The next day, when Shen You, Wu Shuang came to the east gate of Taishi's Mansion. Opposite here is a bustling street market, with its silk and satin shops bustling with rice and noodles, steaming steamers for passers-by, and beside it is a pork shop with half of the freshly broken pork on the butcher's table, attracting three or four customers with baskets of meat, including a woman with a headscarf and a basket of freshly bought celery and garlic sprouts. They were all looking at the young butcher, bowing his head and dragging his knife, cutting off the piece of pork he liked. Wu Shuang quietly browsed everything on the street, and he suddenly felt that life was so beautiful!

At this moment, there was a group of officers and soldiers in the center of the street at the back, they were holding guns and hanging knives in front of the road, and a gorgeous sedan chair was slowly followed behind the team. When the people in the street saw this, they were surprised, nervous, and frightened, and they all flashed to both sides of the street to give way.

Wu Shuang thought to himself, such a big showman, it must be that Xu Taishi retreated from the dynasty and returned home! Therefore, he was also ready to go in and visit Xu Taishi. However, Li Shilang had not yet arrived, and he had to wait for him to go in before he could convince Xu Taishi of what they said. He looked back at the north and south streets, but there was no shadow of a sedan chair or carriage coming, so he had to continue to wait!

Time passed, but Wu Shuang still did not wait for Li Chunsheng's arrival, he began to be a little anxious, and he began to ask himself in his heart: Could this be a lie by Li Chunsheng? Probably not! He explained to himself that Li Shilang's words yesterday were so sincere, he did not look like a liar at all.

At this moment, a carriage came in a hurry in the middle of the street, and Wu Shuang thought to himself, this time it should be Li Shilang coming! Sure enough, the carriage stopped abruptly in front of him, and Li Shilang lifted the curtain and said to him:

"Wu Shaoxia, I've kept you waiting! We'll go to the Taishi now to explain the reason!" he said, he lowered the curtains, pushed the door and stepped out of the carriage.

They also bowed politely to each other, and Wu Shuang said:

"After all, Lord Li has official business, so the grass people may as well wait a little longer!"

"Okay, then we'll go and see Master Taishi now. Li Chunsheng said, taking the lead towards the east gate of the Taishi Mansion.

When he came to the east gate, Li Shilang suddenly stopped again, saluted Wu Shuangluo and said:

"Wu Shaoxia, after all, you and Taishi Xu have not been in contact yet, I am afraid it is a little inappropriate to go in rashly like this, why don't you temporarily wronged you wait at the door for a while, wait for me to go in first to say hello to Taishi Xu, explain the situation, and then come to invite you, I don't know what the respect is?"

Wu Shuang raised his hand and returned the salute and said:

"Lord Li is thoughtful, and the grass people are waiting!" So, after explaining his intention to the doorman, he saw Li Shilang hurriedly enter the Taishi's Mansion.

Taishi's Mansion is really extraordinary, a wide stone road leads directly to the stone steps in front of the mansion, the road is lined with flowers, the rockery is shaded, the fish pond pavilion is interspersed; the trees are in rows, the pavilion and the rockery are interesting, the fish pond echoes with the flowers, the high-rise buildings are connected with the building, and everywhere is neatly and neatly, constituting an extraordinary mansion manor.

At this moment, a middle-aged domestic servant wearing a hat and a green coat ran to the door, saw the young man in a white robe and carrying a black sheath sword outside the gate, and respectfully asked:

"Your Excellency, but Wu Shuang and Wu Shaoxia?"

Wu Shuang raised his sword and clenched his fist and saluted and said:

"It's under you, I don't know what advice my brother has?"

"My master asks you to speak inside!"

"Please lead the way!"

So, Wu Shuang followed the servant straight to the bottom of the stone steps of the Taishi Mansion, but the servant did not go up the stone steps, but followed a stone path on the right side of the stone steps, passed through a small garden, and led Wu Shuang into a circular courtyard gate; there are also a few houses here, but they are not as grand as the front ones, but they are much more luxurious than ordinary people's houses. They still did not enter the main house in this small courtyard, but walked through a winding rockery path and came to a few small hugging buildings in front of a row of green bamboos. The slave pushed straight away from the people in the middle room, and said to Wu Shuang:

"Wu Shaoxia, let's have a cup of tea in it first, sit down for a while, our Taishi and Master Li will come later!" As he spoke, he grabbed a pot of hot tea that had just been prepared on the table, poured a cup of hot tea for Wu Shuang, and withdrew.

While sipping the fragrant tea, Wu Shuang took a cursory look at the furnishings in this small living room. The small living room is square in shape, with the east side being the front, and there is a table on it, with some picture scrolls, pen inkstones and an embedded Lantian jade. Behind the chairs, placed side by side, two large vases about five steps apart, with a few green bamboos painted on the bottle, a small stream flowing through a cluster of stones, and a sentence written in the idle place: peace is a blessing; on the body of the other bottle, several lifelike goldfish are drawn, and a sentence is also written in the margin: peace and prosperity.

Behind it, there is a large carved interstitial, presumably behind which there is a back door in and out. Under the south window of this living room, there are two large high-backed chairs lined up along the way, with a small table in the middle and a large rectangular mahogany coffee table in front. The small living room is neatly furnished, reflecting the simple and quiet habits of the owner. He thought that this should be a heart-nourishing pavilion in the Taishi's spare time.

At this moment, he faintly felt that his mind was a little hazy, and his eyes were a little dizzy, but he was very sober in his heart, and he realized that this must be an article in the tea he had just drunk! Thinking of this, he was shocked, and asked in his heart: How can even Taishi Xu, who has always been highly respected, use such despicable and shameless means? He suddenly heard someone talking in the corridor outside, and there was a sound of footsteps gradually walking along the corridor, so he tried to grasp the long sword on the table, but he was surprised to find that he was actually weak!

Suddenly, the door was pushed open with a bang, and Wu Shuang saw Xu Taishi and Li Shilang standing at the door, and they were followed by several menacing sergeants. Wu Shuang reluctantly lifted his sword, pointed at them and said:

"Despicable, it turns out that you poisoned the tea!"

"This is called a soldier who does not tire of deceit!" Li Chunsheng said, "Let the thief die!"

As he spoke, he asked Mrs. Xu respectfully:

"Eun-sang, what are we going to do with this thief?"

"Simon will be beheaded tomorrow at noon!"

"Humble command!"

Wu Shuang couldn't support it anymore, and with a bang, he fell to the ground!

Several sergeants quickly ran over, lifted him from the ground, and carried him out of the door.

Seeing Wu Shuang being dragged out of the courtyard by several sergeants, Xu Taishi said leisurely:

"Stinky boy, you dare to come to the door to propose marriage! ”

It turned out that this was all Li Chunsheng's trick.

As soon as he entered the door just now, he found Taishi Xu and said:

"Master Taishi, please forgive your sins!"

"What's the matter?"

"Humble position, just now I went home from the dynasty, and I was held hostage by Wu Shuang on the way!"

"How!" asked the Grand Master in surprise.

"He asked me to go to the Enxiang's house to propose, saying that he had already discussed it with the third lady of the house, and he only waited for a month for the old man to propose, and this matter was done!"

"Therefore, the lowly office has to come and ask for the mercy of the minister!"

"Then where is Wu Shuang now?" Taishi was furious.

"He's right outside the door!"

"Stinky boy, dare to humiliate this mansion!"

Li Chunsheng lowered his head and raised his eyes, paying close attention to the changes in the Taishi's expression, and when he saw that the time was ripe, he asked tentatively:

"Please, please calm your anger!

"How can this thief be caught?" the Grand Master asked him rhetorically.

"I have an idea, I don't know if I should talk about it or not!"

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

So, he presented this good idea to the Grand Master. (To be continued.) )
