In the study of He Mansion, He Youdao was dressed in purple and straight, wearing a square scarf, sitting in front of the bookcase like a scholar, holding a pigeon in one hand and caressing a feather with the other, and a note was placed on the desk. His pair of triangular eyes stared at the man in the long robe in front of him like poisonous snakes, and asked, "Does that surnamed Hu have tea?"

The man in the long robe bowed down and said, "Back to Master, it's useless, just standing in the pavilion and enjoying the scenery." ”

He Youdao snorted coldly, then picked up a pen and wrote something on the note, tied it to the pigeon's feet, raised his hand and let it go.

He got up and paced to the pear shelf on his left, which was full of antique toys, but the most striking thing was a red coral in the East China Sea. He said while enjoying the game: "This person is not Hu Sihai of Haijiaomen, hey, it's a pity that I have a small bag of good medicine."

The man in the long shirt was puzzled, so he asked, "Master, how did you know that this person is not Hu Sihai?"

He Youdao sneered and said, "If he drinks that tea, I will believe that he is the head of Haijiaomen, even if he is poisoned, I will give him an antidote." It's a pity that he was too cautious, standing in the pavilion, not dripping water, but showing his horse's feet. Ding Sheng, go and ask your second junior brother to bring some people and go to Yongping. ”

"Master, the disciple is ignorant. Ding Sheng saluted respectfully, "I also asked the master to clarify his doubts." ”

"Since you want to know, then the teacher will tell you" He Youdao turned around, slowly stroked his beard, and walked towards the door, "First, if you are really anxious for me, in the middle of summer, I am upset and irritable, thirsty, and I must drink tea when I see tea in the pavilion, and this person is not anxious, and he is wary, and eighty percent is ill-intentioned. Second, if he stands outside the pavilion waiting for me, even if he doesn't drink the tea, I will still believe in him, and ordinary people are determined to wait outside the pavilion out of fear, but he stands in the pavilion to enjoy the scenery, although he asks for me, but there is no awe, which can show that this person is not an idle person. Third, "He Youdao pointed to the note on the bookcase, "You go and see this letter, as I expected, this person is Shen Jun of Qingyunzhuang"

With a glance, Ding Sheng put down the note and said, "Since this is the case, it is better to do nothing and get rid of him, so as not to leave a disaster." As he spoke, he made a decapitation motion.

He Youdao was a little angry and said: "Ding Sheng, Ding Sheng, as the chief disciple of my Hundred Poison Sect, how come your brain has not grown at all?

Ding Sheng was unwilling, but he didn't dare to show the slightest, so he only said: "Please forgive the disciple for being ignorant!"

"You killed him in the back garden of Hefu, not to mention that you caused me trouble, and the Lord Men wanted to find out the evidence that Yuan Bin was encircling the forces of the rivers and lakes and preparing to rebel, did you give it? When the emperor relented and let Yuan Bin go, how could you and I have good fruit to eat! Therefore, this person can't be killed now!"

At this time, a disciple ran outside the door and said, "Your Excellency, someone from the Sect's Mansion asks you to come over immediately." ”

He Youdao looked at Ding Sheng and said to the disciples outside the door: "Prepare the horse." ”

Ding Sheng asked in fear: "Then ...... over here?"

"You go and send it for me, just say that I was ordered by Lord Men to go to Henan Mansion on an errand, and it will take a month to come back. He Youdao was just about to leave, and then instructed, "Let your second junior brother take the beggars to Yongping immediately with the people and horses in the capital, and bring back everything that Shen Jun's family can bring, and kill those who can't be brought!"

Shen Jun had never seen He Youdao before, so he asked someone to draw a portrait early, and Xindao could recognize seven or eight points by virtue of the portrait. After listening to what Ding Sheng said, he was suspicious, so he took the weapon, and after coming out of He Fu, he hurriedly went directly to Xuanwu Gate.

He decided in his heart that if he went to Henan Mansion, He Youdao and his party would go out of Xuanwu Gate, so the internal force was poured into his legs, the wind was born under his feet, and he showed his light skills, sometimes he walked like flying, sometimes he stepped on the tile and jumped over the wall, and he came to Xuanwu Gate in less than half a pillar of incense.

Out of the city, Shen Jun saw a tea shop on the side of the road, found a remote seat, ordered a pot of tea, and said secretly in his heart: "Before coming out, Ding Sheng said, He Youdao has just set off, if what Ding Sheng said is true, it is time to go out of the city." ”

Sure enough, as Shen Jun expected, after the kung fu of the tea, I saw He Youdao riding out of the city gate, followed by more than ten brocade guards, domineering.

At this time, I listened to a few people at the next table pointing to He Youdao and his party chatting: "See, the leader is He Youdao, the minions of Jinyiwei, and the poisonous snake around Menda! Looking at that posture, maybe it is which official and gentry have suffered! The corrupt officials are just that, these good officials have been harmed by these thieves and have nowhere to go, and it is the common people who suffer in the end!"

Hearing this gossip, although Shen Jun was annoyed, he remained silent, waited for He Youdao to walk away, threw two copper coins on the table, got up and followed, and at the same time secretly observed whether there was a chance to get rid of He Youdao.

Shen Jun didn't know how cunning he was, and he would come if he had calculated it a long time ago. After He Youdao came out of the mansion, he quickly reported to Menda that he knew, and borrowed more than ten brocade guards to play this scene with him to run an errand.

The soldiers were fast, He Youdao calculated the time, and deliberately went out of the city from Xuanwu Gate, in order to let Shen Jun take the bait. When he went out of the city, he didn't notice that someone was peeping, and he didn't realize that someone was following him until he was on the way, and the person who followed him had a high attainment, so he speculated that Bacheng was Shen Jun of Qingyunzhuang.

The name of Shen Jun, He Youdao has also heard of it, the hero of the Yongping generation, who studied under Tan Zhenzhi of the Huashan faction, belongs to the Zhenyue Palace of the Huashan faction. Tan Zhenzhi is a famous martial arts master, the so-called famous teacher and high apprentice, Shen Jun is quite true, and he can also be called outstanding in martial arts, his swordsmanship is sharp, and his light skills are first-class.

But He Youdao, as the head of a faction, is not in vain, especially because of his poisonous skills, which can be described as unfathomable and terrifying.

Until he left the good township, He Youdao and others waited for the horses to stand on the official road, and Shen Jun also followed not far away, hiding behind an old tree with a thick tank mouth on the side of the road. Holding his breath and concentrating, he heard his words clearly.

He Youdao thought that Shen Jun was nearby, and he was always doing enough drama, so he looked up at the sky, and deliberately said loudly: "It's not early, I have to rush to Baoding Mansion overnight to rest and recuperate, otherwise I will miss the major affairs of the court, and you and I will not be able to take care of it!"

He Youdao had also thought about whether to make a move here Except for Shen Jun, after thinking about it along the way, it would be most appropriate to leave him alive for the time being.

And Shen Jun saw that He Youdao and his party were always on guard, and it was impossible to find an opportunity to get rid of it, not to mention the various masters of Jinyiwei, even He Youdao's depth He was not sure, and he couldn't hear He Youdao's righteous words, it didn't seem to be deceitful, so he followed a few miles, and finally his foot strength was not good, even if the light work was good, it was not as fast as the whip, a hundred miles a day.

Nomura smoked and startled geese.

The sunset was red, and Shen Jun followed him all the way, and he did consume a lot of energy. I saw a small shop on the side of the road in front of me, a few square tables, a few benches, cold and deserted in the shed, and there was no half of the customer, and the word "wine" was written on the banner hanging outside, which was very conspicuous on the official road in the suburbs, and the shopkeeper was lazily lying on the counter dozing, and there was no guy to greet business.

Shen Jun patted the counter and said, "The shopkeeper, wake up!" The voice was not loud, but it also startled the shopkeeper, and he stood up immediately, and he was sure that he was a visitor, and hurriedly greeted with a smile: "Rude and rude, the small shop is remote, and the guest officer is still looking at Haihan if he neglects it!"

Shen Jun looked funny, this shopkeeper is very interesting, although he has set up a shop in the countryside on the outskirts of Beijing, he is a middle-aged scholar, weak and thin, wearing a square scarf, wearing a gray cloth straight jacket, speaking politely, very polite, not at all like the usual businessmen.

Looking at the book he was pressing when he was sleeping, it was actually a copy of "Mencius", and the cover was already a little dilapidated, thinking that this book must be often turned, and the person who wanted to come to this shopkeeper was also a showman. Although Shen Jun was in the rivers and lakes, he was the most respectful scholar in his life, and when he saw the shopkeeper saluting him, he hurriedly returned one.

Then I heard the shopkeeper ask, "Guest, what do you want to use?"

Shen Jun's stomach was empty at this time, and he said: "Three steamed buns, a pot of wine, a roast chicken, and two side dishes." After hearing this, the shopkeeper immediately went to the back kitchen and gave orders. Shen Jun unsheathed his sword, put it on the table, and sat there with his lap in his lap, and after only a few moments, the wine and food were ready. While eating, he chatted with the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, seeing that you talk well, you must also be a well-known scholar, how did you do business here?"

The shopkeeper shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "Don't hide it from the guest officer, I used to be famous, but the world is cold, I offended those who shouldn't be offended, and I was implicated in those who shouldn't be implicated, so that my family fell into the middle of the road, and I was able to make a living here.

Hearing the grievances in his words, he thought that he had encountered injustice, so Shen Jun said again: "The shopkeeper might as well say it, even if you can't help it, say it so that you can feel more happy." ”

The shopkeeper had been depressed for a long time, and seeing Shen Jun's open-minded appearance, he somehow wanted to vomit quickly, and listened to him: "Guest officer, this matter is a long story, not to mention that if the people involved in this matter know about you, I am afraid of causing trouble to the guest officer." ”

Shen Jun was even more curious, and said: "It's okay, I know the severity below, and I won't talk about it." ”

The shopkeeper sighed and said, "Okay, then I'll tell you what to do! Don't hide it from the guest official, my father Zonglin originally served in the Inspectorate, and the official was the imperial history of the capital, and he did pass the examination in the next one. Originally, with the relationship between my father, I didn't have to study hard for many years to gain fame, if I dredged and dredged, I could also take a shortcut, and mix an official and a half-post in the court, but my father was an honest official and had a clean sleeve, and he didn't want to do that pickled thing, otherwise he would really read those sage books in vain. In the spring of last year, my father was really angry when he saw that Menda's behavior was becoming more and more rampant and disturbing the laws of the court, so he handed a piece of paper to the emperor and took Menda into a copy. But because of this, Menda held a grudge against his father. Ordered Jin Yiwei to weave evidence of his father's corruption and rebellion everywhere, and monitored and listened to my house day and night, making the family restless!"

Shen Jun saw him pause, his face was bitter, and he hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

"Hmph! My father is upright and upright, and that villain really can't be traced!" The shopkeeper was angry in his heart, and then smiled bitterly: "Later, I don't know where I found out, it turns out that my father and the traitor surnamed Shi who was punished and killed in the first few years are distant cousins who can't be beaten by eight poles." The emperor's ears were soft, and he couldn't hear a little about the traitor's affairs, so he ordered Menda to send his father to prison, and that place was like hell, even if he could come out alive, he would lose half his life if he ended well. In desperation, I had to sell my property and find someone to dredge up the relationship and bribe Menda, so that my father was rescued, and finally my father was removed from his official position, and I was also dismissed from my reputation, but fortunately I was saved my life, but now I am also sick for a long time, and I have to do something here to make a living, so that my father can heal his body. ”

Shen Jun was indignant when he heard this, and his chest rose and fell, but he was helpless about the pickled things in the officialdom, so he only said: "Heaven is unfair, Heaven is unfair!"

The shopkeeper hurriedly apologized, and said: "It's all old things, and saying it has added a lot of trouble to the guest officials, and I really can't help it!"

After hearing the reason, Shen Jun also changed his mind to the shopkeeper, and said: "What did Mr. say!

The two gossiped for a while, Shen Jun was full of wine and food, gave the money, saw that it was not early, got up and said goodbye, and said: "It is really fate to meet Mr. today, but I still have important things, otherwise I should talk with Mr. Bing Candle, if there is a chance in the future, Shen Jun must drink with Mr."

Shen Jun arched his hand, picked up the sword and was about to leave, the shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Brother Tai stays, it is really hard to see you walking on foot, there is an old horse behind here, if Brother Tai does not give up, I will borrow you to walk." ”

Shen Jun wanted to excuse himself, but seeing the sincerity of the shopkeeper, it was not easy to twist, and it was not easy to delay the business if he had a horse. So he thanked the shopkeeper, led the horse and rushed to the Xizhao Temple.

The moon rose in the sky, and a figure came to the outside of the Xizhao Temple early and hid.
