It was not someone else who was cheap, it was sitting at the table next to her, Wang Xin, who had ridiculed Hao Cheng before, of course, she was not the only one in the crowd who said this, but her voice was relatively loud and her tone was too harsh, so she was whipped by this noble-born young man and used as a chicken to set an example for the monkey.
Wang Xin is a practitioner, the broken whip suddenly flung over, she subconsciously went to catch it, Rao is so, the wind at the end of the whip still tore a big hole in the fabric of her shoulder.
The clothes are still like this, not to mention the hand holding the whip, although the calluses on Wang Xin's hands are thick, but there are barbs on the whip, but the hand is bleeding in an instant.
Hao Cheng, as a bystander, was shocked, and saw Wang Xin being ruthless and grabbing the whip hard, but the little boy stood firmly in place. With a backhand drag, Wang Xin stumbled, only felt a sharp pain, subconsciously loosened the whip, and almost fell to the ground.
The little boy took the whip and came back, and the tail wind could still split the table in front of Hao Cheng in half, which showed the strength of the whip.
If this is left on TV, she can still applaud this little boy, praise the handsome kung fu, is in front of her, Hao Cheng only feels that her legs are a little numb, not only sympathy for Wang Xin, but also a little bit of happiness that has not been affected.
There are all kinds of people in this inn, he is so ruthless, there is a young woman dressed as a scholar in a long coat, she can't stand it and opens her mouth: "If you don't say a word, you will hurt people, it's really a king's law!" ”
Originally, the inn was silent because of this whip, but the scholar spoke, which made the inn so quiet that even the embroidery needle could be heard on the ground.
Qiao Yu raised his eyebrows: "Which eye did you see me hurting someone?" ”
As soon as he said this, the outsiders were fine, and the locals all looked at the scholar with sympathetic eyes. Qiao Yu is the third and only son of the city lord's family.
The city lord of Mingzhou City is notoriously afraid of her husband and loves her children, Qiao Yu has been pampered by her parents since she was a child, and she is spoiled to the sky by her two capable sisters. is arrogant and difficult to serve, and the obvious advantage is that he does not hold grudges, because he usually takes revenge in person if he has a grudge.
Qiao Yu's name is very famous in the entire Mingzhou City, and there are no locals and outsiders who often come to Mingzhou to do business who don't know him. This scholar is also stupid, he can say whatever he wants behind his back, and say it in front of him, isn't that just looking for death?
The scholar's legs were a little weak, but he still stiffened his neck and said, "I have seen it with both eyes, and the people here have seen it too!" ”
To everyone's surprise, Qiao Yu didn't have a seizure immediately, but instead scanned his eyes around, his eyes flowed, and said, "Then you might as well ask, besides you, who here has seen it?" ”
The scholar turned his eyes for help, and no one around him dared to say anything, and most of them turned their eyes to the side and chatted to themselves.
The scholar was sweating profusely, and it was obviously a cool weather, and her sweat could wet all her clothes.
Everyone's reaction was within Qiao Yu's expectations, and seeing the scholar's nervous look, he said again: "Look, no one present saw me hurting people, but it was just something you imagined yourself, how can this be talked about without a king?" ”
He paused, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and there was a bit of ridicule in his eyes: "It's you, who claim to be a scholar, but wantonly slander others and ruin the reputation of an innocent man, what is insulting!" You're the insult! ”
When he said this, the scholar trembled even more, of course, not afraid, but angry. It's just that although she is a scholar, she has an upright temperament, otherwise she wouldn't stand up for that Wang Xin.
It's a pity that she is not good at verbal battles, and she always feels that what this person said is wrong, but she can't say anything wrong, so she can only stammer: "Even if people say you, you shouldn't beat people like this." ”
Without waiting for Qiao Yu to speak, the female monarchs who came with him became impatient: "You, you, what are you." If you talk nonsense again, I will arrest you and take you to the official office and sue you for slander. I hate this kind of truth the most, and I can only talk empty words and be poor scholars. ”
Qiao Yu chuckled: "If you can find someone who speaks for you, I won't care about you." If you can't find it, let's go to the officials and talk about what kind of crime this slanders others at will and what kind of crime people are right and wrong. ”
Obviously, he said this not only to scholars, but also to those who were just talking about him.
The scholar turned his attention to the victim Wang Xin, but she was pulled by the companions of the caravan around her: "He is the son of the city lord's family, you don't want to mix here, we have worked hard to come to Mingzhou City, and we have to do business, and we still have a family to support." ”
Because of his cheap mouth, Wang Xin caused trouble for the caravan. If she left the caravan, the silver she could earn in a year would definitely not be enough to feed the family, and she thought of her husband and daughter at this time, and she sat down, not daring to meet the scholar's eyes.
The scholar turned his eyes to the shopkeeper of the inn again, and the shopkeeper hiding under the cabinet poked his head out, but the words he said made the scholar even more desperate: "This table is self-inflicted, and it has nothing to do with others." ”
In a small inn like theirs, if something is smashed, those sons and daughters will basically pay for it in private, but they are just a little frightened, but they actually have no loss.
But she has to deal with people on the spot, don't give them face, let alone compensation, and she won't have to do any business.
Came forward by himself, but he didn't expect these people to react like this, and the scholar who had no way to ask for help just asked around, but no one was willing to speak for him.
will talk about the rights and wrongs of others behind their backs, and they are originally people who can only speak quickly, so it is naturally impossible to sacrifice their own interests to speak for scholars.
The scholar pointed to several people who looked at their hearts, but they all turned their faces away and kept silent, or waved their hands again and again to say that they didn't know. She spun around, and her eyes fell on another person dressed as a scholar in the inn.
She pointed her finger at Hao Cheng: "You ask her, ask her!" ”
Hao Cheng was praising the scholar's courage, and he was also amazed by the sharp teeth of the little boy of the city lord's family, and as a result, the scholar burned the fire to her.
The eyes of the people in the inn were focused on Hao Cheng's face, and in the face of the scholar's pitiful gaze, she still opened her mouth and told the truth: "I also saw it just now, the wound on that person's body was indeed beaten by Gongzi, and this table was also chopped by the whip in Gongzi's hand." ”
The scholar was so pitiful, and the whip on the little boy's hand still had dark red blood stains and sawdust, and she couldn't tell nonsense against her conscience.
The scholar was so relieved that he breathed a sigh of relief, and he almost collapsed to the ground. Hao Cheng said this, and all the pressure was transferred to her.
Seeing that the eyes of the people around him were wrong, Hao Cheng hurriedly remedied: "It's just that, in my opinion, what this female monarch said is also wrong." ”
Like the world she lives in, some people really want people to tear her mouth, but in a legal society, we must be civilized and polite, if a person's mouth is particularly damaged, and he is deflated by a spicy person, those who are damaged by her will only feel happy.
The reputation of the innocent man in this world is very important, if he is a thin-skinned son, he will be ashamed to death if he is said like this, but if Qiao Yu is such a lady, it is impossible to go to this kind of place and be ridiculed by Wang Xin.
She pointed to Wang Xin, who shrunk his head, and said: "The one who flirts first is cheap, the man's innocence and reputation are important, she is the first to speak offensively, and the son is naturally qualified to teach a lesson." But Childe also did something wrong. ”
Qiao Yu looked at her with a smile: "Since you said that she should teach a lesson, what did Ben Gongzi do wrong?" ”
"She offended Childe because she couldn't control her mouth, and Childe sent someone to slap him a few times to make him know that he was wrong. The shoulders and clothes are innocent, and the son is kind-hearted, so it is naturally wrong to hurt them with a whip. ”
She looked earnestly, as if it were meant to be so.
That Qiao Yu didn't speak, and Hao Cheng also pinched a handful of sweat. A female monarch beside her shouted: "It's sunny outside, and there is a rainbow outside!" ”
Seeing that the rain had stopped, Qiao Yu took his whip and walked out of the door of the inn with those young women, and before leaving, he glanced at Hao Cheng with deep meaning.
Hao Cheng changed a table far away from the group, and the scholar from before came over to thank her again: "Thank you, Sister Xian, for relieving me, and my little sister is scared to death." ”
Hao Cheng only lowered his voice and said two sentences: "Persuade you to say a word, don't talk about the rights and wrongs of others." And some people you have to stand up for her, and you have to see if she's worth it. "The scholar has a good temperament, she takes the risk to speak for her, and she will not regret it in her heart. But Wang Xin will only make people chill.
This is not a place where everyone is equal, if you change your identity to a more noble son, such as Diqing or something, let alone a whip, Wang Xin will lose his life. Being whipped like this can make Wang Xin have a long memory, which is actually a good thing for her. lest next time, she doesn't know how to lose her life if she is so disproportionate.
After admonishing the scholar, Hao Cheng's heart was not as calm as she had appeared. She still wants to take root in this Mingzhou City, and it seems that she offended the son of the city lord's family on the first day, and I hope that the other party will not hold too much grudges.
