Chapter 21
Tonight, Ouyang Teng was sitting in his study, not missing a line, carefully checking the road construction ledger.

"My son has seen Daddy." Ouyang Jinyu pushed open the door of the study room. After not seeing Ouyang Teng for many days, she felt a little excited, and her salute was more respectful than before, "I came from Lintong's Zhuangzi, and I have seen grandma and the others."

"You child, why are you so courageous? Your mother whispers about you in my ear every day, as long as you come back safely." Ouyang Teng is tall, neither fat nor thin, with a Chinese character face, dark skin, and slender Big eyes and big nose.

His skin was originally slightly dark, but these days he was supervising road construction by the Bahe River, and his skin was tanned and oily, but fortunately, Mrs. Wang didn't dislike him.

"I want to take the opportunity of selling ice-making recipes to visit the beautiful scenery of the Southland, but this recipe has attracted so many people's attention." Ouyang Jinyu was helped up by the smiling Ouyang Teng to sit down.

Ouyang Teng suddenly shouted out of the study in joy: "Come here, wake up the third young master and let him come to the study to see the second young master."

After the sleepy Ouyang Jinlei arrived, Ouyang Jinyu said a few words to him, asked him about his homework, and asked him to go back to his room.

Ouyang Teng smiled all over his face, not realizing how disturbing Ouyang Jinyu's next conversation was.

"Father, do you know Dongfang Xuanyi, the son Dongfang Xuanyi who was raised by the Duke of Dongfang?"

Ouyang Teng has the talent of photographic memory. He will always remember everything he hears and sees. He said puzzledly: "I know the son of Dongfang. He is the true disciple of the old man Xuantian. He appeared in the south a few years ago when he was less than ten years old. Fame. What happened to him?"

"He told me something himself." Ouyang Jinyu repeated Dongfang Xuanyi's words last night, and said coldly under Ouyang Teng's stunned expression: "If others say these things, I will only listen to them I went to investigate, but I believed [-]% of what the son said at the time." I definitely want to investigate, but before the investigation, I need to communicate with my father and uncle.

Ouyang Teng stood up abruptly, clenched his fists with both hands, and said through gritted teeth: "The Qin family is so vile and despicable, I want to write a letter to sue!"

Ouyang Jinyu knew that Zhichangzi's father would say that, and hurriedly said: "Father, don't say we don't have evidence, even if there is, what charges should we sue the Qin family?"

Ouyang Teng was dumbfounded.

"Our family's engagement with the Qin family is a matter of mutual consent, not the Qin family's force." Ouyang Jinyujun sighed with a serious face, and said: "We will suffer for the dumb."

Ouyang Teng said stubbornly: "No. I will find a way to announce what the Qin family has done. The Qin family must pay for it!"

"Qin Huang died at the hands of the second prince. If our family announces this matter, how can the second prince spare our family." Ouyang Jinyu repeatedly thought about how to take revenge on the Qin family on the way back to Lintong from Henan Road.

Ouyang Teng exclaimed excitedly: "The second prince kills people and must obey the law. Qin Huang reads the books of sages, but acts like a beast. Even if he dies, he will lose his honor as a Jinshi. Qin Lichang, as the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, covered up the murder case and broke the law knowingly, He should lose his official position and go into exile."

Qin Lichang is the father of Qin Jian and Qin Huang, and the servant of the Ministry of Punishment of the Dahua Dynasty.

"What you said is right. But calm down and think about it, Your Majesty can make the second prince come to justice? Qin Huang is a person from Chang'an Academy, and Chang'an Academy can make him lose his scholarship to protect his reputation?" Ouyang Jinyu's voice It's not high or low, but every sentence shocked Ouyang Teng's heart, "Qin Lichang is an official of the fourth rank, and the oldest official in our family is uncle, who is on the same level as him. Now uncle is confined at home by His Majesty and cannot go to the office for a month. Early morning, how can we bring him down?"

Ouyang Teng's eyes turned red with anger and anxiety, and said: "Jinhua almost died because of Qin Huang, but Qin Huang is such a beast, and the Qin family still wants to plot against Jinhua. Are we just going to stand by like this?" Seeing Jinhua suffer so much?"

Ouyang Jinyu didn't answer, but stared fixedly at Ouyang Teng, and said in a low voice: "Qin Huang's matter is not a day or two, he even had a child with that actor's sister before he was alive. How could this matter be kept secret. Uncle asked you to betroth your sister to Qin Huang, do you know about Qin Huang's situation?"

"I definitely don't know." Ouyang Teng's slender eyes widened and he reprimanded: "You are not allowed to speculate on your uncle like this!"

Ouyang Jinyu lowered her eyes and said, "I want to discuss with Uncle about dealing with the Qin family, will Daddy go with me?"

"I'm going." Ouyang Teng's face was livid, and he said angrily, "I want to tell you, uncle, that the entire Qin family is nothing but livestock!"

The father and son immediately went out of the house and rode straight to Chang'an City. The summer wind was blowing, and they arrived at the city gate before they knew it.

At this time, the city gate was closed under curfew, and the officers and soldiers guarding the gate were ordered to guard. Anyone who entered or exited would be interrogated. When they saw the token from the palace held by Ouyang Jinyu, they would be let in.

The token was given by Murongjuan, the seventh princess, so that Ouyang Jinyu can enter the palace to see her and Wang Jieyu.

In the dark of night, the sound of heavy beating with sticks was heard from the main courtyard of Ouyang Mansion in Chang'an. The eight servants who were beaten, male and female, all gagged their mouths with cloth, and their buttocks were beaten severely. The pain was unbearable. But he couldn't make a sound.

The hall of the main courtyard was brightly lit, and Ouyang Yue, who was wearing regular clothes with dark bags under his eyes, was full of anger, pacing back and forth in the hall like ants on a hot pot, and sighed up to the sky from time to time.

A middle-aged man in a gray shirt sat on the seat with an anxious expression on his face, silent.

The servant came in and said in a timid voice: "Master, Hao Er and the members of Hao Er's family passed out."

Ouyang Yue glared and shouted: "Splash them with water to wake them up, and then beat them hard, just take a breath!"

In a short while, the eight servants were beaten until their ears and eyes bleed, and half their lives were thrown away.Ouyang Yue refused to let them go, and he still beat them severely.

When Ouyang Teng and Ouyang Jinyu entered the mansion and arrived at the main courtyard, what they saw was the scene where the servants were about to be beaten to death.

Ouyang Teng asked suspiciously, "What did these people do to be punished at midnight?"

Ouyang Jinyu took a few glances under the moonlight, and the eight people were all children of Ouyang's family.

After the housekeeper Liu Damang greeted him and saluted, he said in a low voice: "They helped Da Furen hide the letters from the officials to the master, and even stole the letters from the master's study."

Liu Da is the eldest brother of Lintong Zhuangzi Liu San.
