The moon comes to take pictures

The moment Liu Jiao lost his mind, the maid ran away, leaving him standing there slumped.

Liu Jiao doesn't understand why Dali Temple detains people. He knows that Tiantian is fine... what he doesn't understand is Nanjing and those people who pretend to be false.For the first time, Liu Jiao hated his own ignorance, hated that he was useless at all.He has always felt that there is nothing wrong with being an idler. How can there be happiness without intrigue?Some people just like to drill into it.

What's so good about power, all the time, there is a huge burden on your body, you can't breathe for a moment, you can't love, you can't hate, people who have won power to the extreme, I'm afraid they can't even be human.Liu Jiao was thinking blankly, many people's faces flashed before her eyes, but Zhang Shenxiu was the one who finally stopped.

Still angry in his heart, Liu Jiao got on with him and didn't plan to go back to Lianzhou Garden. In the dark night, there was not a single noise. He stood quietly, as if he was going to be drowned by the night. After a long time, he finally take a step.

Walking northeast from Zhongyi Bo's Mansion, the official office of Dali Temple is located. Liu Jiao didn't think that Nanjing was big before, and he could go anywhere quickly by horse-drawn carriage. Now he only reached the gate of Dali Temple when the sky was about to turn white, relying only on his legs.

In front of the yamen, which is usually loosely managed, there are about a dozen soldiers standing in a forest at this time. They look like they have been transferred from the barracks temporarily, and it is not easy to talk.It was not yet dawn early in the morning, only Liu Jiao was wandering here alone, a few guards looked at him and sent a man to chase him away.

Chasing people away was nothing more than those harsh words, Liu Jiao refused to leave, and begged: "Is there a trial going on inside? Can the messenger bring some words out for me?" He said, holding the officer's hand Hold on, with slender fingers, he took out an emerald ring, "Ask what's wrong...it was fine yesterday..."

The soldier didn't accept this, and pushed Liu Jiao away: "How can you let me know about important matters? Leave quickly, so as not to suffer!"

"How could he be detained? What did he do that deserves to be detained for interrogation?" Liu Jiao didn't listen, tears rolled out of his eyes, he looked so charming, but the officers and soldiers were unmoved.

"Master, please do me a favor!" Liu Jiao rushed over and kowtowed non-stop.

These officers and soldiers didn't allow him to enter, because there was a big man inside, so it was hard to punch and kick a commoner, so they pushed and pushed impatiently, with heavy hands, pushing Liu Jiao to roll on the ground several times.There was a young man who couldn't see him anymore, so he stepped forward and pulled him up, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Say it's Tongwo, that's all right, go back quickly, see that you are not old, don't get angry .”

Liu Jiao was stunned, he didn't expect that in just two days, two families in Nanjing had stumbled against the Japanese pirates.

Suddenly, he thought of Zhang Shenxiu's letter. What does the Japanese bandit's letter to Zhang Shenxiu have to do with the Ning family and Master?In a daze, Liu Jiao seemed to be pulled by someone, and he was dragged into the alley with all his strength. He subconsciously called out, waved his hands, and hurriedly grabbed the wall.

"Liu Jiao!"

Liu Jiao opened his mouth to scold, but when the voice stopped, Zhang Shenxiu grabbed his wrist and said in a good voice, "I've been looking for you all night, what are you doing here? Let's go, the sedan chair is waiting behind. He glanced at the soldier guarding the gate with fear, "It's a little housework, don't make trouble here!"

Liu Jiao's nameless anger rose all of a sudden, and he slapped him violently: "Who is with your family!"

Several officers and soldiers guarding the gate noticed them and looked here frequently.One is a young man, and the other is a young man with a handsome face. They are entangled together, which really makes people suspicious. The young man just now seemed to be coming over with a gun.

Zhang Shenxiu covered half of her face, anxiously: "Go home, go home first, it's easy to say!"

The sky is getting brighter, and many ordinary people have gone out to make a living. There are a few good people passing by, stop, and look at them in twos and threes.

"I have no family!" Liu Jiao gritted his teeth resentfully, "Stop being hypocritical, I can't afford a relative like you!"

Zhang Shenxiu couldn't hear him talking like that, and felt pain in his heart as if being torn apart. The more Liu Jiao struggled, the more impatient he became, and he wanted to hug him to prevent him from leaving. They exchanged glances, then walked over here.

"Here's your catcher!" Liu Jiao yelled unexpectedly.

Zhang Shenxiu was startled, and taking advantage of his distraction, Liu Jiao bit him fiercely on the tiger's mouth, Zhang Shenxiu withdrew his hand in pain, at this juncture, Liu Jiao pushed him, and he was mixed in more and more densely. Among the crowd, he was nowhere to be found.

Zhang Shenxiu felt lost, and didn't know where to go to find Liu Jiao next, and was thinking of going back to wait for a while, when suddenly a force came from his shoulder, knocking him down as if the sky was falling and the earth was falling.

"What, what are you doing!" He was dizzy and could only scream.

Several soldiers surrounded him and looked at him maliciously.Soon he was ordered to reveal his identity. There are many kidnappers in Nanjing, and those soldiers obviously regarded him as a human trafficker and wanted to kill him for a sum of money.

But Zhang Shenxiu never knew the key to it, so she couldn't argue with it.Just as they were arguing with reason, a few people came out from the gate of Dali Temple, all wearing jade belts and black hats, surrounded by a younger man in the middle, who looked kindly, with round eyes, thin build, and pompous But full, the corners of his mouth seemed to be smiling but not smiling, making people unable to understand his emotions.

"Duke." The officers and soldiers who were questioning at the door immediately stopped, and dragged Zhang Shenxiu to the back with a guilty conscience.Chang Xi glanced calmly, saw Zhang Shenxiu's flushed face behind the officers and soldiers, suddenly smiled, said something to the people behind him, and someone sent word to Dali Temple.The next moment, the group of people still walked steadily, and slowly moved towards the direction of the garrison hall.

After Chang Xi left for a while, those small ones came out one after another from the side hall of Dali Temple, wearing only six or seven grades of civilian clothes.

The two eunuchs respectfully brought a few people to meet them, one of them was Wu Shiji, the son of Dali Siqing in Nanjing, and now he was also working as an idler in the yamen. A young man was talking and laughing: "Weiqing, this time I really relieved my anger!"

Zhang Shenxiu was extremely embarrassed at the moment, when he heard Xie Yan's name, his first thought was to run away, but Xie Yan had already come over there.

"Shu Zhou!" he called out with concern, "I heard that someone stopped someone outside, but who knew it was you."

Although the officers and soldiers who interrogated him didn't know Xie Yan, they knew who Wu Shiji was, so they thought they were unlucky, and let go of the fat sheep that was on their lips in resentment.

Zhang Shenxiu got out of sleep, wiped off his sweat, avoided Xie Yan's gaze, and could see that he was not feeling well: "What are you doing here?"

"I have something to do at night, and the Duke asked me to help." Xie Yan answered very naturally, as if it was really just a matter of eating and drinking, "What's wrong with Shuzhou?" He glanced around and turned his voice Depression: "These soldiers are very difficult to deal with, let's go back and talk about it."

The two said goodbye to Wu Shiji and got into the sedan chair. Seeing Zhang Shenxiu kneading his waist, Xie Yan couldn't help but asked with concern: "Did you get punched and kicked just now? I have some Siamese oil that the governor rewarded. Go back and ask someone to give it to you." Wipe some blood stasis... Speaking of which, why did you provoke these people?"

Zhang Shenxiu was unhappy: "It's a long story."

"Like this, did you quarrel with your family?"

"..."

"I guessed it right," Xie Yan laughed, knowing it in advance, "Arguing is still fun, but don't go too far, it will spoil the harmony."

Zhang Shenxiu responded to him sleepily, but remained silent.

Xie Yan glanced at him, and said in a half-joking tone: "Hey, I heard someone say yesterday that you went to the Prince's Mansion?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Shenxiu's heart skipped a beat. She didn't know why Xie Yan brought this up, and stammered, "Ah, I'm going, let's take a walk."

"Liu Jiaoqi ran away today, do you know why he didn't come to trouble you?" Xie Yan smiled, leaned over and covered his mouth with a fan: "Do you know who is the one on trial in Dali Temple?"

"Who?"

Xie Yan said with deep meaning, "Yuan Junyu."

When he said these three words, there was a kind of joy of seeing the sun again. Zhang Shenxiu was dumbfounded: "Why did you interrogate him all of a sudden?" Hear the wind?

Xie Yan grabbed Zhang Shenxiu's hand and wrote two words on his palm with the tip of a fan.

"Tong..." Zhang Shenxiu's face immediately turned blue.

Xie Yan snorted softly and leaned back on the back of the sedan chair.

"Him?!" Zhang Shenxiu was startled, her face turned from blue to white, "How is that possible! Weiqing, you...! Don't sink deeper and deeper!"

"Who asked him to check me! At this juncture, it's either him or me! Is it okay for me to weigh?" Xie Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at him sarcastically: "Don't always ask me to remind. Back off."

"Didn't Chang Xi know about this?" Zhang Shenxiu was not only talking about doing business with Japanese pirates, but also about this sinister frame-up.

"He?" Xie Yan sneered, "How can a eunuch fight with me? With his hands, even Cui Zhu from Beijing said he was sick at home, and now—" He suddenly stopped talking, but the one among them The meaning is self-evident.

Zhang Shenxiu was silent for a long time, probably out of fear, or maybe out of disbelief: "Forget it."

Xie Yan was immediately dissatisfied. Since he came to Nanjing, few people disobeyed him, but after all he still remembered some old feelings, so he could bear his temper: "Shu Zhou, we have been friends for so many years, I know you are the most kind, in school You think about your classmates here, you think about the chamber of commerce on the road, and in Nanjing...you think about an actor, but why don’t you think about yourself?"

Looking at Xie Yan's crazy appearance, Zhang Shenxiu felt cold in his heart: "Thinking about this is hurting nature and reason after all."

Xie Yan raised his eyebrows, and raised one corner of his mouth, that smile was clearly mocking him, he was in dirty water, what are you pretending to be so noble right now?

"I'm not hurting God, we're all going to lose our heads."

"I……"

"Okay, Shu Zhou," Xie Yan patted him on the shoulder, "After tonight, no one in the world will know the king. You are my best friend. From now on, I will definitely not treat you badly."

It was time for his life to be at stake, Zhang Shenxiu was dumbfounded listening to the bustling human fireworks in Jinling City outside the sedan chair, thinking of the dazzling gold and jade he had earned with his life, his whole body trembled suddenly, thinking of something terrible, he hurriedly closed the door There seemed to be a sharp hissing of thousands of swords passing through the eyes and ears.

Things have come to this point, the only thing that can be done is sailing with the current.

It took him a long time to wipe off the sweat on his brow, and his voice was so weak that he could hardly hear him: "There is one more thing I have to tell you."

Xie Yan glanced at him, then turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window, as if it was some kind of persuasion: "What?"

Zhang Shenxiu leaned weakly on the sedan chair, and after much deliberation, he still told him: "Liu Jiao saw the letter from Zhejiang."
