Han Jinglian sat up straight, waiting to see how he would deal with the situation. None of the people in the hall dared to make a sound. Dan Rong Rui and a man in a grey shirt were sitting in the upper seats, looking at the javelin thugs who were tied up and kneeling on the ground with grave expressions on their faces. His name was Xiang Rong, and he had just turned eighteen.

Laifu asked, "Let me ask you, do you know that the Mighty Escort Office is a friend?"

Xiang Rong tremblingly nodded.

"Knowing means knowing. If you don't know, then you don't know. What does nodding matter? "

Han Jinglian saw that although Laifu was gentle and refined, at this moment, he was angry because he had a certain prestige, making others not dare to look directly at him.

"I know, I know."

"Louder for Miss Han to hear!"

"I know!"

"Although we are robbers, we have our own rules. Do you know what the darts from the Mighty Escort Office are? " Although his voice wasn't loud, it was clearly heard by everyone present.

"I don't know!"

"It is the Qinglong Cotton Shop that is being shipped to the cotton goods outside the pass. How will the people outside the pass survive the winter if you rob them of this dart? Furthermore, the Mighty Escort Office is a friend. As a person, one must be honest and trustworthy. Your actions are to make enemies out of the forest, right? "

"This little one doesn't dare, this little one doesn't dare." Lai Fu spoke sternly. Xiang Rong was so scared that he was about to collapse.

"You don't dare? I dare you to! I didn't realize that not only did you rob money, you even dared to rob women! I will definitely punish you today! " Laifu purposely said it seriously, hoping that the leader would help him out and help him out. He knew very well that as a man, Dan Rong's heart was probably filled with misfortune.

"Please!" The one who had been silent the entire time finally spoke.

Xiang Rong's tongue was tied when he saw the sinister blade coming at him. He rushed forward to hug Han Jinglian's leg and cried, "Miss Han, please forgive this lowly one. Miss Han, Miss Han …" He was not that old to begin with. He was just a kid, yet now he was crying like he was in the darkest of times. Everyone present could not help but feel sympathy for him.

Han Jinglian laughed coldly, "I'll forgive you. Who'll forgive my escort? "The escort's skills are not as good as someone's, so they have nothing to say. But that pair of hands are also bad. Where are you going to get justice for that evil hand of yours?" It was a rule to only attack the escort, not the groom. Even if it was a robber, there would always be a rule.

Dan Rong walked down and kicked him aside, "You've broken the rules of my Green Forest Bank. It seems like I can't tolerate you anymore. You kill yourself."

One of the leaders whispered, "Chief, why don't we just kick this kid out of the Three Blades and Six Hole?"

When Han Jinglian heard this, his eyes widened: "I knew you guys would protect our weakness!"

"Bastard!" Do you want to go down the mountain and ask him to rob again? " Dan Rong glared at him angrily, but his underlings were so scared that they didn't dare to make a sound. The leader of his family might be easy to get along with in private, but when it came to principles, he was a little stubborn. Even Lai Fu's words would not be of any use, much less himself.

Xiang Rong was already crying as he kowtowed non-stop. Blood dripped from his forehead, and his voice was clearly transmitted to everyone's ears. Dan Rong's face was expressionless as he said angrily: "Look at you with that soft and weak appearance of yours, someone!" Pull it out and cut it! "

As soon as his words fell, someone immediately escorted Rongsheng away. Han Jingjing saw that it was true and felt pity for Xiang Rong. He was only 17 or 18 years old, so it was a pity for him to lose his life like this.

He had only seen him act smartly that day, but he had unwittingly promoted him to a small leader due to his young age and good sense. Who knew that he would end up losing his life because of this? He called Laifu and whispered, "Who else is in his family?"

"I heard that there's only one brother."

"Send the money over tomorrow. If he has any requests, do your best to satisfy them." After giving Laifu his instructions, he turned to Han Jingjing and asked, "Is Miss Han satisfied?"

Han Jinglian saw his righteousness and thought that maybe he had wronged him, but she said stubbornly: "Alliance Master, you can settle it as you please. The five lives of the mighty escort team are equal to your life as a thief, what else is there to be satisfied with!? Escort Hu had just had a son last month, so he worked hard to earn more money for his family. "There's also Ling, who has been honest and proper for so many years, only daring to escort a car because he's timid, and now —" As she spoke, her eyes reddened, but she tried her best not to cry. At this point, she had a rough understanding of the situation. Dan Rong was a fair man, so perhaps his discipline wasn't strict. She only said those words to satisfy her craving, but her heart still couldn't get by. But who knew that after hearing this, he muttered to himself for a while before sighing and saying, "Miss Han is right." I am not strict with discipline, and I have condoned my subordinate's wanton actions, harmed others, and also harmed his life. I am very uneasy in my heart, and indeed, my sin is unforgivable. " As he spoke, he looked at Chu Yu and said, "Give me the sabre." His rule had been completely broken by the person he was promoting. He also felt that he had harmed Xiang Rong's life. He should give an explanation to the mighty escort company and Xiang Rong. At least, he had a peace of mind.

Laifu was greatly alarmed. This was outside of his expectations. He had thought that the worst outcome would be killing Xiang Rong, but he didn't expect Han Jinglian to still be unwilling to let it go. He thought to himself: This manor lord is too honest, he whispered: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you can't."

Han Jinglian was surprised. He didn't want him to do anything! However, she did not know what Lai Fu was talking about. She had grown up in the escort company and had never met anyone who was too straightforward. She had always harbored ill intentions towards scholars, and seeing that he was not being righteous, she felt disgusted and said coldly, "Why do you have to put on airs, it's disgusting."

Dan Rong Rui pushed Laifu away and said: "I'm going to use three blades and six holes to plead for an explanation on behalf of the wronged." With that, he grabbed the knife and stabbed it into his thigh.

Seeing that he actually stabbed her in the face and pulled out the blade, blood gradually splashed onto her face, causing her to shout out in fright. She felt that it was very embarrassing to lose her composure, but more importantly, she didn't want anything to happen to this person. She covered her mouth and didn't dare to look. She only glanced out of the corner of her eyes. When she saw that he was about to stab her again, she immediately stopped him. She stammered and mumbled to herself, "Forget it, just take it as me forgiving you."

Laifu's heart relaxed. Just as he was about to stop her, he quickly stood up again in fright after seeing the look in her eyes. He quickly schemed against her and intentionally did the opposite, saying leisurely: "How can I do that, Miss Han hasn't even returned justice, how can I face the girl? Even if the manor lord was crippled, it would still be natural for her to do so.

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd in the crowd gritted their teeth in hatred, unable to make out the hidden meaning behind his words. In their hearts, they thought that the ancestors of the eight generations of Zhu Clan had scolded them enough. Some of them understood what was going on and laughed to themselves. They all turned their eyes towards Han Jingjing, as if they were sincerely looking at their own ancestors. How could Dan Rong not understand the idea of Lai Fu? After finishing his sentence, he continued, "This humble one is not someone who goes back on his words. I will keep my word."

Han Jinglian thought to himself, if this continues, what should he do if he's crippled? Aiya, this person is also a stubborn person, isn't he just putting on an act? It was such a pity to waste such a good martial arts, didn't he think he was a sinner? Although she had never seen him make a move before, in her heart, she saw him as an expert. If she let go of this person, she would carry out her father's teachings, and even if she were to know, she would forgive herself. She composed herself and said, "Then, since you're asking for an explanation, let me do it."

After thinking for a moment, he handed the knife to her, "Alright then."

Han Jinglian didn't dare to look. He clenched his teeth and then quickly threw away the knife: "Okay, today is the day the two are settled."

When Dan Rong saw her acting this way, he froze before saying with a smile, "Thank you for your leniency, Miss." Why don't you stay here for the time being and send someone to take you home after the funeral of the deceased? "

Han Jingjing nodded his head, "Just wait and see." He thought to himself, this guy is really tenacious. Would he cry for his mother if he did? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

The two of them would occasionally meet and talk for a bit, but Han Jingjing always hung his head down very low, causing Dan Rong to not know if she was still hating him, or if she was unwilling to see him. In any case, no matter what happened, he was still very frustrated, so he could only avoid her as much as possible. He wanted to ask, but he couldn't. He could only stare blankly at the blue sky, looking at the clouds in the sky. Sometimes he would turn into a rabbit, sometimes he would turn into a kitten.

On the day of his burial, Han Jingjing watched as the escort and the coffin in his hands slowly sunk into the ground. He felt a wave of sadness in his heart. His eyes were so wet that they were about to cry.

Dan Rong Yun wanted to pat her shoulder to comfort her, but stopped midway. He remembered that she hated him so much, so he didn't want to anger her again.

Han Jinglian nodded his head, "Manor Lord, thank you for saving them from being wandering ghosts. Jinglian, thank you." With that, she bowed to him.

Dan Rong hurriedly helped her up, but no matter what he wanted to say, he wasn't able to say anything.

Han Jinglian said again: "This matter is over. It's time for Jinglian to take his leave." As soon as the words left his mouth, he wanted to move.

When Dan Rong saw her limping, he asked with concern, "Miss Han, are you able to ride a horse?"

Han Jingjing thought to himself. That's right, if he rode back home like this again, wouldn't it hurt? He felt a bit troubled.

"Why don't we not go yet? Let's wait for our legs to heal before we do anything else." Dan Rong Ning was a little anxious in his heart, afraid that she would misunderstand, so he asked carefully.

"But — I'm afraid the family is worried, and these clothes have delayed us for too long. If we don't transport them out now, I'm afraid —"

"What's the matter? I'll send the goods out with your escort." Can you let Laifu fix a letter and send it to the escort company? "

Laifu thought that this was how I worked, so he could only say respectfully, "Laifu obeys."

Han Jingjing nodded his head, "T-Then I'll be troubling Manor Lord."

Dan Rong smiled and said: "I won't disturb you, I won't disturb you."

Lucky thought, you're obviously bothering me!
