Chapter 545 Drawing the Bow at the Post Station [Thank You! Goodbye! I Owe You 40k for More]

Xingguofang,

The Duke's Mansion of Qi State,

The well-dressed concierge stood at the gate wearing ear protection and holding his hands. He looked up at the passers-by on the street in front of the door and yawned, then exhaled a stream of white air from his mouth.

When the boy took out his hand and wanted to stretch,

"Xu~"

A carriage stopped at the gate of Qi's house.

Seeing this, the boy hurriedly shouted to the house on the side door: "Manager, we have guests."

After saying that, he walked over and looked at Liang Han who lifted the curtain and stepped out of the carriage. The boy quickly raised his hands and said with a smile: "Hey! Mr. Liang Liu! What's wrong with you today?"

Before he finished speaking, Liang Han on the carriage waved his hand to interrupt and said, "Is the young master at home?"

"Go back to Sixth Young Master, he's here."

"Um!"

As he spoke, Liang Han stepped off the carriage and walked towards the main door of Qi's house.

When the Qi family boy came forward to speak, the steward had already walked out of the concierge.

Listening to the conversation outside the door, he waved to another boy and said: "Go, hurry up and say something to the second door."

After saying that, the concierge greeted Liang Han with a smile, cupped his hands and said, "I've met Liu Lang."

Liang Han nodded and walked quickly: "Do you have any plans for me today?"

The porter smiled and replied: "Back to Liulang, my young master was supposed to learn painting from Master Long Mian today, but Master Long Mian caught wind and cold yesterday and felt unwell this morning, so he did not come to the Duke's Mansion."

"Oh! In other words, the young master is fine today?"

"There are still some lessons in the book school."

"Um!"

Liang Han nodded and walked faster and faster.

Seeing Liang Han walking, the steward of the Qi family hurriedly accompanied him and said, "Liu Lang, what's the matter with you?"

"That's right. I'm mainly afraid that my young master will be late and miss a great show!"

"oh!"

The concierge nodded repeatedly: "I wonder what the excitement is about?"

"It's hard to say."

While talking with the boy, Liang Han quickly entered the second door and walked towards Qiheng Courtyard under the guidance of the trotting mother-in-law.

Qihengyuan'er,

In the study,

On the large nanmu table in front of the bookshelf, various objects related to paintings are placed in an orderly manner.

Qi Heng stood behind the table, holding a brush and tracing on the drawing paper with a smile on his face.

After a few strokes, Qi Heng stopped painting and took a deep breath, his eyes full of memories.

Recalling for a moment, the smile on Qi Heng's lips became more and more obvious, and he continued to move the brush in his hand, his eyes full of love as he watched the characters gradually become more detailed.

From Qi Heng's perspective, it can be seen that the painting is a desk with an inkstone and pen holder on it. Behind the desk is a girl lying down. Behind the girl are the pillars, rolled up curtains and wooden partitions.

Although Qi Heng is not very old, looking at this painting, it is obvious that he has some painting skills.

Looking at his work, Qi Heng nodded with satisfaction, wrote a few more words on it, and then pursed his lips and smiled.

But looking at the words on the drawing paper, the handwriting was completely different from Qi Heng's.

suddenly,

"Little father-in-law!"

Liang Han's shout came from outside.

Qi Heng's face instantly became a little panicked. After looking left and right, he hurriedly reached out and pinched two pieces of drawing paper, trying to cover his work.

However, the painting had just been completed and the ink on the painting had not yet dried. Covering it with paper would definitely damage the painting, which made Qi Heng hesitate.

"Little father-in-law!"

When the sound sounded again,

Qi Heng frowned and covered his painting with the drawing paper in his hand, then opened the drawing paper and smeared over the words he had just written with the brush in a panic.

Just covered it,

Buwei's voice came: "I've seen Liulang! The young master is in the study! Please come over here!"

"good."

While talking, Liang Han and Buwei had already opened the door and walked in.

Qi Heng was already smiling and asked in confusion: "Liu Lang, what's going on?"

"Young Master, I just heard something big on the road."

Liang Han said half of his words,

Qi Heng walked out from behind the table with excitement on his face and said, "No, hurry up and let Li Chong prepare the carriage and horses!"

"Young Master, how about you take my seat?"

"Yes, yes! Let's go!"

With that said, Qi Heng took the cloak from Buwei and walked outside while putting it on.

When Pan Louzhong Xu Zaijing beat up General Bai Gao, Qi Heng was in the mansion at the time and did not see the scene.

Liang Han only watched the follow-up outside Pan Building afterwards. He didn't see how Xu Zaijing beat people.

Later, when Xu Zaijing beat up Prince Yan and the children of the Bao family of Ruyang Hou and the Huyan family of Jinghai Marquis, they were still not present. Zheng Xiao or Gu Tingye could only be heard talking to Yourong Yan several times with their chests raised.

Liang Han didn't know anything about the affairs of King Yan's domain, but Qi Heng was Chai Zhengzheng's cousin, so he knew something about it.

Further back,

As the sons of a prince, the two of them knew Xu Zaijing's achievements in Baigao very well!

This made these two young men very yearning and curious, and they wanted to see how Xu Zaijing would act in reality.

The voice of Qi Heng and Liang Han gradually faded away, but the paper covering the paintings on the table became slightly infected.

Qi’s backyard,

Princess Pingning's office,

In the hall, Princess Pingning, who was arranging today's matters for the mother in charge of the Qi family, raised her head and said:

"Go out? It's such a cold weather, why is Heng'er going out?"

"Return to the Empress"

He bowed and said a few words.

"Brother Jing is a stubborn thief and a villain?"

Princess Pingning frowned and looked at Wuweidao.

"Yes, my dear, that's what the sixth young master of the Liang family said."

Princess Pingning thought for a while and said: "Go ahead. When you go out with your young master, you must bring four young men from the mansion who are good at fisting and kicking."

"Yes, concubine."

When Qi Heng and Liang Han came to the gate of Qi's house, Buwei and four young men who were leading horses like him trotted after them.

At the door, Liang Han looked at his carriage and then at the Qi family's horses. He turned his eyes and whispered a few words to Qi Heng.

On the way to Beiliao Posthouse

The number of people of all kinds following Xu Zaijing and Qingyun increased and decreased from time to time. After all, many people had their own livelihoods and could not follow them all the time.

But overall there are more and more people watching.

Xu Zaijing's horse riding and walking speed was not very fast. From time to time, idle men would trot past Xu Zaijing and go to the street in front to shout, attracting people to see the rare bustle in Bianjing in winter.

Of course, among the people who were called out to watch closely, there were ordinary residents and members of wealthy households; there were also well-informed thieves and bandits who knew that Xu Kagoro was carrying a reward.

If Xu Zaijing is in the Hou Mansion, apart from other things, it will be very difficult for this group of stubborn thieves and desperadoes to get close to Xu Zaijing.

But at this time, Xu Zaijing was riding a horse and walking down the street leading the way. It is not an exaggeration to say that it was a God-given opportunity!

Therefore, when Xu Zaijing was walking on East Street, there were several suspicious people looking around.

The people who were watching from time to time were also frightened by the dead or injured people dragged by Qingyun's horse, and did not dare to get too close.

And whenever someone wanted to get close, Qingyun behind Xu Zaijing would shout a few times to tell the onlookers to stay away.

When Xu Zaijing turned to Chongmingmen Inner Street, he placed the long bow behind him, and the one he held in his hand had been replaced by a strong bow.

On the road, you can also see many people on horseback and cars who come to join in the fun and look around.

Among them were well-dressed noble young men, and also muscular men with unclear expressions.

When they were still a street away from Beiliao Post House, Qi Heng and Liang Han, who were riding horses, finally caught up.

The young men from the Qi and Liang families dismounted their horses in the alley, walked quickly to the entrance of the alley, turned around and led Qi Heng and Liang Han's horses forward for two steps.

As they got closer, Zhu Ma looked at the injured or dead thieves behind Qingyun, who were bleeding and injured. Qi Heng said with some discomfort on his face:

"Mukuro, we are sick. Do you want to continue watching?"

Liang Han swallowed, looked away from the twisted legs of ‘Sehu’, and frowned:

"Young Master, I think it's better to forget it. Go ahead and say hello to Brother Jing. Let's wait at Beiliao Post House."

Qi Heng nodded and said, "Let's go."

If you don’t want to join the fishing cart, you have to lead your horse and retreat away from the crowd.

suddenly!

"Pa"

There was a crisp sound of wood colliding.

"ah!?"

This book was recently updated in ##六x-on:x-on:九x-on:x-on:书x-on:x-on:!! Updated!

Then there was an exclamation from the front. Liang Han, who was riding a horse, looked sideways and saw that Xu Zaijing had three feather arrows in his hand and was drawing his bow sideways.

Before Liang Han could figure out what happened,

"collapse."

The bowstring vibrated, and the arrow shot away with lightning, and went straight into the street-facing window of a two-story wooden building on the left side of the road.

Xu Zaijing, who shot an arrow, ignored the wooden building and turned around. At the same time, he quickly drew his bow again. Without aiming, he just relied on his feeling. The arrow hit a roof behind him on his right.

"What's wrong?"

Qi Heng, who had already turned his horse's head, looked in the direction of Xu Zaijing doubtfully.

As soon as Qi Heng finished speaking,

"Crack."

"Ta-ta-ta~"

After something fell from the roof to the right of the two men, the sound of sliding downward on the tiles was heard.

At this time, the passers-by who were watching realized what was going on. They turned to look at the roof in confusion, wanting to know what was going on.

After a few 'tap-tat' sounds,

A crudely made crossbow and crossbow arrows slid down from the roof one after another, almost hitting the people watching below, causing a burst of exclamations.

"There's someone on the roof!"

Among the people watching from the surrounding wooden buildings, some pointed at the roof on one side of Liang Han and shouted.

After hearing this, Qi Heng and Liang Han quickly raised their heads and looked at the room on one side.

Later, Liang Han excitedly held up his purse and shouted: "How to get to this roof? Tell me, you will be rewarded!"

Seeing this, some people ran over and shouted: "Yameni, go this way!"

On the street, the government officials who were following behind looked at Qingyun who was turning back in front, and quickly separated four people, two of them went to the second floor, and the other two tried to find a way to get to the roof.

As soon as they were busy, a strong man with an arrow in his neck was dragged out from the second floor of the wooden house by two government servants with blood on his body.

One of the two government officials also held a strong bow and a feather arrow in his hand.

Ignoring the strong man's bleeding neck, the two officials tied him behind Qingyun's horse.

During this period, there were bold passers-by who picked up the sneak attack arrows that Xu Zaijing had just knocked down with his bow arm and handed them to the Kaifeng government officials.

The other thief on the roof didn't waste much effort. After being kicked a few times by Liang Han who had climbed onto the roof, someone pushed him off the roof.

"Bang!"

The body hit the ground heavily.

At this time, the onlookers saw that the thief had an arrow in his eye, and half of the long arrow emerged from the back of his head.

After the officer tied the thief on the roof to a rope, he continued to walk forward.

After getting off the roof, Liang Han walked to Qi Heng. It was okay at first. When Liang Han wanted to step on the stirrup and mount the horse,

"Ugh~"

Liang Han held on to the saddle and retched.

Qi Heng's expression on the side was also a little distorted. Listening to Liang Han's movements, he endured it for a while before bending down and retching several times.

"Mukuro, let's cough, do you still want to follow?"

Qi Heng took the handkerchief from Buwei, wiped his mouth and said.

"Follow! Look, there might be something going on later. If you don't follow us, this suffering will not be in vain."

"Too!"

After speaking, Liang Han spat on the ground.

Xu Zaijing's two arrows just now were extremely powerful.

From the time he shot the arrow to the time he arrived near the Beiliao Post House, no one dared to attack him again, although he could feel a few malicious glances along the way.

The door of Beiliao Posthouse is closed.

In front of the gate, many people from Bianjing who knew Xu Zaijing's destination had gathered around.

Looking at the dead or injured thieves dragged by Qingyun's horse, everyone pointed and pointed.

door,

An official from the Ministry of Rites of the Great Zhou Dynasty who saw Xu Zaijing walked over quickly, cupped his hands towards Xu Zaijing and said: "Wu Lang, this is the Beiliao Posthouse. It is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries. Don't act recklessly!"

Xu Zaijing was riding on the horse, looking at the flag flying high above the Beiliao Post House, and said: "I can't act recklessly, then they can issue a reward for me?"

The official of the Ministry of Rites was stunned and said: "Wu Lang, what's the reward?"

Xu Zaijing waved back, and without saying anything, Qingyun on horseback pulled out his sword and swung it downwards.

"bass"

Yan Shun looked at the hemp rope in front of him that was cut off by Qingyun's knife, then looked at Xu Zaijing and the officials from the Ministry of Rites in front of him, and hurriedly walked over.

"Crack."

Yan Shun knelt on his knees and said, "Yamen, please tell me!"

Turning to look at the officials from the Ministry of Rites, Yan Shun said:

"Sir, in the past two days, news has spread among Wuyou Cave in Bianjing and the Green Gangsters. It is said that anyone who can kill or injure Xu Jiawulang will be rewarded with a heavy reward. The place to receive the reward is Beiliao Station. Pavilion!”

The official of the Ministry of Rites cupped his hands and said: "Wu Lang, it is difficult to tell the truth from the nonsense of these thieves, so you must not believe it casually!"

Yan Shun, who was kneeling aside, cupped his hands and said, "Yamen, I swear on my own life that everything I say is true, and the few people behind who are still alive can also testify!"

Xu Zaijing smiled at the official of the Ministry of Rites and said, "Sir, please."

After going to the back and asking some questions, the official of the Ministry of Rites walked up to Xu Zaijing's horse with an ugly look on his face and said, "This is what the thieves and gangsters said, Wu Lang!"

Xu Zaijing shook his head and said: "I don't care about this. Beiliao Post House must give me an answer today!"

Seeing Xu Zaijing's appearance, the official of the Ministry of Rites turned around helplessly and walked towards the Beiliao Posthouse. After speaking, the door of the Beiliao Posthouse opened a crack, and an envoy from the Beiliao came out.

Looking at Xu Zaijing who was stationed in front of the horse, the Bei Liao envoy raised his hands and said: "This yamen, what you just said are all nonsense. Our Bei Liao Post House will never do such a thing!"

Xu Zaijing nodded with a sneer and said, "Then the reward was not issued by Beiliao Post House?"

"Absolutely not! What's the purpose of offering a reward and then signing up for one's own number?"

The envoy from Bei Liao asked.

Xu Zaijing pulled out a sharp shovel arrow from the quiver in front of the saddle, pointed his bow and arrow at the flag in the Beiliao Post House, and said: "What are you trying to do? You're just trying to disgust me. I don't think I can do anything to you!"

Saying,

Xu Zaijing let go of the feather arrow in his hand.

"Doh."

The flag flying high in Beiliao Post Hall was cut off by an arrow and fell upside down into Beiliao Post Hall.
