Chapter 44
Feng Ziying, in the small Yamen of the Great Conquering General's family, is a well-known dandy in the capital. If you compare arrogance and domineering, he may be worse than the playboys of the Jia family.
Sun Shaozong really doesn't want to get too close with this kind of person.
But in this sad world, Sun Shaozong could not escape the words ‘Connection’ and ‘Favor’. In order not to make it difficult for his big brother to work in front of the Great Conquering General, Sun Shaozong had to go to the appointment reluctantly at noon on the 30th day of the first month.
When he arrived at the Baihua Restaurant, he saw dozens of green gauzes hanging from the railings on the second floor. They were swaying with the northwest wind and made most of the streets filled with sultry provocative femininity.
Seeing this scene, Sun Shaozong knew that it was not a serious restaurant, and he was a bit unhappy. Although he was also lecherous, he never liked provoking women in the prostitutes' quarter. Even if he went out with his colleagues to have fun, he would stop after getting a little knowledge of the subject.
"Hello~!"
At this time, he saw a man who works as a handyman in a green coat and a small hat greet him. He nodded and bowed cautiously and asked, "Are your surname Sun? Coming here to attend the wine bureau of Guard Feng?"
Sun Shaozong nodded slightly, and the man who works as a handyman hurriedly led him to a path on the left, "Please follow me, Master. Guard Feng has booked Miss Yun'er's courtyard today, so I'd need to trouble you to take two more steps."
Tch~
The Emperor's imperial concubine nuisance wants to live in a different courtyard for paying a visit to one's parents or elders. Unexpectedly, the prostitute in the brothel has the same hobby.Following the man who works as a handyman, he walked along the path for more than a hundred steps and saw that there was a mansion across the front. The decoration in front of the gate was no different from that of ordinary rich and powerful families. Only the plaque in the middle was inscribed with the word "Jinxiang Courtyard".
Sun Shaozong has yet to take a closer look. A man in the Jinxiang Courtyard has already stepped out quickly. He is a big, strong man with a simple and manly spirit, but it is the foolish overlord Xue Pan!
Last time, Sun Shaozong gave this guy a big embarrassment. Seeing that this guy came out, he had to be vigilant.
However, Xue Pan was very familiar. Regardless of the situation, he first took Sun Shaozong's bridle under his crotch and said, "Brother Sun made me wait for a long time! Let's go. Let's take you to tie up the horse first, and then we'll go to find Brother Feng for fun!"
This address of ‘Second Brother Sun’ and ‘younger brother’, really confused Sun Shao Zong. He let him lead his horse with the bridle to the hitching post. He was about to turn over and dismount before asking the reason, but Xue Pan folded his legs and half-knelt in front of the horse. He saw that he wanted to act as a ‘stepping stone’ for himself to get down.
Sun Shaozong couldn't hold his breath now. He turned his eyebrows for a while and couldn't find out what Xue Pan wanted to do. He simply asked straight to the point, "Master Xue, if you have any advice, please tell me. Why are you acting like that?"
"You must be joking Second Brother. How dare I advise you?"
Xue Pan shook his head and gave an exaggerated thumbs-up, "Now in the forty-nine cities, who doesn't know that you are a first-class hero who can kill a thief when you get on the horse and solve a case when you get off the horse! If I know that the Qian Xiang woman is prohibited, I dare not talk nonsense with my mouth!"
After that, seeing Sun Shaozong still looking suspicious, he quickly put it clearly, "I can't stand those cowards in my life, and I am most convinced by the capable hero. If I am bullied by the cowards, even if I kill his whole family later, I’m not happy! But if I am defeated in the hands of the hero, I will be convinced!"
Only then did Sun Shaozong realize that he had met a ‘foolish man’, whose mind could not be inferred from common sense at all. Therefore, he was too lazy to think about it anymore. He turned over and dismounted from the other side, casually saying, "Since it was a misunderstanding, how about we treat it as "an exchange of blows friendship grows"?"
Although Sun Shaozong was very uncomfortable about that incident at the beginning, this guy first suffered a loss in his hands, and now he is putting on an attitude of pleading guilty. He can't continue to pursue the matter.
"I will do as you say!"
Xue Pan jumped up from the ground, he smiled widely and said triumphantly, "I asked before I came. Miss Yun'er in the Jinxiang Courtyard has just hung up the sign and hasn't served the first customer as a prostitute yet. Today, I helped you take the lead to be her first. It can be said that I'm sorry for that day's collision with my sister-in-law."
This fool is really generous. He's afraid if there aren’t three to five thousand taels, he can't make it to the first night of getting to the capital‘s most popular courtesan.
It's a pity that Sun Shaozong didn't like this, so he refused, "I appreciate your kindness, but I don't have any interest in prostitutes. I'd better leave this blessing to you."
"Ah!"
Unexpectedly, Xue Pan immediately patted his thigh when he heard the speech, gathered up, and said with a lubricious smile, "To tell you the truth, I also love the married young women in a good family the most. Last time, I saw a beautiful little woman in Xizhimen. Because her husband was nearby, she just kept pushing and pushing, bit, and kicking, but she didn't dare to shout. In the end, I got my hand on it. It was refreshing!"
‘The fuck!’
He only said that he didn't like prostitutes. How could it become a preference for a married young woman from a good family?
Sun Shaozong couldn't help shouting abuse in his heart, and listening to Xue Pan's description, this is clearly the act of raping the woman?!
For a while, he wanted to turn his face directly and sent this fool to the Central Judicial Office for justice!
"Big head Xue!"
At this time, he heard a laugh and scolded from the Jinxiang Courtyard, "I ask you to welcome your guests. How can you stop them outside the door?!”
Before his words were over, he saw a valiant, distinguished, and admirable young man step over the threshold, took a few steps, and saluted, "This should be the Second Master of the Sun family? I have heard that your name is like thunder piercing the ear. Today I take the liberty to invite you. I hope you can be magnanimous enough to forgive or tolerate any shortcomings!"
Originally, Sun Shaozong had no good impression of Feng Ziying, but from this point of view, he was a person who was not inferior to lofty sentiments and coquettishness. No wonder they all said that he was the best among the dandies.
Sun Shaozong hurriedly returned a greeting, and after this delay, his mind about arresting Xue Pan was also weakened.
As an Assistant Prefectural Magistrate of the criminal, they would make a copy of a file to him for any case within the scope of the Central Judicial Office, but he had never seen anyone use Xue Pan since he took over the position.
Obviously, if the woman wasn't coaxed by Xue Pan, she was too shy to tell the story because of the word ‘chastity’. She did not dare to alert the government. Since the woman was unwilling to show up, why would he risk the world's condemnation?
In the final analysis, Sun Shaozong is not the one who is desperate to do justice to strangers.
So the three of them talked and laughed politely, and they went to enter the Jinxiang courtyard.
Who knows, at this time, only to hear the rumble and roaring hooves of horses on the path, around 40 to 50 people on the horse came galloping like a whirlwind that sweeps away scattered clouds. All the horses were full of military men with strong bodies and whistles. Only the leader was a white fat man with a bloody nose and a swollen face.
Seeing the three men standing side by side in front of him, the fat man immediately gnashed his teeth and shouted, "Come on, tie up this Feng! If I, Qiu Yunfei, don’t make you kneel on the ground and call me your grandpa today, I will change to your surname in the future!"
