Chapter 130 Return to Beijing
Pei Luoshu's arms, which were holding Chen Shiyi, froze.
It took him a long time to utter a word.
"Is it the eldest master?"
Chen Shiyi shook his head.
"I left the mansion and have nothing to do with him."
"Who is that?"
Chen Shiyi pushed Pei Luoshu away and looked at him calmly.
"I once encountered an assassination attempt in Kyoto, and someone saved me. I promised to marry him."
"That time in Kyoto?"
Pei Luoshu's face flashed with confusion, then he closed his eyes slightly and sighed softly.
"I was a step behind after all."
Chen Shiyi could not see anything unusual on Pei Luoshu's face, so he turned his head away and choked up.
"A Luo, I'm sorry. My actions caused you to misunderstand me. I apologize to you. There will be better girls waiting for you to like in the future, and she will like you too."
"I have roughly sorted out the tea business during this period. I can return to Yanzhou tomorrow. It just so happens that I came here to say goodbye to you."
After Chen Shiyi finished speaking, he stood up and was about to leave, but Pei Luoshu grabbed his wrist tightly.
His face was pale, his eyes were red, and he looked so pitiful.
"Eleven, don't you want me anymore?"
"Are you going to say goodbye to me again?"
Chen Shiyi felt empty inside and thought that he was very cruel.
"No, we will definitely be friends in the future."
Pei Luo cleared his throat and his voice became very hoarse.
"Eleven, do you remember? I told you before that I would be your lifelong support, and I will definitely do it. No matter who you belong to, if you are wronged, you can come to me. I will be your backer. Just don't lose contact with me in the future, okay?"
Chen Shiyi sat on the small couch in a daze, without saying a word.
"It's just a small request, Eleven."
Finally, Chen Shiyi nodded.
"good."
The next day, before leaving Yougu County, Chen Shiyi wanted to talk to Pei Luoshu.
Just as he entered the county government office, he met Ying Xiu who had been arrested.
Pei Luoshu walked towards Chen Shiyi in a hurry, looking normal, as if last night's entanglement was just a dream.
"Are you leaving now?"
"Well, I'm going back to Yanzhou. Bailing is waiting for me in front."
"good."
Chen Shiyi held a stack of papers in his hand.
"If Yougu County wants to build a road, these are some of my ideas. You can just take a look at them, but they are not binding."
Pei Luoshu took it, took a quick look at it, and showed a look of delight.
"You write very well, and your handwriting is pretty good now."
"Humph, what a pair of bastards."
Ying Xiu, who was being held nearby, spat on the ground.
She laughed loudly at Pei Luoshu.
"You, a dog official, will also be abandoned by a woman one day. You are right not to want her. This woman is a woman of a fickle nature. The Marquis of Kyoto and the Ninth Prince in the Imperial Palace are all her followers. Otherwise, how could she, a woman, open such a big shop in Yanzhou and no one dares to mess with her? How could everything go smoothly for her?"
Chen Shiyi asked.
"Are you the bandits from Lingyu Villa? Why did you accept my order and follow me to Valley County?"
Ying Xiu sneered.
"You are here enjoying the moonlight with your man, but your backyard is about to catch fire. I am not afraid to tell you that we have sent the news that you were intercepted by bandits to Lingyu Villa some time ago. I don't know how things are going in Yanzhou. Maybe they are preparing to redeem Wanguan's wealth."
Chen Shiyi asked calmly.
"So, you never intended to let me go back from the beginning?"
"Yeah, what are you going to do? I can't do anything to you in Yanzhou, but I can do something to you outside."
"But you can't do anything to me outside."
"It was just a miscalculation this time, but Yanzhou will still proceed according to the original plan."
"Humph, woman, you will still not die a good death if you return to Yanzhou."
Puff, a cold sword pierced directly into Ying Xiu's chest.
Blood gushed out from Ying Xiu's body.
Pei Luoshu's eyes were deep, and he pulled out the sword expressionlessly. He took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood off the sword, and threw the handkerchief on the ground.
"Who are you to yell at her?"
Chen Shiyi raised his eyes and looked at Pei Luoshu worriedly.
Pei Luoshu comforted.
"Don't worry, her plan won't work. I sent a message to my friend a while ago. If he has any news, he will let me know immediately. Also, I have asked my friend to take good care of your friends and family. Don't worry."
After saying that, he took the cage from Fu Feng's hand behind him.
Chen Shiyi was very curious.
"What is this?"
"It's a carrier pigeon."
"Pigeon?"
"Yes, these two pigeons, no matter where they end up, will eventually fly into my hands. Take them away. If there is any emergency, let me know immediately and I will do my best to help you."
Chen Shiyi just stared at him blankly.
Pei Luoshu smiled and reached out to touch the tip of her nose.
"I will send the county lieutenant to take you to the city. I have already found a reliable escort agency in the city. They will take good care of you along the way."
"Thank you, Luo."
"No need to thank me, it's just a small matter. I will write you a letter, and you must remember to reply to me later. Got it?"
"Um."
Chen Shiyi nodded.
"Then I'm leaving."
"good."
Watching Chen Shiyi's figure getting farther and farther away, Pei Luoshu stood there and watched for a long time.
Fu Feng felt very sorry.
"Sir, why didn't you keep the girl last night? I have prepared everything for you."
Pei Luoshu's eyes were dark as he gave the order softly.
"Fufeng, help me find out who saved her life during the assassination in Kyoto."
"good."
"Tell me, why would she marry her savior? If so many people have saved her, then doesn't that mean she doesn't deserve it?"
"Ah? I don't know what the girl is thinking, but sir, the girl is already married, what should I do?"
"She already has someone she wants to marry, but she hasn't married yet, has she?"
Fu Feng smiled.
"Sir, that's right. If you want to win a good girl, you must use all possible means to get her."
Pei Luoshu stared into the distance.
"I want to get a job in Kyoto as soon as possible."
After stopping and walking on the road for six days, he finally returned to Yanzhou.
As soon as I walked to the door of Qinyun Building, I saw something that made my blood boil.
A large group of people, both men and women, dragged Li Yunzhou.
Li Yunzhou's hair was loose, her clothes were torn in several places, and dust was flying everywhere. Mu Yan, who was standing next to her, was grabbed forcefully by a woman and was crying loudly.
Chen Shiyi stood on the rafter of the carriage, drew his bow expressionlessly, and shot at the arm of the man who was holding Li Yunzhou tightly.
The moment the arrow pierced the man's arm, a scream followed.
In an instant, the noisy scene came to an abrupt end.
The sudden bloodshot stupefied their minds.
Chen Shiyi slowly pushed through the crowd, holding a silver bow, walked to Li Yunzhou's side, and protected her behind him.
Her eyes scanned the people around her sharply.
"Who is causing trouble in Qinyun Building?"
