It was the sun, the sky was clear, and the spring breeze was gentle.\nThis season is the most comfortable time in Los Angeles. The cold winter has
completely disappeared, and the summer heat has not yet arrived.\nThe flowers are gorgeous and full, but there is still some time before they
bloom and fail.\nIf it were the usual, Los Angeles would be bustling with crowds at this time,
with shouts one after another. In the alleys and alleys with few shops,
children running and frolicking, in the shade of the trees, old people gather
in groups of three or five under the eaves, playing chess, drinking tea...\nBut the city of Los Angeles today is completely different from the past. The
scenery is still the same, but the whole city is covered by a thick layer of
"dead silence."\nIf you climb up the city wall and look down, you can see the anomaly in the
city at a glance.\nThe streets and alleys are empty. On some roads, you can still see vegetables
falling on the ground, trampled into mud, and even some objects that were too
late to be picked up. It can be seen how the entire Los Angeles city fell into
a certain moment before. In the chaos.\nAll the government officials in the city were dispatched, and some jailers
were transferred from the Los Angeles jail, every group of four, with their
sabers beating the hurried gongs and running on the empty streets.\nThe gate of the city was shut down, and the soldiers guarding the city became
vigilant and watched vigilantly for the surrounding wind and grass, and even
the water transportation on the pier stopped.\nAll channels that can leave Los Angeles are blocked. Unless they can fly, no
one or any goods should leave Los Angeles for half a step.\nJust an hour ago, there was a terrifying case in Los Angeles. The new prefect,
Mr. Zhong, was beaten in the street by a beggar. The beggar slapped him
several times in a vicious way, and then knocked Mr. Zhong fainted with
another punch. Unwilling to give up... Then he beat and kicked Master Zhong
who had fainted for a period of time, while beating and cursing words such as
"dog official" and "fish common people".\nThe two bearers who came out carrying Master Zhong did not know what means the
beggar used to hurt their eyes and kept rolling on the ground, covering their
faces.\nIf it hadn’t been for the screams that alarmed the officers and soldiers
looking for the street, the beggar wouldn’t know when he would commit
violence...\nAll the people in Los Angeles returned home and waited for the inspection by
the government officials to release the seal. A beggar gathering place in the
city became the focus of investigation. It is said that the follow-up
arrangements for the arrest of the murderer were all done by the master. It
seems that Master Zhong was seriously injured. After being carried back, he
has been in a coma, and all the famous doctors in the city have been asked to
leave by the Yamen.\nAll the bulletin boards in Los Angeles were affixed with wanted warrants
stamped with the seal of the prefect. It is said that... the master has
written a letter asking the knife head to be sent to the adjacent military
camp, and the commander of the military barracks is asked to deploy soldiers
stationed to assist the Yamen in the murder.\nAfterwards, according to the people who witnessed the case, the murderer was
very arrogant. After his evil deeds were discovered by the street-seeking
soldiers, the first reaction was not to run away, but to open his hair
covering his face, and did a series of actions towards the soldiers and the
onlookers. The grimace, and then ran away.\nBecause of this, a large number of people on the scene saw the true face of
the beggar, so the portrait of the murderer was drawn less than one hour after
the crime was committed and posted on the major notice boards in the city,
next to the wanted order.\nThe bounty is as high as a hundred taels of silver, and the people in the city
are encouraged... as long as you don't kill people, you can catch the
criminals by any means.\n...\nLin Buxian waited alone in the private room of Qibaolou. It was already noon,
but it was not Zhong Xiaoting who was waiting, but the shopkeeper of Qibaolou.\nThe shopkeeper came outside the private room and said to the inside through a
door: "Miss Si, the street is closed."\nLin Buxian's heart jumped, but calmly asked, "What happened?"\n"Suitable officials came and said that someone attacked the prefect in the
street. The master gave the order to die on behalf of the prefect. The city
gate and the water gate were closed. The gang was looking for the culprit from
house to house. The villain courageously interrogated the fourth lady. Said:
I'm afraid there will be a curfew tonight. Maybe he will report to the Master
at the Yamen for a while and explain the situation. Please send someone to
** the fourth young lady back to the house, or notify the house to let
Jiading pick up the fourth young lady back to the house."\n"I got it." Lin Buxian swallowed the question when he came to his lips. Since
the shopkeeper said so, it proved that the criminal who attacked the prefect
had not been caught.\nLin Buxian naturally knew who had beaten Zhong Xiaoting, and she had
personally covered that person to leave. The beggar who "stretched justice"
was Yun'an.\n...\nLast night, Lin Buxian and Yun An were almost "forced" to despair by Lin Wei's
"sending rebellion". Lin Buxian did not expect Aunt Liu to give birth, her
father could do so well, and Yunan... With hindsight, I discovered how
difficult it is for a "young" "businessman" of the lower ranks to make
progress in such an era.\nSome things really can’t be solved with caution, such as sending rebellion. If
Lin Wei becomes frantic and wants to kill himself at all costs, he can call
himself to his study, and then I took the tea cup to shine on my head, covered
my head and ran directly to the yamen, to sue myself for the crime of
rebellion. It is estimated that I would have to be beaten to death by Zhong
Xiaoting's "chaotic" club when he was in court.\nYun An stayed up all night. She fully realized how weak her self-protection
ability was. What if she was killed by others, what would Lin Buxian do? She
has basically no self-protection ability, what else can be done besides "death
to death"?\nYunan stayed up all night, why not Lin Buxian?\nAt midnight, Yun An seemed to have suddenly made up his mind. He sat up and
said to Lin Buxian: "Yixi, help me do a scene..."\nOn the evening of the day Zhong Xiaoting was beaten, Lin Buxian was able to go
home. The ban in the city was not lifted. It was only that the prefect was
awake and sent the government officials to inform the people of the Lin House
to take Miss Lin Si back.\nLin Buxian was full of anxiety and did not dare to show "showing" half a
point. Finally, when he returned home, he was called by Mother Lin. He said
something for a while before letting go. Lin Buxian returned to the room and
locked the door and hurried to the bed. At the same time, it was a sigh of
relief to see Yun An lying on the bed safe and sound.\nYun An narrowed his eyes into a slit, and when he saw Lin Buxian alone, he
immediately opened his eyes and looked at Lin Buxian with questioning eyes.\n"Only myself." Lin Buxian whispered.\nYun Andan sat up and took Lin Buxian's hand: "Are you okay?"\n"I... fine, how about you?"\nYun An hooked the corner of his mouth and replied, "I'm pretty good too, but
it's a pity that the officers and soldiers came too quickly..."\nLin Buxian looked at Yun'an for a while, and was completely relieved to see
that she was not injured. She came to the screen alone, took off her coat,
unbuttoned her skirt, and "exposed" the leggings on her calf...\nLin Buxian bent down and unfastened the flintlock on his leggings. Following
Yun'an's method, he unloaded the bullet inside, silently holding the flintlock
in his hand and covering it with his other hand.\nLin Buxian sat in front of the dressing table wearing only his Chinese
clothes, and while unloading Zhu Chai, put the flintlock gun in the wooden box
on the dressing table.\nHowever, Lin Buxian did not intend to tell anyone about all this, including
Yun An.\nIt was Yun'an's idea to beat Zhong Xiaoting in disguise and disguise to
prevent him from reaching Qibao Tower.\nYun'an Yulin Buxian took one step out of the Lin Mansion, and before Lin
Buxian went out to make the appointment, he suddenly remembered the flintlock
and took it with him in a mysterious manner.\nLin Wei wanted to "send Yun'an to disobedience", which gave Lin Buxian a very
bad impression...\nIn the past, Yunan did a lot of ignorant things. Although Lin Wei was angry,
he was more helpless. He never expressed his intention to "send Yunan to
disobedience".\nThere must be demon in the abnormal situation. Although Lin Buxian didn't say
much to Yun An, he secretly planned for the worst.\nFortunately, Yunan succeeded, and the rest can only be left in imagination.\nLin Buxian sat beside Yun'an casually, told Yun'an what she had heard from the
shopkeeper of Qibaolou, and then said, "I don't know if the day of our
departure will be affected."\n"It's a big deal. Let's go a day or two later. The road is a little faster.
How can we get the time back. I think the lockdown is only temporary, and it
will not exceed two days at most. Los Angeles is a trading city. The loss of
the day is immeasurable. If it is more than two days... Without our words,
someone will come forward for us. Besides, he was not beaten up in the street,
and it was not a life lawsuit. Why should I make such a big disturbance? When
beating him, I said a lot of bad things about him, that is, the problems that
will exist for corrupt officials and officials. I think Zhong Xiaoting has a
little touch, and it will not take long...The reason for Zhong Xiaoting's
beating will be Many versions have been deduced by the shop, when that
time..." Yun An snorted coldly, and said in a low voice: "It's best to have
Yushi and others pay attention to these folk rumors, and look up this Master
Zhong. . We can’t do anything about him. Could it be that no one can cure him
yet?”\nLin Buxian was silent for a moment, and said quietly, "I hope."\nYun'an didn't understand the situation of Yan State, Lin Buxian knew a
little... and I don't know why, there are very few deadly admonishers in this
dynasty.\nThe second prince sat in the East Palace, and Zhong Xiaoting became the cousin
of the prince. Although he was a relative of the prince, he was also regarded
as a relative of the emperor. After less than a hundred days, Zhong Xiaoting
squeezed out Li Qingshan who had been sitting in Los Angeles for more than ten
years , It is not difficult to see how much the prince's Royal Highness
attaches great importance to his uncle.\nLi Qingshan is not an ordinary prefect, who doesn't know that he is relying on
His Royal Highness King Ning?\nSpeaking of it, Li Qingshan is also considered a royal relative... But in this
matter, the prince did not save any face to King Ning. In the first few things
after the imprisonment of the country, King Ning was "inserted" in Luocheng.
The "nails" were pulled out.\n"Yun'an." Lin Buxian called.\n"Ok?"\n"Tomorrow we will go to my private library. I have something I want to put in
your...space. If Aunt Liu gave birth to a boy, we will stay in Yongzhou and
won't be back in the short term."\n"Where is your mother's birthday?" Yun'an asked.\n"I will find an opportunity to apologize to my mother and explain, and then
think of a reason that will not constitute "unfilial piety". Before we have
the ability to protect ourselves, try not to return to Los Angeles, or... wait
until my father announces the abolition of my heir status. After that, it is
probably safe. Moreover, Zhong Xiaoting is not a fool. He happened on the way
to the appointment. We are all within the scope of his suspicion. Taking him
as a human being suffered such a shame, even if it is not conclusive. Evidence
does not prevent him from venting his anger on others. The two words
"official" are not his words."
