After going to court, although Tang Chao felt a little unhappy, after all, Li Linfu and he were dealing with a common enemy. Now Zhangchou Jianqiong's move had indeed had the effect of predicting the enemy's plans, but after this After the first battle, Nanzhao will definitely not give up. With Nanzhao's current strength, Zhangchou Jianqiong may be in danger. When the time comes, Li Linfu will definitely give him a loophole in sending reinforcements without thinking too much. After all, things are already like this. If he tries to frame Zhangchou Jianqiong now, he will definitely be seen as a big joke. He killed so many people in Nanzhao and presented the prisoners to the court. If he still colludes with Li Gesang, then The sacrifices made by Nanzhao's cruel plan were too great, and no one believed it.

The Tang Dynasty had a relatively complete system in the army. The messengers reported back one after another. It was not just one person who came back and reported the matter, but there was a supervision system. Zhangchou Jianqiong had just been appointed as the military governor, and he could not dominate the army with one hand. , to come back and report victory like this, it must be a great victory, no doubt about it.

Hehe, I can’t help but feel moved when I think of Yang Guozhong’s advice to me to meet Zhangchou Jianqiong. If Lang Zhengxuan really faced off against such a fierce general as Zhangchou Jianqiong, I’m afraid it would be difficult to defeat him strategically. In the end I'm afraid it's better to use force. Even if Zhangchou Jianqiong is defeated, the losses will definitely be huge. Moreover, there is no guarantee that the reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty will support Zhang Jun. Moreover, the generals of the vassal town like Gao Xianzhi are now suppressed by Li Linfu, so there is no guarantee that they will not send troops to support. , by then, Nanzhao might not even be able to defeat Zhangchou Jianqiong, let alone occupy Jiannan, expand its territory, and wipe out the Tang Dynasty.

Damn it, do you really want to go see Zhangchou Jianqiong with this guy Yang Guozhong?

Hehe, I suddenly thought of Yang Guozhong being appointed by Zhangchou Jianqiong to give Yang Yuhuan a heavy gift. Zhangqiu was so clever. He knew that Yang Guifei was a great supporter, so he spent huge sums of money to make friends with her. However, he never expected that Yang Guozhong would also be a great traitor in the future. , you asked him to do things, just to make this boy rich so that he can have sex with his old lover, Mrs. Guo Guo, and then gamble and have fun.

In fact, Yang Guozhong was sincerely working for Zhangchou Jianqiong at this time, and he wanted to serve as a glorious official in the court like his two cousins ​​through his relationship with his old lover, Mrs. Guo Guo.

Just when the Tang Dynasty returned from the end of the dynasty, Yang Guozhong suddenly came out of the middle of the street and raised his hand to greet Zhuan Xin.

Zhuan Xin naturally knew that this was the brother of Mrs. Guo Guo and that he was the cousin of Concubine Yang. He could not afford to offend such a person. If he were not careful, he might become a prominent official and cause trouble to the Tang Dynasty. But Not for fun.

Tang Chao had also seen him a long time ago, with a smile on his face, cupping his fists and saying, "Master Yang, please come up."

Yang Guozhong was eager for these words, and with a flick of his legs, he came to Tang Chao's car. He didn't be polite to him, sat down, and said haha: "Brother Zhuan, please drive to Yunjin Tower, little one." I have a few words of confidence to tell you, Mr. Tang,"

Huh, Tang Chao sneered. What news did this boy Nineteenth Detective hear? Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to me in such a hurry. But he really wanted to taste the food and wine there. When he kidnapped Li Linfu to negotiate last time, even though he ate I have a few chopsticks, but I am eating without knowing the taste. After all, it is a matter between life and death. Now is the time.

In less than a cup of tea, we arrived at Yunjin Tower and the three of us came upstairs.

Normally, as long as he was not going to court or the harem, Zhuan Xin would follow Tang Chao every step of the way. It had become a habit.

Just halfway through, a man wearing Lou Jin's flower sleeves and arrows suddenly grabbed Yang Guozhong and squinted his drunken eyes: "Hey, aren't you Yang Xiaoqian? Why are you here?"

As he spoke, he put down a chicken in his hand. This chicken was in a cage. It had bright red combs and bloodshot eyes. It flapped its wings and looked like it wanted to fly out. I guess this was the fighting cock that the emperor liked.

This man didn't care that this was a place of high society, he just punched him with a strong force, and he had some foundation in martial arts. He was not an ordinary gangster on the street.

But Yang Guozhong sneered, stretched out two fingers to hold his fist, and said with a smile: "Wang Hu, you must be drunk."

Others didn't care much and just wanted to watch the fun, but in the eyes of Tang Chao and Zhuan Xin, they were extremely surprised. Such effortless martial arts was not inferior to me, and they felt some admiration in their hearts. .

Wang Hu shouted: "Take it out, take out the money you won from me yesterday,"

Tang Chao and Zhuan Xin looked at each other and smiled, this guy was drunk.

The place where they had their dispute was between the stairs on the second and third floors of Yunjin Tower. Such a quarrel immediately attracted many people watching the excitement upstairs and downstairs due to the prosperity of the first restaurant in the capital.

"I'm willing to admit defeat. Since you lost the money to me, why should I give it to you?" Yang Guozhong was very patient and seemed to be very well-educated. Anyone could see that his martial arts was far superior to that of Wang Hu. But she didn't bully him into being drunk, but confronted him politely.

"Yang Xiaoqian, you are playing a trick, do you think I, Wang Hu, have been taken advantage of?" the man roared.

Yang Guozhong's face suddenly turned blue: "Brother Wang, it's okay if you come to me to mess with you when you lose, but you can't make nonsense of me, Yang Guozhong, who is a cheat in gambling. Although I have just come to the capital and am not a big figure, I will treat this person like this." Reputation is taken very seriously. If you don't take back the words 'Yang Xiaoqian' today, I won't be able to let you go."

As soon as he finished saying this, Wang Hu screamed like he was killing a pig: "Ah,"

The sound was shrill and shrill, as if a steel needle had suddenly pierced his bone marrow.

However, it is just a steel needle.

Yang Guozhong held his chest and lifted his back, and the finger holding Wang Hu suddenly flexed and stretched, and then, sweat dripped down from the back of Wang Hu's hand.

At this time, Wang Hu let out a shrill scream.

Dark energy.

These two words flashed through Tang Chao and Zhuan Xin's minds at the same time.

Indeed, the method Yang Guozhong used to punish Wang Hu just now was indeed a secretly hurtful method. Outsiders didn't know it, but they saw that Yang Guozhong didn't move or lift his legs. He just pinched Wang Hu with his fingers and killed him like a pig. Everyone screamed, and they were all shocked. He actually used only three fingers to control the "Chicken White Hope" that everyone in the capital was afraid of. It was really extraordinary.

-------------------------------------------------- ----------

Now Gao Lishi has five workshops under his command, which are dedicated to helping the emperor collect eagles, chickens, dogs, harriers, crickets and other playthings, and they are dedicated to their task. Many of them are stubborn people, and they often forcefully buy other people's goods worth tens of thousands for less than ten thousand. There is no difference between grabbing something and grabbing it openly, it is called "white hope", which means that if the old man likes your thing, you just give it to him and watch him take it away in vain. People like Wang Hu who gamble and drink, Taking advantage of others by clever means seems to be the exclusive domain of the Baiwangs.

Last night, Yang Guozhong became addicted to gambling, so he went to the palace market to find a gambling hall and started playing. In fact, Yang Guozhong first came to the capital and didn't understand the rules in the capital. Generally, formal gambling was in Wasi. Among them, a few prostitutes were called, the loser took the girl to find a sweet dream, the winner asked the girl to read the cards and give her a massage, and the shopkeeper took a cent, just like the Tang Dynasty traveled to a teahouse to give money to the cards, and , there is an upper limit for winning or losing, usually ten thousand taels of silver, but the place where Yang Guozhong went last night was a big place for people, dragons and snakes mixed together. Many princes, nobles and eunuchs were gambling there, and the amount was huge. It is shocking, and there are frequent fights. No one without a good balance dares to take the stage. Moreover, in the palace market, there are people like Bai Wang like Wang Hu and Shence Duwei Ma Zhengzhang, who are the leaders. The people who supported him were naturally lawless, and there were many things he did to kill people and ruin things. Yesterday, Yang Guozhong, a foreigner, won money from a careless man. Now that he saw it, his old bully temper broke out, and he naturally refused to give up.

The Tang Dynasty was also frightened when he saw such a posture. Even if I go there, I am afraid that other than this, there is no better way to control this king tiger. Moreover, it is obvious at a glance that this king tiger has practiced martial arts and is different from ordinary people. A gangster like Yang Guozhong can do it himself by concentrating all his strength on his fingers and hurting someone like a needle, but he can't do it as lightly as he does.

After thinking about this, I became wary. Looking at this guy's Qing Kung, I thought his martial arts was on par with mine, but I didn't expect that his An Jin Kung Fu was already so powerful.

Wang Hu suffered this finger and suffered heart-wrenching pain in his bone marrow. He knew that his meridians had been injured. If he remained stubborn, his life might be in danger. He had no choice but to struggle away, not even leaving the fighting cock lying on the ground. It was obviously to Ma Zhengzhang. Filed a complaint.

Yang Guozhong ignored him and smiled slightly at Tang Chao and Zhuan Xin: "Haha, this villain doesn't know anything else but likes to gamble with both hands. Offending such a person will make you two laugh."

"No, no, my younger brother is so impressed by Brother Yang's martial arts."

The three of them immediately went upstairs and sat down in the Qi Chu Pavilion next to the window. The shopkeeper's name was Li Qingxiang. She was graceful and outstanding in appearance. She used to be the number one in Liyuan in Beijing, but now she is in her mid-thirties. It was no longer popular, so she opened a Yunjin Restaurant. With her influence at that time and the fact that she had made friends with many high-ranking officials, and she paid attention to looking for talents, the more girls the better. , and they are all top-notch women. After being trained by her as a nanny, they have a deep understanding of how to serve men, making this place become the number one restaurant in the capital.

Most of the people who come here come from wealthy families, and there are many dignitaries. Of course, what they value is the exquisite food and wine here, but more importantly, the girls here are different from other places.

Yang Guozhong had a lot of money these days, so he had the confidence to gamble everywhere. Now when he went to Yunjin Tower, in order to earn face, he ordered a table full of food and drinks, and also specially called three girls, all of whom were red cards in Yunjin Tower. All he does is show off his generosity so that he can gain a reputation in the capital in the future.

What kind of person is Li Qingxiang? One look at Yang Guozhong's demeanor, and you can tell that he is the kind of person who spends a lot of money. Look at the Tang Dynasty next to him, but today's Huangmen Minister, both of them are extremely talented, with professionalism on their faces. Lang smiled: "Oh, Mr. Yang, if you can make friends with people like Mr. Tang, you are really on a high branch. Mr. Tang, come here, Yanzi, give me a toast,"

This Yanzi is sixteen or seventeen years old, with a head full of pearls and green hair, extremely beautiful appearance, and an excellent player in playing, playing and singing. He is the top star of Yunjin Tower and would not come out to meet guests. Hearing this, he immediately poured a glass of wine and presented it with both hands. The jade fingers are like spring onions, the eyes are like autumn water, and it is a clear picture of a beauty holding a cup.

Tang Chao's heart was immediately a little drunk. Although this woman was not as beautiful as my Lian'er, she was gentle and amiable. He drank the glass of wine with lust and touched her jade fingers. I feel my heart is slippery.

The woman's face immediately turned red, and she flashed a shyness like Qiuxiang: "Master Tang, this little girl only sells her art, not her body. Please respect yourself."

"Yes, I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself just now," Tang Chao smiled awkwardly.

Li Qingxiang pretended to be coquettish and scolded Yan Zi: "Yan'er, Mr. Tang knows the rules. He didn't do it on purpose just now. Don't worry about it like this, okay?"

"Yes," Yanzi nodded, smiled gently at Tang Chao, and Li Qingxiang went down gracefully.

Tang Chao didn't believe it in his heart. Damn it, these two women were singing together. They thought I didn't know. They just wanted me, Tang Chao, to pay a big price to buy this girl's first night. Humph, she's still a baby bird now. Of course, you are the top one. Once your health is broken, I am afraid that you will have to get a red card. With this appearance, it is indeed very possible. As long as I am willing to spend a lot of money to support you, do you want to be popular? All difficult.

Zhuan Xin really disliked women and refused. Yang Guozhong was so happy that he hugged two gorgeous red cards. He kissed one on the left and one on the right, tut-tutting, which made the Tang Dynasty envious to death. Looking at Yanzi's mouth, Yanzi smiled at him, with a charming charm, which immediately fascinated Tang Chao. It's better to be more gentle like this. A girl like Yanzi can truly be friends and talk to each other. That kind of person.

"Haha, Mr. Tang, let's talk about the business slowly. Look at me, two red cards are worth one red card, right?"

Tang Chao smiled and nodded, but did not speak. He looked at Yanzi with affection in his eyes, and it was obvious that he meant what he said. Yanzi from Fengyuechang naturally understood what Tang Chao meant, responded with a gentle smile, and put his little hand into Tang Chao's hand. , all this is self-evident.

Zhuan Xin was very bored with everything and just ate the delicacies on the table.

Well, this woman seems to have taken a liking to me, Tang Chao thought in a daze.

-------------------------------------------------- ---------------

In fact, the rules of Datang Restaurants are almost like this. The top card is a place, which must be decent in appearance and good in all aspects. Otherwise, it will ruin the brand of the restaurant. The red card is for sleeping with guests, coquettish and beautiful. **, so it was illegal to touch someone in Tang Dynasty, but it was okay to kiss someone in Yang Guozhong. The difference between them is here.

But what frightened Tang Chao was why Yanzi gave her hand to him. This was a huge risk. If he didn't like her, her future value would probably not drop a lot.

This is the unwritten law of the Tang Dynasty. Once the things to be sold are carried by others, the price will be greatly affected.

At this moment, there was a noise in the stairs, and a strong man rushed upstairs. Li Qingxiang couldn't stop him. Tang Chao and the other three stopped eating and drinking together and looked at the person coming.

I saw this man in his thirties, with slightly bulging temples, followed by more than a dozen tough figures, all dressed in black clothes, revealing his black and furry chest. The Tang Dynasty could clearly see that the person leading it was the one in the capital. Everyone was afraid of Ma Zhengzhang, the commander of the imperial army. It was said that he was brave enough to be worthy of all men. He was Gao Lishi's personal lackey and obeyed Gao Lishi's command in everything. The Tang Dynasty already knew him when he kidnapped Li Linfu.

Seeing such a person, Tang Chao did not dare to neglect, and stood up quickly: "Master Ma is here. Tang is honored to have a drink with him."

Here, Yan Zi had already filled up the wine and sent Tang Chao to Ma Zhengzhang.

Ma Zhengzhang originally looked like he was looking for trouble, but when he saw Tang Chao's move, he had no choice but to catch his drink, drink it in one gulp, and said: "Master Tang Chao, I have always admired your talent. I’m the Huangmen’s Minister, but please don’t worry about this matter today, okay?”

With the cleverness of the Tang Dynasty, when he saw the Wang Hu standing in the corner who had been beaten before, he already knew why Ma Zhengzhang was here, and quickly said: "Okay, Xiaguan and Mr. Yang are also friends for the first time, so naturally they are just watching from the sidelines."

Damn, for a traitor like Yang Guozhong, it's best to let Ma Zhengzhang kill him here, so as to rewrite the history of the Tang Dynasty. Hey, maybe I will travel through this time. With a wave of my hand, the history of the Tang Dynasty It has to change. Whether it can develop as recorded in history depends on my happiness, and my grandma's. Why should I support you, a gambler like Yang Guozhong?

Yang Guozhong naturally knew the boss of the Forbidden Army, but when he saw him wearing this casual clothes, he immediately knew that he wanted to know about this matter in private. He let go of the two girls around him and said, "I, Yang Guozhong, have met Lord Ma." As he spoke, he cupped his fists and saluted, looking neither humble nor arrogant.

Ma Zhengzhang didn't expect this kid to be so calm, so he had to be polite first and then attack. He cupped his fists and said straight to the point: "Hey, kid, you gambled and played pranksters and beat my brother-in-law. Since you claim to be powerful in martial arts, I will come today." I'll meet you, Wang Hu, and give him the life and death document. Mine has already been signed. Just ask him to make a pledge."

Yang Guozhong suddenly realized that there was no way Wang Hu dared to be so lawless. It turned out that he had such a strong backing. To deal with a person like himself, there was no need to use his authority in the Forbidden Army. He could just solve the problem by himself. Look at him. With this attitude, he will definitely beat me to death. He is also familiar with this life and death document.

Wang Hu walked over with a resentful look on his face and handed Yang Guozhong a life and death document on yellow rice paper. The pen and ink had already been prepared.

Yang Guozhong immediately knew that Ma Zhengzhang's martial arts skills were much higher than his own. Just by looking at his eyes, he knew that he was gleaming and powerful. If he practiced martial arts diligently, he would be as good as this kid, but he could only eat and drink by himself. Whoring and gambling have ruined martial arts. Taking action at this time is no different from committing suicide, but you don't take the pen in Wang Hu's hand.

Wang Hu laughed contemptuously: "Why, I don't dare to answer it,"

More than a dozen people behind Ma Zhengzhang laughed together.

Yang Guozhong smiled and said: "Master Ma, I think you have misunderstood. However, it doesn't matter if you kill me now. But in the blink of an eye, my sister knows about it. I'm afraid your glory and wealth will be ruined from now on, and your head, I’m afraid I’ll have to follow him too,”

Ma Zhengzhang was stunned for a moment. Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, he said, "Please sign up. There are really not many people in the capital who dare to confront me, Ma Zhengzhang."

What he said was true. No matter how many bad things Wang Hu did outside, when others heard that he was his brother-in-law, they would not dare to offend him. Not only ordinary people did not dare to offend him, but even ordinary princesses and princesses would not dare to offend him. He would politely call him "Master Ma". After all, not to mention his martial arts, even his status was extremely high in the palace.

"Haha, I am Yang Yuhuan's cousin. I brought him up since he was a child. I came to the capital this time at her invitation."

As soon as a few words were said, countless people both upstairs and downstairs in Yunjin Tower heard it and immediately became silent. Not long ago, Yang Yuhuan's two cousins ​​were awarded senior officials. Apparently it was because the emperor loved Yang Yuhuan. See This Yang Guozhong looks dignified and speaks with dignity. I'm afraid he may not be lying.

With three slaps, Wang Hu was beaten so hard that he rolled downstairs.

Ma Zhengzhang turned around and put on a forced smile on his face: "Haha, isn't this a flood rushing into the Dragon King Temple? One family doesn't know the other, it must be a misunderstanding. Mr. Yang, I apologize to you. Come and drink this cup,"

I saw Ma Zhengzhang grabbing the tin wine pot on the table. With a little movement in his hand, the wine shot like an arrow into Yang Guozhong's wine glass seven or eight feet away. But strangely, not a trace of the wine was spilled. , Anyone who knows things like Tang Dynasty knows that this is purely a force of true energy that presses the wine in the pot, causing it to suddenly shoot out. Otherwise, the wine itself does not have legs, and it cannot naturally run into other people's cups. , that is when martial arts reaches the peak of dark strength, and the meridians throughout the body are full of true energy. Not to mention pouring wine like this, it is also possible to use true energy to help people heal their injuries.

I saw him filling up the wine in Tang Chao and Zhuan Xin's glasses. Suddenly he put away the wine pot. The four glasses were full of wine, but not a drop of wine came out. However, he was not full. Breathless, as if strolling in the courtyard, he said: "Master Tang and this expert brother have disturbed your enjoyment of drinking, and I apologize together."

Yang Guozhong and the other three people were so shocked by his martial arts that they all raised their glasses and drank.

I saw Ma Zhengzhang tilted his neck to drink the wine and said: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Chapter completed!
