Hearing the teasing in her brother's mouth, Yu Jiao felt relieved. She smiled slightly: "Brother, you have no objection? I thought you didn't agree with this marriage."
Liu Ziqi was in a complicated mood. "I didn't agree at first. I always felt that Yu Qizhe was not a good match." He changed the subject and said, "But Yu Qizhe was right. Even if I am your elder brother, I should not ignore your will and do something that puts you in an awkward position in the name of doing good for you."
He had just heard Liu Yu in the front hall say that Yu Qizhe had come to his house and had directly threatened him to agree to the marriage by using the fact that he raised private soldiers in Lingnan and Yu Jiao's background. Although Liu Ziqi did not like Yu Qizhe's scheming and cunning behavior, he could not deny that Yu Qizhe was indeed not to be underestimated.
In a short period of time, Yu Jiao's background was found out, and his whereabouts in Lingnan were also discovered. With such means, if he is sincere to Yu Jiao and is really willing to protect her with his life in the future, then for Yu Jiao, it can really be considered a good destination.
Just as Yu Qizhe said, if people knew what he did in Lingnan, both the Liu and Gu families would be implicated. Since Yu Qizhe could find out, other people might be able to find out. He had to try his best to find a way out for Yu Jiao and the Liu family.
"Brother, have you met him?" Yu Jiao was a little surprised. She thought her brother had returned home first, but she didn't expect that her brother had already met Yu Qizhe.
Yu Jiao asked, "What did you talk about?"
Seeing her nervous face, Liu Ziqi smiled and said, "I didn't say anything. He dared to ask the emperor to order the marriage before he could get it arranged. He forced our family to accept the marriage. He must pay a price."
"What's the price?" Yu Jiao became even more nervous after hearing this.
"I had a fight with him." Liu Ziqi took a sip of tea and commented slowly, "I originally thought he was just a weak and calculating scholar, but I didn't expect his skills were just okay."
Yu Jiao had never seen Liu Ziqi use force, and she didn't know that Yu Qizhe also knew martial arts.
"Brother, are you not hurt?" Yu Jiao asked tentatively.
Liu Ziqi chuckled: "I think you want to ask if he is injured. I am fine, but Yu Qizhe should not be doing well."
When he was at the post station, he had a fatal attack on Yu Qizhe. Although the man's moves were exquisite, his internal strength was not good and he lacked experience in fighting against the enemy. He was hit by a palm in the chest and a punch in the right abdomen. Although he pretended to be calm, he knew exactly what he had done. The palm in the chest alone was enough to make Yu Qizhe vomit blood, and the punch in the right abdomen broke at least two of his ribs.
Yu Jiao nodded and drank her tea calmly: "I'm relieved that my brother is fine."
Seeing her calm expression, Liu Ziqi raised his eyebrows and said, "Aren't you worried about him?"
Yu Jiao chuckled: "Don't worry." She was not so stupid as to lose her composure. Since her brother had agreed to let her marry Yu Qizhe, how could he possibly harm Yu Qizhe's life? At most, he would just let Yu Qizhe get hurt. If she panicked and worried about Yu Qizhe's injuries at this moment, it would seem inappropriate.
"Don't worry." Liu Ziqi was relieved and said earnestly, "I know you like him, but you can't tie your heart to him. People are always changing. We can't control a person's true heart. We can only leave more room for ourselves, especially girls. You must always make yourself invincible. Only in this way, no matter who leaves you in the future, you can still live well."
Yu Jiao's nose felt slightly sour. She was lucky. In her previous life, she was only protected by her grandfather and senior brother, but in this life, she also met a very good family. Only someone who truly put himself in her shoes could say such words.
What the elder brother said was equivalent to a disguised way of telling women to be independent, which Yu Jiao found very valuable.
