Seeing that a group of people were about to rush up, Patch hurriedly blocked in front of Han Zhan and yelled at those ruffians: "Stop, do you know who he is?" ”

The words of the patch made Xiao Hu's subordinates stop, they saw that Han Zhan was gorgeously dressed and had an extraordinary aura, and at first glance he was not an ordinary person, and everyone did not dare to act rashly, so they could only look at Xiao Hu for help.

Xiao Hu, who was full of meat, glared at his subordinates, and said angrily: "Call me, if something goes wrong, I will be responsible." ”

Hearing Xiao Hu say this, Han Zhan sneered, and then said to the guards who were already preparing around: "Do it, don't kill people." After speaking, he took a step back and protected Cai Yan behind him.

Xiao Hu thought that Han Zhan begged him not to beat him to death, and grinned: "Don't worry, little white face, my people won't beat you to death, at most break your hands and feet." Then he yelled at his men, "Break his hands and feet, don't kill him." ”

But Xiao Hu soon realized that something was wrong, and a group of men in civilian clothes rushed over from the side, and put down several of his most powerful subordinates with three strokes and five divisions. He turned his head and wanted to run, but where could he escape, Han Zhan's guards knocked him to the ground with a few punches.

At this moment, Xiao Hu knew that he had encountered a hard stubble, he knew the truth that a good man would not suffer the loss in front of him, and hurriedly knelt in front of Han Zhan, kowtowed again and again and said: "Son, son, spare life, the little one has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, offended the son, beg the son to spare the little one." ”

Without waiting for Han Zhan to express his opinion, someone suddenly shouted at the door: "What's wrong?" Then someone tried to break in, but two guards standing at the door hurriedly stopped him.

Han Zhan was more familiar when he heard the voice, and when he looked sideways, he recognized that the person who was going out of the door and wanted to break in was actually Ge Bei, the chef in Zigu's shop. He hurriedly ordered the guards at the door, "Let him in!" ”

Ge Bei, who was holding a bag of things in his arms, walked through the lobby, walked in front of Zigu, threw the bag in his hand to the ground, grabbed Zigu's arms, and asked nervously, "Zigu, what's wrong?" ”

When Ge Bei's hands were on Zi Gu's arms, Han Zhan found that Zi Gu's body trembled for a moment, then took a step back, broke free from Ge Bei's hands without moving, and said lightly: "Uncle Xiao came to the store to make trouble, but fortunately, Tinghou was here and subdued him." ”

When Ge Bei heard Zigu say this, he noticed Han Zhan who was standing on the side, and hurriedly knelt down on his knees and kowtowed to him: "The little one has seen Tinghou!" ”

And when Xiao Hu and his subordinates on the side learned that the person they just wanted to teach was actually Han Zhan, the Muslim of Jizhou and the Marquis of Zhangshui Pavilion, they were so frightened that they were so frightened that they kowtowed desperately, begging Han Zhan for mercy: "Tinghou spare his life, Tinghou spare his life!" ”

Han Zhan looked at the guards standing aside and instructed them, "Leave two people to continue to follow us, and the rest of the people will send these ruffians to the prison and imprison them." ”

Cai Yan was frightened and had no intention of continuing to shop, so he whispered to Han Zhan: "Tinghou, the slave family doesn't want to go shopping anymore, let's go home." Seeing that Cai Yan was reluctant to go shopping, Han Zhan smiled and nodded in agreement.

Since the mutton soup and pastry had just come up, before they could eat it, they were stirred up by Xiao Hu's ruffian, so Zigu hurriedly ordered Xiaobai to take a food box, put everything in it, and then handed it over to the patch.

When Han Zhan was leaving the mutton soup restaurant, he suddenly remembered something, so he stopped, turned his head and asked Zigu who sent him out: "Zigu, Benhou has something I want to ask you." ”

Zi Gu hurriedly lowered her eyebrows and said, "Tinghou, please ask!" ”

"The taste of your mutton soup is fresher than that of others, is there any trick?" After Han Zhan asked this, he realized that he was asking a little too recklessly, this was Zigu's exclusive secret, if it was leaked, it would have an impact on her business in the future, so he hurriedly added: "If you feel inconvenient, you don't need to say it." ”

Zigu smiled faintly and said: "Actually, there is no trick, that is, when boiling mutton soup, put a fish in it, and the mutton soup can be delicious and abnormal." ”

Regarding the secret recipe that Zigu said, Han Zhan didn't think there was anything special. But Cai Yan next to him suddenly said: "It turned out to be 'fish and sheep are fresh'." ”

"Fish and sheep are fresh?" Han Zhan repeated Cai Yan's words, and asked puzzledly, "I don't know what it means?" ”

Cai Yan said with a smile: "According to legend, Peng Zu's youngest son Xi Ding likes to fish. Peng Zu was afraid that he would drown, and resolutely refused to allow it. One day, when his son came home from fishing, Peng Zu was not there, and asked his mother to cut open the mutton that was being stewed and hide it in it. When Peng Zu came back to eat mutton, he felt very delicious, so he concocted it in the same way, and produced a dish of 'sheep side Tibetan fish'.

The cooking method of this dish is to cook an appropriate amount of mutton and fish, as well as the secret soup stock, the fish is already a very fresh and fragrant food, but also add the thin as a piece of mutton slices, and then boil into a pot of soup, exude an attractive fragrance, neither the smell of mutton, nor the fishy smell of fish, but also the effect of helping yang and replenishing essence and blood. ”

Cai Yan's words made Zigu's eyes widen, and she said in surprise: "The young lady is really well-informed, and she actually knows my family's signature dishes. That's right, the reason why my mutton soup is more delicious than others is that it is according to the secret recipe handed down by Peng Zu. ”

Speaking of this, Zi Gu looked at Han Zhan again and said, "Tinghou should remember that he saw a girl named Xiaofan in my store?" Seeing Han Zhan nodding in affirmation, she continued, "Xiao Fan is specially here to send me fish." ”

After Zi Gu's explanation, Han Zhan immediately thought of the little girl who had fallen into the country and the city, and had not seen Zi Gu since she sold her shop to raise money to atone for Ge Bei's sins. I don't know if I will be able to see this beautiful girl again when I have the opportunity to return to Sheguo County in the future.

Seeing Han Zhan standing at the door in a daze, Cai Yan pulled the sleeve of his robe and said in a low voice, "Tinghou, let's go back." ”

When Han Zhan and Cai Yan turned around and walked towards the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, whether it was the patch behind them or the guards sent by Chen Zhi, they all breathed a sigh of relief. At least the experience in the mutton soup restaurant made them all realize that it was not possible to sit back and relax in Jizhou City, even if there were no assassins sent by Yuan Shao, but those ruffians and hooligans were enough to give people a headache.

As soon as Han Zhan returned to the Prefecture Governor's Mansion, he instructed the patch who followed behind, "Go and invite Xun Changshi and Mr. Guo to my study, I have something important to discuss with them." After sending away the patch, he said to Cai Yan with a smile on his face, "Zhaoji, you must be tired after walking for so long, I'll send you back to your room to rest first." ”
