Chapter 287: Murder and Prestige

Cui Daoshu walked over to an empty table and slowly sat down, ready to start negotiating.

Han Xizai saw a low couch on the east wall of the house, so he walked over and lay down on it to close his eyes and recuperate.

A middle-aged official stood up and arched his hand to Cui Daoshu: "Cui Gongzi, I have heard of the name for a long time, this official is the Arsenal of the Ministry of War, thanks to Han Shangshu's love, he is in charge of this negotiation, please advise." ”

Cui Daoshu saw that this middle-aged man had a well-proportioned figure, a resolute face, and sharp eyes, he must be a strong-willed person, and he must not ignore it.

He also stood up and arched his hand with a smile: "Please ask Mr. Taifu up and down?" ”

The middle-aged official replied: "The official's surname is Jiang, and his name is Zhiqing." ”

Cui Daoshu asked, "What are those two words?" ”

"The 'ambition' of ambition, the 'clear' of the breeze."

Cui Daoshu suddenly felt that the sky was thundering, and his heart was like 10,000 grass and mud horses whistling by.

'Jiang Zhiqing', isn't this the name of the chairman of the committee in the later Republic of China? Did the chairman cross over too?

Cui Daoshu pretended to be casual and asked, "Brother Jiang, where are you from?" ”

"The official's hometown is Wuchang."

Cui Daoshu breathed a sigh of relief, it was not Fenghua Xikou.

Cui Daoshu asked again: "Brother Jiang, do you know Zhang Lingfu?" and Du Yuming, Chen Cheng, Wei Lihuang, Tang Enbo, Wang Yaowu......"

Cui Daoshu said a large list of names in one breath, confusing Jiang Zhiqing, who are these people? I don't know any of them. Is this Cui Gongzi crazy?

Everyone else in the room was dumbfounded, watching Cui Daoshu say a lot of names as if he was enchanted.

Han Xizai couldn't bear it anymore, so he coughed heavily.

He sat up and said to Cui Daoshu, who had stopped: "Cui Gongzi, everyone's time is very precious, let's start, otherwise it will drag on for a long time, and I won't be able to explain it to Your Majesty." ”

Cui Daoshu shook his head, it seems that this Jiang Zhiqing is not a traverser, but his name is the same as that of the chairman, it is just a coincidence.

He collected his mood, his fighting spirit ignited in his heart, and began to negotiate.

With this conversation, I forgot the time, and the day passed quickly.

At dusk, the servant brought dinner and lit candles.

Cui Daoshu ate absent-mindedly and felt tired. He spent the whole afternoon taking turns with these people, arguing back and forth to fight for his own best interests.

Han Xizai had already gone back to rest, but Jiang Zhiqing's eyes were still blazing, and he was not tired at all.

At this time, an assistant official walked in, lay in Jiang Zhiqing's ear, and whispered a few words.

After Jiang Zhiqing listened, he looked at Cui Daoshu and said, "Young Master Cui, the mighty general Zhang Renjian is here and wants to talk to you." ”

Cui Daoshu hurriedly stood up and said, "Everyone, I'll go to see the general, and I'll be here today." ”

He didn't wait for Jiang Zhiqing to answer, he 'whoosh', ran out of the house, and ran away.

Cui Daoshu ran for a while, and when he saw that no one was chasing him, he slowed down and walked towards Na Zhe's room.

When I entered the house, I saw Qin Wanlan serving Na Zhe to eat.

"Third brother, how are you feeling?"

Na Zhe smiled and said, "It's not bad, the wound is not so painful anymore, and I don't have a fever today." ”

Qin Wanlan asked, "Young Master Cui, have you eaten?" ”

"I've eaten it, thank you so much."

Na Zhe asked, "You talked to the officials of the Southern Tang Dynasty for a day?" ”

Cui Daoshu sighed: "Hey, it's really torturous!" There are a few people in Nantang who are difficult to entangle, and they are entangled in some trivial things and do not let go, and they almost collapsed Lao Tzu. ”

Na Zhe Le: "Old Seven, you should have passed the sixth level of Northeast dialect now, right?" A mouthful of 'Lao Tzu', and also said 'whole', that is our Shenyang vernacular. ”

Cui Daoshu smiled dumbly: "Isn't this all influenced by you, I've been with you for a long time, I haven't learned anything else, but the Northeast dialect has improved very quickly." ”

Qin Wanlan was confused when she heard it beside her, and she couldn't understand what the two brothers were saying at all.

Cui Daoshu chatted with Na Zhe for a while, and then asked, "What about Qi Jiuniang?" Why didn't you see her? ”

Qin Wanlan replied: "My sister went to find a place to bathe and change clothes, she has been taking care of her son for the past few days, and she has no time to take a bath." ”

Cui Daoshu nodded, "Third brother, the mighty general Zhang Renjian is here, I'll meet him in a while, what do you think?" ”

"GENERAL, THE OFFICIAL IS NOT SMALL, BUT HE HAS A REQUEST FOR US NOW, YOU SHOULD GIVE HIM A COLOUR SEE SEE."

Qin Wanlan couldn't help but laugh when she heard Na Zhe talking nonsense again.

Cui Daoshu shook his head and said: "Third brother, I have just passed level 6 in Northeast dialect, but my English is only level 4, and I have almost forgotten it after graduating from college for so many years." Don't test me. ”

Na Zhe tapped the bed board with his hand, "Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang, Lao Qi, don't forget to knock on the bamboo bar!" Lao Tzu can't take an arrow in vain, you have to at least solve the cost of marrying a daughter-in-law for Lao Tzu. ”

Cui Daoshu nodded: "Third brother, don't worry, Zhang Renjian is a big fat sheep now, and he will definitely let us slaughter it, just wait for my good news." ”

Cui Daoshu smiled at Qin Wanlan and turned around and walked out of the room.

Outside, a palace guard was waiting for Cui Daoshu, and when he saw him come out, he hurriedly greeted him, and said anxiously: "Cui Gongzi, the mighty general has been waiting for a long time, you can come with me." ”

Cui Daoshu thought about it and said: "No, I can't go to see him yet, I haven't eaten yet, let him wait." ”

What else did the palace guard soldier want to say, Cui Daoshu's face changed, and he asked sternly: "You are Your Majesty's palace guard, not the house slave of the Pucheng Zhang family." You have to think about it, it's nothing to anger me, if you let Zan Xin know that you are a groveling servant, you have to pick your skin! ”

Cui Daoshu Shi Shiran left, and the little soldier was full of grievances, but he didn't dare to attack, so he could only follow Cui Daoshu.

Cui Daoshu walked slowly towards the meditation room of the Taiqin monk, and halfway through, he thought of the sloppy appearance of the Taiqin monk, and knew that his residence must not be clean, so he couldn't help but lose his appetite, so he decided not to go.

He only knew Taiqin and Tailin in Qingliang Temple, and the other monks had no friendship with him. Cui Daoshu wandered aimlessly in Qingliang Temple, with a tail on his back, and followed him uneasily.

Cui Daoshu walked for a while, and when he saw that this little soldier was also pitiful, he was moved with compassion.

He turned around and said, "You can take me to see Zhang Renjian." ”

The little soldier was pardoned, and said gratefully: "Thank you Cui Gongzi, the little one will take you there immediately." ”

He led the way, and soon came to the door of a meditation room.

There were four men dressed as servants standing at the door, and when they saw Cui Daoshu, they all glared at him angrily.

Cui Daoshu smiled, and he sneered: "General Zhang is really majestic, and several house slaves are so domineering, so it doesn't matter if they don't see it, it saves Lao Tzu from being angry." ”

He turned around and left, which made the little soldier anxious, he caught up with Cui Daoshu, stopped in front of him, and begged bitterly:

"Cui Gongzi, you have a lot of adults, so don't be like these slaves. General Zhang has been waiting for a long time, so you can meet him. ”

Cui Daoshu shook his head and said: "I am a grass farmer, a mercenary businessman, and I don't have any stomach at all. General Zhang was of noble birth, and there was no need to deign to come to see him. The grass people can't climb Pucheng Zhang's family, so it's better not to see it. ”

At this moment, the door of the meditation room opened, and an old man about fifty years old walked out.

He said with a blank face: "Cui Gongzi, are you leaving like this?" Do you really want to be an enemy of our Pucheng Zhang clan? ”

Cui Daoshu sneered and said, "General Zhang, you may think that your Pucheng Zhang clan is very remarkable, and you are a wealthy family. But in Cui's eyes, you are just a bunch of local chickens and dogs. You sent someone to intercept and kill me and the third brother, and we have already formed a deep blood feud between us, and there is no room for negotiation.

Don't you think you're amazing? They sent 500 soldiers to ambush us. But the result? More than 60 of us were killed and fled, leaving behind more than 100 corpses. What do you guys have to brag about? ”

Zhang Renjian's face turned blue with anger, and he said in a stern tone: "Cui Daoshu, don't be too arrogant, this is Tang Kingdom, not your old nest Mingzhou." If we want to destroy you, you and Na Zhe will not be able to escape from the Tang Kingdom at all. ”

Cui Daoshu waved his hand and said, "Then let the horse come, we will be waiting for you at any time." ”

With that, he turned and walked away.

Seeing this, a man standing at the door hurriedly rushed up, stretched out his hand to grab Cui Daoshu, trying to control him.

"Jump." A bowstring sounded.

"Whoosh." A feathered arrow shot at the man's throat.

The man fell to the ground with a bang, his hands and feet twitched a few times, and then he didn't move.

Zhang Renjian was shocked and angry, and stretched out his hand to stop the other three men who wanted to rush forward.

He said angrily: "Cui Daoshu, you guys are too vicious!" actually kills people without saying a word, is there any royal law? ”

Cui Dao was happy: "General Zhang, you talk to me about the king's law?" Isn't that a joke? When you sent 500 men to intercept and kill us, why didn't you talk about the king's law? ”

Zhang Renjian continued to argue: "Then you can't kill people at will?" He didn't do anything bad to you, he just wanted to keep you. ”

Cui Daoshu smiled: "Lao Tzu is happy, he just wants to kill him, what can you do?" You're going to bite me? ”

Zhang Renjian was so angry that he jumped like thunder, and the three men behind him saw that their master was insulted, so they shouted and rushed towards Cui Daoshu together.

"Jump, jump."

Two feathered arrows flew and shot two more men. They fell to the ground with a bang and soon ran out of breath.

When the third man saw this, he trembled with fright and did not dare to rush up again.

Zhai Xiaoshan and Pang Xu quickly rushed out of the darkness, holding a bow and crossbow in their hands, blocking in front of Cui Daoshu, and then began to wind and load the crossbow.

After these actions were completed, the two pointed their bows and crossbows at Zhang Renjian.
