Because of her achievements as a child, her name this summer has become a little louder, and in the old days, when the neighbors mentioned her, they often used Yaksha, big insects and other things as suffixes. She was very uncomfortable at first hearing, and then she happened to read an idle book, in which the Yaksha insect was a star descending from the earth, and everyone was afraid of it, and then went up to the mountain to be a hero, drinking wine and eating meat in a big bowl, she was quite fascinated by this, and regarded it as a good name for the neighborhood.

After she became a fast catcher, because she was a member of the official family, this reputation gradually faded in the mouths of the neighbors, and the Yuan family had a rather fierce daughter, but every family knew about it, not to mention the matchmaker. Yuan Chen couldn't restrain his daughter, seeing that she was getting older day by day, and no one came to the door to propose, he was very melancholy. She gritted her teeth and thought fiercely: Wait for me to prepare a thick dowry, don't worry if you don't come to the door to beg me!

In order to save a dowry, Yuan Chen's family sells tofu during the day and dried tofu at night, which is very hard. This summer is burdened by fame, as a heavy money-loser, there is no part to say in this matter, so I have to catch the thief desperately with my tail between my legs, which is also very difficult.

At the moment, I heard that my mother actually fell in love with the third child of Mr. Yi's family, and my first reaction this summer was how much dowry my mother had saved, which could make the Yi family tempted. Thinking about it again, the idea of her mother is really once and for all: if she marries into the Yi family, as a brother-in-law, Yuan Yi's private school fees in the next few years can be saved, and the ice and winter charcoal in the summer can be waived, which is indeed a large expense.

These expenses are saved, and the dowry can be repaid.

Tapping his forehead vigorously, he looked at the crackling and burning firewood in the stove irritably, and stuffed another handful into it.

When the lights are on, the Jinshui River flows slowly, reflecting countless bright lights on both sides.

If someone on the shore throws money down, he immediately sings a promise with a smile and climbs onto the towering bamboo pole on the boat, jumps down into the water, and has flowers in the air, or turns around or somersaults before entering the water.

The restaurants on the shore are next to each other, and the stalls and small burdens on the bridge on the street are slipped.

This summer, leaning crookedly next to the small stone lion on the bridge railing, boredly guarding the small stall of braised tofu, listening to the sound of silk and bamboo and the noise of people from the restaurant next to him, his eyes fell on the river. She had come to help tonight, but her mother probably suffered some wind last night, and her heart was bored, and her brain had been aching faintly. This summer persuaded her to go home to rest, and Yuan Chen didn't worry about her taking care of the stall, this summer had to swear and promise to honestly guard the stall and never do much, Yuan Chen repeatedly told her several times, before he went back to rest step by step.

"Two strings of dried tofu and chili oil!" A laughing voice said.

This summer came back to his senses, looked up and saw Yang Yue, and said strangely: "How do you know that I am here?" ”

"I just sent two pickled fish to your house, and I met your mother, and by the way, I gave her your business trip allowance, and she said that you are guarding the stall here." Yang Yue didn't see it, he fished out a bunch of dried tofu by himself and poured it with chili oil, "My father said that we would go to the Ministry of War with him early tomorrow morning." ”

"Oh." This summer responded casually, "The secretary office lost something again?" ”

"The devil knows the way." Yang Yue followed her gaze to the surface of the river and asked curiously, "What are you looking at?" ”

"Did you see that diving juggler?" Nunu mouth this summer.

As she spoke, the shirtless man leaped down from the pole with a beautiful backflip, hugged his knees and did three somersaults in a row, and plunged into the water...... It was the cold of spring, although the river surface was not frozen, the river water was cold and biting, Yang Yue couldn't help but shrink his neck, and shivered for the man.

"I sold three strings of dried tofu, and he danced eight times." This summer looked at the shirtless man who climbed onto the boat with infinite envy, "He is worth a month's salary for us in one night, what do you say we should catch quickly." ”

"Aren't you cold?"

"Do you think silver is cold?"

This summer looked down at a pile of mountain-like braised dried tofu, and he didn't know when it would be sold out, and sighed.

"Lack of silver again?" Yang Yue knows her very well.

Before he could answer this summer, someone came in front of the stall -

"I want four strings of dried tofu, two skewers of spicy sauce, and two skewers of plum powder, the more sour, the better, my lady wants to eat something sour now." The doting tone made people get goosebumps all over their bodies, it was Sun Jixing, the eldest of the Sun family who accompanied his wife to visit the night market.

Although he was very reluctant to raise his eyes, for the sake of collecting money, he still quickly got the dried tofu and handed it over, and said expressionlessly: "Four copper plates, Xie Lu Xie." ”

Sun Jixing paid. Sun took the braised bean curd and looked at her with a wink: "Hey, this summer, why are you looking at the stall?" Don't you have to catch thieves? ”

“…… Ahem...... It's a special mission. This summer lowered his voice and leaned over, "Recently, the government is deploying a big operation, and you don't have to walk around the streets less, especially if you are pregnant, it is even worse to bump into it." ”

Sun Jixing became nervous when he heard this: "Really?!" ”

Jinxia motioned for them to look at Yang Yue next to him, and asked rhetorically, "Otherwise, you think the two of us are here...... Is it really to sell dried tofu? ”

Sun Jixing hurriedly carried his lady home, Yang Yue watched their backs disappear into the crowd, and then said in surprise to Jinxia: "It's so decent, what are you doing to scare them?" ”

"Their loving couple walked around in front of my mother, and if my mother went back, she would have to complain about my car, and I couldn't talk back, I could really suffocate my life to death."

She pinched her eyebrows in annoyance, and suddenly heard a commotion in the crowd on the left, and was about to stretch out her head to look, when she saw a man wearing a fluttering scarf and a three-inlaid Taoist robe falling over the pedestrians and falling over the pedestrians, and was falling on her dried tofu stall impartially.

"Hey! You ......"

Seeing that he was still holding a pair of gold cooked copper bells and pestles in his hand, it was obviously a fortune teller walking the street, and he reached out to pull her this summer, but the fortune teller waved his backhand, revealing a long dagger with a shiny snow at the bottom of his sleeve, and the blue light was cold, and he knew that the blade was smeared with poison at a glance.

"Be careful!" Yang Yue was shocked and rushed forward.

This life changed very suddenly, Rao was quick to react this summer, turned sideways in time, and the dagger slashed off half of her sleeve.

Yang Yue had already made a move, but someone came first, only to see a green shadow passing by, and the flying leg in the air directly kicked the fortune teller to vomit blood, and he could only hold on to the ground and struggle.

"Say! Where do you hide the secret report? ”

The person who came was dressed in a bamboo green gauze and gold repair robe, with a natural color belt, very neat, and stepped on the wrist of the fortune teller holding a dagger, and his tone was so cold that it seemed to ooze a trace of cold.

“…… I don't know what to do! The fortune teller broke out in a cold sweat in pain.

This man in green shirt is recognized this summer.

Today, there are only two people left who are high and powerful, and there are only two people left. One is Yan Song, the first assistant of the cabinet, who formed a party in the DPRK and China for personal gain, needless to say. There is another person, Lu Bing, the supreme commander of Jinyiwei, he and Sejong are good buddies who grew up together, and they once risked their lives to rush into the fire to save Sejong. The relationship between him and Sejong is not a word of iron, two words of porcelain, and three words. Strictly speaking, Lu Bing is still a good official, although he excludes dissidents and monopolizes power, but at least he has fulfilled his duties and indeed rehabilitated many unjust cases in the edict prison, but everyone knows that he is good friends with Yan Song.

The demeanor of the supreme commander of Jinyiwei has been experienced this summer, Lu Bingqi's sword eyebrows, starry eyes, long beard, fluttering device, Yu Xuanang, his eyes are flowing, not angry but mighty, very intimidating.

And the green-shirted man in front of him this summer is Lu Bing's son, Lu Yi. Lu Bing was born as a martial artist, and it is said that Lu Yi is strong in martial arts, not under his father, and is one of the best masters in Jinyiwei.

In her opinion, in terms of appearance, Lu Yi should be like his mother, not powerful enough but more than handsome, but those eyes are similar to his father, his expression is not shocked, and he is not commensurate with his age, and he is a little more cold.

Lu Yi's feet spun slightly, adding a little strength, and this summer he felt that he could even hear the bones of the fortune teller's wrist crackling.

"I ...... It's true...... I don't know what to do! The fortune teller's voice was terrible.

This fortune teller is carrying a poisonous dagger, naturally he is not a good kind, although this summer Zhilu Dao Jinyi Wei has always been heavy-handed, but he forced a confession like this, she still couldn't help it, stepped forward and said: "I don't know what this fortune teller has done?" Even if it is to be tried, it should be ......"

She was only halfway through her words, Lu Yi didn't even raise her eyelids, her clothes swayed, revealing the brocade clothes tied around her waist, and said coldly: "The government is handling the case, and the idle people are out of the way!" ”

As soon as they saw that it was Jinyiwei, the people around them were so curious that they didn't dare to look any further, and quickly dispersed quietly and silently. Xinfeng Qiaotou, which was originally lively and lively, soon became deserted.

In the meantime, four more people arrived, all of them were all blue and blue, covered with armor and leather with soapy leather boots, which were the outfits of thousands of Jinyi guards. The four of them went to Lu Yi and respectfully reported: "Lord Lu, Cao Ge is dead. ”

When I heard Cao Ge's words this summer, I already understood something, and I couldn't help but sigh secretly: But after half a day's work, Cao Ge really didn't suffer torture and was tossed to death.

After more than two years of arrest, I have been restrained a lot this summer, and I have written many life mottos for myself, such as: A good man does not suffer immediate losses; The big husband can bend and stretch; Those who know the times are Junjie and so on. gave himself a life plan, and naturally ran towards the road of Junjie. At the moment, although she was not used to the lofty virtue of Jinyiwei, the six doors did not have the right to interfere in Jinyiwei's case, and she also wanted to leave, but her eyes fell on the tofu scum on the ground, and then she thought of her mother's face, and the adage of "people die for money, birds die for food" came out in time.

She tried her best to make her voice a little crying, and it was best to have a pitiful effect: "Official, you can't smash my stall when you handle the case!" ”

No one answered, maybe no one heard at all.

Lu Yi frowned unbearably, pointed to the fortune teller and said, "Bring it back to the Imperial Prison!" ”

The fortune teller knew the horror of the edict, his face changed miserably, and he suddenly got up and struggled violently, not to escape, but to rub himself and pounce on the dagger that smeared the poison......

The poison was very domineering, but in the blink of an eye, the fortune teller spat black blood from his mouth and whimpered with his life.

Lu Yi frowned, and ordered concisely: "Search your body." ”

The four brocade guards searched the fortune teller's body carefully, and she and Yang Yue watched coldly. Watch them go from head to toe, untie the corpse's bun, to the intimate clothing, and even the soles of their shoes are cut open to prevent them from being hidden.

"It's been done quite finely." Yang Yue looked at it and whispered towards this summer.

This summer was dismissive of this: "What's this, practice makes perfect, at most it is the level of our yamen, a bunch of rough people." ”

Lu Yi turned his back to the two of them, and he didn't know if he heard it, he tilted his head slightly, and his afterglow was as cold as ice, which made Yang Yue, who was about to speak, shut up.

"Lord Lu, no!" After the search, thousands of households said to Lu Yiyu.

"Guess what they're looking for?" Out of the instinct of catching fast, Yang Yue was very curious, and asked this summer in a low voice.

Before, Yang Yue said that the Department of Military Affairs had lost something, and Cao Ge was from the Ministry of War, and he had already vaguely guessed it in his heart this summer, but it was inconvenient to say it, so he said: "Needless to say, it must be a major case related to national affairs." ”

Lu Yi turned his head sideways again, although he didn't speak, the meaning of the cold light in his eyes was obvious: Shut up!

Now for this summer, the imminent thing is not a military matter, but the smashed tofu stall in front of her, so she spoke again, her tone was sincere and simple: "Official, my tofu is actually not expensive, you can give two taels of silver is enough." ”

At the same time, one of the thousands of households said to Lu Yi with a worried face: "Both of them are dead, and they can't find the map, so the governor ...... there."

"Ahem," this summer had no choice but to raise his voice in the back: "A few officials, you should at least lose some silver!" ”

Her voice is crisp and bright, it's hard to ignore, and now, not only Lu Yi, but even all the brocade guards have seen it.

"Two taels of silver is enough." This summer laughed with them and motioned them to look at the braised bean curd crumbs in one place.

"Look for death, you! Don't get out of here! ”

A thousand evil shapes shouted at her.

On the issue of silver, this summer has always been very resilient, and he will not move an inch: "I will leave if I lose the silver, otherwise I will not be able to explain to my mother." ”

"You ......"

Thousands of households forced forward to fight, but were stopped by Lu Yi's annoying wave of his hand.

"Give her the money and let them go!" At the moment of the big event, Lu Yi obviously doesn't want to cause more trouble, let alone see irrelevant idlers and so on.

Thousands of households did not dare to disobey his order, so they had to take out the money bag and throw away two taels of silver for this summer.

This summer happily put away the silver, and Yang Yue prepared to leave, after walking a few steps, he stopped his steps and looked back at Lu Yi, and reminded in a good mood: "I don't know what the officials of Lu Dao are looking for, but there are traces of moss on his sleeves, and his shoes are half wet, I guess he has just been to places very close to the river before, such as bridges and caves." ”

Lu Yi stared at her, then squatted down on one knee to check, and sure enough, there were traces of moss on the left and right sleeves of the fortune teller.

"It was a bit high, so he put his feet up, leaned on the wall with his left hand, and reached with his right hand." "If I'm not mistaken, there's moss in the nail on his left hand. ”

Lu Yi picked up the corpse's left hand and examined it carefully, and sure enough, he found a few stars of green between his middle fingers, thoughtful.

Seeing that he had understood, he turned around and left, carrying two taels of silver on his body, and his steps were much lighter than usual.

"I have long said that they are a group of rough people, so I know that they are fighting and killing, and they can't be on the stage." She was very disdainful of Jinyiwei's style, and said to Yang Yue as she walked. "If they are more capable, we won't have to go to the military department tomorrow morning."

"Do you know what to do?"

"Everyone is dead, things are found, and what is the matter with us." Thinking about it this summer, I felt a little sorry, "I knew that Cao Ge was collaborating with the enemy, and the reward should be higher!" ”

Half an hour later, the Jizhou defense map wrapped in an oilcloth was found in a bridge pier recess. The fortune teller's real name is Song Yongwen, and he is actually a double-sided meticulous work hidden in the capital, specializing in collecting intelligence and then selling it at a high price. Cao Ge offended his boss, was transferred out of the capital, and in revenge, he stole the defense map and sold it to Song Yongwen, and then fled with the Qiqiu clan.

The case was concluded, and Jin Yiwei commanded Lu Bing to enter the palace late at night, and Sejong's remaining anger did not subside, and he ordered to remove the military department Shangshu, the left attendant of the military department, and the right attendant of the military department for one year.
