Qujiang is located in the southeast of Chang'an County, more than 20 miles away from Guozijian, this will Zong Xiu sit in the carriage, lazily leaning against the window, one hand supporting the window, chin pillowed on the arm to look out, and whistle from time to time, in a very good mood.

Isn't it just a good mood?

traveled to the Tang Dynasty, mixed into the Guozi Prison as a master, didn't have to take much class, had a lot of money, and was accompanied by beauties at home, which was many times more comfortable than his life in the later life.

The only regret is that there is no mobile phone, computer, Internet or anything in this era, except for joking with Yi and listening to a song or something, it is boring.

The carriage squeaked and creaked along the way, and soon went out of the south gate.

It was already past noon, out of Chang'an City, the population became scarce, except for the occasional few idle households entering and leaving the city, there was nothing.

Zong Xiu couldn't help but feel bored, and closed the curtain of the car window and shouted, "Brother coachman, hurry up, I'm still waiting to go back for lunch." ”

"Yes, sir."

The farmer who drove the cart had a whip in his hand, and it landed on the horse's hips pulling the cart lightly and heavily.

"Hiss......"

The motley horse pulling the cart neighed lightly, and trotted all four hooves.

The carriage ran for a while, turned a corner, and went down the Qujiang River, when the sound of swift horses' hooves suddenly came from behind, and someone shouted: "Bold! Who dares to follow the master of the country's eunuch? ”

The voice was full of breath, and the shouting was very loud.

In the carriage, Zong Xiu, who was originally dozing against the window, was instantly sleepy.

"What's the situation? Someone stalking me? ”

Zong Xiu hurriedly peeked out of the window of the car, and saw Jiang Chen chasing after him, and there were several big men on horseback not far behind his carriage.

Xu was called by Jiang Chen, and several big men scattered in an instant.

Among them, there was an unlucky guy who was slapped by Jiang Chen with a horizontal scabbard when he was on the wrong horse, and he was directly slapped to the ground.

Without waiting to get up, Jiang Chen pointed at him with a knife again: "Say, who sent you!" ”

"If you want to kill, you can kill, why bother talking."

The man was also stiff, his eyes closed, and he stretched his neck and waited for death.

Zong Xiu sat in the carriage, his eyes narrowed slightly, and after hesitating slightly, he shouted, "Jiang Wuchang, let him go." ”

"Your Excellency!"

"Let him go!"

Zong Xiu shouted again, and Jiang Chen put away the knife.

The man who fell to the ground quickly got up, and after glancing at Zong Xiu viciously, he went straight to the horse that was stopped in the distance to gnaw grass, turned over and fled quickly.

Jiang Chen hurried to the side of the car and said nervously: "My lord, those people are secretly following you, they must be bad people with bad intentions, why do you want to let them go?" ”

The two of them were separated by a carriage, and it was not convenient to speak, Zong Xiu said with a smile: "Jiang Wuchang, thank you very much today, go, come home with me, I invite you to drink." ”

Zong Xiu shouted to the coachman again: "Brother, go back." ”

It was the Jiangjiazhuang farmer who drove the car, and he was shaving in the ground with his back to the loess on weekdays, and he had never seen this face, his face would be pale, and his hand holding the horsewhip was trembling, and he said worriedly: "Adult, small one...... The small family still has a wife and children to support. ”

“……”

Zong Xiu understands the worries of the Zhuang man, this is for fear of getting into trouble, but he is now halfway through, and he can't catch the car, why should he go back?

Jiang Chen turned over and dismounted, and walked to the front of the car: "Don't be afraid, Sanbo, in this way, you ride my horse back, and I will drive the car for the adults." ”

"Uh-huh, then I'll go first."

The farmer jumped out of the carriage and rode away.

Jiang Chen smiled and said, "My lord, my third uncle is a little timid, please forgive me." ”

"It's okay, if I encounter this kind of thing, I will definitely run faster than him."

"My lord laughed."

Jiang Chen snorted, put the knife beside him, and waved the whip skillfully.

On the way back, Zong Xiu asked curiously: "Chief Jiang, shouldn't you be on duty?" How did you find out about them? ”

Jiang Chen was grabbing the reins to catch the car, and when he heard the inquiry, he responded: "I saw a few sneaky merchants lingering at the gate in the morning, and I didn't care about it at that time. But as soon as you left, they all collected their stalls and followed the adult's carriage. The little ones were worried that they would not be good for the adults, so they followed. ”

"Really?"

Zong Xiu said perfunctorily.

Jiang Chen said: "My lord, why did you want to let them go just now?" If they are secretly following you, they must be gangsters with bad intentions, even if they don't ask them, they should be sent to Jingzhao Mansion to see officials. ”

In the carriage, Zong Xiu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Don't you want to be me?" I'm afraid that it's okay not to ask some words, but it's more troublesome to really ask something. ”

"Didn't you offend someone, my lord?" Jiang Chen asked nervously.

Although Zong Xiu guessed some possibilities, he was not sure, even if he was sure, it was not easy to tell Jiang Chen, and said casually: "Who knows, I just arrived in Chang'an, and I shouldn't have offended anyone." ”

The two chatted while hurrying, and when they arrived at the Qujiang courtyard, only Yi Chengqing was holding the silk and yarn cut given by Lao Li, as if he was making clothes.

Jiang Chen saw that his wife was not there, so he pushed it to leave.

Zong Xiu pulled Jiang Chen's sleeve and said with a smile: "Jiang Wuchang, I won't say more kind words to you." You can go back now, and come to my place for dinner in the evening. Brother, I have not been mentioned by you since I arrived in the country, and today I helped me repel the little tail that was tracking, why do you want to invite you to a drink, and bring your sister-in-law with you at night, and you are not allowed to refuse. ”

"Adult ......"

Zong Xiu pretended to be angry and said: "If you want to come over, you will come, and then I will be angry, do you want my sister-in-law to help cook at my house?" ”

"Well, thank you, then."

Jiang Chen arched his hand a little embarrassed and drove the carriage away.

Seeing Jiang Chen walking away, Yi asked nervously, "Childe, you were followed just now?" ”

"It's okay, they were all beaten away by Brother Jiang."

After Zong Xiu finished speaking, he laughed again.

"Girl, your eyes are really poisonous, Brother Jiang is really a good man. You didn't see it just now, a person who was following me was slapped to the ground by Brother Jiang with a scabbard, and he pulled out a knife and pointed it at his neck. Tsk, that's a lot of work right away. ”

It was the first time for Zong Xiu to see someone riding a horse and doing it, so he naturally couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart.

The moment Jiang Chen captured that person was much more exciting than what he had watched on TV. There are no bells and whistles, it all depends on reflexes and speed.

Different from Zong Xiu's excitement, Yi poured into shame and blamed himself: "It's all because of me that I let Gongzi get into trouble." ”

Zong Xiu rolled his eyes: "What nonsense, what does this matter have to do with you." Okay, let's go and see what else to eat in the kitchen, and I'll invite Brother Jiang's family to drink in the evening. ”

Since you want to invite someone to dinner, you must not wait for Jiang to come and do it.

Zong Xiu ignored Yi Chengqing's obstruction, personally rolled up his sleeves and ran to the kitchen to stew in a mess, while Yi Xiangqing sat under the stove and lit the fire, looking at Zong Xiu who was in a hurry, with a faint smile on his face.

When it was getting dark, Jiang Chen led Jiang over, and was about to let his wife go to the kitchen to cook, when he saw Zong Xiu running out with a gray face.

"Finally here, sit down, I'm ready for wine and food, don't be polite to me today, sit down and eat together."

"This ......"

Jiang Shi looked suspicious.

Jiang Chen said even more respectfully: "My lord, there is a great gift in ancient times, and women are not at the same table, since the meal is ready, I will let Neiko go back." ”

Zong Xiu snorted: "What are you going back to?" I don't have that rule in my house. Look at my girl, don't you eat with me every day? Everyone is coming, and no one is allowed to leave. Girl, go and pull my sister-in-law over. ”

The two members of the Jiang family sat down helplessly under the warm greeting of Zong Xiu and Yi Cheng.

said that there was no food for dinner, but it was just a pot of stewed meat, which was packed on several plates.

The four of them sat on the stone table under the tree in the courtyard and ate, easy to fall in love with it, and they were used to Zong Xiu's 'no rules'.

Jiang Chen and Jiang Shi are not used to it, they are a little restrained, they only drink a little when Zong Xiu toasts, and let them eat something.

Seeing this, how could Zong Xiu not know what happened to these two people.

The ancients had many rules and clear class levels.

But who is he?

As a traverser, Zong Xiu firmly believes in a truth: as long as you drink enough wine, nothing matters.

So Zong Xiu persuaded him to drink.

After drinking too much, the two of them slowly let go, the atmosphere eased, and everyone talked and laughed.

After Yi poured his heart, he went back to the house and hugged the pipa to play the accompaniment.

In the small courtyard on the bank of the Qujiang River, there was constant laughter, and there were bursts of pipa, which made Zong Xiu find a bit of a familiar taste.

Jiang Chen's eyes were drunk, and when he saw that his wife had drunk too much, he shouted loudly: "Madam, if you are drunk, go back first, this sect master will appreciate his face, I will not return if I am not drunk." ”

Zong Xiu also drank too much, and waved his hand with a smile: "Sister-in-law, go back, Brother Jiang will live with me today." ”

Jiang made a salute, walked out of the courtyard door leisurely, and walked home along the path.

"Come on, Brother Jiang, let's drink another one. Haha, you don't know, since I came to Chang'an, I feel comfortable drinking with you. ”

Zong Xiu picked up the wine bowl and drank it all again.

Jiang Chen was dazed by drinking, forgetting his humility for the time being, and proudly picked up the bowl and drank it with a "grunt", wiping his mouth: "My lord is also the most unofficial master I have ever seen." ”

"Haha, what kind of official shelf, it's all false."

Jong so laughed.

At the door of the main hall, Yi poured out his love and hugged the pipa, his slender jade fingers plucked the strings, and his two eyes were all staring at Zong Xiu with a bright smile.

The two drank for another half an hour, and Jiang Chen got up drunkenly and said, "Adults have a good amount of alcohol, it's convenient for me to go, and I'll come back to fight with adults later." ”

After speaking, Jiang Chen turned around and was about to walk out.

As soon as he turned around, he heard the sound of breaking the sky.

As soon as that sound came out, Jiang Chen, who was originally drunk, seemed to have been touched by a tense nerve, and instantly turned around and pounced.

"There are assassins! Be careful, adults! ”
