Chapter 862 Mr. Lu
The pedestrians near the pier have long since left, and even the boatmen on the nearby ships have gone into hiding. It is so quiet here that not even a bird is seen.
Pang Xiao withdrew his eyes from looking at the surrounding environment, and then carefully looked at the servants who were brought to the hospital by the other party. With an idea in his mind, he cleared his throat and deliberately made a stern and inward gesture.
"Who are you, why are you standing in front of my young master's boat?"
"I dare to ask this brother, is there a young man named Lu Xi on the ship today?"
Pang Xiao stretched his neck, put his arms around Qin Yining's waist and raised his chin and said: "What if, what if, if it doesn't? If that bitch dares to run wild in front of me, I will catch him of course!"
Lu Zheng's face darkened: "I am Lu Zheng, the eldest son of the Lu family, and Lu Xi is my follower. Since my brother admitted that he captured Lu Xi, let him be released. This will save you and me the trouble, otherwise... "
Before he finished speaking, the threat was already obvious.
Pang Xiao waved his hand behind his back towards Hu Zi.
Huzi and the few elite tiger guards, who had tense muscles and were ready to attack at any time, all understood. Although they were unwilling to accept it, they still behaved like frightened birds, trembling and looking at each other, as if they were afraid of the opponent's overwhelming numbers.
"What's so great about the eldest son of the Lu family?" Pang Xiao shouted, "Do you know who I am? I am the eldest son of the Wan family in Guangtong! I am here to discuss business with the Lu family on behalf of our Wan family! It's a good thing that you are the young master of the Lu family. I am your big patron! When your servants come to me and make a fuss, they even use the young master's money. If I don't send people directly to the government, they will be given preferential treatment. You want people Okay, do you have to compensate me? My beauty is frightened by your servants!" He looked like if Lu Zheng didn't give in, the business wouldn't be possible.
Lu Zheng laughed angrily.
It turns out that this idiot was sent by Guangtong to negotiate? Could it be that all the people on the Guangtong ship were dead, so they sent such a thing?
Lu Zheng couldn't help but look Pang Xiao up and down, it was just an embroidered pillow.
After so many years of walking outside, this was the first time he saw someone dare to stand up in front of the Lu family, act so carelessly, and never know when or how he would die.
Turning around, he suddenly saw the face of the woman in the straw bag's arms. Lu Zheng's heart palpitated, and his mind seemed to be empty for a moment.
The woman's delicate appearance seemed to be carefully carved from a single piece of white jade.
Even the best craftsmen would probably not be able to carve such a perfect appearance. In addition, she has a delicate appearance and lingering watery eyes. She leans shyly and timidly in the arms of the young master of the Wan family. Her timid appearance really touches people's hearts.
At this moment, Lu Zheng seemed to feel that something was growing crazily in his heart.
Such a stunning beauty, how could she be given such a idiot? It’s really defiled!
Lu Zheng was already dissatisfied with the person in front of him, but now he was even more dissatisfied, and even more jealous. Why did God treat such a thing so favorably that he allowed him to meet a beauty first?
"Your beauty was frightened? What did you say you wanted to compensate you for?" Lu Zheng's voice was extremely cold.
Pang Xiao's eyes flashed with greed at the right time.
"You want to give me silver? Ha! I don't want you to have more money, so as not to embarrass you, or just ten million taels of silver."
Lu Zheng almost couldn't help but roll his eyes. How could such a mediocre person negotiate on behalf of the Wan family?
He now really doubts the ability of the Guangtong Hao. For such a family, let alone buying an imperial envoy, even if all the local officials, big and small, belong to his family, the business will be lost sooner or later.
Lu Zheng flicked his sleeves and put his hands behind his back, "Ten million taels of silver is not much."
"Yeah, let's just say that your family has a great business, and ten million taels is just a hair-drop. Yesterday, my beauty was frightened to tears by that reckless man, and it made my heart hurt. One thousand taels It’s not too much to buy her two sets of noodles with ten thousand taels of silver, and give the young master some supplements for me.”
Lu Zheng smiled, "Such a stunning beauty is indeed worthy of ten million taels of silver, but you...heh, besides, that beauty is not mine, why should I pay for it?"
There was always an unconfused man standing next to Lu Zheng.
The man had a mustache and stared straight at Qin Yining. Hearing these words, he felt as if he was suddenly relieved.
"That's right! My young master bought that woman for 10 million taels of silver, and you made a lot of money. If you send Lu Xi back, our accounts can be wiped off. Master Wan, please think carefully about such a good thing. But it doesn’t happen all the time. If you anger my young master, you might lose your personal fortune!"
Pang Xiao suddenly felt angry, suppressing his anger and warned himself not to ruin the big event. That's why he didn't rush directly to kill.
"I won't sell the beauty. I haven't had enough fun yet." Pang Xiao crossed his arms and said, "If you are willing to pay ten million taels of silver to redeem me, you can take that nonsense servant back. If Otherwise, forget it, the government will say it’s just right.”
Huzi and Bingtang were furious when they saw someone coveting the princess, and immediately stood up to help.
"That's right, after all, when our young master goes to drink wine and redeem a sister's body, it's all our own business. If someone comes out and insists on claiming to be that sister's fiancé, it doesn't count if he doesn't pay, and he still has to pay for it. We surrendered the man and then said evil words to our young master. Is it wrong for our young master to arrest him and send him to the government?"
Pang Xiao acted like a idiot and jumped up and down in agreement: "Yes, is that wrong?"
Lu Zheng suddenly smiled and said, "What kind of place do you think this is? A place where I can reason with you? Ask which way the gate of the Yamen opens."
After speaking, he seemed to have lost his patience and waved his hand behind him.
The fifty or sixty servants who came with him rushed directly onto the ship like a swarm of swarms.
"Get out of the way, everyone squat down!"
"Everyone squat down and don't move, otherwise I will throw you all into the green lake!"
A group of people ran amok, causing the cook and boatman on the ship to scream. In the dark night, the screams on the pier could be heard far away, as if a huge tragedy had occurred.
Pang Xiao gestured to Huzi from behind, telling him and everyone not to fight back.
Huzi understood, and acted as cowards together with Jinghuwei, shouting "spare my life" loudly.
All of a sudden, there was a lot of excitement on the boat.
Pang Xiao just hugged Qin Yining tightly, pretending to be frightened, fell to the ground and shouted: "What do you want to do? Are you trying to rob? Did the Lu family get rich by robbing?" Are you afraid that you are not a fake? How can the eldest young master of the Lu family still commit robbery? Is there any justice in this? I spent money to redeem someone, but you guys come to rob me one by one, why are you so shameless!"
When Qin Yining heard what Pang Xiao said, he almost couldn't continue the act and laughed out loud.
With Pang Xiao's excellent acting skills, would he have acted like this in the court? Was Li Qitian almost so angry that he vomited blood?
Qin Yining didn't know what happened in the past, but Lu Zheng's face turned pale with anger at this moment.
"Shut up! If you keep talking nonsense, I will throw you into the lake to feed the fish!"
Pang Xiao shut his mouth immediately, feeling hearty.
The boat was only so big, and soon someone found Lu Xi and Fuxue from the cabin.
Lu Xi's tears were still wet, and there were no obvious wounds on her body, but she looked very haggard. Lu Zheng frowned and immediately ordered: "Why don't you let go soon?"
The middle-aged man who had just spoken to Lu Zheng immediately stepped forward and loosened the rope around Lu Xi.
Lu Xi raised his head and said in a daze: "Thank you very much, Shopkeeper Yuanda."
"Get up quickly. The eldest young master knew that you didn't return home after you came out. As if he was worried about something, he came with people to look for you overnight." Shopkeeper Yuanda sighed.
Lu Xi climbed up and kowtowed to Lu Zheng full of apology and remorse: "Young master, it's the younger one, it's me who doesn't know what to do...it's my fault, it's my fault!"
After learning the truth, he was deeply shocked. At this time, he also understood Lu Zheng's hard work, and even more ruthlessly why Fu Xue wanted to play with him and use him like this.
Regret, self-blame, anger, sadness, all kinds of emotions were mixed together. Lu Xi burst into tears for a while, lying on the ground and crying uncontrollably.
Lu Zheng didn't understand what was going on for a moment. Seeing Lu Xi crying so sadly, he felt sad in his heart. He quickly helped the person up with his hands. He didn't ask any extra questions and just said: "Okay, what's the matter? Let’s discuss the matter after we go back. These people dare to imprison you, I must teach them a lesson!”
Lu Zheng looked at Pang Xiao, who was still sitting on the ground, as if his legs were too weak to stand up, and smiled mockingly, "Take these people to the county jail and lock them up."
"yes."
Shopkeeper Yuanda immediately responded, hurriedly ordered people to take down the clothes of everyone on the boat, and went out specially to follow them.
Pang Xiao showed no resistance and was so frightened that she almost peed her pants. She didn't know whether it was because she was too frightened or something else. She held Qin Yining's hand and refused to relax at all, as if a drowning person was holding on to the driftwood to save her life.
Shopkeeper Yuanda tried to pull it open several times but didn't pull it open. He cursed secretly that this idiot was really a pervert and even at this moment, he still didn't forget to hug the beauty.
The beauty was frightened, and the way she buried her head and cried really made people feel pity for her. Shopkeeper Yuanda's heart was almost broken because of her love for her.
The servants and nurses took down everyone on the Pang Xiao Hua Fang, and without avoiding anyone, they marched towards the county prison in a mighty manner. Residents along the street who heard the noise couldn't help but push their windows open a little. Look out through the gap.
On the pier, Fu Xue knelt on the ground, kowtowing tremblingly in the night wind: "Master, please spare me, I know your mistake. I don't dare to do it anymore. I don't dare to do it anymore!"
Lu Zheng didn't even look at her and called Lu Xi: "Go back home."
"Yes." Lu Xi followed Lu Zheng's footsteps and never looked at Fu Xue again.
Fuxue knelt on the spot in a daze, looking at the backs of the two of them with confusion in her eyes.
Did the eldest young master let her go?
Lu Zheng asked Lu Xi: "What's going on? You're fine, how could you be caught?"
Lu Xi felt ashamed and objectively told what happened. He thought for a moment and then said:
"Young Master, I think that Young Master Wan may not be as idiotic as he seems on the surface."
