Chapter 111: The Melon Eater Front Line 4
Fan Roruru Roran didn't understand why Versace was so excited for a moment, but his action was obviously impulsive and he felt a little worried.
Mei Cheng'an asked Qingniao to go with her so that she felt a little more at ease. She had never seen Qingniao's skills, but she heard from her good sister Mei Yuxi that the four maids of the Mei family's brother were all capable of fighting.
Looked at Mei Chengan with gratitude.
"Sizhe is naughty and has caused Brother Mei a lot of trouble."
Mei Chengan smiled.
"You're welcome, Ruoruo. You are my guests, and it is my duty to protect you."
Fan Xian patted Mei Cheng'an on the shoulder.
Mei Chengan looked at him with a smile.
"You're welcome."
Fan Xian rolled his eyes.
"Who needs to thank you? Didn't you say it was your duty? Tell me, this Guo Baokun obviously knows you. He looked surprised just now. Are you familiar with him?"
Mei Chengan nodded.
"He's quite familiar with me. He's a little fan of mine. Although he's a few years older than me, he's always been quite respectful to me. Let me tell you another secret. Not only does he like my poems, he also likes to read your Dream of the Red Chamber."
When Fan Xian heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"No way, then he..."
Mei Chengan smiled and spoke frankly.
"He is the prince's disciple!"
Fan Xian suddenly understood.
"I see, this is a mission."
"correct!"
Fan Xian shook his head helplessly, with a hint of coldness in his words.
"It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again."
Fan Ruoruo listened to what the two said and asked.
"Is his trip related to the Crown Prince?"
Fan Xian's voice became much colder.
"At this time, in this place, and targeting the Red Mansion, and he kept looking upstairs, I don't believe he wasn't coming for me."
Teng Zijing suddenly interrupted at this time.
"If it's coming for you, then why are you so excited?"
Fan Xian was stunned.
"Yeah, that's right."
As he said this, he looked at Fan Ruoruo.
"Does Versace have a grudge against Guo Baokun?"
Fan Ruoruo didn't figure it out either.
“I’ve never heard of it.”
Mei Cheng'an was speechless. What a bunch of idiots! He couldn't help but remind them.
"Versace wants to sell Red Mansions, and Guo Baokun wants to ban Red Mansions."
Teng Zijing and Fan Ruoruo suddenly realized what was going on. Fan Xian was stunned for three seconds and then slapped his forehead.
"Fuck, I forgot about this. I was stupid."
Mei Chengan rolled his eyes at him.
"It's good to know."
downstairs.
As soon as Versace came out of the door of Yishiju, he made a great impression.
"Guo! What do you know?"
After saying that, he jogged towards the open space in the middle. The crowd automatically made way for him. Then Bluebird appeared and seized the opportunity to quickly enter the venue and stood a few steps away from Versace.
Versace picked up the Dream of the Red Chamber that Guo Baokun had thrown on the ground and spoke angrily to Guo Baokun.
"So many people like to read this book, which shows that it is a good book. You still want to ban the book? What official position do you hold? You are a compiler in the palace, which is insignificant. If you were given a government office, would you dare to enter it?"
Guo Baokun was so angry that he almost couldn't hold his face. However, he looked down on Versace and thought it was beneath his dignity to argue with him, so he sneered in his heart.
"I was wondering which idiot it was, it turns out to be you, you idiot."
Versace is not a coward.
"You are the pig! Your father, the Minister of Rites, is a pig!"
Guo Baokun completely lost his composure now, his face changed drastically. This guy was sharp-tongued and bold. It would have been fine if he just scolded him, but he even dared to scold his father. This was simply outrageous!
"you dare…"
He was interrupted before he finished speaking.
"Mr. Guo, please calm down."
Guo Baokun and Versace both looked towards the source of the sound.
The person who was talking was an unfamiliar scholar. Versace was confused, and Guo Baokun was even more confused. Who are you?
The scholar walked up to Guo Baokun with respect in his eyes, and his slightly hot gaze made Guo Baokun puzzled.
The scholar looked at Guo Baokun and suddenly bowed to him respectfully, which scared Guo Baokun.
"I've always heard that Master Guo is a great writer and has a profound family background. I didn't believe it at first, but today I saw Master Guo defending the world's scholars and explaining right and wrong. I really admire him!"
The scholar's rhythmic words made Guo Baokun feel much better. This was what human language was.
Versace was unhappy when he heard this.
"Who are you?"
The scholar was much more arrogant when facing Versace and spoke in a calm tone.
"I am He Zongwei."
upstairs.
Fan Ruoruo introduced it to a few people.
"He Zongwei is known as a talented person in Kyoto."
Fan Xian understood what was going on at a glance.
"This is to surrender to the master."
Mei Cheng'an had a deep impression of He Zongwei. He was a typical clown-like character. He might have some talent, but his mind was not right and his utilitarianism was too obvious, which made Mei Cheng'an somewhat disgusted with this person.
downstairs.
When Guo Baokun heard that this person was He Zongwei, his eyes lit up. He had heard of this name before, and he was quite famous. This person was obviously on his side, so he might as well leave the idiot next to him alone. After figuring it out, Guo Baokun smiled and greeted He Zongwei leisurely.
"Mr. He's talent and reputation, I have heard of it for a long time."
He Zongwei waved his hands quickly after hearing this.
"Hey, Mr. Guo, I am so ashamed of your compliment."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Seeing the two of them suddenly start chatting, Versace became extremely anxious. He wanted to interrupt them several times but failed. He would interrupt them while they were laughing.
"Nonsense! It's all nonsense."
He Zongwei found an opportunity to show off in front of Guo Baokun, pointed at Versace and started to criticize him.
"Disgraceful to politeness!"
With someone's help, Guo Baokun regained his composure and said sarcastically.
"Hey, this guy is the son of Si Nanbo. Si Nanbo is in the Ministry of Revenue and is in charge of money. It is natural that raising a child is shallow."
When Versace heard this, he immediately became angry.
"You dare to scold my father."
As he said this, he was about to punch Guo Baokun in the face, but unfortunately, his arm was grabbed by Guo Baokun's guards as soon as he made the move.
When Teng Zijing upstairs saw this situation, he wanted to jump down to protect Fan Sizhe, but Fan Xian stopped him.
"Don't rush yet."
After saying that, he looked at Mei Chengan.
"Is your maid okay?"
Mei Chengan smiled.
"Just look at it and you'll find out."
Fan Xian nodded and looked downstairs quietly.
The security guard was incredibly strong and pinched Versace's arm until it ached. He struggled for a long time but couldn't get free. He was shocked and angry.
"Let me go, Master."
Guo Baokun looked at Versace leisurely.
"After all, we are officials in the same dynasty. If you kowtow to me and admit your mistake, I will forgive you this time for your father's sake."
Mei Cheng'an frowned when he heard this, thinking that this was a bit too much.
Versace would never tolerate such humiliation.
"Master, I won't admit my mistakes to the pig!"
Guo Baokun lost his patience and gave orders to the security guard.
"Throw this idiot harder."
The guard was about to take action when a figure suddenly appeared beside him and grabbed the wrist with which he was grabbing Versace. In an instant, a piercing pain quickly spread from the wrist to the entire arm. The guard's face was full of pain. He was in so much pain that he didn't even have the strength to resist, let alone grab Versace, and he let go immediately.
At the same time, Qingniao also let go of the guard, who collapsed to the ground, sweating profusely, his wrist still shaking.
Whether Guo Baokun was frightened or not is not the point for now, but the guards he brought with him were frightened. That was their leader, the most powerful one, and he was completely powerless to resist in the hands of that woman.
They looked at each other, and no one dared to move.
As soon as Versace was rescued, he quickly stepped back a few steps and looked at Guo Baokun hatefully while rubbing his numb arm.
Guo Baokun was stunned by the sudden change in front of him. The most important thing was that he knew Qingniao. He had been to Mei Mansion many times and was not unfamiliar with Qingniao.
"Bluebird, why are you..."
Bluebird took a step back and clasped his fists and said.
"Please forgive me, Mr. Guo. He is my young master's guest and I cannot afford to offend him."
"this…"
Guo Baokun couldn't help but turn his head to look at Mei Chengan upstairs. Seeing him looking at him with a smile, he felt nervous and subconsciously looked away.
Well, Versace is protected by Master Mei, so it's not easy to attack him. But it doesn't matter. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked him to target Fan Xian, not Versace. If this guy hadn't been so aggressive, he wouldn't have asked anyone to attack him.
However, I still have to remind Master Mei that, although Versace is fine, Fan Xian must not protect him anymore. Otherwise, not only will I be embarrassed about my mission, but it will also bring trouble to Master Mei.
After thinking about it, Guo Baokun forced a smile and said loudly.
"Since you are Mr. Mei's guest, let's forget it this time."
After saying that, he moved a little closer and spoke quickly and softly to the bluebird.
"Tell Master Mei that today's matter is of great importance. Please don't interfere in the following matters. It will cause trouble for him."
After saying this, he took a step back silently and continued speaking loudly.
"I'll give Master Mei a favor, you can take him away."
Bluebird nodded slightly and looked at Versace.
Versace hadn't taken revenge yet, so he was unwilling to leave and stiffened his neck.
"I won't leave, Guo. If you dare to curse my father, I will never let you go."
Guo Baokun thought to himself, you are scolding my father. He was too lazy to argue with this guy anymore, so he looked directly at Qingniao and winked at her to take this thing away quickly.
Mei Chengan upstairs suddenly spoke at this time.
"Sizhe, that's enough. You also scolded Minister Guo, so we're even. Come up."
Versace thought about it and felt that what Boss An said was not wrong. He had indeed always had the upper hand when it came to scolding people, but the matter of the Red Mansion had not been clarified yet, and this was a big deal.
Versace turned around and looked at Mei Chengan.
"Boss An, the Red Mansion..."
Mei Chengan interrupted directly.
"No hurry, you come up first."
After saying that, he looked at Fan Xian standing aside.
"We've almost figured out the bottom of the matter, so hurry up and get on the field, buddy, and solve the problem quickly, or the food will get cold later."
Fan Xian nodded, took two steps back, and said something.
"As soon as possible."
Then he took a step forward, put one foot on the guardrail, leaped over the crowd of onlookers in the air and landed in the open space in the middle. After landing, he took two steps forward, and while removing the force of inertia, he walked right next to Versace. His movements were extremely simple and smooth, so natural and natural that they caused a burst of exclamations.
Fan Xian patted Versace on the shoulder.
"Leave the rest to me."
