Chapter 181: The Gentleman
In the private room on the second floor of the Hibiscus Wine Shop, a group of young children of wealthy nobles are laughing and listening to music, and they are very happy.
Wu Gongzi's right hand held the beautiful woman into his arms, and he smiled forward and backwards, holding the wine glass in his left hand while constantly toasting to Xia Gongzi on the main seat, and from time to time said some flattering words, and the man in green next to Wu Gongzi also echoed.
Xia Gongzi also held a beautiful woman in his arms, and the two laughed seriously, and whenever Xia Gongzi saw someone toasting during the banquet, he also smiled and raised a glass casually.
After a few rounds of wine and songs, an anxious look gradually appeared on the face of the man in green during the banquet, and it was already two o'clock.
Wu Gongzi saw the embarrassed look on the man in green, so he raised his glass and smiled: "What's wrong with Li Gongzi?" Is this in a hurry to get home or is there something important? ”
Li Gongzi bowed and said: "There is still something at home, and it is not too early now." Then he gave a deep salute to Xia Gongzi, "Xia Gongzi, there is still something in the younger brother's family, so I will lose my company first." ”
Xia Gongzi was quite displeased, "Eh! Brother Li Xian, we meet for the first time, and we have to be drunk and not return to enjoy ourselves today, why do we have to withdraw now? Then he raised his glass and stood up and said, "Come on, let's have a toast first." ”
Li Gongzi looked at Wu Gongzi embarrassedly, as if pleading with him. Wu Gongzi understood, and hurriedly stood up and raised his glass to Xia Gongzi and said, "Brother Xia, this glass of wine will be drunk by the junior brother for Li Gongzi!" After saying that, he drank it all, and then raised his eyebrows at Xia Gongzi, half teasing and half exculpating Li Gongzi, "Li Xiandi's wife is a ruthless character, if he doesn't go back this time, presumably his wife will come to tear this place down." ”
Xia Gongzi laughed loudly when he heard this, pointed at Li Gongzi with an empty cup and asked with a smile: "Is this really the case?" ”
Li Gongzi was stunned for a moment, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Hmm...... Yes yes...... The wife at home is a ruthless character, so I can't help it! ”
"What's the origin of such a cruel wife?" Xia Gongzi sneered rather playfully, "It would make our Kyoto giant Li Gongzi so afraid?" ”
Wu Gongzi said: "Brother Xia doesn't know, his wife is the granddaughter of Lord Shangshu Yan of the Ministry of Rites!" ”
"Oh!" Xia Gongzi let out a long sigh, "It turned out to be his old man's granddaughter!" No wonder Li Xiandi would be afraid of him. I heard that their family style is strict, Lord Yan has worked hard for me, and he has won the favor of the emperor, and his son is also a long history in other states, which is considered an official family! After that, he said to Li Gongzi, "Brother Li Xian, what a blessing!" ”
Li Gongzi laughed and said: "See and laugh, you don't have to be your father's Lord Shangshuxia!" In the future, I will have to give you more support, Brother Xia. After that, he said to Xia Gongzi, "Since that's the case, then I'll leave first." ”
"Good, good!" Xia Gongzi didn't stop him, waved his hand and said, "Go ahead......"
After Li Gongzi walked out of the room under the guidance of the little man behind him, Xia Gongzi, Wu Gongzi and the others looked at each other and smiled, they didn't expect that such a son of a capital tycoon would be afraid of his wife, which was really ridiculous.
After laughing, I suddenly heard a commotion outside the hallway, as if someone was fighting and shouting outside the house. Xia Gongzi's face sank, and he shouted at the entourage at the door and asked, "What's going on outside?" Why is it so noisy? Blow them all away! ”
Wu Gongzi hurriedly smiled and stopped: "No need, no need, let's eat our food, let the outside make trouble, presumably someone is drunk and drunk, don't pay attention to it!" ”
The attendants at the door saw that the master continued to drink and did not speak, and they all continued to stand in place and wait.
Under this king, especially this hibiscus wine shop is a place where dignitaries and dignitaries often come and go, and those who dare to make loud noises here must be people with great backgrounds, so Wu Gongzi will do this more than one thing is better than one less, lest the next person go out and offend people, then he can't afford to be guilty. Xia Gongzi also knew this reason, since Wu Gongzi gave him the steps, he didn't want to pay attention to it, so he continued to eat and drink.
But that's it, the commotion outside is getting louder and louder, Xia Gongzi couldn't hold back any longer, stood up quickly, and shouted at the two entourages at the door: "You go out and see what's going on outside!" ”
After the two entourages went out, Wu Gongzi hurriedly beckoned Li Gongzi to sit down and continue drinking, and several women around him were also frightened by this formation.
After a while, one of the attendants ran into the room with his face covered, and said pitifully: "The eldest young master is not good, Li Gongzi was beaten outside the corridor." Then he pointed to the bruised left side of his face and said, "Even the small ones have been beaten......"
Xia Gongzi slammed his fist on the table, and the music behind the screen stopped, and then Xia Gongzi stood up and scolded: "Damn, who is so bold that even my people dare to move!" Let's go ......" After saying that, he angrily led four or five followers to run out of the corridor, and Li Gongzi also led a small servant to follow.
At this time, outside the corridor at the door, but seeing that four or five people dressed as servants not far away were beating Li Gongzi and his little servant, Xia Gongzi saw that there was another one of his entourage, who was also poisoned by them, and couldn't help but get angry, pointing to the group of people in front of him and scolding: "Where did you get the dirty groceries, don't stop." ”
Several servants really stopped, looked up at Xia Gongzi, and saw that he was dressed decently, presumably he was also a wealthy man, and he was afraid that he would miss the wrong person, so he had no idea for a while, and turned his head to look at the person on the other side, Xia Gongzi also followed their eyes, and stood on the opposite side of the corridor with a descendant appearance, looking only in his early twenties, with silk and satin on his body, and jade hanging from his waist, which made people feel that the clothes should be worth a lot of money, and he should also be a rich man. Xia Gongzi didn't want to be timid, coughed twice, and after taking two steps, he pointed at the man and shouted, "Is it the person you beat me?" ”
Li Gongzi and the three of them had been beaten to the point that their noses were blue and their faces were swollen at this time, and seeing Xia Gongzi coming was like seeing a savior, and the three of them crawled to Xia Gongzi in a row. Li Gongzi pointed at the man angrily: "Yes, yes! It was his order, and I was just passing by in front of their house, and accidentally bumped into him, and I was beaten by him so badly. ”
The man did not show weakness, and looked invincible, "That's right, I beat it, but your people don't have long eyes, I just discipline and discipline for you, master!" ”
Seeing him so unreasonable, Xia Gongzi said angrily: "Who are you?" Who lent you the courage to dare to go wild here! ”
Several of the man's servants were already standing behind him, and they immediately replied angrily: "Name our young master, I'm afraid it will scare you!" ”
Xia Gongzi smiled coldly and said, "In this capital, unless the emperor, no one dares to say that it can scare me!" ”
