Bang -

When the gate of Pei's mansion was ascended, a fist-sized stone smashed a hole.

"Which of the eight lambs is impatient?"

From inside the gate came the angry shouts of the guards guarding the door.

Immediately afterwards, there was another muffled sound, this time smashing the plaque hanging on the door frame, and a cloud of black mud was pasted on the two gold-lacquered characters of "Pei Fu".

After a while, the door of Pei's mansion opened, and a sleepy-eyed middle-aged man dressed in a doorman costume came out from inside, holding a lantern in his hand, poking out his head and looking out.

Seven or eight meters away from the door, there stood a young man dressed in white, with his face tightly covered, and his figure and clothing knew that he was still a minor at a glance, holding a small cloth bag in his hand, and was making a throwing motion.

"Do you know what this place is! Dare to come here and make trouble! Looking for ...... Death Yes! ”

Before the man guarding the door could finish speaking, the masked young man had already thrown out the small cloth bag in his hand, which was not biased or oblique, and hit the man who guarded the door in the face.

A foul smell rushed into the nostrils of the doorkeeper, and his mouth was full of mush, and he reached out to wipe away the mud that was sticking to his eyes, and then took the light of the lantern in his hand, and looked at it, and almost fainted.

In his hand was obviously a black and smelly ball of horse manure, with residual temperature, apparently freshly baked.

When he looked at the young man again, he was dancing in the direction of the gate with his hands and feet, clapping his hands and pouting his buttocks, as if he was quite proud of his accuracy just now, and the doorman was furious, threw the lantern in his hand, and chased after him, scolding while chasing: "Little beast, let me catch you and eat it, don't run!" ”

The boy laughed, turned and ran, and turned into the alley.

When the man guarding the door chased him into the alley, he saw only a white horse with a rival horse, galloping away, and soon he couldn't even see the horse's buttocks.

The man could only pause his chest and swear loudly in the direction where the young man had gone, and cursed for a while before turning back to the door.

"Huh? What about lanterns? ”

The portable lantern he had thrown at the door was gone.

He looked around, saw nothing unusual, and entered the door in a huff, closing it again.

……

In the garden of Pei Mansion.

A thin man curled up, carrying the lantern of the Pei Mansion guard, bowed his head, walked on the cobblestone sheep intestine path in the Pei Mansion Garden.

"What people!" A small group of soldiers patrolling the garden saw him from afar and stopped and asked.

"Hello Brother Patrol, the little one is the concierge who asked me to hand over two visit posts to Master Pei, saying that I have something urgent to meet, I don't know if I can help the little one to hand it over, there is Brother Lao, you."

The patrol captain who was passing by saw that this person was carrying the lantern of Pei Mansion, so he didn't doubt it, took the letter from his hand and looked at it, then looked at the porter, and wondered: "Why haven't I seen you before?" ”

"The little one is new, and the patrol brother has a lot of expensive things, and it's normal not to know the little one."

The patrol captain didn't suspect anymore, and pointed to a few big mansions behind him: "Master Pei is in the study, you keep walking forward, turn left at the end of the alley, and then walk more than ten meters forward, through a rockery, the first house by the lake is Lord Pei's study, don't walk around." ”

"The little one understands, there is Brother Lao." The thin man bent down and stood sideways to the side, escorting the patrol away.

Watching them walk away, he blew out the lantern and melted into the night.

……

In a large mansion by the Peifu Lake.

A middle-aged man in a loose robe, a burly and majestic figure, a square face, small eyes, and a thick beard was sitting in front of the desk in the study, holding a scroll in his hand, and studying intently.

A young and beautiful woman stood quietly beside the bookcase.

The light became a little dim, and the woman behind her came up, took the scissors, trimmed the wick, and added some tea to the teacup on the table after repairing the lamp.

Just as he was about to turn back, the middle-aged man put down the book in his hand, coldly held her in his arms, his hands roamed back and forth on her, and the woman's fragrant voice gasped for breath throughout the room.

"Report to your Excellency!" At this time, the voice of a guard sounded at the door.

"Come in."

A samurai in armor walked in from outside the door and knelt down on one knee, "My lord, the lowly official has already sent people to investigate, and the person who robbed the official silver last time was probably committed by someone from the blacksmith shop in Yuchi." ”

When the man heard this, he let go of the woman in his arms and stood up, and the woman hurriedly took a cloak and put it on him, and the middle-aged man paced to the side of the warrior, and suddenly raised his foot and kicked him to the ground.

"What do you call very likely! I want a clear answer! ”

The warrior got up from the ground in embarrassment and knelt in front of the middle-aged man, "Guilty of despicable duties, it's just that they didn't leave us alive, and even the people and boats were sunk to the bottom of the river, and there was no clue at all, and that Wei Chi Jingde was Liu Wuzhou's person, and he didn't dare to act rashly, so this is ......."

"Get up, except for the mining gang, no one in the whole of Luoyang dares to blatantly rob the official silver escorted by my salt gang! Without evidence, we can't do anything with them, let people post a reward notice, and anyone who provides an exact clue will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver! I don't believe no one is tempted! ”

"Let's do it!" Relieved, the samurai hurriedly stood up and walked towards the door.

"Wait! Has my unsuccessful brother been causing me any trouble lately? ”

"This ......" the samurai turned, his face hesitant.

"Just say, he doesn't dare to do anything to you."

"Yes! Just now I heard from the patrol guard that just now two people sneakily carried in a bag from outside the house, as if it was a woman, and was carried to the second master's room. ”

The middle-aged man frowned: "Whose girl did he fall in love with again?" ”

"I don't know, but I heard that the second master often took the stupid leopard to the river to collect the rent of a stall selling tofu recently, and I heard that the woman who sold tofu was a widow who was as beautiful as a fairy, and the second master took a fancy to her nine times out of ten."

"Widow? This bastard, I haven't settled accounts with him for the trouble I caused me last time, and now he is getting more and more promising, even the widow he doesn't let go! ”

The warrior hurriedly said: "My lord, please rest assured, as far as I know, the widow has no background, a few years ago she married a martial arts husband, but unfortunately died on the battlefield in Liaodong, there is only one father-in-law who is dying in the family, relying on her to sell some soy milk and tofu to make a living, except for many sons and brothers who covet her beauty, even if she disappears out of thin air, no one will care." ”

The middle-aged man's anger decreased slightly when he heard this, but he still had a stinky face: "It's better not to make trouble for me again, you go and tell him, go with me tomorrow to see the emperor, the emperor is going to prepare for the eastern tour in the next few days, play and play, if you miss the right thing, see if I don't pick his skin!" ”

"Yes!"

"Stand down."
