Dafeng's Night Squad

Chapter 124



124 The worry in your heart (1)

Emperor Yuan jing’s personal eunuch, dragging a horsetail whisk in his hand, came over to take the book and handed it to Emperor Yuan jing respectfully.

Emperor Yuan jing put the book aside, took the book and read it carefully.

As he read, his eyebrows raised, and anger was brewing in his eyes.

“All this nonsense, the people from the Ministry of Justice and the government are becoming more and more useless.” Emperor Yuan jing reproached.

He glanced at eunuch Liu, causing the latter to shiver in fear.

Emperor Yuan jing threw the booklet aside. His tone was emotionless, but it sounded even more horrifying. what about the night watchman at the Yamen? ”

Eunuch Liu lowered his head and said in a soft voice, “”Your Majesty, he’s ... He’s behind us ...”

Emperor Yuan jing raised his eyebrows, picked up the book again, and continued to read.

As he read, his tightly furrowed brows unconsciously relaxed, and the impatience between his brows slowly disappeared. He was actually engrossed in reading.

Emperor Yuan jing changed from lying on his side to sitting upright.

His expression became more and more serious, and his gaze became sharper and sharper.

The two eunuchs unconsciously slowed down their breathing. They were afraid of disturbing the Emperor and also afraid of getting into trouble.

In the end, when Emperor yuanjing put down the book, the immortal demeanor of 20 years of cultivation was gone, and only the majesty and fierceness of the Emperor of the human world remained.

Eunuch Liu’s forehead was already covered in cold sweat.

He had thought that His Majesty would be satisfied, but it seemed that it had the opposite effect?

“Pass on my order!”

Emperor Yuan jing’s face was as cold as ice and his tone was serious. “The county Magistrate of Taikang County has failed in his duty, and hundreds of people have been killed or injured around the great Yellow Mountain. He has been dismissed and sent to prison.

“Bailiff Lu Qing will be promoted to the Chief of Detectives of the six Fan School.”

He didn’t mention Xu Qi ‘an, because Xu Qi’ an himself was a sinner. His performance bonus had to be placed last, and the reward was his life.

“This servant obeys!” Eunuch Liu felt relieved and retreated.

After leaving the Jingxin Palace, he took the young eunuch back to his residence without saying a word and let out a long breath.

Although he didn’t know that the emperor’s expression became even uglier after reading the latter part, according to the emperor’s oral order, the content of the latter part should have satisfied him. The emperor’s mood was gloomy about other things.

In Jingxin Hall, Emperor Yuan jing stood by the window and was silent for a long time.

“Inform the others to remove the restrictions on the inner and outer cities.”

.......

Xu Qi ‘an dragged his exhausted body back to the manor. Dinner had already been over.

The front hall of the Xu mansion was brightly lit, and Xu Pingzhi and Xu niannian were waiting for him to return.

“Nian ‘er, get the kitchen to heat up the food and bring it up.” Xu Pingzhi said.

With red lips and white teeth, the handsome Xu Xinyi left the front hall, leaving only the uncle and nephew.

The candlelight flickered slightly. Second uncle Xu’s rough square face was cold and serious.

Not long after, Xu niannian came back. The female chefs came over with the vegetables they had picked. They had been heating them in the pot, waiting for Xu Qi ‘an to come back.

Xu Qi ‘an was dazed for a moment when she saw her boorish second uncle and handsome younger brother.

He was all alone in this world. He had no cell phone, no computer, no keyboard man, and no Japan love education films.

Every day, they lived a life of lighting candles or oil lamps, and when they went to the toilet, they had to curse and pull the hem of their clothes up high.

Sometimes, in her dreams, she would dream that she had returned to her previous life and woke up smiling. Then, she would stare at the roof where beams and logs intersected in a daze.

“I suddenly feel like drinking.” Xu Qi ‘an cursed in a low voice and took the wine pot from the cook.

When the female chefs had finished setting up the dishes, Xu Pingzhi waved his hand, signaling for them to leave.

Xu Qi ‘an gulped down the wine, not because she missed her old life, but because she suddenly remembered a saying:Where my heart is at peace is my hometown.

In this world, there would always be someone waiting for you to come home at night, heating up your food in the kitchen.

No matter how tired, helpless, and lonely you are outside, you will understand that you are not alone when you return here.

After drinking half a pot of wine, Xu Qi ‘an let out a long breath.”Sang Bo was blown up. His Majesty ordered me to investigate the case thoroughly to atone for my crimes.”

I know, ” Xu Pingzhi nodded slowly. but this is not something you can interfere in.

“I know. I’m only responsible for the investigation, not the pursuit.” I have to try, ” Xu Qi ‘an said helplessly. if I don’t try, I can only run.

He had never thought of paying for the Imperial power. If he couldn’t find the case, he would definitely run away.

this shouldn’t affect you. After all, I didn’t commit any Major Crimes. Xu Qi ‘an said.

The reason he had cursed was that he had finally found a home with a sense of belonging, and he might have to say goodbye to it completely in the near future.

Xu Qi ‘an’s crime was killing his superior. Although it was a capital crime, it was still far from being punished by his family.

In Da Feng, sitting on the throne was a very serious crime, and ordinary people didn’t even have the right to sit on the throne.

To achieve the crime of ” implicating the X race “, the following conditions had to be met:First, rebellion. Two, cause great losses to the country. Third, it would cause great losses to the royal family. Four, stand on the wrong side!

Xu Pingzhi belonged to the second category. The loss of tax silver would cause a great loss to the National Treasury. But this was not normal.

Those who could achieve these four achievements were usually the Lords of the Imperial court. That’s why Zhu Zigui’s entire family would be executed so easily.

Therefore,’sitting together’ was also jokingly called the privilege of the big shots.

People like Xu Qi ‘an were at most sentenced to death. If he escaped, he would be a fugitive, and his uncle and aunt would not be implicated.

...

Second uncle Xu nodded his head in satisfaction. it’s good that you can understand. You have been stubborn since you were young.

That was the old me, the current me, I have changed very ... “I’m not stupid,” Xu Qi ‘an shook his head.

Xu Erlang also heaved a sigh of relief. if you really can’t do it, ” he said, ” you can go to Yunzhou.

Yunzhou?

Xu Qi ‘an was stunned.

He knew about Yunzhou. It was a place plagued by bandits, and was also known as the bandit state. Number two was also in Yunzhou.

Xu Erlang said, ” you’re a Bandit. The Imperial court’s influence is the worst. Even if you’re wanted, you’ll be safe there.

If he was more ruthless and became a Bandit, he could not only sharpen his martial arts, but also control power. Many wanted criminals of the Imperial court and outlaws of the martial world like to gather in Yunzhou.”

That made sense. Compared to other regions, it was safer to hide in Yunzhou. The more chaotic a place was, the safer it was ... Wait a minute!

Xu Qi ‘an had an idea.

If I were Centurion Zhou, where would I run to?

...

Colluding with the demons, blowing up the Mulberry Lake, and perfectly completing the felonies of “exterminating the entire clan” and “implicating the three clans.”

It was not safe to hide anywhere, because the Imperial court would not let him off.

Then where should he hide?

He had two choices. He could either leave Da Feng or hide in Yunzhou!

Yunzhou.

Xu Qi ‘an was excited. Just as he was about to Pat his younger brother’s shoulder, he heard his second Uncle Slam the table angrily.”You’re not allowed to go to Yunzhou.”

The two brothers were shocked.

“Why?” Xu Qi ‘an was surprised by his second uncle’s reaction.

“What are you going to Yunzhou for? Fallen grass to become a Bandit?” Second uncle Xu said angrily, ” the Imperial court exterminates the bandits every year. What if they send someone to Yunzhou to exterminate the bandits in the future? what should we do? ” Have you forgotten the agreement you made that day?”

What promise ... Oh, fighting among the same family ... Xu Qi ‘an and Xu niannian lowered their heads in shame.

He had really forgotten.

She didn’t expect her second uncle to still remember. It seemed like he really took it to heart.

“I know, I know. I won’t go to Yunzhou. I’ll go to the Western Region.” Xu Qi ‘an said.

The HU concubines of the Western regions were beautiful and warm!

After the meal, Xu Qi ‘an saw Xu lingyue coming in with a bowl of hot milk. She pursed her red lips and looked at her gently.

“Big brother, drink a bowl of milk to replenish your energy.”

“Lingyue bought it herself. It’s fresh milk from this afternoon.” Second uncle Xu saw that the relationship between his son and his nephew was getting closer and he smiled sincerely. He added, ”

“Ling Ying drank two big bowls and gave her sister a beating.”

Xu Qi ‘an took the milk, smelled it, and almost vomited ... The milk was fishy and blushed.

Fresh milk in this era was like this. There were no messy additives, the original taste, and at most, it was heated to disinfect.

But it wasn’t really that good.

However, although it tasted bad, it was indeed something that only nobles could drink daily, although the taste was not very popular.

However, it was indeed good for the body. For noble children, milk was a must-drink daily.

‘Can I try to improve the milk?’ Then, he would rely on his secret recipe to earn big money ... ‘Alright, I don’t know how to get rid of this smell at all. The teachers in school didn’t teach me ...’ Xu Qi ‘an sighed. Under his sister’s eager gaze, he swallowed his saliva.

Deep feelings, huh.

Xu Qi ‘an touched the bowl that was still warm and suddenly remembered something.

When he was in middle school, his parents had ordered milk for him. It was the kind that was kept in glass bottles, and it was still warm when it was delivered to his door every morning.

Xu Qi ‘an didn’t drink it himself, but gave it to her goddess. He had thought that this was love.

It was only later that he realized he was actually a bootlicker.

....

At some point, a mournful rain began to fall outside, soaking the dead branches and the stone slabs in the courtyard.

Xu Qi ‘an, who had eaten and drunk to his heart’s content, returned to his small courtyard with an oil-paper umbrella.

He lit an oil lamp and opened the window. The sky was completely dark, and a candle’s light stubbornly shone through, accompanied by the sound of the rain.

The world was quiet, so quiet that one could calm down and think about many things.

A cup of wine in the spring breeze, ten years worth of lanterns in the pugilistic world!

When the poet, Huang Tingjian, wrote this poem, he probably had the same feelings as him. He was also thinking about some people.

Perhaps, it was also such a quiet and bitter night.

After a long time, Xu Qi ‘an turned on the light twice before he managed to break free from his frustration.

One couldn’t always be immersed in one’s own world. There were still many things to do.

Xu Qi ‘an sat at the table, took out a small Jade Mirror, and entered the information:”Ha, something happened in the capital again.”

[ PS: this chapter is from yesterday. I had something to do during the day yesterday, so I still owe everyone a chapter. I stubbornly stayed up all night until now, and I’ve finally finished writing it. ] He went to sleep.
