"Did he make a condition that you marry him before he would send anyone?" Xiao Qiyue suddenly became angry.
"Stop talking, Brother Qiyue, it all depends on you." Zhang Yingying shrugged her shoulders and sobbed softly with a look of helplessness on her face.
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis will not fall." Xiao Qiyue comforted her gently, looking at the sky with eyes like lightning.
"If you really help us get through this, I will marry you." Zhang Yingying suddenly made a bold statement, her face flushed, she twitched, and her horse galloped away.
"Uh, slow down..." Xiao Qiyue shouted from behind, but Zhang Yingying was still whipping her horse like crazy.
It was only about 12 o'clock in the evening when we returned to Hai'an City, so it was a waste of time.
Seeing that it was not too late, Xiao Qiyue decided to visit Chu Zijiang.
It would be much easier if he was willing to borrow troops.
The guards' identity tokens were there, and the gatekeepers at the Diguan Yamen knew that Xiao Qiyue had a close relationship with Chu Zijiang, so they let him go easily.
The lights in Chu Zijiang's independent courtyard were brightly lit. Xiao Qiyue glanced at it and saw that he seemed to be receiving guests.
The guest is a middle-aged man with long hair, big eyes and thin eyebrows, wearing casual training clothes, and exuding the aura of a superior.
Glancing at the man's head, Xiao Qiyue was secretly surprised. This man was actually a strong man of the 'Xuan Gang Extreme Rank', and there was already a trace of innate energy leaking out of his body.
Moreover, looking at this person's body, Xiao Qiyue was even more shocked.
Because Zhang Yucheng's purple trace lines were actually found on his body. This person is also related to Zhang Yucheng?
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yucheng could reach out so deeply that he could even win over the Black Armor Camp of Diguan.
Xiao Qiyue's heart sank. She originally wanted to come over and borrow troops from Chu Zijiang.
From the looks of it, I'm afraid it won't work.
"Hahaha, Xiao Jinyi came just in time to have a drink together." Chu Zijiang strode to the hall door and greeted him with a smile.
"The wine bug is swarming at the moment and I want to find someone to drink with, so I'm sorry to bother you." Xiao Qiyue smiled and pointed at a small wine gourd hanging on his waist. Naturally, he was already prepared.
"Couldn't it be 'A Hundred Years of Life in Kowloon Bar Club'?" Chu Zijiang asked with a smile.
"Of course, of course, I just borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha." Xiao Qiyue said with a smile.
"Where is the Kowloon Pao?" Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man in the hall immediately stood up and asked excitedly.
"Shiwei Xiao brought it, Lord Bai, you are in for a treat." Chu Zijiang did not explain that the wine was given to him by himself.
"Oh, it seems that I arrived in time, Mr. Bai." Mr. Bai swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a greedy look on his face.
However, the 'popularity' on the head turned into a human face, with a shocked expression.
Out of the corner of his eye, he was secretly looking at Xiao Qiyue, and Xiao Qiyue understood.
Chu Zijiang did not explain, but it turned out that he wanted to use the wine to enhance his status.
After all, it is definitely not easy for people to have the "Nine-Dragon Bubble of a Hundred Years' Life".
That wine is definitely not something that a small seventh-level guard can get, and it will remind people that this person has the support of important people behind him.
Because this wine is specially provided by the royal family.
It is specially brewed for self-drinking, and the output is very small. The output of the Dachu royal family is only a few hundred jars a year.
Unless the ministers and generals below have made great achievements, they will not have this blessing.
Not to mention a sixth-grade Jinyi household chief, even the third- and fourth-grade officials in the province may not have the opportunity to come into contact with this wine.
"Guard Xiao, this is Mr. Bai Tingsheng, the guard of our Diguan garrison camp." Chu Zijiang introduced with a smile.
"Xiao Qiyue has met Lord Guard." Xiao Qiyue bowed his hand.
"Young guard Xiao, you're welcome. Let's sit down and get the wine out quickly. The wine bug in Bai's belly is about to rebel." Bai Shouwei urged, looking like a starving ghost reincarnated.
After pouring a glass for everyone, Bai Shouwei smelled it again and again, and even stuck out his tongue and licked it indecently. He closed his eyes with an intoxicated look on his face. After a long time, he opened his eyes, exhaled a rough breath, and praised.
, "It's really a good wine! It still tastes the same."
"Master Guards has drank before." Chu Zijiang said with a smile.
"I was lucky enough to taste it once at the Admiral's house the year before last. It was just a small cup, and the aftertaste was endless." Bai Shoubei stretched out his thumb and gestured. It should be a sip of liquor.
Is this wine really that expensive?
Xiao Qiyue expressed doubts. Isn't this admiral too stingy?
"The Admiral accompanied the general to conquer the Qin Kingdom many years ago. He narrowly escaped death and received royal rewards, including a pound of 'Nine Dragon Bubbles of a Hundred Years' Life.'
No matter how many generals you have on guard, your Excellency, it’s good to be able to get a finger cup.
I guess you are still heartbroken, right?" Chu Zijiang smiled and looked at Xiao Qiyue, meaning don't underestimate this wine, it's precious.
Being so close, Xiao Qiyue even smelled Zhang Yucheng's breath left on Bai Shoubei's body.
Although this kind of smell will gradually disappear over time, under the eyes of cause and effect, the trace lines and human smell will never disappear, just like being branded with chrome iron.
An hour later, Bai Shoubei left.
"Is it convenient to talk here?" Xiao Qiyue's face became serious.
"Follow me." Chu Zijiang took Xiao Qiyue into the underground training chamber.
"This Bai Shoubei probably has something to do with Mr. Hou's cousin Zhang Yucheng." Xiao Qiyue got straight to the point.
"What's so strange about that? In the officialdom, people have relationships with many parties. The Marquis is our overlord in Hai'an, and we all have to make a living in his hands. It is necessary to have good relationships." Chu Zijiang must have misunderstood.
"No, the death of Magistrate Gu involves too much..." Xiao Qiyue originally didn't want to tell the story about the Marquis, but now he changed his mind.
This is a great opportunity for Chu Zijiang. If he can take the opportunity to defeat Bai Tingsheng, then Chu Zijiang will have the opportunity to take over this defensive position.
"Is there still such a thing?" Chu Zijiang was shocked.
Xiao Qiyue didn't say anything. He stretched out his finger and turned it on the table. Suddenly, the rose appeared again - Xihe.
"I didn't expect that Bai Tingsheng was so courageous that he interfered in the affairs of the Marquis' family in order to get promoted.
This matter is quite difficult. From your analysis, it seems that Zhang Yucheng has completely ignored Mr. Hou.
Even if we want to take action, we can't save the situation.
Brother Qiyue, I think you should leave Hai'an for a while after the game tomorrow." Chu Zijiang actually didn't want to get involved in this matter. After all, this matter is a matter of internal fighting within the Houye family.
Bumping in rashly is very likely to get angry. As for who will be the marquis, that is not important to Chu Zijiang.
"Brother Zijiang, life is about gambling!
Although on the surface we appear to be at a disadvantage, there seems to be no hope of a comeback.
However, there are variables in many things.
Moreover, your uncle is here and you can borrow his power." Xiao Qiyue's eyes were firm.
Of course, Xiao Qiyue didn't reveal anything about Mi Qiutu, so this kind of thing could only rot in his own stomach.
