Qiu Yi was very happy when he saw that the plan was mostly successful, but he calmed down and pretended to be "Quan Budong" and said: "Father-in-law, can you invite other officers and soldiers to come over, drink the students a sip of wine, and eat the students a sip of meat? That would be a great honor to the student. The student also has a merciless request, and wants to ask my father-in-law for help... "

While stirring the mutton foam in his mouth, Jin Deqiang replied: "It's easy to talk about. If you have anything to do, Mao Caigong just tell me!"

"Quan Budong" scratched his head and said with a smile: "My father-in-law just now said that I can speak in front of the current Holy Emperor. The students did not dare to disturb the Holy Emperor's hearing. They only thought about whether they could be introduced by the father-in-law and get to know several officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs. , if the student fails the provincial examination next year, it would be a good idea to make a donation.”

"So they came to me to buy an official position!" Jin Deqiang thought to himself, but he smiled and said: "Why is Mr. Maocai so anxious? When he comes to Beijing to take the exam next year, he can come to the Zajia family. The Zajia family is not very capable, and the officials in the Ministry of Personnel are not I know a few people who can speak well, but I know a lot of the examiners from the Ministry of Rites. When the time comes, I can introduce them to Maocai Gong, and I can certainly ensure that Maocai Gong is filial and honest!"

After Qiu Yizhi heard this, he secretly speculated: The Ministry of Personnel was originally in charge of the eldest son of the emperor, Zheng Chang, while the Ministry of Rites was in charge of the current emperor Zheng Yao, who was the second son of the emperor at that time. This eunuch kept saying that he was alienated from the Ministry of Personnel but was familiar with the Ministry of Rites. , and it is indeed reasonable - but it shows from the side that he has been moved by his small favor.

So Qiu Yizhi, who pretended to be "Quan Budong", showed an expression of great joy on his face and said: "Then my father-in-law is the student's great benefactor! It's just... It's just that my father-in-law is often around the emperor on errands. After the student comes to Beijing, I don't know where he will go." How can the government find my father-in-law?"

Jin Deqiang thought to himself: Although the young scholar in front of him is honest and a person who is keen on fame, his identity as the "Charity Secretary" cannot be clearly stated to him, so he said carefully: "The family name is Jin, and the nickname is Deqiang." , and there are some connections among the various ministries. After Maocai Gong came to Beijing, he randomly found a soldier official from the Ministry of Etiquette or the Ministry of Punishment and told him that it was you, 'Brother Quan', who came to see Jin Deqiang, and the Za family naturally came to meet him without saying a word!"

Quan Budong became more and more happy after hearing this. He personally poured half a bowl of wine for Jin Deqiang and said, "Then the student will first serve his father-in-law with a bowl of wine! The student will do it first as a token of respect!"

While Qiu Yizhi and Jin Deqiang were talking back and forth with their own agendas, a group of people suddenly broke into the ruined Taoist temple. They were all holding wooden sticks, hoes and other objects, standing in the main hall of the Taoist temple without saying a word. He looked at Qiu Yizhi.

Qiu Yizhi, pretending to be "Quan Budong", immediately stood up, staring at the visitor with an angry and surprised expression, and cursed: "Zhao Heizi, come out! Tell me what you have to say!"

When Jin Deqiang saw this, he felt like he was in a fog. He couldn't help but stop eating and watch the changes.

I saw the group of people who broke in, about twenty or so, all strong men, and a few of them had ferocious faces, and they were not good people at first glance. But I saw one of them, who was dark and strong, stepped forward and said, "What? What do you want from me, Quan Budong?"

"Hmph! Why do you mean I'm looking for you? I've long heard that you, Zhao Heizi, have gone to the mountains to become bandits. In today's wind and rain, in the ruins of the world, I'm afraid you made a special trip to find me, right?" Quan Budong asked.

"What? Your Quan family is rich, so the whole world belongs to your Quan family? On this rainy day, you are only allowed to keep warm here, but you are not allowed to take shelter here?" He used the nickname "Zhao Heizi" Zhao Chengxiao also pretended not to give in at all.

Quan Budong seemed a little afraid of Zhao Heizi, and sighed: "Okay, okay! Even if you are right, why can't I hide if I can't offend him?" After that, he went to still sitting on the ground with roast mutton. Jin Deqiang said, "Student, I'm sorry. You and I had a good chat today. Let's meet again if we are destined to meet again!" After saying that, he called the waiter he had brought with him to set off.

Zhao Heizi chuckled and said, "Don't be busy. It's rare for us to get together, why don't we talk?"

Quan Budong glared angrily and said, "What do I have to say to you? A good dog doesn't block the way. I still have things to do, so get out of my way!"

"Hahaha!" Zhao Heizi laughed, "I'm going to be a mangy dog today, but I have to stop you and not let you go, what do you think? I want to ask you, on this rainy day, you, a young man, will come to me What are you doing in Zhaojiazhuang?"

"You, you have nothing to do with it!" Quan Budong shouted angrily, and urged his men to pack their bags and leave in the rain.

Zhao Heizi looked like a scoundrel and said, "Don't think I don't know. You are going to propose marriage to my fourth cousin today. Do you want to marry my sister?"

"So what? Miss Zhao and I are in love, and it's our parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. Do you care?" Quan Budong said.

"Bah! Don't think that you're a great scholar just because you passed the exam, and you still talk to me in a polite manner. Let me tell you, you are as powerful as a little scholar in the East District. I think there are many more bastards like you in Luohe. Isn't that right? Do you think you have some money at home? I'm going to beat up this dandy like you today!" Qiu Yizhi and Zhao Chengxiao had originally arranged this, but after all, Zhao Chengxiao had been a bandit for several years. Yes, when it came out of his mouth, there was no violation at all.

"Okay, okay, I won't argue with you. Anyway, I am married to Miss Zhao." After saying that, he walked past Zhao Heizi. Unexpectedly, Zhao Heizi stretched out his hand and pushed him down to the ground.

When the servants brought by Quan Budong saw their master being beaten, they immediately stood up in anger and started fighting with the men. This farce was arranged by Qiu Yi - deliberately making it look like Zhao Heizi had prepared early, while Quan Butong hurriedly responded - so in just a moment, everyone brought by Quan Butong had been killed by Zhao Heizi and others. The people were pinned to the ground one by one and were not allowed to move.

When Zhao Heizi saw it, a smile slowly appeared on his face, he stepped lightly on Quan Budong's chest, and cursed: "What? Do you still want to leave? Can you leave? I am in a good mood today, as long as you make a decision Just tell me you won’t marry my sister again in this life, and I will let you go!”

Qiu Yi saw that although Zhao Chengxiao put one foot on her body, he did not dare to exert any force. In fact, it was flying in the air. The other foot was trying hard to maintain the independent posture of the golden rooster, as if he would lose his balance if he was not careful.

Qiu Yizhi was lying on the ground, looking at Zhao Chengxiao's appearance. He felt funny in his heart and laughed out loud: "How can there be such a document in the world? What if I don't write it? What can you do to me?"

"Don't write? If you don't write, I'll kill you here! No one in this wilderness knows that it was me, Zhao Heizi, who committed the crime!" Zhao Heizi looked around, his eyes finally stopped on Jin Deqiang and the others, and said, " And you guys, if you are unlucky, I will burn paper for you today!"

Jin Deqiang was not a fool. He had heard it clearly from the sidelines. It turned out to be just a jealous fight. He originally had the important task of escorting Dai Luanxiang to Beijing, and he didn't want to get involved, but he saw that Zhao Heizi became more and more rampant, even to the point of killing people, and even hurting himself.

This Jin Deqiang was already a domineering and arrogant person, but when he saw it, he could no longer bear it in his heart. He slowly stood up, shook his clothes, and said to Zhao Heizi: "Your name is Zhao Heizi, right? You don't even open your eyes." Look, what are you wearing?" Everyone around him also stood up and gathered around Jin Deqiang.

Zhao Heizi took off his feet from Quan Budong, took a few steps closer, took a closer look, and said nonchalantly: "Aren't they just a few servants of the imperial court? If I kill one today, I will still kill, and if I kill ten, I will still kill; if I kill a commoner, I will kill." It’s also killing, so is killing a corrupt official like this? Are you just trying to scare people by wearing a dog’s skin?”

Quan Budong, who was lying on the ground, sat up with difficulty and said: "Eunuch, hurry up, there is no reason to talk nonsense with Zhao Heizi. He is not a good person. He has made friends with many gangsters. He really dares to kill officials!"

Jin Deqiang didn't expect Quan Budong to be so righteous, but he ignored him, took out a black wood token with gold characters from his arms, waved it in front of Zhao Heizi's eyes, and said, "Huh! You think we are from the county government." A thug? Look what this is!”

Zhao Heizi curled his lips and said: "What the hell are you a black thing? I can't read, and the guy in my hand can't read either, but I still killed you!"

"Haha! He turns out to be a rough guy. No wonder Miss Zhao looks down on you!" Jin Deqiang laughed twice, and then his face returned to seriousness: "Forget it, you kid can't read. Have you ever heard of the name 'Guanshan Division'? ?”

Zhao Heizi was stunned after hearing this, and said in shock: "Guan Shan Si? Why are Quan Shan Si here? Don't bluff! Hey, you are so old and don't have a beard, are you really the eunuch of Kuan Shan Si?"

Seeing his expression, Jin Deqiang felt proud, put away the token, and said: "You kid, it's okay to be afraid. Master, I feel happy today. You turn around and leave. Promise never to offend this Maocai Gong again, Master." Maybe I’ll spare your life!”

Before Zhao Heizi could answer, someone walked out beside him. I saw that the man was short in stature, but tall and muscular. His shaved head was particularly eye-catching. He shyly cursed: "Who do you think I am? It turns out to be a minion of the Guanshan Division. Let me tell you, I can kill you." You bastards of the Shansi Department!" The one who spoke was the iron-headed dragon under Zhao Chengxiao.

After all, this iron-headed dragon had never seen much of the world, and he only spoke half of the lines he had spoken before. Zhao Chengxiao, who was beside him, felt anxious after hearing this, and said for him: "This is the Mountain King on Stone Forest Mountain, are you afraid? "

After being reminded by him, Tietou Jiao also said: "Yes! I am the one who is nicknamed Mountain Eagle because of the grass that fell on the Stone Forest Mountain! Huh! I'm not afraid that you don't know my name, but I'm afraid that you have no background. What an injustice!"

The last two sentences were newly added by Tietou Jiao. It turns out that this bandit killed people and stole goods because he was afraid that the victim would identify him. Otherwise, if the government traced him, he would be haunted by the ghost of the deceased, which would not be fun. But when Qiu Yi was making plans, he insisted on adding these two sentences. Tietou Jiao privately felt that it was inappropriate, but he did not dare to tell Qiu Yi Ming, so he subconsciously included these two sentences.

Jin Deqiang did not hear the flaw in it, and said with a ferocious smile: "You dare to leave your name when you do bad things. You are a man, but it is a pity that your life is short." After that, he greeted the dozen people he brought with him and said, "Young man Hey guys, don’t stand still and kill me if you don’t copy me!”

After hearing his greeting, the minions of the Guanshan Division quickly agreed, took out the official swords they carried with them, and killed Zhao Heizi, Tietou Jiao and others. But how did they know that these people were not ordinary bandits. Ever since they came down from Yunmeng Mountain, followed Qiu Yi to several places in the capital city of Luoyang, fought against the world-famous general Dai Luanxiang, and been personally instructed by the leader of the martial arts league, Wei Chi Lianghong, they were no longer what they used to be.

Although these soldiers from the Good Encouragement Division were armed with sharp blades, they had no power to fight back, and they were all knocked to the ground easily.

The iron-headed dragon, whose pseudonym was "Zuoshandiao", was happy to see it. He laughed "hahahahaha" several times and cursed at Jin Deqiang who was standing there blankly: "Damn eunuch, I think it is you who will live longer today or I will." ?” (To be continued)
