Bring some shock to the world of cultivating immortals

Xu Gong's face turned green.

He was feeling a little resentful now, hating himself for not killing these two guys who were more likely to cause trouble than help with one blow.

Prince, you dare to say this to someone of this status? Whether it is true or not, when these words are spoken, the servant and the housekeeper are already dead.

This is equivalent to you going to see a provincial official and the first thing you say is "the police chief you promoted is a drug dealer." If this is true, you will be the first to die. If this is false, you will also be the first to die.

Just because this is fake doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Xu Gong had naturally heard of Chunyi Tower, and even said that he had a share of the interest from Chunyi Tower. But it was not that he wanted to take the interest, but that he had to take it. You know, there were tens of thousands of people in the court, hundreds of officials in Beijing, and these hundreds of people, as the top people among the tens of thousands, had more or less spent money in Chunyi Tower, and it was a blatant consumption.

When Emperor Taizu was in power, he issued a decree prohibiting officials from visiting prostitutes, and Chunyilou was obviously not just a place for prostitution. Such places are usually very colorful, with all kinds of things you can think of and can't think of. In the days when Emperor Taizu was still in power, Chunyilou was probably similar to the Gulag Hotel. Once you enter, you're in.

You can come out.

Whether it is complete or not depends on whether your sebum can be separated.

Therefore, the existence of Chunyi Building is a kind of transaction. Those who go to the building to spend money personally hand over their money and handles to the "master" of the building, and the master will protect them like Chunyi Building and let them do those dirty things.

"Which wind brought Lord Xu here?"

At this moment, a feminine male voice suddenly came from behind the door not far away. Soon, a man in a Confucian robe and with a fair complexion walked out slowly. He put his hands behind his back and glanced at the servant under Zhou Li's feet with disgust in his eyes, "Or was it this turtle slave who offended Master Xu?"

"Jia Yu..."

Looking at the man in front of him, Xu Gong narrowed his eyes slightly, without any contempt, and asked: "Why are you in this Chunyi Tower?"

"Lord Xu started a big fuss and surrounded this Chunyi Tower, so disturbing that the guests dared not come to the door."

Walking to the side of Lord Xu, the man named Jia Yu said with a smile, "I don't mean to blame Lord Xu, I just want to know who came up with the idea to surround my family's property for no reason?"

Jia Yu must have his reasons for standing here.

He is the "Gui Yu" among the four nobles in the capital, the eldest son of the Jia family, and also the top scorer in this year's imperial examination. Standing here, he is equivalent to the prime minister talking directly to Xu Gong.

Because the Jia family was able to gain power thanks to the prime minister's promotion, the same goes for Jia Yu.

He looked at Mr. Xu, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, with a hint of viciousness in his smile.

It's time to replace the disobedient dog.

"There are dogs."

Zhou Li nodded and said, "There's a dog barking."

The silence in the air suddenly came to an abrupt end.

"Who is this?"

Jia Yu glanced at Zhou Li but didn't linger for too long. He still looked at Xu Gong and asked with a smile, "Is he Xu Gong's friend, or... a friend of the East Factory?"

"who is he."

Zhou Li pointed at Jia Yu and asked.

Jia Yu's mocking voice could be heard from the not-so-wide side hall. Obviously, he looked down on this country bumpkin who didn't even recognize himself, the number one scholar on the imperial examination.

"He is this year's top scholar and the eldest son of the Jia family in the capital."

Mr. Xu said respectfully.

Jia Yu suddenly realized something was wrong.

what happened?

He looked at Xu Gong, with surprise in his eyes. How could Xu Gong, who was always known for his smiling face, be so respectful to such a young boy? In an instant, Jia Yu realized that Zhou Li was not an ordinary person.

"Oh~"

Zhou Li suddenly realized what was going on. He looked at Jia Yu who was about to speak and asked with a smile, "How many people are there in your family?"

Facing Zhou Li's kindly questioning, Jia Yu was instantly displeased. He looked at Zhou Li, without answering for a moment, then smiled a not-so-friendly smile and said:

"Fortunately, I have received the great kindness of the Prime Minister. There are several hundred people in my family, and several of them are officials."

"Oh~"

Zhou Li suddenly realized, and then laughed: "Then they don't need a stray dog ​​like you, right?"

Ok?
Jia Yu was stunned for a moment.

Then he couldn't stay stunned.

Zhou Li kicked Jia Yu in the abdomen. Jia Yu's eyes were red with anger, and he flew backwards, landing heavily on the silver-rimmed wooden cabinet, smashing it into pieces. Jia Yu rolled his eyes and passed out.

"Let the Jia family send someone over."

Glancing at the half-dead Jia Yu, Zhou Li said calmly, "Tell them that Jia Yu is in this building. Let their family heads kneel outside the door for five hours. If they can't kneel for enough hours, their bodies are not straight enough, and their backs are not straight enough, we will just dismantle Jia Yu's parts until there is nothing left to dismantle."

The building fell into deathly silence.

Xu Gong looked at Zhou Li in disbelief, and for a moment he was speechless. He had never expected that Zhou Li would be so resolute, not even leaving a trace of leeway, and directly turning against the Jia family.

"Mr. Zhou... this..."

Mr. Xu was a little confused. He couldn't react to what Zhou Li had done.

"obedient."

Zhou Li gave Xu Gong a kind smile and said, "Of course, if you don't want to go, just find any Jinyiwei to go."

Xu Gong was silent.

He looked at Jia Yu, whose life or death was unknown, and his mind went blank for a moment. He clenched his fists involuntarily and fell into a strange state.

"No one likes fence-sitters."

Holding Xu Gong's shoulders, Zhou Li said softly, "If you had surrendered to the prime minister earlier, I would not have forced you. But now, you must do something convincing so that I can do my best to make sure those who treat you as a running dog will not be able to look down on you."

"For example... entering the realm of quality."

Xu Gong's pupils suddenly trembled.

Enter the product.

As the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, although Xu Gong was a fourth-rank official on the surface, in fact everyone knew that he was not on the list and was simply an official without rank or status, but he had more power and could do more things.

But in essence, he was just a dog. If he was killed, they would just need to replace him with a new commander, without changing the roster, and the country would not mourn him at all.

Before this, Xu Gong had always accepted his fate, a fate that no longer mattered to him. But when he heard Zhou Li's words "enter the rank", his heart still trembled.

"No one can be conferred a title without rank. We must always consider future generations."

This sentence became the last straw that broke the camel's back for Xu Gong.

"I go."

He said: "I will go to Jia's house myself." (End of this chapter)
