Chapter 93 The sea was once difficult to turn into water, but Wushan is not a cloud
Remember [ .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
Zhao Xu was amused by his little abacus: "The money naturally belongs to you, and the ladies and maids of his family are also yours~."
"Huh! I'm still hurting now, and I can't afford that~"
"Aren't you a famous 'Ximen official' in Yanggu County? It is rumored on the rivers and lakes that you like to take other people's wives the most, why don't you have a ready-made one now? Sima Bai also joined the array of crusades against Ximenqing, and he stared at Ximenqing with burning eyes.
"This ......"
"That's right! I've gotten it, and I'll reward you all! Zhao Xu put up the emperor's shelf.
“……”
The moon is dark and the wind is high, and it is the time to kill! However, at this time, Ximenqing did not kill people, but indirectly killed people. As long as the facts of the crime of Chu Fuyan are found in the military department, he has a hundred heads, which is not enough to cut off.
This was the third night after Zhao Xu and Sima Bai set a night to explore the Shangshu Chu Mansion of the Military Department. Today, Emperor Zhao Xu specially summoned Chu Fuyan, the secretary of the military department, to discuss the issue of army expenditures, and left him in the palace until late at night. Ximen Qing took advantage of Chu Fuyan's absence in the mansion and prepared to sneak into the Chu mansion.
After nearly four days of recuperation and consumption of various tonic herbs, Ximenqing's internal injuries have basically recovered, as long as it is not a violent fight, the chest injury is not a big problem.
When the soldiers on the street walked away, Ximenqing peeked out from the eaves of a house. Because an assassin had infiltrated the palace four days earlier and alarmed Emperor Zhao Xu, for many days to come, Bianliang strictly investigated pedestrians entering and leaving the city, especially those of other clans; A curfew was also imposed at night in Bianliang, making it deserted every night, with only 10,000 soldiers patrolling the streets, and the sound of armor was heard everywhere.
Ximenqing looked up at the sky, the night was misty, the wind and the waning moon were quite poetic. Ximenqing suddenly became interested and whispered: "
The incense is windy and the flowers enter the building, and the high-profile zither eases the night sorrow.
The intestines are broken off and the mountain is not explained, and the curtain hook is under the waning moon. ”
But there is a green building not far below Ximenqing, due to the curfew, now it has to be closed and closed for business, and there is no spectacular scene of the past door. Ximenqing felt about this, and combined with the current moonlight, he borrowed the famous Tang Dynasty poet "Wang Changling" from the "Qinglou Resentment".
"Smack!"
Ximen Qing suffered pain in his head, turned his head and looked at the person behind him angrily. Emperor Zhao Xu knew that Ximen Qing was injured and was worried about any danger in the Chu Mansion, so he asked his master Sima Bai to accompany him.
As the son of Prime Minister Sima Guang, Sima Bai is naturally involved in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs. Waiting for the soldier to go away, he was about to call Ximen Qing to leave, but he heard him chanting a poem there, and the theme was the resentment of the girl in the Qinglou, Sima Bai was angry when he heard it, and slapped him on the back of the head.
Although Sima Bai's head was buzzing with Sima Bai's beating this time, because he was now on a task, he couldn't beat Sima Bai, so Ximenqing had to say silently in his heart: Good men don't fight with women, and good people don't fight with dogs!
In less than a cup of tea, when I came to the Chu Mansion, there were only four guards in front of the door, and I was drowsy. After looking around for a moment, he did not find the guards patrolling the periphery of the Chu Mansion.
Ximen Qing and Sima Bai nodded to each other, came to the shadow of the courtyard wall, and turned over and entered the mansion.
Looking at the intricate approach roads in front of him and the dense buildings in the night, Ximenqing couldn't help but make a difficulty. This military department Shangshu Chu Fuyan is too blatant, his mansion covers an area of no less than 100 acres, which is three times larger than the mansion of the Shangshu Jia Ji of the Ministry of Household Affairs. In the land price market of Bianliang, isn't it obvious that I have a problem here?
"Take it out and have a look." Ximenqing patted his forehead and thought of something.
"Take what?" Sima Bai was puzzled.
"Of course, it's a map of the distribution of houses in Chu Mansion! You've been planning to sneak in here for a long time, so you should be ready? Ximen Qing chuckled in his heart, they wouldn't really count on me for everything~
"This ...... No. Sima Bai had an embarrassed expression for the first time, he had no experience in sneaking into other people's mansions to steal, how could he know this rule?
"Defeated by you!" Ximen Qing was speechless. He suddenly remembered the classic sentence that he used to taunt others when playing games: If you are not afraid of god-like opponents, you are afraid of pig-like teammates! Now Ximenqing's situation is the latter.
Ximenqing had to aimlessly take Sima Bai around the mansion, he found that there were not many guards in the mansion at all, the distribution was just right, and there was no courtyard for key protection, Ximenqing couldn't help but feel powerless: Is it going to be fruitless today?
The two walked through several courtyards and came to a relatively quiet courtyard. Here the flowers cover the door, the small trees shelter from the wind, and the green walls and red tiles show a kind of elegance everywhere. This is the residence of the ladies of the Chu Mansion, and when Ximen Qing saw it, he thought about it and smiled proudly.
Sima Bai saw that the courtyard was warm and elegant, and naturally guessed what kind of residence it was. What made him angry was that he saw Ximenqing's eyes glow, showing a 'lewd' smile, and stretched out his hand and fell on the back of Ximenqing's head. I really took Emperor Zhao Xu's will to reward all the daughters of the Chu Mansion family to you!
"Oops!" Ximenqing shouted this time, it was so abrupt in the silent night. Fortunately, the Chu Mansion has a large courtyard, and no guards or family members heard it.
Ximenqing hurriedly covered his mouth, glared at Sima Bai, suppressed his anger, and whispered: "This is the second time!" Is there anything you can't say well? What do you do when you keep hitting your baby's head? Originally, Ximen Qing was unclear and was patted on the head, and he was very unhappy in his heart, but when he saw Sima Bai's expression, a big man, he put on willow eyebrows, phoenix eyes, and the corners of his mouth were pursed, and he looked like a little woman's anger, which was very funny, so the words in the back came to a 180-degree change.
Sima Bai also knew that he was out of shape, and hurriedly returned to his original indifferent expression. But no matter how much he concealed it, it was in vain, Ximenqing looked at him like he was looking at a monster, and Sima Bai felt very uncomfortable.
At this time, of course, Ximenqing made up in his heart, is Sima Bai the same as the best person, what does it have to do with Emperor Zhao Xu, is he the attacker or the recipient~ I have forgotten that I was slapped by Sima Bai again just now, and I want to retaliate.
"Ahem!" Sima Bai coughed lightly and quickly changed the topic: "What should we do next?" ”
"I've just thought of a countermeasure." Ximenqing smiled proudly, but in Sima Bai's eyes, he still looked 'obscene'.
"What countermeasures?"
Ximenqing played a scoundrel and said, "I was slapped by you and forgotten!" ”
"You! ......" Sima's pale face turned red and white for a while.
Ximen Qing accepted it when he saw it: "Let's sneak into this courtyard and grab a female dependent to ask." Old man Chu's woman should be able to know some things, which is more cost-effective than grabbing the guards at the door. ”
