"What did you say?"

"I, I wanted to go to Master Jiu as soon as possible, but she just said she could help me, so I didn't go to Pinxiang Tower." Zuo Ping lowered his head, not daring to go to Jinling Jiu, "It's my subordinate's fault, please punish me .”

Jin Lingjiu held the teacup and threw it out coldly. The teacup shattered at Zuo Ping's feet: "You should be punished! How many times have I taught you that you must do what you have to do, and you must not leave anything behind for others." The handle, her heart, I hope that if something goes wrong on my side, she will help you! If you forget to deal with the aftermath today, troubles will come to you through this mistake in the future. You really think that others have no brains !"

Zuo Ping was terrified, knowing it was his own negligence, he knelt down on the ground directly: "Please punish me, master."

There was a shattered piece of porcelain at his feet, and he knelt down suddenly, right on the piece of porcelain, frowned in pain, but didn't let out a sound of pain.

After a while, Jin Lingjiu smelled a faint smell of blood, and realized what he had done. He was angry and had a headache: "Are you going to cripple yourself first, and then receive my punishment? Why don't you hurry up?" To deal with the aftermath, let the shopkeeper cover his mouth tightly!"

Zuo Ping seemed to be pardoned, and hurriedly got up and rushed out of the room, ignoring the injury on his leg, Jin Lingjiu frowned again.

Blood was stained on the broken porcelain pieces, Jin Lingjiu looked at them glaringly, and was about to get some tools to clean them up. He had a keen sense of smell, so he deliberately opened the window to diffuse the smell before leaving the room.

Borrowed cleaning tools from the inn, the shopkeeper knew that he had a rich family and an extraordinary status, and eagerly expressed that he could find someone to help him clean, but Jin Lingjiu refused, he didn't like outsiders entering his room, even if it was a temporary residence.

Going upstairs, to the door of Room No. [-] in Tianzi, Jin Lingjiu was about to push the door open, but when he was about to touch the doorknob, his eyes froze suddenly.

There was a short laugh in the room, and the back door opened from the inside: "Brother, do you want to stand at the door all the time?"

Jin Lingjiu looked at the smiling woman in front of him, and his face became colder: "You still dare to come."

The woman didn't mind his indifference at all, she let go of the hand holding the door, and walked backwards: "I'm afraid that if I don't come, I will let others take the blame."

She was dressed in blue and gray clothes, her long hair was tied into a high ponytail at the back of her head, her eyebrows were not as gentle as those of ordinary daughters, and when she raised her eyes with a heroic look, she was actually more handsome than a man.

Jin Lingjiu closed the door, took tools to clean the tiles on the floor, and said angrily, "I've finished memorizing."

"Hiss, let me just say, how could there be such a thing in your room." She muttered softly, and couldn't help frowning when she saw the blood on the porcelain, her tone became more serious, "Senior brother, this matter has nothing to do with him." It's okay, I let him go."

After tidying up all the broken porcelain pieces, Jin Lingjiu looked at her directly: "If he doesn't answer, can you forcefully stop him?"

The woman was anxious: "But it can't be punished like this!"

Jin Lingjiu suddenly squinted his eyes, looked displeased, and said coldly, "It's not up to others to intervene in what I do. If you came here for this matter, you can leave now."

The woman seemed to be frightened by him, she didn't speak any more, and stood quietly by the table.

Neither of them spoke, the room became quiet, Jin Lingjiu casually took out a book to read, the woman stood by the table, not daring to move, the atmosphere was not broken until Zuo Ping came back.

Zuo Ping frowned, and his expression changed instantly after entering the door: "Why are you here?"

The woman silently looked away, and secretly pointed her finger in the direction of Jinling Jiu, Zuo Ping's heart skipped a beat, and she was about to kneel down again: "Master Jiu, forgive me!"

Jin Lingjiu waved his hand with a palm wind, and brushed Zuo Ping's clothes, Zuo Ping froze, and slowly stood up straight, gritted his teeth and reported: "This subordinate just went to Pinxianglou, and happened to see the shopkeeper's delivery. After Pei Zhe came out, the subordinates waited for him to leave and asked the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper said he was looking for you."

When he said a word, Jin Lingjiu's face became colder, and finally his eyes were so fierce that he wanted to pluck the flesh from the person.

It was his own negligence, so it's good to be able to remedy it. When he saw Pei Zhe and the shopkeeper coming out of the Pinxiang Building together, Zuo Ping's heart sank completely. What the shopkeeper said later was tantamount to a death sentence. One step at a time Wrong, once he makes a mistake, it is very likely that Jin Lingjiu's entire plan will be ruined.

Knowing that he had caused a catastrophe, without waiting for Jin Lingjiu to speak, Zuo Ping took the initiative to ask for punishment: "This matter is a mistake of the subordinate, please punish Jiuye."

Jin Lingjiu remained silent, as if he was thinking about something. Slowly, his face became more relaxed, and he waved his hands: "Remember it first, and then go to the building to receive the punishment."

This is already the lightest solution, and the left screen quickly responded.

The room was silent.

Zuo Ping stood with the woman, with Jin Lingjiu on his back, the woman quietly gestured to him, pointed to his legs, and asked how he was, did he deal with it?Zuo Ping had never done this kind of thing in front of Jin Lingjiu, he shook his head at her, not only answering, but also telling her not to do it again.

"I saw the person, so I asked what I should ask, what are you still doing here? Get out of here quickly." Jin Lingjiu said coldly.

Both of them were startled, realizing that their small movements had been discovered, and there was a trace of embarrassment on their faces.

The woman rubbed her nose, and said from left to right: "I have never been to Huaizhou City before, I want to hang out here, with my brother, okay? Or let Zuo Ping accompany me."

Jin Lingjiu didn't even think about it, and directly refused: "No."

Woman: "...Jinling Nine!"

Jin Lingjiu looked at her coldly: "I received your letter on the night of Shangyuan, counting the time, you should have arrived a few days ago, Huaizhou City is such a big place, if you want to go shopping, you have already finished shopping. Do you know what you want to stay and do? I endured you before and didn't interfere with what you wanted to do. We each rely on our own abilities and have nothing to do with each other, but you have destroyed my plan today. Since you have meddled in my affairs, don't Blame me for interfering in your actions."

Zuo Ping couldn't help persuading him, "You'd better leave."

Something has gone wrong with the plan, Jin Lingjiu is now in a fit of anger, how can he tolerate the culprit who ruined the plan.

I can't believe that even Zuo Ping betrayed her. The woman was so angry that she slapped the table with a slap: "I want to stay, I must stay, not only to stay, but also to follow you!"

Jin Lingjiu said calmly, "Mu Jiao, give me a reason."

The woman, that is, Mu Jiao, scratched her hair, pulled a stool and sat down, and said angrily: "Okay, okay, let me tell you, it's my father who asked me to come."

Jin Lingjiu raised his eyelids: "Master asked you to come?"

Mu Jiao: "Father heard that you were leaving. He was afraid that something would happen to you alone, so he asked me to protect you with Zuo Ping. The thing that ruined your plan has nothing to do with him. It's because I don't want you to continue. The easier way, I don't understand why you choose a more difficult path, why do you pin your hopes on outsiders? The most annoying thing is that Dad even supports you!"

Jin Lingjiu ignored her, and rubbed his knuckles: "Since the master has given orders, then you can stay, Zuo Ping, take her to open a room, and treat your own injuries by the way."

Mu Jiao wanted to say something, but Zuo Ping forcibly dragged her out.

inside the house.

Jin Ling Jiuduan was sitting in front of the table, there was wind from the window, and the scrolls on the table rattled. He didn't move until the book was about to fall to the ground, and he raised his hand to close the book, pressing it under his wrist.

Mu Jiao's father is his master, the elder he respects the most in this world. If there is no master, there will be no Jinling Jiu now, nor will there be the first floor in the world.

The tip of his nose was sour, Jin Lingjiu closed his eyes, he was going to do something rebellious, he was going to stir up the world, he used what his master taught him to do things that he didn't know right from wrong, he was ready to be questioned, but he never I think that instead of blaming him, Master asked Mu Jiao to protect him.

Mu Jiao learned martial arts from masters with profound martial arts skills. She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. She is talented and intelligent, not inferior to men. Zuo Ping's martial arts is considered top-notch in the first floor of the world. If she fights against Mu Jiao, she will only lose.

Master made such a decision, which is the greatest support for him.

outside the house.

Mu Jiao only felt that Jinling Jiu was like a smelly and hard stone, oil and salt could not get in, no matter what she said or did, it was like punching the cotton with a punch, extremely powerless.

"Go back to the room and get the medicine. I'll open the room myself." Zuo Ping still had injuries on his legs, and she couldn't bear to torment him any longer.

Zuo Ping shook his head: "It's okay, it's just a small injury, I'll go back after you settle down."

Mu Jiao had no choice but to follow him obediently: "It's obviously not your fault, but senior brother punished you like this."

"It wasn't Master Jiu who punished me, it was my carelessness." Zuo Ping said.

It was blocked by fabric, and the fragments scratched the skin, but they didn't press in. It hurt when I knelt down, but now I don't feel it anymore. For a martial arts practitioner like Zuo Ping, it is completely commonplace.

Mu Jiao didn't believe it at all, and said angrily: "Don't speak for him, brother is cruel to himself and others. There have been rumors over the years. I haven't heard of it. He is still planning to do such a thing now. Alas, he has already It’s not the same as when I was a kid.”

Zuo Ping suddenly stopped in his tracks, and said forcefully, "Go by yourself, I'm going back to get the medicine."

"Hey, what do you mean?" Mu Jiao refused to let him go.

Zuo Ping took a deep breath, looked at her with red eyes, but said in a slightly fierce tone: "I said that I did it myself, and it has nothing to do with Master Jiu. In your impression, what kind of master Jiu is like?" People? You said that he had changed after hearing a few words from others, and you didn't even understand what happened. Do you know how long Master Jiu has been planning for the current situation in the world? It doesn't matter if you don't believe him, and it doesn't matter if you destroy his plan. But you really shouldn't try to discredit him."

After Zuo Ping finished speaking, he went back to the room, leaving Mu Jiao alone. She stood there in a daze for a long time before she came back to her senses, and silently went to the shopkeeper to open a room.

Pei Zhe came out of the Pinxiang Building and headed straight for the Huai River. He was restless and was thinking about what happened just now. The shopkeeper of Pinxiang Building said that he hadn't seen Zuo Ping today, and Jinling Jiu was not tasting incense either. upstairs for dinner.

If he hadn't gone to Pinxiang Building, what did Zuo Ping go to prepare?It was Jin Lingjiu who said it himself. He is not a person who does not know the importance of preparing bouillon in Pinxianglou. Why would he do such a thing?

In fact, thinking about it carefully, Jin Lingjiu is really not quite right today, since he appeared in the yamen, and the invitation, he didn't think it at the time, but now the more he thinks about it, the more problematic he is.

Lin Jingkong and the others had arrived long ago, waiting for Pei Zhe to leave.

"Mr. Pei, you're here. We've finished asking. There is no record of money going to the doctor. How is it going?" Lin Jingkong raised his hand and waved in front of his eyes, "Hey, Mr. Pei, you're back to your senses." .”

Pei Zhe took a step back: "What are you doing?"

Lin Jingkong was overjoyed, and spread his hands: "Why do you still ask me, did you hear what I just said, we didn't ask here, Qianzheng never went to see a doctor, what about your side?"

Pei Zhe: "I don't have any here, so Qianzheng has been lying, arrest people."

Lin Jingkong nodded, turned his head and gave instructions to the officers and soldiers, asking them to notify the officers and soldiers who were following Qian Zheng.

Pei Zhe warned: "Hurry up, arrest the person as soon as possible and return him to the yamen, lock him up first, and wait for me to interrogate in person."

After finishing everything, on the way back to the yamen, Lin Jingkong thought about Jin Lingjiu again: "It's almost time for dinner, Mr. Pei, are you hungry, I invite you to eat, can you go to Pinxianglou?"

Pei Zhe glanced at him when he heard the words: "No."

What happened to Qian Zheng made Lin Jingkong see hope, and guessed that Sun Liu's case would be closed in a short time. Before Jin Lingjiu said that he had found clues about the magistrate's case, Pei Zhe and Jinlingjiu had such a close relationship. With the presence of these two great gods, it is just around the corner to solve the case.

Thinking of this, Lin Jingkong's tolerance towards Pei Zhe increased a lot, and he said flatteringly: "You can choose whatever you want, we can go to whichever restaurant you want, and bring that son of a bitch...cough cough, It’s fine to bring Yun Wuyang, I treat you.”

After he mentioned it, Pei Zhe remembered that Yun Wuyang and Zhong Limei were still waiting for him in the Commander's Mansion: "Don't choose, go back to the Commander's Mansion."

Since Shangyuan Ye, apart from paying back the money, this is the first time Zhonglimei has taken the initiative to find him. When he was in the magistrate's mansion, he felt that there was something wrong with Zhonglimei, and he never had time to investigate. Now Zhonglimei came to him. Well, he also has something to ask.

Unable to resist him, Lin Jingkong and Pei Zhe went back to the Commander's Mansion. Before leaving, he told the following officers and soldiers to go back to the yamen and say that they would charge him for something good for lunch today.

Lin Jingkong has never treated these brothers badly, otherwise there are so many people in the commanding army, they would not be convinced just because he is related to the empress, only he will follow suit.

Pei Zhe saw it, and sighed secretly, if Lin Jingkong could do this to the people of Huaizhou City, no, half of it, the people would not mention him and would be terrified.

But in the final analysis, the situation in Huaizhou City cannot be changed by Lin Jingkong alone. Pei Zhe thought in his heart, and when the case of the magistrate is over, he will report the situation to the capital, and when the time comes, Huaizhou Let me mention the situation in the city to see if he can recommend an official who knows his heart to take office here.

The people in Huaizhou City can no longer stand the toss.

When the two returned to the Commander's Mansion and took a look, Zhongli Mo was still there as expected, but his expression was not very good.

Lin Jingkong ordered the kitchen to be well prepared, and took the three of them to the study.

Zhongli Mo wanted to find Pei Zhe for something, and Pei Zhe also wanted to ask him something, after thinking about it, he said: "Mr. Zhongli, what can I do for you?"

Before, Zhong Limei would refute his title, but now he doesn't care about it anymore. I don't know if he is too lazy to care about it or he has accepted it.

Zhong Limei took out a letter from his sleeve and put it on the table: "After the prefect was killed, I thought about it a lot. This is specially organized by me. All the people who have interests in the prefect are on it. I hope I can help you. I was busy last time."

Pei Zhe picked it up, glanced at it hastily, and raised his eyebrows: "It's quite complete."

Lin Jingkong was very curious: "Show me."

Zhong Li's face froze, and he looked at Pei Zhe with a hint of pleading in his eyes, the arrangement was indeed very complete, Lin Jingkong's name was impressive, and he could see it at a glance.

Pei Zhe pulled his hand back: "There's nothing to see."

Lin Jingkong: "..." It's nothing to watch, you still look so enthusiastically.

Yun Wuyang stood behind Pei Zhe, caught a glimpse of the word "Lin Jingkong", almost laughed out loud, and then cast a sympathetic look at Lin Jingkong.

Lin Jingkong: "?"

Pei Zhe looked down, his gaze stopped at the last name, and his face sank: "Are all the people above here interested in the magistrate?"

I used lined paper on the market, and there was no space left on the paper. The last name was written outside the line, which was particularly conspicuous and pierced through the back of the paper. Pei Zhe felt that these words were more beautifully written than the other names. It was "Jinling" Nine" three words.

Zhong Li Mo nodded.

Pei Zhe's expression was unclear, and he suddenly threw the paper on the table: "What is the relationship between Jin Lingjiu and the magistrate?"

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, the paper happened to fall in front of Lin Jingkong, he picked up the paper and looked at it, his face darkened instantly: "What is the relationship between me and the magistrate?!"

At this moment, how could he not understand why Yun Wuyang looked at him with that kind of eyes.

Yun Wuyang couldn't help interjecting: "The old friend has a good relationship."

Lin Jingkong: "..."

Regardless of the two of them, Pei Zhe kept staring at Zhong Limei, and asked again: "Mr. Zhongli is talking about, what is the stake between Jin Lingjiu and the magistrate?"

Lin Jingkong realized later, looked at Pei Zhe, and always felt that he was not in a good mood, just like last night.

Zhongli looked at his nose and heart with blind eyes: "Before the Shangyuan Festival, the magistrate had a letter with Jinling Jiu. The grassroots don't know what it was about. They only knew that the magistrate invited Jinling Jiu to Huaizhou City as a guest. During the Yuan Festival, Jinling Nine is here."

Pei Zhe remembered that he had questioned Jin Lingjiu before, and the other party said that he had something to do, and the invitation from the magistrate was just a favor.

The atmosphere was weird, especially Pei Zhe, who didn't know what he was thinking. Lin Jingkong slapped the paper on the table and cleared his throat: "I, who has nothing to do with the magistrate, have been recorded. I'm afraid the ninth son It’s also chasing after wind and shadow.”

Zhong Li didn't make a sound.

Pei Zhe rubbed the center of his brows, and changed the topic: "Mr. Zhongli knows about the magistrate, but do you know about his family's affairs?"

Zhong Limei: "Concubine's room?"

The magistrate has eight concubines, all of whom are as beautiful as flowers, and the magistrate's methods of marrying most of them are dishonorable.

Pei Zhe: "Forget it, do you know who has the worst relationship with him in the magistrate's mansion?"

Zhong Li frowned: "No one in the house dares to offend him, so it doesn't matter if we talk about it or not."

This is the truth, if you live under the fence, your life is in the hands of the magistrate, who would dare not follow him?

Lin Jingkong smacked his lips: "Master Zhifu's hateful character must have offended many people, so you just talk about who was hurt the most by him, and who seems to want to kill him."

Zhong Limo thought for a while, and replied: "Madam Zhifu, the relationship between their husband and wife is not very good."

Yun Wuyang clicked his tongue: "It's not a good feeling, I don't want to see his body after death."

Pei Zhe suddenly asked: "Who in the house has the best relationship with the magistrate? Is there anyone who the magistrate always mentions and misses?"

Zhong Limei: "There is also one, my concubine Tian Qi."

The meal was ready in the kitchen, Lin Jingkong stayed with Zhong Limei, but Zhong Limei couldn't refuse, so he had to sit down with them.

The dishes were rich, and a large table was set up. Except for the "light meal" that Jin Lingjiu had at the banquet last night, this was the best meal Pei Zhe had had since he moved into the Commander's Mansion.

Yun Wuyang was speechless to himself, Lin Jingkong was not there, and Lin Jingkong was here, the difference in color of this dish was not at 01:30, he didn't know that it was Lin Jingkong who specially ordered the kitchen to make it to please Pei Zhe, he just thought it was Lin Jing Empty extravagance and waste.

"Sure enough, you are extravagant and dissipated, you deserve to die!"

Pei Zhe glanced at him: "What are you muttering about?"

Yun Wuyang shook his head, and snorted: "It's nothing, I said this dish is delicious, the cook is really good, why are you here?"

Lin Jingkong, who had listened all the time, said: "..." Give in to your uncle!You son of a bitch, you don't even know what to eat when you eat my rice, it's so annoying!As soon as the case is solved, I will kick you out!

After eating almost, Lin Jingkong seemed to have no intention of saying: "Lord Pei and Young Master Jiu have a good relationship, when will we make an appointment, Young Master Jiu said that he has clues about the case of Lord Zhifu, just ask."

Yun Wuyang remembered that he believed Lin Jingkong's words in the morning and was threatened by Pei Zhe, curled his lips, and choked, "Why don't you ask yourself?"

Lin Jing was so angry that his teeth were itching, and he wanted to grab Yun Wuyou by the neck and throw him into the pond in the yard: "You eat your food, children can grow taller by eating more, don't meddle in adults' affairs."

Yun Wuyang was slandered again because of his height, filled with righteous indignation, and wanted to throw his chopsticks on Lin Jingkong's unbeaten face, and refused to admit defeat: "I don't know how tall you are either!"

"Heh." Lin Jingkong was overjoyed, folded his arms and looked at Yun Wuyang, then smiled gloatingly, "Okay, okay, I'm not tall, you can feel your conscience and tell me if you can grow to my height. "

Yun Wuyang: "..."

Lin Jingkong is nearly 1.9 meters tall. It is really difficult for Yun Wuyang to grow to his height, and it will be difficult in a few years.

Yun Wuyang was speechless, Lin Jingkong choked on the son of a bitch for the first time, he was in a good mood, and couldn't help but start yelling: "No problem, don't worry, I'll give you a few more years, come on, wait until you When it's not too long, let's talk about height again, Brother Lin is waiting for you."

Yun Wuyang was almost dizzy with anger, and blurted out: "What kind of brother are you, you old man, you are more or less called an uncle!"

Lin Jingkong shrugged indifferently: "Uncle Lin is also fine, I don't mind."

Yun Wuyang: "..." Gan!I mind!

Pei Zhe got a headache from the two of them, so he put down his chopsticks, looked at Lin Jingkong, and curled his lips: "You want me to ask Jin Lingjiu? Do you think he will tell me?"

There is a show!Lin Jingkong's eyes lit up: "Does it need to be said, who in Huaizhou City doesn't know that Mr. Pei and Jin Lingjiu have a good relationship, and won't he invite you to drink together today? If you want to ask, he will definitely tell you , and besides, you're not all together—"

Pei Zhe smiled instantly, and interrupted him expressionlessly: "Fool, we didn't sleep together."

The author has something to say:

Mu Jiao will grow and change slowly, believe me, Jiao Jiao is super good!

After laying the groundwork, Pei Lang and Xiao Jiu'er are about to face each other head-on, focus on head-on.

【No Responsibility Small Theater】
