The sky became overcast in the afternoon, and gray clouds drifted by in the wind.

In Jiangning City, the afternoon session of the martial arts tournament was going on. Crowds gathered in restaurants and teahouses near the venue. People from various backgrounds were also coming and going on the streets. After each of the attention-grabbing matches, the people responsible for delivering the news ran around.

On the street, evidence of winning or losing compensation was brought to various gambling games nearby. Some people won the bets and were very happy, while others were thrown into the street with sad faces. People chased them, kicked them and beat them up. All parties, big and small, were talking about business.

Meeting and communicating in such a lively atmosphere was a joyful scene.

At the east end of the city, the people who left Zhong'anfang's "Juxian Residence" dispersed on the streets soon after. Shi Weiyang was slightly concerned about the lively competition taking place in the center of the city, but then he calmed down.

, together with Wu Chennan, walked in the direction of Wuhu Inn in a low-key and natural manner.

When he first came to the Wuhu Inn to arrest someone, he didn't expect that the inn was not a good one. It would resist stubbornly and kill in a big way, but it turned out to be bad. This time, Wu Chennan reminded him and he learned his lesson.

, first made the necessary preparations, then selected the pathfinder, and quietly moved towards the inn to surround them.

 After coming out, I still felt a little uneasy after all.

 "My dad's side... really won't be angry about this..."

Seeing his hesitation, Wu Chennan was not surprised and said with a smile: "If Shi Gong really doesn't allow it, sir, you will never be able to bring these people out."

"...That's true." Shi Weiyang's personnel transfer on the Baofeng. Although he did not report it directly to his father this time, he still received the nods from several shopkeepers in Juxianju. After thinking about it, he put it down a little.

Xinlai. But then he said: "But if... there is really something fishy in the inn, will it cause trouble out of control again... I mean, my father, what kind of result will he probably want..."

"I don't think you need to worry too much, sir." Wu Chennan said, "You are the son of Shi Gong, and your future achievements will not lie in one or two small things. You come out to do things to show everyone that you have great skills.

You still have power, and you also have the means to control it. What Shi Gong wants to see is your progress, sir, and it may not be the details of these two things..."

It only took two years for the Fairness Party to make its fortune. Baofenghao took advantage of the situation, and then Shi Weiyang stepped in to take charge of the matter, and the time was even shorter. At the beginning, he held great power and was praised by all parties, which naturally led to expansion. This time due to Yan Yunzhi's incident

After encountering a series of setbacks, I became uneasy again.

Wu Chennan is a scholar who has read too many books, compared to Gongjin and Wuhou. Before the Shi family became prosperous, he was left out for a long time. Now he finally got the opportunity to be trusted by Shi Weiyang, so he thought and comforted this temperamental man.

An unattractive childhood friend.

"Of course, Shi Gong will naturally have his own ideas on how to deal with the Five Lakes Inn carefully, but these ideas are beyond Chen Nan's ability to speculate. Wei Yang, you and I are living in troubled times, so we can't talk about it.

When soldiers come to cover up water and earth, when something happens, you should forge ahead and deal with it. Although Mr. Shi has reprimanded you for your previous actions, I think the last thing he wants to see is that you are really confined to your home and dejected.

, the scene of long and short sighs, think about it, is it so?"

 Shi Weiyang was shocked: "Chennan is still thorough."

The two rode forward on horseback. After talking like this for a while, Shi Weiyang's will gradually strengthened and he became more clear about the purpose of this trip. After passing through several long streets in this way, they talked about the martial arts competition in the center of the city while chatting.

Wu Chennan waved his hand casually: "The arena over there is just a gimmick to attract the attention of outsiders. For our Fairness Party, the really important things are not there. Whether this meeting goes well or not will be the most important thing in the world in the future.

The most important thing.”

Then he introduced in detail the progress of the meetings in recent days, talked about the most acute conflicts between Zhou Shang and others, and mentioned several small forces such as Dalongtou. After that, he couldn't help but mention the matters related to Wuhu Inn.

"book club".

Shi Weiyang said: "Privately, I heard that this book club may be related to Southwest Black Flag."

Wu Chennan shook his head and said with a smile: "They are just some people with good intentions, using the name of Southwest to create trouble secretly. Today's Fair Party, if you say that the party of King Yama can be summed up, it is 'going to extremes'. Reading Club can summarize it

It is to "establish rules". In the name of Southwest, they say that the internal rules of the Fair Party are too lax. The recently issued pamphlet states that including King He Wen of Fair Party, it will be difficult for the five parties to last long, but the content in that booklet

, it is said that it is not the original version from the Southwest, but has been modified by thoughtful people."

"But who could be the person behind this..."

“Young master, you don’t need to care.” Wu Chennan smiled, “Sir, do you know whose tiger skin our Fair Party is robbing us of?”

This question is too simple. Shi Weiyang raised his eyebrows: "Of course it's the southwest."

"That's right. The reason we started the uprising was to pull the tiger skin of the Southwest Chinese Army. But today, everyone within us knows that the Justice Party and the Chinese Army are completely different things. We used the tiger skin to make a banner.

There are five great kings in power, but if someone wants to pull the tiger's skin from Southwest, what does he want to do? And whose taboo is it the most offensive?"

Wu Chennan shook his head and said with a smile: "Since ancient times, the emperor has been called the emperor. If he calls himself the emperor, will he allow others to call him the emperor? He Wen pretended to be the Huaxia Army to gain power. If there are still people who dare to call the Huaxia Army, then his ambition is nothing more than

We have seized power... Young Master, in this power arena since ancient times, the division of power has been discussed. If we seize power, it will be a matter of life and death."

"It is also for this reason that after the five kings of the Fairness Party, there are still big dragon leaders and other forces that can slowly rise up and even sit together to discuss things, but there is only a reading group. In the past six months, all parties have been killed... The people behind this,

He is too ambitious, and he dares to say that he is the Chinese orthodoxy when he is still young. It is ridiculous that there are still ignorant people in the world. It is a joke to say that the man behind the reading club is King Ping Ping himself... Haha, how could your Majesty rebel...

"

Wu Chennan talked eloquently and scolded Fang Qiu. Shi Weiyang's doubts were all cleared up, and he looked at his childhood friend with admiration. The two of them arrived at a street near Wuhu Inn, found a teahouse and sat down, waiting for each other.

In the time arranged by Fang, Shi Weiyang asked Wu Chennan in-depth about his ambitions. Only then did he understand that this companion who used to like to stay at home and study was a well-educated person, and he also wanted to take advantage of the troubled times to make a career.

.

Shi Weiyang felt ashamed. At this moment, he felt that his success in the past one or two years was more like a game. At that moment, he confessed his feelings to Wu Chennan and said: "... I used to be frivolous with Meng Lang.

If I encounter many things in the future, I ask Brother Wu to be by my side and give me some advice. Even if I am ridiculous, Brother Wu will just scold me and wake me up. I am a man who really wants to do great things in this world.

, I was so happy just now..."

Wu Chennan also took his hand and bowed down: "You and I, brothers, why do you have to do this? It's what you should do..." He acted like Zhuge Liang when he met the Ming Dynasty. Both of them were still young, and when they met the Ming Dynasty,

, as soon as I met the supporter, the whole tea house almost burst out with the light of endeavor.

After such a "guest and host" scene, when we talk about things again, we see the problem from a broader and more practical perspective. At this time, the preparations for the Wuhu Inn are being completed one after another, and the pioneers are coming back to report one after another.

After receiving the information from the inn, Wu Chennan then presented Shi Weiyang with a plan that was like a letter of surrender.

"...Actually, not to mention the Wuhu Inn, all the things happening around the young master these days are due to the departure of Miss Yan. But from Chen Nan's point of view, although Miss Yan left resolutely, she may not be able to get her back.

It’s really that difficult to handle.”

"Oh?" Shi Weiyang stared, "Actually... a few days ago at Jinlou, Shopkeeper Jin and the others almost caught Yan Yunzhi, but they still let her run away. Shopkeeper Jin couldn't recapture her wrist.

She...Chen Nan has any clever ideas, so don’t be too secretive, right?"

As Shi Weiyang spoke, he smiled and clasped his fists in salute, Wu Chennan also smiled: "The master's temperament is too kind. Shopkeeper Jin, perhaps it should be said that it is dark under the lamp, Wei Yang, you have overlooked one thing. Yan

Although the girl left Zhong'anfang regardless, she is not alone. She still has relatives in Jiangning City at this time. I dare to bet you that although Yan Yunzhi is gone, she must be caring about Yan Er privately.

Xia's movements will also concern...whether the business between the Yan family and your Shi family will be really affected."

"Chen Nan is saying..." Shi Weiyang blinked, "...but this Yan family is still a guest of my Shi family after all..."

"The young master took great care of the Yan family. At first, Meng Lang scared Miss Yan away, and afterwards he apologized in a big way, and worked hard to promote the alliance between the Yan family... Under such circumstances, Yan Erxia made some mistakes in the mixed Jiangning.

It's a small accident, who can find fault with the young master?"

Wu Chennan said these words slowly, and then took a step back: "Of course, these strategies may be too far-fetched. Alas, the young master has a kind heart..."

Before he finished speaking, Shi Weiyang grabbed it with both hands and said in a deep voice: "No! A real man acts and does not stick to trivial matters. It was Brother Wu who reminded me. I didn't expect such a difficult thing to be done. After Brother Wu said a few words,

He has pointed out the way. If Brother Wu has any ideas in the future, he must speak frankly. If I am a woman, how can I achieve great things?"

He made a generous self-criticism. After saying this, someone came over to report that preparations for the siege of Wuhu Inn were complete. Although it seemed that the gang of thorns in the inn last time had escaped, but

This was originally a matter of psychological expectation. If he wanted to put on a show here and restore the majesty of the Second Young Master, there would be no problem.

Shi Weiyang waved his hand: "Let's go, first deal with today's Wuhu Inn, and then slowly catch those guys from last time and process them one by one. Brother Wu, since you and I have decided to do something big, we will

Don’t worry about too many details! Let’s do it!”

In just a moment, Shi Weiyang and Wu Chennan walked out of the teahouse and walked along the street towards the stone bridge in front of the Wuhu Inn. The sky had already darkened, and groups of people were gathering towards the inn from all directions. In just a moment, the leader

The expert has already broken in through the door and window.

The situation in Jiangning was not peaceful. Seeing the menacing attack, the first reaction of the people in the inn was not to surrender, but to draw their swords and fight. The first group of people were immediately chopped down in a pool of blood. Next, the people around them

There was a cry: "Catch the murderer of the 'Book Club'."

Groups of people were arrested, and some "Reading Club" pamphlets were found from the bodies lying in a pool of blood, and then a large amount of evidence was found in the walls of the inn. Shi Weiyang,

Wu Chennan strode into the inn and lit the first fire. Then he came out and interrogated some people directly and loudly on the street at Qiaotou, asking them about the "book club" they had been guarding here when they came last time.

"Where did the murderer go?

Someone shouted loudly: "We are the people of the 'farmer' Zhao Jingci, how could you do this!"

Wu Chennan said: "The people last time were all from 'Nong Xian' Zhao Jingci. They were there a few days ago, but they left after something happened. It is clear that there is something wrong in their hearts! You are also with them

——" He and Shi Weiyang shouted, then threw the found "Reading Club" pamphlets in each other's faces.

The flames gradually started to rise, and the sound became louder and louder.

Shi Weiyang said: "The last time I came here, the people watching the fun in the surrounding houses were clearly the accomplices of everyone in this inn. I also found them out and asked me one by one whether they were related to the reading club.

Implicated!"

The Baofeng's operation this time was calculated and prepared very well. When Shi Weiyang gave an order, the thugs surrounding him rushed to all sides and started arresting people. Shi Weiyang remembered clearly the reason why he was blocked last time.

They failed to succeed on the road in front of the inn, but these people also helped each other a lot. Many people who were watching the excitement around them and couldn't run away were caught on the spot. They were questioned and beaten to the ground.

 The fire in the inn was getting stronger, and Shi Weiyang shouted to those around him:

"You people, whether you are involved with the gangsters from the reading club or not, tell me after today that the gangsters who were in the Wuhu Inn in the past will tell me that even if some of them escaped by luck today, I will kill them one by one.

They were all pulled out, and not a single one was left—"

The wind helped the fire, and in the light of the fire, strange pamphlets danced on the street. The people on the Baofeng searched the surrounding area for a while, and found some "evidence". Shi Weiyang's men took the innkeeper and waiter
