Chapter Twenty-Six: The Swordsman in White, the Young Sword-Bearer
A white-clothed sword-wielding Jianghu guest, a young man with a knife, just like this in the boundless night, talking to each other, obviously not seen a few times, but somehow both of them have an innate sense of tacit understanding.
"Tell me, what's the matter with me?" Zhang Xiaoxian asked.
"I guess you've heard these days that there is a county lord who will spend the sun and moon in the Qinglou gambling house, and he jumped off the building and died in a gambling house?"
"Of course I know this, but what does this have to do with me?" Zhang Xiaoxian asked quietly.
Xiao Yungu smiled indifferently: "This matter has a lot to do with me, that building is the property of my Qianlong Gang, and my brother Lisan, who is in charge of the cabinet shop, has been seized by the Lin'an Mansion and charged with being a co-offender!"
"Then is he or isn't?" Zhang Xiaoxian deliberately pretended to be stupid.
"Of course not, this is just an excuse for the Lin'an Mansion, and the real situation behind it is that someone secretly instructed the Lin'an Mansion to deliberately attack my brother, the purpose is just to target the entire Qianlong Gang, and I ...... here."
Zhang Xiaoxian listened, and there was a trace of guilt in his heart, originally the county was killed by him when he went to the cabinet shop, and the yamen of Lin'an Mansion, who was responsible for checking this matter, did not find him, but he attacked Lisan and the building.
Now that Xiao Yungu actually said that they were involved in their entire Qianlong Gang, this matter sounds like it's going to make a big fuss!
How do you feel a little wrong, could it be that there is something hidden? Zhang Xiaoxian not only turned his head to look at Xiao Yungu.
Feeling the incomprehensible gaze looking at him, Xiao Yungu smiled: "Things are so unexpected, but this time, there are many people who are determined to destroy the Qianlong Gang, and it is true that I am to destroy me, so I am in trouble now......"
Zhang Xiaoxian scratched his head when he heard this: "I understand, someone wants to take advantage of this incident to attack your Qianlong Gang, and that person is definitely a powerful character, have you ever offended him?"
"It's a complicated matter, I can't tell you clearly for a while, but now I want you to know that that person is not just one person, but a lot of very powerful people, so, in order to deal with them, I sent all my brothers out, because I want to subdue them or destroy them for someone, so there is no one available around me......"
"So, you found me?" Zhang Xiaoxian continued to scratch his head.
"However, this matter sounds very complicated and dangerous, besides, why should I help you!"
Xiao Yungu looked at the young man and said sincerely: "Little brother, to be honest, I'm not sure that you can help me, but I still want to give it a try, because I may really not be able to do without you!"
"There is no boundary ...... this said," Zhang Xiaoxian said blankly: "You are the leader of the largest gang in Lin'an City, and I am a hard-working young man who has nothing, no matter how you look at it, I am the only one who begs for your share, how can you ask me for anything!"
Xiao Yungu smiled and explained: "I heard the third child say, that day you were in the Cabinet Workshop, and that Yingfu had used demonic means to deal with him, but it was inexplicably broken by you, so I think you should be able to help me this time, because among the people who want to trouble me this time, maybe there will be people who have already entered the demonic path! ”
"There is some truth in what you said......" Zhang Xiaoxian remembered the strange scene that day, and his heart was also in a trance, because he never understood how he could behave like that, it was too weird, but it was real.
However, even if Xiao Yungu was right, he still didn't mean to agree immediately, because he was a very life-loving person, which couldn't be said that he Zhang Xiaoxian was greedy for life and afraid of death, and the most important thing was that the list of enemies in Zhang Linzi's hand still had a list of names that he needed to erase, so he didn't want to have anything wrong before he completed that thing.
Xiao Yungu must have also seen Zhang Xiaoxian's hesitation, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, young man, I won't let your life be in danger, even if it is, you can ignore me and withdraw at any time!"
Hearing the two words of offer, Zhang Xiaoxian's brows not only moved, so to help Xiao Yungu do this, you can earn silver, silver is such a thing, to be honest, it is something that people like, although I accidentally earned some money by chance a while ago, but if I want to live in this capital, I have to study in Helan Academy, how can that be enough.
"Then if I agree, how much are you going to give me?" Zhang Xiaoxian asked frankly.
Xiao Yungu lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Three thousand taels...... Do you think it's possible?"
Three thousand taels? Zhang Xiaoxian's palm, which was still naturally open, clenched suddenly, not a small stroke.
"Okay, deal!" Zhang Xiaoxian replied, "However, you can rest assured, as long as I promise to help you, I will never give up halfway and escape." ”
"Xiaoxian, what are you doing?" suddenly came from the back room where the two were sitting, and Zhang Linzi's voice came out.
"My brother is awake, I have to go and see!" Zhang Xiaoxian looked at Xiao Yungu and said, "When will I go to find you!"
"My people have figured it out, and they'll be doing it later tomorrow......"
"Okay, then I'll go to you tomorrow......" After Zhang Xiaoxian finished speaking, he didn't care about Xiao Yungu anymore, stood up and ran towards the house.
On the couch in the house, Zhang Linzi woke up after taking medicine, feeling drenched in sweat, with the meaning of recovering from this illness, he was secretly a little relieved, and he didn't want to hear someone talking outside, so he knew that there were outsiders at home.
In the middle of the night, who would come to Xiaoxian to find Xiaoxian? Zhang Linzi, who was puzzled, could only prick up his ears and listen carefully to the conversation of people outside.
But after all, they were separated by a distance, and the sound coming in was also intermittent, and I vaguely heard the words of help, three thousand taels of silver.
Zhang Linzi suddenly understood in his heart what someone was going to do when he came to find Zhang Xiaoxian, so he was anxious, so he shouted.
"Are you awake?" Zhang Xiaoxian, who ran in quickly, looked at Zhang Linzi, who already had a bloody face, and asked.
"Who is outside, are you going out on an adventure again, Xiaoxian, I don't agree!" Zhang Linzi said to Zhang Xiaoxian while struggling to get up.
Seeing Zhang Linzi like this, Zhang Xiaoxian understood that he must have heard something, and hurriedly comforted him: "It's not a big deal, it's just to help kill some people, and come ......back by the way to earn some silver."
"Little leisure...... Ahem, I said, you don't have to worry about earning money in the future, I can do it, I owe you a lot to have you to help me avenge our Lin family, how can I let you take that risk again, no, I won't let you go, besides, I haven't recovered from this illness and need someone to take care of me, you can stay and take care of me, you can't go anywhere!
Zhang Linzi seems to have made up his mind this time, that is, he will not let Zhang Xiaoxian go out, Zhang Xiaoxian is very helpless, but since he has promised Xiao Yungu, he can't go back, that's not his style of doing things.
"I'll find Sister Yun'er to take care of you early tomorrow morning, how about it?" Zhang Xiaoxian thought of a solution that was not a way at this time, and looked at Zhang Linzi and said.
"This, this won't work......" Zhang Linzi gritted his teeth, he didn't want to see Zhang Yun'er, he hadn't seen the girl in his heart for so long, he had already been a little unbearable, but compared to the danger that Zhang Xiaoxian might face now, it was nothing.
This can't work? Zhang Xiaoxian is really a little out of tricks now.
had to lie to Zhang Linzi: "You may not know, the people I want to help kill this time are all related to our enemies, if I help that person succeed this time, not only can I lose the power of our enemies, but also earn back a lot of silver by the way, which can be regarded as the best of both worlds......"
When Zhang Linzi heard this, he suddenly lost his insistence just now: It turned out that Xiao Xian was going to do something related to avenge their Lin family, so what reason did he have to refute?
Is it possible that you can do these things yourself?
After pondering for a long time and being annoyed for a long time, Zhang Linzi raised his head with some embarrassment: "You say, call Yun'er tomorrow......"
As soon as the sun rose from the east in the early morning, Zhang Xiaoxian had already appeared on Linglong Street in Lin'an City, standing in front of Zhang's mansion, regretful.
"What kind of bad idea did you say I came up with, I actually thought that I could call Zhang Yun'er to their house to take care of the sick Zhang Linzi......
But after he asked the concierge of Zhang's mansion just now, he learned that Zhang Yun'er had basically been placed under house arrest and no one was allowed to see him.
His promise to Zhang Linzi in his illness was about to fail, and he didn't know how sad he should be.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaoxian not only scratched his ears and cheeks, but also thought about how to explain this matter when he went back.
At this time, as soon as the door of Zhang's mansion opened, a richly dressed woman came out of it, looking like she was in her forties, and her appearance was somewhat similar to Zhang Yun'er.
This should be the eldest aunt who has never met, Zhang Xiaoxian looked at the woman and thought to himself.
The wife of the main house of the court, Zhang Jiyuan, because her lord has been in some trouble in the officialdom recently, such as the family surnamed Li, who is not in harmony with his own family, not only opposes his husband everywhere in the court, but also because of the competition for a house, which makes it even more incompatible.
So far, the house has not been fought for, which has deepened the resentment between the two families.
You must know that Li Zhongshou is a confidant of a certain prince who is in high demand in the court, and now that he has a grudge against him, his master's future future is worrying.
Coupled with his baby daughter, I don't know why, recently I got very close to two poor boys, and was placed under house arrest in the backyard by my own master, these bad things made this official lady who has always been pampered a headache, so, in order to be able to have peace of mind, Cui's went out early in the morning, ready to go to the Dahua Temple located in the west of Lin'an City to pray for blessings.
In front of the gate of the mansion, Cui had just stepped out of the door, and suddenly saw a strange young man, standing not far from the gate, looking at this side from time to time......
