I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 193 Broken Leg Again
Qi Heng's talent for reading is obvious to all. The grumpy third son of Qi kept swearing at him as a bastard. Could it be because he was ten years older than Qi Heng, but he is still white now, while Qi Heng, who is eight years old, is already a child. , not surprisingly, he was on the list of the college examination in August, a proper little scholar.

Master Qi is a Tongzhi of Fengzhou, and in the officialdom, he understands the importance of a scholar in a family better than the people present, "The Qi family wants to develop and grow and leave Qi Heng in the future. Similarly, if there is no great effort from our Qi family Helping each other, it is absolutely impossible for Qi Heng to stand out in the officialdom, and he can't write two characters of "Qi", our master and Qi Heng complement each other and help each other."

Young Master Qi's young and arrogant face was full of resentment and unwillingness, but he still understood that the overall situation was the most important thing, "Father, I know, I will not target Qi Heng again."

"Big Brother is right, but scholars are always upright. Although Qi Heng is young, it is time for him to know how much sacrifices the master has made to protect him." Old Master Qi Er pointed out the key point with a smile, "Help It is definitely necessary to help, but definitely not at this time."

The second son of Qi's eyes lit up. He doesn't like reading. He followed his father in business a few years ago, and his mind turned quickly. "Father, you mean that we will take action when Qi Heng is desperate?"

"Second brother is right, icing on the cake is worse than giving charcoal in the snow." The eldest son of Qi laughed, and only if Qi Heng remembered the kindness of the master's family, he would remember this kindness in his heart, and it could be used by the Qi family in the future.

Looking at his two sons and three grandsons, Mr. Qi stroked his beard with a satisfied look on his face, "With concerted efforts, the Qi family can reach a higher level!"

Nanhu Lane Qi Family Yard.

The weather was hot in June, and Zhan Feiyu punched another set after morning reading, and his whole body was drenched in sweat. Fortunately, thanks to yesterday's shock, hot water was boiled in the kitchen early, and he dared not neglect it at all. .

Zhan Feiyu touched the scattered hair, it was still a little damp, "Ah Nuan, don't wipe it, it will dry after a while."

"I'll bring the breakfast." He Nuan agreed, cleaned up and went to the kitchen.

"Ah!" Suddenly, a shrill cry broke the tranquility of the morning.

After a while, two more terrified shouts sounded from the direction of the gate.

The sound of hurried footsteps was accompanied by the sound of opening the door. Not only the Qi family, but also the gatekeepers from several neighboring houses came out to check the situation. The sound was too creepy.

Zhan Feiyu stood at the door, seeing the scene in the open space in front of the door, Baozi's face suddenly turned cold.

"Miss, you go in first and let my brother handle it." He Nuan also looked extremely ugly.

And the two little maids who yelled at the beginning were already sitting on the ground with their legs limp, their faces pale, and they hugged each other, but they didn't dare to look forward at all.

"I'm fine." Zhan Feiyu wasn't afraid, but couldn't suppress his anger no matter what.

Qi Heng, who was standing by the side, was stunned for a while, then ran to the corner suddenly, and then vomited.

The always unrestrained and unrestrained Mr. Ming's face was tense. Even though he knew that Zhan Feiyu had offended Liu Baihu yesterday, even if he didn't say that Liu Baihu was meddling in his own business, but when he whipped Xiaoyu's face, He Sheng would There is nothing wrong with pulling people off their horses.

As for Liu Baihu's broken leg, it was because he was not skilled in martial arts, and Baihu in the dignified guard had his leg broken by his own mount. Could it be someone else's fault?But he, a military officer, was cruel to his mount.

A strong smell of blood came over his face, Zhan Feiyu looked at the black horse lying on the ground and twitching, and walked over step by step.

Seeing this, He Nuan hurriedly followed.

"My lord said that even if you are a beast, you should be severely punished if you make a mistake!" The soldier holding the boning knife smiled viciously, deliberately raised the blood-stained knife in his hand, and then stabbed the black horse's belly with the knife again, "Dare you?" Offend my lord, hum, this is the end!"

The black horse must have been given medicine, even though two of its four legs had been cut off, and it was unable to move. There were tears in the eyes of the pair of horses, and they whined in pain.

There was a pool of bright red blood on the ground. Zhan Feiyu squatted down stepping on the blood, touched the horse's head, covered the black horse's eyes with his left hand, and took out the dagger he was carrying.

"What are you going to do?" The boy who was holding down the black horse stood up and pointed at Zhan Feiyu's proud provocation, "Do you still want to kill people?"

"Ah Nuan." Zhan Feiyu said in a low voice, and the dagger in his hand stabbed down hard, directly cutting the horse's neck, and warm blood splashed out instantly.

"Ah..." The maidservants who were watching from a distance turned pale again and shouted in horror. No one thought that Zhan Feiyu would kill the black horse with a single knife.

The soldier holding the boning knife turned black, and he was ordered by Lord Baihu to kill the animal at the gate of Qi's house, and he wanted to cut the animal to pieces.

He only cut off two horse legs before, but he didn't expect that Zhan Feiyu would dare to kill the horse directly. When the time comes, the adults will blame him?

"How dare you kill Master Baihu's horse?" The unfit soldier roared angrily, waving the bloody boning knife in his hand, at first glance it seemed that he wanted to kill Zhan Feiyu to vent his anger.

Zhan Feiyu was silent, until the movement under his left palm became more and more gentle, and finally returned to calm, then he looked up, looked at the soldiers and the two servants, "Get lost!"

"Our lord said that even if he dies, this beast will be chopped up and fed to the dogs!" The soldier was furious. If he had known that the little girl was here to kill horses, he should have stopped her just now.

"Yes, chop it up and feed it to the dog!" The two servants hurriedly took over the words. They were all afraid of Liu Baihu, especially Liu Baihu who had a broken leg. The three of them would be disadvantaged in their affairs. If the adults got angry, what would happen to the three of them Not much better than this horse.

Without needing Zhan Feiyu to speak, He Sheng kicked the three of them flying one by one, "Miss, I'll take care of it."

Zhan Feiyu stood up and looked at the three who fell to the ground and couldn't get up. She was obviously just a short girl, but the cold eyes silenced the clamoring three.

"Ah Nuan, since Liu Baihu injured his leg, I should go and visit him." Zhan Feiyu looked back at the black horse's body, and walked to the other side of the alley.

"Ah Nuan, you stay here." He Sheng said something and followed immediately.

Finally finished vomiting, Qi Heng's face covered in cold sweat was pale and bloodless, and he asked in a panic, "Little Martial Uncle, what is Xiao Yu going to do?"

Mingsan looked at the dark horse that was tortured on the ground, and patted Qi Heng's head, "Don't worry, He Sheng will follow, everything will be fine, you two will buy a coffin and come back."

The two servants of the Qi family froze for a moment, then nodded, "Yes."

But the onlookers understood that it was going to put the dark horse in a coffin and bury it.

But thinking of Zhan Feiyu who was going to Liu's mansion, even though everyone was caught like a cat with curiosity, no one dared to go to the gate of Liu's mansion to watch the excitement.

On the other side, Liu Mansion.

Early in the morning, Zhan Feiyu brought He Sheng to the gate of the Liu Mansion, which really stunned the gatekeeper, and when he realized it, Zhan Feiyu had already driven straight in.

"You can't go in, my lord hasn't woken up yet..." The young man chased up to stop him, but he didn't dare to make a loud noise, for fear of waking Liu Baihu up, at least he would be reprimanded, and at worst he would be whipped.

Liu’s mansion is also a secondary courtyard, but compared to the house at the end of Qiheng Lane, the area of ​​Liu’s secondary courtyard is at least twice as large. You can see the main house of the main courtyard after passing through the Chuihua Gate. You don’t need to think about it to know that this is Liu. Hundreds of houses.

"Who are you?" Six or seven women with different styles looked at Zhan Feiyu who came over in surprise. They had been guarding outside the bedroom all night, and all of them looked haggard.

"Mrs. Butterfly, my lord is still awake." The little servant girl reminded cleverly, and stopped Zhan Feiyu by stepping forward.

Liu Baihu has a bad temper, and his leg was hurt all night. The wives worked hard, and these little maids were even more so. Now that Liu Baihu is sleeping, they can take the opportunity to take a rest, and they absolutely dare not be disturbed by others.

Madam Die yawned, looked at Zhan Feiyu with a pale complexion, delicate and pretty, and suddenly asked, "Are you from the Qi family?"

The other wives opened their eyes wide in an instant, and looked at Zhan Feiyu in amazement. Not to mention that the adult had a broken leg, how dare he come to the door early in the morning?Is this eating the bear heart and leopard gall?

Madam Die was born in a brothel, and she is usually cruel and ruthless, but looking at the white and tender Zhan Feiyu, and thinking of Liu Baihu's ruthless temperament, it is rare for her to show kindness, "Little girl, it is up to your parents to make amends. You go back."

"You are kind." The other lady sneered sarcastically, she should have let the little girl in, and when the lord's anger was vented, they would not have to worry about offending the lord.

"That's right, this damn girl broke my lord's leg, not to mention apologizing, she deserves to be cut to death!" The speaking lady glared at Zhan Feiyu viciously. If she wasn't worried about waking Liu Baihu, she would have wanted to beat him up. She slapped her a few times.

Last night, she served Liu Baihu to drink the medicine, but she was angered and spilled a bowl of medicine on her hands. Fortunately, it was only warm liquid, otherwise the skin of her hands would be scalded.

He Sheng raised his hand to block it, the wives did not dare to have contact with the outsider, let alone yell to wake Liu Baihu who had finally fallen asleep, they could only watch helplessly as Zhan Feiyu entered the inner room.

"Ah!" A muffled cry of pain sounded, and the ladies were taken aback for a moment, then ignored other things and ran to the inner room past He Sheng.

There was a smell of medicine in the bedroom, and Zhan Feiyu was standing not far from the bed, and on the bed, Liu Baihu grimaced in pain, staring at Zhan Feiyu with bloodthirsty eyes.

"My lord?" Madam Die looked at the two of them calmly, feeling that something was wrong. Could it be that the lord saw the murderer who broke his leg, so he pulled his broken left leg in anger.

Liu Baihu was panting heavily, and in an instant, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and a strange and cold smile appeared on his distorted face due to the pain, "Very good! I, Liu Hefeng, have never suffered such a big loss."

"There is a first time for everything, so Liu Baihu can get used to it." Compared with Liu Baihu, who has fierce eyes and crazy eyes, Zhan Feiyu calmly said, "I hope Liu Baihu will remember, to take revenge." Just look for me, don’t involve innocent people, Uncle Chongguang said that I will get revenge, so next time, I’m worried that Liu Baihu will lose your left leg!”

Ho!Where did this little girl come from!
In the bedroom, Madam Die and the others stared dumbfounded at Zhan Feiyu who had spoken. They had only seen Liu Baihu speak to others, and they had seen Liu Baihu torture people so that they could not survive. They had never seen anyone Dare to talk to Liu Baihu like this.

Seeing Liu Baihu's face livid due to rage, Mrs. Die and the others suspected that if it wasn't for the broken leg, Liu Baihu would definitely get out of bed and strangle the provocative Zhan Feiyu to death.

……

After Liu Baihu fell off his horse and was stepped on by his mount and broke his leg, another shocking news spread among the families in Fengzhou.

Meng Zhizhou didn't open another mansion, so he lived in the mansion behind the mansion, his wife and children stayed in the capital, and at this moment, the butler hurried into the study just as he prepared the ceremony.

"Why are you so flustered?" Wen Sheng asked, Meng Zhizhou's eyes were still on the official document in his hand.

Fengzhou is a small place and didn't have many official duties. In addition, the entire Jiangnan Road is under the jurisdiction of the Chen family. Meng Zhizhou is actually quite leisurely.

But since Tong Tongzhi was imprisoned, Zhang Zhifu took control of Nanxuan Mansion, and the Chen family's business was evacuated from Nanxuan Mansion, the entire Jiangnan Road seemed to be peaceful, but there was a treacherous feeling that the mountain was about to rain.

Meng Zhizhou also knew that the turmoil in Nanxuan Mansion would not affect Fengzhou under his jurisdiction, but the Yue family of Zhang Zhifu was the Kong family, and it was said that they were valued by Gu Xueshi. There was also news that Prince Yu also had contacts with Zhang Zhifu.

There are small waves in the court, but they can cause turbulent waves in various state capitals. Meng Zhizhou has become more cautious in handling official affairs during this period, lest he be involved.

"My lord, something happened to Liu Baihu." The old butler had a bitter face, not knowing what to say.

Meng Zhizhou put down the official document, picked up his teacup and took a sip of tea, "He wants to attack the Qi family?"

After Liu Baihu broke his leg, Meng Zhizhou knew that Qi Tongzhi would come over, and indeed, he came yesterday with a heavy gift, hoping that Meng Zhizhou would reconcile it.

The old housekeeper reported back: "In the morning, Liu Baihu sent people to lead the horse to the gate of Qi's house and tortured it to death."

"Yeah." Meng Zhizhou was not surprised. Liu Baihu's move was clearly to vent his hatred. Fortunately, it was just a horse, so it would be better if he didn't directly send someone to beat up the Qi family.

The Qi family is a prominent family in Fengzhou. Although Qi Tongzhi is a sixth-rank official, he and Meng Zhizhou are colleagues. The two govern Fengzhou together. .

The old housekeeper looked at Meng Zhizhou where the old god was, and continued: "Afterwards, that little girl from the Qi family..."

When he heard that Liu Baihu's leg was broken by Zhan Feiyu, Meng Zhizhou choked and put down his teacup, "What did you say? Isn't that little girl only seven or eight years old?"

"Doctor Huang set Liu Baihu's bone again." The old butler nodded and told all the information he had found out, "At that time there were only Liu Baihu and the little girl in the inner room, and only Liu Baihu cried out in pain. After a loud cry, the little girl left with her guards, and Doctor Huang, who was staying overnight, was called over to rejoin the bone."

After a long time, Meng Zhizhou rubbed the center of his brows, only to feel his head hurt even more, "Is this a death feud?"

It might be possible to make peace with each other before, after all, Liu Baihu's leg was trampled off by a horse, and the sincerity of the Qi family's apology is also here, but now, Meng Zhizhou suddenly wants to resign from office.

On the other side, Qi Mansion.

Compared to the previous time when he was able to do a job with ease, this time Mr. Qi's face was as deep as water, and he sat on the main seat without saying a word.

"Is that dead girl crazy? How dare she?" Mr. Qi San was already panicking now. He remembered the time last year when a wealthy businessman offended Liu Baihu by robbing his private room.

After that, Liu Baihu didn't attack the rich businessman, but directly broke his son's hands and feet. Mr. Qi San heard that his legs and feet were connected later, but he was limping, and he couldn't lift heavy objects with his hands. It's half disabled.

Third Young Master Qi clenched his hands uneasily, and asked in a panic, "Grandpa, what should we do if Liu Baihu takes revenge on us?"

If Liu Baihu directly retaliated against Zhan Feiyu and Qi Heng, the third son of Qi would not be bothered, then they deserved what they deserved, and they dared to offend Liu Baihu in Fengzhou!But if the revenge came to him, thinking of Liu Baihu's tormenting methods, Qi San's face became even paler.

"Qi Heng can't stay anymore." Old Master Qi said slowly, cutting off the sliver of luck in his heart, and he will continue to suffer from it!

Originally, Old Master Qi wanted to train Qi Heng, and Qi Heng would help the Qi family in the future. The two sides complement each other, just like the relationship between Father Qi and the main family in these years. Drive people out of Fengzhou.

But these years, the master's family has also given Father Qi a lot of help, otherwise Father Qi would not be able to gain a foothold in Nanxuan Mansion in a short period of time, let alone expand his business. Old Master Qi originally planned to do the same for Qi Heng, but now he can't. Qi Heng and Liu Baihu cannot form a death feud for one Qi Heng.
