It's just that Ling Zui has been causing trouble for so many years and was born and raised in the capital. How could he be dealt with by the heir apparent who just came to the capital? He waved his hand contemptuously, and the slaves behind him immediately brought out lime powder, firecrackers, blow darts, small crossbows, the hidden weapons necessary for melee combat... There was a dazzling array of everything, and some even used local materials, tearing off their sleeves and wrapping horse dung on the street towards them. The Zhenxi soldiers smashed them into the crowd...
In terms of strength, Kuang Qingwu's men would definitely beat Ling Zui's side. The problem is that although the street here is relatively wide, Qiu Yilan and his entourage, Ling Zui and his entourage, and the three parties have already blocked the road. The elite Suppressing West Army, who are cavalrymen, are incapable of charging!
The cavalry who couldn't charge were dusted with lime powder by their captains. Firecrackers went off wildly, and their mounts were frightened. The rhythm immediately entered the street melee that Ling Zui's master and servant are best at!
The skills honed in the cramped spaces of major brothels allowed Ling Zui and others to navigate the current chaos with ease - when the conductor was spreading lime on his slaves, he ordered someone to secretly notify Qiu Yilan and other female family members to get off the car and hide in the back. Then they threw firecrackers, stabbed people with hidden arrows, stabbed people in the back, threw horse dung... They did everything they could. From Kuang Qingwu to the Zhenxi Army, everyone who was used to regular battlefields was simply stunned!
It's just that the regular army is a regular army after all. After being embarrassed for a while and seriously injuring several men, as the commander of the soldiers made some arrangements, the Zhenxi Army, which formed a formation after abandoning its horses, quickly began to regain its disadvantage!
Seeing this, Ling Zui cursed a few times and ordered: "You all stand down and watch me kill these little bastards with poisonous smoke!"
The slaves agreed with a bang, threw out the remaining lime powder and other things in their hands, and then ran away!
The Zhenxi Army had fully witnessed his shamelessness in the melee just now. Hearing the word "poisonous smoke", he was immediately shocked and said loudly: "This is Zhang Guogong's eldest son, the grandson of the Queen Mother! You can't Don’t make the mistake of yourself!”
"I've mistaken your whole family!" Ling Zui took out a large bag of things from his arms, pointed in the direction to hit Kuang Qingwu, and cursed, "I am also the grandson of the Queen Mother, how come I didn't know that I have such a little bastard cousin? !”
Without waiting for another call, he had already rounded his arms and threw the thing out!
As soon as the bag fell to the ground, it suddenly burst into flames, causing a thick smoke billowing into the air and the stench hitting my nostrils... The Zhenxi Army was almost going crazy. They were holding Kuang Qingwu and running towards the back desperately, but they heard Ling Zui's arrogant smile came from the other side of the thick smoke: "You little bastard, you just don't get scared! They all ran away in just a handful of thick smoke... Let's take advantage of this opportunity and evacuate quickly!"
Co-authoring him is the queen of cheating!
Kuang Qingwu and others almost wanted to vomit blood!
But before he could give the order to mount his horse in pursuit, there was a sudden sound of galloping horses in the direction they were retreating!
In the blink of an eye, a young man in gorgeous clothes with a touch of ink stains on his sleeves rushed to the street with more than ten riders following closely behind him!
At a glance, he saw Kuang Qingwu and others blocking the road. The young man was about to turn his horse and pass by them. However, a knight behind him suddenly let out a sigh and said in a deep voice: "Sir, they are the West-Suppressing Army!"
"Take it!" The young man said two words, but did not rein in the reins. Instead, he urged the horse to speed up. After the start, the fire horse jumped directly over the heads of Kuang Qingwu and others who were lying on the ground to avoid the thick smoke. Passed by!
"Damn it!" Kuang Qingwu is as noble as a prince in the west. When has he ever suffered so much loss today? Just as he was about to scold him, unexpectedly, the young man led several riders and continued towards the thick smoke, but the remaining people laughed, drew their long knives, and surrounded them!
... At this time, Qiu Yilan had already exited the street and was drinking tea in a tea shop on the corner.
Ling Zui led his slaves back to the door of the tea shop. When he saw Shen Shui waving to him, he brushed off the dust on his clothes and walked over. He asked with a smile, "Is sister Ning Yi okay? Did she get bumped?"
Shen Shui smiled and said: "The princess is fine, she is drinking tea inside! Let me keep an eye on you here. Please come over when you are here."
Ling Zui happily entered the private room inside, Qiu Yilan poured him a cup of tea with her own hands, held it in his hands, and said with a smile: "Thanks to Brother Ling for seeing an uneven road today, otherwise I really don't know what to do. "In the past two years, because of Qiu Jinglan, she and Ling Zui have become familiar with each other, and she calls her brother when there are no outsiders - based on what Ling Zui has done today, she is worthy of this title.
Ling Zui was very pleased with what he said. He took the tea and drank it, and said, "Your cousin and I are brothers. His cousin is my cousin. Sister, you are making a big deal out of yourself by saying this."
Qiu Yilan smiled and said: "Yes, yes, I won't say this anymore...Brother Ling, why are you here today?" This area is a high-end residential area, but there is no Qinlou Chuguan. It is not your cup of tea at all? Of course, Qiu Yilan didn't doubt him when she thought so, she was just curious.
Hearing this, Ling Zui slapped the table and said angrily: "That little brat is so ignorant. He forgot about the business while cleaning him up." Then he asked, "Where is your cousin? You have been out of the city for several days and haven't returned. Miss Ruan is very worried. She had fallen ill at home. The Ruan family members had nothing to do. They asked me to come to my place this morning, and I said that I would come to run an errand for her... As a result, I finally got permission from my mother to leave the city, and then I received the news that you were back. I guess your cousin will send you back to Xihe Palace first, and then come over to tell him, but when you get there... who is he?"
Qiu Yilan said blankly: "Didn't he declare his identity just now? Didn't you return him?"
"Oh?" Ling Zui thought for a moment, "I didn't hear you clearly... I just replied casually. I don't remember what he said at that time."
"..." Qiu Yilan was silent for a moment and said quietly, "Kang Qingwu, the eldest son of Duke Zhang Guo."
Ling Zui was immediately confused: "Aunt Xingkang's nominal son?!"
Qiu Yilan nodded heavily: "That's him!"
"Hiss..." Ling Zui suddenly lamented, "It's over, it's over, why is he such a bastard?! He will definitely get beaten when he goes back now!"
Qiu Yilan felt very sorry and was about to say something to comfort her - but Ling Zui suddenly became arrogant again: "So what if it's him? If you dare to bully Sister Qiu in front of me, I'll deal with it just the same if it's Mr. Zhang Guogong!" She took the opportunity to use the title. One step further…
Qiu Yilan couldn't help but dumbfounded. This time she still didn't have time to speak. Ling Zui had already stood up and said solemnly: "Well, if Miss Ruan, you can bring it to your cousin. I think I'd better go outside the city first. It’s good to stay in Zhuangzi for a while... After ten days and a half, my mother thinks I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine if I come back!”
"... Uh, okay!" Qiu Yilan saw that he was worried that he would be dragged back by Marquis Jingchuan and Princess Maode to clean up if he left late, so she stood up quickly, "I'll give Brother Ling a few steps."
As a result, the two of them walked out of the tea shop while talking. They were met by several horses that were swept by the wind and rain. They stopped in front of the tea shop. The person in front was Jiang Yashuang. He jumped down just as his horse was about to retreat. Throwing the reins back, he walked up to Qiu Yilan in a few steps and asked eagerly: "Lanlan, are you okay?"
Although Ling Zui was eager to get out of the way, he couldn't help saying dissatisfied: "The place where Kuang Qingwu stopped Sister Qiu is only three blocks away from the Xihe Prince's Mansion and your home. Why did you come so late? If I hadn't happened to Come and find Chunjun, Sister Qiu is going to suffer a big loss today! I saw with my own eyes that bastard told the Zhenxi Army to come forward and use force on Sister Qiu!"
"Seriously?!" Jiang Yashuang became murderous and turned around to order, "Except for Kuang Qingwu, all those Zhenxi troops have been killed!" A knight nodded and turned his horse's head back to deliver the order!
He then explained, "I was practicing my calligraphy just now, and my servants actually planned to wait until I finished practicing my calligraphy before reporting it! I only found out after my eighteenth sister learned the news and rushed to my yard to tell her!"
Ling Zui interrupted again: "Why do you keep such a lookless servant? Let's just cut him off!" He asked Qiu Yilan again, "You think so, sister Qiu?"
"I can't spare him after I go back!" Jiang Yashuang bowed to him again and said gratefully, "Thank you so much, Mr. Ling Xiaohou, for today! There will be a generous reward in the future!"
Ling Zui waved his hand: "What are you thanking me for? Sister Qiu has called me brother for two years, so why do I need your thanks for protecting my own sister?"
At this time, the servant brought the horse to him, and he turned over and leaned over to tell Qiu Yilan worriedly, "Don't go out easily after you return home. That person named Kuang has made it clear that he deliberately caused trouble for you - it's all thanks to me today." He arrived in time and didn't see your face, otherwise God knows what would have happened... By the way, General Jiang, since you received the news that Kuang Qingwu was embarrassing Sister Qiu, why didn't you bring a few more people with you? That bastard’s Zhenxi Army is really tough. My subordinates are no match for them, but it’s your guards who came from the Zhenbei Army who are in charge..."
Jiang Yashuang said hurriedly: "Of course I will take them. Kuang Qingwu and those people have been captured - didn't I just order people to kill all those Zhenxi troops?"
Ling Zui perked up and asked, "Have everyone been captured?"
"Of course." Jiang Yashuang reciprocated his favor for helping Qiu Yilan, "Thanks to you for disrupting their formation, otherwise my family might not be able to stop everyone."
"That means that my father and mother won't know about this for a while." Ling Zui muttered to himself, then jumped off the horse and said, "Then drag that bastard over and ask, okay? What is he doing to trouble Sister Qiu? Even if there is any grudge, he is a man in his twenties and bullies a little girl who has not yet had hair extensions. How can his family be so thick-skinned?"
Jiang Yashuang was also eager to deal with Kuang Qingwu to vent her anger on her sweetheart, so she nodded immediately: "Bring him here!"
After a while, several knights placed Kuang Qingwu, who was tied into a rice dumpling, on his horse and dragged him - Kuang Qingwu was in such a state of embarrassment at this moment that the jade crown in his hair was gone. His hair was disheveled and he wore a brocade robe. His body was in tatters, with a burnt hole in the east and a splotch of blood on the west. There were also a few patches of black and blue on his cheeks. It was obvious that although the Jiang family guards did not dare to cut him with a knife, they did use some hidden tricks.
It's just that Kuang Qingwu was deliberately thrown to the ground by the guards, causing him to groan. After that, Jiang Yashuang ordered someone to cut off the rope on his body and let him stagger up. His expression turned out to be very calm, and he glanced at Jiang Ya. Shuang took the initiative and said: "You want to ask me why I am in trouble with Princess Ningyi? In fact, when I came to Beijing, my first priority was to participate in next year's examination, not to settle the accounts of old sesame seeds and rotten millet... This action was just to follow the wishes of some people. Now that I have failed, all the guards and slaves I brought out this time have been killed by you to vent your anger. I have nothing to say at this moment. Do you have any questions? Just write down whatever you want, and I’ll take care of it!”
With him being such a bachelor, Ling Zui's prepared ridicule was useless, and Jiang Yashuang laughed, with a cold smile: "How come you are so sure that you are Kuang Shihan's only son that we can't do anything to you?! "
"I have also heard of the hand that divides tendons and bones in the Zhenbei Army. It can make people unable to survive or die without damaging the foundation." Kuang Qingwu said indifferently, "But I have some news here. Maybe Can you just let me go?"
Ling Zui said loudly: "You bastard, let's talk first... I'll be happy to hear that. Do you want to let you go if you want?" Obviously he expected that he would definitely be beaten for what happened today, so he simply broke the jar and threw it. Mr. Chong has charged it to the end.
"Deng Yi, mother and son are safe and will arrive in Beijing soon!" Kuang Qingwu said calmly, "And he will immediately ask Princess Ningyi to come over... Don't count on King Xihe. King Xihe and his wife now regard Ruan Qingyan as a serious problem and want to put it aside. He died quickly - I think Princess Ning Yi should know the reason? It doesn't matter if you don't know, just ask your cousin!"
He asked slowly, "This news means that this matter will end here today. What do you think?"
"Not enough!" Jiang Yashuang narrowed her eyes, "Plus the specific whereabouts of Deng Yi's mother and son at this moment!"
"Can't add, I don't know." Kuang Qingwu snorted, "I just listened casually..." Before he finished speaking, Jiang Yashuang raised her hands and put them on his shoulders. In the blink of an eye, Kuang Qingwu Qingwu let out a miserable howl! With her arms hanging softly, Jiang Yashuang said indifferently, "Then you can leave after I finish avenging Princess Ning Yi... Ning Yi, you go inside and I will send you back after I finish taking care of him?"
Qiu Yilan ignored him, but asked Kuang Qingwu in a deep voice: "My uncle and aunt? Please tell me clearly!" She was not surprised that Deng Yi and her son were safe. After all, Mei Xue was in charge of "Tianya" before. , since she wanted to betray Qiu Jinglan and go to Queen Mother Gu, how could she attack Deng Yi and his son
But... How come from this person's words, Qiu Mengmin and his wife already know Qiu Jinglan's identity? !
Could it be that Qiunie had already announced the launch and notified all the relevant people? ! Thinking of this, Qiu Yilan couldn't help but break into a cold sweat!
"If Qiu Feng hadn't been investigating Ren Ziyong's death and discovered Qiu Nie's conspiracy by accident... Brother and I would have been miserable!"
Even now that Qiu Nie and the others have been dealt with, Empress Dowager Gu must have known it. He also knew it from Kuang Qingwu's tone, and Qiu Mengmin and his wife also knew it... Qiu Yilan suddenly felt dizzy: "Oops! Xue! Is this why the prime minister suddenly summoned my brother?"
