Xiao Buyi saw Li Caiyu leaving, but did not immediately turn back to the room.

After closing his eyes for a moment, he suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of the big tree in the courtyard, Xiao Buyi asked softly, "You are the one who eats rice?" ”

The woman in black walked out from behind the tree, and surprise flashed in her eyes, "Xiao Buyi is really a hero, a hero who is invincible!" ”

Xiao Buyi smiled a little bitterly, and said in his heart that although he heard that there was another person on the roof and thought that it might be Chai Shao, he didn't realize that the woman in black also came here. If he hadn't been alert when he sent Li Caiyu out, he wouldn't have known when the woman in black would sneak into his room. Of course, the woman in black must have arrived a long time ago, otherwise she would not have said the eight words that Li Caiyu once said, heroic and invincible.

With some amusement in his heart, Xiao Buyi suddenly asked, "Eating rice, do you know that you have changed a lot?" ”

The woman in black was unfazed and replied with an 'oh'.

Xiao Buyi smiled: "When I talked to you in the past, I really felt that it was not much different from talking to wood. What now...... Wood has a little emotion, and he knows the sarcasm of mockery. ”

"Since I left the school, I have seen countless masters......," the woman in black said suddenly.

Xiao Buyi nodded, "People are divided into groups, and things are gathered by like, you are a master, and it is not surprising that there are masters around you, this is like an ant who only thinks that it is infinitely powerful in its kind, but never knows how high a goshawk can fly." ”

The woman in black was puzzled, "What do you want to say?" ”

Xiao Buyi smiled: "What I want to say is that before I practiced martial arts, I thought that I had excelled in those two times. But the more you learn martial arts, the more you can find that you are just a frog at the bottom of the well, and you can feel the insignificance of a drop in the ocean. I'm just thinking about how unfathomable a master can teach an apprentice like you! ”

The woman in black stood alone under the tree, looking up at the silver hook in the sky, the moonlight was as smooth as satin, shrouded in a faint smoke, ethereal.

"I only know that in this world, many problems cannot be solved by martial arts alone." The woman in black's tone was also a little ethereal, "For example, me...... Your current enemy is Huangfu Wuyi, will assassinating him solve the problem? The woman in black didn't wait for Xiao Buyi to answer, and had already replied: "Of course not, if you can solve it like this, I can help you out, it's not easy to kill Yang Guang, but it's still very simple to kill Huangfu Wuyi, but you obviously won't do it!" Because you are facing the power that He represents, and the power that is ready to support you. At this time, he is a killer and shows martial arts, and in the eyes of others, he may always be just a reckless martial artist, rather than the ideal candidate for these gate lords......"

Xiao Buyi fell silent for a while, and then said: "I always thought you were just a swordsman, but I didn't expect you to compare ...... More than anyone else. ”

The woman in black said lightly: "In addition to practicing the sword now, the rest of the time is to miss you." ”

Xiao Buyi could only touch his nose, "Miss me?" Actually, I'm not as ...... as you think."

"I'm wondering how complicated you are...... And not feelings. The woman in black was straightforward and unabashed.

Xiao Buyi put down his hand and breathed a sigh of relief, "The moon is so round tonight...... What you said is right, you can even think about peerless swordsmanship, as long as you think about many things and ponder them, you must understand them more deeply than others. This kind of thing is just a matter of wanting to do it and not wanting to do it. ”

The woman in black ignored his words in the clouds, or got used to his thinking, "I don't know if it's natural, or if it's the environment, you have the talent of a king, now you just need to show them this talent." Huangfu Wuyi is a stumbling block for you, everyone is waiting to see how you move him, you used a method that made me, the people of the Eastern Capital, all the soldiers, and even more appreciated by the Shi clan, and you defeated him by showing weakness. ”

"Sounds profound." Xiao Buyi sighed: "I'm actually not as complicated as you think, how can I feel that after your analysis, I feel that I am cunning and do all kinds of evil." ”

"The world is weaker than water, and no one can win, what I am saying is just a fact." The woman in black said in a deep voice: "There are by no means so few masters in the world, but the higher the martial arts, the higher the surname, but it is not good to chase fame and fortune." There are very few people who can do martial arts like you, and they participate in the competition for fame and fortune, and even fewer people who have martial arts like you, but know how not to win with martial arts. You moved the people and soldiers of the Eastern Capital, and then slowly wrapped the Eastern Capital with the same weakness as water, and then let the scholars see the power of water, unconsciously accept you, choose you, and when the water floods the Eastern Capital, you don't even need to do it yourself, the stone of Huangfu Wuyi will naturally be washed away by the water, and you can naturally get what you want without fighting the soldiers of the people. ”

"It's easy to say, but it's hard to do." Xiao Buyi sighed and said, "But how can you wash away this stone, I don't know if you can figure it out for me?" ”

The woman in black shook her head, "That's something you should ponder." ”

Xiao Buyi smiled bitterly, and said in his heart that he may have the talent of a king, but this has the potential to be an orator, so he can only put forward slogans, but he can't put forward specific solutions, "Then I don't know why you came late at night, what are you doing?" You can't tell me about water, right? ”

"I heard night walkers coming." The woman in black replied, "So let's take a look at the movement." ”

"Are you afraid I'll be slaughtered?"

"If someone can kill you, of course I'm going to take a good look at who." The woman in black said indifferently.

Xiao Buyi shook his head, and suddenly remembered something, "By the way, although some things can't be solved with martial arts, some things are best solved with martial arts." ”

The woman in black frowned and said, "What to do?" ”

"Have you seen Li Mi?"

"Well, Xiangyang City has seen it."

"Do you think you and him are superior in martial arts?"

The woman in black thought for a while this time, "I'm not sure I'll kill him." ”

"That's true," Xiao Buyi nodded, "A high martial artist doesn't necessarily mean a qualified killer, and a killer doesn't necessarily have to be a good martial artist." You said you would ask me for one thing later, so now I can ask you for anything? ”

"Yes, but not everything." The woman in black replied.

Xiao Buyi blushed a little, and said in an instant: "Can I ask you to kill Li Mi?" ”

The woman in black barely hesitated, "Yes." She turned to leave, Xiao Buyi hurriedly greeted her, "What are you doing?" ”

"Of course I'm going to kill Li Mi!"

Xiao Buyi smiled bitterly: "Do you know that you are likely to lose your life in this assassination?" ”

"Yes." The woman in black looked back at Xiao Buyi, her eyes were like water, "But I also know that you are a character who promises a lot of money, do you feel that you owe me a lot now?" ”

Xiao Buyi nodded, "That's true, I'd rather owe people money than love." ”

The woman in black said lightly: "If I assassinate Li Mi and die this time, even if it is not successful, you must feel that you owe me a lot, and you will probably be able to agree to my request at that time." ”

Xiao Buyi couldn't help but ask, "If you die, how can I know what you ask for?" Why don't you just say what you want now? ”

The woman in black shook her head and said, "The time has not come, what's the use of saying it?" Rest assured, even if I die, sooner or later you will know about my request. ”

Seeing that the woman in black was leaving, Xiao Buyi finally gave up lobbying, and said helplessly: "Wait, I said I wanted to kill Li Mi, but I don't need to rush for a while." You are such a useful person, of course I am still reluctant to let you die so soon, to kill Li Mi, we have to think of a careful plan. ”

The woman in black nodded and said indifferently, "Listen to it." ”

**

Xiao Buyi thought about it for a few days and didn't figure out how to kill Li Mi, Li Mi is undoubtedly a master, at the beginning in Xiangyang City, it was rare for Xu Shiji and Pei Bei to kill him with such a careful plan, of course he couldn't think of a better way for a while.

Let's not talk about the thousands of guards around Li Mi, let's just say that Li Mi himself is invincible, he can rescue two of his subordinates from under the locust-like crossbow arrows, and he can jump off Xiangyang City with two of his subordinates unscathed, which is a terrifying thing in itself, but Li Mi really did it. Afterwards, Xu Shiji and Pei Bei both shook their heads and sighed and said that Li Mi was really cunning and difficult to kill.

is such a person, of course he doesn't worry about letting the woman in black deal with it, he made this suggestion for two purposes, one is to know the secret of the woman in black, and the other is to test whether she has anything to do with Li Mi.

But for now, it seems that he has wasted his efforts. The woman in black said that she missed him when she was fine, and when he was fine, she kept thinking about the intricate relationships around her. Whether Taiping Dao is friend or foe, he still doesn't know anything. The only thing he can know is that every time Taiping Dao makes a move, it is earth-shattering and unexpected.

Since you can't kill Li Mi, it's better to think about how to deal with Huangfu Wuyi. People just have a lazy surname, when they returned to Luocang and was besieged, King Yue respected him as much as he respected his ancestors, but Xiao Buyi has now discovered that ancestor worship is not a daily business. Since returning to Luocang to relieve the siege, in the past two days, King Yue has lost his original enthusiasm for him.

However, although King Yue was lukewarm to Xiao Buyi, there were not a few people who came to visit Xiao Buyi in the past two days. Xiao Buyi is a familiar stranger to Dongdu, his time in Dongdu is actually not long, but every time he comes to Dongdu, Dongdu and him have changed a lot.

The Eastern Capital became more and more depressed, and his Xiao cloth became more and more popular.

Only a few court officials were sent away, including doctors and Langzhong, of course they didn't treat him, the purpose of their coming was very simple, thank General Xiao for recapturing Luocang and doing his best to defend the eastern capital. Of course, the deeper intention is to make a familiar face in front of Xiao Buyi first, and if anything changes in the future, I hope that Xiao Buyi will remember himself, these people are all middle- and lower-level figures among the Beijing officials, and it can be said that they have always been depressed, and when the situation is turbulent, of course, they can be the first to muster up the courage to survive and change.

When Xiao Buyi was holding the tea and taking a breath, Lu Laosan hurriedly came and sent a message of worship: "Boss Xiao, someone is asking to see you again." "Xiao Buyi knew that the trip to the Eastern Capital was very sinister, and it was very rare to be led by people. After arriving in the Eastern Capital with Pei Mingcui and the woman in black, the five bat brothers also came to the Eastern Capital, of course, there are many secret forces arranged by Yuan Lan, but they are not easily exposed, at least they maintain unimpeded communication in terms of communication, which requires very delicate work. Xiao Buyi has always taken the five brothers with him, and the main point is that the five brothers have their own strengths and are well-informed. He is ready to slowly transfer manpower to the Eastern Capital to deal with the current situation, but at present, it seems that the middle and lower level generals in the Eastern Capital should also be the target of his focus. As long as you have their support in the turmoil, the power to erupt must not be ignored.

After taking the post, Xiao Buyi glanced at it and asked with some confusion, "Eldest grandson Heng'an?" Who is he? ”

"The eldest grandson Hengan is a member of the eldest grandson family, and his father is the eldest grandson Sheng."

Xiao Buyi raised his eyebrows slightly, of course Changsun Sheng knew that Changsun Sheng had a great contribution to the division of the Turks. After the death of Changsun Sheng, Yang Guangcai handed over the matter of dealing with the Turks to Pei Ju. When he frowned and thought about the eldest grandson Heng'an's intentions, Lu Laosan continued: "The eldest grandson Sheng has three sons, the eldest son and eldest grandson Xingbu died early when he resisted Yang Liang's rebellion. Boss Xiao, I think most of them think that you are strong now and want to take refuge in you. ”

When Xiao Buyi heard Eldest Sun Wuji, he finally thought of something, "Eldest Sun Sheng also has a daughter named Eldest Sun Wuji, right?" ”

"Boss Xiao, do you know?" Lu Laosan was not surprised, and secretly thought that only a handsome and dashing character like Boss Xiao could be left and right, and it was not surprising to know more women.

Xiao Buyi already understands why the eldest grandson Hengan came, the eldest grandson Wujian is Li Shimin's fiancée, the relationship between the eldest grandson family and the Li family can be said to be excellent, this eldest grandson Hengan came to him, of course, he also came to intercede for the Li family!

"Please come in, Eldest Sun Heng'an."

Lu Laosan went out in response, followed by a middle-aged man after a while, with a good demeanor, after seeing Xiao Buyi, he rushed forward a few steps and said: "General Xiao is well, the eldest grandson Heng'an has admired his name for a long time, and he hates not having the opportunity to see each other." Today, I can see that I am fortunate to have three lives. ”

The eldest grandson Hengan spoke softly and behaved decently, which made people feel good in their hearts at first sight.

Xiao Buyi thought, if Lao Tzu hadn't detained the Li family, I'm afraid you wouldn't have time to hide from me, right?

"Brother Eldest Grandson has won the award, please take a seat. The third child, hurry up and serve fragrant tea. ”

The eldest grandson Hengan hurriedly said: "General Xiao really killed me, I think I'm just a few years older, how dare I call me a brother, General Xiao just call me Heng'an." ”

Xiao Buyi smiled and said, "Then I don't know what Heng'an is here?" ”

He got straight to the point, and the eldest grandson Hengan was a little caught off guard, and hesitated and said: "I just said below that I came here only because I have admired General Xiao's name for a long time, so I came to visit, and I asked General Xiao to forgive me for being presumptuous." ”

He spoke modestly, and could even be said to be humble, but Xiao Buyi felt that this kid was always playing false, but it was not awkward. After a few words of greeting with him, the eldest grandson Hengan presented a gift slip with both hands, and said with a smile: "When I met General Xiao for the first time, I was a little polite, but it was not a respect." ”

Xiao Buyi casually flipped through it, and saw that Bo Li was very heavy, and a smile appeared, "Hengan is too polite, I don't know what to order?" ”

The eldest grandson Hengan stood up and waved his hand again and again, "Don't dare to take the order, General Xiao is willing to accept it, it is already very good." ”

Xiao Buyi couldn't help laughing, "If you have a gift to accept, why should you refuse?" ”

The eldest grandson, Heng'an, saluted again, "Thank you so much General Xiao." Knowing that General Xiao was busy with official business, he didn't dare to disturb him more, so he took his leave first. ”

After the eldest grandson Hengan left, Lu Laosan straightened his eyes and muttered: "What kind of way does this person have, come and give a gift and leave?" Is there something wrong? ”

Xiao Buyi frowned and said, "This person is not wrong, but very smart." The third child, call the fifth child to come, let's go out for a walk, and the whole house will be moldy. ”

Lu Laosan was shocked and said, "Okay! ”

**

The eldest grandson Hengan left the General's Mansion without delay on the way, and went straight back to the eldest grandson's mansion. There are two people sitting in the hall, one of them is a jade tree in the wind, and he is a little similar to the eldest grandson Heng'an, but he is much younger. The other person is equally handsome, with three strands of long hair, although he is not young, but he is more elegant and stable than the eldest grandson Hengan. It's just that this person's eyebrows are slightly locked, and there is always a faint sadness in his eyes.

Seeing the eldest grandson Heng'an turn around, the older man asked, "Heng'an, how are things going?" ”

"Just looking at the second brother's relaxed expression, I know that this trip should not be bad." The young man smiled.

The eldest grandson, Heng'an, bowed respectfully to the elderly, "Uncle, according to your instructions, I have already presented the gift list to Xiao Buyi, but why don't we explain our intentions?" ”

The elder sighed softly, "Why do we have to explain what we mean? Xiao Buyi is very smart, and he has a delicate relationship with Tang Guogong, he has a good relationship with the people, and he should know our intentions. So why bother? He shouldn't embarrass us, we send the gifts, and we just hope that he can stay out of the way when it matters. ”

But Xiao Buyi refused to pick jade...... Moreover, in the court, he suggested that King Yue kill the Li family, and all the people in Longguang Hall heard it clearly. I'm just afraid that if he asks for a position, he will choose to do whatever it takes. The eldest grandson Hengan said.

The older man shook his head and said: "Sometimes refusal is just to retreat into advance, Caiyu was reckless this time, but she was also too anxious, and she was too concerned about it, which caused the situation today." You must know that Xiao Buyi knew the current situation, and he deliberately said that he would be beheaded in the court, most likely knowing that the emperor would definitely oppose it, but he temporarily saved the Li family. ”

The eldest grandson Hengan frowned and said, "Does he really have such a scheming? ”

The young man smiled and said: "Second brother, don't underestimate Xiao Buyi, you must know that in the past three years, Xiao Buyi's fame has not been for nothing, and now everyone who underlooks him has a desolate end." The people of the world said to me, "Don't touch his scales, my uncle asked you to give gifts for no other purpose, but to show our respect, for the convenience of our actions." As long as Xiao Buyi ignores this matter, we should be eighty percent sure of saving the Li family from the east. ”

The young man is called the second brother of the eldest grandson Hengan, and he is naturally the third son of the eldest grandson, the eldest grandson Wuji.

The older man nodded, "What Wuji said is not wrong at all, in fact, Xiao Buyi should also know that if there is chaos today, there are many forces, and Tang Guogong and him will temporarily ally benefit each other." He pushed the boat to show his kindness, and I gave him a gift to thank him. We know each other well and just maintain this delicate relationship. Now that Xiao Buyi has saved the Li family for the time being, Huangfu Wuyi has helped us in order to fight Xiao Buyi, so now as long as we get through the relationship between Huangfu Wuyi, it is definitely not difficult to send the Li family out of the east. Cai Yu didn't know the mystery of this, he just thought that Xiao Buyi's ability was monstrous, and he couldn't help but ask Xiao Buyi for help. Thinking that Xiao Buyi had already made a stand in the imperial court, how could he go back on her word for her, it was just boring to pick jade. ”

The eldest grandson Hengan suddenly said: "I see." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji asked: "Uncle, if there are many forces today, according to my opinion, Guanzhong, Xiangyang, Hebei, and Southeast should be the most important." Li Mi is in the land of the four wars, it should be a dead end, Xiao Buyi first occupied Xiangyang, and now he is plotting the eastern capital, and Li Mi is even more famous in the world when he retreats from Luocang, he is really a great obstacle to Tang Gong's entry into the Central Plains...... I don't know if Tang Gong has a good strategy to deal with him? ”

The older man sighed lightly, "Mowgli, I don't know what is going on today, now I should focus on forming alliances, the world must have a clear power, and it must be a few years old. "He's analyzed it thoroughly, and it's obviously quite a clever man, but it's a little uninteresting.

The two eldest grandsons, the Wuji brothers, glanced at each other and asked in unison, "Then I don't know what my uncle is commanding right now?" ”

The older man pondered for a moment, "Heng'an, Wuji, it's inconvenient for me to show up, you should immediately go to Huangfu Wuyi's mansion with generous gifts, euphemism, analysis of the benefits, presumably it is not difficult to convince Huangfu Wuyi." This matter should be done sooner rather than later. ”

The two brothers bowed and retreated, but the older man sat in the chaise longue, looked out the window, and sighed softly......

Although Xiao Buyi said that he was out of the general's mansion to walk, he still went to the general's house with Lu Laosan and Lao Wu, and there were many people who gave gifts to the imperial court, Xiao Buyi converted the gift into copper money, received it with his left hand, and sent it out with his right hand, and the families of the soldiers were naturally grateful, and when it was noon, Xiao Buyi took the two brothers to prepare for dinner, they were wearing ordinary clothes, and they were deliberately low-key, with felt hats, but few people recognized.

Tongyuan City is not far from where they are, Xiao Buyi was about to take the two brothers to find a restaurant to drink, but saw two tall horses galloping across the long street, and immediately both of them were equally handsome. Xiao Buyi knew that one person was the eldest grandson Hengan, and flashed to the side, but the eldest grandson Hengan was in a hurry, but he didn't pay attention to Xiao Buyi.

"Who's that young man right now?" Xiao Buyi asked casually.

Lu Laosan recognized it just by looking at it, "That's the eldest grandson Wuji, Boss Xiao, what is the eldest grandson Hengan going to do?" ”

Xiao Buyi smiled, "It's mostly a gift, the eldest grandson brother really deserves his reputation." ”

Lu Laosan only thought that this name was worthy of the legend because of his appearance, and said with a smile: "Although they are handsome, they lack the toughness of Boss Xiao, if I were a woman, I would definitely marry Boss Xiao, not marry that kind of oily person." ”

Lao Wu laughed, "If you are a woman, I am only afraid that Xiao Lao will run away." ”

The three of them all laughed, Xiao Buyi knew that Lu Laosan had misunderstood, and he didn't explain, and the two brothers were just about to start, when suddenly a black-faced person passed by in a hurry and almost hit the fifth child. Lao Wu dodged and shouted, "Be careful." ”

The man turned his head to look, was slightly stunned, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry." ”

After he apologized, he left in a hurry, and Lu Laosan asked, "Old Five, check your things, don't be caught by thieves." Lao Wu shook his head, "He's not a thief, it should be an unintentional mistake." The two brothers saw Xiao Buyi turn his head to look at the man's back in an instant, with doubts in his eyes, and they all asked, "Boss Xiao, is there something wrong with this person?" ”

Xiao Buyi suddenly thought of something, and said in a lost voice: "Why is it?" How did he come to the Eastern Capital? ”

"Boss Xiao, do you know this person?" Lu Laosan was surprised.

Xiao Buyi groaned: "I always feel like a person, why does he avoid me?" Old Five, you go and follow that person, see what he does, find out where he is located, and notify me immediately. Be careful, though, and try not to let the person notice you're following. ”

Lao Wu answered and walked away, Lu Laosan frowned and wanted to ask, but he didn't dare. Xiao Buyi groaned: "Third child, don't you think that person is very familiar? Although he deliberately blackened his face? ”

Lu Laosan groaned: "You said that you and I know this person? Seeing Xiao Buyi nodding, he suddenly thought of something, and Lu Laosan lost his voice and said, "Could he be Wen Yuzhou, the young master of the Dark Angel?" ”

(To be continued)
