An attendant hugged Gao Yanei's waist from behind, and Wang Hongfu took advantage of this opportunity to punch and kick Gao Yanei, making him scream.
Zhang Shixun felt that it was time for him to take action. Since he had come out with Gao Yanei, it was neither right nor moral for him to watch Gao Yanei get beaten.
Although he doesn't know martial arts, he exercises regularly and is still very strong.
He kicked the man holding Gao Yanei on the butt. The man screamed and let go.
Wang Hongfu saw this and shouted angrily, "Let's go together and break their legs."
Several followers responded in unison and pounced on him with their fangs bared.
He left Gao Yanei's followers outside, and there were only two of them in the field, so they were at a disadvantage simply in terms of numbers.
Zhang Shixun had never fought since he was a child. Apart from playing 98k chicken, he had no actual combat experience. When he encountered such a situation, he couldn't help but feel nervous.
In a panic, he didn't have time to think about it. He picked up a stool and smashed it on the shoulder of the guy in front, then rushed to Wang Hongfu and grabbed his collar.
Although he was a little nervous, his mind was still clear and he knew that to catch a thief, one must first capture the leader.
Gao Yanei had recovered his shock. Seeing that Wang Hongfu was caught by Zhang Shixun, how could he miss this great opportunity? He picked up a teapot and smashed it on the back of Wang Hongfu's head. With a "crash", the ceramic teapot shattered and tea and blood flowed out.
Everyone around was stunned. How could Gao Yanei be so powerful? He actually dared to hit Wang Hongfu with a teapot.
What if I accidentally kill him?
This is the only son of the prime minister Wang Fu.
Although Gao Qiu's official position was not small, being the general manager of the Palace Front Office, he was still far inferior to Wang Fu, who was the prime minister of the dynasty and a civil servant.
The civil officials of the Song Dynasty were much more powerful than the military officials.
Wang Hongfu was hit hard by the teapot. His body swayed and stars danced in front of his eyes. He was stunned for a long time before shaking his head and reaching out to wipe the blood.
"Wang Husun, do you want me to crush your balls?" Zhang Shixun put his face close to him, so that their eyes were only two fingers apart.
Wang Hongfu shuddered.
"Tell me, do you want to be a eunuch?" Zhang Shixun looked at his crotch.
"You...you..." Wang Hongfu was so scared that his legs went weak and his body fell down.
He was frightened into this state after just a little scare, which shows that he is a weak person.
Suddenly, a black object flew towards this side with the sound of wind. Zhang Shixun reacted quickly, let go of Wang Fangdang and dodged to the side. The object flew past in front of his eyes with a "whoosh" sound and hit the face of He Ji who was watching the fun.
He Ji cried out "Ouch!" and when he looked down at the thing, he saw it was a broken shoe. He couldn't help but get furious and screamed, "Who is so blind as to throw a shoe at me?"
Seeing that no one answered, He Ji was so angry that he grabbed the shoe and threw it in the direction where the shoe was flying. After throwing it away, he still felt unsatisfied, so he grabbed a tea bowl on the table in front of him and threw it out.
Just as I threw the tea bowl away, a tile flew from somewhere and shattered on the table with a "bang".
He Ji became even angrier and grabbed a wine jug and threw it into the crowd.
The place suddenly became a mess, with shouting, crying and melon seed shells, shoes, tea bowls and even bricks flying in the air.
Gao Yanei was hit on the head by a tile and jumped up and down cursing.
Zhang Shixun was hit on the face by something, but he ignored the pain and grabbed Gao Yanei, saying, "Stop cursing. Let's get out of here while the chaos is going on."
"Wait." Gao Yanei grabbed the wine bowl on the table and threw it into the crowd, then followed Zhang Shixun to squeeze out.
"Don't let that guy get away, stop him quickly." Seeing Gao Yanei and the other two were about to leave, Wang Hongfu hurriedly called out to his followers.
When several followers heard their master's order, they did not dare to delay and hurriedly squeezed towards Zhang Shixun and the other two. However, the venue was in chaos and everyone was pushing their way out of the lotus shed, so these followers could not squeeze in at all.
Gao Yanei was definitely not a good person. While squeezing outside, he grabbed whatever he could and threw it around.
"Someone's been trampled to death! Someone's been trampled to death!" A cry of surprise came from the direction of the door.
The whole place was in chaos.
Regardless of the era, stampedes are the most feared occurrence in public places where crowds gather. In panic, everyone just wants to leave the scene and doesn't care about others at all. Once they fall, it is difficult to get up again due to the pushing and shoving.
Zhang Shixun turned his head to look at the door, and saw a crowd of people, crying, shouting and cursing.
Wang Meng, the judge of the Left Army Patrol Court, and several soldiers stood on both sides of the gate, shouting and cursing at the top of their lungs, but they still couldn't stop the panicked crowd, and even they were pushed aside.
Just as the argument was getting heated, a bamboo whistle suddenly sounded outside the door, and someone shouted loudly: "We are from Kaifeng Prefecture. Everyone, squat down. Those who don't squat will be beaten with sticks."
A group of yamen runners rushed into the lotus shed with sticks in their hands, shouting: "Get down! Everyone, get down!"
Gao Yanei whispered, "The Kaifeng Prefecture has arrived. Their prefect is called Nie Shan, and he's not someone you'll want to mess with. We'd better not let him get hold of anything."
Zhang Shixun let go of Wang Hongfu and pretended nothing had happened.
Wang Hongfu took a few steps back, hid behind his followers, and picked up a bench leg.
Wang Meng, the judge from the Left Army Patrol Court, came over and nodded to Gao Yanei. Then he walked up to Wang Hongfu and said with a grin, "Wang Yanei, someone has died in the shed. This has become a big deal. Even the Kaifeng Prefecture's Nie Fuzun has been alerted."
"So what if I alarm him?"
"Listen to my advice and drop the things in your hand. If Nie Fuzun sees it, you will suffer the consequences."
Wang Hongfu hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and was about to drop the bench leg in his hand when Wang Meng added, "Mr. Nie is a man of upright character, unafraid of power. Even if you are Prime Minister Wang's son, he probably won't show any mercy. Listen to my advice, you better drop what you have in your hand. Otherwise, if you are arrested and taken to Kaifeng Prefecture, Prime Minister Wang will lose face..."
This statement obviously had no good intentions.
Wang Hongfu was provoked by Wang Meng's words, and his dandy temper was aroused. "Wang Meng, stop trying to scare me. I'm not afraid of Mr. Nie."
Wang Meng gave a thumbs up and said, "As expected of Prime Minister Wang's son, a tiger father will have a dog son."
Wang Hongfu spat on the ground and said, "As the lord of a prefecture, there's no way that old man Nie Shan would come to the Lotus Pavilion."
"You are wrong, Young Master Yan. Look, Master Nie Shan and Master Nie Fu are already here." Wang Meng pointed towards the door.
Everyone looked towards the door and saw a tall, thin, middle-aged man standing in the middle of the door with his hands behind his back. Two large lanterns hanging on the door reflected on his face, and a stern expression could be vaguely seen. A group of yamen runners stood behind him like stars surrounding the moon.
