Yan Ruyu shook her head: "Not sure yet, because it is possible that it was planned long ago, and..."
When she said this, Yan Ruyu frowned.
Xia Fengxiang smiled and said, "What a coincidence? Or is Lian Qiao just too unlucky?"
Yan Ruyu looked at Xia Fengxiang: "If this is true, he is really unlucky, because the people in that store said that Lian Qiao lost all his money and had no money, so he came out. But I think this is all too coincidental."
Xia Fengxiang said: "Of the young masters who came to the capital recently, some left directly after fighting with you, and the others either left because they knew they had no chance of winning a fight with you, or they wanted to join the court."
"Lian Qiao wanted to join the Huanglong Guards these days, but every member of my Huanglong Guards has to go through a lot of selection and strict investigation before they can join. So he wanted to join the Chixia Army, but the Chixia Army, as an army to guard the queen and the harem, only recruits women."
"So he wanted to join the Imperial Guards. Do you mean that he might have been recruited by Zhao Xiaojia?"
Yan Ruyu frowned, but still nodded: "Tianzhige rarely participates in the affairs of the court. Even the capital rarely comes here, for fear of getting involved in the affairs of the court and being unable to extricate themselves. However, when I met his sister Lian Wei before, Lian Qiao wanted to join the court. Lian Wei mentioned to me that Lian Qiao's sword cannot just wander around the world, but also needs to enter the court. It has been thought about for a long time, but Lian Qiao is a bit stupid, so it is possible that he was set up without knowing anything and became Zhao Xiaojia's subordinate."
Xia Fengxiang smiled and said, "You didn't know anything and were set up to work for Zhao Xiaojia?"
Yan Ruyu was stunned, and immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing.
But before he was about to correct her, Xia Fengxiang smiled and said, "When these people came to Beijing, Aunt Yan told me about everyone's strength and personality. As for Lian Qiao, Aunt Yan told me that he was a little bastard and very stupid. Let's check it carefully. If Lian Qiao really joined Zhao Xiaojia, the martial arts sect Tianzhige will also become suspicious. At this time, I don't want any accidents to happen."
Yan Ruyu clasped her fists and said, "Mother has gone to Lian Qiao's place, and mother also wants to see the young lady's elongated gun."
Xia Fengxiang was stunned for a moment: "Stretch it?"
Yan Ruyu nodded: "I have seen it. It was because of the young lady's force that the gun was stretched by two inches."
Xia Fengxiang frowned and thought for a while. Although she didn't know much about martial arts, she heard people say that what Su Changan did at that time was that he pulled the gun and directly pulled the man and the earth wall over.
But the spear was drawn longer.
Doesn’t it mean that the power has reached a terrifying level!
Xia Fengxiang immediately asked: "What is her current strength? Hasn't she only been training for more than a month?"
Yan Ruyu thought for a moment and was about to speak, but then closed her mouth again, frowning.
Xia Fengxiang looked at Yan Ruyu like this and said helplessly, "She is so stupid. She is an eighth-rank master, but she can't even tell this. But it doesn't matter. I will ask Aunt Yan directly later."
Yan Ruyu was embarrassed because she really didn't know how to describe Su Changan's strength.
Because in her opinion, Su Changan was a little strange. If we only talk about strength, the strength Su Changan showed today is enough to rival a seventh-grade master, but Su Changan obviously has not used his full strength this time.
However, Su Changan's skills, including sword-wielding skills, were just those of an ordinary entry-level martial artist, not even top-notch.
She also once asked her mother if it would be better if Su Changan could practice boxing.
Her mother said there was no difference, and that she would try to make her understand. If she couldn't, it would make no difference what she practiced.
Xia Fengxiang looked at Yan Ruyu's distressed expression and shook his head helplessly: "Are you young masters all not smart enough? You are stupid, Lian Qiao is a stupid unlucky guy, but that's not the case. Ye Wu is quite smart. After fighting with you, the Taifu's people came to find him overnight, but he ran out of the capital overnight even if his arm was broken. Hey. You can beat him, but why can't you be smarter than him?"
Yan Ruyu was speechless.
Xia Fengxiang waved his hand and said, "Forget it. Anyway, the sooner the better. We need to find out quickly. We can't afford to drag on this matter. Besides, how will Maomao's family be arranged?"
Yan Ruyu immediately said, "We have secretly sent someone to protect them tonight, and we have asked the people in Shen Ce Mansion to contact the brothers and sisters along the way from Luoan to Dunhuang to take care of them. They will not let anyone think of catching them to threaten Maomao, and then threaten the young lady."
Xia Fengxiang patted Yan Ruyu on the shoulder and said, "That's right. You're quite smart."
After saying that, he turned around and planned to go back to the imperial study, but after taking two steps, Xia Fengxiang turned back to look at Yan Ruyu: "When passing by Huajie, did Su Changan do anything?"
Yan Ruyu immediately clasped her fists and said, "No, I just took a look."
Xia Fengxiang smiled slightly.
However, Yan Ruyu thought for a moment and said, "But the lady seems to be quite interested in going there after dressing up as a man."
Xia Fengxiang looked at Yan Ruyu: "Tell me in detail."
……
There are many prisons in Luoan City. The Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple, Jingzhao Prefecture, Imperial City, as well as the Imperial Guards, Chixia Army, and Huanglong Guards all have their own prisons.
These are also the locations of the prison doors known to the entire city of Luoan.
but
There are also many things that we don’t know.
Lian Qiao is currently imprisoned in a dark cell where no one knows about it.
In the dim cell, Lian Qiao used the dim candlelight to look at the rat gnawing on the tattered mat, then looked towards the source of the screams and the words "We are from the Cavalry Battalion".
Lian Qiao sighed.
He felt as if he shouldn't have come to the capital.
Because nothing good has happened since I came to Beijing.
First, he had a conflict with the son of an official family as soon as he arrived in Beijing. In order to avoid trouble, he apologized. As a result, the other party was unreasonable, so Lian Qiao had no choice but to teach him a lesson.
As a result, he was immediately arrested by the government.
Thanks to his friends in the underworld and his connections with the government, he was finally released without any harm.
Then go fight with Ye Wu. Not winning is no big deal.
Because he couldn't win in the first place, and the person he mainly wanted to fight was Yan Ruyu, but he couldn't find Yan Ruyu. But it didn't matter, because he thought he would be able to meet her sooner or later after joining the court.
Later, when he heard that Ye Wu and Yan Ruyu were going to fight, he thought that he must catch up so that he might be able to make it, but he overslept, and when he arrived, everyone had already left.
Forsythia is depressed.
I had no choice but to go back to the restaurant, thinking about joining the court first.
But he thought that with his abilities, being an ordinary soldier would be a waste of his talent, so he wanted to join the Huanglong Guard, but in the end they didn't want him.
When it comes to the Chixia Army, they only want women.
When the forbidden army.
Lian Qiao is not stupid. As soon as he entered the capital, he heard that there were high-ranking officials in the Imperial Guards fighting for power. Remembering his sister Lian Wei's advice, he would never get involved in this matter, so he simply did not consider the Imperial Guards.
Then he wandered around the capital, because his friend in the underworld suggested that he try to use his connections to get him a job in the Dali Temple.
Lian Qiao naturally agreed.
But with nothing to do, Lian Qiao thought that he had never been to a brothel in his life, so he decided to go and take a look tonight.
结果
It’s not that he is too lustful, but that the sisters in the brothel are too charming. He was dazzled as soon as he entered.
I didn't even notice when my wallet was gone.
No money
Naturally he was driven out.
Then, thinking of getting his purse back, he asked about the man's whereabouts and wanted to chase him, but then he saw what happened tonight and ended up being locked up for no apparent reason.
Lian Qiao sat on the ground, picked up a grass root, and poked the mouse on the ground. The mouse immediately bared its teeth at him.
Lian Qiao held the grass root between two fingers and flicked it gently, and the mouse would surely die.
But after thinking about it, I decided to give up.
I'm so unlucky since I entered the capital. If I commit murder again, I might be even more unlucky.
Bang!
"Great Commander!"
But at this moment, the cell door suddenly opened.
When Lian Qiao heard the door open, she also heard everyone's respectful voices.
Stunned, he looked towards the entrance.
Then, Lian Qiao saw the woman he had met once when he was a child and had never forgotten.
The woman who, after getting drunk, laughed wildly and chopped down their Tianzhi Pavilion and Wangtian Tower with a knife.
Lian Qiao immediately clasped his fists and said respectfully: "Lian Qiao from Tianzhi Pavilion, I pay my respects to Senior Yan."
When Yan Yunxiao walked over, a person from the Shen Ce Palace had already carried a chair and put it in place.
So Yan Yunxiao sat directly on the chair, leaning back and crossing his legs.
He didn't speak to Lian Qiao immediately, but just took the spear handed to him by another person from the Shen Ce Palace.
Yan Yunxiao picked up the spear and took a look, then said with a smile: "It's really a little more than two inches. Sure enough, that technique is suitable for her."
Look, Yan Yunxiao threw the spear to the ground, and then looked at Lian Qiao: "Get up."
Lian Qiao straightened up obediently and looked at Yan Yunxiao. The wild laughter and the knife in his childhood had brought him a lot of fear, so he was a little scared when looking at Yan Yunxiao.
Yan Yunxiao said, "Did you know that your friend Gu Peixing is Taifu's man?"
Lian Qiao was stunned for a moment.
Yan Yunxiao continued, "The conflict between him and the son of Marquis Lecheng right after he entered the city was deliberately arranged by Yang Guofu, the son of the Grand Tutor. Do you know that?"
Lian Qiao looked at Yan Yunxiao with his mouth slightly opened, a little surprised.
Yan Yunxiao smiled and continued, "Gu Peixing's rescue of you was also arranged by Yang Guofu. Well, you have been plotted against by them since you came to Beijing. Gu Peixing told you that he would help you find a way to enter the Dali Temple, which was also a plot against you. In a few days, he might tell you to go to the Imperial Guards for two days to go through the motions, and then let you join the Dali Temple naturally, but in fact, he wants you to be tied to the ship of the Grand Tutor."
Lian Qiao was a little stunned and looked at Yan Yunxiao in astonishment.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that before he left, his junior sister told him, "Brother, don't be stupid when you go to the capital, otherwise you won't know how you died. If you are stupid and offend the big shots of the court, then die outside and don't implicate us."
But while thinking this, he looked at Yan Yunxiao and asked, "Senior Yan, was I also being plotted against when I went to the Flower Street tonight?"
Yan Yunxiao frowned slightly, then looked at Lian Qiao with a teasing expression, "I'm quite curious, have you never seen a woman? Although the number of female disciples in your Tianzhi Pavilion is not as many as in Anlefang, they are still full of beauties. Your sister is even on the Rouge List. How did you get bewitched by those women after entering the brothel? Are those women too good? You, a seventh-rank swordsman, didn't even notice that a petty thief had stolen your purse."
Lian Qiao pursed her lips.
Yan Yunxiao, on the other hand, still looked at Lian Qiao with a playful look on his face: "Come on, tell me, are those little fairies too charming, or too good at dealing with things, that made you, a little bastard, lose your mind."
Lian Qiao was a little embarrassed. After thinking for a while, he clasped his fists and said to Yan Yunxiao: "Senior Yan, why don't you think of this as me being plotted against."
Yan Yunxiao laughed when he heard this, and then said, "That's good. It's better to have a reputation of being stupid than to be obsessed with sex in a brothel. I found the purse, but I have a few questions, and you answer them."
Lian Qiao looked at the purse Yan Yunxiao took out and said to him, "Excuse me, Senior."
Yan Yunxiao asked directly: "Why did you come to the capital?"
Lian Qiao immediately said, "I want to join the imperial court, preferably the Huanglong Guard, and then practice swordsmanship."
