Confess your sins

The moon is bright tonight, but the wind is not warm.

The wind outside Chang'an City blew people's faces painfully.

Wang Huihai has been lurking in Chang'an honestly for the past three days, without any action. As soon as it was dark, he put on his big sword and arrived at Sanlixi in advance.

The leaves of the peach trees beside the Sanli Creek had long since fallen, and the only sound of the wind and the stream hitting the stones could be heard from the lonely peach grove.

Fortunately, although there are no leaves in the peach grove to block the view, there are also a few large rocks. Although Wang Huihai was a little burly, he tried hard to squeeze it, but he was still able to commit himself and let the big stone barely block his figure.

Wang Huihai untied the giant sword on his back and put it on the ground, looked at a clearing, and then adjusted his posture, feeling that he would not be discovered, so he hibernated quietly.

It didn't take long for Qing Jiu, dressed in white, to arrive, and he looked like a turbid son in the moonlight. Qing Jiu stood in the open space for a while, then glanced around. Then, his gaze suddenly fixed on Wang Huihai's direction.

Qing Jiu frowned in the moonlight, these days, he has suffered a lot of hunting. The righteous are looking for him, and the devil is looking for him. Although Zhan Xu and Wang Huihai have been following behind, as long as Qing Jiu's life is not in danger, they will not show up at all.

After a while, he became cautious.

Qing Jiu's footsteps are getting closer and closer, and Wang Huihai's heartbeat is getting faster and faster, he is not afraid of Qing Jiu, but he is worried that Qing Jiu will affect the young master's plan after discovering him.

The footsteps seemed to be remembered next to his ears, and Wang Huihai's heart rose to his throat.

When Qing Jiu was less than a foot away from Wang Huihai, a figure suddenly swept into the peach forest and landed behind Qing Jiu.

Qing Jiu turned around abruptly and looked at the old man with two swords on his back, with a smile on his face.

"You're finally here. ”

Listening to the footsteps of Qing Jiu's departure, Wang Huihai was relieved.

When he poked his head out, he only saw a red light enveloping the two of them, Wang Huihai's cultivation was higher than Xu Chang'an and Qing Jiu, but he didn't dare to forcibly see what was going on inside. It's just that his original intention was not to spy on Qing Jiu. It's the same as Qing Jiu, breaking his own demons.

He only hoped that Qing Jiu would lose and Xu Changan would not die. Otherwise, he will be disappointed.

The red light mask was like a big bowl and the two of them were upside down, and Wang Huihai hid behind the stones, feeling both worried and panicked.

After about a quarter of an hour, the large red bowl cracked like porcelain, and finally dissipated into the air.

Qing Jiu was half-squatting on the ground with one hand, and the small copper bowl of the holy mountain also fell to the ground, the white clothes on his body were already stained red with blood, he raised his head, and panted and looked at the long sword in front of him.

Chengying looked particularly gorgeous under the moonlight, with a golden sword and a fish-like sword body.

It's just that the sword stopped at Qing Jiu's forehead,

"In the future, don't come to me. After Xu Changan finished speaking, he put away his long sword and walked towards Chang'an without looking back.

Qing Jiu stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, picked up the copper bowl, and then left as well.

The two really didn't seem to have discovered Wang Huihai, and this battle was a bit unsatisfactory for Wang Huihai.

He always felt weird, but he couldn't tell what was weird.

Wang Huihai glanced up at the moon and walked back to the city with full questions.

This interesting contest on Fengwu Mountain arrived in Chang'an

Outside the city, it became like chicken ribs. Even in addition to the parties involved, only Wang Huihai knows.

This competition did not make any splashes, but the news the next day was that one stone stirred up a thousand waves, which caught the rivers and lakes and the court a little off guard.

Xu Changan, the Marquis of Zhongyi, pleaded guilty, and he admitted that he killed Mei Linkai!

As soon as this news came out, everyone was stunned, and even the Holy Emperor was almost unstable on his feet.

As soon as this news came out, Dali Temple was full of officials. Many people wonder why just overnight, the little marquis confessed to the charge of murder, and it was the court official who killed him.

But most of them were stopped, and even Zhang Luqin, the secretary of the ministry, couldn't step into Dali Temple for half a step.

In the hall, there was an old man sitting on the main seat, and on his left hand side was Xu Chang'an, who caused turmoil, and on his right hand side was Xue Zhengwu, the secretary of the Criminal Department.

In addition, Luo Shaohua, the temple secretary of Dali Temple, could only stand beside Xue Zhengwu, and there was no one else in the hall. Not to mention the hall, there were no other people in the courtyard. Outside the courtyard, there are masters silently guarding them.

"Why?" Guo Jinghui closed his eyes, as if he was recuperating.

Except for this Lord Shangshuling, how can the rest of the officials be qualified to enter this Dali Temple at this time and see Xu Chang'an.

"There is no why. Xu Changan replied lightly, his voice was cold, like a scoop of cold water in a winter well.

Guo Jinghui didn't continue to ask, he looked at Luo Shaohua and Xue Zhengwu, and suddenly shouted angrily.

"Where did he go last night!" The two court officials were so frightened that their legs were weak, and they could only reply expectantly: "We don't know, he just said that he wanted to go out!"

"Rubbish!"

After Guo Jinghui scolded, his eyes moved to Xu Changan.

"Insufficient evidence, invalid!"

"I admit it myself, why is it insufficient!"

"No one believes you killed you, and you've already locked up the other suspects!"

"It doesn't matter. At this time, Xu Changan was like an old man who saw everything, facing his own life and death, and replied lightly.

Guo Jinghui stared at Xu Changan's eyes, Xu Changan didn't look at him, his eyes were level, his eyes were open and natural, and nothing else.

The old man saw that Xu Changan had made up his mind, so he could only close his eyes and sigh and say, "As you wish." ”

As soon as these words came out, Xue Zhengwu was suddenly shocked, his voice was poignant, and he knelt on the ground.

"Lord Guo think twice!"

Guo Jinghui shook his head and did not change his mind.

"Let's do what the rules do!"

Xue Zhengwu lowered his head and knelt on the ground silently; Luo Shaohua saw the situation at this time, thought about it, and knelt on the ground as well.

After being silent for a long time, Guo Jinghui gritted his teeth and shouted angrily: "Do things according to the rules!"

Looking at Xue Zhengwu, who was still not moving, the respected Shang Shuling stood up and kicked Xue Zhengwu over.

"Do you want the old man to change your criminal department book!!" and you!" said, and he also pointed to Luo Shaohua.

Xue Zhengwu got up, lowered his head, and exited the hall with Luo Shaohua.

In the hall, only this Lord Shangshuling and Xu Changan were left.

"There's no one left, let's talk about it. Guo Jinghui calmed down and looked at Xu Changan, this kid's eyebrows and eyes are very similar to him back then, and he is as stubborn as him.

"I didn't kill people

。 Xu Changan spoke.

Guo Jinghui was not surprised by this result, he believed in this child, just as he believed in Xu Ningqing at the beginning.

"I know. ”

"But it's all about me. Mr. Guo, have you ever heard of that rule?"

Guo Jinghui glanced at Xu Changan and said, "Of course I know, but even so, there is a way to ensure that the rivers and lakes and temples continue to be the same as before, and the two are irrelevant." I believe that this is not a reason for you to be guilty. ”

Xu Changan nodded.

"Lord Guo is right, I said this just to ask you to bring a word to the Holy Emperor. ”

Guo Jinghui stared at him without words. Xu Changan took a sip of tea, with a smile in his eyes.

"The world is very good, the court is also very good, and the people are also very good. Therefore, please rest assured that the imperial court and the rivers and lakes will not be chaotic because of the people surnamed Xu. Guo Jinghui, who heard this, suddenly shook his hand and almost couldn't hold the cup.

His eyes were a little moist, and Xu Ningqing had said the same thing to him more than twenty years ago!

Guo Jinghui's hands trembled uncontrollably, and his voice trembled a little.

"What do you know?"

Xu Changan smiled, not wanting to answer his question.

"Yes, your father and son are the same, and I don't need to ask more. ”

When Xu Changan heard this, he took out two letters, put them on the table, and walked to the door, with his back to the pillar of the dynasty.

"Please send these two letters to my brother outside the city, and one of them I ask my brother to pass it on to a friend. ”

Without waiting for Guo Jinghui to agree, Xu Changan walked out of the hall directly.

Guo Jinghui looked at the back of this young man, thought about it for a long time, he couldn't tell whether this back was Xu Changan or Xu Ningqing, and finally sighed and put the letter in his arms.

......

Hearing the news, Mei Ruolan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt inexplicable in her heart, and even Cheng Baiyi was so surprised that her mouth grew.

In Jingmen Prefecture, Cheng Baili was blocked in front of a group of water thieves.

It is speculated that the letter was in the hands of the water thieves, and even if it didn't, some of them knew the news.

The leader seemed to be a half-grown child, and Cheng Baili didn't even need a quarter of an hour to deal with this group of people, but he just stopped this group of escaping water thieves and didn't make a move.

"If you want to kill, you can kill, Lao Tzu is not afraid of death!" Cui Wei shouted angrily wearing the mask of a blue-faced fanged ghost. In the past few days, he felt that this immortal master had been playing tricks on himself, killing or injuring only a few people each time, and then deliberately letting himself break through and run out.

"What's your last name?" Cheng Baili touched his chin and asked with a solemn face.

"Your grandfather, my surname is Cui!" After speaking, he took the remaining dozen or so water thieves with big knives and slashed at Cheng Baili.

When Cheng Baili heard this, he was distracted for a while, remembering the past. Then he heard that the blade was coming, and hurriedly dodged. However, this time, his shot was much lighter, not to mention death, not even the injured.

A group of people fell to the ground and wailed, as long as Cui Wei stood in the center of the crowd.

Cheng Baili approached Cui Wei step by step, and the smile on his face was a little infiltrating.

"What does the big boss surnamed Cui on Devil Mountain have to do with you?"

This month will not be updated every day, but it will not be a eunuch, support the addition, and the rules for adding more are in the top post.
