Zhui Xu Chapter 1185

The chaotic figures shortened the distance in an instant, until they collided and collided. Some people went forward, some moved forward, some avoided, and some waved their knives in hysterical shouts. The steel collided in the air and produced violent flames. The sound penetrated into people, making people's teeth and tiger's mouth faintly feel numb.

A evading policeman had his arm cut off, and the severed arm flew high into the sky with the rush of blood. The slanted knife cut across his stomach, and he staggered back. Slashing like the wind, passing through his body with a more violent gesture. And another catcher who rushed up with a knife, the plain knife in his hand was embedded with the long knife swung by the opponent with all his strength, the two opened their mouths and shouted, pulling frantically with all their strength, colliding and grabbing back in the alley.

At the same moment, Ni Po's fists and Song Xiaoming's saber slammed together with all their strength. He faced the soldiers with his fists, with heavy iron bars tied to his arms, and he swung his hands around his upper body to protect his upper body. Similar to boxing, relying on the momentum of short and long, it directly breaks the middle of the long sword. This is already a side-to-side rushing attack in the arena. Song Xiaoming danced with a long knife, screaming to drag the knife to the opponent's foot, while stepping back under his feet, trying to increase the distance. The assassin who jumped down like a flying eagle slashed several knives on the retreating policeman in a blink of an eye, and slashed back towards Song Xiaoming's back.

Song Xiaoming drew out an iron ruler to block it with the other hand, and the iron fist in front of him thundered like thunder. He shook his head while stepping back, and the fiery fist hit his forehead.

Tread Tread—

The distance between him and the blue wall of the alleyway is three steps back. During these three steps, he let out a loud roar, constantly swinging the long knife and iron ruler in his hand, but in front of and beside him, the more violent fist wind and knife light smashed And pass.

As the sun set, birds flew in fright between the alleyway and the surrounding courtyards. After a short time, people's roars gradually stopped, and the sound of punching fists gradually changed from violent to slow.

The smell of blood permeates from the alleyway.

Not long after, on the road outside the alley, a tall figure with blood-stained fists appeared. He printed the thick blood on the wall on the street, and then shouted loudly:

——The one who killed the chief arrester of Song Xiaoming was 'Iron Fist' Ni Po.

It was already evening, and on the street in the distance, there was a sound of gongs first, probably because the police officers arrested the prisoner again. But after a while, there were more and more blares, and the streets in the east of the city became a little uneasy.

Ning Ji climbed up to the roof and watched for a while, seeing the catcher on horseback rushing anxiously through the already crowded city streets, and the slight chaos even vaguely extended towards the direction of the imperial city...

Pedestrians on the street and residents in the neighborhood also gradually began to talk about it. Of course, from yesterday evening to now, there has been a lot of commotion in the city, and it is likely that something relatively difficult happened this time.

Qu Longjun had already dressed up in men's clothes, packed the carriage for a while, and then stood at the gate of the courtyard watching for a while, listening to some meaningless rumors from neighbors.

After a while, Ning Ji saw Chen Hua from Guitai League on the roof. He jumped from his yard to the roof next door, put his hands together and shouted a few words. The resident next door jumped back with a "hehehe" in their displeased eyes.

Chen Hua came towards the courtyard like a dog's leg, and greeted Qu Longjun at the gate of the courtyard with a smile: "Hey hey, Long Shaoxia and Sun Shaoxia, do you live here?"

Qu Longjun started talking with him, and Ning Ji on the roof just shouted: "Let him tell what happened." He didn't hurry down, but stood on the roof and continued to look at the people in the city. Lively, the crowded road conditions in Fuzhou in the evening will magnify the unusual commotion. Even if you can't overlook the whole situation with a telescope from a high place, as a trained person, you can deduce a lot of things from the traces of the commotion.

something big happened...

After a while, Qu Longjun climbed up the stairs to the roof and told him about the death of chief arrester Song Xiaoming not long ago.

Ning Ji frowned.

At the same time, in the imperial city, one could see that the setting sun was gradually turning into a blood-like color, spreading towards everything.

In the imperial study room, everyone was still discussing matters, and a large map of Fuzhou City and its surrounding areas was hung up high. Many things that happened from last night to now have been summarized on it.

For the long-anticipated change of this day, the Ministry of Justice, the Zuo family, and everyone in the Huangcheng Division under Tie Tianying's direct management have already made a lot of preparations, and there are many clues that have been followed. The arrests and raids began, and at the same time, they tried to find clues about the core of Pu Xingui, Chen Shuangran, and Cao Jinlong in this round of raids.

The current round of the game is still essentially a battle between the royal family and some wealthy families and gentry, but the chess eyes presented are the symbolic existence of Pu Xingui, Chen Shuangran, and Cao Jinlong. If you catch these three people, the flames that start can be extinguished, and the people with evil intentions will die down, but if you can't catch these three people, the liquidation of some big clans will be like stopping the boiling water.

In other words, the essence of all strategies is to fight the big clan, but the appearance of tactics is attributed to the three big rebels in front of them.

One day and one night, the result cannot be said to be non-existent, but it has not touched the core of this operation, so the next step is to continue the matter, hoping that among the massive clues, there will be a few that will enable them to finally delineate this The trail of the three rebels.

The matter has been discussed for most of the time, but at this moment, due to the sudden information from outside the palace, everyone in the study fell silent for a moment. The emperor's face was terribly gloomy, and Tie Tianying was also in a daze, but after a while, he Let his subordinates go out of the palace to deal with the disciple's affairs temporarily, while he himself stayed in the imperial study.

In the room, Jun Wu did not speak, Zuo Wenhuai who was called into the palace did not speak, and Tie Tianying also appeared silent. After a while, an official from the Youth Faction in the room stood up first.

"Your Majesty, dare to remonstrate again—please make up your mind to order the Zhenhai and Beiwei Second Armies to take action against the unruly big families in Fujian! As I said last time, many of the big families in Fujian have already made it clear that they don't want to be ministers." If it is revealed, these people should never have the intention of treating guests to dinner. The chaos in Fuzhou this time, the gangsters are fierce, and it is nothing more than these big clans who use the property and connections in the city as villains to cover up. Today in Fujian, the imperial court is still I have the absolute upper hand, this matter is imminent, according to Yichen, mobilize the army, sift through the whole of Fujian, and interrogate these big clans carefully, and the evidence will be found..."

"Enough—" Jun Wu slapped the table with a black face.

The blood-red sunset spread in the hall, and the young official knelt down. He was actually a highly valued young official who accepted the thinking of "respecting the king and rejecting barbarians". Deadly remonstrance! I guarantee my wealth and life, and I have absolutely no selfish intentions!"

Jun Wu was silent for a moment: "...Then what if there is no evidence?"

The official was also silent for a while, gnashing his teeth: "...these big families in Fujian do not accept Wang Hua, and this contradiction is difficult to resolve. This time...even if they are charged with crimes, they will not be wronged too much. Only by cleaning up these people, the people of Fujian , will be managed by His Majesty... I know that this matter is absolutely impossible in a peaceful world, but now that the world is in danger, and His Majesty wants to save the world, I can no longer hesitate at this time. Please, Your Majesty, make up your mind! If you are worried about the future If there is a problem, I am willing to deal with these villains for Your Majesty. If you do something wrong, Your Majesty can arrest and punish you at any time—"

His words were determined, even with the generosity of death. Zuo Wenhuai on the side frowned slightly, but did not speak, Jun Wu stared at him for a while, and sighed.

"...Master Tie, the one who died... is my chief arrester and also your disciple... tell me, what do you think?"

Tie Tianying took a step forward, and seemed to sigh slightly.

"The old minister thought...it was absolutely impossible." He said calmly.

Jun Wu nodded.

"Why?"

The light of the setting sun is like a huge magic weapon, covering people and cities, and extending to the endless horizon.

Ning Ji and Qu Longjun packed up the carriage and drove towards Yinqiaofang.

Sighing: "...Speaking of which, this is really the most useless emperor I have ever seen, hehe, I thought he was doing well..."

Chief arrester Song Xiaoming was killed, and the murderer even appeared on the street in a grandiose manner, then escaped into the nearby streets and alleys, and disappeared under the siege of the arresters. Apart from the opponent's high martial arts skills, this incident actually showed the secret behind the scenes. Opponents take control of the city.

For more than a month after entering the city, Ning Ji at least believed that although the imperial faction was not strong enough in the mountains, they still maintained absolute control in the big cities. Only to discover that the many villains behind the scenes also have great control over the power of the city.

After staying in Fujian for three years, I didn't even have the capital in my hands. It's just too pitiful to have to pull and pull like this after tearing up my face.

Qu Longjun shook his head instead: "It can't be said that way. The rich families in Fujian used to have no qualifications to speak with the emperor when the Wu Dynasty was prosperous, but if you really count, there are thousands of them. With the joint efforts of tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of people, they want to bite the court, and the chief arrester of the Ministry of Punishment may sound like a very important person, but in fact, he is just a mere person..."

"At this level, it's time to seal the city and check it again." Ning Ji said, "Let the patrolling army move, block each city, and then screen them one by one, and you can screen out a lot of people... Do you think the court Would you do that?"

He put forward an idea, Qu Longjun was silent for a while, and after a while, he leaned over and said in a low voice: "...I don't think it will be done this way."

"…Why?"

"Your Majesty of Fuzhou has summoned many people to come here to accept the concubine, and the bad guys behind the scenes have also summoned many people to make trouble. Yesterday, both sides drew swords and saw red. If I were Chen Shuangran and Pu Xingui, once he closed the city, I would Then he fled far away... If the mastermind of the closure of the city cannot be caught, the more people are dealt with, the worse the impact on the world will be. Everyone will feel that His Majesty has ripped off his face and started killing people in Fujian. Secondly, you will feel that the imperial court can't even grasp the situation in Fuzhou, and when Chen Shuangran and others climb up to shout, all the clans in Fujian will go up to the mountain to respond..."

"Hey." Ning Ji smiled, "That's why I said, this emperor is really useless, with his hands tied..."

Because the elders in the family would occasionally talk about this "disciple" in the southeast, Ning Ji had always had a good impression of the little emperor here. During this trip to Fuzhou, he had seen the orderly life in the city before, and he actually had a good impression of it. In the current round of duels, puppies like Chen Shuangran and Pu Xingui can make the head of the criminal department be assassinated on the way, but Ning Ji really feels aggrieved for the other party.

Of course, this matter has little to do with him now. He is still planning the assassination of Tie Tianying when he leaves the palace, and how to make Pu Xingui see that he is also a "bad guy". , It's useless to be anxious, I thought about it for a while, and felt that I was just watching other people's excitement, seeing walking.

I was still a little curious in my heart. When my father talked about the little emperor, he always said that he was a simple and obedient child. Highly rated. This time when the chaos broke out, Zuo Wenhuai and others did not show the exhaustive strategy of the Southwest, and they don't know how their father would use the methods of Chen Shuangran and Pu Xingui if they were here and saw the little emperor being bullied like this. The puppy in the house was pulled out and strangled to death.

Sometimes I think about it, if I have such ability, I should also help the other party - of course, I will even strangle the **** Tie Tianying to death.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Qu Longjun, the military strategist beside him. She has great potential. Although she can't do this kind of thing right now, if she travels with him in the rivers and lakes, she will join a few people from the Huaxia Army in the future. With a special warfare team, maybe somewhere they can show themselves like their father in front of others, and have a great time.

Thinking of this, I can't help but secretly say "hey".

On the other side, Qu Longjun frowned and thought for a while, and said: "The situation in Fuzhou is not peaceful now. After the noise has become louder, the big clans who are watching in private are probably standing in the last round. Think about it carefully, how can the court really The one who has the decisive upper hand is the nearly 200,000 troops under him. If you are in a hurry, maybe the army will be dispatched and these people will be beaten for a round..."

Ning Ji looked ahead, but this time he didn't think much about it: "Then in the game of fighting for the world, the little emperor is completely out."

"Huh?" Qu Longjun looked at him and blinked.

In the palace, Tie Tianying stood there and sighed.

"...The old official came out of the Ministry of Punishment. He has always been the closest to the arresters below, and he knows the most about the people under the various yamen. One thing that the old official has always been clear about is that many yamen officials, when they first entered the industry, had little understanding of the common people. There is a heart of compassion, but often after he has done the first thing of torture and framing... this person can't handle difficult cases, because when encountering difficult cases, most of them will To deal with it by framing and beating..."

Jun Wu's palm slapped helplessly on the table.

The young official kneeling below gritted his teeth: "Bandits are rampant, and the knot between the imperial court and the big clan, in Yichen's opinion, is almost inextricable...just this time, as a stopgap measure..."

"Okay." Jun Wu said from above, "I only have your team, and only a few available ministers like you. Faced with such a big thing this time, I said it can be expedient, and I will encounter the same big thing in the future. , everyone will still be expedient. Using the power of the imperial court to untie the knots with various big families in Fujian is a big deal, so is the Fair Party a big deal? Fighting the Jurchens is a big deal? Confronting the Southwest is a big deal Big? There are so many big things in this world, nothing more than soldiers coming to block them, water coming to cover them, and slowly dismantling them..."

There was not much generosity in what he said, nor was it cadenced, but the will in his words was sober. After he finished speaking, he paused for a while: "Besides, Yu Qing, I know what you mean by punching , I also know that many young officials who have been promoted in the court today have the same thoughts as you... and because of this, in order to imitate others, I will demote you to three levels this time, let's go down and start from scratch , I hope that you will learn from the pain, make more contributions, and come to the palace to discuss matters again in the future."

"...Do you have any complaints?"

The imperial study room was quiet for a while, and then the official kowtowed to the ground with a bang.

The setting sun gradually turned scarlet like blood, and the carriage approached Yinqiaofang.

Ning Ji waved his whip lightly.

"...The fight for the world is actually a fight for the hearts of the people. In Fuzhou, the hearts of the people are not all in the imperial court. It is because the clans in the mountains do have a reason to exist. After killing the clan once, will the people obey him? No, in the future, the army will become warlords, relying on coercion and robbery to **** taxes and military expenses from the people. Complete the bandit army that can't be fought...It's not that you can't kill people in such things as fighting for the world, but if you don't kill people for the sake of winning people's hearts, you will only kill yourself..."

He spoke casual words, and on the seat beside him, Qu Longjun was surprised at first, then his eyes gradually became clear, his face turned reddish, and his eyes became admiring. In fact, during the time when she was recuperating in Southwest in the past, when she looked at the cold-faced little military doctor, she often had such eyes. Cute, but he has such a smart side after all.

Ning Ji notices this look, complacent, after a while, he still smiles.

"Hey, the Huaxia Army often talks about these things..."

Not long after, the two arrived at Yinqiaofang and set up a stall.

Night gradually replaced the setting sun.

Several carriages naturally passed through the streets of Fuzhou. Although they could be seen from the front and back, they were separated from each other. At first glance, they did not look like people who knew each other.

In one of the carriages, the curtain was quietly lifted, and a pair of calm and surging eyes saw the Gold and Silver Bridge Archway in the distance.

"...Nearby hiding place, stop for a while, and then you go."

"This..." The driver hesitated for a moment.

"I'm going to deal with some things, the higher-ups know... safety has nothing to do with you."

At last the carriage turned aside.

In the carriage ahead, the disguised Chen Shuangran was chatting in a low voice with the middle-aged man in the car. The middle-aged man was paying attention to the surrounding conditions, and first saw something wrong in the middle section of the car.

"Go slowly." He ordered.

After a while, someone ran over, got into the carriage silently, and reported the movement of "Iron Fist" Ni Po to Chen Shuangran and others.

"An order?" The middle-aged man frowned.

"...There is one thing." Chen Shuangran thought for a while and said lazily.

"What's up?"

Chen Shuangran made a general statement, and the other party frowned after listening.

"He just killed the chief arrester of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and the yamen is still cleaning nearby. At this time, he is going to test his skills. Think clearly, the possibility of accidents is not small."

"The second half of Yinqiaofang is the fish market..." Chen Shuang smiled, "I have already made arrangements... What's more, even if he was arrested...what does it have to do with us..."

The middle-aged man nodded helplessly: "Change the car, we can't let Ni Po know that we are nearby."

"Yeah." Chen Shuangran nodded and smiled, "Actually... Jianghu heroes are like this, sometimes they do their own way, and sometimes... it's a lot of fun... Don't you think so..."

The middle-aged man shook his head: "Forget it, Ni Po's martial arts are good, his foundation is solid, and after some experience now, he will have great achievements in the future. It's not like there's no way out for being targeted by the yamen. It's just that if his desire for fame and fortune can be curbed...if he can listen to others' orders, our chances of getting things done safely will be even greater..."

"...You really appreciate him."

"Okay, it's still a long time to use him..."

They got out of the carriage, and then changed vehicles. In the night, Xinghe was blinking slightly.

Ni Po put on a thin cloak and walked through the dark alleyway.

The blood on his body is surging.

Killing the chief arrester, Song Xiaoming, made his whole body in a state of great excitement. Previously, it was only a moment of fierce fighting, which made his state at its peak, especially after successfully killing the enemy, he felt a huge sense of accomplishment. And the sense of satisfaction made him burn even more.

He is a martial artist who came from a small place. He has been tempered half his life. He originally planned to make a name for himself in the hero meeting in Jiangning City, but his fame has not yet been revealed. Not long after, Lin Zongwu, the number one person in the world, stepped into various arenas in Jiangning City, making him the first For once, I felt the gap between people, and also felt the enthusiasm and surge behind that strength.

During the time in Jiangning, he concentrated on martial arts and fought in a down-to-earth manner. However, in the second half of the ring, because of King Fairness's disruption, all the high-level figures in the city turned their attention to boring politics. It became a boring chore, especially at the end of the competition, when He Wen overturned the table, a group of people fought violently in the city, and even directly caused the **** in the group arena. His enthusiasm seemed to have been splashed with cold water, but he also knew the meaning of this life.

He suppressed his anger.

During the time when he arrived in Fuzhou City, he competed with many masters from Chen Shuangran's side, and even received advice from masters including Master Tunyun. His cultivation base and vision have improved by leaps and bounds. Everyone knows that his future is limitless. He himself understands this very well.

He is not stupid, nor is he simply a reckless man—the fight between the big clan and the court has just begun, the Criminal Ministry has not figured out the details of the people on his side, and Chen Shuangran and others still have spare power in the city. It is the best moment for him to emerge and retreat fully. At this time, not long after he killed Song Xiaoming, he proudly announced his existence on the street. If within an hour, he can do another deed and get out of his body, in the future, when he is mentioned in the green forest, he should be There is a kind of chicness like Guan Yunchang surpassing five passes and beheading six generals.

Chen Yan told him many things yesterday, one of which was incidental.

"...My lady found out that Mr. Pu Xinguipu, who was so hungry, recruited two teenagers in the city for his own use. I heard that the two of them were only sixteen or seventy-eight. Last year in Jiangning, they were also known as prostitutes. Maybe you I've also heard... If you have the opportunity and grasp it in the past few days, go try them...Of course, the big thing is the main thing..."

Ni Po vaguely remembered that he had indeed heard the names of the two puppies.

The other party seemed to have caused some trouble in Jiangning City.

But this kind of puppies that haven't grown up yet... Solicitation?

Chen Shuangran sneered at it~www.mtlnovel.com~ Ni Po also found it ridiculous. Of course, Pu Xingui was indeed ignorant and ridiculous in the eyes of Ni Po and other experts. Mind to teach the other party a lesson.

This is the best time.

It doesn't matter if you seriously injure two people or kill one person. Complete the fight as quickly as possible, and then, before the arresters arrive—or after—you will leave. There is an arrangement here in Yinqiaofang. He has already thought about the path. And with this day's vigor reaching the peak, he will be able to chew on this comprehension carefully after returning home, and reach a higher level.

At the moment of Xu Shi, Ni Po stepped into the street of Yinqiaofang.

In Fangshi, although there were fewer people than usual, the lights stretched and there were many spectators.

He was tall, with the blood of fighting, striding forward like a demon god, stretched out a hand, grabbed the cloak on his body, and waved it to the night sky on one side.

The heat wave of the night is like poetry, intoxicating.

In front of a grocery stall not far away, a puppy stared at him dumbfounded...
