Chapter 186 Please spare my son's life, Madam San Shao
Chu Yian had no idea that his book had once again changed the emperor's mind.
Although this change is not yet obvious, a single spark can start a prairie fire.
Who knows how the emperor will change one day in the future?
Seeing that Uncle Fu had packed up and left the inn to go to Dashi Village, Chu Yian did not stay for long and called Xiaofu to prepare to return to the Duke's Mansion together.
Just let Uncle Fu handle the things here. Uncle Fu has been doing business for so many years and has experienced a lot. He can fool a group of lazy men who only know how to eat and work.
The carriage was moving slowly on the streets of Shengjing.
Because of the news of the war, many people's faces showed different expressions than before.
Chu Yian observed them for a while without making any expression and found that although the people were uneasy, most of them were smiling.
There was even a hint of enthusiasm in his words that was rare in the past.
Therefore, the people actually did not want to negotiate peace or send the princess as a bride. They worked hard to pay taxes, but in the end all of them were sent to the Huns, who supported their strong army and horses. How could the people be happy?
Although war has risks, if this battle is fought well, the prestige of Dashun will surely spread far and wide. How will the Huns dare to invade in the future?
If possible, they would even like to defeat the Huns so badly that they would never dare to come again.
The people trust the Qin family. The Qin family has guarded the territory of Dashun for so many years. With the Qin family army, Duke Qin and General Qin, they believe that they will definitely win this battle.
Although Chu Yian was happy with their reaction, he seemed to understand the heavy burden on Qin Sheng at this moment.
Behind him are countless people who place great hopes on him, above him is a king who wants to kill him at any time, and there is also a group of opponents standing on the opposite side who want him dead...
In the past, Qin Sheng was still young, and Duke Qin had to bear all of this alone. Even if the three Qin Huaishu brothers could do anything, it was very limited.
Although they can help Duke Qin now, more pressure is also transferred to them.
Qin Sheng learned so much at the most helpless age, which is why he has reached his current point step by step.
If possible, it would be better for him to be like an ordinary man and not be sensible so early. Maybe Qin Sheng would not have to bear such a heavy burden now.
Chu Yian lowered the curtain and the carriage headed towards the Duke's Mansion.
Looking at the car curtain that would occasionally open a corner to let in some light, she didn't know who was luckier between Qin Sheng and him.
She was very happy to be able to help the Qin family, so that they could live more comfortably and heroes wouldn't have to shed blood and tears.
But without Qin Sheng, she wouldn't be able to live such a carefree life now. No one can stop her from doing anything she wants, and no one will say anything.
In this regard, she and Qin Sheng can be said to have achieved mutual success.
It’s just Qin Sheng…
Chu Yian got a headache when he thought of Qin Sheng's group of men. Qin Sheng undoubtedly didn't like them, and he didn't know whether this group of people could let go and give Qin Sheng true freedom.
Although Qin Sheng can go higher and further on his own.
Maybe one day in the future he won't have to be threatened by them, but Chu Yian still hopes that he can be more relaxed.
But how should she do it? She didn't know.
Seeing that Chu Yian was still thinking about something, Xiaofu did not disturb him.
He only whispered a reminder when the carriage stopped: "Miss, we're here."
Chu Yian came to his senses, lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage.
Just as she was about to enter the Duke's Mansion, Xiao Fu suddenly tugged at her sleeve and pointed to the street corner: "Miss, there seemed to be someone over there."
Chu Yian was stunned and looked in the direction of Xiaofu's finger.
Empty, only leaves drifting down from the high wall, nothing else: "Could it be that you saw it wrong?"
Xiao Fu scratched her head, unsure: "Maybe he was just passing by. I only saw a figure passing by, but didn't see what he looked like."
Chu Yian pursed his lips and frowned.
Qin Sheng is about to go to war. Could it be that someone wants to interfere?
After all, it was a turbulent time, so without thinking too much, she waved her hand, and a black shadow instantly floated towards the corner of the street.
Chu Yian just looked at it for a few seconds and then looked away, then walked towards the mansion.
But just as she reached the stairs, a figure rushed out from nowhere, knelt down in front of her, hugged her legs and started crying loudly.
"Madam Third Young Master! Madam Third Young Master! Please, please let my son go. He, he only has one breath left. Madam Third Young Master, please give my son a chance to live! I kowtow to you."
Chu Yian really didn't react in time. She was frightened by the person who suddenly rushed out. She subconsciously kicked the person who was holding her legs to the ground.
She quickly stepped back several steps, and Xiao Fu also quickly came over to block Chu Yian, looking at the man on the ground with a vigilant look: "Who are you?"
The guards at the gate of the Duke's Mansion also reacted. They immediately rushed over and pinned the man to the ground on the left and right, making him unable to move.
Although he was pinned to the ground, the man still cried out, "Please, Madam Third Young Master, please let my son live. We will compensate you for the damage he caused you. We will compensate you tenfold. Please, Madam Third Young Master, please let him live..."
Listening to the heartbreaking screams of the woman kneeling on the ground, Chu Yian's face turned pale, and he almost gritted his teeth and said, "Lift your head."
Upon hearing this, the woman hurriedly looked up, her face was covered with tears, her eyes were bloodshot, and her eyes were full of red bloodshot.
She looked like a trapped beast that had been forced into a corner, giving Chu Yian the feeling that it might jump up and bite her at any time.
Her expression became even uglier. She took a deep breath, suppressed the nameless anger in her heart, and said, "Are you Jiang Zhijie's mother?"
Come to think of it, she had never done anything to hurt others in the three years since she came to this world.
Later, he would find ways to help others from time to time, and he was willing to spend huge amounts of money, regardless of the cost, to do so.
The only person who was hurt was Jiang Zhijie, who he met by chance in the restaurant before.
But this is what makes Chu Yian most angry. Jiang Zhijie's mother is also a woman. Why did she never restrain her son when he grew up to be like that?
Now I have to ask her for help.
Yang Youyi knelt down again, her voice choked with sobs as she said, "Yes, I am, Madam Third Young Master. Zhijie has realized his mistake."
"You, you also gave him such a severe punishment, I only ask you to spare my son's life."
She was crying and her whole body was shaking.
Chu Yian just stood a little further away and looked at her coldly, then ordered the guards, "Help Madam Jiang up."
Two guards lifted the man up, one on each side.
Yang Youyi looked at Chu Yian helplessly, looking disheveled, even her hair was messed up, and she was still begging her: "Madam San Shao, I am willing to do anything you ask me to do, just please let my son go."
Chu Yian's eyes showed annoyance: "Such a big Jiang family, but they only let you come to the door of our Duke's Mansion to play pitiful. If you don't know, you would think that the men of the Jiang family are a bunch of useless trash who can't even leave the house with a broken leg."
"He usually acts high and mighty, bullies women, and does evil things."
"When something happens and you have to bow your head, you push the woman out to calm things down."
Chu Yian took a deep breath and waved his hand, and the two guards immediately let go of Yang Youyi.
She said coldly, "I won't embarrass you. Madam Jiang, you should go back. Your son was rude at the restaurant that day, and I was just giving him a small punishment."
"After that, I never did anything to the Jiang family, and my country's government did nothing to your Jiang family either."
"Instead of begging me, Madam Jiang, why not investigate who the Jiang family has offended again and stop putting all the blame on our family."
