When did the class leader see Qin Shun pay money, he quickly declined and did not dare to accept it. Liangchen took it, handed it to the class leader, and said: "Don't worry, if he wants to take revenge on you in the future, I will find him to settle the score. Qin, I know where your home is very well. I can find you at any time. .”
Qin Shun quickly said: "Don't worry, heroine, I will never dare to do that. I will definitely change my past and stop bullying others." Feiyun said: "I'll spare your life today, get out of here!" Qin Shun quickly said He left in embarrassment with the remaining servants.
The leader of the theater troupe stepped forward and thanked Feiyun, Liangchen and others. Feiyun waved his hand and said, "We just encountered uneven roads. It's just a little effort. Leader, you don't have to be polite."
However, the class leader told Feiyun and others to be careful, as the Qin Prefect would not let them go. He said that he would leave as soon as possible and persuaded Feiyun and others to leave with him. Feiyun smiled slightly and asked the class leader to arrange for someone to bury the servant who was beaten to death. Feiyun then took Duan Qing and four others back to the Hou Mansion.
As soon as the five people entered the hall, they heard Wuyu shouting: "Brother Feiyun, you came just in time. I was just about to ask someone to invite you over!"
But Helanshan said: "Speechless, don't be so impatient. It's better to ask them to sit down and wait for a while to talk slowly." Feiyun and others bowed their hands to Helanshan, then sat down and asked: "Master Marquis, what happened? He Lanshan said: "No rush. You haven't had dinner yet, right? Let's have dinner together and talk about it later." Feiyun and the others had no choice but to do as they pleased.
After finishing the meal, Meili hurriedly asked: "Master Hou, what exactly is it that needs our help?" He Lanshan said: "You are going out today. You already know the people who broke into the government office the night before yesterday. But the bodyguard from the bodyguard bureau the day before yesterday They were robbed, but the government office has no clue!" Feiyun nodded and said, "I heard something about it! Could it be that the Marquis is going to find the murderer?"
Buyu immediately said: "Brother Feiyun, you are really smart, it is true. As for the whole story, I would like to ask the Marquis to tell you." It turns out that early this morning, the Qin Prefect reported the robbery of the escort's silver. Helan Mountain.
Only then did Helan Shan know that this batch of escort money was tax money sent to the capital by the Qin governor. If the court found out, both of them would be in danger. Only by solving the case and catching the murderer can Helanshan retain his official position. After Helanshan came back, he was at a loss and could only discuss the matter with Feiyun.
After hearing this, Liangchen said: "This matter is not easy to trace. I have neither seen the faces of these people, nor any clues. It is difficult to solve the case in a short time. I think it was the corrupt official who pushed you out, okay Let you take the blame." Feiyun said: "This is really difficult to handle. Lord Marquis, you also know that we are new to Jinling City and are not familiar with the place. There is nothing we can do about this matter."
Because Wu Zetian still did not return the throne to Li Tang, Feiyun had no good impressions of the Wu family. Feiyun had great respect for those who broke into the Marquis's mansion at night and robbed money. How could Feiyun agree to Helanshan to arrest them? Feiyun's refusal made Helanshan a little embarrassed and couldn't help but look embarrassed.
Helanshan saw that Feiyun and Buyu were getting along very well recently, and thought that Feiyun had given up his principle of not helping the government. Feiyun's statement was naturally unexpected, which left Helanshan puzzled. Buyu said quickly: "Master Hou, Brother Feiyun and the others came to Jincheng for the first time, and they don't know anything about the people in Jincheng. Naturally, they have no way to track down the murderer. Let's leave this matter to Xu Zhitang and the others. Xu Zhitang is a local after all! "
Buyu knew Feiyun's thoughts, he wanted to keep a distance from the government. Although Feiyun and Buyu had a good friendship and He Lanxue's face was good, it was not enough to make Feiyun change his original intention.
Seeing that Helanshan had hit a wall, Wuyu spoke out to help. Only then did Helan Shan realize that he had acted too hastily. He quickly got off the slope and said, "What you said is absolutely true, but I didn't think of it. Then I'll leave this matter to you." Buyu nodded in agreement. Feiyun knew that Helanshan would be dissatisfied with him and left immediately. Lian'er originally wanted to follow him out, but was persuaded by Feiyun and Buyu together.
Early the next morning, Feiyun, Duan Qing and others finished breakfast and were about to go out. But they saw several people walking outside the inn, and the one leading the way was Qin Shun, the evil young man from yesterday. Feiyun and others thought he was bringing people to take revenge, so they secretly used their strength to prepare to meet the enemy. But Qin Shun came to Feiyun with a bright smile, bowed his hands and said, "Young hero, this is Zhao Ping, the steward of the Prefecture."
Feiyun was confused and asked: "What do you mean?" Qin Shun quickly said: "Brother, don't get me wrong, you don't know something. After I went back yesterday, my father learned about it. My father Then I started to love talents and ordered me to invite you to the government office as a guest."
Feiyun asked in surprise: "Mansion? Which government?" The housekeeper Zhao Ping looked at Feiyun and quickly responded: "Jinling Prefect's Mansion."
Feiyun glanced at the butler and said, "Are you Butler Zhao? We are not related to your prefect. Why did he invite us? If you have any questions, please speak up."
It turns out that Governor Qin became uneasy yesterday when he learned that there was such a master in Jinling City. He was in charge of Jinling, but he didn't have any masters, and he didn't have any elite soldiers or generals under his command. Although there have been a lot of recruits recently, there are only a few who can really take on important responsibilities. I heard that Feiyun and the others are very capable, so I was naturally tempted.
When the prefect was worried, Qin Shun ran in and told him that he had something important to tell him. In order to become the prince, Zhao Xu bribed Qin Hui, a popular figure in front of Zhao Gou, with a large sum of money. Therefore, Qin Hui and several of his confidants were familiar with Zhao Yuan. Zhao Xu then asked Luo Yuan, "What do you want to tell me?" Luo Yuan immediately told in detail what happened to Feihong Feixue yesterday.
Luo Ruji then said: "Your Majesty, that man has great martial arts skills. Why don't we invite him to the palace as a martial arts instructor." Zhao Can asked: "Do you know where they live? Are you willing to accept our invitation?" Luo Yuan said: "After we broke up with them yesterday, we arranged for a servant to follow them and found out that they were staying at the Yuelai Inn. Money can make all the difference. I believe that as long as we offer them generous terms, they will not refuse! Besides, I don't think they will refuse. Not a local, but someone from outside the capital.”
Zhao Quan hesitated for a moment and asked Zhao Ping: "Steward, what do you think?" Zhao Ping said: "I think we can give it a try. If he agrees to help the prince, wouldn't the prince be even more powerful?" Zhao Can nodded and said : "What the steward said is absolutely true. In this case, steward, you will follow Luo Yuan for me tomorrow. I said that the king is going to entertain them, so you invite them to the palace." Zhao Ping and Luo Yuan naturally bowed. Take orders.
After hearing Feihong's question, Zhao Ping hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, saying, "I am Zhao Ping, the steward of Prince Enping's Mansion. I wonder what you call me, young hero?" Feihong saw that the steward was polite, and he also He couldn't lose his etiquette, so he returned the favor and said: "Steward Zhao, you are very polite. I am Luo Feihong! But I am afraid I must disappoint you. I never like to interact with people in the government and court!" Zhao Ping said: "My prince is very thirsty for talents. , also likes to make friends in the world, and has never regarded himself as a prince. Luo Shaoxia, why should you reject him outright? One more friend opens up a new path, doesn't it? "
Feiyun suddenly thought that Zhao Quan was Zhao Yuan's rival. If he were to take away the crown prince's position, who would rehabilitate Marshal Yue Feiyue and Zhao Xue? Feiyun thought of this and winked at Feihong. Feihong didn't understand what Feiyun meant, so he naturally didn't know how to answer. He could only point at Feiyun and said, "You have to ask my elder brother for his consent." When Zhao Ping heard that he was Feihong's elder brother, he hurriedly bowed and saluted. : "It turns out that you two are Luo Shaoxia's eldest brother. I'm blind and ignorant. Please forgive me! I don't know how to call you two?"
Feiyun hurriedly raised his hands and returned the greeting: "Xia Feiyun, this is Young Master Duan Qing. Thank you, Butler Zhao." Zhao Ping said: "My prince always likes to socialize with friends in the world. I wonder if the three of you are willing to go to the palace to meet the prince. ?" Feiyun secretly thought that in this case, why not go with the flow and see what kind of person this Prince Enping is? Feiyun made up his mind and said: "Since the prince has summoned us, we brothers have to be respectful and obey him. I can help the housekeeper to lead the way!" Zhao Ping was overjoyed and said: "Well, the carriage is waiting outside the door. Please get on, three of you." Car." After Zhao Ping finished speaking, he took the lead. Feiyun and three others followed outside the door and got into the carriage.
Feihong and Duan Qing didn't understand what Feiyun meant, so they got on the carriage and asked, "Brother, why did you agree to him? This Zhao Xu is Zhao Yuan's opponent." Feiyun smiled slightly and said, "If you don't enter the tiger's den, It won't hurt if we go and have a look and get to know each other. As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will be victorious in every battle. Wouldn't it be better for us to get to know this prince?" Duan Qing said: "Brother Xia is worried about Absolutely. We can compare these two princes and see who is better and who is worse."
After a while, the carriage arrived at Prince Enping's Mansion. Zhao Ping and Luo Yuan, who were sitting in the carriage in front, got off the carriage and invited Feiyun and the others out. Feiyun and the others looked up and saw a magnificent mansion in front of them. The three of them followed Butler Zhao through the gate and went directly to the palace hall.
There was a person sitting in the hall, but he was dressed in brocade and over thirty years old. He was Zhao Xu, the king of Enping County. As soon as Zhao Quan saw everyone coming in, he stood up to greet them and said: "No wonder the magpies are screaming this morning. It turns out that there are distinguished guests coming to the door. I'm Zhao Quan, I'm a little far away to greet you. Please forgive me and ask everyone to take a seat." Feiyun and the others They bowed their hands and saluted, and said, "Common people pay homage to the prince!" Zhao Xu said, "You're welcome!"
After Feiyun and the others sat down, Zhao Ping introduced the three of them to Zhao Can one by one. Feiyun looked around the hall and saw that this hall was splendid and extremely luxurious. How could Zhao Yuan's palace compare with his? Zhao Xu said unhurriedly: "You three, please have some tea first!" Feiyun asked: "I wonder what happened when the prince called us here?"
Zhao Quan said: "Xia Shaoxia, don't be anxious. It's been a hard journey. Let's sit down for a while and see the dancing skills in my house." Zhao Quan clapped her hands, and eight beauties walked out from behind the screen. When they came to the open space in the middle, they started dancing. Feiyun Feihong was not interested in these things, but Duan Qing was born and raised in the palace after all, so he was naturally familiar with sensual matters.
While enjoying the singing and dancing, Zhao Quan frequently raised her glasses and invited Feiyun and the others. After drinking for three rounds, Zhao Quan said: "I have heard for a long time that these three martial arts masters are very powerful. I wonder if you are willing to submit to my palace? What do you want, money, beauty, or glory and wealth?" Zhao Quan's words naturally made Feiyun feel sick. Feiyun replied coldly: "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty. Our martial arts skills are low and it is difficult for us to hold a big position. Besides, I have no intention of being a high-ranking official and rich in salary. I just want peace and security." Seeing his refusal, Zhao Xu was naturally unhappy.
At this moment, three men in samurai attire came in from outside the door. The three people came to Zhao Xu and said, "I have to pay homage to the prince and ask for your forgiveness!" Zhao Xu said, "Everyone, you are welcome. We still need to discuss things." The three people asked, "Your Majesty, what is this? Who are these people?" Zhao Quan said hurriedly: "Oh, I forgot to introduce you. These three are famous masters in the world. Among them, the tall man is named Xia Feiyun, Shao Xia Xia, the other is Shao Xia Luo Feihong, and the other is Shao Xia Luo Feihong. It’s Young Master Duan Qing.”
Zhao Quan said to Feiyun again: "These three are my bodyguards Sun Yan, Lin Sheng, and Guan Rong. They were originally doing chivalry and righteousness in various places. Later, by mistake, they all joined my bodyguard. Before Feiyun and the others could reply, they heard someone say: "So it's you!" Feiyun looked up and saw that it was Sun Yan, the leader in black who attacked Pu'an County Prince's Mansion that day.
Feiyun secretly complained in her heart, but at this moment, she could only take a gamble and said: "Your Excellency T has a good memory. You can remember it so clearly even if it happened in a hurry." Zhao Quan asked in surprise: "How can you guys remember it so clearly?" Do you know him?" Sun Yan said: "Your Majesty, this person is the person we met at Prince Enping's Mansion. If he hadn't stopped us at that time, we would have completed our mission long ago!"
When Zhao Xu heard this, her face darkened and she asked, "Xia Shaoxia, do you know Zhao Yuan?" Feiyun said, "Yes, I just met her recently. We were guests at Pu'an Palace that day when we heard something moving and came out. Check it out. I just happened to meet this Sun Yan, who was about to hurt two little girls. I wanted to save a life, which is better than building a seven-level pagoda. So I stopped him! I fought with this dear friend. "
Zhao Ping asked: "Then why don't you live in the palace? Instead, you live outside." Feihong said: "We have only met Zhao Yuan a few times, so naturally it is inconvenient to live in the palace for a long time." Zhao Can asked again: "I must be Zhao Yuan. Yuan also invited you to join her guard." Feixue said, "Yes, but my brother refused outright."
Zhao Xu asked: "You are highly skilled in martial arts. You must have spent a lot of effort and energy. Since you have learned martial arts, you should sell them to the emperor's family. Why did you refuse?" Feiyun said: "My lord, I just told you , We don’t want to associate with the government. We just want to be ordinary people and live a simple life. We are really not interested in fame and wealth!"
