Chapter 991: Fornication and Thieves
Liu Xiu looked at Luo You and said with a smile: "Whether the other party is not good at coming, you will know if you try it." ”
At Liu Xiu's suggestion, several of them went down the main street and walked into a quiet alley.
Halfway down the alley, they turned into an empty alley.
As they were walking forward, they suddenly came to see five big men in shape, all of them loosely dressed and flowing, and at a glance they knew that they were not good people.
At the same time, five big men also appeared behind them, blocking their retreat.
"Alright, don't go!"
A big man led by the front stood in the middle of the alley, pinched his waist with both hands, and looked at Liu Xiu and the others from one look at the other.
After looking at Liu Xiu and his entourage, the old god of the Han Dynasty led by him asked on the spot: "Just now, it was a few of you who spread rumors in the wine house, saying that the general of Xizhou had taken refuge in Gongsun Shu and damaged Longdao?" ”
Hearing this, Luo You stepped forward and said, "What I said is the truth!" ”
"The hairy boy who has not dried up dares to run to Lao Tzu's land and speak out?"
Seeing that Luo You was just a half-grown child, the eldest Han Dunsheng led by him was contemptuous, but Luo You's outstanding appearance made him look at it a few more times.
This young man looks really pink, with beautiful eyebrows, a pair of big black eyes full of agility, white and delicate skin, and he seems to be able to catch water when he pinched it.
The big man led by him couldn't help but snort twice, and said with a smile: "It's a pity, it's not a girl, but in this Chang'an City, there are also many people who are kind to you, if you sell it to the Lingren Pavilion, it is estimated that it can be sold for a big price!" ”
The Servant House is a men's brothel, and the people inside are young and beautiful young people.
Luo You listened to the other party's words, his face turned red with anger, he glared at the other party angrily, and held back for a long time before he spit out four words: "Shameless!" Dirty! ”
The big man led by him sneered, walked towards Luo You, and when Luo You approached, he reached out and grabbed Luo You's shirt as if no one was around, and said at the same time: "Boy, I'll let you know in the Lingren Pavilion tonight, what is shameless and obscene!" ”
Dahan didn't take Luo You seriously at all, thinking that taking her down was just a matter of getting caught.
But before his hand touched Luo You's body, he suddenly felt a flower in front of him, Luo You was like a loach, drilled under his armpit, flashed to his back, and kicked his ass.
The big man snorted and threw himself forward.
In the ear chakra, a pop was heard, and the big man led by him fell to the ground solidly.
He lay there, his face still dazed, and his eyes were still sloppy.
After a while, he came back to his senses, covered his ass with one hand, and howled loudly at the big men around him, "What are you waiting for?
Give it to me! ”
Liu Xiu and the others would not take these gangsters in their eyes, they didn't need Liu Xiu and Luo You to make a move, just Long Yuan and Xuying, one in front and one behind, didn't even use it for half a minute, and the four big men in front and the five big men in the back had all fallen to the ground.
People staggered to and fro on the ground.
The big man at the head was about to get up from the ground, but he could see the surrounding situation clearly, and his figure that was halfway up suddenly stiffened, and he was dumbfounded and maintained a half-unable posture.
He never expected that these people who were dressed very ordinarily would be so powerful, but in an instant, the nine brothers he brought were all beaten down by them, and what was even more terrifying was that from beginning to end, only two people were shooting.
Realizing that he had provoked hard stubble, the big man led by him slowly stood up, his back against the wall on the side of the alley, and rubbed back little by little, wanting to run away.
At this time, Luo Youjian stepped in front of him, wrapped his arms around him, and asked in a cold voice, "Where do you want to go?" ”
Her words shook the big man's body, and then, he knelt on the ground with a puff and stammered: "Daxia spare his life!" Heroes spare your lives! The little ones have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, offending all the heroes, please let the small ones go......" Liu Xiu walked over, looked at the big man who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and asked, "Why are you following us?" ”
Dahan hurriedly explained: "The little ones don't look like locals, so they have bad thoughts and want to grab a few money to spend, they are small ghosts, and they are small ones who don't know Taishan...... "Before he finished speaking, Liu Xiu raised his chin to Long Yuan on the side.
Long Yuan didn't say a word, he took out the hidden sword from the placket, he walked to the big man with the sword, put the blade of the sword against his neck, and said gloomily: "If you don't tell the truth, you can't blame others for your death!" ”
As he spoke, he made a gesture to stab his sword down.
The big man led by him was so frightened that the three souls and seven spirits were about to fly out of the body, he screamed, hurriedly kowtowed forward again and again, and stammered: "It was Mr. Zhong who asked us to do this, and it was Mr. Zhong who instructed the little ones to do this!" ”
"Who is Mr. Chung?
Make it clear! ”
Liu Xiu said in a deep voice.
Dahan raised his head, looked at Liu Xiu, Long Yuan and the others in horror, and told the truth of the matter one by one.
The Mr. Zhong he said, named Zhong Qi, is the biggest snake in Chang'an City.
But all the ruffians and gangsters who mix in Chang'an will give Mr. Zhong some face.
Some time ago, for some reason, Zhong Qi gathered these local snakes together and asked them to go to the wine houses, tea houses, bazaars and other places in the city to spread the word 'Kui Huan did not take refuge in Gongsun Shu', 'The reason why the imperial court sent troops to fight against Kui Huan was completely because he was afraid of Kui Huan's strength and was a cruel act of loyalty' and so on.
If anyone dares to contradict them, they don't need to pay attention to it at the time, but they can secretly find a place where no one is there to teach them a lesson.
This time, they were spreading Zhong Qi's confession in the tavern, but Luo You stood up to refute it, they wanted to teach Luo You a lesson, but when they thought of Zhong Qi's explanation, they gave up.
When Liu Xiu and Luo You left the wine house, they quietly followed behind, waiting for the opportunity to move, and after that, it was these things that happened in the alley.
After listening to his story, Liu Xiumo rubbed his chin and asked, "This Zhong Qi you are talking about, does he know Kui Huan?" ”
The big man looked dazed, shook his head and said, "The little one, the little one doesn't know!" At...... In my small impression, Mr. Zhong doesn't seem to have much contact with Kui Huan. ”
Liu Xiu suddenly bent down, approached the big man, stared intently into his eyes, and asked word by word, "You didn't lie?" ”
The big man was taken aback by Liu Xiu's sudden approach, and said repeatedly: "The little one doesn't dare, the little one doesn't dare to lie in front of the hero...... "Let's go!" ”
"Huh?"
"I said, you can all go!"
Liu Xiu waved his hand, suddenly thought of something, and said: "However, I also want to warn you, don't follow Zhong Qi's instructions in the future, otherwise, there will be suspicion of fornication and rebellion!" ”
His words made the big man at the head tremble, and the figure that had just stood up knelt back on the ground, frightened.
He said in a trembling voice, "Little one...... The little one didn't rebel, and it ...... There has never been an adultery and a thief, the conscience of heaven and earth, the little one really didn't rebel......" Liu Xiu said with a sinking face: "Help Zhong Qi and spread rumors that are unfavorable to the court, it's not a rebellion, what is it?"
Let's stop here, if you continue to do this in the future, not only will you not be able to eat and walk around, but the whole family will suffer with you! ”
"Yes, yes, yes! The little one is written down! The little ones are all written down! Small...... The little one will not participate in this matter in the future......" Liu Xiu didn't say anything more, shook his head at Long Yuan and the others, and walked out.
Watching them leave home, the big man led by him held on to the wall and slowly stood up, and at the same time, he couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.
He leaned against the wall and gasped for breath, feeling his clothes soaked with sweat.
He glanced at the people on the ground and shouted angrily, "Get out! Get out of here! Aren't you quite capable on weekdays?
Where are your abilities now?
Fuck, what a bunch of rice buckets! ”
Let's say that Liu Xiu and his party got out of the alley, and Long Yuan asked in a low voice: "Childe, are we still going to the north of the city?" ”
Looking at it now, Chang'an City is not peaceful, and it may even be more dangerous than Luoyang.
Liu Xiu shrugged his shoulders and said disappreciatively: "Of course I want to go!" I haven't been to the market in the north of the city yet! ”
Xu Ying answered: "Childe, this Zhong Qi is not simple, controlling the head snake of Chang'an, spreading remarks that are unfavorable to the imperial court, I think this person, nine times out of ten, was bought by Kui Huan." ”
Liu Xiu nodded, and it was very likely that Xu Ying said.
He pondered for a moment, the corners of his mouth hooked, smiled, and said, "It seems that we should go to Jingzhao Mansion first!" ”
Jingzhao Mansion is located in the center of Chang'an City, from the south of the city to the north of the city, and also happens to pass by Jingzhao Mansion.
Hearing that it was Long Yuan, the personal guard beside the Son of Heaven, who asked to see him, Jing Zhaoyin dared to be lazy, and hurriedly went out of the house to greet him.
When he saw Long Yuan, he also saw Liu Xiu standing beside Long Yuan.
Jing Zhaoyin's body trembled, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly stepped forward, just about to salute Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu took the first step, held Jing Zhaoyin's arm, and said with a smile: "Jing Zhaoyin doesn't have to be polite, let's enter the house and talk!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Inside please! Inside please! ”
Jing Zhaoyin invited Liu Xiu and his party into the mansion, and in the lobby, he wanted Liu Xiu to sit on the main seat in the center, but Liu Xiu refused and walked to the side and sat down.
Jing Zhaoyin waved his hand to the entourage around him and said, "Let's all go down!" ”
Everyone bowed in unison and exited the lobby.
After they left, Jing Zhaoyin stood up, knelt down and kowtowed to Liu Xiu in a proper manner, and said, "Weichen see Your Majesty!" ”
Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, "Jing Zhaoyin, please get up." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"I came to Jingzhao Mansion today mainly to inquire about someone."
"I wonder who Your Majesty wants to inquire about?"
"Zhong Qi."
"Zhong Qi......" Jing Zhaoyin, as the highest magistrate of Chang'an, is certainly no stranger to the largest local snake.
He asked in a whisper, "I don't know...... I don't know why His Majesty suddenly asked Zhong Qi...... "How is he?"
And how much do you know about him? ”
"Wechen didn't dare to deceive Your Majesty, when Wechen hadn't been transferred to Jingzhaoyin, Zhong Qi was already the most powerful and powerful snake on the ground in Chang'an.
It is said that when the Red Eyebrow Army evacuated Chang'an, the city of Chang'an had been destroyed to a mess, and it was Zhong Qi who led a group of people to enter Chang'an first to repair the damaged buildings, and then later, more and more people came to Chang'an, and they followed Zhong Qi to repair the buildings in the city.
Zhong Qi also won a lot of respect and love in Chang'an, when Jingzhao Mansion was still closed, if there were contradictions and disputes in Chang'an City, people would go to Zhong Qi to judge, and Zhong Qi's judgment could always be convincing to the public. ”
"So," Liu Xiu continued, "Before the imperial court entered Chang'an, this Zhong Qi seemed to have become Jing Zhaoyin in Chang'an's private?" ”
"Exactly.
Even if the imperial court later became the ruler of Chang'an, Zhong Qi's prestige among the people was still extremely high.
After a long period of time, when the people had disputes, they still did not want to go to Jingzhao Mansion, but were willing to go to Zhong Qi for mediation. ”
Liu Xiu rubbed his chin and said, "For the stability of Chang'an, this Zhong Qi also has some merits. ”
"What Your Majesty said is very true."
Speaking of this, Jing Zhaoyin secretly glanced at Liu Xiu and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty made a special trip to Jing Zhao Mansion for Zhong Qi, but ...... But what's wrong with this person? ”
Liu Xiu didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "I suspect that he is fornicating!" ”
