Volume Three

3.56 Mr. Zhao, the head of the bodyguard, has been admired for a long time
After the spring hunting was over, the various busy interactions that Zhou Yang thought he had had did not happen. Instead, he was allowed to have a good rest for a few days, especially since Dongfang Bing had to rest for three days. Naturally, he spent most of the time "resting" in the bedroom. , so that just two days later, Dongfang Qianhu returned to Princess Yongchang to report in advance.

This also made him understand that the second prince's final appearance was completely out of good intentions. A rising talent with "Jane in the Emperor's Heart" could indeed open up the situation, but a "talent" who could make the eldest prince and second prince almost tear each other up on the spot. , then the value is really limited, at least not so big that people have to pay a certain price to make friends with them.

In other words, Zhou Yang's way of "getting out of the circle" has been eliminated, which has even affected his "ordering" within Wu Xun. "Jane in the emperor's heart" must be able to be "discounted" before he can be considered truly valuable; If he can still only hang out within Wuxun, what will be the difference between him and before before he truly grows up?
After understanding this, he stopped blindly jumping around and doing useless work. Anyway, it was still early for him to be appointed or even take office, so he might as well learn more and improve himself to recharge for his future life, because he understood that he really The value is "ability". If you really believe in the so-called "brothers", you will definitely die without knowing how.

"Master, it's so boring -" After a few more days of practicing martial arts, studying books, and teasing maids, on April [-]th, Miss Qingwen, who had been teased by him so much, walked out of his arms in embarrassment. Breaking free, he thought for a moment and made an opinion, "Why don't we go see Sister Qiying? Since entering the capital, the young master hasn't been to the escort agency yet, right?"

"Huh?" Zhou Yang then remembered that not only had he never been to the Zhongyuan Escort Bureau, except for a few times when he went to the market, he had never really been to the outer city of the capital. He spent the whole day wandering around his courtyard or outside the city. "I remember you went there a lot. What, was it fun?"

"I can't say whether it's good or not, but with Sister Qiying and Sister Yan Ling, it will be more lively and fun than the two of us, right?" Qingwen has never been a person who uses her brains, so naturally there is no exception at this time.

"Okay, it's almost dinner time now, and I'm tired of the cooking at home, so why not go to a clean shop near the Zhongyuan Escort Bureau and invite Qiying to come out and hang out together." Because I never thought about it. How to "persuade" Zhao Tianhao? Zhou Yang doesn't want to "king vs. king" for the time being, so he can just brush it aside.

There was nothing to prepare, so Li Xiong was arranged to drive the carriage, and his fast horse was tied behind the carriage; Zhou Yang and Li Hu rode on horseback, Qingwen sat in the carriage, and the four of them simply drove out of the inner city and headed straight to the west of the outer city. Zhongyuan Escort Bureau, but when they finally arrived, something was not quite right.
"Boss Zhao, why is the money from the Tiger Gang dirty, or is the money from the Tiger Gang fake?" A sullen voice sounded not far away, and at this time, the gate of the Central Plains Security Bureau was surrounded by hundreds of people. , the escort agency’s lineup of only 40 to [-] people was obviously at a disadvantage, “Why doesn’t the Zhongyuan Escort Agency take over my Tiger Gang’s business?”

"Hmph, do you still have the guts to say it?" A strange female voice rang out, "How did your Tiger Gang get their money? Does anyone in the capital know? Collecting protection fees, sending money to the God of Wealth, and working as thugs for brothel casino guards, what? Isn’t it a dirty business? Our Zhongyuan Escort Agency has a good business, but we don’t dare to consign such dirty money!”

"I've heard for a long time that Miss Zhao Er has good teeth, but I wonder if you would like to let me have a taste?" This was followed by the same mockery from the Tiger Gang, accompanied by the wild laughter of the Tiger Gang's gangsters, but the person was obviously changed, "You The Zhongyuan Escort Bureau prides itself on being chivalrous, and we, the Tiger Gang, are too lazy to take care of it, but a few days ago, you killed more than a dozen brothers from my gang, and this account needs to be settled carefully!"

"Hmph, I don't know what you, Sun Gouzi, the leader of the Tiger Gang's outer hall, are going to try?" The female voice just now was not a vegetarian, "Even if you leave the scene, I, Zhao Mengjiao, will continue, what's the matter, why are you stepping back? No. Do you want to taste it? My aunt has a sword in her hand, but I don’t know if you can taste it? "

This time it was the Zhongyuan Escort's turn to laugh. In terms of high-end and average combat effectiveness, the Tiger Gang couldn't keep up with the Zhongyuan Escort.

"Hmph, Zhao Mengjiao, don't be complacent. Our number is three and a half times yours now, and we don't ask for any excessive conditions. As long as you three eldest ladies of the Zhao family kneel down and apologize, we will retreat immediately without saying a word. Otherwise, we will not know whether you Zhao How many people can the second lady kill with a sword, and how many can it protect?" Hall Master Sun Gouzi just shouted angrily.

"Although the Zhongyuan Escort Bureau has a small number of people, it is not afraid of death." The cold voice clearly reached the ears of everyone at the scene, who if it wasn't Zhao Qiying, "I just hope that your Tiger Gang will never miss it. If I let If the Zhao family escapes, you may not be able to live in peace for the rest of your life; not to mention that this is at the foot of the Emperor. If you so boldly block the gate of my escort agency, aren't you afraid of the king's law and the government?"

"As the saying goes, 'the world is about the rivers and lakes', the government is not in the mood to meddle in their own business." This Hall Master Sun is not indiscriminately arrogant, obviously he has already arranged the upper-level relationship, "My Tiger Gang surrounded your Central Plains Escort for three days, As long as we don't take action, it's not a big deal; I just don't know if your Zhongyuan Escort Agency has the guts to take action first."

"You are shameless -" Zhao Mengjiao said in an angry voice.Without meeting in advance, Zhou Yang looked around with a solemn expression. As expected, he did not see even an official figure such as a police officer; the people around him seemed to be frightened or warned, no matter the store or the residents, they all looked around. The door was closed; there were no pedestrians on the street, and there was obviously another obstacle. The Tiger Gang was fully prepared, and it was clear that they were going to take down the Zhongyuan Escort Agency.

"Master, Sister Qiying is in danger!" Seeing that he had not taken action yet, Qingwen became anxious, "If we don't help, maybe..."

"Li Xiong, drive the car home and arrange for someone to guard the door to watch over the house; you go to Wucheng Bingmasi to report the crime yourself, and remember to bring my name card." Ignoring her impatience, Zhou Yang ordered with a solemn expression After finishing Li Xiong, he took out the Broken Horse Sword, Jade Waist Bow, and two eighteen-piece quiver from the carriage, put them under his crotch and fixed them immediately with sweat and blood. Then he waved to Li Hu, and the two stepped forward The horse went up to meet him, "Which one who doesn't have a good eye said 'the world is a matter of the rivers and lakes'?
The whole world is not the land of the king, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers. The decrees of the imperial court govern all the people of the world, and not just cats and dogs can jump over them. What's more, when will a group of low-class street rats have the right to be in this capital? Are you making irresponsible remarks about the boundaries of the land? "

"Brother Zhou!" Before Zhao Qiying could say anything, Zhao Yanling had already jumped out of the "camp" of the Zhongyuan Escort Bureau with a cheer, stepped forward to catch Zhou Yang's horse reins, and pulled him into the gate of the Zhongyuan Escort Bureau, "Hehe, I just said send People ask you for help, but sister just doesn’t agree, so you’re not here yet!”

"Mr. Zhao, I have long admired your name!" Zhou Yang did not answer her, but gave her a look to tell her to be honest. Then he jumped off his bloody horse and saluted a strong sword-wielding man standing in the middle of the door with his fists raised. , "I saw you today, and it is indeed well-deserved!"

"I don't know who the young master is -" Zhao Tianhao didn't recognize him, so he clasped his fists in confusion and asked in return, "Although what Hall Master Sun did was indeed unethical, it did not violate the moral principles of the world. The affairs of the world are still..."

"It turns out it's Mr. Zhou (judging people)!" Before Zhao Tianhao could finish speaking, Hall Master Sun from the Tiger Gang had already stood up with a cold face, "The villain knows that Mr. Zhou is powerful, but in this matter of the world, with Mr. Zhou's I’m afraid it’s unjustifiable to interfere with my identity, right?”

"Let me remind you, it should be Zhou Jinshi." Zhou Yang turned around and looked at the so-called "Master Sun". Sure enough, he had the wrong nickname. This man looked wretched, less than 1.7 meters tall, and carried a The ghost-headed sword looks like a live version of "Monkey Crown", "Now do you still think I can't intervene?"

"What?" Hall Master Sun turned his head and glared at the gangster who had just provided him with information. It was Master Luo Xiang who ran away after the conflict with Zhou Yang and Zhao Qiying. Just looking at his current dress, he should be After being beaten to the end, he was just helping everyone, "Mr. Zhou, since this villain can stay here for three days."

"Brother Qiu must not know." Zhou Yang said with a sneer. In fact, it was a shame. Such a big thing happened in the capital. To say that the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division didn't know is purely an insult to his intelligence. "Excellent." Well, so many of you are besieging me, a dignified imperial martial arts scholar, who gives you the courage? Is it possible that the White Lotus demon will take the opportunity to cause trouble again?"

"You - Mr. Zhou, don't want to slander anyone!" Hall Master Sun was exasperated, "The villain is just one of his brothers who was bullied, so he summoned a few brothers to come over to make trouble, but he doesn't know the White Lotus Demon, let alone , you said he is a Wu Jinshi, does that mean he is a Wu Jinshi? I even said that I was the top scholar in Wu!"

"Oh?" Zhou Yang was stunned for a moment. He really underestimated this grandson. Only now did he realize that "Master" can be used as an honorific title for people's achievements, and it can also be used as an honorific title for other important figures, so it can only be used as an honorific title. I can continue to slap the blame, "Really? How about this, you and I shout together, 'Wu Sheng Lao Mu is the bitch in the building', and I will admit that you are not the White Lotus Demon!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, before Sun Gouzi could answer, he felt at least a dozen sharp eyes from the crowd staring at him, and it made him painfully aware that he might have kicked an iron plate this time!
"Go on, kill him!" A loud shout came from the "Lord Luo Xiang" who was turned into a gang member. However, he saw him rushing over with a steel knife, followed closely by more than ten people. The strong man actually encountered the White Lotus Sect!
"Qiang——" The horse-breaking sword hung horizontally on the sweat-blooded horse's victory hook was unsheathed, and under the bright sunlight, it flashed a cold light, "Hall Master Sun, it seems that today's matter cannot be solved. Got it!"
