Chen Ang led dozens of riders and walked southward with light clothes. A few days later, he arrived in Suzhou. Although there were post stations along the way, the days of running around had made everyone exhausted and had to find another place to rest.
The warm wind in Wuxi City is warm, pedestrians are bustling to and fro, it is very prosperous, a group of people are dressed in official clothes, and no one dares to step forward to provoke them without good eyesight. After inquiring about the famous Songhe Tower in Wuxi, where the wine is fragrant and the meat is full, it is a must in Wuxi, so I immediately led the horse to go. Sure enough, not far away, you can smell the aroma of caramel, soy sauce mixed with cooked meat.
A group of travel-stained people could tell at a glance that they were guests from afar, and the waiter had a keen eye. Seeing Chen Ang's brocade robes, he set up a high-quality Accord by himself, and served more than a dozen meat dishes. He took a few red-clothed knights and sat down on the other side, and gave up the best cubicle to Chen Ang, Huang Chang and a group of big inner guards.
The two big inner guards have suffered a lot in the past few days. They are self-identified in martial arts. Unexpectedly, all of the Longxiang guards are better than them. Chen Ang saw it in his eyes and was shocked in his heart. It is so high that it has reached an unimaginable state, and I never dare to be negligent.
At this moment, the situation is stable for the time being, and the two hurriedly stepped forward to please them: "The governor has great martial arts skills, and now he has leveled the martial arts forest in the Central Plains. Those dozens of green forests and high villages are said to be old bandits. They haven't done any great work, but now the governor's horseshoe has arrived, and the Jincheng Tangchi has been wiped out in ashes, and the power has shocked the martial arts for thousands of miles."
Chen Ang heard their flattery, but there was no joy on his face. The two of them were dizzy in a hurry. They had become bodyguards in the palace, and their martial arts hadn't improved half a point, but they had learned a lot of slippery things. Next, dare to say anything.
One of the guards whispered: "The Beggar Gang is the number one gang in the world. There are so many masters in the gang, and their ears and eyes are all over the world. Now the governor wants to break it? In the Central Plains, the governor ordered the ban on martial arts. Although the Beggar Gang It's still a big scene, it's ridiculous that the tree is about to fall and they don't know it yet, when the governor arrives and the wolves run away, that's the best ending for them."
Chen Ang secretly sighed, this officialdom is really a place to raise disabled people, when these two people were in the arena, they still had a bit of arrogance, what is the difference between them and a villain now, compared to Murong Fu's four great generals, they are all worse I don't know how many, let alone martial arts heroes compared to the members of the beggar gang.
He tasted the food on the table slowly, put down his chopsticks after a long time, and said quietly to the two people who were flattering and desperately leaking military information: "The beggars have eyes and ears all over the world. You say that, have you considered the feelings of the brothers of the beggars?" ?"
"The imperial court sent us here to reward the loyalty of the Beggar Gang and at the same time promote the harmonious development of the Beggar Gang. Although it is necessary to investigate the suspected assassination of Mr. Cai by the Beggar Gang, in the overall situation, we believe that the Beggar Gang was deceived by a small group of scum. Yes. When you say that, you really don’t consider the feelings of the beggar brother next door at all!"
Before the words fell, everyone stood up in silence and looked at the bird screen beside them. Suddenly, there was a crash sound behind them, and several people looked back in surprise. Only Huang Chang and Chen Ang looked at the place with a smile. , I saw a black shadow jumping out from under the bird screen, tapped a little under the window sill, and the whole person shot out like a sharp arrow.
The black shadow snatched the horses tied to them in the yard, and galloped out of the city. The red-clothed knights next to them heard the sound and ran over one after another. !"
"No hurry, settle the bill first!" Chen Ang laughed.
After the two of them heard this, their eyes were completely dark. This Songhe Tower was clearly the property of the Beggar Clan to snoop on the news, and Chen Ang actually wanted to pay the bill, "We are court officials. We are away from home. We want to maintain the image of the court and eat the overlord's meal. This kind of thing is absolutely impossible to do. You have to keep in mind."
Chen Ang leisurely explained the truth to them, and under the fiery eyes of the two, he slowly followed the official road. The disciple of the beggar gang was so desperate that he was not on the official road, but was advancing by a small road, Chen Ang Waiting for the new horses to be replaced, chasing after his tired old horse, unexpectedly only stopped his back outside the apricot forest.
The man's breath was short and unsteady, because Chen Ang broke his turtle's breathing technique just now in the Songhe Tower. Now he is trying his best to run for several miles, but he is already out of breath. He just ran in front of Qiao Feng. Just fell down.
Chen Ang stood leisurely on the high hill, looking at the mess, the beggar gang was divided into two groups, opposing each other, and several elders stood aside, the atmosphere was extremely strange. Seeing Qiao Feng's blood-stained Baina linen clothes, Chen Ang was majestic and undiminished, and he couldn't help but secretly admired, a good man, a great hero.
Qiao Feng clasped his fists at Chen Ang, and asked in a deep voice: "Who is under your feet? What's the matter here at the gathering place of my beggar gang?". Everyone at the scene looked over one after another, their eyes were uncertain, only Duan Yu, a stunned young man, greeted Chen Ang with a smile.
Chen Ang smiled slightly, and said: "My servant, Great Song Suwutang, Chen Ang, the governor of the Forbidden Army, has met Qiao Gangzhu!"
The gangsters who were present had just heard of his name, and they were in an uproar for a moment, and everyone in the Beggar Gang was even more suspicious, thinking to themselves: Is it possible that the imperial court is really going to attack the Beggar Gang? For the imperial court, people in the martial arts have mixed feelings. On the one hand, they are faintly opposed to the imperial court, and on the other hand, they have feelings of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.
He couldn't stand the shackles of the court's laws, but he was loyal.
At this time, Chen Ang appeared on the stage as the governor of the imperial court, interfering in the affairs of the Jianghu, which had never happened before. For a while, most of the people here were a little at a loss. They didn't know what attitude they should take to face Chen Ang.
The Beggar Gang and the imperial court have a long history of cooperation. Although the relationship is not close, they are not hostile. Qiao Feng said neatly: "Since you are a brother of the imperial army, you might as well sit down. Today, all the heroes of the martial arts world will witness my life experience. The position of the leader of the beggar gang should also be witnessed by the court."
He turned to face the members of the Beggar Clan, and said with a big smile: "Qiao and all the brothers of the Beggar Clan are on good terms. They drank alcohol, ate dog meat, and fought against the Liao Dynasty together. You are willing to recognize me as a brother, and Qiao Feng deeply understands it. Now my life experience is unknown. , the position of leader of the beggar gang cannot be held no matter what."
"I just hope that you brothers, after I, Qiao Feng, can eliminate the estrangement as much as possible. The Beggar Gang is the largest gang in the Jianghu, with a great reputation. Who in the martial arts does not respect? The brothers in the gang should also be as close as a family. Don't worry." Don't let outsiders see the joke."
What he said was very sincere, the group of beggars originally valued loyalty, and they all felt ashamed after hearing it. Qiao Feng was magnanimous, even though he had suffered great changes, he showed no expression of resentment, when he was about to leave, he was still thinking of the beggars' gang, and he respectfully gave the dog-beating stick to the elder Chuan Gong.
Unexpectedly, he turned around and left like this. Seeing that he had undergone a great change, not only did they not look desolate, but their bones were strong and their backs were straight. Looking at the patchwork clothes stained with blood, they were filled with grief.
Then someone yelled: "Guild leader, don't leave!" "The beggar gang depends on you to take charge of the overall situation!" "Guild leader, come back!"
Chen Ang couldn't help shaking his head and sighing: "Since Qiao Daxia has stepped down as the head of the beggar gang, please hurry up and discuss a charter. Mr. Cai Jingcai, the secretary of the household department, was hacked to death at home with the dragon's palm. The beggar gang needs to give an explanation to the imperial court."
As soon as this remark came out, the disciples of the Beggar Clan present all stared angrily, only Elder Xu pondered for a moment, and said in a clear voice: "That's a good statement, this gang can't live without an owner for a day, Qiao... After Qiao Feng left, the big issue in this gang needs someone The decision is, this is a matter of urgency. It's better to return our innocence."
Chen Ang went on to say: "You are slow to choose the position of the gang leader. No matter who it is, he will always go to the six doors with me and give an explanation." Everyone, who doesn't regard going to the six gates as a shame and a great shame. Seeing him being so humiliated, someone immediately objected: "Why did the imperial court arrest our leader?"
"It's not to resist the arrest of your leader, but Master Cai is dead. You should have an explanation for the six doors. Please let your leader go and accommodate. Could it be that the royal officials died in vain like this?" Chen Ang explained road.
"You want to avenge the vice-leader Ma of the beggar gang, and we also want to arrest the murderer who killed Mr. Cai. We must understand the court."
After everyone heard this, they also felt that this was a good point, but they were absolutely unwilling to ask them to hand over their leader. Immediately, Elder Xu hesitated and said: "The leader of this clan has not yet been decided, and I can only ask adults to take care of this matter."
"I don't care, it's just that you are above the court, you can't afford to wait." Chen Ang said leisurely: "I don't make things difficult for you, within three months, you just bring the real culprit to the six doors."
Elder Xu hesitated and said: "The gang is in great chaos, I'm afraid three months is not enough time!"
Chen Ang sneered: "Elder Xu is trying to bargain with me?"
Elder Xu panicked and said: "Don't dare, dare not!" Seeing his groveling appearance and thinking of Qiao Feng's heroism and generosity, the disciples of the Beggar Clan felt that it was worthless.
Chen Ang acted like a court official like this, not to mention being arrogant, but he was domineering, but he annoyed a person, only to see someone take a step forward, waved a folding fan and said: "No, no! This Dragon Subduing Palm , you can practice it too, I can practice it too, there is no way to explain it, look at my move, is it the subduing dragon palm!"
It turned out that it was Bao BuTong. He was uprooted by Chen Ang because of the green forest forces of Murong's family. He was in a state of desperation, so he was delayed. Seeing Chen Ang wearing an official uniform, he couldn't help but sneer.
I saw him laughing loudly, leaping forward suddenly, striking the apricot tree with both hands vigorously, beating the surrounding trees tremblingly, and falling leaves rustlingly. After reaching the eighth floor, the palm strength is really strong.
Seeing this, Chen Ang burst out laughing, making Bao BuTong very puzzled. He sarcastically said, "My palm may have scratched your itchy spot. What are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing. I finally have a way to close the case!" Chen Ang sneered: "So it's the Murong family's dead son, since you said you can subdue the dragon's palm, then what are you waiting for, the real culprit is you!"
All the people present were shocked. They only heard that the court handles cases and often turns black and white, pointing out that good people are the real culprits. They didn't expect this person to be so shameless, so shameless and so natural.
