"Rang, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring..."
In a remote corner of the city, there is a small courtyard. The outside looks dilapidated and covered with thick dust, as if no one has lived in it for many years.
But if you can push the door open and enter, you will find that there is something else inside. The floor is paved with fine white jade, but there is something great in the mediocrity. A sloppy young man is sitting on a rocking chair made of sandalwood, leaning on his left hand. face, holding a luxurious folding fan in his right hand, looking at the big clam in the pond in front of him.
He couldn't help but hum a song.
This is a place he made for himself privately, no one else knows about it, just for the sake of peace and quiet.
However, he won't come to this place often, in case he comes too often and exposes the place.
He has many places like this, but among other places, this is one of the largest.
The young master of the Chu family got an exotic treasure and was in a good mood, so he wanted to hide away for a few days to be clean and tidy.
"They must have been anxious since they haven't seen me for a few days." When the young master of the Chu family heard the shouting outside, he naturally understood that the Chu family was a little anxious.
He didn't care, it was good to make them anxious.
It's time for them to teach them who is the master of the Chu family. Since their parents passed away, the rights of the family have been controlled by the elders.
Naturally, he couldn't do much at a young age and could only be manipulated by others.
Ironically, they couldn't stand him, but they still supported him and counted on him.
In the end, it was all about a name - Chu Renggong.
The Chu family once followed the royal family of the Jing Kingdom to overthrow the remnants of the previous dynasty, achieved great military exploits, and were named Lords of Chu by the court. They have been attacked for generations.
And he is the only one left in the main line of the Chu family. He is weak and weak, so he is naturally at the mercy of others.
Of course, he knew that the Chu family was not merciful to keep him even though they had taken the collateral line. If it weren't for the name above his head, he might have died long ago.
Ordinary people also have fights, so how can aristocratic families be immune?
He hated those people when he remembered that when he was a child, he was looked down upon by those people, that he had no clothes to cover his body, and no food to eat.
Without their permission, those servants would dare to insult him.
This past has caused him to dislike interacting with others.
That's why I made such a place for myself in private, to hide away in peace and avoid the cynicism in the Chu family.
Rather than go back and be insulted by them, it is better to be pure and pure yourself.
He didn't return for a few days, which made the Chu family anxious, so they sent people to let him know and offered a large reward.
It made the whole city agitated, so he heard the shouting outside, everyone wanted to get the reward from the Chu family.
As for why they didn't dare to put him under house arrest, they were naturally afraid that he would be included in the book when they went to court.
According to the law of the court, you need to visit once a year, and if you don't go to the official rank, you will be demoted one level. With this name, the Chu family has some things that are justifiable. If you don't have this name, you may be targeted.
It's a pity that the emperor wanted to take back the title he had previously given. Now several people have stepped down. The title was taken back, all the families were executed, and all the nine clans were executed. As a result, he naturally did not dare to give the emperor any words.
As a result, a wonderful balance was maintained between him and the Chu family. The Chu family did not dare to touch him, and he did not dare to deal with the Chu family.
This balance has been maintained to this day.
"I know you can understand human speech, so don't ignore me." The young master of the Chu family touched the clams in the pool with his folding fan.
The water clam closed its mouth tightly and seemed to be angry.
As for why she was angry, it was naturally because the Chu family master deliberately lied to her and said he would let her go back, but he didn't.
The delighted water clam unpreparedly revealed his spirituality, and was discovered by the Chu family.
Originally, the Young Master of the Chu family wanted to let her go, but because she was spiritual, he naturally became very playful and wanted to stay longer.
"You said I did the right thing. Although I hate them, they are the ones who raised me. This is an indisputable fact. But if it weren't for them, they would have been mine."
"They only kept me because of my reputation."
"Sometimes I really want to die with them in the court."
"Do you think I'm bad?"
…
The young master of the Chu family came to Shui Bang to talk about his troubles when he had nothing to do. Is he reluctant to part with the glory and wealth of the Chu family or is he kind-hearted and doesn't want to kill anyone?
Neither, maybe both.
At such a young age, he had some troubles that he couldn't clearly see or explain.
But how could the water clam know these things? Although the Chu family master told her about him all day long, the water clam was still a spiritual being who was not deeply involved in the world, and was not necessarily any better than him.
If you don’t understand, you will naturally dislike the Chu family’s young master.
Shui Cang turned away silently and turned his back to the Chu family master, which meant that he didn't want to listen to what this big bad guy had to say at all.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa----a--but you have good intentions and saved your life, and you really didn't react at all." The young master of the Chu family knocked on the clam's shell.
The water clam remained unmoved, still facing away from him.
"You seem to have not understood your current situation. Since you think I am not a good person, let you see my methods."
The young master of the Chu family rolled up his sleeves and tried to grab it with both hands, but he missed it.
When he caught the clam with both hands, it jumped forward, causing the Chu family master to miss it.
"Okay, okay, I'm angry. If you can run away, don't blame me for being unreasonable."
After saying this, the Young Master of the Chu family took off his boots, rolled up his clothes and walked barefoot into the pool. The pool was not high enough to reach his calves.
"Now let me see where you run."
The young master of the Chu family forced the clam into a corner in the pool. The clam jumped and wanted to run outside. Unfortunately, the fence of the pool was built according to the height of a small fish jumping.
The water clam can jump, but its huge body is naturally not as good as the small and powerful fish. It hit the fence all of a sudden, hit the ground hard and shook a few times.
Such a shameless young master of the Chu family naturally picked up the water clam, which was as light as a feather. The clam shell looked as strong as hair and felt as soft as hair, making it very comfortable to hold.
"You said you are so spiritual, will you be like the storyteller in the teahouse, one day able to take on a human form? You said you are a boy or a girl."
"I wish you were a woman. I would also be a character in the story and marry you."
The Chu family master's joking words fell into Shui Bang's heart. He told those beautiful stories frequently these days, and Shui Bang also wanted to have a bright future like those predecessors.
The struggling water clam seemed to calm down.
When the Young Master of the Chu family felt surprised, he heard a bang, and the door was broken. The thick wooden door was shattered like a thin wooden board.
The Young Master of the Chu family held the water clam at his side and blocked his eyes with one hand. A burst of dust blew in along the rapids.
Before the dust dispersed, a sound was heard.
"Give me my friends back"
