Jiaohua

A deafening bell rang from the top floor of the Wenhe Building of Lianfeng Academy, swaying to the entire Hengxiang, awakening the dawn of the day.

Shen Shuangcheng had the habit of getting up early. After punching two sets of punches in the backyard of the inn, he was sweating.

Yu Guang saw three of his subordinates coming back from outside, Shen Shuangcheng stopped and waited for them to speak.

After greeting his subordinates, he said, "Zhiyu Shuixie sent a large number of people to Qingyue Pavilion, Ning'an Building and other places yesterday, saying that it was a late-night snack, and it was the ten spice ribs in Kyoto."

"When I stayed near the Zhiyu Waterside Pavilion last night, I found that there were soldiers and horses patrolling there, Naiyan Army."

"Some say that the eldest young master is in the Yamen, some say that he is in the Qu residence, and some say that he is in the Ning'an Building."

"However, we managed to contact the dark guard Zou Zhan next to the eldest young master. He has not been taken away and will come over at noon."

"According to the investigation, the master of the eldest young master, Qingzhou Sheng Lao has disappeared."

"It's not easy to manage the yamen side. We dare not move the Xia family army. The original yamen guards and small officials don't want to cause trouble, and they can't push it no matter how much money they have."

……

Shen Shuangcheng listened quietly, threw the towel back on the tray, and walked into the house: "Then wait for Zou Zhan to come over."

They are now in the inn, which is the shortest center point among the three distances of Zhiyu Water Pavilion, Qingyue Pavilion, and Yamen.

Because the Zhiyu Water Pavilion and the Wenhe Building of the Lianfeng Academy are across the water, outside the window sash of the side hall where Shen Shuangcheng had breakfast, he could see the vigorous vitality of the Wenhe Building in front of him.

On the big stone bridge along the lake, groups of students and literati are strolling, neatly dressed, and enjoying the breeze with the morning breeze.

More people gathered by the lake, playing the qin and playing chess, or reciting poems and praises, and there was laughter from time to time.

Suddenly, a series of high-pitched shouts sounded from the southwest, because it was too noisy below, I couldn't hear it clearly, but the tone was extremely rough.

"Master, I'll go take a look." One of the men said, walking towards the window.

Shen Shuangcheng frowned and also got up and walked over.

The literati below also turned their heads to look over there.

Two men with long swords came running from the southwest, followed by more than 20 tall and burly soldiers.

The two men were covered in blood and bruises, and the soldiers who were chasing behind shouted at the crowd in front: "Get out of the way! Don't block them, the injured are at their own risk!!"

The literati near the long street over there immediately ran away.

The two men wielded their long swords and went wherever there were many people. In the chaos, several people were still injured.

"Bring your sword!" Shen Shuangcheng shouted immediately.

The entourage at the table immediately offered his sword.

Shen Shuangcheng turned out the window sill, and with the help of the building, he landed agilely, and immediately rushed towards the two men.

All the attention of the two men was behind them. The man who suddenly killed them in front of them startled them, hurriedly parried, and secretly said that it was not good, because the sword move was too fast and the sword was too fierce. There is only one thought left: certain death.

But they didn't want to, but the sword move that swiftly reached their face was suddenly stopped by the other party. The next moment, the other party's sharp blade slammed into their long sword, as if they were blocking him.

The two men didn't know why, but before they could think about it, the opponent's long sword attacked again, and they had to raise their hands to block.

Shen Shuangcheng's men ran out from the back door of the inn and surrounded them in a big circle.

The soldiers chased after them, and Shen Shuangcheng shouted, "Hold me a moment!"

Soldiers, you look at me, I look at you, and they didn't come forward because they thought it was impossible for them to escape.

Shen Shuangcheng really ended quickly, and the battle ended with him picking off the long swords in the hands of the two men.

The two men were powerless throughout the whole process. After the long sword was picked, they raised their heads and glared at Shen Shuangcheng with their bloody palms in their hands. This man was just teasing them!

The soldiers rushed forward, restrained them, and tied them with thick ropes.

"Your surname is Fang?" Shen Shuangcheng looked at them and asked.

The two men did not speak, glaring at him.

"Oh? How did this knight know their surname Fang?" a soldier stepped forward and said.

After speaking for a while, I was too confused just now, I couldn't see his specific face clearly, I just felt handsome, and now I look at him, he is more than handsome, he is a beautiful man that is rare to see, and his facial features and eyebrows are quite familiar.

"My surname is Fang," Shen Shuangcheng said, "Fang Xiyu and Fang Ziqian, are these two still alive?"

The two men were startled and looked at him.

The soldiers looked at Shen Shuangcheng with serious eyes. If they were in the same party, no matter how good he was, they would fight to win.

"Who are you!" a man asked.

"Your enemies," Shen Shuangcheng said, "are they alive? If they are alive, are they still in Hengxiang?"

"Since you are an enemy, why are you asking so much! You all die!" another man cried.

"Damn you!" A subordinate of Shen Shuangcheng stepped forward and angrily scolded.

The soldier who spoke just now raised his hand to Shen Shuangcheng: "Dare to ask the chivalrous surname?"

Shen Shuangcheng frowned slightly, paused, and said truthfully, "Shen."

The soldier didn't think much about it: "Shen Daxia, it seems that you have some past with them, so come with us to the yamen."

"What if I don't go?" Shen Shuangcheng asked.

The soldier looked solemn: "Maybe, it's up to you."

"How dare you arrest people in broad daylight?" Shen Shuangcheng's men stepped forward.

"We didn't capture innocent civilians, you are a suspected comrade!"

Shen Shuangcheng raised his hand lightly to stop his subordinates. He looked at the soldier with cold black eyes: "My Shen is from Yunliang Shen's family."

The soldier was stunned for a moment, then finally reacted, his eyes widened.

The rest of the soldiers were also shocked, and their eyes were all fixed on Shen Shuangcheng's face.

No wonder it looks familiar!
But judging by his age, he is at least 40 years old, but this face only looks like he is in his early thirties, far younger than his peers, and even more annoying, he is more handsome and handsome than people who are ten years younger than him.

The soldier who spoke just now showed a guilty look and cupped his hands: "It turns out that it is General Shen's biological father! He is a villain with clumsy eyes, so disrespectful!"

"I'm sorry!" the rest of the soldiers said in unison.

"Are you Xia Jiajun?" Shen Shuangcheng said.

"Yes," said the soldier who spoke just now, "We Xia's army and Yan's army are friends with each other. The villain offended me just now, please forgive me, Daxia Shen!"

Shen Shuangcheng raised his hand and said solemnly: "Ding Guo is heroic, and Xia's army is heroic. Since you have the prisoner on your side, you should go back first."

"Well, I'll wait to say goodbye first!"

The soldiers left with two Fang family swordsmen, and the weapons on the ground were also picked up.

The men came: "Master."

Shen Shuangcheng put his hands behind his back and looked at the two Fang family swordsmen who left.

"Send someone out to find out," Shen Shuangcheng said. "Looking at their posture, it is definitely not only these two people who have been arrested."

"Yes!"

Shen Shuangcheng paused, then looked at the injured literati on the side of the road, and said, "Even the sun."

Shen Shuangcheng's entourage came: "Master."

"Bring a few people to take the injured to the hospital. In addition to the medical expenses, give them some silver taels to buy supplements."

"Yes!"
