Chapter 776: Righteousness Reaches Out to Help
Once a person has reached a certain level of prominence, it is usually not easy to make enemies and make enemies. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info decide to advance and retreat because of the position, for example, someone in a certain family has become the prime minister, and his status is high enough, right? Then, will he go around offending people like a fool?
Naturally not, if it is really the kind of character that the villain is rampant as soon as he gets his will, then it will not be his turn to be the prime minister, this kind of person is destined not to be successful, even if the ancestral tomb breathes fire and makes him lucky, it will not be too long, and he will be slapped down immediately, and he will lose his power at least and lose his life at worst.
At this height, the reason why he can really decide to make enemies must be because of interests, or for money, or for power, for interests, even if he is as close as a brother drinking a long song at the moment, he will immediately turn the table and turn his face the next moment and put the other party to death.
There is no reason or for a trivial matter to make an enmity with someone, it is not impossible in the circle of the powerful, but it is rare, the more powerful the family, the more cautious it is, because the bigger the family business, the more unable to lose, until the critical moment related to the interests of the family, usually will not easily make enemies for the family.
In the same way, no one in a high position dares to offend casually. There are no fools in this circle, and the calculation and weighing are better than monkeys, and when something happens in front of you, you can immediately know whether this matter is worth turning your face, what kind of consequences may there be after turning your face, what are the pros and cons of your own family, whether the other party is a person you can afford to provoke, etc., often in an instant, it immediately determines the tone of handling emergencies.
It's not that there are no arrogant and domineering people with their nostrils facing the sky, but it also depends on the person to decide the attitude, and it may be okay for the common people, but when you meet someone who is similar to your own identity, you must carefully weigh the pros and cons.
Including Li Su, before he decided to meddle in this matter, he had to ask Liu Xian's background clearly, which is the reason.
And after Liu seemed to know that Li Su was going to intervene, the first thing he subconsciously said was to ask Li Su about the details, which is also the truth.
Among the powerful, it is not easy to make enemies.
…………
…………
"Who is Li Su?" Liu showed a look of confusion.
Immediately, Liu Xian was suddenly startled, he didn't know what he thought, and his expression suddenly became terrifying: "Li Su! That one...... Li Su? ”
Li Su rubbed his nose and said slowly: "Although you can't express it clearly, I still understand what you mean, that's right, I am that Li Su." ”
Grinning at Liu Xian, Li Su said leisurely: "Look, how low-key my answer is, unlike Liu Gongzi, you, as soon as you open your mouth and show your father's title first, I will be pitiful, my father is unknown, and no one knows when it is revealed." ”
Liu Xian still looked at him in shock, and said deliciously: "Jing...... Jingyang County Gong, Li Su? ”
Li Su was a little impatient: "That's right, Li Su, the prince of Jingyang County, there may be many people with the name 'Li Su' in the world, but I dare to guarantee that such a handsome Li Su is the only one in front of you, and there is no other semicolon." ”
Liu Xian's forehead was sweating unconsciously.
Of course, Li Su's name is not unfamiliar to him, because Li Su is too famous.
How many great things he has done, how much credit he has made for the country, etc., Liu Xian doesn't care too much, but Li Su dared to argue with the prince of the East Palace many years ago, dared to openly abolish the subordinate officials of the East Palace in the East City, and even dared to make a long fu to satirize the current son in the main hall......
The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, Li Su only said his name, and Liu Xian immediately knew who he was. You don't need to show your identity, you don't need to put on a show, it's just a name, and it's clear whether the Hou of Anping County can afford to mess with it.
Liu Xian's face suddenly became ugly, and his breathing couldn't help but become short.
Li Su looked at his expression quietly, and then smiled.
"Looks like you've heard of me." Li Su said lightly.
Liu Xian's face was still ugly, but he still tried his best to squeeze out a smile and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Grandpa Li in person, forgive the foolish brother for offending a lot, the foolish brother moved his family into Chang'an, and he didn't know the gold and jade, Grandpa Li forgave and forgave the sin." ”
Li Su also smiled brightly: "The little marquis is polite, if you don't fight, you don't know each other, you and I are fateful, but today I was rude." ”
Liu Xianfei glanced at Hou Jie on the ground, his eyes were complicated, and then he smiled and said: "Grandpa Li, the foolish brother has been friends with you for a long time, and he has been thinking about visiting you since he came to Chang'an, but the foolish brother never thought that you and I met on such an occasion today, which is really ......."
Li Su said with a smile: "Meeting is fate, no matter what the occasion, it doesn't matter." ”
The two of them said some polite words that were not nutritious and meaningless to each other, obviously the topic was awkward and empty, but the expressions of the two of them were extremely serious, deliberately creating a warm and friendly atmosphere, and the smell of gunpowder between the two just now dissipated a lot.
It's just that the smell of gunpowder has not completely dissipated, Hou Jie is still lying on the ground, the matter has happened, and it is not a few polite words that can explain the past.
In the end, Liu Xian's heart lacked a little heat, and he couldn't help but break this embarrassing deadlock and get to the point.
"Grandpa Li, you...... Meet Hou Jie? Liu Xian asked tentatively.
Li Su smiled and shook his head: "I don't know each other very well, and I don't come and go much on weekdays." ”
This sentence is the truth, even if the Hou family did not have an accident before, Li Su did not have much contact with Hou Jie, and people still looked at the eye relationship, the so-called "pouring cover is like the past, white hair is like new" is such a meaning, at first glance I feel that I have a temper, I feel like I am full of heart and gall for a lifetime, I feel that it is not very refreshing at first sight, and at most I am just nodding friends for a lifetime, Li Su and Hou Jie are like this, the Hou family was not defeated before, Hou Jie often went in and out of the Qinglou wine shop to indulge in lust, which can be described as the wind. The pioneer in the flow array is said to have done a few out-of-the-ordinary things, and he was also involved in a wind because of jealousy. The lawsuit of the loss of people's lives was not resolved later, and Li Su has always subconsciously stayed away from this kind of person.
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the two people changed at the same time.
After Liu Xian was stunned for a moment, his expression suddenly relaxed and even joyful, while Hou Jie, who was lying on the ground, looked disillusioned and desperate.
Who knew that Li Su suddenly added another sentence.
“…… However, Hou Jie's father, General Hou Junji, was kind to me. Li Su said slowly.
Liu Xian's joyful expression froze as soon as his face surfaced, but Hou Jie looked at Li Su in surprise.
Liu Xian was silent for a moment, gritted his teeth, pointed at Hou Jie and said, "I don't know what Grandpa Li means......
Li Su said lightly: "I'm not interested in knowing what grudges there are between you, but today, I want to protect Hou Jie, the so-called grudges in the world are nothing more than power, money or beauty, I think, I should be able to afford it." ”
Liu Xian's face became more and more ugly, after all, he was a young man, he couldn't help but be angry, and his tone gradually became gloomy.
"Why does Grandpa Li bother to refute the face of my Anping Marquis Mansion because of this broken family?"
Li Su smiled, looked directly into Liu Xian's eyes, and said calmly: "What you say, can I understand that it is not you who is making trouble for Hou Jie today, but your father, or rather, what you mean by the Marquis of Anping?" ”
Liu Xian was stunned.
This problem is very serious, the meaning of Li Su's words is very clear, if it is a matter between him Liu Xian and Hou Jie, then it is a personal grudge, no matter how serious the private grudge is, it is only a matter between two people, but if this is the meaning of Liu Xian's father, the Marquis of Anping County, then the matter is not simple, it has risen to the grudge between the powerful families, and this grudge is much more serious.
Liu Xian is not a simple-minded gentleman, in fact, the tutor of the powerful is the best and most comprehensive, since he was a child, someone taught him to weigh the pros and cons, and he can make the most appropriate judgment on the situation in the shortest possible time.
The current situation is obviously unfavorable to Liu Xian, because he can't afford to provoke Li Su, not only him, but even his father Anpinghou can't afford to provoke Li Su.
However, Liu Xian seems to have some confidence today, Li Su's words have already said this, and Liu Xian still did not back down.
After being silent for a long time, Liu Xian's complexion changed several times, and finally gritted his teeth, and said in an aggravated tone: "Yes, it is what our Anping Marquis Mansion means." ”
Li Su raised his eyebrows and smiled brighter.
Liu Xian's answer was quite unexpected, Li Su originally thought that helping Hou was outstanding, and the other party would retreat from the difficulty, even if he made a feud from then on, it would be a matter of the future, and he would never tear his face in public, but he never thought about it, but waited for Liu Xian's answer.
Well, now that it has risen to the level of the grudge of the powerful family, the incident can be said to have escalated in an all-round way.
"Anping Hou Mansion?" Li Su muttered, and then said with a smile: "Okay, I underestimate the heroes of the world, it seems that my Li Su's little face can't be sold in front of Anpinghou, since it can't be sold, then good, I won't sell it." ”
The smile gradually faded, and Li Su's eyes suddenly showed a sharp edge.
"Liu Gongzi, what you meant just now, this is the grudge between your Liu family and the Hou family, is this what you mean?"
Liu Xian's face was gloomy, and he nodded: "Yes." ”
Li Su snorted coldly: "The Hou family has fallen, so your Liu family has made up your mind to fall into the well?" ”
Liu Xian knew that Li Su had been completely offended at this time, and there was no room for turning around, so he simply lowered his heart and said coldly: "Grandpa Li's words, I don't dare to talk about it, the four words 'falling into the well', I, Liu Xian, can't afford it, but it's Grandpa Li, you, I don't know anything and just come in sideways, isn't it inappropriate?" ”
Li Su said with a smile: "Liu Gongzi has not been in Chang'an for a long time, and you will know after a long time that I, Li Su, have always been to help relatives and not to help, since I said that I took care of Hou Jie today, then, from now on, the affairs of the Hou family are my business, and any grievances can come at me." ”
After speaking, Li Su didn't look at Liu Xian's angry expression, waved his hand at Fang Lao Wu, and ordered: "Carry Hou Gongzi and send it back to the Hou family, I haven't seen the Hou family's aunt for many days, and I just went to visit it today." ”
Hou Jie's arm was broken, his ribs were also broken, and his eyes were black from pain, but his consciousness was still clear, and when he heard this, he immediately tried to stand up, and said gratefully to Li Su: "Thank you Brother Zizheng for your righteousness......
As he spoke, Fang Lao Wu and the other members had already stepped forward and lifted Hou Jie.
Liu Xian has relied on the identity of the little marquis everywhere all these years, but at this moment he was completely ignored by Li Su, where did Liu Xian, an arrogant and domineering gentleman, have suffered such anger? Young man, where can he care about the consequences when he is impulsive, so he suddenly became angry, and he didn't care about Li Su's identity and power, so he stepped forward and took a step to block the way of Li Su, Fang Laowu and others, and stared at Li Su with gloomy eyes: "Grandpa Li, please think twice, is it worth it to turn against my Hou Mansion in order to protect a broken household?" ”
Li Su glanced at him with some surprise, and then said slowly: "Liu Xian, even if your father Liu Ping is in front of me, I'm afraid I don't dare to speak like this, you...... Is this threatening me? ”
Liu Xianqiang held back his anger and said: "Don't dare, Grandpa Li is serious, but everything has right and wrong, why didn't Grandpa Li even ask who was right and who was wrong, so he leaned towards Hou Jie?" ”
Li Su smiled faintly: "I said that I will take care of the affairs of the Hou family, this sentence means that no matter whether Hou Jie is right or wrong, you can come to me in the Hou Mansion of Anping, as for reasoning...... Well, I was still very reasonable before, but then I was taken bad, and slowly I don't talk about this anymore, okay, I took the people away, if you want to talk about the merits, let Ling Zun An Pinghou come to discuss with me. ”
Liu Xian was furious, Li Su obviously didn't take him seriously, he Liu Xian didn't even have the qualifications to reason with him, and his father Anping Hou was qualified enough, this despised him to the extreme, and he couldn't bear it.
Stopping in front of Li Su, Liu Xian didn't mean to give way at all, stared at Li Su angrily, and said in a calm tone: "Grandpa Li, don't you think it's too much to deceive people?" ”
Entangled until now, Li Su has become more and more impatient.
On weekdays, he has a wide range of good relationships, which can be described as a wide range of contacts, but it does not mean that Li Su does not dare to offend people, even Li Chengqian dared to offend at the beginning, not to mention a small county marquis son now? Even if there is the eldest grandson Wuji standing behind that Anping Hou, so what? dared to offend the prince of the East Palace at the beginning, but now he is naturally not afraid of offending the prime minister.
"Get out of the way, or I'll beat you." Li Su's tone was a little gloomy.
Liu Xian sneered: "Since there is no one in the Anping Marquis Mansion who deceived me, Grandpa Li might as well try?" ”
Li Su's answer was very crisp and decisive: "Okay, just try it." ”
Turning his head and glancing at Fang Lao Wu, Fang Lao Wu suddenly understood, raised his big hand, and led a group of subordinates to rush up, Fang Lao Wu took the lead, took the lead, and first slapped Liu Xian in the face.
With a crisp snap, Liu Xian's eyes widened in astonishment, and he looked at Li Su in a daze. He didn't expect Li Su to be so decisive, and he said that he would do it, just in this Chang'an City, in front of the public, he tore his face with his Anping Marquis Mansion without any scruples.
"You, you...... How dare you ......" Liu Xian trembled and pointed at Li Su, shocked and angry.
Li Su sighed: "Why don't there always be people who don't believe that I really dare to beat people?" Do I have a timid face? Or have I been too low-key and virtuous in the past few years? ”
Seeing that the little marquis was beaten, the entourage behind Liu Xian couldn't help but be shocked, and they couldn't care about Li Su's identity at the moment, so they flocked to the front.
Fang Lao Wu and the other tribes looked cold, they simply let go of their hands and feet, and waved their fists to meet them, the powder keg was finally ignited, and the retinues of the two tribes fought together.
Liu Xian happened to be standing at the center of the fight between the two sides, as soon as he fought, Liu Xian was suddenly affected, and the entourage of the Hou Mansion naturally did not dare to hurt him, but the Li family's subordinates were not so particular, since Li Su had given the order, at this time, he still cared what little Hou Ye was, as far as the eye could see, he was all enemies, and he beat him indiscriminately.
Soon, fists and feet came and went outside the dark alley, and from time to time a figure flew out upside down, Liu Xian was caught in the crowd of people fighting between the two sides, and the agitated yellow dust quickly drowned his figure, only to hear Liu Xian's screams like killing pigs, and finally the sound gradually weakened.
On the combat power of the retinue of the two sides, Fang Lao Wu and others are all veterans of the rest of a hundred battles, and they are so experienced in fighting and fighting that they can compile textbooks, and although Liu Xian's entourage is also from the military, but the combat power is obviously not as good as Fang Lao Wu and others, and it didn't take long for the entourage of the Hou Mansion to be put to the ground by Fang Lao Wu and others, Liu Xian lay on the ground and described himself as embarrassed, disheveled, with scars everywhere, and he had already fainted.
Li Su had been calmly watching the battle from the side, and when he saw that the fight was over and the result he wanted was achieved, he couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, and said with a smile to the fifth elder of the Fang side: "The brothers are not injured, right?" ”
Fang Lao Wu's heart was hot when he heard this, and he immediately smiled: "A little flesh and skin injury, it's not in the way, this Hou Ye's part is not bad, it can be seen that he has experienced the killing array, and it is a little troublesome to clean up." ”
can be praised by Fang Lao Wu who has survived a hundred battles, it can be seen that the skills of the Anping Hou Mansion are indeed extraordinary, Li Su said with a smile: "The fifth uncle and the brothers have worked hard, I didn't lose the face of our Li family today, and after returning home, I quickly dressed my wounds, and everyone went to the account room to pay the consistent money, which is considered a reward." ”
The subordinates were overjoyed and thanked one after another.
After looking at Liu Xian, who was unconscious, Li Su's eyes glanced coldly, and then ordered the subordinates to carry Hou Jie to Hou's house.
The two sides fought in the Chang'an Street Market, naturally it was impossible not to alarm the Wuhou patrolling the street, but although the status of the Wuhou was low, they were the most discerning people in Chang'an City, after seeing Li Su and Liu Xian's posture, the Wuhou suddenly knew that they could not afford to provoke, and they did not dare to interfere in mediation. In the end, watching Li Su and his subordinates go away with the attitude of victors, the Wuhou were silent, and only when Li Su and the others were far away did they dare to disperse the onlookers loudly, and by the way, they hurried to Yongzhou Assassin's Mansion and Anping Marquis Mansion to report the news.
*************************************************************************
Li Susheng walked in front with his hands, and the subordinates carried Hou Jie to follow behind, everyone's expressions were calm, not in a hurry, as if nothing had happened, and a group of people walked on the street and walked out of a bit of leisurely style.
Hou Jie's face was bruised, his right hand was hanging weakly, his expression was very painful, he looked up at Li Su from time to time, and after he stopped talking, he lowered his head and sighed secretly.
Everyone walked for a long time, and Hou Jie said strongly: "Thank you Brother Zizheng for your help, if it weren't for Brother Zizheng's appearance, I'm afraid that the foolish brother would end up badly today." ”
Li Su said lightly: "You don't have to thank me, what I told Liu Xian just now was the truth, I am not familiar with your illness, and the reason why I made a move is for Ling Zun's face." ”
Hou Jie sighed: "No matter what, Brother Zizheng has a life-saving grace for me after all, and Hou Jie will never forget this kindness, and he will definitely repay it." ”
Li Su said slowly: "Hou Jie, what is the purpose of your dispute with Liu Xian today?" I know it's unlikely that you have any deep hatred between you, either because of money or because of beauty, which one are you for? ”
Hou Jie pursed his lips a few times and sighed lightly: "...... Beauty. ”
Li Su smiled: "Then I can't figure it out, Liu Xian is not the kind of fool who has no brains, if you and him are just jealous for a certain girl, with Liu Xian's reason, he can make an enmity with you Hou Jie for beauty, but he shouldn't even dare to offend me, to put it mildly, compared with the weight of beauty and my Li Su, Liu Xian should be easy to weigh the pros and cons, even I dare to offend for the sake of beauty, is that girl really stunning?" ”
Hou Jie suddenly showed a gloomy look, and hesitated for a long time without speaking.
Li Su snorted and said, "That's it, if you don't mention it, I won't ask anymore, I will stop sending you home for a while, and after visiting Lord Lingtang again, I will ......."
Before he finished speaking, Hou Jie hurriedly said: "Brother Zizheng, don't worry, this matter is really a long story......
Li Su yawned and said lazily: "Don't talk about it, everyone is very busy, let's not change the green mountains, let's keep the green water flowing......"
Hou Jie was stunned: "Huh? ”
The four words "a long story" are just foreshadowing before a tirade, okay? You should immediately answer the sentence "I want to hear it" is the right way to open it! You don't play cards according to the routine so much, teach me how to continue the story full of vicissitudes?
When he met someone who couldn't chat, Hou Jie was suddenly very upset, and he felt hurt even more......
Li Su glanced at Hou Jie, who was full of embarrassment, and sighed: "Poor child, you can't say anything in your stomach, are you suffocating?" Forget it, I'll sacrifice it, what grievances do you have between the Hou family and the Hou Mansion of Anping, just say it, huh...... Although it is brief, don't waste too much time, every inch of time is an inch of gold, it is very expensive. ”
Hou Jie's cheeks twitched a few times, thinking of the current dilapidated status quo of the Hou family, and forming a great enmity against the Marquis of Anping, at this time, even if Li Su stopped him from saying it, he would say it all like pouring beans into a bamboo tube.
"Brother Zizheng, Liu Xian's dispute with me today is indeed because of a woman, but it is not just for a woman......" Hou Jie paused, and then said: "This woman is a singer of the Qinglou, I met her with Liu Xian three years ago, Liu Xian and I are quite fond of her, Liu Xian wants to buy her into the mansion as a concubine, my Hou family was not dilapidated back then, and I was also a ...... Young and sparse, so ......"
Hearing this, Li Su suddenly raised a little interest, no way, the story is too tempting, and it will talk about the drama immediately......
"So, you bought that kabuki back as a concubine?"
Hou Jie nodded bitterly: "Yes, at that time, my Hou family was the Guogong Mansion, and the Liu family was only a county marquis, although Liu Xian hated me to the core, he had nothing to do with me, so he had to swallow his anger." ”
Li Suyou sighed, it's no wonder, Hou Jie is the enemy of wife-snatching hatred for Liu Xian, the kind that doesn't share the sky, it coincides with the fall of the Hou family, and it is certain that Hou Junji can't turn over, Liu Xian can wait for the time to take revenge, today Liu Xian didn't dismantle Hou Jie into eight pieces, but just broke his bones, which shows that Liu Xian is a ...... A humble gentleman?
