Great Qin, the Mid-Autumn Festival of the first year of Showa.

The new emperor ascended the throne, paid tribute to heaven and earth, thanked God, and granted amnesty to the world.

At the table in the big three-yuan gambling house, I shook the dice in my hand and swept over the guests waiting for the start in front of me one by one, and the corners of my mouth hooked up an unnoticed smile.

With a "snap", it was buckled on the table, and it was slowly opened, only to see the sieves neatly stacked into a stack, and the top sieve was only a little, "A pillar of optimus, small!" ”

The winner was carried away by greed and continued to bet, and the loser did not even have a coffin, so he could only leave the table in disgrace.

In the early hours of the morning, when the children and uglies met, the courtyard gradually quieted down, and the closed guys went home one after another.

I settled today's remuneration from the boss, took the broken silver in my pocket, and stuffed it into my arms contentedly, so that I didn't have to drink the northwest wind for a short time.

Just a few steps out of the gambling house, he noticed that someone was following behind him, and stopped in surprise.

When the man saw me stop, he took a step forward and said, "When did you learn this?" If your father knew that you didn't learn and didn't know how to learn, he would have peeled your skin? ”

With this old-fashioned tone, magnetic voice, and this mocking tone, I turned around and looked at it uncertainly, and retorted very unhappily: "You want to care?" I didn't steal or rob, and I worked to earn money. Besides, my father died early, why do you care ......?"

The latter words were stuck in his throat when he met those cold black eyes.

This strange and familiar face in front of him, he is Chu Nian!

That face is absolutely, but that chilling look, the momentum of not entering the living, and the attitude of no one in his eyes, is he really the Chu Nian I know?

Chu Nian, the word Yunnuo, the only seedling of the Northern Marquis.

Someone once said that with his family appearance, his future prospects are absolutely limitless.

But now, Chu Nian seems to be a different person, except for his appearance, he has not changed, and the momentum around him is like that of a year ago.

"Are you, Chu Nian?" I'm not sure about asking.

Chu Nian walked over and said with a weird smile: "What are you doing to look at me with such hellish eyes?" Why, I don't recognize it after a year? ”

This kind of cold and joking tone made me very uncomfortable, staring at him strangely and honestly saying what was in his heart, "I really don't know each other." ”

There was a layer of chill on his body, as if a person who had returned from hell didn't know what he had experienced.

However, looking at his current dark official uniform, it is somewhat understandable why he has become like this, he has entered purgatory and has become a terrifying royal weapon.

Purgatory was established in the early years of Emperor Taizong of Qin, similar to the Jinyi guards of the Ming Dynasty, who were responsible for carrying out the tasks assigned above, sometimes secretly killing, sometimes investigating difficult cases, and sometimes protecting important people or objects.

The only difference is that this person has no rank, does not participate in court politics, and only obeys the emperor's orders.

There are four overseers in purgatory, namely the Green Dragon Superintendent, the White Tiger Superintendent, the Vermilion Bird Superintendent and the Xuanwu Superintendent, and the four overseers are in charge of the purgatory, but the Qinglong is the leader.

The official uniform on Chu Nian's body could faintly see the white tiger on his chest in the moonlight, he should be the white tiger supervisor of the Quartet.

Seeing that I was alienated and afraid, his attitude softened a lot, and his tone became less blunt, "When did you learn these unpopular things?" ”

"It would have been a long time ago, but at that time, I didn't have to worry about spending money and didn't need to show off in front of people." This is the truth, the set of the gambling table, my father used to have a subordinate who was an expert, I was not a girl when I was a child, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling in drinking and gambling I have obtained the essence, but I didn't expect that one day I would rely on gambling to solve the problem of eating.

But then again, what did he come to block me in the middle of the night?

"You, why are you here?"

"Looking for you."

I twitched the corners of my mouth and smiled a little incredulously, "You are really good at laughing, you are a busy person now, what are you looking for me to be a common man who has just been released from prison?" ”

The corners of Chu Nian's mouth twitched, as if he was angry with me, threw the package in his hand to me, turned around indifferently and said, "Change your clothes and follow me!" ”

I lowered my head and opened the package, curiously looked at the purgatory lieutenant's uniform that leaked out of the corner, my eyes almost fell out, and I directly held it and handed it back, "Your joke is a bit big, everyone knows that people in purgatory need strict selection before they can be hired, and the little talent is shallow and not determined enough, no, incompetent." ”

"Don't you want to find out the cause of your father's death?" This guy actually moved my dad out to contain me, shameless.

The burden I handed out was slowly taken back, and I told Chu Nian with practical actions that I wanted to check, but I hesitated and said: "But after I am a criminal minister, I can't enter the court as an official according to the rules." ”

"What's so difficult about this, from today onwards, you are no longer Qin Qiu's resignation."
