Chapter 374 Hurry up and Apologize to Me
"Dad, I was beaten! I was beaten!"
The ninth young master of the Li family rushed into the gate of Wuhou Mansion in a mess, stumbling.
He covered his buttocks tightly with both hands, and every step he took was very funny, as if a heavy stone grew on his buttocks.
Tears and snot were running down his face.
This weird and funny appearance attracted the attention of the servants and maids.
In the main hall of Wuhou Mansion, a middle-aged man with a dignified face was sitting in the main seat.
He was wearing brocade and chatting and laughing with a Confucian scholar in a green shirt.
This person was none other than the current Wuhou Li Zhentian, the current head of the Li family.
He heard the shouting of the ninth young master Li outside, and his eyebrows revealed a momentum of majesty without anger, and his expression was unhappy.
When he saw Master Li Jiu rushing in without courtesy and interrupting the communication between him and the visitor, his face instantly darkened and he shouted: "How shameless!!"
Master Li Jiu had never seen his father so angry before, and he trembled.
The guest saw him in a mess with snot and tears, and stood up tactfully, bowed and said: "There is something going on in the Wuhou family, I am inconvenient to disturb you, and I will leave first."
"I am really sorry, we will go to the palace tomorrow to discuss this matter and make a decision."
Li Zhentian politely sent the visitor away and turned back to the hall.
He stared at Master Li Jiu with his eyes, scanned him up and down, and asked angrily: "Tell me, what's going on?"
Master Li Jiu was afraid when he saw his father angry, but the burning pain on his butt made him think of Shen Qing's smug face, and he couldn't care too much.
He knelt on the ground with a plop, and said with tears in his voice: "Dad, you have to make the decision for me!"
Young Master Li Jiu sobbed and told all the grievances he had just encountered in "Zuixianlou" in a broken voice.
"Dad, today I took Grandpa Tong to Zuixianlou to check the accounts, and met two soldiers from the Bingmasi. At first, everything was peaceful. Unexpectedly, the two blind officers of the Bingmasi were rude and yelled at us. I didn't want to argue with him, but I didn't expect that they would get more and more aggressive after I tolerated them again and again... Grandpa Tong stood up for me and was beheaded by those two people. I couldn't avoid it and ended up like this..."
"Dad, the Bingmasi officer really didn't take our Li family seriously, Dad!"
At this point, Li Yi, the ninth young master of the Li family, couldn't help crying again, as if he wanted to vent all his grievances.
However, after listening to this, Li Zhentian did not get angry as Li Yi expected, but sneered.
He looked down at me from a high position and said, "Xiaojiu, do you know why your grandfather chose me to inherit the title of Wuhou among all the uncles?"
"What?"
"Because I never believe others' words, especially your one-sided words."
Li Yi, the ninth young master of the Li family, froze, and his cry was choked in his throat.
He stared at his father in disbelief.
Li Zhentian continued, "Although the people in the military department are often unkind and domineering, they are definitely not brainless. What you said today, do you think that your father is blind and can't tell the truth from the false?"
"If you ask me, you have always been the only one who bullies others. How dare others take the initiative to provoke you? Tell me, what's going on?"
Li Zhentian's spiritual energy trembled all over his body, and a sharp momentum rose from him, revealing the power of the Yuanshen realm.
The face of Li Yi, the ninth young master of the Li family, turned from red to white, and then from white to blue.
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, lowered his head and said truthfully: "I heard that the chief who was eating in Zuixianlou had participated in this meeting to quell the rebellion, so I sent Grandpa Tong to ask him for some information. Maybe Grandpa Tong's words were a bit too much, which made the other party dissatisfied, and finally... took action."
After listening to the general description, Li Zhentian was able to restore the original appearance of the matter in his mind.
It must be that he relied on the power of his family, was fearless, and looked down on others.
In the end, there was a conflict, and the other party was forced to take action.
This is also consistent with his son's style.
Li Zhentian sighed, with a bit of disappointment and helplessness in his tone.
Thinking of Li Yi's mention of the Jing Luan Hui, Li Zhentian said, "Just now you said that the chief officer you met participated in this Jing Luan Hui?"
"Yes, Dad. I remember his name should be Shen Qing." Li Yi, the ninth young master of the Li family, nodded and said, "This time, many brothers and sisters in the clan have suffered misfortune in this Jing Luan Hui. I see that you are often depressed because of this, so I want to find out more about the Jing Luan Hui news to enlighten you."
Li Zhentian glanced at Li Yi, feeling mixed emotions, not knowing what to say.
He fell into deep thought, and after a moment of silence, he slowly said: "I remember that only one person survived this time. If what you said is correct, then the person you met today should be him."
"This person is not of high birth. He was a hunter at first, and he did not have any ancestors to bless him. The reason why he was able to enter the powerful government office of Jingdu Bingmasi, in addition to his own strength, was more because of His Majesty's appointment and intention."
"In other words, His Majesty may have other intentions this time, and you should not provoke him."
"Ah... Dad, are we going to let it go from now on?" Li Yi, the ninth young master of the Li family, said unwillingly.
"Forget it?"
"Snap", Li Zhentian slapped Li Yi hard on the face.
Strong winds blew.
Li Yi felt an unstoppable force lift his entire body into the air, and his body fell to the ground like a kite with its string cut off.
Amidst the flying dust, he coughed up a mouthful of liquid mixed with blood foam, which also contained a tooth that had been lost due to the impact.
"Cough...cough..."
Li Yi put his hands on the ground and struggled to get up from the ground.
Half of his cheeks swelled rapidly, and his fingerprints were clearly visible. There was still blood on the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were full of confusion.
"How could it be that we just let it go? Go and apologize to me quickly!"
Li Yi gently touched the burning cheek with trembling fingers, looking at Li Zhentian, with a tremor of disbelief in his voice: "Dad? Why?"
"Why? Do you think that because you are the young master of the Li family, you can do whatever you want? Do you think that because you are talented in martial arts, I will always pamper you? Do you think that everyone outside is as stupid as you? Um?"
Li Zhentian looked at Li Yi with a look of resentment, and said: "My Li family has been walking on thin ice until today."
"When you go out, make more friends and fewer enemies, so that you can last for a long time. That person who can survive the Jingchao meeting alone is by no means an ordinary person. If His Majesty has plans for him, do you know what you will do for your family? How much trouble will it cause?”
Li Yi, the ninth young master of the Li family, was stunned when he heard this. He had never thought of this level.
He originally thought that because he was the leader of the younger generation in the family and had extraordinary talents, even if he made mistakes occasionally, his father would be accommodating. However, he did not expect that his father would be so angry this time and would even use his cultivation to teach him a lesson. he.
"But, dad, I..." Li Yi still wanted to argue, but swallowed the words as they reached his lips.
He understood that no matter what he said at this moment, it seemed pale and weak.
"Nothing but!" Li Zhentian interrupted him, his tone unquestionable, "You go now. If you don't want to go, I will take you with me."
Looking at Li Zhentian's eyes that could not be refuted, Li Yi could only lower his head and silently accepted the order.
He knew his father's words made sense, but he was too complacent for the moment.
"Walk!"
Li Zhentian immediately stepped out and walked in front of Li Yi, and ordered his servants to prepare a generous gift and bring it with them.
…
At the same time, Shen Qing and Wei Chengye also returned to the Military and Horse Division.
Compared to Shen Qing's calmness, Wei Chengye was worried and frightened. He regretted more and more that he took Shen Qing to the Li family's restaurant, provoked people he shouldn't have provoked, and caused a disaster.
"Mr. Shen, what happened today..." Wei Chengye said, "I'm afraid the Li family won't let it go."
Shen Qing patted Wei Chengye's shoulder gently, smiled and comforted: "The matter is over, let's find Mr. Lan first and let him make the decision."
In Shen Qing's opinion, this is a good opportunity to test what Lan Gongliang is thinking and whether he is good or bad to him.
The two of them walked all the way to the third hospital, but found that Lan Gongliang was not there.
Shen Qing scanned it with his spiritual consciousness, but found nothing.
After he hurriedly asked several government officials, he found out that Lan Gongliang had not returned home due to official duties.
"What should we do now?" Wei Chengye said with a gloomy expression, "If I join you this time, my end will probably not be good either."
He paced back and forth in the government office, feeling uneasy in his heart.
"Mr. Wei, calm down." Shen Qing interrupted Wei Chengye's anxiety and said calmly: "Even if the Li family is powerful, we can't kill him at will."
Wei Chengye shook his head and said: "Brother Shen, you are still too young. The Li family wants to do a lot of tricks to you. If he doesn't, why can't you touch your wife, children, and parents?"
"I have no father or mother, and I have never started a family." Shen Qing said truthfully.
"..." Wei Chengye was stunned for a moment and said, "Okay, even if you don't have these family members, can't I send you a dangerous mission and get rid of you with the help of others?"
"That's quite possible."
However, Shen Qing was not afraid.
With his current level of cultivation, as long as he is given a little time, it is more than enough to rely on the panel to save his life.
"Now that Mr. Lan is not in the office, what are you going to do next?"
Shen Qing smiled and said: "Your Majesty gave me the Qiwen Cuiying Order to allow me to go to the royal arsenal. It just so happens that I have nothing to do right now, so I plan to go to the palace."
After hearing this, Wei Chengye thought to himself: 'It would be a good idea to hide in the palace now.
No matter how powerful the Li family was, they would not dare to mess around in the palace.
But he went to the palace, what should he do?
Didn’t the Li family pour all their anger on themselves? ’
Wei Chengye felt even more uncomfortable when he thought of this.
At this moment, a burst of rapid and heavy footsteps came from far away. A yamen chief trotted up to Shen Qing and Wei Chengye and said, "Master Shen, Master Wei, Lord Wu and Li Jiajiu" The young master is here and wants to see two adults."
Wei Chengye's mind buzzed and went blank.
He didn't expect that the other party's "revenge" would come so quickly, and the head of the family would come in person.
Wei Chengye's eyes flashed with surprise and nervousness, and he lowered his voice and said to Shen Qing: "How about we go through the back door to avoid the limelight first?"
Shen Qing glanced at Wei Chengye and said, "Let's meet. We are in the Yamen in front of a large public. They won't do anything. Otherwise, the emperor will take himself too seriously."
Shen Qing held the saber on his waist and shouted, "Lead the way."
The long-servant took the order and walked in front, silently leading Shen Qing to the first courtyard.
Looking at Shen Qing's back that was getting farther and farther away, Wei Chengye slapped himself and regretted secretly: 'Damn it, I shouldn't have gotten involved in this muddy water from the beginning. '
He quickly chased after him.
A wing room in the first courtyard.
"My Lord, Lord Shen and his men are here." The long-servant stood at the door and knocked on the wooden door gently, saying respectfully.
"Come in." A low and powerful voice of a middle-aged man came from the room.
With the sound of the door hinge, the door of the wing room slowly opened.
Shen Qing, wearing a military uniform, held the saber, and stepped into the room with steady steps.
I saw a middle-aged man wearing brocade, sitting on the main seat, exuding a unique majesty of a superior.
This must be the Li family's Wu Hou.
Shen Qing glanced around and saw the ninth young master of the Li family beside him. His face was slightly startled, and a trace of surprise flashed across his face.
The other party's face was swollen and almost unrecognizable at this time, much worse than when he left the restaurant.
After he entered the house, Wei Chengye followed closely.
The moment he saw Li Zhentian, his muscles instantly tensed up, and the spiritual power in his body surged like a river bursting its banks, flowing around him uncontrollably.
This is terrible.
Shen Qing is afraid that he will be skinned alive if he doesn't die.
I will definitely be dragged down by him.
Soon, all kinds of messy thoughts appeared in Wei Chengye's mind, and he was in a mess.
"Are you Mr. Shen?" Li Zhentian set his eyes on Shen Qing and said calmly.
Shen Qing said calmly, "I'm here, what's the matter with you, Lord?"
"Nothing?" Li Zhentian stood up, grabbed a sandalwood box beside him, and said directly and frankly, "I heard about what happened between my son and you, so I came here to apologize. Xiaojiu!"
Li Yi, who was called, stepped forward, with a "pig head" on his head, holding the wooden box in both hands, and said in a muffled voice, "Boss Shen, I was too rude in the restaurant today. This is the old ginseng pill that my father prepared for you. Please... please accept it."
As soon as these words came out, Wei Chengye's shock exploded instantly.
His eyes were wide open, looking at the scene in front of him in disbelief, and his mouth was so open that an egg could be stuffed in.
What happened?
The Li family was willing to bow their heads and apologize?
Wei Chengye looked at Shen Qing and couldn't say a word for a long time.
Shen Qing said calmly, "Hey, you finally got it?!"
Li Yi was so angry that his teeth itched.
But thinking of his father's previous lesson, he swallowed his resentment again...
