The other party's cold thin lips kissed her lips, Ling Xiu'er was light, and was picked up by Cao Yu and put on the bed, she froze and looked at the man in front of her, tears hanging on her cheeks.

"The walls have ears." The man leaned into her ear and whispered.

Ling Xiu'er bit her lip, her little hand tightly grasped the shirt in front of his chest, her white neck stretched forward, leaned in front of his ear, and whispered, "The person who is expected to be named on the gold list in the county as mentioned on the envelope must be made into rotten wood and not allowed to enter the examination room, so that Huang Shouren can win the first place, this is ...... Does the county lord mean? ”

Cao Yu nodded, he took off Ling Xiu'er's shoes and motioned for her to lie down, Ling Xiu'er still stepped back with her hands in front of his chest, making room for him, Cao Yu also took off her shoes and lay on the small bed.

He was next to Ling Xiu'er, his eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice: "It's the meaning of the county order, Huang Shouren just doesn't learn and has no skills on weekdays, and he can't be admitted to the official career, so he can only take these crooked ways." His eyes were full of contempt, and he snorted coldly, "Heh, I have already understood the questions, but I am still afraid that Huang Shouren will not be able to pass the exam, so I removed our candidates from the examination room." ”

"Then how could such a big gesture be made by the county order alone?" Ling Xiu'er frowned.

Cao Yu's eyes raised slightly, a little surprised that she could say such words that could see the situation clearly, he smiled: "It's still thoughtful, this matter is indeed not something that the county order can do, the water is very deep, so in order to hide people's eyes, they do it extremely secretively." ”

He squinted slightly, his mind going back to three years ago.

"Stop! Stand still and spare your life! Several black-clad men with masked faces brandished broadswords, and their black boots stepped on the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The scholar in the coarse cloth blue coat struggled to escape by grasping the strap of the back frame on his shoulders with both hands, and saw a bend.

He glanced back at the man in black behind him, turned and ran around the corner, only to find that there was a pile of debris at the end of his face, and there was no way out.

The man in black behind him was still some distance, he hurriedly wiped the sweat from his forehead, opened a straw mat in a panic and hid in.

Footsteps are getting closer.

Cao Yu squatted in the straw mat, his eyes looked out through the gap in the straw mat, and he took out a small short knife from his waist, he was afraid of encountering fierce beasts on the way to the school from the village, so he always carried a small dagger.

Gradually, he held his breath and saw the man in black appear in view.

"The stinky scholar ran so fast!" A gruff voice whined impatiently.

A shrewd voice sounded, "Don't worry, this is a dead end, he just came in and can't run there, you be careful to rummage through the clutter." ”

"Hmmm, boom." The debris was picked up by the tip of a knife and fell to the ground.

The two of them were getting closer and closer to him, Cao Yu tried to calm down, the hand holding the dagger was hidden in the pile of debris to the side to avoid being discovered, cold sweat oozed from the corners of his forehead, and he stared intently at the two men in black.

As they got closer, the tip of the knife landed on the haystack.

"Yo, hide here! Cao Shusheng, I'm sorry, when you go to the underworld, you have to remember to be reincarnated in the next life, don't be too smart. The man in black pressed the tip of his knife against Cao Yu's chin, beaming proudly, "Smart man, die quickly." ”

Cao Yu's eyes were calm, and his voice was indifferent, "Who wants to kill me?" ”

"The county lord wants to pave the way for his son, and you can only be a stepping stone." The rough man replied.

The thinner man's exposed eyes glared at the rough man, "Talk a lot." As he spoke, he raised his knife and was about to stab Cao Yu.

Cao Yu quickly withdrew the hand holding the knife and inserted it into the thin man's heart at the moment he lifted it, the handle of the knife rotated hard, and bright red blood flowed in the palm of his hand.

The thin man's eyes widened, "Dang~" The sword in his hand fell to the ground, and the rough man next to him saw this, grabbed the knife and stabbed Cao Yu hard.

Cao Yu jerked back the dagger inserted in the thin man's chest, blocking it in front of the thin man's body, the rough man's long knife stabbed into the thin man's chest, Cao Yu, who was hiding behind the thin man, went to the right side, and pushed the thin man's body forward, and the blood-stained long knife pierced his back.

The rough man on the opposite side was dumbfounded, the blood of his companion stuck to his hand like boiling water, the rough man immediately let go of the handle of the knife and pushed back, Cao Yu raised the dagger and stabbed the rough man's neck.

The rough man's eyes widened and he fell to the ground.

Cao Yu leaned straight against the wall with the book basket on his back, the hand holding the dagger hung down on the side of his leg, and when he lowered his eyes, he saw an envelope falling from the thin man's side, and he bent down to pick up the envelope on the ground with his bloodless hand.

He picked up the envelope and was about to open it, when he heard footsteps next to him, he paused, turned his head to look outside the alley, and saw a gorgeously dressed *** in a black robe at the mouth of the alley.

That person was none other than Huang Shouren.

In the dark night, he stood alone outside the alley, holding on to the wall with his right hand, and his voice trembled: "You... Are you Cao Yu? ”

Cao Yu's expression flashed slightly, and he quickly stuffed the envelope into his long sleeves.

"Huang Shouren." Instead of a question, a declarative sentence is used.

Not long ago, the next day, he was swaggering in the school as the eldest son of the county commander, and he never thought that this person would be the first obstacle to his entrance examination.

The cool breeze in the night was mixed with the strong smell of blood, and the miserable white cold moon looked even more permeating.

Huang Shouren stammered in a trembling voice: "You... You kill them. ”

Although Cao Yu was dressed in coarse cloth and blue, he looked like a scholar, but his appearance was not weak, he approached Huang Shouren step by step, his thin lips opened slightly, "If you don't want to die here, rot this matter in your stomach and don't say it, otherwise I will kill you immediately!" ”

"You, what do you want? I've got you covered. ”

"Don't trouble my family, I won't expose you."

Huang Shouren swallowed his saliva and nodded hurriedly: "Okay, okay, I won't trouble your family." ”

Afterwards, Cao Yu left the alley and returned to the village, and Huang Shouren disposed of the two.

After that, I heard that Huang Shouren was hit by Tanhua Yijin and returned to his hometown, but he didn't expect to see him again today.

Ling Xiu'er was lying on Cao Yu's chest, her fingers were circled, and her voice couldn't hear the emotion, "I didn't expect my husband to have such skills." ”

Cao Yu hugged the person in his arms tightly, "I thought that if I told the lady, you would be disgusted with me." ”

"How could I be disgusted with you?" She half-propped herself up, looked at the man's cheeks and said seriously: "They want your life, if you don't fight back, you will be the one who dies, and I will lose a good husband." You do it right, we are husband and wife, no matter what you do, as long as you live up to me, I will support you. ”

"You still say that I am flattering, and your sweet words are not small." Cao Yu pressed Ling Xiu'er's head and kissed her on the forehead, "Thank you, Xiu'er." ”

Ling Xiu'er wrapped her hands around his neck, leaned on his chest and shook her head, "There is no need to say thank you between husband and wife. ”

Cao Yu raised his lips and smiled, how could he have such a good wife, and his heart couldn't help but be moved.

The big hand slipped down Ling Xiu'er's waist, he gently pulled the clothes belt, Ling Xiu'er buried his head deeper, only to feel that the rope at the back of his neck was untied, his upper body was slightly cool, and his hot palm fell on his body.

She trembled slightly, leaned into his ear and whispered softly, "Xianggong." ”

Tonight, the moon is shining.
