Chapter 5 Chapter Five
A horse sedan drove slowly into Wangxiazhuang, and stopped in front of the Ding's courtyard.The tall man in Tsing Yi and the hat jumped out of the carriage nimbly, put the pedals down, lifted the curtain, and said with a smile, "Jiuye, we're here."
Yan Jiu, who was meditating in the car, groaned, walked out with a stoop, lifted her robe, and stepped firmly on the ground.It was already cold, Yanjiu wore a padded straight gown, a soft toe on top of his head, and a pair of soap-colored warm boots under his feet. He was dressed like a master of a rich family.
Unfortunately, although he tried his best to imitate Ding Tingxun's and Ding Chengzong's demeanor, he still had a bit of obscenity, and his waist was always bent subconsciously, even when he just straightened up, he bent down again when he walked.Although he has always regarded himself as a descendant of the Lu family among the seven clans and five surnames of the Tang Dynasty, he has a lot of arrogance in his bones, and he doesn't even look at the Ding family in the slightest, but he has been a fake slave for a long time, and many habits have faded away. It is also difficult to correct.He has been a slave for decades, and only when he is alone with his second brother Lu Yisheng can he unknowingly restore the grace and demeanor of the son of a wealthy family.
Yan Jiu looked up at the four big characters "Ding's Bieyuan" on the lintel, curled his mouth in disdain, then stooped into the house, followed behind his buttocks with a tall and servile face, and the little servant followed The old servant swayed into the yard calmly.
When he arrived at the second courtyard, Xiaoqing had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time. When he saw him coming, he hurriedly saluted him: "My servant has seen Lord Jiu."
For Yan Jiu, they were both disgusted and afraid, so the expressions on their faces blended together, making it look very complicated.Yan Jiu smiled arrogantly, flicked the long gown lightly, and said to Gao Da: "Wait here, I'm going to see the eldest lady." After saying that, she walked forward calmly.
"Miss, I don't know how to summon the old slave, what's your order?"
Seeing Ding Yuluo, Yan Jiu asked with a smile on his face.
"Guan Yan is here." When Ding Yuluo saw Yan Jiu, he quickly put down the teacup and tried to calm his expression so as not to show any strangeness.She originally thought that since her eldest brother woke up, she could accompany him back to Ding's mansion, take back the power from Ding Chengye as the eldest son of Ding's family, and expel Yan Jiu and other traitors.But I don't know what the elder brother and the second elder brother discussed in private, and then asked her to attract Yan Jiu, and taught her some words.Although Ding Yuluo didn't know the reason, but Ding Chengzong and Yang Hao were the people she trusted the most, so they followed suit.
She gently placed the teacup on the table, glanced at Yan Jiu, and said coldly: "It's getting colder and colder today, and the other courtyard in Wangxiazhuang is no longer suitable for the young master to continue to take care of himself, my girl I want to take the young master back to live in the mansion."
Yan Jiu was startled, then smiled and said, "Back then, Missy insisted on moving out, but now she wants to move back?"
Ding Yuluo stared at him, and reprimanded: "What? Can't it be done?"
Yan Jiupi smiled and said: "I made it, of course I made it. The old slave still thinks what is the big deal, isn't it just going back to live in the mansion, the eldest lady just wants to order the girl to go back and give orders, and the old slave will prepare the car Ma Lai welcomes, why does the eldest lady call the old slave so pretentiously? Hehe... But then again, even if the eldest lady goes back, she may not be able to live for a few days. Now the Ding family mansion is no longer named Ding. At the end of the new year, you have to hand it over. Going back... I'm afraid it will hurt the scene..."
Ding Yuluo suppressed his anger, sat up straight, and said in a cold voice: "Bold, are you taunting me? Selling the ancestral house is such a big deal, how can Chengye be the master alone. The contract for selling the house, Can't do it right!"
"Haha..." Yan Jiu gave a strange laugh, and all the pretended humility disappeared. He straightened his waist, walked over to sit on Ding Yuluo's seat, and smiled with his beard curled: " Miss, this is in black and white, you can’t just cancel it if you want to cancel it.” He leaned forward slightly, and the smile on his face became a bit cold, and he said in a neutral way: “That’s going to be a lawsuit. "
Seeing Ding Yuluo's restrained anger, Yan Jiu straightened up, leaned back on the chair, and said with a smile: "Besides... this family can't be decided by you, Miss."
Ding Yuluo confronted her tit for tat, and said with a sneer, "I can't be the master, but the young master can be the master."
"Oh?" Yan Jiu smiled with a hint of Pili Yangqiu: "Eldest young master, naturally he can be the master, but... can the young master still be the master now?"
"Why can't I be the master?"
A voice suddenly came out from the back room, although he lacked energy and was slightly weak, he did not lose his majesty. Yan Jiu jumped up as if stung by a wasp.Although he hadn't heard this voice for half a year, he was no stranger to this voice.He thought that he would never hear this person speak again in his life, but when he heard it suddenly, even though he was deeply scheming, his face changed color, and he was inexplicably horrified. Xiao Yuan slowly walked out of the room pushing a wicker chair and wheelbarrow. Ding Chengzong sat up straight with a blanket on his lap, his eyes were bright and he was not angry. As soon as Yan Jiu saw Ding Chengzong, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his face was ashen with shock. He pointed at Ding Chengzong, his eyes protruding, and said "hoho" for a long while, but he couldn't utter a complete word. The young master woke up, and Ding Chengzong woke up.How is this possible?For a moment, Yan Jiu was like falling into a thousand layers of fog. Isn't there no antidote for that poison? Why did he suddenly wake up? Yan Jiu has always been deep and wise, suddenly shocked by this great change, she lost her mind for a while.Just when he was at a loss, Ding Chengzong ordered lightly: "Yuluo, you go out first." "Brother..." Ding Yuluo glanced at him worriedly, and Ding Chengzong looked up to the sky and smiled: "Haha, what are you worried about, since I wake up, no one can harm me anymore." He glanced at Yan Jiu with a sneer, and said with disdain: "This dog slave, at most, is stirring up the flames behind his back, telling that useless second young master to do some bastard things, how dare he do something to me? Get out!" "Okay." Ding Yuluo agreed helplessly, and retreated outside the hall with Xiaoyuan, and closed the door behind him. "Yan Jiu!" Ding Chengzong suddenly shouted, and Yan Jiu subconsciously shivered. He was young and ambitious, lurking in the Ding family. At first, he was forced by the situation to escape the pursuit of the seven clans and five surnames. Later, he wanted to be a Li Daitao, and use the power of the Ding family to restore the glory of his family. From the beginning to the end, he never put Consider yourself a slave.However, even if it was a play, the fake slaves who have been doing it for more than twenty years naturally developed a sense of awe towards the "master". When Ding Chengzong sneered, he naturally developed a sense of fear. "Yan Jiu, you didn't expect me to wake up, did you? That day..., seeing that ugly scene, I was so angry that I fainted. Fortunately, I practiced martial arts since childhood, and my body is strong, and I was taken care of by Yu Luo , ask for medicine for me, God pity me, today, I finally woke up..." He looked at Yan Jiu, his eyes were about to burst into flames: "Unexpectedly, it took only half a year. My Ding family... was tortured into such a state by that unscrupulous brother, you..." He pointed at Yan Jiu and scolded Said: "You flatter the master and confuse me, and feel sorry for the tiger. It's hard to escape." Yan Jiu thought about it in a hurry, but with a look of fear and loss on his face, he waved his hands again and again, and defended fearfully: "Eldest young master, old slave... This old slave is just a servant, although he is very favored by the second young master, In fact, it's just a fake tiger's prestige outside, how can you really be the master of the second young master, I beg the eldest young master to see clearly." As he spoke, he lifted the skirt of his robe, and knelt down with a "boom", kowtowing like garlic. Ding Chengzong let out a breath slowly, and the expression on his face softened a little: "Huh! I forgive you, an old slave, but you can't play any tricks." His cheeks twitched, and he couldn't suppress the hatred in his words: "I asked Yuluo to deceive you today, just to give you a way to repent and rehabilitate. If you obey my orders, I will forgive you You. Otherwise, I will not only drive you out of the house, but I will also send you to the officials to punish you for the crime of deceiving the master as an evil slave!" Yan Jiu knelt on the ground, kowtowing to cover up, thinking secretly in his heart: "It seems that Ding Chengzong thought that he fainted because of extreme anger, so his knowledge is really limited. I don't know what he intends to deceive me here? Did he just wake up today..., that is to say... only a few people around him know that he wakes up?" Thinking of this, a trace of feminine cruelty flashed in Yan Jiu's eyes, but his voice became even more terrified, and he said tremblingly: "Yes, yes, yes, this old slave is stupid. He did a lot of stupid things just to please the second young master. But... But this old slave doesn't know what he can do for the young master. No matter how many wrong things the second young master has done, he is still the young master's brother. Since the young master is awake, why don't he call the second young master to denounce him? But...but summoned the old slave?" "Brother? Hahahaha..." Ding Chengzong let out a series of sad and indignant laughter, and when the laughter stopped, he patted the armrest and scolded angrily: "Old Shacai, do you still pretend to be in front of me? Let it go, let's pretend that you didn't know, but I After being in a coma for more than half a year, Chengye hooked up with that bitch, can you still hide the affair from you?" His eyes widened with anger, and he shouted, "You really don't know the slightest bit?" Yan Jiu suddenly said: "Old slave... I understand now, no wonder the young master sent the young lady out as well. The young master doesn't want to... let the young lady know about this family scandal?" "Hmph!" Ding Chengzong let out a heavy panting sound, obviously suppressing his anger. The treacherous look in Yan Jiu's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked tentatively: "The young master wants to punish them, but he doesn't want to make this scandal public, causing troubles all over the city and ruining Ding's family's face, so... want the old man to punish them?" The slave will make amends and help the young master deal with them, right?" Ding Chengzong sneered and said: "You old fox, you really woke up at one o'clock. That's right! That's exactly what I meant. If you obey my orders, I will not pursue the past. After I punish those adulterers and prostitutes, you He is still the chief steward of the Ding family." "Hehehehe..., the young master is magnanimous, and the old slave thanked the young master first." Yan Jiu understood Ding Chengzong's intentions, and he let go of his heart.He raised his head slowly, with a horrifying smile on his face: "It is true that like father like son, the saying is true. The master is good-faced, and he has been good-faced all his life, but in the end he hurt others and himself, Unexpectedly, young master, you are just like the master..." Ding Chengzong was surprised and angry and said: "You old killer is so unreasonable, what are you talking about?" Yan Jiu smiled sadly, got up and brushed the dust on his robe slowly, shook his head and sighed: "You are mistaken for your cleverness, young master, in fact, as soon as you wake up, you should report to the police immediately. Wife stole Well, it was my uncle who stole it. Although I have lost all face, your life and your family business can be preserved. Hehe, but you still regard yourself as the young master of the Ding family, thinking that you can control the entire Ding family, You actually wanted me to help you deal with the Second Young Master out of a whim..." He smiled and narrowed his eyes, with needle-like sharpness shooting out of his eyes, and said in a slow voice: "Master, didn't Miss tell you? The sky has changed, the Ding family is over, and the Ding family in Bazhou is now betrayed. The people left in the compound are all my confidants. Do you think... as long as you show your identity as the young master, you can say the same thing? Young master, according to this old slave, sometimes, smart people really know how to do it It's stupid, and it's stupid..." Ding Chengzong was startled and angry, and shouted: "Yanjiu, you are so brave, you dare to talk to me like this. You know that Yuluo and the others are right outside the door. I just need to say hello, and you old killer will have to wait for the rest of your life." Spent in a prison..." Yan Jiu sneered disdainfully and said: "They? What can they help? Although the Ding family is already the richest man here, but there are inherent deficiencies here, and if it continues to develop, there will be no greater future. Originally, I just wanted to coerce You are an unconscious cripple, plus the eldest lady is a girl... I wanted to spare you. Anyway, you are finally watched by the old man to grow up. Well, since it is harmless to me, I don't want to make it too difficult for you, but what a pity... I have done my own crimes, I can't live..." He shook his head regretfully, with a sinister smile on his face, and said: "Now that you are awake, I have no choice but to let you sleep forever. As for the insiders like Missy, Xiaoqing, and Xiaoyuan, thanks to you, It’s also impossible to survive.” Ding Chengzong was furious: "The hearts of the people are like iron, and the laws of the government are like furnaces. You slave, how dare you hate the slave and harm the master? Are you not afraid of punishment by the king's law?" Yan Jiu looked up to the sky and laughed, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid. I still want to be a decent human being, and I don't want to become a bandit. How can I not be afraid? But what can Wang Fa do to me? I just need to let the wind out and say Eldest young master, you are going to move to the capital with the second young master, but because you are physically handicapped, so you go on the road first, and that is enough to deceive people. If you want to avoid future troubles forever, and then let out rumors that you were robbed and killed by thieves on the way to Beijing, then There is no more flaws." He smiled slightly and said: "This old slave is doing his best. Otherwise, if Da Miss, Xiao Qing, and Xiao Yuan are three charming and charming girls, if they sell them in any brothel, I'm still not afraid that they will treat them. I'm at a disadvantage, and I have to bring back a sum of money, the eldest daughter of the Ding family's pearls are covered with dust, and the Ding family will be shamed forever." Ding Chengzong pointed his halberd and said angrily: "Yan Jiu, old man, you are so brave!" Yan Jiu said with a smile: "Yes, the old man is indeed very courageous, and he has done a lot of daring things. Do you think that you have been in a coma until now? Wrong, wrong, big mistake, it was the old man's hand." Facilitated. Not only you were killed by the old man, but also your foolish old man who pretended to be smart, was also killed by the old man, do you think the old man is very courageous?" "you you……" If Ding Chengzong's shock and anger just now were just a disguise, now that he heard with his own ears that his father's death and his own illness were all caused by poisoning, no matter how calm Ding Chengzong could hold his breath, his body couldn't help shaking, his face changed. He stared at Yan Jiu angrily, and said in a hissed voice, "You...it's you? You have become the chief manager. In my Ding family, there is no one more noble than you except my surname Ding. That's me Ding." I have never regarded you as an outsider. What are you doing for? Why do you plan to do such a thing? Even if you make the second young master the head of the family, what is the greater benefit to you? You do it like this?" Yan Jiu giggled, and said with a leisurely smile: "Eldest young master, can't you think of the reason? The master couldn't think of it at the beginning. The old slave was soft-hearted and didn't want him to die unwillingly, so he told him. That expression... Hehehe, it's really wonderful. Now the Eldest Young Master is asking again. Eldest Young Master, do you think... Second Young Master must be your real brother?" Ding Chengzong's face was as red as blood, but after hearing these words, the blood was gone and turned pale. At the same time, there was a slight abnormal sound from the inner room.Ding Chengzong was at a loss for a moment, and asked in a trembling voice: "Yan Jiu, you... what did you just say?" Yan Jiu's ears are very strong, and he heard a slight sound faintly coming from the room. This sound immediately aroused his vigilance, his eyes flashed, and he made a decisive decision. Instead of answering Ding Chengzong's words, he suddenly rushed towards him Go, raised his hand and slashed at his neck, his movement was as fast as lightning.
Ding Chengzong never expected Yan Jiu to be able to use martial arts, so he raised his hand to block it in shock, and at the same time shouted: "Come on!" After all, he had been in bed for half a year, his muscles had already slackened, and the strength in his arms hadn't even been exerted to the previous three points. When he stretched out his arms, a strong force struck Ding Chengzong's feet without roots, and the rattan chair fell backwards. At this time, the door curtain was lifted, and a figure jumped out from the inner room, as fast as a ghost, he stretched out his hand, lifted the rattan chair, kicked Yan Jiu obliquely, forced him back, and then jumped up, "Puff puff puff", between the snap of the fingers, the two of them had fought for more than ten times. At this time, the door was kicked open with a bang, and Ding Yuluo, who was dressed in a snow-white dress, was kicked open with a bang. Being knocked down by the steps, Xiaoqing pressed a sword against the back of his heart. The figure that jumped out suddenly and Yan Jiu punched and kicked for more than ten times, their palms collided, and each of them floated away.Yan Jiu saw the man's appearance clearly, and couldn't help but his face changed drastically, and he called out: "Ding Hao?" Yang Hao was also shocked, and lost his voice: "You know martial arts?" Yan Jiu is not only proficient in martial arts, but also very skilled in martial arts. When he saw Yang Hao appearing, Ding Yuluo was also in a strong outfit, and Yan Jiu knew that he had already fallen into other people's schemes.All his life, he has only been cautious. He knew the trick, and just now when he fought, he discovered that Yang Hao's martial arts are very marvelous, especially his skillful moves. , Ding Yuluo with a sword in his chest. Yang Hao yelled, and chased after him, punching him hard in the ribs, at the same time, Ding Yuluo thrust his sword at Yan Jiu's chest.Yan Jiu was unarmed, so he had to sideways to avoid the sword, and blocked Yang Hao's punch, and the two of them fought together again, and it was impossible to escape. For a moment, in the spacious living room, the two were ups and downs, changing offense and defense, fighting closely together, and there was no room for others to intervene.The purpose of the establishment of the Inheritance Hall is to preserve the clan's heirs. Most of the children under the sect have to practice martial arts. In troubled times, sometimes money alone is not enough to protect themselves. Yanjiu ran away from his family when he was young. Although the martial arts he had learned were high-quality, they were incomplete, but he always had the obsession for revenge in his heart. Over the past few decades, he has been practicing hard and raining constantly. Now the power is also extraordinary.But there is one biggest flaw in his martial arts: he has no actual combat experience.In this regard, he is far inferior to his brother Lu Yisheng. In order to conceal his identity, Yan Jiu practiced martial arts quietly in places where no one was around. When he was young, he had the experience of sparring with his brother Lu Yisheng. Afterwards, he only practiced alone. You can get deeper and deeper with hard training, but you don't have any experience in actual combat.In this way, the reaction speed of changing tactics when facing the enemy is greatly inferior, but Yang Hao is much better than him in this regard. Due to the gap in skill between Yanjiu and Yanjiu, the two fought evenly for a while.This is because Yang Hao never expected that he would know martial arts and never wear a sword. Otherwise, if he used the exquisite sword technique taught by Lu Dongbin, Yan Jiu would definitely not be an opponent. But this was enough for Yan Jiu to bear. Ding Yuluo stood aside with his sword in his hand, staring at the tiger, looking eager to try, as if he could give Yan Jiu a sword at any time, Yan Jiu had to pay attention to Ding Yuluo's attack movement.This way he is still Yang Hao's opponent.Ding Yuluo saw that the two were fighting closely, fists and feet were indistinguishable, and with a flicker of his figure, he took a step towards Ding Chengzong. He was thinking that his elder brother would not have the power to protect himself, and worried that Yan Jiu would treat his elder brother with the intention of perishing together. unfavorable.But Yan Jiu had ghosts in his heart, and when he saw her fluttering figure, he immediately raised his vigilance. He and Yang Hao are fighting for life and death, how can they see the tricks when they are distracted, and when he slows down, Yang Hao sees an opportunity, stretches out his arms, turns his palms into fists, and hits him hard. under his ribs.The strength of Yang Hao's fists was at least a few hundred catties at this time. Yan Jiu was hit by his fists, like two hammers hitting his chest. Interrupted, the whole person flew on his back for more than a foot, fell to the ground with a "bang", and then rubbed out along the smooth floor tiles with a "chi", hitting a corner before stopping his body. He turned over abruptly, and was about to jump up as soon as he pressed the blue brick, but just turned over, a mouthful of blood was sprayed out immediately, and the whole body collapsed on the ground, his face was as yellow as gold paper. Yang Hao already hated him very much, if he hadn't asked him for the crucial news, he would not be able to kill him at this time, he really wanted to punch him immediately, so he rushed over and stomped hard On Yanjiu's thigh, Yanjiu let out a scream, and another mouthful of blood spewed out, and one thigh was broken by Yang Haoqi's root. Yang Hao just leaned over, pulled him up by his vest, and lay tall on the outside of the threshold. Seeing the sudden turn of the situation, the Eldest Young Master woke up, Guan Shi Ding also appeared suddenly, and Master Yan Jiu was caught again , bluffing his body like sifting chaff, and wailing: "Eldest young master, spare your life, spare your life, there is an eighty-year-old mother on the younger one, and an unweaned child on the bottom..." "Shut your beak!" Xiaoqing kicked his ass hard, her loud voice stopped abruptly, and she didn't dare to make any more sound.
"Drag him down, watch closely." Ding Chengzong ordered lightly. The four long-term workers in the other courtyard immediately agreed, dragged Yan Jiu who was dying, and retreated.If the four of them had not been loyal to the Ding family, they would have joined others.Seeing the young master waking up again now, he is naturally more determined, he is a trustworthy person, although Yan Jiu has martial arts, now that his ribs are broken and his thigh is broken, it is naturally easy for four strong men to keep an eye on him. Just now when Yanjiu was captured, he knew that there was no way out, no matter how Ding Chengzong and Yang Hao questioned him or even imposed severe punishments, he still gritted his teeth and did not say a word.There is a kind of ruthlessness in this man's bones, Ding Chengzong and Yang Hao have seen a lot of people, just looking at his resolute expression, it is impossible to ask any news from him. After Yanjiu was dragged down, Ding Chengzong looked at Yang Hao and asked in deep thought: "From his mouth, I don't want to get any news. Do you think..." Yang Hao's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "Ding Chengye doesn't have such backbone!" When Ding Yuluo rushed into the room, the two sides had already had a big fight, and just now they interrogated Yan Jiu. Ding Chengzong and Yang Hao only asked "what did you just say?" People already had doubts about Ding Chengye's identity, and upon hearing this, he immediately said worriedly: "Brother, second...brother, if Chengye doesn't live up to expectations, he will be a descendant of our Ding family after all. What do you want to ask? ...You won't torture your younger brother, right?" Ding Chengzong smiled slightly and comforted him: "Yuluo, elder brother knows how to do it, so I will leave everything to me now, don't think too much about it." Yang Hao also said: "Yes, in the future, you don't have to suffer so much. Let us men worry about these things." The two brothers looked at each other and smiled, they could still control this matter.The two brothers wanted to be together, and they didn't want this respectable and lovely little girl to worry so much about it. In the past six months, it took a lot of courage and perseverance to support her family as a daughter.Both of them love and pity this girl in their hearts, and they don't want her to bear any more burdens for the family, and they don't want her to hear so many dirty and dark things. At this time, a figure flashed at the door, and Mu Yu walked in excitedly, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, Ding Chengye will bring you here." Yang Hao hurriedly asked: "Has anyone ever been alarmed?" Mu Yu said with a smile: "No, my subordinates waited for him to enter a male prostitution hall, and then they started to arrest him. He also lied to the old bustard that I was a public servant of Bazhou Prefecture, and as her identity, I dare not publicize it everywhere. On fire." Ding Chengzong raised his eyes slowly, and said calmly, "Where is that beast now?" Mu Yu said: "He gave me a hard blow, and it took a long time to breathe. Seeing that we are so many people, we have always been calm and dare not make trouble. Now that there are more and more people on the street, I am afraid that people will see me. Have someone drive the car to the back door and bring him in from there." "What?" Ding Yuluo was taken aback. When this younger brother behaved recklessly, she wished she could kill him with her own hands. Now that he has woken up, he is no longer allowed to do anything wrong. From now on, the elder brother will be like a father, so he can teach him the way of life, so it may not be impossible for the prodigal son to turn back. So when he heard that he was injured, he felt worried, and hurriedly said: "I'll go and see him." After speaking, he turned away and ran out. Yang Hao looked at her back, a flash of inspiration flashed in his heart, and suddenly said: "Yanjiu, the old fox, seems to be the real mastermind behind the scenes. Judging from the current situation of the two of them, I am afraid that Ding Chengye is also the one in his hand." Chess pieces. He may not know the overall plan." Ding Chengzong said: "That's right, I also have the same feeling. Originally, we thought Yan Jiu was a small fish, and wanted to extract some useful information from him, and then captured the animal, half-forced and half-deceived to force him to vomit. In fact, I didn’t expect that the real big fish was Yan Jiu, even though he hit the right one this time, he was also a shocker, he refused to tell the truth, and we couldn’t help him.” Yang Hao nodded and said: "However... Ding Chengye arrived, I thought of a way..." "Oh?" Ding Chengzong's eyes flickered slightly, and a knowing smile appeared on his face: "That's right, he is firm with us, but he may not refuse to tell the truth with others!" Yang Hao turned around and told Mu Yu: "Xiao Yu, go and imprison Ding Chengye and Yan Jiu together!" After speaking, he whispered to him, Mu Yu understood, and immediately turned around and rushed out. At this moment, the old man strode into the second residence and said loudly: "Young master, someone from the family urged Guan Yan to go back to the mansion, saying that something serious happened." The old man was a little deaf, so His voice was like a bell, almost shaking the dust. Ding Chengzong hurriedly said, "What happened?" The white-haired old man said: "I heard that the master of the Lu family died of illness, and the nephews of the Lu family said that the second young master harmed him. Now he wears a sackcloth filial piety, and insists on beating the door with a mourning stick. If he can't find the second young master, he beats and smashes him again and again." , she said that she was going to burn down the mansion of our Ding family. The young lady was crying to death. The family was in a mess, and the family couldn't find the second young master, so they rushed to report to Guan Yan. According to the young master's order, I didn't Let him in, he is waiting for Xin'er outside the house right now..." Ding Chengzong's expression changed, he took a deep breath, and said slowly, "Take me back!" Yang Hao said in a deep voice, "I'll accompany you." "Okay!" Ding Chengzong shook his hand, raised his two sword eyebrows, and said in a vibrating voice: "Let's go!"
A voice suddenly came out from the back room, although he lacked energy and was slightly weak, he did not lose his majesty. Yan Jiu jumped up as if stung by a wasp.Although he hadn't heard this voice for half a year, he was no stranger to this voice.He thought that he would never hear this person speak again in his life, but when he heard it suddenly, even though he was deeply scheming, his face changed color, and he was inexplicably horrified. Xiao Yuan slowly walked out of the room pushing a wicker chair and wheelbarrow. Ding Chengzong sat up straight with a blanket on his lap, his eyes were bright and he was not angry. As soon as Yan Jiu saw Ding Chengzong, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his face was ashen with shock. He pointed at Ding Chengzong, his eyes protruding, and said "hoho" for a long while, but he couldn't utter a complete word. The young master woke up, and Ding Chengzong woke up.How is this possible?For a moment, Yan Jiu was like falling into a thousand layers of fog. Isn't there no antidote for that poison? Why did he suddenly wake up? Yan Jiu has always been deep and wise, suddenly shocked by this great change, she lost her mind for a while.Just when he was at a loss, Ding Chengzong ordered lightly: "Yuluo, you go out first." "Brother..." Ding Yuluo glanced at him worriedly, and Ding Chengzong looked up to the sky and smiled: "Haha, what are you worried about, since I wake up, no one can harm me anymore." He glanced at Yan Jiu with a sneer, and said with disdain: "This dog slave, at most, is stirring up the flames behind his back, telling that useless second young master to do some bastard things, how dare he do something to me? Get out!" "Okay." Ding Yuluo agreed helplessly, and retreated outside the hall with Xiaoyuan, and closed the door behind him. "Yan Jiu!" Ding Chengzong suddenly shouted, and Yan Jiu subconsciously shivered. He was young and ambitious, lurking in the Ding family. At first, he was forced by the situation to escape the pursuit of the seven clans and five surnames. Later, he wanted to be a Li Daitao, and use the power of the Ding family to restore the glory of his family. From the beginning to the end, he never put Consider yourself a slave.However, even if it was a play, the fake slaves who have been doing it for more than twenty years naturally developed a sense of awe towards the "master". When Ding Chengzong sneered, he naturally developed a sense of fear. "Yan Jiu, you didn't expect me to wake up, did you? That day..., seeing that ugly scene, I was so angry that I fainted. Fortunately, I practiced martial arts since childhood, and my body is strong, and I was taken care of by Yu Luo , ask for medicine for me, God pity me, today, I finally woke up..." He looked at Yan Jiu, his eyes were about to burst into flames: "Unexpectedly, it took only half a year. My Ding family... was tortured into such a state by that unscrupulous brother, you..." He pointed at Yan Jiu and scolded Said: "You flatter the master and confuse me, and feel sorry for the tiger. It's hard to escape." Yan Jiu thought about it in a hurry, but with a look of fear and loss on his face, he waved his hands again and again, and defended fearfully: "Eldest young master, old slave... This old slave is just a servant, although he is very favored by the second young master, In fact, it's just a fake tiger's prestige outside, how can you really be the master of the second young master, I beg the eldest young master to see clearly." As he spoke, he lifted the skirt of his robe, and knelt down with a "boom", kowtowing like garlic. Ding Chengzong let out a breath slowly, and the expression on his face softened a little: "Huh! I forgive you, an old slave, but you can't play any tricks." His cheeks twitched, and he couldn't suppress the hatred in his words: "I asked Yuluo to deceive you today, just to give you a way to repent and rehabilitate. If you obey my orders, I will forgive you You. Otherwise, I will not only drive you out of the house, but I will also send you to the officials to punish you for the crime of deceiving the master as an evil slave!" Yan Jiu knelt on the ground, kowtowing to cover up, thinking secretly in his heart: "It seems that Ding Chengzong thought that he fainted because of extreme anger, so his knowledge is really limited. I don't know what he intends to deceive me here? Did he just wake up today..., that is to say... only a few people around him know that he wakes up?" Thinking of this, a trace of feminine cruelty flashed in Yan Jiu's eyes, but his voice became even more terrified, and he said tremblingly: "Yes, yes, yes, this old slave is stupid. He did a lot of stupid things just to please the second young master. But... But this old slave doesn't know what he can do for the young master. No matter how many wrong things the second young master has done, he is still the young master's brother. Since the young master is awake, why don't he call the second young master to denounce him? But...but summoned the old slave?" "Brother? Hahahaha..." Ding Chengzong let out a series of sad and indignant laughter, and when the laughter stopped, he patted the armrest and scolded angrily: "Old Shacai, do you still pretend to be in front of me? Let it go, let's pretend that you didn't know, but I After being in a coma for more than half a year, Chengye hooked up with that bitch, can you still hide the affair from you?" His eyes widened with anger, and he shouted, "You really don't know the slightest bit?" Yan Jiu suddenly said: "Old slave... I understand now, no wonder the young master sent the young lady out as well. The young master doesn't want to... let the young lady know about this family scandal?" "Hmph!" Ding Chengzong let out a heavy panting sound, obviously suppressing his anger. The treacherous look in Yan Jiu's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked tentatively: "The young master wants to punish them, but he doesn't want to make this scandal public, causing troubles all over the city and ruining Ding's family's face, so... want the old man to punish them?" The slave will make amends and help the young master deal with them, right?" Ding Chengzong sneered and said: "You old fox, you really woke up at one o'clock. That's right! That's exactly what I meant. If you obey my orders, I will not pursue the past. After I punish those adulterers and prostitutes, you He is still the chief steward of the Ding family." "Hehehehe..., the young master is magnanimous, and the old slave thanked the young master first." Yan Jiu understood Ding Chengzong's intentions, and he let go of his heart.He raised his head slowly, with a horrifying smile on his face: "It is true that like father like son, the saying is true. The master is good-faced, and he has been good-faced all his life, but in the end he hurt others and himself, Unexpectedly, young master, you are just like the master..." Ding Chengzong was surprised and angry and said: "You old killer is so unreasonable, what are you talking about?" Yan Jiu smiled sadly, got up and brushed the dust on his robe slowly, shook his head and sighed: "You are mistaken for your cleverness, young master, in fact, as soon as you wake up, you should report to the police immediately. Wife stole Well, it was my uncle who stole it. Although I have lost all face, your life and your family business can be preserved. Hehe, but you still regard yourself as the young master of the Ding family, thinking that you can control the entire Ding family, You actually wanted me to help you deal with the Second Young Master out of a whim..." He smiled and narrowed his eyes, with needle-like sharpness shooting out of his eyes, and said in a slow voice: "Master, didn't Miss tell you? The sky has changed, the Ding family is over, and the Ding family in Bazhou is now betrayed. The people left in the compound are all my confidants. Do you think... as long as you show your identity as the young master, you can say the same thing? Young master, according to this old slave, sometimes, smart people really know how to do it It's stupid, and it's stupid..." Ding Chengzong was startled and angry, and shouted: "Yanjiu, you are so brave, you dare to talk to me like this. You know that Yuluo and the others are right outside the door. I just need to say hello, and you old killer will have to wait for the rest of your life." Spent in a prison..." Yan Jiu sneered disdainfully and said: "They? What can they help? Although the Ding family is already the richest man here, but there are inherent deficiencies here, and if it continues to develop, there will be no greater future. Originally, I just wanted to coerce You are an unconscious cripple, plus the eldest lady is a girl... I wanted to spare you. Anyway, you are finally watched by the old man to grow up. Well, since it is harmless to me, I don't want to make it too difficult for you, but what a pity... I have done my own crimes, I can't live..." He shook his head regretfully, with a sinister smile on his face, and said: "Now that you are awake, I have no choice but to let you sleep forever. As for the insiders like Missy, Xiaoqing, and Xiaoyuan, thanks to you, It’s also impossible to survive.” Ding Chengzong was furious: "The hearts of the people are like iron, and the laws of the government are like furnaces. You slave, how dare you hate the slave and harm the master? Are you not afraid of punishment by the king's law?" Yan Jiu looked up to the sky and laughed, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid. I still want to be a decent human being, and I don't want to become a bandit. How can I not be afraid? But what can Wang Fa do to me? I just need to let the wind out and say Eldest young master, you are going to move to the capital with the second young master, but because you are physically handicapped, so you go on the road first, and that is enough to deceive people. If you want to avoid future troubles forever, and then let out rumors that you were robbed and killed by thieves on the way to Beijing, then There is no more flaws." He smiled slightly and said: "This old slave is doing his best. Otherwise, if Da Miss, Xiao Qing, and Xiao Yuan are three charming and charming girls, if they sell them in any brothel, I'm still not afraid that they will treat them. I'm at a disadvantage, and I have to bring back a sum of money, the eldest daughter of the Ding family's pearls are covered with dust, and the Ding family will be shamed forever." Ding Chengzong pointed his halberd and said angrily: "Yan Jiu, old man, you are so brave!" Yan Jiu said with a smile: "Yes, the old man is indeed very courageous, and he has done a lot of daring things. Do you think that you have been in a coma until now? Wrong, wrong, big mistake, it was the old man's hand." Facilitated. Not only you were killed by the old man, but also your foolish old man who pretended to be smart, was also killed by the old man, do you think the old man is very courageous?" "you you……" If Ding Chengzong's shock and anger just now were just a disguise, now that he heard with his own ears that his father's death and his own illness were all caused by poisoning, no matter how calm Ding Chengzong could hold his breath, his body couldn't help shaking, his face changed. He stared at Yan Jiu angrily, and said in a hissed voice, "You...it's you? You have become the chief manager. In my Ding family, there is no one more noble than you except my surname Ding. That's me Ding." I have never regarded you as an outsider. What are you doing for? Why do you plan to do such a thing? Even if you make the second young master the head of the family, what is the greater benefit to you? You do it like this?" Yan Jiu giggled, and said with a leisurely smile: "Eldest young master, can't you think of the reason? The master couldn't think of it at the beginning. The old slave was soft-hearted and didn't want him to die unwillingly, so he told him. That expression... Hehehe, it's really wonderful. Now the Eldest Young Master is asking again. Eldest Young Master, do you think... Second Young Master must be your real brother?" Ding Chengzong's face was as red as blood, but after hearing these words, the blood was gone and turned pale. At the same time, there was a slight abnormal sound from the inner room.Ding Chengzong was at a loss for a moment, and asked in a trembling voice: "Yan Jiu, you... what did you just say?" Yan Jiu's ears are very strong, and he heard a slight sound faintly coming from the room. This sound immediately aroused his vigilance, his eyes flashed, and he made a decisive decision. Instead of answering Ding Chengzong's words, he suddenly rushed towards him Go, raised his hand and slashed at his neck, his movement was as fast as lightning.
Ding Chengzong never expected Yan Jiu to be able to use martial arts, so he raised his hand to block it in shock, and at the same time shouted: "Come on!" After all, he had been in bed for half a year, his muscles had already slackened, and the strength in his arms hadn't even been exerted to the previous three points. When he stretched out his arms, a strong force struck Ding Chengzong's feet without roots, and the rattan chair fell backwards. At this time, the door curtain was lifted, and a figure jumped out from the inner room, as fast as a ghost, he stretched out his hand, lifted the rattan chair, kicked Yan Jiu obliquely, forced him back, and then jumped up, "Puff puff puff", between the snap of the fingers, the two of them had fought for more than ten times. At this time, the door was kicked open with a bang, and Ding Yuluo, who was dressed in a snow-white dress, was kicked open with a bang. Being knocked down by the steps, Xiaoqing pressed a sword against the back of his heart. The figure that jumped out suddenly and Yan Jiu punched and kicked for more than ten times, their palms collided, and each of them floated away.Yan Jiu saw the man's appearance clearly, and couldn't help but his face changed drastically, and he called out: "Ding Hao?" Yang Hao was also shocked, and lost his voice: "You know martial arts?" Yan Jiu is not only proficient in martial arts, but also very skilled in martial arts. When he saw Yang Hao appearing, Ding Yuluo was also in a strong outfit, and Yan Jiu knew that he had already fallen into other people's schemes.All his life, he has only been cautious. He knew the trick, and just now when he fought, he discovered that Yang Hao's martial arts are very marvelous, especially his skillful moves. , Ding Yuluo with a sword in his chest. Yang Hao yelled, and chased after him, punching him hard in the ribs, at the same time, Ding Yuluo thrust his sword at Yan Jiu's chest.Yan Jiu was unarmed, so he had to sideways to avoid the sword, and blocked Yang Hao's punch, and the two of them fought together again, and it was impossible to escape. For a moment, in the spacious living room, the two were ups and downs, changing offense and defense, fighting closely together, and there was no room for others to intervene.The purpose of the establishment of the Inheritance Hall is to preserve the clan's heirs. Most of the children under the sect have to practice martial arts. In troubled times, sometimes money alone is not enough to protect themselves. Yanjiu ran away from his family when he was young. Although the martial arts he had learned were high-quality, they were incomplete, but he always had the obsession for revenge in his heart. Over the past few decades, he has been practicing hard and raining constantly. Now the power is also extraordinary.But there is one biggest flaw in his martial arts: he has no actual combat experience.In this regard, he is far inferior to his brother Lu Yisheng. In order to conceal his identity, Yan Jiu practiced martial arts quietly in places where no one was around. When he was young, he had the experience of sparring with his brother Lu Yisheng. Afterwards, he only practiced alone. You can get deeper and deeper with hard training, but you don't have any experience in actual combat.In this way, the reaction speed of changing tactics when facing the enemy is greatly inferior, but Yang Hao is much better than him in this regard. Due to the gap in skill between Yanjiu and Yanjiu, the two fought evenly for a while.This is because Yang Hao never expected that he would know martial arts and never wear a sword. Otherwise, if he used the exquisite sword technique taught by Lu Dongbin, Yan Jiu would definitely not be an opponent. But this was enough for Yan Jiu to bear. Ding Yuluo stood aside with his sword in his hand, staring at the tiger, looking eager to try, as if he could give Yan Jiu a sword at any time, Yan Jiu had to pay attention to Ding Yuluo's attack movement.This way he is still Yang Hao's opponent.Ding Yuluo saw that the two were fighting closely, fists and feet were indistinguishable, and with a flicker of his figure, he took a step towards Ding Chengzong. He was thinking that his elder brother would not have the power to protect himself, and worried that Yan Jiu would treat his elder brother with the intention of perishing together. unfavorable.But Yan Jiu had ghosts in his heart, and when he saw her fluttering figure, he immediately raised his vigilance. He and Yang Hao are fighting for life and death, how can they see the tricks when they are distracted, and when he slows down, Yang Hao sees an opportunity, stretches out his arms, turns his palms into fists, and hits him hard. under his ribs.The strength of Yang Hao's fists was at least a few hundred catties at this time. Yan Jiu was hit by his fists, like two hammers hitting his chest. Interrupted, the whole person flew on his back for more than a foot, fell to the ground with a "bang", and then rubbed out along the smooth floor tiles with a "chi", hitting a corner before stopping his body. He turned over abruptly, and was about to jump up as soon as he pressed the blue brick, but just turned over, a mouthful of blood was sprayed out immediately, and the whole body collapsed on the ground, his face was as yellow as gold paper. Yang Hao already hated him very much, if he hadn't asked him for the crucial news, he would not be able to kill him at this time, he really wanted to punch him immediately, so he rushed over and stomped hard On Yanjiu's thigh, Yanjiu let out a scream, and another mouthful of blood spewed out, and one thigh was broken by Yang Haoqi's root. Yang Hao just leaned over, pulled him up by his vest, and lay tall on the outside of the threshold. Seeing the sudden turn of the situation, the Eldest Young Master woke up, Guan Shi Ding also appeared suddenly, and Master Yan Jiu was caught again , bluffing his body like sifting chaff, and wailing: "Eldest young master, spare your life, spare your life, there is an eighty-year-old mother on the younger one, and an unweaned child on the bottom..." "Shut your beak!" Xiaoqing kicked his ass hard, her loud voice stopped abruptly, and she didn't dare to make any more sound.
"Drag him down, watch closely." Ding Chengzong ordered lightly. The four long-term workers in the other courtyard immediately agreed, dragged Yan Jiu who was dying, and retreated.If the four of them had not been loyal to the Ding family, they would have joined others.Seeing the young master waking up again now, he is naturally more determined, he is a trustworthy person, although Yan Jiu has martial arts, now that his ribs are broken and his thigh is broken, it is naturally easy for four strong men to keep an eye on him. Just now when Yanjiu was captured, he knew that there was no way out, no matter how Ding Chengzong and Yang Hao questioned him or even imposed severe punishments, he still gritted his teeth and did not say a word.There is a kind of ruthlessness in this man's bones, Ding Chengzong and Yang Hao have seen a lot of people, just looking at his resolute expression, it is impossible to ask any news from him. After Yanjiu was dragged down, Ding Chengzong looked at Yang Hao and asked in deep thought: "From his mouth, I don't want to get any news. Do you think..." Yang Hao's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "Ding Chengye doesn't have such backbone!" When Ding Yuluo rushed into the room, the two sides had already had a big fight, and just now they interrogated Yan Jiu. Ding Chengzong and Yang Hao only asked "what did you just say?" People already had doubts about Ding Chengye's identity, and upon hearing this, he immediately said worriedly: "Brother, second...brother, if Chengye doesn't live up to expectations, he will be a descendant of our Ding family after all. What do you want to ask? ...You won't torture your younger brother, right?" Ding Chengzong smiled slightly and comforted him: "Yuluo, elder brother knows how to do it, so I will leave everything to me now, don't think too much about it." Yang Hao also said: "Yes, in the future, you don't have to suffer so much. Let us men worry about these things." The two brothers looked at each other and smiled, they could still control this matter.The two brothers wanted to be together, and they didn't want this respectable and lovely little girl to worry so much about it. In the past six months, it took a lot of courage and perseverance to support her family as a daughter.Both of them love and pity this girl in their hearts, and they don't want her to bear any more burdens for the family, and they don't want her to hear so many dirty and dark things. At this time, a figure flashed at the door, and Mu Yu walked in excitedly, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, Ding Chengye will bring you here." Yang Hao hurriedly asked: "Has anyone ever been alarmed?" Mu Yu said with a smile: "No, my subordinates waited for him to enter a male prostitution hall, and then they started to arrest him. He also lied to the old bustard that I was a public servant of Bazhou Prefecture, and as her identity, I dare not publicize it everywhere. On fire." Ding Chengzong raised his eyes slowly, and said calmly, "Where is that beast now?" Mu Yu said: "He gave me a hard blow, and it took a long time to breathe. Seeing that we are so many people, we have always been calm and dare not make trouble. Now that there are more and more people on the street, I am afraid that people will see me. Have someone drive the car to the back door and bring him in from there." "What?" Ding Yuluo was taken aback. When this younger brother behaved recklessly, she wished she could kill him with her own hands. Now that he has woken up, he is no longer allowed to do anything wrong. From now on, the elder brother will be like a father, so he can teach him the way of life, so it may not be impossible for the prodigal son to turn back. So when he heard that he was injured, he felt worried, and hurriedly said: "I'll go and see him." After speaking, he turned away and ran out. Yang Hao looked at her back, a flash of inspiration flashed in his heart, and suddenly said: "Yanjiu, the old fox, seems to be the real mastermind behind the scenes. Judging from the current situation of the two of them, I am afraid that Ding Chengye is also the one in his hand." Chess pieces. He may not know the overall plan." Ding Chengzong said: "That's right, I also have the same feeling. Originally, we thought Yan Jiu was a small fish, and wanted to extract some useful information from him, and then captured the animal, half-forced and half-deceived to force him to vomit. In fact, I didn’t expect that the real big fish was Yan Jiu, even though he hit the right one this time, he was also a shocker, he refused to tell the truth, and we couldn’t help him.” Yang Hao nodded and said: "However... Ding Chengye arrived, I thought of a way..." "Oh?" Ding Chengzong's eyes flickered slightly, and a knowing smile appeared on his face: "That's right, he is firm with us, but he may not refuse to tell the truth with others!" Yang Hao turned around and told Mu Yu: "Xiao Yu, go and imprison Ding Chengye and Yan Jiu together!" After speaking, he whispered to him, Mu Yu understood, and immediately turned around and rushed out. At this moment, the old man strode into the second residence and said loudly: "Young master, someone from the family urged Guan Yan to go back to the mansion, saying that something serious happened." The old man was a little deaf, so His voice was like a bell, almost shaking the dust. Ding Chengzong hurriedly said, "What happened?" The white-haired old man said: "I heard that the master of the Lu family died of illness, and the nephews of the Lu family said that the second young master harmed him. Now he wears a sackcloth filial piety, and insists on beating the door with a mourning stick. If he can't find the second young master, he beats and smashes him again and again." , she said that she was going to burn down the mansion of our Ding family. The young lady was crying to death. The family was in a mess, and the family couldn't find the second young master, so they rushed to report to Guan Yan. According to the young master's order, I didn't Let him in, he is waiting for Xin'er outside the house right now..." Ding Chengzong's expression changed, he took a deep breath, and said slowly, "Take me back!" Yang Hao said in a deep voice, "I'll accompany you." "Okay!" Ding Chengzong shook his hand, raised his two sword eyebrows, and said in a vibrating voice: "Let's go!"
