Chapter 52 A group of troublemakers, a group of seasoned veterans
The faces of the few troublemakers kept changing, but in the end they gritted their teeth and made way.
As soon as one soldier backed down, the rest followed suit.
They quickly cleared the road.
By this time, the troublesome soldier who had been kicked had recovered from the pain in his groin.
As for the blood on his forehead, he could tolerate it completely.
He stubbornly asked, "What do you want?"
"Do you submit now?"
Wei Shuyu's voice was icy cold, like that of a heartless machine.
"Clothes!"
"but……"
"I admire your power, not you as a person!"
That's why he's called a troublemaker.
Even now, they're still being stubborn.
"unimportant."
Wei Shuyu shook his head: "I'll only ask you one question: will you obey my orders from now on?"
After a fierce internal struggle, the troublesome soldier finally lowered his proud head and managed to utter a single word: "Listen!"
"You seem very unwilling to accept this?"
Wei Shuyu patted the other man's cheek with the blade of his sword.
The troublesome soldier's eyes were practically spitting fire, and he gritted his teeth, but he dared not utter a sound because he was afraid of Wei Shuyu's power.
"Shut up if you're not happy about it. If you dare to utter another word of disrespect, I'll rip out your tongue!"
Wei Shuyu's lips curled into a smile: "Now can you answer me, where are the other eighty-odd soldiers?"
"them……"
Before the soldier could reply, Wei Shuyu immediately interrupted him again...
"Forget it, I don't want to hear it anymore."
"You have the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to bring everyone to this location. If you fail to complete the task, you will be court-martialed!"
After Wei Shuyu finished speaking, he turned around directly.
He didn't even check whether the others agreed.
"Hey, you're so scary being naked."
"Exactly, we were both terrified just now..."
Choi Shin-ki and Fang Yi-ai immediately followed, speaking timidly.
Turning his head, Wei Shuyu revealed a meaningful smile: "You will experience it soon enough..."
"Huh? What do you mean?" Choi Shin-ki blinked.
"Big brother, please don't..."
Choi Shin-ki didn't understand, but Fang Yi-ai did, and immediately begged for mercy.
"What do you mean...?"
Choi Shin-ki licked his gums with his tongue.
His front teeth haven't grown in yet, but lately he keeps licking that spot.
The troublemakers stood there dumbfounded as they watched the three men leave on their own.
The group exchanged glances.
"what to do?"
"What else can we do? Just carry it out!"
"You give up?"
"Do you want to get beaten up?"
"He's just a little kid."
"You want to get hit by a little brat?"
"He's even fiercer than a general."
"He is our leader."
"Hurry up and find someone, there's no time..."
After whispering among themselves for a while, the group dispersed.
Under Wei Shuyu's strong pressure, they temporarily chose to submit.
Meanwhile, at the Duke of Lu's residence.
Cheng Huaimo was seriously injured yesterday and fell into a coma after being carried back to his residence. He has only recently regained consciousness.
Cheng Yaojin stayed by his side the whole time...
"Tell me, who told you to go and cause trouble for Wei Shuyu?"
Cheng Yaojin slammed his hand on the table, his face full of murderous intent.
"Master, Huaimo has just woken up. Can't you ask him again in a few days?"
Cui hit Cheng Yaojin with a silk handkerchief, her expression full of reproach.
"You know nothing about men's affairs."
Cheng Yaojin snorted coldly: "This brat doesn't use his brain when he does things. If he doesn't learn to be smarter now, my Cheng family will suffer in the future!"
"What's wrong with women?" Cui said, hands on her hips. "It's Huaimo who's injured right now. You're not only not standing up for him, but why are you even scolding him?"
With the Cui family of Qinghe as her maternal family, she had the confidence to say a few words.
"I won't hold it against you." Cheng Yaojin turned his head away, his voice softening. "I'll just ask Huaimo a few questions, then I'll leave."
"You are only allowed to ask three questions. Huaimo needs to rest." Cui gave him a way out, after all, in ancient times, the husband was the most important person.
Then, they carefully helped Cheng Huaimo up...
Cheng Yaojin did not respond.
When we get down to business, we'll talk about not just three, but three hundred.
"Hurry up and tell me!"
Seeing that Cheng Huaimo remained silent, Cheng Yaojin angrily rebuked him again.
"Cough cough... Huailiang asked me to go help," Cheng Huaimo replied, coughing.
Bang!
Cheng Yaojin slammed his hand on the table again: "Go to hell..."
Upon seeing Cui's murderous gaze, Cheng Yaojin immediately swallowed back the words of his curse.
"You still dare to lie?"
"Huailiang just mentioned it to you; he was beaten up by Wei Shuyu before."
"Who gave you permission to steal the ice cube recipe?"
Cheng Huaimo's expression changed drastically.
Overcome with excitement, he coughed violently again, coughing up a lot of blood.
“Master…” Madam Cui hurriedly wiped her face with a silk handkerchief.
Cheng Yaojin was also a little worried, after all, he was his own son.
"You silly boy."
"Is the struggle for the throne something a mere Imperial Guard like you can interfere with?"
"Tell me, is it the Crown Prince or the Prince of Wei?"
Cheng Yaojin's tone softened...
Cheng Huaimo's lips twitched, and he finally managed to utter three words: "It's the Crown Prince."
"you……"
Cheng Yaojin raised his hand to slap his son, but seeing how weak he was, he put it back down: "I've been shrewd my whole life, how could I have given birth to such a fool like you!"
"Your Majesty is in the prime of life, and I am also alive and well. What nonsense are you talking about seeking refuge with?"
Cheng Yaojin was absolutely furious.
"I don't want to be a Thousand Bull Guard; I want to fight on the battlefield. Your Highness can help me," Cheng Huaimo replied stubbornly.
"..."
This left Cheng Yaojin speechless.
The battlefield is ruthless.
In order to protect Cheng Huaimo, he specifically sought out an easy job.
Who would have thought that the son had his own ideas?
"Never mind."
Cheng Yaojin sighed, "Don't get involved in the struggle for the throne in the future. As for your matter, I will personally explain it to His Majesty."
"You must remember, no matter how many tricks the Crown Prince and the Prince of Wei pull, they will not escape His Majesty's discerning eyes."
As Cheng Yaojin left Cheng Huaimo's residence, a hint of ferocity flashed in his eyes.
Does the Crown Prince really think Cheng Yaojin is made of clay, that he would dare to lay a hand on Huai Mo?
"Prepare the horses, I'm going to the East Palace!"
Military camp.
Before the time it takes for an incense stick to burn has even elapsed, hundreds of soldiers have already gathered scattered throughout the area.
With a few troublemakers maintaining order, things didn't seem chaotic.
Wei Shuyu stepped forward and glanced at it, his brows furrowing involuntarily.
Veteran doesn't necessarily mean old age.
On the contrary, most of these people are in their prime, but they have served in the military for a long time, so they are called veterans.
The group of people in front of them, carrying long spears and with their shoulders slumped, looked listless.
Wei Shuyu discerned the characteristics of this group of people at a single glance...
A seasoned veteran.
Taking advantage of his long military service, he was perfunctory in everything he did.
Come to think of it, every veteran is a treasure in the military camp. They have rich battlefield experience and can lead new recruits.
How could Qin Qiong possibly entrust such a precious child to a little brat to cause trouble?
A bunch of troublemakers, a bunch of seasoned veterans.
They really don't intend to let me win.
but……
I'll teach those who dare to defy me!
Wei Shuyu took a step forward, his sharp, piercing gaze sweeping over the crowd.
"Everyone, arrange yourselves in ten rows, from shortest to tallest, into ten columns!"
