Shengjing Noble

Chapter 227 No need to endure anymore

As soon as the words fell, before anyone present could react, a black shadow suddenly flashed by.

There was a "pop" sound.

A clear and loud slap exploded on Fang Tao's face. She fell off the stool and sat on the ground, her face full of shock.

Lu Wanjun rubbed her red palms, her eyes looking so ferocious that she almost wanted to kill someone.

"You old whore, if you dare to scold my daughter, I will kill you!"

Then, he jumped up, stepped on the table, rushed over and kicked Fang Tao on the head, kicking her more than half a meter away.

She had always had a hot temper. It would have been fine if he had scolded her, but to actually have the guts to humiliate her precious daughter was intolerable!

No matter what she says today, she will smash Fang Tao's mouth!

Seeing Lu Wanjun rolling up her sleeves and preparing to attack again with a ferocious look on her face, Fang Qingqing reacted and rushed forward to stop her.

"Stop! How dare you hit my mother!"

She screamed and walked forward, but before she got close, she was slapped away by Lu Wanjun.

The mother and daughter of the Fang family sat neatly on the ground. They were beaten so hard that they saw stars but had no power to fight back. They could only shout for help in fear.

The Su family finally reacted.

"How outrageous! How can this be? Someone, go up and pull this crazy woman away!" The old lady spoke first.

The servants at the door rushed in to stop them, while Su Yongcheng and Su Shenghao, who were standing aside, rushed forward first and grabbed Lu Wanjun's waving arms.

Seeing that their mother was about to lose, Su Lanyin and Su Shengming were not going to sit idly by.

"Don't touch my mother, you scumbag!"

"You old thief, let my mother go!"

The brother and sister jumped up, kicked the Su father and son away, and protected Lu Wanjun.

On the other side, Su Shengyun silently picked up the wine jug on the table, stood in front of Su Shengyan, and said through gritted teeth: "Don't be afraid, brother, if anyone dares to come over, I will use this to smash him to death!"

Although he spoke firmly, he was obviously trembling.

Su Shengyan, sitting in a wheelchair, was speechless.

He is obviously the disabled one, so why does it seem that my second brother is the weakest?

In short, the Lu family and the Su family fought each other, and the whole scene was in chaos.

The guests who came to the engagement party grabbed the melon seeds on the table and started to crack them, talking as they went.

"I think Madam Fang's words are too sarcastic. If I were Lu Wanjun, I wouldn't be able to stand it!"

"It's just a few words, it won't hurt a piece of flesh, is it necessary to hit someone on the spot? That's too rude!"

"Then I'll sell you to a brothel. Don't be angry. After all, it won't cost you a thing!"

"How can you talk like that? I'm warning you not to say anything indecent, or I'll get angry with you!"

"Oh, she said that the girl wouldn't resort to violence, but I said you are so shameless that you want to get rid of me? Do you have any brains?"

"You...you stinky woman, are you trying to cause trouble on purpose?"

"Who started the fight first? Why are you staring at me? Believe it or not, I will dig your eyes out!"

"Okay! Come and dig! I'll beat you to death!"

……

Now, even the onlookers started fighting with each other.

The situation escalated. The table was overturned, the food was thrown everywhere, and all one could hear was noise and cursing.

However, even so, the Lu family did not suffer any loss.

In the melee, the three of them beat the Fang mother and daughter and those damn guys from the Su family to a pulp.

Su Yongcheng's clothes were torn to pieces, and his face was covered in blood as someone scratched it. He finally crawled out of the chaotic crowd, looking like he wanted to cry but had no tears.

Sitting on the ground and looking at the engagement banquet he had carefully arranged, he subconsciously raised his hand to touch the painful spot on his face, and felt the blood on his fingers. He immediately became angry and hysterical!

"Stop it! Stop it, everyone!"

He yelled without caring about his image.

Just at this moment, a group of people finally walked in from outside the door.

"The imperial edict has arrived!"

With a shout, all the people who were fighting just now stopped and showed shocked expressions.

Why is there an imperial edict out of the blue?

Never mind, kneel down first!

Then, everyone knelt down on the spot, lowered their heads and dared not say a word.

The eunuch in charge who delivered the imperial edict stepped over the threshold and looked at everything in front of him. Even though he had seen many storms before, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"This is... Lord Su, we heard that you were going to hold your son's engagement party today. How come it turned out to be like this?" Butler Liu asked with some gloating look on his face.

Su Yongcheng was so ashamed and angry that he wished he could find a crack in the ground to hide in rather than being so disgraced.

"Your subordinate...something happened in your family. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Lord Steward."

But Liu Zongguan was a trusted eunuch of the emperor. There were only two possibilities for him to convey the emperor's orders: great sorrow or great joy.

Either it is severe punishment such as death, dismissal from office, exile, quarreling, etc., or it is promotion, title, or reward.

In short, they are the emperor’s first orders and are taken most seriously.

Su Yongcheng knelt on the ground with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

Why did the emperor send an imperial decree to his family out of the blue? Was he going to give him an official position?

It seems that the gifts I sent before have worked!

His mood instantly turned from gloomy to bright. Even though the ground was a mess, even though the wound on his face was aching slightly, even though he was filled with resentment, none of it could compare to the ecstasy brought about by his impending rise to the top.

"Master General, does the Emperor want to..."

Before he finished asking, Chief Steward Liu frowned and said, "We haven't read out the imperial edict yet, Lord Su, please don't speculate on the emperor's intentions!"

"Yes! It's my fault! I hope you can forgive me!"

Su Yongcheng immediately lowered his head and dared not ask any more questions, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

It seems that this is really the imperial decree for his promotion.

Manager Liu sneered and glanced around before settling on Lu Wanjun.

Then he slowly said, "Is Shopkeeper Lu Wanjun here?"

Although Lu Wanjun was kneeling, she was still holding Fang Tao's hair tightly in her hand. When she heard her name was called, she immediately let go of her hand with an embarrassed smile on her face.

"Yes! I am here!"

"Step forward to receive the order!"

"Ah I?"

Lu Wanjun didn't expect that it was her own imperial edict, and her face was filled with surprise and disbelief.

"Yes, it's you!"

Now, everyone looked at Lu Wanjun with complicated expressions, especially Su Yongcheng, whose eyes were about to pop out.

"Master General, are you sure? Why would the Emperor give her an imperial edict?"

Su Yongcheng couldn't help but asked directly.

Chief Steward Liu frowned in displeasure and reprimanded in a low and cold voice: "Master Su, are you questioning our family or His Majesty?"

"Ah? I dare not! I dare not!"

Su Yongcheng immediately became timid and kowtowed repeatedly.

Manager Liu didn't bother to pay attention and continued, "Lu Wanjun, can you ask your children to kneel before our family to receive the imperial edict?"

"Yes!"

Lu Wanjun took Su Lanyin and Su Shengming to the front and knelt down first, while Su Shengyun also dragged Su Shengyan over.
