Chapter 15: Cowards
In the Wang clan's meeting room, Wang Liang carefully looked at the clothes on the young man of the Hu clan and said, "What's your name, Hu Buping!" What is the material of this clothing made of, it doesn't seem to be animal skin, it's very breathable! ”
"It's Hu Guangping."
"Oh! Hu Guangping, yes, yes, I left you to be a guest of our Wang clan? The main thing is to introduce you to our customs, the folks in the big hometown, always fight for some trivial things, it is not worth it, my goal is that in the future, our two families will be one, everyone is blessed and enjoy the same difficulties, harmony and common prosperity, isn't it good? Wang Fence said half-seriously.
Hu Guangping disagreed: "I was kidnapped by you, and you don't have a fair way to talk about these things at all." ”
Wang Fence was furious and said: "Don't tell me anything fair, last time I was killed by Hu Fuqi and my two guards, and I was seriously injured, but it was just that we chased a white-striped deer in Shanyin and ran across Shanyang, even if we immediately withdrew, but we still paid the price of two lives." ”
"Is that fair? I've led people to reason with your patriarch over and over again, but they all drove us out like garbage, is it fair? Fairness is only a tragedy that the weak say, but can never achieve. ”
There was a knock on the door, and a middle-aged woman walked in and said, "The deputy captain is looking for me?" ”
"Well, you are the one in our clan who knows how to make clothes, let's see what materials are used for his clothes, I look pretty good." Wang Fence said with interest.
The middle-aged woman took a closer look, touched it with her hands but was not completely sure, and then sniffed it carefully: "This seems to be the smell of the hemp pole that we burned, well, yes, the hemp pole can indeed appear some filamentous things when soaked in water." ”
Wang Fence was pleasantly surprised when he heard this: "Then you go to study and study, if I have any news, I will tell you, it is uncomfortable to wear fur on this hot day, this kind of clothes are good haha." ”
The middle-aged woman said, "Eh, the deputy captain is still thoughtful, so I'll think about it." After saying that, he left without stopping.
Wang Fence continued: "You stay here for the past two days, as long as you get back what I want, I will let you go back, you can mention anything you want, don't make it bad, I haven't come back last time with two lives." After instructing the team to change guards throughout the day, Wang Fence left the chamber.
However, as soon as he returned home for more than ten years, the patriarch Wang Tuohai took the captain Wang Changqiu and another deputy captain, Wang Kuan, to Wang Fence's house.
Wang Fence was drinking cold water with a water scoop, and when he saw the two of them in a hurry, he didn't have to guess to know what was going on.
Before Wang Fence put down the water scoop, the patriarch Wang Tuohai crackled endlessly: "Wang Fence, Wang Fence, your guts are getting fatter and fatter!" Do you still have me as a patriarch in your eyes? ”
"The second young patriarch of the Shanyang Hu clan who tied up, such a big matter, who made you good at advocating? Yes? Don't you know what kind of virtue Hu Fuxian is? He can't do anything, he can't play with any cruel methods, you, what are you really doing, go and poke that hornet's nest! ”
Wang Fence patiently explained: "Patriarch, listen to me, our Wang clan and the Nahu clan are a Shanyin and a Shanyang, and they have been peaceful for a long time, but as soon as the incident happened last time, we lost two guards, who are all good hunters and pillars of the clan." ”
"You don't dare to speak out, I went to the door to ask for an explanation, but was kicked out like a dog, until today, I often hear their family members complaining in the clan, this matter caused the whole clan to panic, are saying that we are incompetent, after that, Hu Fuqi relied on the strength of the force, crossed the yin and yang corners, wantonly hunting and gathering in our Shanyin, everyone dared to be angry and dare not speak."
"My Wang Fence is a bloody man, I can't swallow this breath, I have to give them an explanation from the Hu family, the soft one is useless, only the hard one. If he Hu Fuxian has any ruthless tricks, I will take them one by one. ”
"How can you play with Hu Fuxian with that little bit of paste in your brain, not to mention that there are many people in the Hu family, more warriors, advanced weapons, rich materials, can we compare with our comprehensive strength?" Wang Tuohai said bitterly, "Don't be the captain of you, Ah Kuan, hurry up and prepare a tiger skin, ten leopard cat skins, and a hundred catties of dried pork, and send them back with Hu Guangping." The sooner the better. ”
"Yes." Wang Kuan glanced at Wang Fence and reluctantly went to prepare.
Wang Liang said anxiously: "Patriarch, aren't you like this to grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige?" After that, we may not really be able to hold our heads up. ”
Wang Tuohai stared at Wang Fence viciously and said: "This is all a good thing that you pig brain did, if this matter is over, it is better to say, if Hu Fuxian has to be investigated, I am afraid this matter will not be good." You don't want to stay at home anywhere these two days. After saying that, he slammed the door and walked out.
Wang Fence froze in place, pouting, shaking his head and laughing, speechless, but he had expected it.
The next day, in the evening, Wang Fence was confined for the past two days, and it was rare to sit at home to recuperate, and a guard rushed over and shouted: "The deputy team is not good, the deputy team is not good!" ”
Wang Fence frowned in disgust and said slowly: "The deputy team is very good, you can tell me something slowly." ”
"When the Kuan deputy team came back, Hu Fuqi not only did not accept the materials we sent, but also injured our two brothers, and said, ......"
"What else?"
"He also said that this time he moved his eldest brother's son, and he was declaring war on their Hu clan."
Wang Fence pondered for a few moments and said, "What is the attitude of the patriarch now?" ”
"The patriarch has now summoned the three captains and the Martial Sect and the two clan elders to publicly judge you at the ancestral shrine." As he spoke, the team's voices gradually became quieter, worried about angering Wang Fence.
"Okay, I'll pack up and come over right away, you go first."
The team member was embarrassed and said, "The patriarch said that he must go with you." ”
"Hmph, have you prevented me from doing this? Okay, then I'll change my clothes, and you go and wait at the door. Wang Fence said impatiently.
The guards didn't dare to say anything more, so they had to do so.
When he came to the ancestral hall, Wang Fence saw that the ancestral hall was surrounded by the guards of the captain Wang Changqiu, and this posture had already made him feel a little cold, which was obviously going to take him down.
"Patriarch, bring the king's fence."
Wang Tuohai looked at the Wang fence standing in the middle of the ancestral hall, waved his hand to let the guards who led the way leave, and then the guards inside the door closed the door of the ancestral hall.
"Fence, this time you kidnapped Hu Guangping, according to Ah Kuan's report, Hu Fuxian didn't even see anyone, and directly made Hu Fuqi refuse the materials we sent, and threatened to start a war against us."
"If we don't say anything about it, I'm afraid Hu Fuxian will bring people to our clan in two days, and our entire clan will face annihilation." Wang Tuohai spoke first.
"That's right." After Wang Tuohai finished speaking, Wang Panshi, the elder of the two clans, answered, "All this is because of you, Hu Fuxian's personality we have dealt with for decades, and we all know that as long as we give him a satisfactory answer, we can resolve the contradiction and reconcile from the end." ”
The old king of the three clans occupies the vagina: "So in view of the fact that in three days it will be a five-year intra-clan competition, we decided to open the door and invite Hu Fuxian to come to the court, so that he can get some benefits, for you, we decided to temporarily detain you, and when the competition is over, maybe Hu Fuxian will not care about it if he is happy." ”
Wang Fence thought for a moment and said, "That means that I will be temporarily locked up by you first, and then decide what to do with me when Hu Fuxian comes?" ”
Everyone looked embarrassed, but Wang Tuohai opened his mouth first and said: "This matter is also a strategy to take into account the overall situation, you can rest assured that we will do our best to protect you." ”
"In other words, if he, Hu Fuxian, finally decides to want me to die, you can only do it?" Wang Fence reconfirmed.
