[Lu Xiaofeng] Hidden Forest of Flowers and Leaves

Liang Jing'an said: "It seems that the seventh son is not a bosom friend."

Hua Manlou said: "Why don't you discuss your plan with my elder brother? I'm still a child, so I know very little."

Liang Jing'an said: "Your eldest brother is too shrewd, he will not agree to such a risky approach."

Hua Manlou felt that Liang Jing'an hadn't told the truth.He couldn't believe that Liang Jing'an had worked so hard to use so many experts to tie him up just to have a talk with him!And his plan is indeed a bit ridiculous, more like a castle in the sky.

Liang Jing'an really didn't invite Hua Manlou to chat.He kidnapped Huamanlou for a purer purpose: ransom.At this time, Huamanlou didn't know that Duan Pingwang asked the entire Hua family for half of the land lease and 7000 taels of gold.

That's an insane number by any measure.But for Huajia, family members are always the most important.If they didn't need to consider anything else, they would naturally be willing to spend so much money in exchange for Qitong's safety.However, the title deed not only represents the land, but also the people who live on the land.How can they easily send these people into the tiger's mouth?

But Liang Jingan was very confident.This kind of self-confidence makes him look like an aristocrat, as if life and death are all in his own hands.

Liang Jing'an asked, "Can the Seventh Young Master know how to play chess?"

Hua Manlou was hungry and tired at the moment, and his whole body was groggy, but he still managed to gather his energy and said, "I learned a little bit from my brothers."

"It's still early, why don't we talk about it?"

Hua Manlou nodded.He can only accompany.

However, he didn't know that today was Liang Jing'an's deadline for the Hua family.

Du Le followed the carriage from a distance, and when the carriage stopped, the big man carried Huamanlou into the yard.The gate was closed immediately.Du Le was anxious, looked around, and saw a big locust tree not far away.Usually, it is not difficult to climb such a tree, but in this snowy day, the tree is covered with snow, and even the trunk is twice as thick as usual. How can it be so easy to climb?

Du Le scratched his ears anxiously, but at this moment, he saw a group of strange people running on the street.The first one was a six or seven-year-old child, riding on a huge black dog, followed by two horses, one of them was riding together, the other was a young man dressed in fine clothes, with a faint smile between his brows. burnout.

This group of people actually stopped in front of Du Le.Du Le was most afraid of dogs in his life. When he saw the black dog sticking its tongue out at him, he was so frightened that he hid behind the locust tree.

The child riding on the dog gave Du Le a sympathetic look, stroked the black dog's fur and said, "Xiao Hei doesn't bite people."

Just as if it wanted to fight against the child, the dog fell to the ground and whimpered, acting as if it was rushing.

It was a whistle coming from the horse's back, and the dog became obedient immediately after hearing the whistle.The whistler was an eleven or twelve-year-old boy. He glanced at Du Le and asked, "Has Hua Manlou entered here?"

Du Le nodded hesitantly, and said, "Who are you?"

The man riding with the boy smiled and said, "Don't worry, we are here to save him."

After finishing speaking, several people got off their horses and walked straight towards the yard.

They didn't even knock on the door, and the young man with a tired expression leaped lightly and flew into the yard.The boy took out a long whip from his waist, wrapped the whip around the top of the wall, and followed suit.Instead, the handsome and lovely young man was waiting outside the door with the child riding on the dog.

The door opened and the two rushed in.Du Le hesitated for a while, then hurriedly followed.

He peeked in from the door, and saw a few girls in green clothes lying on the ground, and they all held weapons in their hands.Du Le tiptoed into the yard. Of course he couldn't hear the constant fighting coming from the back of the yard, so he sneaked into the back of the yard like a thief.

Gradually, he became more courageous.Because wherever they passed, those girls in green clothes holding long swords all fell to the ground, or stood motionless.

Du Le finally reached the innermost place, and saw those strange people standing under the open pavilion.When he walked over, he saw Hua Manlou sitting on a chair with his hands and feet bound by iron chains.The iron chain protruded from the chair and was integrated with the chair.Upon closer inspection, I found that the chair was also made of iron.

Behind Hua Manlou, a young man in a golden crown and fine attire held a long sword in his hand, and put it on Hua Manlou's neck.

With a serious look on his face, he said, "Hua Wujuan, I didn't expect you to find this place."

Hua Wujuan looked at him with inexplicable fatigue in his eyes, and said, "I couldn't find it here. But you shouldn't have killed Jiang Chunsheng."

Liang Jing'an snorted coldly: "What's the use of keeping such a traitor? I acted for Huafu, you should thank me!"

Hua Wujuan said: "He should be killed, but you should not be the one to kill him."

Liang Jing'an: "This person betrayed his master and killed his best friend for the sake of a woman. Do you still speak for him?"

Hua Wujuan shook his head.

Liang Jing'an said: "However, I never thought that he would still harm me when he was dying."

"He is dying of remorse."

Liang Jingan's smile was a little mocking.

"Stop it." Hua Wujuan said.

Liang Jing'an sent the sword to Huamanlou's neck, and said, "Hua Wujuan, do you know what I hate about you the most? It's your fake Taoism! If it wasn't for you last time, I would definitely sell one of my "Orchid Pavilion Preface" Good price, but what a pity, you ruined it."

Hua Wujuan said: "You used my words to make fakes, you worked hard to lay out the layout, and you didn't hesitate to die. The purpose was just to make the "Lanting Preface" look real. If Nangong Bo invited me to appreciate it that day, how would I have thought of it? all of these?"

Liang Jing'an said: "Since you have seen through it, why didn't you come to confront me?"

Hua Wujuan's eyes are very sad.After a while, he said, "Because at that time, we were still friends." Sometimes a friend takes advantage of a friend, but the person being used doesn't want to confront him.Because he always believes that friends have their own reasons for doing this, and he will definitely accept this reason.

Or, he was just worried that if they confronted each other, would their friendship be broken?Has everything in the past become false?

Liang Jing'an laughed loudly: "Friend? Not bad! You don't know how happy I am to have you Hua Wujuan as my friend!"

However, it also became more and more painful.Because he would always hear two people being compared, and every time at this time, Hua Wujuan's name would always overwhelm Liang Jing'an!In fact, in Jianghu, the sons of the Hua family are all famous, but Liang Jing'an is still unknown.

But that doesn't matter, Liang Jing said with peace of mind, this is the result of his own choice.Some people like to be famous all over the world, some people like to hide and be behind the scenes, and control everything, right?Besides, Hua Wujuan still regards him as a friend!

Hua Wuyi didn't speak.

Liang Jing'an said: "If it wasn't for your friend blocking my way of making money, I wouldn't have taken this trick easily. It was a seamless plan, but unfortunately, it was all broken by you. Therefore, what I lost, I had to find it from you."

Hua Liutong snorted coldly: "Second brother, why are you talking so much nonsense with him?"

Liang Jing'an laughed: "That's right! We really don't need to talk nonsense anymore! I wonder if Playboy can afford the price for this product?"

He was referring to Huamanlou.And Hua Wujuan also knew that no matter how fast the move was, it couldn't stop the sword that Liang Jingan placed on Huamanlou's shoulder.

At this time, a person came out from behind the house.The figure was like a small tower, but its footsteps were very light, and there was no sound at all.This person is Liang Nanshan.Suddenly a person rushed out from the side, hugged Liang Nanshan Road, and said: "You are finally back!"

Liang Nanshan frowned and looked at the scene in front of him, pulled Hegu's arm away, and walked straight towards Liang Jing'an.

Liang Jing'an said coldly, "You finally know you're back?"

Liang Nanshan bowed down and accepted the blame: "The subordinates are not good at work, and they were followed halfway, and it took a long time to get rid of them."

Liang Jing'an said: "Forget it, even if you get rid of it, this side has already come to your door."

But Gu He was very angry, she walked over and said, "Brother Nan, why do you listen to him like this? Don't forget that he is just your nephew!"

Liang Nanshan's face became ugly.

He Gu said again: "Your person has changed! You were not like this before!"

Liang Nanshan whispered: "Don't do this."

He Gu said: "I really can't think of it, even if you didn't want to forgive me when the child was gone, how could you become so imposing and obey others?"

Liang Nanshan said: "Now is not the time to talk about this!"

The two were arguing endlessly, but Liang Jing'an looked calm and relaxed, and seemed to be enjoying the dispute between the two.Liang Nanshan bowed to him and said, "Hegu grew up in the hometown of Jinling, and she doesn't know the rules. Please don't be angry, young master."

Liang Jing'an said, "I'm not angry."

Aunt He said angrily: "Liang Jing'an, who are you? How dare you boss your uncle around? Hmph, I, Aunt He, don't look like his pustule!"

Liang Jing'an suddenly frowned, his wrist suddenly felt weak, and he couldn't even hold the sword.Liu Tong's whip rolled towards Liang Jing'an's wrist, and at the same time, Hua Wujuan's long sword flashed coldly, and rushed towards Liang Jing'an's brow.

He Gu sneered: "Who told you not to let me let Brother Nan go? I'll let you know how great it is!"

It turned out that Gu He put Huamanlou in the ruined temple first to negotiate a deal with Liang Jingan.She asked Liang Jingan to set Liang Nanshan free, and she told the location of Huamanlou.Liang Jing'an was unwilling, but how did He Gu know that Liang Nanshan's people were everywhere in that ruined temple?What's more, Hua Manlou went to see "Yan Luo in Tsing Yi" for medical treatment!Yan Luo in Tsing Yi knew at a glance that Hua Man Lou was Yi Rong, and immediately sent someone to notify Liang Nanshan, and only then did the next thing happen.

When Aunt He saw that Liang Jing'an had found Huamanlou without any difficulty, she thought that people were not as good as heaven.But she had already poisoned Liang Jingan when she saw him, and Liang Jingan didn't notice it at all.

At this moment, Liang Jing'an suddenly felt as if countless ants were gnawing on his body, and he was in great pain, but he still gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.

There was a bright red bloodstain on the wrist by Liutong's whip, and the long sword fell to the ground.Hua Wujuan was greeted by Liang Nanshan. Liang Nanshan parried Hua Wujuan with one hand and pushed Liang Jing'an with the other.

Seeing this, He Gu stamped her feet, but there was nothing she could do.Seeing Liang Jing'an sitting on the ground, gritting his teeth and enduring the pain, he walked over and made a mockery.But no matter what she said, Liang Jing'an just begged for mercy and didn't reveal it.

Aunt He became more and more interested, and when she was about to increase the dose, she suddenly heard Liang Jing'an say, "I know where your child is."

Aunt He was startled, but immediately became crazy again, grabbed him and asked, "Where is my child?"

"Give me the antidote first!"

"Are you lying to me?"

Liang Jing'an said, "Your child, do you have a red mole on your left chest?"

Aunt He was stunned. This is something that very few people know about. Did Liang Nanshan tell him?

Just as Aunt He was about to ask, Liang Jingan said, "I'll take you to find him right away. Are you willing to bet?"

Of course He Gu is willing to gamble.She was about to feed Liang Jing'an the antidote, but saw Hua Kai stabbing in with a sword.Aunt He was very upset, she waved the medicine powder in her hand, grabbed Liang Jing'an and backed away.

Hua Wujuan fought with Liang Nanshan. In terms of internal strength, he was not as good as Liang Nanshan. Sure enough, Liang Nanshan forced him to push his long sword away with a few strokes of thunder.Liang Nanshan stepped forward and was about to grab the iron chair tied with Huamanlou.Suddenly a group of people poured in from outside, each holding brooms and sticks in their hands, shouting: "Who is going to bully Engong?"

These people are all the people Liang Jingan gave to arrange their lives. They regard Liang Jingan as a benefactor, and they will not flinch even in the face of Liu Tong's long whip.Although Liutong looks very indifferent, he is definitely not a person who kills ordinary people.

As the situation became more and more chaotic, Han Yexin and Du Le lifted one side of the iron chair and moved Huamanlou out of the way.But there are more and more refugees, and it is impossible for them to move an inch.And Hua Wujuan will soon be unable to stop Liang Nanshan.

Suddenly a loud arrow flew across the air, and there was a sound of orderly and rapid footsteps outside the house.Immediately someone shouted: "People from the government are here!"

The three boys flew down from the wall like a flying crane, with the bow and arrow in their hands facing Liang Jing'an.

And there are too many people!He threw down his bow and arrow, and he turned into a white shadow, chasing after Liang Jing'an.

"Second Uncle, take me away!" Liang Jing'an, who hadn't completely detoxified from the poison on his body, shouted.When Liang Nanshan heard this, he immediately gave up Hua Wujuan, turned into a black shadow, hugged Liang Jingan and ran out.

He Gu had already reached a consensus with Liang Jing'an, and at this time she was willing to die behind them.For a while, the small courtyard was full of people, and besides the sound of weapons clashing, there was also an unpleasant smell in the air.

After a while, many people coughed and felt that their throats were full of worms.Huakai and Huawujuan looked at each other, and immediately one of them picked up an iron chair and rushed out.

The chair was unexpectedly heavy, and with the crowd of refugees and officers and soldiers, it was difficult to move an inch for a while.After a while, there was another thick smoke at the door.Somebody set the house on fire!

Hua Wujuan and Huakai rushed out of the yard with the iron chair in hand, Hua Wujuan turned back and went in immediately!After a while, Han Yexin and Du Le were caught by him one by one.

Han Yexin was still coughing, so she grabbed the iron chair and asked Hua Manlou, "Hua Manlou, are you injured?"

For some reason, when Hua Manlou saw Han Yexin's distressed face, his heart was very soft and he was a little happy: "No."

"That's great." Han Yexin finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat down by the chair.

The fire on the first day of the new year immediately attracted many neighbors, all of whom rushed to fight the fire with buckets and wooden basins, and finally stopped the fire before it spread.Simply because it was snowing heavily, it was difficult to burn it.What to worry about is the crowd that tramples on each other in times of chaos.Some of those refugees fled, some were injured and were detained by the government.

Santong was the only one who chased after Liang Nanshan, and only his light skills competed with Liang Nanshan.

After a while, the adults of the Hua family also rushed over.Seeing that Huamanlou was fine, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.It's just that iron chair, but there's nothing to do with it.Hua Ruhai moved Huamanlou with chairs into the inn. He was going to send someone to find Master Lu, who had never seen him before, but Huamanlou thought of someone, and said, "Zhu Ting, isn't it?" Still living at home?"

Zhu Ting did still live in Huafu.Although he didn't have much acquaintance with Huamanlou, he also felt that this person was good, and he was a little worried when he heard that he was kidnapped, but this worry was not enough to make him leave his warm house.

Hua Ruhai slapped his head, and immediately sent someone to pick up Zhu Ting on a fast horse.If Huamanlou still doesn't have the emotion to make Zhu Ting act, then this mechanical chair must make him full of interest!

Hua Wujuan went to the government in his free time, he was doing bail for those refugees.Originally, for these people, they did nothing wrong at all.Liang Jingan's promise was something they dreamed about in their dreams, so what could they blame for protecting Liang Jingan?

But letting the government go out on the first day of the new year and causing such a big commotion, the Hua family will naturally have to have some entertainment afterwards.

No matter how fast it is, Zhu Ting will take a day to arrive.Hua Manlou had no choice but to be tied to an iron chair to accept everyone's care and care.He looked at the white porridge whose rice was like grains of jade, and thought of the porridge cooked in a large iron pot in a ruined temple outside the city.Seeing Hua Manlou's pensive look, Qiu Suping asked with a smile, "Son, this is not something you need to worry about right now."

Huamanlou knew that what Qiu Suping said meant that she would find a way.

"By the way, where's Du Le?"

Hua Manlou looked around, but the boy who could read lips had disappeared.He said to the adults: "Du Le is the one who saved me and helped me a lot."

The adults looked at each other and smiled.No one else will know what happened next.It's just that Huamanlou is still a little worried.Would Du Le think that he was a child of a rich family and would not want to approach him?Or go to Dule's people and say something that will hurt him?

Not long after finishing speaking, Ertong opened the curtain and walked in, with his hand on a young boy's shoulder.Du Le walked in front of Huamanlou, a little embarrassed: "It's just as long as you're fine."

Hua Manlou smiled and said, "Ale, thank you, without you, I would be worse than I am now."

Du Le smiled: "You are an auspicious person with a natural appearance."

Hua Manlou said: "Now that Young Master is gone, no one pays you wages, what are you going to do?"

Du Le said: "Let's take a step and watch. Anyway, people like me are just supported by the sky!"

Hua Manlou said: "Then would you like to go to Hua Mansion? I guarantee that the salary will be more or less!"

Du Le was a little surprised, a little happy, and a little hesitant: "But I don't know anything?"

Hua Manlou smiled and said, "Ale, how come you don't know anything! At least not many people know your lip language!"

Hearing this, Du Le felt relieved and said, "Then I will call you Young Master from now on!"

Huamanlou smiled.At this time, Han Yexin, who had been sleeping next to the iron chair, waved his hand and uttered a sleepy voice: "Who is Ah Le?"

The adults who had been listening with pricked ears couldn't help laughing.
