Don't run away to touch porcelain

The sound of the watchman beating his clapper came from a distance, which contrasted with the tranquility of the city of Shazhou. The streets and roads that were familiar during the day were transformed into black outlines, and the sound of rustling footsteps passing by in the alleys was barely audible.Because of the curfew, Ji Canghai and Daoxiang did not dare to walk on the main road, so they had to shuttle quietly between the narrow alleys. Daoxiang led the way silently, looking back at Ji Canghai from time to time, and looked at him with a touch of peace of mind smile.Ji Canghai followed Daoxiang out of a few streets without making a sound, and then asked in a low voice, "You don't have many days in Shazhou City, and the road is so dark, I don't think you can recognize it very clearly." Daoxiang was slightly taken aback when he heard this , and then replied with a soft smile, "I haven't noticed even if you don't tell me, I think Brother Xu Kai is dragging me around every day these days, so he is already so familiar with this place." Ji Canghai hummed, no No more words, just followed Daoxiang to continue walking, Daoxiang slowed down a little and stood side by side with Ji Canghai slightly, looking at Ji Canghai with some expectation, "Brother Chen, I will return to my brother's place in the future, and I will see you again ?"

"If you want, you can naturally come to us."

Daoxiang looked at Ji Canghai shyly, "Brother Chen, I actually..." Before he could finish speaking, Daoxiang's eyes flashed, and a dagger in his hand shone coldly under the moonlight, and the light of the knife shot straight at him. Ji Canghai scratched his neck, Ji Canghai took a step back calmly, the distance was enough to avoid Daoxiang's attack.In the alley, Ji Canghai stood with his hands behind his back, under the moonlight, both of them could see each other's expression clearly, Ji Canghai looked at Daoxiang calmly, "What is your purpose?"

Dao Xiang raised her dagger again, "Kill you!"

As soon as the words fell, there were some faint screeching sounds from the front and back of the alley, a dozen masked men in black poured into the alley, Ye Huizhi squatted on the eaves and looked at it eagerly, "Yo, big hand."

Yu Hong fiddled with the small objects in his hand, "Is this considered a big deal?" After speaking, the fireworks in his hand soared into the sky, and a silver-white plum blossom bloomed in the night sky. Ye Huizhi fell behind Daoxiang without anyone noticing it, and easily grabbed Daoxiang's chin from behind and unloaded it, throwing it directly to the corner of the wall like throwing garbage , To prevent her from escaping, he kicked his legs before he went to deal with the man in black, without any sympathy for him.Daoxiang's kung fu is very ordinary, and she is a character that attracts attention. If she is strong in martial arts, Ye Huizhi will definitely see through it at first sight. Compared with Daoxiang and the other men in black, they are real masters. Chu Ruanjian and Yu Hong stood on each side, sandwiching Ji Canghai in the middle. When the two confronted each other, there were already chaotic and noisy footsteps outside the alley, and soon the whole alley was blocked by the garrison and the Dujingsi. Ye Hui Zhizhi stepped on the shoulder of a man in black and took a rough look. There must have been hundreds of people. Sure enough, Yu Hong's words that he disliked him and exaggerated after seeing more than a dozen people were very sincere.

Before coming here, Yu Hong had already told Ye Huizhi that his task was to maim, cry, and collapse the assassins of Ji Canghai, but he could not kill them. This fight is very painful, and they have to grab weapons and unload their jaws. They can't wait to find the right place to knock them all out, then arrange them in a row and tie them up one by one to see if there is any poison hidden in their mouths.

Ji Canghai wanted to help, but when he saw Ye Huizhi's long and thin sword making colorful and exquisite shadows, he simply withdrew his hand and stood quietly to admire it. He always knew that Ye Huizhi's sword was good, and he still remembered Ye Huizhi's sword. Just after he moved into the General's Mansion, there was a snowy day when Ye Huizhi danced recklessly with dead branches as swords in his small courtyard. Snow, like the river and the sea, Ji Canghai felt that he was a calm temperament. He happened to see that scene at that time, but he was dazed for a long time until Ye Huizhi found him and smiled, "There is snow, there are plums. , I have wine, would the general be willing to be my companion?"

The moonlight was shining, no one noticed, the handsome general who had always been cold-faced, had a shadow in his eyes as gentle as the moonlight.

The matter calmed down very quickly. Apart from the two masters Yu Hong and Ye Huizhi, Du Jingsi also had some good masters. In addition, the assassin was surrounded by the defenders and he was inevitably flustered. The assassin was quickly subdued. He ordered his men to take away all the captured assassins. Ye Huizhi thought that there was a secret interrogation, so he didn't ask any more, and directly dragged his general back to the mansion and went to sleep.

On the way back, Ye Huizhi scratched his head trying to come up with an excuse to persuade their general not to be fooled by beauty anymore, if it was too clear, he might lose face for his general, if it was too cryptic, he was afraid This upright character couldn't understand, until he was about to walk back to Yu's mansion, Ye Huizhi choked out, "General, it doesn't make sense for us to go like this, let me tell you a story?"

Ji Canghai hummed as an answer, and Ye Huizhi began to tell the classic story he had thought hard, "It is said that there was once a scholar who was always seduced by a girl at night. He's dead." Ji Canghai waited for a while and didn't say anything, so he couldn't help asking, "Gone?"

Ye Huizhi nodded, "No more." After thinking for a while, he continued, "General, don't think this story is simple, but its meaning is not. If you don't know the southeast and northwest after a few words, it is likely to be a female fairy who is specially here to kill people, such as lotus, rice, and cotton. I think, men should spend more time with men, so that Only in order to keep safe."

If Ji Canghai were replaced by Ye Jinglan, Ye Huizhi might have been hung up and beaten more than 100 times, but Ji Canghai didn't react too much, he just replied calmly, "I know she has a problem, I just want to Let's see what her purpose is."

Ye Huizhi was surprised, "How do you know?"

"intuition."

Ye Huizhi: ...

Putting aside his general's mysterious intuition, Ye Huizhi continued to educate, "Since you suspect that there is something wrong with her, you should discuss it with us. How can you act without authorization and risk yourself? Do you know how dangerous you are?"

Ji Canghai looked at Ye Huizhi, "Then you came to discuss with me?"

Ye Huizhi: ...

Silently wiping away bitter tears, Ye Huizhi felt that his general would not be able to chat happily tonight, so the two of them returned to the temporary residence in silence, turned one left and the other right, went back to their rooms to pack up and sleep.Ye Huizhi stayed up all night and was inexplicably depressed. He slept until noon before getting up. When he packed up and went to the kitchen to look for food, he happened to meet Xu Kai who was stealing. Xu Kai pulled Ye Huizhi, mysteriously Say I have good news and bad news, which do you want to hear?

"good news."

"The good news is that Mr. Liu discussed something with our general and Young Master Yu in the room this morning. After the discussion, Mr. Liu came to inform me, saying that the case of private salt will be closed in a few days, and let me fight it." The spirit is always on standby."

Ye Huizhi had no interest in the private salt case at all. The fish had already been hooked last night, so the bait was useless. It took a few days to figure out how to close the case. He found a piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth. Ye Huizhi continued to ask, "What about the bad news?"

"The bad news is that I heard that Young Master Yu is actually a member of Governor Jingsi. In order to protect his identity and prevent the world from suspecting him, when he is arrested in the case of private salt, he and Young Master Yu will be arrested and put in prison together."

Ye Huizhi's cake sprayed all over the floor, "Why?"

"Because you have a close relationship with Hou Bin, the principal criminal of the private salt case, we need to investigate carefully." Liu Longxiang walked in from the door, found a plate of fresh fruit and took it away, and looked at Ye Huizhi with a sinister smile before parting, "Are you together?" Master Yu, please stay in prison."

Ye Huizhi looked at Xu Kai in surprise, "Was that meek Liu Longxiang just now?"

Xu Kai nodded sympathetically.

Ye Huizhi asked hesitantly, "Has he been taken away?"

Xu Kai thought about it, and said that Master Xiaoliu seemed to have changed since he knew that Young Master Yu was the director of Yu.

Ye Huizhi held up the cake and wailed, "You're a sinner!"

Ye Huizhi always thought that Liu Longxiang was an orderly, soft-spoken and gentle character, but since he was caught in the prison, he thought that he might have misunderstood Xiaoliu Zhuangyuan too deeply.Yu Hong once said that Liu Longxiang has a lot of ways to handle the private salt case, such as buying a few scholars to deceive the people to testify tens of thousands of people; Everyone was arrested and tortured to extract a confession. Yu Hong thought that Liu Longxiang would use one of them, but he didn't expect Liu Longxiang to use all three. Xiaoliu Zhuangyuan also has a lot of face in the eyes of scholars, so the local famous Confucian scholars made a fuss, inciting a few times to make the people resentful, and signed the book of thousands of people. Everyone is arrested and tortured in a big prison. Even if there are some who are stubborn and refuse to recruit at first, if one of them can't bear the trick, they will be defeated like a mountain and everyone will admit it. Within three days, the private salt The case was handled as an iron case in which the stolen goods were obtained with justification and evidence.

Ye Huizhi and Yu Hong sat leaning against the wall, looked at Hou Bin who was miserable because of the severe punishment, and looked at each other again, both of them saw the word "worse" in each other's eyes, Liu Longxiang said It was pretending to lock them up for a few days, but in fact, someday someone was severely tortured, so they were locked up to empathize with the current education, and the method was very sadistic, cruel and insane.

Ye Huizhi lowered his voice and spoke to Yu Hong, "It's fine for Liu Longxiang to take revenge on you, but why should I be dragged down? It can be seen that he is not so thorough in his affairs, and he has wronged me too much."

Yu Hong smiled, "Do you know that there is a charge of failing to report the knowledge?"

Ye Huizhi continued to shrink back to the corner, farther away from Hou Bin who was lying on the ground like a puddle of mud, confused and talking nonsense, "What right does Liu Longxiang despise you, Du Jingsi, when it comes to being ruthless and merciless, it's indistinguishable from you guys .”

Yu Hong looked sideways, and Ye Huizhi was playing tricks, "Whatever you're looking at, it's you." After speaking, he sighed, "When will we be released?"

"Based on your and my superficial identities, it will take seven or eight days for our family to know the news as soon as possible, and it will take another day or two to walk around in the imperial city, and it will take another seven or eight days for the favors in the imperial city to be sold to Liu Longxiang in Shazhou City. , I'm afraid we won't be let out in half a month, after all, we have to do enough acting."

Ye Huizhi calculated that the days were a little bit broken, he hadn't eaten anything delicious for five whole days, and what's even more tragic was that he might still not see Ruyi Cake, Shrimp Emperor Dumpling, Qiqiao Dim Sum, Hehuan Soup, a few pieces of radish cake is fine, Ye Huizhi turned his face to look at Yu Hong, "Suddenly I feel that life is nothing to love."

"Then I will tell you a secret before I die." Yu Hong was in a good mood. "I heard from Ji Jiangjun that he really treats you differently from others. He treats you like... a younger brother!"

Ye Huizhi looked at Yu Hong sincerely, "Do you have an uncle, your uncle's!"
