In the north of the city, the Zhang family.
The Zhang family's residence covers a vast area of more than 200 acres. The house is magnificent and magnificent. The rooms in the house are decorated with carved beams and painted beams, and there are rockeries, flowing water, small bridges and flowing water. It is extremely luxurious.
The Zhang family was a wealthy family in Lujiang County. In the early years when Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was still there, he donated money to officials and got the official position of county postal governor.
After Zhang Xiong took office, he was relatively restrained at first. Once he became familiar with the rules of officialdom, he started to grab money and exploit officials and people.
In Lujiang County, Zhang Xiong had a bad reputation.
Zhang's backyard.
Zhang Xiong clasped his hands behind his back, looked at the man tied to the wooden stake in front of him, and said coldly: "Tai Shi Ci, I am running rampant in Lujiang County, and I am known as Zhang Bawang. My carriage is going to hit Lu Xun. It's none of your business." You mind your own business."
"Do you think Lu Kang will come forward if Lu Xun goes back to complain?"
"impossible!"
"Although this old guy Lu Kang has a reputation, he has nothing but fame. Let me tell you, as long as Lu Kang interferes, I will take the opportunity to make trouble and prevent Lu Kang from coming to power."
Zhang Xiong looked proud and said: "Behind me is Yuan Shu. Although Lu Kang is famous, he can't compare with Yuan Shu. The Yuan family of the fourth generation and the third prince are countless times stronger than the Lu family. It's useless for you to try to curry favor with the Lu family."
Taishi Ci's body was covered with whip marks.
At the age of twenty-seven or eighty-years-old, he is in the prime of life, and he hates evil as much as he hates it, and he is full of passion.
Taishi Ci's eyes were sharp and he said forcefully: "Zhang Xiong, I don't know anyone from the Lu family, nor do I know Lu Kang, and I have no intention of going over to curry favor with Lu Kang. I was just passing through Shu County, and I saw you hit someone with your car, and the road was rough. Just take action."
"After listening to your words, I also understand that you deliberately conflicted with the Lu family and wanted to help Yuan Shu deal with Lu Kang."
"It's just that I look down on you."
"If you have the ability, just go against Lu Kang directly. The children of the Lu family are only in their teens. It would be embarrassing for you to plot against such a child."
"Besides, you were able to arrest me not because you are very powerful, but because you arrested my son and threatened me. Otherwise, I would kill people like you directly."
Taishi Ci was whipped and his body was burning, but his face did not show any pain.
He looked at Zhang Xiong with eyes full of disgust.
He couldn't stand the villain who bullied the weak and bullied the children.
When he was in Qingzhou, he was famous for his hatred of evil. Even though he offended the powerful and fled to Liaodong, Taishi Ci still did not change his mind.
He couldn't do anything to save him.
Zhang Xiong became furious, raised the whip in his hand, and whipped it hard.
"Snapped!!"
The whip struck Tai Shi Ci.
Taishi Ci's body twitched, but he remained silent.
Zhang Xiong's eyes were cold and he said: "Tai Shi Ci, everyone who offends me, Zhang Xiong, will not end well. You can't last long if you show off now. I will starve you and beat you every day, so that You can’t live but you can’t die.”
"As for your son, when you can't bear it anymore and die, I will sell him as a slave."
"Hahaha……"
"This is the consequences of offending me, Zhang Xiong."
"I asked you to be nosy, and if you say the road is rough, then fine, I'll let you enjoy the consequences of the road being rough."
Zhang Xiong reached out and slapped Taishi Ci on the face, with a proud look in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Taishi Ci, even if you are tall and strong, so what? Every day in the future, you will..."
"Pooh!"
Taishi Ci took a mouthful of thick phlegm and spit it on Zhang Xiong's face.
"you you……"
Zhang Xiong's eyes widened, he became furious again in an instant, and he lashed out with the whip in his hand.
"Pah! Pah!!"
The riding whip was waving in the air, hitting Tai Shici repeatedly.
One whip after another.
Taishi Ci gritted his teeth, his eyes fierce, but still made no sound.
After Zhang Xiong twitched for a while, he was somewhat out of breath. Seeing that Taishi Ci was still hard-working, he said in a deep voice: "Well, Taishi Ci, you are so brave, right? Don't worry, I don't believe you can hold on forever. I'll starve you for a day, and we'll see tomorrow. Can you still show off?"
"Master!"
At this moment, the housekeeper came in a hurry and reported: "The head of the family, Lu Kang's son Lu Xuan, led a group of people outside the house."
Zhang Xiong sneered and said: "I'm not afraid of Lu Kang, why should I be afraid of Lu Xuan? Let's go and meet him for a while. I want to see what Lu Xuan, a kid with a yellow mouth, is going to do?"
He glared at Tai Shici and strode out.
Zhang Xiong led people to the gate, and when he glanced around, he saw Lu Xuan standing at the front.
Zhang Xiong had contempt in his eyes, held his head high, and said forcefully: "Lu Xuan, you brought nearly a hundred people to the gate of my Zhang family. Do you want to besiege my Zhang family?"
Lu Xuan stood at the front, flanked by Zhou Yu and Lu Xun, and behind him were Cao Xi, Peng Yuan and other family heads.
At the very back, there were more than fifty private soldiers of the Lu family. It would definitely not be safe to come to Zhang Xiong's house to beg someone without bringing the family's private soldiers.
Everything depends on strength.
Lu Xuan's eyes were sharp and he said in a deep voice: "Zhang Duyou, if you step back from the brink, let him go immediately, and apologize. The people I brought here are here to praise you. If you persist in your obsession, we, the people, are here to besiege you." You belong to the Zhang family."
"What a courage."
Zhang Xiong raised his head and said forcefully: "Lu Xuan, you asked Lu Xun for help. Are you here for Tai Shi Ci?"
Lu Xuan raised his eyebrows.
Tai Shi Ci!
Was the person who saved Lu Xun actually Tai Shici?
This kid Lu Xun was a lucky star. One time he asked for help, he actually found Tai Shici for him.
For Lu Xuan, this is the best general.
Lu Xuan was even more determined to rescue Tai Shi Ci. He said coldly: "Zhang Xiong, my nephew Lu Xun was walking on the street, and you drove into him. If Tai Shi Ci hadn't rescued him in time, my nephew would have been killed. Knocked to the ground."
"Now that you have arrested Taishi Ci, that's not okay. Make an apology and then release Taishi Ci. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."
"I, the Lu family, are not that easy to bully. I will never give up until you get an explanation for this matter."
Lu Xuan had a tough attitude.
However, Zhang Xiong sneered and didn't take Lu Xuan's threat to heart at all.
Zhang Xiong flicked his sleeves and said: "Lu Xuan, I just won't let him go. What can you do to me? You said I hit someone with my car. Did I hit Lu Xun? I didn't hit him. Taishi Ci hit me, He should be dealt with."
"Child Lu Xuan, don't meddle in other people's business like a dog or a mouse. Just go back to where you came from."
"Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
"Your father, Lu Kang, has to pay three respects when he sees me, let alone you?"
"You kid with a yellow mouth, you are so self-righteous."
Zhang Xiong had a tough attitude and scolded: "Don't think that just knowing a few lines of poetry will make you serious. In front of me, poetry is useless."
"Zhang Xiong, you are too arrogant."
Peng Yuan was the first to stand up. He scolded him sternly and said: "You Zhang Xiong are domineering and arrogant, and you even ignore the laws of the country. My Peng family and your Zhang family have severed diplomatic relations. All business contacts between the Peng family and the Zhang family have been severed."
The pupils in Zhang Xiong's eyes shrank, and he said angrily: "Peng Yuan, don't think that you can rise to great heights if you climb a high branch. Be careful if you fall down and break your leg, or you may fall to death."
Cao Xi stood up and said loudly: "Zhang Xiong, the Cao family supplies cloth and food to the Zhang family. From today on, all supplies will be cut off and relations with the Zhang family will be severed."
Zhang Xiong clenched his fists, his eyes were cold and even more angry.
A group of people want to curry favor with the Lu family.
What a joke.
Zhang Xiong said loudly: "Without the supply from your Cao family, wouldn't I be able to find anyone else? Without Butcher Zhang, there would still be Butcher Zhao."
Chen Tang took over and said: "Zhang Xiong, my Chen family has broken off all relations with you and will no longer have any contact with you."
"Zhang Xiong, I, the Gong family, are breaking off all relations with you."
"Zhang Xiong, I, the Ling family, are breaking off all relations with you."
"Zhang Xiong, we, the Zhang family, break off our friendship with you."
…
The patriarchs of each family all expressed their opinions and cut off all contact with Zhang Xi.
These people have seen Lu Xuan's power, know Lu Xuan's abilities, and have seen Xu Shao's comments about Lu Xuan, coupled with the influence of the Lu family, and the drive of Feixian Wine's interests, all added together, these People abandoned Zhang Xiong and supported Lu Xuan.
boom! !
Zhang Xiong's mind was a little fried.
His whole body trembled slightly.
Zhang Xiong was angry as never before, and even more panicked. He was the county postal governor, but he was isolated by Lu Xuan, a young boy.
How unreasonable!
Zhang Xiong looked around at the people around him and said loudly: "Lu Xuan, do you think that by bewitching these people, you can threaten me? I tell you, that is impossible."
"My Zhang family is from a wealthy family in Lujiang County."
"I, Zhang Xiong, have a wide network of contacts, and I have obtained the support of Yuan Shu. Who are you, the fourth and third generation of the Yuan family?"
"Besides, if you, Lu Xuan, want me to let him go, there is no way. I am standing here, do you dare to do something to me? I will give you a hundred leopard guts, but you don't dare to do it. You are so helpless. I look down on this useless person with the strength of a chicken."
Zhang Xiong was angry and directly revealed his contact with the Yuan family.
Lu Xuan's heart was filled with murderous intent.
Zhang Xiong is Yuan Shu's man, and with this in mind, Zhang Xiong deserves to die.
In an instant, Lu Xuan had a plan to deal with Zhang Xiong. He took one step forward, and because the two sides were very close, he was in front of Zhang Xiong in an instant. Lu Xuan reached out with his right hand, grabbed Zhang Xiong's clothes in front of him, and threw him out with all his strength.
