The crowd's curses became more and more intense, and the words were so ugly that words cannot describe it. The sharp sounds were interspersed back and forth, and some people's ears were stinging.
The people of the five families were like rats crossing the street, they simply didn't have the courage to raise their heads.
It is not a joke that everyone calls for beating.
The head of the Ning family turned his head and looked at the group of descendants coldly, feeling so angry that his bones ached.
"I remember that man treated his father with a pill worth a hundred taels, and the last pill was tripled. Why did you ask for 3,000 taels?"
The owner of the house really has a headache.
Triple it is only three hundred taels. On the basis of doubling, you actually doubled it ten times.
The human heart is made of flesh, how can it be so dark?
What a shame.
Next to the head of the family stood his third brother.
It was obvious that the head of the family was questioning the third brother.
The third brother turned around and looked at his nephew: "I asked you to raise it appropriately to make some money for drinks. How could you raise it so much? You beast!"
Fully thirty times.
With such a huge price difference, what kind of courage does it take to do this?
"I...I, I, I...I didn't want the price to rise so much, I..."
The nephew has a reason in his heart, but he doesn't dare to talk about it.
He met a concubine from a merchant family. He was the master behind the concubine and wanted to kill the young man's father.
He secretly controlled these three thousand taels by himself.
What's more, my nephew still owed a lot of gambling debts at the casino at that time.
"Beast, you are such a beast!"
The third brother's back molar is almost broken.
This beast made thirty times the price difference, but he didn't even pay himself any money.
"That's all, that's all... Now that the matter is over, what's the use of talking about it? Think about where to sleep today."
Seeing that the family members were about to start inexplicable internal strife over issues of profit distribution and lying to hide money, the head of the Ning family had no choice but to scold him.
No wonder, some people used to point their noses and call themselves nouveau riche.
yes.
The habits of the nouveau riche are evident from top to bottom, and they will break down as soon as they encounter some things.
Everyone in the family is lying and trying to find ways to put money in their pockets.
No one really thinks about the family.
How can such a family last forever?
Perhaps it is because money comes so easily that people have a misconception.
Many conflicts were quietly covered up by the steady flow of money and the majesty of the Taidan Academy.
The prosperity of the Ning family has nothing to do with the Ning family, it is mainly due to luck.
…
Chen Mansion!
Xiang Xiqiang was lying on the rocking chair in the yard, looking sad.
Sad.
My sweetheart has ignored me for a long time.
This time I was reckless and made a big mistake.
Alas, I blame myself for being blind and not asking about Zhang Zhaohong’s character and character.
He did bad things with good intentions and caused great harm to Brother Qin.
How can I have the dignity to see Brother Qin in the future?
The Crown Prince's Mansion has been busy lately, and my sweetheart is serving the Crown Princess, so I don't have much time to listen to my own good words.
Xiang Zhiqiang didn't think about food and tea. He locked himself in the house for several days. He didn't even bother to inquire about the strange things in Kyoto.
In fact, Xiang Zhiqiang's character itself has some social fears.
The reason why he didn't choose a girl from a rich and famous family was because he didn't want to participate in various personal connections.
Cui Huayong is the Crown Princess's personal attendant, and he doesn't have so many troubles behind him.
Of course, Cui Huayong's appearance is exactly the same as the fairy in his dream, which is also a reason that has to be ignored.
Therefore, Xiang Zhiqiang does not have the habit of strolling on the street.
What's more, he was worried about meeting the fourth son of the Cui family.
After all, he is his future brother-in-law, so he cannot be beaten. What's more, the brother-in-law has a fierce look on his face and seems to be brave and fierce. If he actually fights, he may not be able to defeat him.
Winter winter winter!
Winter winter winter!
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
"Master, I'll go take a look."
The Chen Mansion is the residence of Eunuch Chen. Eunuch Chen is used to living in the palace. There are only a few old eunuchs taking care of it on weekdays. It was only after Xiang Zhiqiang returned to Beijing that he gained some popularity.
Although these old eunuchs have been eliminated from the palace, they have served the royal family all their lives. Their eyes are so sharp that ordinary housekeepers are not even qualified to carry shoes.
"good!"
Xiang Zhiqiang stood up, put on his shoes, and followed the old eunuch.
If you are a distinguished guest looking for your godfather, don't lose your etiquette. Your face is worthless, but your godfather has a high status in front of the emperor.
"Eh...is that you?"
The old eunuch opened the door.
Xiang Zhiqiang was stunned and even froze in place.
He couldn't think of a person even if he thought about it.
Zhang Zhaohong.
right.
She was the scorpion-hearted woman who not only failed her good intentions, but also specifically humiliated Brother Qin.
you……
You you you...
Why do you still have the nerve to come to Chen Mansion?
It's not enough for you to humiliate my brother Qin, and you want to come here to humiliate me again?
Xiang Zhiqiang's head was even a little confused.
wrong!
There's still something wrong.
Xiang Xiqiang observed some details.
Although Zhang Zhaohong's clothes are of exquisite texture, and the fabric is even made from palace silk, they are still very untidy, with several places covered with dust and vague footprints.
Her hair is even more messy.
To sum it up, it's... embarrassing.
Extremely embarrassed.
What happened?
"Master Xiang, help me... Master Xiang, help me!"
Finally seeing Xiang Xiqiang, Zhang Zhaohong rushed towards him and grabbed his clothes tightly.
"No... if you have something to say, please speak slowly... This man and woman are not close to each other... If you have something to say, please speak slowly..."
Xiang Zhiqiang hurriedly separated Zhang Zhaohong from himself.
"Master Xiang, hurry up and save my brother... You are the only one who can save my brother now. You hurry up and save him..."
Zhang Zhaohong's eyes were red.
After leaving the restaurant, she immediately broke through the crowd of onlookers and ran to Chen's mansion like crazy.
Fortunately, I had been here with my eldest brother before. My eldest brother was particularly in awe of Eunuch Chen, so Zhang Zhaohong deliberately remembered this place.
She was really anxious.
If your eldest brother has a problem, what should you do?
What should the Zhang family do?
"What? What are you talking about? Your brother? Does Zhang Hu Dian still need help?"
Xiang Zhiqiang is even more confused.
Your brother is the chief disciple of the president of Taidan Academy. Does he still need help from others?
In this imperial capital, who can bully your brother?
"Young Master, you have been staying behind closed doors these past few days. There is some news outside, but I have never dared to disturb you... Something has indeed happened in the Zhang family, or Taidan Courtyard."
The old lady monitored her words and expressions, and analyzed various problems through a few sentences.
In fact, it is not surprising that the old eunuch did not pass on the news in time. After all, he was a eunuch who had served in the palace and was well-informed. He had experienced news more shocking than this countless times. It was just a change of the dean of the Taidan Academy, so what?
event?
Seeing that the young master was curious, the old eunuch began to describe it, all focusing on the key points, with almost no words of nonsense.
…
Liang Yuansu and his party were walking to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.
On the road, the soldiers carried loads of gold leaves, all smiling happily.
This is a rare bargain.
The criminals were terrified, and everyone was worried about their future fate.
Only Zhang Hudian looked calm and confident that he had a savior to save him.
Ning Suliang stood aside with a dark face.
In fact, among the several direct descendants of Taidan Academy, there are also some who are close and distant, and Ning Suliang is the one who is disliked by Zhang Hudian and ostracized everywhere.
If it weren't for the fact that Ning Suliang had something that Yan Jingyuan admired, he would have been bullied to death by Zhang Hudian.
Ning Suliang also thought of a way. He went to Zhang's house again and again to give gifts and express friendship, racking his brains to do what he wanted, but Zhang Hudian just hated himself.
In the end, Ning Suliang was also appointed.
If you can't afford to offend him, I'll stay away.
He had the least resources in the Taidan Academy and had to be cautious. He had long hated Zhang Hudian in his heart.
"Elder brother, what are you confident about? Are you still waiting for Eunuch Chen in the palace to rescue you?"
Ning Suliang suddenly asked.
He heard Zhang Hudian asking Zhang Zhaohong to find Xiang Xiqiang.
Behind Xiang Zhiqiang there is Eunuch Chen, this is something everyone knows.
"snort!"
Zhang Hudian sneered.
Even though he had become a prisoner, he still looked down on Ning Suliang.
This man had said bad things about himself in front of his master before.
"Elder brother, don't think about it..."
"Xiang Xiqiang introduced Flying General Bei Ying to your sister. When your sister failed to trick him, she got angry and hired someone to act in a show, publicly slandering General Bei Ying and trying to taint him..."
"Many people in the imperial capital know it."
"By the way, because of the Northern Eagle Flying General, the Crown Princess's guard who was pursuing the Supreme Commander has also become a traitor. Now he wants to kill you brothers and sisters, so he probably won't come to save you."
Ning Suliang was so angry that he told Zhang Hudian the truth in detail.
"What did you say!"
Zhang Hudian's eyes suddenly turned red.
He suspected that his ears had heard wrongly.
"By the way, the person who cooperates with your sister in acting is none other than Third Senior Brother... What do you think, Third Senior Brother?"
Ning Suliang looked at the lost Zhong Tianwei again.
"well……"
Zhong Tianwei nodded: "Senior Brother, if your reinforcement is Xiang Zhiqiang, don't count on it, because Flying General Beiying wants to kill us."
Hearing this, Zhang Hudian stopped subconsciously and stared at Zhong Tianwei in surprise.
He couldn't understand why Zhong Tianwei and his sister wanted to humiliate Qin Jinyang for no reason.
Back then in the restaurant, he had already spoken clearly to Qin Jinyang, and the other party was very understanding and did not disturb his sister afterwards.
But you are better off.
When others don't mess with you, you still deliberately slander others?
Eaten too much?
Crazy?
Zhang Hudian's eyes were red and he really wanted to go over and bite Zhong Tianwei to death.
At this point, he didn't even think about whether Zhang Zhaohong's problem was at fault. He firmly believed that it must be Zhong Tianwei who deceived the public with his evil words and tricked his sister into doing bad things.
"What are you dawdling about? Shut up, don't talk...be careful to tear your shitty mouths apart!"
Zhang Hudian slowed down the progress of the criminal team.
The soldiers did not have Hu, and the sword was not unsheathed, but the scabbard slapped Zhang Hudian on the calf.
puff!
Suddenly, Zhang Hidian spurted out a mouthful of blood.
He was almost pissed to death.
…
"What, Yan Jingyuan is no longer the dean of Taidan Academy?"
"Zhang Hudian offended the new dean and became a prisoner?"
Xiang Zhiqiang was shocked when he heard the whole story.
The Zhang family, which was doing well and showing off its power a few days ago, suddenly fell into despair.
Then, he looked at Zhang Zhaohong blankly: "This... this is a good opportunity for your brother to confess his crime. Why are you coming to me?"
"Mr. Xiang, my brother asked me to come to you and tell him that you could help him... If anything happens to my brother, the entire Zhang family will be ruined."
Zhang Zhaohong cried as the pear blossoms brought rain.
"Can't help!"
"I'm afraid that after helping your brother, you go everywhere to publicize that I want to molest you. I can't bear the crime!"
"Send off guests!"
Xiang Xiqiang showed off his guests without any expression on his face.
Help you?
Are you kidding me? Why are you looking for me?
I have saved your brother once before, and your brother kept promising that he owed me a favor.
I went to see him, but he just tried to prevaricate me, but he was actually ungrateful and humiliated my best friend?
You two siblings are so thick-skinned.
Speaking of which, how should I explain this to Brother Qin?
The Zhang brothers and sisters are in bad luck. Can Brother Qin feel relieved?
"Master Xiang, Master Xiang..."
"Master Xiang, please save my brother. I'm sorry for you. If you want revenge, just kill me..."
"Master Xiang... Master Xiang!"
Xiang Zhiqiang turned around and walked towards the inner courtyard.
Zhang Zhaohong wanted to chase him, but unfortunately he was blocked by several eunuchs.
She cried and shouted, but there was no response.
Zhang Zhaohong recalled the scene of humiliating Qin Jinyang, and his intestines almost turned green with regret.
If I had known today, if I had directly married Qin Jinyang, many things would have been solved.
Why am I so blind?
Why are you so stupid?
…
After being kicked out of the Chen Mansion, Zhang Zhaohong walked down the street in despair.
Deep in her character is a stubbornness that refuses to admit defeat.
"Hmph, Xiang Zhiqiang, you are such a treacherous villain. You have despised my elder brother for trusting you so much. If you don't help me, I will naturally have someone to help me."
"There are so many people in this imperial capital who admire this girl, and you are not the only one with a crooked neck."
After wiping away his tears, Zhang Zhaohong returned to the high ground.
She turned around and walked towards a luxurious mansion.
Hongfu!
Mr. Hong is Zhang Zhaohong's first backup, the first choice if he can't marry into the royal family, so he settles for the next best thing.
Mr. Hong has a handsome appearance, and his grandfather is the Hong Guogong of the current dynasty, but his father is of ordinary origin and has little status in the Hong family.
Fortunately, Mr. Hong is young and promising, and he is very much appreciated by Mr. Hong.
When the two met unexpectedly, Mr. Hong fell in love with him.
Zhang Zhaohong’s most profound memory was that Mr. Hong wanted to escort a batch of food for the victims to provide disaster relief, but he wanted to test Mr. Hong’s feelings for him and went to the lake to play at the critical moment before departure.
As a result, Mr. Hong left the team and came to accompany him without saying a word.
In the end, the transportation of relief food was delayed, and Mr. Hong was almost beaten to death by Mr. Hong Guogong.
But Mr. Hong has no regrets at all.
At that moment, Zhang Zhaohong was really moved.
…
Hong Mansion.
Zhang Zhaohong was kicked out without even entering the door.
right.
It was kicked out.
She was stunned.
You know, I have come to the Hong Mansion to deliver pills before. At that time, everyone in the Hong Mansion was extremely enthusiastic towards me.
why is that?
I am Miss Zhang, Mr. Hong’s mother, and I also claim that I want to be her daughter-in-law.
I am your young mistress, are you blind?
…
Mr. Gao is a relatively handsome young man.
Zhang Zhaohong’s second stop was Gaofu.
At first, Mr. Gao liked what he liked and wanted to seek life and death, and he even wanted to commit suicide for himself.
Zhang Zhaohong had kind thoughts and made a promise to Mr. Gao, so he did not seek death.
That promise was that before she got married at a certain age, she would definitely marry Mr. Gao.
Mr. Gao was so moved that he burst into tears. He immediately expressed that he was willing to wait for him for the rest of his life, even if he was gray-haired.
That’s all.
Although Mr. Gao is not the best candidate, I also look down on Mr. Gao's family background.
But now that the matter has come to an end, let’s find Mr. Gao first, and then let Mr. Gao think of a solution.
If you rely on others, you can always find a way to save your elder brother.
…
Gaofu!
roll!
…
Zhang Zhaohong wondered if he had gone to the wrong place.
The last time I helped save Mr. Gao, everyone in the Gao family was as grateful to me as the savior.
When buying elixirs on weekdays, the servants of the Gao family would go to the drug store to give some gifts, for fear that they would forget Mr. Gao.
Did something happen to the Gao family?
…
Turning a corner, Zhang Zhaohong saw another small mansion.
Mr. Jiao.
This is the young man he despises the most.
At first glance, he looks ordinary and not too tall. As for his family background, it seems that he has an uncle who is a general in the Ministry of War. Although he is a general, he is on the most dangerous battlefield and may die at any time.
Zhang Zhaohong didn't even think of teasing him.
He really doesn't want to marry Mr. Jiao.
But why not meet up?
As a friend, you can also ask Mr. Jiao to help.
My uncle is a general after all, and he may have some connections.
This time, Zhang Zhaohong finally saw him in person.
The reason is that Jiao Mansion does not have that many murderers to guard it.
"Hey, Miss Zhang, long time no see!"
Mr. Jiao sighed, and before Zhang Zhaohong could speak, he continued: "You went to Hong Mansion and got into trouble, I know."
"Actually, you don't need to look for anyone anymore. The Taidan Court situation is in full swing. Your eldest brother offended the Fang family. No one will come out to cause trouble."
"Furthermore, these people used to seek life and death for you, and they were not interested in you, but the resources of the Taidan Academy behind you."
"Your brother is no longer the chief disciple, what else do you think they can do if they want you?"
"Silly girl, what they like is Taidanyuan's background, not you."
Mr. Jiao speaks with sincerity and sincerity.
"and you……"
Zhang Zhaohong was so angry that he almost flew into the air.
She stared at Mr. Jiao in front of her, trying hard to recall how humble Mr. Jiao had been in front of her.
"Me too."
"My uncle is fighting on the border. His soldiers are in danger. The elixirs of Taidanyuan are getting more and more expensive. The salary of the Ministry of War is not enough. If you have the relationship with your brother..."
Mr. Jiao was halfway through speaking and stopped talking.
…
Zhang Zhaohong was like a zombie who had lost his soul, walking aimlessly on the street with empty eyes.
In the past, when I looked slightly uncomfortable, someone would care about me.
Now, people all over the street only looked at them with strange looks like crazy people. Several people even had bad intentions and hatred in their eyes, as if they were waiting for an opportunity.
Fortunately, I was forced to practice by my brother, and I am at least a second-grade warrior with some ability to protect myself.
Zhang Zhaohong walked to the bun shop.
Suddenly very hungry.
After stopping for a long time, she reached for the bun.
"Sir, pay first and then eat the buns!"
The shopkeeper smiled.
Zhang Zhaohong touched his pocket and found that he actually didn't have a tael of silver on him. It was not that the maids were always waiting on him, but that there was Zhong Tianwei beside him. Even if Zhong Tianwei was in Taidan Court, there were servants sent by Zhong Tianwei to serve him.
Seeing that Zhang Zhaohong was in distress, the shopkeeper pointed at the top of her head:
"Girl, the hairpin on your head is worth some money. Why don't you pawn it? To solve your urgent need! My relative from far away is the owner of a pawn shop. Can I introduce it to you?"
Hey hey hey!
The fat sheep has arrived.
This is the time when the eldest daughter of a family who has just fallen into poverty has no concept of money and is most easily deceived.
…
PS: I don’t know which platform the comics will be published on. I will inform you as soon as there is news.
I still have a bit of a fever, over 38 degrees, so I need to rest first.
