The one hundred and forty-eighth episode: Fuyi Opera Troupe
The sun rises in the east, the rooster cries in the morning, and the city of Chenzhou, which has been quiet all night, is back to its bustle and prosperity.
Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing finished washing and went downstairs to eat, when the gongs and drums sounded in unison in the market, and the voices of people were boiling. They thought it was fresh, so they ran to the door to see the excitement.
A group of tolerance catchers strutted from the east. The head catcher at the head is a man who is almost unconfused, he is tall and big, and his voice is strong and powerful.
The head catcher took the notice and showed it to the passers-by on both sides, and said to them: "Listen to the people of Chenzhou, the generalissimo of Hebei soldiers and horses, Lord Zhang, will arrive in Chenzhou in the near future, I hope you will not talk nonsense, talk about military affairs in vain, and the households and traders along the street must abide by the law. ”
After saying that, the head catcher glanced around, and when he saw Fu Tianpeng standing by the door with a long sword on his back, he immediately swaggered in front of him.
The head catcher tilted his head, and then looked at Fu Tianpeng with his sparrow eyes.
After a while, the head catcher coldly warned Fu Tianpeng that it was best not to make trouble, otherwise he would be put in prison.
With that, he walked ahead of the group again, and finally disappeared into the crowd.
Fu Tianpeng smiled faintly, turned his head and said to Zhao Xueqing: "Sister Qing, it is said that the new prefect Dong is upright, but now that I look at it, I know that the rumors in the market cannot be believed. ”
Before Zhao Xueqing could reply, an old man selling melons shouted at Fu Tianpeng: "Young man, you don't know anything, what are you yelling about?" ”
Fu Tianpeng hugged his fist at the old man and was about to leave. However, the old man stopped in front of him, and then told him that when Governor Dong first came to the palace, some things were co-organized by Ma Sanyi, the head catcher. This kid is flattering, sloppy, and does all kinds of messy things, but he doesn't do the right thing.
After listening to the old man's story, Fu Tianpeng asked with a smile: "Old man, since Ma Sanyi is so unbearable, why does Governor Dong still leave him in the yamen?" ”
The old man snorted, took over and said, "Governor Dong must have taken the time to test his subordinates, otherwise this guy will definitely get out." ”
After that, the old man carried the firewood and walked away without looking back.
Looking at the back of the old man leaving, Zhao Xueqing said to Fu Tianpeng: "Brother Tianpeng, this Lord Zhang is really very interesting, he was beaten by Hami Chi in Shuncheng and fled in despair, he didn't think about being ashamed and brave, and studied the tactics of war well, but he had the leisure to run to Chenzhou." ”
Fu Tianpeng clenched his fists and said with a sigh: "I hate the traitors of the court, and a good general like Yue Shuai, who is loyal to the country, was dismissed and kicked out of the temple. Instead, people like Zhang Jun are reused. ”
Zhao Xueqing said: "Brother Tianpeng, Zhang Jun is so happy and narrow-minded, he is not the material to be a marshal. ”
Fu Tianpeng didn't speak, his eyes looked into the distance, and his expression was a little more solemn.
After talking for a long time, Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing returned to the restaurant to find a place to sit down and eat.
The two drank and ate, chatting leisurely.
At this moment, five people came in from outside the door, all of them dressed in clothes, and they were dusty.
Walking in front was a gray-haired old man, about sixty years old. Although his whole person was thin and shriveled, his eyes were like torches, and his eyes were like the deep sea. Fu Tianpeng glanced at him, and the old man smiled at him.
The old man was followed by two men and two women, both seventeen or eighteen years old.
Among them, the girl in the navy blue soft gauze silk shirt turned her head to look at Fu Tianpeng, and then she saw that Fu Tianpeng was also looking at her.
The girl's face blushed, she lowered her head, and hurried away.
Zhao Xueqing picked up the chopsticks and knocked them Fu Tianpeng's head.
Said angrily: "I see your soul, let's go with others." Seeing one and loving one, when I find an opportunity, I have to tell Sister Ouyang and Sister Liu about today. See how they clean you up. ”
Fu Tianpeng rubbed his head and said with a smile: "Sister Qing, how dare I?" ”
Zhao Xueqing glanced at him and said casually: "You are a thief and a thief." ”
After Fu Tianpeng heard this, he quietly asked her: "Tell me, what kind of thief dare do I have?" ”
Zhao Xueqing's face turned red, and she lowered her head and stopped talking.
The old man and his entourage followed Xiao Er upstairs, and soon came down again.
He saluted to the shopkeeper and the full house of high-ranking friends, clasped his fists and said: "Everyone, the old decrepit Sun Chengyi is an artist who travels all over the world. Standing beside me were my four apprentices. Our troupe is called Fuyi Theatre. I will be performing here these days, and I hope you will have a lot of cheers. ”
Just after Sun Chengyi's words were finished, someone coaxed: "Hey, I said old Sun Tou, I see that these two female disciples of yours have beautiful faces, fine skin and tender meat, it is better to marry me." I see that you are old and send you to the end of your life, so you don't have to run around. ”
This person's words caused laughter from all the guests present.
The woman in blue was so angry that she raised her eyebrows, and she said to the man, "You can't spit ivory out of your dog's mouth. ”
The man sneered a few times and said to the woman in blue: "Girl, I want to ask you, have you ever seen a dog that can spit out ivory?" ”
The woman in blue was stopped by the man's words, and immediately became ashamed.
She swung her fist to teach the drunkard a lesson.
However, Sun Chengyi grabbed her, and then said with a smile: "Bixia, what are you doing?" We have to rely on the help of your uncles. If you get angry and cause trouble, won't it ruin your business? ”
Seeing Sun Chengyi showing weakness, the man threw a string of copper plates from his arms. He said: "You bad old man is acquainted, I am happy to be uncle today, and I will give you some face." ”
When he handed the copper plate to the old man's hand, his eyes did not forget to glance at the woman in blue.
This prodigal disciple said to Sun Chengyi: "Take good care of her, uncle, I will personally come to the door in a few days to propose marriage." ”
With that, he turned around and was about to leave.
Fu Tianpeng said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, what's wrong with Chenzhou?" When does a stinky fish and rotten shrimp come out? ”
The prodigal disciple glared at Fu Tianpeng with goldfish eyes, then pointed his finger at him and said, "Boy, who did you scold just now?" ”
Fu Tianpeng snorted coldly and said, "If you admit that you are not even as good as stinky fish and rotten shrimp, then you are talking about you." ”
The prodigal disciple swallowed his saliva, bared his teeth at Fu Tianpeng, turned around and left the restaurant.
Sun Chengyi came over again at this time to express his gratitude to Fu Tianpeng, and he warned Fu Tianpeng not to get into trouble for unnecessary trivial matters.
After the old man turned around, Fu Tianpeng saw that Bixia was looking at himself with beautiful eyes like water.
Zhao Xueqing coughed lightly and said, "Brother Tianpeng, your peach blossoms have arrived." ”
Fu Tianpeng yelled at her and followed her out of the restaurant.
The two came to a secluded place, and Fu Tianpeng asked Zhao Xueqing, how is Sun Chengyi?
Zhao Xueqing's eyes were angry, and she replied angrily: "What, do you want him to be your master?" ”
Fu Tianpeng said: "Sister Qing, what are these marginal words? ”
Zhao Xueqing smiled and replied in a silver voice: "It's really interesting to see you angry." ”
Zhao Xueqing laughed for a while, retracted her eyebrows, and told Fu Tianpeng that the Fuyi Opera Troupe was by no means an ordinary opera troupe, especially that Sun Chengyi.
Fu Tianpeng heard her say this, and also told Zhao Xueqing his thoughts. He said to Zhao Xueqing: "Sister Qing, Sun Chengyi's eyes are sharp, and his eyes give a feeling of deep sea, this person must have a deep inner kung fu." ”
Zhao Xueqing nodded.
Fu Tianpeng said to Zhao Xueqing: "Sister Qing, that Zhang Jun is going to Chenzhou soon, and a Fuyi opera troupe has popped up at this moment. What do I think might be the connection between the two? ”
Zhao Xueqing said: "Zhang Jun has no talent to command the army, after he goes down, wouldn't it be better for Yue Shuai to be able to regain the command seal?" What do you do with all this? ”
Fu Tianpeng shook his head, and then said, "I'm worried that this Fuyi Opera Troupe may be unfavorable to Yue Shuai. So I want to stay here and find out what they're doing. ”
Zhao Xueqing snorted: "I think you are a drunkard, you don't want to drink, and you found such a good excuse to stay, you want to take the opportunity to get close to Bixia." ”
Fu Tianpeng was anxious, reached out and hugged Zhao Xueqing in his arms, and said to her: "Sister Qing, I only have you in my heart." ”
The intimate behavior of the two was seen by a merchant.
Zhao Xueqing's face was like a scarlet cloud, and she kicked Fu Tianpeng.
She said ashamedly: "Brother Tianpeng is in public, you are going to die." ”
The two made up their minds to continue to stay in Chenzhou to see what moths Zhang Jun intended to produce, and to pay attention to the movements of the Fuyi Opera Troupe.
That night, the autumn wind rose, and the black clouds covered the moon. All the guests had already fallen asleep, and the door of the room next to Fu Tianpeng quietly opened.
Sun Chengyi said to his disciples, "Are you ready?" ”
The disciple replied, "Ready." ”
Sun Chengyi said: "When you go out of the window, don't make a sound. After climbing the eaves, close the windows. ”
The disciples whispered, and Sun Chengyi left with the four of them.
Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing saw that Sun Chengyi and the five of them went to the deciduous forest in the north of the city, so they also quietly followed behind.
In the collapsed ruined temple, three masked people appeared.
One of them said, "I will send you to sneak into the cities, waiting for an opportunity to steal the map of the city's defenses. Now that you have two ways to succeed, and the two of you have done nothing in Chenzhou, what is the use of leaving you? ”
The man in black who spoke, his eyes were fierce at this time, and he was about to put his kneeling men to death when he made a move.
The two men begged again and again, and the two of them told the man in black that Zhang Jun would come to Chenzhou in the next two days. At that time, he created an incident, and then went to Chenzhou Mansion to steal the city defense map. And there are already people in the government who have promised to help.
The man in black listened and asked, "You guys have a good idea, I don't know if that inside line is reliable?" ”
The two men said to the man in black, "Boss, please rest assured. That man is the head catcher of the government, and he is greedy for profit and forgets righteousness. We have spent a lot of money to buy him off, and promised to help him get rid of Dong Zhaozhi and let him sit on the throne of the prefect of Chenzhou. ”
The chief nodded, and then his eyes widened like eagles, reminding the two men that dogs that would bite their masters must not remain in the world.
The two subordinates understood, and they replied to the general seat that as long as the city defense map of Chenzhou was stolen, they would cut down the grass and eradicate it, even Dong Zhaozhi and Ma Sanyi.
Just when the three men in black were plotting to steal the plot, Sun Chengyi broke in with four disciples.
Sun Chengyi said to the three of them: "Bold thieves, they dare to come to the territory of the Great Song Dynasty to steal the map. ”
Seeing this, the two evil eyes emitted a terrifying cold light. He gritted his teeth and said to Sun Chengyi: "Old immortal, you dare to ruin my good deeds, I will kill you today." ”
After that, the head seat's footsteps swept wildly, and his palms were slapped out continuously, "Seeing the moon in a lonely mountain".
The sharp palm slapped towards Sun Chengyi.
