Chapter 56: Not a Long Memory
Approaching the middle of the night, Shang Muyan sat in the council hall, one hand clenched into a fist, looking very angry. Duan Tianhong, who had broken his leg, was supported by two warriors and stood in front of Shang Muyan, looking embarrassed. After a while, I saw Shang Muyan slam the teacup on the ground, the tea splashed on the ground, and the teacup was shattered. Immediately, Shang Muyan suddenly stood up and said coldly, "I want to see who you are!"
It turned out that the reason why Shang Muyan was so angry was entirely because Duan Tianhong distorted the facts. Before, Shang Muyan originally asked Duan Tianhong to treat Luo Chen to the merchant to ask what was going on, but Duan Tianhong was really a sinister villain, and he actually had murderous intentions. However, what he never expected was that Li Youtian would appear, and what was even more important was that there was a bird as powerful as the Enchantress by Luo Chen's side. Therefore, his plan failed, Luo Chen kindly spared his life, but Duan Tianhong did not have a long memory, and after returning to the merchant, he actually said that Luo Chen refused to go to the merchant, and said that Miss Merchant's natural stunner, sooner or later one day he would take it for himself, and at the same time, he also fought and seriously injured Duan Tianhong, treating the merchant's samurai as nothing!
After listening to Duan Tianhong's words, and seeing the injuries on his body and the few remaining warriors, Shang Muyan naturally believed Duan Tianhong's words. That night, Shang Muyan let it go, vowing to break Luo Chen's body into ten thousand pieces to shock the majesty of the merchant, but Luo Chen didn't know all this.
Because the Li family delayed the marriage, Shang Yan was not confined to the house, and she could walk freely in Jiuli City, but for safety reasons, Shang Muyan still sent a few warriors to follow her in case anyone hurt her.
The next morning, Shang Yan and Xiaohuan were wandering around the city, and accidentally heard from the street vendor that the merchant was chasing and killing a person, Shang Yan was a little curious, so he leaned up and asked the vendor, "What did you just say?
The peddler naturally couldn't recognize Shang Yan, so he replied angrily: "Isn't this strange? It's not easy for a weapon like a merchant to kill a person!"
Shang Yan paused and continued: "Although the merchant is a weapon master, he has never killed innocents indiscriminately, you little guy is going to talk nonsense!"
The peddler chuckled lightly and said, "I'm talking nonsense? You don't go to inquire, everyone on the street knows about it! Girl, you don't know yet, I heard that someone wanted to insult Miss Merchant, and broke the leg of Duan Tianhong, the merchant's martial arts officer, so the merchant spoke out!"
At this time, Xiaohuan on the side couldn't help it, stepped forward, pointed to the vendor in front of him and shouted: "You don't want to talk nonsense, who is so bold as to dare to insult our family..."
Shang Yan thought about it for a while, and felt that this matter was a little strange, she was originally a merchant lady, although she was almost slighted when she ran away from home before, but in her opinion, those people had been killed by Luo Chen, who would tell this matter? Her first reaction was naturally Luo Chen.
Thinking of this, Shang Yan continued to ask, "Do you know the name of the person who was hunted down by the merchant, and where is it now?"
The peddler pointed to the notice on the side and said, "If I had known where that person was, I would have told the merchant a long time ago, and I would have received a lot of money!
After the words fell, Shang Yan and Xiaohuan came to the side of the notice wall, and they squeezed forward from the crowd, looking at the sign with a somewhat familiar face painted on it. Looking down further, Shang Yan was stunned, because she saw a name - Luo Chen. Only then did Shang Yan learn that it was his life-saving benefactor that the merchant was going to hunt down.
At this time, Xiaohuan opened his mouth and said, "Miss, what's going on? Obviously, it was Brother Luochen who saved us, but why did the master kill him?"
Shang Yan paused and said, "I think it should be Duan Tianhong's ghost, I have to go back immediately and tell my father the truth of the facts, I can't let him make such a big mistake!" As the words fell, Shang Yan and Xiaohuan rushed towards the merchant as fast as they could.
However, when Shang Yan returned home and told Shang Muyan the ins and outs of the matter, Shang Muyan didn't believe what she said, and said that Shang Yan hooked up outside in order not to marry into the Li family, which ruined the reputation of the merchant. In this way, Shang Yan was grounded at home again, she never thought that her father would listen to slander, saying that she said this, how could there be such a father in the world!
At the same time, Li Youtian was circling in his room, and he would put the folding fan away and open it at the same time. Seeing this, Luo Chen sighed and said, "Youtian Gongzi, don't dangle anymore, my head is about to be dizzy by you!"
Li Youtian stopped, stood in front of Luo Chen, and said: "I really didn't expect that Shang Muyan would be such an old thing who would take revenge, obviously you saved Shang Yan, but he still sent people around to kill you, I'm so angry!"
Luo Chen coughed and continued: "I'm not in a hurry, what are you anxious about! Once, there were many people who wanted my Luo Chen's life, but in the end they didn't succeed, you can rest assured, in this world, except for one person, my life will not be given to anyone! Besides, isn't this still your Youtian Gongzi!"
Hearing Luo Chen's words, Li Youtian was a little curious, leaned next to Luo Chen, and asked with a smile: "Tell me quickly, who is that person!"
Speaking of this, a person appeared in Luo Chen's mind, a woman who was as cold as frost and had a cold face, this person was Feng Xiaomo. They hadn't seen each other for three years since they separated, and in those three years, Luo Chen had thought of her for countless sleepless nights!
A smile appeared on the corner of Luo Chen's mouth, and said, "Why are you talking about this! We haven't seen each other for three years, and we don't know where she is now! Okay, let's not talk about this, I have to go to the merchant and explain this matter clearly!" After the words fell, Luo Chen stood up.
Seeing this, Li Youtian grabbed him and said, "You want to send him to death! I know better than you what kind of person Shang Muyan is, since he has said that he wants to put you to death, then he will definitely do what he says!"
Luo Chen paused and said, "Then what do you say, you can't let me suffer this injustice!
Li Youtian thought for a while and said, "If my expectations are correct, the reason why Shang Muyan did this must be because he listened to Duan Tianhong's slander, if you want to clear up the misunderstanding, you must also start with Duan Tianhong, let him take the initiative to tell the truth of the matter, so that it is stronger than you to explain in every way!"
Luo Chen nodded, indicating that he agreed with Li Youtian's words. After a while, Li Youtian continued: "Duan Tianhong broke a leg in the jungle, now he must be unable to move, recuperating in the merchant, if you want to catch him, you must go to the merchant, leave this matter to me!"
At this time, the demon queen who was standing on Luo Chen's shoulder suddenly jumped on the table and said, "Why bother so much, what kind of bullshit merchant, what bullshit merchant Mu Yan, let me go and end up such an idiot!"
Luo Chen smiled and said to the enchantress: "In that case, wouldn't I be like them! Although I like to solve problems with violence, I haven't reached that level yet!"
The Enchantress sighed and said, "Since that's the case, then let's take it by the way!"
Li Youtian was a little embarrassed on the side and asked, "What are you two talking about?"
Luo Chen smiled and replied, "It's nothing! Then this matter will trouble the Heavenly Prince!"
Li Youtian patted Luo Chen's shoulder and said, "Who are the two of us, if you can't even solve this little thing, what kind of friend are you!" Although Li Youtian is the young city lord of Jiuli City, there are many people around him on weekdays, but those people are different from the outside, and they have plans, so they don't really regard him as a friend at all. In his opinion, Luo Chen is different from those people, he is willing to make a friend of Luo Chen, and it is also the first friend in his life.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden sound of messy footsteps from outside the door, and then the door was pushed open, only to see Li Renyuan and General Ba Yuan appear outside the door with a few soldiers. Seeing this, Li Youtian immediately stepped forward and asked, "Dad, why are you here?"
Li Renyuan snorted coldly and scolded angrily: "Tian'er, who does this person know?"
Li Youtian looked back at Luo Chen and replied, "I know, he's my friend!"
Li Renyuan then asked, "Then do you know what his name is?"
"Luo Chen!" Li Youtian paused before replying.
As soon as the words fell, I saw Li Renyuan wave his hand and said, "Arrest this person for me and send him to the merchant!"
Seeing this, Li Youtian immediately stopped the soldiers who came forward and said, "What do you want to do... Dad, you really misunderstood, wait for Tian'er to tell you the ins and outs of the matter!" When leaving, Li Renyuan also loudly ordered General Ba Yuan and his soldiers to take care of Luo Chen, so as not to let him escape.
Li Youtian cleared his throat and told Li Renyuan what happened to the whole thing, Li Renyuan felt that the merchant's move was indeed a bit excessive, but considering the relationship between the two families, it was not easy for him to come forward to help Luo Chen solve the matter. Li Renyuan thought about it and said: "Tian'er, since this is the case, I am no longer embarrassed by Luo Chen, but... It's just that Luo Chen's affairs in the Li family will be known sooner or later, and Shang Muyan will definitely have something to say at that time, so you must arrange for him to leave as soon as possible. Of course, Luo Chen is your friend, and I will arrange a good place for him to stay outside!"
Li Youtian laughed out loud and said, "It's still my father who is reasonable, unlike the old guy Shang Muyan, who doesn't distinguish between right and wrong, and will take revenge!"
Li Renyuan glanced at him and said, "How can you speak! What old guy, that's your future father-in-law! Okay, Dad, I'll go and arrange a place for Luo Chen, and you will take him out of the Li family in a while!" Li Youtian nodded, and then Li Renyuan turned around and left, and when Ba Yuan and the others saw this, they immediately followed.
Li Youtian returned to the room, walked up to Luo Chen, opened the folding fan, and said, "How is it?
Luo Chen gave a thumbs up and said, "Righteousness! but... Your father is right, sooner or later, the merchant will know that you brought me to the Li family, and they will definitely come to the door to ask for someone, which will have all the impact on the relationship between the two of you, so I still choose to leave!" After the words fell, Luo Chen stood up and prepared to leave.
Li Youtian blocked his way and said: "What kind of person do you think of me Li Youtian, even if you live in our house, Shang Muyan personally comes to ask for someone, I won't give it! Not to mention that there is my father's support, you can rest assured! You also heard it just now, although my father asked me to take you out to live, but this matter was arranged by him personally!"
Luo Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "I will personally thank Old City Lord Li another day!"
