Gao Mingchen, the eldest lord of the Gao family, has returned to Beijing.

Jixing has been worried all day! In the end, nothing happened. His uncle didn't even ask him, and Ji Xing's heart was finally put down.

How could he sleep until midnight, Ji Xing was ripped off the bed and dragged directly to the ancestral hall.

The tall old man sat on the circle chair, his face darker than the sky outside.

"You wicked obstacle, don't kneel down quickly when you enter the ancestral hall!" Gao Mingchen drank coldly.

Ji Xing hadn't come to his senses yet, he was only wearing a middle coat and was barefoot. The autumn night was cold, and his whole body shrank and knelt tremblingly.

The maids and maids in Jixing's house and the little maids in the yard didn't understand what it was for, because Jixing didn't bring anyone with him every time he went out, so they didn't know what the young master was doing outside. But seeing that the situation was not good, they all thought about finding someone to intercede.

Now that it's late at night, you must not disturb the old lady, the third master and the third lady are the most suitable candidates.

But the eldest master has already thought of this floor, and he has already ordered someone to watch their courtyard strictly, and no one wants to go out.

In the ancestral hall, Gao Mingchen stared at Ji Xing for a long time, and asked, "You honestly say that what have you done during my absence?!" ”

Ji Xing rubbed his eyes, still a little ignorant, and said, "I didn't do anything." ”

Gao Mingchen sneered when he heard this: "You still talk in your dreams!" Do you want me to pour cold water on your head and make you sober?! ”

Ji Xing shrunk his neck and whispered, "That's it...... Went out twice. ”

"Tell the truth before it's too late! For your honesty's sake, I can beat you a few times less. If you just don't say anything, I'll beat you until you say it! Gao Mingchen's face became more and more hideous.

Ji Xing's eyes rolled, thinking that the uncle must know something when he said this, so it was better to confess his guilt directly, so he said: "It's my nephew who is playful, went out to drink a few times, ran a few horses, and then there is nothing else." ”

"Is that really all there is?" Gao Mingchen looked at Ji Xing coldly and asked.

"That's all there is to it, nothing else." Ji Xing nodded again and again and said firmly.

"You dare to swear?" Gao Mingchen chased again.

"I swear!" Ji Xing said.

"Good, good! It's really a good son born and raised by my Gao family! Gao Mingchen gritted his teeth with a smile, his whole body trembled, and his appearance made Ji Xing's heart couldn't help but be furious.

When he had laughed enough, Gao Mingchen stood up, walked to Ji Xing's side, kicked him to the ground, and shouted, "Beast! How dare you fool me! You and I don't know about your private visit to the flower building?! From great-grandfather to your brothers, who has been to that place?! What's more, you still dare to involve the Yongwang Mansion, you don't want to die?! Even if you don't want to die, will the entire Gao family have to be buried with you?! Fortunately, Prince Yong didn't pursue it, otherwise what would have happened to this matter?! ”

Ji Xing was turned out of the old bottom, kneeling there and hanging his head silently. Knowing that he was inevitably beaten, now he only hopes not to implicate Su Haoyi.

Fortunately, the tall old man really didn't know that there was Su Hao's intentions, and he just thought that Ji Xing was doing it alone.

Seeing Ji Xing's appearance, the tall old man was even more angry, looking at his luck for a long time, he asked in a cold voice, "What else do you have to say?" ”

Ji Xing shook his head and said, "Nephew, let me deal with it, these things are indeed done by me, and I have no denial." ”

"I knew you wouldn't shed tears when you didn't see the coffin!" The tall old man hated that iron could not become steel, and ordered left and right: "Set him up for me and hit the board!" ”

The Gao family's family law is strict, and the children who make mistakes have to lie on the bench and be beaten on the board.

The little guy next to the big man, two people pressed one person to fight.

After a few hits, the tall old man scolded: "Didn't you eat? Hard! ”

Ji Xing lay there, not crying or begging for mercy. The more he was like this, the more angry the tall old man became, and ordered the little man who was in charge of the execution: "Give me a hard beating!" ”

At this time, Jixing had already suffered twenty or thirty boards.

The third master and the third lady heard the letter and hurried over.

As soon as they entered the door, the husband and wife both knelt down, and the third master blamed himself for not teaching Jixing well.

"The responsibility is not you, it is that he himself did not learn well, and you did not teach him to do evil." Gao Mingchen said: "Go back to sleep, don't worry about him." ”

Seeing that Ji Xing's face was as white as paper, the third lady hurriedly went over and hugged him, crying in distress.

"Big brother, just spare him! He's just a kid after all. This time it must be a long memory, and I won't mess around anymore. The third master begged bitterly.

The tall old man sighed and said: "Our Gao family's family motto is clear - if you don't act carefully, you will eventually be virtuous." He dared to mess around like this at such a young age, and he might not be able to cause much trouble in the future. I teach him now, and you are distressed. In the future, there will really be a catastrophe and ruin the entire Gao family. How can you and I go to our fathers and fathers? ”

"As the patriarch, the eldest brother has the heaviest responsibility and the most long-term consideration." The third master said: "You taught him a lesson for his own good, but also for the sake of the entire Gao family." But he really can't fight anymore, he can't hold on. What's more, if the movement is too big and disturbs the old lady, it will be bad. ”

Gao Mingchen is a dutiful son, and the reason why he only attacked Jixing at night was because he was afraid that Old Lady Gao would stop him, and he was also afraid that he would be worried and anxious.

As he was talking, the second master also came, and when he saw that Jixing was beaten, he also helped the third master to intercede with the eldest master.

Gao Mingchen saw that this formation could not continue to fight, so he said: "If this rebel is not strictly controlled, he will completely become a wild horse that has escaped. You all stopped me from beating him, but you can't spoil him as you did before, and let him go. What's more, you can't let the old lady see him like this, so as not to be anxious. Send him to Zhuangzi outside the city overnight, let him reflect hard and study hard there, when he really has changed, and when he will return to the house, otherwise I will not be able to explain to the other children of the clan. ”

When everyone heard the tall man say this, they looked at each other and could only agree. After all, the tall master is also in a dilemma in his position, and they must also understand the difficulties of the eldest brother.

Ji Xing was carried to the third master's house, and the third lady gave him medicine while shedding tears.

"Good boy, don't do this again. The eldest lord beats you, and his heart hurts more than anyone else. If you were stupid, he wouldn't be so concerned. It's all because you're the smartest and most handsome of your juniors, and he has high hopes for you. But you are greedy for fun, and you always don't listen to his control. It's also our fault, I can't bear to go against your temperament for anything, for fear that you will be wronged. The third lady cried and said, "No wonder people say that loving mothers are so defeated, I hurt you!" ”

"It's none of my mother's business, it's my son's discouragement." Ji Xing's head was sweating, but he was still as stubborn as a donkey: "I'll go to the Grange and let everyone be clean." ”
