"Liu Xianglian...this is really interesting!"
This former son of an aristocratic family also had some legendary experiences in the Red Mansion. Zhu Jinghong never expected to meet him here.
While he was thinking, Hou Jing had another idea.
"Could it be that... Master Thirteen also likes this person?"
Liu Xianglian's martial arts skills were so strong that it would be difficult for others to subdue him. If the Thirteenth Master used force, he would not be able to help himself... The more Hou Jing thought about it, the more excited he became.
Seeing Hou Jing's weird expression, Zhu Jinghong knew that he had bad intentions, so he said in a cold voice: "What I said...isn't it funny?"
Sensing that something was wrong in the atmosphere, Hou Jing quickly replied: "No...it's not funny!"
"Really? Isn't what I said funny?" Zhu Jinghong's expression became more and more unkind.
This frightened Hou Jing, so he replied at a loss: "Maybe... it's a little funny!"
After taking care of this guy, Zhu Jinghong felt better and replied: "Go away!"
"Yes!" Hou Jing felt like she was being pardoned, secretly sighing why she was so unlucky that this man always caught her in the wrong.
After the guy left, Deng An, who was beside Zhu Jinghong, couldn't help but said: "Thirteenth Master... Do you want to check this Liu Xianglian?"
Picking up the wine glass, Zhu Jinghong took a sip and said calmly: "Forget it...he's not an important person!"
He couldn't even pay attention to the characters in the Red Mansion, how could he pay attention to a man.
"yes!"
However, Zhu Jinghong didn't pay attention. Many of the officers and guards below had bad intentions.
There is no way, in this era, masculine style is the fashion, and it is normal for a charming and graceful person like Liu Xianglian to attract covetation.
This also means that in this era, good-looking boys really need to protect themselves, otherwise they can easily be kidnapped.
After Liu Xianglian stepped down, people started looking for opportunities to relieve themselves, although the frequency was higher than before.
Zhu Jinghong didn't care about this. After all, he never imagined that these people were so hungry that a man couldn't wait for a moment.
Of course, although there are many people who are looking for opportunities to leave, there are obviously more people who are staying put.
Amidst the peaceful and cheerful music, Zhu Jinghong was about to continue holding the cup when he heard noise coming from outside. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the sound of fighting.
"What's going on? Let someone go and take a look!" Zhu Jinghong said in a deep voice.
Could someone want to assassinate him again? If this is the case, he may have to go out at noon.
Soon a eunuch came back to report that it was an officer who had gone out to relieve himself and got into a fight with an actor in the troupe.
"A fight started?" Zhu Jinghong became more and more curious.
Are all actors so bold now? Dare to fight against the general who is guarding the army?
"Which actor? Bring him here!" At this moment, Zhu Jinghong had already guessed who it was.
"yes!"
After a few breaths, a few flag-bearing soldiers were seen walking in escorting a Hua Dan, it was Liu Xianglian who had left the show not long ago.
"Kneel down!"
Liu Xianglian had not yet taken off her makeup. There were obvious palm prints on her face, and there were even torn holes in her opera robe. She looked extremely embarrassed as she knelt down.
"What's going on?" Zhu Jinghong looked at the two deputy Qianhu who followed him in.
Liu Xianglian was injured, and the two men were also disheveled. It looked like they didn't get any advantage.
"Thirteenth Master, I went out to relieve myself, but unexpectedly this man became violent and violent. I was almost killed by him!"
"This thief intends to assassinate, please Thirteenth Master punish him severely!"
With just one sentence, the two of them convicted Liu Xianglian. Normally, he was destined to die.
But as long as there is a last glimmer of hope, Liu Xianglian will not give up on saving herself.
The next moment, the guy burst out laughing, surprising everyone present.
"How dare you be so presumptuous in front of the Thirteenth Master?"
Seeing that Qian Hu, who was speaking, was about to take action, Zhu Jinghong said, "Why are you laughing?"
Hearing Zhu Jinghong's question, Liu Xianglian knew that the opportunity had come, and whether he could survive would depend on his next performance.
After careful consideration, Liu Xianglian replied heartily: "I laugh at the fact that Thirteenth Master is a great hero, but he can be deceived by his subordinates and fooled without even realizing it!"
Under the current situation, Liu Xianglian still behaved so freely, which really surprised Zhu Jinghong.
He planned to give Liu Xianglian a chance, so he followed the other person's words and asked, "Who is fooling me?"
"Of course it's the two generals under Thirteenth Master!"
As soon as he said these words, he was immediately scolded by someone beside him: "You bastard... you are so slanderous!"
Another thousand households followed and said, "Master Thirteen... this person is lying and lying, it would be better to kill him to save trouble!"
Raising his hand to signal the two men to shut up, Zhu Jinghong looked at Liu Xianglian with a smile and asked: "These two are loyal ministers of the court, and you are just a showman. Who do you think I should believe?"
If Liu Xianglian does not show value, Zhu Jinghong may not necessarily "do justice".
Although she was kneeling, Liu Xianglian still straightened her neck and said righteously: "The Thirteenth Master doesn't believe in villains, they will just die!"
Regardless of whether this was true or not, Zhu Jinghong admired Liu Xianglian for showing his integrity without fear of life and death.
After all, it's not a joke right now, a careless move could really kill you.
After saying the first sentence, Liu Xianglian continued: "But if the Thirteenth Master does not distinguish between black and white, has no idea of loyalty and betrayal, and wants to make fools of his subordinates, in the eyes of a villain..."
"The so-called working together to plan for major changes... I'm afraid it's like fishing for the moon in the water, or water from a bamboo basket!"
Obviously, Liu Xianglian listened carefully to Zhu Jinghong's speech with the generals just now while waiting, and he was able to point out the so-called "major changes" at this moment.
One sentence awakened Zhu Jinghong.
It doesn't matter if he lies, it doesn't matter if he is lustful, being a good man is also a personal hobby...Zhu Jinghong can forgive these things.
But Zhu Jinghong couldn't forgive him for lying to himself in front of the sufferer.
Obviously, Liu Xianglian grasped the key points and understood Zhu Jinghong's thoughts.
At this moment, Zhu Jinghong's eyes were like sharp blades, sweeping towards the two thousand households on the left and right of Liu Xianglian.
His tone became cold and he asked, "What's going on?"
"Master Thirteen..."
When one of them was about to speak, Hou Jing on the side couldn't help but scolded: "You two idiots...you dare to cheat in front of the Thirteenth Master!"
These words were like a bell, making these two thousand families instantly understand what a critical moment they had reached.
If there are thousands of households in the bodyguard army, there will naturally be no fools. I saw these two people kneeling down, knocking their heads to the ground and confessing: "I am arrogant and making false claims... Please punish me severely!"
These two people are smart people, and Hou Jing, who woke them up on the spot, is also a smart person, but the smartest one is Liu Xianglian who is being held in custody.
Slowly leaning on the back of the chair, Zhu Jinghong sighed slowly as the scene was completely silent: "I thought... I was already a close friend with you, but unexpectedly, some of you lied to me and lied to me!"
He didn't directly get angry at the two Qianhus, but Zhu Jinghong's disappointed words made the two people's hearts pierce even more.
People are most afraid of being the target of public criticism, and the two of them are now in this situation.
If he is expelled from Zhu Jinghong's small circle, it will be a small matter if he loses his bright future, but it will be a big deal if he has no place in the army.
"Thirteenth Master, I have been waiting for ten thousand deaths...I am willing to accept the punishment!"
"I drank a few too many drinks, lost my mind and committed a serious crime. Please punish me severely!"
The two people were talking and kowtowing desperately, which shocked Liu Xianglian.
