Chapter Twenty-Six: The Night of Talking
"Stupid, hurry up!" Tang Zhan, who was still asleep, was directly picked up by Lu Jing.
"It hurts......" Tang Zhan had to get up and sit on the bed instead, tidied up the pear flower gun wrapped in cloth on his back, and said in a daze, "What, Jing'er, people haven't slept in bed for a long time, why did you wake me up in one fell swoop?"
Lu Jing listened to Tang Zhan's stupid words, and said angrily and funny: "Are you embarrassed to say? I just let you rest for half an hour, and you actually put me to sleep, and you still don't listen to me?"
Tang Zhan opened his sleepy eyes, scratched his head and said, "I've always listened to you, Jing'er, but why are you calling me up now?"
Hearing this, Lu Jing really wanted to lift the bed and lose her temper, but Tang Zhan's appearance on the bed now was silly and cute, which made Lu Jing really cry and laugh. Lu Jing had no choice but to say: "Get up and do things quickly, believe it or not, I let the wolf dog come in and bite you?"
Tang Zhan realized it and quickly jumped out of bed. After changing his shoes, Tang Zhan became full of energy and asked, "Say, Jing'er, what do you want me to do?"
Seeing Tang Zhan's stupid attitude, Lu Jing smiled and said, "Silly, you go and help me move those big stones in the opposite corner to the backyard." As he spoke, he pointed to the side of Linglong's room steps.
Tang Zhan saw it and said with a smile: "No problem, this little thing can be done at once!"
"That's ......good," Lu Jing said, "Linglong bought the curtain back, Linglong and I will go to the room to install the curtain first, and then come out to see how you are doing." ”
Tang Zhan nodded confidently. Afterwards, Lu Jing went back to her room first.
So, Tang Zhan warmed up at the door, and then walked towards the group of big stones. He looked at those big stones, "tsk" twice, and then said to himself: "Hey, such an easy task, I really don't know if Jing'er Weishenme can't find anyone?"
Just as Tang Zhan was about to start working, suddenly, many people came from behind Tang Zhan. Tang Zhan turned his head suddenly, only to see more than a dozen strong men looking at him with their hands crossed and smiling, that smile was obviously contemptuous. Most of these people are taller and stronger than Tang Zhan, in fact, Tang Zhan's body type is already a strong man, but many people are taller and stronger than him, it is conceivable that they usually do more rough work than Tang Zhan.
Tang Zhan asked first, "May I ask...... Is there anything you guys are up to?"
There was a "hey" laugh from the crowd, and one of them said in a contemptuous tone, "Boy, new here, right?"
Tang Zhan didn't make a sound, just nodded slightly, he found that these individuals were not good people.
The man continued, "Since you're new here, you probably don't know our rules here, do you?"
"What rules?" asked Tang Zhan.
The man said, "Newcomers, especially those who work in the yard of the young lady, have to pay protection money!"
Tang Zhan shook his head and said, "But I didn't!"
"If not...... It's going to eat fists!" After speaking, a punch was already hit hard at Tang Zhan's abdomen.
This Yin fist is extremely fast, and it is hit without the other party's knowledge. But Tang Zhan reacted quickly, grabbing his fist with his left hand. Don't look at Tang Zhan's stupidity in speaking and doing things, but as soon as he fights, his vigilance immediately seems to be a different person.
Tang Zhan's hand was clenched to death, and he stared at his opponent with sharp eyes. The strong man's hand was grabbed by Tang Zhan, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get rid of Tang Zhan, but the whole person was still pulling out vigorously. Tang Zhan calmed down, and as soon as he suddenly let go, the strong man fell directly backwards, and fell heavily to the ground, breaking a flower pot. The strong man screamed in pain, and the surrounding gardeners saw that the opposite side was full of gunpowder, and avoided it one after another.
Lu Jing and Linglong heard the noise outside and immediately went out of the room to watch the situation. I saw more than a dozen people surrounding Tang Zhan, and one person fell on the ground not far away, with fragments of flower pots next to him.
When Lu Jing saw it, she shouted to the group of people, "You guys, who let you in?"
When the group heard the shouting, they all turned to Lu Jing one after another. One of them shouted, "Offended Miss, we're just here for a while." ”
Lu Jing shouted, "But you trespassed into my yard without my permission." Besides, there are so many of you in a partnership, do you obviously want to bully him!" As he spoke, his eyes glanced at Tang Zhan, who was in a daze on the side.
Tang Zhan saw this, and his face turned slightly red. And the man in the group of big men said: "We are just not convinced, whether we do well or not are calculated by you, the high-ranking lady." Today, I see that Miss you have found someone again, we just want to meet, to see where he is better than us?"
"I don't need you, naturally because you are useless, and you often bully other ......subordinates," Lu Jing said angrily, "Besides, what do I want to do with the eldest lady of the Lu family, and it is your turn to take care of me?" If you don't leave, don't blame me Lu Jing is welcome!" As she spoke, Lu Jing pulled out the "Dragon and Phoenix Double Short Sword" from her waist that she usually carried on her body.
When Tang Zhan saw it, a little smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he happily felt that although Lu Jing was the eldest lady, she had a strong sense of justice.
And when the gang saw this, their feet became a little restless. They knew that Lu Jing would be able to use a powerful double short sword martial arts, and Lu Jing was very scheming, and if she didn't pay attention, she would fall into her trap. But those people were still standing in a pile, and one of them said: "I know Miss Lu, you are very powerful, but now there are so many of us against you, you ...... What can you do?"
Lu Jing smiled: "You people still want to stop me Lu Jing, I think you are asking for your own hardship!"
Suddenly, Tang Zhan stood in front of Lu Jing and said, "You people are deceiving people too much, if you dare to fight Jing'er's bad idea, I will never let you go!"
When Lu Jing saw it, she felt an inexplicable relief in her heart, but she felt that Tang Zhan's sudden appearance made her as the eldest lady very faceless, so she said to Tang Zhan: "Fool, get out of the way, I'll deal with them......"
Before Lu Jing could finish speaking, Tang Zhan hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Jing'er, it's going to be fine......"
"Who cares if you have anything to do......" Although Lu Jing was a little moved by Tang Zhan's behavior, for the sake of face, she didn't say anything, so she opened the reason and said, "If I, Lu Jing, don't clean them up in person today, then I will be too faceless......"
Before Lu Jing could finish speaking, one of the dozen or so strong men said to Tang Zhan: "Stinky boy, dare to speak wild words to us, you are looking for death!" He said that, but he was actually a little worried in his heart, because one of them was knocked to the ground by Tang Zhan just now.
Tang Zhan smiled: "Hmph, come if you have a kind! You don't need Jing'er to make a move, you can't even pass my level!"
Without saying a word, a big man rushed up first and shouted, "Stinky boy, I'm going to skin you alive today!"
Tang Zhan didn't panic, and when he saw the big man rushing over, he kicked the big man in the knee. Dahan didn't balance well, and then rushed fast, and was kicked by Tang Zhan like this, the whole person suddenly soared in the air, and then came a five-body throw. The collision knocked out the two front teeth of the big man, and it seems that the collision injury was not light.
But immediately after, two more big men pounced one after the other. But this time they learned the lesson of the first person, one in front and one in the back, just in case. Before the first big man arrived at Tang Zhan, his right hand formed a palm and jerked it towards Tang Zhan's face. Tang Zhan shook his head to dodge the attack, and then quickly grabbed the right hand of the big man with his hand and stuck it firmly. The big man's hand was grabbed and he couldn't move, so his left hand also rushed towards Tang Zhan. Seeing this, Tang Zhan twisted his left hand vigorously and twisted the big man into his back. The big man shouted "ah-", he wanted to use his left hand to fight Tang Zhan, but in the case of being captured, the more painful it was to reach out. Tang Zhan didn't want to waste time, so he kicked Dahan's ass directly. Dahan was hit hard, and after rolling on the ground a few times, he lay on the ground and did not move.
Tang Zhan temporarily closed the battle, and suddenly found that the second big man who rushed was gone.
At this time, Lu Jing's voice came from behind: "Fool, be careful behind!"
Only then did Tang Zhan notice that he saw a big man behind him, and his hands instantly clasped Tang Zhan's armpits. Tang Zhan's hands couldn't move for the time being, so the big man lifted Tang Zhan up with force, and then spun in circles in the air, trying to strangle Tang Zhan to death. Tang Zhan gritted his teeth, and his elbows slammed into the big man's waist. The big man screamed miserably, stopped spinning in circles, and Tang Zhan's feet just landed, but his hands were still tightly clasped by him.
Seeing that Tang Zhan was tightly grasped, several more big men rushed up. Seeing this, Tang Zhan slammed his feet hard, and the whole person soared in mid-air again. Then, Tang Zhan's legs on both sides threw one left and one right towards the heads of the two big men on the left and right. After the two big men were hit, they fainted in pain.
There was also a big man who took advantage of Tang Zhan's failure to close his legs, inserted it from the middle, and grabbed Tang Zhan's leg with his left and right hands, so that Tang Zhan's limbs were all controlled.
The big man grabbed Tang Zhan's legs and wanted to tear Tang Zhan apart directly with both hands. Seeing this, Tang Zhan slammed his feet and directly clamped the big man's neck. The big man was so painful that he couldn't scream, but Tang Zhan twisted his legs violently again, the big man had no choice, and his whole body had to be twisted up, otherwise his head would be directly twisted off by Tang Zhan's legs. As a result, with this twist, the big man was completely twisted to the ground by Tang Zhan's legs, and his injuries can be imagined.
There was still the big man behind him who grabbed Tang Zhan's hands, and although the big man was in pain in both waists, he still grabbed Tang Zhan and didn't let go. Tang Zhan took a deep breath, and then shouted "Ah-", with all his strength, he directly lifted the big man behind him and threw him into the air, and Zuihou threw him to the gate of the courtyard in the distance.
After these few were done, the rest of the people didn't dare to rush up again, so they had to look at Tang Zhan, who was good at kung fu, stupidly, and was silent.
Lu Jing looked at Tang Zhan with a smile, and then shouted at the group of stupid men: "Why don't you get out of here?" be careful that I call my brother to clean you up!"
When those people heard this, they immediately fled with "injuries" and diseases......
Linglong was pleased beside Lu Jing and said: "I finally taught those guys a hard lesson! It seems that Tang Gongzi is really a heroic boy, and he is good at kung fu." Sister Lu, the person Zhao Gongzi introduced to us is really reliable. Tang Gongzi is honest, he will definitely be able to contribute a lot to the Lu family!"
Seeing that the matter was settled, Lu Jing walked in the direction of Tang Zhan.
Tang Zhan patted the dust on his body, and when he saw Lu Jing walking towards him, he smiled and said, "Jing'er, it's okay!"
Seeing this, Lu Jing punched Tang Zhan's chest, and Tang Zhan subconsciously protected it with his hand. Lu Jing said while beating: "What's 'okay', who wants you to protect me? The first time you did something, you made such a big mess...... Oh, you're done beating people, and you're okay to pat your ass and leave, what about me? Oh, a big lady is in charge of you as a servant, and I have no face at all......"
Lu Jing hit, say a word, hit a word, say a word, Tang Zhan hurriedly stopped: "Jing'er, I'm ...... Did you do something wrong?"
Tang Zhan immediately returned to that silly boy demeanor, and his silly and cute tone made Lu Jing almost laugh again. Lu Jing stopped and said, "Why didn't you do anything wrong? As for your performance today, I ...... I'm going to punish you!"
Tang Zhan asked puzzledly, "What's that...... How to be punished?"
Lu Jing glanced at Linglong, thought about it again, and then said, "I'll punish you...... Punish you for serving me tonight. Before I go to bed, I will let you do whatever you want, and it just so happens that Linglong can rest for the night today. ”
Linglong listened to it and said with a smile: "Really? That's great, I can have a good night's rest today, Sister Xiexie Lu!"
Tang Zhan stood a little confused, and Lu Jing said to Tang Zhan again: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you move the big stone to the backyard quickly?"
Tang Zhan nodded and replied, "Haode, Jing'er!" So, Tang Zhan easily picked up a big stone and walked towards the backyard.
Looking at Tang Zhan's stupid appearance, Lu Jing snickered: "Hehe, what a stupid boy......"
The servant next to him kept looking at what was happening, at a loss. Lu Jing saw it and said loudly: "Whatever you see, you can work for me!" So, the servant next to him also continued to work, and in this way, this afternoon was spent in a busy ......
It was already late at night, and even the moon had risen......
After eating with the other servants, Tang Zhan sat alone on the steps at the door of his room, thinking about things very leisurely.
Since there was no special task in the evening, most of the servants went back to their rooms to rest after dinner. Most of the servants and servants were a dozen or more people who were in the same big room, but Tang Zhan was different, Lu Jing arranged a room for him to sleep in like Linglong. After all, Tang Zhan, like Linglong, can be regarded as Lu Jing's personal servants, and Lu Jing is also very friendly to the two of them, so Lu Jing treats them as friends and gives them very superior conditions to stay......
Now Tang Zhan is the only one left in the courtyard. The night was cool and the moonlight was brighter. Tang Zhan looked up at the bright moon, and his expression suddenly became sad. He thought of many things, and he also felt the contradiction between his mission as a descendant of the Tang family and the real society. He was even a little painful, he wanted to resent this unfair fate, weishenme himself was a descendant of the Tang family, and the grievances and hatreds of Weishenme's parents had to be repaid by innocent children - Tang Zhan thought about this question almost every night......
But he has made a lot of friends, and some of them can also motivate her to see clearly what kind of person he should be in this shijie. Tang Zhan thought about it, and then took out the half of the dragon pattern jade pendant from his waist. He looked at the half of the jade pendant affectionately, thinking of his infinite concern for Sun Yun, after all, Sun Yun was his first good brother in this world...... It's a pity that the ruthless fate broke up the two, and the two brothers were separated, so I am afraid that only occasionally take out this jade pendant under this good day and moon to express my thoughts about my brother...... Tang Zhan sighed, his eyes gradually lowered. He was a little confused, and he began to worry about how his life path would go......
While Tang Zhan was thinking, suddenly, a pair of hands blindfolded him behind Tang Zhan. Tang Zhan came back to his senses at this time, and asked in a dumb tone, "Who?" He obviously felt that this was a pair of slender jade hands, so he didn't have too high vigilance.
"Can't you guess that?" asked the woman behind her.
"It's Jing'er!" Tang Zhan heard that it was Lu Jing's voice, and his heart was happy.
Lu Jing let go of her hands, then sat down beside Tang Zhan and asked, "Fool, what are you thinking about here alone?"
Tang Zhan suddenly felt a kind of comfort in his heart, whenever he felt worried about his fate, he felt that Lu Jing could bring him happiness and let him forget his troubles for a while.
Lu Jing asked again: "I see that you have been looking at this jade pendant just now, is this jade pendant very important to you?"
Tang Zhan looked sideways and saw Lu Jing's pure water-like eyes looking at him affectionately, and the moonlight shone on Lu Jing's face, reflecting the smile of Allure. Tang Zhan's face flushed, and then he hurriedly said, "This jade pendant...... It was my good brother who gave me ......."
Lu Jing took the jade pendant from his hand, then raised his head and shone it in the moonlight, and then said to Tang Zhan: "This dragon pattern jade pendant is very precious, it should be from the hands of someone who is richer than our Lu family." I wonder who that good brother of yours is?"
"My good brother's name is Sun Yun. Tang Zhan said.
"Sun Yun?" Lu Jing asked, "Could it be Sun Yun, the young master of the original 'Coming to the Dart Bureau'?"
"That's right, Jing'er, do you know him?" Tang Zhan asked in surprise.
"I don't know ......," Lu Jing shook her head and said, "But I know that this Sun Yun is an extremely righteous person, and the Zichuan brothers have wanted to be friends with him many times, but unfortunately the 'Lai Yun Dart Bureau' moved away yesterday." ”
Tang Zhan said: "When I met Brother Zichuan, I also talked about this issue. It's a pity that my grandson brother moved north to Dadu, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to see each other again in this life, right?"
Lu Jing said to the dragon pattern jade pendant again: "This jade pendant is an extremely rare thing, even if he has a big asset in the 'Fortune Dart Bureau', he will never have and will not have the opportunity to buy this kind of jade." I think that the people of the original family of the Sun Yun brothers, his parents, should not only have money, but also have a very political status...... But then again, how can this jade pendant be only half?"
Tang Zhan took the jade pendant back from his waist, and then said, "Brother Sun said that his dragon pattern jade pendant was broken into two pieces when he was born. ”
Lu Jing held her head and said, "Wow, this Brother Sun Yun actually gave you such a precious thing, it seems that the relationship between your brothers is really deep!"
"Actually, we've only been friends for one day......" Tang Zhan said again, "But we have really become good brothers like a long time!" So, Tang Zhan told Lu Jing how he and Sun Yun taught the "Matou Gang" robbers......
After hearing this, Lu Jing said with a smile: "No wonder you can deal with so many by yourself, it seems that Brother Sun Yun has made you chivalrous, you should really thank him." ”
Tang Zhan nodded and said, "Yes, but I don't know if there is still this opportunity...... and then looked up at the moon again.
Lu Jing saw that Tang Zhan had been carrying that long thing on his back, so he couldn't help asking, "Stupid, aren't you tired of carrying that thing every day?"
Tang Zhan shook his head and replied: "Don't be tired, this is the heirloom of our family, my uncle has always told me to take good care of this thing, it will be useful in the future." ”
"Your uncle?" Lu Jing seemed to have guessed something, and asked again, "Fool, is there something going on in your family......"
Hearing this, Tang Zhan became melancholy again. Lu Jing found that Tang Zhan's expression changed rapidly, and he felt a little ashamed that his problem might have evoked his sad memories. Tang Zhan thought for a moment, and then said slowly: "I don't want to talk about our family...... All I can tell you is that my parents are no longer alive, and they died because of the Mongols......"
Lu Jing also felt a little sad when she heard this, and then looked straight ahead and said, "Needless to say, it's inconvenient, I don't blame you...... In fact, Linglong's parents also died early for some reason. After she was sold to our Lu family, I have always regarded her as my sister. Many times when she was lonely, I often laughed with her. After all, without her parents, as the only daughter, she will definitely be very lonely and painful in her heart, and what she lacks most is family care. So stupid, I can understand your grief and pain......"
Tang Zhan was a little moved when he heard this, he looked sideways at Lu Jing and said, "Jing'er, xiexie, ...... you?"
Lu Jing also smiled sideways, making Tang Zhan blush for a while. Then Lu Jing asked, "That idiot, what is your future goal in life?"
Tang Zhan looked up at the blue night sky shriveled in moonlight and said: "I want to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and avenge my family, and at the same time, I am determined to drive the Mongolian Tatars out of the Central Plains, save the common people in the world, and benefit the people." Therefore, the purpose of my trip is to find Zhu Yuanzhang, because only he can lead the army to overthrow the Mengyuan dynasty and restore the Central Plains!"
Lu Jing listened and said with a smile: "In this way, you and the Zichuan brothers have the same ideals, and they both want to become a big hero with the world in mind." Okay, manly man, ambitious!"
Tang Zhan also smiled slightly. But then Lu Jing said: "However, just your stupid brain, you can only do brute force, how can you be a hero?"
Tang Zhan bowed his head and said: "I know I'm stupid, but there is no way to change it at the moment, I can only accept my fate, otherwise, what else can I do......"
Lu Jing rolled her eyes, and then said, "In this way, you will follow Jing'er and me in the future, and you will do whatever I tell you to do." Fool, you are too simple, you don't know the sinister nature of this rivers and lakes, you follow me, I will teach you many ways to deal with people. ”
"Jing'er, you...... Teach me?" Tang Zhan asked in surprise.
"What, you doubt me?" Lu Jing pretended to be angry and said in a cute tone, "You know, in this Bianliang City, Jing'er and I are famous for being smart, and few people dare to mess with me." ”
"Really?" Tang Zhan smiled, "Okay, I believe in Jing'er, and I'll listen to Jing'er in the future!"
Lu Jing smiled at Tang Zhan, and her lovely face made Tang Zhan's heart tremble. Lu Jing said again: "Fool, do you know that I Weishenme agreed so directly to Brother Zichuan and let you be my servant?"
Tang Zhan shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
Lu Jing said: "The actual need for a strong man is one thing, but on the other hand, I think you are honest and cute, and you should be an emotional person in the future." If you are with someone like Zhao Zichuan who always says that 'he is not interested in women', maybe you will become like Brother Huang Ji, a stupid man who only knows hardness and does not know tenderness. Stupid, you're stupid, but you're not stupid. There is a difference between stupidity and stupidity, stupidity is stupid in mind, but the heart is not stupid, and understands emotions; but stupid, just like Zhao Zichuan, is a stupid person who is not necessarily stupid in his brain, but his heart is very stupid, and he does not understand emotions!"
Hearing Lu Jing's funny words, Tang Zhan couldn't help laughing. Tang Zhan smiled, and Lu Jing also laughed. Then she said, "So from now on, fools, you have to listen to me...... I'm a little sleepy, stupid bastard, you go and help me make a basin and wash my feet, I want to wash my feet!"
Tang Zhan nodded, and then took a bucket to the well water and drew a bucket of water. After that, Tang Zhan also burned it with fire for a while to make the footwashing water a little hotter. After the incident, Tang Zhan poured the water into the basin and sent it to Lu Jing's room.
As soon as I entered Lu Jing's door, I felt that the fragrance inside was elegant and there were red curtain pillars everywhere. Lu Jing said to Tang Zhan: "You put the footwashing water in front of my bed." ”
Tang Zhan arranged the water according to Lu Jing's meaning, and then asked, "Jing'er, the water is ready, but how are you going to wash it?"
Lu Jing took a bench, put it on the opposite side of the bed and said, "Today you are serving me for Linglong, of course you will help me wash!"
Hearing this, Tang Zhan's face suddenly turned red, and he said, "Jing'er, you...... What do you say...... What ......"
Lu Jing said, "I said I asked you to wash my feet!" As she spoke, she sat on the edge of the bed and began to take off her octagonal boots.
Tang Zhan's face flushed, and he saw the whole process of Lu Jing's pair of small, delicate, white and flawless jade feet entering the water, and his heartbeat kept speeding up.
Lu Jing saw that Tang Zhan had been looking at his feet, so he said, "What's the matter, stupid, help me wash it!"
Tang Zhan noticed this, and then slowly reached into the basin with trembling hands, reached into the water, and finally touched Lu Jing's jade feet. But as soon as he touched it, his hand instinctively retracted, and his mind seemed to faint. He reached out to touch it again, and then retracted it, and so on, Tang Zhanxin was so fascinated that his eyes were a little unbearable. He was a little scared, he felt that touching Lu Jing's feet was blaspheming this big beauty.
But Lu Jing was so itchy that Tang Zhan came and went, and she couldn't stand it, and her toes flicked and splashed. The splash splashed on Tang Zhan's face, and Lu Jing smiled: "Nasty, stupid, you make it too itchy!" Tang Zhan was hit by the splash and laughed on the side.
Lu Jing continued: "Really, stupid, can't even wash your feet? Or I'll do it myself!" So, Lu Jing pretended to be angry, but actually smiled on her face, and then washed her feet and put on her boots again.
Tang Zhan stood up, looked at the bookshelves around him, and asked again, "Jing'er, I just glanced at the books on your bookshelf a few times, why are they all art of war and history books?"
"It's something I've loved watching since I was a kid. Lu Jing smiled: "It's a pity that my father said that these are not books that girls should read, so he often cares about me and asks me to read some books." On the contrary, after reading these books on the art of war and history, I feel that my character has become much more mature and quick-witted!"
Lu Jing felt a little sleepy again, so she said again: "Okay, fool, tonight's service is over, you go and pour the footwashing water, and then hurry back to the room to sleep, there is something important tomorrow." ”
Tang Zhan asked, "What is it?"
Lu Jing replied: "Tomorrow - we are going to Brother Zichuan's house, my brother and my brother will go together, I heard that there is something important." ”
"Going to Brother Zichuan's house, that's great!" Tang Zhan said excitedly.
Lu Jing smiled: "Look at you, when you mention Zhao Zichuan's big idiot, you are excited like this?" Okay, okay, go to sleep, you have to get up early tomorrow......
So, Tang Zhan poured water for washing his feet and quickly went back to his room to sleep......
