female catcher

West Chang'an Street, Liu Mansion.

Liu Futong was favored by Wang Jin and was able to go out of the palace to build a mansion, and the Liu mansion was as splendid as the official mansion of the second rank.A wealthy family, even the green animal face tin ring used for the monster title ring on the door, high-profile and not avoiding suspicion, it shows its status.

Feng Piaoxu was invited into Liu's mansion by Han Ye. After passing through the huge courtyard, he saw Liu Futong.

Liu Futong is in his forties. He was born with a pair of white eyebrows.Within a few years of entering the palace, he became Wang Jin's confidant and has been favored until now.He is directly under Wang Jin, so he doesn't need to enter the palace to serve, and his power is at the height of his power. He is domineering and domineering outside the palace. He will come to eat, drink and have fun. He will invite people to invite Feng Piaoxu, and it is also for the next dinner.

Han Ye couldn't be younger than Liu Futong, but when he entered the room, he flattered and shouted: "Godfather, someone has invited you."

Liu Futong happened to be holding tea in his hand, and used the tea cover to shake the tea leaves, raised his eyes, glanced at the people in the room, took a sip of tea slowly, put down the cup, and said 'um', said: " The legs and feet of the sedan chair are not comfortable, Mingyufang has been here for a while."

Han Ye knew that Liu Futong was very precise about the timing, and he disliked him for being slow in bringing people, so he immediately apologized and said with a smile: "Godfather, there is a reason for being late..." He leaned close to Liu Futong and whispered in Liu Futong's ear, Liu Futong's eyes changed changed.

Feng Piaoxu, who had been ignored all this time, frowned at Han Ye's whisper.Liu Futong's eyes slowly fell on her, and when Han Ye finished speaking, Liu Futong also smiled and said: "It turns out that Boss Feng was also entangled by those barbarians from the Metropolitan Procuratorate. They are just things that cause trouble. Boss Feng, don't be afraid of them. With our family backing you, if you encounter them in the future, just blow them away, you are welcome. Sit down."

"Thank you, Eunuch Liu." Feng Piaoxu leaned into his seat, Yaohong stood behind him, and the servants served tea.

Liu Futong raised his teacup, "Try it, this is tribute tea."

Feng Piaoxu smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip.Liu Futong looked at her with a smile, "How is it?"

"Dragon tongue is printed with snow, the aroma is mild, the aftertaste is sweet and refreshing, and the fragrance lingers on the teeth and cheeks. It is naturally the best tea. The most wonderful thing is that the tea-making skills and tea utensils cater to the characteristics of tea just right. Only experts can understand. Father-in-law is For those who know life, a pot of tea tastes good."

"Well! You still understand me." Liu Futong smiled, "Only Boss Feng is a wonderful person who makes people feel relaxed and happy, a flower of interpretation."

"My father-in-law praises me, I don't know what Fengyue Tower can do for my father-in-law?"

Liu Futong raised his eyebrows, "You are really good at talking. We heard that your family has not accepted orders or banquets recently. You need to rest and declined all invitations?"

"It's for the outside world. Taking advantage of the ban on prostitution, let the girls rest for a while. If the father-in-law needs it, it's a different matter."

"Hehe, you are the one that suits me the most. I don't have any major issues. It's just that my birthday is about to pass, and the godsons I have taken in have come back from all directions. They want to be filial to me. , I also want to hold a lively birthday banquet. I know that the girls in Fengyue Tower are unparalleled in skills, and the Qinghong Shuangkui are even more beautiful. I will come out to the venue, and I want Boss Feng to take care of this." Liu Futong stared at Feng Piaoxu, he knew that Ningyan never took foreign orders, and she and Feng Wu were never on the same stage, but he just wanted the two of them to join in the fun, and it was up to Feng Piaoxu to give him face.

Feng Piaoxu's eyes were as usual, "Fengyuelou is more than just condensing smoke and phoenix dance. Twelve flowers interpreting language, poetry, dancing, calligraphy and piano are the big noodles. Since it is my father-in-law's birthday, I will naturally arrange it properly. when."

Liu Futong frowned, it seemed that Feng Piaoxu would not break the rules of Shuangkui not accepting foreign orders and different stations, but he was not angry, he just said: "Okay, Boss Feng has let go, our family will We'll wait and see. But when it comes to dancing, I'm afraid no one can compare to Feng Wu girl, our family said it first, we must let Feng Wu dance in our painting building."

As soon as these words came out, Yaohong changed her face first, and Feng Piaoxu's "no problem" made her heart skip a beat, with a murderous air in her chest and abdomen, and she tried her best to suppress it.

"The father-in-law has spoken, and Feng Wu will definitely come out." Feng Piaoxu made Liu Futong show his face again.

"Okay. It's not early today, let the servants prepare, and eat here today before going back."

"Okay, thank you, father-in-law."

Liu Futong giggled, chatting about antiques with Feng Piaoxu.Yaohong's expression returned to normal, but she just looked at Liu Futong's face and quietly clenched her fists.Taking advantage of this gap, Feng Piaoxu glanced at her inadvertently, and she lowered her head, no longer looking directly at Liu Futong.

After a while, the servants came to invite them to the side hall for dinner. After a while, they pushed and changed the cups, and the night grew thicker.

Liu Futong seemed to be in a good mood and drank a lot of wine, but a servant accidentally spilled the wine on his hand, Liu Futong's expression changed slightly, and the man immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, "Grandfather, please forgive me, please forgive me."

Liu Futong didn't say a word, but a ruthless look flashed in his eyes, but it was Feng Piaoxu who picked up the jug and filled it up for Liu Futong.

Liu Futong turned his face into a smile, and drank the wine in the glass. Seeing that the servant was still kneeling and shivering on the ground, he ordered: "Everyone has no manners, please back down, don't sweep our family and Boss Hefeng. Yaxing."

One sentence made all the servants back down. Feng Piaoxu was more pleasing to him than the servants pouring wine for him. After a while, he drank another pot, and he also became a little drunk. Hold on.

"Boss Feng is a sensible man with a wide range of opportunities. His business will definitely prosper. We will have a better appetite if we drink with you." He patted the back of Feng Piaoxu's hand and rubbed it again. The pearl powder raised in the house, our hands have been very dry recently."

"If the father-in-law doesn't dislike it, I have a few catties of high-quality pearls for the father-in-law. You can buy the top and let the father-in-law like it." Feng Piaoxu's expression remained unchanged, and he lightly touched the back of Liu Futong's hand, and retracted calmly. hands.

Liu Futong raised his orchid finger, pointed at Feng Piaoxu, and laughed, "You really please our family. Yaohong, fill up the wine for your boss."

Yaohong took over the job of pouring wine, Liu Futong was in high spirits, and he didn't plan to let them go back after dinner, got up drunk, and said to Feng Piaoxu: "Our family has a coral sculpture, Boss Feng will follow me to see it .”

Being dragged by Liu Futong, Feng Piaoxu couldn't say much, and followed him out of the side hall.The moon hangs high in the sky, casting light on the bamboo shadows. There are guards in the Liu residence, but they all know not to disturb the master. There is no one to be seen here, and the corridor is very quiet.

Liu Futong's footsteps were a bit vain, and he was drunk at the thought, when suddenly a black shadow flew down from the eaves, and a cold light pierced through the moonlight.Yaohong's expression changed, before she could rush forward, it was Liu Futong who raised his hand to pinch the stabbing sword with only two fingers.

He was still holding Feng Piaoxu behind him, and slowly raised his head, there was no trace of drunkenness in his eyes, he smiled sinisterly, and with two fingers, the sword of the black-clothed assassin bent into a half moon.The assassin's eyes changed, and when he was about to release his hand, the blade of the sword broke with a bang. The assassin moved forward due to inertia, and Liu Futong tapped the assassin's shoulder with two fingers, and there was a sound of bone cracking.

The assassin snorted, flew upside down and fell to the ground.Liu Futong had already let go of Feng Piaoxu, retracted his sleeves, turned his hands back, and struck out to defeat the enemy in one go.A pair of red phoenix eyes stared at the assassin, and said with a sneer, "Who gave you the courage to assassinate our family?"

The assassin turned over, half-kneeled on the ground, clutching his shoulders, just now he knew that he was no match for Liu Futong, without saying a word, he touched the ground and flew away.At this moment, the guards from all around also came rushing over. Liu Futong gave him a look, and they all chased after him. Liu Futong stood where he was, squinted his eyes, and followed.

Yaohong walked to Feng Piaoxu, and asked in a low voice: "Madam Boss, was it someone from above?"

Feng Piaoxu shook his head, "It doesn't look like it, but I don't know if the killer in Tianzilou took the order, follow up and have a look."

When Feng Piaoxu and the two followed Liu Futong, the guards of the Liu residence had already surrounded the assassin.The assassin was surrounded by an abandoned garden in the backyard of the Liu Mansion, standing on an old tree with a crooked neck in the abandoned garden.Under the old tree is facing a well, close to the fence, there are iron guards on the fence, and there are archers around, he has nowhere to escape.

"Our family advises you to surrender honestly and tell who is behind the scenes, so that you can save yourself the pain of flesh and blood." Liu Futong looked at the assassin with a sneer, as if that person was already meat on his chopping board.

The assassin swept around and said in a cold voice: "A stray dog ​​can't take human life, everyone will be punished, you have done so much to your heart, there are as many people who want to kill you!"

Liu Futong's eyes changed, and he dodged the bow and arrow in the hands of the person next to him. He drew the bow and pierced the assassin's chest, "Come here, chop him up and feed him to the dogs."

The assassin covered his chest, looked at the rushing guards, laughed and said: "Liu Futong, I'm just a desperado, death is not a pity, I'm not the first, and I won't be the last, your birthday is the anniversary of your death !” After speaking, he planted the old tree and fell into the water with a plop.

Liu Futong opened his eyes wide with anger, and said in a sharp voice: "It's reversed, go down and fish it up, peel the skin and break the bones!"

This is an old well, deep and cold, covered with moss.A guard took off his armor, and several people pulled the rope and carefully descended the well, not coming up for a long time.Just when Liu Futong was getting impatient, there was movement under the rope, the guard was pulled up, and his face turned blue: "There is not only one person down there, but also a, a skinless dead body!"

Liu Futong was startled for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he asked someone to pick up the two corpses.

Lobby.

Two corpses are placed in the center, one is an assassin, with nothing on his body, only a necklace with Tianzi No.[-] Building Sixteen written on it.The other was a body that had been skinned and soaked beyond recognition, with a stench that made people sick.

Holding the necklace, Liu Futong's hands trembled slightly, his face was gloomy, he gritted his teeth and said, "The walking corpse building! Someone call Han Ye over here!"

It so happened that someone reported: "The prince is here~"

Liu Futong was shocked again, and rushed out to greet him, only to see a tall eunuch in brocade clothes holding a fly whisk, surrounded by several people, entering the door.He has a childlike face and a handsome face, just the opposite of Liu Futong, with white hair, black eyebrows, ruddy complexion, high cheekbones, plump skin, only wrinkles around the corners of the eyes, not angry but majestic.

"Meet the father-in-law."

"Get up." Wang Jin also had a small voice, and her tone of voice was gentle when she spoke, with a little more confidence.His eyelids drooped slightly, he was serious, but his gaze was soft, "Futong, what did you yell just now, I heard it from a long distance away, it hurts my body."

Liu Futong smiled awkwardly, bowed to Wang Jin's side, raised his arms, helped him walk into the house, and said, "Elder-in-law, come and see inside."

When Wang Jin entered the room, he raised his eyelids and saw two corpses, including a disgusting and strange female corpse, but his face did not change, and he said slowly: "Our family just received some rumors that someone bought a murderer to kill you." You, let you pay attention, I didn't expect that something happened to you here."

"Elder-in-law, look at this chain. It's the walking corpse building that's following me. I've also heard about the killer building. It's hard to deal with. What do you think I should do?"

"You, I told you to keep a low profile on weekdays, and you must not listen." Wang Jin said angrily, glanced at the corpse again, pondered for a while, raised her little finger with long nails, hooked her index finger to let Liu Futong get closer, and then Whispered in his ear.

Liu Futong's expression changed several times when he heard it, and when Wang Jin finished speaking, he said bitterly: "Elder-in-law, you want me to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate for help, wouldn't you push me into the fire pit? They want me to die the most. Yes."

"Futong, don't you still trust our family? Go ahead and ask the Metropolitan Procuratorate to take charge, and then come to the palace to see me. We won't stay with our family anymore." After Wang Jin finished speaking, the fly whisk shook and led the people Gone without even touching the bench.

Liu Futong didn't dare to say anything more, he respectfully sent Wang Jin away, and said angrily, "Come here, report to the Metropolitan Procuratorate!"

Seeing the servants running out, the iron guards brought by Han Ye poured into the room again, asking all kinds of concerns, Liu Futong waved his hands impatiently, let Han Yegan stand in the room, he sat on a chair, touched the walking corpse building looking at the dead body on the ground, the more he thought about it, the more angry he was, "How courageous!"

In the corner, Feng Piaoxu and Yao Hong never left, and no one cared about them.

"Ma'am, it's Long Ji." Yaohong saw the sign clearly, and whispered behind Feng Piaoxu.

Feng Piaoxu remained calm, wondering what Wang Jin, who came and went in a hurry, said in Liu Futong's ear. Hearing the situation, it seemed that the Metropolitan Procuratorate was involved, so what was his intention?

After half an hour, a servant came to report, "Eunuch, Nangong is here."

Liu Futong was not very happy, and snorted, "Please~"

The female catcher entered the room with a saber, saluted tall and straight, her gaze was like a torch, and she looked like Mount Tai, and she overwhelmed the aura of the man in the room with a calm expression.

"Let's skip the ceremony, listen to the current situation first, and take these two unlucky corpses back to your procuratorate." Liu Futong squinted at Nangong Biluo, even if he stood up, he could only look up at her, sitting and watching her It's even more annoying.

Nangong Biluo raised her eyes, glanced at Feng Piaoxu and Feng Piaoxu in the corner, and then walked to the corpse and took a look, "What does Mr. Liu mean by asking us to carry the corpse away? The matter of Liu's residence, the Metropolitan Procuratorate Don't dare to intervene."

Liu Futong sneered, "Our family is not talking nonsense. Li Heng is not smart enough and has no vision. You, Nangong Biluo, know the powerful at the top, and make friends with the reckless at the bottom. Those of the Walking Corpse Building, as for this swollen female corpse, it is exactly the same as the skinned female corpse before, shouldn't it be under your control?"

"I see. Of course I'm in charge, and I'm still in charge. I want to tell Eunuch Liu some things first. I don't care about the case as soon as I investigate the case. I'm easy to be impulsive. If there is something offended at that time, I hope Eunuch Liu won't mind and don't worry about it." Cooperate." Nangong Biluo also smiled.

Liu Futong flattened the line of his lips, although he was a little annoyed, he said, "It's easy to say."

"Then please tell Eunuch Liu about the situation first."

Liu Futong took a deep breath and patiently described the situation.After hearing this, Nangong Biluo pondered for a while and asked, "Eunuch Liu, assassins don't kill people for no reason, and the Walking Corpse Building even takes money to do things. Did your father-in-law offend anyone or do anything bad? Oh, let's talk about it first." Let's talk about it recently."

Han Ye shouted: "Nangong Biluo pay attention to your words!"

Liu Futong raised his hand to signal Han Ye to retreat, and said grimly: "Arrestor Nangong, there must be evidence for a false accusation. In your eyes, what counts as offending? Is taking off your official uniform and sealing off your home counted? I should tell I've told you everything about you, and it's up to you how to investigate next, in order to perform your duties properly, you should take him back first."

Nangong Biluo smiled bluntly, and was not irritated by Liu Futong, "I am weak, and this assassin is a member of the Walking Corpse Building. In case something happens along the way, it is not good, why don't you ask Mr. Han to help me?" Escort the corpse back to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, otherwise I can only call someone first and then come back."

"Nangong Biluo, what are you?" Han Ye obviously didn't want to, but Liu Futong said: "Han Ye, listen to Nangong's arrest, you take someone to carry the body to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, hurry up."

Liu Futong covered his mouth and nose with a pink handkerchief, looking impatient.Han Ye glared at Nangong Biluo, and could only ask his men to carry the body out of the Liu residence.Seeing Nangong Biluo still standing there with a smile on his face, Liu Futong frowned: "Are you still leaving?"

"Then I'll take my leave. Eunuch Liu, if you want to know who has the heart to assassinate you, you are welcome to come to the Metropolitan Procuratorate at any time." Nangong Biluo turned and left neither humble nor overbearing.

When Liu Futong saw her leave, he was so angry that he slapped the table, shaking the table to pieces with his palm, making the people in the room tremble, when he calmed down a bit, he immediately said: "Come here, prepare the sedan chair, and enter the palace. "Take people out of the lobby.

Feng Piaoxu and Yao Hong stood in the corner until everyone left, and then they slowly left Liu's residence.There was a sedan chair to carry them when they came, but no one cared about them when they went, and no one in Liu's residence cared about them. The guard opened the door and invited the two women out of the door, then closed the door.

The night was dark, and it took more than an hour to walk from Liu's Mansion to Fengyue Tower.

Yaohong said softly: "Miss Boss, I'm going to ask for a lantern."

Feng Piaoxu signaled no need, "Let's go."

The two were walking in the dark, and just after turning a few corners, a light was on in the corner ahead.The tall female catcher was already waiting there with a lantern.Seeing Feng Piaoxu and Yao Hong, he walked slowly from the corner to them.

"I'll take you back."

Feng Piaoxu: "Aren't you going back to the Metropolitan Procuratorate?"

"Don't worry, it's already been explained. When Han Ye gets there, someone will take over. Let's go."

Feng Piaoxu nodded, and walked side by side with Nangong Biluo to Fengyue Tower, Yaohong was two steps too late to disturb their conversation.

"How do you know that you are waiting for us with a lantern?" Feng Piaoxu was curious.

"I'm just worried. It's the only way you have to go back. I want to wait until you come out before leaving. I didn't expect that the Liu Mansion not only won't send you back, it won't even give you a light."

"Yaohong is here."

"I know, but it's been a rough night lately."

"It's not peaceful. If the Liu family sends it off, something will happen or something will happen. I trust Yaohong, so it's okay."

"You have a good attitude." Nangong Biluo frowned, "I originally thought that the Liu Mansion only arranged for bearers, and then secretly followed you back to send you back. It's really not safe recently, so be careful."

"Heh, Nangong really has a heart in arresting the head." Feng Piaoxu chuckled, and then asked, "What do you gain from leaving this time?"

Nangong Biluo looked to the right, looking at Feng Piaoxu's profile by the light of the lantern.The mask blocked most of her face, she slightly raised her eyes and looked at them like autumn water, Nangong Biluo slightly pulled the corner of her mouth, "It's a long story."

"There's still a long way to go, tell me, I'll listen."

Nangong Biluo looked away, "Okay, after Situ and I leave the capital..."

The moon hung on the eaves of the bell tower, and in the alleys, the light of a lantern moved forward slowly, holding firmly in the left hand of the female arrester.She held the sword in her right hand behind her waist, as if she was afraid of accidentally hitting the person next to her, and the angle of inclination was flatter than usual.

At night, the three of them were companions, and the female catcher's voice wafted softly.
