Chapter 25

Li Zhenli, Li Xiangjun and the other women met and hid their faces and laughed at Zhou Yuantong. Everyone watched Zhou Yuantong eating by himself, and the scene was a little awkward for a while.

In order not to let the scene become cold, Zhu Cihong picked up the chopsticks and started eating, saying, "Everyone eat, it would be a pity not to enjoy such delicious food while it is hot."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhenli and his daughters all moved their chopsticks and ate a few mouthfuls.

Just when Li Zhenli felt that the banquet was too boring and boring, and wanted to persuade everyone to drink and have fun, she suddenly heard the servant downstairs saying that Master Chen is here and wants to see Mr. Xiang.

Mr. Chen is not a big man, but a landlord in Huainan. In order to avoid the possible war and the bullying of the local warlords, he came to live in Jinling.

The rich man like him doesn't know what Ya is, he only knows that having silver in his hand can make ghosts turn the mill, so no matter what happens, he will settle everything with silver.

On the contrary, it happened to be like Li Zhenli, an old bustard with an eye for money. One likes to spend money, and the other likes to collect money. Master Chen has only been here a few times in Meixianglou, and Li Zhenli seems to be friends with him.

Hearing that it was Mr. Chen coming, Li Zhenli said to Zhu Cihong, "A friend is here, I'll go down first." Then she turned around and hurried downstairs, and came to the yard to open the door for Mr. Chen.

Mr. Chen is a rich man, so he usually hugs each other when he travels, but tonight he came to a place like Meixianglou, so he only brought a long entourage and a butler.

The butler had already been here with Master Chen, and as soon as he saw Li Zhenli, he took out a small piece of silver from his sleeve and gave it to her as opening money.

"The moonlight is just right tonight. I don't think I have anything to do, so I will come to you for a drink and meet your stunning daughters." Although Master Chen said so, he didn't know when he touched her. Li Zhenli's slippery little hands.

Although Li Zhenli was disgusted by the appearance of this old master Chen, but for the sake of money, she couldn't say anything, so she pushed him away and said, "I have guests here, and they are talking to them upstairs, how about Come back tomorrow."

When Mr. Chen heard that someone was already upstairs, he was very angry. He didn't expect that someone would dare to get there first and compete with him for the place.

He had lived in the countryside for a long time and had no idea how high the sky was or how thick the earth was. When he felt confused, he pushed Li Zhenli away and said, "I can't leave after I come here today. I want to see that boy dare to take space from me." "

After finishing speaking, Master Chen went upstairs on his own. Since he has been here several times, he knows how to get here.

As soon as he saw Zhu Cixi and Zhou Yuan sitting at the round table in the hall, he laughed loudly and said, "Just such a sloppy guy, a pretty boy, girl Zhenli, how come you let in all kinds of people, cats and dogs?"

Zhang Chao heard that this toad-like, colorfully dressed local rich man in front of him dared to say that about Zhu Cihong, so he wanted to draw his sword and bleed him to make him remember.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Cihong held him down, and his hand on the handle was also taken away by Zhu Cihong.

"There are women here. It's not good to use swords or guns. Liu Bao, please persuade him to go down and solve the problem." After saying that, Zhu Cixi opened the plain fan with the word "Zhu" written on it and covered his face. appearance.

So Liu Bao went to Mr. Chen's side, and said to him with a smile, "My lord, everyone is a dignified figure. It's not good to quarrel here. Why don't we go out and find a place to talk."

The person who thought Master Chen would stretch out his hand and hit the smiling face, pushed Liu Bao away and said, "Master, I am a person of status, but I have bought non-members. You are a Taoist priest like a beggar, a little boy, what status do you have?"

When Li Zhenli saw it, she felt that Zhu Cihong, a young man, might not be able to deal with Mr. Chen, so she went over to persuade him, "Young master, why don't you let him go first, Mr. Chen made an appointment with me before, let's chat and drink tea another day It's not too late."

Zhu Cihong felt annoyed and amused when he heard this. The bustard probably has nothing on his mind except money, he thought to himself.

"No." He only said one word, but it seemed to have the power of a thousand words.

Just when Li Zhenli was in trouble, there was another loud noise from downstairs, and when she wanted to go downstairs to see what was going on, an officer in police uniform with an oxtail knife on her waist suddenly came up , if the maid beside her hadn't pulled her, she would have almost bumped into her.

After he came up, three or four catchers and archers came up one after another immediately behind him.

"Damn it, he even dared to beat my people. As for people, you two pointed out that I will send him to the prison tonight."

At this time, Li Zhenli listened to the voice and looked at the appearance, only to realize that it was another acquaintance, Wang Dachong, the head of the prefect's yamen in Jinling.

Unexpectedly, he would come here. Li Zhenli really didn't know that she had such bad luck today that she encountered such an embarrassing situation.

After Wang Dachong finished speaking, the two archers, one fat and one thin, came out, pointed at Zhang Chao and said, "Brother, this is the boy, you see he still has a knife on him, he must be the villain who came to the city to commit murder, let's hurry up!" Take him and put him in jail."

After finishing speaking, the fat archer added, "I don't think those around him are good people, so let's take them away too."

The two shooters thought to themselves, as long as they were caught in the prison, they would not be able to do anything about it. Under the torture to extract a confession, even a tough man could not bear it.

At that time, if you say that you are rebellious, then you are rebellious, even if you are accused of assassinating King Fu and the prince, you have to admit it honestly.

But they didn't expect that the person sitting in front of them was the prince, and they still wanted to frame the crime of assassinating the prince, which is really ridiculous.

Wang Dachong didn't think too much. As long as he didn't meet an official, he could almost walk sideways in Jinling City.

"Catch!" Wang Dachong waved his big hand, ordering his subordinates to come and arrest him.

During the daytime today, he was stripped naked by the Prince's people, but he lost all his face, but this face is destined to be lost, so he just came out to vent his anger, otherwise, he would just stand up for his subordinates like this There was no need for him to come in person.

When Li Zhenli heard that Wang Dashong wanted to arrest her guests, she quickly tried to dissuade them, "Brother Wang, they are all my guests. Is there any serious crime worthy of your arrest?"

"If it's not for my sake, let's forget about it, and treat you to a cup of tea later, wouldn't it be better than arresting people after working hard for a long time?"

Wang Dachong ignored Li Zhenli's words, but for the sake of caution, Wang Dachong still took a look at the people the two archers recognized, it would be bad if he knew them.
