Zhan Changsheng was just a minor official in a branch of the Ministry of Agriculture, and he was not invited here specifically today.
This was because the emperor had previously handed over the matter of wild boars endangering the people to the Ministry of Agriculture for investigation, and now they were also called to the celebration banquet after hunting the tiger.
Guo Chongliang didn't even know who Zhan Changsheng was.
Wang Jianxin had met him when Zhan Changsheng and his group went to Fengle County before.
But Wang Jianxin did not feel any guilt about intercepting him last time.
This is the norm in official circles.
Wang Jianxin had the right time, place and people, so it was natural for Zhan Changsheng to lose to him.
He didn't expect that Zhan Changsheng would still be brooding over it and even choose this time to attack him, so he was caught off guard and was beaten black and blue.
Wang Jianxin came in for the banquet, but his servants were all outside and were not brought in. For a while, no one came to protect him.
Zhan Changsheng, under the influence of alcohol, pinned Wang Jianxin down and punched him several times before anyone else could react.
Guo Chongliang was so angry that his head was about to smoke, and he shouted: "Someone come, quickly pull this lunatic away!"
What are you doing in front of Lord Qin Songyin?
Although the drunken behavior had nothing to do with him, it happened at the celebration party he organized after all.
Lord Qin may not remember who beat someone and who was beaten today. When he mentions it in the future, he will definitely say that it happened at the celebration banquet hosted by Guo Chongliang.
When Guo Chongliang thought of this, he was so angry that he trembled all over. If he had known this would happen, Lord Qin would have simply not come today.
It’s better to have no impression than to leave such a bad impression the first time!
Guo Chongliang directed all his anger at Zhan Changsheng.
After seeing his men pull him away, he immediately said, "Lock him up first. We'll interrogate him later to find out why he openly assaulted an official in such a situation. Is there someone behind this?"
On the Sino-Agricultural side, the Secretary was not here today, but the Junior Secretary Ruan Wenbin was here.
He originally came here today just to have a drink and eat and join in the fun, but who knew that something like this would happen.
When he saw Zhan Changsheng being arrested by the police, he wanted to say a few words to help him cover up his mistake by claiming that he was drunk and had committed immoral acts.
It’s not that he has a very good relationship with Zhan Changsheng, but after all, everyone came to the banquet together to represent the face of the Ministry of Agriculture.
But after hearing what Guo Chongliang said, Ruan Wenbin immediately retracted the steps he had already taken.
Guo Chongliang was obviously really angry when he said this, and Zhan Changsheng is bound to suffer a lot this time.
There is no need for him to get involved in this mess again.
However, as the highest-ranking person in the Ministry of Agriculture present today, it would seem inappropriate for him to remain silent.
Thinking of this, Ruan Wenbin simply took advantage of the time when others were watching the fun and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp. Then he pretended to be drunk and lay on the table pretending to be drunk.
Zhan Changsheng usually had a good reputation in the Ministry of Agriculture, but since even Ruan Wenbin didn't step forward, the words of others had even less weight. They simply became cowards and watched Zhan Changsheng being taken away by the officers from the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen.
After this incident, the lively and harmonious atmosphere in the hall was wiped out, leaving only endless awkwardness.
Wang Jianxin didn't expect that he would lose face like this in front of so many people who might be his superiors and colleagues in the future when he first appeared in the circle of Beijing.
Zhan Changsheng didn't hold back at all just now, and every punch he threw hit the opponent's flesh.
When Wang Jianxin was helped up, not only was his face badly beaten, but the collar of his clothes was also torn and hung down in a mess.
This is really outrageous and there is no trace of the behavior of an official appointed by the imperial court.
Even Qin Songyin couldn't bear to watch it anymore and frowned, saying, "Hurry up and send it off..."
Mu Zheng quickly whispered behind him, "Wang Jianxin."
Qin Songyin continued calmly, "...send Master Wang to the clinic!"
The Qin family's servant went out to call in the people brought by Wang Jianxin and sent him to the clinic.
Guo Chongliang hurried over and said, "Sir Qin, how could you have imagined that something like this would happen? Your humble servant..."
Qin Songyin waved his hand and said, "This is an emergency, and it's not Lord Guo's fault."
Hearing this, Guo Chongliang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Qin, for your understanding."
Although he said that, Guo Chongliang felt bitter in his heart. Qin Songyin spoke magnanimously, but who knows whether he minded in his heart!
Qin Songyin hadn't originally planned to stay until the end of the party. He just wanted to say a few words, have a couple of drinks and then leave.
Logically speaking, as a tiger-fighting hero, Mu Zheng is the protagonist of this celebration banquet and should stay until the end.
But when this happened, he decided to leave with Qin Songyin and take Boss Ye with him.
After leaving Shuntian Prefecture, Qin Songyin got into the car first. Mu Zheng said to Ye Laoda: "If Qingtian is okay, remember to say hello to me when you are ready to go home."
Upon hearing this, Boss Ye hurriedly said, "Master Mu, we are familiar with the way back and forth, so there is no need for you to send us off."
"Go, who wants to see you off?" Mu Zheng laughed when he heard this. "You're a tiger-slaying hero. The court will commend and reward you. If a bunch of people go to your house with drums and gongs, they have to choose a day when you're home, right?"
Boss Ye finally understood what was going on and nodded repeatedly to show that he understood.
Because a fight broke out for no apparent reason during the meal just now, and no one knew what the cause was, Mu Zheng arranged for two people to send Boss Ye back to the clinic for safety reasons.
