"That bastard, where is that bastard now?" Taifu Chu woke up before the doctor came over, and said in a trembling voice.
The servant replied tremblingly: "The people at the government office said that they did not disclose the identity of the young master, and they should send the young master home soon."
As soon as the words were finished, a servant informed that Mr. Zeng and Mr. Cui came to visit together.
In the distance, several figures came over, the front ones were two middle-aged men, and behind them, it was Chu Ping who limped towards this side.
"Master Taifu..."
"Kneel down!"
As soon as Cui Qingming spoke, he was taken aback by the furious Master Tutor, and swallowed what he wanted to say.
poof.
Chu Ping was expressionless and knelt down on the bluestone slab.
"Bastard, why did you come out of our Chu family with a beast like you!" Mrs. Chu had a ferocious expression, picked up his crutches, slapped Chu Ping's shoulders fiercely, and said angrily: "I will beat you to death today, so I won't let you down." The ancestors of my Chu family are ashamed!"
Chu Ping's body swayed, but he didn't dodge. A sneer appeared on his face, and he said, "Then you can kill me. Anyway, I'm a useless person. It will damage the reputation of the Chu family. It's better to die. It's better to die." …”
Taifu Chu was stunned, looking at the grandson in front of him who he had brought up since he was a child, but found that after only a few months, he didn't know him at all.
He raised his crutches, but didn't let it fall for a long time, muttering: "My Chu family has a hundred-year-old name, and a hundred-year-old name..."
"A century-old name..." A sad smile appeared on Chu Ping's face, and he said, "Yes, a century-old name, as long as you kill me, the Chu family will still be the Chu family. A century-old name will not be lost... "
He stuck his head out and said with a smile, "Come on, Grandpa, I'm ready."
Taifu Chu looked at him, his body trembling, but the crutch in his hand couldn't fall down no matter what.
"Ping'er..."
He put down his crutches, bent down, stroked his face with his skinny hands, and said in a trembling voice, "Ping'er, why did you become like this..."
Chu Ping didn't answer. After a trace of pain appeared on his face, he closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes lost emotion again.
He stood up from the ground, and without looking at Mrs. Chu again, he limped towards the inside.
The middle-aged man behind Taifu Chu took a step forward, looked at Zeng Shichun, and asked anxiously: "Master Zeng, what is going on here?"
Zeng Shichun shook his head and said: "The government office got the news today that many cases of missing women in recent days were done by the Peng family in Ping'an County. They kidnapped these women and forced them into prostitution, in order to satisfy some customers Some perverted hobbies, when the police officers broke in, they happened to see Chu Ping inside."
The middle-aged man couldn't believe it, and murmured: "This is impossible, this is impossible, didn't Ping'er go to visit Sun Daru, didn't he go to ask Sun Daru for his teachings, how could it be, how could he..."
"Brother Chu, young people will inevitably make mistakes..." Cui Qingming waved his hands and said, "It is His Royal Highness the King of Shu who was temporarily expelled from the capital because of a small mistake made by young people. Nephew Chu Pingxian is still young. , although I have traveled thousands of mountains and rivers with Master Taifu, but I have really experienced too few things, and I am easy to be tempted by foreign objects. If I discipline myself strictly in the future, I will definitely be able to correct my mistakes and turn to good again."
The middle-aged man sighed, and said, "For this matter, I have to ask Brother Cui more."
Cui Qingming smiled and said: "Brother Chu, don't worry, no one knows that Chu Ping is also involved in this incident. As for other obstacles, Mr. Zeng will help clear them up, just like last time..."
"Thank you Brother Cui." The middle-aged man said, then turned his head, looked at Mrs. Chu and said, "Father, I'm going to see Ping'er."
Seeing the middle-aged man leave, Cui Qingming took a step forward and said, "My lord, Chu Ping is still young, so he will inevitably make mistakes. Don't be angry..."
boom!
Cui Qingming covered his head, blood was streaming down his forehead, he looked at Grand Tutor Chu in a daze, and said in disbelief: "Master Tai Tuo, you..."
"Cui Qingming!" Taifu Chu's eyes were bloodshot, he pointed at him with a walking stick, and said, "The old man's eyes can't see clearly, do you think the old man's heart is also blind!"
Cui Qingming covered his head and looked at Grand Tutor Chu. After a long time, the shock on his face disappeared, and he said calmly, "Why can't this junior understand what Master Tai Tuo is talking about?"
Chu Taifu threw the crutches on the ground, gave him a cold look, and said coldly: "Get lost!"
…
"It seems to be self-defeating."
When the two walked out of Chu's house, Zeng Shichun looked at Cui Qingming and whispered something.
"How could this be self-defeating?" Cui Qingming's wound on his head was no longer bleeding, but there were still many bloodstains on his face. When he smiled, he looked quite hideous.
Zeng Shichun shook his head and asked: "Looking at the situation just now, the Taifu probably already knows about these things, and you are the one behind the push. Will he help the Cui family and His Highness the King of Shu again?"
"He is not helping the Cui family, nor is he helping His Highness the King of Shu." Cui Qingming wiped the blood from his head and said, "He is helping their Chu family."
Zeng Shichun looked at him and said, "Hand over Chu Ping, the Chu family is still the Chu family."
Cui Qingming shook his head and said: "Before today, when Chu Ping was handed over, the Chu family was still the Chu family. After today, the century-old name of the Chu family is in our hands. As for how to choose, Mr. Taifu is smart." Man, he knows what to do."
…
"Father, what should we do?"
In the dark lobby, the person in charge of the Chu family walked in, saw the figure in the deepest part of the darkness, and said slowly.
After a long time, a hoarse voice came from the darkness: "How is Ping'er?"
"I've already fallen asleep." The middle-aged man replied.
No sound came from the darkness.
"The old man was wrong, it was wrong from the beginning..." After a long time, there was a sighing voice in the darkness, and the old man murmured: "I didn't expect that the Cui family was so vicious, it was a living human life, a living life people..."
The middle-aged man stared at him blankly, with an unbelievable expression on his face, "Father means..."
"They have already ruined Ping'er, and now they are going to ruin our Chu family..."
The old man turned his head slowly, looked at the spirit cards of the Chu family's ancestors in the darkness, and murmured: "They are going to destroy the reputation accumulated by our Chu family's ancestors for generations..."
The middle-aged man trembled and said anxiously: "Father, absolutely not, this is absolutely impossible, the Chu family has a century-old name, and it must not be destroyed by our hands!"
He gritted his teeth and said with difficulty: "If it really doesn't work, just hand over Ping'er!"
Master Chu shook his head and said, "After they sent Ping'er back twice, this is no longer Ping'er's problem."
The middle-aged man took a few steps back and murmured: "Could it be, could it be that my Chu family..."
Taifu Chu lit the candles in the house, straightened his clothes, and said, "Get ready, I want to meet some old friends in a few days..."
