"It's actually Childe? But why are you dressed like this? ”

Ah Leng was startled, and he couldn't help but feel strange when he looked at Liu Ji, who was dressed in black.

"Didn't you say you wanted to go to the Shen Mansion with me just now?"

"It's dark and windy this month, and it's not easy to be spotted in such a dress."

Ah Leng was amused by Liu Ji's words, and then said: "Okay, since you have said so, then it is up to you, but there is one thing, Liu Gongzi must listen to me!" ”

"Huh? What matters? Young man, please speak! ”

Liu Ji asked with his fists clenched.

"Young Master Liu, please look here!"

Ah Leng suddenly took out a map from his waist, and suddenly stretched out his finger in the light of the candlelight, pointing to a place on it.

"This is the map of the Shen Mansion that I got from my trustee not long ago. We'll follow the places shown on this map in a moment, and don't let them be discovered. ”

"Liu Gongzi must not be rash, everything is under my command, Gongzi knows?"

As soon as Liu Ji looked up, he saw Ah Leng's firm gaze.

"Young man, please rest assured, this son will never be rash when he listens to the young man's arrangement, this son can rest assured!"

For some reason, although Ah Leng has confirmed it many times, he still can't rest assured in his heart.

Outside the door, the watchman had already turned around again.

As soon as the gong sounded, Ah Leng realized that he had to hurry up, otherwise it wouldn't be long before the day would be bright.

He suddenly patted Liu Ji on the shoulder.

"It's time to go!"

The two of them, dressed in black, rolled over and went to the roof.

In a few moments, under the clear moonlight, two figures jumped on various rooftops.

With a swish, the two of them jumped into the Shen Mansion in one leap for life.

The quiet Shen Mansion could no longer see anyone except for a few people who were keeping vigil.

With the faint moonlight, Ah Leng pointed to a certain place above and ordered: "Liu Gongzi and I are acting separately, and the two of us will go to this place separately to find out how the situation is?" ”

Liu Ji looked at the place that Ah Leng pointed to on the map and nodded.

In the end, the two agreed to meet here in an hour.

The room that Ah Leng came to was Shen Sizhuo's study, and he didn't believe that this kind of place would not be able to find any important information.

He crept around to the door, only to find that it was locked.

But that didn't stop him, and he saw Ah Leng jump on the roof with a tap of his toes.

As soon as he reached the roof, he tiptoed open a black tile in it.

Leng leaned down to see that the table in the room was full of letters.

"I'd like to see if there's something unsightly in this letter, and it's still locked."

I saw Ah Leng use a thin wire to pry open the lock as he spoke.

As soon as he entered the room, Ah Leng immediately walked to the desk, picked up a letter and opened it to find out what was going on with the tribute wine.

To put it simply, it's just that because the business of the restaurant is too prosperous, some people look at it.

"I'll take this letter to the official now, and see if you have anything else to say!"

"Meow!"

Suddenly there was a cat meowing outside the door.

This is the code agreed upon by Ah Leng and Liu Ji, and it seems that Liu Ji has already finished it.

When he opened the door, Liu Ji was already waiting for him in the grass.

The two didn't say a word, but jumped on the horse with full tacit understanding, and left on the fast horse.

As soon as it was dawn that day, the big drum next to the gate of the county government had already been beaten.

Within half a pillar of incense, the county magistrate was already on his seat, and everything was ready.

A startled sound suddenly sounded, and the county official touched his mustache and looked at Ah Leng with a thoughtful expression: "I'm afraid this son has been a little diligent recently!" ”

"Say! What's the reason for this time? ”

As soon as the county official's voice fell, Ah Leng hurriedly added: "The grass people sue Shen Sizhuo Shen Gongzi of Shen Mansion in the west of the city!" ”

As soon as the name came out, the county magistrate, who was supposed to take a slow time and not take Ah Leng in his eyes, suddenly became serious.

"Bang!"

The startled wood slammed into the wooden table again.

"Bold! Do you know who you're accusing, believe it or not, I can take your head off right now! ”

"Oh? Then adults will pick it once and try it? Let's see how the people in the palace will react when the boss of this tribute wine suddenly dies. ”

As soon as these words came out, the county official's face suddenly became ugly, and all the words were swallowed back alive.

"Someone! Hurry up and invite Shen Gongzi over. ”

"No need, don't bother the county officials, and I want to see what this young man has to say."

Ah Leng smiled indifferently, and suddenly took out the letters from his waist.

"Your Excellency, please look!"

The letters were all spread out in front of the county magistrate.

The county magistrate only glanced at it, suddenly covered his head, and without looking at Shen Sizhuo, he pointed at him and ordered: "Someone!" Hurry up and arrest him, and behead him tomorrow at noon! ”

"What?"

Shen Sizhuo was startled, his knees weakened, and the whole person collapsed to the ground in one fell swoop.

"How is this possible, this son is the righteous son of Lord Cao, how can you lowly people be sanctioned, this is impossible!"

"You must be mistaken!"

"Let go of me, don't touch Ben Gongzi!"

But no matter how much he howled, he was still taken down by a few officials.

"Grass people, thank you, for making a clear judgment between right and wrong!"

Feeling satisfied, Aleng brushed his sleeves and left.

As soon as he went out, he bumped into Liu Ji who had just rushed over, he looked at Shen Sizhuo, who was being escorted to the cell by the officials, and suddenly patted Ah Leng on the shoulder.

"It seems that I'm still a step late, otherwise I can see the scene of you and the county official fighting wits and courage."

"Poor mouth!"

Ah Leng smiled helplessly.

"Let's go! Let's have two drinks! ”

"Let's go!"

The two returned to the Xiaoyao Wine House together.

"Brother, brother! You're back! ”

Xiao Meng saw that Ah Leng had finally returned, and rushed towards him excitedly.

The whole body hung on Ah Leng's body like a monkey.

Ah Leng gently touched Xiaomeng's head and said, "Okay, okay, let's not make trouble, okay?" ”

"I've talked to your brother Liu about going and talking to your sister if you don't get drunk or go home!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Lu Xiyi walking out of the backyard with a pot of wine.

"I guessed that you two would definitely have a drink when you were done, this is my new wine, so let's try it."

Lu Xiyi said that, and personally poured them full of wine.

Liu Ji was a little flattered, but Ah Leng on the side looked a little serious.

"Have you forgotten what I said the other day? Your body hasn't fully recovered yet, so I'll put aside the winemaking for a few days, why don't you ...... you just left for a few days?"

Lu Xiyi saw that the atmosphere seemed to be a little awkward, and immediately smiled.

"Okay, okay, look at the scare of you, it's okay!"

"I've made so much wine in total, you can rest assured, nothing will happen!"

Although Ah Leng was very worried, seeing that Lu Xiyi had already said this, he couldn't say anything in front of Liu Ji.

So, Ah Leng and Liu Ji drank a cup of you and a cup of me.

After three rounds of drinking, the two of them were not drunk at all.

"Xiaoxi, why aren't you drunk!"

Lu Xiyi suddenly covered his mouth and laughed when he heard Ah Leng's words.

"You've just found out, will it be a little late!"

"It's good, but I can't drink too much, so all I just got was a jug of fruit wine and some water."

Hearing Lu Xiyi's words, the two of them also laughed in unison.

"Shall I say? Why is this wine so light, it turns out to be fruit wine mixed with water. Okay, okay, it's not too early, and you two should rest early, so I won't bother. ”

After Liu Ji finished speaking, before Ah Leng and Lu Xiyi could react, he went out of the door and left on a fast horse.

"This kid is really fast, forget about him, then I'll go back to the room first."

"The ......"

Seeing that Ah Leng was about to leave, Lu Xiyi suddenly mustered up the courage and said intermittently.

Ah Leng said "um", but Lu Xiyi refused to say anything more.

But after all, they have lived together for so many years, even if Lu Xiyi refuses to say anything, Ah Leng can guess seventy-seven-eighty-eight.

"Are you worried about the antidote to the tribute wine?"

Ah Leng stood in front of Lu Xiyi and asked gently.

Lu Xiyi lowered his head and nodded weakly.

Seeing such a cute Lu Xiyi, Ah Leng couldn't help but tease.

"Okay, don't worry about it, things are almost done, I'll go and get it back tomorrow, there will be no accidents."

"It's you, who have been working so hard for the sake of tribute."

"Rest well!"

Ah Leng said that he sent Lu Xiyi's back to the room.

But I don't know why, since Lu Xiyi mentioned the antidote to him just now, he couldn't calm down in his heart for a long time, and he always felt that something would happen.

If he hadn't figured this out tonight, he wouldn't have been able to sleep all night.

After thinking about it repeatedly, Ah Leng still decided to take advantage of the night to see Shen Sizhuo in the cell.

Hurried all the way to the cell, because he mingled with these officials on weekdays, and everyone knew that Ah Leng and Liu Ji were brothers, so no one dared to stop him.

So, Ah Leng effortlessly went to the cell where Shen Sizhuo was held.

"Can I go in and have a look?"

The official hesitated for a moment.

"Okay, but don't stay for a long time, or it won't be good for people to find out."

In the end, the official opened the door for him.

Ah Leng entered the cell and looked at the decadent and vicissitudes of life in front of him.

Apparently less than a night later, he suddenly aged a lot.

Seeing Ah Leng come in, he didn't react at all, just sat quietly all the time.

Aleng tentatively approached little by little, and finally kicked him slightly.

"I have something to ask you!"

It's just that no matter what he says, this Shen Sizhuo is still motionless.

"Where did you hide the antidote?"

As soon as these words came out, it was as if he had touched a switch on Shen Sizhuo's body, and he opened his eyes at once.

"As long as you can keep me from dying, this son will tell you the whereabouts of the antidote!"
