The sound of horses' hooves rolled in my ears, and it seemed that it was not one or two people, but a whole army of soldiers and horses.

The hand on his shoulder was quite powerful, as if he could firmly control himself with a single effort.

After the initial stunned, Zhang Shou immediately relaxed, and asked with a smile without looking back, "Why don't you come for a drink?"

"You kid, it's really interesting, it's very good. ”

Hua Qi saw that many people who heard the sound of horses' hooves were looking nervously left and right, and even some of the children of Guijie showed a panicked expression, so he smiled lazily.

"Don't panic, I flew back last night. It's just that the bosses in the capital finally came to their senses and dispatched troops to sweep away the group of fish that slipped through the net in the Linhai camp. Eat and drink your food in peace, will they dare to kill you as a rebel?"

His voice didn't seem to be loud at first glance, but almost every kid could hear it clearly. Just in an instant, the turmoil that had just been born on the flowing water seat was immediately suppressed.

But Zhang Shou heard the sound outside the strings. What does it mean to dare to suppress you as a rebel army? What if people dare?

Sensing that Hua Qi was still pressing his shoulders and sitting down next to him, Zhang Shou casually took the pot and poured a cup for others, and saw that the person raised the glass with one hand and drank it all, but he still did not let go of the hand that was holding his shoulder, even Zhu Ying was sideways, not to mention the Wu family who frowned slightly, he put down the wine jug in his heart.

"Seventh Master Hua, I have a few words to tell you, can you make it convenient?"

"Oh?" Hua Qi said with a slight smile and a deep look in his eyes, "Naturally." ”

Zhang Shou saw that the hand on his shoulder suddenly relaxed, so he put down the wine pot and teacup with a smile, left the table unhurriedly, and waited for more than ten steps away, and came to the door of his own mansion at the entrance of the village, he could even see the dust on the official road in the distance, and then he asked: "Hua Qiye just held me down, is it afraid that I will ask something inappropriate? Is there anything wrong with the soldiers and horses coming?"

Hua Qi was silent for a moment, and then sneered: "The eldest lady is a delicate heart that turns back and forth, but when it is not necessary, she is too lazy to use her brain, you are smarter than her, how will you two live this life in the future?"

Seeing Zhang Shou's sneer, he said casually: "The adventure of having preparation time in advance is different from suddenly facing danger. I'm afraid that you were able to deal with it last night, and today you suddenly face the shock and behave at a loss. ”

"But it seems that you are calmer than I thought. However, you are Yingying's fiancé, Zhao Guogong's son-in-law, and the grandson-in-law of that lady. There will be a lot of winds and waves to face in the future, so it's good to practice now. To tell you the truth, the soldiers and horses I left outside did not send a letter in advance, so there is probably something wrong with the soldiers and horses that came. ”

After Hua Qi finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the path that led directly to the official road outside the village, and said without looking back: "However, I have already flown a pigeon to report the incident of last night to the capital, and that is true." Even if the leader of the army really has a problem, as long as he doesn't want to become a rebel or a thief, he shouldn't go crazy. But I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm just afraid of what happens, I'll deal with it, and if something happens, I'll warn you. ”

Zhang Shou was helpless in his heart, this was really a wave of unsettled waves. If someone comes with the idea of quelling the chaos openly and secretly, then the worst possibility of turning back is to slaughter the entire village, including the children of Guijie, and then blame the rebels.

Just like Hua Qi said, this possibility is actually very small, but it must be guarded against......

Thinking of this possibility, he suddenly turned around, and was almost startled by the person standing behind him.

Who else is not Zhu Ying?

He subconsciously asked, "Did you hear it all?"

"Of course I heard it!" Zhu Ying raised her head slightly vividly, and then snorted softly, "You and Uncle Hua will know how to hide it from me!"

Zhang Shou couldn't help but laugh dumbly. The eldest lady thought that she was pretending to be very similar, but from her relaxed tone, he knew that she must have just sneaked over. He stared at her who had just drunk a few more glasses, and her cheeks were even more flushed for a while, and when he saw her staring at Hua Qi's back curiously, he smiled and said, "I just don't want to let you ruin this birthday banquet, come, let's go back." ”

Returning to the flowing water seat, Zhang Shou brought Zhu Ying to hold the pot to persuade the wine from table to table, but he only occasionally took a sip. Even so, there is no one in the village who does not give face.

And even if the disciples of Guijie don't look at him as a disciple of Ge Yong, the face of the credit just shared, they have to look at the face of Zhu Ying, who is watching from the side, so they don't count drinking it themselves, and none of them dare to drink wine.

It's just that after the two passed, Lu Sanlang heard Zhang Lu on the side muttering: "It's just a birthday, and it looks like a marriage." ”

"You have the ability to ask the lady of Zhao Guogong's mansion why she let Miss Zhu spend her birthday here. Lu Sanlang stabbed angrily, and then the bull head said to the horse's mouth, "What kind of marriage, how can the groom wear purple ......"

He used to get rid of his self-righteous father and brother by pursuing Zhu Ying, but now that he is the grandson of Ge's disciple, Zhu Ying's shield can be thrown away...... In the future, I will take Zhang Shou, the little gentleman, as a shield!

Zhang Shou quietly toasted while picking a specific person to give a few words. Zhu Ying didn't notice it at first, but gradually realized that she was still flattering a lot of Yang Laoqi at the beginning, but when she turned her head, the person was gone. Not only Yang Laoqi, but also several faces that she was vaguely familiar with.

When she finally walked back, she couldn't help but tug on Zhang Shou's sleeve: "You toast around, there are less than a dozen people on this flowing table, what did you just say to them? What did you and Uncle Hua hide from me?"

Zhang Shou looked at his sleeve that fell into the clutches of the eldest lady again, and then looked at the familiar table on the side, all the guys who obviously bowed their heads but did not forget to peep, he could only cough lightly and said: "Go back and talk ......"

However, as soon as he said these three words, Zhu Ying did not object, but someone couldn't help but shoot the case: "Is there anything you can't say in front of us?"

Seeing that Zhang Chen, who Huo Ran got up, his face was flushed, and he didn't have to think about it to know that he must have poured a few more bowls of wine to kill his sorrows, and then saw that people's bloodshot eyes were not staring at Zhu Ying, but staring at himself, Zhang Shou couldn't help laughing, and then pulled Lu Sanlang away, and actually sat down at this table.

And Zhu Ying, who unconsciously let go of his sleeve, reacted, immediately pushed another person, and also sat down at this table domineeringly. Immediately after, the eldest lady used her knife-like eyes to drive away all the other two people at the same table.

Sensing that the sound of horses' hooves had stopped before, Zhang Shou didn't know what the result of Hua Qi's negotiation was, and saw that Lu Sanlang squeezed away a noble disciple who couldn't bear Zhu Ying's domineering eyes, and Zhang Wu and a few people who had been the first to see his true face surrounded him, so he whispered lightly: "Just now Hua Qiye said that those soldiers and horses outside may be reinforcements, maybe they are not good." ”

For this group of noble disciples, the four words that the person who came is not good are enough to deter them, and even Zhang Chen, who was originally drunk, sobered up in an instant, and for a while, seven or eight faces around him turned pale.

And Zhu Ying immediately slammed the slap on the table after the initial anger, but her voice was extremely low: "What are you afraid of, no matter which army and horses, if they really want to have bad intentions, as long as we can live one person when we turn back, they will all punish the Nine Clans!"

Zhang Shou smiled slightly: "That's right, so I asked Yang Laoqi and them to take away all the rebellious troops last night." Since they have been pretending to be a farmer under my nose for so many years, they still have this ability. As long as the person who killed the mouth can't be caught, I don't think the person who came would be so stupid to take such a risk, even if the person who came was not good. ”

Zhu Ying greatly agreed, slapped the table again, and said word by word: "Isn't there anyone who regrets that it didn't come in handy last night? All of them go to the head table with me and Ah Shou and sit down! If anyone dares to enter the village for a while, then show the momentum that you usually run rampant in the capital! See who is afraid of whom!"

"Yes, who is afraid of whom!" Zhang Chen poured another glass of wine, and then glanced at everyone fiercely, "Let's sit down, eat and drink happily, and the sky will fall...... Everyone's on top of it!"
