Ning Hongyuan took a few steps back in fear, then leaned against the guard, and quickly bounced away.
Begging for mercy, "Master Zhang, why is this happening? We are in the same group!"
Zhang Chang snorted coldly: "Ahem...you bastard! Who is in the same group with you?"
"If...if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have to go through this! Hit me!!!"
Ning Hongyuan wanted to explain, but a group of guards had already approached him and sticks were hitting him like raindrops, causing him to wail.
Zhang Chang looked at Ning Hongyuan, who was whimpering on the ground, with hatred on his face. He still felt resentful and turned to the housekeeper and asked, "Where's Jia Liang?"
The butler bowed and said, "He is waiting for you in the backyard."
"Pull it out and fight together!"
Soon Jia Liang was dragged out with a look of horror on his face and thrown into the stick formation.
"Master! Master! Why did you hit me! Why did you hit me!!"
Jia Liang was howling madly, his heart bleeding. He couldn't understand where he had gone wrong and why the whole world was targeting him!
Zhang Chang shouted angrily, "Shut up! If it weren't for you, this dog slave, I wouldn't have provoked Fang Zhengyi! This wouldn't have happened today! Hit me! Hit me hard!"
Jia Liang's head was covered with bruises from the beating and he felt very aggrieved. After helping Zhang Chang identify Fang Zhengyi, he went to the bow to wait and was not in the hall at all.
He left as soon as the boat landed. He was dragged out and beaten as soon as he arrived at the Shangshu Mansion. He had no idea what happened in between...
As soon as he heard Zhang Chang mention Fang Zhengyi, he realized that Zhang Chang must have been in a bad situation at Fang Zhengyi's hands!
Fang Zhengyi! It's Fang Zhengyi again!! My life has been full of tragedy since I first saw him!
Why? Was it just because of that concubine who was forced to death?!
Yes...it must be that bitch's ghost coming to avenge me after her death...
Thinking of this, Jia Liang felt hopeless... He just let himself be beaten without saying a word.
Ning Hongyuan saw that the person being beaten next to him stopped struggling, so he quickly came to his side and, relying on Jia Liang's body, blocked a lot of damage.
Zhang Chang's eyes widened upon seeing this, and he said in a trembling voice: "Great!! Great!! Ning Hongyuan, no wonder I was injured more seriously than you!"
"Pull them apart! Fight them separately!!"
Ning Hongyuan was horrified when he heard this, but after being hit by the stick, he gave up struggling and could only cover his face tightly with his hands.
There is only one thought in my mind: hit him if you want! Don't disfigure him...
"Take his hands away! Hit him in the face!"
The light in Ning Hongyuan's eyes disappeared...
Zhang Chang was furious and just wanted the damage to be doubled. Seeing him covering his face, you knew this was the part he cared about the most.
Upon hearing the order, the guard immediately tore Ning Hongyuan's hands apart and hit him in the face with sticks like raindrops...
Soon, Ning Hongyuan's handsome face became like a kaleidoscope...
The Minister of Revenue Zhang Shi heard noisy shouting in the yard and strode out of the hall.
As soon as I came out, I saw two people in the yard being beaten with sticks.
He couldn't help but frown and shouted, "Stop it!" Then he turned to look at Zhang Chang: "Chang'er! What happened?"
As soon as he saw his father coming, Zhang Chang's grievances burst out like a flood.
Thinking about the inhuman experiences tonight, I feel even more sad.
She rushed over and hugged Zhang Shi's thighs, tears streaming down her face: "Father!!"
When Zhang Shi saw his son's useless look, he pulled him up.
He said seriously, "What's wrong? If you have something to say, just talk it out. It's not proper to cry like a woman!"
Zhang Chang stood up still sobbing. His emotions were not completely relieved, and his chest was aching so much that he stood there gasping for breath.
Zhang Shiyi thought about it and guessed that his son's purpose of attending the poetry debate was to cause trouble for Fang Zhengyi.
This kind of behavior must have brought no good results, and may even have resulted in a great loss.
After Zhang Chang had completely recovered his breath, Zhang Shi continued to ask: "Let me ask you, why did you beat these two people, and who is the fat man in white?"
Zhang Chang glanced at Ning Hongyuan, who was beaten into a pig's head, and said bitterly: "It was these two...these two people instigated me to cause trouble for Fang Zheng!"
"They deserve to be beaten!"
Zhang Shi felt a little unhappy. He took a deep breath and said, "Tell me...what happened between you and Fang Zhengyi tonight? You suffered such a great injustice."
Zhang Chang felt sick at the thought of being stripped naked and stacked together with Ning Hongyuan, and he was actually on the bottom!
This matter....must not be known to the 33rd person!!
Thinking of this, Zhang Chang was shocked and stammered, "It's nothing... I just had some arguments with Fang Zhengyi..."
"Pa!" A heavy slap suddenly hit Zhang Chang's face, and then his cheek swelled up, leaving a clear slap mark...
Zhang Chang looked at Zhang Shi absentmindedly and said blankly: "Father..."
"Shut up! I don't have a useless son like you!" Zhang Shi looked disappointed.
Then he roared, "Didn't you want to cause trouble for Fang Zhengyi? Even if these two instigated you, wasn't it you who wanted to go in the end?!"
"You're crying after just a few words! You're taking your anger out on others after being scolded!"
"Why did I raise such a useless son like you! Huh!?"
"I thought you had grown up and changed a bit, but I didn't expect you to be as useless as a piece of crap!"
