Chapter 146 Chen Jie: Feng Xuan, get out of here ( words, please give me a monthly ticket!)
"Wait a moment."
Before entering Darughachi's room, a very beautiful woman came out of the room.
The woman had snow-white skin, spring in her eyes, a curvy figure, and a charming appearance, with qualities that were no less attractive than those of the four most beautiful courtesans in Yihong Tower.
At this time, the woman reached out and stopped Qimugege and Chen Jie.
Then he held out his hand and said, "Please hand over your personal weapons."
This sentence was said to Chen Jie. Chen Jie said nothing after hearing it. He reached out and handed the Qiuchan short blade inserted in his waist to the woman. The woman took the tray held by a maid beside her.
Then he said, "Please raise your hands."
Chen Jie raised his hand, and the woman reached out and searched Chen Jie's body. Finding no weapon, she took a step back.
He made a gesture of invitation.
Qimuge said, "Come in with me."
As they talked, the two of them entered the house. The house was very large, and was filled with many expensive furniture and various gold and silver ornaments. It was obvious that it was extremely wealthy.
The house is divided into two entrances, with an inner door made of beams and pillars in the middle, and a gauze curtain hanging on the door.
A woman's voice could be heard faintly from behind the veil: "Hey, where did this beggar come from? Why are you wearing dirty clothes?"
"Yeah, stay away from people like that. They're all sick, don't get infected."
……
The voice reached Chen Jie's ears through the curtain. Chen Jie frowned slightly, but did not say much. He was indeed wearing tattered clothes.
His coarse cloth clothes were very tattered; he had just returned from fleeing.
But at this moment, a man said, "Get lost!"
"Ah~"
When the women heard the sound, they were startled and immediately stood up and ran away.
At this time, the curtain was opened, and then a middle-aged man wearing white Hanfu, with loose hair, barefoot, and very handsome, walked out.
He has a thin appearance and a Han Chinese goatee. If you don't know him, you might think he is a Han Chinese Confucian scholar.
This image had a great impact on Chen Jie.
This is very different from his impression of the Mulan people. You have to know that the Mulan people mostly have rough looks and their clothes are very ethnic. For example, Qimugege still retains some characteristics of the Mulan people, such as clothes and some special details of life.
But the person in front of him was not dressed like a Mulan person at all. He actually had the spirit of a Han Confucian scholar from the Wei and Jin dynasties, and he had an indescribable sense of freedom and unrestrainedness.
This was totally different from the impression he had of the shrewd and calculating old villain who hid in the shadows and balanced the power of the Mian River.
This looks more like the kind of madman among the Han people.
"Greetings to Lord Darughachi!"
Chen Jie was stunned for a long time, then quickly bowed.
Daruhachi glanced at Chen Jie and said, "Sit down."
When Chen Jie heard this, he saw Darughaci kneeling in front of a low table on the ground, and not far away from him, there was another low table of the same size.
This sitting posture and this low table reminded Chen Jie of the gatherings of literati during the Qin and Han dynasties.
Before the Song Dynasty, scholars, princes, and ministers would sit at separate tables when attending banquets.
Kneeling is a habit only shared by the Han people. Grassland ethnic groups such as the Mulan people are not used to this way of sitting. Even in the early Song Dynasty, no one liked to sit like this.
Chen Jie sat down like Darughachi.
Daruhachi smiled and asked, "Can you drink?"
Chen Jie paused and said, "Yes."
"Okay, bring the wine."
Soon, five maids knelt in front of the banquet with trays in their hands, each with a type of wine on the tray.
There are also different types, including the mare's milk wine of the Mulan people, the rice wine of the Han people, the wine from the Western Regions, etc!
"What kind of drink do you like?"
Chen Jie hesitated for a moment and said, "All are fine."
Daluhachi said: "Leave the Han wine, and take the rest."
"Yes."
The rice wine was kept, and several maids came up and poured a jade bowl for each of Darughachi and Chen Jie.
Darughachi drank it in one gulp, and then said: "Ah~ Since ancient times, saints and wise men have all been lonely, only drinkers leave their names... Hahaha, good wine, good wine."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jie also drank the wine in one gulp.
This wine is indeed full of aroma, but I didn’t taste any good after aging it. Maybe it’s not a very good wine.
Moreover, Chen Jie was confused now. What the hell? He came here by himself without saying a word and drank a glass first. What was he here for? Was he here to drink for free?
And this Darughachi is different from what I thought?
The people of Mulan know that they love wine. In the court, among the Mulan nobles, there is no one who doesn’t drink.
But what's the meaning of this dress? And the first thing you say is Li Bai's poem. You are a Mulan noble, not a Han Chinese lunatic. You're confusing me.
Chen Jie was daydreaming.
Daruhachi suddenly spoke up: "Chen Jiusi!"
"Sir, it's me!"
Chen Jie clasped his fists.
"What do you want from me? You don't want to drink this glass of wine, do you?"
Darughaci held the jade bowl in his hand and looked at Chen Jie.
"Sir, I want to seek justice from you."
Daruhachi smiled and said, "Seeking justice, that's interesting. The Han people have their own county magistrates, and the gangs have their own leaders. Do they need to seek justice from a Mulanese like me?"
After hearing this, Chen Jie immediately said, "Sir, the county magistrate does not interfere in Jianghu affairs. As for the gang leader, the person I want to sue is the gang leader, Nan Batian."
"Oh?"
After hearing this, Darughachi smiled and said, "To defeat the superior with the inferior, you are so brave!"
"If the grievances were not as deep as the sea, who would dare to overthrow the superior?"
"How could there be such an injustice?"
"Even if the injustice is so great, it is hard to appease it even if it snows in June."
Upon hearing this, Darughachi waved his hand, and the maid beside him immediately poured another glass of wine. Darughachi shook the wine bowl and said, "But in this world, not all grievances can be redressed."
Chen Jie said: "It is rare to meet a clear and honest person, and you are my clear and honest person!"
"Haha... You are very brave to use the officials of the former Song Dynasty to compare the officials of this dynasty."
"Officials are divided into the past and present dynasties, but the sky is the same. Please make the decision for me, sir!"
Chen Jie clasped his fists and lowered his head.
After hearing this, Daruhaci sat down on the cushion below and gulped down a glass of wine.
"Tell me what grievance you have."
"Thank you, sir. I am suing Nan Batian and my sworn brother Feng Xuan for conspiring to murder my father Peng Shizhong..."
……
Chen Jie told the whole story from beginning to end. Darughachi knew about this matter and he had been paying close attention to it recently, but he still listened and waited for Chen Jie to finish.
He gently put down the wine bowl and said, "You mean, they conspired to kill Peng Shizhong, and then pinned the blame on you, making you the murderer of Peng Shizhong?"
"That's right! Please, sir, redress my injustice."
Hearing this, Darughachi laughed and said, "It does sound unfair, but Nan Batian is my man. Don't you think it's ridiculous that you come to me and sue me?"
"Sir, this is absurd. He is more than just someone who wants to be an adult!"
Upon hearing this, Darughachi asked, "What do you mean by this?"
Chen Jie said: "Sir, you also know that before my adoptive father died, he thought highly of me, so he told me many things that I shouldn't know, including the reason why my White Tiger Hall was able to take root."
"The fishing gang and the shipping gang are too big to be eliminated. It is not easy to deal with them. You need a tool to balance the two. My White Tiger Hall is this tool. My adoptive father is the real master's man!"
Upon hearing this, Darughaci said nothing but had a smile on his face.
Chen Jie couldn't tell the depth of his words, but he still said, "However, the existence of my adoptive father hindered Nan Batian's idea of unifying the fishing gang, so he conspired with Feng Xuan to murder my adoptive father, making the White Tiger Hall ownerless, and then supported Feng Xuan to steal the White Tiger Hall. In this way, the White Tiger Hall completely lost its role in balancing the fishing gang and the Cao Gang, and became the private property of Nan Batian."
"Sir, you just said that Nan Batian is your man. If he is really your man, why are you in such a hurry to make your things his?"
Chen Jie looked at Darughaci. Darughaci still had no expression on his face when he heard what was said, and he tapped the table lightly with his hands.
Chen Jie paused for a moment and said, "Sir, I came to you today not only to ask you to redress my grievances and avenge my adoptive father, but also because I want to be your man. I will take back the White Tiger Hall for you. From now on, I will help you balance the fishing gang and the canal gang. How about I be the knife in your hand?"
Daruhachi tapped the tabletop even faster, and then said, "I heard Feng Xuan is also a talented person."
After hearing this, Chen Jie immediately understood the implication. Feng Xuan is also a talent, why do I have to have you?
"Sir, a talented person must be loyal to you. If Feng Xuan really wanted to join you, why didn't he come here yet? He thought that he could rest easy by clinging to Nan Batian's thigh. How can you use a person like him?"
"Let's take a step back. Even if this person is really subdued by you, how can you know if he has evil intentions like Nan Batian?"
"Sir, do you know a saying among the Han people?"
After hearing this, Darughachi asked, "What?"
"It is better to help someone in need than to add icing on the cake. Feng Xuan is now in high spirits and will be inaugurated as the head of the White Tiger Hall tomorrow. At this moment, all the favors you have shown him are nothing in his eyes. What he has gained does not require your help. You have no way to convince him."
"But I am different. I am at the end of my rope and being hunted down. Now I can only rely on you to seek justice. If you can help me, it would be like a timely help. Don't I still remember your kindness for the rest of my life?"
"Sir, do you have a choice now?"
Chen Jie clasped his fists, looked at Darughachi, and spoke with extreme sincerity.
After hearing this, Darughachi stopped tapping the table and looked at Chen Jie and asked, "Have you had dinner?"
Chen Jie clasped his fists and said, “Never.”
"prepare dinner."
Daruhachi waved his hand and asked the maid beside him to go down and prepare.
Then he looked at Chen Jie and said, "You have convinced me, but I have a few points to make clear to you. First, whether Nan Batian is involved in this matter or not, I am not going to touch him."
"I understand. Nan Batian and Liu Laoguai are the pillars of the two gangs of Yucao and Yucao. They cannot be easily touched. And my enemy is Feng Xuan."
Daruhachi said: "That's good. Secondly, you said you were wronged, you need evidence, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the White Tiger Hall. If you can't help me take over the White Tiger Hall, then you are worthless!"
Chen Jie said, "Yes, sir, don't worry, I have evidence. The actress Hua Die who participated in the murder of my adoptive father has been caught, and she has told everything."
Daruhachi was stunned and said, "Would Nan Batian leave such a big flaw? It's not like his style."
Chen Jie said: "Sir, everyone has weaknesses after all."
Daruhachi did not ask further questions and continued, "So, now that you are all ready, what do you need me to do?"
Chen Jie said: “Sir, revenge is my business, I can do it, but if Nan Batian intervenes, I can’t avenge my adoptive father, so Nan Batian, please help me!”
Hearing this, Darughachi said, "Well, I will ask Qimuge to go there tomorrow. Nan Batian will not stop you. But I have to remind you that Feng Xuan has already entered the state of transformation. He is not easy to deal with. Are you sure you can kill him and avenge yourself?"
Chen Jie said with absolute certainty: "Yes!"
Darughaci gave Qimuge a look, and Qimuge took direct action.
"Take my slap!"
Upon hearing the sound, Chen Jie jumped up almost as if by reflex, and then suddenly slapped out with his stone-breaking hand.
Snapped!
With a sound, the two palms met. The next moment, Chen Jie took two steps back. Qi Muge also took a step back. A strange look appeared on his face. He said, "What a great palm power. You have learned nine points of Peng Shizhong's true teachings!"
Chen Jie also clasped his fists and said, "Commander Qimuge, please show mercy."
Upon hearing this, Darughachi smiled and said, "Very good, this way, great things can be accomplished."
Chen Jie also smiled, but there was a trace of shock on his face. Qimugege was incredibly powerful. If he didn't use the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms, he would not be able to beat Qimugege. Moreover, this man never left his sword and was obviously more proficient in swordsmanship. So it seemed that he was not in his strongest state just now.
If this person had used a knife just now, his strength would probably be no weaker than Nan Batian. The strength of this Mulan man is really amazing. A commander has such strength, he should not be underestimated!
Chen Jie kept it in mind secretly.
Things were very simple after that. After Chen Jie expressed his loyalty, he officially became one of Darughachi's spokespersons in the underworld. He was officially on the table and was no longer a dish in the eyes of many bigwigs in Mianshui.
During the conversation, Chen Jie also gained a preliminary understanding of this Darughaci.
Darughachi is an official of Daqian, superior to local government officials, which is a bit like seeing an official one level higher than him.
Divided into county darughachi, prefecture darughachi, and road darughachi.
The administrative unit planning of Daqian is county government road, and the road unit is roughly equivalent to the province in this era.
For example, Hubei Road and Henan Road refer to these two provinces.
The place where Chen Jie was located was Hubei Road, Huangzhou Prefecture, and Mianshui County.
The Darughachi in front of him was the county Darughachi, but he was of noble origin. He was not an ordinary Mulan noble, and his ancestors had produced many great figures.
This Darughachi, whose surname was Yelu, was from Yelu Chucai, the first prime minister of the founding of Daqian and the prime minister of three dynasties!
The Yelu family was also a truly large family that had prospered for nearly a hundred years. However, it had been ostracized by the imperial court in the past decade or so, and the reason was very simple.
Because the Yelu family advocated that the Mulan people learn Han culture, which is referred to as sinicization!
This proposition was a very important one during the reign of Kublai Khan, and it also enabled Kublai Khan to conquer the world.
But times have changed. By this time, the Mulan people have firmly established their rule over the world. They no longer need the support of the Han people. They even began to plan to grab land in the south and implement the policy of converting the land of the south to the north because they did not have enough land and slaves.
In such a political environment, the Yelu clan, who actively assimilated into Han culture, became completely alienated and were directly ostracized by the noble circles in the capital.
Except for some direct descendants of the headquarters, all the children from farther away were sent to remote areas to serve as minor officials, such as the Darughachi in front of him, Yelu Feng!
And this Lord Yelu was really assimilated into the Han culture thoroughly. Apart from having the heart of a Mulan noble, his behavior was truly that of a Han Chinese.
He particularly liked the style of Han and Tang dynasties, among which Li Bai was the best.
Therefore, his dress is similar to Li Bai, white clothes, Hanfu, and his behavior is mostly arrogant and unruly.
However, Chen Jie saw conspiracy and scheming in his arrogance and unruliness. He was definitely not a free and easy poet like Li Bai.
To serve him or cooperate with him is more like trying to get the skin of a tiger.
But that's how the world is. When you are weak, you have to seize every opportunity.
Chen Jie thought that the dinner would be a sumptuous Mulan tribe lamb banquet, but the result surprised Chen Jie, because this was a high-standard banquet.
What they ate was actually sashimi!
Well, Chen Jie didn’t think that eating sashimi was not noble, but Chen Jie always felt that it was inconsistent with his imagination.
Especially when he saw Yelu eating raw carp slices in big mouthfuls, Chen Jie always thought of reports about various parasites, so Chen Jie didn't eat much for this meal.
However, Chen Jie knew about Yelu's two hobbies.
Good wine, good sashimi, but sashimi is even better than wine.
There was even a lake in his mansion. Lord Yelu would go fishing every day and eat the fish he caught raw.
And they call it the ancient style.
This is true. Sashimi is raw fish slices, also known as fish sashimi, which has existed since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. "The Book of Songs. Xiaoya. June" records: "Drinking with friends, roasting turtle and carp sashimi."
I have to say that Lord Yelu has an ancient style and is more like a Han Chinese than Chen Jie!
After the meal, Chen Jie was about to leave. Before leaving, Chen Jie found Qimugege.
"Commander Qimuge, I want to discuss something with you."
Qimuge was stunned and looked at him and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Lend me two Mulan warriors."
"what?"
Qimuge was stunned. What do you want?
Chen Jie said: "Lend me two Mulan warriors."
Qimuge asked cautiously, "What are you going to do?"
Chen Jie leaned over to Qimuge's ear and whispered something. Qimuge's eyes widened: "You are too bold. That woman didn't say anything yet, and you dared to tell Lord Darughachi that she was willing to testify?"
Chen Jie laughed after hearing this and said, "Haha... As long as the commander is willing to help, won't she be able to ask for help?"
Qimuge said, "What if she doesn't speak?"
Chen Jie's face showed a hint of coldness as he said, "She will definitely speak up!"
Qimugege looked at Chen Jie and knew that there were many ways to deal with a person, and even more ways to deal with a woman, so it was not difficult to speak. There were also two Mulan warriors. When the woman saw the Mulan people, her psychological defense would collapse. Then she would have no problem asking anything and saying anything.
Qimuge said: "I can lend you the person, but I have to report to Lord Yelu."
After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Of course."
"That's fine."
Qimuge called two Mulan warriors and said to them, "This is Chen Jiusi. You will listen to him from now on."
The two Mulan warriors, wearing armor, looked at Chen Jie and said, "Yes."
The two knew that Chen Jie was now Lord Yelu's guest of honor, so his attitude was respectful and not arrogant at all.
Chen Jie clasped his fists and said, "Thank you very much."
With that, Chen Jie left with two Mu Lan soldiers.
When Qimuge came to the study, Lord Yelu held a wine pot in one hand and wrote with a brush in the other: [Drink wine, don't stop! ]
"grown ups."
Qimuge reported the situation. Yelu laughed and said, "You are quite clever!"
Qimuge heard this and said, "Sir, this person executed first and reported later. I am afraid that it will be difficult to control him in the future."
Upon hearing this, Yelu looked at Qimuge and asked, "What about Nan Batian?"
Qimuge said: "The appearance of a tyrant."
Yelu said, "Where is Old Monster Liu?"
"He is also a cunning person."
Yelu said: "Both of them are difficult to deal with. If we find a sheep to balance them, I'm afraid even the bones will be eaten. The one who can balance the hungry wolf must at least be a fox!"
After hearing this, Qimuge said, "This...I don't understand."
Yelu said: "Haha, checks and balances, governing a big country is like cooking a small fish, and governing a county is also like this. The Han people are really wise. They actually understood this wisdom thousands of years ago. At that time, our ancestors were still eating raw meat and drinking blood, right?"
Qimuge did not answer. Yelu waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can go down first."
"Yes."
……
Shunfeng Escort Agency!
"Ninety-four!"
Zhou Chu opened the door to the backyard. He had told Grandpa Sun about today's events in advance, but he said to Grandpa Sun: "Father-in-law, today's events are all my business, so you should just pretend you don't know. If something happens in the future, you can shirk all responsibility and keep the family safe."
His meaning was very simple. Helping Chen Jie was a matter of life and death. If Sun Buer participated, it would represent the Shunfeng Escort Agency's position.
The situation is unclear now. Zhou Chu is willing to risk his life for Chen Jie, but the Sun family cannot do that.
So there was no one in the entire backyard today.
"Fifth Master!"
When Chen Jie walked in, he saw eight of his men with glowing eyes. These were good brothers selected by Zhou Chu and had gone through life and death tests in the past few days.
"Well, you guys suffered."
"I am willing to go through fire and water for Master Wu!"
The eight people were very excited; they finally had hope.
"What about people?"
Chen Jie looked at Zhou Chu, and Zhou Chu pointed to the woodshed not far away.
"Brother Hong is here too?"
Chen Jie asked.
"exist."
Zhou Chudao, after hearing this, Chen Jie immediately went to see Wu Hong. At this time, Wu Hong was leaning against the door with his eyes closed, resting. He was a little sleepy.
I didn't sleep all day and night yesterday, and I rushed hundreds of miles to capture people. Even the strongest man could not bear it.
Chen Jie pushed Wu Hongdao at this time; "Brother Hong."
"Ok!"
Wu Hong came back to his senses, and Chen Jie said, "Brother Hong, thank you for your hard work this time."
Wu Hong heard this and said, "Ah, he fell asleep. Why are we brothers talking about this? I've caught him back for you."
At this time, Chen Jie turned around and saw a woman curled up in the corner with her hands and feet tied.
When the woman saw Chen Jie, she was terrified to the extreme, her eyes widened: "Woo woo..."
With a rag stuffed in her mouth, she couldn't speak and could only sob in fear. She didn't know what kind of ending she would face and how this man would treat her.
Thinking of this, Chen Jie said to Wu Hong: "Brother Hong, you should go back first and have a good rest."
As he spoke, Chen Jie took out a Tai Sui Dan from his hand and put it into Wu Hong's hand.
Wu Hong was stunned, Chen Jie said: "Don't let anyone know, take the Tai Sui Pill, and then take the Hua Ling Pill, it will greatly increase the chance of entering the Hua Jin state!"
"Ninety-four!"
Wu Hong wanted to shirk responsibility, but Chen Jie continued in a low voice, "Don't get involved in this matter any further. Also, we should keep our relationship a little distant from each other. If the two of us are too close, people will be afraid of us."
"Ok?"
Wu Hong looked at Chen Jie, and Chen Jie said, "Listen to your brother, that's right."
Wu Hong said: "Then 94..."
Chen Jie looked at Wu Hong and said, "Haha, Brother Hong, a righteous imperial constable wouldn't get too close to gang members, right?"
Wu Hong understood that Chen Jie wanted to use this as an excuse to distance himself from him.
Wu Hong glanced at the two Mu Lan soldiers not far away, as if he understood something. He looked at Chen Jie, smiled bitterly, then turned and left.
People in the arena involuntarily.
This is what it means when you enter the world, you have no choice.
It doesn't matter how good the two little guys are, but when I become a Hua Jin, I will also become a force that influences the Mian River. At that time, if my relationship with Chen Jie is still the same, then it will be terrible. The officials and bandits are colluding, and the higher-ups will be uneasy.
Wu Hong left. Zhou Chu came over and looked at Chen Jie and asked, "Why did Brother Hong leave?"
Chen Jie sneered, "Humph, a noble person, leave him alone, let's get down to business."
Chen Jie's voice was cold and clear. From now on, we must learn to keep our distance.
Thinking of this, Chen Jie turned around and sat on a chair beside him, then gave Zhou Chu a wink.
Zhou Chu went over and took out the rag that was used to gag him.
"Cough cough cough..."
Huadie's mouth was released and she coughed desperately. Chen Jie was not in a hurry. The night was long, so why should he be anxious?
At this time, Chen Jie took a sip of tea and said, "Old Zhou, is there anything to eat? Give me something. I didn't have enough to eat at night."
Zhou Chu was stunned when he heard this, and then he said, "Only noodles."
"Then bring the next bowl of noodles."
Chen Jie said that he was really not full today as he drank a lot of wine at Yelu's place. As for the sashimi, Chen Jie only ate one piece and could not eat any more.
So he drank on an empty stomach, and his stomach was churning violently.
After hearing this, Zhou Chu said, "Hey, now that you mention it, I'm hungry too. I'll wait."
As he spoke, Zhou Chu went out and quickly brought back two bowls of noodles. He sat down opposite Chen Jie and placed a large bowl of hand-rolled noodles in front of Chen Jie.
Pure hand-rolled noodles with big chunks of meat floating on top, looking fragrant, and an egg.
The same was true for Zhou Chu's bowl. The two of them ate the noodles in front of Hua Die.
"Give me a piece of garlic."
Chen Jie took a clove of garlic from Zhou Chu and started to pick it up by himself, eating a mouthful of noodles, meat and garlic, and it was delicious.
Gududu…
Hua Die's stomach growled as she watched this. She hadn't eaten anything this morning when she was captured by Wu Hong. She had been running all the way without even a sip of water. Now she was starving, and watching Chen Jie and the other two eat noodles was such a torture.
And I was nervous, but they didn't even ask me a single question. Who can stand this?
"Hello~"
Huadie called out, but Chen Jie and Zhou Chu ignored her and continued to eat their noodles. Chen Jie asked, "What's missing?"
Zhou Chu swallowed a mouthful of noodles and said, "It would be nice to have a little vinegar."
Chen Jie said: "Well, brothers still know how to eat."
"Bring me some vinegar."
Zhou Chu shouted to the outside, then drank a sip of noodle soup, and the two of them continued to eat as if no one was around.
Huadie couldn't stand it anymore and said angrily: "Why did you two arrest me?"
Chen Jie was eating noodles at this time, looking at her and said, "Don't you know?"
"What do I know? I know nothing?"
Huadie continued to be stubborn, but Chen Jie ignored her and drank a mouthful of noodle soup and said, "Oh, that's fine, just stay here."
At this time, the younger brother next to him brought vinegar. Chen Jie sprinkled some vinegar, and Zhou Chu took it and sprinkled some vinegar as well.
Continuing to eat, Huadie said, "You, you let me go, I really don't know anything!"
Chen Jie and Zhou Chu also ignored her.
"Hey, are you listening to me? How can you do this to me? I am Mr. Peng's woman!"
Snapped!
As soon as the woman finished speaking, Zhou Chu smashed the bowl of noodles in anger.
"You stinky cousin, you still know that you are Master Peng's woman? When you poisoned Master Peng, why didn't you remember that you were Master Peng's woman? You..."
"Okay, okay, it's a pity this side."
Chen Jie continued to eat slowly.
Zhou Chu stared at Hua Die. Hua Die was frightened at this time, her face turned pale and she dared not speak.
Chen Jie put the last noodle into his mouth, drank a sip of tea, and rinsed his mouth.
“Hehe…Pah!”
He picked up the handkerchief on the table and wiped his mouth and said, "Miss Huadie, you and I both know what happened at the Chunfeng Theater that day. I was wrongly accused, but my adoptive father died. There must be someone behind this. You know who the mastermind is, and I know who the mastermind is too. We should have nothing to say. You killed my adoptive father, so I should kill you to avenge myself."
After hearing this, Huadie’s face turned extremely pale.
"However, this matter is different now, because the person who wants to know the truth of this matter is no longer me, so you need to tell him about this matter!"
"You two, come in!"
Chen Jie cleared his throat, and then two people came in from outside. They were dressed as Mu Lan soldiers and stood at the door.
Huadie's heart trembled suddenly. How could there be Mu Lan soldiers?
Chen Jie said: "I know that Nan Batian is your backer, so you think you will be fine and Nan Batian will protect you."
"But today, the matter is what Lord Darughachi wants to know. As for who Lord Darughachi is, I don't need to introduce him, right?"
"To put it simply, Nan Batian is a dog of Lord Daruhachi. Now the dog's owner wants to know the truth. Tell us!"
Chen Jie looked at Hua Die and said.
Huadie's face was full of horror as she looked at the two orchid herders in front of her.
Chen Jie said: "So you can talk about it now!"
Huadie bit her lip, her face pale, but she didn't let go. Chen Jie said, "I'm sorry if you don't want to tell me."
Chen Jie stood up, looked at the two Mulan soldiers and said, "I'll leave her to you!"
The two Mulan soldiers immediately showed a smile that all men understand: Hehehehe...
Huadie was trembling all over. Zhou Chu frowned slightly. He was a little uncomfortable with this. Chen Jie was the same, but he was doing things for him... Those who achieve great things do not care about trivial matters.
Chen Jie came to the door, turned his head to look at Hua Die and said, "Enjoy it."
The two Mulan soldiers had already started taking off their armor and pants, and were about to engage in a fierce fight.
Huadie screamed: "Ah, don't... don't..."
"Chen, Chen Jiusi, tell them to stop. I am your godfather's woman! How can you be worthy of Master Peng if you do this?"
Huadie cried.
Chen Jie suddenly turned around and shouted angrily: "You fucking still know that you are Master Peng's woman, what the fuck did you do? You teamed up with Nan Batian and Feng Xuan, drugged him, and then killed him, and you still have the nerve to mention him now, you are a beast."
"Go ahead, treat her in the most cruel way possible, so that she can neither live nor die!"
"Ah... no, no..."
stab...
Huadie's clothes were torn apart, which completely broke her psychological defenses. She shouted, "Let them stop, stop, Master Peng, Master Peng, I was wrong, I was wrong..."
"I'm sorry, I was wrong, I was wrong... wuwu..."
Huadie broke down and cried, her heart completely broken.
Zhou Chu then went over and winked at the two Mulan soldiers, then took out two ten-liang silver ingots from his pocket and handed them over: "Thank you for your hard work, brothers."
Seeing the money, the two Mu Lan soldiers immediately smiled happily. Although they didn't get anything, they had the silver, so this trip was not a loss.
The two Mulan soldiers retreated, and Chen Jie came to Hua Die. Naturally, his younger brother brought him a chair. Chen Jie sat down and looked down at Hua Die who broke down and cried: "Speak."
"Wuwu... I didn't want to do this either. They captured my brother and forced me to do it..."
"They said that the drug would only make people weak. I didn't want to kill Mr. Peng. I really didn't..."
"I didn't know Master Peng would die. I... I was wrong..."
Huadie broke down and cried.
Chen Jie watched her cry, but he had no sympathy, he just asked: "Who are they?"
Hua Die said, "I, I was bought by Nan Batian. They, they locked me up in a place and arranged for me to learn various things. Later, they sent me to Chunfeng Theater and asked me to meet Master Peng. On the day of the accident, it was Feng Xuan who found me and gave me medicine. He had Nan Batian's token, so I had to listen to him..."
"Later, I lied and said I was heartbroken. Then Mr. Peng came and I tricked him into drinking the poisoned wine."
"My godfather never doubted it from beginning to end?"
Zhou Chu asked at this time.
Huadie shook her head and said, "No, the medicine is colorless and tasteless, and he never doubted it."
After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Even if the wine you gave him was poisonous, he would still drink it."
Huadie was silent and sobbing. Chen Jie: "Go on."
"Later, Master Peng felt unwell. He looked at me with disappointment and pain in his eyes. He asked me who did it. Just then, Feng Xuan came in from the tunnel!"
"typical?"
Chen Jie looked at Huadie.
Huadie said, "Well, there is a secret passage under my bed that leads up. Feng Xuan came up."
"Mr. Peng looked at him in disbelief. His eyes showed disappointment, disbelief, and despair. He looked at Feng Xuan and asked, "Did you arrange this?"
"Feng Xuan laughed like crazy and said: Godfather, hahahaha... I didn't expect that you would have this day... Do you regret not listening to Chen Jiusi, hahaha..."
"He said a lot, he was like a madman. After listening to him, Master Peng's eyes were full of despair. I can still remember what Master Peng said at that time: I don't regret not listening to Jiu Si, I regret how I raised you to be like this."
"Zheng Chuan is like this, and you are like this too. I regret it..."
Hua Die looked at Chen Jie. Chen Jie and Zhou Chu were all silent. Indeed, Peng Shizhong's education was a failure. The two guys who were raised since childhood were both ungrateful.
Zheng Chuan was arrogant and Feng Xuan was sinister, and neither of them looked like what Peng Shizhong hoped.
He protected them all his life, wanting them to grow up to be friendly and respectful to each other, but in the end they ended up like this, how sad!
Chen Jie and Zhou Chu both felt sorry for Peng Shizhong.
"And then you know, he asked me to come out and call you, and put the blame of everything on you."
Hua Die sobbed as she spoke, and Chen Jie and Zhou Chu were silent. This turned out to be the truth.
Chen Jie sighed, stood up and said to Hua Die, "Tomorrow, at Feng Xuan's inauguration ceremony, you should tell everyone about this. This will be a way of honoring Master Peng's spirit in heaven. Can you do it?"
Chen Jie looked at Hua Die, and Hua Die looked up at Chen Jie.
Chen Jie said: "Tomorrow, the Darughachi Mansion will send a commander to represent the Darughachi. You will not be in danger if you tell them. If you don't tell them!"
Chen Jie didn't say anything, but everything else was self-explanatory.
If you don't tell me, something terrible will happen.
Zhou Chu also said to Hua Die at this time: "You have to understand that Nan Batian also has to listen to Daruhachi. We have to figure out who is the king of Mianshui County!"
After saying that, he followed Chen Jie and left. When they were outside, Chen Jie said to Zhou Chu, "Find her some new clothes to change into, and prepare some food for her."
"Just let her starve to death. My godfather likes her so much, but she...Okay, I'll do it."
Zhou Chu complained and followed suit.
Chen Jie looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with inexplicable emotions: "Adoptive father, please watch out in heaven, I will avenge you tomorrow and make that unfilial son kowtow to you in heaven to atone for his sins!"
……
There was nothing to say all night, and it was dawn the next day.
The White Tiger Hall was decorated with lights and there was a high platform built in the spacious area of the hall, which was filled with guests and friends. All the important people in Mianshui County came to congratulate.
Because the person presiding today is Nan Batian, leader of the Fishing Gang and the chief of the Thirteen Guardians of Mianshui.
If they don't target Feng Xuan, how could they not target Nan Batian's face?
Feng Xuan was also wearing a white satin dress at this time, with a smile on his face, welcoming the four guests.
"Thirteen Taibao, the beauty lady is here!"
Feng Xuan heard it and immediately came out to greet him: "It is a great honor for Miss Hongyan to come and support us."
"Leader Liu of the Cao Gang has arrived~"
"Boss Liu, please take a seat."
Feng Xuan greeted him with a friendly face!
"Daruhachi Mansion, Commander Qimuge has arrived!"
"Ah, Commander, please come in and take a seat, take a seat!"
Feng Xuan was overjoyed at this time. He was inaugurated as the leader of the White Tiger Hall, and even the Darughachi Mansion came to congratulate him. What a glorious moment it was!
Hahaha……
Feng Xuan excitedly welcomed guests from all over, and soon everyone arrived.
The fishing gang's legal advisor Tang Ziyue personally presided over the ceremony. He went on stage and gave a speech which received thunderous applause.
Zhou Chu was cracking melon seeds below, looking around to check the time. Why hadn't Jiu Si arrived yet? If he didn't come soon, the ceremony would be over.
Just when he was getting anxious, he heard Tang Ziyue say, "Now, please invite the new leader of the White Tiger Hall, Feng Xuan, to say a few words to everyone."
At this time, Feng Xuan came on stage amidst the compliments of the crowd, his face flushed and full of energy!
"Haha, first of all, thank you all for coming. How could I, Feng, be able to take on the important task of the White Tiger Hall? For me to be able to have what I have today, the first person I want to thank is my adoptive father Peng Shizhong..."
boom!
"You are the only one who is worthy of mentioning my adoptive father's name, you bastard who killed my father and seized his throne! Get off my feet!"
Just as everyone was preparing to listen to Feng Xuan's exciting speech, there was a sudden loud bang, and five or six members of the fishing gang were thrown in, and at the same time the door of the banquet hall exploded!
A red tasseled spear broke through the door and flew directly towards Feng Xuan.
Feng Xuan dodged in shock, but with a bang, the spear pierced the wooden sign with the word "loyalty" behind Feng Xuan!
Then a man broke in through the door. The next moment, everyone looked at him, and then they all widened their eyes in disbelief. How dare he come in?
Someone even called out his name:
Chen Jiusi!!!
