Ruhua thanked Wumei, and Wumei waved her hand. Wu Mei then asked Ru Hua to go to the back to rest, and told Ru Shi to take good care of Ru Hua.
Although the situation is not good for the restaurant, Wu Mei is not nervous. Ding Gu was about to appear, but was stopped by Wu Mei. Wu Mei knew that Ding Gu's martial arts skills were far inferior to hers. Facing Li Zhen, Ding Gu was not sure of victory.
Wu Mei then stepped forward and said to Li Zhen: "Gang Leader Li, this little girl is not talented. I want to learn from you about your clever tricks. Do you want me to give you a favor?"
Wu Mei knew that no matter what, she could not lose again. She didn't dare to put her hope in Ding Gu. She could only fight in person and maybe there was some chance.
Wu Mei publicly called for battle, and Li Zhen had to accept the challenge even if he didn't want to. Li Zhen is also very confident in his martial arts. He thinks that if Charming is a young girl, her martial arts will naturally not be too strong.
When Li Zhen thought of this, he immediately laughed a few times and said, "I heard from Shopkeeper Gao that the girl is very strong in martial arts. It would be an honor for me to compete with her today. Please help me!"
However, Wu Mei didn't want to take advantage of this. She shook her head and said, "Young ladies are not used to making the first move. Gang Leader Li invites you first!"
Li Zhen was not polite, he jumped up, waved his hand, and the sword struck at Wu Mei very quickly. Wu Mei swung her sword to block it, then cut it back smoothly. When Li Zhen saw Wu Mei's long sword coming, he flipped his wrist and the sword turned to stab Wu Mei in the chest.
The two swords went back and forth, and they exchanged nearly a hundred moves in an instant. Li Zhen became more and more frightened as he fought. It was obvious that Wu Mei's skills exceeded his expectations. Li Zhen thought to himself that Wu Mei was an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl after all, and her internal strength must be limited. He could only win with his deep internal strength.
Li Zhen suddenly swung his sword and struck at Wu Mei. At the same time, he used his internal strength and slapped her with his left palm. Just as Wu Mei blocked Li Zhen's sword, she saw Li Zhen strike with his left palm.
Wu Mei had no time to dodge, so she could only greet him with her palms raised. There was just a "pop" sound, and the two palms were pressed together, and both of them were shocked back five or six steps.
At this moment, a figure was seen flying over and standing between the two of them. Li Zhen and Wu Mei were shocked and quickly looked at Feiyun.
It turns out that Feiyun felt that Li Zhennei was stronger than Wu Mei. If they continued to fight, Wu Mei might lose. But the good time has not come yet. Feiyun cannot let Li Zhen defeat Wu Mei. In that case, the people in the restaurant will have to take orders from the boat gang.
Feiyun couldn't accept this result. In desperation, he could only fly out and stand between the two people to prevent them from continuing the competition.
Feiyun waved the folding fan in his hand and said: "You two, please be patient for a moment. Can you listen to a few words from me?"
When Li Zhen saw a strange young man suddenly standing in front of him, he was naturally furious and immediately shouted angrily: "Who are you? Get out of here!"
At this time Fei Ying shouted from a distance: "Leader Li, he is my friend, Lin Feiyun, the leader of the Three Heroes of Xiaoxiang, Young Hero Lin, you must not be rude!"
Li Zhen couldn't help but be stunned after hearing Fei Ying's shouting. He had naturally heard of the reputation of the Three Heroes of Xiaoxiang, but he didn't expect Lin Feiyun to appear in Nanyang.
Before Feiyun could speak, he heard Gao Wei shout: "Lin, I was just about to seek revenge from you, but I didn't expect you to come to my door!"
As soon as Gao Wei finished speaking, he jumped up and flew straight into the flying clouds. As soon as Feiyun turned around, he saw the high-power steel knife slashing towards him. Feiyun snorted coldly and did not dodge. He waved his folding fan and faced Gao Wei's steel knife.
Just listen to the sound of clang and the collision of knives and fans. Gao Wei's tiger's mouth was shocked to the point of bleeding, and the steel knife fell to the ground. Feiyun has recently taken turns practicing with Liangchen, Meijing and Lian'er. His internal strength has greatly increased, and his Hunyuan internal power and mental skills have reached the seventh level.
Feiyun saw Gao Wei rushing towards him and planned to teach Gao Wei a lesson. When Feiyun swung the folding fan just now, he had already used all his inner strength. Gao Wei was not Feiyun's opponent to begin with, and now he was even more unbeatable. The steel sword was easily knocked out of his hand.
Gao Wei was shocked and stood there blankly. Feiyun said coldly: "Gao, you bully, I have no time to care about you now. I will settle the score with you later. If you don't want to die immediately, get away from me!"
Feiyun immediately turned around and said to Li Zhen: "Gang Leader Li, is this Gao Wei also from your boat gang?"
Although Li Zhen didn't know what the grudge between Feiyun and Gao Wei was, he had already seen that Feiyun's martial arts was far superior to his own. Li Zhen also believed that since Feiyun was Feiying's friend, he could not offend Feiyun.
Li Zhen said quickly: "Young Master Lin, I didn't know Shopkeeper Gao Weigao before. I just recently heard that he was bullied by Yanyu Restaurant, and I just wanted to vent for him."
Gao Wei was naturally disappointed when he saw that Li Zhen not only refused to speak for him, but also deliberately distanced himself from the relationship. Gao Wei originally expected Li Zhen to avenge him, but he didn't expect Li Zhen to be so timid and afraid of getting into trouble. Gao Wei was very angry, but he didn't dare to say anything more.
When Li Zhen saw Fei Ying, Fei Xiang, Zheng Lang and Fei Yun standing together, he knew that if he fell out with Fei Yun and started a fight, even though he was outnumbered, he might not be his opponent.
Li Zhen didn't know the relationship between Feiyun and the restaurant, so he asked: "Young Master Lin, you must also know that we are competing with people from the restaurant. I wonder why you want to stop us?"
Feiyun smiled and said: "You are competing to get the bank, and I am also interested in participating. If I defeat you separately, can I not only get the bank, but also make you two factions obey my orders?"
Li Zhen was stunned, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Since Mr. Lin has such ambition, it is a good thing. If you are interested in joining this gang, I can ask you to serve as the deputy gang leader. As for the bank, you will naturally have one." A portion. What do you think?"
Wu Mei remained silent. She didn't know why Feiyun suddenly intervened, she just wanted to see what Feiyun wanted to do. She was shocked when she heard that Feiyun also wanted a bank, and wanted restaurants and boat gangs to take orders from him.
Wu Mei was anxious, worried that Feiyun could not resist Li Zhen's temptation, and hurriedly said to Feiyun: "Lin Shaoxia, if I had known that you also wanted to get the bank, you could just say so, we
We can join forces! I also invite you to join the restaurant, with the same position as me. "
Feiyun shook his head and told Li Zhen and Wu Mei that he was not interested in following other people's orders, let alone being governed by others. He has no intention of joining any sect unless those sects will obey his orders in the future.
Li Zhen was a little stunned. He calmed down, put on a smile, and said: "Young Master Lin, in this case, I won't force it. It's just that I had an appointment with the restaurant just now, and you heard it. Why don't you step away? On the side, after the matter between me and the restaurant is settled, we can have a good talk. What do you think?"
Charming over there also said: "Young Master Lin, you also know the agreement between Gang Leader Li and I. Please don't interfere in this matter. As for your request, we will find another time to discuss it. What do you think?"
Charming Yang was naturally very unhappy with Feiyun's request. Of course, like Li Zhen, she didn't dare to offend Feiyun. They were all afraid that Feiyun would take the opportunity to join forces with his opponent, and they would be in big trouble.
Seeing both of them showing weakness, Feiyun felt clear in his heart, knowing that they did not dare to face him alone, so he said: "That won't work. If you decide who wins or loses, it will be very detrimental to me! I understand your thoughts, I can't Let you get what you want!"
Li Zhen and Wu Mei were both stunned when they heard this, and asked in unison: "What do you mean?"
Feiyun deliberately delayed the time and wanted to wait until the right time to arrive with the officers and soldiers, so he naturally started talking nonsense. He said: "I just heard you say that the losing party must listen to the winning party's orders, right?"
Li Zhen and Wu Mei responded in unison: "Yes, what does this have to do with you?"
Feiyun smiled and said: "This is of great concern. I find it very interesting, so I also want to join your competition. Fang is willing to compete with both of you separately according to the rules you set. If you win over me, I will Just accept that order. If I win, you will accept my orders from now on!"
At this moment, there was a sudden shout: "Brother, I'm back!" Then a figure fell from the sky and landed beside the three of them. The three people were shocked and turned pale. When they looked closely, they saw a stunning beauty who was as beautiful as a peach blossom and as cold as ice and snow.
When Feiyun saw her, he was immediately overjoyed. He quickly came to her side and said softly: "Second sister, why are you here?" The person who came was none other than Liangchen.
It turned out that after Di Renjie received the memorial from the Wang County Magistrate, he did not dare to neglect and hurriedly entered the palace to meet Wu Zetian. By this time Wu Zetian had returned to Luoyang Palace and the situation had stabilized.
Wu Zetian read Magistrate Wang's memorial and was both happy and angry. I am happy that there is finally news about Feiyun and others, but I am angry that the Nanyang officials are so corrupt and the local bullies are so rampant.
Di Renjie had heard before that the Nanyang Prefect had always acted tyrannically because he was a relative of the emperor. He took the opportunity to suggest to Wu Zetian that she send Zhang Jianzhi as an imperial envoy to Nanyang to handle the matter. At this time, Zhang Jianzhi had just been transferred to the capital by Wu Zetian.
Wu Zetian agreed to Di Renjie's suggestion and immediately ordered Zhang Jianzhi to go to Nanyang to temporarily take over as the prefect and imperial minister, comprehensively rectify Nanyang's officialdom and eliminate local bullies.
Wu Zetian knew that there were many martial arts masters in the world, so she asked Liu Qiong and Jin Ding to protect Zhang Jianzhi's safety. Wu Zetian also sent Wu Yuan to lead a thousand elite soldiers of the Royal Forest Army to go south with Zhang and Cambodia.
Early the next morning, Zhang Jianzhi left the capital and headed south with Liu Qiong, Jin Ding and Wu Yuan's thousand imperial guards. Zhang Jianzhi was worried about something happening in Nanyang, so he traveled all the way under the stars and at night. At dusk yesterday, we arrived at the Nanyang Prefect’s Yamen.
When County Magistrate Wang heard that Master Zhang Jian had come to Nanyang according to the order, he hurriedly led the crowd to welcome him. After Zhang Jianzhi read out the imperial edict, Magistrate Wang learned that Zhang Jianzhi had been appointed to take over as Nanyang's prefect and imperial envoy, taking full charge of Nanyang affairs.
Magistrate Wang immediately reported the details of Liu Feiyun and Governor Wu to Zhang Jianzhi. As for Feiyun and the other three, Wu Zetian had already told Zhang Jianzhi when Zhang Jianzhi left Luoyang.
Zhang Jianzhi immediately ordered Wu Taishou to be placed under house arrest and awaited his punishment. It was late at night after Zhang and Cambodia's party had settled down. Although Liu Qiong and his wife wanted to see Feiyun immediately, they had to hold back for the time being.
When Liangchen arrived at the Yamen, he found out that Zhang Jianzhi had taken over as the prefect. I was so happy that I hurriedly asked to see Zhang Jianzhi. Zhang Jianzhi was greatly surprised when he learned that the good time had come.
