Chapter 225: A Dead End
Seeing Zhang Bao'er go out, Jiang Xiaotong felt a little uneasy in her heart, and she hurriedly instructed Ying'er: "You hurry up and find Uncle Hua!" ā
Uncle Hua came into the house, and before he could speak, he heard Jiang Xiaotong say eagerly: "Uncle Hua, you are following Bao'er behind, you must protect his safety!" ā
"Don't worry! Miss! Uncle Hua agreed and left in a hurry. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½

The door of the living room of Cen's Qianzhuang was closed, and Zhang Baoer and Lu Yu sat at the table face to face.
Lu Yu picked up the fragrant tea in front of him and tasted it carefully, as if he had never drunk such a good tea in his life.
Zhang Baoer looked at Lu Yu quietly, thinking about his thoughts in her heart.
Finally, Lu Yu put down the tea bowl and smiled brightly at Zhang Bao'er.
I don't have much to do with Lu Yu, but in Zhang Baoer's impression, although Lu Yu is dignified, he has always been a lewd villain who can't get on the stage.
"Anyway, Zhang Gongzi can come, and Lu is already grateful." Lu Yu's words didn't seem to be fake, he was very sincere: "If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't help himself, Lu really wanted to make friends with Zhang Baoer's son." Maybe we'll be friends with everything! ā
Zhang Baoer smiled slightly, noncommittal.
Lu Yu didn't mind, and suddenly asked, "Gongzi Zhang, do you think it's not bad to live in Chang'an City?" ā
Zhang Baoer didn't know why Lu Yu asked such a question, he said without thinking: "I think where life is secondary, the key is to see if you are happy!" ā
"What you say may be reasonable, but I think Chang'an is a place that people hate and love." Lu Yu's eyes were a little hollow, as if he was telling Zhang Bao'er, and he seemed to be talking to himself: "In Chang'an, you can eat delicacies that you can't eat elsewhere, you can drink elixir that you can't drink elsewhere in Datang, there are countless beauties here, and you can enjoy endless glory and wealth." ā
Speaking of this, Lu Yu's voice changed: "However, to gain these, you have to lose a lot of things. Since you live in Chang'an, you have to plan for the worst. ā
Zhang Baoer didn't know why Lu Yu wanted to go around in such a big circle with him, and he didn't know what he wanted to do, so he was quite impatient, so he said: "Shopkeeper Lu, what you want to say, just say it!" ā
"Zhang Gongzi, don't be impatient. Maybe you have been in Chang'an for a short time, and you don't understand how deep the water in Chang'an is, I can see it a lot, let's put it this way, those powerful people can decide the life and death of ordinary people at will, and those who are determined to live and die have no room for resistance, and they can't even choose how to die! ā
Zhang Bao'er heard it, and there was something in Lu Yu's words.
"Feng Gui and You Tao are examples, and now it's my turn and you. Today, I came to you to say goodbye to you, and I had to come to you. ā
"Princess Anle let me die, and it makes sense, but why did she let you die?" Zhang Bao'er seemed to be a little unconvinced, frowned and said, "Aren't you Princess Anle's confidant?" ā
"What a bullshit henchman!" Lu Yu said miserably: "When you can use it, you can say that you are a confidant, and when you don't need it, you are an outcast!" ā
Zhang Bao'er was a little sympathetic to Lu Yu, and he hesitated: "You can leave Chang'an and avoid these rights and wrongs from afar!" ā
"It's useless! Their power is too great to hide! Lu Yu shook his head and said, "I'm dead, at least my family can be saved." If I escape, the end result may be a large family, and no one will survive. This is fate, since you have stepped on this boat, you must always be ready for this day! ā
Zhang Bao'er wanted to say something, but saw Lu Yu stand up and said to Zhang Bao'er: "The time has come, I should go!" ā
With that, Lu Yu took out a dagger from his arms.
"What are you going to do?" Zhang Baoer also stood up vigilantly.
"I'm sorry, Gongzi Zhang, I'll pray for you when I get to the underworld!" Lu Yu grinned.
Zhang Baoer has never seen such a complicated smile in her life, there are apologies, mockery, weirdness, and relief.
Just when Zhang Bao'er was surprised, Lu Yu slammed the dagger into his chest.
Blood gushed out and splashed Zhang Bao'er's body. Lu Yu fell on the table, his eyes gradually drifted, but his eyes did not close, as if he was looking at Zhang Bao'er who was stunned.
Uncle Hua and Cen Shaobai, who were guarding outside, heard movement in the house and were about to go in. But he saw a team of officials rushing in quickly, and the leader was Ma Ming, the head catcher of Jingzhao Mansion.
Ma Ming flashed his waist card towards Cen Shaobai, and said loudly: "Shopkeeper Cen, someone reported the death case of Cen Qianzhuang, and we were ordered to come to investigate, and we were offended!" ā
After saying that, Ma Ming waved his hand, and the officials scattered in all directions.
Ma Ming kicked open the door of the living room with a few quick catchers, and the scene in front of him stunned Ma Ming and the others, and also stunned Uncle Hua and Cen Shaobai, who came in with them.
Lu Yu was lying on the table, blood was flowing all over the ground, and his eyes were still wide. Zhang Bao'er stood opposite him, with a stupid expression.
A catcher stepped forward to test Lu Yu's snort, and whispered to Ma Ming: "Ma catcher, the person is dead!" ā
Ma Ming came back to his senses at this time, and shouted to the left and right: "Quickly lock up the culprit and take him back to the house!" The scene of the crime was immediately guarded, and no one was allowed to enter! ā
Several catchers were about to step forward, but they heard Uncle Hua roaring angrily on the side: "I see who dares to lock him!" ā
Before coming, Jiang Xiaotong specially ordered Uncle Hua to come to protect Zhang Bao'er, how could he let the catcher take people away from his eyes? Don't look at the fact that there are many people who arrest the fast officials, but Uncle Hua doesn't pay attention to them at all.
Ma Ming glared at Uncle Hua and said viciously: "You are resisting arrest, according to the law of the Tang Dynasty, you will be killed!" ā
Uncle Hua glanced at Ma Ming contemptuously: "You dare to touch a single hair of his hair!" ā
When did Ma Ming suffer such a provocation, and was about to order Uncle Hua to be killed on the spot, but he heard someone say: "Slow! ā
Zhang Bao'er, who had not spoken, took a few steps forward, sent her hands in front of Ma Ming, made a gesture that was willing to be restrained, and said: "One person does things and one person is responsible, I will go with you, don't affect others!" ā
Uncle Hua was immediately anxious when he saw it, and he shouted, "Uncle......"
Zhang Bao'er was unusually calm, glanced at Uncle Hua and said, "You don't need to say it, listen to me, I know it in my heart!" ā
Ma Ming waved his hand and said, "Tie it up!" ā
After a few words, he stepped forward and locked Zhang Baoer tightly with an iron chain.
"Take it away!" Ma Ming waved his hand again.
One catcher dragged the other end of the chain and walked out of the house, while the other catchers guarded against Uncle Hua like a great enemy.
When Zhang Baoer was about to go out, she turned her head and left a sentence to Uncle Hua: "Tell Xiaotong, don't move, just send me some warm clothes!" ā
