Shi Shouxin invited Zhao Kuangyin and Han Chongyun to drink together in his mansion.
The ten brothers of Yishe were Zhao Kuangyin, Yang Guangyi, Shi Shouxin, Li Jixun, Wang Shenqi, Liu Qingyi, Liu Shouzhong, Liu Tingrang, Han Chongyun and Wang Zhengzhong.
The ten brothers are said to be as close as brothers, but there are also differences in closeness and distance.
Li Jixun, Wang Shenqi and Zhao Kuangyin had a particularly good relationship.
Shi Shouxin got along best with Zhao Kuangyin and Han Chongyun.
Zhao Kuangyin was not the eldest of the ten brothers, but he was a man of loyalty and martial arts, and he maintained close relationships with everyone.
"I'll show you a good show later, brother!"
Shi Shouxin personally filled the glasses of wine for Zhao Kuangyin and Han Chongyun.
Zhao Kuangyin had an ominous premonition in his heart. He always felt that his brother was possessed by a demon.
Although Zhao Kuangyin no longer likes Luo Youdu, a guy who he could kill at will once, has now become his overlord in just one year.
This made Zhao Kuangyin, who was strong-willed and unwilling to be outdone, feel particularly uncomfortable.
But even Zhao Kuangyin had to admit that Luo Youdu's current status was not mixed with any water.
He made his way forward step by step relying on his own abilities.
With today’s achievements, there is nothing to say.
He is an opponent worthy of respect and worth trying your best to surpass.
But his brother didn't care about all this. He was completely hostile to Luo Youdu and didn't consider the difference between them at all.
Zhao Kuangyin even felt that someone was deliberately trying to push Shi Shouxin to the forefront to cause trouble.
No matter whether the trouble can be overcome or not, as long as problems arise, it will affect Luo Youdu.
As for Shi Shouxin's life or death, it's none of their business.
Zhao Kuangyin once advised Shi Shouxin to be more careful.
What he got in return was: "You are all afraid of Luo Youdu, some of you even became traitors, but I am not afraid."
Zhao Kuangyin was also helpless, as he knew very well his brother's ability to lead troops.
How could he ignore his own strengths and try to scheme against someone like Luo Youdu?
Zhao Kuangyin asked: "Is this about Luo Youdu again?"
Shi Shouxin was about to speak.
The housekeeper rushed in in a panic: "It's bad, Alang. Wang Baoxing and his men were captured by the Kaifeng government officials and taken to Kaifeng."
Shi Shouxin's face suddenly changed, and he asked in astonishment: "What's going on? Why did Kaifeng Prefecture get involved?"
The housekeeper said with a sad face, "Wang Baoxing followed A Lang's request and deliberately angered the people of the Imperial Camp. The two sides started to fight, but before they could even start fighting, a group of yamen runners from Kaifeng Prefecture rushed in and took both parties to Kaifeng Prefecture."
How could Zhao Kuangyin and Han Chongyun not know the reason at this point?
It was obvious that he wanted to humiliate Luo Youdu by teaching the people of the Imperial Camp a lesson.
Zhao Kuangyin asked, "Were they all taken to Kaifeng Prefecture?"
The housekeeper said, "Yes, the people on both sides have been taken away."
Han Chongyun asked, "What's the difference between going to Kaifeng Prefecture and entering a wolf's den?"
"Damn it!" Shi Shouxin slammed the wine glass in his hand onto the table and said, "I'm going to Kaifeng Prefecture to get him."
He said this and rushed out of the house without looking back.
Zhao Kuangyin felt a throbbing pain in his head and said, "Let's go together. Old Shi has a bad temper, so don't let anything happen to him."
He followed with big strides and rushed out.
Han Chongyun didn't think much and followed behind.
The three riders were galloping on the street. It was thanks to Guo Rong that he had renovated the streets of Kaifeng this year and expanded the Imperial Street to thirty steps.
Otherwise you're bound to hit someone.
Shi Shouxin led his soldiers to the Kaifeng Prefecture government office, dismounted his horse and rushed in.
He pushed aside the yamen runners who were blocking his way, but he didn't know the way. There were three roads around him, and he didn't know which way to go. He shouted, "Luo Youdu, get out here!"
Hearing the shouting, Luo Youdu was explaining to Kou Xiang in detail the operations of Kaifeng Prefecture.
Song Qi, Kou Xiang, Gu Shixiang and Tang Yu were interviewed.
Gu Shixiang was eliminated.
Song Qi and Tang Yu agreed to their request.
Song Qi entered the Imperial Camp as a clerk, and Tang Yu entered the Law Department of Kaifeng Prefecture as a law officer.
Kou Xiang is knowledgeable and talented, and was able to enter both the Imperial Camp and the Ministry of Law at the same time, which requires extra consideration.
Luo Youdu specially came for another interview for him and found that Kou Xiang was old-fashioned and serious, with a somewhat stubborn personality. He also understood why he was not well-received despite being the top scholar in Central Plains.
People with this kind of personality will find it difficult to succeed no matter how talented they are if no one appreciates and protects them.
He is not easily persuaded, has a bad temper and offends people easily.
Isn't this kind of person just right for working in Kaifeng Prefecture?
Luo Youdu no longer hesitated and arranged Kou Xiang into the Law Department.
In this way, with Kou Xiang as the leader and Tang Yu as the assistant, they can make up for the shortcomings of the Law Department.
Hearing Shi Shouxin's call, Luo Youdu smiled calmly and said, "Wait for me for a moment."
As he spoke, he strode out of the office and came to the yard outside.
Shi Shouxin was being pulled by Zhao Kuangyin.
Seeing Luo Youdu coming out, Zhao Kuangyin took the lead to bow and said, "Hello, sir. My brother drank too much and offended you. Zhao apologizes to you on his behalf."
Luo Youdu returned the greeting and said, "Greetings, Du Yuhou." He glanced at Shi Shouxin and smiled, "It's okay. I understand that Shi Duxiao cares about his subordinates. If it's because of the conflict between the Imperial Camp Division and the Iron Cavalry Battalion, you've come to the wrong place. The Imperial Camp Division is under my command. In order to avoid suspicion, I have someone send them to the Ministry of Justice. The Ministry of Justice is responsible for handling it. If you want to find them, you have to go to the Ministry of Justice."
Upon hearing this, Shi Shouxin turned around and was about to leave.
Luo Youdu crossed his arms over his chest and said, "Master Shi Du, do you think Kaifeng Prefecture is your backyard? You can come and go as you please?"
Shi Shouxin turned around and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Luo Youdu smiled cheerfully and said, "At least apologize to the person you pushed!"
Zhao Kuangyin helped Shi Shouxin.
Shi Shouxin's face was tense, and he bowed to the yamen runners who had blocked his way.
Then he left without looking back.
Luo Youdu watched Shi Shouxin leave, but out of the corner of his eye he saw a figure flash past outside the mansion and he couldn't help but quickly chase after it.
When he arrived outside the courtyard, he saw Fu Qing'er and her maid Feng Zhu.
"Meet Madam Fu Er, Miss Feng Zhu."
Fu Qing'er and Feng Zhu were planning to buy some children's toys in the Imperial Street and bring them to the palace to give to Guo Zongxun.
Just then, he met Shi .
As the first person to oppose Luo Youdu, Shi Shouxin couldn't sleep without scolding Luo Youdu several times a day. Everyone in Kaifeng knew this.
Seeing that the direction he was heading was very similar to Kaifeng Prefecture, Fu Qing'er was worried and couldn't help but follow him.
Seeing that the matter was resolved, Fu Qing'er remembered the news that Luo Youdu had written lyrics in a brothel a few days ago. She became angry and turned around to leave, but she didn't expect that the other party still found out.
Fu Qing'er wanted to leave, but remembering the anger in Shi Shouxin's eyes when he left, she said coldly: "I have something to tell you." Then she walked aside.
Luo Youdu didn't know how he had offended the young lady, but he followed her anyway.
Fu Qing'er said expressionlessly, "Shi Shouxin broke into Kaifeng Prefecture without permission, and you just let him go?"
Luo Youdu smiled and said, "This matter will most likely reach His Majesty's ears. If he doesn't bow down at the end, his life will be ruined."
Fu Qing'er said angrily, "You have good intentions, but people don't buy into your tricks... You might as well feed the dogs with your good intentions."
Luo Youdu did not express his opinion, but said in his heart: "Maybe not."
Then he bowed and said, "Thank you, Madam Fu Er, for your concern!"
