Knock - Knock -

The morning bell rang one hundred and eight.

The city gate and the palace gate were opened one after another, and the civil and military officials walked through the royal road in a neat manner and entered the Taiji Hall in the center of the entire empire.

The mist rises between the markets, and the people from all over the world, the rangers, and even the exotic merchants are busy in the streets and alleys, working for their own little days.

In the small wine shop in Bluestone Lane, Shopkeeper Sun has been walking around the shop for decades, and when he saw the white-clothed woman waiting quietly with a hat outside the wine shop, he shook his head and smiled:

"Girl, it's not a good thing that my daughter's family loves to drink, and if you drink too much that day, beware of suffering, um...... More than ten years ago, there was a family like this, and he met a chivalrous woman, who was also as beautiful as a fairy. That family is a gentleman, and he makes trouble in the capital all day long, and he can't get into the eyes of that chivalrous woman, guess what happened in the end? ”

Ning Qingye's eyes wandered around the alley, and he replied calmly: "I don't know." ”

Shopkeeper Sun smacked wine and smiled quite reminiscingly: "In the end, the family came up with a bad idea, and tricked the chivalrous girl into the wine shop, which was a mess of pouring and wanting to get the woman drunk......"

Ning Qingye's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he understood what the family Zi'an's heart was, and snorted lightly:

"Since she can be called a heroine, her physique must be good, how can she be drunk by a family."

"Huh...... Things are strange here. ”

Shopkeeper Sun shook his head leisurely: "The little old man is also well-informed, I thought that the family would definitely be cleaned up, but I didn't expect that after a few glasses of wine, the woman was really drunk and was taken away by the family......"

Ning Qingye was stunned for a moment, retracted his gaze, and looked at the shopkeeper Sun in the wine shop: "Why didn't the shopkeeper stop it?" That woman must have fallen for the villain's dirty methods......"

Shopkeeper Sun shook his head and glanced at Ning Qingye meaningfully:

"Wine is a good thing and solves a lot of things. Sometimes if you don't get drunk, the chances of others coming there are ......"

Ning Qingye blinked, obviously not understanding the meaning of Shopkeeper Sun's words:

"What happened to the woman in the end?"

"Finally...... became a princess and gave birth to a very powerful son......"

Shopkeeper Sun handed the wine jug to Ning Qingye and chuckled: "The girl buys so much wine and doesn't drink it, maybe one day she will throw it away." Xu Gongzi doesn't come every day, you have to wait until you sit directly in the shop. ”

Ning Qingye took the wine jug, and did not deny it: "I owe him a favor, I offended him by my gaffe last time, and I want to apologize to him." Then he turned and left the alley.

Shopkeeper Sun pursed his lips, shook his head and smiled, and continued to toss the small shop.

After about a quarter of an hour, the sound of horses' hooves sounded in the alley, and the sound was familiar.

In the past, this horse that was much more majestic than ordinary horses would also attract a lot of attention, but today the drinkers in the alley retreated to the alley wall with pale faces and leaned against it, watching the horses pass by without saying a word.

On the tall horse sat a familiar handsome boy, stained with a lot of blood, and a package hung behind the saddle, the size of a watermelon, and the cloth was blood-red, still dripping with blood.

On the battlefield, take the head of the military merit, the warrior who returned from victory, the war horse is basically hung with a string of heads, the more it means that the greater the military merit, the more you can get the praise of the people for a parade into the city, and you can also show your strength, which is a very common thing at the border pass, if you go out and have nothing, many soldiers are embarrassed to enter the city during the day.

But this is Chang'an, the imperial capital of Dayue, which has not been disturbed by the war for many years, and the war has long been forgotten, and the control is extremely strict, even the underground gang private fight only dares to be carried out at night, and such scenes have been seen there.

Many of the drinkers trembled their legs, and even took their horses past before retching against the wall.

Shopkeeper Sun heard the movement, looked up, he had seen everything in his life, and he didn't react to this head, but looked at Xu Buling quite nervously:

"Ouch! Childe, what were you doing last night? Why did you make it look like this......"

Xu Buling returned last night It was late, the city gate was opened in the morning to enter the city, and the wine gourd in his hand was already empty, so he untied the wine gourd from the side of the horse and threw it to the shopkeeper Sun:

"It's just a small matter, let's have a pot of wine."

Shopkeeper Sun nodded, knowing the details of Xu Buling, naturally not worried about Xu Buling's safety, in Chang'an City, as long as Xu Buling killed not the Song family, there will be people from the government who come out to wash the floor.

"Childe, that girl often comes to buy wine these days, little old man, I see that she is not a good wine, at most two sips to try it, I come to buy a pot every day, I don't know what it means......"

"Huh...... Got it. ”

Xu Buling did not dismount, and after the wine gourd was full, he leaned over to take it, and left Qingshi Lane with the horse's belly.

-----

In the early morning, the high-ranking families on Kuishou Street were silent, because today's holy feast was held by the ministers, and the big houses of each family went to the palace without exception, and only some partial houses on the street went out to wander accompanied by the maids of the family.

The difference between the descendants of the family is much stricter than that of ordinary people, just like the Huainan Xiao family who is famous all over the world, the children of the Xiao family are all over the world, and the estimated number of officials alone is more than 100 people, and the descendants of the long house are treated by the Son of Heaven as a national soldier. But the concubines born to concubines have no status, and at most the family property given to them when they are adults will go out and fend for themselves.

Li Baoyi, the Marquis of Zhongyong, has a lot of concubines, more than a dozen sons, but only two sons-in-law, one is a general at the border pass, and the other is Li Tianlu, who made friends with the younger generation of powerful people in Chang'an to develop the family business.

It's a pity that today, the Li family's face is gone.

Pedal Pedal –

The sound of hurried horses' hooves, as if no one was around, passed through the three octagonal arches, and walked quickly to the door of the Li family's mansion at the end of Kuishou Street.

On the vermilion lacquer gate behind the two stone lions, the signboard of the three gilded characters of 'Loyal and Brave Waiting' shines brightly, several sergeants stand in front of the door to patrol, and the steward stands at the door waiting for the guests who may be on it at any time, and the pomp is much more magnificent than that of the Suwang Mansion.

Xu Buling drove his horse to the gate of Li's house, turned over and dismounted, and walked to the gate with the package.

The housekeeper naturally recognized Xu Buling, and was startled when he saw this little prince coming to the door, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, but he didn't think that a bloody package was thrown over, rolling out a distance outside the vermilion lacquer gate.

"Little prince! You're ......"

The housekeeper's eyelids jumped, and he realized that something was wrong.

Xu Buling pulled out the official sword from the guard's waist, and rushed up the steps with a big stride and flew up.

Boom –

In a flash of the sword, the plaque of the Loyal Waiting House split in two and fell to the ground.

Jingle bells......

The faces of many guards and masters changed greatly, but they didn't dare to squeak and stood in place in a panic.

Xu Buling fell back to the ground, threw out the official knife and stuck it on the gate, and said coldly:

"Killing the people, relying on the holy favor to fly high, what the hell is loyal and brave. I'll teach you a lesson today, and next time I'll let me hear such rumors, and slaughter your Li family! ”

When the words fell, Xu Buling waved his sleeves, turned around and got on the horse and walked away.

Many of the guards and stewards froze in place, confused, but they did not dare to be angry.

After a moment of stagnancy, the steward came back to his senses, squatted down and opened the package tremblingly, and when he looked at it, he was sitting on the ground with a pale face:

"Quick...... Hurry up and go to the palace to inform the master...... Second Young Master...... The second young master was killed! ……”

"Ahh

Screaming, confusion, and wailing spread throughout the entire Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion in an instant.

And the initiator has long since disappeared from the mansion......
