The current general Lei Zhentian is not only invincible on the battlefield, but also holds a high position in the government and is respected by many loyal ministers and righteous men. He also comes from a martial arts family and has very close relations with the underworld and the white world.
It was not surprising that he invited many of his fellow men in the underworld to his wedding this time. Moreover, he was a person who especially liked to support the younger generation. Therefore, although Fang Yunhan's only fame when making the invitations was that he solved the case of the Embroidery Thief, he was still included in the list.
Of course, after that, Wolf General went to Luoyang and learned about the events before and after the martial arts conference. He also met Fang Yunhan in person and knew very well that this man was not just an ordinary young knight who had just started out.
The part of the invitations that Wolf General was responsible for distributing had basically been sent out, so he asked to go back to the capital with Fang Yunhan.
He also had some good intentions.
Fang Yunhan had ruined the Yaksha Sect's plan, and they might be ambushed next. If they only competed in martial arts, when Wolf General saw those corpses, he knew that he was not as good as Fang Yunhan. However, there were too many ways to assassinate people in the martial arts world, and in terms of these martial arts experiences, Wolf General thought that he had much more than this young man in his early twenties.
Fang Yunhan did not refuse.
However, after that, they took eight days to reach the capital from a place not far from Luoyang, and they never suffered any form of assassination again.
General Wolf thought that after the two previous actions, the Yaksha Sect had become somewhat wary of Fang Yunhan and would not act rashly in the short term.
Fang Yunhan felt that the other party had already paid such a huge price, and if they gave up so hastily, it would be difficult for the top leaders to convince them. It was more likely that they were currently hindered by other events and could not mobilize the maximum number of manpower to encircle and kill Fang Yunhan.
But no matter which possibility it is, Fang Yunhan is not the type of person who would worry about such things all day long.
Along the way, he enjoyed the flowers, the scenery, and the food. Whenever he saw injustice, he was always willing to help. After arriving in the capital, he had a special interest in exploring this prosperous imperial city.
In fact, if we really talk about business or population prosperity, neither Da Qi nor Daming can compare with the big cities in his previous life, but in different eras and different worlds, each city has its own unique style.
Especially because Lei Zhentian's wedding is imminent, people from all over are coming to congratulate him, and the capital is more lively than usual.
Although there were also many people from the martial arts world gathering here, the excitement of attending a happy event was completely different from the atmosphere of the upcoming martial arts conference in Luoyang.
When the wolf general arrived in the capital, he was about to return home to report. Fang Yunhan took leave of him temporarily and strolled alone on a street in the capital that was more than thirteen steps wide.
There is a lot of traffic here, and shops are lined up on both sides, but the streets appear very clean. After all, this is where the emperor lives, and the government has special people to manage cleanliness. From time to time, there are some men with swords and whose clothing and temperament are obviously different from those of ordinary people patrolling the streets.
After walking for a while, Fang Yunhan saw a restaurant next to him that was decorated quite elegantly. Almost all the people sitting inside were from the underworld. He decided to go in and sit down to listen to the gossip that these people were talking about over the table.
Unexpectedly, just as he stepped onto the steps in front of the restaurant, he heard a series of noises of tables and chairs collapsing. A man dressed like a scholar fell from the second floor and smashed a table in the lobby on the first floor.
The wine, food and soup on the table spilled all over him. The four men who were originally sitting at the table and chatting loudly quickly stood up and moved away, looking at the scholar who ruined their food and wine with unfriendly faces.
There was a sudden silence in the hall, and then a man on the second floor walked to the railing, overlooking the hall with a sneer on his face.
The four men looked up and saw the man's arrogant attitude. They were very upset. The oldest one cursed, "You threw this kid down . Don't you have eyes?"
When the assailant heard the man's shout, he jumped down and stepped on the scholar's chest, snorting coldly: "I just threw it with my aim, what are you going to do?"
He was now surrounded by four men, but he still raised his head and asked back, looking down on everyone .
A lot of people watching the fun had gathered at the railing on the second floor that overlooked the lobby on the first floor.
Among them were some Jinyiwei wearing goose hats and brocade clothes . Although they were government officials, they turned a blind eye to the vicious behavior of the big man in the hall.
Fang Yunhan heard some people talking at the table in the corner of the lobby.
"I know those four guys. They are the only four left among the Thirty-Six Friends of Taihang. They are quite famous. But who is the one with the hooked nose? Why is he so arrogant?"
"That's the Iron Hand, a man from the East Factory."
"It turned out to be him."
Many people in the hall showed a look of realization, and then they were deeply wary, just because of this name. Some people even left the restaurant in a hesitant manner.
Jin Buhuan, a man with sunken eyes, a hooked nose, and high cheekbones, was an evil master from outside the Great Wall. He loved to hunt down strong men who did not know martial arts and beat them to death with his palms. He was originally a wanted person by the government, but unfortunately he later defected to the East Depot and helped the East Depot add some new torture methods, so the wanted order was revoked and no one dared to provoke him anymore.
The Jinyiwei were originally the emperor's personal guards and ceremonial guards, and were also responsible for investigation, arrest, interrogation, etc., and were directly under the emperor's jurisdiction. However, the current Jinyiwei commander fawned on Cao Zhongxian, the head of the East Factory, and the Jinyiwei followed the lead of the East Factory staff. Naturally, there would be no conflict with Jin Buhuan, and he might even help the tyrant.
The Four Friends of Taihang were originally quite tough and looked like they were about to take action, but when they heard others discussing Jin Buhuan's identity, beads of sweat as big as soybeans suddenly flowed down their faces.
As soon as they heard the word "Dongchang", they tried to avoid it, but they couldn't save face if they just left. When they were in a dilemma, someone among the onlookers on the second floor spoke up.
"Jin Buhuan, I don't think this scholar has much skill. How did he provoke you to do such a cruel thing?"
"Who?" Jin Buhuan looked in the direction of the voice and exerted force with his feet as if he wanted to crush the scholar to death, but suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his knee, as if he had been hit by an arrow.
He was shocked and staggered a few steps. He looked down and saw a broad bean embedded in the side of his knee.
The broad beans in this restaurant were fried very crispy and light, which actually made Jin Buhuan, who had practiced hard martial arts, feel a sharp pain penetrating into his bones. The person who attacked him must have had internal strength far superior to his.
He half-bent his waist, holding his knees, looking funny, and turned his head to look upward with resentment in his eyes.
The people watching on the second floor quickly moved aside for fear of being hated by this East Factory lackey.
In this way, the three people who did not avoid stood out.
One of them was throwing a broad bean in his hand. He was wearing a white robe but a red cloak. His two carefully trimmed beards were as lively as his eyebrows.
"Lu Xiaofeng?!"
