[Comprehensive] Code of conduct for famous ministers

Yan Xiubai didn't want to see Li Xunhuan again, but he didn't know that Li Xunhuan was already on his way back to the Central Plains.

Ten years of self-exile is enough to turn a 23-year-old, high-spirited young man into a prodigal drunk who has experienced hardships and is riddled with illnesses.

If Yan Xiubai saw him, he might not dare to recognize him.

Back then, Xiao Li Tanhua was so suave, handsome, and free and easy. Ten years of wind and frost outside the customs made his temples gray, and the corners of his eyes and brows were engraved with the traces of time.

His face was quite haggard, his wrinkled brows were full of sorrow, coupled with the washed white gray clothes, and he bent over from time to time covering his lips and coughing, he looked like an ordinary middle-aged man who had fallen to the extreme.

The only thing that is exactly the same as before, and has not changed after ten years is probably the pair of eyes, light green, warm and soft, full of pleasing cheerfulness and charm.

To a large extent, A Fei was attracted by these eyes and became friends with him. Since he is a friend, he is willing to swing a sword for him and entrust his life and death.

But he could tell that the other party was not happy. This unhappiness became more obvious the closer he got to the Central Plains. A Fei had an instinct almost like a beast. He keenly felt that his new friend was a man with many stories. Men, especially after knowing that the other person's name used to be very famous. '''

'

Li Xunhuan has been in self-imposed exile for ten years, and the reason he came back this time is just to see his old friends—now that his illness is getting worse, but he never thought that he would be involved in the Plum Blossom Thief incident.

The Plum Blossom Pirate once ruled the rivers and lakes 20 years ago, setting off a bloodbath, and committed numerous bloody crimes in less than a year. He once robbed the rich and wealthy houses and wiped out all the people, even the watchdog. Those who offended him were all killed by him within three days, with cruel and bloody methods.

It's not that no one wants to kill him, it's just that Plum Blossom's martial arts are too high and his whereabouts are mysterious, let alone killing him, anyone who has actually seen his true face is already dead.

At that time, people in the world were in panic, until one day, the vicious Plum Blossom Pirate suddenly disappeared, and there was no more news about him. At that time, there were various speculations and rumors in the world, and no one knew whether the Plum Blossom Pirate was alive or dead. , if he is still alive, where is he, and if he is dead, how did he die?Who killed it?Who can kill him?

But no matter whether the Plum Blossom Pirate is alive or dead, a generation of demons finally disappeared, and they are no longer harming the martial arts. It is good after all. I am afraid that no one would have thought that time will go round and round, and now, 20 years later, there will be another story about the Plum Blossom Pirate. matter.

In the past 20 years, the methods of Plum Blossom Pirates have become even more cruel. In just two months, more than a dozen major cases have been committed. The brutal killings, Master Kulin was found dead in his meditation room, etc., each scene left five bloodstains arranged like plum blossoms, which are the marks of plum blossom robbers.

And Li Xunhuan didn't know if it was bad luck or what, he has now become what other people call a plum blossom thief!

Of course he knew his innocence, A Fei also believed him, but others didn't believe it, so Li Xun Huan's purpose of returning to the Central Plains this time became two, to see old friends from the past, and to prove his innocence.

Of course, this journey cannot be smooth, but it is not uncomfortable to be accompanied by Ah Fei, but all the emotions disappeared after returning to Baoding and seeing Long Xiaoyun. His mind went blank, and he had imagined it for ten years. His eldest brother and Shiyin must be loving and happy as husband and wife. His idea that the concession is worthwhile was completely shattered. Lin Shiyin is not in Li Yuan. Lin Shiyin disappeared ten years ago. The two of them were not married. Years, but there is still no news about whether she is alive or dead.

The truth of the matter struck Li Xunhuan fiercely like a bolt from the blue, and he suddenly felt ashamed as never before, why he had to leave early, even if he left one day later, if he was still here, he wouldn't be here ten years later Just found out about this today. '

What has he been doing these ten years?She is drinking, depraved, and exiled herself, but Shiyin doesn't know whether she is alive or dead!

Lin Shiyin, who didn't know whether she was alive or dead, was scolding others with a cold face, while the two people she reprimanded stood in front of her like quails, not daring to hum.

Lin Shiyin used a slender whip to fish out clothes one after another from under the bed. Every time she fished out one piece, her face turned darker, and her eyes when she looked at the two people beside her became more and more unfriendly.

The last thing that came out was a bed sheet that had been hidden in it for an unknown amount of time. It was originally white, but now it was yellowed, crumpled and huddled together. Lin Shiyin could even smell the peculiar smell emanating from it.

She endured it, endured it again, and finally managed to control the desire to swing the whip.

"This is what you and I promised to be neat and clean?!" Lin Shiyin sneered.

Whenever she speaks in this tone, the group of people under her will never dare to provoke her.

Yan Xiubai didn't want to provoke him either, he actually wanted to run away, he learned lightness skills well, but unfortunately a slender hand firmly grasped his sleeve.

Pulling the corners of his lips with difficulty, Yan Xiubai tried to explain, "Well, the outside is very clean. Tangtang and I cleaned it all morning. As for the inside, don't worry about it. No one will come into our room anyway."

There was a snap, that was the sound of the whip being thrown on the ground, "Are you still reasonable?!"

Yan Xiubai shut his mouth wisely, this time it was him who secretly grabbed Ji Tang's clothes.

Ji Tang was still very loyal. With a smile on his face, he stepped forward and hugged Lin Shiyin's arm and said, "Sister Shiyin, you are finally back. I miss you so much after being away for so long."

As Ji Tang said, he got goosebumps on the back of his hands. He had no choice but to be numb by himself. He usually dislikes two people treating him like a child, but now he wants to act like a child. The sacrifice is too great. We must Ask Yan Xiubai to compensate him.

Lin Shiyin, who had long been hardened into a heart of stone, just fell for his tricks, and she was coaxed into obedience after a while, but the death penalty was inevitable, and the pile of dirty clothes had to be washed by herself!

After the meal, Yan Xiubai and Ji Tang sat by the well, with a wooden basin filled with a bunch of culprits.

Yan Xiubai sighed, looked at his elegant and slender hands that could almost be painted, then looked at Ji Tang next to him, then coughed lightly, and shouted, "Tangtang..."

Ji Tang woke up instantly, every time he yelled like this, nothing good happened, "What are you doing?!"

"There is an old saying that the master has something to do with his disciples, and you are my only direct disciple. The master teaches you so hard on weekdays, shouldn't you show it?" Yan Xiu opened his mouth, and Ji Yan guessed .

He snorted coldly: "I have never performed the apprenticeship ceremony, and you have never drank the apprenticeship tea. Who said that we should be informal and equal?!"

Yan Xiu was at a loss for words, and he said unwillingly, "Your master, I have never washed clothes. Now that the weather is cold and the well water is so cold, do you have the heart to see your master's hands holding a pen and playing the piano soaked in cold water?"

"It's as if my hands are street goods, not expensive at all." Ji Yanlang's heart was firm, "Let me remind you, if you delay any longer, Sister Shiyin will beat you with a whip!"

It's too late for him to sever ties with him now, Yan Xiubai thought so, and finally picked up the clothes beside him helplessly.

And Zhao Sheng came here at this time, and before he saw anyone, he rang out loudly, "My lord, the letter from the firm said something serious happened!"

The clothes that had just touched his hands were thrown away in an instant. Yan Xiubai got up, walked out, and said: "Ji Tangtang, I will leave the clothes to you. I believe you will be able to wash them clean and do business with your sister Shiyin!" At the same time, he decided in his heart that he must give Lao Zhao a raise!

Ji Tang, who was entrusted with a heavy responsibility: "..."

Can he kill his teacher...

Yan Xiubai escaped unharmed, but he was not overjoyed, instead his heart was heavy, because something really happened.

Xiaoji Commercial Bank was established by him by contacting the big shopkeepers of various merchants. From the humble beginning, after ten years of operation, it has become quite large. This is also the largest source of income for Chen Sheng County.

Otherwise, how could he support a well-equipped army of nearly 2000 people!

The Chen family is a wealthy family in the county. The head of the family is just forty this year. He was invited to attend the birthday of the head of the Chen family half a year ago. That old fox is tactful and not pedantic. He still likes dealing with him, but It was this old fox who was smiling all day long and never offended anyone, but he died and was chopped into two pieces at the waist, and he didn't even bring back the body.

It didn't take Yan Xiubai much time to figure out the ins and outs. Because the value of the goods this time was too high, the Patriarch of the Chen family was worried about the people under his care, so he personally escorted the goods. Not to mention taking away the goods, the escorts, including the head of the Chen family, a total of 34 people, were all brutally killed.

Yan Xiubai was really angry. He squeezed the letter paper in his hand and said coldly: "Go and find out who this Plum Blossom Bandit is. Send me all the information about him as quickly as possible."

Zhao Sheng was also very angry, hating the murderer's cruel methods.

Hearing Yan Xiubai's order, he quickly responded.

The Plum Blossom Pirates are not a secret. Chensheng County is prosperous in business, and there are countless merchants coming and going. Naturally, there are many kinds of news. Zhao Sheng didn't spend too much effort. Put it in front of Yan Xiubai.

Yan Xiubai sat with the information for half an hour, finally tidied them up, brought them back, and handed them over to Lin Shiyin.

The atmosphere that night was a bit strange, and Ji Tang, who was more delicate in mind, felt something was wrong all of a sudden. He watched Lin Shiyin finish dinner silently from beginning to end, and then entered the room without even saying hello.

In the end, Ji Tang couldn't hold back, and ran to see Yan Xiubai, wanting to ask if something happened to Lin Shiyin.

Yan Xiubai just patted his head, and said calmly: "Your sister Shiyin is fine, she is just making a very important decision in her life."

Ji Tang didn't know what kind of major decision it was. He had never seen Lin Shiyin like this before, so he couldn't help feeling a little worried.

In the early morning of the next day, Lin Shiyin woke up early in the morning. She was dressed in a red dress, with a red whip wrapped around her waist, and a black cloak wrapped her whole body.

This dress is obviously the posture of going on a long trip.

Ji Tang was very surprised when he saw this.

"Have you made a decision?" Yan Xiubai understood somewhat.

Lin Shiyin nodded, "After all these years, I still miss him. Since I can't forget it, then I won't forget it. I'm not the Lin Shiyin I was back then. I can let him figure it out. If I can't beat him, I just want to snatch him away."

Yan Xiubai laughed, "Little Li Tanhua was robbed by someone, well, I look forward to that day."

"I would also like to thank my lord for taking care of me these years. Shiyin is very grateful. After I leave, my lord must take care of me." Without Yan Xiubai, Lin Shiyin would still be the unhappy Lin Shiyin in Li Yuan. The world is so vast.

"It seems that you won't come back." Yan Xiubai frowned, "You really won't come back, I can't do without you now!"

Even though Lin Shiyin's mood is not so brisk right now, she couldn't help laughing out loud, "Don't worry, my lord, I'll come back after I snatch him away."

"Li Xunhuan's martial arts are not bad, you can bring a few more people, and Tangtang will go too." Yan Xiubai patted the bewildered Ji Tang, and continued: "By the way, this case is entrusted to you, find the murderer for me, Old Chen's fox can't die in vain!"
