Chang'an (Daxing) City, the land of ancient Longxing. Returning here again after six years, Xiao Zhuo looked at everything familiar and couldn't help but feel a little sad. Since the imperial capital moved eastward, in the past three years, it has long faded away from the prosperity of the thousand-year-old capital. It's just that without the seat of imperial power, this place has become a paradise for the families and the descendants of the nobles.

"Li Gongzi, I don't know where you are staying in Chang'an?" Li Xiuning is one of the big families in this family.

"I don't know if Miss Li's house is short of customers?" Xiao Zhuo thought for a moment and said. Of course, their Xiao family is also one of them, but at this time he is already Li Chunfeng, how can he live back to the Xiao family, not to mention that he is still the "unfilial grandson" of the Xiao family!

As soon as Li Xiuning heard this, she was a little happy in her heart, she had the intention of soliciting Li Chunfeng, but she was afraid of being abrupt, so she didn't speak immediately, but she didn't expect Li Chunfeng to already have the intention of choosing the master. But listen to the meaning of his words...... "Li Gongzi is saying...... I? ”

Li Xiuning wanted to confirm again, according to her original meaning, she wanted to recommend Li Chunfeng to her husband Yuan Shao, or her eldest brother Li Jiancheng, but Li Chunfeng seemed to be talking about her!

"That's right! Miss Li has a stoic mind and a talent for pioneering, why can't she have a doorman? Through last night's experience, Xiao Zhuo also admired Li Xiuning a little. If an ordinary woman is possessed by evil spirits, she rarely has the will to remain. But Li Xiuning retained a trace of sobriety, so that he could expel the evil in his body through the pure heart trick he taught, and this will is really beyond ordinary people. And from Jinyang to Chang'an, no matter how slow it is, it will only be able to arrive in three or four days, but she has been gone for half a month, I am afraid that in this half month, she has been sorting out the Li family's industry in various places. And those who can have such talents, how can they be ordinary women?

"Li Gongzi said with a smile, since ancient times, it has been your man's business to conquer the world, how can any woman achieve such a feat?" Li Xiuning said, how could he not be moved in his heart. She also often thought about how bold she must be when she stood proudly in the army of ten thousand horses with a gun, waving her troops back and forth on the battlefield! But she just thought about it, and didn't think deeply, what she wanted most now was to see her husband quickly.

"Not before, not necessarily in the future, if Miss Li can achieve such a great cause, wouldn't it be unprecedented, the world's swan song?" When Xiao Zhuo said this, seeing that Li Xiuning no longer looked at him, he said: "In ancient times, there were women who fought for their husbands, and Mulan fought for their fathers. ”

This teenager! Li Xiuning was really shocked! Since ancient times, the world has been dominated by men and women, but I didn't expect that there are really people in this world who think the same as themselves, and they are still a teenager who looks only eighteen years old!

While talking, the two came to the Li Mansion and went out to greet Li Jiancheng, the son of the Li family, and Chai Shao, the son-in-law of the Li family. And since Chai Shao fled Jinyang and came to Chang'an, he has lived every day, worrying every day that the imperial court will issue a sea fishing document to arrest him. It wasn't until the news of Wagang's big break of the backer king came a few days ago that he finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to help Li Jiancheng take care of the Li family's family business in Chang'an with peace of mind. And when he saw Li Chunfeng coming with Li Xiuning at this time, he only thought that Li Chunfeng had come from Jinyang, not only did he not ask too much, but he was also a little happy, because Chang'an City has not been very peaceful recently! And in order to solve these uneven problems, the Li Mansion can also be said to be recruiting talents everywhere, so he sent back to Jinyang to invite Yuan Tiangang.

At noon, Li Xiuning, who had rested, was taken by Chai Shao to visit Chang'an City, pavilions and palaces, flower street restaurants, pearls and jade ornaments, and plain brocade costumes. But Chai Shao felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, because no matter where they went, morning or night, before or after, they could see a young man with two swords on his back! It's as if Li Chunfeng was sent by someone to keep an eye on him and Li Xiuning! But how did he know that the place they swam through was the same place that Xiao Zhuo took Jin Ruo to walk through back then. It wasn't until around Shen Shi that when they stepped into the Qi Immortal Residence, Li Chunfeng finally didn't follow them anymore!

Xiao Zhuo stood at the gate of the palace city, looking at this once glorious old capital, and his heart was also a little complicated. Here, when he was young, he relied on his aunt's momentum, and he also came many times, and some of the layout and furnishings in it still remain in his memory. However, with the completion of the new capital and the relocation of the imperial power, there are only a few attendants and guards left here to keep it from being abandoned, and perhaps waiting for the day when the emperor will return!

Xiao Zhuo walked over, and with him, there was a man and a woman, the man was about thirty years old, and the woman was about twenty years old, they all looked very capable, and they seemed to be people who traveled all year round. However, what attracted Xiao Zhuo the most about the two of them was not their people, but their swords

"Who is Your Excellency and what are you doing here?" The man looked at the boy, who was more than ten years younger than himself, and he didn't know why such a stinky person would come here to compete with him.

"Who is Your Excellency? What are you doing here? Xiao Zhuo didn't answer him, but asked back

"In Xia Li Jing, this is just a little cheap." Li Jing replied with a fist salute.

"Zhang Chuchen." The woman replied immediately, but her attitude was very cold.

"It turned out to be the second of the three heroes of the wind and dust, disrespectful! Under Li Chunfeng. Xiao Zhuo replied. The three heroes of the wind and dust, because they don't like the affairs of the court, and they have been famous for a long time for chivalry and righteousness, and the heroic bearded guest Zhang Zhongjian is said to be extremely ugly, but his kung fu is very good, but because of this, few people have seen his true face. The second hero is the pharmacist Li Jing in front of him, I heard that he is all familiar with civil and military politics, but because of his wife, that is, Zhang Chuchen, the third hero, he is willing not to get involved in the court, and the only time is to be a guest in the Yue Guo Mansion, and it is also the first time that the broken military star is lit up, and then it is a long and indefinite dimness. In this regard, Xiao Zhuo looked at the three heroes Zhang Chuchen helplessly, she is also known as the Red Whisk Girl, she was originally a dancing girl in the mansion of Yang Su, the Duke of Yueguo, but she was actually an assassin raised by Yang Su, but later fled from the Duke of Yueguo because of the unsuccessful assassination of Yang Su. Now that she looks at it, she is indeed a beautiful woman in the world, and it is no wonder that she can attract the Broken Army Star Monarch to bend her waist for her.

Even if the general has a thousand ambitions, he is not as good as a finger hook! Xiao Zhuo sighed in his heart. The Broken Army Xingjun was originally going to make contributions to the Great Sui, but the result was ...... Ay!

"Little brother, I think your sword is not ordinary! Can you tell us where you came from? Xiao Zhuo looked at it, and Li Jing was referring to his ground.

"I don't think the origin of the two swords is ordinary! Can you tell us where you came from? Xiao Zhuo asked rhetorically. Li Jing and his wife may not recognize these two swords, but he knows them.

"This sword is called Broken Death, which was originally held by Han Baohu, one of the nine elders of the founding of my dynasty, and it was given by my uncle and father after a hundred battles." Li Jing immediately leveled the sword and put it in front of Li Chunfeng, meaning to let you watch.

"This sword is called Remnant, it was originally held by Yang Su, the Duke of Yueguo, and I stole it with my own hands when I assassinated him, and it seems that I also killed a lot of people." The tepid introduction, a felony that others are afraid of, Zhang Chuchen said that it was so commonplace, she really deserved to be a cold and glamorous woman who killed countless people. It seems that there is nothing else in this world that can move her except Li Jing.

It seems like? Xiao Zhuo chuckled in his heart. Yang Su, the Duke of Yueguo, was the minister of the Great Sui Dynasty, leading the army to fight for decades, killing the enemy in a minority, and Han Baohu died in the first emperor's year, but Yang Su did not fall until the Great Cause year, and the blood stained by the remnants can be compared!

"Little brother, if my guess is correct, this sword of yours should be held by the first emperor, right? I heard that the first emperor got this sword before he took charge of the world, because there is a pattern of "earth" on its sword grid, and the sword body is engraved with the word "汍", so it is named Di Wei. Later, Yuwen Chengdu defeated the warriors of a hundred countries, and the first emperor gave this sword and the gold medal of 'Brave and Invincible, Tianbao General', I don't know where the little brother got it? Li Jing told the story eloquently, and it seemed that he knew the origin of the earth very well.

"This sword is mine!" Who knew that after Xiao Zhuo only dropped this sentence, he walked to the guard in front of the palace gate and handed the seal to the guarding soldiers.

"It turned out that it was sent by Lord Supervisor, please!" Since Yuan Tiangang's wanted warrant had not yet arrived in Chang'an at this time, Si Tianjian's seal letter still worked.

As soon as Li Jing saw that Li Chunfeng was about to enter the palace, he also hurried over to submit the seal letter to the guards.

"It turned out to be a guest of the Li Mansion, please!" After the guards verified the token, they saw the three of them walking towards the Xuanwu Gate, and then shook their heads and sighed: "Hey! Three more who are not afraid of death. ”

What's going on? Xiao Zhuo couldn't help but wonder when he heard the guard's words, although this is the old capital, but it is also the emperor's palace, why does it seem that as long as there is a token of any family son, he can come in? Besides, he's not here to open his eyes!

"What are you doing here?" Xiao Zhuo asked Li Jingtan.

"Investigate the case! Aren't you here to investigate the case? Now Li Jing was curious.

"What's the case?" Xiao Zhuo wanted to ask again, but found that Li Jing looked at the sword on his back again, and immediately understood. "This sword was given by Yuwen Chengdu to my uncle Xiao Zhuo, and my uncle passed this sword to me before he died."

"I see." Li Jing looked suddenly enlightened. Since he is Han Baohu's nephew, he is naturally no stranger to the names of the sons of various families, and he also knows some about Xiao Zhuo's friendship with Yuwen Chengdu. So he explained the reason for Xiao Zhuo: "In the past year, people in Chang'an Palace have died violently one after another, and the people who sent living supplies to the palace have also gone one by one and have not returned, and many people left behind in Chang'an Palace have been sent to check to no avail." He entrusted the sons of various families to recommend the virtuous to investigate the case, and those who cracked the case were rewarded with 100 gold. ”

"This one!" Xiao Zhuo was noncommittal. He didn't need to investigate this case to know what the reason was, and this was also the purpose of his here. He just didn't expect that the disaster left by Yuan Tiangang at the beginning would have caused such a big impact!

"You two are also interested in this reward?" It's not that Xiao Zhuo deliberately ridiculed them, but that although their righteous brother is a little ugly, he has a lot of money, and it is no problem to support these two righteous brothers and sisters for the rest of their lives!

Li Jing also heard the meaning of his words, and said helplessly, "No matter how rich my brother-in-law is, it is also his!" Besides, if a man is full of food and drink, he must not be idle every day. ”

It seems to be really idle! Xiao Zhuo also understood! So he asked, "Have you two eaten?" ”

"Just ate it." Li Jing replied.

"Then come in!" Xiao Zhuo said, pushed open the Xuanwu Gate, and as the Xuanwu Gate was pushed open, the three of them also stepped in together. But as soon as he took three steps, the ground behind Xiao Zhuo trembled violently, and Zhang Chuchen also subconsciously shook his nose.

"Are you two going to go in?" Xiao Zhuo looked at Zhang Chuchen, and sure enough, as an assassin, she had an extraordinary sensitivity to the smell of blood.

Zhang Chuchen immediately looked at Li Jing, and it seemed that she would rarely object to Li Jing's choice.

"Enter!" Li Jing took a step forward and said.
