Volume 1 The First Entry into the Other World Chapter 67 Xie Xiu's Principles
But now the city lord and the eldest lady of the Chu family are also staring here, no matter what ruling he makes, he will offend the other party, which is really a headache.
At this moment, a neat sound of horses' hooves came, whether it was Sang Qian or Mei Chaofeng, their faces changed slightly, in the entire Mingyue City, there was such a cavalry team, who else was there besides the Chu family?
Soon a tower-like figure led a group of soldiers, each dressed in gold armor and red robes, with fierce eyes, and the group of soldiers entered the casino in two neat rows, surrounding everyone in the middle.
With the sound of their sharp and neat steps, a solemn aura instantly filled the entire gambling house.
"This is the red-robed army of the Chu family, and it really looks much more powerful than those in the Hefang Battalion. β
"Shhh
......
Hearing the whispers of the people around him, Sang Qian's cheeks twitched, and he stepped forward and snorted coldly: "Yue Shan, what are you doing here! Your Chu family mobilized a private army for no reason, is it to rebel?"
Although he hadn't been in office for a long time, he still recognized this person as the captain of the Chu family's guards.
Yue Shan replied coldly: "We just heard that the eldest lady was bullied and came to protect her, the Chu family still has this power." β
After finishing speaking, he came to Chu Chuyan and saluted respectfully: "I've seen the eldest lady." β
Zu An on the side looked excited, thinking that in such an environment, wouldn't it be better for him to call me uncle?
Chu Chuyan smiled slightly and helped him up.
Yue Shan continued: "Miss, the master has spoken, saying that no matter how downtrod our Chu family is, it is not something that a gang can bully, as long as Miss says a word, the Plum Blossom Gang will be completely wiped out today!"
As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and Mei Chaofeng was even more shocked, their plum blossom gang has been prosperous over the years, not because his cultivation is high enough, and the people under him are capable of fighting, but the most important thing is that other forces acquiesce to his existence in order to maintain balance.
If he really tears his face, he is a gang leader, even if there is the support of some people behind him, where is the opponent of a duke's palace?
Not to mention the Duke Eight-Rank Cultivation, it is the red-robed army of the Chu family, which can crush the entire Plum Blossom Gang.
He had to look at Sang Qian as if asking for help, and Sang Qian was obviously extremely shocked, and he couldn't react for a while.
Noticing the appearance of the two, Zu An only felt comfortable, this is right, it seems that the thigh he hugged was not wrong, and it felt so good to bully others.
He had forgotten that he had just wanted to jump off the sinking ship.
Pang Chun coughed and said tentatively: "It doesn't seem good for the Chu family to meddle in local affairs like this. β
Sang Qian on the side seemed to be awakened, and hurriedly said, "Yes, is your Chu family going to rebel?"
Chu Chuyan took a step forward and said coldly: "Is it considered a rebellion to clean up the gangs?" β
Seeing the eldest lady speak, the warriors of the Chu family pressed their hands on the hilt of their swords, as if they only needed an order to clear the field immediately.
Sang Qian swallowed his saliva and hurriedly said: "Whether the Plum Blossom Gang is a gang or not, how to punish it is also a matter for the city lord to take care of, and your Chu family's interference is a blatant disobedience to the rules of the imperial court." β
"Okay, let's follow the rules of the imperial court," Chu Chuyan's eyes were cold, "My husband ...... The husband was first designed to be struck by lightning in the suburbs, and then almost assassinated outside the city, and then someone set up a situation to make him owe a huge gambling debt, wanting to take the opportunity to cut off his hands and feet...... Each of these things is inseparable from the Plum Blossom Gang, and the huge number of people who are tired of Mei Chaofeng and his thirteen righteous sons, and the middle and high-level of the Plum Blossom Gang are all imprisoned and strictly interrogated about the matter. β
"Ah, this ......" Pang Chun was also a little flustered for a while, and hurriedly looked at Xie Xiu.
Xie Xiu also frowned slightly, he had heard all kinds of rumors before, Zu An was not very popular in the Chu family, but looking at this situation, could it be that Miss Chu really liked him so much, and did not hesitate to risk the world's disapproval for him?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little sour, although he had a good relationship with Zu An among the students before, but he was a man after all, and any man would inevitably be a little unhappy and jealous when he saw a stunning woman like Chu Chuyan so devoted to other men.
However, he quickly adjusted, a superb woman like Miss Chu was not his hunting target, no matter how good a woman is, it can't be as happy as a group of eight-point women.
This is his purpose of picking up girls, never to provoke those extraordinary women, those women have one count, there is a lot of trouble behind them, and he is really with such a woman, he is destined to be unable to show mercy everywhere;
Pang Chun was originally asking for his opinion, but he didn't know that there were all kinds of strange expressions on his face, which made him not know what to do for a while.
At this time, Chu Chuyan spoke again: "If the huge people are afraid of offending people, then I will personally bring people to arrest them and send them to the mansion, how about it?"
"Miss Chu is angry, Miss Chu is angry," Pang Chun took out a handkerchief and hurriedly wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, "This matter needs to be considered in the long run, and in the long run." β
Sang Qian's face on the side also changed brightly, involving the crime of murdering the aunt of the Duke's Mansion, this matter can be big or small, seeing the determination of Miss Chu and the murderous spirit of those red-robed soldiers in the house, he did not dare to help each other as unscrupulously as before, so as not to cause trouble to his father.
Mei Chaofeng's heart was also beating wildly, is it really going to be planted here today? Thinking of this, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and the big deal was to break the net.
At this moment, a thin voice came from his ear: "Write down the IOU of 7.5 million taels and end today's matter." β
Mei Chaofeng heard that it was Xue'er's voice that was transmitted into the secret, and he reacted at this time, the other party is so tough, in the final analysis, it is on the 7.5 million taels, but can such an IOU be written?
As if seeing his hesitation, Xue'er's voice came again: "You are stupid, even if you write an IOU, when to pay it back, how to pay it back, and even whether to pay it back, you can find a way later." If the Chu family is really forced to wipe out your Plum Blossom Gang today, the layout of the son for so many years will be over!"
Mei Chaofeng frowned, and quickly sent a voice into the secret and replied: "But the Chu family obviously can't meddle in local affairs, they really did it today, and after two days, Lord Taishou reacted, and they couldn't eat and walk around." β
"How can it be so easy, the city lord is a member of the Qi King's faction, when the time comes, you people will be imprisoned, and they won't take this opportunity to beat the water dogs? Over the years, your plum blossom gang has done less evil? If you really investigate, which of you can escape!" Seeing that he still couldn't understand it, Xue'er's voice revealed a trace of anxiety and anger.
Mei Chaofeng gritted his teeth, and finally made up his mind and apologized to Chu Chuyan: "Today is our gang that was inconsiderate and collided with Miss Chu, Mei is here to make amends to Miss Chu, and I hope that Miss Chu has a lot, don't take it to heart." β
Saying this in front of so many people, his face was so hot and painful, he could imagine that after tonight, he would become the laughing stock of these people, and the powerful image he had built up over the years would also collapse.
But he couldn't help it, he really didn't dare to bet, in case the Chu family was really hard-hearted, and today he sent the army to serve the plum blossom gang to a pot, and he had no place to cry.
In fact, if he is really a person, the fierceness of the Jianghu people will let him go and not be affected by this bird's anger, but the Plum Blossom Gang is not his alone.
The man behind him has spent so much effort to support him over the years, if he turns these into nothing overnight, even if he escapes tonight, he will die in the end with no place to bury.
So he could only pull down his face and apologize to a little girl who was much younger than himself, and at this moment he seemed to feel the gaze of the crowd around him as if it were substance.
After apologizing, finding that Chu Chuyan was indifferent, Mei Chaofeng gritted his teeth, knowing that the other party couldn't just rely on a few words: "Come on, prepare paper and pen for me." β
Soon, a subordinate brought the pen and paper, he worked hard to write for a while, and then handed the IOU to Chu Chuyan: "Miss Chu, this is an IOU of 7.5 million taels of silver, we are willing to gamble and lose, but we can't take out such a large sum of silver for a while, presumably no family in this world can take out so much silver in a short time, so please also ask Miss Chu for grace, we will repay the corresponding interest every year, as for the principal, we will find another way, I don't know what Miss Chu wants?"
Here he played a trick, and the IOU said that they owed Zu An 7.5 million taels, not the Chu family. If he owes the Chu family, he really can't repay the debt, but if he owes Zu An, then there are many corresponding means.
Chu Chuyan also noticed the name on it, but this was originally won by Zu An, and she didn't want to take advantage of this: "What do you think?"
Seeing that she asked for her own opinion, Zu Anxin was extremely useful, and as a result, the IOU pretended to be like this: "Oh, it's good that the Mei gang leader has been like this for a long time, I have to toast and not eat and drink, and I am not cheap." β
Rage from Mei Chaofeng +888!
Mei Chaofeng was almost so angry that he vomited blood on the spot, if he hadn't hugged the thighs of the Chu family, where would you have to show off your power in front of Lao Tzu!
He almost couldn't hold back the explosion on the spot and crushed the rabbit cub to ashes, but when he saw Chu Chuyan on the side and the red-robed army led by Yue Shan, he could only endure this breath.
Zu An took the IOU and looked at it: "Hey, only the interest will be repaid, forget it, I have a lot of people, so I will give you a leniency, and the interest will be calculated according to one point, isn't it expensive?"
"It's not expensive. Mei Chaofeng gritted his teeth and said, in all fairness, no matter where it is, a cent of interest is not too expensive, they have let go of several times the interest of the usury loan shark before, and a cent of interest is simply a gift of money.
But why did this come out of the other person's mouth and make people so angry? Especially when he saw the other party's face that was full of compassion and opened up to him.
Rage from Mei Chaofeng +345!
Hearing his words, Zu An spread his hand in front of him: "Since you also agree, then settle the interest now, 7.5 million taels, one cent of interest is 750,000 taels, is it for cash or silver tickets?"
Mei Chaofeng: "......"
Sang Qian: "......"
Xie Xiu: "......"
Pang Chun: "......"
