Chapter 21: Jin Yiwei (4)
Xiang Chong hurriedly smiled: "Thank you for your kindness, if you have the opportunity, your subordinates will definitely pass!" Ji Lifan was still about to speak, and someone in the house said leisurely: "Old Ji, forget it, let the two little cubs go back quickly, we still have something to discuss, Grandpa Zhuang is waiting for us!" The voice of the person who spoke was majestic, but he could hear that it was the voice of a eunuch, presumably a father-in-law, Ji Lifan restrained his smile and said respectfully: "Yes!" "Wave for us to go.
We walked out with a sigh of relief, let out a long breath to Chong, twisted our bodies, and said, "This man is so angry, it hurts me to death." He muttered again: "It's strange today, what are the four hundred households of Dongchang doing here?" I didn't feel strange and said, "Why is Dongchang so powerful?" Xiang Chong didn't say much, and said: "You'll know in the future, and I don't know very well, but Jinyi Weili said, don't offend the people of Dongchang." Then he said mysteriously: "Gu, Qian Baihu, and that Tang Baihu, plus this Ji Baihu, are all well-known figures in Jinyiwei, even if it is Liao Qianhu, they also give them a little thin noodles, but in the eyes of Dongchang's father-in-law, they are similar to us!" ”
I said "oh", and wanted to ask again, but I heard the sound of gongs, and I saw a team of people coming from the front street, the gongs were struck loudly, the colorful flags were fluttering, and four or five tall horses opened the way in front, one of them was a girl with a goose egg pink face, big eyes and a god, pink face and red lips, and her body was also very petite, dressed in a strong suit, riding on a horse, heroic, but with a little arrogance, and the rest were all family members, one by one, proud. The group is very dazzling, I don't know which wealthy family it is?
Xiang Chong was fascinated, I couldn't help but pull him, Xiang Chong grinned, and said in a low voice: "This young lady is Miss Ningxi, the daughter of Shou Ninghou, and she is also the niece of the current queen. Don't look at people who are beautiful, young, and ruthless! I don't like to be a female worker, I like to ride a horse and shoot arrows, and I have learned a lot about boys' behavior, and we have suffered a lot with her. I should have gone out to play today, but fortunately, I didn't let the brocade guard follow. In the past, when we traveled, we had to follow a warrant, this young lady climbed high and waded far, climbed mountains and crossed rivers, not a problem, but also liked to tease us errands. As he spoke, his face was a little sad.
I saw that he was miserable, and I didn't feel a little sympathy. Who knew that he suddenly smiled and said: "However, although this young lady is a little domineering, she is generous in rewarding, not at all like her stingy father!" "Half a day together, we have been acquainted, he is like a partner in the countryside Hu Haisan, I have been holding back my own nature, now look at the young lady beautiful, unconsciously smiled: "This young lady's daughter's body, how can I be willing to be with you?" You must be thinking nonsense, right? Xiang Chong shook his head and said: "This Zhang family is the mother's family of the current queen, powerful and powerful, Miss Ning Xi is spicy by nature, just now it is not that she doesn't like female workers, and it is not a problem to dance with guns and sticks, we have gone out with her, and it is indeed a difficult lord to serve." I saw that he was serious, and smiled unconsciously: "You have also gained a lot of benefits, haven't you?" ”
Xiang Chong grinned and said, "This makes you see, we are errand servants, we have sweet mouths and diligent hands, and we must have good fruits to eat." ”
Xiang Chong said, while taking out a few fruits from his arms, and said: "Take the sheep by the hand, I could have sat there and eaten a few lights, which can be counted as catching the wind for you first, I don't want to be disturbed by those people!" I took a fruit and said with a smile: "Thank you, the future is long, there is a chance!" We are brothers, blessed and shared! Xiang Chong nodded happily, patted me on the back, and said, "You are so strong!" ”
As he was talking, the team of people and horses in the Hou Ye's Mansion had already walked on the bridge, and the pedestrians on the road had been let go to both sides, but out of nowhere came a fortune teller, wearing a gray corrugated hat, wearing a faded royal blue straight jacket, pulling a pair of cloth shoes, his eyes were straight, with a smile on his face, holding a sign in one hand, and a bamboo pole in the other hand, although his steps were staggering, he walked forward without any scruples, looking like a blind man. The two housekeepers who opened the way in the front team hurriedly stepped forward to stop them, shouting, "Get aside, pull aside." The fortune teller did not know whether he did not hear it, or whether he deliberately did not go, but still walked forward, and the family was impatient, and reached out to pull the fortune teller, and the fortune teller seemed to see it, and without waiting for them to come near, he walked a few steps, and actually passed through the two.
We were surprised, but we saw that the fortune teller was still moving forward slowly, almost crashing into the middle team. That Ning Xi looked in his eyes, let the fortune teller move forward, stay close, the horse whip flicked, "snapped" sound, directly hit the top of the fortune teller's head, the fortune teller seemed to slow down, as if turning around, the horse whip actually dodged, the bamboo pole lightly, actually hit the horse's left leg, the horse "neighed", the leg was weak, and collapsed to the ground, Ning Xi fell off the horse in the screams of everyone, thanks to her smart body, her feet had already left the stirrups, but she was also lying on the ground, before Ning Xi got up, the fortune teller bamboo pole had been pointed straight over. Ningxi's horse whip was not ambiguous, suddenly rolled over, wrapped around the bamboo pole, the fortune teller said "huh", his hand was loosened, the bamboo pole actually flew to Ningxi, Ningxi hurriedly whipped away, the fortune teller hurried forward, holding the bamboo pole, the two family members suddenly pounced, the fortune teller bamboo pole left and right, hit the chest of the two, the family suddenly fell to the ground, and he still ran to Ningxi, the bamboo pole was clicked again. This man is definitely a kung fu man, and he is not blind, he is an assassin!
Seeing that Miss Ningxi couldn't whip back, her face showed a look of panic, I said "not good", and the fruit in my hand "swished" over, if it was a stone, it would naturally be urgent and fast, but it was too late, but it was also full of strength, hitting the back of the fortune teller's head, the fortune teller was also agile, the fruit had not yet come close, he "snapped" and turned the bamboo pole and knocked down the fruit. I didn't even think about it, and ran over it.
Taking advantage of the fortune teller's hesitation, the family came over to help Ning Xi. The fortune teller looked at me coldly, he was not blind at all, and the family saw my identity and said, "You are Jinyiwei, right?" Hurry up and catch him, he assassinates Miss! The fortune teller sneered, the bamboo pole hit me directly, I dodged, and behind me Xiang Chong pulled a wooden root to me out of nowhere, shook out the waist card and said: "Jinyiwei is handling the case here!" ”
He was just bluffing, but the family members had already flocked to protect Ningxi, and the fortune teller looked around, then looked at us and said, "You Jinyi guards are here?" Xiang Chong pretended to be mysterious and said, "Of course, who are you?" The fortune teller looked around and hesitated: "It turned out to be the lackey of the Zhang family!" Anyway, it's cheaper for her today, and the old man will go! As he spoke, he was leaving. I just wanted to move the wooden root forward, but Xiang Chong grabbed me and said, "Wait, protect Miss Ningxi!" ”
I hesitated, and the fortune teller walked away, and the family did not dare to come forward. When I turned around, I saw Xiang Chong smiling and letting the maid help Ning Xi up, while he stood aside, thinking that he would be praised, Ning Xi raised his head, glanced at us, but said: "That person is an assassin, you are a Jinyi guard, why don't you chase it?" Xiang Chong was slightly embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "Okay, you protect the good lady, let's chase it!" "As soon as he glanced at me, we hurried after the fortune teller.
There are people on the street, how to find this fortune teller? We chased blindly for a while, but there was no trace, Xiang Chong was twisting and pinching, and he was a little panting, and he could see that he didn't have much ability, so he walked to a place, waved his hand at me, and said, "You are walking too fast, I can't keep up." Forget it, we can't find it, let's go back. ”
I was not familiar with life, and I couldn't tell the difference between east and west, north and south, so although I was surprised by what Xiang Chong was doing, I still listened to him. We took a few steps back and said to Chong: "I didn't expect you to still have some ability, and in the Zhenfu Division, you are also very remarkable, so the future will be even more limitless!" Then he frowned and said, "I just have some strength, but my kung fu is ordinary." Back then, it was also because of some of my grandfather's military exploits, so I inherited it. You are upright, capable, and promising. As he spoke, there was a lot of envy in his eyes.
Although I gradually knew that this father-in-law Zhang Yong must be a big person, so he would get a lot of care, but I didn't think about it, and I didn't have time to think about it, but what he said made me a little embarrassed, in fact, I have always been thick-skinned, and Hu Haisan bragged a lot together, but when I grew up over the years, I was strictly regarded by my father and didn't dare to make a mistake, so I smiled at the moment: "What is not promising, everyone is happy to be together." Brothers are of one heart and work together to break gold! Didn't you say that? Blessed to share! ”
