Placid Chang'an

Chapter 20 Take Over

With a face stuck to the cold purple sandalwood tabletop, Su Cen suddenly woke up. The rabbit was complacent under the tiger's mouth, but he really had a big heart.

Li Shi put one hand on the back of his neck, his movements were even gentle, but he seemed to be nailed to the table, unable to move a bit.

"One day," Li Shi looked at the people below him from top to bottom, "I'll give you a day, if you can't find another murderer for me, I'll use him to appease the people."

Su Cen was taken aback for a moment, got up, and was pushed down again, Li Shi's voice was unhurried: "If you regret it, you can leave."

go?

Where can he go?Now that he moves a finger, Gao Miao's life is gone.Don't mention this door, he didn't even have the capital to straighten up and look at Li Shi to negotiate. He was pressed on the table like an animal.

Su Cen gritted his teeth: "Then I will take full responsibility for this case, and the three provinces and six ministries will make it easier for me."

Li Shi smiled, "The tone is not small."

"I still need to borrow another person, the guard next to the prince, to deal with the assassin that day."

There was no movement from Li Shi's side, only one hand was gently pinching a tendon at the back of his neck, as if he was thinking, but also as if he was angry and wanted to tear him apart.

Being controlled by others, Su Cen didn't dare to speak out, the words had come to this point, and he could only resign himself to fate.

After an unknown amount of time, the person behind said, "Don't burn incense in the future."

"Huh?" Su Cen's rising tone didn't finish, one hand grabbed the collar of the back of his neck and yanked it down suddenly, the clothes were all stripped off, and his smooth flesh stood on the purple sandalwood table.

Su Cen's pupils suddenly dilated, he took a sharp breath, and then slowly let out a sigh of relief.

Did he agree?

Li Shi lightly brushed the straight spine with one finger, and the Moyu finger on the thumb was cold, making Su Cen tremble all over.

"the first time?"

Su Cen was stunned for a moment, these big men were very sophisticated, closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, my lord, I'm still...haven't been involved...it's pretty clean..."

"I don't mean this." Li Shi slowly moved his hand behind the man's neck and locked the man between his fingers, "Are you afraid of pain?"

Su Cen bit her lips: "I—ah!"

The people behind him didn't wait for a moment, they bullied them!

Su Cen felt his body being torn apart abruptly, and reflexively wanted to hide, his straight spine suddenly arched upwards, but his neck was locked and pressed against the table.

"Endure it." The people behind were unhurried, and their breath was not disturbed.

He was wrong, he wanted to escape, the pain of extinction was crushing, he couldn't bear it!

It's just that other people opened their mouths in vain like a fish in a rut, but they couldn't make any sound. The fishy sweetness deep in their throats blocked all the shouts.

What Gao Miao... what murderer... what does it have to do with him?

It's just a few lives... just... a few lives... just...

……

The memorials on the case were scattered on the ground, the inkstone with the eyebrow pattern was knocked over at some point, and He Mo gradually smudged on the red sandalwood tabletop, staining the side of Ruyu's face.

Li Shi raised his dazed face, looked at the slender eyelashes trembling and shedding, I don't know whether it was sweat or tears, and dipped a little cinnabar on his mouth with the bright red on the side of his face.

Leaning down, the lips and tongue lightly tapped, with strands of fishy and salty.

Li Shi straightened his clothes, got up and left.

The hand holding him was finally loosened, Su Cen slid down the corner of the table and fell to the ground. She couldn't tell whether it was pain or something else, staring at the complicated curtain above her head without feeling sad or happy.

I just feel... embarrassed.

Li Shi ordered outside the door: "After a stick of incense, go in and clean up."

Qi Lin nodded.

Su Cen couldn't help but smile wryly when he heard that, but he was considerate and even gave him time for a stick of incense.Lying on the ground and waiting for the consciousness of his body to come back, Su Cen slowly sat up and put on those ragged clothes one by one.

Qi Lin pushed the door in right after a stick of incense, and saw that the person had already finished dressing up. Although his face was ugly, his cold eyes were no different from when he had just led him in.

Qi Lin looked sideways at him slightly: "Young Master Su."

Su Cen cupped his hands in return: "Tomorrow there will be Lao Qi's bodyguard."

"The guest room is ready for the young master, please come with me."

Su Cen was taken aback, "I can go..."

"Are you leaving like this?" Qi Lin looked him up and down. Although the clothes and hair could be seen to have been taken care of, they were torn after all, and there was still unwashed cinnabar on his face, which was as bright as blood.

Qi Lin didn't intend to offend, but Su Cen still frowned uncomfortably, Qi Lin immediately looked away: "Come with me, this is also what the lord wants, and the lord will fulfill what he promised you tomorrow morning. "

The moonlight was like water, Qi Lin led Su Cen around most of the Longchi.Qi Lin deliberately slowed down his steps, still watching the people walking with difficulty through the reflection of Longchi, standing with one hand on his waist for support.

Since returning to Beijing, the master has become more and more reasonable in his actions. How long has it been since he has done such a cruel thing?

Qi Lin brought him to the residence and retreated in a timely manner. The room had already prepared hot water for food and drink. Su Cen couldn't wait to take off his clothes and go into the water, just to wash away his embarrassment.

Leaning against the bucket and looking at the room, the carved beams and pillars are exquisitely carved, which is simple and grand, but if you look closely at the details, the window screens, curtains, and mirror combs, it seems like a woman's mind.

Surrounded by wisps of fragrance that came from nowhere, it slowly eroded his mind, and he fell asleep within a short while.

Sliding along the side of the barrel to the bottom of the water, the water topped him and drowned him, with no way to call for help.

Why is it this dream again?

A hand was stretched out towards him, but this time it was even more beautiful. A black jade finger was moist and shiny, and picked up his arm.

Coming out of the water, there was no Gao Miao, no bloody face, the man looked at him with his brows stretched, with an indescribably relaxed atmosphere.

I slept soundly and soundly all night, without dreams or nightmares.

When he woke up the next day, there was a black jade finger on the bedside, it was black and pure, without any impurities.

one day.He will reverse the case for Gao Miao and arrest the real culprit during this day.

Standing up, adding medicinal herbs to the bathing water yesterday, the dull pain in his body was relieved a lot, he casually ate some snacks delivered last night, and Qi Lin was already waiting for him when he went out.

Su Cen ordered: "You help me find someone first."

Su Cen went straight to Dali Temple, and Song Jianguo had been waiting for him for a long time. Seeing him coming back empty-handed, he raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Su Zhuangyuan, where is the murderer?"

Su Cen smiled back, took out the black jade finger and said, "I'm in charge of this case."

"You... Su Cen, you..." Song Jiancheng was dumbfounded. He naturally recognized Prince Ning's token, but he still reached out to take it in disbelief, "You are..."

Su Cen put it back in his bag, "I'll find a doctor to examine Gao Miao's injuries immediately. As for Mr. Song..." Su Cen smiled slightly, "I've been working hard for days, let's rest today."

"Su Cen, you..." Song Jiancheng was choked for a long time before finally uttering this sentence, glaring at the person, and passing by Su Cen's side, he said in a low voice: "Lick honey with the knife edge, be careful to flash your tongue!"

"My tongue is very good, Lord Lao Song will worry about it."

Song Jiancheng walked away in a huff.

When the people left, Su Cen sat down in the main hall, looked at the people in the hall, and said: "Bring back all the gatekeepers who were on duty at night on the eighth day of April and the neighbors of Wu Deshui in Guiyifang, and interrogate them one by one. There are enemies, who did you contact on the eighth day of the fourth lunar month, where did you drink, when did you arrive in Dongshi, and when did you leave."

Everyone looked at each other for a moment, and they all took orders: "Yes."

When the crowd dispersed, Su Cen looked at Xiao Sun, who was in charge of the front office, bringing tea and water, and said, "Come with me to the etiquette department."
