Ji Han Liu Zhang

Chapter 15 Anger
Liu Zhang took long strides, and Caiwei beside him had to trot to keep up.

Along the way, Caiwei told the story in detail. First, Li Da, the deputy head of the palace, conveyed Liu Mao's order to ask Aunt Wang for a singer. Aunt Wang used Liu Zhang's order to shirk her, and then Aunt Wang was killed by Liu Zhang. Mao summoned him, but if he disagreed, he was punished fifty times with a cane.

Liu Zhang was like a mirror in his heart. He probably guessed the key to the problem. Li Da, the person who passed the news in the middle, probably added fuel to the fire.

His brother Liu Mao used to think that the position of Yizhou Shepherd belonged to him, so he always pretended to be a dear, loving, courteous and virtuous corporal, and he was not very harsh on the servants' mistakes.

Although now he has lost the hope of Yizhou Shepherd, his true nature has been exposed, and he is very harsh on the servants around him, beating or scolding him. However, he still has some of the tolerant habits of the past. I am afraid that he will not be provoked by others when it comes to beating an old woman with a stick. Can't do it.

Li Da was always restless and always wanted to climb up. For this reason, he clung to his elder brother Liu Mao. Relying on Liu Mao's authority, he was disrespectful to his predecessor. However, his predecessor was soft-tempered and did not care. After Liu Zhang became the shepherd of Yizhou, Li Da lost his power and could be more at ease. However, he did not want to instigate such an incident today.

It's time to clean up the prefectural pastor's house, Liu Zhang thought to himself. Only after cleaning the house can we treat guests.

Not long after, Liu Zhang stepped into the courtyard where Liu Hao was. Looking at the ash stick raised high and Aunt Wang lying on the stool, who seemed to be motionless, he shouted: "Stop."

Zhang San and Li Si stopped in embarrassment. When they saw Liu Zhang arriving, they immediately fell to the ground. They were best friends of deputy chief Li Da, but their identities were still slaves. The person in front of them was the new Yizhou Shepherd, a presence they could not ignore. , if something happened, Liu Mao would protect Li Da, but not both of them.

Caiwei immediately ran out, reached Aunt Wang, checked the situation, and gently called Aunt Wang's mother in her ear, but there was no response.

Liu Zhang also stepped forward, walked to the other side, picked up Aunt Wang's right hand, and felt the pulse. He was not a good doctor, but a good doctor. His predecessor had studied medicine and had experience in this field.

I only feel that my pulse is almost non-existent, and the old and frail person is already dying after dozens of sticks have been applied.

Aunt Wang seemed to have heard Caiwei's call. The almost pulseless person opened her eyes and looked at Caiwei who was overflowing with tears. She forced a kind smile and wanted to reach out and wipe away the tears on Caiwei's face. , the decaying hand reached halfway, but then hung down weakly, and his eyes were closed.

The pulse was gone, and Liu Zhang felt that Aunt Wang had just had a flashback, and now she was dead.

"Hey, Ji Yu is here, come in quickly, you and I can have a drink together." Liu Hao heard the commotion and walked out accompanied by Li Da.

Liu Zhang did not respond. He stared blankly at Aunt Wang who died with a kind expression. Caiwei beside him seemed to have noticed it, with tears on his face, but he did not dare to make a sound in his throat.

"Brother, I know that Aunt Wang is dead." After a while, Liu Zhang calmly announced the death of Aunt Wang.

"Hiccup." Liu Hao burped from wine and didn't take it seriously: "If you die, you will die. This bastard really doesn't need a beating."

Liu Zhang's expression did not change. The angrier he became, the calmer he became.

Behind him, Gan Ning and Gan Jiu both had angry expressions on their faces.

Gan Ning saw in front of him that Aunt Wang, who was the same age as his mother, was blamed to death and had to endure the humiliation of Liu Mao. He felt angry in his heart. As a ranger, he hated people who bullied women and children.

Gan Jiu was angry because his mother was born as a slave. He felt the same way and hated the master's wanton harm to his slaves. When he was a child, he often saw his mother being bullied by his master, and he couldn't help but clenched his fists at this moment.

"I wonder what Aunt Wang has committed." Liu Zhang questioned his good brother Liu Hao and asked about the reason.

Liu Mao took advantage of the wine and his anger was still lingering, and blurted out: "How dare this wretched maid look down upon me and asked her for a few singing girls, but she refused to give them to her. She also said that she would only give them to Ji Yu if you wanted her. I, Liu If you are not worthy, my noble son, should I be humiliated by a slave?"

"Brother, don't you know what Aunt Wang is like? She is an honest person. How could she do the following criminal things and say such rebellious words?" Liu Zhang affirmed Aunt Wang's character, and then asked sternly: "Li Da, how did you deliver the message?"

Looking at Liu Zhang who was staring straight at him, Li Da couldn't help but sweat dripping down from his head, all along his plump face. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and replied tremblingly: "Your Majesty, what Li Da said is true. The words are not fictitious.”

"Really?" Liu Zhang showed a disdainful expression and shouted: "You, you, slandered others in front of my brother, sow trouble, and caused Aunt Wang's death." "You really deserve to die!"

Liu Hao probably guessed something at this time. Li Da might have adulterated Aunt Wang's words, but he couldn't give in under the current situation, otherwise his status in the government would plummet and he would be overwhelmed by his cowardly brother.

He defended Li Da: "Ji Yu, although Li Da's message is somewhat inaccurate, it is still the truth. This bastard did not take this young master in her eyes, and she made some mistakes."

Liu Zhang did not take Liu Hao's words, but his tone turned gentle and asked Li Da: "Li Da, do you know Emperor Guangwu?"

He threw out a hook and waited for the fish to take the bait.

Li Da replied immediately, this time in a calmer tone: "I know, I know, the villain has read a little bit of books. Emperor Guangwu revived the Han Dynasty. He has both political integrity and talent, both civil and military skills, and is brave and fearless."

Li Da emphasized the words "brave and fearless" and raised his voice a bit higher. Relying on Liu Hao's words to protect him, he was now fearless and no longer afraid of Liu Zhang. He even dared to carry a gun while speaking. Bravo.

Liu Zhang knew what Li Da meant, and he understood the importance. It was a mockery of his weakness, but he was not interested in playing this kind of word game with Li Da. He shook his head and said, "These are certainly the outstanding qualities of Emperor Guangwu." But the most important thing about Emperor Guangwu is that he loves his people like a son and is generous and kind."

His next words were full of anger: "Did you know that Emperor Guangwu issued an edict?"

"Those who kill slaves will not be punished."

"Your life is worth one life today."

Liu Zhang took off the sword from his waist, handed it to Gan Ning, pointed at Li Da, and ordered: "Xingba, kill this beast with me."

Gan Ning took the sword and responded generously: "Promise." Then he looked at Gan Jiu. Gan Jiu understood and stepped forward to pull Li Da to the ground. He grabbed Li Da's hands with both hands and stepped heavily on Li Da. Li Da's back made Li Da straighten his whole body and expose his head.

Li Da wanted to break free, but Gan Jiu's hands seemed to have great strength, preventing him from moving. He turned to look at Liu Zhang and wanted to plead, but Liu Zhang looked up at the floating clouds in the sky, thoughtfully.He immediately turned to Liu Hao and screamed like a butchering pig: "Third Young Master, save..."

Before Li Da could finish speaking, Gan Ning pulled out his sword with a loud sound and swung it down without hesitation. Li Da's head with a frightened expression ejected and rolled several times on the ground. A stream of thick hot blood also flowed from his head. The broken part splashed out and scattered all over the ground.

However, within a few breaths, Li Da, the deputy director of the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion, lost his life and turned into a piece of stiff meat with no voice.Gan Jiu let go of his holding hands, and the headless body lost its traction and fell to the ground with a plop.

Liu Zhang then lowered his head, but he did not look at Li Da's body. Instead, he squinted his eyes and stared straight at Liu Hao, with an expressionless face and an arc at the corner of his mouth.

Liu Hao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, faced Li Da's flying head, took a few steps back, unsteady steps, and fell heavily to the ground, saying in panic: "Ji Yu, you, you ….”

Is this still his cowardly and incompetent brother? He was so decisive in killing people in front of him. Li Da's head rolled right in front of Liu Hao, and he was faced with Li Da's fearful and frightened expression before he died. Liu Hao was shocked. I was frightened, sweating profusely, and I didn’t know where the drunkenness had gone.

Liu Zhang looked at Liu Hao sitting on the ground and commented in his heart.

Violent and cowardly trash.
