Chapter Eight

"Are you acting as an insider again?" Qian Yiqun asked bluntly.

When Qian Yiqun asked this, Hong Niang remembered what happened on Taihu Lake that day. At that time, Li Yan wanted to use a knife to kill people and turned the tables. Who knew that Qian Yiqun told him without any particularity and watched the show on the side. This time, he wouldn't be using the same trick again, right? Hong Niang was secretly worried.

"This time you don't have to worry that I will reveal your identity." Qian Yiqun saw the gloomy face of the Hongniang, and knew that she had thought of a bad thing, so he quickly analyzed it for her: "Because you had to fight hard, otherwise I would rather destroy the fan than give it to Li Yan."

When the Hong Madam thought, this is indeed the reason. Since she was going to attack behind the scenes, it would be no longer necessary for Qian Yiqun to shout, so she would have to show her position.

Seeing that the Hong Madam looked relieved, Qian Yiqun knew that she had figured it out, so he asked with a smile: "How many people are there in the thief?"

"There are only 500 people who can fight. Among these 500 people, they will be intercepted from all over the country and set up ambushes on the periphery to prevent the Zheng family from leaving. The number of people who attacked the garden is about 200." said Hong Niangzi.

Zheng Yuanxun felt nervous when he heard this. Where did the Zheng family find so many servants to fight against so many people?

"How many people can you send?" Qian Yiqun asked.

"One hundred," added the Hongniangzi, "elite."

"So many people, how did you pass through the prefecture without being surrounded by the imperial soldiers?" Qian Yiqun walked on the road with three girls and was investigated. They could actually whistle by like this.

"Because..." The Hongniang smiled, "The chickens don't let the water go, each has their own way. Taoist priest, don't ask too much."

This slang is interesting. Qian Yiqun was happy and said with a smile: "Then I'll be working."

Given the cooperation relationships between us in the past, there is no need to discuss the specific cooperation methods. Because the more discussions, the more opportunities there will be for each other to trick each other. The so-called intrigue is truly reflected in Qian Yiqun and Li Yan.

They simply fight for their own efforts and do whatever they want. They can only blame themselves for being cheated and sold.

Qian Yiqun didn't think he would be the one who was cheated, because no matter what Li Yan played, his worst situation was that he was attacked by the joint force of bandits and water thieves.

In terms of force, the Zheng family is indeed vulnerable, but Qian Yiqun is quite confident.

Because he knows human nature and has prepared a powerful tool for human nature.

The film garden was built on Changyu, surrounded by water and built walls along the water. It was impossible for bandits to land in the depths of the water to fight, so they could only attack from the main gate. If they could not even conquer the main gate, it would naturally be safer and more reliable. Qian Yiqun had no research on the fortifications and wanted to suggest Zheng Yuanxun to buy some artillery, but he didn't know if this thing was controlled by the imperial court and did not dare to make any mistakes.

Zheng Yuanxun himself found an old soldier who had participated in the Imperial War in Renchen. He built some temporary wooden frames on the main entrance, which were used as wooden buildings, and found a scattering machine to stockpile the rolling wood and fall stones. It really looked like that.

Both the government and the Hui Commercial Association Hall clearly stated that they would send people to assist the Zheng family in suppressing the thieves.

Everyone thought that as long as they could hold on for a moment, reinforcements from Yangzhou City would come.

When night fell slowly, the sound of closed-door drums came from Yangzhou City. The scouts sent by the Zheng family came from a distance and a large number of bandits were approaching.

The bandits and bandits were unscrupulous and were marching on the official road.

Zheng Yuanxun was guarding the main gate. While sending people to the city to call the police, he cheered everyone up. This time, in order to guard the bandits, Zheng gave his servants extremely high treatment. Not only did he send out real money and silver, but he also promised to fight off the bandits. If someone got the bandit's head, the reward was as high as fifty taels!

There must be a brave man under heavy rewards. The Zheng family’s master spared no effort, and the servants below naturally refused to take care of themselves and sincerely wanted to gain wealth from these bandits.

Qian Yiqun only sent Qian Wei to guard the main gate and protect Zheng Yuanxun. He took three girls to the Danyan Shuyuyuan to protect Zheng Yuanxun's family. He set up a table at the entrance of the Danyan Shuyuyuan and placed a tea set. The lights were brightly lit around him, and he cooked tea by himself, very calm.

Zheng Hanxue has been lifted from house arrest and gathered with his mother and sister in his grandmother's building to accompany Mrs. Zheng.

"Old lady, the kind-hearted master is cooking tea in the yard, and he has never seen a sword in his hand." A maid was ordered to go out to find out the news, but in fact he just walked to the gate of the yard and looked away.

"The Taoist priest is really skillful and brave." Old Mrs. Zheng praised, "It is quite brave enough to have a discomfortable appearance when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him!"

Zheng Han Xueben felt that Qian Yiqun's "ten-man enemy" was not as good as the "world enemy" who turned iron into gold. At this moment, he was frightened by the worries and fears of his sisters, so he became afraid. After all, he was just a young boy in his early twenties, and had never been tempered and had an unstable mind.

Qian Yiqun didn't believe that he could really command the Tiance Guard, but think about it, Emperor Chongzhen and a foolish teenager like him should have a very common language.

The emperor was completely immune to words such as "five years of pacifying Liao", "towing a net on ten sides", "puffing chaos in March", etc., so "buying the three hundred years of peace in the Ming Dynasty" should make the emperor get goose bumps, and then patted Zheng Hanxue on the shoulder and said, "If this is all relied on Zheng Qing!"

What a great youth with cold wind and blood!

Qian Yiqun sat in the evening breeze, drinking tea and calmed down, and heard the shouts of killing in the wind. The shouts of killing were simple shouts of killing, without any wailing or moaning. It seemed that although the two sides fought, they did not cause any casualties.

Humans are very strange creatures. Sometimes they look as fragile as glass, and inexplicably, a life passes by. Sometimes they are like iron, letting them get dark and covered in blood, but they are all full of vitality and roar like thunder.

"Report! Report, report..." The servant who passed the message ran back strode, "Hundreds of bandits came outside, and they have already fought."

"I understand." Qian Yiqun said lightly, "Go and inquire again."

The servant supported his knees with both hands and took a long breath. Seeing that Qian Yiqun had no intention of rewarding him, he turned around and ran away, and his steps were obviously much slower.

Not long after the servant left, a tragic roar suddenly came from the back of the yard.

The tragic roar was extremely sharp, as if someone had a saw on his throat, and it was extremely penetrating. Even the Zheng family hiding in the building were trembling and creepy all over.

"Is this... what came from behind?" Zheng asked timidly. She was in poor health all year round and her qi and blood were weak. This time she was really frightened.

"Don't panic, my mother." Zheng Hanxue stepped forward and said, "The kind-hearted people are as good as gods. They have long been worried about the bandits' plan to attack the east and the west, so they personally guarded the door."

When Zheng heard this, he was in control of everything, so he stroked his chest and didn't say much. However, his face turned pale and there was no trace of blood.

The Zheng family pushed Zheng Hanxue's grandfather's generation and still had to carry a knife to fight with others to fight for salt. Therefore, Mrs. Zheng did not wince, looked at her second wife disdainfully and said, "Let's play horse hangers, and think about what kind of climate can those little ones make!" After hearing what the old lady said, the girls in the Zheng family were a little relieved. The maid took out the horse hangers and rubbed the cards to make a game.

Qian Yiqun didn't know that the people inside had already started playing mahjong, but he still sat upright, showing his noble style.

A long black and furry mouth came out of the dog's hole, which was a special shortcut for the fox.

"A thief came from behind." The fox ran to Qian Yiqun and whispered.

"I heard your screams. Don't be so scary next time, okay? There are old, weak, women and children in the room." Qian Yiqun glanced at the fox.

"That's not what we called!" The fox was angry, "It was because a secret whistle was shot by a powerful crossbow and his entire arm fell off."

"So powerful!" Qian Yiqun was shocked, "This is all considered a weapon controlled by the imperial court."

"Yes, yes, the court is not allowed to be a bandit!" the fox mocked, "Do we still want to stay here?"

"What are you afraid of? No matter how powerful they are, they are just a group of miscellaneous soldiers." Qian Yiqun said disdainfully, "Is there any Xuan cultivator mixed in it?"

"Originally, ninety percent would not have been there." The fox curled his lips, "But since you released the charming spirit in Baimeitu, God knows whether one or two supernatural people will appear."

"This..." Qian Yiqun said choking.

There seems to be no rule for possessing the charming spirit. It is as vulgar as Lao Wei, as cruel as Li Jian, as quiet as the wind, and as a playboy as Zheng Hanxue... These people have no common characteristics at all, as if the charming spirit is to count whoever they catch. In this way, there is also a few strong men possessed by the charming spirit among the bandits.

"You'd better be cautious." The fox said, "Bai Meitu caused a lot of trouble for the people of the world back then."

Qian Yiqun nodded and said yes.

The fox's ears shook and said, "They came so fast!"

Qian Yiqun immediately heard the footsteps coming from outside the yard. About twenty people were around, and it seemed that they were elite thieves.

Among these elite bandits, the leader was Xu Sanyan, the brother-in-law of Liu Jiusi of the Heavenly Monkey. This book was not his name, but his nickname. The reason for this nickname was that this person was extremely lustful. Any girl he loved three eyes could not escape his hand.

This book is not a good reputation, but Xu Sanyan is not ashamed of it, but rather proud. He is most willing to call him "Sanyan". Over time, it becomes a name.

This time, Xu Sanyan got the men and soldiers and wanted to flatten the movie garden. He was originally coming for this garden. When he heard that the Zheng family had not escaped, he became interested. Thinking about the girls he had used to, they were all secret prostitutes, widows, village girls and maids... They had never tasted the taste of those fine and tender official girls.

Therefore, he followed the advice of military advisor Li Yan and asked the brigade of troops to attack the main gate. He brought the elite people ashore from the waterway and rushed straight to the Zheng family's Danyan Shuyuyuan.
