Author: Gao Yue

Chapter 21 Retaliation is inevitable

Li Ye immediately went to find Zhang Xiaopang, and also found Xiao Huangmao. Wuji Lang followed his father to Guangyuntan outside the city before dawn.

Li Ye told two friends what Hu Jing wanted to do to him. Zhang Xiaopang immediately jumped up and said angrily: "Is he tired of living wildly on our territory?"

Xiao Huangmao thought for a while and said: "Brother, you can actually go to Manager Qiao and ask Manager Qiao to tell the prince that if your surname is Hu, you won't dare to mess around."

Li Ye sneered and said: "If he doesn't come, wouldn't it be an advantage for him?"

Seeing that Li Ye was confident, Zhang Xiaopang immediately became more courageous and quickly asked: "What do you think, Old Li?"

"I think that if he is buying a murderer to deal with me, the murderer must step in first. The gate will be closed when it gets dark. He can't come at night, so we have to pay attention during the day, either today or tomorrow."

…………

At dusk, as expected, a lame man came, about forty years old, limping, carrying an empty backpack, and after asking around, he found Li Ye's home.

The middle-aged lame man walked around Li Ye's house, then picked up a small wooden stick and threw it to the roof. He turned around and left. Little did he know that his every move had been watched by Li Ye.

.

Li Ye immediately went to find Qiao Bin, and of course he wanted Qiao Xingzhong's help, otherwise this good show would not be able to continue.

…………

In the evening, Qiao Xingzhong listened to his son's report and was shocked. Hu Jing, a bastard, actually wanted to attack Li Ye. It was really in line with his style of doing things. He would pinch whoever was the softest.

"Then what does Li Ye mean? Does he want me to tell the prince?"

"No! He said this is an opportunity, his opportunity, and also his father's opportunity!"

Qiao Bin told Qiao Xingzhong about Li Ye's plan. Qiao Xingzhong was stunned. Is this still a fourteen-year-old boy? Such sophisticated methods!

He thought about it and realized that this was his chance to completely kill Hu San, his enemy. He rubbed his hands and couldn't help but said excitedly: "Tell me again, slowly, I want to hear it in detail!

"

…………

In a tavern near the palace, a middle-aged lame man said to the steward Hu Jing: "I will attack before closing the door and then leave the shop quickly, but there will be people at home at that time, and someone might be killed."

Hu Jing sneered, "The people who live in Yonghefang are all cheap. If they die, they will die. Who will take them seriously?"

The lame man said slowly: "You can't say that. I have a criminal record with the government. Once caught by the government, my life may not be saved. Let me make it clear to you. If someone is killed, fifty strings will not be enough. You have to

If you pay me another hundred guan, I'll have to hide for a few months."

"One hundred strings is too many, sixty strings at most!"

The lame man shook his head, "One hundred guan, not a penny less, otherwise I will hire someone else!"

Hu Jing looked at him for a moment and finally agreed, "It's a deal, if someone is killed, I'll give you another hundred guans!"

Hu Jing took out thirty taels of silver and gave it to him, "This is the deposit. I'll give you the rest after the deal is done!"

…………

The next day, Li Ye once again gathered a few friends, and this time Wujilang was also there. His father's new boat had just been painted with tung oil and needed to be dried for two days. He had nothing to do for the time being, so he went home to rest.

"Generally, the time to set foot on the spot is the time when he strikes. He should strike when it is just dark, and then leave quickly, so he will definitely appear in the evening."

"Brother, what do you think he will do?" Xiao Huangmao asked worriedly.

"It's impossible to kill someone. It's easy to get caught. I guess he will set fire to it and throw the torch on the roof of my house!"

Li Ye clearly remembered the lame man throwing small branches on the roof of his house, which should be his plan.

Zhang Xiaopang asked: "When will we start arresting people?"

"Everyone, please don't alert the snake. You must wait for me. I'll knock him down first, and everyone will come to help. If he wants to set fire to it, he can do whatever he wants. Don't be anxious!"

Everyone nodded, but Li Ye followed suit.

Everyone went home. At this time, Wujilang took out three taels of silver and handed it to Li Ye, saying, "This is the three taels of silver I distributed last time. I didn't give it to my family. I kept it for myself. I burned down the house and had to build a new one."

Brother, please accept this little money!"

Li Ye took the money, put it back into his pocket, and said with a smile: "You look down on me! Will I have no money to repair the house?"

"No! No! No! This is just my opinion!"

"I accept your kindness, but you keep the money yourself. We are brothers, so keep it in your mind!"

Wujilang has been following Li Ye as his little brother since he was three years old. The two grew up together. Although he is taciturn, he has always followed Li Ye.

He sighed and said: "I will board the ship tomorrow. The first trip will be to Shaanzhou. It will take more than a month to go back and forth. Please tell Master Pei that I can no longer practice martial arts with him. I am really sorry!"

Li Ye patted him on the shoulder, "If you were bullied outside, come back and tell me and I will stand up for you!"

Wujilang was moved in his heart, he nodded silently, clasped his fists in salute, turned around and went home.

Li Ye also hurried home. The biggest problem in his entire plan was how to convince his mother to leave temporarily and take away the valuable things.

After much deliberation, there was no other way but to tell the truth. With Pei Sanniang's shrewdness, there was no way she could hide this matter.

In the room, Li Ye told Pei Sanniang exactly what danger he was about to encounter and how to deal with it. Pei Sanniang raised her eyebrows and said angrily: "You dare to harm my son, I have to hit him to death with a hammer."

"Mom! Can you calm down first?"

Li Ye said helplessly: "Didn't you listen to the response plan I just mentioned?"

Pei Sanniang shook her head, "A powerful man like King Si Ning only protects his shortcomings. He doesn't care about the lives of ordinary people like us!"

"Hu Jing is not good enough to let King Si Ning protect his shortcomings. On the contrary, King Si Ning still hates him. If the princess hadn't protected him, he would have been driven away long ago. This time Hu Jing ruined King Si Ning's reputation.

King Si Ning will never spare him!"

"You take this for granted, right?"

"Mom, this is what Manager Qiao told me."

Pei Sanniang said coldly: "I am being taken advantage of, and I don't even know it yet!"

"This is just taking advantage of each other!"

At this time, Aunt Mu said from the side: "Sanniang, just listen to Aye this time! If the wild dog is not killed, it will continue to bite people."

Pei Sanniang thought about it and it made sense. If Hu San, a wild dog, was not killed, he would definitely continue to harm his son, making it impossible to prevent him.

"Okay! According to Aye's method, I will give up these shabby houses!"

When Li Ye saw that his mother had agreed, he was overjoyed and said quickly: "I promise to build three new tile-roofed houses for my mother!"

"Whether you can repair the tiled house or not is of secondary importance, but mother needs to check you carefully. Are you my son? Or is some demon possessing my son? When did that idiot become so smart?"

Li Ye laughed dryly and said: "Mom! Even if you are possessed, you are a deity from heaven and descended to earth, okay? How can it be a monster?"

Pei Sanniang curled her lips, "How about a god? A god would never think of such a vicious idea!"

Of course, Pei Sanniang just said it casually. Her stupid son was opened up by a stick, and she was too late to be happy.

She quickly ordered: "Stop talking nonsense. If you want to move, help me pack my things quickly!"
