Chapter 319 Beat the master to death with random punches
Chapter 319 A flurry of punches kills the master
It's clear that Yinzhuo isn't the only wealthy older brother among the thirteenth and fourteenth brothers. Just look at how quickly they've accumulated stacks of purses in their hands. Although Yinzhuo was very generous when giving money earlier, seeing the purses that the thirteenth and fourteenth brothers could barely hold any more, he felt nothing but envy.
"Eldest brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, fifth brother, so all those times you complained about being poor to me were just putting on an act? Can any of you tell me when being penniless meant being able to casually pull out thousands of taels of silver? Look at all of you being so generous! Fourth brother, look how full your purse is, you must have been carrying a lot, right? Five thousand taels? Six thousand taels? Third brother, that looks like quite a lot too. Don't you always complain about being broke and come to me to beg for money? Humph, I'll have someone go and take things from your mansion when we get back. Eldest brother, didn't you tell me you have a large family to support and no income? So where did all these silver notes in your purse come from? Is it your secret stash of money saved up over the years? Heh, I never knew my eldest brother had such a generous side! So you've been robbing me like a rich landlord all this time? Second brother..."
Yinzhuo was so angry his nose was almost crooked, but the people he named were laughing so hard they couldn't stop. Compared to Yinti and the others who could laugh heartily, Yinyou, Yinsi, and Yintang were in a terrible state.
As the younger brothers, Yinzhi and Yintang dared not openly mock their sixth brother. They knew perfectly well that if any of them couldn't hold back their laughter, they would be in deep trouble. So, some pinched their thighs, others bit their cheeks, and those who couldn't bring themselves to do it could only recall all the unhappy things that had happened in the past six months, their faces turning red, before they finally managed to get through this ordeal.
As the saying goes, even after a thousand miles of farewell, there will eventually be a parting. Everyone watched as the thirteenth and fourteenth brothers mounted their horses and rode away until they could no longer be seen. Only then did Yinzhen and the others turn around, get into their carriages, and head back. Outside the city, Yinzhen was still saddened by the departure of his two younger brothers, but once the carriage entered the city and he heard the commotion on the street, his expression changed completely. Good heavens, he immediately performed a special skill for his brother—a face-changing act. If it weren't for the fact that his slightly red eyes hadn't recovered, Yinzhen would have almost thought that the person who had been sitting in front of him sighing was just a figment of his imagination.
"Sigh...sigh...sigh, Fourth Brother, I think I just saw Yajixuan. It's been months since I've come here to drink tea and listen to storytelling. Today, Father Khan finally granted me permission to come out, so I'm determined to have my fill before going back. Stop the car, stop the car, I need to get out..."
Parking? Getting out? You're dreaming! You know, when Khan entrusted you to me today, he said that you had to send him back immediately after you finished your business. You dare to disobey Khan's words and treat them like they're just passing by? Your fourth brother doesn't have your guts. So let's come to Yaxuan next time.
"Don't listen to him, just go back to Changchun Garden..."
Yinzhuo was currently riding in his fourth brother's carriage, which meant that the coachman came from his fourth brother's household. As the saying goes, one who eats the emperor's food must be loyal to the emperor. Now that Yinzhuo and Yinzhen had given their orders almost simultaneously, the coachman naturally had to listen to his master more. As the wheels rolled, Yinzhuo watched his elegant gathering hall getting further and further away from him... further and further away...
"Fourth Brother, I've made up my mind. From now on, we'll cut off all contact until we get back to Shufeng Pavilion. I feel like I need to calm down. Fourth Brother, please turn around and sit down."
Yinzhen wasn't worried at all about Yinzuo's decision to sever ties with him. After all, this guy had unilaterally broken off relations more than once or twice. He could just wait until Yinzuo calmed down. Besides, Yinzuo had given a clear time for reconciliation. He really didn't believe that Yinzuo could hold back for an hour to speak.
Yinzhuo was genuinely angry at first, but the journey from the capital to Changchun Garden was quite long. Initially, Yinzhuo was able to hold back and ignore Yinzhen, but as time went on, his anger gradually subsided.
What's that saying again? I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the light. Yinzhuo's current situation is similar to that. If he were the only one in the carriage, it wouldn't be so bad, but unfortunately, there's Yinzhen next to him. You can imagine the suffering of putting a chatterbox and another person in the same space and not letting him speak.
"Fourth Brother, are you asleep? If you're not asleep, open your eyes and chat with me for a while. How much longer until we get there? I feel like this carriage is moving a bit slowly today."
Yinzhen was not asleep, but after hearing Yinzuo's words, he did not immediately open his eyes to chat with Yinzuo to relieve his boredom. Instead, he spoke in a serious tone.
"I can't chat with you for a while. Don't forget we're still on bad terms. If you want your fourth brother to chat with you, that's fine. We'll chat with you for a while after we get back to Shufeng Pavilion and re-establish our friendship."
Oh ho, so you're using their own words against them, taking what I just said as an example? Fine, I won't say anything more. Anyway, I have a mouth, and I can say whatever I want. Just don't stop me from saying anything later.
"Imperial Jade Liquor, one hundred and eighty yuan a glass. How about it? Let me tell you..."
"In your glorious moment, let me sing you a song. My good brother, if you have any troubles, tell me. We'll walk the road ahead together, even if it's a river, we'll cross it together. What do a little hardship and fatigue matter? When you need me, I'll be there to help you through it all..."
"Smoke rises, the land stretches northward, dragon banners unfurl, horses neigh, swords flash like frost, the heart flows like the vast Yellow River. For twenty years, who could stand against me? Hatred burns wildly. Wherever the long blade points, how many loyal souls of my brothers are buried in foreign lands? I would gladly die a hundred times to repay my country. I can only sigh in sorrow, speechless, my eyes brimming with tears of blood..."
How would Yinzhen retaliate against his fourth brother? It's actually quite simple—a novice can defeat a master with a flurry of punches. Yinzhen then transformed into a walking encyclopedia of Chinese songs, singing whatever came to mind. The song list was chaotic, completely without any discernible pattern. One minute he was talking about the Imperial Jade Wine, and the next he was suddenly on brotherhood. Before Yinzhen could even react, he launched into a tale of unwavering loyalty to the country.
To be fair, Yinzhen was incredibly patient. Yinzuo's noise was so loud that Yinzhi in the carriage ahead poked his head out to look, but Yinzhi remained completely still and unmoved. Yinzuo sang for so long that his throat was dry and sore, but his fourth brother didn't give him any reaction. Feeling bored, he pursed his lips and simply stopped making a fuss. In any case, given the current situation, even if he made a fuss, it would be like trying to wink at a blind man—a complete waste of effort.
"Third Brother, quickly stop your carriage. I want to move to your side. My Fourth Brother not only suddenly lost his voice, but his hearing seems to be failing him too. Look, I was singing so loudly just now, and he didn't even hear me..."
