    The madam smiled and asked the strong men to surround the stage. Then he bowed down and apologized to the guests around him: "Dear guests, I'm telling you this is a joke. This girl's father owed us a huge sum of money from gambling. He agreed to get his daughter to pay off the debt, but she  You just don¡¯t admit it. Dear guests, please comment, repaying debts is a matter of course, what¡¯s wrong with us?¡±

    "That's right." One customer shouted. Although other customers did not speak, some of them nodded. After all, paying back debts is a matter of course.

    "You guys worked together to deceive my father." The tearful girl on the stage had something to say, pointing out that everything was a scam.

    "Which one deceived your father? Did you put a sword to his neck and force him to gamble, or did you use brute force to snatch the money from his pocket, or was there a shortage of money I lent him?" "No one forced him to gamble.  He gambled all by himself. No one robbed him of his money, he lost it himself. He borrowed money from me, and I would give him as much as he asked for. I would never give him less. I would use the money before it came back as promised.  To be honest, we are all losing money when it comes to paying off our daughter's debts. If you weren't young and pretty, you wouldn't be worth five thousand dollars at all." The madam with heavy makeup was confident, and the customers around her also supported her, so she was just showing off.  so much.

    The girl¡¯s face turned red with anger. She really didn¡¯t know what to say, so she could only say: ¡°I can do needlework. As long as you give me time, I can return the money to you.¡±

    The old bustard laughed, shook his head and refused: "If everyone is like you who refuses to pay back their debts and bargains, how can the country of Qi be better? When they are in debt, they agree to everything quickly, but when they repay the debts, they push back and forth, and the world  There is no such reason. Since you are unwilling to stay, then we have no choice but to use violence."

    The four big men around her were ready to attack, just waiting for an order to take her down. This kind of thing happened not only once or twice, but they were all used to it.  When I first came here, I would always cry "Daddy and Mother", but once I get used to it, I won't resist anymore.  Although the n¨¹lu is a place where innocence is betrayed, you can have food and drink, and you don't have to be beaten as long as you obey. You will quickly adapt to it if you stay here, and then you won't be able to extricate yourself.

    Zhuang Zhou stood on the second floor and watched this scene of bullying. He felt that Linzi was not so beautiful.  It can be said that as long as you understand anything deeply, you will find that it is far from your imagination.

    At first, Zhuang Zhou thought that Jixia Academy must be a place where scholars talked eloquently and ran wild, but he didn¡¯t expect to see the big cauldron cooking him on the first day.  I thought that Linzi was a place where the world's wealth gathered, and the people must be very happy, but I didn't expect to see a scene of forcing girls into prostitution on the first day.

    There is a huge difference between reality and imagination, and it is far less comfortable and beautiful than the countryside of Song Dynasty.

    Although the countryside was very poor, and Zhuang Zhou was just a small official looking after the lacquer garden, he argued with the farmers, observed small animals in the lacquer garden, and thought about the use of useless things. Although it was monotonous, it was also interesting. No one would bully him.  , I will not bully others.  When we arrived in the big city of Linzi, we clearly felt uncomfortable. Everyone's life seemed to be beyond their control.

    The people of Linzi are all manipulated by fame and fortune to do some incredible and inexplicable things.  Needless to say, Dadingzuo himself, but the forced prostitution in front of him is equally infuriating.

    "Don't you have a mother or a daughter? Are you willing to let a woman from your family have a daughter-in-law?" the girl said excitedly, she would never give in.

    "Catch her." The madam's patience was limited.

    "Stop, have you forgotten that without women, Guanzi would have starved to death in the Lu State, and our Qi State would not be what it is today. You force women so hard, are you worthy of the Lu cook who brought Guanzi food?"  A female voice came from the door, and then a group of soldiers rushed in and took control of the scene.

    The guests were shocked. No one expected that someone would bring troops in.

    When everyone found out that the person leading the troops was a woman, they were even more surprised.

    A middle-aged woman wearing a palace skirt calmly stepped into the female house and stopped a tragedy.

    "Who is it?" Zhuang Zhou turned around and asked.

    But Xu Gong and others shook their heads. They didn't recognize him either.

    "I wonder why your lady wants to get involved in this shop?" The old madam was calm. After all, her daughter paid protection fees to King Qi every year and was part of King Qi's pocket. There was no need to be afraid.

    "I was passing by outside and heard someone shouting here, so I came in to take a look. I think she was right. You are also a woman. Why do you want to embarrass women? When Guanzi was imprisoned in the State of Lu, if it weren't for the cook of the State of Lu,  She sent food and drinks, but he could not return to Qi. When he returned, Guanzi thanked him with generous gifts. Why don't we learn the righteousness of the cooks of Lu and save people in danger?"

    But the old bustard said: "I don't care about this. Their family owed money and refused to pay it back. They agreed to pay off the debt with their daughter. I did nothing wrong."

    "There is no shortage of women"Money?  The daughter-in-law is not short of money, but there are some things that money cannot buy, such as righteousness.  Don¡¯t you know the meaning of Meng Ke in Jixia Academy?  Even the King of Qi praised Master Meng for sacrificing his life for righteousness.  The daughter-in-law has enough money, but I don't see your righteousness.  "

    "Who is this person?" Zhuangzi couldn't help but ask again, because this was not something that ordinary women could say. When he opened his mouth, he quoted scriptures, kept up with current events, had allusions and knowledge, and the madam and all the guests were dumbfounded.

    "I remembered that this should be the baby of a strange woman. She was the head of the female officials in the palace and someone whom King Qi respected very much. I had long heard that there was a baby in the palace who was eloquent and gave many warnings.  The King of Qi paid great attention to state affairs, and his reputation spread far and wide to Zhao. Even the King of Zhao and the Queen Mother asked the envoy of Qi: "Is the baby in Beigong safe?" Xu Gong thought of a person, a special palace maid.

    "No wonder they can mobilize the imperial guards." Qingji said, "That's right, it must be her."

    There were also other guests who recognized the baby. Although they had never seen her before, there were not many women with such a famous reputation and high status, and it had to be her.

    The madam also realized that she was unlucky. She didn¡¯t expect that the baby would pass by the door. It seemed that this time she really had no choice but to spend money to avoid disaster and spend money to buy righteousness.  If it were someone else, she would definitely not care, but Baby was a woman respected by the King of Qi, so she had to give her face.  So the old bustard could only say aggrievedly: "Your lady is right, our store does lack kindness and justice. I am willing to use money to exchange for things we don't have." A team of strong men ordered: "Let her go."

    The strong men had been frightened for a long time. They only dared to show off their power to the female concubine. They did not dare to be arrogant when facing the guards in the Qi Palace. They were as well-behaved as kittens.

    The girl quickly hid behind the baby, her eyes filled with admiration and gratitude for this savior who had descended from heaven.

    Baby boy looked at everyone present and said, "I hope you won't forget how Guanzi treated the cook of Lu State, and don't forget how Master Meng said he was right." After warning, he turned around and left.

    The guards also filed out, but the customers who stayed in the store obviously lost interest and paid their bills and left.

    Zhuang Zhou and others also paid the bill and went home. They agreed to meet again later, and Xu Gong went north.

    The streets were still very lively, and the gambling stalls were still full of noise. Zhuang Zhou felt frightened and thought that Qi was not as powerful as he thought.

    "With a noble status, even if you don't pursue wealth, wealth will come. After you are rich, even if you don't pursue delicious food, delicious food will come. After enjoying delicious food, even if you don't pursue arrogance and luxury, arrogance and luxury will come.  Please come. After living a luxurious life, even if you want to avoid death, death will come." "Linzi, Qi, has lived in such a luxurious environment for generations, and will eventually perish." Zhuangzi said as soon as he returned to the small courtyard.  With such emotion, I can only say that smart people are smart people. They can see the essence and Linzi's problems at a glance.  This city has long been corrupted by pride and luxury, and without the possibility of forge ahead, it will eventually be wiped out.
