Section 5 Whatever is needed

The grass grows and the warbler flies, and the apricot rain and pear clouds are the March of the northern country. Beijing Chengdeng Shikou Street, the blue brick road stretches straight out, leading to the south gate.

In front of a magnificent mansion, the left and right two stone lions open their teeth and dance their claws, their demeanor is mighty, the flag is waving in the wind, the vermilion lacquer gate, the copper nails the size of a teacup on the door are shining, and the plaque on the top of the door reads "Nanzhen Fusi" four gold lacquer characters are shining. On the porch sat eight guards in strong suits, all of whom had straight waists and showed a heroic spirit.

Suddenly, there was the sound of horses' hooves in the backyard, and eight guards grabbed the stone steps and stood with their knives.

I saw five horsemen rushing out of the west gate and rushing along the road to the front of the gate. At first, a horse was red all over his body, and his stirrups were made of brass, and a middle-aged man on the saddle, about forty years old, had a face like a knife and cold eyes. There is a sense of non-anger and self-authority. Behind him were four horsemen, all dressed as Praetorian Guards.

One of the eight guards hugged his fists and said, "My subordinates have seen Yu Hou." ”

The middle-aged man's eyes swept coldly, "The old rule, prick up your ears and listen, don't ask questions, Shen Lian's mansion in Beicheng is raided, men, women and children are not allowed to get away with one person, and if you violate it, you will not be forgiven." ”……

The streets of Dashilan are full of traffic, bursts of shouting and shouting come from the rows of shops, and the streets are full of monkeys, singers, storytellers, fortune tellers, and garlic sellers, and ...... are very lively.

Xu Ping walked to a restaurant, ordered fried bean sprouts and alfalfa meat, and prepared to drink two cups, noisy footsteps outside, three well-dressed men with official boots sat down at the table next to them, ordered a few side dishes, and ordered a jar of wine, a few people with sad faces, did not speak, picked up the wine bowl and poured it directly, and after a while, a few people were red-faced, and their eyes gradually blurred.

Hehe, these people look like the officials of a certain department, and it is estimated that they were drunk and sulked by Shangguan.

Sure enough, one of the white fat men said: "The traitorous ministers are in charge of the government and block the way of speech, it is simply dark, although Shen Lian is a janitarian guard, but he is loyal and has never framed and killed any official, but now because of the impeachment of a martial artist, the whole family has been copied."

Another man with a thin and sallow face smiled slightly, "Brother Liu, although it is said that when the country was founded, the stone inscription agreed not to kill civil officials, but you don't look at Shen Lianshen?" ”

The white fat man: "Isn't it the head of Datong?"

"Yes, it's Qiu Luan on the surface." The thin man stroked his beard, "But don't you want to think about it, who did Qiu Luan recommend to become the chief soldier of Datong?" ”

The white fat man opened his mouth wide, "Yan ............?" ”

The thin man hurriedly looked around, turned around and lowered his voice, "Shhh...... don't get into trouble, I heard that Master Shen has the account book in his hand that Qiu Luan bought the Tatar peace, and if the account book falls into the hands of the saint, I am afraid that it will be strict...... That one can't get out of the way. ”

Another said: "That's true, I heard that the one who received a lot of benefits from Qiu Luan."

The white fat man was stunned, "I see, no wonder those righteous and outspoken imperial history books defended Shen Lian and were also imprisoned." ”

The thin man took the wine bowl and drank it all, looking very excited, "It's dark, but you and I can do the same with the light of the fireflies, listen...... Hearing that, Xu Jie and Yang Bo didn't dare to speak for Shen Lian. ”

After ...... call, the three of them sighed for a while, and lowered their heads and drank sullen wine.

I don't want the Yan family to be so powerful, and my grandfather Xu Jiegui is the second assistant of the cabinet, so I can only avoid its edge. Xu Pingzheng sighed to himself, and a man in ding costume came in, leaned over and said to him, "Yang Yushi said that you have passed the mansion and have important matters to discuss." ”

The dignified right capital of the imperial history, one of the three top smart people of the dynasty, why are you looking for yourself as a little prisoner? If something goes wrong, you will be a demon, you have to be careful, don't follow the way of these old rivers and lakes.

Xu Ping came to Yang's mansion slowly, and came back to pass the word after the doorman, and Lord Yang saw him in the back garden study.

After passing through the Sanjin courtyard, and passing through a section of the verandah and the rockery pond, Xu Ping came to the door of the study, and just wanted to ask Hou Tongyu out loud, there was a quarrel inside, and one of them spoke very much like his grandfather Xu Jie.

"Lord Yang, I am a straight man, I never go around the corner, let a child go to the edict prison to visit the prison, for him to get rid of the fame is small, maybe it will lead to death, and the catastrophe will never be recovered. This matter is absolutely inappropriate, and I will not mention it again in the future. ”

"Lord Xu, I really misjudged you, but you are really stubborn, you are in a hurry, what is the individual compared to Chaogang, and this child has another special relationship with Yan Shifan......"

"Shut up, this child is the flesh and blood of the Ding family, and it has nothing to do with Yan Shifan."

"Come on, old Xu Tou, don't you want to hide it from me, Ling Yuan went to Qinglong Temple to worship incense that year, and met ...... on the way"

"Shut up, the old man dares to talk nonsense again, be careful to turn his face with you immediately." ……

Could it be that I am really ......, Xu Ping didn't dare to think about it anymore, and sure enough, everyone knew my life experience, so they treated me as a monkey!

Xu Ping's face was pale, the green tendons on his forehead were bursting up, and the anger of being fooled was burning in his chest, he pushed the door in with his neck and said to the two people who were stunned on the spot: "Hmph, I don't care if you are really noisy or acting as a double reed, don't you just let me go to the Imperial Prison to visit the prison for questioning?" I took this job, whether it was a blessing or a curse, but I had one condition. ”

Yang Bo's expression moved, and he hurriedly asked, "Say it quickly, what are the conditions?"

"Tell me, who did my mother meet when she was incense, and what happened?"

"No, old Yang, you can't agree." Xu Jie covered his face in pain.

Yang Bo hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, I promise you." After a while, he turned to Xu Jie: "The old man can't help it, even if you kill me then, I will not hesitate to do it." …………
