Chapter 141
The sudden meeting made Meng Xiuyuan and Yang Yunsu unprepared.

Meng Xiuyuan looked at this Miss Yang who hadn't seen him for ten years in surprise, and felt that she was averting her eyes, as if she was avoiding him for some reason.

But seeing this situation, Ji Fei was overjoyed and hurriedly said to Meng Xiuyuan:

"Meng Shaoxia, it's great that you actually have friendship with this... Lady Yang.

Let's resolve the misunderstanding in a friendly manner, which is better than using swords and guns. "

After saying that, Ji Fei graciously moved a stool from the side, motioning for Yang Yunsu to sit down and chat slowly.

But Miss Yang didn't give him a good face at all, she swayed her sleeves slightly, the strong wind hit, and immediately pushed Ji Fei back several steps, almost fell to the ground.

For Meng Xiuyuan's sake, Miss Yang didn't continue to attack, but just turned away with a cold snort, silent, as if she was thinking about something.

Seeing such a situation, Ji Fei didn't dare to speak again, swallowed in fear and retreated to Meng Xiuyuan's side.

For a moment, the room fell into silence, and the atmosphere in the air froze.

Meng Xiuyuan saw Miss Yang's strange behavior, but he didn't know if there was something hidden in it, or if her temperament had changed in the past ten years.

Therefore, in order to ease the atmosphere, Meng Xiuyuan had no choice but to ask Ji Fei first:

"Ji Fei, tell me the truth, what kind of outrageous things have you done?

Is it greedy for enjoyment, looting property, and harassing innocent people? "

Meng Xiuyuan thought to himself, Miss Yang is an upright person, if Ji Fei hadn't done something unforgivable, she probably wouldn't be so excited to kill someone with a sword.

Therefore, Meng Xiuyuan couldn't help but think of the banquet when he first met Ji Fei last night, thinking that perhaps it was because of his great success that he continued to oppress the people with power and seize property for his own enjoyment.

Hearing this, Ji Fei's big dark face looked very aggrieved, he hurriedly shook his head like a rattle, and explained to Meng Xiuyuan:
"Meng Shaoxia, where does such a thing happen, please don't wrong me.

After parting with you, I sacrificed my life on the battlefield, and finally managed to get to this point. I have the title of a general, and I am making the followers of the Ming Cult jealous.

Under such circumstances, how dare I commit such a big taboo and leave a mouthful for others.

I dare to swear that I have never disturbed ordinary people in these years, and I have some wealth in my hands, which was gradually accumulated by killing Tartar officials and those black-hearted rich people who worked for the Tartars..."

Speaking of this, Ji Fei thought about it, recalling how he was when he met Meng Xiuyuan last night, and understood why Meng Xiuyuan asked this question, so he hurriedly explained:
"Meng Shaoxia, I did have a bit of a wild life last night, but we just won a big battle, so I wanted to celebrate.

The dozen or so people you saw are all capable commanders under me. If you don't win them over and appease them, how can you lead your soldiers well.

I am not very capable, and I have come to where I am today only by being kind to the brothers around me and getting everyone's support.

You can go and inquire, who among the Ming Cult doesn’t know, as long as they are under my Ji Fei’s command, they are small soldiers, and they never go hungry or cold…”

This time Ji Fei was showing his true feelings, he was very excited when he spoke, and sprayed spittle straight at Meng Xiuyuan.Fortunately, Meng Xiuyuan was running "Xuanjia Gong" all the time, so he missed his trick.

"ok, ok, I got it."

While listening to Ji Fei's words, Meng Xiuyuan secretly observed Miss Yang's expression.Seeing that she didn't have any mood swings throughout the whole process, it was obvious that the crux of the matter was not here.

"But, what is that for..."

Meng Xiuyuan felt that he didn't know the truth, so he could not help but ponder, and looked at Ji Fei and Miss Yang.

Hearing this, Ji Fei hurriedly said to Meng Xiuyuan:
"Meng Shaoxia, didn't I tell you just now, there was a misunderstanding..."

Hearing what Ji Fei said, Miss Yang finally couldn't help herself, and said:

"There is no misunderstanding, you should pay for your life if you killed someone.

Even today... Even if Meng Shaoxia is here, you can never escape your guilt. "

Seeing this situation, Ji Fei became a little anxious, and couldn't help but argue with Miss Yang:

"It's not that I hurt her on purpose, but that woman has something wrong with herself..."

Before he could finish speaking, there was a "cang clang", and Miss Yang's sword had been unsheathed again.Ji Fei was so frightened that he couldn't speak anymore, and hurriedly hid behind Meng Xiuyuan.

Yang Yunsu's sword pointed at Ji Fei's throat, and moved accordingly.But when Ji Fei dodged like this, the long sword subconsciously pointed at Meng Xiuyuan.

Seeing this, Meng Xiuyuan didn't react much.On the contrary, it was Miss Yang who was taken aback, and hurriedly put her sword back into its sheath, unwilling to point the sword at this person who had read for many years.

The next moment, the expression on Miss Yang's face changed, until finally she frowned, and immediately turned around and walked out the door:

"With Meng Shaoxia here today, it's not easy for me to make a move.

But remember, I won't just let it go..."

Hearing the sound, Ji Fei felt relieved, thankful that he had passed today's test, and walked out carefully from behind Meng Xiuyuan, heaving a sigh of relief.

But what he didn't expect was that Meng Xiuyuan suddenly said at this time:

"Miss Yang, wait a minute."

In just five words, the hearts of both Yang Yunsu and Ji Fei jumped up.

"Meng Shaoxia, what's wrong..."

Miss Yang hesitated for a moment, then finally turned around and looked at Meng Xiuyuan with complicated eyes.

"I think you misunderstood, I didn't mean to protect Ji Fei.

I happened to be here last night too, thinking I would stop by to visit an old friend.

I didn't think there was any entanglement between you, I think it's better to make it clear. "

Meng Xiuyuan smiled at Yang Yunsu and said sincerely.

Seeing Meng Xiuyuan's smile, Miss Yang felt a little flustered, but after a while, she seemed to think of something, her expression suddenly turned ugly, she still frowned and said nothing.

On the contrary, Ji Fei was anxious when he heard Meng Xiuyuan's words, so he rushed out and explained to Meng Xiuyuan:
"Meng Shaoxia, don't get me wrong, I really didn't do anything outrageous.

It's just that I was unlucky and met a crazy woman..."

At this point, Ji Fei took another look at Miss Yang, and seeing that she had no intention of doing anything else, he went on to talk to Meng Xiuyuan:

"Actually, the matter is very simple, that is, a few months ago, I had a woman.

At that time, we were still active in northern Anhui. We had just won a big victory and rested in a village to celebrate.

It just so happened that I saw a girl from a family who was gentle and beautiful, and thought of myself being alone for so many years, so I wanted to find a partner.

You also know that those of us who fight on the battlefield all day long don’t have the time to do red tape, and we just ask the brothers to have a feast together and we’ve married her..."

When Ji Fei said this, Meng Xiuyuan suddenly realized that Ji Fei had made such a mistake between men and women, no wonder Miss Yang was so angry.

Meng Xiuyuan frowned and asked aloud:

"Are you robbing a civilian girl?!"

Ji Fei felt wronged when he heard the words, and was so anxious that he wanted to slap himself a few times, so he hurriedly refuted:
"Listen to me, no matter how stupid I am, I can't do that kind of thing.

It must have given enough dowry, her parents agreed.That is to say, time is tight, there are no matchmakers and witnesses, and there are no eight sedan chairs.

I heard from her parents that girls like flowers, and I asked my brothers to pick them all over the mountains and plains, and almost all of them were filled in the new house.

I have to say that I was wrong, that is, I was happy that day, drank too much, and was already dead drunk when I entered the bridal chamber.

I vaguely remember hugging the bride, what she said to me, as if she wanted my promise before she would get along with me.

I was in a hurry to have a bridal chamber, so I all nodded in agreement.

Who would have thought that when she got up the next morning, she emphasized to me that I had promised her last night that I would only be good to her in this life, and that I could no longer take concubines or touch other women.

I was startled when I heard her words, I was thinking of perfunctory her, but she was aggressive and insisted on me swearing by my parents and Mingzun.

I didn't allow her, so she started a big fight with me..."

At this point, Ji Fei only felt that he was unlucky, and his voice became louder and louder, gradually taking on a complaining tone.

Miss Yang was outraged when she heard this, her face turned cold, and she shouted at Ji Fei:

"That girl has already been forced to death by you, you actually said it so lightly?!"

Seeing this, Ji Fei felt courageous with Meng Xiuyuan standing beside him, and perhaps couldn't hold back his anger for a long time. Anyway, this time he didn't speak soft words, but shouted loudly:

"Where did I force her?!

I neither beat her nor scolded her. Instead, she made such a fuss that my brothers laughed at her.

Later, I felt that I really couldn't take her away, and knowing that I had ruined her body, I didn't want her to suffer, so I gave her parents a full 200 taels of silver as compensation, and asked her to remarry someone she liked.

Am I not doing this well enough?
I don't know why you, Miss Yang, insist on embarrassing me and meddling in my business? ! "

Yang Yunsu snorted coldly, and said loudly:

"That girl's family used to be prominent, but it fell into ruin after offending the Yuan court.

The elders in my family used to have some connections with her family, and they are said to be family friends.

I may not bother with ordinary things, but such a major matter of death, I naturally have to take care of it..."

At this point, Miss Yang seemed to be afraid that Meng Xiuyuan would be deceived by Ji Fei, so she added one more sentence:
"Let me ask you, before you married that girl, did her parents ask you to take good care of her after she got married, and not to go outside to make trouble?!

His parents hated the Tartars, seeing that you were an anti-Yuan rebel army, and that the military discipline was stricter than that of the common people, so they thought you were a reliable person and married the girl to you.

Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, you would force their girl to jump into the river and commit suicide! "

Ji Fei was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, as if he just remembered this matter, suddenly, but he still refused to admit his mistake:
"What's the matter, before which girl's parents marry their daughter, don't tell the uncle a few words like this.

Besides, I'm not saying I'm not good to her.

I was the first to marry her, even if she came from a humble background, I will definitely treat her as my regular wife in the future.

But her request was too much.

If a man stands between heaven and earth, if he achieves a great career, shouldn't he have three wives and four concubines?

Who knew that she was so unreasonable and had an extreme personality, she just didn't say a few words, turned around and jumped into the river secretly..."

"Shameless!"

When Miss Yang heard this, she couldn't help but let out a loud drink, and then she drew her sword and stabbed at Ji Fei.

I haven't seen her for ten years, but Miss Yang's kung fu has really improved significantly, and she has obviously practiced the "Nine Yin Manual" to an extremely deep level.When the strike was made, the sword light was like a dragon, and it disappeared in a flash, so fast that it was almost impossible to detect with the naked eye.

If it wasn't for Meng Xiuyuan who was standing next to Ji Fei at this time, another master like Yang Xiao and Xuanming might not be able to help him block this imposing sword.

Hearing the sound of "clang", Meng Xiuyuan's finger force from "Yiyang Finger" just hit Miss Yang's sword spine, knocking her a little bit away.

The next moment, I saw the sword passing by Ji Fei's cheek, even the beard and hair on his face were cut off quite a bit.

Although Ji Fei has worked hard to practice the "Liaoyuan Spear Technique" passed down by Meng Xiuyuan in recent years, he still has no room to react in front of a master of Jianghu at the level of Miss Yang.

Feeling the cold sword brushing past his cheek, he was so startled that his back was drenched in cold sweat for a moment, but he couldn't move at all.

On Miss Yang's side, feeling Meng Xiuyuan's restrained strike, she didn't make up the next sword, she just put the sword back into its sheath, her eyes were slightly heavy, her lips were slightly pursed, and she waited quietly for Meng Xiuyuan to speak.

"Miss Yang, I think this matter is still to be discussed, so don't rush to do it."

Meng Xiuyuan spoke only now.

"Meng Shaoxia, do you think that such a petty thief who caused people's death should not be punished with his life?"

Miss Yang looked at Meng Xiuyuan with a slightly sad face in anger, and subconsciously pronounced the words "unfortunate" very emphatically.

Meng Xiuyuan felt dizzy when he heard the sound, and didn't know how to deal with the situation in front of him.

He is familiar with Miss Yang's life experience, and knows that her mother's misfortune in her life is somewhat similar to this incident, so he understands her mood and feels that it is normal for her to be a little excited.

But on the other hand, looking at Ji Fei, Meng Xiuyuan also felt that although he was wrong, he was not guilty enough to die.

After all, don't say that in this era of war and chaos, even in later generations, actions like Ji Fei's would not be considered a crime with a high probability.

At most, it will be exposed on the Internet, cause heated discussions, and be slightly violent on the Internet.

Under such circumstances, Meng Xiuyuan couldn't help being a little embarrassed, not knowing how to reconcile the conflict between the two of them.

After such a long time, Miss Yang saw that Meng Xiuyuan had been silent and guessed his thoughts, her eyes darkened, and she said indifferently:

"Sure enough, you men all think so.

No wonder you're like that..."

After finishing speaking, Miss Yang seemed to have been drained of all her strength, she turned around slowly, and walked towards the door.

"Wait a minute, Ms. Yang, if you have anything to say, it's better to say it clearly."

Meng Xiuyuan has always felt that Miss Yang is not in the right state since just now.Now that I heard her say such a half-word again, I naturally wanted to ask clearly.

Hearing the sound, Yang Yunsu hesitated for a moment, and finally said softly:

"Actually, it has nothing to do with me at all...Meng Shaoxia, I wish you can enjoy the beauty of everyone and get along well with those two girls."

Meng Xiuyuan became more and more puzzled when he heard the sound:

"Miss Yang, I don't understand what you mean."

Yang Yunsu shook his head, sighed, and said slowly:
"Meng Shaoxia, why do you need to hide it from me.

When I left the customs, I heard the news that the six major factions were besieging Guangmingding, so I went to find you along the way.

That's when I saw you behaving... intimately with two beautiful girls.

With Meng Shaoxia's appearance and martial arts, it's normal for many girls to admire him.

It's just that it's hard for me to accept it, you just ignore me..."

Meng Xiuyuan was taken aback when he heard the words, pondered for a moment, then understood Miss Yang's meaning, and couldn't help smiling:
"It turns out that when I fell from the Bright Summit that day, you were the one in the woods, and I thought I was a spy from the Yuan army. No wonder Qinggong is so good...

Haha, those two little apprentices of mine are indeed messing around.But don't get me wrong, they just heard that I had just fought with the Yuan army, so they just checked to see if I was injured. "

Miss Yang was taken aback when she heard the words, and couldn't help asking:
"Those two girls are your apprentices?"

"You have seen one official apprentice, the daughter of the boatman we rescued. The other one was entrusted to me by her mother. I got the benefits of their mother and daughter and learned kung fu, so I agreed to take care of her. ..."

At this point, the puzzle was suddenly broken, and the atmosphere eased.

Meng Xiuyuan and Yang Yunsu naturally chatted about the daily life and the stories of the past years.

However, Ji Fei, who was originally at the center of the whirlpool of events, was left aside instead.

At this moment, although he was glad that he had escaped the catastrophe, looking at Miss Yang whose expression was gradually no longer cold, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable, as if he had been affected unintentionally.

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the house, and a group of big men in military uniforms walked in.

The leader of them entered the door and shouted at Ji Fei:
"Brother Ji, you have fought a good battle in the past few days. Let me come and see you, a great hero."

Meng Xiuyuan heard the familiar voice, followed the reputation, and recognized the identity of the person coming.

It was Zhu Yuanzhang whose appearance had not changed much, but whose temperament had been turned upside down.

 I updated 1w1 yesterday, and I feel my body has been drained, so it is very difficult to write today.

  Yitian Juan is really at the end, and the next few chapters will be written slowly.
