It is said that Jia Anniang avoided the important and took the easy, and coaxed the Liu brothers to let Liuzhuang go easily. Liu Xiaoqi then raised her hands and said: "This kid is just starting out and is not good at worldly things. I would like to ask Mrs. Jia for advice on how to deal with Princess Lin'an's matter."
Jia Anniang said: "The identity of Mr. Yin Qi is unknown even to the Marquis of Xiangyang. Didn't Chen Yatou say that she wants to accept Ming Yi as her disciple? I'd like to bother the Rongguo Mansion to be a middleman and give them a generous gift."
It's just that the child's family doesn't care about him, so it's not easy for the government to care about it."
But just now the waiter came in and replied, saying that Mrs. Pan was here. Qi had not been here since Falcon Bookstore opened, but today was the first time. Liu Si unconsciously turned his eyes to the sky, and Liu Mingyi jumped out to pick her up.
Mother.
Mrs. Qi timidly said a blessing to everyone and said: "I am related to the Marquis of Xiangyang. When I entered the palace, I used the name of their girl and I always helped their house once. Now Master Zhuang's incident has caused
I'll get up. Tomorrow I'll go to the mansion to plead guilty to Princess Lin'an. If you want to kill or chop me, it's fine. I think I have to do it for the sake of my relatives when I come to the mansion..." She bit her lip.
Jia Anniang said: "In my opinion, it is very appropriate for Master Yin Qi to handle such a matter. Why did Madam Pan come to the house to make mistakes? The Gongmen Marquis Mansion is full of snobbery. You will knock your head off.
It’s of no use.”
Mrs. Qi couldn't help but look at Liu Si. Liu Mingyi shouted first: "Mother! Uncle Qi can handle it! Uncle Qi will not offend that princess!" Mrs. Qi still looked at Liu Si.
Liu Sidao: "You don't have to worry about this matter." Mrs. Qi hesitated to speak, and then lowered her head for a long time.
After Jia Anniang and Mrs. Qi had left, Liu Er asked Liu Xiaoqi: "What kind of business do you do?"
Liu Xiaoqi: "Second brother, haven't you seen everything?"
"Where did those messages come from?"
"Come from where you came from and sell it to the place where you can get money." Liu Xiaoqi clapped her hands and turned around to go out.
Liu Er suddenly said: "It was originally the job of the imperial court to deal with thieves, but now it is done by people from the market."
Liu Xiaoqi stopped, turned around and said with a smile: "Second brother can actually think of this?"
Liu Er was silent for a moment and asked: "Only do this?"
Liu Xiaoqi thought for a while: "I am only doing this now. I will do something else in the future." Liu Er looked at each other and Liu Si was listening. Liu Xiaoqi said, "Most of the evildoers in Beijing today are dirty officials.
There are four types: corrupt officials, slaves, and bullies. I only have one person at the moment. To deal with the bullies, I can only rely on my skills to scare them. Seeing that I have a great reputation, I can’t really manage many things with a hammer here and there.
.It’s just that, since I have my name, many people can borrow my name or do these things under the banner of admiring me. I have contacts with Zhao Cheng and I have helped him a lot.”
He pointed to the study room outside, "He also likes these comments. The most important thing is that the people these people beat and kill are all ruffians - this is the job of a police officer, so Zhao Cheng will not take these cases seriously."
Liu Si thought about it: "Don't you value these cases? Don't you value the gangsters in the city being killed by righteous people?"
Liu Xiaoqi nodded: "According to the law, police officers cannot act randomly when handling cases. However, beating Tai. Starting from the last few years of the Zu Dynasty, the rich and powerful throughout the dynasty gradually became arrogant and extravagant, and the bullies in the market gradually got involved with the officials. From the fifth
The commanders of the City Army and Horse Division no longer dared to handle cases in accordance with the law when they arrived at the ordinary county. Not long after, "Guan Guan Talisman" was circulated everywhere. For example, there was a saying in Jinling that "Jia is not fake, and white jade is used as gold for the hall."
.' I'm talking about the Rongguo Mansion and the Princes of Guangdong and Guangxi. How can they all be smart and know what should be investigated and what should not be investigated? Or they have wasted their efforts to solve the case and watched the murderer as if nothing happened.
What's more, the policemen themselves have to suffer a loss and have to pay for the murderer. Those who can't swallow this breath will change their profession, and the remaining ones and the new ones will gradually have less to care about. In the market, most of the people who clean up the nightclubs rely on
Ranger."
Liu Si's eyes flashed and he said: "You can't expect all the rangers to remember the "Guardian Talisman"."
Liu Xiaoqi smiled and said: "Any knight who accidentally hurts the minions of a wealthy family will run around, and the market will gradually become more and more powerful. As it becomes more and more powerful, it is inevitable that there will be some good ones and some dishonest ones. If there are too many scoundrels in the dishonest market, it is inevitable that the "Guard Protector" will be hurt again.
"People on the Talisman". Taking Beijing as an example, most of the cases Zhao Cheng has investigated in recent years are these."
Liu Sidao: "According to your wishes, there are many young people in the market. Zhao Cheng will take care of those who hurt the powerful officials, but he will not take care of those who hurt ordinary people. Now that you are willing to take care of those who hurt the common people for him,
, he will be happy and free. In the future, someone will use your name to take care of these things, Zhao Cheng will still be happy and free."
Liu Xiaoqi nodded repeatedly and said, "Fourth brother is right, that's all."
Liu Erdao: "Isn't this a good thing? Why do I hear what you and Mrs. Jia said, as if there is something hidden?"
Liu Sidao: "Second brother, it's a good thing on the surface, but it's actually doing great harm to the country. Xiaoqi and the others are neither officials nor officials, so how do they have the right to control them? If the name is not correct, the words will not be obeyed, so do we need to have rules?"
Liu Xiaoqi clapped her hands and said: "The Empress Dowager and the Emperor are working together to sell nobles. Do we still need to follow the rules?"
Liu Sidao: "What are you doing this for?"
Liu Xiaoqi said: "What else can we do? We live in the market every day, and naturally we hope that life will be smooth and business will be prosperous. Who would want to have kidnappers kidnap their children every three days? Or just make a living at home, just now
Just save a few dollars and some local gangsters come to ask for it? Since the government doesn't care, someone has to take care of it, right?"
Liu Sidao: "In that case, it is very appropriate for you to control the nearby area. According to what you just said, even the north of the city wants to take charge of it."
Liu Xiaoqi spread his hands and said: "The west of the city is not far from the north. Don't kidnappers from the north of the city come to the west of the city to abduct children? I don't want to be a market tyrant. The rangers are willing to learn from me, and I will not take them as apprentices.
I know them. They run very fast with their hands and feet. Zhao Cheng can't catch them. What does they have to do with me, Yin Qi? I'm just a book seller." After saying this, his face was innocent, and the corners of his eyes were full of mischief.
Liu Si looked at him carefully for a long time and said: "Xiao Qi, tell me the truth. What do you and Mrs. Jia want?"
Liu Xiaoqi said sternly: "Do justice for heaven." Liu Er and Liu Si both looked unconvinced. Liu Xiaoqi said, "Really. We only work for the Wucheng Military and Horse Division and the Punishment Department for free and we don't get any salary. We use martial arts to do everything.
High-powered people act secretly, never gather people to recruit disciples, and will not leave any reputation like 'timely rain, song Gongming,' etc. It's free of charge!"
Liu Si sneered and said: "It's such a laborious thing. If you happen to encounter it, just give it a try. It's impossible to support many people to do this for free for a long time. You must have a plan."
Liu Xiaoqi said with a smile: "May I ask Fourth Brother what we want to do?"
Liu Si thought for a long time and said: "You just said that most of the evildoers in the capital are corrupt officials, corrupt officials, slaves, and bullies. Now you only deal with the 'bully' type. I'm afraid there are more people in Rongguo Mansion."
"Me too!" Liu Xiaoqi raised the corner of his mouth, "It won't be long before corrupt officials and powerful slaves will take action."
"By the way, help Jia Cong, Feng Ziying and others eliminate dissidents?"
"Definitely not!" Liu Xiaoqi waved his hands repeatedly, "Jia Cong and Feng Ziying are all solitary ministers and have nothing to do with anyone else under King Yan. If they want to eradicate their dissidents, how can they go through so much trouble? Just make a fool of yourself.
Unjust cases are extremely cheap. I just said it. As long as the court does these things, we will naturally not do them. It is because they don’t do them that we do them. Someone has to do it, right?"
The two brothers were silent for a long time, and Liu Er sighed softly: "I don't know what King Yan is doing."
"It's none of King Yan's business, it's just inertia." Liu Xiaoqi said, "The court only collects taxes. Officials protect each other, and slaves bully the people. Second brother and fourth brother." He cupped his fists and said, "Two brothers are willing to help.
Little brother, can we be a knight who upholds justice for heaven?"
Liu Er and Liu Si looked at each other, and Liu Si said: "I still don't understand what you want to do."
Liu Xiaoqi said: "Fourth brother, what time is this question? I've answered it before. Aren't you tired of hearing it? By the way, I killed one last night. There was a steward in the Liguo Mansion who wanted to pay 20% of the market price.
The price is too high to buy someone else's shop." Liu Er and Liu Si were slightly shocked. Liu Xiaoqi smiled and said, "I'm not specifically targeting the Liguo Mansion, he just happens to be from the Liguo Mansion."
Liu Sidao: "There are a lot of things in Prince Yan's house that I'm afraid of."
Liu Xiaoqi said: "The King of Yan is not short of money. His money comes from taxes and mining in Japan. There are always servants in his house who go out to rob the people. There is no need for these people to be soft. If
His son..." He winked, "Just send the message to his other son."
Liu Ercheng was reading Lu Lin's Commentary in the bookstore that day, and his chivalrous heart couldn't help but get a little more. He thought about it and said, "Well, brother can't just have tea and snacks for free."
Liu Xiaoqi clapped her hands: "Second brother is actually more outspoken than fourth brother!"
Liu Si saw that Liu Er had agreed, and that he had been very busy recently, and that the Qi family nearby were also very annoyed, so he also said, "Brother, it's not good for me to live in your house for free." After a while, he said again,
"We've all joined the gang, why don't you tell us?"
Liu Xiaoqi laughed: "My silly brother! We kill all evil people, but haven't you ever heard of gangsters eating gangsters?"
The two brothers suddenly realized! "They only thought that Rong Guofu was a member of the imperial court and was not short of money, but they didn't expect this!" They thought in their hearts.
After a while, Chen Ruijin came over, asked about the situation here, and said with a smile: "It's not a problem." Then he took Jia She's film, took Jia Cong's name, and sent an important steward of the Rongguo Mansion.
He went to Xiangyang Marquis Mansion to be a matchmaker. It was only said that Liuzhuang was the nephew of a friend of Jia Cong, and he was also the son of a general. His father followed Feng Tang to Japan. The child was young and not very sensible, so he didn't think it was important to take action. And he took this
The story was told to the Marquis of Xiangyang in detail. They heard that Princess Lin'an forced the embroiderer to put aside Princess Jian'an's things and embroider her own things first. They thought that the Rongguo Mansion was doing it to protect their family.
The third grandma was angry and didn't dare to argue. Instead, she was the first to admit that the matter was actually Princess Lin'an's fault. Liu Xiaoqi ordered another generous gift and sent it over. The Marquis of Xiangyang has gradually become poorer in recent years, and he was overjoyed when he saw the gift list.
Forbidden, how could you remember that Princess Lai'an had broken her ribs? That was done. Mrs. Qi was stunned for a long time after hearing this, especially since she couldn't believe it. The Liu brothers turned around and trained Liu Zhuang's hands on the proper strength, and Liu Zhuang also
Learn these back words carefully and don’t mention them for now.
When he went back that night, Mr. Liu asked Liu Er if he had found anything; Liu Er said no. "Xiao Qi only sells books every day, and the fourth child helps him collect the accounts, and Zhuang'er helps with wrapping books and so on."
It's a small job." He thought for a moment and said, "It's just that some unusual people often come to buy books."
"What unusual person?"
"The fan dressed as a man, the beggar with a banknote in his arms, the blind fortune teller." Liu Er said, "But they really went to buy books."
Mr. Liu frowned: "Most of these are spies." Then he asked, "Where is Rongguo Mansion?"
Liu Erdao: "Except for Jia Cong's visit once on the opening day, there has been no connection since then. Zhao Cheng has gone there often, and Feng Ziying has also gone there a few times. Their injuries have not healed yet."
Mr. Liu sighed: "That's all, it's inconvenient to press too hard. Now we can actually go to Rongguo Mansion. It's better to investigate secretly." Nai then said, "Jia Si sent someone over today to go south.
The bodyguard who picks up the young master of Xiangrui Yinlou will leave the day after tomorrow. I was thinking that you often go out and have done a lot of things outside the palace before, so you should go this time." Liu Er accepted the order. Liu Er
The old man added, "Let Mr. Ting watch the other side of Xiao Qi. He also saw it a few days ago. You can tell him some details later."
Liu Er took the order again. After a while, he said: "It's better to let the brothers take turns. One person's eyesight is poor, and everyone's eyesight is bright. Everyone goes and takes a look. It is impossible to see some different traces."
Mr. Liu thought for a while: "That makes sense. Just follow what you said."
The next day, Liu Xiaoqi waited for a long time and couldn't wait for Liu Er. She looked around and saw a familiar cousin leaning against the wall outside his bookstore with nothing to do, so he invited him in for tea and snacks:
"Why are you replaced today? My second brother didn't finish reading the commentary yesterday." Only then did Mr. Liu know that co-author Liu Er came to Falcon Bookstore every day to eat, drink and read. Liu Xiaoqi kindly invited him again.
, he entered the house like Liu Er, and when he went back in the evening, he returned with the unfinished book of commentary in his sleeve. Since Liu Er was going to get up tomorrow and follow the Taiping Escort to the south, he slipped back to the bookstore tonight and picked up the book.
He took the unfinished comments with him on the way to relieve his boredom. It didn't take long for the various comments from Falcon Bookstore to spread throughout the Liu family, and the children of the Liu family who were following Liu Xiaoqi also entered the house. Only Mr. Liu was the only one who could do this.
Just one person doesn’t know.
In September, many murder cases suddenly occurred in the capital. The murderers were all extremely skilled in martial arts and left no trace. The deceased included officials, petty officials, wealthy stewards, and flower-catching kidnappers. There was no connection between them.
I can't find it. In addition to killing people and robbing wealth, I also left various handwritings. Some were written on the wall, some were written on the desk, and some were written on flowery paper bought outside. These are the dead ones.
All of them had evil deeds. They robbed people, their wives and daughters, their fields, houses and shops. There was even a medicine shop owner who died because he sold counterfeit medicines. The murderer did not care about his identity at all. Lai Sheng, the chief manager of Ningguo Mansion, was there.
Fifty acres of land was taken away from a man in the suburbs of the city, and he was stabbed in the neck; an important eunuch under Prince Yan forcibly married a girl, with an arrow pierced through his heart. Zhao Cheng was so worried that he had no clues, so he had to force himself to say
Those who act are all knight-errants.
One day, Zhao Cheng could no longer keep the confession. Hou Xiaoping, the third master of the Xiuguo Mansion, died unexpectedly. (. Just Love Network)
