The world of film and television begins from childhood

Mei Changsu was relieved when he saw Zhou Chen caught Xie Yu. This was the best situation.

Seeing everyone stop, Zhou Chen said to Xie Yu: "Lord Xie, you lose tonight, let your soldiers retreat."

Xie Yu is worthy of being a hero of his generation. When he was suddenly captured by Zhou Chen, he was very frightened at first, but now he has calmed down.

He did not listen to Zhou Chen's words and let his soldiers retreat. Instead, he said disdainfully: "I am a first-rank military marquis of the court. You are a Jianghu person. Do you dare to kill me?"

Zhou Chen smiled: "You're pretty tough, let me see, who's tougher, your words or my sword."

As he spoke, he moved his wrist and the blade slashed across Xie Yu's neck, leaving a bloody mark, and blood flowed along the blade.

Feeling the coldness on his neck, Xie Yu, who had been very calm, suddenly panicked, but he still gritted his teeth and said nothing.

"Brother Yu."

When Xiao Jingrui saw Zhou Chen really taking action, he quickly spoke to stop him: "Brother Yu, don't kill him, don't kill him."

Zhou Chen was not surprised by Xiao Jingrui's obstruction. Xiao Jingrui was just that kind of person. Although Xie Yu was not sincere to him, he also knew the truth.

But after all, he has called Xie Yu father for more than 20 years, and the feelings are not something that can be erased just like that. Especially now that Xie Yu is facing a life-threatening situation, he still can't help but want to save Xie Yu.

Zhou Chen held Xie Yu hostage and said slowly, "Xie Yu, see, this is the 'son' you always wanted to kill. Even when you were deserted by everyone, he still wanted to protect you. For someone like you, you should be content to have a 'son' like Jing Rui who calls you father for more than 20 years."

Xie Yu had a gloomy expression, he knew very well what kind of person Xiao Jingrui was. What made him unhappy was that he, a dignified first-rank marquis, could actually be threatened by a small-time gangster.

"Thank you Lord, let me say it again, let your people disperse, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Young Master Yu, do you really dare to kill me? If you dare to kill me, His Majesty and the court will not let you go, and you and your accomplices will all die without a burial place." Xie Yu threatened sternly.

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Lord Xie, it seems that you really don't understand the people of the martial arts world. Have you ever heard of the saying, 'When a common man gets angry, blood splatters five steps away?' I know how much trouble killing you will bring me; but if you insist on forcing me, I will cut your neck in a fit of rage. At that time, I just need to escape from the capital before the court can react. With my martial arts skills, even if the court wants to catch me, it may not be that easy."

"To take a step back, even if I am caught, my life as a Jianghu person can be exchanged for your life as a first-rank military marquis. It doesn't seem to be a loss, right, Lord Xie?"

Xie Yu's face looked ugly. How could he be willing to trade one for one with Zhou Chen? He was a first-rank military marquis and his status was so noble. How could a gangster like Zhou Chen compete with him?

Zhou Chen asked again in an impatient tone: "I'll ask you one last time, will you give the order?"

As he spoke, he exerted force with his right hand again, and the blade was once again at zero distance against Xie Yu's neck.

Xie Yu couldn't bear it anymore and said coldly: "Put the knife away so I can talk."

Zhou Chen moved the blade slightly away from Xie Yu, and Xie Yu let out a breath, then shouted loudly: "Disperse, everyone disperse."

The soldiers around looked at each other, and finally obeyed the order and slowly dispersed the crowd.

"I have asked them to disperse. What else do you want from me?" Xie Yu asked unhappily.

Zhou Chen didn't say anything, and then Mei Changsu suddenly spoke.

"Brother Yu, Lord Xie has committed a crime and should be handed over to the court for punishment. I think it would be best to hand him over to Prince Yu."

Xia Dong quickly retorted, "Mr. Su, this is wrong. You also said that Lord Xie broke the law. If he breaks the law, he should be handed over to our Xuan Jing Division, not to Prince Yu. Although Prince Yu is a prince, he has no right to arrest people at will."

"Lord Xia Dong, if we hand Xie Yu over to your Xuan Jing Division, can you convict him? Only Prince Yu has the ability to bring Xie Yu to justice." Mei Changsu argued.

Xia Dong sneered: "Really? I don't think so."

Xia Chun hurriedly walked to Xia Dong's side and whispered: "Junior sister, Mr. Su is right. It is the best choice to hand Xie Yu over to Prince Yu. If we bring Xie Yu back to our Xuanjing Division, it will be very troublesome."

Xia Dong pretended to be unwilling: "But the order from His Majesty is to bring the murderer before the emperor tomorrow. If I hand Xie Yu over to Prince Yu, how can I report to His Majesty?"

Xia Chun said: "Prince Yu has arrested Xie Yu and will definitely report to His Majesty tomorrow. We will report to His Majesty then and the effect will be the same. His Majesty will definitely not blame us. On the contrary, if Xie Yu's guilt is proven, His Majesty will definitely reward us."

He didn't want to bring Xie Yu, this hot potato, back to Xuan Jing Division, but he was reluctant to give up the credit, so in his opinion, it would be most appropriate to hand it over to Prince Yu.

With Prince Yu leading the way, they don't even need to fan the flames to achieve their goal. Why not do it?

Xia Dong hesitated and said, "But Brother Chun, this is the mission assigned to us by His Majesty. What will happen if we let Prince Yu take it away?"

Xia Chun said angrily, "Junior sister, our mission has been completed. According to what you said, Xie Yu and the Zhuo family are the murderers. As long as the Zhuo family confesses, it will be enough for us. Xie Yu is a hot potato, so let's hand him over to Prince Yu."

Mei Changsu asked with a smile: "Master Xia Dong, Master Xia Chun, have you reached an agreement?"

Xia Chun spoke first: "Mr. Su, you are right. It is the best choice to hand Xie Yu over to Prince Yu."

Mei Changsu nodded, then said to Zhou Chen: "Brother Yu, can you hand Xie Yu over to Prince Yu?"

Zhou Chen said: "I don't care who I give it to, I just want to know if he will be finished after tonight. I don't want to waste my efforts tonight."

Mei Changsu said: "Brother Yu, please rest assured. Xie Yu is finished."

Xie Yu, who was held hostage by Zhou Chen, listened to them casually discussing his affiliation, and even said that he was finished. His eyes were full of coldness.

He was not afraid of Prince Yu, but once he was handed over to Prince Yu, and Prince Yu had a witness like Zhuo Dingfeng, the evidence of his guilt would be set in stone.

But he has not despaired yet, because he still has a trump card. As long as he can wait until that person comes back alive, he will have a chance to survive.

So now he didn't argue with Mei Changsu and others, as if he had accepted his fate and let Zhou Chen control him.

Mei Changsu said to Meng Zhi, "Commander-in-Chief Meng, if you don't mind, I would like to trouble you to take Lord Xie into custody."

Meng Zhi said without hesitation: "No problem, Xie Yu is guilty of a heinous crime, I will not let him get away with it."

As he said that, he took over the control of Xie Yu from Zhou Chen. Xie Yu wanted to resist, but his martial arts were far inferior to Meng Zhi's, and Meng Zhi was not polite at all.

Mei Changsu said again: "Now that we have finished here, it should be over outside as well. Commander Meng, Lord Xia Dong, Lord Xia Chun, let's go out and take a look."

Then he said to Zhuo Dingfeng and others: "Master Zhuo, if you want Xie Yu to confess his guilt, I'm afraid you will need his help."

Zhuo Dingfeng remained silent. The shock he experienced tonight was so great that even a tough guy like him had not fully recovered.

Mei Changsu shook his head. He knew that Zhuo Dingfeng had no choice.

"Master Zhuo, rest assured, I will do my best to save your lives."

Zhuo Dingfeng then raised his head, looked at Mei Changsu for a long time, and said in a hoarse voice: "Master Mei, thank you very much."

He didn't care about life or death, but he couldn't bear to see his wife, children, and unborn grandson die, so now he really had no choice but to cooperate.

Led by Mei Changsu, a group of people arrived at the gate of Xie Mansion.

At this moment, Prince Yu's palace soldiers and Ouyang Chi from the patrol camp were confronting each other at the door, and Marquis Yan Que just happened to walk out.

Mei Changsu and his group of people came out and immediately changed their position, especially when they saw that Xie Yu was still controlled by Meng Zhi.

Prince Yu was overjoyed, while Ouyang Chi put his hand on the hilt of the knife. As for Yan Que, he looked at this scene in great surprise. He was about to force his way in, but he didn't expect that it ended first.

Zhou Chen didn't care about the situation outside the mansion, and didn't follow. He knew Mei Changsu would handle it.

He walked to Gong Yu and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Gong Yu shook her head and said softly, "I'm fine. I just got help from Master Yan."

Zhou Chen thanked Yan Yujin who was standing beside him: "Yujin, thank you so much for what I just did. I hope you are not hurt."

Yan Yujin said: "As I should, I'm fine, but Jing Rui..."

He was an extremely smart man. From what had happened before, he guessed that what happened today was probably instigated by Mei Changsu. Zhou Chen and Gong Yu obviously knew the inside story as well, and they must have cooperated with Mei Changsu for revenge.

But after listening to Gong Yu's story and Xie Yu's treatment of Xiao Jingrui and the Zhuo family, he felt that Zhou Chen and the others had done nothing wrong and that Xie Yu deserved it.

However, his best friend Xiao Jingrui was implicated because of this, which was what made him most unbearable and unhappy.

Zhou Chen followed Yan Yujin's gaze and saw Xiao Jingrui standing alone beside him, his eyes red and his hands trembling slightly, looking heartbroken.

He is also responsible for Xiao Jingrui becoming like this. Although he will not regret it, as a friend, what he did this time was indeed not very authentic.

If he went there now, it would probably only have the opposite effect, so he said to Yan Yujin, "Yujin, what I did today may have hurt Jingrui. Go and comfort him, and also say sorry for me. I don't think I did anything wrong, but I really feel sorry for him."

Yan Yujin sighed and said, "You can't be blamed for this, Brother Yu. Miss Gong Yu is actually a victim as well. But what happened today did cause a lot of stress to Jing Rui. I don't know how to comfort him. Forget it, I'll go and try."

Chapter 851: A generation of heroes, Xie Yu ends

This night was destined to be restless. Although the fighting had ended, Marquis Xie's mansion was still bustling with activity.

Xie Yu had been handed over to Prince Yu's men by Meng Zhi for guarding. Prince Yu took this opportunity very seriously, and of course he wanted to tie Xie Yu to his belt to feel at ease. He directly ordered hundreds of soldiers from the palace to keep an eye on Xie Yu, not giving him any chance to escape.

Princess Li Yang did not react much when Xie Yu was captured, but after seeing Prince Yu, she acted like her aunt, the eldest princess.

The eldest princess is such a person, as the saying goes, the loved one has nothing to fear, and she is like this to Xie Yu.

She definitely had feelings for Xie Yu, but it was not true love. It was more of a family affection and responsibility that came from living together for more than 20 years.

However, although Princess Li Yang did not plead for Xie Yu, she did plead for the Zhuo family, asking Prince Yu to save the lives of the Zhuo family at all costs, otherwise she would never let Prince Yu succeed.

Prince Yu was not dissatisfied with this. He had no interest in the Zhuo family in the first place. As long as the Zhuo family was willing to cooperate with him and bring Xie Yu down, whether they lived or died would be a matter of a word from him. It would be easy to do.

Princess Li Yang is the current emperor's younger sister after all. Even if it is just to give her face, he will agree to let the Zhuo family go.

After receiving Prince Yu's reply, Princess Li Yang stepped forward and walked up to the three people from the Zhuo family with a heavy face.

She first looked at Mrs. Zhuo, but Mrs. Zhuo turned her head away and didn't look at her at all. So she looked at Zhuo Dingfeng, who also remained silent. Finally, she could only turn to Zhuo Qingyao. Facing this noble mother-in-law, Zhuo Qingyao moved her lips, but in the end did not say a word.

She was filled with guilt and said with a choked voice, "I am a selfish person. For the sake of my son, I have lied to you for so many years. Now I have no words to defend myself. But my little daughter Qi'er is innocent. She has been married to your Zhuo family. Even if you two have no old feelings for my husband and me, please treat her well for the sake of the child."

Zhuo Qingyao looked upset. In fact, he was the most conflicted one among the three members of the Zhuo family, because his wife was the daughter of the enemy who killed his brother. Because of Xie Yu, the couple could never return to their previous love.

Although Madam Zhuo was very dissatisfied with Xie Yu and Princess Li Yang, she was very open-minded at this time and said, "The Zhuo family is a family of Jianghu people. They only know how to distinguish between gratitude and resentment and not to involve the younger generation. Qi'er is the daughter-in-law of my Zhuo family. If she can return with her son one day, she will naturally be treated as she deserves. Princess, don't worry about this matter."

After saying this, she no longer paid attention to Princess Li Yang, as if she felt uncomfortable saying any more words to her.

At this time, Zhou Chen and Gong Yu came over, and Gong Yu knelt down in front of the Zhuo couple.

"Your son died at the hands of my father. This sin is hard to erase. Since I can seek revenge on Xie Yu, you can also seek revenge on me. This is the cycle of nature, and I have no complaints."

"It's just that the child is innocent. I hope Master Zhuo and Madam Zhuo can give Gong Yu a year. After my child is born, Master Zhuo can come and seek revenge on me at any time."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on Gong Yu.

Gong Yu was definitely the most crucial link in Xie Yu's downfall today. If she hadn't stepped in, the Xie and Zhuo families would never have turned against each other so easily.

The Zhuo couple did have resentment in their hearts, but they were also open-minded people. Especially when they heard Gong Yu say that she was pregnant, Mrs. Zhuo's eyes flashed with astonishment.

Meng Zhi and Xia Dong also reacted. No wonder Mei Changsu told them to protect Gong Yu during the chaos just now. They thought it was just because Gong Yu was Zhou Chen's woman, but they didn't expect such a situation to happen.

Madam Zhuo sighed and said, "If your father were still alive, I would have killed him at the ends of the earth, but he is already dead. As for you, you were not yet born. Even if I hate you so much, how much can I get rid of it by taking your life? What's more, I have already lost a son, and I cannot bear to see another child lose his mother. We will not seek revenge on you."

Gong Yu didn't say anything, but bowed solemnly and then stepped behind Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen then stepped forward and said, "Master Zhuo, Madam Zhuo, Gong Yu is mine. I am grateful that you can forgive her. If you need me in the future, I will definitely help you with all my strength."

Master Zhuo nodded at Zhou Chen and said, "Thank you very much."

Today he also witnessed Zhou Chen's martial arts power, and he thought to himself that even if he was in his prime, he might not be Zhou Chen's opponent, especially since their Zhuo family has fallen to this point. If he could be friends with Zhou Chen, he would be willing to do so.

Zhou Chen was about to leave with Gong Yu, but after taking a few steps, he stopped, thought about it, and walked to Xiao Jingrui's side.

"Jing Rui, I know you are very sad today and have a lot of confusion in your heart. I shouldn't have told you this, but I still want to remind you. Tonight's events are very serious, especially because of the falling out between the Xie and Zhuo families. Your sister Xie Qi is pregnant and about to give birth. She will definitely be greatly stimulated. As a doctor, I know that this situation can easily cause premature birth, so for your sister's safety, you'd better prepare in advance."

"I'm not bragging. My medical skills are definitely very good. If there is an accident, you can come to me."

After saying that, without waiting for Xiao Jingrui to speak, he took Gong Yu away, leaving Xiao Jingrui staring at Zhou Chen's departing back in shock.

What happened today did give him a great shock, and he was indeed dissatisfied with his good friends, Mei Changsu and Zhou Chen, who caused the incident tonight.

Especially Mei Changsu, how could he not figure out now that all this was probably the result of Mei Changsu's calculations.

As for Zhou Chen, although he also had dissatisfaction, he was much better than Mei Changsu.

What Zhou Chen said made sense. Since it concerned the safety of his own sister, he kept Zhou Chen's words in mind.

When Zhou Chen passed by Mei Changsu, he whispered, "I'll take Gong Yu back first. I won't go to your place tonight."

Mei Changsu nodded. He knew what Zhou Chen meant. He would definitely meet Prince Jing tonight. Zhou Chen didn't want to meet Prince Jing, so he didn't go.

On the way back, Gong Yu seemed to have done something wrong. He kept his head down and didn't say a word.

Zhou Chen felt strange and asked, "Gong Yu, what's wrong? Are you still feeling uncomfortable after getting your revenge?"

Gong Yu raised her head and shook it, saying, "No, it's what I just said to the Zhuo family. I told them that I'm pregnant. Will it have any impact on you?"

Seeing that Gong Yu was silent because of this matter, Zhou Chen immediately laughed.

"What are you thinking? How could I blame you for something like this? You are my woman, and you have my child. It's not something shameful."

"Sir, you don't blame me?"

Looking at Gong Yu's adorable appearance, Zhou Chen reached out and gently stroked his cheek.

"Don't think too much. This child is the best gift God has given us. It's just that I can't disclose his identity right now. Otherwise, I will definitely let everyone know that I, Zhou Chen, have a child. Gong Yu, this child may be my only child, so he is very important. But to me, you are more important. You are the one who can accompany me until old age."

"Although we haven't officially gotten married yet, we are husband and wife. From now on, you don't have to call me Master. Just call me Husband."

Gong Yu was deeply moved by Zhou Chen's words. She leaned on Zhou Chen's shoulder and said softly, "I still prefer to call you Master. Gong Yu will always be Master's Gong Yu. I am also willing to grow old with you. Whether we live or die, I want to be by your side."
