Chapter 379: Abandoning Literature and Martial Arts
The chaotic sound outside alarmed the woman playing the piano in the attic in the courtyard. Cai Yan pushed open the window and looked at the group of people below from afar and couldn't help but smile.
The one who taught her to play the piano and read in the house was Fan Susu, the concubine of King Wuwei. She was asked by Huang Shang to teach Cai Yan to study. After hearing the sound, she walked over from behind and looked at the children below, and couldn't help but smile: "Uncle's disciples are really interesting! I heard from my uncle that they are all young talents and will be famous talents in the world in the future. Which one Wen Ji likes? Tell my sister that she can help you as a matchmaker!"
Cai Yan's face turned red and said angrily: "Sister is happy again!" He closed the window with a slam, not seeing the people fighting.
In the open space outside the courtyard, Huang Shang's disciples flocked together and were in full swing.
Suddenly, a sudden shout sounded like thunder: "Who is so bold to bully my fellow countrymen?"
A strong boy of seventeen or eighteen years old walked over with a thunderbolt on his eyes, with an unwiped eye booster on his face, and his face was full of anger of being woken up in his sleep. However, Sima Yi saw that the situation was not good, so he ordered his servants to wake him up in advance to help him.
Zhou Yu saw him at first sight, and shouted in surprise: "Xingba, you are here just in time, come and help me! Ouch!" As he was speaking, Zhuge Kongliang took the opportunity to penetrate his eyes with one move, and his fingers penetrated his eye sockets, and he jumped backwards in pain, and then he avoided Fa Zheng's serial attack.
When he came here from Sichuan, Gan Ning, who had been living in the Prime Minister's Mansion, was furious and strode over and grabbed Fa Zheng, threw him hard, and threw him to the ground, shouting angrily: "Stop! If you dare to fight again, see if I beat you to death!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhuge Kongliang turned around and ran away in a hurry, but was caught by Zhou Yu, who was rubbing his eyes with pain. He kicked the butt and threw it to the ground. Then Zhou Yu rode on his body and reported his old fist. He screamed in pain: "Long Wen, help me!"
A strong boy leaning against a big tree in the distance was watching the fun. He heard his name and couldn't help laughing: "Who said last time that I had a rebellious backwards and would rebel in the future? Now I'm asking me to help me!"
Zhuge Kongliang was beaten and shouted in pain: "I'm just kidding, why are you taking it seriously! I have invited you so many meals these days, but you won't help me. Next time I go out to fight crickets, I won't take you there!"
The young man was poor. Although the Prime Minister took in it, the wages he gave was not enough for him to drink. Aristocratic families like Zhou Yu looked down on him, a humble civilian. Only Zhuge Kongliang was better to him. He took the money sent by his uncle from Qingzhou to treat him to dinner and drink. If he didn't rely on him, he felt itchy after watching the excitement for a long time. He walked over and picked up Zhou Yu, grabbed a chicken, and threw him out several steps, and fell to the ground, moaning in pain.
Gan Ning was teaching Fa Zheng a lesson, but Xu Shu suddenly saw Zhou Yu suffer a loss. He was angry and walked over and shouted, "Wei Wenchang, you dare to cause trouble too! Be careful that the Prime Minister will come back and drive you out!"
Wei Yan and he were the generals of the Prime Minister's Mansion. They had long been dissatisfied with each other and sneered: "The Prime Minister is back, but I don't know who to drive out!"
The two of them had a disagreement and fought each other, and they responded with old fists. The bangs made them swell and swollen from their noses and faces rolling on the ground, and they still tried their best to get up and beat each other up.
Xu Shu, Lu Meng, Fa Zheng and others next to him were just separated by Gan Ning. When he saw that he and Wei Yan also started fighting, he had no worries. He rushed forward and fought again. He took this opportunity to vent his usual resentment.
Another disciple of Huang Shangxin, Lu Su, who was not in his twentieth year, also heard the noise and ran over, waving his hands in a hurry and persuaded him hard, but no one was willing to listen to him, and he still fisted and beat him non-stop.
On the side, a child who was seven or eight years old and dressed in gorgeous clothes almost cried when he looked at the fierce fight scene.
He was the son of the Lu family who was reported to the court by Huang Shang, who moved his whole family to Luoyang. At this time, he was still young. Although he was naturally smart, he was summoned to the Prime Minister's Mansion and became Huang Shang's disciple. He was still confused. Now seeing Lu Meng, who was pressed to the ground and beaten up, even though he wanted to come forward to help Lu Meng fight, Lu Su grabbed him tightly and prevented him from approaching the fighting arena with flies.
At this time, the happiest person was the eldest brother Yang Xiu. He moved a chair and sat under the shade of the tree. Looking at the embarrassing appearance of a few annoying junior brothers with a bruised nose and a swollen face, Yang Xiu was overjoyed. Although he did not dare to laugh and attracted everyone's attention, his flesh was shaking all over his body.
A burst of laughter came from a distance. Two heroic teenagers in military uniforms walked into the door with a smile. Suddenly, they saw this chaotic scene. They were relatively surprised, wondering if they had gone to the wrong place.
First, a young man in red robe looked sharp-eyed. He saw his good friend being beaten by two children at first sight, but Sima Yi quietly escaped. He couldn't help but get frightened and ran over, grabbed Pang Tong and Zhuge Kongliang and threw them away, held Zhou Yu who was about to fall, and exclaimed: "Gongjin, how are you?"
Zhou Yu opened his swollen eyes hard and saw his sworn brother coming. He was ashamed and angry as he couldn't help but burst into tears. He gritted his teeth and said, "You have seen these evil people, ignorant, and they will beat us good students who are diligent in studying!"
Sun Ce was furious and rushed over to grab Zhuge Kongliang, and wanted to slap him in the face. Even if he didn't knock him out, he would still give him a lot of flowers!
The heavy iron palm slapped down hard, but an arm stretched out from the side and stopped the palm. Ma Chao shouted in his ear: "Bo Fu, don't do this! If you hurt the Prime Minister's disciple, the Prime Minister will definitely blame him!"
Sun Ce was furious. Relying on his apprentice to King Wuwei, he didn't care about his prime minister's disciple, he would beat him up when he caught Zhuge Kongliang. Ma Chao hugged him and refused to let him die, and persuaded him hard.
Sun Ce struggled hard and twisted into a ball with Ma Chao. The two of them joined not only did not stop everyone from fighting, but instead made the situation even more chaotic.
"Oh!" A long sigh came out of the backyard door. The Prime Minister walked slowly over in court uniform, his face full of sadness and lost expressions of heartache.
He had just left the court and went home with Ma Chao and Sun Ce, asking them to have dinner, and asked Sun Ce to see his good friends. Because he was going to visit Wang Yun on the way, he came back a little late, so he landed behind the two, but saw this situation.
Yang Xiuzheng was so excited when he suddenly saw the master coming. He was startled and stood up quickly and bowed to salute. Seeing that the master had no intention of blaming him, he secretly smuggled a cold sweat and respectfully gave his chair to the master to sit on.
Huang Shang did not refuse, sat down, leaned his back on the chair, and watched the disciples beat him silently.
Sima Yi walked over obediently, bowed carefully to his master, and stood behind Huang Shang to serve him politely.
After fighting for a long time, the disciples were tired of fighting and were injured. Gradually, someone was shocked to see Huang Shang sitting there watching their behavior, and hurriedly stopped and jumped aside.
When he stopped like this, his opponent also noticed that the teacher was back. He was so scared that he broke out in tears and stopped fighting.
Soon, a group of disciples and two generals stopped and stood in front of Huang Shang, ready to learn lessons. When Sun Ce saw the Prime Minister come back, he did not dare to be arrogant. He stared at Zhuge Kongliang and his group of people angrily, standing next to him, waiting for the Prime Minister to deal with the disciples, and made up his mind that if the Prime Minister protects Zhuge Kongliang and blames Zhou Yu, he would have to come forward and say something fair.
Huang Shang stared at the disciples quietly for a while, and looked at them so hard that they felt upset, and then he said lightly: "I've played enough, I won't play anymore? Keep going! I'm just about to watch for a while!"
The disciples knew that he was talking sarcastically, and did not dare to take action. Instead, they knelt down and apologized: "I am guilty, please punish me!"
Looking at a large number of future talents kneeling in front of him, Huang Shang sighed and said, "It seems that I was wrong! I thought you were all talents who govern the country and pacify the world. I didn't expect that you were obsessed with martial arts. Even when I was away, you should learn martial arts with each other! Well, from now on, you can follow me to practice martial arts. With my ability to be a versatile talent in civil and military affairs, you must teach you all to become a powerful general who gallops on the battlefield!"
Although the teacher said this, the disciples were reluctant to believe it. They only said that he was angry and discouraged and kowtowed to apologize, begging the teacher not to be angry, so as not to get angry.
Huang Shang shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I have already thought about it. From tomorrow on, you will follow me to practice martial arts. Each person will practice swinging his fists five hundred times! Do another 500 push-ups, and you won't give it to food if you can't do it!"
He turned his head, looked at the disciples, and sneered: "You like fighting so much, I will give you the chance to ride. Every five days, you can fight one of them on the training ground, until one side can't get up! Anyway, I have a magic pill for my master, and it's not difficult to get back to life. Even if you break three or four legs, I can cure you for your master! With the support of your master, you can do it with confidence and boldness!"
When the disciples heard this, they were both happy and worried. According to the master's actions, they were intentionally trying to kill everyone. A kind-hearted person like Sima Yi had already begun to think about establishing a good relationship with several opponents so that they would not beat him desperately on the court. He had not fulfilled the high expectations given by the Sima clan, so he could not be beaten to death by his fellow disciples so unknown.
Zhou Yu sneered, staring at Zhuge Kongliang maliciously, and thought to himself, if no one helped, this kid would be several years younger than him, so how could he never beat him?
Although it is not very nice to spread the word of bullying the small, I don’t care about so much in order to avenge the grudges accumulated over so long!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel happy, wishing he could run to the training ground to fight Zhuge Kongliang one-on-one, making him look for his teeth and show his might. Maybe the junior sister playing the piano inside would be conquered by her heroic posture, and she might fall in love with him at first sight.
