Chapter 71: The Zhen Family
A soldier whispered to the officer, "Captain, should we inform the general?" The officer said angrily: "It's just four people!" There is no need to bother the general! Take them down, so that you can go to the general's side to ask for credit! ”
A dozen sergeants, led by the shopkeeper, crept out of the room. More than a dozen sergeants lay in ambush on either side of the door, and the officer motioned for the shopkeeper to knock on the door. The shopkeeper knocked on the door at the officer's request.
Syllable! The door was suddenly kicked out violently, and the shopkeeper, who was caught off guard, was smashed, flew out of the corridor, and fell to the first floor, his face covered in blood, and he couldn't get up with a snort.
The sudden change stunned a dozen sergeants.
Zhang Lang rushed out of the room with a big knife first, and when more than a dozen sergeants saw this, they hurriedly swung their knives at Zhang Lang to kill. Zhang Lang waved his broadsword, and the current three soldiers were immediately cut out, knocking over several other soldiers, and blood flew all over the sky; At the same time, the three officers behind Zhang Lang also went on a killing spree, killing those Yuan Shaojun sergeants like gourds rolling on the ground.
The doors of the other two rooms opened, and four strong men in various costumes rushed out, and they also attacked the sergeants with long knives.
A dozen sergeants were killed by these fierce guys in the blink of an eye!
Zhang Lang glanced at the guests and men who were hiding in the shadows and looked frightened, and said in a loud voice: "Lu Bujun kills!" Stay away from irrelevant people! The fear in those people's hearts retracted their heads.
"Let's go!" Zhang Lang greeted his subordinates, and then led them out of the inn.
Zhang Lang It took a long time for them to leave, and the guests and men dared to come out, and they couldn't help but feel palpitations when they glanced at the tattered railings and the corpses in that place.
A moment later, a large group of soldiers and horses rushed to the scene with Tian Feng in their arms. The inn was surrounded by the lively people, three layers inside and three layers outside, people talked a lot, and people were panicked.
At this time, a delicate and modest carriage, escorted by the samurai, came from the city gate along the street towards the inn. Seeing that the street was blocked by the crowd, the procession stopped.
The curtain of the car was lifted, and a beautiful face was revealed. The eyebrows are curved like Yuandai, and the beautiful eyes are crystal bright, although they are not emotional, but they are full of affection; The bridge of the nose is straight, and the warm red lips reveal a heart-warming sexy charm; The skin is as fair as jade, and the jet-black hair is coiled into a delicate bun and then hangs down behind the head, and the golden hairpin on the bun shines, reflecting the face more delicate and charming. This woman is like a fairy, and like a seductive demon girl, the two temperaments are perfectly blended together, forming an incomparable temptation.
"Lao Ding, go see what's going on?" The woman said.
The middle-aged knight who was walking by the carriage answered, and immediately rode over.
After a while, the middle-aged knight came back, hugged his fists and said, "Miss Hui, there was a murder here just now. More than a dozen sergeants were killed in the inn, and it is said that it was Lu Bu's men who attacked them! ”
The young lady was stunned, "Lu Bu? ”
"Miss, is Lu Bu the guy you said earlier who played for Dong Zhuo as a tiger?" The little maid beside the young lady asked curiously.
The young lady nodded and said to Lao Ding: "Lao Ding, let's go around, Daddy is still waiting for us." ”
Lao Ding promised and beckoned the team to go to the streets and alleys on the left.
About two quarters of an hour later, the procession came to a halt outside Suzaku Street. The young lady lifted the curtain to check.
"Miss!"
The young lady was taken aback when she saw a middle-aged man dressed in bright clothes and an extraordinary temperament saluting in front of the car, "Uncle Li, why are you here?" This middle-aged man, whom she called Uncle Li, is one of the important housekeepers of her family, and he often deals with officials, although he is only a housekeeper, but his reputation in Luoyang is not small.
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "The master asked me to pick up the young lady." Then he walked up to an officer not far away, and said something, who looked over and nodded. At this time, the young lady found that the entire Suzaku Street was actually covered with sergeants with helmets and armor and swords and guns, and she couldn't help but be taken aback, thinking of the scene she had just seen on the street, and felt that Luoyang seemed to be shrouded in an uneasy atmosphere.
The middle-aged man returned to the carriage, hugged his fists and said, "Miss, you can go in." ”
The young lady didn't ask anything, nodded her head, and lowered the curtain.
The procession entered Suzaku Street under the guidance of a middle-aged man, and the street was very quiet, except for the occasional carriage and sedan chair, only the sergeants standing on both sides.
Soon after, the team arrived at a large outdoor building. The high white marble steps, the blue tile and white wall, the red lacquer pin gold gate, and a big plaque hanging on the eaves, with the word 'Zhen Fu' written on it. It turned out that this was the mansion of the Zhen family in Luoyang, Hebei. This Zhen family is one of the big clans in Hebei, with unimaginable financial resources and social influence, and is inextricably linked with Yuan Shao, and the beautiful young lady is Zhen Jiang, the eldest daughter of the Zhen family.
The Zhen family has four daughters and three sons, as the eldest daughter, Zhen Jiang is not only virtuous and virtuous, but also very capable, and has been helping the family deal with business affairs in recent years, and she has handled everything properly.
When the group entered the gate, Zhen Jiang, accompanied by the maid and Uncle Li, walked towards the hall, and saw his loving mother and strict father from a distance, his beautiful eyes showed excitement, and he unconsciously quickened his pace. When the two elders saw her, they also showed joy and excitement.
Zhen Jiang walked into the hall and bowed down, "My daughter has seen her father and mother. ”
Father Zhen Yi only gave a faint sigh of gratitude and nodded. Mother Zhang hurriedly stepped forward and helped Zhen Jiang up. Holding his daughter's hand tightly, he was cold and warm, and his eyes were full of kindness. Zhen Jiang was excited, and his beautiful eyes were rippling with admiration.
"Slaves and maids meet the lord and the lady." Zhen Jiang's personal maid bowed, and her voice was like a lark.
Zhang glanced at the maid and smiled, "The little finch is still so cute!" Glancing at Steward Li, "Steward Li, take the little finch to the plum garden, and if you need anything, start doing it immediately." Steward Li promised and said to Finch, "Little Finch, let's go." ”
The finch bowed: "Master, madam, miss, the slave and maid have retired!" Then he followed Steward Li and left.
Zhang took Zhen Jiang's hand and sat down, while Zhen Yi sat on the top, picked up a cup of tea and drank it by himself. In fact, Zhen Yi really wants to be close to his daughter like his wife, but as an independent family, he must maintain the majesty of his parents.
After a while of affectionate conversations between mother and daughter, the mother asked, "Are your sisters okay?" Have you studied well? ”
Zhen Jiang smiled and nodded, "Mother don't worry!" My sisters are very obedient! Especially the little sister, the husband praises her for her extraordinary learning! Moreover, the little sister is more beautiful and moving now, especially that temperament, just like a goddess! I've been compared to my little sister! ”
Zhen Yi smiled, "Nonsense!" ”
