"It seems that it's clear. I really want to call you uncle after leaving the armament hall." Ling Yue said with a smile.
"The curator is joking." He Qizhou felt a little weak after saying so many words.
Liu Junzhi continued: "My father asked Shanxi to look up Luo Dingbang's life. Unfortunately, there is no archive at all. Fortunately, his martial arts school is quite famous. Some local elders know that he and his brother dominated the Zhou Dynasty.
His lackey was later suppressed by the government and he changed his ways. He never did any bad things again. But his eldest brother Luo Dingbian disappeared. He thought he had been beheaded back then!
There are still three people from the Yan Gang in the Bingma Division. The strange thing is that none of them can be found now. One died of illness early in his life, one drowned mysteriously two months ago, and another one committed suicide on the same day that Wei Tong committed suicide.
Missing! Now that I think about it, Wang Dingbian must have killed one of the two brothers who knew them in advance in order to plan the incident in the suburbs. After the incident was defeated, he killed another person. That person may also be their accomplice.
After the Ministry of Punishment presented these evidences, Jinyiwei immediately sent people back to check Wang Dingbian's files, and then told the presiding officer that Wang Dingbian was Luo Dingbian. Wei Tong had followed Wang Dingbian for five years, and Luo Dingbang was incorporated into Jinyiwei.
The sixth-grade secret agent was initially in charge of Wang Dingbian, but was later assigned to Wei Tong for single-line contact! After that, Wang Dingbian confessed."
He Qizhou secretly vowed that he must become stronger as soon as possible, and sooner or later those dog officials who did not take the lives of the people seriously and those who framed his adoptive father would be brought to justice! However, the murderer who directly harmed him and Xu Mu was finally caught
.
On the night of the fourth day, Zhang Mufeng bid farewell to He Qizhou, saying that tomorrow morning he and his sister Xiaoxue would go south to meet their parents. They would take the same boat south as Xu Mu, and his sister would let him rest in peace and recuperate.
He Qizhou wanted to see him off, but he was yelled at by Mo Lan during the day and had no choice but to give up. His spleen was slightly ruptured and he could not move around for ten days. Lin Chuan and others were responsible for eating, drinking, and diarrhea. He Qizhou still used his right hand on the bed.
I wrote a letter to Xiaoxue and Xu Mu respectively, especially Xiaoxue's letter. I thought about the wording for two or three days, but couldn't think of a suitable sentence. I was afraid of being laughed at by Zhang Mufeng, so I simply wrote two lines: "Xiaoxue
The girl, after a quick glance at Baiyun Tower, was astonished. On the outskirts of Beijing, the Plum Blossoms were impressed by the girl's gentleness and playfulness. Qi Zhou admired her very much, but it is a pity that she is now single and weak, and has too much time to take care of herself. It is a pity that she has not been able to see all the plum blossoms.
, I hope we can meet again one day with Merlin! I wish you a safe journey and good health to your family!"
What she wrote to Xu Mu was even briefer: "Xu Mu, don't discuss brothers and sisters anymore. You are my aunt. We will see you in the Altai Mountains! I have attached a bottle of wound medicine. Remember to return the bottle to me when the time comes."
Then he handed it to Zhang Mufeng, asking him to save face and not to laugh. He also asked Zhang Mufeng to go to his dormitory to get a bottle of Shenling Pills that he had made, and took Xu Mu with him. Zhang Mufeng folded the letter and suppressed his laughter.
He said: "I'm going to go out and take a breath first!" Then the "breathing sound" of "hahaha" came from outside the house.
Another day later, Xiao Jihuai came to visit He Qizhou. Xiao Jihuai pushed Yang Shan away from the house and asked, "He Qizhou, do you blame me for kicking you away that day?"
He Qizhou said sincerely: "Senior Brother Xiao, how could I blame you? It was you who saved us both. It's not too late for me to thank you!"
"I also lost my temper in a hurry. How is your recovery?"
"I'll probably have to lie down for six or seven days. As for the meridians, bones and internal organs, I don't know when they will recover." In fact, He Qizhou's injuries were not necessarily much lighter than Xiaoxue's.
"Do you like Xu Mu?" Xiao Jihuai suddenly asked a strange question.
"What? Don't be ridiculous. I've always regarded him as a brother. To be honest, I already have someone I admire in my heart, but..." He Qizhou suddenly felt a strong sense of guilt. The other person was Xiao Jihuai's fiancée.
, but he wants to fight for love.
"But what?" Xiao Jihuai seemed to be relieved, but in his heart he vaguely felt that Xu Mu liked He Qizhou.
"However, I don't know if the other party will accept me, so I can't tell you who it is." He Qizhou also knew from Zhang Mufeng's words that Xiaoxue would probably resist the marriage even without him, so he felt a little better
.
"It doesn't matter, then you can rest in peace and recuperate." Xiao Jihuai stood up and said goodbye.
He Qizhou stayed in bed for another seven days, during which the little princess came to see him once, Jiang He twice (both in the name of visiting his father), Liu Yingzhi once every two days, and Jiang Di also visited once in person, and even took the initiative to pay for it.
No, He Qizhou was quite impressed by his thick skin.
The emperor issued an imperial edict to express condolences to him for committing a dangerous crime in order to investigate the case and for being a role model for court officials. He was awarded a special reward of one hundred taels of gold. The Ministry of Punishment also awarded him five hundred taels of silver. During this period, he received a reply from his family. The last trial was
The county magistrate of Linchuan took He Qizhou High School's imperial list and beat gongs and drums in various places in the county for three days. He also brought craftsmen to repair He Lian's house. He Lian scolded him severely for saying that there were so many disaster victims.
Instead of repairing my house, I come here to flatter you when I have time!
He Qizhou imagined the embarrassment of the fat magistrate and smiled knowingly. He Lian also said that everything was fine at home, so that he could practice with peace of mind. In addition, he once again emphasized the five iron rules when setting off in the letter! He Qizhou replied with a letter,
Of course, I didn't mention the injury. I just wanted to ensure that I was safe. I enclosed the five hundred taels of silver that I had just received. The letter was delivered from the Ministry of Punishment, and I didn't worry that anyone would dare to open the letter privately.
After being able to get out of bed and walk around, He Qizhou tried to exercise Qigong and adjust his breathing. He found that if he only exercised the first half of Huazhen Gong, it would be quite helpful in recovering from internal injuries. However, the second half was too strong and would be harmful if done too hastily.
In the days that followed, because the robbery in the suburbs had been concluded, He Qizhou basically stayed in the Arms Training Hall at the beginning of the month except for going to the Ministry of Justice to collect his salary. If he was interested, he would listen to the lectures. If he was not interested, he would spend the whole day in the library studying various martial arts schools.
, but he did not simply want to practice according to the classics, but more wanted to understand Yang Zheng's comments on various martial arts schools, and truly wanted to integrate the strengths of each martial arts into his own Quanzhen martial arts.
Yang Shan and Lin Chuan regarded him as half a professor, and the two of them made rapid progress. Wang Dingbian had been beheaded in public, but the assassination still left a shadow in the armament hall. Anyone with a scheming mind knew that He Qizhou
His whereabouts were most likely leaked by colleagues in the library, so during He Qizhou's recovery period, one of Yang Shan, Lin Chuan, Li Ruogu, Wu Erhan and others would basically always be by He Qizhou's side. He Qizhou felt grateful in his heart.
Incomparable.
In the blink of an eye, winter turned to spring, and it was already the season of blooming flowers in early April. He Qizhou had mostly recovered from his internal injuries a month ago. He couldn't wait to secretly go to the bottom of the lake to practice martial arts. Now his fractures have healed, and he is in great spirits. He just met Lu Zhenyao for a sparring session in the evening.
After Jinzhi returned to his residence, he saw the handsome and handsome Xiao Jihuai waiting for him in the courtyard of the small courtyard.
"Congratulations, junior brother, I heard that you have removed the splint and your body has recovered?" Xiao Jihuai's smile was as warm as the spring breeze.
"Well, Professor Mo said he has recovered as before." He Qizhou replied.
"Tomorrow I will go to the north again. Tonight, a few friends want to do it for me. Last time I was too rude at the door of the sword shop, so I want to invite you to a banquet. It's a courtesy for me to accompany you. I don't know how to congratulate you, junior brother.
Do you have time?" Xiao Jihuai asked.
Seeing that Xiao Jihuai came to invite him in person, He Qizhou's injuries were healed. Of course, he was embarrassed to shirk the situation and said: "I'm sorry, I haven't formally thanked my senior brother for his life-saving grace. I should do it for my senior brother and wish him the best."
Senior brother, kill more Zhou captives in the north and make more achievements."
"Okay, then it's settled. I'll be waiting for you at the entrance of Yumen Xiaozhu tonight at midnight." Xiao Jihuai said.
Yumen Xiaozhu? What a familiar name! Oh, by the way, it’s the brothel where the four beauties Qiudi in the capital live. He Qizhou thought about it. He bid farewell to Xiao Jihuai and saw that it was less than an hour, so he hurriedly freshened up and changed his clothes.
After putting on clean clothes, I took care of him with Lin Chuan and the others before setting off for the Yumen Villa in the Imperial City.
The imperial city is not big, and Yumen Xiaozhu is also easy to find. Unlike the tall brick walls everywhere in the city, the two-foot-high outer walls of Yumen Xiaozhu along the street are actually made of yellow mud, and the top of the wall is well repaired.
The thatched eaves and low eaves give it a feeling of desolation in the Western Regions. Different from the two large stone lions standing in front of the general mansion, there are two stone sculptures of Kunlun slaves with naked upper bodies and muscular bodies at the door. The boy who greets guests at the door also has a high nose and sunken eyes.
The barbarians from the Western Regions.
Xiao Jihuai stood at the door and welcomed He Qizhou in, who was going alone. The Yumen Xiaozhu was indeed extraordinary. When entering, you bypassed the screen wall, and there was actually a huge and gentle sand dune inside! Xiao Jihuai said that the sand was transported from Longxi.
Come, this small building is occupied by his family, so He Qizhou is allowed to be free and have a drink today. He Qizhou's head started to hurt when he heard that he was going to drink with Xiao Jihuai again.
Looking around the sand dunes, there are scattered mud-walled courtyards in the style of the Western Regions. However, in each courtyard there are tall evergreen trees spreading their branches and leaves, and you can see the greenery when you look up.
Xiao Jihuai took He Qizhou to a small courtyard. What was completely different from the desolation outside was that inside the earthen wall, the entire atrium was almost completely occupied by a pool with clear water and lotus green water; an earth slope rose in the center of the pool.
It is a huge cherry tree, with thousands of flowers blooming on the canopy-like canopy; the surrounding courtyard walls are covered with red and pink roses, and the pleasant fragrance fills the entire courtyard.
Irregular pieces of bluestone are connected to form a path on the pond, leading through dense and dense clusters of water lilies to the inner room in the north of the courtyard. Koi carp swim from time to time under the water lily leaves. He Qizhou couldn't help but admire the gardener.
of painstaking effort.
Xiao Jihuai introduced that these were the decorations of the owner of the small courtyard. Originally, the courtyard was filled with dead trees, rubble and the like. The deliberate depression was far less comfortable than this oasis.
