Capítulo 1740: Chapter 1731: No Other Choice
“This… I’m afraid I’m in a dilemma!”
Ba Hu’s face appeared shy and hesitant.
“Why, did the elder’s words sound unpleasant?”
The steady current glanced at his eyes, sweeping across his path.
“Don’t be misunderstood by the elders. If there was anything else, I wouldn’t go against the elders’ wishes. But today is such a significant matter, so…”
“So, are you asking your husband to go to Jin Fenglie?”
Heng Shui’s tone changed, and he imdiately brought up Jin Fengli to suppress Ba Hu.
“If the elder wants to go, that would be the best. At that ti, as long as the master asks to release Master Heng, I would have no other choice!”
Ba Hu smiled gently and suddenly stopped being afraid.
Hearing Ba Hu’s words, a trace of anger involuntarily appeared on Heng Shui’s face.
He hadn’t anticipated that a second-rate legal officer would dare speak to him this way.
“Fine! Since you say so, the elder really wants to see what Jin Fenglie will say when he arrives!”
Heng Shui confidently smiled and waved his hand, saying, “Go to the Enforcent Hall alone to find the Great Master.”
Upon saying this, the eight people standing by all looked at Ba Hu.
It was evident they did not obey Heng Liu’s order, even though he was the last Great Master of the Enforcent Hall.
Seeing this, the corners of Heng Liu’s mouth involuntarily lifted up.
He thought, given his original status as the master of the Enforcent Hall, ordering a few soldiers and footn shouldn’t have been a problem.
But unexpectedly, these foot soldiers and soldiers didn’t even regard him.
“Sixth son, go et the master, and tell him the elder wishes to see him!”
After giving Heng Shui a fierce slap, Ba Hu said to a tall official.
After listening to Ba Hu, the official nad Liu Zi nodded heavily, then with a flicker of his silhouette, he flew to the Enforcent Hall.
After a while, Jin Fenglie’s image appeared in the public’s view.
In the Enforcent Hall, more than a dozen officials clad in Purple Armor accompanied him.
“Jintong, I haven’t seen you for days. You have significant authority in the Enforcent realm.”
As Jin Fenglie collapsed to the ground, Heng Shui repeated the old refrain.
Initially, there was a smile on Jin Fenglie’s face, but upon hearing this, it vanished imdiately.
“Old man, from your tone, did my Enforcent Hall offend you?”
Jin Fenglie spun quickly, finally looking at Heng Shui’s river.
“It’s impossible to offend the elder, but his nephews and grandsons were caught by your people. The elder wants to take them away, but your servant won’t let them leave.”
Heng Shui said this, looking coldly at Ba Hu.
“Ba Hu, what’s going on?”
Jin Feng’s eyes quickly darted, suddenly darkening as he looked at A Hu’s path.
“Back to the master, the subordinates want to take Master Heng back because he just participated in an ard conflict.”
“This battle was not an ordinary one. Twenty to thirty people were killed or injured, and I must take Old Master Heng to hear one!”
Ba Hu stepped forward, bowing to Jin Fenglie and speaking.
Upon hearing Ba Hu’s account, Jin Feng turned his head again to gaze at Heng Shui’s river. “You heard the elder’s words. Please, the Enforcent Hall has a duty to interrogate and inquire about those involved in such an event today.”
“Jin Bao, you’re right, but can you let Heng Zhan interrogate the old generation? At that point, the elder will show you the interrogation results. Changqing Battle is my husband’s nephew!”
“Chang Shui” refers to continuous warfare, with profound aning.
In his view, as long as he spoke, Jin Fenglie would help him, even if he was highly positioned.
“I’m afraid not!”
However, much to Heng Shui’s surprise, Jin Fenglie refused his request without hesitation.
“Today’s casualties are so nurous that the Enforcent departnt must conduct a thorough investigation. Thus, we should carefully try everyone doing the right thing!”
After rejecting Heng Liu, Jin added righteously.
His words were not only directed at Heng Liu but also those around him.
“Master of the Golden Palace, won’t you mix in?”
Seeing Jin Fenglie being so disrespectful, Heng Shui imdiately put on a stern face and said.
He no longer referred to Jin Fenglie as “Jintong” but as “Master of the Golden Palace.”
Therefore, Heng Liu seed to sense an unusual sll and began to contemplate the next steps.
“Sorry, elder. If there were sothing else, I would definitely not refuse you. But today, I must handle it carefully!”
Jin Feng’s face turned cold, and even his tone suddenly cooled.
After hearing this, Heng Shui sneered: “Does the Hall Master no longer trust his husband?”
“If the elder doesn’t think this way, then it’s essential!”
Now he planned to turn his face away.
These five fingerprints were clearer than the ones on their faces.
“When the elder speaks, don’t let a little rabbit interrupt!”
Imdiately giving Heng Zhan a slap, Jin Fenglie also mimicked Heng Zhan’s ancient saying.
When he was slapped in public, Heng Zhan quickly raised his hand to cover his cheek. He glared at Jin Fenglie fiercely but didn’t dare to talk back.
Even though he was powerful, he was still fragile compared to Jin Fenglie.
At this mont, if he acted up, given Jin’s fierce nature, he wouldn’t allow another slap.
Such foolishness would not happen a second ti.
“Jin Fenglie, you…”
“What about ?”
“As an elder, must you face the younger generation?”
Heng Shui glared at Jin Fenglie, speaking viciously.
Wen Yan, Jin Feng sneered coldly: “Didn’t I learn from you? Because of one word, my subordinate suddenly said he didn’t understand etiquette.”
“Now, your nephew is of such stature and yet young. As a teacher, I give him a lesson—as one who brings glory to your Hang Family, it seems there’s nothing wrong with that!”
Upon hearing this, the corners of Heng Liu’s mouth twitched fiercely.
Jin Fenglie’s battle wasn’t against Heng Zhan’s face but against Heng Shui’s face.
Unfortunately, this rule was set by his predecessor; now Jin Fenglie treats others similarly, and there is no way for him to counter.
Surprisingly, he could only bla Heng Zhan’s mouth for being too sharp. If Zheng Heng hadn’t interrupted him, his face wouldn’t have been hit.
“Jin Fenglie, you’re truly ruthless!”
After a round of gasping, Heng Liu finally managed to utter a word.
Subsequently, Heng Shui pointed at the crowd, saying, “Jin Fenglie, these people have arrived. Now you should start the trial, see what happened today.”
The elder truly doesn’t believe that my hall and family would be afraid of ghosts and snakes!”
Upon hearing Heng Liu’s final words, a cold sneer appeared at the corners of Ao Cangsheng’s mouth.
“It’s ti to forget about arrogance and domineering. This is ridiculous!”
Ao Cangsheng thought this way, but upon seeing the expressions of the people around him, his smile began to stiffen.
“What should we do? If the Enforcent Hall asks, how should we respond?”
“Can’t you tell the truth?”
“Of course not. Do you dare offend the Hong Family?”
“Sigh, I can’t afford to offend you! How did you put it?”
“I understand, just as Heng Shao said. This way, we can not only offend Heng Jia but also take the opportunity to please Heng Xiao.”
“But that arrogant Cangsheng is not easy to ss with. If we offend him, I’m afraid there won’t be any good outco.”
“What is that? Can he have more power than the Hang Family?”
“Indeed! This is a common thing. As long as it’s definitive, Cangsheng’s life cannot be shrouded!”
“What do you think of our dead person?”
“Oh, that’s true! It’s a pity that the evil spirit like Ao Cangsheng died just like that!”
“Such a pity! Who told him to ss with Heng Xiao? He must bla himself for his death!”
