Cultivation – Stand above the Heaven

Chapter 173: Neither humble nor arrogant?

Views:

Qiu Wanli would choose Qu Sanping to manage such a large property for him. Naturally, Qu Sanping was not an ordinary person. This performance made Wandong see his forbearance and scheming. Staying by Qiu Wanli's side alone would be a disaster after all.

Wan Dong raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Okay! For your sake, I can stop pursuing this reckless man's rudeness. However, you don't know who hit my Uncle Tiger, do you?"

"This matter, Master Xu..." Seeing that Wandong was clinging to this matter and clearly wanted to stand up for Hu Jingqi, Qu Sanping's heart sank. He had heard of Xu Yaoting's evil reputation, but he was much more difficult to deal with than Hu Jingqi.

"Stop talking nonsense! Give me a name!" Wandong was very forceful. After Qu Sanping hesitated for a moment, Wandong immediately shouted.

"Good boy, this person is much more majestic than me!" Looking at Wandong's livid complexion, Hu Jingqi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Master Qu..." Bao Xiong's heart beat wildly when he saw Wandong's posture. An extremely ominous premonition grew like weeds in his heart. He shuddered and looked at Qu Sanping.

Qu Sanping frowned, looked at Bao Xiong, and said, "Bao Xiong, it's up to you to answer Master Xu's question."

"Ah? Mr. Qu, you..." The ominous premonition in his heart became a reality in the blink of an eye. Bao Xiong's expression was a little bitter, and he looked a little pitiful.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Hu Jingqi wouldn't have believed that a vicious person like Bao Xiong could be so helpless. And everything Bao Xiong suffered at this time was all due to Xu Yaoting, whom he usually disliked the most. For the first time, Hu Jingqi didn't feel disgusted that Xu Yaoting was bullying others like this.

"So, you were the one who beat up my Uncle Tiger?"

"Master Xu, I..."

"Bastard! You are so courageous! My Uncle Tiger is the royal censor of the dynasty, and you, a piece of shit, beat you whenever you ask. I ask you, how much courage have you gained, and how many more courages have you gained?" A head?"

Before Bao Xiong could finish his words, Wan Dong's expression suddenly became extremely stern. The words he spoke were accompanied by the storm, causing Bao Xiong's big rough face to lose all color in an instant, and even his thick body His body began to tremble, and his eyes looked at Qu Sanping with pleading eyes.

Bao Xiong was trembling with fear at this moment, and Qu Sanping was anything but calm. I thought to myself, this Xu Yaoting is indeed the grandson of Xu Wenchuan, and the power he exudes is enough to make people drink a pot.

However, Bao Xiong has been with him for a long time. Qu Sanping didn't want to lose such a helper, and felt that he had given Xu Yaoting enough face today, so he backed down step by step, which was regarded as a "reason". He would talk about it in the future. , also has something to say. And if he continues to give in blindly and lose his people, it doesn't matter, but it will be a sin if he weakens the reputation of the national master.

Thinking of this, Qu Sanping stood up and said, "Master Xu, the Tiger Censor was indeed beaten by a bear, but there is a reason for this. If it weren't for the Tiger Censor being unreasonable and blindly making things difficult for us, we would definitely not Dare to be disrespectful to the Tiger Censor."

"Ha! You forced yourself to buy someone else's tea shop, and then you said they were unreasonable. Is there such a joke in the world?" Qu Sanping's words almost made Hu Jingqi angry to death, and he reprimanded angrily.

Qu Sanping looked calm and ignored Hu Jingqi's rebuke. He said calmly: "Who makes sense and who doesn't? I'm afraid it's not you and me who have the final say. In short, the Imperial Master has decided to keep this tea shop." Change it to a pawn shop. If anyone has any objections to this, you can go to the Imperial Preceptor to argue. We are all just minions running errands for the Imperial Preceptor. We are just following orders!"

When Qu Sanping said this, he didn't even look at Hu Jingqi, but fixed his eyes on Wandong. In Qu Sanping's mind, it was clear at a glance which one was more important.

After listening to Qu Sanping's words and seeing his posture, Wan Dong couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Is this guy named Qu trying to play the trick of being neither humble nor arrogant with him? Xu Yaoting might do this, but Wandong won't.

Hu Jingqi was not an idiot. How could he not understand the meaning of Qu Sanping's words? This was clearly Qu Sanping's warning to Wandong. If Wandong doesn't give him face anymore, he will move out of Qiu Wanli, and everyone will die.

Hu Jingqi's heart sank. If even Xu Yaoting couldn't suppress Hu Jingqi, then the old couple couldn't count on this tea shop. Unable to help feeling a little nervous, Hu Jingqi hurriedly turned his head and looked at Wandong to see how he would behave.

"Haha... It turns out that you are acting under the orders of the Imperial Master. I didn't expect this." Wan Dong said with a smile.

After hearing this, Qu Sanping's face immediately showed a hint of joy. It seemed that Wandong was ready to give in.

Hu Jingqi secretly sighed, feeling very disappointed, and secretly scolded Wan Dong, "You should bully others to the end if you use your power to bully others. What kind of thing is this when you give in halfway?"

"Master Xu is right! In this case, please Master Xu, for the sake of the Imperial Master, please stop embarrassing Qu. Qu is willing to offer 5,000 taels of gold, so it should be done to the tiger censor. Compensate! "Qu Sanping is a good person.

It's just that his kind intentions only made him angrier when it came to Hu Jingqi. Qu Sanping could give Xu Yaoting 5,000 taels to compensate him for Hu Jingqi's sake, but he was only willing to give 50 taels to forcefully buy his tea shop. It was simply unreasonable!

"Keep your dirty money, I won't care about it!" Hu Jingqi shouted bitterly.

Hu Jingqi's answer was completely within Qu Sanping's expectation. Not only was he not annoyed, he even had a smile on his face. Wan Dong shook his head, feeling amazed at Hu, admiring him at the same time and finding it a little funny. He obviously hated Qu Sanping to death, but in the end, he still wanted to save money for others.

Qu Sanping thought that everything was settled, and his face became much more relaxed.

Wan Dong smiled and suddenly said, "Mr. Qu, I still have one last question that I don't understand. I would like to ask Mr. Qu to help me clear up my doubts."

Qu Sanping waved his hand and said with a straightforward smile, "Young Master Xu is serious. If you have anything, just ask."

Wandong nodded, but was not in a hurry to say more. Instead, he paced back and forth, as if there was really a problem that stumped him.

Hu Jingqi looked at Wandong with curiosity on his face, wondering if he had anything else to ask him now. But Qu Sanping's heart suddenly became nervous for some unknown reason, and became more and more nervous every moment.

After pacing back and forth for two or three times, Wan Dong suddenly stood still, looked at Qu Sanping with a sincere face and asked, "What I don't understand is, what grudges are there between the Imperial Master and the Tiger Censor? Everyone Although we are officials in the same court, we do not want to deal with it in the court, but we order you to beat the tiger censor in public. This is inconsistent with reason and sentiment. Besides, it is also inconsistent with the upright, selfless mind and style of the Imperial Master. ” (To be continued)
