Pingyang Fu of the Red Chamber

Chapter 305 Xue Pan Gets Tricked
On the first floor of Yunliang Pavilion,
The benefactors around were shouting and agitating, and some even squeezed in to block the rushing thugs,

It was a lively scene. People on both sides were punched and kicked. From time to time, chairs and stools fought each other, and many people were beaten with bruises and swollen faces.

The servants brought by Xue Pan were also outnumbered, and those who were beaten were retreating steadily. Fortunately, they were loyal to protect the Lord, and there were a few masters who blocked the thugs in the Chunlou, and they were still able to hold on at this time.

But Xue Pan was besieged in the innermost place, and the hero was no match for four hands, so he looked extremely embarrassed.

When playing downstairs is inextricably linked.

Zhang Jinyu also took people down the stairs. At this moment, an old man in white clothes came from outside the gate of Chunlou, and came here with a few guards. Seeing the chaos here, he also frowned, seeing himself proud Disciple Xu Rentao's face turned dark because of his bruised nose and swollen face.

shouted without thinking;
"Stop, stop!"

With a yell, the voice was loud and full of confidence, and the people on the first floor were shocked.
"What's going on? It's not embarrassing to make such a mess. Xu Rentao, tell me what's going on?"

It seems to be scolding, but it is actually maintenance. The person who came here is Cheng Yafu, the head of Yuelin Academy. This person is also white-browed and silver-haired.

When Xu Rentao saw the head of his academy coming here, he seemed to be emboldened. He immediately avoided Xue Pan's attack with the help of the people around him, ran to the side, and said aggrievedly,

"Shan Zhang, you are here. This person is too domineering. He didn't even give money. He came here to occupy a seat without an invitation. The disciple couldn't see it and said a few words to him. How could he know that this person is strong enough to beat people? Look at the disciples being beaten."

After speaking, he pointed to himself, his face was swollen from the beating, and his eyes were slightly purple, tears were streaming down his face.

Hearing Xu Rentao confuse black and white, everyone around looked contemptuous, Xue Pan was even more furious, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and cursed,

"Fuck your mother, I'm talking to the people in the brothel here, you insulted my sister by insulting me, the surname Xu, this matter is endless."

"Tch, who is afraid of you, Xue Da fool."

Xu Rentao was not afraid of being settled in a poor house, so he pushed back.

Cheng Yafu, the head of the mountain, naturally knew his disciple's temperament, and he was still from a family of officials. That idiot Xue was also a member of the Xue family in Jinling.

Thinking of this, he comforted him;

"Young Master Xue, look, you both beat each other up, and you are both at fault in this matter, so let's end it today."

I thought that my own consolation would make these young masters calm down, but when I thought of Zhuang Xiaoyi, I stopped him first;
"This can't be done, Shanzhang, Xue Pan beat people first, and cursed people first. It's better to report this matter to the officials. It can't be settled like this. Moreover, the smashing here must be premeditated. It is better to report to the officials and let the magistrate Come on, I don't know if Mr. Xue can escape this time."

Xue Pan's heart turned cold, his case had not been over for a long time, and he still had to report to the police.
"Hmph, I'm afraid you won't dare!"

The head of the mountain also knew in his heart that maybe someone was going to move the Xue family behind his back, or test the other families behind him, so it was not easy to participate, so he nodded;
"Okay, you can report to the officials to solve it, the old man will not participate."

Cheng Yafu wanted to leave when he saw something was wrong, but who knew where Xu Rentao would be, so he shouted;
"Shan Zhang, you can't leave. You can't ignore the gangsters who are so rampant here. Besides, you are here to witness,"

Cheng Yafu heard what Mr. Zhuang said in his heart, and confirmed what he thought in his heart. Today was pre-set. Before he could speak, he saw Jiang Chunyue standing up from behind and said;

"Shan Zhang, I can understand what happened today. Mr. Xu made a slip of the tongue first, and there are some loose words. This is not taught in the academy."

Cheng Yafu also looked back, and saw a thin middle-aged man with guards behind him. His face looked familiar. Isn't this the salt merchant Jiang Chunyue from Suzhou? What's going on, after thinking about it for a while, I got dizzy and troublesome.

Before I could think about what to say, I saw some people coming outside, and Si Yuan, the head of Yiyong Academy, came in with his disciples, and said angrily;
"What kind of speech is wrong, I think it was planted by members of the Xue family. Besides, this person is full of foul language and has no rules. How can the family be okay? If you don't take this person down quickly, report it to the official,"

After finishing speaking, many thugs appeared around and surrounded him.

Suddenly from the stairs on the second floor,

There was a sneer,
"Tsk tsk, it's really eye-opening. It's the first time Zhang has seen such a sanctimonious thing. I admire it, Shan Zhang. It's better to be good at it. There is no one with that mouth."

Zhang Jinyu's voice also came from the stairs on the second floor, which attracted the approval of many benefactors on the first floor, and many people looked over with contempt, all of them were sanctimonious masters.

Si Yuan also darkened his face, looked at the people around who were watching the joke, and said unkindly;
"Whoever talks like this again is not afraid that Feng Da will flash his tongue!"

The last few words also accentuated the voice, with a vaguely threatening look.

"Oh, old man, tell me how strong the wind is to make your tongue flicker. Mr. Zhang doesn't quite believe it. Come and try it. It will open your eyes and give us a better understanding. I think the head of the mountain can explain it to us."

As soon as the words were finished, Zhang Jinyu led the people down the stairs. Looking at the mess on the first floor, the tea bowls and wine pots on the table, stools and chairs were all scattered all over the floor. She also shook her head. Fighting is such a waste.

"Who are you, don't interfere indiscriminately, and don't regret it when the time comes."

Looking at the person who came down, there are a large number of guards behind him, so young, I don't know whose family's son it is.

Si Yuan was uncertain for a while, and just tried to speak out.

Zhang Jinyu went directly to the high platform, pulled a chair and sat down, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation.

Directly flushing Si Yuanze's face red with anger, Mr. Gui also stood up and shouted loudly;

"Who are you, don't look at where this is, you can manage it, I know you."

Zhang Jinyu's face turned cold, and the guards behind him saw him, how could he resist such a lowly person insulting Lord Hou.

Immediately drew out the scimitar, jumped directly off the high platform, grabbed the turtle man's hair and pulled it over, who knew that the thugs would come to snatch him when they saw him, but who knew that the guards swung the knife directly, and the two of them fell down in pain clutching their necks After a few twitches, there was no movement, and the people around were immediately shocked.

Carrying Mr. Gui to the seat of Lord Hou, the guards pressed Mr. Gui's head heavily on the high platform, Zhang Jinyu leaned down and said lightly;
"When Zhang is talking, it is taboo for others to intervene. How do you say you want to die?"

Mr. Gui was so frightened that his face turned pale and he hesitated and couldn't speak, while Si Yuan was terrified, but how could he be afraid of him?

"Young master, is there any law to kill people like this? You are not afraid of the government."

Zhang Jinyu raised his head and looked over with a bad expression, and said;

"Seeing how old you are, let's forget it this time. As I said, when I am most taboo to speak, I am interrupted by someone, but I understand that this is only one time for the old man."

Si Yuanze wanted to say more, but felt a little uneasy in his heart, and finally held back, wondering why the people from the yamen haven't come yet.

And Ximian Gong Huaiyu was also heartbroken, just a trivial matter, why in the brothel, unknown people jumped in one after another, they all reached the level of Jiangnan's political history, what is behind it, and who is this person.

Zhang Jinyu stepped on Mr. Turtle's face and asked,
"Or tell me, why did you ask him to pay 5 taels of silver to buy a seat? Let's talk after thinking about it,"

After Zhang Jinyu finished speaking, she looked at Mother Yun again.

"Ask you, why don't you let him sit here?"

When Mother Yun saw that it was the young master making the inquiry, she felt chills. President Su was even more disturbed to accompany him with his head bowed at the end. Mother Yun replied tremblingly;

"Back to Mr. Yung, what Yunniang said before is true. She just wanted Mr. Xue to leave this position, so she offered a high price to make Mr. Xue quit. How did you know that person paid for it? As for why he said he wanted 5 yuan?" I don't know about two silver coins."

"Well, it is."

Zhang Jinyu thought for a while, but it was credible, stepped on the turtle on the ground, and asked again;

"Tell me, what about you?"

"My lord, I thought so too."

Zhang Jinyu's face was ugly;
"You are toasting and not eating fine wine. 1000 taels and 5 taels actually think the same thing. Duan Hong, come and ask."

"Yes, master, how can I bother you."

Duan Hong came directly over, took out the short blade without any nonsense, directly picked up the arm of Mr. Gui, put it on the high platform and pressed it,

"What are you doing, let me go."

"what!"

With a scream, the faces of the people around turned pale. It turned out that Duan Hong directly nailed the short blade through the palm of Mr. Gui to the high platform. Mr. Gui retreated when he felt pain, and the blade continued to cut and let out blood. , the painful Gui Gong screamed again and again, so frightened that Liu Rulan couldn't help backing away.

Si Yuanze also didn't expect these people to be so bold and reckless. They dared to do such a bloody method in public.

Gong Huaiyu also shrank his pupils slightly, how could this technique and ruthlessness be like those of his father's subordinates? He was quick, precise and ruthless, not procrastinating at all, and those guards didn't even change their appearance, they were really killing people Don't blink.

"Let's go on, who gave you instructions, or who told you, if you say this, you can save your life if you say it right."

Zhang Jinyu looked at Mr. Gui, who was breathing air-conditioning on the ground, and said in a pleasant manner. Mr. Gui's face was getting paler and paler at this time, and his nose and tears were streaming down. He cried and said,

"My lord, my lord, someone gave it to the villain. I gave the villain 1000 taels of silver notes. I want the villain to be careful when people from the Xue family come here, and they will make things difficult for him."

"Oh, so who is this person?"

Zhang Jinyu was also stunned, it was prepared in advance.

"Yes, a disciple of Yuelin Academy came here to explain to the villain."

Mr. Gui replied there in fear, he couldn't think of anything else.

"Then do you recognize this person?"

Zhang Jinyu asked and looked towards the academy disciples to the east.

Mr. Gui couldn't help nodding his head in pain, and shouted,

"I know it, I know it, it's inside, the villain only went after receiving his orders."

"Come here, help him up and identify him."

"Yes, son."

The personal guard walked over and pulled out the short blade directly, blood spurted out suddenly, and there was another scream, Mr. Gui immediately tore off his skirt and wrapped it around his hands to stop the bleeding. After wrapping it up, he stood up tremblingly and then walked east .
