002 Wind and rain in the city

At midnight the next day, the morning light was faint, and the Jiuhan army left the customs early.

Song Xingyue changed into a heavy military uniform and carried several large bags of baggage, and Li Yu specially approved her to walk next to him. The package was full of Li Yuan's clothes, and he dared to love that the important objects in his mouth were actually these things. But now she can at least be protected by Li Yuan, and she is not afraid that there will be no bones left in this place where tigers, leopards and jackals gather in the Central Plains.

Li Yi squinted, and saw Song Xingyue sticking out her tongue with the package on her back, and the corners of her mouth slightly hooked a little arc.

It is now almost noon, the sun is splashing, the flood is desolate, and it is majestic and majestic. The Jiuhan army walked to a dangerous place, with a loess platform on the left, a slope below, and a high rock wall on the right, on which bamboo forests were grown, and there was a sound from time to time. Li Yi and Chen Fei glanced at each other, and several black-clothed masked people suddenly appeared on them, and they used trebuchets to throw huge rocks one after another, and when they touched the ground, they exploded instantly, and the soles of their feet rumbled.

Chen Fei sent someone to the back of the army to inform him, Li Yi jumped into the bamboo forest, and the man in black was caught off guard, both took out bows and arrows, aimed at Li Yuan, and missed a few shots. He sneered to himself, and fought the enemy alone.

Song Xingyue was hiding behind a stone, but she didn't expect her waist to tighten and she was taken away by a man in black. Xingyue glanced sideways, and the man only showed a pair of eyes, which she felt familiar, but she didn't know where she had seen them, so she had to shout: "You, you, what kind of person are you, where are you going to take me, let me go-" The man in black ignored her, and only led her to a quieter place, leaving the horse aside. Xingyue sat on the ground, and he sat aside and slowly wiped the knife face.

"Who the hell are you, and why did you bring me here?" Seeing that he didn't respond, Xingyue calculated to sneak away, and the man in black threw the knife in front of her, cutting off the way. Seeing this, Xingyue emboldened herself and said, "Do you know who my eldest brother is!" If you dare to hurt me a single hair, my eldest brother will come with thousands of horses, pick your skin, pull your tendons, and throw you into the wolf forest to feed the wolves! The man was indifferent, and she continued: "You abominable scoundrel! My second brother is a bronze hammer martial god! As far as your three-legged cat kung fu, if you were caught by my second brother, you would have been hanged alive with a copper hammer and iron chain! He remained motionless, and she continued: "I also have a good friend named Abubaijan, and his ability to ride horses and shoot arrows is the second in the world, and no one dares to say the first!" If you let me go, you won't be -"

"Trampled to death by horses' hooves, killed by arrows, huh?" After wiping the blade, he looked up at Xingyue, and then took out a pack of shaved sheep bones out of nowhere and threw it to her. Xingyue was stunned, but as soon as she smelled the familiar fragrance, she immediately devoured it. When the man in black saw her like this, his eyebrows and eyes suddenly stretched.

After a full meal, Song Xingyue wanted to thank her, not caring about being taken away, but the man in black picked her up and put her on the horse's back, patted the horse's buttocks, and the horse neighed and ran towards the team of the Jiuhan Army.

"Hey—what the hell are you going to do—"

Song Xingyue stabilized her body, she was a child of the grassland, and it was not a problem to control a horse. Finally saw the Jiuhan flag fluttering in front of her, and she clamped the horse's belly.

Li held a bronze medal with a gluttony carved on it. Jun frowned and muttered to himself. Xingyue rode his horse and smiled at Li Yi and Chen Fei. Li Mo stared at her, looked her up and down, suddenly fixed his eyes on the placket of her chest, and reached out to explore. Xingyue's eyes widened and she said in horror: "You, what do you want to do." Li Di ignored it, and as soon as he made a move, he took off the creed that was tucked into the placket of her clothes. Xingyue breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly wondered: "Just now, a man in black kidnapped me, and I don't know when there was an extra piece of paper...... Li Yu said rightly: "It's the Senluo faction." Chen Yan was puzzled when he heard this: "What kind of faction is this?" Li Yi shook his head, turned to a cavalry and said: "Pass down the general's order: the rear army is the front army, the front army is the rear army, the grain and grass go first, and the soldiers are behind." The cavalry groaned and ran towards the ranks behind.

Along the way, Li Mo was very thoughtful, and he couldn't understand why a faction that he had never heard of in the rivers and lakes popped up for no reason. Moreover, when he fought with those men in black, he found that their martial arts were very strong, and they came and went without a trace, but there was no motive to kill him. It's purely the mastermind behind him who is funny, maybe he wants to give him a ride. So who is behind this? Li Mo vetoed the possibility of the emperor and his eldest brother. He said to Chen Yan: "After entering Lanzhou City, you will go to hand over to Tang Yu on my behalf." Chen replied, "Yes." He said to Song Xingyue on the side, "And you," Xingyue pointed to himself suspiciously, "Take care of the general's things." ”

The Jiuhan army walked day and night for two days and two nights, Li Yi did not give the soldiers any time to undress and unload their armor and let go of their horses, and no one in the army complained, during which only Song Xingyue was so tired that sometimes she was on the side of the road, sometimes lying on the back of a bumpy horse, adding some jokes, Li Mo viciously said that she was "detrimental to the appearance of the army".

Finally arriving at the city, the infantry and cavalry were arranged in their respective barracks, leaving only a group of troops to enter the residence of the doctor Zuo. Song Xingyue was ordered by Li Fei to clean his bedroom first, and then Li Li made all kinds of bitter and mean requests, originally these things could be handled by the maids in the house, but Li Xingyue deliberately tricked her.

In the afternoon of this day, Xingyue was preparing to climb over the wall and go to the street. Her body fell as if she was on something, and she touched it down. Li Mo slapped her hand away and cried out in pain, "Hey! You rascal, you! Get up, it's killing me! Xingyue hurriedly got up, and saw Li Mo's face was fair, his face was clear, and the golden glow sprinkled on his body through the branches, outlining his long body. Both asked, "Who are you?" After a while, Li Mo glanced at Xingyue, who was dressed in red, and muttered: "I always feel as if I have seen you somewhere......." Xingyue was helpless, and said: "What if you have seen it?" What if you haven't seen it? Li Mo grabbed her and said, "Wait a minute, my name is Li Mo, you woman is really interesting, I haven't told me your name yet." "It turns out that you are Li Di's younger brother, my name is Song Xingyue." He said to himself: "The stars hang down and the plains are wide, and the moon swells in the great river." Well, that's a good name! "So, General Lee, can I go?" "With such a big mansion, how can you get out alone? Let's go, I'll take you! ”

The pedestrians on the street are weaving, the voices are like boiling, the shops are lined up, the red bricks and green tiles, there are plump singers leaning on their cheeks, and they can't bear to pinch their throats and sing a song. Li Mo said: "There is a store in the east of the city that specializes in ice food, and I will take you to eat kumquat snow bubbles!" "Xingyue only cares about watching those novel and interesting things all the way, what Zang Hu has never had, there are all in the Central Plains. Unconsciously arrived at the store, Li Mo took a shot: "Little Er, come to two bowls of kumquat snow bubbles!" "Okay!" The shopkeeper threw the towel over his shoulder, and after a while, he brought two bowls. The juicy flesh of the orange has been shaved off, and the thin snow is shiny and topped with honey. Xingyue scooped a spoonful and said, "It's so delicious!" It's better than milk lumps! "That's not it, this shop is the most famous ice food restaurant in Lanzhou City, and its reputation has overshadowed that of Shangdu!" After that, Li Mo said again: "Little Er! Two more bowls of chamomile cold pottery and sugar ice and snow cold yuanzi! "You're going to hurt your stomach and spleen if you eat like this!" "General Ben finally waited for Huaixia, this time I must eat enough!" Xingyue can't resist Li Mo's temperament. The two hit it off at first sight, talked freely, and left the store after having their stomachs full.

Suddenly, there was a beggar and a girl in ragged clothes with white ribbons in the crowd. The beggar dragged the girl to beg for begging from passers-by, and when the girl was accidentally hit, the beggar whimpered and cried, insisting that the man had deliberately hit her grandson. The girl's eyes were closed, the white ribbon fell to the ground, and there were blood stains around her eyes, but the eyelids vibrated a few times. Xingyue suddenly stepped forward and squatted in front of the girl and said, "Little friend, sister, I have a rock sugar gourd here, look!" She immediately opened her eyes. Everyone sighed, the beggar grabbed the girl and was about to leave, Xingyue stopped them, gave them a small amount of broken silver on their bodies, and said: "Old woman, it is not right to cheat people to get money, not to mention that you are still pulling a little doll who does not understand the world, which is even more wrong." Good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil, God has eyes, so take this money and buy some clothes and food for your children. The crowd applauded, and she nodded her head.

Song Xingyue remembered Li Mo at this time, but saw him holding his stomach, twisting his eyebrows and showing difficulty, he was afraid that he would hurt his spleen and stomach, so he came to support him. The two stumbled back to the mansion and were caught by Li Yuan, he looked at the two suspiciously, Xingyue hurriedly explained, Li Yuan frowned, and let Xingyue go down. Li Mo didn't dare to raise his head, so he had to laugh and say, "Second brother, I-" As soon as Li Mo raised his hand, Li Mo lowered his head more and more in fright, but the hand was gently placed on his head, and Li Mo said softly: "The wound on your body has not healed yet, so you are so anxious to go out to eat ice?" Li Mo hummed in shame.

Night has come, and it is almost dawn. Lingniang went to his room to discuss important matters according to Li Yuan's instructions. Ling Niang bowed down and said: "My lord, Ling Niang heard that there is a lot of turmoil in this city, and today I accidentally got a bronze medal from a begging yellow-headed child, which belongs to the Senluo faction under the words of the adult." Li Yi took it, carefully rubbed the carved lines on it, thoughtfully, and said for a long time: "Beggar? Today, the third brother also bumped into him. I learned from Tang Yu that the Senluo faction did all kinds of evil under the protection of a certain important minister of the court, and its deeds spread all over the county level except Shangdu...... By the way, this time you go back to Shangdu and help me keep an eye on Liang Shenggongzi in Happy Building. "This person is-" "The most favored prostitute around Han Bingquan, he has done these unsightly things, so he naturally does not dare to welcome the male pet into the palace openly, lest he lose the laughing name of the emperor with broken sleeves." Suddenly, there was a black shadow on the door and window, and Li Yi saw that the shadow should be a soldier, and the red tassel on the helmet was very easy to identify. He sneered to himself and said to Lingniang: "Ling'er, I'm going to be tired today, I'll accompany you another day, and go down." Lingniang understood, and bowed her head.

When she went out, she glanced around, but she didn't see the fine work, but there was an extra pair of footprints at the door.

In the early morning of the next day, Song Xingyue was pulled up by Li Mo early in the morning to wash a large basin of clothes, saying that this was her punishment for running away with Li Mo. Xingyue was embarrassed, endured the anger in her stomach and brushed her clothes, and while washing, she suddenly took out a jade-white hairpin from the sleeve of a dress, she wiped it and looked at it in the sun, and she couldn't see what was famous, so she put it in the placket and prepared to return it to him next time.

At this time, Li Mo was in the public court of the county government. The atmosphere was solemn, his eyes were calm, and he slowly opened his lips: "Lord Ming, let me ask you, the fourteen gambling houses in the west and east of the city traded with gambling prostitutes for huge profits, and even intercepted and killed innocent people, do you know this?" Master Ming sat in the court and wiped his sweat, the fat on his body trembled three times, and said tremblingly: "Villain...... The villain doesn't know ......" "Well, thirty-seven dens of the beggars, the wind gate, and the fire gate are scattered throughout the city, do you know? Master Ming looked frightened, staggered down from the hall, knelt at Li Di's feet, hugged his legs and shouted for mercy. Li Yi looked at him condescendingly: "Then do you know that there are thousands of children up and down the city, whose tongues have been cut off, their eyes have been burned by fire tongs, their hands and tendons have been cut off, and they are begging on the street, and they are still looking forward to you coming to call the shots for the justice of the world." Master Ming's face was red and hot, and he cried with tears in his eyes: "Villain...... The villain is guilty...... But the villain is really hard to speak—"

Li Yu kicked away his greasy body and said sternly: "Bring people up!" So a woman with one ear cut off and a bandage came in behind, she knelt down and said: "Please make the decision, the folk girl was originally the daughter of a fisherman in Yanhua Village, and I never thought that one day the family would encounter several black-clothed and masked people, and the little girl did not recognize it...... It's just that they not only robbed the family of all their belongings, but also raped the people's daughters, sent them to a place full of people, made us go to the streets every day to beg for money, and sent people to watch us in the corners and alleys. If the money we ask for is not enough, they will whip us and give us no water or food...... My father has come here many times to ask the adults to avenge the people's daughter, but in the end he was either told that the adults were not there or were driven away by the officials......"

Li Mo stared at Master Ming, gritted his teeth and said, "Are you guilty?" Master Ming said with teary eyes: "My lord...... Don't you know, adult, all of this is planned by someone behind it, and those genres are all a gang! They have ...... They have a powerful messenger at work, my lord! There are also gambling houses, gambling houses are different, but gambling and gambling, there are also people behind the gambling houses, according to the villain's understanding, the owners of these fourteen gambling houses like to drink a cup of tea every time they come to Lanzhou City. That's all the villain knows, you can spare the villain—"

"Camellia?" Li Yi repeated, suddenly evoked a meaningful smile, and turned to Lord Ming with a cold color and said: "As a city and county commander, you should have supported the right path, eliminated evil and promoted good, but you did such a thing beyond the basics, which is simply hurtful. Although this general is not Dali Temple, he has the right to go to the imperial history platform, and you can watch it. Li Mo left this pickled place with a group of soldiers, and only Lord Yu Ming and a few people who were caught cheating in the court wept bitterly.

Chen Feng said: "My lord, I'm afraid that this will bring trouble to myself. Li Yi said: "That's just my trouble, not the trouble of the people in the city." The two took the soldiers back, passing by a bazaar, there was a bean paste pot cake, Li Mo bought one, Li Mo likes to eat this, now his third brother is locked in the room by himself, it is inevitable to feel sullen, buy his favorite snacks back, in order to relieve his sorrow in the past few days. Thinking of this, Li Mo smiled. Chen Feng said suddenly: "By the way, my lord, the last general has traced the footprints of the fine work according to your instructions, this person's feet are wide, about five pounds in weight, about six feet long, and the shape is short and fat. Li Yu nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, but you still need to observe for one night, don't be alarmed." "Whew."

Li asked a soldier to bring the bean paste pot cake to the mansion, and he and Chen Feng led the rest of the soldiers to the barracks for practice.
