There was a confrontation outside the pavilion, and the person in charge did not dare to leave. Several injured thugs slowly crawled back, leaving only one body in the middle of the ground.
Over there, Zhou Chu said to Wu Xiaodao: "Just watch from here. I'll go inside and report to the Young Master."
Wu Xiaodao nodded, Zhou Chu glanced at the opposite side and said hehe, "If anyone dares to rush forward, don't hold back. It's a grave sin to startle the young master!"
The steward couldn't help but tremble when he heard his words. He thought this was really crazy. It wasn't the gangs outside fighting for territory and really killing each other, but the yamen were jealous and broke some rules. Who gave you the courage to kill someone as a guard!
This matter can no longer be justified. We don’t care how the officials in the pavilion over there are suffering. The people dying in front of us are people from Fanlou. No matter how arrogant the people in the pavilion here are, if they beat people to death in full view of the public, there must be an excuse in the end. Bar?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the bearded guard reaching out to lift Chen Yanei on the ground, and he couldn't help but asked in shock: "You, what are you going to do?"
Zhou Chu sneered, ignored him at all, and carried Chen Yanei to the pavilion.
The steward immediately panicked. He didn't know that there was a Wu Yanei in the pavilion, but he just felt something was wrong. Seeing the boldness of these guards, the owner must be unreasonable.
Chen Yanei would never get any good results if he was brought in. He would be beaten if he didn't want to, or even beaten to death inside.
He was so anxious that he hurriedly ordered to those around him: "Go, hurry up and report to the big boss, just say that the young master has been arrested."
Zhou Chu didn't care about him at this time. He carried the person into the attic and then beat him hard on the ground.
Zhao Tong asked curiously: "Which one is this?"
Zhou Chu glanced at the frightened female courtesans and said with a smile: "Master, this is the son of Chen Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He is very rude. I thought that since Wu Yamen is here, I would like to capture him and make him a companion." ”
Zhao Tong nodded: "I have heard of Shilang Chen's son before. He seems to have a good relationship with Gao Qiu's son, and his reputation is not very good."
Chen Yanei on the ground woke up at this moment. He had drunk too much, so he hit Zhou Chu with a stick but failed to hit him. He fell to the ground and fell asleep, but now he was woken up by Zhou Chu.
He vaguely heard someone talking about Chen Shilang, and immediately shouted: "That's my dad. If you want to see my dad, you have to pass this pass first. You can't pass this pass without a gift!"
Zhao Tong frowned when he heard this. He didn't know what to say for a moment. The court had been corrupted to the point of hopelessness. These yamen were the best proof. They usually bullied men and dominated women, but also interfered in court affairs. It is not uncommon to receive bribes.
As Chen Yanei was talking, he was about to get up. He found that something was not right. Why did he seem to have slept at home, and then when he opened his eyes, he was replaced by an unfamiliar pavilion.
He looked around in confusion at the people around him, and saw Zhao Yuannu sitting next to Zhao Yu. He suddenly realized what he was doing, pointed at Zhao Yuannu and said: "You little prodigal, you actually came here to steal something." , I am so easy to find, Mr. Geng!”
As he said that, he looked at Zhao Tong again, rubbed his eyes and looked carefully, but he didn't recognize him.
Zhao Tong had not interacted with these yamen since he was a child, and he almost never attended banquets after he went out to open a mansion, so most of the yamen in the capital had never seen him.
If Zhao Kai were here instead, many yamen would recognize him, because Zhao Kai likes to be lively and lively like the Taoist emperor. He not only eats banquets everywhere, but also holds banquets at his own house, and entertains them every three or five days, so whether it is courtiers or yamen , or even scholars, most of them recognized him.
Chen Yamen didn't know Zhao Tong and said angrily: "Where does this pretty boy come from? He dares to stir up trouble with Tai Sui, why not..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhou Chu slapped him in the face. He was already staggering about to stand up, but was knocked to the ground again.
Chen Yanei drank a little too much and didn't see clearly who was beating him. He lay on the ground and shouted "Ouch, ouch, ouch": "Which bird dares to hit grandpa?"
Zhou Chu kicked me again and said, "If you speak rudely, if you scream again, I will cut off your tongue."
This kick hit Chen Yanei's soft ribs. It couldn't be said to be too hard, but since it was called a soft rib, even if he drank too much and his body was numb, he immediately felt pain and howled: "You don't want to live anymore, my father is the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs !”
When Zhao Tong saw this, he snorted, and Zhou Chu pulled out the Yan Fei Dao with a bang. The bright blade flashed, frightening the woman in the room to scream. Zhao Yuannu turned pale and said: "Master, this... "
Zhou Chu took a knife and slapped Chen Yanei on the face. Chen Yanei was half awake and recognized that this was the man who hit him just now. Now he took the knife again, not knowing what he wanted to do.
Zhou Chudao: "You have made my young master unhappy. If you dare to say another word, whether it is the son of your minister or the grandson of the minister, I will first cut off your tongue and then your nose. I will cut you into a human stick and throw you downstairs. Let your minister I don’t even recognize it when I see it!”
"Ah..." Chen Yanei's ribs were still hurting at this time, and he felt the cold light of the knife. Even his hair stood on end. He was so scared that he piled up and could no longer say a word.
Zhao Tong said calmly: "Leave it over there and stand there!"
Zhou Chu immediately carried Chen Yanei to the wall and sneered: "Stand still, otherwise you will turn into a stick!"
Chen Yanei did not dare to say anything, but at a glance he saw Wu Yanei standing against the wall with a bruised nose and a swollen face.
He was wondering why the other party was here, but he saw Wu Yanei keep giving him winks. The two had been hanging out together for a long time, and they were familiar with each other's little moves. After understanding the other party's meaning, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly imitated Wu Yanei and pressed against the wall. Stand still.
Zhou Chu walked back to the front, reported the situation outside the pavilion to Zhao Tong, and then said: "Sir, I accidentally killed someone during the fight..."
As soon as he said this, the women in the cabinet immediately panicked. Murder was a big deal, especially in Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo. It was a serious matter at the feet of the emperor.
Zhao Yuannu grabbed the corner of Zhao Tong's clothes tightly: "Master, what should I do?"
Zhao Tong said expressionlessly: "Who died?"
Zhou Chu said: "It's Fan Lou's thug. He was stabbed by Wu Xiaodao during the chaos. Unexpectedly, it was a critical wound."
"Ah!" Hearing that someone from Fan Lou was dead, the women in the house were even more frightened. Although these female actresses were well-dressed, in fact, except for the courtesans and famous ladies, the rest had no status in the building. They were selling themselves. To Fan Lou, who was usually under supervision again, when he heard that the guest actually killed the thugs in the building, everyone was trembling with fear.
Zhao Tong looked at the women, and then at Zhao Yuannu, who was curled up next to him like a kitten, and said calmly: "Kill him, kill him, and kill him if he disturbs her again!"
As soon as these words came out, all the women were dumbfounded. Mei Niang's throat rolled with "oooo" twice, and she fainted directly.
Zhao Yuannu held Zhao Tong's arm tightly, trembling all over and not daring to speak.
Zhou Chu said again: "Master, what if Kaifeng Mansion... or someone from the court comes?"
Zhao Tong said: "If they come, just bring them into the pavilion."
Zhou Chu took the order and turned around to go out.
The women in the room were as silent as a cicada at the moment. Zhao Tong glanced at them and said with a smile: "Everyone is in a daze, why don't you just play a song and listen to it!"
