Chapter 16
Chapter 16
The people of Ye Gucheng had already left, Xie Wan had no chance to explain.Thinking of the ever-changing mountains and rivers since then, but she has always retained such an impression in the other party's heart of "crazily in love with Ye Gucheng but dare not let him know", Xie Wan didn't mention how complicated it was.But right away, Xie Wan realized that this speech came from her conversation with Li Xunhuan, and it should have been forgotten by Ye Gucheng after Li Xunhuan left, why would he still remember it.
[System: Ye Gucheng is also a person of luck, and the laws of heaven need to spend more power to erase his memory of these things.Even if he doesn't remember Li Xunhuan, it's hard to guarantee that he won't remember anything else... The most effective way to prevent it is to reduce the encounters between these lucky people. 】
Xie Wan sighed, it was easy for Tong'er to say, but they had legs growing on them, and they were all romantic figures, so there was no chance to meet them.Just like when Tie Shou came to Yanbei by accident, he had a deep friendship with Li Xunhuan fighting side by side.She couldn't just tie the targets she was going to poke in place and prevent them from seeing each other.It's not them who are worried, but her.
Worrying, Xie Wan also thought about it, and didn't even care about the things related to Ye Gucheng that were a little distressed before.The sky is big and the earth is big, how can it be so easy to meet someone over and over again.Maybe long before she met Ye Gucheng again, she stabbed the remaining two back home.
【Xie Wan: Tonger, help me see where Tie Shou and Chu Liuxiang are these days and what they are doing respectively. 】
Two months later, the capital.
Restaurants and teahouses have always been lively places, gathering all kinds of people from all walks of life here, and there is always a storyteller who is always so well-informed for some reason.Not to mention that this is the capital city, the most prosperous place in the whole world, in the capital city, even in an ordinary restaurant, there may be famous people.
The storyteller was just talking about the wonderful point: "The thief was so courageous, he committed several crimes in a row, and finally stole the disaster relief silver taels issued by the court, and a total of 5 taels disappeared out of thin air. The escort of the silver taels The officers and soldiers were either dead or injured... In the end, there was only a piece of human/skin/mask/tool left, which was the logo of the bandit 'Thousand Faces' that hadn't appeared for a long time."
Everyone listened with gusto, but they couldn't help but feel that the people who stole official money were too rampant, and the crime of stealing was the court's head.
Tie Shou just finished a case some time ago, and he was taking a rest recently. He wanted to relax, but he sat in the teahouse and hadn’t had a few cups of tea. After hearing what the storyteller said, Tie Shou The originally relaxed expression on his face faded.Tie Shou called Xiao Er to settle the money, and walked quickly to Shenhou Mansion.
The theft of official bank is a major event, and it is committed by people from all walks of life. After the urgent express letter arrives in the capital, the task of recovering the official bank and arresting the criminal will surely fall on the Shenhou Mansion.Since the storyteller in the tea house in the capital has heard the news, Uncle Shi must have sent other brothers to go.There were dozens of steps away from the Shenhou Mansion, and Tie Shou had already seen the figure of his third junior brother.
Zhui Ming was about to get on his horse when he heard a solid voice calling him: "Third Junior Brother!"
Iron Hand's voice was not deafening, but it was hard to ignore.Zhui Ming knew that Tie Shou Xiu Mu was today, and he had only gone out not long ago, so he seemed a little surprised that he would come back this time.
"what happened?"
"Just now I heard about the case of the disaster relief official bank being stolen. Uncle Shi asked you to take charge of this case?"
Tie Shou's guess was right, Zhuiming nodded in agreement.It is understandable for Zhuge Shenhou to let Zhui Ming take charge of the case. Among the four of them, Zhui Ming has the best kicks, and it is only appropriate for him to come forward to hunt down such a thief.But Tie Shou asked him to wait a while, he couldn't figure out what to do, so he had to follow Tie Shou back to Zhuge Shenhou.
Zhuge Shenhou was a little surprised when he saw the third disciple leaving and returning, and he was looking for him together with the second disciple Tie Shou.
"What's wrong with you two?"
One of the people being questioned was also puzzled, and looked at Tie Shou desperately.
Tie Shou said: "Uncle Shi, can you entrust me with the responsibility for the theft of disaster relief official money?"
Tie Shou's words caused the other two present to be stunned to varying degrees.The four senior brothers were accepted by Zhuge Zhengwo one after another. Although they were not related by blood, they were truly as close as brothers, and there was no possibility of competing for credit among the four.There must be something hidden behind the words that can be said by the usually stable iron hand.
Zhuge Zhengwo naturally believed in the character of the disciple, so he said directly: "Tell me the reason."
"The official bank was stolen, and only a person/skin/mask/mask was left at the scene. Every time the thief 'Thousand Faces' committed a crime in the early years, he would inevitably leave a piece of human/skin/mask/mask as an identification...Don't hide it from Shishu , I have a relationship with Qianmian. Although this person acts both good and evil, it depends on his preferences, but he is somewhat chivalrous, and he will never take the idea of relief for disasters. Besides, there has been no news of Qianmian for a long time in the world. I am afraid that this time There is something hidden inside."
Zhuge Zheng and I took a look at Tie Shou and sighed inwardly.As a teacher and an elder, he knows the character of his disciples best.Although the iron hand is stable, it is also kind and righteous. If the captured prisoner is wronged, he will help him out of justice.Right now the truth is not clear, he is thinking about his old friends, and it really seems like him.
"Okay, then you can go. Don't act emotionally." Knowing that the disciple would never do anything to cover up the prisoner, Zhuge Shenhou only lightly mentioned something.
"Thank you, Uncle Shi!"
Tie Shou quickly packed his bags, Zhui Ming came in with him, but when he came out, it was him who sent Tie Shou.The task was temporarily changed, and there was no opinion at all on Chasing Life. The relationship between their brothers and sisters was really good.After Tieshou got on his horse, Zhuiming handed Tieshou his bag.The brothers said a few words of concern, Zhui Ming suddenly changed a teasing expression, and winked at Tie Shou: "I heard that Qian Mian is a woman?"
Tie Shou laughed: "Thinking so much?"
"Tell me what's on my mind."
The matter was urgent, and the two didn't have much time to chat, so Tieshou said goodbye to Zhuiming who sent him out, and hurried out of the city.
Before summer came, Jingzhou unreasonably experienced continuous torrential rain for half a month.Coupled with the spring flood of the Yangtze River, the huge flood that occurred once in decades destroyed the lives of the people.The urgent letter was sent to the capital for 5 miles, and the emperor opened it and read it in person. He was shocked and angry, and ordered the second-rank general of the court to lead his officers and soldiers to escort [-] taels of disaster silver and supplies to Jingzhou immediately.But to everyone's surprise, the disaster bank was looted.
It was still raining.
The doors of every house in Jingzhou City were closed, and it seemed that the streets were much more depressed.Hu Tiehua doesn't like rain very much. Rainy days always make people listless. Only drinking can make him feel a little happier.He and the old bug Chu Liuxiang were passing through Jingzhou unintentionally, but they didn't expect to be trapped by the heavy rain, and now they have been staying for the third day.
"Boring! This day is too boring!" Hu Tiehua couldn't help but shouted.
"Why, finally even wine can't stop your mouth?" Another man beside Hu Tiehua who was also drinking teased him.
The man who spoke had a handsome face, and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked. No matter what kind of boudoir girl saw it, he would feel shy and shy. This man was Chu Liuxiang.
"How is that possible!" Hu Tiehua glared at him, then poured several sips of wine into his mouth, and then threw the bottle on the wooden table with a thud, "This rain monster is very annoying."
"For you and me, it just traps us, but for the people of Jingzhou City, it may be a ruthless disaster that makes them completely homeless and forced to die." Chu Liuxiang pushed open the window, Dou Da Raindrops quickly crept in through the tiny cracks in the window, and wet the sleeve of Chu Liuxiang's hand resting on the table.Chu Liuxiang had no expression on his face, but it made people feel his sentimentality and pity.
Hu Tiehua was silent, sometimes he was indeed not as delicate as Chu Liuxiang.
Rain can make people worry, Hu Tiehua thought, facing the heavy rain, Chu Liuxiang probably thought not only of the disaster, but also of his own sadness.Otherwise, there would be no more loneliness and self-blame in his eyes.Hu Tiehua comforted him: "You... don't worry, Rongrong is never the smartest, and nothing will happen to her."
Chu Liuxiang smiled bitterly: "I only blame that I was too reassured in the past. She is a woman. Others know her relationship with me. If they want to embarrass her, I am really afraid..."
The following words gradually fell out of his mouth, and Chu Liuxiang dared not speak.
Hu Tiehua scratched his head, he is not good at speaking comforting words, and he doesn't know what to do at the moment.But before he could think of what to say, Chu Liuxiang stood up suddenly, and flew out of the window on the second floor into the rain.
"Hey!" Hu Tiehua didn't know why, so he hurriedly chased after him.
In the torrential rain, the carriage that had been speeding along the street suddenly lost control. The driver saw the old man who was startled by the neighing of the horse not far away and had already fallen to the ground. He panicked and wanted to rein in the carriage, but the carriage stopped. No deceleration seen.Just at the very moment, a man flew down from the second floor, and pulled the fallen old man a few feet away with great speed. At the same time, the out-of-control carriage was also supported by a pair of firm and unshakable iron palms. The horse in its prime could not take another step until it neighed exhausted.
He thought he was going to die under the horse's hooves, but he was rescued by a kind-hearted person. The old man took Chu Liuxiang and thanked him repeatedly.
Chu Liuxiang smiled slightly, and supported the old man with both hands when he was about to kneel down: "It's nothing, you don't need to thank me anymore, go back quickly."
At this moment, Chu Liuxiang had already noticed that the frightened carriage had stopped safely with the help of another kind-hearted man.Chu Liuxiang was curious about being able to stabilize a carriage pulled by an adult foal with his bare hands, and even keep it in place.The visitor was on his way in the rainy day, and he only brought a bamboo hat, and his clothes were already soaked by the rain.He noticed Chu Liuxiang's gaze, and lifted his jaw slightly, revealing a pair of clear eyes under the bamboo hat.
It was the iron hand who came to Jingzhou to handle the case.
Seeing that the other party smiled gently at him first, Chu Liuxiang's heart warmed up, and just as he wanted to raise his eyebrows and smile at the other party, Chu Liuxiang's gaze inadvertently saw a familiar figure, he couldn't believe it at first, and then opened his eyes wide in surprise .In the next second, Chu Liuxiang rushed over quickly.
