The entire Qujiang Pool suddenly fell into silence, and the "informed" Chang'an people turned around and left one after another, unwilling to provoke this nosy matter. Several young men dressed as scholars tightly grabbed the sleeves of their companions who were about to come forward to argue, and warned them in a low voice. After giving instructions, the scholar sighed and gave up after hearing some "kind words".
The young master surnamed Wang who was riding the horse was very satisfied when he saw that no one dared to brush his tiger beard. He glanced sideways at the crowd, snorted softly, and wanted to get on the horse and leave.
"Stop!" I saw a man with a Chinese character face in a dark blue short collar shouting and squeezing his way out of the crowd, helping the little girl who had just recovered from the shock. The man was six feet tall, with sharp eyebrows and tiger eyes. The beard on his face naturally made him speak with great power. I saw him squinting at the young master named Wang who was riding a horse, stroking the sword on his waist with his right hand and sneered: "I wonder whose dog is barking here?" , turns out to be the kid from Wang Welding’s family. That’s no wonder, he’s just like your father, a mad dog!”
These words were extremely vicious, how could the young master named Wang endure it? He was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and laughed a few times, pointed his right hand at the man with the Chinese character face and shouted: "If you are worthy, tell me your name. Master, I don’t want to kill a dog without knowing his name!”
The man with the Chinese character face never looked at Mr. Wang directly from the beginning to the end. After calming the frightened girl for a while, he turned around and gently spread the fingers in front of his nose and said loudly: "I am Weizhou Nanba Nan Jiyun. (Note 1) Whether you change your name or your surname, this life is here. If you have the ability, come and get it. But you little brat doesn’t dare to tell me your own name, but you do evil on the basis of your father’s name. , do you think that when you get married and the bridal chamber is weak, you have to call your grandpa to come and conquer it yourself? It really makes someone laugh!"
The young master surnamed Wang had never experienced such humiliation. He could no longer suppress the anger in his chest. He turned his head and shouted at a follower beside him: "Wang Lu, what are you waiting for? Young Master, I have been bullied to my head, and you are still here." Watching a show? I led someone to break this guy's legs, and I will bear the consequences, sir!"
After receiving the order from his young master, Wang Lu gave instructions to the evil servants around him. In an instant, a dozen evil servants with fleshy faces and strong muscles surrounded Nan Jiyun.
For a time, the atmosphere beside Qujiang Pool became extremely depressing. Many people who came to play quietly walked toward the gate of the square, while some brave ones stood on tiptoes to watch the show of the Nan Da Xia fighting against the evil servants.
Du Jingtian, a young girl, had the worst temperament to see any excitement. When she saw the crowd, she had already crowded over. This only made Li Kuo next to him miserable, and he was sweating profusely from the exhaustion of holding two large bags of food.
"I said Miss Du, can you please stop running around on a whim? Your running around and making trouble is really hard on me, my little follower. The fine cotton boots that I just customized at Suji the day before yesterday are almost wearing out a big hole. Come on!" She complained while trotting, but this lazy tone obviously did not have the effect of touching people's hearts. "Miss Du" still pushed forward in her own way, for fear of missing a paragraph that she could use to chat with her friends in the future. wonderful things.
"Uncle, is this evil young man riding a horse the son of Jing Zhaoyin? What is the origin of that great hero Nan? It is really satisfying to humiliate the evil young man in public!" Du Jingtian finally squeezed into a seat and had not yet taken a breath. , the two cherry lips opened and closed, causing Xiao Qi of the Li family to cover her face with her hands and sigh helplessly.
The middle-aged man in question was obviously very surprised that someone did not know the origin of Mr. Wang. Seeing that everyone on the left and right were paying attention to the confrontation between Nan Nan Daxia and the evil servants, he called Du Jingtian to his side and whispered.
: "That evil young man is the eldest son of Mr. Jing Zhaoyin, whose name is only Zhao. He is a famous dandy in our Chang'an City. He relies on his grandfather's power to bully the good people in the fish and meat village, but because of his grandfather's
The magistrates of Quanqiu, Chang'an, and Wannian counties all turn a blind eye. As long as no one is killed, just pretend they didn't see it, so as not to worry!" After a slight pause, the middle-aged man changed again.
He said in a secondary tone: "As for the Southern Hero, I don't know. After all, there are so many rangers like us in the Tang Dynasty, who can tell which one is good and which one is bad."
The middle-aged man wanted to say more, but saw that a fight was already starting over there, so he left Du Jingtian aside and watched the fun.
But they saw dozens of evil servants under the command of Wang Lu, attacking Nan Jiyun together. This group of people seemed to have no idea about shame. Relying on the strength of their numbers, they attacked every important point of Nan Jiyun's body.
When the harm is gone, a set of boxing techniques are coordinated in a precise and orderly manner, creating a powerful force.
These evil servants have always been working for the tigers in Chang'an City, and they are unpopular if they do bad things. When the people saw that Nan Jiyun was in danger, their hearts immediately started to rise. Some timid girls even covered their eyes, unable to bear to watch anymore!
Unexpectedly, the scene of Zhongnan Jiyun being beaten to the ground by a group of people did not happen. He just shouted softly, raised his toes, and a piece of gravel on the ground went towards the door of an evil servant directly in front. Poor this evil servant
He threw himself in front of Nan Jiyun and couldn't stop. He was hit by the gravel, his face was covered with blood, and he fell to the ground in pain. Two other evil servants attacked Nan Jiyun from the left and right, trying to take advantage of his distraction.
, but Nan Jiyun was no ordinary person. He grabbed the arm of the attacker from the left with his left hand, and with just a slight twist, the evil man let out a long cry of pain and fell to the ground. The evil servant on the right saw the miserable state of his companion.
Apparently the speed had slowed down slightly, but Nan Jiyun didn't give him time to react. He slapped the evil servant in the face with his scabbard, and the evil servant fell to the ground.
Seeing his servants being subdued by this tough guy named Nan one after another, Prince Wang Zhao lost his confidence, but he couldn't just admit defeat, otherwise how could he, Young Master Wang, hang out in Chang'an City in the future?
Thinking of this, Wang Zhao gritted his teeth and shouted at the absent-minded evil servants: "Don't be afraid, whoever beat this barbarian to the ground today, I will reward him with two maids and ten taels of silver when he returns home!"
This sentence had an immediate effect. Driven by interests, the evil servants lost their rationality and launched an even more fierce offensive against Nan Jiyun.
You must know that the purchasing power of silver was very strong during the Kaiyuan Tianbao period. One tael of silver was equivalent to a Kaiyuan Tongbao. In the early Kaiyuan years, a bushel of rice sold for only five cents. Even when the price of rice increased during the Tianbao period, it only cost more than a dozen cents. (Note
2) Therefore, the reward of ten taels of silver is enough for these evil servants to spend a while, not to mention the reward of a maid to warm the bed. You must know that the maids of wealthy families are so beautiful that it is difficult not to be tempted by the double temptation of wealth and sex.
Nan Jiyun had no time to think about all these twists and turns. He only felt that the combat effectiveness of these evil servants seemed to have suddenly increased to a new level. The eyes they looked at him revealed a ray of greed like wild beasts looking at their prey.
However, Nan Jiyun did not panic. He jumped slightly to temporarily avoid the attack of the evil servants. He turned around like an eagle and stood behind the evil servants. With only a slight sweep of his iron legs, all the evil servants gathered together.
They all fell to the ground, and some of them were about to step forward, but when they saw the murderous look in Nan Jiyun's eyes, they couldn't help but stop.
The people of Chang'an present were all excited when they saw this scene. Most of them were oppressed by these evil servants. Although they did not dare to complain due to the power of the other party, the resentment in their hearts accumulated day by day. Now there is a ranger who can help them.
Teach these evil servants a lesson without taking any risks yourself. Everyone will be happy to see such a good thing.
Seeing his servants fall to the ground one after another, and those who were barely standing were scared out of their wits by that bastard ranger, Wang Zhao was furious. At this moment, he had already lost his mind, his chest was rising and falling violently, and his shoulders were shaking slightly.
Trembling, he finally pulled out a crossbow from the saddle bag and shot an arrow towards Nan Jiyun.
After cleaning up these evil servants, Nan Jiyun didn't want to bother too much. He turned around and was about to leave when he felt a pain in his shoulder. He turned around angrily and saw Wang Zhaozheng holding a military short crossbow and looking at him with a sneer.
Nan Jiyun was instantly furious. From the look in Wang Zhao's eyes, Nan Jiyun could see that Wang Zhao had murderous intentions. As for why the crossbow arrow did not hit his vest but his shoulder, I'm afraid it could only be explained by his poor shooting skills.
Explained. Although this kind of military short crossbow has a short range, it can definitely kill someone within twenty steps. The folk customs in the prosperous Tang Dynasty were open, and swords, bows and arrows were always used among the people. Therefore, even literati would wear them.
A long sword to show that he is not a weak scholar. However, the imperial court has always strictly prohibited the use of this kind of military crossbow by the people. How dare Wang Zhao dare to steal the military crossbow?
Knowing that the matter could not be resolved, Nan Jiyun was about to get angry when he heard a slightly lazy voice coming from behind: "Is this Mr. Wang Zhaowang? I wonder if you can hear what Li said?
"
Facing everyone's surprised looks, Li Kuo squeezed out half of the crowd and asked breathlessly.
Wang Zhao was impatient when he heard this man's disrespectful words. He waved his hand and shouted: "If you fart, just let it go. Don't hinder me from doing my work."
However, Li Kuo was not annoyed by this and said with a smile: "I am humble, I wonder if the crossbow arrows held by the prince are military items?"
Wang Zhao didn't even think about it and asked impatiently: "So what? Do you still want to go to Jingzhao Yin Yamen to accuse me of hiding weapons?"
These words were very arrogant, causing a burst of discussion among the people around him, and even more people lamented the deep influence of the Wang family in Chang'an City.
Li Kuo raised his lips slightly, raised his hands towards the north of the city, and said: "I dare not touch the prince's tiger beard, but if Yang Zhao and Yang Shilang knew about this, he was impeaching a saint for the crime of lax godliness of his son.
I’m afraid Prince Wang won’t feel well then.”
Hearing this, Wang Zhao, who had previously been full of disdain, turned pale in an instant.
Note 1: Nan Jiyun: A famous ranger during the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty. He later served under Zhang Xun and died heroically in the battle to defend Suiyang City.
Note 2: We have to admit that the purchasing power of Tongbao was extremely strong during the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty. Although it depreciated slightly during the Tianbao period, it was still considerable.
Another note: In the Tang Dynasty, one foot equaled 30.7cm today, and 6 feet equaled 1.84 meters. It was very majestic, right?
