"Hey, the prime minister is your master, I thought it was the prime minister himself, you are a slave, and when you go out, you represent the façade of the prime minister, so arrogant and not afraid that the official will know, do you have a copy of your master?"

Lin Fan, who was born in modern society, had no sense of awe for the ancient bureaucratic class, and looked at the Diao slave coldly with the strength of wine, and said sarcastically.

"What are you? Where did the little brute come from. Hearing this, the Diao slave turned around and squinted at Lin Fan, and cursed disdainfully.

"Who is the little brute scolding?" Lin Fan feigned anger.

"The little brute scolded you... Hey! Diao Nu picked up a sentence without thinking, and then reacted that it was wrong, and suddenly became furious, raised his hand and pointed at Lin Fan, and wanted to let the guards behind him do it.

Guan Sheng hurriedly pushed Lin Fan behind him, took two steps forward and walked in front of the other party, and said with a smile: "Rest your anger, my friend has drunk too much and offended, my father and the prime minister's protégé have a lot of friendship, please look at your father's face, don't mind this matter." ”

Saying that, he took out a silver ticket from his arms and handed it over, he said that this was true, but he deliberately did not identify himself, just vaguely, if the other party saw that it was good, it would be okay to put forward the name of the Longmen Dart Bureau, if the other party did not forgive, he directly pulled Lin Fan to escape, find a place to hide, and then find a way to get out of the city, and the trouble would not easily find the head of the Longmen Dart Bureau.

Seeing Guan Sheng's groveling appearance because of himself, Lin Fan suddenly sobered up, and the drunkenness dissipated a lot, secretly scolding himself for not having a long memory, the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change, how can he not control himself to cause trouble.

This is the imperial city, not an ordinary township and village, nor is it a small city far away from the emperor, if you are brave for a while, you are afraid that you will not be able to escape, after all, your martial arts are far from the point where you can come and go freely anywhere.

Lin Fan didn't want to involve Guan Sheng, so he quietly bumped into him, didn't let him hand over the silver ticket, and prepared to give himself a soft face. Even if the other party doesn't give up, he won't take his life in public because of a quarrel.

"The minion outside the door." It seemed that he saw the embarrassment of Lin Fan and the others, and without waiting for Lin Fan to speak, the middle-aged man in the private room suddenly spoke.

"Go back, when your prime minister comes, I will give up my position."

"Hey, I'm talking about you." Sure enough, the Diao slave's attention was attracted by the man, and he walked into the private room angrily, stood in front of the man, and sneered: "Why don't you toast and eat." ”

As he spoke, he suddenly picked up the wine jug, threw it in the man's face, and continued: "Eat the penalty wine!" ”

"Presumptuous!"

One of the guards shot out like thunder and used internal force to block the drink, and the other two guards were furious, quickly drew their swords, and prepared to kill Diao Nu in front of them on the spot, but the man opened his arms and blocked them back.

The last guard, like an old monk, appeared behind the Diao slave at some point, and he didn't move, but just watched the development of the situation quietly with a blank face.

The guards behind the Diao slave also drew their weapons one after another, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense, seeing that a big battle was about to happen, the man burst out laughing, breaking the tense atmosphere.

He raised his head for the first time and looked at the Diao slave playfully, as if he was watching some big joke, Huo Ran got up and said, "It's just a restaurant seat, let it go, why be angry?" For some reason, he accentuated the word restaurant.

As he spoke, he walked past the minion with his head held high, paused slightly at the door, looked at the guards facing him with swords, and said coldly, "Get out of the way." ”

Seeing that the slave who took the lead did not speak, several guards did not dare to move, and only after receiving the signal of their eyes did they retreat to the sides and let the men and their group leave.

"Let's go together." When passing by Lin Fan and Guan Sheng, the man greeted lightly.

After leaving the restaurant, the man glanced at Lin Fan and Guan Sheng, and asked with a slight smile: "Jianghu people?" ”

"Exactly, I don't know who you are?" Guan Sheng clasped his fists and saluted, and asked tentatively.

"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that you are young, since you have a good skill, why don't you join the army? Wandering the rivers and lakes and acting chivalrous and righteous, to put it bluntly, it is just a chivalrous violation of the ban with martial arts, and the courage of a horseman. ”

After speaking, he turned around and left with the guards, leaving only Lin Fan and Guan Sheng looking at each other on the same ground.

"Why don't we go too?"

"Where are you going?"

"I remember that Brother Ren Jianhan of Sword Casting Villa is in Luoyang, let's go visit him first?"

"That's very good."

After some discussion, the two also left in the other direction.

The middle-aged man wandered aimlessly in the city of Hangzhou, and on a slightly quiet street, there was a gazebo on the corner, in which several old men sat together and played chess.

It seemed that the chess game had aroused the interest of the middle-aged man, and he took a few steps closer to the gazebo, as if his eyesight was excellent, and he could still see the chess pieces on the chessboard from a distance of a few feet.

"Shadow, go check our Prime Minister, what kind of distinguished guests are going to be received today." The middle-aged man muttered to himself as he looked at the chess game.

"Yes."

With a response, the barely visible guard vanished as if out of thin air. Before the game was over, the guard, known as Shadow, returned to his place.

"Your Majesty, the prime minister did not meet with anyone today, and that person is not a slave, but the prime minister's distant nephew, who is going to have a banquet for friends today and robbed that private room for the sake of face."

The middle-aged man is none other than the current emperor of the Xia Dynasty, Xuanyuan Haoyang. And the four people behind him are his personal guards, wind, thunder, shadow, and shield.

After he heard the guard's announcement, he suddenly laughed, and after laughing enough for a while, he spoke: "It's really a person who has attained the Tao of Chicken and Dog to ascend to heaven, but the more this happens, the more it proves that our prime minister is really powerful now, and he has reached the point where no one dares to provoke without scruples." ”

"Your Majesty, that arrogant person dared to be disrespectful to you, why didn't you let me kill them at that time." The other guard asked in a deep voice with an angry face.

Xuanyuan Haoyang turned his head and glanced at him, and said in response: "Feng, does he know that I am the emperor?" ”

"It's... I don't know, otherwise how dare he..."

"Then he is not bullying the emperor, but a common people, and the powerful oppress the people, isn't it a matter of course? Weakness is the original sin, just like the first emperor once said, if you are backward, you will be beaten. ”

"But you're clearly who—" The Wind Guard interjected reluctantly.

"There are so many ghosts and ghosts in this world, if I care about each of them and get angry with them, won't I be angry endlessly? This kind of inconsequential person is not worth my anger. ”

"Your Majesty, it's better to kill them and send them to the Prime Minister's Mansion, so that the Prime Minister can be restrained." Guard Ray suggested thoughtfully.

"No, if you want it to perish, you must first let it go crazy, if our prime minister has some restraint, then how can I get rid of him? What's more, there is one less prime minister, and there are so many prime ministers, if they want to move, they will move together, from top to bottom, or they will not move at all. ”

"Let's go, go back to the palace. Fighting with the sky, fighting with the earth, and fighting with people, the fun is endless. After a game of chess, Xuanyuan Haoyang seemed to have lost interest in watching, turned around and walked towards the palace with the guards.

"If the first emperor stays, you often talk about it." The shield guard muttered quietly.

"Life is hard enough, how can you be not optimistic?" Xuanyuan Haoyang stroked his white sideburns, and said to himself: "The first emperor restored the country with force, but he couldn't rule the country with force. The suspicion is so serious, and the indiscriminate killing of heroes causes the monarch and ministers to be separated, and the imperial power is unstable. In his later years, even his descendants had to beware of dispersing power into the hands of many powerful ministers, almost making future generations puppets. I don't know how many generations it will take to save this mess. If it fails, then the people are innocent, the powerful are not guilty, but the Son of Heaven has become a sinner through the ages, and I don't know what to be scolded by the people of the world, just like the first emperor said, history is rewritten by the victors..."

At the gate of a manor in Luoyang City, Ren Jianhan hurriedly ran out, saw the two people waiting at the door, and greeted him with a smile: "Brother Lin, this... If I'm not mistaken, it should be the Guan Sheng brothers of the Dragon Gate Dart Bureau. ”

"Brother Ren has good eyesight." Guan Sheng smiled and arched his hand.

Lin Fan pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice, "I'm face blind when I close it." ”

"Last time I said goodbye, Brother Moxin said he was coming, so I waited in the manor, and I didn't dare to go anywhere, but I didn't expect Brother Moxin to come, Brother Lin and Brother Guan arrived first, please come in." As he spoke, he turned around and led the way for Lin Fan and the others.

"Brother Ren said this, as if he was saying that he didn't come when he should have come, and he didn't come first." Lin Fan quipped.

Ren Jianhan was stunned when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Brother Lin said that I was joking, where did I mean this." ”

"I've heard the name of Sword Casting Villa, I wonder if Brother Ren can take us to observe the scene of sword casting?" Guan Sheng suddenly proposed.

Ren Jianhan shook his head and explained: "Our Sword Casting Villa is outside the city, this is just a place to live, you can stay for the time being, and tomorrow I will be the host, take you around Luoyang City, and then go to the villa." ”

"But then again, Brother Ren, your family is really big." Lin Fan looked at Nuoda's manor and sighed.

Ren Jianhan smiled when he heard this: "Brother Lin, we haven't arrived at the residence yet, this is just the front hall." ”

“What?” Lin Fan was stunned for a moment, looked around, and said in his heart Is this preparing to build a highway at home? Turning his head to look at Ren Jianhan, he asked with a bit of banter in his eyes: "I don't know if Brother Ren, Ling Zun's three hobbies are smoking, drinking and burning his hair?" ”

"What's that?"
