Chapter 35: Stupid
Xu Gujing, who was lying on the bed, immediately started crying when he saw Xu Fu coming back. He was very 'weak' and wanted to struggle.
Xu Fu was originally a little dissatisfied with Xu Gujing. The moment he saw him getting up and some beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, his dissatisfaction turned into anger.
There was anger at Xu Gujing being beaten like this, and there was also anger that the attacker did not take him, the nephew of the prime minister in the censor's eyes, into consideration!
When beating a dog, it depends on the owner, right?
"What's going on? Tell me in detail."
When Xu Gujing heard this, he felt happy. It was no wonder that he pressed on the injured soft rib just now, suppressed the strange color in his eyes, and began to slowly tell what happened.
"Did Qin Yu really say that?" After Xu Gujing finished what happened, Xu Fu asked with some disbelief.
No one else! It was Xu Gujing who said that Qin Yu didn’t even pay attention to him as the censor Zhongcheng!
"Seriously! Uncle! If I hadn't reported your name and he was so arrogant, how could my nephew be beaten so badly by him?" Xu Gujing said in pain. In order to show his authenticity, he continued: "
The fellow villagers who sent my nephew back, as well as the people present in Qingfeng Tower, can all provide evidence to my nephew!"
Xu Gujing's words were so conclusive that Xu Fu also believed him.
But there are still some doubts in my heart!
If the Qin family were placed in the era of Mr. Qin, it would be reasonable for Qin Yu to be so arrogant and domineering. However, Mr. Qin has passed away long ago, and Qin Liefeng also died in the battle last year. Even if Qin Liefeng did not die in the battle, Qin Liefeng would not dare to be there.
Act arrogantly in front of him.
The imperial censor monitors hundreds of officials and reports on the news!
The general would rather offend His Majesty than these censors!
How could Qin Yu dare to be so arrogant and domineering now that he has no backing?
"What was the cause of the conflict between you and Qin Yu?"
Just now, Xu Gujing only said that he had a dispute with Qin Yu over some trivial matter. The reason was that he couldn't stand Qin Yu's arrogance, so he said a few words, and then he was beaten by Qin Yu, even if it was reported to Xu Fu.
The name is not easy to use either.
Now it seems that the cause of the matter is definitely not that simple!
It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages!
But by playing such a little trick in front of Xu Fu, Xu Gujing's calculations were still wrong.
"Uncle, my nephew is talking about..."
Xu Gujing wanted to insist that the facts were just as he said, but he was defeated by Xu Fu's majestic eyes.
"Uncle, nephew, actually... there is something unexplained, it is... that..."
"Tell the truth!" Xu Fu said in a nonchalant manner. It seemed to have no lethality, but it was quite shocking in Xu Gujing's heart.
"Uncle, my nephew and his fellow villagers went to Qingfeng Tower to get together. Qin Yu and the others were beside my nephew. My nephew couldn't stand the compliments given to him by Qin Yu's friends, so he just said a few words. Nothing serious happened between the two parties.
There was an argument, and after my nephew realized that the person being praised was Qin Yu, he made some guesses about Qin Liefeng..."
"What kind of speculation?" Xu Fu felt that this was where things went wrong.
"My nephew, my nephew said...his father is..." Xu Gujing hesitated. After he came back, he also wanted to understand the serious relationship between it, so when he told Xu Fu, he deliberately concealed it.
Xu Fu's eyes widened, and Xu Gujing was frightened. He didn't dare to hesitate anymore and said bravely: "My nephew said that his father led thousands of people to die for personal revenge. He is a bit...a bit unworthy of his morality!"
Xu Fu's face hardened, and when he looked at his nephew lying on the bed, he wanted to slap him.
"Whether Qin Liefeng was seeking personal revenge or trying to seize the opportunity, it is already a certainty. When will it be your turn to comment? Even if Qin Liefeng was seeking personal revenge, it was an upright conspiracy, Your Majesty.
We have already confirmed what happened behind his back. Even if you talk about it, you are only talking about it in private. If you still dare to talk nonsense outside, are you questioning His Majesty's judgment?"
Xu Gujing quickly said that he did not dare. He was beginning to panic in his heart, fearing that his uncle Xu Fu would be displeased because of this.
"What scholars pay attention to is etiquette, integrity, wisdom and trust! The dead are the most important. You openly 'slandered' an ancestor on that occasion, and you said this in front of Qin Yu. If Qin Yu didn't beat you, he would be a son of man in vain!
"
Xu Gujing swallowed his saliva and suddenly felt that complaining to his uncle was asking for trouble.
His uncle doesn't feel like he's standing next to him anymore!
After Xu Fu said this, he waited for Xu Gujing to respond to him. After waiting for a while, he didn't see any expression from Xu Gujing, but just lowered his head.
"Hmph! Idiot!"
Seeing Xu Gujing's state, Xu Fu couldn't help but cursed.
He felt like what he just said was in vain!
Xu Gujing suddenly raised his head. Xu Fu scolded him, and he still used the word "idiot". He felt that his uncle still loved him!
"Uncle, how should we deal with Qin Yu?"
Xu Fu narrowed his eyes slightly, and a flash of cold light and a sword flashed across Xu Gujing's face.
"Uncle, what my nephew said is wrong...isn't it right?" Xu Fu's expression made Xu Gujing stutter and ask.
"Crack!"
Xu Fu slapped Xu Gujing on the head, and sighed helplessly.
I thought that after telling Xu Gujing this way, this kid would understand something, even if it was just a little bit, he wouldn't be so angry. Some things can be taught. After all, Xu Gujing has not yet been involved in officialdom!
After hearing Xu Gujing's question about how he wanted to take revenge on Qin Yu, Xu Fu was really furious!
Apart from being good at studying, is this idiot such an idiot in other aspects?
"Idiot! Is that kid Qin Yu a thing? I am a third-grade censor, Zhongcheng, helping you deal with a junior who has no elders in the family and no official position?"
"Or do you think I have nothing to do, so why don't you write a memorial and refer to Qin Yu's one?"
"So should we use the big to bully the small, or should we use our official position to suppress others?"
Xu Fu angrily scolded Xu Gujing, "They are not of the same level. How will he end up with face?"
For a moment, he felt completely disappointed with Xu Gujing!
Even if he is a dandy, he will not be like Xu Gujing at this moment!
"My nephew knows his mistake! I hope my uncle will forgive me!" Seeing that Xu Fu was really angry, Xu Gujing quickly admitted his mistake.
Xu Fu is not only his relative who stays here, but also his supporter when he enters the officialdom. If he is annoyed now, then he will not look forward to it in the future!
"Acknowledge your mistake? I think you don't know what's going on!" Regarding Xu Gujing's admission of mistake, Xu Fu didn't feel that he had the desired attitude at all.
"Since you are injured, you should stay at home and recuperate! I will come to see you in more than a month! This will save you from going out and making mistakes again!"
Xu Gujing felt weak all over. He was grounded!
"Yes, please follow your uncle's instructions!"
"Think about it carefully during this period. Qin Yu's two Buddhist verses are quite chewy! And the name of the Xu family is not something that can be thrown under someone's feet!"
