Chapter Forty-Eight: Seven Peerless Shadow Steps
Liu Xu took a step and walked towards the courtyard of the West Chamber.
That was Peiyu's residence.
Approaching the courtyard, the guards protecting Peiyu clasped their fists and saluted.
It's the height of spring, and the West Garden is beautiful.
Pavilions and pavilions, flowers and plants attic, goose warm stone paving, peach blossoms in the middle of the road.
Liu Xu raised his head, looked through it at a glance, and saw that the woman in the pink dress was lazy, her chin was knocking on her jade hand, and the jade hand was padding the stone fence, feeding the spirit pigeon.
The spirit pigeon was very white, and the clean feathers were like pure yarn, and the woman only looked at it, and her eyes were dull.
Liu Xu approached and called, "Miss Peiyu!"
Belch?
The woman was suddenly stunned, thinking that she had misheard and thought it was a fantasy, but after all, she was lying on the stone fence, her chin still smashing her jade hand, unmoved.
This made Liu Xu close to him.
From behind, Liu Xu patted the woman and said, "Miss Peiyu." ”
This sound, listening to the reality, the woman was stunned.
So he got up, wiped his chin with the back of his little hand, and made a formal gesture.
Liu Xu was amused by this woman's seriousness for a moment.
So he smiled and asked, "This is your residence, you can pose whatever you want, why care about others?"
"That's not going to work!" said the woman, coquettishly.
Liu Xu smiled, and finally said: "I have something to borrow, I want to borrow your spirit pigeon." ”
"Oh!" the woman was innocent and adorable.
Liu Xu smiled.
Cuckoo...
I saw that the next moment, the woman's lips did not move, and there was a sudden sound in her throat, and there was a cooing sound from time to time.
As soon as they heard this, the three spirit doves immediately fluttered their white wings and flew to the stone fence.
The woman hugged one, stroked the head of the spirit pigeon, and handed it over lightly.
Liu Xu was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "When did you train you?"
The woman's eyebrows and eyes were full of dazzles, and the corners of her mouth smiled, but she didn't speak.
Liu Xu handed over the creed and said, "Tie it up by you! I will look for you when I deliver the letter in the future." ”
"Good!" replied earnestly.
At the same moment, the lips smiled, like a bloom in the heyday.
Outside the pavilion, the sun is shining.
Liu Xu turned his head and left.
Pei Yu behind him said: "Childe, can you come back early for dinner today?"
Liu Xu's footsteps stopped for a moment, and he didn't speak.
After returning to the torture hall in a short time, the cases of various levels and sizes have been stacked like a mountain in the past two days.
Liu Xu placed Mo Feng, buried his head, and flipped the books one by one and sorted out the copywriting.
It wasn't until noon that less than one-third of them were processed.
At this time, the guard at the gate reported in.
Liu Xu raised his head and asked what was the matter.
The guard saluted and said, "There is a person waiting outside the gate of the mansion, saying that he wants to see your lordship." ”
"Who?" asked Liu Xu casually.
"But a messenger!"
"Just let him deliver the letter. Liu Xu said.
But the man said, "He will not bring out the letter until he sees the adult." ”
Oh?...
Liu Xu was suddenly stunned, and immediately said, "Let him in." ”
"Yes!" the guard retreated.
Not long after, a mortal middle-aged man entered the envoy's hall.
Liu Xu asked directly, "Who are you delivering the message for?"
"The villain's surname is Yang, and he is from the northwest, thousands of miles away. The middle-aged man said.
"The people of the King of Qingyang!" Liu Xu was stunned.
But the next moment, he said quietly: "What about the letter?"
"The villain is the faith!" said the man.
Forehead?
Liu Xu was stunned, and after thinking for a moment, Fang said: "Then your king, what did you say?"
"The king of villains did not let the villain talk, only let the villain ask. ”
Scold!
For a moment, Liu Xu laughed angrily.
Passing through three mountains and five mountains, rivers and lakes, just to ask a few words, isn't it interesting?
"Okay, you can ask!" Liu Xu put down the pen in his hand and straightened up.
"First sentence, my king asked me to ask you, when he was a child, he personally taught you a seven-peer gift, do you remember?"
When this sentence came out, Liu Xu was taken aback.
Thousands of miles away, why did you ask about your childhood?
Liu Xu pondered it deeply, and tried his best to recall that during the three years of Jingxin Temple, he had specially studied the words and deeds of the prince of Qingyang.
Therefore, after a while, Fang said with a serious expression: "Remember!"
"In the second sentence, my king asked me to ask you, who wrote this fu?"
Liu Xu was suddenly stunned.
Seven unique endowments, seven paragraphs throughout, seven sentences in each paragraph, describe the form of hundreds of beasts and green plants, and the author is not indicated. And since reading the article, there has been no such chapter among the famous people I know.
But at this moment, the middle-aged man in front of him looked plain, waiting for a reply.
Liu Xu thought for a moment, and finally tried to say: "Is it from your king?!"
The middle-aged man didn't say right or wrong, but continued: "In the third sentence, my king asked me to ask you, have you ever heard of Lianying Jue?"
"Lianyingjue?" Liu Xu muttered to himself, becoming more and more confused, not knowing the true meaning.
But it was not hidden, and the next moment Liu Xu said straightforwardly: "Even the shadow trick is spread in the rivers and lakes, although the reputation is quite good, but it is not in the eyes of the martial king. ”
"But my king said that Lianying Jue has a set of mental tricks that are unique, and it is exactly the same as his set of footwork!" said the middle-aged man.
"Seven Peerless Shadow Steps, do you mean Seven Peerless Shadow Steps?" Liu Xu immediately groaned in shock.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man clasped his fists and saluted: "The letter has been brought, and the subordinates will turn back." ”
Liu Xu was confused in his heart and couldn't calm down for a long time.
It turned out that the Seven Absolute Shadow Steps, which he had been unable to read for a long time, were created with the Seven Absolute Blessings and Shadow Tricks that he could dictate in detail.
How can he not tremble?
Watching the middle-aged man leave, Liu Xu got up and sent guards to the door to summon Qiu Feng.
But I occasionally heard the noise outside the courtyard.
But a moment later, Qiu Feng came in sweating profusely and recklessly.
"What's going on outside?" asked Liu Xu casually.
Qiu Feng suddenly squirmed.
Forehead?
Qiu Feng has always been straightforward, and seeing his state, Liu Xu asked again, "What happened outside?"
But Qiu Feng stood with his head down, sweating on his forehead, but he didn't speak.
Liu Xu felt that something was happening, so he walked out of the envoy's hall with Mo Feng in his hand.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard even more noise.
Liu Xu came in steps, and saw that Guan Han was only standing on one side, and all the government soldiers were three layers inside and outside, besieging Moyu.
And still shouting.
Liu Xu was angry.
Stepping forward, he shouted angrily, "What happened?"
More than 200 government soldiers stood all over the courtyard, and they were shocked by this sound, and they all looked at it.
At this time, Guan Han walked over quickly, hugged his fists and said, "Boss, our government soldiers' Fengyin has been detained again this month!"
"What do you mean this month's has been detained again?
At this time, Qiu Feng came over, walked to him, and said aggrievedly: "Today, I and the Mo Ling envoy received the subordinate order Si Lu, and the head of the three divisions stopped it on the grounds that the treasury official money was not sold and postponed to next month. But where is the official silver not sold, it also belongs to the criminal department, and Jingyuan's government soldiers have all received the silver one by one!"
"Not only this month, but also last month, the government soldiers' money has never been issued. Guan Han also called himself Qu.
Looking at the two hundred soldiers, begging for silver, they couldn't stop shouting at this time, listening to Qiu Feng and Guan Han, they were reluctant to speak, and their tone of aggrieved voice. Liu Xu bit his lip, and suddenly became angry in his heart.
The same part belongs to the subordinate order department, Jing Yuan's government soldiers only guard the palace gate, and a murder case is not handled, and the moon is in hand.
But his subordinates trained hard day and day, patrolling the streets morning and evening, arresting criminals, and licking blood from the knife.
However, Fengyin was detained for two months in succession.
Can Liu Xuyan not be angry?
Needless to say, this matter must have been instructed by Jing Yuan.
There is no one to support him, and the treasury of the small money manager, even if he is in charge, will never dare!
Liu Xu became more and more angry in his heart.
From the assassination of Wei Qingshan in the restaurant, from the second assassination to the interference in the criminal case, from the Guangling Confucianism to the current incident.
Every time he takes a step back, it will cause Jing Yuan to gain an inch, and this time, Liu Xu decided not to retreat.
If the positive means can't solve the problem, then he doesn't mind casting a secret hand.
The next moment, Liu Xu held Mo Feng and walked towards the center under the gaze of the crowd.
Until he came to the surrounded Mo Yu, he said: "Fengyin is detained by the head of the treasury, even if you besiege the Mo Ling Envoy, it will be useless." If you can trust this sword in my Mei Qinghan's hand, I will use Mo Feng to prove that even if I loot the treasury today, I will definitely take you to ask for an explanation! It is already noon, and when everyone has eaten their stomachs, I will take you to the bank treasury of the Criminal Department. ”
Now that this has been said, all the government soldiers are silent.
At this time, Guan Han took a step forward and gave an order: "Everyone will listen to the order, and the team will be reunited!"
"Yes!" he didn't dare to disobey, and he immediately ordered under the scorching sun.
In just a moment, the scattered and noisy government soldiers, led by the catcher, turned into a phalanx.
Whew!Whew!
Walking and moving, walking in unison, all the soldiers entered the backyard to eat.
Liu Xu turned his face, gently touched Mo Yu's shoulder and said, "Let Mo Ling be wronged." ”
Mo Yuwen was weak, besieged by the government soldiers, and the scorching sun was on his head, and he almost fainted.
But seeing Liu Xu coming to help, Mo Yu was ashamed and didn't dare to accept it, and saluted: "It's the incompetence of his subordinates!"
"The head of the third division intends to deduct it, what does it have to do with you?
Mo Yu was grateful and bowed and retreated.
Liu Xu walked towards Guan Han and Qiu Feng, and said, "Why didn't you see Ye Yu?"
Asking such a question, Qiu Feng and the others also felt strange in their hearts.
But before the words were finished, a person hurriedly came in at the door of the house.
Isn't it Ye Yu?
"Boss?!" approached, Ye Yu called.
"But what happened again?" asked Liu Xu.
"Zhan Feng was beaten in Bai Jinlou! If you don't think about it, if you don't fear your name, people won't be able to come back. At this time, the injury is not light, and he is being treated in the east of the street!" Ye Yu said.
"What did you say, Zhanfeng was beaten?!" After saying this, Qiu Feng was the first to be furious.
"Tell me in detail, what happened?" asked Liu Xu in a calm tone.
"After Zhan Feng arrived at Baijin Building, he was beaten up by the deacon before he saw the landlord!" Ye Yu replied.
"Have you ever been injured?" asked Liu Xu Xun again.
"There was a sword in the right shoulder, and the sword mark was quite deep, but it should not be life-threatening. ”
Liu Xu bit his mouth, his face angry.
It can be said that the old anger has not disappeared, and the new fire has risen.
Therefore, he immediately ordered: "Guan Han, you stay here, stabilize them first, and wait for me to come back." ”
"Yes!" Guan Han saluted.
"Qiu Feng, prepare the horse!Ye Yu, take the beaten government soldiers, follow me to the pear orchard for identification!"
"Yes!" the two clasped their fists.
After a while, he stepped to the door of the mansion, and Qiu Feng raised his whip.
Liu Xu held Mo Feng in his hand and turned over on his horse.
Drive!
With a soft drink, he took the lead in running away.
It is a white-clothed angry horse, with a long wind of ink swords, galloping through the Eastern Imperial City.
Qiu Feng chased after him, and walked side by side after a while.
Ye Yu set off and went to the east of the street to lead the government soldiers.
