Shen Ningning quietly put her ear to the ears and eavesdropped.

 She has rarely seen her father lose such a temper.

 In the study room.

 Xie Mingxu, Xie Mingan and Xu Jingxi, three straight-backed figures, kneeling on the ground.

 All of them had tense expressions and pursed thin lips.

Mr. Xie Erye was sitting on a chair nearby, with a calm and sharp look on his face.

 Behind the table, Xie Suzhi put his hands behind his hands and paced back and forth angrily.

“There are three of you, two court officials, and one is about to attend the autumn palace. What’s the difference between fighting with a dandy in a brothel and ruining your future?”

 As the eldest brother, Xie Mingxu bowed his head silently.

“Father, please calm down. It’s because I failed to discipline my two younger brothers.”

Xie Mingan immediately said: "It has nothing to do with my elder brother. He was just passing by and thought I was being bullied. In the final analysis, it's my fault. I shouldn't have taken my third brother to the brothel."

Xu Jingxi resolutely took all the responsibilities on himself.

“Uncle, father, in the final analysis, this matter is my fault. I was the one who started the fight with Wu Ke. Otherwise, the following things would not have happened. It is my fault for being reckless and impulsive.”

 Er Master Xie finally spoke, he frowned and sighed.

"Now that I have taken action, it is enough to beat the person to death. It will be difficult to explain to him if he is beaten half to death."

Xie Suzhi glanced at his younger brother coldly: "If you educate them like this, you will really kill someone in the future. Do you still have time to regret it?"

Mr. Xie’s helpless smile had a hint of the high-spiritedness of his youth.

"Brother, our children have always been aware of it. What's more, you also know Mingyuan's temperament. If you don't really offend him, why would he take action?"

 “Why are you fighting with Wu Ke?” Xie Suzhi looked at Xu Jingxi.

 From last night till now, Xu Jingxi has not said why he hit her.

He was beaten so hard that half of his hair was bald, and it was said that all his front teeth were knocked out.

Xu Jingxi was silent for a moment, and all the men in the room stared at him.

 After a while, he said: "I was passing by the door and heard Wu Ke insulting Miss Ye's family."

 Suddenly.

 The door to the study room was pushed open from the outside.

Shen Ningning broke in: "What? How dare he do this? Third brother, good fight!"

 Xie Mingan immediately raised his head: "I hit him too!"

 “You’re doing a pretty good job, stinky second brother.”

Xie Mingan immediately smiled proudly, but when he saw Xie Suzhi's cold eyes, he lowered his head again.

Xie Suzhi was so stern just now. When facing his daughter, his whole face was filled with good things.

“Ning Ning, daddy wants to discuss with your brothers how to handle this matter. You should go back and take a rest first.”

Xie Mingxu nodded: "Yes, after the discussion is over, I will take you out to fly the kites."

Xie Suzhi's face darkened.

 Still in the mood to fly paper kites? Mr. Wu is very difficult to deal with. He might have to fight in front of the emperor.

 But in front of Shen Ningning, Xie Suzhi did not refute Xie Mingxu's words.

However, Shen Ning would rather not leave.

 She asked Xu Jingxi how Wu Ke humiliated Ye Changyi.

 After Xu Jingxi said everything, the rest of the Xie family became cold at the same time.

"What a bastard. A good man doesn't have ambitions in all directions, but he actually thinks about how to humiliate his wife who has not yet married?" Mr. Xie clenched his fists.

 He can't stand such scum.

Xie Mingan said: "It is absolutely right for the third brother to take action. Besides, Miss Ye family and Ning Ning are close friends."

"It's just that now the Wu family has seized the opportunity. At that time, only the third brother heard what Wu Ke talked about Ye Changyi. Those young masters who ate with Wu Ke usually relied on the Wu family for support, let alone Testify that Wu Ke said that."

 This is the root of the problem.

Wu Ke now bites the bullet, saying that he was drinking and partying with friends in a good manner, but Xu Jingxi broke in and beat him up.

In the morning, Xie Suzhi arranged for the doctor to go to the Wu Mansion to check on the patient's condition. Mr. Wu kept shouting that he wanted to send Xu Jingxi to jail.

Shen Ningning's watery eyes rolled: "They are unwilling to testify because they are afraid of the Wu family's revenge. It doesn't matter. We won't look for them for the time being, but we can look for those brothel girls!"

Of the girls who were around Wu Ke at that time, there was always someone willing to testify.

 After all, brothels are open to the outside world for business, and they cannot afford to offend anyone. After this incident, they put up a sign of closure this morning.

 The madam must be scared and want to avoid the limelight.

Shen Ningning thought of a good plan and immediately made arrangements.

 Finally, she took Xie Mingxu, Xie Mingan and Xu Jingxi and went straight to the Yamen.

After they left, Xie Suzhi sighed heavily.

 A bit worried.

Mr. Xie stood up and said, "Brother, you don't need to worry. The children will be able to handle this when they grow up."

"Do you still remember that when we were young, we also fought together. The prince of King Pingbei humiliated our mother, so I fought with him. You happened to come to see me at the Chinese Academy of Sciences and saw me fighting and being surrounded by them. , didn’t you get off your horse immediately and run over to help me?”

 Speaking of the past, Mr. Xie laughed even harder.

 That year he was sixteen and Xie Su was nineteen.

 The two brothers defeated all the 62 guards brought by Prince Pingbei.

Later, Mr. Xie dragged me to kneel in the ancestral hall.

 But in the ancestral hall, the two of them smiled at each other despite having wounds on their faces.

I feel like the beating was really enjoyable and I don’t regret it at all.

Thinking of the past, Xie Suzhi pursed his lips: "I was young and energetic back then."

"They are the same now." Mr. Xie said, "What's more, with Ning Ning here, this matter will be easier to handle than the trouble we got into back then."

 They almost lame one of Prince Pingbei's legs.

 Later, it was Mr. Xie who came forward together with the emperor to smooth the matter over.

 After King Pingbei left Beijing, the two families did not have any contact with each other for so many years.

at the same time.

 Ye Changyi got off the carriage and entered the gate of Wu Mansion.

She was led all the way to Wu Ke's room by the maid.

Mrs. Wu was wiping tears beside the bed. She saw Wu Ke with three circles of bandages wrapped around his head. His face was pale and his lips were black.

"Shang Yi is here?" Mrs. Wu choked up: "You kid, you have a good heart. No wonder our Kerr told us not to tell you before he fell into coma, for fear of worrying you."

Ye Changyi pursed her lips: "It's such a big fuss. If you don't want me to know, I will know too. Mrs. Wu, why on earth did he fight with Xu Jingxi?"

"How do we know? I heard that Xu Jingxi rushed in, smashed our Kerr's head, and shouted, let our Kerr stay as far away from you as possible."

Mrs. Wu's eyes flickered and she asked tentatively: "What is your relationship with Xu Jingxi?"

 Ye Changyi: “My classmate.”

At this moment, Wu Ke woke up. He saw Ye Changyi, a little weak: "Shangyi, you, why are you here? I don't want you to see me so weak. You go back. When I get better, I will come again." Look for you."

 Ye Changyi's eyes were full of doubts.

"Wu Ke, tell me honestly, there are rumors outside that Xu Jingxi attacked you because of your dissolute behavior, is that true?"

Ye Changyi couldn't think of a reason. She could only think that Xu Jingxi knew that she and Wu Ke were getting engaged, and then saw him having fun in a brothel, so she attacked him.

Before Wu Ke could say anything, Mrs. Wu hurriedly said: "How is that possible? We Ke'er only went there to listen to music. He likes elegance. You know this."

"Yes, Chang Yi," Wu Ke nodded: "All the young masters who are traveling with me can vouch for me. How do I know why Xu Jingxi hit me?"

Hearing this, Ye Changyi said nothing and did not stay long.

 She wanted to go to Xie's Mansion to ask first.

 Mrs. Wu walked her to the door.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in Ye Changyi's mind, and she took off the gemstone bracelet from her wrist.

"Mrs. Wu, I heard that this is something Wu Ke values ​​​​very much. Take a look. Do you recognize this? Could this be the reason for Xu Jingxi's conflict with him?"

Mrs. Wu took a look and shook her head: "This bracelet is so ordinary. I'm afraid it doesn't even cost fifty taels. How can we, Keer, argue with him over such a thing? However, I heard that Xu Jingxi was very poor at first. He might I would really be anxious for such a poor thing."

 Ye Changyi could no longer hear what she said next.

Ye Changyi's face was cold, staring at the so-called ancestral bracelet from Mrs. Wu's natal family, and a sneer slowly escaped from the corners of her lips.

"I see!"

 She said how could Xu Jingxi, such an honest person, do something.

Wu Ke, this smooth-tongued person, deceived her!
