The high-pitched screams of the steward soon sounded in the courtyard outside the house.

In the territory of the Daqian Dynasty, all the Gaomen clans would always have boards and rulers for enforcing family laws or clan rules.

All servants who have signed a master-servant contract, whether it is a death contract or a living contract, will themselves be bound by this family law or clan rule, and the implementation of any family law or clan rule, as long as there is no question of human life, the official will basically not intervene.

Of course, even if there is a problem of human life, as long as no one complains, the official forces will not bother to pay attention.

No one will be idle, and they will not be happy for themselves.

Therefore, lynching was a common occurrence among these high-ranking families.

The core part of the laws of the Great Qian Dynasty was to maintain imperial power and protect the interests of the privileged.

In order to ensure the stability of its own rule, the best way for the imperial family to ensure the stability of its own rule is undoubtedly to take itself as the center and weave a huge circle of intertwined and inseparable interests.

As long as there are human beings, there will naturally be this kind of class difference that is constantly evolving.

This is quite normal.

After Xia Fan finished arranging the bloody hands, he also left the house, stood not far away, and watched the lynching of the blood river with his own eyes.

While being beaten, the steward screamed and screamed with Xia Fan at the same time, and his tearful appearance looked miserable.

However, Xia Fan didn't have any reaction to this, just watched expressionlessly.

However, the lynching of the steward did not last long, and when he had just finished more than 20 boards, Xia Junkai had already rushed into the courtyard quickly.

That's right, it's rushing!

Xia Junkai, who had always behaved very mildly in the Xia family, obviously didn't expect Xia Fan to be so simple and rude, which somewhat made his face look a little angry when he rushed in.

"Stop! Stop it! What's going on! Why is there a screaming sound here! I can hear it from all over the world! ”

As soon as he rushed into the courtyard, Xia Junkai saw Li Mingda in the corner of the courtyard, and his face couldn't help but become even more ugly.

There were already large blood marks on the part where Li Mingda was slapped on the board, and the cushioning force of the thin coarse fabric on this board was basically zero.

Although Xuehe did not use the power of a martial artist, he was simply punishing in the way of ordinary people, but if a hundred boards were really filmed, even if Li Mingda did not die on the spot, he would inevitably end up half-paralyzed.

At this time, although he had only beaten more than 20 boards, Li Mingda's lips were already purple, there was no trace of blood on his face, and his eyes were a little sloppy when he was tortured by the pain that pierced his heart.

As a steward, he is also a person of considerable status among the servants of the Xia family, not to mention that he also caught up with Xia Junkai, even if Li Mingda's usual life is not luxurious, but it is definitely luxurious, how can he ever suffer like this.

People who are accustomed to enjoyment are naturally far less able to bear pain than ordinary people.

The blood river had stopped as soon as Xia Junkai rushed in, and Xia Fan squinted his eyes slightly, then bowed with a smile and said, "I've seen the eldest brother, this early morning, how can the eldest brother have time to come to me?" Is there something going on? ”

"It's nothing, just heard the sound of your yard outside, so come and have a look. Isn't this Li Mingda of the Hundred Beasts Garden? What did he do wrong? And thou wilt chastise him in the same way? ”

Xia Junkai asked with a frown pretending to know nothing, as if he was completely unfamiliar with Li Mingda.

"It's just a matter of punishing a subordinate, what other reasons do you need?"

Xia Fan pursed his lips, and after the smile disappeared, he said with a little unpleasant.

"Second brother! My Xia family has always governed the family with leniency and benevolence, and has always treated subordinates with merit and punishment! Isn't it too much for you to punish your subordinates at will just based on your own preferences without any reason? ”

Xia Junkai reprimanded in a deep voice.

"What do you mean by just me to my own liking?"

Xia Fan's voice suddenly rose and he stared at Xia Junkai.

Like a cat whose tail has been trampled on, the angry voice continued: "Big brother! You don't know how hateful this guy is! I put the Garden of Beasts in his custody because I trusted him! But what about this guy? How did he repay my trust? It's only been four years since the establishment of the Hundred Beast Garden, but do you know how much money he spent in my name? Thirty-seven thousand five hundred taels! Do you really take me for an idiot! ”

Xia Junkai was slightly stunned, turned his head to look at the miserable Li Mingda, and after his eyes flickered, he asked, "Why did you spend so much?" ”

"How do I know!"

Xia Fan looked irritated and waved his hands.

"No accounts? No matter how much money is spent, there should always be an account, right? If there is a problem, it must be reflected in the accounts. ”

Xia Junkai's face showed a look of concern, and only in the deepest corners of his eyes could he see such a strange look.

"Ahem...... This one...... Accounts do have. ”

Xia Fan scratched his head a little embarrassed.

"That's it. As long as there is a problem with the accounts, it will naturally prove that Li Mingda has a problem, and when the time comes, if you punish him, no one will say anything. ”

Xia Junkai said with a puzzled expression.

"Big brother! It's not like you don't know! How could I possibly read those accounts! But even if I can't understand it, I know that there must be something wrong with the number of 37,500 taels! It must be this Li Mingda who has done something out of it to enrich his own pockets! ”

Xia Fan shouted very dissatisfied.

"Second brother, this can't be done, this can only be regarded as your own speculation, without clear evidence, speculation cannot be a reason to punish your subordinates. This practice is absolutely not allowed in the family. ”

Xia Junkai said solemnly.

"I don't care! What bullshit evidence! My guess is proof! Big brother, don't stop me! A hundred boards go down, there is no evidence, and I will give him evidence! This kind of bastard thing must be killed to make an example of others! River of Blood, why are you still standing there? Keep calling me! ”

Xia Fan's face was pale, and he played directly.

"Big young master! Young Master, please save me! Young Master, you have to make decisions for me! I...... I was wronged! ”

Li Mingda, who originally rushed into the courtyard with Xia Junkai, and his face was slightly better, was suddenly taken aback, and he howled loudly regardless of it.

Xia Junkai naturally couldn't let Xuehe continue to move, so he stopped directly in front of Xuehe, and at the same time looked at Xia Fan, and said very dissatisfiedly: "Second brother! If you really do what you said, wouldn't it have become a trick to be beaten! If it's something else, it's up to you to be a brother, but this thing is too ridiculous! There must be a rule for everything, and there must be a limit to nonsense! If you continue to be so unreasonable, I'll have to take this matter to the Council of Elders for adjudication!" Obedient, let's leave this matter at that. ”

Although he said this, in fact, Xia Junkai's heart was extremely hopeful that Xia Fan would continue to mess around.

Only in this way can this matter be completely made bigger, and then double the blow to Xia Fan's image in the Xia family.

"Forget it? Forget it! If you bring it to the Presbyterian Church, you will bring it to the Presbyterian Church! I'm not afraid of this! ”

Xia Fan seemed to have no brain at all, and then Xia Junkai's words shouted out.

Really! Xia Junkai was overjoyed, thinking that he really understood this stubborn and impulsive younger brother, and knew that as long as the tone was a little rushed, he would not worry about not achieving his goal!

Although he thought so in his heart, his face did not show it at all, looking at Xia Fan's somewhat annoyed and angry appearance, Xia Junkai shook his head helplessly, sighed, and leaned over to help Li Mingda up.

Then he looked at Xia Fan, who was full of anger, and said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, I will take Li Mingda to propose the convening of the Council of Elders, second brother, I am really a little disappointed in you." ”

"Humph!"

Xia Fan's answer was a cold snort, but it sounded a little bit lustful.

Xia Junkai shook his head again, and then helped Li Mingda turn around and walk towards the outside of the courtyard.

As soon as he turned around, a happy smile appeared on Xia Junkai's face.

At the same time, the anger on Xia Fan's face was completely replaced by a mocking smile.

Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills......
