Fortunately, King Yan was a wise king. Apart from the land granted by the court and the shops given as rewards, he did not interfere in other businesses and did not compete with the people for profit. Otherwise, there would be no way for the Qian family and the Li family to survive.
If the current emperor of Zhao had been King Yan, the current situation might not have happened. It was precisely because of this that King Yan was so fearful after the new king ascended the throne.
Today's King Zhao is also Zhao Lei's enemy in a sense, the enemy who destroyed his family.
…
It was different now that there was an acquaintance leading the way. Zhao Lei followed Wu Zhong and soon arrived at the entrance of a small courtyard.
Compared with Wu Zhong's house, this courtyard is completely different.
Wu Zhong came outside Duan Yong's yard, pulled the knocker on the door and knocked twice, shouting while knocking.
Although it was getting dark now, it was not time to take a rest. After two knocks on the door, footsteps were heard in the yard.
"Who is it? It's late at night."
"I'm the boss, Wu Zhong! An acquaintance came to see you, and he happened to meet me, so I brought him here."
Wu Zhong hid the situation that Zhao Lei broke into his home privately.
Little people have their own little wisdom. Along the way, Wu Zhong gradually understood that Zhao Lei might not be Duan Yong's acquaintance, but his enemy.
Because Zhao Lei was asking him about Duan Yong's situation and interpersonal relationships along the way, and was always trying to find out what Duan Yong was like.
Wu Zhong, who was walking in front of Zhao Lei, although he did not look back, felt the vague murderous aura behind him.
This is where you come to seek revenge!
Even though Zhao Lei was very skilled in martial arts, he still acted like a desperado if he dared to come to Duan Yong alone to seek revenge.
Wu Zhong felt that he was just a small soldier, just working under Duan Yong for the time being, and there was no need to tie him up again.
As long as there is food to eat, it won't be the same no matter where you live. You may not be able to live well, but at least you will still be alive.
So when Wu Zhong knocked on the door, he did not tell Duan Yong the truth.
After Zhao Lei heard Wu Zhong's words, he couldn't help but glance at him. Sure enough, no one who survives in troubled times can be easily fooled.
But this doesn't change anything.
Duan Yong in the yard heard a familiar voice, it was indeed Wu Zhong. He didn't think much after hearing that an acquaintance was looking for him.
The security of this West Street is very good, there are often police patrols, and the surrounding area is full of rich and powerful people.
These people generally have servants in their homes, and few people come here to look for trouble without being discerning.
Duan Yong just got connected with the county magistrate, otherwise he wouldn't be able to move into this small courtyard.
After Duan Yong opened the courtyard door, what he saw was a face with sunken cheekbones, a face full of flattery, and full of weather.
"You birdie!"
After scolding Wu Zhong, he looked around and saw no one else except the mud-legged guy following Wu Zhong.
This mud-legged man was also carrying a basket made of vines. He was as rustic as a country bumpkin.
"Wu Laosan, where is my acquaintance! You are such a bird, aren't you?"
"Master Duan, how dare I disturb your rest for no reason? It is indeed an acquaintance of yours who came to find you, and he happened to meet me. He didn't know where your home is, so I brought him here."
"it's him?"
Duan Yong didn't care about Zhao Lei at all, and his words were full of ridicule. Although Zhao Lei's face was covered with black cloth, he didn't care at all because of his strength and status.
Duan Yong also looked at Wu Zhong with the same look. Relying on his relationship with his cousin, he always kept his eyes on the top, fawning over his superiors and bullying his subordinates.
Seeing Duan Yong like this, although Wu Zhong was fine on the surface, he was also very angry inside.
It's not like Wu Zhong didn't know what he was like before. He was just walking around in East Street, eating one meal but not finishing one.
If his cousin, who worked as a maid in a wealthy family, hadn't been attracted by the county magistrate, he wouldn't be where he is now.
Wu Zhong saw it, but the dissatisfaction in his heart did not show.
It depends on when you finish!
Wu Zhong couldn't help but feel comfortable hiding the truth from himself.
When this dragon crossing the river puts the knife on your neck, let's see if you still have your eyes high and are you still not so snobbish.
Wu Zhong thought that he had brought Zhao Lei to Duan Yong, and it was time for him to find a chance to run away, so as not to accidentally get himself involved.
Duan Yong's behavior made Zhao Lei sick.
"It seems that Mr. Duan has forgotten things a lot. He only met him last month and now he doesn't know him."
As a matter of fact, Zhao Lei took off the black cloth from his face.
Duan Yong looked at Zhao Lei who had taken off the black mask, but he still had no impression at all.
The current Zhao Lei has indeed changed a lot from before. Even if his biological father is standing in front of him now, he may have to recognize him for a long time.
Duan Yong looked at Zhao Lei, whose clothes did not match his handsome face, and he couldn't help but feel a little different. Logically speaking, he should be impressed by someone with this kind of appearance.
But the fact is that Duan Yong really doesn't know the person in front of him.
"Wu Laosan, it's not some guy who says he knows me, he's an acquaintance of mine. After all, I'm different now from before. There are always some people who want to hook up with me just because they said a few words to me before. Relationship."
Ah!
Zhao Lei looked at Duan Yong with a sneer on his face, as if he was looking at a clown.
Duan Yong was irritated by Zhao Lei's ridicule. He was impatient if he dared to laugh at himself like this.
Duan Yong was a poor man who suddenly became rich. He had a low self-esteem, flattered his superiors and bullied his subordinates, and could not bear the slightest stimulation.
Zhao Lei's smile had already stimulated him. Once he was unhappy in East Street, and later he went to lead horses for others. The humiliation and ridicule he suffered during this process made his heart twisted.
Duan Yong couldn't bear it anymore. There was no one on the street at night, so he no longer cared about anything. He opened his right hand as big as a cattail leaf fan and grabbed Zhao Lei.
Duan Yong planned to drag Zhao Lei into the yard and then slowly manipulate him. It would not be good to be seen by others here. This place is not East Street, so it is better to keep a low profile.
Duan Yong's movements were very fast, but in Zhao Lei's eyes they were extremely slow, as if his movements were split up.
When Zhao Lei faced Duan Yong's grasping palm, he didn't even bother to dodge. He relied on his own martial arts without using magic. He could hit ten like Duan Yong.
He kicked forward so fast that Duan Yong couldn't react at all. Then he saw a black shadow passing by, and Duan Yong flew back into the yard at a faster speed.
Duan Yong was kicked ten meters away and fell directly into the house with a loud clang.
"Should I invite you in, or should you go in yourself?"
Wu Zhong, who was extremely shocked by Zhao Lei's skills, was brought back to reality by Zhao Lei's words before he could start running away.
He did not expect that Duan Yong could not survive even one round in Zhao Lei's hands.
Zhao Lei was actually able to kick a man weighing one to two hundred kilograms away more than ten meters.
Although Duan Yong is a villain, his skills are indeed good. He is the best among Wu Zhong's group, otherwise he would not be so arrogant.
Arrogance also requires capital!
