"Where did you come from, a pretending wild knight, who dared to meddle in his affairs and injure our brother with a secret weapon?"

"This is my territory, why is it called a wild knight? I'm protecting my benefactor, so how can I say it's nosy? ”

"Since you are a local, haven't you heard of the name of our Ding brothers?"

"I've heard of you, but hearing about you is not the same thing as being afraid of you." The chivalrous man is not without contempt.

Ding Erxiong was so angry that he shouted: "If you are interested and say that it is a misunderstanding, we may even spare you, but since you are so arrogant, we will not talk nonsense with you, and even send you on the road together." As he spoke, the two men stabbed at the top of their swords.

The knight took two quick steps, and took advantage of the situation to draw his sword from behind his back, and fought with the two men. Ding's three heroes are also well-known masters, and they are very good at kung fu, although they only have one arm left, but after many years of adaptation and training, their combat power has not decreased too much. Although the knight has strong martial arts, if he fights alone, he has a great chance of winning, but he is a little powerless to deal with two people at the same time.

Shu Yan was in a hurry, but he couldn't help with his bare hands. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of the hammer he had brought for the grave, so he quietly picked it up, held it in his hand, walked behind Ding Sanxiong, and swept it over his ankle. Shu Yan was fierce, Ding Sanxiong was completely defenseless, and he was knocked to the ground at once, unable to struggle. Taking advantage of Ding Erxiong's distraction and panic, the knight struck two moves in a row to subdue him.

"Great benefactor......" Shu Yan escaped from death, overjoyed, and ran over to thank the chivalrous man for his life-saving grace.

The hero ignored him first, pulled out a rope from his waist and cut it into two with a sword, and threw it to Shu Yan and said, "Don't be careless, tie them up first before talking." ”

Shu Yan took the rope, tied up the two heroes of the Ding family with the hero, and then bowed down to the knight, who knew that the knight also bowed to Shu Yan. Shu Yan panicked: "Benefactor, what are you doing here?" ”

"Like you, Byrne."

Shu Yan is inexplicable, this kind of person really behaves strangely, different from ordinary people - "Hero, it was you who saved me, not me who saved you, why do you call me a benefactor?" ”

"Benefactors are not limited to saving lives, there are some things that are more important than saving lives. What I have done for you today is nothing more than what you have done for me! ”

"Hero, you ......"

The knight raised his head and slowly took off his hat. Shu Yan looked at it carefully, recognized it, and couldn't help but be surprised: "You are Tang Cangcao?" ”

"It's me."

This person is the son of Tang Gonggong, the former Ruyin Guocang Cao Tang Hui. Because of his involvement in Qiu Shoutai's corruption, he was used as a scapegoat by Qiu Shoutai and pushed out, and then absconded in fear of crime. After that, those things don't go away. Because it was exposed by Shu Yan, he hated Shu Yan to the bone at that time. Shu Yan also knew, so this meeting was still a little embarrassing.

The two men lifted each other. Shu Yan arched his hand and said: "I remember that when we served together in the Ruyin State Administration, in addition to looking for trouble with you, I really can't remember what benefits I have done to you, let alone kindness?" ”

When Tang Hui heard this, he didn't feel pale, and looked back at the earthen tomb and said, "Great Grace is here!" ”

"You mean Grandpa Tang?"

"Yes, everything you have done to my father is the greatest kindness to me, and it is also the greatest regret of my life!" Tang Hui tried hard to calm himself, and without waiting for Shu Yan to ask, he said to himself, "Back then, I had a bad character, although I inherited my father's martial arts, but I didn't want to serve the country and the people. Later, he became Cangcao, and he was greedy again, and he went astray for a while, and gave Qiu Shoutai a tiger. It wasn't until Qiu Shoutai made me a scapegoat and made me abscond in fear of sin, that I saw his true colors and reformed from then on. After that, every time I remember that you carried water for my father, spent Chinese New Year's Eve with him, drank together, and you got along so happily, I felt great remorse - all this you did should have been done by me! ”

"How do you know this, I have been to Grandpa Tang's house many times, but I have never met you?" Shu Yan asked.

"Of course you won't meet me. My father was disgusted by what I had done, he had lost faith in me, and he never wanted to talk about me as a son, and we were like we had severed our father-son relationship. But I know that he has two treasures in his hands, and I am afraid that he will pass them on to you, so I often hide in the shadows and spy on you. Those heart-warming daily little things are the source of my repentance. After some time, I sneaked home to show my remorse to my father, who died to apologize for my drunken wine. And all the aftermath such as wearing linen and filial piety, memorial and burial, etc., are all handled by you. I have not fulfilled my filial piety to my father, and I can't die to the end, I'm a son ......" Speaking of this, Tang Hui choked up for a while, "But fortunately, you have made up for what I owe to my father, so you are my great benefactor, this kind of great kindness, I Tang is unforgettable!" ”

After listening to this, Shu Yan understood, and asked again: "Then why did you get to Luoyang again, how did you know so much about my situation, and how did you know that I would encounter difficulties?" ”

"After all these changes, I completely repented. I have a good martial arts, and during my absconding, I followed those ancient and modern chivalrous warriors, acted chivalrous and righteous, and fought grievances. At first, I was very angry that my Ah Weng passed on the "Book of Music" and the treasure bow to you, but then I was relieved. But I'm not worried, I'm not worried about whether you will change your nature after you come to the flower world in Luoyang, and use those two treasures to oppress the good and make improper profits. I'll quietly go to Luoyang to spy on you. I happened to catch up with your iron-faced selfless inspector's car, and I heard rumors that you had smuggled 100,000 yuan to the poor people in the city on the night of Shangyuan. As for the two volumes of the Book of Music, they had already been handed over to the imperial court, and the bow had never been shown off in front of people. Not only was I completely relieved, but I also admired you very much, so I decided to help you secretly. Xun Bao grabbed Shu Jin back and wanted to grab your letter, it's not that I can't stop it, the reason why I didn't make a move is because I already know that their ultimate goal is to bring down Qiu Shoutai, and this is also the long-standing wish of you and Xia Tingchang, so I let them go to your lower house to retrieve it, and only left you a 'Ren Tingwei, no need to panic) after they succeeded. The gentleman lost the wild goose, and the horse was lost' hints to you. ”

In the minds of Tang Hui and even Shu Yan, the two volumes of "The Book of Music" should have been well preserved in the secretary's cabinet of the imperial court, but how did they know that they had actually been lost by Biyu at the Yuanzheng Conference for a long time. Just because the "Book of Music" is very precious and does not easily borrow from anyone, coupled with Sima Zhen's incompetence after his accession to the throne, Jia Nanfeng concentrated on the coup d'état, and the government was chaotic, so that no one noticed the loss of this peerless and unique book.

Shu Yan smiled and said humbly: "Then you escorted Shu Jin all the way back to Shujiazhuang and saved his life." It's just that Da En doesn't leave a name, but since you know that I will be in trouble and need your help, but you don't let me know who you are, when I really need you, how can I find you? ”

"Because of your righteousness! Because I know that no matter when you return to your hometown, you will not come to my father's grave to pay your respects, and I will wait for you here, yes. ”

"But how do you know you're going to do me that favor?" Shu Yan pointed at Ding's two males.

"They?" Tang Hui smiled and said, "They sent it to the door by themselves, it was purely a coincidence, I didn't know at all." When I say I want to help you, I don't mean this, but to help you bring down Qiu Shoutai! ”

"Huh? Is this true? ”

"Can I lie to you?"

"This ......" Shu Yan didn't know what to say excitedly, "I can't hide it, for this corruption case, we have reached the point of exhaustion, that is to say, not only can we not bring Qiu Shoutai down, but may even let the other party take us down." But-" Shu Yan was excited for a while, returned to his senses, and had a little doubt: "There are so many of us, and we haven't been able to bring him down after thinking of so many ways, what can you help us?" ”

"Let me know how you're doing these days."

"Hmm." Shu Yan recounted the whole process of the investigation to Tang these days.

Tang listened to it, pondered for a long time, and said: "There are many doubts but they are impeccable. The reason for this is unknown. In my opinion, we should also start with the yellow master book. Huang has followed Qiu Shoutai for many years and knows everything he has done over the years. I had a little friendship with him when I was Cangcao, and I could convince him. ”

"I'm afraid it won't work. Huang Zhushu didn't eat hard and soft, and refused to say anything. has carried it for so many days, and he is determined to wear a pair of pants with Qiu Shoutai. It is impossible to betray Qiu Shoutai and sacrifice his own interests because of that little friendship with you. ”

"Don't worry, I have the details of them, and he will have to confess when the time comes."

"What's the bottom line?" Shu Yan said in surprise.

"Qiu Shoutai is corrupt, he has always made two sets of account books, what he took out to show people is fake, and the real one is hidden in a secret place, that is, in the mezzanine of the floor of his study."

This sentence was simply an enlightenment for Shu Yan, "That's great, without further ado, let's hurry up and expose him." Thinking of Ding's two heroes again, "What about these two people?" ”

"Of course they have to be taken away together, maybe they will add another crime to Qiu Shoutai!"

Shu Yan nodded yes, and together with Tang Hui, he escorted the Ding Erxiong back to the Ruyin County Office. When they arrived at the county office, the two of them acted separately, Shu Yan took people to open the stolen goods, and notified Xia Tingchang, Ruoxin and others; Don went back to convince Huang.

Xun Bao was sitting dejectedly, and when he saw Shu Yan coming back, he said in a tone of resentment and frustration: "It's really over now, the palindrome of the imperial court has come down, let's go back to Luoyang immediately." Qiu Shoutai overturned the case! ”

Biyu was also on the side: "Hurry up, pack your things, just wait for you." ”

"What about Qiu Shoutai?" Shu Yan asked.

"As soon as the court's palindrome came, without waiting for us to agree, he directly regained his freedom without authorization, and now he is sitting in the lobby again."

"Okay, let's go straight to the lobby and summon him."

"What? Do you want to go up to the lobby? We have already been defeated, it is right to sneak back to Luoyang quietly as soon as possible, do you still want to bring shame on yourself? ”

"We can't catch the fox, but we make a fuss?" Shu Yan was serious, and suddenly smiled again, "I, a hunter, only catch foxes, and never cause trouble, although just follow me, and then meet this old fox." ”

Shu Yan turned his head and went. Xun Bao glanced at Biyu very blankly, and Biyu shook him: "Believe him, yes." The two of them followed Shu Yan to the lobby.

Some people died, but not completely......
