Spring and Autumn Confucian Heroes

Chapter 232 Undressing
Fang Li's words were not malicious.

He first praised Tian Qi for being thirsty for talents, and then said that he traveled through mountains and rivers and came from the state of Lu to join the Prime Minister.

The good name of the person who is a minister is well-known, and the scholars are swayed in their hearts, and they come here from thousands of miles away,
If only this is the case, it is also a very good picture.

However, behind Fang Li, the conversation changed, depicting a picture of scholars from far away not only not being taken seriously, but being ridiculed instead.

The two pictures before and after form a strong contrast.

If this matter is confirmed, it will be a great blow to Tian Qi's reputation, and I am afraid that no one will come to join Tian Qi again.

Fang Li's subsequent words were even more heartbreaking.

If we say that the above description of Tian Qi is not really seeking talents, it is just a matter of morality.

After that, it is a question of ability.

If Fang Li was born in a poor family, Tian Qi concluded that this person stole the jade pendant, which shows how arbitrary and snobbish Tian Qi is.

For a country's prime minister, whether the character is noble or not is second, and the most important thing is to see whether the person is really talented.

The prime minister of the country is under one person and above ten thousand people.

Whether the country is strong enough has a lot to do with the ability of the prime minister.

It doesn't matter whether the prime minister is sinister or greedy for fame, as long as he is talented and can lead Qi to prosperity, he is a qualified prime minister.

On the contrary, if the Prime Minister himself has no talent, he is not qualified to stay in this position and become the helm of Qi.

More and more people surrounded him from all directions, and they all set their sights on Tian Qi.

Tian Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, and his face suddenly burst into anger.

"You bastards, I just want you to ask Mr. Fang Li carefully, why are you so arrogant, and why do you want to attack Mr. Fang Li so hard?"

"Come here, pull these two servants down and stick them to death!"

The two domestic servants whose martial arts were abolished were ecstatic when they saw Tian Qi come out.

But now his face was ashen, and his eyes showed extreme horror.

"Master Xiang, Master Xiang..."

The two shouted loudly, wanting to say something, but the enshrined behind Tian Qi directly removed their jaws.

Soon, some soldiers dragged the two into the prime minister's mansion, and the fate can be imagined.

Seeing this, Huan couldn't help frowning.

It never occurred to him that the Prime Minister of the State of Qi would act so viciously, and he would kill his subordinates without hesitation.

Of course, those two could only be regarded as domestic servants.

According to the laws of Qi State, even if a domestic servant is beaten to death by the master, the master will not bear legal responsibility.

Many other countries also have this law. Domestic servants and slaves are not protected by the law, and their social status is still lower than that of common people.

"I am not strict with my subordinates, which is why I have wronged you. If there is any offence, I hope you will forgive me."

"If you don't give up, sir, please enter the mansion to talk to each other, and I will personally toast and apologize!"

Tian Qi's face changed like the sky.

He was not angry at Fang Li's reprimand to him, instead he saluted and apologized sincerely, which made Huan Changgao take a look at this person.

The people who were watching were still talking about it, but now they all shut their mouths.

Tian Qi ordered his two servants to be killed with sticks. This kind of ruthless method made everyone feel chills.

Therefore, everyone naturally feared Tian Qi.

Later, facing the aggressive Fang Li, Tian Qi not only did not rely on his own power to be domineering, but instead took the initiative to admit his mistake and apologize.

This kind of demeanor is also convincing.

Many people thought to themselves: "Perhaps those two domestic servants are a bit arrogant and domineering, so there are so many troubles."

Regarding Tian Qi's initiative to apologize, Fang Li frowned slightly.

Tian Qi advances by retreating, which makes it difficult for Fang Li to resist. If he is still aggressive now, it will bring out Tian Qi's mind instead.

While thinking about it, Fang Li smiled, and he laughed happily.

"Since Mr. Xiangguo knows that he is wrong, and admits his mistake so sincerely, if I still hold on to it, it will be a little ignorant."

When Tian Qi heard this, his brows twitched a few times.

He obviously shifted the responsibility to the two servants, but Fang Li acted as if he had never heard of it, and directly took Tian Qi's apology as an admission of mistake.

There is still a big difference between apologizing for mistakes and being broad-minded.

"It's just that, since Lord Xiangguo suspects that I stole the jade pendant, I will naturally have to clear myself of the crime."

What Fang Li said behind him made Tian Qi narrow his eyes slightly.

Tian Qi knows better than others whether Fang Li has a jade pendant or not.

The reason why Tian Qi didn't continue to entangle is because no matter what the result is, if he is aggressive here, he will leave a bad impression on everyone.

But now, Fang Lifei wanted to understand that matter, Tian Qi naturally sneered in his heart.

"Who exactly stole the jade pendant, I don't want to pursue it anymore, Mr. Fang should stop making trouble."

Although he was happy in his heart, Tian Qi didn't move at all outside, but pretended to be embarrassed.

Fang Li held his head high.

"Whether you have stolen Lord Xiangguo's jade pendant, I know it well. Since Lord Xiangguo suspects that I am the thief, I must explain it clearly!"

"Stab!"

As soon as Fang Li finished speaking, everyone heard the sound of clothes being torn.

Fang Li tore his long gown fiercely and was about to take it off completely.

It's summer now, and Fang Li doesn't wear thick clothes. After the outer gown was torn, many places were exposed.

"what!"

There were quite a few women among the people watching, and when they saw this scene, they all covered their eyes and screamed.

Even those men were stunned at this moment.

They never expected that Fang Li would actually take off his clothes in front of so many people in broad daylight.

"I took off all my clothes, so that adults can see whether the jade pendant is on me or not."

Tian Qi was also dumbfounded, but he didn't speak.

"Brother!"

Huan Chang took a step forward, pressed Fang Li's shoulders, and leaned closer.

"Please think twice."

Looking at the worry in Huan Chang's eyes, Fang Li said: "Being wronged for no reason, as a brother, I naturally want to find my innocence. Ah Chang, don't stop me."

Huan Chang stared at Fang Li's eyes, and from those black and white eyes, he could see firmness and madness.

It was the madness of being willing to cut himself to pieces and daring to pull Xiangguo off his horse.

Huan Chang withdrew his hands, took a few steps back slowly, and stopped talking.

One piece.

two pieces.

three item.

All the clothes were thrown on the ground, and Fang Li stood proudly at the gate of Xiangguo wearing only a pair of shorts.

At the same time, many women onlookers covered their eyes and screamed again and again, and ran towards the distance, cursing 'hooligans' in their mouths.

"Master Xiangguo, the clothes are here, you can send someone to search."

Tian Qi narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Since Mr. wants to regain his innocence so much, how can I not cooperate."

"If you can't find the jade pendant, I will announce it to the whole city and solemnly apologize to you sir!"

Tian Qi sneered in his heart.

Maybe Fang Li didn't steal the jade pendant himself, but the jade pendant didn't necessarily belong to him.
