"Young Master, are you comfortable?"

“Um…”

Inside the room, Zhao Yu squinted his eyes and lay on the bed, and the Jingnv gently kneaded his legs.

In recent days, due to the trip to Wancheng, Zhao Yu had been sitting in the carriage for a long time on the way, and Zhao Yu couldn't help feeling his legs sore. Although he just said casually, Jingnu insisted on kneading him. He refused several times, but in the end...

The quiet girl is so good.

Squinted his eyes and enjoying the service of Jingnv, Zhao Yu praised "Good Jingnv" and made Jingnv happily bend his eyes into crescent moons.

"Just these days." He thought for a while and said, "Anyway, there is nothing wrong. I'll take you to the county town to see if there is any suitable one and buy you some jewelry gadgets."

Jingnv shook her head when she heard this and said softly: "I don't need those. As long as I can stay with the young master, I will be very happy..."

Hearing this, Zhao Yu couldn't help but sigh in secret.

Although he knew that a considerable part of Jingnu's feelings for him came from her obedience to Zhou, it cannot be denied that Jingnu is really a well-behaved and gentle girl...girl.

"That's right... Let's go and have a walk together then." Zhao Yu said with his eyes narrowed.

"Yes." The quiet girl smiled sweetly.

And just at a moment, a call from "Young Master" broke the warmth in the house and the sweet smile on the quiet girl's face.

When the smile on Jingnv's face was immediately closed, Cao An ran in. He glared at him without caring about Jingnv's eyes, ran to the bed and whispered: "Young Master, Ruyang Hou Mansion has sent someone."

Zhao Yu, who was enjoying the service of the quiet girl, suddenly opened his eyes and frowned and asked, "Ruyang Marquis Mansion? Is the Ruanan Marquis Mansion where Wang Zhi was taught a lesson that day?"

"That's right!" Cao An nodded and said, "Wang Zhi also came and brought another person, which seemed to be the prince of Ruyang Marquis. Now the two are in the study of the village marquis. My uncle sent someone to notify me that it was the village marquis who asked the young master to come, and said that it was the other party's intention... My uncle asked me to tell the young master that the person who came was not kind."

“…”

He reached out and signaled Jingnv to stop. Zhao Yu sat up on the bed. After thinking for a while, he got off the bed and put on his boots: "Go and go and have a look."

Taking Cao An and Jingnu, Zhao Yu immediately came to his father's study room of the Marquis of Luyang Township.

Walking up the steps and standing outside the threshold for a moment, Zhao Yu took the opportunity to look inside the house.

At this time, his father, Hou of Luyang Township, was sitting behind the desk. Among the two rows of chairs in front of the desk, the first row to the west was Cao Ju, the mansion's chief manager, who was Cao An's uncle.

On the row of chairs near the east, there were two people sitting. Wang Zhi, who Zhao Yu had taught a lesson in public in Zheng Township that day, sat in the second seat. The first one was a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties, probably what Cao An said just now, the prince of the Ruyang Marquis' Mansion.

At this moment, Cao Ju was laughing and talking about something with the two of them.

"Is the person who comes is not good?"

With a snorting, Zhao Yu took Jingnv and Cao An and walked into the study.

Seeing Zhao Yu walking into the study, Cao Ju immediately stood up and walked forward to greet him: "The second young master is here?"

While speaking, he gave Zhao Yu a wink, probably reminding him again.

"Manager Cao."

Zhao Yu nodded, bowed his hand slightly and then walked to the desk and bowed: "Father."

"Um."

The Marquis of Luyang Township nodded and raised his hand to signal to Zhao Yu to the middle-aged man: "Zhu'er, this is the Prince of Ruyang Hou, Zheng Qian and Zheng Zide."

『Uh?』

Zhao Yu turned his head and looked at the Ruyang Marquis Prince Zheng Qian, and asked with a little curiosity: "I wonder what the prince has to do with Yangren County Magistrate Zheng Zixiang?"

The middle-aged man, Zheng Qian, the prince of Ruyang Hou, smiled faintly, and replied with a little arrogant look: "It's my cousin."

"oh oh."

Zhao Yu suddenly realized, and in a daze, he felt a little vigilant, especially when he saw Wang Zhi sitting under Zheng Qian's head sneering at him.

At this time, Cao Ju had already sat down on the second chair to the west and gave the first place to Zhao Yu. Zhao Yu was not polite and sat down on the chair, looking up and down at the Ruyang Marquis Zheng Qian opposite him.

Zheng Qian was also looking at Zhao Yu. After a long time of looking, he looked at the Marquis of Luyang Township, and then turned his eyes back to Zhao Yu, saying, "Zheng came to visit today, hoping to seek justice for our servants..."

After saying that, he pointed to Wang Zhi, who was sitting at his lower head, and said in a deep voice: "A while ago, Guixian sought help from Ruyang County to comfort refugees in the country with work instead of relief. Under the persuasion of Wang County Magistrate, my father not only selflessly contributed some money and grain, sent people to Guixian, but also sent Wang Zhi to help Guixian. However, he never thought that Wang Zhi had suffered unfair treatment from the second son in Guixian... The second son, is there such a thing?"

"This is absolutely nothing." Zhao Yu replied calmly.

Hearing this, Wang Zhi, who sat down on Zheng Qian's head, immediately said: "Boy, you humiliated Wang in public in public that day. Do you dare not admit it today?"

"shut up!"

Before the Luyang Township Hou and Zhao Yu had any attitude, Zheng Qian stopped Wang Zhi first and scolded him: "Don't be rude!"

After saying that, he pointed at Wang Zhi and said to Zhao Yu again: "Second Young Master, don't deny it. Wang Zhi returned to the Marquis' Mansion and told his father and me about the incident..."

Zhao Yu suddenly interrupted: "Including he was doing nothing, and said he was here to assist me in Luyang County on the surface, but he only cared about drinking and having fun in Zhengxiang? Including when he was drunk, he humiliated the refugees in the workplace for no reason and called them untouchables, and they were not worthy of eating food but only waiting to die, which almost led to a major disaster for refugee riots?"

“…”

Zheng Qian, who was interrupted, was silent for a moment before nodding and said, "Yes... He would not and dare not hide anything in front of his father and me."

"Ha." Zhao Yu chuckled when he heard this, then looked at Zheng Qian and said, "But even though he had learned about the incident, the prince still thought that he had received unfair treatment in my Luyang, and wanted to seek justice for him?"

“…”

Zheng Qian frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "No matter what, he is a retainer of my Ruyang Marquis Mansion. The second prince humiliated him in public, so he must give me an explanation."

"oh oh."

When Zhao Yu heard this, he suddenly realized and nodded and said, "I understand. In other words, the Marquis of Ruyang and the Prince felt embarrassed, so the Prince came to raise an army to question the crime."

"..." Zheng Qian opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

As Zhao Yu said, today Zheng Qian, the prince of the Ruyang Marquis's Mansion, brought Wang Zhi to the army to question the crime, mainly because he felt that his family had lost face, or rather, he felt that the Luyang Township Marquis did not give their family face.

He admitted that the cause of this incident was indeed the fault of Wang Zhi, the servant of his mansion, but as the saying goes, beating a dog depends on the owner. Why do you, Zhao Yu, give me some face to the Ruyang Marquis Mansion? In public, in front of so many refugees, a bowl of hot porridge was directly pasted on Wang Zhi's face. He also asked the guards in the mansion to teach Wang Zhi a lesson.

It’s nothing if Wang Zhi was taught a lesson. The key is what should he do if he is faced with the Marquis of Ruyang Township?

Although afterwards, the Marquis of Luyang Township, who learned about this, immediately sent someone to say hello to the Marquis of Ruyang and apologize, so what? Who doesn’t know that Wang Zhi, the manager of his mansion, was taught a lesson by Zhao Yu, the son of the Marquis of Luyang Township, and was kicked out of Luyang County?

However, the truth was revealed by Zhao Yu, and Zheng Qian also felt a little embarrassed.

In fact, he also understood that Wang Zhi did not teach a lesson, but it should be done by their Runan Marquis' Mansion. If Zhao Yu had just driven Wang Zhi away at that time, then Zheng Qian would not have come to raise an army to question the crime today. On the contrary, he would have taught Wang Zhi a lesson, and give Luyang County and an explanation to Zhao Yu, the second son of the Luyang Township Marquis' Mansion.

But Zhao Yu taught Wang Zhi a lesson in public, and this behavior undoubtedly gave Ruyang Hou Mansion very little face.

Not to mention that the titles of the two families are the Township Marquis and the other is the Marquis. Although there is no relationship between superiors and subordinates, everyone knows that the title of the "Hou" is more noble than the "Hou". Zhao Yu did not give him face to the Ruyang Marquis' Mansion so much that Zheng Qian and his father Ruyang Marquis felt the most unhappy.

"Anyway, my father also hopes that the village marquis will give me an explanation on this matter."

After a moment of silence, Zheng Qian turned his head and said to the Hou of Luyang Township.

At this time, the face of the Luyang Township Marquis had no previous calmness. He said in a deep voice: "What kind of explanation does the prince hope?"

"Well..."

Zheng Qian pondered for a moment and replied, "I hope the second son of your mansion will come to your house to apologize to your father. In addition, the first servant in your mansion who started the day, who was called "Cao An" should be punished for heavy wars! I have no intention of taking his life. If only forty wars are over, this matter will be cancelled! Wang Zhi, what do you think?"

Wang Zhi glanced at Zhao Yu hatefully, then turned his eyes to Cao An who was standing behind Zhao Yu, nodded and said, "You are the one who is the leader, and you have no objection."

To be fair, what Wang Zhi hated the most was Zhao Yu, wishing that those forty wars would all hit Zhao Yu. After all, he thought he had given Zhao Yu face that day, but he didn't expect that Zhao Yu would show no mercy to him.

But then again, Zhao Yu was the second son of the Marquis of Luyang Township. Even if he wanted to fight back, he could not do too much. Therefore, it is more appropriate to let Zhao Yu's close servant Cao An bear the consequences for his little master.

Hearing the words of the master and servant, Cao An, who was standing behind Zhao Yu, suddenly showed a look of panic on his face. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he lowered his head and said nothing.

And at this moment, Zhao Yu said lightly: "Criminal, if you want to punish Cao An, that's not OK. That day, Cao An's behavior was just to protect the master. He was not the first to do it. It was me who started!"

Under the gaze of the Marquis of Luyang Township and Cao Ju, Cao An's face was moved and he whispered with excitement and entanglement: "Young Master, you don't have to do it for..."

"Shut up." Zhao Yu interrupted Cao An and looked at Zheng Qian and continued, "Besides, I don't think I did anything wrong at that time... The prince thought that the mansion had lost face because I taught Wang Zhi a lesson? No, when Wang Zhi was drunk and humiliated others for no reason in front of everyone, the mansion had lost face!"

Zheng Qian was embarrassed and angry when he was said, and said to the Luyang Township Hou with rude eloquence: "Zhao Township Hou, what did you say? Do you mean the same thing?"

He glanced at Zhao Yu and Cao An who was standing behind him. The Marquis of Luyang Township hesitated for a moment, and then picked up the tea bowl on the desk.

"Cao Ju, give me the crown prince!"
