Today is the Zhongyuan Festival.

Zhongyuan Festival, commonly known as the Ghost Festival.

Legend has it that on this day, the Ghost King will open the gate of ghosts. The road between people and ghosts will be opened. The old ghost can take the opportunity to go home to receive sacrifices, while the new ghost will take this opportunity to return to the underworld.

On this day, most children set up a brazier in the corner of their doorstep to burn money and clothes. They will write down the hometown, address and name of the deceased before their death, and send the deceased to the deceased. They will burn candles and incense on the left and right to offer to all the unjust ghosts and wandering souls.

In previous years, these things were done by Pan. Now, she has remarried Yang Siqi and is not convenient to pay tribute to her husband as a vain. This mission was handed over to Li Yu.

The night is dark and the sky is not too late. If it is modern time, it is only around nine o'clock in the evening, and the bright moon is like clear frost.

Li Yu squatted on the ground in the shelter outside the newly built house, handing paper money into the brazier.

A breeze whirled, flames burned in the brazier, and ash undulated like a butterfly.

Although the deceased husband had no feelings, he was his father after all. Li Yu recited his name devoutly while placing paper money, and the flames reflected his face, and the lights flashed and dark.

Under the moonlight, a burly figure walked over, tall and strong, with a steady pace as if in a mountain. He held his ribs under his ribs without sheaths and could take action at any time.

This is Tie Wuhuan. He walked behind Li Yu and stopped moving and stood like a mountain.

Li Yu didn't move anyway, but he still put paper money into the basin piece by piece, watching the fire and the ashes...

Peng Mansion, Ji County.

After dinner, Peng Feng went to the ancestral hall to incense the ancestors, burned paper money and clothes, and then went back to his inner house.

Tonight, he was a little inexplicably excited.

That lord is too arrogant, why? I don’t take me seriously because I have the emperor’s will? I don’t look at this Ji County. Who is in this world? I want you to have different bodies and heads today! I heard that your wives are so charming and beautiful. I have taken the room and asked them to moan under my crotch every day...

The more Peng Feng thought about it, the more he gritted his teeth, and there were countless vicious thoughts in his mind.

The action is today, but he will not stand out. Not only did he not stand out, the entire Peng Mansion is peaceful, and most people don’t even know what action tonight.

Because, no matter what, Li Yu is holding a title of lord named by the emperor, and as long as he takes action, he will be rebellion. Even if the court does not want to make a big fuss about this, it must send a large army for the sake of the dignity of the dynasty and kill him forever.

So, he can't take action!

However, the horse thief Rock can defeat the enemy!

Tubo’s small business is OK Yongdan!

Moreover, if they killed Li Yu, it would be a serious bandit crisis and an invasion of foreign enemies. It was completely different from the nature of his attack and would not cause such a great shock to the court.

Tonight, Binhai Town and Zhehua Mountain will all flow into a river.

And he will be the great hero who quelled the rebellion in Ji County and the umbrella for the people of Ji County. He will lead troops to fight tomorrow, clean up the mess, and maintain peace in the area.

So beautiful!

Peng Feng thought about it and felt beautiful. At that time, would the emperor feel that this foreign household in Ji County could not gain a foothold, so he simply named him the baron of Ji County... or even the county duke of Minzhou?

The more Peng Feng thought about it, the blood was getting louder. He looked up and saw a string of red lights under the curved corridor. The winding paths were in the secluded place. It was a boudoir. Thinking of the beauty in that house, thinking that after tomorrow, the arrogance of the baron's wives and concubines would also become his playthings, Peng Feng suddenly felt his blood boiling.

The curtains are sparse and a thread of fragrance wafts.

The moon is as bright as day on the corridor and the lights in the room are bright.

Mi Yue sat in front of the dressing table, wearing a soft and close-fitting nightgown wrapped around her plump and graceful body, with concave and convex curves and gentle and smooth charm, showing a full femininity, and the mature female body curves looked extremely graceful.

In the mirror is a beautiful face that I feel pity for. I am only about thirty years old, but because of the proper maintenance, it looks like I am about twenty years old, charming and plump, like a blooming peony. Especially when she was just bathed, she is like a petal stained with dew. Few men can resist such temptation.

Looking at the watery eyes in the mirror, Mi Yue sighed softly.

She was born with beauty and was famous for her beauty since childhood. The matchmaker broke through the threshold of her family. Later, she was Xunxian by Sun Gan, a rich man in Ji County. Sun Gan was older than her, but her family was well-off, and Xunxian was also a wife. The Mi family naturally agreed happily.

Although Sun Gan is a little older, she still loves her. She thought that she would spend her whole life in such a generous life of luxury, especially when she gave birth to a daughter, she would give up and spend a good life with her husband.

Unexpectedly, Peng Feng, another great hero who was second only to her husband, joined forces with Wang Chao, Wang Dong, Wang Xiaolei and other wealthy gentry to join forces to make Sun Gan and divide the Sun family's property. Sun Gan's wife and concubine were also divided by several people, and she and her daughter became Peng Feng's toys from then on.

What can she do if she is a weak woman? The consequences are much better than being in a different place or becoming a prostitute. If she can give birth to one and half of her daughter for Peng Feng, the future will be more guaranteed, and she can only relieve her heart and welcome Peng Feng Quyi.

It was getting late, and she thought Peng Feng would not come to her room tonight, so she wanted to rest. After taking off her jewelry, Yingying stood up and gently took off her soft robe. Under the light, she was like a flowery beauty, Yingying stood up pretty, with her chest straight waist, long legs and fat buttocks, and her body round and jade. She was really attractive.

With a creak, the door opened.

Mi Yue turned her head unexpectedly and saw Peng Feng walking in with a strange look of excitement. When she saw her fragrant body halfway, Peng Feng laughed and strode over, stepped on the Jindun, which still had body temperature, lifted her robe, and pressed her hands heavily on her shoulders...

The braziers for sacrifices are frequently seen on the streets.

There are many wars in Ji County, and death is common. Therefore, during the Zhongyuan Ghost Festival, there are particularly many braziers on the streets. Far and near, there are scattered and piles of fires, and countless gray butterflies are dancing in the wind.

Most people are poor, but they can still afford paper money. Their lives are already so miserable that they can no longer suffer their ancestors. I also hope that the ancestors can bring them some peaceful days. Everyone who squats on the street and burns paper money is silently looking forward to it.

There are not many good houses in the entire Jixian County town, and even fewer luxury houses like the Peng family. The Peng Mansion is surrounded by a wide road where four carriages can be galloped together, but no one dares to burn paper in this area. If necessary, no one dares to walk on these roads.

Today is the day when the Ghost King opens the gates of ghosts.

And the Peng family in Ji County is the living ghost king.

Looking at the entire Peng County, who dares to be in front of the Ghost King...

Take back this sentence!

At this moment, ghosts suddenly appeared around the Peng Mansion, whether it was the front door and the back door, the left door and the right door, or outside the high walls everywhere, many figures suddenly appeared at the same time.

"Swoosh swish swish swish", the first person and the fierce guard dog who discovered it was quickly shot and killed before they could roar a few times, using crossbows that were rare in the Peng family.

In fact, all long-range weapons are strictly prohibited by the court. But Longyou is not as good as Guanzhong. You cannot have bows and arrows, so it is really difficult to resist horse thieves who come and go like the wind. Moreover, Longyou mainly focuses on animal husbandry, and whether it is dealing with thieves or wild wolves, bows and arrows are more sharp.

Since you cannot protect the safety of officials and people, you have to allow others to protect themselves. Therefore, bows and arrows are not uncommon in Longyou, but crossbows... are still only owned by the army. Not only because they are more powerful, but it is also difficult for folk workshops to create quality crossbows.

Of course, they could build such a strong financial power as the Li family in Longxi, and they did make crossbows secretly, but they did not dare to use it blatantly. When they sent 600 tiger and leopard cavalry to escort Li Yu, they were all equipped with guns, but they did not dare to show the crossbows. It was not because of the family's life and death crisis that the secret weapon could only be hidden secretly.

But Li Yu was not only the baron of Ji County, but also the commander of Zhechong Guoyi. He had the right to form an army and form an army that belonged to the imperial court but was directly under his title, so he was also in power to equip military crossbows. Therefore, Li Yu sent someone to say hello to Hegan Chengji early on.

Hegan Chengji is a rebellious prisoner. Now he has a title and military position. It is entirely due to Li Yu's help. He will never pay back the kindness he owes him for the rest of his life. As soon as Li Yu's letter of help arrives, Hegan Chengji is very happy and can repay some kindness, which makes the psychological burden much lighter!

In addition, the enemy had retreated and there was no large-scale military activity for a while. So Hegan Chengji immediately concentrated the military crossbows as much as possible and sent them to Li Yu. However, Li Yu had mastered this batch of military crossbows, but he kept secretly and was not taken out until tonight.

But it is not used to attack the city and fight on the battlefield, but to attack the Peng Mansion.

Of course, it is much sharper to kill a chicken.

The Peng family is not guarded tonight.

Peng Feng was determined to plot against others, but he never expected that the baron, who was unwilling to get involved in Jixian County, was also plotting against him and capable of calculating him. He sent someone to stare at Wang Chao and others, but he did not think that Li Yu had the ability to approach him.

But... the great wealthy people in this Ji County are all mainly engaged in business! They not only operate in the Western Regions, but Chang'an is also one of their hypermarkets. And the fifth Lingruo is the God of Wealth in the Chang'an hypermarket. As long as she is willing, her tentacles can be directly extended to Tubo and even the countries in the Western Regions.

How could Peng Feng have been dealing with Central Plains merchants a few years ago be connected with Li Yu, who has just taken office this year? But they just have connections. Through these people staring at him, how could he hide his every move from Li Yu?

I keep stalking all the way, and it’s not all wilderness and jungle. As long as you pass by the town, you stay and eat, you always have the opportunity to contact me. It’s not difficult to get a secret letter and then seal it with a hot paint as it is. These businessmen walking in Longxi are foxes and rats mingling in the gray area!

Therefore, Wang Chao and others did take Li Yu's orders and keep trying to find out what happened on his side. He also made every effort to prevent and kept making scenes. For example, tonight's peaceful and unpredictable behavior, but unfortunately, Li Yu did not rely on those five people at the beginning.

Peng Feng and Xiao Zhengshi Yongdan and the Horse King Luo Kedi agreed to take action at three o'clock in the morning. It was almost four o'clock in the morning, and it was the most sleepy and most likely to lose vigilance. Li Yu chose the second hour of Hai, and nine o'clock in the night.
