The Hall of Contemplation.
The King of West Wind, Chu Xianda, was correcting memorials to the throne, while chamberlain Li Fu was serving him tea.
Chu Xianda put down his brush and asked in a bored voice: "Li Fu, is there anything strange recently? Tell me something to relieve my boredom. "
Li Fu knew that his Majesty was getting tired again, promptly served ginseng tea with just the right temperature, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, speaking of strange things, there is really an interesting thing. I heard that Assistant Minister Zhou of the Ministry of Rites has secretly kept a concubine, and that concubine is unfortunately pregnant. This made Assistant Minister Zhou overjoyed. There are three ways to be unfilial, but not having a descendant is the worst. Assistant Minister Zhou has been looking forward to having a son for some years. "
"I don't know how this matter reached Madam Zhou's ears, but Madam Zhou and her family rushed to the concubine's house and shouted to kill. As a result, the concubine had a miscarriage. Assistant Minister Zhou flew into a rage and wanted to divorce his wife, but Madam Zhou did not agree. She shouted all over the street that Assistant Minister Zhou is an ungrateful Chen Shimei, saying that the money he used to take the imperial examination was raised by his family, and now that he is rich, he wants to divorce his wife and find a better one — — Now everyone is watching them. "
Chu Xianda laughed heartily. "Zhou Pingan is also an unlucky guy, he finally had a son, but a shrew ruined it, he must be feeling very bad — —"
"Who said it wasn't?" Li Fu also grinned and laughed.
"What's going on now?"
"Hey, what else can it be? Frozen. One wants to divorce his wife, the other does not agree, jumping up and down, how could it be so easy to solve? "
"What a shrew — —" Chu Xianda said with a smile.
Just then, a little eunuch appeared at the door of the Hall of Contemplation.
Li Fu glanced outside, then hurried over.
The little eunuch bowed and reported for a while before he left. Li Fu trotted over to Chu Xianda's side, saying with a smile: "Your Majesty, didn't you want to hear about strange things? Something strange happened just now. "
"Oh, tell me about it?" Chu Xianda took a sip of the tea and said aloud.
"Because of the children, the Cui family and the Lu Family are at odds."
"Hmm?"
"The young master of the Lu Family and a group of children of the Cui family had a conflict. The Lu Family's Soul Haunting Whip taught a lesson to the children of the Cui family. As a result, the Heart Buddha of the Cui family, Ning Xinhai, came into contact with him, so the two sides began to fight. Now Lord Duke's Gu Mo is leading the Cui family's soldiers over, while Li Kefeng is leading his troops over — — Now both sides are in a deadlock."
Chu Xianda sneered, "When a dog bites a dog, a mouthful of fur. Under the feet of the Emperor, they actually dare to be so lawless. Do they still put me, the Emperor, in their eyes? "
"Your Majesty — —" Li Fu bowed. "Should we issue an edict to reprimand them?"
"No need." Chu Xianda waved his hand. "Let them bite. When two dogs fight, one is bound to get hurt. Letting them tear each other apart will save me a lot of effort. "
"Yes." Li Fu bowed and replied.

Yan Residence.
"Have you heard? The Cui family and the Lu Family are going against each other? Both families sent out their elites to fight — — "
Li family.
"I already knew there would be a fierce battle between the two families, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon. Who do you think has a higher chance of winning? Where are we going to go? "
Song family.
"What's going to happen will happen, but what's going on? Don't worry, don't make a noise, just watch. "

Throughout Tiandu, countless people's line of sight was fixed on the small alley called Wutong Lane, paying close attention to the farce caused by the fight between several children.
----
Gu Mo hesitated, unable to make the next decision.
His master would naturally have thought of the scene happening in front of him, but he still asked him to bring people over, which proves that he has his own deep intentions and plans.
However, if he were to have a head-on conflict with the City Patrol Division, it would certainly bring a lot of trouble to his master — — Is this what he wants?
Leaving would be a sign of weakness, but staying would be useless.
At this moment, Gu Mo felt that his IQ was not enough.
Two soldiers of the City Patrol Division ran over to drag Luo Xu up. Li Kefeng looked at Luo Xu and asked aloud: "Are you all right?"
"I'm fine — — Ugh — —"
As soon as his voice faded, Luo Xu spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Li Kefeng's face darkened as he snapped: "Who hurt you?"
Luo Xu pointed to Gu Mo on the high wall. "He hurt me."
Li Kefeng nodded. "Don't worry. Anyone who hurts people in Tiandu will be severely punished by the law. "
With a wave of his hand, he bellowed in a low voice: "Come, arrest all the suspects."
"Yes." A hundred City Patrol Division soldiers raised their spears and advanced forward. Then came the hundreds of soldiers armed with swords, and finally the archers. They stood motionless in the same place, while the dense rain of arrows shrouded everyone in the alley.
The numerous soldiers of the Cui family all looked at Gu Mo, waiting for him to give a clear signal — — To fight or to flee, they have to make a decision.
"The law is merciless." Gu Mo sneered, pointing to Cui Shaofeng whose hands were rotting. "If the City Patrol Division is so fair and just, then you should also seek justice for this injured youngster? Why don't you ask him who injured his hand and how he injured it? "
Without waiting for Li Kefeng to ask, Cui Shaofeng pointed to Haunting Soul Whip Luo Xu and said: "My hand was injured by him. He is bullying the young and deliberately hurt me. This kind of behaviour is really shameful. "
"Bullying the young?" Li Shinian was furious, glaring at Cui Shaofeng. "Cui Shaofeng, you still have the face to say 'shameful'? When you bullied Lu Tianyu, did you think about your shame? You don't even let a child go, but you say others are bullying the young — — You're the biggest shame, right? "
The source of the matter eventually returned to the incident where Li Shinian attacked Lu Tianyu.
Li Kefeng nodded. "I've more or less understood the whole story. Since you all insist on your own words, then all of you will come with me to the City Patrol Division. The City Patrol Division will certainly give justice to everyone injured. "
Gu Mo naturally did not want to go to the City Patrol Division. It should be said that it was the territory of the Lu Family. Who knows what would happen if he went?
He stared at Li Kefeng, saying aloud: "Li Kefeng, do you really have to be so ruthless?"
"Debts must be paid, murder must be paid with one's life. The law is merciless. "Li Kefeng said in a low voice.
He unsheathed the sabre at his waist and closely followed behind the formation of swords. If the Cui family soldiers resisted, he would take the lead and charge forward.
Gu Mo, wielding a heavy sword, leapt down from the city wall, his huge body blocking the spear of the City Patrol Division, and stood together with the numerous soldiers of the Cui family.
"Kill." Li Kefeng roared.
"Kill." The soldiers of the City Patrol Division roared at the same time.
