Chapter 078: Temptation
Early in the morning of the second day, Li Mao called Shangqingmo and went to Zhang Ren, the secretary of the military government, to inquire about the news, Zhang Ren asked in surprise: "How did you offend Yan Da Fatty, I saw Yan Xiu yesterday, just asked, and he was furious and scolded me." Li Mao smiled bitterly and told what happened that day, Zhang Ren said: "There is a sentence that I shouldn't have asked, but my wife told me that I shouldn't be careless, so I took the liberty of asking, please don't mind Maohua." ”
Li Mao said: "It's okay for my brother to speak directly. ”
Zhang Rendao: "Does the lady of the Wen family have some appearance? ”
Li Mao was taken aback, and said carefully: "She is from a family, has an elegant temperament, is well-maintained, and does have some charm." ”
Zhang Ren frowned and said: "It's bad, you don't know, in addition to being famous for being fat, this Yan Yan is also famous for his lust, but he is not known to outsiders." This old man has a quirk, he loves a charming young woman in his early thirties, I guess he took a fancy to Mrs. Wen and wanted to kiss Fang Ze, so he deliberately snubbed you and forced her to obey. ”
Qingmo lost his voice and said: "No, he is a dignified marquis, and there are hundreds of prostitutes in his family, how can he still be good." Zhang Ren said with a smile: "Green vegetables and radishes have their own love, little brother, you don't like to eat green vegetables, how do you know that others don't like it?" ”
Zhang Ren stayed for dinner at night, Li Mao refused, and returned to the inn with Qingmo with a heavy heart, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Mo Qi running over panting, his left arm was wrapped in a white cloth, and there were several bruises on his face. Li Mao's heart suddenly lifted, and he asked anxiously: "What's wrong, sister-in-law of the Wen family." ”
Mo Qi's tears suddenly fell, and he said: "In the afternoon, the Yan Mansion sent someone to invite Madame, I advised her to wait for you to come back, but she didn't listen, so I went with them, and at the door, they stopped me and didn't let me in, so I fought with them." He was stabbed, eaten with a stick, and fell unconscious. It was the guy who drove me back. ”
Li Mao's brain buzzed, and his blood suddenly surged. Qingmo scolded angrily: "Lao Er did it, **** his." Mo Qi also felt that the matter was serious, and asked urgently: "What should I do?" ”
Li Mao said: "Eat." ”
The two were taken aback, and Li Mao said, "Call a private room, let's eat." Seeing that his face was as black as iron, the two didn't dare to ask more, so they hurriedly called a private room and ordered a table of wine and food, Li Mao sat down and poured himself two glasses of wine and ate two mouthfuls of food. He dropped his chopsticks and said, "Let's go." ”
Qingmo asked, "Where to go?" ”
Li Mao's eyes revealed a murderous aura: "Go to Yan's house and save people." ”
Yan Su is indeed worried about the Wu family, since he saw it for the first time, his heart was pounding, but he was afraid of Li Mao's majesty, afraid of the wolf-like eyes of the Mo Qi supernatural power, and did not dare to make a mistake, afterwards he thought about the nest, in his own home, to the mouth of the fat can not be eaten, in a fit of anger he made the housekeeper Yan Xiu into a punching bag, beat and scolded, tossed panting before giving up, he secretly sent someone to keep an eye on Li Mao and Wu, Li Mao went out, here sent someone to call Wu, Wu thought that his husband was saved, panicked and rushed over, When they arrived at the Yan Mansion, the Yan family blocked the door of the Moqi Divine Power on the grounds that the inner house did not allow men to enter, and on the grounds that the head of the family only saw the Wu family, Aunt Qi was also stopped.
The Wu family ******** all on the clerk, and they didn't notice anything wrong at all. In the inner house, Yan Su told him that the clerk embezzled public funds, the evidence of the crime was conclusive, and the crime should be beheaded, Wu listened like thunder, and was speechless there, Yan Su took the opportunity to hand her a glass of medicinal wine and persuaded her to drink it, Wu refused to drink, Yan Su sneered: "I can't lose you with my eldest brother, just look for me if you have something in the future." Wu was forced by him, drank wine against his will, and then fell unconscious.
Yan Kun used to be Li Zheng's follower, known for his bravery, after the official became bigger, the wine hurt his body, and his strength was not as good as before, holding Wu felt difficult, and after thinking about it, he put the two tables together and prepared to fight in all directions.
He didn't know where to put the charcoal, so he looked all over the house, and the upper and lower rows of the frozen ones were fighting, and at the end he found that the charcoal basket was placed under the porch. His tossing really delayed a lot of time, and when Li Mao and the three jumped into the backyard, Yan Su was lying on the edge of the fire to add charcoal. Wu was lying on a bed made of tables, fully clothed and unviolated.
When he was humming excitedly with his head down, he was suddenly patted on the shoulder, he looked back, his eyes suddenly darkened, Li Mao punched him in the face, Yan Su shook it, covered his face and retreated sharply, went to grab the knife on the confession, he had already tripped over Qingmo and tripped to the ground, a dog gnawed, and broke two teeth.
Before he could get up, Mo Qi's divine power stepped on his back again, and the knife in his hand was ready to stab. Li Mao took off his coat and wrapped himself around the Wu family, and was about to walk away, when he saw that Mo Qi's supernatural power was about to commit murder, he shouted: "Spare his life." ”
Mo Qi Shentong put away the knife, lifted Yan Kun, opened the bow left and right and slapped seventeen or eighteen times, and Yan Kun's face was swollen like a pig's head. The commotion in the house sounded a different meaning to the eyes outside the wall, the loyal people couldn't help but smile, and the conscience shook their heads, but the views of the two were surprisingly consistent, that is, the movements in the inner courtyard were all caused by Yan Yan's infringement on the Wu family, and they were not qualified to interfere.
In this way, Yan Su froze in the yard all night, the night in Yunzhou in late spring and early summer was still very cold, and in the early morning of the second day, when the Yan family rescued Yan Kun, Yan Su was already dying, and only half a breath was left.
When Wu woke up, he was taken aback, and hurriedly checked his body, but saw that he was lying in the inn, and Aunt Qi was guarding him, so he asked, "Why did I come back." Aunt Qi said: "You, if you can't drink, drink less, and if you lose your temper after drinking, it makes people laugh." Wu's face turned red, and when he thought about it, he was covered in cold sweat.
She asked Aunt Qi: "When Yan Fu sent me back, what did you say, why don't I remember anything?" ”
Aunt Qi said with a smile: "I said, I said that Lang Jun's matter was originally a false accusation, and there is no substantiated evidence, so he will be released another day." ”
Wu Shi breathed a sigh of relief and sat in a daze, she didn't remember what happened last night, but she didn't want to think about it deeply. Wu Shiku waited for a day, at dusk, Zhang Ren sent someone to call Li Mao to get the clerk out, he was locked up in prison for half a month, although he did not suffer much grievances, the clerk still felt like a new life, the moment he walked out of the cell, he looked up at the blue sky, took a deep breath, then knelt on the ground, touched the ground with his forehead, and refused to move for a long time.
And seeing the haggard Wu family, the clerk didn't feel the old tears rushing, and an old couple and wife hugged and cried in front of Li Mao and the family, and then hugged and kissed.
At that moment, Li Mao and Aunt Qi all chose to walk away silently.
In his busy time, Li Mao went to Zhou Yangyang's house and sent a big gift.
He came to Yunzhou to get in touch with Zhou Yang and find a shelter for the upcoming wind and rain. Zhou Yang is a eunuch, once in the idle stable shogunate as a small envoy, Ziqing supervised the military envoy Zheng Tu was the judge of the idle stable at that time, the two have been friends for a long time, intimate abnormal, after the Tang Dynasty, the idle stable made to replace the Taifu Temple, in charge of the national horse administration, cold weapon era, cavalry is an important strategic force, and horse is one of the most important equipment of the cavalry, the status of the stable is heavy, the power is very great. Zheng Tu can make the shogunate a judge in the idle stable, which shows his influence, and he hung this line, no matter how big the wind and rain in Gushan Town are, Li Mao can also have a room to move.
The relationship with the clerk has also made a substantial leap because of this incident, before, the two could only say that they were familiar, and they were familiar with each other, and they were not even serious friends, but now they have stepped over the relationship of ordinary friends and become close friends who can make friends.
Wencheng and his wife invited Li Mao to a meal, there were only three people, but Wencheng was still drunk, and after getting drunk, he held Li Mao's hand and said a lot of things that should be said and should not be said. Li Mao was not drunk at all, but his face was blushing and ugly.
He listened to half of what the clerk said, lost half of it, believed half of it, and didn't believe half of it.
When he woke up the next day, Wen Cheng regretted his gaffe last night, and he chose to be silent and not admit many things he had said, but there was only one thing he remembered and absolutely admitted, that is, he promised to marry his niece Wen Fei to Li Mao.
Li Mao believed that this was just a drunkard, drunk and ignorant, and he thought that although the name Wen Fei was still heard, her appearance was said to be very beautiful, she was born in a scholarly family, and she should also be a knowledgeable person, but she was the niece of Wen Cheng, if she really married her, wouldn't she immediately be a generation shorter than Wen Cheng? Is this brotherhood that has been established with great difficulty fall apart and disappear in an instant, this matter is not worth it.
