We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?

In the vineyard, Xi Yu put her hands on her hips, frowned, looked at the man with a puzzled look, and asked anxiously: "How could the old man owe money?"

Her eyes revealed confusion and doubt.

The man frowned slightly, his eyes evaded.

He turned his head away and replied coldly: "What does this have to do with you?"

There was a hint of impatience in his voice.

Xi Yu widened her eyes and asked anxiously: "Old man, what is going on?" Her face was full of worry and confusion.

The old man sighed, frowned, and told the story helplessly: "That man, he got me drunk once, and then forced me to write an IOU. In fact, he just wanted my vineyard!" His eyes were full of helplessness and sadness.

Xiyu was so angry that her face flushed after hearing what the old man said. She stared at the man with her eyes wide open and asked loudly: "What's wrong with you? How can you do such a despicable thing!"

The man raised his mouth corners and showed a sneer. He looked at Xiyu provocatively and said disdainfully: "That's it, so what? The old man's IOU is in my hand."

The old man was helpless, waved his hand gently, and said to Xiyu with a sigh: "Young man, you'd better not mind this matter. I appreciate your kindness."

Xiyu looked firm, looked at the old man without flinching, and said firmly: "No, I will take care of this matter today!"

Tuoba Yu frowned and said to Xiyu in a somewhat anxious tone: "Xiyu, you'd better take out the token quickly!"

Her eyes were fixed on Xiyu.

The man and the old man were stunned after hearing what Tuoba Yu said, and their faces showed surprise.

The man narrowed his eyes, looked up and down at Xi Yu, and thought to himself: Could this man have some special identity?

The old man touched his chin, looking puzzled, his eyes full of doubts and confusion.

Xi Yu nodded slightly, then slowly took out the token, her eyes were firm and confident, looking at the man and the old man, and whispered: "I am the prime minister of the current dynasty."

The man and the old man turned pale instantly when they heard it, their bodies trembled involuntarily, and fine beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.

The man opened his eyes wide in horror, his legs softened, and he knelt down with a "thump", stammering: "Prime Minister, I have offended you without knowing the real man, please forgive me!"

His face was full of fear and regret.

The old man also knelt down quickly and kowtowed continuously.

Xi Yu frowned, his eyes were sharp as a knife, staring at the man in front of him, and said sternly: "Tell the truth quickly! Otherwise, you know the consequences!"

The man trembled all over, with a horrified expression on his face.

He lowered his head, not daring to look at Xi Yu, and said helplessly: "Yes... I wronged the old man in order to get the vineyard. I got him drunk with wine and made him put his fingerprints on the IOU..."

When saying this, the man's eyes dodged, not daring to look at Xi Yu, and his voice also carried a trace of guilt and regret.

Xi Yu heard this and his face became even darker. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words from his teeth: "You are so despicable!"

The man lowered his head, a look of pain appeared on his face, tears rolled in his eyes: "I know I was wrong, I was bewildered for a while, so I did such a thing..."

Xi Yu glared at the man, his chest heaving violently. He suppressed his anger and said word by word: "You will pay the price for what you did!"

At this time, the man's body trembled slightly, as if he was shocked by Xi Yu's momentum. He knew that he could not escape responsibility and could only bear it all silently.

The old man's wrinkled face was full of grievances and expectations. He looked at Xi Yu and said in a trembling voice: "Prime Minister, you have to make the decision for me!"

Xi Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes were serious and cold, he looked at the man and asked: "Then tell me, how should this matter be handled?"

The man lowered his head, not daring to look at Xi Yu's eyes, and whispered: "Tear up the IOU, I have to compensate the old man a little money..."

Xi Yu turned his head to look at the old man, frowned slightly, and asked: "Old man, do you think this is okay?"

The old man's worry on his face dissipated a little, he nodded and said: "Okay, as long as he can recognize his mistakes, this is also okay."

Xi Yu took a deep breath, looked at the man, and said: "Then why don't you do it quickly!"

The man was relieved and hurried to fulfill his promise.

After a while, the man hurried over, holding the IOU tightly in his hand.

He walked in front of everyone, his face flushed, and awkwardly unfolded the IOU, and tore it up fiercely in front of everyone.

Then, he took out some money from his pocket and put it on the ground.

Xi Yu looked at him, his eyes still stern, and said: "Look at you, for a little personal gain, you actually did such a heinous thing! I hope this is the last time, don't do such a thing again in the future, otherwise you will bear the consequences!"

The man lowered his head, not daring to look Xiyu in the face, with a look of shame on his face. He whispered, "I know I was wrong, and I will never do it again."

Xiyu sighed, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'll let you go this time, let's go."

The man was as if pardoned, quickly picked up the money on the ground, and left in disgrace.

The old man walked forward excitedly, grabbed Xiyu's arm tightly with both hands, his eyes full of gratitude, and said in a trembling voice: "Xiyu, thank you so much! If it weren't for you, my old bones would be miserable!" As he said that, he actually knelt on his knees.

Seeing this, Xiyu quickly stretched out his hands to help the old man up, with an anxious look on his face, and said, "Old man, please don't do this, this is what I should do."

The old man stood up and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Xiyu looked at Tuoba Yu and said, "Let's go." Then he turned around and left with Tuoba Yu.

The old man followed Xiyu and Tuoba Yu and sent them to the door.

He said reluctantly: "Prime Minister, you are leaving now. If the grapes are ripe now, I will pick some for you."

Xiyu turned around with a smile, looked at the old man, waved his hand and said: "Old man, you are too polite, don't bother."

The old man's face was full of sincerity, and he said: "What's the trouble? You helped me so much, I am really grateful."

"We appreciate your kindness, please take care of yourself."

After that, Xiyu and Tuoba Yu turned and left. The old man stood there, looking at their backs until they disappeared.

Xiyu and Tuoba Yu walked side by side, enjoying this leisurely time. Until the afterglow of dusk fell on them, Tuoba Yu said softly: "Prime Minister, I am a little tired, we should leave."

Xiyu nodded, and walked towards the direction of the bicycle with Tuoba Yu.

When they came to the bicycle, they saw several ruffian men standing there.

The leading man raised a wicked smile, his eyes wandered wantonly on Tuoba Yu, and said: "Hey, isn't this a beauty?"

Then he looked at Xiyu.

"You leave alone, let this lady play with us."

His words were full of greed and ill intentions, and the other men also laughed.

Xiyu's face suddenly became gloomy, he clenched his fists tightly, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly: "Don't even think about it!"

Tuoba Yu frowned slightly, with a look of disgust on her face, and she leaned towards Xiyu.

The men smiled maliciously and slowly approached Xiyu and Tuoba Yu. They were rubbing their hands, their eyes full of evil desires.

Xiyu protected Tuoba Yu behind him and whispered to her: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

His eyes were firm and sharp.

Tuoba Yu smiled slightly, with a look of disdain on her face, and said: "The person who scares me has not appeared yet."

Her voice was crisp and firm, and her eyes flashed with confidence.

Just then, a black shadow flashed like a ghost, and Xi Yu's secret guards appeared in front of them.

Tuoba Yu was startled by this sudden situation, her body trembled slightly, her eyes widened, and her face was full of surprise.

But she quickly reacted, and her eyes became firm and sharp.

She moved her body and rushed towards the men like lightning, shouting at the same time: "Come just in time, let you see how powerful I am!"

The secret guards also quickly joined the battle. They were agile and swift, and fought fiercely with the men.

Tuoba Yu was seen moving lightly between the men. She used her fists and feet, and every attack was powerful, knocking the men all over the place.

The secret guards cooperated well, both offensively and defensively, and trapped the men tightly, making it impossible for them to escape.

After a while, the ruffians were knocked to the ground, groaning in pain, unable to move.

Xi Yu looked at Tuoba Yu's high martial arts in the battle, his eyes full of surprise and admiration.

Only then did he realize that Tuoba Yu was so strong that the secret guards seemed redundant in comparison.

The secret guards stood aside, a little embarrassed.

The men who were knocked to the ground begged for mercy in fear at this time.

"Forgive us! We won't dare to do it again!"

Tuoba Yu looked at them expressionlessly, her eyes were as cold as ice, and said: "You have done many evil things, unforgivable!"

After that, she flashed and came to the men in an instant. With a flash of cold light in her hand, she killed them all directly.

Her movements were clean and neat, without any dragging, and there was a touch of determination and indifference on her face.

Tuoba Yu stood beside the corpses and turned to look at Xi Yu with a questioning look in her eyes.

She slowly said, "Prime Minister, are you happy with my handling of the matter?"

Xi Yu frowned slightly, with a complicated expression on his face. He was silent for a moment, but finally nodded.

His voice was low and helpless.

"Although I don't like killing people, they deserve it. If you do this, I will agree."

After listening to Xiyu's words, Tuoba Yu showed a barely perceptible smile on his face, and there seemed to be a hint of relief in that smile.

Xiyu took Tuoba Yu's hand and said, "Let's go back."

After returning to the vicinity of the Prime Minister's Mansion, both of them felt their stomachs growling.

Xiyu looked at Tuoba Yu and said with a smile, "You must be hungry. I'll take you to the restaurant for dinner."

Tuoba Yu showed a happy expression on his face and said, "Okay, let's go quickly."

Xiyu took Tuoba Yu to the restaurant, and the two found a quiet place to sit down.

Xiyu looked at the menu, frowned slightly, and seemed to be thinking about what to order.

Tuoba Yu looked around curiously, his eyes full of expectations.

On the other side, Tuoba Lu and Tian Chong walked slowly with a few followers.

As night fell, they came to the inn and settled down.

Tuoba Lu sat at the table, picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and looked in the direction of the shopkeeper.

I saw the shopkeeper's daughter walking around busily, with a graceful figure and a beautiful face.

Tuoba Lu put down the teacup, turned his head to look at Tian Chong, with a greedy look on his face, and said: "Tian Chong, look at the shopkeeper's daughter, she is so beautiful, I want to get her, you think of a way."

There was a light of desire in his eyes, and a barely perceptible smirk on the corner of his mouth.

Tian Chong frowned, looked at Tuoba Lu, then looked at the girl, and said, "This... is not good, the leader should not mess around."

Tuoba Lu did not think so, waved his hand, and said, "What are you afraid of? Just think of a way. After the matter is done, you will have your benefits."

Tian Chong slowly walked to the girl, watching her carefully wiping the table, and asked with a smile, "Miss, what's your name?"

The girl raised her head, blinked, and whispered, "My name is Xiao Cui."

Tian Chong nodded and said, "Miss Xiao Cui, our master invites you to come over."

Xiao Cui put down the rag in her hand with some doubts, and followed Tian Chong to Tuoba Lu's room.

Tuoba Lu sat on the chair, and when he saw Xiao Cui coming in, his face immediately showed a greedy light, and his eyes wandered wantonly on Xiao Cui.

Xiao Cui was startled by his eyes, and a horrified expression appeared on her face.

Seeing this, Tian Chong immediately closed the door, turned around and left, leaving Tuoba Lu and Xiao Cui in the room. Tuoba Lu stood up and walked towards Xiao Cui step by step, with a more evil smile on his face...

Xiao Cui was shocked when she saw the greedy expression on Tuoba Lu's face, and turned around and ran out in panic.

Tuoba Lu rushed forward and hugged Xiao Cui fiercely, saying, "Little beauty, don't run away, come and let me take good care of you."

His face was full of lewd smiles, and his eyes were full of madness.

Xiao Cui struggled desperately and shouted in fear: "Let me go! Let me go!"

Tuoba Lu covered her mouth tightly to prevent her from making any sound, and smiled evilly: "It's useless for you to shout, no one here can save you."

Xiao Cui's eyes were full of despair and fear.

The shopkeeper heard the sound and prepared to go to the room.

Suddenly, Tian Chong ran over and immediately blocked his way.

"Shopkeeper, my son has something to do, I hope you don't come over."

"Let me go, don't stop me. I heard my daughter screaming."

Tian Chong still stopped him.

At this time, the shopkeeper realized that this man was in cahoots with the person who harmed his daughter.

The shopkeeper screamed.

A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Tian Chong's eyes.

He clenched his fists tightly, viciously.

In order for the leader to enjoy better, he had to kill the shopkeeper.

As he said, he walked towards the shopkeeper with a ferocious smile on his face.

The shopkeeper saw Tian Chong coming over, opened his eyes in horror, and said in a trembling voice: "You...what do you want to do? Don't mess around!"

However, Tian Chong ignored the shopkeeper's plea for mercy. He stretched out his hands and strangled the shopkeeper's neck hard.

The shopkeeper's face turned red. He struggled to break free from Tian Chong's restraints, but Tian Chong was too strong. In the end, the shopkeeper stopped struggling, his eyes rolled back, and he died.

Tuoba Lu had an obscene smile on his lips.

He held Xiao Cui in his arms and strode to the bed, with a malicious light flashing in his eyes.

Xiao Cui was terrified and struggled desperately. She begged in a trembling voice: "Let me go, don't do this..."

However, Tuoba Lu ignored Xiao Cui's pleas for mercy. He threw Xiao Cui on the bed and pounced on her.

Xiao Cui's tears flowed like a flood, and her eyes were full of despair and sadness.

Tuoba Lu originally frowned, his face was full of sorrow, and he was in an extremely depressed mood.

However, at this moment, an excited smile suddenly appeared on his face, and his eyes flashed with joy. He murmured to himself: "Finally, I can vent."

Tian Chong dragged the body of the shopkeeper, and sweat oozed from his forehead.

His expression was somewhat helpless and bitter, and he sighed softly: "I don't want to do this, but in order to make the leader happy, this is the only way."

As he said, he took the body to a secret corner with great effort.

Tuoba Lu hurriedly put on his clothes, his face was a little flustered. While tying his belt, he looked at Xiao Cui who was crying constantly, and whispered: "Come with me, I will take you away from here."

Xiao Cui curled up in the corner, her body trembling constantly, and tears flowing like a spring.

She just cried silently, without responding to Tuoba Lu's words, her eyes were full of despair and sadness.

Soon, Tuoba Lu tidied his clothes and hurried out of the house.

Tian Chong hurriedly came up, his face was a little nervous, his eyes flickered, and he lowered his voice to tell the story of strangling the shopkeeper.

After listening, Tuoba Lu nodded slightly, showing a look of satisfaction on his face, but then he restrained himself and said calmly: "You did a good job, but let's leave quickly to avoid unnecessary trouble." He looked around, as if observing whether there was any danger around.

Tuoba Lu and Tian Chong hurriedly packed their luggage and prepared to go to another inn.

They looked a little nervous and anxious.

Xiao Cui hid in the corner of the room, trembling, with fear and helplessness in her eyes.

After Tuoba Lu and Tian Chong left, she slowly walked out.

She looked around and found that the shopkeeper had disappeared. (End of this chapter)
