Chapter 404: The Show Begins

There is a saying called "the moon is dark and the wind is high and the night kills", which sounds quite exciting, and it seems that as long as this sentence describes the "scenery", it will inevitably indicate that the night is not peaceful.

But tonight, in the middle of the moon, a big and round moon hangs in the sky, and in the light of this moonlight, whether it is the sky full of stars or everything in the world, all are eclipsed, and tonight it is really not dark moon.

The wind was not right, it was a good evening, there was a slight breeze, but at best it was refreshing, not to the point where it could make people nervous.

But as long as it is related to what is going to happen tonight, such a word will naturally come to mind in their hearts, but the current scene does not correspond to this sentence, so even if there are many people who don't believe it psychologically, they still feel that tonight may be quite dangerous, but it will definitely not be bloody.

It doesn't matter if this is what these people think subconsciously.

The three teahouses around the jewelry shop near the center of the storm are already closing time, and they look dark, but if someone passes by occasionally, even a person who is slow to react can feel as if something big is brewing here.

Because most of the guests here are women, most of the people in the teahouse here are women, whether they are the shopkeepers or the guys who welcome customers, which is definitely a bit incredible in this era, but here, all this seems so normal.

Just now, these three teahouses are about to close, they are some timid women, although these looks good under Zhang Fan, but most of them reveal some cold breath People are naturally a little afraid, especially these people are so late and still don't leave, people can know at a glance that they must be plotting something, if it weren't for the fact that this is the capital, and this is not far from the inner city, and the official inspection is relatively ordinary, these people would have gone to report to the official.

But in the end, someone still came up, politely and politely told these people that the time was not early, in fact, they were here to catch people, but when they saw the appearance of one by one, they no longer dared to speak out, and they couldn't go if they wanted to, and when they arrived at the door, they found that there were people guarding the door of their shop, so they could only hide in the teahouse, feel sorry for themselves, and then hide in the kitchen and pray to the Buddha that the disaster would not befall them.

This is just the frightened appearance of some ordinary people who have nothing to do with this matter at this time, but it can also be reversed, the storm that is about to start has not yet been set off, and these people who have nothing to do with this matter have already been made into this appearance, so it can be seen that when the meeting really opens, what will it look like.

Zhang Fan was in this short period of time, but it seemed that he had waited for an unknown amount of time, not only Zhang Fan, but also these people under him, were also nervous, and even in that jewelry shop, their target, although they didn't know the other party's thoughts, but they knew that the other party would never feel better, and even more nervous than them.

Liang Chao on the side of "Adult ......" seemed to feel that Zhang Fan was too nervous now, and wanted to relieve himself, so he couldn't help but say, "Your Excellency asked Li Yang to take the brothers to arrest these people, isn't it ......?"

"What," Zhang Fan glanced at him and said with interest, "Are you worried about him?"

"Yes," Liang Chao didn't say anything euphemistic, and said straightforwardly, "The humble position is that he is a little uneasy about him, Li Yang made his debut halfway and joined the command of the adult, if you want to say this kind of person, there are many of us in the brocade guard, and it is not for nothing that there are people who can get such a high position, but Li Yang has only been in for less than a year, and the adults have become so reliant on him, and regardless of whether this is a little too impatient, even the brothers below are not too relieved."

"Moreover, Li Yang is a member of the Five Poisons Sect, he came to trouble the adults at the beginning, if he really talks about it, he also served the orders of the adults at the beginning, and took people to kill many of his subordinates, speaking of which, Li Yang should hate us very much, but at the beginning, when the adults asked him to join us, he only thought about it a little, and agreed to it.

"My lord, this person who walks the rivers and lakes, especially a person like Li Yang who has walked the rivers and lakes for decades, can win a hall master in the Five Poisons Sect, relying not only on ability, but also on the righteousness of the rivers and lakes, if a person who walks the rivers and lakes does not pay attention to righteousness, I am afraid that he will not be able to stay for even a day, and I don't know how many people have been stabbed in the back,"

Listening to what Liang Chao said to himself, Zhang Fan couldn't help but become curious, and then asked, "What do you want to say?"

Liang Chao saw Zhang Fan asking him, and did not answer immediately, but asked rhetorically, "Do you remember the scene when you recruited Liyang?"

Faced with Liang Chao's question, Zhang Fan still didn't know what he wanted to express.

"I still remember the lowly position," Liang Chao said, "At that time, the lord persuaded Li Yang to go here, at that time, although Li Yang's face also had a hesitant and struggling look, but he didn't stay long, and immediately agreed to the adult's request, maybe in the eyes of the adult, there was no problem with this, and even at that time, the humble duty didn't think much about it, but a few days ago, I heard some of the brothers below complaining, which made the humble duty notice this matter, and now the humble duty really feels wrong when I think about it in my heart." ,”

"You mean, you don't trust Li Yang much now," Zhang Fan asked, "I think it's a bit appropriate for me to let him take someone to get someone this time,"

"No, the adults have misunderstood the meaning of humility," Liang Chao saw Zhang Fan say this, and quickly denied it, "The meaning of humility is that this person, knowing people and knowing faces, but not knowing his heart, even if the adults trust him so much and give him such an important thing to do, but he may not be able to trust the adults so much, it's not that he is too worried about the humiliation, it's just that the so-called 'defense is indispensable', and the adults should still keep an eye on him."

"Liang Chao," listening to his words, not only did he not feel anything serious, but he also showed a relaxed look, and said to Liang Chao with a smile, "I still remember that I was not worried about Liyang, and this should have been solved a long time ago, but it has been dragged on for half a year, and I have never gone to him, as a result, I still dispelled the doubts in my heart about facing Liyang, asked him to come over to recognize people, and asked him to take the brothers to get people today, all of which are because of someone's sentence 'Employing people without suspicion, Suspicious don't need to,'

Seeing that Zhang Fan finished saying this, he looked at himself with a smile on his face, Liang Chao's rather handsome face gradually turned red, yes, it was Liang Chao himself who said this sentence to Zhang Fan at the beginning, "Don't doubt people, don't suspect people", it was Liang Chao himself, and she naturally won't forget this.

But Liang Chao himself understood in his heart that the reason why he said this at the beginning was all because the situation at that time had lasted for half a year, since Zhang Fan became the commander of the Jinyi Guard, he was very good to his subordinates, especially Wang Meng and him Liang Chao, Wang Meng is a conscientious person, and he never asks too much about the rewards and punishments of the Shangguan, but Liang Chao is different, although he is a gentleman, but in fact, he is still very emotional in his heart, for Zhang Fan, the Shangguan who has made him rise a lot in a short period of time, He is still very concerned.

Therefore, when he saw Zhang Fan so annoyed, he said this, but Liang Chao felt that Zhang Fan at this time obviously misunderstood him, or Zhang Fan pretended to be confused, and his original sentence "Don't doubt people, don't use suspicious people" was indeed aimed at Li Yang, but he just pointed out that Li Yang should recognize people, and he didn't say anything else.

But Zhang Fan said this now, I don't know if he was intentional or unintentional, obviously misinterpreted Liang Chao's meaning, but even so, now Liang Chao was still speechless in the face of Zhang Fan, and he didn't know what to say at all, so he could refute Zhang Fan.

Zhang Fan saw Liang Chao's puzzled face now, smiled slightly, and didn't pay much attention to this matter anymore.

However, regardless of whether Liang Chao's words just now made Zhang Fan have any plans, at least the atmosphere here is really a little lighter now.

Zhang Fan continued to look at the situation below, now, the time is much later, there are almost no people on the whole street, if it is on weekdays, there will be some people who fight the shift here, but because of today's special situation, the exits at both ends of this street, even including the places in the alleys that can lead to other streets, are all guarded by Jinyiwei's men and horses, and anyone who approaches here, whether intentionally or unintentionally, will be forced to let them detour, except for one person, this street tonight, No stranger could come in or go out.

Now the jewelry shop is still as dark as if there is no one, there is no movement at all, and it is also the same pitch black around it, but Zhang Fan understands psychologically that among these unseen black shadows, there are many people hiding themselves, in other words, this is only the goal of giving to people, but it seems to be too small to exclude nearly ten times the number of people to arrest, but this seems to be the tradition of the Central Plains.

Finally......

"My lord......," Wang Meng on the side said softly.

Hearing Wang Meng's voice, Zhang Fan understood that it was time, and he immediately tried to look over there, but saw that it was still pitch black, and he couldn't see anything at all.

Zhang Fan was a little disappointed, thinking that Wang Meng had mistaken it for a while, the clouds in the sky that had just blocked the moonlight floated away, and the silver moonlight suddenly poured down, making it look exceptionally bright in this dark night.

By the moonlight, Zhang Fan could clearly see that there was a flickering figure in the backyard of the jewelry shop, and on the street, Zhang Fan's own people also began to move.

In an instant, the atmosphere became extremely tense, and everyone present knew that the show was about to begin.
