"My lord! Yue Xiang and Mingzhu girl brought! ”

"Hmmm! You go out first......"

"Yes!"

"Yue Xiang and Mingzhu meet your lords!"

"Hmm~ get up!"

Li Ke raised his head and looked at the second daughter in front of him, Yue Xiang's dress today is very different from the past! In the past, it was plain, but now it is also a brocade with a little powder! However, the biggest feature is that she has become a little more aura, which is related to her current work!

Different from Yue Xiang is the pearl beside him, although he is also dressed gorgeously, he is tired and haggard! For this woman who has the reality of husband and wife but has no name of husband and wife, Li Ke still has a trace of distress!

"Thank you, sir!"

After the two straightened up, Mingzhu didn't dare to look at Li Ke! She was scared, and what happened that night hit her hard! Broke down her mental defenses and let her collapse to the end!

Although Li Ke found her like this, he didn't say it directly! Instead, he said to Yue Xiang: "Yue Xiang! Today, we don't think of humility, we judge our peers! You are my sister, I am your brother! ”

"Huh?! This ...... I can't help it......"

Yue Xiang was frightened by Li Ke's words, she didn't know what Li Ke meant, why did she suddenly become brother and sister?

"It's okay! Brother has a few things to tell you, and you should listen up! Li Ke shook his hand to signal her not to be nervous, everything went according to what she said!

Yue Xiang was a little nervous but bold enough to murmur, "Brother...... Brother please say...... "Her voice is small, but for her it is a breakthrough!

"Hmmm! Very good! ”

Li Ke smiled and praised it, and then said: "Brother is going to Shanzhou, and some shops in Luoyang will be no one to manage them!" So my brother discussed with a few sisters-in-law, and planned to hand over all the shops in Luoyang to you to manage......

"Huh?! What the? Yue Xiang was taken aback, although he was prepared, he didn't expect the result to be like this! Shouldn't it be that she and Mingzhu each own half of each other's cross-management and run the shop!?

"That is to say, the shops in Luoyang will be up to you alone in the future, of course! You can't talk about the cinema alone, you need to discuss it with Grandpa Qu! After Li Ke said this, Yue Xiang's whole face changed! Mingzhu on the side trembled even more, and tears flowed down uncontrollably!

Mingzhu frowned and said, "I understand what my brother means, but Mingzhu ...... What to do? After Mingzhu finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the sad Mingzhu, and his heart was also heartache! However, Mingzhu also has his own thoughts at this time, that is, if Li Ke abandons Mingzhu, then he will raise Mingzhu or admit her to work in the shop!

But what scared Yue Xiang was ...... If you are willing to do this, Mingzhu may not be willing to accept her help! She knows Mingzhu too well, Mingzhu is no longer the pearl she used to be, and now Mingzhu has grown into another person who is arrogant!

Li Ke looked at Mingzhu and said to Yue Xiang: "Mingzhu's matter...... You don't have to worry about it, my brother has his own arrangements! When Mingzhu heard this, his mind went blank in an instant!

Yue Xiang was a little nervous and impatient and said, "Yue Xiang, can you ask my brother...... Is there anything arranged for Mingzhu......" Li Ke's eyes widened, and he said, "You don't believe in my brother?" ”

"No, no, no! Yue Xiang believes in her brother, but Yue Xiang also cares about Mingzhu! Mingzhu has no family anymore, and her only brother died last year! She is helpless now, Yue Xiang really doesn't want to see her......"

"Enough! My brother said that he would give her a suitable job! You don't have to worry about it......"

Yue Xiang was interrupted by Li Ke before he finished speaking, Yue Xiang bit his lip and knelt down with a "plop"!

Li Ke was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "What are you doing here?" This is to ask your brother?! "Yue Xiang does this, which makes Li Ke like and hate it, which is very contradictory!

can sacrifice this part for the sake of his friends, and his character has absolutely nothing to say! However, this method is a bit of a bull's horn, and forcing people to do this kind of thing will not be comfortable no matter who it is!

"Nope! My brother is the best person I've ever met, and he's the most important person at this time besides Mingzhu! Mingzhu was just confused for a while, and asked my brother not to abandon Mingzhu...... Yue Xiang kowtowed to her brother......"

After Yue Xiang finished speaking, he didn't wait for Li Ke to react, and kowtowed to the ground with "bang bang bang~"! Mingzhu hurriedly ran over and hugged Yue Xiang, crying and saying, "Xiang! No! I was wrong, I couldn't be more wrong...... I don't allow you to persecute adults like this, all the fault is my fault! I deserve it, but I can't watch you ruin yourself......"

Seeing the two hugging and kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly, Li Ke said in his heart:! Am I going too far?!

"Ahem! Come on! Lao Tzu said that it is not okay?! Don't cry...... Benima cried! I'm crying to brush the toilet for Lao Tzu! Seeing that he couldn't speak well, Li Ke suddenly scolded the two of them loudly!

The cries of the two suddenly tightened, and only the choked sound was uncontrollable! Li Ke "exhaled" and muttered: "Mingzhu wants to go to Shanzhou with me......"

Yue Xiang was stunned for a moment, as if she had heard it wrong, and choked up and asked, "Huh?!" What the...... Where to go? Mingzhu was shocked, but her face was mixed! At this moment, she didn't know what she should do, she was happy and confused!

"Go to Shanzhou! That is the place that Li Shimin asked me to go, and my brother wants to take Mingzhu with him! Are you satisfied?! Li Ke glanced at Yue Xiang and thought: You are so good, you think about your companions in everything!

Yue Xiang turned her head and said happily to Mingzhu, "Haha! Pearl! Did you hear that?! My brother said that I was going to take it to Shanzhou, and you can finally be with your brother! Congratulations...... However, you have to think about it, do you stay here or go with your brother? Yue Xiang's last sentence put Mingzhu in a dilemma, on the one hand, she did not hesitate to harm her sister for herself, and on the other hand, she hesitated for the man and life she wanted!

"I'm ...... I don't know ......."

"You...... You don't know?! Yue Xiang stared at Mingzhu in front of her, she couldn't believe that this was Mingzhu's words! Although Li Ke agreed to let her go with her, what Mingzhu said before was so sarcastic about herself......

Li Ke said: "Mingzhu went to Shanzhou with me this time to help me develop a shop on Shanzhou Road, and at present, only Yurou and Mingzhu can do it!" Otherwise, Yurou alone would never be able to complete this difficult task! ”

Finally, Mingzhu understood what Li Ke meant! He doesn't want himself, he wants the ability to help him! But Mingzhu didn't know what to do, she finally fantasized about being able to follow Li Ke, but now she realized it but was helpless!

"Mingzhu, you have a word! If you don't want to go, I don't think adults will blame you...... Isn't it, sir? Yue Xiang knew that Mingzhu couldn't listen to herself at this time, and she should be making a very difficult choice now! Since Mingzhu couldn't listen to herself, she turned her head and asked Li Ke!

"Uh...... It's okay, if Mingzhu really doesn't want to follow me, then she will stay in Luoyang......" It's all said and done, Li Ke can't refuse, so he can only nod and agree! At the same time, Li Ke also secretly thought that this Yue Xiang had grown up now, and he dared to gag himself with words!

After getting Li Ke's consent, Yue Xiang was not even stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said to Mingzhu: "Did you hear that?!" Your Excellency agrees, speak quickly! ”

"I don't know! I do not know...... My mind is very messy right now, can I give me some time? Please give me a little time......" Mingzhu covered her head like crazy! In the end, he actually begged, which made Li Ke moved for a while and Yue Xiang felt distressed for a while!

Yue Xiang hurriedly hugged Mingzhu, hugged her distressedly and whispered, "Okay...... I won't force you, you have to think about it, you've already missed it once! I don't want you to be wrong again and again......"

"Bang!"

A large bag appeared out of thin air and smashed on the ground, it was a sack, and the whole bag was almost full! The heavy sound made the two women's bodies shake, and they hurriedly looked up!

Li Ke explained: "This bag is full of silver, which will be used to build a health center in the future!" Including the money will be used in the future, these are all up to you! ”

"Huh?! This ...... How much silver does this have to have!? Such a sack ...... "Although Yue Xiang has seen a lot of silver, it is rare for this kind of sack full of silver to be handed over to himself!" The little heart was stimulated and jumped, and his face was also ruddy!

Li Ke thought to himself: If you don't know it, you will scream at this bit of silver?! If it becomes a mountain in the future, it won't scare you to death?! Li Ke smiled and said, "Okay, you two can bring the silver back......

"What's that...... Brother! Mingzhu and I can't lift ......" Yue Xiang said embarrassedly, looking at Li Ke speechlessly, thinking: Where did Li Ke get this kind of heavy silver?!

"Shock! Look at me! Forget about it, you wait, I'll call someone to come......" After that, Li Ke came to the door! He said to the three guards outside the door, "You go and carry the sack in the house to Yue Xiang's room!" ”

This guard is not the guard of the Li Mansion, but the guard of Qu Tushou! According to Qu Tushou's orders, he must obey the orders given by Li Ke! Hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Subordinates obey!" ”

Turning back into the house, the guards also lifted the sack, and you could see it! It is still very difficult for the three of them to lift this huge sack, if they let Yue Xiang and Mingzhu carry it, I don't know if Ma Yue can carry it in the Year of the Monkey!

"Go back and think about it! Recently, the official is about to leave, so you have to be ready......" After Li Ke finished speaking, he walked out, walked to the door, turned his head and glanced at the two of them, and then turned his head and left!

……

Early the next morning

"My lord! The guards of the Qu Guo Mansion came to ask for a meeting, saying that they had something to report......"

"Commander-in-Chief?! Qu Guo Mansion ......"

Li Ke lay on the bed and tossed and turned, lifted the quilt violently, and scolded angrily at the door: "Noisy your sister! Don't let people sleep in the morning?! ”

"Please forgive the commander-in-chief, someone from the Qu Guo Mansion has come, saying that you are invited to come over!" Cao Yang's voice came from the door, and Li Ke scratched his head and asked, "Did you say anything?!" ”

"It was said that there was an accident in the movie theater and 18 people died!"

"What?! 18 dead?! ”

Li Ke was shocked and hurriedly jumped off the bed! I didn't even wear any clothes, so I ran out of the door barefoot! It's not a trivial matter to be dead, it's possible that the assassin who wasn't caught last time was doing it!

"Bang~"

Li Ke forcefully opened the door and shouted, "How can so many people die, what is going on?" Cao Yang hurriedly said: "The subordinates don't know, they only know that 18 people died, so the subordinates hurriedly came to tell the commander-in-chief!" ”

"! Prepare the horses! ”

Li Ke hurriedly asked Cao Yang to prepare the horse, and he also went back to the room to get dressed! "Husband! What's going on? What killed 18 people? At this time, Rika heard the voice and hurriedly came over to ask! Behind him are Li Qing and Bai Yurou!

Li Ke said while dressing: "18 people died in the cinema, Lao Qu let me go!" Presumably this matter has something to do with the last assassin, you take care of the children at home, I want to go over and take a look! ”

"How could this happen...... Could it be that her husband borrowed Lao Qu's guards, and then there were not enough guards in Qu Guogong's mansion to cause such a thing to happen? Rika frowned and muttered!

Bai Yurou nodded, and said in thought: "Almost, there will inevitably be loopholes due to lack of manpower!" Besides, the movie theater also has a husband, and the husband has been in the house, and the assassin has no way to assassinate the husband, so he will definitely not let the husband have a good time! ”

Li Qing said: "This group of ghostly little ghosts are always so annoying, it seems! This Luoyang is going to change the sky again......"

"That's it! Stay at home, I'll go back!" Li Ke got dressed, picked up a cloak, and went out! Pear blossom shouted from behind: "Husband, pay attention to safety, take Tianheng with you!" There is also a response on the road! ”

"Hmmm......"

Li Ke agreed without looking back, and quickly walked towards the door of the front hall! Cao Yang was already waiting at the door, and Tianheng was still standing beside him! Li Ke smiled and secretly praised Cao Yang, this guy is a person who can do things!

Tianheng bowed to Li Ke and said, "Commander-in-chief, Tianheng is here to escort!" Tianheng was already fully armed, and from the collar of his coat, he could see that he was still wearing the body armor given by Li Ke, and he was carrying a sword at his waist!

"Well, without further ado, let's go early and do things early! Cao Yang, you don't have to go, you can train newcomers well with Da Zhuang in Fuzhong! After Li Ke finished speaking, he turned over on his horse, and Tianheng also turned over on his own horse!

Cao Yanggang wanted to open his mouth and beg Li Ke to let him take him, but he didn't expect Li Ke to slap the horse directly! Xiaobai "hiss~" and ran outside the house......

"Can two people do it? I hope the commander-in-chief is okay and comes back safely! ”

……

"You're here to report the news?!"

There was a man standing at the door of the Li Mansion, wearing the robes of the guards of the Qu Guo Mansion! With a long knife in his left hand and a reins in his right hand! Hearing Li Ke's question, he hurriedly saluted and said, "Report to Lord Li, my subordinates are indeed the guards who came to the Li Mansion to report the news!" ”

Li Ke nodded, and said without doubting him: "Get on the horse quickly, time is pressing, let's talk on the road!" The guards hurriedly turned on their horses, and the three of them rode away on fast horses......

On the way, Li Ke asked, "What's going on?" Why did 18 people die, did someone make trouble on purpose? ”

The guard said: "The subordinates don't know the specific reason, since the dawn, there are many people queuing up to watch movies in the cinema every day!" It doesn't end until the end of the night! ”

"It's over?! ......."

Li Ke was stunned, it was between 7 and 9 o'clock in the evening! I thought: This old comrade Qu earns more money than himself, but I don't know how these people can go back after watching the movie? It's a curfew!

"How will those people go back at night?"

"Don't worry, my lord, Grandpa Guo will arrange guards to escort the people home every night! Moreover, it is divided by region! The words of this guard made Li Ke stunned for a moment, and he thought: "Divide according to the region?" What do you mean? This Luoyang can be said to be a region? Could it be that there are people other than Luoyang? ”

"I know the zoning, but ...... How and the zoning method? ”

The guard stood against the wind that ruffled his hair and said, "That's it...... Every square is an area, just like a post station! When you arrive, you break away from there and go home on your own! ”

"Holy! This ...... Isn't this Nima just a bus? It's still made up of people from Nima! After Li Ke finished speaking, he said suspiciously: "Who thought of this method?" ”

The guard said proudly: "Hehe, naturally it is the grandfather of the country!" ”

Li Ke smiled and said: "This product is ......" Before the words were finished, a commotion suddenly popped up in Li Ke's mind! Why don't you follow the example of Comrade Lao Qu? Wouldn't it be faster to divide the shops according to the area and open the shops?!

However, if this area is divided...... Why don't you follow Li Shimin's method and come out of the whole 15 ways?! Forget it, let's follow the path drawn by Li Shimin! Lest another bastard want to impeach Lao Tzu again! This Luoyang can be expanded outwards and spread shops all over Henan Road!

It just so happened that this time I went to Shanzhou again, and Shanzhou is the seat of Longyou Dao! In this way, you can open a shop yourself! Now 15 have opened the half of Luoyang, and the Longyou Road has been pre-selected! There are 13 more, alas! The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard!

"My lord! Something is wrong......"

Just as Li Ke was immersed in the world he had planned, Tianheng's cautious voice suddenly came to his ears! In this way, Li Ke was shocked, and quickly turned his head and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's summer, and there are a lot of birds, beasts, and insects! There are no birds and beasts, and there is not even a single farmer! Isn't it strange that small traders and vendors get up early in the morning to sell things, and now there is no one? ”

Tianheng analyzed it and said what he thought! Li Ke was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then pulled the reins to slow down the horse! Li Ke could hear it, and the guards in the Qu Guo Mansion beside him could naturally hear it too! After all, Tianheng didn't deliberately avoid him, and there was no way to avoid him!

"What's wrong, Lord Li?! Why did it stop? Seeing that Li Ke had stopped, the guards on the Qu Guo Mansion also pulled the reins and stopped and asked Li Ke suspiciously!

Without waiting for Li Ke to speak, Tianheng pulled the reins with his left hand as he spoke, and touched the hilt of the sword with his right hand, "Something is wrong, I'm afraid there is something strange here!" ”

"What weirdness can be weird, those birds you said before are not normal! There's no fuss, and as for the small merchants and vendors, they may have already gone to the market, after all, it was early in the morning! ”

What the guards in Qu Guo's mansion said is not wrong, you can't look at the birds and no one thinks there is anything strange! Li Ke didn't speak, at this time he believed Tianheng's words! It's not because of how clear his analysis is, on the contrary! Tianheng is usually used to being in middle school, Li Ke really can't believe what Tianheng said!

But! Li Ke believes in Tianheng's instinct, the instinct of a person with strong martial arts, just like General Huang! At that time, when he and General Huang walked to the dark alley, it was General Huang's sensitivity to murderous spirit that saved his life!

Now, Tianheng said this, which is the main reason why Li Ke is willing to believe him!

"Let's go! Let's go! Now Grandpa Guo is still waiting in the mansion, Lord Li doesn't know how to start investigating if he doesn't go, so he can only let all the guards in the mansion go to check randomly! ”

Lao Qu's guards were very urgent, and they only wanted Li Ke to set off quickly! This made Li Ke frown, and he always felt that something was wrong! Li Ke muttered and asked, "The guards of the Guogong Mansion have all been sent out?" ”

Lao Qu's guard was stunned for a moment, and thought: I can't understand people's words, or what?!

"That's for sure! Something so big happened, Grandpa Guo sent all the guards in the mansion to the purpose of catching the murderer! ”

As if he had caught something, Li Ke narrowed his eyes and asked, "How many guards have been dispatched?" These words made the other party stunned, and he boldly said: "Uh...... All of them were dispatched, about 100 people......"

"100 people?!"

Li Ke was stunned for a moment and suddenly laughed and said, "Hahaha, are you sure?" When Tianheng heard this, he immediately became cautious, and his eyes were like eagles staring at the guard of Qu Tushou!

"What do you mean, sir?!"

Lao Qu's guard's face changed suddenly, and he pretended to be calm with a black face! But he didn't expect Li Ke to stretch out his hand and "snap" a few times, and said coldly: "You're not Lao Qu's guard, right?!" ”

Lao Qu's guard said a little nervously: "Master Li...... I don't understand what you're talking about, how dare the guards of the Guogong Mansion pretend to be someone who is not afraid of death? ”

Li Ke secretly took out the pistol and held it in his hand, covered it with his loose sleeve robe, and pointed the muzzle of the gun at the guard, and muttered: "Do you pretend to be like a mirror in your heart, you keep saying that you are a guard in the palace of Qu Guo, then I want to ask you!" Has there been any major incident in the Qu Guo Mansion recently?! Except, of course, the 18 dead you said! ”

"Yes! But the subordinate has a low status, and no identity can know what is decided from above......"

This man is quite clever, and he has no problem saying it! There are some things that people with low status can't know, but he still shows his stuff! The question asked by Li Ke is not difficult to answer, this Qu Guo Mansion suddenly poured out so many guards! Can the rest of the people in this house still know?

It can be seen from here that this person is panicking, this is a fake guard in the Qu Guo Mansion!
