Chapter 259: Venting Out the Anger on Behalf of My Nephew Half an hour later. Gu Chan brought Wang Tianxiao and Ding Xiang to the lobby in front. Seeing this, the chief clerk stepped forward and asked, "Little brother, what are they doing?" "They quit, I want to take them away." Gu Chan said coldly. "Hmph! Who do you think you are! Not only do you come here, but you also want to take people away from our Ministry of War? Is our Ministry of War a place where you can come and go as you please?" The chief clerk's face changed instantly and he cursed. "Snapped!" The next second, a scene that shocked everyone present appeared. Gu Chan was too lazy to say anything. She raised her little hand, aimed at the chief clerk's mean face, and slapped him hard in the face. The chief clerk was stunned on the spot. All the civil servants stopped what they were doing and stared at Gu Chan in disbelief. Wang Tianxiao and Ding Xiang were also dumbfounded. They never expected that Gu Chan was so bold that he even dared to beat the Chief Clerk of the Ministry of War!
The chief clerk was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and glared at Gu Chan and yelled, "Okay! You even dare to hit me, you don't want to live anymore, right?" "How dare you, Xiao Xiao, come from here and come to our military department to fight people." "Someone come! Drag him out and beat him to death." "Yes, you can't let him off easily. Beat him to death." The civil servants also shouted angrily. Ren Yin and Yan Kuan, who were drinking tea in the small house at the back, were startled and hurried out of the house. Arriving in front of the chief clerk, Yan Kuan asked, "What are you arguing about?" "Sir, this kid just hit me." The chief clerk said with a grim face. Yan Kuan subconsciously glanced at Ren Yin standing next to him. Seeing him standing there motionless with his arms folded and no reaction on his face, he immediately got angry and glared at Gu Chan and shouted, "Why did you hit someone?" "My three friends came to the Ministry of War in Kyoto for further studies with General Long Zhen's recommendation documents in hand, but he arranged them to do odd jobs in the backyard. They have been working hard for more than several months. Lord Yan, do you think those who ignore General Long should be punished?" Gu Chan said righteously. "Hmph! Even if we need to fight, it's not your turn. You are so bold. You are just a young boy, yet you dare to be so rampant in the Ministry of War. If it weren't for the fact that you were brought by the master of Tianji Pavilion, do you believe that I would arrest you right now, put you in jail and execute you?" Yan Kuan raised his finger and pointed at Gu Chan and scolded. Since the Minister of War is not here now, he is naturally the boss of the Ministry of War. Now his chief clerk has been beaten up in front of him by Gu Chan. How can he lead this group of people if he doesn't step up? Gu Chan glanced at Yan Kuan coldly. "Snapped!" Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, she raised her hand again, aimed it at Yan Kuan's face, and slapped him directly in the face. Because she hit him so hard, Yan Kuan was knocked around on the spot and staggered, almost falling to the ground. If the chief clerk hadn't reached out to help him, he would have really fallen to the ground. Standing up straight, Yan Kuan covered half of his face with his hands, his eyes wide open, his face full of disbelief, "Great! You are so brave! Beating the chief clerk is fine, but you even dare to beat me, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War. You simply don't want to live anymore." "I tell you, the boy who is still doing odd jobs in the backyard is my good nephew. From now on, if you let him do odd jobs again, I will not forgive you." Gu Chan pointed at Yan Kuan's nose and cursed. Yan Kuan was so angry that his whole body was shaking. He shouted to the outside, "Where is the person? Where did he go? Come and drag him down and beat him with a hundred sticks first." "You dare." Gu Chan said with her chest puffed out. After that, she quickly took out the Tianji Order from her sleeve and held it high in front of Yan Kuan.
Yan Kuan and others were stunned at first, and then lost their temper in an instant. They never thought that this kid, who looked ordinary in clothes, actually held the Tianji Order and was a member of the Tianji Pavilion! No wonder the Tianji Pavilion's secret agent Ren Yin would bring her here personally. After all this time, it turned out that she was willing to come because she was a member of the Tianji Pavilion. Gu Chan sneered and said, "Master Yan, didn't you want to beat me with a hundred sticks? Why don't you beat me now?" "Please forgive me, sir. We didn't know you were from Tianji Pavilion!" Yan Kuan said with an apologetic smile. "So now you know?" Gu Chan shouted coldly. Yan Kuan and the chief clerk nodded quickly. You must know that the Tianji Pavilion is directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor in Kyoto, and the status of the six ministries of Tiancang Kingdom is still below that of the Tianji Pavilion. Therefore, the people of the Tianji Pavilion have a lot of weight in front of the people of the six ministries. Normally, everyone is courteous to each other and will not easily quarrel unless it is absolutely necessary. The reason why Gu Chan was so domineering and attacked the Minister of War and the Chief Clerk was because her nephew had been abused here for more than several months, which was understandable. According to the rules in Kyoto, if the people from the Six Ministries do not give face to the Tianji Pavilion first, then the people from the Tianji Pavilion can naturally teach the people from the Six Ministries a lesson. This has long been an unwritten rule agreed upon between the two parties. Otherwise, Yan Kuan and others would not be so polite to Gu Chan. Ren Yin, who had been standing by and had not spoken, stood up and said, "Alright, these two slaps are compensation for his three friends who were abused by your Ministry of War for several months. Lord Yan and Lord Zhubu, I hope you can just let it go and make a big deal out of a small matter, or you will bear the consequences yourself." "Yes, yes, your Excellency is right, this is all our fault! We did not make proper arrangements for his relatives and friends, we were rude. Please rest assured, I will make proper arrangements for his nephew and let him study well in the Ministry of War." Yan Kuan apologized with a smile. Gu Chan asked, "Then I'm going to take these two away now. Do you have any objections?" "Of course I have no objection, sir, you can take it away." Yan Kuan agreed hurriedly. Gu Chan put away the Tianji Order without saying a word, turned around and left with Wang Tianxiao and Ding Xiang. Ren Yin suppressed his smile, crossed his arms across his chest, and followed the three people away silently. After sending the four away, Yan Kuan's face turned blue with anger. He raised his hand and slapped the chief clerk in the face, staring at him and scolding, "You bastard, you are the one who caused all this. I told you to assign them tasks as you wish, but I didn't tell you to assign them to do odd jobs! Now you're fine, right? If we offend the head of the Tianji Pavilion, he will be dissatisfied and will find trouble with us at will. He will report us to the emperor. Sooner or later, we will be finished." "Oh, sir! How would I know that boy is the nephew of Tianji Pavilion! What should we do now?" The chief clerk asked with a red and swollen face and a crying voice. “What should we do? Hurry up and make arrangements for that little ancestor. Give him a desk here so that he can study under you.” Yan Kuan yelled angrily. The chief clerk nodded hurriedly and ran out of the hall quickly towards the backyard. "What are you looking at? Get to work." Yan Kuan shouted at the civil servants. The civil servants were so frightened that they immediately lowered their heads and dealt with the matters at hand. Yan Kuan felt better after venting his anger, so he turned around and walked into the small room at the back, where he sat alone and sulked. (End of this chapter)
