Chapter 51: A lifesaver
Duan Tianhong is a person who is good at observing words and feelings, although he and Luo Chen are meeting for the first time, and they don't know much about him. But he has been in the merchant for so many years, and he does know a lot about the eldest lady of the merchant, Shang Yan, between his words, he has seen that Shang Yan has a good impression of Luo Chen, and seeing that Shang Yan's wedding date is approaching, he will definitely not let anything or anyone ruin this matter. Originally, Shang Yan was reluctant to marry the Li family, and if Luo Chen had anything to do with it again, then Shang Yan would not marry into the Li family. Therefore, Duan Tianhong resolutely did not let Luo Chen enter the city, for fear that he would get involved in this matter.
When the man's words fell, he saw Duan Tianhong immediately put away his sword, and said very respectfully: "It turned out to be Youtian Gongzi, you came just in time, this kid is so bold that he dares to be disrespectful to our young lady, fortunately, I came in time to stop him, but this kid is not dead, he actually wants to chase him to the city!"
From Duan Tianhong's words and deeds, Luo Chen could roughly guess the identity of the man in front of him, he walked up to the man and said: "Youtian Gongzi? Presumably, Your Excellency is Li Youtian, the young master of the Jiuli City City Lord's family, some people just like to open their eyes and talk nonsense, obviously I saved his young lady, and I want to distort the facts, saying that I have a wrong thought, which is really ridiculous!
Duan Tianhong was a little angry, pointed at Luo Chen and scolded: "It seems that you don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin, and if you don't give you some color, it seems that you won't know each other!"
Li Youtian on the side smiled and said, "Duan Tianhong, is it because I don't exist, do you have the right to speak here?"
At this time, I saw Li Youtian clear his throat, put his hand on Luo Chen's shoulder, and then brought it to the foot of the city wall. Seeing this, Duan Tianhong snorted coldly, and secretly thought to himself: "Boy, offending the merchant is equivalent to offending the Li family, and you will feel good next!"
Luo Chen pushed Li Youtian's hand away and said, "What do you want to do? If you want to fight, Luo Chen will accompany me to the end, don't play any tricks with me!"
Li Youtian looked back at Duan Tianhong not far away, coughed dryly, and said: "This brother, don't misunderstand, I'm here to help you, this Duan Tianhong is not a good thing, I have long seen him unpleasantly, and when I want to make a move, I will definitely beat him hard!"
Luo Chen paused, not understanding what Li Youtian meant by this, and asked, "What do you mean? Aren't you going to become the son-in-law of the merchant soon? I won't fall for you!"
Li Youtian sighed and said: "Who wants to be the son-in-law of the merchant, if it weren't for my father's appointment of a baby, I wouldn't have bothered to take care of their merchant! Brother, don't you know, how happy I am now, if I really marry the eldest lady of the merchant, how will I live in the future! Just now I heard Duan Tianhong say that you want to insult the eldest lady of the merchant, this is good, I will take you into the city, and the eldest lady of the merchant will give it to you, so that I don't have to marry her, the best of both worlds, what do you think?"
Luo Chen understood Li Youtian's words, and he didn't want to marry any merchant lady at all. Luo Chen paused, thinking that Shang Yan had also said that he didn't want to marry Li Youtian when he was in the jungle before, so he ran out. Luo Chen said with a smile: "Women don't want to marry, men don't want to marry, what kind of family business are you! Also, don't listen to Duan Tianhong's nonsense, I just went into the city to have something to do, and I didn't have any other ideas by the way!"
Seeing this, Li Youtian grabbed him and continued: "If you don't help me solve this matter today, don't think about going to the city!"
Luo Chen looked back at Li Youtian and said, "Are you just relying on me? You and I don't know each other, why should I help you? Besides, I'm not stupid enough to push myself into the fire pit!"
Li Youtian put his hand on Luo Chen's shoulder again, and said with a smile: "We didn't know each other before, but now we don't know each other! You say, as long as you are willing to help me deal with the relationship with Miss Merchant, I will promise you any conditions!"
Luo Chen's heart moved and asked, "Is this true?"
Li Youtian nodded heavily, and replied: "You don't want to inquire, my Youtian Gongzi is famous in Jiuli City, only you can't think of it, there is nothing I can't do!"
Luo Chen nodded slightly, and said, "In that case, I have a good way!"
"Let's hear it!" Li Youtian said impatiently.
Luo Chen glanced at Duan Tianhong not far away, and said with a smile: "Isn't it over if you go to the merchant and return the marriage! It's so simple, and use me to help you!" When he was in the jungle before, Luo Chen promised Shang Yan to let the Li family quit this family business, and now is a good opportunity.
Listening to Luo Chen's words, Li Youtian hurriedly shook his head and said, "This is not good, my father has to break my leg, your move is not a wise move!"
Luo Chen continued: "You can't let the merchant come to withdraw from the marriage, it will hurt your face so much!
Li Youtian took a deep breath and said, "How could the merchant withdraw from the marriage, they wish they had done it earlier! I also want to withdraw from this family business, but the marriage certificate is not with me, how can I withdraw it!"
Luo Chen spread his hands and said, "Since this is the case, then I have no choice, you can figure it out yourself, I still have something to do in the city!" Li Youtian followed Luo Chen into the city, leaving only Duan Tianhong standing there I don't know why, he was still secretly happy to enter the city, what kind of method will the prince of Youtian use to clean him up!
For Li Youtian, Luo Chen's appearance is like a life-saving straw, in Jiuli City, no one dares to have anything to do with Miss Merchant, Luo Chen is the first and so far the only one. Li Youtian originally wanted Luo Chen to hook up with Miss Merchant, so he would have a reason not to marry Miss Merchant, but if this is the case, Luo Chen's life will definitely be difficult in the future, not only will the people of the merchant not let him go, but even the people of the Li family will not easily spare him, but fortunately, Luo Chen saw Li Youtian's intentions and did not fall for him.
After entering the city, Li Youtian never had the intention of giving up, and kept talking in Luo Chen's ear like a fly. As he walked, Luo Chen suddenly stopped, looked back at Li Youtian and said, "You are endless! Don't think that if you are the young master of the Li family, I won't dare to do it, I will provoke me, and I will not have you good fruit to eat!" I warn you, don't follow me anymore!" Luo Chen is really a little annoyed, he has never seen such a brazen person.
Li Youtian smiled and said, "You don't look at whose territory this is, as long as I say a word, you don't want to get out of this city, believe it or not!"
Luo Chen nodded and said, "I believe, I believe... But don't follow me anymore, can you, big brother!"
Li Youtian opened the folding fan, fanned it lightly in front of him, and said, "As long as you promise to help me get the merchant lady, I promise to leave immediately, otherwise, I will follow you wherever you go!"
Luo Chen shook his head helplessly, and said, "There is a brazen person like you in the world, today I can be regarded as a long insight!"
Luo Chen thought about it, seeing that the time for Jiuli Palace to recruit new apprentices was coming, and this Li Youtian in front of him was the son of the city lord of Jiuli City, if there was his help, it would be much easier to enter Jiuli Palace, so Luo Chen had a new plan.
Luo Chen patted Li Youtian on the shoulder and said, "It's not that I don't want to help you, it's that I have more than enough heart and not enough strength, and besides, how can that merchant look down on me as a mountain and a wild man." But right now I have an idea, I wonder if you can give it a try!"
Li Youtian's face was overjoyed, and he asked, "What's the idea, hurry up and I'll listen to it!" When the words fell, I saw Luo Chen touch his stomach and said with a smile: "Do you want me to tell you hungry?"
Li Youtian clapped his hands and said, "Oops... It's all to blame for the brother's lack of eyesight, go, I'll take you to the biggest restaurant in Jiuli City!"
After a while, Li Youtian took Luo Chen to a place called Chunxiang Building, and saw a group of thinly dressed and bewildering women standing on top of the Chunxiang Building. Seeing this, Luo Chen immediately stopped Li Youtian and said, "Brothel, what are you bringing me here for?"
Luo Chen's words fell, and he saw a woman in her early thirties striding from Chunxiang Building, wearing red and green, this person came to Li Youtian, and said very enthusiastically: "Li Gongzi, you haven't come to us for a long time, and the girls want to kill you... Hurry up, Li Gongzi is here and arrange a seat!"
Li Youtian pulled Luo Chen towards Chunxiang Building, and said: "Brother, you don't know this, Chunxiang Building is heaven and earth, and it has everything!
Li Youtian took Luo Chen to the top floor of Chunxiang Building, found a luxurious private room and sat down, only to see a group of scantily clad women rushing in from outside the door, they crowded to Li Youtian's side, and shouted in unison: "Youtian Gongzi, what do you want to play today?"
Seeing this, Luo Chen stood up abruptly and said to Li Youtian, "You can enjoy it here slowly!"
Li Youtian immediately came to Luo Chen's face, blocked his way, and said, "Brother, if you don't like me to let them go, don't go, I still expect you to give me some guidance!"
Li Youtian left Luo Chen, turned back to those women and said, "I have something important to discuss with this brother, you all go out! By the way, bring me all the good wine and meat you have here!" After listening to Li Youtian's words, I saw that the group of women left unwillingly!
After everything returned to calm, Li Youtian leaned towards Luo Chen and asked, "Hurry up and tell me your good idea!"
Luo Chen didn't answer Li Youtian's words directly, but said, "Is the time for Jiuli Palace to recruit new apprentices almost up?"
