The Red Chamber: Hang Qin Keqing at the start

Chapter 19 [019] Nurhachi's men?

Jia Qiang clasped her fists with a halberd and said:
"This spear and halberd are the weapons I will use in the future. Sorry, I forgot to remind you that this spear is a bit heavy. Didn't it hurt you?"

Liu Xianglian was dumbfounded, her mouth was tongue-tied, and her heart was full of turmoil:
kinda?

It's a bit heavy?
It's heavy, right?
It was ridiculously heavy!
Now, it is not Jia Qiang who is embarrassed, but Liu Xianglian.

Jia Qiang held the gun with one hand, so relaxed and comfortable, just like holding a light firewood stick.

And he carried the gun with both hands, and almost fell to the ground under the weight of the gun.

This gap in strength is really obvious and shocking!
Liu Xianglian blushed and said with a sneer:
"Brother Qiang is serious. It's because of his low martial arts skills. He almost missed your long spear. I'm laughing at you!"

Jia Qiang smiled and said:

"Brother Liu Shi is too modest. I heard that you are good at wielding a pair of mandarin duck swords. It is probably because you are used to using light weapons, so you are not used to heavy weapons such as long spears."

Liu Xianglian's expression softened slightly, she nodded repeatedly and said:
"What Brother Qiang said is true, I think your spear and halberd are not ordinary, but do you know if these two weapons have names?"

Jia Qiang said with a smile: "Yes, the spear is called the 'Breaking Array Overlord Spear', and the halberd is called the 'Tianlong Breaking City Halberd'."

Liu Xianglian's complexion changed, and she said in surprise:
"The names of these two weapons are actually the same as the names of Chu Overlord Xiang Yu's weapons?"

Jia Qiang nodded slightly and said, "Not only the name is the same, but the weight is also exactly the same."

Liu Xianglian took a breath, sighed and said with emotion:
"I heard that the Heavenly Dragon Breaking Halberd of the Overlord of Chu weighs 120 and nine catties. Brother Qiang is really a god! He actually has a divine power comparable to that of the Overlord of Chu!"

Jia Qiang smiled lightly and said, "Brother Liu Shi is overrated."

Under the shocked eyes of the owner of the blacksmith shop and the craftsmen, Jia Qiang and Liu Xianglian left the blacksmith shop together and rode towards Qiangwei Escort.

There are many pedestrians on the road, and the roadside is full of small merchants and hawkers who set up stalls.

There were many people and the road was narrow, so Jia Qiang and Liu Xianglian could only walk slowly with their bridles on, and could not ride their horses wildly, so as not to hurt pedestrians.

After walking dozens of steps along the bustling street, there were bursts of fierce quarrels from the front right, surrounded by a group of onlookers.

Riding on a tall horse, Jia Qiang looked over the heads of the crowd to where the quarrel came from.

But I saw a beautiful woman covered in silk, wearing gold and silver, with delicate eyebrows and eyes, confronting a rough man who was setting up a stall on the opposite side.

The rough man had a horse face, a long nose bridge, small eyes with a narrow distance between them, and several deep forehead lines on his forehead.

He was wearing a navy blue mandarin jacket with a round collar and a gray wolf fur jacket over it.

Judging by his appearance and attire, he does not seem to be Han Chinese.

When she got closer, Jia Qiang heard that the rough guy was threatening the pretty woman opposite in his not-so-fluent and standard Chinese:
"If you touch my ginseng, you must buy it, otherwise, don't even think about leaving!"

Before Qiao Jiaren could answer, a slender girl next to her, wearing a dark red round neck satin vest, said eloquently:

"You are so rude! How can there be any reason to buy and sell by force? The price you offered is too high, so we naturally don't want to buy it. Get out of the way quickly and don't get in the way!"

The rough man opened his arms, stopped Qiao Jiaren and the girl, and said with a sneer:
"You knocked off the stalks of my ginseng, so you must buy my ginseng!"

The girl replied angrily:

"You nonsense! We have never touched your ginseng at all, you don't want to blackmail with red lips and white teeth!"

The rough man took out a ginseng whisker from his pocket, grinned grinningly and said:

"This is the ginseng you knocked off. So many people have seen it, and you still want to deny it?"

Qiaojia angrily reprimanded: "This is your forged evidence, we didn't destroy it, you are trying to frame it!"

The rough man raised his chin, snorted arrogantly and said:

"I advise you to pay honestly, otherwise, you will definitely regret it!"

At this time, Jia Qiang had already rode to the front, and when she saw the faces of the pretty lady and the girl, her eyes lit up.

These two people turned out to be Ping'er and Xiaohong, Wang Xifeng's servant girls.

If you can help them settle this matter, you can sell Wang Xifeng a favor, which will help you develop and strengthen your own power with the help of the power and connections of the Wang family.

Moreover, Ping'er is a very good person, kind-hearted, smart and capable, and the maid next to her, Xiaohong, is articulate, daring, and repays her kindness.

Both of these two have good personalities, and it is worth helping them out.

Thinking of this, Jia Qiang poked the halberd on the ground casually, and half of the halberd tip plunged into the bluestone floor tiles in an instant, then turned over and got off the horse, and tied the horse to the upright halberd pole.

The sharp sound of the halberd hitting the ground attracted passers-by to look at it.

Jia Qiang ignored everyone's surprised gazes, stepped forward to push aside the crowd watching the quarrel, and walked quickly to the side of Qiao Jiaren and the girl.

"Miss Ping, Xiaohong, don't worry, I'll take care of this matter." Jia Qiang said straight to the point.

Ping'er's beautiful eyes lit up, and she smiled and said, "Second Master Qiang, I didn't expect to meet you here."

After all, her eyes dimmed a bit,

Because in her past impressions, Jia Qiang was a playboy who only knew how to fight cocks and lackeys, and ask flowers to find willows.

Moreover, although Jia Qiang is nominally the decent great-great-grandson of Ningguo Mansion, his parents died early, and he actually has no real power in Ningguo Mansion.

Can such a helpless son, brother, solve the troubles in front of him?

"Xiaohong met Second Master Qiang." Xiaohong just greeted Jia Qiang lightly, and she didn't quite believe that Jia Qiang was capable of settling this matter.

"En!" Jia Qiang responded casually, but kept her eyes fixed on the rough man in front of her, and asked sharply:
"Who are you? How dare you blackmail in broad daylight?"

As she spoke, Jia Qiang released a little bit of her restrained domineering aura.

The temperament of the whole person changed suddenly.

It's like a fierce tiger ready to violently hurt people at any time.

The rough man's pupils trembled, and his heart felt timid, but he still stiffened his neck, and said sharply:

"It's okay to tell you! I am the subordinate of Dragon and Tiger General Nurhachi."

Jia Qiang's eyes flickered, and a cold murderous look flashed in her eyes.

In history, Nurhachi was the later Qing Taizu.

43 years later, it was his son Dorgon who led the Eight Banners into the customs, burned, killed, looted, and slaughtered the people all the way, completely peaking the Ming Dynasty.

It can be said that if there is no Nurhachi, there is a high probability that there will be no later Qing Dynasty.

It is now the 29th year of Wanli, and Nurhachi has not rebelled against the Ming Dynasty.

Although he has already annexed most of the Jurchen tribes outside the customs, he is still the General Dragon and Tiger conferred by the Ming Dynasty in name, and the official position is the second rank.

Feeling the murderous look in Jia Qiang's eyes, the rough man shrank his neck in fright, but still insisted:

"Why don't you talk? You know you're afraid? Don't hurry up and pay!"

Jia Qiang said coldly:
"So you are a Jurchen. I wonder if all of you Jurchens are as unreasonable as you?"

The rough guy sneered and said:

"What's wrong with the Jurchens? Our Jurchens have the noble blood of a phoenix, and you Han people can only be regarded as lowly pheasants! In our Jurchens tribe, big fists make sense!"

As he said that, the rough man suddenly stretched out his right hand and pushed Jia Qiang's chest.

However, Jia Qiang remained unmoved.

The rough man widened his eyes in astonishment, and took a breath. Although he was not the top warrior of the Jurchen tribe, he was still very strong.

However, when he pushed Jia Qiang just now, it felt as if he was pushing on a mountain, and he couldn't shake Jia Qiang at all!
Jia Qiang completely ignored the rough man's shocked gaze, and looked up at a sycamore tree next to her.

The rough man felt a little uneasy, and asked tremblingly, "What are you looking at?"
