Chapter 43
When the lights are on, Yangzhou official post.
Liu Xiangzuo sent to go to the prison department to pass the word, and then ran to the left-behind division to pick up objects, when she came back this summer, she had missed the meal, she went to the stove and turned out two pieces of cold buns and a few pickles, and went back to the house to eat tea and water, which was a meal. Then she turned on the oil lamp, took out the picture she had drawn in the hospital today, spread it on the table, and looked at it in a daze......
This trace, she remembered, was three or four inches deep, next to a peach tree.
The torture instrument should be leaning back against the peach tree, she knocked her head hard, and she should have checked to see if there were any traces left on the bark at that time, why did she ignore it!
By the way, on that boat, the man was also leaning back to the side of the boat.
This torture device ejects spikes from the body, and there must be recoil, so something needs to be held against it.
Her fingers unconsciously drew circles on the paper, thinking about the appearance of the dead woman, who had killed them? Why did they put them in the peach blossom forest? Was the boat an accident?
If none of this is a coincidence, then ...... Someone did it on purpose in the shadows, who could it be? Why do you want her to see this "love parting"? What does he want to do?
"Knock knock!"
There was a sudden knock on the door, and she was so shocked that her whole body trembled, and after taking a deep breath, she asked in a deep voice, "Who?" ”
Outside was Gao Qing's voice: "Lord Lu has an order, come out quickly!" ”
I thought that he was in the gentle township, and he could steal half a day of leisure, but this summer sighed secretly, put away the paper, got up and opened the door, only to find that in addition to Gao Qing, Lu Yi was also there.
"You ......" Lu Yi only glanced at her and realized that her face was wrong, "What's the matter?" ”
"It's fine." Jin Xia rubbed his hands, rubbed his face violently, and regained his spirits and said, "If you have something to do, just tell me." ”
Lu Yishen glanced at her, as if he wanted to ask, but in the end he didn't ask anything, only said lightly: "You go with me to bring Sha Xiuzhu up." Gao Qing, you call two more people to escort them together. ”
Why do you suddenly want to mention Sha Xiuzhu?!
This summer was stunned, and quickly covered his emotions, only making his face expressionless.
In order to avoid Lu Yi being suspicious of himself, he didn't dare to ask where he was going to take Sha Xiuzhu along the way, until Lu Yi took Sha Xiuzhu on a boat that had been prepared a long time ago.
"My lord, where are we going?" It was getting dark, and she had to ask.
"Go to the ferry where the Wu'an gang gathered last time, I heard that they have a gang meeting there tonight." Lu Yi looked at her meaningfully, "The person who fought with me on the boat last time was very good, and I suspect that he is hiding in the Wu'an Gang, what do you think?" ”
"I think...... Not only the Wu'an Gang, but also the Salt Gang and the Cao Gang are all possible. ”
This summer answered cautiously.
"You're quite right." He said.
How could he talk like that, and the sun came out in the west? Summer glanced at him quizzically, who was only half-leaning against the side of the ship. Tonight, he wore a black gauze scarf, a collared green robe, his feet were trimmed with cloud shoes, and the wide sleeves of his robe hung down on the side of the ship......
It was only at this time that this summer realized that he was not going to do anything with someone tonight, but he would definitely make a big disturbance when he broke into the Wu'an Gang like this. Thinking of the appearance of him and Shangguan Xi upstairs, she secretly speculated, could it be that he had a tacit understanding with Shangguan Xi?
But the mind of this experienced adult really can't be guessed with common sense, what if he and Shangguan Xi are just playing on the spot, and they won't care about it at all?
This summer, he looked at Sha Xiuzhu on the other side of the boat, he was able to limp on his own, and it seemed that his leg injury had healed most of the time. If Sha Xiuzhu sees Xie Xiao later...... She couldn't help but glance at Lu Yi again, and she couldn't help but feel uneasy in her heart.
The moonlight was like frost, sparkling waves, and with the sound of gurgling water, the ferry port could already be seen this summer, with the lights dim, and there was a faint noise, mixed with the sound of fists, laughter and scolding, and so on.
If there was really a gathering of the gangs, Shangguan Xi told him?
When she looked at Lu Yi again, she was bumping into his eyes - "Are you nervous?" He asked.
"Nope." She pretended to be stupid.
"Then why do you keep sneaking at me?" He asked bluntly, and even Gao Qing next to him, along with the other two brocade guards, also turned their heads to look at this summer.
This summer swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and could only say: "Because of the humble position, I feel, I feel...... The adults are outstanding, so they can't help but look at them twice. ”
The other Jinyi guards couldn't hold back their laughter when they heard this, and even Lu Yi smiled rarely: "Did you only find out now?" ”
"Maybe it's because of the moonlight......"
This summer replied, but suddenly remembered the men and women in the painting boat under the moonlight that night, and his face changed.
Lu Yi didn't ignore the changes on her face, and was about to ask, when the hull of the ship shook and it had already docked.
"Escort Sha Xiuzhu out and let him go inside to recognize people!" He coldly ordered Gao Qing.
Gao Qing received the order, and together with the other two brocade guards, he took the shackled Shaxiu bamboo frame out of the cabin and boarded the ferry. Lu Yi then went ashore, and was about to follow this summer, but saw him stop and turn around.
"What did you just come up with?"
"I, I...... Shall I report to you later? ”
Lu Yi stared at her firmly, finally didn't insist, and nodded.
The number of Wu'an gangs gathered here was twice as large as expected this summer, and the candles were hanging high in several restaurants at the ferry, full of people.
I hope Xie Xiao is not here, and he said secretly this summer.
That day, Sha Xiuzhu desperately dragged Lu Yi in order to let Xie Xiao get out, presumably the possibility of him identifying Xie Xiao today is very small. But according to Xie Xiao's temperament, I am afraid that I can't hold back when I see Sha Xiuzhu, even if I don't do it, the possibility of showing my feet in front of Lu Yi is also very great.
Brother, don't come here at this time to join in the fun! It's better to stay by the old man's side honestly.
Her eyes quickly swept around her, for fear of finding Xie Xiao's burly and thick figure.
When they escorted Sha Xiuzhu into the nearest restaurant, the original noise and excitement seemed to cool down in an instant, and those who were still boxing, drinking, and eating meat all stopped their movements, turned their heads, and stared at the dazzling brocade guards with unkind eyes......
Sha Xiuzhu, who was ragged and shackled, aroused their instinctive hostility towards the government even more.
"What advice does this official have?" A tall and thin middle-aged man stood up and asked.
Lu Yi said lightly: "A while ago, this guy and a group of thieves robbed General Qiu for his mother's birthday, and that gang of thieves is quite watery, so I brought him to recognize him." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar.
Lu Yi's move clearly suspected that the Wu'an Gang was harboring thieves, and he was not a local official in Yangzhou, so it could be said that he had no friendship with the Wu'an Gang.
The tall and thin middle-aged man had a cold face, and then said: "What does the official mean, suspect that the thief is one of my gang?" ”
Before Lu Yi could answer, he heard footsteps behind him this summer, followed by Shangguan Xi's calm but authoritative voice: "Uncle Dong, I'll deal with this matter." ”
"Hall Master." The tall and thin middle-aged man saluted her and stepped aside.
Shangguan Xi crossed this summer and the others, and walked until he was in front of Lu Yi, before he suddenly turned around and raised his head slightly to face him: "Lu Shi, you brought a prisoner to my help, do you have any advice?" ”
"Just take him out to breathe, and by the way, see if you can find his accomplice's thieves." Lu Yi wrote lightly, "It's just a trivial matter, please don't misunderstand the master of the Shangguan Hall." ”
"It's hard not to misunderstand someone like you." Shangguan Xi gently and softly.
This summer was a little suspicious of her ears, whether she heard a little resentment in Shangguan Xi's tone rather than dissatisfaction, and when she approached her, she was sure, because she heard Lu Yi's voice with a smile.
"If there is any offense, I will definitely come to the door another day to apologize, but for now, ......," he said in a negotiating tone, "can I let my brother take care of the business in advance?" ”
Shangguan Xi pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, we are reckless and rough people, but you have always respected me, and I let you have a foot." Since today's adults are kind to talk about each other, we can't refute your face. Uncle Dong, you accompany these officials for a few turns. ”
"Hallmaster, this ......"
"If there are really thieves hiding in the gang, not to mention that the law of the country is intolerable, our gang will not tolerate him. However, what if you can't find a thief? She raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Lu Yi.
"Yan Yuan is already offended today, if so, let the lord of Shangguan Hall leave. If you want to punish me with one jar, I will not dare to drink only three cups. Lu Yi said with a smile.
"That's true."
Shangguan Xi pursed his lips and smiled, and motioned for Uncle Dong to take Jinyi Wei away.
At that moment, Gao Qing and the other Jinyi guards were holding Sha Xiuzhu, looking at each restaurant one by one, and Shangguan Xi accompanied Lu Yi to stand outside.
This summer, I peeked at Shangguan Xi's expression several times, but I couldn't see the clue, and I was only secretly surprised in my heart.
After a while, Gao Qing came back with Sha Xiuzhu and said to Lu Yiyu: "Lord Qiyu, this guy lowered his head and lowered his eyes, he didn't even raise his eyelids, and he didn't recognize anyone. ”
Lu Yi looked at Sha Xiuzhu coldly: "That's it, that's it, let's take him back." ”
Everyone wanted to leave, but Shangguan Xi stretched out his arm to stop Lu Yi, and said with a smile: "My lord, what you just said still counts?" ”
"Nature counts."
Lu Yi stopped and said with a smile.
"Well, if you don't dislike me for having bad wine and coarse food here, how about staying and eating a jar?"
Hearing this, Lu Yi lowered his head and hesitated for a moment, then nodded and smiled: "Since the Shangguan Hall Master has opened his mouth, then I might as well be respectful...... A few of you, if you take Sha Xiuzhu back to prison, you don't have to wait for me. ”
"My lord......" Gao Qing didn't seem to be at ease, and his expression hesitated.
"It's okay."
Lu Yi waved his hand and told them to get on the boat quickly, and he and Shangguan Xi stepped into the restaurant together.
This summer, I saw it in my eyes, and secretly sighed that the heroes from ancient times were sad to pass the beauty pass, which is really a wise saying. Lu Yi is such a cold and arrogant person, and when he encounters a heroic woman like Sister Shangguan, he has to turn into a finger twister.
The moonlight is like frost, and the vast lake is a vast silver white.
"Girl, it's windy outside, let's come in, take care of the cold." The round-faced maid who was waiting persuaded her.
Zhai Lanye held on to the hatch and looked into the distance, as if she had not heard the maid's words. The night breeze with moisture gently stirred her skirt, the color was like the moon, fluttering gorgeous, and her posture had an indescribable grace.
"Girl, there are three or four miles of waterway, and it will take a while, so let's come in and wait." The maid continued to persuade.
"It's okay, I've been sitting at home for a long time, so I'll stand a little bit."
Zhai Lanye said softly, her eyes still looking at the lake, and there was joy on her face that could not be hidden.
The maid had no choice but to stop persuading, went into the cabin to get a cloak, and put it on for her.
The boat moved forward slowly, and after about half an hour, a large night ship could be seen quietly parked not far from the shallows, and the lights were faintly visible......
It's been three years, and I'm finally seeing him again!
Her hand holding the handkerchief pressed tightly to her heart, and her heart was beating so fast that she could hardly stand it.
"Girl, get on the boat from this side."
The maid came to help her, and she hesitated for a moment, then carefully stepped onto the erected pedals and boarded the night ship.
