Shangguan Xiu looked at the few family members standing in the corner and said, "What are you still doing in a daze? Come and help you adults!"

Those few family members woke up like a dream, hurriedly stepped forward, took Liu Yun's arm from Shangguan Xiu's hand, and almost helped him to sit on the chair in the hall.

"Brother Xiu!"

Seeing Shangguan Xiu, Luo Ren and the others were surprised and delighted, and shouted one after another, saying, "Brother Xiu, let's ...... it."

Before they could finish speaking, Shangguan Xiu waved his hand and said, "I already know!" As he spoke, he walked up to Wang Dao's corpse, lifted his leg and kicked the corpse off the chair, and then he picked up the wine glass on the table, looked down, and the wine was red and white, he frowned, threw the wine glass aside, lifted the wine jug, and poured a sip of wine.

Liu Yun looked at the corpse that fell to the ground with only half of his head left, and after identifying it for a long time, his face changed suddenly, and the whole person bounced up from the chair, pointed to the corpse and said, "This ...... This is Lord Wang?"

Shangguan Xiu put down the flask and looked at it puzzledly, as if to say: What you said is not nonsense!

He shrugged his shoulders and smiled, and said: "It has always been rumored outside that Lord Wang is only greedy for wine and ignores government affairs, it seems that rumors are rumors after all, not accurate, Lord Liu is not ambiguous at all when he kills people!"

"Kill...... Murder? I ...... When did I kill someone?"

Hearing him say this, Luo Ren and the others almost laughed out loud, this Liu Yun, is too forgetful, right, how long has it been, and he doesn't remember anything?

Shangguan Xiu nodded solemnly at Liu Yun and said, "Lord Liu is the one he just killed!"

Liu Yun gasped and said urgently: "Lord Shangguan, can't you talk nonsense......? Who did this officer kill just now?"

Shangguan Xiu blinked his eyes and raised his hand to point at Wang Dao's corpse on the ground.

Liu Yun stared roundly, pointed back to his nose, and stammered and screamed, "You...... You say I'm putting the king ...... Wang Dao killed?"

Shangguan Xiu looked at Luo Ren and the others, Luo Ren and the others were also looking at him, everyone's expressions were the same, Liu Yun couldn't be crazy, right? Shangguan Xiu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It seems that Lord Liu is really drunk, he doesn't even remember what he did, you don't believe my words, you should always believe the words of the servants of the City Lord's Mansion, you ask them what happened just now." ”

Liu Yun subconsciously looked at the subordinates around him.

The servants all nodded their heads, indicating that Shangguan Xiu had not said anything, and one of the elderly butlers said in a trembling voice: "Big ...... My lord, just now, just now you asked Lord Wang and Lord Luo to appreciate the sword, but you suddenly, suddenly drew your sword and ...... Give Lord Wang ...... Kill ......"

"What?" Liu Yun's scalp was numb, he looked at the butler, and then at the other servants, and everyone nodded their heads, indicating that the butler was right. He stood there, dumbfounded, and after a while, like a deflated ball, he staggered back into his chair, his eyes straightened, and he muttered, "How can this be......?"

He really doesn't remember anything, he was obviously reading in the study, and then he seemed to have fainted suddenly, what happened next, he didn't know at all, and when he woke up again, he found Shangguan Xiu by his side, could he have fallen evil today?

It doesn't matter if you are evil, the key is how can you kill Wang Dao, how can this be good?! In an instant, Liu Yun broke out in a cold sweat, and his body sitting on the chair suddenly trembled.

Shangguan Xiu smiled and said slowly: "Don't worry, Lord Liu, even if you don't kill this thief, I want to kill this thief! Tonight's incident, my brothers and I will not spread the word to the outside world, Lord Liu only needs to take care of the mouths of the servants of the City Lord's Mansion, in the future, no one will know that Wang Dao was killed by Lord Liu, people will only know that Wang Dao died at the hands of the assassins of Fanren!, right?" As he spoke, he looked back at Luo Ren and the others.

Luo Ren and the others nodded together, and said righteously: "That's right! Wang Dao was killed by the assassin!"

Shangguan Xiu smiled, looked at the servants around Liu Yun again, and asked, "Do you think Wang Ji died at the hands of assassins?"

Those servants had already been frightened when they saw Luo Ren and the others killing Wang Dao's entourage just now, and now where do they dare to say half a word, people nodded like pounding garlic, and said in a loud voice: "Yes, yes, Wang Dao was killed by the assassin!"

"Look, Wang Dao did die at the hands of assassins, not at the hands of your Lord Liu, what else is Lord Liu afraid of?" Shangguan Xiu walked up to Liu Yun with a smile, and when he saw that he was in a cold sweat, he took out a handkerchief from Liu Yun's cuffs, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and continued: "We helped Lord Liu, I hope Lord Liu can also do us a favor!"

"Up...... Lord Shangguan wants to be the official ......"

"Wang Dao is dead, there is no longer a city lieutenant in Huya Pass, who does Lord Liu think should take over the position of city lieutenant temporarily?" Shangguan Xiu asked softly with a smile.

Looking at Shangguan Xiu, who was full of smiles but had a terrifying light in his eagle eyes, Liu Yun couldn't help but shudder, and he hurriedly answered: "It should be Lord Shangguan who takes over!"

Shangguan Xiubu made this game tonight, and what he wanted most was Liu Yun's words.

He put down Liu Yun's handkerchief, straightened his body, stared at him for a moment, and laughed on his back, after that, he put his hands behind his back and said: "Lord Liu is smart and knows how to be an official, I think you, the city lord of Huyaguan, will not be a problem for another ten or twenty years!haha!"

Liu Yun's eyes rolled, and he immediately understood what Shangguan Xiu meant. After he took over as the city captain, as long as he continued to be the lord of Taiping City, as long as he still didn't care about anything, his life would not change much.

He was able to understand it at one point, hurriedly stood up, and arched his hand and said: "In the future, the affairs of Huya Pass will all depend on Lord Shangguan, and with a young talent like Lord Shangguan in my Huya Pass, I, the city lord, can also sit back and relax." ”

Sure enough, it's a smart person. Shangguan Xiu arched his hand and smiled: "Lord Liu is too awarded. ”

"Tomorrow, I will send a letter to the county keeper and the county lieutenant, asking the county government to order the promotion of Shangguan to the city lieutenant of Huya Pass. Liu Yun Zhengse said.

"The city captain of Huya Pass, Lord Liu should not be nominated for me, but nominated for my brother, Lord Luo Renluo!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was also shocked, including Luo Ren, Zhan Xiong, Cao Lei and others. Brother Xiu can obviously be a city captain, why should he give up the position of city captain to Ah Ren?

Luo Ren hurriedly said, "Brother Xiu, I'm ...... I can't ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Shangguan Xiu raised his hand and stopped him from saying something below. He said to Liu Yun: "Lord Liu, let's do it this way, I'll wait for your good news." As for the corpses of these people, we will help you dispose of them. ”

"Yes, yes, Lord Shangguan is whatever he says. Liu Yun wiped the cold sweat on his face and nodded again and again.

Shangguan Xiu and others suppressed his killing of Wang Dao, and he could continue to be the city lord, but he was also caught by Shangguan Xiu by the pigtails, so he could only obey his words and dare not have any objections.

"Say goodbye!" Shangguan Xiu smiled at Liu Yun, shook his head at Luo Ren and the others, and said, "Take these corpses, let's go!"

The people led by Shangguan Xiu walked out of the City Lord's Mansion, and when they got outside, Cao Lei asked, "Brother Xiu, do you want to throw these corpses outside the city?"

"Don't worry, we still have to go to the City Captain's Mansion. ”

"To the City Captain's Mansion?"

"Anyone in the city captain's mansion, no matter who it is, will not be left behind. Shangguan Xiu turned his head, and the expression on his face flashed with a gloomy coldness.

"Understood!" everyone agreed.

Wang Dao is not easy to kill, because he has the signboard of the imperial court official to protect himself, but the people who kill the city governor's mansion don't need those concerns, just press a crime, and even frame Wang Dao who they murdered, anyway, there is no proof of death, whatever you want.

Luo Ren held Wang Dao's corpse in one hand and half of his skull in the other, walked quickly to Shangguan Xiu's side, and asked with a puzzled face, "Why did Brother Xiu let me be a city captain?"

"If you nominate me, there is a good chance that you will be blocked by the county government. ”

The official of the city lieutenant is not big, only seven grades, but after all, he is in charge of the military power of a city, and the nomination of the city lieutenant must not only pass through the county government, but also through the county government.

Huya Pass is far away from the emperor and doesn't know his life experience, but the county government may not be unclear, seeing that it is not only difficult to pass the nomination of himself as a city captain, but it will also be transferred to a new city captain if the county government is not good, it will be too extraneous.

"So that's the case!" Luo Ren was somewhat relieved when he heard this, he thought that Brother Xiu was going to pick a son and leave!

Shangguan Xiu narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's finish the affairs of the City Captain's Mansion first, and then we'll go back for a meeting." ”

"Yes! Brother Xiu!" everyone agreed in unison, and strode towards the City Captain's Mansion.

That night, a tragedy occurred in Huya Pass.

Wang Dao and his family, a total of more than 30 people, were all killed, and the blood in the city captain's mansion was like a river.

Early the next morning, the city lord Liu Yun ordered someone to post a notice, which conclusively determined that the case was the work of the Ba people hidden in the city, and asked the soldiers and civilians in the city to actively provide clues about the Ba people, and to find out the details hidden in the city.

Wang Dao's death made the soldiers and civilians of Huya Pass all happy and happy, and people almost didn't put out the lights and set off firecrackers, who would care about where the Ba people's meticulous work was hidden?

With Liu Yun's active cooperation, this case has become a headless unsolved case, and it will not be resolved, but there are enough headless unsolved cases in Huyaguan, and it is not worse than such a case.

At night, when the city captain's mansion was killing, Shangguan Xiu and others also found a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, which were all money and property that Wang Dao had looted and robbed over the years.

Back in their small courtyard, Sui Tangjing, Jia Caixuan and others immediately greeted them, and when they saw a lot of large boxes they had brought back, everyone was stunned and asked, "What are these things?"
