After a while, three bowls of Heluo noodles were delivered, and they were also served with spicy curd skin, vinegared peanuts, and cucumbers. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Zhou Kai and Cao Sanmin broke half of the sugar and garlic in their hands, picked up the chopsticks and began to eat noodles, eat a mouthful of noodles, and drink a mouthful of soup. Zhu Yushi also learned how to eat like them, and praised it: "The taste is wonderful, I didn't expect the pasta to be so delicious." Zhou Kai said with a smile: "Don't underestimate this bowl of noodles, the Heluo culture that has been inherited for thousands of years is all in this bowl of Heluo noodles, Brother Fu slowly understands." The three of them ate two big bowls of soup and noodles, and their bellies were so bulging that they couldn't even eat Du Kang's wine.

At this moment, they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the long street downstairs, and the three of them hid by the window to watch, only to see seven healthy horses galloping through the street. One of the horses dragged a man behind him, his hands tied, lying on the ground and being dragged by the horse, and he saw that he was not alive. Zhu Yushi had good eyesight, and he saw that the rider who dragged people was the one-eyed man he met that day. I secretly thought that why did they come to Luoyang, why should they insult the corpse when they had already killed people.

Zhou Kai retracted his head and said, "It seems to be a member of the Horse Gang that day, don't look at it." The three of them sat down again, Zhu Yushi saw that they looked solemn, didn't say a word, and asked, "What are you two worried about?" Cao Sanmin said: "I already understand why the people from the Ma Gang are coming to Luoyang, it seems that the Zhu family is going to be unlucky." Zhou Kai sighed and was silent. Zhu Yushi was puzzled: "What happened, why did the Zhu family be unlucky." ”

Zhou Kai said: "This matter is a long story, the Zhu family has always been a wealthy family in Luoyang, and the 'Central Plains Dart Bureau' is the ancestral family business, which has a history of 200 years. The patriarch of this generation is named Zhu Wancheng, who is righteous and squanders money, has a wide range of friends, and has a good reputation in the local area. Zhu Yushi said: "But in the end, they still made a feud?"

Zhou Kai sighed: "Yes." The bad thing is that Miss Zhu Zhirui has the appearance of Tianxiang and the country, the posture of the shy flowers in the closed moon, and is knowledgeable, quiet and virtuous, and is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and her biggest hobby is to cultivate peonies. She is smart in ice and snow, has a blue heart, and the peony she has cultivated is unique in the world, and even the old gardener who has been a lifetime is amazed. The florists all say that peonies are the flowers of wealth, and only rich people like Miss Zhu can give them aura. Although Zhu Zhirui doesn't like to go out, she never misses the annual 'Peony Flower Meeting', and we can only see her true face at the Flower Meeting. The people gave her the nickname 'Luoshen' to praise her beauty, especially in the past two years, she has become more beautiful, and many people who come to the flower party are here to see her.

Zhu Yushi said: "Could it be that the people of the Ma Gang have taken a fancy to this Miss Zhu family?" Zhou Kai said: "Isn't it." Zhu Wancheng has two men and a girl under his knees, the eldest son Zhu Fuguo and the second son Zhu Yanshan have already started a family, only the little girl is by his side, and he loves him the most. The people who came to propose relatives were not looked down upon when they stepped through the threshold, and even the royal family of Qi was closed. Zhu Yushi exclaimed: "Don't even dare to give the face of Qi Guo?" Zhou Kai said: "The Zhu family is deeply rooted in Luoyang and has a lot of power. There are more than 500 people in the dart master nursing home, and Zhu Wancheng is the president of the Central Plains Chamber of Commerce, and his identity is very important and very popular with the people. Qi is most afraid of the people rebelling, and of course he doesn't want to provoke a figure like him. ”

Zhu Yushi said: "The people that Qi Guo doesn't dare to provoke dare to provoke?" Zhou Kai said: "Originally, the Ma Gang didn't want to mess with him, but Lei Zhen's brother-in-law Tong Zijian was a bastard, he became the deputy hall master of 'Huangxingtang' by his relationship, and he did all the bad things, he was extremely lustful, and how many families and wives were scattered, and the family was ruined." Tong Zijian had long heard that Miss Zhu's beauty had never been seen, so he took advantage of last year's Luoyang Flower Festival to pay his respects. At this time, Zhu Zhirui was reluctant to show her face, and went to the meeting with a veil, and all the people who went to pay their respects sighed, only Tong Zijian was not dead, and he unveiled Miss Zhu in public. When he saw her beautiful beauty, the kid was so fascinated that he proposed in public. Miss Zhu was embarrassed and angry, but she was only accompanied by a maid, but Tong Zijian brought seven helpers to surround Miss Zhu and it was difficult to leave. Tong Zijian saw that Miss Zhu did not say a word about the marriage and disdained him, so he turned back to his true character of a hooligan and said some obscene words that were unbearable. Miss Zhu showed tears in her eyes but never said a word, let alone glanced at him. Brother Cao and I were both present at the time, and we were both shocked by Miss Zhu's fairy demeanor, but I was afraid that the Ma Gang forces would not dare to stand up for her, which was really ashamed. ”

Zhu Yushi said: "That's human nature, Brother Zhou doesn't have to mind." What happened next. Zhou Kai said: "It just so happened that the two brothers of the Zhu family returned to Luoyang with the dart people, and after hearing about it, they hurried to the scene, and they saw Tong Zijian bullying their sister, and the two brothers were furious, and they took the dart master to mingle with the people of the horse gang. More than a hundred dart masters and executioners were certainly not a problem to clean up seven or eight horse thieves. Tong Zijian was beaten the worst, if Zhu Wancheng hadn't rushed to stop it, Tong Zijian would have been beaten to death, and then the Ma Bang and his party fled out of the city in embarrassment. ”

Zhu Yushi said: "I'm afraid that this turmoil won't end like this." Zhou Kai said: "Yes, the turmoil has just begun. Tong Zijian was broken by the people of the dart bureau, and then became a cripple, and walked with a limp, and her sister Tong Xianglian was Lei Zhen's wife, Tong Xianglian was extremely dissatisfied with this matter and asked Lei Zhen to avenge his brother. Lei Zhen didn't want to fall out with Zhu Wancheng for an unsuccessful brother-in-law, but this matter is related to the reputation of the Ma Gang, and he must get back face. We've heard about these things, too, but they're not far from ten. ”

Zhu Yushi said: "How did Lei Zhen earn back face?" Zhou Kai said: "This is Lei Zhen's cleverness, he didn't lead a large team of people to ask for guilt." Because in this way, if Zhu Wancheng unites with the people of Luoyang to fight to the death, the Ma Gang will also lose a lot. Besides, if there is too much movement, Qi Guo will not let it go. He saluted first and then soldiers, and sent people to the Zhu Mansion to apologize, admitting that Tong Zijian was not there. But it also makes it clear that it is the Zhu family to cripple people, and the responsibility of the Zhu family is greater. Zhu Wancheng also wants to resolve this matter, and is willing to pay 1,000 taels of gold to make amends. The people who came said that it was not a matter of money, and the only way to resolve it was to marry Miss Zhu to Tong Zijian. The father and son of the Zhu family were furious when they heard this, which was obviously an insult to the Zhu family. How could the daughter of the Zhu family marry a lame hooligan scoundrel, so she refused on the spot. After the people left, the Zhu family began to recruit troops and horses, and mobilized all the connections to find someone to come to the house to help. Who knew that after three months, there was no movement, and there was no sign of the horse gang coming to seek revenge, and they were also relieved, thinking that it was just thunder and bluffing, so they dispersed. Who knew that Lei Zhen had already sent spies to find out the details of the boxers, and they were killed separately on the way out of Luoyang, and all of them died. ”

Zhu Yushi was shocked and said: "It's really ruthless! This is even more clever than besieging the city and sending reinforcements, it can be said that it is 'tired soldiers and no reinforcements'!" Zhou Kai said: "That's right." Those who are not familiar with Lei Zhen think that he is just a brave and ruthless horseman, but in fact, he is quite good at scheming, otherwise everyone would not be so afraid of him. Zhu Wancheng had no choice but to ask Qi for help, but Qi Guo's money, food and materials all relied on the supply of horse gangs, so he was noncommittal to Zhu Wancheng, did not say help, nor did he say that he would not help, but only persuaded him to turn his hostility into a jade silk. Zhu Wancheng had no choice but to secretly strengthen his vigilance. Fortunately, Luoyang was his territory, and the horse gang did not dare to come to make trouble openly, so they launched an assassination operation. Or seven days or half a month, a friend of Zhu Wancheng will be killed, and there will be an endless stream of pedestrians in Luoyang every day, who knows which stranger is the assassin. For a while, people were panicked, and no one knew who would be assassinated next. One day, a notice written by Lei Zhen suddenly appeared on the bulletin board in the city center, telling Zhu Wancheng's friends not to meddle in their affairs anymore, otherwise they would all be killed. Those who wanted to live stood on the bulletin board and swore an oath to Zhu Wancheng to cut off their robes, and left a corner of the robe with their signatures as evidence. All those who were afraid of death cut off their robes and wrote their names on them, and the strips of cloth piled up on the bulletin board in a day piled up, including many dart masters and executioners of the Central Plains Dart Bureau. Except for Zhu Wancheng's seven worship brothers, no one else dared to be enemies of the horse gang anymore. The seven brothers were also rich and powerful figures in Luoyang, and it was more laborious to assassinate, but the Ma Gang still killed two of them, and three of them were afraid of death, so they came to cut their robes and cut off their righteousness under the bulletin board, leaving only Zhang Daguan and Huang Dayuan who were still supporting Zhu Wancheng. Zhang Daguan was killed at home before we left the city to run errands, and the body that was dragged by a horse just now was Huang Dayuanwai. In fact, the Ma Gang could have already slaughtered the Zhu family, and they were just playing a game of cat and mouse to torture them. ”

Cao Sanmin said: "That one-eyed person is probably the other deputy hall master of Huangxing Hall, Jiao Tiannan, who is known as the 'One-eyed Heavenly Eagle'. Since they killed Zhu Wancheng's last helper, it was time to shoot at the Zhu family, looking at the direction they were riding just now, the destination should be the Zhu family. Zhou Kai shook his head and sighed: "Pitiful, pitiful." If Zhu Wancheng dies, Luoyang will be in chaos again. Zhu Yushi said: "At least Zhu Wancheng is not dead now, and he still has a helper." Zhou Cao and the others were shocked and asked, "Who?" Zhu Yushi smiled and said, "I." (To be continued.) )
