Jiang Lili thought that the road to Yangzhou should be extremely smooth, but she didn't expect to encounter a few bad things after walking for long.

When I settled in an inn on the post road connecting Suzhou and Yangzhou, I hadn't eaten half a grain of rice before I heard that a gentleman from Liang Shang came to the inn and stole the money and jade ornaments of the guests in the inn.

How many years? This is the first time this has happened.

The innkeeper was so angry that his face turned blue, and he muttered that the short-lived ghost of that family didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and he dared to steal our things, didn't he know that ten years ago Lao Tzu was the leader on this post road?

Listening to the complaints of the guests, the innkeeper had no choice but to search his body one by one.

And Jiang Lili caught up with this encounter.

Ordinary Ke also didn't want to be searched, but he couldn't stop the money from being big, so he had to let the inn Xiaoer's hands rummage over his body and body.

Jiang Lili frowned, thinking that if Xiao Er dared to stretch his pig paws to himself, then he would definitely give him a good look!

But before Jiang Lili could be checked, something happened.

It turned out that there was an inn Xiaoer who was an unserious character, and when he searched for a girl, he couldn't hold back the lust in his heart and secretly rubbed his paws on the girl's plumpness. But who knew that this girl was a pungent character, not at all as gentle as a Jiangnan woman, so she immediately slapped the inn junior and scolded: "Whore, thief! You dare to attack your aunt and grandmother?

Saying that, the girl pulled out the sword from her waist and was about to pierce a hole in this little second-hand, and several men who came with the girl also drew out their sword weapons on the spot, and the momentum was violent.

Where has Xiao Er ever seen such a battle? He was so frightened that he fell to the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy, "Grandma, the villain will never dare anymore, never again!"

If the apology is useful, it must not be in the way of the government, where can this girl listen to it? When he was about to stab down with a sword, the innkeeper hurriedly ran over to intercede with the little er, first saying that the little two had been an orphan since he was a child, extremely pitiful, and then saying that the little two were a fool and didn't know the difference between men and women, so he committed such an unintentional mistake, and finally said that there was an eighty-year-old grandmother who was paralyzed in bed at the house, and if he killed the little two, there would be no one to support him.

The plea was full of flaws, and she even got some sympathy from the spicy girl. When the innkeeper saw that there was a play, he made another appearance to show these guests, first scolded the little two, and then exempted the girl and her companions from the accommodation and meal money, which made these guests take back their swords.

This matter is settled, but what about finding a thief?

Although the guests who came and went were a little resistant to the body search, they were also obedient, after all, it was not a trivial matter for dozens of guests to steal their money. But when such a thing happened at this time, the man was just fine, but where was the woman willing to search these little two again?

The body search here could not go on, and the guests who had stolen the money over there were complaining loudly, which made the innkeeper sweat profusely! If it was only the money that was stolen, it would be better to say that the innkeeper could compensate for his savings for so many years, but there were still two guests who said that the heirloom treasure in their family had been stolen, and it had nothing to do with the money.

I don't know if this is true or not, but the innkeeper clearly didn't believe it, and thought to himself, since it was an heirloom, where could he bring it out for you?

But there is no way, the innkeeper is so anxious that he wants to scold his mother, and he really wants to pull out a knife and chop off the little two of the salty pig hand!

Grandmother

yes, haven't you ever seen a woman?!

But in the end, it was a drama, Jiang Lili slowly ate the meal and threw the money on the table and was about to leave, but the innkeeper stopped in front of Jiang Lili and said that no one was allowed to leave until the thief was found!

Jiang Lili was a little annoyed, and said in her heart, what do you have to do with me looking for a thief?

Ignoring the boss, when he turned around and was about to walk out of the door, a man suddenly pointed at Jiang Lili and shouted: "Look! This person is in such a hurry to leave! He must be the thief!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were wrong when they looked at Jiang Lili. Slightly changing positions, all blocked Jiang Lili's way.

Jiang Lili didn't like it in her heart, snorted coldly, pulled out her knife and pointed at the man who said this, "You dare to say it again?!"

The man was also not afraid of things, so he stiffened his neck and said, "Look, you can't hide it! You still want to kill people and kill people? I think you are the thief!"

Jiang Lili didn't speak again, and rushed forward directly to slash this man with a knife!

The man didn't expect Jiang Lili to be so decisive, nor did he expect that none of the seven or eight martial artists in the inn could stop Jiang Lili for half a point. But even if this man was agile, he turned around and dodged Jiang Lili's knife when he was defenseless, but the second knife was helpless, and Jiang Lili cut his clothes with a knife when he couldn't dodge.

Unexpectedly, after the knife cut through the man's clothes, a white bead fell from the man's clothes.

Someone in the inn was well-informed, pointed to this bead and shouted in surprise: "Isn't this the night pearl stolen from a large family in Suzhou?

Now the others looked at the man and it was wrong, and they rushed forward to hold the man down, and two or three more people opened the man's package, and found that it was the whole package of money taels!

"So you're the thief!"

"It's not me! it's not me!" the man wanted to cry without tears.

The innkeeper finally breathed a sigh of relief, took out a rag and wiped the sweat on his head, and let the few guests who had lost their money go up to look for their money.

Just as he was about to go back to his room to take a sip of tea, another man frowned and said, "Why don't you have my heirloom jade pendant?"

The innkeeper felt a thrill in his heart, thinking to himself that this was still true?

A guest who had lost two taels of money whispered to the man: "What kind of heirloom jade pendant do you care? There are so many taels of money here, enough to buy you seventeen or eighteen, and taking more money is the right way." ”

But I didn't expect this man to be very stubborn, "No, this heirloom jade pendant was handed down by my ancestors, and it is to be handed over to the younger generations by hand, and it can't be lost!"

Damn, this isn't the end of it?

The innkeeper was angry, pulled up the bench and smashed it on the thief, "Lao Tzu Ri, your mother's stinky son, tell me quickly, did you hide other people's heirloom jade pendants? Where are you hiding? If you don't say Lao Tzu, I'll kill you!"

The thief who was pinned to the ground cried and howled, "I really didn't steal, I really didn't steal?!"

The innkeeper only thought that the man who had lost the heirloom jade pendant was actually just lying, and when he saw the little second war who had previously groped his pig's hand, he took out a jade pendant tremblingly.

The innkeeper was immediately dumbfounded.

It turned out that Xiao Er was so frightened when he saw the miserable appearance of the thief that he couldn't stand it, so he had to admit that he took advantage of the time to clean the room to take the guest's things.

Later, I learned that the man who was beaten really didn't steal the things in the inn, he was originally a thief wandering in Suzhou, and was passed by the government

After the arrest, he fled to Yangzhou to live, ready to steal the objects in his hands one by one, and then washed his hands in the golden basin, and felt at ease to be an idle man.

But how did he know that such a thing would happen in this inn? Originally, when he searched his body, he was very frightened, for fear that the contents of his package would be searched. Later, although the guests were too resistant to do so, they still couldn't get out of the inn! If they couldn't find out the real thief after half a day, they would definitely have to report to the government. By then, I'll be miserable!

So the man had no choice but to pour the disaster on Jiang Lili's head, thinking of using his own skills to escape from the chaos, but who knew that he had directly planted a heel on Jiang Lili?

It's unlucky enough, and it's only a conversation and joke for the people in this inn.

After this delay, it was already past noon, and he was afraid that he would not be able to find the inn at night after continuing to walk, so Jiang Lili stayed at the inn for one night.

In the early morning of the next day, there was another bad thing.

It turned out that the pungent girl admired Jiang Lili's skills very much, and when she got up early to practice swords, she saw Jiang Lili practicing knives in the courtyard, and when Jiang Lili finished practicing knives, she pestered Jiang Lili to ask him where he was from, and if he could count her as one.

Jiang Lili didn't want to pay attention to this person, but she was so entangled by this girl that she couldn't do anything, so she left the name of Fuhu Mountain and hurried to get into the carriage and drive away.

Cheng'an Imperial City, in the Jingwei Pavilion.

Yao Qinghe sat opposite Emperor Wen of Sui.

Yao Qinghe frowned, gently rubbing the teacup, and Emperor Wen of Sui did not bother.

After a long time, Yao Qinghe sighed, "This is a great conspiracy. ”

"What kind of conspiracy?" Emperor Wen of Sui hurriedly asked, "Can it be harmful to the Great Sui?"

Yao Qinghe nodded.

Emperor Wen of Sui's face became solemn, "I also ask the national scholar to inform me that I will follow what the national scholar said, and stop all turbulence and bud it!"

Yao Qinghe smiled, "Since it is a conspiracy, it can't be stopped, you just need to find the key to it, and you can break it yourself." ”

Emperor Wen of Sui was a little stunned, "But it still needs to be dispatched, how to deploy, how to march?"

"I actually already know what is at stake, but I still can't figure it out, why did the news that His Royal Highness the King of Nanyang want to kill the young son of Western Chu spread all over the country? It stands to reason that this news should be as hidden as possible, is it because he is sure that the young son of Western Chu will definitely die? What is he relying on?" Yao Qinghe muttered.

Emperor Wen of Sui also frowned, "The key is here?"

"That's right, so the first thing we have to ensure is that the young son of Xichu can't die!"

Emperor Wen of Sui replied: "But I know the young son of Xichu, that person is not a character who can be slaughtered by others, and at this time, I am afraid that he has also received the news, how can he still ask others to succeed?"

Yao Qinghe shook his head, thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Although the general trend of the world is like this, we have to do some personnel, otherwise we will change our course if we are afraid that the general trend will not get used to it!"

"I understand," but after saying this, Emperor Wen Sui's face was a little embarrassed, "But, after all, it's my imperial brother's eldest son... ”

Yao Qinghe replied: "It will be up to Your Majesty to weigh the pros and cons." ”

Emperor Wen of Sui snorted.

Yao Qinghe fell into contemplation again, and after a long time, he suddenly stood up, ignored Emperor Sui Wenhuang, and walked straight into the cabinet.

Sui Wenhuang snorted coldly, "It's not big, it's not small!"

After Yao Qinghe entered the cabinet, he found Su Su who was dozing off, and asked with a smile: "You know Jiang Lili, right?" ”

Su Su trembled and nodded in a daze.
