Chapter 163 I said, I'm going to steal
Xu Minghui obviously knew what had happened before, but he didn't care about it at this moment.
He spoke quickly, "You stay home and watch. I'll go and ask Chen Nianhe to let me go home with the imperial physician. You..."
"It's no use begging."
Xu Yu's eyes flashed with anger, and he said sternly, "I broke his son's leg. You'll only be humiliated if you go."
"You also know that this disaster is your fault?"
Xu Minghui gritted his teeth in anger: "Back then, you did some awful things that were despised by everyone, and now you're desperate?"
Xu Yu also knew what Xu Minghui said, but at this point he could no longer care about it.
Whether it was for the Xu family or out of the younger generations' selfishness, none of them wanted anything to happen to the old man.
"That's settled. I'm leaving for the Northwest Camp now. You wait for my news at home."
Xu Minghui was about to leave in a hurry when suddenly a large hand fell on his shoulder that he couldn't get rid of.
Xu Yu, expressionless, pushed him back and said coldly, "Stay home. I'll go."
"you go?"
"Xu Yu, are you crazy?!"
Xu Minghui took two steps forward and grabbed him, squeezing out a nearly broken voice through gritted teeth: "You beat Chen An so hard that he was lying on the street like a dead dog. Chen Nianhe almost came to your house with a machete to kill you!"
"Aren't you going to die if you go there now?!"
Back then, the Xu family was wealthy and powerful, and had a good relationship with the Chen family.
But in the end, everything was ruined by Xu Yu.
He almost killed Chen Nianhe's son.
Although making an enemy caused a lot of gossip, Xu Yu was the precious prince of the Xu family at that time, and Chen Nianhe could do nothing even if he gritted his teeth.
It's different now.
Xu Yu was exiled here as a criminal, and Chen Nianhe was the General Zhenxi who was appointed by the court to take up the post here.
If Xu Yu goes there, he will die!
Xu Minghui did not dare to alarm others and just held on to Xu Yu.
Xu Yu glanced down at his deformed sleeves and raised his eyebrows subtly: "Haven't you been hoping for my death?"
After so many years of fighting openly and secretly, why are you still reluctant to let him die?
Xu Minghui said angrily, sweat breaking out on his forehead: "I hope you die a miserable death, but I don't want you to die at this time!"
"Go back and stay here! I know my limits in this matter!"
“Tsk.”
Xu Yu was a little annoyed. He turned his hand and held Xu Minghui's arm. With a slight twist, he pushed him forward and raised his hand to give him a loud slap on the forehead.
It was just like how he usually beat Xu Mingyang and others, except that the strength was much greater.
Xu Minghui almost thought he wanted to knock him unconscious!
"Who are you telling to get lost, little brat?"
Xu Yu let go of Xu Minghui, who was covering his forehead, and said calmly, "You have no right to interrupt. Shut up and wait for the news."
"Also, you are not allowed to follow..."
"Zhizhi?"
Xu Yu looked over Xu Minghui's shoulder and looked in surprise at the person who slowly stood up behind the haystack. He even forgot what he wanted to say.
Sang Zhixia looked at them with a complicated expression, then looked at Xu Yu hesitantly, and after a moment's silence, she said, "Minghui, there's some food left for you on the stove. Eat it first to fill your stomach."
"Xu Yu, come with me."
A rare crack appeared on Xu Yu's usually calm face. He pointed at Xu Minghui in the air as if giving a warning and ran after him.
With a muffled creaking sound, Xu Yu closed the door behind him.
He looked at Sang Zhixia's calm face and racked his brains for words, but before he could open his mouth, he heard Sang Zhixia say, "If we invite the imperial physician, there will be a better chance of curing Grandfather's illness, right?"
Xu Yu couldn't hide it from her, and after a moment of silence he said, "Yes."
"The medicinal materials here are not good, and the doctor's medical skills are not good either. Grandfather's illness can't be delayed any longer. If..."
"I'll go with you."
The words that were on the tip of Xu Yu's tongue got stuck in his throat, and he looked stunned.
Sang Zhixia took out all the unused private money she had prepared for Xu Yu and stuffed it into her arms. Turning her back to Xu Yu, she said, "I don't know why you beat his son into a cripple, but now he has hope of curing his grandfather's illness. It would be fine if I didn't know, but now that I know, I have to go anyway."
Xu Yu had thought of going to the Northwest Camp to find the imperial physician many days ago.
But a few months ago, the general who was originally guarding the northwest was ordered to return to the capital, and there were only a few military doctors left in the entire camp. Those people's medical skills were not better than the doctors who could be hired now, so he gave up the idea.
Now that the imperial physician has arrived, then...
Xu Yu opened his mouth repeatedly, forcing himself to swallow a bloody sob, and said hoarsely: "Zhizhi, you don't know the grudge between me and Chen Nianhe. This trip is not to reminisce about the past, but..."
"But to risk humiliation, right?"
Sang Zhixia turned to look at him expressionlessly and said coldly, "So I can't let you go alone."
"What if you were really beaten to death?"
"I can't, I..."
"How do you know you can't?"
Sang Zhixia sat down on the bed with the packed private money in her arms, looked at Xu Yu and said, "This is an old grudge. I'm worried about you going alone."
"I can't be of much help if I go along, but I've learned some Qinggong skills quite well recently. At least I can help you, who has been crippled by revenge, run farther."
"Are you really prepared to be beaten to death? To trade your life for your grandfather's? Or, are you prepared to..."
"I wasn't that prepared."
Xu Yu interrupted Sang Zhixia directly, walked over quickly, knelt on one knee in front of Sang Zhixia, and held her hand.
He looked up at Sang Zhixia's pale and tense face and whispered, "The grudge between Chen Nianhe and me won't be resolved anytime soon. Even if I kneel down and kowtow to him, it will be useless. If you go with me, it will only add to your humiliation."
"I have no intention of having a proper talk with Chen Nianhe, nor will I give him the opportunity to retaliate against me."
Xu Yu reached out and tucked the loose strands of hair that had fallen from Sang Zhixia's ears behind her, saying softly, "Chen Nianhe's roots aren't here. He's just arrived at the Northwest Camp, and he's in a rush to settle down. It's so chaotic, no one has time to care for an accompanying imperial physician."
"Just wait for me at home. I'll go and steal the imperial physician out."
Sang Zhixia prepared countless arguments, but all of them were stuck in front of this spiritual word "stealing".
She stared at Xu Yu in disbelief: "What did you just say?"
“What are you going to do???”
"I said, I'm going to steal."
How difficult could it be to steal a weak imperial physician from a mere Northwestern camp?
Sang Zhixia was so shocked by his boldness that he was speechless. In a trance, he even thought that the person in front of him might have been a bandit.
Xu Yu straightened up slightly and kissed her on the chin: "Don't worry, I can steal it."
Sang Zhixia's mind was in a tangle of confusion, and she didn't know what to say for a moment. After a moment of shock, she bit her lip and said, "Even if you managed to evade the enemy and really stole the imperial physician out, and then released him back, wouldn't Chen Nianhe still know everything?"
They couldn't possibly wait for the imperial physician to cure the old man's illness and then turn around and kill the stolen imperial physician, right?
"It would be good if he knew."
Xu Yu stroked Sang Zhixia's earlobe with his fingertips and whispered softly, "I was originally worried about not being able to find available manpower in the Northwest Camp. Since he came here on his own, why not use him?"
"Zhizhi, don't worry, I have something that can hold him down."
"It doesn't matter whether Chen Nianhe wants to make amends with me, but he's definitely interested in what I have."
"He doesn't dare kill me."
After curing the old man's illness, he waited at home for Chen Nianhe to come.
