The woman still kept crying: "Although our family is poor, we are still a decent family. It is so humiliating. I have to risk my life to seek justice for my daughter. The Marquis is rich and powerful, and he does whatever he wants. Isn't he afraid of God's punishment?" ?"
The woman spoke excitedly, and the Marquis suddenly raised his eyes. His eyeballs were originally covered with a thin layer of white mist. At this time, their eyes shone like a torch. The woman was so shocked that she didn't dare to say anything.
"Go get her 200 taels of silver and ask her to leave immediately."
"Master Marquis, don't even think about using money to send me away. There must be an explanation for my daughter's matter today!" The woman jumped up and shouted.
The Marquis responded calmly: "Is it your daughter that your mind is as clear as a mirror, and I've paid twice as much as the person who hired you, and you're still not satisfied? Do you want me to send you to the official for investigation?"
When the woman heard this, she felt as if she had been bitten by a snake. She quickly took the money and ran away.
Qu Zhe let out a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, my father is wise and saw that she was a fake!"
The Marquis jumped up and yelled angrily: "She is a lie, but your scandal is absolutely true! At such a young age, you still imitate others who hide their beauty in a golden house? You have no sense of shame and serve according to the family law!"
The butler next to him hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him, "Master Marquis, you had an old illness last night. Don't get angry and hurt your body. The young Marquis is young and it is inevitable to have some romantic debts. I think that woman has a clean family background, so why not take her into the house and do it?" I’m a concubine and will settle this matter.”
Upon seeing this, Qu Zhe quickly got off the slope and kowtowed, "Father, I don't dare to do it anymore. Please spare me this time!"
Mr. Hou's anger subsided a little and he sat down again, "Then I will take that woman as my concubine according to the housekeeper's wishes. You must abide by your duties. If you dare to go out and cause trouble, be careful to break your dog legs!"
Nuonuo agreed, feeling secretly happy that today she could easily pass the test and avoid the physical pain, and she was also given the status of a beauty. The sky was really blessed by gods and Buddhas, and everyone was happy.
When he was secretly happy, the door to the main hall was knocked open, and two people rushed in, it was Qingtian and Que Xiu. The two men did not kneel down, but only bowed their hands to the Marquis as a gift, and repeatedly complained about their injustice.
When the Marquis saw the two servants dressed up, he didn't know what they meant. He turned around and asked the butler with his eyes. Seeing that these two idiots were going to take advantage of the situation and add insult to injury, Qu Zhe quickly scolded them: "Two unruly slaves dare to rush into the Marquis, drag them out quickly."
Qingtian was the first to speak: "Master Hou, our brothers are not slaves. Because we were in trouble, we were forcibly rejected as slaves by the young master and humiliated in every possible way. Please make the decision, Master Hou!"
Qu Zhe secretly complained, seeing that today's fate was inevitable. Sure enough, his father's eyes were as bright as lightning, and he was so frightened that he knelt down again, as if he was just asking for it.
Que Xiu gritted his teeth and said: "Young Master is used to being arrogant and domineering. When he saw my brother in trouble, he couldn't help but put a collar on him, put a rope on him, and treated him like a cow or a horse. He humiliated him wantonly. It's really lawless and makes people's teeth chill!"
The Marquis was extremely angry again and pointed with his finger: "I taught you to read the books of saints and sages since you were a child, to follow the rules and put kindness first. Who knew that you bully men and dominate women, and do all kinds of evil? I will teach you a lesson today!"
Ji Ji was dragged out, and then there was the sound of sticks, mixed with his howling, which was very sad. Que Xiu felt happy, and the resentment accumulated in his chest dissipated instantly.
The Marquis stood up and offered his hands to the two of them, "My child is naughty and has made you suffer. I will try my best to compensate you."
Qingtian returned the greeting, "My two brothers are in trouble here and have no one to rely on. They just want to settle down in the house and find a job to make a living. Please help me, Lord Marquis!"
"It's easy to talk to. If you two don't dislike it, you can stay in the house first. I will treat you with courtesy and make up for it!"
When I came out of the main hall, I saw a board propped up next to the rockery, and I was lying on it. The servant behind me was swinging the stick hard, making a crisp sound, but there was no pain expression on his face, and even his shouts were fake. When he saw Qingtian and Que Xiu coming out, he gave a disdainful look, as if to say: "Young Master, I feel very comfortable, let's see!"
Que Xiu was full of wine and food, and stretched out contentedly. This west side courtyard is quiet and quiet, with small bridges and flowing water, and pleasant scenery.
"What a wonderful move you made. We got rid of that abominable playboy. We are free and happy."
Qingtian frowned, "I'm still thinking about that old Marquis. His eyeballs are completely white. He's clearly blind. Why can he move freely without any lag?"
"You're just making a wild guess. Maybe I'm born with a strange appearance!"
"But there is a mysterious aura about him that makes people unable to guess!"
While the two were talking, a young man in brocade clothes walked around the rockery and walked toward them.
"I am the consecutive winner. I am a diner in my house. May I ask who you two are?"
As soon as Qingtian heard about the diners, he knew that they were lazy, sycophantic people, and he felt disgusted. Upon seeing this, Que Xiu hurriedly returned the gift and announced their names, but of course withheld Murong's surname.
"These two young talents must be proficient in magic and martial arts. They have a bright future!"
Seeing that this person was quite polite, Que Xiu casually said a few perfunctory words. But Qingtian was impatient and sarcastically said: "Eaters, diners, just eat every day and have nothing to do. It's quite comfortable when you think about it!"
Liang Guan blushed and said, "I am really ashamed to say that I have been in the Marquis's house for more than a year and have not made any achievements. I really can't sleep or eat well. If it comes to a critical moment, I will risk my life to repay the Marquis for his kindness!"
Seeing his boastful words, Qingtian was even more disgusted and turned around to leave. Lian Guan had a mysterious look on his face and said in a low voice: "To tell you the truth, my martial arts power is so high that it is difficult to find an opponent in this world. Please don't tell others."
Que Xiu saw that this man was very interested in boasting and boasting, so he took advantage of the situation and asked: "How high is my skill? Tell me and let me know more."
"Have you heard of the two peerless young masters twenty years ago, known as 'Nan Xuan Bei Miao'? My skills are comparable to those of them."
Que Xiu had never heard of these two people's names and couldn't answer the question for a while. Qingtian next to him suddenly interjected: "I only heard that 'Nan Xuan and Bei Miao are as good as Yue'. The only person who can match the skills of Prince Nan Xuan and Young Master Bei Miao Lai Wu is the current head of the Murong family, whose name is Ba Yue. Are you Senior Murong? ?”
He asked questions knowingly, but in fact he exposed the lie of consecutive championships. The guy's face was full of scorn, "Actually, my skill is still slightly different from that of Senior Murong, but only a little bit!"
Qingtian couldn't stand such a brazen and shameless person. He flicked his sleeves and entered the room, followed by Que Xiu.
"What is 'the mysteries of the south and the north are as wonderful as those of Yue'?"
"I heard from my senior brothers that two young peerless masters have emerged in the past twenty years: Prince Li Xuan and Lai Wu, known as 'Miao Gongzi'. They are from the south and the north, and their magic power and mind are the best in the world, enough to compare with my father. They They were all the legends of the time."
"What happened next?" Que Xiu asked hurriedly.
"Prince Nanxuan became world-weary due to marriage and hid in the world. It is said that he died of depression due to his unresolved infatuation. And Prince Miao Laiwu disappeared mysteriously and never appeared again."
Que Xiu was still satisfied after hearing this, and his thoughts were running wild.
