Chapter 3 The second round of Jusha

Mao Shiba asked with a smile: "Great Xia Gan, please let me know a little bit more, and give me more advice!"Who is the evil star?When is the gathering date? Gan Fengchi laughed and said, "How can you vent more since it's a secret!"For the sake of Wei Xiaobao's reputation, and your eyes are still bright, and your back is still hard, Mr. Wang, on the opening day of Lichun Courtyard, since Gan Fengchi accepts the invitation, he will definitely be there to take care of as much as you can!I don't like gold powder from the Southern Dynasties, rouge from the North, or even the unique Western-flavored Luo Song beauties in Xinlichun Garden.You prepare a few jars of fine wine for me!

After finishing speaking, Fengxiang Tianchi's signature movement technique was used again, and it really flew out of the tall wall of Lichun Garden like a big bird! Mao Shiba was dumbfounded, stupid in his eyes, and stupid in his heart! The eyes are silly, because I met an expert tonight, Gan Fengchi is well-deserved of his reputation, not only Fengxiang Tianchi's body skills, but also beautiful and light like a phoenix flying in the sky, his internal strength is also amazing!The slap on the shoulder just now was obviously merciful, he didn't use ten percent of his inner strength, but it almost shattered his own skeleton, he couldn't bear it!

If you are stupid in your heart, there are too many problems, and things are extremely complicated! Gan Fengchi will never catch wind and shadow, aim at nothing, how could he worry about the four spirits restraining each other?Who are the tortoise, phoenix, lin, and dragon four spirits he mentioned?Will they all come to Lichun Court together? I, alias Wang Ba, can barely be considered a turtle. In Gan Fengchi's name, there is a phoenix word, and he is proficient in Fengxiang Tianchi body skills, so is he Feng?But according to the literal meaning, Feng is a woman. Among the women I know, the one who is most suitable for the identity of Feng character seems to be one of Wei Xiaobao's seven wives, Princess Jianning, the imperial sister of Emperor Kangxi. Could the statue of Chunfang be sent by Princess Jianning from Yunnan?This princess who was quite naughty since she was a child, actually married a chicken and followed the chicken, she was infected with Wei Xiaobao's unreserved and meticulous character, she had no scruples, and she did not hesitate to condescend, did she ever enter this Yangzhou brothel in Xinlichunyuan?

What kind of person is Lin?Is it someone with the word Lin in their name?Or is it intended to be majestic, Feng Xianglin, alluding to a rising star with beautiful roots, strong skills, and a new rise in the world? The word "dragon" is the most difficult to guess. Ganfengchi once said that the dragon is too powerful. Obviously, this dragon who is the head of the four spirits must be the main evil star of Xinlichunyuan! But the turtle can swear at will, the phoenix can praise women, Lin can praise the rookie, only the dragon, you can't call it indiscriminately, and insult it recklessly. Tied to the Caishikou execution ground in Beijing, and the executioner in red cut off his head with a big knife!

There are many kinds of dragons. The divine dragon in the sky cannot go to the kiln, and the dragon in the water cannot go to Yangzhou to join in the excitement of the opening of Xinlichun Courtyard. Besides these dragons, there are also dragons among humans, but the dragon among humans is the emperor, and the emperor is the king. Kangxi, Kangxi is getting old, and I heard that he is often in poor health recently. Will he go to the south of the Yangtze River and come to Yangzhou whoring house? Huh?possible Mao Shiba suddenly remembered that Wei Xiaobao's pseudonym Xiao Zhuzi followed Eunuch Hai in the Qing Palace, and had a close relationship with Emperor Kangxi Xuanye, who was nicknamed Xiaoxuanzi, and the relationship was too strong. , actually went to the south of the Yangtze River, and wanted to visit Yangzhou, where Wei Xiaobao's hot mother always talked every day!

Kangxi knew Wei Xiaobao too well, of course he knew the relationship between him and the Lichun Courtyard, if the royal driver came to Yangzhou, he might just walk around in casual clothes and visit the Xinlichun Courtyard The obedient Mao Shiba has lived in Yangzhou for a long time. Apart from thinking about his mother who is spicy in Yangzhou spoken language, he is sweating all over his body, his brows are frowned, and he mutters incessantly. up How can he not sweat?If the emperor came to the grand opening banquet of Xinlichun Courtyard, how could he serve him at that scene?Especially, when I was in Beijing, I scolded the Emperor of Manchuria in the street and was sentenced to beheaded by the emperor. Although Wei Xiaobao saved his life by using that unlucky fellow loyal Bo Feng Xifan and Li Daitao stiff, in fact, the extremely shrewd Emperor Kangxi did not open his eyes. Close one eye, close one eye, and think about the friendship between Xiao Xuanzi and Xiao Zhuzi, so that if the truth is revealed, Wei Xiaobao cannot be defended and it is difficult to deal with it!

Now, if we meet again in Yangzhou, there must be many masters around Kangxi, and there must be many high-minded people. If someone sees the flaw and overturns the old case, let alone Wei Xiaobao's protection, it is impossible for him to be sent back to Beijing. Was it the first time to make a sensation in Ninetowns and attract thousands of people to kill Caishikou? obedient obedient obedient obedient winter Hot Nugget Mom Hot Nugget Mom Hot Nugget Mom Doesn't Bloom what to do?What to do, if one can't do it well, it won't be a success, and everything will be finished in a mess!

These obedient winter spicy mothers are not blooming, Hengbulang is going to die, etc. When Mao Shiba's heart fluctuates and his mouth is grunting, what is the situation of Ganfengchi? Gan Fengchi may not be very happy either! Gan Fengchi floated out of Lichun Garden, walked slowly and calmly, just after turning around the street, he heard a cold word in a low voice! This sarcasm refers to Fengxiang Tianchi's movement skills, so it's nothing more than that!The voice is very cold, and the words are very light, but it can be heard that this person's courage is really not small!

Because since he recognized Fengxiang Tianchi's movement technique, of course he knew that the person who performed this kind of movement technique must be Gan Fengchi among the Eight Heroes of Jiangnan. Looking around the rivers and lakes, there is that martial arts figure who dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head and speaks contemptuously of Gan Fengchi? Gan Fengchi should be a little angry, but with his rich experience in the arena and calm cultivation base, he suppressed the anger and did not get angry. It's not that dragons don't cross the river, it's not that tigers don't get laid off, it's not that heroes don't worship mountains!In the three mountains and five mountains, in the wilderness and the four seas, there are too many capable people and eccentrics who are not known to the world!Gan Fengchi then suppressed the anger in his heart, he had to see clearly the role of the person who was mocking him with cold words, who seemed to be deliberately provoking, and then decided how to deal with it.

Following the voice and glancing at him, Gan Fengchi couldn't help crying secretly! The speaker did not hide, he was standing by the side of the road, so tall and straight, so handsome, with a jade face and vermilion lips, a bee waist and ape arms, Yue Zhiyuan was prudent, and his spirit was steady.In terms of eyes and demeanor, it is obvious that he is not vulgar, but he is only around 20 years old, he is a child! Although Gan Fengchi understands that ambition does not depend on young age, and that a hundred-year-old is useless without talent, he does not despise young people in his heart, but as one of the Eight Great Heroes of the South of the Yangtze River, he is the first-rate among the best in contemporary martial arts, even though the opponent is not a child , is just a young man, if he cares about it, is it not that he is invincible in victory, and it is a laughing stock?

That boy's eyes are so beautiful!Bright enough!Shrewd enough!Unexpectedly, he could see the change in Gan Fengchi's expression, guessed what he was thinking, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he snorted and said: Humph, relying on the old to sell the old, old-fashioned, don't you know that there are more powerful players in the strong, and behind the capable there are capable people?Don't look down on young people, Fengxiang Tianchi's agility is not necessarily enough to see, you can teach me a few moves to suppress the dragon and tiger flying clouds and flying phoenix hands at the bottom of the box! Obediently, obediently Long Winter! Are you talking too aggressively?That expression can really make people mad and choke to death! If it was Mao Shiba, it must be that the spicy mother and the hot mother would yell non-stop, and even really showed some kind of dragon and tiger flying phoenix hand, and slashed at him with one palm! But Gan Fengchi is Gan Fengchi after all, some heroes cultivated, still not angry, but laughed uncontrollably, looked at the opponent's eyes carefully, nodded and said: "It's really aggressive, it's really brutal!"For those who are young and promising, how dare I rely on the old to sell the old?But Gan Fengchi is not an unknown person, and he does not fight an unknown general. If you want me to take action, you should sign up first! The young man said proudly: "My father said that as long as you are worthy of your conscience, you can provoke even big people, and even big disasters can be caused!"But my mother said one more thing is worse than one less thing, and she only talks about three points when she meets people, so she can't give her all her heart The more Gan Fengchi listened, the more he felt that this young man was very cute, and he couldn't help laughing: "Then you listen to your mother?"Or listen to dad? The young man didn't even think about it, so he replied: I listen to my mother for small things, and my father for big things, so I don't want to say my name right away, so just call me Xixi Qinfengshou for now! Gan Fengchi laughed and said, "Why is it so surprising to capture a phoenix?"Capturing the dragon is amazing!Since you obey your father's advice and dare to cause any catastrophe, go to Xinlichun Courtyard and join in the fun!On the opening day, there will be gambling and prostitution, a gathering of talents, you can see all kinds of unique skills, and all kinds of Chinese and Western beauties will also be present to accompany you. You won't torture me anymore, you have to learn how dragons and tigers turn clouds and fly phoenix hands! After finishing speaking, he flipped his right hand, and a red light shot out towards the handsome young man who claimed to be the Phoenix Capturer from the Southwest! The young man stretched out his hand to receive it, although he realized that the red light was just a lacquered red invitation card, but the card contained extremely strong inner strength, which made his body tremble slightly, and his right foot took half a step back! Gan Fengchi saw that nearly 110% of his internal strength had only knocked the young man back half a step, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows, he laughed and said: "There are heroes from generation to generation, new generations replace old ones!"If you are the rarest of men, you are qualified to sit with my phoenix, the tortoise of Mr. Wangba, and the evil dragon that the eagle is looking at, and drink flower wine together! After finishing speaking, Fengxiang Tianchi used his body skills again. For the time being, he didn't want to get entangled with this handsome, not weak, and quite likable young man. He also wanted to learn more about the actual situation of that sinister dragon , So he floated away alone. The young man didn't stop him, he didn't chase after him, he knew it was too late to chase, and it was useless to stop him, he just stretched out his hand to receive the post, he was so shaken that he couldn't hold on to his position, and after taking half a step back, he tried to figure out that he was still better than Gan Fengchi after all. This Jiangnan hero is two chips behind! He watched Gan Fengchi's fluttering back like a phoenix soaring nine days, a little lost in thought, and muttered to himself: Why does Daxia Gan say that I am the linden among men?Not quite right, I'm a tiger Why doesn't he want to be called Lin and call himself a tiger?Of course he has his reasons! The reason is that there is a character for tiger in his name, and his name is Wei Hutou. Wei Hutou was born by A Ke for Wei Xiaobao, and he is also the eldest of the three siblings of the Wei family. However, the strength of martial arts of the three brothers and sisters Wei Hutou, Wei Tongchui, and Wei Shuangshuang cannot be measured in order of seniority, it is almost in reverse order. The reason is that among Wei Xiaobao's seven wives, Su Quan and Shuang'er are the highest in terms of martial arts. Wei Tongchui was born by Su Quan, and there are many secret medicines and strange tricks of the Dragon Sect. Rooted in the foundation, well-trained in martial arts, very clever and weird! Wei Shuangshuang was born of Princess Jianning, she is beautiful in appearance, and is the common palm of seven mothers, and is loved by everyone!Shuang'er prefers that she has almost the same name as her, and she tries to teach her as much as possible. Therefore, among the three brothers and sisters of the Wei family, no matter when they fight or quarrel, the two elder brothers will inevitably avoid this little sister. ! Strictly speaking, Wei Hutou's cultivation base is the most upright, and his combat stamina may also be the strongest, but to walk the rivers and lakes and deal with ghosts and monsters, it is necessary for his younger brother Wei Tongchui to obtain those strange and weird tricks from the Shenlong Sect. ! Wei Shuangshuang, it's all done!In terms of martial arts, it is the combination of the two elder brothers' great achievements, and also the great achievements of all the mothers. There are orthodox cultivation bases, and unique and unique learning. In terms of personality, there are not only her mother's innate trickery, Princess Jianning, but also her father, Wei Xiaobao's naughty. Inheritance, the sky is not afraid, the earth is not afraid, gods dare to provoke, ghosts dare to provoke, when she comes out of the rivers and lakes, she can really stir up waves and make everyone dizzy! Wei Hutou left Yunnan and arrived in Yangzhou, not at the order of Wei Xiaobao and A Ke's parents, but by sneaking away! The road was taken by Wei Hutou himself, but the idea was given by his younger sister Wei Shuangshuang. Mao Shiba has deep sophistication, guessed right, Wei Chunfang has passed away! Wei Chunfang is blessed, but she thinks her blessings are too small!She was welcomed and raised in Yunnan by her son Wei Xiaobao, and enjoyed the blessing of the first-class Mrs. Lu Ding for more than ten years. One day, surrounded by her son, seven daughter-in-laws, grandsons, and granddaughters, she laughed and died! In order to be filial to his mother after death, Wei Xiaobao also remembered his wish to open a brothel in Yangzhou, and felt that after such a long time, Mao Shiba had probably become a romantic elder in Yangzhou, so he decided to send Wei Chunfang's statue to Xinli In the spring courtyard, they are supported by the incense of some whores and prostitutes! This kind of decision is due to Wei Xiaobao's gambler character! Gamblers pay attention to where they lose, and make money from there!Wei Xiaobao thinks that his mother suffered too much wind, moon and filth in the old Lichun courtyard, and now the statue of her old man should go to the new Lichun courtyard to receive more wind and moon incense, so that Wei Chunfang can find it where he lost it. , I am worthy of my mother, and I have done my best to be filial to my mother. He is a person who thinks about it in his life. He has decided to send the statue to Yangzhou, and the second step is to decide who to send. The candidate is Wei Tongchui! Wei Hutou was not selected because he thought others were too honest. Wei Shuangshuang was not selected because of two reasons.Second, no matter how free and easy Wei Xiaobao is, he always feels that it would be inconvenient to send his own daughter to a brothel Therefore, Wei Tongchui was selected as Wei Tongchui, who has a strong martial arts personality and will only make others suffer in the arena, not himself! That night, Wei Shuangshuang, who got the news the fastest, informed Wei Hutou! After she told Wei Xiaobao's decision, she said again: "Brother, hello, second brother is bad, so I want to help you!"You are the boss, and you should be the first to come out of the rivers and lakes with reasoning!As for Dad's words that he is afraid of you being too honest, I don't think it makes sense!Because, martial arts are practiced, courage is obtained, and experience and insight are obtained!You quickly stole the jade statue of the grandmother and quietly went to Yangzhou!If Dad is annoyed, I will be responsible for coaxing him to calm down, and Mom will also be there to beat and drum There was a slight pause in the voice, lips smacked, tongue stuck out, with a mischievous expression, and he laughed in a low voice: Second brother, I secretly gave him laxatives in his favorite cross-bridge rice noodles, at least he will be laxative. seven days belly Wei Hutou was startled and said: "Little sister, don't be too nonsense, if you blow the second child to death Wei Shuangshuang shook her head with a charming smile, and said: It's the imperial physician's secret medicine for clearing the intestines and clearing the fire, it's guaranteed to be good, not bad for diarrhea!What's more, after you're gone, I'll hit my second brother hard to stop diarrhea for him!And tortured your mother to teach the second brother the Sun God Sword that he has wanted to learn for a long time!With these delays, even if he also enters the Central Plains, you will most likely have become a famous tiger-headed hero Wei Hutou was refreshed when he heard it, nodded to Wei Shuangshuang and said with a smile: "Okay, little sister, thank you, I will go to the Central Plains!"You are right, kung fu is practiced, courage is obtained, maybe when we meet next time, your eldest brother will no longer be honest Wei Shuangshuang said: Brother, you don't have to try to be a villain, just be honest, there's nothing wrong with it.You stole the statue overnight and left quietly!A few months later, the second brother can't stand it anymore, he will definitely come, maybe I will come too, everyone will gather in the Central Plains, it will be very lively, I will give you a very useful thing Speaking of this, he handed over an agarwood bracelet. Wei Hutou was surprised and said: "What's the use of this?"Is it a weapon?Or a hidden weapon? Wei Shuangshuang said: My mother said that it is easy to break into the rivers and lakes, but it is difficult to be king!This is something worn on the wrist of the old emperor of Shunzhi. In case the eldest brother breaks the king's law and has a serious conflict with the people in the government, with this agarwood bracelet in his hand, even Emperor Kangxi will have to be tolerant and polite to you Three points! These few words didn't make Wei Hutou care, he just took the Chenxiang bracelet and put it in his arms. That night, after stealing Wei Chunfang's statue, he left Yunnan and rushed to Yangzhou. When he arrived in Yangzhou, he found that although Xinlichun Courtyard had a large scale, it had yet to be opened at another date. According to his father Wei Xiaobao's intention, Wei Hutou took the statue as Guanyin and placed it on the sacred seat of the hall, and invited the canopy that was originally enshrined Marshal Zhu Bajie, feel wronged, give up your position! After putting the statue away, Wei Hutou went to Lidong Courtyard to find Uncle Mao Shiba, who was aliased as Lord Wangba! It's not good, Uncle Mao's father is old-hearted, and he is hugging a beautiful girl from the Luo Song Dynasty, Siminova, and the phoenix is ​​upside down, and the clouds are spreading the rain! Wei Hu's head was blushing and his heart was pounding when he saw the lively romantic scene, knowing that Mao Shiba would not want to reminisce about the old days, let alone seeing guests, so he quietly left the Lidong Yard, and decided to wait until the new Lichun Yard. On the auspicious day of opening, meet Mao Shiba again, say hello to his father Wei Xiaobao, and give Mao Shiba an unexpected surprise! Although Wei Hutou has not met Mao Shiba for the time being, his whereabouts are not far away, he wanders around the Lichun Garden all day long. Among his father and seven mothers, it can be said that there are all kinds of characters. Although he is new to the rivers and lakes and has little experience, he has already heard a lot!As soon as Gan Fengchi entered and exited the Lichun Garden, Wei Hutou saw his identity from Fengxiang Tianchi's physical skills, blocked the way, and shouted, wanting to fight against famous masters, to test his family's knowledge, how successful is it?Are you qualified enough to compete with the heroes of the world, aspire to the top of the martial arts world, and compete with each other! Although Du Gongbu said that the bow should be strong and the arrow should be long, but Wei Hutou's bow is too strong!Take too long with arrows!He turned to Gan Fengchi, who is almost the most difficult among the Eight Heroes of the South of the Yangtze River, as a touchstone, which made Gan Fengchi disdain to fight, and still wanted to make the young people not be too arrogant. You should know that there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky. The big red invitation card for the opening of Lichun Courtyard made Wei Hu unable to stand upright after accepting the invitation card. He took half a step back and hit a small nail! Wei Hutou has a complex expression He blushed first, then laughed and then frowned I couldn't hold back the post, my body trembled slightly, and I took half a step back, of course I couldn't help but blush! Hearing Gan Fengchi say that Mao Shiba is a turtle, thinking of Mao Shiba's alias, and his chubby figure, he really looks like a giant tortoise, or the appearance of a big bastard, why not Wei Hutou? laughed? The reason for frowning in the end is because of the dragon! Wei Hutou also heard that strange people came from Beijing in Yangzhou City, making Yangzhou civil and military officials scramble to please him, so he had the same idea as Mao Shiba, guessing about Kangxi, not sure if it was the one his father Wei Xiaobao often mentioned Emperor Xiaoxuanzi, who is in love with each other, travels south in micro-clothes, and comes to Xiaozhuzi to reminisce about the old days If it was really Kangxi, it would have been too hard to serve him at the grand opening banquet of Xinlichun Courtyard But my father always said that Xiao Xuanzi has a good appearance and a good heart, and he is a good emperor that is rare in ancient and modern times. Why did Gan Fengchi just say that the dragon was seen by the eagle and the tiger, and added a word of evil on the dragon! A good emperor is a real dragon, a golden dragon, never an evil dragon! Since Gan Fengchi used the word Nielong, it seems that the strange guest who came to Yangzhou from Beijing was not Kangxi. Not Kangxi, who is that person?It is rumored that he brought a lot of civil and military servants such as cleaning guests and guards, and spent a lot of money like water, which is clearly an imperial style, especially in Yangzhou, no matter how high-ranking civil and military officials are, they all bow to him and pout. The deliberate flattery of the butt showed Gan Fengchi's so-called evil dragon's special identity! Unable to guess the background of the dragon, Wei Hutou frowned secretly! But not long after his brows were furrowed, Wei Hu's head had an idea He reached into his arms first, and took out something from his body pocket. It was an aloes bracelet given to him by his younger sister Wei Shuangshuang on the eve of his departure from Yunnan. Wei Hutou remembered clearly, the younger sister said that this is the imperial adornment on the wrist of the old emperor of Shunzhi, with this agarwood bracelet in his hand, even if Kangxi was in front of him, nothing serious would happen!He can't help but be tolerant and polite to those who have the former emperor's imperial property! That being the case, why don't I go to Doudou that Beijing geek and touch the dragon before the opening banquet of Xinlichun Courtyard where there are gambling and whoring? Woolen cloth? Dad and all the mothers said that you must know yourself and the enemy before you can win all battles!If I can get a general idea of ​​the dragon shape, dragon power, dragon species and other information of that evil dragon first, then I can know the extent to which it can probably do evil. And then quietly tell the rough-headed Uncle Mao's father Wang Ba Taiye with these valuable information, so that Uncle Mao can be confident, how can Jielin?How about An Feng?How to welcome the dragon?In an orderly manner, he made his plan to open Xinli Chunyuan and monopolize Yangzhou Fengyue! Although there is a common saying: I have learned the tortoise method recently, and I will shrink my head when I can shrink my head!But the tortoise uncle can't implement this philosophy of shrinking his head. He is the boss of Xinlichunyuan, and he also monopolizes Yangzhou Fengyue. Just look at this flip! Qunfang holds a feast, and the four spirits will meet in Yangzhou. Among the so-called four spirits, the tortoise has the tortoise, the phoenix has the name of the phoenix, the lin has the gall, and the dragon has the majesty of the dragon. Who is the spirit and who is not?It seems that in addition to the self-cultivation of each person's confidant, it also depends on the degree of each person's knowledge of the enemy. From this aspect, the phoenix seems to be the highest!Because Gan Fengchi has not only seen the turtle, but also figured out the dragon, (otherwise he wouldn't just use the word "evil dragon", which is the eagle's eyes and the tiger's eyes). Turtle is not bad either, Mao Guibo sits in Yangzhou, and he has outstanding people. He has tried his best to win over Ganfengchi. He must also secretly pay attention to the dragon's message, and realize from the statue that someone from Yunnan came from, but he doesn't know who it is.But after seeing himself, he will immediately realize it! On Long's side, there are more manpower, civil and military servants, plus officials of all sizes in Yangzhou, which one is not his eyes and ears?Maybe his known situation is more profound than Gan Fengchi! I am the worst. I have just entered the Central Plains, and I am unfamiliar with everything, except that I am familiar with Mao Guibo's secret background, and I have heard of Gan Fengchi's name. Just then, I received a big red invitation from my hand, and learned how to be a Jiangnan hero. Apart from living up to its reputation, what else do you know?It's just blank! In comparison, it was too embarrassing and too dangerous!Hurry up and touch the dragon yourself, if you can find some clues, it is an excellent gift for Uncle Mao Gui to congratulate him on the opening of Xinlichun Courtyard!Even if you can't figure out the clues, or even get into trouble, it's just your own personal incident, and it won't implicate Mao Guibo and Xinli Chunyuan! After thinking it through, Wei Hutou's eyebrows no longer frown, and his expression immediately brightens!He is a daring newborn calf. He wants to touch the dragon, fight the dragon, and even want to count how many scales are there on that wicked dragon? Long, is it easy to find? not difficult! Because, this dragon is indeed an evil dragon, not only does he have great ambitions, but he is also unwilling to be lonely! Of course he is not Kangxi, he is the fourth son of Kangxi, named Yinzhen. Kangxi was getting older and his body was weak, and it seemed that he would not be on the throne soon. Among his more than ten sons, there must be one who will soon succeed Deng Dabao as the emperor who will rule the world. Therefore, all the officials inside and outside are in trouble, because they can't be sure, which prince will be the real dragon emperor in the future? In case the princes were not well catered to and got offended when they were elder brothers, then when this elder brother becomes the emperor, he will have the power of misfortune, fortune, life and death in his hands! All the officials inside and outside, because they are related to their own interests, can see clearly and discern that each prince has his strengths and weaknesses! The eldest elder brother was retired early. In terms of ranking, the second elder brother takes priority. In terms of personal intelligence and behavior, the fourth elder brother is the most heroic. However, Kangxi himself is kind, but he seems to like the fourteenth elder brother who is similar to him in personality! Thus, the second elder brother, the fourth elder brother, and the fourteenth elder brother became the most popular figures among the princes! Why is it said that the fourth elder brother's mind and behavior are the most heroic?Because the other princes only pampered and pampered them in the temple, this fourth prince firmly believed that he would become a great treasure in the future, so while being generous with the powerful and powerful party support among the important officials in the court, he often wandered around the rivers and lakes to understand the general trend of the world and practice He has become quite a good internal martial artist, and even entered Shaolin Sophora flavescens! Why doesn't Kangxi like such a caring son? Kangxi has another unique set of his skills of judging people.From a few small things, he saw that the fourth elder brother was too taboo, too cruel, and too vicious. He was just a hero in the world, not a man suitable for a king! Kangxi felt that the Manchurians took advantage of Wu Sangui's change and Li Zicheng's rebellion to enter the pass and seize the Han Dynasty. If they don't try their best to be open-minded and be kind in everything, they will lose the hearts of the world, plant ethnic estrangement, and hide the root of disaster!This kind of national power that has been growing silently is invisible to the eye, but its essence is extremely strong. Once it breaks out, it will definitely be out of control! Therefore, he does not promote literary inquisition, strictly prohibits oppressing the Han people, and tries his best to assimilate the Manchus and Hans, whether overtly or covertly. It is best to eliminate this barrier! Therefore, he felt that the fourth elder brother was too ruthless. If he passed on such an unkind king, it would not only violate his traditional thinking of the Man-Han family, but it would definitely not be a blessing for the world! The fourth elder brother is a man who knows by observation. He knows that the old man doesn't like him very much, but because of his arrogant nature, he doesn't want to wrong Chenghuan, so he simply stays away from Kangxi and often parades around to avoid being scolded. , but the arrangements are extremely strict, and if there is any major disturbance, he will know it immediately even if he is far away in the rivers and lakes! This time I came to Yangzhou, it coincided with the opening of Xinlichun Courtyard, and it happened to be lively, it was not premeditated, I wanted to find Wei Xiaobao some trouble. All the civil and military officials in Yangzhou were both happy and afraid when they saw this elder brother from Beijing! The good news is that most of the elder brothers love to play and love to flatter. As long as we find a few more stunning beauties, as well as the exquisite food and drink in Yangzhou, and flatter the fourth elder brother to the heart of the dragon, after he changes from a potential dragon to a real dragon, all the people will be happy. Those who return the report must be very popular and rich, get promoted and get rich! The most fearful thing is that among all the elder brothers, the fourth elder brother is the most shrewd and difficult to deal with. If the flattery is not good enough, maybe the desire for promotion and fortune will be inconsistent, and he will lose his love and lose his head! Therefore, the fourth elder brother just arrived in Yangzhou, and Bu Shiren, the younger brother-in-law of the Yangzhou mansion, has been instructed by his brother-in-law to choose a few outstanding people from among the flowers and plants, and send them to sleep for the fourth elder brother. . Who knows if the fourth elder brother doesn't like this kind of tone, or his vision is too high?Unexpectedly, there was no joy, and he only curled the corner of his mouth slightly, and said strangely! This strange sound really made all the civil and military officials in Yangzhou, big and small, who were catering to him around him, all start to feel strange, and they all showed strange expressions on their faces! The fourth elder brother is a very smart person, just by looking at their expressions, he can tell why they are so strange.Then he waved his hand and dismissed the vulgar girls who were selected by Bu Shiren and sent to sleep with him, and said in a condescending way: Yangzhou is the famous capital of Huaizuo, the best place in Zhuxi, and the famous holy land of wind and moon, why did you only choose it? Wouldn't it be strange to have such a vulgar fan full of dust and dust? When the officials in Yangzhou heard the words, they looked at each other face to face and didn't know how to answer, but the Yangzhou governor felt that as a local supervisor, he couldn't just pretend to be confused, so he quickly bowed his waist, swayed his shoulders and said with a flattering smile: "Respond to the words of the Fourth Highness." As soon as the words came out, the fourth elder brother's face darkened, and he scolded: "Your family has such a bad memory, how can you take charge of the general government?"Manage the people!I have told you a long time ago that no matter who you are, you don't have to call me Your Highness, you have to call me Fourth Master Jin, have you forgotten? The Yangzhou government official has always been not only black-hearted, but also extremely thick-skinned. Although he touched this big nail in public, he showed no signs of resentment.Willing to be punished by the fourth master! The fourth elder brother was amused by his brazen look, waved his hand and said: "It's a small matter, forget it in the past!"Go on, what did you want to say to me just now? Seeing that Longyan had passed away, the Yangzhou Mansion respected, he felt relieved, stretched out his hand to wipe off the cold sweat on his forehead, and said with a smile: It is not that there are no outstanding beauties in Yangzhou, but they were recruited by the Xinlichun Academy with a lot of money, and the Xinlichun Academy has not yet opened. choosing auspicious At this point, someone said something strange again in a low voice. The fourth elder brother said: What's so strange? The man said that he knew a lot, and he lifted his spirits and said: The Xinlichun Academy not only recruits outstanding local beauties with excellent talents at a very high price. Isn't it strange that the beauties from the Luo Song Dynasty brought by the Raksha Kingdom have amazing hands and eyes, and amazing financial resources?The origin of the identity of the host, Mr. Wang Ba, also seemed very strange! The fourth elder brother glanced at everyone, and asked: among you, is it true that none of you know the identity of the owner of Xinlichunyuan? Everyone was silent, the fourth elder brother couldn't help snorting, and said with a sneer: You are so capable, what do you do on weekdays, do you sleep with your arms around those vulgar fans at night, and scrape land during the day? The level of questioning in these few sentences is much heavier than before. A group of civil and military officials are really like sifting through chaff. Who can answer? It's still Yangzhou Mansion's thick-skinned, bold, straightened back, tremblingly said: "Slaves wait for mediocrity, where can I look up to the fourth and fourth master's Tiancong Shengrui?" Maybe it's Tian Cong Shengrui's four characters, which are apposite and suitable for the fourth elder brother's taste, so that he turned his anger into joy, and said with a smile: "Okay, let me tell you that the real backstage boss of Xinli Chunyuan is already informed." Wei Xiaobao, the former first-class deer and tripod Duke of Guan Zhishi, and several Luo Song beauties in the courtyard are by no means counterfeit, they are genuine goods, they were brought back by Wei Xiaobao during his expedition to Yaksa. On behalf of Wei Xiaobao, he opened a brothel in Yangzhou, just fulfilling his wish! Be obedient!Good winter! The first one is that Xinli Chunyuan actually has a backer who is so obedient as Wei Xiaobao, the former Luding Duke! The second obedient winter is that the civil and military officials who have lived in Yangzhou for a long time have no idea, but the fourth elder brother who has just arrived in Yangzhou knows it well! This well-known shrewd and powerful fourth elder brother really lives up to his prestige, so shrewd as to be obedient, so powerful that he is obediently Long Dong! The fourth elder brother glanced at the group of Yangzhou civil and military officials who shouted in their hearts to be obedient, obedient and long winter, sneered, reached into his arms, and slowly took out a lacquered red invitation card. The brother-in-law of Yangzhou Mansion, Bu Shiren, didn't need to read the text of the invitation, but he knew that it was for the opening of the Xinlichun Courtyard to invite guests at the rather elegant appearance of the red lacquered gold. Have you received this invitation and are you ready to visit Xinlichunyuan? The fourth elder brother smiled and said: I am tired of seeing the Slender West Lake, Wuting Bridge, Pingshan Hall, etc. in Yangzhou. I am tired of eating restaurants such as Fuchun and Yuhuachun. Fortunately, there are new restaurants. The opening of the Lichun Courtyard is exciting, otherwise, I already want to go back to Beijing! Yangzhou Fuzun heard that the fourth elder brother was going to the opening feast of Xinlichunyuan, he couldn't help but frowned deeply and said: Although Xinlichunyuan has a lot of background, since it is a brothel, the quality of banquets at the opening is inevitable. Very complicated!If the fourth master is determined to condescend to his dignity, he must send more experts to protect him in secret. The fourth elder brother laughed and said: "Are there any good hands in your Yangzhou government office?"As far as I'm concerned, they're nothing more than wine bags and rice bags There was a slight pause in his voice, he glanced at the two scribes sitting beside him, then smiled again and said: Master, I have plenty!What's more, I have also entered Shaolin and ate porridge overnight, so I can protect myself quite well! At this point, he reached out and pressed the wine glass in front of him. The wine glass was intact, but it fell into the wooden table, and the mouth of the glass was flush with the table! The table is made of high-quality red sandalwood, the texture is very strong, this hand fully demonstrates the inner strength and profound skills passed down by the fourth elder brother, which has been achieved by first-class masters in the world! As the civil and military officials in Yangzhou changed their colors in astonishment, the fourth elder brother sneered and said: I ask you a question, whoever can answer it correctly will be promoted immediately! The hearts of these officials, big and small, who are keen on fame and fortune, especially the Yangzhou Fuzun, who claims to be good at figuring out people's wishes and flattering his superiors, pricked up their ears and listened to the questions of the fourth elder brother, thinking that this time they must show off their cleverness and try to make money. Governor of Jiangsu, do it! They were all dreaming of wealth and wealth, and the fourth elder brother asked coldly: "I traveled to Yangzhou in the south this time, why did I come here?"Whoever can answer correctly will be awarded a higher rank!But if you talk nonsense, you will be punished immediately! There are rewards and punishments, this fourth elder brother is indeed shrewd and powerful! The officials in Yangzhou have become a group of silent chills again, including the Yangzhou government officials who claim to be good at flattering, and I am afraid that if the flattery is slapped on the horse's feet, I may not be able to withstand the power of the kick The fourth elder brother snorted and said: You guys are really good at being officials!Since you can't answer, I'll announce the answer, but whoever dares to reveal my real intention will walk away, and even move his head! Yangzhou officials, big and small, couldn't help stretching out their hands to touch their necks, hoping that the fourth elder brother didn't need to explain why he came, lest one of them would be bad and cause disaster, but no one dared to stop it! The fourth elder brother took another wine glass, took a sip of the wine and said: I am here for the upcoming opening of Xinlichunyuan! The officials in Yangzhou heard a little strange, but it was inconvenient to ask further questions, so they had to wait quietly for the fourth elder brother to explain himself. The fourth elder brother swept his eyes away, and said slowly: I am in Beijing, but I have made friends all over the world, and I am very good at seeing and hearing.When I heard that the Xinlichun Courtyard in Yangzhou was under construction and was about to resume business, and the backstage boss was Wei Xiaobao, I was suspicious and decided to come here to have a look I have doubts, what is the doubt?Everyone in Yangzhou wanted to ask, but no one dared to ask! Fortunately, no one asked, and the fourth elder brother would talk about it himself. He said: Wei Xiaobao wanted to resign from his official position as soon as Lu Dinggong quit, and after resigning, he lived in Yunnan in a dishonest manner, but sent someone to represent him. He spent a large sum of money to open a brothel in Yangzhou, as if he wanted to monopolize Huai Zuo's romance!What is his plan? Another question, anyone answer? Yes, but the person who answered was the fourth elder brother himself, and he said: Wei Xiaobao is a naughty rascal, if his act of opening a brothel in Yangzhou is aroused by naughtiness and nostalgia, I think he is the favorite of his father On, as long as it doesn't seriously hinder the king's law, I don't care about him!But Wei Xiaobao used to be the head of the Tiandihui, and his master Chen Jinnan was the chief criminal who attempted to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. If Wei Xiaobao still colludes with the Tiandihui, and even uses the Xinlichunyuan as a rebellious center for recruiting troops, I will容他不得，立加剪除，以斷後患！父皇縱加怪責，也顧不得了！ I see 但，四阿哥夠厲害！韋小寶也極難纏！揚州群官又心中打鼓的，誰也不敢輕易接口 四阿哥以眼角餘光，掃了揚州府尊，暨他身邊幾名文武官員一瞥，淡淡說道：故而，我來揚州，不是為了貪吃喝、看風景，也不是為了玩女人！是為了偵察天地會是否死灰復燃，又起反清復明妄念？以及韋小寶的新麗春院，究竟只是單純宴樂之地？抑或其中藏有什麼花樣？對新麗春院的開業熱鬧，自然要參加，我有自己保護自己的本領，也有得力夠用的貼身隨員，這一方面，不勞你們費心，你們只消保守機密，並從各方面悄悄以各種手段，打聽有關天地會，或其他不法集團的有關叛逆舉措！我這人辦事認真，不講情面，有功就賞，有過就罰！究竟是升官發財，還是掉腦袋、捲舖蓋，全看你們自己表現如何了。 乖乖，又是一個乖乖隆的冬！四阿哥神情冷峻，語重如山，一頂大帽子，把這般平常遇功則搶，遇過則推，只想發大財，不想辦大事的文武鄉願官員，壓得誰都不敢抬頭，甚至於喘上一口大氣！ 他既不要女人，言語又交代完畢，揚州府尊遂極為知趣的，對小舅子卜世仁一施眼色，向四阿哥打千請安，領先告退。 四阿哥一端茶杯，送走群官以後，突然目注後窗，微笑說道：送走俗客，應該接貴客了，這位貴客的輕功太好，身分必高，不是江南八俠之一，便是那位世外高人。周老二、周老三替我吩咐廚下另換好酒，命紅綃送來，你們不必在我身邊伺候，我這主人，若太俗氣，客人會不高興的！ 適才在四阿哥身邊伺候的、兩名貌相酷肖的白衣文士，恭身領命，雙雙出室。 後窗開了，從窗外像張樹葉般的，飄進一個出乎四阿哥意料的人！ 使四阿哥出乎意料的是這人太年輕！年輕得僅約二十上下。 年齡甚輕，相貌極俊，神情則又傲又冷，四阿哥才見來人現身，便呀了一聲，失笑說道：所謂世外高人，不是白鬍子老公公，便是白髮老婆婆，江南八俠中，則不單只有甘鳳池一位，現在揚州，也決無任何一位，與你年貌相若！可見我適才之言，不過自作聰明，全猜錯了！我應該怎麼稱呼你呢？ 這年輕人面對能令揚州大小文武官員，為之膽寒心懾的四阿哥，居然毫無怯色，大大方方的，在四阿哥身旁坐了下來，揚眉說道：論名兒，我是虎，論別稱，有人說我是麟，論彼此關係，你大概應該叫我一聲表弟！ 四阿哥的雙目中閃射神光，盯在這相當灑脫，但雙眉微鎖，似乎有點不大高興的年輕人身上，略一打量，苦笑說道：這關係不容易猜！表兄弟牽涉太廣，有姑表姨表，俗語云：一表三千里，你既是我表弟，莫令我這糊塗表哥，有所簡慢，縱令不願自報姓名，也何妨再給我一點暗示？ 話方至此，發現年輕人的兩道劍眉，皺得越來越緊，不禁訝然問道：表弟，你好像不大高興？ 年輕人哼了一聲道：你剛才罵我爹爹，我當然不大高興！ 四阿哥詫道：我剛才曾罵你爹爹？ 年輕人噘著嘴兒，接口道：你剛才說我爹爹是個頑皮搗蛋鬼嘛！ 四阿哥想起自己對揚州文武官員批評韋小寶之言，恍然失笑說道：我明白了，我明白了，你雖非我建寧公主姑母親生，也應該叫她媽媽，你名兒中雖有虎字，定是韋家大表弟，從雲南遠來的韋虎頭吧！ 年輕人當然正是韋虎頭，他雖點了點頭，臉上仍呈露不高興的神色！ 四阿哥失笑道：虎表弟不要不高興了，頑皮搗蛋是你爸爸天生性格！他的傳奇事業，也多半就成功在這四個字兒之上！這是中肯批評，並不是什麼很壞很惡的罵人字眼！ 韋虎頭撇嘴道：算你會解釋，但你不應該懷疑我爹爹可能會叛逆啊？ 四阿哥笑道：為天下者，縱對自己的枕邊人，也應該略存警惕，保留三分戒意！你不能否認你爹爹曾是天地會的堂主，也不能否認天地會一向都企圖反清復明吧？ 韋虎頭突然瞪起兩隻虎目叫道：我有話要問你，你能答覆我嗎？ 四阿哥笑道：請儘管問。 韋虎頭正色朗聲說道：五台山救駕之時若叛，順治老皇爺與當今康熙天子，可能遭受大劫！雲南探敵時若叛，可與吳三桂互相勾結，席捲西南，進而逐鹿中原，問鼎天下！遠交莫斯科，出征雅克薩時若叛，可以借助外力，動搖國本！我爹爹在那些絕對有利的時機下不叛，會在仁政愛民，四海歸心，天下大定的如今情況下叛麼？你這種疑心，豈不等於罵我爹爹是個超級笨蛋！ 四阿哥聽得動容，居然向韋虎頭拱了拱手，點頭笑道：承教！teach!你這位虎表弟的論理相當高明，使我深深瞭解生性雖極頑皮搗蛋，但卻重情重義，絕頂聰明的韋家姑丈，不會在失時辭官以後，甘為此大不韙的！ 韋虎頭一眼瞥見尚擺在桌上的那張泥金大紅請帖，揚眉笑道：你既知道新麗春院不會成為什麼招兵買馬的叛逆中樞，定然不會紆尊降貴，再參與這場熱鬧 四阿哥不等韋虎頭再往下說，便接口笑道：既到揚州，為什麼不參加這場淮左名都的風月盛事呢！不瞞你虎表弟說，父皇多病，嗣君未定，你的手足單純，我的弟兄複雜，誰都想培養各種實力，以期逐鹿問鼎！在這種情況下，朋友自然越多越好，我遂想利用這項機會，好好結交些風塵奇士、江南人物！ 說至此處，突然以一種希冀神色，日注韋虎頭道：江南人物未交，雲南人物已到！你是韋家之虎，也是江湖之麟，肯不肯好好幫我？像你爹爹一樣，將來也在廟堂中，闖它一番動地驚天事業，封個一等公侯！ 韋虎頭毫不考慮的，搖頭答道：對不起，辦不到！因為我是山林之性，受不得絲毫羈束，決非夤緣富貴的巖廊之材！ 四阿哥聞言，並不失望，好似韋虎頭這種答覆，早在他意料之中，只是微微一笑說道：好，我不勉強！但你既然不肯幫我，應該也不會幫我其他兄弟，尤其是我二哥或十四弟吧？ 韋虎頭爽朗已極的，應聲答道：絕對不會，這一點我可以保證，但我要先加說明，你既參與熱鬧，在新麗春院的開業盛宴上，我想和你當眾賭上一場 四阿哥興趣盎然的，撫掌笑道：妙極，妙極！韋姑丈是個大賭鬼，你家學淵源，必精此道！我因時常在江湖行走！對此也不外，大家既然都有興趣，自然一拍即合，新麗春院的開業盛宴，既有嫖，又有賭，越發多趣味了！但不知以什麼作為賭具，什麼作為賭法？ 韋虎頭笑道：臨場揭曉，豈不格外有趣？但我們不妨先建立一項默契就是，賭具由你選，賭注由我定如何？ 四阿哥伸出手來，和韋虎頭擊了一掌笑道：好，我們一言為定！但我聽說韋家姑丈只不過精於骰子，要幾點，便能擲出幾點，想不到你卻各種賭具都精，真所謂青出於藍、冰寒於水 韋虎頭搖手叫道：你這位表哥，委實疑心太大，又弄錯了！我爹爹和人賭錢，或許會點手法，我卻全憑運氣！要輸，輸個幹乾脆脆！要贏，就贏你服服貼貼！故而，才由你臨時選擇賭具，既然全憑運氣，賭得公平，任何賭具，都是一樣機會！ 語音至此微頓，向四阿哥望了一眼，嘴角微撇又道：你這位表哥，似乎並不怎麼大方，適才叫人換酒，直到如今還點滴未見 四阿哥大笑道：虎表弟莫挑眼，好酒早就來了，送酒人玲瓏識趣，見我們談得有勁，避免打斷興頭，在門外站了好一會了！ 說完，扭頭向門外笑道：紅綃，拿酒來吧！這位虎少爺相當豪爽，雄論滔滔，口中定渴，你放下酒菜，再替他烹上一壺生津解渴的黃山雲霧茶吧！ 門外，應聲走出一位手捧銀盤的絕代佳人！ 韋虎頭才抬頭，目光微注，便不禁全身一震！ 這位絕代佳人，只不過十八、九歲芳齡，目如秋水，眉若遠山，瑤鼻朱唇，玉腮貝齒，身材之美則真所謂修短適中，穠纖合度，肩若削成，腰如約素，使韋虎頭才一注目，便眼光發直，無法離開，心中暗忖：妹子韋雙雙，已稱人間絕色！想不到皇家富貴，真個羨人，四阿哥身邊的一個送酒丫頭，不論姿色風華，便已和妹子韋雙雙瑜亮並生，難判上下！ 紅綃見了韋虎頭的出神模樣，嫣然一笑，放下盤中酒菜，輕啟朱唇說道：虎少爺，您吃慣了雲南宣腿，換個金華蔣腿，嚐嚐新吧！另外一碟涼拌乾絲，一碟鯽魚舌頭，一碟蟹粉獅子頭，都是揚州名廚的拿手小菜！酒是百年陳紹狀元紅，我去用金山寺快馬送到的江心水，烹壺好茶，再來替虎少爺斟酒！ 紅綃一走，韋虎頭的神色立即恢復正常，伸手取起酒壺，毫不客套的嘴對嘴兒，一口氣便把壺中的狀元紅美酒，喝了個乾乾淨淨！ 幾味揚州佳餚，他不吃了，舉袖一抹口邊餘瀝，站起身來，向四阿哥笑道：大熱鬧就在眼前，我們等新麗春院中，快聚之時，彼此再分床狂嫖，同桌大賭，如今，你的虎表弟，有點不勝酒力，我先告退了！ 語首才落，人如燕飛，輕靈已極的，飛出了窗外。
