Chapter 765 Returning to Luoyang City (repair)

"Report—"

Outside the Luoyang city gate, there were crowds of people, and a group of nobles wearing silk were waiting. Opposite them, a group of ghostly people stood.

It is said that it is a ghostly spirit, but there are no ghosts. Judging from their appearance, they are wearing black background and gold-edged clothes, and they are all handsome young people, but when they stand there, they exudes a feminine spirit, which makes people feel uncomfortable. Compared with them, the rough men next to them are much more vigorous and strong. These people are Jinyiwei, all from the army and very masculine.

The servant shouted loudly from far to near, and everyone's hearts rose. The King of Hell, who had been disturbed by Luoyang City for nearly a month, finally came back. I heard that he was a little arrogant, and I don't know how to take revenge when he came back this time.

"...The Marquis's car is two miles away, and it will arrive soon!"

"Erli?" A fat middle-aged man screamed: "Isn't this right in front of me? What are you waiting for? Get some blowing!"

The people next to them also shouted: "Hurry up and play, do you still remember what you taught yesterday? If you can't remember, hurry up and think about those who shouted, and you will be counted on you. If the Marquis can't hear you, go back and peel you off!"

When the Jinyiwei and the people from the East Factory saw these people's faces, they all showed disdain. Where did these slutty men go when the Marquis came a month ago? They had to use the means to fix them. If you are tough guys, you will stand up and give in and give in?

Speaking of this, it is not unlucky. The only tough guy in Luoyang City is the legendary Miss Lu, Jinyiwei and the people from the East Factory. It’s not that I didn’t want to go over and disturb her, but the problem is that I can’t find this person!

Everyone knows that there is such a person. There seems to be her shadow everywhere in Luoyang City. But this person cannot be found!

No matter what method is used, no trace can be found. This is almost impossible. At first, Dugu Jiu believed that these people were deliberately protecting Miss Lu, but after half a month of investigation, the conclusion was that they really didn't know.

Dugu Jiu also tried to send someone to follow him, but unfortunately he would break the line for no reason every time he followed him. He even took action himself, but unfortunately he failed in the end. When he arrived near Beimang Mountain outside the city, he entered the forest with his front foot and became dizzy. No matter how he ran, he could only run back to the edge of the forest, which was very evil.

Helplessly, Dugu Jiu had to give up. Miss Lu had no action, so she did not interfere with Li Mu's plan. It would be nice to be together in peace. Dugu Jiu thought that even if there was a problem, it would not be too late to wait for Li Mu to solve it.

He thought that Li Mu would come quickly after the crowning ceremony, but he didn't expect that it would take so long. Half a month after the crowning ceremony, Li Mu came late. During this period, there was a feeling of undercurrents in Luoyang City. There seemed to be nothing unusual on the surface, but Dugu Jiu had already grasped that some families had secretly transferred people to Luoyang. What was their purpose? It was not known yet. This made Dugu Jiu very irritable. After being in the secret guard of the Jinyi for a long time, he had a little malicious intention when he saw everything.

"See! The Marquis's car!" someone shouted, and Dugu Jiu also looked over, and saw an additional roof on the horizon. Then, a flag was added on the roof.

What? A flag?

Dugu Jiu thought he was dazzled, but when he saw the reactions of the people around him, he knew that he was not dazzled, and a flag indeed appeared. There was a huge word written on it.

"handsome!"

Everyone subconsciously read it out, and when they got closer, they could see clearly. There was still a layer of paper on the flagpole, and an arrow was drawn on the paper. The arrow was downward, pointing to Li Mu holding the flagpole in his hand.

What does this mean?

Everyone looked at each other. In this era, the concept of "superman" has not yet been formed. When people see "superman", there is only one concept in their minds, that is, "superman" in the army. But the flag of the army is not as good as that. The flag of the coach is either a totem, such as a dragon, tiger, leopard, lion, and bear, or a surname. For example, Li Jing's flag of the coach is beaten out and the three armies on the opposite side are trembling. There is no such thing as this, the word "superman" and the arrow is also on, for fear that others will not know where it is.

"Brother!" Dugu Jiu drove over and came to Li Mu, and was stunned again. Li Mu was still wearing a set of armor, and there was also a big handsome character in the middle of the armor. He really didn't know what Li Mu meant.

"Good brother!" Li Mu saw Dugu Jiu, handed the flagpole to the person next to him to catch it, and opened his arms to give Dugu Jiu a big hug. After not seeing him for many days, he also wanted Dugu Jiu. Dugu Jiu pushed Li Mu away unnaturally and changed the topic: "Brother, what's wrong with your flag?"

"This is my invention on the road." Li Mu took out a picture from his arms, which was actually chess. But the chess he drew was a thirty-two-subtle chess from later generations, which was slightly different from the gameplay in the early Tang Dynasty. The inheritance of chess can be traced back to the Warring States Period, and it was called the Xiang Opera. Evolution of the past dynasties, there were twelve sons and eighteen sons, gradually increasing, and the final version was in the middle of the Tang Dynasty. Li Mu took it out now, which was a small step ahead.

Dugu Jiu has played chess. Although it is a bit different, he can recognize it. He just doesn't understand why Li Mu had to make such a flag and what happened with this armor. He looks really stupid!

"This is for training troops." Li Mubi explained in a striking manner: "Xiaojiu, think about it, if we set up a schoolyard, draw my chessboard, and then let the two teams take one side, put on the armor like me, and then use the weapons to fight-"

Dugu Jiu frowned and said, "Brother, how can you play with someone's life?"

"Oh, what kind of life is not that serious?" Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Of course it's a blunt blade, so it's a school exam. For generals and generals, controlling the overall situation is like this chessboard. Isn't it great to practice skills? The chess game is like a battlefield, brother!"

Dugu Jiu came from a family and naturally received military education. Li Mu was confused, but he could understand. According to what Li Mu said, he thought about it and found that it was indeed effective. But it was not without disadvantages.

"Brother, I'm afraid it won't work. For example, I ate a horse with a car, but my 'car' can't beat the 'horse' on the opposite side. How do you calculate it?"

"It deserves it!" Li Mu smiled and said, "Isn't this normal? The same is true for the two armies to fight. You went to beat someone but never fought. Could it be that you still commit suicide?"

Dugu Jiu was stunned. He didn't know how to follow Li Mu's words. Isn't it a chess? Isn't it a test of strategy? Why does it sound like a kind of courage of an ordinary man!

"Then how to play this chess?"

"It's easy, just like you said, if you eat my horse with a car. If you haven't beaten it, your car will be gone, and my horse will still be there!" Li Mu looked as if he was just a matter of course. Seeing Dugu Jiu's shocked look on his face, he patted Dugu Jiu on the shoulder and said, "Young man, don't be limited by his inherent thinking. Things in the world are unpredictable, and you must respond immediately. Some people can turn the tide. Think about it, if a big man wears a horse and stands there, how many "cars" can eat him?"

Dugu Jiuyi Dai, I don’t know how to refute it. It’s true as Li Mu said. If Li Chongyi is a ‘horse’, it’s better not to eat this horse, because no one can beat him.

After thinking about it, this game is really interesting.

The two brothers had a happy chat and completely left a group of people waiting. Especially those who were arranged to beat the drums and drums, they were not beaten, nor were they not beaten. They were afraid that they would disturb Li Mu's words and made him unhappy. If they didn't beat, they were worried that their boss would peel off their own skin. It was really a dilemma.

"Oh, who are these?" Li Mu finally saw it and smiled and said, "Aren't these thieves who stole my Shangfang Sword? Why, finally, I am willing to hand over the Shangfang Sword given by His Majesty? You thieves?"

Everyone looked at the Longquan Sword on Li Mu's waist and thought to himself, no wonder he was a marquis. He could tell lies to this point with his eyes open, and he would not be able to find a second person in the world. Now that this situation is, he will definitely not be able to defend himself. If he makes it clear, he doesn't want to reason. There is no way, so he can only admit defeat.

"Marty, I'm guilty!"

"Cancel?" Li Mu looked surprised: "What's going on? I just threw a sword, why did you admit so many guilty people? What do you mean? Do you collude to put pressure on me? I want to do something wrong to blame everyone? Tell you, there is no way! I must investigate. Which brave thief stole the Shangfang sword given to me by His Majesty. You want to connect and shelter me. Tell you that there is no way!"

Who is this? Everyone was complaining in their hearts, obviously not wanting to turn the story. There was no way. Everyone looked at each other and the fat man who shouted the most happily stood up: "Marquis, the villain's surname is Cui, who is in the silk business in Nanshi. The Marquis misunderstood. What we said was that the crime was not the crime of stealing the Shangfang sword. Who dared to make an idea about the Shangfang sword given by Your Majesty? What the villain said was the crime of losing the greeting when the Marquis came to Luoyang last time. There are many Marquis, so forgive me."

Everyone said in unison: "Please beg the marquis to be kind to me, forgive me."

"Please beg the marquis!"

"What are you doing!" Li Mu was very angry: "Do you want to put this lord in a state of injustice when you speak like this? If this is reached by Your Majesty, you should not think that this lord is arrogant and domineering?" Without waiting for the fat man to defend himself, Li Mu interrupted first and signaled to the young Eunuch Chen standing next to him and said: "This is walking in the palace. Have you ever heard of the Eunuch Gao next to Your Majesty? This is his godson, Eunuch Chen from the West Factory."

"The East Factory supervises the world, and the West Factory supervises the East Factory. For the matter of Shangfang Sword, Your Majesty even sent out the eunuchs of the West Factory, which shows that Long Yan was furious." Li Mu said bitterly: "Whoever has taken Shangfang Sword, why don't you tell me. This marquis is guaranteed by character, and only pursues the main culprit, not the accomplice, confesses leniently, resists strictness, and the whistleblower is rewarded with merits. This marquis has paid a lot of money to repay!"

After hearing this, Eunuch Chen was happy. Li Mu was praising him. The scope of activities of the East and West Factory was mainly in Chang'an City. Li Mu called him in Luoyang City, otherwise he had almost never left Chang'an City. What kind of East Factory monitors the world, but there is no such thing as the East Factory. If he really monitors the world, wouldn't his old godfather have to laugh out loud?

There is something happening when the West Factory supervises the East Factory. But so far, there seems to be nothing to monitor, and there is no sense of superiority, and it is done similarly.

But when Li Mu gave him a face, he had to take care of him. Eunuch Chen coughed lightly and said, "When our family left the palace, my godfather gave it a special explanation. Shangfang Baojian is very troublesome, and when necessary, he must kill a few people."

Killing a few people was as light as killing a few chickens. Everyone suddenly felt a chill on the back of their necks, and they didn't dare to look at them, so they all lowered their heads.

Seeing this, the fat man suddenly came to his heart and walked over with a smile. The Jinyiwei embroidered the Chunshao out of the sheath. The fat man hurriedly raised his hand and said, "I have two words to say to the Marquis, dear soldiers, just two words."

When he raised his hand, Li Mu caught a glimpse of what was in his cuff, waved his hand, and said, "Go aside, maybe he surrendered. Didn't you hear what I just said? Be honest and lenient, resist strictness!"

The Jinyiwei put away the knife, and the fat man came to Li Mu, but the eyes of the Jinyiwei still locked on him. If he pulled out the sharp blade and stabbed Li Mu, he would be crushed to pieces in an instant.

I saw that the fat man reached into his cuff.

The Jinyiwei put his hand on the hilt of the knife again.

A piece of crystal clear glass appeared in the palm of the fat man's palm. The Sihai Gambling House's general chips were 1,000 jin, and under the scorching sun, it exuded dazzling glory.

Li Mu swept his sleeves and naturally took the chips over. The whole movement was smooth and undetectable.

"This man is honest and honest. He must not be the thief who steals the sword. Come on, ask him what his name is, and his suspicion can be ruled out."

The fat man was immediately happy and said repeatedly: "Mr. Marquis is wise, and the villain is a duty businessman. In the future, he will be the Marquis to serve as a man. I heard that Marquis will set up a trading market in Luoyang, and then—"

Li Mu raised his face: "I'm talking too much! Why do I think you're a little suspicious again?"

The fat man quickly shut up and handed over another thousand guan. Li Mu received it in his sleeves, then cleared his throat and said, "Come in a few days, there will be a place for you."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" The fat man didn't dare to speak any more, bowed and thanked him repeatedly, and retreated to the crowd.

Some people were close to each other and saw the fat man’s actions just now, and immediately learned something. Some people were far away and didn’t see clearly, and pulled the fat man to ask. Some people were unlucky, but those who didn’t bring money quickly sent someone back to get it. The crowd was in a mess, and Li Mu threatened with a gun and a stick while collecting the money. Dugu Jiu and Xiao Chen also cooperated with each other. It was not that the house was getting worse, but that someone reported that his family had red and yellow robes. No matter what the reason was, as long as the money was given, they all became honest people and cleared of the suspicion.
