Chapter 411 Veteran of Six Dynasties
"Qiqi, isn't this a bad thing to do?"
Inside the pavilion.
Wu Qiqi's mother, Madam Yang, asked with a worried expression.
Because marrying Wu Shun to Chen was done with her consent.
"Mother, ask my eldest sister if she's willing to marry him."
Upon hearing this, Madam Yang looked at the obedient Wu Shun.
Wu Shun kept his head down and didn't dare to utter a sound.
"It was arranged by our parents and the matchmaker," Madam Yang continued.
"That's money owed by my eldest and second brothers. Why should my sister have to spend her whole life to pay it back? That's not fair to her!" Wu Qiqi argued.
this……
well.
Yang turned into a sigh.
She never wanted to marry her daughter to a playboy.
However, she was Samurai Go's second wife, having married him at the age of forty-four.
Not only is she old, but all three of her children are daughters.
Therefore, she felt quite ashamed in the Wu family.
"Mom, don't worry."
Wu Qiqi peeled an egg: "Wei Shuyu is the most experienced at dealing with good-for-nothings like my eldest and second brothers."
"Second sister, I want it, I want it..."
Wu Xiaoxiao stared at the egg in Wu Qiqi's hand. Seeing that it was almost peeled, she reached out and shouted.
*Smack*
Wu Qiqi slapped the little girl's hand away.
"Peel it yourself if you want."
"This is for Wei Shuyu!"
Wow wow wow...
A commotion immediately erupted from the Wu family mansion.
at the same time.
Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang were hung from the roof beam.
Wei Shuyu sat below, calmly sipping his tea.
"Wei Shuyu, if you have the guts, put us down."
"That's right, you spineless piece of trash, do you dare to let us down and fight it out?"
The two continued shouting at each other.
"Yue Feng, beat them so they can't speak."
Wei Shuyu put down his teacup; he still couldn't get used to the tea from the Tang Dynasty.
Bang.
Just then, a group of people burst in.
Yue Feng and the others immediately stood up and protected Wei Shuyu.
"Yuan Qing, Yuan Shuang."
"I heard you guys got beaten up, do you need my help? Haha..."
A young man entered, fanning himself with a folding fan and a smug smile on his face.
Wei Shuyu glanced at it.
That's right, folding fans are even being sold in Jingzhou.
"Zhongfang, please save us!"
Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang showed joy on their faces.
"No rush..."
Chen Zhongfang's gaze shifted and landed on Wei Shuyu: "You must be Wei Zheng's son, Wei Shuyu?"
"Um."
Wei Shuyu nodded.
"I heard you want to marry Qiqi?"
A slight smile curved Chen Zhongfang's lips.
Pavilion.
"Second sister, second sister."
Wu Xiaoxiao stopped crying and tugged at Wu Qiqi's sleeve: "Second brother-in-law's rival is here, aren't you going to help?"
*Smack*
Wu Qiqi raised her hand and smacked him on the head.
"What do you know?"
"Second sister, this is called a rare commodity, and things are valued because they are scarce."
"Someone will only cherish something if someone else is fighting over it, don't you understand?"
ah?
Wu Xiaoxiao seemed to understand, but not quite.
He bit his finger, his eyes fixed on the egg in Wu Qiqi's hand.
Taking advantage of Wu Qiqi's distraction, he snatched the egg away.
After licking it twice, he made a face at Wu Qiqi.
"..."
Have they all learned to use feints and diversions?
Forget it, I don't have time to deal with you right now.
Wu Qiqi slipped behind a pillar and secretly observed everything.
"May I ask who this young master is?"
Wei Shuyu cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.
"Listen carefully..."
Chen Zhongfang raised his head and began to introduce himself.
"My grandfather was the Duke of Jiang, Chen Shuda."
“My father was Chen Yuande, the prefect of Shunzhou.”
“My eldest uncle was Chen Zhengde, the prefect of Fenzhou.”
"My third uncle is Chen Xiande, a physician in the Ministry of Water Resources."
"My fourth uncle..."
Wei Shuyu couldn't stand it anymore and quickly interrupted, "Stop, stop, stop! What are you trying to say?"
“I want to tell you that your Wei family’s background is not good enough for Qiqi!” Chen Zhongfang raised his head.
"etc……"
Wei Shuyu asked in confusion, "Weren't you going to marry Wu Shun? Why are you going to marry Qi Qi now?"
"Can't I marry two?"
"..."
Wei Shuyu was stunned.
I almost forgot this is ancient times.
"How about it? Scared now?"
Chen Zhongfang revealed a disdainful smile: "If you know what's good for you, you'll obediently break off the engagement, otherwise I'll make sure you never return to Chang'an!"
"This gentleman..."
Wei Shuyu stepped forward: "Your relatives are indeed formidable; my Wei family may not be as capable."
"but……"
*Smack*
Wei Shuyu immediately slapped him.
"Your dad is awesome, your uncles are awesome, what's it to you?"
"How dare you, someone without any official rank or title, point fingers at me?"
Wow.
Everyone was shocked.
The guards that Chen Zhongfang brought immediately stepped forward to protect him from behind.
"You...you dare to hit me?"
Chen Zhongfang covered his cheek, his face filled with disbelief.
"So what if I hit you?"
Wei Shuyu shouted sternly, "If you have the guts, call your grandfather, father, uncles and aunts all here."
"I still dare to hit you in front of them!"
"You bastard."
Chen Zhongfang stomped his foot in anger, then waved his hand: "Go! Kill Wei Shuyu!"
The guards all drew their blades and pointed them at Wei Shuyu.
Wei Shuyu merely glanced at it casually.
"Not only did they force their way into the Duke of Ying's mansion, they even dared to draw their knives inside..."
Wei Shuyu stepped forward without fear: "Do you know what crime you have committed?"
I don't care what crime you committed!
Chen Zhongfang roared ferociously, "You dare to act so arrogantly in Jingzhou! Even if the Heavenly King himself came, he couldn't save you!"
"Go! Kill Wei Shuyu!"
Splash!
No sooner had he finished speaking than a large group of men surged through the door.
They were all fierce-looking men, with faces full of menacing features.
They turned the tables and surrounded Chen Zhongfang's men, brandishing their knives.
"You...you are bandits?"
Chen Zhongfang's pupils contracted sharply, and he immediately shouted, "What are you all trying to do by gathering in Jingzhou? Are you planning a rebellion?"
"I dare not accept the title of rebel..."
Wei Shuyu stepped forward with a smile: "You have neither an official position nor a noble title. At most, beating you up would just be considered a fight."
"Besides, since you led people to forcibly break into the Duke of Ying's mansion, no one would dare say anything even if we killed you..."
Wei Shuyu waved his hand: "Just don't kill him!"
As soon as Wei Shuyu finished speaking, the bandits stepped forward with sinister smiles.
Ping-ping-pong-pong.
Before long, the men Chen Zhongfang brought were beaten to the ground.
"You...you guys, don't come any closer!"
Chen Zhongfang retreated step by step, like a lamb to the slaughter.
He tripped on the steps and fell to the ground with a thud.
"Weren't you going to kill me?"
Wei Shuyu squatted down and patted the other person's cheek: "Why did you chicken out so quickly?"
Wei Shuyu's words made Chen Zhongfang blush with embarrassment.
He mustered his courage and rebuked, "Don't be arrogant. My grandfather is in Jingzhou. You dare to touch me and see what happens."
"Chen Shuda is in Jingzhou?" Wei Shuyu frowned.
Chen Shuda's identity is extraordinary.
He was not only the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, but also the son of Emperor Xuan of the Southern Chen Dynasty, and was once enfeoffed as the Prince of Yiyang!
Everyone says that veterans of three dynasties have high seniority?
He's nothing but trash compared to Chen Shuda...
He served under Emperor Xuan of Chen and Emperor Houzhu of Chen during the Northern and Southern Dynasties.
He served under the Sui Dynasty: Emperor Wen of Sui and Emperor Yang of Sui.
He served under the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Taizong.
Chen Shuda was a veteran of six dynasties!
"That's right, scared now?"
Seeing Wei Shuyu frown, Chen Zhongfang raised his voice again.
*Smack*
Wei Shuyu raised his hand and slapped him across the face.
"Why are you making such a fuss? I can hear you!"
"..."
Chen Zhongfang's lips twitched, but he finally closed them.
But his eyes were full of stubbornness.
Wei Shuyu stood up and gave Chen Zhongfang a disdainful look...
"Your grandfather has been dismissed from his post, and you still dare to act tough in front of me?"
In the first year of the Zhenguan era, Li Shimin ascended the throne.
Chen Shuda was dismissed from his post simply because he argued with Xiao Yu in front of the emperor.
Obviously...
That was when Li Shimin had just ascended the throne and, in order to promote his own confidants, eliminated Li Yuan's old subordinates.
This also shows that...
Chen Shuda was utterly no match for Li Shimin!
"Give him a beating."
"Then tie him up and send him to see the authorities!"
