Chapter 148: I'll Beat Her Up
s heart that the bandits might be the people he knew. However, without evidence, he couldn't directly point it out."Master Xue, please rest assured. I will tell Master Cai Ning about this matter and w..."Greetings, Lord Hu. I am Zhang Liyang, the personal steward of Princess Huqing. "
"What You're a eunuch!"
Juan Bang hadn't spoken yet, but Hu Li beside him covered her mouth in surprise and then carefully examined Zhang Liyang up and down. "It's a pity, why was he castrated"
On the side, Hu Fei was also full of surprise. He didn't know that Zhang Liyang was originally a eunuch, and even a eunuch beside a princess.
But Hu Fei's heart was filled with joy instead. He knew Princess Huaqing's reputation. Back then, when Princess Huaqing went to Feilong City alone, Hu Fei both envied and admired her courage!
"Lulu, be quiet."
Juan's lips twitched. Did this mean that His Majesty knew about it because a eunuch in the palace had found out
Pressing down the unease in his heart, Huan Bang hurriedly bowed to Zhang Liyang, "Manager Zhang, you are too kind. I wonder what brings you here today"
"Haha... it's nothing." Zhang Liyang directly ignored Hu Li's pitying look and turned to Hu Anbang, "This time I came here on behalf of the princess to ask Lord Hu for a person."
"Princess Asking for someone"
Looking at Juan Bang's bewildered face, Zhang Liyang smiled and explained, "I think Lord Hu also knows that His Majesty has appointed the prince to take over as the garrison commander of Feilong City."
"Yes, I know that."
But what Minister Hu doesn't know is the hardship His Highness has endured in the desolate frontier.
Your Highness's tireless efforts for the Great Qin Dynasty are a true blessing to our nation.
Juan Pang's compliment to Zhang Liyang was whether it was polite or sincere, but it didn't matter, as long as Juan Pang acknowledged this.
"Indeed." Zhang Liyang nodded. "But Your Highness is alone, unable to bear the weight of everything. Externally, the rebels are still plotting and scheming; internally, the people have only recently settled down and cannot afford any unrest. It's truly difficult!"
"Alas, I know all that." Juanban sounded sympathetically, "Your Majesty being alone in this desolate borderland must be hard for her."
So, Your Highness needs help. She needs someone to defend Flying Dragon City for Great Yan and suppress the rebel Li!
But as an old scholar, I'm afraid...
"Father, what His Highness wants is not you, but me!"
"Huh What Is that you No!"
Inside, when Juan Bang heard Hu Fei's words, his face changed instantly, and without thinking, he refused outright.
"Sir Hu, why is this"
"There's no reason, it just won't work!" When it came to Hu Fei's issue, this scholar seemed to become particularly stubborn, "Your Highness, if you need me, I will do my duty, but Hu Fei is out of the question!"
"Hu Shilang, this..."
Zhang Liyang didn't expect Hu Anbang to be so resolute. He had said a lot about the consequences, but it was like letting out a fart.
"Master Hu, as a government official and a scholar, shouldn't you prioritize the public good over your own personal interests"
"Now it is not the Prince who needs Hu Fei, but the Da Qian Dynasty who needs him, and it is the common people of this world who need him!"
"Don't flatter me." Juan Bang waved his sleeve, interrupting Zhang Liyang's words. "As I said, if it requires my presence, I will oblige without hesitation, but Hu Fei is out of the question!"
Why
"Why Because the old man only has this one son, is that reason enough!"
Well...
To be honest, this was something Zhang Liyang hadn't expected, but at the same time, he felt a sense of helplessness creeping in.
From an official standpoint, Hu Fei is a man of personal bias, but from the perspective of a father, you can't say he did wrong.
Originally, Zhang Liyang was still thinking about getting a capable assistant for himself, but now it seems that's out of the question.
"Dad!"
Hu Fei saw that Zhang Liyang had the intention of retreating, and immediately shouted. Although he was stunned, deep down he also knew that if this opportunity was not seized again, he might be trapped in the imperial city for life later on.
If you don't agree, I...I will...
"What are you doing" Juan Bang stared at his son, who was speaking with such agitation. "You can't even speak properly, and you run off to the border region You want to die!"
Probably angered by his own father, Hu Fei, desperate for a cure, suddenly pointed to the beautiful woman in the courtyard outside the door and said, "If you don't agree to me, I'll hit her!"
"You dare!"
"Look, I dare you!"
"You..."
Juan Bang pointed at Hu Fei, his whole body trembling slightly. He really wanted to beat up his son, but Juan Bang also knew that when his son was eight years old, he wouldn't be able to beat him.
Seeing the gunpowder between the father and son begin to thicken, before Zhang Liyang could say anything, Hu Li on the side threw a big torch into it at this moment.
"Yeah, I'll tell mother too, shamelessly old!"
"Traitor, traitor!"
Juan Bang was so angry at his own flesh and blood that his face turned black and he trembled all over. Even Zhang Liyang, who was watching from the side, was frightened, afraid that this Minister Juan might die of anger.
Go, go! All of you, get out of my sight. Get as far away from me as possible! As if I, Hu Anbang, had never even met the two of you!
In a fit of rage, Juanbang pointed at Hu Fei and Hu Li, shouting insults. Hu Fei wanted to speak but was pulled away by Hu Li and they ran outside. "Father, you said so yourself! I'll go home now to pack my brother's things. Rest assured, I won't tell Mother about this!"
Well…
Looking at Juan Pang, whose eyes were bulging with anger once again, Zhang Liyang hurriedly bowed and quickly fled the courtyard, while also feeling some regret in his heart, regretting that he had been a bit too rash about this.
Outside the hospital, Hu Li and Hu Fei were waiting for Zhang Liyang. As soon as Zhang Liyang came out, Hu Li pulled Hu Fei forward.
"Well, I'll leave my brother in your hands then."
"Huh What about that Hu Shi Lang..."
"It's okay, it's fine," Hu Li waved her hand. "I'll go apologize to him in a while, and then give him a shoulder rub and some sweet talk, and that'll be the end of it."
"However, I have to say this upfront." Hu Li suddenly took a step forward, the distance between them only half a foot, "My brother is not good with words and doesn't cause trouble, so you can't bully him!"
"My brother can go to the border fort or fight on the battlefield, he can even get hurt, but he can't die!"
"This is the only requirement of my Hu family, and also the last bottom line of my Hu family. Otherwise, even if my Hu family throws everything we have, we will absolutely not let you go!!"
"Rest assured, Miss Hu!" Zhang Liyang solemnly bowed to Hu Li. "I, Zhang Liyang, guarantee that I will treat Hu Fei fairly!"
Looking at Zhang Liyang, Hu Li suddenly reached out and touched his face. She burst into laughter, "Alright, I believe you this time!"
Looking at Hu Li before him, Zhang Liyang twitched the corner of his mouth. He had a feeling that Hu Li was suddenly possessed by Xiao Xiao.nt, "A useless eunuch, leaving the palace and still acting like a dog of the royal family"Bai Wei's words caused Zhang Liyang's body to stiffen slightly, and then a terrifying killing intent erupted f...
