Wei Beiwang was destined to run in vain, and Qin Feng was no longer in the house.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Qin Feng remembered the agreement with Zhao Siqi, and in the afternoon, Qin Feng asked Xixiang to bring a message to Mrs. Qin, saying that friends were invited to eat and drink today, and he hoped to allow it.

Mrs. Qin felt sorry for her beloved son, so she naturally responded, and was worried about the safety of her beloved son, so she specially ordered Huanniang to go with her.

Qin Feng went out at the right time, because he had agreed with Zhao Siqi first, so he went straight to the Qiushui Pavilion in the south of the city, but when he passed by the Tianci Square in the city, a thin young man behind him aroused his vigilance.

This young man has been following him silently.

The faint smell of wheat roe emanating from the young man's body was captured by Qin Feng, who had a keen sense of smell, as soon as it appeared, with this unique smell on the young man's body, Qin Feng quietly detoured three streets, and this smell also followed three streets.

The young man's ability to follow is extremely high, even if he is a Huan Niang who has cultivated and stepped into the spiritual realm, he doesn't know at all, if it weren't for Qin Feng's extraordinary smell instinct, he really wouldn't have noticed that someone was following.

At this moment, Qin Feng could basically conclude in his heart that this young man must be the young man who deliberately bumped into him at the calligraphy and painting market in the west of the city that day, and finally mysteriously disappeared into the Gujian Inn.

Today is the second time that Qin Feng has walked out of the Great Prince's Mansion, and he was followed by this young man soon after, if the appearance of this young man last time made Qin Feng unable to fully confirm whether it was aimed at him, but at this moment, this young man followed him for three streets, and naturally it could be concluded that this person was most likely not good.

Huan Niang, you will wait for me in front of the "big shopkeeper" soldier shop, and help me buy a good treasure knife casually, and I will send it to a friend. Qin Feng detoured to the Tongtian block in Chengnanfang City, which specializes in selling blades and armor, looked around, saw the largest military inspection shop in the center of the street, and whispered to Huan Niang.

Huan Niang nodded, and then walked towards the big shopkeeper Bingjian Shop, and then Qin Feng's speed increased slightly, and when he walked through the street, he suddenly turned left and entered another street.

After turning the corner, Qin Feng did not continue to move forward, but directly entered the first shop on the street.

This is a blacksmith shop, specializing in helping people build weapons, business should not be very good, it closed early, but the shop door is not closed.

When Qin Feng walked into this shop, he heard a hoarse and low shout: "It's closed today, you have to fight weapons, and you will come back tomorrow." ”

This voice is very strange, with a heavy accent, it should not be made through the vocal cords, but by the vibration of some foreign body, and the strange thing is that this sound seems to explode in Qin Feng's ears.

Even stranger was that the blacksmith shop was empty, and there was no one around.

Qin Feng didn't have time to explore the weirdness of this blacksmith shop too much, so he just silently wrote down the name of this blacksmith shop, "Gu Yan".

With a fish leap, Qin Feng quickly jumped out of the blacksmith shop, and flew towards the young man who had just turned the corner and followed him. The young man was also alert, and when he noticed the movement on his side, he turned his head to stare at Qin Feng, and in an instant, he looked at each other, and Qin Feng saw the young man for the first time.

The first impression of this young man is delicate, the second impression is clean, and the third impression is the eyes.

A strand of black hair covered the corner of the young man's left eye, adding a bit of mysterious nobility to his smart eyes with contempt for everything. There is a hint of cunning.

Qin Feng has been undercover for many years, and a pair of eyes can discern his true face from various subtle changes in a person's face within a breath, and he can know at a glance that this young man has used a disguise technique.

Moreover, the Adam's apple at the boy's neck is obviously fake, he is not a teenager, but a girl!

Qin Feng turned his palm into a claw, and attacked the girl's right shoulder joint with one hand, the girl condensed Qin Feng with an indifferent face, and was stunned at first, obviously feeling a little incredible because she was discovered, and then a mocking smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and her body was light and agile, and Qin Feng was bound to be caught.

Qin Feng was horrified, such a close distance, coupled with his unexpected grab, this girl was unavoidable, but at the moment when his palm was close to the girl's shoulder, he saw a faint light flash from the young man's wrist, and then the whole person was suddenly restrained and couldn't move.

This feeling is far more terrible than being controlled by one's own body, it is a kind of mystery of time and space imprisonment, one's body, breathing, and heartbeat all stop, and everything in the world also stops running at that moment, the wind does not move, the water does not flow, and even the sun loses its brilliance in an instant.

Only the girl could walk freely.

This feeling of prohibition was fleeting, and Qin Feng even suspected that it was an illusion. After a moment of distraction, the girl escaped Qin Feng's capture and ran into the crowd in the street in the blink of an eye.

With his unique sense of smell and tracking ability, Qin Feng followed the girl all the way, and finally lost her trace at the moat pier in the east of Kyoto.

The moat wharf is large in scale, a busy scene, at a glance, the merchants from the south to the north are bustling, all kinds of fishy smells and the smell of labor sweat fill the entire wharf, and soon Qin Feng lost the trace of the girl.

I saw Qin Feng standing on the high ground of the dock and looking around, and suddenly a falling rock fell not far from his side, splashing a ripple of water.

Qin Feng looked sideways, on a fishing boat a mile away from the moat, the girl from before was grimacing at him, and she made a mocking gesture with a little finger, and then proudly got into the fishing boat.

Swimming against the current, the speed of this fishing boat was not slow at all, and after a while, it disappeared from Qin Feng's field of vision.

After several delays, Qin Feng was naturally late for the banquet, but it was far better to be late today than not to be late, together with Huan Niang, Qin Feng, the "old acquaintance" of Qiushui Pavilion, stepped into the land of wind and moon in this world for the first time.

"Oh, Lord Shizi, you are here, Lord Zhao has been waiting for you upstairs for a long time. ”

Qin Feng was greeted by a wealthy woman with excellent demeanor, this woman was very well maintained, and she couldn't tell her real age, as soon as Qin Feng entered the door, she hurriedly greeted her, and wanted to hold the hand of the eldest prince upstairs, but when she saw the Huan Niang with a delicate knife box next to her, there was a murderous intent hidden in her eyes, so she naturally didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

This rich woman is the old bustard in charge of the third floor, Xu Niang.

The architectural pattern of Qiushui Pavilion is the hollow living room in the front hall, and the attic room is built around, Xu Niang's shouting is extremely loud, even if the guests on the fourth and fifth floors are afraid that they can hear it clearly.

Xu Niang secretly gave a look, frowned slightly, and looked bitter, Qin Feng was on the verge of life and death in his previous life, how sophisticated, although he didn't know what happened, he could understand the deep meaning of Xu Niang's hint, and then said in the same voice:

"Zhao Yiwei is the best friend of this world, he lived, how could I not have it, I found a good knife a few days ago, but it took me a lot of thought, today I am going to send it to him, let this guy wait, that is as it should be. ”

"Hehe, the prince is really hearted, one day I can get such a reward from the prince, and I am willing to live ten years less, the prince, go upstairs here. ”

Qin Feng's shout naturally spread to Pingxinfang.

At this moment, Zhao Siqi was being escorted by Jin Wei, and Young Master Cai's threatening words made everyone present dispel the idea of interceding for him, Mingzhe protected his life, if Lu Yan was alone, he could still be accommodating for him, but today Young Master Cai is here, no one dares to be presumptuous.

But at this moment, Qin Shizi's voice came downstairs, and everyone clearly heard Qin Shizi say that Zhao Siqi was his best friend, and he had found a treasure knife for him to give away today, and they were all envious in their hearts, and they all said in their hearts:

This Zhao Siqi must have burned high incense on his ancestors, and he was able to become friends with the prince.

"Cai Gongzi, today's Zhao Yiwei's fortieth birthday banquet, set up a bean bud meeting in Qiushui Pavilion, I and other colleagues gathered together to celebrate it, how can we be complicit, and although the salary of the court is not high, but the banquet of 3,000 Luo coins will only have the opportunity to eat such a meal in forty years, I think I can still afford it, how can I be greedy and pervert the law?"

"Well said!" Qin Feng shouted, stepping into the gate of Pingxinfang, his brows slightly furrowed, vaguely murderous.

When she went upstairs, Xu Niang briefly talked about her previous upstairs experience in a few words, Qin Feng smiled indifferently, such an opportunity to buy people's hearts will naturally not be missed, and more importantly, this Cai Gongzi is obviously coming for himself.

As soon as Qin Feng entered the door, the two Jinwei escorting Zhao Siqi let him go, Qin Feng looked at Cai Ting, Lu Yan and the others coldly, pointed at Zhao Siqi and said, "Why are you letting go? Cai Gongzi said that this guy is corrupt and perverts the law, how can he be released, and he will be taken away." ”

Shiziye's words are much more weighty than Cai Gongzi, and the Daluo Empire also pays attention to fighting fathers, Qin Shizi's father, the right to speak is not comparable to General Cai Maoqing.

Qin Yu is the position of marshal, canonized as the great prince of the empire, in charge of the military department, in charge of the criminal department and the Ministry of engineering, and controls the military system, requisition, suppression, border defense, honor guard, post pass, stable, ordnance, Fu Kan, military registration, martial arts and other military administration, the power in his hands is monstrous, and above the court, only the father of the country, Yuwen, can faintly compete with it.

During the seven years of His Majesty's accession to the throne, His Majesty Luo Ling reduced part of the military power of the eldest prince, separated the Kyoto Janissary and the local military administration from the control of the seven armies, and established the Military Policy Office, which was under the control of the great general Cai Maoqing.

The eldest prince understands the deep meaning of this, and he doesn't care, the Kyoto forbidden army is responsible for the safety of the entire imperial city, and naturally it must be handed over to His Majesty, and the local armies of various counties and states have weak combat effectiveness, uneven military discipline, and huge costs, so it doesn't hurt to let them out, but it can ease Your Majesty's mind.

Therefore, compared with the Great Prince's Mansion, the Military Strategy Mansion is too much worse, and the natural identity of the prince is far above that of Cai Gongzi.

Qin Feng shouted and said, the two Jinwei who had previously taken Zhao Siqi didn't know what to do for a while, and looked at Cai Gongzi to ask, but Cai Gongzi kept staring at Qin Feng hatefully and did not give instructions.

"Then listen to the words of the prince and take it up!" Lu Yan was tough, he was obviously more experienced in dealing with this situation than Cai Gongzi, and he commanded the two Jinwei without hurry.

When Zhao Siqi was arrested, his throat was hit hard, and he couldn't speak, and he didn't recover a little until now, barely able to speak, and he heard Qin Shizi say in Qiushui Pavilion that he was his best friend, and his heart was suddenly full of confidence, and he was secretly excited, and he wished that he had better have some injuries on his body, so that he would presumably value himself more.

Zhao Siqi knew in his heart that Cai Gongzi and Qin Shizi had a long-standing grudge, first there was the "Fengbo Pavilion Incident", and then there was the tragedy of "Feng Family has a girl who has just grown up", and now, the two are faintly conflicting again because of the Mei Lady of the Gujian Inn.

The more miserable he was cleaned up by Cai Gongzi, the more he must have stood up for himself.

Zhao Siqi took the initiative to put his hands behind his back, and cooperated with the two Jinwei to escort him again, Qin Feng patted Zhao Siqi's shoulder, signaled relaxation, strode to the middle-aged man who spoke for Zhao Siqi before, and asked politely, "Is this ......?"

"Shizi, I am Brother Zhao's friend of life and death, Liang Guangping, and now I am serving in the supervision history of the Ministry of War. Liang Guangping looked serious and a little dissatisfied. Of course, this is not aimed at Qin Shizi, but resentment against Cai Gongzi for indiscriminately arresting his "brother of life and death".

"Lord Liang!" Qin Yu clasped his fists and shouted.

"Don't dare, don't dare, the prince and I are both friends of Brother Zhao, how dare you be an adult in front of the prince. Liang Guangping replied respectfully.

Qin Yu shook his head and said: "I don't have a reputation, I don't dare to be presumptuous in front of adults, may I ask Lord Liang, Zhao Siqi and Zhao Yiwei, who wants to arrest him today, and why was he arrested." ”

Liang Guangping raised his head slightly, with a sense of righteousness in his eyes, and responded loudly: "Today, Zhao Yiwei passed away, and it naturally cost a lot to invite guests in Qiushui Pavilion, and Cai Gongzi suspected that Zhao Yiwei was corrupt and perverted the law, so he escorted him." ”

"What a Cai Gongzi, he is the same as me, he has no merit and fame, what right does he have to detain an incumbent court official? The Imperial Code clearly stipulates that to detain and interrogate the six-rank officials of the imperial court, at least an official above the inspector department of the Criminal Department, or an official at the level of a squire of the Ministry of War, can he be put into custody, Cai Gongzi is a scholar, I don't know who gave you the right?"

"Qin Shizi's words are wrong, although Cai Gongzi has no merit and fame, but as a citizen of the empire, he is worried about the country and the people, and he should not be wrong, now there is a drought in Changzhou, the people are displaced, and he is sad about the wilderness, Cai Gongzi is worried about the world and hates to serve the country, but today I see these court officials holding a banquet here, spending all day and drinking, and his heart is sad. ”

Lu Yan took Qin Feng's words, with a tense face, twisted his eyebrows, and did not look at Qin Feng, but stared at Liang Guangping, and continued:

"After careful investigation by Cai Gongzi, I learned that the cost of this banquet was Zhao Yiwei's salary for four years, as a lieutenant of the Criminal Department, responsible for supervising the civil and military officials of the imperial court, I naturally knew that I was on an errand in the forbidden army, and there was no problem with his salary to stabilize the family's food and clothing, but to live such a luxurious life, there must be a suspicion of corruption during this period.

In addition, Sili Yuan recently received a report from Chengnanfang City, saying that someone in the forbidden army privately looted the store "security fee", and after thinking about it carefully, I ordered to take Zhao Yiwei back and ask him about the situation, what is wrong with this. ”

"As a lieutenant of the Criminal Department of the Imperial Court, although I have no right to detain officials of the imperial court, I have the right to interrogate officials below the fifth grade, Qin Shizi is proficient in imperial decrees, I must know, besides, today I just asked Zhao Yiwei to go back and ask a question, how can I detain him. ”

Lu Yan is experienced and calm, not only does he take the initiative to take the responsibility on his head, but he is also polite and courteous, and he is impermeable, Qin Feng secretly appreciates it in his heart, this ability to speak is not a skill, it is rare that Lu Yan is responsible.

The status of the prince is noble, his father is in charge of the criminal department, Lu Yan is in the criminal department, of course he knows the consequences of offending Qin Shizi, but even so, he still fights on the basis of reason, washes away the stain for Cai Gongzi, and resists this responsibility himself.

Mingzhe protects himself is the way to be an official, not everyone has this responsibility and courage, of course, it is not excluded that there are unknown interests between Cai Gongzi and Lu Yan.

"A few days ago, I met Zhao Yiwei with the ancient inn, so I asked Zhao Yiwei to call my colleagues, I invite you to eat and drink, today Qiushui Pavilion set up a banquet, it happens to be Zhao Yi's health day, the cost of this banquet is naturally borne by me. Do you mean that even I want to check it......"

Before Qin Feng finished speaking, Lu Yan heard half of it, so he grabbed the words and said: "I see, since it is Qin Shizi's treat, it is that I wronged Zhao Yiwei, and Lu Yan apologizes to Zhao Yiwei." ”

Lu Yan gave a look, and Jin Wei, who was holding Zhao Yiwei, let go and stood on the side, Lu Yan bowed to Zhao Yiwei and saluted, and said: "I swept Zhao Yiwei's Yaxing today, Lu Yan gave you a gift, since it was a misunderstanding, then I won't bother everyone anymore, and I will leave first!"

After speaking, Lu Yan made a gesture of invitation to Cai Gongzi, Cai Gongzi knew that Qin Feng was here today, he would definitely not be pleased, and stared at Qin Feng with a cold snort, but he was reluctant to leave.

This Lu Yan is also an old fox, he hurriedly got off the pole, and bent down to take the initiative to apologize, a big thing turned into a small matter, which made Qin Feng difficult again, but Cai Gongzi on the side, was unwilling, Qin Feng was happy in his heart, and he also wanted to know what kind of moth this guy wanted to play here, and immediately hummed:

"Zhao Yiwei, I heard that Mei Jianniang from the Gujian Inn plays the piano well, why didn't you invite her to your birthday banquet today?"

As soon as these words came out, Lu Yan secretly sighed in his heart, the so-called beating the snake and hitting seven inches, Qin Feng's words just hit Cai Gongzi's weakness.

Cai Gongzi lives to take peach blossoms, loves the country and loves the beauty more, is an infatuated son, Mei Jiaoniang since she came to the ancient inn, she fell in love at first sight and secretly admired herself, and she thought about it like crazy if she didn't see it for a day.

Qin Shizi is arrogant and lascivious, he is the head of the four evils in Kyoto, there are many women who are ruined at a young age, Mei Jianniang was targeted by him, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to live in the future.

How could Cai Gongzi tolerate someone harassing Mei Jianniang, he hurriedly walked in front of Qin Feng, twisted Qin Feng's collar, riveted it up, squinted his peach blossom eyes, and threatened with a hint of worry in his fierce expression:

"The surname is Qin, if you dare to touch a single hair of Mei Jianniang, I, Cai Ting, will work hard, and you will regret it. ”

"Cai Gongzi's life is so worthless? It's just a layman in the rivers and lakes, it's so worth your hard work, it seems that this Mei Jiaoniang has something different, she can make the eldest prince of the Military Policy Mansion so obsessed, I will invite her to the Prince's Mansion another day, so that I can study and study it carefully and taste her taste." ”

In the face of Cai Ting's threat, Qin Feng didn't think so, but because of the fact that he was being followed today, he wanted to take the opportunity to find out the origin of this mysterious woman, so he inevitably added another fire and made his words lighter.

Where can Cai Ting stand such a provocation, Qin Feng is notorious, and the overlord has done a lot of hard work, Feng Miaojia, the daughter of Feng Yulai, the king of Dan, and Jiang Youlan, the princess of the Principality of Tian'an, have all been ruined by this beast. Today, because of the grievances between the two, this beast set his sights on Mei Jianniang, and he hated it in his heart.

Cai Ting's inner murderous machine grew and spread wildly, and immediately regardless of his identity, he pushed hard, Qin Feng staggered back a few steps, only to see Cai Ting directly pull out his side sword, lunge to the left, with the sword in front of the point, a "jade broken Qi Lian" of Mozi's swordsmanship, raised his knee and stabbed straight at Qin Feng.

Lu Yan exclaimed: "Son, stop, don't do it." ”

Lu Yan knew that Qin Feng had no cultivation at all, and Cai Gongzi was so sharp that the prince couldn't take it.

It's a pity that it's still half a beat slower, Cai Ting runs the exercises, penetrating the aura into the long sword, its power is naturally extraordinary, this sword comes and goes suddenly, such a short distance, even if Qin Feng avoids the vital point, he will definitely be seriously injured.

At this moment of lightning and flint, a sword qi came from the east, only to see a cyan sword light that everyone dared not look directly, the sword light did not stop Cai Gongzi's forward stabbing force, but it divided the sword in Cai Gongzi's hand into two, and the two feet of the sword blade at the front end were smashed and shot down, Cai Gongzi's "Jade Broken Qi Lian" naturally would not hurt Qin Feng in the slightest.

The one who shot was Huan Niang.

Cai Ting squinted at Huan Niang, let out a sneer, and said disdainfully: "Qin Shizi, when will you come to this land of wind and moon with bodyguards? ”

came, as soon as Cai Ting's words came out, Qin Feng knew the purpose of this guy's coming to find fault today.

Qin Feng didn't know the origin of such a vulgar thing as the Blood War Sticker, but he knew this unwritten rule: the Blood War Sticker was a means for the children of Kyoto gentlemen to openly settle their personal grievances, who had the big fist, who had the final say, this kind of scornful way of solving the problem by force really made Qin Feng feel naïve, and even the name was vulgar.

The two sides of the bloody battle sticker agreed on the time, and passed the martial arts competition in the Fengbo Pavilion in the western suburbs of Kyoto, and won the battle, although there was no distinction between life and death, but it was inevitable to see blood for disability.

Two years ago, Qin Feng relied on his cultivation to be two small realms higher than Cai Ting, and it was also in this Qiushui Pavilion that the two of them were fighting for the Oiran of Liuyuan, Qin Feng gave Cai Ting a bloody battle sticker, Cai Ting knew that he couldn't beat it, but how could he admit it in front of the beauty, and he took it with a strong blood.

It can be said that feng shui takes turns, but I didn't expect that two years later, the situation was reversed, and now Qin Feng's cultivation is completely lost, how can he be the opponent of the heavenly rank Cai Ting in the qi realm?

Qin Feng smiled helplessly in his heart, this is out of the mix, sooner or later I still understand the truth, today's meeting, if I don't accept it, I'm afraid I won't be able to pass it.

The disciples of Kyoto are by no means as easy as ordinary people understand, in fact, they are not so easy to mix, not only to fight for their father, but also for financial resources, connections, and most importantly, for strength.

There is an unwritten rule, if the other party admits that he does not dare to accept it, the two will meet anywhere in Kyoto in the future, and the admitting party must avoid it, that is to say, if Qin Feng does not accept this bloody war sticker today, he will eat wine with Cai Ting in Qiushui Pavilion one day, and Qin Feng can only leave in disgrace.

The prince is young and vigorous, and the recent cultivation has failed, Zhao Siqi is worried that the prince will not be able to let go of the son, and he can't bear this breath and make the decision to hit the stone with an egg, so he immediately stepped forward and took the initiative to take the beam and said:

"Cai Gongzi, the prince is injured, and his cultivation has not recovered, at this time, he took advantage of the danger of the blood war sticker, but Cai Gongzi's face was lost, or this sticker, Zhao took it for the prince. ”

A hint of ridicule hung on the corner of Cai Ting's mouth, and he said contemptuously:

"Zhao Yiwei, do you have the qualifications to receive my blood battle sticker? But I still remember what you said, I heard that the prince became an idiot some time ago, but now it seems that the rumors are wrong. As for whether it has become a waste like the rumors, I don't know, but don't become a rat! It's okay, Qin Feng, don't say that I bullied you, today I Cai Ting let it go again, on the day of the bloody battle in the Storm Pavilion, I will never use a single point of spiritual power, I will compete with you to learn martial arts moves, do you dare to take it. ”

Wang Gongzi, who was watching the excitement on the side, walked to Cai Ting's side, and said in a strange manner: "Cai Gongzi, we are not strong, now Qin Shizi, I heard that the meridians have been abolished, and he is already a mortal, playing the piano and writing is okay. ”

Liang Guangping, who was behind Qin Feng, couldn't help but shake his head when he saw Cai Ting and Wang Gongzi's act of singing and harmonizing, and said secretly in his heart: "The prince is young, and he is fierce and aggressive, I am afraid that he will not be able to withstand such a radical general." ”

Sure enough, Qin Feng's face was grim, and he looked at Cai Ting and the others angrily and responded: "Since Cai Gongzi has said so, if this son of the world doesn't accept your bloody battle sticker again, he will really have no face to mix in Kyoto in the future, and on the eighth day of the next month, you and I will fight in the Storm Pavilion." ”

"Okay, the prince is so courageous, then on the eighth day of the first month of next month, I will invite some friends from Kyoto to come and see the style of the prince!"

The eldest prince Qin Yu, nicknamed Hades, is not an empty word, Qin Yu is ruthless in his methods, tough in style, and he is also a character who recognizes his relatives and does not recognize the care of his calves. Regarding some of the bloody methods of the eldest prince, Cai Ting and these teenagers have only heard of it, but Lu Yan, who works in the Criminal Department, has seen it with his own eyes, and he will inevitably be awakened by nightmares on a cold night.

After saying the scene of "Cai Gongzi is reckless, he is offended, and I hope that the prince will not take it to heart", Lu Yan did not say anything more, and forcibly pulled Cai Ting out of Pingxinfang in a hurry.

Outside the gate of Qiushui Pavilion, Lu Yan escorted Cai Gongzi into the carriage, and specially explained a few words to the assassin guards around him, and asked Zhongjin Wei to escort Gongzi back to the Military Mansion.

But Lu Yan was alone, walking towards the palace of Prime Minister Yuwen in the north of the city, and disappeared into the night.
