Back at Chengtian Mansion, it was almost the second half of the night.

Night Terror Silent jumped into the corridor on the second floor of the inn, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the birds walking on the fence, with three points of loneliness in the melancholy back, and whispered "coo", which should be chanting - the sunset unsaddles the grass bank. There are no birds to wear flowers, no birds to persuade wine, and no birds to manage when drunk......

Night Terror shook his head secretly, came to the front and fed a few pieces of jerky, and then went to the door of the room to check.

The lights in Yunli's room are still on, probably because of the battle with the grandmaster in the afternoon, he was beaten blue and purple, and realized his own gap, but he was not playing around at this time, standing in the room with a long knife in his hand, his eyes closed and not moving, he should be feeling the 'knife intent'.

As an expert in playing with knives, Night Terror Hall naturally understood what Yunli was doing, and did not make a sound to disturb. He stood at the door for a moment, and waited until Yunli opened his eyes and began to make gestures, before he raised his hand and knocked on the door:

Knock knock~

When Zhe Yunli heard the knock on the door, he quickly put the knife back into its sheath, turned around and opened the door:

"Cousin, why did you come back, eh? How did you change your clothes? Dressed like a big dog's legs...... Ouch~"

Night Terror Hall raised his hand and flicked it on Yun Li's head, and then threw the waist card to her:

"I just went to get a job, to be the guard of the Hua family, and to go to Beijing with me. What about Aunt Fan? ”

Zhi Yunli took the sign and looked back and forth: "Aunt Fan just took a bath and fell asleep." Which Hua family is this? It can't have anything to do with the Miss Hua who went to our house last time, right? ”

"You're smart, she's her. Her grandfather used to be a teacher, and he happened to go to Guozijian to study, so he could help. Are you going to Washington with me to be a maid, or are you following behind? ”

Zhe Yunli pondered slightly: "I must follow, otherwise what will I do when I come out." The guards must have family members, or you will say that I am your daughter-in-law, and the Hua family can't even let you bring your family members, right? ”

？

Night Terror Tang thought that this proposal was good, but the reality did not allow it, and he pointed to the word 'B' on the back of the sign:

"I'm an inferior family, it's good to eat and live, where to drag the family to go. Miss Hua has seen you once and knows you, you just need to be a maid, and you don't have to really serve tea and pour plumbing quilts. ”

Zhe Yunli is really not very good at serving people, but after thinking about it, he still said:

"To do a line, you have to have the appearance of a line, even if it is a disguised maid, it must not leak, so as not to be seen. Okay, if you are a maid, you can be a maid, just look at the arrangement. ”

Night Terror nodded and took the sign back:

"I have to report to Washington tomorrow, it's too late, go to bed early."

Zhe Yunli fought with the grandmaster in the afternoon, because he didn't fight well and lost people in front of the Night Terror Hall and Aunt Fan, and now he wants to be angry and strong, and he said helplessly:

"I lay down and pondered the afternoon moves, I always wanted to practice, but I couldn't sleep at all, or I wouldn't startle my cousin ......"

Knock knock~

Night Terror Hall was quite understanding, and when he raised his hand, he learned from Ning'er, and tapped twice on Yunli's back to help her fall asleep.

Zhe Yunli's body shook slightly, and his eyelids gradually became heavy, and he muttered a little speechlessly:

"I mean to practice with me......"

Thump~

Before he could finish speaking, his body fell.

Night Terror shook his head secretly, caught Yunli and put it on the bed, and covered the thin quilt again, before turning around and walking out of the room.

Squeak~

After closing the door of the Night Terror Hall, he listened attentively first, and after making sure that Yunli was asleep, he came to the next door and opened the door lightly.

In the next room, the lights had been turned off, and I had just taken a shower in the house, and there was still a faint scent of flower soap in the air.

Qing He, who was proud of his figure, was lying on the pillow in red pajamas at this time, and the thin quilt was pulled to his chest, he should have been woken up by Fang Cai's conversation, but he was not asleep, and was looking up at him, his eyes were slightly guarded:

"What are you doing when you put the clouds to sleep?"

Night Terror closed the door and came to the bed:

"Yunli can't sleep, just do me a favor. I went to Huajia just now to apply for a guard, and then I went to Huangmei County and met the people of the Blue Dragon Society......"

Fan Qinghe saw that the night terror hall was reporting on the work, and interjected:

"You're a man, you can arrange these things yourself, what do you say to me? I'm going to sleep, go back to your room. ”

With a smile in the corner of his eyes, Night Terror raised his hand and rubbed his shoulder:

"I ran back and forth for more than 200 miles just now, and I was tired......

"When you're tired of running, you rub your legs, what are you doing rubbing your shoulders?"

"Uh...... Running and swinging arms, I have an old injury on my shoulder, and I don't feel completely well. ”

How could Fan Qinghe not understand the thoughts of the Night Terror, and when she saw that the man had the opportunity, she drilled into the bed, and she was speechless, she wanted to harden her heart, but she couldn't grind the Night Terror Hall at all, and after taking a few deep breaths, she finally turned over and faced inward, and stopped speaking.

Seeing this, Night Terror naturally understood the meaning, took off his shoes, picked up the futon and lay on his back, raised his hand, and found that Qinghe was wearing a light nightdress, and he didn't wear anything underneath, it should have just taken a shower, and it was very moist.

Fan Qinghe found that the Night Terror Hall hit the vital point, frowned slightly, and looked back and said:

"Don't touch it."

Seeing this, Night Terror Hall pulled out his fingers, slid up the gauze and in front of him, and held his conscience:

"Anyway, just now in Huangmei County, the Blue Dragon Club also mentioned that you were here."

Fan Qinghe pretended to be reluctant, and when he heard this, he opened his eyes again, and turned back a little dazed:

"What do you do when you mention me?"

"I said I was going to the palace to steal a knife, and Qinglong would help me hire a master, saying that the thief was not easy to contact, so I could only ask the ghost hand Li or something......"

"They should go and invite the witch, that's what they call the thief...... Whew~......"

As soon as Fan Qinghe said two words, he was twisted crispy and numb, and his tone was not very stable, and he was no longer talking nonsense at the moment, but just closed his eyes and let the patient make the medicine by himself......

——

Hoofs hooves dack......

When the silver moon was in the sky, a fast horse galloped across the street and came to the vicinity of the Red Mansion where the gambling stalls of the Qinglou were crowded.

Situ Yanfeng turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to the man, and quickly entered it, came to a room in the rear courtyard, raised his hand and tapped at the door:

Knock knock~

"Prince Wang?"

In the room, there was a constant sound of warblers and swallows, and the sound of shaking dice, and the doors and windows were closed and the interior scene could not be seen.

Situ Yanfeng was about to take a look through the crack in the door, when the footsteps came closer, and then the door opened, revealing a noble son dressed as a scholar, holding a folding fan, with a three-point drunken face:

"Master Situ, why are you here, why don't you come in and have a drink?"

"Alas, Wang Gongzi is polite, Situ has something important to come over, why don't we go to the side to talk?"

The son who came out is named Wang Jiwen, the grandson of the Wang family in the west of the city, and the nephew of the princess of the dynasty.

Hearing Situ Yanfeng's words, Wang Jiwen went out with a folding fan, came to the tea room next door and sat down, fiddling with the tea set:

"What was handed over to you, have you an eyebrow?"

Situ Yanfeng didn't sit down either, and stood next to him to help make tea:

"The person has been found, and he has arranged to go to Washington today and become a ...... guard"

When Wang Jiwen heard this, he was slightly displeased:

"Why don't you bring it here for me to see? Although Hua Qingzhi has disabled legs, she is very talented, and she has heard the name of the first talented woman in Yanjing, even the saint has heard of it, how can you just find a crooked melon and split jujube, how can you move her heart? ”

Situ Yanfeng smiled and said: "Don't worry, the person I'm looking for is absolutely reliable, although the appearance is half a step worse than that of the son, when it is placed in the entire Chengtian Mansion, it can also be called one in a million, and can speak sensibly, today I went to hire a guard, and I was selected by Miss Hua before I came to the door."

"I didn't bring it over for Childe's attention, but also for the sake of Childe's reputation, for fear that the news would leak. Gongzi wants to see it, and when he arrives in the country, he will naturally be able to see it, if he thinks it's not good, don't ...... this reward Situ Mouwen"

Wang Jiwen saw the earth-shattering sound of Situ Yanfeng's chest, and he didn't say anything, took out the silver ticket from his sleeve and put it on the tea case:

"Situ is in charge of affairs, I am naturally relieved. However, this matter is more urgent, Hua Qingzhi found the medicine, and her leg will be healed soon, if the saint moves the mind of the crown princess, you should know the consequences. ”

"What does Childe mean?"

"This matter, you have to push it on, such as arranging someone to rob the road, let the person you find, and come to a hero to save the beauty......"

“？”

When Situ Yanfeng heard this bad idea, he hurriedly waved his hand:

"I'm afraid it's not good, the martial arts of the person I'm looking for is not low, Hua Junchen seems to follow, arranging people to act, basically there is no return, no one will take this errand......"

Wang Jiwen folded his fan and patted his palm: "Our Beiliang is full of bandits, why do you need to act?" There are not a few bandits in Xiagou County, who are engaged in the kidnapping of tickets, and the government has not caught them. You're so well-informed, you should be able to find someone......"

Situ Yanfeng frowned: "Childe means to use them, let them go to death, and brush up the merits of the people we are looking for?" I'm afraid this is not in line with the morality of the rivers and lakes......"

Wang Jiwen took out another silver ticket and put it on the table:

"Those people are the ones who tied up meat tickets to bring disaster to the people, and the head of Situ operated secretly, and he used the hands of the Hua family to get rid of them, which is considered a righteous act......"

Situ Yanfeng was embarrassed: "That's the truth, but that group of bandits, if they don't die, come back one or two, Situ will have to be wiped out......"

Wang Jiwen sighed and took back the silver ticket:

"Wealth is in danger, since the head of Situ doesn't dare to earn this silver, he just stops. Come on, go to the city and call Li Laosi......"

"Slow!"

Situ Yanfeng saw that Wang Jiwen was about to find other tooth shops, so he hurriedly held down the silver ticket, gritted his teeth and said:

"Situ did this, but at the risk of ruining his reputation and dying all over the house, Wang Gongzi had to add some silver."

"Well, that's right......"

……

——

Following.

The sun had just jumped over the mountain, and Washington, which was located on the outskirts of the city, had opened its doors, and the maids carried large and small boxes and loaded them into the carriage.

On the stone road outside the gate of Washington, three figures walked forward, and the night terror hall was dressed in a green robe and a small hat, and a single knife hung on the waist mountain, dressed as an ordinary guard, and walked in the front.

Qinghe, who has been worked hard all night, has a very good complexion, because he has to be favored by the public, he has not eased up at this time, and his eyes are still a little fluttering. However, her current disguised identity is a poor woman in Huangmei County, wearing only a coarse cloth skirt and a floral headscarf on her head to hide her appearance, looking ordinary and uneye-catching.

Zheyunli is also dressed quite plainly, and she also wears pigtails, because the face of the melon seeds is small, she looks like a wild girl in the fourteenth or fifteenth century, and she said suspiciously when she walked:

"Cousin, did you carry me to the bed and lie down after you put me to sleep last night?"

"Otherwise, you can go over on your own?"

"I was awake, he didn't do anything to you, he took off his shoes and covered the quilt and went out."

"Alas~ I know that my cousin is a chivalrous man, and I don't think about it, I'm just afraid that I won't sleep well......"

……

The bird had no way to disguise, so he could only shrink into the package at this time and be held by Yunli, because the bird was sleeping in the morning, and there was no movement at this time.

When I came to the gate of Washington, I saw Steward Wang standing at the door with a roster, and under the steps were more than a dozen guards, standing with their backs straight, and they were taking a roll call:

"Liu Wu."

"Here!"

"Hua Ying."

"Here!"

……

Seeing this, Night Terror Hall turned around and said:

"You wait here, Luzhu will take you in to change your clothes later, just listen to Luzhu's arrangement." I'll report first. ”

Fan Qinghe's mind was full of last night's absurdity, and he was a little absent-minded, so he just nodded, while Zhi Yunli had strange eyes and whispered:

"Shocking cousin, do you really deserve to be a subordinate?"

"Alas, the eldest husband can bend and stretch, just disguise, I'll go first."

After the Night Terror Hall finished speaking, he walked quickly to the gate of Washington.

Steward Wang took the roll call with the register, and when he saw the night terror hall running over, he put the book down:

"Hua'an, the rules at home, every morning and a moment, you have to gather in front of the door, let the foreman assign errands, and you will be fined three dollars for being late.

The Night Terror Hall came to stand next to several of the guards, and nodded:

"Understood."

Steward Wang glanced at the twelve guards with his hands behind his back, and continued to speak:

"Miss instructed last night that after breakfast today, we will set off for Yanjing. The twelve of you are accompanying the guards, follow Huaning to go over, and the Mid-Autumn Festival will come back, if there is any inconvenience, just say now, Miss is in danger of the sky, don't make trouble halfway. ”

The twelve guards present, except for the night terror hall, are all long-term workers of the Hua family, and naturally have no objections to the arrangement of the head of the family.

Seeing this, Steward Wang nodded:

"Alright, let's go eat. Hua'an, you come with me. ”

Night Terror Hall stepped up the stairs, came to Steward Wang's side, and asked:

"Does the king's steward have any orders?"

The steward did not speak, and when he entered the door and turned the shadow wall, he arched his hand and said:

"Master, someone is here."

When the Night Terror Hall looked up, it could be seen that there were many landscape trees planted in the spacious compound behind the shadow wall.

Hua Junchen, dressed in a robe, holding a sword, practicing the sword in the middle of the cross trail, the swordsmanship is the 'Wandering Bee Sword', the housekeeping martial arts of the Huayan Pavilion in the North Liang is known for its agility and agility, and it is famous in the North Liang.

Looking at Hua Junchen's posture without overnight horror, he should belong to the 'paper talk school', that is, there is a lot of theoretical research, and all aspects seem to be very professional, but they follow too much dogma and have no spirituality.

This situation is mostly the same as the reason for being stupid - natural resources are envious of others, but because of their identity, they basically have no chance to do it, and their opponents are also in a sense of proportion when they compete, and they will not fail to talk about martial arts, resulting in a very high level of martial arts and a thick foundation, but the actual combat experience is zero.

When the steward had finished his salute, he found that the new guard seemed to be motionless as if he were wood, and he looked the old man up and down, and was immediately annoyed, and reminded:

"Hua'an!"

"Oh."

Out of martial arts habits, Night Terror Hall secretly studied Uncle Hua's flower fist embroidered legs, and really forgot his identity, and hurriedly bowed when he heard the words:

"It's the first time I've seen such a profound swordsmanship, and I hope the master won't blame me for losing my mind for a while."

Hua Junchen was born in a big family, he has been obsessed with martial arts since he was a child, and now he is in his forties, and he is also considered to have a great reputation in Chengtian Mansion, although in the eyes of Night Terror, he is a fledgling with no experience in the rivers and lakes, and his actual combat ability is limited, but no matter how weak he is, the foundation is still here, and he is also a master in the rivers and lakes.

At this time, Hua Junchen was practicing the most handsome swordsmanship in the entire Northern Liang, and his body was quite elegant and agile, without the attainments of a half-step martial artist, he couldn't see any flaws at all.

Sassy –

After finishing a set of 'Wandering Bee Sword' in a chic manner, Hua Junchen put away the sword behind him, pressed down with one finger in his left hand, and put on a high-spirited sword collection style, and his voice was full of immortal wind bones:

"I'm young, but my eyesight is good. I have been practicing martial arts for many years, and I have dabbled in both northern and southern martial arts, and I will be able to learn advanced martial arts, but there is more than this, if there is any difficulty in practicing martial arts in the future, you can ask questions. If you have a good understanding and are diligent, you will not be stingy with passing on a hand or two. ”

Night Terror Hall naturally didn't complain about Uncle Hua, and said along the way:

"Thank you, Master for appreciation."

Hua Junchen didn't know why, no matter how he looked at the night terrors, he felt pleasing to the eye, just like an old friend who had met in his previous life, with a sense of déjà vu. He nodded, and added:

"What moves did you learn?"

There were too many Night Terror Church members, and they responded:

"Miscellaneous kung fu, better at knife skills, I have learned to break the blade before."

Hua Junchen nodded and said: "The Breaking Blade Knife is a military formation knife technique, and most of the border warriors have practiced it, but this knife is easy to learn, but it is difficult to practice." You give me a knife and let me see how the heat is. ”

“……”

Night Terror sighed secretly, stepped forward slowly, and took off the saber he bought from his waist, wanting to play casually twice to show a flaw and make Uncle Hua happy.

But before he could do anything, there was a gurgling sound in the verandah behind him.

Night Terror Hall looked up, and it could be seen that Green Bead was running fast in a wheelchair, killing him directly from behind.

Hua Qingzhi sat in a wheelchair, with three points of annoyance on her face, seeing that her father was a conspicuous bag in front of the martial saint in the morning, she wanted to say a few words but it was not easy to point it out, so she could only lecture from afar:

"Dad, why are you messing around with the guards again? My mother said that you should pay attention to your identity, and if you do this again, I will sue my mother! ”

When Hua Junchen heard this, his brows furrowed.

After all, he was just pointing out the new guards, and he didn't fight the guards in the name of fighting, and before he could do anything, the girl hurriedly ran to protect the calf, did he really fall in love with this wild boy?

However, the girl wanted to complain to her mother, and Hua Junchen couldn't say anything, so she had to give up at the moment:

"Martial arts practice martial arts, how difficult is it to get a word of guidance from a master? Qingzhi, in the future, these words will be said in private. Hua'an, don't worry about it, I'll guide you when you get on the road. ”

Hua Qingzhi was pushed to the side of the compound, and when she saw that her father was still pretending to be a master in front of the martial saint, her embarrassing toes were arched, and she said:

"Dad, why don't you go to Beijing this time, my mother is so depressed at home alone......"

When Hua Junchen heard this, he really felt that his daughter had no rules, he went with him, he was afraid that the cabbage would be arched by this wild boy, and if he didn't follow, he was afraid that he would have to be a grandfather directly in a few months, so he said seriously:

"Now the situation is so grim, you enter Beijing alone, if your father doesn't follow, you can't count on Hua'an who just recruited you for safety?"

So what's not?

Hua Qingzhi felt that her father was following, and there was one more person dragging the night boy back, but she really couldn't say it clearly, so she said:

"Daddy will go back to the back house first to say goodbye to my mother and grandfather, and I'll set off immediately."

When Hua Junchen saw his daughter's appearance, he really felt that he was not a woman, so he shook his head and left with his hands.

After Hua Qingzhi saw her father go away, she turned her head to look at the courtyard:

"Steward Wang, you go and make arrangements, and set off after eating. Huaan, you come to help me move things. ”

Seeing that Uncle Hua was gone, Night Terror Hall also breathed a sigh of relief, came to Hua Qingzhi's back, and helped push the wheelchair:

"Leaving this morning?"

Hua Qingzhi sat in a wheelchair and waited until she walked for a while, and there were no other people around, before she sighed lightly:

"Childe is busy with running errands in Beijing, I'm a weak woman, how dare I delay......"

Night Terror shook his head and smiled, "Thank you very much." The two friends I brought with me were waiting outside the house, and the birds were also there. Can you arrange it for me? ”

Hua Qingzhi had planned it last night, and turned her head at this time and said:

"Luzhu, you go and bring the guests in, you look at the arrangement, when you set off, let them follow me in the carriage, if the lord asks, you will say that I asked you to find the cook or maid, and the snow eagle has just been bought."

"Okay."

Seeing this, Lu Zhu nodded hurriedly and ran out.

Hua Qingzhi waited until Lu Zhu left, and then spoke:

"Daddy has been martial arts since he was a child, and he likes to learn from others, but because of my business, my mother doesn't allow him to toss these things, so he can only come secretly with the guards in private, and you don't laugh at ......"

Night Terror Hall said: "Obsessed with practicing martial arts, it is a good thing for the people of the rivers and lakes, Uncle Hua was just born in a big family by mistake, if it is placed in the people of the rivers and lakes, it must be a real master, how can I laugh." ”

Hua Qingzhi knew that her father was powerful, but she still shook her head and said:

"The rivers and lakes are nothing more than fighting and killing, and when you are a daughter, how can you want your father to lick blood from the knife all day long. In fact, you are the same, you are so smart, and your literary style is not bad, if you take a career in office, you will definitely be able to get ahead, you fight and kill outside all day long, and you are often in danger, I can't say anything, but your confidantes, how can you not worry. ”

Night Terror sighed: "You can't help but do things in front of you, and you can only wait until you're done......

……

The two of them chatted so casually, and soon came to the back of the house.

After all, the Night Terror Hall hung up the identity of a guard, and it was not easy to take the place of Green Bead's position and serve closely, so he helped the maid and the family to move various items to the carriage.

Hua Qingzhi, as the daughter of a family, will definitely not only carry a small package when she goes to the capital to study, but also a carriage of musical instruments, chessboards, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc.; There are also clothes, calligraphy and paintings, etc., as well as Hua Junchen's sustenances for the princes and nobles, all of which were hard packed into five cars.

and the entourage was more, Hua Qingzhi brought a personal maid, and there were twelve of the remaining guards; Although Hua Junchen's martial arts are very high, as the eldest son of the family, he can't open the road by himself, and he also brings guards, plus family members, stewards, and maids, adding up to more than 40 people.

After cleaning up, Night Terror pushed Hua Qingzhi to the gate of Washington and moved the wheelchair into the wide carriage; Hua Qingzhi was helped into the carriage by the maid.

And Fan Qinghe and Zheyunli, after being dressed up by Lu Zhu, also became the accompanying cook and the little maid at this time, and were taken by Lu Zhu to the carriage behind, because there were indeed more people, and Lu Zhu was the eldest lady's henchman, and the family guards naturally didn't ask anything.

Mrs. Hua really loves her granddaughter, and at this time, she came to the door with a cane and told her granddaughter all kinds of things.

Hua Junchen's wife was obviously reluctant to leave home with her daughter-in-law, her eyes were red, but her tone was very fierce, and she told Hua Junchen not to mess with the martial artists.

After Hua Qingzhi's father and daughter said goodbye to their families, the team set off directly.

As a second-class guard, Night Terror Hall naturally couldn't run to the young lady's carriage and sit, at this time, he rode on a horse, and walked with Hua Ning left and right, walking next to Hua Qingzhi's carriage.

Hua Ning suddenly bumped into Lord Yama yesterday, and it seemed that he hadn't returned to his soul yet, sitting with his back straight, with a visible restraint with the naked eye, but he didn't dare to show it.

Gollum......

Soon, the convoy left the Hua family's manor and got on the official road back and forth.

Hua Junchen knew that he was not a person who could sit and live by looking at his personality, and after staying alone in the carriage for a while, he saw that he was far away from home, so he raised the curtain of the car, and wanted to call the night terror hall to go over and continue to instruct martial arts or something.

But before he could speak, he suddenly noticed that there was a hairy round head next to the window of the girl in front of him, looking out.

Hua Junchen was stunned for a moment, and looked through the window:

"What a fat bird, where did this come from?"

"Tss

Bird Bird had just been woken up by the lame sister, and was observing where this was, and when he heard this, he exploded his hair directly.

The green beads in the carriage hurriedly hugged the bird in and responded:

"Miss went shopping yesterday, bought it casually on the street, and hired a cook and maid, she was busy in the morning, and forgot to tell the master."

Hua Junchen, as the son-in-law of a family, naturally didn't care about recruiting a cook or something, because he was bored in the car, and said:

"Everyone, what do you say about touching fish and walking birds? Bring the bird to your father. ”

Hua Qingzhi didn't dare to take the night boy's war pet to her father to tease, and responded:

"This bird is afraid of life, and he doesn't dare to see people, so he will show his father when he is mature."

Hua Junchen felt that this girl was raised for nothing, so he had to pull the curtain and lean on the carriage to take a nap......
