Chapter 107: The Man Behind the Scenes
When Master Jin saw so many people, he was holding a stick and was aggressive, and his face changed slightly: "Presumptuous! You don't inquire, who are we? ”
"I don't care who you are, I'll call the old lady and then talk about it!" The old bustard roared. The seven or eight turtle boys and manservants agreed in unison, waving sticks and rushing up. Chunya was so frightened that she lost her face, and involuntarily threw herself into Long Zixu's arms, although Long Zixu was a scholar, she was still quite manly, leaning over and hugging Chunya's head, ready to use her back to resist the stick. Song Zhixian and Master Jin were also so frightened that they hid behind the screen.
The little black dog at the foot of Yang Qiuchi has already burst out like lightning, and bites the ankles of the two turtle males who rushed to the front, without stopping, scurrying around under the feet of these turtle males and male servants, biting a bite in the east and biting in the west, none of them pulled down, and there is still a surplus, the fat pig's feet of the old bustard were gnawed twice, and the old bustard sat on the ground with a butt in pain, howling like killing a pig.
Before the turtle and the manservants could make a move, they were bitten by the little black dog and jumped around with their feet in their hands.
At the same time, the brocade guard Hou Xiaoqi and another brocade guard behind Yang Qiuchi also made a move, and they couldn't see that these two brocade guards were still skilled, with three punches and two feet, and these seven or eight turtle men and male servants were lying on the ground.
Yang Qiuchi smiled: "It seems that your black shop is not very good." ”
The little black dog returned to Yang Qiuchi's side, grinning his fangs and staring at the old bustard lying on the ground crying for his father and mother, a few turtle males and male servants, and roared and threatened in a low voice.
Hou Xiaoqi stepped on the fat belly of the old bustard and asked Yang Qiuchi: "Young master, just abolish them and light this black shop with a fire." "These brocade guards are really good, it seems that they are usually used to it, and they are still so horizontal when they play the male servant.
The old bustard roared: "You few are waiting for a thousand knives, there is someone above the old lady, you wash your butts and wait to squat in prison." ”
She didn't say this Yang Qiuchi didn't want to be more serious, but since there were people above them, she wanted to see which official master was behind her, and her privilege of being the envoy of Jinyiwei to cut first and then play had not been used, besides, the clues of the white bone case were probably still going to fall on this drunken warbler building, and if they couldn't get rid of them, the case would not be able to be investigated.
Yang Qiuchi gestured to Hou Xiaoqi to let him go. Hou Xiaoqi let go of his feet and returned to Yang Qiuchi's side. Yang Qiuchi asked with a smile: "You old sow, go and call your boar, I want to see what kind of pig you look like, can you cover you?" ”
The old bustard, the turtles, and the male servants did not dare to pick up the sticks, and even crawled out of the door.
Yang Qiuchi whispered a few words to Hou Xiaoqi, Hou Xiaoqi nodded, and also flashed out of the door.
Long Zixu asked the Chunya girl in his arms: "Chunya, are you okay?" ”
Miss Chunya left Long Zixu's embrace with a red face and shook her head: "Thank you, Young Master Long, I'm fine." Song Zhixian and Master Jin were shocked, and Song Zhixian said: "Virtuous nephew, fortunately, fortunately, I am fortunate to have you, otherwise it would ......"
Long Zixu also said: "Yes, young master, it seems that the person who supports this old bustard is very tough, or let's avoid it first." ”
Yang Qiuchi said: "Don't be afraid, Miss Chunya hasn't seen the murderer, this clue is broken, let's find a clue again." They are so worried about what we asked Miss Jin Keying, there must be a problem. You must first get the people who support them before you can find out what the problem is. ”
Song Zhixian and the others nodded again and again after hearing this. Long Zixu asked, "Then what should we do?" ”
Yang Qiuchi said: "Fortunately, the banquet was not overturned, are you hungry?" I'm hungry anyway. Let's eat first, and when we're full, we're going to have a fucking fight. With that, he sat down first, picked up his glass and took a sip.
Seeing that Yang Qiuchi was so calm and confident, Song Zhixian and the others were also a little more steady, and they all sat down and began to eat and drink.
Song Zhixian saw that Yang Qiuchi's male servant had just gone out, and it was estimated that he had moved the rescuers, but what the quality of the rescuers was, they still had no bottom, but in the city of Ningguofu, there would be no major incidents, and it was a big deal to show his identity and origin, and declare that he was investigating the case, that is. However, when this court official came to the Ji Yuan, even if it was to investigate the case, it was always inappropriate, and he regretted that he didn't listen to Master Jin's words.
Yang Qiuchi asked Chunya to sit down and eat together, and when he saw that she was dressed plainly, not like a singer in the Qinglou, he asked, "Girl, what are you doing here now?" ”
Chunya's eyes were red: "Be a handyman." ”
Yang Qiuchi looked at her, although she was thin, she was still born with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and wondered why this old bustard was kind and didn't let her pick up guests. casually asked: "This fat pig bustard, why didn't you pick up ......" This is not good, so stop quickly.
Chunya lowered her head and said: "It was Miss Ke Ying who bought me as a Yahuan at the beginning, and I didn't sell myself to Zuiying Lou, so I ...... it, after Miss Keying disappeared, the old bustard said that Miss Ke Ying was her person from Drunken Yinglou, and Yahuan was also from Drunken Yinglou." She had no reason to force me to do that kind of thing, so she forced me to do handyman work, and I had nowhere to go, so I stayed in the Drunken Ying Building. ”
Yang Qiuchi nodded, it seems that this is also a hard-working girl. Turning his head and whispering in Long Zixu's ear: "Mr. Long, wait a while, I will pay for Chunya to redeem myself and give you as a daughter-in-law, okay?" ”
Long Zixu said: "How can you let the young master break the bank, this matter will wait until I have my own money." ”
"What's the matter, you are my follower to the squad leader, we haven't talked about this bride price yet." Yang Qiuchi said, turned his head and asked Master Jin: "Master, in our realm, how much does it cost to hire a long-term follower per month?" ”
"Take care of food and housing, two taels of silver a month."
"Good!" Yang Qiuchi said to Long Zixu: "That's it, let's do business, I will hire you as my follower, three times the salary, food and lodging, six taels of silver per month." How is it? ”
"This, that's too much." Long Zixu was overjoyed, he went from rich to poor, he has deeply realized the bitterness of having no money, he used to copy books for others, and after copying a book, after a few days, it was quite good to have one or two hundred copper coins. It's a job like this, and it's hard to encounter it once or twice a month. Yang Qiuchi is not only his life-saving benefactor, but also pays a lot of money to hire himself as a long-term follower, this is really a pie falling from the sky.
"What a lot, it's nothing, I still have a few dollars. By the way, you are my attendant, I have to give you some greeting gifts. In this way, I paid for the redemption of this girl Chunya, which is considered my girl, and then promised you to be a daughter-in-law, not your bride price. As long as you do things for me wholeheartedly in the future. ”
Long Zixu couldn't help but be happy, but he didn't know what the Chunya girl thought, so he glanced at Chunya.
Yang Qiuchi then thought that he was wishful thinking, and he hadn't asked anyone else about Chunya's girl, so he leaned over and asked Chunya with a smile: "Girl, are you willing?" ”
Chunya lowered her head shyly, glanced at Long Zixu secretly, and nodded slightly.
Yang Qiuchi laughed, this family matter was decided.
Long Zixu and Chunya stood up and thanked Yang Qiuchi. Yang Qiuchi was a matchmaker for others for the first time, and it felt quite cool.
At this moment, I heard a commotion downstairs, and Hou Xiaoqi pushed open the door to take a look, with a happy face, and opened the door. From outside the house, several Jinyi guards wearing flying fish suits entered, led by a burly man, who was the Jinyi Guard's cattle and hundreds of households in Ningguofu. The fat pig bustard followed behind him with a depressed face, his face was red and white, not shy, he should have been slapped.
When Niu Baihu saw Yang Qiuchi when he entered the door, he laughed: "Brother, brother, I can look forward to you." Grabbing Yang Qiuchi's hand and shaking it vigorously, he looked very affectionate, "Brother came to Ning Guofu and didn't say hello, did you really treat me as an outsider?" Yang Qiuchi was a little worried that Niu Baihu would leak his identity and reveal his identity, but now it seems that Niu Baihu is quite good at acting.
Song Zhixian and the others saw Jinyiwei come in, thinking that the backstage of this drunken Yinglou was Jinyiwei of Ningguo's mansion, and they were secretly complaining and panicking, and seeing that the leader of Jinyiwei was actually very affectionate to Yang Qiuchi, and even a little stammering, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, now that Jinyiwei is on their side, no matter how big the wind and waves are, they are not afraid.
Yang Qiuchi introduced Niu Baihu for Song Zhixian, Song Zhixian learned that this Niu Baihu turned out to be the original boss of Jinyi Wei General Banner Ma Du, Song Zhixian suddenly realized that he knew the relationship between Yang Qiuchi and Ma Du, it seems that this Niu Baihu met Yang Qiuchi through Ma Du, and the relationship was good. If he knew that Yang Qiuchi was now the envoy of the Jinyi Guard, then he wouldn't be surprised.
While he was talking, there was a commotion in the hall below, and Yang Qiuchi poked his head out to take a look, but Song Yun'er was arguing with several turtle fathers, one of whom was still covering his face, and it seemed that he had been slapped by this eldest lady. Yang Qiuchi called her, Song Yun'er looked up, her face was happy, and she shouted: "Brother~!" Three or two steps upstairs to the wing, "Brother, Dad, are you okay?" ”
"We're fine," Mr. Yang said. Looking behind her, "What about the mud dolls?" ”
"She doesn't know martial arts, so I asked her to stay in the carriage and wait for us."
It turned out that Song Yun'er had just heard the commotion inside, and then saw Jinyiwei coming, for fear that Daddy and Yang Qiuchi would be in danger, so she rushed in, but she couldn't find anyone, so she asked for trouble with the turtle fathers.
Niu Baihu turned around and called the old bustard, the old bustard cowered and stepped forward, Niu Baihu slapped it over, and the old bustard turned around, and five red marks suddenly appeared on the fat face.
"You're fucking dead? Even my brother dares to touch it? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu demolished your broken shoe building? Niu Baihu roared.
The old bustard knelt on the ground with a grunt, covering his fat face and accompanying him, and the turtles behind him knew that they had provoked Tai Sui, so they hurriedly followed behind the bustard, and Hula lala knelt down.
Niu Baihu scolded and raised his foot and was about to kick again, but Yang Qiuchi hurriedly stopped: "Forget it, eldest brother, the younger brother doesn't know that this drunken Yinglou was originally covered by the eldest brother, if you know......"
"No, no! Brother, you misunderstood. Niu Baihu hurriedly explained, "Brother, I have no interest, and I won't do this for a living." ”
Yang Qiuchi was a little surprised: "Then this is ......"
Niu Baihu whispered in Yang Qiuchi's ear: "This drunken warbler building was opened by the brother-in-law of Ning Guofu. This is the same as the surname Wang, and it seems to have something to do with the political envoy, and he is above the top. "Tongzhi is the deputy of the prefect, Zhengwupin, equivalent to the current deputy secretary of the prefectural party committee, so it is, Yang Qiuchi understands, no wonder this old bustard is so arrogant, I didn't expect to meet my own envoy, otherwise, with Song Zhixian they really can't handle it.
Yang Qiuchi is in his chest, since it is a big trouble, then make a complete trouble. Yang Qiuchi beckoned Niu Baihu to sit down and drink together. Niu Baihu is also a person who is not afraid of things, and there is Yang Qiuchi, the commander and envoy, it is like holding a good card in his hand, and he will not lose.
Niu Baihu Yang Qiuchi and the two of them talked and laughed while eating, only Song Zhixian and others were worried. After a while, there was another commotion downstairs, and Yang Qiuchi smiled: "It seems that this drunken warbler building is really a bit lively today." ”
Yang Qiuchi and Niu Baihu poked their heads out of the window to look at the hall downstairs, only to see a group of guards surrounded by an old man in his sixties who came in. Downstairs, the turtle man pointed to the top and whispered something. The old man blushed and rushed upstairs and entered the wing.
When the old bustard looked at the old man, he was so aggrieved that he snorted and salivaed, and he didn't even know what to say.
The old man entered the room and gave a salute to Niu Baihu, his face was quite displeased: "Lord Niu, you ...... You also know that this drunken Yinglou belongs to my king, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, you can't avoid ......"
Yang Qiuchi looked at the old man and asked Niu Baihu with a smile: "This is ......?"
Niu Baihu sneered and looked at the sky with his eyes: "This is one of the parents and officials of our Ning Guofu, Lord Yirong, the same acquaintance!" ”
"Oh?" Yang Qiuchi looked Wang Yirong up and down, and saw that Wang Yirong pouted and looked indispensable, and Niu Baihu said, this Wang Tongzhi has something to do with the political envoy, and there is a political envoy as the backstage, no wonder he is so dragged.
Wang Tongzhi Ping said that he was quite polite to Niu Baihu, because although this Jinyiwei Baihu is only the sixth grade, one level lower than Wang Tongzhi, but Jinyiwei is a person around the emperor and is responsible for investigating the hundred officials of the imperial court. Therefore, this Wang Tongzhi still gave three points to Niu Baihu, but he had to report that a few people were making trouble in the drunken Yinglou opened by his brother-in-law, and he thought it was just some gangsters, and he just called someone to deal with it. Later, Wang Tongzhi's brother-in-law came to report that those people had the support of hundreds of households in brocade clothes and guards, and they also beat the old bustard, Wang Tongzhi was really angry now, and hurried over with people and horses.
Wang Tongzhi saw Niu Baihu's attitude of speaking, and he was even more angry, and was about to get angry, Yang Qiuchi suddenly reached out and grabbed Wang Tongzhi, and walked behind the screen.
Wang Tongzhi is a shriveled old man, how is he Yang Qiuchi's opponent, he was dragged by Yang Qiuchi and almost fell, I don't know what's going on, this person dares to treat himself like this, is it a ringing horse robber? Frightened, he almost cried out for help.
Wang Tongzhi's brother-in-law yelled: "You dare to hold the court officials hostage, don't you want to live?" The rest of the retinue and servants shouted to rush up.
Niu Baihu stood up suddenly, pressed his hand on the hilt of the knife and shouted: "Do you want to rebel?" If you want to die, come up! ”
