Liu Jian's place of stay, not far from the position of the envoy, although he is tired, Liu Jian is unable to sleep, the lights of the rising will illuminate his bedroom, in order to take care of him, Honglu Temple here specially added a carbon basin here, although the weather is still warm at this time, but Liu Jian is weak, it is natural to add a little warmth to the room. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Liu Jian leaned on the couch, occasionally coughing a few times, holding a book in his hand, and was reading carefully.

In fact, his mind was a little scattered, and the palace seemed to convey a little meaning recently, and began to gradually activate him, and since the appearance of the Tile Thorn, this signal has become more and more obvious, first to ask him to enter the palace to discuss politics, and then to let him preside over the matter of welcoming the Tile Thorn envoy.

You must know that the palace let Liu Jian go home to recuperate, and did not revoke his position as a scholar, so Liu Jian is not a scholar, but now, the palace has begun to let Liu Jian do things, although he has not yet been allowed to enter the cabinet on duty, but this also means that the palace has not recognized Liu Jian as 'sick', and it is only a matter of time before he recovers.

For the hints in the palace, how could Liu Jian not feel it? Only now, he hesitated.

He is indeed not young, he has been a bachelor for ten years, and he has done a lot of things, Liu Jian even thinks that Sai Weng is not a blessing if he loses his horse, and he is now at this time Zhishi can be regarded as a rapid retreat, and after recuperating at home for so many days, this fame and fortune can't help but look down on it.

So for the signal released from the palace, he didn't want to try, but felt a little physically and mentally exhausted. But at the moment he is most worried about the Tatar envoys, now the deputy envoy is seriously injured and died, the Tatars will be investigated, the Ming Dynasty will definitely compromise, the Tatars are no different from the thorns, they are all jackals, if they are aggressive through this matter, how should the Ming Dynasty respond? Do you really give meat to feed the wolves?

Thinking of this, Liu Jian was even more worried, and put down the book absentmindedly, when suddenly, a voice came in, it was a very slight creak, and it seemed that the door downstairs had opened.

Not only that, but there is also the sound of tiptoeing, this sound is very low, inaudible, although Liu Jian is old, but his ears have always been sensitive, but he can hear movement.

He sat cross-legged on the couch, his eyes sharpened, and the old man with white hair was not nervous at all, but his face was a little more stern.

The attic was quiet, Liu Jian listened with a solemn face, this movement was no more, but he had a feeling that a pair of murderous eyes were staring at him in some unknown corner.

There is a murderous aura!

Liu Jian sneered and suddenly shouted: "Who is it?" ”

This voice is full of energy, not only knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, but also calling for the guards downstairs to wake up.

But the guards downstairs didn't move at all, but a person slowly walked out from behind the screen in this room.

Confucian shirt and scarf, long eyebrows and red lips, eyes like stars, even the walking posture is a little elegant, although it is men's clothing, but it still can't hide the grace of this beauty, but the soft hair like fat and jade is holding a dagger.

The dagger was a foot long, and under the light of the bean-sized lamp, the edge was shining.

"You?" Liu Jian was calm, but he couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his eyes: "Are you the scholar who came in with Lian Guogong?" ”

"It's me." Li Ruofan's face was a little proud, and he said, "Elder Li Ge may not have thought of it." ”

Liu Jian was not interested in answering Li Ruofan's question, his face was solemn, and he said with a blue face: "You are a person from Lian Guogong?" ”

At his age, he has reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, although he will say when he meets people, he doesn't care about mundane things anymore, but at this time he thought of a possibility, but he still couldn't help but worry, Liu Chengfeng brought this person in, could it be that Liu Chengfeng is the mastermind? If this is the case, this Liu Chengfeng is really a wolf's ambition, but this guy is still a favorite of the Son of Heaven, and he has real power in Jinyiwei, not to mention that he also has huge wealth, if this person has bad intentions, the consequences will be extremely serious.

Li Ruofan smiled, still with that arrogant and awe-inspiring smile, in the slang of the market, this Li Ruofan is a person whose tail is about to reach the sky, her eyes flashed with a trace of contempt, and said lightly: "Liu Chengfeng?" He...... It's just a pawn, but then again, if it weren't for him, my partner and I wouldn't be here. Through a window, you can see an attic next door, the attic on the opposite side is secluded, there is no fire, Li Ruofan can't help but say: "Presumably at this time, the Tatar envoy has also died, Liu Gong, I have heard your name for a long time when I was outside the gate, and at that time I was thinking, if the tile thorn also has a virtuous appearance like you, the clansmen are afraid that it will be better." ”

"But......" Li Ruofan's beautiful face became cold, and he said lightly: "It's just a pity that the Han and the thief don't stand together, but now I have to kill you." ”

Liu Jian breathed a sigh of relief, he was not afraid of death, at his age, he was planning more for the aftermath, only then he suspected that Liu Chengfeng might be the mastermind behind the scenes, now it seems that these assassins are just using Liu Chengfeng, at least ...... Even if he died, there was no serious trouble in the court.

Are you going to die......

Liu Jian sighed softly, like an old horse on the verge of death, and a trace of sadness finally passed in his eyes.

Once upon a time, he was high-spirited, the first in his youth, he also met the woman he loved, he also cried for others, laughed for others, lived for decades, the past is vivid, but now, everything is over.

Liu Jian sighed softly and said, "If you kill me, are you confident that you can escape?" ”

Li Ruofan smiled: "If I can kill you, I have no regrets." ”

Liu Jian smiled and said: "I can't imagine that when the old man is now at this age, when he is overwhelmed, there are still people who are worried, I really don't know whether to be happy or sad." ”

Li Ruofan had already raised his blade and approached, and said slowly: "In the desert, the old jackals are useless, they will be thrown away by the wolves, and the same is true of my people, as you Han people say, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and a generation of new people is better than the old people; But in my opinion, an old Liu Jian should not be underestimated, so Liu Gong must die today. ”

The dagger was sharp, raised high, and with a coquettish reprimand, the dagger swept through a perfect arc and stabbed towards Liu Jian fiercely.

The beautiful figure stepped forward, and at this moment, suddenly, a figure suddenly swept past from behind the bed, and a long knife stabbed at Li Ruofan.

The sudden change really made Li Ruofan not expect that her dagger was not long, but the other party's sharp blade had already deceived her chest, if she sent one more point, she would definitely die.

Li Ruofan had to turn around to avoid this killer sword, and barely stood firm, only to find that a person was standing in front of Liu Jianjian.

Li Ruofan recognized this person.

The burly figure, the tiger's back and bear's waist, and the water chestnut on his face are distinct, which is Gao Qiang who is serving by Liu Chengfeng's side.

"Is that you?"

Li Ruofan bit his lip and said angrily.

Gao Qiang didn't make a sound, because at this time, the sound of boots trampling sounded in the corridor, and then, the door opened, and a young man like a jewel came in, who was not Liu Chengfeng?

Liu Chengfeng pursed his lips and chuckled, looked at Li Ruofan and said, "Miss Li came to Liu Gong in the middle of the night to beg for tea, which is quite Wei and Jin, but although this move is elegant, it is unwise. ”

Li Ruofan was stunned for a moment, his pretty face was slightly red, and he said coldly: "It turns out that you have long expected that I am the real assassin?" ”

Liu Chengfeng sighed and said, "I always wanted Miss Li to be my bosom friend, but ......"

"But what?" I have to say that Li Ruofan's indifferent appearance is still very good-looking.

Liu Chengfeng said: "I am a beautiful woman, why should I be a thief." ”

Li Ruofan was stunned for a moment, and the frost on his face actually melted a little, but he still said lightly: "Everyone is their own master, and the thieves are not separated, if you are a thorn, maybe we can do ......."

Liu Chengfeng sneered, with **naked contempt, this smile almost stung Li Ruofan's self-esteem, so that Li Ruofan couldn't help but brush his messy hair, Liu Chengfeng said proudly: "It's a pity that I'm a Han, you are a thief." ”

Li Ruofan sighed and said, "This is how Lian Guogong looks at me? ”

This whisper actually made Liu Chengfeng's heart ache faintly, and the more this was the case, the colder Liu Chengfeng's face became, and said, "Are you tied up, or let my people do it?" ”

As he spoke, there was already a cacophony of noise coming from under the two attics, and countless people were holding torches to surround the place, and a group of people had already rushed into the attic.

Li Ruofan regained his arrogance and said slowly: "If I don't tie my hands and arrest me, could it be that Lian Guogong really wants to kill me?" ”

Liu Chengfeng's face twitched, and he almost jumped out of a sentence - kill him.

But the next moment, Li Ruofan suddenly smiled, and said with a smile: "It's easy to catch me if you want me to tie my hands, but there is something I want to ask you for." ”

Liu Chengfeng said: "You want to ask, how did I see your thorns?" ”

Li Ruofan didn't say anything more, Liu Chengfeng had already answered the question for him.

Liu Jian, who was sitting on the couch, also got off the ground with his shoes at this moment, and glanced at Liu Chengfeng with faint curiosity in his heart.

Liu Chengfeng said lightly: "Since Miss Li wants to hear it, then I might as well tell the truth, everyone will quit and pour tea, only Miss Li, Liu Gong and Gao Qiang will be left here." ”

As soon as he gave the order, the captains who rushed in looked at each other, and no one knew what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of this servant, but they still retreated like a tide.
