Faced with Ou Xiong's question, the prison slave was sweating profusely and replied nervously: "After the master leaves, there will be distinguished guests from Jiaozhou..."
Ou Xiong's face brightened slightly when he heard this. It turned out that the distinguished guests from Jiaozhou he had invited had arrived. He thought something had happened again, so he couldn't help but said angrily: "Those dead dogs from Wang Yin, in order to save them, they actually made me miss the opportunity to welcome the distinguished guests."
, when they come back in the future, I will give them a few whips. Have you entertained the distinguished guests well on my behalf?"
The prison slave said tremblingly: "How dare you, a villain, neglect your distinguished guests? The fine wine, delicious food, and beauties are all the same, but, just..."
Ou Xiong frowned and said, "Just what?"
"It's just that the distinguished guests were drunk and insisted on going to the city for a stroll. The villains couldn't stop them. When they arrived in the city, they went to the wine shop to drink. They got so drunk that they not only smashed the wine shop, but also killed the owner and the servants.
Injured..."
"What's the result?" Ou Xiong stared at the prisoner with sinister eyes.
"As a result, the distinguished guests were arrested by the city officials, but the villain..."
When Ou Xiong heard that the distinguished guest had been arrested, he was furious. He raised his arm and whipped the prisoner in the face.
The prison slave covered his face and screamed, a bloody whip mark looming between his fingers.
Ou Xiong still couldn't understand his hatred, so he whipped him again and cursed loudly: "You bitch slave! I trusted you so much in vain and entrusted all the family affairs to you, and this is how you repay me?!"
"Master, calm down, master... the villain has rescued the distinguished guest." The prison slave said quickly. If he didn't say anything, he would have no chance to say it again. He knew Ou Xiong's temper very well. His predecessor was hacked to death by Ou Xiong in a fit of anger.
The fire in Ou Xiong's heart is still burning brightly, and the person can be rescued intact, but what about his lost prestige? Now, everyone in Changsha is probably laughing at him!
Ou Xiong's eyes showed a fierce look and he asked: "Is it Liu Zhongda who did it again?"
The prison slave hissed secretly in pain and replied: "No, it's Xie Liang, the Right Secretary of the City?"
Ou Xiong was stunned when he heard this. Who is Xie Liang?
The prison slave knew that Ou Xiong's temper would never give up, so he investigated Xie Liang early in the morning.
When Ou Xiong heard the prison slave's report, he couldn't help but look shocked. He raised his head and laughed for a while and said: "Hahahaha...! How dare a mere untouchable clerk dare to mess with me?! This is a way of bullying me!"
"
A man rushed out behind Ou Xiong on horseback. This man had a strong body, a mole on his eyebrows, and was full of evil spirits. He could only hear him saying to Ou Xiong: "If this man is not dead, what prestige does brother have in Changsha? I will go there tomorrow."
Go to the city and kill him!"
His name is Ou Sheng, and he is Ou Xiong's younger brother. He is brave and warlike, and has killed many people with his own hands. He can be called Ou Xiong's right-hand man.
The other knights also clamored, not only did Xie Liang want to die, but his whole family was also killed. Only in this way could the prestige be restored.
At this time, Ou Xiong regained some sense, shook his head and said, "We'll talk about it when we go back first." After saying that, he rode his horse into Ou's Wubao and arrived at his home.
To be invited to Changsha as a guest by a district hero, they are naturally not ordinary people. They are either children of local wealthy families in Jiaozhou, or their fathers are Qu commanders or chiefs. In short, they have extraordinary backgrounds.
They are used to being arrogant in their hometown and have never suffered a loss. This time they were invited to Changsha as guests. They thought they could sit back and relax with Ou and Ou Xiongzhao watching, but they never expected that Ou's "signature" would be of no use at all.
No, they were put in the city jail for a whole day and night.
"Brother District, you are back..."
As soon as they saw the district hero returning, seven Jiaozhou people gathered around him and complained. They all had injuries more or less on their bodies, and one of them was particularly serious. His eyes were so swollen that he could hardly see anything.
Ou Xiong clasped his hands in his fists and said solemnly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I, Ou Xiong, am the one who is sorry for you. Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation."
The most injured person sarcastically said: "Brother Ou, aren't you the leading hero in Changsha? Why is it that even a city official is not afraid of your reputation? When I was captured by the city official, I mentioned that I was the guest of Uncle Ou Yuan.
, not only was the opponent not afraid, but he punched me a few more times."
"Yes, that person is really hateful..."
When Ou Xiong heard this, he was so angry that his teeth almost broke. After finally appeasing several people, he went straight to the hall and sat down, without even taking a bite of dinner. He sat there all night long.
At dawn, Ou Xiong stood up slowly with his bloodshot eyes staring at him.
…………
Zhuge Liang and Du Xi were both frequent visitors to the market, but this was the first time they came at the same time.
Liu Jing thought it was a good thing, but he didn't expect Zhuge Liang to bring bad news.
When he learned that his family would leave Changsha the day after tomorrow, Liu Jing's expression became very complicated and he said, "Kong Ming, does your uncle really not intend to recuperate for a while?"
Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and replied: "I have tried to persuade you countless times in the past few days, but my uncle is determined and unmoved."
Liu Jing sighed and said: "My uncle's body seems to have recovered, but in fact the virus has accumulated in the body and it is not necessarily possible to remove it all. He should rest for a period of time to completely eliminate the consequences."
Du Xi said: "What Zhongda said makes sense. Changsha is wet and poisonous. People from the north often get sick when they come here. Even if they recover, they should be treated with caution." He moved to Changsha with his family, and there were illnesses in his family.
Many people died of illness, so I was deeply touched.
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said nothing. As a junior, it was difficult for him to influence Zhuge Xuan's decision.
While the three were talking, there was a loud noise outside the window. Liu Jingzheng felt strange. Then the market became noisy. A city official stumbled in and said with a horrified expression: "Mr. Liu, something bad is going to happen!"
Liu Jing asked: "What happened?"
The city official looked panicked. At this time, Ma Zhou walked in and said on his behalf: "Xie Shi was captured by District Yuanbo and his men. Now he is hanging at the East City Gate and whipped in public..."
"What did you say?!" Liu Jing stood up suddenly, his eyes as sharp as a sword.
Du Xi and Zhuge Liang couldn't help but look surprised. Of course they had heard the name of Ou Yuanbo. It was said that this person was extremely domineering, but they didn't expect that he was so domineering.
In order to establish prestige and frighten Xiao Xiao, the imperial court often punished criminals in the market. Today, it was completely the opposite.
Liu Jing sighed and said to Zhuge Liang and Du Xi: "Today I finally know why Yin Shang built the 'tiger's lair' back then!"
Zhuge Liang and Du Xi have both read the "Book of Han", so they naturally know who Yin Shang is.
This man was a famous cruel official during the reign of Emperor Cheng of the former Han Dynasty. At that time, Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty was slacking off on government affairs and there was great chaos in Chang'an. Young men in the alleys met and drew red pills to kill military officials, and drew black pills to kill civil servants. For a time, the dead were marched across the capital with the sound of drums.
.
After Yin Shang arrived in Ren Chang'an, he ordered many caves to be dug, each several feet deep, covered with bluestones, and named them "Tiger Cave". Then he captured hundreds of young knights and villains, threw them all into the caves, and left them to die wailing.
