Chapter 121

His vacation is running out.Rationally, he should return to the capital to perform his duties as soon as possible.

But could he just leave her and walk away?

Even though she ignored him, he still wanted to protect her under his wings so that she would not suffer any further harm.

After Xu Chun stayed at the inn for a day, he made a new itinerary.

"We took a carriage to Luzhou and took a boat down the Yangtze River. After arriving in the south of the Yangtze River, we went north along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to the capital. This way there will be less bumps along the way, which is good for tire protection."

Fang Yuanzhi faced him on the bed and did not answer him.

Xu Chun didn't ask for her opinion, but just informed her.

He bought her a little maid to serve her personally, and set off early the next morning with Fang Yuanzhi.

Staying at the family in Luzhou at night, Xu Chun and Huai'an went out to arrange boats, Qingshan and the little maid accompanied Fang Yuanzhi to stay at the inn to rest.

When Xu Chun returned to the inn, he instinctively drew out his long sword and slowly pushed open the door of the room.

The four assassins waiting in the dark rushed forward.

With Huai'an's help, it is not difficult to fight two against four.

However, more and more assassins appeared, there were a dozen of them!

Xu Chun sneered, he really thinks highly of himself!
He blew a whistle, and the guards who had been secretly protecting him came out and joined the battle.

Xu Chun occasionally dealt with the assassins who came to him once or twice, while he devoted himself to finding Fang Yuanzhi's whereabouts.

Fortunately, Fang Yuanzhi, Qing Shan, and the little maid were just tied up and thrown in a corner.

The number of the two sides was about the same, and they were both highly skilled in martial arts. It was hard to tell the winner for a while, the fight was in full swing, the sound of weapons colliding, and screams could be heard endlessly, which alarmed many guests in the inn, but no one dared to come forward to argue.

The owner of the inn hurriedly sent Xiao Er to report to the officials, and hid himself in the distance, hoping that these people would be gentle and not damage his inn.

Before the official soldiers arrived, another group joined the battle.

Xu Chun took a closer look, and found that it was actually helping him!
The battle quickly became one-sided. Many assassins were all captured, and most assassins committed suicide by poisoning. Only one had his jaw pinched off in time and attempted suicide.

Xu Chunzheng was curious about who the helper was, but a scribe in his 20s came out, and he bowed his hands and said, "Brother Xu, it's a farewell to the capital, I didn't expect to meet here!"

Xu Chun's eyes turned slightly, and he quickly remembered that this person's surname was Wan Mingyi, and he was a director of the Ministry of Rites, whom he met once.

"Brother Wan, thank you for your help!"

While saying hello, Xu Chun ordered Huai'an to untie Fang Yuanzhi and the others.

Huai'an came over to ask Xu Chun with blood in one hand, his eyes hesitated to speak, and he glanced at Fang Yuanzhi who was still lying on the ground curled up in a ball.

Xu Chun was shocked, and stepped forward to check on Fang Yuanzhi. Seeing that her eyes were closed, her body was covered in sweat, and her body was covered with blood, she kept shouting: "Doctor, doctor!"

Wan Yi's expression was shocked.

The person in Xu Chun's arms was dressed as a man, but with his pale face and frail body, he was somewhat indistinguishable from male and female.

When the doctor came to take the pulse and said it was a miscarriage symptom, Wan Yi suddenly realized.

He regretted that he didn't leave early and meddled in other people's private affairs.

The officers and soldiers arrived, conducted an investigation of the sudden incident here, and came to a preliminary conclusion: "This is a gang of rogues, who only acted in order to rob money."

Wan Yi sneered, since they were rogues who robbed money, how could they commit suicide by taking poison together?This well-trained ability is beyond the reach of rogues!
He didn't know who Xu Chun had offended, but his father Wan An had served in the Imperial Academy for many years and knew that the Xu family had a deep foundation in the court, so he had asked him to get in touch with the Xu family more, so he came to help.

Yang Lingshan, the prefect of Luzhou, rushed over quickly, but waited for a long time before seeing Xu Chun.

Prefect Yang simply chatted with Wan Yi.

Before Xu Chun came out, someone wanted to break into the inn which was already surrounded by government soldiers.

Huai'an, Xu Chun's servant, came out to coordinate, and said that the person came from Jiyang Wei Qianhu in the capital city, who was also a relative of the Xu family, so Yang Zhifu ordered the officers and soldiers to quickly let him into the inn, with a kind and flattering attitude.

Wan Yi was secretly surprised!

Wan Yi is from Meizhou, Meizhou is not far from Luzhou, so he knows a thing or two about the magistrate Yang, everyone calls him a ruthless and unrecognizable master, and he sometimes flatters and flatters him!
Then Xu Chun is just a seventh-rank chief of the Ministry of War. At most, he cares about generals, but not civil servants. Why does Yang Zhifu treat him so respectfully?
Wan Yi couldn't help being cautious, paying close attention to every move of Xu Chun and the others.

When it was dawn, Xu Chun came out to meet Yang Zhifu and Wan Yi with a blank face.The tiredness between his brows and eyes showed that he hadn't slept all night.

Xu Chun cupped his hands and said to the magistrate Yang: "Since it's a rebellion caused by bandits, my lord should deal with it according to the normal procedure. I'm sorry, my lord Yang."

Prefect Yang happily said, "What Wang Chuan said is true."

Wan Yi knew that it seemed that the magistrate Yang and Xu Chun were old acquaintances.

Xu Chun turned to Wan Yi again, with a sincere attitude: "Thank you, Brother Wan, for your generous help, so that Wang Chuan will not fall into a state of regret! Please, Brother Wan, accept Wang Chuan's worship!"

Xu Chun got up immediately and gave Wan Yi a big gift.

If it had been delayed longer, Fang Yuanzhi's bleeding might not be stopped, and his life might not be saved.

Wan Yi frantically dodged sideways, and helped Xu Chun up with her own hands, very embarrassed: "How can I afford this?"

Yang Zhifu said: "If Wangchuan has to stay in Luzhou for a few more days, it is better to move to the other courtyard below. There are people coming and going here, and it is difficult to guarantee safety."

Xu Chunlue pondered for a moment and then said: "No need, I will leave by boat in two days, and those with injured relatives will not be able to move frequently, thank you Lord Yang for your kindness."

Yang Zhifu said: "It's easy to say, easy to say. Please Wang Chuan send my greetings to the ancestors of the Xu family."

Xu Chun cupped his hands, Yang Zhifu didn't stay any longer, and left soon.

Wan Yi was already staying in this inn, so he bowed his hands and went back to rest.He planned to have more contacts with the Xu family in the future.

Xu Chun stared at the open space in front of the door with a heavy expression, and was silent for a while.

After a while, Huai'an came over to report: "Miss Fang has woken up!"

Xu Chun hurriedly followed Huai'an.

There was still a strong smell of blood in the room, Fang Yuanzhi's face was snow-white, and her big watery eyes were half-opened and half-closed at this moment, showing that she was extremely listless.

Fang Li was sitting in front of the bed with a sad face, comforting in a low voice: "It's not a bad thing if the child is gone. It's destined, and you can't force it. You take good care of your body. Taking good care of your body is the most important thing."

Fang Yuanzhi remained expressionless and did not speak.After a long time, I finally spit out a few words: "Something..."

Fang Li was taken aback for a moment, but soon understood, and asked someone to fetch a burden and an iron spear.

There were only a few pieces of underwear in the bag, some for men and some for babies.Fang Yuanzhi took out his clothes, hugged them in his arms, stroked them lightly, turned sideways, and ignored them.

Xu Chun has been watching quietly.

Suddenly, he knelt down on both knees, and Fang Li said: "Master Fang, Yuan Zhi's ordeal was really caused by Xu Chun! Xu Chun is very regretful. I just ask my lord to give me a chance to redeem my sins! Please, my lord." Betroth Yuanzhi to Xu Chun as his wife!"
