On the outskirts of Qinzhou, within a post station.
Two groups of uninvited guests arrived at this building with thick walls and obvious military style at the same time. They used money to clear the way and used violent threats to drive away several postmen guarding the inn. A confrontation is formed.
A fair-faced, beardless, middle-aged man dressed as a merchant coughed lightly, and smiled in a soft voice: "King Anhua Qiansui, our family has brought the goods. I wonder if you have the money ready?"
Anhua King Zhu Zhixiu, who was quite fat but had a strong face, also responded with a smile, but there seemed to be some indescribable meaning hidden in his smile.
He first waved to him, and from the people gathered behind him, a tall man with a beard walked out and gently placed a wooden box he was carrying on a long wooden table between the two parties.
The box wasn't that big, but when it was placed on the table, it made the tabletop made of thick wood sag slightly. It was obvious that it was not light.
The big man raised his hand and opened the lid of the box. Everyone's eyes were immediately filled with dazzling golden light. It turned out that the box was full of neatly arranged gold bricks.
Seeing that the person opposite was instantly attracted to the box of gold, with greed in his eyes, Zhu Zhixiu sneered secretly: "This Jia Jingzhong is obviously a greedy villain, but he can hold great power with Li Dongyang, Xie Qian and others. The important ministers of the cabinet protested in separate chambers, which shows that Zhu Youtang is really a ruler in vain!"
Jia Jingzhong also had the professional ethics of a businessman. When he saw the other party taking out the money, he immediately took out a yellow silk scroll from his arms, took a few steps forward and unfolded it on the table, placing the empty inner side to the back. The vermilion seal was clearly displayed to Zhu Zhixiu, and then he also waved behind him.
Among all the attendants, someone presented him with the Four Treasures of the Study.
Jia Jingzhong held the pen in hand and said with a smile: "According to the previous agreement, in order to completely reassure the prince, our family will write this imperial edict in person and will never make any mistakes in the text."
"Wait a minute!" Zhu Zhixiu suddenly shouted, and at the same time suppressed the smile on his face, "In Yigu's opinion, the wording of this imperial edict needs to be carefully considered."
Jia Jingzhong was startled at first, and then realized that something was wrong. His expression immediately turned ugly, and his tone became stiff: "How does King Anhua want our family to write this edict?"
Zhu Zhixiu said solemnly: "You can choose your own words, but the content must state that there is a Tatar tribe that is willing to annex the Celestial Empire, so the Gansu Shandan Guards' Xiakou Pass' guard will immediately open and close the gate upon seeing the decree."
After all, Jia Jingzhong was not that stupid yet. After many thoughts, he quickly figured out the information contained in the other party's words. He was shocked and shouted: "How dare you collude with foreigners and plot evil!"
Zhu Zhixiu had no intention of telling the other party any more, and coldly ordered: "Tuotuo, get the imperial edict for my father!"
"Yes, foster father!"
A low, slightly hoarse voice sounded behind Zhu Zhixiu, and then a slim figure floated out like a colorful cloud. The feet in small and exquisite boots slid forward against the long wooden table between the two parties. In an instant, Then he arrived in front of Jia Jingzhong.
"Zhao Da, Qian Er!"
Jia Jingzhong's reaction was not slow. When he saw this woman with her hair in braids like little snakes, her face covered with a veil that added a bit of mysterious charm, and she was wearing a foreign costume from the Western Regions approaching him, he immediately He grabbed the blank imperial edict on the table and quickly backed away. At the same time, he screamed out two false names that were immediately obvious to him.
Two middle-aged men dressed as servants flew out from the crowd, with swords and swords like tigers leaping into the stream, wild dragons coming out of the sea, slashing at the foreign-dressed woman named "Tuotuo" from the left and right.
Just looking at the power of the swords, one can tell that these two unspectacular men definitely have the strength to join the "Weapon Spectrum".
Seeing that the swords in their hands fell on Tuo Tuo's body, the two men relaxed slightly, and then they felt that the blades were weak and had no impact.
When they looked closely in shock, they saw that what was under the sword was not Tuotuo. It was clearly just a thin and light gauze garment that she didn't know how to take off.
I don't know what kind of material this gauze garment is made of. It was not damaged at all by the sharp edge of the sword. It only touched the sword lightly and floated away with the force of the sword.
"The Ten Divine Skills of the Demon Sect, the great method of cicada sloughing for liberation!"
Before these two people joined Jia Jingzhong, they were famous masters in the world, and their vision and knowledge were extraordinary. When they saw this strange scene, they thought of the secret method of the devil's sect that made people blush.
Just as the two of them were feeling frightened, Tuo Tuo, who had appeared behind them at some point, had a seven-foot soft whip that was as flat as a sword and decorated with diamond-shaped spikes at the end. With a shake of his backhand, the soft whip was straight. Stab out, the sharp end of the thorn is like a spirit snake spitting out a message, and it pierces the jade pillow point on the back of the two people's heads with precision and speed.
After killing the enemy with one move, she spun around, put the gauze she had taken off back on her body in the air, and landed lightly back on the table. Without looking at the two corpses that had fallen slumped at her feet, she walked slowly towards the table. Although Jia Jingzhong retreated into the protective circle of his subordinates, his face was still pale with horror, looking down from a high position like a small ant.
"Xuanwu, as long as you stop this witch, we will ensure that you take the position of commander of the Jinyi Guards!"
Jia Jingzhong saw that the two expert guards he had recruited with huge sums of money could not even take a single move from each other, so he hurriedly shouted to a handsome young man next to him dressed as a rich man.
This person is Xuanwu, one of the "Four Spirit Generals" who is only under the command of the Jinyi Guards. His martial arts skills are far superior to those of the two guards.
It's just that he was bribed by Jia Jingzhong, but he was not Jia Jingzhong's subordinate. If he wanted to make him contribute or even sacrifice his life, he had to promise greater benefits.
Upon hearing Jia Jingzhong's promise of a high-ranking official, Xuanwu's eyes flashed with a trace of ridicule, and he responded: "Yes!"
An Xiuchun knife on his waist came out of its sheath. The light of the knife was like an electrode. It was as sharp and cruel as it was. It killed seven or eight of Jia Jingzhong's men around him, opened up a space, and then used his backhand to kill the long sword covered in blood. The knife was pressed on Jia Jingzhong's neck, and his other hand snatched away the blank imperial edict that Jia Jingzhong was holding.
"Your Majesty, I am so lucky to have lived up to my command!"
Hearing Xuanwu's words, Jia Jingzhong was shocked and stunned.
"Haha...well done!" King Anhua laughed, and then ordered sternly, "Take off, leave no one alive!"
"Yes, foster father!"
Tuotuo, who was on the table, heard the words and suddenly flew into the air and jumped into the crowd opposite who was suddenly shocked and at a loss.
These people were also good recruits by Jia Jingzhong. When they saw the enemy approaching alone, they still instinctively wielded their weapons to attack in panic.
Tuotuo transformed in the crowd. From time to time, she took off several layers of gauze and floated in the air to accept attacks on her real body's behalf. The soft whip in her real body's hand bounced out again and again like a poisonous snake that chooses people to eat. , each time taking at least one life.
In just ten breaths, only the underwear was left on the body, and the half-exposed shoulders and chest had slaughtered more than 20 masters on Jia Jingzhong's side, and then like a graceful dance, the seven pieces still floating in the air were removed. Put the gauze clothes back on one by one.
"My lord, spare your life!"
When Jia Jingzhong saw Zhu Zhixiu's murderous eyes on him, his body was like chaff and he trembled for mercy.
Zhu Zhixiu said with a ferocious smile: "Now that I know about my king's important affairs, how can I spare you? Xuanwu..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a high-pitched and melodious shout suddenly came from outside the inn:
"The Sky Eagle Gang is here to kill!"
