9-3 Family Civil War

9-4 Show off your horse

Zhao Wen was sitting on the chair without showing off, but when she stood up, Peng Jingwei was shocked. She was already tall, and with the high-heeled leather boots, she was 1.8 meters tall, which was far taller than her petite and exquisite figure.

The height of the young lady. Zhao Wen was used to being an emperor, and her movements were full of momentum and power without anger. Peng Jingwei, who had always bullied the weak and feared the strong, took a breath of cold air, couldn't help but take a few steps back, and pushed Liu Mao Mao forward: "Mao Mao,

Come on!"

Liu Mao Mao was not stupid either. Seeing that the other party was tall and powerful, he did not dare to fight. Instead, he meowed and pushed Peng Jingwei forward. Peng Jingwei felt that this was very humiliating. She rolled her eyes and said: "Just make gestures, who knows?"

Who am I to be afraid of, but if I use my fists and kicks, I will inevitably hurt the flowers and plants in the yard, so it is better to find a bright and open place to do it."

Zhao Wen sneered: "It's up to you, you can choose the place."

Peng Jingwei said: "Then go to the open space by Mochou Lake outside the west gate. Bring your people, the monkeys and parrots, and all the friends you can call, so you don't have to say we bully you."

Zhao Wen Bingxue was smart and immediately understood that Peng Jingwei was calling for a group fight with her. She smiled slightly and said, "I don't need you to worry about it, just lead the way."

So Peng Jingwei and Liu Maomao walked in front with a group of generals, and Zhao Wen led a group with royal equipment and followed behind. The two groups left the Marquis Mansion one after another, those who mounted their horses, those who boarded the carriages, and headed towards

As he headed towards the south gate, Liu Fu was so anxious that he flew to fetch Liu Ziguang in person, hoping that Mr. Hou would come back quickly to put an end to this family dispute.

Peng Jingwei always likes to fight in groups and is a veteran. She quietly gave a look to her subordinates, and immediately some people left the team and ran to the Nanchang Yamen to move troops. The second lady was not very popular, and she could not pull down the soldiers of the red shirt regiment.

The fans in Nanchang can still move. When Liu Ziguang was not at home, whenever she needed help, Peng Jingwei would call Sun Gang, the stall owner, and every time she could get a group of big-bodied fans to help her.

Defeat the enemy and win with repeated attempts.

Peng Jingwei's act of sending people to move troops fell into Zhao Wen's eyes. She just snorted contemptuously and hooked her finger. The eunuch in charge came over and listened to the Supreme Emperor's explanation. Then he also sent someone and ran away as fast as he could.

A large group of people walked out of the Shicheng Gate and headed straight for Mochou Lake. The area around Mochou Lake is a famous place for holding large-scale group activities in the capital. The place is bright and spacious, and there are stages, stone benches, etc. Jiangnan Talents

They held poetry and song performances here, and when the gangsters in the arena needed to talk about numbers, they would gather together to "show off their horses" here.

When they arrived at the place, Peng Jingwei asked her men to line up, and the brothers began to kick their legs and stretch their muscles in preparation. In order to show their strength, many people even took off their cotton-padded jackets, revealing their naked upper bodies with thorns, dragons and tigers, in order to intimidate the opponent.

Peng Jingwei and Liu Maomao also took off their fur cloaks, revealing their attire. They held hands with three beasts, Xiao Xiaotian and Tianpeng respectively, and looked with disdain at the group of southerners opposite who were afraid of the cold.

The weather at the end of the first year was still cold. After all, these people from the Song Dynasty were not adapted to the climate of the Central Plains. They dared to take off their fur clothes, so they were at a disadvantage. However, the imperial equipment under Zhao Wen's hands were all

The palace selected top-notch players, expecting that they would not be at a disadvantage in a real fight. So Zhao Wen said: "Have you performed enough? If so, come here and get beaten!"

At this time, the number of both sides was about the same. Peng Jingwei knew that there was no chance of winning in a fight at this time, so she said: "Why are you anxious? If you are beaten, it is not too late to wait for my friends to come before starting the fight."

Zhao Wen sneered and said nothing, folding her arms and waiting to see who Peng Jingwei's reinforcements were. After a while, ten carriages came from the southeast. After arriving, six or seventy Nanchang fans got out of the carriages, each of them

With his sleeves rolled up, his gauze hat tilted, and full of mischief, he was led by Sun Gang, the stall owner of Nachang. Sun Gang, the stall owner, was very loyal to the second lady. He immediately ordered his troops to come after hearing the call. Friends on the capital road told them,

The emphasis is on showing off horses, which is to attract all the friends you can to show your strength to the other party, so as to achieve the effect of defeating others without fighting. Whether they are friends in the world or colleagues in the officialdom, the capital is so big.

It's those people who come and go, and there will always be some overlap between the people called by both sides, so usually a group fight can't start. At critical moments, there will always be some powerful people with wide connections who will come out to smooth things over. Everyone takes a step back and the world is brighter, and then pays for these helpers.

If your friends go out to a restaurant and have a big meal, a dispute will be resolved. Generally speaking, whoever shouts more people means that he has more friends and more money. You will also give more face to others next time you meet them. This can be achieved

Improve one's own reputation.

Since they didn't need to take action, the Nanchang fans didn't bring weapons. They just stood on Peng Jingwei's side with their heads held high, looking at each other with their hands on their hips. Everyone was looking for friends they knew in the other camp so they could pass on the message.

But after looking at it for a long time, I couldn't tell where the other party was coming from. Those muscular men were definitely not from the Capital Road, and they didn't even look like people from the Central Plains. However, judging from the slightly convex temples, they should all be top-notch practitioners. And they were very interested in Nan.

Chang Fanzi's arrival did not show any fear, which is even more surprising.

Sun Datou naturally knew that Liu Ziguang's family had a new wife, but he never expected that the conflicts in the Hou Ye's family would be so sharp, and that there would be a group fight the day before, so he didn't think about that, he just wondered what these people were like.

He asked Peng Jingwei about his identity, "Second Miss, who is this person's background?"

Peng Jingwei said: "Why do you care so much? They are bullying me anyway. If you are afraid, you don't have to help me."

Sun Gang said quickly: "Second Miss, what are you saying? Bullying you is our Nachang, and bullying our Nachang is bullying the Marquis. My subordinates will definitely help you get this face back." He drank a few more glasses of wine at noon, and his mind

I was so dizzy that I didn't think much about it. I just thought that Zhao Wen and the others were the ladies of a feudal official's family or members of the envoy's family of a certain country, so I didn't pay much attention to them.

Since the troops dispatched by both sides do not know each other, there is no possibility of establishing friendship. Since friendship cannot be established, real fighting is inevitable. At present, Peng Jingwei's side has twice as many people as the other side. With the strength of their numbers, the generals and fans

They weighed the sticks in their hands, pinched the knuckles of their fingers, and slowly pushed toward each other.

Zhao Wen remained unmoved, her expression remained unchanged, and with a little finger, the guards behind her came forward without fear. The two sides pressed their chests against their chests, staring with eyes wide open, and began to confront each other.

Liu Fu rode a group of fast horses to the alley where Zeng Cheng lived. He was stopped at the entrance of the alley. When the guard saw that he was the housekeeper of the Marquis' family, he put away the musket in his sleeve and asked: "The housekeeper is here."

What's this?"

Liu Fu said anxiously: "Something happened in the mansion, please inform the Marquis immediately."

The guard said: "Unfortunately, the Marquis has already left. He seems to have gone to the palace to meet the saint."

Liu Fu was so anxious that he jumped on his feet, quickly got on his horse, and drove towards the Meridian Gate. He finally arrived near the Meridian Gate, but was stopped by the imperial guards again. They didn't know what kind of steward he was, so they first pulled off the horse and gave him a beating, and then they finished.

Then he asked: "Who are you? You dare to ride a horse and break into the Meridian Gate without permission." Liu Fu said with a sad face: "I am Liu Fu, the steward of the Zhenwu Marquis Mansion. I have something urgent to report to the Marquis. Please make it convenient for all the military masters to pass the message inside.

A word."

The imperial guards quickly apologized, but there was nothing they could do to bring a message to the palace. The soldiers could only guard the door when they were on duty. Unless someone attacked, they could not disturb the top without permission. Liu Fu was just a housekeeper, not a minister, and there was no

The only person who has the right to hand over the coupons is to wait at the Meridian Gate for the Marquis to come out. Liu Fu was very anxious now and said that if you don't report it, you will be responsible for the death of people in the Marquis's house. Now the Imperial Guards are also afraid.

There happened to be an officer who was about to go on duty, and he promised to pass the message to the imperial guard who was familiar with him, and then asked the imperial guard to pass the message to the eunuch of the inner court, so that the message could be passed to Zhenwuhou. Liu Fu had no choice but to thank him.

The officer was waiting outside the Meridian Gate impatiently.

At this time, the conflict at the Mochou Lake has escalated. The two sides have turned from confrontation to pushing and yelling. The warriors are not weak in martial arts, but they are still not good enough in front of the imperial equipment of the Song Dynasty. They are obviously at a disadvantage in the conflict. Peng Jingwei

He said to Sun Gang: "Why did you bring these few people here instead of calling more people over?" Sun Gang nodded in agreement and sent people back to mobilize troops.

The policeman who dispatched troops had just walked out not far when he happened to meet the city patrol team of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division. The two yamen often cooperated in handling cases and were familiar with each other. He heard from the policeman that there was a group fight by the lake, and the city patrol team

He immediately expressed his intention to go and help with the fist, and hundreds of people with knives and guns crowded around him in a noisy manner.

With the addition of more than a hundred armed soldiers, the situation reversed again. Zhao Wen was surrounded by groups and was about to suffer a loss. Suddenly, there was an explosion and hundreds of people wearing navy uniforms came running from the direction of the Yangtze River Pier in the west.

Soldier, what is in his hand is a blunderbuss with a bayonet installed!

This group of people are wearing uniforms made of navy blue British woolen. The uniforms are decorated with copper buttons and gold epaulettes. They have Fanyang felt hats on their heads and thin fast boots on their feet. One look at the clothes and they know that they are moored on the Yangtze River.

The officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty Navy, a team of 300 sailors, suddenly turned the situation around again, and they had life-killing blunderbuss in their hands. A group fight was considered to be the ultimate.

The sailors from the Song Dynasty surrounded everyone in a semicircle. The soldiers in the front row knelt on one knee, and the soldiers in the back row stood and took aim. Their bright bayonets and black muzzles were pointed at the officers and soldiers of Nanchang Fanzi and Wucheng Army and Horse Division.

An officer shouted: "No one is allowed to move, anyone who moves will be beaten to death!"

Only then did Sun Gang realize that the person who had the conflict with the second lady was a nobleman from the Song Dynasty. Needless to say, she must be the Marquis's new wife. His drunkenness suddenly woke up, and he felt so regretful.

, I should never stand up for the second young lady, now it’s okay, I’ll cause a big trouble.
