Stunning weapon

Chapter 22 The man in gray

At noon, the weather is getting hotter, and a few bowls of sake are refreshing.

Lu Shang and Situ Xiong praised each other while drinking.Situ Xiong admired Lu Shang's bravery very much, and listening to him talk about his previous battles on the battlefield, he felt particularly refreshed.Lu Shang also admired Situ Xiong's courage, and he was full of praise for the things he said to teach the rich son a lesson.

The two of them seemed to hate each other, they drank more and talked more, and finally talked, bringing the topic to Mo Xiaochuan.

Both Mo Xiaochuan and Mo Xiaochuan felt that it was a pity that they did not make friends before.While talking, both of them turned their eyes to Mo Xiaochuan, seeing Situ Yuer drinking with him.Lu Shang shook his head, Situ Yu'er is a girl, so it's not easy to drink too much, and Mo Xiaochuan is quite gentle when drinking.Their drinking method did not catch Lu Shang's eyes.

After gulping down a bowl of wine, Lu Shang laughed and said, "Brother Situ, your little sister seems to be interested in the young commander."

"Not necessarily." Situ Xiong looked at the two of them, shook his head, and said, "Little sister is too playful. She was often locked up in the mansion by her father when she was young. She didn't have many friends. Brother Shaochuan was also the first friend she met. , getting closer is natural and normal."

"Brother Situ, my old Lu is very accurate in seeing women." Lu Shang smiled maliciously, patted his chest, and said, "I don't think it's just for friendship."

"Impossible. They haven't known each other for less than a month." Situ Xiong was a little puzzled. He glanced at the little girl and saw her holding a wine bowl with a smile on her face, whispering something to Mo Xiaochuan. The appearance is indeed a little different, combined with Lu Shang's words, I can't help being a little suspicious, frowned, waved my hands and said: "Don't worry about them, drink!" After taking a sip of wine, he said: "If the younger sister really has such thoughts, As the eldest brother, I will definitely help her. If I hadn’t met Brother Shaochuan before, I would have refused to agree to it, now..." At this point, he drank all the wine in the bowl, and said with a smile: "Let them... ..."

"Sure enough." Lu Shang raised his thumb and generously threw out other girls, saying, "Brother Situ is right. When I first met the young commander, he was like a ball of mud. Not strong enough to fall into the eyes of Lao Lu, but after getting along these days, Lao Lu has nothing to say to him."

The two of them talked about Mo Xiaochuan one by one, but Mo Xiaochuan didn't pay attention to it. Ever since Situ Xiong told the story about Xia Chuyue leaving Mei's guard with him, he always felt that there was something wrong with it. At the same time, his eyes dimmed a lot, and he talked to Situ Yu'er without saying a word, and his mind had drifted to Mei's house.

At this time, the Mei family was not at peace either. Butler Wang's face was gloomy. The captain of the guard had already been reprimanded by him and dared not speak. He stood aside with a face full of grievances.

In fact, Wang Steward also knew in his heart that the captain of the guard could not be completely blamed for this matter, or that he was too self-indulgent. After all, he was just a guard of Yimei's family, and he dared not take a casual action against Situ Xiong.What puzzled him most now was whether Situ Xiong's appearance was just a coincidence, or was Situ Qing also involved.Situ Qing is the son of the Situ family. He was relegated to Los Angeles as the prefect because he caused trouble when he was young and offended the patriarch. Ren cannot be underestimated.

Now it can be confirmed that the Fang family and Xia family headed by Xiangguo have shown some actions towards Mei Shichang. If the Situ family joins in again, unless Mei Shichang raises his troops to rebel, the Mei family will have no spare power to resist. It is more difficult for Mei Shichang to raise his troops than to kill him.

Butler Wang sighed softly. There is no news about Xia Chuyue so far, so it might be hard to find her. As for Tang Enli lying on the bed, Butler Wang didn't bother to pay attention to it. After thinking about it, he couldn't figure it out. Slowly got up, glanced at the captain of the guard, and said in a low voice: "Get up. Prepare the car and go to the prefect's mansion."

Not long after Steward Wang left Mei Mansion, Xia Chuyue's figure appeared in the private house next to Mei Mansion. No matter how smart Steward Wang was, he would never have thought that this woman was so bold that she would hide under his nose.

"Madam, I have sent that thing to Deng Chaoqun according to your instructions." The maid said in a low voice.

The fascination on Xia Chuyue's face was gone, she nodded with a serious face, and said: "Okay, are all our people ready?"

"Everything has been arranged." The maid replied.

"Tell them not to move, don't let anyone find out." After Xia Chuyue said, there was a trace of disappointment on her face that had never appeared before.

"Yes!" replied the maid.

"Go down. I want to be alone." After the maid left, Xia Chuyue sat by the window alone.For Mei Shichang, she still respects Mei Shichang in her heart, but the Xia family is crumbling, and it is far from as beautiful as it seems on the surface. Only by bringing down Mei Shichang will the Xia family be able to stand up again.

For some reason, Xia Chuyue not only feels sorry for Mei Shichang, but also feels guilty for Mo Xiaochuan.Maybe because all he did was destroy his home.Although Xia Chuyue didn't regret destroying other people's homes for her own, she couldn't be so calm.However, Mei Shichang is not a martial artist. Facing this fat man with both civil and military skills, Xia Chuyue is not completely sure, so her guilt is only fleeting, because she knows that she has not won yet, and only a winner deserves it. Qualified for sympathy, the loser can only accept sympathy.

Taking a deep breath, Xia Chuyue raised her head and looked at the sky, the dark clouds in the sky slowly gathered, the coolness of the cold winter finally passed, spring and summer alternated, and the rainy season was coming.

"Go faster!" Steward Wang, who also felt that the heavy rain was coming, couldn't help but urged.

The servant added a whip, and his speed suddenly increased. The guards followed closely behind, and the heavy armor made a neat sound as they ran.From time to time, people looked around on the street, and even the people of Los Angeles seemed to have noticed the abnormalities these days.

In front of the eunuch's mansion, the guards knocked on the door for a long time before a servant came out and replied indifferently: "My master is not feeling well. I don't see you for a while. You can come back another day."

Steward Wang frowned, leaned out of the sedan chair, and said, "I'm sorry, please go and report again, and say that I have something important to ask."

The servant looked at Steward Wang and said, "Wait a moment." After saying that, he closed the door again.

Butler Wang waited outside. Not long after this time, the servant opened the door again: "Master said, I won't see you for a while, you should come back later." Then, the servant pointed to the left side by closing the door. direction.

"Thank you, brother!" Steward Wang nodded, looked at the alley on the left, got out of the carriage, and said to the captain of the guard, "You go to the front street and wait for me first."

The captain of the guard agreed and led the people towards the street ahead.

Steward Wang saw that there was no one around, and then walked into the alley on the left, where there was a side door that was not commonly used in the prefect's mansion.Seeing Steward Wang coming, a person ran from the side door and said in a low voice, "My lord, please discuss in detail with Steward Wang in the room."

"Thank you." Steward Wang followed the man into the mansion. Just as the side door was closed, a person jumped down from the canopy beside him. He glanced at the side door with a look of doubt on his face. Immediately, he jumped up again on the canopy.

Entering the eunuch's mansion, Steward Wang followed the man straight to the study room, pushed open the door, Situ Qing was sitting on a grand teacher's chair, with one right leg resting on the armrest, sitting very casually, without any appearance of a prefect, seeing Steward Wang came in, waved lightly, and the man who led Steward Wang backed out, and closed the door tightly.

Steward Wang was about to come forward to pay respects, when Situ Qing waved his big hand and said, "Speak frankly, I don't have the time to grind my teeth with you."

"Since the prefect speaks quickly, the old slave will not be around the corner." Steward Wang straightened his body and said, "The old slave came today and only asked for an answer. Today, Mr. Situ stopped the guards of the Mei residence, causing Mrs. Xia to get lost. , so far I can't find anyone, but it's under the orders of the prefect?"

"The old man already knows about this matter. When the boy comes back, the old man will naturally discipline him. You tell Mei Shichang, my Situ family only wants to be safe, and I don't want to participate in the battle between the court and China, let alone the military power in the northern border. Although the old man can't understand him His face, but we still know who he is, otherwise, he wouldn't have stopped interfering in the affairs of Los Angeles for so many years." Situ Qing stood up and said, "However, don't expect me to help you. Situ's family is having a hard time in Youzhou, and they don't want to make enemies. That's all for now, please go back."

"With the eunuch's words, this old slave will know what to do." Steward Wang nodded, and said, "I just hope that the eunuch can restrain the young master, and don't let him go out at will, so as not to be deliberately disturbed by others. Come on."

"I don't need you to teach me how to take care of my son." With a cold face, Situ Qing shouted loudly, "Seeing off the guests."

As soon as Situ Qing's words fell, the door was pushed open, and the person who led the way looked at Butler Wang and said softly, "Please."

Butler Wang flicked his sleeves and strode out.The man sent him to the side door, smiled and said: "It's easy to go!" Then he closed the door.

Steward Wang stood in front of the door, frowning. Situ Qing's words were very clear. However, for a person like him, who was worried beforehand, it was impossible for him to believe in Situ Qing so easily.However, according to what Situ Qing said, although he has been at odds with Mei Shichang these years, he has never made things difficult for Mei Shichang in business. The above can be regarded as an explanation of the position.

Just as Steward Wang was hesitating, suddenly, the canopy on the side shook lightly, and then, a cold light shot out, heading straight for his vest.Butler Wang's complexion changed slightly, he turned sideways suddenly, and then threw out his right hand, "Ding!" With a crisp sound, there was an extra dagger in Wang Butler's hand, and after the cold light touched the dagger, he was knocked down to the side.

Before Butler Wang had a chance to catch his breath, a figure suddenly jumped down from the canopy of the tree, and a long sword in his hand came straight to Butler Wang's right chest.

Originally, the move had already been made by the old Steward Wang's feet, but the man suddenly retreated for more than half a foot, and at the same time the dagger in his right hand went straight up, "Ding!" There was another crisp sound, and the long sword was swung out , Steward Wang took the opportunity to make a move, but the man seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and he retreated after missing a hit, and the distance between the two of them opened several feet in an instant.

"An ordinary housekeeper's martial arts has actually reached the level of a master. The Mei Mansion is indeed Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon." A deep voice came.

Looking along the prestige, I saw that the man was dressed in gray cloth, his face was also covered with a gray cloth, and he was wearing a hat. He couldn't see his face clearly, but his voice sounded like a middle-aged man, and Steward Wang didn't ask what he was. People, because he knew that the other party would definitely not talk, and he was too lazy to talk nonsense, he just said in a cold voice, "Let's go, or fight?"

"Haha..." The man smiled heartily, and said: "With your martial arts, I am naturally no match for you, but you can't keep me. This battle will be reserved for the future." After finishing speaking, he jumped forward, It quickly disappeared at the end of the street.

Steward Wang picked up the hidden weapon and looked at it in front of his eyes. It seemed a little familiar, but he couldn't remember seeing it there before. He put it in his arms, put away the dagger, and walked out of the alley. Seeing his figure, the captain of the guard hurried up to meet him.Steward Wang got into the carriage a little tiredly, and said lightly: "Go back home!"——
