At this time, Chen Hua was already seventy percent drunk. After listening to Shi Heng's words, he shook his head and replied: "Although my martial arts skills are mediocre, I have never encountered an enemy with my ancient sword in the world. Although Eunuch Cao
His martial arts skills are unparalleled, he is invincible in the world, and there are many masters in the palace, but how can he personally deal with the young people? I am not boasting, but if someone comes to Cao Mansion to cause trouble, even if he has wings, he will never walk out of this house alive. "
One conversation made Shi Heng feel reassured, and he secretly thought that Cao Shaoqin really knew people.
In fact, when it comes to martial arts, he also boasts that he has few opponents in the world, but as this old man said, a loyal duke and a prince of the dynasty cannot end up fighting an assassin, right? There is no need to lose his identity.
However, he didn't have many masters in his family, so he finally managed to recruit Wu Xi, a top master in the world, but in the end he couldn't even catch a female assassin.
He launched the coup to seize the door, killed Yu Qian, and promoted some of his losers to high positions. He knew deeply that there were many potential enemies, and he didn't know when uninvited guests would visit again.
Besides, adding elegance to the banquet is only a trivial matter. Enjoying life safely is much more important. So he smiled and said to Chen Hua: "I'm afraid my wine is better than Eunuch Cao's.
You can also go to my house and have a few bowls in your free time, what do you think?"
Cao Shaoqin knew in his heart that the agreement he had reached with Shi Heng had taken effect. He could command Dongchang, launch the impeachment of Yang Yuxuan, the Minister of War, and lead Zhou Huai'an to kill him. By then, under the Great Tomorrow, inside and outside the court, they would
People can then sit back and relax.
So he smiled and said to Shi Heng: "This Mr. Chen's drinking capacity is really amazing. He has only been here a few days, and he has eaten most of the good wine in the cellar. We don't have much good wine for him to eat. Mr. Guo
If you don’t mind, let him go to the Duke’s mansion and become a wine fairy from now on!”
Shi Heng said with a smile: "I have to thank Eunuch Cao for his kindness! It's just that a gentleman never takes away someone's love. I'm just letting Mr. Chen stay in my house for a few days. I will definitely send Mr. Chen back to my house in the future."
The two looked at each other and laughed together.
The officials next to me were watching their noses and their hearts, and did not dare to say anything more.
In fact, everyone understands that on the surface it seems that they are just transferring a retainer, but in fact the two of them may have reached an agreement.
So Chen Hua originally sought refuge with Cao Shaoqin in order to become a dragon and a phoenix. Now that he has gone to the Duke's Mansion, how can he not be happy in his heart?
After all, the Duke of Wei in Jinling, the Duke of England in Beijing, etc. are all hereditary first-class high-ranking sects. Duke Shi Heng and Shi Guogong are deeply trusted by the emperor. Maybe he can also be passed down to the Duke and the Duke, and he can enjoy the fine wine for many years.
So after the banquet was over, he happily followed Shi Heng. From that day on, he became Shi Heng's guest.
But on this day, Chen Hua saw that Wu Xi was so angry that he rushed across the courtyard with Shi Xiao. He secretly laughed in his heart: "This boy must have encountered something unlucky. Otherwise, why would his nostrils turn upwards suddenly disappear?"
?" Then I thought again: I just want to see his jokes, and I'm afraid the relationship will be ruined, so I might as well follow him secretly. If he is in any emergency, I can help him with a little trick.
I will also be able to gain a foothold in the Duke's Mansion in the future...
When Chen Hua came to Shi Mansion, Shi Heng treated him like a distinguished guest. Wu Xi naturally felt awkward when he saw him, so he was picky about Chen Hua in every possible way. When he heard that he claimed to be one hundred and eighty years old, he was even more dismissive.
Chen Hua is also an old man. When he saw Wu Xi's expression, he knew that people didn't take him seriously. So although Wu Xi was sarcastic, he had to pretend not to hear. After all, he was new here, so he could only flatter him and try to change him.
Only by gaining his favor can we gain a firm foothold here, so I thought of secretly helping him.
So Chen Hua secretly followed Wu Xi and Shi Xiao all the way to the alley outside the Flower Market Street. He saw a young man stopping Wu Xi and drawing two semicircles on the ground, trapping Wu Xi. Wu Xi mistakenly thought he was
The poor boy was having fun with him, but Chen Hua, who was hiding around the corner, was secretly surprised: This was clearly the magic of "drawing the ground to create a prison"! This young man didn't even use a sword, he just picked up a dead branch on the ground.
If you can perform this technique, that would be awesome!
Chen Hua looked at Wu Xi, who was really circling in the circle. No matter what, he couldn't go out again.
For a moment, the young man and Shi Xiao disappeared. Chen Hua waddled out of the alley, drew out his sword, drew twice on the line drawn by Feng Zhou with the tip of the sword, and pulled Wu Xi out!
Wu Xi felt completely different inside! First he heard a bang and saw half of the surrounding high walls collapse. Then he saw Chen Hua, the new sorcerer in the house, waving his sword with all his strength, and with just one blow, he returned the siege.
He split half of the wall foundation and stretched out a hand to pull him out.
Wu Xi felt grateful in his heart, bowed his hand to Chen Hua, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chen, for the rescue."
Chen Hua laughed and said: "It's just a trivial matter, nothing worth mentioning."
As he spoke, he put the sword into its sheath.
Wu Xi had something on his mind and had no time to elaborate. He cupped his hands to Chen Hua and said, "I still have some urgent matters. I'll say goodbye to the old gentleman when I get back to the house!" After saying that, he turned around and left.
Wu Xi arrived at Flower Market Street and saw a sea of people inside from a distance. He approached, separated from the crowd and went in. He saw his brother inside shouting at the top of his lungs:
"...My shopkeeper Wu's surname is Wu Mingye, and he is known as the 'Iron Abacus'. In the past, I saw that the business of my neighbor 'Ruixianghao' was going well, and I felt angry. I have a younger brother named Wu Xi, who was an official in the Wuqinghou Mansion. One day
When he came to my place and heard me say that the Ruixiang No. had good feng shui, he said, 'What's so difficult about this! The Ruixiang No. from my Baowang shopkeeper went into my brother's hands smoothly..."
When Wu Xi heard this, his head buzzed, and he rushed forward and shouted to his brother: "What are you talking about?"
Iron Abacus seemed not to have seen her and continued to shout: "He came up with an idea and asked me to secretly find a pair of fake gold bracelets in the workshop, mark them with the Ruixiang number, and also forge a Ruixiang number.
, Wu Xi asked Butler Fang from Wuqinghou Mansion to put on luxurious clothes and come to the Ruixiang..."
Wu Xi went up to pull him, and Iron Abacus swung his hand. He didn't know when his skinny monkey-like brother had learned martial arts, but now he had strong internal strength and almost knocked Wu Xi down.
Seeing his brother open his mouth and say something, Wu Xi covered his mouth with his right hand and hugged him with his left hand, trying to force him in. Unexpectedly, Tie Abacus shook his whole body and knocked Wu Xi away. He took a few steps back and lost his blood.
Condensate.
At this time, Wu Ye, the iron abacus, still did not stop and shouted: "As soon as I heard that Wu Xi's idea was good, I said..."
Wu Xi was anxious and was about to use force. At this moment, someone patted him on the back. When he turned around, he saw that it was Chen Hua.
"Get out of the way and look at me!"
Before he finished speaking, the sword came out of its sheath with a "swish" sound.
Wu Xi was startled, and then thought to himself: "In that case, let's kill him!"
But Chen Hua slowly placed the sword on top of the iron abacus, leveled it, and patted it gently.
With just such a shot, Tie Abacus suddenly woke up and looked around. He didn't know when so many people had gathered around him: "What are you looking at?"
He looked at Wu Xi again, with a strange look on his face, and said, "Brother, when did you come here?"
