"Dad, look how amazing Erfu is! He saved us and will protect us. That villain definitely can't beat him." Chen Siqing wasn't in a hurry to leave and stood there with Old Master Chen, watching.
"This place is not safe. Let's get out of here quickly and get the Imperial Guards to help us." After regaining his footing, Master Chen pulled his daughter away.
"Don't be afraid, look, Brother Erfu is about to win." The little girl didn't deliberately lower her voice, and both of the people who were fighting heard what she said.
The second brother was furious, wishing he could go over and stuff a cloth into her mouth, but the kid in front of him was too difficult to deal with, and he couldn't get away at the moment.
Erfu, however, became more and more courageous in the fight. Especially when he heard Chen Siqing praising him, his spirits suddenly lifted, and he felt full of energy that he could not exhaust. He then launched a fierce attack on the strange old man, who was already suffering a lot of setbacks due to his blindness in one eye. In addition, Erfu's kung fu was no worse than his.
Soon, the second strange man could no longer hold on and was finally kicked away by Zhou Erfu. The second strange man crashed into the wall and fell to the ground. Erfu did not stop there. He quickly rushed over and stomped on the man's chest, causing him to vomit blood.
When the Imperial Guards arrived, they saw a tall young man stomping someone unconscious. Zhou Erfu felt it wasn't enough and punched him a few more times.
"You dared to bully Miss Chen! I'll beat you to death! If I don't send you to meet the King of Hell today, I'm not a Zhou!" Erfu shouted as he hit her.
It wasn't until the Imperial Guards arrived that they pulled him away. The leader was the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards. He bent down to check the second brother's pulse and found that he was still breathing and hadn't died.
"If he's not dead, just finish him off. Is there any need for interrogation? It's easier to just kill this kind of villain and avoid any unnecessary complications." Erfu rubbed his hands together, clearly intending to personally deliver the final blow.
"Brother Erfu, come here quickly, don't stand there, be careful that the villains don't jump up and harm people again." Chen Siqing's soft voice reached Erfu's ears.
Zhou Erfu suddenly realized with a start that he had almost forgotten that Miss Chen was still behind him. He couldn't just kill her himself. What would happen if she saw such a bloody scene?
"I've left the second brother to you. There's nothing more for me to do," Zhou Erfu said, then turned and walked to Chen Siqing and Master Chen, looking slightly flustered. "Master Chen, Miss Chen, were you frightened? Why don't we leave this courtyard first?"
Several servants died in the courtyard, and there was blood everywhere, making it uninhabitable for the time being.
"Waaah, green bamboo and green willow, Ah Cai and Ah Tang..." Chen Siqing belatedly realized and cried bitterly. These four people were all servants who served in her courtyard, and they had all been killed by the eccentric second brother.
"Father, what should we do? Cuizhu and the others died so tragically. They all died trying to save me. Please save them and call a doctor to revive them."
“Silly girl, the dead cannot be brought back to life, and there’s nothing your father can do,” Master Chen said helplessly. “Don’t cry yet. Let’s go to the east courtyard and have someone come and clean up here. Cuizhu and the others won’t have died in vain. Your father will have them given a proper burial and will also make sure to compensate their families.”
Zhou Erfu also advised, "Miss Chen, we've caught the second brother, he's doomed. We've avenged Cuizhu and the other three."
"Waaah, it's all that villain's fault! Why did he have to come to the Chen residence to harm people? He deserves to die! I want to avenge Cuizhu and the others! I want to avenge them!"
Erfu didn't understand why she suddenly kept repeating the idea of revenge. Hadn't she already taken her revenge?
Caught off guard, Chen Siqing suddenly rushed past Erfu like a cannonball. Erfu was startled and turned around to see that Miss Chen had already drawn the waist knife of one of the Imperial Guards and then plunged the knife straight into the chest of the strange second brother.
The man lying on the ground suddenly arched his body, spitting out a mouthful of blood. He stared at Chen Siqing with his one eye that wasn't blind, but Chen Siqing didn't look at him. She pulled out her knife and struck him again until he died.
Master Chen and Erfu were both stunned, and the imperial guards were also dumbfounded. They never expected that Miss Chen, who looked as harmless as a soft bun, would dare to kill someone with a knife, and if one stab wasn't enough, she would stab again.
Once she was sure the second culprit was dead, Miss Chen threw down the knife and raised her sleeve to wipe the blood splattered on her face. But the more she wiped, the dirtier it got, because her sleeve was also covered in blood.
"Waaaaah, I'm covered in blood, it's so scary, I can't wipe it all off," she cried for a while, then walked over to Cuizhu and the others and squatted down, saying in a tearful voice, "Cuizhu, Cuiliu, Acai, Atang, I've avenged you, you can rest in peace now."
"May you be reborn into a wealthy family in your next life, and never have to be a servant again. I will have my father arrange for you to be given a proper burial. He said he will compensate your families, so you don't need to worry about them."
Mr. Chen, who had been dumbfounded just moments before, couldn't help but tear up after hearing her words. This child was just like that—soft-hearted yet bold. She seemed rough and carefree, but in reality, she was more affectionate and righteous than anyone else. She was a truly genuine child.
"My cousin Siqing actually dared to kill someone!" Erfu muttered to himself.
Although she spoke very softly, Master Chen still heard her. He glanced at Erfu indifferently and said coldly, "What? You don't dare to marry her anymore? You despise her because she killed someone?"
Erfu immediately shook his head in denial, "That's not true. She killed evil people, people who deserved to die. It was a good and wonderful killing. She is that kind of person." Erfu gave a thumbs up.
“As long as she didn’t kill innocent people, who dares to say anything about her? We’ve also stained our hands with blood. We only killed those who deserved to die. In that sense, Cousin Siqing and I are a perfect match. As long as she doesn’t mind me, I can marry her right away. Mr. Chen, does that mean you agree to me becoming your son-in-law?” Erfu said, then realized what was going on.
Master Chen glanced at him again, then stepped forward to help Chen Siqing up, but continued speaking to Erfu, "Once this period is over, have your parents choose a date to come to the Chen residence to propose marriage."
