Although the carriage of the Emperor Weifu is not huge, it is expensive.The guard driving the carriage looked at the emperor strolling leisurely in front of him, feeling very anxious in his heart.If this continues, the emperor will definitely attract other people's ideas.This capital city is treacherous, how many people are secretly staring at the emperor, it is only because he sits high in the imperial city and has thousands of protections that they can't do anything.

No, even so, there are people who can do it.

The guard driving the car didn't know how many hidden guards were protecting the emperor. It wasn't that he didn't trust the hidden guards, but he also had his own responsibilities.He didn't want to bear the responsibility for the lack of protection because of himself and the entire palace guard battalion.

The guard hurried up the carriage, caught up with the emperor, and said, "My lord, you have been out for a while, shouldn't it be time to go back?"

The emperor smiled and said, "I only took a few steps, don't worry, nothing will happen."

"Subordinates dare not!" The guard immediately lowered his head, terrified, but even more uncertain in his heart.

"Take a good look at the road." The emperor seemed to be in a good mood and said.

The guard had no choice but to raise his head to watch the road.He followed behind the two, watching the emperor and the boy named Liuchu walking side by side, he couldn't help making various guesses in his heart.

The emperor's reputation is excellent, although no one dares to talk about the emperor.The old man who served the late emperor in the palace said that the ability to serve the present majesty is the blessing of the Bodhisattva who burned high incense.It was also the old man who once talked about the "well water place" in the palace with a mysterious look.

The guard driving the car thought, no matter the hidden guards at the "well water" or their guard camp, their responsibilities are the same. As long as they can protect the emperor, why should they stick to where and in what form?

He looked at the young man, hoping that through his thoughts, the young man would also urge the emperor to return to the palace as soon as possible.

The boy actually turned around.

The guard was taken aback.The young man glanced at him indifferently, and actually turned his head to speak to the emperor.

"Young master, go back." The boy said.

The emperor's smile faded a little, he sighed, and slowly closed the folding fan: "Stealing half a day's leisure in Fusheng... whatever."

After hearing this, the guards hurriedly drove the carriage to the emperor and removed the stool.The emperor clasped the car door and was about to board the car, but he turned his head and said to Xiao Fang behind him, "Don't go back yet."

The emperor took out a jade pendant from his waist: "I came out this time because I had something to do with Lu Xiaofeng, but I just forgot about it for a moment. If you give this jade pendant to him, he will naturally understand."

After the emperor finished speaking, he threw the jade pendant at Xiao Fang, and then boarded the car alone.Xiao Fang saw the emperor glanced at him, and put down the curtain of the car.The carriage gradually moved away.The street was full of people's voices, all of a sudden they attacked Xiao Fang.

Holding the jade pendant, Xiao Fang didn't understand what the emperor was thinking.Is this really going to set him free?

He turned around and walked towards the restaurant.Lu Xiaofeng and Su Shaoping should have gone to another place to drink, maybe Huamanlou is still there.As long as you find Huamanlou, you will naturally find Lu Xiaofeng.But Xiao Fang was still a little worried. He couldn't figure out the logic of time, and he didn't know how what happened now would affect three years later.Could he not reveal his identity in front of Huamanlou?

But it's too late.Hua Manlou heard him speak, and stood in front of him, confronting him for a moment.With Hua Manlou's keenness, if he reappears, he should be able to see through it very quickly.

Xiao Fang smiled and shook his head, just let it go, don't deal with things that you can't figure out clearly.

He walked quickly towards the restaurant.

At this time, Xiao Fang suddenly felt a killing intent.With a shudder in his heart, he looked towards an alley beside him.It was a dark alley even in daytime, sandwiched by tall buildings on both sides.Xiao Fang opened the map and found that the depth of the alley was marked with a red dot.

He turned and walked into the alley.This long and narrow alley is obviously used as a utility room by the restaurants and restaurants on both sides, with bamboo baskets, dilapidated benches, and broken tiles piled up in disorder... leaving only a gap that can be passed sideways.

Xiao Fang turned sideways and almost wiped the dirty wall before passing through the alley.Out of the alley, came to the back of the market.There is a low canopy on the back, extending out, and at the end is a piece of eaves.

Although it was noon at this time, the sun did not seem to shine here.Xiao Fang smelled a bloody smell, he looked around, and found a person in the shade of the dwarf.

The man fell to the ground and his throat was sealed with a sword.

At this time, that terrifying killing intent came to Xiao Fang again.Xiao Fang didn't turn his head back, he blocked the cold light with a backhand sword, the attacker was taken aback, Xiao Fang turned his sword and pointed at the man's wrist holding the sword, at the same time the man also turned his head.Only then did he see clearly that the attacker was dressed in black, with a thin stature and hunched back, but the sword in his hand shone with a frightening cold light, and the sword groove seemed to be still covered with blood.

Seeing Xiao Fang's counterattack, the attacker was surprised for some reason, and hastily withdrew his sword, his figure receded, and disappeared into the darkness.

Xiao Fang was about to chase, but he heard a sound of hemoptysis.Looking back, the man was not dead yet.Xiao Fang hurried over, squatted down, took out the hemostatic medicine and sprinkled it on the man's neck, tore off a piece of cloth, and pressed the wound tightly.

But the wound was too deep, and Xiao Fang knew in his heart that all these efforts were useless.

The man also knew that he was hopeless, so he kept waving his hands.Xiao Fang saw that he seemed to be writing, so he quickly looked at it carefully.

But that person has reached the end of his strength, what else can he write?He struggled desperately for a while, staring blankly, breathless.

Xiao Fang sighed and closed the man's eyes.

At this time, several people suddenly chased him from the alley and on the roof, and landed behind him.Those few people saw Xiao Fang squatting in front of the dead man, they thought Xiao Fang was the murderer, one of them shouted: "Zhu Zi dare you!" He raised his sword and attacked.Xiao Fangtou also skillfully blocked the attack with the scabbard, the man's sword was blocked, and he couldn't press it down at all.The man was very surprised in his heart, and even used [-]% of his strength.

Xiao Fang suddenly withdrew from Cambridge, the person was like a puff of smoke, he shifted his shape, left the direction pointed by the man's sword, and stood up.The strength was withdrawn, and the man jumped forward, almost falling on the dead man.When he saw the deceased, his eyes widened immediately: "Qiu Ji, I didn't expect you to be murdered too!"

The man was inexplicably sad and angry, and turned around with a sword.This sword came extremely fast, as fast as lightning, and it was much more delicate than the brute force used just now.Xiao Fang's heart trembled, and he was about to make a move, but saw that two fingers had clamped the blade.

The red cloak flashed in front of his eyes, this person was naturally Lu Xiaofeng.

Lu Xiaofeng pinched the sword, the man blushed and said angrily: "Lu Xiaofeng, what do you mean, do you still want to protect the murderer?"

Lu Xiaofeng saw the dead person on the ground, his face sank like water, and he said to the person: "Of course I won't protect the murderer, but Brother Cui, how do you know that this little brother is the murderer?"

"I saw it with my own eyes, is there any fake?"

"We only saw this little brother stand up from Brother Qiu with our own eyes, but we didn't see him make a move."

At this moment, another person said: "Lu Xiaofeng, tell me about brother Cui's situation." It was Hua Manlou walking over.

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Same as the previous cases, one sword seals the throat."

Hua Manlou put on a pair of almost transparent gloves, made of unknown material.He squatted down in front of the deceased, touched the wound, then touched the whole body of the deceased, stood up and said, "It is indeed the same as the previous cases."

These people seem to be convinced by Huamanlou's words.Hua Manlou wiped the gloves carefully, took off the gloves, and put them in a kit.He walked up to Xiao Fang and said "offended": "My lord, can I take a look with your sword?"

Xiao Fang was thinking, did Hua Manlou recognize him?

He handed the sword to Hua Manlou.

Hua Manlou was slightly surprised.This was already the third time the boy had surprised him.The first time was a glimpse in a restaurant.Although Huamanlou couldn't see it, she could feel the strangeness brought by her sight.The second time, it was Hua Manlou who held down his sword hilt.The other party was not angry at all, but very trusting and relaxed.

The third time is now.When he was slandered as a murderer, he gave the accessories to himself indifferently.

Hua Manlou took it, drew out the long sword, brushed the spine of the sword with his finger, touched the blade, turned around and said to the people who were chasing him together: "Brother Qiu's wound is slightly wide. Although the throat is sealed with a sword, the wound seems to be burned. So-so. This brother's sword is slender, long and flat, not the sword used to kill Brother Qiu."

Among the crowd, a middle-aged man from Jinyi Hua Mansion came out and said, "Since Mr. Lu and Mr. Hua think that this person is not a murderer, then I will trust the judgment of Mr. Lu and Mr. Hua for the time being. It's just..." He Looking sharply at Xiao Fang: "This person appeared at the scene of the crime so quickly, and the suspicion has not yet been cleared."

Cui Xing, who just drew his sword, lost his strength when he heard this.Lu Xiaofeng let go of his fingers, walked to the side, and leaned against the wall with his arms folded.

Hua Manlou put away Xiao Fang's long sword, handed it to him, and said with a smile, "Thank you."

Xiao Fang was startled when he heard the word "thank you".It has been a long time since he and Huamanlou said thank you.Because they don't have to say it.Xiao Fang took the sword, feeling a little melancholy in his heart, hoping to complete the task sooner and return to three years later.

Three years later, Huamanlou is still waiting for him.

At this time, Huamanlou felt Xiaofang's confusion for a moment, but he didn't understand what happened.

Cui Xing picked up his friend's body and said, "Everyone, I can't let him stay here alone. What we discussed before, after I arrange Brother Cui's funeral, I will naturally go to you."

"Wait!" said the middle-aged man in Jinyi Hua Mansion: "Why do you want to look far away? It's better to arrange Brother Qiu in Bingzhulou for the time being, and make plans after everything comes to light."

Cui Xing was very moved, but hesitant: "Master Wu, isn't this convenient?"

"What's inconvenient?" Mr. Wu asked, "If the earthen jar is not separated from the mouth of the well, the general will inevitably die in battle. No one knows what will happen tomorrow, so why worry so much?"

Seeing that Louzhu Wu spoke sincerely, Cui Xing didn't say anything more.

Master Wu said to Lu Xiaofeng: "Mr. Lu, what do you think?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Since everyone has agreed, I naturally have no objections."

Master Wu looked at Hua Manlou again: "Young Master Hua, what about you?"

Hua Manlou said: "Please trouble Master Wu."

Master Wu nodded in satisfaction, his eyes turned cold, and he looked at Xiao Fang.If Louzhu Wu was warm like spring to comrades just now, now it is cold in winter to Xiaofang.

"This little brother..."

Before Master Wu finished speaking, Lu Xiaofeng put his arm on Xiao Fang's shoulder and said, "This little brother naturally wants to go together."

Lord Wu said: "But, he hasn't cleared his suspicion yet."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "But he is also one of us."

Master Wu was shocked.

Lu Xiaofeng said: "This little brother is exactly Fang Liuchu who ranks ninth on the 'Quick Sword List'."

At this time, although Xiao Fang still maintained an extremely indifferent face, there were countless question marks in his heart: What is Lu Xiaofeng talking about?
