Quick Travel: Save the poor little villain

Unexpectedly, the way back home was always full of small troubles.

Jinchen had just gone to the clothing store. He had held Yajiu a lot during this period, so even if he hadn't measured him carefully, he had a rough idea of ​​Yajiu's body size.

Because it was a shop specially opened for noblemen and ladies, the clothes and fabrics inside were all of the best quality. Seeing that it was the young master of the young master's family who came in person, the shopkeeper was even more eager to choose the best ones.

"Come and try them on. I've picked out a few outfits for you." Jinchen came back in with Yajiu in his arms and asked him to try on the clothes.

Yajiu was flattered, but felt that it was against the rules. "Master, I don't need to buy these."

The clothes he has now are already the best.

Jinchen disagreed.

"You are my personal bodyguard. If you don't dress nicely, others will say that I am being harsh on you."

What he said made a lot of sense, and Yajiu felt the seriousness of the matter as soon as he heard it. His master was so good, he must not let others look down on him.

So she went in obediently to try on the clothes and did not notice the indescribable look on the shopkeeper's face.

He had never seen any young master come specially to buy clothes for his bodyguard.

The young master has raised someone, and he is becoming more and more skilled in sweet talk and deceiving people.

When Yajiu came out with changed clothes, wearing a cloud-like blue robe, Jinchen looked at him happily, "You should wear this from now on, and throw away those black clothes."

Since the master likes it, Yajiu naturally has no objection.

They were finally preparing to return home, and the streets began to become lively. Yajiu followed Jinchen closely to prevent any dangerous situations.

“Eh… sorry!”

Someone accidentally bumped into Yajiu while passing by. After he stood firm, he hurriedly apologized, but was frightened by Yajiu's sharp eyes and ran away in panic.

Yajiu then turned around and saw his master being entangled by a girl who was selling herself to bury her father.

"Master...Master, please be kind and take me back as your maid! Let my poor father rest in peace."

The girl was dressed in mourning clothes. Although she had no makeup on, she looked pretty and lovely. Her tears in her eyes made her look pitiful.

Jinchen was startled by her and cried out.

"Let go!"

What are you doing? How can you force a sale like this?

Yajiu hurriedly protected Jinchen behind him, and if it wasn’t inconvenient, he would have kicked him away.

"Selling yourself to bury your father must be a matter of mutual consent."

His voice was cold, "My master doesn't have such intentions, the young lady is being too entangled."

"Yes."

Jinchen nodded vigorously behind him and patted the dirty place, acting like a fragile nobleman.

The girl just cried, crying sadly and sorrowfully, "I...I have no other choice. My father has passed away three days ago, but my family can't even get enough money to buy a coffin."

Jinchen looked at the corpse covered with white cloth and didn't see anything wrong. He took out a few silver ingots from his waist and threw them over.

"Go back and bury him quickly, and don't pounce on anyone you see on the street."

How scary!

"Also, just consider this as my... my kindness. Don't bother me after I'm buried."

"Thank you sir, thank you sir!"

Jinchen grabbed Yajiu's hand and left.

As he walked, he kept muttering, "Today is really a bad day. Next time you go out, you should check the almanac before going out."

"Yes, master."

Yajiu nodded seriously.

-

After returning home, Jinchen and Yajiu were indeed called into the study in the main courtyard by Jin Xuanqi.

"Father."

Jinchen knelt down to salute, and then sat down on the soft chair impatiently, "Did the Emperor's uncle reply to the letter?"

"Yes, it is an imperial decree."

Jin Xuanqi never cared about Jin Chen's etiquette. He sighed and showed the imperial edict to Jin Chen, "Your uncle has punished the officials in the capital on the list, and four others have fled to Yangzhou."

"According to our investigation, they have already entered Huainan County. I will set out in person tomorrow to arrest them."

Jin Chen finished reading it and quickly put away the imperial edict. "The villains are dangerous. Father, please bring more people with you."

"Since you care about your father so much, why not let Yajiu, who is the most skilled one, go with you?" Jin Xuanqi joked.

"That won't work."

Jin Chen said seriously, "Father, you are not a child anymore, how can you snatch someone from me?"

Jin Xuanqi: "..."

"Okay, I asked you to come here today because I want to tell you that Yangzhou is definitely not peaceful recently. You should be more careful when you travel."

Jin Xuanqi said, his tone was full of emotion, as if he was apologetic, "If Chen'er was just an ordinary child, there would be no need to be so cautious."

Jinchen didn't want to get sentimental with this handsome old man, so he said bluntly: "If I were just an ordinary family, I would definitely go bankrupt."

Without a prince father and an imperial merchant mother, I wouldn’t be able to withstand his bullying!

Jin Xuanqi fell silent again. This was indeed the truth.

What a wonderful and warm atmosphere, and then it was gone in an instant.

"I won't talk nonsense with you. Go back to your yard and play."

Jin Xuanqi didn't have many demands on Jin Chen. As long as everything went smoothly and he could inherit his fiefdom in the future.

Therefore, no matter for the stability that Yue'er wanted, or to protect his child who was not stupid, no one on this list could survive.

In this regard, he thought the same as his royal brother.

"Yajiu, you must protect the prince well during the time when I am away."

"Yes, I will obey, little one."

-

At the same time, Xu Mansion.

"Yu'er, what did you say?"

Xu Qiongyin suspected that she had heard it wrong. She paused her hands on the abacus and looked up from the table.

"You want to marry Zhou Zhihong again?"

Xu Huaiyu nodded, "Yes."

Seeing that the mother and daughter were about to quarrel, Fu Xiuming quickly put down the teacup, walked forward, pressed his wife's shoulder, and persuaded her in a gentle voice.

"Don't get angry first, listen to what Yu'er thinks. He has always had his own ideas."

Xu Qiongyin took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'd like to see what he can say."

Xu Huaiyu had already prepared a story that was even more exciting than the one in the vernacular novels.

Moreover, this story has been polished by my cousin. My cousin said that anything produced by Jinchen must be a masterpiece.

He pinched his thigh and began to tell the story with tears in his eyes.

"This is what happened... About three months ago, I had a dream in the middle of the night that Brother Zhihong suddenly disappeared and was possessed by a monster."

"After waking up, I thought it was just a nightmare, but I never thought that my cousin had the same dream. From that day on, Brother Zhihong began to behave strangely. He used to be the most dignified and polite person, but now he does some things that are not worthy of being on the stage, and even speaks rudely to me."

"My cousin and I have tried it out, and it turns out...it turns out that Zhou Zhihong is actually a monster. He has resurrected and occupied Brother Zhihong's body, and has done things that ruin his reputation!"

Xu Huaiyu sobbed, "Mother, Father, can you understand how wronged I am?"

Xu Qiongyin: “…”

She turned to her husband and asked, "Can you?"

Fu Xiuming: “…No.”

This is too ridiculous.
