[Comprehensive martial arts] On the conduct of Jinyiwei's commanders

"Why are you sitting here alone?"

When Chu Liuxiang walked around, he saw Ji Bingyan sitting in the corner.

The desert is really a strange place, it is so hot during the day, but it is cold enough to freeze at night, Ji Bingyan's clothes are covered with hoarfrost, but he still sits as if he doesn't feel anything, motionless, It seems to have passed out.

"Why don't you put on a blanket?" Chu Liuxiang asked, "Could it be that you can't feel the cold?"

"When I feel cold, I will naturally find something to cover myself." Ji Bingyan said lightly, "You don't need to talk about it."

Chu Liuxiang touched his nose and stopped talking.

Chu Liuxiang stopped talking, and Ji Bingyan went to look at him instead. As soon as he saw Chu Liuxiang, he frowned, "Why is the edge of your shoe stained with wet mud?"

Chu Liuxiang lowered her head, "I went around the lake just now."

"With your lightness skills, even if you go to the edge of the swamp, you won't get a little bit of it." Ji Bingyan said coldly, "Did you meet someone by the lake?"

Chu Liuxiang smiled, "I wanted to surprise you."

"What surprise?"

"The one I met by the lake was Lu Xiaofeng."

"Lu Xiaofeng?" Ji Bingyan was startled, "Lu Xiaofeng with four eyebrows?"

"Who else but him?"

Ji Bingyan's expression softened, and he said slowly, "This is indeed a surprise, with Lu Xiaofeng here, we will be more confident in dealing with Shi Guanyin."

"Isn't there always a certainty?" Chu Liuxiang smiled, "Lu Xiaofeng came here with Shen Baizhong."

Chu Liuxiang originally thought that Ji Bingyan would be happier after hearing this, but his performance was beyond Chu Liuxiang's expectation.

"Shen Baizhong?" Ji Bingyan said coldly, "I don't believe him."

"Why?" Chu Liuxiang asked puzzled, "Could it be that you and Shen Bai finally have some quarrel?"

"No."

"Then why don't you trust him?" Chu Liuxiang felt even more strange.

"Because I've never seen him."

"You haven't seen Lu Xiaofeng either."

"The two are completely different." Ji Bingyan said, "Lu Xiaofeng's friends are all well-known figures in the world. Whether it is Sikong Zhaixing, Huamanlou, or an honest monk, or Wudang Mu Taoist, Ximen Chuuxue, these people are all friends. Very prestigious."

Chu Liuxiang admitted.

"If a person can be friends with these people at the same time, then he will definitely not be bad, and he will definitely not be a villain." Ji Bingyan continued, "What's more, Lu Xiaofeng's own reputation is also very good, he is already very famous. man."

"Yes."

"Shen Baizhong is the commander of Jinyiwei." Ji Bingyan said, "If he interferes with this matter, he must have other motives."

Chu Liuxiang smiled, "He really has other plans."

This time it was Ji Bingyan's turn to wonder, "Could it be that you already know his purpose?"

"I know."

"What is it?"

Chu Liuxiang said, "You must know what happened to me in the Central Plains not long ago."

"Ah."

"You must also know the wife of Ci, the director of the Beggar Gang."

"I seem to have heard of it."

"Qiu Lingsu lost her appearance because of Shi Guanyin, and the last thing she did before her appearance was destroyed was to ask someone to draw herself."

Ji Bingyan listened quietly.

"After her appearance was destroyed, Qiu Lingsu was almost going crazy. At that time, she was only surrounded by the painter." Chu Liuxiang sighed, "So she gouged out the painter's eyes."

"I have heard and seen many such things." Ji Bingyan said coldly, "What does this have to do with Shen Baizhong?"

"This painter is already a member of Jin Yiwei." Chu Liuxiang said.

Ji Bingyan was about to continue listening, but he found that Chu Liuxiang had shut his mouth.

"Gone?"

"Gone."

"...You mean, Shen Baizhong came to the desert to avenge the painter?"

"Yes."

Ji Bingyan was silent, and after a while, she asked, "You've always been very accurate in seeing people."

"Correct."

"If Shen Baizhong is really as you said, then he is indeed a very good person." Ji Bingyan sighed, "No matter where such a person is placed, he can attract many people to follow him."

"That's right." Chu Liuxiang smiled, "You are very wary of him now, just because you haven't met him yet. If you see him, you can't help but want to be his friend."

Ji Bingyan nodded slowly, "Actually, I am so vigilant because of another person."

"Oh?"

"Have you ever heard of Zhang Hu, a wealthy businessman from Shanxi?"

"That's a very rich man." Chu Liuxiang said, "His family has been in business for three generations, and he can be called wealthy when he comes here. It is said that the only person who can compare with him in wealth is Huo Xiu from Jiangnan."

"Zhang Hu has only one son." Ji Bingyan said.

"I don't know that."

"Zhang Hu's son is called Zhang Pingye." Ji Bingyan said, "Zhang Pingye is a thousand households of Jinyiwei."

Chu Liuxiang understood.

Ji Bingyan is a businessman, and sooner or later a businessman will have to deal with Zhang Hu. This Zhang Pingye must have done something surprising, which happened to be seen by Ji Bingyan.

"Zhang Hu is a difficult person." Ji Bingyan said coldly, "I started doing business after I came back alive from the desert, and no one has been able to take advantage of me for more than ten years."

"That's why Xiao Hu called you a dead cock." Chu Liuxiang laughed.

"But Zhang Hu took away a full 20 taels from me." Ji Bingyan sneered, "He took the money, and I have nothing to do. I have to smile and ask him to continue doing business with me."

Chu Liuxiang stopped laughing, he knew very well how cautious and careful Ji Bingyan was, it seemed that this wealthy businessman had real skills to reach the current state.

"Zhang Hu is already so cunning and difficult to deal with, but he is not half as good as his son. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand." Chu Liuxiang sighed, "No wonder you would..."

Chu Liuxiang was about to continue talking when she saw Lu Xiaofeng walking towards this side.

Lu Xiaofeng's expression was really strange, he was thinking, but the question he was thinking about seemed to be why fish grow legs and run on the ground, only when thinking about such a strange question would he have such a strange expression.

"What's wrong with you?" Chu Liuxiang couldn't help asking.

"I saw a very strange person." Lu Xiaofeng said, "I can't figure out what she is going to do."

"Who did you see?" Ji Bingyan asked.

"I saw a woman." Lu Xiaofeng nodded towards Ji Bingyan, and the two were considered to know each other.

"Is there anything wrong with this woman?" Chu Liuxiang asked.

"She sneaked into the wedding tent." Lu Xiaofeng said, "What is she doing in there? Is there someone else rushing to make this bride?"

"Maybe she wants to attack the princess." Chu Liuxiang said, "This person might be Shi Guanyin's subordinate. Maybe she wants to know the secret of the Bliss Star."

Chu Liuxiang and Ji Bingyan frowned when they heard that someone wanted to ruin Hu Tiehua's wedding.

"Princess Pipa is still by her father's side, what's the use of going to the wedding room now?" Ji Bingyan was puzzled, "If she wants to do something, she should wait a while before going."

"So I can't figure it out." Lu Xiaofeng said, "I can't figure out what she is going to do. There is nothing in the wedding room. Could it be that she is going to poison the food?"

"I should go and have a look." Chu Liuxiang hesitated, "Xiao Hu is always reckless, even if there is any mistake, he probably won't be able to see it."

"Okay. I'll go with you too." Lu Xiaofeng said, "If that person still stays in the tent and hasn't come out, I can just block it."

"I'll just stay here."

Ji Bingyan is a very cautious person. Since he chose this place to sit down, this place will never be bad. It is backed by the lake, and there are three big tents in front of it. No matter who moves, he can't escape his eyes.

"If Xiao Hu comes looking for you, you should slow him down first." Chu Liuxiang said, "We can discuss everything after we come back."

Ji Bingyan nodded.

----------

Beizhen Fusi.

April in the capital is already very warm, some ducks have swam in the moat, the willows in the city have grown leaves, and the swallows in Fusi of Beizhen have also returned.

It was late at night, and those who dared to walk on the streets at this time, except for the night watchmen, were only Jin Yiwei who shuttled through the streets and alleys.

Whenever they push open a door, the people inside the door will feel ashamed.

"Senior Zong."

A tall, thin old man with a white beard turned his head.

He was dressed in clothes that seemed to be worn by a teacher. Although he was tall and thin, he was very energetic and looked dignified. Although he didn't move, it could be seen that his actions must be decisive and neat.

This person who looks like a teacher naturally holds a book in his hand, but what is written in the book is not the truth of Confucius, but all the cases that Beizhen Fusi took over this month.

"You're back." Zong Yebai said flatly, while he was talking, he turned a page in the book in his hand.

"Yes." Zhang Pingye replied with a smile, "Senior Zong, a new prisoner has been imprisoned this time, please take some time to see how to deal with it."

"Yeah." Zong Yebai walked into the study and put the candlestick on the table, "A prisoner brought back from Jiangnan?"

"Yes." Zhang Pingye also went in, "He's from the rivers and lakes, his name is Huo Tianqing."

"Huo Tianqing?" Zong Yebai said, "It seems a little familiar."

"It's not a big shot." Zhang Pingye said respectfully, "In this case, he collaborated with a royal family of the Jinpeng Dynasty to kill Yan Tieshan of Zhuguang Baoqi Pavilion."

"anything else?"

"Nothing else."

"Then there will be another trial. If you haven't committed any other crimes, you will be dealt with according to my Ming law." Zong Yebai said coldly, "Even if you are a Jianghu person, you must abide by our court's laws."

"nature."

"Where is Bai Zhong?" Zong Yebai asked, and the mention of this name made his eyes a little more angry, and his whole body seemed to become gentle, "Why hasn't he come back yet?"

"The Commander has gone to the desert."

"What did he go to the desert for?"

"Go and kill Shi Guanyin." Zhang Pingye said.

"Is it because of the new old man?" Zong Yebai asked, "The old man who writes and draws all day long?"

Zong Yebai himself is not young, yet he insists on calling someone an old man, which is really funny.

"Are you talking about Mr. Sun Xuepu, Mr. Sun?"

"I don't want to know his name." Zong Yebai said coldly, "Who he is has nothing to do with me."

"I'll meet Huo Tianqing in a while. If there's nothing else, you can come over tomorrow and take him to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

"Yes."

Zong Yebai sat down, and just as he sat down, he stood up again.

It's not that he didn't get a chair, it's just that there's something stuck under his desk.

It's not a bad thing, it's just Huo Xiang's medicine powder, and the medicine powder is not a bad medicine powder, it's just the kind of medicine powder that can only be used on prisoners.

If Zong Yebai had gone to pull the drawer just now, he would have touched the medicinal powder in one hand. He does not know martial arts and has no internal strength. If he touched this medicinal powder, he would definitely feel uncomfortable for a whole month.

Because this is a powder that makes people feel itchy.

Although Zong Yebai is not bound like a prisoner, but he loves to save face the most, and he also likes to pay attention to some literati things. He will never tickle in front of others, and he will never because of such a shameful thing to see the doctor.

Huo Xiang prescribes the medicine because he knows what kind of person he is.

Zong Yebai saw the medicine powder clearly, and his complexion immediately changed, it was as black as the bottom of a black pot in the kitchen.

After he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve to wipe the table clean, he wrapped the handkerchief and went out angrily.

Zhang Pingye watched everything happen with a smile, and he didn't move until the door was closed by the night wind.

With just this, he walked from the table to the water tank, and carefully looked at the turtle in the tank.

It was late at night and the tortoise was already asleep, but Zhang Pingye carefully measured its length and width through the water tank. He looked at it as if he had never seen a tortoise before, as if this tortoise belonged to the whole world. The prettiest one.

When Zhang Hu hired an arithmetic teacher for him, Zhang Pingye was not so serious.

After he had taken a good look at the tortoise, he walked out lightly. On the way, he met Jin Yiwei, who was watching the night, and greeted him with a smile, as if he had never done anything wrong.

That's right.

Zhang Pingye did something wrong tonight.

What has he done?

Perhaps only Huo Xiang's medicine powder that was suddenly stolen knew about it.

Mr. Huo has too many criminal records. He always secretly trips Mr. Zong. Everyone in Fusi of Beizhen knows that they have a bad relationship. , will not deny it.

He wished he could quarrel with Zong Yebai when he had nothing to do.

Just as Zhang Pingye pushed open the wooden door that belonged to him, he stopped.

He took a few steps back and saw Chen Jueyin standing on the ridge of the roof.

Chen Jueyin was as cold as a piece of ice, and the bright moon behind her would never be colder than her.

"It's so late, what are you doing here?"

"I want to go with you tomorrow." Chen Jueyin said coldly.

"I don't have anything to do tomorrow."

Zhang Pingye thought that no one else would know what he was doing, and no one in the Fusi of Beizhen could see his tricks, not even Zong Yebai.

With his blushing and breathless appearance, he is really suitable to be a businessman.

He really deserves to be Zhang Hu's son.

Both father and son like to laugh, but when they laugh, they are the most ruthless, unknowingly deceiving people to the point where they don't even have any underwear left.

When they hurt you, they never want to do it themselves, you will always hit the knife without knowing it.

"You know what I want." Chen Jueyin said coldly, "Although I can't see what you did, I know that you must have seen that turtle."

"How did you know I saw that turtle?"

Chen Jueyin doesn't speak, she never likes to talk, what she likes is drawing a knife.

If someone insists on talking to her, she is more willing to get rid of the person who wants her to talk.

So Zhang Pingye only said one sentence, and then kept silent.

He could see that Chen Jueyin's martial arts had improved again, and before Chen Jueyin had improved, he couldn't beat her no matter what.

"It's better like this." Zhang Pingye stretched out a finger, "Go to Clay Figurine Zhang to buy clay, and I'll go to the craftsman, and we'll pay together!"

"it is good!"
