Chapter 793: Sanxing Hall
For thousands of years, there has been an ironclad rule. If a problem could not be solved, then deal with the person who raised it.
Qi Xuansu could not possibly reverse the main branch’s attitude toward Zhang Yuelu, but he could certainly subdue the juniors who had jumped out to cause trouble.
Lingzhi Garden was very quiet. Aside from the rustling leaves in the wind, no one voiced any objections.
The Zhang family youths were not street thugs but young masters of a noble family. Starting the fight themselves and resorting to a revolving-door-style battle was already disgraceful. Losing on top of that was even worse. If they kept running their mouths after losing a group battle, it would not just be shameful; it would be downright shameless.
Young noblemen did not behave that way.
“I assume none of you have any more objections,” Qi Xuansu said, turning and walking away.
Zhang Chiyue quickly followed behind Qi Xuansu, his feelings conflicted. Though he had hoped for Qi Xuansu’s victory, he did not expect their peers to lose so miserably. As a fellow Zhang, he naturally felt embarrassed.
However, Qi Xuansu acted as if nothing had happened. “That fight took a bit too long. Let’s hurry up and meet the Palace Master.”
Sanxing Hall was the Zhang family patriarch’s residence, but the Heavenly Preceptor was a bachelor without a partner or children. Since he disliked the loneliness that spacious quarters brought, he typically resided in Weiyu Study, which was fully equipped and large enough for him. As a result, Sanxing Hall had long been occupied by Zhang Jucheng.
This was where Zhang Jucheng met with Qi Xuansu.
The Dazhen Mansion had been expanded from the Zhang family’s private estate, with multiple layers of courtyards, making it easy for one to get lost.
