Chapter 351: Transaction (3)
He coughed in embarrassment, and then said, "What are you crying about?" I didn't say irresponsible, you marry your daughter to me, the best of both worlds. ”
Before the words fell, the girl's mother suddenly got up, pointed at Rambo's nose and scolded: "You brute, you are already the mud in the mud puddle, and you still want to pull others along, it's—it's—it's—"
Obviously, he was so angry that he couldn't find the words to curse the beast in front of him for a while.
As he was talking, a woman's scream came from the oblique thorn, and before Qi Xiao could react, a woman in gray cloth rushed over without a head or face, pushed away Qi Xiao who was standing aside, and then pounced on Rambo like crazy.
After carefully looking up and down, he was relieved to make sure that there was no damage in the slightest.
The girl's mother, seeing that Zheng 2's son was defending her son like this, was even more angry, and said sharply: "I really think that I am still an official of the capital - no wonder His Majesty the Emperor wants to exile you, I will go to the government to sue you!" ”
Zheng turned around, and said with disdain in his eyes: "That is, our family is in the middle of the road, otherwise your daughter is so beautiful, even if she comes to our house to carry shoes, she is not worthy-"
Qi Xiao couldn't help frowning, he didn't have much contact with this family, but he didn't want the original high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Beijing to be like a shrew in the market.
Rambo seemed to be very tired of Zheng like this, and turned around to leave, but she didn't want to be pulled by the girl's mother, she hurriedly said: "You can't just leave, this matter has not been resolved, don't think about leaving." ”
The people around him have begun to talk about it, some people can't see it, and stop Rambo from leaving, Qi Xiao looked at the girl kneeling on the ground and crying, and couldn't help but feel compassion, he stepped forward carefully and helped the woman up.
Zheng happened to see it, and sneered: "Look at your daughter, she pulls and pulls with other men on the street, it can't be said that her son seduced first-"
Qi Xiao didn't expect Zheng to bite back, he was also a frivolous age, and he couldn't stand such a spicy woman for a while, so he also said angrily: "Before the matter is resolved, no one is allowed to leave, and now the adults are not here, but as criminals, it is not right for you to harass the people and good people, and now you are still arguing with strong words, it is better to go to prison for a few days first, and reflect on whether you are wrong." ”
As soon as he heard that he and Rambo were going to be arrested and sent to prison, where was Zheng willing to obey, he sat on the ground with a puff, and said to the sky: "Today's emperor just wants to eliminate dissidents, force the four princes to step down, and brutalize Zhongliang, and now he secretly knows that people want to get rid of us, and we are not convinced——"
Zheng cried bitterly, and his voice was higher than the other, and he really had a bit of accusation.
Rambo didn't want to be embarrassed here with the Zheng family, so he wanted to leave after pushing through the crowd, but there were also people in the crowd who couldn't stand it and stopped them from leaving, and the scene became more and more chaotic for a while.
While he was making trouble, he heard a heavy male voice say, "Okay, what are you doing here?" ”
Zheng's voice stopped abruptly, Xu stopped too eagerly, and his throat was still gurgling.
She looked behind her with some fear, and even the expression on Rambo's face changed slightly, obviously restraining a lot.
Before he could react, he heard a loud slap in the face, and Rambo looked at his father in disbelief.
Zheng struggled to get up and protected in front of Rambo, crying, "Master, how can you beat Bo'er? He is your biological son, our Lan family only has such a single seedling, Xin'er's life and death are uncertain, Lan Ruo's slut has no news, if the master can't even protect Bo'er, I'm afraid our Lan family really has no hope. ”
Lan Zhili lightly glanced at his wife who had been writing for more than ten years, and his only son, although he couldn't bear it, he still ignored it, walked straight to Qi Xiao's face, and arched his hand: "Dog bastard, do such a thing, if you really want to put him in prison, I have nothing to say, but if this girl wants to reconcile, what do you ask, but if we can do it, we will definitely do it." ”
Qi Xiao looked at this powerful minister who was once under one person and above ten thousand people, even if he ended up like this, he could be so calm, and he couldn't help but be vigilant in his heart.
Sure enough, Lan Zhili took two steps forward, not knowing what to say to the girl's parents, only to see their expressions change greatly, looked at the people around them, and then looked at Qi Xiao, as if they were making some trade-offs.
Qi Xiao couldn't hear what the two said, so Fang wanted to step forward to dissuade him, so he saw the girl's father and said, "It's only like this——"
Then he turned back to Qi Xiao and said, "I'm sorry little brother, this matter is even a trouble for you, and we don't plan to pursue it-"
There were bursts of sighs around, Qi Xiao didn't seem to know why this person would change his mind temporarily, but obviously the girl and the woman were unwilling, and the girl almost cried, and said, "Father-don't you want to be the master for your daughter?" ”
The man sighed, pulled his daughter in distress and said, "Father is doing this for your good, go back first." ”
said that he walked out of the crowd with his daughter, and the people around him saw that there was no more excitement to see, so they all dispersed in twos and threes.
Zheng saw that his son did not have to go to jail. His husband solved the matter in a few words, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, got up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, raised his face at Qi Xiao, and turned away.
There were a lot of people around, but they were all curious, what did Lan Zhili say, and the matter was solved in a few words.
Qi Xiao also wondered, but more importantly, he didn't like the family.
He didn't care about anything, he just looked at the city gate all day long, checked the people and goods coming and going, but even so, he had more or less heard of this family, who was once a very powerful minister, and then came here after being convicted, because Xizhou City was located on the border of Daqiang, and often needed to strengthen the city walls, many exiled people would arrange to come here to work as coolies, or wait until there was a war, let these people go to death, and buy time for others to retreat.
Although Qi Xiao also felt that it was cruel, he was not unreasonable, if these people could be exiled here, they would definitely have innocent people's blood on their hands, and this would be their repayment.
But this family is different, they have never been seen in the team, although they are also the same coarse tea and light rice as everyone, but they have not contributed much.
Qi Xiao didn't understand some of the collusion of interests in officialdom, and he only felt that this Lan Zhili was not simple.
If you fall into such a situation, you can even ask for a place to live and live.
Qi Xiao's companion saw that Qi Xiao had not returned for a long time, and was worried that someone would make trouble, and Qi Xiao alone would not be able to deal with it, so he came down to look for him.
As soon as he arrived, he saw Qi Xiao standing in place in a daze, looking in the direction of the west of the city.
He slapped Qi Xiao on the back and said, "I said you kid, why did you come here to be lazy?" ”
Qi Xiao came back to his senses and smiled embarrassedly: "I'm just thinking about things, I'm distracted." ”
The man mysteriously approached a little closer, and said jokingly, "Do you still remember that girl?" ”
Qi Xiao saw that the more he talked, the more outrageous it became, he pushed him away with a smile, and went in the direction of the city gate.
On the other side, Lan Bo and Zheng followed Lan Zhili back home, although it was home, but it was just a dilapidated small courtyard, and even the back kitchen of the former Prime Minister's Mansion was several times larger than this, barely able to live in these few people.
When I entered the courtyard, I saw Lan Zhili stop walking and stand with his hands in his hands.
Zheng sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly stepped forward with caution and said softly: "Master-"
"Kneel—" Lan Zhili's voice was cold and shivering.
Zheng subconsciously weakened his legs, so he knelt at Lan Zhili's feet, and then turned around and motioned for Lan Bo to kneel down quickly.
Rambo was a little reluctant, but due to Lan Zhili's usual coercion, he still knelt down obediently. Lan Zhili looked at Jiang Shi, who was waiting beside him, and said in a deep voice: "Bring a wooden stick—"
Jiang Shi was stunned at first, and when he reacted, he hurriedly went to the door and took a wooden stick the thickness of a baby's arm and handed it to Lan Zhili's hand.
Zheng has followed Lan Zhili for so many years, so he naturally knows Lan Zhili's habits, and quickly hugged Lan Zhili's leg and said, "Master-what are you going to do?" Master-no--Bo'er is sick, if there are three long and two short, the concubine body will not survive, please be merciful, we will have this one child left-"
Lan Zhili raised her foot and slammed it into Zheng's heart, and she fell to the ground with a sigh of pain, and moaned in pain.
Lan Zhili didn't look at Zheng, but just walked in the direction of Lan Bo, seeing that Lan Zhili was really angry, where did Lan Bo dare to move, so he had to ask for help and look at Zheng on the side.
However, Zheng couldn't get up now, so he had to whimper and cry, Jiang stood aside and was indifferent, Lan Zhili raised the wooden stick in his hand and hit Lan Bo's body hard.
Although Rambo went to the barracks early to practice, but because of the frustration of officialdom and the stubborn disease, this body is not as good as before, this stick down, Rambo only felt that the place where he was beaten seemed to be burned by fire, hot and painful, he endured the fishy sweetness that kept churning up in his throat, and smiled: "Father, why are you so angry?" ”
Lan Zhili's face was expressionless, but the movements in his hands kept stopping, falling down one by one, as if there was not a living life under the stick, but a rag bag.
Jiang Shi also had a lively mentality at first, and gradually even she noticed that something was wrong, Lan Bo's back was already blurred with flesh and blood, but Lan Zhili's subordinates still didn't stop, could it be that Lan Zhili was determined to beat Lan Bo to death?
