The fight on the street all fell into the eyes of Lao Qi on the roof. He stared at Li Mu and took out a crossbow from behind.
The Tang Dynasty prohibited private ownership of all long-range weapons, including bows, arrows, and crossbows. But these things were made by people after all, and Lao Qi was a person who was good at making crossbows.
He didn't expect the four bandits to accomplish what happened today. He just wanted the four bandits to cause chaos and create an opportunity for him, an opportunity for him to launch a cold arrow. And now, Li Mu was lying on the ground, it was a
good chance.
"Zhuluhou, you hurt my eldest young master, you should be repaid accordingly. On the way to Huangquan, remember that the person who killed you is Cui Qi!"
Muttering in his mouth, Cui Qiban narrowed one eye and was about to pull the trigger. Suddenly a person appeared in his sight. Cui Qi frowned slightly and put down the crossbow.
"Really her?"
Cui Qi looked carefully and was secretly surprised. While he was hesitating, a gaze suddenly glanced over. When Cui Qi saw this, he didn't hesitate at all and ran away from the other slope of the roof.
On the street, Li Mu screamed in pain. Li Chongyi stood beside him, warily looking at the woman and her bodyguard who were walking over. The woman was very measured and stood two steps away from her, saying: "Master, your
If you are a brave slave, can you sell it to the slave family? No matter how much you spend, the slave family will give you double the amount."
Li Mu grabbed Li Chongyi's hand and stood up little by little while using the air conditioner. He looked up and saw that she was a young woman. She was covered with a gauze and couldn't see her face clearly. She could only hear her voice, but it was extremely pleasant and tall.
She is very tall, about 1.70 meters. She is the tallest woman since Li Mu came to the Tang Dynasty.
He was already married, so Li Mu couldn't bear to look at him anymore, so he said: "He and I are like brothers, and we can't sell him for any money. Thank you madam for your help, it's funny. I am Li Mu, the Marquis of Zhulu. Please give me my name. I will definitely pay you well in the future."
.”
"Zhuluhou?" The woman's tone seemed a little surprised, and she asked quickly: "But the Zhuluhou who said, 'I am able to crush my eyebrows and bend my waist to serve the powerful, which makes me unhappy'? But 'I am so excited that I write and shake the five mountains, and the poem is completed.
The Zhuluhou who is proud of Lingcangzhou? But the Zhuluhou who is like 'the roc rises with the wind in one day and soars ninety thousand miles'..."
The woman said "but" three times in a row, her admiration was beyond words, and she made Li Mu feel embarrassed and said awkwardly: "It's me... Madam, you see that this situation is not suitable for chatting. I seem to need someone."
doctor……"
"Ah!" The woman couldn't help laughing when she saw the dagger on Li Mu's butt, and said quickly: "Master Hou is right, it's the servant's rudeness. This silk and satin shop is my family's property. Why don't Master Hou go inside and have a rest first?
The injury cannot be delayed, so I will go and ask a doctor to come, and then send someone to report it to the official."
"That's great..." Li Mu was almost crying in pain, and he immediately agreed after hearing this. Li Chongyi picked him up and walked to the silk shop. Li Mu saw the silk and satin all over the floor and said, "Madam, please don't worry.
, I bought all these silks and satins, and I will never let you bear the loss."
The woman said: "Master Marquis is joking, a little silk is nothing. I admire Master Marquis' literary talent. If I can meet him, even if the shop is destroyed, so what?"
Li Mu smiled sheepishly, but his butt hurt and he was embarrassed to laugh. The woman covered her mouth, as if trying to hold back her laughter, turned around and said, "Master Hou, wait a moment, I'll make some arrangements."
"Hey... wait, wait a minute!" Suddenly Li Mu stopped the woman and said: "Please send someone to Furong Garden. There is a group of forbidden troops next to Furong Garden. Send someone over and say that I was assassinated. Will you?"
Someone is coming."
"Ah, okay!" the woman responded, turned around and walked out of the shop. Several of her guards had gathered the corpses on the street together. When the woman saw these corpses, she showed no fear at all and lowered her voice slightly.
: "Go and find out who did it, and bring me the person who was responsible. Also, go to Furong Garden and inform Duke Su Guo of the news, and invite a doctor on the way."
The guard said: "Madam, do you really want to tell Duke Su? Don't you want people to know that you have come to Chang'an?"
"Since you can't hide it, let's just tell it. Then go and report it to the official personally, so go ahead."
The guard followed the order and left, and the woman returned to the silk shop. Li Mu was lying on a table at this time, with a dagger stuck in his butt, looking a little funny in his embarrassment. Li Chongyi didn't know how to take care of people, and it hurt to see Li Mu.
He screamed, not knowing what to do, and stood beside him helplessly. Seeing this, the woman picked up a piece of silk from the ground, put it under Li Mu's chest, and asked him to lie on it. Li Mu suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
Li Mu smiled apologetically and said, "I'm just kidding, you haven't told me which family you are from..."
"I..." The woman hesitated for a moment and then said: "The Nu family is the daughter-in-law of the Cui family."
"Cui, Cui?" Li Mu almost shouted, and quickly pulled Li Chongyi closer. He already suspected that the killer was sent by the Cui family. The woman in front of him turned out to be from the Cui family. Could it be that she had just left the wolf pack and entered the tiger's mouth?
?
Seeing his nervous look, the woman quickly explained: "Don't be alarmed, Zhulu Hou. My husband's family is not the Boling Cui family, but the Qinghe Cui family. They have the same surname, but they are not the same family."
"Oh..." Li Mu took a long breath and said: "I was shocked, to be honest, I suspected that the murderer who came to assassinate me today was sent by the Bolingcui family. I punished the eldest son of his family, and they
If you can't fight me, then you want my life. Don't let me find evidence, let me catch them and see how I deal with them!"
The woman looked at Li Mu's gnashing of teeth and said, "Master Hou is indeed young and vigorous, but there are some things that we don't necessarily have to be so tit-for-tat. Maybe if we sit down and talk, the matter will be over?"
"I can't make it!" Li Mu gritted his teeth and said, "I am a person who must retaliate. Before I came to Chang'an, I had already made up my mind!"
Seeing that Li Mu was so determined, the woman stopped trying to persuade her. At this moment, Cheng Yaojin's voice came from outside the door, and he rushed into the shop with a strong smell of alcohol, saying: "Which bastard dares to assassinate me?"
My dear nephew, I will cut him into pieces today...Li Mu, Li Mu, where are you!"
"Uncle Cheng, I'm here." Li Mu shouted quickly. Cheng Yaojin walked over in three steps and two steps at a time. When he saw the dagger on Li Mu's butt, he was about to laugh when he suddenly saw the woman next to him.
He opened his mouth, pointed at the woman, and said: "You, you, your...sister-in-law?"
"Sister-in-law?" Li Mu looked at the woman in surprise, and suddenly remembered that Cheng Yaojin's wife was born in the Cui family of Qinghe, and the husband's family of the woman in front of him was also the Cui family of Qinghe. Could it be that the woman in front of him turned out to be Cheng
The wife who bites the gold wife’s brother?
The woman bowed Yingying and said, "Brother-in-law, I haven't seen you for a few years."
"Ah...yes, yes!" Cheng Yaojin seemed to be stunned, and it took him a long time to recover.
