344 Patience and domineering
"I'm really sorry, Ah Lang said, no, Childe, please go back."
The next day, when Zheng Peng brought the name card and gift list to Cui's mansion again, there was no accident and he was closed again.
Zheng Peng was not angry, and his face was calm after being rejected, he took out a simple horse and a small table from the horse, and played the leaf card in public on the road opposite Cui's mansion.
risked his life to go to the Western Regions and made a series of contributions, Zheng Peng used these credits to change his future, and also in exchange for Li Longji's support in disguise, although he refused to give marriage directly, he could send the Hebei Provincial Overseer without a specific task or time limit, mainly to facilitate Zheng Peng's actions.
Don't worry, anyway, I have time, so I will slowly consume it with the surname Cui.
"Look, butler, they're playing on the other side." A subordinate pointed to the opposite side and said to Cui Fu, who had heard the news.
Cui Fu saw that Zheng Peng put the small table on the road, got a big umbrella above his head, and put some fruits, snacks and the like next to him, playing cards leisurely, as if he regarded the road as his home.
If it was in other places, it would be okay, but what would it be like to do it in front of the Cui Mansion?
Cui Fu's brows furrowed, and he said with a displeased expression: "Didn't you say that people should not do business with them?" What's the deal with those fruit treats? Who sold it to them? ”
Speaking of the back, Cui Fu's face became gloomy.
Could it be that his own Ah Lang's words don't work? If you find out which one dares to disobey the yang, make sure he regrets it.
"The big butler, this matter has been investigated, after Ah Lang spoke, no one dared to disobey, the little one saw that he was carrying it with him, he should have brought it himself, or bought it from a far away place."
That's right, Zheng Peng has a horse, and people can buy it if they run far, even Cui Mansion, and it is impossible for everyone not to do Zheng Peng's business, right?
At this time, many passers-by pointed at Zheng Peng, to know that the Boling Cui family is a famous family, deep-rooted, no matter which passes here, most of them are with admiration, but Zheng Peng is a few, shouting and playing cards in front of the house, and the style of painting is a little peculiar.
It also damaged the reputation of the Bolingcui clan.
Cui Fu thought for a while and said, "Zenglu and Tianshou, the two of you go, let them play cards and play elsewhere, don't make trouble in front of Cui Fu." “
When Zenglu and Tianshou heard this, they hurriedly responded and began to drive away.
This kind of thing is not good for Cui Fu to come forward in person and let his subordinates go.
From the corner tower, it can be seen that Zenglu and Tian Shou walked up, and walked back in disgrace after just saying a few words.
"How's it going?" Cui Fu hurriedly asked.
The heads of the two were lower, and Zenglu said with some caution: "He said that the road is not the Cui family's land, so he can't take care of it, don't be nosy." ”
Cui Fu was so angry that he slapped him on the head and scolded loudly: "You can't even drive someone away, it's really a waste, you won't think about it with your brain, won't it be over if you let Chen Hui go?" ”
Zheng Peng said that it was not easy for the people in Cui Mansion to go out, so as not to spread it badly, Cui Fu rolled his eyes, and soon had an idea.
Chen Hui is the head catcher here, responsible for the security of this area, what Zheng Peng means is that the Cui Mansion can't control it, and there is no law enforcement power, so Cui Fu will prescribe the right medicine and let the people of the Yamen drive them away.
Tian Shou answered, and immediately ran to leave.
On the one-third of an acre of land in Boling, what Cui Fu said is more effective than that of the county uncle.
Not long after, Chen Hui, the head catcher, appeared at the door of Cui's Mansion with eight catchers.
When the people from the Yamen arrived, Zheng Peng and his entourage still didn't care about playing cards, and Chen Hui was unhappy on the spot with that kind of expression if there were no others.
With a "snap", Chen Hui threw his saber on the table at once, which scared Zheng Peng as well.
It was Zheng Peng, Huang San, Liu Huo and Ji Cheng who were playing cards, and a knife was suddenly thrown on the table, and Huang San was startled, because he almost hit his hand.
Huang San turned his head to see Chen Hui and his party, and said a little strangely, "Whose knife?" How to litter? ”
Chen Hui sneered and said: "You are so bold, you actually play cards in public, do you know the crime? ”
Zheng Peng's dress is extraordinary, and he has a few guards on his body, he is not an ordinary person at first glance, but Chen Hui is not afraid, he is doing things for Cui Mansion, and Cui Mansion is his own backer, what are you afraid of?
"Sin? What sin? Zheng Peng said with some doubts: "I don't know which one we violated Tang Law?" ”
Chen Hui was speechless, and couldn't find Zheng Peng for a while, but he quickly said: "The road belongs to the government, and the people and things in the jurisdiction have the power to control the head of the catcher, you have hindered the normal walking of others, quickly take it away, walk slowly for half a step, and blame the head catcher for arresting you all in prison." “
Huang San didn't know what to say, he wanted to stand up, but when he thought that it would not be his turn to come out here, he didn't speak, and Zheng Peng was more like he had nothing to do with himself, leisurely tasting snacks.
Liu Huo and Ji Cheng glanced at each other, then smiled at Chen Hui and said, "It turned out to be Chen Zhutou, it's really disrespectful, and I asked Chen Zhutou to move a few steps, I want to talk to Chen Zhutou about something." ”
Ready to speak softly or bribe?
Chen Hui had the intention to show his face in front of Cui's mansion, and when he heard the words, he approached and said: "This head arrester has always enforced the law impartially, don't think about any crooked ways, what do you want to say?" ”
The subordinates of the Cui Mansion looked at it, no matter what good words they said, no matter how much money they sent, Chen Hui made up his mind to ignore it, and now he is cooperating with the people of the Cui Mansion to see how he can handle this matter properly.
Seeing Chen Hui getting closer and closer, Liu Huo's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, and the corners of his mouth also showed a sneer, seeing that Ah Hui was about to walk in front of him, he saw that his hand was as fast as lightning, and with a "snap", he slapped Chen Hui in the face.
This slap was fast and ruthless, Chen Hui didn't expect the other party to do it when they met, and he was beaten before he could put down the cruel words.
"You, you actually slapped me?" Chen Hui came back to his senses, and his face became hideous.
Liu Huo didn't say a word, turned his hand and gave him a loud slap.
After being slapped, Chen Hui became wary, but he was surprised to find that he saw the other party's move, and subconsciously blocked, but the other party's hand was as fast as lightning and hit the other side of his face, and he was beaten a little blindly.
Liu Huo didn't care about 3721, he didn't enjoy it after hitting two times in a row, he pulled Chen Hui's clothes with one hand, pulled hard, and his right foot slammed his knee into Chen Hui's lower abdomen, put Chen Hui to the ground on the spot, and scolded while kicking: "What is a slap, Lao Tzu still beats you and kicks you." ”
Last night was targeted, to go to the dilapidated Guandi Temple for the night, early in the morning and took the initiative to ride a horse to a far away place to shop, Liu Huo was already unhappy, he didn't dare to complain about Zheng Peng, and there was no way to take Cui Yuan, now he ran out of a small head catcher in the strong head, just to take him out.
By the way, show it in front of Zheng Peng.
Zuo Xiaowei is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and he is a character who walks sideways in Chang'an, so he doesn't shout if he can do it, how can he put a small catcher like Chen Hui in his eyes.
Seeing that the head catcher was beaten, a few people who followed the catcher quickly drew out their sabers and scolded loudly:
"How daring, you dare to make trouble in Boling."
"Assaulting court officials, you want to rebel?"
"Headcatcher, are you alright?"
"Brothers, get them all back."
A few catchers were about to rush forward, but Ji Cheng on the side stretched out the token in his hand and said with a sneer: "Zuo Xiaowei is doing things, and those who dare to resist will be killed." ”
What, Zuo Xiaowei?
Seeing the token presented by Ji Cheng, several catchers were in a dilemma.
No one has seen Zuo Xiaowei's token, and they don't know if this token is real or fake, but no one dares to bet that this token is fake.
Feeling that the lesson was almost the same, Zheng Peng opened his mouth and said: "A misunderstanding, Liu corrects, please stop first." ”
"Yes, General Zheng" Hearing Zheng Peng's voice, Liu Huo immediately stopped.
At Zheng Peng's suggestion, Huang San picked up Chen Hui, who was beaten to a clear nose and swollen face: "Chen Zhutou, this road belongs to the government, yes, it is the government's and His Majesty's, this is Zheng Peng, the general of Dingyuan, who was ordered to supervise the army in Hebei Province, what's the matter, General Zheng can't take a rest on this road?" ”
Checkmate? On official duty?
Chen Hui was startled when he heard this, and immediately threw away the idea of finding someone to teach Zheng Peng Yiheng, and he didn't care about the pain on his body, so he suddenly knelt down and said with a sad face: "The general spares his life, I don't know it's the general, otherwise no matter how small ten dares are, I won't sweep the general's Yaxing." ”
This meal was beaten in vain, leaving aside Zheng Peng's identity, just those two Zuo Xiaowei are not something he can deal with.
Although he didn't see Zuo Xiaowei's token, his intuition told Chen Hui that these were all true.
Although Cui Fu is not a common man here, he is also a person who stomps on his feet and shocks three times in Boling, so many caretakers, he doesn't do it himself, but looks for himself to come forward, and he can see that this group of people is not simple. 、
By the way, I heard that Cui Fu said that people should not do business with five strangers, is this it... Five?
Looking back, Chen Hui couldn't wait to slap his second mouth: Impulsive, he wanted to pat Cuifu's fart, but he slapped it on Qincha's horse's hooves.
"Yes, yes, General Zheng, it's a small one with eyes and no beads, please punish General Zheng." Chen Hui took care of the pain on his body, and hurriedly ran to the ground to beg for mercy.
When the few catchers saw it, they knelt down one by one and begged for mercy.
Zheng Peng waved his hand and said, "Since it was a misunderstanding, forget it like this, let's disperse." ”
A few small characters are on their own, just give them a dismount, there is no need to get along with them, this is Lushu's hometown, and it's not good to stink your reputation.
A look was thrown over, and Huang San grabbed Chen Hui, who was about to leave: "Chen Zhutou, wait a minute." ”
As he spoke, he stuffed a piece of broken gold into Chen Hui's hand: "The people here are a little unkind, targeting us everywhere, Zuo Xiaowei's Liu Jiaozheng is not happy, he is heavy, take this money to see Langzhong, if there are so many brothers, you should invite so many brothers to drink a bowl of tea, by the way, this is your saber." ”
"This, this...."Holding the broken gold rewarded by Lord Qincha in both hands, Chen Hui suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Take it, so be it." Huang San said a little domineeringly.
Ignoring Chen Hui's reaction, Zheng Peng and his party played cards again.
This piece of broken gold is about three taels, worth more than 30 yuan, Chen Hui suffered all skin injuries, go to the hospital to bandage it and give it a ten-wen meaning, and after being beaten for a while, he will earn dozens of yuan, which is too cost-effective.
If possible, Chen Hui would like to suffer a few more times.
After thanking him repeatedly, Chen Hui left with his subordinates, and when he left, he looked at the gate of Cui's mansion and had a trace of unhappiness in his eyes.
was pitted, the people of Cui Mansion must know whether the other party is a general or a Qin Cha, so they still call themselves out, don't they put themselves on the fire, fortunately, that General Zheng is easy to talk to, and that Zuo Xiaowei is so angry, which is also caused by the domineering of Cui Mansion.
"General Zheng, these little characters, what are you polite to them, it's good not to let him honor us, why give him money, it's too cheap for him." Ji Cheng asked while playing cards.
Zuo Xiaowei fought, when did he lose money?
Liu Huo echoed: "Yes, just leave these things to our brother, let the general be frightened because we didn't do it well, and then let the general break the bank, isn't this a slap in the face of our brother?" ”
Zheng Peng didn't speak, Huang San said with a smile: "This trip to Boling, but you are here to propose, you cherish money, and my young master also cherishes his reputation, can't he stink his reputation before he meets him?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes, that's it, the little one almost forgot." Liu Huo hurriedly responded.
Zheng Peng knocked on the table and said, "Concentrate when playing cards, and play cards quickly." ”
.......
Cui Yuan spoke, and Zheng Peng and his party were clear of the cliffs, but it was not difficult for Zheng Peng at all: If you want to eat, send someone farther away or buy it in a remote place, as for accommodation, you can lie down by laying a straw mat in a temple, cave or directly on the road, and no one dares to care about it anyway.
As soon as Zheng Peng stabilized his position, it began to be Cui Fu's turn to be helpless and uncomfortable.
Although the Boling Cui clan is very famous, no matter how famous it is, it can't be bold enough to attack a general or a general with the emperor's order, Zheng Peng and his party only stopped on the road opposite Cui's mansion, and they didn't make trouble or bully people, and they didn't want to find a reason to drive him.
I thought that Zheng Peng would leave in two days, but I didn't expect Zheng Peng to be very patient, sending famous posts and gift lists every day, and after being rejected, he was not angry, noisy or noisy, and looked for a show opposite the gate of Cui's Mansion to spend time: playing leaf cards today, getting a bunch of delicacies tomorrow, eating and drinking while singing, and the day after tomorrow I don't know where to invite a storyteller to tell them stories, and from time to time they still practice martial arts and cut martial arts with each other on the road, and they don't repeat it every day.
The solemn and extraordinary Cui Mansion suddenly had such a group of people in front of the door, and this group of people was the person Cui Yuan was talking to, and it soon spread in Boling, and many people watched it like a play every day, and the first two days were still watching from afar, slowly gathering more and more, getting closer and closer, watching Zheng Peng and his party play cards, make food, and sometimes watch martial arts competitions, rub a book or something, making the entrance of Cui Mansion like a market.
Cui Fu drove the onlookers away a few times, but the adults were afraid, the children were not afraid, and there were a lot of them every day, and some of them shouted loudly to see the practice of boxing and martial arts, and there were many children, so some parents used the excuse of looking for children to go back and forth, once Zheng Peng was late because of buying things, and some children asked why they didn't come earlier......
Finally, when Zheng Peng came to Boling on the tenth day and the tenth time to send the name sticker and gift list, the chief housekeeper Cui Fu said expressionlessly: "My family Ah Lang is invited, General Zheng, please." ”
