Chapter 2469: Venting Out Anger
There was silence in the lobby, but Meng Ying felt some undercurrents.
Ever since Fang Xing was given the honorary title of Prince's Young Master, Meng Ying has been involved in the battle between heaven and man.
He knew that as long as the prince was nurtured by Fang Xing for a few years, after he ascended the throne, the current batch of military achievements would definitely be fruitless.
Now that things have come to an end, he feels a little calmer.
Xue Lu whispered: "The British Duke went to the border wall after celebrating the New Year. This is probably because His Majesty did not want him to get involved."
Meng Ying nodded, and then said: "It's time to calm down. As I said before, no one can save anyone, we can only save ourselves!"
Chen Zhong had put aside his grudge with Fang Xing at this moment. He just thought for a moment that his title would become Uncle Taining after his death, and his chest felt like it was being burned by fire.
He looked around, and most of the martial artists were like this. Some even pulled their clothes, looking very hot.
"I want Fang to wake up and talk!"
Chen Zhong felt that this could not happen anymore. If this continued, everyone would slowly wait to die.
"Yes, if he wants to be separated from us, that's not said. From now on, we will just treat him as our opponent."
"I'm afraid of him! Is it possible that he, Fang Xing, can survive so many of us?"
"The worst case scenario is that both sides will suffer. He is very ardent towards his two sons. It can be seen that he wants them to inherit their father's legacy..."
"..."
Meng Ying just sneered when she heard these words, then gave Xue Lu a wink, and the two of them left the lobby one after another.
"how?"
The wrinkles on Xue Lu's face could almost kill mosquitoes.
Meng Ying said disappointedly: "It's a mess. These people all think about being rich and prosperous for generations. They also know that Your Majesty will not allow generations of incompetent relatives to be rich and prosperous, but they just like to deceive themselves as if they are drunk. But what!"
Xue Lu nodded and said, "No matter how much you and I say here, it's still useless. I'm going."
Meng Ying said in shock: "Marquis Yangwu, where are you going?"
Xue Lu solemnly said that he was going. This must not mean going home to eat and shit.
"It is so important to enthrone the crown prince, how could Fang Dehua fail to do so? I went to greet him."
Meng Ying hesitated to speak, and finally just watched Xue Lu strode away.
He wanted to tell Xue Lu, even if he met Fang Xing, what could you say?
…
The capital is the center of the world, with a constant flow of people from the north and south.
The Lugou River flows quietly, and there is a long stretch of shops along the river.
This distance is the best place to stop whether you are seeing off or coming to the capital.
Most of these shops sell wine and food, and some merchants are flexible and offer specialties from the capital and the north, providing convenience for returning customers who don't have time to buy them.
It was almost noon when Xue Lu arrived.
At this moment, most of the people here are people coming to Beijing. Among the crowded carriages and horses, some people are shouting loudly to solicit guests, some are shouting to be careful of candles, and then some people are shouting that their money bags have been stolen...
After a thief succeeded, he blended into the crowd, where the three members of the family whose money bag had been stolen were howling.
The ragged family cried out that they were here to visit relatives and that the money bag was all their family's property.
This person is not here to visit relatives, but to take advantage of the current loose household registration management to live in Peiping.
But after all their wealth was stolen, this family would probably be in trouble. They would have no way of living and could only become beggars, and then be picked up by the people of Shuntian Mansion and sent away to their place of origin.
Xue Lu's eyes followed a man in the crowd.
"Dad...Mom..."
When the four or five-year-old boy saw his parents crying sadly, he hugged his mother in panic and started crying.
Xue Lu said coldly: "Bow and arrow!"
A servant behind him said: "Master,
Will be impeached. "
Xue Lu's eyelids twitched, and there was blood in his eyes. He stretched out his hand: "Bow and arrow!"
With the bow and arrow in hand, Xue Lu suddenly became a different person.
He opened his bow and nocked the arrow for just a moment, then took aim slightly and released his right hand.
The man just squeezed out of the crowd and was about to cross the bridge.
The bowstring vibrated and the arrow flew out.
There were quite a few people on the bridge at the moment. As soon as the man stepped onto the bridge in a hurry, he felt his thighs shake. Inertia made him take this leg out, and then he felt severe pain...
"ah!"
The man fell down there with a long arrow stuck in his butt, and then he still managed to climb up the bridge.
The scene frightened those people.
"Killed!"
A man was looking at the waist of the woman in front of him. After seeing the tragic scene, he subconsciously jumped off the bridge.
There was chaos on the bridge. The man took out a money bag from his arms. Just as he raised his hand, a big foot suddenly stepped on it from behind.
The sound of a broken arm was clear, but the screams overwhelmed the chaotic sounds of wolves running around on the bridge.
The money bag was picked up by the man behind him. He turned around and shouted: "This is the thief who stole the money!"
The money bag was shaking, and the panicked people calmed down, and then they all looked at Xue Lu, who had just handed the long bow to the servant.
"I am Xue Lu."
The sergeants guarding the market came over and after verifying Xue Lu's identity, they all knelt on the ground to plead guilty.
Xue Lu's servant handed the money bag to the male owner of the family of three, and then received a thank you that was almost like a new parent.
"He should first ask what is in the money bag and then return it to him after matching it one by one."
Xue Lu shook his head and said, "That's not a problem. That family of three are not from the south. You should know that."
"Yeah, you were an accident, so they had to lure you away."
"They were able to come up with a way to move me to take action in an instant, which shows that the person who directed them is very resourceful."
"But now he's running away."
"Will you let them go?"
Xue Lu turned around and saw Fang Xing wearing a low-class shorts, and couldn't help but smile: "Are you also worried about being intercepted?"
"Interception is useless."
Fang Xing was looking at the other side. A group of people just took advantage of the chaos and ran over.
"This is a warning."
Xue Lu looked moved and said: "You said he is the vassal king?"
Fang Xing nodded: "In recent years, many vassal kings have been communicating with Wu Xun. Marquis Yangwu, you are a trusted minister of His Majesty, so they dare not come to you."
Xue Lu's eyes became stern and he asked: "Who?"
Fang Xing smiled and said, "It's best to keep a low profile when people don't take matters into their own hands."
Xue Lu's eyes narrowed and he asked: "Is it a weapon that avoids rats?"
On the other side, Xin Laoqi and his servants had already caught up with the group.
The last man suddenly turned around and pounced. Xin Laoqi dodged and Fang Liu swung his sword behind him.
"Killing!"
Chaos began on the other side, and someone shouted: "The government is arresting thieves. Everyone, move to the side. Don't run away!"
Several sergeants were directing the crowd to go to both sides, and Xin Laoqi in the middle had already caught up with the enemy.
The light of the sword flashed on the other side, and the screams could be heard clearly.
Fang Xing smiled and said: "It's just a tool to avoid the enemy. You have to know that innovation is never motivated by emotion."
"That's why Your Majesty tested your relatives again and again."
"Yes, your Majesty is astonished by the speed with which your relatives have fallen. Most of them are useless."
"Then... what will happen in the future? What is the future prince's attitude towards his relatives? No, it's Wu Xun. Who cares about the death of those relatives of the emperor!"
Xue Lu asked seriously.
Those on the other side had been surrounded and killed by Fang Xing's servants and the cavalry who had followed them.
Fang Xing shook his head, not sure whether he was disappointed with the strength of those thieves or with Wu Xun.
"Marquis Yangwu, you have to be tough to strike iron!"
Fang Xing didn't want to lie to him, "Even the vassal king has to be enfeoffed. Do the relatives still want to be above the vassal king?"
Xue Lu's face turned pale. Fang Xing turned his head when he saw it, but did not comfort him.
"So who is this today?"
Since Fang Xing came prepared, he must have received some news.
Xue Lu just hoped that it would not be Xunqi, otherwise the emperor would label Xunqi as an unreliable group. When the time comes that the relatives are incompetent and cannot be trusted, then they will really have nothing.
Fang Xing shook his head: "Don't check, there's no need."
Xue Lu felt relieved and felt that there was still room for saving the matter.
Fang Xing said: "These are just small things."
His tone was indifferent, as if it was really a small matter.
Innovation cannot treat everyone as an opponent, otherwise it will be courting death. ...
