Mengshang Garden.
"I didn't expect you to be so bad after not seeing me for so many days," He Dinghong said. "According to my observation, you are still a baby. Whatever you want tonight, I will accompany you to the end, okay?"
"How dare you?" Zhen Sifei laughed, "I'm telling you, you don't know something, just because I had a drink at your place last time and almost got shot when I went back."
"Is it that serious?" He Dinghong asked.
"yes."
"Then why do you dare to come today?"
"First, I came here today to see you, and second, I have a little thing to ask for your help with." Zhen Si said, taking out a banknote from his arms and handing it to He Dinghong.
She unfolded it and saw that there was one thousand taels on it. Her eyes couldn't help but light up and she asked, "What do you mean? Is all this money given to me?"
"Exactly."
"I really didn't realize that you were so rich and generous," He Dinghong said with a smile, "Where did you get so much money?"
"Don't worry about it. It's not stolen or robbed anyway. You can rest assured that this is all."
"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
"Actually, it's nothing. It's just that I didn't know Xiahou Zhong last time. In fact, I think he is quite a good person. I have the honor to come to you today and want to meet him again. Therefore, I want to Please edit a letter and send someone to Hongmakan to invite him over. Let's have a drink, chat and make friends. What do you think?" Zhen Sifei said.
"Invite Xia Houzhong to drink? Is it that simple?" He Dinghong asked.
"Yes, it's that simple."
"Didn't you want to take revenge on him because he asked the Japanese to take you away last time?" He Dinghong looked at him with doubtful eyes and asked.
"How could it be? I've forgotten that incident. What's past is in the past. Look, I'm standing here properly now. I don't have a piece of flesh missing from my body. Why should I take revenge on him?" Zhen Si Fei said.
"Are you sure you're not looking for him to settle the score?" He Dinghong was still a little worried.
"Absolutely not, I just want to be friends with him."
"Well, for the sake of the money, I can send him a letter, but what if he doesn't come?" He Dinghong said.
"Just say that you suddenly fell ill, were seriously ill, and were in critical condition. If you want to see him one last time, I don't think he will not come." Zhen Sifei said.
"I didn't expect you to have a lot of clever ideas, but this seems a bit unethical," He Dinghong sighed, "Okay, then I'll do as you say."
So Heding Hongzhen wrote a letter and ordered a servant to ride a fast horse to Hongmakan immediately.
About two or three hours later, Xia Houzhong really arrived.
"Old Madam, is He Dinghong sick? Is it serious? She was fine a few days ago, why did she suddenly become ill?" Xia Houzhong asked as soon as he entered the door and saw the Madam.
"No, she is fine tonight." The madam said.
"Not sick? Then why did she send someone to send me a letter saying that she was very ill and wanted to see me for the last time." Xia Houzhong was very confused.
"However, there is a guest here tonight, the same Zhen Sifei who fought with you last time." The madam said.
"What? She actually dared to lie to me! This bitch seduced that boy behind my back." Xia Houzhong was furious when he heard this and gritted his teeth in hatred, "Do you know who that boy is? He turns out to be from the Chenjiayu Security Team He has now taken refuge in the government and has become a minion of the government. Let me see if I don’t shoot him today!”
"Uncle, no matter who he is, I hope you can live together peacefully and not fight," the madam said. "I think that person is pretty good. You can make friends."
"Fuck you! He is a member of the government now, and we are beards. We are incompatible with each other, how can we make friends?" Xia Houzhong said, pulling out the gun from his waist.
"Oh, sir, please don't make trouble!" When the madam saw him pulling out the gun, he was so frightened that he lost his mind.
Xia Houzhong was furious and ignored her. He quietly went up to the second floor and came to the door of Hedinghong's room.
He listened carefully, but there was no sound inside.
So, he gently pushed the door open and looked inside. The room was empty, except for the red crane-ding lying on the bed, as if asleep.
Xia Houzhong felt strange. Didn't the madam just say that Zhen Sifei was here? Where were the others?
So, holding the pistol in his right hand, he stepped into the house.
As soon as he entered the door, someone suddenly kicked him and kicked the gun out of his hand. Another person grabbed him from behind and hugged him. Then, he picked up Lao Gao and threw him to the ground with a "pop", almost losing his life. He threw him to the point where bubbles bubbled up from both ends.
Before he could react, he was tied up with ropes, single three buckles, double three buckles, tied tightly.
"Xia Houzhong, do you still know me?" Zhen Sifei turned out from behind the door and smiled slightly.
"You are Zhen Sifei!" Xia Houzhong looked up and saw that there were two people next to him, one was Ma Longtan and the other was Sun Baojin. These two people were originally from Hongmakan and were both his old partners. "What do you want?"
"We don't want to do anything, we just want to negotiate a deal with you." Zhen Sifei said.
"You have surrendered to the government. You are all the government's minions. I am at odds with you. What is there to talk about?"
"Xiahou Zhong, you and I have never known each other before. Although there have been frictions between us, each of us has his own master, so that's nothing. If you can wholeheartedly submit to our Commander Zhang, I can help you with your work." I'll give you a kind word in front of the boss and spare your life." Zhen Sifei said.
"You are all the hawks and dogs of the imperial court now. I fell into your hands today and am just going to die. Why bother?" Xia Houzhong said.
"Brother Xiahou, don't be so stubborn and stubborn. We have worked together for many years and we treat you like a brother. It's just because Ren Zhanbiao did too much. He colluded with the Japanese to kill people and set fires, and did all kinds of bad things. He also framed our security team. He even wanted to kill his own savior and master Tang Dalong. Is he still a human being? Sun Baojin and I couldn't stand it anymore, so we turned to the security team. Today, Zhen Si Fei speaking for you is your opportunity to abandon the darkness and turn to the light. I hope you will seriously consider it. If you are stubborn, you will only die." Ma Longtan said.
When Xia Houzhong heard what Ma Longtan said, he lowered his head and said nothing.
"I originally didn't know that Zhen Sifei and the others were from the government. I was still angry with him for letting me trick you into coming here. However, I heard what they said. What they said makes sense. Are you famous there? Makan, first of all, your master, Ren Zhanbiao, has a bad reputation. He colluded with the Japanese and became a lackey of the Japanese. If you follow him, you will only get the reputation of a traitor. Besides, your Hongmakan belongs to the beard and is a government conscript. Targets of suppression, can this be a long-term solution? Sooner or later, you will be wiped out by the government. You might as well take this opportunity to join Camp Commander Zhang and the others, make atonement for your sins, and be able to live an upright and upright life in the future. Isn't that great? Is that so?" At this time, He Dinghong got up from the bed and came over and said, "Although I am a woman, I understand the truth. Could it be that instead of taking the bright road, you want to take the single-plank bridge?"
"It turns out that you are really not sick, and you pretended to be asleep. I am so good to you, why did you lie to me?"
