Do you know: I am Xu Jiazi

Chapter 525: Get him! [Thank you! Goodbye! I owe you 44k more]

Walking through the still noisy corridor,
Xu Zaijing returned to the private room.
Just turned the screen,
Qi Heng stood up suddenly from the chair, holding the table with one hand. After steadying his body, he staggered to the side quickly.

Qi Heng covered his mouth with his hands as he walked.

"No! Bring in the bucket."

When Xu Zaijing shouted outside the screen, Qi Heng had already begun to lose his balance.

Xu Zaijing held Qi Heng, the door of the private room was opened, and Buwei walked over quickly carrying a wooden barrel.

"Uh"

Qi Heng bent down, his mouth slightly open, looking as if he was in pain from holding his breath.

Xu Zaijing supported Qi Heng, patted his back helplessly, glanced at the table, and saw Zai Zhang, Chang Bai and Gu Tingye were all "meditating with their eyes closed".

"Ugh."

Smelling the scent, Xu Zaijing raised his eyebrows slightly.

Having seen a lot on the battlefield, Xu Zaijing didn't feel uncomfortable with this feeling.

"Cough cough!" Hearing Qi Heng's cough due to choking, Xu Zaijing patted his back again.

"I've only been out for a short while, what are you guys doing?"

Listening to Xu Zaijing's words, as if affected by the taste created by Qi Heng, Changbai and Gu Tingye also began to frown slightly.

"Hanniu, Zhique, go and open the window a crack to get some fresh air."

Xu Zaijing shouted.

Changbai and Gu Tingye's servant hurried to the window facing the street.

"Erlang, from now on I will never compete in drinking with you again!" Changbai leaned back in his chair and said with a frown.

Qi Heng held Xu Zaijing's arm and stood up. His throat tightened again and he bent down again.

"vomit"

"Brother, how much have you three drunk in such a short while?" Xu Zaijing asked.

"Not much, just one small jar for three people! Happy!" Zai Zhang waved his hand.

Hearing this, Xu Zaijing shook his head helplessly.

"Drink~"

Chang Feng, who was not far away, closed his eyes, waved his hands and shouted.

Chai family,

At the second gate,
Fu Yi, wearing a thick cloak and holding a lantern, stood at the door and handed the pair of cards in her hand to the gatekeeper.

After a while,
"It has been checked and confirmed. Please come in, Miss Fuyi."

Mammy said as she opened the door.

"Thank you, mama."

After saying that, Fu Yi carried the lantern and walked into the backyard.

In the Qiusheng Garden,

Only a candle was lit in the room facing the stove.

quickly,

Fu Yi appeared holding a lantern.

She walked into the main room with a chill on her body, blew out the lantern, looked at Yunmu who came out, and said, "Sister, is the girl asleep?"

Yunmu, who was holding the candlestick, shook his head: "The girl just lay down and hasn't fallen asleep yet, come in quickly."

Fu Yi and Yun Mu went into the inner room together.
In the room that exuded a light and elegant fragrance, Chai Zhengzheng, who was wearing pajamas, sat on the bed and asked softly, "Have my cousins ​​and the others gone home?"

"Yes girl! That's it."

"Hmm? If you have something to say, just say it."

"Yes, young lady. From the way the young masters walked, it seemed that they were drunk! The young master needed the support of Xu Jiawulang and the servant to stand steadily."

Hearing this, Chai Zhengzheng frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Did Xu Jia Wulang drink too much?"

Fu Yi shook her head: "No. The two young masters of the Xu family look okay!"

"Oh! What a jerk my cousin is!"

Chai Zhengzheng said in a relaxed tone,

After saying that, Chai Zhengzheng moved towards the bed, lowered the bed curtain and said, "Okay, let's all go back to sleep."

Xingguofang,
Gu Tingye supported Zhique's hand.

He walked into the backyard of Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion with steady steps.

Not far away, at the gate of the Duke of Qi's Mansion,
By the light of the lanterns lit by the Qi family,

Xu Zaijing put his hand on Qi Heng's armpit and helped him down from the carriage.

Handing Qi Heng to Buwei who was standing beside the carriage, Xu Zaijing said, "Buwei, please apologize to the princess and me for not going in to bother us so late at night."

"Yes, Fifth Young Master!"

Buwei supported Qi Heng and nodded.

Looking at the Qi family's doorman who was walking towards them quickly with a lantern and helping Buwei to support Qi Heng, Xu Zaijing turned and walked towards his own carriage.

Inner Courtyard of Duke Qi's Mansion,

In Qi Heng's bedroom,
"Well"

"gosh"

"uncomfortable"

Princess Pingning, who was wearing her winter clothes, looked at Qi Heng, who was tossing and turning on the bed and talking nonsense. She frowned and whispered, "How did you take care of your son? Why did he drink so much?"

Bu Wei, who was standing aside, bowed his head and said, "My Lady, it was my negligence."

Duke Qi on the side whispered to Buwei: "Alright, you go out first."

"Yes, Lord Guo."

After bowing, he left the house.

Princess Pingning also sat down beside the bed, holding Qi Heng's hand, frowning and saying, "Why is this hangover soup so slow to come out? Go and hurry it up!"

At the door, Princess Pingning's personal nanny bowed and walked out.

Duke Qi walked to the bedside, looked at Qi Heng, who opened his eyes slightly and looked at him with an uncomfortable expression, and said with a smile: "Heng'er, will you drink like this in the future?"

Qi Heng lay on Princess Pingning's lap and said with a sigh, "Father, I won't drink anymore. I won't drink anymore!"

Seeing this, Duke Qi smiled and said, "Then you must remember what you said tonight."

"It's uncomfortable. I won't drink it again."

Quyuan Street,
Yong Yi Hou Mansion,

Xu Zaijing's courtyard,
There was a candlelight in the main room.

outside the house,

The light from the moon and stars dimly illuminated the roof ridge and cast a shadow on the ground by the grape trellis.

A woman walked towards the main house in the moonlight.

Indoor study room,

Xu Zaijing, who had already showered and changed his clothes,
He leaned back in his chair, holding a cup of warm hangover soup in his hand, drinking it in small sips.

The maid Qingcao behind Xu Zaijing was wiping his long, shiny black hair.

"Yun Xiang, bring the carbon box over here."

"Hey."

Soon Yun Xiang came over, holding a rectangular copper box with a handle about the length of his forearm, filled with red-hot charcoal and covered with tiny holes.

The copper box was also heated and emitted high temperature.

When the two maids were about to "dry" Xu Zaijing's hair, Madam Xia from the courtyard stood at the door and said, "Sir, Qingyun's message just came in from the second gate, saying that Sanlang will stay at Sheng's house tonight."

Xu Zaijing was stunned: "Brother went to see Changbai and Changfeng off, why did he leave me there?"

"It is said that Sanlang was blown by the cold wind on the way. When he arrived at Sheng's house, he was a little drunk and vomited. Then Madam Wang forced him to stay at Sheng's house."

Xu Zaijing sighed and asked, "Have you told mother and second sister-in-law?"

"My Lord, a maid has gone to pass on the message." Xu Zaijing nodded: "That's good."

Just as he was about to shake his head, Qingcao behind Xu Zaijing said, "Sir, don't move. Be careful not to burn your hair."

"Ah."

Continuing to close his eyes and enjoy the grass combing his hair with a dry and hot comb, Xu Zaijing asked: "When will you little maids gather together for a feast?"

Qingcao kept moving, and after exchanging a glance with Hua Xiangyun, he said, "Sir, the date is the 18th, at Huixian Restaurant."

"Wow, you guys are really good at choosing places. Your son has never been to the Immortal Restaurant many times."

Hearing this, Qingcao and the other three maids laughed.

"When we went there that day, we brought back some food in a lunch box for you to try!"

"Yes! By the way, when you go that day, bring Chu Zhan, Alan and Xunshu with you, and the money you spend will be deducted from your small treasury."

"what?"

When they heard about spending money, the three girls widened their eyes in unison, and after hesitating for a moment, they said in unison, "Yes, sir."

"Ah."

On the second day,
Early Mao time (5 a.m.)
Xu Zaijing got up half an hour later than usual.
Because Qingyun didn't have to go to school, Xu Zaijing gave him a whole day off before he followed Zai Zhang to see someone off downstairs of Yang Building yesterday.

Xu Zaijing dressed his horse himself early this morning and asked Alan to help him put on the armor. Then he hung six pots of more than a hundred feather arrows on his horse and rode and shot arrows on the racecourse.

Amid the rumbling of horse hooves,

Soon, many of the Marquis's personal soldiers gathered around the racecourse to watch.

Most of the personal soldiers around Xu Minghua, such as Di Jing, Ye Fang, Feng Dabao and others, except those who died in the battle, have been promoted to lieutenant colonel in the army based on their military exploits after the previous battle of Baigao.

Most of the personal soldiers watching on the sidelines now were newly selected to serve Xu Minghua.

In the dim light of early morning, I watched the little black colt carrying Xu Zaijing running wildly on the racecourse like a wild beast.

Every time Xu Zaijing passed by these soldiers,

There was the sound of people drawing their bows and shooting.

From time to time, the sound of "thump thump" could be heard from the target in the distance.

"Beep beep beep"

There was another sound of horse hooves in front of me.

Someone among the guards watching said:
"I heard that Di Jingdi commanded them. When he was under the Marquis, he sparred with Wu Lang every day!"

"Before, Wu Lang got up too early, so it was difficult for us to follow him! Now, should we give it a try?"

Everyone started talking.

At this time,

Xu Zaijing slowed down his horse and walked over.

"Sir, can we spar with you?"

Xu Zaijing, who was riding on a horse, smiled and said, "Of course you can, but you have to get past Alan, Xunshu, and Qingyun first, then you can learn from me."

Hearing this, the guards nodded eagerly.

The sky gradually brightens,

There is no Xu Zaijing in the racecourse,

There were only Alan and Xunshu riding their horses.

A huge archery target was also placed on one side of the wall.
Five or six personal soldiers of the marquis's mansion, who had finished their breakfast and were preparing to go to the racecourse to lift stone locks and hone their martial arts, came near the target.

One of them turned his head and his eyes could no longer leave the target.

Then, the soldier patted his companion in a daze and pointed at the target and said, "Look."

"What? Hiss!"

Seeing this, the other companions also looked in the direction the two were looking.

I saw the target on the wall was full of arrows.
Feathered arrows are not uncommon.
The main thing is that there are four rows of arrows hitting the target.
Four rows of feather arrows were neatly inserted on it, as if someone had measured them up and down, left and right with a ruler and then inserted them one by one.

The group of soldiers involuntarily walked towards the target.

As we approached,
Everyone looked up at the neatly arranged arrows, then turned back to look at the place in the distance where they had stood and talked with Xu Zaijing in the morning.

"Oh my God, what kind of archery is this!" muttered a soldier.

"No wonder Wu Lang was able to lead dozens of people and rely on the terrain to intercept nearly 10,000 people from Bai Gao."

Some of the personal soldiers didn't say anything, and it was unclear whether they were swallowing their saliva out of envy or fear.

"Were these shot by horseback archery? I can't hit so many bullets even if I shoot while standing still."

At this time,

There was the sound of horse hooves coming from the direction of the gate.

Soon a carriage drove to the racecourse.
Zai Zhang, who stayed at Sheng's house last night, got out of the car.

Alan, who rode over, bowed and said, "Greetings, Third Young Master."

Zai Zhang looked into the distance and nodded, "Alan, what are those soldiers in the Marquis' Mansion looking at?"

"My Lord, he should be looking at the target."

Zai Zhang nodded as he warmed up. "It just so happens that I didn't do much exercise after having breakfast at the Sheng family today. I'll pick a horse, put on the saddle, and run around the horse farm a few times."

"Yes, Third Young Master."

When Zai Zhang was running in circles, he saw more and more personal soldiers near the target, so he rode over to take a look.

quickly,

Zai Zhang shook his head and left the target, breathing out white air all the way in the winter morning.

When he dismounted, Yin Bo came out of the wooden house, looked at the soldiers in the distance and shouted, "If you are all right, please help pull out all the arrows!"

Xijin Prefecture,
Northern Liao Palace,

In the palace where the temperature is just right with the fire burning in the ground,

Yelu Ying, with a headband and a grim look on his face, weakly handed the letter from the government to his younger brother beside him.

"Sister, what's written in it?"

Yelu Falcon took the letter and asked.

Yelu Ying shook his head and said nothing.

After Yelu Sun opened the letter, he looked at the first few sentences and frowned unhappily.

Without reading any more, Yelu Falcon closed the letter in frustration, sat on the dragon chair and pondered for a moment, then said, "Why is Xu Wulang always involved in every bad thing? He is really the calamity star of our Liao!"

"Sister, I think we should do as Maitreya's first disciple said and deal with Xu Wulang in Bianjing!"

Yelu Ying frowned and shook his head, saying, "It might have been feasible before. We could have transferred a dozen experts from the north of the Yellow River! But now, where can we find the manpower?"

Beizhou affairs,

Yelu Ying's decision almost exhausted the arrangements made by the two major government offices of Bei Liao, Zhuangfotai and Liushoufu, which had been in place for more than ten years.

It is a small matter to make full use of the arrangements; the key is that the plan has not been achieved!
Moreover, apart from increasing the merits of Xu Zaijing and others as well as the various armies of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the destructive effect was minimal, especially the damage to Beizhou’s military supplies was only one ten-thousandth.

This action is a perfect example of trying to steal a chicken but ending up losing the rice.

Some time ago,

Yelu Ying, who had heard that Beizhou had closed its gates and was waiting for good news in the palace,
After receiving the news that Beizhou was wiped out within three days, he vomited and fainted after confirming it repeatedly.

Ever since Yelu Ying returned to Northern Liao, she has been overcoming many difficulties over the years, but has never suffered such a big loss!

"Sister, didn't Maitreya's first disciple ask the secret agents in Bianjing to send a group of soldiers into Bianjing?"

"By some strange coincidence, these people entered Bian Jing and were not affected by this incident!"

Yelu Falcon continued.

Yelu Ying frowned and shook his head: "No! If something goes wrong, people will follow the clues and implicate Maitreya's first disciple, delaying future events. That would be more trouble than gain!"

"Sister, how do you know that if you don't deal with Xu Wulang, your future plans won't be affected by him?"

Listening to his brother's question, Yelu Ying did not answer.

"Sister, I heard that there was heavy snow in Bianjing for several days before, and Xu Wulang killed more than a dozen thieves in Wuyou Cave. Can't we use this to make a plan? All we have to do is pay!"
