There is a ship moored at the wharf outside the city of Jing County, double-decker, ornately decorated, and a flag is hung on the mast, which is the unique symbol of Qijiafu at a glance. %

On the second deck, there were many people standing, lined up with arches. And at the banquet in the center, the old man of the Qi family and the young master of Qi were impressively in the ranks, and they were changing glasses with several officials from Nanyang, drinking and having fun. On the side, there is also a beautiful woman sitting on the ground, caressing the strings.

The sound is like water, flowing softly.

Drinking the wine, Zheng Yangming was in a good mood, his eyes were slightly squinted, and his eyes had already caught glimpse of the female pianist's bumpy and slender figure.

Master Qi caught a glimpse and smiled slightly: "Master Zheng, how is this female piano artist?"

"Good, good......"

Zheng Yangming replied casually, obviously the drunkard did not mean to drink.

"Since Lord Zheng thinks it's good, after a while, I'll let her go to Lord Zheng's room and play it again, what do you think?"

Zheng Yangming laughed: "Master Qi is really refreshing." ”

Master Qi stroked his beard: "Then it's decided, it's not a secret, this woman is not only superb in the piano, but also in the, which is even more amazing and intriguing." ”

As he spoke, he laughed with a hint of "you know".

Zheng Yangming's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he couldn't wait to take his daughter back to the room immediately to verify it in person. However, when I thought about it, I couldn't help but feel a shadow in my heart.

Master Qi is a well-established figure in the rivers and lakes, observing words and feelings, and has a clear insight: "Lord Zheng is worried about things in the city?"

Zheng Yangming groaned: "Master Qi, you and I are honest with each other, and I don't need to hide it." The stakes are high. There is no room for error. ”

Master Qi puffed up his chest: "Master Zheng is too worried, according to the old man." It is only a seven-grade county order, and the flow of weak literature. Otherwise, it's as easy as a snap. ”

"That being said, I'm always a little apprehensive. ”

Zheng Yangming can't say the source of his worries, anyway, he is not very relieved.

A while ago, Nanyang sent troops to Jing County to suppress bandits, and he knew more or less about the inside story, knowing that this was actually a bureau against Chen Sanlang, the core force of the layout. Arrangement from Yangzhou. However, what is surprising is that this well-arranged game did not succeed, so that Chen Sanlang got out unharmed.

Zheng Yangming did not know the specific process of the incident, because Mo Xuanyi and his entourage were directly responsible for Yangzhou and would not report it to Nanyang Mansion. Even so, when Chen Sanlang continued to be his county magistrate alive, it speaks for itself.

Last night, Chen Sanlang unexpectedly appeared in the Qijia Mansion. made Zheng Yangming suspicious. When he heard that Chen Sanlang had returned to the county office, he hurriedly discussed with Master Qi and set a plan.

The main policy of the strategy was to give instructions from Master Qi to let a large number of martial arts people pour into Jing County. Play it by ear. Anyway, no matter what, as long as you find the reason, you will make a big fuss in Jing County. As long as there is chaos, take advantage of the chaos to kill Chen Sanlang. It's a hundred.

It is a great crime to kill an official of the imperial court, but the current situation. There were many thieves and civil uprisings, and afterwards, Nanyang Mansion came forward and wrote a letter, presumably saying that it was the people of Jing County who were making trouble, so the truth of the county order killing could be covered up.

Zheng Mingyang has been in the officialdom for many years, and he knows the truth well, and understands that the reason why Yangzhou does not deal with it positively is that he is afraid that Chen Sanlang is the emperor's order. Therefore, the current means of implementation are basically not on the table.

The suppression of bandits is one case, and now the civil uprising is another.

Zheng Yangming thinks that this strategy is very suitable, enough to hide from the sky and cross the sea, once the matter is completed, Yangzhou will be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and he may be able to leap up and soar.

If there is something good at the top, it will follow suit; if there is something at the top, there should be worries at the bottom, and that is nothing more than that.

Zheng Yangming has seen a bright future unfolding under his feet, and the premise of all the good results at the moment is that the plan can be carried out smoothly. Or as Master Qi said, hundreds of martial arts people poured into Jing County, and they had no reason to fail.

Jing County, the land of projectiles, there are less than 100 soldiers defending the city, and most of them are old and weak; as for those officials, they are even more unpopular, they can show off their might in front of the people who are kind and afraid of things, but after encountering the murderous heroes of the rivers and lakes, they can only be turtles with shrunken heads.

No matter how you look at it, this Chen Sanlang is destined to not be able to turn over the storm.

Thinking of this, Zheng Yangming gradually relaxed.

Knock knock!

The sound of hurried footsteps, and not long after, I saw a man running up with a panicked expression.

Master Qi's face sank, and he shouted, "Wu Shan, what's wrong?"

That Wu Shan hurriedly said: "Master Qi, the brothers can't stand it." ”

"What?"

Not only Master Qi, but also Zheng Yangming and others couldn't help but lose their voices and stood up.

Master Qi asked: "How can you not stand it?"

Wu Shan cried with a sad face: "There are masters in this city. ”

"Master?"

When Master Qi heard this, he was a little unimpressed. As the number one person in the rivers and lakes, he has seen many masters, but in fact, that's it, not much higher. Of course, there are indeed 100 people in this world, 1,000 enemies, and so on, but that kind of grade, which can be called a master outside the world, is rare, how can it appear in Jing County? Jing County is an old city, and the cultural heritage is not shallow, but I have never heard of the hidden dragon and the crouching tiger, and there are no big people living in seclusion.

Young Master Qi next to him interjected and asked, "How tall is it?"

Wu Shan said with palpitations: "Very high." ”

Master Qi's face sank: "Tell me, what kind of people are they?"

"A short man with a yellow beard, with a double fork, and a big man with a red face, a three-pointed and two-edged knife, it is said that he is a doorman of Chen County, and he is very brave. We are not afraid of death, but they are even more afraid of death, and when we kill a piece, it is our side that dies......"

As he spoke, his voice trembled slightly, showing fear in his heart.

How can you not be afraid, those two evil stars appear in your mind, they are simply two demon gods who kill people without blinking. Appalling.

The people in the rivers and lakes are all the masters who lick the blood from the knife edge, and it stands to reason that the guts are very fat, otherwise how can they mix the rivers and lakes?

Master Qi has an understanding of Wu Shan, and his kung fu is not very good, at the level of second or third rate, but he is full of courage, with a lot of blood on his hands, and dares to break into mass graves at night. He was now pale with shock, which showed the cruelty of the other party.

"Doorman?"

Old Man Qi's posture became solemn.

An important criterion for measuring talent is to gather people. To put it bluntly, it depends on how many people you can gather around, follow you, and work for you. Quantity is a criterion, and the level is even more standard. In the rivers and lakes, it is said that the mountains and forests are gathered in the mountains, and in the officialdom, it is the staff and doormen.

It was a bit unexpected that Chen Sanlang had two such good doormen by his side.

Zheng Yangming asked, "Just these two?"

"And one more ......"

Wu Shan hurriedly said: "This is a woman, and she is a county lieutenant, she is young and beautiful like a flower, but she picks up the knife quickly, accurately and ruthlessly." The Liu family brothers and several of them were folded in her hands. ”

"Hot girl, Master Ben likes it!"

When Young Master Qi heard this, he immediately couldn't bear it: "Dad, I'll go and get the lesson." ”

Without waiting for a reply, he jumped directly from the second deck.

"This kid!"

Master Qi stomped his feet and hurriedly ordered several personal guards to follow, making sure to protect the young master's safety. (To be continued......)
