The steward has been anxious since he left the Fang Mansion, and this is even worse after coming out of the Xuanping Mansion, especially the people on the street are coming and going, and the crowding is irritating.

The steward shouted "let go" while opening the way for himself with his hand, and suddenly, he heard the conversation of passers-by and stopped in his footsteps.

"I've heard that someone dares to assassinate the imperial court official in front of the town patrol department, this really doesn't take the black armor guard seriously..."

"Shhhh This is not the official of the Gu Mansion, saying that there is an assassin who assassinated the female relatives of the house, and it is said that the mastermind behind the scenes is the official who died at the gate of the town patrol. ”

"Really?"

Someone else approached.

"That can be fake, but the person who told me the news is a distant relative of my cousin's brother-in-law's uncle's neighbor, and the old lady works as a cook in the town patrol department, and she has a nose and an eye to hear it... But I can tell you, don't spread the word about it. ”

"Don't worry, let's be very tight, that is, if this news is true, then the assassination in front of the town patrol department, will it be directed and acted by the black armor guard... Woo..."

After all, the official on the front foot arranged for someone to assassinate the female dependents in the mansion of the Black Armor Guard, and on the back foot, the official was assassinated in front of the town patrol department.

If there is no conspiracy here, who will believe it!

It's just that as soon as these words came out, someone hurriedly covered his mouth.

"So dare to say that you don't want to die?"

What kind of existence is this black armor guard, don't you have any points in your heart? There are some things that you can speculate in your heart, and if you say it, you will simply live enough.

The man who covered his mouth also reacted, and his face turned pale.

The passers-by walked as they spoke, and as they disappeared into the crowd, their voices faded into silence.

The steward froze in place, his eyes blank and his lips trembling.

"No... Impossible... That must not be the master... The old man said, he is waiting for me to go back in the house..."

He muttered to himself, repeating the words over and over again, as if that would prove that everything he had just heard was not true.

It's just that when he staggered back to the street in front of the Fang Mansion, looking at the black armor guards surrounding the Fang Mansion, and the carriage of the Jingzhao Mansion in front of the Mansion Gate...

The steward only felt that his head was buzzing, and the sky was spinning for a while, and the whole person sat directly on the ground.

No... This can't be true...

He got up with his hands and feet and ran towards the gate of Fangfu, but after taking a few steps, he was stopped, covered his mouth, and dragged him to the alley on the side.

Someone saw it, but didn't dare to step forward.

The two men who dragged the steward away were the mansions specially arranged by Xuanping Hou, who knew some fists and feet, and his tendons and flesh were bulging, and he couldn't even cover them with clothes.

glared at the people next to him, and saw that many people hung their heads one after another.

There are also those who are not afraid, but they only took two steps before they were pulled away, "Don't go, the one who was caught is the steward of the Fang Mansion..."

The two assassinations today have caused a stir in the capital, and they are ordinary people, but they can't get into this troubled water.

After hearing this, the strength in his heart suddenly dissipated, and the whole heart retreated with palpitations, and cast a grateful look at the person who grabbed him.

"Thanks for the reminder."

In the alley.

The steward struggled, but to no avail, until he was dragged to a dead end in the alley, and the hand covering his mouth was removed.

He immediately said, "Who are you?" Let go of me..."

As he wished.

The two servants let go of the steward, but one stood aside and blocked the steward in the corner.

The steward didn't recognize the two of them, and thought it was someone sent by his master's opponent, and he looked frightened, his back pressed against the wall, and he quickly pondered how to deal with it.

Suddenly, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind the two, "Let the two of you invite people, that's how you invited?" ”

The two mansion Ding stiffened, and their fierce faces showed a little crampedness, and then scratched their heads to make way for them.

The steward took the opportunity to look and saw that the person who came was the person who had been seen in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion not long ago and was following the Xuanping Marquis.

"The two of them are the mansion in the house, and they thought that they would be able to do some fist and foot kung fu, so that they could come and stop you faster, but they never thought that the two of them would act so recklessly, and I ask you to forgive me."

The man bowed his hand apologetically, then took out an envelope from his arms and handed it over, "I think you have seen it in front of the second aunt's mansion, so I won't say much."

What is placed here is your deed, which has passed the clear road of the government, and the household registration has been completed, so you are no longer a slave.

In addition, there is also a guide inside, and the gold and silver are also prepared for you, so that people can hold it and wait in the alley. ”

The man paused, then continued, "The destination in this guide is still empty, do you have a place you want to go?" ”

The steward looked at the envelope in front of him in a daze, and every word of the subordinate turned into a cold chill, enveloping him.

There was only one thought left in his mind.

The lord lied to him.

The little hope left in my heart was shattered.

"No... I'm not leaving..."

The steward pushed away the hand holding the envelope in front of him, and before the three of them could react, he pulled his leg and ran out of the alley.

He didn't recognize the deed.

He is a slave of the Fang family, a slave who has signed a death contract.

He wants to go back to the house and go back to the old man to be buried.

It's a pity that before he ran a few steps, the two mansions caught up, directly subdued him with brute force, and dragged him back.

The steward was rigidly bound, his eyes were scarlet, and he struggled, screaming hysterically at the trio, "Let go of me, let me go back... Let me go back! ”

Xuanping Hou's subordinates understand the steward at this moment very well, if he is in the same situation as the steward, he will also make the same decision and live and die with his master.

But......

"I know your thoughts, but can you calm down and think about it, if it weren't for the second aunt's entrustment, my marquis would help with it?"

The subordinate raised his hand, clasped the steward's arms, looked at him, and said earnestly: "If you are really loyal, you should obey the arrangement and live well, don't let everything that the second aunt has done for you be in vain." ”

The steward was stunned, his eyes reddened, and tears rolled in his eyes.

Seeing this, the subordinate sighed slightly in his heart, and his mouth was striking while the iron was hot, "The matter of the second aunt is a foregone conclusion."

But the little lady is still there, and that is the only bloodline of the second aunt.

If you really don't want to leave the capital, then you will go incognito and find a job in the capital, even if you live a poorer life, you can't stay by the side of the little lady.

But at least, I can watch her grow up for my second aunt and become my own child..."

As soon as these words came out, the steward couldn't control it anymore, and tears rolled down.

The subordinate didn't say anything, let go of his hand, and let the two mansions also loosen the restraint on the steward, just watched the steward gradually squat, hugging his head and crying.

It wasn't until the crying voice slowly became smaller that he continued to speak, "I've said everything that should be said and shouldn't be said, think about it yourself, if you still have the iron heart to go back to Fangfu, we won't stop you." ”

The steward's body moved, he raised his head, wiped the snot and tears from his face with his sleeve, and his eyes gradually became firm.

"No, you're right."

He stood up and took the envelope.

But there is no way to stay in the capital, there are too many people in the capital who know him.

The world is seeking profit, the old man is accused of assassinating the female relatives of the Gu Mansion behind the scenes, if he wants to stay, he can only hide his name and follow those poor people who came to the capital to make a living...

The steward obeyed the arrangement, went out of the alley, took the gold and silver prepared by Xuanping Hou, and went out of the capital.

Before leaving, he carried his burden and looked back at the words "Yanjing City" above the city gate.

"Sooner or later, I'll be back."
