The first volume of pearl curtains rolls up the western mountain rain at dusk Chapter 43 All of This is Ours
When it was almost dark, Xiahou Zhuo returned to the academy. Several soldiers helped him go to Li Diudiu's residence. Not finding anyone, Xiahou Zhuo became obviously panicked. He kept persuading himself that Li Chi must have gone to look for his master.
It would be fine if Li Diudiu was going to look for the Taoist priest Changmei, as Xiahou Zhuo knew that Li Diudiu had five hundred taels of silver on him. But then he thought again, Li Diudiu knew that he would get into trouble now and would definitely not go to look for the Taoist priest Changmei, as he would be afraid of implicating his master.
Where can Li Diudiu go?
Xiahou Zhuo was so anxious that sweat appeared on his forehead. The soldiers became anxious too when they saw how anxious he was, but they were even more confused. They were not even familiar with the academy, so how could they help?
"Yan Qingzhi, yes! Yan Qingzhi!"
Xiahou Zhuo suddenly thought of something and turned to look at the soldiers: "Brothers, come with me to find someone first. I can't move easily, so if it's a long way, I'll need your help."
Naturally, those people would not shirk their responsibility and followed Xiahou Zhuo to Yan Qingzhi's courtyard. Xiahou Zhuo left them behind because he was worried that if Li Diudiu was not with Yan Qingzhi, they would be like looking for a needle in a haystack in Jizhou City.
He walked very fast, and the wound on his chest began to hurt. After all, it was such a serious injury only a few days ago, how could it be possible to heal completely.
When he arrived at the gate of Yan Qing's courtyard, Xiahou Zhuo's forehead was already covered with sweat, and his face was pale because of the pain, but he gritted his teeth and held on without making a sound.
"Mr. Yan!"
Xiahou Zhuo shouted at the door, his voice trembling slightly.
He felt extremely regretful and blamed himself. He had forgotten about Li Diudiu while recuperating in the military camp. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was not a human being. But he initially thought that Li Diudiu would be safe in the academy. He just forgot that he had to take a field holiday at this time every year.
The door of the courtyard creaked open. Li Diudiu poked his head out and looked outside. When he saw Xiahou Zhuo, he smiled, "It's you."
The moment Xiahou Zhuo saw Li Diudiu, his eyes turned slightly red. He stood there panting, and after a moment he suddenly laughed and cursed, "You scared me to death ."
Then he leaned back and fell down with a thud.
Yan Qingzhi's bedroom.
He gave his bed to the unconscious Xiahou Zhuo. He opened the front of Xiahou Zhuo's clothes and found that the gauze on his chest had seeped out blood, and it was obvious that the wound had burst again.
Yan Qingzhi took out the medicine box and replaced the medicine for Xiahou Zhuo, and bandaged the wound again. After he was done, he reached out and touched Xiahou Zhuo's forehead. There was no fever, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Yan Qingzhi knew very well that if such an injury did not cause fever, it would not be a serious problem. But once fever started, even the best doctor would find it difficult to deal with.
After waiting for about a moment, Xiahou Zhuo woke up. After opening his eyes, he raised the corner of his mouth and said, "It hurts so much."
Li Diudiu let out a sigh of relief.
Yan Qingzhi looked at Xiahou Zhuo and said coldly, "What are you doing back here?"
Xiahou Zhuo said: "I'm not looking for you."
Yan Qingzhi looked at Li Diudiu again, sighed and said, "Just one bed."
Li Diudiu said seriously: "I always sleep on the floor, sir, this has nothing to do with me."
Yan Qingzhi: “…”
When the soldiers saw that Xiahou Zhuo was not seriously injured, they left immediately. Only three men, big, medium and small, were left in the room. If it were Li Diudiu and Yan Qingzhi, they would have a lot to talk about. If it were Li Diudiu and Xiahou Zhuo, they would also have a lot to talk about. However, when these three were together, the atmosphere became particularly awkward.
After a while, Xiahou Zhuo thought that he should ease the atmosphere, so he looked at Yan Qingzhi and said, "Mr. Yan, if you think it's unfriendly for me to occupy this bed, I can pay some rent for it."
Before Yan Qingzhi could speak, Li Diudiu took over and said, "This is not good. It will be bad for Mr. Yan's reputation if it gets out. He doesn't rent out the house, but rents out the bed, and rents it to a man..."
Xiahou Zhuo said: "You go stand aside..."
Yan Qingzhi asked Xiahou Zhuo, "Since you feel unfriendly, why don't you leave? You also live in your own courtyard. Even if you don't leave the academy, you can still go back to your own courtyard."
Xiahou Zhuo said: "This bed already has my blood..."
Yan Qingzhi said: "Remove the word bone!"
Xiahou Zhuo said: "Whether you remove it or not, it is still my blood. The bed with my blood is my bed. Look at the gauze, it is my gauze even if it is changed and stained with my blood..."
Yan Qingzhi looked down and saw that the blood on his hands had not been washed off, so he was shocked.
Xiahou Zhuo quickly explained: "I don't want it, I really don't want it."
Yan Qingzhi nodded and thought to himself that it was okay.
He looked at the sky outside. It was time to eat again. Every time he went to get food, it was difficult to bring back food for him and Li Diudiu. After all, Li Diudiu ate so much. Now with another person, he was afraid that he couldn't carry so much by himself.
However, the academy has a rule that disciples are not allowed to eat in the teachers' cafeteria. Although this rule is not rigid, Yan Qingzhi does not want people to gossip.
"Li Chi, come with me to get the food."
Yan Qingzhi went to wash his hands and said, "Let him lie down by himself."
Xiahou Zhuo deliberately stroked the pillow on the bed and said, "Just go ahead. I have my little bed to keep me company."
Yan Qingzhi's face turned pale.
Xiahou Zhuo: "Ugh..."
When he thought that this was the bed where Yan Qingzhi slept, he actually vomited.
Yan Qingzhi's face turned dark.
In the teaching cafeteria, Li Diudiu was standing outside the door waiting. Yan Qingzhi took the first batch and went back to get the second batch. Everyone in the cafeteria laughed, and because they laughed, Yan Qingzhi felt that he should blush out of politeness.
"We brought more food today. How many do you really have, Mr. Yan..."
A chef in a cafeteria wanted to make a joke, but when he saw Li Diudiu standing at the door, he was embarrassed to say the last part of the joke, "pig".
Yan Qingzhi pointed at Li Diudiu and said, "At first, I raised a small one, and now I have a big one for no apparent reason."
The chef asked quietly, "The small ones are already so greedy, shouldn't the big ones be able to eat as well?"
Yan Qingzhi said: "That's not the case. The big one can't eat as much as the small one. Even if I and the big one were added together, I can't eat as much as the small one."
Li Diudiu heard everything while standing at the door, but he didn't feel embarrassed at all. If he was able to eat something like this, could he not eat it just because he felt embarrassed?
At the same time, in a casino about two or three miles away from the academy, Sun Biehe was drinking in a small house in the backyard of the casino. He did not dare to go home. If he went home, the people from Prince Yu's mansion would not only cause trouble for him, but his father would also beat him half to death.
Sun Rugong came jogging from the front, looked back when he reached the door, and then knocked gently.
"Brother, it's me."
The door creaked open as someone quickly opened it from the inside. Sun Biehe pulled Sun Rugong into the room and slammed the door shut.
Sun Biehe asked anxiously, "How is home?"
"Brother, that..."
Sun Rugong said hesitantly, "I told you not to be angry... Uncle has already announced that he will expel you from the family, saying that from now on your life or death has nothing to do with the Sun family. Not only that, Uncle also said that if anyone in the Sun family sees you, they can kill you without guilt."
Sun Biehe kicked the table away: "Fuck you!"
Sun Rugong said, "Don't be angry... Uncle, Uncle has no choice. The people in Prince Yu's mansion are already investigating this matter."
Sun Biehe said: " Prince Yu is not in Jizhou, who in the palace would ask about it? The princess and concubines all wished that Xiahou Zhuo would die, but they were just pretending. My father was so scared that he kicked me out of the house..."
He looked at Sun Rugong: "You didn't plead for me? What about your father? Didn't your father plead for me?"
Sun Rugong said, "I begged, I knelt down and begged, my father also begged, but my uncle was angry, no matter who begged, it was useless. My uncle has already asked for the family tree and crossed your name out of it."
"ah!"
Sun Biehe's face turned pale: "He actually came for real!"
Sun Rugong said, "Brother, you'd better hide here first. Although the Prince Yu's Mansion won't really make things difficult for our family, the Princess and the Concubine will pretend to stand up and say that it has nothing to do with them, so...so you must not be seen by others."
Sun Biehe nodded: "I didn't expect that you would stand on my side in the end."
He patted Sun Rugong on the shoulder and asked, "I asked you to find some money. Did you find it?"
Sun Rugong took out a purse from his clothes and handed it to Sun Biehe, saying, "I stole these from my mother. I have nowhere to ask for them. If I ask my father for them, he will definitely ask why I need money. Although it's a little less, only a few dozen taels, it will be enough for you to hide for a while if you use it sparingly, big brother."
He looked outside and said in a low voice, "Uncle will calm down sooner or later. You are still the eldest son and grandson of the Sun family. I will go back first. Brother, you can rest assured and recuperate."
Sun Biehe nodded and said, "Remember, if anything happens, please inform me as soon as possible."
Sun Rugong responded and went out. He went out from the front door of the casino, made a small circle and returned to the back door of the casino. His father Sun Qiu had been waiting there for a while.
Seeing Sun Rugong coming over, Sun Qiu immediately asked, "Is he there?"
Sun Rugong said, "Inside, I just gave him some silver and told him that his uncle kicked him out of the house. He dared not go anywhere for a while."
Sun Qiu said, "This is a chance for our line to rise. Your uncle has lost face in the clan because of this incident. Get rid of Sun Biehe and then squeeze your uncle out. From now on, you will be the eldest grandson of the Sun family."
Sun Rugong nodded vigorously: "I know, Dad!"
Sun Qiu waved his hand: "Go and do your work."
The four or five strong men around him nodded and climbed over the wall into the backyard. Soon, a wailing sound was heard from the backyard. The owner of the casino knew what had happened, but did not dare to intervene. Even if the Sun family was not a first-class family in Jizhou City, he could not afford to offend them.
He pretended not to know about this.
A moment later, the men came out from the backyard, walked quickly to Sun Qiu, leaned over and said, "Master, the man has been eliminated."
Sun Qiu nodded and said, "Go and give two thousand taels of silver to the owner of the casino and tell him. He knows what to do."
One of the men nodded, took the banknote Sun Qiu gave him, turned around and went back.
Sun Qiu smiled and said, "Son, the method you came up with is really good. First, you forced your uncle to kick his son out of the house, and then killed him. I originally thought it was a disaster for the Sun family, but now it seems to be a good opportunity for you and me... Hahaha, not bad."
Sun Rugong quickly said, "It was all taught by my father."
Sun Qiu laughed loudly and said, "Let's go home. I will find a way to overthrow your uncle as soon as possible. The Sun family's huge fortune will all belong to us."
