Chapter 132: The Gentleman on the Beam
If there were Assassins in the house, it was a very common thing.
For Wei Shaoguang, it is normal for the third watch to walk on the roof of someone else's house in the middle of the night, after all, she used to do it and does it now.
Xiahou Ming was waiting for him, but he didn't plan to wake up Shaoguang, who was finally asleep.
However, when Xia Houming tensed the muscles of his whole body, out of sensitivity to danger, Wei Shaoguang had already woken up from his sleep.
She lay flat on the bed, listening intently to the sound on her roof, and when the man slid down the beam, Shaoguang even sneered in his heart, probably thinking that all assassins in the world were the same, and liked to be a gentleman on the beam.
Shaking the light and lying down, with Xia Houming guarding her, she luckily thought about where this bold assassin who dared to come to the door on the first day of her return would come from.
After a circle of characters in the capital, Wei Shaoguang finally determined 90% of the time on a strange character.
She used Xiahou Ming's meal tomorrow morning as a guarantee, it was definitely not that she was prejudiced against Fu Weiren, but that this person was so obvious that she didn't even want to hide it.
You say, what fool would send a gentleman from Liang Shang to greet a popular champion on the first night of his return to Beijing? And this assassin is so weak that even Xiahou Ming can find it very early in advance, uh, it's not that Xiahou Ming is too vegetable, but Fu Weiren is really weird, he doesn't play cards according to common sense, and the cards he gives now are too obvious, which makes it too terrifying.
Shaoguang's vigilance against him has always been high, and he originally thought that the road from her return to Huairou to her return would be a little smooth, but Fu Weiren did not make a move, which is not logical.
Obviously, when he left Huairou two years ago, he wrote in his eyes that he would wait for her to collect interest in the capital.
Sure enough, when the shaking light relaxed slightly, the man released a bait to test her as if he was teasing a pet.
The assassin had already hooked the beam of the room and pierced the window paper on it, Xiahou Ming clenched the hilt of the sword in his hand, held his breath, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the assassin's location, ready to strike at any time.
A little smoke was slowly released, this kind of indiscriminate means, it was really unbearable, shaking the light and pretending to be asleep turned over, Xiahou Ming also made up his mind and drew his sword to attack.
Very happily caught the assassin who was obviously not at home, and pressed him to the ground when he caught it, still thinking about struggling at the moment, and talking unrelentingly.
"Let go of me! You let go of me! ”
Xiahou Ming was afraid that he would wake up his master, and while wondering that this assassin seemed to be a little unreasonable, he was angry and ready to beat him up to shut up this person, so that Shaoguang could sleep peacefully.
"Tsk!"
An unpleasant taunt came into Xia Houming's ears, and he looked up under the corridor to see Wei Shaoguang rising in his clothes.
"Tie them up and bring them in."
Shaking the light and pulling on his shoes, he put on a dark coat on his body, leaned against the screen, yawned lazily, and some physiological tears appeared in his eyes, looking very sleepy.
Xiahou Ming listened to Shaoguang's words very much, felt out a piece of rope and tied the assassin's hand neatly, carried it into the room with the back of his neck, and shook the door shut.
She moved to the round table in the room with drunken steps, lifted the porcelain teapot and shook it, then opened the lid and sniffed it gently, with an expression of "okay", she poured herself a cup of cold tea and poured herself tons.
I'm dying of thirst!
After a cup of cold tea, the whole person was a lot more sober, his elbows habitually rested on the table, and he held his cheeks with one hand, looking at the assassin kneeling on the ground.
"Xiahou Ming, what do you think is the matter with this person?"
"Me! …… Woooooo (Let go of me!) )
The assassin on the ground was really annoyed, and he really talked a lot, so he took out a silver needle and threw it out casually, and the man shut up and was sealed dumb.
Oh, the accuracy is good, it hasn't dropped yet.
Shake Guang felt relieved in his heart.
Xiahou Ming stood on the side of the assassin, looked at Shaoguang, lowered his head and thought for a moment, and cautiously said his thoughts.
"Childe, my subordinates don't think this person is an assassin."
"Oh? How so? ”
Shake Light asked with interest.
"My subordinates just made a few moves with this person, and found that he had no martial arts at all, and even no internal strength at all, and he had some skills, but he felt like a gangster to his subordinates."
After Xia Houming finished talking about his guess, he lowered his eyes a little unconfidently, looking at the carpet under his feet, but Shaoguang, who listened to his words, smiled, looking very satisfied.
"What you said is correct, this person is indeed not an assassin, he is a very common ruffian hooligan in the capital, or the unclean kind, I may have come to my house to see something valuable."
Sha Guang's eyes flickered in the dark night, in the candlelight that was not too bright, like a tiger, the gentleman on the beam who knelt on the ground and was sealed dumb looked at Sha Guang, he felt that his neck was like a sharp and cold blade, as if the head and body would be separated in the next second, and the residual blood stained the red carpet, as if he had passed away.
He was very frightened, and in a trance he felt that this champion was really too different, not as weak as a scholar, but very terrifying.
His body trembled uncontrollably, his eyes flickering, and he didn't want to look at Wei Shaoguang, who was a writer who didn't want to mess with demons.
Wei Shaoguang sneered and sat on the stool, looking gentle and harmless, but his eyes were bloodthirsty and cold.
"So, you have to tell me which treasure you have taken a fancy to in my mansion, and I can protect it, after all, except for the treasures given by His Majesty the Emperor, everything else in my mansion is commonplace, could it be that you are here to steal the treasures given by the emperor?"
Shaoguang immediately looked up at Xiahou Ming in surprise, "Xiahou Ming, it seems that this person is no longer something we can do privately, let's escort him to the official mansion tomorrow morning, just say that this person entered the Zhuangyuan Mansion at night and was ready to steal the things given by the emperor, which is a great crime!" And I also have to write an excerpt overnight to state my guilt, and I am really guilty of not even protecting His Majesty's royal gifts. ”
The gentleman on the beam who was kneeling on the ground was about to break his guts, and he was about to lose his incontinence, and he struggled desperately when he couldn't speak, and his mouth was whining, so he didn't look in a hurry.
Wei Shaoguang was attracted by him, looked over and asked, "Do you have something to say?" ”
The man didn't even care about being afraid and shaking the light, and nodded his head.
Shaking Light looked at him with a gentle smile, and his attitude changed dramatically, and the person who looked at it was creepy.
"Xiahou Ming will unlock the acupoint for him."
"Yes."
Xiahou Ming leaned over to untie the acupoint and withdrew the silver needle.
The man immediately felt the flow of air in his throat, and he breathed heavily, and poured out all that he knew with trembling in his shaking gaze.
"Please spare your life! The small ones didn't come to steal the gifts, the little ones sneaked in and stole while they were taking advantage of others, but absolutely! I definitely didn't come to steal the treasures from His Majesty! It's just that I heard someone say by chance recently that this annex was renovated into the Zhuangyuan Mansion, and I heard that there were a lot of treasures in it, so I couldn't resist the temptation for a while, and slipped in desperately. ”
"My lord! You didn't hurt you either, and you didn't steal any treasures, so you see if you can be private? Don't send it to the government......"
This gentleman on the beam looked at Wei Shaoguang flatteringly, his hands were tied, and he kowtowed to Wei Shaoguang "buckled", looking very desperate.
Wei Shaoguang glanced at Xiahou Ming, and Xiahou clearly reached out and grabbed the back collar of the sand sculpture thief, and forcefully stopped the immoral behavior that made Shaoguang lose his life.
"Your Excellency!?"
"You have a point." Wei Shaoguang rubbed his eyebrows and looked very tired, "But, I'm very curious about where you heard that there is a treasure in my mansion?" Oh, and tell me the time by the way. ”
"This?" Liang Shangjun thought for a while and said, "Probably ten days ago, the little one was eating wine in a tavern, and when he heard the people in the tavern talking about it, he couldn't help but support his ears and listen to a few words, plus his money was really tight recently, so he went to the tavern to eat and drink in the tavern for several days to listen to them talk and inquire about the news, and even made sure that the things that slipped into the mansion tonight were all from them, and tonight, you have just arrived in the capital, you will be very tired and weak, and many treasures will be too late to enter the warehouse, and it will be easy to go away, so I came." ”
"Oh? Not bad! But where is the location of this tavern? ”
"In the Ma Ji Wine Shop on the three days away from here, their edamame is very delicious, although the wine is mixed with water, it is cheap, and people like Xiao will still choose to eat there to drink."
After listening to the words and the news was also investigated, Shake Guang smiled and said, "Thank you." ”
Xiahou Ming slammed the knife down, and this somewhat honest gentleman fell softly.
Shaoguang yawned, rubbed his eyes and said, "Pull it down and tie it up, Ming'er will throw it at the official mansion for me, and say that a thief has come in and wants to steal the royal gift, and the security in the capital is really a little terrible, let them watch it." ”
Yawned again, looking sleepy, "I'm going to write an excerpt, you can go outside to rest after you deal with it, and when I find a suitable girl in my leisure, you will be able to relax." ”
"Yes, Childe, you should rest early, too."
"Well, let's go rest."
Wei Shaoguang stood up, yawned and rubbed his eyes, and walked to the inside covered by the screen, ready to write a fold on a low horizontal table in the inner room.
Xiahou Ming extinguished the candle on the round table, kept the gentleman on the beam, tied him up firmly, fed him a drug, threw it into the side hall and left it alone, and went back to the outer room of the main hall and slept with his clothes.
There was no word all night, and it was about to dawn in the blink of an eye.
