Dong Mingsheng reached out and untied the letter tube on the eagle's leg, took out the letter from the tube, and carefully unfolded it. There was only one sentence on the letter, the father-in-law was relieved, and the son-in-law had sent someone to pick it up.

The eagle swallows a long strip of meat and pecks again. Dong Mingsheng rubbed the word father-in-law on the letter with his fingertips, his tightly knit brows slowly relaxed, and before he could fully stretch, he saw that the eagle eating meat suddenly stopped devouring his eyes and looked sharply to the southeast, and he looked along.

A black shadow flew through the water. Recognizing the person, Dong Mingsheng withdrew his eyes and said to the eagle in a gentle tone: "It's okay, it's your own, you continue to eat." ”

The black shadow went up to the island in the middle of the lake, walked quickly to the stone house, stood two steps away from Dong Mingsheng, took out a letter from his arms, and sent it forward with both hands: "Old man, Yijian Villa is for you." ”

The old eyes shrank slightly, and the ominous feeling in Dong Mingsheng's heart reached its peak in an instant, his eyes fell on the letter, and he asked in a deep voice: "What about the person who sent the letter?" ”

"Already gone." The man in black lowered his eyes.

If you don't believe it, even a small breeze can blow. Dong Mingsheng put the note he was holding into his palm, and put his hand behind his back: "Open it." ”

"Yes." Without hesitation, the man in black tore open the seal and took out the letter inside.

Dong Mingsheng instructed again: "Unfold and take a look." ”

The man in black placed the envelope on the stone table and unfolded the letter, which contained two letters. On the first one, there is a diagram of the remnants of the game. The second sheet reads, thank you Mr. Dong for taking such care of me Yijian Villa, I Yijian Villa must be cherished.

Got it? Dong Mingsheng swallowed, looking at the remnant chess diagram, his mind was a little confused. Five years have passed, and to be honest, he does not regret calculating Yijian Villa, but he regrets hiding his calculation in the remnant chess game and sending it to Changshan. This is arrogant. Looking back now, he only feels that he was like a hairy boy who didn't know the height of the sky.

The black-clothed man's fingertips were hot, his heart tightened, and he immediately threw the paper in his hand aside. Dong Mingsheng retreated, looking at the two pieces of paper that were falling, and his nose was itchy. The paper hit the ground, smoked and spontaneously combusted, and the smell diffused.

"Hold your breath." The man in black covered his nose with his arms and grabbed the old gentleman to dodge and get the upper hand. At the same time, the eagle spread its wings and left the table, and the envelope on the table was flown away by the eagle.

The heat flowed down from his nose, and Dong Ming panicked. The envelope that fell to the ground did not spontaneously combust, and he turned his eyes to look at his subordinate's hand.

The black-clad man's fingers were black, and he had two frightening tubes of scarlet under his nose.

One Sword Villa actually used poison? Dong Mingsheng didn't care about the strange fragrance that still lingered on his nose, stumbled and ran to the kitchen stove, reached out to the small hole where the flint was placed, and picked out an ash ball for a while.

Outside the house, the man in black fell limply to the ground, curled up and twitching.

The nosebleed into his mouth, Dong Mingsheng pinched it hard, and the ash balls shattered. He took the medicine that was sealed inside, stripped off the coat, stuffed it directly into his mouth, chewed it twice, and swallowed it. The pill was so big that he choked and rolled his eyes.

The ferocious eagle screamed and flapped its wings in the air, but flew lower and lower. A feather fell off, and it finally remained in this broken lake.

Dong Mingsheng, who was behind the stove, was relieved until his nose stopped bleeding, and fell backwards and lay on the firewood and grass. His eyes were quiet and silent for a moment, he pulled his lips and sneered, and slowly closed his eyes. People really can't be arrogant and arrogant.

Today, the wind entered the city with a smile, and came back after dark. Xin Shansi just wanted to ask Yijielou if he could help deliver the letter, but saw him take out a thin bamboo tube.

"What is this?"

"Bashan, who was next to King Chengnan, went to the Xianyu bookstore in the morning, and I didn't bump into it. When I went out of the city, he was one step behind me. It just so happened that I told Xin Yue'er about embarrassing your grandfather's family, and after hearing this, he asked me to hand over this bamboo tube to you. ”

With a move in her heart, Xin Shansi took the thin bamboo tube and shook it, there was something in the tube.

Feng Xiao poured a cup of tea for himself: "I've seen it, this small bamboo tube should be a special letterbox, nothing weird." ”

Pulling the stopper open, Xin Shansi poured out the letter inside and unfolded it to see the words: "Datai will return to Montu with his daughter on the ninth day of October." ”

Feng Xiao paused: "You want to..."

"Kill him." Xin Shansi clumped the note into a ball, twisted it between her fingers a little harder, and the dust fell.

Feng Xiao blinked and swallowed a mouthful of water: "I'll enter the city tomorrow and find you a weapon to take advantage of." "Wei Fang's sword, which was taken away by Mrs. Su, will be returned, but she didn't say when. To kill Datai, Little Lady Yan can't hold her little harpoon.

"No, you don't." Xin Shansi looked at the bamboo tube: "Isn't my little harpoon still there?" ”

In the air, Feng laughed and laughed: "There are many people who have died under the little harpoon," he should not feel that the little harpoon is cold.

On the fifth day of October, Cui Shi, the shopkeeper of Cui Ji Changsheng Store on Lanfeng Street in the south of Lingzhou City, waited for noon, but did not see food delivered by his family. After sitting for a while, he got up and collected the silver in the cupboard, called two men, and one of them gave five taels of silver.

"You're not going to use it anymore."

"Why?" The two men were holding the silver and did not understand what was happening.

Cui Shi didn't want to say more, let them hurry up and leave, he wanted to close the shop. Seeing the shopkeeper like this, the man couldn't give up, so he had to go to the backyard to clean up the bed.

After closing the shop, Cui Shi had already walked to his home in the west of the city with heavy but firm steps, and his eyes were moist. The Cui family owes a sum of... Debts that are difficult to pay. For 20 years, as Cui Rong's youngest son, he didn't dare to marry or have children, and he had been waiting for the creditor to come to the door.

He was a coward, and several times he stepped out to confess everything to Li Shang and beg for atonement, but each time he couldn't reach the city gate and turned back.

Over the years, he has seen his mother cry often because of his father's disappearance, and he felt very disgusted. Others may not know, but he knows that his father will go that way because he was forced by his mother. Mother doesn't like paper shops, she wants to wear gold and silver with her head full of pearls.

She is living the life she wants, why is she crying? After crying for a year or two, the people of Manling Prefecture knew that she loved her husband very much. Dr. Yang Baizhuo Yang of the Yang'an Medical Center in the west of the city gave her a seventeen or eighteen years of illness. She is always not good when she is frail and sick, and every three or five days, she has to ask someone to ask Dr. Yang to come back. Every time Dr. Yang came back, he had to stay in her house for a long time.

She is 50 or 6 this year, and Cui Shi is already ashamed of her, wishing that she would die soon.

In the main courtyard of the Cui family in the west of the city, Li Shang had his back to a woman sitting on the ground and wearing a thin veil. There were four pots of charcoal in the room, and they were so warm that they were sweating on their foreheads as they sat at the table drinking tea.

The burly Mongolian man lifted the boxes out of the storehouse and placed them in the courtyard. The ruler sword was unboxed and checked, compared with the Song and He families, the Cui family's family background was obviously thinner. However, Mrs. Cui's private room is really a lot, and the bits and pieces add up to more than 20,000 gold, so it's no wonder that Yang Baizhuo is willing to coax her.

Cui Shi had already arrived at home, and when he saw that the concierge was a raw face, he didn't care, and went into the house to go to the main courtyard as usual. The road was quiet, and he didn't meet a single housekeeper, and he was followed by a Mongolian man. The Meng man held the handle of the scimitar in his hand and stared without blinking.

When he was about to arrive at the main courtyard, he ran into a group of Mongolian people carrying boxes, and said with a slight smile: "The deed books for the shop at home are all here, and I will get them for you later." ”

Cheng Yuliang, who followed the Mongolian people, knew this Cui Sanye: "You can not come back." ”

Cui Shi was already stunned, and smiled bitterly: "I want to see Li Shang." When he arrived, he had to be brave and tell him what he should confess.

Chapter 102

This one has a bit of a conscience. Cheng Yuliang did not obstruct him, but walked in front of him and went to the main courtyard with him.

After entering the main courtyard, Cui Shi had already seen the cages in the courtyard, and his expression remained unchanged, these were not their family in the first place. The Cui family has been occupying it for 20 years, and it should be returned to others with interest.

Li Shang walked out of the house, standing under the eaves with his hands behind his back, and he calmly looked at Cui Shiji, who was standing half a foot away.

When he finally saw it, Cui Shi had already looked at Li Shang from head to toe. He was an admirable man, who came from a wealthy background but had a broken family when he was still ignorant, and grew up all the way, and at a young age he spread the hundred herbs to the cities. He is also a ruthless and courageous person, solving the Bai family, and even closing the sixty-three Baicaotang that he has made big.

"On the 17th day of June in the fourth year of Taishun, there was a strong wind and rain on that day. I had nothing to do, so I filled a bladder of warm water, took some pastries and wore a coat to the book in the front yard. There is a resting room in the study room, and there is a kang in the small room. I found a few strange books and read them on the kang in the small room..."Cui Shi has been working on this manuscript in his heart for more than 10 years, and today he finally uses it.

The blindfolded man standing behind Cui Shi did not blink, his hand holding the hilt of the knife, vigilant.

Li Shang didn't have many doubts about the Li family's annihilation, but the fact that he didn't have any questions didn't mean that he didn't want to know more specific details.

"There were strange stories about eating, drinking, and strange stories, the wind and rain outside the window, and the house was quiet and quiet..."Cui Shi already recalled, not to mention how comfortable it was at that time: "I didn't go back to my yard that night, and I stayed up until the end of the day before I reluctantly put down the strange talk and turned off the lights to sleep." At this point, his brows furrowed, "I don't know how long I've been asleep, but I heard it in a daze, it's my father." They were angry at first, but then they got into an argument because of disagreement, and the words were fierce, and I woke up. My mother's impatience was that my father was hesitant and not decisive enough on major matters. The two of them quarreled so much that they blushed and had thick necks, and they didn't notice me. ”

Li Shang smiled in his eyes: "What are they arguing about?" ”

Very nice sound, clean and calm, not much. Cui Shi had already taken a deep breath and replied: "I'm arguing about Yuan Hanshan's proposal." ”

"Yuan Hanshan?" Li Shang's eyes: "The chief treasurer of the Juesha Building, who was on the throne for 18 years, was also the person who inspected the bodies of Cai Jimin, He Jian and 11 others, and Taishun retired in five years. ”

"It's him." Cui Shi has already said: "However, the 'Yuan Hanshan' who retired in the fifth year of Taishun is not him, and he and my father disappeared when they escorted a batch of Li family treasures to the south in early October of the fourth year of Taishun. The one who retired was the stand-in arranged for him by the Absolute Evil Building. ”

The corners of Li's lips were slightly raised, and with the addition of Yuan Hanshan, the identities of the 12 human bones at the bottom of the Yellow River were all clear.

"Is it the Cui family that Yuan Hanshan found?"

"Not bad." Cui Shi exhaled lightly and continued: "However, Yuan Hanshan lobbied with the Qi family, Qi Ningshu and the Absolute Evil Building, and my father had already had contact with Qi Yun, and the relationship was neither deep nor shallow. ”

Li Shang asked: "The Li family has a holiday with your family?" ”

Slightly stunned, Cui Shi already sneered: "It's not a holiday." A caravan of the Li family, while leading horses south to the western suburbs of Lingzhou, crashed into my mother's donkey cart. My mother was not hurt, but she was a little frightened. The caravan began to say that it would pay twenty taels of silver, and that my mother would have to ram the two foals of the donkey cart.

The caravan's compensation was increased to fifty taels, but my mother still disagreed. My father took a few people with him, and when he saw my mother slumped on the ground, he thought she had suffered a serious crime, so he started a fight with the Li caravan.

The caravan of the Li family has nearly 100 guards, and my father is the opponent. My mother is not afraid of big things, and she even asks people to report to the official. The Cui family is a little famous in this area, but what kind of family is the Li family, if they dare to run business, they must have opened up the official offices in various places.

When I arrived at the official office, the steward of the Li family's caravan wanted to send someone to ask a doctor to give my mother a consultation, but my father agreed that my mother would live or die.

This discerning person can see at a glance what is going on. In the end, the two foals that my mother wanted were sent to the Lingzhou City of Daru Huachifu. The Li family compensated my mother 20 taels of silver, and asked the doctor to give my father a few to take a look at the injury. My dad had no face and refused. ”

Although the Li family caravan that collided with Old Woman Cui's donkey cart was not the one led by Cheng Yuliang, he had heard about this incident: "Didn't your mother tell you how her donkey cart was shocked? The caravans gave way to her, and she didn't go. As soon as the caravan left, she went. After repeating it several times, she and the driver kept saying that it was not intentional.

The two foals she asked for were wild horses in the northwest grasslands, and one was worth no less than a thousand taels of silver. If they hadn't been maliciously entangled and troubled to the official office, the caravan would not have sent them to the mansion of Daru Huachi in Lingzhou City. Who should compensate for the loss of the Li family? ”

Figure 6 dragged the person out, and regardless of whether the old woman Cui was cold or not, he pushed her towards Cui Shiji: "I also opened my eyes, and the widow who was almost 60 years old asked the doctor to come to see her, and she was dressed like this." ”

She invited Yang Baizhuo again this time. Cui Shi has a cold eye: "My father is loyal and hard-working, diligent and diligent, and he is also generous, the only bad thing is to marry a... You. "Look at her black and shiny green silk, you know that she is healthy. When she came with Yang Baizhuo, did she ever think about his father?

The old woman Cui was shivering from the cold, looking up at her child with teary eyes, and she was powerless to scold: "You ... What are you coming back for? Her teeth chattered, and she was glad that Cui Rong still had a seed outside.

Cui Shi didn't reply, and continued his previous words: "It's good to entangle the Li family's caravan to decline, so that you can completely wake up, it turns out that my father's good name is not used at all, and the Cui family is an ordinary businessman who sells coffins on paper in Lingzhou." You are disappointed, and your head is full of the momentum of the Li family's caravan. You have been angry with your father for two years, and your father has tried to coax you. You love to ignore it until Yuan Hanshan comes to the door.

Dad doesn't want to get involved, you cry and make trouble and can't swallow that breath. What is your background, and where do you come from to be so generous?

Father wants to send you back to your mother's house, and you threaten to publicize it. Do you know why Yuan Hanshan dared to tell his father everything about the Li family? Because the people have already deployed it, they are not afraid of their father leaking it out, because the life of the entire Cui family is in the hands of others.

Dad wanted to stay away from Qi Yun and Yuan Hanshan, but you desperately pushed the Cui family to Yuan Hanshan and the Qi family's palm. Finally, everything went as you wished. ”

Old woman Cui burst into tears: "Mother regrets it, really." After your father is gone, my mother regrets it. If you seek skin with a tiger, you can't die well. After sinking for many years, she has long been sober, and Cui Rong's heart for her is the most difficult to find in the world. Her stupidity and superficiality hurt Cui Rong, harmed the Cui family, and ruined her life.

"Do you regret it?" Cui Shi had already stepped back and shook his head with a smile: "You really make me sick." ”

"Mother, yes... I'm sorry for you. The old woman Cui couldn't stop crying.

It's late, and there's no point in it. Cui Shi no longer wanted to ask where the people at home were, so he raised his eyes and looked at Li Shang: "There are paper people in the west wing of my courtyard, and each paper person has a deed in it. Don't be too unlucky, there are dozens of them. ”

Li Shang also had a question: "Why did they transport the Li family's treasures to the south." ”

"The Qi family has found a craftsman in the south, and is ready to change the Li family's treasures, otherwise it will be difficult to sell." Cui Shi had already touched his waist with his hand and pulled out a very fine silver thread.

Qi Jian asked, "Then do you know who killed your father in your family?" ”

"I don't know, but there's speculation." Cui Shi had already wrapped the silver wire around his neck: "After my father and they had no news, several families also quietly searched for it. The Li family is a wealthy man in the northwest, and no one dares to guarantee that Li Ransheng and his father will not leave behind. We all know that once my dad and his party are captured alive, everyone will be done. For a while, including the Absolute Evil Tower, everyone was terrified and did not dare to make any more moves.

After waiting for a few days, there was no sound, and the eleven families made an agreement with the Qi family and the Juesha Building, and they were silent for three years. Three years later, the Li family industry was collected again. ”

"Who gave Wei Fang's money?" Qi Jianjue is Fang Kuo, but looking at Fang Kuo's face, it doesn't seem to be quite similar.

Cui Shi had already pulled the two ends of the silver wire with his hands: "I don't know." ”

"It's time..."The old woman crawled towards him. Cui Shi didn't want to look at her anymore, closed his eyes, a tear rolled down, and whispered: "Mother, I really think it's good to keep the paper shop." As soon as the sound fell, he suddenly pulled his hands hard, and blood poured out from his head.

A few drops of blood poured onto Old Lady Cui's pale face, and she paused. The headless body fell towards her, and she didn't move.

Li Shang looked at it, his face was indifferent. Figure 8, standing at the door, with his arms folded: "It's a standing peeing." ”

Holding the child's corpse, Cui Shi was dripping with tears in his eyes, and his fingers stained with Kodan trembled and touched the blood-stained silver thread, and grabbed it and wrapped it around his neck: "It's my mother's fault, it's my mother who has harmed you..." Looking at the bright red that was still seeping out of the broken neck, the scene when she and Cui Rong got married came to mind.

Cui Rong walked the rivers and lakes when she was young, and she didn't get married until she was 30, 14 years older than her, and she was loved and spoiled like a daughter. He will give whatever she wants. What about her, what did she bring to him? Cui Shi smiled, looked up at the sky, slowly closed his eyes, and pulled the silver wire with force. On weekdays, she is most afraid of pain, but today she may be dead, and she doesn't feel pain.

With more strength with both hands, she should change her clothes, wear this to go to Huangquan, Cui Rong can't be angry when she sees it?

Feeling the blood flowing, Cui's hands were stronger. It's good to be angry, Cui Rong is obviously not stupid, why can't he see through her true face.

She's not coquettish, she's really vain and profligate, and she's really not worthy of him treating her like that.

At the end of the day, Li Shang returned to the appearance of Yang Baizhuo, and left Cui's house with a ruler sword dressed as a small servant. Next, it's the turn of the Gongchuan Sun family. The two of them walked through the city and listened to gossip.
