On Houhu Lake to the north of Yingtian City, many villas have been built along the lakeshore, most of which are properties of prominent local families.
This beautiful place is far away from the hustle and bustle and is a good place to stay when entertaining guests and friends.
However, early in the morning, the tranquility here was broken. More than 500 sergeants appeared here and spread out outside a courtyard to guard.
The villa is called Feiyunzhai, which is the villa of the Liu family, a prominent local family. It is also the venue for He Jiayan's so-called banquet.
The five hundred soldiers who arrived in advance were affiliated with the Qianhu Station of Yingtian Guards, and they were only the first batch of people to arrive.
After them, another two hundred soldiers from the Beijing camp came, scattered in the area close to the courtyard, patrolling and guarding.
Feiyunzhai covers an area of only two acres. Now it is guarded by so many soldiers. It is not an exaggeration to say that it has an iron wall.
"Sir, with so many people guarding him, the assassin will have to shake his head when he comes, and then go back and forth."
"I don't know what the higher-ups are thinking, so many people are still keeping him." We are sent here, so we don’t even have to investigate the case."
Listening to the complaints from his men, Chen Yuntai took the last bite of the steamed buns, and then scolded, "Shut up, everyone, since we were sent here, if If something happens to this man, he will lose his head."
This is called taking care of things as they come. Since you can't change the situation, try your best to make the situation better, or at least not make it worse. .
At this time, someone whispered, "Sir, Lu Qianhu and Zhang Baihu are here."
Chen Yuntai and his party were wearing plain clothes. A team of ten people like them were in Feiyun. There are four groups around the Zhai, monitoring "suspicious characters" in different directions.
As the Hundred Household Office directly under the Jinling Thousand Household Office of Jinyiwei, Chen Yuntai and his team are definitely elites, and they are all good at spying on intelligence and investigating cases.
After the two inspection supervisors left, the lieutenants returned to normal, and someone among them said, "Sir, look at the three floors outside and the three floors here. There is not even a ghost in the circle. Let's not go there." It's a waste of energy."
The man who spoke was named Zhang. He was already a Buddhist among the captains, and was the most troublesome to Chen Yuntai among his subordinates.
There is no way. Jinyiwei has status and high benefits. He can still live a good life without seeking advancement. If he gets older and cannot be promoted, he will naturally become a Buddhist.
Chen Yuntai looked serious and reminded everyone, "Some actors and prostitutes have been invited to the garden. There is no guarantee that these people are not coming from the right way, so we should keep an eye on them."
"What happened today is extraordinary." Normally, if the case cannot be investigated, we will just get scolded. If something happens to the Thirteenth Master, we will be stabbed."
"It is about the livelihood of the whole family, so it is better for you to be careful."
After this episode After the second emphasis, all the captains were awe-inspiring and became more serious about their work.
The actors and singers who arrived in advance were carefully inspected and questioned, and even the "young talents" who came to the banquet were not exempted.
If you encounter someone who doesn't listen to you, as long as you show your Jinyiwei sign, even the descendants of officials will choose to settle the matter.
TimeSlowly passed, all the talented people attending the banquet arrived, and it became quiet again outside the courtyard, except for the sound of horse hooves intermittently.
After a lot of busy work, there was really nothing to do at the moment, so Chen Yuntai ordered his men to rest first.
"It's time for the nobles to come," a captain yawned.
Nearly two hours have passed since the army cleared the area, and the sun has risen to noon.
The next moment, a school captain shouted, "Coming, coming, look over there."
Following the direction of the man's finger, he saw a soldier standing at the corner of the road. They appear one after another. Judging from their attire, they should be from the Beijing camp.
There were more and more soldiers in the Beijing camp, and then a sedan appeared, with more soldiers behind the sedan.
In the sedan, Zhu Jinghong wore a dark blue round-neck robe with dark patterns of auspicious clouds, a leather belt around his waist, soap boots on his feet, a net scarf on his head and a hairpin fixed in a bun.
Lifting up the curtain, Zhu Jinghong looked at the situation outside, and then said to Hou Jing who was accompanying him, "I didn't tell you to keep a low profile. You see, there are three floors here and three floors outside. It's too much to make a fuss out of a molehill."
"Thirteenth Master, the ceremony has been reduced according to your instructions. Otherwise, there would still be the guard of honor of the flag bearer, as well as the accompanying musicians and"
"If I say one sentence, you have to return two sentences." Right?"
"How can I do that? I can't explain it to you clearly."
"How far is it?"
"It's just ahead"
After Hou Jing answered, he heard Zhang Lin say, "Thirteenth Master, this place is really nice, with beautiful mountains and clear waters. It is a good place to retire."
Zhu Jinghong put down the curtain and said slowly, "That's right. You have to live to be old."
Soon, Zhu Jinghong's sedan stopped outside the courtyard, and all the "talents" inside came out to welcome him.
The sedan was pushed down, and the eunuch opened the curtain, revealing Zhu Jinghong's true appearance.
"Welcome to the Thirteenth Master"
Under the leadership of He Jiayan, all the young people bowed down, clearly showing their status differences.
Lifting up his robe, Zhu Jinghong stepped out and bowed his head wherever he looked.
"Today I was invited by a friend to come here for a banquet and listen to music."
Hearing that Zhu Jinghong called him a friend, He Jiayan smiled even more. Young Master He is even more respectable.
"So today there is only Zhu Jinghong, there is no Thirteenth Master, please get up"
"Thank you, Thirteenth Master"
All the young people got up, no one People really dare to ignore their status, especially these officials' sons and daughters, who know how to measure their differences.
"Thirteenth Master, everything is ready inside, but we are just waiting for you."
He Jiayan quickly approached, showing that Zhu Jinghong was getting closer to him.
"Lead the way"
"Thirteenth Master please"
Looking up at the "Feiyunzhai" plaque, Zhu Jinghong walked in with his hands behind his back, He Jiayan The others followed immediately.
In Feiyunzhai, there are also a large number of guards on duty, but they are not wearing armor, and they are chilling.The spirit is much less.
On the way into the other courtyard, He Jiayan kept talking and introduced today's arrangements to Zhu Jinghong.
First they listened to music, drank and chatted, then watched a movie and ate, and then went on a boat trip to watch dancing
The content was very rich, just what Zhu Jinghong wanted.
After entering the second gate of the courtyard, there is a spacious courtyard.
There is a stage on the south side of the courtyard. There are more than a dozen tables in the open space to the north of the stage, with snacks and tea on the tables.
On the north side of the courtyard, there is an observation platform, and Zhu Jinghong is walking up the steps at this moment.
"Thirteenth Master, please sit down."
He Jiayan moved quickly and pulled up the chair before Lu Yuxin, and Zhu Jinghong sat on it swaggeringly.
Seeing that everyone was still standing, Zhu Jinghong smiled and said, "Today is just a gathering of friends. You don't have to be restrained, just sit down."
"Thank you, Thirteenth Master"
p>Everyone sat down one after another, and the scene was still very quiet. These usually elegant and elegant young men did not seem to be free and easy at this moment.
Zhu Jinghong picked up the tea cup, looked at He Jiayan aside and said, "Don't you want to listen to music? Let's start now."
"Well, okay"
I just saw He Jiayan clapped his hands, and someone immediately understood and went to the back to make arrangements.
After a while, two girls with beautiful faces walked onto the stage holding Qin in their arms.
After the two of them sat down, the musicians on the left and right sides of the stage began to play, and then the two girls also began to sing.
The music is very soft, and the live performance has a great atmosphere. Zhu Jinghong, who was not paying much attention to it, became fascinated by it for a while.
In fact, if you can be selected to sing at this time, your singing skills must be the best in Jinling, otherwise it will be a loss of face for Young Master He.
"Thirteenth Master, have you heard about the recent rumors?"
Throwing a small snack into his mouth, Zhu Jinghong was already looking at the stage below and asked casually Please remember to bookmark "What's the rumor"? The latest and fastest website without anti-theft and free to find and add books can be added to the qq group 952868558
