Placid Chang'an

Su Cen followed the figure of the young lady and looked upstairs, all the upper floors were suites and elegant seats, the young lady went up to the second floor and went straight in, and entered a small room near the railing, with a light gauze curtain hanging over it , the figure of a person in the tent can be vaguely seen, although the situation inside is vague and unrecognizable, but I always feel that there is a pair of eyes looking at him from behind the tent.

"Second Young Master..." Ah Fu called out cautiously.

The second young master stared at this young lady all the time, could it be... Seeing the second young master's momentum, the chances of being able to go to high school this year are not high, and when the time comes to raise a young lady in Chang'an City... If the old master Knowing that, he should consider saving money to buy a coffin for himself.

Su Cen turned around and asked with a smile, "What do you think of him?"

"?!"really!

A Fu swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "Second young master, if you don't take good care of me on the way, you can beat me and scold me. A Fu entered Su's house at the age of ten. He didn't dare to be lazy for a day, and he will definitely serve you wholeheartedly in the future. I beg Second Young Master to spare my life!"

By the end of the speech, tears flowed down my face.

Su Cen: "..."

Where is this going?

Suddenly there was a loud sound upstairs, the cup fell to the ground, just as Su Cen turned his head, he saw the young man being pushed down from upstairs with a palm, everyone downstairs screamed in surprise, and saw the young man fell straight to the ground, close to the ground With a quick turn of his figure, he landed steadily.

Goodbye, a person upstairs flew down, heading straight for the young man.

Xiao Guan dodged sideways, avoiding a powerful blow, and his figure dodged behind the man strangely, closely following the punch.But the man who came after him was not a vegetarian either, the sharp knife came out of its sheath in a flash, and the hilt of the sword was pushed back, and it hit the young man's waist heavily.

Xiao Guan frowned in pain, but fortunately, his reaction was still quick. When the sword's edge came, he quickly backed away, knowing that he was not the opponent, and with a glance from the corner of his eye, he dodged sideways behind Su Cen.

Su Cen, who was concentrating on sipping tea, touched the edge of the sharp knife with a chill on his neck.

Su Cen: "..."

"Get out of the way!" the sword-bearer said coldly.

Of course he wanted to let go, if it wasn't for a hidden arrow against his waist.

He definitely didn't read the almanac when he went out today, otherwise he should take a bath at home, burn incense and fast for a day.

I saw the young man behind him still looking very pitiful and said softly: "My lord, save me!"

Su Cen squinted at the sharp blade that was close to his neck, carefully pushed it away a few inches with his fingertips, and then took a closer look at the person in front of him. He was eight feet tall, his eyes were light amber, and he was dressed in guards. Dressed up, Su Cen couldn't help swallowing his saliva because of the awe-inspiring aura on his body, and said cautiously: "Brother, if you have something to say, it will be fine if you hurt innocent people with knives and guns."

Only then did Ah Fu come to his senses, he took a step forward and was just waiting for a theory, when he was scared back by a look.

The guard said coldly: "This man assassinated my master and handed him over."

Xiao Guan poked his head out from behind Su Cen and argued, "It's obvious that your master wanted to misbehave with him in broad daylight, and was so angry that he wanted to kill him to silence him. Everyone judge, is there any law in Chang'an City?"

In view of the fact that the young man had just walked downstairs, and his face and figure were obvious to all, everyone believed the young man's words one after another, and instead of daring to speak loudly, they all privately pointed at the guard.

The young man passed Su Cen and raised his eyebrows at the guard and smiled, but the indescribable charm was only exchanged for a sharp look.

Su Cen took the opportunity to glance upstairs. The man was still hidden behind the curtain, holding a cup as motionless as a mountain. Although he couldn't see the details, he still felt that the man was looking at him.He could even read a funny smile from that shadowy figure.

An unknown fire erupted out of nowhere, Su Cen withdrew his gaze, and originally only wanted to get away as soon as possible, but suddenly took a step forward: "You said he wanted to assassinate your master, but he said it was you who wanted to rape him. I won't hand it over to you until I figure out what's going on."

Xiao Guan was taken aback for a moment, and quietly withdrew the hidden arrow in his hand.

Ah Fu secretly yelled, because Dongshi is adjacent to the "Three Great Neighborhoods" of the imperial city, most of the dignitaries live here, and a roof tile can kill several officials, not to mention this person At first glance, it was not someone who was waiting for someone else. The master upstairs might be someone important. He hurriedly tugged on Su Cen's sleeve, but was flung away with a flick of his hand.

Su Cen continued: "You said he assassinated your master, so what is the hatred between him and your master? Is it poisoning or assassination? Where is the murder weapon? What evidence is there?"

"The murder weapon is an inch-long steel needle. It was shot into the roof and disappeared. As for any hatred or grievance," the guard narrowed his eyes: "Of course we will know after we catch it and interrogate it."

"That means you have no evidence." Su Cen raised her lips and smiled, "If you take people back, then how do we know if you will ruin them and torture them into tricks? At that time, whether it is right or wrong depends entirely on you." Open your mouth, who can he appeal to if he has grievances?"

Everyone said yes one after another, Xiao Guan hurriedly nodded behind them.

The guard glanced coldly, and there was no words around him for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "This man should have a mechanism for firing hidden weapons. You can tell by taking off his clothes."

Su Cen was taken aback, and looked back at the young man, who looked pitiful, and wiped away the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, "Look, big guy, this man still wants to be innocent." Picking up people’s clothes every day, even though I’m not a young girl who hasn’t left the court, I definitely have no reason to let you insult me ​​like this!”

The guard was unmoved: "Either take off the clothes, or I will take them away."

The young man looked at Su Cen for help.

Su Cen sighed secretly, the person must still have the things with him, and he would be doomed if he was found out. He thought that he had followed the thief ship, so he turned around helplessly and said, "I have experienced this person just now." I don’t have anything on me.” Then he glanced at the people around him: “If you don’t believe me, many people here have checked it for you. Those brothers who have just started to do things, please come out and be a witness. Have you ever touched this place? What kind of opportunity does a person have?"

A few people shook their heads, thinking that this was an admission that they were a libertine, and they all stopped moving.

But those few just now are enough, Su Cen said with a smile: "Look, we all said no, if you still don't believe me and insist on stealing people's clothes, it will inevitably arouse people's imagination, maybe you think that your master didn't succeed and let people see you first Just a quick glance?"

The guard frowned, "Presumptuous!"

"Qi Lin."

A deep voice came from upstairs, like a jar of old wine knocked over in the thick night.

Su Cen followed the voice and looked up, only to see a person wearing a cloud brocade with floating light and dark patterns come down from the upstairs with his hands behind his back. .

The guard bowed his hands respectfully and retreated to the side.

Su Cen felt her neck was a little stiff, and her heart beat a little faster for no reason.Just now when facing the guard, he already felt oppressed. This man just uttered two words, and the surroundings were silent for a moment. He was born with a forceful aura. Su Cen felt his throat rolling, but he couldn't even utter a word. come out.

Fortunately, that person just glanced at Su Cen and said, "Let's go," leaving behind everyone who was stunned and left slowly.

Su Cen followed closely and turned back, only to see that the man paused at the door, and glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally. Those eyes were bottomless, but Su Cen still read the mockery from them.

It was like the dismissive ridicule when watching the frog at the bottom of the well slap the hatchet in front of him.

Su Cen was stunned for a long time before recovering, suddenly feeling inexplicably irritable.

He grabbed the cold tea on the table and drank it in one gulp, threw down a few copper coins and turned to leave. Ah Fu followed closely behind, and only after walking a dozen steps did he realize that the young man followed him.

Su Cen stopped walking and frowned, "Why are you following me?"

The young man had a meaningful smile on his lips: "You helped me, shouldn't I come out and thank you?"

Su Cen walked and said, "I don't want to help you, I just don't like the people upstairs."

"Oh?" Xiao Kuan raised his eyebrows.

"Come to the tea house to drink tea, but choose the private seat upstairs, can't you just go back to your own home to drink in peace? Look at his clothes, it doesn't look like he is short of tea at home."

"Do you know who he is?"

"I don't know who he is," Su Cen narrowed his eyes suddenly, "but I know that you are indeed going to assassinate him."

The little boy was taken aback.

"You are not a clerk at the teahouse at all, otherwise I told you that you would not be indifferent when Yuqian tea was pretended to be Mingqian tea in your teahouse, not to mention that it was Mingqian tea. If you were a real teahouse clerk, you would not defend your shop , that can only show that you have other plans for going there. And when you walked downstairs, although you intentionally or unintentionally teased others, you deliberately avoided the right hand holding the copper pot. Put it in the right sleeve."

Xiao Guan touched the right sleeve subconsciously, there was indeed a sleeve arrow that could shoot steel needles hidden there, and his eyes became more interested: "Then you still help me?"

"I said I'm not helping you, I just can't get used to that person." Thinking of that look, Su Cen couldn't help becoming irritable again, walked forward a few steps and then turned around: "I advise you not to follow me, he Just because I didn't catch you in the teahouse just now doesn't mean I let you go, you should run for your life if you have the time."

"After he didn't catch me in the teahouse, he wouldn't even try to catch me," Xiao Guan smiled, "My name is Qu Ling'er, anyway, thank you today, and..."

Qu Ling'er suddenly leaned into the man's ear and whispered: "That man really likes men."

Su Cen was in a daze, then turned around, the dusk gradually closed, that Qu Ling'er disappeared out of thin air, Su Cen touched his ears, the numbness was still there, that sentence just now...was it an auditory hallucination?
