Chapter 41 Rules of the Rivers and Lakes
As soon as Du Wei finished speaking, Jiang Baizhan walked in and said, "Lady, what's the matter with these gifts?" Du Wei said: "Hua Xiong killed seven disciples of Tianfeng Sect at the Longmen Inn, and Tianfeng Men wants to invite the lady to come and testify and ask them to hand over Hua Xiong! You see that so many gifts have been sent." β
Jiang Baizhan looked at the gift, walked to Du Wei's side and whispered a few words, Du Wei listened: "What the official said is reasonable!," Jiang Baizhan left.
Guo Huai walked in and said, "Miss, Nangong Yunxia is here to visit!"
"Please let her in!" Du Wei said, looked at Meng Jiao and said, "Carry the gift down and put it away first." β
"Yes!" Meng Jiao replied, instructing her subordinates to carry the gift away.
Nangong Yunxia walked in, and after some noise, Nangong Yunxia sat down in the guest seat, and the maid in the house brought chrysanthemum tea to serve, Du Wei said: " Since I have encountered the matter between your faction and the Flying Eagle Castle, I will naturally not stand idly by, and I will definitely help you discuss it with the people in your Tianfeng Gate after you go back, and choose two people to go to the Flying Eagle Castle with me, but one of these two people must be strong in martial arts, and it doesn't matter if the other is weak in martial arts, just to be a witness, weak in martial arts, I can take my life to guarantee that he is okay, and those with high martial arts must compete with Hua Xiong, one-on-one fair competition, no one can interfere in the competition, including the people of Flying Eagle Castle and me, I can also guarantee that he is okay if I kill Hua Xiong, if my martial arts are not good and he is killed by Hua Xiong, I can't complain about anyone, and this matter must not be mentioned again in the futureγ β
"Okay! Thank you, Miss Du Wei, for your willingness to help!"
"Nangong Hall Master, go back and discuss with your family's protector, I hope this matter cannot be delayed, because the people in Xia and Flying Eagle Castle are still in a hurry to find someone. β
"Okay, let's go back and discuss!" Nangong Protector replied, Du Wei said: "Butler, send Nangong Hall Master!"
Meng Jiao walked up to Nangong Yunxia and said, "Nangong Hall Master, please." β
Nangong Yunxia hugged her fists at Du Wei and said, "Farewell!"
Du Wei hugged his fists and said: "I will not send it far away!"
After Nangong Yunxia left, Du Wei returned to the Jade Pavilion and wrote a letter to Hua Yishen, sending Kang Xu to Hua Yishen in the Jade Pavilion.
Xiaoxue sent chicken soup, and Du Wei took two sips and said: "This is a stewed soup of black chicken, with astragalus, codonopsis, atractylodes, jujubes, and yams, right?"
"I also added a trace amount of licorice, but I didn't expect the eldest lady to be able to tell the warm and tonic herbs when she drank the soup. β
"In the future, don't make soup with too many kinds of medicinal herbs, in the case that I don't have a special request, I generally stew chicken soup, and I can serve it with some codonopsis and yam. If you boil porridge, you can match a few more, such as lily, lotus seeds, white fungus, barley, but don't put too much lily, if bird's nest, you can put a little sugar, when you encounter the season of eating sweet cherries, bird's nest can be paired with a little sweet cherry. β
"Xiaoxue keep it in mind!"
"It's still a habit to live in the house, right?"
"I feel good here, the maids in the house are very good to me!"
"The maids and guys in the house are all good at fist and foot kung fu, when you are fine, learn some fist and foot kung fu with this maid Xiao Qiong of the Jade Pavilion. β
"Yes, Miss. β
Du Wei arrived at the hospitality hall, not long after he sat down, Guo Huailai reported that Ye Luying had come to visit, Du Wei went out of the house, saw Ye Luying and Wei Jinmei, Nangong Yunxia stood outside the door of the house, Du Wei said in a loud voice: "Yelu Protector and the two hall masters are invited to gather in the mansion quickly!"
After sitting down in the living room, the maid brought the tea brewed with chrysanthemum tea, Ye Luying drank two sips and was full of praise, and after a few small talks, Ye Luying said: "Miss Du Wei is willing to help, and I am grateful, but can this competition be chosen in Xuanwu Hall?"
Du Wei said: "I understand the meaning of Yelu Protector, if you go to the Flying Eagle Fort to compete, you will lose your aura before you fight, I don't know if it is or not?"
"Yes, if you lose your aura, you will lose the opportunity, and the dwarf will have three points, which will affect the performance of the competition. Ye Luying said.
Du Wei was not angry but smiled and said: "Since the Yelu Protector has put it forward, then we have to ask for a reply from the Flying Eagle Castle first, maybe they will agree, but three or five years later, maybe because of this request, they will ignore this competition, this is also inevitable, and I hope that the Yelu Protector will think twice!"
"What Miss Du Wei said is extremely negligent, so let's do it, the place of the fight is not in the Flying Eagle Castle, nor in the Xuanwu Hall, anywhere else. β
"Weizi really doesn't know what Yelu Protector is really worried about? Weizi has already made it very clear that the person who testified with Weizi's life guarantee will retreat with all his body, but as long as the person who competes with Huaxiong is sure that he can kill the other party, what is there to find fault with where to compete?"
"Miss Du Wei, please take care of this matter!"
"Okay, I will do my best to meet the demands of the Protector of the Dharma. β
"There is another thing I hope Miss Du Wei will agree, this is not indispensable to bring one witness and four witnesses, with four people, first of all, it is needless to say that you are brave, the main thing is to be down-to-earth during the competition. β
"What the Protector of Yelu said is that the Miko must ask the Lord of the Flower Castle for permission. If everything goes well, tomorrow morning we will be able to avenge the disciples of your sect!"
"Then I will say goodbye first and wait for good news. β
"Why don't you stay and have a homely meal in the house, it's never too late to leave!"
"There are a lot of people in your house, I'm afraid there will be too many disturbances, so I appreciate it with great enthusiasm and say goodbye!"
Du Wei sent the three of them to the outside of the house and hugged his fists and said: "Go slowly, I won't send it far." β
Ye Luying hugged his fists and said, "Please stay and say goodbye." β
In the evening, Kang Xu brought back Hua Yishen's handwritten reply, Du Wei read it and handed it to Jiang Baizhan, Jiang Baizhan looked at it and said: "Your righteous brother is really a sensible hero!"
"Tianfengmen gathered all over the hall to naturally not be underestimated, plus he thinks that Huaxiong's martial arts are outstanding, so he will not be defeated, and he pretends to be a heroic man with full face, of course he agreed. β
"Then isn't he worried about Hua Xiong's life?"
"Hua Xiong is not his own brother, the Flying Eagle Castle has thousands of treasures, the position of the castle lord in the Flying Eagle Castle can be said to be calling the wind and rain and the stars holding the moon, recently the young man of Citi has disappeared, he is worried that Hua Xiong usurped the position of the castle lord is not necessarily, all in all, considering the back road, everyone has their own selfishness, and it is not surprising that they will agree. β
"Is the lady selfish?"
Du Wei said mischievously: "Yes, but don't tell the officials." β
"Is the lady going to tell another man?"
"Yes! Don't be angry with the officials, the lady will never give up. β
"I'm so poor, I'm angry with the officials, and the lady can't hear good stories. β
"What else?"
Jiang Baizhan pointed his finger at Du Wei with small movements: "The official will play Mu Weizi." β
Du Wei sneered: "The official is really bad. β
Du Wei wrote a brief letter asking Kang Xu to send Xuanwu Hall.
In the early morning of the next day, Du Wei took Jiang Baizhan out of the house with Guo Huai, and after explaining the affairs of the house to Meng Jiao outside the mansion, Du Wei and Jiang Baizhan held hands and Guo Huai followed behind and walked towards Luo's house.
There were generals standing inside and outside the Luo house, all dressed in long clothes, all carrying crossbows and knives, murderous, the three of them arrived in the front yard, and a ring was set up in the yard, Hua Yishen greeted him and said: "My sister is my own person, brother, I won't say polite words, this brother is ......"
Du Wei said in a loud voice: "My family's official Jiang Baizhan,"
"Brother-in-law, you kid is not worthy of my sister-in-law!"
Du Wei pulled Jiang Baizhan and said, "Brother Yi likes to joke." β
"The righteous brother's righteous sister is unparalleled in the world, and she looks like a fairy, and it is God who favors me. Jiang Baizhan said with a smile.
Hua Yishen patted Jiang Baizhan on the shoulder and said, "I can speak, and I am worthy of being my brother-in-law!"
"Guo Huai!" Hua Yishen looked at Guo Huai and said.
Du Wei said: "This is Guo Huai, the general of my house." β
Guo Huai declared his fist towards Hua Yi and said, "Guo Huai has seen the Lord of Flower Castle!"
Hua Yishen hugged his fists and said, "Fortunately, I will be lucky!"
Du Wei said: "What about the second brother?"
Hua Yishen said: "In the living room, let's go to the living room to rest," the four of them walked towards the living room, Hua Yishen put his hand on Jiang Baizhan's shoulder and said, "Have a good drink with my brother today!"
Jiang Baizhan said: "The righteous brother's speech is exactly what my brother-in-law wants. β
Entering the living room, Hua Xiong was sitting with Hua Liukai playing chess, Du Wei saw that he didn't take the competition to heart at all, and felt a lot more relieved, the maid brought all kinds of snacks and fruit plates, Du Wei ate unceremoniously, and heard that someone came to report that the people from Tianfeng Gate had arrived, and Hua Yishen went out to greet him.
Du Wei pulled Jiang Baizhan to sit down and eat together, and looked at Guo Huai while eating: "Guo Huai, you can also come and sit and eat! β
"Yes!" Guo Huai agreed, and walked over to sit down and eat together.
The three of them ate some desserts, Du Wei called the maid to come over and clean up, the maid handed the three of them a handkerchief to wipe their mouths, Du Wei secretly thought, this maid is very likable, Du Wei walked to Hua Xiong's side and put his hand on Hua Xiong's shoulder and said: "Second brother can't be underestimated for a while, because the other party may flash quickly, you can't make a move to the end, and one move to the end will only be the figure of a person, remember to change your moves quickly." β
Hua Xiong said: "Sister Yi, don't worry! Ye Luying's two times, she will not be the opponent of the second brother after ten years of practice." β
There are three Taishi chairs in front of the ring, Ye Luying is sitting on the left, Hua Yishen is sitting on the right, and behind Ye Luying are Nangong Yunxia, Cai Xiaozhi, Wei Jinmei, and Hu Yanshi.
Du Wei walked to the middle Taishi chair and threw his cloak and sat in the middle, Jiang Baizhan stood on Du Wei's side, Guo Huai stood behind Du Wei, and Hua Yishen called a general to invite Hua Xiong.
The general entered the living room, went to Hua Xiong's side and said, "The second master, the castle owner is invited to come to the stage!"
Hua Xiong waved his hand, and the family would withdraw, Hua Xiong pointed to the chessboard and said: "Brother Liukai, don't move this game of chess first, you are determined to lose, the second brother will go out to kill someone and come back and continue to play!"
