In the library, the four sides are shiny and shiny, very magnificent, a conspicuous yellow lacquer bookcase is presented behind a vermilion wooden shelf, and a lot of bamboo slips are placed on the shelf.

When a scholar with a dream sees a book, it is undoubtedly a mouse that sees rice, a tiger and a wolf see fresh meat, and a hungry man sees a delicacy. Maybe other scholars have other needs, but for Li Huaiyu, reading is what he enjoys the most.

Li Huaiyu searched for several bundles of bamboo slips, put them on the desk, and sat down to read them carefully. He said in his heart: "It seems that my brother is really careful, and my father-in-law not only embarrassed me, but also let me live in the most luxurious bookstore and read the best books." ”

Li Huaiyu waited in the library for an afternoon, and he didn't see his father-in-law until the first drum, and he was very anxious.

Wu Lai stood in front of the bookcase, yawned, and urged: "Auntie, the hour is not early, and the staff may not be able to come back, so you better rest early, right?" ”

Li Huaiyu was so worried that he didn't feel sleepy, and muttered: "My father-in-law obviously said that he would come back soon, why hasn't he seen anyone yet?" ”

Wu Lai comforted: "Auntie, don't be in a hurry, you can do it when you are an extrovert." He glanced out the window and continued, "Maybe he's delayed today." ”

In the weather of the three drums, Wu Chenggong still has no news.

Wu Lai found that the tea was cold, he asked his son to read with peace of mind, and walked out of the library with the teapot and ran to the front yard. Suddenly, there was a "poof", and he collided with a person. Both fell to the ground at the same time. The teapot in his hand "clicked" and threw out the distance, scattering tea leaves on the ground. He looked up and was startled, and it turned out that the other party was a black-clothed masked man with a steel knife in his hand.

Wu Lai asked in a trembling voice: "Who dares to break into the Wu Mansion at night, what crime should you be guilty of?" ”

But I saw the man take off the black cloth covering his face and whispered, "Wu Lai, don't shout, it's me!" ”

Wu Lai fixed his eyes in the moonlight, and it turned out that the person was none other than Wu Jin, who had gone to Luoyang City with the attaché. Wu Lai asked puzzledly, "Wu Jin?" Didn't you go to Luoyang City with the old man, why are you still sneaky in your night clothes here, running around with thief eyebrows? Tell me quickly, in the middle of the night, the black light is blinding, what do you want to carry a steel knife? ”

Wu Jin said with a smile: "Brother, that's the case. The staff gave me ten taels of silver, and let our brothers and sons do one thing, and after the matter is completed, the grandfather will have another reward! ”

Wu Lai lifted the teapot that fell to the ground and asked, "Do something?" What to do? ”

"The staff asked me to kill Li Ergongzi with a knife and throw the body into the dry well in the back garden. I want you to get some light, why don't you go with me, and when it is done, your benefits will be indispensable. ”

Wu Lai's whole body trembled with fright, and he said in his heart: "The old man is really out of conscience, and he is as poisonous as a snake and scorpion. Then he said in a trembling voice: "What...... What the? Let me kill someone? That...... I'm not going. ”

Wu Jinfang said in a heavy tone: "Are you honestly not going? ”

"Say nine and never go!"

Wu Jin said fiercely: "Since you don't go, I'll kill your kid first, and then kill Second Prince Li." ”

Wu Lai saw that the thief was about to kill him, he was in a hurry, shook off the teapot and smashed Wu Jin to the ground with a "clang", and fled.

That Wu Jin was already frantic at this time, and he was carried away by the heart of murder, how could he have expected that the other party would have such a hand? He touched his forehead, and a large cell rose on it. He shook his head, stood up, picked up his knife, and chased in the direction of the stable.

Didn't Wu Chenggong go to Luoyang City to prepare silver for Li Ergongzi, how could he order Wu Jin to rush back to assassinate Li Ergongzi? I don't think you know why. It turned out that Wu Chenggong was walking halfway down the road, got off the horse and sat under a big locust tree, and asked: "Wu Jin, do you guess what the old man is thinking about sitting under the tree while walking?" ”

Wu Jin looked up at the red sun that was already in the west, and said slowly: "Outside, is it that the sun is hot today, are you afraid that your scalp hurts from the sun?" ”

Wu Chenggong shook his head and said, "It's not ......."

Wu Jin looked dazed and said, "Outside the staff, that villain can't guess." ”

Wu Chenggong stood up, took two steps to the north with his negative hand, and turned back and said, "Wu Jin, how do you say the master treats you on weekdays?" ”

Wu Jin wrapped the reins of the horse around his left hand and said, "The master is as kind to the villain as a mountain, and the grace is rebuilt, so do you need to say?" ”

Wu Chenggong turned around and patted Wu Jin on the shoulder, and said, "Hehe, you kid has a conscience." ”

Wu Jin frowned and said, "Master, forgive me for saying too much, do you really want to prepare silver taels for Li Huaiyu?" ”

Wu Chenggong sighed and said, "Alas! I think that Li Yinglong and I were friends for eight years, and Mrs. Li and my wife were pregnant that year, and I discussed with Li Yinglong that if the children of the two families were born and they were girls, they would be sisters; They are all boys, so let them be brothers; If it is a man and a woman, let them be married. Unexpectedly, my wife gave birth to two daughters in one child, and Mrs. Li gave birth to two sons in one child, so your two girls are cheaper than the two sons of the Li family. At that time, the Li family had a big business, a herd of mules and horses, and was the richest man in Luoyang, and I was very satisfied. But now that the Li family is poor and destitute, how can I be willing? ”

Wu Jin said fiercely: "Outside, the amount is small, not a gentleman, non-toxic and not a husband." Now, why don't you give Li Huaiyu to ...... Well......? Wu Jin shook his hand and drew it on his neck, signaling to kill Li Huaiyu.

Wu Chenggong was overjoyed in his heart, but he deliberately pretended to reprimand Wu Jin, and said: "Wu Jin, how can I Wu Chenggong do such a heinous and heinous thing?" Isn't that an unrighteousness to me? ”

Wu Jin said bitterly: "Outside the staff, people are not for themselves, and the heavens and the earth will be destroyed." For the sake of the happy life of the two young ladies in the future, you must be ruthless and kill Li Huaiyu. Besides, you can only blame him for his thin life, who taught him to be born at the wrong time? ”

Wu Chenggong was completely relieved of Wu Jin's heart at this time, so he blurted out his long-planned plan: "Wu Jin, since this is the case, then I will reward you with ten taels of silver, you wait until the dead of night, sneak back to the house, select a sharp steel knife from the armory, enter the library and kill Li Huaiyu with a knife, and throw the body into the dry well in the garden." When it is done, I will reward you with a great ......"

Wu Jin regarded wealth as his life, accepted the ten taels of silver, and sneaked back to Wu's mansion triumphantly. Wu Chenggong, who hid a knife in his smile and a honey-bellied sword, also got on his horse and ran towards Luoyang City. That's how it used to be.

In the sky, suddenly dark clouds obscured the full moon. Between heaven and earth, it was pitch black, and I couldn't see my fingers.

Wu Jin touched all the way to the front of the stable, and the swing knife was "poofed" on the edge of the manger...... He shook his ...... twice and shouted in a low voice, "Humph! Wu Lai, it turns out that you are hiding here. I advise you to get out immediately, if you don't come out, I'm welcome! ”
