Chapter 223: A Woman Like the Wind
Li also kicked the head of the Hu Tong, and hurriedly jumped on the stool, muttering incessantly, so that he was not embarrassed.
I have never experienced such a scene, I watched Hu Tong's head fall to the ground, and at this moment, the headless body was bleeding, and fell to the ground with a few thuds, and blood was suddenly sprinkled on the ground.
I didn't eat much food on the table, and Li also glanced at it and had the urge to vomit, it was so fucking bloody, even if I had seen murder, but it was so cruel, it was really an eye-opener.
Qin County Ling was stupid directly, he never expected that the horse was setting up a Hongmen banquet this time, and he chose to make such a disturbance, there was a cadre of Hu Tong's guards outside, those guards were very famous, and they protected Hu Tong in danger many times, if this was seen, then it would be okay, this horse was so bold Is it to rebel?
And his appearance in the invitation made Qin County's head big for a while, is this horse going to kill himself together, or is it ...... At the moment, there are only two paths in front of him, if he is alive, he will poke this matter out, and the other way is to follow the colt with all his heart.
Of course, this is the premise of being alive, and since the horse is doing this, he will definitely not be allowed to poke things out, Qin County Ling knows that the horse must have a careful plan, if the horse does not kill him, he will definitely not have the opportunity to tell this matter, even if he says it, he will not be able to shake the power of the horse, and may even put himself in.
Dumbfounded, he could only use this adjective to power Hu Tong's current expression, Xu Chen saw that Hu Tong was dead, and he just frowned, and didn't say anything, just nodded to the man in black, and the man in black kicked the table over, ran to the railing, jumped to the top of the teahouse opposite, and deliberately kicked off a few tiles, and disappeared from sight after a while.
From cutting off Hu Tong's head to the assassin's escape, it was only a matter of moments, Qin County Ling didn't know when the man in black came in, he only saw a figure omitting down from the top of the building, and Hu Tong's head fell off when he landed.
"I believe you know what to do about it, and even if you dare to preach it, you will only suffer, understand?"
Xu Chen still had a glass of wine in his hand, and before he drank the third cup, Hu Tong was dead, and he felt a little unhappy, Qiu Ling was happy, but Lao Tzu hadn't enjoyed it yet! died like this, Xu Chen was too unwilling.
Still poured the wine down, and said this to Qin County, his tone was too calm, as if nothing had happened.
Qin County Ling was sober and abnormal at this time, seeing that Xu Juma was talking like this, and he didn't mean to kill himself, he knew that the horse was going to tie him to a boat, if he dared to poke this matter out, or report it to Yang Guozhong, he would die a miserable death, not to mention that Qin County Ling only had one mouth, and his words were unfounded, and he couldn't get strong evidence when he poked it out, and he couldn't get the slightest benefit, not to mention that with the current power of the donkey, since he dared to do such a thing, no one would dare to do anything to him.
"Catch the assassins, catch the assassins!" Qin Xian Ling only thought for a short while, and then shouted loudly.
This howl is also too loud, outside Hu Sanhe Gang is often drunk with a red face and thick neck, with the pride of the rivers and lakes to drink wine, naturally it is happy, very little pretentious, Hu Tong's several aftertastes are dizzy at this time, Hu San naturally has a number, although he drank a lot, but it did not reach his upper limit, I am afraid that if I drink too much, Hu Tong will not be able to explain.
But at that time, I heard the sound of laughter in the private room, and I was clearly drunk happily, and I just poured him like this, where can I parry, even if I can't reach the upper limit, it is also a critical point.
Hearing the heart-rending shout in the private room, the hall on the third floor, which was originally quite noisy, saluted down at the time, although Hu Tong's guards drank a little too much, but they all counted, besides, the voice of "catching the assassin" was too familiar, because Master Hu saw that he was assassinated, this hearing cheered up, Hu Sanyi slapped the table, and said: "It's not good, something happened!" ”
ran to the private room with an arrow step, and the moment he pushed the door open, he was dumbfounded.
A table of wine and food was all stained with blood, and several people in the room were shocked, looking for Hu Tong, they saw a headless corpse lying on the edge of the table.
Hu Sannai is a person in the rivers and lakes, so he naturally does not shy away from this kind of thing, and he has an ominous premonition in his heart, this headless corpse is dressed the same as Lord Hu, his expression suddenly became nervous, and when he went further, he saw that Hu Tong's head was still spinning in the corner of the table, and it was obvious that Li Ye kicked that kick just now.
"Oops!" Hu Sanyi sent his thighs, "How is this good!" It's too shocking, how can this good guy be killed? Master Hu has also experienced many assassinations, but he didn't expect to die on such an occasion.
Xu Chen and Li in the house were still pretending, but Li Ye was obviously not pretending, his face was a little pale, and the Qin County Commander directly had red circles in his eyes, his face turned red, and he pointed to the roof of the teahouse opposite, and said, "Go and catch the assassin!" Catch the Assassins! ”
At this time, several of Hu Tong's subordinates ran in, and Gang Chang also followed, and when he saw the headless corpse on the ground, he knew that this was the case, and Li had also instructed him several times to drag Hu Tong's subordinates outside, and Gang Chang naturally didn't dare to ask about specific things, just do what he was told, he had already thought of several methods, but it didn't take much effort, and now that he saw the corpse of Lord Hu, he could guess what happened.
That Hu San was already angry, and seeing the direction pointed by Qin County's order, he ordered his subordinates to say a few words, and flew to the top of the teahouse opposite, and then chased along the footprints deliberately left by Qiu Ling.
A team of officers and soldiers downstairs, because they saw a few tiles kicked off by the man in black from the roof of the building, saw a shadow, so they came up to ask, Qin County Ling scolded: "What are you still doing in a daze!" Give me all chasing! ”
Huhula is scattered, the officers and soldiers know that the assassin is obviously strong in martial arts, and Chang'an is so big, where to find it?
When everyone was sent to chase after this moment, only Xu Chen and the three of them were left in the private room.
Xu Chen really didn't want to stay here for a while, so he kicked Hu Tong's corpse and said to Qin County, who was trembling: "I'll give you an analysis of the situation in front of you first." Since I dare to kill Hu Tong, I naturally have the secret permission of others, if you poke me out, even if the emperor can do anything to me, I will definitely pull you into the water, and you will not get any benefits, of course, you also know that the emperor Lao'er believes that your surname may be very small, even if Yang Guozhong intervenes, it will not play much role.
However, if you do a good job in this case, I will enshrine the position of Jing Zhaoyin...... If you don't do it well, and the city is full of storms, I don't think you need to live. ”
After Xu Chen finished speaking, he walked out, Li had already stayed enough, seeing that Xu Chen was leaving, he rushed ahead with an arrow, and when he went out, he didn't forget to say: "Qin County Order, you have to think about it......"
Qin County Lingba sat on the chair with a butt, his face was extremely ugly, especially after listening to the sentence "I got someone else's secret permission" just now, I was surprised, whose secret promise, who can still secretly promise now, is it the emperor? The emperor wanted to reduce Yang Guozhong's wings, so he secretly promised to get rid of Hu Tong? Thinking about it, it is really possible, the future career of the horse is close to Yang Guozhong's status, this is naturally the old emperor has a plan, but killing Hu Tong is also a bit absurd, the emperor murdered the minister? It's obviously nonsense, and what the colt said is that someone has secretly agreed, and it is definitely not out of nowhere, so which party's interests are involved in this matter?
Dengshi's brain exploded, and the conversation between Hu Tong and him before his death can be seen that Hu Tong had assassinated the horse, and the two were very resentful, and the horse must have been assassinated by personal feelings, and Qin County's order suddenly came up with an idea, could it be that the emperor Lao'er intended to reduce Yang Guozhong's wings, and the horse just took advantage of the emperor's idea and the grudge with Hu Tong, and directly slaughtered Hu Tong?
So, if that's the case, poke this matter out, even if Yang Guozhong has a way, and the old emperor is there to protect him, it will definitely end up in the end, but even if the emperor Lao'er doesn't favor the horse, and the horse bites himself, how can the old emperor let go of his behavior?
However, the most important thing is that Qin County Ling did not plan to poke this matter out at all, he had long been tired of Yang Guozhong, and recently he has repeatedly shown favor to the concubine, and he has made efforts to provoke the relationship between the Yang family and the Cui family for the concubine, and the concubine has mixed himself in today, which is nothing more than a decision to use himself, there is no doubt about this, and the concubine has also promised a position of Jing Zhaoyin, which has made Qin County Ling decide.
After thinking about it for a long time, Qin Xian Ling finally had a purpose in his heart, so he slowed down his nervous mood and breathed a sigh of relief, and then he was startled when he saw the head of Hu Tong waiting for white eyeballs in the corner of the table.
"Look at what I did, and I didn't kill you, if you want to blame, blame your bad life, but offend such a colt, Lord Wu is easy to go!"
"Damn it, these grandsons are not diligent in their daily lives, and there is no figure running now, I don't know how to protect the scene of the crime!" ……
In the afternoon, the news of Hu Tong's killing had already spread, and Yang Guozhong was furious when he learned about it, and ordered martial law in the whole city to be arrested.
And this case is too confusing, and the news that the officials of the DPRK and China learned is that Hu Tong was killed at the banquet between the horse and the little prince, and his death was extremely strange, and his head was cut off by the assassin's sword, and the assassin was so strong in martial arts that he ran away after killing someone.
Since the news spread like this, everyone still believes in this case, because there are King Ning, Xu Juma and Qin County Commander present, and even the guards of Hu Tong's family are like this, plus Hu Tong is often assassinated, in fact, it did not cause much repercussions.
Most of the officials in the court still have a grudge against Hu Tong, and when this guy was a servant of the criminal department, he seemed to be upgraded to a cool official, and often engaged in some unjust, false and wrongful cases to kill all the officials who offended Yang Guozhong.
Most of the officials with a heart can guess the inner doorway, that Hu Tong has always hated the horse This is a well-known thing, the last time the horse was tied, since some people know that this Hu Tong is secretly cheating, but why did he go to the invitation of the horse this time? And the horse was idle and said that he was thanking Hu Tong for his great help in the kidnapping incident, which sounds too nonsense, if this thing is really done by the horse in secret, it can't help but be too terrifying, and even the court officials dare to kill it? Yang Guozhong dares to offend, what else does this don dare not do?
Xu Chen wantonly cut officials in the Ministry of War, and the promotion of officials has become a matter of his words until now, which naturally caused a lot of repercussions in the court, which were all secretly approved by the old emperor.
Yang Guozhong naturally won't look at this matter lightly, Hu Tong's death in his opinion is indeed related to the horse, and it is indeed unreasonable, Nima invited him to have a meal but was assassinated, and in such a downtown area, he was stabbed to death in front of the officers and soldiers, who believes it!
"I believe it!" When Qin County Ling was interrogated by Yang Guozhong, he said such a sentence, and Yang Guozhong meant that he wanted to make a big fuss about Hutong, Hutong could not die in vain, and it had to be useful if he died, so Yang Guozhong called Qin County Ling to the front, and kept hinting that Qin County Ling had made this matter bigger, and the spearhead could be pointed directly at Xu Yuma, and Qin County Ling had already made a plan, and this case had already been named by him, and he promised to do so verbally, in fact, he was pretending to be stupid.
Yang Guozhong obviously sensed the strangeness of this matter, if it was really the horse who did it, he would be impressed by the horse, the court officials dared to kill, did even Lao Tzu dare to move? !
But it is true that there is no effective evidence, there are several people present at the time, not to mention, with the power of this horse in Yang Yuhuan's heart, such a trap is obviously difficult to shake, and it is self-defeating if it is not done well, Yang Guozhong has to be careful.
But in his heart, he already believed that Xu Chen did it, and all the actions could only wait until the horse set out to fight.
When the old emperor learned the news, he was also shocked, he had already heard that this Hu Tong had been assassinated several times, and this time it was even worse, he was openly slaughtered in broad daylight, of course Li Longji could not sit idly by, that is, he ordered Yang Guozhong
Thoroughly investigate this matter, the impact is really too bad, and at the feet of the Son of Heaven, you have to do superficial things.
How to check the method, it depends on Prime Minister Yang's ability......
The next day, Xu Chen went to Qiu Ling's residence, and deliberately made seventy or eighty turns on the road, and only after confirming that there was no one did he enter the courtyard.
The reason why he came here early in the morning was because the turmoil caused yesterday was too big, although Xu Chen was not listed as a suspect, Yang Guozhong would suspect that he would find him on him, so he waited until dawn to come over.
There must be a turmoil, no matter how big Qin County's ability is, it is impossible to suppress this matter, after all, Hu Tong is an official of the imperial court, and he was cut off with a sword, and the impact is indeed very bad.
But on this day, the people of Chang'an learned the news, and the people all waved their hands and said that Hu Tong's reputation was too stinky, and it was indeed very happy that Yang Guozhong's number one dog tooth was killed, but there was such a popular version in the market:
The person who killed Hu Tong was a bloody case made by Hu Tong in the early years, killed an official family of thirty-six, but escaped a child, this child wandered into the rivers and lakes to learn a skill and lurked in the capital, has been waiting for the opportunity to kill Hu Tong, yesterday finally succeeded in tailgating in the restaurant, only a sword to let Hu Tong's head move, and the person who seeks revenge is extremely skillful, there are thousands of troops from the posture of taking the head of the general, after the killing, he flew away, it is said that there are those who are present, Even Wu Zhuangyuan's Xu Juma was helpless against the chivalrous man, and watched him run away.
This news was released, and the response was enthusiastic, but the controversy continued, and the main tangle point was to ruin Xu Chen's reputation, Xu Chen, as the image ambassador of the Tang Dynasty, was the first in the world in martial arts and the first in the world, and had already become the idol of thousands of girls in Chang'an, a model for the children of the family, and a well-known ability for women and children. Wait, how could our first colt of the Tang Dynasty be with Hu Tong's old thief? ”
As soon as the contradiction was rendered, this news instantly filled the capital, and later people only cared about whether Xu Juma could kill the chivalrous man, and ignored the tragic situation of Hu Tong being beheaded.
As for who released this news, Xu Chen can only tell you that only by controlling public opinion can you control the situation.
Since he expected that this case would not last long, the old emperor was surprised at first and maybe forgot about it after lunch, the emperor didn't care, and the people wouldn't pay attention to it for too long.
When Xu Chen entered the compound, he entered Qiu Ling's main hall, and often at this time, Qiu Ling hid behind the door and pulled out the light sword and put it on Xu Chen's neck, and he had long been used to it.
opened the door, but there was no familiar scene, Xu Chen leaned in, peeked left and right a few times, but did not find Qiu Ling.
There was a feeling of emptiness when he landed, is this Nizi gone?
Xu Chen hurriedly came out of the hall, walked to the west wing, pushed open the door, the room was neatly arranged and spotless, obviously Qiu Ling had already gotten up, usually, Qiu Ling would always get some breakfast to eat here, and there would be some dishes and chopsticks on the table, and obviously Qiu Ling had not eaten breakfast.
It should be gone, hehe, say goodbye without saying goodbye.
Maybe the chivalrous people on the rivers and lakes will always like this way, or perhaps, Qiu Ling is a woman like the wind......
Xu Chen shook his head, after getting along with Qiu Ling for so long, there will always be some friendship, not ambiguity, not friendship, but that unspeakable feeling, or from the emotion of kung fu extended to Qiu Ling's body, just for a moment.
Martial arts haven't been learned yet, Xu Chen thought about it, yes, Qiu Ling doesn't owe him anything, since she has fulfilled her long-cherished wish, it's okay to leave......
Xu Chen stayed for a while, just wanted to go back, and as soon as he walked to the door, he heard a "hey". Looking back, the woman standing in the morning breeze with her hair picked up was Qiu Ling...... (To be continued.) )
