Knock - Knock -

The next day, the morning bell rang throughout Chang'an, and the sound of reading rang in the various schools of Guozijian as always.

Song Yufu's eyes were slightly red, and she walked back and forth in Wenqu Garden with books, reading the classics that had been ripe, and the princes and nobles in the school house were still not full, most of them were dozing off, and there were very few students who really read aloud.

Her father's big sacrifice wine pine and cypress has long been so angry by this group of rotten trees that she can't come to lectures, and Rao is her graceful temper, and she is gradually helpless. I haven't been able to sleep well in the past few days, and occasionally fatigue is up, and I can only pinch my leg to keep me awake.

Thinking of what happened in the past few days, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in her heart.

When I went to the Bell and Drum Tower that night, I wanted to talk to Xu Shizi about the rules of scholars, but it turned out to be good, and I hung her on the Bell and Drum Tower so scared that she didn't come back to her senses for a few days.

was forced to copy "Xueji", she finished writing a whole article seriously and silently on the cold bell and drum tower, and Xu Shizi, who was sitting next to him drinking, opened his mouth:

"The handwriting is wrong, copy my handwriting and rewrite it."

Isn't that bullying?

She threw down her pen in anger, and it was hung on the bell and drum tower......

Song Yufu's face was stained with a hint of shame.

Later, when she wrote about Kuaizi, her wrist was sore, and Xu Shizi was willing to let her go, thinking that she would hide far away, and let Xu Shizi write the rest by himself, but Xu Shizi came to the sentence again:

"I'll be on time tomorrow night, otherwise the whole country will know about you copying the book for me."

Alas......

She was born in a scholarly family, and her parents and brothers are all famous Confucians, how can she spread this kind of thing, she can only go to the bell and drum tower on time at dusk, and it is the middle of the night to write.

After seven days, she was sleepy, but Xu Shizi sat next to her and drank wine for seven days, and she felt aggrieved and panicked when she thought about it......

Song Yufu was thinking wildly, and before she knew it, the whispers of several princes and princes suddenly came into her ears:

"Xiao Ting, why don't you stare behind Miss Song? The last time I saw it......"

Song Yufu suddenly came back to her senses, frowning slightly, she was the son of the prince, she was not good at reprimanding, and she wanted to go out quietly. Just as he took a step, he heard Xiao Ting's voice:

"Don't talk nonsense, gentlemen don't deceive the dark room."

"Cut~ Do you still know that 'gentlemen do not deceive the dark room'? You're almost out last time, and if it weren't for Xu Buling to wake you up, you might have done something......"

"What kind of filthy person could I Xiao Ting be......"

"Come on, there's no good thing here, who are you pretending to be a gentleman to? Xu Buling didn't come today, if you want to see the generous point, it's ......"

"That drunken maniac, what should I do if I come back suddenly......"

"Yo~ It turns out that Xiao Gongzi is afraid of this ......"

"Phew—...... to die"

"Hahaha......"

Song Yufu heard these conversations and froze in place with the poetry book.

Xu Shizi...... Is it because of Xiao Ting's rude gaze that he beat Xiao Ting?

Thinking of this, Song Yufu suddenly realized! It turns out that Xu Shizi is not a high-flying man, but a gentleman who does not value his name!

remembered that night and ran to reprimand Xu Shizi for hurting people for no reason......

Song Yufu walked back and forth a few times, and her eyes slowly showed a little shame......

------

The warm winter sun is sprinkled on the Suzaku Street, the traffic on both sides of the street is busy, the temples and Taoist halls beside the street are full of incense, from time to time there are official ladies and noblewomen driving to and fro in sedan chairs, and there is no lack of long-distance business travelers to watch the scenery everywhere, and they look like a prosperous world.

Xu Buling drove the horse through Suzaku Street and came to the outside of Yongning Fang, and the bell and drum sounded on time above the watchtower.

Three quarters of an hour, not a bad minute.

"Xu Gongzi!"

The horses stopped, and Zhu Manzhi ran over to salute with joy, holding a small purse in his hand, and said with a smile:

"Yesterday, the three Xiaoxiao were habitual offenders, and they had injured many brothers, and the yamen awarded us thirty taels of silver, and this credit belongs to the son, all of which belong to you."

Xu Buling turned over and dismounted, did not reach out to pick it up, led the horse to the street, and looked at it a few times:

"What's the job?"

Zhu Manzhi came to his senses when he heard this, and he took out the 'impermanence book' from his arms, flipped through a few pages, and pointed to a few lines of handwriting on it:

"With the help of Gongzi Xu, I specially picked a few difficult jobs, and no one in the entire Dizi camp was willing to take them, and the reward was high......"

"Okay, let's go."

"Did Gongzi Xu eat in the morning?"

“……”

A moment later, two bowls of mutton in a basin of mutton were placed on the table at the roadside stall in the bazaar, steaming hot and fragrant.

Zhu Manzhi sat at the small table with chopsticks and said very proudly:

"I'm in for a treat, double lamb, it's not enough to add more."

Xu Buling shook his head and chuckled, put the long sword on the table, and began to feast.

Zhu Manzhi lowered his head and took a sip of soup, his eyes kept looking at Xu Buling on the opposite side, maybe he was a little nervous, he glanced left and right, his eyes were on the long sword on the table, and he smiled and had nothing to say:

"Xu Gongzi, what's the name of your sword?"

"Shine on the gall."

"Shine on the gall...... I think I've heard it somewhere...... My dad also used a sword and taught me, but unfortunately my dad didn't use it well, so I only knew one move......"

"yes......"

Muttering mutter......

As the sun rises, the streets gradually become bustling.

Two empty big bowls were placed on the small table, Zhu Manzhi got up and patted his stomach, a layer of fragrant sweat floated on his forehead, he raised his hand to wipe it, and saw Xu Buling take the wine jug from the carriage and pour it, and chuckled:

"Xu Shizi, drinking in the morning hurts your body."

"Don't drink to death."

"Oh...... Xu Shizi is still a master who loves to drink, I also like to drink, and I like the broken jade burning of the Sun family shop in Daye Fang the most, but it is ...... Liela"

Xu Buling took the reins and turned into the alley around the crowded street, and turned his head a little helplessly:

"Zhu girl, you talk a little too much."

"Really? I...... Then I won't speak......"

"Get down to business."

"Oh...... There is a 'Zheng Sandao' in the West Market, which is the head snake in the West Market, and I heard that there are two gambling houses that are his, but unfortunately there are no clues, and the ears and eyes are very bright, and the people run away as soon as they go......"

--------

"Sugar gourd—"

"Buy coal—"

"You're—"

Noisy and noisy, near the watchtower in the west of Chang'an City, a house is built here, the merchants and street vendors in the market often have a pastime here, and the gambling houses and hook columns are one after another.

In a courtyard, the master counted the money collected last night, Zheng Sandao sat at the table, wiped the knife in his hand with a white cloth, the knife body was covered with traces of time, and he followed him for many years.

The gambling house next door was noisy, and from time to time, a man who had lost even his pants was thrown out, scolding and spitting away.

"A bunch of gambling dogs, if you can win money, Lao Tzu will not be able to drink the northwest wind......"

Zheng Sandao scolded, wiped the knife for a while, and suddenly Xiao Si ran into the courtyard: "Boss, a wolf guard has entered the West Market and is coming this way." ”

"One?"

"There is also a rich man, the price of the horse is very expensive, it looks like he didn't come to us to fight the autumn breeze, do you want to avoid it first?"

"Don't avoid it."

As he spoke, a cold voice sounded from the courtyard door.

Zheng Sandao's face changed suddenly, he stood up and held the hilt of the knife to look at the courtyard gate, but saw a tall man dressed in white, striding in with a long sword in his hand.

There was also a panting female wolf guard behind her, her chest trembling and following behind.

Seeing this, the thugs in the courtyard surrounded him with sticks.

Zheng Sandao got up and walked down the steps, looked at it a few times like a tiger's eyes, and first held the big knife upside down:

"Childe came to the door rashly, is there something important?"

Xu Buling's footsteps did not stop, and his right hand grasped the hilt of the sword.

"Beware!"

In the courtyard, the pan is fried in an instant, and the little minions with sticks are like facing the enemy.

Zheng Sandao stood in front of him with a knife in both hands, his robe swayed, and his momentum climbed and the fierce light skyrocketed:

"Brother, don't toast and don't eat and drink......"

Before the words fell, I heard a soft sound of 'choking', the sharp blade came out of the sheath, and the cold light flashed.

Bell –

Zheng Sandao hurriedly raised his knife to block, never thinking that the big knife in his hand was directly cut into two sections.

Seeing this scene, Zheng Sandao was horrified and retreated hurriedly, but he couldn't avoid the sword blade that stabbed his throat.

At this moment of life and death, Zhu Manzhi flew out and hugged Xu Buling's arm:

"Keep people under the sword!"

Xu Buling's figure froze, the sword pointed at Zheng Sandao's throat, looked at the arm that fell between the two soft lumps, and frowned slightly: "Zhu girl, what do you mean?" ”

Zhu Manzhi was panting, holding Xu Buling's arm, his face was bitter: "Xu Gongzi, he is not guilty to death, what are you doing directly to kill people?" ”

"That's right!"

Zheng Sandao escaped death with no face, sat on the ground with his buttocks, and said in a trembling voice:

"I stole the concubine of the king's foreign family, and the murderer broke the law......"

“……？”

Xu Buling was speechless, took a breath, put away his long sword and turned to leave.

Zhu Manzhi suddenly panicked, dragged Zheng Sandao up, caught up with Xu Buling's footsteps, and said urgently:

"Xu Gongzi, don't be angry, the Wang family members have offered a reward of 200 taels of silver to arrest him and put him in prison, but it's worth it......"

Xu Buling turned his head: "I'll let you take on a few big cases, you waste my time going around all morning, come over and catch an adultererous skin, interesting?" ”

Zhu Manzhi's face was bitter, and his eyes were full of apologies: "I ...... I just came here and can't get a big case......"

Xu Buling thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "If you want to enter the Tianzi camp, these cats and dogs are not qualified to catch them for a lifetime, and they have to catch powerful Jianghu people." ”

Zhu Manzhi had a bitter face, a little aggrieved: "Powerful Jianghu people, we can't find it in Chang'an City, everything that is easy to catch is robbed by others, unless we investigate it slowly, otherwise where will the big case come from......"

Zheng Sandao followed in horror, and hurriedly interjected when he heard this: "Official, the little one knows a secret, it is definitely a great achievement, as long as you raise your noble hand and don't pull me to see the official ......"

Xu Buling's eyes were slightly cold: "Say." ”

Zheng Sandao opened his mouth, feeling that he didn't seem to be qualified to negotiate, so he had to speak honestly:

"A lot of gamblers have disappeared in the city recently, and no one in the government cares about it, but I heard that the small one has something to do with the White Horse Village outside the city......

Xu Buling frowned slightly, thought for a while, tilted his head and said, "Get out." ”

"Gongzi Xie!" Zheng Sandao's face was overjoyed, and he turned around and ran.

"Eh—you stop!"

Zhu Manzhi finally caught a fat rabbit, and when he saw this, he was immediately anxious, ran out and chased two steps, looked at Xu Buling next to him, and his voice weakened again:

"That's two hundred taels of silver...... My three years of ......"

Xu Buling whistled and summoned the horses, turned over and got on the horse: "Go and check the matter of Baima Village, and go to Sizhong to inquire if there are any gangsters who have entered the city recently...... Give you seven days, next time you come over, you will take me to catch cats and dogs, and I will sell you to the Qinglou to ensure that you have endless money. ”

Zhu Manzhi shuddered, and replied weakly: "Don't be so fierce, I'm a wolf guard, kidnapped and sold illegal ......"

"I don't break the law by killing people, but what law does it break by selling people?"

"The Son of Heaven broke the law, and the common people were guilty of the same crime......"

"I am not the Son of Heaven, nor am I a commoner."

"Oh...... You see. ”

Zhu Manzhi bowed his head weakly, watched Xu Buling gallop away, and quietly stuck out his tongue:

"The shelf is really big......"
