Chapter 72 Getting to know Wang Sheng
The fairy ointment matter was handled faster than expected. On the day Nian Ruipeng was released from prison, Zhou Yan had already arranged everything.
Before leaving, Lin Xing and Zhao Jie took a look at Zhao Zhong. He was lying on the dry thatch with a dejected look on his face. When they saw Lin Xing and Zhao Jie approaching, a gleam of light rose in his eyes, but after a while, it dimmed a bit.
"Madam, Master." Zhao Zhong knelt on the ground and kowtowed twice, "I can't help you."
"What's the use of talking about this?" Lin Xing asked him, "You have already done the things, and you can tell me if you have any difficulties, but you just take the wrong approach, and it is useless to talk more. Considering that you have been in the Zhao family for twenty years,
For the sake of the year, we will let you go, and we will have nothing to do with you in the future."
Zhao Jie didn't know what to say to Zhao Zhong. He used to get along with Zhao Zhong day and night, and the other person was the person he trusted the most, but...
Zhao Jie was filled with disappointment and only glanced at Zhao Zhong before turning around and leaving.
However, at this moment, Zhao Zhong suddenly stopped the two of them: "Madam, Master, I don't want to be released from prison."
Lin Xing paused, but never looked back.
Don't use it if you doubt it, don't doubt it if you employ it.
Ever since Zhao Zhong had a conflict with the Zhao family, time in the past has become the most useless constraint.
After returning to Nanluogu Lane, Chunxiao came to report: "Uncle Zhong was released from prison. He did not receive the subsidy issued by the prefect and left with his grandson."
Lin Xing nodded but did not answer. There was a loud noise in the courtyard. Zhao Jie jumped up from his chair and walked towards the door. Lin Xing also followed him to take a look.
Sure enough, it was Nian Ruipeng who was picked up. His wounds were not fully healed yet and he was wrapped in several layers of gauze. The moment he saw Ruan Hongxiu, his body stiffened and his tone was bad.
"Why are you here? This place is not as good as the Nian family. I..."
Before he finished speaking, Lin Xing and Zhao Jie came out. Nian Ruipeng struggled and knelt on the ground and said: "Thank you, madam. The young master is willing to take me in for the time being. Hongxiu must have caused a lot of trouble for madam. Nian Ruipeng is here to express my gratitude to madam."
Make amends."
In less than a month, Nian Ruipeng's address to Zhao Jie has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Zhao Jie's heart was full of mixed emotions, and he no longer had any intention of mocking Nian Ruipeng.
After a moment of silence, Zhao Jie said as usual: "Nian Ruipeng, what tricks are you playing? You are so docile. You want my mother to teach me some etiquette, don't you? Get up quickly."
"Hongxiu is the girl I hired to open an embroidery workshop in the capital. How could she get into trouble for me? In the future, when you enter the capital, join the army, and have an establishment, we will still call you "Soldier" when we trouble you.
Will we also kneel then?" Lin Xing asked him.
Seeing Nian Ruipeng shaking his head, Lin Xing said, "Hongxiu will be mine from now on. Since you are of the same mind as Hongxiu, you must never see anyone outside."
Lin Xing involuntarily tied Ruan Hongxiu to Nian Ruipeng, forcing Nian Ruipeng to refuse.
What's more, Nian Ruipeng is not blind. Looking at Ruan Hongxiu's red and swollen eyes, he naturally understands her worries these days. Nian Ruipeng was silent for a moment, then bowed and said: "Yes."
Just when Nian Ruipeng and others stepped into the room, Zhou Yan also arrived.
Lin Xing saw him coming in a hurry and wanted to pour him a cup of hot tea. However, before she could make a move, her wrist suddenly felt hot. Zhou Yan pressed it on it and said, "Things have changed.
We have to leave tonight."
In such a hurry?
Lin Xing wanted to ask something, but seeing Zhou Yan's expression, she knew he didn't want to speak, so she had no choice but to keep silent and simply put away her things.
The remaining poison in Lin Guoer's body was not cleared, so she had no choice but to leave with Lin Xing.
Lin Xing gave the key to Nanluogu Lane to Zou, saying that if Zou felt uncomfortable living in the Lin Mansion in the future, she could go to Nanluogu Lane.
Several people left at noon and divided into two groups at Shiliting.
Zhang Ping led a group of sedans loaded with stones from the side road, while Shuo Feng led a few people straight to the main road.
The road was open, but because of Zhou Yan's identity, several people could not sit back and relax. Zhao Jie quietly opened a layer of window curtains and looked outside. Lin Xing was sitting beside him, and the breeze blew a few strands of her hair, which looked disappointing.
That cold face was a little more tender.
Zhou Yan's eyes fell on Lin Xing's face calmly, but Lin Xing suddenly moved forward, which made him feel numb all over and he couldn't help but sit up straight.
"Why are there moso bamboos around here?"
Lin Xing moved closer to Zhao Jie. She leaned in front of the window curtain and unconsciously got a little closer to Zhao Jie.
"Let me take a look." Zhou Yan cleared his throat and squeezed over. He patted Zhao Jie on the shoulder as if unintentionally. Zhao Jie stood up and he sat down.
Zhao Jie:......
In order to prevent assassins, the soil beside the road has always been soft and brown, making it impossible to grow any crops.
Now the soil is firm and black, the moso bamboo is growing vigorously, and can even hide several people.
Zhou Yan frowned slightly and whispered: "Shuo Feng."
Shuofeng took the order. He pinched it lightly with his fingertips and put it to his lips. The whistle sounded, and several boomerangs suddenly blew across the road from both sides. Wherever they touched, the bamboos were cut in half.
It was also at this time that bamboos rustled just twenty feet ahead. Soon, a group of more than twenty killers was forced to appear.
The visitors had a clear purpose and were well-trained, but in the blink of an eye, they had already set up a formation and were approaching Zhou Yan's carriage.
There were also many caravans entering the capital among them. When they saw the group of people running towards Zhou Yan's carriage, they thought they were ordinary bandits and ordered the bodyguards to raise their swords together.
Therefore, even though most of Zhou Yan's troops were divided by Zhang Ping, they were not at a disadvantage.
Zhou Yan's eyebrows were slightly stern, and he jumped up from the carriage. He used a folding fan as a blade and performed Qing Kung Fu. He passed through the crowd in the blink of an eye, and howls could be heard. He alone was able to kill dozens of people.
Zhao Jie followed behind him, sitting on his horse with his bow and arrow ready. However, before he could shoot an arrow, all the killers in front of him were killed by Zhou Yan.
He opened his mouth wide in surprise, and immediately fell to the ground in admiration. Even the bodyguard Wang Sheng opened his eyes wide and ran over excitedly: "My lord, I didn't expect you to have such ability!"
Zhou Yan's folding fan was already stained with blood. He glanced at the scattered corpses one by one. His eyes were gloomy, and he threw the folding fan away. When he turned around, he had regained his calm and calm appearance.
He said: "It's just the skills of a three-legged cat."
"Just now I saw that those people came for the officials, but the officials remained calm in the face of danger and could fight one against ten. They are truly gods." Wang Sheng boasted.
Most people would only give him a few words of flattery after seeing his skills.
However, Wang Sheng was chasing after him, not to mention that there was a caravan on his side.
Zhou Yan was about to leave, but suddenly he stood still and looked Wang Sheng up and down.
