Chapter 157 Liu Xing: The Second Wave of Troublemaking
When the betrothal procession was two-thirds of the way there, it was blocked by a group of burly men in front of it and had to stop.
The cheerful drums and music gradually died down, but the people on both sides started to gossip. They desperately crowded together five meters away from the center of the accident, praying in their hearts that the noise would get bigger and more exciting!
There was a leader at the front of the betrothal procession, who was one of the Qi family's stewards and was in charge of this betrothal work. Seeing a row of strong men, he was not afraid, and greeted them with a bright smile on his face.
"Where are you from, my dear men? Today is the day when my young master proposes marriage. I hope you will help me."
As he spoke, he took out a red wedding bag from the maid's basket nearby and gave it to the leading strong man.
The sturdy man in the lead accepted it without hesitation, but did not say a word or leave, still standing in the middle of the road with a dignified manner.
At this moment, a thin figure jumped out from behind the burly man. The steward recognized it as Liu Xing's servant Monkey as soon as he saw him. He felt a pang in his heart and thought that things would not end well today. He immediately turned around and winked at a servant.
The servant was also smart. He nodded and immediately squeezed out of the team, probably to go back and report the news.
The monkey put his hands behind his back and swaggered to the steward. He looked at the endless betrothal gifts with contempt. He couldn't help but feel jealous in his eyes, and his words were naturally full of sarcasm.
"Oh, I didn't know that today was the day when the eldest young master of the Qi family would send his betrothal gifts. No one notified us. This is unfortunate. My young master has reserved the area in front. You guys should take a detour."
He was obviously looking for trouble, there was no such thing as a land lease. However, the Qi family's steward still greeted him with a smile, showing no dissatisfaction at all.
"It is indeed my fault for not notifying you. I will accept the punishment when I get back. According to the rules, the betrothal team cannot change the route at will, otherwise it will have a bad connotation. Could you please let us pass through, Master Liu? I will reward you handsomely afterwards."
The steward quickly took out a red wedding bag and stuffed it into the monkey's hand. The monkey had heard that there were one hundred taels of silver in the bag, so he quickly hid the red wedding bag in his sleeve pocket.
But this guy took the money but still refused to give way and shamelessly blocked the middle of the road.
"Ah! It's not that I don't want to help, it's just that my young master has repeatedly instructed that no one is allowed to pass through here today to disturb him, otherwise my life will be in danger. Don't make it difficult for me, it's just a matter that can be solved by taking a detour."
The butler almost couldn't keep the smile on his face. He was indignant in his heart, but today was also a happy day, so it was not appropriate to have a conflict, so as not to disrupt the joy. He could only keep reminding himself in his heart, calming down his anger and waiting for the arrival of reinforcements.
The common people on the side accused the servants of Liu's house of being shameless, but they did not dare to speak out. Everyone had seen the shabby nature of Liu Xing and Monkey, the master and servant, and if they wanted to stay in Qingcheng, it was best not to provoke them.
Fortunately, reinforcements arrived in time.
"Give way! Give way, everyone!"
Shouts came from behind, and a team of people in military uniforms cut a path through the crowd and rushed straight over. The leader, riding on a horse and wearing an official uniform, was none other than Mu She.
When he got closer, Mushe jumped off his horse and walked forward with a frown.
"What's going on? Why are you blocking the road? Don't you see that it affects the normal life of the people?"
The manager heaved a sigh of relief and bowed to the shepherd's house while briefly explaining the whole story.
Mu She glared at the monkey: "This is the first time I've heard of someone being able to lease this piece of land. How did your young master lease it?"
The monkey shrank his head in fear, glanced to the corner with his little eyes, swallowed nervously, and answered with gritted teeth.
"My young master said that he owns the land in front, and no one is allowed to pass through!"
"presumptuous!"
The monkey's legs went weak and he almost fell down when the shepherd shouted. Fortunately, the strong man behind him stretched out two fingers and grabbed his collar in time to lift him up, so he didn't make a fool of himself on the spot.
"This land belongs to the emperor. Every brick and tile here belongs to the emperor and the court. How can he monopolize it? Unless... your young master is planning to rebel?"
"Creating, rebellion? No, no, no, no..."
This time, Monkey was so frightened that his face turned pale. Rebellion means the execution of all nine generations of the clan. Who can bear this crime? His eyes were filled with regret. He knew that Liu Xing's idea was a bad one. If he had known that he would be charged with rebellion, he would not have obeyed even if he was beaten to death.
Guessing that the other party had been frightened and dared not cause trouble again, Mu She immediately gave the order.
"Since you don't want to rebel, why don't you take your people and leave immediately!"
"Yes, yes, yes, I will step back right away!"
The monkey immediately nodded and bowed, then turned around and commanded the row of strong men behind him to retreat.
He never expected that a row of strong men did not move at all and did not listen to his orders at all, which made the monkey feel humiliated. His face turned red but he could do nothing about it.
The sturdy man glanced at him with disdain, then looked towards the shepherd's shed, not at all afraid of the official uniform he was wearing.
"Sir, don't try to intimidate us with your authority. We ordinary people can't stand your intimidation. Our young master asked that he borrow the front area for a while. He can pass through it when he finishes his work. I don't think there is a clear prohibition in the law that we can't borrow the venue for a while, right?"
The steward patiently asked, "Excuse me, how long do you want to borrow it, Master Liu?"
The sturdy man raised his lips and said, "It's hard to say. Maybe half an hour, maybe most of the day. The passage will be opened in the afternoon."
The manager did not try to fight for it anymore. After all, these were just means to prevent them from proposing a marriage proposal, and the others were just excuses.
Mu She clenched his fists, and a feeling of irritation surged in his heart. He had just entered the officialdom, so he had to be careful and cautious in doing things. If he offended a villain, he would be easily targeted. If he wanted to benefit the people, he had to maintain his status and position first, so that he could show his strength.
But now he was restricted by his own identity. The strong man was right. The crime of rebellion could not be easily pinned on others. He could only scare the timid monkeys. If he really met a tough guy, he would be powerless.
During the stalemate, another group of people squeezed out from the alley at the side, led by Cao Jun and Zheng Huaian.
The two men heard the whole story from the manager. Cao Jun immediately rolled up his sleeves and prepared to rush in for a fight with his own thugs, but was stopped by Zheng Huaian.
Cao Jun said angrily: "Huai'an, let me go, they did this on purpose, I'm going to teach them a lesson!"
Zheng Huaian leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Are you crazy? If you really rush up to fight, how will Mu She feel? By then, the other party will have to make a fuss about it and force Mu She to convict you personally. What will you let Mu She do then?"
As if enlightened, Cao Jun came to his senses from his anger and looked at Mu She apologetically. Mu She shook her head helplessly at him.
As time went by, the steward became more and more anxious. It would be unlucky to propose marriage after the auspicious time, and he would be blamed even if it was not his fault.
Just when he was at a loss, two figures suddenly fell from the sky and landed in front of the burly man.
One of the figures kicked out as soon as he landed on the ground. The sturdy man reacted quickly and raised his hand to block, but was still kicked back rapidly.
He put down his sore and painful arm and looked at the person who came in disbelief.
"General!"
