Volume 1 The Heaven in the Pot Chapter 25 Confrontation
The woman is wearing a moon-white sleeve shirt, holding a yaoqin, like a fairy in the sky, so beautiful that she is thrilling.
When the girl saw a strange man standing in the courtyard of her house, she was so frightened that she was about to cry out.
"There are changes in Youzhou, and the family is in trouble! Girl, save me! ”
The woman's lips moved, but she didn't make a sound, and when she saw that the man fainted on the ground after speaking, the woman was shocked, she hurriedly put down the yaoqin in her hand and came to Shen Ye's side, seeing that Shen Ye just fainted, the woman breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked at Shen Ye's handsome appearance, and saw that he was wearing two family waist cards around his waist, one for the Shen family and one for the Baijia, knowing that his identity was not simple, thinking about his words just now, the woman's eyebrows furrowed slightly, knowing that something big had happened in Youzhou City, she turned her head and whispered to the house: "Yan Ru? "The voice was like a heavenly sound, soft and pleasant.
A fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl walked out of the house, dressed up as a maid, and the girl said as she walked: "Miss, don't worry, the tea will be brewed in a while, this is?" ”
Yan Ru saw a man lying next to her young lady, and was stunned.
The woman said to Yan Ru, who was there, "Let's carry him into my room." ”
Yan Ru ate and said, "Miss, this, this, it's not in accordance with the rules." ”
At this time, there was a sound of slamming the door from the courtyard next door, and the woman knew that it must be related to this son, she said anxiously: "This son is very important, we can't let him be caught by people outside, hurry up and help me." ”
Yan Ru also heard the voice next to her, and then looked at the unconscious man and the slightly nervous young lady, although she didn't understand what was going on, but she also knew that the situation was urgent, she didn't ask any more questions, and carried Shen Ye to the young lady's boudoir with the young lady.
The two put Shen Ye on the bed, the woman wiped the sweat on her forehead, and instructed Yan Ru: "I'll explain to you later, when someone comes to ask later, don't be nervous, don't let people see the flaws." ”
Yan Ru hurriedly said: "But what if they break in?" ”
The woman raised her eyebrows: "The state government and the generals have always been respectful to our family, and they will never let those men break into the women's boudoir, let's go back to the courtyard." ”
The two closed the door and returned to the courtyard.
The woman sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, put the Yaoqin in front of her, she raised her wrist slightly, plucked softly, and the sound of the piano sounded.
......
Qiao Zheng next door was pushing the son of the Liu family in front of him, and when he heard the sound of the piano next door, he couldn't help frowning.
At this time, several sergeants came out of the house and replied, "General, there is no trace of the thief. ”
The prince of the Liu family said angrily: "I want to sue the state government and the generals, and severely punish you and others!" ”
Qiao Zheng nodded, and instructed his subordinates: "You are here to prevent the thief from returning, you two go around, pass on my orders, and bring another group of people over, we will speed up." Qiao Zheng knew that he couldn't cause a riot now, and he had to kill that person as soon as possible.
After a group of people left, the son of the Liu family looked at Qiao Zheng's back and cursed, suddenly thinking that the next target of these people was not Sister Qingyao next to him? The son of the Liu family moved in his heart and hurriedly ran out.
......
The irritable shouts and the sound of slamming the door suddenly came to mind, and the sound of the piano in the courtyard stopped abruptly.
Yan Ru opened the courtyard door, she was about to get angry, but when she saw the young man with blood on his face and fierce eyes, she couldn't help screaming in fright.
Qiao Zheng pushed Yan Ru away, and rushed inside with the sergeant without saying a word.
Seeing this, Liu Qingyao's apricot eyes widened, and she got up and scolded: "What are you doing? ”
As he spoke, Yan Ru also chased to the door of the room, and with one arm, he stopped the sergeant who wanted to rush in.
Seeing that it was a woman blocking them, the sergeants hesitated for a moment and turned their heads to look at Qiao Zheng.
Qiao Zheng endured the restlessness in his heart and explained: "There is a villain who assassinated Lord Lang of the Ministry of Rites, and now he has fled here, and we are ordered to search and arrest him. ”
When Liu Qingyao heard this, her hands holding Yaoqin tightened slightly.
And Yan Ru, who was stopped at the door, was even more shocked when she heard it, and subconsciously looked into the house.
Seeing this, Qiao Zheng was suspicious in his heart, and said tentatively: "That person is extremely ruthless, slashing and killing many people all the way, and not a single one is left alive. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Ru's face turned pale with horror.
Qiao Zheng was overjoyed when he saw this, this person must be in the house!
He sneered, "Search for me!" ”
"Who dares?!"
A loud voice came from behind Qiao Zheng, and I saw a middle-aged man with a white face and a slight beard appear at the gate of the courtyard with a few people, and the son of the Liu family, who was searched by Qiao Zheng just now, was also among them.
The son of the Liu family saw that Qiao Zheng really broke into Liu Qingyao's courtyard, and said angrily: "Uncle, it's him, he broke into my room just now, and now he has to break into my sister's boudoir!" ”
The middle-aged man walked into the courtyard and came to Qiao Zheng's approach, not angry and arrogant, and said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, in broad daylight, Lang Lang Qiankun, you lead someone to break into my Liu family's house, you must give my Liu family an explanation, otherwise this matter will not be over!" ”
Qiao Zheng expected that the person was trapped in the house, and he was not in a hurry at this time, he looked at the head of the Liu family, and said slowly: "The waiter of the Ministry of Rites was just assassinated in the lobby, I chased the murderer all the way here, and I saw him flee to the nearby courtyard with my own eyes, for the safety of the Liu family, I made this decision, I hope you will forgive me." ”
"Lord Yu's assassination?" The head of the Liu family lost his voice.
"That murderer was extremely cruel, and he actually cut off Lord Yu's head."
Qiao Zheng looked at Yan Ru's expression again, and sure enough, her body began to tremble, and the corners of Qiao Zheng's mouth turned up slightly: "I suspect that he is in this room!" ”
Later, several members of the Liu family were shocked, and they all looked at Liu Qingyao's house.
Seeing this, Liu Qingyao knew that something was wrong, and when she walked in front of everyone, the beautiful woman bit her lips lightly: "Father, this little general, you are too worried, the little girl has just come out of the house, and there is no one else in this house." ”
"If there is no one else, why is your maid's face so flustered." Qiao Zheng sneered.
Several people in the courtyard looked at Yan Ru, and Yan Ru was even more busy: "I...... I ......" Yan Ru was so anxious that she couldn't speak.
At this moment, the head of the Liu family also began to be suspicious, and he said solemnly: "Qing Yao, let them check, if the assassin is really hiding in the house, your lives are in danger." ”
Liu Qingyao was anxious, but Shen Ye's words before she fainted couldn't be said in this person's eyes, and she didn't know what to do for a while.
Seeing that the head of the Liu family agreed, Qiao Zheng smiled slightly, and when he looked into the house again, a murderous aura suddenly appeared in his eyes, and with his order, the subordinates beside him pulled out their long knives one after another and slowly forced towards the house.
It was too late, it was too fast, and a copper stick suddenly flew from outside the courtyard and went straight to Qiao Zheng's back!
Qiao Zheng was extremely alert, and the moment he heard the sound of sharp roar rushing towards him, he quickly snatched the scabbard of the person next to him, turned around and blocked it hard.
"Bell!"
Qiao Zheng's mouth was shocked, his chest was full of blood and qi, and the scabbard flew out of his hand.
Qiao Zheng was horrified in his heart, and fell on his back, avoiding the trajectory of the copper stick, the copper stick was broken by the scabbard, spun and flew into the air in a different direction, and when he landed, a person next to him stretched out a hand to hold the copper stick firmly and inserted it on the ground.
"Mr. Three!"
Liu Qingyao finally waited for the person she was waiting for, and her whole body relaxed.
The person who came was dressed in a light robe, his face was like a crown of jade, and his aura was lofty, if it weren't for the short beard under his chin and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes that showed that this person was middle-aged, and people who didn't know would think that he was a noble son of a family in his twenties.
This person's surname is Song Mingcheng, from the Luzhou Song family of the Eight Great Families, the third in the family, and the person in charge of the Song family of the Youzhou Cultural Association.
This Song Cheng usually in addition to dancing knives and guns, but he is famous for liking music, but he himself is not good at it, so he has to listen to others play for himself, when he was in Luzhou, he heard that Miss Liu played a good piano, he went to visit every once in a while, Miss Liu was elegant, docile and peaceful, and did not resist communicating with him. During this period, Song Cheng also taught Liu Qingyao some simple self-defense techniques, and after a long time, the two became friends for a long time, Song Cheng called Liu Qingyao a little friend, and Liu Qingyao called Mr. Song Chengsan.
Song Cheng held the copper stick in his hand, first nodded at the head of the Liu family, and then asked Liu Qingyao softly about what happened.
At this time, Qiao Zheng's cold voice came: "You openly attacked the officers and soldiers, are you going to rebel?" ”
Song Cheng raised his eyebrows and said: "I only saw someone holding a knife, coercing my little friend, throwing sticks to help, how can I say that I rebelled?" ”
Qiao Zheng said angrily: "Even if you are clever and skillful, it is a fact to attack the officers and soldiers, come on, take it for me!"
"Wait!"
Song Cheng interrupted: "You said that you are an officer and soldier, and you said that you carried out the order of General Zhao, so tell your rank and take out the warrant of General Zhao!" ”
"You!"
Qiao Zheng was furious in his heart, this incident was beyond everyone's expectations, Qiao Zheng didn't expect Shen Ye to slip away from his hands, and Meng Feng didn't prepare a reasonable identity for him at all, let alone General Zhao's warrant.
Seeing this, Song Cheng was relieved, and his tone was not good: "I knew that General Zhao would not give an order to break into the house, I think you and the others are pretending to be from the official mansion!" ”
As soon as these words came out, all the sergeants, including Qiao Zheng, were shocked, and everyone looked at each other.
Qiao Zheng held back his anger and said: "The matter is in a hurry, in the future, Zhao Shen will explain to you and others, I have to enter this house today." ”
"Who dares?!"
Song Cheng danced a copper stick in front of the house: "Who dares to pass my level first!" ”
Qiao Zheng was furious, picked up the long knife next to him and was about to step forward.
"Stop!"
At this time, the mutation was reborn, and the person who came was Meng Feng, who was followed by the Baizihuan brothers and sisters and dozens of sergeants.
Originally, Meng Feng and Bai Zihuan were looking for his so-called kidnapped brother, and suddenly saw that the sergeants around him suddenly mobilized, Meng Feng went to ask, and couldn't help but change color, he threw down Bai Zihuan and a few people and hurried to this side, Bai Zihuan and a few people were curious when they saw this, so they also followed.
Meng Feng's angular face was covered with sweat, but he didn't know whether he was anxious or frightened, Meng Feng first arched his hand to the head of the Liu family and Song Cheng, and then walked to Qiao Zheng's side and asked in a low voice: "Long story short, what's going on?" ”
Qiao Zheng said calmly: "Yuyao was killed by me, the people in this house saw the whole process, and they also saw their father-in-law, so they can't stay!" ”
Meng Feng set off monstrous waves in his heart, he was not there for a while, how could such a big thing happen! Indeed, no one in this house can be kept!
Qiao Zheng said to Song Cheng: "Lord Zhou is here, do you still want to shield the murderer who assassinated Lord Yu?!" ”
Qiao Zheng woke up the dreamer with a word, and Meng Feng immediately knew how to deal with this matter.
Meng Feng walked up to Qiao Zheng and said sincerely to Song Cheng: "Qiao Zheng is a cronie of my clan, he said that he saw the assassin enter this house with his own eyes, it should be true, Song Cheng, you let it go, if the assassin is inside, we will capture him and avenge Lord Yu, and I can also give an explanation to the imperial court." If not, I will personally come to your place and make amends for your sins. ”
