C54 Hu Man Stirred up the Retreat of Confucian Scholars
In the study room at the Le Mansion, Gongsun Xu looked at the round-faced teenager with a proud face. He didn't know what to say other than sighing.
This young man was Le Hedang's eldest son, Le Liu. Because he didn't want to go to the Hou Mansion's academy, he had quarreled with Le Hedang on the spot.
After finishing his meal an hour ago, Le Hedang invited Gongsun Xu to the study room for tea. He wanted him to meet Le Liu, so he brought Le Liu to the school to hand over to him. Unexpectedly, the servants had searched the entire Le Mansion but hadn't found Le Liu. In the end, the butler had found his young master in a brothel and even coaxed him to return home.
Le Hedang gasped for breath. After a while, his face calmed down. He looked at Gongsun Xu's worried face and forced a smile, "Sorry for making a fool of myself. Let's talk about this later."
"Later?" Happy Willow jumped up like a chicken and shouted as she stomped, "Why are you still mentioning my ass!?" Father, I definitely won't go to that damn school! If you have the ability, then beat me to death! "
"Hehe, don't worry. I promise I won't beat you to death!" Le Hedang was so angry that he laughed instead and shouted, "Men!"
The old butler came in from outside the door and bowed: "Master, please instruct me!"
Le Hedang pointed at Le Liu and roared: "Drag this little bastard into the backyard and lock him up. Without my order, no one is allowed to let him out! "The violator's staff is dead!"
"Humph!" Just go! If you have the ability, don't ever let me out! " Le Liu didn't wait for the old steward to come over and pull him. She just said a few words, turned around and left the study.
The butler hurriedly bowed and followed him out.
"Unfilial son!" "Unfilial son!" Le Hedang held his chest and gasped heavily.
Gongsun Xu tried to persuade him awkwardly, "Uncle, please calm down. Little Brother Le Liu is still young after all. He will become sensible when he is older."
"Sigh." Le Hedang let out a long sigh, and his face became extremely tired.
Gongsun Xu stood up and said, "Uncle should take a good rest. I will take my leave first."
"Good!" My son, please forgive this old man for not sending you off. " Le Hedang waved his hands weakly and closed his eyes as he laid on the chair.
When Gongsun Xu walked out of the study room and closed the door, Le Hedang's long and faint sigh came from behind him again.
As soon as Gongsun Xu walked out of the study room, Ku Le came out from the side and asked in a low voice, "My lord, the father and son of Master Le seem to be quarrelling with each other. Is there anything wrong with them?"
"It's fine, it's just a little kid making a ruckus." Gongsun Xu shook his head indifferently. This was a family matter for the Le Family. As an outsider, it was better not to reveal it.
Ku Le didn't pursue this issue any further. After walking a few steps behind Gongsun Xu, he suddenly asked, "My lord, are we returning to the military camp now?"
"What's the matter?" Gongsun Xu asked as they walked.
Ku Le opened his mouth and was about to speak when Gongsun Yi suddenly ran over from outside and gasped, "Young master, something bad happened!"
"What's the matter?" Gongsun Xu stopped and couldn't help but frown.
"An hour ago, a group of scholars were outside the military camp, insulting their young master. Afterwards, they did not know how they found out that their young master had come to the Old Master Le's residence, so they came like a swarm of bees to block the front and back doors of the Old Master Le's residence. "
"It's just a bunch of barks!" Gongsun Xu laughed in disdain and asked, "What are you scolding me for?"
"They say that the young master is a traitor who went against the teachings of Sage Kong. Sooner or later, his entire family will die."
"Hur Hur, a bunch of idiots! He didn't even have the ability to scold people. "Ku Le!"
"My lord, please give your instructions!" Ku Le rubbed his hands together, wishing that he could immediately rush out to chop people.
"Come with me." Gongsun Xu beckoned Ku Le to come closer and spoke in a low voice.
"Master," Ku Le's expression was very wonderful as he said hesitantly, "Will there be a big problem if we do this? Those fellows are all scholars. I heard that scholars are worth a lot of money! "
"Where did your guts go?" Gongsun Xu shouted, "Just do it!"
"Here!" Ku Le answered with a cold tone and ran towards the yard beside him.
"Are there any problems in the military camp?" Gongsun Xu continued to walk forward.
"Almost all the brothers wanted to rush out and fight those scholars, but they were stopped by Officer Guo."
"Guo Jia handled the matter well. If the soldiers were to beat him, the matter would not be easy to deal with."
After taking a few steps forward, Gongsun Yi couldn't help but ask curiously, "What did the Young Noble want Ku Le and Academy Officer to do just now?"
"You'll know soon enough. Follow me."
As the two of them turned into a long corridor, Gongsun Rui, Liu Ninger and Le Cui Er came to meet them. Gongsun Rui kept muttering something. Liu Ninger's face was indignant. As she walked, she chatted with Yue Cui'er. When they saw Gongsun Xu, they quickly walked over.
Gongsun Rui grabbed Gongsun Xu's arm and shouted angrily, "Brother, those smelly scholars are scolding you randomly!"
"Hehe, it's just a bunch of mad dogs. Why bother about them?" Gongsun Xu patted the back of his sister's hand, signaling her not to be angry.
Liu Ninger interrupted, "They're even scolding Master Hou!"
"Don't be angry, we'll let you all watch a good show later!" Little sister Cui Er, where can you see the situation outside the big gate? "
"Elder brother Zi Min, please come with me." Leading the way, Le Cui'er made many turns and passed through this corridor, entering a four story building on the east side that was close to the wall. As expected, when he reached the third floor, he could see everything that was happening at the front door and hear his voice clearly.
There were almost a hundred people in the crowd, all of them wearing green or gray scholarly attire, wearing the crown on their heads, and surrounded by random shouts and curses. Amidst the curses, Gongsun Xu and Gongsun Zan's names appeared the most, and the eighteen generations of Gongsun Clan's ancestors also accompanied them.
Gongsun Rui said bitterly, "Brother, look at how hateful those fellows are!"
Gongsun Xu stared at the group of scholars with a calm gaze. "Don't worry, I've already instructed Ku Le to do something. Those idiots will be punished."
"Brother, what do you want Ku Le to do?" Before Gongsun Rui could finish her sentence, she suddenly pointed downwards with her mouth wide open and shouted, "Look! What are you holding onto Da Hui for?"
A few of them looked towards Gongsun Rui's direction at the same time. They saw Ku Le fearfully holding Da Hui's hand as they walked along a stone path that was more than ten feet wide towards the tightly closed door.
"I got it!" Gongsun Rui suddenly clapped her hands and shouted, "Brother wants Ku Le to drag Da Hui out and scare those guys away! Isn't that so, brother? "
"Hehe, we'll know when we see more."
"Humph!" If you don't want to say it, then forget it! "
Ku Le led Da Hui to the back of the door and had the servant behind the door bring a ladder. He climbed up the wall and shouted towards the outside like lightning.
The scholars outside were shocked and quickly took a few steps back. When they saw that it was a Hu Man, their anger rose as all kinds of responsibilities and curses rushed towards Ku Le.
Ku Le shouted with an arrogant tone, "I don't want to bother with idiots like you! "Listen well, it's under the order of your master. You are about to take your favorite pet out for a walk. If you guys aren't afraid of death, you can just stand guard outside the door!"
"Pui!" A mere pet wants to scare us off? "Hu Man, tell me, is it a dog or a cat?"
"Haha, my guess is that it is a horse! "Aiyo, I'm scared to death. What if I get bitten by a horse?"
"Horse?" At most, it's a mule! It might even be a chicken! "
"Alright!" Don't talk nonsense! " A scholar dressed in an embroidered robe, who looked like Leader, shouted and everyone gradually quieted down.
The scholar raised his head and shouted at Ku Le, "You are the barbarian son of Hu, I am ashamed to speak too much with you! Hurry up and ask Gongsun Zimin to come out, otherwise, we must teach him a lesson! "
"Gongsun Zimin, quickly come out!"
"The traitor Gongsun, get out here!"
"Get out here!"
The scholars who were standing around stomped their feet and shouted at the top of their lungs.
"Hehe, I will make you regret your actions later!" Ku Le spat out and climbed down the ladder. With the help of two servants, he prepared to climb onto Da Hui's broad back.
"Wait!" At this moment, a person suddenly scuttled out, took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it over to Ku Le.
"Why is he here?" Gongsun Xu was slightly surprised, this person was Gongsun Zan's head guard, the sixth brother.
Ku Le casually opened the letter, scratched his head in embarrassment and whispered something to Ku Le.
The sixth brother patted his forehead helplessly, took the letter back and read it once, then whispered in Ku Le's ear.
Ku Le's morale was boosted as he climbed onto Da Hui's back and urged him to open the door.
The three meter wide door creaked open.
The scholars shouted in excitement. Just as they were about to charge in, they suddenly saw a huge ferocious beast appear before them. They hurriedly shouted and retreated. Those behind charged forward while those in front retreated, immediately turning into a group of rolling gourds.
"Hahaha!" Ku Le laughed crazily with pride. He bent down and patted the back of Da Hui's head. Da Hui suddenly raised his head and let out a long cry that sounded like muffled thunder.
"Oh god, the monster is going to eat people!"
"Run!" Damn it, get out of my way! "
"Which bastard dares to kick my butt? Don't let me find you! "
"What the f * * k are you arguing about!?" Hurry up and run! Such a big fellow, he would definitely be able to eat a person in one gulp! "
The scholars were scared out of their wits and fled in all directions. Some of them even collapsed to the ground, their legs wet. They were actually scared to the point of losing control in public.
After Da Hui stopped his shouting, Ku Le gently clamped his legs together and shouted: "Da Hui, go!"
Da Hui shook his long nose and walked forward with steady and slow steps.
The crowd of scholars dispersed, leaving only the four or five leaders standing on the spot, at a loss of what to do.
The colorful-robed young master was the first to recover his senses, and bravely shouted, "That Hu Man, what kind of hero is he, relying on monsters to scare people?! "Do you dare to make the monsters stop and fight with us!"
"Haha, what do you not dare to do in front of this bunch of useless brats?" After laughing at him, Ku Le pulled the rope around Da Hui's neck to stop it, and asked with his nose to the sky: "What's the contest? "Bows and arrows, swords and spears, you can choose from!"
The young man rolled his eyes and said, "We are the descendants of saints, so of course we should use a sage's essay to clarify the truth. Who is going to fight with a barbarian like you?" You, Hu Man, with one glance, are clearly a vulgar and uncultured person. Quickly go back and let Gongsun Zimin come out! "
"Pui!" Is the guild afraid of you? " Ku Le spat in front of the colorful-robed scholar, and then shouted, "Competing with a saint's essay, right? Come, come, come! Your father is waiting for you! "
The colorful-robed scholar shouted, "The Sage's Day: 'Monarch's subjects, father and son.' Gongsun Xu has taken the initiative to restore Wild Qin's military merits. He is the world's number one traitor. "Hu Man, do you have any objections?"
"Of course I have objections!"
"What objection?" The colorful-robed scholar was stunned as he thought, "This Hu Man has some ability?"
Ku Le laughed and said, "I could kill you with a single punch! That's why it's your fault if this duke says you're wrong! "
"Pui!" This Hu Man was speaking nonsense; he was insulting! It should be killed! "
"Hu Man Zi is unreasonable. Brother Liu, don't waste your time talking to him. It's more reasonable to rush in and find Gongsun Xu!"
"My lords, please be quiet!" The colorful-robed young master shouted and waited for the surroundings to quiet down. He stared at Ku Le and sneered: "It was Gongsun Zimin who ordered you to come out and cause trouble, right?"
"Let you go." Mother. Of. What the heck! This noble just doesn't like you fools! " Ku Le shouted as he stared at the colorful-robed gongzi, "What? Liu Ji, do you still want to fight? Come on! "I beat you so hard that you're looking for your teeth all over the ground!"
"How do you know my name?" Liu Ji was shocked.
"Bah!" Ku Le scolded loudly, "You are full of righteousness and morals, you beast that is full of male whores and female thieves! Your brother's bones are not yet cold, you beast, and you are with your sister-in-law. Gouge, and secretly gave birth to a child! People are watching. Liu Ji, aren't you afraid of retribution? What face do you have to meet your parents and brothers in the future? "
"And you! Wang Liang! In order to take over Brother's family property, a thief actually dares to seek and kill Brother, what face do you have to stand here and speak? "
"Liu Zheng, don't run either!" Not long after your mother died, you raped the maid by her side, found out that she was pregnant, and then killed her! It's simply worse than a beast! "
"Who's that over there? You forced my father to die for some money, and you still dare to stand in front of me and lecture me?"
Ku Le scolded the leading scholars one by one, causing them to lose all color, especially Liu Ji and Wang Liang, who rolled their eyes and fainted.
Seeing this, the other students that followed them understood that Ku Le's words were true. Some people were furious, some pointed at Liu Ji's group and cursed, while others quietly fled. Soon, there were only a dozen or so scholars left at the main entrance of the Le Mansion.
