Chapter 374: Lie
"Mr. Liang, are you coming to our Yunzhou... to distribute your wealth?" Gongsun Yushu couldn't help but tease.
After all, looking at the treasures behind him, they were either won away or smashed by others today. Liang Zhou had no intention of taking them back.
"Give away the money?" Liang Zhou smiled and glanced at the things behind him that he had taken from his uncle.
"Brother Gongsun, you are joking. These things are just for fun. How can they be considered as spending money? They are just for killing time."
"Alas, it's just that I didn't bring any other goodies with me this time. We had much more fun every day in Beijing."
Gongsun Yushu's mouth twitched slightly, "You play like this every day in the capital?"
"What else?" Liang Zhou spat out another lychee pit, which fell to the ground. Immediately, a waiter who had received the money came over and diligently helped him clean it up.
Liang Zhou didn't even look at the man, he just sighed:
"Life is hard enough, so we have to do something interesting to have fun."
While the two were talking, two more treasures were smashed on the stage, and Liang Zhou also didn't even blink.
"Hehe..." Gongsun Yushu laughed dryly twice, thinking that the playboys from the capital were really... different.
I am the one who has the final say in Yunzhou City, and I dare not waste money like this.
My dad always says that I am a spendthrift. Compared with the person in front of me, I am too conservative, okay?
Gongsun Yushu was still reflecting on his own behavior as a playboy when he heard Liang Zhou say "Puh" twice in disgust, as if he had eaten a sour lychee.
"These lychees were shipped from Lingnan and are indeed inedible... just like people."
"What?" Gongsun Yushu didn't understand at once.
Liang Zhou frowned, looking annoyed.
"Isn't Ding Wangyuan transferred from Lingnan? He's just a country bumpkin, but he really takes himself seriously.
I live in the government office to give him face, so my food and drink expenses must naturally follow the rules of the Prince's Mansion.
That Ding guy actually came up to me and said... I have to pay for the portion of the entertainment money that exceeds the court quota out of my own pocket."
Liang Zhou seemed to be telling an extremely ridiculous joke and was laughing so hard that he was out of breath.
"Brother Gongsun, do you dare to believe this? Hahahaha, I'm so happy..."
"You say, should I teach him the rules of being an official?"
Gongsun Yushu smiled and took a sip of tea, saying, "Of course."
He remembered that he had sent someone to follow Liang Zhou yesterday to find out the truth, and the report he received said that Liang Zhou and the prefect's son Ding Xiaoqiu had a fight in front of the government office.
It seems that there is indeed a lot of resentment.
However...Gongsun Yushu still decided to give it one more try.
“Mr. Liang, if you are not used to living in the government office…if you don’t mind, why not move to the Earl’s Mansion.
Our Earl's Mansion may not be comparable to your Uncle's Mansion, but the food, clothing and daily expenses are definitely a thousand times better than that of the prefectural government!"
"I get angry when you say that!" Liang Zhou seemed to be triggered by something and slammed the cup in his hand onto the table.
Cursed:
"Brother Gongsun, you don't know. When we said goodbye yesterday, I was planning to go back and take a short rest. But in the evening, the government office was in a mess, as if someone was carried in.
Then there was a person crying there, crying from dusk till dawn, crying like a soul-calling person, making people unable to sleep all night!
No, the more I think about this, the angrier I get.”
Liang Zhou stood up from the couch and said through gritted teeth:
"I'm going back to the government office right now to pull that man out. Cry, cry, cry. I'm going to make him cry his fill today!"
Gongsun Yushu's heart trembled, and he immediately thought of what happened yesterday when Liao Xing came to see him and said that Gong Yuanliang had been taken away by people from the prefectural yamen.
It seems that what Liang Zhou was talking about was Gong Yuanliang and his son.
Gongsun Yushu calmly poured a glass of wine for Liang Zhou and said with a smile:
"Mr. Liang has come from afar and is unfamiliar with the place, so some things may not be convenient for him to do.
You and I, brothers, met each other too late. If you want to teach someone a lesson, I can do it for you."
"Oh?" Liang Zhou's eyes lit up, and then he hesitated and said, "I'm afraid... it will dirty Brother Gongsun's hands."
"It's okay, it's okay. You just need to find a way to get the person out. Don't worry about the rest."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Gongsun?"
"We are one family, so why should we be polite?"
The two of them smiled knowingly, with a tacit understanding of being in cahoots with each other.
The teacups clinked lightly together, and Gongsun Yushu pretended to drink tea while secretly observing Liang Zhou's expression.
It just so happens that since we have mentioned the Gong family father and son, we might as well take this opportunity -
Find out whether this Mr. Liang is of the same kind as the man named Ding.
…
On the second day, in the evening, Liang Zhou brought Gong Shao to the outskirts of Yunzhou.
Looking around, it was a desolate scene with only a few scattered houses, and it seemed that no one had lived there for a long time.
"Wait a minute." Gong Shao suddenly stopped and said.
Liang Zhou stopped and looked back at him.
"Master Gong, if you regret it now, it's not too late."
Liang Zhou's tone was calm, without any contempt or sarcasm.
Gong Shao's eyes fell on the houses in the distance, knowing what would happen once he went in.
It is impossible to say that I am not afraid.
Who in this world is not afraid of death?
But when I thought of my loved ones being stabbed in the chest by a sharp blade in front of me, with blood flowing like a river——
The surging blood immediately diluted the fear.
He shook his head slightly, "Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back."
"Mr. Liang, if I die, please take care of my father."
After Gong Shao finished speaking, he was about to bow to Liang Zhou, but Liang Zhou stopped him.
"Don't move." He glanced at her, "If you bow, our play today will be exposed."
"Don't worry, we will act as soon as possible. By then, the Ning Anbo Mansion will be attracted by us and will not have so much time to embarrass you."
"We will also take good care of your father and wait for you and your son to be reunited."
Gong Shao nodded and followed Liang Zhou towards one of the dilapidated houses.
"This is it, let's go in."
Liang Zhou stopped at the door. Gong Shao took a deep breath and pushed the door open.
Just as he stepped into the house, a pair of hands suddenly came out from behind the door and put a huge sack on Gong Shao's head.
Gong Shao struggled violently, but the opponent was obviously very strong and skilled, and he put Gong Shao into the sack in no time.
At this time, Gong Shao's struggle had become an instinct for survival, and the man who attacked him thought he was too noisy, so he hit him with a stick, with just the right amount of force to knock him unconscious.
Liang Zhou stood outside the door and watched all this in silence. His handsome profile was hidden in the shadows and his expression could not be seen clearly.
"Hahaha, Master Liang really keeps his word!"
Gongsun Yushu's hearty laughter rang out from behind Liang Zhou, and he seemed very satisfied.
Liang Zhou turned around with a frivolous and nonchalant smile on his face, "This guy is just like that Ding guy, both are annoying, but I tricked him into coming here with just a few words."
"Oh?" Gongsun Yushu became interested and asked Liang Zhou how he tricked him here.
