Opposite the entrance hall

Thinking of this, I feel a lot of emotion.

Qi Ran was in a turmoil, and was drinking a cup of tea to relieve the bitterness in his heart, when he suddenly felt a icy palm wind coming from behind him, mixed with rustling air, directly hitting the Mingmen Fengchi acupoint on the back of his head, so he paused, his ears slightly He trembled to listen to the wind to argue his position, then he pursed his lips at the sound, his lower body didn't move at all, he just tilted his neck slightly, and suddenly he saw a hand in the shape of five claws pressing close to his ear, attacking so fiercely that he broke several of his legs The hair on the temples slowly fell to the ground.

Although the person came to nothing, he moved very quickly. He immediately changed the angle and grabbed Qi Ran's neck with his wrist reversed. The latter's face remained unchanged, and he knocked on the Xiaohai point on the person's elbow with a precise target while holding a teacup. After receiving this blow, the man immediately changed his attack, turning his claws into palms, his palms were vigorous and powerful, and his moves were full of strength.

The two of you come and go, defending and attacking, and they have gone through dozens of moves. It seems that they know each other's skills, and no one can please them.

In an instant, the porcelain cup in Qi Ran's hand fell to the ground, and there was a sound of shattering, like a signal. The person behind him dropped his palm and stretched out his leg. A dark energy focused on his right leg, and he bowed his knees, carrying a burst of air pressure. The startled stone table shook violently, the chess pieces on the chessboard jumped apart, and the teapot placed on top was oppressed by it. With a "bang", it exploded in all directions, and the orange liquid fell down the stone table, making a ticking sound. With the sound of ticking, the fragrance of tea is all around, which is refreshing.

Qi Ran used his waist and abdomen to stand on the center of gravity, then he fell back forcefully, avoiding the kick without any danger, and turned back to receive his palm with his right hand in front of his chest.

The two palms touched each other, and a dark coercion seemed to spread around, and the waves of the lake surface spread from this place. The two hands went numb, and they retracted their strength one after another. They were bounced away by this force, and then Qi Ran's left foot With the tiptoes on the ground, he took off and jumped up in the air, flying out of the pavilion.

The visitor laughed loudly, stomped his feet, followed closely behind with the cold wind, and lightly crossed the lake surface, causing circles of ripples.

There was a lot of movement between the two, and Qi Xu, who hadn't walked far away, looked behind him, and what he saw was under the sky full of red clouds, one black and one white were entangled and fighting in the middle of the lake.

This man pressed forward every step of the way, and his moves focused on the ruthless part, targeting at Qi Ran's weak points, his palms were sharp and his fists were powerful, like a ferocious beast, wanting to bite and tear the prey in front of him.

Contrary to him, Qi Ran didn't advance and retreat, but dodged left and right on the lake, didn't exert all his strength, dressed in white clothes like a frightened bird, and could defuse every fatal blow one by one with ease, without showing any embarrassment.

The guards of the Qi Mansion rushed over upon hearing the sound, and were about to rush forward to take down the thief, when they saw Qi Xu stretching out his hand to stop them, they looked at each other in disbelief, but they didn't dare to disobey and had to stand where they were.

Seeing Qi Ran being so careless, with raised eyebrows, sharp eyes, and a smile on the corner of his mouth, the outsider took out a palm-sized wooden box engraved with auspicious clouds and auspicious patterns from his sleeve, and pressed it on Qi Ran. With a whoosh sound, many silver needles flew out of the wooden box, thin and long, overwhelming the people.

There was no way to avoid it, Qi Ran was startled, his eyes darkened, he tapped the lake surface with his toes, hurriedly stepped back, raised his hand and folded the bamboo on the side, hung in the air, turned his wrist over, and the green bamboo was a sword, holding it in the air A few sword flowers, the bamboo sword flashed a gleam of light, and then a green light flashed across the sky, at the same time he held the sword and rushed in and shouted sharply: "Break!"

The rain curtain formed by the silver needles seemed to have hit some kind of barrier, and they changed directions one after another, shrank back in shock, the man panicked, and hurriedly raised his breath to avoid it, but he didn't know that Qi Ran saw the right time, The shape was extremely fast, and in an instant, he held the bamboo sword to meet him, and the air in the air pressed over like a knife, aiming directly at the weak throat of this person.

Between lightning and flint, the outcome has been decided.

But at this critical moment when he could win with a single move, Qi Ran suddenly withdrew his sword, held back his sword energy, turned around and lightly touched the lake surface, and floated up to stand on the tip of the pavilion in the lake, dressed in white. Against the background of the lake and the sky, the whole figure seems to be glowing, as beautiful as a painting.

The sneak attacker held his chest and retreated in succession, staggered a few steps and stabilized his body, then coughed a few times, then looked up at the person standing above, shrugged, and said with a smile: "Success, lost again, If people outside know that I, a general who leads troops in battle, can’t beat you, a powerless civil servant, I’m not going to be in the army anymore, it’s better to be disarmed and return to the field.”

After thinking about it, he was extremely unhappy and added, "It doesn't count, it doesn't count, you used a weapon, I haven't taken out my red tasseled gun yet, it's clear that bullying is unfair, this time it doesn't count, wait for the next time Let's find a good time and have a quick fight."

Qi Ran floated down the pavilion, the sleeves of his toga were fluttered by the evening wind, and in the blink of an eye, he was standing in front of this man, stuffing the bamboo sword with tender leaves in his hand into his arms, turned around and walked towards him. Walking in the pavilion, he said very arrogantly: "If you come over with ten red-tasseled guns, you may not be able to beat me."

"I'll go, Qi Ziheng, do you dare to be a little more crazy! You learned my method from the Pei family, anyway, I'm still your nominal senior brother!"

"Oh," Qi Ran raised his eyebrows, "Can't even beat the senior brother?"

"Didn't I let you do that?" He said angrily, and turned his head to Qi Xu who had been watching the bank for a long time and shouted loudly: "Brother Zizhan, can't you just take care of him!"

Qi Xu smiled and spread his hands and said softly: "It's not like you don't know his temper. When did you see me and I'll take care of him. You two haven't seen Haosheng for a long time. I still have something to do."

After finishing speaking, he was about to leave, but the smile on his face immediately subsided as soon as he turned around, and he sternly said to the guards of the Qi Mansion beside him, "Please tell me, don't tell me about General Pei's coming to the mansion, just keep your mouth shut." Control it, keep it tight, if something leaks out, no matter if it's from you guys or not, everyone will be shot."

"Yes."

Qi Ran raised his eyes and saw Qi Xu leading the guards away, he felt that his brother would make arrangements properly, and he was not worried, so he beckoned and ordered the maid to tidy up the messy pavilion. , After a while, it was cleaned up, and hot tea was served and incense was burned.

He scalded the cup, poured out the sewage and poured two more cups of tea, pushed a cup of tea over, then slowly picked up the cup in front of him, took a sip, and when he put down the cup, the person opposite was already there. After taking a sip, he smashed his mouth and complained, "Tsk! This tea is as watery as water. No, it's better to drink water. Drinking water can quench your thirst anyway. It's useless to drink a glass of this stuff. It's pretentious and pretentious. If you want me to say it's still good to drink, I feel comfortable after drinking a bowl. I got a few altars of good wine from Guangping Pass this time, old burning knives, and when you come to my house some other day, I invite you Eat wine."

"Don't eat." Qi Ran said lightly.

"I can't, you don't even eat good wine?" Pei Zhan's eyes widened.

"Drinking is a mistake, and the head is easily dizzy and can't think clearly about the problem."

Hearing this, Pei Zhan rolled his eyes, "I wonder if the person who took me to my father's wine cellar before was you."

Qi Ran looked at him with a funny face, and said proudly: "You know why we both stole your father's wine together, but you are the one who gets punished every time?"

Pei Zhan was also puzzled, and asked in puzzlement when he heard this, "Why?"

"Didn't you look in the mirror on weekdays? Didn't you see that you wrote trouble on your left cheek and trouble on your right cheek?"

"Bah," Pei Zhan glared at him, "Then why don't you blame you for putting on a show, with hypocrisy written on the left cheek and hypocrisy written on the right cheek."

Qi Ran raised his eyebrows with a smile, and didn't deny it. After the joke, he still remembered to ask something important, "When did you arrive?"

Hearing this tone, Pei Zhan also restrained his smile, sat upright, and poured a cup of tea. He didn't drink it all at once, but turned the cup in his hand, and said with a light smile: "Not long after I arrived, I traveled day and night at a fast pace. It was a day earlier than expected. I didn't bring many people, but I brought a small team, so my feet were faster. When I came, I just asked someone to hand me the booklet, and I guessed tomorrow. In order to get the transmission, I ordered my people to station outside the city to rest, thinking that I hadn’t been thinking about home for a long time, so I sneaked into the city to have a look, and I have to go back in a while.”

"No one saw you when you came, did you?"

After all, the military general who returned to the capital went to the city to meet with other officials before being informed. If this was seen by others, he would not be able to explain it clearly in a few words.

"Don't worry, I'm picking the way with few people. No one noticed me along the way," Pei Zhan smiled, "What's more, my qinggong is pretty good, how can I be so careless to be seen by others."

Qi Ran nodded and asked again: "Have you seen Pei Yao and the others?"

"Not yet, I'm planning to come back after passing by you," he said, putting down his glass and leaning closer, "By the way, guess who I just met outside the city?"

"Who?"

Pei Zhanshen said mysteriously: "King Liang."

"King Liang?" Qi Ran read it again, "What is he doing outside the city?"

"I don't know," Pei Zhan shrugged, "I was afraid that his subordinates would find out that he was planning to avoid it, and suddenly heard your name, so he held his breath and squatted on the tree to listen to the tail, saying that you are going to Xiangzhou ?”

"Well, I'll leave in the future."

"The place is in chaos now. When I returned to Beijing, I passed by and looked at it from a distance. Damn, they are all refugees wandering around. They look so pitiful. Your trip is not easy, and there is a long way to go. ah!"

"If I tell you that Ji Si is going with me, what do you think?"

"Ji Si?" Pei Zhan frowned and recalled in his mind, and then he was shocked, "The one from the household department?"

"Or which one?"

Pei Zhan pursed his lips, his eyes were full of sympathy, "Dude, you have wolves in front and tigers in back, it's too miserable."

Qi Ran was amused by his expression, he curled his lips and smiled, instead of continuing the topic, he asked something else, "Your Majesty called you back to Beijing this time, have you thought about how to deal with it?"

"Hey!" Pei Zhan sighed, "I'm worried about this matter. Do you think His Majesty will reward me just because of my meritorious service in suppressing the chaos this time, and after receiving the reward, he will let me go."

"If you really think so, you'd be a fool," Qi Ran said, "You are the youngest in the Quartet Garrison. You have not been in the Pei family's army for ten years, and you have made great achievements in suppressing the rebellion and taking in Guangping. You are only twenty-five years old. You can already be regarded as a person, two years earlier than the original Guo Jingyi, Guo Jingyi is still the uncle of King Rui, at least he has something to do with the royal family, how about you? Is your Pei family a son-in-law or a concubine? You have been away from the capital all year round, and you can't even find a place to make a decision, and finally took this opportunity to call you back, can your majesty let you go back easily?"

"Should I hide Zangfeng instead of being so ostentatious?"

"What Your Majesty wants is that you shed your blood for the Jin Dynasty, and you want you to be loyal and loyal when you are called, and you want your reputation to show the power of the Jin Dynasty," Qi Ran said softly, "It has nothing to do with whether you are ostentatious or not. .”

Pei Zhan looked at him, frowned and asked, "Then according to what you said, what should I do when I enter the palace tomorrow?"

Qi Ran contemplated with his eyebrows fixed, and tapped his right hand on the stone table, making a rattling sound. After a while, he stopped, raised his eyes and smiled at Pei Zhan, raised his eyebrows, " Yes, come over with your ear and I will tell you."

A gust of night wind blows, rolls up the fallen leaves on the ground, and floats in the air with a small spin. The bamboo leaves by the lake are swayed by the breeze, making a rustling sound, and the bright and dark shadows hit the ground, which is very quiet and pleasant.

Pei Yao stared at the thick pagoda tree surrounded by three people in the courtyard in a daze. The night wind was a bit cool, messing up her temple hair, and the shadow of the tree hit her body, covering her with an indistinct halo.

The next moment, there was the sound of footsteps, and a thin cloak was put on her body. Pei Yao subconsciously raised her head to hold the cloak, turned her gaze along the cloak, and saw the nanny standing behind her.

The old lady is an old man of the Pei family, and she brought up several masters, so she spoke a little more casually than ordinary servants, "It's windy, miss can't stand the cold, why don't you wear more clothes."

Pei Yao withdrew her eyes and continued to look at the locust tree, and asked in a flat tone: "When will the elder brother arrive?"

"According to the letter, it will be two days."

"Then please send someone to tidy up his room. Don't burn incense. Eldest brother is not used to the smell."

As soon as the words fell, laughter came from behind, "Sure enough, Yao'er understands me best."

Hearing this, Pei Yao's expression changed, she turned her head suddenly, and saw Pei Zhan behind her, with a smile on her lips, which reached directly to her eyes.

Pei Yao walked up to meet her excitedly, she opened her mouth and said, "Brother, can you have dinner?"

"Not yet."

"I'll arrange it now."

After finishing speaking, he was about to turn around in a hurry, but Pei Zhan grabbed her and said with a smile, "No hurry, brother still has something to say."

After speaking, he let go of Pei Yao, patted her head with his body, and smiled warmly, "Brother is back."

Pei Yao's eyes were red and she swallowed, holding back her tears and smiling, "Welcome home!"
