Chapter 287: Slightly inferior
Shang Chengxing.
A touch of ultramarine figure, walking leisurely. It was followed by two retinues who were also dressed in ultramarine, and as they walked, they pulled "Saihuhai", who was constantly screaming and resisting.
Wei Shaotang, who was dressed in a patina robe, was leading Yu Jiayu through the courtyard.
"Master Wei, you don't have to send it anymore. ”
In front of the gate, Yu Jiayu smiled slightly, and his attitude was gentle and polite.
Wei Shaotang smiled and said respectfully: "Then, 'Saihuhai' will have to work for adults." ”
Yu Jiayu nodded, as a farewell.
The thick wooden door slowly closed, and the smile on the corner of Wei Shaotang's mouth gradually faded.
He turned around, his expression grim and indifferent, a far cry from the gentleness he had used to face the Partridge.
"Fang Cai, who is the wind?"
Just a glimpse of it is an understatement, and it is terrifying.
The servant guarding the door knelt on the ground in fear, not daring to look into the eyes of Wei Shaotang, and his shoulders trembled uncontrollably, like branches blown by the wind in autumn.
"Yes, yes...... It's small. ”
He replied tremblingly, his face had already turned pale, because of fear, there was no trace of blood, and he reluctantly argued: "The hall and the hall master are gracious, and there are four people guarding the door on weekdays!"
When Wei Shaotang heard this, his white eyebrows tightened, fire erupted in his eyes, the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed, and his expression was hideous and terrifying.
In order to follow that person, he sent most of his elites, which caused Shang Chengxing to not even have enough people to guard the door.
However......
Taking a deep breath, closing his eyes and recuperating, he slowly stabilized his breath.
After a moment, Wei Shaotang slowly opened his eyes, and ordered the other servants in a cold tone: "Deal with it according to the rules." ”
- "Hall Master...... The hall master spares his life, spares his life!"
The servant guarding the door opened his eyes wide and begged for mercy with a loud voice.
However, the trembling voice was both frightened and depressed.
Wei Shaotang ignored it and walked straight to the hall.
Dereliction of duty is dereliction of duty.
He didn't want to hear any excuses.
If you are interested, it is better for those who are derelict in their duties to make their own decisions, so why bother yourself?
At this moment, in Wei Shaotang's heart, in addition to irritability, there is also a faint unwillingness.
Obviously, they are all the same people, his previous president, but he has never seen such annoyance.
……
"Ruan Da, get up. ”
Wei Shaotang sat at the table, and after saying this, he drank tea silently.
The face was gloomy.
Ever since the Pheasant arrived, it was Ruan Da who had been kneeling in the hall.
On that cloudy night, the only one who escaped from Lelang's trap.
He's almost once dead.
Therefore, even if his heart was beating so violently, even if Wei Shaotang's anger made him frightened and uneasy......
But compared to the sloppy shot that night, I escaped death.
Compared to that ghostly An Guohou......
It's nothing.
On the other side, after being disturbed for most of the day, Wei Shaotang finally calmed down his thoughts a little, rubbed his temples, and relieved his lingering headache.
Suddenly, he thought of a strange detail, and looked at Ruan Da suspiciously, refusing to let go of any clues.
"Lelangta...... Use the 'Heaven-Shattering Thunder' against you?"
Wei Shaotang asked.
"Yes. After An Guohou lit the letter, in an instant, the flames soared into the sky, like a scorching sun," Ruan Da raised his head, looked directly at Wei Shaotang, and replied firmly: "My subordinates are very sure, it must be 'earth-shattering thunder'." ”
Thinking of the sea of fire and blood that night, Ruan Da's shoulders couldn't help but tremble.
Wei Shaotang tilted his head and thought for a while, then sighed lightly.
Could it be that ...... "Earthquake Thunder" has been collected in Bianjing?
No.
Could it be ......
He shook his head and sighed again.
I can't find a clue all the time.
"Forget it, it's no wonder you...... You are trained by me, and he is ......" Wei Shaotang frowned and looked depressed.
Ruan Da was stunned in vain - what kind of wind and waves, the hall master has never seen it? Even if Yu Jiayu, who had just faced the Imperial City Division, he almost wore a goof, he was still not at ease, and he dispelled the other party's doubts while talking and laughing.
How could his old man have such a helpless moment?
After pausing for a while, Wei Shaotang said helplessly to Ruan Da: "I am slightly inferior, and of course you are also slightly inferior." ”
Just when Ruan Da didn't know how to answer, he suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps from the front yard.
The two of them turned their heads to see a "messenger" hurrying in.
- "The second hall master has a letter. ”
The "messenger" leaned into Wei Shaotang's ear and handed over a letter as he spoke.
Wei Shaotang frowned, took the letter, and the seal was impressively covered with a wax mark of a begonia pattern.
When he opened the envelope, there was no more than one page inside, but he read and read it, and his face was cloudy.
"Nguyen Da. ”
After pondering for a long time, Wei Shaotang called: "You set off immediately and go to Zhending Mansion." ”
"Hall Master, ......?"
Ruan Da looked suspicious.
"He's in Zhendingfu. ”
"An Guohou?"
Wei Shaotang nodded, the corners of his mouth tugged slightly, and said, "Xin Ji tracked it." ”
Ruan Da was silent.
It turned out that in addition to their 36 people and six groups of people, the hall master also had other arrangements.
"I've fought directly with Le Lang, but now it's only you......" Wei Shaotang took off the golden wrench on the thumb of his right hand, and gently pushed the back of it, and the wrench immediately rotated, revealing a delicate peony pattern. He pressed the "peony" on the ink on the side, and then extended it to the signature of the letter, packed it up, took the candle flame handed by the servant next to him, burned the wax mark of the begonia, and printed the "peony".
"You go to Haosheng to help Xin Ji, and you should make up for it. ”
Wei Shaotang handed the letter to Ruan Da, waved his sleeves, and motioned for him to hurry up.
Before Ruan Da could go far, Wei Shaotang shouted again: "Wait!"
"What does the hall master command?"
"You tell the old man ......"
Wei Shaotang opened his mouth, and suddenly stopped.
Ruan Da froze in place, waiting for his next step.
After a long time, I heard him sigh and said, "You tell him, don't underestimate the enemy." ”
……
Zhending House.
On the streets, the cold wind howled incessantly.
Sitting by the window on the second floor of Fujiang Building, I couldn't hear a trace of wind.
It's all because of the thick sheepskin felt hanging outside the window.
Inside, the fire is warm.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Zhending Mansion had to open as usual in a restaurant in Fujiang Building.
Even if the second floor is three or four times more expensive than the lobby, it is still full.
"Squeak-"
The carved ebony door was pushed open, and the shopkeeper squeezed out with difficulty with a copper kettle in one hand and two empty dishes in the other.
The sound of festive orchestral strings and the sweet chanting of geisha emanated from the private room.
In the corner by the window on the second floor, there is a table of people who have been paying attention to the "Yangtze River" private room without a trace.
This is the seventh time that the shopkeeper has entered and exited the "Yangtze River" private room.
Moments later......
- "Fugui roast chicken, jade shrimp balls, Huaishan stewed duck!"
The eighth.
The shopkeeper loudly announced the name of the dish, while holding the wooden plate with both hands, pushing the wooden door with his body, and entered the private room.
At the table by the window, Xin Ji squinted his eyes for a long time, and asked the entourage beside him, "Is the shopkeeper changing again?"
