Two days later, as soon as Rong Chengjin's body recovered, the two took out some silver taels and left them for the old woman, and resigned with great gratitude.

The two went to the bazaar to buy dry food for horses, changed their appearance, changed their names and surnames, and galloped all the way to Hongdu. The silver taels spent along the way were all scavenged by He Ji and Lu Yang from the Jin family. The poor two tried their best to harm others to squeeze money and money, but they didn't enjoy it, but they lost one death and one injury, and their own lives, which is really lamentable!

Above the city gate of Hongdu Mansion, a rope hangs the body of Jin Chongwu, and a notice is posted next to the gate to enter and exit, which reads: Jin Chongwu, a native of Huoqiu County, Fengyang Prefecture, received a dart to escort the priceless treasure of the prince on a certain day in a certain month. colluded with bandits in an attempt to hide from the world, and later, under the wise interrogation of the prince, his deeds were revealed, and he committed suicide in prison. Today, I inform the people that they will abide by the law and take it as a warning. In the lower right corner, the words such as the end of a certain year and a month are printed with the seal of the Chenwang Mansion.

At that time, according to Jin Chongwu, half a month had passed when he died, and the corpse was hanging above the city gate, and the frost and sun were shining every day, and the wind and rain had fermented, and the stench of the corpse was faintly emitted. People in the past covered their noses, frowned and couldn't escape, where did anyone stop and watch.

At this time, the news of Jin Chongwu being hung at the city gate had already spread throughout Hongdu City. It has become a topic of conversation for people in restaurants, street restaurants, and after tea and dinner. When people saw that King Chen was so cruel and did not dare to make noise on his lips, he had already talked about it in private.

In a restaurant, there are many diners, talking to each other.

A rather dashing young man, holding a folding fan in his hand, took a sip of tea, and asked: "Brother, who is the corpse hanging from the south city gate, why has the prince been hanging for so long and still refuses to put it down? What is it that annoys the prince, does he have such a great hatred?"

The one sitting at the next table replied a little sourly: "Hey, you don't know about this, this matter is a long story, speaking of this person has a great background, this person is from Huoqiu County, Fengyang Prefecture, named Jin Chongwu, known as 'Double-armed Fulong', opened a dart bureau in the local area, and his martial arts are really good." A few days ago, the palace guards sent by Prince Chen to Luoyang to find rare and valuable treasures for the prince......"

When the poor sour said this, he suddenly paused, looked around a few times, and whispered in a low voice: "...... It is said that it is the family heirloom of the old Liu Xiangguo of the former court, the prince was very happy, and later because the guards of the palace had other things to do, he sent two people to watch Jin Chongwu escort this thing back, I don't want Jin Chongwu to see the baby also moved, quietly came to steal the beam to change the pillar, to short, this is not from the tiger's mouth to grab food, King Chen is easy to provoke, at that time he changed his face, took him to prison, tortured, a few days this surnamed Jin died whine, kicked his legs to death! Prince Chen was unrelieved of his hatred in his heart, and ordered someone to hang his corpse here to show the public. ”

The young man sighed, shook his head and said: "As the saying goes, 'one death is a hundred', this person should be considered to be buried in the earth when he dies, what is the point of doing this!"

The poor said sourly: "Listen to your words, you know that you are not a local!"

The young man wondered, "Oh!

The poor said sourly: "There is a saying in Hongdu City, 'It is better to provoke the king of Yama than to provoke the king of Hongdu.'" The king of Hades only hooks the soul, and the king of Chen urges and peels the skin".

When the young man heard this, he sighed and said, "Now that the powerful are in power, the jackals are in charge, and the emperor only knows the joy of every day, and he sees the great rivers and mountains, and if he continues like this, he is afraid that the country will be ruined." ”

When the poor sour saw him say such a rebellious remark, he couldn't help but change color in fright, and hurriedly said: "Let's only sweep the snow in front of our own house, and don't care about the frost on the tiles of others', and we should eat two more cups of tea and not talk about politics." ”

When the young man heard this, he smiled and said: "Yes, yes

These conversations were heard word by word by a man in green sitting in the corner, his eyebrows were clear and his skin was pink, and he was Liu Shuyan who was dressed as a man. At this time, he was full of remorse, and his eyes were full of tears.

At this time, two more people came up the stairs, and the one in front was a young man about twenty years old, wearing a plain silk gown, with a jade pendant hanging from his waist, and his appearance was chic; The one in the back wore a square scarf on his head, a bronze silk robe, and a handful of goatees, and his appearance was refined, and the two of them knew at a glance that they were rich people. The two chose a corner by the window and sat down, and the shopkeeper was full of smiles, followed closely behind, running flattering and serving diligently.

When Liu Shuyan saw the two figures, she only felt very familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere, so she secretly observed them at the moment.

The two asked for a pot of tea and a few side dishes, sat by the window, looked out the window with their eyes, looked at it for a long time, and then glanced at the people upstairs and talked in a low voice.

I only heard the young man say in a whisper: "Master Yan, we have been here for a few days, and we have bought musk, borneol and other spices, and for three or four days, we have been observing everywhere like this every day, can we do it now?"

The old man said: "Wait a minute, let's observe the stepping point in the past few days, I see that Hongdu City's inspection and defense are strict, if we act rashly, not only can we not save the old man, but even we have to take it ourselves, we must repeatedly consider and plan before acting!"

The young man said, "It's just that I look at my father's body hanging there, and I feel sad!"

The old man sighed and said: "What do I have to say, I can't wait to pick up Zhu Chenhao's dog thief with cramps and skin, crush bones and ashes to relieve my hatred, but we are weak now, we must not act arbitrarily, and if we can't bear it, we will make a big plan." We must be calm, and we must not fall for the tricks of this dog thief!"

The young man listened and asked, "Master Yan, how long will we have to wait?"

The old man looked up at the sky and said: "Today is the ninth day of the first month of October, and in a few days it will be the beginning of winter, and now the cold is going south, and the north wind is gradually fierce, you see the broom clouds in the sky, and the green mountains in the distance are wearing hats, and the next three days will be dark without stars and moons, so it is easy to hide, and it will be in the dead of night, just when we start, please wait patiently for two more days." ”

Rong Chengjin listened, nodded and stopped talking.

Although the sound of the conversation between the two was as thin as a mosquito and a fly, it was almost inaudible. But Liu Shuyan has superb internal strength, deaf ears and eyes, and hears everything word for word. I couldn't help but be taken aback, and said secretly: "They are here too!"

It turned out that these two people in disguise were Rong Chengjin and Yan Zhong.
