Chapter 15 Are Cao Bichang's Authentic Works Valuable?
The sign of the manor was still covered with red cloth, but the atmosphere at the gate had reached freezing point. Many young men had retreated far away, and some even blended into the crowd of ordinary people.
"It seems that it has been so long that you have all forgotten the majesty of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion."
Zhao Cheng shook his head and swung the riding whip so hard that Wang Yufeng was almost pulled off the horse.
At the same time, Zhao Cheng shouted: "Fu soldiers!"
Hearing this, everyone looked stern.
It was as if a deep memory came to their minds.
Four words suddenly appeared in front of their eyes.
Right Prime Minister's Mansion Soldiers!
"Ta-ta-ta-"
Everyone gasped when they saw men in black armor running out of the manor, each holding a spear vertically!
Black light armor, white-haired spear, and tiger head badge are the standard equipment of the soldiers of the Right Prime Minister's Palace!
Although at first glance, there were only about thirty soldiers who ran out, but when they stood behind Zhao Cheng, they were on a par with Wang Yufeng's men in terms of momentum.
Although Wang Yufeng's men were wearing armor, their horses were unsteady, their formation was messy, and their eyes were not fierce enough.
And the soldiers behind Zhao Cheng were all filled with killing intent!
Anyone who knows the history of Jingguo knows that the predecessor of this army is the elite warriors who followed Zhao Huan in all directions. They were the most powerful team during the reign of the late emperor. They were good at the evolution of formations, and their spears were like dragons. They were known as the 'Dragon' at that time.
Gunslinger'.
After the death of the late emperor, Zhao Huan canceled the title of Dragon Lancers and dispersed them into different establishments, leaving only 10,000 soldiers as the soldiers of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Later, some court officials impeached Zhao Huan for respecting his troops, so Zhao Huan cut off seven of his troops, leaving only three thousand.
After the current emperor established the left prime minister, Zhao Huan was seized of power and his family moved to the eastern capital. Before leaving, he was forced to disarm the army. Zhao Huan begged the emperor to leave him 300 people as bodyguards for self-defense.
The emperor and Zuo couldn't get along with 300 soldiers, and he didn't dare to push Zhao Huan too hard, so he agreed to keep 300 soldiers.
The three hundred soldiers who came all the way to Yanchuan are the best among the best!
They usually looked after the family and the courtyard, and when the court needed Zhao Huan, they would follow Zhao Huan to the front line. This time Zhao Huan went to the front line with two hundred soldiers as personal guards, and left a hundred soldiers in Yanchuan to look after the family.
Zhao Cheng didn't like leading soldiers through the city like Wang Yufeng, nor did he like Xu An's almost exaggerated ostentation, so he rarely went out with his soldiers.
Today, the thirty soldiers of the palace were just brought in by him to support the appearance.
I didn't expect it to come in handy.
"Zhao Wu!"
"exist!!"
"Master, I allow you to draw your sword today!"
Clang!!
Zhao Wu pulled out all the knives and shouted: "Yes!!"
Zhao Cheng shouted: "My manor is also part of the Youxiang Mansion. If anyone dares to act wild in the Youxiang Mansion today, he will be killed without mercy!!"
"kill!"
"kill!!"
"kill!!!"
All the soldiers took a step forward and fired their long spears horizontally, pointing directly at Wang Yufeng!
"Ouch!"
The murderous intent suddenly broke out, and the horse under Wang Yufeng's crotch was so frightened that it stood upright. Wang Yufeng lost his balance and rolled off the horse.
As soon as he fell, the private soldiers who had been scared to death retreated one after another, and in an instant they became a mob.
We haven’t even fought yet, but the outcome has already been decided!
Chen Yuxian quickly helped Wang Yufeng up and asked worriedly: "How are you, young general?"
Wang Yufeng gasped for breath, staring at Zhao Cheng with eyes like bells, but there was nothing he could do for a moment.
The power of the troops of Youxiangfu was only mentioned by my father before.
Today I saw it with my own eyes.
He is not stupid. When he saw these thirty soldiers, murderous intent overflowed from all of them...
How many people have to be killed to make this happen!
Fight head-on with them?
Wang Yufeng looked back at the embarrassed private soldiers...
Just these rotten bird eggs?
Am I stupid!?
But adhering to the principle of not losing the battle, Wang Yufeng stood up and adjusted his silver armor. When he was about to take a step forward, he put his feet back in the air and said on the spot: "How can this general be so unreasonable?"
Who? Our business is between us, there is no need to involve the Right Prime Minister’s Mansion and the General’s Mansion!”
Chen Yuxian said with a smile on his face: "That's right, Mr. Xiang, today is a happy day, there is no need to be so stiff!"
With that said, Chen Yuxian ran over and fanned Zhao Cheng with his sleeves.
"They are all young people, let's calm down!"
"No, no, Master Chen has embarrassed this junior."
Zhao Cheng also slapped Chen Yuxian, but maybe he didn't control the intensity well, and hit Chen Yuxian's face with the back of his hand.
"Oh Master Chen, look at me, my hands have been shaking since I was a child, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!!"
Chen Yuxian covered his face and gritted his teeth. When he raised his head, the smile returned to his face and he said with a smile: "Hahaha, Mr. Xiang, you have something wrong that needs to be cured!"
"Treat him quickly, cure him quickly! I'll go get a miracle doctor later!" Zhao Cheng raised his hand, scaring Chen Yuxian to hide back.
"Master Chen misunderstood." Zhao Cheng glanced at his hand, then turned around and said, "Stop it! Look, you scared Master Chen!"
"Ouch!!!"
Thirty soldiers withdrew their guns at the same time, as one man.
Zhao Wu also sheathed the sword, but he didn't sheath it yet.
Wang Yufeng snorted loudly, turned around and left, and the private soldiers followed him one after another.
After walking a few steps, Wang Yufeng suddenly stopped again, turned around and said, "I forgot to mention that in the box sent by this general, there is a calligraphy written by Cao Bichang!"
Hearing this, not only the people around him screamed in surprise, but Xu An also screamed instinctively.
"Even Cao Bichang's original work was sent!" Xu An looked at Zhao Cheng doubtfully and said, "This gift is very sincere!"
Wang Yufeng continued: "I spent 50,000 taels of silver to buy this calligraphy on the black market. The rest of the gifts are worth almost 50,000 taels in total, a total of 100,000! The day Xu An won Cai'e from me was also 100,000."
Wan! Although I came to you, Zhao Cheng, to ask for someone, I never thought of letting you suffer!"
Zhao Cheng nodded and said: "I understand what you mean, return the box!"
"No need!" Wang Yufeng said with an arrogant look on his face: "I can still afford to give you this little money! But Zhao Cheng, don't blame me for not reminding you. I have written down what happened today. Just pray that your father can find a good future for you.
Come on, or I’ll make you pay back tenfold one day!!”
"Ten times, so much! Isn't it a million taels of silver?" Zhao Cheng waved his hand and said, "That's not possible, I will pay you back today."
"Zhao Wu!" Zhao Cheng walked towards those boxes.
"exist!"
"Don't you always want to show off your sword skills?"
Zhao Cheng pulled out the words from the box, then threw it into the sky and said, "Give you a chance!"
Seeing this, Zhao Wu threw the knife fiercely.
The word pierced fell to the ground.
Zhao Cheng dusted off the dust in his hands, walked under the plaque of the manor, turned his back to Wang Yufeng and said: "I have already returned the words, it is up to you whether you want to or not."
"That's too much!" Wang Yufeng almost went crazy.
Chen Yuxian grabbed him tightly and said softly: "Young general, please calm down. There are many ways to deal with him. Let's go back and discuss it later..."
Wang Yufeng is angry here, but those young masters are going crazy.
This is Cao Bichang’s authentic work!
Seeing the pierced words, they felt terribly distressed. This was not a matter of fifty thousand taels of silver, but something that even money could not buy!
But Zhao Cheng was fine, he broke it when he said it would break.
What a loser!
Noticing the expressions on everyone's faces, Zhao Cheng asked, "What's wrong? You just messed up a word. Why do you all look like your parents are dead?"
"Xiao Xiangye, this is the authentic work of Cao Bichang!"
"You are wasting your natural resources, Mr. Xiang..."
Zhao Cheng looked confused and asked: "Are Cao Bichang's authentic works valuable?"
"this……"
"You, this, this..."
"How come the young prime minister doesn't even know about Cao Bichang!"
Zhao Cheng shook his head and said: "It's not that I don't know Cao Bichang, I also know Daxia Jin, Mr. Pu... What I'm wondering about is, are their authentic works as valuable as you say?"
"Of course!!"
"oh……"
Zhao Cheng picked up the bamboo pole and said: "It just delayed the unveiling time, but it doesn't matter, good things are never too late."
sand--
The bamboo pole lifted the red cloth, revealing the plaque of the manor.
“Elegant Manor!”
As they looked at it, everyone's eyes widened, not because of the name, but because of the signature——
The title of Jin Daxia.
Zhao Cheng swung the bamboo pole left and right and lifted up the plaques on both sides.
"four Seasons!"
——Question from Mr. Pu.
"Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting!"
——Inscribed by Cao Bichang.
Xia Qi, Qiu Shu, and Dong Hua looked at each other with pride in their eyes.
This is where the names of their four maids came from.
All the guests were stunned, staring directly at the signature below.
Golden Hero...
Mr. Pu...
Cao Bichang...
Zhao Cheng pointed the bamboo pole at Cao Bichang's inscription and asked with a confused look: "You said that Cao Bichang's original work is very valuable, so will the inscription she personally wrote for me also be very valuable?"
When the guests' heads were buzzing and they didn't know how to answer such a question, Zhao Cheng asked again: "Are the inscriptions by Jin Daxia and Mr. Pu also very valuable?"
"I don't understand very well, please teach me and tell me!"
Not far away, Wang Yufeng and Chen Yuxian walked away.
If they don't leave, they feel like they will suffer internal injuries and spurt out several kilograms of blood!
This is a place where I don’t want to stay for a moment!
