"No hurry, I have a few more words to say to Miss Chan'er."

Kou Ji withdrew his hand from Liu Heng, got up slowly, tidied his clothes, and bowed his hand to Su Chan'er who was standing by the bed.

When Su Chan'er looked strangely in return.

Kou Ji smiled and said, "I want the girl to keep the things I talked with Brother Liu Heng tonight. Although the city of Bianjing is big, the road is not easy."

Su Chan'er squatted stiffly, raised her head, and forced an ugly smile on her face.

"The little girl took it down."

Kou Ji's words are soft on the outside and strong on the inside.

It seemed that he was begging Su Chan'er, but in fact he was threatening her.

"Although the city of Bianjing is big, the roads are not easy to walk" this sentence is to remind Su Chan'er that as long as she dares to reveal the secret that Kou Ji discussed with Liu Heng tonight, there will be no place for her in Bianjing.

With the strength of Kou and Liu's family in Bianjing, it is easier to crush Su Chan'er than to crush an ant.

"Cicada is my person, you don't have to worry that she will reveal the plan between us. Hurry up, my dad is going to the military camp outside the city as usual tonight, but he just wasn't home."

Liu Heng returned Su Chan'er to protect him, took Kou Ji and left.

Kou Ji gave Su Chan'er a meaningful glance and followed Liu Heng out of Su Chan'er's boudoir.

"Master!"

"Little Master!"

"San Ye!"

"..."

Outside the boudoir, Erbao, Chief Kou, and Liu Heng's attendants immediately greeted him when they saw him appear.

Seeing that Erbao and Liu Heng's followers squinted, it was obvious that something was wrong with them.

Kou Ji smiled at Erbao, and Chief Kou nodded.

Liu Heng waved his hand and shouted: "Fight, go home!"

"Go!"

The men with big waists glared at Er Bao and agreed, like a crab, they went downstairs sideways and helped Liu Heng clear the people blocking the corridor.

"Little Master..."

Chief Kou leaned to Kou Ji's side and whispered softly, as if to remind him of something.

Kou Ji was taken aback and smiled and said to Liu Heng, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate to go out now? At this hour, there is already a curfew in the city."

Hearing this, Liu Heng curled his lips in disdain, "The people in the inspection department are all my father's subordinates. They dare to stop me?"

Liu Heng's words reveal the true nature of the young man.

Kou Ji didn't feel annoying, but looked at him with admiration.

Have the right to use it, and obsolete when obsolete;

Kou Ji is most yearning for the style of a dude like Liu Heng.

It's a pity that he has a huge backing, but he can't rely on it.

Under the guidance of Liu Heng, the three masters and servants of Kou Ji followed out of Wanhualou.

The city of Bianjing at night is quiet.

The hustle and bustle of the day was swept away.

The sound of gurgling water in the distant river was faintly audible.

There are literati and inkmen, hiding on the deck of a fishing boat, playing the flute, and the empty valley is quiet.

The breeze shook the willow branches, making a rustling sound, seeming to accompany the Dongxiao.

"Dangdangdang..."

The old guard, holding the lantern and knocking on the wooden clapper, seemed to be echoing across the bank.

however.

The scene did not last long before it was destroyed by a group of soldiers of the Forbidden Army who were armed with blades and armor.

"Who... There is already a curfew in the city, and you dare to hang around in the street and take it for me."

Liu Heng, Kou Ji and his entourage were obviously noticed by the soldiers of the Forbidden Army, and a group of soldiers of the Forbidden Army surrounded them with long swords in their hands under the yelling of the leader.

"Boom!"

Liu Heng tugged at the front of the front, a kick when he went up.

"Keep your dog eyes open to see who am I, Master?"

The servant Liu Jiahao immediately picked up the lantern to illuminate Liu Heng's face.

The forbidden army fought against Liu Heng for the first time, looking angry, but when he saw Liu Heng's face, he immediately changed his face.

He bowed to his knees with a flattering expression: "Oh, hey, it turned out to be the third son of the general's mansion. The villain has eyes but no knowledge of Mount Tai, and almost flooded the Dragon King Temple. Don't blame the third son."

Then I saw him turning around and shouting to the soldiers of the Forbidden Army behind him: "You dogs, what are you doing around San Gongzi, don't leave the way and let San Gongzi pass.

If the third son loses a hair because of your negligence, I will take your head. "

The soldiers of the Forbidden Army heard this and immediately gave way.

Liu Heng disdainfully kicked the imperial army again, scolding, "What a big water you are, you are just a barking dog."

When the imperial army heard the words, instead of being angry, they smiled flatteringly: "The third son is right. The villain is a dog, a dog raised in the son's mansion."

Liu Heng curled his lips in disgust, "Look for two people to open the way. Master, I don't want to be stopped anymore."

"Please, the villain will clear the way for you himself."

"..."

The imperial army didn't even go on patrol anymore. He led the imperial army soldiers under him and escorted Liu Heng and Kou Ji all the way to Liu's mansion.

Liu Mansion is in the west of the city, not far from Jinming Lake.

On the edge of Jinming Pool, besides Liu Mansion, there is another mansion.

Tianbo Yang Mansion.

In the past years, the Datong Army made Yang Ye famous in the first battle at Yanmen Pass, establishing the honorable status of the Yang family in the city of Bianjing.

Emperor Taizong Zhao Guangyi gave this mansion to the Yang family.

The Yang family at that time can be said to be the upstart in the city of Bianjing.

However, as Yang Yezhan died on the battlefield of Song-Liao Dynasty and Yang Zhaoying's successor, Yang Zhaoying, died young, Yang Mansion began to decline.

In the huge Yang Mansion, there were only two or three lights ablaze. The lanterns hung on the lintel, swaying with the breeze, seemed to be blown out at any time.

in contrast.

Liu Mansion seems to be compelling.

Thousands of lights were on fire, and the shining golden light of Liu Mansion was shining.

The glazed tiles on the roof are clearly visible under the light.

After Liu Heng arrived at the gate of Liu's mansion, he didn't rush into the mansion. Instead, he went to the restaurant opposite the mansion, knocked on the closed door, and invited the three of Kou Ji's master and servant to come in and rest for a while.

Before Liu Heng returned to the house, Kou Ji stopped him and said, "By the way, get the Chengxintang paper, pen and inkstone ready."

"Understand..."

Liu Heng agreed and hurried back to his house.

Accompanied by the shopkeeper of the restaurant, Kou Ji boarded the second floor of the restaurant, leaning on the railing, and looking at the Liu Mansion and Yang Mansion in the distance.

In the end, his eyes fell on Yang Mansion.

"Jiang Yang... Hey!"

Looking at the declining Yang Mansion, Kou Ji felt mixed.

He grew up listening to the story of "The Generals of the Yang Family" since he was a child, and he has special feelings for the Yang family.

Compared with the Liu family, the special feelings in his chest are even stronger.

Full of loyalty, but no match for nepotism!

The blood of a government, but it's no match for a beard!

How sad, sigh!

He sympathized with the Yang family, but he couldn't give the Yang family the honor it deserved, at least for now.

Because of the mess caused by his cheap father, he hasn't finished it yet.

Being poor cares themselves, being wealthy cares the world.

He is too busy to take care of himself now, how can he talk about helping others
