Chapter 175 My love for you remains unchanged
On the long street.
A group of people wearing patrol uniforms surrounded a man wearing the same clothes as them.
The difference was that this group of people were more or less injured, and everyone was familiar with them. They knew that they were all second or third generation people in Shengjing City. The leader among them was Fang Liu, the youngest son of the Minister of War, a notorious ruffian.
The people surrounded looked unfamiliar, tall and muscular. Even though they were wearing the same clothes, they looked like a mighty general.
He also has a majestic appearance, with thick eyebrows and tiger eyes. Every time he turns his head, he exudes dominance. His dark skin and traces of weathering all show that he is not the same kind of person as these young masters.
In fact, in comparison with him, these young men looked more like punks.
Fang Liu has been the boss of the patrol army for two or three years, and no one has ever dared to disobey him. But ever since this peasant came, he has provoked him time and time again, and today he even made him lose face in the street, which made him unable to tolerate it any more.
"Damn it! Come on! Whoever kills him today will be my deputy!"
The deputy chief is the third in command of the city defense army, but not all members of the city defense army are second or third generation, there are also people from poor families and some small shrimps.
They usually praise Fang Liu in order to climb up, and this will give them an opportunity. Even if they can't beat this peasant, they will try their best. Maybe they can succeed.
A group of people swarmed over.
Unfortunately, not to mention martial arts, they were far inferior to their opponents in terms of body size. Before they could get close to their opponents, they were picked up like chicks and easily thrown away.
One by one, they lay on the ground and barked in pain like dogs.
Looking at this group of losers and the man who was like an invincible bear, Fang Liu was so angry that his head was smoking and he lost his mind. He pulled out the dagger he had hidden in his sleeve pocket, and while several people had entangled each other's hands, he quickly rushed forward and stabbed.
He saw a cold light, but the man's hands were held tightly by five or six other people, and he did not dare to kill them. When he was about to take the knife, Fang Liu suddenly knelt down and threw himself to the ground. The dagger in his hand was facing upwards, and he stabbed his own shoulder instead.
But despite the blood dripping, he didn't move at all.
No one knew what happened, but seeing the blood gushing out of Fang Liu's shoulder, the lackeys were afraid of being punished if something happened, so they didn't care about the man anymore, and hurriedly lifted Fang Liu up and ran to the clinic.
Most of the onlookers followed Fang Liu to watch the fun, but the man stayed where he was, squatted down, picked up a stone from the ground, smelled it, and opened his eyes wide in surprise.
He immediately looked up and saw a carriage in front of him. He held the stone in his hand and walked forward quickly, unable to suppress his excitement.
But when he was about to speak, he hesitated and took a few deep breaths before saying, "Thank you for your help."
"Didn't you say that there's no need to thank each other between you and me?" Su Rui lifted the car curtain and revealed herself.
Seeing Su Rui again, the man's eyes were filled with emotions, and he took a step forward unconsciously.
Zhuiyue immediately stepped forward to stop him.
When this kid walked over, he realized that he had bad intentions.
But there were a lot of people here, and Yue Heyun was also sitting in the car, so he didn't know what to say.
But this kid must not be allowed to get close to the concubine.
The man was stopped by Zhuiyue, but he didn't get angry. He looked straight at Su Rui, and said with a mixture of joy and hesitation, "I thought you didn't want to see me anymore."
When he smelled the lingering fragrance on the stone, he knew it was Su Rui who helped him.
But he didn't dare to call Su Rui directly. The words she said before returning to Beijing were still ringing in his ears. He was afraid that she would leave again.
"This is not the place to talk. Let's find a place to sit down and talk."
Su Rui lowered the carriage curtain and whispered to the stunned Yue Heyun, "I met an old friend. I won't go to the shop with you today."
Just by looking at the way the man looked at Su Rui just now, Yue Heyun realized that something was wrong. She was extremely curious, but she also knew that it was not appropriate to ask too much about private matters, so she could only suppress her curiosity and got out of the car at the shop.
Su Rui led his men all the way to Tianxia Building and sat down in a quiet private room.
Normally, Zhuiyue would wait outside, but today, he stood beside her without moving an inch, with Xiaoru on her left and right, like two door gods.
Knowing that he was guarding the backyard for Yun Ji, Su Rui did not drive him out. After all, it was not something shameful.
"Brother Wei, why are you in Shengjing?" Su Rui asked while pouring tea.
"I came here for you."
At this word, Su Rui's hands trembled as she poured the tea.
He is just like always, saying whatever he wants to say.
Seeing Zhuiyue's hand on the sword at his waist, Su Rui immediately asked in detail, "I'm asking you, how did you get it? The troops at the border haven't stopped yet, and you're not old enough to retire yet."
It is not easy for people in the border areas to leave. They either have to stop fighting and be released, or retire and return home when they reach the age of retirement.
Wei Chu doesn't meet the requirements, and it's not easy to come to Shengjing.
"I'm so excited." Wei Chu scratched his head with a silly smile and recounted the whole story of his visit.
It turned out that after Su Rui left, he was transferred to the southwest and happened to be in the team under the command of the second prince.
The second prince received the imperial edict to return to the capital. Except for the second prince's confidants, the others could choose to be transferred to other military camps, return home early, or return to the capital with him.
Wei Chu chose to follow him back to the capital.
But he was not one of the Second Prince's close confidants, so he was casually sent away to patrol the city after returning to the capital.
It was not a bad job, but Wei Chu was upright and righteous. He could not stand the bad things happening in the patrol army. After he tried to stop them a few times, he annoyed Fang Liu.
Today, he had just finished the handover and was about to go back when he saw Fang Liuqiang trying to snatch a girl. The girl was only twelve years old, still a child, so he tried to stop him, and a fight broke out on the long street.
"Wouldn't it be better if you returned home?"
Wei Chu was not a commoner. His family lived in Feng'an. His father was a fifth-rank garrison commander in the local area. Some of his family members were merchants, so they were not short of money. If he had not been so young and arrogant and insisted on joining the army, he would not have been sent to the border.
Now he has the opportunity to return home. With his military rank and the connections of his family, he can get a good job in Feng'an.
"Because you are in Shengjing, I must come!"
Zhuiyue nearly drew his sword, but suppressed his murderous intent and warned, "Brother, be careful with your words. The one before you is Prince Yong's concubine."
"I know!" Wei Chu didn't care. He stared at Su Rui with his round tiger eyes and said solemnly, "I know you said those words on purpose when you left the border. I also know you did that to return to the capital. Now you marry Prince Yong for the same reason. I don't mind."
As he spoke, Wei Chu stood up and drew out the Moon Chasing Sword.
"Su Rui, my love for you remains unchanged. No matter whether you marry or not, or who you marry, I can wait. When you are willing to marry me, I will marry you immediately!"
