The wide entrance road to the city shelters the warm morning sun.

dim, gradually swallowing Ang Lee.

Li An still had a smile on his face at this time, but this smile looked extraordinarily infiltrating, just like the impermanence of Bai Impermanence, smiling Mimi, please leave.

"I'm back."

As the light appeared, the second uncle appeared at the end of the surge.

At this time, the second uncle is no longer dressed in a blue headcatcher.

It's the same brocade dress as Dongfang Yu and others.

"Well, I'm back, and I've gained a lot."

Li An grinned, but his smile was not happy.

glanced at the burden on Ang Lee's shoulders, and saw that there was a large string of weasels on it, especially the one at the front, almost like a villain.

The second uncle nodded with satisfaction, and reached out to change the orange.

"You bring Anzi's things back to the yamen and report to the county lord, I have already told him."

"Yes, head."

Orange nodded solemnly, bowed deeply at Du Yuan's fist, and shouted his head one last time.

The second uncle patted Orange's shoulder with relief, glanced at it coldly, Dongfang Yu, who came out of the corridor, pulled Li An home.

Along the way, the uncle and nephew did not communicate at all, and went home in silence one after the other.

"An'er, you're back, everything is fine."

As soon as the two pushed the door and walked into the house, a woman walked up, saw Li An's tired expression, and touched Li An's face distressedly.

Feeling the second aunt's concern, Li An showed a reluctant smile and replied: "Everything is going well, the monsters have been eliminated, and the family is safe." ”

"It's good to get rid of it, your second uncle is really good, how can such a dangerous thing be let you go, if something happens, how can I explain it to your mother?"

"Okay, okay, don't nag, the child has been busy all night, and he hasn't eaten yet, so you go cook something to eat first."

The second uncle knew that Li An was in a bad mood now, and was worried that the second aunt's nagging would cause Li An's upset, so he drove the other party to cook first.

"Okay, I'll go cook first, you go in and talk to your second uncle first, don't keep some things in your heart, otherwise you will hold back yourself."

The second aunt ignored the second uncle, comforted Li An a few words, and then walked into the kitchen and got busy.

"Sister Yuemei is still at the fourth sister-in-law's house."

Li An glanced at the courtyard and didn't see his own moon sister.

"Yes, Xiaosi just left, the people from my hometown will arrive tomorrow, their orphans and widows are at home, I don't worry, so I let Xiaoyue take care of them for two days."

The two walked to the pavilion, and the second uncle glanced at the ghost head knife that Li An had unloaded, and advised: "This knife is very fierce, as you kill, the more evil it becomes, so try to use it less in the future." ”

Li An nodded silently, and after taking the second uncle's saber and putting it away, he sat on the chair and was silent.

Looking at Ang Li, who was usually cheerful, suddenly became silent, and the second uncle sighed a little distressed.

"Your master's business......"

"I understand."

As soon as the second uncle was about to explain the reason, Li An interrupted his words and said forcefully: "I can understand your difficulties, didn't you tell me, officialdom is like this, sometimes it's not that you don't want to save it, but you can't do anything." ”

Li An was able to understand himself, and the second uncle breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

He was really worried that Ang Lee would resent himself because he didn't save Master Ang Lee.

"Yesterday there was a thousand households from Jiangzhou Mansion named Zhang Hu. Coincidentally, he is Zhang Wen's second uncle.

He once joined the army at the border pass, and was later promoted to the imperial attack guard because of his merits, and was a hardcore supporter of His Majesty.

Tianlingwei was formed, and because of his loyalty and merit, he was appointed by His Majesty as a thousand households in Jiangzhou Mansion to lead and manage the entire Jiangzhou Mansion Tianlingwei. ”

"Your master and those two prisons and that interrogator are the ones he ordered to kill for his nephew Zhang Wen's anger, and the person who did it was the deputy Qianhu Dongfang Yu who spoke to you at the city gate."

After introducing the enemy's situation, the second uncle looked at Li An and said seriously: "I am telling you this, not because I want you to recklessly assassinate the two of them and avenge your master." I want to tell you who these people are, and who are your opponents when you take revenge in the future. ”

"Also, I advise you to give up the idea of assassination."

The second uncle got up and stood beside Li An, reached out and pressed Li An's shoulder.

"Officialdom has the rules of officialdom, if you want to take revenge, frame false accusations or even splash dirty water, but it is absolutely not allowed to use indiscriminate means to assassinate, this is the rule set by the founding emperor, if you dare to break this rule, it is to be the enemy of the entire court and all the officials in the court.

Because no one wants their own family, they have to be on guard every day, assassination and poisoning of opponents, including you.

You don't want your enemy to send someone to assassinate your father, my second aunt, Xiaoyue, one day.

An'er, you have to remember one sentence, when you enter a circle, before you have the strength to change the rules, you must abide by this rule, otherwise you will die without a place to be buried. ”

Stretching out his hand to lift Li An's head, the second uncle looked at Li An's bloodshot eyes, and said solemnly: "If you want to avenge your master, then you will work hard to be promoted, and work hard to strengthen yourself, when your official rank is greater than the other party, when your strength surpasses the other party, whether the other party is alive or dead, it is all in your thoughts."

You can't be brave, otherwise if you're not careful, you'll become a knife in the hands of others, and once you're no longer sharp or lose your value, you'll be ruthlessly abandoned.

Even your family will be implicated in this. ”

Night, outside the city.

The firelight in the basin shone in Ang Lee's eyes, and pieces of paper money scattered and fell with the night breeze.

Li An knelt next to the master's corpse and mechanically threw a piece of paper money into the brazier.

Next to several corpses, several men and women wept and burned paper money.

Originally, these people did not dare to come, so they could only watch the corpses of their relatives hang there, waiting to be devoured by wild beasts at night.

But in the evening, when he saw Li An alone, wearing linen and filial piety, carrying a spirit flag, holding a paper money offering, and protecting his master's body, those brocade-clothed people also pretended not to see it.

They finally couldn't bear it anymore, and with the memorial items, they threw themselves next to the corpses of their relatives, howling and crying bitterly.

Tian Lingwei, who looked at the corpses, wanted to drive them away, but he was forced back by Li An's words, don't be too ruthless, and the murderous eyes.

It's also strange to say.

During the day, Master Li An's corpse still had a hideous expression and wide eyes.

But after Li An took the spirit banner and memorial items, and burned the paper next to the old man in linen and filial piety, the old man's eyes were closed, the hideous expression on his face was relaxed, and there was even a trace of a regretless smile on the corner of his mouth.

As the time gradually entered the night, listening to the faint cry in his ears, Li An took out a stick of incense from his sleeve, lit it and inserted it at the feet of the master's corpse.

As the light smoke of incense slowly drifted away, the weeping man who threw himself at the feet of the other three corpses, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally fell asleep on the ground.

Confirming that the people around him were already asleep, Li An opened the filial piety clothes on his body, revealing the night clothes inside.

Putting on a paper figure that had been prepared a long time ago, Li An pulled out a short knife, looked in the direction of the city, and disappeared into the night.

Except for the sound of the flames burning, there was only a whisper, which was blown away by the night wind in the night.

"Second uncle, I'm sorry, my rules are the rules!"
