Chapter 252 Sabre-rattling
Lee House.
In the garden outside the living room of the east courtyard, there was tension.
Zhang, who was in the room, heard the movement and hurried out.
Li Wuchang's expression was cold, staring at Zhang Su, Jiang Minglun and Zhao Xun would stand firmly on Li Wuchang's left and right, both holding their weapons across their chests, their faces were cold, and they could move at any time.
Zhang Su stood not far away and confronted them, his beard and hair were all open, and his anger had soared to the extreme, and at this time he also pulled his sword out of his waist.
He could see that Jiang Minglun and Zhao Xun's momentum was not simple, and he was afraid that he would not be able to take advantage of it with just a pair of fleshy palms.
And Li Lingwu and Li Ji stood in the middle of the two groups of people facing each other, their faces were extremely serious.
Everyone else stood in the hallway, staring intently into the garden, not saying a word.
The scene was solemn to the extreme.
What kind of identity is Zhang Su, an important elder of the Zhang family, he has a hot temper and is strict with juniors, and very few juniors dare to provoke his majesty, even if Li Lingwu and Zhang Xiu, the two patriarchs of the Li and Zhang families, have to be polite to him.
Now Li Wuchang dared to call him "Old Horseman" by a concubine, and he was not afraid of his move, even Li Wuchang's two entourages had eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall, and they actually pulled out their weapons directly, without any hesitation.
All of this made Zhang Su extremely annoyed, and he vowed to teach Li Wuchang a lesson.
Li Lingwu spoke again and said, "I said, stop for me! Put away your weapons." ”
The voice is very cold.
Li Wuchang nodded left and right, and Zhao Xun and Jiang Minglun immediately put away their weapons, but their faces were still extremely cold, without the slightest hint of fear.
Zhang Su didn't put away his sword, his whole body still exuded a majestic momentum, and said fiercely: "Ling Wu, old man Ji, I have to ask for an explanation today, don't stop you." ”
Li Lingwu said lightly: "Uncle Su put away the sword first, don't do anything with the juniors!"
Zhang Xiu and Zhang's faces changed drastically.
Looking at Li Lingwu like this, it seems that he wants to support Li Wuchang.
Zhang Su frowned, but after all, he put away the sword, he knew that the more indifferent Li Lingwu spoke, the more difficult it was to provoke, if he insisted on doing it, I was afraid that there would be no good fruit to eat.
This is in the Li family, not in the Zhang family, Li Lingwu's face must be given.
Li Ji took the opportunity to say: "Don't worry, old man Su, I will give you an explanation!"
Then he looked at Li Wufeng and ordered: "Wufeng, you go and confiscate the weapons of those two juniors who are disrespectful to the seniors, hmph! Don't look at what kind of place this is, is it your turn to get two outsiders to draw weapons here?"
Li Wufeng was a little embarrassed and said, "Uncle Ji, this ......"
It is also reasonable for him to be so embarrassed, Li Wuchang's attitude is so tough at the moment, and Jiang Minglun and Zhao Xun can compete with him at any time, how can he let him hand over the weapons of Jiang Zhao and Zhao alone.
Li Ji didn't quite understand the degree of Jiang and Zhao's heads, and looked at Li Wufeng again, and said curiously: "Why, don't you dare to take down the two outsiders?"
Li Lingwu was about to speak.
Li Wuchang said: "Father, please allow me to say a few words." ”
Li Lingwu nodded.
Li Wuchang looked at Li Wufeng and said lightly: "Big brother, you said yesterday that if someone makes trouble for me, you will stand on my side, whatever you want today, if you must choose to go against me, I will be played by you, it's nothing, big brother, you are willing to play the little brother, it is the honor of the little brother." ”
Li Wufeng waved his hand and said, "Impermanence, there is something to say, you calm down first, I'm not against you, it's just that you two followers, can you ......?"
The implication is to surrender Jiang Minglun and Zhao Xun's weapons.
Li Ji shouted: "Wu Feng, two casual people, why are you so polite?"
In Li Ji's view, Li Wufeng's performance is very unsatisfactory.
Li Wufeng immediately said: "Fourth brother, don't get me wrong, I just want to help them keep their weapons for the time being......"
Li Wuchang sneered and said, "Brother Loss is still a seven-grade master...... Have you not heard that for the masters who are accustomed to using swords, if you confiscate their weapons, it is equivalent to cutting off their hands and feet? Now that you want to confiscate the weapons of my two bodyguards, do you want that old horseman to slaughter us wantonly?"
"Junior arrogance!" Zhang Su heard the phrase "old horseman" again, trembling all over, if it wasn't for Li Lingwu standing in the middle, he would have rushed up immediately.
Li Wuchang looked at Li Wufeng and said with a smile: "It's not impossible for the eldest brother to hand over their weapons." Then ask the eldest brother to pull out your sword and stab me to death with a sword. ”
Li Wufeng was stunned, not knowing what to do.
And the faces of the people became solemn.
Li Wuchang was so strong.
Li Ji shouted: "Impermanence, what do you mean by this? Is this your attitude towards your eldest brother?
Li Wuchang said with a smile: "Uncle Ji, don't get me wrong, I am notoriously greedy for life and afraid of death, how could I let my eldest brother stab me to death at will, even if he has that determination, he doesn't have that ability...... I mean, as long as he has the strength to stab me to death, he can do whatever he wants. ”
Yesterday in Zhang's house, Li Wuchang felt Zhang Su's boundless murderous aura, not to mention today, if the attitude is not tough, it is really not a joke.
Li Ji's face was gloomy, and he said, "Impermanence, do you know what you're talking about?
The voice was very indifferent, he was very optimistic about Li Wufeng, the heir of the Li family, but Li Wuchang didn't take Li Wufeng in his eyes at all, which he couldn't bear.
Jiang Minglun interjected and said loudly: "Whoever wants to move our lord must step over the corpses of the two of us!"
Zhao Xun straightened his waist and said, "That's right!"
The voice is sonorous and powerful, and there is no doubt about it.
In this extremely serious atmosphere, Li Wufeng and Zhang Yanbang actually had envy for Li Wuchang, envious that Li Wuchang had two such loyal and bold retinues.
They also have an entourage, and loyalty is loyalty, but their skills and courage are much worse than Zhao Jiang and the others.
Li Hu and the others also felt the same way, in their opinion, Li Wuchang and Jiang Minglun and Zhao Xun were not ordinary master-servant relationships at all, but more like brothers who shared life and death.
Li Wuchang looked at Li Lingwu and said, "Father, I believe you understand my attitude. In addition, I would like to mention one more point, I did say such a sentence yesterday at Zhang's house, whether you want to reason with me or talk about fists, I will accompany you at any time. Today I still say this, that old puppet just came at me, why should I be afraid?"
Zhang Su said angrily: "Ling Wu, old man Ji, listen, listen! Is this what a junior should say?
Li Wuchang sneered and said, "For the old disrespectful person, why should I respect him?"
Zhang Su's face sank, and he said fiercely: "Little evil animal, what did you say?"
Li Wuchang, you are so bold!
Li Wuchang snorted coldly: "There are more than 2,000 people in my Zhuangzi, and I can find dozens of them who are older than you, and all of them are kind and kind, much better than you." You still blame me for calling you an old horseman, aren't you also a white-eyed wolf with a mouth open and a little evil animal? And the word white-eyed wolf is still hiding behind my back and saying, aren't you ashamed?"
Li Ji shouted: "Impermanence, pay attention to your attitude!"
Li Lingwu didn't speak, and looked at Zhang Su and Li Wuchang coldly, and let them make it clear, otherwise it would break out sooner or later.
Zhang Xiu's face was heavy.
The expressions of the three brothers Li Hu, Li Zhongyue, and Li Qing were the most relaxed, and Li Qing was still a little happy in his heart, what he didn't dare to do, Li Wuchang did it all.
And Li Wufeng and other juniors were so depressed that they didn't even dare to breathe.
Zhang Su roared: "How can a group of country savages compare with me?"
Li Wuchang sneered and said: "Okay, the country people can't be compared with you, so can the Tang Zhifeng boss be compared with you? One of the three major members of the cabinet, the official of the family is very protective of the juniors, and he went to my Zhuangzi last year, and he and the country people in your mouth are homely, telling jokes, and the atmosphere is very harmonious. Hmph, in my opinion, you don't deserve to lift shoes for Lord Tang!"
After a pause, he said coldly: "I still say the same thing, the preaching theory fist is as you please, and I will accompany you at any time." Don't use my father to press me, my father is notoriously reasonable, and the wild people in my village listen to his reputation. ”
Zhang Su laughed angrily and said, "Okay, okay, don't talk, I'll reason with this junior." ”
Li Wuchang spread his hands and motioned for him to continue.
When Li Ji and Li Lingwu saw Zhang Su say this, they stopped talking.
Zhang Su said in a deep voice: "Li Wuchang, you ask yourself, my niece Cuirong, is your eldest mother, how does she treat you normally? Even if it is for your own son, it is just for you to do something small and help the old lady to see her illness, but you are pushing back, you yourself say, are you a white-eyed wolf?"
Li Wuchang showed an extremely cold smile and said, "Why don't you ask my eldest mother this question in person?"
Zhang Su was stunned and looked at Zhang.
What's not to do?
You must know that Zhang's virtuousness is well-known in the entire Chang'an City, and she is quite good to her concubine Li Wuchang, and everyone has heard of it a little.
Zhang walked up, looked at Li Wuchang, and said, "Impermanence, you are indeed a little out of proportion this time, or ......."
She just wanted to say something to suppress Li Wuchang, but was interrupted by Li Wuchang.
Li Wuchang said coldly: "Auntie, you came just in time, don't talk about those useless ones." Do you dare to swear by the ancestors of your Zhang family, or by the life of your eldest brother, saying that you have treated me as your own son all these years?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed greatly.
Li Lingwu's face sank and looked at Zhang.
Li Ji also frowned.
Li Wufeng's heart trembled, his expression was stunned, and he looked at his mother, unsure of the situation.
Listening to Li Wuchang's words, Zhang seems to have done something crazy!
Zhang was caught off guard by the question, and asked her to swear by Li Wufeng's life, she would definitely not dare, so she was speechless for a while.
Zhang Xiu hurriedly came out and said, "Impermanence, although your eldest mother is not as good as your eldest brother to you, she is still okay...... Don't talk so much now, I think everything is a misunderstanding, today you are curing, not quarrelling. ”
He had to play a round game, and his mother still needed Li Wuchang's treatment.
Li Wuchang shrugged, looked at Zhang Su, and said, "Huh...... Biological son!"
Zhang Su's face was cloudy, and he didn't speak after all.
Li Lingwu's face was solemn, and he was still staring at Zhang, which meant that he wanted Zhang to give an explanation, he didn't believe that Li Wuchang would be so targetless.
Zhang sighed secretly and said, "Master, it's the concubine's body that is wrong." At that time, the concubine did think about the impermanence of the restaurant and shop, the concubine body is also for our Li family, the business of such a good restaurant and shop, it is better to hang under the name of the Li Mansion than under the name of impermanence, and some people in the province are looking for trouble. ”
After a pause, he said: "The concubine also knows that impermanence is because he resents the concubine because of his nurse's affairs, at that time, his nurse was seriously injured and dying, and before the person died, the doctor left, which is indeed unkind." The concubine did not send anyone to inform impermanence, and it was indeed the concubine's fault, but at that time, the concubine happened to have to deal with family affairs, so she was negligent for a while. ”
Zhang's general statement, Li Wuchang laughed secretly, and a good move was to retreat.
Okay, let's play slowly, Li Wuchang thought in his heart.
After listening to Zhang's story, Li Lingwu still had a hint of suspicion on his face, but he nodded after all and hummed softly.
