Hong Shanchang's forehead was covered with veins, his temples were throbbing, and he was so angry that he was fuming. He had lived for most of his life, and when he was in Jiangxi, he had exposed several hypocritical people who looked righteous and upright, and he had also been plotted against by others. However, these people were honest and upright in public, but secretly they were thieves and prostitutes, and everything was a conspiracy. How could he have encountered such a reckless behavior as Zhang Shou
He stared at Zhang Shou fiercely and growled in a low voice: "Zhang Shou, you dared to kidnap me in front of the gate of the elegant residence where the emperor summoned us mountain masters. You are so arrogant! Do you think I dare not call for help? I am saving your face!"
"So that Headmaster Hong can know that if you want to call for help, the guards outside were transferred from the Ruiqi Battalion to my house by the Emperor after he heard the news from the Second Prince. They are here to serve as escorts for an insignificant official like me."
After hearing these words, Chief Hong's face turned gloomy. Zhang Shou smiled and said, "If I hadn't resorted to this desperate measure and forced you to get on the car, with your prejudice against me, you would have just walked away with a "I have nothing to say to you". How could we be riding in the same car calmly and chatting about the past and present?"
Chief Hong almost vomited blood in anger. Is this called being calm? Do you know that I just endured and endured not to shout that someone kidnapped a celebrity in the street! I was afraid that the onlookers would think I was the protagonist of the monkey show, otherwise I would not be so polite to you! Of course, when he learned that Zhang Shou's followers were actually appointed by the emperor, he felt sad unconsciously.
The emperor doesn't care at all about a headmaster like me who is well-versed in classics and history, strictly abides by rites and has impeccable moral conduct. However, Zhang Shou, a kid who is only good at arithmetic but doesn't know classics and history, has usurped a high position. How can this be possible in the world!
He was feeling more and more depressed. He sneered and said coldly, "According to what you said, Master Zhang, you came here today to rob me by order?"
"If I say yes, then the emperor will bear the blame. And if I say no, then I will bear the blame." Zhang Shou said two sentences like a tongue twister. Seeing that Hong Shanchang's nose was crooked with anger, he said sincerely, "So, please be patient, Hong Shanchang."
Although he didn't believe a word of Zhang Shou's nonsense, the gloomy-faced Hong Shanchang was too lazy to continue the verbal dispute with others in the car. After all, when he thought that these bickering words would be heard by the guards of the Ruiqi Battalion outside, he lost interest in speaking. He didn't want to look at the face in front of him that was too dazzling, so he simply closed his eyes and rested. He didn't know how long it had been before he heard a faint voice: "Master, we're here."
Seeing that Director Hong Shan suddenly opened his eyes and Ah Liu had already swiftly gotten out of the car door and stood waiting at the bottom, Zhang Shou smiled and leaned out of the car first. After he stood still, he turned around and looked at Director Hong Shan and said, "It's a coincidence that the small restaurant with good food that Ah Liu mentioned before is closed right now. Let's just stay in this teahouse."
If he hadn't been unable to stay in the car, Hong Shanchang wouldn't have even wanted to move. At this moment, he got out of the car very reluctantly, but after seeing the hanging sign, his face became as dark as a pot-bottomed helmet.
