On the morning of the eighth day of the first lunar month, Shen Qihuan and Changru looked at the snow scene outside and ate a mutton hot pot, and then went out of the house in their own ways. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Shen Qihuan asked Deng Feng to invite more than a dozen people in the martial arts hall and came to Shuijing Hutong together, Chen Xu felt that this time he would have to solve it by force, and when he went out, he also borrowed a shovel in the inn to help.

When they met at the street entrance, Shen Qihuan looked at Chen Xu thoroughly from head to toe and from foot to head, and finally showed a look of complete contempt. Chen Xu had to quietly throw the shovel and come out with a big red face.

Shuijing Hutong Xu Zhai, no, it should be called Chen Zhai now, there is no so-called owner, but there are three or two big men in charge, and they were arrogant at first, but when they saw those acquaintances in the martial arts hall, they shrank their necks and said: "Ouch, isn't this Yao Da......? The younger one also collects money to do things, and Mrs. Xu hired four of us brothers to come to the house, and promised to give us one or two pieces of silver a day. ”

Deng Feng threw a silver ingot to him, "This courtyard belongs to our Chen family, you go to Mrs. Xu to run an errand, just say that the Chen family spent 1,100 taels to buy this courtyard, and the contract certificate has a foundation in the government, and we have a reason to make trouble in the government." ”

Those few people got the silver and left happily, Deng Feng beckoned the people of the martial arts hall to enter the courtyard to rest, he had been in the Penglai for a few years, and he was the best at making friends with the rivers and lakes, and after a while, those who practiced martial arts called him brothers.

Shen Quehuan visited Chen Xu's yard with his hands behind his back, this yard has been deserted for many years, many big trees with thick hugs have become empty shells, and the mottled ones are full of insect holes, and there is a small pond in the yard.

"Has the Dong family come to you again?" Shen Qihuan poked the ice floe with a wooden stick, and asked Chen Xu if there was a match.

Chen Xu didn't dare to relax for a moment in front of Shen Qihuan, "I came once, and Zhang Wen told Mrs. Dong that I went back to my hometown and never came again." ”

Zhang Wen is Chen Xu's little servant, a person who is as wooden as him, but Chen Xu is a real wooden person, and Zhang Wen is clever in his heart.

"I think Miss Dong should forget it, it's a trouble to marry back, and if you become an official in the future, the little girls who like you may have to be in groups. "She is a young lady, her face is not red and her heart is not beating when she talks about this, and she squats on the edge of the pool, just like those martial artists outside.

Chen Xu secretly interrogated himself, but he didn't dare to question it, and he didn't know what he had responded to in a muffled voice.

Deng Feng ran over and squatted beside her, and said with a smile: "Miss, outside Brother Yao heard that you are the young lady of the royal family, and he wants to have a few tricks with you." ”

Chen Xu's eyes widened, thinking that it was from the three sects and nine streams, how could he be embarrassed to fight with the young lady, he was about to help Shen Qihuan resign, Shen Qihuan had already patted his skirt and stood up.

"Okay, find a spacious place. She walked briskly towards the outer courtyard, and after passing the moon gate, she heard her and the group of martial artists haha: "It's not good to compete in martial arts, you have to place a bet." ”

There was a burst of laughter outside, and someone said loudly: "No, if Miss wins, we won't charge a penny this time." ”

"That's a good feeling, if I lose double and settle it with you. ”

A round of applause ensued.

Chen Xu hurriedly ran out, and when he crossed the moon gate, Shen Qihuan had already fought with a man like a thin monkey, Chen Xu had seen Shen Qihuan kill people with his own eyes last time, so fast and ruthless, but the first time he saw her fighting with someone, Chen Xu's clenched hand suddenly loosened, and it was difficult to remove his eyes for a moment.

This thin monkey was obviously the smallest and weakest of those martial arts, and he was defeated in three or two, and Shen Qihuan didn't have time for them to choose others, so he directly attacked the leading Yao.

Her body doesn't seem to need to gather momentum, her elbow is with the help of Yao Da's shoulder and arm, and the person has already risen into the air, as fast as lightning. Yao Da's upper body was loose, and he attacked Shen Qihuan in reverse. Yao Da is good at surprise attacks, and he shoots straight out, it is not easy for ordinary people to dodge, Shen Qihuan suddenly turned sideways and lowered his waist, and the instep bounced directly into the back of Yao Da's head, Yao Da was able to dodge, Shen Qihuan actually spun sideways and kicked Yao Da in the chest.

"Poof", a move that is not light or heavy after removing the internal force, but those who know martial arts know that if this kick is injected with internal force, it should be an extremely fierce blow.

Yao Da was forced to retreat and admit defeat: "Yao is convinced." ”

Others teased him gossipily: "It's not easy for you Yao Jiuqu to admit defeat." ”

Shen Qihuan put down her skirt and arched her hand with a smile: "Accept it, Brother Yao knows that I am a woman, so I avoid using the upper road boxing method, I am also a trick, if I can't attack quickly, I will definitely not be able to make ten more moves with Brother Yao." ”

Someone said: "It is not easy for our brothers in our own martial arts hall to be able to pass ten moves with Senior Brother Yao. ”

Someone else chimed in: "Yes, yes, it is worthy of being the granddaughter of the great general Wang Yan, the tiger girl of the gate, the tiger girl of the gate." ”

Shen Quehuan's bright expression was a little obscure, she was indeed a tiger girl, and she always was.

Chen Xu was still stunned in place, and in front of him was the arc that Shen Qihuan had just bent, and the arc was really beautiful, like a curved moon, and like the horns of a goat hanging upside down.

Deng Feng saw that Chen Xu was already stupid, and couldn't help but turn him with his elbow: "What's the matter, I can't find a better young lady than the third lady in the capital, right?"

Chen Xu's heart jumped, hiding a moment of panic, and said: "A man's skills may not be able to match." ”

Deng Feng agreed very much, looking at the figure of the third lady who was not disobedient among all the men, he sighed in his heart: It's a pity that such a good third lady can't be the princess of Jing'an.

The courtyard was bustling, and Zhang Wen, who had been guarding the outer gate, came to report: "There are a few officials outside, and the small ones look like Kyoto guards." ”

Everyone's hearts tightened, and Shen Qihuan said unhurriedly: "Oh, my father found it, he was afraid that I would be bullied, so he went to Kyoto to find a helper for me early in the morning." ”

Everyone looked at each other again, afraid that people would bully her? No matter how you looked, she was the only one who bullied others, and shouldn't she ask for a helper? Why did she find Kyoto Wei as soon as she found it?

Shen Quehuan bowed his hand to the people in the martial arts hall and said goodbye: "I really bothered you today, Deng Feng will come to the hall tomorrow to settle your wages, and I will be free another day, I will invite you heroes to drink in the hall." ”

This is full of Jianghu gas, and everyone who says it is more comfortable.

Yao Da said boldly: "The salary is free, please drink is a must, when the time comes, our brothers will slaughter the third lady well, okay?"

"It's easy to say, then the salary will be exchanged for wine money, and when the time comes, I will buy wine and food and go to the martial arts hall to find you. ”

After some politeness, the talents of the martial arts hall left one after another, and more than a dozen people from Kyoto Wei rushed in again, all of them bowed to Shen Quehuan, and the first one was a commander surnamed Fang, who was wearing a casual dress, and stood tall in the middle of the courtyard, with a murderous awe-inspiring aura: "This is the third lady......? Well...... Sit awhile. ”

Chen Xu was surprised and at a loss, he saw Kyoto Wei walking on the street on weekdays, his legs and stomach trembled unconsciously, and now more than a dozen people gathered in the courtyard gloomily, and the sweat on his back was about to soak the cotton clothes.

Shen Quehuan regained her slim and ladylike appearance, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and Fuli said: "The newly bought house of the little girl is always not peaceful, and the little girl is very grateful that you can come to sit in town." ”

Chen Xu made a "bang" in his cavity, and the cold sweat flowed faster.

Deng Feng beckoned all the officers and soldiers to the house to drink tea, and Commander Fang asked Chen Xu about the whole matter, but because Chen Xu only had his teeth chattering in front of Commander Fang, he couldn't even speak clearly, or Shen Quehuan took care of the duty of explaining.

Just as they said that they "invited the Xu family away" in the morning, there was a "bang" at the gate of the outer courtyard, and then twenty or thirty people rushed in, and there were also soldiers dressed in the military department's official mansion, and standing in front of these people was a middle-aged woman with a long face, yellow complexion, and a golden hairpin, who must be Mrs. Xu.

She was supported by two tall maids left and right to sit on a stone bench, and her bright eyes glanced at each other before speaking, "I've heard of robbing gold and silver, and it's the first time I've heard that I want to rob a house, and the title deed and deed of this house are in my hands, I want to see who can snatch this house from my hands?"

Commander Fang only obeyed the order to see the courtyard, but he didn't expect to meet the person who found fault, he was about to get up, but saw the third lady give him a slightly calm look, Commander Fang paused, looked back at the subordinates who were already in place in the door curtain and gave a "slow" look.

The little guy behind the third lady walked to the front of the steps first and shouted: " When our lord bought the yard, Mr. Xu said that the deed was stolen by thieves, and took our lord to the household department to check the file, the deed and the title deed were written on the head of Xu Yan Xu's master, and the official of the household department also testified to us, the money house first changed hands, and the land deed and other Shuchuan Xu clan issued Xu Yan Xu's identity letter, and the household department made up the land deed and the house deed, and then transferred it to the name of the Chen Mansion, and also issued the house deed, the previous one was torn up by your people, but it doesn't matter, our lord has sent someone to make up for one yesterday. ”

Deng Feng took out the deed document from his arms and showed it to everyone, but he just made a "lift" action, and a girl next to Mrs. Xu suddenly stepped forward and grabbed it, tearing it to pieces. "Don't put a mouth on the part of the household, a mouth of the government to press us, the title deed and the house deed are in the hands of our wife, why should he do something else? I don't look like a local, right? I can warn you, in the territory of the capital, it is better to be careful to sail a 10,000-year-old ship. ”

"You ......" Deng Feng was also speechless, he had never been wrong with the sharp-toothed little girl.

Commander Fang's eyes fell on Shen Qihuan, and when he saw her walking lightly, he directly swept past this arrogant slave and maid, and said to Mrs. Xu: "Mrs. Xu, you can take a closer look, this torn deed can be pressed on the official seal of the household department, there seems to be such a clause in the law of my dynasty, those who maliciously tear up the official deed documents will be imprisoned and punished with a cane." She glanced at the maidservant, although there was a huge difference in height between the two, but in front of Shen Qihuan, the maid gradually put away her domineering charm, and couldn't help but hide behind Mrs. Xu.

Mrs. Xu stood up and scolded the maid: "Useless things, what are you afraid of if you tear up things, our uncle is not also on an errand in the sixth department." She twisted her old waist, walked to the side of several guards wearing the uniforms of the military department, and turned her head to Shen Qihuan and the others: "Who said that the official document was torn by us." Several soldiers testified that it was obviously torn up by this little girl. She pointed her finger towards Shen Qihuan, and then raised a golden peony on the side of her sideburns, and said with a smile: "The little girl also said just now, tearing up the official document will lead to a big prison and a board." ”

The old man's furrowed expression looked straight and cautious, which made Shen Qihuan think of the poisonous snake spitting letters. She couldn't help but wonder in her heart, if Miss Xu Biao was her daughter, it would be good to say that she was not like her, but if she was touched by three points of her temperament, she would definitely be a snake and scorpion.

Shen Qihuan said "oh?", walked back to the front of the stairs and stood up, and said solemnly: "This official is obviously torn apart by your slave maid, since Mrs. Xu's eyes are not good, I have to say that we tore it, and the little girl is also a fool, well......" She seemed to think seriously, and turned her head sideways for a while and said: "The little girl thinks that this official document should be torn by Mrs. Xu." ”

The corners of Commander Fang's mouth rose slightly, shaking his head and smiling bitterly, with a helpless look of "Miss's words are naturally the most correct".

The smile on Mrs. Xu's face was gone, she was used to being ignored by her husband at home, so she was very sensitive to the ignorance of others, and now seeing that Shen Qihuan didn't put herself in her eyes at all, a group of hearts rushed up, and immediately sent to the officer of the Ministry of War, "A few officials, don't take this girl to fill the prison of the Ministry of War." ”

The sky was gloomy, like a gloomy lead cloud overhead, and no one on the steps moved, including Chen Xu, everyone's face was solemn.

Several soldiers in the military department obviously often help Mrs. Xu with errands, and after listening to Mrs. Xu's words, it was as if they had received a military order, and they drew their knives out of their sheaths one after another, and forced everyone on the steps step by step.

At the same time, I only heard a shock from Commander Fang's chest: "Out!"

The atmosphere was suddenly suffocated, as if a thousand waves of qi rushed out of the ear room next to it, and more than a dozen Kyoto guards came out one by one, and the scene seemed to be a large army.

The so-called official errands of the Ministry of War, although they are famous, eat idle, and these people are recruited from Kyoto Prefecture and change posts every three years. Most of these guards will be promoted to catch fast and then distributed to the yamen of various states and counties, as long as they are innocent and willing to spend thirty taels of silver, they can donate a soldier's idle post in the six yamen.

The Kyoto Guard was led by the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and every soldier was trained by the elite military schools of the five large battalions in Dayue.

Therefore, these guards brought by Mrs. Xu were already as dead as ashes when they saw the black uniform of Kyoto Wei Xuan, and some even lost their sabers and squatted on the ground like prisoners.
