The person in the carriage was indeed Zhang Jingrui.
As a second-rank minister, he would naturally not be on the street, because such trivial matters are as common as others.
However, the coachman looked a little angry. While driving the carriage again, he couldn't help but said: "Master, these young men are too arrogant. What happened just now, they only need to turn their bodies slightly to the side, but they insist on doing it." It makes no sense for us to turn around."
"Huh? It's just a trivial matter, don't worry about it." Zhang Jingrui said first, and then couldn't help but feel curious: "By the way, who are those people? The servants brought quite a few of them to the street."
"I don't know, but I heard recently that some ministers' sons often go together, led by the eldest son of Zhao, and behave tyrannically..."
"Oh? Mr. Zhao?" Zhang Jingrui frowned slightly when he heard this, but he didn't pay much attention to it, so he changed the subject and said, "Let's go back home."
"yes."
the other side.
After the minor incident, Zhao Peng didn't take it seriously at all, so he went to have fun with everyone and went to the famous brothel in Qinzhou, Zuihonglou.
These dandy boys, based on their family background, are undoubtedly arrogant and domineering.
As soon as he came in, at the signal, a servant shouted: "My young master has reserved the venue today, everyone, please leave quickly!"
There was singing and dancing in the building, but this voice immediately silenced the scene.
The singer stopped dancing, and the guests all looked at her in surprise.
The proprietress also hurriedly came forward, put on heavy makeup, and said with a sweet smile: "Hey! The distinguished guests are here, please come upstairs quickly."
"Didn't you hear what I just said? Today we are drunk in the Red Mansion, and our brother has a lot of money."
Several people stood there without moving, and the proprietress suddenly looked embarrassed: "Here, these gentlemen..."
"Just ask the price for how much gold and silver you need." Zhao Peng interrupted her directly.
Hearing this, the landlady's eyes immediately lit up again. Just as she was about to say something, Zhao Peng glanced around and said, "However, there are a lot of people waiting. Please let the landlady let them go. Don't ruin the interest of our brothers." ."
"This... I'll try my best, I'll try my best. Gentlemen, wait a moment." The landlady responded with a smile on her face, and then started walking around, talking and discussing with the guests.
But soon, a customer got angry and said angrily: "Lady boss! You open the door to do business! There is no reason to kick the customer out midway!"
"Here, sir, please calm down, a big shot is here..." the landlady explained.
"What a bullshit big shot! I won't leave today!" The guest was furious.
His voice was very loud, and when it reached Zhao Peng, the faces of several dudes sank, and then Yan Ming's son said, "Get out of here! You talk a lot of nonsense! Don't know what is good and what is good!"
As soon as these words came out, the guest couldn't bear it and immediately yelled: "Where are these wild boys from! How dare they say such arrogant words!"
"Who are you calling a wild boy!?"
"I'm talking about you guys!"
"Damn it! Hit me! Kick all these people out!"
The two sides quarreled, and then came a fight.
There were quite a few servants brought by these dandies. With an order, a swarm of swarms came in. Without saying a word, they rushed up to grab a group of guests and beat them with fists and kicks. Then they worked in pairs and beat many of them. Throwed out of Zuihonglou.
The singers screamed and fled in all directions, tables and chairs overturned, and there was a chaos, mixed with sounds of begging for mercy and cursing.
The landlady came over in a panic: "Oh, gentlemen, you can't do this, you can't do this..."
"Get away!" Yan Ming's son pushed him casually without paying any attention.
Seeing this, the landlady had no choice. In desperation, she could only say to the servant: "Hurry, go and report to the official..."
The turmoil did not last long. How could ordinary guests beat so many servants? They soon fell to the ground and wailed.
This place was not far from the nearest government office. Not long after, the sound of a large number of soldiers running could be heard outside the building, surrounding the entire Zuihong Building.
Immediately afterwards, a man who looked like an officer strode in with a sword hanging on his waist.
The building was already in a mess. The officer first took a general glance, then stared at Zhao Peng and others, and asked in a cold voice: "Are you making trouble?"
At this time, as the soldiers arrived, all the servants restrained themselves, but they protected a few dudes.
A guest who was beaten with a bruised nose and face also covered his cheek, ran to the officer, pointed at Zhao Peng and others: "It's them! The villain came here to drink for no reason, but he was driven away and beaten! The adults must do it for the villain." People decide..."
After hearing what he said, the officer's face became even colder: "Are you bullying the shopkeepers!?"
"How!" The dandy asked instead, being arrogant and domineering.
The officer stopped talking nonsense and waved his hand directly: "Arrest them all!"
Following his order, a large number of soldiers quickly came forward to detain everyone.
But at the same time, Yan Ming's son also shouted loudly: "Who dares to see!?"
This sudden shout made the soldiers subconsciously pause.
The latter continued: "Blinded your dog eyes! Do you know who this is!"
As he spoke, he pointed at Zhao Peng: "Young master of the Zhao family, Madam Wang's biological brother!"
Then he pointed to another dude: "Nei Youshi, Mr. Zhou's son!"
"Master Zhong, Mr. Wei's son!"
"This young master is the son of Yan Ming, Minister of Rites! Let's see who dares to arrest us!"
ah! ? As soon as these words were said, all the soldiers were shocked and looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a while.
The officer also widened his eyes and stammered: "You, what did you say?"
"Do I need to repeat it again?" Yan Ming's son said angrily.
"This..." The officer couldn't help his Adam's apple sliding and swallowed.
These damn guys are all the sons of high-ranking officials, how can they be arrested?
If someone is bad and offends others, he will be left with nothing to eat.
Just when he looked embarrassed and hesitant, Zhao Peng reached out to push him away and said displeasedly: "Get off! It's really disappointing!"
"Why are you still standing here! You don't even look at me!" Yan Ming's son was also arrogant and followed Zhao Peng away.
All the dandies just left.
It wasn't until a while later that a soldier came to his senses, approached the officer and said, "Sir, this..."
The officer weighed it up and looked a little ugly: "Let's go back first."
A moment later, Wu Wei Mansion.
The officer hurriedly walked into the hall. After entering the hall, he clasped his fists and bent down: "Sir."
"Well, what's the matter?" Ye Cheng continued to look at the official document in his hand without raising his head.
"There was a fight in Zuihonglou just now. After I arrived..."
"Has everything been dealt with?" Ye Cheng interrupted him.
"This..." the officer hesitated for a moment and said truthfully: "The person who caused the trouble is the son of the Zhao family, the son of the Minister of Rites, the son of the Neiyoushi, and the son of the Zhongdafu..."
"What did you say?" Ye Cheng was shocked when he heard this, and couldn't help but raise his head with wide eyes.
