Tear!
The cooks laughed ferociously, tearing off their shirts and lifting off their aprons one after another.
In an instant, a dozen cooks who had been eating all the fireworks in the back kitchen of Xiangmanlou all year round transformed into killing machines with hand-held weapons. Drops of sweat condensed into beads on the rock-hard muscles, glowing with a light bronze color. .
Some of them were carrying benches, some were grabbing shovels, some were snapping the fire sticks into two pieces and attacking with two sticks, and some were swinging rolling pins to greet the barbarian in the face. A good group fight turned out to be a battle for a group of muscular chefs to fight for the ranking of weapons.
Boom, boom, boom!
After Zhizhi provided the cooks with a "venue" advantage, he did not continue to take action. Instead, he brought a plate of oil-soaked peanuts from the back of the counter, placed it in front of the Red King, then walked behind the Red King and kneaded Zheng obediently. The strength of Xiu's shoulders is neither light nor heavy, just right.
"Master~" Zhizhi called out softly, with pink lips, flushed face, and watery brows. He bit his lower lip gently and asked: "Look, our thaumaturgy has made great progress. How about... go back and do more Practice?”
"Are we going to start asking for rewards now?"
Zheng Xiu was chewing peanuts while watching the show, rolled his eyes and asked. Watching a dozen tough men beating up barbarians, the scene was so enjoyable that the inexplicable anger in Zheng Xiu's heart disappeared a lot.
"Then..." Zhizhi knew that the master had always been dissatisfied with his moral integrity, so he did not press ahead. Instead, he changed the subject: "Master, look, Sister Fengbei has always been lonely, alone, without any relatives. Next year on August 8 When you get married, you can't let her get married alone."
Now "sister" was called.
Zheng Xiu thought for a while and nodded: "That's the truth."
Zhizhi's eyes lit up: "Then... the maid who will do the wedding..."
When Zheng Xiu heard it, he understood and couldn't laugh or cry. It turned out that this was her idea.
Just when the master and the servant were about to discuss further on the issue of "Would it be a little too much to marry four maids?", there was a deafening roar and a strange feeling of heart palpitations that made the two of them breathless. They shouted at the same place. Looking over, I saw a strong bloody light rushing away from the cooks. The bloody light was like mist, transforming into the shape of a wolf's head, draped over the barbarian like a piece of armor.
Several cooks opened their mouths and spat out a mouthful of blood, which flew out.
The man's eyes were about to burst, and his murderous intent was fierce.
Zhizhi pursed his lips, took out the lost violin and played with it a few more times. The barbarian who had just burst out with his amazing thaumaturgy suddenly encountered a waterloo as soon as he took a step and hit another wall.
Zheng Xiu shouted over there: "Don't be afraid, it's all considered a work-related injury, and you'll be paid ten times your wages today!"
For a moment, the other cooks' eyes flashed coldly, and someone pulled out a butcher's knife.
Chef He, who had been watching with cold eyes, finally made a move. When he heard that the salary was ten times the wages, it was very lethal, and he kicked out. The barbarian's chest collapsed, blood spurted from his mouth, and he screamed. Chef He kicked harder and harder, shouting slogans while making moves:
"You're a barbarian, aren't you? Watch your moves! Tender meat!"
"Dogs bark, right? Pig cheeks!"
"Wolf head, right? Loin meat!"
"Breast meat!"
"Tenderloin!"
"Cock meat!"
In the dazzling and almost suffocating kicks, Barbarian's voice became weaker and weaker.
Finally, Chef He jumped up high and stepped down.
A terrifying heat wave blew away the tables and chairs in the building.
Heat wave?
Zheng Xiu's eyes narrowed, and there was a smell of barbecue coming from Manzi's body in the corner. Chef He didn't know how, but he kicked out the heat. It can be seen that the path he took is related to "fire", and he is worthy of being the number one chef of the Zheng family.
"Big stew pot!"
Phew~
After making this random stew, Chef He was so hearty that he picked up his apron and put it on. He looked at the shapeless barbarian in the corner with regret and sighed: "It's been too long since I've done anything. I'm rusty." ah."
Qing Shisan, who had been smoking on the side without taking any action, silently put out the cigarette and praised: "Hey, your kicking skills are still as majestic as before."
Chef He grinned when he heard this, touched his head, and smiled honestly: "What the hell! He's old! He's no longer useful, he's just an ordinary cook!"
The barbarians who came to cause trouble were almost repaired, and even if they survived, they would be useless. Qing Shisan walked up silently and asked in a low voice: "Master, do you want...?"
Zheng Xiu thought for a moment and shook his head in silence.
Qing Shisan regretfully hid the hidden sword back in his sleeve.
He originally wanted to pick up some people and gain some experience.
But Qing Shisan also knew in his heart that beating someone to death could not really kill someone. Now that Zheng Xiu has become the prince, he can act arrogantly and domineeringly, but he cannot be unscrupulous.
"Then, what to do with this half-dead barbarian?"
Zheng Xiu frowned and wondered: "Barbarian? How do you know he is Barbarian?"
Qing Shisan's eyes widened and he was speechless.
Zheng Xiu squinted his eyes: "Did he say it? He didn't say it. Who understood it? Did you understand it?"
Qing Shisan shook his head.
Zheng Xiu asked Zhizhi again: "Do you understand what he said?"
Zhizhi suppressed laughter and shook his head vigorously, very cooperatively.
"Isn't that the end of it? Go report it to the official, saying that a babbling lunatic destroyed my property. I happened to be passing by. Xiaobu Road of the Disaster Prevention Bureau saw the injustice and drew his sword to help. He went on duty by the way, captured the key criminal, and stole the goods on the spot. and was transferred to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for further conviction.”
Qing Shisan understood it completely. He glanced at the crooked "person" and felt a little more pity. He actually wanted to say that before handing over to the Ministry of Punishment, he might have to ask Situ Yong for a little repair, otherwise he wouldn't recognize it. Find out who this is.
Soon Qing Shisan blew a few whistles and someone went to report to the official. Chef He, who felt very refreshed, went to cook a few dishes of his specialty dishes, rearranged the table and chairs, and asked Chi Wang and others to eat while waiting for the people from the Yamen to come again.
Poor Guo Zifei had just returned to the Yamen and heard someone calling the police again. When he asked if it was still the case, it was still the previous case. He was dumbfounded and his hat fell to the ground. It was messy in the wind at the door of the Yamen. He didn't know what to do for a moment. What to do.
Zhizhi thoughtfully wrapped the stir-fried pork in vegetable leaves and rolled it into a chewy shape. He blew the slices to cool them and then put them into Chi Wang's mouth obediently.
Recently, Zhizhi heard that there is also a way to feed each other with mouths. Unfortunately, nowadays, there are too many people to use it, which makes Zhizhi feel very regretful.
"Their thaumaturgy is a bit weird. If it weren't for Zhizhi, it wouldn't be easy to survive."
What Qing Shisan said was that it was not easy to "keep him alive", not that it was not easy to "kill him".
Sometimes when a fight breaks out, it's harder to keep someone alive than to kill someone.
With nothing to do, Qing Shisan chatted with Zheng Xiu about the miraculous magic that Barbarian had used but had no chance to fully use. The bloody wolf head and murderous intent made him curious in his heart and couldn't help but discuss: "Shu Qing's eyesight is clumsy, look at it. I don’t know what path he took.”
Zheng Xiu thought for a moment and shook his head.
Zhizhi held his chin: "Could it be... a divine witch?"
I witnessed the incident with Fairy Girl with my own eyes. When I am indecisive, [Shen Tiao Witch], and when I encounter weird and fancy miraculous magic, it is almost impossible to go wrong by relying on [Shen Tiao Witch].
Zheng Xiu couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Luring the wolf into the house? No, luring the wolf into the body?"
The cooks who were eating together also burst into laughter. But Zheng Xiu and Qing Shisan, who were smiling and laughing, gradually stopped laughing and looked at each other. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it was really possible.
The food on the table was quickly cleared, and the cooks were all hungry after a fight. At this time, several whistles came from outside the building. Qing Shisan and Zheng Xiu looked at each other, and Zheng Xiu was happy: "The people from the Yamen didn't wait, but the people from the Ministry of Etiquette came."
As soon as he finished speaking, several old men wearing splendid official robes hurriedly entered. The leader was the powerful Dou Jiuyi, the Minister of Rites.
"Dou Jiuyi meets the Red King!"
When Dou Jiuyi entered, he was shocked when he saw the people in the room eating and drinking as if nothing happened. His face changed slightly and he was shocked. Are you starting to eat now? But he still immediately put on a polite but embarrassing smile, paid homage to the prince, and returned to the banquet. When meeting the prince, he had to show his face first before getting down to business.
This is trouble. Dou Jiuyi murmured in her heart that no one in the court knew that King Chi was in charge of the disaster prevention bureau and had countless strange people under his command. He could be called the number one person under the emperor. Even the second prince who used to always trouble the Zheng family has now shrunk his head into a quail. Don't dare to provoke the red king who is in the sky.
Not long ago, the case of Xiaoyaofang shocked Dou Jiuyi into a cold sweat. She was afraid that the damn Master Dao would stupidly shout to Chi Wang "There is someone behind me" before he died and drag him into the water. Prince Chi’s Mansion gave him a small gift to express his apology.
Nowadays, no one wants to be associated with the Red King of the Disaster Prevention Bureau, including Dou Jiuyi.
Dou Jiuyi stepped forward to check in person. The moment he saw Manzi's miserable condition, he couldn't help but take a sharp breath of cold air. The cold air was also mixed with an alluring aroma of vegetables. After being frozen for a while in fear, Dou Jiuyi used trembling hands to check Manzi's breathing. He was still breathing, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as people are alive.
He can still explain.
Standing up, Dou Jiuyi smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, to be honest, you... are making things difficult for me."
Zheng Xiu glanced at Dou Jiuyi, and Qing Shisan secretly said something in Zheng Xiu's ear. Zheng Xiu's face showed realization: "It turns out that the black jade paperweight was given by you."
Dou Jiuyi was smiling bitterly one second, and the next second she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes: "Your Majesty, do you like it?"
Zheng Xiu chuckled: "I heard that my cat used it to press cat litter. No wonder it said a while ago that it was particularly enjoyable to pull."
ah?
Cat?
push lightly? ?
Pressing cat litter? ? ?
Dou Jiuyi looked confused when he heard this, but soon, he put away his confused expression and answered bravely: "As long as the prince...'s cat likes it, it's fine. But this matter now..." Dou Jiuyi looked at it again. Glancing at the corner, he gritted his teeth: "Although this matter is a bit difficult for Wei Chen, as long as the person is alive, there is still room for change. Strange to say, the envoys of the Northern Kingdom, Wei Chen, have all been properly placed and ordered to be guarded day and night, lest they go out without permission. , causing trouble at the feet of the Emperor, none of us can afford it at that time. Once a big trouble occurs, it will be a big trouble! This man is said to be a fierce general under the Wolf King, why was he beaten alive..."
Dou Jiuyi paused for a moment, glanced at Zheng Xiu secretly, coughed twice, shut up quickly, and changed her words: "Why didn't you pay attention and ran out?"
As Zheng Xiuyi walked out, he heard Dou Jiuyi say that this was a fierce general under the command of the Wolf King. He paused and his expression changed.
Dou Jiuyi didn't know how Zheng Xiu's thoughts had changed, but he still said to himself: "Yes, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty for becoming the Prince Consort. Now that Your Majesty has become the Prince Consort, your future interactions with the Northern Barbarian countries will all depend on you." Your Majesty is involved in it, it is a first-class matter! Your Majesty, you don’t know, the reason why the Holy One asked us, the Ministry of Rites, to take care of these barbarians is because the status of the barbarians who came to Da Gan as envoys is not simple. "
"That princess is not the little princess of a remote northern barbarian clan, but the daughter of their wolf king. She is equivalent to the status of our Daqian eldest princess. It can be seen that this time..."
"Shh!"
Qing Shisan suddenly appeared behind Dou Jiuyi and covered Dou Jiuyi's mouth.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little weird.
Zheng Xiu stopped, and the space behind him showed strangely distorted light and shadow.
Following Dou Jiuyi inside, several elderly civil servants suddenly felt dizzy, opened their mouths and suddenly fell to the ground, vomiting yellow bile all over the floor.
"Master Dou."
Zheng Xiu's voice was vague and uncertain, as light as if he was in the sky, but the person was right in front of him.
His voice sounded calm.
But Qing Shisan, who was familiar with Zheng Xiu, sighed softly and let go of Dou Jiuyi's mouth.
Zheng Xiu asked: "The Wolf King you are talking about is the one who personally led the army into Daqian twenty years ago and was finally driven out of the pass...that one?"
Dou Jiuyi suddenly broke out in a heavy cold sweat on his forehead.
It's over.
Dou Jiuyi thought to herself, her legs became weak. Because Zheng Xiu became the consort so smoothly, the matter was settled in the blink of an eye, which made Dou Jiuyi and other civil servants in the court seem to have overlooked one thing.
In other words, over the past twenty years, they gradually forgot one thing.
Today's Prince Zheng, Zheng Xiu, is the son of Zheng Haoran who died in the northern wilderness twenty years ago!
Dou Jiuyi's pupils shrank sharply, why didn't anyone think of this?
Why did the emperor choose Zheng Xiu to be his consort?
The daughter of the Wolf King, the princess of the North Kingdom who will now become "Mrs. Zheng", is the daughter of Zheng Xiu's father-killing enemy!
Dou Jiuyi screamed in his heart, he couldn't help but think of a similar plot in Ximen Bei's book. Seeing this kind of plot in the book made people's blood boil and their eyes watery, but when this kind of thing was really in front of him, how could he listen to it? ...How bloody is it?
Dou Jiuyi's mood at this moment was as if someone had coldly poured a basin of hot dog blood on her face.
Zheng Xiu stepped forward with a smile, patted Dou Jiuyi on the shoulder, and asked word by word: "Master Dou, what do you think?"
thump!
Dou Jiuyi sat down on the ground, her eyes darkened, nodded, and said: "Yes...yes..."
"So that's it." Zheng Xiu put his hand to support his chin, his eyes seemed to be shining: "No wonder it seemed like he was coming for me at first. It turns out that he was coming for me. Hehe, hehehe, hehehehe... …”
Zheng Xiu muttered to himself, a strange laugh coming from his throat.
"Master Dou, don't be nervous, please get up."
Zheng Xiu helped Dou Jiuyi up and said, "Today's incident has put Sir Dou in a difficult situation. It seems quite difficult, right?"
Dou Jiuyi nodded blankly. It's quite difficult.
Beside, the smoke was thick, and Qing Shisan's figure was shaking. After the afterimage, he picked up a kitchen rag from somewhere and wiped his hidden sword.
The rag was covered in blood.
"Walk."
Zheng Xiu walked out with his hands behind his back, leaving behind a message: "If it's difficult to do, don't do it."
Dou Jiuyi stared blankly at Zheng Xiu and his entourage leaving. The Xiangman Building was in a mess. He didn't understand the meaning of this sentence at first. It wasn't until he re-examined the seriously injured Manzi and wanted to carry him away that he was shocked to find a blood hole on Manzi's neck.
It seems that he has been dead for a long time.
I have a migraine, 4,000 words have passed by, please forgive me.
