The sunlight pressed down viciously, and the air in the entire capital seemed to be scuffling together. Although the enthusiasm of the pedestrians on the streets is still the same as usual, warm and busy, like gunpowder filling it, forming a powerful booster to promote the operation of the city. The huge imperial city is among them, and it occupies half of the entire city, and it is the huge production place of these gunpowders.

On a normal day, the inn's second child shouted a few masters to walk slowly, the street vendors were still shouting at the top of their voices, and the pedestrians came and went from time to time to see what new things were in the shops on the street...... However, the only difference happened. I don't know where a "woman" came out. It is not right to say that it is a woman, except for the red satin women's dress she wears and a white fan embroidered with mandarin ducks in her hand, there is no other place that shows feminine characteristics. The most important thing is that she has a chin and a long beard. The whole street looked at "her", but it was surprisingly quiet, the atmosphere was surprisingly depressing, and most people couldn't help but laugh when they saw a woman like this, but no one laughed. When I looked closely, I found that there was a huge scar on the woman's face, I don't know if it was a burn or a cut, or both, this scar almost covered half of her face, and on top of the scar was a child, a child who smiled very happily, an ordinary child. The child's neck is tattooed in the most obvious part of the scar, and the injured flesh is like a machete, cutting the head and body severely. In addition, the person's face is smiling, and the feeling of cutting is even more obvious when laughing, and the whole face looks miserable and ghostly.

The whole street was thrown into an inexplicable depression because of this "woman", and almost everyone looked at her, or more accurately, into her face. There seemed to be an inexplicable aura on her body, suppressing everyone around her. The silence was finally broken, and a beggar on the side of the road suddenly laughed. An old beggar dressed in tatters, ordinary people, he laughed sharply, a clear sneer, but the woman didn't care, as if she didn't notice his presence. In fact, she may not have paid attention to the existence of the whole street at all, because the whole street was laughing. It's just that some of the laughter seems extra forced. In order to calm their emotions, people always do something to deceive themselves at the time, but it seems to be extremely useful, and there are a few people who can be like beggars who don't care about anything and are chic and debauched.

There is a large gate on this street, which is the most famous restaurant in the whole capital - Donghua Building, if the capital mentions, it can be said that everyone knows and everyone knows. Almost all of the dignitaries in the capital, the wandering sons, or the people with good pomp and good face will go to Donghua Tower to sit and sit on something. In fact, this building is no different from other restaurants, the only difference is that Donghua Building is large, but there are few single rooms, and the first floor is not full of tables and chairs like other restaurants, on the contrary, there is no table and chairs. Only the second and third floors do business, but the second and third floors are counted together, and there are less than 10 single rooms, but each is particularly large, which can accommodate three tables for a total of 36 people to eat at the same time. So much so that the single room in Donghua Building is extremely expensive, and a private room will definitely not be able to cover a hundred taels of silver in a day. And it's useless to have money, it's not good to have power, the boss of Donghua Building only looks at the order, not the face, pays the bill first and has a house, and the later even the emperor will not let a point.

The woman kept walking, and the direction she walked was getting closer and closer to Donghua Building, and the laughter in the crowd almost followed her, and followed the beggar. The beggar followed the woman, happy wherever she went, and laughed wherever she watched the excitement, and the woman suddenly stopped when she walked in front of Donghua Tower. Then the laughter stopped here, and after a while, almost all at the same time. A man came out of Donghua Building, a scholar dressed in ordinary clothes, and this scholar was followed by two people, both armed with swords. But just as the scholar walked to the railing, the woman made a move, and the scholar fell down in response, and the swordsman behind him drew his sword almost at the same time as the scholar fell, jumped up, and the woman's strange head also fell to the ground not long after.

"But is there anything wrong?" asked the young man.

"No, no, it's big. A middle-aged man with a sword said. "If this is a simple murder, there is nothing wrong with it, but it is very wrong to kill different people. ”

The young man took a sip of tea and played with his teacup. "If you kill people in the imperial city, you can work for thousands of miles to chase souls, I'm afraid there will be no one else except the emperor."

"It is worthy of being a famous little hungry wolf in the world, and you can guess it in one sentence. Mo smiled worriedly. "But that's only half the story. As he spoke, the middle-aged man stroked his beard.

"Then dare you ask which half is right and what half is wrong?" said the young man laughed.

"That's right, naturally I killed the emperor. "Could it be that the woman really killed the emperor?" the young man asked, frowning.

Mo was worried and said: "Why did you little hungry wolf suddenly care about the emperor." ”

"I'm not concerned, I'm afraid that the emperor will die, and when the new emperor ascends the throne, he will release my old friends, and then my life will be difficult. The young man said. As he spoke, he poured a cup of tea by the way.

Don't worry about suddenly looking up to the sky and laughing. "It turns out that you little wolf cub is still afraid of this, I thought there was nothing in the world that you were afraid of. ”

The young man said: "People always have to be afraid of something to live like a person, if they are not afraid of anything, wouldn't it be lawless, I think I am afraid of two things in this world, one is to go to the land of fireworks and willows and find that I didn't bring enough silver, and the other is that the emperor is dead." ”

Mo Annoyance smiled even more happily. "But I'm here today to tell you the good news, the emperor didn't die, because I was on the side, I was the one who killed the woman, and it was the emperor's younger brother, the third prince, who died. ”

"Are you on the side?" said the young man.

"Yes, I was on the sidelines. Don't worry.

"Then I can't afford it. The young man threw away his teacup and turned to leave, but the cup landed firmly on the table, and the cup was full of tea. "I don't drink your tea, forgive me for spending a lot of time, I can't afford to drink your terrible tea. ”

Don't worry about it, but rushed to the front of the flowers. "Didn't I have no choice but to ask you for help. Hua Mantian said: "Someone killed the third prince in front of you, and you were on the side but didn't stop it, which means that the martial arts of the person who came must be extremely high, maybe above me." In addition, the fact that people are already dead and still need my help means that this matter is definitely not over. ”

Don't worry about pulling Hua Mantian to the side of the original table and sit down, "If you want to talk about this, there are indeed other discrepancies, it depends on whether you are willing to help me, I am guilty of meritorious service this time, if I can't find out the reason, my head will definitely fall to the ground." Mo took a breath. "You and I have been friends for many years, I know that this matter is dangerous, if you refuse to help me, I will not stop you. It's just that I still don't understand a few questions, and I want you to help me check, and after checking, I promise that I have nothing to do with you. ”

Hua Mantian smiled. "What's the problem?"

Mo said worriedly: "There is a later story on this matter. ”

Hua Mantian said: "What is the afterword?"
