Chapter 42: The Tiger Falls to Pingyang (1)
"There are many young officials in the DPRK and China who support Lord Xiao, and they are still afraid of Lord Shen and dare not express their views, but now seeing that the wind has changed, and Lord Qi of Honglu Temple Shaoqing has taken the lead, more than 20 people immediately signed a joint name to protect Lord Xiao, proving that he has no intention of rebellion. This step taken by Lord Xiao, according to the old slave, is really wonderful. ”
After listening to Uncle Zhong's words, Song Ran groaned slightly: "However, the timing of his appearance is too good." ”
The timing was so good that she suspected that this step he had taken, coupled with Liu Mingxian's case, was a joint in a larger organ. It seems to be a fortuitous coincidence, but it is actually a clever calculation.
I don't know which person who has a deep hatred for Shen Hanxi can have such a ability.
"The Holy Lord has suspended Shen Hanxi's position, and together with Xiao Yan's rebellion case, he will be remanded back to the three divisions for trial."
Song Ran's eyes jumped: "There is such a big thing, and the Ting Wei Division has no action?" ”
Shen Hanxi shouldn't be the kind of person who sits idly by.
Zhong Bo shook his head, and when he heard the movement behind him, he put away the words behind him, returned to his usual expression, and turned around.
I saw the dumb man carrying the two bags of rice and grain sent by Hang Da and came over, and said, "Hang Da said that something happened in the shop, let Uncle Zhong go over." ”
Song Ran asked Hang Da, who was following him, "What's wrong?" ”
Hang Da looked uneven, and said in a deep voice: "In the past few days, some people have come to the shop to make trouble, and they have threatened to smash our shop, so that we can't stay in this Ling'an City." Steward Liu lasted for a few days, but he really couldn't stand it, so he had to come to invite the owner. ”
Song Ran saw that half of his face was swollen, as if he had just fought with someone, and frowned and asked him, "What's wrong with your face?" ”
He was thin-skinned, turned his head hurriedly, avoided her gaze, and whispered, "It's nothing, I accidentally fell." ”
Song Ran didn't ask, and said, "Dumb, you go to Uncle Zhong's room to get the bone-setting medicine and wipe it on Hang Da." I'm afraid this person is coming at me, Uncle Zhong will stay and watch the house, and I will go with you. ”
She guessed correctly, the person who picked quarrels and provoked trouble was none other than the previous Second Master Zhu.
He didn't know where to find out that the shop "The First in the World" was hers, and she sent people to harass her every day. The dignified royal family and nobles, but they are like a scoundrel. are all such clan relatives, and it is no wonder that the situation of this Dajing is getting worse day by day.
Steward Liu looked at the man sitting in the messy shop, and then at the thugs lined up outside the shop, angry and scared in his heart. He had already reported to the official several times, but as soon as the people in the official government heard the words "the first in the world", they drove him out like a fly.
"This son, our 'world first' is a legitimate business, I don't know where I offended you, what do you have to say, you might as well pick it out and say it, everything should be negotiable."
"This matter is not negotiable, what about your host, call her over."
"I'm the steward here, and you tell me the same thing......
"Steward Liu!"
Hearing Hang Da's voice outside the door, Steward Liu and Hang Er hurriedly greeted him, and when he saw the mute helping a girl down from the carriage, he couldn't help but reproach Hang Da in a low voice: "Didn't you just invite your Uncle Zhong here, you called the owner to do something!" ”
Hang Da was a little stammered: "Yes, it's the owner who ...... her"
"Steward Liu, I'm coming, don't blame Hangda."
Hang Er ran up to her and complained: "The owner, this is the person who comes to us every day to make trouble!" ”
For some reason, when he saw this little master coming, his heart was immediately settled.
The second master Zhu was still dressed in a colorful robe, and walked towards her, with the corners of his mouth raised: "Little lady, you are finally willing to show up." ”
The dumb man stood in front of Song Ran silently, and looked at him coldly.
Zhu Erye saw that he was the one who beat him in the Buddhist temple that day, and couldn't help but step back, remembering that there were many people with him today, so he straightened his waist again, raised his eyebrows and said, "This blue sky and white day, you can't mess around." If you dare to mess around, someone will report to the official immediately, offend me, master, and I will make your shop completely unopenable. As he spoke, he paced to Song Ran's side and leaned into her ear, "Don't you have a big backer?" Why don't you call him over and support you? ”
Song Ran understood that the backer in his mouth naturally referred to Shen Hanxi.
After hearing that Shen Hanxi was suspended at home, he was overjoyed and immediately came here. The backer is about to fall, and he wants to see where she is fleeing this time.
When the dumb man saw him approaching Song Ran, his eyes showed a cold light for a moment, but he was stopped by Song Ran with a look.
She looked at the other party quietly: "What Second Master Zhu wants, you might as well say it directly." ”
"What do you want?" He pointed at the dumb man, "I want him to kneel on the ground and apologize to my lord, and I want you to go back to the house with my lord today, be a slave and a maid for my lord, and serve my lord every day, and serve him comfortably, and the past grievances will not be blamed, otherwise, I will let you not be able to mix in Ling'an City!"
When the others heard this, they all frowned, and Liu Laosi was even more angry and unstable. The conditions he put forward are simply too deceitful! Looking at the owner again, he still looked indifferent, as if he didn't take his humiliation to heart.
She straightened her sleeves: "Originally, I thought that everything was easy to discuss, but it seems that there is no need to discuss it anymore." The dumb ......" pointed out the door, "go outside and fight." ”
The mute nodded, grabbing the man's collar. Before anyone present could react, they saw him screaming and flying out of the shop, and after the dumb threw him out, he strode out of the threshold and stepped on his chest again. Then he stretched out a hand to the thug who was stunned and said, "Let's go together." ”
Liu Laosi and the Hang brothers walked to the door with shocked expressions, watching the dumb man face dozens of thugs alone, and Zhu Erye was just struggling to stand up, and was soon stepped back by one foot of him.
Song Ran looked at him sympathetically: "Second master, how good it is to stay in the palace, why bother to come here to fight?" ”
The dumb man repelled a wave, moved his wrist, and was about to continue fighting, but suddenly heard a clear voice: "Yo, it's so lively here." ”
Song Ran's eyelids jumped when he saw someone coming, and said, "Lord Xia, why are you here?" ”
However, it was good that he came, and it saved her from having trouble dealing with the aftermath. I just thought about sending Hang Da to Chengwu Wangfu to deliver a letter, but now it seems that there is no need to trouble him.
"I went to look for you in your house, but you weren't there, Uncle Zhong asked me to come here to find you. Yo, who is this one? ”
Xia Xiaoqiu squatted in front of Second Master Zhu and asked him curiously.
Zhu Erye opened his eyes and saw a little man with dark skin looking at him, smiling evilly, he was about to scold, but suddenly saw the brocade clothes on his body and the unicorn waist card hanging from his waist.
Looking at the shape of the waist card, it's just a small captain, not a big official. However, the military generals of the Tingwei Division are humble and powerful. Maybe this one is Shen Hanxi's cronies. But after thinking about it, even Shen Hanxi was suspended, what is there to be afraid of a small six-rank general!
Thinking of this, he was instantly full of strength: "Dog fighting people's things, look at it, grandpa, I'm ......"
Before he could finish speaking, the other man's fingers reached into his mouth, grabbed his tongue, and pulled a dagger from his waist with the other hand.
"This thing that can't speak, it's useless when it grows, and grandpa will cut it for you to save trouble."
The young man's narrow eyes shone with a cold light like a beast, and he trembled heavily, as his tongue was caught, and his saliva was uncontrollable, and it flowed everywhere. He immediately realized that this person was not joking, and quickly shook his head tremblingly, his lower body was incontinent, and his crotch was soon wet.
Before Xia Xiaoqiu could cut it off, the hand holding the dagger was suddenly held down by a pair of hands.
The dumb man put his hand hard, grabbed his wrist, and shook his head at him: "No. ”
Seeing his firm gaze, Xia Xiaoqiu sighed a little disappointed and got up from the ground.
For the rest of his life, as soon as Second Master Zhu broke out of his restraint, he squirmed back a few inches like a lost dog.
Xia Xiaoqiu stared at him coldly: "Hugh said that you are the prince of Dajing, even if you are the prince and grandson, you can also try to see how hard your life can be!" After that, he threatened, "Take your people away, and come to trouble Miss Song in the future, but I don't have the good luck I have today!" ”
Looking at the second master Zhu fleeing the scene, Xia Xiaoqiu walked in front of Song Ran and asked her for credit: "How did I behave?" ”
Song Ran was too eye-catching because his brocade clothes were too eye-catching, and hurriedly said, "Lord Xia, come in and talk." ”
Xia Xiaoqiu raised his feet and entered the shop, the official clothes were so shocking that Liu Laosi couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, but Hang Er touched him, and he hurriedly picked up the messy shop and took Xia Xiaoqiu to a seat. Song Ran saw that all the guys were frightened, and hurriedly found an excuse for them to retreat, poured a cup of tea for Xia Xiaoqiu, and asked him: "I haven't seen Master Xia for a long time, you came to me today, is there something wrong?" ”
He untied the knife from his waist, put it on the table, and said hatefully: "My family has been calculated by villains recently, which is really embarrassing. I don't have any friends in Ling'an City, and I don't play with women, so I have to come to you, if it weren't for the prohibition of alcohol in Tingweisi, I really want to drink him and get drunk! After speaking, he glanced at her, "To be honest, my family has been suspended, don't you think it's very happy?" ”
Song Ran sat down opposite him and put his arm on the table: "Master Xia, the world thinks that Lord Shen is a minister, that is the opinion of the world, no one can influence it, when Lord Xiao was arrested, there were many people who sighed for it, but they may not really understand Lord Xiao." People in the world have always been blind obedient, and if they are always cared for, their hearts will not be happy all the time. You tell me? ”
She avoided his question in two or two, he thought about it, and felt quite reasonable, but his expression was still a little gloomy: "My family is in charge of the Imperial Guard, so many helplessness and difficulties, one by one they all turn a blind eye, and now that the adults are in trouble, a group of people have come out to see the jokes." I really can't wait to find someone to fight. ”
As he spoke, he glanced at the mute, and the mute was silent, and moved half a step behind Song Ran.
Song Ran was afraid that Xia Xiaoqiu would really want to vent his dumbness, so he hurriedly said: "Since Xia Ye is idle, I will accompany you out for a walk." ”
