on a date to meet, and then reluctantly kissed goodbye with tears. It was just after noon when he received the order, and when he hurriedly returned to the painting boat after all these arrangements, it was already the beginning of the lanterns and the sky was full of stars and moons.

Xu Shiling brought all the belongings he could take with him, and was about to leave according to the evacuation plan that had been arranged in advance. But as soon as he carried two burdens, four men in black boarded the ship. After figuring out the identity of the other party, Xu Shiling put down the knife in his hand and said with a sigh of relief: "I have already received an order from the adult, and I am about to leave, why did I send you to help again?" ”

He was a little curious, he thought that Xia Xun had only arranged a few of them in Jinling, but he had never seen these four people, and it seemed that these people were all directly ordered by Boss Xia. His own identity is already secret enough, it seems that the identities of these people are more secret than him, how many groups of people did Boss Xia arrange in Jinling?

The four men in black had a calm face, and one of them said calmly: "You should have left a long time ago, but you haven't left yet!" ”

Xu Shiling defended: "Did you just give up these belongings? There's still time, my lord is just worried that the brocade guard will come to the door, how can it be so fast..."

The man in black interrupted him coldly: "Military orders are like mountains, if you have any reason, you should immediately carry out military orders!" ”

Xu Shiling smiled and said, "Four brothers, this is not a battlefield......

"This is the battlefield! This is the military order! ”

Xu Shiling couldn't help but say angrily: "Okay, I'...... I'm going to ask for my guilt, so let's get out of here. You've boarded the ship so aggressively, I'm afraid you can't keep it a secret. ”

The man in black had a mocking smile in his eyes, and said coldly: "Cai, you are reluctant!" Woman, you can't bear it! In this world, there are so many things that you can't give up, what other secrets can you keep? ”

Xu Shiling changed color and said, "What do you mean?" ”

The man in black put his hand into his arms and said slowly: "On the battlefield, what will happen to those who disobey military orders?" ”

Xu Shiling took two big steps back abruptly, and only when his back was pressed against the bulkhead did he roar with a pale face: "What do you want to do?" I am His Highness's personal soldier, born and died for His Highness, there is no merit and hard work, where did you come from, you can't touch me! Take me to your lordship, I plead guilty to your lordship, I plead to your lordship, I ......"

"It's late!"

The black-clothed man at the head waved his hand coldly, and a cold light lit up in his palm.

Xu Shiling did not die without turning a blind eye, because the officers and soldiers came faster than he expected, so that the four men in black did not have time to determine his death, so they hurriedly jumped into the water to escape. Xu Shiling is a northerner, he doesn't know water, and he doesn't know where to find a group of people with such good water nature, he crouched on the bow of the boat, watching them jump into the water, like a fish, and disappeared in an instant.

When he was dying, Xu Shiling saw many pairs of official boots walking around him, and only one pair of them was a woman's foot. A pair of very slender and beautiful feet. He had played under the lamp countless times, and how could he not recognize that it was Miss Weilian's feet. Take off your shoes and socks, and you will see that the flesh and bones are even, and the fingers are coated with Danqian, which is crystal clear, like a pair of beautiful feet like jade shoots, which is ecstatic.

He could still hear Weilian's voice, which was still sweet, as if the gentle whisper of a spring breeze in his ears when love lingered, but what she said at the moment was: "Official, it's him, he's Yan Yi's spy!" ”

"On the battlefield, you are all heroes and heroes who are not afraid of death, here, do you think it is just a song and dance? Wrong! Here, it's more brutal than the battlefield! Those who can't make it into a tool will be an outcast! ”

This is a sentence from Xia Xun that every Flying Dragon spy lurking in Jinling received after Xu Shiling's death.

Roque entered the palace with great ambition.

On the shore of Mochou Lake, he was put aside.

Today, he pulled another game back.

Who wins and who loses?

He believes that Xia Xun will still make a move!
