Although the thieves have retreated, they will surely return with a vengeance, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that they could raze Zhen Family Village to the ground.

Now, her son Zhen Yao is injured, her husband Zhen Yi is away on business, and the servants and laborers on the estate have been killed in the attack and are all dead.

The local government in Wuji County is even less reliable!

How could a woman like her know how to deal with this?

Seeing Liu Wei's confident and composed demeanor, Zhang couldn't help but place the hopes of the entire village on him alone.

"Quickly, prepare food and wine for this hero!"

Upon hearing Liu Wei's request, she hurriedly instructed the servants to do so, and then she led her son and servants to evacuate all the injured servants back into the manor.

The gates of the manor were tightly shut, leaving only Liu Wei and Zhang Baiqi outside.

Before long, a table of delicious dishes was served.

Liu Wei immediately left Zhang Baiqi, who was bound hand and foot, and dragged him to watch him drink.

Just as he was about to pour himself some wine, the gate to the manor opened, and Zhen Mi ran out.

Zhang Baiqi's eyes lit up immediately, and he was so shocked by Zhen Mi's beauty that he drooled.

"Sir, you are a great benefactor of the Zhen family, yet you are left to face the enemy alone outside the manor!"

"Although I have no martial arts skills, I have read some books and know some benevolence and righteousness! Let me pour wine for you, sir, and help you fight off the enemy!"

Just now, although Zhen Mi was inside the mansion, she had already learned everything that was happening outside.

She never expected that entrusting Liu Wei with the safety of her mother and brother would not only save her mother in times of crisis, but also single-handedly drive away thousands of bandits.

Such spirit and courage must belong to a hero of the world!

This person is the one I, Zhen Mi, can entrust my life to.

So, ignoring her sisters' and Zhang's attempts to stop her, she ran out!

"Ha ha!"

Liu Wei burst into hearty laughter. It seemed that Zhen Mi's heart already belonged to him.

This reminded him of when he was demoted to Shuofang in Beiman Mountain, and Diaochan stood up and vowed to follow him to the death.

Although he later learned that Diao Chan had ulterior motives, Liu Wei was deeply moved at the time.

Unexpectedly, I now feel the same affection in Zhen Mi.

It seems my trip to the Zhen family disguised as a commoner was worthwhile.

"Miss Zhen, what a remark!"

"Though there be millions of people, I will still go!"

"Pour the wine!"

Zhen Mi was so shocked by Liu Wei's words that she trembled all over: "Even if there are thousands of people, I will still go!"

"How magnificent! I am so fortunate to know you, sir!"

"A toast to you, sir!"

The two exchanged glances, leaving Zhang Baiqi, who was standing nearby, dumbfounded.

So this guy who captured me, dismissed my men, and summoned the commander-in-chief seems to have come specifically to woo the fifth young lady of the Zhen family!

Zhang Baiqi, the commander of the Black Mountain Army cavalry who was renowned throughout Jizhou, Changshan, Zhongshan, and Zhao, actually became someone else's background character.

"Can you guys stop being so mushy? And could you guys get me some wine? You're making me feel so overwhelmed by all this PDA, I can hardly swallow it!"

Zhang Baiqi watched enviously as Liu Wei, accompanied by Zhen Mi, drank and ate heartily, and couldn't help but shout loudly.

Seeing how pitiful he was, Liu Wei was about to give him a little something to get rid of him.

Unexpectedly, footsteps sounded outside the manor, and hundreds of men in black emerged like mushrooms after rain.

"These are your commander's men?"

Seeing that these people were all wearing black headscarves, dressed in tight-fitting clothes, and holding crossbows with murderous intent, Liu Wei frowned and asked.

"They're not our people! The two thousand of us who came to Wuji are all cavalry!"

Zhang Baiqi immediately shouted, "There is no such person by the General's side!"

Suddenly, a murderous aura surged.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The sound of something cutting through the air rang out!

not good!

Liu Wei immediately sensed danger approaching, so he flashed and shielded Zhen Mi behind him.

As for Zhang Baiqi, he naturally shielded him in front of him!
