The man said tremblingly, "Sir, if I tell you, can you guarantee you won't kill me?"
Liu Yang stomped on his back: "You dare to bargain with me? You'll die anyway if you don't talk!"
As Liu Yang was about to bring down the knife, the man almost roared, "Ming Youlan's mother is a prostitute! Sir, you'll regret letting her become your brother's wife!"
These words shocked the entire audience!
Not to mention the displaced people who loved watching the drama unfold, even Liu Yang was stunned; he had never imagined such an ending.
But he didn't know what to do at the moment, and his first reaction was to turn around and ask Ming Youlan with his eyes.
At this moment, Ming Youlan and Xiao Hui blushed with embarrassment. Being said these words in public made them feel ashamed and unable to lift their heads.
The sisters' behavior clearly confirmed what that person had said. Liu Yang shouted angrily, "If that's the case, how could you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Tu shouted, "Bullying the weak and spreading rumors, kill them!"
Only then did Liu Yang realize what Lü Tu was planning, and he quickly did as he was told: "Kill him!"
With a roar, he slashed the throats of the thugs with his long knife, splattering blood all over the people around him, and everyone felt a sense of danger.
Seeing Liu Yang's bloodshot eyes, the refugees present trembled and retreated, fearing that Liu Yang's bloodlust would implicate them as well.
"My lord, spare our lives! This has nothing to do with us!"
"I know, shut up!" Liu Yang had completely lost his rationality at this point. After all, his younger brother had just found a wife who was the descendant of a prostitute. Even if this was Wuchuan in the Northern Territory, it would be a disgrace to his family if word got out.
After all, prostitution and military prostitution are different; one is voluntary while the other is forced into it, and there is a fundamental difference between the two.
At this point, Lü Tu knew he could no longer let Liu Yang handle things; otherwise, who knew what might happen and turn a good thing into a tragedy.
He spurred his horse to Liu Hu's side, dismounted, and looked at Ming Youlan, saying, "Miss Ming, let me ask you, do you like my little brother?"
Ming Youlan was so ashamed that she didn't dare to speak. She could only stare blankly at her feet with tears in her eyes.
Seeing her reaction, Lü Tu expressed his understanding, then looked at Liu Hu and asked, "Do you like Miss Ming?"
Liu Hu stammered for a moment, appearing very hesitant. Lu Tu frowned and said, "Just tell me whether you like it or not. Don't worry about other people's feelings. After all, it's your life together from now on, and no one can interfere!"
Hearing Lu Tu's words, Liu Hu firmly took Ming Youlan's hand and said resolutely, "I love her, and I want to marry her!"
Hearing this, Liu Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, Lü Tu had already stepped forward, without mentioning Youlan's mother at all, clearly wanting to minimize the impact of this matter. He gratefully leaned closer and whispered, "Thank you, brother."
Lu Tu looked at Liu Hu and Ming Youlan, nodded and said, "In that case, you should take Miss Ming and the other girl back to prepare. Let's consummate our marriage tonight."
Ming Youlan grabbed Xiao Hui and knelt down in front of Lu Tu with a thud. She stubbornly wiped away her tears with her sleeve and said gratefully, "Thank you, sir, but I think it is still necessary to make things clear."
Lu Tu raised an eyebrow. How come this girl is still so stubborn? Can't she see his good intentions? Does she have to say such things that are detrimental to her in front of so many people?
Ming Youlan and Xiao Hui lay prostrate on the ground, as if they wouldn't get up until Lü Tu agreed.
Liu Yang's temper flared up immediately. No one in Kuishan Village dared to defy Lü Tu like this. Just as he was about to get angry and urge him on, Xiao Zhong sighed softly from the side: "Let her speak. I can see that although Miss Ming is a girl, she is an upright and honest person."
Lu Tu nodded and said, "You stand up and talk first."
Ming Youlan then stood up and bowed to Lü Tu Yingying: "To be honest, my mother did sell her body. My father and second uncle died on the battlefield. My mother and my sister had no choice but to submit to the village bully, who was the group that was just killed.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yang immediately flew into a rage, grabbed his knife, and walked toward the group of corpses, yelling, "You sons of bitches, I'll make sure you all die a horrible death!" He then began wildly hacking at the corpses of the village bullies with his knife, appearing completely insane.
Everyone quickly moved aside, knowing that he was trying to avenge his brother. After all, no one would feel good in this situation, especially since they were all ordinary people. Such incidents were all too common.
Hearing this, Liu Hu felt extremely distressed and held Ming Youlan's hand tightly: "I will take good care of you and your sister."
Thank you.
Lu Tu waved his hand and said, "You're also a person with a hard life. From today onwards, you don't need to be so strong-willed."
"Why, sir?" Xiao Hui asked, blinking her big eyes.
Lu Tu pointed at Liu Hu: "Because your strongmen have arrived."
Ming Youlan stopped crying and smiled. She then tugged at Liu Hu's arm and whispered, "Go tell your brother to stop killing. My mother's revenge has already been taken."
Liu Hu quickly ran to Liu Yang's side, pulled him back, then asked Lu Tu for leave and took Ming Youlan and Xiao Hui home to prepare for their wedding night.
After all, Liu Hu and his brother were among the first capable men to follow Lü Tu and helped him a lot. Their wedding should be arranged as a reward for him.
After dealing with the matter here, none of the refugees dared to cause any more trouble. After all, Liu Yang's angry appearance was still fresh in their minds. Killing someone is just a matter of beheading them, but this guy actually whipped the corpse when he was angry.
In this day and age, where our bodies and hair are given to us by our parents, who can bear this?
At this moment, Xiang Ze walked over with Feng Xiao and the other person, and bowed deeply to Lü Tu: "My lord, thank you for letting me find a sworn brother."
Seeing that the three of them had red eyes, Lu Tu patted their shoulders and asked a question that shocked them all: "When are the three of you setting off?"
Xiang Ze and the other two were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other in disbelief and whispered, "Sir, we didn't say we wanted to leave here."
Lu Tu was puzzled: "Aren't you all leaders of the Red Turban Rebellion? Now that you've met, can you really let go of your inner convictions? Don't you want to do something great?"
Xiang Ze and the other two said solemnly, "To be honest, sir, the three of us had just had this idea, but after further discussion, we all agreed that none of the peasant uprisings in the world today will amount to anything. Only you, sir, have the grand vision to lead us to achieve something great!"
