Chapter 1269 My brother is really amazing
"Who exactly are you?"
The village chief was forced to kneel on the ground by the guards, and he struggled to look up at Fei He.
But all they could see was the hem of Fei He's clothes; they couldn't even catch a glimpse of his icy face.
“Take the person to the county seat. If the county government doesn’t take responsibility, take the county magistrate and the county assistant magistrate with them.”
Hearing this, the village chief truly panicked and hurriedly began to explain.
"My lord, we are not forcing this marriage. It was arranged a year ago. Please spare us, my lord! I am the village chief, and I would never dare to deceive you."
Fei He didn't have much time to listen to these people's nonsense; he was in a hurry to go back and report to His Majesty.
In Qiyang, everyone from the governor down to the village head had to be replaced.
If even one person is missed, Qiyang can forget about being fully recovered.
The guards escorted these people away, ignoring those with broken arms and those with broken legs, as long as they didn't have both legs broken, they were allowed to hop away.
How long they can jump is their business; if they can't jump, then they can expect to have their legs broken and be dragged over.
Whether they survive there or not depends on their own fate.
Clearly, this wasn't the first time these bodyguards had done something like this; most of them had lost an arm.
Only a few were truly resilient and were blinded by the promise of half a pork slice.
I hit him a little too hard and broke his leg. He can only hop along at the back of the group.
No matter how much pain you feel, as long as you have a breath left, you must not stop.
If you fall behind, you'll be beaten. If you manage to get to the county town, as long as you don't commit any other crimes, the final sentence will only be a few years in prison.
If you can't persevere, the only outcome is dying halfway through.
The secret guards from Qingyu Pavilion are no pushovers.
They were all sent here to garrison two years ago, and they never expected that there were so many hidden talents in the seemingly ordinary Qiyang City.
They set up one scheme after another, completely deceiving them.
If it weren't for His Majesty's kindness in sparing their lives, they would be worse off than these people at this point.
They've probably already gone to report to the King of Hell.
Who knows, they might end up as henchmen for the King of Hell, never having the chance to be reborn in their next life.
They were even less friendly to these people.
If it weren't for Commander Fei's presence, he would have already smashed the handle of his broadsword and longsword down there.
Eliminating harm for the people is what officers and soldiers should do; they are just low-level secret guards.
Jiang Yubai forced himself to stay awake as he watched the people dressed in wedding attire being led away by the men in black who were with that official.
On the way here, there were only eight of them in their group, including them.
As a result, just as they were about to take action, more than a dozen people came down from that hillside.
They all seem to be hidden masters.
Just as Jiang Yubai had time to think of that, he felt someone gently poke the wound on his back.
Jiang Yubai turned around and saw his little sister's frightened face, and a wave of regret washed over him.
Her younger sister was not yet fifteen, just past the age of marriage. If he hadn't come back so late, her younger sister wouldn't have had to suffer like this.
"Don't be afraid, these are all your brother's friends. Your brother has made some important connections outside, and he's come back this time to take you and Mother to live a better life."
Jiang Yubai's chapped lips tugged into an unpleasant smile. Not only the girl sitting in the bridal sedan chair, but even Liang Chongyue stared intently at the ugly smile on the panel.
In her memory, when she looked back on her scumbag father's life, she had seen such a smile, but not often, and it was always before the most important person in her scumbag father's life left.
Later, the scumbag father laughed heartily and schemed shrewdly, but he never laughed like that again.
He smiled through his desolation and vulnerability, yet remained steadfast.
Both she and her scumbag father had people they wanted to protect for life, and they did the same thing back then.
She thought she had reached the point where she would no longer suffer and ponder her scumbag father's incomprehension and fickleness, but when she saw this face, she would still be momentarily lost in thought.
Her father—
Liang Chongyue slowly leaned back in her chair and exhaled a breath of stale air.
The video on the panel continued to play, but Liang Chongyue had lost all interest in watching it.
She left the house and went to her mother's courtyard.
Before her mother woke up, she sat in her mother's courtyard drinking tea and listening to the wind rustling the leaves.
The system chased after the host and stayed by the host's side. Seeing that the host was in a bad mood, it lay down at the host's feet and let its mind wander.
Looking at its silly appearance, Liang Chongyue felt inexplicably relieved.
He reached out and gave the system's head a hard pat, making the hair on the system's head all messy.
From the back, it looks like a hedgehog.
The system has gotten used to its host's behavior. As long as the host is in a good mood, it doesn't care if the host ruffles all the fur on its body.
"I am somewhat worried." It's enough for one person to love me; I insist on having the whole world love me.
Human desires are insatiable.
The system didn't understand: "Huh? What did you say, host?"
Liang Chongyue waved his hand, did not respond to the system, opened his own panel, and began to listen to the audiobook with his eyes closed.
The system, seeing its host's relaxed demeanor, seemed to have come out.
They weren't idle either; they opened the control panel and started finding ways to have fun at home.
It ended just as we were getting to the crucial moment, which inevitably makes you want to keep watching.
The system panel reopened, and on the panel, Jiang Yubai, in order to amuse his sister, kicked the matchmaker who was lying at his feet pretending to be dead, sending her rolling three times on the ground before stopping.
Even so, the matchmaker, covered in filth, refused to wake up.
Fei He's bodyguards were not to be underestimated.
One person came up and tied the matchmaker's hands to a villager.
"Old hag, if you don't get up, you're going to wear me down! You old geezer, if you don't get up, I'll beat you to death!"
No matter how much the villagers cursed, until they all disappeared from Jiang Yubai's sight, the old woman pretending to be asleep did not get up from the ground.
There were also many pebbles in the muddy ground along the way.
Even the toughest people in the countryside would be exhausted from dragging themselves across this kind of terrain, if not die.
"Brother, I'm scared."
The girl in the bridal sedan chair cautiously peeked out, but after only one glance at Fei He, she quickly withdrew her head.
Her tear-streaked face scrunched up as she shrank behind Jiang Yubai.
"Xiang'er, don't be afraid. This is your brother's friend. He won't hurt you."
Jiang Yubai himself wasn't confident when he said this, and his voice was a little weak. He turned his head to look at Fei He tentatively, and seeing that Fei He didn't do anything else, he then mustered up the courage to comfort his sister.
"Really? Brother, you..." Jiang Yuxiang wanted to say that her brother was the least likely to lie, but after seeing the wound on his head that looked like he had been hit and his hand that was bleeding, she realized that he was lying.
Before any rebuttal, tears of heartache welled up.
Struggling to hold back the tears welling up in her eyes, Jiang Yuxiang finally managed to say, "Brother is amazing."
