Section 15: Assassination of the squire

I know I've caused you pain, and you can take my life, but please don't hurt the little girl's life. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info - Ren Gui

The Great Sui Dynasty is declining, and Chang'an City has held several international expositions. This year's World Exposition was held in Luoyang City. Even so, Yang Guang was unwilling to lose the face of the Celestial Empire in front of the small country of Fanbang, so he still made a big deal and appointed his favored second son, Yang Jin, the king of Qi, to attend and preside over the expo.

Although most of the people in Luoyang City could not afford to eat meat, wear new clothes, live in dilapidated old houses with leaky rain, and could not afford to see a doctor, they were still forced by the government to smile, sing and dance, and welcome the envoys of various small states.

I saw that the city was full of lanterns, decorated with silk and colored cloth for the trees and shop signs, and covered the floors with fine cloth, as well as strange lanterns. You look up and down, left and right, and you see lanterns everywhere, even on the trees. The lantern is red and bright. Reflecting with the flowers and grasses, it is more colorful and joyful.

Thirty-six troupes, including jugglers and opera troupes from all over the country, set up performances in various parts of Luoyang.

There are all kinds of special snacks and all kinds of agricultural and sideline products for sale all over the city...... Horseback riders, donkey pullers, carts, and palanquins and carriages of wealthy families...... People come and go, bustling.

In order to go to see the World Exposition, the girl of a family took the young lady with her.

"Are you going? Does it really matter? Will it be discovered by Daddy? The young lady asked.

"Miss, let's go, the master went to talk to Lord Taishou, I can't find it, we finally came to Luoyang and ran into the World Exposition, why don't we go and take a look?"

In one place, the Anglo-Saxon booth, a blonde and blue-eyed young man came to the center of the stage with a wheelbarrow, stepped onto the wheelbarrow, circled the field a few times, and rode to the ladder in the center of the stage. He lowered his head and jumped slightly, and even the man jumped to the first step of the ladder with the cart, and jumped to the top of the ladder in the same way. With the show to come, he jumped lightly and jumped down the ladder again. Then, he let a little boy ride on his back, turned left, right, and rode backwards, throwing the little boy into the air and catching his difficult moves.

In the other place, there was a booth of the Great Food Country, and only to hear a humorous Sitter music sound, nine boys dressed in red clown clothes lined up on the stage, only to see them wearing straw hats, holding one in each hand, and three straw hats were exchanged on the top of their heads, and the speed was getting faster and faster. Changing formations, they climbed up to their companions in turn, forming a tower-shaped, and their hats flew up and down in their hands, dazzling everyone. The people began to talk about it, and some said, "Well, that's good! Some said: "It's not easy at a young age!" Others said, "Wow, that's cool!" ”

"Wow, that's amazing." The girl and the young lady both praised from the bottom of their hearts.

Ah Niu and Zhang Zhengbin also came to see the excitement.

"Where did he go?" Ah Niu asked.

"Cut, he's not your wife, why are you worried so much?"

"But ......"

"Wow, look, look, it's thrilling! Ah, there are so many beautiful women! ”

Lao Zhang said, so he ran over and talked to the young lady and the girl from the big family: "Beauty, are you still having fun?" ”

The two women lowered their heads, embarrassed to answer.

"What's your name?" Lao Zhang continued.

"Let's go, let's go, Satsuki." The young lady said to the girl.

With that, the two turned around and left.

"Ah Niu, let's follow. Miss, don't run, don't run, what's your name? ”

"Get out of the way."

"It's fate that makes us meet. Let me treat you to a pot of tea. ”

"Presumptuous, don't get out of the way."

"Get out of the way, this woman is interesting, is she still pretending to be a woman from an official eunuch's family? Isn't it cuter to see her angry? Ha, ha, ha. ”

The young lady was furious and waved her hand and slapped Zhang Zhengbin.

"Bastard, don't get out of the way."

"What if I don't, you rude woman."

Saying that, Lao Zhang wanted to fight back and beat the woman.

Fortunately, Liu Renliang came, grabbed Lao Zhang's hand, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"You don't have to worry about it."

"What are you doing in the middle of the day, embarrassing a weak woman?"

"Who's embarrassed by whom? She just slapped me. ”

"That's enough."

"Hmph, I'm really unlucky, I ran into a broom star." Lao Zhang's hand broke free and left angrily.

Ren Liang said to the young lady: "I'm sorry to frighten you, my friend drank too much, and I apologize for him." ”

"Ah Niu, let's go." Ren Liang beckoned Ah Niu to leave.

In the palace, Wang Shi found Ren Liang and said to him: "You help me send this good full moon scimitar to Yanshi and hand it over to Lord Ren, the squire of the military department." Be careful and take care of yourself along the way. ”

"Yes, please rest assured, Lord Wang."

Watching Ren Liang and Ah Niu walk away, Wang Shi was relieved.

The two of them slept in the open, came to Yanshi, and found the mansion where Ren Shilang was stationed.

Lao Ren went out, and the two waited until the evening to see Ren Gui, the squire of the military department, and Ren Liang sent a treasure knife.

"Lord Ren, there is another letter here, please take a look, Lord Wang, please reply to him, let me go back with the reply."

Ren Gui opened the letter, and the letter wrote in code: Help me try this young man's character. I'm ready to reuse him.

Ah Niu, who was sitting under the eaves and dozing, suddenly saw four or five masked night walkers coming in over the wall, which startled Ah Niu.

The night walker kicked open the door of Ren Gui's house, and Ren Gui said, "Who is it?" ”

"We're here to take your dog's life."

"Guts rats, shrunken heads."

"Hmph." The leading night walker pulled down the mask and said, "Do you remember me?" ”

"It's you."

A night walker dragged Ren Gui's daughter out as a hostage.

It turned out that the young lady who was harassed by Zhang Zhengbin was Ren Shilang's daughter.

Ren Shilang, who was about to draw his sword and fight viciously, suddenly felt that he was jealous.

"Put your weapon down." Lead the night walkway.

Ren hesitated.

"Don't you want your daughter to live?"

Lao Ren had no choice but to throw the war knife in his hand to the ground.

Ah Niu, who was hiding in the gap of the rockery and peeking, was in a dilemma: if I ran away, I would be a coward, but if I didn't run, people would be holding a bright sword, what should I do?

"Who's sneaking around?" A big hand grabbed Ah Niu's shoulder.

"Don't, don't, don't mind my business, don't kill me."

"Hey, Ah Niu, are you here too?"

"Ah, it's Brother Han, that's great."

It turned out that the person who came was Li Jinghan, and Li Jinghan was entrusted by his master He Zhouzi to visit Ren Shilang. When I went to the door, I saw a dry of night pedestrians, and when I saw the night pedestrians climbing over the wall, Jing Han also quietly climbed over the wall and came in.

"I know I've caused you pain, you can take my life, but please don't hurt the little girl's life." Ren Gui said frankly.

"Shut up, bastard, I'm going to kill your daughter first, and I'm going to give you a taste of losing your daughter."

"The Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and if you are guilty, I will also take you to prison."

"I'm just trying to give my sick child a good medicine."

"Not everyone in your situation will sin."

Jing Han and Ah Niu have quietly touched it.

"I beg you so lowly, please give me a day off, just so that I can go out to see her one last time, but you don't care!"

Ren Liang suddenly interrupted: "I'm sorry, I'm just a guy who delivers things, can I go?" I have nothing to do with this family. ”

"What? What do you say, do you think I'm so easily deceived? ”

"I can't imagine that it's so unlucky to send something, alas, really. Then hurry up and kill them, what are you doing with all this nonsense? ”

"What?"

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up?" Ren Liang urged.
