Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Guest
"In the past few days, there will be a lot of people from the rivers and lakes who come to harass you, you must cheer up, do you hear clearly?"
"Yes!"
Shu Mubai just finished speaking to the family at the gate, and then returned to his study, these two days there was a steady stream of 'lone travelers', 'gentlemen on the beam' and 'green forest heroes' to disturb, although it was a fly, but it was also annoying.
But Shu Mubai also knows that in fact, it is very safe these days, because those real advanced people will never act casually without finding out the details of the other party, after all, masters have their own dignity and face, unless at the last moment, they will never act rashly!
"The caution of these masters just brings an opportunity for them to take advantage of! And even if there are real masters, what is my Shu family afraid of?" Shu Mubai thought to himself, picked up the dossier sent from all over his subordinates today in his hand, and looked at it carefully.
Really clever people can often get a lot of useful clues from these complicated and trivial information.
Shu Mubai frowned and looked at the information sent below, he found that there were indeed too many forces in this Jiangdu City recently, and at noon today, Li Xian, the 'King of One Word and Shoulder to Shoulder', came to Jiangdu with a group of subordinates and lived in 'Huyuan Village'.
This 'Li Xian' is the most powerful person except for the emperor 'Li Ji' of the current dynasty, known as the 'King of Civil and Military Arts', who enters the palace without kneeling, and no one in the whole country has his illustrious status. What does his arrival imply?
And yesterday, the 'Emperor Zhengzong' sent the 'Divine Spear' of the Imperial Forest Army, the 'Divine Spear', also entered the Jiangdu 'Taishou Mansion' with three hundred forbidden troops, and also issued an edict saying that the 'Emperor' was sympathetic to the Jiangdu Golden Armor Guard, and specially sent them to garrison, in fact, it was the heart of the treasure, and everyone knew it!
There are also the four major families of 'Nanli', Gongsun, Chu Yun, Han, and Deng, and some people have already entered Jiangdu, after all, these old forces have their own dens in a metropolis like Jiangdu.
The other forces will not be listed one by one, although Shu Mubai had long expected such a scene, but when they really arrived, there was still a lot of uneasiness in his heart, especially the entry of this royal force, which really made him at a loss, he couldn't offend, and he couldn't really give them huge benefits, difficult!
"The master of the family! Just as Shu Mubai continued to read the dossier, someone outside suddenly reported recently, and respectfully handed over the prayer post.
Shu Mubai took a look, and there were nine big characters on the post, 'Jiangdu is too shou Cheng to worship first!'
"Please!" Before he finished reading, Shu Mubai immediately ordered: "Hurry up and invite them to Cuiyutang, let's go by myself!"
"Oh, your guests are coming! I said why are magpies screaming all over the sky today, it turns out that I know that Cheng Taishou is coming!"
"Hehe, don't come to Shu Zhuang unharmed? Cheng came to visit rashly today, please don't be surprised by Shu Zhuang Master!"
Shu Mubai walked closer, with a smile on his face, there were three people with different expressions beside Cheng Taishou, Shu Mubai observed a little, and knew that these were definitely not ordinary people, but since Cheng Jixian didn't say it, this Shu Mubai naturally didn't ask, and hurriedly said:
"Cheng Taishou, friends, please come in, please please, Shu is really lazy" hurriedly invited, Cheng Taishou and a few people chatted casually, and they also entered, and came to the 'Cui Yu Hall', the guests sat down for tea, and Shu Mubai continued:
"Cheng Taishou is here today, and it's really a puffy wall to give up! In the next place, I first replaced wine with tea, and I have seen Lord Taishou and all my friends!"
That Cheng Taishou hurriedly picked up the teacup and drank it all with Shu Mubai, and the others also drank it separately, this Cheng Taishou observed the environment for a while, and then continued:
"I knew that the owner of Shu Zhuang's house was so quiet, Cheng might have come to visit a long time ago, hehe!" This 'Cuiyutang' is indeed the most secluded place in Jiangdu's 'Shujia Manor'.
"Cheng Taishou smiled, all this is not thanks to Lord Taishou's good governance, to ensure the safety of my Jiangdu, so that someone can get a quiet place! In the future, Cheng Taishou will like it, just come, and treat this place as his home!" With a hypocritical smile on his face, Shu Mubai and Cheng Ji started to fight haha.
After greeting for a long time, Cheng Jixian straightened his face before he said to Shu Mubai: "The so-called Three Treasures Hall is not going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, this official came today, but he has something to discuss with the owner of Shu Zhuang!"
"What do adults say, within their ability, Shu will never give up!" Shu Mubai said, his face full of righteousness.
Cheng Taishou waved his hand, shook his head and said with a smile: "That's not necessary, Master Shu doesn't have to be nervous, I'll introduce you to a few friends first!" As he spoke, he pointed to a middle-aged literati in Tsing Yi beside him: "This is Lord Chen Mo Nanchen, the 'Governor of the Nanli Forbidden Army'!"
"You are the 'Sharpshooter' Lord Chen! Look up for a long time" Shu Mubai looked frightened, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, Nachen Monan was in his thirties, and even Shu Mubai looked away!
Chen Monan smiled, shook his hand gently, and a general's demeanor floated out, and said: "Where is Chen worthy of the name of 'Gun God', Master Shu Zhuang smiled!"
"My lord is humble!" "This Chen Mo Nan can be said to be a hot figure in the capital, the first military minister under the emperor, who is responsible for the safety of the entire capital, and the object of the forces of all parties!
And what he is most frightening is the name of Chen Monan's spear god, 'Shocking spear out of the ghost god, ask who in the world is fighting for the wind?' A magic spear, Chen Monan, who was invincible all over the capital, didn't expect it to be the middle-aged man in front of him! Shu Mubai was shocked in his heart, but when he thought of Dugu's defeat, it was equally unfathomable.
It seems that people can't look good!" Shu Mubai sighed in his heart.
"This is Wei Yun, the 'deputy head of the forbidden army'!"
"This is my master, Liu is right and wrong!" "Long admiration, long admiration"
After a few people finished greetings, Cheng Jixian said: "Today we came to find the owner of Shu Zhuang, but there is one thing to talk to the owner!"
"What's the matter, Lord Taishou just said!" Shu Mubai also knew that the main play was going to start, so he hurriedly expressed his attitude.
Nachen Monan, Liu Shifei, and Wei Yun were all quietly watching the conversation between the two on the side, and they didn't interject.
