"Just wait and see."
...
Inside Fengyao Tower, the crowd was now vaguely divided into two groups.
Half of them were scholars who came to discuss poetry and lyrics seriously, and the other half were people invited by Ni Wenchun.
Ni Wenchun was surrounded in the middle, looking unhappy.
Friends around him kept trying to comfort him, "Brother Ni, take it easy. Why bother getting angry with this rude man? He will soon be embarrassed by his empty talk."
Ni Wenchun shook his head, then hooked his finger at the person closest to him and whispered, "Brother Liu, don't you know some thugs? Please ask them to teach this guy a lesson. This thief insulted me in public, and I really can't swallow this breath... If Qinghan wasn't here, I would definitely make him bleed!"
Brother Liu whispered, "Brother Ni, this person's identity is unknown, but he dares to make such bold statements. Shouldn't we investigate it thoroughly before taking action?"
"What's there to investigate? He's wearing coarse clothes and speaking in a vulgar way. I think he's just the son of a merchant with a little money. What kind of status can he have?"
"So what do you want to do?"
Ni Wenchun looked through the gap in the crowd, cast a ferocious gaze at Fang Zhengyi, and said gloomily: "Just break one of his legs. It's a small punishment but a big warning."
"This..." Brother Liu hesitated.
He felt that breaking a leg was a bit too much, "Brother Ni, why not just give him a good beating. This man is certainly hateful, but breaking his legs is really too much. If the Jinyiwei finds out, your father..."
Ni Wenchun turned his gaze towards him and squinted his eyes and said, "The people who came to give me face today are all my friends. I am not afraid of losing face in front of my friends."
"But what about the others? If the poem he wrote today gets out, how will I cope with it? Where will my father's face be?"
"We must teach him a hard lesson and let him know the pain!"
"Tell me the truth, can you find someone to help me?"
Brother Liu gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, since you said so, I will help you. But the person I hire charges a lot of money. Breaking a leg will probably cost dozens of taels of silver."
"Heh, a few dozen taels is nothing, as long as the person is reliable. After you find the person, let him wait until the show is over before you take action."
"Absolutely reliable. This man is called Ji Kun, and he is the Fenghuo Gang's top fighter. It's very rare to hire him now. I'll go now."
After Brother Liu finished speaking, he left in a hurry.
