The First Marquis of Leisure

"Brother, Young Master Yuan, you've arrived!"

Upon seeing Yuan Benchu ​​and Yuan Yao, despite having several broken ribs, Wang Bing endured the pain and bowed respectfully as he approached them.

The Wang family's ability to maintain its position as the wealthiest family in the Yan Kingdom would have been impossible without the support of the Yuan family.

"Wang Bing, you did a good job on this."

Yuan Yao snorted coldly, then walked to the cell door and stared at Bai Xinghe.

"Scum, didn't expect that, did you?"

"You think you're safe just because you've latched onto Qian Yuan? You think you can get away with it just because the Seventh Prince said a few words?"

Bai Xinghe stared intently and calmly at Yuan Yao, who was acting like a mad dog.

"The Yuan family held high office for four generations, with disciples and former officials all over the country, yet their descendants turned out to be so despicable!"

"You scum, what did you say?" Yuan Yao cursed angrily.

Bai Xinghe retorted without hesitation, "What did I say? Are you deaf?"

"Someone, open the door! This young master is going to give this bastard a good beating today."

Yuan Yao roared and ordered the jailers to open the cell door.

Bai Xinghe wasn't flustered at all. Judging by the time, Qian Yuan had probably already arrived at the Doctor's residence.

When the Doctor's Mansion intervenes, the Yuan family won't dare to act recklessly!

"Yuan Benchu, Yuan Yao, I'm telling you right now, you can't touch me!"

Bai Xinghe didn't want to suffer physical pain for nothing, so he tried to delay as much as possible.

"Heh." Yuan Benchu, who had been silent until now, finally spoke.

He took a few steps forward, and everyone made way for him.

As the eldest son of a prominent family in the capital of Yan, his status and position were quite extraordinary.

"Do you really think I'm afraid of Qian Yuan?"

"Qian Yuan is nothing in my eyes. He was only doing this to give the Seventh Prince face that day."

Bai Xinghe snorted coldly in return: "So what if you come from a family of high-ranking officials? You don't respect Brother Qian, and likewise, you two brothers are nothing in Brother Qian's eyes."

"Hahaha!" Yuan Benchu ​​laughed wildly, his laughter filled with disdain.

"Could it be that Qian Yuan, that good-for-nothing, has really become Dr. Li's last disciple?"

"We'll find out soon enough," Bai Xinghe said jokingly.

"Brother, don't waste your breath on this bastard. He's trying to stall for time. Let's get him beaten up first to vent our anger."

Yuan Yao realized that Bai Xinghe was trying to stall for time, so he jumped out to interrupt.

However, in Yuan Benchu's view, even if Bai Xinghe delayed, it would be meaningless.

Bai Xinghe's greatest reliance is Qian Yuan. Even if he drags it out until Qian Yuan invites Qian Guanglu, what then?

He had already taken care of everything last night; no one in the world could save Bai Xinghe!

Yuan Benchu ​​waved his hand, signaling Yuan Yao to shut up.

Then, with a mixture of interest and disdain, he looked at Bai Xinghe and said mockingly, "A Zhao citizen, huh? You're clever and courageous, but your mistake was offending the Yuan family!"

"Since you're trying to stall for time, then I'll give you some. I'd like to see who can save you!"

Seeing that Yuan Benchu ​​had taken the bait, Bai Xinghe breathed a sigh of relief.

Otherwise, before Qian Yuan arrived with the people from the Doctor's Mansion, he would have been subjected to a torment.

"How long does it take to get here from the doctor's residence?"

"Ha, only half an hour," Yuan Benchu ​​said dismissively.

Bai Xinghe nodded and calmly said, "Half an hour will be enough!"

"What? You think someone will come to rescue you in half an hour?" Yuan Benchu ​​couldn't help but sneer.

"Whether there's anyone there or not, just wait and see," Bai Xinghe said confidently.

Although Yuan Yao and Wang Bing thought it unnecessary to wait half an hour, they directly ordered the jailers to take action first.

But since Yuan Benchu, as the eldest brother, had already agreed, they dared not disobey.

"You worthless piece of trash, I'd like to see what you can do with half an hour."

"Let me tell you, if Qian Yuan is so foolish as to act recklessly in prison, I'll deal with him too, understand?"

Bai Xinghe dismissed it with disdain and fell silent.

What he was worried about was not whether Qian Yuan could save him, but what would happen if the people from the Doctor's Mansion came and recognized him.

However, things have come to this point, and there's no use thinking about it too much; we can only take it one step at a time.

As time quietly passed, the prison became very quiet.

Wang Bing, Yuan Yao had already instructed many of his servants to go out and bring in some food, and then he also instructed the jailers to prepare a large number of instruments of torture in advance.

Bai Xinghe remained calm, sitting in his cell with his eyes closed in deep thought.

About half an hour later, sure enough, there was some noise coming from outside the cell.

"Brother, I'm here!"

Immediately afterward, Qian Yuan's anxious voice rang out, and then Qian Yuan rushed in with a person in a great hurry.

Upon seeing Qian Yuan arrive, the Yuan brothers and Wang Bing and the others stood up unhurriedly.

Bai Xinghe also opened his eyes and immediately saw that the person who came with Qian Yuan was none other than Li Ming. His expression was somewhat strange.

Li Ming also saw him at a glance, and was equally shocked, almost shouting out!

"Brother, are you alright? Those bastards didn't touch you, did they?"

As soon as Qian Yuan entered, he ignored the Yuan brothers, Wang Bing, and the others, and ran to the prison cell door.

Bai Xinghe nodded and smiled, "Don't worry, I'm fine!"

"Heh, something's about to happen." Yuan Benchu ​​stood up at this moment.

Although he recognized it at a glance, Qian Yuan had indeed brought someone from the Doctor's residence.

But that doesn't mean anything; with the influence of the Yuan family, they could also get people from the Doctor's Mansion to come.

"Qian Yuan, you're asking for trouble! You insist on going against me and the Yuan family for the sake of a dead man. Do you really think I can't deal with you?"

"Yuan Benchu, do you really think you're the boss?" Qian Yuan snorted coldly, completely disregarding Yuan Benchu.

"If you know what's good for you, apologize to my brother right now. And you, Wang Bing, you piece of trash, you think you're so tough?"

"Heh, Qian Yuan, who do you think you are, making my brother apologize to you?" Yuan Yao couldn't stand it anymore and jumped out, immediately ordering his servants to take action.

Qian Yuan, however, didn't care and stuck his face out.

"Come on, Yuan Benchu, Yuan Yao, if you two brothers don't dare to touch me today, I'll really look down on you."

"Attack! Attack him for me!" Yuan Yao had already lost his temper and roared at his servants.

"Hehe, it seems the two young masters of the Yuan family and the young master of the Wang family don't take me seriously."

At that moment, Li Ming finally spoke.

"Brother Li, I know you were invited by Qian Yuan to back you up, and I'll tell you the truth."

"We, the Yuan family, have our hands on this man in the prison. Brother Li, please don't interfere. We, the Yuan family, will certainly give you a satisfactory explanation afterward!"

Li Ming's facial muscles twitched; he really hadn't expected to run into Bai Xinghe here!

At the same time, the moment he saw Bai Xinghe, he understood everything!

No wonder Qian Yuan was suddenly able to compose such amazing poems.

Now everything has come to light!

Contrary to Bai Xinghe's own worries, Li Chentian, along with many talented individuals from the Doctor's Mansion, not only did not hold a grudge against him, but instead genuinely admired and respected him!

"Young Master Yuan, I've come only to tell you something!"

"What is it, Brother Li? Please speak!"

Li Ming said calmly, "It's nothing serious. Just yesterday, Dr. Li accepted Young Master Qian as his last disciple!"
