Chapter 678: One Shot and Two Scattered

Fifth Brother Chen stared at Lan Ziyi, secretly filing his two rows of teeth, he was silent for a long time after hearing Lan Ziyi's words, others thought he was thinking about words, only Fifth Brother Chen himself knew that he was afraid of Lan Ziyi's voice and couldn't move for a long time. However, Lan Ziyi was not in a hurry, he seemed to have a smile on his face, and just looked at Fifth Brother Chen quietly.

In the end, Fifth Brother Chen broke the silence with a dry cough, he opened his mouth to speak, with a little phlegm in his throat, and his voice was a little whimpering, he said:

"Master Hou, I said it very clearly, I don't believe what you say, many officials have already told us this before."

Lan Ziyi said:

"I'm not an official master, I'm different from them, don't you even believe me?"

At this time, Fifth Brother Chen immediately replied in his heart:

"Definitely not convinced."

But he couldn't say anything, the young man in front of him made him unpredictable, he didn't dare to deliberately offend this person, and now he began to miss the time when he confronted Tao Zhuhu before, how easy it was at that time.

There was silence for a moment before Fifth Brother Chen said:

"Master Hou, it's not that I don't believe you, but the parents and officials on the heads of our little people all said so before, but after they finished speaking, there was no follow-up, enough to close the door and scrape the money from us, these people left, we have been deceived and afraid."

Lan Ziyi nodded when he heard this, and he said:

"I understand this, if I were you, I wouldn't trust anyone after being deceived for so long. Fifth brother, you can trust me, I assure you that we have enough time to believe each other.

It's just that Fifth Brother, we are here to seek justice from these usurers with a conscience, and it has nothing to do with the imperial court, so it's not right for you to shout and kill the imperial court. ”

Chen Wu finally couldn't help it when he heard this, he snorted coldly and said:

"Does it matter if the court is fine? The imperial court allowed the dog officials and wealthy clans to oppress us good citizens, and after the oppression was over, they would collect taxes from us, and the court would not let us scold him out loud when he did this? Where did Wei Hou see that the life of the people such as me was so unbearable that it had nothing to do with the imperial court? ”

Lan Ziyi smiled, and he said:

"The imperial court's failure to picket corrupt officials in time is a dereliction of duty, and when I return to Beijing to worship the saints, the emperor will definitely make decisions for the people."

Fifth Brother Chen retorted:

"Officials protect each other, even if the emperor is wise, the dog officials under him are monolithic, how can the emperor make decisions for us?"

Lan Ziyi said:

"Officials form parties with each other for personal gain, that is, the sages of the officials read the dog's belly, I am not those dog officials, I am not with them."

Then Lan Ziyi raised his left arm and put it on the table and leaned forward, he squinted slightly at Chen Wu, and he said:

"And fifth brother, you are not a common man who farms and pays the emperor's grain, you are just a country pawn."

Lan Ziyi pressed forward, Fifth Brother Chen leaned back unconsciously, he couldn't find any suitable words to answer Lan Ziyi for a while, but fortunately, some of the young adults who came with him stood up for him and said:

"What does Master Hou mean by this? You said that the fifth brother is not a farmer, but he has done so many things that we don't dare to do, how can we get together to fight against corrupt officials without him? ”

As soon as this person spoke, everyone standing with him shouted loudly, and the Tao brothers standing behind Lan Ziyi were extremely unhappy, and Tao Zhuhu pointed to the opposite side and scolded:

"What kind of thing are you, and you dare to interject when my young master is talking?"

When the person over there heard the voice, he immediately became irritable, and the person who spoke just now pointed at Tao Zhuhu and scolded back:

"The surname is Tao, you keep saying that you want to make decisions for our people and avenge us, but now I have to be asked if I am qualified to say a word? You're going to rely on your own boss to avenge us? ”

As soon as these words came out, all the people around them were set on fire, these people showed their arms, howled and leaned towards the table, and the Tao brothers and horse farm guys standing behind Lan Ziyi were not to be outdone, and immediately leaned forward, and the crowd on both sides scolded more and more fiercely, seeing that the two sides were about to fight.

At this moment, in the center of the storm, a crisp knocking sound penetrated the surrounding noise and entered everyone's ears, and everyone looked down to see that it was Lan Ziyi who was methodically banging on the table with his two finger joints. It is very strange, in such a chaotic scene, no one can hear the crying, but the sound of Lan Ziyi knocking on the table is heard by everyone, and the most important thing is that the sound is not very loud

Seeing that everyone's attention was attracted, Lan Ziyi finally stopped tapping, he raised his head and looked around, and then he

Said to the peach tiger:

"Big brother, what they said is good, we are here to call the shots for the people, and it is rude for him to interject, but it can't be said that people are not qualified to speak."

Tao Zhuhu bowed his head when he heard this, and retreated slightly, and the horse farm guys who stood for Lan Ziyi also retreated together, and the people over there saw Lan Ziyi reprimanding their eldest brother in person, and they also felt that Lan Ziyi was very face-saving, so they also retreated, and a riot subsided.

Lan Ziyi smiled at Fifth Brother Chen across the table:

"It seems that the fifth brother and the people still refuse to believe me. It can't be helped, our time is still too short. I think everyone's liver is a little hot today, and it is not appropriate for everyone to talk about it anymore. Let's talk about this today, and we'll talk about it after the fifth brother is new to me. ”

Zhu Sixteen, who was standing behind Fifth Brother Chen, heard Lan Ziyi's words as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, and hurriedly came to Chen Wu's side and persuaded him:

"Fifth brother, Master Hou has said so, let's stop making trouble. Let's talk about it later, talk about it later, don't hurt and be angry. ”

Fifth Brother Chen always felt that the other party was unfathomable when he first saw Lan Ziyi, even now he still feels this way, but the reality is far from his imagination, Lan Ziyi's attitude of calming things makes Chen Wu feel that this person is indeed a coward, he secretly suppressed his doubts, he comforted himself, Lan Ziyi is the master who eats with the title of marquis, and there is nothing difficult to deal with.

So Chen Wu got up and said to Lan Ziyi:

"Then Master Hou has to let me see your sincerity, don't let me down!"

With that, Chen Wu turned around and walked away, not entering the crowd behind him. When Zhu Sixteen saw Chen Wu leaving, he wanted to get close to Lan Ziyi and say a few words, but who knew that Lan Ziyi just smiled and waved his hand, and did not mean to let him get closer.

The people who followed Brother Chen Wu left with Chen Wuyi, Lan Ziyi saw that the people on the other side were scattered, and he slowly got up from the stool, he turned around and walked back silently, Tao Zhutu was the first to sink when he saw this, he walked to Lan Ziyi and asked:

"Young Master, do you want to leave it at that? What kind of thing is that Chen Wu, he also deserves to talk to you like this, young master? ”

After Tao Zhutu finished speaking, he didn't ask any further, because he saw the sneer on Lan Ziyi's face, Lan Ziyi turned his face and said to Tao Zhutu:

"The surname Chen talks to me for a small matter, and he wants to make trouble in my name. Once the things I provoked this time get out of control, even my father can't cover me, how can I let that Chen Wu be so arrogant. ”

Lan Ziyi asked Tao Zhulu on the side:

"Since last night, Chen has no arrangements to cook and eat?"

Tao Zhulu replied:

"As far as I know, the people left home just to bring some dry food with them, where did Chen Wu get his savings, how could he cook."

Lan Ziyi nodded when he heard this, and he asked again:

"Who are Chen Wu's subordinates? Who is organizing the people for him? Does the second brother have a list in hand? ”
