The reborn prince can't be pushed down

Chapter 242
Lu Ji practiced martial arts with Uncle Yue during this period of time. Although he was not as good at internal and external training as Jiang Nian and Ning Yuezhao, his skills were much more agile and flexible.

Although the strong wind was strong, it was not from Lian Jiazi's hand, so Lu Ji avoided the blow without much effort.

As Lu Ji dodged, the wooden stick hit the roof of the carriage with a "bang", and the lantern hanging from a corner of the carriage shook.

Under the dim yellow light, the person who came was a stranger, and only the ferocious look in his eyes could be vaguely seen.

The assailant failed in one blow, so he attacked Lu Ji's face again with a wooden stick. Lu Ji flew up and kicked the assailant's wrist.

"Who are you? What are you going to do!"

Lu Ji shouted sharply, hoping to attract the attention of people outside the alley.

Under the pain, the murderer's stick fell out of his hand, and he held his wrist, a little surprised how this frail-looking young man had such great strength.

"Hide your head and show your tail, do you know who I am?"

While Lu Ji shouted loudly, while his men were unambiguous, an uppercut with his right hand had already hit the murderer.

The murderer didn't answer, he jumped back, avoiding the land base's attack, trying to pick up the stick on the ground again.

How could Lu Ji let him do what he wished, and kicked the murderer who was leaning over, he kicked the murderer in the front door, and fell back a few feet.

Seeing that it was difficult for Lu Ji to be defeated by one person, the murderer put his hand in his mouth and blew a whistle.

After the screaming whistle, two fierce men with sticks and weapons appeared.

Seeing helpers coming, the person who attacked the land base first also jumped up from the ground and punched the land base.

At the moment when Lu Ji was dodging, the sticks in the hands of the other two murderers greeted Lu Ji from behind unceremoniously.

Feeling the two strong winds behind him, Lu Ji obviously couldn't dodge the three attacks at the same time, so he simply rushed forward and bumped into the fist that was being swung.

That fist hit the corner of Lu Ji's mouth heavily. He didn't care to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth. He took advantage of the situation to lower his body, grabbed the fist of the murderer with both hands, and threw him behind him. Two saps came over.

After a scream, one person fell down, and the other two continued to fight towards Lu Ji unwillingly.

Lu Ji's expression froze, he pushed aside an incoming wooden stick, and kicked the other person away with a sideways kick.

All of this happened in a very short period of time, Lu Ji's moves were flowing like clouds and flowing water, these thieves who could only be brave and ruthless were no match for him at all.

"Let's go!" Seeing that the situation was not right, the two stopped immediately, picked up their injured companion and fled out of the alley.

Lu Ji's first reaction was to chase after him, but after running a few steps, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly retreated to the side of the carriage.

Suddenly, a male voice with a chuckle said: "Lord Lu, don't fall for the enemy's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, and send Master Qing back home first!"

After the words fell, several figures flew towards the direction where the thief left.

The voice was somewhat familiar, but Lu Ji couldn't think of where he had heard it before.

He returned to the side of the carriage with a tense expression, and carefully opened the curtain, only to see Qingchi huddled in the carriage sleeping soundly, he was relieved immediately.

The wheel of the carriage was broken, so Lu Ji could only unhook the harness, carried Qingchi out of the carriage, put her on the horse's back first, then got on the horse himself, held her securely in front of his chest, and then rode the horse to Yan's mansion and go.

After a lot of tossing just now, it's time for the curfew.

Before arriving at Yan's mansion, Lu Ji met a guard who was watching the night.

"My lord?" The guards were a little surprised why their lord was still riding a horse in the street at this hour, and still brought an unconscious girl with him.It just so happened that they all knew that girl, the daughter of the Imperial Tutor who was famous all over the capital, and the favorite minister of the Empress.

Lu Ji glanced at the guard with a strange look, and said coldly: "I sent Miss Yan back to the house. I was attacked in Yinping Lane just now. She looks like a local ruffian. Hurry up and investigate!"

When the guards heard this, they quickly put away their daydreams and ran towards Yinping Lane.

Lu Ji kicked the horse's belly hard, and hurried towards Yan's mansion.

Because Lu Ji sent someone to send a message to the Yan family before, Yan Zhenglang knew that his daughter was with Lu Ji, so he was not too worried, but seeing that it was time for the curfew and no one came back, he wanted to take a look at the door, not thinking about it just now. When he opened the door, he saw Lu Ji reining in his horse in front of the gate of Yan Mansion, and Qing Chi who was sitting in front of him looked ignorant.Before people approached, they could already smell a strong smell of alcohol.

"Miss!" Seeing that something was wrong, the butler hurriedly called two maids over.

Lu Ji got off the horse, carried Qingchi down and handed it to the maid.Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Yan Zhenglang looked at him closely.

"How is this going?"

Lu Ji said apologetically: "Teacher, this junior failed to persuade Miss Yan and let her get so drunk, damn it!"

Yan Zhenglang shook his head, and said to the housekeeper, "Please come into the mansion, Mr. Lu, and get some medicinal oil!"

Lu Ji touched the corner of his mouth, just now he didn't care about his impatience, and now his face must be a bit embarrassed.

He cupped his hands towards Yan Zhenglang, "Thank you, Grand Tutor, I just encountered some problems when I sent Miss Yan back. Now that she has been delivered safely, I have to go back to Shuntian Mansion to find out who did what happened just now. I will take my leave first." , come back to plead guilty to the Taifu some other day!"

Seeing that he was so serious, Yan Zhenglang didn't say anything more, and just told him to be careful.

After saying goodbye, Lu Ji quickly rode back to Yinping Lane, but met two servants from Shuntian Mansion at the entrance of the alley.

"My lord, just now some guards of the forbidden army escorted three people to the Yamen, claiming that they were the murderers who attacked you and Lord Qing. The subordinates guessed that the Lord would rush here as soon as possible, so they waited here specially."

Lu Ji nodded, "I will go back to the government office to interrogate the prisoner first, and you will guard the scene here tonight."

"Yes, my lord!"

At this moment in Shuntian Mansion Yamen, a high-spirited young general of the forbidden army was holding his sword, walking around and looking at the three kneeling prisoners, full of high spirits.

"Have the three of you eaten the guts of a bear heart and a leopard? Don't look at who it is, Shuntian Fu Yin dares to fight!"

After speaking, he unceremoniously kicked one of them, and that person immediately let out a miserable cry.

Lu Ji walked into the lobby, took a look around, and recognized that these three people were the ones who attacked him just now.

He also had an impression of this young general, it was Wu Zhiyu, the young son of Wu Anbo, who was the most diligent young general in the Forbidden Army in the previous competition with Jiang Nian.

"Lord Lu!" Seeing Lu Ji coming, Wu Zhiyu bowed his hands and saluted him.

"Little General Wu." Lu Ji glanced at the guards of the forbidden army, clasped his fists in return, "Thank you for your help, I will treat you to a drink some other day!"

"Master Lu is a straightforward person. I was ordered by the emperor to take care of Master Gu Qing's safety. But I saw Master Lu's agility just now. I will spare no effort to make you a hero and save the beauty. I hope you will not be offended!" Wu Zhiyu giggled road.

Lu Ji couldn't help laughing, he had long expected that these imperial guards were ordered by two palace guards to secretly protect Qingchi, and he also wondered why they didn't act earlier, it turned out to be because of this reason.

Could it be that his thoughts on Qingchi are known to everyone?But why can't she see it?Thinking of this, Lu Ji was slightly depressed.

In fact, Wu Zhiyu didn't have such complicated thoughts, but simply followed all the way from the palace, and felt that the two were quite right, so she wanted to add fuel to the flames.

"Now that the man has been captured by Mr. Lu, I will return to the palace and return to life."

Seeing that there was nothing to do with them, Wu Zhiyu planned to take a few brothers back to the palace.

"Wait!"

Lu Ji suddenly stopped them, "I still need some help, please wait a moment."

Although Wu Zhiyu was puzzled, he still stayed and stood aside to watch.

Lu Ji didn't get promoted, so he walked up to those people in casual clothes, and asked coldly, "Say, who ordered you to attack me?"

The person who was kicked by Wu Zhiyu just now was the leader of these three people, he shrank his neck, "No one, it's just that my brothers are bored and beat people to vent their anger."

The look of a complete rogue, a goddamn asshole.

The Fucheng said: "My lord, these people have been wandering around the west of the city, and they often took money from the money and gambling houses, picking quarrels and harassing them to demand accounts! It's just that the victims felt that they owed money and were wronged, and no one dared to report to the officials."

Lu Ji waved his hand, "Isn't it stubborn? Then fight until the trick!"

Lu Ji seldom executed criminal cases, and these people had heard his name to some extent, so they dismissed the rascals indifferently. He didn't think that Lu Ji was not an unprincipled and soft-hearted person, and he didn't have that much patience to deal with these rascals.

Those few people thought he was joking at first, when a few yamen servants came over with water and fire sticks, they separated the three of them with two blows.

"You guys are beating yourself up..."

The leader still wanted to fight, but he didn't want to say a word before he was beaten to the ground by a water and fire stick from the yamen servant. He was thinking about getting up, and two other yamen servants crossed the two water and fire sticks On the sides of his neck, force him to lie on his stomach.

When the strong board hit the three of them, they realized that the Shuntian Fu Yin, who looked like a white-faced scholar, was also a ruthless character.

When these three people were caught by Wu Zhiyu and others, they had already been kicked and beaten for a while, and there were many major and minor injuries on their bodies.

"My lord, have mercy! I'm recruiting!"

Before the yamen servants beat them a few times, the three of them couldn't bear the pain and wanted to confess one after another.

Lu Ji winked, and the yamen servant in charge of laying the board stopped first.

The three of them were sweating coldly from the pain, and one of them was injured before, and he couldn't speak now.

The leader grinned his teeth in pain and said: "In fact, we all take money to do things, and we will help whoever pays. Today, the three of us brothers just got a generous reward, so we went to drink today. Before we had had a drink or two, someone came to us and told us to lie in ambush in Yinping Lane at [-]:[-] pm. When we saw a carriage with a broken wheel, we would go up and beat people. Don't hurt people, just subdue them. But, then the girl in the car was free to deal with us. The man also said, we must let the handsome man in the car see with his own eyes how that girl was raped by us."
