Chapter 268: The Big Man
"It's hard to say, maybe it's an assassin from Beiliang, maybe it's Zhang Huatian's people...... In short, we must not take it lightly now, it is very likely that we have been targeted by someone since we entered the city......" Xiao Jingcong frowned, and said to Yan Zixi with a worried look.
Yan Zixi also nodded when she heard this, "I know, Jing Cong." It's all my fault tonight, and if I hadn't insisted on running out into the crowd to see the excitement, I wouldn't have ......."
Before Yan Zixi finished speaking, she was gently covered by Xiao Jingcong, Xiao Jingcong smiled dotingly, and said in her mouth: "Xi'er, don't worry, as long as you are safe and sound, but next time you want to go where you can't be silent, you must discuss with your husband, and your husband will take you with you." ”
"Yes, Jingcong, you're so nice!" Yan Zixi opened her arms as she spoke, and hugged Yan Zixi tightly.
The two of them stayed warm for a long time, and Xiao Jingcong asked with concern, "Xi'er, you are also tired for a day, you have to rest well, and you will go out to investigate when you get up early tomorrow." ”
"Well, okay, listen to you, Jingcong." Yan Zixi answered, and then went to bed with Xiao Jingcong.
……
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Yan Zixi woke up from her sleep, yawned, and opened her eyes to see that Xiao Jingcong was sitting at the table looking at the building distribution map of Cloud City. Yan Zixi got up and walked over, said hello to Xiao Jingcong, and then hugged him from behind, and said sweetly: "Jingcong looks serious, I like it so much!" ”
"Xi'er, don't make trouble, have you gone to see if General Sun Li from the other door has returned?" Xiao Jingcong sneered and said to Yan Zixi.
"Hmph, Jingcong, you are so bold that you dare to instruct me to do things?" Yan Zixi scolded angrily, but still obediently pushed the door, came to the corridor, knocked lightly on the door of General Sun Li's guest room, and called a few times without any reason, presumably he didn't return all night.
Yan Zixi walked back and reported to Xiao Jingcong, "Jingcong, it's so strange, General Sun has been out all night, why hasn't he come back yet?" Could it be that there is some kind of trouble? ”
Xiao Jingcong put down the map, put it in his pocket, got up and comforted Yan Zixi, "Xi'er, don't worry too much, General Sun Li is good, it's okay to protect yourself, we just need to wait quietly." You're hungry, wash up and let's go downstairs for breakfast. ”
"Mmmm, okay......" Yan Zixi responded, and then ran to the dresser to briefly freshen up and dress up, still changing into the men's clothes. After all, it is more convenient to go out or men's clothing.
……
After cleaning up, Xiao Jingcong and Yan Zixi came downstairs to eat breakfast, and heard the surrounding diners talking about the upcoming war.
"Hey, did you hear that? It seems that the imperial court has sent Prince Xiao from the Zhenguo General's Mansion to come to support, and he also brought 100,000 troops! ”
"Really, really? 100,000 troops...... Is it hard to beat Beiliang really to hit us? ”
"Who knows! However, the imperial court has sent Prince Xiao here, and it seems that he should attach great importance to this war......"
"Alas, I'm afraid that when Prince Xiao comes, he won't be able to ask for any good fruit to eat...... Beiliang has been planning for a long time this time, and he has also colluded with Yuan Xia in the west, I am afraid that Xiao Wang Ye will also eat a closed door......"
"Don't talk nonsense, Prince Xiao is both wise and brave, with him personally leading the troops, he will definitely be able to win the battle and save us from fire and water! Come on, let's take this toast as a celebration of the arrival of Prince Xiao......"
Those diners talked about the war and mentioned Xiao Jingcong, but Yan Zixi followed their words, drinking porridge and eating vegetables there, and didn't seem to care so much, just smiled and whispered to Xiao Jingcong: "Jingcong, these people seem to be quite optimistic about you!" ”
"It's just a rumor in the market, I don't care about it." Xiao Jingcong's face was expressionless, and he took a bite of steamed buns, as if he was thinking about something else.
At this moment, a few big men suddenly broke in outside the door, seeing that they were dressed very rough and savage, they didn't seem to be locals, and as soon as they entered the door, they kicked over a table and chairs, and shouted for the shopkeeper to hurry up and send some food.
The other diners around saw that the big men were not good, so they immediately finished paying the money and left the inn in a gloomy manner, for fear of getting into trouble.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he could only tell the shopkeeper to hurry up and send the good wine and meat to those big men. Let's do it
Xiao Jingcong and Yan Zixi were still sitting in a relatively biased position, so those big men didn't care about them, they uncorked the wine by themselves, filled a few large bowls, and while drinking wine, they were eating meat, and they were still discussing something in their mouths.
After listening carefully, Xiao Jingcong and Yan Zixi seemed to hear the words of Beiliang, and the two of them were immediately shocked, could it be that these people are also from Beiliang?
Just when Xiao Jingcong and Yan Zixi were suspicious, there seemed to be some conflict on the table over there, Yan Zixi turned her eyes and looked over, only to see that the big man headed by the boss had already picked up the shopkeeper, slapped him in the face fiercely, and scolded angrily in his mouth: "Dog, what kind of wine did you give Lao Tzu?!" It's like water, isn't it selling fake wine to trick people! ”
"Guest officer, how dare I? I'm open to business, how can I sell fake wine! Maybe it's because the guest officer's alcohol is good, but this ordinary degree of wine is not suitable for the guest officer's taste......"
"Whew! Dare to quibble with Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu looks treacherous when he sees you, he must have hurt a lot of people, tell you, you want Lao Tzu to make a copper plate for today's wine money and rice money! After saying that, he beckoned a few brothers next to him who had already eaten wine and meat to prepare to leave the place.
When the shopkeeper saw that they wanted to eat white food, he was already as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and he cried with a sad face, and begged bitterly: "Guest officer, you can't do this!" You drank my wine and ate my flesh, how can you not give money......"
"Lao Tzu just won't give it, what can you do with me? If you have the ability, you can report to the official! The big man was arrogant, and he didn't take the shopkeeper's words to heart at all, and was about to go out, but the shopkeeper hugged his thighs desperately.
"Guest officer, I beg you, just give me some money...... It's not easy to open a small shop......"
"Fuck off! I don't know if I'm alive or dead! The big man directly raised his foot and kicked the shopkeeper over, the shopkeeper spit out a mouthful of blood, almost fainted, Yan Zixi saw this, he really couldn't sit still, regardless of Xiao Jingcong's dissuasion, he hurriedly ran to the shopkeeper, and asked with concern: "Shopkeeper, do you want it?" ”
While Yan Zixi was checking the shopkeeper's injuries, she saw that the shopkeeper's ribs had been broken several times, and his lungs had also been injured, which showed the strength of the other party's feet. Yan Zixi gritted her teeth violently, raised her head and pointed at the big men who were about to leave the inn, and scolded angrily: "You don't have to eat white food, why are you still so arrogant and arrogant, and injured the shopkeeper, do you still have the royal law in your eyes?" ”
As soon as Yan Zixi said this, the big men were stunned as if they were electrocuted, and then slowly turned around to look at Yan Zixi. At this moment, Yan Zixi is still dressed as a man, and those people didn't see Yan Zixi's daughter, thinking that she was a little boy with oily hair and a pink face, even if she didn't give him a good look.
"Stinky boy, what did you just say?"
Yan Zixi relied on Xiao Jingcong by her side, but there was no fear on her face, "I said, do you still have a royal law in your eyes?" It's not too much to eat white food, hurt people again, and catch all of you! ”
"Catch me?!" When the big man in the lead heard Yan Zixi's words, he suddenly laughed loudly, "Catch me?!" Hahahaha, did you hear that? This stupid boy actually said he wanted to arrest me? ”
The brothers behind the big man also laughed and laughed with them, and their mouths mocked and ridiculed.
"Big brother, this stupid boy hasn't figured out the situation yet, has he?"
"Listening to his accent, he doesn't seem to be a local, I'm afraid I don't know the rules here......"
The big man didn't plan to leave, seeing such a handsome but unknowingly "silly boy" Yan Zixi, it seemed to attract the interest of the big man, and he wanted to have a good time with Yan Zixi, and then led his subordinates to Yan Zixi, and wrapped Yan Zixi and the shopkeeper together.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the shopkeeper bothered his body and persuaded Yan Zixi: "Guest officer, go quickly, it's none of your business, or don't offend them for me......"
"Hmph, I just can't get used to seeing such a bully who is bullying, obviously eating white food, not giving money, and even beating people, it's a shame for our Da Xiao!"
"Hahahaha, talk to Lao Tzu about the king's law, I'm afraid you haven't woken up yet, right? In this realm of three things, Lao Tzu is the king! The big man glanced at Yan Zixi, saw that he had an extraordinary bearing, and his dress was also of the highest quality, knowing that he was a rich family, and then asked: "Lao Tzu sees that you are in good shape, you must have a lot of silver in your pocket, right?" Boy, borrow some silver to spend flowers, uncle, I will spare you today. ”
Heh, has it been changed to Ming robbery now? It's just scum scum!
Yan Zixi suppressed the anger, Tie Qing looked at the big man with a blue face, and said coldly: "Hmph, if you let me borrow it, I will borrow it?" Ben Gongzi is to lend to cats and dogs, and he will not lend them to bullies and scum like you! Saying that, Yan Zixi took another sip.
When the big man heard this, he immediately became angry, pointed at Yan Zixi, and the muscles at the corners of his mouth twitched, "Stinky boy, are you tired and crooked?" Dare to talk to Lao Tzu like this, if you don't teach you a lesson today, I'm afraid you don't know how powerful your Black Tiger grandfather is! ”
