Chapter 568 Xin'an Lane, Hu Zongxian
Han Yu is here.
"Wang Tingxiang is a fake Confucian. He pretends to be noble all day long. He would rather teach children than associate with us." Han Yu sneered, "It's almost the end of the year. If Jiang Qingzhi can't produce that thing, he will definitely be criticized by our Mingjiao. He wants to use this matter to distract us."
"The great scholar Wang Tingxiang of the capital has defected to the Mohist School. Once the news gets out, who will have the heart to celebrate the New Year?" Yang Qing walked around the room with his hands behind his back. "This is a slap in the face."
Han Yu said, "I have sent someone to investigate this matter. We will talk about it after everything is confirmed."
Yang Qing pointed at Yang Zhiyuan who was standing next to him and said, "This is my nephew. He passed the provincial examination and was preparing to travel. He was the one who discovered this outside the city and had a conflict with Wang Tingxiang. A scholar happened to come... There was a conflict and my nephew was slapped. The young man couldn't help but hit the other person with a brick, knocking him unconscious."
"Literati?" Han Yu said with a smile, "It's a small matter. I'll ask someone to take a look later."
In the academic circle of the capital, who dares not to give them face?
"It is said that his surname is Xu." Yang Qing looked up at Han Yu with some caution in his eyes, "Xu Wei, Jiang Qingzhi's think tank, also has the surname Xu."
"It can't be such a coincidence, right?" Han Yu laughed, and then praised Yang Zhiyuan again.
"Gentlemen." Chen Zhan came, "The people who were watching Xin'an Lane reported that Xu Wei was beaten and bloodied, and was dragged back to Xin'an Lane."
Yang Qing's eyes narrowed, "It's him!"
Han Yu was also startled, "It was him?"
Yang Zhiyuan said loudly: "Everyone has his own responsibility. I will go to Xin'an Lane later. I want to see what Jiang Qingzhi can do to me."
Yang Qing shook his head, "I can't go."
"Young people are always full of passion and feel that no one in the world can stop them. But that was Jiang Qingzhi." Han Yu said, "He used more than ten heads in Suzhou Prefecture to prove his reputation as a butcher. You, a juren..."
"The name of the Yang family cannot be humiliated." Yang Zhiyuan said, "Xu Wei was the first to attack, and I fought back. Even if this matter comes before the emperor, my nephew will not bow his head."
Han Yu naturally wouldn't argue with the young man. He looked at Yang Qing and said, "Mr. Yang, how about sending him back?"
Yang Zhiyuan frowned, "Before I left, I said that I would definitely travel around the north in half a year or more. If I go back now, I would rather confront Jiang Qingzhi face to face."
"You are very courageous." Han Yu laughed. "Otherwise... Mr. Yang has to take action. Although Xu Wei is Jiang Qingzhi's aide, many things... it takes two hands to clap. It's almost the end of the year. Isn't Jiang Qingzhi worried about that matter? Mr. Yang can just pretend to be nice..."
Yang Qing nodded, stood up and said, "There is no time to lose, I will go now."
He walked over and patted Yang Zhiyuan's shoulder, "Don't worry."
"Yes." This was Yang Zhiyuan's third visit to the capital, and he had long been looking forward to the prosperity of the capital. He then followed Yang Qing's entourage to settle down.
"Where in the capital is busy these days?" Yang Zhiyuan asked.
"There are so many lively places in the capital, just to name a few..."
Yang Qing immediately rushed to Xin'an Lane.
"Yang Qing is here."
Xia Yan went to see Jiang Qingzhi for something and told him the news.
The military doctor came out and said, "My Lord, Mr. Xu's external injuries are common. But there is something wrong here." He pointed to his head and said, "I have seen many patients like this in the army. Some fell on their heads, some were hit by heavy weapons... Most of them can wake up. However, only a very small number of patients...will have some troubles."
"Become a fool?" Xia Yan asked.
The doctor laughed dryly, "Very few."
"When will he wake up?" Jiang Qingzhi thought it was probably a concussion.
"It should be in one or two days." said the doctor.
Jiang Qingzhi walked in and saw that Xu Wei's eyes were closed. The cloth bandaged on his forehead was from the Bo's Mansion and had been boiled and disinfected.
He walked to the bedside and touched Xu Wei's forehead, but found no signs of fever.
He turned around and saw Hu Zongxian standing outside the door, his eyes red.
"My Lord, I volunteer for this matter!"
"it is good!"
……
When seeing Jiang Qing, Yang Qing paid special attention to his expression.
"Meet Long Wilbur."
Jiang Qingzhi was not polite and sat down directly. "What are you doing here?"
Seeing that he was rude, Yang Qing thought that Xu Wei's injuries were probably serious.
"The conflict between my nephew and Xu Wei..."
"That was not a conflict." Jiang Qingzhi said grimly, "Wang Tingxiang is a famous scholar, and your nephew was so rude. Xu Wei saw injustice and drew his sword to help, but you took advantage of your nephew who was angry and humiliated and beat him up."
"Chang Wei Bo!" Yang Qing wanted to sit down, but he stood up again after hearing this. "Xu Wei took the lead."
"Your nephew humiliated him first!" Jiang Qingzhi sneered, "Hand him over!"
Yang Qing took a deep breath. "It's less than a month until the end of the year. Chang Wei Bo, don't you want to think about your way out? Many times, you should leave a way out for others and not push them too far."
He was unwilling to compromise, but he knew Jiang Qingzhi's cruelty, so he had to bow his head temporarily and throw out his chips.
——The matter is settled here. If you cannot produce anything that benefits the country and the people by the end of the year, I will be your buffer.
Xu Wei was just an aide, and he didn't look like he could die... a brick couldn't kill someone.
In this case, this bargaining chip should satisfy Jiang Qingzhi.
Jiang Qingzhi took out a cigarette and pointed outside.
"roll!"
……
Yang Qing returned to Fengyuan Building, and Han Yu asked, "How is it?"
"Jiang Qingzhi is rude!" Yang Qing had never been humiliated like this before, and her face was still flushed.
"It's as expected." Han Yu said, "But I'm a little curious. Yang Gong was willing to help him, but this man refused. Is he really sure about that thing? Is he confident, or is he just showing off his strength but being weak inside..."
Yang Qing asked his followers, "Where is Erlang?"
The attendant said, "Erlang Jun said earlier that he was going out to visit a friend."
Yang Qing's expression changed, "How long has he been out?"
"Half an hour."
"Go and get him back, quickly!"
"Mr. Yang, please be patient." Han Yu said with a smile, "Jiang Qingzhi will not act so quickly."...
Hu Zongxian left the Bo Mansion with a few guards.
"Mr. Hu!"
The neighbors have a lot of good feelings towards this amiable Mr. Hu, and some even say that Hu Zongxian is the second amiable person in the Bo family.
As for the first one, it is naturally Sun Chonglou who shouts every morning.
Hu Zongxian still smiled gently.
Walking out of Xin'an Lane, a guard was waiting, "Our people have kept an eye on Fengyuan Building. Half an hour ago, Yang Zhiyuan really went out."
"Did you catch up?" Hu Zongxian asked.
"Follow."
As soon as he learned of Yang Zhiyuan's identity, Hu Zongxian immediately ordered the guards to keep an eye on Fengyuan Building.
"That Yang Zhiyuan brought two followers with him. It looked like he was going there for fun."
"Follow!"
Hu Zongxian took office.
Yang Zhiyuan first went to find his good friend Zhao Shi. After the two met, Zhao Shi wanted to welcome him back and suggested going to a restaurant.
"I heard that there is a famous prostitute named Ning Yu in Baiyun Tower in the capital?" Yang Zhiyuan asked.
"My dear, are you sick enough to provoke me?" Zhao Shi looked at him and said with a smile, "Since Ning Yu left home, only Jiang Qingzhi has been able to have sex with her. Others can hardly see her even if they spend a fortune. Why, have you brought all your belongings with you?"
The Yang family is naturally not short of money, and Zhao Shi’s joke is also a warning... Not everyone can see Ning Yu.
But when he heard the three words "Jiang Qingzhi", Yang Zhiyuan felt a surge of indignation.
He passed the imperial examination at the age of only 20 this year. In addition, the Yang family was a famous family and spared no effort to build momentum for him. He was called a child prodigy since he was a child. After he passed the imperial examination, he was even touted as the future prime minister.
But there is a name looming over the head of this future prime minister.
There is a great Mohist master in the capital, younger than you, but already famous all over the world. His literary talent is superior to that of the literati in poetry, and his martial arts are able to defeat the cavalry under Altan Khan.
Yang Zhiyuan was naturally indignant, in fact, he was just envious and jealous. This was also the reason why he intercepted Wang Tingxiang.
"Let's go to Baiyun Tower. I want to see why Ning Yu is so arrogant!"
……
"Mr. Hu, that guy went to Baiyun Tower."
The old friend was lying on the bed, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. Hu Zongxian was so angry that he almost burst out. He took a deep breath and said, "Okay!"
When Hu Zongxian arrived outside Baiyun Tower, Sun Bu Tong, who was accompanying him, said, "In the past, Uncle once surpassed his peers here and was the best."
Hu Zongxian took a look at the plaque and walked in first.
"Sir, do you have any girls you know?" Someone came forward to greet him.
"I'm looking for someone." Hu Zongxian said.
The guy blocked his way with a smile: "I don't know who you're looking for."
Hu Zongxian looked at him, "Do you want to stop it?"
The waiter said calmly, "This is Baiyunlou. Sir, there is anger in your eyes, so you are here to cause trouble. If you have a personal grudge, please wait outside. When the guest comes out, Baiyunlou will not care about what happens to you."
"What if I have to go in now?" Hu Zongxian looked at the guard, who stood on tiptoe and looked inside, looking for Yang Zhiyuan.
"Are you looking for trouble?" The guy took a step back and asked with a sneer.
Behind them, several guys came over with grim smiles and surrounded Hu Zongxian and others.
"Mr. Hu, that man is Yang Zhiyuan!" the guard said, pointing at the young man who was talking to the madam.
Hu Zongxian stared at Yang Zhiyuan and said, "Make way!"
"Tell me your name and let us see who you are!" The guy also got angry.
"Xin'an Lane." Sun Bu Tong took a step forward.
Hu Zongxian stared at Yang Zhiyuan.
"Long Wilbur?" The clerk was startled. Sun Bu Tong grinned and said, "If you say that again, I won't let you try!"
The guy lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry."
He can't afford to offend him, no, it's Baiyun Tower that can't afford to offend Jiang Qingzhi!
After the incident in Suzhou, the madam once said that people like Jiang Qingzhi looked like weak scholars, but they were actually decisive and ruthless. Don't offend such people unless you have something to do.
"What's the matter? Is Ning Yu a rich lady and cannot be seen?" Yang Zhiyuan was negotiating with the madam.
The madam smiled and said, "Isn't it because Ning Yu is not feeling well?"
"I want to go and meet her!" Yang Zhiyuan was a favored child in his hometown. He had everything he wanted and had long developed a character that would not tolerate being refused.
"Let's do it another day!" The madam's face also changed.
Yang Zhiyuan sneered, "I won't be able to see Ning Yu today..."
"What do you want?"
Someone behind me asked.
"Whose crotch wasn't tight enough to let you out?"
Yang Zhiyuan cursed as he turned around.
Behind him was a man who looked like a scholar and seemed quite friendly.
What is he holding in his hand?
Bricks?
"What do you want?" Yang Zhiyuan asked indifferently.
The scholar raised a brick and said, "I'll give you one back!"
After saying that, he slapped it hard!
Bah!
Yang Zhiyuan fell down.
"How dare you do that?!" Zhao Shi screamed, "Do you know who he is? Tell me your name!"
The scholar spoke up, "Xin'an Lane, Hu Zongxian!"
