Chapter 12 I don't know Mount Tai
Wanchun Garden.
"Your Excellency has been assassinated!" the two guards rushed out of the lobby, looking terrified. Earlier, the two of them escorted the adult into the room and stationed outside the door of the guest room, but the mysterious assassin easily restrained the acupoint, and watched the adult being assassinated, unable to move and call for help. Now the acupuncture path is self-explanatory, and the two of them are unharmed, but the adults died tragically in the "boudoir". In such a situation, the crime of dereliction of duty is inevitable, and I am afraid that such a statement will not be credible, and if it is suspected of being an accomplice, it will be a loss of head! When they think of this, they are already terrified.
Hearing their exclamations, eight sedan chairmen downstairs and more than a dozen attendants with knives rushed up, although these sedan chair men were coolies, but in fact they were all bodyguards of adults.
More than 20 people gathered together and searched several times in the room where the adult was assassinated, and after not finding anything, they sent two palanquin men to the county government to report the county order.
When the county magistrate received the report, he was also frightened, and immediately summoned all the officials and rushed to Wanchun Garden, the place where the crime occurred.
They ran wildly, and when they passed around the corner, they almost collided with a palanquin. The sedan chair was very luxurious, the sedan chair bearer carried had thick arms and strong legs, and the entourage behind him also looked sturdy. If it is placed on weekdays, the county magistrate will definitely come forward to ask, if it is a high-ranking official, he must flatter and pat the horse before leaving with peace of mind. Today, however, a high-ranking member of the imperial court who had just arrived in this county was assassinated in a mysterious way! That assassin was so high in martial arts that he was not alarmed when he committed the crime! This could not but make him feel a chill in his heart. Thinking that the black yarn on the top is going to be lost, where can I care about who is sitting in the sedan chair in front of me.
The county commander took a sip, then led everyone around and went straight to Wanchun Garden.
The officials obeyed the order to search Wan Chunyuan carefully, and even turned over the table and cabinets, and went to the room to reveal the tiles, but they could not find a clue. The angry county commander immediately ordered the blockade of Chong'an County, all personnel were not allowed to go out, and those who entered the city had to pass the check, and then the soldiers were divided into several roads and checked one household by one along Chong'an Street.
The entrance of Yunluo Pavilion where Shenjian Villa stayed.
Several officials were knocking on the door, causing everyone in the Excalibur Villa to be vigilant. When the big housekeeper went downstairs to visit, Xiao Er was opening the door to negotiate. Hearing the official request to search the house from afar, the chief housekeeper stepped forward with an arrow, pulled back Xiao Er, and couldn't help but "snap" the door shut.
Don't say that it is these little servants, on the way to escort treasures on weekdays, even if they encounter officers and soldiers to search, as long as the owner Xiang Chengtian is silent, the Zhuang people will not bird them at all. This is the arrogance of Shenjian Villa -- the first village in the world! This arrogance comes from the trust of the imperial court, and it is also known to the whole world that the Holy Lord and the owner of Xiang Zhuang are brothers. If not, how could the world's Qibao Lotus Mirror be escorted by them?
The official of Chong'an County was blind-eyed and couldn't recognize the outfit of Shenjian Villa, so in front of the Yunluo Pavilion, such a strange scene was staged: while knocking on the door, he couldn't keep it closed......
The officials, who were accustomed to bullying men and women on weekdays, felt that their majesty had been challenged, and they were furious for a while. The two leaders-like men ordered their men to bring a wooden stake and slam it into the gate.
Suddenly, I heard a flattering voice behind me, calling: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't be impatient!"
When those officials heard the honorific title of "official", they suddenly lost a lot of anger, but they still pretended to be arrogant, and shouted at the owner of the voice: "What are you?!"
The voice came from the sedan chair, and the owner of the voice was pulling open the sedan curtain and leaning out. I saw that he was forty or fifty years old, with broad eyebrows and tiger eyes, and his aura was lofty, but his smiling face was so bright that he could melt ice and snow, which made people want to be angry but couldn't get angry!
There are such sleek and sophisticated people in the world!
With the insight of the officials, they naturally couldn't understand the sophistication and smoothness of the person who came, but their eyes were aimed at a jade pendant on the man's waist. Seeing the situation, the man immediately understood, and with a look of sudden realization, he hurriedly took off the jade pendant on his waist, and respectfully handed it to one of the officials who seemed to be the leader, and said as he handed it over: "Officials, I'm really embarrassed! There are old friends living in this Yunluo Pavilion, and they are definitely not people who violate the law and discipline...... If there is any offense, the old man is willing to make amends with a jade pendant, and he hopes that all the officials will laugh at it. ”
Although his eyes were ugly, the jade pendant was shiny and shiny, and even fools could see that it was worth a lot of money. I saw him pretending to be a duke's selflessness, stretched out his hand to take the jade pendant, and said solemnly: "Earlier, the governor of Liangguang was killed by an assassin in Wanchun Garden, I think you are a fresh face, and you were supposed to be arrested and interrogated, but I see that you still know some rules, so you can not embarrass you." As for this Yunluo Pavilion, the county magistrate has ordered us to search from house to house, and if there is any obstruction, we will be killed!"
The meaning of the words is clear - the jade pendant can only protect yourself, and we still have to search this Yunluo Pavilion!
The sleek old man who came out of the sedan chair and offered the jade pendant, listening to the other party's words like this, did not show annoyance, and leaned over to whisper to the head of the official who received the jade pendant: "I will explain to the county commander, you go to search other places first, I can guarantee that there is no problem with this Yunluo Pavilion." ”
As he spoke, the old man turned his back to the other officials, took out an ebony token from his bosom, and presented it to the head of the officials. This angle happens to be visible only to the head of the government.
I saw that there were five golden characters engraved on the token, and it was "the master of the six doors"!
The head of the official trembled, and he almost knelt down, but he gave the old man a breath of true qi against his knees, and from behind, he still looked majestic and upright.
"Yunluo Pavilion is an important member of the imperial court at this time, how can you be allowed to harass you wantonly?!...... Do you still need me to teach you how to do it?!"
This sip of candy is quite effective, on the surface it gives the other party enough face, but secretly it is a complete deterrent.
The head of the official frequently bowed his head and said yes, then turned around and said loudly: "Brothers, there is nothing suspicious here, let's search other places!"
The officials were full of questions, but seeing that the boss's face was not good, he didn't dare to ask, so he had to obey the order to withdraw.
The head of the official took his subordinates and left with a disgraced face, and he bumped into a weak Confucian student without taking two steps, and he was angry, but in view of the experience of not knowing Mount Tai, the head of the official did not dare to move for a while, and carefully looked at the Confucian student in front of him, for fear that it would be another "Mount Tai". I saw that the Confucian was knocked to the ground, rubbing his ass and screaming, and when he raised his head, the head of the official recognized him as a storyteller in the inn recently, and immediately stopped worrying and kicked out. Unexpectedly, this kick seemed to have kicked cotton, and he couldn't make it out, but the storyteller Confucian was stunned and flew away. The head of the government servant spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm, and secretly cursed in his heart: What a hell today!
But he said that the storyteller who had been kicked away lay on the ground and wailed, his hands kept rubbing the sore spots of the kicks, but his eyes were looking around, and he didn't know what he was looking for...... Xu Yu slowly got up and staggered towards the inn......
In front of the Yunluo Pavilion. The old man who drove away the servants put away the token, stepped forward and knocked on the door, and said in a soft voice: "The heroes of the Divine Sword Villa have worked hard all the way! ”
The chief housekeeper behind the door heard that it was Mr. Situ, the owner of the six doors, and he looked relieved that he had been waiting for a long time, and immediately opened the door to welcome him in, and a sedan chair driver entourage also entered with him.
The entire Chong'an City was searched by the officials like this, and it was already restless. In the streets and alleys, the flames are excited, the figures are flying, the footsteps, the sound of knocking on the door, and the sound of shouting and scolding are one after another, intertwined and reverberated, and noisy. At the gate of the city not far from Yunluo Pavilion, there are also a lot more guards, and the people entering and leaving are "strictly" checked......
