Guangde North City, Zhou Mansion.
Zhou Wenzhu's mansion is located behind the hundred households, just separated by a wall.
Because he was in charge of the Jinyi Guard, Zhou Wenzhu rarely had guests at home, and even if someone gave him gifts, most of them left things and left.
But today, the guests from the Zhou Mansion stayed and drank tea.
"If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, the king commanded the envoy with a generous gift, I don't know what happened?" Sitting on the main seat, Zhou Wenzhu said indifferently.
Tai Xiwei commanded Wang Xiangzhen, who was sitting next to Zhou Wenzhu at this time.
Although he was five or six levels higher, his attitude towards Zhou Wenzhu at this time was very respectful, and he said with a smile: "Zhou Baihu, where is this, can't you and my brother move around if nothing happens?"
Liu Xiongshan, the commander of the next head, also said: "Besides, what we brought is not a generous gift, and I hope Lord Zhou will not dislike it!"
It's okay to listen to this, he and Wang Xiangzhen don't have much friendship, and they must have something to ask for this time.
Since Wang Xiangzhen doesn't say it now, Zhou Wenzhu won't take the initiative to ask again, he has time and these two people.
"Zhou Baihu, how was the wine I gave you last time?"
"If you can still enter, brother, I'll send you some more......"
"It's still a ......"
In this way, the three of them chatted for half an hour about these useless words, so that Zhou Wenzhu had to admire the patience of these two people.
But in the end, it was Liu Xiongshan who opened his mouth and asked: "Dare to ask my lord, after that Director Hu checked our guard, he didn't know what he found?"
This is a very straightforward question, anyway, this kind of thing has happened in the past, and Liu Xiongshan feels that there is no need to hide it.
But then he said: "If there is a problem, let me know in advance, and we can go down and rectify it strictly, so as not to embarrass the adults in the capital!"
These words were high-sounding, and he also took out the commander of the envoy as a disguise, but Liu Xiongshan still asked for a fig leaf for himself.
It turned out to be a ...... to explore Hu Weide's situation Looking at Wang Xiangzhen, who was drinking tea, Zhou Wenzhu said secretly in his heart.
Although they made quite adequate preparations some time ago, Wang Xiangzhen and others still had no bottom in their hearts, so they found Zhou Wenzhu here.
"Master Hu is on an errand for the Ministry of War, and our 100 households are only sending people to guard, and we don't know about the investigation!"
What he said was the truth, Zhou Wenzhu learned from the lieutenant below, and knew that Chen Xiaoting ordered his subordinates not to participate in the whole investigation.
"I hope you two will forgive me, Zhou can't help you!" Zhou Wenzhu said in a flat tone.
After Wang Xiangzhen and Liu Xiongshan looked at each other, they both found unwillingness in each other's eyes, and they felt that Zhou Wenzhu was a prevarication.
But just as the two of them were about to speak, they saw the little flag officer Wu Ming appear outside the lobby, knelt down on one knee and said, "My lord, there is something important to report for your humble position!" ”
Seeing Wu Ming's hurried tone, Zhou Wenzhu knew that something was happening, so he said, "What......'s the matter?"
Wu Ming said: "Chen Xiaoting broke into the Lin Family Medicine Hall with people, and Zhang Zongqi also came over with a large number of people, and I will report that they are facing each other in the medical hall!" ”
The prejudice in Wu Ming's words can be said to be obvious, although he did not say it explicitly, but the meaning was that Chen Xiaoting was picking quarrels and provoking trouble.
It is not surprising that Wu Ming did this, and there was also a festival between him and Chen Xiaoting.
At the beginning of the arrest of the White Lotus Sect in Da Lian Village, Wu Ming and Wang Youtian teamed up to want to put the responsibility of letting Gao Shijie go on Chen Xiaoting's head.
Because of this matter, the beam that fell into the well at this time is just a gesture, why not do Wu Ming.
But when Wu Ming was happy in his heart, Zhou Wenzhu, who was still indifferent, had a very gloomy face at this time.
The small flag officer under his command actually had infighting, and it was embarrassing to spread it, wouldn't it make the higher authorities feel that he had no way to control him?
In addition, what made Zhou Wenzhu angry was that Wu Ming, a fool, actually said this in front of outsiders, which made Zhou Wenzhu feel even more embarrassed.
At this time, Wang Xiangzhen and Liu Xiongshan just picked up the teacup and drank the tea as if they hadn't heard it.
"Go...... Ordered Qu Zhenghao and Xu Chengwang to let them go and bring their subordinates back to the Hundred Households, the official wants to see how bold these two people are! Zhou Wenzhu said coldly.
Wu Ming didn't dare to slack off at this time, and hurriedly said: "Humble and orderly!" ”
After he retreated, Zhou Wenzhu said to Wang Xiangzhen: "Lord Wang, there are some things to deal with in this official yamen, so I can't accompany you!" ”
Wang Xiangzhen was also very interested at this time, so he said: "Since Lord Zhou has important matters, then the two of us won't bother much, and say goodbye!" ”
said goodbye, Zhou Wenzhu sent the two of them to the door, and watched Wang Xiangzhen and the two leave.
Although Fang Cai's matter was disturbing, he also blocked Wang Xiangzhen and the others for him, which was the only use for Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng to make trouble.
But now, Zhou Wenzhu's anger can't be faked.
In his impression, Chen Xiaoting is a person who understands the general situation, how could he suddenly make a move against the Lin family today? Zhou Wenzhu was puzzled.
Unlike ordinary people, although Zhou Wenzhu can be angry, he will never get carried away with anger.
"Someone, change clothes!" Zhou Wenzhu said in a deep voice, he wanted to go to the yamen to ask about the situation in person.
Although he asked Qu Zhenghao and Xu Chengwang to bring people back, if this matter was to be pressed, he had to take action himself.
On the other side, Qu Zhenghao and Xu Chengwang received the news at the same time, and Wu Ming was still very efficient in this matter.
Chen Xiaoting is Qu Zhenghao's subordinate, and Zhang Cheng is Xu Chengwang's subordinate, and the two of them are also very angry after hearing the report.
Even if there are contradictions in the hundred households, they all exist behind the scenes, but Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng made the contradictions public.
People value face, and the yamen attaches more importance to the system, Qu Zhenghao and the two can imagine how angry Zhou Wenzhu is now.
"Mr. Xu, this time you and I, I'm afraid you have to be ready to be trained!" Qu Zhenghao said in a deep voice.
Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng are their subordinates, and they must be responsible for what happened, and they can't escape.
I only heard Xu Chengwang say: "Let's rush over as soon as possible, so as not to cause a big disaster!" ”
According to Wu Ming, the people brought by Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng were all brought with knives.
If you don't suppress the two of them as soon as possible, if there is a weapon fight, no one will want to have a good life at that time.
Thinking of this, Qu Zhenghao was actually angry, Wu Ming, as his subordinate, didn't report the situation to him for the first time.
This phenomenon of overstepping the level of reporting is the most difficult to tolerate as a boss, which means that Wu Ming didn't take him to heart at all.
Of course, now is not the time to beat Wu Ming, and the most important thing is to put the dispute between Chen Xiaoting and Chen Xiaoting as soon as possible.
I only heard Qu Zhenghao scolding: "Why hasn't the horse been brought over yet?" ”
It was not close to the Lin family medicine hall from the yamen, and they could only arrive faster by riding a horse, and at this time, they were actually waiting for the horse to come over.
Because the order was urgent, after a while, an officer brought the horses, and the accompanying lieutenants were all in place.
"Let......'s go," Qu Zhenghao ordered, and more than a dozen people quickly headed for Nancheng.
…………
Nancheng, Lin Family Pharmacy.
"Stand back, stand back ......"
"Bastard, you let people go......"
The people who bought the medicine in the lobby were prostrate on the ground, for fear that they would be accidentally involved, while the guys at the pharmacy were arrested and were in the center of the confrontation between the captains and officers on both sides.
At this time, the atmosphere in the lobby was tense, but it was only the atmosphere like this, and no one dared to really show their swords.
The people below were pushing, grabbing, and insulting, but Chen Xiaoting and Zhang Cheng remained silent, just staring at each other face to face.
"Chen Xiaoting, don't go too far!" Zhang Cheng said sharply.
Chen Xiaoting was not to be outdone, and said coldly: "I must take people away, you can't stop them!" ”
Zhang Cheng said: "Then I must stop you?" ”
He was expressing his determination, but he saw Chen Xiaoting take a step forward, push Zhang Cheng on the shoulder with one hand and say, "You can try ......"
Being pushed by Chen Xiaoting like this, Zhang Cheng's body failed to stabilize, and he took three steps back before stopping.
Compared with Chen Xiaoting, Zhang Cheng's body bones are much thinner, and he feels a big loss of face when he is pushed away at this time.
Chen Xiaoting was repeatedly persecuted, and he Zhang Cheng was not a vegetarian, so he only listened to his order: "Rob people for me, who dares to stop them and greet them with their fists!" ”
Even if he was angry to the extreme, Zhang Cheng also saved a sense of reason, so that his subordinates could only use their fists.
Zhang Cheng's gang had already held their breath, and when they got the order from their boss, they were about to rush forward with their fists.
"Bastards, brothers...... Beat them up! ”
These people on the other side shouted, and Zhao Ying and the others were not to be outdone, and they all shouted: "Whoever dares to come over will beat him!" ”
Just when the people on both sides were about to fight, they heard the sound of horses' hooves outside, and then there was a loud shout: "Stop!" ”
