Chapter 55: Oppression
"Beautiful, a little worse than my brother." Ruoxue replied seriously.
The corners of Li Tao's mouth twitched, with a playful smile on his face, he turned his head to look at Mei Zhigao, and saw that he had bruises on his face that had been beaten, and the clothes on his body were new, but this could not hide his embarrassed appearance.
Where is he better looking than this?
He turned his gaze back to her and looked at her fiercely, "This is your brother?" It's not very long! He said.
Mei Zhigao's embarrassing pestle was there for a while, he didn't know whether to sit down, his sister didn't stand up when she saw the prince come in, he was told again, and he suddenly felt full of indignation, and sat down regardless of his ass.
"My brother is naturally the best." Ruoxue said.
"Miss Mei came to find the prince of this world, is there anything wrong? Hurry up, the beauty is still waiting for this son to sleep. Li Tao wrapped his cloak tightly around his body, leaned lazily in his chair, his eyelids drooped as if he was about to fall asleep, he was not in the mood to argue with her.
Ruoxue picked up the tea, slowly scraped the tea foam, and took a sip elegantly, "Tonight, the prince fought in Honghu Pavilion, right?" The people of the prince beat my uncle and younger brother, I don't know how the prince should compensate us? She said.
Li Tao opened her eyes and looked at Mei Zhigao, and then turned her head to look at Ruoxue, since she said about the fight in Honghu Pavilion, it seems that she really hit someone.
He sat up straighter, "I was there to fight, but I didn't beat your uncle and your brother, did you find the wrong person?" He said.
"You can't be wrong." Ruoxue put down the tea bowl, looked at Mei Zhigao and asked, "Second brother, is it the prince who beat you?" You have to see clearly, don't wronged good people. ”
Mei Zhigao looked at the eldest sister and then looked at Li Tao, and said with a stiff neck: "It's him......"
was swept over by Li Tao's eyes, Mei Zhigao immediately changed his tone and said, "It was his people who beat him." ”
"Hahaha......"
Li Tao was amused by his appearance, and after laughing for a while, he turned back to Wan Yun and said, "Call a few of the people who are fighting, and let them recognize whether they have beaten this Young Master Mei." ”
Wan Yun took the order, Mei Zhigao looked at his sister, and asked with his eyes, they won't pay their bills.
"What kind of person is the prince, how can he be the disciple of the fly camp and the dog," Ruoxue smiled: "Yes, the prince?" ”
The corners of Li Tao's mouth twitched, and the stinky girl actually dared to provoke him with words, "This world is bright and fair, hum ......" he said.
Wan Yun came in with six or seven guards, stopped in the clearing, and saluted Li Tao.
They didn't know what the master was doing when he fished a few of them out of the bed, why didn't they look for those who didn't sleep on the patrol, and he didn't say anything when they asked Wantou, so they had to stand here and wait for the master's orders.
"He hit me, and he ...... They beat my uncle......" Mei Zhigao saw the people coming in, so he jumped up and pointed at the noses of several people and shouted.
Ruoxue stroked the mutton fat jade bracelet on her wrist, "What do you want to say?" She said.
Li Tao smiled disappreliantly, "Why did they beat you, what were you doing at the time?" He said.
Mei Zhigao's hand was still pointing at them, turned his head to look at Li Tao and said, "We heard the sound of fighting, so we came out to see the excitement, but they came up and beat my uncle and me without saying anything." ”
"Your men have done it too...... one of the guards defended.
"Shut up......" Li Tao said.
Wan Yun also glared at the guard, and the guard knelt on the ground in an instant, he was wrong! He shouldn't have spoken.
"You did it first, my uncle and I were standing there watching the excitement, and we didn't move at all......," Mei Zhi shouted.
Li Tao glanced at him coldly and said, "How does Miss Mei want Li to compensate?" ”
Ruoxue slowly turned the bracelet, "The prince of the medical fee looks at it, but it is necessary for the prince to come to the door to apologize, otherwise it is not good for outsiders to say that the prince of Jin Zhang is bullying people with power, that will hinder your reputation, what does the prince think?" She said
Mei Zhigao turned around to see his sister, this is to let the prince come to apologize, and in addition to medical expenses, such a requirement is too high! He looked at Li Tao again, opened his mouth and didn't say anything.
His sister has said it, and if he says anything, she and the Mei family will lose face.
"Miss Mei wants this son to come to the door to apologize?" Li Tao's smile was unclear, "Master, I didn't apologize for beating the emperor's son, how big is your family, bigger than the royal family?" He said.
"Our family is naturally no bigger than royal." Ruoxue Yanran smiled, "If the prince and the prince fight, it is equivalent to a dispute between the peers, so naturally there is no need to come to the door to apologize;
However, the people of the prince beat my brother and uncle, this is an act of oppressing the people, and it is a big bully for the small, how can they be treated the same. What does the prince think? She said.
Li Tao squinted at Ruoxue, she was blackmailing him, right? How dare she say it! Let him come to the door to apologize, and treat him as a person!
"This is a mistake, and it has nothing to do with my master." Wan Yun stepped forward and said.
"Does that have anything to do with them?" Ruoxue raised her wrist and pointed at the guards, "Let them go to my house to apologize." She said.
"No way!" Wan Yun stepped forward, which was a disguised disgrace for his master.
"Good. Wan Yun, give Miss Mei a thousand taels of silver for her medical expenses, and send them out. Li Tao said as he stood up and walked outside, waving his hand to stop him from talking any more, and no longer paying attention to the people in the room.
He didn't want to dwell on a trivial matter.
Wan Yun bowed, turned around and went out to get the silver.
Seeing that everyone was gone, Mei Zhigao looked at Ruoxue and asked, "Eldest sister, are we going too?" He didn't expect that the matter would be so simple, not only did King Jin Zhang admit the account, but he also received a lot of money as compensation.
"Well, let's go." Ruoxue stood up, gathered the cloak on her body, and walked out with her feet raised.
Rice Pearl and Yuzuki followed.
Mei Zhigao caught up with Ruoxue in two steps, walked out of the hall side by side with her, and walked a few steps to the courtyard.
The wind of the winter night is biting, and the wisps go straight to the human bones.
The night sky was dark and dreary, there was not a single star, only a few lone lamps under the corridor emitted a faint light.
Ruoxue stopped, glanced back at the hall behind her, and turned her head to look at Wan Yun walking by.
"This is a thousand taels of silver tickets, please Miss Mei put it away." Wan Yun stepped forward and handed over a stack of silver tickets.
Ruoxue glanced at Mei Zhigao and motioned for him to take it.
Mei Zhigao saw his sister's eyes, reached out and grabbed it, looked at the light of the lantern under the corridor, looked at it and counted it, "Sister, it's a thousand taels." He said.
