The first work of the imperial prison

The night was dark and silent.

There is no moon in this night, the stars are few and far between, and the faint starlight shines on the dark alley, casting a layer of sharp light on the arrow's edge. The bow string is tightened, and the long wooden barn is tightened with fingers. In a corner that no one knows, the figures of the two sides are facing each other, and the battle is imminent!

Chou Yiqing stopped outside the circle seven feet away, spun around with a strong waist, let go of the momentum, pointed his toes inward a little, changed direction in the middle, and turned to the dark place of the high wall. At the same time, he raised his right index finger and middle finger, gently He gestured backwards.

Zheng Ying knew that this meant to wait.

He is not as strong as a commander, and he is not as elegant as a commander when he stops suddenly. He has no way to get rid of the momentum in an instant, curls up his body, and rolls forward on the spot. He is a bit embarrassed, but also a bit flexible. , quickly rolled into the dark shadow by the wall.

Standing with his back in front, the person covered with a black scarf is Mu Ya, the deputy head of the mission, and standing opposite Mu Ya is Su Tu, the owner of Suji Winery.

Forty years have passed, and his legs and feet have been injured and it is inconvenient. Su Tu's back is still straight, like a javelin, and there is a sharp cold edge in his eyes.

"Chong-"

The two men collided with swords and soldiers, and quickly wrestled together.

Mu Ya's martial arts are very strong, he uses a machete, his moves are open and close, and his routes are unpredictable, if he is licked by his knife, he will bleed and be seriously injured!

Su Tu is not weak after all, in his hand is the long wooden cangwu tiger with wind, point, pick, stab, sweep, the subtleties are as sharp as a snake, and when he has the opportunity, he is like a tiger descending a mountain, but within the fan-shaped range of sweeping, he is invincible !Youdao is that one inch is long and one inch is strong, and one inch is short and one inch is dangerous. The advantages of long weapons are magnified by him to the fullest!

The two sides seem to be evenly matched, but one year is older, one is young, one has a disabled leg, and the other is strong. Long-term fighting is not good for Su Tu. As long as Muya delays for a while, he is likely to lose.

But this is his home.

Anyone who has been a soldier and has been on the battlefield has an inexplicable attachment to his own territory. They will not give up an inch of land. All the efforts to fight their lives are just to protect their country, their people, and their relatives. Behind Su Tu is the house he built with his own hands, the home he has lived in for decades!This is his wine shop, the rest of his life, and his daughter!

How could he let it?You can't lose even if you die!

The collision of willpower and physical strength, who do you think will win?Not sure!

Zheng Ying was a little anxious, almost subconsciously, kept looking at Qiu Suqing, wanting to get some instructions, because in his opinion, the commander never watched his people get hurt for no reason, no matter whether they knew each other before, the two sides fought Whether there is any reason or not, whether there is any previous hatred or not, Sutu is from Jokha and Muya is from Wara, the positions of the two sides are inherently opposite, so no one can ask others to beat up their own people!

But commanders never give meaningless orders...

Zheng Ying bit her nails, reminding herself to calm down, and finally found something different, this Muya, the attack route seemed to be a bit erratic, as if she didn't intend to kill, and there were more tests between moves.

Not only this night battle, but from the moment Muya came out of the mission and put on the black mask, his advancing route was a bit erratic, almost half of the capital was circled. They chased him for so long, but still couldn't see his identity Sense of purpose, what exactly does he want to do?

The same goes for the Suji Winery, the hidden arrows on the walls of people seem to be just passing by, accidentally fighting with Su Tu, just because the other party is overly vigilant, they are lying on the roof, don't even think about going over if they don't fight The way she looked...Mu Ya was very arrogant, she didn't want to avoid anyone, if someone wanted to hit her, she would hit her.

Could it be that his purpose is still elsewhere and has nothing to do with the Su family?

But Su Tu was really difficult to deal with, he didn't give an inch, pressed every step of the way, Mu Ya became a little angry, no longer calm, and said: "The old man is good at skills, he is a member of General An's tent?"

These words were not only mixed with anger, but also a bit of gnashing of teeth, which shows how much Wala hated the word 'General An'.

Sutu Chang Mucang hit the opponent's scimitar fiercely, the two sides bounced away due to the force, and somersaulted a few steps back, he took the opportunity to draw the bow again, and shot an arrow towards the opposite side, but when the time was limited, it was too fast to be sure, and no one was injured. The person only scratched the corner of the other party's clothes.

"Grandson's moves are sinister enough, and his mouth smells like a stink, Wala dog?"

Mu Ya rolled her eyes: "Your Mucang method is not good enough."

Su Tu grinned, showing a mouthful of white teeth: "It's hard for your grandson to recognize the Mucang method taught by my general. What, was taught by my general? Did you break your ribs, or almost took your neck?" On the head?"

The scimitar in Mu Ya's hand was sharp in an instant: "It's a small skill, but that's it!"

Su Tu sneered: "Then you beat me!"

"Your Mu Cang method, did you really learn it from General An?"

"Didn't you recognize it earlier? Call Grandpa, I'll teach you your father!"

"General An is at the border, how can I teach you!"

"Did I say that I teach it now? Have you fed your brain to the dog?"

The voices of the two were very low. You came and went and said more than one sentence, but due to the collision of swords and soldiers, some of them could be heard, and some could not be heard clearly. Love to fight again, leave quickly.

"I'm busy tonight, so I'll let you go."

"Run away if you can't beat it, and still refuse to admit it. Wala dogs are like this. How can I not be surprised at all? Okay, let your grandson run away, and you can wander around someday. I beat you so hard that your mother doesn't even know her!"

Muya's flying speed was very fast, and his figure quickly disappeared into the dark night. Su Tucai lost his strength, his figure staggered, and he used his long wooden warehouse to lean on the ground, and slowly let out a breath, panting non-stop.

Qiu Yiqing moved at this moment, and Zheng Ying quickly followed.

Qiu Yiqing didn't show up to help just now, but when he flew past Su Tu, he said in a low voice: "It's hard work. You can go to rest."

Su Tu looked at the dark night, the back that approached and moved away in an instant, the majestic, lofty, like mountains and peaks, without brushing pines and cypresses... After a long time, he wiped his face and jumped off the roof with a smile: "I'm still old ah……"

In the dark night, the hand-to-hand combat was very intense, and the visual effects were also very exciting. There were a few times when they were separated, even at the moment of life and death, but they were all fixed within a certain range. The two sides had no intention of disturbing others. Accidents.

The night is still quiet, the neighbors are still sleeping, except for someone's dog barking twice, there is no other movement, it is no different from the past.

The same goes for Su Ji Winery, the front yard is pitch black, and the daughter's boudoir in the back yard is not lit, so she is sleeping soundly.

Su Tu was a little tired, and the sound of landing was louder. He subconsciously supported the wall, adjusted his breath, and just turned around. He felt a little thirsty and wanted to go to the well to get a bowl of cold water to drink. When he turned around, he found a person standing beside the pillar.

It was his apprentice Du Kang.

Du Kang looked calm, stretched his hand forward, and handed over a bowl of warm tea: "Master moisturizes the throat."

Although he was very thirsty and really wanted to drink cold water, it was obvious that lukewarm water was more healthy at this time, and the apprentice even added tea specially, so it would not be boring, Su Tu snorted, took it and drank it.

While drinking water, he took advantage of the opportunity to glance at his apprentice.There are traces of just waking up on the face, it must have been a dishonest sleep, the chin was scratched by the corner of the pillow, but it doesn't look embarrassed, the eyes are clear, the clothes are neat, and it doesn't look in a hurry, I don't know where it is How long have you watched it.

I haven't moved or called for anyone. Maybe it's because I believe Master is powerful, and I'm worried that I will cause trouble if I come out rashly.

Brat, you're not stupid.

With his hands behind his back, Su Tu finished the bowl of warm tea slowly, and handed the empty bowl to his apprentice: "Okay, I'm fine, go back and rest."

Du Kang took the bowl and nodded quietly: "Yes."

Su Tu turned around, took two steps, and then turned around suddenly: "There is no need to talk about what happened tonight."

Du Kang still did not move, his eyes lowered slightly: "Yes."

……

Qiu Yiqing followed Mu Ya all the way, he went where the other party was going, whenever the other party stopped, he would stop whenever the other party stopped, Zheng Ying followed, and gradually understood.

"...This Muya, is she looking for something?"

Qiu Yiqing asked without answering, "What do you think?"

Isn't the biggest purpose of the Oirat mission to come to the capital this time to find someone?

In addition to King Wala, the bachelor whose son died, Wang Ting also has Uncle Nine Kings. The former wants to find his eighth prince Du Miao Miao, and the latter wants to kill Du Miao Miao so that he can take over Wang Ting. No matter who is on both sides, the first thing to do , are looking for Hachioji, will act.

The itinerary for the mission to Beijing was set a long time ago. It is impossible for the two sides to have not prepared in advance and sent different spies to come to the capital. These movements are scattered and small, so it is difficult for the guards in the capital to detect it, and it is impossible for the Jin Yiwei to check Clean, they must have their own news channels and contact passwords, just wait for their own online to be in place.

The mission is here, and the on-line is in place, but the two parties must monitor each other's embankments, restrain each other, or simply wait for the other party to move first, so that they can take advantage of themselves...

It is already very bearable to wait until now to be unable to hold back and come out to act.

Presumably Hachioji would not miss this opportunity.

The organization that Blue Bird belongs to, Lan Mei, is from the concubine of King Wala. Due to the inheritance relationship, she belongs to the Eighth Prince alone. She lost contact with the royal court as early as the civil strife. Over the years, she has been camping in Dazhao Jiji, or hiding everywhere. , in case of being caught, or quietly inquiring about outside news, in case the time comes, they can react quickly. They must know that the mission is in the capital now, and they must be ready to move.

Qiu Xunqing speculated that the three parties would definitely test each other, confirm each other, and communicate with each other, but out of caution, the three parties would not immediately hand over their cards and trust... So this is also Jin Yiwei's opportunity.

Who is the Eighth Prince hiding among the people and where is he? This time, he must be caught, and he must be caught!

Mu Ya didn't know if he really got the news about the movement tonight. He was walking around in circles or aimlessly, obstructing others' sight. He seemed not in a hurry, and moved very slowly.

Qiu Yiqing has time to spend with him, who knows how many people he can use under his command, as long as he knows people and uses them well, he can arrange many things...

He thought for a while, beckoned Zheng Ying to come closer, and ordered in a low voice: "You can't drag Yan Rouman any longer, you go over and watch in person, and don't let her have any accidents."

"Yes," Zheng Ying reminded the commander that there is still one end, "Where is Gang Leader Shi?"

Qiu Xunqing thought of Shi Zhou, who seemed straightforward and upright, but actually full of heart, his complexion didn't change: "It's only half an hour late, I can't kill him, you can find a way to send a letter, saying that I don't have time to take care of him, please let him see for himself." Do it."

Zheng Ying: ...

"Yes."

Think about it, the guild leader just sent a letter, saying that he had important information and needed to meet the commander, but he didn't say that he was in danger, and they didn't receive any agreed crisis signal, so they should... no big deal?

Anyway, there are commanders planning strategies, Zheng Ying is not worried at all, with a cat on the waist and withdrew legs, the figure disappeared into the dark night.

Qiu Xunqing continued to follow Muya, seemingly aimlessly. In the route with complicated directions, Muya didn't meet anyone and stopped a few times in the middle. It didn't look like he was looking for someone. Instead, he observed the environment more and didn't know who he was. After seeing something and getting something, after a short pause, he continued to run again.

But after every pause, the route is bound to change.

Qiu Yiqing knew that these pauses were very important, so he wrote down these positions and ordered a detailed investigation.

Afterwards, Mu Ya quietly slipped out of the city gate and got on the horse.

Just as Xuan Guang was not far away, Qiu Xunqing blew his whistle, summoned his horse, opened the city gate with a token, and quickly chased him out.

He is very cautious, keeping an appropriate distance all the time, so that he can catch up with the people in front without letting the people in front find him.Xuan Guang seemed to be used to this job, even though he was only a horse, he was very thieves, he knew when to go fast, when to slow down, and when to use the shade of trees on the hillside to cover him, one man and one horse cooperated very well.

I was lucky this time, and I found something.

Mu Ya went to a deserted courtyard first, and came out with an extra burden on her back. Suddenly, a group of men in black rushed out from the slanting stabs, and immediately grabbed them. The attack was very sudden, but Mu Ya was not a vegetarian. Immediately behind her, In the deserted courtyard, a small team also came out, and the two sides fought.

The scene in front of me is clear, but Mu Ya has long been prepared to go around the city to get rid of the follower and obtain information. Others are not vegetarians, and they can quickly adjust when they are thrown away for a while, re-focus, and find another line. , and made some ambushes in advance, only to scatter eagles when they saw the rabbit...

Qiu Xunqing looked at the burden on Muya's back, and touched the horse's neck with his big hand: "You and I are the only ones coming here, should we grab it or not?"

Xuan Guang didn't yell, but just hit him with his big head, very powerful, very fierce, under the faint starlight, he could see clearly the rolling eyes of it, as if saying, what the hell! !What are you still doing! !

Qiu Suiqing: ...

When the fight between the two sides was almost over, and it looked like both sides were hurting, he patted the horse's buttocks, let the horse run to the other side first, took out the square handkerchief from his sleeve, covered his face, and slowly put it on.

The next step is a huge momentum, you come and I fight.

Chou Yiqing's skills are much stronger than Su Tu's. When you stir the already anxious battle situation, it's like water splashing into the oil pan, crackling, and you're the one who's scalded to death!

His figure is like a dragon, like a swimming snake, his strong waist can carry a thousand pounds of strength, his long legs can be swept across to carry the wind and thunder, his sword edge reflects the cold light of the dawn star, and his eyes are full of sharp murderous aura——

In front of him, no one can stop him!

The Wala people on both sides were stunned, and the eyes of the two sides looked at each other more and more suspicious. Who is this person, is it one of yours, and was it on purpose?It's so powerful that it looks like it's not a small person, it must be a big fish, come and go, let me keep an eye on it, it's best to catch the alive!

Qiu Xunqing didn't have any fear of his life, so the attack was even more ruthless. There were swords, lights and swords on the scene, and blood spattered.

"Huh? There's a horse here, this horse... no, grab it!"

How could Xuanguang be caught by this group of stupid people, snorted, and ran away, running in circles, and yelling at his master——

What are you dawdling about?Hurry up!If you can't even snatch this little thing, how can you have the face to go back to see the young master? You're so embarrassed!

……

This night was full of excitement, the aftermath still persisted until the second day, Ye Baiting didn't even know it.

After he woke up, he went to the bamboo branch building.

Because the two jars of wine that the deceased Yu Linglong treasured were sent back by Shen Jiang. After smelling them, he found the smell somewhat familiar. He remembered seeing something similar in his sister's building.

It's not exactly the same taste, but a very similar feeling, which is hard to describe in words.

I came here based on my impressions, and sure enough, I found the jar of wine all at once, smelled it, tasted it, the taste was different, but it felt really similar.

The two altars of wine preserved by the deceased Yu Linglong are light in fragrance and slightly cold, with a sense of bitterness of plum blossoms in winter, reminding you of the white snow on plum petals, a little lonely, a little cold, but warm wine is like a branch The plum blossom falls in the snow, and there is an indescribable sense of belonging. You know its loneliness, its cold fragrance, and also understand its persistence and pride. It is unique, but it is not unwilling to enter the world. It just wants to have a understand it partner.

My sister's wine is very warm, slightly chilly in the mouth, and a bit pungent and spicy. After I sip it, I feel that the spicy is just superficial, as if a gentle hand was placed on the forehead and rubbed gently, like a summer breeze blowing Over the peony, the sun is shining brightly, making you feel warm from the bottom of your heart and want to hug.

This is the taste of my sister, this is my sister.

Ye Baiting didn't know Yu Linglong before, and he didn't know what kind of person she was, but he knew his sister. The taste of this wine fit her temperament very well. Based on this speculation, are the two jars of wine in Yu Linglong very similar to her?

He asked Ye Baishao: "Sister, where did you buy this jug of wine?"

"Don't finish drinking it for me. This is the only thing left of the custom-made wine four years ago!" Ye Baishao put away the wine jar preciously. not easy."

Ye Baiting: "Su Ji Winery, Su Jiujiu?"

"You know her too?" Ye Baishao smiled, "Don't look at her young age, she learned to make wine since she was a child, and became famous when she was 13 years old. She has a pair of magical hands, the same thing, the same Fangzi, once brewed by her, the wine that comes out is different, maybe when there are many people drinking together, the difference is not so obvious, but if you drink it alone, or have a warm chat with your confidant, you will taste the difference."

Ye Baiting understands this feeling, he has only been in contact with it for two days, and he has a different perception of the word wine, let alone someone who can drink?You will be addicted to this feeling, addicted to this taste...

That's why the Sujia Winery is so confident. They rely on their craftsmanship to do business, and they make friends. There is no need to play those competitive tricks.

"My sister often buys wine from her family?"

"The wine in her house is good, I open the door to do business, why not?"

"Then sister must have met Su Jiujiu? What kind of person do you think she is?"

"It's hard to say," Ye Baishao talked to his younger brother while choosing the ingredients on the table, "The little girl looks deserted, and she doesn't know much about the world, but I always feel that she doesn't understand, but just doesn't want to Eager to manage, her enthusiasm seems to be put in the wine, you will know what kind of person she is after drinking her wine..."

"Everyone outside knows that the Su Family Winery has been passed down from generation to generation. It is said that her deceased grandfather made the best wine. , no one in the world brews stronger and hotter wine than him, and knows how to be intoxicating best; the most ordinary wine is made by her junior brother Du Kang. It is memorable; but the most special thing that can make wine is Su wine."

"Her wine may be very traditional, everyone has tasted it, it may be very new, no one has ever drunk it, after her hands, the most new wine, with a variety of flower names, but almost everyone, understand or I don't understand, as long as I drink her wine, I want to try again."

Ye Baiting: "How is the relationship between the Su family?"

Ye Baishao just laughed: "The old one is stubborn, the young one doesn't like to talk, and the youngest apprentice will be bullied by everyone. The left side can't be provoked, and the right side can't be coaxed. Do you think it's okay? This person eats and lives. When the teeth are biting the tongue, when the anger comes up, how can you be gentle, you were angry with me before, and it was not like when you beat you, but did we break up?"

Ye Baiting shook his head: "No."

"So, a family is a family. They are connected by flesh and blood, and they are bound together in the heart. Even quarrels can't be resolved." Ye Baishao was smart, and guessed that these irreconcilable issues might be related to the case of Fusi in Beizhen, but they were not It is inconvenient for her to ask, so she said, "Sake is popular with people, and money is touching people's hearts. It seems that there are causes and effects, and the world is customary, but there are also those special people who have different temperaments. Brother, you should pay more attention to what others say." Go over your head."

Ye Baiting nodded and smiled: "I know, sister."

Ye Baishao finally chose the ingredients: "Your brother-in-law sent someone to deliver Jinhua ham yesterday. It's very good. Shall I cook it for you?"

"No," the case is ahead and he doesn't have much time. Just at this moment, it is estimated that Shen Jiangxin's news has returned to Beizhen Fusi. He stood up, "I'm busy these days, I'll go back first, my sister Take care of yourself and don't get tired."

Ye Baishao patted the dust on his hands: "Okay, then I'll ask someone to bring you a supper at night, and you can use it with the commander!"

"Night? Have you seen the Commander today?"

"When it was just dawn in the morning, I opened the door, and he happened to pass by, saying that you have worked hard for the past two days, and you will pay for it, please let me cook two dishes for delivery tonight..."

Ye Baishao winked at Ye Baiting: "I think he looks like your brother-in-law, he can't get used to the house when he's busy, you have to think...you have to hurry up, you can't see each other, how do you cultivate your relationship? "

Ye Baiting: ...

In fact, there is no need to cultivate it anymore, really, sister, you just don’t know.

When he thinks that he is hiding it so strictly now, and that he will be punished by his sister slapping him on the back of the head, he has a headache.

"Then what, I'm leaving first, I'm so busy, I'm so busy!"

"Go, go, anyway, my younger brother is capable - I really can't stand it anymore, I need help, remember to come back and find my sister!"

Ye Baiting: ...

Hurriedly returning to Beizhen Fusi, sure enough, there was a bunch of files and notes before the case, all of which were sent by Shen Jiang.

Based on the amount seen this morning, this person probably didn't sleep all night.

Before sitting back in the case again, he continued to bow his head to sort out, arrange them in categories, and when he saw some special things, he took a pen to copy them aside, ticked off the relationship between the characters, and made special marks.

The news files on the case decreased little by little, and every time it was about to be sorted out, a new batch would come over, and it was impossible to finish.

I don't know how long it has passed, the sky darkened, and it was another night.

Both Shen Jiang and Qiu Yiqing are back.

Seeing that Shen Jiang's eyes were almost turning red, Ye Baiting said, "Why don't you go back and rest?"

Shen Jiang covered her mouth and yawned: "Go after finishing the business, otherwise I won't be able to get up tomorrow morning, or I will disturb the young master. I'd better go over the case tonight."

Hatred and suspicion: "Sort out the direction, and the plan for tomorrow will be more direct and effective."

Ye Baiting took a look at the table and bed of rice paper, and indeed he had gained something...

"Then shall we begin?"
