Chapter five hundred and sixty-eight dragon and tiger fight beside the drum table

Looking at the big drum set in the center of the empty square in front of the palace gate, the little monkey couldn't help swallowing. He was a little nervous, who had always been fearless. But when he thought that Qingfeng Nian and Ling Zhu'er had covered him and left, the two of them were trapped in the Wude Department, and they might be treated like this. He immediately straightened his chest and felt that he was not afraid anymore.

Besides, when the sky collapses, there is a tall man holding him over. Yue Qianqiu dares to bring him here, so why don’t he dare to beat the drum?

However, he had been standing for a while, but he didn't see Yue Qianqiu going up, or ordered himself to go up. He found that Yue Qianqiu's eyes were always staring at the patrolling guards in the square. He couldn't help but be a little surprised. After thinking about it, he asked cleverly: "Brother Yue Jiu, are you worried that the patrolling soldiers will find us? If that's the case, I'll just lead the people away in a while!"

"Haha." Yue Qianqiu smiled, then glanced at the little monkey sideways, but answered the question irrelevantly, "Do you know, what is Dengwen Drum for?"

The little monkey used to live in a remote countryside. Although he learned a lot after arriving in Jinling, he had not been involved in this. Today, this is the first time I heard of this term, and now I honestly shook my head.

Yue Qianqiu's reaction to him was naturally expected. He shrugged and said, "This drum is said to have originated from the time of Yao and Shun. It was used to make people speak out directly and make unjustly. Whether it was the Zhou Dynasty, the Wei, Jin and Sui Dynasty, they all set up such drums. Of course, the names are different, but as long as the people feel that there is an injustice, they can beat them. As for the time being in this dynasty..."

The little monkey suddenly realized when he heard this. Before Yue Qianqiu finished speaking, he slapped his hands and said, "I understand. This is the same as the drums in front of the yamen. It turns out that they are all complaining to others!"

"Well, the reason is similar. You use beating drums to make trouble, but think about it, can the drums in front of the county government office be beaten casually? Without the nods of those servants, you may not even be able to touch the drums that complain, right? And if you beat drums and complain about trivial matters, will you turn back and get dozens of big boards for teasing Shangguan?"

Seeing the little monkey immediately showed a thoughtful expression, Yue Qianqiu said meaningfully, "So, of course, this drum is not beaten casually. The system of this dynasty is much more rigorous than in the past dynasties. Unless it is a major military and national event, such as the enemy's besiege, or important figures, such as the prince's death, you cannot beat the drum casually."

The little monkey was suddenly disappointed: "Then if I knock it, so what?"

"Did you see those soldiers? They are called drum guards. If you want to beat the drum, they will stop you and ask what you want to tell me. If it is not a big deal, they will not let you in, and they will beat you out with sticks. Of course, with your and my skills, if you really want to break in and beat the drum, they will not be able to stop them. But if you insist on beating the drum, will you be guilty afterwards?"

When he learned that there were so many restrictions on beating the Dengwen drum, the little monkey frowned. He glanced at the Snow White beneath him, swept the empty streets left and right, and suddenly asked in confusion: "Brother Yue Jiu, it's dark. We rode a horse here together, so conspicuous that it was no longer conspicuous. Why do those drum guards ignore us?"

"Because I am a three-point land in front of the palace, at least I am a celebrity, no one thinks I will beat the drum. Just like what others advised me just now, I have a palace family. Although I asked to see the emperor a little bit arrogant, as long as I swear and say good things and get bribes, I may not be unable to enter the palace."

Yue Qianqiu smiled at the little monkey, then showed his little white teeth and said, "But today, I just want to go out and make a big fuss!"

Although the little monkey is an amateur in fighting and an expert in escaping, because Qingfeng Nian and Ling Zhu'er were captured by Wudesi, he was holding his breath in his heart. He can really be called a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. He rolled his sleeves without thinking and said viciously: "Brother Yue Jiu, tell me, I will do whatever you say today, and I will never retreat!"

"I knew you were the most reliable." Yue Qianqiu nodded to the little monkey with a smile, and then said calmly, "You are here to help me watch Snow White. I'll go over, remember, if I don't call you, just stay here and ask you to come over again. Also, stare at me. As long as someone suspected of Chen Zheng appears, you will immediately shout and warn you, and then lean over, don't fight with him!"

When the little monkey saw Yue Qianqiu coming on his own, he felt very regretful, but he didn't start fighting. He just nodded vigorously, then watched Yue Qianqiu jump off his horse and walked towards the drum platform. Sure enough, when Yue Qianqiu was about ten steps away from the drum platform, he saw several drum guards surrounding him and politely block Yue Qianqiu.

Although he wanted to go over and help, he remembered Yue Qianqiu's words. Since the person didn't call him, he rode his horse and stayed there, clenching his fists anxiously, and he didn't even have to worry about sweating all over his palms. Seeing that the negotiation had lasted for a long time, Yue Qianqiu was still blocked there. He was like a fire, and he took two steps without realizing it, and then stopped again.

He was so anxious that he even learned to Yue Qianqiu and unconsciously stroked Ma's neck and said, "I just hope Brother Yue Jiu is faster, otherwise if there is something wrong with Senior Brother Qing and Senior Sister Ling, I... how can I be worthy of them!"

Although Yue Qianqiu was also worried about celebrating the prosperous years and Ling Zhu'er, he knew even more that he was too anxious at this moment. The reason why he said at the gate of Yue Mansion that he wanted to beat the drum was to make the wind sound to make Chen Zheng take the opportunity to attack. He wanted to bet, but Chen Zheng would definitely not sit still after hearing the news, and other opposition forces in the Wude Department would take the opportunity to counterattack.

As for whether to beat the drum or not, it is secondary when making a statement. What is important is this attitude!

Anyway, the Qing Dynasty was not like the Qing Dynasty exiled for three thousand miles. He had a very good reason to beat the drum. Some people planned to alienate the king and his ministers and frame the prime minister! So what if he really beat it?

Therefore, since he planned to delay time and wait for Chen Zheng to come, Yue Qianqiu was happy to argue with the patrol guards. Seeing that there were already a dozen guards coming over, two of them tried to persuade him like a head, and the rest were watching the fun outside curiously. He suddenly noticed a vivid bird cry, pretending to be impulsive, and shouted angrily.

"I'm not happy to disturb everyone at night, but it's unbearable! How could I know that Chen Zheng from Wude Department actually didn't like me, not only did he pick my stings in everything, but he wanted to kill me soon, but now those friends who are close to me are also targeted by him! Pei Xiang's family is on fire, and I don't know how many people saw it was his brother's concubine. Senior Brother Qing and others were just watching the fun nearby. This is also worth sending a large group of people in Wude Department to shout and kill?"

"If he politely invites someone back to speak, then that's fine, but what did he do? The archer surrounded the enemy and almost shot Junior Brother Yuan from the Iron Cavalry Club to death on the spot! Who is Junior Brother Yuan? He was a meritorious person who followed me to the Northern Yan mission. He dared to treat him like this. It was obviously to use this to vent his personal anger. It was not a ill-intentioned plan? You all get out of the way. I will make a decision tonight. I will take all the responsibility alone!"

The two who had just persuaded people had already understood what was going on. At this time, Yue Qianqiu's yell, the two of them suddenly had a small commotion when they saw the subordinates around them. How could they not understand that Yue Qianqiu was trying to make things big? Therefore, since Yue Qianqiu said the words of one person doing things and one person being the one being the one, the two looked at each other and gave up the path.

Yue Qianqiu bowed to the crowd and immediately strode towards the drum platform from the way out. Just as he rushed up and reached for the drumsticks, he heard another sharp bird cry.

At that time, he picked up the drumstick in his hand, then turned his head and looked towards the little monkey, but saw someone riding Snow White toward this side. A dozen riders chased behind him at lightning. Who else was the leader who was not Shen Zheng with a frightened and angry face?

Looking at the black cloaks that were rushing in the wind among the Wudesi, and looking at Shen Zheng who was taking the lead, his expression was so eager to swallow him. Yue Qianqiu grinned sarcastically, then raised the drumsticks and knocked heavily on the drum surface. Just as the dull sound suddenly sounded, Shen Zheng's roar had already been heard.

"Yue Qianqiu, you dare!"

"Why don't I dare? Do you think I'm just scaring you?" Yue Qianqiu sneered, and the drumsticks had fallen heavily again. The dull sound instantly spread from the square. While beating the drum, he was not idle either. "I dare to do it, I dare to do it, what's there to be that you dare to do it? When I hit the drum, your plan will be made public to the world. Everyone knows that you have deliberately overturned Pei Xiang and want to frame my grandfather. Isn't this the end you should have?"

The little monkey who was riding his horse was about to dismount under the siege of a group of patrol guards, but when he heard Yue Qianqiu's second half of the words, he almost glared out his eyes. It turned out that the recent series of things that Mr. Pei had been framed by Shen Zheng, the Master of Wudeshi.

Not only the little monkey, but the others around him were also in an uproar. This is huge news. It turns out that Pei Xiang fell, but it was Shen Zheng, the Wudesi, who knew that he was making trouble behind the scenes. Now he still wants to involve the Prime Minister of the current dynasty?

Shen Zheng was almost irritated. He never expected that Yue Qianqiu would be so despicable and shameless. A basin of dirty water was poured down like this. He was so angry that he didn't care to refute. He flew off the horse and rushed towards Yue Qianqiu, just trying to kill this bold boy on the spot. However, what caught him off guard was that Yue Qianqiu, after increasing the speed, beat the drumsticks three times in a row, threw down the drumsticks and pulled open his throat and shouted: "Shen Zheng, don't think of killing people to silence me, I will fight with you!"

The four words "killing to silence" immediately touched the little monkey's sensitive nerve. When he thought of him almost being shot and killed, his eyes immediately turned red and he almost wanted to rush forward to help. But he only took one step forward and was pulled by two patrol guards. Not only that, a very light voice came from his ears.

"Young Master Ninth did it on purpose. If you go up, you will become a beating of the imperial officials. If you don't go up, Chen Zheng wants to kill you and silence him! Don't worry, if there are so many of us, you won't let the Ninth Master suffer if you really have something to do!"

Huh?

The little monkey looked at the sound in surprise and saw a young guard thrusting his eyes at him. He hesitated for a while and found that Yue Qianqiu and Shen Zheng were already in a ball, difficult to solve, and Chen Zheng's entourage was blocked by other patrol guards. There could only be one-on-one there, and his high heart was just slightly relieved.

Since there is no need to worry that Yue Qianqiu is in danger, his eyes rolled and he put his plans in his heart. After taking a deep breath, the little monkey was fully vented and shouted: "Where are you here, killing people, Wude Sichen knows that he is killing people in front of the palace gate!"

This kid finally helped him!

Yue Qianqiu was originally planning to call while fighting, but Chen Zheng was not easy to deal with. Without weapons, he almost tried his best to take down the attack like a crazy tiger. He really couldn't spare his time to yell. At this time, when Chen Zheng heard the little monkey's voice, his subordinates immediately stopped moving slightly. The pressure was reduced, he finally caught the loophole and immediately laughed.

"Chen Zheng, you can't stand me and even want to kill me for a long time. But you have the ability to do something openly, and you are a hero who is a hero who is secretly striking trouble again and again? I beat the drum, and I will bear the responsibility alone. If you don't have a ghost in your heart, why should you stop me? Ask yourself, are you a loyal minister or a traitor?"

From the moment he had just fought, Chen Zheng realized that he had fallen into a scheming. He was not an impulsive person, but because of his decades of ups and downs in officialdom, his sensitivity to the three words "Dengwengu" was naturally far ahead of his future.

Since he was anxious and had no turning back when he started work, he could only grit his teeth and think about taking down the kid first, forcing him to admit that it was a rumor and causing trouble. Who knew that another kid would throw a pot of dirty water into the head, and Yue Qianqiu became even more framed.

He took a deep breath and was completely angry for a moment. Almost instantly, his hands were swollen with a thick and large fingers, and the color was blue and black, as if they were the claws of the Nine Nether Demon God, and they drew out a sharp wind to grab Yue Qianqiu. What future, life, wealth... he left all behind, and the only thought left in his heart.

Kill this scourge... Even if he will be vented by the emperor and even executed, he will kill this scourge!

Without this life experience, it seems like a kid who is closely related to Beiyan, even if he dies, he is worth it! As long as Yue Qianqiu dies, the disputes in Dawu will be much less!

Yue Qianqiu naturally didn't expect Chen Zheng to go crazy suddenly. Fortunately, he had been listening to all directions and was always very cautious in fighting, so he immediately found something wrong. He had never been a person who was determined to kill someone. He immediately ran away and even played hide-and-seek with Shen Zheng around the drum platform.

However, seeing the figure chasing behind him, his hands like an eagle claw kept pulling down the solid wooden bricks. While he was still scared that he was not hit, the evil fire in his heart was burning more and more vigorously.

While Chen Zheng was rushing around the drum platform and was avoided by him, he suddenly took out a bag of things from his arms and smashed them at Chen Zheng's face. The things flew not far away, and the paper bag spread out, and it turned out to be a ball of powder.

"Eat me a piece of pepper!"

Almost the moment the thing flew over, Chen Zheng tore off his clothes without thinking and swung around him quickly. He had known about Yue Qianqiu's achievements as a child. At that time, a child who was not familiar with martial arts could knock down a Northern Yan spy detective with endless tricks. Once this kid who already knows martial arts uses those evil methods, if it is not pepper powder but poison powder, wouldn't it be a huge lethality?

For a moment, he didn't care about attacking, but just started to ventilate the clothes, and then quickly retreated. He not only ensured that the suspicious things were isolated, but also prevented Yue Qianqiu's sneak attack. But at this moment, he heard a sneer.

Chen Zheng subconsciously thought someone was attacking behind him, so he immediately waved the burqa back, but immediately he saw another pack of things coming silently. At that moment, he quickly breathed and stopped, even his eyes closed, and his whole body was waiting to retreat, but his ears keenly captured Yue Qianqiu's direction and movements, and immediately moved the burqa forward, trying to disperse the suspicious thing before continuing to attack.

But what he had closed his eyes and held his breath was that Yue Qianqiu had no intention of stopping at all. He threw two packets of powdery objects and then threw them out, and then it was nothing else, a ignited fire stick. With the crackling sound, Chen Zheng opened his eyes a crack, and saw sparks bursting around his eyes. He was shocked for a moment, and Yue Qianqiu's attention, which had been locking in his eyes, changed unconsciously.

The next moment, he paid the price because of his loss of consciousness. Because just a flash of thought, he felt a sharp pain in his lower back, and he took a heavy kick. Then, Yue Qianqiu's low voice came to his ears.

"Chen Zheng, let me tell you one thing. Although I like to use pepper powder and pepper flour, these things are too expensive after all. In addition, I was going to enter the palace tonight, so it would be disrespectful to bring these things, so I took a few packs of flour. Although the amount was not large, I wanted to create a big explosion, but it was still very easy to explode a few sparks and scare you."
