Today's Chang'an City, there is no sunshine, and the morning glow that has just emerged in the east has long been covered by rolling dark clouds, and the sky is like lead ink.

Yuan Zhao stood in the middle of Xuanwu Street, his hands clasped between his sleeves, silently looking at the closed gate of Xincheng Houfu.

The wind blowing from the western mountains, mixed with the humid air, filled his sleeves and lifted the ribbon and corners of his plain robe. There is no crown belt on his head, a black hairpin ties his hair at random behind his head, his sideburns are a little messy, his eyebrows are like swords, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows are no longer the kindness of the past, and the faint and terrifying edge flashes away.

An ordinary carriage stopped ten paces behind him, and sitting on the side of the carriage was the child named Lu Jun, and the little marquis promised to take him here to take his sister home.

All the news points to the fact that those strong men in high suits last night finally entered the Xincheng Mansion, and they were so arrogant that they didn't even bother to do anything to hide their whereabouts!

Yes, who is going to stand up for a few ordinary people who are not related to each other! In their consistent thinking, the strict class barriers are like an insurmountable chasm, and the status of the two is like mud. These families, as long as they don't have enough to eat and support themselves to rebel, nothing else is a big deal!

Besides, didn't you do much of this before? Those flat-headed people, who have no roots and no bottom, provoke the heads of the nobles, and if they die, they are dead, what else can they do? Occasionally, if you encounter some officialdom relations, at most you will just send some money. No one has ever dared to resist them without opening their eyes, and that will only end miserably.

Because, against any of them, it will not be this one person who will face him, but the powerful and wealthy family behind him, a group of lords who advance and retreat with him, and even half of the court that is inextricably linked!

However, today, there is a person who does not open his eyes and comes to this Xuanwu Street, where the noble and wealthy gather, and stands in front of the Xincheng Mansion. He was alone, and came to ask Xincheng Houli to hand over the girl who was arrested in the mansion.

Northern Xuanwu, heavy attack, authority, life and death of the Lord!

The families living on this street are like thousand-year-old turtles lying still in the water, usually not moving, but as soon as the wind blows, they will swallow the clouds and absorb the water, revealing their grandeur.

There was no trace on the street, but the scene in front of the Marquis of Xincheng's mansion had reached the ears of many people during the time that Yuan Zhao was waiting.

Hou Men Gaodi, the home of important ministers, many people pushed open the food table, stopped breakfast, and ordered people to call their henchmen to discuss the hidden meaning behind this.

In the Weiyang Palace, after reading the whole thing presented by Xi Fengwei's secret agent, the emperor, who was still plain, stood up, wandered a few steps indoors, came to the sword stand by the wall, stretched out his hand and pulled out the sword of the Son of Heaven, the streamer was overflowing, and tried the sword qi!

"Is this about to begin...... Boy, if you can help me achieve this great achievement this time, I will ensure that you will be rich and prosperous for the rest of your life! ”

Thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and to be depicted, Liu Che has a great fighting spirit in his chest.

"Come here, spread the word that Dongfang Shuo and Li dare to come to see him."

At the same moment, in the depths of the forbidden garden of Changle Palace, after listening to Lao Xiuyu's brief explanation, the Empress Dowager Dou put down the half-drunk white fungus lotus seed porridge, and gently stirred it with a soup spoon, and the palace maid next to her hurriedly handed over Supa, she took it and wiped her hands.

"This kid is still too young, and the emperor is also a little anxious, how can he leave such a difficult thing to him to do! What if something goes wrong? Are those people's hearts ruthless...... Alas! Xiuyu, you go and take care of it secretly, no matter what happens, don't let people hurt him in the slightest. ”

"Ancestors and relax, there are beautiful fish, it must be arranged steadily and properly, foolproof!"

This commander of Xifengwei, who was shocked thirty years ago, saluted respectfully and looked resolute. Empress Dowager Dou nodded lightly, she has long been out of the world affairs, only this child that Emperor Wen once told her to take good care of has become the only thought in her heart.

No matter what happened behind him, how much help there was and how many enemies, for Yuan Zhao, he didn't pay attention to it. Now, he just stared at the door quietly, waiting for the people inside to come out. He hoped that there would be a better outcome, as long as the girl was sent out unharmed.......

The door of the Xincheng Houfu was finally opened from the inside, and a group of people walked out of it surrounded by an old man. He looked to be about seventy years old, and he glanced at the door, and his eyes met the young man in white.

"You're the kid with the surname Yuan waiting for someone? Ha ha! Do you know what this place is? ”

Seeing his old man asking, the guards and housekeepers beside him were all playing with smiling faces, in their opinion, it is rare that the old man is interested today, and personally inquired about the other party, this kid didn't hurry up to be a little more interesting, and begged each other softly, maybe the old man was in a good mood, and he would spare him Meng Lang's sin.

However, to their surprise, Yuan Zhao raised his eyelids, glanced contemptuously at the plaque above the Hou Mansion, and then smiled coldly.

"Presumably you are the one who was knighted as the Marquis of Xincheng, right? Don't talk nonsense, let your children and grandchildren who don't make it hurry up and hand them over! I don't have time to waste time with you. ”

He spoke clearly and spoke word by word. A group of people in front of the door of the mansion on the steps were stunned for a moment, thinking that there was something wrong with their ears and they heard it wrong?

"What do you say? What did you kid just say? Say it again! ”

The housekeeper, who finally reacted, jumped out, his face turned black, and pointed at Yuan Zhao with one hand, eager to eat him in one bite!

The rest of the people are no better, it's infuriating! Can this kid speak? This is a deliberate attempt to find death! Master's name, dare anyone in this world call it that?

Hearing such an unceremonious conversation, Li Ji didn't show anything abnormal, the thousand-year-old fox had already cultivated into an indistinguishable appearance. He waved his hand to stop the noise of the crowd, and laughed instead of anger.

"Huh! You're a funny doll. It's just a pity, I just don't know how thick the sky is. You don't really know what this place is? ”

It's been a long time since I've had an opponent, and the feeling of loneliness, like a swordsman hiding a sword, is not appreciated. Therefore, although the other party is such a weak opponent, he can't help but want to tease and laugh.

However, he was wrong, Yuan Zhao didn't come to accompany him for recreation, this weak young man might be the Yama who was urging his life!

Yuan Zhao stretched out his finger, his expression was solemn, and he pointed to the sky and then to the earth.

"The emperor and the queen of heaven are clear. What I stand under my feet is Chang'an of the Han Dynasty, and what I see in my eyes is the territory of China. The sky is high and the earth is thick, it is measured by others, the law is strict, and no one can go beyond the degree! ”

Li Ji was stunned, this kid has such a big breath! He took a closer look at Yuan Zhao, but he was just an ordinary teenager, and after making a little contribution, he was so arrogant that he dared to come here to call out?

Before he could say anything more, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and a group of people came out of the backyard, came to his side, bowed down first, and then turned around, and smiled at Yuan Zhao, who was standing at the foot of the steps.

Seeing that it was Li Ping'an and his brothers, Li Ji nodded slightly, since it is a matter for the juniors, let them solve it on their own. I fought with that little boy again, but it seemed that I had lowered my value.

"Kid surnamed Yuan, aren't you here to ask for someone? Okay, now I can tell you clearly, what happened last night was done by our brother, what can you do with us? Hehe, aren't you amazing? The injuries on the brothers' bodies will be repaid on you sooner or later, and you yourself are about to be difficult to protect, and you dare to meddle in other people's affairs! ”

When Lu Jun in the carriage heard this, he had already struggled to jump down, crying: "You thieves, return my father and my sister!"

Yuan Zhao stretched out his hand and grabbed him, signaling him not to be impulsive and wait in the back.

"The account between us, slowly settled. Now, send out the girl you captured last night, and I'm going to take her back. ”

Yuan Zhao's face became very cold, his patience was almost exhausted, if it wasn't for the forced suppression, lest it hurt the big thing, he really wanted to draw his sword and kill the Quartet, so as to dissipate the qi in his chest!

Li Ping'an quietly looked at Li Ji's expression, and saw that his hands were twisted and his beard was twisted, and his face was gloomy. Knowing that his own Lao Tzu has been angry with the kid in front of him who doesn't know what to do, this is easy to do, even if his gang does things too much, they will come to the uncles to take shelter.

"Brother Hui, people are still not giving up, they all came to the door, crying and shouting for that girl! Look, do you want to give it back to him? Hahaha! ”

When he said this, several gentlemen had different expressions on their faces. There is a sinister smile, there is cruelty, there is freedom, and the pleasure after revenge......!

The young man named Chen Hui had a pale face, his missing left arm, tightly bandaged, and his expression was fierce, and his eyes like falcons stared at Yuan Zhao fiercely, revealing a cruel sneer.

"Okay, I can give it back to you! Anyway, this son is not rare. Although it is already a bit of a sigh, it is far from enough, this revenge with a broken arm will be brought back by your master and apprentice sooner or later. Hum! Come on, give away, save them in front of the door entangled, disturbing Uncle Li's purity. ”

Following his orders, several guards carried a person tightly wrapped in white linen cloth out of the courtyard, standing by the high gate of the mansion, and with Chen Hui's wave of his hand, several people threw down the steps with force.

From the moment he heard Chen Hui's words, Yuan Zhao's heart was sinking. He had a hunch that the last thing he wanted to see might have happened.

The steps are very high, and the high separates the noble and the low, the human and the demon! The dark clouds are very dark, and it is so dark that I can't tell whether this is the Demon Domain or the Human World!

Yuan Zhao raised his head and saw the black rolling of the sky, and his blood wanted to break through the top of his head, turn into sharp arrows, and disrupt the iron curtain of this thousand years! When he lowered his head, the white linen roll just rolled to his feet, and the tied cloth broke off, and the linen cloth was like a white blanket, spread out in the middle of Xuanwu Street.

The sister of the Lu family named Lu'er is just twenty years old this year, she was born very beautiful, if she continues to live their stable life with her father and younger brother, she may marry a gentle family in a few years, there will be a man who loves and protects her, and has a few children, like countless ordinary people in this world, to live an ordinary and satisfying ......life.

However, all those good things have been lost to her. The woman who was still looking forward to saving money for her relatives to buy new clothes yesterday has now died and her soul is gone.

The body lying on the white linen cloth was naked, covered with various scars, and I don't know what kind of torture I had endured before I died. A pair of beautiful eyes are fixed on the sky, and the eyes are still clear and flawless.

Yuan Zhao only glanced at it, and when he raised his head, he lowered his sleeves and covered her face. He didn't dare to look at the innocent face again, his hands trembled, and he closed his eyes for her.

Lu Jun had already cracked his liver and gall, he jumped up, crying heartbreakingly, holding his sister's head and shaking her to wake up.

A pair of hands separated him, and those hands were strong. In the eyes of tears, Lu Jun saw Yuan Zhao squatting down, meticulously wrapping his sister's body with the white linen cloth, and then carrying it on his back, holding his arm with one hand, and reaching out with the other, pointing to the group of people standing high on the steps. His words rang in his ears, and Xiao Lu Jun heard them clearly, and he did not forget a word in his later life.

"If there's anything you haven't done yet, do it while you're still alive. Before dark today, if this revenge cannot be avenged, I will be born in vain in this heaven and earth! None of you can run away from all those who do evil. ”

After saying this, Yuan Zhao did not stop, pulled Lu Jun and jumped into the carriage, carefully put Lu'er in the carriage, beat the horse and rushed out of Xuanwu Street, galloping away. The clouds are thicker overhead, and thunder will rise.

Li Ji frowned, he turned around and glanced at it, and the group of boys who were still proud just now immediately lowered their heads and made a gesture of admitting their mistakes.

Xin Chenghou sighed, and swallowed the words of scolding when they came to his mouth. They are all children who have grown up in front of them, although they have indeed gone too far, but seeing the injuries on their bodies, it is inconvenient to punish them at this time.

What's more, that kid was too rampant just now, and he left behind cruel words, this is a declaration of war against the people on this street? All right! Let's see what he's capable of. After so many years of hibernation, the old arms and legs just want to move.

"Let's all go home! Little bunnies, get into trouble all day long. Forget it this time, I won't punish you. Go back and say hello to your old man, you should recuperate from your injuries, and don't run around recently. ”

When everyone heard this, they all relaxed their hearts, since Uncle Li, who is the backbone of everyone, said so, then what is there to worry about. At that moment, they were each escorted by their entourage, and they went home separately.

At this time, it was still very early, outside the Weiyang Palace, hundreds of officials began to gather, and today's court meeting was about to begin. It's strange, there are a lot of people here today, and I don't know if they heard any news or what, anyway, as long as they are qualified to go to the temple, they should come and those who shouldn't come.

As an official in Chang'an, if you don't know the news, then where can you do it! No matter what source they got the news from, and no matter what plans they had in their hearts, everyone smelled something unusual from today's battle.

Prime Minister Tian Ying kept thinking in his heart, speculating about what might happen at today's court meeting. This old fox already had a premonition that today would be very bad, and maybe something big would happen. Because he saw that Dou Ying, who had not been to the court for a long time since he retired, actually appeared in front of the palace gate, surrounded by many ministers in the center, greeting each other.

This highly respected old minister, he suddenly appeared here, and he definitely didn't come to wander around for no reason! And the only ones who can support him are the emperor and the Empress Dowager Dou.

"It seems that you have to be careful today, there are some things that must be thought about before you say it......!" Tian Jue thought to herself.

Of course, there are not a few people who have the same mind as him, and the way to be an official lies in standing in line at a critical time, one step right, you can ascend to heaven, one wrong step, you can also enter the ground! So at such a moment, there is no distraction at all.

The bell rang, the palace door was wide open, and hundreds of civil and military officials lined up to enter, and on the high throne of Hanyuan Palace, Emperor Liu Che had already waited in advance.

Turning one street after another, the carriage drove from Beicheng to Xicheng, Yuan Zhao's heart was like a blazing fire, the children around him were crying in a low voice, and the hidden thunder was rolling in the sky.

He had heard of countless evils in the world, and he had witnessed countless joys and sorrows, but nothing could make him angry today.

On the way of the carriage, from time to time someone came up to him to report a few words, the news from all over the place, the reactions of various key figures, all at any time in his mind to compare, strategize, calculate the gains and losses.......

This is a battle, and since it has begun, it must be won heartily. He didn't want to physically destroy the enemy, but in that case, he would have drawn his sword and done it. What he wanted was to bring that class to its knees, even if not to help, to make them surrender all power.

But now, he has changed his mind, and since he has become a cancer of sin, he can only draw his sword quickly and completely cut it off! Let all the sources of evil be the burial of this beautiful body that has lost its life behind you!

The carriage turned another street corner and galloped into the alley where the fire had broken out last night. The curling green smoke had not yet dispersed, and the rubble was everywhere, and it was a mess.

With the spread of the news and the guidance of well-intentioned people, more and more people in Chang'an gathered here. In the crowd, someone was telling the whole story and the evil behind it, mixed with the cries of those who had lost their homes, and the fire of anger burned more and more in everyone's hearts.

For a long time, the oppression and humiliation of those powerful and wealthy families have been suffered in almost every ordinary household. No one is willing to be humiliated, just swallow their anger.

At this time, it was only a hundred years before the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and although most of those fierce wind bones had been annihilated, there were always some that remained in people's hearts. Today, they are starting to beat ......!

It seems to feel the restlessness of the crowd, and I am afraid that something unexpected will happen. Chang'an ordered Wang Fang to consult with the captain of the patrol guard, and began to order his men to disperse the crowd. But it backfired, and instead provoked the anger of the crowd even more.

Organized by some of the people who were mixed in, the thousands of Chang'an people gathered on this street began to curse and resist. In the midst of this chaos, a horse-drawn carriage appeared at the entrance of the alley.

"Lu Jun, although you are still young, you have to remember what I said, in this world, if you want to get revenge, you have to do it yourself! Now, I lend you a weapon, and that is the power of the people. Go, go and tell all those sorrows...... Revenge, today! ”

Yuan Zhao stared at Xiao Lu Jun's eyes and patted him on the shoulder, his palm was very light and heavy.
