Qianru had already turned her back in embarrassment, but the black-armored general didn't know how to avoid it, and even drove his horse closer to pick her face with his whip.
"Sijin villain, what are you doing?"
Before Pang Yu shouted, Fan Xin had already jumped up high and kicked the black-armored general off his horse.
The black-armored general fell into a panic, got up with a groan, and whipped Fan Xin hard with his whip.
"If you dare to do the following, believe it or not, I will beat you to death right now, beat you to death!"
Seeing this, Pang Yu grabbed the bow and arrow on the ground, aimed at the black armored general's arm and shot.
Fortunately, Qianru rushed forward and pushed him, and the arrow missed. Otherwise, he would have committed the following crime.
The black-armored general saw the arrow stuck in his side and whipped Pang Yu.
Pang Yu pulled tightly, and the two looked at each other, gnashing their teeth in hatred.
"Don't think that I dare not deal with you. Even if General Pang comes in person today, I will punish you severely with military law!"
"Hmph! Get rid of us. You probably don't know who the lady next to you is."
"Who in the Youxiao Guard Camp has such a good fortune?"
Fan Xin said: "She is the wife of my eldest brother Shangguan Yuan. If you are sensible, please kowtow and apologize!"
The black-armored general Jin Xin quenched his saliva and said with a smile: "He just gave him the false title of Third-Rank Anbei General, and he also wants to take advantage of me? You guys, believe it or not, I put my words here, Shangguan Yuan wants to
What bad luck!"
Qianru faintly smelled a special fragrance on Jin Xin's body, like the finger-wrap recipe prepared by Ban Mian Peach Blossom Xia.
It is specially used in private rooms. It has the effect of a little intoxicating fragrance, which is convenient for some singers and dancers who accompany the wine to deal with some lustful guests and get them out of the entanglement by drinking them early.
This fragrance is so strong that it will take the next day to dissipate even if it sticks to your body, even if you shower and wash it off.
Jin Xin didn't smell of alcohol at all, and the fragrance was relatively light. He thought he had been going there for two days.
Half-faced peach blossom is a gold-selling den. For a military attache like Jin Xin, the salary for the first quarter will be wiped out in just a few visits.
Seeing Fan Xin clenching his fists and about to charge forward, Qianru quickly stopped him.
At the same time, a clever idea came to her mind.
Seeing Jin Xin staring straight at her, almost salivating, Qianru calmly covered her face with a smile, "We are all colleagues, why should we hurt the harmony?"
The beauty came out to break up the fight, and Jin Xin's attitude became gentler, "I don't want to go to war, general, but the army has military rules and regulations, which cannot be ignored."
"From the momentum of the general's words, I know that your official position is quite high!" As she said that, Qianru drove Fan Xin and Pang Yu aside and quietly gave Jin Xin a hundred taels of silver.
"General, don't refuse. This is the amount of money you should give me to apologize for the collision between my two brothers. Shopkeeper Zhao, who is half-hearted, is my good sister. I will be the host in the evening. I will set up a drink there and make another apology to the general."
Jin Xin thought she was that kind of frivolous and frivolous person, so she smiled from ear to ear and got on her horse happily.
Qianru was afraid that he would become suspicious later, so she hid her face with a smile and told him not to forget the appointment that evening.
Jin Xinxiao was elated and said teasingly: "Madam is like this, aren't you afraid that General Shangguan will be jealous?"
"He's so sick that he can't get out of bed, so how can he have time for such idle jealousy?"
After hearing this, Jin Xin became even more proud and forgot about everything. When he rode away, he kept looking back at her.
Pang Yu was so angry that he took up his bow and shot several arrows under his horse's hooves, causing the horse to panic and run away.
"That's too much! You are simply a pervert."
Fan Xin couldn't curse, so he threw the letter in his hand at her face, and Pang Yu also used an arrow to attack her fiercely.
She quickly explained, "The two brothers misunderstood, but I actually did."
Qianru coaxed in a low voice, calling the two of them to a quieter place, and then revealed her innermost plan.
"Sister-in-law, do you really care about this?"
Seeing Fan Xin's suspicion and disbelief, Qianru swore to the sky, "By the way, what grade is this guy?"
"He was transferred from the Youwu Guards Army, from the third rank."
"Since he is a third-grade person, why would he dare to go to the half-faced peach blossom to have fun?"
Pang Yu said: "His father, Jin Kui, Minister of War, was once a close confidant of King Gui, and he was also a member of King Gui. Who in the entire capital dares to offend King Gui? Therefore, sister-in-law, your strategy may not be effective!"
Fan Xin also disapproved of her hosting a banquet in person to entertain Jin Xin, for fear of bringing shame to Shangguan Yuan.
Qianru hesitated for a moment, revised her plan, and then told the two of them.
Pang Yu thought it was feasible, but Fan Xin was firmly opposed to it, "What you are doing is tantamount to making my eldest brother fall to King Luo's faction. He will never agree."
"At the celebration banquet, King Luo's faction also testified for Shangguan Yuan. If you couldn't explain it clearly, you couldn't explain it clearly! Even if you can bear the beatings of this guy, I can't bear it. I have to let him appear in this world one by one.
No retribution!"
Pang Yu had long been gnashing his teeth in hatred towards Jin Xin, and the word "villain" on the wooden sign specifically referred to him.
Now that Qianru had taken the initiative, his raging anger was burning out of control.
We are all brothers, how can Fan Xin stand by and watch?
So, he also planned together.
The three acted separately.
Fan Xin went to collect evidence of Jin Xin's violation of military discipline that he had collected, while Pang Yu enlisted the soldiers of Youxiao Guard Camp to write a petition for thousands of people.
Qianru first went to Banmian Peach Blossom to book a private room, and then wrote two flower notes using the names of two popular dancers.
One should be sent to Jin Kui, Minister of the Ministry of War, and the other should be sent to Jin Xin.
The two flower notes were ghostwritten by someone she found in the market, and the person who sent the letter was randomly found on the street, and there was no trace of any relationship with her.
After that, she took a bus to Youxiao Guard Camp to pick up Pang Yu and Fan Xin, and headed to Prince Luo's Mansion together.
The King of Gui returned from his restoration to the throne and vigorously competed with King Luo for power in the court.
King Luo and his wife were worried that they had no handle on King Gui's faction, so the three of them came here, and they also cleverly made a game to wait to catch them.
King Luo was usually expressionless, but Princess Luo Xiao Lian'er couldn't help but beam with joy.
"Since your grievances have been handed over here, the prince will never sit idly by and ignore them. You go back and don't let the news leak out!"
The three of them were about to retreat when Xiao Lian'er hurriedly stopped them, "We must let Jin Kui go too, otherwise it won't be worth the trouble."
Qianru didn't know Jin Kui, she only thought that his son Jin Xin should be able to go.
Xiao Lian'er held her hand and hinted that as long as the right person was invited, Jin Kui would definitely go.
Jin Kui is the minister of the Ministry of War and a close confidant of King Gui. Due to the dual relationship, the person who invites him must be a well-known dancer and singer in the capital.
Right now, among the "Three Beauties in the City", only Zhao Xian'er is still half-faced.
Could it be that Xiao Lian'er was hinting at her?
Qianru was a little hesitant, but thinking about what happened last night, her heart became cold involuntarily.
So, after leaving Prince Luo's Mansion, she specially asked someone to write a flower note and send it to Jin Kui in Zhao Xianer's name.
He was also afraid that Jin Kui would be too old-fashioned and suspicious, so he deliberately asked Fan Xin and Pang Yu to find a way to hold Jin Xin in for a while, but not for too long, otherwise the father and son would not be able to take the bait at the same time.
Get all this ready, it's almost dark.
Qianru hurriedly came to Banmian Peach Blossom to find Zhao Xianer.
There was a scene last night, and Zhao Xianer didn't want to talk to her, but he didn't mean to keep her away from her.
She said a few soft words and complained about the Shangguan family, and Zhao Xianer's attitude towards her improved.
She quickly seized the opportunity and invited Zhao Xian'er to the private room. She enthusiastically ordered a large table of good food and wine and talked about sisterly love with her.
While chatting, the boy came to report to Zhao Xianer: "Jin Kui, the Minister of War, has arrived."
Seeing Zhao Xianer's confused look, Qianru hurriedly smoothed things over, "Maybe I fell in love with your singing, Sister Zhao, during the celebration banquet, and now I come to listen to you again."
The private room with half a peach blossom had been booked long ago, and Zhao Xianer really couldn't find anywhere else to entertain Jin Kui.
Qianru hurriedly and wisely exited, and asked the waiter to remove the drinking utensils and replace them with new ones.
"Good sister, I'll treat you to this meal. Jin Shangshu hasn't been here for a long time. I don't know what kind of wind brought him here today."
"It's okay. We haven't touched the food yet. Sister just used it to entertain Jin Shangshu."
Qianru calmly exited, heading towards the hall, hiding in the dark and watching Jin Kui enter the private room, and then turned around.
I wanted to see if Jin Xin had arrived, but I accidentally bumped into An Qianya wearing servant's clothes and carrying dishes coming out of the private room.
She used this to strike up a conversation with Shopkeeper Tao.
"She is considered 'wasted' and will only be able to do menial work from now on."
Shopkeeper Tao saw her confused face, and her face showed a bit of surprise, as if she should know.
She didn't ask any more questions. When she saw that the dancer Mingzhu whom she had used to seduce Jin Xin under her false name was not on the stage, she went backstage to look for her.
In the name of Zhao Xianer, she led Mingzhu to the waterside pavilion in the inner courtyard to wait there. She was about to order some wine and food to send over when Jin Xin arrived.
Jin Xin thought Qianru was talking to him about Mingzhu's name, so as soon as he came in, he pointed out Mingzhu, and the waiter led him to the waterside pavilion.
This is also Qianru's mistake.
The pearl was as long as a flower and jade. Jin Xin couldn't bear to drive her away, so he sat down and started dancing.
Qianru saw that all the fish had taken the bait, so she calmly retreated.
When she walked out of the peach blossoms, the officers and soldiers lying in ambush nearby swarmed in to arrest her.
She hid in the alley and watched, and found that the police had arrested nine people in total, including Jin Xin but not Jin Kui.
When she was really confused, Jin Kui suddenly appeared behind her.
"What are you looking at?"
She pretended to be scared and pointed tremblingly, "So many officers and soldiers, so many people have been arrested!"
Jin Kui was not aware of the danger at all and muttered: "It's just a formality, it will be released in half an hour!".
Qianru was very familiar with the roads nearby. She went out as if nothing had happened. After passing through the opposite alley, she paid a man to report to the official that Jin Kui had escaped through the back door.
Jin Kui could have escaped, but because he was careless and greedy, he gave back half of his love, and was caught by the officers and soldiers.
It was the first time that such a complicated game was set up, and it was successful. Qian Ruzhi was very satisfied.
When I went back and told Xiangxiang what happened today, Xiangxiang clapped his hands and exclaimed: "It's so happy!"
However, just when they were in high spirits, a violent knock on the door shocked their ears.
