Corrupt official in the Red Chamber

Chapter 228
Such a Xue Pan, rich and powerful, who dares to beat him?

Jia Rui was actually not happy in his heart. There is a saying: It depends on the owner to beat a dog. If you beat Xue Pan, wouldn't you make yourself unhappy?

"What's going on? Who dares to do anything?"

Jia Rong blinked and then said: "It's not clear yet. Why don't you ask Uncle Xue Pan in person?"

Jia Rui nodded, got off his horse, and then headed straight for Jia Rong's family with his servants and guards.

Jia Rong also quickly followed Jia Rui and walked forward.

Arriving among the group of people, Jia Rui separated from the crowd and walked away. When he entered, he saw someone being carried on a stretcher, and it turned out to be Xue Pan.

Xue Pan doesn't look good now, his nose is bruised and his face is swollen, and he looks like a pig's head after being beaten.

And lying there moaning and groaning in pain, he really looked like a fat pig.

Seeing Xue Pan like this, Jia Rui wanted to laugh out loud, but in the end he suppressed it. After all, he was his elder brother-in-law, and he had suffered so much, so it was unreasonable for him to laugh at him again.

Jia Rui cleared his throat, pretended to cough a few times, walked to Xue Pan's side, and asked, "What trouble did you get into again? Who hit you?"

Xue Pan looked at Jia Rui as if he had seen a savior. He opened his mouth to say something, but was immediately suppressed and his eyes dodged.

Finally, Jia Rui asked again, and Xue Pan muttered: "Is nothing wrong? I just fell off the horse."

Jia Rui was laughed out of anger by Xue Pan. He was beaten until his nose was black and his eyes were swollen, or was he thrown off his horse?What kind of stone could fall like this?
Since he wasn't going to say anything, he knew that this guy must have done something stupid and he didn't dare to let himself know, so Jia Rui didn't ask any more questions. He just waved his hand and said to Jia Rong below: "Carry him up and follow him." I’m going back home.”

After finishing speaking, Jia Rui turned around and came to his team, then got on his horse and walked away with the people in front.

When Jia Rong saw him, he quickly called to his servant, "Hurry, hurry, catch up."

In this way, a group of people arrived in front of Dingxihou Mansion in a noisy manner, and then entered the mansion through the side door.

Then, Jia Rui got off his horse and asked the servants in his house to carry Xue Pan to the inner house, and then ordered someone to ask a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.

After settling Xue Pan, Jia Rui took Jia Rong into the outer study.

As soon as he entered the outer study, Jia Rong immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Jia Rui again.

"My nephew sends my regards to my uncle."

Jia Rui smiled slightly, and then said: "Get up and find a seat by yourself."

Only then did Jia Rong dare to stand up carefully, and then sat down on a seat not far from Jia Rui. However, she did not dare to sit down fully. She only dared to sit half-assed on the chair, ready to stand when Jia Rui asked. stand up.

"How are you doing at Longjing Lieutenant during this time?"

Jia Rong quickly stood up and replied, "Everything is well with Lieutenant Long. During this period, I met the Supreme Emperor several times while on duty, but he was far away and the Supreme Emperor did not talk to us."

Jia Rui nodded, feeling a little amused.

Judging from what Jia Rong meant, he was treating himself as a role model.

He still wants to talk to the Supreme Emperor?Just thinking about it being appreciated by the Supreme Emperor and soaring into the sky?
This is simply asking for death!

Others didn't know how dangerous he was back then, but didn't Jia Rui still know it in his heart?
If it hadn't been for the existence of the soul-catching talisman back then, the grass on his grave would have been taller now.

But Jia Rui is not going to remind Jia Rong, because he must know that his revenge has not yet been avenged!Jia Rong is still fine now. If he really collided with the Supreme Emperor, it was his destiny to do so, so he would not blame himself for not reminding him.

And at that time, I can still show my righteousness in front of the Supreme Emperor and make the Supreme Emperor feel more at ease with me. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?

So Jia Rui quickly changed the topic.

"What happened today? Did Xue Pan let people be beaten like this?"

Jia Rong actually had some guesses about what happened to Xue Pan today, but he couldn't tell them on the street just now, otherwise, Xue Pan would be offended to death.

With the current power of Jia Zhen and Jia Rong's family, they dare not offend Xue Pan.

Now he and Jia Rui were the only two people left in the study, so there was nothing to hide.

"Uncle, my nephew guessed that a friend named Liu Xianglian who was drinking with him probably beat him."

When the name Liu Xianglian was mentioned, Jia Rui suddenly remembered a passage from Dream of Red Mansions.

But Jia Rui acted as if he didn't know, "This friend of yours is so courageous that he dares to beat Xue Pan. Aren't you afraid that Xue Pan will find someone to take revenge on him after he recovers?"

Jia Rong was also a little strange. Liu Xianglian didn't know how to advance and retreat. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to hang out with these young masters.

what is it today?You are so brave that you dare to beat Xue Pan like this?Is it because of that incident?

"What is the origin of Liu Xianglian?"

Jia Rong hurriedly said: "Back to my uncle, he was originally a child of an aristocratic family. He couldn't study well. His parents died early. He was a chivalrous person by nature. He didn't pay attention to details. He loved to play guns and swords, gamble and eat wine. He even slept in flowers, slept in willows, and played the flute. Playing the zither, he can do anything. Because he is young and beautiful, people who don't know his identity mistakenly think he is an actor."

Jia Rong gave Jia Rui a nod to let Jia Rui prepare mentally in advance, otherwise Jia Rui would probably vomit if he said something even more disgusting later.Jia Rui was not a fool. He understood it as soon as he heard this.

However, Jia Rui has always had a question, that is, in the Dream of Red Mansions, is Liu Xianglian really as strong as she is, or is she just pretending?

"What about him?"

Jia Rong blinked, and then replied truthfully: "I don't have a very good relationship with others. I just have a good relationship with Baoyu and often go out together."

After hearing this, Jia Rui touched his forehead. How could he forget Jia Baoyu?
You must know that in Dream of Red Mansions, Jia Baoyu is the protagonist. Whether he is a girl or a handsome boy, everyone is very close to him.

There used to be Qin Zhong and Chess Official, and now there is Liu Xianglian. There is nothing strange about it.

Jia Rui didn’t even know what to say?

Are all the beautiful women in the world dead?Xue Pan has a crush on a man?
"I know about this. You can go back first. I'll find you again after a while."

Jia Rong was overjoyed after hearing this.

Jia Rui is now a bachelor of the cabinet, or even the chief minister of the cabinet. He has a lot of things to do, so if he finds time to meet with him, he must arrange a good errand for himself.

So Jia Rong happily flattered Jia Rui a few more times, and then left.

After Jia Rong left, Jia Rui walked to the back house in a hurry.

As soon as he entered Xue Baochai's yard, he heard Xue Pan's screams and curses coming from the guest room next to him.

Jia Rui shook his head. He really had nothing to do with this uncle.

As he spoke, Jia Rui walked into the guest room and saw Xue Baochai standing in the distance, wiping tears with a handkerchief.

In front of the bed where Xue Pan was lying, a doctor was applying medicine to his face.

The doctor was quite careful. After applying the medicine on Xue Pan's face, he also checked Xue Pan's body. Everything was considered normal. Suddenly, when he touched Xue Pan's chest, he felt a burst of pain. The doctor also changed his expression.

Then the doctor turned around, bowed to Jia Rui and Xue Baochai, and then said: "Please step away from the female relatives in the room. I want to check other parts of the patient."

Jia Rui nodded to Xue Baochai, signaling her to go out with confidence.

Although Xue Baochai was worried about Xue Pan, but forced by etiquette, he still took the maids and left.

When there were only a few servants left in the room, the doctor began to carefully examine Xue Pan's chest injury.

After a while, the doctor stopped with a solemn expression.

He first washed his hands in a copper basin, then walked to Jia Rui and said, "Sir, the patient's injury is not serious. He probably broke two ribs. Fortunately, the people who carried him back were careful, otherwise the ribs would have been inserted." If your lungs are damaged, your life may not be saved.”

Jia Rui has also been on the battlefield, so he naturally knows how dangerous this kind of injury is.

Perhaps in modern society, people can survive safely with superb medical technology, but in ancient times, once they encountered such a massive bleeding situation, it was almost impossible to survive.

Jia Rui is also angry now.

Even though Xue Pan is nothing, he hasn't caused any substantial harm to you, Liu Xianglian. You can just beat him to vent your anger, but why do you want to be so cruel?
But Xue Pan's injury is still the most important thing now. Once everything is fine here, it won't be too late to cause trouble for Liu Xianglian.

So Jia Rui slightly arched his hands and said: "Then please sir, please do your best. After Xue Pan recovers from his injury, I will ask him to prepare a heavy gift to thank you sir."

The doctor kept saying he didn't dare.

Then the doctor asked Jia Rui to go out and wait while he worked on Xue Pan's bones in the room.

The doctor in this house has really good medical skills. Although he is not a royal doctor in the palace, he is still famous in this area. After all, those who live near Ningrong Street are all dignitaries. Can he treat these people? Two brushes won’t do.

Therefore, Jia Rui and Xue Baochai were outside and only heard a few vague sounds of pain from Xue Pan, and then there was no sound.

After a while, the doctor came out. Jia Rui saw his relaxed expression and knew that Xue Pan was fine.

Although he thought so, he still walked forward and bowed his hands to the doctor, and then asked: "How is the patient?"

"Sir, I have connected the patient's bones, and then applied my secret plaster, and then I will prescribe a few more medicines. You can let the patient take it for a month, and then he will be fine for more than a month. ”

Jia Rui nodded gratefully, and then quickly ordered Brother Ying to lead the doctor to prescribe medicine.

After the doctor left, Xue Baochai asked with an angry face: "Who is so bold? Don't you have the king's law?"

Jia Rui glanced at her angrily, and then said, "The dirty things your brother did, it's a light thing to give him a beating."

Just as the two were talking, Ying'er hurriedly came in from outside the yard.

"Uncle, grandma, the Xue family is here."
