The Founding of the Red Chamber

The perception of Peng Li is different from that of the Peng family.

Jia Yuan's popular explanation is: a string of species.

It is obviously a family of robbers, but there is a gentleman who is educated.It is said that Peng Li is quite unpopular with his old man when he is at home, especially when the old man sees him holding a book and babbling about something, his eyes are bleeding with hatred, and he often finds fault with him and beats Peng Li with a whip to vent his anger.

It really insulted his old man's first life name.

It wasn't until Peng Li was selected as a scholar early that Lord Peng's perception of this son changed a little, and he was willing to give him some dignity and status.

Situ San was on good terms with Peng Li, he always respected scholars.

Peng Li said to Situ San, "Brother-in-law can't wait."

Situ San's thick eyebrows were slightly furrowed. He had always been with Zhang Biao longer than Peng Li, so he naturally knew Zhang Biao's ambitions better.

It's nothing for a man to be ambitious, who in the world has no ambition?However, he and Zhang Biao are outsiders after all, and their time in Jinling City is still short. Besides, they still have identities that cannot be revealed.If someone finds out his old background, and his hometown has a record of bloody crimes, it will be difficult to survive.

If you want Situ San to say, keeping a low profile is king.

Even if Zhao Heipi is their deadly enemy, it's too early to break face with Zhao Heipi at this time.

Situ San persuaded Zhang Biao several times, and with Peng Li's words, Zhang Biao finally suppressed his ambition for the time being.

As a result, within a month or so, Zhang Biao was attacked by some unknown people on his way home from the shop. Three of Zhang Biao's subordinates were hacked to death and two of them were seriously injured. Zhang Biao escaped with his life. One calamity, and a machete on the back.

When Mrs. Peng saw her husband coming home bloody, she had nothing but crying and crying, but Zhang Biao was naked to the waist and asked the doctor to bandage the knife and gun. Make a noise, and send your subordinates, "Go to the venue and call your third brother! Let him bring a few more people, don't follow other people's ways!"

The subordinates went in fear.

Only then did Mrs. Peng come back to her senses, and sent the woman beside her, "Call, call Ah Li." He said to Zhang Biao, "My brother is a scholar after all, let's see what he says."

Zhang Biao closed his eyes slightly and said nothing.

When Situ San heard about this, his face changed drastically, and he quickly took people to Zhang Biao's house.

Zhang Biao's wound had already been wrapped up. In July, even at night, the heat was steaming. Zhang Biao was impatient to put on his clothes, so he simply bare his upper body. There was a little blood on the white cloth that wrapped his wound.

Situ San hurriedly asked, "Brother Biao, what did the injury doctor say?"

"I still can't die." Zhang Biao waved his hand, his eyes were full of blood, "This injury is nothing, but, you all advised me to bear it for a while, I endured it, what happened! I endured it, others may not Tolerate!"

Zhang Biao sat in the grand master's chair, his fierce eyes fixed on Situ San, and his veined palm clasped the armrest of the grand master's chair, "San'er, it's not that we can't tolerate Zhao, it's that Zhao can't tolerate us!"

Situ San thought about it all the way, and he also suspected that it was Zhao Heipi's hand, but...

Situ Sandao said, "Brother Biao, I think it's better to verify this matter, so as not to let people say that our teacher is an unknown person. After all, Zhao is also a member of the Cao Gang. If people say that Master Peng is protecting his son-in-law, it is not very good."

Zhang Biao sternly said, "Check! San'er, go check it yourself!"

Situ San responded, and said again, "I brought some brothers here, Brother Biao will bring more people when he goes out in the future, there is no big mistake in being careful."

"I'm still afraid of him, Zhao Heipi!"

"Brother Biao——" Situ San said in a deep voice, "We are destined to go all the way to Jinling. Thanks to Brother Biao's knowledge, now we have some ostentation and behave like a human being. If it is Zhao Heipi's hands, Once you lose, you may not be able to kill again, if Brother Biao doesn't take precautions, it will be good or bad, not to mention us brothers who follow Brother Biao, Brother Biao should also cherish himself when he thinks about his sister-in-law and nephew."

Zhang Biao sighed, "The hero is short of breath."

Situ Sandao said, "Brother Biao is safe, so we will be safe. Brother Biao is only for us, bring more people."

Zhang Biao discussed many things with Situ San again, and then let Situ San go back.

After Situ San left, Zhang Biao ordered someone to call Peng Li to discuss, "I want to bother you about something."

Peng Lili knew all about it, and said in a gentle voice, "Brother-in-law, even if you tell me, as long as my younger brother can do it, I won't refuse."

"I want to ask my brother to go back and tell my father-in-law about this matter for me." Zhang Biao stroked the jade ring on his right thumb, his eyes were tired, "My brother also saw that in this world, it is not people who eat me , I am a cannibal. I am still young, and there are your sister and your nephew, so I can’t be stabbed like this for nothing.”

Peng Li said nothing, "Okay! I'll go back tonight."

Originally, Zhang Biao wanted to follow Peng Li's temperament as a scholar, so he had to persuade him that peace is the most important thing, and he didn't want Peng Li to be so straightforward.Zhang Biao rejoiced, and said again, "Don't be in such a hurry, it's already getting late, and it will be the same if brother comes back tomorrow."

Peng Li's face was not the least bit happy, and his tone was calm, "Didn't brother-in-law hear a word? Strike while the iron is hot. I will go back now, so that my father can understand the urgency of the situation. It is brother-in-law. Since he is injured, it is better to lie down on the bed. 36 plan Among them, bitter tricks are one of them."

Zhang Biao immediately understood what Peng Li meant, he just pretended to be seriously ill, not only to make it easier for Peng Li to embellish his father-in-law, but also to paralyze the enemy.Zhang Biao smiled, "It's because you have a lot of scholars, so I won't send brother off." He called his confidants to send Peng Li home.

Zhang Biao looked like he was dying, he didn't go out, and he kept the doctor in the mansion, only four or five people knew his details.

Peng Li was still very efficient in his work, so that night, Master Peng came to see Zhang Biao in a sedan chair regardless of Lu Yuan's distance and it was dark.Mrs. Peng cried and wiped away tears, Zhang Biao was half dead, Mr. Peng stomped his feet and sighed, "Someone dares to attack my son-in-law! The Cao Gang is simply ignored! You have to think about who you have offended and how you have attracted this Wait for the killer!"

Peng Li said softly, "Brother-in-law is in this line of work, there is nothing else, there are plenty of enemies. He is already lying down, how can we investigate? How about father take care of this matter on behalf of brother-in-law."

Master Peng scolded angrily, "Ignorant boy! What do you know! Your brother-in-law is also a prominent figure, with hundreds of brothers under him, and countless confidantes. Although I am worried about him, I can't interfere in his territory! This is the rule!"

Peng Li was scolded, and Zhang Biao begged as if he would lose his breath at any moment, "Don't...don't dare...to let my father-in-law worry about my son-in-law, just...wait...to find out the thieves who hurt me... ... Please, please, father-in-law uphold justice for the son-in-law."

Mr. Peng has a beautiful beard, and he said, "It's natural! You want to heal your wounds, and keep the green hills here, so you don't have to worry about running out of firewood. Hmph! How dare this person attack my son-in-law, Mr. Peng? Stop paying attention to me, Peng!"

Zhang Biao was bedridden, and it was Peng who wiped his tears and sent his father out.

Seeing Peng's swollen eyes, Master Peng sighed, "My son-in-law has suffered such a serious injury, so you have to take good care of him. You are in charge of the family affairs. If you don't understand the outside world, you should ask your son-in-law more. "

Peng responded in a low voice.

Master Peng glanced at Peng Li, "Your brother-in-law is injured, although you are a ignorant person, staying here to run errands for your sister and brother-in-law is also your duty."

Peng Li didn't speak, and Master Peng said again, "Don't read those things, I don't think you have achieved anything!"

Peng Li sent him to the gate, watched Master Peng get into the sedan chair, Peng Lifang turned and went back.

Zhang Biao pretended to be dead at home and didn't show up, because his brother-in-law was interesting and sensible, so he confessed many things to his brother-in-law and Situ San.But in just over a month, Peng Li was obviously Zhang Biao's confidant.

Xiao Niuzi said to Situ San privately, "Peng Li recognized me."

Situ San was slightly startled, "You have seen it before."

"I've seen it, not many times. The way he looked at me, he recognized me." Xiao Niuzi was always careful, and he was quite afraid of Peng Li, and said, "However, he didn't expose it, and he never followed me. I have spoken in private. Third brother, be careful, I think he is not simple. "

not simple?

More than simple?

Peng Li once said to Situ San, "Zhao Heipi has established himself in Jinling City for many years. Not to mention his deep roots, he is better than you in terms of family background. His brother-in-law is the head of the government office, and he has the relationship with Fu Tongzhi. The family has a big business, and it is still a gang of grassroots. Except for Zhao Heipi, the Yamen must be taken care of first. If I were brother-in-law, I would bear this tone and save face. Enough is enough. Don't say whether the assassination was Zhao Heipi did it, even if it is true, he must endure it. He has a reason to attack, but now is not the time to attack."

"If he doesn't listen to your advice, he will regret it one day. Situ, you are his confidant, so be prepared."

"What to prepare?"

"Preparation to escape from Jinling City."

Situ San's mood can't be described as surprise, but shock is more appropriate. Situ San opened his eyes wide and said, "Brother Biao is Master Peng's son-in-law after all."

Peng Li exhaled a light and long breath from the lobe of his lungs. He looked at the grape racks in the yard with strings of green fruits hanging on them, and there was a trace of sadness in his peaceful eyes, "Situ, there are thirty fathers and children. If you really love Which daughter will marry her to a man in his forties, a young age, who kills and kills?"

"I, I'll go and persuade Brother Biao again."

"Brother-in-law won't listen." Peng Li said indifferently, "The authorities are deluded, let alone...not close."

"You have to do your best. If it's really a dead end, we brothers will die together!" Situ San walked away with big strides.

Peng Li picked up the sapphire cup, raised his head and drank the fine wine in the cup.
