a tavern

In one night, the Zhou family was destroyed!The news quickly spread throughout the town as if it had grown wings.However, most people only saw that the government and army surrounded Zhou's house, the servants were dismissed, the family members were put in shackles, imprisoned, and the family was ransacked.In just one afternoon, the once powerful Zhou Mansion in Jiuxing Town withered in a blink of an eye.

Quite a few people became curious and came forward to ask the reason, only to say: "King Xi handles the case, all idlers and others disperse!"

Knowing the name, street restaurant, teahouse and bookstore, everyone started discussing again.King Xi?Where is it sacred?After asking around, I only know that he seems to be one of the three kings of Qi State, and I don't know anything else.However, the Zhou family dared to provoke the prince to be angry, and personally led the army to search the Zhou mansion. It seems that the matter is not trivial.

Three to five months later, someone inquired from relatives in the capital that the case of Zhou's family caused a great disturbance in the court, and even ordinary people in the capital had heard about it.The reason was not the personal grievances between the Zhou family and King Xi, but the fact that the Minister Zhou of the Zhou Mansion corrupted the law and traded power for money. Once his whereabouts were revealed, he ended up like this.I heard that the key to this case is an account book.The case of the Zhou family's corruption of ink involved a lot, pulling out radishes and bringing out mud, many officials were investigated and dealt with, and the capital was thrown into chaos for a while.

The common people have always hated corrupt officials and bad officials. Everyone gave the Zhou family a "should" word, and this matter disappeared silently in the years, as if it had never existed.Of course, this is something.

Although many people personally participated in this matter, they were completely ignorant.Those who knew clearly, also kept silent under Xi Wang Qingluo's order.

Most of the other guests who were drugged woke up slowly in the morning of the second day, which shows the strong effect of the drug.However, the traditional custom of having a bride's bridal chamber was missed in everyone's drowsiness, and everyone expressed deep regret and apology. "It's all because Boss Wen's wine is so good!" Someone teased him, and Wen Cheng agreed with a "hehe" that it would be good if he could hide it from the past.

"Prince Xi, welcome to the humble house! King Xi, please walk slowly!" Some people have small minds and can't let go of being cheated for a long time.Even though he was extremely grateful in his heart, he still showed his strength and refused to give up a single point.Two hands, propped open, blocked the door of his small courtyard, and there was no sign of welcome in his mouth.

One afternoon yesterday plus half a day this morning, I finally finished my official business.Qing Luo retreated from the left and right, and only brought Li Zhixiu and Ji Han to visit the door, but was stopped at the door.As a powerful party in the dynasty, when someone blocked her at the door, Qing Luo smiled instead of anger: "Well, you little boy, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you dare to sing against me?" In the voice, she could hear that she was very happy.If at this moment, Wen Cheng had completely respected and flattered her, her attitude would have been different.

"Hmph! My lord, I don't know you, so don't try to get close to me!" I don't look straight at people at all. In such a big world, there are very few people who dare to say such things to King Xi face to face.This desperate person is almost out of her mind, even Wen Yi, who just came out of the main entrance, was sweating for her.

Those who don't know, just say it.Now that it is known, not to mention flattery and awe, at least the minimum respect for the superior is at least due.

Fortunately, what Qingluo wants is what they usually treat. What she needs is friends, not respectful subordinates and snobs.

"Is your injury better?" Yesterday, Qing Luo seemed to see some blood on Wen Cheng's arm, and asked with concern.

Reach out and don't hit the smiling person, Qing Luo can be said to be very caring.Wen Cheng perfunctorily "hummed" twice, indicating that he was fine.It was indeed just a skin wound with a little blood left.At that time, it was only used to scare Wen Yi, but those people didn't do anything cruel.When she came back, Wen Yi personally cleaned her wound, applied medicine, and bandaged it. Although it hadn't healed yet, there was nothing wrong with it.

Just a naughty kid.Qing Luo knew how to deal with Wen Cheng, and beckoned to her mysteriously: "Come on, Xiao Chengzi, come here and see what gift I brought you?"

As he spoke, he took a palm-sized box from Ji Han's hand: "Absolutely good stuff, do you want it? Don't forget it!" Pretending to hand it back to Ji Han.

Is this posture playing with children?So insulting!Wen Cheng made up his mind, and said righteously: "A majestic prince, how can he return the things he gave away?" In fact, Wen Cheng was a little dissatisfied, for such a big prince, it was too careless to do so.

Reach out and grab it, don't want it for nothing, let's talk when you get it.If it's not good, it's not too late to go back.Wen Cheng deeply felt that he shouldn't be bribed so easily, but his curiosity about the contents of the box was really no match.Looking at the outside of the box, he secretly guessed: "The precious jade of the city? Or gold nuggets? Silver notes?" Such a big box must not be able to hold much.

Quickly opened it and took a look: "Cut, isn't it the cyan token that Qing Luo gave her last time? It's exactly the same, why give another one? Let's eat it!" The disappointment was beyond words, and there was a little bit of disgust.

"Oh! This guy!" Ji Han couldn't stand it any longer, and said angrily, "King Xi's warrant is hard to buy with a thousand dollars, and how many powerful people can't get it with their brains, how dare you show your face?" He didn't speak rudely, After all, Wen Cheng rescued her when she was penniless.If it was an ordinary person, he would have already thrown a knife to his upper body, such as Zhou Moumou who intended to reveal the identity of King Xi.

"Really? Then... can I exchange it for real gold and silver? I have two yuan, so I gave it away?" It's not that Wen Cheng lost money, it's that Ji Han's words are too tempting.

"Ahem..." Qing Luo really didn't want to hit her and shatter her dream, so she pointed to the small green token: "This is the one I gave you back then!"

Wen Yi really couldn't see it, and felt that Wen Cheng needed to save it: "Yes, Ah Cheng, after I selected a good time, I asked someone to bring this token to invite sister Zhixiu and the others! Some time ago, Chen Didn’t the uncle mention going to the capital to visit relatives when he came to the restaurant for dinner? I asked him to help me along the way!”

Regarding Wen Yi, Wen Cheng has always said everything he knows, and he has nothing to say.The token was in Wen Cheng's hands, and before it was warmed up, she handed it over to Wen Yi for safekeeping.Isn't this about getting married?Wen Yi suddenly remembered this, and wanted to surprise Wen Cheng, so he secretly planned this "invitation".Needless to say, Wen Yi really has a heart!

It was also thanks to her "surprise act" that a group of them survived.This time, if Qing Luo and the others hadn't arrived in time, even if Wen Cheng and Wen Yi could escape, they would regret it for the rest of their lives.

While Wen Cheng was in a daze, Wen Yi dragged her away, and invited her to sit under the tree in Qingluo Three People's Courtyard, made tea and served various snacks, and they chatted.

It turned out that after receiving the token and letter from the city gate guards, and knowing that Wen Cheng and Wen Yi were about to get married, Qing Luo joyfully sent someone to Jiuxing Town to inquire about the situation.I just waited for a few days before the wedding to come here and attend on time, because Wen Yi's letter told me to try my best to be there on the same day, so as to give Wen Cheng a big surprise.Unexpectedly, the dispatcher found out that the Zhou family and Wen Cheng were in trouble, and wanted to do harm to them.

Qing Luo is a protectionist, and the force behind the Zhou family, the Hua family represented by King Wei, has always been at odds with the Qing family.It shouldn't be a problem for a small minion, as long as you find a good name, it's easy.Taking the opportunity to beat the Hua family a little bit, during Qing Luo's absence, they were not less aggressive.

Collect evidence, ask your majesty for an order, and after the arrangements are made, immediately go to Jiuxing Town. It should have arrived half a day ago.Unexpectedly, on the way, I encountered a group of killers, which delayed me for some time.

When Qing Luo said it, it was an understatement. It was dangerous, and it was not enough for outsiders to understand.

Hearing this, Wen Yi didn't speak, just took out a book from her cuff, and handed it to Qing Luo: "Sister Qing Luo, look!" She knew very well that this is the real sharp weapon that can hit the opponent's central joints .

Roughly flipping through a few pages, Qing Luo kept clapping her hands, saying yes...

It wasn't until the guards of King Xi's Mansion carried two big boxes into the door one after the other, that Qing Luo realized that high five was their agreed signal.Originally, after teasing Wen Cheng for a while, he took out the gift... Now it's all right, but Wen Cheng is very happy...

That is to say, I don't know, but if he knew, Wen Cheng would definitely look disgusted: "Tsk tsk, King Xi really has unique hobbies!"...
