According to the Tang system, the person responsible for patrolling the night of the capital and arresting the police is the left and right Jinwuwei, which also includes the city gate of the outer city, among them, the left and right street envoys, the six streets of the patrol are in charge, the corner of the city gate, there are Wuhou shops, guards, and cavalry guards, 100 people at the big city gate, 30 people in the big shop, 20 people in the small city gate, 5 people in the small shop, sunset, 800 drums and the door is closed.

Xuanyangfang's Wuhou shop, naturally the big shop in the big shop, there is a team of guards stationed in the shop, that is, a full fifty people, when Yan Zhuang ran into the shop, the drum beat was just over half, and a group of guards were sitting around eating and drinking.

The man at the head said loudly: "Move faster, go and close the door after eating, and rub it again, and it will be dark." ”

"It's going to be open left and right, maybe when we finish eating, there will be news over there, so I don't have to run in vain."

"But isn't it, this will not come out, is it really impossible to spend the night in the mansion, we have heard, Jingzhao Mansion has captured hundreds of Jiannan's tooth soldiers, and the prison is full of crying and shouting every day, and people are panicked when they hear it."

The shouting of his subordinates made the man a little impatient, and he took the bowl and leaned on the table: "Just make a lot of noise, a few of you go to close the door, the drum stops, and the door is closed, it is an iron law, if you want to live in peace, close the bird's mouth, otherwise people will sue a book, a certain family will eat and hang, and none of you can run, it must not look good at that time, and it must be opened at night, and then it will be noisy." ”

Several of his subordinates saw that he was really angry, and they didn't dare to fight anymore, so they put down the bowl and muttered out of the shop, just as they passed by Yan Zhuang, and he was brought in by a guard and stood in front of the man.

"Street envoy, this person said that he had a complaint."

The man glanced up, and Xu saw that he was dressed extraordinary, and his words were a little polite.

"Which house are you from, what's the matter?"

"The small one is the steward of Pei's house, and he was ordered by my wife to guard it, and when he inspected it today, he found that there were some unknown people in the house, and the small ones didn't dare to make a mistake, so he came to ask the street envoy to help, and took the time to go."

Pei Mansion, Mrs., put the two keywords together, the man's face suddenly became solemn, he is a street envoy, but he has been stationed in this shop for a long time, the reason is that there are many powerful people in this workshop, and it is the place where the three Yang sisters and Yang Guozhong live in the capital who can't be messed with, how can I not know the situation in the workshop, if it is an ordinary mansion, it is just an ordinary mansion, and things like arresting robbers can be pushed to Wannian County, but that is the place where Mrs. Qiu Guo lost her son, who in Beijing doesn't know, for this case, how many heads have landed, Except for the widow, Pei's mansion was almost wiped out, and even the prince was deflated, he was a small street envoy, how dare he slack off.

The man stood up and asked in a deep voice, "Can you see clearly, how many people are there?" ”

"I only glanced at it, and for fear that the thieves would know, I hurried to come and tell them, and there should be five or six people." Yan Zhuang's face had just the right amount of panic, which made people know at a glance that the matter was not very serious.

"Can someone report to Madame's house?"

"That's nature."

Yan Zhuang's words made him think that this person was sent by his wife, five or six people, according to the usual exaggeration of the people, most of them are three or four, Pei's mansion is empty, there is nothing worth stealing in it, it is very likely to be a homeless beggar, or a passerby, the man has a bottom in his heart, and waved his hand at his subordinates.

"Get up, grab the guys, and go with so-and-so."

With his order, the guards who were eating in the shop all moved, and counted them solemnly and secretly, except for those who beat drums, those who closed the workshop, and those who stood guard at the door, there were more than thirty people here, including the street envoys, no one was wearing armor, and everyone was wearing jackets, carrying horizontal knives at their waists, and holding light weapons such as guns, sticks, bows and arrows.

A group of people followed Yan Zhuang and ran out, because Pei's mansion was built on the edge of the fang, and soon, they arrived outside the gate of the mansion, the gate was open, and the man led by him waved his hand without hesitation.

"Rush in, search carefully, and don't let go of anything."

Yan Zhuang followed them and rushed into the house, just turned the wall, and found a few figures, Xu saw them come in, and hurriedly ran to the backyard, the guards saw it, and they came to the spirit, shouting messy slogans in their mouths, and followed up like a swarm.

In this way, you chased me to the ground, seeing the thieves running into the back hall, the guards rushed in without stopping, and the man led by stepped into the door, and looked around, the hall was empty, but the lights and candles around were lit, obviously someone had come, such a house turned the lobby is the main courtyard, and there is no other way out except the gate behind him.

"Hugh is leaving, thief ......"

He couldn't say anything else, he only felt a chill on his neck, and a snowy knife tip appeared in front of him.

"You ......"

Yan Zhuang pressed his arm with one hand, held the sharp blade in the other, and said in a cold tone: "Let your people put down their weapons and don't move, otherwise the knife and gun will have no eyes and hurt no wonder." ”

Just when the man was furious and his men were at a loss, a group of masked black-clothed men poured in from the inner room and the door, outnumbering them, each holding a bright horizontal knife, surrounding them, and then one by one the voices of reprimands rang out.

"Discard!"

"Bound yourself, and those who disobey the order die!"

The scene suddenly became tense and extremely tense, where did the guards encounter such a scene, not so much that they wanted to resist stubbornly, but that they didn't know what to do, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, in Chang'an City, since the congenital change, it has been peaceful for more than forty years, not to mention that in Xuanyangfang, where the Yang family lives, not to mention that it is a strong man, even a small thief is very rare, therefore, each of them is holding up a knife and gun, but his eyes involuntarily look at his own Shangguan, the man who was held by a knife on his neck.

"The turtle son's hardness is ruthless."

Liu Ji stepped forward to take the sharp blade in Yan Zhuang's hand, pulled it back without saying anything, a blood stain shot out, the man's legs were weak, and he knelt on the ground all of a sudden, holding the wound with one hand, and said with a trembling mouth.

"Throw, throw the weapon, let's drop, drop."

Hearing his command, and seeing that the other party really dared to make a move, those guards could still stand, and they threw away the swords, guns, bows and arrows in their hands one after another, and tied their hands and feet one after another according to the instructions of the man in black.

"By the way, be obedient and obedient, and your life can be saved."

Liu Ji kicked the man down, glanced at his subordinates, put away his sharp blade and walked out of the lobby with Yan Zhuang.

"Thirty-five people, and fifteen people are in the shop, and if a certain family goes again, there are ...... people here."

"Don't kill them, keep them, you can be a witness."

Liu Ji looked at the night outside the lobby and said calmly.
