Old Zhu chuckled, then pulled out a stool and said to Zhong Lao:
"Come, come, sit."
"You really deserve to be a sword master... Although our grandson's talent is also very good, but I have to say that only a famous teacher can produce a good apprentice!"
"Seeing Xiongying make a move today, let's not mention how beautiful it is."
"It's all thanks to you!"
"Tell me, what reward do you want?"
Elder Zhong sat down and said with a smile:
"The old man doesn't want anything."
"No more rewards."
"but……"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him: "But what?"
"But when we came back, we seemed to be followed."
After Mr. Zhong said this, he looked at Zhu Xiongying.
Lao Zhu followed his gaze and said in surprise:
"Xiongying, did you notice it too?"
Zhu Xiongying nodded, took a sip of tea, and said calmly:
"It's just a small character, probably like that Wang Zongqi, he is Zhao Taichu's subordinate."
"It's just right to let him follow, and it will save us from going to Zhao Taichu."
Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang understand.
"So, you asked someone to bring the General Banner surnamed Wang here just to lure Zhao Taichu to the door?"
"Alright, save us another trip."
Zhu Xiongying blew away the tea leaves in the cup in his hand and said:
"This Zhao Taichu, who has done all kinds of evil... must never let him go."
"Only by uprooting these corrupt and evil officials can we leave Yangzhou with peace of mind."
Speaking of it.
Elder Zhong suddenly said:
"They're ready to enter the restaurant."
In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Xiongying also noticed it without Mr. Zhong's reminder.
From the window on the side of the street, there was a noisy sound of people and horses.
……
The gate of Sword Immortal Pavilion.
Numerous soldiers and horses, wearing armor and holding spears, surrounded the restaurant.
The passers-by who saw this scene were all shocked.
The hawkers who were supposed to set up stalls on the street saw that the situation was not good, so they hurriedly closed their stalls and fled, for fear of offending these military masters.
Zhao Taichu and Wang Laoqianhu walked towards the entrance of the restaurant with unfriendly expressions on their horses.
The shopkeeper of Jianxian Pavilion was dumbfounded when he saw this posture.
Quickly came out and clasped his fists and asked:
"I don't know why all the military masters are in such a battle, what are you doing in the shop?"
"The little one is doing business here, and has never done anything illegal..."
Zhao Taichu snorted coldly, and asked arrogantly:
"I am Zhao Taichu from Yangzhou Wei Qianhu. Someone saw today that a group of thieves hijacked the general banner under Ben Qianhu's command and sneaked into this restaurant. Do you know?"
The shopkeeper of the restaurant was astonished, and hurriedly said:
"No, all the people I live here are merchants, how can there be thieves?"
"It's even more impossible to dare to hold the general flag hostage."
"Master Qianhu, did you find the wrong place?"
At this time.
Xiaoqi, who had been following Zhu Xiongying and his group, stood up and walked in front of the shopkeeper.
Without further ado, he slapped the shopkeeper's face directly, making a "slap" sound!
"Troublemaker! How dare you speak hard!"
"Master, I saw with my own eyes, that group of people tied the general flag and entered the backyard of your restaurant!"
"Why, could it be that my young master wronged you?"
"Sensible, hurry up and hand over the person, otherwise... these two thousand households will lead someone to smash your dilapidated restaurant!"
These words scared the shopkeeper down on his knees with a "plop", and begged:
"Masters, I really don't know where the thief came from in the restaurant..."
"If you know, how dare you hide it?"
"This restaurant is a small one who sold off his family property and managed to save it. It really can't be smashed!"
The shopkeeper's tearful request did not impress Zhao Taichu at all.
He, who has destroyed countless families long ago, has become like a stone in his heart.
"Stop talking nonsense to this guy."
"Having a thief is a felony!"
"Go, smash this restaurant to Benqianhu. All the people in the restaurant, whether they are the shopkeepers or the merchants who live in the restaurant, are all arrested by me and taken back for interrogation slowly!"
"Yes!"
When all the officers and soldiers heard Zhao Qianhu's order, they all shouted and rushed towards the gate of the restaurant.
Now, the shopkeeper of the restaurant lost all hope.
Slumped on the ground.
What is unexpected is that...
The first batch of officers and soldiers who rushed into the restaurant were thrown out in unison before they started smashing them!
The officers and soldiers who followed saw that the team that had gone in before had all fallen to the ground, groaning in pain, so they didn't dare to rush in again.
Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Xiongying, and Mr. Zhong appeared at the door of the restaurant.
Meet these three people.
The shopkeeper hurriedly said:
"Thank you heroes for your help..."
"But these are military lords, let's not do anything. If I lose the lives of a few of you, I will never be able to live in peace for the rest of my life..."
Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't want to betray himself when he got to this position, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded appreciatively to him and said:
"good."
"It's not in vain that we personally inscribe on the plaque for you."
Done.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhao Taichu and Wang Laoqianhu again.
Just a cold smile, the two Qianhus on the horses shivered at the same time.
"That's right, that Zongqi Wang was tied up by us."
"In the fish and meat village, he bullied the common people of military households. We thought he was unhappy, so he was tied up."
"What can you do with us?"
Chapter 83 Tell them, what is your identity
Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial arrogance from the inside out made both Zhao Taichu and Wang Laoqianhu feel palpitations.
On weekdays, there is no psychological pressure for them to bully men and women.
But facing Zhu Yuanzhang today, he was a little timid.
Zhao Taichu was the first to come back to his senses, pointed at Zhu Yuanzhang with a horsewhip and cursed angrily:
"Bah! What are you, dare to tie the general flag of the barracks?"
"I think you are just impatient!"
"Ben Qianhu hereby gives an order that these three people will not be taken back for interrogation...they will all be executed on the spot and hacked to death!"
Just when the officers and soldiers were ready to move forward and take down Zhu Yuanzhang and others.
"I see who dares to move!"
A shout came from inside the restaurant.
Zhu Xiongying looked back.
I saw Hu Wei walking slowly out of the lobby step by step.
The gunshot wound on his body has not completely healed, so it is still a bit difficult to walk.
But his resolute eyes and cold murderous look are really daunting.
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him and said:
"Didn't I let you rest and recuperate?"
"Why did you get up by yourself again?"
Hu Wei walked up to Zhu Yuanzhang, cupped his hands and said:
"Master, I heard the movement downstairs. As a guard, I should naturally protect the safety of the master and the young master."
Done.
Then he stood in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Xiongying.
For Hu Wei's loyalty, Zhu Yuanzhang has nothing to blame him, he can only let him move forward.
See Hu Wei appear.
Immediately, Zhao Taichu and Wang Qianhu frowned, among them Zhao Taichu asked:
"who are you?"
"Do you know that Ben Qianhu is catching the thief?"
"Do you want to be executed summarily?"
The conversation between Hu Wei and Zhu Yuanzhang just now, due to the distance, Zhao Taichu didn't hear clearly.
He thought that this strong man who suddenly appeared was just a good friend with Zhu Yuanzhang and others.
and so.
I wanted to scare that person away with a yell.
Who knows.
Instead of retreating, Hu Wei raised his voice and said:
"Thief? Where did the thief come from?"
"Just based on your empty words, you want to convict people?"
"Zhao Qianhu, I don't remember the imperial court giving such power to Qianhu?"
