She was a little vigilant in her heart, and she didn't dare to open the door at will, so she quickly approached the room and put down the bowl, and said in a low voice to Lu Qingchen on the couch, "Someone knocked on the door, could it be that you called Jiusheng?" ”

The corners of Lu Qingchen's mouth drooped with a smile, this private house is extremely hidden, except for Helian, Jiusheng and the two of them at the moment, no one knows, yesterday he arranged for Jiusheng to go out of the city to do errands, at this time he should not have come back, how could anyone knock on the door?

I'm afraid that the person who came is not good, thinking of this, his expression instantly turned cold, a dangerous dark tide surged in his dark eyes, and he said in a cold tone, "You stay in the house first, I'll go and see who it is." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the long sword on the table and walked out of the door, Mu Yunge also took a pair of scissors in his hand when he saw this, and followed closely behind, Helian had also come out of the kitchen at this time, staring at the red door with a vigilant face, the three of them stood in the courtyard and exchanged glances, their expressions were very serious, and at this moment, the knock on the door sounded again.

"Who?" Hollene deliberately lowered her voice so that it sounded like an elderly woman.

There was silence outside the door for a moment before a neutral male voice came.

"Xu Zhou."

Mu Yunge never expected that Xu Zhou would come directly to the capital, and he was dragging Li Geng, who had just escaped from them yesterday.

"How could he be in your hands?" Mu Yunge looked at Li Geng, who was dying, and his tone was very surprised.

Xu Zhou glanced coldly behind him when he heard this, waved his hand and asked his subordinates to disguise themselves as vegetable farmers, and threw the unconscious person to the ground at this time, looked at Li Geng with lowered eyes, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, as if he was smiling but not smiling, and his expression was full of ruthlessness, "The Li Geng you mentioned in the letter, Yan Luotang had contact before, so I barely recognized it, and I rushed over directly when I received the flying pigeon message. ”

After saying this, he hesitated slightly, slowly raised his eyes and asked, "The woman you found is ...... Where is the body? ”

Because it happened too suddenly, the woman's body was still placed in the yamen, and it was not sent to Yizhuang in time, so several people rushed back to the yamen directly, and Lu Qingchen took Li Geng into prison for personal interrogation, leaving Mu Yunge and Xu Zhou to see the body.

Sure enough, this woman is the person Xu Zhou has been looking for for many years, as soon as he saw the corpse, the smiling face that had been hanging all the time froze on his face, and it turned into sadness little by little, he opened his mouth but seemed to be speechless, and the hand hanging by his side kept clenching into a fist and then released, as if he was suppressing something.

Mu Yunge was not sluggish, and vaguely guessed the relationship between the two, so he didn't ask questions, just stood quietly aside, and let him adjust his emotions.

The sad atmosphere didn't last long, Xu Zhou stood for a long time, raised his head and exhaled a deep breath, then looked back at Mu Yunge, "You found her for me, Xu is grateful, I know that you are looking for the mastermind behind the scenes right now, how about I cooperate with the two of you?" ”

"Cooperation?" Mu Yunge was slightly surprised, Yan Luotang's power was all over the place, and it was much easier to do anything he wanted, why did he want to cooperate with the people of the government?

Xu Zhou saw her confusion and laughed lightly, but this smile was different from the vanity and grievances in ordinary days, and it contained a little sadness, "Although I am the helmsman of Yama Luotang, I am just a person in the rivers and lakes, which involves a lot of filth in the court, and I can't avenge her with Yama Luotang." ”

It turned out that the woman's name was Mei Niang, she was originally the daughter of the county commander of a county in Lingguo, with a gentle personality, full of poetry and books, like a talented girl, Xu Zhou at that time was just the son of an ordinary family, and he was not as famous as he is now.

Because the two families live next to each other, they grew up together as childhood sweethearts, and their relationship is very good, and they also made an agreement to get married when Mei Niang and Lu were married. Xu Zhou knew that she would be his bride since he was a child, so he secretly vowed in his heart that he would protect her well for the rest of his life, so he learned a good martial arts.

The days passed, Mei Niang was finally about to make time, which meant that their happy day was coming, Xu Zhou was naturally full of joy, counting down the days with his fingers every day, but he didn't expect that disasters would come much faster than happiness.

On the eve of the wedding, a large number of officers and soldiers came to Mei Niang's house, and they arrested the old, young, women and children in the house with a solemn face, and the leader said lightly that the county order had committed the crime of corruption, and killed him on the spot, and raided his house overnight.

When Xu Zhou heard the news, he ignored the dissuasion of his family and went to prison alone, so he rescued Mei Niang from danger, and the two began to live on the run.

They fled for two days in fear, and they were very embarrassed. At this moment, a man came to the door, claiming to be the master of the Yama Hall, expressing his desire to take him under his command.

The hall master took them away, and Xu Zhou became more and more prosperous in Yan Luo Hall, thinking that if he was strong, he could take care of Mei Niang in his wings, but who knew that she was unwilling, so she left a letter and quietly slipped away.

At that time, he was not as famous as he was at this time in Yan Luotang, so he had no ability to get Mei Niang back, the two of them were separated from each other from then on, Xu Zhou had no news of her, in order to get people back, he climbed all the way to become the captain of Team C, but he still missed the opportunity and never saw her again.

Mu Yunge didn't expect that there would be so much inside information in this, and after listening to the story of the two, he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, everyone said that Xu Zhou was ruthless, but who knew that he was so affectionate?

"At the beginning, Mei Niang's family suddenly suffered a catastrophe, and I have investigated some hidden secrets over the years, but sadly she has died tragically at the hands of others, and I will not stop there." Xu Zhou's eyes were slightly red, and it was difficult to hide the sadness in his tone, and he looked at her fixedly, "Miss Yun, I hope you will think about my proposal." ”

Mu Yunge also had mixed feelings in her heart when she heard this, but this matter was not trivial, she couldn't make a decision on her own, she lowered her eyes and considered it for a while before she spoke, "Can you let me discuss this matter with Lu Qingchen?" ”

"Naturally, Xu is here to wait for good news."

When the two returned to the room where Mei Niang's body was parked, Xu Zhou had returned to his usual appearance, with a faint smile on his face, but his eyes were still slightly red.

"How's the two of you going?" When Xu Zhou saw them enter the house, he didn't say much else, and asked directly.

Lu Qingchen saw that although he didn't show it on his face, he was so anxious about this matter, and most of the worries in his heart were dispelled, and he immediately said, "It is naturally our honor to be able to cooperate with Lord Xu, but we still have to trouble Brother Xiao." ”
