Chapter six hundred and ninety-first cowardice
Outside the Blood Shadow Hall of Prince Pingxi, Yin Quan stood proudly with his hands behind his back. Behind Yin Quan was Cheng Jijia, the master of the Blood Shadow Hall. Surrounded by a group of Blood Shadow Hall warriors wearing crimson arrow sleeves, black boots and holding wild goose feather swords, one
They are like facing a powerful enemy. Among the warriors of the Blood Shadow Hall, there are three capable women wearing green arrow sleeves. The front and back of the green arrow sleeves are embroidered with three red butterflies. These three people are from the Blood Shadow Hall.
Butterfly Envoy. There is also a man wearing dark blue arrow sleeves, who is extremely heroic. The bats with red mouths embroidered on the front and back of the arrow sleeves are none other than the Bat Envoys of the Blood Shadow Hall.
Opposite the killers of the Blood Shadow Hall, there were several people standing. One of them was an old monk, holding an iron Zen staff. His face was like an ancient moon in three autumns. He had a kind face and kind eyes, white beard and hair, and an indifferent expression. He was the master of Tongshengshan Zizai.
Old monk Pu Xuan of the temple. To the left of old monk Pu Xuan, stood a tall man carrying a single sword. He was about fifty years old. He was dressed like a rich man in a brown brocade robe, with thick eyebrows, big eyes and three wisps of beard.
His beard fluttered across his chest, and his left hand twirled two iron guts.
On the right hand side of the old monk Pu Xuan is a young man of about 20 years old. He is above average in appearance and has dark skin. He also carries a single sword on his back and glares at Yin Quan. Beside the young man stands a rough-looking man.
A northern man, about thirty years old, holding a big iron rod as tall as one person, dressed in the style of people from the northern Liaoning area, wearing a shabby sheepskin robe and a dog-skin hat. On this spring day on the Southwest Road, this outfit
It seemed quite nondescript, and this man also glared at Yin Quan.
On the far right is a middle-aged monk. This monk is tall and dark-skinned. He is wearing a vermilion cassock and monk shoes. A long string of black sandalwood beads hangs around his neck. He has a peaceful face, half-closed eyes, and hands.
There was a string of purple rosary beads spinning in his hand, and he was muttering sutras in his mouth. He looked like an incomprehensible outsider, and people couldn't help but look at him a few times.
Yin Quan looked at Pu Xuan and smiled, "Old Zen Master, last year you broke into my palace and took away a woman. I gave you enough face. Today you came to my palace to make trouble again. It's obvious that you didn't
Take this king seriously! Old Zen Master, you are going too far! Moreover, I heard that you recently became a guest of Prince Wei’s Mansion. Is this a thing? Last year, I worked hard to persuade you to stay, and I wanted to ask the old Zen Master to do it.
The old Zen master refuses to offer an offering to the prince’s palace! What’s the point of this?”
Pu Xuan laughed, and lightly tapped the ground with the iron Zen staff in his hand. The gray stone tiles on the ground suddenly cracked into the texture of a turtle's back, "Your Majesty, I was still wandering around last year and was uneasy, so I couldn't stay here. This year
I made up my mind and accepted the warm invitation from King Wei Qiansui. I had no choice but to decide to stay in King Wei's mansion and become a guest. Everything is determined by fate, so why should the prince care?"
Yin Quan laughed loudly, and when he had laughed enough, he clapped his hands and said with a sinister smile: "Old Zen Master, you don't tell lies when you become a monk. You, a monk, are really dishonest! Alas, it is really damaging to the Holy Mountain.
The reputation of Zizai Temple! Since the old Zen master came to your door today, why don’t you introduce to me who these friends around you are? Later, if we both turn against each other and start fighting, it is inevitable that there will be casualties, including me.
Wouldn't it be a beautiful thing to let my men dig your graves and erect monuments?"
Pu Xuan held the Zen staff in his right hand and twirled his beard with his left hand. He smiled and said: "Prince Pingxi, what you said is a bit unpleasant. We are guests from afar. It's fine if you don't welcome us. Why do you have to fight and kill us?"
The rich man on my left is nicknamed Northern Sword Sage Zhu Jiafu. This kid’s surname is Cheng Zifei. He is a lay disciple of Zen Master Huiyong of Baoen Temple. This friend who uses a big stick has his surname Ouyang and his twin names are Baozheng.
His father is Ouyang Ruda, the lord of Beidi City, and the one on the far right is my junior brother, Puji."
Yin Quan smiled disapprovingly and said: "It turns out that there are just these few people, and they are not well-known figures. For these few people to dare to announce that today is the day of my death, it is too disrespectful of my Pingxi Prince's Palace.
Come on! You Owl Guards are so arrogant that you dare to go to Yuzhou City to assassinate my sons. I have sent people out to search for them to ensure that none of you can escape! I will personally push you into the Colosseum and feed them.
tiger!"
Cheng Zifei glared and shouted: "Yin Quan, you are not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue when you speak big words? With the rotten garlic under you in Xueyingtang, do you have the ability to keep us? You are here in the palace of Yuzhou City in the southwest.
Sitting there is like a toad in a well. You are used to sitting in a well and looking at the sky. Do you think you can walk sideways in Dashang with the people you have? Grandpa Cheng tells you that you and your men are far behind! Last time you
Send someone to assassinate Jiannan Dao
Officials, big and small, we are here to settle accounts with you today!"
The warriors, butterflies, and bats of the Blood Shadow Hall were furious when they heard Cheng Zifei calling them rotten garlic. If Cheng Jijia hadn't stopped them, they would have rushed up to beat Cheng Zifei.
Yin Quan first looked at the people across from him, then finally laid his eyes on Cheng Zifei's face, and said with a smile: "Oh, your name is Cheng Zifei, right? I remember, you used to seem like
He is the captain of Tang Jiusheng's guard. He is in the third level of martial arts. He learned a few sword skills of the Three-Legged Cat from Monk Hui Yong and thought he was a master. The masters of the Blood Shadow Hall under me once made a review. You are lucky to be among Tang Jiusheng's men.
You are one of the four great losers, so you are very famous, and I admire such a thick-skinned loser very much!"
Everyone in the Blood Shadow Hall burst into laughter when they saw Yin Quan mocking Cheng Zifei for being a loser. Cheng Zifei's face turned red. Although his third-level martial arts level was not low, in the palace of two masters, it was indeed
Because he couldn't be ranked, Tang Jiu Sheng asked him to be the captain of the guard mostly because of Zen Master Hui Yong's face. Especially in the past six months or so, he had been following Tang Jiu Sheng around and didn't have much time to practice martial arts. Furthermore, his martial arts skills were beyond the realm.
It's not that easy. He is still far away from the second level.
Yin Quan said again: "You said that I sent people to assassinate the officials of Jiannan Road?" Yin Quan spread his hands and said with an innocent face: "How is this possible! I am the prince of Dashang, so naturally I have to set an example and abide by Dashang.
How can the laws of the state allow his subordinates to kill people indiscriminately, especially the assassination of imperial officials? I have always loved the people like a son, and the people of Yuzhou all praised me, and some people voluntarily funded the construction of a shrine for me. Alas, I am obviously great.
Good people, but some people fabricate some lies to slander me out of jealousy. You are still young, don’t be deceived!"
Cheng Zifei was almost disgusted to death by Yin Quan, what a high-sounding rhetoric! What a great person? Cheng Zifei looked like he was about to vomit, shook his head and said: "I really can't stand it, are there still such shameless people? I
I heard that there are many families in Southwest Road who have given birth to beautiful daughters. Just because you went around robbing other people of their beautiful girls, those people were so frightened that they fled to Jiannan or even Jiangnan or Lingnan!"
Yin Quan nodded and said: "I am indeed lustful and like beautiful women, but I never go to other people's homes to steal women! You have wronged me!" Yin Quan thought to himself, "Damn it, I never went to other people's homes to steal women."
Women, it was all done by my men!
Cheng Jijia coughed, came to Yin Quan's rescue, looked at Cheng Zifei, and said with a smile: "You deserve the surname Cheng? You were the one who made a lot of noise outside just now, asking our prince to get out and die, right? Very good, this hall
The Lord wants to send people to assassinate the officials of Jiannan Road. What can you do to us? If you don't accept it, there are several butterfly angels in my Blood Shadow Hall, all of whom are women. If you can defeat them, you can also
You are a capable man, but if you can't win against a bitch, you'd better get out of here!" All the warriors in the Blood Shadow Hall burst into laughter.
Cheng Zifei blushed and said angrily: "Cheng Jijia, you are an old man who helps the emperor! You are a loser who can't even lift a knife, but you have the nerve to laugh at your father-in-law? Our surname is also Cheng. I follow King Wei wholeheartedly.
You serve the country and the people, but you have taken refuge in a traitor who wants to kill the people! It is in vain that you are well-read in classics and history, but your heart is like a snake and a scorpion, and you have the nerve to speak out here without shame. What face do you have to face the ancestors of our Cheng family?"
Cheng Jijia burst into laughter and applauded: "What an impassioned young man! Since you know that I have read a lot about classics and history, you should know that the imperial court is rotten. I have read so much about classics and history, but I can't even get a job as a county magistrate! If it weren't for the prince's appreciation,
, I am still being humiliated by those fools who work in the fields and collect dung in the village! I have no way to get in, so what’s wrong with following the prince? A scholar dies for a confidant, the prince appreciates me, and this life of the old man belongs to the prince! Do I still want to give my life to him?
Yin Guang'er who doesn't take us seriously?"
Cheng Jijia turned around and pointed at the dozens of people in the Blood Shadow Hall, and said loudly: "These people are all capable people. Some of them have martial arts skills that are countless times higher than yours. But if they don't follow the prince, they won't even be an official."
You can't even get half a job! And you are Tang Jiusheng's guard captain, is this fair? In this case, don't blame us for trying to do big things! If Yin Guang took us seriously, would we be where we are today? So
We only support the prince. Only when the prince becomes the emperor can we live a good life! Yin Guang, my son, is controlled by the eunuchs and the kings, but you want to protect this incompetent person. How can you be undefeated?
"
Cheng Zifei spat angrily.
He took a sip and cursed: "Bah! You old thief! You claim to be well-read in classics and history. Don't you know that there is a truth in the book that you can't bend with force, you can't be slutty with wealth, and you can't move with poverty? You've read all the books.
Here! For the sake of your own selfishness, you help the evildoers, drag the whole world into a pit of fire, and make people suffer from military disasters. Is this the truth you read? Although I haven't read many books, I also know how to cultivate one's family and govern the country.
The principle of bringing peace to the world and allowing people to live and work in peace and contentment is the highest pursuit of scholars!"
Cheng Jijia sneered and said: "Those who gave birth to me, those who raised me, my parents, those who know me, those who use me, the prince! The prince treats me as a national scholar, and I will repay him as a national scholar! Cheng Zifei, are you willing to protect Tang Jiu Sheng, and are you willing to protect Yin Guang?"
That's your business. I don't care about it. It's useless for us to talk more here. Why don't we have a fight with the bright guys! Can you defeat the butterfly messenger under me? Yin Heqiu comes out!"
A butterfly angel wearing green arrow sleeves came out in response. The butterfly angel was not very young, about twenty years old. She had white teeth and red lips. She was delicate and delicate. She was also a rare beauty. The butterfly angel was
After getting out of the queue, he pulled out the Yanling Saber with a cry, looked at Cheng Zifei and said with a smile: "Captain Cheng David, my name is Yin Heqiu, I am the weakest among the Butterfly Envoys of the Blood Shadow Hall, so I was selected by the hall master.
To deal with you, I'm afraid those masters will come out and kill you with one sword, which will make your prince look bad!" The warriors of Blood Shadow Hall started making noise together.
Cheng Zifei's face turned red. In front of everyone, a woman named him and wanted to fight him. It would be really embarrassing if he didn't come out. Cheng Zifei had no choice but to stand up. He had just walked two steps forward.
As soon as he stepped forward, Ouyang Baozheng jumped out and grabbed him, "Brother Cheng, it is not your task to fight today. You can go to the back and hold the battle! You are the dignified captain of the royal guard, and you can provoke others with just a few words.
How can that be done?" Cheng Zifei got off the slope and stepped back. Originally, his mission today was to scold people.
Ouyang Baozheng held a big stick and stood proudly in front of everyone. He said carelessly: "I heard that all of you Butterfly Envoys in the Blood Shadow Hall have been Yin Quan's concubines. I don't like you. I'm afraid of dirtying my hands if I beat you. My last name is
Yin's bitch, go back and find another man! It's impossible for all the men in your Blood Shadow Hall to be dead, right?"
Yin Quan looked at Ouyang Baozheng and said loudly: "Ouyang, your father is the lord of the Beidi City of the Great Shang Kingdom. He is the uncrowned king! Our Yin family is not kind to your Ouyang family. Why did you follow these people to the prince's palace?"
Are you making trouble? If you withdraw now, I will just pretend that you have never been here, otherwise I will sue the court and accuse Ouyang Ruda of committing murder and causing trouble in the palace!"
Ouyang Baozheng laughed and said: "Oh, you are talking nonsense! When have I been to your Pingxi Prince's Mansion and when have I made mischief? I have been well-educated since I was a child, and I am a good citizen. I have always abided by the law and supported big business.
Court! It was because some bad people were jealous of me that they framed me and made up some lies to slander me. Don’t you just listen to those bad people to slander me? What evidence do you have to prove that I have been to your Pingxi?
Prince's Mansion?" Ouyang Baozheng deliberately imitated Yin Quan's words and used his methods to repay others.
Cheng Zifei laughed loudly and said: "Ouyang, I really belong to you! Brother will definitely invite you to the brothel to drink wine later. If you don't drink, I can't bear your words today! It's so enjoyable and so refreshing!"
Yin Quan couldn't bear it anymore and waved his hand: "Yin Heqiu, kill him for me!" Yin Quan waved his hand angrily, tilted his head and looked at the side halls on both sides of the Blood Shadow Hall. His chest was not rising and falling. This man named Ouyang is such a gangster.
! Yin Quan gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart, since you dare to come to my palace to make mischief, don't blame me for being rude! I will kill you all in the palace tonight and bury you on the spot. Whoever asks tomorrow, I will tell you
Never seen you!
Cheng Jijia on the side was secretly thinking, these guys are so confident to make trouble in the palace, why don't they come prepared? You have to be careful today, if you are beaten in front of your house, it will be embarrassing.
Big! Thinking of this, Cheng Jijia waved to a green-clothed butterfly envoy, and the butterfly envoy came over. Cheng Jijia leaned in her ear and whispered a few words. The butterfly envoy bowed and said: "Yes, I understand.
!" The butterfly flew away, climbed up the ridge of the palace, flew through the air, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Butterfly envoy Yin Heqiu has a headache. If she faces Cheng Zifei, even if she may not win, she will at least be invincible. This big man Ouyang Baozheng looks tall and powerful, and a bit ferocious. I don't think it's him.
Chapter completed!
