Chapter 52: Taking the initiative to be punished
Shopkeeper Wu was about to speak, but the little guy downstairs ran up and whispered, and Shopkeeper Wu was shocked: "Master Murong, Mayor Liu is here." ”
It must be because of the rumors of Murong Shan and Liu Qingqing, Mayor Liu came forward for his daughter.
Murong Shan's brows furrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "Which route did Yue'er take?" Prepare me a horse, and I will go after them at once. ”
"This ......"
Shrinking his neck, the shopkeeper Wu looked embarrassed: "Miss Su only needs a map, and she didn't say anything else, probably because she was afraid that I would leak the secret!" ”
Su Yue was very smart, knowing that he would reply truthfully to Murong Shan, how could he possibly say the route he was going to take?
"You go and prepare the horses, and I'll go."
"Nope."
Stopping Murong Shan, Shopkeeper Wu pointed downstairs: "The business of Huiwei Pavilion still needs to be done, and we can't let Mayor Liu and them make trouble here all the time, I hope that Murong Gongzi will solve some problems before leaving." ”
Hearing this, Murong Shan nodded, just right, he also took this opportunity to explain to the people in the town, so as not to make it more troublesome in the future.
went downstairs alone, and saw Liu Qingqing lying in Mayor Liu's arms crying bitterly, and there was no mercy on Murong Shan's cold face.
"Murong Shan, you're finally here."
Liu Shuteng had a calm old face, and said angrily: "Today, all the villagers in the town are here, you must keep your promise to marry my daughter." ”
"Daddy......"
Snorting, Liu Qingqing choked up: "Don't blame Brother Murong, everything is the daughter's fault, it is the daughter who can't help but love Brother Murong, and the daughter who admires him and wants to marry him." ”
Seeing his daughter so wronged, Liu Shuteng was very distressed, Liu Zhuru on the side frowned, and said coldly: "Murong Gongzi, I don't care what excuse you are thinking of to prevaricate our Liu family, but I must warn you, you hugged my sister in public, if you don't marry her, then we can only report to the official." ”
In the face of such an aggressive Liu family member, Murong Shan looked around with cold eyes, and said loudly: "Fellow villagers and neighbors, please listen to my explanation, I quarreled with my wife last night, and I was in a bad mood and drank all night, and it happened that Miss Liu was talking to me in the morning, I recognized the wrong person for a while, and I offended Miss Liu, I can apologize, as for the drunken words to marry her, I hope you don't take it seriously, I, Murong Shan, have only one wife in this life, and I will never marry anyone else." ”
Liu Qingqing frowned secretly, what was so good about that Su Yue, it was worth Murong Shan's maintenance, and it was even necessary for her?
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and Liu Qingqing choked: "Murong Gongzi, I know that Su Yue is a domineering and jealous person, but is it too wrong for you to wronged yourself for her?" ”
Seeing that Liu Qingqing put the responsibility on Su Yue, Murong Shan was very unhappy in his heart.
What the daughter-in-law said is indeed right, this Liu Qingqing is a white lotus green tea, and even wants to give his favorite person the reputation of a jealous woman.
But although Murong Shan was angry, he also knew that he couldn't be too impulsive, he arched his hand and said in a deep voice: "It's wrong to damage Miss Liu's reputation, but I have sworn to marry only one for life, my daughter-in-law is very hearty and generous, and she is definitely not a jealous person." ”
"But ......" Liu Qingqing looked at Liu Shuteng with teary eyes: "Daddy, Murong Gongzi refuses to fulfill his promise, it seems that his daughter can only become a nun, so as not to treat her daughter as a joke after tea and dinner in the future." ”
Receiving Liu Qingqing's eyes, Liu Shuteng sighed: "Daughter, why are you suffering!" ”
"In order not to be a joke of the Liu family, my daughter is worth it."
Shopkeeper Wu happened to come out of the backyard, and Liu Qingqing choked up: "Shopkeeper Wu brought a pair of scissors, I will cut my hair and cut off my love to be a nun now, so as not to be laughed at." ”
"This ......"
Where has Shopkeeper Wu seen this scene, and looked at Murong Shan inquiringly: "Murong Gongzi, why don't you stop it!" ”
Anyway, this Liu Qingqing is also the daughter of the mayor of the town, if she really becomes a nun, it will really become a big joke.
Murong Shan's brows furrowed, and the words that Su Yue had said to him echoed in his mind, and he spoke for a long time, and said, "Miss Liu wants scissors, you go and get them." ”
Whether it's deliberately acting and touching porcelain, just give it a try.
Shopkeeper Wu was stunned for a moment, but seeing that Murong Shan's expression was slightly cold, he had to obey the order to get the scissors.
It wasn't until the scissors were put in her hand that Liu Qingqing realized that her bitter plan had not worked, she sat down heavily on the ground, crying sadly: "I am sincere to you, how can you be so ruthless, you ......"
The voice stopped suddenly, Liu Qingqing fainted, Murong Shan's expression was slightly restrained, Yue'er was right, this Liu Qingqing is really a master of acting.
No matter how embarrassing the situation is, he will find himself a step down.
"Daughter!"
Liu Shuteng looked angry: "Murong Shan, you broke your word and got fat, and you also hurt my daughter." ”
Murong Shan only felt that the Liu family was endless, which was very annoying, and he frowned: "What does Mayor Liu want to do, just say it bluntly, except for letting me marry your daughter, as long as I can make this matter settle, I will definitely do my best." ”
"You!"
Liu Shuteng was angry, and snorted coldly: "Unless you can receive a hundred whips from my Liu family's ancestors, then forget about this matter, the old man doesn't care about you." ”
The reason why he dared to say this was because Liu Shuteng knew that ordinary people couldn't stand a hundred whippings at all, and even if Murong Shan survived, he would only have half of his life left.
"As long as you accept it, this matter will be over?"
"Yes!"
Murong Shan nodded, and took the initiative to lie on the bench: "Let's fight!" "After the beating, he can go to his daughter-in-law, and he doesn't care what these people do, it's worth it!
Secretly scolding Murong Shan for not knowing whether he was alive or dead, Liu Shuteng made a look, and immediately a family member came in with a long whip full of barbs.
Everyone couldn't help but gasp when they saw the sharp barb.
"This whip is full of barbs, and if you shave off the flesh of the belt, where can anyone stand it?"
"There is a generation of ancestors in the Liu family who are in the palace, and I heard that this whip is specially used to whip and punish disobedient palace people, and more than 30 whip people died."
"Two years ago, a relative of mine worked in the Liu family, and I heard that he was killed by this, Murong Shan will not be killed!"
Everyone turned their heads to each other, and their tones were all sighing: "I'd rather be beaten to death than marry the mayor's daughter, it seems that the morning incident was really a misunderstanding." ”
"Smack!"
A whip was drawn, and the clothes on Murong Shan's back were instantly torn, revealing blood.
After more than a dozen whips in a row, Murong Shan's back was already a blur of flesh and blood, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat the size of soybeans, but even if it was so painful, Murong Shan didn't say a word.
The little guy's movements were one after another, and the shopkeeper Wu was shocked to see it, but he knew that Murong Shan was a stubborn person, as long as it was something that was recognized, no one could stop him.
But seeing that there were more and more injuries on his back, Shopkeeper Wu really couldn't stand it, and he said coldly: "Anyway, Su Yue is also our partner in the Aftertaste Pavilion, and Gongzi Song is friendly with Wu County Order, is it too much for Mayor Liu to bully Murong Gongzi like this, do you want to invite Wu County Order now and uphold justice?" ”
"What's the matter with you?"
Liu Shuteng had a cold face: "This hundred strokes were received by him voluntarily, so many people testified, even if the Wu County Order came, he couldn't say anything." ”
