The Red Chamber: The Rise of the Shuzi

Chapter 282
Yanping Mansion.

Wang Ziteng looked at the request letter in his hand, his face full of confusion.

Turning to look at Xue Zixing, "General Xue, the Marquis of Jingbei Yuan Wenchu ​​sent a letter to Ji'an Mansion to suppress the rebellion. He wants to use the cunning fox to break through the city wall of Ji'an Mansion City. Look at this?"

"Are you going to use the cunning fox to open up the situation and break through the city of Ji'an?"

Xue Zixing couldn't help raising his brows, "The general hired me at the beginning, but he paid a high price. During the siege battle two days ago, there was even more expense. Could it be that the Marquis of Jingbei also planned the same?"

Xue Zixing's meaning is very clear.

If you want to hire us, you will have to pay a high price. Unless the Marquis of Jingbei also pays corresponding treasures, it is better not to talk about it!

Wang Ziteng's face was a little embarrassed.

Afterwards, he carefully discussed with Xue Zixing: "In Yuan Wenchu's letter, he only said that it was a temporary loan. How about if it doesn't count as my employment this time? You know, he is your old boss. If you get stuck, Your Marquis looks ugly too!"

The words are Chen Ken, with an appearance that is completely for Jia Jing's sake.

However, Xue Zixing didn't accept Wang Ziteng's rhetoric at all.

Playing the emotional card is completely useless!
Therefore, after learning that Yuan Wenchu ​​had no intention of hiring his own family, the enthusiasm on Xue Zixing's face dropped, and he said, "The general doesn't need to put a big hat on me, Lord Hou will have his own say when he goes back next time.

As for the moment, since he, Yuan Wenchu, has no intention of hiring him, then forget it! "

After finishing speaking, Xue Zixing cupped his fists at Wang Ziteng, then turned and left.

Wang Ziteng opened his mouth behind him, and finally just sighed helplessly.

But soon, Wang Ziteng reacted.

"Why am I sighing? What does this matter have to do with me? I just need to tell him the ins and outs of the matter and tell him that Yuan Wenchu ​​is the one. The specific employment or not is up to him.

I paid a lot of money to hire them. Could it be that he, Yuan Wenchu, still wanted a white wolf? "

After thinking clearly about the context of the matter.

Wang Ziteng did not hesitate, quickly wrote a letter, and recruited someone to send it to Yuan Wenchu.

………………

Shenjing, Zhaowuhou Mansion.

On this day, Tan Shiyong just came out of the martial arts arena, with a smile on his face that couldn't be concealed.

Amidst the crisp sound of iron armor rubbing against each other, Tan Shiyong grabbed Laifu who was about to find Jia Jing.

Showing off: "Brother Laifu, if you look at my iron armor, you may see how it is different from ordinary iron armor?"

Seeing Tan Shiyong showing off his armor proudly.

Laifu just glanced at his mouth, and then counted them one by one: "The difference between your iron armor and ordinary iron armor is that the material is much stronger, making its defense nearly [-]% higher than ordinary iron armor. .

Then there is the weight, it is two points lighter than the same iron armor..."

Lai Fu asked with a smile: "How is it, am I right?"

"That's right, but..." Tan Shiyong asked subconsciously: "But brother Laifu, how do you know?"

As soon as the words came out, Tan Shiyong reacted, "Brother Laifu also has such an iron armor?"

"What do you say?"

Lai Fu asked back with a smile.

Hearing this, Tan Shiyong scratched his head in embarrassment, and said angrily, "Hey, why is it so difficult to find someone to show off?"

Laifu didn't respond.

later.

Wait until Tan Shiyong's excitement subsides a little.

Laifu just exited and stopped him.

"Brother Tan, I don't need to say more about how precious your armor is.

Lord Hou is completely optimistic about your future and loyalty, so he gave you the iron armor just now, and hopes that you will continue to work hard in the future, so that you will not disappoint Lord Hou's expectations! "

Tan Shiyong said seriously: "Brother Laifu, don't worry, I know it well!"

"It's good to have a few!"

Laifu nodded in satisfaction, and then went to the martial arts arena.

……

In the martial arts arena.

Jia Jing was slowly waving the horse-killing sword in his hand.

Seeing Lai Fu coming in, he immediately asked: "I asked you to investigate, but did you get any news?"

"This is the news from the informant at Luchuan, please read it, Lord Hou."

As Laifu said, he handed over a small note.

Seeing this, Jia Jing put down the saber in her hand, then took the wet kerchief handed over by Amber next to her, casually wiped off the sweat that didn't exist on her face, and then opened the note in her hand.

After a while, Jia Jing's surprised voice was heard.

"I really didn't expect that Si Kefa could bear it like this!"

Jia Jing was rather disappointed that there was no movement from Luchuan.

But soon, Jia Jing adjusted her mood, commanded Lai Fu with a serious face, and said: "This Sikefa can be so forbearing, you must be more careful about this person in the future!"

After a pause, Jia Jing said again: "Send a few more people to keep an eye on Si Kefa's every move!"

"Yes!"

Laifu bowed to accept the order and left.

…………

Lin Daiyu's yard is full of excitement today.

When Jia Jing came to the main hall, she saw Aunt Xue sitting there, talking to Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai with a smile on her face.

Sitting next to him was Xue Pan who was also smiling.

Seeing this, Jia Jing couldn't help laughing and said, "What are you talking about? It's so lively!"

Wait for everyone to meet each other.

Lin Daiyu said with a smile at this time: "Yesterday, I found out that Xiangling is happy, and my aunt came here to tell Baochai the good news. Also, Brother Xue Pan was very excited, so he planned to have another banquet in two days. Everyone once..."

"Brother Xue Pan has a successor, so it's time to celebrate!"

Jia Jing smiled when he heard the words, and then Xue Pan asked: "But the date and venue have already been set?"

Xue Pan laughed "hehe" and said, "It's better to hold a banquet at our home, Brother Jing must appreciate it!"

Jia Jing nodded, "Since it's a wedding, of course we're going!"

Then, he greeted again: "Aunt Xue, sit down first, I just came back from the martial arts training ground, covered in dust, I'm really rude, wait for me to wash up first, and then talk to Auntie!"

Xue Pan waved his hands loudly, "Brother Jing is here to go, we are not outsiders, why bother to be polite to us?"

……

When Jia Jing, dressed in casual clothes, returned to Lin Daiyu's courtyard again, half an hour had passed.

Jia Jing came to the hall and sat down, then stretched out her hand and made a move.

Everyone saw that Amber was carrying a small lacquered wooden tray, on top of which was a fist-sized porcelain bottle with a narrow neck and a big belly.

Signal Amber to hand over the porcelain bottle to Xue Pan.

Jia Jing explained: "This is a medicine prepared in the palace, and it is specially used for the concubines in the palace to replenish vitality and prevent pregnancy."

Xue Pan's eyes lit up, "This is a good thing, it's suitable for Xiangling, so I won't be polite!"

Jia Jing smiled and said: "It was for you, why are you being polite to me?"

"Brother Jing is righteous!"
