The night air is fresh, the dust is gone, the moonlight is as clean as silver, and the fire trees and silver flowers that rise from the sky above the song and dance workshop are like thousands of trees blooming, like stars and rain, and the moonlight complement each other.

Many luxurious carriages passed through the streets with the fragrance of fat and powder, passed through the brilliant lights, stepped through the melodious sound of phoenix flutes, passed through the singing of yellow orioles, and passed through the laughter and laughter of people.

At this moment, the attention of those girls is all focused on the bodies of those dignitaries, their posture is swaying, their appearance is good, their tone is charming, standing upstairs or at the door to beckon those men to come in, and the men are naturally dazzled by the prosperity and the beauty of the girls, and no one notices that an ordinary small sedan chair, with the cooperation of several dumb slaves, quietly entered the secret door of the butterfly love flower.

"Xie Ye'er, please go inside, our master has been waiting for a long time." Just looking at a corner, the long-waiting butterfly love flower manager saw the small sedan chair stop, so he hurriedly walked to the sedan chair, bowed his head to welcome the arrival of the person, and said very respectfully.

"Why, your master is afraid that I will settle the account, so he doesn't dare to come to see me directly, but let you come to meet me." The man sat in the sedan chair for a long time before he spoke without being salty.

"Naturally not, the master said, Xie Ye'er, you are definitely not here to settle the account, let me welcome you, our master was assassinated last night, and it is really inconvenient to move, so I made this decision, and please Xie Ye'er to check clearly~"

"I was assassinated last night just after I made my family's money, and it seems that I am really unlucky.

It seems that next time, you have to remind your master that it is best not to earn your own money, otherwise it will be easy to get into trouble. The man in the sedan chair who heard Mo Guan's explanation was so mocking the unlucky man who was assassinated, but in action, he immediately lifted the sedan chair and walked towards the secret door, walking in a hurry, it is not difficult to see his worry.

"Butterfly Love Flower" workshop from the appearance, just a simple three-storey red satin small stilted building, at a glance of the structure, but the inside is hidden, "Butterfly Love Flower" workshop in the construction of the "stilted building" of the construction, but in fact, the "Butterfly Love Flower" workshop is actually built with the combination of mortise and tenon structure and mechanism, divided into two parts of the front building and the back building, the front building is the drunken gold fan of the gold nest, and the back, is hidden in the rivers and lakes of the largest butterfly network assassination intelligence organization - Yu Butterfly.

There are always some shrewd people in the world who can guess where the "rain butterfly" is, so someone can know the relationship between the rain butterfly and the butterfly love flower, and if you go down the river, you can guess without accident that the master behind the butterfly love flower and the rain butterfly is the same person, that is, the world's first thief saint who has dominated the rivers and lakes for many years - Gao Qi.

But the shrewd people of this world, even if they rack their brains and want to break their heads, they can only know the relationship between the thief Saint Gao Qi and this "Butterfly Love Flower" and "Rain Butterfly".

However, no one can know that Xie Ruqing, a powerful man in the dynasty, and Gao Qi, a thief, are friends of life and death, like a pink lotus, the lotus root is broken, one of them is an official and one is a bandit, one black and one white, on the bright side, in secret, they have accumulated staggering wealth and power~

Xie Ruqing took the "Organ Cloud Ladder" to the top floor of the "Butterfly Love Flower", and walked to a pair of landscape ink and green pictures with ease, and then, lifted the landscape ink and green map, and pressed it lightly in a certain place behind it, and saw a door on the stone wall at the end of this corridor.

"It seems that my mechanism design is still too simple, every time, you don't need my people to lead the way, you can find the switch~ makes me worry about my safety here~"

As soon as Xie Ruqing walked into the room, he saw a black-haired man with a topless body wearing a bronze unicorn mask like him changing his dressing, stopped what he was doing, looked at him with a smile, and said helplessly.

Xie Ruqing couldn't help frowning when he smelled the smell of blood wafting in the room, and then walked up to the man wearing the bronze unicorn mask, took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve and put it on the table and said:

"You really need to design the mechanism here, and it's a shame that you can be assassinated in your own territory."

Gao Qi smiled casually, picked up the small bottle, looked at it for a while, and said:

"This medicine is good, I didn't expect you to carry this with you, it's not bad~ I just laughed~

But, heh, my tricks can't prevent you, it's not someone from outside who assassinated you, it's just that my subordinate came up with something to eat inside and out, and he was careless for a while, but let him stab me. ”

Xie Ruqing naturally took off the black cloak on his body, sat next to Gao Qi, handed him gauze and said:

"Being able to get close to you should be quite trustworthy, which one?"

"You should have an impression, sophomore in high school, many years ago, I picked up an orphan in a small tribe that was exterminated on the border."

"It's him, who has been raised by your side since childhood, what made him betray you."

"I didn't expect that you are still interested in this matter, it's okay to tell you, he is the good friend of Rushuang, Rushuang betrayed me before, I looked for her for a long time, a few days ago, I personally caught her back and threw it into the basin.

He is always in love, but he can't plead, but he has the courage to assassinate me, and if he is in love, I will naturally fulfill him, and let him accompany Rushuang in exactly the same way. ”

"He has been loyal to you all these years, and I didn't expect that he would be so confused, but this time you didn't show mercy and spare his life. I remember that he saved your life, too. ”

"Compassion has been sent, otherwise you think that with one such frost, how can you escape from the 'Butterfly Love Flower', and you can hide for so long, and there is no 'Rain Butterfly' for them to find." Gao Qi said while continuing to bandage himself, and then, after tying an ugly bow on his hand, he said:

"Actually~ I originally wanted to let the two of them go, but when Rushuang escaped, I thought I could be safe, but I had the courage to leak the two of us outside, and advertised that the one with the highest price would get it, he~ I just killed myself."

"I've come to two jars of good wine, how about it, are you interested, accompany me to get drunk tonight to relieve a thousand sorrows~"

"Why, it's Lanling wine, if not, I won't drink it, if it is, I won't drink it either." Xie Ruqing casually poured himself a cup of tea and said lightly.

Gao Qi smiled awkwardly and said:

"You can't blame me for this, I didn't expect that this kid would spend a lot of money on me, besides, more than half of the money I earned has also gone into your pocket, and your son's little money, the front foot just went out of your pocket, and the back foot went back from your pocket."

"You didn't expect that? Could it be that my son is blind, his own cousin will not recognize him, you are just betting on whether my son is cold and cold. ”

"He called you godfather, but you calculated him."

"Hey~ That's not to say that, I'm still very good to this kid Hao'an, at least, if one day, this kid hurts me, I will definitely not take revenge on him."

"You bought Murong Shu back, you could have told me directly, I just paid for it and took it away, why did you want her to be the Oiran of the 'Butterfly Love Flower'." Xie Ruqing asked.

When Gao Qi heard this, he couldn't help but laugh a few times sarcastically, and then, he opened a secret compartment from his side, took out a bottle of daughter red, drank it directly to his mouth, drank two sips, and handed the wine to Xie Ruqing, and said in the most lively tone:

"I have said a long time ago, in this world, I don't care about anyone except Gu Gu, I can do without anything.

Money and power are just a means for me to protect Gu Gu well.

Anyone, in my eyes, is at best just a commodity, valuable, use, worthless, I will never keep.

Including you, you and I have known each other for many years, and we can be regarded as best friends, but if it really comes to the point where you and I can only live one, I will kill you mercilessly and let me survive by myself. ”

"She's not Gu Gu, she's just Gu Gu's niece, I don't even care about Gu Gu's parents, I can use it, not to mention, a niece ......" After speaking, Gao Qi took another sip of his daughter's red, and two blushes appeared visibly on his face.

"But Gu Gu cares about this niece very much." Xie Ruqing said.

"I know, so that day, I saved her, isn't it enough, I will say again, she is not Gu Gu, I am good to your son, and it is only because he has half of Gu Gu's blood in his body." Gao Qi drank the last sip of his daughter's red, sat on the couch wantonly, and said.

"Xie Ruqing, let me tell you, in fact, I once wanted to kill you, back then, if it weren't for you, I grew up with Gu Gu's childhood sweetheart, Gu Gu's husband should have been me, and Gu Gu should have had children with me."

"Gu Gu won't marry you, she doesn't like you."

"Hey~ yes, if it weren't for the sake of fulfilling Gu Gu, you thought you would have lived to this day.

However, Gu Gu's vision is good, you are indeed talented, when I robbed the rich and helped the poor, I lost you and gave me advice, and later, the establishment of Yudie, without you, I estimated that I would not be able to succeed so quickly. ”

Xie Ruqing stood up, took out another jar of daughter red from the dark compartment, and listened to Gao Qi quietly while drinking, and only after Gao Qi finished speaking, Xie Ruqing said: "You can succeed so quickly without me, you are a hero, and so am I, but you have no taboos, and you will inevitably get into trouble." ”

"Xiaoxiong, this word is not bad, I am not an official, naturally don't wear any hypocritical masks, whoever stands in my way, kill it, where is like you, take one step and see a hundred steps."

"The wine is good, drink more, this is Murong Shu's deed, I haven't registered the deed of citizenship for her, only this one, now that it's ruined, she can continue to live innocently."

Here, I'll find another stand-in, anyway, except for your family, who has seen her true face. ”

Gao Qi looked at Xie Ruqing's appearance, finally got up, patted the non-existent ash on his body, and then, from the bookshelf behind the screen, took out a book, took a piece of yellow plain paper inside under the candlestick, and lit it.

"I'm here for you, and there's one more thing." Xie Ruqing looked at the deed of sale that turned into ashes for a moment, and then looked away from Gao Qi's red and green pupils and said.

"What's the matter, tell me."

"It seems that you really don't know, Gu Gu is not sick this year, I suspect that someone has poisoned him."

As soon as these words came out, Gao Qi immediately frowned, clenched his fists, and said coldly:

"Do you know who did it, I'm going to kill him."

"I don't know yet, but now I only found out, this incident may be related to the frost of your 'butterfly love flower'."

She ...... Scold...... I underestimated her, but I didn't expect her to do this. ”

"You've already killed someone, I don't think we can ask anything, you take the servant girl next to her and interrogate her well, she may know something."

"Heh, this is natural, but do you think that if she dies, I can let her go, I won't let her go, she is dead, she still has her mother, and her brothers and sisters, why don't you all use them to make amends~ Come to think of it, the peony in spring can also look better~" Gao Qi said with a smile.

"The child is innocent, you don't have to kill them all, if you really want to wish her the nine clans, you ...... It's her blood father, and it's counted, so it's hard that you can kill yourself. ”

"Years ago, I told you that these children, what the future holds, has nothing to do with me.

I don't need these children, these children are not born in my expectation, and the women of them think that by giving birth to my children, they will be able to restrain me and marry me.

It's just wishful thinking, the life and death of those children have nothing to do with me, only Gu Gu, I care. ”

After speaking, Gao Qi took a dagger from the wall, looked at it for a moment, and said, "It's so sharp." ”

Immediately, he stabbed the dagger into his shoulder, and blood immediately gushed out from Gao Qi's shoulder, and a lot of sweat beads gushed out of Gao Qi's forehead at this moment, and his lips began to tremble, but Gao Qi still smiled and said to Xie Ruqing:

"This knife is regarded as me making amends to Gu Gu, and in the future, when I catch the person who harmed Gu Gu, I will personally go to Gu Gu to make amends."

Xie Ruqing was surprised by Gao Qi's paranoia and infatuation, and then said: "You better stop the bleeding first, live well, take care of it, you have to protect it together." ”

"The maid's matter will be handed over to you, if something comes out, remember to tell me, this matter should be done by the Xie family, but...... I don't know who it is, but after I found out...... You'll have to cooperate with me to get rid of that man. ”

"Remember to deal with your pot, I guess I have to throw a lot of people into this matter."

"Heh, you are really ruthless, what I killed was just an emotionless daughter, and what you want to kill is the family who has been with you for so many years."

"What...... Everyone has to pay for their decisions. ”
