I am not Yuan Shu

Chapter 164 My knife is not sharp!

Seeing Yuan Shu coming to rescue them personally, these twenty-odd people were so moved that their eyes filled with tears. They couldn't help crying at the gate of the Sili Xiaowei Mansion, pouring out all the grievances in their hearts.

Yuan Shu went forward one by one to check on their condition, and was furious when he saw how badly they were beaten.

"You attacked Liangzhuang, beat up my students, and arrested people at random. We can't just let this go. Tell me, how do you plan to solve this?"

Yuan Shu leaned on his knife and stared at Duan Ying's unlucky subordinates with cold eyes.

He had a flattering expression on his face, smiled carefully, and said slowly, "Mr. Yuan, what do you think is the best solution?"

"You beat up my students, caught them, and locked them up. This is really a huge blow to them. Look at the way they beat you. Shouldn't you pay for the medical expenses?"

"This... I wonder how to calculate the medical expenses?"

"One million yuan per person."

"One million...Mr. Yuan, this is too...too much, right?"

The unlucky guy looked at Yuan Shu in disbelief, "Why would medical expenses cost so much? One million per person, so for 24 people, wouldn't it be 24 million? Master Yuan, even if we are really wrong, you can't do this, right?"

"This is just the beginning!"

Yuan Shu sneered, "I believe that if someone doesn't offend me, I won't offend anyone. If someone offends me, I will definitely offend them. You took the initiative to provoke me, and you still expect me to keep quiet? You wish! Hand over the people who beat them, and my disciples will fight back in the same way they beat them.

After they are beaten back, they will be taken to Liangzhuang to do voluntary labor for three days as compensation to my students and Liangzhuang. In this way, this matter will be over, and we will not interfere with each other in the future. If you do not agree, I will pursue this matter to the end!"

Yuan Shu originally lacked an excuse to intervene in this matter, and was worrying about what reason he could use to intervene reasonably. Now, Duan Ying took the initiative to offer him an excuse, how could he let it go easily?
The unlucky guy had no idea how to answer Yuan Shu, so he could only make the excuse that he couldn't make the decision and ran back to the mansion to tell Duan Xing about the matter.

Duan Xing immediately became angry.

"Twenty-four million yuan? Why doesn't he come and rob? And he wants my subordinates to do voluntary labor for him? Ridiculous! The officials and slaves in Zhongdu are all government officials. How can he have the qualifications to ask the officials and slaves in Zhongdu to work for him? How outrageous!"

Duan Xing couldn't hold back his anger and walked straight to the door, ready to teach Yuan Shu a lesson.

The unlucky guy tried to stop it but failed. Seeing that the situation was about to deteriorate, he could only send someone to the palace to find Wang Fu and let Wang Fu take charge of the situation.

Duan Xing rushed out of the Sili Xiaowei Mansion in anger, and immediately saw the tall and strong Yuan Shu standing at the main entrance of the Sili Xiaowei Mansion with a knife in his hand, looking very arrogant, as if he was the only one in the world.

The officials and slaves in the surrounding capital looked at him with fear, but no one dared to provoke him or get close to him.

Duan Xing suddenly became even angrier.

"Yuan Shu! The Sili Xiaowei Mansion is an important place for the imperial court! How dare you, a commoner, make trouble here?! Leave now! Otherwise, I will arrest you and punish you!"

When Yuan Shu saw that the man was wearing the official uniform of a 2,000-stone official, was relatively old, and had an extraordinary aura, he knew that this man was Duan Xing.

So he is here.

It seems that I was just given the run-in.

Thinking of this, Yuan Shu became even more unhappy.

"I do not hold a proper official position, but Captain Duan, please do not forget that I am the emperor's tutor, responsible for accompanying the emperor in his studies. I am not a commoner in any way. Moreover, I am here to seek justice. How can I be considered a tantrum? This is inappropriate!"

"Huh! The emperor's tutor?"

Duan Xing sneered, "You are the tutor of the emperor who has never seen the emperor? What a joke! If you tell others about it, aren't you afraid that everyone in the Yuan family will laugh at you! Don't you think the insults you received before are not enough? Go now! Otherwise, I will show no mercy and will arrest you and punish you!"

"This is not a joke. Wang Fu came to my house with an imperial decree to announce it."

Yuan Shu retorted, "It was your master from Xiliang who personally came to the Yuan family's mansion to announce this. Do you want to go back and ask your master if this is true? Ask him how he begged me to be the emperor's tutor!"

Before Yuan Shu finished speaking, Duan Ying's face suddenly changed, and he became furious. He drew the knife from his waist and pointed it at Yuan Shu.

"How dare you insult me, you little brat!!"

Yuan Shu also drew his sword and pointed it at Duan Xing.

"The old dog insulted me first, so why can't I insult the old dog? Those who insult others will always be insulted by others!"

Duan Xing was so angry that his face turned red and veins popped out on his forehead.

"How dare you talk back at me, little boy! Do you think that because I'm old, the knife in my hand is no longer sharp? Do you want to try it?"

Yuan Shu did not give in. His eyes widened, his face full of anger and murderous intent.

"My knife is not bad! Do you want to try it?"

When Duan Xing saw that Yuan Shu dared to confront him and refused to back down, he became even more furious, and his whole body was filled with murderous intent. "How dare you! How dare you! Do you really think I dare not kill you?"

Yuan Shu was not afraid at all and just glared.

"You dare to kill me, so I dare not kill you? Come on if you dare! Let's see whose knife is sharper!"

In the interval between the two men's confrontation, the members of the Security Department and the officials and slaves of Zhongdu also drew their swords and confronted each other, glaring at each other.

The situation at the gate of the Sili Xiaowei Mansion was tense again, as if a fight would break out if there was a disagreement, and no one knew how many people would be killed on the spot.

Duan Xing really wanted to kill someone. He really wanted to chop the hateful bastard in front of him into two pieces with a swing of his knife, just like when he killed the leader of the Qiang people.

But this is not the battlefield of Liangzhou, and Yuan Shu is not the leader of the Qiang people.

Judging from the fact that Yuan Shu confronted him without backing down, Yuan Shu must have killed someone before.

He has killed people, is brave, and never backs down or gives in when facing me. In this case, Duan Xing is really not easy to deal with.

Although he was angry and wanted to kill someone, he knew that this was not Xiliang but Luoyang, and this was not his home ground. Yuan Shu was much stronger than him in terms of momentum and reputation.

Wang Fu had also specifically stated that one should not be an enemy of him and should not provoke him, so he just wanted to scare Yuan Shu away.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu was so courageous that he confronted him with a knife at the gate of the "crouching tiger" government office of the Inspector of the Imperial Guards, and he was determined to achieve his goal.

What should I do?

Duan Ying felt like he was in a difficult situation.

Thinking of Yuan Shu's father, the Grand Coachman, and his uncle, Situ, Duan Xing knew that he could not really do anything to Yuan Shu no matter what. Otherwise, if the Yuan family got angry, he would definitely suffer.

The eunuch had just suffered a defeat at the hands of the Yuan family. If another fight broke out, he would definitely be thrown out as a scapegoat and lose everything.

When he thought of this, he could only put down the knife in his hand with hatred.

"Put down your knives! This is the Sili Xiaowei's government office, an important government site, you are not allowed to mess around!"

At his command, the officials and slaves in Zhongdu hesitated for a moment and then put down their swords.

Seeing this, Yuan Shu knew that Duan Ying had already given in, so he sneered and put down his knife.

"Put down your knives."

At his command, the security team members put down their knives.

The tense situation has been eased, but it was only a preliminary easing and the conflict between the two sides has not been resolved.

"Let's put aside the insult for now, Captain Duan. My student was arrested and beaten like this by the Sili Captain's Office. Won't the Sili Captain's Office give any explanation?"

"I don't know what happened. Maybe he was accidentally injured while arresting a treacherous criminal."

Duan Yu said coldly, "Of course, it is also possible that your student had contact with treacherous people and was caught. Yuan Shidu, the matter has not been investigated clearly yet, so please do not jump to conclusions."

"It was Captain Duan who made the rash conclusion, right?"

Yuan Shu sneered, "You can arrest people, but you have to produce evidence. You have to produce evidence to prove that my students are guilty. Only then can you arrest people. Otherwise, what basis do you have to arrest people?"

Duan Xing was very angry.

"Then how do you prove that they are not colluding with the treacherous people?"

“This is not something I should prove!”

Yuan Shu said angrily: "The one who arrested the person is responsible for proving this! Bring out the evidence and come arrest the person. If you can't produce the evidence, I will come to Captain Duan to ask for an explanation myself! Without evidence, how can we convince the public!"

Duan Xing was so angry that his face turned red. The hand holding the knife couldn't stop shaking. He wanted to hit Yuan Shu on the head with the knife again.

But he can't.

But he can't just give in so blatantly. If he does, wouldn't he lose face?

How can you continue to bully others with this group of Zhongdu officials and slaves?

So he decided to use his ultimate move to severely intimidate Yuan Shu and make him give up.

"Yuan Shu, don't forget, this is the Si Li Xiao Wei Mansion, I am the Si Li Xiao Wei, if you continue to make trouble, I will arrest you!"
