[Comprehensive martial arts] I fall into the city

There were not many people in the teahouse, and when Li Che went up, Jiang Chen didn't move much, his eyes were still looking out of the window.

Li Che originally wanted to salute, but Jiang Chen waved his hand, so Li Che had no choice but to call "Young Master".

Jiang Chen glanced at Li Che, then at Li Ning, and said, "Sit down, I'm just bored at home, so come out for a walk."

Li Che said, "The east city is lively, and the young master will definitely not be bored if he goes there."

Jiang Chen said with some annoyance, "It's either a brothel or a gambling house. It's bustling here. It's good to see how the common people live."

Li Che smiled.

Li Ning usually talked a lot, but now she suddenly stopped talking, and sat there with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking.

Jiang Chen noticed her, and asked, "Who is this girl?"

Li Ning raised her head slightly, and said in a muffled voice, "My name is Li Ning, and I'm his sister."

She pointed at Li Che with her finger, showing no manners.

Jiang Chen didn't care about this, he smiled, and said, "No wonder you still cover your face at night, I remember that when Li Zhuangyuan took the imperial examination, all the ministers in the court were men, and they were all captured by his radiance. In a year, I don't know how many girls' hearts have been broken."

Li Ning blinked her eyes, glanced at Li Che, and said, "You are born with good looks, and you can be attracted by this alone. Doesn't it mean that you are good-looking and should be loved by everyone?"

Jiang Chen sighed, "The girl is right, but who in this world is not an ordinary person?"

Li Ning stopped talking.

Probably because very few people talk to him and ignore them, Jiang Chen smiled again and said, "Meet people first, and know people's hearts over time. In my opinion, beauty is just an appearance. If you have an empty head There is nothing on an empty stomach, and even the most beautiful appearance is just a castle in the air. People who are full of talent but not obvious on the outside will naturally show it after getting along for a long time. If you have both, you should not blame the world if you have both. Do you favor them?"

Li Ning had never heard such an argument, but she found it very interesting, and nodded slightly.

Jiang Chen smiled, and suddenly said, "I'm really curious, I don't know what it looks like under this veiled hat."

Li Che half-jokingly said, "Why don't I wear a set of hairpins and pretend to be a girl for the young master to see."

Jiang Chen knew that Li Che didn't want to, he never forced others to do anything difficult, and as soon as he said something, he saw Li Ning raised his hand and untied the hood and put it aside, revealing a pair of bright and smart eyes, and a pair of eyes that covered most of his face. brocade white veil.

Probably thinking that he would be very disappointed, those astonishingly beautiful eyes were bent, and a smile like moonlight flowed out, and said, "Young master saw it, it looks like this."

After speaking, he put on the veil again.

Jiang Chen was stunned for a while, then let out a long breath.

Li Ning only took it as a naughty act, even Li Che was just afraid that she would offend Jiang Chen, but Jiang Chen felt that it was bad.

He is afraid that it will take a long time to forget these eyes.

It was almost curfew time after coming out of the tea house, Jiang Chen was a little reluctant to go back to the palace, just happened to be a short distance from Li Che's mansion, he coughed lightly, and said, "I've been sitting for a while, I want to go back."

The accompanying eunuch looked at him in shock.

It takes a quarter of an hour to ride a horse from Xicheng to the imperial palace. Although my master also practices martial arts, he is usually lazy and never willing to take an extra step. How can he go back when he is good?

However, Jiang Chen wanted to leave, and no one dared to stop him. Xicheng was not far from Li Che's residence, and Li Che subconsciously pulled Li Ning to walk behind Jiang Chen.

The night market closed, and the street gradually became deserted. Across Li Che, Jiang Chen could still find Huatou to chat with Li Ning, and the more they chatted, the more speculative they became. Li Che was already planning to let Li Ning leave the capital after tonight.

It's not that he flatters his own sister, he's also a man, and he knows best what a man looks like when he's interested in something. Jiang Chen usually treats people kindly, but he's not in such a friendly way.

Li Che didn't think that showing a pair of eyes could make a man fall in love with him. He just thought that Li Ning had talked too much tonight, and that the ideas of Jianghu women were always more novel than those of those in the palace.

Jiang Chen really found it very novel.

Even if it wasn't for those eyes, he thought tonight was a pretty lovely night.

Turning around an alley, I suddenly saw at the end of the alley a hunchbacked old woman selling fried chestnuts with sugar, shabby clothes, gray hair, and a hoarse voice, all of which spoke of pity.

When Jiang Chen saw him, his first reaction was that there shouldn't be a night market stall on the way from Xicheng to Beicheng, but Li Ning felt pitiful.

She didn't like beggars, but felt pity for these poor people who were still struggling to make ends meet, and tugged on Li Che's sleeve.

Li Che took out ten pennies, not a penny more, and a penny was a lot, to buy a catty of chestnuts.

Even Jiang Chen felt that his servant was too stingy.

He asked the accompanying eunuch to also buy two catties of chestnuts. The eunuch had no pockets of silver, so he took out five taels of silver ingots and threw them to the old woman, and returned with the chestnuts.

Li Che doesn't like to eat chestnuts, so Li Ning took the bag of chestnuts, peeled one and handed it under the veil, separated by a layer of light veil, Jiang Chen didn't even see a trace of it in the night, so he could only feel depressed He deliberately took a bag of hot chestnuts to eat, but he couldn't do anything about it. The accompanying eunuch had to test the poison first, and there was no problem in eating it, so he peeled the clean ones and gave them to him.

Just as Jiang Chen fed the chestnuts to his mouth, Li Ning's body swayed and he fell backwards lightly.

Li Che hugged her subconsciously.

The eunuch who was testing the poison only felt his stomach churning. Before losing consciousness, he shouted in a drawn-out voice, "Toxic... Escort!"

The chestnut in Jiang Chen's hand fell to the ground.

At some point in the silent alley, countless black shadows turned up and stopped the old lady who sells sugar and fried chestnuts before she escaped. Li Che hugged Li Ning and stared blankly. In the dark night, there was only a pair of red like blood. The embroidered shoes are very eye-catching.

The veil was no longer white, and blood seeped out from under the veil. Only then did Li Che come to his senses, and hurriedly pulled down his veil, and untied Li Ning's veil, but saw that her lips were bleeding, and her eyes were already a little distracted.

Jiang Chen thought about peeking at the face under the veil of the owner of those beautiful eyes, but he never thought about peeking like this.

He stood aside in a daze, the hidden guards were still fighting in the alley, he couldn't help pointing at the alley and shouted, "So many people can't take down an assassin! I don't want escorts, I want an antidote!"

The masters guarding him were a little hesitant.

Jiang Chen pulled out a long sword from a guard's waist, and shouted, "If you don't go, I will go!"

Without any further hesitation, several masters flew forward in unison.

Jiang Chen dropped his sword with a bang, but saw that the eunuch who was testing the poison for him had already passed out. Seeing that he was almost out of breath, he suddenly lost his strength and leaned against the corner of the wall.

Li Ning vomited a mouthful of blood and woke up slightly from the previous severe pain. Although her limbs felt cold, her mind was a little clear. She knew that she had been poisoned, but although she knew how to make poison according to the formula, she could not Unable to heal others, she took a few short breaths and held Li Che's hand instead. Many words came to her lips, but she didn't know what to say. She opened her mouth, but was speechless.

Li Che's tears fell on her face like rain.

Li Ning felt a little itchy and wanted to tell him not to cry, but she also felt a bit of coolness on her fingertips.

The dark clouds spread for three thousand miles in an instant, and the torrential rain poured down.

Li Ning lost consciousness.

After the Embroidered Bandit was brought to justice, it has been a long time since any major events have happened in the Jianghu.

Not only Lu Xiaofeng felt so, but almost everyone felt so.

Then a big event happened that shocked the whole Jianghu. The news flew all over the world like wings, spreading faster than the heavy rain that had been raining for several days.

Aunt Gongsun, the leader of the secret organization "Red Shoes", attempted to assassinate the emperor. The court was furious.

Lu Xiaofeng immediately thought of Xue Bing and Ouyang Qing.

When he was tracking down the embroidered thieves, he already discovered that Xue Bing had joined the red shoes, and Ouyang Qing was also one of them, but no one in this world knew them better than him. Although Xue Bing had a bad temper, she was a good girl, and Ouyang Qing was ruthless. It's a bit hotter, but I can't do anything outrageous.

He immediately set off for the capital, but it was still a step too late. Ouyang Qing and Xue Bing had already been arrested. The arrester was Zhong Ming, who had had an affair with him before. He tried to ask about the situation, but Zhong Ming ignored him , just shouted coldly: "Lu Xiaofeng, I think I have a little friendship with you, and I remind you, no matter you have a great relationship with those women, the imperial edict has been issued, if you want to blame them, you can blame them for not knowing people clearly, and following the big treason. leader."

Lu Xiaofeng was completely ignorant of the inside story, but he had brains. Aunt Gongsun even framed the Embroidered Thief incident deliberately by Jin Jiuling. of?There must be another reason here. If it was just a misunderstanding, then why did it take more than 500 lives to appease the emperor?

Zhong Ming took a deep breath and said, "As long as you have some conscience, don't mention this again."

Lu Xiaofeng said, "If I didn't have a conscience, I wouldn't have come here at all!"

Zhong Ming said angrily, "It's true that Aunt Gongsun assassinated the Son of Heaven. The Son of Heaven said so, what can you do?"

Lu Xiaofeng immediately understood that there was really an inside story here, and the inside story was on the emperor himself. It must be a lie for Mrs. Gongsun to assassinate the emperor, but at this time the emperor believed it to be true, so it can only be true.

He stroked his newly trimmed beard, and couldn't help but smiled wryly, "Brother Zhong Ming, because of our friendship, you must tell me the truth."

Zhong Ming said with a cold face, "I don't want to talk to you, I still want to arrest people, if you want to ask clearly, you can go to Li Zhuangyuan's mansion and ask."

Lu Xiaofeng knew that Zhong Ming couldn't ask any more questions, so he didn't say any more, went out six doors, and went straight to Li's residence.
