It was night. The shadow of the moon was gradually emerging from the eastern mountains. For a time, there was a myriad of splendor. The world was in a state of complete silence. The big red lantern hung high under the eaves of the house, illuminating the new Royal courtyard.
These two days, the Wang Family was in high spirits. Wang Tie-jun and his son watched as the date for the third month approached, it seemed like they didn't have much time left. Let the word spread that Wang Dahong will get married at the Yu Family when the time comes. So these days, they spent all day long making arrangements for the wedding, matchmaking, nailing, preparing lanterns and decorations, adding new furniture, and so on and so forth. Wang Da Hong thought of that charming bride, Yu Xin'er, who was about to become his woman, and felt really proud of her. This person was in a good mood. When he saw anyone, he would be extremely enthusiastic, and it would be as if he would fly a kiss to the servants beside him when he hugged them. I'm going to have a wife soon, and I'll warm her up in advance.
However, on this peaceful and joyous night, the famous young master, Hong Jingtao, hung his head in despair. His heart was like dying embers as he kept silent. Ever since the Tan Family suffered another ruthless blow from the Overlord Flower, Qin Yue'er, he had no choice but to face reality. It was this girl who completely ignored him, leaving him in complete disgrace.
The moment he returned to the Wang Clan, he immediately called for Zenith Light Sword Zhao Jiannan to hang him violently, "Zhao Jiannan, are you stupid? I told you to grab Qin Yue'er at such a good opportunity. Why didn't you attack? Yet, you refuse to listen to my orders? Who do you think you are? Without us, you are nothing! "Do you still want to marry Yang Xiangdie? With your performance —"
Hearing this, Zhao Jiannan's face turned ashen, but he did not say a word. He was no longer a newbie. Three years had passed in the blink of an eye since he had joined the Main Hall. The famous Young Master Hong Jingtao was famous for being the devil of the world. He loved to play with women and perform well. He often performed astoundingly for the wealthy. In order to get the top spot in front of everyone, she did not hesitate to spend a fortune. She only smiled at the stunning fairy Yan Tinfang from Bolan. What was even more shocking was that he actually brought this brothel girl back to Jinanda Hall, completely ignoring worldly rumors and the anger of Commander Hong Beifei.
To put it simply, this person was very daring and had a destructive power. Wherever he went, he would be met with disaster. In order to escape the marriage, the Overlord Flower, Qin Yue'er, was forced to kill herself with a saber. You don't want to look polite and refined on the surface, but you're actually a very cold-blooded and ruthless person. As such, his words could lead to incalculable consequences.
Because he understood, Zhao Jiannan could not help but feel terrified. He knew that his mingmen was in someone else's hands. Yang Xiandie was the woman he loved the most in his life. If Hong Jingtao had interfered because of her, he really couldn't imagine their future. Because of his fear, he felt even more powerless to refute.
When Hong Jingtao saw his expression, he couldn't help but feel cruel and merciless. Yang Love Butterfly is so beautiful, why would she choose a good-for-nothing like you. Because of your high martial arts, you still have to obediently listen to my orders. Since you dare to disobey my orders, then you will have to bear the consequences that you deserve. A cold smile appeared on his lips. His gaze was like a poisonous snake spitting its tongue out as he stared into Zhao Jiannan's eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, "Why, do you not understand what I'm saying? Why did you let Qin Yue'er go? "
Wang Xiuxian, who was standing at the side, saw Hong Jingtao's furious expression and knew that the Young Master was truly enraged this time. He had always been wary of Zhao Jiannan and tolerated him. He was waiting for the day when a volcano would erupt at the right time, an unstoppable event. Actually, he had also pondered for a long time, as if he had understood something. This was because the Zenith Light Sword Zhao Jiannan and Hong Jinglang were of the same age as him and his opponent's Zenith Light Sword was well-known throughout the world. And Hong Jingtao, the son of the famous Northern Marshal, had also suffered a great deal from it. He had lost his light and lived under the light of the Zenith Light Sword.
The son of the Northern Marshal, Hong Jingtao, had always been ambitious and ambitious. He was eager to achieve great achievements in the world. Thus, how could he, who had always been conceited and possessed the heart of a king, endure living under the light of others for a long period of time, with no sense of existence at all? Plus, he was young, and he was of the same age as her, so he couldn't bear to accept this embarrassing fact.
Normally, there was nothing important to do and he didn't show it, but once he was provoked by others, that subconscious spark was immediately ignited. This was an irreconcilable contradiction between him and the natural existence of the Aurora Sword, Zhao Jiannan. As long as Hong Jingtao's personality remained the same, he would never be able to change the conflict between them.
However, the Aurora Sword, Zhao Jiannan, is a man with a simple and honest personality. He has made many meritorious deeds in the past few years in order to achieve greatness. He is a rare good general." As the saying goes, getting something with a thousand men was hard to come by. The important things in the future would depend on his peerless martial arts! Bright right envoy Wang Xiuxian also saw this and felt a desire for talent.
Therefore, at this time, he still stood up and acted as a mediator. "Young Master, please listen to this old man!"
Hong Jingtao had originally wanted to use this opportunity to denounce Zhao Jiannan and thoroughly obliterate his own will, training him to the point of being submissive. However, at this time, Wang Xiuxian suddenly jumped out to help him. For a moment, he felt somewhat uncertain. He thought to himself, "This old fellow shouldn't be finding trouble with me, just what sort of reputation does he have?" And you took his money? However, after thinking for a moment, he still said with a straight face, "Envoy Wang, if you have something to say, you might as well say it out loud. Shocking Waves, stay here and listen! "
Wang Xiuxian held onto his white beard as he said in a gentle voice, "Young master, in fact, Little Zhao also has something to say. I have no choice but to do it!"
Hong Jingtao snorted coldly as he glanced at Zhao Jiannan with his evil eyes and sneered, "Is there anything else he can hide from me? It can't be that you can't kill me, right? "
Wang Xiuxian nodded slightly and then said, "Young Master, see you later. Zhao Jiannan was forced to do this because of helplessness. Have you forgotten what happened in the Pingyuan Palace last time? "
After being reminded like this, Hong Jingtao suddenly thought of that day when Qin Yue-er had no way to force Qin Yue-er to kill herself with a knife, and her blood flowed all over the ground. His heart turned cold as he understood what Wang Xiuxian meant. Qin Yue'er had an unyielding character and could not be measured. If she was forced into a corner, she could do anything. Therefore, it was understandable that Zhao Jiannan would not accept the challenge.
But his tone was not the least bit weak as he said, "Even so, why don't you give up without even trying? I clearly had such a good opportunity just now. Do you think I really like staying in this damn place? He had to watch the expression on Pingyuan Palace every day! If you capture Qin Yue'er, then everything will be fine. We can leave this place immediately! "
Zhao Jiannan said in shame, "Young master, your subordinate deserves to die a thousand times! Please punish us, Young Master! "
Hong Jingtao ignored the gazes of the others and said in a deep voice, "We have always been good at rewards and penalties, and will always reward us for our meritorious service!" There would be absolute punishment! This is a rule that has been in effect for many years. No matter what reason you have, the rule cannot be messed with. Someone! Drag him down here and beat him twenty times! Let him remember that this is the result of him doing something unfavorable! "
At the command of Hong Jingtao, two Discipline Hall disciples came out to beat up the troubled Zhao Jiannan and beat him up twenty times. One could only hear the crackling sounds, as well as Zhao Jiannan's painful and suppressed wails. The sounds entered everyone's ears and heavily pounded their hearts. Everyone had different expressions on their faces, but they couldn't bear to see it happen. However, because of the rules, they could only let it happen.
After Hong Jingtao had finished his execution, he felt that it was boring and waved his hand to order the others to leave. When everyone had gone out, they remained silent and pondered the situation before them. They had already made their plans for the future.
Wang Xiuxian did not leave as he did not get Hong Jingtao's permission to do so. This meant that he still had something important to discuss with him later. He carefully examined Hong Jingbo's expression and saw that he seemed to have calmed down a little. After all, he had been beaten up by Zhao Jiannan just now, so he could vent the anger in his heart. He slowly opened his mouth and said, "Actually, Zhao Jiannan was also helpless in this matter. If I'm not wrong, the last incident caused him a great deal of trouble. I heard that he had been brooding and guilty, and that he had never been able to let it go. He didn't want to hurt Qin Yue'er again, even if he was hurt by her! He was in a dilemma and he couldn't help it! "
After Hong Jingtao's anger subsided, he had recovered his usual intelligence. After a moment of thought, he knew that Wang Xiuxian's words were true and sighed emotionally, "I know what you're talking about! But there were so many eyes watching from top to bottom, and all eyes were on him. If I don't punish him severely, I'll break the rules. How can I control those people down there who are like that and want to take the blame? Today, I want to make a rule that if you make a mistake, you will be punished. Therefore, Zhao Jiannan, in your opinion, shouldn't I beat him up? "
