One Curtain Wind Moon Nine Heavens

Chapter 24
Clang!The crisp sound of weapons colliding with each other.

After all, Yuan Zhao was a child, and he didn't really want to kill someone. The sword he threw seemed sharp but had little strength, and was easily knocked away by a small sword.

"Hey, why are you so cruel, kid? She didn't mess with you!" A man with the appearance of a ranger came over and yelled.

He had a panoramic view of the whole process, not bullying children.

He was the ranger who was injured by a tiger when he went into the mountains to fight a bear last time, and was rescued by Ji Wu.Although only in a hurry, Yuan Zhao recognized him at a glance.For some reason, this person came to the general's mansion but couldn't get through the door, instead he watched the excitement outside.

This is not the way one should treat a benefactor.

Facing the questioning, Yuan Zhao ignored it, and his eyes fell on the woman's face.The other party looked at He Chun who ran down to pick up the sword in amazement, and looked up at the tall girl in doubt, as if he couldn't believe that she was going to kill him.

"Brother, save you, I'll kill you, it's even." Yuan Zhao looked at her and said indifferently, "My general's mansion has no entanglement with you, if you want to repay your favor for your slave, you can report it to the person next to you." Be a strong man, he saved you."

After finishing speaking, he turned around, "Close the door." He Chun returned to the mansion with He Chun.

With the heavy closing of the door, there was silence outside the house, and there was no sound.Everyone never expected that what was originally a difficult matter would be settled so decisively by a girl.

woman:"……"

Ranger: "...?!!" He seems to have been used!

"As expected of a child of the general's family, he is bold, careful, and decisive." In the crowd, people of insight couldn't help but praise.

"A tiger father has no dogs." Someone sighed.

"The tiger father has no dog daughter. That is the young daughter of the general's family, or the princess." Someone corrected it in time.

"What merits has she been awarded?" Someone wondered.

"She doesn't, her father does."

The Marquis of Dingyuan has a special status, but he has repeatedly won military exploits. If he is a Marquis, then the reward will be over.It's better to reward his sons and daughters, so as to stop the courtiers' mouths and not treat the heroes badly.

"Where is his son?"

"Don't you know, Marquis Dingyuan values ​​his sons..." A passer-by who didn't know much about it explained.

Oh, the people who were watching were stupefied, and at the same time felt sorry for the eldest son of Dingyuanhou who had passed away for many years.

"Hey, this woman, the general's mansion has already given you a kindness, why are you still kneeling here?" Some passers-by listened to the gossip, and some passers-by remembered the excitement here, and joked, "Your benefactor is this strong man..."

"No, no, no..." Realizing that he was being used, the ranger who was about to slip away was pushed back by the crowd, and clapped his hands in embarrassment, "Lu... passing by, passing by, just passing by, passing by..."

Wanting to say that the road was uneven, but also thinking that he might have been fooled, he immediately changed it to passing by aggrievedly.

The woman was also aggrieved, complied with the jokes of the crowd, kowtowed sadly to the ranger, and then her body went limp and fainted to the ground.

When everyone saw this, they panicked for a while. A farmer pushed his own cart and asked the ranger and his companions to carry the woman into the cart and rushed to the medical clinic on the street.

……

The door of the mansion was closed, Yuan Zhao walked into his courtyard unhurriedly, followed by He Chun couldn't help asking:

"Princess, how do you know that man will draw his sword to help? If he doesn't make a move or is a step slower, wouldn't that woman's life be over?"

The princess suddenly drew the knife, which startled her.

"No," Yuan Zhao said confidently, "With my strength, even if I hit her, she won't die, at most she will suffer."

Unless the other party wanted to die and took the initiative to put his head on the sword she threw.As for whether the ranger will help, she is not sure, it is just a gamble.

Looking at the result, she won the bet, and things developed as she wished, which is enough.

"But the steward wants to know where she came from." He Chun was worried that the little master would spoil the steward's plan.

"It's the same for sending someone to follow at this time." Yuan Zhao ordered, "Let the follower be careful, if the other party is a spy or killer sent by others, they must be good at skills."

"This subordinate understands." He Chun took the order.

"Wait, send someone cautious to investigate why that nosy ranger is here." Yuan Zhao added.

Why are you squatting at her door?Bought by the government?If so, she will definitely make him look good.I remember when hunting bears, Uncle Ji said that he gave up a bear to the rangers to carry back to receive a reward.

If the other party sees profit and forgets righteousness, what kind of ranger should he be?It is more suitable to be a wandering spirit.

He Chun took the order and left, leaving Jinniang in nursing home...

At noon, Steward Ji came back, and when he learned the cause of the incident, he came to personally report to the young master.

It turned out that since the three rangers received the reward, they were grateful for the kindness of the general's mansion, and wanted to rely on Lord Hou to make some achievements.By coincidence, I met a woman begging to enter the mansion as a slave in order to repay the third son for saving his life.

The three of them looked at it, hey, just to see how the general's mansion will deal with it.

Is it to bully people and drive them away, or to welcome them into the mansion so that they can be persuaded and sent away?They are not afraid of life and death, and they turn to Beiyuezhi without hesitation. They want to rely on the wise master, not to work for the ruthless powerful.

For this reason, they squatted outside for a whole day.

Finally, a serious master came out, and when he was excitedly looking forward to it, the little princess sold the three of them without blinking his eyes.

"...At this time, the three of them are cursing in the tavern, hesitating whether to come to seek refuge..." Ji Guanshi said with a smile.

After sending the fainted woman to the hospital, the three of them didn't dare to stay for a long time, so they dropped a penny and ran away, fearing that they would be entangled by the woman and they would not be able to escape, and they would ask for trouble.

Before entering the mansion, they were swayed by the little princess. The three rangers were terrified, worried that the wrong person they cast would ruin their lives.

"Oh?" Yuan Zhao frowned after hearing this, "Then am I making a mistake?"

"The princess is worrying too much," Ji Guanshi said with a smile, "Those three people knew the situation of Lord Hou, but they still came to visit in full view of the public. They were brave but not resourceful. In the future, they may not accomplish enough and fail."

It's better for these people to stay outside.

Just this morning, when he was dealing with the matter of the woman at the gate of the mansion, he had already spotted the figures of the three of them.Seeing them standing still and watching outside the human wall, I didn't bother to pay attention.

He ordered the guards to reject the three of them no matter what their intentions were.

There are too many eyes staring at the general's mansion. If you welcome the three of them into the mansion under the watchful eyes of everyone, no matter whether they succeed in seeking refuge or not, if they cause any bad things outside in the future, someone with a heart will always find a way to pin it on the Marquis.

"Lord Hou is the head of the clan, so if you can avoid some troubles," Guan Ji said, "There is nothing wrong with the princess's actions today, so don't worry too much."

Even if there is something wrong, it is the wrong of the subordinates.

If this matter is resolved early, why should the master bother to come forward?

After hearing his words, Yuan Zhao felt relieved, and then remembered something, "Uncle Ji, do you know General Gu's brother Fan Zhao? Does he have a relationship with our family?"

After getting along for several years, she always felt that Uncle Ji knew a little too much.

For example, Governor Wu, thanks to Uncle Ji, she knows exactly where Mrs. Wu is from, how many children the servants around her have, their respective preferences, and what they do for a living.

Now there is one more General Gu's baby brother...

Ha, the little master has a keen mind, no wonder Hou Ye wanted to ask Mr. Gongzhi to teach him personally.

Steward Ji smiled and nodded:
"As stewards, we need to know the situation of each household thoroughly in order to better handle affairs for the master. The trivial tricks are not worth mentioning. But the princess, you must beware of the sixth princess when you return to Beijing in the future."

Even if there is no evidence, be careful.

"She has always disliked me," Yuan Zhao said disapprovingly when the soldiers came to block him, and the water came to cover him, "Does the third brother know what happened today?"

"The subordinates have sent someone to send letters to Lord Hou and the third son, and they should have been received."

"That's good." Yuan Zhao paused, then asked suddenly, "Uncle Ji, tell me honestly, father and third brother have been outside for so many years...do you have an outside room?"

Steward Ji looked up in surprise: "..." Huh?
