Chapter 65: Guards and Guards

Mo Lizhen faces harassment from wolves, and the mayor of the town is responsible for eliminating wild wolves and maintaining the safety of all people in the town.

At the critical moment, of course, Ren Sheng couldn't let his hard-earned family business and Sanzhi territory be ruined, so he had to postpone the marriage proposal and the punishment of the little thief by one step, and said to Qin Xingyi:

"Wild wolves are cunning and ferocious by nature, and it is not easy to kill wolves! Our marriage proposal can be put aside for a while. The issue of Xuanyuan Mingyu also needs to be discussed later. At present, everyone needs to work together to deal with foreign enemies, what does the eldest lady think? ”

Of course, Qin Xingyi understood the urgency of the matter, and nothing was as important as fighting the wolf, but he still had to hurry up and properly arrange Xuanyuan Mingyu's whereabouts, and said:

"Of course, Miss Ben is not an ignorant person! For the time being, leave Xuanyuan Mingyu at the blacksmith shop, and Miss Ben and you will go to the town gate to see the situation. ”

Ren Sheng disagreed with Qin Xingyi's proposal, feeling that it was very unsure to leave Xuanyuan Mingyu in the blacksmith shop, in case Xu Blacksmith's love was overflowing, and he moved there to be a set of chivalry and righteousness, it was very likely that he would escape or hide with Xuanyuan Mingyu.

"No! Xuanyuan Mingyu can't leave the sight of the Seven Heroes of Renfu, and he has to take him with him when he fights wolves, and he can't be given another chance to escape. Ren Sheng said categorically.

"Well, Miss Ben will take him with her."

"Done! However, in order to prevent the thief from escaping, he must be shackled these days. Ren Sheng refused to budge any longer.

"That'...... Okay, too. Qin Xingyi thought that in case the shackles got in the way in the future, he could use the treasure knife to split it. Now Ren Sheng has a bullish temper, he is stubborn, and he can't help it at all, there is no other way.

Qin Xingyi looked out of the window and saw Xuanyuan Mingyu standing strong in the courtyard, and her heart suddenly jumped, and she felt very sorry for him. The shackles were too heavy, and if he was forced to put them on, how hard would it be for him to walk?

Ren Qiang walked out of the hall, came to Xuanyuan Mingyu, looked up and down, ignored him for the time being, and said to Xu Xiaodi, who was supporting Xuanyuan Mingyu:

"Go into the house, go and discuss with your father, when you fight the wolf, do you want to go with your father? Or leave you alone at home? Both of these are dangerous, and you and your dad should think about them seriously. ”

"Then don't bully the little brother."

"What do you say? The mayor of this town has always been fair and everyone knows it. You're a little kid, it's best not to mess with adults! It's just going to be a disservice and turn into a tricky mess. ”

Xu Xiaodi believed Ren Sheng's words, turned his head to Xuanyuan Mingyu and said, "Big brother, can you stand here alone?" I'm going to my dad. ”

"It's okay...... There you go. Xuanyuan Mingyu held on to the wall with one hand, stood firm, and tried to smile as much as possible to reassure Xiaodi.

"Then I'll finish discussing it with my father, and I'll come out to find you right away, big brother, you're waiting for me." Xu Xiaodi was relieved, and before leaving, she didn't forget to say a word of advice, and ran into the hall.

Ren Sheng smirked and watched Xu Xiaodi enter the house, turned his face, put away his smirk, turned into a cold face, and said, "Little thief, are you willing to obey?" According to the family law, the matter of thirty lashes will be written down first, and you will be spared for the time being. However, torture instruments must be worn, which is a sign of the punishment of the prisoners. ”

"No!"

"What? Mayor Ben didn't hear me clearly, do you dare to say it again? I'm already very tolerant of you, and the mayor of this town has repeatedly given in, don't you know what to do! Otherwise, thirty lashes will be executed immediately! As soon as Ren Sheng unexpectedly asked, he immediately ate a closed door, suppressed his anger and emphasized and threatened.

"Don't be delusional! I won't listen to you! I didn't kidnap Miss Ren Er, you wronged good people indiscriminately, and you didn't believe what Miss Ren Er explained, what kind of fairness did you say about imposing these trumped-up charges on my head? Xuanyuan Mingyu's voice was not loud, but he said it very clearly.

"Stop! Mayor Ben doesn't have time to listen to your quibbles right now! Mo Lizhen found a pack of wolves outside the town, and he couldn't just watch everyone being eaten by wolves. ”

"In that case, you go and do not worry about me."

"Nonsense, you think you're free? Bah! A criminal! You should be imprisoned and dealt with by the family law! It's just that Miss Qin has repeatedly spoken for you, and your whipping sentence is temporarily waived, but you don't want to be lazy, you have to go to fight wolves with us. ”

Xuanyuan Mingyu listened to Ren Sheng's words with contradictions, and asked, "Take me to fight wolves?" Why do you want to lock me with leg irons, I can't walk easily, how can I fight wolves? Do you want me to be eaten by wolves? You guys are so ill-intentioned! ”

"Little thief, are you still aggrieved? How can you do it without locking you up? You've already escaped once, and you want to escape a second time? You are wishful thinking, and you want the Seven Heroes of Renfu to be laughed at as eating dry rice for nothing? Ren Sheng couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, staring at a series of questions.

"You're thinking too much...... If you don't look at me now, how can I have the strength to escape? ”

Xuanyuan Mingyu said a little dejectedly, looking left and right, although some people were gone in the courtyard, there were still seven or eight strong guards around him, and there was also a man with a short stature but muscles on his arms, this man was the seventh man of Renfu.

In the courtyard of the blacksmith shop, only the eldest and seventh of the seven heroes of the Ren Mansion remained. Ren Sheng thinks that having himself and Lao Qi here is enough to solve the problem here.

Qin Xingyi heard Ren Sheng's words to suspend the whipping through the window of the hall, and was deeply relieved for Xuanyuan Mingyu, now there is only one thing left to put on the torture instrument, and there should be no worries, so he walked back to the chair in the hall and sat down, and said to the blacksmith Xu father and son:

"Lao Xu, Miss Ben knows that you are chivalrous, willing to save people in danger, and don't pay attention to money. However, the situation is very serious, and we need to be honest with each other. ”

"Okay, Miss, you say."

"Lao Xu, to tell you the truth, Xuanyuan Mingyu is the third prince of the Xuanyuan Dynasty and is of noble birth, but he is a major suspect in killing my father! Of course, before he confesses, Miss Ben will not be careless about human life! ”

"Yes, the eldest lady is wise."

"Miss Ben has decided to find out the truth, and when everything is not clear, I will not hurt him again, and at the same time I will not let anyone else hurt him, so I would like to ask you to be his guard, and the responsibility is twofold: to protect him, and to prevent him from escaping." Qin Xingyi's words were full of emotion and sincerity.

Blacksmith Xu listened, and was secretly happy for Xuanyuan Mingyu, at least Qin Xingyi decided not to hurt Xuanyuan Mingyu for the time being, then, Xuanyuan Mingyu has Qin Xingyi as a backer, and the people of Renfu can't kill Xuanyuan Mingyu after all.

Blacksmith Xu admired Qin Xingyi very much when he watched her deeds and heard her words, and felt that she was not very old, she was steady, and the city was very deep, and she was the eldest princess of the Western Qin Kingdom, and she was not unyielding in doing things under her, so she nodded and said:

"Miss, let's be honest, Xu has been living in seclusion as a blacksmith in the past few years, and he is really angry, and he feels very depressed and panicked! Now that I am back in the rivers and lakes, I am really honored to be able to obey the orders of the eldest lady, and Xu agreed to be the caretaker of the third prince. ”

Qin Xingyi felt extremely relieved to see that Blacksmith Xu agreed, and the smile that had not been seen for a long time was displayed on his face, and the smile warmed the hearts of the people present.

Xu Xiaodi happened to walk in and saw it, and shouted: "Little star, you look so good when you smile." ”

Qin Xingyi smiled shyly and asked, "Xiaodi, your father promised to be my bodyguard, and Miss Ben also invited you to be my scholar, in that case, you and your father can stay by Miss Ben's side." Do you promise? ”

Xu Xiaodi glanced at his father as if asking for advice, and when he saw his father nodding, he hurriedly said, "Okay, little star." Will you take me as a disciple in the future? ”

"Xiaodi, you sit as a scholar first, and when the time is ripe later, Miss Ben is taking you as an apprentice, okay?"

"Okay, little star has to talk and count!" Xu Xiaodi felt very happy, suddenly remembered Xuanyuan Mingyu, and asked: "Little star, then can you also let the little brother stay by your side, don't let those bad people bully him." ”

Qin Xingyi smiled, feeling that Xu Xiaodi's child was really innocent and cute, and patiently explained: "That's what happened!" Your father's current mission is to be his caretaker. ”

Blacksmith Xu was very grateful to Qin Xingyi for arranging a way out for his son, so that he would have no reason to stay in Moli Town. Since then, the sky is high and the birds can fly, and the sea is wide and the fish jumps! He and his son want to follow the eldest princess Qin Xingyi to travel in all directions.

Blacksmith Xu was very excited when he thought of this, and took the initiative to ask, "Miss, what should I do next?" If the wolves don't retreat or eradicate one day, we will be trapped in Moli Town, and we can't deliver letters, and people can't do without them. ”

Qin Xingyi thought for a moment and asked, "Old Xu, Xuanyuan Mingyu has injuries on his body, Xiaodi is still young, the two of them will definitely not be able to travel long distances!" Is there any way you can take them with you? ”

"There is a way! I have a two-wheeled trolley at home. I can push the two of them to hurry, even if I go to the ends of the earth. ”

"Trolleys?"

"Yes, I researched and built this car myself. I'm an iron striker, it's not difficult to build these things, as long as the design is clever and flexible, the two-wheeled vehicle can make a big difference, and the eldest lady will wait and see. ”

Qin Xingyi couldn't help but think that the combat carriages of the Western Qin Kingdom were all wheelbarrows, and it was very inconvenient to turn during the battle, and it was very easy to overturn when they encountered a ditch. If you modify the vehicle into a two-wheeled vehicle, it should be even more powerful!

Qin Xingyi blurted out praise: "Lao Xu, you are worthy of being an inventor, and you will rely on you to transform our country's chariot in the future, and then the army of the Western Qin Kingdom will act quickly and quickly, and kill the enemy by surprise!" ”

When Blacksmith Xu heard the praise, he felt that he was very valued, and a smile appeared on his face that had experienced vicissitudes, and he suddenly heard a scream outside the window, and hurriedly ran to the window to look out.

In the courtyard, Ren Mansion Lao Qi got the boss's hint, quietly walked around behind Xuanyuan Mingyu, waved a three-section stick and suddenly sneaked attack, and smashed down on Xuanyuan Mingyu's back shoulder.

Xuanyuan Mingyu heard the whistling of weapons from behind him, but he was weak and couldn't dodge, and he received a heavy blow on his shoulder. His shoulder had been cut by Xu Xiaodi, and now he was mercilessly hit by the three-section stick, and he couldn't help but let out a miserable scream.
