Chapter 203 Where Did This Swordsman Come From?
Late at night!
Liu Mansion!
Brightly lit!
When the servants of Liu Mansion shouted that there was an assassin, a group of Jinyiwei rushed into Liu Mansion as if they had fallen from the sky. The yamen soldiers outside the mansion were in chaos for a moment, then they all calmed down and continued to guard outside Liu Mansion. Although they were curious about what happened in the inner house of Liu Mansion, no one dared to stretch their heads to inquire.
Jinyiwei investigated the case, and idle people retreated.
Everyone knew the rules.
From top to bottom, hundreds of people in Liu Mansion, there was no time to dress neatly, and they gathered together in the shortest time. In the hot summer, everyone was shivering and looking at the wolf-like Jinyiwei with fear.
Where did the assassin come from?
Why were the Jinyiwei here?
Liu Mansion really had nothing valuable except money. Why did the assassin target Liu Mansion? Why did the Jinyiwei come so promptly?
There must be something fishy!
Although the Liu family guessed a little bit of the truth, no one dared to question the Jinyiwei. Everyone was afraid of death!
The Liu family is now a fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others.
"What crime should the Liu family be charged for harboring a wanted criminal?" The Jinyiwei roared angrily, full of oppression and a strong murderous aura, which made people shudder.
"A wanted criminal?" Liu Daowen's wife softened in an instant, but fortunately she was supported by the maid in time, "It is impossible for our Liu family to harbor a wanted criminal. Please investigate clearly."
"What are you investigating? The person was found in your house, Madam Liu, do you still want to deny it?"
"It's unfair! This really has nothing to do with the Liu family. It must be that the wanted criminal of the court was desperate and accidentally broke into the house. This sir, our family of old, weak, women and children does not even have a rank of warrior. The wanted criminal of the court secretly hid in the house, and we really can't find it in time! Please give us a chance."
As soon as Madam Liu finished speaking, the housekeeper of the Liu Mansion hurried forward, ready to take money to clear the way. Although I don't understand the specific purpose of the Jinyiwei, it is definitely not a good thing for the Jinyiwei to come to the door. At the least, the family will be confiscated and exiled, and at the worst, the three clans will be beheaded. No matter which consequence, the Liu family cannot afford it.
The Liu family has nothing else but a lot of money. Liu Daowen has been with Jiang Tu for these years. It is estimated that there are not millions of embezzlements, but there must be millions.
As for how much Jiang Tu embezzled, it must be an astronomical figure, and I dare not think too much. Maybe it is more than the old emperor's treasury. If the old emperor knew the truth, I am afraid he would dream of killing Jiang Tu's nine clans.
However, this is just a guess. Even if someone said in front of the old emperor how much money Jiang Tu embezzled, the old emperor would not believe it. Because someone had done it before, and more than once. Every time, the old emperor scolded him and scolded the court officials for slandering Jiang Tu.
Jiang Tu must have embezzled, but if he said that Jiang Tu embezzled millions of taels, the old emperor would not believe it.
He has been an emperor for more than 40 years, and he is confident that he will not make mistakes in judging people. Jiang Tu is just a villain. Even if he dares to embezzle, he dare not embezzle on a large scale. The court officials are just slandering.
The old emperor's arrogance can be seen from this.
If Jiang Tu's house is not confiscated, the old emperor will never believe that the person he likes is so bold. However, who in this world, this court, dares to confiscate Jiang Tu's house?
This has become a dead cycle.
The court officials can only curse the old emperor in their hearts for being confused and stupid, and the people are living in misery under the rule of a tyrant.
At present, in Liu's mansion, Chen Guanlou is lying on the roof to watch the excitement.
Tsk tsk, the tyranny of the Jinyiwei is really eye-opening.
Xiao Jincheng, the leader of the team, has not spoken all the time. He sat on the chair and watched everything on the field with cold eyes, watching how his men threatened Liu's mansion, how Liu's mansion cried out for injustice...
He turned his head suddenly and glanced in the direction of the roof on the left.
Chen Guanlou was shocked and quickly restrained his breath. Has he been discovered? The dog's nose is really sharp!
Xiao Jincheng frowned slightly. He felt a faint breath peeping at him. As soon as he turned his head, the breath disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared.
Illusion?
Haha!
With his current cultivation, there is no possibility of illusion.
The only possibility is...
Without any hesitation, he suddenly jumped up and ran straight to the roof on the left.
Chen Guanlou was shocked. He was still discovered.
The strength of a fifth-grade warrior is so terrifying.
He didn't dare to hesitate at all and turned around and ran away.
"Where to escape?" Xiao Jincheng saw the peeper show up and grinned. His intuition was right. There was indeed a person hiding. What kind of skills did the other party practice to hide his breath and strength so perfectly. He didn't even think about the hidden vein.
Chen Guanlou ignored Xiao Jincheng behind him and ran directly outside the Liu Mansion. In addition to Xiao Jincheng, other Jinyiwei also caught up.
"Stop right there!" Xiao Jincheng drew his sword and charged directly at the figure in front of him, his sword aura crisscrossing and his killing intent rising.
Chen Guanlou turned around and drew his sword to block. If you don't show your strength to the other party, the other party will not know what is good for him.
The sword was drawn, there were no fancy moves, only wanton killing!
When the swords met, both sides looked at each other deeply, and they all had the same idea: the other party was so strong!
"Looking for death!" Xiao Jincheng was furious, "You dare to sneak around under the eyes of the Jinyiwei, do you really think the Jinyiwei are vegetarians? You'd better surrender, and I will keep your body intact."
"Haha!" Chen Guanlou sneered.
Xiao Jincheng judged from his voice that the other party was about forty years old. At this age, his strength was no less than that of the fifth rank. Who was this figure? He knew all the warriors above the fifth rank in the capital, but none of them matched the tightly wrapped thief in front of him.
"What are your origins? Are you a dragon crossing the river? You dare to commit a crime in the territory of the capital, you are looking for death!"
"Just because you want to kill me, you arrogant kid!" As soon as the voice fell, Chen Guanlou slashed with a knife, with murderous intent. The third chapter of "The Record of Ascension", the unity of heaven and man, every blade of grass, every tree, every flying flower and falling leaf, are all his knives.
Knife intention!
He used a knife, but also a mind. The wind is a knife, the man is a knife, the night sky is a knife, and the heaven and earth are all knives.
Xiao Jincheng suddenly felt that countless knives were slashing at him from all directions. He was terrified and hurriedly dodged.
Chen Guanlou took the opportunity to disappear in the night sky, walking very fast.
When Xiao Jincheng came to his senses, he found that the target was gone.
At this moment, the other Jinyiwei also caught up.
"My lord?"
"Is my lord okay?"
"Where is the thief?"
"I will give the order right away, block the whole city and search it."
"No need!" Xiao Jincheng raised his hand to stop his men. At this moment, he felt scared and angry, full of anger, but not directed at the thief, but angry at his own performance just now, he actually felt scared!
Fortunately, no one saw it, so he didn't lose face.
What a strong sword intention!
The thief's cultivation is comparable to his, but his sword skills are far more profound than his.
Where did this swordsman who suddenly appeared come from? Why did he appear in Liu's mansion? He was very sure that there was no such person in the capital. Is he really a dragon crossing the river?
"Let's go back to Liu's mansion! Interrogate him carefully!"
