Chapter 54: The Gift
Because of the rumors of flower thieves in the past few days, Liangzhou City has made people panic, and Bai Yuhan can't sleep because of the rumors of flower thieves.
And this night, the night seemed to get dark quickly, Bai Yuhan was lying on the bed, and Shao Yifei was hiding aside. He has been by Bai Yuhan's side for two nights, but there is still no movement, and in the past two days, women have disappeared in Liangzhou City one after another.
Shao Yifei sat in a place where others were not easily aware of the sword, and several hours had passed, and there was still no movement. Just when he thought the flower thief wouldn't show up and took a nap.
Suddenly, the candlelight shook a few times, followed by the sound of the window opening, Bai Yuhan also noticed that someone broke through the window, but he tiptoed, but Bai Yuhan saw him carrying a sword, she didn't dare to shout loudly, so she had to pull the quilt up, and one of her hearts was in her throat. She also pinned her hopes on Shao Yifei.
Just when the man was about to stretch out his poisonous hand to Bai Yuhan, Shao Yifei suddenly pulled out his sword and slashed at him, "Mao thief, look at the move!" Shao Yifei's sonorous voice startled him, so he stopped moving his hands and feet to Bai Yuhan, and actually went down from the window like this.
How could Shao Yifei spare him, he must have caught this thief tonight to solve the case, the thief seemed to expect Shao Yifei to follow, but deliberately turned a corner, but he didn't expect that when Shao Yifei was chasing after him, the thief actually sprinkled a handful of white powder, and in a daze, the man was gone.
Shao Yifei tried his best to dispel the powder, but the man was long gone.
And at this moment, suddenly there was some sensation in Liangzhou City, followed by countless torches lighting up the night sky.
"Caught thief, caught thief!" Many people shouted, Shao Yifei thought that the thief had been caught, and ran to the crowd to see it with some joy, but unexpectedly, the man who the swords and arrows were facing was not Ning Xiangyu, who else would it be? And at this moment, he saw that everyone was unanimously identifying him as a thief, and he was miserable, but how to explain the night clothes on his body?
"It's not me! It's really not me!" Ning Xiangyu said bitterly.
"Just now these two women accused you of insulting them, how do you explain? And how do you explain your night suit? The county magistrate stood aside and pressed him to question.
Originally, he slept well, but suddenly the sound of drumming outside disturbed his dream, and it turned out that two women who had been insulted insisted on saying that they had met a flower thief, and said a handful of snot and tears. The county magistrate had to get up in the middle of the night to try the case.
And the old bustard Yanniang was also crowded in the crowd, and yelled at Ning Xiangyu: "I'll just say, the back was you last time, and you have to deny it." You say, where did you hide my Cher? ”
"I'm not a flower thief, I didn't insult them, I was wronged." Ning Xiangyu complained bitterly.
"I believe that Brother Ning is not a flower thief, because he doesn't know martial arts at all, think about it, what happened just now?" Shao Yifei stood in the crowd and stood up for him.
Speaking of what happened just now, Ning Xiangyu was really ashamed, and even difficult to speak, originally he went to the Qinglou to drink flower wine, but unexpectedly saw Ah Jun, he couldn't imagine that such an honest person would come to this place, and what he said was particularly turbid, Ning Xiangyu thought in his heart, how could Jin Niang fall in love with such a person, and marry him soon.
Originally, I didn't want to pay attention to him, but I didn't expect that person to mention Jin Niang with another person, and the words he said were all meat, and his words were completely different from his usual honest appearance.
Ning Xiangyu couldn't listen to it anymore, but he didn't expect that this Ah Jun turned out to be a human-faced beast.
Ning Xiangyu then rushed over and scolded him: "I can't see it, you are really a dog bastard with a beast's heart, I must tell Jin Niang to keep her away from you~"
"What's the use of what you're saying? Jinniang is my woman, and she will marry me tomorrow. We are in love, what does it matter to you and outsiders? ”
"Huh! Hit it off? Ning Xiangyu sneered: "Even people like you deserve to intercede, you are a dog mongrel!"
He was about to hit him, but Ah Jun just smiled like that, and his smile made Ning Xiangyu shudder.
But Ah Jun's friend offered a glass of wine, stopped the two, and said to Ning Xiangyu, "Dissipate your anger."
Ning Xiangyu raised his head and drank, too angry in his heart. Later, he simply drank into the flask again.
"That's a lot of alcohol!" The two clapped their hands repeatedly.
As soon as the wine came up, Ning Xiangyu felt a sadness in his heart for no reason, he thought of the past years, and suddenly thought of Jin Niang, Jin Niang opened the store this time, is it to take revenge on himself? Is she going to marry Ah Jun, a guy with a human face and a beast's heart, to take revenge on herself?
When he saw Ah Jun's face, as if he was laughing at himself for giving up Jin Niang in the past, Ning Xiangyu clenched his fist and smashed a punch at Ah Jun, and he didn't forget to say: "You have to be good to Jin Niang, otherwise I won't let you go."
Ning Xiangyu staggered out like this, why did he want to drink water like that? Why is it so hot all over my body? He had unwarranted desires, but his consciousness could not control his body.
"Ah~ indecent!" He heard the woman shout, and his own hand couldn't help but reach for the clothes of the two men. And his own clothes were taken off by himself.
Rogue! Those two women slapped themselves! Ning Xiangyu just felt that his face was very painful, but his whole body was hot and hot, his mouth was dry, "water~water~"
And then there was really cold cold water poured all over his body, he was groggy, and then he didn't know what was happening, and when he woke up, he found himself in the crowd, being fingered, and he was also changed into a night suit.
"There's something wrong with that wine!" Ning Xiangyu told him about meeting Ah Jun when he visited the Qinglou. And suddenly realized that there must be something wrong with this wine.
"You don't want to spew blood!" Ah Jun also appeared in the crowd, "I've been staying with Jin Niang!" You slander me!"
Seeing Ah Jun's honest and innocent appearance, Ning Xiangyu was a little disgusted: "Don't you pretend?" You're a two-faced person! You're a guy who likes to drink flower wine! I'm sure I see you! Jin Niang, tell me if Ah Jun didn't come back. ”
Jin Niang was also in the crowd, seeing that Ning Xiangyu was arrested, she had a sense of revenge, she naturally would not stand on the same line as Ning Xiangyu, and Shao Yifei also realized that this might be a trap.
Jin Niang said coldly: "Ah Jun has always been with me, don't hide the fact that you are not a flower thief, county order, what are you waiting for?" Don't arrest him yet!"
So a group of people restrained Ning Xiangyu. Ning Xiangyu felt that Jin Niang was a little chilly to herself like this.
And the old bustard stepped forward and said to the county order: "Ning Xiangyu is clearly lying, and he didn't see Ah Jun in the Qinglou, he just doesn't admit the fact that he is a flower thief, so he will do a lot of evil in the future, and since he is a flower thief, there must be accomplices!" I think he deserves to be arrested as well. The man actually pointed at Shao Yifei.
Shao Yifei laughed arrogantly: "Joke! My dignified General Shao Yifei was mistaken for a flower thief, which shows how ignorant you are! ”
"Shao Yifei!" Everyone began to look at each other, but the general's name has only been popular for a while, but it has not become popular in recent years.
"Who is General Shao Yifei? I have only heard of General Li as the Great General and General Wei Chao. Some people even said that they hadn't heard of it, which made Shao Yifei feel a little embarrassed.
And the county order ordered a few big men to clamp Shao Yifei down, how could Shao Yifei be so easy to be caught, he clenched his fists, and with just one hand, he beat these big men until he vomited blood.
"You're going to arrest me, and see what you're capable of." Shao Yifei's gaze became bloodthirsty, and the sword he was holding in his hand was as cold as ice in the moonlight, forcing everyone to back down, but Shao Yifei suddenly forced his eyes on the old bustard, put the sword against her neck, and said in an eerie and terrifying tone: "I don't know if someone instructed you!" In short, you are not telling the truth! Fast! Tell the truth!"
The old bustard was so frightened that she was about to go limp, she trembled, her lips and teeth trembled, but she trembled and said, "I don't dare...... Don't dare ......"
At this moment, Bai Yuhan suddenly appeared in front of everyone, and when she saw Shao Yifei holding this person hostage, she was afraid that a tragedy would happen, so she shouted: "Stop!"
And at this moment, she came in a hurry, she had something to say, it turned out that under the county order, there was a group of people with torches and said that they would burn Ning Xiangyu's shop, unless he was punished.
And the catcher held Bai Yuhan hostage, and said a cruel word to Shao Yifei and Ning Xiangyu: "If you resist stubbornly, don't blame me for burning Ning Xiangyu's shop."
"No, no." Ning Xiangyu begged for mercy on the ground, so he begged Shao Yifei to let go of the sword, Shao Yifei saw that they made such a ruthless move, so naturally it was not interesting to confront them, he let go of the bustard, and sneered: "Hmph, what a faint official!" But for Brother Ning's sake, I will accompany him to the yamen, however, justice is in the hearts of the people, if we are not guilty, will we be released. ”
"That's nature." The prefectural commander smiled.
And Shao Yifei glanced at Bai Yuhan, and saw that Bai Yuhan's eyes were filled with tears, and he was a little reluctant, so he said to the catcher: "You have to protect her these days, and when I am released, I will definitely reward you well."
So the county magistrate ordered Na Catch to do so.
And tomorrow is the wedding day of Jin Niang, and Jin Niang naturally said in the crowd: "Tomorrow I will get married, you have to attend my wedding."
"Definitely, definitely." Everyone said. Among them, there are some young and beautiful girls, who think that the flower thief has been caught, so they must have breathed a sigh of relief these days, and naturally they are in a good mood when they answer.
Jin Niang smiled at everyone, turned around and was about to leave, but Ning Xiangyu stopped her: "Wait."
Jin Niang's pace slowed down, and Ning Xiangyu said with some sadness behind him: "This is your lifelong event, you have to think about it clearly, is he a reliable person or a well-dressed beast?"
When Jin Niang heard his tone, she became angry for no reason, isn't it all because of him? He's embarrassed to say it! She turned around suddenly, she gritted her teeth and stared at Ning Xiangyu viciously, but her hand suddenly picked up Ning Xiangyu's collar, and her voice was angry: "You take care of yourself!" Even if I marry a well-dressed beast, it's none of your business, it's enough that he's the one I love! You might as well enjoy your prison life!"
When Jin Niang said this, Ning Xiangyu was heartbroken, maybe it was about to be separated, Ning Xiangyu was attached to Jin Niang's face for no reason, he actually used his hand to touch Jin Niang's face, and looked at it from a distance, but found that Jin Niang's face was thinner, and it was much haggard. She wasn't like that when she followed herself, she didn't do that.
Ning Xiangyu said pityingly: "Jin Niang, have you lost weight?"
"Let go of your dirty hands!" Jin Niang shook his hand away and sneered: "Sure enough, dogs can't change eating, your lustful nature has never changed, and you were sent to prison because of lust, you really deserve it!" Well deserved!" The people on the side also accused Ning Xiangyu one after another.
Some people even ridiculed directly: "What a fool! How could his father have given birth to a man like him! "Some people even threw things at him.
At that moment, Ning Xiangyu's self-esteem and self-confidence were ruthlessly trampled on, and in the past few days, he was exhausted, and his business was also robbed by Jinniang, he has always been a person with strong self-esteem, and at this moment he is like a clown in front of others, he is in pain!
Jin Niang saw his sad mood, but with contempt and ridicule in her eyes, she said in a very sarcastic tone: "What's wrong? What do you look like on a day-to-day basis? Why is it gone? Is it that you can't hold your face when you are abused and ridiculed by others on the street? I'm telling you! The pain you inflict on me is a thousandfold, ten thousand! You don't feel as much pain as I do! You're laughing! Why don't you laugh anymore? ”
"Jin Niang~" Ning Xiangyu suddenly felt a trace of pity and sadness when he looked at Jin Niang's eyes, he would not apologize to others on weekdays, even if he was wrong, he would not apologize, but this time, he put down his noble dignity and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry~"
Jin Niang laughed maniacally, with a crazy attitude: "Hahaha, you tell me I'm sorry!" Do you think a word of sorry is useful? Ning Xiangyu! You will never pay me back! Bai Yuhan saw Jin Niang's attitude, and inexplicably felt a little distressed, and when the wind blew Jin Niang's cuffs, she faintly saw the scars on her body!
Jin Niang hates him so much, there must be a story behind her!
But Ah Jun came up and kicked him to the ground.
Shao Yifei hurriedly came up to help.
And Ning Xiangyu has never been so heartbreaking for a day. He's always been a face-saving man, and tonight, it doesn't seem to be worth much. And his heart was like a knife, and he couldn't help it, and Ah Jun was kicking him in the heart.
He spat out a mouthful of blood. Fainted.
"Someone! Take them down!" The prefectural order ordered.
After that, the county commander and his party took them down. And the crowd dispersed.
