Red Mansion Royal Cat

Chapter 23 The murder caused by half a chicken leg

Huo Qiu was beaten up by Jia Lian and thrown into Nanchi. Naturally, the Huo family's guards would return to the mansion to report for help in such a big matter.

Jia Cong, who was leaning on the red building, was lying by the window and staring at the intersection leading to the red building. Unfortunately, the food was delivered, and the Huo family was not even seen.

Jia Lian frowned and knocked on the table: "Brother Cong, come over to eat. Everyone has been beaten. If the Huo family doesn't come, wouldn't people laugh at the Huo family for their lack of guts? Don't worry, they will definitely come."

rub rub...

Jia Cong ran to Jia Lian's side and asked next to him, "Second brother, did you often fight before? I saw that you were very skillful in fighting. When Huo Qiu saw you, his eyes were full of Fear, have you beaten him before?"

This question can be regarded as poking at Jia Lian's itching spot, not to mention, Jia Lian really beat Huo Qiu before, and it wasn't just Huo Qiu, he beat most of the people of the same generation in the Four Kings and Eight Dukes' Houses once.

why?Beauty is a disaster!
The eldest daughter of the Wang family, Wang Xifeng, has an older brother like Wang Ren, who is considered unlucky for eight lifetimes.I don't know what he was thinking, but he even boasted that his sister was as beautiful as a fairy, which made this group of adolescent boys want to go to Wang's house to have a look.

At that time, the various houses had close contacts, and many people were good friends of the family. Just like this, almost everyone sneaked a glance or two at Wang Xifeng.

At this time, the Rongguo Mansion and the Wang family had made a marriage contract for Jia Lian and Jia Lian, and since they were childhood sweethearts, the relationship between the two quickly heated up.

One day at a feast among the nobles, someone mentioned Wang Xifeng to Jia Lian, probably because his heart was sour, and his words offended Wang Xifeng, so Jia Lian showed the demeanor of Lian's second master to the outside world for the first time.

It is said that the second master Lian fought against more than a dozen people by himself that day, and the group of honorable children who were beaten with bruises all over their bodies couldn't be recognized by his mother after returning home.

After this battle alone, no one in the honorable circle in the capital dared to mention Wang Xifeng in front of Jia Lian, and at the same time, Wang Xifeng's love was deeply rooted, and he cared more and more about Jia Lian.

Six or seven years have passed since this incident, and of course Jia Cong didn't know about it.

Jia Lian didn't explain too much, just nodded, and said arrogantly: "There are only a dozen or so people who have beaten, and Huo Qiu is one of them."

Good guy, what do you mean, you hit a dozen or so people!
Jia Cong was still asking, but it was a pity that Jia Lian seemed to have scruples and didn't say anything more.Instead, he asked, "Brother Zhen, what do you think Uncle Jing will do?"

"Daddy means to get rid of Brother Zhen's patriarch. Brother Rong is already twenty, so it's good to hand over the Ningguo Mansion to him."

Jia Cong's answer made Jia Lian a little worried. Cousin Jia Zhen is not a good person, and Jia Rong and his father made no compromises.

How could he be at ease when the patriarch of the Jia family handed it over to the couple?Does father know about the bad things about these two men?It seems that there are some things that he still has to explain to his father.

chirp chirp...

There was a chirping sound, and Jia Lian, who came back to his senses, looked down and saw that Jia Cong was already gnawing on a chicken leg.

Thinking of Jia Cong being loved by his father and being a celebrity in front of His Majesty the Emperor, why don't you discuss with him and find a way to move the seat of the patriarch to the big house of Rongguo Mansion?Putting it on others is not as reliable as putting it on yourself!

……

The two brothers were enjoying their meal, but outside the red building, they were already surrounded by a group of armored soldiers.

After Mrs. Hu went out to welcome her, she wanted to lift the person behind her to suppress the person coming, but was slapped back by a middle-aged man.

He scolded angrily: "The prince of Nan'an is here, if you don't get out of here, don't dirty the eyes of His Royal Highness!"

"Hey, Old Zheng, how can one use one's status to suppress others? My father and king have always taught us brothers not to rely on the power of the palace to oppress goodness. Aren't you trying to ruin the reputation of our Nan'an palace?"

Lady Hu covered her face and looked at the speaker, only to see a young man wearing a python robe embroidered with gold and silver threads, a gold crown and jade belt, and a valuable jade pendant tied around his waist with the word Nan'an inscribed on it.

This man was handsome and suave, but it made Mrs. Hu, who was used to seeing the world, secretly wary.

Because she couldn't see the slightest emotion from the boy's eyes.And every word he said was fished out of the ice cellar, which made people shudder.

Madam Hu recalled what the owner behind her had said when she first took over Yihonglou last year: "Huo Lan, the son of Prince Nan'an, is cruel and fierce, and likes to eat people's hearts..."

Happy to eat people's hearts is just spreading rumors, but one thing she can be sure of is that Huo Lan kills people like hemp, and in a few days, someone in Nan'an Palace will be tortured to death by Huo Lan and thrown into the incarnation field.

Just as Madam Hu was thinking wildly, Huo Lan raised her chin with the paper fan in her hand, stared at her with a pair of ruthless and cold eyes and asked, "Is Jia Lian from Rongguo Mansion still up there?"

Snapped!
A half-gnawed chicken leg hit Huo Lan on the head, and answered the question for Mrs. Hu.

"Ah, my chicken legs!"

A childish shout made the stunned people look up, and saw a seven or eight-year-old boy lying on the window edge of the third floor of the Red Building, stretching out his hand and calling for Brother Chicken Leg.

"My son, this man is Jia Cong, the youngest son of Jia She from the Rongguo Mansion!"

"Very good, very good, hehe!"

Huo Lan gracefully wiped the oil stains on the top of her head with a silk handkerchief, suppressed her nausea and glanced at the half chicken leg at her feet, threw the used silk handkerchief away, and showed a sinister smile.

"Very good, let's go, follow me up and see what kind of character this little Jia Qianhu, who is famous all over the capital, is!"

He raised his foot and kicked half of the chicken leg flying away, as if to vent his anger.But as the chicken legs flew into Nanchi, Huo Lan suddenly felt a sharp pain in his shoulder.

Snapped!
A stone bullet slammed into Huo Lan's right shoulder, only to hear a complaint from above his head: "Oh, it missed!"

Huo Lan looked up, and sure enough, it was the young man from Rongguo Mansion again.

This time he couldn't maintain his elegance no matter what, he scolded angrily: "Jia Cong, you dare to hit me? Do you want to die?"

"So what if I hit you? Who told you to kick my chicken leg away!"

Jia Cong had reloaded the stone bullets a long time ago. While speaking, he fully loaded the slingshot, aimed and fired, but this time someone blocked it for Huo Lan.

Huo Lan didn't understand that Jia Cong was looking for faults, and the person behind it must be Jia Lian.

When he led people to the third floor, he saw two guards from the Rongguo Mansion standing at the door of the private room. Inside the private room, Jia Lian was drinking wine leisurely, and Jia Cong who was next to him had already climbed down from the window sill. , Holding a chicken leg and chewing.

Seeing the chicken leg in Jia Cong's hand, Huo Lan, who was already furious, became furious immediately. He snatched a whip from the hand of the guard around him and rushed in.

Contrary to what he expected, the guards of Rongguo Mansion let Huo Lan rush in as if they didn't see him.

Huo Lan scolded furiously: "Little concubine of the Jia family, you are looking for death, you dare to offend me, you will pay the price today!"

As he spoke, he picked up the whip and lashed at Jia Cong fiercely. Jia Lian was still drinking the wine unhurriedly, but slightly raised his head and gave Huo Lan a sarcastic look.

Instead, Jia Cong evaded to the side, picked up the handkerchief to wipe his hands, and slowly took it out from his chest, the chubby hand raised something, golden light, auspicious clouds and crouching dragons!
"Huo Lan, if you use force in front of Jin Ling, I think you are courting death!"

　Thanks to GYC, Chi Su Tuanzi, and all the way to the red tip!
