Man Tang Huacai

Chapter 43
Yin time, night hidden.

This is the darkest time of night before dawn.

Xue Bai rode his horse and turned into Quxiang, at the same time thinking about what happened tonight, to see if there were any omissions that should be made up as soon as possible.

He was too busy before, so he only remembered that Du Wulang hadn't returned home yet, and he was a little worried that he would be discovered because Du Wulang helped to connect.After all, there is too little information to judge.

He went to the casino and had a lot to do.For example, secretly letting Longyou veterans escape and erasing traces, if they missed any insider under the knife, they had to solve it themselves.

I still have to find Wang Zhun to discuss who should share the responsibility for tonight's incident, because I failed to explain to Tuoba Mao just now, I hope this evil young man in Chang'an is too unlucky to be hacked to death before he arrives.

Ahead, with a loud "bang", the door of a house was opened, and many panicked people poured out.

"Kill!"

Xue Bai went forward against the crowd, and saw that the house was brightly lit and in chaos, he immediately turned around and told the two Jinwu guards: "There are thieves, don't be impulsive, listen to my arrangements."

"Jin Wuwei is here! Don't squeeze, tell me, what happened?"

"There's a murder inside!"

"Don't run around, do you know if you violated the ban?" Xue Bai shouted: "Is there anyone who knows who wants to report to me?!"

He was not in a hurry to go there, and used this method to induce a confession to find out if any members of the Ji family had escaped.

~~
At the same time, the dignitaries in the Nuanrong Pavilion shouted loudly, and the Longyou veterans fought fiercely with the guards.

With neither side wearing armor, the secret gambling house and the guards of many nobles were braver than the Chang'an patrols, and dared to rush forward to stop them due to the large number of people.

The colorful curtain was cut off and fell to the ground, and a large stream of blood was splashed on it in an instant.

There were more than twenty corpses lying on the ground, including gamblers, slaves, and guards.

"Oh!"

The big screen was hit.

The naked orchid screamed and ran away on her slender legs, dazzlingly white.

"Dog thieves are so daring! Kill them!"

Wang Zhun didn't care about putting on his clothes, he rolled several times before getting up, pointed at the Longyou veterans, and ordered his guards to come forward.

Only the No. [-] Evil Younger in Chang'an still has the guts to scold at this time, but he only dares to scold one sentence.

Immediately afterwards, Jia Chang and Li Xiu stepped forward, pushed him to the ground, so that he would not be so conspicuous, and crawled to the back of the hall on all fours.

Those Longyou veterans had already hacked to death the guardian of Ji's family. Seeing that there were many guards in the gambling house and they were carrying bows, they couldn't kill them and just rushed out.

But if some gamblers escape slowly, it is inevitable that they will be stabbed.

"Quick."

A corpse knocked down the gaming table, causing a mess all over the place. Jia Chang was terrified, turned his head and cursed, and pushed Wang Zhun's naked butt, urging him to crawl to the backyard.

"Let the heroes out! What are you doing stuck there?!"

As expected of a child prodigy, with a flexible mind, he saved countless people without saying a word.

The dead soldiers from Longyou were finally killed.

~~
The backyard of Nuanrong Pavilion.

Many guards hurried past, and a plump and beautiful woman asked, "Who dares to make trouble with me?"

"I don't know yet."

"Come here to mess things up?"

"I haven't had time to ask yet, but they have been repelled. Madam, please wait here. The villains will take it down and check it later."

With a cold face, the beautiful woman continued to go to the front hall.

Walking up the promenade, I saw a group of people crawling out, some of them were naked, with their fat dangling around, so interesting.The man raised his head, but it was Wang Zhun.

"Daxi Yingying, who did you recruit?" Wang Zhun called her name and asked her, while using all four legs together, he crawled very fast.

"Da Lang leaves first, and I will explain to you later."

Daxi Yingying didn't squeeze with them, and walked sideways into the private room next to her.

She stroked the broken hair by her ears, and suddenly saw a young man who was tied up in a big knot and was bending under the side couch, like a stupid long worm.

"Pfft."

Du Wulang was frightened to death when he heard the killing shouts outside. He didn't expect to hear someone laughing at such a time. When he turned his head to look, it was a very charming woman with a plump body that seemed to be overflowing.

"You, you hide quickly... Let me hide inside? Quick."

He couldn't bear the woman being ruined by the murderer, so he moved his body to make room for her to get under the couch.

Daxi Yingying didn't appreciate it, and asked, "Who are you?"

"Oh, hide quickly." Du Wulang was anxious and frightened, but his eyes were kind, and said, "It's so dangerous outside!"

"Tonight's private room was reserved by Ji Jia Dalang, why did he tie you up?"

"Just because of a little quarrel, he killed my book boy, alas... You should save your life first."

Seeing the sincerity and sincerity in his eyes, Daxi Yingying believed what he said, that the son of Ji Tong Wen would indeed often bully others because of a little quarrel.

"Hurry up, don't get killed." Du Wulang urged.

Daxi Yingying met so many teenagers in her life, but it was rare to see such simple care in times of crisis, so she looked at Du Wulang again, and said something to herself with a smile.

"It's funny how ugly it is."

After all, she turned and left.

Du Wulang was taken aback for a moment, and secretly scolded the beautiful woman for not closing the door even if she escaped, killing someone.

He hastened to the bottom of the couch, and finally got his head in, but someone grabbed his feet and dragged him out.

Du Wulang was frightened out of his wits and burst into tears.

"Don't kill me! Please don't kill me, I don't want to die!"

Then, he felt a chill in his hand and the rope loosened on his body. He turned around and saw a man dressed as a casino guard cutting the rope with a dagger.

"Ah, thank you, thank you."

Du Wulang thanked him, and thanked the other party again after getting up, carefully stepped out of the door, looked left and right, and ran towards the backyard quickly.

The rear side door was still locked, and many people huddled together and yelled, both with and without clothes on.

He paid attention for a while, and didn't see the beautiful woman just now, hoping that she would run away, so he quickly found a dark place to hide.

~~
"The murderer is out!"

In the alley outside Nuanrong Pavilion, someone suddenly shouted.

Xue Bai straddled his horse at the entrance of the alley, with the best view. He saw Jinwu Guards rushing towards each alley with torches, and immediately shouted: "Stop it, don't let the thieves break up the crowd and run away!"

"..."

Tuoba Mao rushed out of the courtyard gate, saw the crowd blocking the west, planned to flee northward along the wall of the square, but he didn't know that he would be surrounded by the Jinwu Guards.

He had already taken two steps, but suddenly he heard Xue Bai shouting.

Tonight, he already understood the benefits of listening to this kid's arrangement, so he immediately followed suit, changed his pace, and rushed towards the crowd ferociously.

"Blow them away!"

"what!"

The crowd who had just been appeased by Xue Bai immediately became a mess, pushing each other and running away.

A patrol arrived from the west, and hastily lined up to guard the entrance of the alley, shouting: "Don't escape!"

"The Jinwu Guard is here! Those who dare to break the ban will be taken down..."

The gamblers who ran ahead didn't care, and went straight to the Jinwu team.

"Don't use the knife, I am the son of the new Minister of the Household Department!"

Following someone yelling like this, the gamblers reported their names one after another, shouting and cursing, all of them were either rich or expensive.

There was even a woman in Chinese clothes beating the Jinwu Guard with a horsewhip, screaming, "Let me go! I am the daughter of Shangzhu Kingdom and the nephew of a sage, how dare you stop me?!"

At this time, the veteran soldiers from Longyou rushed close, swung their knives and knocked down a few slow runners. They were familiar with how to break through the enemy army, and they deliberately didn't kill people, causing them to roll on the ground and scream in pain.

The gamblers were scared out of their wits, and the Jinwu Guard's hastily formed team was knocked away in an instant, like a flood breaking an embankment, and it was out of control, completely ruining the curfew of Daozhengfang.

Even Jiaonu was washed away, and the horse was frightened and almost pushed her off the horse.

The startled horse ran with the crowd for a while, and she finally calmed down, then turned around, but Xue Bai was nowhere to be seen.

~~
Xue Bai climbed up the stone steps, looked at Jixiang's corpse, and saw that the wound on the severed neck was extremely terrifying.

He squatted down, reached into Jixiang's arms and groped for a while, finding many objects.

Among them was a letter of greeting, which he opened under the lantern, and it was intended to be sent to Princess Xianyi's mansion, he frowned, and quickly put it away.

After that, Xue Bai squatted down again, and began to rummage through the corpse...

"Who are you?!"

Suddenly there was a shout from behind, a general of the Jinwu Guard arrived, Xue Bai got up unhurriedly, and took out the wooden plaque of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion smoothly, regardless of whether the other party recognized him or not.

"The right minister is handling the case, you immediately seal off the scene."

~~
Du Wulang hid in the courtyard and watched for a while, then suddenly froze for a moment, seeing a familiar figure walking into the backyard.

"Hey."

He knew not to call Xue Bai by name, so he took a pebble and threw it there.

Xue Bai recognized his voice and walked towards his direction.

This was an unexpected little trouble. If Li Linfu knew that Du Wulang was present tonight, he would inevitably become suspicious.

"Why are you here?"

Du Wulang was knocked down as soon as he came out of the restaurant. He didn't hear anything about what happened, and he didn't know the seriousness of the matter. He bluffed and said: "I was beaten up by Jixiang and tied up, but I escaped. .”

It is inconvenient to say more at this time, Xue Bai patted Du Wulang on the shoulder, and whispered a few words.

"..."

Over there, the Jinwu Guard has come to the backyard, and saw a naked young man snatching other people's clothes, he stepped forward and shouted: "The Jinwu Guard is here, don't be presumptuous, who are you waiting for?"

"presumptuous!"

Xue Bai didn't wait for Wang Zhun and others to speak, he strode forward, holding a red sandalwood card and shouted: "Do you know who they are? Get out of the way."

The Jin Wuwei walked away resentfully, but he didn't offend Wang Zhun because of it.

"Xue Bai is under the right minister's house." Xue Bai said: "This place is not safe, please follow me to the right minister's residence."

"You are Xue Bai?" Li Xiu stepped forward, nodded slightly, and praised: "I have heard about you, and you are indeed a good-looking talent."

Compared with those cronies, he has a much better demeanor, and his temperament is not like Li Linfu.

"Juro is polite."

"What happened?"

"Jijia Dalang was killed."

"This plague chicken." Wang Zhun scolded displeased, "It's causing trouble."

Xue Bai said: "So that Wang Dalang can know that Uncle Gui's other house is on fire tonight, and I'm afraid there will be some trouble."

"What's the trouble?"

Xue Bai whispered a few words to Wang Zhun.

Wang Zhun immediately frowned and said in a low voice, "Impossible?"

"The most urgent task right now is to explain this matter to Prime Minister Right." Xue Bai said, "Please, everyone."

Li Xiu raised his hand to let Wang Zhun go first.

Wang Zhun was even more imposing than the young master of the right minister's mansion, he pulled his collar and walked in front as a matter of course, and all the dudes heard that this place was not safe, so they followed suit.

suddenly.

"My son? It's really my son!"

Someone rushed to Xue Bai and yelled loudly, but it was Xue Ling.

"Liulang? Liulang, take me out of here quickly, I don't dare to stay any longer."

Xue Bai frowned imperceptibly, thinking that this was another unexpected trouble.

"Let's go." He glanced in the direction of Du Wulang, and added, "You go ahead."

Xue Ling was overjoyed, rushed to grab it, and followed those dandies out, met two creditors on the way, and explained it proudly.

"That's my long-lost son, the big celebrity in front of the Prime Minister!"

Xue Bai ignored Xue Ling, and assisted in arranging the escort of the Jinwu Guards. The arrangements were orderly, and the dignitaries were sent away from the casino during the curfew.

He also took the initiative to order the Jinwu Guard not to record, so as to prevent the dignitaries from being impeached by the censor.

~~
Daxi Yingying boarded the attic again and watched all the things happening in the hall.A patrolman wanted to go upstairs to search, but was blocked by a servant with a token.

Gradually, the gamblers are almost gone.

"Ma'am, I just asked. The concierge said that the murderers claimed to be the servants of Jingzhao Mansion Fa Cao Jiwen. The villain looked at the corpses and found that they first killed Jixiang and his guards. The others were implicated and suffered."

"Auspicious?" Daxi Yingying realized that it was rare for her to be soft-hearted, and she actually made a mistake, and said: "Auspicious, come tonight with an ugly boy with small eyes, and look for it."

"Here."

However, after searching for a long time, everyone in the casino found nothing.

"Madam, we did not find any small-eyed boy."

"Check, check someone who has a problem with Jixiang."

Daxi Yingying was not surprised by this result, and only ordered a detailed investigation.

Holding the tea in her hand, she leaned to her red lips and took a sip, thinking about it, puzzled.

What kind of identity does that seemingly listless boy have to be, so that after being tied up, those incomparably tough murderers will desperately come to rescue him?
"Extraordinary." She murmured to herself, "It's true, people can't be judged by their appearance."
