Chapter 493: 493: Besieged on All Sides (Part 2)



He kept shaking his head with a tsk-tsk sound, pretending to sigh a few times. He then tugged at the luxurious clothes he was wearing.

He deliberately dressed up today, wearing a snow-white fox fur coat, an outer layer of thick and shiny silk, dyed in a beautiful blue, accentuating his already handsome face and adding a touch of elegance. In contrast to Di Yelei, who was sitting on the ground with a numb expression, they were obviously not in the same league.

Di Yelei slightly raised his eyebrows to look at him, then tilted his head to focus on the entrance of the county government office, not even willing to give him a direct look.

He had bought his official uniform in the government office for 50 taels of silver. At the time, there were no extra uniforms in stock at the office, leaving only this half-new and half-old one stored in a corner. With no other choice, he reluctantly paid for it. Perhaps it was due to being stored for too long, the colors appeared especially faded.

Zhang Shixin laughed proudly, walking even closer to Di Yelei and standing above him as he looked down.

“Huh? Lord Di, are you having hearing problems? You’re ignoring and pretending not to hear me? I’ve never heard of you having this kind of hidden condition before.”

“Get away! What kind of clown are you, hopping around here?”

Di Yelei casually waved his hand as if he could brush away the annoying clown in front of him with a single sweep.

“You! How dare you, Di Yelei!? You actually have the nerve to call me a clown?”

Zhang Shixin stomped his foot and pointed at Di Yelei while cursing.

Di Yelei suddenly stood up from the stone steps, looked at him disdainfully with his hands crossed on his chest.

“What are you even? No matter what, I am a respectable seventh-ranked official. You have no merit nor official position. What right do you have to shout and be arrogant in front of me?”

He stood with his hands behind his back, his hair slightly scattered by the wind, looking dignified and solemn. In that half-old government uniform, his face appeared even more authoritative, a far cry from the simple country boy he once was in Upper Village.

Zhang Shixin instinctively shrank his neck, a chill running down from the back of his mind, making him shudder. However, he quickly got over it, his face flushed.

He had actually been intimidated by this country bumpkin just now!

Taking another two steps forward, he tugged at his own fox fur coat, roaring angrily.

“You dare to call yourself an official with your pathetic sub-captain position? Don’t forget, I am still your brother-in-law, and now a distinguished eighth-rank instructor. You think I can’t strip you of your dog skin with just one word?”

Some days ago, when Gan Jiayou returned to his hometown and hurriedly left, he did not prefer Shen Qiu. After leaving, he arranged for Zhang Shixin to become an eighth-rank county instructor as a consideration for Shen Qiu.

“You’re right, I don’t believe it. Do you want to give it a try?”

Di Yelei suddenly laughed, revealing a bright and shiny row of white teeth!

“As for that so-called brother-in-law, how come I, Di Yelei, don’t remember having a sister? Even Lord Gan doesn’t seem to have heard of his eldest miss. It seems that any random cat or dog, or even prostitutes and servants, are pretending to be the eldest misses, shamelessly!”

Zhang Shixin could no longer hold his smile, glaring at him with a ferocious expression!

His lifelong hatred was people mentioning that Shen Qiu was an illegitimate child, and that even now, Gan Jiayou still refused to acknowledge Shen Qiu as his daughter! How could he not be angry when Di Yelei brought it up in this way?

“What are you damned fools doing? He’s just a country bumpkin, if anything happens, I, Zhang Shixin, will take care of it! Get him! Beat him to death!”

The commotion here had already attracted the attention of the pedestrians nearby. Seeing a large group of servants rushing towards the scene, they quickly dispersed and fled.

Soon, this area in front of the government office, which was already avoided by passers-by, became even emptier, without a single bystander in sight.

The noise here naturally alarmed the two governmental office’s runners nearby. The two looked at each other and quickly ran into the office to report.

Seeing the situation going awry, Er Niu, who stood beside Di Yelei, hastily moved in front of him with a challenging stance, his legs trembling nonetheless.

“Who dares do anything? Our Old Master is a sub-captain, are you really not afraid of death?”

He barked threateningly.

A mocking look flashed across Di Yelei’s eyes as he took the horse whip from Er Niu’s hand and pushed him behind himself.

Taking two steps forward, Di Yelei spread his feet apart, bent the whip in his hand, and pointed casually.

“If they want to commit suicide, let them come! I really want to see if they dare or not!”

This provocation instantly enraged Zhang Shixin!

“Attack! Beat him to death!”

Zhang Shixin bellowed and commanded his men to approach Di Yelei.

These servants were long accustomed to following orders, and with Zhang Shixin now holding an official position, their arrogance grew even more, not taking others seriously at all.

They rushed towards Di Yelei one after another…

Thump! Thump! Thump…

The sound of fists landing on flesh rang out. Before Zhang Shixin could understand what was happening before his eyes, the many servants in front of him vanished without a trace.

He rubbed his eyes subconsciously, wanting to see more clearly!

By the time his eyes were wide open again, the scene before him had changed drastically.

Less than five feet from him, people were piled up like stacking arhats, their cries of pain echoing nonstop from the pile.

Zhang Shixin shuddered and instinctively looked up to see the man who was still standing at the scene!

Di Yelei still held the horse whip while pointing forward casually with his right hand. If there was any difference from before, it was that the whip was no longer bent; instead, it hung down to the ground, dragging a bloody trail, evidently having been dyed red with fresh blood!

The man’s face remained calm, looking at him with provocative eyes.

Zhang Shixin kept rubbing his eyes in disbelief, mumbling to himself.

“Impossible! How can it be? It’s impossible…”

How could his opponent move so fast? There must be someone helping him!

Right, there must be. Didn’t he have a servant behind him?

Standing behind Di Yelei, Er Niu could hardly believe his own eyes!

Having followed Di Yelei for these days, witnessing his daily hard work between the armory and the government office, it was his first time discovering that Di Yelei had such incredible skills! How could he not be shaken!

Di Yelei took two steps forward and chuckled lightly, “So? Would you like to try it yourself?”

These words made Zhang Shixin instinctively jump, almost turning to run. How could he be a match for such a fierce opponent!

“Stop! Everyone, stop!”

At the moment when Zhang Shixin had no way out, the closed gate of the government office finally opened!
