Chapter 201 Father-son relationship is just like this
"What the hell do you know?!"
Xi Jingyuan tore off the mask, quite furious.
Because he had already seen that Jingshu was unwilling to help him, and even did not care about the two trump cards he played, disregarding his life safety.
Jing Shu was calm and composed. "Why should I tell you? Go back and ask your parents."
The prerequisite is that he can get out of this muddy water safely.
He was the one who stirred this up himself, so it must have felt great to be a part of it.
Jingshu's intention to laugh at the joke was too obvious, which irritated Xi Jingyuan so much that his eyes turned red. While Xi Jingyuan was drinking tea, she suddenly attacked him.
As a result, he was beaten down as expected.
Jing Shu single-handedly picked him up and threw him out of the courtyard, warning him, "This isn't the place for you. If I find you again next time, I'll make sure you don't even have the stamina to practice martial arts."
Xi Jingyuan, who had fallen to the ground in a mess, laughed at this moment. He slowly raised his head and smiled meaningfully: "Brother, you don't think I'm wasting my time here with you just to be ridiculed by you, do you?"
Jing Shu suddenly had a bad feeling, "What did you do?!"
"Master Eldest, please escort Master Second back to the capital, otherwise..." The servant boy came towards Rong Zhen from the alley threatening her, with the dagger in his hand firmly pressed against her back, his intentions obvious.
They knew Jingshu would not agree, so they made a special plan to hold Rongzhen hostage and force him to compromise.
"Very good, you're all very good!" Jing Shu sneered as he regained control of Xi Jingyuan. He grabbed his neck and said, "Let's see which is faster, your knife or my hand. Let's see who dies first!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, the servant boy immediately wanted to stab Rong Zhen to let Jing Shu know that they were not just talking.
But Rongzhen was not completely powerless to resist. She pretended to be weak and cooperated with them all the way. Seeing that Jingshu was fine and that only Xi Jingyuan and his servant were at the scene, she thought to herself, what is there to wait for?
The moment the servant boy's knife was about to stab her, she quickly twisted her waist to avoid it, then turned her hand to break the other's wrist, and in the blink of an eye, she stabbed the blade into the servant boy's heart.
The servant boy immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, fell backwards with his eyes wide open, and died with his eyes open.
He probably didn't expect Rong Zhen to dare to resist and not be afraid of killing. She was nothing like the ordinary civilian woman they knew.
In the end, Xi Jingyuan was thrown into the woodshed next to the stable in the backyard by Jingshu, who planned to exchange him for a good price. Whether he was sold to Master Huang to be used for trouble, or waiting for the head of the Xi family to come and redeem him personally, it was an excellent arrangement.
Jingshu would not kill him. Death would be so much easier, and all would be over. If anyone dared to touch the one he loved, he would only let that person know what it meant to live a life worse than death!
Rongzhen had no objection to this at all. To deal with such a person, you have to find the part that he cares about most and poke it hard, so that he will feel the pain.
But Xi Jingyuan didn't think so. He felt that he still had a chance to turn things around, as long as he could convince Rong Zhen to help him.
So when Rongzhen received the cart of goods sent by Jingshu and drove the donkey back to the stable, Xi Jingyuan seized the opportunity to speak nonsense to her.
"Miss Song, my elder brother is just a gangster and can't give you a happy life."
"But I'm different. I'm the heir of the Xi family, a prestigious family in Kyoto. If Miss Song is willing to lend me a hand, I'd like to grant her the position of your concubine!"
"Bang!" The chestnut horse next door kicked its hoof, just in time to knock the water ladle in the trough onto Xi Jingyuan's shameless face.
Rong Zhen was stunned for a moment and looked Xi Jingyuan up and down in disbelief.
Forgive her for being so surprised. The male protagonist in this world is actually like this? No wonder the female protagonist looks down on him.
She also looked down on him. Not to mention compared with Jingshu who was now wholeheartedly staying by her side, even compared with the male protagonists in the previous worlds, in terms of character and morals alone, he was not even half as good as them, let alone anything else.
Xi Jingyuan cried out in pain, his fair face was swollen from the water scoop and was completely unsightly.
Rong Zhen shook her head and tutted, "You said you were so arrogant, yet you still promised me the position of a concubine? You act like being a concubine is something rare in your family. What kind of person would be willing to be a concubine? Am I someone who is willing to be a lowly person?"
Even Shi En acts superior. Is this the carefully trained son of an aristocratic family?
It has to be said that Rongzhen was very disappointed about this.
I thought that the martial arts world was full of swords and fighting all day long, and the court would be a little better, but it turned out that the most representative heir of a noble family is like this?
Isn't it true that all crows are black? Don't laugh at others for taking only fifty steps forward. Everyone has their own merits, demerits, pros and cons.
At this point, Rong Zhen gave up the idea of siding with the government. In such a dangerous world, she was lucky enough to be able to protect herself and her family. She didn't need to think about anything else.
Seven days later, the letter that Jingshu delivered to the head of the Xi family through the Xuanmen channel reached the hands of the real owner.
The meaning of the letter was very clear, that is, the heir that the other party had painstakingly raised had unfortunately fallen into his hands. Either he had to go to the door in person with money to redeem him, or he would sell him to Xuanmen and end this martial arts dispute provoked by the Xi family father and son.
Does Patriarch Xi dare to take the risk? He doesn't dare.
He knew exactly what his eldest son had suffered, and judging by his own experience, he didn't believe that the other party would let him go.
So after receiving the letter, he did not move at all. While strengthening the guards in the mansion, he picked out the best one from the illegitimate sons raised outside as backup candidates and brought him home to replace the eldest son, just as if this was the eldest son who was replaced by the greedy concubine.
Mrs. Xi was unwilling.
The reason why she could easily give up her own son was because she had developed true feelings for Xi Jingyuan and had deliberately bullied him many times when he was young. Even if her life story was exposed, she would not be able to cultivate much affection for him in return, so it was better to let the mistake go.
In this way, with Xi Jingyuan, whom she raised personally, around, her interests would not be greatly damaged. Instead, the master would need to compensate her a little.
But what about now? Both her biological and adopted sons were lost, and she got a concubine's son who had no emotional connection with her!
The future outcome is almost predictable, how can she be willing to accept it?
The result of Mrs. Xi's unwillingness was that she was locked up in the backyard, and after her concubine's biological mother came into the mansion to manage the household, she gradually became weak and seriously ill.
I wonder if she ever regretted it when she was lying on the sickbed, dying with no one to care for her.
Xi Jingyuan regrets it very much now. He shouldn't have confronted Jingshu rashly in a hurry, trying to force him to obey him. In the end, he lost both the wife and the army, and the loss outweighed the gain.
When Jingshu learned about what he had said to Rongzhen, "I am willing to give you a concubine", he felt that he was too soft-hearted, which gave him the opportunity to despise and humiliate his beloved.
That night he went over and crippled Xi Jingyuan's mouth and severed the tendons in his limbs, leaving him unable to speak, lift his hands, or walk, leaving him practically a cripple.
Later, the farce of the Xi family in Kyoto that had swapped the legitimate and illegitimate sons for many years broke out, along with the news that the eldest legitimate son had successfully returned to the throne. When it reached the ears of Xi Jingyuan, who was almost tortured into a puddle of mud, it finally made him understand everything and completely broke down.
"So that's how it is. It turns out I'm the bastard!"
"Father, why did you give up on me? Mother, don't you love me the most?"
"So I'm a joke, hahaha, big brother! I was wrong! Give me a quick death!"
Jingshu said that if he didn't kill him, he wouldn't kill him. He handed him over to Master Huang to report to the martial arts world. Seeing how miserable he was, the people in the martial arts world thought that it was too easy for him to die, so they would rather give him a reluctant treatment and let him be a beggar in Hongye Town.
Jingshu objected and suggested sending him back to Kyoto to be a beggar, where there would be more people who knew him and he would probably have a good chance to develop his talents.
After hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up and they gave thumbs up in praise. However, they turned around and warned their disciples and subordinates not to provoke the retired killer in the future, because he was a ruthless and wicked man with a white face and a black heart.
The disabled Xi Jingyuan was sent away in a panic. Rong Zhen thought of his identity as the male protagonist and looked up at the sky in suspicion.
It seems that nothing has changed. Could it be that this world doesn't care about plot twists?
That's not bad.
On the night when the matter was settled, Jingshu invited Rongzhen to watch the moon and drink, and told her all the grudges between him, Xi Jingyuan and the Xi family in Kyoto.
He was originally the legitimate son of a noble family, but was replaced by his concubine at birth. The concubine gave her own child to his biological mother to raise as the legitimate heir. As the eldest son of a concubine, he was bullied by the jealousy of the mistress of the house and was also treated maliciously and coldly by the concubine who thought he was her biological son. After he finally grew up to be seven or eight years old and was able to stand on his own, he was kicked to the secret guard camp by his biological father and was trained as a shadow of the heir of the Xi family.
The so-called Dark Guard Camp was actually a training ground for a killer organization. At the age of seven or eight, he had undergone countless inhuman torture trainings before he was finally able to crawl out from the pile of dead bodies and ascend to the throne of the ace killer of the Full Moon Tower. Unfortunately, he was soon controlled by poison in the tower and was held hostage by the head of the Xi family with blood ties, and he was never allowed to be free.
When he found out that Yu Bodu had betrayed him, he was completely desperate and wanted to end his life in the cave outside Taolin County.
Fortunately, there was the chestnut horse that was loyal to him and brought Rong Zhen, who was radiating the light of hope, to him.
His life, which was about to come to an end, was filled with hope again.
So he hopes to be able to walk hand in hand with her forever.
We will support each other throughout our lives.
Having said these heartfelt words, Jingshu took out the tokens of love that he had prepared long ago, a pair of red jade rings carved with patterns of cotinus coggygria branches and leaves.
Rong Zhen didn't say anything else after receiving it. She just asked him, "This doesn't look cheap. Where did you get the money? Tell me the truth!"
Jingshu knew she hadn't refused, but was deliberately changing the subject out of shyness. With a knowing smile, he went along with her meaning and replied, "I found the jade as a favor to Patriarch Huang, and the cost of the carving was the bounty he collected from catching bandits in his spare time."
I didn't use anything that shouldn't be used, nor did I hide any private money.
Rongzhen accepted them with satisfaction, put one on her wrist on the spot, and hung the other around someone's neck by weaving it into a rope with gold and silver threads.
You will be taken from now on, so be sure to keep a distance from other opposite sexes.
Jingshu understood her intentions without her having to explain. He pulled her into his arms and hugged her, saying intimately, "Wait until I go to Kyoto and take care of this last problem, then we'll come back and get married, okay?"
Rongzhen knew who he wanted to deal with, but did not recommend that he take the risk himself.
On the one hand, that man was his biological father after all. No matter what happened, patricide was never a good thing.
On the other hand, he has already sent Xi Jingyuan to Kyoto, where the disabled male protagonist is, and he doesn't believe that the head of the Xi family will have a good ending.
Rongzhen didn't want Jingshu to dirty his hands for that kind of rotten guy.
"If you're worried, I can go there with you to play and see what happened to that person."
Just treat it as a pre-wedding trip to see what the capital of a country in the world looks like.
"So, have you agreed to come back and get married?" Jingshu's focus is always so different.
Rongzhen couldn't help but glare at him.
Is there any need to ask such a question?
Idiot.
