Need for a Guard

The next day, Shi Yue slept soundly, the sun was shining on his buttocks, and no blind servant came to wake him up.

He stretched comfortably, washed his face, heard a light knock on the door, and was hungry, so he thought it was Xi'er who came to deliver food again, and ran to open the door happily.

When I opened the door, I saw the old butler Wang standing at the door, holding a bottle of mellow wine in his hand, squinting his small eyes, hunched over his withered body, and said with a smile: "Young Master Shi, you got up so early, Old Wang!" I'm bothering you!"

This old man is so hypocritical!

There are three poles in the sun, and you still praise me for getting up early?

"Wang Steward, what else is your name Shi Gongzi? My first name is Shi Yue, and my nickname is Shi San. From now on, please call me Shi San!" Shi Yue sneered in his heart, but his eyes were aiming at Steward Wang's head intentionally or unintentionally.

"Ah! Shi San, this name is easy to pronounce and kind. Since that's the case, I will call you Shi San from now on. Don't call me Steward Wang, because it seems extravagant? Call me Old Wang!" He looks very happy with his beard.

"Old Wangba? Hehe...the name is so exciting!" Shi Yue said with a smirk, "I said Lao Wang...ba, you came to see me, what's the matter?"

Steward Wang said with a grin, "What's the matter? Shi San, you are new here, and you don't know everyone. The guards of the other wives in the mansion all want to get close to you. There is nothing wrong with you today. Brothers, are you here?" Zuixianglou is hosting a banquet, and I will welcome you, you must appreciate it!" The old bark-like big finger pointed to the wine bottle in his hand, and said persuasively: "This is Yuyaochun, which I have treasured for 20 years, and it is fragrant! "

Bodyguard party?

Shi Yue was stunned for a moment, hesitating whether to attend, to show off his prestige...

Steward Wang saw his hesitation, and said mysteriously: "Shi San, although Lei Dahu is no longer working as a guard in Xiong's Mansion, he will be there at noon, so you guys just take this opportunity to get close!"

As soon as Shi Yue heard that Lei Dahu was actually there, he couldn't help but feel a little moved when he thought of the fist that was the size of a sandbag. This guy is quite interesting. If we get in touch with him, maybe he can take the opportunity to learn about the secret of that shrew of the eldest lady!Then he nodded and said: "In this case, I will report to Mrs. Ninth first. If there is nothing urgent, I will definitely be there!"

Steward Wang was overjoyed: "Then I'll come back later, you don't know the way, let's go there together!" Putting his arms around his body, he turned and walked away.

Shi Yue hurriedly caught up behind him, waved his big hand, and grabbed his head in the air.

"What's the matter? Shi San?" Butler Wang smiled kindly.

"There are mosquitoes!" Shi Yue smiled and opened his big hands, a mosquito was caught between his fingers, still struggling.

"I believe in Buddhism, so I don't kill!" Steward Wang smiled kindly, "You have to forgive people and forgive them. Mosquitoes are living beings. Let them go!" Smiling and shaking his head, he walked away.

Shi Yue spread his fingers, the mosquito struggled and buzzed away.

A strand of hair appeared between two fingers.

He also took out the strands of hair that he secretly got off from the head of the man in black last night, and compared them together: the curvature, color, thickness, and hardness of the two strands of hair were almost the same.

"I guessed it was you, an old ghost!" Shi Yue looked at Steward Wang's hunched back, with an inscrutable smile on his face: Uncle, uncle, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd?

Shi Yue rushed to Mrs. Ninth's small courtyard, but found that the gate of Mrs. Ninth's courtyard was locked, and there was no one at home. He was anxious, and hurriedly ran to the gate, grabbed the white beard of Uncle Fu who was guarding the gate, and asked Mrs. Ninth viciously. whereabouts.

Uncle Fu was scared out of his wits by this villain. When he saw him, he felt goosebumps all over his body, and his thighs didn't seem to be his own.

This villain, who doesn't spare even the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, is definitely not a kind person when he sees his fierce expression!

Moreover, the heroic deeds of the Ninth Madam defeating the Da Furen last night have spread throughout the mansion. Shi Yue has made great contributions. As the Ninth Madam's personal bodyguard, his status has skyrocketed.

Uncle Fu, who was used to being a fool, hurriedly said with a smile on his face: "Great... hero, you... good afternoon!"

hero?What about prawns?Flatterer!Shi Yue said impatiently: "Stop rambling, where is Mrs. Ninth? Tell me quickly? Otherwise, a fist the size of a sandbag will blow your head off."

"Don't...don't hit!" Uncle Fu was so frightened that he waved his hands again and again: "The Ninth Madam went out early in the morning. I saw that she took a lot of yellow paper. It is very likely that she went to the grave to burn incense..."

Go to the grave?Burn incense?

Shi Yue had doubts in his mind: Why didn't he bring me as his personal bodyguard when he went to the grave to burn incense?Still avoiding me?

Don't you know that there are many right and wrong of beautiful women going out?Don't know if your ankle is sprained and you can't walk?I don't know how much Little Stone wants to see your charming face now?

That's all!That's all!I'll question you again when I get back!

After returning to the room and staying bored for a while, studying the brocade box again, Steward Wang hunched over, put on clean clothes, came to greet him, left the Xiong Mansion with him, and went straight to the Zuixiang Building.

The two walked southeast, turned two roads, and came to a downtown area called Chunyang Street. There were shops on both sides of the road, and there was a huge flow of people and it was very lively.

A hundred meters ahead, a stalwart restaurant appeared in Shi Yue's sight.

There are three big characters written on the plaque brightly - Zuixianglou!The font is domineering, powerful, and has a sense of chiseling!There is a line of small characters at the signature: Flowers without tears!

"What a good handwriting!"

Shi Yue admired it from the bottom of his heart, observed it for a long time, felt the fortitude and sharpness leaked between the lines, and shook his head sadly: "It is easy to break if you are too rigid, and easy to break if you are too aggressive. Although this person is talented and extraordinary, he will not escape bad luck after all."

Steward Wang twitched his brows imperceptibly, and in his heart he was shocked as a heavenly man, sighed and said: "Shi Sanzhen is a godly man! This man is excellent in both civil and martial arts. He used to be the admiral of the nine schools. He was plotted against, disabled for life, resigned from office, and had nothing to do, so he ran this restaurant. Because he has many friends, he often comes to patronize, and the business is extremely hot!"

"Admiral of the Nine Gates?" Shi Yue asked stupidly: "So he was looking after the door for the emperor? Is it the same level as Uncle Fu?

Steward Wang was also dumbfounded for a moment, and an urge to scratch the wall arose in his heart: Admiral of the Nine Gates, that is the most important line of defense for guarding the capital, and this villain actually said that he was guarding the gate, really! Pissed off personally.

After a while, Shi Yue was dragged by him to a dining table by the window on the left side of the second floor.

The table was surrounded by more than a dozen people. Looking carefully, some of the guards had already seen them in the battle last night. The guard whose mouth he slapped had a swollen face and was in it.

Seeing him coming, all the guards hurriedly stood up and greeted him!This made Shi Yue very happy, and his whole body was buoyant, showing a sense of pride.

Suddenly there was a burst of unrestrained laughter from behind: "Brother Shi, you are indeed here. If this banquet is without you, it will be really meaningless."

Like a giant bear, Lei Duhu walked over from behind with big strides, greeted Shi Yue enthusiastically to take a seat, and said mysteriously: "Little Dude took me in, I'm temporarily on an errand in the drunken town building, and in the future, brothers can do whatever they want." Come drink, I treat you."

Pointing to the guards one by one, he introduced: "This is Li Tong, this is Gao Fei..."

Every time a person is introduced, that person must nod and bow to Shi Yue to toast, and the implicit taste of respect permeates the wine table.

This is an era when the strong are respected. If it weren't for Shi Yue's powerful fighting power, how could it be possible for these guards with high eyesight and low hands to show weakness willingly?

Shi Yue was in a good mood, drinking like a cow drinking water, and anyone who offered a toast would not refuse anyone who came, showing his strong fighting power.

"Brother Shi, Hailiang, you're a real man!" Lei Duhu stretched out his thumb and praised loudly, not to be outdone, he led the guards to take a drink, and started to fight for another drink.
