Chapter 23 Tie Chuanjia's injustice is redressed; Gu Yu teases a beauty at the teahouse.
Upon hearing Zhao Zhengyi's admission, Gongsun Yu, who had the most volatile temper, was the first to jump up and angrily curse, "You son of a bitch, how dare you come here to uphold justice?"
"Kill this old scoundrel and avenge Brother Weng!"
"This old scoundrel deserves to be torn to pieces to atone for his crimes!"
Just as the crowd was filled with indignation, Gu Yu smiled and said, "Please calm down, everyone. Zhao Zhengyi is not the murderer."
"What? He's not the murderer?"
"But he himself admitted it."
Gu Yu smiled and said, "That's right, he did admit it, but he's definitely not the murderer. Just like Tie Chuanjia, he had no choice but to confess under your pressure."
At this moment, Afei had already sheathed his sword.
Zhao Zhengyi looked completely lost and staggered away, as if he had aged ten years in an instant.
After this incident, this old guy will probably never have the face to show his face in the underworld again.
Aunt Weng said coldly, "Does this young hero mean that we forced Tie Chuanjia to confess, that we wronged him, and that he had no choice but to admit it?"
That's just how it is.
Eighth Brother Ximen Lie retorted, unconvinced, "If he has grievances, why doesn't he speak up himself?"
Yi Minghu frowned, turned around and said to Tie Chuanjia, "Tie Chuanjia, if you think my brother has wronged you, now is the perfect time to explain in front of the two young heroes."
Tie Chuanjia gritted his teeth, remained silent for a while, and finally said, "I have nothing to explain, Young Master Yu, Young Master Fei, I'm sorry, I have let you down."
At this moment, the fourth brother, Jin Fengbai, moved his lips slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but his expression was somewhat hesitant.
"Ugh!"
Gu Yu sighed.
"Actually, Tie Chuanjia didn't speak up precisely because he values loyalty. You call yourselves the Eight Righteous Men of the Central Plains, but clearly some of you know the hidden truth about the Weng Family Village massacre. Why don't you dare to step forward?"
"What?"
"Who knows the truth?"
"It's me!"
Finally, the fourth brother, Jin Fengbai, stepped forward.
He had been hesitant, his mind wavering. Now that Gu Yu had brought it up directly, he had no choice but to speak.
"The fourth one?"
"What exactly happened?"
"Ah Fei, let's go out first and wait for them to talk."
Gu Yu raised his hand to A Fei, and the two walked out of the courtyard together.
After they left, Jin Fengbai finally said in a trembling voice, "I've kept this in my heart for eighteen years, and I've never dared to say it."
"Fourth brother, hurry up and tell me!"
"Second brother, back then, Brother Weng was generous and always helped those in need, but... but even the largest fortune can't withstand such spending. Helpless, Brother... Brother Weng secretly committed some robbery."
"Such a thing really happened?"
The group looked somewhat incredulous.
Upon hearing Jin Fengbai's words, Tie Chuanjia sighed, "Brother Jin is right. Back then, a friend of mine was in charge of this case and asked me to befriend Brother Weng and secretly gather evidence."
"However, after we got to know each other, I realized that Brother Weng was a true man, so how could I possibly betray him? I didn't speak up before because I didn't want to ruin Brother Weng's reputation..."
Upon hearing this, Yi Minghu couldn't help but kneel down on the ground with a "thump!"
"So that's how it is! Chuanjia, we've wronged you. On behalf of our brothers, I kowtow and apologize!"
Tie Chuanjia hurriedly said, "Second Brother Yi, you absolutely mustn't!"
At this moment, Aunt Weng, Gongsun Yu, and their group also knelt down, sobbing uncontrollably.
They never expected that Tie Chuanjia would be such a staunch and courageous man, willing to die rather than reveal the truth about the bloody incident from back then, in order to protect Weng Tianjie's reputation.
They kept accusing Tie Chuanjia of being ungrateful, but in the end, they were the ones who were ungrateful.
[Completely reverse Tie Chuanjia's fate and gain 300 Fate Points]
Outside the courtyard, a message flashed through Gu Yu's mind, and he knew that Tie Chuanjia's matter had been properly resolved.
He tossed a letter into the courtyard.
By the time Tie Chuanjia ran out of the courtyard, Gu Yu and the other person were nowhere to be seen.
"Sigh, I wonder how the young master is doing?"
Tie Chuanjia sighed, thought for a moment, and finally couldn't help but head towards Xingyun Manor.
Little did he know that Li Xunhuan had already set off.
This time, Li Xunhuan was escorted to Shaolin Temple by Tian Qi, Gongsun Moyun, Shaolin Temple Elder Xinmei, and several Shaolin disciples.
Although Long Xiaoyun had already pinned the title of "Plum Blossom Thief" on Li Xunhuan.
However, to gain the trust of people in the martial arts world, it still needs to be confirmed by prestigious sects like Shaolin Temple before being made public.
There was an open-air teahouse by the official road, with a few tables of tea drinkers sitting scattered around.
As usual, the old man Tianji asked and answered questions with his granddaughter, and began to talk about things in the martial arts world.
"Speaking of the Miao region's Paradise Cave..."
After saying half a sentence, the old man suddenly stopped, and the muscles on his face twitched.
"Grandpa, what a coincidence!"
Gu Yu walked over with a smile and plopped down on the bench to Sun Xiaohong's left.
"It's you again!"
Sun Xiaohong gritted her teeth.
"It's me again! Ugh, I've been walking all day and I'm dying of thirst!"
Before Sun Xiaohong could react, Gu Yu picked up the tea in front of her and gulped it down.
The Old Man of Heavenly Secrets: "..."
"You...you..."
Sun Xiaohong was so embarrassed and angry that she couldn't speak.
"It smells so good!"
Gu Yu put down his teacup, wiped the tea stains from the corner of his mouth, and looked happy.
Sun Xiaohong stomped her foot: "You...you're a scoundrel!"
Gu Yu called out, "Boss, two more bowls of tea, please!"
Then, looking at Sun Xiaohong, he revealed a charming smile: "That's why I say she's my future wife. I run into her everywhere I go."
Sun Xiaohong clenched her fists and waved them a few times in anger, saying fiercely, "You're not allowed to call me wife!"
"I didn't call you 'wife,' I called you 'future wife'!"
"Grandpa, this guy is bullying me!"
To everyone's surprise, the old man seemed not to hear him at all, and slowly lit his pipe.
People in the martial arts world only know that "Bai Xiaosheng" is omniscient and omnipotent.
Few people know that although the Sun family has always kept a low profile, they possess a vast intelligence network and a unique way of transmitting intelligence.
Otherwise, how would the Old Man of Heavenly Secrets know so many secrets of the martial arts world?
Unfortunately, he couldn't find out anything about Gu Yu's background.
This kid seems to have appeared out of nowhere.
But for some reason, from the very first time they met, he had a strange fondness for the little guy.
"See, the old man has no objections."
Gu Yu looked delighted and said to Sun Xiaohong.
"Bang!"
At that moment, a bearded man slammed his hand on the table and stood up abruptly.
"Kid, what kind of skill is it to bully an old man and a woman?"
Gu Yu glanced at the other person and laughed, "I'm talking to my future wife. Aren't you being a bit nosy, friend?"
"Bullshit! That girl already said she's not your wife, why are you still clinging to her?"
Before Gu Yu could speak, Sun Xiaohong glanced at the man and said, "This is between him and me, and it's none of anyone else's business."
"Ha, so you think my good intentions were a waste?"
The bearded man sneered and sat down again.
Sun Xiaohong turned her head again, glared at Gu Yu who was smiling, and said, "Don't be so smug. I'm not speaking up for you. This is my own business, and I don't want to rely on others."
"Yes, yes, yes, it's our own business, we should handle it ourselves, no need for outsiders to meddle."
Sun Xiaohong: "..."
She had a slight headache.
But for some reason, I felt a sweet warmth in my heart.
Perhaps this is what love feels like, but she just doesn't want to admit it.
