Chapter 287: The "Assassin" of Shattered Leaf City


Broken Leaf City opened a new restaurant called "Juyuan Zhai", because the shopkeeper Fang Lao Ba is good at managing and bringing forth the new, so it soon became famous in Broken Leaves, and became a restaurant that can compete with the old drunken fairy building, and there are many dignitaries and nobles who often gather and feast here.On this day, a gorgeously dressed guest came to Juyuanzhai, asked for a private room, and ordered the most expensive wine and food in the store, saying that a few friends were coming.But the dishes are all ready, but the guests are not seen for a long time.The guest waited impatiently, ate a table of wine and food, and then said to the shopkeeper, "Little Er, ask your shopkeeper to come." ”The shopkeeper immediately called Fang Laoba, the guest officer took out a bead, and said to the other party: "Shopkeeper, I was tricked by friends today, they said that they were good to treat, and asked me to order food first, but these people didn't come, I didn't have enough silver on me, I want to put this bead here first, and then redeem it with silver tomorrow."

Do you think so?

”Fang Laoba took the bead and took a closer look, this is the famous "Hepu Zhu", knowing that it is not something that ordinary people can have, it seems that this person's status is not low, so he said: "Okay, I'll give you a note."

-How do you know that the guest waved his hand and said: "There is no need for a note or something, the shopkeeper is an honest person, I can trust you." ”Fang Laoba politely sent the guest to the door of the restaurant, and when he came back and passed through the hall, the two big men who were eating saw the beads in his hands, their faces suddenly changed, they stood up, and said, "Shopkeeper, the beads in your hands are rare treasures!"

”Fang Laoba said with a smile: "This is just now a guest officer who forgot the food money and bet on me." ”"What about the guest officer?"

Fang Laoba said: "Just walked out!"

”A big man suddenly pulled out a matching knife, put it on Fang Laoba's neck, and shouted: "Three days ago, a batch of treasures were lost in the palace, among which is this bead, go, come with us to the Yamen!"

”The guests who were eating heard the noise and gathered around.A big man took out a waist card with the words "Jinyiwei" written on it, and shook it towards everyone, and when everyone saw it, they immediately made no noise and all returned to their seats.Fang Laoba shouted loudly, and the two big men couldn't help but say, took a rope to trap him, took him to Jinyiwei's prison, locked him in a cell, and said, "When our leader comes back, I will try you!"

”Fang Lao Ba couldn't escape if he wanted to, so he had to stay in the room obediently, but no one paid attention to him for two whole days, and he stayed until the third day, when a big man came in, and the other Lao Ba said: "We have caught the person who stole the treasures of the palace, and it really has nothing to do with you, you can go." ”Fang Laoba was angry in his heart, and he didn't dare to spread wild in front of these wolf-like brocade guards, so he had to say nothing and returned to Juyuanzhai.The next day, Wu Xin from Jinyuan Buzhuang in the east of the city came to Juyuan Zhai, and Fang Laoba put down what he was doing, took Wu Xin to a private seat, and personally accompanied him to drink.Wu Xin drank two glasses and asked, "Old Fang, I heard that you were called by Jinyi Wei a few days ago?"

”Fang Laoba said: "Yes, I really don't know what bad luck I had, they arrested me for no reason, locked me up for two days, and then released me inexplicably." ”Wu Xin was surprised: "Didn't you ask a single question, and let you come back?"

”Fang Laoba shook his head and said, "I've been locked up for three days, and no one has come to ask me a word except for the food delivery."

Wu Xin stared at Fang Laoba and said, "There was a theft in the palace, how did the people of the Jinyi Guard get involved with you?"

”After speaking, he made a gesture at Fang Lao Ba and left.The next morning, Fang Laoba was busy in the store when he suddenly heard two customers saying, "The Wuxin Wu shopkeeper of Jinyuan Buzhuang in the east of the city was killed last night. ”Fang Laoba was taken aback, and hurriedly called a guy and asked him to inquire.The guy went and came back not long after, saying that after Wu Xin left Juyuanzhai yesterday, he went to visit two friends again, and it was late at night when he returned to the store, and this morning, the guy found that he had been hacked to death in the room.Another day passed, at noon, a big man came to Juyuan Zhai, found a seat by the window, drank wine alone, saw Fang Laoba walking through the lobby, he suddenly stood up, raised his hand, and a dart flew towards Fang Laoba, Fang Laoba was taken aback, grabbed a chair next to him and threw it at the man.The dart was blocked by this, lost its head, "pounced" on the ground, and inserted it into the pillar next to Fang Laoba.The man missed, and jumped out of the window.The guys in the shop picked up the guys, shouted and chased downstairs, at this time, a British officer patrolling the street happened to pass by, and hurriedly drank these shopkeepers, Fang Laoba hurriedly stepped forward and said what happened just now, the officer listened and said: "It seems that you have provoked the enemy, he will definitely not give up if he misses a blow."

Well, I'll send two soldiers to protect you. ”Fang Laoba hurriedly excused himself, and the officer said, "You just need to take care of their food, don't worry about anything else."

Juyuanzhai is a good place to eat, and the brothers like it very much. ”After the officer finished speaking, he called two soldiers, one tall and one short, changed their attire, and stayed in the restaurant.Fang Laoba couldn't refuse, so he had to accept the officer's arrangement.One of the two soldiers, tall and short, stood at the door every day, observing the guests entering the store, and the other was always beside Fang Laoba, Fang Laoba told the soldiers not to stare so closely, and the soldier said: "Shopkeeper Fang, no, if something happens to you, our brothers' heads will not be saved." ”Two days later, another person came and wanted to assassinate Fang Laoba, the tall soldier made a timely move and knocked the assassin's weapon to the ground, but it was a scimitar, Fang Laoba's face changed in fright.From then on, the two soldiers guarded more tightly.That night, Fang Laoba, who was asleep, was awakened by a loud noise, and there was a fierce sound of blades intersecting outside.Suddenly, the short soldier slammed into the door, pulled Fang Lao Ba up, and shouted, "Hurry up!"

”Fang Laoba was taken aback, and hurriedly asked what was wrong, and the short soldier shouted: "There are several people here this time, we can't stand it, you come with me!"

”Sure enough, the sound of fighting outside was getting closer and closer, and when Fang Laoba was still hesitating, he rushed into a masked man and slashed at Fang Laoba with a scimitar in his hand.The short soldier grabbed the masked man's knife, kicked him out, closed the door with his backhand, and pushed the cabinet behind the door.The people outside began to bang on the door, and the soldier pulled Fang Laoba and shouted, "Shopkeeper Fang, hurry up, jump downstairs from the window." ”Fang Laoba was so frightened that he followed the short soldier and jumped down.At this moment, a person also jumped down from another window, but it was the tall soldier.The two masked men jumped down as well, and the tall soldier immediately rushed forward with his sword and fought with them.At this time, several masked people jumped down from the upstairs one after another, and the short soldier pulled Fang Laoba to run, and just ran not far, he heard a miserable scream from the tall soldier behind him, and the short soldier trembled, shouted "brother", and then pulled Fang Laoba to continue running.Several masked men chased desperately behind, and seeing that they were about to be overtaken, a group of soldiers suddenly came over in front of them, and the short soldiers hurriedly shouted: "Brothers, help me, there are assassins behind!"

When the soldiers heard this, they immediately ran over and rushed towards the masked man.As soon as several masked men saw the situation, they scattered and fled.The one who took this team of soldiers on patrol was the officer he met last time, Fang Laoba hurriedly stepped forward to thank him for saving his life, the officer glanced at him and said, "You are a restaurant owner, how can you provoke such a powerful enemy?"

Look at this posture, these people are not small, they are not something I can deal with, if you want to live, follow me to meet our Jinyi Guard's Ye Juzuo!

”The Ye Juza he said refers to Ye Muyi, the current leader of Jinyiwei.When Fang Laoba heard that there was a chance to live, he hurriedly agreed.After this period of tossing, the sky was gradually brightening, and the officer took Fang Laoba to Ye Muyi's house, and Ye Muyi's personal soldiers said as soon as they saw them: "The bureau has already gotten up, and I am waiting for you, go quickly!"

”The officer took Fang Laoba to see Ye Muyi, and just sat down, another officer came in outside, and reported that there were three corpses in Juyuanzhai, two of which were masked people, and they all had special marks on the secret spy of the Tang Dynasty, and another team of soldiers patrolling the streets also caught a masked man, who had already been tried, and he confessed that he was a killer sent by Baiqi, and was assigned to assassinate Fang Laoba.When Fang Laoba heard this, he was so frightened that he shouted: "Ye Juzao, save me!"

”Ye Muyi looked at the old man below and said, "You are just a restaurant owner, how can you recruit these killers from Chang'an to kill you?"

If you don't make it clear, how can I save you?

”Fang Laoba knelt down towards Ye Muyi with a "plop", and said: "Ye Juzao, I am also a spy planted by Baiqi......"

Ye Muyi looked at Lao Ba below with a shocked face, "What, you are also a spy of Baiqi, don't look at the joke, Fang Shopkeeper, we have a number of spies of Baiqi, you are a ..... of a well-behaved shopkeeper" Fang Laoba was anxious when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "I am indeed a spy sent by the hundred horsemen, and I blame the robber who stole the treasures of the palace, so that I was imprisoned for three days.Jinyuan Budian Wuxin is also my accomplice, seeing that I was imprisoned, he has some doubts about me, but as soon as he saw me go back, he was killed, and your soldiers guard me every day, I can't explain it to my accomplices, so those accomplices must think that I have a different heart, so they keep sending assassins to kill me. ”Ye Muyi said, "Shopkeeper Fang, I can't see that you are still a spy, hehehe, only if you identify all those spies, we can protect your life." ”Fang Laoba nodded yes, wrote a list of all the spies he knew, and handed it over.Ye Muyi handed the list to the officer and said, "Arrest all the people on the list immediately!"

”Fang Laoba asked, "Ye Juzao, what should I do?"

”Ye Muyi laughed: "To tell you the truth, your master, Li Xiaojiu of Chang'an, did not send anyone to kill you, everything was arranged by me."

You can eat our British prison meal with peace of mind!

”When Fang Laoba heard this, he collapsed on the ground with a thud, while Ye Muyi sneered and said, "Fang Laoba, we have long been eyeing you and Jinyuan Buzhuang's Wuxin, you think that the gods are unaware, but the moment you enter our Great Bye, you are under our close surveillance.....

Fang Laoba, you have tried to steal the secret of our earth-shaking thunder many times, and you have borrowed the restaurant to make friends with our British magnates and tried to pull them into the water, these things, really think we don't know?"

Or do you think that our Jinyiwei eat dry rice?

”After hearing this, Fang Laoba lowered his head and couldn't say a word, allowing a few brocade guards to drag him away......
