Chapter 97: Cold Blood (2)

A few people suddenly came over, and Liao Jianzhong said in a low voice: "Pay attention to the front!" "Those people were all dressed in black, wearing the robes of Dongchang, and at first glance, they couldn't tell what was abnormal.

The men were a little surprised when they noticed that we were looking at them, and quickly turned to another intersection, and I saw that there was a person who looked very much like the pony father, and I couldn't help blurting out, "It seems that the pony is inside!" They looked at me, and Hua Shichun was about to chase after me, Liao Jianzhong said: "Let's pretend to go back to the Zhenfu Division, they will come over." ”

A few of us walked steadily towards the Zhenfu Division, I subconsciously touched the handle of the embroidered spring knife, and the short sword in the boots was also there, and Liao Jianzhong and the others strode forward, and there was nothing abnormal at all. I'm ashamed of myself, but I'm also a lot calmer.

The road back to Zhenfusi is not very long, we quickly passed through that intersection, at this time the sky is getting brighter and brighter, the surrounding things can be seen clearly, we glanced over there, and found a long street, there is no one, surrounded by high walls, ordinary people can't leave, doubts, looked at each other, Gu Dayou said: "These people are quite capable, and they will disappear after a while!" ”

The voice was over, Liao Jianzhong shouted "be careful", the embroidered spring knife had already been pulled out, his body jumped, and the embroidered spring knife was unfolded in the air, like a fan, but the crackling sound sounded, and when he looked closely, there were a lot of silver needles scattered on the ground, and we were so shocked that we pulled out the knife, and there was no one in front of us. Liao Jianzhong raised the knife in his hand and said, "Since you dare to do it here, why don't you show up?" ”

The sound was full of energy, and we actually felt a roar. I only heard someone grinning and said, "I respect you as a man, and you can treat my brother well, this rainstorm pear blossom needle didn't try his best to play." The road is facing the sky, and each goes on its own side. We'll see you again! ”

The laughter faded away, we pondered and wanted to chase after it, Liao Jianzhong waved his hand to stop it, and said: "This person is Liu Qingfeng, his best thing is the rainstorm pear flower needle, he didn't use all his strength, let's let him go for the time being!" Then he added, "It seems that these people are gone." What about our Brother Ji? ”

I think of Yin Hua, she rescued Yu Qi, she must be in the same group as Liu Qingfeng, and sighed in my heart, I really don't want to be against her, but what can I do? Hua Shichun said: "What is he doing here?" Gu Dayou said: "You forgot?" Yu Qi has been accompanying the Pony Father-in-law in the Zhenfu Division, what can they do? They're all in the same boat! ”

Liao Jianzhong pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that we did make a mistake, hurry up and go back to the Zhenfu Division!" ”

I guess that Liu Qingfeng came here, and it must have something to do with Grandpa Pony. On that day, we surrounded Liu Qingfeng in the Ruyi Fang, waiting to be arrested, but the father-in-law of Xiaoma came and said that he had been ordered by the master of ceremonies Wang Yue's father-in-law to let us go, and now it seems that they must be in a group. I wondered how the eunuchs in the palace could become friends with pirates. Later, after experiencing more things, I realized that even people who don't know each other can still become friends because of common interests!

We rushed back to the Zhenfu Division, the guards at the door were already from the East Factory, it was quiet inside, we went straight inside, no one stopped us, but there were more people on guard, and when we arrived at the inner courtyard, there were also more people from the East Factory in the courtyard, the main hall of the council hall was open, and there was no sound at all, but we could see Lin Sheng and Ji Lifan roasting the brazier.

There was no sign of a fight here, but the side room next to it was locked, and there seemed to be a figure inside. Liao Jianzhong looked around and said loudly: "Gonggong Lin, Ji Qianhu, it's so cold, let's put a brazier on the brothers!" ”

Lin Sheng got up and said with a smile: "It's still my own family who is worried about my own family, hehe, come here, put a brazier on every room, Commander Liao has spoken, how can our family give face." A group of people answered, and then began to deliver braziers, and sure enough, there were people in the room, and when they looked closely, it turned out to be those brocade guards last night, and they were all detained.

Liao Jianzhong motioned for us to enter the house together, Ji Lifan had been roasting the fire, his chubby face was sweating a lot. Liao Jianzhong didn't look at him, but said to Lin Sheng: "Father-in-law Lin, why is Father-in-law Pony gone?" Lin Sheng looked at Ji Lifan, then at us, and said softly: "Father-in-law Pony has escaped!" ”

Liao Jianzhong was not surprised, and said, "It was Liu Qingfeng and Yu Qi who rescued them, right?" Lin Sheng nodded and said, "Just left, our family can't fight him, so we have to let him go!" Liao Jianzhong walked a few steps, looked at Ji Lifan, who was speechless, and said, "Ji Qianhu, what are you going to do?" ”

Ji Lifan looked up at Liao Jianzhong, his forehead was full of beads of sweat, his face was flushed, and he smiled for a long time: "I remember when we entered the Jinyi Guard, in front of the statue of Emperor Guan's grandfather, we swore and dared to act." Now that it has reached such a point, Ji has nothing to say, he can deal with it as he wants!"

When he saw me, he smiled and said, "Lord Liao, you won't laugh at my insight, it's not as good as this young man, right?" Liao Jianzhong frowned slightly, looked at him, and said: "People's ambitions are different, he is an ignorant young man, but you are a man who stands up to the sky." Although our political views are different, Ji Qianhu has never been afraid of life and death, and has always been a model we respect in our hearts. Ji Lifan shook his head and said: "Who is not afraid of death, there are old and young, Ji is also an ordinary person, and he also wants to live a peaceful life for his wife, but I am not so big-minded and can't accept black and white impermanence." When Hongzhi Ye was alive, although we were suppressed, but our hearts were happy, in just half a year, you Lord Liao is a fine person, look at what the situation is? It is difficult to change from bad to good, and it is easy to change from good to bad, Ji accepted his fate, but did not admit defeat. Liao Jianzhong was shocked, he wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say. I looked at Ji Lifan's serious face, which was very different from the face that was always smiling in the past, and I didn't feel more respect.

Lin Sheng sighed and said: "Ji Lifan hooked up with Wang Yue, the master of ceremonies, and Ma Jing, the eunuch of the imperial horse, in the past, and plotted against him, Dongchang has long known about it, and now he is ordered by the eunuch Liu Gonggong, who is the master of ceremonies, to be imprisoned immediately, investigate clearly, and then dispose of it!" ”

Ji Lifan stood up, laughed, and said, "I didn't want more brothers to fall, so I didn't do it." I'm on the same with the prince and the pony bus, if I say that the plot is wrong, I'm afraid it's just a crime to add to it, it's just that since Ji stayed, then I will go with you! ”

Lin Sheng waved his hand, and a captain had already stepped forward and wanted to put a torture instrument on Ji Lifan, Liao Jianzhong said angrily: "Do you need to wear a torture instrument for the dignified pacification envoy?" The lieutenant was so frightened that he hurriedly stepped back, Ji Lifan smiled and said, "Why bother with them? Put it on when you need to. Lin Sheng nodded and said, "Thank you, Lord Ji, for your success!" Then he made a blank face and said, "Immediately escort the prisoner to the East Factory!" Handed over to Gu Dayong's father-in-law to dispose of! Liao Jianzhong was taken aback, he wanted to speak, but he couldn't say it, you must know that most Qin prisoners are detained in Jinyiwei's edict prison, but this season has been sent to Dongchang, everyone knows that there is no return.

Ji Lifan was not afraid, raised his head, straightened his waist, and strode away. The three of us watched him leave with mixed thoughts.

The winter sun is warm, and the city of Beijing, which has slept all night, is gradually regaining its vitality. Heavy snowfall over the past few days has whitewashed the city and restricted people's travel. The Year of Ruixue is the longing and flattery of the literati and writers for the future, but for people who are accustomed to city life, they still want to see the sunshine. People on the street opened the courtyard gate and cleaned up the courtyard. I saw the neighbors, and they were just about to say a few words to each other, but they were all driven back to the house by the officials of Shuntianfu. The people who woke up from the panic were surprised to find that the streets were full of officials. The men of the Five Cities Terracotta Division patrolled back and forth, warning the occasional pedestrian, that it was forbidden to go to the streets today, and all the city gates were under martial law, isolated from the inside and outside, and only the crows flying by could pass over the city, and the beginning of the day was a tense day.

Ordinary people don't know what's going on, but they can guess what's going on. And I know what's going on, but I don't know what's going to happen next. At this moment, I was wearing a brand-new python robe, leading my subordinates, to the west of the city, to capture Yang Hong, the supervisor of Qintian, and his family.
