Chapter 23 Plot the situation and catch the turtle in the urn

Within a few days, the acting city lord Chang Yi used thunderous means to reorganize the affairs of the upper and lower levels of the mansion, and within a short time, he found the Gu pot that murdered the city lord and the Gu of the people who participated in the banquet at the Lake Tour from Li Yan's residence.

The crowd was indignant, chanting Chang Yi to be wise, denouncing Li Yan, and striving to severely punish him, driven by public opinion, Li Yan was sentenced to be beheaded on Luoxia Street three days later.

Three days later, the small restaurant on Luoxia Street near the prison was in the elegant room by the window.

"Are we really going to rob the execution ground?" Ever since Yu Zijin heard Lin Xiao seriously say that he was going to rob the Dharma Field in the morning, the shock in his heart has not subsided for a long time. Recently, he was "locked up" by Lin Xiao in the Lin Mansion and was not allowed to go out, and finally heard that Lin Xiao was going to take him out, and he was happy for a while, how could he have thought that he would do it......

"Hmm." Lin Xiao sniffed the tea lightly, then held the rim of the white jade cup with her thumb and index finger, supported the bottom of the cup with her middle finger, and sipped it carefully, ignoring it. Well, good tea.

Seeing this, Yu Zijin also reached out and picked up a white jade teacup, and said in his heart, is it really so delicious? So he took a sip, "Wow, it's so astringent!" ”

Lin Xiao couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, and sighed helplessly.

"By the way, Ah Shan, why didn't you see her coming?" Bai Lishan likes to be lively the most, and the scene of "robbery and execution" will definitely not be missed, but Yu Zijin did not see her at this time, so he put down the white jade teacup and said curiously.

"I don't know." The corners of Lin Xiao's mouth rose slightly, and her eyes smiled, avoiding Yu Zijin's question. The bureau of Yancheng is the time to close the net, and Bai Lishan will go to the city lord's mansion to assist Li Shen in the town, so naturally he will not appear here.

"Huh?"

Just as Yu Zijin was silently thinking about the ins and outs in his heart, the prisoner car carrying Li Yan slowly approached. The guards escorted the prisoner cart on both sides of the road, and the onlookers gathered in groups of three or five, pointing fingers at Li Yan.

"Come on, this is that Li Yan, who looks upright, I didn't expect my heart to be so black, even my own brother is harmed."

"What's more, there are so many people who participated in the lake tour, and he didn't say a word, so he did this."

"I heard that he is very bloodthirsty by nature, kills people, and drinks blood and eats meat."

"Kill, kill!"

Li Yan glanced around, and couldn't help sneering, under the current world, these small people have become superiors, playing with power and scheming between the hands of the people. Seeing the wind is the wind, only knowing right and wrong, even if you have never seen it, you can say it clearly, but you don't know that you are just a little horn singing with a black face on the stage of others, which is very funny.

It seems that he has never seen such a big scene as the fall of a high-ranking official, and the closer to the execution ground, the more people come to watch the play, and the road becomes congested for a while.

"Idlers avoid!" The guards who opened the way shouted loudly. Surrounded by the people, the shouting of the guards seemed very weak, and the group couldn't help but slow down.

Yu Zijin had been paying attention to the movements on the prisoner car, but he was suddenly attracted by the flashing figure by the window of the teahouse opposite, and a touch of light blue clothes swept by, and then the window was tightly closed, and he couldn't see any movement.

Lin Xiao seemed to feel a trace of abnormality on the other side, and released internal force around his body to investigate, frowning slightly, coming, martial arts are not weak, but his body has not fully recovered now, and it is not suitable for him to meet him head-on. However, the other party didn't seem to have malicious intent, and when he saw Lin Xiao's internal strength, he didn't deliberately restrain his breath.

"Nothing." Although Lin Xiao couldn't be sure who was coming, he saw that the other party was alone, but he was too late, so he shouldn't interfere in this matter, so he also spoke to appease Yu Zijin.

On the other hand, downstairs, no matter how slow the speed is, there will be a moment when it reaches the destination, and the prisoner car finally came to the execution table in a noisy noise.

On the prison seat sat Chang Yi, dressed in green clothes, and beside him stood Chen Ping, who had rarely been in front of everyone recently, as if he had resumed his position as deputy envoy, with a sense of absolute superiority on his face, and a look of slight contempt for the people under him.

"Bold Li Yan, murdering the former city lord and poisoning innocent people, are you guilty!"

Li Yan's expression was faint, and he smiled contemptuously, "I don't know." ”

Unlike Chen Ping, who was born in a civilian family, in order to make a living, he joined the special training organization when he was a child, practiced martial arts day and night, and when he was older, he was ordered to carry out various tasks issued above. Li Yan was born in the city lord's mansion since he was a child, with fine clothes and fine food, sitting in the city lord's mansion, even if he sat in the prisoner car in embarrassment, he still had a high and indifferent face.

It seems that because of the contrast, Chen Ping was deeply shocked, and the humiliation in his heart surged up, and he said hatefully: "Come on, press him up and execute him!" ”

After speaking, two guards stood out from the side of the prisoner car, pressed Li Yan onto the Xingtai, and pressed it to the round pile. A strong man holding a big knife in his hand, wearing a red scarf on his head, and holding a big knife in his hand, stood at his side, took a bowl of wine in his mouth, sprayed it at the big knife, and waved it.

"Wait!" A white figure floated down from the wing room of the restaurant on the side.

Chen Ping seemed to be a little surprised, but his heart turned displeased because he was suddenly interrupted, "What is Lin Ergongzi doing, don't you want to speak for this murderer?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the onlookers couldn't help but guess when they saw the situation.

"What's the matter, what is this Lin Gongzi going to do, it won't be to rob the execution ground."

"It doesn't look like it."

When the people saw Lin Xiao coming alone, well-dressed and in a long-sleeved robe, they were more like white scholars who had gone to the wrong place than the murderous comrades in Chen Ping's mouth.

Lin Xiao didn't care, and walked to the stage, "What you said is wrong, I don't want to speak for him." ”

Chen Ping seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, thinking of the previous incident of secretly hurting Yu Zijin, for some reason, he had always been faintly uneasy in his heart, and at this time, he was even more afraid that Lin Xiao would already know the truth, and he was about to ask himself for an explanation.

He knew Lin Xiao's martial arts, although there were many guards present, but he didn't know if there were also hidden piles lurking around, Chen Ping could not guarantee that he would be Lin Xiao's opponent. Immediately gave the guards on the side a look and went to check the surrounding situation.

"Can't you see, I'm here to save him." Seeing Chen Ping's expression change, Lin Xiao's heart was relieved, and a burst of coldness suddenly emanated from his eyes, and he added in a cold voice.

Not only Chen Ping, but even the surrounding people were speechless. The scene fell silent for a while, until the guards sent by Chen Ping returned.

"Bold, in broad daylight, you dare to defy the emperor's authority and speak disrespectfully, even if you are the cousin of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you can't be allowed to be so ostentatious. Today, I, Chen Ping, am here to eliminate harm for the people, come here! ”

Chen Ping mocked in his heart, according to the report of the guards who came back, at this time, all his own people were on the court. Lin Xiao didn't bring anyone with him, so he didn't boast of his strong martial arts, and tried in vain to save Li Yan from among the many guards.

"Yes." The eight guards replied loudly and drew their swords to attack Lin Xiao.

"If you have something to say, why bother to move your hands and feet, it is not elegant. Oh yes, I forgot, Vice Envoy Chen shouldn't be able to understand Fengya. Lin Xiao smiled, he didn't hold a sword in his hand, but he still moved freely under the siege of eight people, floating between several people, and with a wave of his hand, the black shadows in front of him fell one after another.

Seeing this situation, Chen Ping couldn't help but be a little flustered, pointed to the ten guards standing beside him, and said sternly: "What are you looking at, give it to me!" ”

A group of guards glanced at each other, drew their swords and bullied them, but they all stopped five steps away from Lin Xiao, as if they were afraid of Lin Xiao's martial arts, and they didn't dare to step forward.

"Deputy Envoy Chen has a remark that I don't agree with very much. Lin Xiao's heart for the court is sincere, and the emperor and queen are all in the world. It's Vice Chan who makes you, so you have to think about it carefully. Lin Xiao lowered his eyes and smiled slightly, slowly walked to Li Yan's side, loosened the shackles on his body, and glanced at the big man who held the big knife in his hand, but hesitated to move, and smiled even more.

"What do you mean?" Chen Ping frowned slightly, his heart was involuntarily a little uneasy, and his right eyelid jumped suddenly.

Lin Xiao didn't say a word, but a voice full of coldness came from behind Chen Ping, "Don't you understand it so clearly?" Come! ”

After that, the ten guards who should have been ordered to besiege Lin Xiao turned around and attacked Chen Ping, and a company shrank Chen Ping and the guards who had just gone to find out the news in the encirclement.

"What's the matter, Chang Yi, why are you arresting me!" Chen Ping looked flustered, but he said the word "Chang Yi" very seriously, as if he was hinting at something.

On the other hand, Chang Yi seemed to have heard some big joke, laughed loudly, and then his expression gradually became cold, until he was full of hatred, "Why? Hehe, just because the people you serve kill my whole clan, and cause me and my sister to be displaced since childhood, just because you plot to kill the city lord, with bad intentions, but you are framing the blame, just because you collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, and your heart can be punished! ”

Chen Ping was shocked, he had never seen Chang Yi like this, and he was suddenly empty, but he didn't want to believe the scene in front of him, "Impossible!" You've been ......."

"Yes, I was indeed born in Nanyue, and if it wasn't for the city lord who saved me from danger when I was ten years old, there would be no one like me in this world. has been incognito for many years, endured humiliation, otherwise how could he dispel the doubts of the person above. Chang Yi said coldly, and then lowered his eyes slightly, hiding a trace of sadness.

Not like Fang Cai's fear, Chen Ping suddenly hooked his lips and smiled evilly, "Do you really think that the Lord trusts you wholeheartedly?" It's a bit naΓ―ve. ”

After speaking, Chen Ping raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and more than twenty dark guards dressed in black and covered their faces with ink towels flashed in, and surrounded the ten guards on the stage.

"How can this be, how can you mobilize Deadpool in the cabinet!" Chang's face changed slightly, and he stood up in an instant, as if he was worried about the current situation, and his brows were furrowed.

"The moment you enter the cabinet, you should understand that trust does not exist for us who lick life on the knife edge." Chen Pinglang said that with the addition of Deadpool, he believed that even if he couldn't defeat Chang Yi and the others, a smooth evacuation would be more than enough.

"Are you so sure you can get out, Deputy Envoy Chen, if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself." As if he had guessed what Chen Ping was thinking, Lin Xiao interrupted.
