Chongren Fang is in the east of Daming Palace, and its correspondence is Buzheng Fang.

Ma Yuanzhen lived in Chongrenfang, while Qiu Shiliang lived in Buzheng Fang.

It seems to be a deliberate arrangement by God, and the two powerful eunuchs standing at the peak of the power of the Tang Empire are separated from each other in this way, which also indicates that the battlefield between the two is in the Daming Palace in this crack.

......

Qiu Shiliang is indeed sick, but his illness has never been in the body.

It's in the heart.

In the Qiu Mansion, the old man lying on the sickbed looked dying, but he never forgot one thing.

That is, I have been lying here for half a year.

Lying on the couch for half a year, Qiu Shiliang looked really sick, only in the dead of night, Qiu Shiliang would sit up from the couch, and then move his muscles and bones in the room a little, and because of this, he was not contaminated with a bad disease because of lying down for a long time.

After all, for an old man who is over the age of six, lying on the couch for a long time is never a good thing, although he is now "sick", but he doesn't want to be really sick.

However, today's Qiu Shiliang got up earlier, and he was already dressed in the dark sky, and even sat in front of the bookcase and picked up the bamboo pen that he had not touched for half a year.

Wang Zongshi's case forced Qiu Shiliang to take action at the risk of being exposed, and although he knew that the odds of rescuing Wang Zongshi were pitiful, he still needed to do something.

At this point, Wang Zongshi's life and death may have become less important, what matters is everything that he has worked hard to manage, and he must not be a wedding dress for others.

Therefore, Qiu Shiliang decided to fight back.

......

Shanhefang, located on the west side of Zhuque Street, adjacent to Taipingfang, opposite it is Daming Palace, and within the palace wall is Honglu Temple, known as the residence of dignitaries, only in this dynasty there are three Zaifu living in it, which shows the superiority of its location.

However, Yan Heng was not impressed by this.

"I didn't expect it to be so shabby here!"

Yan Heng looked at a courtyard on the southeast side of the square and sighed, his face full of disappointment.

Today is the first day when Yan Heng, the youngest bad handsome in history, took office, because the bad handsome officials are not in the product, so Yan Heng does not have any standard official uniforms, and even except for the white jade handsome charm given by Li Chen, he does not even have anything to prove his identity.

And the public hall and yamen, which were originally thought to be a luxurious place, were now shattered in an instant with the courtyard in front of them, which could only be called spacious.

After lamenting, Yan Heng looked a little depressed, but the matter has come to this, he can only accept this reality, and then push the door in, and what catches his eye is a goose wing shadow wall, which is carved with a picture of crane and deer in the same spring, this Xiao wall alone is enough to show that the previous owner of this house must be either rich or expensive.

Qiang –

With a crisp metallic sound, Yan Heng only felt two white lights flash in front of him, and then subconsciously lowered himself to avoid it, and at the same time took out the sword at his waist, raised the sword and stabbed it away.

Although Yan Heng has practiced martial arts with Yan Shuo since he was a child, he is mostly a fighting skill on the battlefield, and he uses knives, bows, lances, guns and other soldiers' blades, and is not good at using swords.

After the sword failed, the two black-clothed swordsmen surrounded Yan Heng one after the other, but they saw Yan Heng's long sword stabbing at him, and the swordsman in front was busy swinging his sword to block, and at the same time, the swordsman in the back lunged and bullied him, only for a moment, Yan Heng only felt a cold neck, and when he looked down again, a long sword had already been placed on his shoulder.

"Who are you?!" The swordsman in the rear asked coldly.

Yan Heng didn't speak, and stretched out his hand to throw the imperial talisman over.

The swordsman took it steadily, his face changed slightly, and then he withdrew his long sword, and saluted with his crossed hands: "My subordinates have seen bad handsomeness!" ”

The swordsman in front of him was also stunned when he heard this, and then hurriedly saluted and said, "My subordinates don't know, and I hope that the bad handsome will forgive me!" ”

Hearing this, Yan Heng put the long sword into the sheath with palpitations, and then helped the two of them up, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's also because I didn't tell me in advance, which caused this misunderstanding!" ”

"Yesterday, His Majesty sent someone to send a message that there will be a bad handsome man in the near future, but the subordinates didn't expect you to come so quickly!" A black-clad swordsman said.

Yan Heng nodded, then looked around the courtyard, and said in surprise: "Why is it only the two of you?" ”

One of the black-clothed swordsmen said with a smile: "You are new to the city, I'm afraid you don't know much about the bad door, this is a place for bad people to settle down in Chang'an, if there is nothing important on weekdays, there are only three guards on standby, if Your Majesty has an errand to do, the subordinates will notify the corresponding battalions!" ”

"Three? What about the other one? Yan Heng asked.

"Bad handsome, he was originally from Lantian County, Gyeonggi, but because he missed his wife for a long time, his subordinates let him go back privately, and he will be back early tomorrow morning, I hope you will forgive your sins!"

Yan Heng nodded and said, "It's okay, it's not an unsightly thing to go back to my hometown to visit my mother, there are not so many rules here, but I need to know about it in the future!" ”

The two nodded in agreement when they heard this, and then led Yan Heng to the depths of the courtyard.

Bypass the Xiao wall, it is a hand-copying verandah, after entering the hanging flower door, it is the main courtyard, the center is facing the main house of four openings, the two sides are the east and west ear rooms, there are three pots of pine and cypress bonsai on both sides of the courtyard, and after the bonsai, there are three wings respectively.

"Are these rooms empty?" Yan Heng asked casually.

"It's empty on weekdays, but if the brothers from each battalion come, it's still a little insufficient!"

"How many of us are there?" Yan Heng asked again.

"There are a total of 3,000 people registered, but there are less than a hundred people around Chang'an City, most of the brothers are scattered in various states and counties, hiding their identities, if there is an errand, someone will inform them!"

"Registered? Could it be that there are still those who are not registered? Yan Heng was a little puzzled.

"Yes, the need for the replacement of the old and the new, the new must have a three-year examination period, and naturally cannot be naturalized during the examination period! There are a total of 6,000 newcomers during the examination period of this dynasty, but in the end, there are less than 300 people who can enter my bad door, so although we are recruiting newcomers every year, it is also a little green now! ”

Yan Heng nodded when he heard this, the bad people are directly under the jurisdiction of the Son of Heaven, and the things they do are also extremely secretive, so it is natural to be stricter in accepting newcomers.

After entering the main room, the two led Yan Heng to the upper seat, and a swordsman continued: "There is a small courtyard behind the main room, the former bad marshal built a courtyard, the environment is clean and comfortable, you can rest in the cover room on weekdays!" ”

"Ex? But Uncle Xiao? ”

Prior to this, Li Zhen had already told Yan Heng of Xiao Liang's identity, so Yan Heng naturally knew something.

"Uncle Xiao?" The two were slightly stunned when they heard this.

"Hehe, it's Xiao Zhongli, the sword of the world, he is the dear person of one of my brothers, and he also instructed me how many sword moves when I was in Jiangling Mansion!"

Yan Heng said with a smile, obviously the latter sentence is somewhat watery, how can Xiao Liang's temperament casually point out others, even Li Zhen has only learned one style of swordsmanship.

But Yan Heng's words made the two of them stunned, Xiao Zhongli's name is like a legend for all bad people, since it is a legendary character, then it is a person who has no chance to see it, and now Yan Heng is actually called Uncle Xiao, obviously the relationship between the two is not trivial, as for the "brother" in his mouth, he is even more very human.

"The subordinate dares to ask ...... brother of yours."
