Red Mansion: Bastards rule the roost

Chapter 462: Ingenious Trial and Test
Yang Siniang nodded and said: "What sister said makes sense, how can I try it?"

Holy Mother White Lotus glanced at her and said with a smile: "If it turns out that he is a ghost, Fourth Mother will be missing a good husband."

Yang Siniang blushed and said angrily: "Sister, what are you talking about? Could it be that Siniang can't get married? There are so many good men in the rebel army, who is he?"

Holy Mother White Lotus smiled and said: "In my opinion, in terms of martial arts, I'm afraid no one in the rebel army can match him."

Yang Siniang sneered: "So what if he has all his kung fu? Didn't my sister see through it at a glance?"

Holy Mother White Lotus shook her head and said: "It's too early to say that it's too early to tell. In short, it's a human or a ghost. You'll know it once you try it."

Yang Siniang said: "Sister, do you have any clever ideas?"

The Holy Mother of White Lotus whispered a few words in her ear.

Yang Siniang was secretly frightened. If this was the case, the little thief would probably be fooled. Although she was anxious, she did not dare to show it on her face. Instead, she smiled and nodded: "Sister, with her clever calculations, is better than Kong Ming."

The Holy Mother of White Lotus said: "It's just a small trick, as long as my sister doesn't blame me for ruining your marriage, it will be fine."

"It's too late for me to thank my sister, so how can I blame you? If this thief is a spy, I will definitely take his head off with my own hands." Yang Siniang said bitterly.

"This is easy. Sister, please wait a moment. I will make arrangements myself." Our Lady of White Lotus smiled and said, "Come, hurry up and invite all the heads back. Just say that I have something to say."

"Okay, sister, I have something to do. I don't have anything to worry about. I'll go to the back to rest first." Yang Siniang cupped her hands and turned around to go in.

There was an unfathomable meaning in the eyes of the Holy Mother White Lotus. She waved to the disciples and whispered a few instructions.

Yang Siniang returned to the back room and sat down. She could no longer suppress the panic in her heart. She felt that her heart was almost jumping out of her chest. She was anxious and afraid. What should I do? This little thief is in trouble!

I was in chaos for a while, and I couldn't think of any good solution in my hurry.

No, you have to send someone to inform him first, lest he be fooled and die unjustly. Just when Yang Siniang was about to call someone, suddenly a light flashed in her mind, no, no!

Bai Lian has always been cautious and mysterious, and never reveals what is on her mind easily. Why did she reveal such a big thing to me today?
Logically speaking, she didn't have to tell me how to test the thief, so why did she tell me?
Yes! She is cheating on both ends! She must have suspected that Jia Cong was colluding with me and deliberately leaked this plan to me. As long as I sent someone to contact him at this moment, it would be tantamount to exposing myself.

What if we don't send someone to notify Jia Cong? Although this plan is simple, it is very easy for people to be fooled. What should we do?
Yang Siniang thought hard for a long time, and when she thought that Jia Cong would be killed, murderous intent suddenly arose in her heart. She threw all her loyalty aside and shouted: "Third Aunt, Third Uncle!"

A middle-aged couple walked in and asked, "Siniang, what's going on?" They were Yang Siniang's biological uncles and aunts. They had always been loyal to Yang Dadao, and they were also the most powerful supporters in helping her rise to power. They were trustworthy.

They are also the ones who are most opposed to Yang Siniang marrying Hu Bao. If Heifeng Village is let Hu Bao take charge, what benefits will they, the old Yang family, have?
Yang Siniang said decisively: "Third uncle and third aunt, I will tell you the truth, rebellion is a dead end. For the sake of the future of my brothers, I am determined to accept the court's recruitment!"

"You... Si Niang, where do you start talking about this? When did the court recruit us?" Yang Laosan asked in shock.

"The imperial court sent its own emissary to talk to me. You don't need to worry about this matter, now is a good opportunity to make a contribution!
You go quickly and summon two hundred skilled brothers to come to the Yamen.

Later, the Holy Mother of White Lotus will convene all the heads to discuss matters. They only listened to me throwing a cup as a signal, so they all went out together and killed all these bandit leaders. It was a great achievement! Yang Siniang said sharply.

Yang Laosan and his wife swallowed their saliva. The rebellion was too fierce. They hesitated and said: "Sister, if the court uses deception to make us kill each other..."

Yang Siniang said quickly: "Third uncle, third aunt, could it be that Siniang would push the brothers into the fire pit?

I am very sure about this matter, and the story of it is hard to describe in words. Now it is extremely urgent, so I just ask you to believe me once.
Even if the imperial court deceives us, and we resort to ruthless tactics to get rid of these thieves and eat their men, horses, money and food, we will still make a profit without losing anything. What’s more, Hu Bao’s rebellious intentions are obvious. If we don’t get rid of him now, how can we wait for him to get rid of us? ? "

Yang Laosan was also a ruthless character. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "Okay! I'll call someone right away."

"Everyone needs a reliable brother."

"That's natural."

"By the way, don't go through the back door, just go through the front door openly so as not to arouse suspicion. When others ask, just say I need to employ people." Yang Siniang said.

Yang Laosan smiled and said: "Don't worry, Fourth Mother, Third Uncle is not a young boy."

After Yang Siniang explained the matter, she took a deep breath, calmed down her excitement, and went over the matter in her mind.

Although Bai Lian is deeply scheming, she will be suspicious now, and she must not have expected that I am determined to die. No matter how resourceful she is, she cannot stop my sword. I will kill her first, and then others.

Yang Siniang made up her mind and went out to the main hall. She saw that all the heads of the family had returned and were discussing in low voices.

Seeing her coming out, Holy Mother White Lotus smiled and said: "Sixth Mother is here. I just heard that you sent someone out to call for someone, but why?"

Yang Siniang's face was full of murderous intent and she sneered: "I told you, if Hu Fei is a ghost, I will definitely take his head with my own hands.

This bastard dares to take advantage of me. If I don't kill him, I can't get rid of the hatred in my heart. This kid has extraordinary martial arts skills, so call a few more people to prepare for any eventuality. "

Li Laohu said with a smile: "Master Yang is worrying too much. With the brothers behind us, are we afraid that we won't be able to defeat him?"

Yang Siniang muttered: "You have seen Hu Fei's martial arts. It's not difficult to kill him. I'm afraid a lot of us will have to die too.

When the time comes, I'm afraid you may not be willing to risk your lives to move forward, so it's better to worry about your own family. "

Everyone is a little embarrassed, which is true. Although they can kill him, everyone belongs to different factions. Who would be willing to sacrifice himself to fulfill the reputation of others?
With Hu Fei's sword skills, how could he fight back with all his strength without pulling down ten or twenty people on his back? Who wants to be the backup?

Holy Mother White Lotus nodded and said, "Sister Four is still thoughtful."

No matter how cunning she was, she never thought that in the blink of an eye, Yang Siniang, who was fighting side by side yesterday, would have a murderous intention and wanted to kill them all on the spot.

He Tieniu frowned and said, "Why does the Holy Mother doubt Brother Hu?"

Jia Cong was his now, but he didn't want to see his powerful general taken advantage of to get rid of him.

The Holy Mother of White Lotus said: "I have no credentials. If Hu Fei dares to attend the meeting calmly, I will believe him 80%. If he dares not to do it, he has a ghost in his heart, so why use the credentials?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"How can it be only 100%?" Wang Miao asked.

"I'll let the master lend him the sword later. If he lends it generously, I'll be 100% convinced." said the Holy Mother of White Lotus.

Everyone nodded. If they could do this, they would be aboveboard.

He Tieniu frowned and said: "This is too harsh. Many wealthy people in the world love weapons more than their lives. We have made such a formation and want to lend him his weapons. I would like to ask all the leaders here, will you borrow them?"

Everyone was silent, only a fool would borrow it. Without weapons, wouldn't you be at the mercy of others?

Our Lady of White Lotus said: "This matter involves the lives of all the heads of the family, so please do not be too careful. I hope that the head of the house will forgive me."

Everyone said: "That's right. If Hu Fei is a ghost, we will all die without a burial place. We must not ignore it."

Regardless of whether Hu Fei is a human or a ghost, it is always a good thing if he can take the opportunity to eliminate potential competitors.

Yang Siniang also nodded and said: "This method is very good."

He Tieniu had no choice but to hold his nose and admit it. Jia Cong returned to the courtyard with Cheng Lingsu and Liu Xianglian, closed the door and discussed today's affairs.

"Mother Bai Lian doubts me," Jia Cong said.

Liu Xianglian pondered for a moment and said: "Brother Hu's body worth thousands of dollars is not suitable for standing in a dangerous place for a long time. It is better to retreat first to avoid any mistakes."

Jia Cong shook his head slightly: "If I disappear, it will be like asking for trouble, and all the previous plans will come to nothing. I think Bai Lian is just a little suspicious, and there is no evidence."

Liu Xianglian frowned and said, "If you're not afraid of ten thousand, you're afraid of the worst. If this road doesn't work, let's find another way. Will we still be unable to suppress these thieves?"

Jia Cong said: "Encircling and annihilating them in Qufu is the best way. Otherwise, there will be no chance to gather and annihilate them. The people of Shandong do not know how much suffering they will suffer."

"But Brother Hu is carrying a lot of weight, and he must not make any mistakes. Otherwise, how can I have the dignity to stand in this world?" Liu Xianglian said.

"It doesn't matter, I..."

Before Jia Cong could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the doorbell.

"Masters, please ask Brother Hu to go back to discuss matters." Someone knocked on the door.

The three of them stood up with solemn expressions. They dispersed and called back again. What do you mean?
Jia Cong motioned to open the door.

When Liu Xianglian went over and opened the door, she almost couldn't help but draw her sword. She saw dozens of fierce thieves holding swords at the door, looking at Jia Cong with evil intentions. Each of them had a white lotus embroidered on their left chest.

This is not an invitation, it is clearly an escort.

Jia Cong came out, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Brothers, what do you have to say to the masters?"

The leader said: "I don't know this. I just ask Brother Hu to go with us."

Jia Congyi, an expert, was bold and said with a smile: "Then let's go."

Liu Xianglian and Cheng Lingsu were about to follow Jia Cong out, but they were stopped by the man and said: "The leaders only ask Brother Hu to go, so there is no need for you two to go."

Liu Xianglian frowned and said, "Why is this? My brothers have always advanced and retreated together. What do the leaders mean?"

Jia Cong raised his hand and said, "Brother Liu and Lingsu are just waiting for me in the yard. Let's have a few drinks when we come back later."

He has absolute confidence in his sword and sword skills. Even if he encounters any problems, the terrain in the city is complicated. If he can't fight and escape, he should be able to escape, not to mention that Siniang is there.

Liu Xianglian nodded helplessly, knowing that Jia Cong was hinting that she should not act rashly, so she had no choice but to agree.

Jia Cong was escorted to the county government hall by a group of people. When he saw the hall was filled with gloom and solemnity, and everyone looked at him with sinister expressions, he felt slightly relieved. Are you trying to scare me like this?

If you are really sure, why do you do this? Wouldn't it be over if I were simply captured and killed?

Grass bandits are grass bandits, haha, in terms of intelligence, there is a huge gap between them and Fatty Feng.

If I hadn't read the story of Meng De offering his sword, I would have been frightened by you.

"What orders do you have for me to call my younger brother?" Jia Cong said without fear, cupping his hands.

Li Laohu, the head of Feihu Village, said in a gloomy tone: "Brother Hu, people in the Ming Dynasty do not speak secretly. What do you want to do by coaxing us to attack Qufu together?

Do you really think that we are all just living for a living? For the sake of brothers, if you are honest, I will give you a happy life. If you refuse to admit it until death, don't blame the brothers for offending. "

Jia Cong sneered and said: "What do you mean by this? All the heads of the family, someone came to seek refuge. Not to mention credit, you have worked hard at least. Why did you suddenly become a rebel?
The leaders of the country decide whether to attack Qufu or not. What does that have to do with my subordinates? What a joke!

I came here sincerely, but within a few days, I turned into a rebel inexplicably. If any leader can produce evidence, I am willing to kill myself to apologize. If I can't produce it, will I, Hu Fei, be considered a person who can be bullied?

Hehe, if you piss me off and take action, how many of you can survive in this room? "

Everyone was shocked when they heard the murderous intent in his words as cold and sharp as an ice knife, and some regretted not calling more people in.

It was impossible to call someone at this moment, lest it would be fine, but the unnecessary action would only stimulate him to go crazy.

Yang Siniang sneered and said: "You little thief, you are still making excuses at this point. You are tricking me into going to Qufu. Who will believe you if you say that there is nothing fancy? Do you think I am a three-year-old child?"

Everyone sneered in agreement.

Jia Cong felt reassured, but he heard something else.

No one noticed that with "Hu Fei"'s rough appearance, the word "little thief" was inappropriate for him.

I just thought it was Yang Siniang's habitual wording, but I didn't know that this title was a common word for flirting between her and Jia Cong when they were intimate.

Even though he said it in a different tone, Jia Cong didn't understand. It was obvious that Yang Siniang was implying that she was fine.

Yin smiled and said: "I only have some flirtations with Master Yang, and I don't care about other things!"

"Thieves, you are seeking death!" Yang Siniang pointed her halberd and said angrily.

Jia Cong said: "The feelings below are true and not false. Please be aware of this."

Everyone was unaware that the word "slut" was also a secret nickname for the two of them.

Although Holy Mother White Lotus found it a bit strange, Hu Fei's words were not enough to be considered a thief. She just thought that Yang Siniang blurted out in anger.

Who knew that the two of them had secretly communicated in front of everyone.

Eight Thousand Years Old said: "I am a strong-willed brother, so of course I can trust him. As for Brother Hu's martial arts, who among us doesn't admire him?"

"The boss deserves the reward." Jia Cong said calmly.

"I have been longing for Brother Hu's sword for a long time. I wonder if I can have the pleasure to take a look at it?" Baqian Sui said.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Jia Cong.

But when Jia Cong laughed loudly, his voice shook the roof tiles, and he said, "You guys can't trust me after all. Anyway, since you want to see my sword, just show it."

What you are doing has chilled the hearts of heroes all over the world. "As he spoke, he took off the knife from his back and threw it to Yaqian Sui with a wave of his hand.

Eight thousand years old took it in astonishment. This boy really dared to borrow the knife.

Everyone was a little unbelievable. Hu Fei was really a fucking man. If he was a spy, he could do this?
He Tieniu laughed, stood up, hugged Jia Cong, and said, "I told you that my brother is a good man. They didn't believe me. They wanted to try you. I, Lao Niu, really saw the right guy."

Jia Cong showed a look of "surprise, sorrow and anger" and sneered: "So that's it, since you leaders can't trust Hu, just leave. If I don't stay here, I have my own place to stay! Farewell!" After that, he left. .
