Chapter 235: Night Meeting

The assassination of Liu Hong and Princess Pingyang shocked the government and the opposition, but they couldn't find any clues about the murderer for several days, which made Liu Si more and more angry, and arrested Chang'an Ling and other people in prison. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Son of Heaven was furious, and Chang'an City naturally couldn't stop, and there were soldiers who came in a hurry all day long and left in a hurry.

In the room, Liu Xi, who was dressed in dirty clothes, sat at the table, shaking the blue and white porcelain cup in his hand quite boredly, watching the cold tea ripple in a circle.

Pretending to be injured and unconscious was a method he came up with when he was assassinated, but now he feels a headache.

First, because he had to deal with the imperial doctor sent by Liu Si, the imperial doctor Ling who came the day before yesterday was really a person with superb medical skills, if it wasn't for Xue Jiang circling around beside him, I was afraid that the other party would have noticed that his injury was faked.

What's more important is that Liu Xi has to stay in the house without leaving home, but whenever there is some movement, he has to lie on the bed without any movement, this kind of thing, one day or two days is okay, but for a long time, Liu Xi feels that his muscles and bones are lying uncomfortable.

During this period, Ming Miao also came, and with this person who knew him well, Liu Xi understood that he couldn't hide his eyes, so he didn't hide it, and after the other party entered the house, he got up straight from the bed.

Seeing that Liu Xi'an, who should have been in a coma, was unharmed, the latter was not surprised at all.

Liu Xi explained this move as having no other way to protect himself, but Ming Miao didn't say anything, just smiled slightly, and then never came to the door.

Liu Xi understood that Ming Miao accepted his explanation, so he came from time to time, otherwise, if he still came every day as in the past, it would naturally make people suspect that Liu Xi was pretending to be sick.

Another two days of peace, and when it got dark, Liu Xi, who was bored in the house, stretched his waist, closed the book that Tian Xun'er had specially found for him in his hand, and was about to sneak out to check Princess Lan Jin's body, but he heard the sound of a wooden door knocking outside the house.

"Yusheng, it's me."

Xiao Wu lowered his voice and said, and Liu Xi in the house buckled it on the wooden table, which was the code they agreed on, indicating that they could enter the house.

Soon, the wooden door was pushed open, and Xiao Wu and Ma Xiu walked in, looking a little nervous, as if something had happened.

"Yusheng, I received news that someone is asking me to meet."

Hearing this, Liu Xijian's eyebrows tightened, he understood what Xiao Wu meant when he said that he had received the news, although the soldiers had suffered great changes back then, there were still disciples of the soldiers lurking in the city.

Now that someone has heard the news of the encounter through the soldiers, Liu Xi remembered the assassination of Liu Hong and Princess Pingyang that day.

Could it be the people behind the scenes?

After that day, Liu Xi thought about the assassination, the target of the second wave of assassins was Liu Hong's sister and brother, and it would even make the 'Qingyun Sword Technique', in the entire Chang'an City, the only one who could have this kind of strength to arrange was the second elder of the former soldier family, Mu Yi.

Back then, Mu Yi rebelled against the soldiers, and there were many people who followed him in the mountain gate.

But whenever he thinks of this, Liu Xi seems to have fallen into a dead end, if it is really as he thinks, it will be even more unreasonable.

Could it be that Mu Yi was involved in Liu Han's battle for the throne again?

After thinking about it, Liu Xi didn't figure it out, after all, this kind of thing was done extremely secretively, and this time he was deeply trapped in Chang'an, even if Ma Xiu and Xiao Wu sent people to inquire, it would be inconvenient.

Now that someone has come to invite Xiao Wu to meet, it is obvious that no matter who it is, it must be related to the soldiers, and Xiao Wu and Ma Xiu also thought about it, otherwise they would not have come to him anxiously.

After pondering for a moment, Liu Xi said in a deep voice, "It should be that Xiao Wu was recognized as a disciple of the soldier family before, and now I ask you to meet, and it doesn't hurt to meet......

Naturally, there are some speculations that Liu Xi didn't say it, but Xiao Wu is afraid that he has already thought that the past of the soldier family has always been a sore thorn in Wu Luoxing's heart, how can Xiao Wu, who grew up beside Wu Luoxing since he was a child, not know?

I don't know what to say Ma Xiu sighed slightly, and gently patted Xiao Wu's shoulder, there is too much helplessness in the world, it should have nothing to do with itself, but it needs to be faced impartially.

This is probably providential.

After sighing slightly, Ma Xiu turned his head and said softly to Liu Xi, "Yusheng, they may not know that you are the inheritor of the military family, so it's better not to show up for the time being." ”

Hearing this, Liu Xi shook his head, "Since they asked Xiao Wu to meet, it should be the result of Elder Tian's secrecy, so I don't know that I am already the inheritor of the military family, but there are some things I also want to understand, and I don't feel at ease when Xiao Wu goes......"

Xiao Wu's temperament is similar to Ma Xiu's, slightly impulsive, Liu Xi is afraid that this is a trap, if the other party is good at scheming, it is very likely to make Xiao Wu fall in love.

And Liu Xi always vaguely felt that this matter was related to Mu Yi.

When he first heard that the county lord of Yuyao was a child of the Mu family, Liu Xi wanted to see Mu Yi very much, and wanted to find out the truth of the year, and planned to wait for Princess Lan Jin after the matter was over, but if it was really Mu Yi who made an appointment to see Xiao Wu tonight, he would definitely have to go.

Ma Xiu smiled and shook the Qiankun fan in his hand, "It's really worrying to let Brother Xiaowu go to the appointment alone, but even if Yusheng goes with him, I'm still a little worried, okay, I happen to have no intention of sleeping tonight, so I'll go with you, if something happens, you can also have more helpers." ”

Liu Xi glanced at Ma Xiu with a smile, and then used the 'Dragon and Snake Nine Changes', and then heard the sound of crackling bones.

Under the stunned gaze of Ma Xiu and Xiao Wu, he turned into a six-foot short man, although his appearance has not changed, but Liu Xi deliberately squeezed his eyes and crooked his mouth, but it was like a different person.

The two of them knew that Liu Xi's 'Dragon and Snake Nine Changes' was very peculiar, but Liu Xi had never shown it before to change his body shape, so Ma Xiu and Xiao Wu had never seen such a scene, even if it was rumored that there were strange exercises on the rivers and lakes that could achieve this effect, but now that they saw it, they would inevitably be surprised.

Changed into night clothes, the three of them walked out of the courtyard like light swallows, and there were many spies and monitors hidden around as usual, but these people were still cultivating, and Liu Xi and the three of them easily avoided them with a little attention.

Under the bright moonlight, Xiao Wu was in front, Liu Xi and Ma Xiu were behind, constantly shuttling through the streets and alleys, there was silence in all directions, and occasionally a dog that was awakened barked a few times.

Finally, Xiao Wu stopped in front of an alley, "It should be here, No. 81 Wuyi Lane." ”

Glancing at Liu Xi and Ma Xiu who were following behind him, Xiao Wu's chest rose and fell and took a few deep breaths, and then he stood up again and galloped towards the alley.

The alley wasn't long, but it had more twists and turns than the usual alley, and at the end of the alley was a nondescript yard, which was where the three were looking.

This time, Xiao Wu did not hesitate, stepped forward and picked up the beast ring that was polished and shiny and could reflect the moonlight, and according to the other party's request, two fast and one slow.

After a while, there was a noise in the courtyard, and it was clear that someone in the courtyard had been waiting.

Hearing the sound of squirming footsteps, needless to say Xiao Wu, even Liu Xi, who was pretending to be calm, suddenly felt a little inexplicably nervous.

"Squeak!"

The wooden door opened, and an emaciated figure also appeared in front of the three of them, this person looked very ordinary, the black long-sleeved robe seemed to be hidden in the night, the hair was as cold as the moon, like an ordinary old man, but the eyes were introverted, showing that he was not an ordinary person.

The visitor looked at it for a while, then lowered his voice and said, "Who are you looking for?" ”

The other party acted quite cautiously.

Xiao Wu took two steps forward and said in a low voice, "The one who was invited." ”

Hearing this, the black-robed man turned sideways and let Liu Xi and the others into the courtyard.

The courtyard is just an ordinary small courtyard, and there are even scattered bricks and stones, which seems to be the owner of the courtyard to repair the house before the cold winter.

In the room, the oil lamp was on, and through the window paper, Liu Xi could see two figures sitting with the lamp in the room.

The black-robed man who led the way stepped forward and knocked lightly on the wooden door, and when a sound came from the house, the black-robed man opened the door and brought Liu Xi and the three inside.

It was only at this time that Liu Xi saw the person who was going to meet them tonight, the two people in the room were all old men with Huafa hair, one was thin, the other was slightly chubby, and both of them looked like ordinary old men, but their momentum was fierce and strong for a long time.

This time, Liu Xi probably understood who the person in front of him was.

Except for Mu Yi and the elders who rebelled against the military family with him back then, who else could have such momentum?

"It's all here, and you still won't show up?"

The emaciated old man said softly, and then his keen eyes looked back and forth on Liu Xi and the three of them a few times, and when he was about to continue to speak, he couldn't stop coughing.

"Second brother, you drink some tea."

The chubby old man sitting on the side hurriedly poured a cup of tea and handed it forward, and the latter drank a few sips of tea before he was relieved.

As he spoke, he glared at Liu Xi and the others, "Which of you is Wu Luoxing's grandson, didn't he teach you the rules of the military family!" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Wu wanted to open his mouth to argue, but Liu Xi patted him on the shoulder, so he had to swallow the words that came to his mouth.

After the three of them went to cover their faces with black cloth, the old man who had coughed before put the cup in his hand to the side, slowly got up and stepped forward, stared at Xiao Wu Haosheng carefully for a long time, and said slowly, "I didn't expect you to be so old in the blink of an eye, and your father seems to be carved out of a mold, by the way, Dawu's little crybaby is good?" ”

There is a bit of kindness in the words, like a spring breeze, which makes people listen to it in their ears, and they can't help but feel very close.

"Brother, he's dead."

Hearing Xiao Wu's words, the three people in the room who asked him to meet were all stunned, obviously, they had never expected this situation.

For a long time, a sigh sounded faintly, full of loneliness and vicissitudes, like an independent lonely mound in the wilderness, a pei soil covered by snow, no one knew the origin and life of the people buried in it, and the road was indescribably sad.

"White hair and black hair, ...... again and again"

Whispering softly, the thin old man reached out to stroke the white hair on his temples, which was as bright as snow, and the other two were full of worry and tried to step forward to support him, but the latter stretched out his hand to stop him.

"The third child is usually very arrogant, and what he does is all rough man's behavior, but his heart is also as meticulous as embroidery, and now even the child Dawu is gone, I am afraid that he will lose half his life."

On one side, the other two all nodded sadly.

At this time, Liu Xi had already affirmed that the other party was Mu Yi and others.

It's just that these words now, where is it like the obscene villain he heard of who ruined the army for the sake of glory and wealth.

Liu Xi was confused.

The more he knew, the more puzzled he became.

On the side, it seemed that his feelings had been vented, and the thin old man sat down tremblingly, his reddened eyes swept over Liu Xi and the others.

"Maybe you've already thought of it, the old man is Mu Yi", he said, pointing to the chubby old man next to him and the black-robed man who opened the door earlier, "This is my fourth brother and sixth brother, we were the elders of the soldier family back then." ”

In the house, Liu Xi and the three did not salute, Mu Yi saw it in his eyes, it seemed that he was expecting, but he was slightly lost.

"You juniors are so rude, could it be that my soldiers have lost even the number of courtesies?"

The chubby old man's face turned red, and he was obviously extremely annoyed.

"That's it, fourth brother, there are some things they don't know, and now there is nothing wrong with such expressions."

After saying this, Mu Yi raised his hand and pointed at Liu Xi, who was standing behind Xiao Wu and had changed his figure, "The old man has been recuperating at home these days, but when you first entered the city, the old man saw it, his face is like your father, and his eyebrows are from your mother, but his temperament is like Liu Han's kid!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Xi, who had been silent, was horrified, but before he could speak, Mu Yi and the three of them bent down to salute him.

"Subordinates have seen the 'broken army'."
