C428 The Xu Family Proposed Marriage
When Zhu Yan arrived in front of the meeting hall, the courtyard was already filled with dozens of brawny men with swords and sabers in their hands. Zhu Yan couldn't care too much about that. He pushed open the door and saw that all the Zhen family members were inside. There were two more people inside. One of them was a middle-aged man with a spear in his hand, and the other was a young man with a sword in his hand. There was a look of disdain in his eyes from time to time.
Everyone was stunned by Zhu Yan's arrival, and that young man was even more surprised as he looked at Zhen Man.
Zhen Wuren was after all a man who had seen the world. He smiled and said. "You little brat, why did you barge into my Meeting Room?"
At this moment, Zhu Yan was somewhat regretful of his recklessness. Because when he barged into the meeting hall, he actually didn't know what to say. He stood alone in the middle of the hall. His mind was blank. Suddenly, someone behind him said, "We are also here to propose marriage. " The one who spoke was Duan Tianya.
I nodded thoughtfully, then said, "Zhu Yan did come to the Prefecture yesterday to propose a marriage, but today, there is another Young Master Xu. This makes it very difficult for me!"
Who knew that the young man with the sword immediately said angrily, "Where did this country bumpkin come from? How dare he show off in Luoyang?" With a slightly threatening tone, he said, "I think you must be tired of living. "
Zhu Yan immediately became furious and said angrily, "You are a rat who uses your power to bully others. If you have the ability, come and compete with me outside. "
"Sure!" The young man agreed very quickly. He turned around and walked into the courtyard with the middle-aged man who was holding the long spear.
Duan Tianya saw it clearly from behind. The middle-aged man with the long spear was walking steadily and his breathing was uniform. He should be an expert. Although this young man was a bit impatient, his foundation was not bad.
The two of them came to the courtyard. After getting into position, the people from Zhen Mansion who came to watch the battle were all present. Those strong men with swords and sabers were standing at the periphery, eyeing him covetously, so that they could help him out at any time.
The young man said with disdain, "I don't want to fight with an unknown person. Tell me your name so that this young master's sword will know whose blood it is that it licks. "
Zhu Yan said with a serious expression, "Flaming Golden Child, Zhu Yan. "
When he heard this name, the expression of the middle-aged man who wielded the spear changed dramatically. He hurriedly went forward and whispered a few words into the young man's ear. The young man also looked at the middle-aged man in surprise. After a while, he pretended to be calm and said: "Today we came to the manor to propose marriage. If you have the guts to touch a knife or spear, it will hurt you greatly. Tomorrow, come to my Xu Mansion and we will have a showdown. "
Zhu Yan glanced at Duan Tianya, who only nodded his head slightly. Zhu Yan responded. "Alright! It's a deal!"
The young man left with his men. At this moment, I looked at Zhu Yan with an embarrassed expression and said, "Are you really going to Zhen Prefecture?"
Zhu Yan smiled and said, "Is that true?"
I said, "Do you know where the Xu Residence is?"
Zhu Yan said, "Even if it's a dragon's pond or a tiger's den, I still want to go and explore it. "
I nodded my head in satisfaction, but she continued, "You and your friends should leave Luoyang as soon as possible. "
Zhu Yan was puzzled, "Why?"
I said, "The Xu Family is a famous bully in the Luoyang. They have many experts who are good at using spears and clubs. If you go to the Xu Family, won't you be like a lamb in a tiger's den? Rather than dying there, why don't you run for your life first? "
Zhu Yan said with a smile, "I can give up my life, but Miss Zhen is begging me. She doesn't want to marry into the Xu Family. "
I said, "You can completely stay out of this matter. "
Zhu Yan said, "I just can't stand the Xu Family bullying others with their power. "
I said, "I don't have a good impression of the Xu Family either. We are just ordinary businessmen and aren't good at fighting and killing. Besides, you and the Zhen Family are just strangers. There's no need for this. "
Zhu Yan asked, "Do you really hope that Miss Zhen will marry into the Xu Family?"
I smiled bitterly. "Of course not. "
Zhu Yan said, "That's enough. I have a life and death wish when I go to the Xu Family. I will not implicate the Zhen Family in the slightest. "
Before she could finish speaking, Duan Tianya smiled and said, "If he wants to die, then let him go!"
I lightly sighed and said, "Since you have already said so as a friend, I can only wait for the good news. "
The sky was already dark, but it was hard for him to fall asleep. Zhu Yan came to the roof of Zhen Prefecture by himself and looked at the bright moon in the night sky. He couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. He didn't know why he wanted to get involved in this mess. He clearly didn't have a good impression of this place, but he still wanted to act righteously.
In fact, he could also tell that the middle-aged man with the spear wasn't an ordinary person. He had also heard about the Xu Family in Luoyang. The Xu Family that came today was just a playboy. His two brothers did have some ability, the Single File Spear Xu Bingyuan. The spear was like a dragon, and the most powerful one was the Seven Spirit Sword Xu Bingran. His sword technique was superb, and was usually deep and simple. He was a powerful character.
As he thought about it, he suddenly felt that. . . He subconsciously pulled out his sword, scaring the person behind him into hurriedly saying, "It's me!"
Zhu Yan took a closer look and found that it was Zhen Rong'er. Although her martial arts were average, she had the ability to jump over walls.
Zhu Yan kept his sword and said, "What are you doing here?"
Zhen Rong'er hesitated for a moment and said, "I want you to leave Luoyang. "
Zhu Yan was puzzled. "Why?"
Zhen Rong'er said with slight sadness. "I don't want you to die in Luoyang. "
Zhu Yan couldn't help but smile when he heard that. "Don't worry. I have already said that I won't rely on your Zhen Family even if I die. "
Zhen Rong'er hurriedly shook her head and said. "You've misunderstood me. What I mean is that you shouldn't have gone to the Xu Estate. "
Zhu Yan said, "Because that place is a dragon's pond and tiger's den?"
Zhen Rong'er did not deny it. She said faintly: "The Xu family's martial arts are not weak to begin with. If you go alone, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape unscathed. "
Zhu Yan smiled and said, "We are two people. "
Zhen Rong'er looked worried and said, "Even if twenty people go, it will be hard for them to come back. "
Zhu Yan said, "But I have already promised Zhu Shang that I will go to Xu Prefecture tomorrow. "
Zhen Rong'er said, "You will leave tonight. "
Zhu Yan smiled and said, "Then wouldn't I be eating my words?"
Zhen Rong'er said, "Eating Yan is better than losing your life. "
Zhu Yan said, "This is two different things. "
Zhen Rong'er said, "You must go?"
Zhu Yan said firmly, "You must go!"
The night wind suddenly blew, and both of them were speechless. Although the current wind was not cold, it still made them unconsciously shiver. Zhen Rong'er's clothes were a little thin, and when the night wind blew, she subconsciously hugged her shoulders.
Zhu Yan took off his long robe and draped it over her body. At this moment, their eyes met, but their faces were also flushed red.
The two of them did not know what to say, and just sat on the roof like that. They did not say a word until the sky turned bright. Only then did they go back to rest.
