Humpty Dumpty's voice fell, and Zhuang Hengyun shouted: "Bold! Lord Xiao is in charge of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and he is the emperor's confidant and an important minister of the court. You, a prisoner of death thieves, dare to talk about the minister, aren't you afraid of punishing the nine clans?!"

Humpty Dumpty glanced at Zhuang Hengyun and said with a smile: "When Emperor Taizu Gao was in power, he heard the story of the eunuchs of the Tang Dynasty who brought disaster to the world, and specially ordered an iron plate to be set up in the palace, which read, 'Eunuchs and politicians cut the nine clans with a thousand knives'. Not to mention that this Gonggong Xiao is just the admiral eunuch of the Imperial Horse Eunuch, even if he is the eunuch of the celebrant eunuch, he is just a servant of the emperor, how can he call himself a 'court'?!"

When Humpty Dumpty said this, his face changed, and he no longer had the slightest hint of play, and said in a deep voice: "You eunuchs have committed a big crime by leaving the palace without permission. Ran to Yibin Mansion and Sunjiapu, disregarded the laws of the country, and drove the magistrates to serve you as a eunuch temple. He also put on the streets to clean the streets and whip the people. All of them are crimes that overstep their authority and are bad omen for the world. Father-in-law Xiao, you must stop when it's time to stop. If you think about it every day, I am afraid that not only will the glory and wealth come to naught, but even the head of the person on the neck will be taken away one day. ”

Xiao Cheng clenched the scabbard of the sword in his left hand, pointed the long sword in his right hand at the ground diagonally, and said word by word: "Your Excellency claims to be a hero of the green forest, and these words are not something that ordinary people in the rivers and lakes can say. Since Your Excellency has such insight, why should you be afraid and incognito? You might as well say your high surname and let the official hear it. Although this official is a minister, he can also perform on behalf of His Excellency. The imperial court summoned Your Excellency as an official, which is naturally far better than wandering in the rivers and lakes. ”

Humpty Dumpty smiled and said, "The ironclad general crosses the pass at night, and the courtiers wait for the fifth cold; Gonggong Xiao, this temple will be given to you, and there is no need to say anything else. ”

After he finished speaking, he clapped his hands, and a playful look appeared on his face again, and then said: "My apprentice is not like me, he is the most upright. He said that the old man was not the person you were looking for, and it was definitely not a prevarication. Gonggong Xiao doesn't have to be entangled here, and it is serious to rush back to the capital as soon as possible. The cold sword qi in your body is extremely strange, and you must have a good health and recuperation after returning to Beijing, boiling it with hot medicine on the outside, and protecting your heart with internal strength. In this way, maybe after three years, the cold sword qi will dissipate, and his life will naturally be fine. If you are still brave and ruthless, this sword qi will disperse into the internal organs, and at that time, even if you are a Da Luo Jin Immortal, you will have no choice but to go to see Lord Yama. Father-in-law Xiao, people can't go against the sky, and they must be cautious in doing things. ”

Xiao Cheng has always been arrogant, but when he heard Humpty Dumpty speak, his face changed greatly, and he said in a trembling voice: "You, how do you know ......?"

When he said this, he suddenly stopped. After a pause, he continued, "Thank you, for your advice. However, the official was ordered to rush to Shuzhong to find someone, even if there was a cliff in front of him, if there was no order from the official, the official would not dare to return to the capital. Your Excellency's martial arts are far superior to your own officials, if you want to kill someone, just do it. It is absolutely impossible to get this official to leave. ”

Humpty Dumpty smiled and said, "Grandpa Xiao, I know you plan to rush back here and capture me." However, I used a small trick to trick them into chasing them north, but I quietly turned back. I'm afraid that your men have chased out thirty miles away at this time, and even if they want to rush back, it will be too late. As for your Shangguan, if he hadn't been stupid and forced you to mess around in Shu, not only would Gonggong Xiao not be able to return to the capital, but this eunuch with the palm print of the imperial horse eunuch would have to sink into the sand because of this matter. ”

Humpty Dumpty's voice fell, Xiao Cheng's face changed, and he was about to open his mouth to speak, but he couldn't help but say it. I saw that his face was cloudy, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

There was no one in the courtyard for a while, only when the cold wind swept by, the wild grass on the top of the wall and on the ruins of the wall made a palpitating whimpering sound.

At this moment, the brocade-clothed eunuch who had been standing outside the circle holding a wooden box said cautiously: "Lord Qiqi Xiao, what this old gentleman said is not unreasonable. We have been away from the capital for more than a month, and there have been many incidents in the palace. The villain sees that this old gentleman and Li Baihu are not clever words, and with Mr. Zhuang as a guarantor, they will not tell lies. It is the villain who dares to say that he asks the adults to return to the capital and do not have to delay in Shu. ”

After the eunuch in brocade finished speaking, he bowed even lower. Holding the wooden box in front of him with both hands, his face was tightly obscured.

Ever since Humpty Dumpty appeared, Li Qiufeng breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, listening to the eunuch in brocade to persuade Xiao Cheng, he secretly thought in his heart that this eunuch was by Xiao Cheng's side, and he had always been cowering. Listening to him say this, I still have some insight. It's just that Xiao Cheng is arrogant, and this eunuch speaks in public, but I'm afraid that he won't stop there.

After the eunuch in brocade finished speaking, he heard Xiao Cheng cough and said, "Okay." Since Mr. Zhuang is a guarantor for the two of them, the official does not want to waste his words here. You two can go, and the Imperial Horse Warden won't be in trouble with them again. ”

Li Qiufeng didn't expect Xiao Cheng to get off the donkey, but it was unexpected. Humpty Dumpty seemed to have guessed that Xiao Cheng would agree to stop it, laughed, and said, "Grandpa Xiao is really refreshing." In this case, let's go to the sky. There is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger in Shu, and there are many heroic knights. The reputation of your Dongchang in Shu is not very good, if it is delayed for a long time, and some masters outside the world know the news, I am afraid that if you want to get out of the way, it is not easy. Haha, haha. ”

After Humpty Dumpty finished speaking, he turned his head to Li Qiufeng and said, "What are you still doing standing stupidly, do you still think that the adults will invite you to dinner?"

After he finished speaking, he arched his hand towards Xiao Cheng, turned around and walked towards the temple gate.

Li Qiufeng followed behind Humpty Dumpty and walked out step by step.

At this moment, Humpty Dumpty waved his right hand back as if nothing had happened. only heard a sound of "snort", and then there was a strange sound of "click" next to Li Qiufeng, which startled Li Qiufeng.

He turned his head to look, but saw that the brocade-clothed eunuch holding the wooden box had unexpectedly arrived beside him. It's just that at this time, the wooden box he was holding with both hands had been broken into two from the middle. The brocade-clothed eunuch turned pale and looked at Humpty Dumpty's back with a look of horror.

After a while, I saw that the black gauze hat on the head of the brocade-clothed eunuch suddenly cracked through the middle, and fell to the ground with a "pop".

Humpty Dumpty's feet didn't stop, and he said as he walked: "Gonggong Xiao has spoken, you slave still wants to do a lot of things, do you really not know how to write the dead word?" hehe, hehe." ”

Only then did Li Qiufeng know that when he left with his master, the eunuch in brocade clothes wanted to assassinate himself with a poisonous hand. Fang Cai himself has always wanted to fight to the death with Xiao Cheng, but he didn't pay attention to this brocade-clothed eunuch. Unexpectedly, this person had been standing respectfully on the side, but he had peerless martial arts, and when he approached him, he didn't notice it at all. Among the martial arts masters he encountered, only a few people such as Liu Sheng Zongyan and Murong Danqing could compare with him. Fortunately, the master was good at martial arts, and found that the eunuch in brocade clothes had moved, and slashed in the air with a "hand knife", not only cutting off the wooden box held in the hands of the eunuch in brocade, but also cutting his gauze hat in half. Li Qiufeng knew that the master had already shown mercy to his subordinates, otherwise he only needed to add a little more strength, and the head of the brocade-clothed eunuch was also like his gauze hat, which had already turned into two pieces at this time.

Li Qiufeng glanced at the eunuch in brocade, and only then did he realize that although this person was white-faced and beardless, he only had a lot of crepe lines on his face, and he was estimated to be over forty years old.

By this time, Humpty Dumpty had already walked up the stone steps and walked straight to the temple gate. Although Li Qiufeng was surprised, he didn't dare to stay longer, so he quickly followed.

When he walked out of the City God Temple with Humpty Dumpty, he saw two people lying in front of the temple gate. The two men stared at Humpty Dumpty with wide eyes and a look of horror. Li Qiufeng recognized these two people as the two people who were guarding outside the temple with a long sword. His heart was clear, knowing that the master sneaked back to the outside of the Chenghuang Temple, and unknowingly knocked the eight fans who were guarding outside the temple to the ground.

Humpty Dumpty didn't even glance at the two fans lying on the ground, and walked straight to the way they came. Li Qiufeng walked quickly to Humpty Dumpty's side, and said as he walked: "Master, thanks to your old man's timely arrival, otherwise the apprentice will have to suffer a big loss if he does it with these fans." ”

Humpty Dumpty's face was no longer half of the banter at this time, and he said in a deep voice: "You said that these fanzi have great intentions, but I haven't taken it to heart. It's just that just looking at the behavior of these people that I believe that they have no scruples in order to change the dynasty. ”
