Under the rule of Emperor Ren, the capital Luoyang market was prosperous, just a few corrupt officials were pushed out and beheaded, the people threw rotten vegetable leaves on the prisoner car, only to see the corrupt officials blood splashed vegetable market, the masses retreated, laughed and scolded, and who remembered the name of the corrupt official who had just died was once a corrupt official who was a party to the disaster.

Not long ago, they were also powerful and blessed in the local area, and they were beautiful, and their wives and concubines and heirs were under their protection, and they were noble in front of the people.

But as soon as their heads hit the ground, the past scenery became a thing of the past, their property was confiscated, and their wives and concubines became untouchables.

Emperor Zhao Ce is not a tyrant, he will not arrest and kill all corrupt officials, but what is the use of keeping corrupt and incompetent officials? If the only use value is to "punish without teaching, in order to set an example".

In a tavern in Sanhui Lane, Nanshi, business is booming, on the seat in the corner, a man in his thirties with a sword is tasting fine wine alone, he only drinks in small sips, not that he is not good at drinking, nor that his personality is not bold enough, but he doesn't want to drink and make mistakes.

"Xiao Er, send a plate of sauced beef and a plate of broad beans to that master."

"Okay!"

The shopkeeper quickly gave the swordsman two dishes, and the swordsman turned his head to look at the person who delivered the dishes.

The cattle of the Liang Dynasty were not allowed to be slaughtered casually, and only those who died of illness or old age could be reported to the officials and eaten, even if they could be bought on the market, the price was not low.

This man's generous hand couldn't help but make the swordsman look twice.

I didn't know, I didn't speak, I just nodded at the man.

The person who delivered the food was also a swordsman, wearing brocade clothes, with an extraordinary bearing, at first glance, it looked like an official body, even if it was not an official body, it was also a domestic swordsman of a super wealthy family, although these people were also subordinates, but their status was transcendent, highly respected, and they had lived in a high door for a long time, so as to develop a special temperament.

Cao Feihu guessed correctly, the person who sent him the food was not someone else, it was Ji Yifa, the Jiupin swordsman, who used to be the righteous son of the Ximen family, lived in Gaomen for a long time, and is now the head of the Queen Mother's secret Jinwei, directly responsible for the Queen Mother's henchman Lao Mink Temple Liwantang, in the land of the Liang Dynasty, no matter where he goes, it is unimpeded.

Cao Feihu continued to drink alone, eat meat, and eat broad beans.

Ji Yifa also drank alone, ate meat, and ate broad beans.

Although they were not at the same table, the corners of their eyes were looking at each other.

After drinking half a pot of wine, Cao Feihu got up and wanted to settle the money for this pot of wine, Ji Yifa stood up and said, "You don't have to settle the account, let's go upstairs and sit down, how about it?" ”

"It's not convenient to have something to do."

"Cao Jian enters Beijing, what can he do?"

Cao Feihu was stunned: "How do you know me?" How did you know I was coming to the capital? ”

Ji Yifa smiled and said: "The sky has changed, the killer group is no longer the original killer group, and the North Green Forest is not the North Green Forest as before." ”

Cao Feihu snorted coldly: "You mean to say that someone in the Northern Green Forest betrayed me?" ”

Ji Yifa said: "Yes and no, someone told me your whereabouts, but don't be careful, the reason why he told me your whereabouts is not to let me be unfavorable to you, but to persuade you to leave, as long as you are willing to appreciate your face, no matter what you are here to do in Beijing, you can write it off." ”

"I'm sorry, but it's hard to follow your wishes." Cao Feihu said coldly.

"Don't you want to know who I am?" Ji Yifa lowered his head slightly, and his gaze became cold.

"Since you dare to come to see me alone and call out my surname, you are naturally not an ordinary person. If you want to stop me, it's easy, come, kill me. ”

Cao Feihu's sword was unsheathed, and a cold light went straight towards Ji.

The sword is like lightning.

Ji jumped suddenly, drew his sword in the air, stabbed backhand, and the two swords collided, a string of sparks.

didn't wait for Ji Yifa to land, Cao Feihu's second sword was already pointed at the former's knee, Ji Yifa secretly said that it was not good, gave up dodging, and simply stabbed Cao Feihu in the back of the head with a sword, this is a life-fighting move, you hurt my knee, I stab you in the head.

Cao Feihu expected that Ji would fight for his life, this sword did not make him old, he exerted force under his feet, turned his body, jumped up, and when he was in the air, a dart in his hand went straight to Ji Yifa's neck, Ji Yifa was short and short, and he dodged the vital point, and the dart was inserted into the black gauze head.

Sword, stopped.

Between the electric light and flint, the judgment is made.

"Are you still fighting?" Cao Feihu asked coldly.

"I can't stop you." Ji Yifa reached out and took off the dart, looked at it, it was non-toxic, and put it in his pocket: "Keep it as a souvenir." ”

"Farewell!" Cao Feihu is leaving.

"I advise you, there are two places you can't go." Ji Yifa gritted his teeth and said.

"Tell me about it." Cao Feihu stood still.

"You can't go to the palace."

"I have no interest in the palace. What about the other place? ”

"You can't go to the Meritorious Workshop, I think you also know that the Meritorious Workshop is the former Fucheng Workshop."

Cao Feihu paused for a long time, then suddenly turned around, "I'm not here to kill. ”

Ji Yi smiled with relief, "In that case, please tell me about you, and I will help you do it, as long as you leave the capital." ”

"Lin Qiao'er's father is Lin Dascar, the son of the general scoop of Beilvlin, and Lin Dascar is my father-in-law, Qiao'er was raised by me since I was a child, she died unexplained, I want to find out." Cao Feihu's heart was very painful, but his face was still cold.

Through conversation, Ji Yifa determined that Cao Feihu was going to the Meritorious Workshop, but the people living in the meritorious workshop were the families of important officials of the imperial court, especially the families of those generals, and there must be no problems, if they were held hostage, the consequences would be unimaginable, and it would also chill the hearts of the generals.

"Okay, I can help you check, please trust me, I will definitely check for you more comprehensively than you, if I can't get clues, I believe you can't get it either." Ji Yi said.

"Who are you?"

"Secret Jin Wei Zhonglang will be Ji Yifa."

"General Secret Jinwei Zhonglang?" Cao Feihu didn't expect the level of the person who greeted him to be so high, "Okay, I believe in you, I'll give you ten days, I'll wait for your news in Shili Pavilion in the east of the city, if you don't do well, I will come to check in person." ”。

Ji shook the sleeves of his robe, and said proudly: "I still advise you, don't underestimate our secret Jinwei." This time, since we can talk to you here, we haven't done a dead deal to you, but we're just going to open up to you. After ten days, no matter whether I find the real culprit or not, you will not be able to enter the capital again. If you don't listen to the persuasion, I'm not the only one who will greet you. You Cao Feihu are heroic and courageous, but can you carry a few Ji Yifa alone? ”

"I, Cao Feihu, have never been afraid of threats, and anyone's threats to me often become the motivation for me to complete." Cao Feihu sneered and walked away.
