There was someone protruding his head on the roof of the backyard, there was an eye in the crack of the door, and a person stood behind the window...

Zhang Banian closed his eyes and said, "Let's withdraw."

"Everyone knows that those lunatics are very powerful. If you remove these brothers, you will be too busy to deal with them!"

Zhang Banian glanced at Chen An who was smiling, and felt that this was a provocation, so he said, "Everything is withdrawn."

The man beside him shouted helplessly: "Everyone comes out."

There were more than ten people hiding in the backyard, and in the front, the Imperial City Department invested more than fifty people in Cao Qi's family, which could almost fight a small war.

Zhang Banian stood there coldly, and these spies were a little embarrassed.

"Go back."

Zhang Banian and Shen An came to the front yard.

Cao Qi sat in the main hall with a sheathed sword on his knee.

"This is a treasure sword passed down by the ancestors, drinking countless blood."

Cao Qi pulled out the long sword almost affectionately, "This knife slashed out the wealth of the Cao family. Today I want to use it to kill those idiots who despise the Cao family, but I don't know if they dare to come."

Is Lao Cao thrusting?

Chen An said, "That man is a lunatic, he will definitely dare to come."

Cao Qi looked up, his eyes full of coldness, "Crazy?"

Zhang Banian was looking around, looking for loopholes.

Chen An sat down and said slowly: "The man behind him is a madman. He has been sticking to a goal that is illusory and impossible to achieve for thirty or forty years. No, with the words of his father, they have been sticking to it for eighty years. As the Song Dynasty became more and more stable, they found that there was no chance..."

Cao Qi had already heard something, and he put the long sword into the scabbard. "I spent the first half of my life in a cautious and meticulous manner. Once I had to get rid of it, I felt that the first half of my life was like a joke, and I wish I could play everything I should play in the world immediately."

"Yes! It's time to play." Chen An agreed, but glanced at Zhang Banian.

If you want to play for a while, it doesn’t matter if Empress Dowager Cao is going crazy.

Zhang Banian shook his head slightly, indicating that he was not interested in reporting this to the official.

"That person will feel angry and confused when he finds that his efforts with his father have become jokes." Cao Qi's expression was dim, probably more like talking about his first half of his life, "I am at a loss and don't know why I live. Sometimes I am happy, sometimes I feel that living is boring. It's better to practice Taoism and isolate the love and friendship in the world..."

You can't do this!

"The uncle is too worried." Chen An was worried that if Lao Cao really went to practice Taoism, Empress Dowager Cao would go crazy and cause trouble for himself, so he advised: "That man is a traitor. He dare not walk in the sun, so he will naturally be boring to live. But you are the uncle! The Cao family, the glory of his ancestors must be recovered!"

"The glory of ancestors?"

Zhang Banian was watching Cao Qi. He felt a little out of the world just now and couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

He was not afraid of anything beside him, but Empress Dowager Cao made him feel the pressure.

That was not an ordinary woman. When the late emperor was there, he once brought a group of people to suppress the thief. Later, he jumped onto the roof in broad daylight and killed off the powerful existence of the marriage officer.

Zhang Banian looked at his thin claws and was wondering whether he could block Empress Dowager Cao's sword skills.

Cao Qi's eyes were filled with glory, "Yes! My family was originally a general, but now this generation is unknown, it's not appropriate!"

"Yes!" Chen An calmly poured Cao Qi a few bowls of chicken soup, "Now the Song Dynasty is booming, and there are many opportunities to kill the enemy in the future. After a famous general like the uncle, wouldn't he go into battle to share the country's worries? Wouldn't that be the Song Dynasty's losses?"

"That's right." Cao Qi regained his spirits and ordered: "Set up wine, I want to invite Anbei to drink."

Zhang Banian snorted coldly from the side, thinking that you actually ignored someone, which shows that he is a fool.

"Zhang Duzhi, it's not that someone doesn't understand the world, but that you are a member of the official family and you are not easy to entertain."

Cao Qi expressed his concerns very calmly. He didn't want to have any relationship with Zhang Banian, even if he had a drink together, he didn't want to.

This man was frightened by Zhao Zhen back then. Even though the current official is Zhao Shu, he still dared not step beyond the line.

Only such a national relative can reassure the people above, so Zhang Banian just said coldly: "At the time of big things, I won't drink alcohol."

Chen An just raised his glass and said, "Wine makes the hero brave! I can't cheer up if I don't drink some wine."

"Wine to make heroic courage..." Cao Qi praised: "Anbei, you can always say something reasonable."

"There is another sentence later." Chen An said seriously: "The rice is so hot and the pustules."

Cao Qi, who was eating steamed buns, said angrily: "What does the pustules mean?"

"What a hero means."

Chen An lie without changing his expression.

"Are you a hero?" Cao Qi was very happy and began to talk about the heroic deeds of the ancestors of the Cao family.

Zhang Banian stood outside until dark.

The night breeze blew slightly on his body, and his robe covered his dry body, looking empty, blown by the wind, swaying slightly.

Chen An and Cao Qi kept drinking inside, gradually getting drunk.

"It's almost done?"

Cao Qi kept looking outside.

“Don’t worry.”

Chen An raised his glass calmly.

This is wine, and it's easy to drink.

Cao Qi shook his head and said, "I think they should come."

call!

A gust of cold wind blew outside.

Chen An looked up and saw that Zhang Banian outside disappeared at some point.

He suddenly stood up and ordered: "Xiaozhong is optimistic about the uncle of the country!"

He rushed out anxiously, and Cao Qi said, "No one needs to take care of him!"

Chen An rushed outside, slowly turned around, and walked backward to where he could see the roof.

On the roof, Zhang Banian lowered his head slightly, his hands were clawed, and he was waiting for something.

"Silence!"

Chen An stretched out his index finger and stood up on his lips, and Cao Qi stopped inside the door of the main hall.

Several guards of the Cao family quietly touched them from behind. Wen Xiaochong turned around and took a look, nodded slightly, and then pointed at Cao Qi.

He walked to Chen An and whispered: "Langjun, they are here."

"Someone knows."

Chen An held the hilt of the knife with one hand and looked around with bright eyes.

"Zhang Duzhi is calling."

Wen Xiaozhong whispered: "We have evacuated the people from the Imperial City Division before. This is why we guessed Mr. Wen's intention. At this moment, we appeared on the roof openly, which is called formation."

"That person will come."

Chen An's very confident attitude made Wen Xiaozhong praise: "Although you have never seen him, you can guess very accurately."

"He is just a madman, and he wishes he could destroy others and his own madman, so he is not afraid of danger."

Chen An lowered his head, used his ears, and all the senses in his body to feel the world.

There is no croaking insects, and insects in winter need to hide.

There is a little slight noise around it, but it can be easily distinguished.

Chen An distinguished the noise and quickly felt the silence.

There was something indescribable in the silence, and Chen An didn't know whether it was a psychological effect or something.

When this strangeness became more and more intense, he suddenly looked up.

Zhang Banian on the roof shook his body, like a willow branch in the wind.

Chen An didn't know why, but then something fell on the ground.

It's a hidden weapon!

Zhang Banian's body arched slightly, like a big cat.

"Come out and let someone meet... I haven't seen each other for many years, are you okay?"

There is no movement below.

Zhang Banian said coldly: "Mr. Wen, why do you call me a sir? The descendants of merchants can call themselves a sir by hanging a sign of the remnants of the country of destruction? Just be like a monkey and a crown..."

"ha!"

After a loud shout, the two men did not know what method they used to go up the roof at the same time.

The two of them held short knives and attacked them one by one.

The long sword waved in the night wind, and Zhang Banian's body also moved.
