Yang Qing, who had already left the shop and was about to stop the evil deeds, stopped when he heard the words. He thought that some knight had robbed him of his words. He looked around and saw four or five big men separated from the crowd, hugging a man. The young man came over.
The man was about twenty-five or six years old, with a tall and straight figure and a fair face. The fine moon-white brocade clothes he wore made him even more handsome.
His righteous words came to the rescue, and his appearance was so good that everyone should have been admired and heartbroken. However, what he did next left everyone dumbfounded.
"Why don't you stop?" The man slowly walked up to the group of villains and said in a deep voice.
When the evil men heard this, they immediately let go of the couple and bowed to the side. Everyone thought things were turning around, but the handsome man stared blankly at the young woman and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, little lady, I'm here soon."
"I asked you to come here to invite me to my little lady. Who wants you to use force?" The handsome man turned back to look at the evil men and said angrily.
The evil guy who was the leader from before quickly laughed and said: "Young Master, it's not that we are rude, but this little lady really doesn't know how to appreciate others."
"Then you can't be so rude. What if you hurt the little lady?"
His words sounded like good words, but everyone could see the malice shown in the evil smile on his face when he spoke, and they all thought that this man was worthy of being the young master of these evil men. It is true that every servant must have his master.
"Come on, little lady, I've prepared a table of food and drinks at the restaurant in front. Let's go over and talk about what happened just now." After saying that, the handsome man was about to grab the woman's arm, and his men fell down upon seeing this. He is also very discerning and takes the initiative to restrain the woman's husband without being asked.
"How presumptuous!" Just when the young master was about to touch the woman, another angry shout came from behind everyone.
The handsome man stopped his hand subconsciously after hearing this, and immediately his face turned cold. He turned around, ready to see who was so blind, but he saw a young man with a sword hanging on his waist staring at him coldly, behind him Also following were six or seven strong men armed with weapons, with stern faces and imposing aura.
Seeing that the person who came was not showing off, even though this handsome man had an extraordinary background, he felt a little uneasy in his heart. Then he put away the smile on his lips and asked lightly: "Who are you? Why are you preventing me from seeking justice?"
"What a sharp mouth. He is still pretending to be a victim at this moment, but he has some skills."
Yang Qing sneered in his heart and ignored him. He walked up to the young couple and said softly: "Little brothers, you don't need to be afraid. In this clear day and bright sky, there is no room for a woman to do evil in front of so many people." If you bully others and bully the weak in front of others, you can tell the truth about what happened, and we, the righteous people, will certainly uphold justice for you."
Before the young country man responded, the handsome man on the side stopped. Especially when Yang Qing ignored him just now, he was furious. But because he couldn't figure out the details of Yang Qing and the others, he didn't dare to act rashly, so he suppressed his anger. , took a step further, raised his hands and said, "May I ask where this dear friend is from? How can he speak for these two people? It was obvious that they were rude and bumped into someone first. How come he is not mine now?"
"That's right. Where did you come from, asking you to mind your own business?"
"My young master is a handsome gentleman. How could he do anything to oppress good people? You are obviously a slanderer!"
"Young Master, this cunning and cunning girl is here to confuse people. She is not a good person at first glance. I suggest that the couple and this person be sent to the county temple for justice."
…
Ever since Yang Qing came out, many of the young master's subordinates have long been dissatisfied with him. When they saw the misfortune of their own young master, they quickly criticized him in order to keep people in the public eye.
"How reckless, are you seeking death?" How could Zhou Xing allow them to insult the prefect like this? He immediately drew his sword and pointed it at the evil servants and shouted loudly. The guards around him also showed their weapons and glared at the evil servants.
Zhou Xing and the others were all elites who fought out of the Corpse Mountain and the Sea of Blood, and their momentum was so majestic. Although the young master's men were also skilled in martial arts, they were so frightened that they stood still for a moment when they saw this posture.
Yang Qing smiled slightly: "Why, if you are not a local, you can't care about this injustice? But it doesn't hurt to tell you, I am from Jiangzhou, Bajun, and I just came to Hanzhong not long ago." After a pause, he seemed to smile again.
He said with a smile: "Why, do you have confidence now?"
He could see the purpose of this young master at a glance. It was just to find out his own background. If Yang Qing was a local, the young master would consider whether he was a member of a famous family, so that he could determine the next strategy. .
In fact, the young master really had this plan. When he saw Zhou Xing and the others using weapons, he was quite worried. Later, when he heard that Yang Qing and the others were outsiders, he finally felt relieved. After all, he did not know the younger generation of local dignitaries. Even though he has countless connections and avoids the few people he can't afford to offend, he really has no fear in Nanzheng City.
But when he saw Yang Qing openly showing his identity again, seemingly confident, he suddenly felt uncertain again. He thought about it and said with a smile: "It turns out that my brother is from Jiangzhou. I dare to ask whether he came to Hanzhong this time to visit relatives or friends. There are a lot of friends in Nanzheng City, maybe you and I have some friends we both know." He decided to explore Yang Qing's details again.
"Okay, put away your boring testing tricks." Yang Qing said solemnly: "Didn't you just say that you are a government official? Let me ask you, who is your surname and what is your official position?"
When the young master saw that his good temper was met with sarcastic remarks, a burst of anger immediately rushed to his forehead. He pointed at Yang Qing and said, "You really don't want to drink wine as a penalty. Do you really think that I am afraid of you? That's awesome." You know, someone is from Nanzheng County..." He suddenly remembered his father's usual instructions and saw that the surroundings were full of people, so he immediately stopped talking.
"My young master is the son of Cui Gong, the magistrate of Nanzheng County. If you know the truth, leave now, otherwise you will not be able to leave Nanzheng City today!" Although the young master suddenly woke up, unexpectedly his leader stood up and said Face said arrogantly.
When the people heard that the young master was the son of an official in the city, they immediately took a few steps back unconsciously and looked at both parties in the field with fear and worry.
The young couple on the side trembled with fear and turned pale when they heard this. The young man opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something to Yang Qing, but for some reason, seeing Yang Qing's straight back, he did not speak after all, and hugged his wife tightly. Stand where you are.
"This guy is Cui Xiang's son? Now things get interesting." Yang Qing was also surprised and frowned.
Young Master Cui was about to get angry when he saw his subordinates telling the truth. Suddenly, he saw Yang Qing frowning and standing there with his head bowed silently. He immediately felt emboldened.
"Why, stop talking? Where did the arrogance just now go? Yes, your father is the magistrate of Nanzheng County. Do you want to go by yourself or do you want the servants to do it?" He thought that Yang Qing was attracted by his identity, and he felt relaxed immediately. .
However, he thought wrongly. Yang Qing lowered his head and knitted his eyebrows not because he was afraid of him, but because he was thinking of Li Yu. He was worrying about how to get Cui Xiang to vacate the position of Nanzheng County Magistrate for Li Yu. Unexpectedly, he felt sleepy today. Cui sent his son an excuse himself, God help him.
"Sir, how about you..." The young husband seemed to think that Yang Qing was in trouble, so he wanted to tell him to leave the matter alone.
Yang Qing turned to him and smiled, then turned around and said, "It turns out you are the young master of Magistrate Cui's family. How disrespectful!"
"Hmph, I thought you had some great background, but I didn't expect to be scared when I heard my father's name. I was really tricked by you before, and now I want you to know what I'm doing."
Young Master Cui was secretly proud, thinking that he was sure of victory, so he was about to taunt Yang Qing a few words. Suddenly, he saw Yang Qing shaking his head slightly, and he was surprised when he heard the other party say softly: "Come on, take this person down."
