That Person In That River and Lake Chapter 155

  Chapter 155 The old man is holding a knife again, the son of the Ma family is so melancholy (10,000 rewards plus more)

There is a tavern beside Zhuque Street, which is unremarkable in this bustling city of Chang'an. The decoration is simple and plain. , there is one more regular guest here, a son-in-law wearing a feather crown, a sword and a jade ring on his waist.

That young man always wears a green shirt and has an elegant demeanor, but every time he gets drunk, he talks to himself from night to dawn. It looks like the accessories of those scholars, but it is really a bit like a murderous sword. Occasionally, a little bit of the blade is exposed, but there are gaps everywhere.

There are rumors that the alcoholic son is the son of Ma Dongyang, the Minister of Rites in the Central Court, and Ma Zhibai, an academician of the Imperial Academy who is now on the rise. He is also the youngest Hanlin in the Xia Kingdom in the past fifty years. That ruthless county magistrate.

However, no one can be sure whether it is the legendary county magistrate who was bathed in blood and only for the people of the world. Today, at ten o'clock in the evening, he came on time again. The old rules, a plate of peanuts, a pot of tea, a pair of Chopsticks, a jug of wine, alone by the bed, drinking quietly, looking at the weeds and flowers by the bridge.

The waiter in the inn was cleaning the table while looking up at the young master. He was very puzzled. He couldn't figure it out. Such a wealthy person has endless money. Could there be any troubles that cannot be solved? He needs to borrow wine every day. worry? If he can have so much money and go home to get a wife, he will be satisfied.

Just at this time, another rickety old man appeared outside the door. He looked very gentle and staggered as he walked, as if he might fall down at any time. Xiao Er hurriedly put down the handkerchief in his hand, went up to him, and helped the old man , said: "Old man, what do you want?"

  The old man waved his hand, pointed to the window, and said, "Don't worry about me, I'm here to find someone."

   There was only one customer in the tavern, Xiao Er knew who to look for without even looking, so he helped the old man to the side of the young master, and said: "Then you are busy, call me anytime if you need anything."

  The old man nodded kindly, and sat on the stool, the young man came back to his senses, was slightly startled, stood up, and said politely: "My boy, Ma Zhibai, I have met Mr. Ning!"

  Ning Qing smiled slightly, and said: "Mr. Ma, you're welcome. I'm an old man who is almost buried in the ground, but I can't be your big gift from a celebrity in the court!"

Ma Zhibai's body trembled slightly, a look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on his face, he slumped down on the stool, and said softly: "Yes, yes, what a Hanlin, what a Ma Zhibai, what a smooth rise, what a court The popular one..."

  Ning Qing took a look at Ma Zhibai, and said softly: "How will Mr. Ma plan to face Mr. Gu? I heard that Mr. Gu is about to enter Beijing."

   Ma Zhibai's eyes shone brightly, and he said, "Brother Gu... is he coming, I... oh," Ma Zhibai sighed, and said, "But I don't have the face to see him."

  Ning Qing smiled slightly, took out a list full of wind from his arms, handed it to Ma Zhibai, and said, "Look, take a look, and see if there is anything you want to say?"

Ma Zhibai picked up the list in doubt, and wrote the three characters "Fengyun Bangbang", and the inscriptions were all over the building. This is the number one wind media in the world. Ma Zhibai has also heard about it. up.

   At the first glance, I saw a column: The bandit visited the Cihang Jianzhai in the South China Sea at night in Beifeng, was hunted down thousands of miles, and is now missing.

   "Uh...Mr. Ning, this?"

Ma Zhibai looked at Ning Qing suspiciously. He knew that Cihang Jianzhai was a rare women's sect in the world, and it was also one of the seven sects and eight sects in the world. The disciples of Hangjianzhai came out and said that the big thief Beifeng was a prostitute, and they made a lot of noise, but it has nothing to do with him.

  Old Ning raised his brows, pointed down, and said, "I told you to watch that. Why do young people nowadays like to watch things about Cihang Jianzhai and the Thief? Is this monastic woman so attractive?"

   Ma Zhibai's face froze, and when he looked at the list, his face turned pale, and his breathing became a little short of breath—Gu Qingci, the sword master, killed the old man Huqin and the child grandmother. There are rumors that the sword master came from Changling County, all the way to the capital...

Ma Zhibai lowered his head and read it carefully. It mainly tells about Gu Qingci's assassination and retaliation. Then according to some rumors and side information, he analyzed that Gu Qingci was the leader of the Changling County campaign, but he was suppressed by the court. , and now there is deep dissatisfaction among the people.

Ning Qing looked at Ma Zhibai, and said peacefully: "How does Mr. Ma feel? Hehe, a truly meritorious official, a good official with strong bones, loves the people like a son, but suffers such treatment. guilty!"

   Ma Zhibai drank a glass of wine, said: "I don't want to make any excuses, this is because I am sorry to Brother Gu, Old Ning, I beg you for one thing."

   "Tell me, let me think about it." Ning Qing said.

"Go to Jinling and stop Brother Gu. He can't come to the capital. Let's not say that my father has set up a net now. Even if Brother Gu's martial arts peerless came to the capital, he will definitely die. My father will definitely ask His Majesty to send someone to Langya County. Sheriff Zhang Zhihuan and Liufanmen Yueyan came to the capital, these two belonged to the princess, if brother Gu came, even if he sued the imperial court, he would have his injustice settled and he would surely die." Ma Zhibai said.

  Ningqing nodded, didn't stay long, got up slowly, and left the tavern with Ma Zhibai alone, one pot of wine, two pots of wine, and finally started talking to himself until he passed out.

  That night, an imperial edict from the imperial palace suddenly came out of Beijing, and the horse galloped eight hundred miles to the north.

That night, Princess Xingluan came out of the palace and sat in the carriage. Looking at the night, Tang Yun suddenly had a lot of thoughts. She raised her head and looked to the north. Inexplicably, a face appeared in her mind, some smiling, some angry, There was scolding, there was a **** suit, and the thousands of troops rode out of the city.

She held the wind and cloud list in her hand, read it over and over several times, and sighed softly: "Is your potential really that great? In just a few months... Moshang is like a jade, Mr. Shi Wushuang, Mr. Jian, you Why bother, why not wander around in the rivers and lakes from now on, scolding the muddy waters of the capital?"

  That night, there were no stars for a rare time, the night was dark, and I was very poor. I don't know when, another person left the city.

The old man walked out of the city gate, looked back at the majestic city slowly, sighed, a little frustrated, and said: "Princess, you are really wrong, Mr. Sword... Even if he wants to go out of the world, you can't do it again." Can you rest assured? Who will really let him enter the rivers and lakes safely?"

  A short knife with this faint luster, like a firefly in the night, after a long sigh, there is a vicissitudes of life voice:

   "Master Gu, I'm sorry for you too. Now, let's do one last thing for you, right... oh, I can't complain!"

   This chapter is updated for the book friend "Not Bad, Not Good, Not Handsome".

   Well, there is another update tonight, I did it myself, I finally got a chance to rest...
