Chapter 853: How Easy is it to Get a Dragon and a Tiger?

The weather sometimes snows and sometimes clears, and the weather often comes and goes indefinitely. At first, the snow was still falling, and then the clouds and fog were slightly neglected, tearing away the gloomy veil. It turned out that the clouds opened and the fog dispersed before the snow stopped, and the sun was excellent.

In the winter of previous years, it was difficult to see such scenery, but now it is common in Shangqi Capital. Most people are accustomed to it, and not many people pay too much attention to such scenery. After all, it stands to reason that there are many rich people in the capital, so it should be

Leisure is the key, but it is also because the capital city is rich, things are often as chaotic as wadding, and there are piles of piles, and they dare to compete with Feixue for the number.

Just when it seems like this, the winter is getting thicker and the sounds on the ground are gradually returning to the quiet season. This is a rare and good time for people to rest, but two assassins have been causing trouble in the capital, which quickly makes people's hearts wander.

, there is no peaceful day to speak of. Although the capital officials and the high-ranking officials responsible for major and minor affairs in the capital have sealed the matter everywhere and strictly ordered not to spread it, since the news came and went at the emperor's feet very fast, so all efforts were made from top to bottom.

However, as usual, it is inevitable that clues will be revealed, so that the ministers in the capital will know that although everyone is not in danger, they still think this matter is quite strange. In ancient times, when something happens, everyone has different minds, and it is inevitable to have to

In my opinion, these three words often lead to endless debates. However, for this rare and major event such as the assassination, everyone in the capital has a very consistent tone.

It can be said that Xun Yuantuo's house has been quite lively for the past two days. Compared with the unclean scene in the past, it is even more lively. Especially the officials in the capital and the imperial guards with spears and armor in the imperial city are all here.

They came in several groups and surrounded the entire mansion. There were people guarding both inside and outside, and there was no place to stay. Last night, Li Kuang was hungover, so he picked up the empty wine jar and fell asleep in the dark. But this morning he was going to

He went out to pour thousands of miles away, but he was blocked by the scale armor who had already arrived early. When the sword was placed on his neck, his legs almost collapsed. It was not until Xun Yuantuo came to the rescue in person that he finally made it.

A hearty and comfortable one.

"I am Cui Shun and Cui Hongque, the governor of Jingzhao County. I have heard of Mr. Xun's reputation for a long time. Although I haven't paid him a visit because I don't have much time to spare, I just came to visit today and made trouble. It really shouldn't be done. I hope you won't take it personally."

This time we were meeting guests not in the courtyard, but in the inner hall of the mansion. Firstly, it was because it was too early and it was too cold outside the house. Secondly, even Xun Yuantuo had not expected that this famous man would

The Jingzhao County Magistrate was surprised to see that he came to visit so early. Therefore, he did not ask the maids to place heating objects in the courtyard in advance. He simply led the somewhat wealthy minister to the inner hall and ordered the two maids to make tea and serve it.

Eat some snacks.

"Since you are older and younger, and you are an important minister, and you are white, it is appropriate to call me Brother Cui." Suddenly, Xun Yuantuo, wearing only a thick coat, sat across from the person in front of him, talking and laughing.

Without any embarrassment, he spoke freely, "Brother Cui just said that, I really can't take it seriously. From ancient times to the present, why did the Jingzhao County Governor come to visit Zhima Xiaoguan? Regardless of the age of the court or the level of ability.

, or age, they are all far further ahead than I am below. After all, we are all seniors, not to mention unintentionally causing such things, but it made my brother and I very uncomfortable when we met for the first time.

It's special, but it's also a rare happy event. It's a blessing in disguise, nothing more than that."

Perhaps Mr. Xun's other skills are still lacking in proficiency, but his verbal skills have already been learned very deeply from his very talkative Mr. Zhou. Even if he thinks he only scratches the surface of what he can do, he can handle most things and he can do it quietly.

Hiding the means and tone deep down, Cui Hongque didn't need to think about it carefully, but he could pick up the cleverness and flattery in these words at hand. Compared with ordinary polite greetings, I don't know how much better.

But after all, Cui Shun is not an ordinary person. He deliberately did not answer the question first. Instead, he raised his eyes and looked around, with a flash of light in his eyes. He said with rare emotion, "The last time I came here was a long time ago. At that time

The famous old man in this house has not yet moved out of the capital. I think back then I was still a young and promising young man with no money to spare, but now I have a few spots on my temples and my figure is getting richer.

, I can’t compare to young people like you.” Then he looked at the surrounding furnishings, and then returned his gaze to Mr. Xun’s face. His smile did not diminish, and he said with great appreciation, “Feihua Order is not an overly brilliant skill.

, based on this to judge whether a person has real talent or knowledge, although it is reasonable, there are still more ways to go, but if you can face hundreds of flying flowers, why can't you say that you, Xun Yuantuo, can ascend to the sky and overturn the mountains and the sea?

A great talent who has moved to another place? Nowadays, there are many people who are jealous. The reason is quite similar.

When you understand, you ask yourself that you cannot compare, so you are afraid."

"If it is said that the Holy One loves talent, then the ugly second grade will give this mansion to you. It is even more true that Mr. Xun deserves the reputation of being an unparalleled talent. However, privately, I still want to take up the posture of my senior and inform you.

Just a few words of nonsense, being talented is a good thing, but how do you look at it? There have been no assassins in Naan Imperial City for many years. Even when the world was at war, there were no assassins. The pearl washed away the dust and shined brightly.

After all, you have to ask yourself whether it will burn other people’s eyes.”

He was also unconventional, and he never left any words behind his words. He clearly gave him a good word of advice that seemed to be insignificant but actually meant something. For example, he took the Cuju ball, added a little bit of strength, and passed it on to Xun Yuan again.

"Tuo" means neither light nor heavy, just worthy of it.

It's not like Xun Yuantuo didn't know the pros and cons of the truth, but the more he knew the truth, Cui Shun's kind-hearted advice naturally became a bit tasteless. People in high positions often have to go around in circles to speak, even if they can taste some aftertaste.

, most of them are very vague, but since others are showing goodwill, of course they should not be disrespectful to others. They immediately cupped their fists and handed over their hands, and thanked Cui Shun seriously for the advice, "I have neither shared the saint's worries or solved his problems, nor have I made any suggestions, nor have I tried to replace him."

I am really ashamed to move here so arrogantly just to show off my insignificant amount of ink in order to benefit the common people. If I don't have Brother Cui to care about my safety, I am afraid I will become a laughing stock in the capital.

The best thing about being the first person in the capital to die at the hands of assassins in many years is that he was still a lowly official, and it would be difficult to find anyone to reason with."

Let me start from the beginning. Yesterday at noon, Mr. Xun rarely stayed at home. Instead, he took Wang Fuzhuo and others to stroll around the capital. Even though there was a heavy snowfall, these people were really poorly dressed.

Whether it was a whim, or he had forgotten about it, he put it off again and again, and finally Mr. Xun, who had a bad memory recently, remembered this, and was not willing to delay, so he went out with these tall and powerful warriors.

I made some new outfits, firstly because they don’t look good, and secondly, to keep out the cold. I also wanted to see if the blacksmiths in the capital had any good iron, so it was urgent to replace their weapons.

Mr. Xun had long been impatient with the rather strange-looking spear in Wang Fu's hand. Although it looked quite scary, it was probably a very powerful weapon. But when he was out, let alone in the capital, why?

Look how awkward it is, I saw that the long pole was almost rusty, so I happened to change it when I was out, so as not to have to make another trip later.

So Xun Yuantuo didn't even tell a few people and took them directly to the capital to measure a few new clothes. Then he took a few people to the blacksmith shop, intending to hit the fate and see if there were any.

Favorite weapon.

When there was still a street away from the blacksmith shop, a dozen people came out from the corner of the street. Most of them were using short knives and concealed weapons and did not wear armor. They almost collided with Xun Yuantuo and others, and they started fighting without warning.

He said it calmly, but it was dangerous at that time. Even though these people were very quick in their actions, they still did not stop the two spear darts, which were firmly pierced into Xun Yuantuo's forearm. Fortunately, these people were extremely skilled and all wore armor.

If not, Xun Yuantuo would have been killed in just a flash of lightning. Especially Dou Chong, who simply used his body to shield Mr.

, the remaining two people moved extremely fast, killing most of the incoming assassins in the blink of an eye, and Xun Yuantuo was able to turn the corner.

Cui Shun took the hidden spear weapon handed over by Xun Yuantuo, held it in the palm of his hand and looked at it carefully for a long time with the help of a candle. Then he couldn't help but pull Master Xun's forearm and looked around the injured area. He saw that there was no sign of poisoning.

Slowly relaxing his tone, he praised him, "You have unintentionally offended many powerful people with great backgrounds. Regarding the use of poison, I once heard people in the martial arts talk about it in the early years. Many assassins are not willing to use poison. This is because

In order to avoid being seen through, the rules in this capital are very strict. If you want to poison the spear, you must leave some clues. It is probably because you are afraid of being traced. It is probably because you feel that Mr. Xun has never practiced martial arts. Naturally,

He didn't have the ability to defend himself, but unexpectedly, he was stopped by the young master's bodyguard, which was indeed a great blessing."

Xun Yuantuo did not have lingering fears, and said with a smile, "Most of the people who study are stupid and careless people. It is probably because God can't see it that they escaped this disaster. The assassin's body was prepared in advance.

, placed outside the mansion, Brother Cui can see clearly when he goes there, but

When I went to take a look before, there were no traces to be found. It was really not an easy job. I had to rely on Brother Cui to find out who was behind the scenes. I might not be able to follow the clues, but at least I could be more careful in the future, and maybe I could solve the problem.

Get rid of hostility and slowly get to know each other."

Of course Cui Shun knew that this was a polite statement, but the second half of the sentence was absolutely correct.

Nowadays, Mr. Xun is a young man who is highly regarded by the saint. He dares to send assassins in the capital city and risk the anger of the saint to assassinate Mr. Xun. How can he really follow the clues to find out who this person is? In the final analysis, if it were someone else,

, it is estimated that even he, the governor of Jingzhao County, does not need to come in person. If he cannot distinguish between reliance and advance and retreat, how can this young man who has abandoned the Xun family's lineage stand firm in the capital.
