。 "Speaking of which, Hejin Xing doesn't agree to help us do the Western Front, so we have to do it ourselves...... It's the relationship between Wang Ren's side, right? "They didn't say they wanted to do it themselves, but they wanted seventy percent."

"That's pretty much it, in addition to Huangshan, the news has come back, and the wood doesn't matter, but there are ten rooms and nine empty rooms along the way, and there are too many displaced people, when you bring it back, Uncle Chen, you have to take a look." We have to give us some people from the ancestral minister's side, and tomorrow Uncle Chen, you and I will go to the ancestral minister's mansion to pay a visit. ”

"Yes...... Zu Shiyuan, has he become a prime minister? ”

"There are still a few days, but if there are no accidents, I heard that it should be the right ......"

The wind blew through the large teahouse wing, and some chaotic sounds in the outside square came in from the window, enveloping the conversations in the wings in the hustle and bustle. There were actually several people on one side of the room, led by a noble son between twenty-five and thirty years old, who was not ostentatious, but at a glance he could see that he was dressed luxuriously, his temperament was calm, and his voice seemed simple and neat.

While a few people were talking, there were also three young people, a man, two women and three young people sitting in the window on the other side, looking a little more improper. The two women are young and beautiful, but they are overly dressed, obviously they are from the Qinglou woman, but we have the impression of the young man sitting between them, his name is Lou Shuheng, at this time the smile is a little frivolous, pointing, and is saying something to the crowd in the square outside.

It was already the beginning of August, and the Holy Father Fang La's proclamation of emperor was approaching a few days. The festive atmosphere in the city has been set up, and on the other hand, some special cells have begun to be cleared. By the way, it is also necessary to add some manpower to the newly built court, and for several days, this square in the east of Hangzhou has been performing a head-killing drama every noon.

The people who were killed were different from the ordinary people who were hastily killed, and in Hangzhou in the past, most of them had various identities, or were officials. Or for the nobles. Or for the Great Confucian. Since he wanted to build a new dynasty, Fang La also understood that his pragmatic ministers and truly famous supporters were not enough, and after the city of Hangzhou was broken, although most of these people were killed, there was always a group left.

Between July and August. Some have been persuaded to surrender, and many are still stiff in their necks. It is said that in recent times, those cells. Every day is a battle of lobbying, but everyone also has a deadline, if it doesn't make sense after the expiration, they will pull out of this square and cut off their heads, don't think about it much.

During the time when the city of Hangzhou was broken, the city was full of blood, and Lou Shuheng was originally afraid of seeing blood, so he hid at home. But not anymore. He missed the time, and came over with great interest to see the head of the killing. Although Hangzhou is now a fallen city, because the killing is basically a big family, there are friends and enemies, especially under Fang La's propaganda that "the law is equal and there is no superior", many people will come to watch and applaud the killing of officials and wealthy families every day. When rows of heads fall, blood flows. He was in this teahouse room with the woman Hu Tianhu Di, and he felt very good.

Of course, there are some differences today.

Because the elder brother of the family invited a few stewards to come and talk, and by the way, he occupied half of his room.

Lou Shuwang, the eldest son of the Lou family, came a little abruptly today, and Lou Shuheng was a little confused about what his brother was thinking. When they were children, the relationship between the three of them was still good. But since Lou Shuwang failed to study and took charge of the family business, Lou Shuheng's feelings for this brother have faded. One is destined to be in business and run the family business, and the other can be an official, and there is always a sense of estrangement. Of course, although Lou Shuwang is always away from home for a lot of time throughout the year, no matter in the eyes of Lou Shuheng and Lou Shuwan, there is still a very powerful image of this brother, and in their minds, it may be second only to his father Lou Lin. ..., because of his brother's presence, Lou Shuheng was somewhat suspicious and restrained in his heart, and felt the unnaturalness of the man around him pretending to be relaxed, and the two beautiful women seemed to be a little nervous. At the round table over there, Lou Shuwang gave orders one by one, and then waved his hand gently, letting those stewards go out. He stood up, walked to this window, and found a chair to sit down: "Shuheng." ”

"Big brother!" Hugging the two women, Lou Shuheng smiled brightly, a little pretentiously flamboyant. Lou Shuwang also smiled: "It's been so long since I came back, but unfortunately I've been too busy, and it's rare to get together a few times...... Not bad. He looked out the window, and then at the two women beside Lou Shuheng.

Lou Shuheng said with a smile: "Ha Luha, the eldest brother also knows them, Guan Xin'er and Chen Tong, you know Lu Dao, one is from Zhucui Building, the other is Huaping Pavilion, the two of them have always been-for-tat, no one will let anyone, you see now, they are all obedient." Isn't that right......" He hugged the two women hard, these two were originally the top brands of Daqinglou, but at this time they just echoed and laughed, Lou Shuheng lowered his voice and said: "But big brother, don't say it, when the two of them are together, there is really a different kind of stimulation, big brother ......"

Before he finished speaking, Lou Shuwang opened his mouth gently and interrupted him: "Don't talk about this, you have also seen the recent situation, junior brother." At the beginning of the new dynasty, all kinds of waste were waiting to be rebuilt, and the money in the family came in one by one, and all the stewards were sent out. You can...... You can do this, that, anything, as long as the family is good, you can do anything. Little brother, you know the way, even my sister has been in charge recently, do you plan to go on like this? ”

"Uh, big brother, you ...... with your father anyway"

"It's not that you can't say no, you have to have a degree, you know the way." Lou Shuwang smiled.

"I'm Zhilu Dao, but ......" Lou Shuheng had a hippie smile, his hands moved irregularly, and the Guan Xin'er next to him smiled, leaned towards Lou Shuheng, rested his head on his shoulder, and said softly: "I hate it." ”

Lou Shuwang picked up the teacup in his hand, and then looked at it, as if there was no water. Lou Shuheng said: "Ah Tong, you help my eldest brother ......" Before the words fell, a sudden shout sounded in the wing: "Get out of the way!" Before Lou Shuheng could react, the teacup and tea burst open on Guan Xin'er's face, and the next moment, Guan Xin'er's lower abdomen was kicked by Lou Shuwang, who stood up suddenly, and the whole person flew out of the body screaming. The woman named Chen Tong stood up with wide eyes, and Lou Shuwang had already picked up the chair beside her. smashed down on her head, Chen Tong stretched out his hand to block it, and then fell out along with the chair. The floor of the house was thumping.

Lou Shuwang stood there with a gloomy face: "You understand? ”

The woman's cries and cries continued to sound. Lou Shuheng was stunned by the whole thing, although his brother has been running outside in recent years, he is not a person with a fierce temper, because he has read books, he is basically still gentle and elegant. He had never seen him like this. At this time, I just subconsciously answered: "What, what......"

"Now in Hangzhou City, you have everything and nothing." Lou Shuwang said, stretched out his finger and pointed to the square outside, then turned around and walked out the door. As he walked, he said, "You came to see this now, you haven't seen it more than twenty days ago, you were in this room." Someone is guarded, and you can kill it as much as you want outside, it's very beautiful. More than 20 days ago, if you had stood outside and watched, those who had been disemboweled, buried alive...... I've seen ......"

He paused: "Little brother, do you know the way?" Hangzhou is still the same now, if it was before, I wouldn't dare to beat people on this floor, I wouldn't dare to do anything with people. Now it's okay to do anything. I know how many women you snatched back, and a few of them died, it doesn't matter. Manly husband, you can play, but you have to be in moderation...... We used to do business, and when we lost, our family was hungry at best. If we lose now, we will be the same as them, little brother, do you know the way? Now there are only two steps, one step forward, and we are like this now. That's heaven, one step back...... Shout. It fell. He opened the door, outside the door was a guard, Lou Shuwang drew the other party's knife, but then let it in, when he turned around, he pulled out a dagger in his hand, and walked straight towards Guan Xin'er on the ground: "You don't understand, I'll let you see it clearly." ”

Lou Shuheng was almost stunned: "Brother! You, you, you...... What are you doing......

The sound of begging for mercy and screaming sounded in the room, Lou Shuwang grabbed the woman, stabbed it violently, and stabbed it eight times in a row in the screams before letting the woman go. The room was covered with blood, Lou Shuwang's hands, body, and even half of his face were already bloody, he leaned sideways and blinked: "You understand?" If you don't understand, it's okay, it's like this......"

As he spoke, he walked towards Chen Tong, who had climbed to the corner on the ground on the other side, the woman was smashed by a chair, although she reached out to block it, but blood was still smashed out of her head, and she couldn't get up at this time, crying and begging for mercy. Lou Shuheng shouted by the window: "I know the truth!" Brother, I know the truth! ”

Lou Shuwang had already squatted down at this time, paused at this time, stretched out his hands, Chen Tong screamed, thinking that he would die, and the next moment, he was gently hugged by Lou Shuwang.

The man whispered, "It's okay, it's okay, don't cry...... Sorry to scare you. ”

After a while, Lou Shuwang got up from the ground, threw away the dagger, and looked at his younger brother: "That's it now, if you do it, you may die, and no one cares if you die." If you are afraid, you can only move forward so that others cannot kill us...... Don't do that anymore. Think about it, and start helping the family in a few days...... I'll go wash it. ”

After he finished speaking, he left the room, asked the guards to clean up the body, went downstairs by himself to change his clothes, washed his hands and head and face, and his hands trembled a little during the whole process, but he finally finished everything and went back to the room. The younger brother was still sitting in the chair by the window, but his eyes finally moved, and he walked over and sat down on the chair on the other side, and the brothers did not speak. But his existence still appeased Lou Shuheng, after a while, Lou Shuheng finally roughly recovered his nature, in the past few days, he had seen dead people after all, but this time he was a little shocked.

There was still a little time before noon, but there were more and more people gathered in the square. Lou Shuheng's gaze wandered aimlessly in the crowd, and at a certain moment, he suddenly saw a figure. His mind was still shocked by Guan Xin'er's death, but this figure made him a little unable to ignore it, looked at it a few times, looked at it a few times, frowned, and after a while, looked at his brother, and then stood up in front of the window.

Lou Shuwang looked at him with his eyes, and there were people over there: "What's wrong?" ”

"That, that ......" Lou Shuheng frowned, "That looks like Ning Liheng...... No, it's really him, how could it be, over there...... It's almost gone. He and his maid Xiaochan. ”

Regarding Ning Yi, Lou Shuwang only met Ning Yi and Su Tan'er when they first arrived in Hangzhou, and then left Hangzhou to run a business. He hurried back when Hangzhou was besieged, and after the city was broken, Zhilu Dao's family took refuge in Fang La, and he was deliberately captured by the rebels, during which he saw many dead people. But thinking back to the original meeting, since Ning Yi was a son-in-law, he naturally didn't even look at it seriously. When I came back this time, I vaguely heard someone mention one or two sentences about the unpleasant quarrel between the Su family and his family, but there are too many serious things, so I naturally forget about this matter. At this time, I looked at my younger brother, but I seemed a little worried.

Some small contradictions at the beginning can basically be seen as floating clouds at this time, Lou Shuwang didn't care about the Su family, he sat there and watched. The younger brother then talked a little incoherently about some rumors that Ning Liheng had escaped, and what else was going on in Huzhou, so he poured a cup of tea and handed it over. ..., "Are you sure it's him...... Don't think about it. There are so many people that you can't find them now, but as long as you're in Hangzhou, you can always find people. Ning Liheng...... There are a few people here, and you are looking for someone, which may be beneficial. Lou Xiang's son Lou Jingzhi, I know, he has been interested in our business recently, you are a person who can play, get to know him in the next few days, go find him...... There is a man called Criminal Administration, who has a wide range of connections, and we have two businesses to pass through him, and you can send him something, and by the way, you can ask him to inquire about you, and there are also ...... Are you sure that is Ning Liheng? ”

"OK...... And there is a servant girl named Xiaochan by his side, and Fang Cai also followed......"

"Then nothing else. You have to know that Lu Dao, with your cleverness, now in Hangzhou, you can do anything, if you want to do it, you can do it yourself, I don't interfere......" After he finished speaking, he thought about it again, "Oh, do you like that Su Tan'er?" ”

Lou Shuheng was stunned: "That, that slut ......"

He didn't finish his words, he didn't seem to be able to find many adjectives, when Hangzhou City was broken, he thought that the other party had run away, but now he suddenly found that the person was still there, and Lou Shuheng couldn't think of what to do for a while. Lou Shuwang looked at him, for a long time, and nodded: "Zhilu has ...... said."

********************

There were already a lot of people in the square outside, and the noisy sound came, and Ning Yi walked through a relatively long passage.

said that he was arrested, but the ban given to him by the Badao Battalion was not very much, and it was okay to go out, and it was okay to move around, of course, someone had to follow him from a distance, but he didn't come to see the excitement of the killing.

Soon after, he met an acquaintance, the head of the Qian family, an old man who originally thought that he had escaped with the ship at the beginning of the city-Qian Xiwen. ()
